Starting point is 00:00:00 There must be more to life than having everything. Yes, there is, but I won't tell you what it is. Nor will I, since I also know what it is. We have certain things in common, Jeffrey. Yes, we do. Come to think of it. Enigmas never age. If you noticed that? As a matter of fact, it was clear to me the last time I saw you. A pal is a wonderful.
Starting point is 00:00:30 thing. Happy birthday. And may every day be another wonderful secret. That's what people are saying. A lot of people are saying. The reviews are coming in hot. The reviews are coming in better than Colbert's bad news. I'll tell you that. The reviews are coming in better than Kobe's bad news. Colbert's bad news.
Starting point is 00:01:12 I'll tell you that. Honestly, well, we'll get into it. Yeah. But things are going to be coming up, Colbert, I think. Yeah. We've got so much. This is a jam-packed episode. This is like Halloween if you're a kid.
Starting point is 00:01:24 We're going to be talking a lot about Trump's war on the mainstream media and how he's he's kind of been waging that for a long time. but now, yeah, he's got, he's not... He's fully winning. Natural lot of wins. Yeah, he's... I mean, the guy just... And he's out for blood.
Starting point is 00:01:35 He can't stop winning. He's like a hammerhead shark. He smells the blood and he's in there. So if you're at the beach with your girlfriend and she's, you know... Being annoyed. Keep her out of the water. Oh. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:47 You know what I'm saying? Go to the Ben and Emile show. Go to Ben and Emiel Show.com where you'll get your first seven days for free. We got a great banger of a bonus today. And while you're at it, smash that thumbs up button. And, smash it. Smash it. Smash it. Let's kick it off with a little something, a little light. Let's say a little light for one second. For just one second. Can we have one second of lightness?
Starting point is 00:02:10 The Coldplay CEO. Beautiful. Which is kind of funny that the whole thing is he's called the Coldplay CEO when he's the company, some fuck-ass company called Astronomer. Some are calling it the greatest marketing stunt ever because I didn't even know that Astronomer was creating AI solutions for whatever. for Enterprise at the speed of light? Yeah. What does that any of that shit mean? Come on, man.
Starting point is 00:02:36 You know astronomer. Astronomer. Get out of here. Tell me what the logline does. It's the best place to run Apache Airflow. What the fuck is Apache Airflow? I don't know. I think of a helicopter.
Starting point is 00:02:48 Generative AI breakthroughs. Don't ship without orchestration. This is just another, this is a company that doesn't do anything and they're not real. Yeah. You might like this, though. I think this could be. good for you. Astro, the orchestration first data op platform built
Starting point is 00:03:03 on Apache Airflow empowers your team to build, run, and observe data pipelines that just work all from one place. I don't... Now, you're interested. I don't understand. You want me to email and see if we can get a license. Email him. See if we can get a license.
Starting point is 00:03:20 This poor guy, I feel bad... Listen. You feel bad for... I feel bad for both of them, because it used to be the case where you cheat on your spouse and, and it doesn't make the news and everybody in the country isn't dunking on you.
Starting point is 00:03:36 That sucks. That's the kind of thing that drives people to know themselves. It's hard for me to get it. They, you know. They had it coming. Yeah, sure. You made your bed.
Starting point is 00:03:44 You got to lie in it. In that sense, I feel bad for people who go viral for no... Remember the kid who's just sitting at a sports game and kind of had like a weird facial expression
Starting point is 00:03:53 and big hair? And then all of a sudden he's just a meme for two years. Oh, yeah, the college kid. You're like, let the kid enjoy is. Yeah. But someone who's like, hey, I used to be able to cheat in peace.
Starting point is 00:04:03 Yeah. Cheating's over. Your spouses, they have your location services. We live in a surveillance state. You better love the one you're with. Also, I mean, why are people still cheating? Just get a fucking divorce. For all we know that they...
Starting point is 00:04:21 I'm sure it's expensive for this guy. It is probably very expensive for this guy. Yeah, it's... these the best take I've seen by far is that these two played themselves
Starting point is 00:04:32 so badly oh yeah they shouldn't have reacted that had they just calmly sat there and maybe even gave a peck
Starting point is 00:04:40 yeah it would have moved on no one sits there and watches or all he had to do was take his arm he was hugging her all he had to do
Starting point is 00:04:47 was take his arms out and go whoa I'm on the jumbo tron and then that'd be it this guy would not want to be in a crisis
Starting point is 00:04:55 with this guy this is your CEO Oh. This guy folds like a napkin. Unbelievable. If he was in Dune and he put his hand in the pain box. Oh, he's test. When the Ben and Jeserator testing him, he'd be, he'd be pulling his hand out. And then he'd be getting the poison needle in the neck. I was watching Dune last night. A rewatch. Are you watching it in pieces? Yeah. I watched about 30 minutes of it. And I was ticked off because I had my dishwasher going at the same time.
Starting point is 00:05:24 I'm hearing the melodical um percussive sounds of the dishwasher and I can barely hear but maybe it sounds like that's what uh that's what chalemae's hearing as he's doing uh sand walking i it's just real fast on dune the soundtrack ruins it for me it feels like something south park would do to make fun of of them with the ha
Starting point is 00:05:48 oh sure sure the the the vocalizing give me a break that's pretty good uh anyway so that co-play, the astronomer's CEO has already stepped down. This is another thing. He folds under any pressure. He did. I'd stick around and I'd say... Suck it. I'm getting a divorce and I'm going to continue banging the head of HR. I'd say, we are the first data ops platform built on Apache Airflow. Yeah. Okay? That's what I want to talk about today. I want to talk about enough about the cheating.
Starting point is 00:06:20 Yes, I did it. But I want to talk about Apache Airflow. Yes, it was with the HR lady. and that lady and the other girl that they were with was really cute she's standing there clearly didn't you did I reach out
Starting point is 00:06:32 no didn't you to her yeah for what what would I possibly what like deemned her yeah
Starting point is 00:06:38 hey babe you have a pretty smile because she hey if you're the um associate because she apparently people
Starting point is 00:06:46 because people man that she was some new hire I think they came out and said that wasn't I don't know oh I thought because
Starting point is 00:06:54 A lot of stuff has been flying. Like, did you see how people were posting a picture of that woman and being like, and this is his wife? And it was this like... Frumpy toad? No, so, she was so hot. And everyone's like, can you believe this guy? But then very quickly, community notes was like, that's not his wife.
Starting point is 00:07:09 Everyone, relax. Well, I did, someone had found allegedly the LinkedIn profile of the other woman there. And she and the head of HR have been at, like, the head of HR has basically been taking this woman with her to. every company, it seems. Oh, interesting. So, but it is wild how quickly, I don't, it's, I'm not going to call it a sci-op or anything, but it is wild how sometimes, a few years ago, this would have just been a thing that you see, but for everybody nationwide to be collectively dunking on them and meming on them at sports games, it's just, I wonder how quickly it happened after the concert. Like,
Starting point is 00:07:53 I wonder if they, you know, if they at least, I'm sure they at least got to drive home with each other and go like, it'll probably be fine, right? Like, who's going to, you know, maybe some people. And they're like, yeah, it's a cold place. It's probably fine. You're right. Maybe there were a few co-workers there, but we'll have to send in an email. Saw a tweet that someone sent to them and they were like, okay, it's Twitter. No one. And then they're like, oh, okay. I'm not to talk to my wife. I like this. I'm going to have to talk to And then, of course, we had Like, it literally dropped, I think, yesterday.
Starting point is 00:08:31 Was it yesterday? Channel 5, Andrew, what's his name, Callahan? Mm-hmm. Is it, or are you just saying that? No, that's it. It is Callahan? That's his name. Andrew Callahan dropped his interview with Hunter Biden.
Starting point is 00:08:45 And there are some platinum nuggets in that thing. I mean, the craziest thing is, I didn't, I've never heard Hunter Biden speak. really? No, me neither. He sounds so much like Joe Biden that you can just close your eyes and listen to Joe Biden, describe how you smoke crack and you're like, oh, I'm free. I'm back. He's got all his little
Starting point is 00:09:06 he's got all his little isms. He's even got the little baldy patch on his head. I really like, I may not agree with everything about him or his family or anything like that, but as a person Hunter Biden seems like a real
Starting point is 00:09:23 good hang and a real oh i don't think anyone ever denied that oh yeah he seems like i mean i bet it was probably so fun hey you want to just rent a place in malibu get every sex worker and down over and use the water slide sure do you have any crack of course we got crack i'm gonna cook some for everybody because he cooked the crack himself apparently uh and that that was one of the the main thing so i mean it's three hours long folks if you want to check it out Check it out. Have you watched it? I've just been seeing the clips because that's... I saw a lot of clips. I will say it's easy to get on board with some of it. There's a long section of him getting really pissed at everyone who, um, who doubted Biden's cognitive abilities.
Starting point is 00:10:11 Was that when he went after Jake Tapper and... Yeah, everybody. George Clooney, uh, the pod save guys, which that was, he went after the pod save guys multiple times. I was like, okay, sick. Uh, there was a bunch of nice moments, but It was like, Hunter, come on. We're with you on all of this. This smoke and crack sounds awesome, but don't tell me your dad. From, you know, even before in 2020, we were all like, this guy is not. It was interesting hearing him try.
Starting point is 00:10:39 I mean, just today I was listening on the radio. He apparently, one of the things he said was regarding the poor debate performance from one of them. I know, but. He had said, well, you got to understand my dad was just, he had just come from like, flying around all different time zones and had probably taken an ambient to help him sleep. Yeah, he's a big game of an ambient. But so then he walked it back today and said, I didn't mean that he took it right before the debate.
Starting point is 00:11:03 I just meant that it's likely to help him fall asleep and stay on a rigid, uh, sleep schedule. That doesn't even seem like a good excuse. It's like, okay, one ambient. But if one ambient that you took to get to sleep like a night or two ago turns you into that, well, dude, have you ever taken ambient? Yeah. Oh, man. It screws me. I took one. The last time I took one was like 10 years ago and it ruined me for like five days. Also, to be fair, that was not the only moment. That was the moment everyone woke up to it. That was not the only moment where we were like, yo, he does not seem good.
Starting point is 00:11:39 Also, give Biden a glass of warm milk. He's 80. He doesn't need, put on fucking cocoa melon. Anything will make this man fall asleep. He's probably sleeping like 18 hours a day. What is he bouncing off the? walls on Air Force. One, I don't get this guy named me. Yeah, I got to get some ice cream. Like, shut the, give me a fucking break. So that part, it was like, okay, Hunter, we're with you on. Because, dude, there were, he had some real smoke for like, there were some parts where I was like, any of these people, look, I see you, John Ossif, I'm getting, I'm getting
Starting point is 00:12:15 your ads all the way over here in California. I know all you motherfuckers are like planning your little run for 2028. Start talking like, I mean, the way he. he was talking about El Salvador and getting the people back that they sent. He's like, they need to send in Marines
Starting point is 00:12:30 or tell El Salvador we're sending in Marines if they don't get every one of them back to us. And it's like, yeah, okay, I'm with you on this. Hey, game, we want to take a quick break

Starting point is 00:15:01 too much visit house of atlas dot com today trust us you'll love it as much as we did he i really liked what he had to say about uh ukraine and his paintings i didn't even see the paintings Because for those of you don't remember, there was a moment when Hunter Biden took up painting. And it's under the umbrella of his main point, which is that... A la George Bush. He had this grand point that he's always under the shadow of his father. No matter what he does, good, bad, anywhere in between. If it's good, it's just everything is always under the shadow of his dad, Joe Biden,
Starting point is 00:15:42 the former president of the United States. and career politicians. But if I start painting. And he starts talking about how, well, he's talking about how he took up painting because he's always been an artistic guy. And they played clips. Andrew Cattlinhan played clips from the Fox Newses and all the other places saying that it was a quid pro quo thing.
Starting point is 00:16:04 It was a way to like buy Curry favor with the Biden administration or with the Biden family that, oh, he's selling these paintings and like really cashing in on his name. And he's just lamenting this fact. going like, there's nothing, even something as innocuous and, like, and creative and innocent as me taking up painting was seen as this massively corrupt thing. Meanwhile, he's taking fucking, like, you know, million dollar posts in Ukraine. Well, that's what, then he talks about that. He says, I'm a Yale educated lawyer. I've had, like, decades of experience. And I didn't know this. He says, I've sat on the boards of directors of many companies. I've got also, he's like
Starting point is 00:16:44 listing all of his experience he goes and yeah they offered me a lot of money i'm gonna take it i'm gonna do this job i'm able to do it uh did they ask for any favors in return i don't remember exactly how he says it but uh i just thought it was um because then he points out rightfully so he goes you want to talk about corruption he just is he's so fucking good with his words it was really astonishing it's talking about all the things that the trump and the trump family are doing with the gold sneakers and gold watches and the fucking cryptocurrency. But no one denies that. I just think it's like, I don't think that, you know, that clears his name.
Starting point is 00:17:22 I think there's for sure some... He's kind of just putting it in a perspective. Sorry, folks, I'm a little congested today. I always kind of hate the like, yeah, but look at what he does. It's like, okay, but that doesn't absolve you. If there was like real corruption... Sure. I didn't see it more as him absolving himself.
Starting point is 00:17:41 it was more just the really, really heavy one-sided hypocrisy. Yeah. Look, Hunter just wants to paint, man. Can we let this guy... Of especially, like, right-wing media apparatus. The right-wing media apparatus going after him and going after his family for these things and just totally turning a blind eye to what's happening right now.
Starting point is 00:17:59 Oh, I mean, that's for sure. I mean... Hunter Biden, get into politics, son. We need... I mean, we're at the point now where we need a president who cusses. We need a president who cusses. We need a president who, dude, that was the one thing. I was like, okay, let's do a little, like, cuss economy here.
Starting point is 00:18:17 You know, you don't need to... Oh, was he cussing that much? Every sentence. Oh, yeah. Bullshit. Really hitting the fucking, fucking, fucking... I did like when he lambasted George Clooney. That felt good.
Starting point is 00:18:31 Just like the fucking ultra-lib. I like the pod save, bros. It was very funny. I'm just like... They're fucking junior speechwriters, and they just been milking that thing. I'm like, whoa. Yeah, wow. Good for you. Hunter, come on the show if you see this. I promise we won't stoke any of your, I mean, it was interesting when he was talking about addiction and he's like talking about crack. I need to make sure that I'm not romanticizing it because it'll be bad. Yeah, but he didn't do a great job. I'll tell you what. He was talking about it. I was like, damn, I need to smoke crack. It's, it's when you smoke it. It's when you smoke it, you get more mileage out of it. Oh, so Coke and Cracker like basically the same feeling. He's like, no. Cracks's incredible. Crack's cleaner, he sees like it's, which I was really surprised.
Starting point is 00:19:15 I'm like, damn, dude, you are doing a good job of selling crack. I know. Like, you're telling me that it's better, cleaner, more efficient. Yeah. But this is like ethanol. And he was even like, oh, free basing? No, not even close. You don't want to be smoking pure crack.
Starting point is 00:19:32 What is free basing? Free basing is basically using, you know, tinfoil or whatever to kind of heat up the cocaine. and then using a straw to kind of smoke the... I really hope YouTube doesn't come after us. Don't come after us. All right. Hey, we never even touch the stuff. I don't even know.
Starting point is 00:19:50 I'm just repeating what Hunter Biden told me. I've only tried... At one of his painting sessions. Yeah, I would buy one of his paintings. Imagine just being so high on crack and just painting. That's probably nice. Oh, God. Huge, like, huge canvas.
Starting point is 00:20:02 Yeah. My dad's the present. Like, occasionally pops in your head. My dad's the present. God damn. What is my life, man? Doesn't matter how good I do. They're never going to respect me.
Starting point is 00:20:19 Okay. So we got to talk about Trump's world. With Trump's going after, he's going after everybody. God, I was surprised how he really is winning. I kind of, yeah, I guess I tuned out a lot of the, because even the, it's funny he's even bragging about doing it. He just openly talks about it. I'll see you.
Starting point is 00:20:41 What's that? Oh, yeah. It's just like, I'll sue your ass. But the biggest one right now, the reason why we're talking about it is, it's basically the Cobre stuff, which is entwined with this whole CBS 60 Minutes lawsuit, which is then entwined with the Skydance Paramount Global Merger. And then also you're seeing him sue the Wall Street Journal over the Epstein birthday book they published, Which we're going to get to as well
Starting point is 00:21:12 I want a birthday book I mean turn 50 and maybe you'll get one And maybe you'll get a little drawing of You know me with my signature as pubes We'll get to it Yeah we'll get to it We'll explain all this So let's why don't we start with Colbert getting fired
Starting point is 00:21:25 Well I feel like just for that We need a little background of what exactly Why he made this joke Oh right See well Paramount Global You know how everyone jokes how there's basically going to be one company soon.
Starting point is 00:21:41 Yeah. And now we have maybe, I don't know, 12. Well, they're trying to make it 11. And Paramount Global, which was already formed out of the Viacom. Well, it's a mountain. That's why their logo's a mountain. Yeah. The Viacom merger.
Starting point is 00:21:55 So Paramount Global then owned basically CBS, Nickelodeon MTV, BT, CMT, Comedy Central. You can't even name them all. Oh, yeah, Comedy Central. maybe even like Pluto TV and some some other streaming huge conglomerate that is then partially owned by like national amusements which has an 80% voting stake or whatever
Starting point is 00:22:17 they want to they want to entertain this is last year they want to entertain either a sale or a merger a bunch of people are put forward whether it's Warner or Discovery or whoever Skydance emerges they want to do a merger
Starting point is 00:22:33 with Paramount Global and Skydance is owned by Larry Ellison, the second richest man in the world's son. David. David Ellison. And hats off to you, David Ellison, because when Skydance was first starting, one of their first properties was like Terminator Salvation or some shit. Like it was one of the Terminator movie.
Starting point is 00:22:52 Oh, you should be his biggest fan. Well, isn't he a big mission impossible? Yes. So they've now, Skydance started out, I felt, on Rocky Ground, and they have really found their footing. And David Ellison is a, he's a very accomplished. film and television producer, mostly films. Hey, game, we gotta take another quick break

Starting point is 00:25:22 and the merger was having delays. It's having its own delays under the Trump administration. Right. And a lot of people are talking about how, uh, they just want any obstacles to go away. So one of them is that Trump was suing, you know, long-time journalistic institution 60 minutes over... That's one hour.
Starting point is 00:25:49 Over a Kamala Harris interview because he claims they edited it, edited it, doctored it to make Kamala look better. Well, there is some truth to that. So what they, that's right. He had sued Paramount Global over the way they added it. For $10 billion. For $10 billion. And then amended it to $20 billion. Jesus Christ.
Starting point is 00:26:17 I liked it because they showed, what ended up happening was they did show, they asked her questions about Israel and they showed two different answers, one on Face the Nation and one on 60 Minutes. Yes, but not exactly. Like, it was, they were slightly different. It was kind of an ad. almost like, you ever, you ever seen a movie trailer play when you go see another movie trailer? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:39 And then that part of the trailer you saw was not in the movie. Yeah, it was not in the movie. It was kind of like that. They showed like a preview of the clip where she said, I actually have the transcript. In a preview clip that aired on Face the Nation, Harris was shown saying that the work that we have done has resulted in a number of movements in that region by Israel that were very, very much prompted by, or a result of many things, including our advocacy for what needs to happen in the region. Including our advocacy for what needs to happen in the region.
Starting point is 00:27:16 Nominy Harris. And then during the actual 60 Minutes program, in response to the same question, she was shown saying, we are not going to stop pursuing what is necessary for the United States to be clear about where we stand on the need for this war to end. So I don't think either of those make her look particularly great. which I find funny. Her answers aside, all of the, like, the head of,
Starting point is 00:27:39 I don't know, journalistic integrity, one of the producers, the head honchos at 60 minutes, back this up and they say, what we did with that is not at all out of the ordinary. It's like standard journalistic practice to edit this stuff.
Starting point is 00:27:53 And let's pull up the thing. Trump suffered, I like this, that second link right there. According to the, to the, lawsuit, Trump suffered, quote, mental anguish from that. I don't doubt it.
Starting point is 00:28:09 Yeah. And they had, his status was a content creator, which was surprising to me. His Trump's status as a content creator was also damaged by attention given to the interview, lawyers said, as it was part of their argument opposing CBS Paramount Global's effort to dismiss the president's $20 billion lawsuit. It must be so crazy to have to work. for this guy. You're his lawyer and they're like I mean, what do you want to do? Like 10 million? No, 10 billion. Actually, make it more.
Starting point is 00:28:40 20 billion. I like what he ended up. Trump's lawyer Edward Andrew Paltzik said that, quote, this led to widespread confusion and mental anguish of consumers, including plaintiffs, Donald Trump, regarding a household name of the legacy media apparently deceptively distorting its broadcast and then resisting attempts to
Starting point is 00:28:59 clear the public record. Man, oh, wait, scroll down, just a little bit more, more, more. I like this. Trump described as a media icon by his lawyers was, quote, forced to redirect significant time, money, and effort to correcting the public record. I'm saying he was forced to do, I mean, give me a break. He was suing them for $20 billion. They end up settling for $16 million just on July 2nd. Yeah, they offered $15 million. Trump said, no, I won't do any less than $25 million. And then he took 16. And then that led Colbert, because Colbert's show is owned ultimately by Paramount.
Starting point is 00:29:38 It comes to you with a heavy heart because while I was on vacation, my parent corporation, Paramount, paid Donald Trump a $16 million settlement over his 60-minute lawsuit. Now, I believe this kind of complicated financial settlement with a sitting government official has a technical name in legal circles. It's Big Fat Bride. Three days later. Before we start the show, I want to let you know something that I found out just last night. Next year will be our last season. The network will be ending the late show in May.
Starting point is 00:30:09 Oh, interesting. To be fair, they're saying it's a, they're saying it's a completely financial decision. Yeah, they're saying, it has nothing to do with his little bribe joke. Yeah. Nothing to do with the fact that Trump does hate him. Oh, hates his guts.
Starting point is 00:30:25 He's fully obviously come out on a. True social. On true social. I absolutely love that Colbert got fired. His talent was even less than his ratings. I hear Jimmy Kimmel is next has even less talent than Kobe. Greg Gutfiel is better than all
Starting point is 00:30:41 of them combined, including The Moron an NBC who ruined the once great tonight show. I love that he's calling. He doesn't even name Jimmy Fallon. He just calls him the moron of the but it's funny that he calls out Greg Gutfeld because let's play this clip from from Gutfeld
Starting point is 00:30:59 who is of course the late night king of Fox News. He's got, oh man, it's gold. It's pure gold. This is why the criticism doesn't matter to us when you call us Nazis. Nazi this, Nazi that. You know, I'm beginning to think they don't like us. You know what?
Starting point is 00:31:18 I've said this before. We need to learn from the blacks. The way they were able to remove the power from the N-word by using it. So from now on, it's what up my Nazi? Hey, what up my Nazi? Hey, what's hanging my Nazi? Nazi, please. Thank God you did a hard eye there, guys.
Starting point is 00:31:39 Oh, man. That is the worst thing I've seen in a long time. Not for me, I like that. Scrub back to her face afterward. I was sad about Colbert, but yeah, she's really pleased with herself. I was sad about Colbert, but now I'm pretty, I didn't even know about this show, and I know where I'll be tuning in. Yeah, I think actually this is.
Starting point is 00:32:00 some quality programming. That was really funny. Nazi please. Nazi please. What up my Nazi. I do want to be fair to CBS. I don't want to just say that this is fully on that. I do think there is obviously like a financial motivator here. Well, because they said that it's losing $40 to $50 million a year. However, it is the highest rated. It's actually growing and it was nominated for tons of awards. It's also weird though. So it is the highest rated one on TV. It lags it lags behind both Kimmel and Fallon when it comes to
Starting point is 00:32:31 next day stuff on YouTube. Apparently they get crushed on... Not crushed. They still do well. But it is a different... It's probably because the show sucks. I do think... You know, as someone...
Starting point is 00:32:43 Dude, it's like forever like burned in my brain. Just a guy who used to be... At least, you know, I'd have to revisit it, but you know, as a younger person, the Colbert report was obviously It seemed like this very funny, irreverent, subversive thing. And then for him to just become like King Lib
Starting point is 00:33:03 was just kind of like, dude, what are you? Yeah. Which he would, he had a lot of pushback for Trump. But so it's not only that. They were losing money, even though it was, he was number one in late night and it was growing. A lot of late night has gone. It's a dying...
Starting point is 00:33:26 Of course. Form. I mean, the show that came on after him, the late, late show, Axe and just, you know,
Starting point is 00:33:34 James Corden got the axe. That show's not coming back. And then just on other networks, everything has gone away. Conan, Amber Ruffin show, full frontal with Samantha B. All of these things.
Starting point is 00:33:48 Colbert, even, he had two shows that he was exact producing, one with Charlemagne the God and another, I think a cartoon tuning out the news or something. that was... Oh, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:57 And those had already been axed. So I do think... I forgot tuning out the news. But I find the timing very funny. The timing... Oh, the timing is super weird. I do think they're either... I think, like, either at worst, Trump asked them to do it, and they acquiesced at best...
Starting point is 00:34:15 Because they want this merger to happen. Right. At best, I think they did it knowing that Trump would be pleased. Yeah, that's true. Also, the timing is super weird. It was, uh, he made that joke, I think, on... Monday. They met once again with Brendan Carr of Trump's FCC on Tuesday, and then by like the, you know, a couple days later, he's gone. Brendan Carr, you said? Did I say it? They didn't
Starting point is 00:34:37 have time for Tony Truck? No, Tony Truck was busy. Uh, uh, it is wild because yeah, I also learned that he, for a similar amount, he sued ABC and won in December for what George Stephanopoulos had said on the air for $15 million. Yeah. Because Stephanopoulos called, was it, he called J.D. Vint? He called someone.
Starting point is 00:35:04 Is it Trump? Oh yeah, he called Trump a rapist. He brags about all this. Breaking news, we have just achieved a big and important win in our historic lawsuit against 60 minutes, CBS, and Paramount, just like ABC and George Slopidopoulos.
Starting point is 00:35:18 CBS and its corporate owners knew that they defrauded the American people and we're desperate to settle. Paramount CBS 60 Minutes have today paid $16 million in settlement, and we also anticipate receiving $20 million more from the new owners in advertising PSAs or similar program for a total of over $36 million. This is another long line of victories over the fake news media who are holding to account for their widespread fraud and deceit, the Wall Street Journal, the failing New York Times,
Starting point is 00:35:51 the Washington Post, MSDNC, CNN, and all other mainstream... He called it MSDNC? Yeah. And all other mainstream media liars are on notice that the days of them being allowed to deceive the American people are over. Thank God.
Starting point is 00:36:07 Wow, thank God. Again. Yeah. Save us. And there, I mean, there's more... In January, META agreed to pay $25 million to settle a 2021 lawsuit from Trump after the social media platform suspended his accounts following January.
Starting point is 00:36:21 and then X agreed to pay about $10 million for a similar suit in February. You got to hand it to the guy. He can litigate and he can win. Well, he's not necessarily winning. He's getting a ton of settlements, I think. But yeah, he is winning.
Starting point is 00:36:40 I mean, he's racking up, he's racking up like, I mean, we're closing out on like $100 million. And the Stephanopoulos one, I think that money is going toward his presidential library. I think a lot of these have deals like that too
Starting point is 00:36:55 where it's unclear exactly where they're going. I think they're more moral victories than anything else of telling people. I don't call them moral. Oh, sure, sure.
Starting point is 00:37:06 They're like spiritual victories. Spiritual victories of like... The idea of him having a spirit. Can you imagine him doing mushrooms? No. What would come out of that? Hey, gang, we've got to take one last break.
Starting point is 00:37:21 to thank Shopify. You know, when we started this show, we had no clue what we were doing. Really no idea what we're doing. But luckily? This one goes, I know just the thing to do. We found the perfect partner. Shopify, okay?

But I always think about that, but then there's all these tech freaks who love to go on these retreats and they like somehow come back and they're like, how can we make people's lives? more miserable. Worse than this. But it's just going to,
Starting point is 00:39:24 I mean, it's going to have a chilling effect on, um, on someone. I mean, I saw John Stewart talking about it. John Stewart
Starting point is 00:39:30 does the daily show at Comedy Central. Owned by Paramount. Owned by Paramount. Paramount just dropped one and a half billion dollars to entice, uh, the South Park guys to do five more seasons.
Starting point is 00:39:42 Did you see that? Interesting. Today. No, I did not see that. One and a half billion dollars offered. Good for them. Good for them.
Starting point is 00:39:48 Jesus Christ Just like that's their budget Or just going to them directly There's no way that's their budget I think it's like going to them Directly to One and a half billion dollars One and a half billion dollars
Starting point is 00:40:00 For five more seasons Yeah Creators Wow Near Deals worth two billion Among the richest in television history Who is still watching Honestly
Starting point is 00:40:10 South Park I didn't even I mean it's great But wow okay Connor Conman That is wild stuff Paramount Global Secured the Show's exclusive global streaming rights for $300 million a year. About half that sum will go to the creators through a joint venture that they co-own with Paramount. That is absolutely bananas.
Starting point is 00:40:33 Well, we'll see how that, we'll see how that goes. But, you know, there's probably a lot less they can do to them once the merger goes through. So maybe they're just saying, let's ram this thing through. Let's forget about Trump. But who knows? I also can't imagine. He seems hell-bent on continuing to go after anyone he dislikes. Well, so the latest thing is he's suing his old pal Rupert Murdoch for... That's the scariest part. A guy who, like, sucks his cock on a daily basis. Like, brother, don't slap his head while you're dicks in his mouth. He'll bite.
Starting point is 00:41:07 This guy put you in office twice. I mean... $10 billion. So obviously that means that he's probably going to settle for 15 to 20. He loves the $10 billion thing. I still can't get over his lawyers referring to him as a content creator and that he suffered mental anguish. He's one of our greatest content creators. He is truly a content creator.
Starting point is 00:41:26 Oh, God, I fucking hate his face. He's always making that fucking face with his mouth open. Even during the, when my mom and dad would watch, or maybe it was just my mom, maybe my dad would, no, he wasn't dead by then. I don't think he cared, though, about the apprentice. My mom loved that show.
Starting point is 00:41:42 She was always watching it. And every time I would see Donald Trump, you'd be making your fired face and like press photos I'm like I just remember thinking what the fuck is the big that's it that's his whole shtick you
Starting point is 00:41:54 Scott Bayo you gotta go work with Lil Kim and sell hot dogs on the street in New York City that was the whole thing that was the whole stick it's just like pairing B lists
Starting point is 00:42:05 D list celebrities with each other to sell hot dogs I never watched it oh god that's all it was I've seen clips I know is the you're fired guy so the story is the Wall Street Journal this last week
Starting point is 00:42:18 said that as part of the discovery in all of the thousands and thousands of documents that came out of the Epstein case, they say that they found a letter from Trump to Epstein for 2003 Epstein's 50th birthday. Yeah, I think it was leaked from someone in the Justice Department
Starting point is 00:42:38 who's recently been fired or like exacting revenge on some of these people. So that little bit that we did in the beginning, beginning, that was the, that was the bulk of the letter. It, it alleges that Trump actually wrote out dialogue between him and Epstein, complete with a narrator. Yeah, just to explain, it was a, it was a, it was a leatherbound book for, uh, Epstein's 50th birthday that Galane Maxwell had put together. What a loving partner, allegedly, allegedly. Loving partner, good woman, good supporter. With, with, with letters from all his friends. Alan Dershowitz. Alan Dershowitz. Alan Dershowitz.
Starting point is 00:43:15 Les Wexner, all these people. Probably Bill Gates. Probably Bill Gates, probably Bill Clinton. Hey, thanks for the massages. But there's a letter from Trump, which is, which Trump says it's not him. Yeah, so this is part of the, this is part of the lawsuit. It says, to attempt an inextricably link President Trump to Epstein, defendants Safdar and Pollot Solo falsely claim that the salacious language of the letter, is contained within a hand-drawn naked woman, which was created with a heavy marker.
Starting point is 00:43:51 So part of the Wall Street Journal thing was that this letter was outlined by a hand-drawn naked woman. It goes on. Worse, defendants falsely represent as fact that President Trump drew the naked woman's breasts and signed his name, Donald, below her waist, quote, mimicking pubic hair. I really like his response. This is not me. This is not me. This is. is a fake thing. It's a Wall Street Journal story. I never wrote a picture in my life. I don't draw pictures of women. It's not my language. It's not my words. I never wrote a picture in my life. I never wrote a picture in my life. I never wrote that. I never wrote that picture in my life. Meanwhile, then there's all these pictures of little doodles that he's done. I know that he like
Starting point is 00:44:34 auctioned off. And they like sign, which is kind of cute because it's like, imagine Donald Trump sitting down and going like, he drew one of the Empire State Building and like all sorts of stuff. I need to see the lady. I need to see the naked lady. It is pretty wild that they say that they've got it. Show us a fucking picture of it. They just give us description. A pair of small arcs denotes the woman's breasts
Starting point is 00:44:57 and the future president's signature is a squiggly Donald below her waist, mimicking pubic hair. I would never draw a small breast on a woman. I would only draw giant chugs. That is true. That is working in his favor. Big nipples.
Starting point is 00:45:13 So yeah, he's suing them now. and going after them. I also just like need to know if this is confirmed because it's just there's a little bit of me that what is confirmed? The letter.
Starting point is 00:45:25 Because there's a little bit of me that I don't know. I guess I don't know him well but just it's weird. It's hard for me to picture. Trump will? Yeah, I mean I just know him from you know what I see on TV
Starting point is 00:45:36 and everything but I'm like what kind of person the letter is so strange. It opens with a narrator. Yeah, to read it, read it again. So it opens and it says voiceover, almost as if he's doing a scene in a movie or something. Voiceover, there must be more to life than having everything. There must be more to life than having.
Starting point is 00:46:00 So he wants Jeffrey Epstein to read this letter and picture someone saying that above him. And then it goes into an imagined conversation between him and Jeffrey Epstein. And Donald says, yes, there is, but I won't tell you what it is. so it's them looking at the camera presumably because then what does epstein say say nor will i since i also know what it is so they're both sharing in this little secret and then donald says we have certain things in common geoffrey yes we do come to think of it and then he says enigma's never age have you noticed that enigmas never age have you noticed that and geoffrey says as a matter of fact it was clear to me the last time i saw you and then it just ends with Donald's last line to him a pal is a wonderful thing that is Trumpian kind of
Starting point is 00:46:49 a pal is a wonderful thing happy birthday and may every day be another wonderful secret it's the horniest creepiest and obviously I think everyone's mind goes to the fact that they're
Starting point is 00:47:03 like kind of gloating about the fact that they have this they love young women and getting jerked off yeah what a what a sicko
Starting point is 00:47:12 yes there is but I won't tell you what it is I won't tell like what is the sea if this was if this was like Democrats if this was a letter
Starting point is 00:47:23 between fucking Bill Clinton or Hillary Clinton anybody they'd be like they're alluding to like blood sacrifices
Starting point is 00:47:30 and adrenochrome like that's the secret if it's how enigma's never age if it is real the it's so on the nose there must be more to life
Starting point is 00:47:40 than having everything and they both go yes, there is. Look, we've acquired everything, except for the flesh of prepubescent women. And it's like, oh. And they're enigmas? I mean, Trump really is an enigma.
Starting point is 00:47:58 You got to hand it to him. But so he's got more smoke for, he's got more smoke for the Wall Street Journal. He's got enough smoke for everybody. He's got enough smoke to hotbox to the damn country. The Wall Street Journal printed a fake letter, supposedly to Epstein. these are not my words not the way I talk
Starting point is 00:48:14 also I don't draw pictures I told Rupert Rupert Murdoch it was a scam that he shouldn't print this fake story but he did and now I'm going to sue his ass off and that of his third rate newspaper I'm gonna sue his ass off
Starting point is 00:48:26 yeah I'm gonna sue his ass off and that of his third rate newspaper thank you for your attention to this matter it is crazy to just fully you know he doesn't even try to all allude to the fact that or like blur the fact
Starting point is 00:48:39 that these people are just all He's just fully calling him and being like, don't print it. Don't do it. Well, so that's going on. He's suing them. We'll see what happens. I predict that they'll settle and nothing will come of it because Don is Teflon, Don. Meanwhile, at least, at least.
Starting point is 00:48:57 Thank God this is happening because I've been saying it needs to happen because we can't afford it as a country anymore. $1.1 billion is going to be cut the funding for NPR and PBS. This is a big one for, you know. This is not just a Trump thing. I think this has been a pet project of the conservatives for a long time. Which is so asinine because, you know, I'm reading into it.
Starting point is 00:49:22 It serves mostly rural areas. And a lot of rural areas are red. And I think that a lot of these constituents are probably celebrating it. Don't even realize that what they're celebrating is the loss of this thing that they, in many cases, rely on. For things like weather alerts and emergency broadcast.
Starting point is 00:49:41 I don't think it serves mostly rural areas. It serves like kind of all over. I want to say it was like... NPR has... Oh, sorry. What I meant was that rural areas mostly get just like public radio.
Starting point is 00:49:55 It's going to be like all these things, though, you know, with the big beautiful bill and all these cuts to Medicaid and all these rural hospitals that depend on this funding and stuff, these places are going to be hit so fucking hard. They hit the hardest. But it doesn't matter to them.
Starting point is 00:50:09 Well, it's that goddamn. liberal bias. It is that goddamn fucking cuck-sucking liberal bias. It's funny to include I don't know, PBS. PBS to me is like the most It's like Sesame Street. It's which is, you know, it's they have like, they have black and white
Starting point is 00:50:24 kids hanging out so that's not. That's actually not cool. I don't like that. And then it's you know, Ken Burns' documentaries which. Yeah. The baseball one rocks. But then finally, to round it out, another thank God, he's
Starting point is 00:50:40 doing this thing where because woke is bad obviously in the Washington Redskins formerly the Washington Redskins have changed their name to the Washington commanders they're waiting on a stadium deal and he's threatening to block it
Starting point is 00:50:52 unless they change their team name back he's also crying foul about the Cleveland Indians well not anymore what are they the Cleveland commanders I don't know
Starting point is 00:51:05 I think something like that so he's saying the same thing about them you know I don't think they have a stadium deal so it's not as big of a deal, but it's the same, you know, they got to change them back.
Starting point is 00:51:13 It's just another example of how much he's just... We should bring back minstrel shows, too. Yeah, bring it all back. Bring it all back. You know, it's funny you say that. It's,
Starting point is 00:51:24 it's, you see so much of this driven online by this, how many times have you seen, um, whether it's a tweet or a, an Instagram post or something where it's, it's just the words,
Starting point is 00:51:37 this is what they took from us. Oh, yeah. And then, it's some kind of just like a naked lady it'll either be um a busty woman sitting on a convertible like from the 70s right before Reagan took office or it'll be what I find even weird because you said the Mitchell Straz I think there was one today where it was um they were just posting montages of like gone with the wind and those kind of eras and it's like guys I don't know what you think happened. If you went back to that time, you would just be some dirt poor. You'd be
Starting point is 00:52:13 emotionally stifled. Not only, I mean, not even that. You just, you're looking at a movie that displays upper class wealth in a time where everyone around them was just an abject poverty. And you think you're going to be that guy because the woke took away your opportunities to be that guy. They did take it away. They did take it away. They did take it away. what's your point lib I'm just I'm astounded they think that like they they were going to have better and more opportunities in I like the one where it's like a dad coming home from work in his suit and he's got his hat on and he's got his briefcase and he's bending down to greet his his child and the wife's waiting there with her apron on and it's again like this is what they took from you and let's just play that out even if it was a this is what they took from you pretty sure that a lot of of it was due to like um yeah reaganomics and uh conservatism and and um uh outsourcing jobs and union busting and all the shit that you but to be honest they've like turned their back on Reagan on a lot of stuff i would i feel like up until uh even 26 you know in trump's first term
Starting point is 00:53:30 he still kind of had to pray at the altar of Reagan you see a lot of these guys now because you know he was, the left can bring up his kind of immigration policies, you know, they, whether it's these legal victories he's getting, you know, these spiritually victories or this kind of cultural victories, he has completely taken over. And I know you, I don't know exactly what those clips are you wanted to show of Nick Fuentes and Alex Jones. Let's play Nick Fuentes going off. I mean, I don't believe that these, This is going to hold, but he's losing support rapidly of some of his most ardent vocal supporters, including and especially the Mexican white nationalist known as Nick Fuentes, who's a piece of shit. Let's just play it. And now he says, if you're not on board with the Epstein cover-up, oh, I don't want your support.
Starting point is 00:54:24 You're a weakling. Fuck you. Fuck you. You suck. You are fat. You are a joke. You are stupid. you are not funny you are not as smart as you think you are and honestly i and if you watch my show
Starting point is 00:54:43 you know i've been very critical i've never been this far this just goes to show this entire thing has been a scam when we look back on the history of populism in america this is so crazy to me because nick fuentes is so insanely far right and so psychotic gay too but but For him to turn his back on Trump, I'm like, who do you want? Yeah. Who would be better? Well, I think he actually, well, let's play it. Look back on the MAGA movement as the biggest scam in American history.
Starting point is 00:55:17 Well, we've been trying to tell you. And the liberals were right. The MAGA supporters were had. They were. When we look back in history, we will see Trump as a scam artist who served as a vehicle for this rather than the other way around. We were not the vehicle for Trump. Trump was the vehicle for all of us. All right.
Starting point is 00:55:37 Now, let's play the Alex Jones. I mean, we'll see how long that lasts until he fucking pivots again. I don't know much about him, just that he's insane. Oh, he's like the most vile human being. Yeah, but I don't know about, I have seen a lot of stuff of him being critical towards Trump. I don't know how much he, yeah. I don't think he's as, you know, go with the flow as, you know, you're Benny Johnson's or your. I mean, I've seen Charlie Kirk fully be like, I don't want to.
Starting point is 00:56:03 talk about Epstein anymore. Okay? I trust my friends in the government. It is interesting seeing the marching orders get passed down and who listens to them and who is truly independent. But human thumb, Alex Jones had this to say. I'm going to excommunicate you.
Starting point is 00:56:19 Well, you're not the Pope, bro. I mean, you're not speaking from the throne ex-cathra. And plus I'm not Catholic. so i think of catholics it's just give me a break anyone who disagrees anything i say is banished and i'm not saying trump land is a cult the democrats are the cult of having reason and logic and common sense but when trump starts behaving like that
Starting point is 00:56:57 it starts getting into cult territory. And I bet since I talked to the first hour and said I'm not in this cult, that's what it's turning into. I bet there's already news articles about it. But I went on to say Trump is not a cult yet, but behavior like this starts going down that road.
Starting point is 00:57:14 But I guarantee if it's not out now, it'll be out in the next hour. And it'll be Jones says he's left the Trump cult. Nope, never was in the cult. Not saying it's a cult, but this is starting to become cult-like language. 100% of cult. And this is what it's taken for you guys?
Starting point is 00:57:30 I am surprised. You know, we talked about it a couple weeks ago, a couple weeks ago. I honestly thought it would, I thought it was going to go away. The Epstein stuff? Yeah, I'm surprised. No, it's all distractions. Yeah. Everything else.
Starting point is 00:57:45 I mean, releasing the MLK files, I don't even know what the fuck. I don't care. And now going after Obama potentially? Did you see what he said today? No. He was doing a meeting with the president of the Philippines going over trade stuff. And of course he... Oh, yeah, I saw he said they just signed a deal or something.
Starting point is 00:58:05 Yeah. And he starts going off and he's saying, I think he said, I mean, exactly how you'd say, Barack Hussein Obama, have you heard of him? He's actually like enemy number one. He tried... He's basically saying that Obama and the Russia Gate thing was all a coup attempt and that he's going to go after Obama, like criminally, and try to... Interesting.
Starting point is 00:58:30 And at first, I'm like, okay, this is just another one of those blustery headline kind of things, but, man, it would be really, really bad if he did actually try to press charges against and go after a former president. That would be fucking bananas. Like, that would actually be an impetus for some real... I mean, we'll say, we can... I imagine he will probably last... continue to lash out more. I'm surprised that
Starting point is 00:58:58 I'm surprised that it's gone this far. Yeah, just because in my mind, it's like he's fucking Teflon Don, nothing sticks. I mean, the amount of times over the last nothing sticks and it gives you cancer quietly. Over the last, I don't know, eight years or whatever where the amount of times where people have been like, the walls are closing it around him, everything in Trump land is bad. We have his tax returns. And then he comes out and he's like, actually, I've never been better. But it's surprising. This might be the first time you're actually seeing members of his base kind of They'll be back on. They'll be back. I mean, that's, I've seen, you know, I've seen a lot of people being like, this is the end. It's like, oh, oh, so what? 2028's going to roll around. They're all going to go, you know what? I feel betrayed by Trump. I'm going to vote Democrat now.
Starting point is 00:59:49 He did this shit after January 6th. It felt like, oh, yeah, he's done. And I remember two years into Biden. I'm like, thank God, that was over, and we're just never going to, that's it. He had his shot. No way he's going to run for re-election. He's too old. He's too used up. His base has abandoned him. The Republicans in power are smart enough to know now, just like, hey, let's all collectively move past this.
Starting point is 01:00:13 No. January 6th is a perfect example of everyone kind of being like, that's the end of him. And honestly, Democrats had their own opportunity to prosecute him for that. and never hear from him again and they did not take the opportunity. Even if they had, that would have been, can you, I mean, imagine the shit that they would, that Alex Jones and the like
Starting point is 01:00:35 would have been saying. Who cares? Like, there needs to be consequences for these fucking things. We're such like, you know, we can't live in fear of these people. And like, honestly, that's, he's taken over everything. And it's just been a game of appeasement
Starting point is 01:00:47 over and over and over again. And you're seeing it with, you're seeing it with CBS and you're going to see it with all of these businesses down the line until, he's just completely taken over everything. And I'm worried he already has.
Starting point is 01:00:59 I mean, we were going to talk a little bit about the Jubilee interview, or not interview debate, I'm sorry. That thing is as bleak as it gets. I mean, and there's not much to say about it. The one guy lost his job. I know. Oh, for my conservative views.
Starting point is 01:01:14 Right. I thought there was free speech in this country. There's not much to say about it other than, look, if you haven't watched it, it's... Good luck. It's bizarre. I watched it all on like 1.7... or 1.75 speed of just like trying to fucking...
Starting point is 01:01:28 Medi Hassan from Zateo News, formerly of MSNBC, and The Intercept, went on... Surrounded. And it was supposed to be hard-right conservatives, but they are just, I mean, fully fascist. It's... Unapologetically, just like, yeah. I remember he asked the one,
Starting point is 01:01:55 guy who lost his job this um he looks like a squirrel who's been hoarding chestnuts uh in his cheeks and he says so are you you know are you a fascist and the guy goes well yeah i am well no he said he said something along the lines of like um you like yeah i don't know what you want me to say like i just i like these guys or whatever and meddy goes well i think you could say i'm a fashion he goes yeah i'm a fascist just proudly uh he also had um didn't want to didn't want to say the Nazis were bad I mean he said that he fully believes in
Starting point is 01:02:31 voting for an autocrat and then never having elections again yeah I mean and I will say these kinds of people I mean yeah these people existed it's just they would never no the internet was a anyone would feel comfortable coming out and saying that with their face on display I think part of it is a lot of these people think
Starting point is 01:02:52 that this is their shot at becoming a commentator. Oh, I think he's... I think you're absolutely right. I mean, that's the thing. People were kind of gloating like, because they found that guy, Connor, goes by Pinesap something on Twitter,
Starting point is 01:03:07 which I did try to find his account, but I think it's been disabled when you go to it now. They're like, ah, he lost his job, like consequences, blah, blah, blah. Last I checked, I mean, we could pull it up. He has a give, send go. How much money?
Starting point is 01:03:23 he was asking for 15k I think That's it And brother aim higher Remember the inward playground lady The inward playground lady Endward Playground lady made a million dollars He's already at he's already at 30k You know with tons of donations
Starting point is 01:03:38 With insane notes on them What fellowship hath light with darkness None keep riding the tiger bro In the end the light will triumph It's time to dig in and let the know that if you try and cancel someone, all you're going to do is make them rich. Vote with your wallet.
Starting point is 01:03:55 It's more important now than ever. Yeah, this guy will probably go on to become some kind of new right-wing grifter. There was a guy in there. I mean, these people are such hussies, too. There was a guy in there who was some kind of right-wing TikToker or something like that.
Starting point is 01:04:12 He didn't have the balls to go up. He literally tweeted after, like, I was going to go up and say something, but Medi smelled like shit. And so he just sat there. for three hours and couldn't muster one response and people found he was wearing this shirt with um it looked like a studio jibliified AI picture and it was um that's what it was but it was the that picture of that lady who called those kids or that playground the inward lady
Starting point is 01:04:40 it was just the jibbluified picture of her going like these people i mean they're ultimately at the end of the day they're very sad lonely people i think oh dude and they're they The reason I went to his... They found community in this. The reason I went to his account was because someone was talking about how they found his Twitter, Pine Sap, and he's extremely ultra-Catholic. That's his whole thing. And when they went to his account before we were shut down, it was a ton of tweets about
Starting point is 01:05:09 how he was thinking about killing himself because he's so guilty about how often he's masturbating and everything. You mean that guy? The squirrel guy? The fascist guy? him? Let's play a little clip so people, I'm sure a lot of people have seen these clips, but play a little clip for anyone who hasn't seen what METI was dealing with.
Starting point is 01:05:28 What would it look like? Well, quite frankly, I think we would deport people who shouldn't be here. I don't know what's the government look like. What does the government look like? Yeah. I would say quite frankly, it's under a sort of benevolent leaders such as, you know, Franco. It could be a kind of aristocratic class, could be someone who picks the order crime. Frankly, the people.
Starting point is 01:05:46 I mean, we could hold a vote on it. Kings were paid. Is it on that democracy? Well, sure. You can have a vote to get to that state. And then no more votes afterwards. Absolutely. 100%.
Starting point is 01:05:56 Wow. And if that autocrat kills you and your family, you're fine with them. Well, I'm not going to be a part of the group that he kills because that's a whole thing. How do you know? Well, Carl Schwarzis. Wow, that little moment is like the apotheosis. I'm not going to be part of the. The apotheosis of the leopard eating face.
Starting point is 01:06:13 Oh, yeah. Well, I'm not going to be part of the group that they kill. Yeah. I cannot believe. Well, keep going. Mr. Schmitt makes this point very well in his work. It's the friend-enemy distinction, right? You liberals...
Starting point is 01:06:25 Carl Schmitt, the Nazi theoretician. Yeah, absolutely. I don't care. Are you fan of the Nazis? I don't care. I frankly don't care being called the Nazi at all. I didn't say that. I didn't actually say that. I said, are you a fan of the Nazis? Well, they persecuted the church a little bit. I'm not a fan of that, but... What about the persecution of the Jews?
Starting point is 01:06:41 Well, I mean, I certainly don't support anyone's human dignity, being assaulted. I'm a Catholic. But you don't condemn Nazi persecution of the Jews? I think that there was... a little bit of persecution. We may have to rename the show because you're a little bit more than a far right Republican.
Starting point is 01:06:56 Hey, what can I say? I think you say, I'm a fascist. Yeah, I am. Dude, that laugh is the scariest thing ever see. He's a scary guy. I mean, imagine someone saying you're a fan of the Nazis
Starting point is 01:07:10 and he goes, well, I didn't like that they attacked the church. Let me list off the things I was bummed about what the Nazis did. Persecution of the church? These people, man. But this is what, I mean, the victory is done, man.
Starting point is 01:07:28 It's like these. And there's a moment where he asks him. Young men. There's a moment where he asks him. I mean, there's women in there. He talks to them. Yeah, I know. But still, the young men, we need to get to our young men. We really do. But he, he asks, I guess they had been talking for a second. And he, he says, sorry, what's, what's your name? And he, he hesitates for a second. He does this weird kind of like, and then he says
Starting point is 01:07:51 Connor and Medi goes, you hesitated there and he says, well, I go by a pseudonym online. And I think it's so telling that I think these guys are so they're so used to being these online freaks with zero repercussions,
Starting point is 01:08:07 especially in this new era of you know, of Elon's X and all of this that they're like coming out of their basement for the first time in a long time and they're going
Starting point is 01:08:23 oh yeah I have a name I have a government name I have a human name I guess you can call me Connor but mostly I go by pine sap and I tweet the unword a lot in between talking about how I might kill myself because I can't stop jacking it
