Okay, so before we get into this Let me kind of share with you guys what we got going on this weekend for Memorial Day weekend

I brought something very unique that I've never shown and I found it, I don't even know how I found it yesterday. I found my Army greens. No way. Yeah, I found it. Do you still fit in that? Are you serious? Oh, there's no way.

There's no way in the world. Check this out. What? Yeah. That sounds like a museum. By the way, I found this and you know how crazy this is. It's so, I'm like, where's my name tag? Because in the army they made a mistake with my name tag If you go in look at the way they spell my name check this out. Can you see it?

That David that Davids not that David that David David And this is the uniform that I was just a regular specialist at the hunter first airborne division Why am I showing you this? Wow, I even bad. I even brought my coin from my unit. Let me see if I brought it. I think I brought it. How long were you airborne? I was in the Army, two and a half years. I didn't do long enough, but it was the greatest experience for me.

I don't have the coin. What the Army did to me is the following. I liked America. The Army made me fall in love with America. The Army made me realize what Memorial Day weekend was all about I saw grown men and women Standing in uniform emotional. I'm like, why are they emotional because they lost their friends Who put their lives on the line is the ultimate cost for you and I and

You know the more and more I was in the army for me at least some people have different experiences the more and more I just was like this is the greatest country in the world. I'm so proud. I remember the first day, what's the movie that came out? What is the movie with Tom Hanks, who was in it, Saving Private Ryan. And they come and they said, there's a movie about your unit and your division, 600. I just got to 101st Airborne Division.

You're the first to watch it before this goes live. We're in the audience and we watch it saving you. Dude, 600 of us are crying in tears saying, America's the greatest country.

Adam, why don't you start us off? The first thing you said when we came in you said I don't know why we're no longer playing the Pledge of Allegiance in school, right? Yeah, tell us about it. Well This weekend is Memorial Day and we've covered this on the podcast before the Wall Street Journal the decline of traditional values Yeah in America and this bothers the hell out of me Rob. You know, you have that I think it's on slack and they covered basically five Traditions values that we value here in America number one is patriotism number two is religion Number three is having children which Vinnie and I are working on some more than others number four is community involvement

number five is money What bothers me the most, do you know which of all these things, these five things had the highest score going back to 1990? Kids, money, community involvement, religion, patriotism. Do you know which one? Which one? Patriotism. 70% of Americans had a quote unquote, very high important view of patriotism. That of all those five things have

plummeted the most. Now you can make an argument, well religion, you know the fastest growing religion in America is what? Atheism, agnosticism, whatever, you know people are waiting longer to have kids. I think the fastest growing religion in America to be honest with you is LGBTQ. That's true. I'm being honest with you. Woke is a fundamentalist religion. And that's exactly right. It really is. And by the way, when you start talking about being traditional, like you just said, what you are labeled now is far right. They have hijacked the narrative. People get behind narratives. It's the story you tell. That's really what it's about. And you have to take back that story.

You've gotta fight. You've gotta have the intellectual architecture to mount a defense against that. This idea that the United States is a patriarchy and an oppressive imperialist regime is not true. It's actually just not true. You've gotta mount that defense and you've got to do it in a colorful

and even humorous way. The problem with defending tradition is we tend to get very sort of boxy about it where the other side is being plain loose and frivolous with it. I don't know. We've got to take back sort of the the the story and we got to make it Colorful so people can get behind it because they have won that for now, you know who it's you know who it's on though

It's on the parents. Let me explain. So this isn't just wake up and be like I really want to talk about this today I read the Wall Street Journal pretty much every day Pat advocates whether you're left right center That's a great outlet that you can get a lot of information One of the articles I was reading was about a lady called Peggy noon and she's one of the big opinion writers on there Exactly. She wrote an article about American parents need to teach their children to love America and she cited this story from 1900 imagine this happening in New York City today. You ready in 1900 there was is on the heels of the Civil War, you know, two decades after Civil War ended Ulysses S. Grant had just died.

There's a crazy story about Ulysses S. Grant at his funeral. There was four pallbearers, two generals from the Union, two generals from the Confederacy. What a symbol. So they introduced this book into New York State. It was called the Manual for Patriotism for the Use of Public Schools in the State of New York. And essentially what they wanted school system to do is do the Pledge of Allegiance. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, the Republic of which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, you know the deal. Imagine in New York today, the mandating this in New York. The reason they did this was because we have, we're the land of immigrants.

We all come from immigrants, whether it's from Asia, whether it's from the Middle East, whether it's from Latin America, they don't know our culture. They have to come and adapt to our culture. Great. Welcome to America. We don't care where you're from. One rule, love America. And now we're seeing what's happening with this TikTok

generation. Not only do not love America, they don't like America. They hate America. That's right. And it's so weird to me, because it used to be whether you were a Democrat, whether you're Republican. Yeah, I love America. JFK, ask not what your country can do for you. What can you do for your country? We know the speech, the tick tock generation, blame it on China, tick tock, blame it on the Marxist globalists, blame it on the professors at school, blame it on Klaus Schwab, whatever it is. If you're 25 and under, you've grown up to basically hate America. Did I bring back the Pledge of Allegiance? Yeah, my 16 year old daughter, I watched as I tried to educate her try to get her, I watched not only her school,

but mainly she got onto social media. That phone will indoctrinate a child. And before I know it, she's talking about this gender spectrum and things like that. And I, and of course, you know, me, I lost my mind, but I was, I'm battling Google, I'm battling the software engineers and the people that came out of these elite universities.

They've already been indoctrinated. Now they get into a position of power. So that is what's so insidious about this. They started, it's the long march through the institutions. You start with, you start when they're very young. I saw them try to do this with my son in a private school in Santa Monica. It ain't happening to them. Now what's interesting, however,

is that if you look at the 12-year-old kids, like the boys especially, they're pushing back. It's the strangest thing. I'm telling you, my 12-year-old is like, he's a little bit right of Genghis Khan at this point I'm like what happened you know I'm laughing exactly what he's talking about have you seen the stats about boys versus girls no in high school there's an article from the Hill

that's basically confirming exactly what Brian Callan is saying that's right there's two things number one the boys are trending more conservative. They're following the Andrew Tates of the world or the PBDs of the world. People that just kind of make sense. Yep. Especially when it comes to, there it is. And the girls are becoming more liberal. And I say this all the time, the last thing you ever need is just five girls talking.

You mean the view? Like the view? Yeah. Because they don't G-check each other. You're at ten, of course honey, doesn't matter. Sometimes it takes a dude to be like, you don't know about, bro. That's right. But then there's another stat. This is just this is just straight up. Yes. Boys going more conservative. But then it goes further. You talk about the religion of LGBTQ. But this is just normal high school kids. Here's what's interesting. They tracked it back, I think, to 2000, I want to say. Boys who identify as LGBTQ, it's gone from like 2% to like 2.5%.

Nothing crazy. Right, right, right. Girls have gone from like 2% to like 20%. Social contagion. The girls. They tend to achieve that pressure. Yeah, they're very socially aggressive, apparently. And so girls will engage in reputation destruction and things like that

So you've got to be very careful with how you speak when they play with each other if there's a disagreement They'll stop playing boys will just barrel ahead and so what can the parents do? I I actually think that I'm way more optimistic. I don't think you can apply this far left authoritarian ideology to the level of detail. And the reason you can't is a couple of reasons. When you start talking about gender being a spectrum, for example, I'm a man now, I'm a woman, I've decided, you just don't, there's no way logically to take that scaffolding, sort of that bedrock, there's nothing to anchor into. If everything is my perception and my feeling,

we're all over the place. I think that's by design. That was originally by design, the idea behind sort of the Marxist, postmodernist, liberal way of thinking, and I'm not talking about liberal in the old school sense, I'm talking about this new ideology, is not construction, deconstruction.

We want to destroy. You've got to tear the institutions down and rebuild them in your Marxist viewpoint to make everything equal. Isn't that the premise of Critical Race? They're in the 1690s project. Yes, yes, yes. Isn't that basically what it is? Yes, that's why they'll call a black person like Larry Elder a white supremacist because

what they're saying is that Larry you're part of the system That is already propping up say whiteness or men or whatever it might be And so the idea is you've got to tear down the entire institution do that by making no sense You know watch this we can transition that into a lot of different stories But I'll go into the best story that maybe makes sense because we're talking about girls here so NCAA I'll go into the best story that maybe makes sense because we're talking about girls here. So NCAA leading scorer, Kaitlyn Clark, is only popular because she's white, says race-baiting commentator Jameel Hill. Now let's go to it.

Rob, if you want to pull it up. So here we go. Jameel Hill claims Kaitlyn Clark's popularity is influenced by her race and sexuality, stating we would be very naive if we didn't say race and her sexuality played a role in the popularity. Hill adds, there is a part of it that is a little bit problematic because of what it says about the worth and the marketability of the players who are already there. Hill acknowledges Clark's difficult position in the race debate.

In that regard, I feel bad for Caitlin Clark because she didn't ask for any of that, but criticizes Hill for placing this nonsense on Clark's shoulder. Despite Clark's massive platform and impressive achievements, Clark's debut the most watched game in 23 years with over 2.3 million viewers on ESPN and mentioning the new chapter flight policy due to security concerns about the megastar Clark. Think about this. $2.2 million. WNBA, $2.2 million. Because of a white girl? You think it's because of a white girl? Because she shoots at lights out from the, what do you call it, the logo?

She's like the modern day Steph Curry. You know what's the closest thing she reminds me of? The closest case study. That was an anomaly. Okay. Baseball. closest thing she reminds me of, the closest case study. That was an anomaly. Okay, baseball. Is it a white sport, black sport, Hispanic sport? Right now it's a Latino sport, but it used to be white. Latino now, but white. Then white, then black. No Middle Easterns. I'm offended, right? I want to clarify that,

because that's out of control. But if we go to football, is it white, black, or Hispanic? Black first. And then what? Black first. Samoan. Samoan linemen, and then white people. White people, right? Okay, if you go to NBA, what is it?

Black and European, black and European white guys. Serbian. You're actually right, black and Serbian, Serbian, Slovenia, you know, some of those guys that come. Luke, Joker. Except if you're the Dallas Mavericks, Black and Serbian, Slovenia, you know, some of those guys that have come. Okay. Except if you're the Dallas Mavericks, they have been the whitest team since 2001. But Mark Cuban, he is so committed to DEI, according to The Guardian, for the first 20 years or so that he owned the Mavs, it was the whitest team in the NBA.

Mark Cuban, who supports DEI, he has had the whitest team in the NBA for the first 20 years or so of owning the team. Sometimes I'm sure he's very proud of. But if you go to golf, is it white or is it black? White. White and Asian. Until one guy showed up. One guy. He was Thai and black and a lot of others. That's right. He was a composite. I've never cared about golf ever. No problem. We're from Iran. You don't give Middle Easterns like a club,

say, hey, go play. No, you give them a rifle, you say, protect the country. Yeah. So golf, no one's gonna watch it. Then a Tiger Woods shows up and he's dominating. So it's not that we're attracted to skin color, we're attracted to dominators. I was gonna say. K, Caitlin dominates the game

So what are your thoughts with some of the stuff that's happened? They're complaining first they're complaining that they don't get paid enough money. Then a girl like this shows up That's about to increase everyone's pay and they're still bitching about it. Yeah, you're thought I just think that also keep in mind that Caitlin Clark There's a lot of white people in this country and when you see a white person in basketball standing out, it's like, oh dude, look at our fundamentals. She's unbelievable. Have you ever watched her practice,

the things she does? So there's something about that. People are tribal, obviously it's gonna stand out. Obviously you're gonna watch someone like Caitlin Clark who does look very white, and she's like six feet. I she's not dominant physically and she's that good it's it's it's not it's an anomaly it's still kind of rare but I just hate the fact that everything has to I don't know if it's for eyeballs or if it's just actual hate it's like bro you nailed it to shut up like what are you even talking about

why does it have to be everything has to be about race because look look what it makes us do it makes us talk About it. Yeah, it makes us and makes us even get angry But at the end of the day we're never because we talked about just about the flag and God and LGBT Unless the other side list we call out stuff like that and check that person vocally like make her Like have to fess up to her her ignorance and her hate like you're not doing anything for the game You're not doing anything for humanity. You're making because you know what look out. We're responding What about the people are like yeah the hell with that white girl like you're you're this bringing hate and animosity to a girl That's busted our ass to bring how many million was that Robbie 20 how many two million?

Listen, dude. It's this is this is intersectionality. That's the idea. You've got to break it all into little groups. And you know who's never represented? Dwarves. They're great at basketball. Yeah, they're great. But I never hear anybody. It's a little offensive though.

It's a little offensive for you. But he's being right. Is dwarf not the right word? Think about being somebody who's very, very small. That's the only group I never hear represented. And I'm not kidding. Peter Dinklage was the only actor. Because of DEI. I wish I could turn this. Kalin, you would know about this. That's the only group I never hear represented and I'm not kidding the

Callan you would know about this. I'll get the Kenan Clark in you're in Hollywood. We've seen in all the boobies Eddie we know who you are. You're a star. Thank you, sir Thank you the Snow White and the seven dwarves because of DEI they didn't hire seven dwarves anymore Yeah, they needed a fat guy needed an Asian guy Didn't hire seven dwarves anymore. They needed a fat guy. They needed an Asian guy You know they stopped doing that why do well, but you know they were doing yeah, but all the DEI officers in Hollywood were quietly Quietly fired. I don't know if you guys know that yeah, but a year quite quitting Yeah, they've all lost their jobs because what happened was Hollywood is the ultimate capitalist if if thank you if the country was run by people who run Hollywood we'd have no problems they solve problems that fast because it's all about money so what

they do is they go hey dude hey guys this whole D I think it's not working right I know very big directors who who stepped off movies, big movies, 10-pole movies, because they wrote a character, for example, who was in a wheelchair or maybe a hand again, and the notes were something to the kind of, hey, that person can't be that way, they have to be empowered. Well, no, they're actually, they don't have legs.

And it's not working. It's not working for my movie, bro. And they were like, sorry. And bro. And they were like sorry. And this is what they were dealing with. So what happens obviously is when they start losing hundreds of millions of dollars, they're like, Hey, this ain't you out. Well, by the way, by the way, just to clarify, you said hundreds of millions of dollars, brother, they're not losing hundreds of millions of dollars. They're losing hundreds of billions of dollars. Disney stock went from $380 billion market cap to $180.

Okay, but let me ask you this. How much of that is because streaming got sort of atomized? No, streaming, they were killing it on streaming. The market is just getting sick of it. The market is getting sick of what they're doing. And the very godmother of the man. Yeah, the market just, and by the way, let me just say this. If you're on this story, I think we've already transitioned. You're going to Hollywood. I just want to say one thing about bringing it back to Caitlin Clark.

I was so freaking offended last year when Kendrick Perkins, NBA analyst, was like the only reason that the Joker, Yokek was an MVP candidate is because he's white. He just won his third MVP in a row. That's hilarious. Okay, so this is how they said who said that? Kendrick Perkins. So it was who basically if he's a big dude, if I ever run him in the street, I'll probably not say it to his face online. I'll say it easily. This guy was a fledgling NBA career center. Not a big deal. The joker won an NBA championship last year. He basically said Joel and beach should get it. He's a, and beads an amazing player, but stop this guy's incredible. That's

like Tom Brady. The only reason that he's getting success is cause he's white. Oh, Tony, the only success he's getting is Asian. So let me ask you a question. Do we, do I have a reputation for defending LeBron James? Not really. I do not. Rob, can you pull up the clip I just texted you, if you have it? You know, the one I just sent you. Here's a LeBron James just said. Go ahead and play this clip. This is him with Redick, which, you know, Redick's interviewing LeBron regularly because he trusts him. Go ahead and play this clip. He might be his coach, actually.

The one thing that I love that she's bringing to her sport. Caitlin Clark. More people want to watch. There you go. More people want to tune in. Don't get it twisted. Don't get it fucked up. Caitlin Clark is the reason why a lot of great things is gonna happen for the WNBA. Good for you LeBron. But for her individually, I don't think she should get involved on nothing that's being said. Just go have fun and joy You know, but I'm rude for Caitlin because I've been before I've walked that good for you or I hope they I hope she killed you can pause it right here. Listen

That's all gotta give him credit good for you, bro For saying something like that the fact that because you know He knows what it's like to come in and from the moment you're getting all that criticism He relates to him from that side, but I'm glad he didn't use any race baiting card No, I'm actually impressed with the position he took. This is why I love comedy comedy You either have it or you don't couple things you can't fake fighting dancing and comedy try faking those things people will find that out Try dancing you can't dance try getting in a ring if you can't you know you're gonna get knocked out I love the truth and there are certain things

you can do that you cannot I don't care who your agent is I don't care how much hype you have behind you do you have the goods or don't you and if you don't I've seen famous actors try to do comedy it gets quiet quick yeah so let me go to the next story by the way before I get to the next story Just want to let some of you guys know added the numbered hats 250 108 is already gone in the first 30 minutes of an hour 108 is gone of the hats being ordered So if you haven't yet ordered yours go get one of the numbered hats and by the way the only shirt I officially work out in is these this is all I wear

It's the most comfortable shirt I've ever had for sports, working out, all of it. And I've had many by far. So get the PVD podcast, Valuetainment, Future Looks Bright, when you're ordering these as well. Let me continue. Okay, so we talked Disney briefly, right? Here's what's going on with Disney. Disney bleeding Pixar slashes 14% of workforce amid brutal budget cuts. Okay, let's see what's going on with Disney because this is Hollywood and this is something

you can speak on. The once mighty Pixar is laying off 14% of its workforce at the Walt Disney as Walt Disney continues to make brutal budget cuts across its many businesses. Pixar Animation Studios is slashing about 175 jobs due to its large part to Disney Plus reducing the number of series it is putting out. According to a deadline report, earlier estimates had put the layoffs closer to 20%. The cuts come after Pixar laid off 75 jobs earlier this year, putting two executives behind the box office flop lightyear. CEO Bob Iger recently acknowledged Disney massively overspent on streaming content in

an attempt to draw more subscribers to Disney Plus and its other services, causing the company to lose billions of dollars. Thoughts on this are this I think first of all to make a movie like any Pixar movie is So difficult it's so difficult and I I think we are suffering creatively as a result of all these sort of enforced Notions of inclusion etc. I'm gonna go back. I think to have to create some of the movies that all of us love. I just watched What's that time machine hot tub time machine you could make that movie today? It was so irreverent and there were so many you know sort of What's the word trigger triggering words and things like that that you?

You I know that they would leave those out and they were a huge part of the comedy And I think in order to be creative and in order to write these amazing movies, you have to be in a room where everything is allowed, where you're allowed to be absolutely irreverent, insulting, dangerous with your ideas. You've gotta be able to throw everything up on the wall. And we used to have that in a writer's room.

Writer's rooms were outrageous. It was like, people would be like, if somebody recorded this, we'd all be, we'd probably be put on against the wall and shot. You have to do that. Comedy, when it comes to stand up, one of the things I loved about the Tom Brady roast was for the first time, and thank God to Netflix,

they were up there doing the craziest, most irreverent things in the world. And people went, oh, that works. Oh yeah, that's what it takes to be funny. And I, listen, let me give you another example. And people talk about the men and good old boy networks and all that stuff. Cool, ready for this?

What do you think all these things start? Who created the tech industry? A bunch of dudes in their garages? No women just a bunch of guys who are probably interested in in their tummy and there and they were doing everything so that they Get laid UFC did the UFC start with a bunch of like Politically correct men and women and inclusion and it just started with a bunch of outlaws. The X Games, how'd that start? Just a bunch of outlaws.

These are subcultures. These were outlaw subcultures of men, of groups of men competing, trying to kill each other, and also cooperating well. And it gave us, I mean, some of the most, it, that is what our economy is built on. Our economy and our art and our artistic expression

Hollywood you how was hollywood created it was created by a bunch of european refugee jews Men Cutthroat who said you know what let's tell stories Why don't we tell the great stories and some of the greatest writers some of the greatest musicians some of the greatest producers? The people that put everything together and created the stories that we stay alive for the cornerstone of our American culture is What is the is the movie are the great movies we all talk about good old boy networks boys? Men getting together competing

Cooperating trying to beat each other. That's what it was about. Let me tie that into your book. I'm gonna give you a compliment, all right? I read a lot, I read a lot. And I was worried about reading your book because I like you so much. And I didn't wanna read it and kinda be like,

ah man, Patrick Kinn is gonna write a book. I gotta read it, he's my boy. I'm gonna say this, I'm an old man now. I'm older than you are. And I rarely read things where I learn something new. A lot of times it's a reiteration. It's what happens as you get older. I never thought that having enemies and embracing

and dilating down on who my enemies are was something that could help me and motivate me. I was always trying to say I don't have any enemies because that was bad. I was always trying to say to myself don't think about that. Don't try to be as competitive as you naturally are. I read that book dude and I got to tell you what a gift because I I went choose your enemies wisely. Your enemies I thought to myself I thought to myself. I thought I'm gonna embrace I'm gonna embrace the people that I think that I just can't stand that's that screwed me over I've never done that I'm gonna embrace the fact that it bothers me that in my opinion

I mean, I'm pretty good comic Vinny by the way Vinny and I are gonna be at the Danny improv Tonight two shows tomorrow two shows and then and Rob's gonna be at the Danny improv that tonight two shows tomorrow two shows and then and Rob's gonna be there too. And then Sunday. But I'm gonna embrace the fact that some people are doing better and it bothers me. I never ever was that way. I fought that tooth and nail. And I read your book.

I looked at my wife and I swear to God, I said to her I go, this book has just changed the way I'm gonna move for I'm serious, bro So what a love it? I can't believe I read a book from somebody and I'm telling you I gotta read it and That was a gift. So I'm kissing your ass a little bit right now, but it's it's that's all I'm gonna say about the book I'm gonna say that that was a new idea It was something that I always resisted and after reading it I have now embraced it and it is my fuel. I woke up pumped and So thank you. I feel the fire. I don't know what I'm telling you. I love it. That's telling that's great to hear

It's it's your enemies are your best friend. That's your fuel Choose your enemy and it doesn't have to be a person. That's the other thing I got from the book It does not have to be in person that story you tell about your father it's so moving to me because I love my father yeah and that humiliation that you felt for that great man that you still love that was that was that's a movie dude that's a movie that that's that's how it starts that was that was that thing that caught you where you just went and what motivates you love deep deep

Admiration and love for a man who never even saw you because he was always gone. What was he doing? That the other thing he said I love is he was out there. He was out there slaying dragons Don't have time for you. I can't see him, but I love you and you know, my father was the same way I didn't see my dad a lot But I knew at the end of the day that he was out there slaying dragons for me that that's what mattered to my man. That's that's it. So anyway, thank you That's the book that's back to what I was saying about good old boy networks back to what I was saying about being outlaws back to I was saying about why competition is so important because competition when you have enemies when you have people you're trying to beat What does that do?

It also bonds you to the team that you are forming that is going to war with those people There's nothing more more bonding than when you're up against it. It creates that thing called oxytocin They figure that out in combat. That's why men who've been to combat forget it. They're bonded for life. It's it's so crazy You're saying that right that that we when you have a similar crazy you're saying that right that that we when you have a similar passion and emotion about an enemy and you find others like that got me good luck trying to go up against people like that just just yesterday right Bronx but I don't know if you watch any of the interviews when they're talking to people did you see someone who's the New Yorkers in the ball is this the highlight is this what

it looked like or is this the interview this is just a crowd I can play this one. Okay, play realize New York is I'm from New York New York is Conservative and you got a lot of people if they try to invade if anybody tries to invade the United States Come through like Seattle, please come up through the don't try to come Eastern seaboard too many roided out of town and I was dude come don't try to come to Eastern Seaboard. Too many roided out Italians and Irish dudes are looking. They got baseball bats in their trunk. They're gonna be like what? You ever been to Yonkers? Forget about it. You're coming over with your destroyership? Come over here right now. I'll brain you. Show that highlight real quick and then go into one of the, go ahead and show this.

A lot of people of color by the way. Oh yeah. A lot of people of color, by the way. Oh yeah. A lot of people of color. Yep. I'm having a hard time finding a white guy. There's one. There's another one. Wow, look at this.

Look for white people. Yeah, that's crazy. Yeah, there's one. That is white. There's a Secret Service. At least one of them is there. Look at DJ T chilling. Imagine that job, those Secret Service people.

But I'm going to tell you what's wild, this is the one, whoever is this. So there is interviews Rob, there's interviews where people are talking to and saying, so hey you know, why are you here? Matter of fact, it's the one with the go a little lower Rob, go a little lower, okay right there, the pink color lady. No one, right there. Watch this, play this. Are you from?

The Bronx, actually. I'm originally from the Bronx and from New York. I'm from the Bronx. Right here in the Bronx, New York. This is home, right here. AOC says if you're not a Democrat, you don't belong here in the Bronx. What do you say?

I disagree with that. I don't think she should be here in the Bronx. I actually don't know any Democrats living in the Bronx. Look AOC, look at the tremendous support for Mr. Donald J. Trump. You need to tell her that she needs to stay out of the Bronx, because look at all the people around, everybody's here for Trump. I am a Democrat, and I belong here. Oh snap.

They need to vote AOC out. Donald J. Trump. What has AOC done for the Bronx? She's done nothing for the Bronx. Nothing. Nothing's changed. Nothing's gotten any better. Nothing. Absolutely nothing.

Now her come to the Bronx and let her come among us people that struggle. She doesn't even know what struggle is. Oh snap. Puerto Rican girl going crazy. See what happens? So the question becomes why'd you vote her though? Why'd you vote her? Adam's got a good point.

Go ahead Adam. Yeah, well, let's just see if they vote her out. But can I tie this all in because I'm gonna pay you respect right now. You just paid him respect. This all comes that you talked about Disney. We talked about having the ability as a comic or even as a writer to try new things out to offend people, you know, two weeks ago, a week ago, we had Vivek on the podcast and that was when it was going viral when and culture was like Yeah, I wouldn't vote for you because you're a brown Indian guy What and culture said that to his face and to his face?

And you know what he did you know what he did bro. He goes. Yeah fine cool And it made me think because in that episode we talked about a few things one of the things that we played we could probably please cut was Seinfeld getting booed as he was giving the commencement speech at Duke, I believe. And people laughed and he's getting booed. He goes, this, hey guys, life ain't easy. What do the Buddhist say? 70% of life is struggle? Yeah. You got to have a sense of humor. Take a joke. We've seen over the last decade or so people are so soft. They get so offended so easily There's no have a sense of humor. Why am I bringing this up to Brian Callan? I went and I said what are the top a hundred funniest movies of all time?

Do you know the last? Funniest movie of the top 100 that was made of the top 100 yeah blazing saddles old school this that every funny movie you know the last one that was made what's that you were in it bro 2009 the hangover check imdb every movie 1972 a black sheriff the blazing saddles oh my god the history of the world uh you know the most hilarious movies of all time back to training places coming to America in 2009. What am I saying since 2010? No funny. How about that were made people can't offend we can't have cancel culture. We're gonna get canceled Do you know what they're so worried and you have to take chances you have to take risks To where people to boo you and not like you and that's what they're not willing to do Todd Phillips

So Todd Phillips who wrote and directed the hangover a couple movies like Joker like old school bad Santa nobody knows that page one rewrite that that was his movie a genius Todd Phillips is a genius and I when he when he after the hangover was a huge hit you'll love this because this goes right back to choose your enemies wisely I said to him I said what motivates you dude what because I was in the car with him while we were driving in Montreal to He was talking he was setting up due date. He was talking about actors and something's pretty cool to listen to him talk to the brass You know I said what is it that?

Motivates you and he goes revenge fuck these bitches. That's what he said He goes he goes because he was trying to get old school to written done and you mean? I'm sorry, Todd, if I'm speaking, I'm sorry. He goes, he goes, "'Cause he was trying to get Old School II written, done. And everybody was like, I'm busy, no, no, no. And he was like, oh wait, you guys don't wanna do the sequel to the best movie ever, Old School? How about this, guys, I'll tell you what, I'm gonna write a movie called Hangover with nobody you know, I'm gonna cast,

I remember he called me about Zach Galifianakis, he goes, is that guy funny? I go, he's the funniest guy on the planet. His eyes make me laugh. I go, hire him. I'm not saying he hired him because of that, but I, I, I remember. So he basically, he basically said, I'm going to, how about I write a movie on my own and then I'll just, uh, with my buddy Scott. And then I'm just going to, I'm just going to hire a guy named Bradley Cooper. No one knew no one knew I'll put this guy Zach Galifianakis in there. No one knows and helm no one and then I'm gonna take no money. I'll take no money I remember I said I said how much you make it I said well

I was doing the movie I go how much you making for this he goes you're making more than I am I was making like two grand or something. I was like What he goes I know I'm just I'm getting the back end. And I, and I thought to myself, I go, you're so crazy. You're not going to get money from the back end. You don't get the fix. Nobody knows these people. Nobody knows anybody. It's 2007. Nobody knows them. And he was like, do you do, do you do, do you do? Sorry about the old school two guys. So, so right back to that. That's what, that's what motivated wonder where Pedro is now at this point. Brian, let me ask you a question though.

So it has been since 2010, like Adam. Carlos, my bad. I'm sorry to culturally appropriate. That Adam pointed out. Okay, do you think it's going to start to change? Because I mean, we're being optimistic that you know what the future is being bright. Or does it, because I mean, like think about it.

If you have a funny product, Brian, you've read, we've read scripts. You read a script and it's hilarious. And yes, it's going to be R. It's going to pushed in an envelope. It has to be like an undeniable thing for Hollywood or does a new Hollywood have to be built for us to do our own shit? No, no, no, no, no.

We'll get back to it. Look, comedy and art disturbs. Comedy and art disturb. They're making, they're writing love notes. Comedy and art, they have to disturb. They're making, they're writing love notes. Comedy and art, they have to disturb. Art, good art is supposed to shake you out of your complacency. When's the first time you watched Hangover? I watched it. Like did you watch it with like Bradley and everybody? When did you watch it? So nobody's gonna believe me, but I didn't go, I don't believe, I didn't go to the premiere and I

watched it, I watched it once and I've never watched it again. Tell me you're joking. And not only am I not joking, I've never seen Hangover 2 all the way through. I can't watch myself. I get to, I hate everything about what I do. Oh, bro, let me tell you, you for me, I'm telling you, you stole the show.

I don't know if you understand this. I'm telling you, like if I tell you what scenes I remember, I remember the number one scene I remember when they show up to the to the what do you call it? He's a you motherfucker put the hand on the face. I've seen that thing on repeat Well, that's why that's why Todd started laughing so hard because I said to him I said instead of being from New York guy was Eddie from New York He's first supposed to be a guy like you don't remember me what happened

There's a it's a different kind of you know, it's a different kind of tempo. It's a little bit more Macho, I said dude he owns a wedding chapel. That's an Armenian. That's a Lebanese guy Someone who can get you anything I can get you I can I'm I'm always selling something you know And I because I lived in Lebanon. I said so in the reading I said that he started laughing when I even did that He started to do that do that, you know in the reading So it's all of us like that's where that we were doing all the actors and stuff like that And I when I get shot all I did was I went kiss shot the shot of move. I swore in Arabic

They all thought that means your mother's a whore They all fell out. They all fell out. That means your mother's a whore. You know, I got shot and they all fell out and that was it. Todd was like, that's it. Do that character. So good. Yeah. Callan, you know, when people are like, oh, Brian Callan's good. Who's Brian Callan? I'm like, I showed them. Oh, I love that guy. Yep.

It's such a memorable scene. But this is the reason circling back to Disney and everything, the whole cultural appropriation I if this movie was made today, they're like, are you even Armenian? Let's are you 11 years? But let's ask that let's ask that so why can't you make this movie today? You can now. Yeah, I think you can you can now if it's now. Yes, but what about the last two four five ten years? Because because there was so much first of all There was so much pressure and most importantly, please understand and remember

that you could lose your livelihood and people did. And I'll give you one example. The guy who was high, high up in Netflix, what he was saying was that he was using the N word as an example of what not to say. He was saying, we cannot say this word. And he was saying the word. And he was admonishing people about the word

and why you can't use the word. A black executive said he felt uncomfortable in the meeting. And that guy was fired publicly and very publicly just for saying the word and that you shouldn't say the word and everyone in that room knew, knew what he was saying. So it no longer became even about the intention. It became just the word itself. That's directly out of the universities and you see this far left insane and destructive and frankly evil ideology that now started to permeate.

That's why you started getting people to say, she's a woman, because trans women are women. You don't know that. You're just saying that because that's what you've heard and you're aping it, you're parroting it. And that started happening. Look, I'm gonna tell you what started happening because I have friends who are creating shows.

In the writers' room, how about this? Somebody comes up with an idea, okay? So you're a Syrian, you're from, you know, you grew up in Iran and you come up with an idea. Not a good idea. And I go like this and I'm running the writer's room and I go, that doesn't work. Let's try, well, guess what?

Sorry, that's my experience, that's's my experience. That's my lived experience It's my lived experience and you just devalued my lived experience So it is gonna go in and if it doesn't go in I'm gonna stage a protest or I'm this was what writers We're having to deal with there's no way. That's what brother. I'm telling you. I have friends who told me I have a I know a friend who's a big time. Can you imagine? I'd be this was a story this was story that came out from a very very well-known a know a friend who's a big time. Can you imagine? I'd be furious. This was a story that came out from a very, very well known, a friend of mine who's created a lot of shows. And he goes, dude, I can't, I gotta be careful in the room. I can't even tell these people that are hired,

these people are just all hired there. They have no track record at all. But remember what they were doing. What is DEI? They were enforcing. What you do is you just put people in. That's what you do. You have to enforce that. You have to enforce equality. It's not equality of what? It's not equality of opportunity. It's equality of outcome. So you said when is it going to happen again? We're going to have to see it in the theaters.

You talked about the hangover, the opening scene or whatever, when he goes, Paging, doctor! Yeah, starts with an F. Imagine saying that, so you know when we'll actually get, when are they gonna have another hangover? When are they gonna have another old school? It'll be an accident. When are they gonna have another wedding crashers, another knocked up, another step brothers,

another super bet, until that happens. Let's, before we transition to the next one, top three favorite comedy movies of all time. Top three.

It might have been when I saw Dave Attell when he was younger and I'd never seen that kind of comedy. Like I was like, if I gotta be that kind of, I don with my girlfriend at the time and we were I mean I was Dying I was he's such a genius like when when what got him to the dance is Well, he's the comic comic. He's the comics comic. We should just sit there and watch him like already Like tells a story about he would just do crazy things be like Tuesday Like like Artie Lang tells a story about he would just do crazy things be like Tuesday 12 a.m. At the Comedy Cell are like four alcoholics in the room and he'd be like you guys are probably wondering what I'm doing here At Tuesday at 12 a.m

At the Comedy Store in front of four alcoholics. I'm not a comic. I've just lost my daughter Nadine He was just in the moment. I love it. I love was. Was it a show that he did at Somniac? Yeah. Yeah. But he was so good. But he was so unbelievably funny. Alright, let's transition to the next story here. So I saw this statistic that I don't know about you guys. To me, every once in a while I see certain data that just gets me leveled.

This thing for me was absolutely insane. Rob, can you pull up the type in fertility rate WSJ? We've talked about this, but we have not talked about this specific data. I wanna show this to you. Go all the way down to three charts below. Keep going down, keep going down, keep going down. If you go three charts below, is this,

are you on Wall Street Journal, Rob? Or not? Yeah, but I'm blocked. Okay, so let me send you the story here that I have, cause I'm not. You're blocked by the Wall Street Journal? Yeah, what happened, Rob? Rob, what happened? What the hell did you do to them? By the way, you know what it's about? Let me tell you what it's about. It's about how many people die per year to how many people are born every year. So you're like, okay, it's not a big deal. This number shouldn't be a crazy

number here. I'm going to take a screenshot. That's not it, Rob. Hang tight before I give it to you. This is the case with so many different developed countries. This guys, when you see, you would think this is another country, but it's actually America is that we're looking at here. Let me see if I can even send it to you, Rob. That's why Europe has no choice but to import all that labor. They don't have, they're not sustaining their populations. And that's why people are like, well, Europe is turning into this that and the other thing

well, that's they they're not reproducing enough to Watch this one Rob if you can pull this up you got both of them I send it to you on your phone and your tech and your computer. So this this chart here Shows from 19. I want to say 50, Rob did you get it? From 1930, you're pulling it up, from 1930 till today, how many kids are born every year to how many kids, how many people die every year? Zoom in a little bit? Yeah. Vinny, look at this. So in 1960, roughly 4.3 kids were being born every year. Okay. And in 1960, 1.7 million people were dying every year. So your net positive was 2.6 million.

Look at it today. 3.6 million kids are, 3.599, 3.6 million people born in 2023. But look at the death. This is post-COVID, by the way. We're not talking 2021, 2022. It's 3.1 million. So we went from being net positive by 2.6 million down to 500,000 more people being born than dying. Okay? You look unbelievable. Yeah. Fertility rate for us is at 1.6. Yeah. nobody's having kids. Nobody's having kids.

And men aren't getting married until they're 40 and 50, or not even married at all, because there's access to all that for a lot, it's a disaster. What's the risk for this? So when you look at this, I just want natural immediate reaction. What's your first reaction when you see something like this?

In my opinion, I don't think we're gonna have young people who can support our older people and support our economy. I think that's what kind of happens. That's certainly what's happening in Europe. I mean, what Germany's birth rate has been zero negative. So what they've had to do is import. That's why there are so many Turks, for example, in, in, in Germany. And so people say, well, we're losing our culture.

Well, you don't have enough people to preserve your traditional culture. Your traditional culture is literally dying off. The indigenous people, quote unquote, of Germany, for example, or what you would think of as German, is simply just not able to sustain itself. So to keep the economy going, a huge economy like that, you have to bring in young people from other countries who are motivated and that's what's going on.

So when they say things like Islam is the fastest growing religion in Europe, part of that is just because a lot of young Islamic people from Islamic countries are coming in because there's work, because there's work. Nobody wants to talk about this, but in Europe they need that labor. When you're in England, the people that are building your house are probably going to be from Poland and Hungary and Bulgaria because that's where the work is coming from. And then they import from other parts of the world as well. And by the way, did you see that article too? Because we're talking about fertility and men. And there's an article I just sent Rob on New York Post that microplastics found in testicles

and blood clots are sparking health concerns And they're saying that the microplastics are making their way Into various humans and animal bodies including testicles and their implications for their dangers for our sperm fertility mine Not mine, but it's but my sperm moves them out of like they're floating in a pool kids dead dead guys And it's like when they're like, you know doing their autopsies or whatever and then and dogs They found that from cadavers of people in ages 16 to 88 They found that ours had three times the more plastic in our testicles that are really

Dangerous levels that are affecting us Having having children too. It's insane. And the photo that they showed in there, Rob, there's one of the photos. It's just like microscopic stuff that's sitting in our, from microwaving and plastic and water bottles as it has on our water bottles. That makes sense. Look at that.

Like that type of- We eat like a credit card a year? You eat a credit card or something like that? No, I thought it was a week. Maybe a week? I thought it was a week, but it's- I'm trying to hear. And it's everything, but it's that, it's it's the culture It's that you know, it's it's

Very similar to story. We did about a week ago with the list of 13 reasons the reasons You know, it's funny because we everyone had their reasons, you know Vinny was like well, maybe because it's something jab, whatever everyone had their kind of thing and I just was like It's baby mama culture. It's feminism. What's what's going on? It's a working women. It's what's going on around the world It's traditional values decline everything talked about but then there was a glaring omission on my culture, it's feminism, what's going on, it's the working women, it's what's going on around the world, it's traditional values, decline, everything talked about. But then there was a glaring omission on my part and it was abortions. And who would have thought that birth control, you ready? Breaking news, controls birth.

And the amount of abortions, I mean, you know, Kanye has gone crazy. Does that guy Manek you and bring this? Or no, the guy from insurance? Because he said, you guys talk about what you talked about today. You guys didn't talk about birth control. I said manic the animal. No, I don't believe so. Okay. But I'll get back to you in a few days.

But yeah, abortions, you know, listen, despite contrary belief, the women are 100% of the times having the babies. So we could say all these things we want about men. Define a woman. Exactly. I don't know. It's hard to do. You ever hear this theory?

It's hard to do. You ever hear this really interesting theory? So they, men in prison, I think they did this study, a lot of men in prison, long-term prisoners have higher sperm counts. And also they found that they were like, a lot of men get jacked in jail, like you lift weights, but you're not eating a lot of starchy food,

but a lot of guys get super jacked. They got a lot of time on their hands. No, it's not. They don't, this is interesting. I don't know if this is true. It's an interesting theory. Well, jail's a dangerous place. And as a man, you're always on guard

and you always have to be ready to fight. And what that does is it keeps your testosterone levels spiked. It actually increases your testosterone levels. So they think maybe that's the reason people put on, I don't know, but it's an interesting theory. That might be one of the reasons they put so much muscle on quickly in jail when you're in a dangerous situation.

You're gonna evolve to put, you know, and when we live in a society when you're in a dangerous situation, you're going to, you're going to evolve to put, you know, and when we live in a society where you're never going to get punched in the face, you're never going to be physically assaulted because you know, there are cameras and sometimes you will, but for the most part, most of us feel pretty safe. Like if you look at like back in the fifties and the sixties, even the seventies, when I grew up, like in the eighties, you, it was, you could go to a bar and nobody had cameras out. You could get your ass kicked before anybody jumped in.

And you, you always knew that there was a situation where you might have to use your hands. I mean, my friends would never go out without shoes. They could move in. They, they weren't going to go out and you know, there was always that sort of like paranoia. And I just wonder sometimes if just the fact that everybody's got a camera in their hand that everybody is basically always being watched people feel a lot safer today Than they did I wonder if that has anything to do with it's my it's my bro science But I like the theory though, and maybe we could test it here Pat We'll put out a slack and believe hey listen if Vinny sees you he's gonna punch you in your face Yeah, maybe people just start getting your revival

I'm very happy with the Bible with this guy's jacked up. Well, by the way, May 31st one year no alcohol So he's at 33 days. I think 34 days. I do how many days Patrick? Yeah on Monday. It'll be 35 days Is that why your face is so radiant? He's glowing. I'm just happy to see I don't drink I want I don't miss it at all. And it's not like Vinny if I may Vinny admittedly had sort of a drinking problem I mean I do you can take you can take sort out of that. Okay. Yeah Why don't you go ahead take sort out? I don't want to put my guy Vinny's off out there But I call him I goes how many I call him periodically. I go dude. You look phenomenal. I didn't recognize You know the first night I took him out my him

call him periodically. I go, dude, you look phenomenal. I didn't recognize, you know, the first time I took him out in Miami, I tried to beat up literally his best friend and the everybody. I was like, Vinnie, I said this, I've said this before. I'll say it again. Vinnie is one of the most talented comics ever period. And he could, he, I'm telling you, I'm saying this and it puts responsibility on, he has greatness inside of him. And I, that's why, you know, when I came here to do comedy, I don't like following this guy. I can follow anybody. Remember the last thing we did in Aventura. It's incredible. I don't like following the man. I can follow anybody. I followed everybody from Chris Rock to Seinfeld,

you name it. I followed everybody. I don't like following that guy. It takes me, I got to dig myself out of a hole. He's that funny. I'm not kidding. So we'll be at the day and you improv. Yeah, I love it choose your enemies Well, I'm not your enemy, but I'm gonna He puts me on notice, but can I say something? I want to watch I don't want to go back. That's why only open for vinegar Just 30 seconds this type of comic though Like I want the real people out there that are listening to say that and do that people do not want Anybody shining in front of them before you take the stage true you remind me of Damon Wayne senior Damon Wayne senior

You should tell me Vinny you go up there and you freaking kill them That's right, you're gonna make me have to stop that's how I look at it. You make the show better 100% yeah, most people would never have you. You're actually a nightmare for anyone. And I don't care who it is. You're a nightmare because you just killed the room too much. But Rogan's the same way. Rogan wants the funniest MFs up there. And then he goes up with an hour.

Yeah, I mean, Andrew had this guy that came up, Mark, who told the funniest story, man. I mean, he was fantastic. He says, look, everybody asks me, he says, why would you marry somebody as a, I'm telling this joke, but he says, why would you marry somebody as a virgin? You've never been with anybody.

I said, no, it's true, I've never been with anybody. He says, so how do you know if you're good in bed or not? How do you, like, you don't know. You've only been with one girl. He says, no, listen, I don't have a problem. I come every time my wife's gonna figure it out I'm good at sex I couldn't stop laughing. It was so funny I know what I'm doing next story Logan Paul

Prime sues Ryan Garcia for defamation Logan Paul's going head-to-head with Ryan Garcia for defamation. Logan Paul's going head to head with Ryan Garcia, but not in the ring, but order WWE, the WWE superstar. Prime Hydration just hit the boxer with a defamation lawsuit. The Maverick aired his frustration on social media just minutes ago, claiming his drink company is under attack by false narratives being thrown around on social media. And it's time to take action, with King Ryan being the first on the list. Today we begin to hold those accountable who've damaged our brand for attention

while we correct the narrative. Paul said on Instagram, we're here to stay and we'll continue to change the world of hydration with bold flavors and creative innovation in a lawsuit primed Lazat Garcia's alleged wrongdoom pointing out on a social media rant about how the drink will kill your guys' sick brains, mess up your guys' liver, and hurt you big time, among other harmful side effects without supporting the claims.

So what do you know about Prime Drink, Vinny or Brian? What do you guys know? I've tried it twice, and both times it was nasty. I didn't like the taste I didn't like any and bother cuz I heard in one drink. The caffeine level is ridiculous I can't handle that type of caffeine, but I wasn't a fan at all But I mean marketing marketing and all that stuff obviously, but what's actually in it? Can you go to the WaPo story? I just texted it to you Have you heard Patrick because as a businessman you'd appreciate this, I had somebody explain

this, I don't know if I'm right, but I had a guy who's in the know, who is a business guy. So when you have a drink like Prime, one of the things is you build recognition the way they've done a great job of doing. So without going into it, I'm probably not gonna drink the, I'm not, you know, my kids usually like Prime. I think for me, if it's not an organic protein shake, as you can tell, I ain't touching it, or raw milk.

But one of the things they'll do is this, there are four beverage companies, what Pepsi, Coca-Cola, I think it's Dr. Pepper, and LA, Luminary, something like that. There are four major, and they have shelf space and on that truck they have a slot, an empty sort of space on that truck. You can buy space on that truck and then you can buy shelf space to put your new drink on there. Now watch this. I'm not saying Prime does this, I'm just saying this what some beverage companies will do. I didn't know this. I'm gonna, I got a

beverage company. It's gonna cost me, start out 250 million dollars no matter what. I got to buy shelf space in different supermarkets. I got to buy space on those trucks to distribute that particular beverage. Now, I want to be able to say that my sales are very good. So what I'll do is I'll have, say, this beverage on the shelves. Then I hire a company to buy that, to buy those drinks, to buy that off the shelves. And that is legal. I can then give a company, I think it's called, one company

is called, I bought a, I bought a, or bought a, I'll give them, I'll give them a hundred million dollars or 10 million dollars to go buy all of that and do these promos of buy one, get one free. And that creates, that creates what you could call demand. I mean, I'm selling this and that's on my books. Now I can go and raise more money because my product is selling well. Do you know anything about that? Yeah, and they do that with books.

They do that with a lot of different things. Really? They do that with books. So we were even talking about, I don't wanna say the book, Rob, but you know what I'm talking about. They'll give New York Times bestseller lists with an asterisk saying there was one order of 50,000 or whatever it is we're so

Let me say what happened there's even a company that helps you become a bestseller where they have 50 buyers of the book in 50 different cities that go to show Barnes and Noble, these are guys that you pay 50, you know how you do focus group, you know the focus group model where you go, so what do you think about this, here's 75 bucks, what do you think about this, here's 75 bucks and you sit through a two hour thing, they pay you 50 or 75 dollars to go buy the book off the shelf, you show the receipt, receipt you bought the book come in and then you do what you do With the book and then Barnes and Noble gets a order saying wow we sold that out all the books at 50 locations in 50 cities that bumps you up and so there is there is that so and it's legal and that's legal

No, it's actually not so what I mean meaning when you say it's legal of course It's legal, but when they find out what the ranking that you did that tainted permanently. Yeah, well Triller so Triller Raised something of four hundred and twenty three million dollars. That was the Jake Paul fight Mm-hmm. And I guess from what I've read and what I've seen and this guy was telling me as well because he's in this particular part of the business He said I think they bought something like two million bots or and and and so and then they found out that that was The case if you look at this, but that's why Triller now is basically got $90,000 in the bank You see this is this is why?

For example, but they raise money I'll bring this up to my neck. I'll bring this up to my neck to kind of see how this thing work Okay, and by the way, you can put up my leg for Brian Callan's when act He's on my neck you can maniac with them and ask him any questions you want to ask you? That's a QR code. I've been I've been having a good time with this. Yeah, so the thing with my neck The thing with my neck is you know user response rate. Everything is about Actual activity you can say you have people that join your website or download the app. How many are active?

The key is activity. Right now, the average response rate for last month on Manek, when you ask a question, 94% of the time they respond to you. 94%. 50% of the time the answer you get is within 24 hours. So think about that. Where again, I can send a cold whatever email or any of that stuff on my neck,

you get a response like this. A lot of these things that come out and they try to fabricate a way to get the eyeballs, you can do that. I don't think that's what Logan Paul is doing. I think Logan Paul legit is selling a shit ton of. I believe that. Yeah, I don't like bashing the Paul brothers.

I actually like those guys, because I think what they've done, I'm a fan. So I think what Jake is doing and stuff, you know, and Logan, I don't like, people love to bash those guys. I don't like, they work their ass off. But I will tell you this. Here's what I will tell you.

If you want to pull up the Wapo story, this is the part that, as a drink company, you have to answer to, okay? Prime Energy has 200, this is according to Wapo, it has 200 milligrams of caffeine in it, in a 12 ounce can, which is about six times the amount of caffeine in a comparable can of Coca-Cola. And kids are drinking this. That's the problem.

That's the problem. Let me read this to you one more time. Rob, you can go lower. Just type in 200, it'll go to it. Control F200, you'll find it. It'll go to it. So Rob, why don't you go back and search this word. Prime drink caffeine levels. Go on Google type in prime drink caffeine levels and you'll see what numbers it'll come up. Prime drink caffeine levels right there. Zoom in. 200 milligrams, Prime Energy has 200 milligrams of caffeine in a 12 ounce can, which is about 6 times the amount of caffeine in a comparable can of Coca-Cola.

It also has taurine, inosal, iathine, all these other things that it has in it as well as energy drinks. So nobody is saying, you know, they're not doing well. They're actually doing very, I think even their revenues are over $2 billion. I believe it. I mean, these these guys these brothers have done a great job They're everywhere to know that your kids are drinking six cokes every time they drink a prime That's that's been that's what parents need to know and also and also besides besides filtered coconut water and caffeine and all the flavor agents Electrolytes what have you it also could change?

I don't know if you said it PBDD, sucralose, which is an artificial sweetener that some studies have linked to DNA damage, weird, and a leaky gut, which I don't even know what the hell that means. But if it's damaging your DNA, and again, but more power to that. One thing about sucralose, that component of the drink that they put, for example, the main reason why you put that in a different kind of a sugar is because it makes the flavor better. The problem with energy drinks, if they don't taste good, people are not buying them. So, number one rule, as weird as this sounds, the marketers will come and tell you, you

need to make sure they taste good or else you're not going to sell it. So if you type in, type in prime energy drink top line revenue. Prime energy drink top line revenue. energy drink top line revenue okay there you go look at this 1.2 billion dollars in annual sales in two years and that's an old story number two hydration drivers behind Gatorade think about Gatorade is the king yeah but we were in the PBD group chat maybe yesterday we were yeah there was can I tell that story what is that about a guy who was maybe gonna come on the podcast and what he talks about? With what's in these drinks. He was talking about Celsius. Did you see that clip? Oh, yeah

There's a chemical in in cellulose That that actually blocks the ability to break down the caffeine Right, so the caffeine sits stays in your body for five six hours So he basically was saying hey listen, you know, we know the energy Look, there's an energy drink war going on right there Gatorade's the king primus showed up I don't know where yeah, and he basically saying if you see the following word cyanacobalamin cyanacobalamin

It's like cyanacoblammon. Cyanacoblammon. You can probably play it here. That's Gary Brecker. It's like, stay away. Yeah, go ahead. Heard of a Celsius energy drink? Celsius energy drink has four times the amount of daily cyanide that a human being's meant to ingest. Four times. That's just one sample.

So drink Monster or Bang. I mean, drink Bang, not Monster or Celsius. Bang has methylcobalamin. This has cyanocobalamin. And we wonder what, we're putting these toxic chemicals. This is, you know where we get the hydrogen cyanide? Don't make me take you to that website because you'll just get up and leave.

I wonder, where would, do you know where we would get hydrogen cyanide because these facilities that actually compound this P12, they don't even pay for the hydrogen cyanide. You know where they get it? Human sewage treatment plants. It is the waste from a human sewage treatment plant. It's called sludge.

It's foamy yellow sludge. They scrape it off the top, they dry it, turn it into a powder, ship it to a facility, synthesize it with a metal, and put it in your body. This is allegedly the same story. Gary Brack is also the guy who said that the only, the best thing you can do to Melt fat off your body is to sit in ice water and there's zero

Human studies to prove that they took rats and brought them up to it They sat they almost died in hypothermia and they lost some weight. So I'm sorry that that's that's a very simplified idea Gary Brack is not a chemist. He's not a chemist You could say that about a lot of chemical familiar with what he talks about. Yeah, you are that's not as relevant He uses all these things like cyanide and stuff like that. No, sorry I don't I don't I just don't buy it from from him. So they'd be able to get them in show I don't think I don't think Celsius is necessarily bad for you. I mean good for you. I don't I don't drink it I'm a coffee guy, but overall I think the more relevant The relevant thing is that if you have that much caffeine and kids are taking it or you have a chemical that stops the breakdown

Of caffeine that's why your heart's gonna be beaten for five hours. You tell me if that's good for you What do you think about bracket? It sounds like you watch them. You follow them closely I just am friends with too many scientists and especially nutritional scientists who work with the biggest athletes in the world like LeBron James and guys who really need to see results. So when you have friends that run the biggest performance sports lab in the world and you listen to them talk, what you hear from them is things like this. Watch, if you're a scientist, you hear them use these words, Elaine Norton and those guys,

they'll use words like, I don't know, sometimes maybe it depends. When I hear somebody talking about, well, with all due respect for Gary Breckford, I don't know him, but when you hear somebody talk about how good for you and how effective a cold plunge is at losing weight and melting fat off your body. And then they sell cold plunges on their website. I tend to go, hmm, things that make me go, hmm, that's all. That's the music factory right there. And I just, again, Gary Brekka, who helped Dana White and I don't know him, I and I and I just again Gary Brekha who helped Dana White and you know, and I don't know him I mean, and I'm sure it probably worked calorie restriction and all the things god bless

And a good businessman, but he I think he's a he has a biology degree We'd have to look it up But I don't know that he's a scientist and I don't know that necessarily when I hear people talk in definitive terms About certain things. I always kind of go especially when I have people talk in definitive terms about certain things I always kind of go especially when I have scientist friends who go bullshit that's all so I go to his Wikipedia account yeah go to uh Gary Brekka now Dana White is not seeing one for Gary Brekka there's no way he doesn. There's no way he doesn't have a Wikipedia. There it is Rob, good job.

You ready for tonight Rob? We've got two shows. Are you ready Rob? Get your shit together Rob. Well you know his background. No I know. So here we go. So the co-founder of 10XL Systems, Gary Berka, holds degrees

in biology and human biology, but he is perhaps best known for his work with high profile clients like UFC President. So just stop for a second. So he's got his degrees in biology. Is that a BA? BS in biology. Okay. So he's got an undergraduate degree in biology. Okay, so he's got a he's got an undergraduate degree in biology Okay, I have an undergraduate degree in history. Don't ask me about history. I ain't a historian You know, I'm serious. I mean this is where I get very I kind of go. This is interesting. What's your background? What did he do before this? What was he a businessman? What was his thing before it was in the life? He was in the what life was in the life settlement business.

He was in the what? Life settlement business. Life settlement, what does that mean? I can tell you all about it if you want. Life settlement is you say you have a five million dollar insurance policy guys like him come you can't afford to pay anymore. That's all I need to hear. I'm already glazing over. Let me tell you what happens though. They come and they say you're how old 78 they'll do a testing on you okay we'll buy your policy five million dollars for let you say 20% I'm just giving a million bucks give you a million bucks you give us the five million dollar policy you die they get the five million dollar policy so they lost a million that for we do the math every year right and then they do the

math on when you're gonna die and the death benefit goes why am I gonna ask that guy about health? Why that's that's Let me flip it on you. Let me flip it on you and I'm and I'm not a Gary Brek a guy We this is not a guy. I broke breadwood We saw him one time at the UFC thing in the back and that's it I would flip it on you and would say, you know, why should I take advice from Rogan on Ivermectin? You shouldn't but but he believe it or from Rogan on Ivermectin? You shouldn't.

But believe it or not, Rogan did a lot of good for a lot of people. I agree with you, but I still wouldn't take my advice on anything from somebody who's a non-scientist. Joe's a comedian. He'll tell you that himself. Don't listen to me. I'm a comedian, and that's what I do first in a podcaster. So anybody who's taking their advice from comedians or podcasters,

anybody who's taking their advice from somebody who's not a credible scientist, who's done peer-reviewed research and human-controlled studies, you probably are taking, you better be careful about that stuff. Again. But I would be careful with the other side

because during COVID, we were also told to trust the science. So to me, I love what you said about the guy that said, it depends, maybe, sometime, not all the time. That's what I like as well. COVID created a lot, I'll never forgive them. I'll never forgive them. They put my daughter in a mask for two years.

They've lost my, people like this have lost my trust. I am right with you on that. I was against this mask policy from, and shutting down the economy from a bunch of bureaucrats who don't pay a price for being wrong, who've never started a business in their life, who have no idea what it is to build a brand over 30 years, who have no idea, they're just bureaucrats.

I have a huge problem with that, which is why I'm a conservative. I believe in small government, not a giant massive bureaucracy with no accountability. We can get into that. What I'm talking about here is I've seen that guy talk about a wand that you can put in water to hydrogenate your water. I'm sorry. A wand? A wand, sir. You want to hydrogenate? Bring it up. You want to hydrogenate your water with a nitrogen wand. These are the kinds of things that make me a little... Yeah,

click on that guy. That's my boy right there, Lane North. Lane's a PhD and a world, watch this. It's Friday and so you know what time it is. Stop for a sec. World champion, world champion powerlifter right now holds the world record of powerlifting and he's a PhD and he's a guy who says, the reason I don't have a yacht is I'm never gonna tell you that this is a

This is a catch-all. This is all good. I'm not going to say sugar is bad for you across the board I'm not going to do that. There are a lot of studies that show this that and the other thing So go ahead go ahead and play from the moment it starts watch this alina So what this will do inside this stick is something called mother water takes a year to make this I travel with this this so this thing doesn't break So you can either use it to stir a glass of water for about 30 seconds or you can stir this entire pitcher. What it'll do in about 30 seconds is it will restructure the water. Remember water doesn't just have chemical properties,

it's got physical properties. If you've ever seen any of the research on praying over water or actually speaking the water playing music water We now know being shut out in the bathroom. Everyone will organize into these beautiful like hexagonal structures It's not only more hydrating it actually changes the charge and makes makes the water more viable So this will restructure and make the water what we call coherent 30 seconds I thought we were done with this with Mindy Pelts. Okay, guys, sorry. I don't like charlatans and people that make up.

I really don't. But at a certain point, when a guy is stirring a wand in water, saying it makes it more coherent and changes the structure of the water, you deserve to get scammed. I'm sorry. My hands.

I can change. I can make it work. He's selling that. He's selling those. Did you buy that? No, of course you didn't. So why would you buy this? Yes, water organizes itself into a structure

based on hydrogen bonding. But if you could change the structure of the water significantly, it just changes its state. It either goes into gaseous form or it goes into ice crystal structure. It changes the charge. Based on what? You can probably write the rhyme. Well guess what? I'm returning my wand. So I've never done that in my life. Have you? I've never done that. I've never said,

you know, I have an app right now that's gonna change your aura You're gonna where's your pain in your shoulder? Yeah, that's back and his back and I have to hold this there a sec No, it's a lick your lips and then we have to get you in black panties actually because I got a You know like shut up. Come on, dude. Come on. Come on. There's a limit What was the term for in the Old West when the guy would sell you the elixir? Snake oil sales the water the water becomes more coherent. You're going with water becomes more coherent He sold a lot of guys that are your friends and he sold a lot of you know

All I'm saying Patrick is we got to look at the evidence What you're saying is I don't know sometimes maybe Things that make me go. Hmm. That's all I'm saying That's all I'm saying. I don't want to cause any problems. All right, let's go to a different story here, Rob So can you pull up the James Comey his reaction losing his mind with us? We have to vote for Biden based on what Comey is saying here. Go to play this clip. Watch this Look at him. He just loses it. Are you concerned that it may get a Biden based on what Comey is saying here. Go to play this clip. Watch this. Look at him. He just loses it.

Are you concerned that it may get a test unlike any other if Donald Trump is reelected? I mean, when you think about a second Trump administration, what do you think the implications would be for the FBI? Oh, serious. For the Justice Department and the FBI, because Trump is coming for those institutions. He knows their power and I think he has regrets that he didn't work hard enough to corrupt them last time. So he's coming for them and that's a danger for all Americans. He's going to put people in positions in those organizations. He didn't have all-stars the last time.

He'll have the bottom of the barrel this time. But people who will want to do his will and that should worry every American. This election matters because of a reason like that. People have to participate. You cannot sit on the sideline. I don't care how you feel about Joe Biden. You must vote for him because the consequences on the other side are too severe. The MAGA mafia.

Look at this. That's not biased, is it? Dude, that makes me want to go for him. But what do you think about it? Because I'm going to go in on the FBI. First of all, for everybody that remembers who this scumbag is, protected, you know, yeah, he brought up the story about Hillary, but the whole thing with Trump and the collusion and everything, I want everybody to remember who James Comey is.

He's a scumbag, and that's my humble opinion. I don't know if you guys remember the FBI, if you don't mind, he's a part of the same FBI that nobody trusts anymore from Peter Strzok with the Russia collusion with everything. Remember when they did the raid at Mar-a-Lago? The FBI, the actual agents, they didn't want to do the actual raid, all right? Merrick Garland overrode them and he added that he wanted to add deadly force. Okay. They're looking for documents. But if you're looking for deadly force, that means you want a gunfight. You want something to happen. You know Secret

Services there. You know Donald Trump. You're saying deadly force actually for audience that doesn't know. You want to tell them what you mean by the deadly force? Well, I'm saying the deadly force, so Merrick Garland... You want me to show the words? Can you pull this up so I can just have any go? New Doc reveals FBI was authorized to use deadly force during Mar-a-Lago raid. Independent journalists like Julie Kelly reported on new information on Sealed as part of a

legal case Donald Trump is fighting regarding his alleged mishandling of classified documents which included proof that the FBI was authorized to use deadly force when necessary on both Trump and Secret Service during their Mar-a-Lago raid by filing an exhibit in motion to supreme evidence from 2022 Mar-a-Lago raid. Trump has inadvertently discovered new information about FBI's permission to use force, even deadly force against him and his secret service. So that's the story that came out of even Trump. Can I tell you something though? Don't you feel so nice you're being gamed? When I hear this, I think to myself, do what?

The FBI overall, first of all, if you really see it, it is made up of very conservative people and real patriots, actually. Like the majority of them? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Like the majority of them? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. You'd be very surprised. I mean, the FBI is an outstanding institution with an unbelievable track record. Of course, like any institution, you've got rogue actors, you've got people that make

mistakes. But for the most part, most people would probably say the FBI in a lot of ways isn't it pretty impeccable institution a lot of ways and the people in that institution those they're they're very conservative they tend to be fine it's crazy I'm gonna disagree because from what I've seen from the past seven years from what from how they treat Hillary how they treat conservative presidents or or potential presidents to Hillary and all them well like Peter struck and all the yeah and you're right the internal the ages mind you I know a

guy that I talked to on my neck Brian he's one of us I agree that there's some but as the institution we can go all the way back to I agree I'm not saying that there obviously any institutions gonna have corruption is gonna have course you know I think what I worry about with this kind of like report is I go, I say to myself, hold on, is this being, am I being gamed in other words is if you're an FBI agent and you send agents in, they have guns. The mandate always is if you are, you are attacked or shot, you, you, you have the ability to use deadly force. So there's no such thing as an FBI operation where they're not allowed.

Oh, for that they don't have the potential to pull a gun to shoot you. 1000%. That's what I worry about when I see this. I go, am I being gamed here? Is somebody on the other side trying to use this to kind of whip up a whole bunch of craziness? No, Brian, you are going to the ex the president of the United States is private, his house. Okay. You know, for a fact, their secret service and private

security. Donald Trump has, dude we've been there, it's massive, it's ridiculous and thank God they have it like that. But the reason they're looking for the fight, that's my opinion, the reason that they rated it is because they were trying to look for the crossfire hurricane documents. Those, which Donald Trump said if he's elected and for the 47th president United States all those documents this is the Russia collusion thing have incriminating evidence on Barack Obama Hillary Clinton and the CIA that's gonna show treasonous shit that they did to the country no wonder why

they're wheeling out James Comey it's all timing they bring them out to be like everybody that scare scare scare scare it's I people aren't dumb to realize what's happening, to go to the president's house and say, because the regular agent, and Rob, you have this video, this is Senator Howley is grilling AG Merrick Garland, and it's pretty revealing on why he did it. I know what you're saying about the blanket. Yeah, I don't know.

I'm just saying, I see I love your, I appreciate and love your cynicism here and your your question because as an American I don't you should always be asking this question I don't trust I don't must handle trust and like you said there's good people but Brian there is a reason Donald Trump cannot win. I've said this before they cannot let let this guy in. The ex-FBI head of FBI is panicking and saying you have to vote for this other guy. This is Senator Holly who I freaking love. He's one of the true ones going after him about the raid. Thank you Mr. Chairman. Attorney General Garland, you said in our last exchange that it's your

practice to defer to FBI agents in the field when it comes to investigations, apprehensions of subjects. I was interested, given your answer, to read in this morning's Washington Post that the FBI is saying that you overruled them when it came to raiding ex-President Trump's personal residence. Washington Post reports this morning, showdown before the raid that senior FBI officials who would be in charge of leading the search resisted doing so as too combative and in proposed and said to seek Trump's permission to search his property. These field agents wanted to shutter the

criminal investigation altogether in early June the Post reports but they were overruled because they wereed by Maine DOJ. So I guess in light of your earlier testimony, just this morning, my question is, how often do you overrule FBI field agents for political purposes? I've skimmed that article. That's not an accurate reflection

of what the article says, and I'm not able to comment on the investigation. My comment earlier was about tactics on the ground in particular cases. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. You said it's not an, I'm reading to you from the article. Quote, senior FBI officials who would be in charge of leading the search resisted the plan as too combative

and proposed instead to seek Trump's permission to seek his property according to four people who spoke on condition of anonymity to describe a sensitive investigation." End quote. I love our democracy. I have to say I'm not able to describe the investigation. I will say as a general matter and at a high level of generality that in my long experience as a prosecutor, there is often a robust discussion and in the end,

and it's encouraged among investigators and prosecutors. Attorney General, my time is very... I love that. Yes, and you made the decision. I did. That's... Right? You said you did. No, I'm sorry. What I said was I approved the decision. So you didn't make the decision to raid?

I approved the decision to seek a search warrant after probable cause was allowed. overruling the FBI agents who did not want to do so Did you talk about this with the White House? The memorandum does not, that Washington Post article does not say what you're saying I'm sorry, and I'm not able to describe this in any further detail. Well, I think given that, Mr. Chairman I'll just ask that this entire article be entered into the record. You know, it's from Smart Tech Group. And we can read for ourselves. I invite people to go and look. It says exactly that FBI field agents did not want to conduct the raid and they were

overruled by DOJ. So it doesn't seem to me, Attorney General, that the FBI has more confidence in you because what they're doing clearly is trying to distance themselves from your decisions. They're out there leaking left right and center and saying it wasn't us we didn't want to do it he made us do it what's that say about their confidence in your leadership? Well the previous senator said that they're leaking all in favor of the left now you're saying they're leaking all in favor I'm asking you my question answer my question based on this evidence don't

disembowel attorney general. Time is my question time is and he won't and I love But I'm buying that goes to your point. That's what's happening right there. Yes. There are amazing. Yeah, I love him. There's amazing agents They are conservative but but what do you do when there you have the conservative good agents that are trying to open their mouths? But the leader, you know, we're gonna do you know what I say, you know what I'd say what that is democracy at work It's never been any different in our Republic And as long as we have that as long as we have back and forth between right and left or Democrats and Republicans We are we are a okay, and you know why it keeps government grinding at a very very slow laborious pace you want government going

very, very slow, laborious pace. You want government going, gang, one step back, one step, because they stay out of our lives. Checks and balances. You want checks and balances. The founding fathers wanted that right there. Yelling back and forth, holding each other accountable, making you look stupid, I'll make you look stupid.

Debate, and what happens? We just waste a lot of time in a chamber, yes. So the rest of us can get on, make our money, not get taxed to the gills and keep on going. I think that's a very good point. I just, for those of us who don't remember Comey, the last thing that I remember from Comey, if you remember this was in 2016, Trump got elected. There was a meeting in the Oval Office. You can probably find this. Comey is 6'8".

Yeah, he's a big boy. He ain't a small dude. No, he's a big boy. He's the former director of the FBI. He was preceded by Bob Mueller, aka the Mueller Report. And the new director of the FBI since Trump is Christopher Wray. There's this meeting. And in the meeting, 6'8", James Comey is trying to blend in with a blue curtain. Can you punch it? Is this the picture?

that's so fun trying to blend in and what happens is By the way, James Comey is a lifelong Republican But he's also one of the never Trump Republicans in 2016 after his firing basically right after this meeting He switched to independent. Yeah, he's like a Bush Establishment you talked about institutions. Yeah, he's an institutionalist. He's an establishment Republican. That's who he is now He's officially an independent. What's my point after this the story with Comey was that Trump asked for what? What's the one thing that Trump asked for from Comey his loyalty and he said sir I cannot promise you undying loyalty but I can promise you to always tell you the truth.

You'll always get I like I like that and he got fired and do you know what the book he wrote was called a higher loyalty truth lies and leadership but I like that I like that Comey said that Adam because yes because the FBI director cannot be loyal to the president the FBI the FBI director has to be loyal to the law this is not ruled by a man this is ruled by law very very important distinction in democracy guys is that you cannot have a man setting the rules the The president is responsible to the law and is under the law. You need to preserve that. And so I don't think that because,

remember Comey is the one who's blamed for making Hillary Clinton lose the election. He opened that investigation. Yeah, one week before the election. Sloppy emails. By the way, he doesn't come out. Trump doesn't win. Right.

You know what it's like? It's kind of like this. It's like if Twitter allowed for the New York Post to stay, Biden doesn't win. Exactly. what it's like? It's kind of like this. It's like if Twitter allowed for the New York Post to stay, Biden doesn't win. That's how close this was. Hillary hates Comey and Trump hates Comey. Hillary probably hates him more. Yes, and so what I think is, again,

I don't think you're a bad person if you're a conservative and you have big problems with Trump. You're allowed to be a conservative and say, I think Trump is a con man or whatever it might be, and have a problem with his character, and have a problem with the fact that he's all about Trump and not about the higher principles. That's a legitimate argument you can make.

I think we have to be careful about that. I do also think that the stakes are very high. And I think the fact that in a lot of ways, Biden has been hijacked by the radical left is a very big problem. I find that to be a much bigger threat than say a narcissist in the White House like Trump. Frankly, I think Trump is very funny. I think he's got a pretty good command of foreign policy.

I think he has a very good command of the economy. I just do. That's my personal opinion. I got other problems with the guy, but I'll take him probably over somebody who I think is probably pushing. I mean, Biden is, is doesn't just have a stutter. He does seem to, he seems to be having some cognitive issues. Watch when please watch when he walks anywhere. His staff is creates a phalanx. They're like, hey, there might be a strong wind. We gotta make sure we wait until the wind dies. I'm not joking.

I will say one thing about Comey though. Comey is, if you were to go the last five years, people that you can't figure out, right? Think about the people that you can't figure out that are complicated. Comey's on the top five list. You can't really figure him out because he's the reason why Trump is president.

Think about it Pfizer vaccine announces the vaccine two days after election is over with what if they came out four days before? What if vaccine was announced by Pfizer a day before election who would have said I got it done Operation Warp Speed so Trump so that hurt him right? What if New York Post Twitter to me? Comey's an interesting guy now having said, when he's saying in that meltdown, saying, we have to be careful because if he comes in, he's going to replace this and he's going to replace that. Why are you worried?

Exactly. What's your worry? Why do you care? What is it such a big concern of yours, Ren? You did your part. Salute. Good for your service. Go make your whatever money you're making per year.

Why shouldn't we be looking at what Ray is doing? Or Merrick Garland, oh I approved it, oh no I didn't approve it, or they're going against you, or they're not going against you. Why? No, the part in the last two years, in the last 12 months, that in my lifetime of living in America that's very weird is actually seen because historically you lived in Iran man the government decides who wins and who doesn't win I mean they're gonna destroy the opposition right

Putin what is Putin to you think Putin uses the Department of Justice what do you think like we think DOJ here do you know how he uses the DOJ? You get poisoned. I'm actually being very serious What do you think the DOJ in Russia looks like? Oh my god So the only thing that's very different about the last 12 months. We actually are seeing What it looks like when the president uses the DOJ against you Yep, we learned about it that Obama did that but we didn't fully believe it. I agree with you Patrick. We're like, I don't know.

That's a big difference. The last 12 months is like, hey, wait a minute. Yes. Yep. Not cool with this, bro. I agree. So dismantle that entire thing is what I would say. I think also you've got these very creative DAs and they are doing whatever they can. You've got Fannie Willis, you've got Alvin Bragg with that ridiculous case. This case

with Alvin Bragg where that's a misdemeanor, paying hush money to a porn star and you're saying that influenced the election. Where is this in your chief, your number one witness is Cohen, who's been, who's a known perjurer, went to jail for it. What are we talking about here? That is a misdemeanor by the way. It's a misdemeanor writing checks to a porn star to keep her quiet. That's not even a, that's not even a, and you've got Alvin Bragg in New York who's shooting it up to a felony while he isn't even prosecuting real criminals on the street who mug people. So I agree, my biggest worry here is that the justice department, very creative DAs who make no, no zero bones about saying that they are far left candidates

usually put in place by people like Soros and stuff who are, who are doing whatever they can to use the legal system as a weapon to essentially put this guy in jail for the rest of his life. Or at the very least have him stuck in court where he can't come pick campaign Trump right now can campaign one day a week. Do you know that Wednesday? You know the rest of the time? He's in court Really? Yes, so you tell me so now that's what I worry about to your point I've never seen this before this is what other countries do where every president now has to worry and I promise you the Republicans are Gonna do it to a Democrat Every president now has to worry about spending the rest of their life in court and going bankrupt.

And Brian, that's why when I say, I think Merrick Garland overriding and saying I want deadly force, to me, that is an attempted assassination attempt because you are trying to tell them, guys, go in there and get these documents. If you even, any hesitation, you just start shooting. Yeah, but you're putting words in, I don't know if that's truveny, that's the only thing I'm saying.

What, that you authorize? Yeah, like I think, what I'm saying is that be careful because we might be getting gamed, right? Like so that, if you really knew the whole story, you might be like, oh damn, I shouldn't have said, I don't think that happened. I actually don't, I don't think that's what's really going on. I think, I think we might be looking at this technical law that's now being blown up for political purposes. Okay, and by the way, this is what I'll say. This is what I'll say on why I lean towards what Brian is saying here is sometimes in insurance policies like there's

like, you know, can you pull up the terms and conditions agreement for social media companies? Have you ever seen this? Have you ever seen the terms and conditions for social media companies? Just type it in and then go to images. Believe it or not, the person that's the longest, the contract, if you look it up, social media. Can I give a prediction? Who's the shortest? Tick-tock. Can China use all your data? Sure. Click here. Boom. Do you know who's the longest? Microsoft. So China use all your data? Sure, click here. Do you know who's longest? Microsoft.

So anyways, there's an image that shows how long it is there. I found it. Rob, I'll send it to you. You guys have to see this visual because it's a visual thing. Just pull up what I'm texting you, Rob. And where I'm going right now with this is the following. Sometimes you keep adding stuff to a contract and an agreement that you always reuse So the way I would want to see this is the file. This is when I'll lose it if I see it if the last 50 times you rated someone okay, and in there

Never said use of deadly force, but it isn't this one Problematic yes, this is where the people who are supporting, this is terms of service. Look at this. I think the longest one is Microsoft. Keep going down to see how long they are. Look at this. Keep going down, keep going down, keep going down,

keep going down, keep going down, keep going down, keep going down, keep going down, keep going down. Second to the right is Microsoft. Microsoft keeps going. That's Microsoft. Look at the Microsoft. Keeps going. They have the longest one, by the way.

So, but sometimes you just add this stuff in there after a lawsuit You add it again. Yeah, we kill that person But you know what why don't we put in the terms and condition that if the FBI? Accidentally does well guess what use of deadly force permission was given right yep, so guy doesn't go to jail If someone who's a lawyer who actually is able to find out the last 50 times they rated Who actually is able to find out the last 50 times they rated what terminology has been used and it's been used fine cool, if not Let a rip. Yeah, let a rip if you only isolated the contract on this specific case That's right that I happen this happened to me

I'm I CAA was my agent and when you go and you you go to a club you do a corporate gig You have a rider, right? You have like a thing on what the what the artist needs now I Get to this corporate gig and the woman comes in out of breath and she goes, I'm so sorry I go and she goes we can't find this a freestanding armoire And I go what's an armoire? He she goes an armoire that you from Seinfeld. Yeah, and you're closing. I said, an armoire? Well, I'm doing standard. She goes, yeah, but in your rider we have an armoire and we have the sandwiches.

And I go, I don't have anything in my rider. A rider? What rider? I don't ask for anything. Nothing. Yeah, my rider says, nothing. And she goes, and your rider says you have to have a freestanding mirror, you have to have an armoire, and you have to have a plate of sandwiches and then a couple of other things and I went

What my agent had done by accident has he taken someone else's rider? Oh, they didn't erase this for years, bro So I didn't know I never even noticed So I was like I've been I've been the biggest a-hole on the planet They've been they've been getting this thing and they've been trying to run around an arm. Why are you gonna get deeper? What is it? It's a it's a freestanding closet. It's a it's a big one Show me what an arm or how do you spell an arm? Can you imagine you know what like the Seinfeld episode? They did about I need Seinfeld episode that you did about Arm War. That's what I need? I need that? Bro, I'm in a hotel in the convention area where they're trying to get that thing. I

don't need that, bro. Tell me you know the Seinfeld episode about Arm War. No. Rob, one of the best episodes. That's a $4,000 piece of art Yeah, why this is what I Part and and I think this is why it's important to do some digging on this any lawyers watching dig It maniac me maniac Vinny send it to us. Yeah, we would love to know that's Vinny's maniac QR code right there You can maniac them right there. You see it. So guys, let me ask you a question And I've never asked you this I want to know do you think it's feasible or possible? It's actually happening right now that if the left, the really far left, the deep state had an opportunity to take out Trump, would they take it? Is there anything do you think in your heart of hearts?

Brian, so I think- Because of everything that's happening about it. I have one correction, but go ahead. Brian, from what I'm saying, they cannot let him win from 2016 till now. Look at what they're doing. The lawyers, the judges, Adam the other week was like Vinny you think the courts and the judges yes, I do because they all are bought and paid for do you think if they had An inkling an opportunity to take this guy out because I think if it was the 60s and only Superprudence 1000% they would have tried it already

So you think it's so the founding fathers especially James Madison what when he wrote the federalist papers with with John Jay and Alexander Hamilton, I believe, which is considered one of the great ideas of philosophy. I love what Calvin does. It gave birth to the Constitution, guys. So what was James Madison, what was he spending most of his time worrying about? Faction. How do you keep a faction, powerful factions, from forming in government. And then finally, one faction that was more ruthless, smarter, and maybe even more violent, taken over all the other factions.

And now you've got basically a mob, a mafia-like structure in your government that's running everything. How do you stop that? That was his greatest contribution was that he figured out a way to create these things called checks and balances so we don't have factions grow. So the founding fathers knew that of course you will always have ambitious people in power. And what do ambitious people in power do? Whatever they have to do to stay in power.

Let me quote Lord Acton, power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Human beings, everybody in this room, all of us would be the same way. You gotta remember that about your own personality. That I have a way of, I know how I wanna make the world. I would be like, well, you can't have this, we can't have that. Then you look at my search history on my Instagram,

and it's animals eating animals. And it's our Mars galore. My wife was like, why do you have these women with these impossible tits? I was like, I don't know, I fell down. I faked an injury. I was like, somebody got my phone. I don't know, I don't look at that stuff.

It was so embarrassing. I'm an old man, I'm disgusting. But the point is, the point is that we all, the founding fathers knew that, that yes, yes, they will try to kill you. I want to transition to the next story. I want to transition to that. You didn't write anything try to kill you I want to transition to the next door. I think I agree with you didn't write anything. I wrote that No, I want to go to the next door But by the way, no for what is where I actually really like the position Callan took

Because Callan went to the reasonable side try to get all the information before Jumping to conclusion assuming that automatically it's that I want to know what's in the agreement, but I want to go to the next story I got a few more stories to go through here. So Jamie diamond check this out America's most powerful banker issue was ominous warning about the US economy Jamie diamond warned that a hard landing for the US economy is possible noting could we Actually see one of course and express concerns about stagflation which he described as the worst outcome which inflation rising high unemployment and slow growth He remarked the odds have been higher than other people think and noted similarities to the 1970s economic conditions.

Diamond highlighted ongoing economic challenges, stating unemployment has been below 4% now for a year and a half or two years and added that despite a potential recession, consumers are in pretty good shape. However, he warned that inflation is stickier than people think and added that despite a potential recession, consumers are in pretty good shape. However, he warned that inflation is stickier than people think and suggested that interest rates might still increase a little bit due to persistent fiscal and monetary stimulus. Okay, this is the same guy that just announced that he will be retiring fairly soon. Not something that his timetable isn't five years anymore. It's a lot shorter than that 68 years old I mean some people at one point

We're talking about potentially this guy running for president this guy's pretty heavyweight guy for him What do you what do you think about Jamie and what do you think about what he's saying with the economy? I always think and I'll ask you a question with this I always think that no matter how good you are as an economic animal trying to predict something with that many moving parts over a period of time is always going, you're always going to fall short in one way or another. And so I think when you are an investor, you should always assume air on the side of caution and assume everything's going to go to shit.

That's why you hedge your bets. But so I always, no matter who it is, even if it's J.B. Diamond, I'm gonna listen to it, but I'm probably gonna take it with at least a grain of salt. I'm not saying it's not right, but really trying to predict something with that many moving parts, an organism as complex as the U.S. economy,

which is I don't know how many trillions of dollars. You know, think about that. What is it, a $5 trillion economy? Do you know how long ago, you know how long ago a billion seconds was? 32 years ago Okay, so a trillion seconds. I think is 32,000 years ago that would that would be how much a trillion dollars is just think about That for a sec. Okay, so so that's a billion seconds. Okay, that's how much money a trillion dollars is So you're dealing with a huge thing.

So let me ask you this question. You've done very well as you're an economic animal man. And how much, how right have you been in your predictions? 51%. Thank you. Oh, you can't be, no way. Thank you for that honest answer. No, no way.

And you're a smart dude who's made his money. No, I mean, to me, everything is like, you know, look, obviously what I know I can bet on that I have 90% confident in is whatever I operate. Anything I operate, I got confident in. Okay? So if anybody thinks the future doesn't look bright is because you don't have confidence in your ability to work, improve and strategize. If somebody is willing to work, treat people fairly,

work their asses off, keep trying to find ways to recreate themselves and improve themselves, it's impossible for you not to be optimistic about the future. I don't know if that makes sense. The number one step of where confidence for a person should be coming from that everything's going to work itself out is in your abilities to improve and figure things out. That's one. Two, let's talk finances, things we have no control over. Remember how I said there's a handful of people that are part of the, you can't figure them

out like where they are and I said, Comey's one of them? This is one thing that's happened in the last four years with the economy that's kind of weird. Almost every single time we've ever printed money, gold's gone up. And not by a little bit. It's gone up a lot, right? Every time we print money. This time around we printed money, gold didn't go up. Now I had Dan Bongino on here yesterday and we're having a conversation with him.

He said, well, because the money that would typically go to gold as an asset class went to Bitcoin Which he may not be wrong by the way, okay? He may not be wrong because Bitcoin now as a market cap itself is a trillion dollar market cap So what if there was no Bitcoin? What does that money go to where do libertarians typically put their money in gold? So it's an interesting breakdown to see again the last few years, it's been so fast. It's hitting so fast that we're watching and thinking, man, this is exactly what's going to happen. That's exactly what's going to happen. And it hasn't happened yet. The other one that's kind of complicated is the following. Market rates have been high. 7%? For how long now?

Year and a half that the rates have been gone gone up and they haven't lowered them Whatever the timeline is how come there's not been a crash in real estate yet. Why is that? Why why haven't properties dropped 25% or 20% right and you know What's the one of the things that you know the argument that we brought up yesterday is? Hey when you print as much money as that we print it in the last few years that money's in something circulation So maybe everything just went up 40% So even if there's a crash maybe right now we are experiencing a 40% crash But we don't see it and feel it because there's 40% more money circulating in a marketplace

Maybe we are having a 40% crash These are the things that the last ever since we we started printing money in 08, the way we did, and now it's become a habit, the way of measuring and predicting the economy has changed drastically. So interesting. So that's the part where Ray Dalio has been saying for how many years when he wrote the, when did Ray Dalio write principles? When did we read principles?

Five years ago? At least. Was it 1920? What year would you say? Love him. You know how many years he's been saying the next great depression is on its way? Yeah. This is a 20 billion dollar guy saying the great next depression is on its way. He's been wrong for how many years now? He's been wrong for it. That's

what I said. He's also the guy that said cash is no longer king in 2019 and COVID happened all of a sudden cash is king. You know what I like about him though? The one thing I took from him, he goes can't beat the market. I beat the market for a long time can't beat the market just keep that in mind over the long haul if I can add to this Yeah, when these people make these sort of predictions or give sort of their forecast always ask two things What's their level of credibility and who's their loyalty to we talked about the loyalty with Trump and a second ago. So All right. Let's go through the list. Ray Dalio, high credibility, loyalty, Bridgewater Capital. Okay, he's one of the top hedge fund guys in the world.

You have someone like Jamie Dimon, high credibility, who's his loyalty to? Chase Bank of America. Then you have other guys like, all right, so Robert Kiyosaki, he makes predictions all the time. Who's his's his loyalty to his brand? He's also selling books, courses. He kind of predicts doomsday type stuff. And then you have these extremists like what's that dent? Harry Dent, this guy, he came out in 2023.

This year, mark my word, it's all going 90% it's done. It's over. He's a complete doomsday economic prepper type of guy Yeah, the economy the stock market was up 25% where you at Harry so There are crashes about the snake, but crashes is different. Yeah, 50% crash 25% crash is different 90% He said do you remember that was that the number? Yeah, so what's there? You talk about snake oil salesman. We just talked about in the last segment There's people that you can trust there's people that have loyalty Credibility, I don't know where I think I think I think it goes back to the same thing People that are like, you know, Gary Brekha. He had a problem with at the beginning, right?

We're going back in for why because it's like I know It's like that's the problem. So there's some people like that in finance as well. No, look, the key in life is, man, you ain't going to get all your decisions right. Everything in life is like shooting free throws. You just want to keep going up, 60% of the time you're right with your parenting style, 70%. If you're in the 60 to 80% mark, you're doing good. You're getting better in life. But that's not... You can make a lot of money selling.

I like that free throw. I like that free throw. I was a 90 percent guy. But this is the part... Think about it. Were you really? Yeah. Free throw shooter.

You were a 90 percent free throw shooter. Yeah, not a great three point shooter. Patrick, the question is who was in your face when you were taking those shots? Yeah, I mean, listen, my elbow was on the side. Free throw nobody. All right, we got a couple more stories before we wrap. Bye bye. Let's go to 50 Cent and Diddy.

I don't know how close you're following this story. I'm curious to know what your thoughts are going to be on this, so let's kind of go through this. By the way, for those of you guys that are texting, 47 left. Out of 250, 47 left. Go to VTMerch.com. Get your new green hat. Memorial Day weekend, 47 left. Go to VTMerch.com. Get your new green hat Memorial Day weekend, 47 left before they sell out. Okay. So pull up the Cameron CNN.

Cameron. Cameron. Cameron tells you how much I listen to Cameron. But pull up the Cameron video here. Vinny's telling me he was a respected rapper. Who is this guy? This guy's a respected rapper in New York. He's both rapper, Dipset, Jay-Z, he's like, he's dude he's he's as hip-hop New York rap as it gets. Okay, I love it. He had a couple of big songs in the night. When he's opening up the drink maybe I don't know if you know exactly where it's at or not. Right here. Go for it. Play the clip watch it's very uncomfortable. She's asking him about what happened with Diddy and the apology video go for it.

Can you tell us a little bit more about that? I mean is there Is there something known in the industry about how Diddy treated his artists? So I'm gonna get some cheeks after this horsepower some cheese So I appreciate what me said and of course, that's my brother so if he felt that way then he felt that way I can't really tell you how puff moves or anything like that makes me know better than me because he was signed the puff I was But my show does come on at 8 a.m. Eastern on YouTube. It's called It Is What It Is. And y'all make sure y'all check it out. I mean, I might get some more information

out of Mace from there, but for me to tell you how Puff acting with that, I don't know, I never was signed to him. Yeah. What about the industry in general? I mean, so many people have pointed out that Diddy couldn't get away with this stuff if there weren't a lot of people protecting him. Do you think that's the case?

Who the talent agent for this joint? Like, you think I'll be sitting around watching what Diddy do and all this? I didn't know this was a Diddy joint that invited me to. Who booked me for this joint? I'll be sitting around watching Diddy and all that. Thanks for joining us. Thank you for your time tonight. I'll be standing around watching Diddy and all that. Thanks for joining us. Thank you for your time tonight. Thank you for having me. You enjoyed it.

That poor woman. She's like, oh God, I was going to get some cheeks. I'm going to get some cheeks out of this. Yeah. So what do you think about the whole scandal? What do you think about the whole raid, Diddy, everything? I think Diddy is a bad guy and I think I'm sorry But you know, I've had my issues with the me too thing

But also when when when you have 12 when you have that many women with the same story and you have a video of you Beating a girl up like that. You're a scumbag and and then you have this apology and which is all about him You know, this is apology had nothing to do with her. It had all to do with him. Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me. I, I this, I that, I that. And again, when you see people like this in Hollywood, when they do this stuff, there are many, many, many stories

over many, many, many years of this guy being not such a good person. And I'm not just talking about, you know, even if you didn't hear about the sexual stuff, it's more about him as a business guy, him taking credit for things. Hype Williams. Hype Williams, a friend of mine worked with Hype Williams

and P. Diddy back in the 90s. And Hype was the guy who directed all those music videos. When those music videos showed up on MTV back in the day P diddy was put on those videos as the director my friend walked up to pipe at a party and said hype I was there p was walking around with a megaphone talking once in a while you directed it That was your vision you did everything and hypes the artist and I went I can't even talk about it, man I can't even that's what he did. I can't even talk about it, man. I can't even, that's what he did. I can't even talk about it and walked away. I heard that story, oh, I don't know, 20 years ago, whatever it was. I've never forgotten it. And I see this guy, you know, releasing doves for his,

for Jennifer Lopez, you know, it's all about him. It's always about him. He buys his 16 year old Maybach. It's all about him. The guy has no values really. He's just, it's all about him, whether he's giving his kid a present, whether he's honoring his wife by releasing doves. I've never seen a bigger narcissist in my life. He's a pathological narcissist, not a good guy. Again, you ever had interaction with him? No, no. I've heard things and stuff but I never went to his party. You ever heard things from people that are close to him that you don't want to give the names like Yes, yes, the answer is yes. I know a lot of things. Yeah, but how crazy of a thing Have you heard the reason I don't talk about that is I don't again. I wasn't there

I don't know but I saw that video. I saw that that's all I need to see Well, all I got to see is something like that And I believe everything she's telling me, everything. I agree, I agree. And mind you, that's what we saw in a hallway video of a hotel, right? If he's doing that in the hotel in front of everybody, what is he doing outside of that? Do you feel me?

People are so, sometimes people are so bad. You can't, I ever tell you, my buddy's a billionaire. And he said to me, I'm naive. I always tend to give people the benefit of the doubt. And he said, Brian, the problem with you is that you see the a-hole after five years. We see the a-hole in five minutes. And he goes, you got to start realizing there are people that are very, even though you can't imagine people being that big of a shithead, they're out there.

And he's just a bad guy, I think. He's a bad guy. I think with Diddy, you're absolutely right about the apology video. He's not sorry. He's sorry he bad guy. I think he's a bad guy. I think with Diddy you're absolutely right about the apology video He's not sorry. He's sorry. He got caught. Yeah period and that's what's going on there and you know, like You're you've been in LA. How long now? I've been there for 30 years. Okay, so did he has two houses where? One in Miami. Yeah one in LA. So and he's from New York. I don't know much time. He spends in New York. Yeah You know, you like you've been to the Playboy Mansion ever. Yep. So have he's from New York. I don't know much time he spends in New York. You know, like you've been to the Playboy Mansion ever. Yep. So have I a few times. Right. What's my point?

I've been to a Diddy party also before. But there's a big difference between going outside on the lawn in the Playboy Mansion. Yep. Between getting versus getting in the house. You don't get in the house. Maybe been to the grotto. Yeah. And you're certainly not going upstairs to the bedroom. Yep. So you don't I appreciate you You don't really know what's going on inside the house. I do you could say I mean I do but okay But I have no clue what's going on like you had a clue when you went like even it's a party No, no, what I'm asking is I get that but was there like even when you were going were the streets in Miami talking about? No, oh zero and I know I know guys what year how far back are we are we going?

2010 it's not even about but I know guys that that ran Siroc I mean buddies of mine that ran Siroc in the clubs in Miami They would show they got the the Siroc boys like all these things But you would hear diddy party stories, but nothing like this. Yeah, like what we never talked about diddy like this But it's not you guys five years ago guys yeah, so they've been tight no No, I've never been a fan. No, I've never I've always In my eyes based on what I've read and the people I've talked to I've always seen him as the reason why Tupac's not here Oh, wow, I've always seen that so that for me. It's not even this for me

It's just I don't and Tupac was your guy. He gives me the wrong vibe for from day one for me. Yeah, he's you know There's something about I love what Jordan Peterson said As I get older I get more religious or at least I God is in my life, you know And and he said something really interesting when you violate every Principle every rule that let's just take the Judeo-Christian ethic. When you violate basically every rule that has been laid out for you and say something like the Bible. Now you can say whatever you want about the Bible, it still seems to be relevant.

Why is the story endured after all this time? Maybe there's a reason, I don't know. But Jordan Peterson said something really cool. He said When you when you embrace that dark side when you are your own God Which is what it is when you are your own God, which is a form of idolatry God's fire will feel like hell and right now bro He's his everything he's built is being burned down and he was realizing he's been living in a house of cards And and that fire is burning down his status his power his wealth his maybe even his freedom Everything about him that he was standing on is being reduced to ash and that can be looked at as a purification

He can bear his cross get closer to truth, or he can decide to fight it and continue down this path to health. I love the fact that you brought up Jordan Peterson, Callan, because I did my other show that I do, Sawzcast, here. I had the guy Rob Smith on, the gay, black, conservative. We had this conversation, and we talked about him having a God complex, Messiah complex. When you have that much status wealth notoriety everything like what else is there and he talked about how in Hollywood when you have all this like even straight guys like art I've already had all the chicks let me go try something new like that and he kind of equated that to Diddy and then Jordan Peterson had a quote you know every man

must learn to be a monster an absolute monster but then you need to learn how to control it and what did he wasn't able to do, he was a savage, you see in that video, I'm a freaking savage, I can do anything, I get whatever I want. He was an absolute monster savage, he just didn't know how to control it. And then Rob said, he said he's going to get redemption, you know, he said he's going to get, I said, is he any way he's going to get redemption? He goes, yeah, he can get it. I go, how?

He goes, through the black church, they'll embrace him. I said, What do you mean? They go, they'll embrace him. You talked about the Bible Christianity will say God has, I've restored my faith. I've asked for forgiveness. That's the he goes, call it right now. 612 18 months, whatever happens with Diddy. He's going to go through the churches to get redemption. But that's a Christian thing, isn't it? It's like you've been lost and now you're found. Yeah, but you know what? I don't respect people like that. Like if he goes to like the church route, and mind you, I am a Christian, I'm a practitioner, I go to church, I pray every single morning, I pray at night, I pray during the day once in a while for somebody like that that's just going to use Christianity and God and Jesus Christ as an insurance policy.

Like, oh my God, I better have it. No, no, know that Christianity has to be a way of life brother if god isn't like he needs god more than anything but this is like that last minute well oh forgive me no no it has to be embedded in you that god bro i've heard stories about him brian and but we're from habro we live in hollywood i mean i live there forever yeah you know what he does and i'm not even to say the names because I'm not that guy Very prominent huge actor that love loves me we go to the house we chill these dudes would be like yo This shit's about to get crazy right now to some of the girls who you guys should leave I know you're talking about I know I know you know PBT thing about this y'all because they respected us and they know what who I was that listen we love you But this is the part where yeah y'all should just bounce,

because it's gonna get crazier than what I'm in. And by the way, there's a difference though. If you wanna get freaky, all good, man. You wanna get weird and freaky good. It's when you start getting abusive. It's when you're hitting people. It's when you're doing all this weird shit, like come on, man.

And by recording people and having cameras in the room where you leave, Ryan somebody goes. Hey Brian I need this I want to be in this move. I want this and you go not dog. I'm sorry and they go Oh really look at that. That's you That girl you want to get what's the best song about freaky man? Freaky tonight Hey, maybe deep did he was also a gay man and his brand and his sexuality didn't meet. There's a lot of stories about him basically being like, hey, look, there's your dick,

that's my dick. She's between us, now she's not. Woohoo! I mean, that's what it sounds like. And by the way, the guy that's capitalizing off of this is 50 Cent. He sells his documentary on Diddy to Netflix after bidding war. Amazing. Reportedly sold his documentary on the sexual abuse allegations against Diddy.

The multi-part documentary titled Diddy Do It? Produced by G-Unit Film and Television Studios was the subject of a massive bidding war between multiple networks and streaming services. 50 cent confirmed that the sale by the way of commenting on TMZ's article on X, he first complained that they used a fat boy picture of him speculating that the reason was to do Netflix choosing his Diddy documentary over theirs, which was sold to 2B and premiered on April the 28th. It's okay, guys. We're all making great television.

Mine just happened to be the best. Netflix wins the bidding war, but if more victims keep coming out, I'm going to need more episodes," he wrote. So he's not playing around. The picture is right, too. Look at the picture of 50. You know what Russell Simmons did? He's a face.

He just... Reminds me of this picture right here, PBD. Russell Simmons, 12 women came out with hard R rape allegations. He just went to Thailand. He was like, I'll see you later. He just went to Thailand. People kind of forgot. Yeah. He's living in Bali. You tell him I'd Russell brand Russell, Russell Simmons, Jeff Jam. By the way, 50 cent. You talked about checks and balances earlier. What percentage is he just capitalizing on just, I'm this dude's enemy or, and what percentage do you think is credible?

Because they have a major history together. So he hates him. Okay. So is there credibility? There's hatred. Right. Or is there no, no, 50 cent made no balance about trolling him. The minute this stuff came out it was crazy

Oh, he's been trolling too about the suspect behavior and did bubble He is did he is and even Andrew Schultz can attest like a true gangster Like yeah, he made his money when the FBI when the FBI comes in with a battering ram and takes down Restraining walls or whatever. It's called retaining walls They're not doing that because they don't have anything. Yeah, they have a lot. My friend who went to jail for six years for drug trafficking told me he goes when the feds show up in their black SUVs and there's a line of them, please understand you done.

My buddy goes how long you been watching me and they were like a year and they go the good news is if you turn on X Y & Z you're not gonna do a day in jail and he goes I'm not doing that so he spent six years in Fort Dix. Gangster. When he came out they were like hey we'll take care of you but at the end and when he got into Fort Dix he gets there they loved him right away and they were like man I hope you're not a narc I hope you're not a snitch if you're a snitch man I'm gonna it'll be a bummer cuz and when they found out he didn't turn they threw a party For him. That's he said if I had had women there, I never would have left. He said I had a black

Shitty food miserable the roof was off the thing. I hated it But if I had had women actually I wouldn't have left we hung out all day lifted What's this whole story that they're gonna maybe try to get him with the Rico act obviously done all your yeah Rico said there's a whole different story here with Rico and we'll just wrap up I'll read this story and I'm will wrap up because 1130 is here Did he reportedly prepares for possible Rico indictment Sean that he comes may be praying for the best but he prepares for the worst rumor has it that he's Embattled hip-hop figure has put together legal team

Dream team as he anticipates a possible Rico indictment any day now source tells media take out that together a legal team, dream team, as he anticipates a possible RICO indictment any day now. Source tells media take out that the rapper's legal team has warned him of the aftermath of the federal investigation for alleged sex trafficking and other allegations against him. They believe that federal indictment could be handed out any day now. By the way, while I had Diddy's lawyer on, Rob, you remember when we had his lawyer on? I asked his lawyer, wasn't he the lawyer that was the $30 million case lawyer? Like he's the lawyer that represented him, that negotiated the $30 million with Cassie just a year ago. But now for this time around, he chose not to represent him.

And I asked the question, I said, any reason? Did he call you to have you represent? I can't answer that question, it's a client. I said, but he must have called you, you've always done good for him. Why did you say no to him? Like I said, I didn't, I said, but you know he called you, like we know he called you. Are you very good at what you do? Yes.

This is the guy, Benjamin Brafman, if you don't know who he is, he's like the godfather of lawyers, right? The way he dodged that question. So he's called him and he said no. If the Rico thing goes, I am so curious to know if he's going to come out wanting to represent him because there's going to be a lot of money on the table as well. This guy's going to be making money on this Diddy case, but I'm watching to see if this guy comes out. Anyways, gang, if you enjoyed today's podcast with Brian Callen, send him a Manect. Give
