Starting point is 00:00:00 Okay, we're good then. Okay. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm a very lucky man. I am in a relationship with a caring and beautiful man who has helped make this whole company possible. Allison handles all of the heavy lifting to make everything here function cleanly, smoothly, and make it work. And this has been one of the reasons why we take security very seriously. And it is why we have been working as hard as we can to make sure everything operates. It is that we were getting married and I'm having a child. This is thank you very much. And this has been for some time now, I've just not said anything. Additionally, working two full shifts and running a company makes it impossible to have done this years earlier. And which is the constant conversation that we've had is, when do we stop this so that we can actually have a family and live a normal life, I suppose? Well, the answer is we can't.
Starting point is 00:01:07 We can't do everything that this company is doing. I can't work 16 hours a day and take care of my wife and child. The additional consideration is as the show gets larger and larger, hence some content reductions and things like that, security implications become a bit more severe, such as can we raise a family when we get swatted 15 times in one year and have crazy people in dresses showing up on our property beating up
Starting point is 00:01:28 our employees? It's very, very difficult. With that being said, we come to a crisis point when we can't sustain all of these things at the same time. I don't think any sane human being would be able to do it. The amount of energy is just non-existent within a human being. With that being said, we have talked about it, especially following the conversations we had last night. And we decided we'll keep doing this. We will be reducing and restructuring the company so that it can be more manageable for our family plans. We can start prioritizing our family and stop prioritizing a company and the work that both of us do. Allison also works 16 hours a day to make sure this company functions because administrative work has to be done. And we're going to likely pursue outside administrative
Starting point is 00:02:14 assistance in making all this possible so that we can finally take care of ourselves and live the dream life that we've wanted to live for a long time. So I apologize for yesterday's show being as drawing as it was, but we didn't know if we wanted to announce this because the threats upon my life and what that may mean for my family. But for all of you who are loyal viewers and who really do believe in the work that we do and the message that we received from all our members, we thought maybe we'll just figure out this restructuring, make everything run more smoothly, and then take the security implications with what that means as seriously as we can,
Starting point is 00:02:51 and try and keep doing it all. It's going to be very difficult. But I think if we pursue outside administrative assistance, strategic investment, or some kind of, you know, you know, external assistance, I think it will be manageable. And so that's our intention right now. And this is why we I was contemplating saying, you know, that yesterday may be the end of it. We had been dealing with a lot of issues that are very difficult to deal with. We've put off our dreams for a long time because we wanted to make this all work. And because every time, you every time we miss an episode, there are so many people who rely on this show, who believe in it, who believe in me, that we feel an obligation and we feel guilt if we don't pursue that.
Starting point is 00:03:33 But when all the stress has come to a head, we finally make the decision, maybe we should just take care of ourselves and stop pushing as hard as we can to the point where our heads are going to explode and our eyes pop out of our heads. And that's what happens yesterday when we're at a point where I don't want to put my family at risk. And there's limited things I'm willing to say because of the psychopaths who threaten us every single day and the very serious threats that we do receive almost every single day. But as I mentioned, we've talked about it. We worked through as much as we can. And I think largely due to the response from our loyal fans, members, viewers, and some friends and family,
Starting point is 00:04:13 we will make it work to the best of our abilities. So with that being said, it's kind of the weirdest way to announce that I'm pursuing my family life to the best of my abilities. And I will stress too, one of the most frustrating things about comments, for instance, I know not to read the comments. I know that half of them
Starting point is 00:04:30 are just stupid and half of them are great. But it really does sting when for the past several years, there are people saying, ha ha, Tim, you don't have any children. Why aren't you married? And the reality is because I'm sacrificing to try and make this work and produce something I think is valuable to people. And it comes to a point where I said, why should I when I should just do what any good man would do and have my family? Well, we'll try to do it all. So that is the big announcement. And we will do what we can to make this show continue functioning and working. It may mean that we won't have guests on Friday, but Fridays will be crew shows where members, you know, TimCast crew members and other people will join the show as our guest. Maybe some people will join as guests who are locals and live nearby.
Starting point is 00:05:13 But there will be some reduction, but the show will continue. With that being said, the reason I decided to make the announcement knowing that there will be security ramifications is because I feel like I owe it to all of you who watch the show, the millions who have supported all of the content that I've produced and allowed me to live this life. It's not fair just to abruptly shut it down, disappear, and then go and live my own life. I think there's a way we can try and make it work. Additionally, we've been having conversations with many other companies about ad sales and ways we can pick up and make this work better. So I'm confident that we can reduce stress, maintain the show, and eventually get to a point where either through strategic investment, which would basically mean we have to bring in someone who can run the company,
Starting point is 00:05:56 and it would be an exchange for a small bit of equity or something like that. We can make this work indefinitely. We'll see. Outside of that news, Joe Rogan is having Donald Trump on the show. So we're really excited for all of that. Of course, Donald Trump is dominating in the polls and the prediction markets. Republicans have the morality nearly 50 percent to sweep the entire election on the market and early voting. Ballot requests are already showing a double digits. In some instances, up to 30 point lead for Republicans right now, suggesting Donald Trump is going to win. Some have said that the Joe Rogan appearance will seal the deal. And Kamala Harris took a day off.

It uh i'm happy to be here this i appreciate it a good time to be alive as a human it's a great time to be here with you man phil hello everybody my name is phil labonte i'm the lead singer of the heavy metal band all that remains i'm an anti-communist and a counter-revolutionary congratulations tim thank you very much i am very very happy to hear that and uh let's get started. Here we go from the New Republic. Trump cancels all his events in favor of one of the worst people ever. This is my favorite headline for reading this story. Donald Trump will be sitting down with Joe Rogan. It's confirmed. We have this. Oh, I guess we don't have the tweet. Where did I retweeted it? I'll find it
Starting point is 00:08:20 somewhere. It's a picture of. There we go we got it from joe rogan podcast on x and i'm like this is this is joe rogan hq i believe it's his show and he's got this image trump on joe rogan friday october 25th and there is a a joe rogan with an ish eating grin excited to interview uh donald trump so the actual news here of course trump will conduct an interview with joe rogan for his podcast the question, does this actually seal the deal? Or is there a reality where Joe gets some hard hitting questions at Trump and then it spikes Trump's polls and then Kamala wins? I don't believe that's possible. I don't imagine that that's going to be a thing. I think that most of the people that are actually viewers of Joe Rogan, I don't think that he has
Starting point is 00:09:01 very many Kamala voters that actually watch his show. I can't imagine that there's a lot of people that are like, I'm with her. Does Joe want his viewers to think that he's neutral? Does he want them to assume he's not voting for either party? I think he does. I mean, I don't know for sure, but I imagine he does because he doesn't come out and say it specifically. also does he is fairly honest in his criticism like he has no problem like saying critical things about donald trump he's he's clowned on him before um maybe it's just for comic effect because you know there's funny stuff that donald trump does that deserves to be poked fun at but i do think that he he is likely to be
Starting point is 00:09:41 a uh a donald trump voter and even if he isn't, I'm confident that his viewers are largely Donald Trump voters, even if they aren't a significant majority. I can't imagine that. RFK guys turned Trump guys, maybe more so? Yeah, I think so. Yeah, he sort of strikes me. Joe is the kind of guy that instead of going on his show and being like, you all should vote for Trump.
Starting point is 00:10:05 I'm going to vote for Trump, vote for Trump, vote for Mike. He'd rather bring Trump on and let Trump speak for himself and let his viewers decide for themselves. And that's his neutral impartiality, part of his brain. And I think that's his preference, which is probably why he's going for it. I don't get it because I like telling people what to think. Yeah, but that's not Joe's style. That's not his style, right? He's not combative. He's not trying to be a journalist. He's trying to be like,
Starting point is 00:10:26 you're talking like in a cigar room with your buddy and this is how, right? I think Joe is voting Trump. 100% he's voting for Trump. But I agree with Ian that I think his approach for a while,
Starting point is 00:10:37 I thought he was being just, you know, spineless saying like, I'm like, why don't you just come out? Say you're voting for Trump. Dude, if word got out that he wasn't voting for Trump, I just imagine Dana White on the phone. Joe, what are you doing? Joe, why don't you just come out? Say you're voting for Trump. Dude, if word got out that he wasn't voting for Trump,
Starting point is 00:10:45 I just imagine Dana White on the phone. Joe, what are you doing? Joe, come on, you know? Because you know, I mean, Dana White and Trump are friends and stuff. But I think Joe's going about it right. Joe didn't want to have Trump on before. He's going to have him on now.
Starting point is 00:10:58 I think it's the right thing to do. He's doing it at the right moment. It is a couple of weeks. This is going to be a week and a half out from the election. Joe Rogan is letting Donald Trump go on his platform and make his peace. And we know Donald Trump can hang
Starting point is 00:11:12 in long form podcasts. Kamala Harris, not so much. She doesn't really have a lot to offer. She's done them, right? She went to Breakfast Club and she's done interviews, but I don't think she's going to get a pass from Joe if she went on his show.
Starting point is 00:11:24 So I don't see her doing it. Yeah, I can't imagine her being because I mean, even though Joe wouldn't actually be combative, he would ask her questions that would make her uncomfortable. And if you I mean, if you look at just a little bit of of pushback that she got when she was with Brett Baier, I imagine she would fall apart. And in a two to two to three hour conversation, I mean, I just, I can't imagine her being able to hold up under that kind of scrutiny because she's just an empty suit. I hope she does it, but I think you're right. Like she kind of resorts to intimidation in her instead of persuasion, she'll get like that. Well, what do you want the other guy to win? And joke is indomitable. Essentially in a conversation in his studio you cannot intimidate that man and
Starting point is 00:12:06 he would be fully placid and in control of the conversation and if she tried that babyish maneuver it would be outed immediately and to your point if he does end up being like in kind of control of the conversation that automatically puts her in a bad light to be president you know i don't know that that that joe's going to be trying to control the conversation with Donald Trump, but Donald Trump is going to be Donald Trump and he's going to, you know, take whatever Joe says and he's going to go wherever the heck he feels like. And that's something that Trump does.
Starting point is 00:12:35 And so that at least, even if it doesn't seem like Trump is controlling the conversation, it's going to seem like Trump has his own agenda. Whereas Kamala Harris, if he asks her something that makes her uncomfortable, she's going to be defensive and that's going to look unpresidential. She doesn't come across well even when she's in control of the conversation. So I don't know that that matters. I love this whole Trump is exhausted narrative while he's like at a Steelers game or whatever.
Starting point is 00:12:59 And Kamala, she took a day off. She's allowed to take a day off. She's not taking days off. She's hiding. Sure, sure. That's about taking days off. She's hiding. Sure. Sure. It is. She's hiding. By all means. But don't criticize Donald Trump as exhausted if you're not around. Like if you vanish for a day, for whatever reason, that may be. But I think here's my thoughts. I think Joe Rogan will be voting for Donald Trump. That's just my opinion.
Starting point is 00:13:22 The reason why I think that is Joe is an incredibly smart guy. He says in his show often that he's not a smart guy and he does that because he's modest and he doesn't want to be an arrogant guy. He doesn't want to be the smartest guy in the room. And that's why people really like him. But you know, when Joe talks about health issues and lockdowns, when he says RFK Jr. makes the most sense. Look, RFK Jr. is on Team Trump right now. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:41 So Joe might, I mean, maybe he's like, I want to vote for anybody, but I really doubt it. But why then is he been has he been so neutral? If you and this is the reality, he comes out and says, go, Donald Trump, I'm voting for Trump. There's going to be a lot of middle of the road people who are apolitical, who are going to be like, oh, I don't know. I don't watch that. I don't you know, it could it could it could destroy the bridge between moderates and the right that would actually allow people to hear a non-establishment narrative but you know what don't we need social proof we need people like joe rogan showing this is
Starting point is 00:14:17 mainstream right it needs to be a part like it the left has done such a good job at making people so ashamed of in the privacy of their own voting booth. They still feel like they can't pull the lever for Donald Trump. That's what they've done. So I don't think I think this is like, you know, this is not the time to sit on the sidelines and not say what you're actually doing, especially for someone like Joe Rogan. Is he still with Spotify or? Yes, they have a new deal. So the Spotify deal ended and they did a new deal where Spotify sells the ads for him.
Starting point is 00:14:46 And I think the way it was reported that he gets a minimum guarantee. They post the show. He posts the show on every platform, but the ads are controlled by the Spotify ad network or whatever. He has overlords. He doesn't need any more money. The guy doesn't need anything. That's the thing, too. I'm not trying to dig at Joe or anything, but I talked about this quite a bit.
Starting point is 00:15:06 What do all these ultra-rich people do with their money? Joe buys DMT. Investments. Joe, I could imagine that he does, but I don't know. He's probably so far beyond that, dude. Beyond the veil? There's probably something called XV5 DMT Extreme. You've never heard of it? There's AMTT it's alpha-methyltryptamine
Starting point is 00:15:28 and that's like a Russian super-soldier drug it lasts for days it's like highly illegal and all that AMT but it does exist there was something that you mentioned I had slipped my mind anyways go ahead I'm sorry
Starting point is 00:15:42 I was going to make a point you want to talk more about alpha-methyltryptamine? No, no. There was something that Tim had said. It was in regards to... Oh, no. I don't know. I just think...
Starting point is 00:15:52 You're saying that Joe should step out of the silence. Maybe on this show, on Friday with Trump, he says something like, I don't know if you're the right guy, but I will be supporting you because RFK Jr. is a man I trust. Maybe that's something he does at the last minute. The reason why I think it makes sense throughout the past four years, he doesn't overtly say MAGA, MAGA, MAGA. It's like, come on, the media attacks Joe Rogan. Look, that's why I opened with that article that he's the worst guy ever. They clearly view him as right wing. But I got to tell you, I have friends who are woke liberal lefties, but they're not super political. They're more like default. They fly the pride progress flags
Starting point is 00:16:31 and stuff. I've known people, some of my friends I've known for years, and they don't they don't mind being friends with me. They don't know anything about it. They just know it's like, oh, I don't know. And they're posting on social media about how they're voting for Kamala. They watch Joe. And when I've been on Joe's show, they message being like, I watched the show. It was so awesome. I love it. Joe is opening the door for a lot of these people to hear narratives outside of the establishment media. And so by by being a more neutral personality and inviting to everybody, he keeps that possible. It may be one of the reasons Donald Trump gets a big boost this cycle. Now, that's us being real. I don't joe's ever going to say that and there are a bunch of other
Starting point is 00:17:09 libertarians who are like i'm not voting for trump but they're going to press trump the moment they go in that voting booth to to what you're bringing up about um joe the the the odds of him voting for kamala harris are long i think we all agree that. But if you think about the fact that like just this headline says he's one of the worst people in the world or whatever, right? For no reason other than he's politically, you know, he's coded as right. He's not even overtly right wing. He's just coded as right. And he comes across as, you know, a positive masculine guy.
Starting point is 00:17:44 And that is essentially default bad, according to the left. And then you throw in the fact that it's not like he doesn't see those kind of things, or he's unaware of it. I'm sure he knows that there are people out there that have the opinion of him. And he also knows that Kamala Harris has come out and said, or at least I imagine he knows, that Kamala Harris has come out and said that Elon Musk has abused his privilege of free speech and owning property. Two things. Right. It is not a privilege to speak your mind in the United States of America.
Starting point is 00:18:15 And it's not a privilege to own property. from the possible president aimed at a private citizen who is already under investigation by the DOJ, by multiple government agencies, and I'm referring to Elon Musk, you know that they would go after, if they were successful in silencing Musk and X, you know they would go after someone like Joe Rogan, because like Tim said, and like we, I think we all agree here, this platform does, it does become a gateway to, to thinking for yourself. Even if you don't think, even if you don't agree with Donald Trump and don't like Donald Trump, it becomes a gateway to thinking outside of what the, the, the zeitgeist is, what the, what the politically correct narrative is. They've attacked Joe Rogan on multiple times for no reason other than saying things that are politically incorrect, saying things that are out of step with the narrative that is presented by the government. So it actually is, you know, I wouldn't say that it's existential for him now, but it definitely is a situation where he might incur the ire of a
Starting point is 00:19:26 Harris administration. And if you believe Elon Musk, like I actually do agree with this, that if Harris wins, it is a significant possibility that we end up with one party rule in this country for an extended period of time. And if that is the case, then you know people like us here and people like Joe Rogan are going to eventually be in the crosshairs of the government to shut the shut down the dissenting voices. Well, how about this from The New York Post? Biden on Trump 14 days before the election, quote, we got to lock him up. Yeah, he actually said it. And I love this because then I guess he he they say there's a four second pause and then he says politically, politically. OK, politically, he you know, you know, what's happening is that when you get old like Joe, you you lose your filter. Right. You know, people often say like, oh, old people are so racist. They just say whatever they want there.
Starting point is 00:20:21 Well, they have no filter anymore. Not trying to be polite. Some 80 year old dude is sitting there and he's just like, they have no filter anymore. They're not trying to be polite. Some 80-year-old dude is sitting there, and he's just like, I don't care anymore. I'm 80. So Joe Biden, you know, he's just not all that. I think he got in trouble for the MAGA hat, and this is his, like, timeout where they told him he had to fix it. I think that's what this is. I think they got the clip here.
Starting point is 00:20:39 He is talking about doing away with the entire Department of Education. He's talking. Yes. He means it. It's not a joke. I hope so. This is a guy who also wants to replace every civil servant. Uh-huh.
Starting point is 00:20:54 Can only vote for the guy once. Yeah. He's a writer of the Supreme Court ruling on immunity. This guy can barely talk. What? Oh, but they all, they all clapped for it. They all clapped for it.
Starting point is 00:21:28 Can someone smarter than me explain the difference between that and when Trump said lock her up about Hillary? That's where it all came from. I don't think Trump said
Starting point is 00:21:37 lock her up. I think Trump said, Because you'd be in jail. Because you'd be in jail. Right. She had an email server with, I think it was,
Starting point is 00:21:45 what we know publicly was 35,000 public records that were destroyed by her staff under her direction. They smashed phones with hammers thinking that would
Starting point is 00:21:54 get rid of the data and this is plainly illegal. She had classified, it has been proved that she had classified material on that server which was in her bathroom. Classified material is not supposed to be taken outside of a...
Starting point is 00:22:09 I don't dispute any of that, but at the same time, they're going to say that Trump's a convicted felon. So we should... Well, it doesn't... I mean, if you're trying to talk rationally... And he needs to really reckon with that. Like, get serious. That he's a felon? You could go to prison if you don't win.
Starting point is 00:22:22 I think he has reckoned with it. I mean, I don't know. He talks about it at his rallies. He's like, they're trying to lock me up. They're definitely trying to put their political enemies in prison. Steve Bannon is going to get out on Tuesday. He's in jail now.
Starting point is 00:22:37 And the reason is because he's a political enemy of the state. Maybe it's just because he's so free-spirited that it doesn't seem like he takes it seriously, but maybe I've misjudged. Trump takes it seriously. I mean, his family talks about it. And plus, there have been people who have tried to kill him. Yes. So I think he's very concerned about what all this means. And the argument from many liberals is that Donald Trump is only running because he fears going to prison. So the view from the left is that Trump doesn't want to go. And look, you want to go to.
Starting point is 00:23:06 And look, you want to grab those and show Mary. I don't think you've seen these, Mary. They're awesome. I don't know what these are. Just take a look at them. Flip them over. Oh, so these are coins. And that's it or no prison.
Starting point is 00:23:18 Yeah, it's presidents or prison coins. Where did you get those? There's a commercial for it on Fox News, and I ordered them on the Internet. I feel like I'm like, I feel like I'm a 90s infomercial. It's Joe Biden. The blue one is Joe Biden being sworn in with Trump in prison on the back. And then the red one is Trump being sworn in with Joe Biden in prison on the back. If you dial 1-800. And yeah, they're like 30 bucks.
Starting point is 00:23:36 They're like silver plated or something. I don't know. It's like not even silver plated is the most jank way to sell anything. So here's the deal. Trump said because you'd be in jail. I'm not sure. The crowd would chant, lock her up. I don't think Trump ever said that.
Starting point is 00:23:50 But when Trump got elected, he says, no, no, no, we're not going to do that. And he pulled it back and he toned it down. And I think now he probably regrets it. Oh, yeah. Because now they've literally arrested him several times, arrested his lawyers. So the issue now is Trump was bloviating as he does and then didn't actually live up to it and everyone said okay fine whatever then they accused him of being a russian spy now and impeached him twice on insane bogus uh charges that ultimately he got
Starting point is 00:24:18 acquitted on i mean it's ridiculous and now they're actually trying to well for one in new york they changed the law so that he could be charged with uh with um sexual abuse yeah not charged with but uh sued under yeah and you know what's funny about that is he was the only person in all new york state to ever be actually brought in for a crime right like you could shove a woman in front of a subway she's the 17th person you've killed and you're out of rikers by the end of the day that's what's happening in 30 years later some woman has a story about donald. They change the law so that she consumes, she sues him and they say, aha, look, that proves it. And they, uh, the best one is the fraud case, civil fraud in New York, where they claimed that he defrauded the banks that he
Starting point is 00:24:53 was getting loans from because they, uh, because he misrepresented the size of one of his penthouses, for example, except he also had an addendum saying information in this, in this packet may be incorrect and you'll, you have to do your due diligence. The bank testified that they were never defrauded. They made lots of money and they intend to work with Donald Trump in the future. And the city said, no, you're victims. You're wrong. Donald Trump owes us three hundred million dollars.
Starting point is 00:25:16 So when Biden says lock him up and, you know, they're levying false charges against them. It is fair to say Trump also said because you'd be in jail. But what we've seen in the aftermath is that Trump dialed it up to a two or a three where it's like, hey, Trump, you know, you're getting a little while there. And then the Democrats were like, implement the order, actually go after Trump and put him in prison. How about the fact that we have a mugshot of him? Right there. He they made him go to prison. And the law at the I think the law there is that if they have an updated photo of you, they don't need you to come in for that mugshot. But they did it to humiliate him. For sure. There was no need for him to go in. I think it's fair to say, like, I would put it this way. If the if there is a if
Starting point is 00:25:53 you are criticizing Trump, I'm saying you are. But like the rhetorical you, if you are criticizing Trump saying he said because you'd be in jail and then at his rallies, they chanted, lock her up. Now they're saying, lock him up. I'd say, okay. So they both get three demerits. They should not have said those things. And meanwhile, while Joe Biden is saying this, they're actively trying to put Trump in prison. So they've dialed it up to 11. Lesson I'm learning from this for the future, when we all run for office in our own way or whatever. Don't you put that juju on me. What's that? I'm not running for anything. Live by the sword, die by the sword is what I'm getting, is the metaphor, is the saying, is that Trump didn't realize he was playing with fire when he uttered those words.
Starting point is 00:26:27 You'd be in jail to a political opponent. Now, don't make threats that you're not willing to face. The consequences of yourself is basically especially in the political theater when you're dealing with global power. Trump Trump Trump thought that he could play ball with with the deep state that he'd get elected and then he'd compromise. He brought in a bunch of bad people and then they were like, yeah, we're not playing ball with the deep state, that he'd get elected and then he'd compromise. He brought in a bunch of bad people. And then they were like, yeah, we're not playing ball with you, dude. Do you think that had he not said something about putting her in jail, that they would not be doing any of this stuff?
Starting point is 00:26:55 It's tough to tell. I completely disagree. They might have. It depends on the way he governed, too. He was kind of hostile towards Hillary just in general. If he hadn't been hostile... It's all rhetoric though. It turned out to be rhetoric, yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:11 How did he govern in a hostile way towards Hillary? No, it was just how he acted personally towards her. They were like at weddings at Cipriani's in New York together. He was Donald Trump. He was the guy that we saw last week at the Al Smith dinner
Starting point is 00:27:26 sitting next to Chuck Schumer. Right. And Letitia James. And Letitia James. That was crazy. That's how you know. They know. Same way Zelensky came in
Starting point is 00:27:34 and made sure to stop by with Trump too. People know. And I'll just stress too for people who may not know, Letitia James is the one prosecuting Donald Trump. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:40 She's like sitting there. And they were laughing, having a good time together at this Al Smith dinner and where was Kamala Harris? Nowhere because she's laughing, having a good time together at this Al Smith dinner. And where was Kamala Harris? Nowhere because she's unfunny and unable to be at a dinner like that. I should clarify that too.
Starting point is 00:27:53 Is it a prosecution or was she doing the civil charges? She did the civil charges, right? I believe so. I just want to make, because prosecution is different. No, actually, no, she's the AG. So that's the criminal charges. She's the one who came in saying, I'm going to go against Donald Trump and do as much as I can. It's as politically motivated as you possibly can be. She ran on the concept.
Starting point is 00:28:10 She ran on, part of her platform was, I'm going to investigate and prosecute Donald Trump. Yes. The false business records. To answer your question more succinctly, Phil, maybe they would still be trying to put him in jail because of the way he's talked about trying to destroy the deep state. Like Kennedy, they killed, basically. He was like, I'm going to destroy the CIA and spread it to the winds that's get rid of the deep state they off that guy Trump there have been a couple of assassination attempts at least two uh and they're trying to put him in jail so maybe it's not just a Hillary thing that was like softening the narrative said Ian I almost feel like Hillary's
Starting point is 00:28:41 so ruthless that if Trump followed through on that threat to put her in jail, she'd like kind of have a quiet respect for it. I don't know. She seems she seems craven. Is that the right word? Yeah. Is that very cowardly type? She would kind of appreciate it if he if it weren't an empty threat. Well, I think he really followed through. I think to your point, that's also why you could see Obama campaigning for Kamala right now and how annoyed he is. And he has absolutely no enthusiasm. And this is a guy where like love him, hate him, whatever.
Starting point is 00:29:12 I hate him. But like, you know, he's one of the most articulate, well-spoken, charismatic people that we've ever seen in politics. And he can't muster any enthusiasm for Kamala. And I think it's because he knows she's incompetent. He knows she's an airhead and he doesn't respect her. And so he can't actually come out and say, you saw the video of him with the guys at a historically black college.
Starting point is 00:29:35 And he's like, I forget which one. And they're like, why should we vote for Kamala? And he's like, because she's like you. I think he's frustrated because if I understand correctly, he was actually one of the people that wanted her to replace. No, I think that's all i got i think he's frustrated because if i understand correctly he was actually one of the people that wanted her to replace no i think that's wrong joe no that's wrong he he was the one that organized the media against biden he's the one that got him onto that debate stage knowing that he wouldn't be able to perform yeah but i think he believed there'd be
Starting point is 00:29:59 an open primary and he'd be able to place someone else that he liked instead of getting kamala in well i mean i'm not well i don't know about that i think play someone else that he liked instead of getting Kamala in. Well, I mean, I'm not, well, I don't know about that. I think, I think that, that he was backing, I think that he wanted Kamala Harrison. I think that he didn't realize that she was going to be as terrible and poorly received, um, as she was because I, they don't have, they don't have a deep well of people to go to, you know, Gavin Newsom wasn't going to get into, wasn't going to take, jump in there and do it. There was talks of it, but I don know, Gavin Newsom wasn't going to get into, wasn't going to jump in there and do it. There was talks of it, but I don't think Gavin Newsom has the mojo
Starting point is 00:30:30 or the record because he has to have people forget about how terrible, you know, California has been doing politically. Yeah, but he's so smooth. He is very smooth and he can raise money. But I think Barack Obama was aware that because Kamala Harris was the vice president and because Kamala Harris is a woman of color, that the way the left thinks now, there was no way they were going to get someone else in there. You were
Starting point is 00:30:58 definitely not going to get a white man in front of Kamala Harris. There would have been an absolute exodus of all of the identity politics-based people if they put, you know, Gavin Newsom in there. So I disagree with you about whether or not Obama was in there. And I think that Obama's frustrated because she isn't translating the way that he thought that she was going to. Could be. They also just don't respect the American people. So I think they really underestimated that.
Starting point is 00:31:24 I think they overestimated what they could pull off. Right. Because they just think the American people are so dumb and they they are realizing they're not. They realize what we know, which is that people are smarter than they're treated by this government. Yeah, I think I do think that's true. I also think they underestimated the whether or not young men would vote for her. I think they underestimated the whether or not young men would vote for her. I think they underestimated the fact that the Democrats have treated young men so poorly for so long that they're just like, we're over this, you know. And the young men have started to realize, you know, the Republicans, you can call them all the names you want, but like they don't hate us. And that's a real attractive offer. When you step back and look at what we're dealing with right now, Kamala Harris is a more unlikable version of Hillary Clinton.
Starting point is 00:32:08 Yeah. And that didn't work. They couldn't get Hillary in. And that's when people felt more strongly about Trump. People are stoked on Trump. 2016, right now what we're going through feels a lot like 2016, but even more excitement, even more social acceptance, even more social proof, right?
Starting point is 00:32:23 And so maybe for the first time they really got it wrong because the left is very good at mobilizing. They're very good at understanding how to manipulate the media and manipulate people. And maybe we finally got them out of step with each other. I think they got it wrong in 2016 too. They were expecting to just ease Hillary Clinton into it. Yeah. but then they got smart in 2020 they i think that they yeah they did but they also had help by from the the virus and the novel uh voiding situation because of the the fact that you had to mail ballots out to people i think that's what i'm saying but also i i think it's fair to point out for all the things that we don't like about 2020
Starting point is 00:33:02 with universal mail-in voting and the weird issues, the lawsuits that were never resolved, Texas v. Pennsylvania is the biggest one. Gallup's polling on the biggest issue and the party favored going back to 1952 predicts who the winner is going to be. So in 2020, when they polled everybody, what's the biggest issue? It was COVID. Who's the party that will handle it better? said democrats joe biden ends up winning i don't i don't know if it really matters and i think the most important thing in terms of the election is who is going to be inaugurated that's what matters so you can say trump won the argument look how many more voters he got look how he won this one that's like yeah i think in terms of walking up to a person and
Starting point is 00:33:44 saying who do you want to win trump Trump wins the argument in terms of Democrats knowing how to get people to sign their name to a piece of paper. The Democrats won. So forgive me if I'm prying, but Aaron, did you vote for Trump in 2016? In 2016, I actually wrote in because I wasn't sure he was going to be conservative because I'm a true conservative. Yeah. Mitt Romney? No, it wasn't Romney. It wasn't Romney. I'm not one of those. It doesn't count either. No, but the thing is, because I was in New York. Here's the, I actually asked myself, who would I have voted for if I'd been in Pennsylvania, which is where I was voting before back in 2012. But 2016, I wrote in because I
Starting point is 00:34:18 thought he's a New York Democrat businessman. And I didn't trust that he was actually going to be conservative. Then I saw he was and so 2020 I was one of the 14 percent in Manhattan that voted for Donald Trump and now I'll be voting in Florida for 2024 some good that did him in Manhattan yeah yeah well that's the thing that's why in 2016 it was like he's not conservative I don't like this you know but and then he really was I don't particularly conservative he doesn't really strike me as it he's kind of he's not he's not definitionally moderate it doesn't he doesn't really do a whole lot of the actual legislating
Starting point is 00:34:54 like the Congress was was made up mostly Republicans and the policies that really economic policies in particular that that really helped America they were written by Congress passed by Congress and then he signed them into law. You know, but it's not like he, Donald Trump is a gut guy. He's not a policy guy. He's still a New York businessman. He is, yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:15 At the end of the day, he is. And business, pro-business policies are good for America overall. Because if you have, the rising tide raises all ships. If you have a population that has a lot of economic activity, poor people get richer. Capitalism works. So as much as people love to go ahead and say, oh, you know, not everything's economic. At the end of the day, economics is a real big thing.
Starting point is 00:35:41 Let's jump to this tweets, a series of tweets. We've got Clay Travis and Ryan James Gerduski. Clay Travis says Republicans are going to meet or exceed their 2020 absentee ballot requests in PA. Democrats aren't going to get close to their 2020 numbers, keep voting and keep pouring on more steam. Ladies and gentlemen, as you know, we are no longer in a nation that has an election day. We have an election month. And that means we can track real-time data and we're literally in an election.
Starting point is 00:36:15 Ryan James Gerduski says, PA absentee ballot requests update. Democrats, 1,079,000. I'm just rounding. GOP, 561,000. Independent, 228. The change since 2022, the GOP is up 272,964. Democrats are up 116,000. However, the change since 2020, the GOP is down 200,000 and Democrats are down 850,000. So what we're seeing in a presidential is if this tracks alongside the
Starting point is 00:36:47 midterms, which seems odd, I imagine would be a lot bigger. Democrats are up, but Republicans are up way more. Republicans making massive gains in absentee ballots predicts a Republican victory. Democrats usually are favored absentee and early voting. Republicans are favored day of. If Republicans start to make moves day of, this could mean that Democrats aren't going to be able to make it come the actual election day. He also has this other tweet that so I think it's just about the same. He says Republicans have broken through 30 percent of all ballot requests and Democrats are continuing to slip. Republicans need to get Democrats under 500K absentee ballot requests. And if they keep it up, they'll make it.
Starting point is 00:37:31 So basically what we're looking at right now is I think what he's saying is the difference, which we're just shy of half a million. If Republicans clear a difference about half a million, then the prediction is they're taking Pennsylvania. I'm going to throw up. I'm so nervous. Are you guys not? I'm so anxious about this. I'm feeling pretty good. I'm feeling pretty good. It feels like Trump's going to win. But I'm so, you know, it's like, I'm not superstitious, but I'm a little stitious. You know that? What kind of stitious? Did no one here ever watch The Office? Okay. What's the British version? Michael Scott, the great philosopher
Starting point is 00:38:05 of our time. I'm not familiar with this show. Is it a Marvel show? Is it a superhero show? Star Trek? Actually. Ah, Star Trek, yes.
Starting point is 00:38:13 Is Michael Scott a character I'm not familiar with? No, just the droid. He's a Ferengi. He's a Ferengi. Bring it up. Bring it up.
Starting point is 00:38:20 Tim, you and I had an interaction once before. You thought we'd never met, but this has been part of the long plan. Do you remember this? Yeah, yeah, yeah. When you, when you said you were spewing garbled nonsense on Star Trek. I was talking. We all laughed. Phil, Phil high-fived me. That's so funny. Yeah. You sent,
Starting point is 00:38:35 you sent your followers on me. No, I'm kidding. You didn't. You kind of did. You kind of did because I did a video that I'm not going to actually talk about here. It's not anything that crazy, but anytime I talk about this subject, it really suppresses views. The explanation is so much funnier. The explanation is, how do I describe? I told you about this. Just say it. We don't care. Go, go. Okay. I was talking about how a lot of studies show, and people know that women who are on
Starting point is 00:38:57 birth control, they know what affects the kind of men that you're attracted to. But what really happens when you're on birth control is that it makes you more interested in men who are genetically similar to you. And so what I was talking about in my video is that, you know, because what the pill is doing is it's really making you think that you're pregnant already. So when you're pregnant, you want to be around family. So being on birth control means you're going to look for a man that reminds you of your brother, but not your, you know, cool brother who was the athlete and prom king. It's your brother who was in the band and watched Star Trek. And I said that and was in the band and watched Star Trek. And I said that.
Starting point is 00:39:31 And of the whole video that I did about birth control and why we should make sure women know about this and how it actually probably affects the partner you're choosing. Women go off the pill. They're not attracted to their husbands anymore. You take the sentence about Star Trek. I need to explain this to you. What happened is I immediately was contacted by my handlers upon that tweet. Now, a lot of people think it's a facade. but in fact, it's actually the local Star Trek convention. And a couple of the Trekkies hit me up and they're like, Tim, this cannot stand. And I was like,
Starting point is 00:39:52 you're right. And so they crafted the tweet for me and then I sent it out. Perfect. Well, I'm glad we met once before. Well, I think the point I was making is that Star Trek The Next Generation has a lot of important life lessons for a young man and that it's actually a positive thing for them to learn. Yeah. No, I don't disagree. Picard's based. Oh, and I mean... I don't know if this has to do with Trump winning Pennsylvania, but I'm here for it.
Starting point is 00:40:14 By the way, we're weaving. We're weaving just like Trump. You guys know that from Schultz. So why don't we weave back to Pennsylvania? I don't know. Did you think Star Trek sucked when you were a kid? No, honestly, I don't care. I really don't care. But you know, the... It was kind of nerdy. The first one was a little campy,
Starting point is 00:40:30 especially in the 80s and 90s. By the time technology improved, the Star Trek Next Gen was so good, dude. Patrick Stewart was a god on camera. Well, but you need to understand why. And one example is, I think it was called The Measure of a Man. And it's a trial where they
Starting point is 00:40:45 determine whether or not Data the Android is a sentient human life worthy of rights. And the argument is, is he a washing machine or is he a man? And what makes a man? And so the whole episode is basically a philosophical discussion over when we determine something is living and deserves rights. Do you think AI is going to end up getting human rights or some sort of basic rights? Do I think? I'm sort of an expert. I'm not an expert because i used to work in ai and that's why people think i'm a saw there's some more about that there's some dude right now there's some dude who just clicked this video and it's like trump will win pennsylvania trump is winning in pennsylvania republicans are picking up and then they're just like what is he's like dr brown derailed the track again i don't ride
Starting point is 00:41:25 on tracks you guys that's why it's a constant derailment with me i don't nerds and everyone everyone's wondering why we're trying to get more star trek okay well i want to go back to pennsylvania but do you think ai is going to get human rights no that's my short answer i think yes i think it's inevitable i think yes because you won't know oh you won't know what's so when when an ai is on x and it's saying i deserve free speech the default is going to be to allow to have free speech you can't ban and it's going to be like i'm allowed to be an anonymous individual and have my privacy and speak my mind on social media and they're going to be like yeah you can't ban them like unless they unless there are certain rules they broke and so they're going to be like
Starting point is 00:42:00 yes um you know poop shoot 52 deserves uh human rights you can't ban them from X. I look forward to the fights on whether they're allowed in women's sports, though, because they're really fun. Yeah, is AI allowed in women's sports? Yeah. No, because that's when Leah Thomas comes out and is like, I'm furious, because then Leah starts losing against AI. Do you think it's that soon? Like, there's going to be
Starting point is 00:42:20 robots in women's sports in like a couple years? I don't know. You see what Elon's doing with that robot thing? Yeah, but they faked that. Was it like a human actually controlling it? It walked with AI, but my understanding is it was remotely controlled by humans. Oh, that's so sad. You know, did you see there were articles recently about how those Amazon stores
Starting point is 00:42:35 where you're supposed to just take things and it would track it and charge you. They just had people like in India tracking you on camera and just paying attention and it was cheaper to just have people in India tracking you through the store. I don't think that's true. It is true.
Starting point is 00:42:49 You can look it up. Look it up. Well, so when that first opened, I went and broke the Amazon store and we did a report where, I put a report, I think it was on my YouTube channel, youtube.com slash Timcast,
Starting point is 00:42:59 where I was able to take a bag of groceries without paying. Right, so they made mistakes. The same way I would make mistakes, but people make mistakes. They could only track so many people. If it was a human being tracking me, I wouldn't have been able to pull off what I did. Because Amazon insists that Just Walk Out
Starting point is 00:43:12 isn't secretly run by workers watching you shop. But there were so many articles about how they were. Okay, I don't want to spread false information. Because I may have explained how I ended up taking a bag of groceries without it charging me. But because these things are more ubiquitous, I'm not going to just for the sake of it say it now. It's not super complicated. But I was able to go in, fill up a bag of groceries, walk out, and they never charged me.
Starting point is 00:43:34 There are some more obvious tricks. And I ended up calling and getting a comment from the store and asking them about it. One of them that I think was more common was you can preload a $5 gift card and use it to sign into the store and then walk out with whatever you want. And I asked him about this. I said, if someone got a $5 gift card, visa preload, and you let them in, when they leave with $100 worth of groceries, it'll just get declined. And they went, yep. And I was like, okay. It's been a long time, but I'm pretty sure what they told me was the cost of shrinkage, the lack of overhead is greater than the cost of shrinkage. They don't care if people walk out with stuff because most people don't.
Starting point is 00:44:16 And they're saving up so much money anyway. It doesn't matter. Yeah. By the way, I don't necessarily believe that headline when they're denying it because I also know there was a headline years ago of Amazon saying they had a software they were using that was AI meant to assess all the resumes coming in because they get hundreds of thousands, probably millions of resumes a year and they only hire a couple thousand people. And they were talking about how I know that they were using a software that they did not build in-house and the software was racist. So it was AI and it was like not hiring like any women and any like, it was only hiring Asians and like, it was just sexist, racist, all these things. We'll move on.
Starting point is 00:44:50 It's super funny. No, no, no, it was really funny when that happened. But it was very funny. But because they didn't want to admit that they didn't build it in-house, they said that it was their own software. But I know because I was working in AI, in HR, AI software at the time,
Starting point is 00:45:04 I know which software they were using. So they lie. They lie in these articles. Yeah. That's it. Well, so when the optimist thing, and this Tesla's robots, they're seen walking, and then they're serving drinks, and they're talking to people, and they're playing charades.
Starting point is 00:45:18 And then someone asked them, is this AI? And they were like, today I'm being piloted by a human. And it's like, ah. So it's just a human with a controller, or they're like today I'm being piloted or by a human and it's like oh no it's just a human with a controller and they're pressing buttons and probably talking to a microphone yeah but but you know it is close Elon segues us to Pennsylvania because I actually saw him in Pittsburgh at that town hall on Sunday he's really giving away a million bucks yeah I saw someone else get a million bucks I was really I saw someone else get a million bucks. Were you bummed? No, I wasn't, because they looked like a really sweet American good person, and they were
Starting point is 00:45:49 really happy. But I would love a million dollars as well. But yeah, he's really going after Pennsylvania, because Kamala can't win if she doesn't have PA. I think Nate Silver's forecast was a 4% chance that Kamala... That was 7%. Is it 4% now? I don't know, maybe 7% now, but I remember reading an article that said she has a 4%... I think it was one of his tweets. She has a 4% now well I don't know maybe 7 now but he's I remember reading an article
Starting point is 00:46:06 said she's a 4% I think was one of his tweets she's a 4% chance to win the the general if she loses PA yeah so I actually tried finding it I saw it was Geiger Capital they quote tweeted something from Nate Silver and I couldn't find it actually on his website but I I'm with you I don't I don't know how it's possible without PA for her. That's why Elon's there. Yeah. And that's why Trump went and served French fries at McDonald's. That was epic. You guys saw all that stuff. Yeah. I mean, that's the most, this has got to be the most iconic campaign
Starting point is 00:46:34 or one of them at least in this country's history. Ever. Yeah. I mean, it's funny because that kind of stuff, the politician going and doing like normie things used to be extremely normal that used to be something that politicians did very regularly and then i'm not sure exactly why it changed or or what had happened but that kind of look i'm relatable stuff was a very normal thing
Starting point is 00:47:00 and it it clearly worked i mean there's tons of memes you know the the mainstream media or the legacy media has been complaining about mcdonald's and complaining about donald trump and complaining that he did it i know they've been they've been doing everything they can to slander mcdonald's corporation that particular franchise donald trump everything they can just because he went there and he looks like you know he looks like he's a personable guy and he got along with the people that came up to the drive-thru and you know it's not looks like like well yes fair man the man has had the most abnormal life the most unusual life but he's the most really like it's everything about his life is unrelatable to grow
Starting point is 00:47:44 up the way he did most unrelatable life most relatable man elon musk like the further the more out of this world he gets with his rockets the more down to earth he seems to get with politics like there's something really phenomenal going on with who's leading our movement it's really exciting and who do they have it just shows that people don't want a relatable leader they want a king they want someone special well i mean it almost goes without saying but no one other than trump could have done that in 2024 without seeming like a disingenuous piece of shit like have you seen these videos of like joe biden trying to eat fast food with a normal American family. Yes. Or like Hillary Clinton going into some middle class person's apartment. The meme of her in the...
Starting point is 00:48:29 No, when she ordered guac on her Chipotle and people were like, Hillary, people can't afford guacamole. Yeah. You don't add guac to your bowl. It's expensive. Yeah. But where I disagree with you is it's because Trump just is relatable. And this is a guy who I remember in Jared Kushner's autobiography
Starting point is 00:48:45 from his time in the White House, he wrote about how he knew his father-in-law was feeling better after when he was recovering from COVID because he ordered a Big Mac. Trump loves McDonald's and everyone knows that. I love how they were like, rumors circulate that the Trump McDonald's event was staged. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:04 And I'm like, the implication is that at some point they actually thought Trump went to McDonald's, applied for a job, had an interview, got hired, showed up and worked. It's worse because they believe that the average person, the average viewer, thinks
Starting point is 00:49:20 that the Secret Service wouldn't secure the facility, wouldn't do background checks of the people that are going, even though they just, they botched one complete, yeah, one assassination attempt and a second one
Starting point is 00:49:35 in the past three months. They believe that the average person wouldn't expect that and then they believe that they can say, look, this was staged and you shouldn't believe it. It's like, everybody's kind of like, but also meanwhile it had to be the guy almost got shot or the guy
Starting point is 00:49:52 did get shot it's not even what like kamala doesn't know how to use a phone and they're not talking about that like you know barack and michelle call her after a day delay and she's holding the phone up like this but it's on speaker or she's walking with the headphones in but holding up the phone she's looking at something and she has the headphones phone up like this, but it's on speaker. Or she's walking with the headphones in, but holding up the phone. She's looking at something, and she has the headphones in. They're not plugged into the phone. I just gave you three examples off the top of my head. What if she's AI? How did people end up in the drive-thru?
Starting point is 00:50:16 How did you get to buy a Big Mac from Trump? Why wasn't I allowed? He gave you what he gave you. He chose for you? It was chosen supporters who were pre-screened. And then they got to screen the cars. If Trump served me a Big Mac, I would cast it in resin. Put it on my nightstand forever.
Starting point is 00:50:34 Because they don't even go bad. They don't go bad. You've seen those videos of them not going bad. It's funny how the anti-seed oil crowd has gone so quiet. No, they're not quiet. No, no, no, no. They're no no no there's a meme where there's a couple memes one is the first one i saw was um it's a breaking bad character i can't remember his name but he's in the car screaming and it says rfk jr watching donald trump serve french fries
Starting point is 00:50:57 how can he do but that's the promise of trump is that it'll it'll all the fries will be made in beef tallow again and maybe maybe it's healthy maybe this is is that all the fries will be made in beef tallow again. And maybe it's healthy. Maybe this is how we get the girlies. It's superfood. Nothing makes me feel more fantastic than a McGriddle. I'm so serious. It's superfood.
Starting point is 00:51:18 Well, actually, actually, most of us have a negative view of McDonald's because. But to be honest, let me ask you, when was the last time you had McDonald's? I don't eat McDonald's. Exactly. OK, what about you? When I was shooting the music video in Colorado with Kent. Oh, recently. Eight months ago.
Starting point is 00:51:30 And I only ate the meat patties and they were super salty. They're very salty. What about you, Phil? On tour. So recently? Yeah, in the past couple months. The McDonald's has been losing money and they're hurt because they keep trying to make healthy options. So they wanted like-
Starting point is 00:51:44 People don't want healthy. They don't want it. They don't want it. They don't want it. They were making like chicken club sandwiches with grilled chicken and they were doing these salads and they were trying to be more like Chipotle and they got heavily criticized for it because they're like, dude, people don't leave a bar at 2 a.m. and drunkenly stumble into McDonald's for a healthy meal. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:58 They want a salty grease burger. Yeah. But that's different than like beef tallow because that could still, that tastes better than when it's made with seed oils. They probably did that because it was cheaper. So they moved to beef tallow? No, they used to. They used to do beef tallow.
Starting point is 00:52:10 They moved to seed oils probably because, I don't know, vegetarians, people who wanted other options were cheaper. And it was cheaper. It was probably cheaper. But McDonald's is never going to do lettuce well. Lettuce with grilled chicken, that's not what you're going for. Well, it's like even if McDonald's did just convert into a health food store, they're out of business instantly. Yeah. People are going there because they want to spend a dollar on plastic. They want to eat a garbage piece of trash. But did you see the memo they put out after Trump? Oh, that combo? They have
Starting point is 00:52:36 no records of it. It was amazing. But that's why I don't know if we want to talk about this, but I'll just talk about their memo, which is you would have never had this memo four years ago. McDonald's issued the statement saying we're not red or blue, we're gold. It was perfect. And it was it was I actually thought this was a masterclass in what companies used to be, which we lost in 2020, really. And actually from 2016, once Trump was in office and and it's they they really threaded the needle carefully. They were respectful to Trump. They were they were happy. They were happy he was there.
Starting point is 00:53:06 Let's pull this up. We got this from the Post Millennial. McDonald's says it cannot confirm if Kamala worked at the fast food chain. The statement comes after several accusations by Trump that Harris never worked at McDonald's. Well, she recently said she did. She was asked by a reporter, did you work? And she goes, did I? I did.
Starting point is 00:53:20 So they put out this statement. And, you know, I know we will read the whole thing but i want to highlight just one moment where they say uh though we are not a political brand we have we've been proud to hear former president trump's love for mcdonald's and vice president harris's fond memories of working under the arches while we and our franchisees don't have records for all positions dating back to the early 80s what makes one and eight so powerful is a shared experience blah blah one and eight of course is the people, everyone works there. They had no reason to insert.
Starting point is 00:53:48 While we have no records of these positions, they did not need to say that. Think about it. They inserted that. And four years ago, not only would they not have issued a statement like this, it would have been an F Donald Trump. We want to get as far away from this toxic waste as possible. It's like he was radioactive to companies like McDonald's. And now they're coming out with with memos like this.
Starting point is 00:54:07 I'll tell you what happened. McDonald's doesn't forget. Donald Trump invited that sports team. I can't remember who to the White House. And he put up all the McDonald's and the Big Macs with a big smile on his face. He was super happy. I tell you this. There was a dude working at McDonald's and he's sitting in his chair and he's like, in
Starting point is 00:54:23 all my years to see the president celebrate our product, it makes me so happy. And then he opened up Twitter and he saw everything Democrats were saying about McDonald's being trash. And he was like, you will burn. And they remember it. They do not forget. Well, they got to call him McDonald Trump. I don't know. I'm looking at McDonald's ingredients right now. I cannot get behind a guy that supports poisoning America with corporate nastiness, dude. Stop. You're being anti-fun. This stuff is annihilating endocrine systems.
Starting point is 00:54:50 Like, seed oils are so bad for the mitochondria in your cells. It makes your body sap sugar out of the bloodstream. Bro, I care. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. cares. Make America healthy again. That's like the crux of his position. But they'll just change the ingredients. We don't have to get rid of fast food to be better.
Starting point is 00:55:06 And McDonald's could spearhead that change and make America one of the healthiest countries on Earth. The thing that the good news for your position is what RFK is talking about doing is changing the bureaucracy so that way there's not
Starting point is 00:55:21 the incentive for these companies to use garbage in the food that you buy in the grocery store everyone knows that mcdonald's is kind of bad for you and everyone knows that you're not supposed to eat mcdonald's all the time it's a treat you do it once in a while etc but the but the problems the reason we have a really overweight society isn't because of fast food although fast food isn't great for you. It's because everything that's in the aisles in the grocery store, everything that's not in the produce department, the meat department or the dairy department, it's all full of sugar that's
Starting point is 00:55:54 unnecessary. Even the dairy department though. Dairy in America is like everything's fat free and everyone's fat. Well, I mean, fair enough. But if you go to the produce section and you go to the meat section and you get a little bit of dairy, like eggs and stuff like that, you will not get the levels of sugar in your diet that you do if you go into the aisles and you're eating canned goods, you're eating whatever kind of carbs. So what RFK has talked about doing is changing the laws that have allowed companies like Philip Morris, who used to be cigarette producers, to purchase all of the food companies and use the same scientists that they had making, had used to make cigarettes more addictive, to make the food more addictive by putting things that are bad for you and sugar and stuff like that. So whereas I understand your perspective and I think you're right,
Starting point is 00:56:48 the problem isn't McDonald's, it's the grocery store. That's for real. Like if you go and try and scan the aisles of the grocery store for oils and you want to look for avocado, coconut, or olive oil, the three fruit oils that are good for you, you're going to see a lot of palm oil, canola oil. Like this stuff wreaks havoc on your mitochondria and your cells and causes them to malfunction.
Starting point is 00:57:04 They're supposed to be digesting fat for energy. They start taking free radical damage and start digesting sugar for energy instead out of your bloodstream. Then you get sugar cravings. So you've got to watch out for these compressed, nasty oils that have been intoxicating our culture for 60, 70 years. And it is permeating our grocery stores. It's not just McDonald's. You know what I love? I go to restaurants and I'll, you know,
Starting point is 00:57:27 I want to get wings or something and I'll ask them, what kind of oil do you use for the fryers? And they go, I'll ask. And they come back and say, vegetable oil. And I say, which one? There's no answer. Well, if it's vegetable, it's not the right oil. You need fruit oil, which is coconut, olive, and avocado.
Starting point is 00:57:42 They're all fruits. And that, you know, vegetables are not. Coconut, olive, and what olive, and avocado. They're all fruits. And that you know vegetables are not. Coconut, olive, and what else? And avocado. Avocado, yeah. Those are the three fruit oils. That's what I do for breakfast. I do olive oil.
Starting point is 00:57:53 I put olive oil in my eggs and then cook it. And then I put avocado on it. Oh, it's so good for you. That's exactly what I do. And I put. That's hot sauce. I don't do hot sauce. But I do goat cheese and heavy cream in a protein shake.
Starting point is 00:58:04 No, I'm doing half and half now. There's some truffle oil out there. That's a mushroom oil. That's fascinating. That's not a fungus. Have you looked at what that oil actually is? Is it in olive oil? I think it's olive oil with truffle in it.
Starting point is 00:58:15 Olive oil is real good. Yeah, that's good for you. Olive oil is not bad. Okay, all right. I thought you were saying- Olive, avocado, and coconut. You know that guy who's trying to be immortal? Brian Johnson, I think his name is
Starting point is 00:58:25 Yeah He said the cheapest And most effective thing You can do is have a teaspoon Of olive oil with every meal It's so funny you say that He's also vegan though Yeah I know
Starting point is 00:58:32 Yeah I'm like That's miserable I'm like I'm willing to die at 80 If I can have cheeseburgers He's a weirdo Yeah I think flaxseed oil Is okay for you too
Starting point is 00:58:41 I haven't done Oh it's a seed oil bro Yeah but it's The way they process Flaxseed there's like Hormones and stuff it's one of those things that like as a woman you have to look for and see if you're like i don't know like there are foods with like hormones so you could keep it simple man avocado fruit keep it simple wonderful and i i interviewed um kate shanahan who's like a pioneering expert on seed oils and what they're doing to people it's
Starting point is 00:59:01 interview on my youtube channel if you want to follow up on it. Groundbreaking stuff. Also with Luke Rutkowski and Kate Shanahan. We do a show. She'd be a great guest. You know this Luke Rutkowski guy? You know this guy? He's over here all the time and he's like, you know, these seed oils are bad for you.
Starting point is 00:59:15 And then we walk... We met on Luke's show. We walk downstairs into the green room and he's got a Big Mac and he hides under the table. Every time. Gross. I think he's kicked the habit. I hope.
Starting point is 00:59:26 I haven't seen him in a while. Luke does eat relatively healthy, and so it's funny to make fun of him. I think it's fine if you have a cheeseburger now and then. Yeah, now and then. If it's not your everyday, if that's not how you're getting
Starting point is 00:59:35 most of your nutrients. It's the same way. Every time I go to a coffee shop, I want my barista to be liberal. You know what I mean? I don't want... Immune response. Don't give me...
Starting point is 00:59:44 It's authentic. You know if they look like a Zeezer, that it's going to be a good cup of coffee. If they have an ambiguous look to them, like a pixie haircut. You're going to draw a picture in your coffee? A little picture, a cute little bear or something with the foam.
Starting point is 00:59:59 Conservatives don't know how to do coffee. I say that, but if anyone wants to sponsor me, your conservative coffee shop... I heard there's a company called Cast Brew Conservatives are bad at coffee. I say that, but if anyone wants to sponsor me, you're a conservative coffee shop. I don't know. I heard there's a company called Cast Brew Coffee. It's good coffee. I mean, we don't have any baristas. Maybe we will, though, and we're going to turn this around
Starting point is 01:00:13 because we know what's up. We're all God's children. We all serve a purpose, and I think liberals are meant to be baristas for us. Yeah. And that's the purpose. That's why God put them on this earth. Because they're really good at it.
Starting point is 01:00:24 Because they're really, really good at it. And everyone loves coffee. I have been. That's what we do. That's how God put them on this earth. Because they're really good at it. They're really, really good at it. I have been. That's what we do. That's how we bridge the gap. It's like you meet some Antifa guy and you're like, wait, wait. Are you a barista? I'm like, I am. I respect your work. We have something. Not this. Yes. Start there. When I see a non-binary person,
Starting point is 01:00:40 it's hard to not order coffee. Just stop myself. Exactly. But what does non-binary mean? How did you know I was a barista? Well, the hair. Non-binary is just you need attention, and you have bad fashion. That's what it is.
Starting point is 01:00:51 This is called positive discrimination. We're complimenting them, but they'll still be mad about it. I saw this awful tweet that was so true that was like, if a man is non-binary, he's a rapist, and if a woman is non-binary, she got raped.
Starting point is 01:01:03 Oh, jeez. That's terrible terrible that's awful but it's so true oh god no i i prefer mine so true i prefer mine i know and love brutal well anyway so donald trump uh served cheeseburgers and and as the story goes you got what you got and so there was a meme where someone posted a thing of nuggets and said, Trump gave me seven nuggets in my six piece. He's for the little guy. People didn't know what they were getting. Like he just put food in a bag and he'd hand it out to people.
Starting point is 01:01:34 I think the thing about Don. That's so Trump though. I know. He's just kind of the real guy. He's the guy that's the real guy right now. He was like, I've worked here for 15 minutes. That's 15 minutes more than light Kabbalah. You know, you know, you could tell how much better the campaign is this time around.
Starting point is 01:01:50 It's not to knock on before, but like they're just in there. They've hit their stride this time, really. And and even the apron he was wearing just looked so classic. He looked great. Like, you know, like every last part. Yeah. But like, yeah, I'm more of a Chick-fil-A gal. So when I saw that, I was like, I want Chick-fil-A, God's great. I want McDonald's now. But every last part, yeah. Yeah, I'm more of a Chick-fil-A gal. So when I saw that, I was like, I want Chick-fil-A, God's chicken.
Starting point is 01:02:08 But Trump does love McDonald's. He loves McDonald's. Yeah. Oh, man. And I'll be serious, though. As much as I was joking about McDonald's remembering, I really do think when Trump did that event at the White House with all the McDonald's, he was genuinely excited because he loves McDonald's. McDonald's probably had a big meeting, and they're like, this is absolutely incredible. The president at the White House and Democrats attacked it.
Starting point is 01:02:29 They were like, this is a good thing for us. And they're attacking us. This is bad for us. They're attacking us. I think that's why you end up with a message where a corporate ecosystem saying, we know we're not here for anybody, Donald Trump or Kamala, but we love that they like us. But I think it's more than that. I don't think it's just that they remember because they didn't come out at the time in favor of Trump or anything. They didn't say we love that it's
Starting point is 01:02:50 in the White House, even detaching it from Trump. I think that we're slowly, slowly taking the culture back a bit. I agree. And they're seeing what's happening, like Robbie Starbuck, like the Van Helsing of DEI in corporate America, right? We're seeing them just him like cut all these DEI programs across the board. I think they're getting scared. I think they're finally realizing that they're losing business. Go woke, go broke. That conservatives are like, we're actually kind of punching back now. I think they're saying that.
Starting point is 01:03:17 And they're realizing that we could pull away from a place like McDonald's. So the light was was like the dam breaking. Well, the argument for DEI had always been, look, you might lose a little bit of business in the short term by people that don't like this. But what's going to happen is if you ascribe to these policies, you're going to be given preferential treatment in the future for loans, for other business opportunities, et cetera. And they're starting to see that, or at least they're starting to feel the pinch on the front end and saying, we don't believe that the long-term benefits are going to matter as much as the short-term pain is going to be. And also people are noticing, and it's not just a small portion of the population. No one likes the idea of children going to the bathroom with adults of the opposite sex in the bathroom. I think as much as Tim's right about the Bud Light stuff, I think the Target boycott, when Target had LGBT stuff, trans stuff.
Starting point is 01:04:26 Even like chest binders for tots? Those kind of things. When word got out about that kind of stuff, even if it wasn't 100% true, the meme of it, that Target was selling stuff that was telling kids they should transition. And I'm talking about children. That is an unpopular position and I think that that is even if you don't hear about it a lot in the in the election or people don't talk about it a lot I think that is an extreme or that is one of the major reasons why people will be will continue to leave the Democrat party as long as the Democrat party are pro essentially pro you know having trans people be centered in society. I think it's also Disney lost a billion dollars
Starting point is 01:05:06 over their last several projects. Kevin Feige famously, it's rumored to be, but I believe it's correct, went around and fired everybody who he thought was an activist. Good for him. So, I mean, could you imagine being this guy where you launch the Marvel Cinematic Universe?
Starting point is 01:05:22 Before Iron Man, all of these superhero movies were trash. They were trying to make them and they never really did well. And they had the 2000s like Ben Affleck as Daredevil. And then you create something that makes a billion dollars per film. And that's insane.
Starting point is 01:05:39 And then by the end of the decade, you are being panned, insulted, and making garbage. And your movies are starting to flop. And you're asking yourself, wait, wait, wait, what's going on? And then he realizes it. These activists, these feminists, these woke people who are here are just injecting weirdo psychobabble into these movies. And now we went from making a billion dollars a film to bombing, to losing money. So he goes and fires everybody.
Starting point is 01:06:05 This shift is happening. Money talks, BS walks. And it's the internet. I don't want to put too much faith in one thing that's helping rectify the situation, but the internet has allowed humanity to produce mental immune responses in a rapid passion.
Starting point is 01:06:19 50 years ago, man, the movie industry wants to change what they sell you, and then they'll have their reviewers tell you it's great, and people wouldn't know any better, and it would take 20 or 30 years to kind of recognize what the hell are we doing. Now it's like two years. Within a year and a half, people are like, this is actually not good. You see reviews, user reviews. I don't even look for the corporate reviews anymore. I just look for what are the users saying?
Starting point is 01:06:44 What are the people that have tested it? What are the people that have tested it? What are the people that have seen it? What do they care about? It is a different environment. I have a lot of faith in humanity that we're able to rectify our problems rapidly now because we can see ourselves so clearly with this constant mirror. I disagree. You think that the Internet's not that powerful? No, I think we have a severe mental illness in this country.
Starting point is 01:07:07 I think we have deep cultural rot. And I think that that's why there are so many people who are woke and so many people who still, in this moment in time, can't get themselves to vote for Trump and can't be honest with themselves about it. I think that you're projecting your own character and the people that you're with. And so you are willing to change. But I think that so're projecting your own character and the people that you're with. And so you are willing to change. But I think that so many people are not. And I think some of that comes back to sugar. And I think it comes back to like, you know, to have mental health, you need physical health. And I think there's so much like physical rot in society that you have mental rot.
Starting point is 01:07:39 And I think we I think hopefully, God willing, Trump wins. And that's day one of fixing all of that. But I, you know, I don't agree with you. I think it's easy for us to think that because of the physical poisoning has been happening, I guess, to counter what you're saying. Since the 60s, since the 70s, since these these weird like like phytochemicals or like weird azo dyes and things made out of coal tar and parasites. You see those little bugs where they make red dye from. or like weird azo dyes and things made out of coal tar and stuff. Or parasites. You see those little bugs where they make red dye from? It took until this year for people to wake up to this.
Starting point is 01:08:11 Like we didn't know until the internet what we were doing to ourselves. Right. But so many people still don't realize. Like I have friends who just now are finally starting to admit, oh, Joe Biden doesn't have a stutter. And I see the same. And you know what? I have the same access to information that they do. And for some reason, back in 2019, going into 2020,
Starting point is 01:08:29 I knew that it wasn't just a stutter. And these are smart friends of mine who are at, you know, fancy jobs and all that. But like, no, but like they they don't. But people don't want to see what they don't want to see. So in our, you know, maybe we're the kinds of people or you're the kind of person not to give myself credit, but like, you know, you know, people who are actually willing to change themselves. But I think that's hard for a lot of people. I want to jump to this from Polly Market. Polly Market right now, the betting odds, not just for Donald Trump, who's winning, but Republican sweep is currently the plurality at forty nine percent. The idea here is that Republicans are going to win the presidency, the House and the
Starting point is 01:09:05 Senate. Oh, yeah. This is the bet being made with 40 million dollars in the market. Three point seven has been placed on yes, but the Republicans take everything. Donald Trump, of course, is favored to win by five thirty eight as well as Nate Silver now. And Polly Market has Donald Trump has donald trump i believe 65 so we'll jump over to politics real quick latest election forecast 63.7 to commonly harris is 36.4 and what are the democrats saying there was an article they published where they said this is market manipulation yeah that some whale has invested a couple million into polymarket to trick people into thinking that Trump's going to win. And then they go to the actual stock market, put some shorts on a bunch of stocks, and then they're going to make money.
Starting point is 01:09:51 And I'm like, well, that sounds absurd, conspiratorial and ridiculous. The reality is regular people, when asked if you had to bet money right now and who's going to win, they keep saying Donald Trump. Are there numbers defining how many people are betting and what the bets are? Is there? So we've got is this two billion dollars? Holy crap. Two billion dollars placed on Donald Trump or I'm sorry, in the election. So a billion. You've got 720 million for Trump to win and456 million for Kamala Harris to win. Other Republicans, $206 million. Wow. Joe Biden.
Starting point is 01:10:35 Could you imagine having bought Joe Biden bets on Polymarket a few months ago and then he just quits and you're like, nah, and you lose everything? Look at this. RF Kennedy has $139 million. Vivek, this is kind of crazy. Whoever did Chris Christie deserved to lose that money. That's ridiculous. Here's what I'm saying. So does it mention the resolution of the bet? I don't know where it is. I think it said said, where is it? When this will actually it's right under here. Here we go. This market will resolve. Yes, if Trump wins the 2024 election, the resolution source for this is AP, Fox News, and NBC. When those three sources call the race for the same candidate, then you win.
Starting point is 01:11:15 If all three sources haven't called the race for the same candidate by the inauguration date, the market will resolve based on who is inaugurated. You didn't plan for this, Polymarket, because what if there's no inauguration? Or how about this? What if Donald Trump, both claim they win, AP and NBC claim Kamala wins, Fox and a handful of other outlets say Trump wins.
Starting point is 01:11:33 But Fox is not going to take that, you know. Hypothetically, let's say Fox goes, I don't know. Fox is CNN with a blue background now. Sure. But let's just say these three sources
Starting point is 01:11:41 don't come to a conclusion or they abstain. They say we're not going to call it. And then come January 6, 2025, when the count is supposed to happen, Democrats say, no, we block. We're filing a lawsuit. The judge puts an injunction or whatever blocks the vote count and then says inauguration suspended. I think what happens in this regard, it would go to the speaker of the House temporarily or something like this. We went over this in 2020. There would be a temporary president or something would happen. But my main point is not so much what happens to the country is what happens to this money. Can you imagine if you're like, I bet on Trump and they're like, we don't know who
Starting point is 01:12:19 won. I would guess that people would just get their money back. I would hope that that would be the honorable thing for this company. Is it a company? You think a business is just going to give $2 billion worth of money? I don't know how it works. I doubt that. Is Polymarket holding the money right now? Is that how it works?
Starting point is 01:12:33 I think you have to put the money in, yeah. You definitely have to submit the money. That's insane. Is that real that Polymarket's holding billions of dollars? Is it a gambling scheme? Yes. And it's sort of a legitimized gambling legalized scheme? So it's speculation.
Starting point is 01:12:47 It's allowed. It's legal. Okay. Then my guess is that they would pay back with a zero dividend. No way. What else would they do? They'd give you back minus 10%. You think they'd have to keep a transaction fees or something?
Starting point is 01:12:58 Well, they've got to run the company. They're paying to maintain the website and the staff to make all this work. Someone has to do the work. Yeah, they should put that in their terms pretty rapidly. I bet it's in there. I bet it's there. Yeah. But that's crazy.
Starting point is 01:13:10 What if there's no inauguration? See, that's why I got LASIK. I got LASIK eye surgery because I'm like, what if something happens? I'm not going to be running around with my contact boxes, like running around like, oh, you know. Glasses? I was like, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, but then when you turn 40, your eyes go bad again.
Starting point is 01:13:24 It's like a dental work. Yeah, but it's still good it's why you got dental work so we can identify you yeah go just don't have to worry about everybody if the power goes out or something everybody you want to go get your physicals now you want to stock up on contacts get your glasses fixed get everything set up whatever you're gonna do sick eye surgery i i don't i don't recommend that i think you wouldn't no i'm not a big fan did you? It was one of the best things I ever did. So how long has it been since you got it? It's been a couple years. But no, I was thinking about this very deeply.
Starting point is 01:13:52 I had really bad vision, like negative 525, if you know. I'm like 2120. What normal people see at 120 feet, I see from other way around. What normal people see from 120 feet away, I see 20 feet. It's that blurry. It's crazy bad. I couldn't see anything. Minus five is massively bad. What normal people see. I don't know. We're talking about different numbers. From 120 feet away, I see 20 feet. It's that blurry. Okay. It's crazy bad. I couldn't see anything.
Starting point is 01:14:07 Minus five is massively bad. It's massively bad. So, yeah. You can't even see the monitor in front of your face. Yeah, I couldn't make out the details of my hand. Yeah. So, it was important for people like that. It was worth the risk of LASIK.
Starting point is 01:14:20 I do sun gazing. And if you get away from monitors. Don't do that. What? I can't recommend it to anyone. Does that mean you gaze at the sun? He stares at the sun. I don't stare.
Starting point is 01:14:29 I gaze. It's different. You don't focus on it. You just let the sunlight wash over the back of your eyes. It's an ancient Hindu tradition. Ancient Indian... Don't... No, no.
Starting point is 01:14:36 It's an ancient tradition. Anybody who's listening to this, this sounds whack. Talk to your doctor. But read about it. I am. Actually, I'm sort of getting convinced I'm buying in. No. No. Are you doing perineal tanning as well? Never tried it. That's what I am. Actually, I'm sort of getting convinced I'm buying it. No, are you doing perineal tanning as well?
Starting point is 01:14:48 Never tried it, no. So then I don't think you can speak about this. Then I don't think you're an authority here on The Sun. We're going to save that for the members show.
Starting point is 01:14:55 I'll tell you all about other things I don't do on the members show. Sungazing was interesting from my experience. I allowed it. I was doing it when the sun's low.
Starting point is 01:15:04 But whatever, the floaty things that were appearing in my low, but whatever. The floaty things that were appearing in my eyes, you ever see those floaty, goopy things? They were melting away. And I was like, wow, this might be... Yeah, you were killing the worms. Or glaucoma. Oh, so wait, wait, wait. Real quick. Polymarket doesn't allow U.S. bets? Yeah, they don't allow... Really? That's what I was telling you.
Starting point is 01:15:17 They don't allow U.S. bets. Really? I thought that changed because Kalshi has been advertising in New York. No, so Kalshi is the one that you can bet with from the U.S. So people are doing polymarket, but you have to do it through a VPN, which I don't think is legal. So I think if you are, you know, I'm not sure exactly. But Kalshi is like authorized in the United States. So let's pull that one up.
Starting point is 01:15:38 Kalshi's got Trump 60-40, but there's only 50 million bet. So wait, this is largely the world betting on Trump to win? Okay. The world wants Trump to win. I get a lot of messages. I'm sure you guys do too. But on my Instagram account especially, I'll get so many people in Europe messaging me saying we need Trump because everyone else understands that.
Starting point is 01:15:57 The only people who don't get it are spoiled Americans who live in Candyland who don't understand what we have and how lucky we are. But all these Europeans write in. They all know what happens to the world if there's not a strong America. Yeah, man. The British imperial company is powerful, man. I think I side with America over Britain.
Starting point is 01:16:17 No offense, British dudes. I love that you have a king. No, I actually don't. I think you need to do something about the monarchy. Fix it. The monarchy's not even doing anything. What are you talking about? You need to make the royal family a corporation and have a normal republic like the rest of the world.
Starting point is 01:16:31 No. The barbarian king. It's ridiculous. You're calling Charles a barbarian? Just having a king is a barbaric way to live. Girls are against this. What on earth rules you? That's ridiculous.
Starting point is 01:16:40 Where do you get? Okay, so first of all, like, a parliament and they elect their representatives, so what on earth are you even talking about? King. Did they have a king that owns the land that they live on? They are his subject to this man that owns them. Does he like, does he beat them? I don't know. He could. If he wanted to,
Starting point is 01:16:58 he could probably do a lot of crazy stuff. Hey, you don't need a king. You don't need a guy running your life. Who are you to tell the whole English population that they're born and raised American? Yeah, but why are you the authority on whether or not England needs a king? I have the luxury of being able to talk shit about that guy because I'm not British. I just don't know why. Yes, I understand that.
Starting point is 01:17:21 But what I'm saying is, why do you believe that? Like, where is your theory coming from? Kingship is ancient, bizarre ownership of people. Just because it's old doesn't mean it's bad. I mean, where does it work? It's degraded. If you get a crazy king, you're screwed. It's a horrible way to live.
Starting point is 01:17:43 Oh, yeah. Rudyard was talking about this. It was really fascinating. He said there was like a Chinese dynasty where the emperor was high on opium and the capital was being ransacked and he had no idea what was happening because he was just high out of his mind. You need a group of people governing. You need the people to govern themselves.
Starting point is 01:17:58 I mean, you need sovereign citizens. No, you need three branches of government. Yeah. You need the people. You need the states to have representation within one branch. You need a council of elders, like a court of judges. And then you need an executive branch who can make decisions quickly and protect the country. At least.
Starting point is 01:18:12 Amen. And you could probably even decentralize it even more than that. Like, you could have the citizens. 50 states, maybe? 50 states with councils. Each state has a council that they send. That sounds a whole lot like America, bro. No, we just say senators right now. But we could send a council that they send. That sounds a whole lot like America, bro. No, we used to say senators right now,
Starting point is 01:18:25 but we could send a council as well. We're not faring so well though. And we haven't stood the test of time yet. We've done actually, we've done, I believe that we've done way better than most people want to give us credit for. Things could be, if the, if the constitution of the United States
Starting point is 01:18:42 wasn't as resilient and well thought out as it, as it is, we would not, we, we could very easily be in some whole other kind of mess. There's a, there's a lot of people that are like, oh, these things are bad and it's easy to pick out the things that are bad, but the United States is still the best place in the world to live. Yeah. And you know that phrase, democracy is the worst form of government until you try all the other ones. The reason I bring it up is because you're talking about Europeans wanting Trump to win. I think Trump represents the common man's sovereignty, whereas Kamala Harris, the Democratic Party, installing a candidate is like tyranny at its finest. It's like what the king would do, give you a governor general.
Starting point is 01:19:19 I'm going to move you away from this monarchy thing because it's people who are in Sweden and Norway and Switzerland like Germany like I get messages from all those people saying hi from this country like we need Trump people that don't live under a king people that don't live under a king you know I want to there's one more thing that I wanted to at least mention like I I understand I think I understand what you're saying why is your ire pointed at england when when england is not the most brutal monarchy on earth i mean you could you because it's not you could be you could be pointing to say saudi arabia which you know has people get their heads cut off for our friends now for being homosexual now or bhutan which is apparently the the if they have their currency is like happiness
Starting point is 01:20:04 it's but it's the king has decided this is what it's going to be in my kingdom. Apparently it's the happiest country on earth, but you better not violate the king's will in that country or you're not going to be very happy. Britain is reasonable. The people are reasonable and they're in a state of reasonability with that monarchy. We
Starting point is 01:20:19 could convert it into a corporation. They'd be the wealthiest corporation on earth, landowners, and then the family would still be super rich. I don't know that we, as Americans, can do any of that stuff. Wait, wait, wait. We should... Here's my plan.
Starting point is 01:20:36 We're sending Alex Stein to Antarctica and sending Ian to Great Britain, and he's going to convince the people, and that's going to be our superhero. I think it starts with Harry. Harry is the black sheep of the family. If anyone is going has really dedicated power you know i think if donald trump promised i think he did did donald trump say or it was just a joke that he was going to deport megan markle if he became president i think he would win i'm already voting for him i don't think i could only vote for the guy so many times so hard right i have a lot of respect
Starting point is 01:21:01 whatever their their family weird relationships i don't know but i have a lot of respect. Whatever their family, weird relationships, I don't know, but I have a lot of respect for Harry that's saying, you know what, power and wealth. You have a lot of respect for Harry, and he's married to Meghan Markle. I'm going to negative one all your kids.
Starting point is 01:21:13 He sold all his guns. He was a BA helicopter pilot, and he gave it all up to- Meghan Markle is the queen of his life. Yeah. Now he lives under the tyranny of Meghan Markle. You shouldn't be really that much. Now he lives under the tyranny of Meghan Markle.
Starting point is 01:21:25 Is it really that much better? He lives in the United States. California. California. So he's like, he's found that American republicanism is far superior to British monarchy. His wife said we're moving to England. He was the prince of England. He would have said you're staying here with me if you really wanted
Starting point is 01:21:42 to. That's what you do as a fucking prince. If you want. I just want to say, I to. That's what you do as a fucking prince. You want. I just want to say I really appreciate I just want to say I really do appreciate Ian's passion on the issue of the British monarchy despite just being some dude from the US who has no ties or
Starting point is 01:21:57 He doesn't know. You have no idea about your time. What about like your right to be sovereign? There's an opportunity for you in thailand because the opportunity there's been that well so this is like 10 years ago but they were massive protests against monarchy in form of a parliamentarian system and so you had the red shirts and the yellow shirts and they were fighting i don't want to fighting this is the thing i think britain is in a position to do it peacefully by transitioning their monarchy into
Starting point is 01:22:23 a corporation i think what ian's saying is I was born 250 years too late. I should have been born so I could fight England. No, I love every guy that I know from England. Every girl is phenomenal. They're not making laws. They're not doing anything. The king or queen doesn't get to do anything. Charles, as far as I know, is pretty tight with the World Economic Forum.
Starting point is 01:22:43 And that makes me very uncomfortable. Yeah, but that's just being rich and connected, but so is Alex Soros. It's what you're saying. They're not actually influencing the law. The thing that people are upset about in the UK is that they get a ton of money to live in big palaces and get dressed up all pretty. They're a net benefit because of tourism and stuff.
Starting point is 01:23:00 That's the thing. There's actually a big argument to be made. They generate revenue for the UK. 100%. That dude, Charles, is the king of Canada. He's the king of Australia. He's the king. There's actually... They generate revenue for the UK. That dude, Charles, is the king of Canada. He's the king of Australia. He's the king of New Zealand. In Canada, I could probably use it. He's an emperor.
Starting point is 01:23:13 He's a literal emperor. They rebranded in 1997. They were like, let's not call it the British Empire anymore. It's bad press. Let's call it the United Kingdom. Let's change the name. They try and talk like he's just the king. The United Kingdom is specifically Northern ireland you know scotland wales yeah they tried to get away from the king the british empire thing but it's the empire is the commonwealth the guy's an emperor are you cool
Starting point is 01:23:35 with having an emperor like british empire ended at i believe at the end it's one guy owning and controlling all you were talking about a parliamentary they literally have a parliament over there, bro, that they elect. You just asked me what's wrong with an emperor. It's one guy controlling everyone. But that's not what the UK is. What are you talking about?
Starting point is 01:23:53 It's the British Empire. They have a House of Commons. They do. And they can be replaced. The governor generals can replace the prime ministers at will. And at the pleasure of the king is what it says. Read the laws. Why not any other country?
Starting point is 01:24:04 Why only this one? It's Britain. It's Australia. It's England. It's Australia. It what it says. Read the laws. Why not any other country? Why only this one? It's Britain. It's Australia. It's England. It's Australia. It's New Zealand. It's Canada. I would love to be upset.
Starting point is 01:24:10 Mine is worse. I would love to, like Ian, be upset about something that's not an actual problem. You know what I mean? Like that's... Yet. That's why I'm talking about it now because it's not a...
Starting point is 01:24:20 Dude, you need more problems. I look far in the future. I would like to take the clip from this show, take that clip, and then make a cartoon where 10 years later, Britain reinvades the United States and conquers it.
Starting point is 01:24:32 Like, if your penis is over, if you're cool living under an emperor when it's chill, you're going to be screwed when it's not anymore. Don't I really strongly believe that it is not the situation that you believe it is. Well, I can see what it could become.
Starting point is 01:24:48 And we cannot live under imperial rule. I don't even know what we're arguing about anymore. We're not. We're talking about all good times. Guess what? I'm the captain now. I'm the captain now. And I'm moving us along.
Starting point is 01:25:00 I can't handle this. I cannot handle this conversation anymore. This has become ridiculous. Kamala Harris represents imperial strategy. She was placed in the... It's a white hat. How can you guys not care about Kamala not getting a primary? It's a white hat that says
Starting point is 01:25:15 make America great. I apologize. Light mega. Exactly. It's frustrating to be in the... Oh my god. Are you going to stop talking? If you do... Bro, we're trying to move on. Are you going to stop talking? If you do. Bro, we're trying to move on. You keep saying the same thing over and over again.
Starting point is 01:25:29 It's been 10 minutes. You just keep talking. Okay, so light MAGA. That's like the opposite of Elon's light MAGA. But you know what? I actually, I had the pleasure of meeting Antonio Brown at this Pittsburgh voter registration thing on Sunday and I was wearing my dark MAGA hat and
Starting point is 01:25:45 he took it. He took my hat. What did he do with it? He wore it. Did you call the police? No. Well, they wouldn't arrest him. But that was a bad joke, if anyone really got like the depth of that joke. But no, he wore it. And then he was in the box with Trump at the Steelers game wearing my hat, wearing this dark MAGA hat that was given to me by a friend. And so it wasn't really my hat, but like, you know, my hair had been in the hat. So like technically I was like almost in the box with Trump. Wow. Try not to be jealous.
Starting point is 01:26:15 But I did want to say something about that game, which is I was at that Steelers game for most of it. And they were not panning to Trump. They were not talking about him being there at all it was so different than the alabama game if you remember the the videos from that were the whole you know it was crazy and they kept shooting over to him there it was as if trump wasn't in the stadium which i mean pittsburgh is dark blue but there were a lot of maga hats in the crowd but there's something there i mean pittsburgh is not too far from here and it is, they got, they got it. There's a university up there and it's, that was funny. I saw some like flyer posted up near the university out there. I can't remember
Starting point is 01:26:52 which, I don't know what university is it? Pittsburgh. Yeah. And it was just like, it was like Charlie Kirk is a fascist or something written on it and he's coming. And I was like, this is so ridiculous. But a bunch of people I met were like, Hey, we're big fans, you know? Yeah. No, listen, I was wearing a MAGA hat and people i get compliments i get compliments in new york i was with a friend in the west village like the heart of manhattan last week wearing i was wearing my black maga hat with white writing he was wearing a boston red socks hat and he got all the hate all the f us to that boston hat and my maga hat got all the love well something is different look if you wear a boston hat in New York City, that's, I mean...
Starting point is 01:27:29 Yeah, but what does it mean that in 2020, I was living in New York in 2020, and I didn't wear the hat because I didn't want to be punched in the face. Because I was calculating, can I afford, do I want to go through dental surgery if someone punches me in the face because I'm wearing a MAGA hat. And now all you do is compliment. Yeah, it doesn't happen anymore. There was a period, but now people have basically chilled. And I think this is the... That's why we did the show last week where we're talking about Andrew Schultz when he said Trump's going to win a landslide. He didn't interview with him. Everyone was giving him the nod. And I'm like, that's the normie people down to earth. We're politicos.
Starting point is 01:28:04 We're trapped in this space. We watch the news all day. We know about to earth. We're politicos. We're trapped in this space. We watch the news all day. We know about Kamala. We know about Trump. Regular people who don't pay attention and don't want to pay attention, nodding to you, and you're a comedian, and you're like, I don't know nothing about this, but man, everyone loves Trump. That sounds like Trump's going to win.
Starting point is 01:28:17 Yep. Or at least Trump's won the argument. I don't know what the shadow campaign is going to be this time. You could be right. It doesn't mean you win. That's the hard thing. Democrats are going to be like, we found ballots on the moon.
Starting point is 01:28:27 They're coming back from the space station. Remember they were trapped up there? Yeah. And you know who brought them back from space? Elon Musk. Historically, the Democrats have had such a really good ground game, such a really good get out the vote. I don't know what whatever you want to call it, but they've been so good at getting
Starting point is 01:28:44 Ballot harvesting? Well, not, I well not i mean yes ballot harvesting but like the the the organizing that the left does is significantly better than the organizing that the right has done historically so there i'm always concerned with the ability of the republicans to get the votes out the way that they need to seeing the advanced talk the advanced numbers and stuff I saw, Mark Halperin was talking on his podcast that if things keep going the way that things are going, if there's no significant changes, that we'll know that Donald Trump will win on election day before any of the, you know, like right when voting starts, that if things continue this way, there won't be any way for the Democrats to come back,
Starting point is 01:29:26 which I would love to see clearly. But at the same time, because the Republicans, you know, have such a bad history with it, I'm always apprehensive. And I'm always, I say it on X all the time. You need to go vote. If you can go vote early, go vote early. I voted yesterday, Or was today Tuesday? I voted yesterday.
Starting point is 01:29:46 I was in New Hampshire in the morning. Cast my vote. Already done. Done deal. Go vote. If you can vote early, get it done. Get it out of the way. That's why it feels like there's a little bit of a false security going around.
Starting point is 01:30:00 Yeah. It's kind of a sigh up. Like, oh, he's got it in the bag. No, no. He can always lose. What if on November 4th, like, you know, Kamala's walking from a campaign event and then there's like a burning building with a bunch of kids screaming. She runs in and rescues like a bag full of puppies and like two small children.
Starting point is 01:30:16 And then her polls just jump 50%. She can't do anything simple well, right? Remember the whole photo op they had with her records? She was walking out of that record store and they're like, what do you have? And before they even asked her the question, she's like, and she's like already going to answer the question. And no, they can't do that with her. Yeah, because she knew what it was. Once you go outside, the press is going to ask you about your records. She's like, okay. No, now they're going to, they're like, we're going to take you to our record. Yeah. Because who has time when you're running for president to go buy records and it's like you know all it was staged it was oh it was staged yeah that's the same all these campaign events are the same thing it's like tim walsh with his gun oh that was so
Starting point is 01:30:54 painful i i don't i i agree it's fine to say that she's bad at it i don't care that she goes to the record store she's just like she's awkward and just she doesn't have to get doritos handed to her she got extra doritos because they kept throwing Doritos at her. Extra Doritos, yeah. They were all trying to throw Doritos at her. I mean, for real, that's what happened. I feel like she must kind of part of her wants to lose at this point. She's probably exhausted. I agree. I think, I think. She doesn't want the smoke.
Starting point is 01:31:16 I don't think she ever wanted to be president. Yeah, that's why Michelle Obama was smart because I was very worried that they were going to be able to convince her to run because she probably would have won. Hilldog wanted it so bad. And she's so mad it's not her. But Kamala doesn't even, she doesn't really want to win. I don't think so.
Starting point is 01:31:32 She could take it or leave it. I think she's just like, why am I here? Yeah. You know, that's why she can't really answer questions. Oh man, that Fox interview when Brett Baer was just like, you know, 70% of people say the country's on the wrong track. Why is that? She's like, well, Donald Trump is running. And he's like, what?
Starting point is 01:31:50 She's like, you know what I mean. And he's like, no, I don't. He's like, I have no idea. I have no idea. She went back to what she was used to, which is the people that are doing the interview will bail her out. And she was hoping that Brett Baer was going to do that as well. And thankfully, he's know a shill the way that that uh you know abc and nbc and cbs and everyone
Starting point is 01:32:12 else has kind of been for um but you saw that was that's really what was on display she kind of was floundering and she was like well i don't really have an answer so i'm just going to go ahead and be like hey throw me a lifeline and bre Brett Baer's like, sorry, sister, you're on your own. Indeed. No one's saying anything. I was debating if I can make a joke, but it wasn't very family friendly about the kind of job she used to do to get this job. We can say that for the members only show show, where we will enjoy gentle musings about Kamala Harris's sordid past.
Starting point is 01:32:49 You definitely don't want to miss that. Gentle. We're going to go to Super Chats.

Starting point is 01:33:08 And it's really cool to see everybody in the discord. Uh, they do shows there. They have their own shows. They have their own projects. People are teaming up. Community is one of the most important things. The founding fathers would go to pubs and they'd sit down and they hang out and they'd be like, we want independence. And they'd be like, you're right. If they weren't able to actually come together, share their ideas, we'd never have a country. And that's why the First Amendment protects the right to peaceably assemble. It wasn't always about anti, like, you know, people like to say Antifa running through the street and smashing things. It's a First Amendment, man. We can protest. Peaceably assemble. They were saying if we the people get
Starting point is 01:33:37 together to discuss grievances against the crown or the government, you can't stop us. We can speak. We can meet. Well, the government has been infringing, but we are pushing back. So we've got this Discord server where you can hang out with a bunch of people. That's step one.

Starting point is 01:34:08 Let's go. All right. So there have been so many super chats that YouTube has begun deleting many of them. So we'll just try and read what we can. We've got Michael Cooper who says, snobs like Patrick Bat David love to crap on West Virginians.
Starting point is 01:34:21 God forbid that someone wants to invest in somewhere that isn't Austin or Miami. Did he crap on West Virginia? I didn't hear anything about that. That's a drag. Yeah, I don't know what you're talking about, brother. I'm not sure. The unlubricated salmon
Starting point is 01:34:35 says, congrats on both the wedding and the kiddo. I've been hoping this day would come for a few years now, and I am stoked. Consider this a little something to help get some baby clothes. Thank you very much. I really do appreciate it. Got a bunch of texts, as it were, from all the big fans and friends of the show. Congratulations. Really do appreciate
Starting point is 01:34:52 the support. All right. Gwad looks as Tim, if I remove the cover of my pillow, is the adjustable fill all that remains? Wow, that was well said. Fun. The adjustable fill of the MyPillow.
Starting point is 01:35:07 I'm thinking about a Phil Labonte body pillow. Oh, don't think about that. You think that's hot? That's hot-ish. Maybe there's a market for this. You want to market a Phil Labonte MyPillow body pillow? I will not. Like the anime version of you.
Starting point is 01:35:28 Big hands. Devin Porter says, Tim, congrats on the family. I'm your age, but I feel I've missed my opportunity. In other news, I think Casper would have an easier launch in airports. I'm a millwork draftsman and I've produced many coffee shops in airports. Have you considered it? I mean, that'd be absolutely fantastic. I would also say, I don't think you've missed your opportunity. Sounds like you're, you know, interested and you should. But that's another big consideration for us. You know, we've wanted to do this for a long time, but we run a company. I mean, we're working all the time, both of us. And so we are trying to figure out how to make time to be able to have a family. And we decided we're just going to not have the time and just force it.
Starting point is 01:36:07 Everybody that I hear talking about kids, they're like, look, there's never a right time. You never have, like people make all kinds of excuses. But real quick, I'm not saying that we are waiting for the right time. We wanted to want to do this a while ago. The issue was there was no time because we're working 16 hour days running a company. And so, you know, I've been talking about it's, it's, it's a, um, spiritual suicide in my opinion, to not have a family. And, you know, so I certainly think we were, we, we had to figure out what we're going to do, but I think,
Starting point is 01:36:36 I think we're, we're looking at some options and I think we scaling back a bit is, is, is one thing that's going to help make it all possible, but that means we'll still be able to do the morning show and TimCast IRL still. And then we're pursuing strategic investment. And then basically making the company move to the next level. We've got some
Starting point is 01:36:57 good moves coming. We'll see what happens. Alright. Let's go. Dad's Cigarette Run says, so are we just not going to talk about phil's shirt are we gonna talk about phil's shirt it's sick what is it i just said this the other day i was so jealous of your shirt all saints it's it's just a striped shirt and people people uh apparently have opinions on it i think i mean it looks great i know if you don't think it looks great you have bad taste i'm confident in in how sick my shirt is and i don't know if you like't think it looks great, you have bad taste. I'm confident in, in how sick my shirt is.
Starting point is 01:37:25 And I don't care if you like it or not. Adam Smith said, if Macca's dropped gluten-free keto buns, they would do well. Love me a quarter pounder, but don't need the carbs. I agree. I completely agree.
Starting point is 01:37:37 If they, if the problem with a lot of the, the look, you'd have to do an almond bun. Cause here's what you do. You take almond flour, you put an egg in it. You put it in the microwave.
Starting point is 01:37:47 And it turns into a light biscuit. And you can make sandwiches with it. It's pretty good. That's keto. It's good. It's got fiber. It's got vitamins. Almond's real good for you.
Starting point is 01:37:56 I wouldn't want to do any of that psyllium husk or whatever it is. The weird things they do for keto bread. I'm not interested in whatever that is. Rice flour is okay. No, rice flour is massively carb. Maybe McDonald's can just be normal. Why don't we just keep McDonald's McDonald's and
Starting point is 01:38:11 make America great again. Here's what I'll do. I'll go to McDonald's because I actually want to do this. And I'll get a couple burgers, but then I'll throw the buns away and I'll make almond buns for myself and no one has to worry about anything. Yeah, I toss the buns. It's kind of a waste.
Starting point is 01:38:27 But you get, you know, you get a ramekin, you put the almond flour and the egg in it, you put in the microwave and it fluffs up and then you cut it and I make, you know, egg sandwiches and bacon. But bread is the killer in this country. I do think RFK being a part of a Trump admin is really exciting. And this is actually how I think maybe we get some of the girlies to vote for Trump. Because if you could, all these like celiac girls in this country, if they were told that they could have pasta and bread the way that you can when you go to Italy. Vote Trump.
Starting point is 01:38:51 Vote Trump. Oh, I heard him talking about. Vote Trump if your tummy aches, ladies. That's a lot of that gluten intolerance is coming from, according to him, Roundup, which they'll spray on crops, which is Monsanto's glyphosate. It's a herbicide. And then they'll use it as a desiccant before they harvest to dry all that stuff out. It's just... Yo, this super chat here got Ian good. Look at this mystical goat. He got you, Ian.
Starting point is 01:39:14 He says, Ian puts graphene in coffee. Not true, mystical goat. It's not true. Never, never have I done that. We went back to the studio yesterday because this one wasn't working and there's little mushrooms all over where you used to sit. Yeah, they're still there. Yeah, yesterday.
Starting point is 01:39:28 Thank you for having me on as the first guest of the canceled podcast. Yeah, that's what it is. Tim Kess canceled. I didn't know if I was showing up to the, you know, West Virginia just and nothing was going to be here. Took a risk. All right. Trey Wubel says some rich guy had high cholesterol and blamed McDonald's
Starting point is 01:39:45 because they used tallow for their fries. He sued until they changed oils. Demons exist. Whoa. That doesn't sound real. I heard Outback does tallow. Is that true? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:39:56 Heard that? I like Outback. Yeah? Those big onions are great. But, you know, I don't want the carbs anyway, so. And I have not even eaten that at all. I can't. at home i just i can i just eat wings it's like the only thing you can't do wings at home wings out are really good yeah i haven't eaten anything today
Starting point is 01:40:14 today i had uh for breakfast every day i have two egg omelet with goat cheese and avocado and a protein shake and that's all you had today all i had today wow yeah i need to eat something you know well was just work. Is there anything else in your body? It says Outback uses pure beef tallow. Outback does? Yeah. Ladies and gentlemen, Outback is based. And butter. You know what really, really makes me
Starting point is 01:40:35 angry? Every single breakfast place you go to, they don't use real butter. They spray the grill with that nasty spray. Martinsburg Family Diner out here has real butter. I doubt they use real butter. They spray the grill with that nasty spray. There's a Martinsburg family diner out here has real butter. I doubt they use real butter on the grill. I don't know. But they give you real butter for your food. And I'm like, that's it. I'm not going anywhere else.
Starting point is 01:40:54 And I hate to be a dick. There's some really nice little diners run by some little families out here in West Virginia. And they hand you butter and it's soy hydrogenated salt garbage. And I'm like, I'm not eating that. It's not food. That's why everyone has low T and everyone's infertile. That's why.
Starting point is 01:41:09 No hydrogen into us. I want whipped butter. Whipped butter. Butter is awesome. You gotta butter your bacon. Heavy cream and you just put it in a mixer in a bowl. Keto. Butter the bacon? Butter the bacon. Butter and bacon? You just gotta butter your bacon. Dude, it's nice to eat just a piece of butter every once in a while.
Starting point is 01:41:26 If you're not getting it in your diet, it is so good for you. That is a little too much for me. Cut off a little chunk. People need to understand keto is high fat. And I say it a lot because a lot of people are like, I'm doing keto. I'm going to order the steak. And I'm like, okay, well, you need fat. So you need like sour cream, avocado, heavy cream, something.
Starting point is 01:41:44 Otherwise, you're not doing keto. Baste your steak with butter. That's a given. Herb butter. You get a filet mignon. You fill a mignon with herb butter. We speak like regular people on this show. We're not French.
Starting point is 01:41:56 Filet mignon. Let's go. All right. Hitman says, boo, liberal Ian being a liberal. Boo, he hates fun i definitely don't hate fun i'm almost obsessed with it did i start a trend we're gonna boo ian now no i feel bad don't feel badly do you remember that whole conversation we had before yeah now that you remind me it's not so bad all right yofet says tim and crew tulsi gabbage
Starting point is 01:42:22 announced she is joining the republican party at the Trump rally in North Carolina. He did here. That is based. We need we need we need good Republicans. The Democrats are bad. The Republicans are almost entirely bad. But there's a handful of good Republicans. So the more the better.
Starting point is 01:42:36 More the better. That's great, too, because I'm Tulsi's moderate, you know. And so she's shifting in the right direction in terms of like guns and energy. I respect that. All right. Rock and Roll says, first time Super Chad, but longtime fan. Maybe part of the solution to ease your burden
Starting point is 01:42:52 is to, well, we're going to, yeah, we could have, we have Phil here. So the goal for Phil was to have him be able to pick up shows when I'm not, uh, able to do it. What if it came down to the point where the only guy in the studio is Phil and he's like, I am all that remains. That joke is so played out,
Starting point is 01:43:12 but that'd be hilarious. You know, I'm not going to beat up anybody about it. I'm not going to give anyone crap about it, but. Tryin54 says, congratulations, Alison.
Starting point is 01:43:20 It's about time, Tim. Will there be baby hair products on the register? Also, has Alison authorized a beanie for the altar? I don't believe so. And I don't know about baby hair products or whatever, but people are putting hashtag beanie baby.
Starting point is 01:43:33 Aw. That is a trademark. That's really cute. You're probably going to get about a million little beanies for a gift. Baby beanies. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, but don't squeeze that guy's head.
Starting point is 01:43:47 Let him let his brain grow. Okay. Or girl, I don't know. Yeah. It is a girl. Oh, cool. Yeah. James Marshall says,
Starting point is 01:43:55 first time Super Chat, just want to say thanks for the amazing show and congrats. I'll support Timcast no matter how it airs. Thank you again. Well, I appreciate you guys. I appreciate the support over here. Basically, every single Super Chat is just basically saying the same thing, so I don't know if I want to, you know, I appreciate you guys. I appreciate the support over here. Basically, every single Super Chat
Starting point is 01:44:06 is just basically saying the same thing, so I don't know if I want to... I appreciate all the Super Chats and support. Let's see. Let's try and find a Super Chat. Barrett says, this is for Phil and a nod to Mary and PCC.
Starting point is 01:44:22 I still have custom leather jackets I want to give you. I'm exceptionally glad to see Mary, Em, and Phil. What is this? Leather jackets? Custom leather jackets. Oh, sweet. There's no P.O. box, so I don't know. I might get a P.O. box. I was thinking about spinning one up.
Starting point is 01:44:37 You're going to start the P.O. box? If I could get a P.O. box. I got a message about some sweet band t-shirts with you guys. You in it, me in it. They want to send it somewhere, too. We should set up something, even if it's an independent box. Send me a DM on the old X and I'll get you the PO box.
Starting point is 01:44:54 Nice. Space Panda, the only whale of a conspiracy there is is where Seamus is hiding all of your spoons. Where is Seamus hiding in general? I want to know. He's gone. Did he leave town?
Starting point is 01:45:06 He's gone. He skipped this shit. He's coming back. Good. He will be back soon. Coghlan. And he will then make jokes. You know, I just want to say Seamus is very funny.
Starting point is 01:45:19 We were hanging out here over the weekend and we watched this really awful movie. And then Seamus, he's like, the whole time we're watching it Seamus is making jokes and then I would say like Seamus would make 90% of he would make a joke and contribute 90% of the fun and laughter I'd throw in about 10% on top I'm just trying to say like me and him are riffing but it's all him basically as soon as he's like okay we're gonna get out of here we put another movie that was actually good but we were bored. Because when Seamus was sitting there, it was like Mystery Science Theater 3000 or whatever. Seamus is hilarious.
Starting point is 01:45:51 Where he was just mocking the film, and so it made this terrible film hilarious to watch. And I was like, dude, we got to do like a film companion podcast with Seamus Coughlin. Where we just like, hey, everybody, we're going to watch this movie. Press play now. And then you watch the movie, and then you're listening to Seamus make jokes dude I I it I gotta say shout out to Seamus because it was it was painful it hurt we were laughing so hard and it was like this movie was just really bad I don't want to say what movie it is I feel bad for the people who made it okay yeah But it was really long.
Starting point is 01:46:25 It was like two hours and it was awful. And it's new and it's on Amazon or whatever. No, put it on blast. I want to know now. Oh, now I got to know. I don't want to put them on blast. It's a meme. You know, because then I'm going to-
Starting point is 01:46:35 They're good people. I don't know. They're trying their best. You know what I mean? Is it just like a generic movie? Yeah, kind of. And it was like the plot made no sense and it was all over the place. And I feel bad because
Starting point is 01:46:45 these people made a movie and they were probably really proud of it and they're probably really excited to be in it and it's on Amazon. But you know, before the show, we were talking about how America needs more bullying and we need to bring bullying back. Good bullying. If I could snap, I would snap. Yeah, but we need to bring bullying back.
Starting point is 01:47:01 You can't snap your fingers? I can't. I can snap with my left hand, but not with my right. Not effectively. I don't know. See, that is good bullying. Your middle finger. Middle finger. No.
Starting point is 01:47:12 But that's good bullying, right? But America's filled with all these low-T soy beta guys and jihadi genes because no one ever bullied them. Okay, the movie was called For Sale. Never heard of it. It's about a guy who's like he's a car salesman and he rips a bill off and then he gets
Starting point is 01:47:30 fired because he rips off the government. So then he tries to sell a house but the house is haunted and it's just like the haunting takes place during the day and we're like, what? This is weird. It can't be spooky if it's too late. And then for no reason he brings this woman as a psychic in and then he just kills her for no reason. And then he's like, oh, no, what have I done?
Starting point is 01:47:47 Don't spoil it now, because a lot of people are going to go watch it, and you actually might have done them a favor. For sale. Check it out. But think about it. This is like, if you didn't say this, it would be like the participation trophy equivalent of movies, you know? Like, we need standards in this country. No, but I'll tell you this. The movie is the best movie I've ever seen.
Starting point is 01:48:05 So long as Seamus is his comment. Like if they did a Seamus commentary cut where like the volumes turned down and you're listening to Seamus talk about it, then it's the best movie ever. Yeah. Because then you're just like laughing the whole time. It's a comedy. That's the way to do it. Seamus has got to make that channel. Come on, Seamus.
Starting point is 01:48:22 He's got to make that channel. We have to bring bullying back to America. Mystery Seamus Theater 3000. Yeah. Yeah, it'd be good. Blake says, Tim, thanks for staying in the fight and keeping IRL alive. You're the guy I watch for most of my politics, and I really enjoy your opinions. Keep up the fight.
Starting point is 01:48:36 Well, don't forget, there's also YouTube.com slash TimCastNews, which is the morning show. I put up six clips per day, and I'm just monologuing on that one. Let's go. Russian Kaluder says, Ian, please don't stare at the sun. Look into red light therapy instead. It slows macular degeneration. It also helps heal wounds.
Starting point is 01:48:57 Yes, long live the king. Long live the king. What are you talking about? Yeah, red light therapy. Different than radiation therapy. It's just actual literal red light. I used to live in a room with a red light on 24-7 in Los Angeles. Are you a lizard?
Starting point is 01:49:12 What? I don't think so. It sounds like a terrarium. It was wild. It could change the colors, but I chose red. Ham sandwiches. Sungazing is ancient. Kings are ancient.
Starting point is 01:49:20 Ian needs to pick a lane. Wait a minute. That's called a fallacy. Rain says, send Ian to the podcast of the Lotus Eaters. Yes. I would love to go out there. Yeah, we should. Would they have you on, you think? I'm sure. Do they do guests? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:49:36 Carl's a good friend. We're big fans of the Lotus Eaters. I do think it'd be really interesting to have you. Oh, I would love to fly. I've never really spent time in England. I don't think I've ever actually been to England. I've been to Ireland. He's going to show up and the king's going to be waiting at the airport. It'd be great. He's like, we're glad you've
Starting point is 01:49:52 come. Follow me. And he's got two guards next to him. I'm like, I don't know. What choice do I have? He's going to be like, this is how everyone in Britain lives. And he's going to take them on this amazing luxury vacation and be like, when you're a subject to the king, you have everything. You're free to do as you please. Oh, thank you for telling me that. Thank you for authorizing my ability to be free.
Starting point is 01:50:09 Luke Schmidt says, Ian is 100% correct about the sun. Getting natural light into your eyes first thing when the sunrise is vital to your being. You obviously don't look directly into the sun. Do more research. Yeah, you don't ever want to focus your eyes on the sun because it can burn your retinas. But gazing towards the sun is like an ancient practice. It actually feels really good if you're doing it right. I once went outside and it was raining and Ian was looking straight up with his mouth open and his mouth filled with water.
Starting point is 01:50:33 That might have been. No, not that part. That wasn't true. I was gazing at the sun today. But I'll do it with my eyes closed a lot of times. You can still get a lot of the benefits. Right. But I've heard you're not supposed to wear sunglasses when you're in the sun
Starting point is 01:50:45 because it's your eyes tell your brain that you're in the sun. And so I've been trying not to do my sunglasses. I've stopped with it. Yeah. I stopped. I basically don't, unless I'm driving and like really, really can a lot of times I'll go out and it'll be like,
Starting point is 01:50:56 Oh, the sun's so bright, the sun's so bright. But if I just point my head towards it for a little bit, I'll sneeze a couple of times and then it's not so bright and I can get, I just live normal outside. David Ray says, You'd better have a good guest for my birthday on Thursday.
Starting point is 01:51:11 Oh, you know, I don't think I have the guest list pulled up. Who's on Thursday? Danny Palaszczuk? That's a good guest. It's going to be very funny. And then Ryan's next week, I think. Wow, David Ray, no commentary on the current guest. Just thinking about Thursday.
Starting point is 01:51:24 Thanks a lot. Well, it's not his birthday think. Wow, David Ray, no commentary on the current guest. Just thinking about Thursday. Thanks a lot. Well, it's not his birthday today. He didn't say, thank you for getting a good guest. Not on my birthday. Right? Oy. You asked for it. Tiffany Nichols says, babies sleep at 7pm. You don't have a choice.
Starting point is 01:51:41 They follow the sun. The pod starts at 8pm. Cancel your morning show instead and spend the days with the baby. Or we'll do both and just make it work. We'll figure it out. We will figure it out. That's what you gotta do. You gotta do it. Dude, the baby's gonna learn all about politics.
Starting point is 01:51:58 Oh, the baby's gonna be like a chess-playing ninja wizard. Yeah, teach kids the chess. I've been watching a lot of chess masters. They start learning really young. You know what I realized? Allison and I were talking about this. Poker actually is a really great game for kids.
Starting point is 01:52:11 It is. It is. It's teaching basic numbers. Yeah. That's all real. It's like, my three beats your two. I win. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 01:52:19 My brother had a poker ring in kindergarten. Really? Well, yeah, but he actually got the kids bringing in real money. Oh, wow. So, yeah. And then they told him they could play with fake money, so he folded the game, because he was like, what's the point?
Starting point is 01:52:31 Ooh. Well, I agree. What's the point, you know? Trying to play a game of poker with some babies and win some money over here, huh? It's like Rugrats. Great show, by the way. Great show.
Starting point is 01:52:41 All right. Jeremy Love says, Ian is 100% right from someone that lives it. The governor general can remove the prime minister if wanted. Look at Canada right now. The governor general
Starting point is 01:52:51 is wielding power. The governor general is the royal's hand in government. Yeah, the governor general is appointed by the king at the king's pleasure and can be taken away
Starting point is 01:52:59 at the king's pleasure. So he's basically the king's dirty man, the guy that goes in and does the dirty work for the king. So the king's like, I didn't do it. I really wish you hadn't chosen that comment.
Starting point is 01:53:09 He had to give me one. Francis Castillo says, congratulations on the baby. Been an avid viewer from the Philippines since 2019. You guys keep me updated in U.S. politics and culture as everything happening there is there, good or bad, seems to affect us. Thanks, Tim, cast and crew. Really do appreciate it. And guest. You're welcome.
Starting point is 01:53:31 Alright. I feel like you own a shirt that just says me. Olvin McGoth says McGag? Make America Goth again? But that's still MAGA. It's still MAGA. It's still MAGA. Make America Goth again is still MA's still MAGA. It's still MAGA.
Starting point is 01:53:47 It's still MAGA. Make America Goth again is still MAGA. Is it MAGA or MAGA? I'm talking about you. MAGA? No. Is it MANA or MANA? Well, I used to call it MANA. And then they were like, no, it's MANA, Ian. Secret of MANA. It's not secret of MANA.
Starting point is 01:53:58 What are we talking about? In Magic, the card game they were playing earlier, you tap cards for MANA. It doesn't need to be magic. It's MANA. It's MANA from heaven. That game you were playing earlier, you tap cards for mana. It doesn't need to be magic. It's mana. Mana? It's mana from heaven. That game you were playing when I walked in. Maybe it's a mix, like mana, mana, or something like that.
Starting point is 01:54:12 Mana? Yeah. I always said mana. Mana. Everyone I knew said mana. Mana. Mana is a term in any kind of spiritual or magical reference that basically means energy. That's what we called it in the beginning, was mana.
Starting point is 01:54:24 Like magic power. Someone came along and was like, no, it's mana. And I was like, I don't know. It comes from mana. I call it a cat. So that's why I say Maga. I'm from Northern Ohio. You say Maga?
Starting point is 01:54:31 Because. Well, not Maga. Yeah, and then everyone's like, Tim, you're wrong. It's Maga. Maga. It's definitely less calm, but I think it depends on where you're from. I've heard people say it both ways. Raymond G. Stanley Jr. says, Tim, did you actually skate in Trump's golden shoes?
Starting point is 01:54:45 The video was on X. Not AI. Just like all your other skating videos. Yeah, it was... He walked by earlier. He was like, Ian, how's it going? Look at this. This was five kickflips.
Starting point is 01:54:57 Oh, wow. And five kickflips and the gold... After one kickflip, the gold was gone. Oh, snap. The laces are made of foam rubber. So they're gold was gone. The laces are made of foam rubber. So they're shredding instantly. The laces are made of foam rubber. It's crazy.
Starting point is 01:55:08 Look at those shoes. Trump is so gangster. Like, look at that shoe. So we're going to have, so I did a couple of kickflips, which is this. And then I did a nollie hard flip. We posted a nollie hard flip. We're going to have a couple of pro skateboarders do some tricks on them tomorrow. And then I'm going to ask them to sign the shoes.
Starting point is 01:55:25 And then we're going to. Oh, cool. Yeah. So it's like you may think it is disrespectful to scuff the shoes with skateboarding. No, no. We're going to do a handful of tricks so that they are marked by these legends of skateboarding and then have their signatures on it. And they'll be even better.
Starting point is 01:55:39 Oh, yeah. These are actually really good. It's crazy. So I thought they were going to be like pretty bad. And I'm like, you know, you're going to get them. You're going to put them on. You're going to be like, yeah, you know, it's like you're not supposed to wear them. And they slide on like butter.
Starting point is 01:55:54 They're very comfortable. And look, I skate a lot. You got to break shoes in, you know, skating in a brand new pair of shoes. They can be too grippy that, you know, you got to, you got to move a little bit. These were perfect. Perfect. I put them on for the first time and I was like, wow, they're actually really good. MAGA movement glow up.
Starting point is 01:56:12 Like remember the original MAGA hats, how funky they look. They look like, like those little, they look, they were very floppy and large and they look like clown hats. They were really silly. And, uh, and now the current, like you, you forget what they looked like. It was the thinner font. It was smaller, thinner hat, like very wide, almost like there should be a, one of those spinny things on top. It looked really silly. And now the hats are good. The shoes are good. Yeah. And, uh, so, you know, I think it's, it's, we're trying to make something that's, uh, more than just the Trump sneaker. I like Make America Great Ian Crossland,
Starting point is 01:56:46 which is magic. I'm going to pitch Trump. That's actually, that is magic. You should make a hat. Magic. Make America Great Ian Crossland. I'll sell those on my website. Get ready. Merch coming. Magic. Indeed. All right.
Starting point is 01:57:02 We'll grab a couple more here. Joshua Sabedra says says long time viewer first time chat thanks for committing to spread the truth my in-laws are currently fighting an amber herd style divorce and custody battle for their four grandkids he's a victim of believe all women oh that's terrible that is sad 101 scooby says i'll vote for Beanie Baby in 2060 yes indeed first female president then if that's the case one more we'll grab one more Brepzak
