Starting point is 00:04:10 Oh, baboo. Well, comment if highlights a little bit of sun and cool shirts has awakened something in you. I have been going on for the last 24 hours I've gone on a couple walks in my neighborhood, which has been nice. And then I helped There was this couple, this old couple Disassembling a stove on the side of the road And as I walked past the old man had no teeth And he said, hey, happy Halloween
Starting point is 00:04:38 I said, hey, happy Halloween. And he goes, can you help me get this up under the, They had a cart. And I said, yeah, sure. And his wife gave me her gloves And they were all sweaty inside. And me and the guy hoisted it up And he said, you're so strong, you're so strong
Starting point is 00:05:00 And I was like, yeah, yeah And I put that up there and I said, thank you very much And he wished me a happy Halloween again And I was on my way I think they're like scroungers Scroongers, scavengers No, they're scroungers Like they're going to use it for parts
Starting point is 00:05:14 They're scrounging for stuff They're scrounging for, yeah They're selling Halloween candy at the grocery store already Really? Yeah, so they're on a song That's how you know summer's over Candy corn, man We missed it.
Starting point is 00:05:24 It passed us by. Someone said only like 11 more Fridays until fall. It's nice. You like that? Yeah. I want something forever. I like every season. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:05:36 Okay. You live in Los Angeles, Bub. It's summer year-round, truly, here. Come on. It's just a little, it's a little darker summer. I can't argue with you. I'll argue with you in the bonus episode if you want. I'm not going to get baited by a guy in a cool shirt.
Starting point is 00:05:51 You're not going to get baited. What's that mean? I'm jerking off a, like, really tall guy with an upward-facing penis. Why is that baited? Masturbated. All right, let's get into the thing. The cool shirts are going to his head. So, uh, I have here in my notes,
Starting point is 00:06:09 morons believe there's a global conspiracy to mock Christianity. If you've been sleeping under, if you've been living under a rock, go ahead and say hi to those bugs. You know, I get tired of doing my own catchphrases, but the people love. Oh, you think that's a catchphrase. for you. Yeah. It's absolutely. I don't know you consider it a catchphrase. Yeah, yeah. If you live under a rock, say, I know under the two of the bugs under there. And also, here's what happened. The Olympics started last week and the opening ceremony was interesting. I think this is one that's
Starting point is 00:06:40 not under the rocks. I think this is for people who are too online. Everyone involved is too online. I agree. So it opened with, let's see, do I even have it here? Do I have the, the effin thing? okay no well i just have that end thing um i think it looked cool and fun i think it looked cool and and fun too and celebrating greek culture it was celebrating greek culture it was also celebrating french culture since they are the hosts yeah and the french are known for pageantry they are known for escargo they are known for joan of arc pageantry escargo and john of arc they're known for um uh i feel like they're known for for mocking and uh speaking truth to power libertet and Come on, give me the three.
Starting point is 00:07:23 You had two. Liberté Debrate. Yep. Gibby Dei. Gerard de Pardue. What are they? Liberty, egalite, fraternity.
Starting point is 00:07:37 Oh, yeah. So, they're a frat country. They're a frat country. I pledged in France. It was crazy. I applied, but they rejected me. They said, you're not French enough. Come back when you have a cooler shirt.
Starting point is 00:07:48 But it opened with a close-up shot of Marie Antoinette It looked like she was holding her own head And she went like And then it zoomed out And this death metal band Started playing Gojira Gojira
Starting point is 00:08:03 And which is how the Japanese say Godzilla It's translated to Godzilla Gojita Anywho And it was full of Also what's there was some hubbub about the Hubbub About the Marie Antoinette
Starting point is 00:08:18 And people being like Respect Monarchy And I'm like What's going on out here? I know. So known dipshit, this guy, Ian Carroll, who continues to just be increasingly popular for conspiracy nut morons. He's even got crazy eyes. So at the end of the thing, it appears to, it looks like it's a recreation of the Last Supper.
Starting point is 00:08:46 But it's not, as it turns out. To be fair. It looks like it. And not only, it's, in some of the articles, it seemed they were saying that some of the Olympic planners were even a little bit confused as to what it was. But it wasn't a reference to that also, even if it was, who gives it shit? It's one of the most parodied. That's the thing. Even if it was the last supper, shut up.
Starting point is 00:09:12 Yeah, I've seen ones where it's fucking Donald Trump. It's like, if it's blasphemy to mock it and ridicule, these same people, by the way. give Islam a hard time for like, you can't even draw the Prophet Muhammad. Are people giving Islam a hard time? They've been known to. That's fucked. They've been known to, especially with, yeah,
Starting point is 00:09:33 you can't even draw the Prophet Muhammad. Do, and then they freak out. It's like, you're doing exactly that, you fucking hypocrite. Jay Sweet Charlie. Yes. Oh, yeah, yeah, well. But so this guy said, I try so hard every day not to believe
Starting point is 00:09:46 there is a giant global plot to destroy and mock Christianity. he tries hard every day I was a kid do you know that guy have you I must have seen his tic tic tacks tic tics
Starting point is 00:09:58 no I've never seen his tic tacks but uh what flavor he's like all over the map conspiracy wise so I genuinely don't I can't tell if he's like
Starting point is 00:10:07 but so then he says but it just gets harder and harder because there obviously is I wonder who could be behind such a thing and then he does this emoji he's talking about Jews he's talking about the Jews
Starting point is 00:10:18 oh because I genuinely was like I don't know. I feel like he's doing rhetorical thing, but I'm like, who is it? But you, you, and then, I mean, he's, he's quote tweeting this guy, Vincent, whoever, he says, the opening ceremony of the Olympics mocked Jesus by recreating the Last Supper with drag queens. But he opens the tweet with French flags used as alerts, basically, and says, an abomination. With drag queens, a gay smurf and a few children sprinkled in there. How do we know the smurf is gay?
Starting point is 00:10:48 Just for fun. clearly overt pagan satanic symbolism. And they call us conspiracy theorists. No, I'm not going to call you conspiracy theorist. I'm going to call you a did did dip shit. These people truly have the worldview of a scared eight-year-old. You know who my favorite one was? Who?
Starting point is 00:11:07 Did you see Rob Schneider? No, I didn't. What did he say? He had to, he tweeted just, you know, sorry to everyone at the Olympics, but I'm going to have to boycott this one due to the opening and it's mocking of Christianity. And it's like, Simone Biles gets word and she's like, no!
Starting point is 00:11:22 Yeah, but it was really funny because obviously the New York Post picks it up and the headlines just like, Rob Schneider's boycotting the Olympics. I didn't know he was competing. I didn't know this man was up for anything. Meanwhile, this is a guy who's been in drag many times. Yeah, so many times. The Rob Schneider vehicle, Hot Chick. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:43 I think on SNL, he was in drag. Yeah. He showed up on talk shows in drag. But so as it turns out, oh, and then there was the, let's see, there, well, first of all, it was not making fun of the Last Supper. It was Dionysus. It was based on like a Dutch painting of the Olympic gods. And that's all it was. It just happens to kind of look like and resemble, here's a photo of it. It happens to, I mean, that guy, he is a smurf it's really weird he's got the beard but there is a guy over here with his balls hanging out i think it's all kind of sick i i think so too i think it's great it's uh it's pageantry it's um it's uh it's it's french it's fucking french man just just just just you know it all you know it smell crazy in there yo you know it oh you brother amen it smelled absolutely bananas in there
Starting point is 00:12:43 hey guys we want to take a quick break we're uh we're talking about aura It's a company we're working with. You know, so I don't know about you guys, but my phone is just overwhelmed with spam calls and text messages. It seems like just about every day I'm getting these dang things. And I don't know what to do about it. And if you're wondering why that's happening to you, it's because big companies, they get all of our data
Starting point is 00:13:11 and they have no way to actually keep it safe. That's right. And one of these, it's actually, it just happened to me. And I honestly didn't even know why it was happening, but my email, I kept getting alerts from Gmail being, is saying, oh, someone successfully logged into your account. Is that correct? It was awful. I've changed my password so many times by now. And then I finally get a little letter from Ticketmaster. Apparently all 560 million users, their stuff was hacked and their data just put up for sale. I guess I was one of them. Full names, addresses, email. email addresses, phone numbers, credit card data. I mean, so at best, it's going to lead to more spam, and at worst, it's going to lead to fraud. And what is Ticketmaster doing about it?
Starting point is 00:13:58 Nothing. They said that they didn't think that the hack would have a material impact on their overall business. They don't give a hoot about you and your data. All I got was a little letter being like, sorry about that. So all these businesses, they happily collect our data, but do nothing to protect it. That's why I've been using ORA, the sponsor of today's video. ORA alerts me when my data has been part of a data breach or leaked on the dark web.
Starting point is 00:14:24 It gives me fast fraud alerts if anyone tries to use the data to access my credit or bank accounts, and it removes my information from data broker website so I get less spam. Yeah. So don't leave yourself and your family vulnerable to data breaches. And if you really don't want to either, you can go to aura.com, that's A-U-R-A-com slash baize. B-A-E-S, and try your first two weeks for free. Check the link in the description. And then there was this horseman.
Starting point is 00:14:55 They had this horse. It looks really cool. It's like this white metal horse delivering, I think, the torch with like a white horse person. And it has a hood over it. It's meant to be Joan of Arc. But these absolute morons, again, Paris Olympics, features cloaked figure riding a pale horse, appearing to evoke Revelation 6-8 in the Bible
Starting point is 00:15:22 and the four horsemen of the apocalypse. In Revelation, the fourth horseman rides a pale horse, hmm, and is identified as death. I think you're falling for bots. This is not a real guy. No, these are real people. But it's just, it's like I said, yeah, they've got the worldview of a child
Starting point is 00:15:39 who truly thinks that it's like, this is evil. Is this real? Oh, yeah, here's the beginning with, them. I mean, that's sick. It's fucking insane. I love it. It's wild.
Starting point is 00:16:02 You know what her last words were? Let them have the cake? No. The cake is good. I just wanted to give them cake. She apologized for stepping on the guys. She was going to step into. get her head chopped off
Starting point is 00:16:17 and she said sorry sir I didn't mean to do it oh that's very sweet well so yeah this person said in using this the Marie Antoinette opening dear normies you're probably sat at home watching the French Olympics
Starting point is 00:16:32 thinking what the actual fuck is this well it's just another conspiracy playing out in front of your very eyes the one where we tell you the world is run by satanic globalists who control everything these people do bless you these people but these people do very strange sick things and openly worship Satan or a brand of they love showing this fact off do you see it yet they're not even hiding it you're a baby if
Starting point is 00:16:56 you're scared of the devil you're you're a you're a baby if you're scared of the devil also just got to point out a uh i think it was aristotle who who whoa he's bringing up aristotle right now where is he going with this aristotle like i gets one cool shirt and he's like let me tell you guys something about Aristotle? I think it was Aristotle that said, if God is all powerful and all-knowing and benevolent and stuff, then he should be able to destroy the devil. Just like destroy him. Be like, all right, yeah, no, you're blinked out of existence.
Starting point is 00:17:25 There's just a, that's just something you picked up from Aristotle? That's just a lot. That's just something I picked up. It's just, you know. Did you see that clip of, that clip of what? Ricky Jervais telling a Holocaust joke to Jerry Seinfeld resurfaced. Oh, yeah. What does Jerry Seinfeld do?
Starting point is 00:17:42 Nothing. They both, I can't tell if Jerry Seinfeld is just humoring him, but they truly act as if it's, they're like, I mean, it's so, on so many levels, right? The joke is literally, what's the joke? I've heard them all. It's, it's not dark or anything, really. It's that, it's that a Holocaust survivor goes to, goes to heaven, and he tells God a Holocaust joke. And God says, I don't get it. and the Holocaust survivors as well. I guess you had to be there. Ooh, ooh, it speaks to God being impartial or some shit.
Starting point is 00:18:22 Right, like, if God was there, why didn't he do anything? Yeah, oh, it's Ricky Jervais making, trying to point out that God doesn't exist. And it's just like, God, look at these two morons. I hope their car crashes on two. I hope they're 56 Porsche crashes. Right. They're doing the whole, I mean, folks, this has been around since, God, the early 2000s, the whole supposition that these are all lizard people.
Starting point is 00:18:51 And this one, I'm on board with them. They fuck up because, like, they sometimes accidentally, like, their lizard eye shows for a second. And they've got the astronaut guy. Which is undeniable. Yeah, true. I mean, it's right there. So, yeah, they've got this, it's, what's his name, Mark Scott Astronaut? What's his name?
Starting point is 00:19:10 Mark Scott Astronaut. They've got this side profile of him, and he just looks like a guy. That's it. He just looks like a guy. LeBron James, too. There's clearly, like, artificial artifacting because of a bad signal, and his eye and his whole face just kind of looks fucked up. Well, you'll really explain away anything. These people just, uh.
Starting point is 00:19:34 Did you see the, did you see the, we should put a little ticker up for the astronauts who were supposed to go away for eight days to the, ISS. Yeah. They're still in space. They're still in space. They look miserable. It's been 55 days. Their hair is all anti-gravity and they're just like, I'm tired of pooping in a bag.
Starting point is 00:19:52 Running out of stuff to talk about. So what else? What else? Hmm. Man, quit crying. You're in space. There's better, there's worse places to be. And then finally, there was a surfer who wiped out and his ass.
Starting point is 00:20:08 He's, I think he's, I think he's ducked. This doesn't have anything to do with the ceremony? No, it doesn't. But that is probably a conspiracy. They're trying to make your kids gay by showing them an ass. Yeah. Check that out, dude. They're even doing it in the, oh wow, this is the actual clip.
Starting point is 00:20:26 Here, let's see it. Yeah, he goes to duck duck and his asses out. He goes good. That's great. I mean, I love to see that. You like seeing a little butt. There was, that actually reminds me, the Winter Olympics, like, six years ago or something,
Starting point is 00:20:44 there was a snowboarder, and before it even happened, I pointed it out, these snowboarders were wearing their pants super low. They're like sagging their pants. Not cool. And I'm sitting there going, doesn't that impede your ability
Starting point is 00:20:57 to like spin around and do cool tricks? Sure enough, this one snowboarder, his pants fall too low and it causes him to fall and wipe out and stuff. And he totally, he beefed it. That's how I felt about, I'm never going to remember. his name but he's probably one of the best skateboarders right now and he wears athletic clothes and
Starting point is 00:21:18 every time i see skateboarders in the in the jeans with like a shoelace tied through the belt loops or whatever i'm like why would you not wear yeah if you're actually competing wear shorts yeah i mean it would make it so much easier yeah um there's just uh yeah it's just these these conspiracy guys they're just they really do have applesauce brains and they really do have applesauce brains and they really do, I can't imagine walking around being like, God, that's the double white there. The double. I don't think it's an actual real thing, though. I think it's because of
Starting point is 00:21:50 Twitter. You're reading So you don't think that these people believe it or you think that these are? They probably believe it. And so now they have like a weird corner of the internet where they can do this and it shows up on some home pages and you see everyone go like, isn't this so weird? And you're like, wow, everyone is talking about this. Yeah, true. But no one is actually
Starting point is 00:22:06 talking about it. That's true. Yeah, nobody is. I mean, maybe they are. it just doesn't seem like a every time you log on to that website you have the possibility of truly encountering the dumbest people on the planet oh and I do and because it's posted and sometimes other dumb people come around on this other tweet and like it everyone's going like oh this must be how every other eight year olds are out there realizing that this is the devil and I think we're giving too much yeah i just got to say though for the record i mean you would think these people
Starting point is 00:22:45 would stop and go if the devil was really trying to do something wouldn't it i what are they really what are they doing they're like hey the apocalypse is coming let's make sure everybody knows because we're just going to like insert some subtle not so subtle stuff into this opening ceremony just to fuck with you it's like you guys have been saying this for decades when's it going to happen now here's a thing because stupid penis everyone with god says god works in mysterious ways but why can't the devil work a mysterious way that's true why can't he do a weird last supper thing that's a good point opening ceremony yeah okay and blaspheme so maybe you should take your shit back and let the devil do mysterious shit um yeah that's true because maybe my kids are now gay for blue guys if the
Starting point is 00:23:28 and if god does work in mysterious ways that makes him a little bit bitchy i know stop being so weird about it and just do a good yeah just like just be uh uh It's like, can you cure grandma's cancer? I don't know. I don't know. Maybe her dying is supposed to happen. I'm not going to tell you, though. Just like, maybe it's a test of your faith.
Starting point is 00:23:47 I don't know. Just, just, God damn. Anyway, fucking God. Woo, all right, stinky winky. P.U. I'm just going to, can I give a P.U. To all that? No.
Starting point is 00:23:57 P.U. Stinky. Where does P.U come from? It means, um. Hugh. P.U. Uh, p. Hmm.
Starting point is 00:24:07 where he's Googling where does p u come from why do we say it's just the way i'm saying pier man thank god we don't live in the outhouse days huh there he goes here he goes the next time though you wake up in the middle of the night and you got to you got to use the bathroom just take a moment and be grateful that you don't have to walk out to an outhouse and suffer with that That would suck, man. I would just kill myself. You would kill yourself. Back then?
Starting point is 00:24:43 Yeah. We got to get a time machine. If I had IBD or something like that. All right, folks, we're taking another quick break. We're talking about Z biotics. You know, we all like to go out. We like to have a good time. We like to kick a few back.
Starting point is 00:24:56 We like to party. Okay. All right. But sometimes that leads to not feeling so good the next day, which brings us to the game-changing product, right? what we're using the night before we go out. Z biotic. Here's how it works.
Starting point is 00:25:14 When you drink, alcohol gets converted into this toxic byproduct in the gut. It's this byproduct, not dehydration, that's to blame for your rough next day. So this pre-alcohol produces an enzyme to break this byproduct down. So all you got to do is remember to make Z biotics your first drink of the night. Drink responsibly and you'll feel your best tomorrow. I know every time I use these pre-alcohol things before I drink, I notice a difference the next day. Even after a night out, I can confidently plan on being able to go for a climb, a surf, whatever, without any kind of worry. Oh, I've been out with this guy and I've been like, Ben, slow down.
Starting point is 00:25:52 Don't you have a surf tomorrow? I got that zbiotic. I zbiotics, my man.

Because that is, it's shaping what you think is happening in the world.
Starting point is 00:27:02 Mine is all just, uh, my just full of Glenn Powell fan cams. And I'm like, this is, this is what people are talking about. Yeah, Glenn Powell thing. No one even cares about the Olympics. And that's not, I mean, there's also just the, the other less overt conspiracies that, uh, like Elon Musk keeps pushing, which we will get to. So any whomst, let's switch here. Speaking of the conspiracies in Elon Musk, did you see, so I, I don't want to bring her
Starting point is 00:27:27 either I'm just but talk to a girl oh yeah has joined Twitter uh-huh you mean X yeah yeah did you see it yeah it's she's she's like I'm like is this all an op am I fucking going crazy I don't I don't know man she's like trying out new features on X so it's a great time to be alive and simultaneously just the worst time to be alive the 90s were the best time to be I think it's a great time to be alive we're right here we get to see the end that's good But that's my, that's, oh, we get to see the end. Yeah, it's nice. I thought it was more optimistic.
Starting point is 00:28:01 It's, uh, if you died in like 1999, you're like, ah, I feel like I was so close to finishing how it's going to, sure, too, yeah, it's the, well, at least you got to see the millennium, but yeah. Uh, okay, so last week was kind of a big deal. The market dropped more than 2% for the first time in, like, over a year. And Trader Treehouse was on it. Shout out to everybody there. we uh and traitor tree house and the traitor tree house literally on it um so what's going on wall street
Starting point is 00:28:34 is growing increasingly skeptical finally i mean jesus you would think that it uh would have caught on by now but they're growing skeptical that all this spending on AI these billions truly that's like for all these like fucking analysts and dickheads over there they got yeah everyone else can see a bubble coming a mile away but they're like now this is full steam ahead we're the most optimist guys in the world yeah so they're growing skeptical that all this spending on AI isn't going to pay off anytime soon or in a meaningful way uh we got earnings this week it's going to be a oh man because the the markets are hanging right on the cusp of a bigger bigger bigger pullback um so google reported last week we'll get to that in a sec but
Starting point is 00:29:20 microsoft apple and meta are all reporting this week everybody's super nervous uh because they've been like the bulk, 80% of the market's gains in the last year have been Microsoft, Apple, Meta, Google. Nvidia, including and especially. And yeah, Meta recently just said that basically their AI is going to be like free, free to use. And I don't know if you all remember, but the last quarterly report, they, Mark Zuckerberg said, and it caused the stock to drop precipitously, Mark Zuckerberg said,
Starting point is 00:29:58 yeah, we're, okay, I guess I'm just going to do that voice. Yeah, we're spending all this money, and it might be a long time until we see a return on that, and the market's freaked out, because that means that their margins are going to do worse, and when, if ever, are they going to see a payoff? And for them to now say, oh, it's just going to be mostly free anyway.
Starting point is 00:30:19 It's like, okay, well, so you're just pissing away billions of dollars? For what? the betterment of humanity. I genuinely don't understand. Like, I don't know if it's the same thing with just turn ads on again. Yeah, probably. It's what my guess would be. But it just feels like they're chasing their tail.
Starting point is 00:30:36 I mean, that's been their MO for everything, right? Get everyone on Instagram, have it be a fun platform. I mean, they didn't own it at first. Everyone joined it when it was an independent app. And then all of a sudden, you've got to make money somehow. You can't just have free app that people get to. You can't just have free app. You can't just have free app.
Starting point is 00:30:54 Yeah. No, you can't. You got to get a return when you pay billions of dollars for something. That's exactly right. And now everyone fucking hates using it. It's just full of every fourth thing is an ad. Or every fourth thing is one of the things you want to see. Everything else is an ad.
Starting point is 00:31:07 It's just like... Yeah. Google last week really failed to impress. They had their super thin profit margins and they had higher costs related to training AI models. God, I'm just all burpee today. And they, so they, uh, there was Jim Covello that was referenced from that Goldman Sachs report that we talked about that said overbuilding things, overbuilding things the world doesn't have use for or is not ready for typically ends badly. And that sounds like exactly what we're headed for. They are absolutely overbuilding, overpaying, overspending. Everybody's competing thinking that this is the next big thing. And it's like for what? For people to be able to make. It is kind of cool pictures. though that they're also scared of missing out that they're just burning money
Starting point is 00:31:55 it was Google who had the quote about we're much more afraid of underspending than overspending that was the CEO he said that the risk of underinvesting is greater than the risk of over investing like all right cool keep fucking burning piles of cash keep doing that every
Starting point is 00:32:15 every time Google turns on a new AI thing or integrates it somehow everyone's like this fucking blow you're ruining everything. And also, it's just, for me, it's an overall kind of vibe check in that, like, I'm not seeing much, whenever I see a new headline about chat GPT, nobody really cares anymore. It's like, oh, cool, they launched a new thing, I guess. Well, they're also doing a thing where they're, I feel like they announce it so early.
Starting point is 00:32:43 And all the win comes out of the sales when they, because it literally just happened with search GPT, or I don't know exactly what they're going to call it. They're launching a Google competitor. Right, which honestly, when you look at it, it does seem like it could potentially be a much better search engine. But this is what they do every time. They announce it before it's even ready. And you go, oh, damn, that does seem cool.
Starting point is 00:33:06 And you go to their website and you're like, okay, where do I get it? And they're like, we're beta testing it right now. Yeah. You're like, okay, what the fuck? And then it comes out like months later and you're like, oh, it still kind of sucks. It's the same thing with, dude, Sora was like, was that in, February? Yeah, the video thing.
Starting point is 00:33:23 And you still can't use it. I mean, they're testing it. I know some people who, like, have access to it to test it, but it's just, so they have a day of everyone go, wow, this fucking changes everything. I can't believe you have this tech. And then they go, well, we don't actually, really. Yeah, it's very, very, very limited in scope. And so I feel like they're just like shooting themselves on the foot.
Starting point is 00:33:40 They're like, we have a really cool product. Who was that football player who, like, shot himself in the dick or the leg? Odell, no. Odell Beckham, June. No, it was like Chani. He had a funny name. Chad Ochosynco? No, no.
Starting point is 00:33:55 That's a cool name. I mean, he changed it. 8.5. Ocho Cinco? Damn, that's a cool name. Yeah, I don't remember. But he like shot himself in the leg in a club. She's like, don't, jeez.
Starting point is 00:34:06 Any... Don't hear you to say, don't do that. Don't do that, dude. This episode is going to be titled, don't do that, man. Come on, man. Don't do that. Don't do that.
Starting point is 00:34:13 So, yeah, meanwhile, like you said, Open AI is kind of fucked. You sent me that long, long, long, long, long, it was very long, long, long as article. Ed Zitron. Ed Zitron. Yeah. He was pointing out that OpenAI is kind of fucked right now. He's been kind of ringing this alarm for a while and it's starting to look more and more like he might be right. That they're set to run out of cash by the end of the year and that they've only got a few options. Option number one, reduce costs or the prices of offerings. But they've been unable to reduce costs and reducing prices would only increase costs because their margins would dwindle.
Starting point is 00:34:48 and he said that the only things that they can really do because of the nature of GPT's structure is to make it do more and do it faster which wouldn't fundamentally change the product like it might need to be changed in order for it to actually... Like being more accurate. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:05 Well, because that's another thing I think he points out is that as this continues, more and more future models are going to be trained on existing stuff that's been created by previous AIs so it just kind of it reaches this um it reaches like the the infinity point on the horizon or something do you know what I'm saying it's uh I like always ask it to do little things like I'm like tell me how to can you make me a flyer for Emil and Sarah's BBQ and it's just
Starting point is 00:35:38 like at Sarah L'emiel's house bring your app to appite at your fair side duke you should actually put that out it's the thing it's just so ridiculous and so yeah I don't know the way they tout this thing as an actual useful
Starting point is 00:35:55 yeah and again it's like it is useful it just depends on who you ask and what they're using it for like for coding and shit but and the funniest thing is
Starting point is 00:36:05 it's all full steam ahead it's gonna be in all your shit I hope when they introduce it into introduced the Apple Intelligence on the iPhones and stuff that they just become unusable. It already feels
Starting point is 00:36:20 it not. I hope it just destroys all of our calendars and all of our it's sending texts all fucked up. Gang, we got to take one more quick break. We're talking moo-moo. We love moo-moo. I love moo-moo. You know I'm using it every day in my trading.
Starting point is 00:36:36 You know I'm pulling up the stock screener. You know I'm pulling up the options screener. You know I'm using all of their cool tools and features. to not only scan for stocks that I'm unfamiliar with, but to brush up on the fundamentals for the stocks that I'm actively trading. I'm checking things like market cap, float, revenues,
Starting point is 00:36:56 profit margins, institutional holders, you name it, Moomoo's got it, and then some. They got things on there that you'd have to pay for elsewhere, and it's all free, all right? And guess what? Emil here's going to tell you that signing up is as easy as pie, and it's really kind of a no-brainer considering they've got a nice welcome bonus. As we've been telling you, new users are greeted with a generous welcome bonus upon signing up.
Starting point is 00:37:24 All right. We're at an exciting boost to the trading experience right from the start. You have the opportunity to receive three amazing rewards, okay? The first one, the APY cash sweep. Enroll and activate to get 5.1% APY base rate plus 3% APY for three months. Are you kidding me? The next one, up to 15 free stocks. If you deposit $100 and you get five free stocks,
Starting point is 00:37:50 if you deposit $1,000, you get an additional 10 free stocks. Lastly, it's the transfer and bonus, baby. Get one and a half percent cash back on your initial transfer amount up to $300. That's it, folks. That's a no-brainer, baby. So follow that link in the description, get yourself set up on Mu-Mu. and beat the crowds. Yeah, that'd be fun.
Starting point is 00:38:15 Yeah, because everybody needs texts getting misinterpreted. Let's see. Yeah, and so to wrap that up, we got FOMC, the Fed Minutes coming out this week, which could put another weird twist on things because the GDP print last week was very strong. And inflation is approaching that 2% benchmark that Jerome Powell Butthole Mouth was hoping to hit.
Starting point is 00:38:42 it's looking like we're already there. So it might be the case that they drop interest rates. They pull them down just a little bit. What do you think? Do you think they're going to drop interest or cut interest rates? No. You don't think so? I mean, maybe.
Starting point is 00:38:59 I don't know. Yeah. I mean, that becomes their, that's where I think we're headed is the market is going to start to drop pretty bad either into the end of the year or next year. and then that enables the Fed to react by lowering interest rates, which then helps buoy markets and stuff. It's just, man, it's just a never-ending, it's just never-ending, folks. Market go up, market go down, interest rate go up, go down.
Starting point is 00:39:27 There's one way to make it all end. Oh, boy. All right, speaking of earnings and AI, you also had Tesla last week. they had their they had their fucking stupid earnings and let me just pull up a little bit from it
Starting point is 00:39:43 they said that they've got the building blocks in place for the next phase of the company and that phase is to help create an age of abundance where there is no shortage of goods and services and anyone can have pretty much anything they want it's
Starting point is 00:40:00 yeah I'm glad you reacted I mean I was reading it and it's just unbelievable that they even talk this way. It's just, they've just gone into full. Optimus and robots now. But it's, I mean, this isn't even optimism. This is insanity. No, optimists.
Starting point is 00:40:19 Oh, Optimus. Yeah, they say optimist. They're, they're a humanoid robot. They say it's the most advanced in the world. It's already working in our factory and we expect to have production on one early next year, which will produce optimists for all of our factories by the end of next year. Production 2 will be for customers, likely in 2026. The long-term value of Optimus will exceed that of everything else Tesla does combined,
Starting point is 00:40:44 because everyone in the world will want one, and that doesn't even include industrial use. It's just part of their main focus going forward, which is autonomy. This is key. We're making great progress with full self-driving, and most don't know just how good it is. You should try it out. This will be a massive demand driver. You'll know more about full self-driving when we unveil Robotaxie. And so then there was this analyst who tried it out.
Starting point is 00:41:10 I'm so tired of this goofy bitch. It's like... Oh, me too, dude. Oh, I just... Simultaneous. This analyst, William Stein, took their word for it. He took out full self-driving for a few test drives, and he said that they're not even close to solving autonomy,
Starting point is 00:41:28 and he gave the stock a hold rating. where you just give it a big hug and you don't let go. Yeah, I mean, but that's the thing. They have to tell us what we're seeing in front of our eyes is not actually happening. Every time it's a, you know,
Starting point is 00:41:42 also with the robots, that feels like such a enormous leap where I've not seen one, one interesting piece of footage where they're doing something with the robots where I feel like Boston Dynamics or something like that is releasing a new video every week
Starting point is 00:42:00 Look at this death machine we built. You want to see a sicket on a homeless person? We'll do it. We attached a gun to it. And meanwhile, Optimus is like, someone's operating it with virtual reality and you're seeing its stupid little hands do stuff. They're like, yeah, they're building, like the last Boston Dynamics one was that one where they built scaffolding and they made it like scale at all.
Starting point is 00:42:26 They're like, even if you run, you're fucked. We're going to kill you. It can carry a box. this scaffolding and then do a backflip like you'd be too impressed to even run away it would just be like all right yeah shoot me in the head just take my life if that thing's coming for me i'm just going to submit oh yeah me too yeah uh and and that's not to say look i'm rooting for them i am i want to i want to live in the age of abundance don't you don't you want abundance uh i don't think it actually will be though i think it'll be abundance for even if they do what they want to do
Starting point is 00:42:59 it'll be abundance for Elon Musk and his sicko friends and they'll be they'll be telling me to get a job loser well well the robots do everything which is really funny because then they say in the meantime we are still an electric vehicle maker oh yeah totally forgot about that even though that is just noise at this point we've had a lot of other electric vehicle makers into the market they haven't done very well but they are lowering their prices so is Tesla right he said the other electric vehicle makers aren't doing very well? I guess, yeah. That seems like a wild statement.
Starting point is 00:43:31 I don't know if I wish we had it on hand. We're always like sending shit to each other, but there was that great chart we sent to each other where it was basically just how other companies have completely taken over the market where Tesla had something like 90% of the electric vehicle market for so long. And it's just they've dipped below, I don't know. We're going to have to pull up the chart. Well, then you got Elon's having some weird family issues. Grimes is his, I guess, ex-wife, were they even married? I don't know. But yeah, it's pretty dark.
Starting point is 00:44:10 He's just like a fucking sad loser. Apparently Grimes' mother had to go on Twitter just to get his attention. Sandy Garasino says, dear Elon, it was nice seeing you on Father's Day. I hope he got the card that I helped X make. He was so proud of it. I'm writing here as the only way I have to reach you. As you know, my 93-year-old mother is now at end-of-life palliative care. She yearns to see and hold Claire's children one last time,
Starting point is 00:44:39 especially the youngest whom she has not yet met. She was thrilled for the kids' planned visit to celebrate her birthday this weekend today, but those hopes were crushed when the trip was canceled. I am alarmed to learn that the children cannot come as you are withholding them and their needed passport documents from Claire. it was even more troubling to see you and X on television at the Olympics in Paris yesterday after your D.C. trip earlier in the week. Where are the other children and with whom?
Starting point is 00:45:03 They are scheduled to be with their mother. They were expected to be here in Canada. I write with a grandmother's plea asking you to honor your agreement, return the children, and provide the documents they need to see their great grandmother before she passes. Some moments in life lasts forever. Please, Elam, I beg you, this is so painful for my mother and concerning for the kids. You know, the funniest part about all this, I'm sure you saw the, I'm sure you saw the, conservative guy tweet like listen up brothers i'm going to need some love this week i finally confess
Starting point is 00:45:31 to my democrat wife that uh i'm actually a conservative and she left me or whatever did you see that and like everyone's no that's great everyone's replying in the comments like hold strong brother i also had a bitch wife who didn't get it and it's just you know obviously become this uh cult of like divorced dads who uh don't understand why their wives and and children don't want to talk to them anymore but he's just become that guy but he is the richest guy in the world yeah so he's like everyone around him is like please stop be reasonable and he's just like i'm i'm dragging my child to paris and it's also funny because he's one of the biggest peddlers of conspiracy theories about a global cabal of elites and stuff when arguably he's the most elite guy there is he's the
Starting point is 00:46:19 wealthiest man in the world you think he's not fucking he's not uh he's not uh Well, I mean, that's obviously been the, that's been the, the weirdest paradox throughout all of this, the like Trump and Elon thing, where somehow these two men have, you know, these massive cult of personalities where they've convinced working class people that he's, they somehow have their back and they're like fighting against power. It is the most bizarre. Yeah. And then, so a few days ago, this is bad. This is substantial. This is scary to me because this now has, according to Twitter's numbers, 132 million views. And you know that there's people out there who believe that this is 100% real.
Starting point is 00:47:09 It's entirely, I think it uses real footage, but it is AI of Kamala's voice. Let's just play a clip of it. I, Kamal Harris, and you're Democrat candidate for president because Joe Biden finally exposed his senility of the debate. Thanks, Joe. I was selected because I am the ultimate diversity hire. I'm both a woman and a person of color. So if you criticize anything I say, you're both sexist and racist. I may not know the first thing about running the country, but remember, that's a good thing.
Starting point is 00:47:39 If you're a deep state puppet, I had four years under the tutelage of the ultimate deep state puppet, a wonderful mentor Joe Biden. Joe taught me rule number one, carefully hide your total incompetence. I take insignificant things and I discuss them as if they're significant. And I believe that exploring the significance of the insignificant is in itself significant. What the fuck, man. It is crazy. I feel like if he did this in, I don't know, 2014, you know, posted a video of calling, I guess she was maybe a senator at the time or attorney general or something.
Starting point is 00:48:16 but calling a senator or vice president the ultimate diversity hire because she's a woman and a person of color, they would be like, I'm sorry, Elon, you've got to step down. This is so weird and whatever. And just we've come so far where it's just the most bizarre.
Starting point is 00:48:34 Well, that's their new kind of racist dog whistle that's just been plaguing Twitter for the last couple years. It's gotten to the point where if anything goes wrong anywhere, at any company or in the government it's like yeah it was probably a diversity hire aka it was like a stupid black person that they hired or black woman or something that they hired just to uh just to satisfy a a quota of sorts and that's why things keep falling apart and bad things keep happening is just as just due to like i don't know white guilt or something and it's just uh it's exhausting which is very funny to vote
Starting point is 00:49:16 for to vote for candidates that promise to dismantle public goods and then when they do be like because black people yeah that's a good point they want to like gut everything so that things function way worse than
Starting point is 00:49:32 they should or ought to and then if bad shit happens it's like well I shouldn't hire that black lady to like head up the EPA yeah shit we poison the Mississippi River and it's not because we go to the EPA it's because there was a black lady in charge of Keeping it not poisoned.
Starting point is 00:49:48 Oh, no, my one job to keep the Mississippi River, not poisoned. Defund the FAA, and then when planes start crashing, you're like, black pilots, anybody? Yeah. Oh, God. Gang, we're taking one last quick little break to tell you about rocket money. You know, we all have these subscriptions that we forget about. Oh, boy, I know I sure do. So if you got any subscriptions you forgot about, maybe you paid twice for some.
Starting point is 00:50:15 and you didn't realize it. I mean, with all these streaming service, I mean, you can't even keep track. Did you accidentally sign up for Netflix a second time? Yeah. Are you somehow, I mean, I just canceled my H-Bowliddle because I don't even know. I don't use that thing.
Starting point is 00:50:30 You think I'm watching Mandalorian? No, no. Thanks to Rocket Money, I now know I was paying for it. Over 74% of people have subscriptions they forgot about. Emile sure did. You know, he was paying for that Mandalorian Plus. I don't even watch the dang thing. A month. It was insane. But thanks to Rocket Money, my buddy here and me, we're no longer wasting money on the ones we forgot about. See, most Americans think they spend about $62 a month on subscriptions. But get this, the real number is closer to $300. That's thousands of dollars a year, gang. It adds up.
Starting point is 00:51:02 So what Rocket Money does, it's a personal finance app that finds and cancels your unwanted subscriptions. It monitors your spending and helps lower your bills so that you can grow your savings. Now you can take full control over all your subscriptions. You can have a clear view of all your expenses, all right? Rocket Money has over 5 million users and has saved the total of, get this, $500 million in cancel. Wow. Saving members up to $740 a year when using all the app's features. So stop wasting money on things you don't use. Cancel your unwanted subscriptions by going to rocketmoney.com slash bays.
Starting point is 00:51:41 That's rocketmoney.com slash B-A-E-S rocketmoney.com slash base. Okay, enough of that nonsense. Then just, man, if you had any doubts that GLP won, the O-Zempic shit was absolutely crushing it, look no further than Dexcom. They make continuous glucose monitors, you know those, where they just like, just clamp them on. I don't know how you feel.
Starting point is 00:52:11 fucking live with that. Have you ever seen people with those things on? What, it's just got like needles in your skin all the time? I think I'm, is it that thing where it's like on the back of someone's arm and it's almost like, I've never known what it was, exactly. Continuous glucose monitoring. Ah. And I guess because of the rise of, uh, of Ozempic and stuff, you know, people are getting
Starting point is 00:52:31 cured of their diabetes, I suppose. Uh, and yeah, Dexcom dropped 35% on their earnings the other day because they, it's finally starting to show. up and boy that g lp1 stuff just increasingly looks like a miracle drug just does so much shit it can help with you it's like actual snake oil except for its actual it works i'm still skeptical we'll see and then you had oh boy what it just what a week my god god almighty trump was at the bitcoin conference on saturday this is my favorite i love when he goes full uh full dismissive and
Starting point is 00:53:09 you can you know the mask kind of comes off and he's like oh you idiots can we play the little clip of him talking to his little Bitcoin babies Elizabeth Warren and her goons and she's very nasty to you she hates your
Starting point is 00:53:26 people she hates everything about you will keep their hands off Bitcoin they're going to keep their hands off crypto they're going to let it grow we're going to let it grow on day one I will fire Gary Gansley and appoint a new SEC
Starting point is 00:53:40 Jerry Gensler's I guess yeah famously pretty anti-crypto or has been very vocal against it
Starting point is 00:53:46 boy they really those libertarian bitcoin guys sure love that he really can just fucking riff oh yeah
Starting point is 00:53:55 he knows how to pause for applause dude he really does he knows how to let it wow I didn't know he was that unpopular
Starting point is 00:54:07 wow let me say it again on day one i will fire gary gensler okay wait wait but i want the one where he's like that's not even the one oh the one where he signs off yeah no i got that one okay because that's the really funny before i say that i he he does say that uh he thinks that america should be the leader in in bitcoin and crypto and mining and um i believe he said that we should have like a strategic reserve and it's just, again, hypocrisy to me because the whole... I will say just last week you were calling for
Starting point is 00:54:43 why don't the Democrats step up and... They should. I'm not anti... Because it'd be so easy if you want to get some of their votes just be like, yeah, no, we're totally on board with Bitcoin too. Just say it.
Starting point is 00:54:54 It's not that easy to come out and be like, I'm going to fucking fire Gary Gensler. You cannot beat that crazy. I don't think that there is a big voting constituent. of people being like, what, what are they going to do about crypto? Yeah, Bitcoin's my big thing. You know, there's this, Richie Torres authored this letter being like, you know,
Starting point is 00:55:19 crypto is top of minds for voters in swing states and this whole thing. And it's like, everyone's going, what are you talking about? No one gives a shit. No one fucking cares. Maybe they do. Maybe these swing state people in Pennsylvania and Florida are like, but which one's going to protect my bitcoins? I just don't think so. Did you see the tweet about, well, it won't even make sense.
Starting point is 00:55:44 Forget it. Okay. All right. But yeah, it's really funny that these Bitcoin bulls, like Mike, the acid massage guy, big Bitcoin guy was texting me this weekend and he was saying, yeah, the government's going to have a strategic reserve and they're going to buy a bunch of Bitcoin. And it's like, wasn't the whole spirit of this whole project to be like completely siloed in. independent of any kind of government overreach or government, you name it. And now everybody's like, yeah, the government's going to buy some now because it's going to jack up our bags. And you were saying you'd love to get your bag jacked. I like getting my bag jacked, but this is nothing to do I get my bag jacked. Yeah. But if anything, he's saying, I'm getting rid of government regulators who are going to

He plays the hits. He wants to. He wants to. So what does he call her, um, uh, Pocahonti? Pocahontas?
Starting point is 00:57:17 Yeah, Pocahontas. Does he still call her Bocahontas? I think she's not really in the news that much, so. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He doesn't really have a opportunity to. Oh, man. Well, oh, geez, man.
Starting point is 00:57:27 Should we check in on Joe Biden real quick because this was killing me. This was just from, uh, late night dispatch from the White House pool. President Biden had an exchange with reporters as he was returning. to the White House. Mr. President, how about your legacy for LGBTQ Americans? Well, I'm very proud of my position. I was the first guy to come out for gay marriage, the Obama administration. My dad was dropping me off to get a license to be a lifeguard in the city.
Starting point is 00:57:51 We got out of the car in the center of the city. And when we get out of the car, two guys leaned in and kissed each other. I'd never seen that before. I looked at my dad and he said, Joey, it's simple. They love each other. It's simple. That's my position. okay that's a yeah i say bring him back in the race i miss him already i miss him too i just
Starting point is 00:58:14 hope that he um i hope he dies in peace huh okay yeah no uh do i hope i hope he dies in peace we hope everyone dies in peace except for my enemies and i hope it's just a little bit annoying I hope they die in piss. Now, geez, oh, geez, wheeze, wow. He also had Citron, Andrew Left, who I hate because he fucked up a stock that I was in years ago. He's getting charged by the SEC, fraudulent conduct relating to 23 companies on at least 26 separate occasions. He apparently would brag to colleagues that some of them. These are the short sellers.
Starting point is 00:59:00 Yeah, one of them. Yeah, in case you're wondering, they're like, they're putting. putting together the reports being like, get out of this company now, it's all a sham. Yeah, and so what they do is they usually establish their position and then they take to Twitter or they take to CNBC, usually both, to explain why. And they've got a research report and whatever.
Starting point is 00:59:19 And after a while, they've become so renowned for either being correct or at least being able to move markets that that kind of lends itself to a form of manipulation, I guess, and there was a quote that they had from him, or from what the SEC said in the complaint that he would brag to colleagues that some of his statements were especially effective at inducing retail investors to trade
Starting point is 00:59:47 based on his recommendations and said that it was like, quote, taking candy from a baby. Ooh, ooh. What are you taking candy from a baby for anyway? Shouldn't a baby not even have candy? Because candy's good. Yeah, but like...
Starting point is 00:59:59 Just like money's good. What are you taking money from a retail investor for? We need to come up with a new slogan. Why? You know, there's got to be something easier than taking candy from a baby. Also, babies famously have a strong grip. That's true. They do have a pretty strong grip.
Starting point is 01:00:11 So. And yeah, it's like, why would you brag about it being so easy? You're more bragging to me that you're evil. Oh, it's like taking candy from a baby. No, I don't think they care. Whoa. That's the whole point. All of these guys, like, internal texts and emails are basically just gleefully reporting on themselves.
Starting point is 01:00:33 Took him a long time to get this guy, though. They accused him of engaging in a $20 million multi-year scheme to defraud followers by publishing false and misleading statements regarding his supposed stock trading recommendations. But I just, I think that it's a little bit hypocritical because he's not doing anything necessarily different than what Jim Kramer or Josh Brown or any of the talking heads on CNBC do. they have people come on there and they talk their books they say what they're shorting or what they're long but i guess it's more the intent and the um the coordination because they say that he coordinated with hedge funds to disseminate these short reports and information to be posted on twitter uh the timing they coordinated with hedge funds and enabled the hedge funds to trade in the targeted stocks before before the reports were disseminated so right so they're getting in before they're getting in before they
Starting point is 01:01:31 before they release the information. Yeah, and they're saying that in exchange for sharing his planned announcements with the hedge funds in advance of posting them publicly, they would pay him a portion of their trading profits. That's a huge allegation to say that he's coordinating with hedge funds and they're paying him for it. Like, that goes beyond what I was just saying. We've got to do financial fraud, man.
Starting point is 01:01:52 That's where the real money is. You know, I would if I could. I really would. If you're out there and you can help us do financial fraud. Yeah, let us know. Let us know. Let us know. We're discreet.
Starting point is 01:02:04 So discreet. I want to say shit. I want to say shit. Ben's got loose lips, I will say. My lips are tight as hell, man. Look at these things. Yeah, but as soon you're going to be singing like a canary. Do canary sing a lot?
Starting point is 01:02:16 As soon as the SEC gets you in a back room. You're going to be telling them the whole thing. Are they waterboarding me? It was a hollow-o-eel-old idea. Or are they threatening me? I don't even think you wouldn't even need to get waterboarded. I think I could handle getting waterboarded. That would just hold my breath.
Starting point is 01:02:31 You would never be able to handle getting waterboarded. I'm probably right, but I think I could. What are you going to waterboard me and see if you find out? Have you ever seen the videos of guys saying exactly what I'm saying? Yeah. I could handle it. And then they do it. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Starting point is 01:02:45 There was conservative guys who would basically be like, it's fine to waterboard Iraqis or whatever. And then people would be like, that's actually insane. You would never be able to handle it. And they're like, fine, do it. and they come in, it's instant. The water starts spawning. They're like, knob,
Starting point is 01:03:03 I'm wrong. It's a horrible fucking thing. Because all you're doing, not all you're doing, but they lay you down at a decline, right? And then they put a towel over your head so you can't see when the water's coming.
Starting point is 01:03:17 And then they just start dunking it on your face, right? But I also think your mouth is kind of covered with a towel or a cloth or something. So it simulates the feeling of drowning. Right. And their whole point is like they're actually not drowning, but it's like, but functionally they are.
Starting point is 01:03:30 Yeah, yeah. Man, whatever happened to good old, like, I don't know, electrocuting people. You know what the sickest part about it is that... Torture? Not like cool sick. Oh, oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:43 Like sick and depraved. Sure. Is that someone, like, thought that up. Someone was over at Langley being like, I think I figured out how to make it seem like you're drowning. What, should we dunk their head in the toilet? No, no, no, no, no. No, get me a cloth in an inclined bench.
Starting point is 01:04:02 That's disrespectful to the toilet. And then they were like, we got to start doing this to everybody. Yeah. This is going to be great. It's going to work. It's going to work. We're going to get so much information from these guys. I think that wraps it up, man.
Starting point is 01:04:16 We got some other stuff, but like I said, what a, boy, this episode just flew by, huh? This flew by like the Olympic final horse of the apocalypse. Maybe we should at least blast this guy out because it's, it's just a fun little. The Trump, WTF? Yes, exactly. Yeah, yeah. Well, and before, I mean, I'm sure. Oh, and the guy on Fox who can't talk?
Starting point is 01:04:39 It has been a little funny. Usually I find these things annoying, but it is very, I find it very funny, the weird thing. Everyone calling conservatives weird. Oh, yeah, now they're losing their mind. And MAGA weird. And, yeah, they really are losing their minds and kind of acting even weirder. I don't know if you saw the one lady who was like, calling people weird is actually feminine and just a man and you're like oh dude you're so weird like
Starting point is 01:05:03 what the fuck are you doing uh i saw someone try to make it uh well democrats are weirder right it's democrats are weirder yeah uh but yeah there i mean i don't know how someone didn't think about this earlier and just but it's it's the only thing i really don't like is like Hillary Hillary Clinton tried to get in on it and she's like yeah they are and it like, no, Hillary, this one's not for you. You are sicko, and we hate you. You can do it, baby. I love you so much. Plagic. And this bad news, bad things are happening. Uh, uh, mom, I'm sorry. Mom, I didn't do a ball.
Starting point is 01:05:45 You can do it, baby. I love you so much. What could the context even be? And this bad news, bad things are happening. Uh, how? I mean, he just gets up there and fucking cooks. I mean, there's not, I don't, it is a really special. I do also like this guy, the guy who just can't talk. This is on Fox.

She's nowhere to be seen. And wow, maybe it's because Joe Biden's really weak right now. She doesn't want to be seen anywhere near him. It's almost as if she's throwing him under a yellow school bus.
