So Elon was giving his speech.
Yeah, of course he's giving his speech.
But I'm going, hold on a second.
I mean, my head was spinning, trying to, like, it's like inauguration, Nazi salutes.
This is unambiguous.
I mean, you even hear his dumb little, he hits it so hard.
He's hitting it like you would hit the Kwan or whatever.
But we're all just like, give him the benefit of the doubt.
Okay, he's highly autistic.
He probably didn't mean to do that.
He probably didn't mean to hit the hardest Nazi salute you've ever seen since 1944.
oh he's the smartest man on earth he's a total genius but also he makes really stupid mistakes
all the time well which is it i know is he a small bean or is he the smartest guy in the world
small bean yeah that's the most millennial thing that's what they're doing the like
yeah he's i'm looking at town with bed ain't on tell me what's going on tell me what's going on
Too bad in me
Tell me what's going on

No
That's got to why not
All right
Hi everybody
Before we even get started
We gotta hit you with a Boston
You're so close to being sold out
We can taste it
We can taste it.
So if you're in the northeast area generally,
if you're in the continental United States,
buy a ticket to that.
That means excluding Hawaii and Alaska.
If you're in Hawaii and Alaska, do not buy a ticket.
Continental U.S. is where all breakfast is served.
But if you want to buy a ticket, you live in Idaho.
Get on over there.
Come get one.
And we're so close being about announced another date,
so just stay tuned, everybody.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's going to be on the West Coast.
We also always forget to plug
the Ben and Emile Show.com if you want to see some
extra goose and gags go there.
Boy, did you just shave right before you got here?
I shave pretty much every Tuesday.
Wow. Your skin looks so smooth.
Thank you.
Folks, he's absolutely glowing.
Check out the Trader Treehouse. Check out
my substack. And now we're going to get into the episode.
Oh, boy, yeah. Oh, I also check out
stock twits on YouTube for our other show. We can rip.
How could I forget?
Yeah. We do that on Fridays.
So, gang, um,
Boy, oh boy, wow, what a
Boy, oh boy, wow, what a.
I had the most, uh, this has been the longest, like, four days I've had in a while
between the Trump coin and then the Melania coin and then, um, the inauguration and I will-
Yeah, let's get into the coin stuff a little later.
Oh, yeah, of course.
There's a new, there's a new sheriff in town.
Yeah.
And he goes by the name of Donald.
They're already saying Daddy's back.
Who is they?
I guess some of his supporters.
Daddy is back.
He was inaugurated yesterday.
Yesterday for us, three days for you?
Yeah, three days ago for you.
Would you be petty enough to have them change out the toilet seats in the official White House bathroom?
No, but you would be.
Yeah, I would.
Not petty.
On your behalf, it would be like...
We want a new one.
Well, yeah.
I can't get wrapped up in the PPP.
business already. I just can't. I can't.
These are the questions that I have.
Well, we'll get to those.
What brand do they use? We'll get to the PPP people later, maybe.
Okay. So let's just, um, should we explore the new White House.gov?
Because that was a big thing.
Well, let's talk, let's talk about this, uh, you know, this inauguration was very different,
right? Number one.
It's usually outside.
Mm-hmm. But it was like 16 degrees.
Trump said it's too cold for me.
It's too cold outside.
We're bringing it inside. Uh, you know, it's, it's usually.
I believe him that it was too cold for him.
It just, it, it, it, it, this whole thing speaks volumes to his, uh, the way this whole
election wrapped up, right.
He's trying to, he's doing the whole thing to speak to ordinary folks.
He's working at McDonald's saying, I'm going to be the one to protect you from these
evil Democrats and, and, and immigrants and pedophiles and all these people.
Uh, and then a whole bunch of people, a whole bunch of those people who, who believed him
did want to show up and come to his inauguration, but they could not.
They were left out in the cold.
Because it was all within the Capitol building, right?
He did it in the White House,
and then I think he did a second speech in the Capitol.
Right.
And not only were those supporters, not there.
Like, that's the thing.
The inauguration is usually the speech.
His speech was very different, too.
It felt very like state of the union.
His was, you know, it's usually this, like, vague.
We did it.
We're going to, you know, we're going to represent all Americans here.
And it's done in front of, they were projecting like tens of thousands, if not a hundred
thousand people to come out. Instead, it was done in the White House, surrounded by, you know,
his cabinet, but more importantly, all the tech, tech oligarchs who got, they're saying,
much better seating than his cabinet. Yeah, they were in the front row. It was Elon Musk,
Mark Zuckerberg
Sundar Pichai
Wait, who's the CEO?
Satya Nadella is the Microsoft.
Sundar Pishai is Google.
He was there.
And Jeff Bezos and his sexy Latino wife.
And of course, everybody,
because everybody, we're still, at our core,
we are still a very sexist country.
Did you say Zuckerberg?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
He was staring at her boobs.
No, did you say Zuckerberg already?
Yeah, I did.
Zucker, Korn.
He was there.
And then for some reason, actually not surprising to me, but Ian Miles Chong, the Malaysian, the Malaysian raisin, they're calling him.
Is that what they're calling him?
Yeah, that's what they're calling him, the Malaysian raisin.
He tweeted an AI-generated video of Jeff Bezos's wife, like, taking off her shirt and, like, flashing her boobs to everybody.
And RFK's, like, going, blah, it's like this weird AI.
thing, and he just captioned it, AI is wild, man. Like, dude, what kind of, what part of
horny? I don't know where to put that on like the map, the graph of horniness, you know?
Oh, she does, it's not boob. It's not like actual breast. It's just, uh, what is it?
She's in her bra in the end. Oh, okay. Wow, AI truly is wild. The end Miles Chong.
Thanks for, thanks for your, uh, but yeah, he went full. I think he, the quote was, I was saved. I was
saved by God to make America great again, which...
Which is funny, because he didn't put his hand on the Bible.
Well, that's because he respects it too much.
As it turns out, you're not legally obligated to do that.
It's not part of the rules.
Especially if you respect the Bible so much, you wouldn't list one...
Yeah.
Put your hand on a Bible.
Yeah, his...
I was listening on the radio to his secondary speech, and it was...
I remember, I'm paying attention the whole time, but I'm like,
wait this is all one
I mean obviously we know him by now
it was all one big
rambling
jumbled mess of just
he never stops
it's just and then they say you know
this was bad and
he was just from one topic to another
about all his enemies and stuff and it just
oh and then like contradictions
he's the you know this peace seeking
guy but then
talking about how he's going to
destroy Mexico
and like, yeah, just
absolute crazy shit.
But yeah, it's, the vibe shift
is complete. I mean,
just the
the difference between 2016
and 2024 of, you know,
there was that kind of, at least,
facade of resistance
between the tech community.
And now
it's just
a million, million dollar donations
to the inauguration,
running down to Mara Lago,
to meet with them and talk about the future.
Because they know.
They know that the entire party,
my,
my,
I wonder and I hope that when he dies,
Trumpism will truly die with him
because I don't think that any politician
has the same,
nobody's got what he's got.
Yeah,
nobody's able to.
We're lucky he's so old, I will say.
Very lucky.
We'll see.
He seems to be hanging on.
Yeah.
He said,
let's play this clip.
He said that Elon and his computers helped him win Pennsylvania.
This was bizarre.
I don't know what, like...
My assumption is that he meant, oh, Elon knows so much about computers generally
and helped us, like, avert the Democrats being able to use them.
Vote counting.
Well, let's just play.
Yeah, the vote counting machines.
To Pennsylvania where he spent like a month and a half campaigning for me in Pennsylvania.
And he's a popular guy, and he was very effective.
and he knows those computers better than anybody,
all those computers, those vote-counting computers,
and we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide,
so it was pretty good.
All those vote-counting computers?
That one I can't even get wrapped up in.
I don't know.
I love that he had the village people,
not the actual village people,
but some guys dressed as the village people
came out to perform the YMCA.
They had the biker, the Indian,
and I just, do they know that it's like the first original gay anthem?
No, it's not. It's cool and based.
You're right, it is actually based.
That was cringe of me to say it wasn't based.
Yeah, so, oh boy.
Right before leaving, though, Joe Biden pardoned his entire family, like everybody possible.
And everybody's scratching their heads.
Well, why do you do that?
Well, because Donald Trump said he's going to go after all of him.
He's going to like a...
I don't, yeah.
I don't blame him.
I don't necessarily blame him.
I also don't think he's a...
If Donald Trump wants to go after your family, I don't think it's going to...
They're not really like respecting law and procedure here, so I don't know.
Yeah.
Well, so let's see.
He immediately...
So many things, folks.
So many things.
I mean, I just can't get over.
It's really hard.
to stay away from the politics here.
This is obviously a show.
Since we started,
we've been covering all these big economic things
and the merging between
big tech, CEOs,
all of this and the Trump administration,
it's going to be hard to...
Ignore.
Untangle these things.
It's just impossible.
Yeah.
I mean, I saw someone
on our Reddit thread posted some...
Maybe you saw something about how
you know, maybe it's time that they stop using Twitter now that Elon's done this thing.
And I'm like, look, they've, every, everyone on that stage, I mean, Sundar Pichai, Elon Musk, Tim Cook, Jeff Bezos, Zuckerberg, Sam Altman.
Everything.
Yeah.
The Logan brothers.
I mean, where am I supposed to get my entertainment?
But there's no way to, there's no way to like engage with the internet or social media apps or like tools.
or like tools of electronic communication
without engaging with these oligarchs.
I mean, I don't know what, yeah.
Hey, gang, we want to take a quick break
to talk about business.
Mind your business.
Start your business.
Stand on business.
Yeah.
2025, new year, you know,
you're thinking, how am I going to make this year mine?
How am I going to grab it by the,
horns. Well, you know, if ever there were a better time, there's no better time than right now
to start a business. You've been putting it off? Why don't you go ahead and say, you know,
this is that old saying. The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. Second best time,
today. That's why we're talking about Shopify. That's exactly right. Shopify is how you're
going to make it happen. We were those people once. We said, what the heck are we doing? We had no
idea what we're doing. You know who made it easy? Shopify. Shopify. Okay. We had no idea.
how to start an online store.
We had no idea how to sell merch
at a live show.
We had no idea how to do any of these things.
Shopify was there for us.
Yep, makes it simple.
We were able to launch our online store.
We were able to bring our POS system
with us to all these live shows.
Yeah.
Able to get paid quickly.
Yeah.
You get your store up and running easily
with thousands of customizable templates.
You don't need any coding or design skills.
All you need to do is drag and drop.
They're powerful social media tools
that you connect all your channels
and create shoppable posts
and help you sell everywhere people scroll.
They make it easy to manage your growing business.
It made it easy for us.
We were a couple regular old nincompoops.
Knew nothing.
And that's the technical term.
When we had problems, this guy called up Shopify,
a person, a human person.
Said, hey, it's me, the guy who knows nothing,
the regular nincompoop.
Yeah.
And it's me, Shopify.
How can I help you, sir?
Please stop cursing at me, they said,
because Emil wouldn't stop cursing at them.
But so, yeah, you know,
It's a new year.
You got to get going, folks.
With Shopify, your first sale is closer than you think.
Hey, Ben.
What?
Established in 2025 has a nice ring to it, doesn't it?
Established in 2025.
Yeah, it's a quarter century.
It's a nice round number.

Yeah, I agree with you. I mean, you can't avoid any of these things unless you are relegated to blue sky, which let's be honest, folks, is a joke, right? Come on. Come on. Come on. Let's get serious here. We have a blue sky account. Follow us on there.
I started one, too. It's just like the vibes were off when I got there, first off. And I haven't popped back in since. But I saw, I mean, so TikTok also went away and came back. Oh, the TikTok CEO was there too.
yeah um but uh some i i saw a ticot of this woman saying what is with instagram just promoting
gooning content to to men she probably doesn't know about the goonicide she it's actually a big
deal to a lot of my mom is probably scratching okay so what's gooning then what is gooning and he
goonicide what is what is can you explain to my mom what gooning is just jacking off straight to the
camera see address her gooning's just jacking off her
really long time and not necessarily coming. Yeah, there you go, mom. My mom actually, so we did a
live stream in lieu of the Trump coin thing happening and my mom called me and spoke to me on the
phone the next day and she goes, she goes, so I don't get it. Are your fans like, are you telling
them to buy that thing? And I said, no, not at all. I'm delivering the news, we're delivering
like this breaking story to them and underscoring how unprecedented it is
and how crazy it is. And she goes, right, but I just, like, I was
watching the chat and people are just saying, oh, pee-pip-poo and
toilet guy and book guy. And it's like, are they even paying attention to what you're
saying? Do they even care? No, they don't care. They just want to hang out with Mr. Book and
Mr. Pooh. Yeah, that's it. They, uh, as she's saying it, I'm just like trying so hard
not to laugh. I'm like, boy, I can't begin to unpack the layers of like irony among our
among our viewer and listener base to explain that, no, they're getting it and they're
paying attention and they care. It's just that they're also funny and silly and stupid.
Should we get to maybe the biggest, the thing that's been on all your feeds, the one that's
the salute. I mean, yeah, we can jump around. This one, you guys have all seen it. Find it, Jim.
while we talk about it.
You guys have all seen the...
So there was this guy named Hitler, right?
And in World War II, Hitler did a bunch of really naughty things.
And he had this special way of addressing his fellow...
Well, no, he repurposed a lot of things, the swastika.
Yeah, that was an Indian name.
And then he, you know, the Roman salute.
But, you know, it started with...
I think it started with Mussolini and like the Romanification of fascism,
fascism and bringing that whole idea back.
And it became...
But no one.
one thinks of that as a Roman salute anymore.
Nobody.
You know why?
If they say they do, they're fucking liar.
Yeah.
Don't think of the woman salute.
So Elon was giving his speech
because he's getting...
That's what's even more.
It's just like, yeah, of course he's giving his speech.
But I'm going, hold on a second.
Why the fuck is he...
He's not an elected...
He's not elected.
Why?
I mean, I know why.
Because he's part of the whole fucking thing now.
The one I sent you,
let's use that one, because this is from a right-wing stand account that sent it to me.
I'm perfectly fine with using their most generous read.
He said the fake news and their minions are trying to say that Elon must did a Nazi
salute at a Capital One arena.
They removed the audio of Elon saying, thank you.
And he concludes by saying, my heart goes out to you.
It wasn't a Nazi salute.
He was saying, thank you.
This is why you lost.
And I just want to say thank you for making it happen.
Thank you.
my heart goes out to you
it is thanks to you
in this one they cut out
because they pay into the crowd
he turns around and it seems like he's like doing it to the flag
or the back of the crowd or whatever
but my god
this is the most
this is one of the most like
two plus two equals five shit I've ever seen
they
anyone defending this
I mean, you're, and people are posting the photos of, you know, Democrats or anyone who's, like, got a picture of them kind of looking like this.
And it's oftentimes when you go back and watch the video, they kind of made some kind of thing.
And they caught him with a, they caught him with a still image of this.
Yeah.
That's the same thing.
This is unambiguous.
I mean, you even hear his dumb little.
He hits it so fucking hard.
He's hitting it like you would hit the Kwan or whatever.
What's that dance that they do?
The neney.
And I mean, here, I send another one to the,
He's whipping and nay-nay and so hard.
It's funny because it seems like people on the left
are willing to be like,
this is clearly a Nazi salute.
And people on the far right are also able to be like,
hell yes, this is a Nazi salute.
We got him.
And here's Nick Fuentes.
I don't fucking hate Nick Quintez.
And then the like straight up,
like that was a serious Roman.
It wasn't even like a subtle, like a wave,
like one of these, like a,
Laura Ingraham.
Number one, Laura Ingraham did that.
That was a straight up
like Sig Heil
like loving Hitler energy.
That was like a straight up
with intensity
Roman salute.
And then the like...
I mean, what bothers me the most is I've seen a couple people do the...
This is a highly autistic individual.
They're going the abelism route.
If you're making fun of him, he clearly
makes some kind of
erratic and
unusual movements and
it's like please
do okay fine if he had
if that was all that happened
but he didn't you know spend all
his time aligning himself with the
the Jews will not replace
this party the you know
tweeting support of the far right German
party AFD you know
all of this bullshit
replying to white nationalists
and saying like interesting just pardoned all the
January 6th guys, a lot of guys who had shirts on, like Camp Auschwitz, but we're all just
like, give him the benefit of the doubt, okay? He's highly autistic. He probably didn't mean to do
that. He probably didn't mean to hit the hardest Nazi salute you've ever seen since 1944.
Yeah. He, uh, I, there was a part of me that thought that it was an intentional troll on his
part, on Elon's part, that he's just like, you know what? Fuck it. I'm in power now. I can do
whatever I want. And I just, I think he definitely does get off on, on watching the media squirm.
And look, if that is the case, he's 100% successful.
He's 100% successful.
But it's not trolling when, like, you just brought up his, like, you know, platforming and bringing more engagement to posts by commenting on them, you know, curious when it's like the most white nationalist, racist bullshit you've ever seen.
Yeah.
Can we just like, you can't give him that kind of cover.
that's um because but even even just no matter what it became the number one story and it totally
uh eclipse Trump and everything that Trump's done every the biggest story is Elon throwing that up
I mean that's a pretty big deal it is a pretty big deal yeah it is absolutely and that's the sad
part is that there are a lot of mainstream people
defending. I mean, the ADL coming out and saying like, look, maybe give him some grace,
okay? We got to be... It's pretty weird up there. Yeah.
What the fuck? Yeah. So I really like the fact that, um, oh, he's the smartest man on
earth. He's a total genius. But also, he makes really stupid mistakes all the time. Well,
which is it? I know. Is he a small bean? Or is he the smartest guy in the world?
Small bean? Yeah.
that's the most millennial fucking thing that's what they're doing the like yeah he's just a
he's just a small beam we can't what are we supposed to do uh adel says it seems that nilung musk made
an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm not a nazi salute but again we appreciate the people
are on edge in this moment all sides should give one another a bit of grace perhaps even the benefit
of the doubt and take a breath this is a new beginning being being being being i mean and just the
first reply. Everyone has pointed this out. Like 19 year old shouting, 19 year old says free
Palestine, anti-Semitic, must-backs, German, AFD, and anti-Semitic replacement theories,
buys Twitter, so Nazis. Load at the top. Sig hails multiple times. Give them the benefit of
the doubt. Yeah. This is just... And he even replied, thanks guys, with a crying face emoji.
Hey, gang. Got to take another quick break to talk about something very important.
especially to some of the boys out there, the men's.
Yeah, we're talking to you.
The men's.
You dealing with some hair loss, Bub?
It's okay, dude.
Look at me, it's okay.
You know, we all value different things about our appearance.
For Emil, it's his hair.
It's his number one thing.
For me, it's my hair.
It's my number one thing.
We can't sit here and tell you, hey, don't worry about hair.
Yes, because we're blessed.
We know how important it is.
Yeah.
Okay?
You know, but if you're a guy and you really care about your hair

Very nice.
You know, if it makes me ablest to make fun of Elon Musk, then to fucking stamp it on my
forehead, I'm ablest. All right? Because Elon Musk fucking sucks and I hope the funniest thing
in the world happens to him. Did you see Sam Harris revealed why they're no longer friends?
Yes. It's pretty good. So Sam Harris is some, I don't know, he's a podcaster guy.
and he and Elon Musk used to be the best of friends
and apparently they're not anymore
and Elon trashes him on Twitter all the time
any chance he gets
but Sam Harris wrote a thing on his
I forgot what medium or whatever
his blog
he wrote that
Elon Musk and Sam
had a bet
right before COVID really hit
they bet Elon was going to pay a million dollars to Sam
Harris and Sam Harris was going to pay him like a, what, a really expensive bottle of tequila
because they're obviously very economically on different sides. And the bet was that there
would be more than 35,000 cases nationwide. And I mean, he goes into detail, but he says
when it was apparent that it was going to be way more than 35,000. I think he tried to walk it
back and say, like, look, I'll take 35,000 deaths or whatever like that. And Elon was like, no,
no, no, no, no, no chance. And he lost. And then, he lost. And then.
he just, like, when Sam Harris was like, well, it looks like I won the bet, Elon just
never talked to him again.
He's the most petty man in the world.
Oh, yeah.
It's just, yeah.
It's, yeah, I mean, here's the thing.
Elon ending his friendship with Sam Harris, because Sam Harris pointed out that Elon was objectively
wrong about something is in Elon's entire personality in a nutshell.
I think someone logged on to the video game he plays and saw that as his account.
was active while
while he was at the inauguration
meaning someone else is playing for him.
No fucking way.
Yeah, some streamer did it.
Oh, my God, dude.
Just what a pathetic...
Oh, God, he bugs it.
Just his awkward, stupid fucking,
like, constantly chubby guy
adjusting his ill-fitting clothes
and just...
Anyway...
Yeah, we could spend all day talking about...
The good news is we did get a new
Marine One helicopter.
That was cool back in August.
Everybody just kind of glossed over that, but we got a new one. And that was exciting.
I won't even bore you with the details on that.
Just know it's sick. Just know that we got a new one. Let's see.
Maybe we should talk about the coins real quick, because we obviously went live after the Trump
coined, which was... Well, wait, wait, wait, wait. Let's talk a little bit. Let's, before we move
on to the coin, let's cover some of the things that he did. He signed these executive orders.
Well, the president has certain powers that he can, you know, he can accomplish things without Congress.
There's always this kind of argument between people of what the president actually has the authority to do.
Depending on who's in office, there's always this, there's this thing, I think it came about during the Obama administration, the Green Lantern theory where people were like, give him a break.
He can't do everything you want him to do.
But people point out that the president does actually have a great deal of power.
The American prospect, which I love, a few elections ago, set out this thing called the
day one agenda, which was, it's very impressive.
They compiled the list of all the things the president does actually have power to do.
It's got pretty high HP.
If they wanted to actually enact real change, they could.
Don't listen to them when they say they can't do anything.
Uh, Trump is flexing some of his power here on day one, doing all kinds of things.
We left the who.
We left the who.
Did you, did you see the video of it?
Uh, the videos are very funny of him, of him signing the things.
What's this one?
Oh, it's, we're leaving the W.H.O. Sir.
Oh, well, that's good. I didn't like that.
What most of them?
They took a very safe route.
They didn't have, they don't have any bad ones up there.
What is this one?
What is this one? Withdrawing from the World Health Organizations.
Ooh.
That's amazing.
Ooh. I can live with that. I can live with that. It's so weird to watch. Yeah, we withdrew from the WHO, the Paris Climate Agreement. Just in time for the bird flu. We changed the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America. You would think that there'd be some international governing body that dictates that. I don't think he did that already, did he? I think he did. Anyway, changing Mount Denali to Mount McKinley, because it's named after our great president.
right and Obama did that
in a signaling of paying respect
to the native people
I didn't realize that
Obama did that
I didn't know that he changed it
to Denali to give a little nod
to the Native Americans
but now
fuck them right
that's how we feel
you know the vibe has shifted
we're not we're not
we're not doing any of that
we're you know manifest destiny
Mount McKinley baby we're back
he parted nearly
all the rioters
who stormed the Capitol
on January 6th, close to 1,600.
Some people are worried that he's going to start some kind of,
I think this seems like a little bit of hysteria to me,
but I've seen people floating the idea of them starting
the paramilitary groups out of these guys,
which I would find very funny,
because these, they're not sending their best
when it comes to the capital rioters.
I mean, dude, the videos of like...
Paramilitar to do what?
What are you going to do with 1,500 yucos?
There are a bunch of bozos.
Yeah, true.
The video of the guy climbing and falling, I mean, he falls far.
But, yeah, I'd love to see them turn that into a little.
Yeah.
We closed the border.
No, no, no.
We didn't close the border.
Isn't that one of his executive orders?
Is it like the border's closed?
He declared a national emergency, which Biden did as well.
that's going to free up more resources and everything.
He did all kinds of things related to the cracking down on administration.
He declared a national emergency at the U.S.-Mexico border.
And then there was 10 executive orders.
He also said he's trying to get rid of birthright citizenship.
If your both parents are illegal citizens?
Or if both your parents weren't born here, then you don't get to be a citizen.
Yeah, exactly.
Even if you were born here.
He's not saying if your parents are American citizens and they have a kid.
Yeah.
You're not.
Yeah.
This is all, you know, he's also trying to label, not trying to.
He's labeling Mexican cartels as terrorist organizations.
Yes.
Which a lot of people are, you know, that's a signal of like if we want to go into Mexico and commit acts of war, we can do that without.
Congressional.
Congressional approval.
Important to note, all these immigration.
actions are being taken while migrant crossings along the border, four-year low.
He also said federal workers have to go back to the office five days a week.
And when he was asked about, he was asked, okay, so does that mean that we might use military
force done in Mexico? He said, I don't know. Stay tuned. Stranger things have happened.
Cool. I mean, I'm all about giving the cartels the what for because fuck the Mexican cartels.
I mean, they're, they're monstrous, absolute, terrible, terrible people, but my guy, I don't think it's, I don't, I am not all for sending, sending groups of Navy SEALs or something over the Mexican border.
Yeah.
This is just, obviously, going ahead and gutting racial equality policies, dismantling all D, all policy protections.
He's kind of kicking the can.
the tariffs thing against Canada and Mexico.
He's not, he hasn't really
made a actual move there.
And then he terminated
all the funding for the
inflation reduction act stuff.
A big part of that is the
electric vehicle chargers.
This is just,
you know, this is bad
for American car companies. You know, they
invested heavily into the
electric vehicles.
We talk about
it all the time, how China's eating our lunch over here with the electric vehicles. I mean, I
don't know what the move is here. It just seems like petty... Everything is all the oil,
because he even said drilled, baby drill, shutting down the wind farms, you know, turning on the
pipelines. But it's also just like anything Biden or Obama did, no matter if it aligns
with him or not, he's got to roll it back. A big one was Biden's executive order.
14...
14087.
This was put in place
to lower the cost of prescription drugs
for Americans.
He just cares about the American people,
so he's got to roll that one back.
Well, it's because it's gay.
Yeah.
Did you see...
You know, I saw people like
Jake Paul tweeting out,
like, if you listen to Trump's speech
and you don't love him,
you're against America.
Yeah.
Just like, what do he...
This guy doesn't give a shit about Americans.
Um, obviously he's, you know, signed another executive order establishing Doge, the Department of Government, government efficiency.
Uh, we'll see what happens there. There's already lawsuits against, um, Doge Vivek is on the way out because no one, no one comes for Zach Morris and Corey Matthews, uh, which he's running for governor of Ohio.
Yeah.
Godspeed. Wish him luck.
Godspeed, Vivek.
You got any more?
Godspeed.
All right, folks. We've got to take another quick break to talk about clothes. Clothes are important, right? We just had Christmas. Did you just get another mug or something you didn't really want? Well, you know, I don't blame you. Uh, you know, you really, what you really wanted, what you really deserve this year? Some chubbies. The clothes make the man. The clothes make the man.

Those were the biggest ones I saw. I just,
my head is spinning. There's so much, there's so many things happening.
It's, it's hard to even.
Nobody, nobody got, well, yeah, let's play the clip of him shouting out his own huge son,
who I think is probably a spoiled little shit.
Dude, just this move.
Oh man, he just looks like the biggest cock sucker of all time.
And then I have a very tall son.
named Barron. Has anyone ever heard of him?
He's so tall, his suit jacket looks like a
fucking trench coat.
I feel like...
We knew the youth vote. You know, we won the youth vote.
vote by 36 points and he was saying dad you gotta go out and do this one of that one and
we did a lot of them and he respects him all he understood him very well and he said dad you gotta go
out do Joe Rogan do all these guys that we did I just think of that fucking Aidan Ross kid
who can't even pronounce fascist what's a fascist what is an example of a fastest
but that's the thing it's all it's all vibes to them no any of these people Jake Paul they're
not going to look at these and go like oh wow maybe he doesn't you know maybe he doesn't care about
ordinary Americans why is he why is he rolling back lowering the cost of prescription drugs right
it's just vibes it's it's it's the top banker saying you know I can call everyone pussy at the
office now that's all they care about yeah they do not
they don't care about policy.
No, they don't. They really don't.
It's just about being in control again and be able to go,
shut up, you're being gay.
That's stupid and gay.
It's all it is.
So when I see Barron and I see his smug little dipshit face,
I just think this is a guy who doesn't know anything about anything.
He's just a, what is he, 19 or something?
18, 17?
I mean, who knows?
He might, if we can take Trump at his word,
he might know a little bit about
the online ecosystem
Oh, he knows so much
And he clearly fucking
He's 18
He knows so much about
I mean he
Well, you just went from saying
He doesn't know anything to him
No, no, I mean
He knows a lot about just like online
And I bet he calls people
The N-word on 4chan and stuff
Yeah, to be fair
He probably knows more than I did at 18
Yeah
So
And he helped his dad win the presidency
I'm sure Aiden Ross
and all his little fucking butt buddies
made millions of dollars on Trump coin.
So you want, let's talk Trump coin.
Let's talk Trump coin.
So we obviously, if you want to really in-depth,
we talked about it on our live.
I don't want to rehash all that.
But, you know, this is just gone so much crazier.
I believe it was within 24 hours.
Trump took a huge dip.
Trump coin took a huge dip.
And people are pointing out because Melania coin dropped.
And some of the money was coming out of Trump coin
because people are saying, well, geez, I got to buy my Melania coin.
I bought some Melania coin.
But then I immediately was like, I don't want to do this.
It all just makes you feel bad that this is what the economy is now.
And so at that point, that was Sunday.
Yes.
This is all before he even takes office.
Just huge grifts.
No one's ever seen anything like this.
You know, we made poor Jimmy Carter sell a fucking peanut farm so he could take office.
That'd be a conflict of interest.
And I mean, the fact that he did it before becoming president really does shield him from any and all accountability.
Because if anybody ever tries to come after him, which nobody, nobody ever will.
Let's just be clear here, folks.
Nobody will come after him for this.
And if you do, hope that you enjoy the piss hitting your own face because you will truly be peeing into the wind.
And it'll blow right back in your face.
Because he'll be able to say, well, I didn't when I was a private citizen.
Anyone can do that.
And yeah, there's no...
To the crypto community's credit, there are a lot of people who were pissed off about this.
So I follow the cryptocurrency subreddit just because I'm curious what they're talking about over there.
And there was a lot of people who are saying this just, he just set us back so much.
Like, this is the reason no one believes in any of the things with utility we try to produce.
this is just an awful look for crypto
and that was
Saturday and Sunday
when they were launching these things
and it's gotten so much crazier
even since that
it is open season for Rugpole's grifts
the Pastor Zoh
Pastor Lorenzo
fuck this guy
he you know
he prayed with Trump on the dais
here let's listen to him
straight from the source
Lorenzo Sewell coin
I want you to
be able to see politics become manifest, not just in a way where we're praying over political
gatherings, but we're seeing us become the hands and the feet of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Would you help me?
Would you help us in this endeavor?
Would you go and purchase the coin in order for us to do what we need to do in the ministry?
We do transportation, housing, education.
We heal medical, mental, and dental illnesses.
I need you to do me a favor and go and get that coin in order for us to account.
the vision that God has called us to do in our earth.
I give God glory for what he has done,
but we know that King's dream can only be fulfilled
if we acknowledge that people are living in a nightmare.
Yeah, so it was cut off in the beginning.
The crypto community was kind enough to send me Lorenzo,
the cash tag Lorenzo.
So I've permanently locked my tokens into a liquidity pool
so that I will never sell on the community,
but rather just earn fees as our token continues to flourish.
There are not enough.
suck my dicks they're just
this is
so fucking crazy
I just don't even know where to start
like just
coming off stage from praying
and getting out there to shill the Lorenzo
coin you can see the dollar signs in his eyes
yeah
guys gotta go out there
buy my coin
there was
the Trump advisor
did you see the Ryan Fornier
shit? No
okay so this is a
Trump advisor. Maybe we can, maybe we can Google it so we can pull it up. But he basically,
Ryan Fornier, F-O-U-R, here, I might have a link. I can, I can put in the chart.
Well, while he's doing that, I will just say, true to the crypto community, the, the shysters out
there, there was a, obviously this one was called the official Trump coin. And then you had
immediately people trying to hop on board
and fool you by having
the same logo, the same design scheme,
the official Barron coin, and the official
Elon coin, and the official Donald Trump
Jr. coin. And then, of course, obviously, we got
Melania, but it's just fucking insane and stupid.
Everyone throws official in there, and it's like, this is the one.
So this guy partners with
the TikTok official
official TikTok coin, Ryan Fornier.
And they say,
Ryan Fornier just rugged a TikTok,
TikTok coin twice for over $25 million.
He owns over 50% of the coin and was dumping equity when the market cap hit near $100 million.
Actions like this are why crypto has such a bad reputation.
Wait, what the fuck?
And yeah, so he starts pumping it.
Meanwhile, like all of these guys, it's always such a contradiction.
This is a guy who was saying that he was happy that Trump was banning TikTok at first.
And then he launches this by saying, I'm so happy that Trump is bringing TikTok back.
I'm partnering with official TikTok coin.
And so then he starts getting called out for it.
You know, the rug pull.
If you click on that.
And he goes, staying away from crypto.
I tweeted a few times today about Trump coin
and a newly created coin called TikTok.
I had someone reach out earlier
and they wanted to make a coin to support TikTok's comeback.
That turned out to be a chaotic mess because I was scammed.
And they said, bro, you rug the shit.
And he said, I'm very new to crypto.
And I promise you, I didn't rug it.
And he goes, buddy, we see.
your wallet. It's all on chain. And he says, I literally sold it because it was going down
increasingly. I don't know who wouldn't do that. So it's... What a fuck. Yeah. And it's also more
lies. He's not new to crypto. It's all that the best thing is this is all online. There's a record
of all this. There's going back to 2021. There's him urging people to hold their doge. Don't sell
doge. It could be as big as Bitcoin. And then people looked at his wallet. And about five months
ago he was
he was
buying
a shit coin
a shit coin
called
money for
criminals
MFC
uh
Jesus Christ
I mean
look at the
look at the community notes
Fornier
owned
50% of
TikTok
he bought more
to gain
trust then sold
all at once
causing a 97%
crash
you fucking moron
investors face losses
yet his post
claims he was
scammed ignoring
his major role
in the collapse
yeah dude
when you
dump all
it's always
there of the victims
it's like
one of Trump's weird student advisors
or something like that.
He's a piece of shit, though, to be sure.
Oh, fully.
I think he's got,
I think he's got domestic abuse violations,
wire fraud charges.
I mean, it's classic fucking Trump advisor shit.
I mean, he cannot hire someone
who does not have allegations.
It's just like, it's just insane.
And then, so did you see what he just,
go back to that tweet you just had pulled up?
Scroll up just a little bit.
Okay, so real fast, there was a bishop. This woman, Bishop, Marianne, Edgar, Buddy is the bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Washington. She's the first woman to hold the position. She was, did you see her little speech?
Yeah, about how. She basically just said to Trump, hey, Trump, a lot of people believe in you, but a lot of people are scared. Please, show some mercy. Remember that everybody, remember everybody's humanity. She calls out immigrants and immigrant children who are, like, worried about their parents. Did you find that to be woke at all?
No, but, dude, everything they do is...
Look at this tweet.
The woke mind virus is truly a religion.
This quote-unquote bishop belongs on MSNBC and nowhere near a church.
Fuck.
That's not from him.
It's something Ryan Fornier retweeted.

right now. You might have seen the Cuba thing. No. Cuba like the country? Yeah. I wish it was
Cuba Gooding Jr. I thought it was like, oh, is this some crypto thing? Q-U-B-A or something?
The...
The...
I don't think they have the full story yet, but I'm almost positive. It's a hack.
They got into the... They tweeted it out from an official account that Cuba coin started.
From what official account?
Like, they put it on their official Twitter and then official... I think they hacked the website
for, like, Cuba. Like, the way you see...
The Cuban government?
Yeah.
and pushed it out.
And then everyone got rugged and everyone's going,
holy shit, the country of Cuba just rugged everyone with a meme coin.
And it doesn't end there because there's holy coin as well.
Which was another, it was for the Catholic Church.
But it was promoted by the Catholic Church through a hack.
Wow.
How did I miss this?
Was this all today?
I don't know.
I'm just seeing them all.
Jesus, God.
Very innovative.
That's just what's funny about crypto
is like there are arguments
to be made for its innovative capabilities
The Cuban one is still confusing
I think they confirmed the Holy One
was a hack. So you need
to tell me the official Cuban government
has just launched. Cuba coin
rugged it. Cuba coin
2.0 rugged it.
Justice for Cuba coin rugged it.
Wow.
I mean, wow.
It's really incredible.
And look, they're exciting news.
introducing Cuba 4.0, Cuba's own
crypto coin on Solana, joined the revolution
in digital finance. Yeah. Wow.
Unbelievable.
Oh, boy.
So with Trump coin... We just got rugged
by an actual fucking Catholic church.
Holy. And y'all
was upset at me for creating a coin about
a baby with cancer and rugsing it.
They rugged in the name of God. And I rugged
in the name of a bald baby. Who's the real villain?
Well, their account was hacked,
but nice try. It's...
You're joking about how it's the scam economy.
The scam economy is here, baby.
Jesus God.
I mean, I thought NFTs were bad.
I really thought that it was over with NFTs.
I didn't think that all these new coins and shit.
I'm just, I'll be pissed if I don't make money on Lorenzo coin.
Well, so there was an interesting theory that I saw floating around there.
And bear with me, I'm going to try to explain it.
So David Sacks, who was named the crypto czar by Donald Trump, he's a billionaire.
He's a venture capitalist.
he's he's tied one of his investments or one of the things that he's an advisor or on the board
of or whatever is this this crypto investment firm one of their biggest investments is solana
curious right solana is the blockchain on which the trump coin launched and alarming
the speculation is basically that Donald Trump is doing what Donald Trump has always done
which is just lent his name out and licensed his thing
Trump Stakes, Trump University.
Trump shoes, the watch that he did, the $100,000 watch, the fucking NFTs, the trading cards.
Even before the presidency, though, like always, yeah.
Decades. The game, the board game, the book, you know, you name it.
Golf courses, hospitals, he'll sell his name for whatever you can, if you can sell it, he'll
lend you his name.
And I'm inclined to believe this, that Trump didn't really know.
He just kind of trusts, yeah, David Sacks do your thing.
David Sacks, I think, is the one behind it.
Because meanwhile, he hasn't said a fucking word about this.
I think that he probably is having a little bit of an, oh, shit, this went way too big,
way too fast more than we thought.
Not that he's going to get in trouble or anything.
But I was looking at some of the wallets on the chain.
Some of the biggest ones have fully cashed out to the tune of $30 million dollars profit.
$30 million, $36 million, $40 million, $20 million, $20 million.
million. So many people who were early on that thing just made out. So the only people,
because a lot of people out there are saying, oh, he rugged you guys. Donald Trump didn't
rug anybody. Just to be clear, not defending him. It's like hot to her. She didn't rug you.
The Paul brothers did. It's exactly right. And the Paul brothers may have rugged you with Trump
too. The people, the people who were, uh, I would bet, I would bet that Aiden Ross and the,
the Paul brothers and a bunch of it. Because,
Who else out there has a million dollars to throw it fucking Trump coin than someone like those guys who know that it's a pretty much a sure thing?
I fucking guarantee you that that little shit cocksucker, Baron Trump, gave them the address.
They gave it to all their buddies.
Probably hundreds of little fuckers out there were buying this coin before.
It's frustrating that I haven't really seen a backlash to this, which is very, very, very.
frustrating because it is such a blatant scam, disrespect to your followers and supporters,
all this shit. Also, you know, it seemed like everyone was pretty in agreement when, you know,
the Nancy Pelosi and whichever senators and Congress people were getting rich off the trades.
Everyone was like, this is fucked up and like clearly an abuse of power.
Where is the fucking outrage about this?
Yeah, all weekend.
I'm like, this hasn't even broken into political Twitter.
It's still just on crypto-fin-twit Twitter.
And I don't know if that's because crypto's still kind of a niche thing for a lot of people.
And it's a very difficult thing to even break into, although he did make it easier.
You can buy with debit or credit cards, which is just a whole other thing.
But, yeah, I don't.
I'm shocked.
The backlash has not been there.
Where's like maybe just because I haven't, I don't watch it, but like you would think that MSNBC and NPR and all these incidents, maybe it's just because they're overwhelmed by the sheer volume of things happening that the Trump coin has already fallen down the list.
The whole coin saga to me, like with Trump, Melania, Lorenzo, you know, his advisors, his advisors launching shit is a huge story to me. And I feel like it's really not getting the.
The Lorenzo coin is different because that's something that if you, if you read what he says,
said, that's just some fan.
Someone created it and gifted it to him.
But that's exactly what Ryan Fornier said.
Oh, like, these guys just gifted me the 50% of it and I just pumped it.
Right.
But it's not the same thing as like the Trump coin, which was explicitly.
Yes, but it's all wrapped up in this ecosystem of like, what the fuck?
Of course, yeah.
And like everyone near this guy is just like everyone near the U.S. president just trying to
fucking rug pull you on some crypto bullshit.
I mean, it's really, it's like a fractal.
you know, Donald Trump from the beginning was always about just like scheming, scamming,
using his name and likeness to fuck his creditors,
fuck the workers that would work on his projects, you name it.
He's always trying to just like pull the gears to extract whatever value he can get
and fuck anyone and everyone else, including his closest business partners.
And it's just like within, it's a Russian nesting doll fractal thing where it now
other people are able to utilize his name and just all of this shit.
It's all crypto and it's him and it's fucking Elon and it's just the bullshit attention and
greet.
And the way he's merged with these, so the crypto side and then the way he's merged with
these tech billionaires where he's kind of, I don't use TikTok, I haven't confirmed it,
but from what I've seen from screenshots of people using it and stuff, they've already instituted
some new censorship
censorship guidelines
that you're
you're not allowed to search for fascism
or you just like don't get the results you're looking for
that kind of stuff. I can't confirm that but it does look like
I also on the I forget what the site's called
but they like track tech bugs and stuff like that
there was a GitHub. No
go on. I'll try to find it and link it but they
they had reports of
they had reports
of people following
the Trump account
that were never that never followed it
I went and looked at mine I was not
I've never followed him and I'm not following him now
so I don't know but they're saying
they also said and I guess
Zuck admitted to this one but that they had fixed some stuff
that it was uh
it was filtering out some
like capital D Democrat
Democratic
hashtags and stuff like that
but he's
saying they fixed it.
It's just all kind of...
It's shady.
There's a lot of new control
he can have in the
communication platforms.
TikTok is not unband.
You still can't download it from the app store.
Oh, I don't know that.
It's just kind of back to the way it was originally meant to be,
which speaks to how it's this really weird
kind of political game of chess going on here,
where at first TikTok went away.
and then it's like but thanks to Donald Trump it's back
and it is it's back if you never deleted it like my mom
when the thing when it was just
when it was bricked yeah she deleted it and then
when she saw it was back she tried to download you can't download it from the
app store you still can't I've seen a lot of people commit
goon aside over that
the thing is yeah
this trump coin thing is really um it's really it's really something and i don't again i just don't
like seeing people their heart is in the right place but it's it's not correct like that
brian taylor cohen is that a comedian he's this uh this comedian out there but when the trump
coin first had its big drop he proudly tweeted out like ha everybody got rugged that's that and i'm
like, no, dude, that's not what's going on here.
Because I checked the biggest wallets.
The ones that the Trump organization controls still untouched, just as they said.
Who rugged were the people who bought in the snipers, I guess, as you would call them.
They're the ones who bought early.
They weren't gifted.
They were bought.
They actually bought them, but then probably...
D-Gen guys who, like, fucking troll.
What is it called?
Deck scanner or whatever the fuck.
Screener, yeah.
Deck screener.
Yeah, those guys are going to make money on shit.
They're going to be early to shit, get out before it.
And the more money they make, the more well-connected.
Excuse me, they become to the other assholes who are running these schemes.
And they just become more and more influential and powerful in the crypto circles.
And yeah, speaking of power, did you see Nancy Pelosi disclosed some new trades?
Oh, good.
Yeah.
Because, you know, when you're 80 fucking five and your husband, Paul Pelosi, is also of full-on retirement age,
and you're worth a quarter of a billion dollars,
why would you stop buying fucking options?
So it looks like they went long 50 of the Google 150 strike.
Basically, they're long, Google, Amazon, this TEM, which is an AI company,
and VST, which is a power company.
And of course, because TEM is one of the lower value ones,
stocks up fucking 25% today.
So just by virtue of people,
following Nancy Pelosi's
trades, she already makes money on
which is great.
Good for her. Maybe she can use that
to put some shiny
stuff on her walker.
You know, she got that walker now.
But I just
like if I was in my fucking 80s and I had
$200 million, I wouldn't
be, I would just be done.
It's a sickness. We talk
about it all the time.
It's, I, that's, that's the only way to describe it.
It's the only way to explain it.
It's, there's no reason for this.
To be in a position where you are constantly yelled at, scream dad, people hate you, for what?
Yeah, a few extra million dollars.
What is that?
What are you going to spend it on?
What are you going to buy?
Who's it for?
She actually does buy kind of sick shit, like, you know, wineries in France and St. Holmes in Tahoe.
I got to give her that.
Suck my dick, Nancy Pelosi.
She does seem to have good taste.
That fridge full of ice cream.
Yeah, and she likes the fancy stuff.
I don't blame.
I like an ice cream.
Fuck you, stupid ass.
I'll rob you.
I swear to God, I will.
Kick that Walker right out from a...
I hope you don't find me at the top of some slicked up marble stairs.
Did you see her daughters talking about...
Or maybe it was just the one daughter talking about how, like,
Joe Biden should just shut up.
because, you know, everyone, it's not confirmed,
but everyone's like, Nancy Shanked Joe
and made him step down.
And I guess Joe Biden was kind of complaining about
Nancy.
And her daughter was just like, this is not from my mom,
but I think Jill should just shut up or something.
Gill or Joe?
Jill.
Oh, wow.
Trouble in paradise.
They're all fucking, dude,
watching them all, like, come to the inauguration and fucking gladhand all the shit.
You see Obama fucking yucking it up at Jimmy Carter's funeral.
Yeah.
Don't get it twisted.
I wonder if he was just being nice and putting on airs just like, but gritting his teeth,
just going, this guy's a fucking dickhead.
Yeah, but then, you know what?
Still.
Everyone acts like he doesn't have a fucking choice, right?
Like, you see the, I posted the picture because I think it speaks volumes.
There's the picture of everyone kind of fucking glad-handed at the, at the ball.
and Bernie Sanders is just fucking alone
he's well there's that during the speech
which is right you have the choice
you don't have to fucking clap for everything
you can sit there and be like you know what
I'm really fucking against all this shit
I think we're heading down a dark fucking path
I have to be here because I'm a sitting member
of Congress but I'm not gonna enjoy it
yeah there you go
and then there's the other picture of him at the ball
everyone's fucking going around glad handing everybody
and Bernie Sanders is alone
and he's just kind of like staring off
into the distance
You don't have to fucking rub elbows with these fucking freaks.
And like, Obama, you know, you could see Trump at the funeral and say, hey, get fucked, Dick Wad.
Yeah, trip him.
Another one who's perfectly good.
He's got his, what, $35 million mansion in Martha's Vineyard.
He's got enough money to do whatever the fuck he wants.
A lot, sexy wife.
If he ever is want for cash, he could fucking, I don't know, go do a speech at J.P. Morgan or something.
You could just ask Pelosi for some tips.
yeah as well he's got to be like well he's got to be cordial he doesn't yeah no he doesn't
where and yeah it's the when they go low we go high it's like no because all that does is make you
look like you're incapable of uh it's the equivalent of saying sticks and stones may break my bones
and then you get punched in the face anyway and you know you guys rightfully had a very rough go of
trying to convince people that you were actually
a resistance party to any of this
and then they see you and it's like
you, Chuck Schumer, everybody,
just fucking yucking it up with the Trump man.
Yeah, it's not very fun.
Well,
hmm.
Look, things are going to change.
We're going to try to...
Things are going to happen really fast, too.
I imagine we'll go live
more than we were because things are just going to...
Yeah.
By the time this comes out, this is going to feel like ancient history, I'm sure.
It's like, I mean, my head was spinning, trying to, like, it's like inauguration, Nazi salutes, you know, cabinet rug pulling people.
I'm like, what the fuck is going on?
Yeah.
Entire tech billionaire class just falling in line.
Yeah.
It's a lot.
It's a lot, folks.
But at least Theo Vaughn is there.
And Theo Vaughn was yucking it out.
and having a good time.
Hey, dude, I don't know.
I just want to show up.
I don't even know what I'm doing here.
You know, I knew a Vietnamese...
He fucking plays dumb.
I knew a Vietnamese guy one time named Kwan.
And Kwan said, I could be president one day.
And he was tickling me while he said it.
And I said, I bet you could.
And fuck, this is a bad deal of an impression.
He fucking plays dumb.
I don't understand what the problem is.
I met him.
He was a nice guy.
Cool, dude.
Right.
Fuck.
And then he acts like he doesn't.
fucking understand anything. He's just like, I don't know, man. I'm just chilling at the
fucking... Okay. So we got a, we got a comment on the recent live, folks. It says, I find
this, it's from Sean Boy, 40. I find this very amusing. I'm, and I'm in no way questioning
why you're talking about it, but my question is, why should I actually care about this? He's
referring to the Trump coin. People in positions of power and in situations far more fortunate
than mine have been doing stuff like this with zero repercussions forever.
This is obviously pretty blatant, and he's the president, but still, I see it, and I'm not
even shocked or bothered, L.O.L. The rich take advantage of us, regular Joe, is day in and day
out, always will, and I don't see why this should take up my mental bandwidth over any other
case. To that, I would say, I mean, yeah, you're right. To that, I would say the scale of this
is so much bigger and so fast. The speed with which others were able to extract money,
it normally takes months, if not years, for such things to occur.
But for this to have happened so lightning fast and so brazenly,
it just speaks to how far we've come and how mask off a lot of this is.
Can you bring that comment back up?
It's also, it's a very, you're right that this kind of stuff happens all the time,
but your attitude is so
it's kind of like how we got
to how it's all so bad
we get fucked over constantly why should we even care
yeah Sean boy
and that's kind of the problem
no one gives a shit they just go like
well that's just kind of the American economy
and it is funny seeing some of those red note
things people keep posting
like Chinese people going
I don't understand
why haven't you guys revolted yet
what the hell's wrong with you
And it's very odd.
We just kind of, the American mind, I mean, we just sit here and go, I don't know.
Yeah.
Well, that's just the way it goes.
What can we do about it?
Because there's no collective action.
We're all individuals, right?
Yeah.
So, you know, oh, you know, I'm sorry that happened to those individuals.
It's going to be, it's hard to, I think because the biggest contingent of people that would want to do something are so brainwashed by the right into thinking that they are for them.
Oh, dude, the people talking about how this entire inauguration was a fuck you to the establishment?
I'm going, what a...
Yeah.
They're sitting right there, clap.
Yeah, that is the establishment.
What are you talking about?
What are you guys talking about?
Sundar Pichai, Sam Altman, fucking Elon Musk.
Yeah.
Mark Zuckerberg.
These guys, it really is...
Who do they think the establishment is?
I think they just think the establishment is people who said stop saying gay.
I think they think the establishment...
The establishment...
People who said, don't say words we don't like.
Rachel Maddow, who they're simultaneously like the media is so fucking irrelevant now.
Traditional media is dead.
And yet they won't stop talking about it.
Look how pathetic their ratings are.
Okay.
Let them fucking get over it.
Stop.
I don't think about Rachel Maddow ever.
But you do.
Oh, look how pathetic CNN is.
Why are you watching?
You are the only ones left watching it.
If right wing accounts didn't post it, I would never see a CNN.
Truly, never.
God damn, dude.
Because that's the whole thing.
It is a joke.
Like, Rogan posts a fucking episode, three-hour-long episode, it gets millions of views.
You are the majority now.
Right.
You are the majority.
You are the mainstream media.
Right.
Head and shoulders above.
And if you want to talk about any cable news network, Fox News Network, Fox News is the number one.
Yeah.
It's incredible.
That's the establishment.
Man.
Everything else is faltering.
And every, that's the thing.
like comedians act like they're like badass
because they're like,
nice, we can call things gay
and it's like, dude, you're just like dick riding.
Nothing about what you're doing is cool.
You're just like blown with the wind.
Actually, what you're doing is gay.
What you are doing, sir,
what you Dave Chappelle are doing is gay.
Yeah, Dave Chappelle, I mean, that's...
Listen, America.
Did you watch his SNL thing?
I've watched part of it, and I just was like,
oh, wow, you're gonna do the thing again
where he's like...
I saw someone talking about.
about it and I was like, okay, I'll go watch the five
minute. 17 minutes.
My goodness. It was a 17 minute monologue.
Because he's now the, he loves the way his own
fart smell. He's like, he knows
there is something, I got to hand it to him.
Whenever he talks, it has
the effect on me where I'm like, yeah, wow,
he really is a wise. He's like
the wise man on top of the mountain.
He's seen it all.
He gets it and he's espousing
facts and he smokes indoors
because he's just that.
He's transcendent.
Yeah.
But it's like, dude, shut the fuck up.
It felt, it felt very, um, it felt very Elon posting.
Hey, guys, let's, let's make sure this is a community of love and, and, and tweet positivity, you know, because everyone's aware.
And look, I was obsessed with Dave Chappelle, like, oh, yeah.
I used to watch killing them softly, like, such a great movie.
I would take it on DVD to, like, on family trips because I would be, I would be like, I would be like,
I just want to watch it again.
Like, I think it's so funny.
I thought he was the coolest dude.
Chappelle's show was so good.
Yeah, and
watching, what is it?
His past four or five Netflix specials,
just raking in fat checks to be like,
and trans people, am I right?
I mean, dude, I would tune in every time
and be like, hopefully he's gotten over that.
Maybe he's got something to fucking say.
And it would get worse and worse.
Within the five, dude, I think the last one,
it was like this fucking long walk of like a Jim Carrey story and the punchline is like
and that's what I think about trans people are like dude fuck off yeah it's not smart and
then he just ends his thing with like Donald Trump I urge you act with love what are you
talking about my guy yeah um I will say I did see the sketch um where all the black uh I didn't
see any of the sketches I just watched there's a sketch where like all the
black um mascots are getting fired by alec baldwin for some reason my rudolph is the real alec baldwin
yes my rudolph is uh anchomima um and dave chappelle is the uh he's the allstate guy and they
they have a filter on his voice so it's way lower and p davidson comes out as count chocula and he's
he it's it's funny it's funny it's it's a little bit of classic dave chappelle because he's like
look at his lips he's black because it's p davidson and he's he's he's he's he doesn't he
He goes, everybody, look at Pete Davidson's lips, and they all break. It's very funny.
I'm sure he's still a very funny guy. I think that's why it's tragic. I think he was always
like a fun guy to watch, talk about race and sensitive issues and stuff like that. And I think
that's why it was, he was, he just started punching down. You're like, wait, this isn't fun.
He's also got a little bit of the Cat Williams thing in that. Interesting. Very curious where this is going.
Sometimes when people's careers go down the toilet, they don't look inward. They just blame.
others. Like Cat Williams, this whole thing is like,
oh, no, it's because I, I
his career is anywhere about the toilet.
It was for a while. Dave Chappelle.
Oh, sure. No, but
what I'm saying is, Kat Williams is like,
thinks he's a genius because he's like, oh, no,
it's the pedophiles. It's the, he's like a
Hollywood pedophile cabal kind
of guy. And that's why, you know,
his career went off the fucking
I have no idea. Dave Chappelle is
adjacent to that, where it's like,
because he's seen and interacted
with a couple bad apples, he's like,
Oh, no, I'm wise to it now.
I understand.
It's the Illuminati.
They do, like...
Dave Chappelle thinks of the...
It's along those lines.
Oh, I didn't know that.
I just think it's sad.
Anthony Jezzelnick talks about it all the time.
I don't...
Anthony Juslin.
I don't watch...
I don't really know any of his comedy,
but I like what he says about comedians
who are, like, crying,
cancellation and stuff.
And he basically was just saying, you know,
they just don't want any pushback.
They don't like it.
They're being very sensitive to the fact
that anyone's calling them out.
Nothing bad has happened to Dave Chappelle.
No one, there's no one who would deny him a role.
It's just that some people were like, hey, you kind of missed the mark on this.
And he was like, no, I refuse.
I'm a genius.
He goes to my gym.
Dave Chappelle.
No, um, Jeslnick.
I saw him yesterday.
Wow.
And I almost, uh, I almost said something to him.
You should just say that.
Hey, I got one for you.
You should do the, go up to him and go, hey, I got one for you.
What?
I should do what?
You should say his name like you just did.
You should walk up to him and say Anthony Jezeln.
Hey, man, I do a pretty good impression of you.
People have said it's really good.
Maybe you want to go in the back and fuck each other.
Because this whole thing is out of the left field.
You didn't expect it.
It's edgy.
Yeah, you didn't expect it.
Well, so we do have a little bit of cool news.
I mean, we posted about it on our Instagram.
So please follow us on Instagram, by the way.
But there's such a bad outbreak of bird flu in Georgia.
That's the cool news.
No, no, it's coming out to that, but there's such a bad outbreak of bird flu in Georgia that, yeah, highly pathogenic avian influenza confirmed in commercial poultry flock in Georgia. All poultry activities in Georgia suspended.
We got to send our, we got to send RFK down there to investigate. No mask.
So what's going on with these chickens? What's the problem with the chickens? So what's the problem with the chickens?
On Wednesday, January 15th, the producer noticed clinical signs of aviants.
influenza in their flock. Samples were collected on the morning of Thursday, January 16th,
and transported to the Georgia Poultry Laboratory Network, or GPLN, for testing.
A positive HPAI detection was confirmed by GPLN on Thursday afternoon.
Anyway, probably not a big deal except for the fact that Georgia apparently produces 15% of all chicken
production in 22, at least, responsible for about 15% of all poultry production in the United
States. So, uh, look out for them egg prices, folks. Look out for them eggs. I, I think that the
California wildfires, because, you know, rent is the highest, um, thing in, uh, CPI in the, in the
inflation calculation. And, um, California's inflation is, uh, perhaps the most weighted on that.
And as we've seen with these wildfires, rent is going anywhere but down. Yeah. So it'll
be interesting to see. Let's save that for the bonus. Let's go to, uh, because we're,
we're, we're, we're way over here. The, the, yeah, yeah. That last thing. Okay, folks, we're going to
join us in the bonus, Ben and Emile Show.com. We're going to be talking about all kinds of
food stuff back there. We're going to go through some old TikToks that I'd like to and some
other things. Okay. See you back there. Bye.
