Starting point is 00:00:00 Sufferings, it's your boy Marty Bent here to introduce this rip with Ed Dowd. Some annual check-in with the man who's running the numbers on the COVID vaccine rollout and the ill effects it is having on individuals' health around the world. Update, the numbers have only gotten worse.
Starting point is 00:00:26 We jump into all of that and more, particularly his backing and involvement with Bobby Kennedy's campaign for president here in the United States, why he's backing him, what his platform is and how we can get away from the clown world.
Starting point is 00:00:42 The clown world's only getting more insane by the day. I should never have called Pete Clown World two summers ago. It's literally two years ago. It's only gotten significantly more insane since then before we jump into the sponsors have to read the top four boost of the week from rip 431 bitcoin privacy and the pay join dev kit with dan gould
Starting point is 00:01:07 at blockchain bug 5000 sats pdk ldk bdk tools galore add pdk to zeus i'll make sure to relay the message to evan and the team at zeus at lone star 5000 sats might we see bitcoin core 25.0.n from now to infinity I'm not sure didn't catch that one Matthew93 1000 sats, thanks for the signal
Starting point is 00:01:33 and blockchain bug coming in at number 4 and number 1 500 sats, laughing, negativity look into river laughing emoji I don't know what that means but speaking of river, this report was brought to you by river last few months have shown
Starting point is 00:01:49 It's really hard to find a reliable Bitcoin partner, Bitcoin exchange partner in the space with prime trust blowing up, not really even blowing up, just committing overt fraud and them being a third party dependency for a lot of exchanges in the space is highlighting the need for a company that went the hard route and built their own infrastructure and actually controls their own destiny. that is river if you dca dollar cost average using river you're not going to pay any fees other exchanges have high spreads and high fees so you can fix that by setting up auto dca on river you know that if you hold bitcoin on rivers exchange it is backed one-to-one fully reserved in multi-sig cold storage however they highly encourage you to take self-custody and they will teach you how to do that they have plenty of literature on their site to navigate you as you take Bitcoin off their exchange and into your own possession. River, they're doing it the right way, the hard way, but it ensures that you have a good experience. And if you ever
Starting point is 00:02:54 have any questions and you're a US customer, they do have phone lines. You can call them and they'll answer the phone and they'll answer your question. So go to river.com slash TFTC, set up an account today. Pick a Bitcoin partner that's doing it the right way. River.com slash TFTC. Speaking of Bitcoin partners that do it the right way, another one is Unchained. Unchained, like River, has been doing it the right way for many years. And they went the hard route of building their own custody infrastructure. And they're a Bitcoin financial services company that really builds their products from the native multi-sig primitives that exist in Bitcoin's protocol. So they have their vault product, which is a two or three multisig wallet where you hold
Starting point is 00:03:41 two keys, Unchain holds one. You have full control over your Bitcoin as long as you have those two keys. If you're ever in a pinch, Unchain is there to be the second in this two or three multisig quorum. And then on top of that, two or three multisig primitive, they've built products. They have their lending desk where you can put Bitcoin up as collateral to get USD liquidity. You hold one key in that quorum. Unchained holds one, then Kingdom Trust holds the other. Since you have a key in this quorum, you can see your Bitcoin throughout the duration of your loan. It's not being lent out or rehypothecated on the backend. It is there once you pay your loan. Plus the interest, you're going to get your Bitcoin back. They have Bitcoin trading desk as well. You set
Starting point is 00:04:22 up your vault. You can buy Bitcoin in bulk using Unchained's trading desk. It goes straight from that buy to your vault. Unchained never holds it. You buy Bitcoin and it gets sent straight to your vault. They also have an IRA product if you want an IRA and the ability to hold your own keys.
Starting point is 00:04:42 You've won a Bitcoin IRA with the ability to hold your own keys. Unchained has that as well. So go check it all out at unchained.com. Go to unchained.com slash consultation. Set up a consultation with their team at the very least. You don't have to ape into Unchained.
Starting point is 00:04:56 you should reach out to them. Tell them the TFTC sent you and learn more about what they're building because I think they're building a generational business there at Unchained. This report was also brought to you by good friends at CrowdHealth. CrowdHealth is here to help you reimagine how you pay for your healthcare. It's not health insurance. Health insurance is notoriously opaque, expensive, and impersonal. CrowdHealth is flipping the script. Again, it's not health insurance. You pay a monthly fee. If you ever have a medical event, you go to crowd health you say hey i'm about to go to the doctor they say okay give us the bill after that you give them the bill they go to the doctor they negotiate the price lower and then you
Starting point is 00:05:33 pay five hundred dollars of that bill and the rest gets crowdfunded by the rest of the crowd health community which is built of relatively healthy people so the overall health care cost for the crowd health community is lower it's a beautiful thing you have a personal health advocate as well so they're going to walk you through the process of getting the bill negotiating, explain how they negotiate the doctor to get the bill lower, and then work to ensure that your bill gets crowdfunded. On top of that, they can find doctors for you. They have a list of doctors. If you're looking for like-minded doctors, Bitcoiner doctors, doctors that understand that preventative healthcare in the form of good exercise and diet
Starting point is 00:06:15 is the way to go and not to jack you up with pharmaceuticals. CrowdHealth has a roster of those doctors. So go to joincrowdhealth.com slash TFTC and sign up today. Last but not least, this report was brought to you by our good friends at Bitcoin Talent Co. Bitcoin Talent Co., like all the companies that we like to shield here that are related to Bitcoin, is a Bitcoin company built by Bitcoiners for Bitcoiners. It's a recruiting firm that really understands Bitcoin at all layers of the stack.
Starting point is 00:06:43 They understand the protocol layer, multi-sig, lightning, mining. If you're a company looking to hire talent in the space, you're looking to hit your growth phase, you're looking for the best talent in the world, go set up a profile and get onboarded with Bitcoin Talent Co. They have a background with Uber. Andy, the co-founder, started Uber's growth team and took them from, I believe, below 100 people to beyond 10,000. He knows what he's doing. He knows how to find the best talent. So if you're looking for a CFO, a COO, or just an SDR, go get set up with Bitcoin Talent Co. They'll understand your needs and they'll go find you the talent. Alternatively, if you're in big
Starting point is 00:07:31 tech big finance banking whatever it may be engineering and you want to get into bitcoin and you have no way to get into the industry go set up a profile we have bitcoin talent co and they'll bring you the bitcoin companies are looking to hire and are looking for what you have so go to bitcoin talent.co tell them that tftc sent you and enjoy this rip with ed dowd the legend you've had a dynamic where money's become freer than free if you talk about a fed just gone nuts all all the central banks going nuts so it's all acting like safe haven i believe that in a world where central bankers are tripping over themselves to devalue their currency bitcoin wins in the world fiat currencies bitcoin is the victor i mean that's part of the bull case for bitcoin if
Starting point is 00:08:28 you're not paying attention you probably should be probably should be head out welcome back to the show good to be here thank you for having me on again how does it feel to be a nazi living in hawaii apparently that's the new thing uh msnbc put out an article today saying that uh working out is far right being healthy is far right yeah it isn't i mean that's what we were just discussing like the level of clown world is increasing i made the the very large mistake of of calling p clown world i believe two summers ago uh we're at the point where msnbc is saying that working out is is far right nazi activity and that's a i think the one thing is like i it's getting so crazy at that level it's driving the question of how many people still believe their bullshit that they're
Starting point is 00:09:25 feeding i don't think a lot i don't think a lot i think these articles are designed for the permanent victim class mentality where people want to be patted on the head for their miserable lives and there's a certain percentage of the population that wants to hear this but the the majority of us don't want to hear these negative uh lies i mean the gas lighting is it's at the point where it's it's insane you know a couple weeks ago that white house administration the white house put out something about blocking out the sun uh saying that that would help global warming obviously the people the chemtrail people have been saying this for years that that's what they're doing anyways and they're just admitting to it now and then of course i just you know put out a tweet
Starting point is 00:10:10 saying hey a hand goes up in the back of the class hey what about massive crop failures and starvation i mean these simple you know you don't even need to be a scientist to just think oh we dim the sun we have crop failures billions of people die and of course all the respondents in my tweet thread there said oh that's the plan so we're literally at clown world levels everywhere well i've actually been on this tip for about a year now because bill gates was pushing it this time last year it really does feel like a large humiliation ritual especially when you consider the fact that a lot of the climate hysterics particularly with power whether it be bill gates or the biden administration are pushing us toward a grid system built predominantly
Starting point is 00:10:56 on solar power it's really interesting that they want to transition us to solar grids and then blot out the sun it really doesn't make any sense it makes no sense and a lot of this uh these power failures are due to how the electrical grid system operates. And when you get rid of coal and fossil fuels and you switch to wind and solar, you have something that's called baseload and peaker capacity. So they could take care of the baseload in a normal energy usage day, but there are hot days where air conditioning goes on and cold days where people turn on the heat higher. And during those times, you need peakers, usually coal-based peakers. I used to be an electric utility analyst, so I can speak to this. And you need that peaker capacity to keep the
Starting point is 00:11:50 lights on. So all these rolling blackouts, which they're blaming on global warming, are actually by design. I mean, you can't make this up. That's why California has blackouts all the time and tells you to buy Teslas. And then of course you can't charge them. Yeah, don't plug your Tesla in overnight. We've got a rolling brown outs here. Now this is a big fight. I've been fighting within the Bitcoin mining industry
Starting point is 00:12:15 because Bitcoin mining as a dispatchable load and interruptible load can really help out grid systems during peak demand and miners can just turn off and deliver that electricity back to the grid. But one part of the narrative that many miners have got caught on and I think is a misstep is they're like, yeah, we're going to incentivize the build out of more wind and solar because we can be that dispatchable load for them. And I'm like, it doesn't make any sense. You should be pushing nuclear and natural gas and just build out capacity for those fuel sources as much as you can mine with the excess capacity during times of low demand and then sell it back to the grid during peak demand. The other thing about coal, they put in scrubbers years ago that are quite good, that don't vomit the pollution they used to into the air.
Starting point is 00:13:09 The big problem with coal is dirt mining and, of course, devastating certain portions of the earth. But in terms of the air pollution, they've done a phenomenal job of cutting a lot of that out. So it's it's more political than it is like a reality of coal polluted polluting like it used to. It just doesn't. No, it's we need more energy, energy and electricity production correlates very tightly with human flourishing. And around, funnily enough, 1971, the Henry Adams curve flatlined once we started printing fiat money out of thin air and not investing in critical energy infrastructure. I have hope. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:13:56 Look, the fiat system allowed these circus wars to go on overseas, which are nothing more than conduits to grift with your friends in the military industrial complex. And so we, you know, Bobby Kennedy talks about this. We spent all this treasure overseas. Our roads are crumbling. Our electric grid is crumbling. Our school system is a joke. So we have not invested in the infrastructure of this country.
Starting point is 00:14:21 Had we done that, we'd be singing a different tune right now. But, you know, the fiat system has enabled war and grift and an ecosystem around which people make tons of money keeping that system rolling. And that's what Trump tried to fight when he got there. He mis-executed. He didn't get the right personnel in there
Starting point is 00:14:40 he was deceived in many ways but you know we're hopeful bobby can figure it out you know if he can get the democratic nomination i mean it seems like it's desperately needed to get fixed i'm not sure i'm pretty i'm i'm gonna assume that all the max blumenthal uh testimony in front of the un the other week where they they found the receipts of a lot of the money that the government has given ukraine to bolster their war efforts against russia and it's nauseating it's disgusting if those receipts are true how much money is just being funneled to special interest over there well so what do we spend like like almost a trillion dollars how much did we give them like 800 billion some some nonsensical number i might be misquoting there but it's a lot of money
Starting point is 00:15:29 and there was recently reports of ammunition shortages in the ukraine so clearly it's not going towards ammunition or munitions so where's that money going who knows yeah yeah i guess we could start there i mean bobby kennedy is making a big splash in the mainstream right now i think his strategy of going to podcasters like rogan and uh david betman uh is really good and he's getting a lot of attention that's the big question will the democrats actually have debates and allow there to be a primary process that would allow him to get the nomination you know i'm i'm just hopeful that the conversation changes and uh i joined the campaign because of different conversations that were you know uh before bobby got into it not really talked about but he's
Starting point is 00:16:22 forcing the injection of these conversations i think they're net net good for the country i'm hopeful that he can get the nomination but obviously the dnc is a mafia and they'll do everything in their power to uh make sure that doesn't happen but you know uh it's early days it's it's july uh the campaign in four days raised like four million dollars or three and a half million dollars to meet their goal and they overshot the goal by a million four and so you You know, we think that this is a grassroots effort. This kind of echoes what Trump did in 2016. You know, Trump, you know, had his shot on goal.
Starting point is 00:17:00 So, like, Bobby's the real anti-Saxon candidate at the moment. Yeah, it reminds me a lot of Trump in 2015, where everybody was like, there's no chance in hell that he's going to get a nomination, let alone the presidential, and he's going to win the election. And there's a lot of people saying the same things with RFK right now. It's like, ah, I don't know. There's a lot of good momentum going on here. And like you said, he's bringing up conversations that people desperately want brought up in the mainstream and particularly around like the COVID vaccine and everything that happened around that, which you've we have discussed throughout the years here on this show.
Starting point is 00:17:43 But there's definitely people who are like, all right, like it's time we talk about this stuff. He's talking about it. and he doesn't always bring it up it's people asking him about it and people seem to breeze responding like thank you for bringing this up we need to uh not just sweep this under the rug because things are going terribly awry and you've been documenting this for years wrote the book about it um and it seems like the data is only getting worse that's why we wanted to catch up last time we spoke was january of this year for fast forward six months and the data only seems to be getting worse when yeah i think i think i think i said on your show as we roll
Starting point is 00:18:23 through time i'm only going to be proven more right and that's the case i mean i the u.s disability data for june came out on friday uh it went up 870 857 000 in the month of june broke out to a new high if you look if you look at a stuff if it looks if you look i know you're a bitcoin guy so pretend it's a bitcoin chart it's a breakout it's accelerating and you know that's not a good thing and so we broke out to new highs employed men and employed women broke out to new highs with disabilities if you look you don't need any math expertise you can look at the slope of the uh the lines the slope of the men and women who are employed is way steeper than the slope of the general u.s population so you know it's just it's absurd that this is not a
Starting point is 00:19:10 national security concern at this point but the good news is i don't know if you noticed i don't if you saw the tweet. I put it out. I didn't even mention the vax. I just said bad news. Disability went to new all-time highs. And then a lot of people came in to comment on how I lied. And it's just data. It's great. It's just the data speaks for itself now. I don't even need to mention the vaccine. And then Bobby Kennedy retweeted it. He made a comment on it. I think only as time goes on, it's going to get worse. I mean, the excess deaths was a big deal, But they're a small number compared to the disabilities and injuries that we have going on, the lost work time data that we put out. We're going to drop a report this week.
Starting point is 00:19:54 It's the U.K. PIP data. It's called the Personal Independence Payment System. It's their disability system. And so we're going to show different causes now. We're now dipping down. We've got a database that shows a phenomenal black swan rise in different body system claims. and then you can drill down into the causes. And when we drop this, you know, we're not doctors,
Starting point is 00:20:19 so we're going to enlist the help of doctors to help us with this because let's say we're wrong, it's not the vaccine. At the very least, it needs to be discussed because it's exploding. It's multiple black swan events and different causes in the UK. We suspect that that data, if we had a data set in the US we could access, would be very similar to what we're seeing in the overall US disability numbers. So this this needs to be addressed. Doctors need to start to respond to this. Regulators need to say to us, why aren't they responding to clear signals that we're seeing statistically that I'm sure they're seeing? So this this is all coming out. I believe that the event horizon on vaccine awareness is is is in acceleration mode and it's going to kind of have a tipping point sometime in the fall, I think.
Starting point is 00:21:04 yeah and so with this uk pip data what are a lot of the ailments that people are suffering hematology is a body system and within that there's a bunch of causes that whole system is up 550 percent in 2022 versus trendline so it went up in 21 accelerated to absurd heights in 2022 uh that's about uh 25 standard deviations on a monthly basis that's that's that's a joke that's three standard deviations on wall street's like retro six is a black swan anything above six is like gravy so this is 25 standard deviations it's a joke and there's other things we're going to report mood disorders are up huge uh you know muscular skeletal issues all sorts of inflammatory issues are up huge and there's something i'm going to hold back until we drop the report that's going
Starting point is 00:22:00 to shock people and it shouldn't be happening it's gonna there needs to be an explanation as to why it's going on so we'll hopefully drop it this wednesday but it's it's this the the data's as as yuri one of my partners said they can't run from the data they can't run from this data they just can't run from it yeah i mean when you talk about the concept of turbo cancer too that's another we were talking about like reports of yeah they started coming later they started coming in 22 we're seeing three and four standard deviation uh cancers now um so that that's that's unfortunately we think a medium term to long-term effect and it started to go off the rails in 21 a little bit and it's only accelerating in 22 so three to four standard deviations in all sorts
Starting point is 00:22:49 of cancers yeah when we reach out event horizon when we get to the tipping point maybe in fall what do you think especially like an election season if the dnc doesn't let debates happen if they don't let like a true primary happen biden was the one driving a lot of the vaccine mandates i mean trump on the other side seems like he's going to be a shoo-in for the republican side he initiated operation warp speed still is taking credit for the vaccine to this day like are we going to be stuck in a position where and just nothing's going to get done because the two parties involved don't want to solve the problem because they were the big drivers of it in the first place look if if it's a contest between trump and biden it's a no-brainer i'm
Starting point is 00:23:39 voting trump but as of this moment i'm backing bobby because bobby's out in front on the vaccine issue and trump is not and he has to come clean admit he made a mistake ask for forgiveness and move on the the current stance he has is untenable to me and i can't support that obviously if it's bought at trump and biden i have to go with trump but right now i can't yeah do you think bobby would run as an independent if you didn't get in don't know i'm not uh it's probably best they don't include me in those discussions yeah yeah gonna be uh interesting i guess that's the other thing too is i really liked to see bobby really changing the narrative and getting these conversations
Starting point is 00:24:24 out there supporting bitcoin at the bitcoin conference this year um i always fall back to my first principles which is like we're never going to solve this problem via the incumbent political apparatus like we really yes bobby's campaign may be a grassroots movement but we need like a grassroots movement that is external to the political system that got us in this problem in the first place. Yeah. And we're still expecting a recession to really materialize this quarter, next quarter, and first quarter.
Starting point is 00:24:55 The stock market is absurdly struggling to convince people there's a new bull market. I suspect that we'll be cascading a lot lower by October, November this year. People are going to be freaking out. So, you know, I never get into specific timing. When this goes, it's going to go big and fast. And we're close. So unfortunately, as we approach the event horizon, I suspect it's going to be so bad that they're going to need distractions in the media and at the White House to kind of take the eyeball off of the vaccine event horizon and the financial calamity that's coming. So, you know, look, I'll just use a very simple example. And I avoided talking about the issue because it's a non-issue for me. But the submarine issue, that was a story. The news cycle ran for a week on that.
Starting point is 00:25:51 They knew on Sunday that it had imploded and they were all dead. They withheld that information to keep the story alive to distract from the Hunter Biden fiasco that was going on at the time. So I don't put it above the government, the U.S. government, to try to distract us from the narratives that are coming. My fear is that it has to be of a nature that's so big that it terrifies people. And that could be war, false flag. I don't know what it is, but I'm looking for it. And whatever appears in the fall, I'll be very suspicious and apply my critical thinking skills to determine whether or not it was a manufactured event or just, you know, whatever. I got my money on aliens.
Starting point is 00:26:37 They're really creasing the aliens. Well, you know, look, I've been watching the media and I'm a financial analyst and I look for tells. And this these stories they've been talking about have been seeding the public mind for about a year. Now we had the Las Vegas nonsense with the alien in someone's backyard. And there's all sorts of indications that that's on the table. And, you know, look, if they could convince the globe that there's an alien threat, think about the amount of money they could justify spending to keep this current system afloat. The system, as you and I have talked about, needs constant credit creation. So when you print the dollar, you create a debt and it needs constant credit creation.
Starting point is 00:27:21 And, you know, you know, if you wanted to keep this current system alive, unlimited spending on the imminent alien threat would be a bonanza spending spree we've never seen before. So I wouldn't put it past them. I don't think it's going to fly. That would be ludicrous if they tried it. Well, separating ourselves from the COVID stuff and just looking purely at the numbers on the debt side, after the debt ceiling impasse was fixed, I guess you could say that. Fixed is not the right word. They just kicked the can down the road further than they ever have. Well, what's interesting about that is there's no cap on- Exactly.
Starting point is 00:28:02 And I believe it's uncapped because they know an economic crisis is coming and the government needs dry powder to spend our way out of it and kickstart the credit system again with spending. So I think Speaker McCarthy was pulled aside. This is speculation on my part, but there was a sense of betrayal in the GOP when he did this. I think he basically got tapped and said, we've got something on the horizon and we're going to need all the free gunpowder that we can have. And I think that's why they did it. Yeah, I mean, they added a trillion dollars in debt in less than a month right after they raised the ceiling. And then you factor in the disability numbers that just came out. That problem is only going to be exacerbated, especially if the stock market tanks, capital gains taxes aren't there.
Starting point is 00:28:55 next year they're already pretty bad this year i mean tax receipts are down bad um this year like it's they're going to have to do something insane like it is the debt is reaching like hockey stick levels like we're i feel like on the debt side of things we've already entered that event horizon yeah no it's so you know after after covid was a war if you think about you know how governments inflate their way out of uh debt problems war is one of them covid was a war We were going into a global economic collapse in 2019, and then out of nowhere, COVID came to save us, and they were able to spend and print like drunken sailors. So that was a war. So forget about thinking about it as a virus.
Starting point is 00:29:37 It was a war. They printed 65% money supply year-over-year increase, the fastest money supply printing ever on record. And then that printing then showed up in government spending. That's how the debt was created. And global governments around the world spent on the COVID care, whatever their version of the COVID CARES Act was. And it was like it was a drunken spending spree. We know about all the billionaires that became even bigger billionaires, the small minority who benefited from this. And it was a joke.
Starting point is 00:30:14 And here we are. And that sugar high is wearing off. Money supply year-over-year growth rate has now gone negative, and we've had bank failures and economic activities screeching to a halt. Real estate activity, Airbnb activity, manufacturing activity, and consumers are extended as far as they can be on their credit card. Housing is unaffordable. Autos are unaffordable. So what comes next? Home prices have to go lower. Car prices have to go lower. Lots of stuff's going on.
Starting point is 00:30:49 So we see a deflationary setup here. And then they're going to have to respond and print more and create more debt and spend more. That's kind of we're in this endless cycle. And, you know, I did a presentation in April talking about the stimulus between crises and the time between crises. There used to be nine years, then it became six, then it's now two. COVID was two years ago when they did all the two and a half years ago. Now we're already at crisis time. So the system is naturally reaching its kind of, you know, event horizon where, you know, they can no longer keep the game going because every time you try to inflate your way out, you create a deflationary whipsaw on the other side. It's kind of, it's what's classically called the liquidity trap. And that's, I think we're getting closer and closer to that point.
Starting point is 00:31:41 I mean, that's like the Weimar scenario where they oscillated violently between deflation and inflation on the road to hyperinflation in Weimar Republic. And that's the other scary thing about what's going on right now. Like, this is global. If you look over, like, the UK, they're still hitting all-time highs or new highs in inflation month over month. germany as bankruptcy rates hitting an all-time high you have this tectonic shift going on on the global stage with bricks countries trying to team up like is this a global contagion when this does at the fan yeah so we don't know we don't know where it's going to start is japan uh do we have a currency crisis in japan does the hong kong dollar d peg does the chinese won
Starting point is 00:32:29 unpeg do we lose you know that that's that's going to be the release valve on all this is currency it's always been currency so something's coming um the current you know uh feeling in in in the us is everything's fine even though the economic numbers uh if you if you look underneath them are bad and only because the stock market indices have kind of recovered somewhat from their october low what people don't understand about the stock market it's basically been five six stocks that that have driven the whole F&P 500 up. And the average stock is down on the year. So, you know, most people don't own those five stocks.
Starting point is 00:33:07 So I've seen how this ends. It's called breadth. Breadth is horrendous. These five stocks are going to come back to earth. And when they do, it's going to unleash a whole kind of deleveraging system, margin call in what's going on in the U.S. equity markets. And that's coming soon. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:25 so how do we make how do we make sure they don't have the ability to keep kicking the can down the road like it does like i can feel it it's weird obviously it's not everybody that's on board there is that subset of the population who are eternal victims who just want to be confirmed that they're not the reason for their strife in life but it does feel like there's this growing bubbling sort of momentum of people who have become completely disgruntled with the state of our institutions. I mean, if you look at poll numbers for trust in the government, trust in the banking system, trust in the healthcare system, they're reaching all-time lows. And I think that's a problem that we have as a society broadly is there's many people, most are probably silent,
Starting point is 00:34:20 But they recognize that these systemic problems exist and they're only getting worse. And it feels like there's recognition there, but there's also a paralysis on the back end where they're like, what the hell do we do? It's almost like a bit of Stockholm syndrome where they recognize this is a big problem, but they view the only way to fix this is the government and the central banks teaming up to give us more medicine, if you will, more heroin. Well, the good news is I think more and more people are kind of coming around to your point of view and my point of view. But it's slow, but it's accelerating. The vaccine issue for me, I think, is a big issue because, you know, once we reach that tipping point, there's going to be so much distrust that people are going to red pill themselves. You know, we've all gone through our lives where when you first learn how the world really works, you try to convince people of what you know, and they look at you like you're crazy. So you stop doing that and you kind of do the give them drips, dribs and drabs as they come to the realization.
Starting point is 00:35:19 And I think a lot of people, the COVID has red pilled a lot of people that were previously unaware as to what's going on. The vaccine issue, once this comes out, is going to cause and force a lot of people to really start asking questions and go down some true rabbit holes and some false rabbit holes. I mean, right now there's a lot of people going down all sorts of crazy rabbit holes. And I'm glad that they're just, you know, curious, but I think there's a grand awakening slowly emerging. The problem is, you're right. So, like, what do we do? Well, I'm doing what I can do and, you know, hoping for the best. But, you know, I'm not under any illusions that, you know, I'm potentially of the opinion I may have zero impact on waking people up.
Starting point is 00:36:06 I'm trying my best. Everybody has, you know, can do their own thing. They can pick an issue, whether it's, you know, end the Fed or make people aware of the vaccines or, you know, educate someone on globally what's going on with the dollar, what have you. Everybody can take action. But what's coming is beyond, I think, everyone's control, beyond the central bankers and politicians' control, our control. So there's going to be a lot of chaos. The question is, what do we do in the chaos? we don't have fear and we try to create if it looks like the system is going to
Starting point is 00:36:41 implode we create new systems if we can save the system you know by doing things legally and lawfully we'll try but you got to have two ways of thinking about this trying to fix the system as it is or be ready to start a new one and I'm doing both yeah have your thoughts on Bitcoin evolved at all throughout the years since the last time we spoke I guess well I've never I've never been anti-bitcoin uh you know once we get through the vaccine stuff maybe raise money for our hedge fund Carlos and Yuri are smart uh physicists they were doing bitcoin and crypto projects before all this they put them on hold so we'll probably get involved in that arena at some point as well I'm not the guy to
Starting point is 00:37:25 talk about it because my expertise is low but I'll market the message once they tell me what we're doing well i you know i think you're a bitcoin or i mean you're obviously not anti-bitcoin but i think i mean that's why i do this show that's why i am a partner at a venture fund solely focused on investing in bitcoin infrastructure because that's truly what we believe is fix the money fix the world all these problems right go down the line from the health care system it all stems from fiat the ability to print money throw to universities to do these studies to validate the fda and their approval of these drugs to do all the research on the drugs to fund high fructose corn syrup production in the american farmland to make us all unhealthy you go down
Starting point is 00:38:15 the line like education just letting woke insane people take over the education system just give give people a bunch of free money to go to these universities with no accountability it all stems from the money that's again why i do what i do is because i think yeah there may not be any silver bullets but i think the most potent bullet we have is to take away their ability to control the money is he frozen we lost ed he's frozen right now the ecam cia agent is not what is talking about bitcoin apparently. I'm back. You froze on me. Ah, you froze on us. We didn't know what was going on there. Where did I lose you? Or where did you lose me? We're talking about Bitcoin. And
Starting point is 00:39:07 look, I think you nailed it. Money and central banking fiat has caused a lot of problems. And I say in a lot of my speeches, all the things you see going on, everything that's happening lies at the feet of the central bankers and the politicians, and everything else is just an excuse to take the attention away from them, bottom line. And Bitcoin is definitely something that's going to survive and stay there. You and I have talked about how, and I believe you don't believe in just crypto in general and all the crypto coin scams, there's definitely been a movement to delegitimize Bitcoin via a lot of these scams. And I do believe that there was a potential blow off top in Bitcoin that was
Starting point is 00:40:01 orchestrated to then cause people to lose money and lose faith in it. But, you know, it also could have been just pure speculation, but I like to be suspicious. I mean, Tom Brady and Gisele lost 48 million dollars investing in FTX public sees that they're like oh god Tom Brady can get duped this is definitely a scam yeah yeah what's interesting is all the money the money the politicians got they don't have to give back like they did in the Madoff scam if you made money and other people lost you had to give money back so they could distribute it the politicians don't seem to want to be able to want to give their FTX money back to help those who got defrauded yeah i mean that's a big discussion going on behind the scenes particularly
Starting point is 00:40:47 for like venture funds who are in deals with ftx's venture arm a lot of companies got a lot of money from ftx on the venture side of things and that's people are like oh is there going to be clawbacks but it doesn't seem like there are going to be which i don't know how i feel about that um for one you feel for the companies uh they couldn't have known the extent of the fraud themselves and obviously the the ftx users like you obviously feel for them too for just getting absolutely rugged and i would actually argue ftx prevented the price from going even higher because they were they weren't even buying the bitcoin they were telling their customers they were going to buy
Starting point is 00:41:30 they were supposed to have something like eight billion dollars worth of bitcoin on on their balance sheet they had six million uh when all of a sudden oh my what a scam you can tell uh it looks like this this character is protected because i think what i mean they're not even they dropped some charges on them didn't they they uh i think they decided they they levied more charges on them after the initial charges and they were going to uh use um they were going to essentially uh his upcoming court cases to cover all the charges but i think they decided to split them up into two different um trials so i think that was a bit of a and i got caught by that too a bit of a fake news where okay i got it i i didn't retweet it
Starting point is 00:42:19 anything i unless i've come to the conclusion unless i've got something myself it's hard to know what the hell's real even even when we see stuff that we like you know that fits our narrative you got to be careful oh yeah that's the the mode you have to operate from everything's fake on the internet these days they uh yeah i mean the paris riots people were sharing videos like fast and the furious saying that rioters were i saw that i saw that the only thing that interest interested me about the paris riots was the fact that uh they did shut down the internet i thought that was verified so that was curious and a lot my daughter was in france uh on her senior uh trip with her girlfriends after graduation from high school i asked her i was concerned and i said hey what's
Starting point is 00:43:05 going on she said there's nothing going on but she was in the southern part of france so i mean but i also heard from a lot of people there was not you know if you looked at twitter you assumed france was burning um i think it was probably hyped up on on twitter but they did shut down the internet they did they did censor so that was interesting i don't know there was a reason for that yeah and it seems like they have a law going into effect at the end of august around social media accounts and what you can and can't post but no i did the same thing i had a neighbor who was over in paris while this is all going on i texted him i was like joe you all right over there he's like yeah there's nothing going on it's yes nothing noticeable here
Starting point is 00:43:46 it's almost look if i had to be a conspiracy theorist or a critical thinker let's say critical thinker it's almost like they created the appearance of riots so they could shut down the internet and have an excuse for it for something for whatever reason they need to shut it down for which they're not telling us yeah yeah it is things are getting weird particularly Like France, Macron, not backing the U.S. and their efforts in Ukraine. It seems like there's a bit of a fracturing of the unified front. It's like G8, U.N. nations, if you will. Well, look, the dollar as the reserve currency is a big deal for us.
Starting point is 00:44:34 And I suspect it's not going to go gently into the night. and the military industrial apparatus, the intelligence agencies, any leader who gets out of line, they'll be the subject of a deal they can't refuse. Either you sign your name or your brains and blood are going to be on a piece of paper you don't want to sign. I mean, look what happened to Libya. Yeah, Qaddafi wanted to start the gold-backed currency and they took him out. Iraq didn't have a central bank.
Starting point is 00:45:17 Syria doesn't have a central bank. Anybody that we seem to have enemies, Iran, they don't seem to have central banks that have debt-based fiat systems. They're just normal central banks that issue state currency. Yeah, Qaddafi went in the worst way. A knife up the butthole. Yeah, that was horrendous. not the way to go hillary clinton was happy about it though we came we saw he died yeah no she's she's a wonderful human being yeah um bring it back to bobby though one thing
Starting point is 00:45:48 again that's got me excited about his campaign i must uh admit i've never voted i'm one of those voting harder does not change things but uh the trend or the the theme that i've noticed that he's running with is really giving power back to states letting states make decisions for themselves which as a bitcoiner really gets me excited because that's always been my thesis as it pertains to bitcoin and whether or not it will be attacked by the federal government is all going to come down to if the states actually stick up for it and make their own laws and their own decisions and tell the federal government, hey, leave us alone. And it seems like Bobby has been running with that and is like, hey, we don't want to tell
Starting point is 00:46:36 you what to do. We really want to create an environment where states have autonomy and the ability to make decisions for themselves, because at the end of the day, that's how this country was founded. We are a republic, even though people forget that. Um, and I think that in terms of how do we fix these systemic problems, uh, in our society, particularly in the U S I think that's a great way to do it. It's just say, Hey, let's get more distributed, give power back to the States. Um, not try to have one behemoth fixed all the problems.
Starting point is 00:47:05 Let's have people in charge, uh, near the people that they represent actually make decisions for those people and not have everything try to be solved by the people in DC. Right. And look, the money that D.C. gives these states comes with strings attached. And, you know, Hawaii was one of the more draconian on the vaccine issue, primarily because we're a state that gets more money from the federal government than we submit in tax receipts. And we also have a big military industrial complex presence in Pearl Harbor. And so, you know, when we got the money from the government, they were like, you're going to do what we say. And then, you know, the governor and the mayors around Hawaii did what they were told to do. It comes with strings attached, this power and money. Tonya, you're a Bitcoiner, you don't know it.
Starting point is 00:48:01 I've been pushing the idea and trying to mean the reality of Bitcoin mining permanent funds into existence just using the Alaskan oil permanent fund as an example. Like energy-rich states, Wyoming, Texas, Oklahoma, Kentucky, Tennessee, just issue municipal bonds, raise cash, get some mining infrastructure partner with a private mining company to operate it. You pay back the bonds plus the interest, and you roll all the profits into a permanent fund that gives you the power to tell the federal government, hey, we don't need that money with your strings attached anymore. Yeah, if you have resources, it's – look, fiat money is – what really backs fiat money is commodities at its core, resources that then get manufactured into widgets and things. People forget that. I mean, if you're a resource-rich country, you can literally write your own ticket if you're smart about it. But, you know, you might get a visit from the CIA and, you know, you might get assassinated. That's the problem because, you know, the system is – it's a control system.
Starting point is 00:49:06 The dollar-swift system, the petrodollar, it's a control system. And it's, you know, he who controls the debt controls the conflict, controls everything. Yeah. Do you think we can get rid of the three-letter agency? They seem to be really running the show behind the scenes. Oh, we lost him again. As soon as we talk about the CIA, talk about Bitcoin. There we go.
Starting point is 00:49:36 Yeah, Internet gremlin stopping us just as I'm about to ask the question. Like, do you think we can take control of these three-letter agencies and reel them in? Because they really seem to be driving a lot of the fuckery. in the world today and potentially driving this the government let's talk about bobby kennedy and his candidacy he's talked about what happened to his uncle and his father and he's not pulling any punches we all know that the intelligence agencies are a permanent bureaucracy there's you know there's a revolving door between private industry and the government and i i i think i think they're out of control and i think there's black ops budgets we don't
Starting point is 00:50:17 know about there's black holes we don't see that get money gets spent on whatever god knows whatever agendas um i'll just use one example that i know for like you don't need to be a rocket scientist to figure this out before before we went into afghanistan afghanistan was um responsible for like 15 of the total poppy production for heroin once we got in there it became 90 90 so what do was going on there and we also we've all seen the pictures of the troops guarding the poppy fields or at least walking through them looking like they're guarding the poppy fields so it doesn't you don't need to be you don't need to be i don't even need to be in the room to notice that's odd we went from 15 market share in afghanistan to 90 once we got there hmm that's curious and we
Starting point is 00:51:02 were there for 20 years what the hell was going on there for 20 years yeah i mean you go iran contra stuff they were doing in Nicaragua I mean I don't think this has ever been confirmed but using the Mexican drug cartels to get crack cocaine into the inner cities here I mean going all the way back MKUltra, Operation Paperclip
Starting point is 00:51:24 Mockingbird in the CIA particularly wasn't there a scandal in the Obama administration with Eric Holder and something to do with firearms I forget the name of the scandal but there was some some fuckery going on with the firearms uh the atf and and and like you know running it through
Starting point is 00:51:44 drug cartel it was just crazy i i don't know but this has been going on forever uh these dark shadowy systems that we know nothing about that are just run amok yeah and then what was the pentagon audit shortfall something like eight trillion dollars three trillion or eight trillion it was like two trillion back in 2001 which is it was a ton of money back then i think rumsfeld mentioned that on the senate floor on the 10th september 10th of 2001 and then 9-11 happened and we never heard about that again yeah yeah and then last year last year that bumped up like eight trillion i believe that's that's the thing that's in my mind like as humans are we just destined to be subjected to
Starting point is 00:52:40 these power hungry forces whether it be the three-letter agencies large governments like are we just doomed to allowing those psychopaths to get control power and really manipulate our lives behind the scenes well look government has monopoly on violence and government at its core is an agreement to set laws in place so that you know as a as a property owner you don't get raided by the bandits so it's a protection racket at its when you think about it's a protection racket and unfortunately the protection racket has has some utility but it's grown to a point now where you know they wanted to uh basically sell us back our freedoms via a jab uh and quarterly uh injections with past passport cards that that's the absurdity of the growth of the
Starting point is 00:53:29 government and you know you gotta understand the growth of the government as a percent of gdp has gone from something like 15 80 years ago to like as of covid it got as high as 43 percent of the gdp so when the government becomes that big it literally needs to feed on it on the populace to continue this uh this crazy uh you know growth of whatever they're trying to do and it's you know there are a lot of people that you know support what the government does because their paycheck comes from the government yeah and if we do get past this event horizon and we do figure all this shit out like what do you think we can do on the back end if we are successfully able to get these nefarious forces out of the way get all this money printing out of our lives like how i mean
Starting point is 00:54:16 looking around now like what we're doing now you're in hawaii i'm in new jersey we're doing pretty incredible things like it's all in spite of everything we've discussed up to this point like what can we unleash if those forces weren't a burden on us right now oh i think humanity is going to have a renaissance but to get to the renaissance we're going to go through chaos and i don't know how long it is is that two years a year 10 years i mean historically when you look at these big turning points in generational histories you know the fourth turning these types of analyses it takes a long time so you know i've been telling people to just kind of strap on your hard hat uh live your life don't live in fear uh
Starting point is 00:54:57 do what you can and build networks of like-minded people and you have community because you know some of the best things in life are free the friendships i've made in the last two years from like-minded individuals is fantastic i i kind of didn't expect that i just thought i was going out on a limb but now you know i didn't realize how awake so many people are until i found them and you know people like you and others and we're building communities and it's going to be it's going to be great but it's not going to be easy and more and more people are coming to our side i mean we're we're the you know we're about freedom we're about integrity we're about truth and those who live in in the uh the old world who buy the nonce the mainstream nonsense
Starting point is 00:55:37 are basically being told that working out is a far-right activity. So that's where we are. I mean, we've gotten to the point where, you know, you have to make a choice. You either come over to our side or live in a clown world. And if you want to live in a clown world, it's not detrimental to your health with these vaccines. And now don't eat eggs because apparently if you eat a quarter of an egg a day, your chance of heart attack increases.
Starting point is 00:56:02 I mean, these bogus studies, nonsense, you know, things are coming out now that uh 16 million americans are at risk of heart attack because they exercise too much okay yeah turbo cancer is springing because people are getting too much sun exposure too much vitamin d it's right the new york times told us to hide from the sun this summer because uh it's killing us okay sure it is yeah luckily people aren't listening fourth of july on the beaches in in new jersey was jam-packed tens of thousands of people blissfully enjoying time with their family that's the other thing i think strong families too is one thing this country needs to get back to and something i've focused very heavily on here is being a good father to my two
Starting point is 00:56:46 sons good husband to my wife and really trying to propagate that message to others like that's what you should focus on is building strong families it's something that this country has really gotten very far away from and i think again if you're talking about first principles building blocks to really fight back against these evil forces like really having a strong nuclear family and that extended family beyond that is really important something i feel very lucky and fortunate not going to say i'm privileged but um i come from a big irish catholic family out of philadelphia a lot of aunts and uncles a lot of cousins were all really close And I think that's made me a much better person.
Starting point is 00:57:26 And I would like to see that extended to become like a growing trend in the U.S. generally. That's what's great about Hawaii. Hawaii is like 25 years behind culturally. And the local Hawaiians are super into family. Family is super important to them. They have strong bonds. I mean, the community has issues like all communities. But, I mean, they do family better than they call us Haole's.
Starting point is 00:57:51 That's white people. They do family better than us. And, you know, in many ways, you know, everyone's an auntie and an uncle. And, you know, kids are not raised by just two people. They're raised by extended family as well, but they're extended family. They're not, you know, they're not strangers. They're not the state. And it's a great, I agree with you wholeheartedly.
Starting point is 00:58:12 In college, I majored in finance and anthropology. Anthropology is a study of cultures. and the the cultural system that works is a strong monogamous family unit polyamory is a strategy culturally do you can you name the uh polyamorous culture that took over the world no you can't because it's a shit show yeah i mean that's what that's why rome fell it's funny this all rhymes to why my republic fell they all became obsessed with sex and polyamory and quickly devolved not too long after that that that trend did not last many generations before their societies collapsed no it's like the great like again i'm gonna harp on my own family but
Starting point is 00:58:56 it's like a beautiful thing we get to the beach i've got 26 cousins between us we probably have 20 kids already we just plop them all in the circle try to keep them in the circle one wanders somebody just picks them up brings them back to the circle then you see them playing and growing up together and really setting that example and hoping to pass it to them because that's when you're mentioning like we don't know how long it's going to take before we get on the other side of this insanity that we're experiencing that's like when i think about i've got a three and a one-year-old it's like all right how do i prep these guys for whatever happens hopefully we get on the other side quicker uh but if it does take a while like what are the
Starting point is 00:59:43 like first principles that you can instill in them to make sure that they grow up and live a good life it all comes back to family yeah back to family and if you if you're raising boys self-control and if you're raising women uh you know authenticity and you know those are the things we need to go back to the men men need more self-control they need to stop uh chasing women and women need to stop chasing men and you know think about you know making yourself as excellent as possible before you meet you meet your mate you know this this culture of pleasure it doesn't end well i you know i'm on hawaii there's some people that pursue that i've watched their uh lives in in snaring drama and a morass and uh just disaster yeah i feel very fortunate
Starting point is 01:00:32 i got married at 25 right before all the dating apps came out it's just watching people are playing that game it's bad i mean particularly it's just pure market incentives like the more options you have there's always going to be a better option out there another swipe and you're going to find the one the mechanics that those apps really drive home are terrible psychologically and for the possibility of actually like settling down and finding somebody that you want to start a family and a life with because there's always another option out there you know i'm not on i'm single i've been divorced for five years unfortunately but i'm not on the dating apps i'll never go on one i meet people organically and i ask them out
Starting point is 01:01:15 for a date or two and you know if there if there's no fit i move on they move on and it's interesting women don't get asked out anymore so when you ask them out they usually say yes because they're just shocked the old yeah just go out do it the old-fashioned way meet your uh meet your wife at the beach library the bar if you're drinking the bar you know wherever but organically and you you know you develop a rapport first and then you ask them out they say no so what you know this these dating apps are just i i they crack me out i watch my i watch some of my millennial friends and most of them are deleting them now because it's it they're realizing what a joke it is and they're meeting women organically and uh they're having success
Starting point is 01:02:01 yeah that's another like underlying trend that's picking up is gen z particularly turning away from all that stuff and trying to lower their body count um because they're really realizing it just doesn't lead to happiness at the end of the day i'm actually becoming more and more convinced that arranged marriages are are somewhat good like not arranged like at like the age of 14 but um trying to pair your children with uh people that you know you know their parents at least you know they're good people they instilled good values in their children um not fully convinced yet but i do see the value in parents helping guide their their children towards like a certain subset of individuals
Starting point is 01:02:45 to start a life with us my the mother of my children is an excellent mother and she had a strategy when we were raising our kids where you know she would view the parents and what they were like when my child would bring someone home and she had a very clever strategy of uh eventually maneuvering those children out of my children's lives as the parents were a shit show so she i give her credit she was deft at that at uh making certain uh certain children disappear not not you know because my kids were too young to set up the playdates so it was a great strategy it worked so just deny the playdates that's the strategy well you know like just kind of you know didn't have time just you know make sure they're always at our house and monitor and then eventually
Starting point is 01:03:28 just kind of just fade away kind of like ghosting a you know ghosting someone uh after a couple dates you go you ghost a play date i guess this is good to know it's a good strategy i'm gonna employ um this has been great it's always great catching up what um what should we leave with here why should why should people trust bobby kennedy well so you know look i'll just give you anecdote uh i know bobby i've broke bread with him and his wife um he wrote the forward to my book and on the first call when i you know they asked me to join an exploratory committee you know i'm not i'm not traditionally a democrat but bobby's really not a traditional democrat and he's platform is freedom first so that interested me on the first call we had some poll people
Starting point is 01:04:18 they were talking about what you can and can't talk about and he basically said i'm not leading from behind with polls i'm leading with my values and he's done that i mean i don't think he's listened to any of the poll people he just he speaks his truth that's what we need so that's why i trust him and you look if bobby were to go sideways you know i'll you know i'll know what it looks like but there's no indication and do i agree with them on every issue no but the issues are so bad right now that we could i call them like high class issue problems where like in the In the old days, you could debate back and forth. Something like, you know, he's an environmental lawyer.
Starting point is 01:04:57 Does he believe that climate change is real? He knows it's been co-opted and it's being used for nefarious purposes. Does he believe corporations pollute? Sure, he does. So you don't have to agree on every issue with the guy, but you can certainly trust that he's going to tell you where he stands. Yeah. I mean, if anything, that's the breath of fresh air,
Starting point is 01:05:18 somebody who's actually saying what they believe saying it confidently trying to bring truth back despite what the polls say despite what the polls say he's gonna say it and he's he's lead it's called being a leader you lead when you say things that are uncomfortable when uh they need to be said and you don't care what uh you know how popular your opinion is you just say it and that's what he does yeah i mean he's leaning into a good strategy too like these long form podcasts that really allow you to get your your views out there and elaborate on them really brings it back to like the days of really long debates that presidential candidates used to have over 150 years ago but those mediums and those types of conversations i think really
Starting point is 01:06:02 give you a glimpse of like who the man is behind the campaign and that's actually again as just as an objective outside observer and somebody who doesn't vote i think that's a good strategy because his competition joe biden would never go in a three hour long podcast uncensored being able to to take question or having the podcast are able to ask any question they want what's great about bobby is like a lot of people have the opinion they've read the mainstream news and they say oh he's a wackadoo then they hear one podcast they hear him speak and they hear him speak eloquently and nuanced about a variety of facts that he has at the at his fingertips and then they look at the current you know guy in the white house and they just they come to
Starting point is 01:06:48 conclusion this is a man who has a brain who has thought about it and is very nuanced and once they hear him speak they change their minds because you know if you're just you know surfing mainstream media headlines that your impression is he's whacked and he's far from whack he's very nuanced and smart and has a lot of evidence to back what he's saying yeah yeah again breath of fresh air ed um if you make it on the campaign trail you make it to texas let me know obviously i'm in jersey now but i will be in texas and staying you're in austin right yeah all right if i get if i get to austin i'll look you up for sure all right you have my number look me up go enjoy i got your number go enjoy go enjoy your nazi
Starting point is 01:07:36 lifestyle of working we'll definitely do this again at some point soon i guess if i was a good citizen i'd get my vaccine card and my krispy kreme donut and eat it every day yeah well you get your krispy kreme donut after you get your free shake shack you gotta eat the fries and the burger first you get the shake track and the fries you can't make up i mean i don't know why more and more people are running over to our side i'll never and by the way our side isn't red team or blue team it's team humanity and common sense i mean this is this is this is the easiest sell i've ever had to make in my life i don't i the fact that i'm even you know uh low-key celebrity it boggles my mind because i'm just saying stuff that like i thought anybody would say
Starting point is 01:08:22 i don't even i don't even understand it well thank you for doing it because that's it's what's really needed right now is like an I am Spartacus moment where people just say what they know to be true and others have been holding it in and it gives them the confidence then say, all right, I'm not crazy. Get on board. Correct. All right. All right.
Starting point is 01:08:46 I'm Spartacus. You're Spartacus. No, I am Spartacus. I want everybody on the internet to tweet out, I am Spartacus. Yes. let's get it started freaks yes yeah that's the hashtag I am Spartacus
Starting point is 01:09:03 peace and love everybody enjoy your day okay
