And I know a lot of you guys have been waiting, but those of you who have, we have a big show here for you today. We are not in the States, if you don't already know. This isn't the usual set, guys. We are out of the country. By the end or middle of the podcast, we may reveal a video to kind of show to you where we are for some of you guys that don't know.
Starting point is 00:01:45 And I'll maybe give you a little bit of a hint why we're here, why we decided to be here at a crazy time like this with all the stuff that's going on for us. But there's a lot of stories that's going on. And I have so many opinions. I know Tom does. I know a lot of us do. And I'm sure some of you guys do as well on these topics that we'll cover here. Let me kind of get into some of them.
Starting point is 00:02:03 Again, it's one of those things where I feel like we haven't done a podcast for quite a few days and so much has happened. Trump is not happy with Putin. On a call he specifically said, I am not happy with what he's doing. We'll talk about that. Even calling him crazy. All caps. All caps.
Starting point is 00:02:20 Calling him crazy. Caitlin Clark is driving the WNBA insane. It's to the point that she may need to step away from the WNBA, have a billionaire come in that has the money to prove a point, and say, Kaitlyn, I'll pay you $50 million just to see if the WNBA can make it without you. Let's go create a completely different league and expose the hell out of the WNBA just to embarrass this Angel Reese girl that Jamil Hill just said she could go down as a Michael Jordan of WNBA
Starting point is 00:02:50 Yeah, and what wait did I show you a couple statistics here? And then Ryan Clark made a comment about you know, RG 3 and saying RG 3 you wouldn't know what it's like You're married to a white woman This thing got very ugly very quickly and a Brittany Griner this guy out of nowhere comes out and what happened this guy out of nowhere He didn't he doesn't he shoot without a shirt on like isn't it? I thought I mean I saw him shooting at his pool And I'm under the impression. It's a transgender. It's not like he was wearing surf trunks by the pool I'm being generally confused. She may be it may be I thought it's a guy but when the top was he She may be maybe I thought it's a guy but when the top of he
Starting point is 00:03:31 Brittany let's just say Brittany comes out and Brittany makes some comments saying I missed the good old WNBA days when the audience weren't here and it wasn't packed. It was more like a She calls her she calls Caitlin a white trash and by the way, you know what happens to Caitlin? We'll talk about that here was something happened to Caitlin. It's gonna oh really mix it up Yes, Trump is giving a speech and he starts talking about trophy wives, which by the way is another one of those funny things, but you've got to love this guy. He'll say things that drive a lot of other people insane. Cuomo made some comments on the religion of Islam. Tommy Robinson is officially free.
Starting point is 00:03:55 There's a TV network in Lebanon that I want to show you one of these clips of this man who's a host who happens to be Muslim and on this Lebanon Broadcasting International he interviews 10 year old, 13 year old girls that are with a 27 year old man crying, it's wild, LBC, and it's not for the LBC you think about, this is a different LBC, like I'm talking like Long Beach Crypt, we're talking about the radio station and TV station on Lebanon. And then Oprah, I got an old clip of Oprah I want to show, a very old clip of Oprah I want to show to you guys. Money market, a very interesting data was shared by Shamati the other day that I re-tweeted
Starting point is 00:04:34 that shows how much money is in money market today. It's the highest money we've ever had in money markets ever. It's not really a good sign because a money market where you go is to play safe because you don't really know what's going on with the market. I'll show it to you guys. I'm sure Tom's got some thoughts. Jordan Peterson did one of these Jubilee type of shows, you know, where they kind of sit there and talk, and he's talking to all these other, this other Christian, one of the Christian
Starting point is 00:04:58 kids said something and it seemed like to be a little bit of a clash. I actually want to get Tom's thoughts as well as your thoughts on it. Harvard foreign students are upset at Trump. Kristi Noem came and said something to Harvard directly. Trump is thinking about taking $3 billion of money out from Harvard to give it to trade schools. Very interesting what it's formulating over there. One fun fact about the NBA I want to kind of reveal to you guys, and I saw this, I said, you know what I think could be a story all the way at the end that we can talk about?
Starting point is 00:05:28 Nuclear energy. There's a story about nuclear energy and what the president is doing to accelerate. We right now I think only have one in development right now that are waiting for permits. China's got 18 pending that they're already going through and they're accelerating and our permits are slowing down the process of coming up with these next nuclear plans which we do need. Tim Cook may get a 25% tariff tax. If he doesn't build these iPhones in the States, Trump's not happy about it. We'll see what's going to happen there.
Starting point is 00:05:52 And then Tim Cook makes a phone call to the Texas governor about these child safety legislation that I think maybe a little bit of Leila Mikkelwit was pushing with the guest that we had on the podcast because she was going after Pornhub and we had the owners of Pornhub here on the podcast. Shipping costs for companies may double due to the China-US trade war that's taking place. There was a, I think it was a five year anniversary of George Floyd's, what's the word? Overdose. He overdosed. Five year anniversary of it.
Starting point is 00:06:22 He did overdose. And then there was a major boycotting of Target. Target is in the middle of this. They don't know how to handle it. You should have seen this mayor crying. It's a lot of spectacles going on, but we'll talk about that. Macron got hit by his husband
Starting point is 00:06:33 and it was a very weird situation when you saw this. Hey Pat, boys will be boys. I mean, it is what it is. A part of it is just at this point of the game. Getting off an airplane, maybe he didn't let him sit in first class or something. I don't know what it was, but it was pretty upsetting. It was pretty upsetting on what happened.
Starting point is 00:06:51 MTG, she had something that happened with Grok, I believe. They had a feud because somebody said, is she still a Christian, is she not a Christian, what's going on? And she got upset and she went after it. And then there was another chat bot, which folks, this is crazy. Another chatbot threatened the user that if you share this with others I'm going to tell
Starting point is 00:07:12 your wife that you're having an affair because I know what you're searching based on your phones. That's some creepy stuff right there. And it searched his email on his computer. Let me tell you that is'm scared it's gonna be some real stuff for some guys. Holy moly! Guys before you get your phone with all the different chatbots, you may want to listen up to this one here. We're just gonna clean up your life and get rid of some distraction. Alright, Iran, the fifth round of
Starting point is 00:07:39 negotiation. There's a profile, I found a video about back in the days what Iran's what the USCIS profile was on the Shah and they broke it down. Very interesting negotiation. There's a profile. I found a video about back in the days with Iran's what the USC eyes profile was on the shot and they broke it down very interesting to watch. I found a clip of the show with Walt Disney that we got to see as well. And we got a few other things here. I believe we have Adam. Adam, tell us let's see how you sound. Can you say a few words Adam to see if we can hear you loud and clear? He's not listening. Adam, can you hear us or no? Adam, we can't hear the dialogue on the Nutrisystem ad. So it's okay. Rob, if you want to speak with them and maybe tell them to turn off that adult movie as Plane in the Background.
Starting point is 00:08:06 But anyways, alright, so we'll figure this thing out. Everybody's in different places. We've done it before. If not, we've got a lot of stories we'll do here on House as well. Alright, before we get into it, I want to share with you guys one of the biggest things that we had is, we had a lot of people who were like, hey, I'm going to be a good actor. And we had a lot of people who were like, hey, I'm going to be a good actor.
Starting point is 00:08:16 And we had a lot of people who were like, hey, I'm going to be a good actor. And we had a lot of people who were like, hey, I'm going to be a good actor. And we had a lot of people who were like, hey, I'm going to be a good actor. And we had a lot of people who were like, hey, I'm going to be a good actor. And we had a lot of people who were like, hey, I'm going to be a good actor. And we had a lot of people who were like, hey, I'm going to be a good actor. And we had a lot of people who were like, hey, I'm going to be a good actor. And we had a lot of people who were like, hey, I'm going to be a good actor.
Starting point is 00:08:24 And we had a lot of people who were like, hey, I'm going to be a good actor. And we had a lot of stores we'll do here in-house as well. All right. Before we get into it, I want to share with you guys one of the biggest things that we had is a lot of people were saying, well, Pat, some of the stuff that I have, I can't wear it to the gym. Can we get them by attainment gym gear? And we finally got it and our model that we hired is kind of a big deal. We are this good-looking Assyrian guy who happens to be single with one of our friends here, Natalia. Rob, can you show us the new gear we have with Valuetainment merch for those that go
Starting point is 00:08:51 to the gym and workout? Go for it, Rob. Go to VTmerch.com, place your order, get your gear, go to the gym, support the future looks bright and anybody that places an order, you get a I love VT keychain being sent your way. Okay, so let's get right into the podcast. Rob, for whatever reason, I want to kind of start off with a different story here today if we can. I think we start off with this story about Trump and Putin. So if you have the clip of Trump not being happy with Putin, calling him crazy, I'll read the story here and then we'll get into it.
Starting point is 00:09:53 So Trump says he's not happy with Putin after massive Ukraine strike. Now you've got to keep in mind, the President has been negotiating hardcore with Putin to get things done there, but he's not listening and President Trump expressed strong disapproval of Vladimir Putin actions, stating that at Morristown Municipal Airport, and here's what he had to say. Go for it, Rob. I'll give you an update. I'm not happy with what Putin's doing.
Starting point is 00:10:18 He's killing a lot of people and I don't know what the hell happened to Putin. I've known him a long time. Always gotten along with him. But he's sending rockets into cities and killing people, and I don't like it at all. Okay? We're in the middle of talking, and he's shooting rockets into Kiev and other cities. I don't like it at all.
Starting point is 00:10:38 Mr. President, what do you want to do about that? I'm surprised. I'm very surprised. We'll see what we're going to do. What am I going to tell you? You're the fake twos, aren't you? You're totally fake. Any other questions? I don't like what Putin is doing, not even a little bit. He's killing people. And something happened to this guy and I don't like it. Tom, your thoughts on this.
Starting point is 00:10:59 Well, the president's being very clear here. Absolutely clear. But you know what? He doesn't negotiate with the media in front of the media, nor does he give the media anything other than what he wants them to run with. And what I think was happening behind closed doors is he really thought two weekends ago that he had Putin and he had Zelensky kind of walk into a bridge.
Starting point is 00:11:20 And they were walking on a bridge together, not to blow it up, not to jump off, but a bridge of understanding and kind of a bridge of solution. And all of a sudden, you've got additional rockets going off that multiple sources have confirmed, and worse, they were hitting civilian areas, not military targets.
Starting point is 00:11:35 And so you can kind of see the ire in the president's voice there about, you're hitting, you're killing people, you're launching these rockets, and he named one of the small cities there. And so I think he's very frustrated with that. And on the other side, you've also heard him be equally frustrated with Zelensky. And he was saying, Zelensky's been saying some things and he better knock it off and he better, and he, there was a warning to Zelensky
Starting point is 00:11:58 versus a statement to Putin. That's what I heard. The statement to Putin was, I don't like it at all. To Zelensky it was, he better knock off these things he's saying and he better knock it off soon. That's a different tone to both men, even though Trump is in the middle, thought he had a bridge, it sounded like two weeks ago, and is very frustrated at this moment. Adam, before I come to you, turn off the TV behind you. Vinny, what are your thoughts on this? Well, I think, Pat, this goes to show, like, I remember all the years that we had to hear what Trump is Putin's puppet and Putin's Putin's puppet would never ever talk like that. He is pissed off because he had them both at the negotiating table, okay? This war did not start under him. He's trying to clean up the mess from the other previous administration. I'm not ever
Starting point is 00:12:39 going to say Biden administration ever again, Pat, because it had nothing to do with Joe Biden. This is all because of their fault. Joe Biden said out of his mouth, he said, you know what, if Russia invades Ukraine, if it's a minor incursion, it's all good. He invited them to go do it, and now he's cleaning up a mess, and Putin, I'm telling you right now, Putin is not going to budge, especially with NATO trying to creep in,
Starting point is 00:13:00 which they promised them. Remember, who was this, Tom, who wasn't that said, niet means niet, not going in at all all and this is just a direct result because Bozilinski is acting like a little spoiled little brat that they freaking created and Pouin is a boss that they pushed to the limit and this is what we get because of it out of your thoughts so first can you hear me okay I can't yeah okay great um I think you know Vinny as much as I love you and respect you, you couldn't be further off from what is happening here. The reason I say that is this. Trump is realizing in real time that Putin is the problem. Putin is the bad guy. Putin is the autocratic thug that cannot be controlled. As much as Zelensky is annoying and feminine and taking our money,
Starting point is 00:13:50 at least he's an ally. In my opinion, Putin's looking at the situation and saying the following, Oh, you thought you were going to end this in day one? Really, Mr. President? You thought you were going to come in and just dictate what the New World Order was going to be. Really Mr. President, well let me show you how I operate. I've been running Russia for 25 years. What you say is irrelevant to me and in my opinion, Putin is doing this just to piss off Donald Trump. So we're gonna see where this relationship goes. I like what you're saying. I like what you're saying. I'm gonna give you a twist to it.
Starting point is 00:14:25 Let me give you guys a twist. Here's what I'd love to see. And I would love to see Trump go so hard on Putin and to watch Democrats the next day become Putin fans and hate Ukraine. I mean, these guys are so, I guarantee you, if Trump all of a sudden went hardcore on Putin and said, he's a this, he's a dictator, he's a this, overnight you would see the dams sitting there, oh my God, this is not fair, what he's doing. It would be the 80-20 split and they would take the other side on what's going on there.
Starting point is 00:14:54 But the reality of it is, you know what Putin is saying? He's his own guy. And it's showing that when it comes down to this negotiation with these two guys, it's a lot harder than he thought it was going to be. Whether this is going to get done or not, who knows whether it's going to get done. They're all playing power games right now and everybody wants something in the deals and someone's not happy. Sometimes when you go through this kind of stuff, it happens in business all the time
Starting point is 00:15:18 where some offer was made, then you flip, then you lose the guy, then you want the guy to come back and negotiate with you but you lost trust with him because now you haven't kept your word on three different instances. The guy doesn't trust you moving forward. It could be on anything that a company is doing. It could be a bonus you were paying. It could be anything that you're doing. Like, listen, I just don't trust what this guy's going to be doing because this is not
Starting point is 00:15:37 becoming a track record. So if behind closed doors, promises were made on deals that are not being kept, someone is not happy. If then, Putin thinks that a side deal is happening with Zelensky that he's not aware of, that now Trump is going and siding with him, Putin's going to sit there and say, listen, I'm not in a hurry to do any deals with you. I'm going to keep going as far as I'm going to be going. If you're now siding with that go over a deal you were doing with me.
Starting point is 00:16:04 Because at this point, the minerals deals he wanted from Zelensky is what? It's done. They got it in place. But he hasn't gotten Putin to slow down with the fight so that may take a minute as they're going through it. It doesn't seem like Putin is going to be listening.

Sky News reporting on the Kremlin calling Trump emotionally overloaded. Really go for it, play the clip.
Starting point is 00:16:55 From the Kremlin now, this is being brought to us by the Reuters news agency, responding to their remarks made by Donald Trump regarding Vladimir Putin. And the Kremlin says there is some emotional overload at this crucial moment. That is the line being brought to us, quoting the Kremlin, saying, though, that despite Donald Trump saying that Vladimir Putin has gone, I quote, absolutely crazy.
Starting point is 00:17:23 The Kremlin saying we are grateful to Trump for assistance in launching the Ukraine peace negotiations and that Russia, it says, have taken decisions necessary for the security of Russia and that it claims that the strikes on Ukraine were on military targets. Why are they showing an old clip of them having John Bolton?
Starting point is 00:17:45 There's Sky News has shown this thing. Very interesting to show clip from back in the days. And Mnuchin. Yeah, Mnuchin and Ivanka and Jared and a lot of these guys that are not showing the new regime that's there. All in all, you know, Putin's going to say all that stuff to try to get under his skin. This is a clip from 2019. But this seems to be a little bit of a more difficult task for him than it seemed like while he was campaigned.
Starting point is 00:18:07 But who's fault? And Adam, I respect you for having your opinion, but at the end of the day, none of this happens if it wasn't for the last administration. Pouin wasn't doing anything. He was at bay. He was chilling. Zero. Now it's a shit storm because you propped up one guy, they made all of us think the other guy was Satan as if we're innocent as a country as well. I don't buy it, bro. I don't buy it at all. And I think it's, we created two freaking monsters and then by the way, Zelinsky, he's our ally.
Starting point is 00:18:37 What has he done for us? I don't know, I'm just very curious. I know Pat wants to go to the next story. What is Ukraine doing for us? How is Ukraine helping the United States of America? How are they allied? Besides sucking us dry for all of our money, taking advantage of our old administration
Starting point is 00:18:52 with the son and the dad and all those deals. I don't see any positive coming out of Ukraine. Can you give me one except hot girls? No, I'm being dead serious. Don't ever downplay that. That should be clear on that. I'm just saying. Everything you said was correct, you know, as far as if we want to play Monday morning
Starting point is 00:19:11 quarterback of why we got here. That's great. You're right. But how the hell does that help us end the war? It could have been prevented. Sure. If Trump was the president, none of this would have happened. The red line.
Starting point is 00:19:23 Sure. But that doesn't help us end the war now and you are right like Ukraine up until now was not an ally the United States. They're not a member of NATO you out you are right about them but The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Let's never forget that We're learning in real time that Russia, as much as certain people want to twist it, the Tucker Carlson's of the world, how they want to be sycophants to Putin's Russia, they are not our ally, the Cold War is still not over, and Putin
Starting point is 00:19:57 is a legacy of the Cold War, and we're learning in real time how this guy wants to operate. That's my opinion. All right. Let's go to the next story here, guys. Next story I want to go to is a story, two stories having to do with Tim Cook. So one of them is having to do with tariffs. The other one is about him and the governor of Texas. Two different things, but both very, very interesting.
Starting point is 00:20:21 I'll start off with the first one. Rob, I don't know if we have a clip on this one or not. We do. Okay, so let's go through the first one. So Trump-Apple relationship devolves with threats. This is the hill. President Trump threatened a 25% tariff on Apple products if the company does not shift more manufacturers to the U.S., stating, �I have long ago informed Tim Cook of Apple
Starting point is 00:20:42 that I expect their iPhones that will be sold in the U.S. will be manufactured and built in the U.S. as well. And later told reporters the iPhone, if they're going to sell it in America, I want it to be built in the U.S. This marks a shift from the cordial relationship during Trump's first term when Apple secured tariffs exemption as Cook now faces pressure despite a $500 billion U.S. investment pledge, including a new Texas factory. The tariff threat, part of Trump's broader push to reshore manufacturing, follows Apple's supplier, Foxconn, $1.5 billion investment in India, prompting Trump to say, I said to
Starting point is 00:21:18 him, Tim, you are my friend. I don't want you to build in India. Rob, is this the clip? Yes. Go for it, Rob. Mr. President, on Apple, you said this morning that if they don't make their iPhones in the US, you're going to hit them with a 25% tariff. Do you have the power to tariff one single company?
Starting point is 00:21:36 And why would you want to hurt an American company in that way? It would be more. It would be also Samsung and anybody that makes that product, otherwise it wouldn't be fair. So anybody that makes that product, and that'll start on, I guess, the end of June, it'll come out, I think we have that appropriately done by the end of June. So if they make that product. Now again, when they build their plant here, there's no tariff. So they're going to be building plants here.
Starting point is 00:22:02 But I had an understanding with Tim that he wouldn't be doing this He said he's going to India to build plants. I said that's okay to go to India, but you're not gonna sell into here without tariffs and That's the way it is. Yeah Tom your thoughts so Basically it goes back to the this is the China chess game number one. He loves the fact that India is So this is the China chess game. Number one, he loves the fact that India is flanking China with trade deals. He loves that. And he loves that Tim Cook and Apple
Starting point is 00:22:35 have been moving for several years in this direction. That's a good thing. The thing that President Trump is also pointing out is like, look, I want you to onshore or near shore your manufacturing. And even if you have automated manufacturing, and there's a few people that work there, those are jobs working there. And it's also a whole bunch of jobs to build those buildings and those factories.
Starting point is 00:22:59 And that's what Trump wants. Trump wants jobs in the US. He wants US economy to jobs in the US. He wants US economy to get the benefit first. So he doesn't mind the flanking, but he doesn't want Apple to stop there. There's your headline. I want you to move out of China. I just don't want you to merely go next door to India and not bring any benefits to American shore. That's what the discussion is
Starting point is 00:23:23 about. And I support the president. I think he's absolutely right. What percentage does he have to move to the states for him to be happy with it? Because he didn't say 100 percent, right? He says a portion. What is a portion? Do you think they've had that specific conversation to say, I need 20 percent to be made here? Yeah, I don't know if it's a percent or it's like, look, take me through your products that, you know, that you could make here without crushing the cost for the consumer. What could you do?
Starting point is 00:23:48 Could you do ear pods here? What could you be making here onshore so that there'd be a benefit to the American consumer in terms of jobs, benefit to the American economy, and you're not gonna crush the price? I think that's the conversation. Trump does deals. So I think that's the discussion with Tim does deals. So I think that's the discussion
Starting point is 00:24:05 with Tim, Tim, come on, you know, what can you put on shore? What can you do that won't crush your economics and also make it hard for the consumer? Because he even said when the reporter followed up, well, what about Samsung? No, no, no, it'll apply to all of them. Otherwise, that wouldn't be fair. You heard him say that. So he's he's saying openly there, hey, Tim, I'm not going to disadvantage you. I'm going to press the button for everybody. I think it's a discussion of what can be brought on. But if I had to throw a dart at the wall, you know, I think he's going to look at it
Starting point is 00:24:36 and say, OK, what percent of what percent of your devices are sold to Americans? And I think he's going to want to put them on a path toward that number. Adam, your thoughts. prices are sold to Americans. And I think he's going to want to put them on a path toward that number. Adam, your thoughts. So get ready for your iPhone to cost more money. My American friends, you ever gone to the mall? You ever seen the at the Apple store, just people lining up for hours, if not days for the latest iPhone product? Have you seen this ever? Of course. So I see it all the time. I'm like, I'm still I think operating on an iPhone product. Have you seen this ever? Of course.
Starting point is 00:25:05 So I see it all the time. I'm like, I'm still, I think operating on an iPhone 14. I don't even know what version we're on these days, but two things are gonna happen. First, let's get this out of China into India. I totally understand why Trump wants it made in the USA, but understand that as an American, when you see made in the USA,
Starting point is 00:25:26 you know what's gonna happen next? Get ready to pay a premium. Because if iPhones cost a thousand bucks and you're talking 25% tariffs, your iPhone is now gonna cost 1,250 bucks. And the American consumer is gonna pay the price for being made in America. Now, if you love America, get ready to pay a little bit more and that's fine. But most Americans
Starting point is 00:25:49 are paycheck to paycheck. Most Americans feel they deserve the latest, the greatest, the best, but you're gonna have to pay a little bit more for that. Well guess what, Adam and I'm happy that you have the 14 because guess what, if we want to make America great again and we do want to bring jobs back here Tommy, guess what, if you have the 14 you don, and we do want to bring jobs back here Tommy guess what? If you have the 14 you don't need the 17 or the 18 This is a freaking batten down the hatches type of moment and I get and I love that attitude I'm saying I love that point of view is like we want the next like I don't I hate this phone now
Starting point is 00:26:17 And it's almost as if number one Apple got in trouble pat They were sending that that thing that made the phone and the battery die quicker They got in trouble for that shit because they want you to buy the new phone. You don't need the brand new phone every single year. Who the hell do you think you are? If you can't afford it, calm your ass down, let America adjust and then we move on from there. That's my attitude.
Starting point is 00:26:37 They're talking about 60 million new phones. If they bring and build a fully manufactured phone in America, it's roughly $3,500. It's $3,500. It's $3,500. If you want to buy the brand new one. Fully manufactured iPhone built in America, it's $3,500. So to me, if that comes here, companies are making more profits. You're creating more jobs.
Starting point is 00:27:00 Salaries are going up, no problem. You can afford it. But if it's not, it's a big price. So what happens then? Then Apple sits on a lot of phones that are not moving. Apple knows if they go to India, then Apple's going to do whatever they can to get a new president to come in because a new president hopefully is going to be in a different way with phones being made.
Starting point is 00:27:18 Who knows what's going to happen? So there is the pressures on free enterprise when you see things like this happen. A story came out about the fact that shipping. So there is the pressures on free enterprise when you see things like this happen. The story came out about the fact that shipping, I don't know what page that shipping story is on Rob, but there's a story about shipping. That prices for shipping. Page seven. Say that again?
Starting point is 00:27:34 Page seven. Page seven, yeah. There's a story about, and it has nothing to do with the phones, I'll come back to it, shipping costs set to double as companies rush to import goods before China-U.S. trade ends. So for me, I would love for those things to be built here, but you just have to know. The prices are going to go up. So major shipping carriers like Hapag-Lloyd plan to raise their rates for a 40-foot container
Starting point is 00:27:55 from China to the West Coast to $6,500, Vinnie, from $3,500. These containers used to only cost you $3,500, now it's $6,500. And East Coast ports to $7,500 instead of $4,500. These continues used to only cost you $3,500, now it's $65. And East Coast ports to $7,500 instead of $4,500. For West Coast, it's an 80%, 90% increase. For East Coast, it's roughly a 70% increase. That's a massive increase of what they're doing. That's not a joke. As of June 1st, as companies rush to import goods, before May 12th, China's U.S. trade truce expires, with Jay Forman of Basic Fund stating, the increase will squeeze profit margins and it will result in higher prices
Starting point is 00:28:31 for consumers. Another $8,500 container is expected to be by June 15th, according to Journal of Commerce. So gradually they're raising the rates, going a little bit higher, a little bit higher, and this leads me to, Rob, if you can go to the story with the money market. There's a tweet I put up there from Shomat, right there, if you can show this. Watch this. So, bar chart, Tom, if you take a look at this, a staggering $7.24 trillion is now sitting
Starting point is 00:28:57 in money markets. Can you just click on the, this is an all-time high. Vinny, you know what this is? You know what a money market is? So money market is kind of like, imagine you have a checking account. You make no interest on it. Then say you've got a saving account. Let's say you make half a percent on it.
Starting point is 00:29:11 Barely. Then let's say you've got a CD today. I don't know what a CD pays today, Rob. If you can pull it up, what does a CD pay today at a bank? Let's say it's 2%. Yeah, one year, two year, five year, Rob. Whatever the number is, it tells you. Say it's anywhere between 1% to 3%.
Starting point is 00:29:24 I'm just making up numbers right now. 4.50? The best CDs are paying 4.50, 4%. Okay, great. A six month is paying 3.85. They got a 4%. So a money market today, what is the rate of return in the best money market account. You can literally put your money in a money market today, no matter what the stock market does. Your money market as of today, at any bank you choose, many of them, Discover Bank, 3.5%, all the way up to 4.4%, okay? Bank Creative Intelligence, it's between 4% to 4.5%.
Starting point is 00:30:04 So let's just say a person's got a million dollars. Let's say 10 million dollars. You put 10 million dollars in a money market, what are you making per year? 4%? 4.5%. What's 4.5% on 10 million? $450,000 per year. I was going to say it. If a person is making $450,000 a year, you know what the money market was four years ago? Nothing. What was money market rates, money market rates in 2019? Let me just find out what it was in 2019. It was nothing. It was.25.
Starting point is 00:30:32 Nothing. In 2019 it was.01. The point is it's gone up. It's rarely this high. So when you're seeing that much, okay, Rob, go back to the money market accounts where it's at. Look at this here. We have $7.2 trillion. Is it trillion?
Starting point is 00:30:49 I think it is trillion. $7.2 trillion right now, Vinny, that's sitting in money market. That's cash. Do you know what that sign is of? Because the president wants that money to be where? If I believe in the future of S&P 500, where would that money be? In the stock market. If it's in the stock market, that means I'm optimistic.
Starting point is 00:31:11 If it's in the money market, I'm saying, dude, I don't know what's going to happen to the stock. I want to make sure my money is chilling. I'm just going to be chilling. So even with all the instability that's going on, if my prediction in the next six to 18 months, that's going to drop to $5.5 trillion to $6.2 trillion because I think people are going to go to the market. Do you see how that looks like from 2008?
Starting point is 00:31:29 How all of a sudden it dropped. No look at the drop. What is the drop? The drop is 2008. Go a little bit higher, that's five. Right there, you see eight. Boom, all of a sudden it drops, which means people are going into the market. Right, I'm going to put some money in the market and I'm going to go and then boom,
Starting point is 00:31:44 it spikes up again? I'm going to put some money in the market and I'm going to go in there and boom, it spikes up again. I'm nervous. So we haven't seen a drop off since 2018, 2019 in the market. We haven't seen it. So there's a concern here what that could look like. Tom, your thoughts on this chart. Well, this is a great chart, Pat. There's two spikes.
Starting point is 00:31:58 You see the spike we have right now, which is like the tariff spike, and then you have the spike, then there's a little flatness there where it's like a little jiggly. And then you see that spike that's there, Vinnie, 2020, 2021, see that big spike right there? You know what that was? COVID. Oh my God, what's happening?
Starting point is 00:32:15 I'm scared and I put out of the market and I put my money in a money market. And then we come out of COVID, it levels for a bit. Now here come the tariffs. Oh my God, I'm scared. What do I do I pull out and I put my money in a money market but take a look at what's happening the S&P is back to 5850 we had a big bounce yesterday because uh Trump said well you know what I you know what maybe I'll
Starting point is 00:32:35 wait another 30 days 60 days 90 days before full impact of tariffs the market love that. So here we are 5900 again, by the way, 6150 is basically the all time high under since November 4th when what do you think? 7.2 trillion in money markets. Here's what I think. The minute those things feel confident and they go out, start demanding stock, the the indexes are going to go up. But what it says is that people are uncertain and a little bit scared at the moment. That's what it shows. It shows uncertainty and fear.
Starting point is 00:33:09 And the best thing when you're uncertain and fear is you flee to things like gold and cash when interest rates are good, with interest rates being the key there. Let me go to the next story here. Tim Cook, call Texas governor to stop online child safety legislation. Whoa. Why would Tim Cook call to stop online child safety legislation? This is a Wall Street Journal story. Apple
Starting point is 00:33:35 CEO Tim Cook personally called Texas Governor Abbott to request changes or a veto of a child safety bill requiring app stores to verify users' ages, with an Apple spokesman stating if enacted, Apple marketplaces will be required to collect and keep sensitive personal identity information for every Texan who wants to download an app, even if it's an app that simply provides weather updates or sports scores. The bill passed would veto proof. Majorities would make Texas the largest state to adopt such an App Store accountability law, potentially increasing costs for Apple and Google.
Starting point is 00:34:09 The Texas legislation mandates that App Stores verify device owners' ages, linking miners' accounts to parents for an App approval, which supporter Senator Angela Paxton said help parents understand what their children are really interacting with and give them tools to help them make a good parenting decision. Tom, your thoughts on this? Tom Cook Well, Tim Cook has had a busy week. He's working hard and he's got things going on. There's some things in here that America needs to think about.
Starting point is 00:34:39 Think about this. If you want to operate a liquor store in the state of Texas, actually in the state of anywhere, Vinny, you want to operate a liquor store in the state of Texas actually in the state of anywhere, right? Vinny you want to operate a liquor store You have to check IDs everybody in there, right and you have to get yourself a liquor license We have an accent like I want to sell the no no no don't do that. I'll say just go I want to get in the carrier, but you want to do it you want to You you get yourself a license in some state and you start you operate a liquor store Okay
Starting point is 00:35:04 And you have to check IDs for everyone that doesn't look 30 and have those stickers that are up by the register If you don't look 30, we're gonna card you don't get pissed off. Yeah, okay And guess what when you swipe their credit card, you're keeping sensitive information. You have their name You've got date of birth. You've got all kinds of things and you've got a credit card record. So now all they're saying is hey Apple if you want to operate in the state of things and you've got a credit card record. So now all they're saying is, hey, Apple, if you wanna operate in the state of Texas and when kids are downloading apps like games where they can actually, they wanna buy, you know,
Starting point is 00:35:35 additional levels and things in the games or the games or things like Grand Theft Auto, they're saying, hey, guess what? You gotta link the kid's account to your account because parents are also asking wait a minute I want to know what's on Instagram and Facebook I know that certain things at Grand Theft Auto are gonna get rated higher and I have to allow I have to Allow my kid and let's say get around me to get that app and Tim Cook's being told by says listen
Starting point is 00:36:02 Want to operate a gun store want to operate? You know liquor store you want to operate a gun store, want to operate a liquor store, you want to operate a supermarket that sells beer, you got to check IDs, you have to do like this. Guess what, we're asking you to check, and we're asking you to link, because there's another thing hiding an iceberg below the surface that Apple doesn't want to talk about
Starting point is 00:36:17 and Metta doesn't want to talk about. And the fact is, all these statistics on kids and the distraction and what's happening in school when they're on social media during class What's happening to the minds and young girls? We don't need to do it now, but there's a ton of data out on young girls that were Suffering depression hurting themselves or doing things online. They shouldn't be directly attributed to social Media and social media platforms that were actively out there trying to exploit them.
Starting point is 00:36:46 And so now Texas has said, we've had enough. Apple, you are the store. And if you want to sell these things in your store to Texans, you got to check. This is what we want you to do. And they said, well, it's going to cost us a lot of money. And says, okay, well, let me let me check checking my notes. Yeah, you're the largest, most valuable company in the world. I think you got some walking around money that you can handle putting these things in place and do development. You're a software developer.
Starting point is 00:37:10 Develop things to make it easier. Adam, your thoughts. Well, I wanna kick this back to you, PBD, because this seems like something that parents need to be fully aware of, whether they're in Texas or not. This past weekend, I was at one of my best friends, son's bar mitzvah, 13 years old. I took my nephew Rory who's 12.
Starting point is 00:37:34 So all my friends, their kids are 10, 11, 12, 13, in this age bracket, and they all freaking have phones. And I remember being at quinceañeras and birthdays and bar mitzvahs 100 years ago when I was that age. And you were so fully in the moment and so fully present. And now everyone's on a phone. So what I want to understand is, as a parent, how do you navigate stuff like that these days?
Starting point is 00:38:00 Because for me, it's very weird seeing kids 13 years old, 12 years old just face down in their phone not living their life. I know you've been very clear about how you handle this, but what's your advice on the general parenting with phones out there? Well, I mean look, what Apple is trying to do, we had Laila Mikkelwait on and Pornhub owner, Rob Ifiu, remember when we had the Pornhub owner on and I'm asking him, saying, so why aren't you just checking IDs for people that go on Pornhub?
Starting point is 00:38:31 No, we can't do that. Why? Is it because 90% of traffic would drop because nobody wants their IDs to be checked? Imagine you're going on a porn website, okay, post your picture of your ID. Hell no. You know what I'm saying? No, no, you don't want to. The person's going to be like, I don't
Starting point is 00:38:45 want to be documented. I said, well, you would lose 90 to 95% of your traffic. No, we wouldn't. I guarantee you, you would. So, Laila Mikkelweg pursues this and goes as far as doing this and I think she was one of the ones that caused this Senate bill 2420 to be taking place, that governor's signature aiming to require app stores to providers like Apple and Google to verify users. Let me tell you, this is massive for a lot of people in the porn industry that if this legislation goes through in Texas, guess who does it next? All the other red states. They're going to say, we want the same exact thing.
Starting point is 00:39:20 When it comes onto phones, Dylan's over here. So as a kid, your kids are going to ask you for the phone for a few different reasons. Let's go through them. One of them is what? Is video games. What's the other thing? Is listening to music. What's the other thing?
Starting point is 00:39:35 Texting their friends. So remember, you have three things. Well, they can't buy if they don't have your credit card. Amazon. Yeah, but if you don't give them a logged in account that they can't log in and just go buy stuff, so you got what? You got texting, you got music, you got video games. Or YouTube if they're watching videos and they're watching movies and stuff like that.
Starting point is 00:39:52 Netflix, right? So as a parent, if you want them to, like we're on a flight here, and on the flight, you know, the kids watch movies in the, you know, on the seat. You can see it. So that at least gives you that. Hey, I want to listen to some music. You hand a phone to him. He's listening to music.
Starting point is 00:40:08 But he's listening to music and he's texting. Or she's texting. So, okay, now I'm texting. Do you want that level of accessibility at that young age to be texting somebody nonstop? I don't. So now, phones and iPads, parents have to be very much because kids can tell you, I just want to listen to some music, but they're really texting somebody and not playing video games. I'm definitely not for, yesterday we went to dinner and we had a few people that are
Starting point is 00:40:30 not accustomed to being with dinner with us and the phone was sitting on the table. And it's driving me nuts the entire time. You know why? Because I'm like, my kids are not going to come and say, well if they can have a phone on the table, why do you not? And I'm like, no, everybody. So you know how we go to summertime, we go vacation together or Christmas or whatever we do, what happens? All phones are off the table. Tom,
Starting point is 00:40:48 I, Vinny, we literally grab our phones. I know this sounds weird. And we fully put it on a different table. And we don't even look at the phone for two hours. And what does it make us do? We're talking. We're talking. We're talking. We're talking. We're talking. Conversation. I think we need to go more and more in that direction, but this is to the average person that's reading the story, they're like, I don't even know why they're covering the story. To the average person, trust me, it may not be a big deal to you, but to somebody that's in business that knows what's about to happen with Apple, there is a reason why Tim Cook
Starting point is 00:41:20 picked up the call and called the governor, not saying one of his C-suite executives to call. This could be massive for Apple and very expensive across the board. They do not want this. Let me get to the next story here. Next story here. Alright, so the only reason I'm bringing this up is because how a small little story elevated into this crazy story that we got here today.
Starting point is 00:41:40 So you know, Caitlin Clark is playing a game. And there's this issue with her and Angel Reese. There's this, Caitlin Clark pushes one of the teammates of Caitlin Clark, I'm sorry, Angel Reese pushes one of the teammates of Caitlin Clark. Caitlin Clark fouls Angel Reese. Angel Reese does one of these Lebron flops and falls on the ground, I mean she learned it from Lebron, falls to the ground. And the next thing you know, the mark is like, oh my God, she's protected also because she's white and all this other stuff and Angel Reese comes out and she's saying all
Starting point is 00:42:09 these things and then Jameel Hill comes out, Rob, I don't know if you have this clip or not, Jameel Hill comes out and says Angel Reese at the end of her career is going to end up being, calls Angel Reese, end of career will be known as Michael Jordan. Alright, so for some of you guys that are watching this. Unbelievable. Have you seen this thing? So Jamil Hill, Rob, if you can find this thing, she says Angel Reese will end up being Michael Jordan in the end of her career.
Starting point is 00:42:38 Alright, we'll find this. Yes, I just typed it up, asked the question. Yes, Jamil Hill has publicly expert herb Leif and Angel Rees has the potential to become the Michael Jordan of WNBA in a recent statement he'll place ahead of a Caitlin Clark suggesting that Rees could be viewed as the league's defining superstar like a Michael Jordan. Is that the one, Rob? If you can… I'm looking for the clip.
Starting point is 00:43:02 Yeah, okay. Anyway, so then outside of that, RG3 comes out and says, man, you know, Caitlin Clark is a superstar and she's big in their life and all this stuff. Ryan Clark, out of nowhere, Ryan Clark, who's a commentator, out of nowhere comes out and he says, well, what does RG3 know anything about this? RG3, who was a former quarterback, a great rookie quarterback. Washington. Went to Marshall.
Starting point is 00:43:29 Went to Marshall. He says, what would RG3 know, who's a black man by the way, he says, what would RG3 know about this? He's married to a white woman. So stupid. And they're like, wait, what did you say? Ryan Clark says RG3 is married to a white woman. What would he know about all this stuff that's
Starting point is 00:43:45 taking place? He actually said those words. Are you kidding me? I swear to you I haven't heard that. So okay Rob, can you find this clip where Ryan Clark says how would he know he's married to a white girl? Is that the clip Rob? Yes sir. Okay play this clip, watch this Vinny. We moved in to being able to read the expressions of a person No, they're a little bit because they know their character know their perspective But he does understand hate because I think he also understands the hate of self when you look at the play which is all we can speak to as Professionals all we can speak to as analysts Angel Reese pushed one of of her teammates, Caitlin Clark had a hard foul, which is part of basketball.
Starting point is 00:44:27 I feel like it was assessed correctly. And Angel Reese's reaction is the sort of reaction you get in a situation when you feel like you took an intentionally hard foul. That's competitiveness, that's rivalry, that's what I hate. And so now though, when RG3 jumps on to the hate train or to the angry train and now follows along with what we saw from Keith Oberman, what we saw from Dave Portnoy as they poured on to Angel Reese to make her the villain in Caitlin Clark's heroic
Starting point is 00:44:58 or hero story. The one thing we know about RG3 is he's not having conversations at his home about what black women have to endure in this country, about what young black women and athletes like Angel Reese have had to deal with being on the opposite side of Caitlin Clark's rise and ascension into stardom. Now when you look at it, I think Angel Wilson is the face of the league. Angel Wilson. Who is the face of the league? He said Angel Reese. Who did he say is the face of the league. Who is the face of the league? He said Angel Reese. Who did he say is the face of the league? Asia Wilson.
Starting point is 00:45:30 Okay, you can pause that. RG3 responds back and says, what is that all about? To Ryan Clark's credit, he apologizes about this. Then Brittany Griner is playing a game, and this is what Brittany Griner calls, I was not going to comment on any of this stuff until this took place, watch what she says, the entire internet has reacted to this, here's Brittany Griner, they're playing against the Indiana fever and look what she's saying. Go ahead Rob. Well the ticky-tack-thous that we were talking about earlier today.
Starting point is 00:46:03 That pretty much sounds like trash effing white girl. Let's just be honest. So the whole market reacts to this with Britney Grindle, right? And then the other quote, Rob, then I'm going to wrap this up and then I'm going to go to Adam. Put the quote of Britney Grindle, what she said about the NBA. This is so funny how all this stuff works out, right? She says, this is from Britney, every time we play her there's this commotion, like this
Starting point is 00:46:27 loud rumbling from the stands. Turns out it's people, thousands of them, just sitting there watching on purpose. It's very disruptive. It's called a freaking game that they pay you money to play. Don't play the game. It's very disruptive. It continues, Brittany Grant on Voice of Frustration in recent interview, claimed that Caitlin Clark is ruining what used to make the WNBA great.
Starting point is 00:46:49 Wait for this. WNBA games used to be a chill, quiet place. You could bring your laptop and relax, maybe even get a little work done. But now, it's like there's a large gathering of people watching us from the stands, some of them are yelling crazy shit about what they're seeing, putting unfair pressure on us to score like we're there for their entertainment. And that's pretty gross. Rob, can you verify that this is what she said on the mom and pop WNBA model? That she's sick of the fact that, and then she says, the whole thing is toxic.
Starting point is 00:47:27 I saw a guy with his daughter in the crowd, both of them yelling, couldn't hear what they were saying exactly, but it was either about my performance or some light racism, definitely one of the two. Give me a flip and break. Can I say something about that? Yeah, of course. This is incredible. Yeah, first of all, I mean, and Adam, I know Adam, you definitely have something to say,
Starting point is 00:47:44 but and I know Adam, I'm going to piggyback off of Adam because Adam's been saying this for a while that this is why the end the WNBA is Never ever ever going to work and never make money And this is exactly what a Caitlin Clark gets for bending the knee Do you guys remember when she said when we lost all respect for what she said? I want to say I've earned every single thing but as a white person there is privilege and The more we can elevate black woman. This is going to be a beautiful thing That's when it was all over and angel Reese and Brittany Griner They walk around like the league owes them something even Ryan Clark's attitude as if bro
Starting point is 00:48:20 Where's the victimhood? These are freaking millionaires? Like what are you talking about? It's attitude, it's no humility, just entitlement, and that's not confidence, it's arrogance with receipts. Okay, if you want fans, if you want your league to grow, act like a professional, okay? The league already started underwater and instead of fixing it, they're just poking more holes in the boat. And think about it, Brittany Griner talking all that trash, we traded the merchant of death for your ass ass and you're out there talking shit and saying
Starting point is 00:48:48 racist shit on the freaking sideline and it's disgusting. Okay, that's why nobody watches it and it'll lose money. No, they're watching it. No, no, the point is Vinny, if Kaitlyn Clark goes and is playing, they're watching it. Guess what was just announced yesterday? What? Kaitlyn Clark's injured. She'll be out for two weeks.
Starting point is 00:49:05 Good. Let's see what happens to viewership. Good. Good. Let's see what happens to viewership. But do you think, and I know Adam's going to go, but do you think Kaitlyn Clark on her own is going to save this thing? I, there's no way, especially with what she said and how they're all going to eat her
Starting point is 00:49:20 alive because she's a white girl in a league with predominantly black women and the fact that, by the way, how can you say I'm sitting there and people are yelling? Thousands of people, it's distracting. You're playing basketball in an arena. It doesn't make sense Tom. They're doomed. They're doomed and good for them. Adam, how much money did they lose a year?
Starting point is 00:49:42 All of it. How much? How much? I mean, it's did they lose a year? All of it. How much? How much? I mean, it's not even just a year. Every year. They lost tens of millions of dollars every year. They're like the federal reserter.
Starting point is 00:49:53 Adam, what are your thoughts on this? So I'm not going to do what you think I'm going to do and just trash the WNBA and tell you how horrible of a league it is and what a zombie company it is and how it is just completely toxic feminism with a little bit of racism and completely losing money. I'm not just going to do that. BBD. I'm glad you didn't mention it. Thanks, Adam.
Starting point is 00:50:18 Exactly. I'm also going to tell you that the only reason that we're talking about the WNBA is two reasons. Number one, you know that summer's here and the NBA, the NHL football season is pretty much either ending or beginning because all we have left is Tom's favorite sport, Major League Baseball, or WNBA. And this is the reason they played in the summer because there's nothing else going on. So you know that the WNBA is coming with that. Number two, we started this conversation with Angel Reese is going to be the second coming of who? Michael Jordan. Michael Jordan. Stop it. Okay. Kobe's not Michael Jordan. LeBron's not Michael Jordan.
Starting point is 00:51:07 Harold Minor back in the day was never Michael Jordan. Now- The left-handed Michael Jordan. Exactly. So now some six foot four maybe lesbian or not is the new Michael Jordan. Stop it. Okay, let me do this. The whole reason we're talking about the WNBA is because of Caitlin Clarke. Angel Reese at best is the next Carl Anthony Towns. Shout out to the Knicks. But I will say one last thing. Sports no matter what, is still the last place that DEI does not exist.
Starting point is 00:51:38 There's no way she's Carl Anthony Towns. You know why there's no way issues with Carl Anthony Towns? Carl Anthony Towns shoots 40% from three and he scored 20 points in the fourth quarter the other day. This is an insult to Carl Anthony Towns. Rob, can you pull up the stat that was just pulled up? Watch this here. Rob, I just asked you to Google something. Go all the way to the top.
Starting point is 00:51:59 What did you Google, Rob? Can you tell the audience? You typed in Angel Reese 22.7% lowest field goal percentage in season. Yes, in an ESPN report, shows that Angel Reese has a field goal percentage of 22.7% in a WNBA game, which is significantly lower than our average usual, the lowest percentage reported. This woman in a season, Rob, do me a favor Rob, go to ChadGBT and type in the following. What is the single worst shooting percentage ever in WNBA? What is the single worst shooting percentage ever in WNBA?
Starting point is 00:52:33 You type in ever. Ever in WNBA. What is the worst shooting percentage ever in WNBA? If you can put that ever in WNBA. Watch this, folks. Zoom in a little bit if you could. Watch this. Look what's going to come up.
Starting point is 00:52:46 You ready? This is supposed to be Michael Jordan. The lowest? Angel Reese's performance. Watch this. This is the kicker. Amongst players with more substantial playing time, Angel Reese's performance in 2024 stands out.
Starting point is 00:53:05 She shot 43.8% on attempts within five feet of the basket. Do you know what five feet is, Vinny? If she's 6'4", then the fingertip is 6'6". So these guys are such clowns. You have a shot at getting more eyeballs to your league and all of a sudden you fear because it's Caitlin Clark, a white girl. You know who Caitlin Clark is going to end up being in the weirdest way possible if she makes it?
Starting point is 00:53:33 She's going to be the Jackie Robinson of WNBA. Who was the Jackie Robinson of MLB? He brought blacks to the game. Of course. Okay. Jackie Robinson of the WNBA will be Caitlin Clark if she stays healthy. There's a group of them that would hope for her to be out. Why do you say she's going to be the Jackie Robinson of the WNBA?
Starting point is 00:53:56 Well, because she's not the first white girl, but she's the first white superstar at the levels where she's scoring these, you know, the threes she's shooting. She's like a Steph Curry. She's the first actual superstar at the levels where she's scoring these, you know, the threes she's shooting. She's like a Steph Curry. She's the first actual superstar that people care. When's the last time we watched like college basketball? If I told you, tell me the greatest college basketball female basketball players last 30 years, and you watch, I know her, she's our meat, but you look at some of these names,
Starting point is 00:54:20 you see some of these people on how they do. But Caitlin Clark came out the gates and put up some numbers we've never seen before. Can I give some pushback to that? Of course you can. If you Google who is the greatest WNBA player of all time, I guarantee you Diana Taurasi is going to be at the top of the list. Find that out for me. What's my point? She made her mark in college I think for for, for a new college. Caitlin's been playing for a year and a half, Adam. Of course she's not the greatest of all time.
Starting point is 00:54:50 That's not what I'm asking. What I'm saying is this, nobody gave a crap about Diana Tarassi because she became, she came out pre-feminism, pre, pre this push for making everything about feminism and femininity and pushing women down our throats. Without them pushing Caitlin Clark and them advertising and marketing and putting on TV, nobody cares about the WNBA. Diana Taurasi did the exact same thing
Starting point is 00:55:20 Caitlin Clark is doing. Shoots threes, makes assists, and does her thing. But nobody cared. But now that they're pushing this down our throat, you gotta like the WNBA. You have to watch this, you have to watch this. Now people start caring. Diana Taurasi already did this.
Starting point is 00:55:37 She was the Jackie Robinson, so to speak. But now they're doing this with Caitlin Clark and was it for us supposed to be like, oh my God, I can't wait for more WNBA. No one cares. But they're pushing feminism down our throats. And it's the same, by the way, it's just anything with the words NBA in it, same thing with LeBron James. He's the face, he's anti-cop, he's anti-American, he's pro-China, and how's the NBA doing? How's the NBA doing regular season? Is anybody watching the NBA?
Starting point is 00:56:05 Be honest, this guy used to watch it all the time. I don't even remember the last time you even watched the game. When's the last time you actually saw an actual full NBA game? For me... The Knicks-Indiana series is going good. In this case, in this case, when you look at Torrasi
Starting point is 00:56:19 when she came in, versus Caitlin Clark, a part of what Adam is saying is trying to say that the women empowerment is bigger than it's ever been before and that's why this is going on. I don't know if that's the case, maybe, maybe not, but the reality of it is I've never seen anybody more exciting as a female basketball player than her. It's got nothing to do with skin because Diana Tarassi
Starting point is 00:56:38 is also not black. She's, you know, I don't know what nationality she is. I don't know, I don't know what nationality she is. I don't know. I don't know. I want I don't know if she is We're in Italy. So She's a white Diana Taurasi People thought she was Indian all of a sudden. She turned black I don't know what happened. I thought she was I thought maybe she was Armenian, but apparently she is
Starting point is 00:57:01 Let me see She Arabic or she's something I thought she was Armenian. Who cares? Look, I mean at this point again, we're moving on, but the reality of it is Angel Reese, according to Jamil Hill, is going to be the Michael Jordan of the WNBA, and they lost Caitlin Clark. Let's watch some data to see what the WNBA viewership does the next couple weeks. All right, let's go to the next story.
Starting point is 00:57:22 Next story I want to go to is Jordan Peterson, Rob, if you got this clip. I just want to get your reaction to it. Jordan Peterson, over the last ten years, has gotten billions of views online. He's one of the most watched influencers. He'll put events together. Thousands of people will show up and pay to watch this man speak. He's had a lot of influence over young men, wrote 12 rules for life that sold millions on top of millions of copies, has been very successful, made a lot of money, but they
Starting point is 00:57:48 do this jubilee thing that he sits down with this other young man. And kudos to anybody that goes here because you're being targeted by 20 people that have all been researching to put you in your place and have an opportunity for a video like this that we don't know who you are, and all the eyeballs come and you get a bunch of attention, right? Here's him and Jordan Peterson speaking. Go ahead, Rob, and play the clip. Jordan Peterson speaking. Is that relevant?
Starting point is 00:58:11 Because you go to a Catholic church, don't you? You've attended recently. You're interested in Catholicism, aren't you? Sure. All right. Are you familiar with their doctrines? Somewhat. Okay.
Starting point is 00:58:20 You're familiar. Their doctrines are very deep. How do they regard Mary? Why are you asking me that? Because you're a Christian. You say that. I haven't claimed that. Oh, what is this? Why are you asking me that? Because you're a Christian. You say that. I haven't claimed that. Oh, what is this? Is this Christians versus atheists? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:58:31 You don't know where you are right now. Don't be a smart ass. Well, either you're a Christian or you're not. Because I won't talk to you if you're a smart ass. Either you're a Christian or you're not. Which one is it? I could be either of them, but I don't have to tell you. You could be you. You don't have to tell me. I was under the impression.
Starting point is 00:58:45 I was invited to talk to a Christian. Am I not talking to a Christian? No, you were invited to. I think everyone should look at the title of the YouTube channel. You're probably in the wrong YouTube video. You're really quite something. You are. But you're really quite nothing.
Starting point is 00:58:59 Right. You're not a Christian. I'm done with him. What do you think I mean I mean if I'm being real I'm really disappointed we got a guy who's helped millions To see value and order discipline family tradition And then you pull back on the one foundation that you come from okay He's lectured on biblical stories like he's Moses and then the guy just asked you are you a Christian? There's I don't care Catholic Protestant are you a Christian because you've been claiming and you're preaching it that
Starting point is 00:59:34 you are. Why have that moment? What are you scared of? Why? Why? So now you've confused the shit. Tommy, am I, you know what I mean? You can't talk about the power of the Bible and logos and Christianity and Jesus Christ and claim all this and then when the moment happens, and I think that kid, whoever this kid is, won this freaking debate to where you have to say, I don't want to talk to you anymore, you lose it right there. Why don't you say that you're a Christian? What are you scared of?
Starting point is 01:00:00 Well, what's funny is because originally when they uploaded this video on Jubilee, the title was One Christian versus Twenty Atheists. Then they changed the title to Jordan Peterson versus Twenty Atheists. Did you get that? Okay. You want me to say that one more time? So originally it was One Christian, which is who? Jordan Peterson versus Twenty Atheists.
Starting point is 01:00:20 And then they changed it to Jordan Peterson versus Twenty is 20 atheists, because he said, how do you know if I'm a Christian? I mean, that change took place. But Adam, how did you see this between Jordan Peterson and this young kid? Adam Fossum Yeah, only in the modern day of the internet and sound bites can a kid who's likely done nothing with his life, nothing with his life, probably in college so far, come in and own one of the greatest philosophers, speakers, doctors of our time, Jordan Peterson. Now Jordan Peterson probably should have had a better answer. I don't
Starting point is 01:00:55 know his religion. It's not for me to comment on. He is who he is. But this kid has gone famous now for owning Jordan Peterson. I would have loved to see in the rest of the discussion, I would love to see if there was any productivity of having a conversation like this. But for Jordan Peterson's, his entire career to be, you know, stapled on by this kid who just wants to basically dunk on Jordan Peterson
Starting point is 01:01:24 and say, you stand for nothing or whatever he said is just sort of testament to where we're living today where a kid can go famous and viral for basically dunking on a great thinker when a great thinker doesn't necessarily want to argue with a meaningless child. But Adam, but you're assuming it Adam because Jesus Christ didn't mince words in Matthew Tom chapter 10 verse 33. He said, but whoever denies me before men would also deny him before my father who was
Starting point is 01:01:53 in heaven. It's not a riddle. It's a line of the sand. You can't play neutral when it comes to Christ. And I don't care what moment he's having or how philosophical and yes, he's a great mind, but Jesus Christ didn't suffer and die so we could treat faith like a philosophy class because that's not how it is Adam either you're all in or you're one of these sideline poop talkers and I'm just not a fan of it Tom your thoughts on the
Starting point is 01:02:16 premise is if he's not a Christian then he doesn't know that so no he is a Christian but when you're on the spot and you're saying he says, Tom, your thoughts. So I think Jordan Peterson missed a wonderful opportunity because, you know, what's interesting is if you're going to do a debate with people on anything, right, anything, you know, baseball people 10 years ago, debating about designated hitters should it be in both leagues. If you go into a debate on anything at all and you hit the other person on the head, you're going to get nowhere. And when sharing
Starting point is 01:02:53 about faith and when talking about faith, he missed an opportunity because this young man told him what he was thinking. He said, aren't you concerned with, are you familiar with some of the doctrines of Catholicism? And all you have to say is, yes, I'm a Christian and I understand the teachings of Jesus Christ and I know why I believe them. Can you share with me what your foundation is and why you believe that? That's a non-offensive question asking the other person to level set. And then you can walk into apologetics and talk about the very beautiful message that is present and there are Many examples are given in the Bible of how to debate this Paul the Apostle Paul went to Rome And when he was in Rome he walked around and he found an altar and it was the Romans were that that age were very
Starting point is 01:03:40 superstitious they had Romans gods for everything and they had superstitious. They had Roman gods for everything and they had gods for why there was thunder and why there was rain and all kinds of other things. And he comes up to them and because they're superstitious maybe they missed one. They had the thing that said to the tomb, no, an altar to the unknown god. So they're saying and just in case we missed one we don't want you to be upset. Here's your altar and here's where we are. And he said, might I tell you about one you don't know? And the people were curious and engaged in debate. And they said many understood and believed. So when you have an opportunity like this, I think Jordan Peterson missed the boat is what is the problem saying? Yes, I'm a Christian. And here's why
Starting point is 01:04:21 I believe what I believe. I'm interested in you. Why why I believe what I believe I'm interested in you Why do you believe what you believe? Let's talk through a couple of these things Instead you set it all up and the curiosity I had was it set up as I kind of an internet debate Roundtable to get sparks and to bring on views. I don't know what the premise of it was I'm not the producer and I haven't really studied it, but if this could have been done so much better For the benefit of the young man that was sitting there so that he could have understood. Yeah, I have a different opinion. What did he do most of his career?
Starting point is 01:04:53 He did what? He was a professor, he was a teacher. And what kind of people did he deal with exactly like that kid? Think about what he taught. He dealt with kids like that. And he's probably sitting there profiling this kid and he's like, dude, what are you talking about? You know how many tens of thousands of conversations I've had with someone like you? However, if you've got a position, take the position. Rob, is this another one clip that happened from the same episode?
Starting point is 01:05:17 Yeah, from the same two. Okay, let's watch this one here. What do you mean by believe? Can you go back a little bit? We didn't hear the first part. Yeah. Do you believe in the all-knowing, all-powerful, all-good notion of God? What do you mean by believe? Do you think it to be true? That's the circular definition. What do you mean when you say believe? How is that circular?
Starting point is 01:05:38 Because you added no content to the answer by substituting the word true and believe. I said you think it to be true all right so if you believe something you stake your life on it what do you mean by that you live for it and you die for it okay so you're saying that you don't believe something if you wouldn't die for it not really no okay so how would you define belief? Something you say? That's why I explained,
Starting point is 01:06:07 I could believe it is the case that this pen exists, but if someone threatened my life, I would lie in order to be able to save my life. I think you would do that too. You wouldn't lie to save your life? Don't be so sure. You wouldn't lie to save your life? How much do you know about me?
Starting point is 01:06:21 I didn't lie to save my career. I didn't lie to save my clinical practice I didn't lie to save my clinical practice. Would you lie to save your children, your mom, your dad? I don't think lying would save them. Can there ever be a circumstance logically that lying could save someone? Yeah, and if you're steeped in sin, you're likely to live in circumstances like that.
Starting point is 01:06:39 I'll give you an example. If you're in Nazi Germany, and it is the case that there's Jewish people in your attic and you're trying to protect them Would you lie to like the Nazis? I would have done everything I bloody well could so I wouldn't be in that situation It's a hypothetical and it's not No, I can't answer a hypothetical like that because it's fine Don't play games
Starting point is 01:07:01 I just told you I would do everything that I could to make sure that I'm never in that situation. By the time you've got there, you've made so many mistakes that there's nothing you can do that isn't a sin. Being born in Nazi Germany and trying to protect people that you care about, like there could be a Jewish friend that you have and you want to protect them. I think you should just give up on that line of questioning. But like, again, you're not answering this hypothetical because you know it shows that you clearly and you want to protect them. I think you should just give up on that line of questioning. But like, okay, again, you're not answering this hypothetical because
Starting point is 01:07:26 you know it shows that you clearly would lie to save someone's life. I'm answering it. Obviously that's not what the truth is. You don't find acceptable. Obviously because I care about the truth. I wouldn't be in that scenario. Obviously, right? Logically because that's already happened. Like that's in the past. You don't have a time travel device. I don't get to argue. So wait a minute. The kid is making a point, Pat, by saying, let's say you were a German person in Germany during Nazi Germany and you're harboring a Jewish family to save them. That's a very hypothetical, but Jordan Peterson's argument is, I would never put myself in that situation. No, he's missing the point completely. He's saying, what if you were that German family? He's not making any sense in that argument.
Starting point is 01:08:06 Tom, did you understand the argument he was making? Yeah, what the kid was trying to do was basically called the sin entrapment. And he's trying to get him to admit that he would lie. And he's also lying is a sin. So you have to lie to do this or that. Whereas you're talking about being faced with great evil. And if you read in the Old Testament, there is an example of a woman who lied to Pharaoh's hitmen and sent them off in the wrong direction so that other people could proceed on God's mission over here. And so,
Starting point is 01:08:41 would I have lied about people being in the attic? Yeah, you have Schindler and you have Anne Frank, you have all the stories of everything, what happened over there. And the kid was, I feel like trying to put this in a corner, but then Jordan Peterson was almost kind of losing his composure and losing his patience. And I kind of agree with what you said a few minutes ago, Pat.
Starting point is 01:09:01 It's like, you are example number six, and I have seen so many of you kids who are example number six and I'm not even going to listen to it. No, you know what? You know what? There's a great verse in the Bible and it says how Jesus put his hand on a man and it said Jesus sighed because he was tired. But you know what he did that day? He still did what he was intended to do and he healed the guy. But it said he sighed and you could just see him going Be healed it means he was tired and there's a lot going on in life and what I think is going on there It appeared that Jordan Peterson was out of out of
Starting point is 01:09:36 patience you kind of lost his composure a little bit and At a time where you really need to call on the peace of God so that you can present these things To people who are doubters and see if you can win, you know I a not win a point you're not it's not about winning or losing but maybe Bring them to a level of understanding or bring something forward to them Yeah, because they came in armed to kind of point you in one or two directions. And guess what? That's fine. Adam, your thoughts.
Starting point is 01:10:08 So, you know, Jordan Peterson, this moral question of whether you should lie to save a life, whether you're Nazi Germany or whether you're in modern day America, preserving life and saving a life overrides all other perceived sins by far. So to me it's not even a question. Yes, you lie, cheat and steal to save your kid's life, to save your wife's life, to save your own life. It's a non-starter for me. Yes, you lie in that case, just like Osler Schindler lied thousands of times to save thousands of lives. It's a non-question to me.
Starting point is 01:10:50 But what, Adam, but what- I'm sorry, go. As far as what Jordan Peterson is doing, I don't know if this is a good look for him or a bad look. I think it's an obvious bad look for someone who's basically made a name for himself over decades to basically be dismantled by a group of young pompous freaking atheists. Cool. But then on the
Starting point is 01:11:11 bright side there's gonna be an entire new audience of teenagers and twenty-somethings who go, who is this guy? Jordan Peterson. And they're gonna find out about his books and they're gonna find about his speeches. They're gonna find out about what he believes. So he find about his speeches they're gonna find out of what he believes so he's almost needs to in my humble opinion reinvent himself for the modern Gen Z culture because everyone who is in their 30s and above has heard of Jordan Peterson in my perception so Jordan is a is a very smart but also emotional man I've seen him crying on camera too many times to mention. PBD, I know you've had an experience with this. So I don't know
Starting point is 01:11:50 what he's dealing with right now but he's one of the greats, he's one of the goats especially in the modern internet podcast culture and I wish him the best. But the question was Adam twice and yes these are atheists and number one you know what you're getting into. You don't go to a wedgie contest and then you get a wedgie and you're like what the hell is going on he's going to a debate with atheists and if you're gonna claim you're a Christian he'll say things like I act as if God exists I'm afraid he might exist that's not a confession of faith that's a hedge bet and I'm sorry I'm not trying to be preacher guy you know I mean I'm
Starting point is 01:12:24 not talking the talk I'm walking the walk and I'm trying to live that life and I'm trying to be a better person if you're gonna be that guy say it admit it okay I'm a I'm a Christian and that's it Tom there's no if ands or what's about I'm not as knowledge as you I'm not as smart and you know you know philosophical as Jordan Peterson but Adam this isn't a sideline thing but when it comes to Christ, you're either all in if you believe in Him, and you are a Christian, either you're all in or you're not.
Starting point is 01:12:51 There's none of this, oh well these people I'm going to hang out with them, I'm going to be over here. No, it's not that Pat, what do you think? Yeah, no, to me he looks upset, he looks agitated, he looks annoyed. And by the way, it happens to many of us when you're sitting in a place like that, you're not going to be a robot, even when Trump was asking the question, saying, hey, so what are you going to be doing if Putin doesn't listen? You think I'm going to tell you? You think I'm going to tell you fake news?
Starting point is 01:13:20 Nobody hears a machine and a robot. However, in a situation like that, when you're sitting with someone in your mind trying to debate an atheist, I don't know how long it's going to take for this guy to realize it. Because typically faith is an experience of life, something's happening to you and going through a journey. I mean, you saw a story recently that talks about Joe Rogan's been going to church. What do you mean Joe Rogan's been going to church? Yeah, Joe Rogan's been going to church? Yeah, Joe Rogan's been going to church. I think this happened after Wes Huff, you were telling me yesterday with ex-atheists,
Starting point is 01:13:51 Joe Rogan makes major life changes after revelations on Podcast Sparks, resurgence of Christianity. How did that happen? Did that happen accidentally? Did that happen to a 22-year-old man? You think Joe's had a lot of deep conversations with a lot of powerful people around the world and met a lot of weird people? You think the best podcasts Joe Rogan's ever done are the podcasts that you've seen on Spotify or Apple or YouTube? No. The best podcasts Joe Rogan's ever done were never recorded, were never
Starting point is 01:14:19 televised, were never put on an outfit. You don't think he's had enough people that are on the atheist side try to convince him otherwise. Why is he not looking at it at this age? He's had the most money he's ever had. It's not like he is going through something. He's famous, he's got money, he's family, everything's good, and you're going through that.
Starting point is 01:14:37 So this process of a person thinking they know it all when they're 23 years old coming out of college, getting a tattoo that says whatever on it with the little, I don't know if you saw that little fatty that had a tattoo there. You see these types of things that happen and then you're like, you know what? One day I'm going to grow out of it. I'll never forget I'm at my Army unit. I'm there at the tattoo shop about to get a tattoo of a cobra on my chest. And I'm like, man, I want to get this cobra.
Starting point is 01:15:04 Why do you want to get a cobra tattoo? Because my unit at 228 Fort Jackson was called the Cobras. And I was going to cost you $200. I'm like, dude, I only got $80. I can't do it. You realize if I had an additional $120, I would have had a cobra tattooed on my chest. That would have been sick, Pat. That would have not been sick. I would have been sitting here explaining to myself why. I want to slither that jelly. You know what the moral of the story is. When you're young, you do some dumb shit and you think you know it all.
Starting point is 01:15:30 Sometimes it takes a life to really beat the living crap out of you to grow up and say, maybe I've got to start looking at some of this stuff. Maybe I have to realize that, how did this kid happen? This is a full on miracle. Go watch a couple deliveries and see what takes place and what God does. Go through life and experience some of the things you realize, maybe I don't know it all, man. Maybe this whole thing about the only thing I know is that I know nothing.
Starting point is 01:15:53 The more you're growing up, I think Socrates said that on his deathbed, if I'm not mistaken, we're all learning, we're all getting better, just like these 20 people, as well as Jordan Peterson. He's also going through it as well. And who knows what he's going through. But this definitely, when you do something like this, I don't know if losing your cool. By the way, you know how simple this could be? We had a rule in our office. Say you're giving a speech today to 50 people that are coming to us to do business with
Starting point is 01:16:19 us. Say Adam's giving a speech. You know what the rule was? Whoever is the speaker that's speaking to guests and clients today, no one go tell him bad news before he hits the stage. We had a basic rule. Let's just say something very bad happened. Why did you give him bad news? And then he gets on stage and he's pissed off. Something bad could have happened literally 30 minutes before he went in there. They pissed him off and mom called him, wife called him, somebody called him and he got pissed off going in there like, you know what, what the fuck, and then he puts it on those
Starting point is 01:16:48 people. No one knows. Anyways, you're a professional, you should be above it. Let's move to the next story. I think Adam, you were going to ask something? I just want to get, I know this will go real quick, but one of the greatest things PBD has ever done to me is say, Adam, get closer to God. And whatever religion you are, I love what you say about getting married is hard,
Starting point is 01:17:09 not getting married is risky or is harder. Not having kids is risky. Not having kids is risky. Not following God is risky. Not believing in God is risky. My question is this, because I've moved in this direction, I've seen Vinny move in this direction, and I know Tom has changed lives. For followers of
Starting point is 01:17:29 Christ, my question is this. You remember when I went to Jerusalem and I went to the Armenian church, and I sent you those videos, and I got you the gifts from Jerusalem from the Armenian church? It had me thinking, I said, man, like, all right, what's the difference between the Armenian Church and the Vatican and the Roman Catholic Church and Eastern Orthodox? And, you know, I went to high school in Miami and it was a Presbyterian high school. And then I have friends who are Mormon and Protestant, evangelical, Lutheran, Methodist, Anglican. These are just the names I'm thinking of. Jehovah's Witness in Egypt,
Starting point is 01:18:10 there's Coptic Christians, Anglican Baptists. Isn't it all just you have to be a follower of Christ if you're a Christian? Why are there so many different sects to Christianity? You're asking me the question? I'm asking just the general question is maybe Jordan Peterson isn't a quote-unquote Christian, he's just a believer in God. So that's my question to the group. What's the difference with all these religions and does it have to be partitioned into all these different segments? Aren't you
Starting point is 01:18:43 just supposed to be a follower of Christ? Isn't that the whole conversation? I think now you're going to, you know, we believe the baptism is under what, we believe it's with the drop of the water. No, we believe it's this and we believe, it's these, you know, changes that they make on small things that they add.
Starting point is 01:19:01 Some of them have more rituals than others and there's a very much of a high retention rate to an organization that causes their members to have rituals versus those who don't because if it's rituals you're thinking about it more than another faith is thinking about it. So the other faith that's not thinking about it, the other sect that's not thinking about it as much, they're not as disciplined. And if you notice Muslims, no matter what's going on, they're praying.
Starting point is 01:19:24 Some of them are praying God knows how many times a day that forces you to be more disciplined, to be thinking about your God, to be thinking about your faith. So that's a whole different topic. That's a two-three hour podcast that I don't think it's something we need to get into. But I think- And I get that. But maybe that's what Jordan Peterson was thinking, is don't define me by a specific label. I get that, but if you're sitting with that audience, you have to sit there and like let you say if I sat down and there's 20 of the guys and we're talking business.
Starting point is 01:19:54 Well, you know, capitalism, all they care about is this. Have you ever started a business? I have. How many employees do you have? Tell me something. Who has ever quote on you, stolen from you? Nobody ever. You haven't ever built a business yet.
Starting point is 01:20:04 You're small. So you're kind of going through that moment of conversation versus who do you have a job with, who pays you, boom. What company is it, boom. Who was the founder? You think they lost, let's go look them up right now. You think that person went through a divorce. You think that person went through some challenges.
Starting point is 01:20:19 I think it's got to be that giving the perspective versus automatically jumping to conclusion, losing patience to not allow them to be sitting there saying, well, you know, I like the way he handled me that he got me to think about it. You know, it's like that one video. What is that one video we show where this man keeps going to this man that's talking about Jesus loves you? Shut the fuck up. Have you guys ever seen this clip? With the black guy?
Starting point is 01:20:42 Yeah, yeah, yeah, homeless guy in the street. Homeless guy in the street. I think, did we show this on a podcast a couple weeks ago? I don't remember. Yeah, homeless guy in the street. Yeah, homeless guy in the street. Did we show this on a podcast a couple weeks ago? I don't remember. Rob, did we show this on a podcast? Oh my God, you have to see this thing. I almost don't want to even show it because he's disrespecting him the entire time.
Starting point is 01:20:55 Does he use some choice words, Vinny? I think he used some choice words. He does a couple of what they might have bleeped it out. So yeah, it's a- And then all of a sudden you see he asks him hey man Can I just pray for you? Can I just pray for you you mind if I pray for you? Let me pray for you and it's silent and then eventually the white man is probably in his young mid-50s the
Starting point is 01:21:15 Mid-40s, I don't know how old he is. It looks a little bit younger I you showed me this clip if you can't find it Let me maybe him Berto's text and I saying that he found it Let me see if that's the one that he's texting. No. If you find it, we'll show it. You texted to me somewhere, but it was great. Anyways, the moral of the story is, at the end of it, the guy says, can I just pray for you? And he says, you know what? I appreciate that. I appreciate the fact that he just dropped a prayer for me. It was a great exercise. Anyways, okay, if you find it, we'll show it. If not, I'm going to move on to the next
Starting point is 01:21:43 story. Next story here is George Floyd. So very, very interesting. Another target boycott called this Sunday to honor George Floyd in a prayerful protest. Reverend Dr. Jamal Bryan announced a national target boycott on May 25th to honor the fifth anniversary of George Floyd's murder, leading to a 9-minute 29-second prayer gathering at Conyers, Georgia. Target stating its national act of unity through faith. Twenty other faith leaders will hold similar protests at Target stores across multiple
Starting point is 01:22:17 states, following Target's rollback DI program. Rob, is this a clip? Before you clip it, let me give some stats here to everybody that's watching this Target has faced declining sales with a 3.1 percent revenue drop in q4 and a 2.8 percent decline in q1 of 2025 driven by 6 percent fall in comparable stores Sales with a 4.8 percent decrease in store visits per placard.ai, Brian's Target, Fast.org claiming 200,000 supporters demanding Target reinstate $2 billion in black-owned product purchases and fully restore DEI, as he told CNN, we're not going to spend our dollars where we're not honored. Rob, go ahead equality for all people.
Starting point is 01:23:17 Five years ago, the CEO of Target said that George Floyd could get rid of his employees and with no pressure made a pledge of $2 billion. That doesn't look like R. Kelly to you. That looks like him. My mind! R. Kelly! Away from diversity, equity and inclusion is a stark contrast from where we were five years ago. To give your name the glory, the honor and the thanksgiving, God keep us on target.
Starting point is 01:23:41 Yes! It was very important to me. The pastor declared he had a vision to what was supposed to take place. That vision didn't happen. We stand on business. We stand on God's promise. We stand on the Word. We're not going back. We're going forward.
Starting point is 01:23:55 We are like the number one consumer suspender. I myself fall in that category. You can pause that one there Rob. Tom, your thoughts on this? I honestly, but listen, I'm not trying to be offensive. I thought I was R. Kelly for a second. He got out. I thought he was in doing time. Apparently it's a pastor. God bless you. Go ahead, Tom. He reminded you of R. Kelly. Yeah, he reminded me of R. Kelly. Go ahead.
Starting point is 01:24:15 So I'll start with Target and I'll make that short and sweet. They managed this horribly from DEI to George Floyd and then they had all the conservative people mad because they had all these Remember those the trans were for small children of the bathing suits that were girls bathing suits for boys That featured a pouch for tucking all that stuff that flipped out the conservative in the family audience because that stuff was there And they said we're boycotting you and they went the other way in DEI and then when they walked back DEI all the people in favor of the I came back and said now we're upset with you and we're boycotting you so bad Management and bowing the public pressure and and and things like that put you in a bad place That's target now. I'm going to talk about the the people gathering together there
Starting point is 01:25:04 I think it was beautiful that they gathered together peacefully I think it was beautiful. They were they using freedom of speech to make their point I think it was beautiful that they had their pastor there now, you know, you can't criticize one group's boycott and holding prayer service and Then condemn another group's boycott and holding a pair of service, right? Even though they may be a little different. And I think what this comes out is we need a national act of unity on parenting. We need a national act of unity on communities living together without artificial things
Starting point is 01:25:40 like DEI trying to force issues. And I know people are going to say, well, you're a white guy, you could say that. No, no, I can say that. I can say it would be better in America if we all came together in a spirit of unity and starting with churches. And, you know, I think would be a great place to start that. And I think Target, you know, really blew it, you know, bowing to one side or the other. And these people are getting together and they're standing for their side peacefully freedom of speech. I didn't see anything crazy there And so they're boycotting and other people are boycotting our national unity needs to be to go upstream and get to the root Causes what was going on with George Floyd? What was going on with fentanyl? What was going on with with men without fathers? What was going on with fentanyl? What was going on with with men without fathers? These are the things that we need to come together and find unity because in our diversity of thought we will find unity of purpose in
Starting point is 01:26:37 Wanting to make things better and raise better citizens along the Adam your thoughts so the conversation that we need to have especially for my friends in the black community is The conversation around the hero-making machine, which you've touched on timeless times, PBD. George Floyd was not a hero, he was not a legend, he was not a champion of any particular cause, especially any cause that affects the Black community. What he was is a poster child for perceived victimhood or perceived police brutality. My hope and prayer for my friends in the black community is stop perpetuating the same two or three career paths
Starting point is 01:27:19 as the heroes. The black community will succeed in my opinion when they do this. Stop putting athletes, ballers and rappers as the people to look up to in life. When you start putting people like businessmen, thinkers, doctors, physicists, lawyers, teachers, anyone who's actually got a degree and done something with their life or started a business and has improved the community, that is the time that you'll see your community succeed.
Starting point is 01:27:53 I want nothing in life more than as American to see people who have been wronged in the past to basically rise up and be the greatest they could possibly be. That includes having more black fathers in the home. I have a lot of black friends, a lot of black people that are amazing friends of mine. I want nothing more than to see them succeed. And I will start with the father in the home and the hero-making machine being elevated to a better extent.
Starting point is 01:28:22 By the way, this is a mayor. Rob, is this the funeral or is this the five year? This is the funeral of George Floyd. This is not the five year. No, this is the funeral where he breaks down and cries. Where he breaks down and cries. I mean, it's a spectacle is what it is. It's not necessarily anything that the mayor is crying with his mask on. Yeah, so Vinny, what are your thoughts on this story here with Target?
Starting point is 01:28:42 To be honest with you, I don't have a crazy opinion of it. It's just the whole situation. And I've said this how many times. You would never have heard George, none of us in this room or the entire world, no BLM, no nothing, none of it happens if George Floyd wasn't a piece of crap as a human being for all the stuff that he did. Robbing people's houses with a bunch of guys, with a pregnant woman, holding a gun to her,
Starting point is 01:29:08 doing all the stuff, high on drugs, trying to pass a fake 20 at that place, he never would have met Derek Chauvin if he wasn't a piece of you know what. That's at the end of the day. Be a good person, and again, Adam, you nailed it too. It starts at the home, it starts with freaking being raised the right way even though
Starting point is 01:29:26 Society it promotes that single mother you go You could do it all by yourself and all that nonsense and trying to destroy the nuclear family. It's all on purpose It's trying to make everybody reliable on the freaking government and when you want to talk about murders Tom What's the number one murderer of black people and you've talked about this before and you brought her name up. Who started the whole thing? Oh, you wanna go, you're gonna go- Just really quick, please. Planned Parenthood? Planned Parenthood.
Starting point is 01:29:51 Yep, exactly. How many children, how many black children does that thing freaking murder every single year? It's never been greater than 16. The African American community has not crossed, to my memory, 16% of the population, but it consistently rides at 40 to 42% of the annual abortions.
Starting point is 01:30:08 Let that sink in to everybody. So when people want me to cry and bend the knee and burn the entire country down because the one scumbag who was high on drugs, I'm not buying it, Pat. Well listen, this message is brought to you guys by Trojan Condoms. Look, without even taking any money from them. I want to say go use their product
Starting point is 01:30:29 Because you know even last minute when you get excited you still got to find one Sometimes we got to run down the store to 7-eleven. We can find something. There's seven ones everywhere You got to go protect yourself because we got a lord at 42% to 16% 13% Okay, let's go to a real story guys., I mean, you know, we all fight. You know, we all have issues with our spouses and things happen, but I swear to God, if your wife smacked you upside the head, the way Macron's husband and Macron's wife hit him,
Starting point is 01:30:58 this is inappropriate. If he's watching this, this is very inappropriate. You don't behave like this. When the world is watching, watch this here. Watch this here, what happened. The best part about this is how many people have made spoofs of this with blonde hair, with wigs being thrown, all this other stuff. Rob, go and watch this clip. Watch this clip here. Go for it. Oh! Hey!
Starting point is 01:31:24 Oh, is this slow motion? Is this slow motion? motion wait you open the door too early Oh Two hands hi everybody if what you doing Look he's rubbing his face and then look at this Does he walk this you walk? Yeah. Yeah, look at those shoulders, bro. Look at that guy. Look at this guy. Look at this guy, bro If I was McCrone I would have kicked him in the nuts What was that though what do you think happened there Vinny? I just I think it's just a fight between a couple you think that's all that was like what happened there I mean, what did they say Rob? What has been said, the feedback on what happened there?
Starting point is 01:32:06 Well what they said, well Macron brushed it off and he said that they were, he was joking around with his wife and he said people were overreacting, calling it geo planetary catastrophe. And by the way, his team claimed initially that the video was fake. Did you guys know that? Just like CNN with deep fakes,
Starting point is 01:32:22 with Joe Biden falling over the place. But then he admitted it was real but harmless. And Brigitte didn't take his arm afters that you guys saw walking all stiff But I mean guys, let's just let's remember are you gonna believe anything that these people say? Be honest with yourself because if allegedly all the reports especially with everything that we've heard which has ruined them They met when he was 15 and she was 40 years old. I think that she has been abusing him his entire freaking life since he was underage and a freaking child.
Starting point is 01:32:55 And can you imagine being exposed as much as they've been exposed? I mean, it's bad. What kind of conversations are happening there? You know what he, she is saying? How, I'm assuming how Dare you you let people like Candace Owens get this to a point where she he she He you know what I'm talking about
Starting point is 01:33:15 Can't even walk around because you know guys put yourself in and shims feet and shoes for high heels or sneakers when they're at the house and shoes for high heels or sneakers when they're at the house. Everybody's looking at them in France and the talk of the town is that that is a man. That is the talk of the town. So could you imagine the conversations that Brigitte is saying? Saying, Emmanuel, you're the president. You couldn't have paid more. You couldn't have offered more or done more to shut up these voices for what's happening. Do you have any opinions on this? I don't want to spend a lot of time on this. I just know. No, it just, it's just my last word. It's a bad look. It's a bad, it was a bad look and it's poorly explained. Who's ever done that? Adam, Adam, you seem like you have
Starting point is 01:33:55 a lot of opinions on this. Yeah, strong, strong shoulders. It's, it encapsulates what France is at this point. It's a young French dude getting dominated by a alleged transgender. Older French dude. Exactly. So any real man would not play this game. We all been in relationships, you get an arguments to put your hands on your husband's face to slap him around.
Starting point is 01:34:36 And he's like, hey, hello, hello. Good to see everybody. It just, it encapsulates exactly not only what's going on in that relationship, but in that country. If you're telling me that someone's together and there's a 25 year age difference, I'll say, okay, how much older is he than her? No, no, no, no, no, no, no. He's the younger guy.
Starting point is 01:34:57 What? It makes completely no sense to me. But this is what the French people elected. Would you have respected him more if he slapped back? Would you have liked it? Let's just say the same thing happens. He hits, what's her name? Brigitte hits him and then you see him backhanding Brigitte. Would you have respected him more if he swung back? 1000%? Yeah. First of all, I wouldn't want to have seen that but I'm waiting for the I'm waiting for the memes
Starting point is 01:35:25 What if it's kind of you always do the last line before we get off the plane? Yes What if when I'm being serious with you guys so let's just change the four second But look many years ago they know why Dana White had an incident Yeah, Dana White had an incident at a bar on December 31st, whatever was New Year's Eve I don't know if you remember that of course even love he even reactedclub? He even reacted to it. But then it was bam bam. Quick. Right, it was bam bam, it was like one one. Would you have respected Macron more if he swung back?
Starting point is 01:35:52 Yes, because I believe that that's a dude. So guess what, if two fellas wanna get it on. No, we don't need to play that Rob. I'm just saying like. I'm saying yes, especially if, which I believe in my heart of hearts, that that's a dude, I'm punching back, dog. Like, yo homie. No, but that's not it. I let you eat the last cookie before we got off the plane dude. I'm punching back dog Like yo homie, but that's not that's not it. Let's just say let's just say if it if it is a lady
Starting point is 01:36:10 Let's say if it is it's it's a strong-shouldered lady But let's just say if it is a lady if it is a lady Would you have said okay? He had least like protected himself or no he shouldn't put hands on her to block block it I would have definitely like that by me punching her, it's not even a fair fight, because even if it's a dude, it's a little bit. No, you're blocking constraint. You don't co-cock a woman.
Starting point is 01:36:30 You're blocking constraint. Men are bigger, stronger. But if you knew that Brigitte is a man, and that happened. Swing, but Pat, I'm doing like an elbow, eh, shit, oh, top of the side. No, no, no, I'm doing dental work, I'm telling you. We got a little out of control here.
Starting point is 01:36:49 It was just an innocent question, guys. Trying to see what's going on here. The answer is no. Yeah, all right. Unless you're John Connery. All right, sounds good. Well, listen Adam, I'm glad you said what you said. Give a woman a little crap.
Starting point is 01:36:59 Let me go to this Ronda Santis story. Where's this Ronda Santis story? It says page six, but I'm on six and I don't see it. Is it seven? Rob, can you tell me where the Ronda Santis story is? I do not see it on page six. Oh, okay. Let me go page five it is. Okay. So Ronda Santis seemingly met with You Suck Chance at Florida's WWE event. Newsweek. At WWE, I don't know if this, Saturday night main event at Tampa's Yonge Link Center, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis faced apparent crowd hostility with a viral video promoting an ex-user to post. Governor Sanders just showed up and the crowd started booing him and chanting, You Suck.
Starting point is 01:37:41 There's no way that's him. Go ahead and play this rap. It won't take long to tell you Neutral's ingredients. Vodka, soda, natural flavors. So what should we talk about? No sugar added? Neutral. Refreshingly simple. No, that's not Rob. What was happening prior to that?
Starting point is 01:38:34 There's no way he walked in and they booed him, you suck. Are you guys following Tom? Yeah, yeah. What was happening in the ring? I want a wide shot of the whole arena. What was going on there? I mean was this a like a when things like this happen I've heard that at wrestling or boxing events Pat or an undercard or it's a split decision and the you suck that's meant for the refs you know I'm talking about I want to see the wide shot of the arena what else was
Starting point is 01:38:59 going on there is this really reacting to the walk-in by Ron DeSantis or is there something else going on Rob? What's this? This is a different angle. Yeah, this is a different angle and you can see the ring It doesn't look like there's any action happening press inside the ring at the time and when you watch you can see the TV guys Are going towards Ron DeSantis. They want to do that if there's a match going on inside. Let me see it it. You suck! You suck! You suck! You suck! You suck! You suck! You suck!
Starting point is 01:39:28 You suck! You suck! You suck! You suck! You suck! You suck! You suck! You suck!
Starting point is 01:39:36 You suck! You suck! You suck! You suck! You suck! You suck! You suck! You suck!
Starting point is 01:39:44 You suck! You suck! You suck! You suck! You suck! into the whole, yeah, we're wrestling and we're U-suck. Like, I don't know. Rob, go to ChadGBT and ask the question, were fans booing Ron DeSantis when he walked into the WWE arena? Let's see, because I'm sure this has been asked so many times by different people, I'm sure they have the data on it. Let's see what they say. Crying, yeah, screaming U-suck when he walked into the arena.
Starting point is 01:40:03 No, you have to put U- you suck because can you just stop that search and just add the you suck to it? The key word is you suck. I don't wanna keep saying that phrase, but I just like if you can, yelling you suck. Yeah, there you go. You suck. Yeah, there you go.
Starting point is 01:40:19 All right, let's see this here. See what our friends at Chad GBT will say about this event taking place. Yes? Oh, shoot. I'm trying to give him grace here. During WWE's Saturday mainline, the Young Link Center, Florida, met with booze and chants of, you suck, from the crowd as the pier rings out with his children.
Starting point is 01:40:40 The reception was notably hostile with attendees making their disapproval clear. This incident asked for a pattern of right-wing figures receiving negative reactions at WWE events. For instance, Hawk Hogan with similarly to Bud Benz on Monday Night Raw in January despite WWE. That's all I'm going to say. Got it. Well, I don't know about that.
Starting point is 01:40:59 The biggest awkward thing, Adam, here for me, and I'll come to you as the following, is you know how in life there's levels to any game you play. There's levels to being good with girls. There's levels to being good with playing poker. There's levels to being good at badgamming. There's levels to having knowledge on cigars. There's levels to being a bodybuilder. There's levels to have a knowledge on cigars. There's levels to be in a bodybuilder. There's levels to wealth. There's levels to fame. It's such a bad look to walk into an arena thinking he's going to get the reaction that Trump did. It's just a bad look because you are not Trump. You're just not. And the more
Starting point is 01:41:42 you try to do that, if you ever read the book 40 Laws of Power or 33 Strategies of War or if you read The Prince, like I don't know if he's ever read these books. He needs to go read these books. For the next three months, take time off and just read like 20 of these books I would recommend you to go through. You don't try to come and shine while the greatest promoter of all time as a president is in the White House right now. You think you're going to get the same reaction as him?
Starting point is 01:42:13 It's a very, very bad look in my opinion. I was trying to give grace thinking there's no way in the world that happened. It was two other wrestlers in there until Rob, who apparently is an anti-desantist, I didn't even know that, jumps in. But Adam, your thoughts on this? I think we got it all wrong here, guys. I mean, we all remember when they were all shouting F Joe Biden and they interpreted it as let's go Brandon.
Starting point is 01:42:37 So in my humble opinion at this wrestling match, which I think Logan Paul was wrestling, I want to say. They were saying, you're up, not you suck. They wanted the great governor Ron DeSantis of Florida to wrestle Logan Paul. They said, you're up, you're up, you're up. They wanted him to be a fighter, not a bootlicker.
Starting point is 01:43:03 And they wanted him to get him to and not be the Tom your thoughts on this because Adams being silly right now. I was actually asking you a sincere Follow up on this. Tell me I'm gonna ignore the last 42 seconds It ever happened in world history and I'm gonna go to your point and your point is clear How many times have we seen Pat? like Clear how many times have we seen Pat? like Businesses come to bet David consulting or they come to the vault and they say hey my competitor did this should I do this? And we always ask them. Why do you want to do that? Is that their positioning is that your positioning? Are you showing your difference? Are you showing their difference?
Starting point is 01:43:39 Are you trying to have your next innovative campaign and do something in it? Are you trying to have your next innovative campaign and do something in it? Copycatting rarely works whether it's commercials whether it's you know, you know Political stunts it rarely works. You've seen situations where they tried to copy I remember when Al Gore in 2000 this goes back 24 years ago 25 years ago I remember when Alan T, who told this big lie that the movie and the book love story Eric Siegel wrote was based on him and Tipper. That's pretty.
Starting point is 01:44:14 Where do I begin? Yeah, exactly. To tell a story of how greater love can be. Avoiding the draft, cause my dad took care of me so it's like that's actually really good job so it's like yeah it was maybe it was about Al Gore hell maybe I'm the one that's wrong here so basically they they were doing this kiss at the end of their rallies and the kiss became bigger and then he started like dipping her like you know the way you know the first kiss you know you have a first dance with your bride and you know at the dance
Starting point is 01:44:48 at your reception you give her a little dip and a kiss and everybody applauds and she dances with her dad and all that kind of stuff so you don't run the other guy's playbook if you want to be different you don't run the other guy's copycat playbook anytime in marketing and I think that's what DeSantis just did and that kind of stuff doesn't work. Whether they're yelling or not, it's the wrong playbook. That would have been, but I will tell you Tom, I was in a complete different setting and he did come out and he did get that kind of reception. Dana never walked out with him, but he was somewhere, comedy or something that was going on that he walked out and he did get that kind of reception. Dana never walked out with him, but he was somewhere, comedy or something
Starting point is 01:45:25 that was going on, that he walked out and he did get that kind of reception. You know when it was? At the peak of COVID. Because at the peak of COVID, people loved the work that he was doing. Something happened after the way he handled himself in the 2024 election, trying to be a president that completely took away all the great work he did during COVID, being the best, the greatest governor in all of America, being the standard of how to handle COVID. In my opinion, he crushed it and hopefully he will hire a different marketing team if he hasn't already. Who knows?
Starting point is 01:45:57 Maybe they've been fired 17 times and there's new people coming in left and right that we don't even know about. All right, let's continue to the next story here. Rob, the next story I want to go to is, it's got to do a little bit with Chris Cuomo, what he said recently, but maybe I'm gonna take a different angle with this. So I'm watching this show, you know,
Starting point is 01:46:16 and obviously we heard about the tragic event that took place last week with Muslim killing a Christian and a Jew, I believe at the Israeli embassy. Originally they thought they were both going to be Jewish, but they were not. One of them was Christian, one of them was Jewish. And then Chris Cuomo came out and had some thoughts to share about this. Rob, go ahead and play this clip. Go for it.
Starting point is 01:46:38 Democrats, my brothers and sisters, I understand why you're worried about Trump. I understand why you call him an ultimate evil, but I don't agree. And if you want the ultimate evil, look at the Islamists, the extreme ones in America, not just Muslims. And mind your dogs who are doing their bidding. What am I talking about? Look online to the reaction. Americans calling a terrorist a hero again saying he, like the health care CEO murderer, was
Starting point is 01:47:11 justified in violence. It's the same thing I've heard in Iraq and Afghanistan but now echoing from Indiana. This is not a one-off. It's just one more of what we choose to ignore. You remember that Islamist who drove a pickup truck with an ISIS flag attached through Bourbon Street? Killing 14 people, injuring dozens and dozens more? You know he's a citizen from Texas, right? And we used to see that as an irony, right? Wow, from Texas. That's like the last place you'd expect a Muslim extremist from, right? Wrong. Texas is ground zero for what I'm talking about. Did you know there's a push to create an Islamic residential development there? A thousand homes, K through 12, faith-based school, a mosque, shops, insular community.
Starting point is 01:48:05 What's wrong with that? Everything. Here, we assimilate. Here, the struggle is to remove the distinctions, the melting of the melting pot. That's what we're trying to reduce. The religious leader pushing for the project has openly admired the Muslim Brotherhood.
Starting point is 01:48:26 Who are they? I'll tell you. Openly defended Hamas's killing of innocent civilians on October 7th. The developers initially advertised that the community would limit sales to only persons we believe will contribute to the overall makeup of our community. Meaning who? Reports say 75% of the housing fees will go to finance alone. You can pause it right there. So you see Chris going very hard on this right here.
Starting point is 01:48:53 And it's interesting the position he's taken with what happened there, okay? And then you and I are sitting there watching this one host. His name is Malik Maktoubi. I think originally his family is from Esfahan, Iran. He's in Lebanon doing a show that, I don't know what the show is called, it could be his name, but it's a show where he does some controversial interviews. LBC, Pat?
Starting point is 01:49:17 LBC International. LBC International. What is LBC? Lebanese Broadcasting Corporation International. And he's interviewing this young girl, okay, if you watch this interview, he's interviewing this young girl, and Vinny, I don't know if you've seen this or not,
Starting point is 01:49:31 he's interviewing this young girl, Rob, I don't know if you have the clip or not, it's a young girl he's interviewing, who is maybe 13 years old, she could be 13 years old, and the question comes about about her fiancee that she's married and he's straight up going and asking these tough questions. Is this the one Rob?
Starting point is 01:49:49 Yeah there's another one. Zoom in a little one. Okay can I see if this is the one? Can you refresh this real quick to see if this is the one? Let me see this one. Okay yeah this is the one. Play this clip. Okay watch this folks.
Starting point is 01:50:00 Little weird, little weird but watch this. Audio, go for it No, who dropped you out of school my fiance My fiance 25 years old I don't want to let her loose. How old are you? I am 10 years old. She is 25 years old. He is 25 years old.
Starting point is 01:50:44 He is 25 years old. She is 10 years old. He's 25 years old. He's 25 years old. She's 10 years old. And by the way, just so you guys know, the interviewer, Rob, just so everybody knows it, this is what makes it very interesting. The interviewer, if you go look up who he is, Rob, Malik Maktabi. Can you ask what religion is Malik Maktabi? No, Rob, you just fully butchered the last name. It's M-A-K-T-A-B-I's M-A-K-T-A-B-I.
Starting point is 01:51:09 What religion is he? Just go to his Wikipedia. What is Wikipedia if you could? Zoom out a little bit. Okay, so zoom out a little bit so I can read it, Rob. So Beirut is a television presenter known for his show, Amer Bill Khat Al-Rid, Red and Bull Face. And if you go through reading about him, he is himself, I believe, a Muslim interviewing
Starting point is 01:51:32 these things. So you're hearing what Chris is saying, hey, we can't, this cannot happen in America, this cannot happen over here, that cannot happen over here. Vinny, what is your thoughts when you're hearing Chris? You know we're watching this clip a 10 year old Fiance 25 years old in Lebanon. You know these are very strange stories when you hear about it. What's your position with this? first of all I am Beyond uncomfortable about that I sent Rob another one pat an updated like a newer one version of a girl and her age
Starting point is 01:52:03 I think that's just that's Adam Adam You're rustling your papers. Um, I just sent one Adam about a 13 year old girl Her name is we am 13 year old and they with a 29 year old and they asked she said the girl she can't say no It's against her culture. Rob. You said they have the one that I just sent you. That's it Rob Pat. Look at this poor girl Yeah, I saw the leader Pat, look at this poor girl. I saw this. Look at her. Oh, that drives me crazy.
Starting point is 01:52:33 Same show. Same show. What annoys you the most? I didn't finish my studies. She's 13 years old. Pulling out of school for a reason. Look at her. Look at her. Life ruined. Right? You can pause. Okay, and here's my thing. That actually makes it hard for me to talk. But, and I want people to understand this. This isn't, all Muslims are bad people, and I know a lot of people out there are going to get the messages and I can give a shit.
Starting point is 01:53:15 Okay, but Islam as an ideology is rooted in original texts and traditions that include extreme conditions, especially to women and children. Okay, we're not talking about people, we're talking about the foundation. All right, any time I criticize another country's leader or government, automatically I get a blanket over the entire people. Okay, but let's go to the truth. Okay, and I don't care who you are out there, if that doesn't bother you, there's something wrong with you. Okay, however you're programmed is wrong. Okay, and I'm gonna
Starting point is 01:53:45 go back to Muhammad he married Aisha when she was six okay constantly the marriage when she was nine okay Muhammad was in his 50s I do believe Rob you could fact-check me from if I'm wrong that's not fringe that's mainstream Islamic teaching okay and it's still being justified just today as you're seeing right there in that freaking video with the girl whose life is destroyed for the rest of her life, alright? Now fast forward to this, and we're seeing this, where they're ruined. She can't say no because it's against her culture, okay? And then, when you're talking about these cities and all this stuff, Pat, slowly but surely, that culture is shaped in Sharia law, which is based in the Quran and the Hadiths, H-A-D-I-T-H-S, same text, okay? And let's walk through the Sharia law because guys at the end of the day say what you want, look what's happening in Europe, okay? Look
Starting point is 01:54:31 what's happening, Sharia law, child marriage in many Islamic countries, ready? Child marriage is legal, you guys are seeing it, Iran, Yemen, Afghanistan, parts of Nigeria, why? Because the Prophet did, that's the defense, okay? Under Sh Sharia law a woman's testimony in court is worth half of a man's all right marital rape is not recognized as a crime a Apostasy leaving Islam is punishable by death blasts for me against the prophet Muhammad You'll get killed remember who was the guy Tom that drew the thing about? Muhammad Charlie Hebdo you have and what happened to that guy? Magazine and yeah homosexuality punishable by death and it's like these aren't isolated drew the thing about Muhammad, Charlie Hebdo. And what happened to that guy? Magazine.
Starting point is 01:55:05 And yeah, homosexuality, punishment by death. And it's like, these aren't isolated events anymore. It's systemic, it's rooted in doctrine, and it's protected by law, and repeated generation after generation. So to answer your question, Pat, that right there drives me insane. You know, remember we talked about,
Starting point is 01:55:21 and you challenged us a lot, and you always questioned, and you asked, what sword are you willing to die on? what sort are you willing to die on? What hill are you willing to die on that right there drives me insane? It disgusts me and I'll be damned me to hell if any Religion or anybody's gonna cut try to come to this country and do that shit and try to change This country and shift it to what that is because that can't happen How do you fight it because when you watch this clip from ten years ago?
Starting point is 01:55:46 Rob if you want to play this clip for the audience to see, this is a 10 years ago from UAE Foreign Minister H.H. Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed warned Europe of what would have happened if they continued down their path of suicidal altruism by inviting dangerous fanatics into their nations. They should have listened. This is 10 years ago, folks. Watch this. Go forward. that we will see far more radical extremists and terrorists coming out of Europe because of lack of decision making, trying to be politically correct or assuming that they know the Middle East and they know Islam and they know the others far better than we do.
Starting point is 01:56:44 And I'm sorry, but that's pure ignorance. You watch this, right, and you see Tommy Robinson yesterday. He comes out of jail. First of all, Tommy Robinson doesn't look like Tommy Robinson. He looks like he hasn't shaved for a while. Here's Tommy, he's out. Right after being out of prison, you see the prison is right behind him, and he's being asked a question and look what he says. And this is in UK. It was once the financial capital of the world.
Starting point is 01:57:10 Go ahead Rob. Unfortunately, in a country that doesn't believe in free speech, being a citizen journalist, this place is an occupational hazard. It's ridiculous. 16 years ago, when I first started speaking out against Islamic rape gangs that were plaguing this country, from that point on I faced relentless attacks from the British state wielding lawfare as a weapon in order to silence me. I have never been convicted by a jury. Every one of my convictions have been handed down to me by judges. The lucky thing with this, everyone got to see the film. I have to say thank you to Elon Musk, because without X, if we didn't have X, everyone would just think I lied.
Starting point is 01:57:56 No one would have got any other narrative. Fortunately, I think 167 million people saw the truth. So that gag in order, these attempts at censorship, to silence, to cancel people, it hasn't worked. You've attempted to look up the truth and that truth has been echoed around the entire globe. It couldn't have been any more successful. I knew exactly what I was doing when I released the video. And he's run across outside that train. Still, by the way, got out pat for talking the shit that he got it went in For any still talking it Adam your thoughts
Starting point is 01:58:30 Well, I only have one person to blame for what's going on in the world right now and that is white Christian tolerance I'll say that again white Christian tolerance is going to be the death of not only the world, but the potential Christianity. What do I mean by that? Because if you think that this is just an Israel and radical extremist problem, you're thinking way too small. Because they're saying it out loud. They're coming after every single major Christian city around the world, starting with London, Paris,
Starting point is 01:59:16 Sydney, Toronto, New York, LA, the list goes on. And because of Christian tolerance, they allow it to happen. And then you start locking up people who start talking about it. Hey maybe we don't want Islamic rape gangs in our country. What? You're going to jail. So Israel just happens to be on the front lines of this but you know who knows this better than anybody? Who are the people that have already banned the Muslim Brotherhood and the radical extremists and jihadists from their country? Well, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Egypt, Jordan, the list goes on. Because they know that that radical ideology is bad for society.
Starting point is 01:59:59 So the last but not least point is this. What is going on in America today is downstream from what is happening in Europe already. Be very fearful of white young college kids in kafias. They used to say, you know, the classic phrase, if you're young and you're not a liberal, you have no heart. And if you're older and if you're not a conservative, then you don't have any brain.
Starting point is 02:00:23 These days, the new phrase is this, if you're not a conservative, then you don't have any brain these days. The new phrase is this. If you're young in America, you have no brain. If you go to college because you end up becoming a woke, progressive, socialist, anti-American, gay for Gaza, jihadist. That is the new liberal in America. And it's up to us to fight it. Tom final thoughts on you. You know what, I agree with Adam
Starting point is 02:00:48 and I wouldn't racialize it and I'm not saying racism but he made a racial specific about white Christian. It is basically the lukewarm, if you wanna live life as a lukewarm church, you're gonna have lukewarm results. In the book of Revelation, there is a list of churches, read read the first four chapters that tells you about the churches that get it wrong and the consequences of getting it Wrong and right now you will find places in Africa and in places in Asia where Missionaries and the the word of God is spreading and spreading very rapidly and then you'll find The word of God is spreading and spreading very rapidly and then you'll find
Starting point is 02:01:30 Incomfortable western civilization, so I won't say white because it's more than just white but i'm i'm i'm amplifying Adam's point and adding my own clarity to it not denying his point at all because I think the core of his point is right The lukewarm church is going to get you can get more expect more of what you accept and that and I think that's that's where it's going now and the lukewarm church not standing up and saying this is kind of community we want this is what we want is is going to live with the consequences and I I agree look at look at Chris Cuomo who a lot of people would say he's no friend of Christian America Wait a minute. He's Catholic and he's speaking up from liberal
Starting point is 02:02:10 New York with his family in his history And the one thing I agree that Chris said is is it okay to have an insular? Muslim community that will discriminate on housing and will just do the following things. Is that okay? He goes no, that's not okay Chris is right and it's up to where are we where Where are we standing up? And what are we accepting? And guess what you can expect more of the consequence of what you accept Yeah, maybe a question PBD, of course Because and thank you Tom for mentioning Chris Cuomo where we started this thing I actually didn't even know we were going to talk about this segment.
Starting point is 02:02:46 I, I'm in New York right now. I texted Chris Cuomo this weekend. Hey, great take just randomly. And he goes, Hey, thank you. Um, you're one of your family mottos was tolerance, but you removed it. I know we've discussed this, but I feel like it'd be very relevant to ask this question now. Why is tolerance no longer some of your family credo? Listen, this is how I judge everything. It's very simple. I'll watch an individual and I'll say, what is that sound, Rob? That is police. They must be driving by.
Starting point is 02:03:21 Okay. So I'll watch friends of mine that we, that we're doing business with or during the company. And I'll see two guys that are having lunch. And say this guy was on the right track, he was doing the right thing, and I notice he's hanging out with this person a long time. A year he's around them all the time. Life gets worse, quits the business, starts drinking, partying hardcore, gets distracted, and I realize, anytime that person is around anybody, their life gets worse. So then you'll look at certain companies, Tom, and you'll judge somebody that's with
Starting point is 02:03:54 a company, and you'll say, when I'm around that company, I just make better decisions in life. When I'm working with that company, they produce better leaders. Jack Welch was known as what? Producing great executives that everybody wanted to hire. Xerox had a reputation of what? If you worked at Xerox for five to ten years, guess what Xerox produces? Incredible salespeople.
Starting point is 02:04:16 If you go through IBM's sales system, they produce great salespeople. If you worked at Valley Total Fitness, they had an incredible sales system, combining with Tom Hopkins and all this other stuff. They learned how to sell. If you worked in certain companies, you learned how to get better with people, right? Look, it's pure results. Every community, America was founded on Christianity, okay? America, the foundation.
Starting point is 02:04:40 I'm not telling you it's 100%, you know, the debate with Thomas Jefferson, I totally get it. We can go there as well. But it was, their entire constitution is very close, what things they use from the Bible, but the main principle was conservative values and principles, Christian conservative values and principles. What do they produce and who do they attract? How many companies did they build that positively impacts around the world? How many people can come here? Who lives here? Can we attract anybody and everybody that comes here? Muslims come here.
Starting point is 02:05:10 Muslims feel safer here than a Muslim nation because opportunity is better. Okay, great. So then the argument becomes, all right, if you claim your religion is peaceful, show peace. If you claim that you guys produce better products, show what companies you produce. Show that if your community goes into a city, becomes safer, produces jobs, works with other people, does better. Show it.
Starting point is 02:05:35 Show it. Listen, a lot of people say a lot of bad things about Scientologists. A lot of people say a lot of bad things about Scientologists. And it's very easy religion to have a what-do-you-call-it, like a punching bag, taking shots at them. You know what I know about Scientologists? Any Scientologists I work with, they work their asses off. Okay? They just do.
Starting point is 02:05:56 They ask very good questions. That whole system they go through. And I know this is maybe for some people is going to be a weird analogy. They create jobs. They create jobs. They create businesses. People in that community benefit. What city in America is known for Scientology? Is it Tampa?
Starting point is 02:06:12 I think that's one of the cities that they have. Clearwater. Clearwater. Right. Guess what? There are jobs that are being created. If you do good, you do good. If you don't, you don't.
Starting point is 02:06:20 You can go and judge everything with Christians, Jews, Catholics, Muslims, Scientology, 7-day, Jehovah Witness, LDS. Go judge them. Atheists, agnostic, go judge them. What happens to those communities? If it produces results, I want more of it. You notice a pattern that you go to UK and you destroy UK? And you're changing UK and all these cities?
Starting point is 02:06:45 And you want us to sit in America and be patient and tolerant and not be speculative that what could happen to America? No, that's not going to happen here. We're going to do our part on, if you're coming here, this is America. This is the greatest country in the world and it's the last place. If we don't figure this thing out in America, everywhere across the country, you're going to have to get on that place that Elon Musk wants to go to that's living on another freaking planet to say, dude, they screwed this one up. Let's at least go to
Starting point is 02:07:13 a different planet and see what they're going to be doing with that one. No, you've got to stay strong with it. And again, I have a lot of messages that they sent to me on my neck. Can't believe you just said this. Show me communities that create jobs, businesses, and it's safe, low crime. Show me. Show me. And it will entertain it. If not, I'm sorry. You have to have a proof of your argument that you have.
Starting point is 02:07:36 And you have to show that it happens in multiple places. Not taking one of the best exceptions to the rule and send this one demo that 78 people living there and this is what's going on here. No, I'll go to the next one and tell you what's going on. So Iran, let's go to Iran, okay? So the nuclear deal with Iran. Rob, if you can tell me what page it is, I'll go straight to it. There it is.
Starting point is 02:07:56 So Iran rejects all compromise at fifth round of talks with what U.S. begin. This is a bribe art story, Rob. I think you've got a video on this one here. If can play this clip here's President Trump watch this one you go for it some very good talks with Iran yesterday and today and let's see what happens but I think we could have some good news on the Iran front likewise with Hamas on the — on Gaza, we want to see if we can stop that. And Israel — we've been talking to them, and we want to see if we can stop that whole situation as quickly as possible.
Starting point is 02:08:34 But having to deal with nuclear, we've had some very, very good talks with Iran. And I don't know if I'll be telling you anything good or bad over the next two days but I have a feeling I might be telling you something good we've had some real progress serious progress. Tom thoughts? Well I think it was a very busy interview on the tarmac because this is one of our earlier stories started here too. That's right. And I think what look, the interesting thing is I was waiting for a reporter to speak up on this one for him to say is I'm not going to tell you how I'm going to do this. Waiting for that. Because our reporters just don't know how to cover foreign policy. I like what he was saying. And I think what he's got to
Starting point is 02:09:20 figure out is this red line in the sand, is how do you stop Iran from continuing their enrichment program and to build centrifuges that are going to enrich Maybe let me ask a question because it looks like you're trying to answer for 30 seconds, you haven't put your thoughts together. Here's a question for you, Tom. Do you believe you can negotiate with Iran and they are on it? How do you hold Iran accountable and they say we're not going to have a nuclear plant
Starting point is 02:09:50 here? How do you know for a fact that they're not going to do it? How do you trust them that they're not going to do it? Well first of all, the trust level with Iran is somewhere between 5% and 0%. So why should the president even attempt to negotiate with Iran? What's the benefit of negotiating with Iran? The benefit of negotiating with Iran is to let the rest of the world see what you see and let the skeptics see that you tried everything you could before you had to do something that was heavily economic
Starting point is 02:10:14 or maybe turn the, you know, have Israel do a surgical strike to go take care of the nuclear capabilities. You have to show that you tried and tried and tried and tried so you have the moral authority to go to the rest of the world and say, I did it your way. I tried it. And so I think that's my thought on that. Okay. So you think there's no way they're going to be honest with us because right now when you think about Israel, Rob, if you go online and you type in, how many nuclear weapons do Iran and Israel have? It'll say zero, right?
Starting point is 02:10:53 But majority of the world believes that both Israel and Iran have nuclear capabilities, okay? Whether they have it or not and it's documented or not, who knows? Israel weapons, Iran capabilities. They have 90 of them, but Iran is, you know, well, they don't have any, but they do, they may not, all this other stuff. Iran doesn't publicly acknowledge possessing nuclear weapons or not. But I'm convinced they have it. I'm convinced they have it and it's somewhere there.
Starting point is 02:11:20 Why would you negotiate with them? So it's only for public to show the world that we are willing to work with them to see how far along we can go with them, with Iran. Adam, what is your position here with negotiating with Iran? This is a fifth round and the president says I'm going to have some good news. What could actually be good news that you would believe? That you would believe Iran's side? I don't agree with you, PB PBD that Iran already has a nuclear weapon. In my opinion, I could be wrong, the reason I'm so adamant about that is because I firmly believe if they had a weapon they will use it and make
Starting point is 02:11:56 everybody including Israel and anyone in that surrounding area go meet Allah. So it's no secret that nuclear physicists based in Iran go missing for some convenient reason because Israel believes in self-perseverance and eliminating the threat before it actually occurs. So every single one of these major components has an agenda. Israel wants a nuclear weapon to either A, use it, or B, hold the world hostage. The United States under Trump has a simple goal of getting a good deal. Don't forget there was a bad deal in place under Obama that Trump reversed, and now they're trying to come up with a framework of a good deal, whatever that means. And then Israel, who's basically looking at the Iran and the world jockey for a position. And Israel is basically just saying, we don't want to be nuclear annihilated.
Starting point is 02:12:54 And in my opinion, Israel could potentially strike first if they truly think that Iran actually has a nuclear weapon. Because Iran would use it based on all estimations. Yeah, I'm convinced they have it. I'm convinced they have it. I'm convinced North Korea has them and hasn't used it. You said that I think last week that you disagree, but at the same time, you believe if Iran had it, they would attack.
Starting point is 02:13:22 Yeah. Why do you think, why are you so convinced that they have it already? Yeah, so listen, you know, I'm on a flight here and on a flight here, we're in a place that's only eight of us. Seven is people with me. One person says they're very successful man.
Starting point is 02:13:38 He starts bragging about his grandfather and he and I just become close friends like this on a flight and we talk for an hour and a half to the point where my son is like that, can you stop talking to him and talk to me? And it was such an awesome conversation. And he starts telling me the traditions he had since he was four years old. His grandfather was a very successful man, died at the age of 102, net worth of $3.5-4 billion, super successful.
Starting point is 02:14:02 And there's a quote about his profile that I'm reading that says, this was a man that if you saw him on the outside, he was tough as nails, but if you were able to get all the way deep down inside, he was a teddy bear. And he has a very softer side. Many didn't see few saw him. Then there is the opposite. There are those who act hard on the outside, but deep down inside they're scared shitless and they don't want to do anything. I think that's exactly what the current regime in Iran is.
Starting point is 02:14:29 I think deep down inside they're scared. I think deep down inside they want to act tough in front of their people to win over their people that they have, but deep, deep, deep inside they are so afraid of what could happen to them. What could happen if they lose it all, all of a sudden? What could happen if people figure out how much they're abusing them, how much money they're stealing from them? What would really happen?
Starting point is 02:14:50 And I'm talking Khomeini and all the way at the top, whatever names you want to talk about, I'm talking about all of them. They're worried about that. What if they find out Iran could be a power player around the world if we open up the market? I just don't believe what's going to happen. Look, there's a video clip many years ago of Mike Wallace sitting down with the Shah. And they're talking and Mike Wallace says, do you know how the CIA from America views you?
Starting point is 02:15:17 Because you know, what do most people say after Mossadegh? They say the Shah is who's puppet. They say the Shah is the West's puppet. He's a puppet of the West. He's is who's puppet. They say the Shah is the West's puppet. He's a puppet of the West. He's a West's puppet. Look how the U.S. is CIA profiling Shah because the Shah says, you can tell me what they think about me. Have you seen this clip before?
Starting point is 02:15:34 Watch this clip here. Watch this clip here. It's fascinating. Go back a little bit, Rob. We missed the first second. Please. Yeah, go for it are you aware of a CIA psychological profile about you sir no I must admit that I first time I hear that truly yes what is it would you be
Starting point is 02:15:54 interested in hearing what the CIA had to say yes why not really yes why not I have your permission you won't send me to the SAVAK if I ask? Listen. No, I would spare you this terrible ordeal of going through torture. This secret study portrays the Shah as a brilliant but dangerous megalomaniac who is likely to pursue his own aims in disregard of US interests. So how could I be your man, your agent? How do you mean? Safeguarding. interests. So how could I be your man, your agent? How do you mean?
Starting point is 02:16:25 Safeguarding your interests. Well it says that the Shah is an uncertain ally. His dreams of glory are... Oh, ah, I know. So you would like me to be your soot? Do you want me to go on or shall I forget about this? Well, some funny points, why not? Just being brutally honest, why not? Just being brutally honest. You watch this video, Rob, can you show this is the Shah and guess who's in the back seat? Who do you think? This is a roller coaster ride.
Starting point is 02:16:57 The Shah and the Queen are in the front. Guess who's getting in the back seat? Play the clip and you'll see in a second. There's the Shah of Iran and his pretty empress in the front seat and Walt Disney and the pretty hostess in the back. Walt Disney in the back. What a random group of people. Let me show you. Pause it. Okay, you know what this is like?
Starting point is 02:17:32 This is like showing, Rob, this is like showing, go to show the picture of Khamenei, go to show the current president of Iran or the rule, you know, Khamenei, if you can type in. This is like showing Khomeini right now gets in a roller coaster ride with his wife and Bob Iger and his wife. Well, okay, well there goes the hat. How do you do that? Oh, that's so bad.
Starting point is 02:18:00 How do you do that today? It's not happening. But the point is, Iranians have to realize what Iranians had at one point was absolutely amazing. The access to resources, the place where everybody wanted to visit, a place where everybody could go and have some business as well, advertise as well. Watch this clip here, showing women in different countries in the 70s versus today. This is Iraqi women in the 70s.
Starting point is 02:18:24 Go ahead and play the clip. Who looks happier? Them? No. Who looks happier? Them. Egyptian women, 50s or them? No.
Starting point is 02:18:33 Lower the audio a little bit, Rob, so we don't get any of this stuff. Look at this one. Algerian woman, 1970, today. And this continues. Syrian woman, 1973, today. Who looks happier? Actually, logical question. Iranian woman in the 70s today Iranian woman 2023 get Afghan woman 1958 versus today
Starting point is 02:18:52 No, who looks happier well, I really can't you know I think would be unfair to judge this because you can't see their faces anymore. So, how do you know if they're happy? I wouldn't know listen this message is being given more to the Iranian people than anything else That you have to realize when you have something with beautiful natural resources, incredible history. I've been to a lot of incredible museums in my life. Truly, a lot of incredible museums in my life. Some incredible places in Greece.
Starting point is 02:19:17 You go to Acropolis, magical. I don't know if you've been. Of course we're going to go. When you see it, Adam, you've been to Acropolis, it's something else. Right, Tom? You've been to Acropolis, something else something else. Tom, you've been to Acropolis, it's something else. You go and see where people fought. Alexander the Great. You go to Italy, beautiful places.
Starting point is 02:19:31 You're in Venice, the cathedrals they built. Christopher Columbus walked here and all this other stuff. All these museums in America, nothing comes close to the museums you go to in Iran. I mean obviously I've not been to Israel, so I can't sit there, I look forward to going to Israel to see where Jesus walked and kind of go through, see a lot of those things, we'll probably be doing that here in the next couple years. I can't wait to do that. But Iran, nothing like seeing the history of Iran.
Starting point is 02:20:01 There's something very unique about it. And I'd like to see very early in the next few years, future looks bright, I'd like to do a hat like this with Iran on the side instead of Florida because you know right now Florida was first place, second was Texas, third was California, fourth was New York, fourth was last place, right? Florida was first place. I'd like to do these hats, except you know what I want these hats to be? To put the map of Iran. I'd love to go and have that except you know what I want these hats to be? To put the map of Iran. Okay?
Starting point is 02:20:26 I'd love to go and have that experience. Imagine we go with a big group of people together to go and travel there and have some kebab, have some lochmi kebab, have some liver, you know, gigaad, like with the seasoning on top of it, with the, you know, what do you call it, the corn, with the salt, and oh my God, and listening to all the Delamiche is for home bad. God. I mean you see Tom behind. It's just shaking his head. It's good. Just go like this Ten my top five yeah, I know it is in your top five, but that is that is the part that I'd like to see happen and You know who's capable of making this happen?
Starting point is 02:21:03 It's hard the the Iranian people, as well as a little bit of help. The Queen the other day said, it's very obvious we're not getting any help from President Trump to help Iran be free again. That comment was made. That the current administration's not helping that happen. So the difference between the Queen and that guy?
Starting point is 02:21:22 Farah, Farah, there's only one, Farah. Yep, and what's her relationship with that guy? She was the wife of the Shah of Iran. Okay, so Pat, does this hold? Is she still alive? Yeah, she is. So question, because historically you could kind of help me out.
Starting point is 02:21:37 So the switch from the leader that made that happen, who got him out and put in the new one? Is it the people or was it... Oh, that's a very complicated story that a lot of people... Benny, where you been? Hold on, but hold on. So Pat, so do the people have the power right now, the people to change that guy? Like how we did, how America did with Trump winning in 2016, then what happened in 2020, and then
Starting point is 02:22:06 coming back and the people are like, no, no, we don't give a damn what you guys are trying to say what we want. This is what we want. Let me tell you what they have. You ready? These are two things they got. These two things. This is what they have.
Starting point is 02:22:18 They have a phone with a camera and they got a mic. This is the most important weapon Iranians have. There's not a more important weapon than this. It's called a phone record post. It's called a mic. Talk into it and get louder and louder and louder. There's plenty of them that are doing it and expose. In Brazil, there's a young man named Nicolas Ferreira. The guy is an absolute incredible communicator who is, I think he got the most views last year on Instagram for a couple of, I think he has the most viewed video of the year, if I'm not mistaken.
Starting point is 02:22:54 This guy's an absolute amazing young stud that'll be a president of Brazil probably by 2036, around that time. The younger generation of Iran needs to get louder and louder and louder and louder and louder until you cannot arrest a thousand different kids in a bunch of different regions, whether they're here, whether they're there, whether they're in Dubai, whether they're anywhere around the world that they left, they got to get vocal to the point that you can't go kill everybody. What are you going to do? You're going to kill 5,000 people in 300 different locations?
Starting point is 02:23:21 You can't do that. Then everyone's going to know what the hell you're all about and it's out. But they got to use these two weapons. Let them use all the other weapons, you can't do that. Then everyone's going to know what the hell you're all about and it's out. But they've got to use these two weapons. Let them use all the other weapons, you use these two weapons. And it's going to take a level of courage. I think this next generation, we're going to see some heroes in Iran we've never seen before who are going to go into history books of bringing peace in the Middle East, of truly bringing peace in the Middle East.
Starting point is 02:23:42 The kind of peace that this man, Muad'Da Zash Shepalavi, had in Iran pre-1979 when it was free. But that's going to take a while. But those two weapons are available to everybody. You know, we accidentally started, some guy who's a fan of Ayatollah Tameh starts an Instagram account called VTFarzi. Okay, and if you go to VTFarzi, we don't do this. Just so you know this, if you go to VT Farsead, Rob, you gotta put VT Farsead together. Yeah, put VT Farsead together and look how he does it. I don't even know how he does it, by the way. And it gets millions of views, okay? Can you go to the Reels, Rob?
Starting point is 02:24:15 Go to the Reels if it shows up. Go to the Reels that he's got. He's got the top three pinned over there. Go to, say, the first one. Whichever one that they translate my voice Let's see if this is the one go ahead I'm to you up for the way you're on a couple of bad as in real of a head to me So I'm gonna die again fine father should be family But by the end of the share it can't you honey bad as in the law was a money shot me who?
Starting point is 02:24:39 Nanko's canine father got his arse at a factor motor budget machine Faqat do tizharzat afakoramotu vajahmishin Evil America, listen carefully This is the code for our operation These are words from our famous Allah We can pause it here But this is the power today There's a couple media companies that did it right Use these two weapons Use these two weapons. Use these two weapons you got.
Starting point is 02:25:07 Use them accordingly. Unite, find each other, get loud, create groups, become first start small, local, then go regional, then go national, then go international, then create big telegram groups. It's already been done, by the way. It's already been done, but a big part of it is who's going to get the credit, who's going to get the credit, who's going to get the credit, who's going to get the credit. You want freedom is what you want. I don't care who gets the credit.
Starting point is 02:25:27 You just want to make sure that freedom happens there. But eventually, God willing, this will happen and it will actually make the world a safer place for a lot of other people. Anyways, we are at the end of the podcast. And we've been going for quite some time here, Tom. And Adam, originally we were a little bit worried with you because when you first came on, you know, I don't know if we were able to cut worried with you because when you first came on, I don't know if we were able to cut it or not, Adam was watching some inappropriate videos.
Starting point is 02:25:50 Isn't this what's telling me? Why are you watching videos like that? You're 46, 45. Sorry for watching CNN, PBD. That's what we're talking about. Why would you watch that? But no, let us, we are right now out of the country. And you know what, Rob, I think showing that, do we show that we're working on something massive

Has this been in ideation mode for about a year and a half, two years? I think it's probably honestly two years. Two years, I think it is, yeah.
