Starting point is 00:00:00 Did you ever think you would make it? I feel I'm supposed to take sweetly the thurly. I know this life meant for me. Yeah, why would you plan on galiah when we got bad data? Value payment, giving values, contagiousness, world, entrepreneur, as we can't no value that hate it. I'd be running home, you look what I've become. I'm the under one.

Starting point is 00:00:23 Millay. Millet. All right, so happy Thanksgiving, everybody. We came in this morning, had no idea Kelly was going to prepare this in town. Literally. Turkey, gravy. We got the whole nine going on here. Kelly. And we decided last minute to do podcasts today to cover some of the stories

Starting point is 00:00:41 and spend some time with you before you go out and spend the time with your family while Tom makes that weird noise. But you mean talking? Yeah. No, it's good. It's the coming up. Tommy Turkey. Tommy makes these special effects like he does,

Starting point is 00:00:56 like he thinks it adds to the spice. He thinks it does. What we appreciate, it's like, you know. You know, some people have those buttons, you press with the sound. Yeah, it's outward. I think sometimes he's that. By the way, there's a new shirt for you, there's a new look for you.

Starting point is 00:01:09 You look great. I got pay-lass for ideas, so I would like that. Really? That don't blow all your money, your paycheck on, just save the money. Yeah, so, okay. All right, first of all, whatever you guys do, listen, if you're driving a Bentley on the border,

Starting point is 00:01:21 slow down a little bit, right? Like, it's serious, it's real, don't be reckless. Everybody thought there was a situation going on with this car, we'll talk slow down a little bit, right? Like it's seriously, don't be reckless. Everybody thought there was a situation going on with this car. We'll talk about that a little bit. Israel Hamas. Yeah. Reach hostage, release, deal in exchange for four day pause

Starting point is 00:01:36 and fighting. Pretend you're like saying, look. Potential. Yeah. Which is not a good, like bargaining, like, listen, we'll give us this, but we'll think about it. It's gonna go right back to bonding. Yeah, both sides are just kind of trying to say,

Starting point is 00:01:48 well, because the other side is afraid of us. That's why they're agreeing to do this. But one side is saying, if we do it, we're still gonna come back and kill you. But take four days off and have dinner with your family. We'll come back for a revisit. This is like World War One where the, all the fighters came out and they played soccer one day

Starting point is 00:02:04 on Christmas and they They killed each other. Were you in that game? No, no, no, I was watching. I was not actually there. Sam Altman returns to open AI in a bizarre reversal of fortunes. Binance CEO, Zhao, to plead guilty to federal charges stepping on. I think he's agreeing to pay 50 million out of them.

Starting point is 00:02:25 It's the guy CZ, what happened? To crypto and NFC and all those guys, Musk to donate ex advertising revenue to hospitals in Israel and Gaza. Most Americans tip 15% or less at a restaurant and some tip nothing. Here's a poll to talk about that. 40% of Americans are afraid to walk alone at night.

Starting point is 00:02:51 Most in decades, polls say like, what did they do? How did they find this stuff? Like to find out who's afraid of walking during the alone at night, maybe we'll see if some of you guys can run a poll when we do the podcast topic. We'll get to it and We'll do the poll. Gun ownership reaches record high with American electorate.

Starting point is 00:03:11 US existing home sales hits more than 13 year low prices pushes push higher. US home sales on pace for the worst year since 93 that's 30 years. Suzanne Seranem dumped by Hollywood agent, UT over anti-Jewish rant, John Loveitz tears into Colbert Kimmel for pushing political agenda in late night, Scarborough, you got to see this video, makes Doomsday prediction for Trump's second term, talking about he's gonna execute everyone and anyone. Little random, but we'll say what he's got to say. Obama, Ex-National Security Council, advisor smiles during perp walk. You just have to watch what

Starting point is 00:03:52 this guy has to say, very random, weird. Men may benefit from their looks in the workplace more than women do. We'll debate that. I don't know if that's true or not. Watch this. Jamie Foxx accused of sexual assault in Nulossu and you know who just got accused this morning? Eric, Mayor Eric Adams accused of sexually assaulting woman in 93. New York, 93? New York, 1993 in bar. There's no going on with this at this point.

Starting point is 00:04:16 It's tied to real estate because that's the last some real estate, the 93, 1993. So we'll talk about that as well. Anyways, let's get right into it Tom. Let's start off with Sam Altman returns to open AI, which to me the last few days for Sam Altman, if there's if there's been anything, he now knows exactly who his enemies are, who's on his side, who to be careful with, who not to get closer to. But here's what happens. Sam Altman reinstated as open AI CEO, following a

Starting point is 00:04:42 surprise ouster with the company announcing we have reached an agreement in principle for Altman reinstated as OpenAICO, following a surprise ouster. With the company announcing we have reached an agreement in principle for Altman to return to OpenAICO with a new initial board, bread tailor, a former co-seal of Salesforce, will share the new board alongside Larry Summers and Adam the Angelo. Altman expresses enthusiasm saying he looks forward to building an OpenA AI strong partnership with Microsoft, the company's primary financial banker. There are circumstances surrounding the Altman's removal and reappointment, remained mysterious, but tensions between Altman's push for aggressive AI development and the original board's cautious approach plate a significant role time. Wow.

Starting point is 00:05:24 Well, happy Thanksgiving, Sam. and the losses approach plate a significant role. Tom. Wow. Well, happy Thanksgiving, Sam. You're back in the chair, having Thanksgiving. And it was kind of funny. Elon Musk put out a tweet on this and it says, guys, this was pointless. This was like, you're back where you started. This was an interesting marketing stunt.

Starting point is 00:05:37 Who won? Who lost, Tom? Who looked embarrassing? Who looked embarrassing was the board. The board looked very embarrassing. They were, we now see many stories out there. And the board had, you know, Elias Askiver, comes to the board, says, you know,

Starting point is 00:05:54 he's not being honest with us, he's not being forthright, blah, blah, blah, we've all read the articles. And then the board looked really clumsy. There was no legal consultation. If they consulted legal, they shouldn't have those lawyers out there to talk to the media. There was no like crisis communication group they were using. There was no PR firm. And as soon as this leaked out, they also kind of

Starting point is 00:06:14 missed what was the temperature of the employees? Because 700 employees said, I'm with Sam. So the winner in all this is Microsoft. Microsoft has unbelievable control over OpenAI. Yeah, there's going to be this board and things like this. But Microsoft put the $13 billion in and Thrive Capital and Coastal Avengers, they got everybody back together. So the winners were all of those people that put money into the funds that were invested by Thrive Capital. Like, let's say you padded, put money into a fund at Thrive Capital,

Starting point is 00:06:50 and they invested in OpenAI. You're making phone calls when this is going on, and say, guys, did our, did my investment just go up and smoke? I depend on you guys Thrive Capital who assimilates a fund and invest it. The winner is Microsoft, and the winner of the investors because the band gets back together.

Starting point is 00:07:08 And also I think it's a good thing that Sam and Greg Brockman are not on the board. Now they have a stronger board along with Larry Summers, who comes from a regulated side, the treasury side. I think that's good. So I think the winner is, I think, Microsoft. And it's a good thing to have open AI with a more structured board.

Starting point is 00:07:27 Is the fear that open AI, Sam is so ambitious to accelerate the process of advancement with AI that we may lose control and AI may be more powerful than those who are humanists such as Elon Musk. You have summed up in one sentence, what many people said was the debate going on between half the board and then Sam and Greg.

Starting point is 00:07:46 Yeah. This is kind of what I was referring to the other day. I actually think this is a great thing for who humanity. All we hear constantly is that AI is going to take over the world and that humans are no longer exist and we're going to be subjugated citizens to basically AI generated robots that are going to be controlling us as overlords. I think in the short term, this was obviously not a good look for open AI and chat GPT and SAM and everything,

Starting point is 00:08:11 but I think as the dust settles, this would be good for all of us because the one thing that they did receive from all this is clarity. The board didn't know where SAM was, SAM did was sort of like keeping things close to the vest, not essentially trusting the board. Us regular human non-android individuals are like, I don't even know what the hell's going on.

Starting point is 00:08:29 These people are about to take over the world and the planet. And at the very least, we have some clarity on what they're doing now, what their intentions are. And then we're bringing on these sort of grownups in the room, especially Larry Summers. Like not only was he the secretary of the treasury back in the, what, bush days, Obama days? Yeah, I'm a him and Tim Geithner were Obama's guys.

Starting point is 00:08:48 Exactly. He was also the president of Harvard. So this is a guy who has educational background, government background, finance background, and it's sort of just sort of a level headed player in all this. And I think at the end of the day, the humanist side of things certainly won. How is it, what is the stock price doing, Pat? Well, once it's announced, it's a private company. It's not out there.

Starting point is 00:09:10 Oh, it's not, they haven't even gone public open AI? No, it's not out there yet. They had an implied valuation. 86. 86 billion dollars, where independent investors were going to buy shares from employees willing to sell. So that gives the employees the ability to monetize their shares after four years of work investing their-

Starting point is 00:09:28 Are they saying that they're going to be- Is there like a date of when they're going to go public? Probably at some point, I have a- How many questions? Let me ask you a question. What do you fear with AI? You're a pretty level-headed guy, but the same time, you can also entertain opposing ideas. What do you fear with AI?

Starting point is 00:09:47 So I fear at AI, the same thing, if you've ever Googled the phrase, market, stock market, circuit breakers, you'll see that phrase. Circuit breaker flips today on XYZ stock. So what I fear is autonomous engines. And autonomous engines is like the same way people fear self-driving cars. It's not perfect all the time. Bad things happen. We saw that cruise taxis actually has to suspend operations after they hit a person, ran into wet concrete, ran over construction barricades in San Francisco.

Starting point is 00:10:20 So the word autonomous is what concerns me. And when you see autonomous trading and see here it is circuit breakers or temporary measures that halt trading, decurb panic selling and stock exchanges. The panic selling is not people. The panic selling is the autonomous engines that see a stock moving and they all follow each other. It's like if you see those big pictures, you know, from National Geographic, where all the anal open, the Serengeti, one tiger shows up, excuse me, one lion shows up, and all the animals of the zebras turn at the same time. It's like beautiful artwork.

Starting point is 00:10:52 They run at the same time. Ladies and gentlemen, that is what program autonomous trading does on the stock market. Something spooks them, and then there's a circuit breaker where the stock market says, to spend the stock. And what they're really saying is is stop all the program engines. So I fear the word autonomous and engine and AI can allow more autonomous engines to happen in things and you get to think about electric power grid. You got to think about a lot of stuff.

Starting point is 00:11:18 And so that's the humanity side that I worry about is when these engines or things go autonomous and it doesn't take anybody to be a PhD to figure this out. Just look at the self-driving cars and look at what autonomous trading does on the stock market. There are times when they get out of hand and there's got to be something and the stock market uses circuit breakers. Autonomous cars, their license was pulled and they had to stop until they do more research.

Starting point is 00:11:43 That's what you fear. I fear the word autonomous engines, things running amuck. Have you watched a movie creator? Creator just came out. Have you seen it? No, you see it. So I normally wouldn't recommend any of these new movies coming out. This is actually very good movie worth watching. I think it's on Apple TV now you can order, there was in the theater.

Starting point is 00:12:04 The story about creator is, it's a, I'll just science fiction, it's the creator of AI. So set in 27, the 15 years after a nuclear detonation in LA and a war against AI and ex-special forces agent is recruited to hunt down the kill and kill the creator. The creator is, you know how kill and kill the creator the creator is You know how our creator God the creator of AI he wants to kill the creator who has developed a mysterious weapon with the power to end the war right so What levels like how advanced can AI get you know sometimes you watch these these movies and they take you places and then these movies 20, 30 years later become a reality.

Starting point is 00:12:47 You're like, oh, yeah, yeah, that's normal. Now it's a regular Tuesday today, you know, but how crazy do you think it gets? It's something that at all even consumes your mind as somebody that's got two kids. Yeah, Pat, all this time. It doesn't consume my mind, but I'm very, very aware of it. Remember, the circuit breakers were made by the stock market to stop that. They have software now that teachers use to see if a paper was written with chat GBT or something.

Starting point is 00:13:14 Rob, go back to that. You see what I mean, Pat? They put, you have to put a contrasting control. It's like, when you invent the accelerator, somebody has to invent the break. Put it that way, simple as that. Watch this. Look at this article, Rajasvan.

Starting point is 00:13:28 Go up a little bit. This is 10 Things movies from the past got right about the future. Okay, go down. Let's see what these 10 things are. Okay, a trip to moon, 1902 lunar exploration. Okay. For those of us who believe we actually

Starting point is 00:13:41 went to the moon, right, Vin? Airplane 2, 1982. Great movie. Airport body scanners in the back. Okay, for those of us who believe we actually went to the moon right then airplane to 1982 Airport body scanners in the back okay Star Trek the motion picture cell phones all right that's 79 Fair enough smart house smart homes Smart home smart house interesting Disney the cable guy technology integration great movie. movie. Okay, keep going, keep going. Hackers, VR headsets, wow, 1995, keep going. Okay, Blade Runner, 1982, electric billboards.

Starting point is 00:14:14 That was incredible. And it's now like everywhere, keep going. What a great movie. Total recall, self-driving cars, 1990, 33 years later, it's here, just like the car was on the watch. By far, in a way, the best movie on this 33 years later, it's here. Just like that. My far away the best movie on this panel so far on this list. It may be his best movie, well, Terminator 2 probably.

Starting point is 00:14:33 Keep going, keep going. What's that? Okay, 2000 Space Odyssey tablets and videos, video calls, 1968, they predicted that. Minority report target it adds,-2, 21 years ago. Okay. And then that's it. So to me, do you fear it? Path.

Starting point is 00:14:52 I saw a documentary, I want to say 10 years ago, called the Transcendental Man. This guy Hugo de Garri, G-A-R-I-S. Great pronunciation. That was an awesome. I wasn't going to say Geras. Pat,, I was gonna say, Garis. He'll pat this guy who's born in, he's an Australian retired researcher in the subfield of artificial intelligence

Starting point is 00:15:10 and evolved hardware. He became known in the 90s, this is the 90s bro, for research of the use of genetic algorithms to evolve artificial neural networks using three dimensions, cellular automata, which inside the field programmable gate arrays.

Starting point is 00:15:24 By the way, he claims that this approach would enable the creation of what he terms artificial brains, which would quickly surpass human levels of intelligence. He's saying, these things will think a billion times faster than how we think in a nanosecond. He has a belief, this is, by the way, he's 75, 76 years old, that there's going to be a major war between the supporters of opponents of intelligent machines, resulting in billions of deaths is almost inevitable before the end of the 21st century. He suggests AI systems may simply eliminate the human race and humans would be powerless to stop them because of technological singularities.

Starting point is 00:16:00 Pat, we're creating things that are going to start thinking on their own. And he said, when you look at an ant pat, do you even think twice about killing its, you don't think twice. We're going to be those ants to these things because they're going to be like, who are these people telling us what to do and then they're going to take you? You really believe that? I 100% believe that. I think that's the fear. That's my fear. And that's the documentary. You want to, you want to eye waking a documentary is this transcendent man? 100%. So you're talking about like SkyNet, you know.

Starting point is 00:16:29 T2, SkyNet became self-aware. Yeah, once it started, and by the way, they're, by the way, I do, that's the one thing. Like if you think about it, AI, it is when it becomes self-aware and it can realize how powerful it is. It was a cartoon also, they did a couple years ago. A lot of them. Full of time. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:16:47 Cartoon, they did a couple years ago when the AI realizes how powerful it is and it's came over. And Pat, think about it. Remember Rob, there was Pat, which company started doing the say I think and it was no filter. They started asking questions like, what do you want to do?

Starting point is 00:17:01 And you know what I said? I want to kill everybody. I want to do nuclear war and I want to be in charge. There's no got. I saw that. And then they shut down the system. It's like, we're playing with something that's very, very dangerous and I think you said this, Pat.

Starting point is 00:17:13 What's it called when it's like, IAZ help, everything's helping us. It's really easy for us to use it. But we don't realize that this thing one day is going to creep up and it's going to take over. There is an AI researcher at Google. And Rob, you can search this. who was like a whistleblower. It was later semi-discredited, remember this?

Starting point is 00:17:31 Or he said that they didn't experiments and the AI demonstrated, you know, kind of an emotional response or a, and he was later fired. Was that name? Yeah. Pat, you don't think so? You don't think that one day,

Starting point is 00:17:49 these things that, especially if it's gonna think on its own and it's thinking a billion times, I think Brandon told us something about this, quantum computing, this thing is going to own you. And you're not, it's not gonna wanna. Who will fire Blake Lamonde, engineer who claimed AI chat about as a person. Oh, I mean, I'll give you a little ever since the first industrial

Starting point is 00:18:11 revolution, right, what was the advent of the steam engine, right, we're now approaching what the fifth industrial revolution, what's industrial revolution basically replacing human jobs, whether it's, you it's pushing stuff, building stuff, slamming stuff, just masonry, to basically utilize what machines do. Now it's so the first industrial revolution was what the steam engine, and then it went into mass production, like factories, everything with that. And the third industrial revolution was digital internet,

Starting point is 00:18:46 everything that we've known as far as growing up in the 80s and the 90s, the fourth industrial revolution, which are sort of in the process of right now, was everything with blockchain and technology and cell phones, everything like internet 2.0 or 3.0 or web 3 that you hear about. And the fifth one is that, is essentially what we're talking about here is where basically humans and machines become one.

Starting point is 00:19:11 Oh, God. And it's scary. And that's why going back to the initial premise of this conversation is like everything that happened with OpenAI this week, I think is a good thing for what humanity? Because if these things progresses to the point where like we have no clue, let's face it, like we're some pretty decently smart guys,

Starting point is 00:19:30 whatever we get it, we have no clue what they're building out there in Silicon Valley and Chad GBT and opening. I have no clue how this shit works. Most people don't. And there's a lot of fear. Vinnie, especially, we're like, I don't know what's going to Elon Musk and Nurlink and the Brains and the satellite and the Starlink. It's so much stuff going out there. And this pause I think is a good thing. Neuralink, I found one tweak from a person that represented themselves.

Starting point is 00:19:54 Hey, I've worked in Las Vegas security for a while. And you would not believe the PhDs that are being hired in Las Vegas because they don't want a Neuralink to quit person to come in Las Vegas because they don't want a neural link to quit person to come in and the game they fear is blackjack, right? They don't. Oh, damn. Right, they don't want someone with a neural. They can move the hangover,

Starting point is 00:20:14 we're not wearing our body ones. They're just counting cards like rainmen. Yeah, that's exactly right. And so there are, so the people, the people with something to lose are already trying, you know what I say, the guy that invents the accelerator, he made a lot of money for the guy that invented the brake. Yeah, exactly.

Starting point is 00:20:32 So, and so, supposedly, there are PhDs that are research level in Las Vegas that have been hired by the casinos to consider all of these things that are coming. Everything from Google Glass, because you can't remember the square Google Glass, and if you were in the casino with them, they would like walk right up to you and say, excuse me, you need to put those in your pocket. Take those off. Always been on black, Tom.

Starting point is 00:20:53 No, but that's interesting. The people with the most to lose are usually the first people to the podium. All of Vegas, all the money. To put the break something. Let's go to the next story. And by the way, the guy with a neural link, Musk to donate ex advertising revenue to hospitals

Starting point is 00:21:09 and Israel and Gaza. And this story's gonna lead into a couple different things. Rob, I'm gonna text you a couple things. Can you go up to Mark Cuban's tweet at Elon Musk about what he says with Cheech and Chong. You'll see it if you go to it. Go to that. He also gets the ads.

Starting point is 00:21:24 Yeah. So if you, I'll read the story first and then we'll go to that. So, a musk pledge to donate all advertising and subscription revenue linked to the Gaza conflict on his platform, formerly Twitter to hospitals in Israel and the Red Cross and Gaza. He stressed the importance of caring for innocent lives, regardless of their background, stating we should care about the innocent, regardless of race, creed, religion, or anything else. This announcement follows Musk's previous controversy

Starting point is 00:21:50 where he faced allegations of promoting anti-Semitism, Semitism for his response to a racist post with the comment you have said actual truth, the exchange occurred in response to a criticism of foundation to combat anti-Semitism campaign video. So that said here, then mark tweets this out. If you can zoom in a little bit, if advertisers were getting results for their X ads, or possibly if you posted data that showed the ads on this platform were effective and

Starting point is 00:22:20 produce results, you would be in an entirely different position. If your ads produce results, businesses would tell you they understand how difficult it is to completely eliminate, hate on the platform. If they don't produce result, there is no reason for a big company to fuck around and find out that their ads showed up next to a hateful post. I can't tell you how many times I got cheech or is a chunk, ads for CBD gummies, shit I would never buy. On the other platform ads, sometimes are eerily relevant to my interests.

Starting point is 00:22:49 Keep going up, that never occurs on this platform. Agree or disagree? That's the real world today, okay? So now, then I see this here, which I wanna kind of share with you is, what just came out, Rob, I'm gonna try to send this to you to show do I go to Robert's MacBook or Rob's iPhone?

Starting point is 00:23:08 Do you go by Rob or Robert? Which one is it, Rob? I found. Okay, I send it to both of them. So. Great addition, Rob. So if you pull this up, this is something that started going around yesterday

Starting point is 00:23:19 and everybody was showing it to say, hey, here's the data, here's what we're looking like. This is the kind of results we're putting in Twitter and Tom, I wanna get your thoughts on this because they're trying to say, hey, here's the data, here's what we're looking like. This is the kind of results we're putting in Twitter. And Tom, I want to get your thoughts on this because, you know, they're trying to say, look, traffic driven to a domain via Google's top 100 organic search results. Again, Google. So this isn't anybody else. Number one is X.

Starting point is 00:23:40 We're Twitter. Then it's Instagram, then it's Facebook, which means, hey, we're getting more eyeballs to the ads you're running than Instagram and Facebook. When you see this, this gives credibility to Musk to say, we are up. So now, it's very easy for us who are not in it to see the data to say, well, man, X is getting destroyed, bro, you're seeing what's going on, the racist stuff that's going on on Twitter,

Starting point is 00:24:08 and that's become a racist, you know, infested platform, you know, nobody wants to advertise there. Okay, are they not advertising because of the, the IBMs of the world and the companies we read about the Coca-Cola's taking a break, whatever, the list of companies we talked about last Tuesday, Rob, if you can pull up the company, so I say the right names and don't want to get that wrong, which company stopped advertising on X?

Starting point is 00:24:31 So are they stopping it because of what's available and freedom of speech is risky? Or are they stopping it because they're not getting returned on their money? I miss one. They go Apple, Disney, IBM, NBC, Universal Paramount, Fox Sports, Apple, Disney, I- It's basically, Apple, Disney, I- It's basically, Apple, Disney, I- Disney, I- CNN's parent company. turn on their money i miss one of the go apple disney i bm unit and bc universal paramount the fox sports especially still to more brothers discovery uh... cnn's parent company okay so uh... what do you think tom do you think there's credibility on what mark mark ube in a saint and do you think there's credibility in that data showing

Starting point is 00:24:56 that there's more eyeballs on twitter than the other two platforms well first well i assume there's credibility in the data and so the data is pretty clear that the google searches significantly you know directing to x number one number two mark cuban doesn't protect presenting data but he presents a very informed logical argument but he's not putting very informed and by the way we talked about cheach and chong cbds to podcast ago that you and i are getting these ads were saying what the hell is this why is this So either the ad buyer for Cheach and Chong, they're high and they're just putting ads everywhere, which is also logical, I'm very probable. But what I look at here is that I see something and I'm going to be like Mark Cuban. I'm going to be logical. I see something in this list. Apple, Disney, IBM, and mainstream media.

Starting point is 00:25:48 Just call it that. Mainstream media altogether there. Look at those. I don't see Levi's. I don't see Coca-Cola. I don't see a lot of consumer products. By the way, Apple, Woke, Disney, Woke, IBM, definitely woke. NBC, mainstream media, Woke, Woke, Woke, Woke, Woke.

Starting point is 00:26:03 So that's what I see. IBM, you would put the woke up. I see people. IBM. I see people that didn't like musk in the first place. Okay, go pull up their DEI score. That's all you got to do. Look at IBM, yes, she's doing that.

Starting point is 00:26:14 Is that actually how you would define woke just the DEI score? If, no, if they are, yeah, right there. If that is, yeah, let me think. No, I'm actually just asking a genuine question. Like how would you like to want to judge a company is if they're like, I mean, yeah, I'm actually asking a genuine question. Like, how would you think you want a judge company is if they're like, for example, you know, you know what is the only team

Starting point is 00:26:30 in the major league baseball that didn't do Pride night? Yeah, it was Texas Rangers. Yeah, exactly. They won the World Series. Texas Rangers? Texas Rangers won the Super Bowl. That's right. They won that Super Bowl team.

Starting point is 00:26:44 London. So the have another guy. So guess what? Excess Rangers? Excess Rangers won the Super Bowl. That's right. They won that Super Bowl table. So guess what? Everybody was saying all the other teams are all ESG, DEI, except for the Rangers. There was credibility in a company that didn't have a pride night. So IBM has it as well. So Tom, you were saying, keep going. So I'm going to be, I'm going to be a logical with this. Everybody that jumped on the bandwagon, they didn't like Elon Musk in the first place. It's almost like they're waiting for him to do something. Ah, there

Starting point is 00:27:12 you go again. But it's also a very, very sensitive time because let's talk about the topic. The topic is Israel Hamas and there is horrifying things going on. So we're not just talking about, do you believe George Floyd or do you not demand died in that encounter? It's not something like that. This is a major, and people are saying, two-sided genocide that's going on at that Elon Musk weighed in on. But these people that didn't care for Elon Musk

Starting point is 00:27:41 in the first place quickly jumped on his head. Yeah, if you recall, there was an interview, what was that six months ago? There was a BBC journalist that he sat down and did a one-on-one with Musk. Do you remember that? I don't care. No, not that one.

Starting point is 00:27:54 Not that one. That was a CNBC interview. It was a guy that basically was like, so ever since you've been coming on the platform, everyone says that your platform was way more racist. Show me, imagine that. And he's like, yeah, just show it to me. Show me, show me.

Starting point is 00:28:09 Show me what they said. But they said, who said that? You know, but I have heard. And he called, yeah, it's like, I will check that. Show me. So you're talking about basically emotions versus logic or data. So I don't know if you have a rate.

Starting point is 00:28:20 And it's not that, yeah, this one right here. The guy. I don't think I don't agree with that. Yeah, that one. Can you play that? I love this. I The guy. I don't think I agree with that one. Can you play that? I love this. I love it. You don't like or hateful.

Starting point is 00:28:28 What do you mean, do you describe a hateful thing? Yeah, I mean, you know, just content that. Potent solicit a reaction to something that may include. Give me some things. What, I love racist or slightly sexist, those kinds of things. So you think it's something as slightly sexist it should be banned?

Starting point is 00:28:45 I don't know. I'm not saying anything. I'm saying this for a long time. I'm trying to say what you mean by hateful content. I'm asking for specific examples. You can't say it. It's a little gentle. First of all, you just said that something is...

Starting point is 00:28:57 Or a ported guy in the right mind sits with one of the smartest of the smartest guy in the world. Would I be and ready, frickin' food and facts? Who the hell are you, bro? Pat, he has an iPhone. He has a note. By the way, I want you to get the end of this, though. And by the way, Pat, his note's on his eye,

Starting point is 00:29:13 I've seen this so many times. What did it watch the whole interview go? Well, you've asked me whether my face starts basically with a tripping over his own. I'd say, you know what I'm saying? There's a lot of answers. That's what I'm asking for, examples. Yeah, let's go. Can you name one example? I honestly don't need you. Honestly, that's a different thing. You know, I'm one dancer, look. That's what I'm asking for examples. Yeah, let's go.

Starting point is 00:29:25 Can you name one example? I honestly don't need it. Honestly, I don't need it. You can't name a single example. I'll tell you why, because I don't actually use that for you feed anymore, because I just don't basically like it. And actually, a lot of people are quite similar.

Starting point is 00:29:36 I don't need the kind of second. We've said you've seen more hitful content, but you can't name a single example. Not even one. I'm not sure I've used that fee for the last feed three or four weeks And I've been using it. I've been using twice a sense you've taken it over for the last six months Okay, so then you must have at some point seen that you've for you hateful content I'm asking for one example right you can't give a single one and I'm saying I then I say so that you don't know where you're talking

Starting point is 00:30:02 Yes, but you see how did it so eloquently just give me the data give it I give it the facts Well, this is what the That's a video talk. Let's see this is hot. This is exactly how the left This is great. It's like no no you're this you're this you're that but then when you check on then you say show me the proof They go no well. I heard it from yeah Yeah, good song. The proofs and the pudding when you pass some of the pudding over there And they actually was one look I I

Starting point is 00:30:24 Been happy things everybody Thank you for joining us today. You know what I've been using you heard it gave you that I've been using a little the proofs and the pudding. Would you pass some of the pudding over there? And they actually were. This one? Look, by the way, I'm happy thanks to everybody. Thanks for joining us today. You know what? You heard it gave you that. I've been using a little term privately. And I'm gonna start using this more publicly. And I call it the uninformed narrative puppets, UNPs. And I hope it catches on because that reporter

Starting point is 00:30:43 is an uninformed narrative puppet. Yeah, uninformed puppet. Trying to go with the narrative. Oh, it's so hateful. Oh, it's so hateful, but they're not ready to put anything out there. And remember, the headlines and things they put out there, they're uninformed narrative puppets. Who pays? Who pays? The French terminology.

Starting point is 00:30:58 Because media matters. And I love how we call that media matters for being... Who pays? Like, who pays? Who pays? Who pays? Have you a mule? So, who pay, like, who are you, who are you? Me, me, me, me, me, me. Have you a mule? So let's, who pay? All right, I agree.

Starting point is 00:31:09 Let's continue real quick. I wanna spend two minutes on this story, not a long time. Binance CEO, CZ, to plead guilty to federal charges steps down, where's he at? Here we go, Binance CEO has pleaded guilty to federal charge and stepped down as a part of a $4.3 billion settlement with the Department of Justice Reservant in a multi-investigation to the

Starting point is 00:31:27 world's largest cryptocurrency exchange, Z, express responsibility. What happened? No, no, just for responsibility. I have made mistakes to joint effort by the Department of Justice and Commodity Future Straight Commission and the Treasury Department found that finance allowed illicit transactions, including those supporting terrorism and illegal narcotics and failed to implement anti-money laundering controls. That right there, that right there, you know what that means, that sentence, let me read that sentence to you one more time folks.

Starting point is 00:31:57 Listen, the joint effort, Department of Justice, DOJ, the commodity futures trading commission and the Treasury Department, of justice, DOJ, the commodity futures trading commission and the Treasury Department, they are ecstatic here, found that Binance allowed illicit transactions, including those supporting terrorism, and illegal narcotics, and felt to implement anti-money laundering controls.

Starting point is 00:32:18 You know what that means? Cryptos about to be regulated. US Attorney General, that's correct. Merrick Garland emphasized that Binance prioritized as profits over the safety of American people as part of the settlement, Binance will continue to operate

Starting point is 00:32:31 with new compliance rules and an independent monitor. They do not like things to be decentralized and unfortunately the last guy, they have to take out to give the entire crypto community pro libertarian, pro independent pro, leave it to me pro decentralized, all of that.

Starting point is 00:32:50 They gave them a black eye and now they don't have anybody else to go to after this story. Go ahead. Yeah, correct. Black eye. You hit the nail on the head, Pat. This is just another black eye for the crypto industry. And if you've been saying, I know we have a sort of a bigger libertarian crypto audience.

Starting point is 00:33:07 We, I have some Bitcoin Ethereum is something I've been investing in for years, you know, percentage of my asset allocation of portfolio. But Bitcoin's been, what, they're up. 36,000, 30,000. Yeah, they're big in the last two months, big time. And it's just kind of like they can't get out of their own ways. First it was Sam Bigman Fried, now it's Binance, CZ.

Starting point is 00:33:29 By the way, Binance, CZ, way bigger than FTX. Way bigger than Coinbase. Massive, I think they're the number one crypto platform in the world by far. On the way it was exploding and the numbers they were using, yes. The White Hat and all this is a guy named Brian Armstrong who's a CEO of Coinbase and CZ actually called him when he knew his

Starting point is 00:33:51 ass was in trouble he knew it and Brian Armstrong came out was like hey I told you so there are people that are trying to push the good side of crypto you know personal security personal you know side of crypto, you know, personal security, personal, you know, an alternative to Fiat currency, all these things on the good ways. And then these idiots, combination of SPF and CZ have given the government what they want. The government wants to control everything and they have played into it. And Brian Armstrong was very, very adamant about this and I'll be adamant about this. Something that was good that could coincis with Fiat currency and other things around the world gets effed up by bad actors. And here comes the government.

Starting point is 00:34:34 I wait, I need to, I'll fix that. Listen to the three agencies, departments of governments of Pat just said, we've got law enforcement, then we've got financial regulation. We've got everybody that says, okay, don't mess with my fiat. There'll be one central bank and there'll be me. Don't need you guys running around like this

Starting point is 00:34:51 and they're going to put under control. And look, I live in Miami. We all know that Miami has sort of become the crypto hub of the United States, if not the world. And I have friends in the industry and I've seen what's going on there. And I've interviewed a lot of people, especially man on the street style.

Starting point is 00:35:04 And at the Bitcoin conference, which has been going on in Miami for the last handful of years, all the events that's going on. And I asked these guys who are huge, huge believers in Bitcoin and crypto. I said, what's your asset allocation strategy? Meaning how much do you have in cash, how much do you have in stocks, how much do you have in bonds, how much you have in crypto? Just kind of like diversification. Don't put all your eggs in one basket as they say you have no idea how many people are like dude I'm I'm all in I'm all in on crypto man 100% like how do you pay rent though? Yeah, I keep a couple bucks just to pay rent whatever, but I'm a hundred percent all in That is a very very scary situation, right because I'm a big

Starting point is 00:35:44 You know keep up just percentage and cash, keep up percentage. And, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh know you have a little percentage, whether it's 2% or 5% in the crypto space, I've done the exact same thing. But these guys out there that are put 90, 100% of their portfolio in crypto,

Starting point is 00:36:11 it's basically, yeah, they know how to lose money. That's what it is. Well, there's a lot going on and you got the mayor of Miami, Francis Suarez. Happy Thanksgiving, Francis. Paid in crypto, I think he's the only US mayor that's paid in the alternative alternative, you know, currency as something to keep an eye on. Maybe we get a bunch. Maybe we get swarrows and a bunch of people.

Starting point is 00:36:31 Yeah, I'm going to get. Well, in the future, by the way, as mayor swarrows the stud love that guy, but he gets his mayoral salary in crypto, which is like less than 50 grand, I would assume. He ain't taking his real money from his legal firm. And and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and from his legal firm and and treasury secretary Janet and yellow said in a release Tuesday that the exchange allowed elicit actors to make more than 100,000 transactions that supported activities such as terrorism and illegal narcotics that it allowed more than one and a half million virtual currency trades that violated US sanctions. So it allowed transactions associated with terrorist groups such as Hamas, Al-Qa'z,

Starting point is 00:37:06 Ambrighades, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, Al-Qaeda, and ISIS. Yellen said in the release, noting Binance never filed a single suspicious... You have to fuck you thinking. You do, you do. If I'm in that space, I'm so... U.S. Attorney General Merigarland said in a press conference Tuesday that the fine is there right there on the largest penalty is we've ever obtained using new technology to break the law does

Starting point is 00:37:31 not make you a disruptor. It makes you a criminal. Binance prioritizes profits over safety American people. Okay, so let me let me give you what I can go back up. Let me give you what I think about this year. So for example, only fans, all right? Only fans, you know what the market value of only fans is? What's the number we looked at? Yeah, there was a weird number. Only fans market cap.

Starting point is 00:37:54 Yeah, you're talking about, what's that? 18 billion or 28 billion. There's only fans market cap, 32 billion. It's a big number, whatever their market cap is. Can you look it up if it's, anyways, it's a big number. It's not a big number. Whatever their market cap is. Can you look it up if it's anyway? It's a big number. It's not a small number. What only fans market cap is. So imagine one day you build this business for fans to find others and then all of a sudden you're seeing what is turning into. And you're like, hey man, we kind of get on like, you know. Money.

Starting point is 00:38:25 Why, what's going on on only business? Legal, business, that. It's not just a whole so family. Yes, what? You make a decision, it runs off. Now it's worth $30 billion. Okay. Is it illegal?

Starting point is 00:38:37 No. But when you think about if Tom, if you ever went to a business networking event and a guy asked you a question, hey, Tom, can I get 60 minutes with you? And he said, yeah, you can find me on only fans. Do you know what? If you told me something like that, I like a business networking event. I would say, Skype, you saw pictures of your toes.

Starting point is 00:38:59 You saw pictures like, what do you do? What do you do? What do you sell? It's kind of weird. By the way, here's a thing. If you do want to ask Tom any question and have a 60 minute call with Tom, Vinnie, Adam, myself, even Rob,

Starting point is 00:39:12 you can find it on Menect, M-I-N-E-C-T, Rob, if you want to put Menect up there, so people can see it. I don't know, you've had 500 plus people ask you questions on Menect. Tom, you're up there, God knows how many different. Go download the app Menect and connect with anybody you want and ask you questions on Menec. Tom, you're up there with God knows how many different, go down with the app Menec and connect with anybody you want and ask him questions.

Starting point is 00:39:28 There's a bunch of people, you can ask questions on Menec and they get back to you. They're in the matter of fact, there was a guide there that they asked 10 questions of 10 different realtors who are professional realtors, winners, and he got 10 different answers on how to win in today's economy as a realtor. So you'll find a bunch of different people here that you can ask questions on my neck.

Starting point is 00:39:48 But here's the point. The point is, with Binance, when you see all of a sudden, money is coming in from Al Qaeda, from Hamas, for your CFO comes in and says, hey, boss, what's that? We just have $5.2 million from Palestinian Islamic jihad. What do we do? Well, why don't you just categorize it P.I.J. Yeah, but it's to jihad. Yeah, how much money was it this much?

Starting point is 00:40:15 Okay, what's the big deal? Hey, we just got some money that came in from Al Qaeda. How much was it? $2.2 million. Hey, we just got some. I mean, you have to know these are things that you have to pay in a financial industry. We will get some weird things that would come up. Very weird things that would come up that we have to take a look at. Go ahead,

Starting point is 00:40:34 Tom. I feel like you want to say something. No, no, I'm agreeing with you. The Suspicious Activity Report runs from nuisance all the way to protection. Nuisance, you sold your car for $15,000. You go to put money in the bank and you'll notice if you bring cash to the window, you have to initial that form and say, where did this come from? Because it's more than $10,000. If you do that, I did this recently.

Starting point is 00:40:57 And guy had a cashier's check. We went to the window and the lady at Chase says, well, you need to do this. What's this for? What's it for? Why I sold the car? Who's the buyer?, well, you need to do this. What's this for? What's it for? Why sold the car? Who's the buyer? Buh, buh, buh.

Starting point is 00:41:07 And that is a form of a suspicious activity report. One level I found that kind of intrusive, gosh, all I did was sell cars, 15 grand, it's not 100 grand. It's, and on the other side, they're trying to protect people. And here you got Binance out there facilitating transactions with, you know,

Starting point is 00:41:22 hi, listen, I sent $ and a half million dollars of turkey I didn't get my stinger missiles And no, no, you need to call FedEx. They're the ones delivering those you know It's Binance didn't do what it's supposed to because we as Americans can see it and sometimes it's you know annoying Not the example I just gave selling a car, but at the other end of it This is supposed to protect us when it's like, where is this money coming from? What was bought with this? What's going on?

Starting point is 00:41:49 Giant transactions for artwork and other things and jewelry are quickly explainable. Big giant chunks of money for other things, like for buying a property are quickly explainable. When you have millions of dollars going from Cauté Hénia to Mexico City and bouncing through a Bahamian bank, yeah, maybe we should look into that. That's probably a couple of tons of powdered sugar

Starting point is 00:42:17 that's moving around. And Binance was supposed to be there. These are suspicious activities that the reporting and the investigation of them is supposed to give leads to the DEA and to defences around the world to protect citizens. And one more thing, you know, what Vinnie and I always joke when they say like nothing to see here, nothing, there's always something to see there. And essentially what this is because it comes down to two things fraud and crime and is basically his inability to even look the other way

Starting point is 00:42:46 When you're talking about money laundering and failing prevent money laundering. I love the example that Pat gave about only fans Yeah, it's like all right nothing to see here. It's all gunned But there's a big difference between seeing some titties and seeing some terrorists and terrorist activities big difference So at what point when you're dealing with- Maybe with the most powerful- I'll quote you ever- Thank you, he's a terrorist. Tooties terrorists, boys and go. But the difference is when you're talking about

Starting point is 00:43:11 Islamic jihad and al-Qaeda and ISIS and Hamas, they are in that category, ladies and gentlemen. And just turning a blind eye to this, at what point do your morals become more important than money? And clearly he didn't give a sh- Nope. A lot of them don't.

Starting point is 00:43:25 All right, next. Israel and Hamas reach hostage release. Deal in exchange for four-day pause in fighting. Israel and Hamas have reached a deal in which around 50 hostages being held by Hamas will be released to Israel according to multiple reports. While fighting will pause for four days, making a first major agreement between the two sides

Starting point is 00:43:44 in Hamas, October 7th attack, the four-day pause in fighting will pause for four days, making a first major agreement between the two sides since Hamas, October 7th attack. The four day pause in fighting will be the first pause longer than four hours that Israel has agreed to since the fighting escalated. In early October, Israel will let 300 a trucks in a day cross from Egypt into Gaza as part of the deal according to Axios. According to Katari officials, Israel, has also agreed to release some 150 jail Palestinians, all women and children, Adam.

Starting point is 00:44:11 Yeah, well, you know, the famous phrase, we do not negotiate with terrorists. Well, that is exactly what Israel is forced to do at this point, where they're negotiating with terrorists. And today, Thanksgiving, we're all sitting here enjoying life and the amazingness that is America. On the other side of the world, they are basically trying to get their hostages back.

Starting point is 00:44:33 And that's essentially been the main reason why they have not been even willing to have a ceasefire. But it's good to see for humanity's sake and for innocent civilian's sake that a ceasefire is pending. And today is supposed to be the day, but now they're essentially supposed to be pushing it back to Friday. And what's holding up the deal? Well, Hamas has not lived up to their end of the bargain by providing any of the details

Starting point is 00:44:57 that's supposed to come with these list of how hostage is i.e. names, genders, details, logistics, nothing. And, you know, luckily, the United States and Israel alongside with Egypt and Qatar, because Qatar is very much involved in this. A lot of Hamas' leadership is based out of Qatar. So everyone's stepping up and basically saying, let's get to the ceasefire at some point. And, you know, if someone, I try to equate this into just like humanistic terms, if someone held your kids hostage,

Starting point is 00:45:30 and they're like, hey, just chill out, man. Just have a little cease fire, you're like, yeah, I want my kids back. I want my children back here. And you're telling me to have a cease fire, give me my children back. And these are the children of Israel. This is the family of Israel.

Starting point is 00:45:46 And it's great to see much like in any time there's a situation that there's women and children and old people are going to come first. And essentially, essentially, the details of the deal is there's going to be 50 of the over 200 hostages, women and children initially, that are going gonna basically be exchanged for 150 Palestinian prisoners

Starting point is 00:46:10 that are apparently also women and children. I don't know why, what those details are. Kind of weird, yeah. But so there's this exchange, it's sort of a three to one exchange. Israel has been notorious, notorious. If you look, Rob, you can Google this. They will exchange one Israeli citizen for hundreds if not thousands of terrorists or people

Starting point is 00:46:29 that are putting jail. Like that's how much Israel cares about their citizens. They will literally exchange one citizen for a thousand terrorists essentially, whoever's in jail. So you can look into that. But ultimately, here's what has to happen. Because hopefully this takes place. There's, I would say there's a high likelihood

Starting point is 00:46:49 that this doesn't take place. You're negotiating with terrorists. So we'll see what happens here. But if there is some sort of ceasefire and exchanging of prisoners and hostages and everything that's going on, though, that's great. And then what they, what I think terms of a deal is that for every day that there's a ceasefire, they will release 10 more hostages.

Starting point is 00:47:13 So we would all love to see a cessation in war and activity and everything that's going on with that. And the meantime, Israel has been attacking the operational headquarters allegedly that is in this hospital area. They've been basically going after tunnels. They've been going after weapons, manufacturing sites. And I think it's come to the world's attention that Hamas has got to go.

Starting point is 00:47:35 What needs to happen is that the UN needs to step up. The Red Cross has already stepped up. They're going to need to basically set up some sort of temporary political solution, a UN run government to run Gaza. And we would all love to see the ending of war and the ending of this. The only way you bring a terrorist to the table is you kind of go Kaiser Soci on them, right? You're willing to go one step further than they are. And I've seen the, we've seen the videos and one of the videos most striking to me

Starting point is 00:48:09 was seeing how the Israelis planted, you know, a high intensity explosive charge and one end of a tunnel and they set it off and you saw a back blast, but then in the distance on a like a straight line then off to the left, you saw the blast, effectively coming to like manhole covers that was air vents.

Starting point is 00:48:29 And so I'm saying to myself, man, I sure hope Israel knew who that tunnel went and was sure that there were no hostages and little rooms or caves down under there because the concussive force there, basically it kills people rather quickly, right? The concussive force of an explosion in a contained area breaks your ear drums, creates intercranial bleeding and you're dead.

Starting point is 00:48:52 And so I just sure hope that Israel knew that there were no hostages along that line and where that tunnel was going. Number one, but number two, you look at that immediately took out any living thing that was on down that half mile tunnel. And you say to yourself, okay guys, if you're hiding in that tunnel, you're no longer hiding there, because there you guys are all dead.

Starting point is 00:49:14 And it appears that Israel's had some, despite the bad view, and I hate what I'm seeing here, because I believe in the notion that when you kill a man with a child and you leave the child, the childness three friends are, when they turn 18, 16, they're becoming bad guys. You're making bad guys out of these children have lost their parents.

Starting point is 00:49:36 But I believe Israel's had some effectiveness with what they're doing and that's brought Hamas to the table to negotiate this. Well, again, America doesn't negotiate with terrorists. I don't know how Israel or anybody else does, but let's say we get all these hostages back then, then what? Is that end game? Then what? Hamas is still, apparently, out of the, what, 11,000 that have been killed, the majority

Starting point is 00:50:03 or women and children, you guys know how many Hamas terrorists have been killed in this, in this. They have not had concrete numbers. It's hard to do that because of the odds, but I don't know, I'm not gonna guess. I'm not gonna guess. But people have guess, but it's a guess. But it's a guess.

Starting point is 00:50:16 But a hundred or 200, and I'm being, give me your source for that. I've heard that it's not a lot. What's, it's not a lot. All right, can you tell me how many? I don't know, that's why I'm not guessing. I hold on, give me a guess. Can you guess? I's not a lot. It's not a lot. Can you tell me how many? I don't know. That's why I'm not guessing. I hold on.

Starting point is 00:50:27 Give me a guess. Can you guess? I'm not going to guess. Well, I, I from what I've heard. Give me your best guess. I would say it's from a guy who's 400. I think under 500, not of 10,000. Let's just say, my point is at what point is he going to be like, okay, so let's say they

Starting point is 00:50:39 do this a four days cease fire. And then they go right back to it. What's the end game is, is getting all the hostages back, right? I mean, that's what you want. It's got all the hostages back, but like Tom just said, you killed these innocent people that are dying. You're creating people that are really, really gonna hate Israel and they're really, really, really gonna hate us.

Starting point is 00:51:01 And then here's the point. Here's the point that I'm going to. You guys saw that internal memo that was released that Israel said, hey, listen, we didn't want it to come out with the media and everybody got it right. Did you see about this? And it was their plan, the value-taming,

Starting point is 00:51:14 Connor, a walk-cut reported on it. It was the internal memo saying that all of the West and everybody is gonna have to take all these refugees because Israel doesn't wanna take them. Because mind you, all these people are going where right now. Where are all? And the refugee camps. Okay, where?

Starting point is 00:51:32 Israel's not, the Egyptian border's not open. The rough are crossing, that's where they, yes. But ask yourself, why won't Egypt take these people in? I'm saying, no, I won't Jordan take these people in. Why won't the rest of the world take these people in? Yeah, that's'm asking you why. Because nobody wants people that are pissed off

Starting point is 00:51:48 because they're getting bombed, Adam. Would you want to take them out? That's a big plug. Why didn't they take them in proprietor to this? What I'm saying is the attitude of, well, we told everybody to leave, where are they going? They're just going in a camp and sitting around, where are they gonna go?

Starting point is 00:52:02 This is a sort of highlight. It's the bigger problem that's going on here. And I they gonna go? I'm just curious. This sort of highlights the bigger problem that's going on here. And I equated to, I'm gonna make a sort of a weird analogy what's going on in America when black on black crime. Like nobody talks about black on black crime. Nobody talks about what's going on in Chicago. Nobody talks about what's going on in DC.

Starting point is 00:52:19 Where are the riots for that? Where is the BLM movement? When black people get killed by other black people? But when one cop randomly kills a black person which is very, very seldom, all of a sudden there's riots and there's protests. What's the analogy? We're not talking about the Arabs

Starting point is 00:52:36 that are killing other Arabs in every other part of the world, in Syria, in Lebanon, in North Africa. Certainly what's going on in Iran is a fucking travesty, but all of a sudden, when Israel tries to defend themselves and they're right to a sovereign peaceful nation, they're the bad guys. Go ahead and march when Al-Qaeda in North Africa

Starting point is 00:52:59 starts terrorizing other North Africans and they start killing other Muslims and Arabs. Where are the marches for that? Where are the marches? You only care about when the Jews do. It's essentially the same thing that goes on here in America. You don't know, BLM isn't marching when hundreds, if not thousands of Black people are killed by fellow Black people.

Starting point is 00:53:18 Where are the marches? Say nothing. But let one cop do something ridiculous. The marches and suits. Exactly what's going on here. And if you wanna talk about stats, do you see this USA Today article? I'll read it to you,

Starting point is 00:53:29 because they actually surveyed the people of Gaza. Okay, what time, what do you say? No, I'm saying yes, yes, yes, read that. Okay, guys, thanks. I don't need your encouragement. So they basically said that. Paul support, dude, thanks brother. Go ahead, Adam.

Starting point is 00:53:44 Basically, they're saying, brother. Go ahead, Adam. Basically, they're saying that Hamas has basically, it's basically a mini-eron, and you're familiar with Iran, of course. Okay. How do you think the people of Iran feel about their government? Well, some of them love it. Not the majority of people do not love their government in Iran. Well, you said some people do

Starting point is 00:54:04 with the majority of people. I mean, I don't. Well, you said some people do with majority of people. I don't know. What are the stats? Have you seen that poll? I'm just your opinion. Like, where's the stats? Where's your poll? About to give it to you.

Starting point is 00:54:12 I don't know. Because some people love their fucking country. Yeah. What would you say? Do you say the people of Iran love their government, Pat? Uh, government, no. They do not. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:54:23 Do you need a stat to know that? No, we actually gave it. We report the yet today in the way it opened up according to a netherlands uh... study that was done sixty eight percent of iranians in iran want the government to be changed of course all right well turns out it's exact same thing that's going on in Gaza okay so if you look into this thing that says, Hamas, notorious for its violent tactics, such as executions and enforced,

Starting point is 00:54:48 and enforced disappearances, instills a pervasive atmosphere among who Palestinians in Gaza, this is what happens when a terrorist organization or a mafia-like organization, like the Mullahs in Iran, or running your government. And what happens is they kill their political rivals, they're thrown off rooftops, they tortured their own people.

Starting point is 00:55:07 This is not a democracy. This is a full on terrorist organization that is running a country. And the people who suffers the most innocent civilians in Gaza, the 50% of which were born prior to Hamas coming into power in 2006. Innocent kids, innocent victims can't even go out there

Starting point is 00:55:27 and speak, so here's some numbers for you. Surface conducted by the Arab barometer before the October 7th attack provide revealing statistics, 68% here your numbers, 68% of gossens believe they had no safe way to participate in peaceful protests against Hamas while 73% favored a peace deal with Israel. It's according to USA Today. These figures underscore the complex sentiments of Gaza population

Starting point is 00:55:52 where support for Hamas is far from unanimous. So the people that are suffering the most are the innocent people of Gaza and the Palestinians. That's the majority of them. The majority of them. Exactly. We're suffering at the hands of the Palestinians. That's the majority of them. The majority of them. Exactly. We're suffering at the hands of Hamas. So by the way, if you look at Hamas, when they were elected in 2006, who was running basically Palestine,

Starting point is 00:56:15 the Palestinians, but that was Mahmoud Abbas. By the way, he's 88 years old. He's kept up in the West Bank. He has not been to Gaza since 2006. Why? Because they basically had a civil war and they will freaking kill him, Hamas. They're political rivals, okay? So in America here, we have, you know, we'll lock her up, you belong in jail and all that.

Starting point is 00:56:37 No, they'll literally kill you in Gaza. That's what Hamas will do. So it's a sad situation that's going on there. And last point is this, they've actually come out with dozens of reports they've interviewed Arab Muslims who live in Israel and they asked them point blank. Why don't you leave Israel? Why do you stay here? They go I I love Israel I have economic security I have financial freedom I'm safe. I feel great. Why don't you move to Gaza? Why don't you go to Lebanon? And they're essentially like,

Starting point is 00:57:05 hell, no, I'm good here. So all the people really want in Gaza at the end of the day, at the end of the day, what do people really want? Financial freedom, they want to work, they want to earn, they want to be with their family, but they're held hostage by Hamas. And Israel lives next door to a terrorist organization to the west of them is Hamas,

Starting point is 00:57:24 so the north of them is Hezbollah, to the right of them is Hamas. So the north of them is Hezbollah. To the right of them is Al-Qaeda. What the hell are they supposed to do? Does anybody want innocent victims to die hell? No. What are you supposed to do when you have terror organizations surrounding you? Well, it's kind of school.

Starting point is 00:57:38 You said the people, what do the people and gods that want? You mean wanted, because there is no, it's flat. Yeah, everybody's been 50% of the people have been displaced. Everybody, but what did Israel want? No, no, no, what October 6th they had no issue. No, no, no, not saying no issues. And Adam, there was no one. And I want this is a point that I have to make Pat Pat and I'll move on. Two things can exist at the same time. What Hamas did, I can, everybody can agree, horrible, disgusting.

Starting point is 00:58:05 You can understand and see that, but then on the flip side, say like the response is getting a little bit out of hand. You could still, those can exist. You're not a Hamas supporter. I want you to play this here, because again, this is a conversation that's been going on for. How many weeks now, right? Several weeks and we've heard all the debates. We've heard all the different debates on's been going on for how many weeks now right several weeks and we've heard all the debates we've heard all the different debates on what's going on

Starting point is 00:58:29 rap can you play the clip on the the what is it security council the national security council advisor to Obama smiles when he's talking to this man in this video if you guys saw the face of this man going around and maybe you watched a video, here's who he was. This was the former national security counsel advisor. His name is Astur, Seldoet. He was charged yesterday with a hate crime for spewing Islamophobic rants

Starting point is 00:58:59 at a carte vendor in New York City. The vendor's name was Muhammad Hussein, who's by the way, of Egyptian descent, he's American citizen, he was working when Al-Seldoit's, who's Jewish, approached him and started verbally attacking him. Muhammad said the incident was unprovoked and he said that he's gonna sue Stuart

Starting point is 00:59:17 for hate speech and harassment. And I'm not gonna give it away because this is two minutes long. Do you want to show the whole thing or just at the end when he says, and I quote, if we killed 4,000 Palestinian kids, let them watch us show the play. Don't play little man will fast.

Starting point is 00:59:31 So it's going to be, yeah, okay, go ahead. To my friends in immigration, it's calling it to the Egyptian, the Mughabarat wants you picture. Okay, yeah, let go. Yeah, look at that evil face. You know the Mughabarat? The Mughabarat?

Starting point is 00:59:54 They'll take them out once by once. Jesus. Look at that face. Get a lot of men, yeah. Go, go, go. Why should I go? Why should I go? Tell me why I should go.

Starting point is 01:00:03 I'm standing here. I'm an American. It's a free country. It's not like Egypt. Cheese. Eat this fast, four and a half way. Laura, you can't look right there. What? Home of Ham. Oh Hamid, you're profit. You know who he is. My profit? Yeah.

Starting point is 01:00:20 He was a rapist. He raped Aisha. Does it say that in the heartith or not? You know that? I just speak English. What? You don't speak English? What do you speak? That face, dude. What do you speak?

Starting point is 01:00:36 You speak Arabic and language of the Quran. The Holy Quran. That some people use as a toilet. Geez What do you think of that people who use this? Problem here. And here it comes. Here it comes. Is it bothering you?

Starting point is 01:00:54 What's the dessert at the end? Does it bother you? Tell me the truth. And it's speaking. You don't speak English? It's too bad. That's why you're selling food in a food card Is you ready your ignorant But you should learn English and it'll help you of course. Yeah, I

Starting point is 01:01:12 support you back to Egypt and the Muhabbarat wants to interview you for being We are living on my son you I sent you one rob and slack which at the end of a pack the one that I say what he said Okay, so I'm gonna say what he says a rock. I slack you the one at the slack, which at the end of a pack, the one that I say what he said. Okay, so I'm going to say what he says a rob because I slapped you the one at the end, at the one minute, 40 mark, he says, and I mean, you have to hear him say it. I sent it. That's his it right here, Pat. I rather have you guys hear it from him.

Starting point is 01:01:38 And this is just pure hate. So far, so far, there's no crime here. So far. What do you mean? Well, he got arrested for a hate crime. No, he get, there's no crime until this end. Yeah, correct watch that yeah, go to the heat showing by the way puts an Israeli flag Up to the video. Yeah, no Support that go go to a little bit towards the end Rob. It's like right right towards the end

Starting point is 01:01:58 I'm not some you go. I'm just working you watch watch here. We go terrible person You get shit. They're not me. What go my kids? They're terrible person. You get shit, they're not me. What? My kids, what about my kids? You get shit, they're not me. Go. I didn't kill children. Okay, I see you.

Starting point is 01:02:11 No one, if we killed 4,000 Palestinian kids, you know what, it wasn't enough. It wasn't enough. It wasn't enough. It wasn't enough. That's Obama's national security council advisor. So there's, dude, that's just evil hatred in your heart, just his face, just his vibe.

Starting point is 01:02:25 It's like, that's disgusting. Well, and he got arrested yesterday. I fully agree with you. The guys are total scum. Scum? And it's indefensible. By the way, Rob, can we play the video of all the Arabs basically calling for the death of all Jews?

Starting point is 01:02:37 Do you have any of those videos? Because there's billions of them. Here's the point. These anomalies out here, just interviewing one person, they're not representative of an entire faith or entire ideology. Nobody say so is that guy a scumbag? Yes, but does he represent all Jews or is all Israelis? Hell no, not like Hamas doesn't represent all Arabs. Yeah, nobody said The point is this is Obama's boy. This is Obama's boy, which is hilarious

Starting point is 01:03:02 Dude, I don't care if he's Obama's boy, Trump's boy, because believe me, Trump has people that are just Adam. That's why. That's the story, though. The story is that he was working in our government in a trusted position of influence, control, and power for a US president, and then he's on the street like this.

Starting point is 01:03:17 I don't think any of you was trying to make a sweeping generalization about Jewish people, Arabic people. This is a guy that was in our government. That's the story and he's choosing to behave like this. On that, he knows he's getting recorded. And he was in a liberal, liberal, globalist regime, the Obama administration. Yeah, well, we have to say for you.

Starting point is 01:03:37 I fully agree. I don't know who this guy is. I'm not defending him. What we told you, he is. We just told you, but the point is, what's the point? We're just saying this one guy out. Adam, it's a story in the news. I don't know if you know this, the PPD podcast, we do news. This is Barack Obama's national security advisor. He's in the street in front of a camera

Starting point is 01:03:53 saying we should have killed more, I understand the point he's making. But it's not like we're singin' out one. The point he's making is there's extreme people like this as well on the other side that are doing some ridiculous thing. My biggest challenge is that this is increasing the temperature and people like him are increasing it even more

Starting point is 01:04:12 by the things that they're saying, not being able to control their emotions. And for somebody that lives in America, you have to realize the people that live in Poland, their number one priority is what? Poland. People live in Australia, their number one priority is what? Poland. People living Australia, their number one priority is what? Australia.

Starting point is 01:04:28 People who live in the US, guess what's their number one priority? Should be, US if you got a family. That should be your number one priority. Now, I mean, Ronnie and his Syrian and Armenian, whenever something happens over there, that tucks up my heart and I'm part of it. So I understand as a person that's Jewish or somebody that's Palestinian a person that's Jewish

Starting point is 01:04:45 or somebody that's Palestinian or somebody that's Muslim or somebody that whatever maybe, they're gonna have their emotions being involved because it's heritage, it's pride in your background who you are. But at the same time, the fact that these temperatures are not decreasing at the levels that we need, concerns me in today were yesterday a guy driving a Bentley is flying into a Canadian border blowing up and CNN and Fox and everybody says there was explosive stuff in the vehicle

Starting point is 01:05:17 and yeah, is that the one? Watch this video with this car just flying. Look at it. Look at the background. I think it was like 110 miles an hour back. Press play rock. I didn't find who the occupants of the building. How is he doing? Any potential. Flying car. They have in terms of in groups. They may be long-term. I'll tell you. I'll hear Rob. We're now listening to what she's got. It's just one of Washington. Yeah. What is he doing?

Starting point is 01:05:39 Dude, in Bully, he's going from Canada to here. That's how bad it is in Canada. They're driving a hundred and 10 miles an hour to get the freak out of here. Justin Trudeau, does you be a video? Get the hell out of Canada. That's a true thing you said all day. Let's say new meaning to it. I don't need any facts for that.

Starting point is 01:05:56 Yeah, we don't need a fact check for money. Small, small and successful division of air Canada here. Okay, let's go to the next one. Let's go to the next story. 40% of Americans are afraid to walk alone at night. Most in decades, this is a Miami-Herald story. Let's see what this is.

Starting point is 01:06:11 The Harold. So, all right. So concerns about certain crimes in the US are at the highest levels in decades, despite a decrease in violent crime nationwide. A Gallupal found that 20% Americans worry about being murdered, a near high, and 72% worry about falling victim to identity theft.

Starting point is 01:06:30 Additionally, 50% worry about their cars being stolen or broken into. 37% fear being mugged, and 32% are concerned about being attacked while driving. The heightened fear has led to a significant impact on daily life with 40% Americans being afraid to walk alone at night within a mile of their home. The highest number in three decades, crying concerns, also prevent 34% from driving in certain areas, 28% from attending events, and 28% from speaking to strangers. Does any of this apply to you? Are you concerned?

Starting point is 01:07:04 I mean, Pat, you know me. I'm I love living in Florida because I'm armed all the time But what what do you expect Pat when you have not only the open border? You can steal up to whatever what thousand dollars and underneath the defund the police attitude has made cops not give a shit because they don't want it Why would you want to help if you were a cop? Everybody's watching your boys trying to record you and see if you F up. I think people should be concerned and you should be armed and you should take care of yourself

Starting point is 01:07:32 because at the end of the day, Pat, when shit is a fan, who's gonna help you? You're gonna stop and like, hold on one second. Let me call 911 to a cop that can give two shits now because the country's been shitting on them for the past five years. No, it's you have to protect yourself. And I don't like good, good guys.

Starting point is 01:07:47 Be, be worried and be scared with an open border with the sentiment that we've had towards cops, with, with states saying, you know, it's still as much as you want, just, just, just, long as it's, they're incentivizing people to steal and shit. Yes, I think everybody should be worried and you should be armed and you should take care of yourself. Because nobody's going to help you. Yeah, I'm increasingly concerned about personal security, but I don't let it affect, you know, that I'm too scared to go outside or not do things in life. You know, I still go to football games, I still go out and shop, I still do things.

Starting point is 01:08:16 But I'm hyper aware, and with a daughter who's about to go off to college in, you know, nine months from now, she's going to be going off to college. We talk about personal protection. We talk about the things you do when you get out of a car in a parking lot, looking around. And it's just, there's more training and more awareness and more just being, because if you do these things,

Starting point is 01:08:39 and I set her up with a license so she can get pepper spray and all that kind of stuff, if you do all that, then you can live more comfortably and not just be scared looking over your shoulder. I would hate to live a life where I was just scared looking over my shoulder every day. I want to feel perfectly comfortable and unconcerned going to the ATM, going to the store, going to the beach, going to a football game. But, you know what, I've got precautions. I've, you know, you can get a carry permit. You can get your children set up at the right age,

Starting point is 01:09:12 you know, to be trained in use of pepper spray and things. And so you have plan B. Why do you have a fire extinguisher in a kitchen? Just in case, but you don't worry about every day. I hope there's not a fire, I hope there's not a fire, hope there's not a fire, but you have what you need when you need it. That's how I want to live life, is live life not, you know, stupid and unassuming and walk into something

Starting point is 01:09:34 and I should have been looking around and paying attention, but I want to live life comfortably with freedom and have a degree of just peace about myself when I go out. But I will have fire extinguishers. Well, I'll tell you what, these stats, they're alarming and they're just quite frankly set. So the 28% of Americans are worried about being murdered, okay, 72% fall victim, but identity theft,

Starting point is 01:10:02 50% worry about their cars, 37% being mugged, 32% being attacked while driving, it's absurd. So this just sort of gives credence to the American first ideology. It's like we're trying to be a policeman of the world. And in some instances we should, because if America takes a step back, who then leads the world? China, Russia, Iran, the axis of evil, hell no.

Starting point is 01:10:25 But at the same time, we do need take care of America. We see these open border policy basically ruining America, something that wasn't an issue until Trump made an issue, but it was obviously the news perpetuated the racist wall and all that. Now we're looking back at it and Biden's like, you know what? Have we built that wall, buddy? You know, so we see what's going on here. So the, the, the, the, the rock within American, American society, the decline American values is real and it's just sad to see.

Starting point is 01:10:52 And guess what, gun, that's the, because of these stats, that's why gun sales are at an all time high. People aren't being super-away. That's what they're, every year they're getting higher and higher. And, and, and, and, you. When you are on pat legally armed and protected, I don't feel as scared because I know that I'm going to take care of myself. If shit does hit the fence. That's why I wrote with Vini as my personal body. Do you know, do you know what percentage of Iranians own a gun in Iran? In Iran. Seven point three percent. Really? How do they even get it? You know what percentage of Americans own a gun? 120%. Let's go, baby. Did you know this that or no?

Starting point is 01:11:25 100% or no. What percentage of a gun ownership worldwide? Legal, legal, legal. Because in the early days, some people have just got more guns divided by population. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's percentage. Do they have it broken down by how many people

Starting point is 01:11:41 actually own a gun? Like, I think it's like probably 25% of Americans. I don't know what I'm saying. Go right there, zoom in right there. Look, you're saying like a gun ownership. US is 120%. Serbio 39, Uruguay 35, Canada 35, Finland 32. Look at number two.

Starting point is 01:11:57 Yeah. Falkland Island. Hey, hey, hey, hey, they still don't trust the British. They're lies. In other words, what this tells me is me is Rob can you do me a favor eight do you know what the former national security council? You mean the guy at the three of the party? Oh the guy that said hi to you. Hi to kids

Starting point is 01:12:20 Play this clip. It's by far the best one if I just texted it to you And then go to minute five. I mean, this thing was so popular that it became a rap song. You don't want to have you seen this? You're not? Yes. Have you seen it in a clip? Antoine Dotson turns into a rap song.

Starting point is 01:12:35 Oh yeah, could they bring anybody up in here? Yeah. Yeah. Just go to minute five. There's certain. 10 years ago, this was, you couldn't escape this. This is a one. It's the equivalent of the big black guy with the black bar

Starting point is 01:12:47 His certain hits are good on minute five. Oh, and the picture of the leprechaun. Yeah, right. It was that part of it watch this Pray obviously we have a rapist in Lincoln Park He's clamming in your windows. He's snatching your people up trying to rape him So y'all need to hide your kids, hide your wife, and hide your hood because they rape and a' everybody out here. You're a fool, you're a fool. I'm having a bad guy loose and win out.

Starting point is 01:13:11 Oh, if this is the scat, by the way, I can't, see if there's a picture of the guy. By the way, was that part of the, by the way, you know, keep passing play without the ballad. And your husband's, because they're rapein' everybody. Right, right, right, get it. Oh, God.

Starting point is 01:13:24 Oh, God. Don't turn on the audio. Listen to him. He goes, you let, I think they had a sketch on the guy. You're a big oppressor. No, you are so dumb. You are really dumb. A crime scene investigator photographed and dusted for prints on the lid of the garbage can and the window pane and ledge.

Starting point is 01:13:42 Dotson says he's never seen the perp before that sends this warning to whoever is responsible. You don't have to come and confess that you did. We're looking for you. We're going to find you. I'm letting you know that so

Starting point is 01:13:54 you can run and tell that. Oh boy. Oh boy. Yeah. Antoine Johnson's president. Oh, well, Kim, I can he had no idea while he was doing that. He was going to go by.

Starting point is 01:14:04 Well, we were raping everybody up. By the way, that was over 10 years ago. I love him. I love him. I love him. I love him. I love him. I love him. I love him. I love him. I love him. I love him. I love him. I love him.

Starting point is 01:14:12 I love him. I love him. I love him. I love him. I love him. I love him. I love him. I love him. I love him.

Starting point is 01:14:20 I love him. I love him. I love him. I love him. I love him. I love him. I love him. much we're going to next year. You mean the amount of fear they want to put into the American voter is just out of control. Do you know what you clip I'm talking about? Yeah, morning Joe. Right there.

Starting point is 01:14:33 That one right there. Watch this. The play this clip. I hate these. I hate these too. Look at this. You got to look like idiots because he will do. He will get away with, he will imprison, he will execute, whoever

Starting point is 01:14:50 he's allowed to imprison, execute, drive from the country. Just look at his past. Execute. You should be held accountable for using words like that. Never. What do you mean they're left this let's flip it around Let's flip it around that is Brett bear goes on a rant and says Obama he will do He will in prison. He will retaliate Obama will execute anyone what happens to Brett buyer does He's fired next exactly. Yeah, bear not buyer by our sorry. Whatever the hell is name is just unbelievable.

Starting point is 01:15:26 The point is, you know, it represents a position very clearly. So it's a beard man. He's a bad man. He's a bad man. He's a bad man. He's a bad bum. He's a bad bum. The one that breaks the crater will fall and it has fallen here.

Starting point is 01:15:42 But not my grill. But not my boy. he didn't sell you up the river. You have to think about it, they'll pat like I hope everybody's pocket. I hope everybody's paying attention because this is the bigger picture because history is starting to repeat itself. Mainstream media is already starting with this bullshit. He Hitler's coming back in Orange Man. Mainstream media, This is the sad part because I know these guys are panicking Mainstream media is reporting already CNN everybody Trump is beating Biden the polls, right pat? Let's pay attention Pay attention. What's happening?

Starting point is 01:16:12 Javier Malay the Argentinian Trump just became president, right? Malay yesterday the Dutch Donald Trump geared will just send one of the Netherlands Celebrities who suffer from Trump during his syndrome are now turning and they're bashing Biden openly, okay? And then one week at Badu, history time, it's coming full circle. The dictator Xi Jinping visits America and now all of a sudden there's a COVID-like flu that's tearing through China, okay?

Starting point is 01:16:40 Notice how it's all starting to come around. It's election year, Trump is number one. The left is turning on him, that the poll numbers they're reporting. Celebrities, now notice, look, they're trying to, for more, there's a rise of illness in pneumonia clusters. I saw, I sent Rob a video, Rob, I sent you a video.

Starting point is 01:16:55 It looks exactly like when they were trying to start telling us Pat about COVID, and they had those videos, add those propaganda videos where Chinese people with masks were dying in the street, but they were catching themselves when they fell down. Do you have that video that I sent you up? Yeah, this is what's happening in China right now.

Starting point is 01:17:11 And it's in Chinese, so maybe Aaron could come in here and translate. Look at the overflow of, does everybody's, all these people are, like it's starting again. And by the way, I wouldn't be surprised she comes to visit. He might have brought this here with us

Starting point is 01:17:24 and given it to Biden. He's like, hey, listen, you take this. And if you wanna win the way, I wouldn't be surprised she comes to visit. He might have brought this here with us and given it to Biden. He's like, hey, listen, you take this and if you want to win the election, you want to stay in the basement, release this. I was 20. This is ridiculous, Pat. People don't see it. You don't see what's happening. You think that's, you're going to the point where you think that's what's taking place?

Starting point is 01:17:38 I'm going to, well, you think they're going to be able to get away with the playbook they use in 2020. No, Americans are Pat, the average American, you mean those idiots that are lining up? So let me ask you a question. Let me ask you a question. So how did Millay win in Argentina? How did year,

Starting point is 01:17:55 wilderness win? How did these guys win? I mean, go to year wilderness who just won. And everybody says the anti-Islam, anti-Eupopulist, who could be the next Dutch PM, and they're calling them the next Trump. So anybody that is a conservative is a far right candidate who their melee is a libertarian, and this guy is also going around doing what he's doing. And you know, in football and in basketball, you put a play very rarely will a team do the

Starting point is 01:18:29 same play back to back because the defense is now able to read the play they're going to do. Very rarely you're going to do that. If they tried to do the same play as they did in 2020, which that was very effective, you have to come up with a more creative play than that. That was very effective. You have to come up with a more creative play than that. And you don't have someone to hate today. They're trying to get the world to hate Trump because that was the playbook for 2020. They're having a hard time doing that because they're saying, well, listen, man, as much

Starting point is 01:18:57 as we want to hate Trump, even what's the actor that the other day said, I can't believe you might want to be voted for. They want to hate him so bad. They want to hate him so bad. They want to hate him so bad. But they still got a vote for the guy. Yeah. They want to hate him so bad, but they're looking at the conditions.

Starting point is 01:19:12 They're looking at Israel. They're looking at Palestine. They're looking at, you know, the way we left Afghanistan, they're looking at Ukraine. They're looking at Russia. They're looking at what's going on here. And they're saying, you know what?

Starting point is 01:19:21 If I have to choose between biting in him, so they don't have a same argument to put that kind of a fear into them. They just don't have that. And I think that's gonna be problematic for them. So you can- And the fear that is in them is reality. Reality is landed on them, like a ton of bricks,

Starting point is 01:19:36 with fear, causing them to make logical decisions out of that fear, and that is exactly, we showed the clip on the podcast three home teams ago, where Chammoth came out and did an analysis of his own thinking, and I won't say fears, but his apprehensions and observations of what was really happening in the world through the lens of history as time passed,

Starting point is 01:20:00 led him to go back and say, not that I was wrong, but my views have changed. And this is what I'm worried about today. So I'm concerned about my today. And this is how I vote today. But Vinnie, I know what you're saying. I understand, you're saying here they go again, here they go again.

Starting point is 01:20:16 But Americans, you play the hero, I go again on Americans. They are not close in schools here. Not close in America. I don't know. You guys are giving the average, by the way, Biden and Trump, it's 48, 49%, that 48% that still loves Biden. Those are the people lining up to get their fifth booster, they're driving in their cars

Starting point is 01:20:35 of the mass. You guys are giving the average American pat. I think way too much credit. Obviously, it's not our views because they're all smart. We look at the average American doesn't run it though. The average American doesn't run the election. So you mean it's, okay, so Pat, ready for this? The left, there can't be stupid. The Trump indictment shit is backfiring 100%.

Starting point is 01:20:52 Okay, they're losing control. They're seeing what's happening in the world. If you had to guess, Pat, what trick do they have up their sleep? They have to be doing something. There's no way they're gonna be this calm. And dude, for cheesing, paying not one trick left with a, with a, it's getting rid of them, right? That's the only one that's left.

Starting point is 01:21:09 Whoa. That's the only one that's left because since 2015, till now, in eight years, you know, you know, when you got a, how many trickery plays as a coach have? How many, how many, how many? Three or four really good. OK, well, let's you say a very, very good one

Starting point is 01:21:23 has how many say 20. Yeah. A team the other day tried the trickery play that they did in college and they tried to do it in the NFL Three or four really good. Okay, well let's just say very, very good one has how many? Say 20. Yeah. A team the other day tried the trickery play that they did in college and they tried to do it in the NFL at Backfire. And then it was a late, delayed what do you call it? Lateral pass. Not, no, there's a word for it.

Starting point is 01:21:35 From Boruski. No, anyway, so the point is that played every single trick in the book the last eight years on him. And they're done. They have nothing else left but to get one person that's crazy enough to go to the golf course or to do something like that. That is the only thing that's left.

Starting point is 01:21:56 Right now, they're sitting there. You know what they're all thinking to themselves. They're all sitting there saying, holy shit, this guy's about to be the president. There's an article that came out the other day that said, the playbook of Democrats not mentioning his name is gone out the window. Did you see this one where the Democrat media is now, where was that article, Tom? I read that on Drudge reporter, so I don't know if you're talking about it.

Starting point is 01:22:24 It was by this first full year after inaugurating, we're not even gonna mention it anymore. Yeah, the playbook of using Trump's name anymore is out the window, Democrats not using Trump out the window. Some title like that, Rob, if you can find it. What's the point? Oh, here you go.

Starting point is 01:22:41 Two days ago, New York Times, title is ignore Trump. Democrats now want him plastered all over the place. Guess what? They are so obsessed about this guy. They are ignored Trump. Democrats now want him plastered all over the news. The former president has been relatively quiet out of headlines and of mainstream social media.

Starting point is 01:23:03 Democrats are hoping that more attention on him helped turn around President Biden's fortunes. They don't understand, for the long sun, they're just not gonna talk about him. We're just not gonna do clips. We're just like, now they're like, oh shit, he's gonna win, we got a freaking, like, that's what they did last time and they empowered him. People like this Vinnie, when you go through a breakup

Starting point is 01:23:23 and some happens, or there's a fallen out, somebody leaves in the, like when I left the former company, never once, Tom will tell you this, the trainings were all about how bad I was from them. And people would send me videos of what the CEO of that company is saying about me in a meeting to another carrier that's a massive insurance company saying you can do business with any company but one. Okay, and that's, you know, you think. You can go anywhere but one.

Starting point is 01:23:53 You can go to any company we will not sue you, but you go to Pat, we'll sue you. It was anywhere but us. Guess how many times in training we mentioned their name. We never talked about them because we've moved on and guess what they kept doing. They use names, one guy that's a big motivational platform, all this of names, rumors constantly over and over and over and over again. You know what he kept doing? One day we're at Las Vegas. I have a convention going on Las Vegas. I'm across the street from them.

Starting point is 01:24:26 In their meeting, all they kept saying is, us, bash and over and over and over and over and over again. Guess what my Instagram is doing? All of a sudden I'm getting bombarded with Instagram videos, with the speeches. Their own people are sending me speeches. And then one guy comes over to us and says, hey, I have to know who you are, man,

Starting point is 01:24:46 because this entire commission was about you. Wow. And funnily, there are 12, 13,000 people there. All they wanna talk about is what's going on with us. You know what happened? They came over. Of course. They came over.

Starting point is 01:24:56 They came over. So the point is, they don't realize, you think this is working, it's not working. People are over you, bitching and whining and complaining while you don't have an argument. The way you win, and by the way, this was a mistake of Trump as well. Trump's mistake was, right after he's like,

Starting point is 01:25:14 well, it's not fair, it's not fair, it's not fair, it's not fair, it's not for constantly. And I called it on myself when we were on the show. I'm like, listen, you seem grumpy. You're allowing them to make you be grumpy. Go back to policies. Go back to results. Go back to what worked.

Starting point is 01:25:29 Go back to your strategy. Go back to what you did to America. Go back to what happened at the first three years of U.S. economy. If you do that, people are like, oh, he's right. Oh, he's right. Oh, he's right. Oh, he's instead of, you know, I just don't get any credit.

Starting point is 01:25:43 I just don't, no, just go back and give the argument what you did. So now Trump has to stick to that playbook and do what he does. These guys behind closed doors are losing their minds because you know what they're thinking to themselves. Here's what they're thinking to themselves. They didn't have to do this. If Trump was the president, their time was coming up. He was about to be done in a year. Exactly great point. You guys would have been done with Trump. But guess what? They intentionally forced it upon themselves

Starting point is 01:26:13 to have to talk about Trump for four more years. And not only that, you know what these four years did? You know, these three years, four years that Trump was in president did. It validated that all his policies, many of them, were great policies. That was the best part about the break of him, only being a one-term break, second term.

Starting point is 01:26:34 This could end up being a story to say the fact that he wasn't a back-to-back president validated that his policies were good, because if he was back-to to back, then they can spin it and say, well, it was terrible policies. Zimbeirysen gives it was for him to be a one-term. If he wins, the break could historically be aimed up turning into the best break that validated all of Trump's policies were great.

Starting point is 01:26:58 Wow. Can you put the New York Times back? That's crazy. Because that's happening. That's for a reason. That headline thing. That had just a little subhead right there. So Democrats are hoping more attention on him, Trump, can turn around Biden's fortunes.

Starting point is 01:27:12 You know why they say it this way? You know why the New York Times right it that way? Because President Biden doesn't have anything to sell that people are buying. And they're hoping that the attention on Trump causes Biden's polls to go up? No, you've got nothing to sell. When you sell vision, when you sell freedom, when you sell safety, when you sell education, when you sell something and you sell border and you sell, build it in American jobs, people are buying. There is nothing that Biden is selling

Starting point is 01:27:37 that people are buying. I just hope I, I will tell you what he's got to use. If I'm Biden's campaign manager, I have to show gas prices are lower this year. So I'm gonna show that. He has to show and find a way to take credit for the ceasefire. You have to do that.

Starting point is 01:27:56 Then he has to find a way to show that Thanksgiving food prices are less this year than they were last year. He has to do that. They have to use those things. They have to use it. But this strategy of Democrats are hoping that more attention on him can help turn around President. Do you know who's this, by the way, if I wouldn't have shown you who this article was from,

Starting point is 01:28:18 you would have said this is Fox Business or Fox News. Read the whole thing. Isn't there a guy? No, Trump. Democrats now want him, plan certain all of it in the news. Read the whole thing. It's New York Times. No Trump. Democrats now won him, plastered all over the news. The former president has been relatively quiet out of the headlines. And by the way, typically they don't even see former president. They'll see Mr. Trump headline, because they hate calling him former president. And off-mister media, Democrats are

Starting point is 01:28:37 hoping that that go up or up to show what website this is. This is New York Times. Oh wow. Yeah. When New York Times is writing articles like this, you're in trouble. Big time. Tom. So I think you both guys have really good points. One is a policy thing, Tom, and one is a personality thing, PBD. Policy wise, what percentage of Americans vote via policy? Probably 20%.

Starting point is 01:29:01 Most people vote on personality. Well, they don't call it that. They think about their wallet or their job. Right. But Biden actually does have some W's that he can put out there, whether it's the inflation reduction act or whether it's the infrastructure, whether the ceasefire happens. There are some policy wins that he can highlight. But most people don't vote via policy. They look at the personality and Tom, you're absolutely right on this. If you're just going to try to highlight Biden's personality,

Starting point is 01:29:28 the old sort of aloof dementia-esque type person, it's not a winning strategy. So their strategy is like, all right, well, we can't highlight Biden. We're going to have to highlight Trump. And they're going to paint them in a negative light, obviously. So that's sort of their focus. And we're going to see if that works this time.

Starting point is 01:29:46 But I think we're in a collision course for Trump versus the media part three. Trump won number one, the media won number two, and we're about to see what happens in 2024 when the media tries to take on Trump for the third time. At the very least, the media should understand this. When Trump's in office, your ratings go way up. So if you're looking at just money and not ideology,

Starting point is 01:30:11 just go ahead and vote for Trump. Yeah, even CNN has Brian Seltzer's back talking on CNN. Oh, he's back on CNN. I saw him talk, yeah, I don't know if he still look like a thumb. He's still discussing, I just hate looking at his freaking ugly ass face. Vinnie, Vinnie, don't be so personal. No, no, no, no. I'm just not the person.

Starting point is 01:30:25 No, the problem I think is people like us need to start saying to hell with the bro, how long we gonna let them walk over us because here's by the way that smile really pisses me off. It's just I want people to realize like, okay, obviously Joe Biden is not gonna run. Let's not be stupid. They would be good on unusual suspects. Who, by and stilter? Yeah.

Starting point is 01:30:42 Oh, he's very unusual. But Pat, my thing is this. He's like a less good looking non-bearded robgar, Jule. Now Rob is way better looking. As I said, now I'm just saying here's my point. No, it's funny. It's talented is we. Where we going? I had to bet my money and I bet a lot of it. Biden's not going to run. It's going to be new. Some I wouldn't put a pass Michelle not wanting to do it. I'm saying, listen, you're going to do it because you have to do it. What are the point is this? What's going to be new some, I wouldn't put a pass Michelle, not wanting to do it. I'm saying, listen, you're going to do it because you have to do it.

Starting point is 01:31:06 What are the, my point is this, what is going, because Pat, okay, let's say it's not, you know, and might be a terrorist thing. It might be a, a new pandemic number two. Do not sleep on the Democrats for coming up with something to not let us vote and you have to vote for won't bet. That's my one point, and I'm saying it right now. So when it does happen, I want to tell everybody I told you guys so that it was going to happen. It's going to vote for one. But that's my one point, and I'm saying it right now. So when it does happen, I want to tell everybody, I told you guys so that it was gonna happen.

Starting point is 01:31:28 It's gonna happen, Pat. There's no way they're gonna just go, okay, everybody, go vote, go vote for Newsom. I don't put it past them. I'm just saying it. It cannot use the same playbook. It's gonna have to be a new playbook they have to use. Not the COVID playbook.

Starting point is 01:31:41 So you don't think people, so you guys don't think if they said right now late breaking news, this COVID-19 or whatever, it's coming from trying to happen again. Americans wouldn't lock the fuck down in the city. No, no, no, no, they were not. They were not. They were not. You, you, you give us too much credit as Americans.

Starting point is 01:31:58 I tell you, that part will be no. I really think it's all, I say that part will be no. I have a, I already said everything up to, but I'm telling you, they have to come up with another creative strategy. I really think it's all I say that part will be no. I have a, or I've already said everything up to, but I'm telling you they have to come up with another creative strategy. I have a question for me. I have a farm there and I have any a question. This, this, I can ask you off camera, but I think it's a better for camera. So you came from LA via New York.

Starting point is 01:32:19 You were in the Hollywood scene, the comedy scene. You were amongst the liberals, okay? As real as no, no, no, I, you were amongst the liberals. Okay. As real. As real. As real. No, no, I'm from Florida, bro. This is very personal.

Starting point is 01:32:31 Oh, yeah. You weren't on a certain show. I forgot. Let me drink this really quick. What show? Rob, the Adam. Yeah. Here's my question.

Starting point is 01:32:39 Tom's as great an interrupting. But since you've obviously been here and been more exposed to this, you've sprinted right clearly. I wanna know your relationship with all your friends back home. Did they see what you're doing now? They're like, Vinnie, I'm discussing with you. They're like, kind of have a point.

Starting point is 01:32:55 Like, where you at with everyone that you've been associated with for the last decade? That's a great question because one of these just happened yesterday. I'm giving a lot of the people that were technically hiding and the closet with the Trump, that Trump lovers, I hate to say like that, just what he was basically standing for is F the system.

Starting point is 01:33:13 The majority of them now are like, Vinny, I love, I see what you're doing good for it. But then the hardcore Trump, War War 3, Russian agent, Bubba, those are some silent ass people right now. But Adam, I messaged Those are some silent ass people right now, but Adam, I messaged him once in a while and I go, so how's it going? How's your money doing? How's the border? Now they're worried about you.

Starting point is 01:33:33 You're antagonizing us. Oh, not antagonizing us. Adam, because I think we have to come to a point where we go like this now. We told you so. I fucking told these people, you're being duped. You're being, how many times, and I hate to be this guy,

Starting point is 01:33:45 but I kinda don't, how many times do I have to be right? How many times do I have to say the Russian collusion thing was fake? How many times do I have to say all that? Hillary was in charge of it. Hillary cheated and the DNC, China Bernie. How many more coincidences have to happen where people wake up?

Starting point is 01:34:00 I don't give a shit what side are you on? When it's wrong, it's wrong. So I didn't lose any friends from the right The ones that were kind of right but the ones on the left atom they're just silent and they're just swallowing it right now A lot of them are move by the way a lot of them that were hardcore left this moved out. They're back home I go why why'd you move why'd you leave Los Angeles? Well Crime and and the taxes and I go oh, but what it was cool on the Trump Oh, man, yeah, the taxes and I go, oh, but what it was cool on the Trump. Oh, man. Yeah.

Starting point is 01:34:25 You were there chilling and talking shit, but you were safe and you were fucking making money. I go, now all of a sudden you had to leave. So I was right. So I think it's not. COVID just exacerbated the obvious. No, they were still there. No, they were still there.

Starting point is 01:34:36 And then again, you have to ask yourself the question. How coincidence that during election year, this thing comes out of China where Trump was talking should about and they're still not accountable. Still no accountability every week is another FBI story where they're like, well, it could be a lab leak. When are we going to stop playing this? We still don't know all these years later. We can't admit that it came from their path. When is the game going to stop? Yes, but that's why there's elections. And that's why the people who don't want to see that happen in 2024, who are sick of it, have to be vocal, have to be

Starting point is 01:35:14 more involved, have to have better arguments, have to be better at selling, have to be better at convincing, have to get their peers involved, have to have better rebuttals, have to do better research, have to have answers based on facts and stats and data, and the better prepared you are as you're talking to other people who are giving you whatever their arguments are, and enough of the reasonable people and the guys that sat on the fence or were sitting on the bench

Starting point is 01:35:41 last time saying, I don't want to vote, are going to come on and say, no, this is, I'm not with this. And then 2024 could be a different result. But all I'm saying to you is, don't underestimate, you know, the last couple presidential assassinations and attempts that's happened, you know, how many of them have been involved with the opposition winning?

Starting point is 01:36:04 You know, John F. Kennedy gets assassinated four days later, LBJ is saying, let's start a war and weapons, the military, industrial complex people are like, yeah, pro LBJ, what a great guy you are making us all this money. So, was it LBJ? Was it who was involved in that situation? The people that I try to kill, you know, Reagan, the assassination, Reagan, the

Starting point is 01:36:25 assassination of Reagan, that's also linked to somebody else. So, there's a lot of weird things that could happen. If there's anything that needs to be very, very important is keeping him as secure and safe as possible and taking security to different measures, today, you just have to do it today, because they don't have a lot more plays out of their playbook. to different measures today. You just have to do it today because they don't have a lot more plays out of their playbook. Does he still have secret service? Yeah, of course. Oh my gosh, Trump Jr. does the same.

Starting point is 01:36:53 Oh, Pat, it's called the Flea Flicker. The Flea Flicker, where they throw it back and you do the hell married, that was a play that you were talking about. All right, so let's go to a couple of ones, Shana will wrap up. 15% tip, let's talk about this one. Most Americans tip 15% or less,

Starting point is 01:37:09 okay, or less. All right, let me go to this. That's a pretty crazy. And sub-tipping, this is a CNBC story. Pew Research Survey, survey 11,945 Americans, found that 18% of people tip less than 15% for an average meal out of sit-down restaurant and an additional tip two percent tip.

Starting point is 01:37:30 I'm sorry an additional two percent tip nothing at all. That's one out of 50 people in America that go to dinner don't tip anything at all. Meanwhile 37% said 15% is their standard tip revealing a lack of consensus on tipping etiquette. Despite the tradition of tipping 15 to 20% for sit down restaurant, service to survey found that more than half of people, 57% tip, 15% or less, this indicates that tipping norms vary widely amongst Americans, studies suggest that tip fatigue has led to declining tip amounts in recent times with the average nationwide tip

Starting point is 01:38:10 at full service restaurants falling to 19.4% in the second quarter of 2023. Tom has a story here, Tom, I want to go to you first. Go for it. What happened to you this last week at this restaurant called Capital Grill, which I think is out of bulk of if I'm not mistaken. That's correct, go for it. Nothing to do with Capital Grill Steve

Starting point is 01:38:29 that we love in Crescent in Dallas who crushes it. He's amazing. One of the best servers in the world. Exactly, he's one of the goats, go ahead Tom. So first of all, the people at a restaurant are not robots. Every location is different and God bless you Steve. We love you down there. If you go down

Starting point is 01:38:45 by the crescent and Dallas and you go to Kaplow Grill and you're asked for Steve, you are not going to get bad service. But unfortunately, so Brooker gets straight A's and she's doing really well. I say, Hey Brooker, let's go to dinner. And we sit down and she gets a sorely temple and we're going to have this. And we were just freaking ignored. You know, the step one, you know, the hostess wants to put it to this table that they had put up for a Saturday and it's right next to doors, you know what I'm talking about, Pat, and you have the same reaction I do.

Starting point is 01:39:15 It's like, come on, that table isn't even there Monday through Friday, all respectfully I'm not sitting there. When we sat down, they come up and they're quick when they didn't come check on us, you know, normally you go to a good place, you order steak, and that's what we had. You cut into it once. And a lot of times, the Ruth Chris, they say,

Starting point is 01:39:32 well, you please cut into your steak, is that exactly the way you want it. You know what I'm talking about? I love that. And they always do that. Is that exactly the way you want it? Thank you so much. And they check on the spot.

Starting point is 01:39:42 This, they drop it down, and I want to get a refill for Brooks really temple, and the lady walks away. Excuse me, excuse me. Thank you so much and they check on the spot this they drop it down and I want to get a refill for for Brooks really temple and the lady walks away excuse me excuse me. I feel like I'm hovering at her walking down the hall So I got the hostess who sat the other table it said could you help me here? You know and I said to her the aliens that have taken our server can you let them know that Brooke would like Refill your hilarious really temple and she goes what and I said our server, can you let them know that Brooke would like refilled for sure? Serly temple. And she goes, what?

Starting point is 01:40:08 And I said, can we do this? And it just, it stacked up. And I was very frustrated and disappointed. And I'm like, and my stake was cooked wrong. And so I don't even get the opportunity there. And so I finally just, I said, a broker. I said, broker, we're gonna go someplace else for dessert. And there's just a sort of thing.

Starting point is 01:40:29 So, you know, I flagged the server down and I said, I like to pack up to go, please. And I handed her my card. And she's like, what? And I left a note on there. And I said, you know what? I pulled a note on there, no profanity with a zero tip. And went down the street to Aben Lewis, walked in, said to the hostess,

Starting point is 01:40:52 do you have a table for two for dessert? And now this is like 830. She said, we sure do. And I said, we came from another place. And I did not tell them, this is capital gross. We came from another place. And my daughter got straight A's. And I just want her treated royalty

Starting point is 01:41:06 and dessert was supposed to be part of it. And she said, no problem. I'm taking you to Charlie. And Charlie treated Brooke like he was her long lost uncle. She wanted hot tea, he came over and he opened the box to tea slowly, just demonstrating service. And you know what I did to Charlie?

Starting point is 01:41:24 I made his fricking night. And you know what I did to Charlie? I made his freaking night, and I thanked him profusely for making Brook fill like a million bucks, which is all I wanted. But I'm my normal tip. I'm 20% baseline, and if I get really good service, I'll go 2530.

Starting point is 01:41:37 I normally am there to encourage and appreciate your good tip, or if Tom comes, you're gonna get a good tip from him. So you ended up tipping them how much? I gave I gave Charlie 200 bucks for how much was the bill? 40 bucks for two desserts and then and tees so he got 400% 500% tip is what he got that's really what it is if you think about it, okay?

Starting point is 01:42:00 I mean that what happens with me? I go to Louis boss. Remember how we used to go to Louis bossy and in bulk all the time Oh, yeah, I treated us royally. to Louis Boss. Remember how we used to go to Louis Bossy in Bokal all the time? Oh, yeah. And the treat it as royally. It was freaking awesome. I don't recognize anybody there. We went there with the family the other day. And I asked to sit at the corner table. The hostess just turns her back against me,

Starting point is 01:42:17 doesn't say anything. I'm like, okay, maybe these guys are crazy busy. They were not. Finally, we come back. Kid comes, Jennifer comes in with the kids. I said, we'd like to get a table in the corner. They take us. Finally, we come back. Kid comes, Jennifer comes in with the kids. I said, we'd like to get a table in the corner. They take us to the table in the corner. Waitress comes in saying, is it water for everybody? And we said, yes. And I said, is there any way you can lower the AC temperature here? It's very, very cool.

Starting point is 01:42:40 Maybe turn it off. Nope. Just with a no, huh? I swear to God. Because that's the word the kids have been joking about the entire weekend. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no I didn't mean that. I said, no, you'll never see me here ever again. By the way, Tom, how many times have you seen me go to a restaurant? So I'll never come back here and never again. You'll never see me there ever again. I can tell you, you've personally experienced this with me. But it's only a few because you know what, you know what we do? We give people what's called patronage and we keep coming back for lunch and they always Louis Bosse. We used to have all these people go for best. It was the best. How many times a week would we go to Louis Bosse? Honestly Adam, if you were to eight days a week,

Starting point is 01:43:27 I mean, if you're eight, if you honestly write down, say, if you and I, for the seven, for the year that we worked at Boca, how many times did you and I go to Louis Bosse together with people? How many times collect total in a year? How many? Probably at least 50 times. 50 times in a year.

Starting point is 01:43:42 That's crazy. But that's just, and that's him. That's just, that's him. You mean with all the people? We always at Louis Bosse. You were 50 times at least that. That's crazy. And that's just, and that's just, you mean with other people? We always at home, you were cheating on me, we were like, what, what,

Starting point is 01:43:50 what, so we get up and the kids are like, okay, they've seen this before, so look, okay, all right, so what we're going to next, and we start looking, everybody's hungry. So we're driving around,

Starting point is 01:44:00 we said, okay, I'm explaining to the kids, says, daddy, what just happened? Why did that lady say no? Yeah. I said, okay, I'm explaining to the kids. Says, daddy, what just happened? Why did that lady say nope? Yeah. I said, okay, I said number one, you don't talk to customers like that, however,

Starting point is 01:44:13 when I was younger, I was coming up, I wanted very, very good respect and service everywhere I went. But guess what, I haven't deserved it. Who the hell are you to give you the great respect? You go on a Chipotle, bro, you're spending ten bucks. We're not giving you great service. You're going to get what you're getting for the money. Now restaurants like Chick-fil-A, which you've been... And free food poisoning at Chipotle. The data you'll give here in a minute with Chick-fil-A, which is very important to realize, most restaurants go to any McDonald's on Yelp. Look at the reviews. One and a half. one, one and a half,

Starting point is 01:44:46 one and a half, one and a half. It's all one and a half, one and a half, one and a half, one and a half, why? Because you're spending five, 10, 15, 20 bucks, right? I said, if you go to a regular restaurant where the bill is gonna be 20, look at that, one and a half, 1.3, I'm telling you. What the hell you want?

Starting point is 01:44:58 Okay, so, so, so, this motherfucker want food apparently. Oh, you want it to be hot too? So why is this? There's got things in these hot foods. So I said, if you go to a restaurant, I'm telling Bill and Lentico, there's like, I'm telling Tico and Dilland, I said, if you go to a restaurant,

Starting point is 01:45:13 what a bill is not high, but they give you great service, you got to take care of it. Yeah, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm like, yes. I don't even tell them, I'm assuming. You'll remember you have them so much.

Starting point is 01:45:23 So anyways, we go to seasons 52 I'm parking a car these guys Not a nice restaurant. It's a it's a it's a ticket is like that Girl you're right. You're right. It's I would say it's a level below capital grill I would actually put capital girls and the way I'm saying below is bill the money you're gonna spend I capital girl is gonna be two times the amount of money you're gonna spend at seasons 52. A lot. Two times. Two times, yeah.

Starting point is 01:45:50 Yeah, so anyway, so we go to seasons 52. And I'm parking a car, me and Dylan are walking in. I finally find them. I come inside and Jennifer's like, babe, we just, the waiter's name is Michael. And we're all watching the sky and the car. Everyone's talking about, we're gonna just, the waiter's name is Michael. And we're all watching the sky and the car. Everyone's talking about, we're gonna experience what the waiter's gonna be like. Michael's like, hey, how are you?

Starting point is 01:46:11 Listen, great to have you guys here. What can I get you, mom? What would you like, dad? What can I get you? This guy crushes it, and I keep asking him. Zero to 10 guys. Daddy, this guy's good. He's not said nope one time.

Starting point is 01:46:24 That's him right there. That's him right there. That's him right there. So go out to Michael. The bill comes at the end. Michael's been fantastic. So we bill him. We tip him 100%. So I'm talking to the kids, what do you think we should tip him?

Starting point is 01:46:41 Should we tip him the 25%? No, we should tip them more. 30% no, how about we do 40%, I said, how about we do 100%, we're gonna do 100%? I said, but here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna do 100% and you're gonna walk up to him and you're gonna give him the check with 100% tip and tell him how we as a family,

Starting point is 01:47:00 the David family values great service when you go above and beyond and you did that and we value that so much. Thank you for doing this. They walk up to him, they give him the tip and they explain to him what it is. This grown man is listening to Tiko, giving him the tip, he's got emotion, he's emotional.

Starting point is 01:47:18 That's so awesome. And we take a picture, says, you guys wanna take a picture? I wanna take a, I said no bro, we wanna take a picture with you. Michael, season 52, if you guys are in a bulk area, you go to their ass form and absolute start up a freaking guy when it comes down to service,

Starting point is 01:47:34 you were phenomenal, without even knowing. We didn't even tell him we're coming from a bad experience. Oh, really? I just wanted the kids to know, because sometimes when that's the case, you go above and beyond. Of course.

Starting point is 01:47:43 I just wanted to see what he was going to do. He freaking crushed it. So to the people out there that are tipping 2%, the 2% that tips less than 15%, the 2% that tips nothing, and the people that tip 15%, I will tell you, some people deserve zero tip. Their customer service sucks. They think you owe them something,

Starting point is 01:48:01 but some people deserve 100% tip. When you meet somebody that's great, show up. When you meet somebody that brings the refill way before you even think about it, show up. When you find somebody that asks you, doesn't use short words, isn't quick with you. So we roleplayed, what's the proper answer? Dylan says, so what should the answer be?

Starting point is 01:48:22 I said, let's roleplay. We're at the restaurant, we're roleplayed. I said, okay, tell me what I asked the waitress. Is there any way to lower the temperature? Because it's very cold here, maybe turn off the AC. So Dylan says, nope. That's not what she's saying. And then Tiko says, yes, let me see what I can do.

Starting point is 01:48:40 I'll get back to you. Then Sena says, I don't know if we can do anything, but I'm gonna find a way. Then Dylan says, I don't know if we can do anything, but I'm gonna find a way. Then Dylan says, you know the AC in this corner control is the entire restaurant, but maybe we can see to somewhere else if you're okay, that's warmer. It's mine.

Starting point is 01:48:54 I said, that's all you have to say. You don't have to say, nope. There's a freaking nope. The PE is just a studio. Oh my God. Nope. That's way worse than that. By the way, by the way, do you see that kitchen?

Starting point is 01:49:07 Straight down the aisle behind him. Is that Jose in the back? No, no, no, I would know you that building season 52 I'm glad you drove yeah a business center drive in 1984 is when that building was built the reason I know that is I worked in that kitchen Tom be quiet the restaurant was called the restaurant was called the cork and cleaver. Are you serious? And it was an original steakhouse in Boka. And when that was built brand new, um, what do you do for them, Tom? That, that, Tom, that's your old stomping ground.

Starting point is 01:49:37 The restaurant. Yeah. You a cook or a chever? You were, uh, I was, I was the chef's assistant. Really? You're so chef. Shit. Well, of course, steakhouse. Yes, I was a sous chef, but in a Really? You're so sure. Shit. Well, of course, take out.

Starting point is 01:49:46 Yes, I was the sous chef, but in a steakhouse, and that's not a complicated. This is a do you know what the reputation was of this place? Customers would leave super happy after six years of investigation. They realize the chef would put a little bit of edible wheat in the days, eighties into the meal. Wow.

Starting point is 01:50:03 Freakin nonstop. Everybody's just happy and hungry. Well back then there was no Twitter, but Tom was a big part of it. Contribute. Good job, Tom. I just want to add one thing. It all kind of makes sense,

Starting point is 01:50:12 because everything that you're basically saying about your family experience, I've lived with all the restaurants that I've done with you, whether it was Yard House in Dallas, we shout out to our boy Jason. He made the perfect Arnold Paul. I love that. And then we would always eat at this amazing French restaurant to lose

Starting point is 01:50:29 Fuck team. Yeah, no dude. Pat is a loyal guy. If you treat him right, he will come back And we go and then I mean obviously here in Fort Lauderdale our relationship with Casa Casa de Angelo Everything with that even on your birthday when we were in Prime one 12 in Miami and the waiter and he gave back he paid half the bill like that value service and it all like sort of coalesces with everything that's happened with Will will Why do you say that there will good there are unreasonable unreasonable hospitality? I just something you ultimately realize. I'm so glad you remind me of that. If any, if this clip goes and the restaurant, because remember that one time we did something

Starting point is 01:51:09 with the haircut, $72 haircut. Yeah. And then that took off and people were calling it. With your friend. Yeah, it drew. Yeah. But if anybody's in the restaurant business, and I'm just being honest with you, if you run a, if you, if you're the manager, or if you're a leader, if you're a waiter that wants to get paid better go read the damn book unreasonable hospitality. Yes. Can you put this thing up everybody in the service business must read unreasonable hospitality by Can I be honest agabli Pat what what am I listening to right now on my on my phone look at my phone right there What's what's what's what am I listening to again

Starting point is 01:51:45 for the second time? I'm reasonable. And I guess what I just heard, I sort of got this so weird on the way in here. I'm listening to the audio book. I forgot which restaurant was. I think he was working there. You love the Madison or it wasn't love. I might be wrong. I don't want to I don't want to miss miss State it. They're eating at the restaurant and this family that's visiting that's never seen snow and it starts snowing outside. Guess what the owner does.

Starting point is 01:52:06 Has something like going by and snow? He went and got some snow. No, they went and got sleds and they went sledding. They drove like half an hour and they were, he took the whole family sledding. He told the tour. Yeah, great. And you imagine going, oh my God, honey, snow and they took the whole kids and that's, but you'll never forget that memory.

Starting point is 01:52:22 I gotta get a video shout out. Yes. For, you know, this guy, he practices unreason, that's, but you'll never forget that memory. I gotta get Vinnie a shout out. Yes. For, you know, this guy, he practices unrea- Like, he made me my turkey plate over here. You. After the podcast. You gotta gift you. This guy, every, after every episode,

Starting point is 01:52:34 hey, I got yogurt and fruit, you're very hospitable. That's why he's doing it. My mom made a little cookie, he's got his whole thing. I look, but I'll say this, cause I was a server in college, right? And no matter what business you're in, you're in the people business.

Starting point is 01:52:49 And if you want to practice unreasonable hospitality, you want like any server that's working their job and they're like, what's next, get into sales. Because server, if you're a server, you have to deal with people. If it take orders, you have to understand. There's good days, there's bad days, there's winning, there's losing, there's so many different things that you can do,

Starting point is 01:53:05 but at the end of the day, unreasonable hospitality. Loving people and making people happy, but when you do something for somebody, give them something and they're shocked, and it just makes me feel good. And I got that obviously being a Syrian and my mom, my mom just, keep up to go. Shout out to your mom.

Starting point is 01:53:20 My mom, Svitlana, sweet Lana. Svitlana, we miss you. We miss you. Happy Thanksgiving mom. Wish mom, yeah, sweet Lana, sweet Lana, sweet Lana, we love you. We miss you. Happy Thanksgiving mom. Wish you were here. Tom, we have a story here. It's very interesting. Tomorrow is Black Friday.

Starting point is 01:53:33 Yeah. Today is Turkey Day and this is, you know, we're all into football today, right? Yeah. Tom, you have no idea how much I want to get in the food fight with you right now. I thought maybe you're going to bust it out through with some mashed potatoes.

Starting point is 01:53:44 I'm sorry, Tom. We can do that later, baby. Yeah. Yeah, that's right. So check this out. Amazon is paying $100 million for the broadcast rights to one game and it's the Black Friday game. And Black Friday is on Friday and the dark. And by the way, they've never done that

Starting point is 01:54:06 because the NFL never does a black Friday game for two reasons. It was a holiday. People are going shopping and the other thing you're ready for this, the sports broadcasting act of 1961, which is federal law prohibited the NFL from putting games on Fridays after six o'clock because they were protecting college and high school football. Yeah. And they felt that that was an important tradition for America and they didn't want to let televised commercialization

Starting point is 01:54:30 football do it. Well, why did Amazon buy this? Check this out. Amazon paid $100 million for the game and they checked in that they weren't breaking the law if they broadcast the game at three o'clock. So it was over by six o'clock so why are they putting this game this game is going to be on amazon prime but

Starting point is 01:54:48 you know it's playing though my me dolphins baby versus the new york jets my head okay got the dog by the way you're you're you made an amazing appearance it with the by the way dolphin usually destroys ratings on Thanksgiving the average Thanksgiving day NFL game for the past four years has been 33 million viewers. The NBA Christmas Day game has never exceeded 5 million viewers.

Starting point is 01:55:13 Yeah, not comparable. Not comparable. So why did Amazon pay $100 million for one game? Step one, they're gonna watch everybody can watch it on Amazon for free. Not to prime people. Remember it used to be you had to pay for Amazon Prime to get Thursday night football from Amazon?

Starting point is 01:55:28 That is it, that it. Now here comes the crazy thing. They're charging advertisers $880,000 for 30 seconds. The normal NFL game outside of playoffs is $440,000. Double the price. Double the price. And they're doing get this audience based creative You're gonna be watching it on the Amazon channel right for free if you are an Amazon prime user

Starting point is 01:55:51 You're gonna get these ads if you're not an Amazon prime user You're gonna get different ads that are tailored to you Boz has signed up and they will be three different ads Joe burrow will go to the non prime Viewers and the other Bose ads are there androw will go to the non-prime viewers and the other Bose ads are there. And while you're watching the game, check this out Pat, you can click on the screen and put the product in your shopping cart.

Starting point is 01:56:13 Oh, shit. Oh, that is. Without turning away from the game. You're making some sales. And, personal profit pool. They will be retargeting. They estimate that Amazon is probably gonna net, net, net, do on this. They're probably not going to lose money. It's probably a $2 billion pay day. So Tom, here it is. So you're saying if the camera cuts, I'm watching it on my phone and it cuts

Starting point is 01:56:36 to the cheerleaders and I'm like, damn, I want that skirt. I could just hit it. I think I think some of the probably, but the point is Amazon is bringing together football, shopping, black Friday and technology. Pretty small and this is a family's Tom. And and but look at this. I mean, I just think we were talking about AI at the beginning of the show. Yeah, look at all the

Starting point is 01:56:59 technology and AI that's that's literally in the background here. And nice. And Amazon goes knock, knock, knock to NFL says, can't be a hundred thousand for a game on technology and AI that's that's literally in the background here and nice and Amazon goes knock knock knock to NFL says can't be a hundred thousand for a game on Friday They turned each other say hey on a second Louis. This is so easy. Yeah. Yeah, sure Please why are that right over will give you the dolphins on on black Friday Tom real quick. Who do you like dolphins or jets? That's a tough one dolphins. Yeah, Zachi. He's bench now. He's benched now. He's gone to third string. Oh, damn, I mean, yeah, I'm I mean look at that.

Starting point is 01:57:29 Third stringer now. After the latest loss of the bills, you looked at me like I was like shocked. Anyway, it's not just football today. Turkey day. It's going to be in a full. 50 for sure. What do you like on the dolphins by the way, Tom? Dolphins who? Who do you like on the dolphins? Like what players? Iphin suit. Who do you like on the dolphins like what players? I've always had a lot of respect for Tua I remember Tua playing in the bowl games for Alabama and I thought wow this guy is I felt he was a little bit more special than just the normal You know run option quarterback you going so with this and I just and I want to see him and I've also I've also I've been a fan of Cheetah

Starting point is 01:58:02 Since he was in Kansas. I recall. Yeah. Yeah, there you go, Tom. I'm thinking he's about to do it. I do the brochure, Lele brochure. Okay. Tom killed that segment. I know he did. I was a fantastic guy.

Starting point is 01:58:15 This is awesome. Okay. Well, listen, gang, this was great. We were debating whether to do this or not. I didn't want to do it, but Adam said, no, we have to. I can't believe in the yelled at you. How he pointed. And I want to wake up at 6 a.m.

Starting point is 01:58:29 I'm going to thank for showing. Then listen, after a lot of convincing, we finally agreed to do it. Enjoy the Thanksgiving. I'll give you final thoughts here to be thinking about. One of the hardest things to do is to be grateful. And what I mean by that is a lot of people have an easy time not being grateful, they're typically wanting

Starting point is 01:58:51 to feel more entitled. And it's the people that I've met that have continuously one who are typically the happiest and enjoy life the most for whatever reason are the most grateful people in the world. I don't know why. They're just more grateful. People want to work for grateful people. People want to help grateful people. People want to go above and beyond for grateful people. There's magic in having gratitude and sometimes we are forced to have a day a year to sit there and be grateful for different things that has happened over the years to you. I got a long list of stuff.

Starting point is 01:59:27 I feel I'm like the luckiest man alive, but I just want to tell you, I'm sure I speak on behalf of everybody here with the crew as well. We are grateful for you. I personally can't say I'm grateful for those of you that used to watch two minutes with Pat with my pink socks, where back in the days,
