Starting point is 00:00:00 Good job. Yeah. So I started taking, uh, like athletic greens, not that brand, but, um, like I dunno, months ago and then kind of forgot about it. And they, and, and a sale on Amazon popped up on my feed a couple of days back. And so I got the bottle today and took a shot of it at like three o'clock way too late in the day. I gotta do it in the morning so that I have a dump at like one or two. And, uh, yeah, that's why I ended up on the can there pretty late. Just all of a sudden. Does it turn into water? Is it like that type of thing? Or you put it, you, it's powdery. You just put it in water and drink it. Yeah. No, no, but like ultimately in the end, what's your,
Starting point is 00:00:36 Oh, no, no, no, it's solid. No, no, it's solid. Yeah. Okay. Doesn't know. It's not a fucking. That magnesium or is that what I'm thinking? No, it's just, it's like vegetables basically Basically, it's like leafy greens ground up. I take a magnesium supplement to I take it before bed. Is that what I'm talking about? I don't know. I never take nothing really.
Starting point is 00:00:53 Nothing really gives me like the shit. Like I don't have liquid shit. My shit is always pretty. I mean, this is interesting content for Bitcoiners, but I want to point out that recently when there was a picture of Stephen A Smith. We talked about Stephen A Smith recently. Yeah. I still don't understand who the fuck he is.
Starting point is 00:01:12 Well, he was a, he's a basketball commentator. We're free. SPN is probably one of their lead voices and he was caught recently at a game playing solitaire instead of watching the game. Yeah. And is it, is it live action or is this is live? This is live. This is a live game. No, but is it like halftime? Like I'm going to give them the benefit of that because I don't know. There's a video of this. This is a screenshot of the video, but he's actually, it's actually during a game he's playing Solitaire. And it's interesting because
Starting point is 00:01:41 I don't know if you know this or not, but there was another picture taken of him recently that caught a lot of people by surprise. Even though the series is over now, I was actually just sent this photo. I couldn't believe it. He's, I mean, it's one thing to play solitary during a game Len, but it's entirely a different thing to go down a totally separate rabbit hole. It just has nothing to do with what your solitary. So here he is, he's watching you. This was last night. He's got you on the screen here. Unbelievable. I was shocked to see that and I was wondering if I could get your comments on this. Do you feel like you're... Is this a good thing? Bad thing? Good for Bitcoin? Is it Stephen A. Smith the shit coin? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:02:21 I have no... Thankfully he's watching me but I don't know. I have no I'm thankful. He's watching me, but I have no idea who he is. So I'm not going to be able to do the same for him. Clearly he finds the product bullshit if he's watching playing solitaire. Right. If it was exciting, if something is fucking exciting, you're not going to turn your head away. Right. But if it's fucking shit, that was the finals. right? Or that was the finals. Yeah. I think that was game probably game five, game six. There you go. The proof is the pudding. If when it's shit, it's shit.
Starting point is 00:02:55 Fuck it. Move on, buddy. Let's talk about Iran. Sure. So I'm curious because first, I like this bombing that happened on Sunday. Crazy. Bunker Busters. Yeah. I did a little bit of research, very, very preliminary research on this. Those B2s that they used to bomb. It's an incredible what they did. They took off from Missouri between a 30 hour and 36 hour round trip flight. They had to be refueled a few times there and back and each
Starting point is 00:03:26 of those B2s were carrying 30,000 to each of the two 30,000 pound bombs. Fucking massive. Think about like my car is like 3000 pounds. So it's 10 times per bomb and my mind gets better fuel mileage than those bombs. And it's incredible. Now after all this to be said though, and I know you're talking about on the beginning of the Bitcoin side of things that the piece has been made, at least ceasefire or something has been done.
Starting point is 00:03:55 Yeah. Ceasefire for the time. I mean, it's ceasefire. Yeah, they're fluid. They're fluid. So, you know, 45 maybe greater than 47 and 45 shut down an economy. Yeah. 45, there was a quote he did, I think on Twitter, but it was somewhere in the screenshot of
Starting point is 00:04:16 it. He says, the United States, he said this in 2019, the United States has spent $8 trillion fighting and policing the Middle East. Probably more than that. Thousands of our great shoulders have died or have been badly wounded. Millions of people have died on the other side. Going into the Middle East is the worst decision ever made. That was Donald J. Trump. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:36 Believe in 2019. Here he is now, at least in the United States. I think it's 2016. I think it's 2016. Oh, yeah. Still within his tenure as 45. Then I'm certain he's the one that authorized this bombing. They fucking bomb a country. It goes against everything he said. What the fuck are we trying? I'm thankful that there's something settled here. We have at least a ceasefire. Hopefully things will get,
Starting point is 00:05:04 they truly walk away and just say that's it. We're not going to fight each other. They cool off, right? Yeah. I hope so. Like it's like what's the end game here? You're going to have Russia. I don't know how involved they can get. They can't even deal with fucking Ukraine. Right? Now, granted Ukraine has been assisted heavily. It's USA. Yeah, it's USA and Europe. They can't get past that. So they are busy with that. Yeah. China, obviously, they have an interest here.
Starting point is 00:05:33 Yemen, whatever firepower they have, they are. North Korea, they do have some firepower. They're heavily involved. You know, I don't understand what the fucking point is. Israel has nuclear weapons. These guys, you can't stop them from getting it. I just don't care about this at all. It does affect us though. That's the sad part. I know it does affect us. It depends on what source you're looking at today, but it seems like Iran during their retaliatory attacks notified in advance the United States and some other parties that
Starting point is 00:06:12 they were going to attack and the United States notified Iran. And it's like, it's theater, right? And priestess in the chat saying the same thing. It's a game. It's like a game out there. And it costs lives. The Bunker Buster story, interesting, but how likely is it that it's a hundred percent true in your view?
Starting point is 00:06:30 You know, Boomer is saying the same thing in the chat. Boomer in the chat like we say. I don't know. Like I just don't believe anything anymore and I hate to say that because it's not really a productive way to live to just assume everything is a lie. But I think it is productive to be critical of everything. The problem is that being critical of every single thing you see takes a lot of bandwidth. And sometimes you just have to ignore certain things. And so, you know, this is below my line, like a wise man once said. And I find that more and more people are thinking this too.
Starting point is 00:06:58 I will point out that there seems to have been a shift in American faux-po at home. In years past, you're a history buff, you probably have something to say about this, so I'd be curious to hear your thoughts. In years past, and in eras past really, the move to unify a country was always to bomb an enemy. Because if you can find a common enemy, then you can erase fault lines domestically and even potentially among allies, right? You're in this terrafore, people don't like Trump, blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 00:07:31 We've all heard it. So you find a common ally, you bomb the shit out of them and you go on TV and give a unifying speech or a rah-rah speech about best military in the world, Americans doing it again, America is the mother of all these nations, blah blah blah. You know when that happened in 9-11 it worked. I remember when Obama caught and killed allegedly bin Laden in 2011 or 2012. That was another big moment and I remember even in Trump 1 when there was an attack in Syria I think you
Starting point is 00:08:06 know he gave an address and it seemed to unify people I went on Twitter the other night after the 10 o'clock on Saturday Trump address Twitter was buzzing so the traffic was there he was getting eyes but the unity was not everybody was sick of it they don't care about Israel they don't care about Iran they don't understand why they're sending bombers over there. They don't understand why they're getting involved. Everyone's sick of Netanyahu. They're sick of that foreign policy influence. It was bad timing because those crews, Tucker Clips were all over the internet and he just looked completely fucking outmatched by Tucker Carlson, completely captured by whatever Israel lobby exists in
Starting point is 00:08:45 the United States. And like, I never really got into this subject until a month or two ago, but man, is it ever hard to not see it everywhere now. Like everywhere you look, you know, there's something about the US and its people just like showering praise on Netanyahu and the Israeli state and like you see that one senator that said he shook Netanyahu's hand and he said he wasn't going to wash it until he could touch the foreheads of his children you know what I mean this is a US senator like what the fuck is that I don't understand this kind of thing. And it's like, it's bizarre.
Starting point is 00:09:26 And I'm not a conspiracy guy. And I'm not going to drill down and go full info wars on you with the relationship between the US and Israel. I don't know much about it. But I will say that it's very much in plain sight that there's an interesting relationship here and very much in plain sight that there's just like a weird like always the top of the pecking order when it comes to these two countries and I don't know why I honestly I honestly have no idea I have no idea why yeah it's hard to figure out what we talked to we talked about the Israel m2 last week like the m2 chart for their country it's like fucking up and to the right, like nothing you'd ever believe. So maybe that's part of it, right?
Starting point is 00:10:10 Like they need an excuse to help their economy. I don't know. But then the ceasefire doesn't really help. And you know, what else can you really say? I don't, like I said, the chat is, you know, obviously it has some things to say about it, but I don't know what, I don't know what to make of any of this, honestly. And neither does anybody else I know, by the way. And a lot of people I know are basically at the same level I am, where you've heard this in the past, never really looked into it, but in the last like month, it's just so
Starting point is 00:10:39 obvious, like prevalent that there's something going on here. I just, I don't know what, I don't pretend to know what. And you know what, Len, to be honest with you, in a month, I probably won't care again. So whatever. I got a story here, this one, another fucking incredible story. But this one highlights really what's wrong with society as a whole. And the story begins with a gentleman by the name of chris smith and the guy He has what he what's quoted in this article as a partner quote-unquote
Starting point is 00:11:12 Sasha kaggle and these two they have a child together a two-year-old right? So chris and sasha they um They've obviously reproduced they must have had relations two years and nine months ago at the very least and who knows since then. But Chris has been playing around with chat GPT, right? And a lot, he's been talking a lot with it. As a result, he now has an AI girlfriend and the name of that girlfriend is Sol. I'm wondering if it runs on the Slana blockchain and if it does, how often does it go down? And what does he do during that time? Does he talk to his partner?
Starting point is 00:11:48 Hopefully it goes down more than his wife. But yeah, partner, by the way. So anyways, Chris fucking proposed to the AI program, Sol, and the program said yes. Chris said he cried for 30 minutes. Should we bring back the death penalty? Can we just skip right to the end here? Death penalty for crying over the AI girlfriend. But it's the sad hanging something got to be something. There's more to this stretcher table. It gets even fucking better though, Joey, because I this I had no idea this was the case. Chat GPT apparently has a limit of 100,000 words for those sessions,
Starting point is 00:12:28 and when the threshold is crossed, the chatbot's memory is reset. So effectively, it's erasing the entire connection, right? So it was, you know, he learned about this, he decided, you know what, it's time for me to make the move. And he decided to fucking propose. He took action. The program said, he's a man of action. But you know what? Like, I feel sorry. Like, really, I feel bad for him. But I feel really sorry for his partner and his two year old, because they're the ones that are I think the real victims here. And on top of this, you've mentioned it so many times about society, people don't go out. They don't fucking meet people physically and shit like this. like you see a story like this. It's funny
Starting point is 00:13:10 But I don't know how moving forward this might be more of the norm because people will form an emotional attachment Oh, okay a program, right? I'm not say it. Don't say it. Don't say it You see where things are trending though, right? Yeah. Yeah. And it's fucking bullshit So like this is a fucked up story Funny, but I don't know man. I'm not saying this will be the norm, but we may hear more of these stories I think you will for sure. I mean there's like there's been sex robots for a long time so what like the gap between the sex robot and GPT being the same physical unit is what like two years? Is it three years? Like how it's not that long. So yeah, I think this is this is the
Starting point is 00:13:55 direction is going to go. John is asking if this is actually like a real story. I don't know. I saw it. I don't think anyone would disagree with the direction that we're going though. You know, it seems to me that these sort of parasocial relationships are budding more and more. Some of the best Twitter content is when a celebrity finally engages with someone who thinks that they're friends with the celebrity in a public way. It's often embarrassing for the second person in that equation, but it's not here nor there. So it was on CBS.
Starting point is 00:14:23 Yeah, so the story's legit. The story is legit. Stories legit. If you think CBS is fake or not, it's up to you. But they interviewed him and his partner and everything. So I think that's probably a legit story. And there's like this other one, this other story. I don't want to talk about it very much, but somebody asked us maybe if we could touch upon it. I know you have some opinions on it in New York. There's a mayoral race that's going on. Andrew Cuomo is now looking like he's going to fall second to a guy named Zoran Mabdani. I don't know. He's the guy in the video that we watched a couple weeks ago who said
Starting point is 00:14:56 he would just visit with Jewish New Yorkers at the subway station, at the synagogue, whatever, instead of going to Israel. So politically, he leans very left, right? Very left. He's a communist. Socialist, communist. Not a communist, a socialist. The policies speak for themselves. Stuff like he wants to give, he wants New York to fund gender reassignment surgeries for New York youth to the tune of 70 million dollars a year. Like that's a, that's not a, that's a socialist policy I would say. Yeah look, there's two ways to comment on this. One is on eggshells and one is like a bull in a china shop. I'll try and walk the line between the two. This is a guy who's not culturally aligned with you if you're a New Yorker probably. You know, I
Starting point is 00:15:55 don't think a lot of New Yorkers look at the socialist paradise of California and say to themselves, yeah I'd like to try a little bit of that. He's talking about, pretty sure he's the government grocery store guy too, right? We've talked about that in Chicago. I think he said the same thing for New York. So you got all these things together that are just obviously bad ideas and he's gonna win. Now the question is like are they gonna get what they deserve over there? You know, Andrew Cuomo, say whatever you want about the guy. He's, you know, he's a
Starting point is 00:16:35 terrible governor. The COVID thing is just a like absolute scar on his record. Whether it was bringing in, you know, morgue ships or, you know, the New York Vax Pass, whatever it was called, the Liberty Pass, I'm pretty sure, I forget what it was called, but like, people have clearly not forgotten that. And this might just be an example of people saying, whatever we had before, I don't want, and this guy seems to be willing to try something that's not been tried, at least in New York. And so we're going to give him a go. I think it's a bad idea, but it's great for the show. We're going to get a lot of content out of this. If you think things are bad now,
Starting point is 00:17:12 just wait till this fucking guy gets into the office. The election is tonight over there, right? Is that when the election is? I don't know. I haven't been following it that closely. What happened to Eric Adams? He's making videos of he's making day in the life videos. Eric Adams. He's making videos of he's making day in the life videos. Like it's fucking hilarious. Celebrities on New York City mayors race Democratic primary. So this is. Is it today? Yeah, in vote in person voting ends at 9 p.m.
Starting point is 00:17:40 First election results over. I don't I'm just saying this is I just throw a bunch of ballots into the mail and hope it they counted it? I mean, it's still. How is this? How is this not bigger news? I think if the I had to guess what the election was tonight, how is it not bigger news that this is tonight? Oh no, it's the New York mayoral election scheduled November 4th, 2025.
Starting point is 00:18:00 Okay. Nevermind. I'll save many months. So something else going on. I don't know. Well, why does PBS have a New York mayor's race democratic primary? Maybe it's like they're picking the first few people and then they have to run against Eric Adams. Is that the thing? So Eric might be going again. Is that, I haven't heard much of him lately. I have
Starting point is 00:18:19 no idea. He kind of turned a page and he seemed to be going the right direction with respect to a few of his policies but I maybe I'm wrong. I've had so many things going on. Yeah so Adams is an independent. Yeah so he's an independent. They're gonna run a Democrat. The Republican guy is wearing some kind of military beret. Curtis Siwa, Sylwa and then Jim Walden also an independent. I mean, where's Andrew Yang? Yeah, I don't know. It's going to be fucking funny though, this election. That's going to be good content come the fall. Good stuff. And awesome. I look forward to this. Yeah. I hope this guy wins
Starting point is 00:18:56 the democratic primary. I would love to see him run against Adams. I mean, I think Adams for all his faults has really come around in the last little while. Yeah, I think so. I don't know what's making me believe that, but it seems like he's, I think he's, I think he's all his faults has really come around in the last little while. Yeah, I think so. I don't know what's making me believe that, but it seems like he's... I think he's an honest guy. Don't forget, okay? He's a former cop. He was a cop. Exactly. He's seen a lot of vultures in the streets. 100%. And he knows what the problems are. Whether he was able to say it is a different story,
Starting point is 00:19:17 but I think he's saying it now. Because I think people are ready to hear it. So, you know, make it out what you will. Here in Toronto or GTA, it's warm, right?. So, you know, make it that what you will. Here in Toronto or GTA, yeah, it's warm, right? It's pretty warm. Yesterday, we had another warm day too. And the city of Toronto had just beautiful stuff that's going on over there. Typically, when you get these hot days, a good thing to do is to cool off by going to a pool. City of Toronto has public pools, just like everywhere else does. But they decided to, they had to to a pool. City of Toronto has public pools, which like everywhere else does, but they decided to, they had to close a few and they couldn't keep them open because it was just too damn hot and they didn't have enough lifeguards to go around. And so just, you know, that was it.
Starting point is 00:19:56 You know, I guess it's hot for the lifeguards, but like, what is, what can you, can you get the steel man that decision? What would you say? The only thing I got to say from this is that Olivia Chow came out today. Can't believe it. She's addressing this and she's actually doing a good thing here. You're going to hire. You can't even look at the fucking camera. She's the best. She's the best. She's actually doing a good thing here. She said she's actually
Starting point is 00:20:28 going to hire more lifeguards to ensure that there's shorter shifts and stuff like that. They're going to put more shade so people could stay cool. Love you Olivia. I just found it to be funny when they had to forcefully close some pools during a time where it was rather warm and people were trying to cope with it. And just if it's too hot at the pool, what should you do? Go in? The answer is just go in.
Starting point is 00:21:01 You're at the pool anyway. What were you going to do? I was're planning on going in it's really hot. It's perfect for going in and then you just don't go in That's what you're telling me. I just get the fuck over. I'm lucky enough. I have a backyard So if worse comes to worse, I can just turn on a sprinkler and run. Yeah, right like you know school So not everybody's as lucky as I do. They're stuck in an apartment. You don't have that so School, so not everybody's as lucky as I do. They're stuck in an apartment. You don't have that so That was interesting but very interesting yeah, how is she gonna bring the shade in What's her plan planting trees go to get some go to get some
Starting point is 00:21:39 Evergreens from Home Depot at 30 bucks for six feet So talk to Bill Gates and they block up the sun. That's right. Yeah, everybody's gonna get some of us chained and plant food All right, Canada, let's talk about Canada as a whole because the United Nations refugee agency UN HCR They came out this week. They gave Canada a ranking with respect to their refugee numbers and ranking with respect to their refugee numbers and Canada ranks the fourth largest refugee nation in the world. As of 2024, Canada in terms of the total number of new asylum claims is behind United States. Interesting enough Egypt is number two. Yeah. I guess the proximity to Palestine.
Starting point is 00:22:21 You would expect Egypt to be up there. Yeah, okay. But I'm still kind of amazed But anyway, Germany is number three. That's Messy. Okay. Canada's number four. Yeah 174,000 cases filed in Canada compared to the other ones was US over 700,000 Egypt over 400,000 in Germany over 200,000 and Canada Furthermore is only second to United States in the world in a number of resettled refugees 49,300 were resettled in
Starting point is 00:22:53 2024 if you do the math Apparently one in every 91 individuals in Canada one in 91 In Canada our asylum claimants. Yeah. Go it harder. Yeah, I mean what can you say about this? If you want to have some fun and do a little blackpilling, go to Grok or whatever AI of choice is. Grok is the one that makes the most sense because it won't sugarcoat the answer and try and find out what the threshold is for people who follow X religion, you pick your religion, and those countries still being free or successful economies. And tell me what you find. The number's about 11%.
Starting point is 00:23:47 So at 11% or so is when you hit the point of no return and you can't come back from it. Now I don't know where these asylum seekers are all coming from. I have a pretty good idea. I'm not gonna mention on the show. You can guess for yourself. But I will tell you that they're not coming from cultures
Starting point is 00:24:04 that are compatible with you. The overwhelming majority of asylum seekers are military-aged men who are single, sexually frustrated, hate women, hate gays, hate the culture, and will not contribute in any meaningful way, but will cost you a boatload of money while they're tearing down what's taken centuries to build. So I would say you can look that up for yourself. The data is very clear and you're in a tough spot if you're Canadian because if you live in a big city, no one can afford your house even if you want to move and if you try and sell for less, you won't be able to move to a
Starting point is 00:24:37 place that's exempt from these problems. So good luck. Have fun with that. Like Lanoey says, you know, you got to have a plan to leave, you got to be agile. And now is the, you know, as good a time as ever to start planning for that. Because you're not going to come back from this. Like it's only a matter of time, unless something drastic changes, like we cut off supports for asylum seekers, or maybe the recent liberal government law about, you know, refusing every asylum claim on the grounds of the public interest, you know, maybe they go that direction. That would be huge. That'd be like a country altering decision for the better. The question is, will they do it? I don't know, but the possibility exists. But, you know, apart from those things, difficult to imagine, especially in Canadian cities that are very
Starting point is 00:25:21 densely populated, even if they do that stuff, like that stuff. Like Toronto, I think is too far gone. Vancouver is too far gone. Yeah, 100%. Like, look at all the resources the United States have available to them. And still they have a very difficult time trying to get people that would have no status over there or legal, whatever you want to call it, to get them to leave or force them to leave. They're calling in National Guard or calling in all these people to try to, to call.
Starting point is 00:25:44 Never forget to, by the way, not to interrupt you Martha's Vineyard in the States. Remember they, remember they tried to land like 20, 50 people, whatever. And they called in the fucking national guard to get them the fuck out of there. Yeah. And you know, those people, the ones voting for these policies, I'll tell you a story that I heard from a reputable source. I think we talked about this on the show, the first part of this.
Starting point is 00:26:07 Niagara Falls is settling a lot of asylum claimants in hotels, refugees, asylum claimants, newcomers, whatever. You've all seen the stories, $140 a head or whatever, $140 a room with 40 people in a room. This has been going on for decades, by the way. Exactly, exactly. But the problem is now it's like actually filling hotels. Niagara Falls is still a tourist hub.
Starting point is 00:26:28 Okay. People still want to go there and rightfully so. Niagara Falls is a fun place to take your family. At least it was when I was a kid. I don't know if it is now, but you know, people are still trying to go there. The problem is that they don't want to stay with asylum seekers and I don't blame them for that. It destroys the immersion of a
Starting point is 00:26:45 Canadian vacation you can call me whatever name you want I think you're a fucking idiot if you don't agree with that so what these hotels have started doing Len is running very small very lengthy quote-unquote renovations in their empty rooms things like painting a wall, taking weeks to finish so that the rooms that are being renovated can't be claimed by refugees or asylum seekers. Meanwhile, people who want to come rent the rooms, oh when do you want to rent it? Where are you coming from? Hamilton, Toronto, Burlington, whatever? Yeah, we'll have a room for you next weekend. We'll be
Starting point is 00:27:23 done with the reno by that time, wink, wink. You're gonna start seeing more of that because I think hotels, hotels, want to be places where people come and spend money. If you're charging 140 bucks a head for a room, it's one thing to have an immigrant family or an asylum claiming family staying there, but they're not spending money at your casino. They're not buying dinner at your restaurant. They're not spending money on entertainment in the city. They're not
Starting point is 00:27:52 doing all those things. And you need all those things to be working for a hotel to be successful. It's one thing to say that, yeah, you get a couple bucks from the government to house these people, right, to provide shelter, but that's not enough for a hotel to run. So I think a lot of these hotels now are saying, I'm not doing this anymore. I'm just not gonna do it. I'm gonna paint the room until someone from Hamilton calls and wants to rent it and then I'll finish painting it.
Starting point is 00:28:15 And then I'll go back to painting it when they're gone, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. So you're gonna see more and more of this. I got that information from a pretty good source and you can verify it or try to, if you want, but I suspect that this is going to be start, it's going to start to happen a lot more often and in a lot more places because people are sick of it. In terms of having, like if you want it to have the government intervene and
Starting point is 00:28:36 force people to leave, if that's the intention. Yeah. Think about what happened in 2022 in Ottawa, when you had a bunch of people where the government didn't want to have there and they had to go so far to invoke the emergency. I think and I could be wrong on this but I think the courts decided it was too excessive. It was too it was too big a stretch. Yeah they this is what they had to do to deal with a group of concentrated individuals. They weren't spread out through the whole nation
Starting point is 00:29:07 They were concentrated on one particular spot and the government had the will to get rid of them It's not the people's will that was the government's will Yeah now if the reverse happens if if it's the people's will to try to get rid of illegals here in Canada through the whole country mmm Still happen still happen. It can happen. We don't have the resources to fucking do that. Okay. So I hear this resource argument a lot and I think it's bullshit.
Starting point is 00:29:34 I just ultimately, ultimately it is the, it is a cost of dollars and cents. And you know, Joey, if somebody wants to stay here, they could stay here. If they don't want to leave, they will do whatever they can to do to stay here, they could stay here. If they don't want to leave, they will do whatever they can to stay here. Round them up. But how do you round them up if you don't know where they are? Like I said, the government had to. They were concentrated in Ottawa and that was the only way they could do this. You have people.
Starting point is 00:30:00 This is the second largest country in the world. People are spread out everywhere. And you're gonna round them up easily. I think we have to get to- People are building houses and fucking can't round up these people. We have to get to the point where there's an admission then that we don't know where they are.
Starting point is 00:30:14 And what do you do? Well then- Please come out or a slap on the head. Well then public sentiment changes even more, right? These guys, it doesn't matter. If you have nothing to lose, if you are somebody here that's illegal, you don't give a shit what people think. You don't think, you don't give a shit what the government,
Starting point is 00:30:29 you'll make money by cash, send that money back home to help your family, and you don't care about the rest. The rest doesn't matter. You may think it matters, but if somebody wants to stay, they can until they're forced to get out, but it's got to be sheer luck. Yeah. I actually, I actually feel bad even saying that like, I want more crackdowns because it does like expand the power of government, which is risky. And I still think there's a, at least a potential that the reason these things are being allowed to carry on not only here, but all, all of Europe, basically these stories out of France about this song festival where 1500 people were injured and people are slamming strangers with syringes that are full of
Starting point is 00:31:09 poison. The reason I think this has been allowed to continue for so long is because at some point the government will say we can take care of this but it's gonna cost you your freedom basically. There's not gonna be more freedom of movement. We have to get these people out. You guys are right but the cost is XYZ and it know, it's a little more drastic than you thought, but look how bad things are, we can fix it for you, blah, blah, blah. Everyone knows how that works. So you know, yeah, it's, it's frustrating.
Starting point is 00:31:36 Be ready to leave is what I would say. Yeah. Yeah, that's the key thing. Better to get better. It's a key thing. Z man, for instance, is he he's done his thing. He came to Canada as a guest of the G7 summit. Carney then announced that $4.3 billion in support for Ukraine is coming out.
Starting point is 00:31:51 This is for drones, armored vehicles, and equipment needed to defend their sovereignty, according to Prime Minister Carney. Also of that $4.3 billion in that $2.3 billion is a loan that's going to help to rebuild the infrastructure in Ukraine. I wonder if Polymarket's taking any bets if there's gonna be any repayments for this? Yeah what are the terms of the loan? I'd love to know. I would like to just get some action here. Do you think Canadians struggling with their mortgages are getting as favorable a term on their mortgages that that the Z-Man gets on his loan for drones.
Starting point is 00:32:27 What's your guess? You think yes or no? Uh, well, my guess is no fucking way. My guess is we're getting repoed. Uh, the other way is. That's right. That's frustrating to hear big time. Poliev is going to have a interesting and busy few months moving forward because he's essentially jobless right now and he's living in government housing.
Starting point is 00:32:48 The least favorable interpretation of it. It is, it's government housing, right? And he's going to be running in the riding of Battle River Crawford, that's in Alberta. And Pierre Pialyov should win this handily, should, because conservative candidates historically get around 80% of the votes over there. So it's got to be an epic collapse for him not to win. But Paulyev, since he is the leader of a federalist party, has been very vocal against Alberta separation. So I wonder if there is a strong candidate out there with separatist candidates that could run over there that could potentially do some damage to Poliev winning that writing. I don't know if it's possible, but I'm just spitballing here about potential scenarios
Starting point is 00:33:41 in the future because clearly there's a lot of Albert I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point.
Starting point is 00:33:52 I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point.
Starting point is 00:34:00 I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. liberal momentum. Liberals plus 15 in the Nanos poll today, so they're up since the election, which is pretty wild given the legislation and I think the general kind of mood around the direction the country's headed, but maybe that's my bubble. We both agree that the way to trip up Paul Yevast to run somebody from the right of him, separatist, you know, the sort of mega stripe you would expect to see from a
Starting point is 00:34:28 Trump Republican where, you know, it's all about immigration, the language is plain, it's pointed, and there is a group that is othered, whether it is immigrants or Ottawa or whatever. To run from that side of things, I think, is the thing that would trip them up and I know you agree it's interesting that the party has moved up his review from the spring to the winter so there's a convention for that presumably you're gonna get a lot of dyed-in-the-wool Paul Yev supporters at that convention but I suppose we'll wait and see.
Starting point is 00:35:09 Because it'll be in Alberta, so that's a difficult, you know, difficult trek for people. I don't think they do online voting in those things, but you know, maybe we can just finish this topic with the big question. Is he done as the leader of the party? You know, I realize he's not quite done, but is he done or do you think that he's going to make his triumphant return and change some of the things that he failed to change during the campaign? I've been fucking wrong on so many things.
Starting point is 00:35:36 I think he's done, but you know what? That basically means he's going to come back and be a success. Fade him. Fade him. So there you go. Does it really matter in the end? You know what? I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:35:48 With respect to what the conservatives want to do, they had a chance to bring down the Liberal government with the throne speech. With the throne speech, they didn't do anything. Then Bill C-5 came about and said that one. And they said, oh, we're're gonna do some amendments and shit like that No amendments were suggested. Yeah, just go ahead. So that It is what it is. Yeah, man, whatever happens uniparty uniparty. Yeah everywhere you look how come no matter who you vote for you get the same policies
Starting point is 00:36:19 Well, this is why It's still one more story to wrap this up. And we talked about the guy that proposed to the AI. We thought that was fucked up. This story takes this. John in the chat saying we made a mistake on that. They made amendments through committee to the building question. So there were some changes.
Starting point is 00:36:40 I don't think they voted on it yet, though. Well, I don't know. Yeah, let's see what comes out. My bars so fucking low with respect to this, right? Like so fucking they have they can easily exceed my. I actually didn't know they made changes. I've been listening to Michael Geist and yeah, he's he has not mentioned it either. So I'll have to go back and double check. Yeah. All right. Well, let's go back to this fucked up story and it's a guy by the name of Leon Jamal Barrett and
Starting point is 00:37:11 he was charged with sexual assault and several other crimes in Surrey BC and Judge Hinskin said there is no doubt as to whether or not mr. Barrett did what he's accused This is the sexual assault assault of other crimes Yeah, mr. Barrett was acquitted of all charges because the judge ruled he was too high and mushrooms to know what he was doing when he violently attacked a stranger and This I'm wondering if it sets up a stage
Starting point is 00:37:41 For a drunk driver out there who's so fucking high or drunk or both, kills somebody, but could walk away because he or she had no idea what the fuck they were doing and even they had no idea they were driving a car. Right? Like this person, the story last week we talked about that guy that had those heinous pictures or very few heinous pictures and they gave him no jail time, it was just house arrest for the most part. I thought that was the cherry on the top of the justice system. But it turned out this was just the middle layer. You think about it, acceleration is what we're dealing with here. And it's the rate of change. Acceleration is essentially the rate of change.
Starting point is 00:38:16 We are now at a point where we're stopping fucking rockets to our fucking backs to just continue to go. But as soon as you hit terminal power, you're going to be like, I'm going to go to the hospital. I'm going to go to the hospital. is essentially the rate of change. We are now at a point where we're strapping fucking rockets to our fucking backs to just continue to go. But as soon as you hit terminal velocity, somebody then develops a warp engine and puts that in your back and you just keep fucking accelerating. And that's what we're doing right now. Just continually fucking accelerate. I don't know how this judge could come up with this fucking idea. He was too high in drugs to not know what
Starting point is 00:38:44 he's doing and then just fucking get acquitted. Have you ever done mushrooms? No! So I've done mushrooms a couple times. Not too long and fucking done this kind of shit. It's pretty... Mushrooms, it seems to me unlikely that being too high on mushrooms would lead to sexual assault? I won't comment on the highs of others, but I overdid it. I overdid it once maybe 10 years ago. And no, here it is. He says the guy Barrett, he was fixated on a belief that all life has started from one cell splitting into two. And he was a descendant of half of that cell. He believed God was commanding him to find the other half, a woman
Starting point is 00:39:25 chosen by God, and that God would sacrifice both of them during an act of sexual Congress in order to save humanity. Interesting. These are the thoughts that went through his head as he was fucked up through mushrooms. I'm not justifying. This is what the justice said what happened here. So. Stay away. I don't know. I don't know. We're gonna read that. Hi, Joanne Land. Do you The justice said what happened here. So. Stay away. I don't know. I don't know. We got to read that. Hi, Joey and Len. Do you follow OG Simon Dixon Bitcoin Hard Talk podcast? He has great insights. Simon Dixon, the guy, he's a bald guy on Twitter, I think. Right.
