So with only three days left until election day, the lunatic left has decided that they're going to go all in on slander of Donald Trump. In some comments that Donald Trump made when he was talking to Tucker Carlson, he was criticizing Liz Cheney's Warhawk positions, and they have managed to spin it along the lines of the old bloodbath comment or the very fine people hoax. We're going to talk a little bit about Arizona's Attorney General has decided that these comments are worth looking into, which is more of the ridiculousness that we've come to expect from the left. Also, the jobs number from October has been edited or revised from over from 100,000 all the way down to 12,000, which has become standard. I think I don't know the last time they actually had an accurate jobs number or a jobs number that was revised up. It's

always this big number and it always gets revised down. So that's kind of become the normal thing. And we're going to talk a little bit about some social media manipulation over on Reddit. Talk a little bit about Boeing slashing their DEI department. We are also sponsored tonight by Cast Brew Coffee. You guys know Cast Brew is the best coffee going.

We went for three hours. It was fun. It was fun. And there was some fireworks. Also, if you're listening to us on Apple or Spotify, please give us a really good review. It really does help.

And let's get started. B-team, speak for yourselves. I'm a double D. From CNN. Trump says Warhawk Liz Cheney should be, I don't know if I want to say that, an escalation of

violent rhetoric against his opponents. Donald Trump has said former Rep Liz Cheney is a Warhawk who should be... Look, I wasn't calling her a Warhawk, I was calling her a warthog. As he raged against

one of the most prominent intraparty critics while campaigning Thursday night in Arizona. She's a radical war hawk. Let's put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, okay? That's what Trump said. That is not from us. The former president said at a campaign event in Glendale with

former Fox News host Tucker Carlson. Let's see how she feels about it. You know, when the guns are trained on her face. Good Lord. It's typical of the left to spin the things that Donald Trump says. Like I said in the in the intro, this is very reminiscent of the very fine people's hoax. Very fine people hoax reminiscent of the bloodbath comment. Yeah. What is he going to do? Just like we were talking before, be on defense all the time? He can't live his life just constantly worried of how everything he says is going to be taken

out of context. He can't, because that's going to be really stifling for him. He'll still find a way anyways. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. He's always shooting from the hip. At this point, after this many years, you know who Donald Trump is. No, I don't.

Actually, I don't think that's true. So one of the things that I found most interesting, I don't know who he is. No, no. So one of the things that I found most interesting was what we're in right now is a lot of people who dislike him don't actually like to consume. They like to read the headlines. They don't like to read the articles and they definitely don't watch his speeches beyond sound clips. So a lot of people who did take the through since 2016, it really is because poor framing and people not willing to look into it.

It's one giant misunderstanding, and we are all suffering because of it. How much do you think it's actually poor framing, though? Like, I understand that he does talk... It's evil framing from media, not poor. Well, I was thinking more of Donald Trump's actual phrasing, right? So he could, like you were saying, he could really

be walking on eggshells all the time and be very, very, very careful. That would be very out of character for Donald Trump. Do you think that if he were more careful, there would be more charitable takes from the left? Because it's not my sense that that would happen. I think that they would still be looking for any way that they can attack him because we've heard you know donald trump is bad but if donald trump dies jd vance is worse jd vance is already like mega hitler just in case they've already started to to plant the seed for that so do you guys get the same sense or no it'll be just as bad it was the same way when ron desantis was considered a real contender for him right the media went into overdrive working to frame him

in the same way oh yeah look at him he's wearing high heels he's wearing high-heeled cowboy that actually was funny yeah i mean the whole situation's ridiculous and this is something they've been doing non-stop since 2015 every time the man says anything, they try to interpret it in the worst possible way. This goes back to long before Trump as well. It's just that Trump speaks in a bit more of a bombastic way than most Republican politicians, so there's more for them to try to pick from and twist. So with Romney, when he was basically begging

the left-wing mob to accept him, I have binders full of women applying for these jobs. What he's basically doing is giving a sense to their narrative. Yes, we should prioritize this DEI initiative of making sure women are given priority in the workplace when we hire them over men. And they made fun of him for that because he said it in a clumsy way. And they tried to make him out to be a sexist over it. So look, there's no way Trump can avoid being taken out of context at this point.

And what they're doing here is really egregious. Ultimately, it's on them. I don't think there's anything he can do to stop it. I really don't. No, once you put him on defense, he then actually loses support from his own side because one of the reasons so many people like him is because he does unabashedly go against what they're saying without fault. Right. So if you turn that on its head and he becomes a completely different person, he not only loses support from his own side, the media is not going to frame it any better.

Nobody on the left is going to suddenly accept him. That's never going to happen. He is on his only path forward. The problem is it only gets worse from here because the media is never going to change. Yeah, it's my that's kind of my sense as well, especially like Sheamus made a really, really good point. The the most milquetoast of Republicans, the most vanilla, least offensive Republican that you could possibly come up with. Mitt Romney, you know, he said the binders full of women comment. And that was spun to be a sexist, terrible thing. And I think there was something about his dog that happened, too. Oh, he had a dog. Well, so he had a dog named Seamus.

Was it really? Yes. Ever, dude. I'm so glad that I brought that up. When your name is Seamus, people, you'll be like, hey, my name's Seamus. They'll be like, oh, I had a dog named Seamus. It is such a common dog name. They're like, I had a dog named Seamus.

I'm like, great. Cool. Imagine being named Max. I'm sure everybody knows that. Oh, dude. Max. Or Fido. Yes, all of the men named Fido.

Don't name your kid Rex. It's going to be awful for him. But yeah, there was somebody like his family put the dog on the roof. I don't know. But leftists will post clips. Not leftists, actually, to be fair, more shit libs. But they'll post clips of the 2012 election cycle and the 2008 election cycle and you know they'll try to juxtapose how kind and really in many ways like acquiescent um

mccain and romney were to obama as their opponent but then they never followed up with like maybe we should be introspective about the way we treated those men like they were very very kind we still called them nazis we still said they were horrible people like we still claimed they were going to destroy america they claimed that mitt romney like fired a woman and it was personally responsible for her dying of cancer or something like that there was just so much nonsense cancer yeah exactly there there was so much like horrific attacking of of romney who i don't like. But then you just go, OK, so they're just going to keep attacking Trump.

There's never going to be any introspection. And then the next, like when Vance comes along, if he becomes president, it's going to be he's even worse than Trump was. And Trump was a civil Republican and blah, blah, blah. What is Mitt short for? Mittens? Mittens. Actually Mittens. Mittens Romney? I mean, it's a cat name. I mean, but I can't.

I mean, I don't know how you end up with that name as a man. As a politician, who did he represent? Mitt Romney? Utah. He's from Massachusetts, right? He was from Massachusetts. He was Mormon, though. He was the governor of Massachusetts,

and then he was the senator from Massachusetts. He was Mormon, though. He was the governor of Massachusetts, and then he was the senator from Utah. It does somehow have that type of good old boy type name to it. No, Mitt. Oh, Mitt, okay. Mitt itself. It's catchy, and you remember it. Fair enough. How many Mitts are there?

I still feel like Mittens is a loser. I actually kind of want to know what his, like what Mitchell. Great cat name. It's probably short for Mitchell. So is Liz Cheney just a full-blown Democrat at this point? Because I feel like this is kind of. Aren't they all? It's a unit party.

I'll trade Tulsi for Liz any day. His name's Willard. Willard? His name is Willard Mitt. Mitt's the middle name. Mitt is. I didn't know that. The name is literally Willard.

So he wouldn't go by Will Romney. He's like Mitt will stick better in people's brains. Yeah. But to your point earlier look there's mon like they put together these photo montages now of all of the rallies where they've called every republican a nazi for the last however many decades you're not going to get away from it so acquiescing to whatever they want whether it's their feigning of civility we all understand that that does not matter because they do not care about hypocrisy. They will absolutely do all of the things that you claim that they

claim that you are doing and they will win because the media will frame the narrative and whoever frames the narrative for the largest group of people, meaning those who are following mainstream media, whether it's on social media or the few people who are left watching terrestrial television, you cannot get away from that. And it's almost impossible to reframe a person's position. Right now, it's impossible to reframe Donald Trump as a good person to people who otherwise thought differently of him. The best thing you can do would be to focus on the economy and what he can do for the economy and campaign against the fact that Kamala's track record doesn't work within the White House right now.

But most people just don't want to have that discussion. I'm sick of the Nazi comments, too, but I think come hell or high water, I support him. Well, it's really, it is something to be sick of. I mean, great pun, by the way. I don't want to just skip over that. But the reality is this has been going on for longer than we even realized i was doing a podcast the other day the loop cast with uh catholic votes the loop and what it's called the loop no no it's like it's a p diddy podcast loop um like keeping people in the loop all right but they um what they pointed out was

that literally all the way back to eisen, like there are people on record calling Dwight Eisenhower a Nazi. I mean, this is back all the way back in the 50s, all the way back in the 1950s. This is not a new thing. from what I assume are conservatives talking about how to how the communists were going to attack regular Americans. And they they've been saying, call them Nazis. They've been saying, call them fascists. That's been the playbook of the far left, which they the actual communists that has been their playbook for the entire time that there has been, you know, ever since post-World War II, right? So at the end of World War II, that was the modus operandi of the far left, and it has not changed one bit since then. Well, it's actually gotten worse now because of social media and the ability to reach more people through the Internet.

Well, you know, we had an interview with Piers Morgan a couple days ago and Nina Turner was on the panel. It was supposed to be a debate. It was actually a great conversation. And Nina was like, listen, she was slamming Democrats. She's like, you can't keep saying Nazi. You can't keep saying he's the boogeyman because when the real bad guys come around, you've taken all the power out of that word.

That's right. It's just it's a disservice to the whole country of the United States. Well, it's also one of these issues where the further we get away, you're right, it's happening more and more often. And part of that is because the further we get away from World War II, the easier it is to mythologize that time period. So what they can do is say things like, well, if you don't support transgenderism, you're a Nazi. Every single man who fought in the Second World War would have opposed transgenderism if it was an issue that was brought to their attention. They would have gone, that's disgusting, right? That's not something that they were fighting to try to preserve.

And so at the time, if they were to call you a Nazi for not going along with the insane left-wing program of today, when World War II veterans were still living and vocal, there's very few of them left, they'd come out and say, well, that's obviously insane. I fought the Nazis, and that's obviously insane i fought the nazis and that's not what i believed everyone who fought the nazis would be considered far left by the modern democratic party standards and i'm including the communist russians in that like every single person who did anything to defeat the nazis with a tiny handful of exceptions would be extremely far to the right by the modern democratic far right not far left like oh did i say left i'm

sorry no hold on rewind it i take it back i take it back no yes i'm exhausted but i take it back far right i'm i'm just imagining all these old men like look i fought so hard for the right for you to keep your own penis son so don't don't cut it off don't get in with this hogwash don't slice that off um we're going to go. I'm not going to a new story, but this is connected to the story that we've been talking to, talking about Arizona's Attorney General's office probing Trump's violent comments about Liz Cheney. So it is turning in or the left is continuing the lawfare to use, you know, against Donald Trump. Arizona Attorney General Chris Mays said Friday that her office is investigating whether former President Donald Trump's violent remarks about former GOP representative Liz Cheney broke the law.

I've already asked my criminal division chief to start looking at that statement, analyzing it for whether it qualifies as a death threat under Arizona's laws. Mays, a Democrat shocker, said during a taping of Sunday Square off on 12 News in Phoenix. I'm not prepared to say whether it was or it wasn't, but it is not helpful as we prepare for our election. And as we try to make sure that we keep the peace at our polling places and in our state maze told the nbc affiliates now this is obviously ridiculous anyone that listens to donald trump's actual statement hears him say that liz cheney should have a rifle like he's talking about putting her into a combat situation it's the chick it's a it's the old chicken hawk yeah argument which we've heard a million

times code pink used to do it all the time they used to say oh george bush should go fight the war in iraq and send george bush's kids and send dick cheney's kids this was standard fare from the left absolutely totally normal from the left up until donald trump says it and then now we're talking about maybe maybe this is a violation of of some kind of fabricated law because in the united states we do have the freedom of speech it's protected by the first amendment and it is abundantly clear that that was not a threat there was no no threat in that contained in there at all. This is meant to just rile up the left because this is not getting through to anybody on the right.

I agree that it's meant to rile up the left, but I also think that if they could, they would throw him in jail or do something to him. So it's idiot, whereas yes, you're right, I agree. It is meant to rile up the left, but give them the power, give them the authority, and they will throw their political opponents in jail. They did it with, what's his name?

Bannon. What? Yeah, Bannon. Bannon, the guy that did the whole voting meme thing. I forget what his name is. Douglas. And then they will have the absolute. Douglas Mackey.

And when Jimmy Fallon makes a similar joke just the other night, and that's definitely not going to happen. Okay. Fallon makes a similar joke just the other night, and that's definitely not going to happen. These things are intended to cool, to put a blanket on the right's confidence in their ability to speak. So I'm sorry for cutting you off. No, I had nothing important to say. Also, recently they've been talking about how if he gets into office, he's going to use the law, the government against his enemies.

They are unashamed of the hypocrisy in their ability to do exactly what they say you are going to do and do it right in front of your eyes. There's a reason why you court a low-info voting bloc that isn't going to look further into this because the ones that won't look into it are useful idiots and the rest of them are the truly evil ones who use your stupidity against

your best interests exactly i mean they always do what they accuse you of doing i'm almost wondering if they're going to send liz cheney to fight in a war if kamala wins maybe she puts liz on the front lines when i read stuff like this it's like you okay you're either evil or you're stupid no they're one or the other because either you you're so dumb you cannot see the context and see what he was actually saying. Or you're evil and you're choosing to ignore the context. That's the two options. I think a lot of people, they don't want to put the time in to get the context. Because that takes time to get the full context.

Who's going to sit down and watch all three hours of the Rogan podcast other than people that are like us. It's our job to kind of know what's going on there. But that's the point. They use it against you. They use the fact that the average everyday person has a busy life. They've got a husband or wife. They've got kids. They've got a job. They used to trust these organizations to take the relevant soundbites and create the proper context around something. Now, there's a lot of discussions about whether news was ever really unbiased. And that's an interesting discussion in and of itself but that is used against them we know now that what is it um 80 percent of journalists are democrats

are registered democrats or it's even higher than that i think in the corporate press it's significantly higher okay okay so the the point being is that they use your inability to spend three hours against you and that's compounded with the fact that people take emotional reactions to all of this. And so the people who are posting these articles, the lawyer or the people who are in government who are pushing it, they're evil. The rest are just stupid. Michael Malice makes a great point too when he says, you know, the average person, if you try to tell them that the news is lying to them like they understand it in a similar fashion to if you told them that the weatherman is lying to them and not making a mistake he's intentionally

lying to you why would the weatherman lie to me you know why would the meteorologist lie to me about what the weather's going to be and and so it seems so ridiculous to the average person who's not you know if you watch 20 30 minutes of news a, you're going to have only a wavetop kind of understanding. And so it does seem completely out of left field. What do you mean there? Why would the news lie? They're the news. Other than boomers and people waiting for flights, who is really watching legacy news anymore?

It's true. I mean, it's a good point. I think the medium's dying for a reason. But what the legacy media is trying to do at this point is exert control over new media. That's why we saw this hit piece published by the New York Times the other day. They're desperate because their grip on power is slipping away. And so what they have to do is ensure that their vision for what should be printed, for what should be said, for what's allowable is adopted by these major platforms. So they're trying to use the power that they still have left

to organize boycotts against new media platforms so that they can basically use the purse string to control the message. And they know that headlines really do still manipulate people by their feelings, which is such a powerful aspect of social media. It's not even about whether they're watching CNN or not, right? It's whether Meemaw is posting the really, really incendiary Trump article in her Facebook mom group. That's you know, that's how you spread the anger far.

I am Meemaw. There you go. But I mean, we see it all the time with with just totally fake stories like Donald Trump wants to ban abortion nationwide. No matter how many times the man says. I wish he did. Yeah, I wish he did. He doesn't. Chavis is like based. I wish he did. It's like they're lying about it yeah and and whether it be that or i mean there's any number of things that like donald trump in project 2025 he has no interest in project 2025 he had nothing

to do with it but and even though there's plenty in project 2025 that it'd actually be really good for the country um they people People that have this understanding of it because of the way that they're told things by the media, they have this understanding of it to be like, oh, this is how you get to the, what's it, the red dress show with the white boy. Handmaid's Tale. Handmaid's Tale, yeah.

This is how you get, I don't, you know, I don't. Phil was lying. He watches it all the time. He just wanted to pretend like he hasn't. Part of what's so funny about A Handmaid's Tale is the woman all look very angry while wearing bonnets which is just a comedic image just seeing like an angry person in a bonnet like man so he like messes with the tassels apparently funny about it it's like this is such a goofy show so where so where do you draw your your ire in these situations right so? So my anger is with the media,

who has worked tirelessly to slander people for the last, well, decades upon decades, but especially the last eight to 10 years. But then you have to ask yourself, look, at a certain point, you're an adult. You're responsible for the information. You're responsible for the information that you're taking in every day, right?

So if you're going to yell at me about Project 2025, but you're not willing to do the five minutes worth of research it takes to go find the speech of him talking about you, I don't even have to say you have to look for videos saying debunking it, like as if you're trying to not confirm your own bias. Just go look for any speech of Donald Trump actually talking about it. And within five to ten minutes, you will find at least one clip where he says, I have no interest in this. I don't know what this is about, but they're not willing to do that work. So depending on the day, my anger goes between the journalists

who actively lie for evil reasons and people who will not do any work to actually change or broaden their horizons on things that they tend to hold against us far more than we hold against them you are more likely to remain friends with your uh with your democrat pals your lefties whatever that's never bothered me i can agree to disagree about anything but it's their inability to look into it at all but yet hold it against you as if you're the problem yeah don't look into it but break up with your Trump-supporting boyfriend.

There's something infuriating about that. Well, I also want to point something else out, too. If you all remember, it was about a year ago when Zelensky said to Americans, had the audacity to say to us, if you don't keep funding our war effort, soon you're going to have to send your sons and daughters to fight for us. So we have a foreign leader telling us as a nation that our young men and women should be sent to fight in a war to die for his interests. But Donald Trump cracks a joke about Liz Cheney fighting in a war and they clutch their pearls. That is just beyond what is allowable in terms of the Overton window or the discourse.

That's insulting. It's shocking. A foreign leader got on television and told you your sons and daughters should be sent to fight in a war that has nothing to do with you. But Donald Trump says this woman who is voting in favor of wars, whose father voted in favor of wars and got tens if not hundreds of thousands of people killed, should probably have to fight a war too oh you can't say that no no wars are things that people we have contempt for and don't care whether they live or die are sent to fight in you don't say that about a political leader yeah don't we have troops overseas don't we have yep in ukraine there are probably american volunteers there's no there there are no official u.s servicemen in the U.S., in Ukraine. That will be in the intelligence reports two decades from now.

What about, like, service them, like trans people? I don't think that there's a lot of Americans that are direct action thems. I think that most of the direct action Americans are still mostly guys. There's not a lot of uh combat thems no i like service no door kickers that are they you know um all right so moving on to the next story uh the u.s economy added just 12 000 jobs in october impacted by hurricanes boeing strike now this is rounded down or re-adjusted from a hundred thousand so less than it's just a little bit more than 10 percent of what they initially estimated and it is coming out right before the election.

I mean, I'm a little surprised that it came out when it did. But then again, it is Friday. What time did the story come out? They don't want this to catch on. It came out this morning. Okay, I'm surprised they didn't wait until 5. I kind of feel the same way. But I don't know the last time that there was a revision up. So job creation in October slowed to its weakest pace since late 2020 as the impacts of storms in the southeast and a significant labor impasse dented the employment picture.

Non-farm payrolls increased by 12,000 for the month, down sharply from September and below the Dow Jones estimate estimate for one of 100 000 the bureau of labor statistics reported friday and what had already been expected to be a downbeat report october posted the smallest gain since december 2020 remember what december 2020 was i mean we were in the throes of covid um this doesn't speak well for uh next six months, what the next administration is walking into. So personally, I don't have a lot of faith in the left's economic plans. They've proven to be less than stellar in the past four years. I would like to see Donald Trump or I would not even that. I think Donald Trump is the guy that's actually writing the economic plans for the U.S. if he were to be the president. But I would like to see conservatives because conservatives' economic plans tend to be more successful.

They don't need to talk about what they're going to do for the economy because the economy is great. Have you not listened to Don Lemon? I keep hearing that consistently. Yeah, Don Lemon said it like, what do you mean the economy's bad? Grocery prices are affordable. What? You must be stupid. The difference between being a grower or a shower.

Well, the great thing about the economy is that, you know, when it's doing well, you have to tell everyone that it's doing well or they won't notice. Because none of us none of us can i watch the news every day to try to figure out whether the economy is good because i can't tell based on my day-to-day life i'm like i can't tell the grocery store really i'm like is this good is is it harder to afford things is it easier to make money i'm like am i broke yeah am i broke right now i thought thought I was. And then Don Lemon told me everything's great. And it'll be worse, too, because historically we know that when presidents enter office now, there's usually an insane amount of executive orders that get put into play. Certainly the killing of the pipeline after the last one, stopping of funding for the border wall.

It will only clamp down and get worse. But the biggest, the thing that's funniest about this is they're like, vote for economic change by voting for Kamala Harris. And then you're like, but like, she's already in office. I mean, I know she's not the president, but like, they're already there. They're like, don't think about it. Just do it. Yeah, I'm not entirely convinced that the new administration would have significantly different economic policies. Mark Cuban thinks you should vote for her, so it must be a good idea.

She brings her own experiences to the job. I mean, she's only been attorney general of California and a senator, right? Those have been her jobs. I don't know that she's done anything. She's never created a job. She worked at McDonald's. Allegedly. No, hold on.

Wait, was that Photoshopped actually? That picture was Photoshopped. It was Photoshopped. I believe it was a woman who had died. Yeah, it's a sad story. When you actually read the story, it's heartbreaking. I mean, all her jobs are hand jobs. Yes. and jobs yes um so i i think that because of the things that she has said in the past now i know

that she's walked all of her positions back she said that i don't support this i don't support that i don't support this all of these positions these economic positions that she had been endorsing in 2019 when she was running for president of her on her own ticket um all of these terrible economy destroying positions she's walked them back but i i imagine that were she to get into office there would be at least some kind of policies that resemble those, because I don't believe for a second that she actually has pro-growth policy. The, what is it, the opportunity economy that she's talking about? She's not talking about, you know, making policy that's actually going to make it easier for the job producers to produce jobs. And as much as the left hates to hear it, the people that make jobs,

they're the millionaires and billionaires. So if you have a policy that's attacking millionaires and billionaires, those people are going to tighten their belt and they're going to make cuts or they're going to not hire people. They're going to not invest because the government's coming after their profit margins. So if the profit margin gets smaller, they're not going to be hiring people. And that means that there will not be new jobs for people that are looking for entry-level positions or what have you. Well, look what happened in California. If you want to look for a model that would run similar at the national scale, when they implemented the wage increase for fast food workers in California, and they immediately say, oh, we're going to automate this, we're going to automate that, we're going to fire as many people as we can. They never understand that you have to look to

the way these states are run if you want a look, at least a shadow of a look of what it will look like on the national level. Now, obviously, it wouldn't be implemented further. But the thing is, what's odd is the closer you get to election, the less you should believe most of the policies that they start pushing because they're starting to get desperate. I mean, look, they're campaigning for white dudes again. There's white dudes

for Harris, right? They've ignored white dudes for the last, you know, 10 years, but suddenly they need to win an election. They don't have a white guy running. How is she going to have money for all this? How is she going to have money for, last, you know, 10 years, but suddenly they need to win an election. They don't have a white guy running, which automatically. How is she going to have money for all this? How is she going to have money for like, you know, trans inmates to grow a penis on their arm while they're in jail?

How is she going to have money for like giving black guys, they get a special. Crypto. Yeah, they get crypto and then new homeowners get like, and we still haven't, did Biden pay back like everybody's loans? No. For college? That never happened.

It's just the level of pandering on that was so weird. I had never, I had never in my entire time on this planet, in my entire time paying attention to politics, I never heard anyone say the primary issue for me is ensuring that black men have their crypto protected. I never heard anyone say that if they're gonna have crypto they should also have blood toe for the other gang both gangs but it's like we we never at any point in time hurt like there were it's not like black people coming together like we need like where was the systemic racism in crypto this is not a thing this is not a thing but the um the campaign is just trying to promise, as you said,

they're just trying to promise people whatever they think will get them to vote for them. It almost seems like she knows she's going to lose. This is a campaign that a candidate would run just to keep up with the appearances. The lack of what she says at all these speeches and podcast appearances she's doing, everything's from a middle-class family. She's kind of just appeasing the donors. It almost seems like she doesn't think she can do it. The thing that she has that seems to be the most compelling is abortion.

Yeah, she wants to let the women kill their babies. Yeah, and even that she has to lie about because the federal government isn't going to be doing anything. Because it's not on the ballot at all? Well, not only that, but the federal government, I mean, the Supreme Court said that the federal government can't make a nationwide law about it, that it has to go to state. It's so disgusting the way

she'll frame it in a rally, and she'll be like, this is about, you know, you get to plan your family the way you want. You need to have the freedom. I'm like, you're talking about abortion. You're not talking about planning a family. You're talking about killing a baby. Literally, there's this page, Kamala HQ, have you seen? And they will just post flagrant misinformation just constantly.

They will just make things up. And they had a line where it was, I can't remember if it was J.D. Vance. And to be fair, it might have been an adjacent account, another one of these left-wing accounts. But they were talking about how Republicans are going to try to track women's menstrual cycles and have a Tana basement. All right, there's an easy way of determining what life in America is going to start to look like since Roe v. Wade was overturned.

And that is the 200 years of American history prior to Roe being decided. They weren't tracking women's menstrual cycles in 1972 and earlier. If you want a red wave, you have to track our menstrual cycle. Maybe they're just trying to help them out. They're like, look, if you can pay attention to the women in your life, if you need to know when your wife is going to be upset, you got to track the menstrual cycle.

They're just trying to help. I don't need to track anything. I can tell when she's being a see you next Tuesday. She's eating a bunch of ice cream again. I'm screwed. It's just so creepy. It's like they're going to have a pregnancy database to determine if they're going to throw you in jail for a miscarriage. It's like, shut up. You're lying.

You're lying. Nobody, but I shouldn't say nobody believes it because some handful of people actually think it'll happen. A lot of people. Here's a story. There's a story that was circulating on X the other day. i just a lot of people believe because they want to believe it exactly go ahead sorry but they're sorry i know i don't want to dead name uh x yeah but so so there was a story that was circulating around x that you

could tell some lefty wanted to stick right he really wanted to become a story and it was about this woman in arizona who had the police knock on her door because she had a miscarriage and they arrested her and so i was like oh interesting so let me read this article and the article surrounding it what had happened was this woman according to the police officer who arrested her the police officer who arrested her believed that the child was born alive and then the woman killed it and hid the body. But regardless of whether that happened, because the investigation didn't prove that that happened or not. But what they said was this woman was smoking meth while pregnant. She was past the point of viability.

The autopsy showed that the unborn child was between 28 and 32 weeks, which if you want to look at what a 28 to 32 week old unborn child looks like, it's a full blown baby at that point. It really is. They survive outside of the womb at that point. And also the icing on the cake. It happened in 2018 before Roe was overturned that this woman got arrested. So the whole story was just nonsense. And you hear this all the time. Almost every single time there's a story in the media about a woman being investigated for a miscarriage.

It's like they found a dumpster baby. They literally found a dead baby. And then they have to investigate to determine was this a stillbirth or did this woman give birth to a live baby and then kill it? But the police do not investigate miscarriages. It's complete insanity. But they will just make things up. Yeah, I feel like people that are at least center right or to the right are very aware of that.

I think the difficulty is convincing the average person, the average person that doesn't have a significant news diet, convincing them that that's the case because again i go back to michael malice's statement trying to convince someone that the weatherman's lying to you well kamala's got such a huge base of college educated female voters it's like she's preaching to the choir with that it's like oh you don't want to be tied down with a pregnancy do you you've got a lot of brunches left in you ladies well or all the celebrities who talk about, I wouldn't have been able to have my career

if I hadn't had an abortion when I was younger. Yeah. That's pretty horrible, I think. And I think that's disgusting and terrible, but on some level, it's like, it's more honest than what they continue to say right now, which is, well, if we don't have abortion bans, all of these women are going to die. And it's just a lie. It's not true. They'll make these stories up. They'll fabricate

information. They'll leave out all of the women who died from having abortions before Roe was overturned. But the center of the bullseye for them is, yeah, we want to just be able to discard with human life when it's not convenient for us. Also, a story that's framed to be that terrifying plays into the villainous role that they've created for Donald Trump in Four Republicans. So there was this meme going around. It was like Trump as Thanos. And I was like, look, this is the problem is you can't separate how you look at a Marvel villain. Because first of all, there's like endless interviews of lame movie producers and writers who are like, oh, Donald Trump was the inspiration for this character or Elon Musk was the inspiration for this character.

They can no longer separate rightly the difference between actual politicians who are trying to enact some type of governmental policy and weird Nazis and war criminals. Right. Because they actually have framed the war criminals as the good guys because they're the part of the Uniparty now. So it plays into all of their deluded fantasies that there's this evil that they're trying to stamp out. Red Skull and Jordan Peterson. Oh, my gosh, yeah. And Jordan Peterson is, again, he's very, very mild. Like, he's not even— Full-blown Nazi.

You know, you never heard Jordan Peterson speak? He's a total Nazi, that guy. He's such a mild-mannered, you know, Canadian, so right off the bat, he's extremely polite. You know, he's not going to be an aggressive dude. He never was. The only reason people know who he is is because he was like, I'm not going to say those words. Also, Elon Musk. It's what they've done to Elon Musk as well.

What's really funny is there was an interview with Robert Downey Jr. who talked about Elon Musk cosplaying as Tony Stark. I'm like, no, you're cosplaying as Tony Stark. Elon Musk is actually Tony Stark. That's hilarious. He's actually making rock. It just goes to show, as I mentioned earlier,

even Ike Eisenhower, and I'm sure people before him were compared to Hitler or compared to the Nazis. And yeah, you look at Jordan Peterson as if he's out there like, I'm just asking questions about racial superiority, man. I'm just curious. Clean your damn room. I mean, the Nazis did. They were tidy. Yeah, but what he points out.

That was Hugo Boss, I thought. Well, that's the thing. Actually, Jordan Peterson's room is very messy. So maybe he couldn't be a Nazi. Yeah, right. He's not so bad at messy, so maybe he couldn't be a Nazi. Yeah, right. Being tidy. This is the other thing that they'll do is they'll they'll take things that were normal in every culture throughout all of history. So just make some insane thing up. Just someone just make up an insane policy right now. If you don't clean your room, then you have to go to a reeducation camp. All right. Like, let's just say the left proposed

that for whatever reason. And then someone was like, well, I'm against that policy. You know what other country didn't have that policy? Nazi Germany. They'll try to bring everything back to that. Let's sing like, oh, Trump held a rally at Madison Square Garden. You know what else happened at Madison Square Garden?

A WWE event. Nope! Nazis! Did you know that transgenderism wasn't accepted in Nazi Germany? It wasn't accepted anywhere for all of history. It wasn't accepted in the USSR. It was never accepted anywhere until five minutes ago when you started forcing it. You have to like it and you have to hook up with them, whether you like it or not. Stalin killed a lot of gay people.

Stalin just, yeah, he killed a lot of people. He killed a lot of people. But yeah, you're right. But they try to turn it into any kind of morally conservative or traditionally conservative position equals Nazism. It's just ridiculous. Also, it's funny because it does pull it back, not to pull it back to Hollywood

again, but you mentioned Stalin. So we've got endless movies about Nazis. We've got endless movies about Hitler. It's been covered ad nauseum for every decade for however many years. But the problem is they don't actually make a lot of interesting movies or stories about communists at all. So they don't have an analog to anything else other than if I disagree with you, you're a Nazi. Why is that red? Because Hollywood was always red.

Because Hollywood is full of communists. Yes, it is. You've never sounded more like George Carlin than just now. But George Carlin would have to throw some rhymes in there. Oh my gosh. Have you seen that meme? This might upset some fans, but there's this great meme

of what George Carlin would be like today, but it's just people speculating that he would have just fallen in line with the shit lips. Yeah, I'm terrified. Get the vaccine, everybody. You want it. Just be happy you don't know. Why are all these anti-maskers people whose faces you wouldn't want to see anyway?

It's a big club and you're not in it. Yeah, exactly. You want to get in the club, you got to wear the mask. I am going to wear the mask. But the... No, it's very sad. We don't really talk about communism often enough,

even though it's one of the most horrific ideologies that's existed historically. And it's gotten to the point where whenever media of the Cold War era is created, they always depict the fear of communism as this silly fad that was nothing more than a moral panic. And it was totally overblown it's like hold on a second people who were living in a world where an ideology had killed over a hundred million people

and one of the largest nations on the planet was governed by that ideology and they had nukes like those people being concerned about communism were a bunch of rubes and fools but you living 80 years after the death of hitler and the fall of nazism being concerned that everyone is a nazi makes you an enlightened intellectual not a paranoid freak not i'm sorry if you are a paranoid freak if 80 years after the fall of nazism you're still concerned that there might be a nazi around every corner but you think that it's foolish to fear communism in an era where communism is still a governing force in the world. I'm sold, Seamus. I am sold.

You're anti-communist now. Absolutely. I finally convinced Phil to do that. I did not see that coming. Oh, come on. All right. Anyway, so we were talking about the jobs number sorry yeah we got we got uh awesomely sidetracked to dumping on communism and i think that that's a that's a positive thing

it is a positive um so why don't we go ahead into something a little uh a little more light uh busted the inside story of how the kamala harris campaign manipulates reddit and breaks the rules to control the platform. Now, I know that there's going to be people that are going to say, oh, there's people that aren't aware of what Reddit's like, and they're going to say, that's terrible. That's a bad thing. It's more of the same.

But if anyone's familiar with Reddit and the way the mods behave, it is an absolute leftist mess. It is atrocious the way they got rid of the Donald Trump Reddit just because people are here saying nice things about Donald Trump. We ain't having that. So from The Federalist, for years, many have speculated that Democrat political candidates may be filling social media with fake posts to deceive the public and make their campaigns and causes seem more popular than they are. Hmm.

These claims have often been dismissed by the left, citing that Democrat voters are already more likely to be on the Internet compared to their not-as-tech-savvy Republican counterparts. Yeah, and don't you know Republicans are dumb? Republicans totally dominate the meme game online. Like, most independent media is right-leading. That's what they're always complaining about i mean i'm i'm on board with you again you sold me already this would suggest that the constant flood of left leaning content on websites such as reddit was merely a reflection of the user base however

many people simply couldn't shake the feeling that something was just off, especially in the run up to major elections. Despite my fervent belief that something was amiss, I never had any direct proof that Democrats were actively manipulating social media. That all changed two weeks ago when ex-user Jesse Princy replied to one of my posts with a screenshot from a Discord server seemingly related to the Harris-Walls campaign. The post says that calling already users, the no access team would love your help. We're posting and boosting, breaking informative and positive Harris and Waltz news, as well as campaign generated memes and screenshots

of Kamala Harris HQ social media to turn the tide on Reddit from orange to blue. We especially need people who can post at our politics, our news, our technology, and other large subreddits. Join here, yada, yada, yada. I don't think this is a surprise. No. And anyone that spends a decent amount of time on X

might be familiar with the fact that there are some accounts that are far left that don't have a lot of followers, but they'll post something and it gets tons of shares and tons of likes. And there's been a lot of speculation that it's people on Reddit. They say, oh, this particular post or hey guys, someone will go and they'll say, hey, I posted this. Can you give me some boost this and blah, blah, blah.

And all the people from Reddit on these subreddits will go ahead and jump in there and like it and retweet it, etc., etc. So what do you guys think? Do you think that this is an obvious thing? Do you think it's something that is worth the right trying to counteract? It's a bit confusing because on one hand you have Zuckerberg apologizing for basically collaborating with, what was it, the CIA or the FBI? The Biden White House, I believe. Yeah, the Biden White House. Basically, the way they squelched the laptop story.

That's all coming out, but you still have this. And this seems like they're up to the same old shenanigans with astroturfing. It's not just the astroturfing. Their ground game is infinitely better than the rights. There's a reason why if you get somebody knocking on your door to talk politics, 90% of the time, it's somebody campaigning for a Democrat, right? It's just the way that they move from group to group and get interest up far better. It may not be organic, but they coalesce around that idea and they spread their ideas wide that way so this goes on in hollywood too so they have people go into trailer like into trailer reactions

and things like that to promote movies and talk good about them it goes in the comment sections for these things all this is is just that the internet that you're looking at now which is supposed to be the public square is artificially filled with people who are either monetarily incentivized or in this case, ideologically incentivized. And they do organize on other forums and things like this. This is just, in a lot of ways, them being better at getting their message out. So it's like Jehovah's Witnesses.

Yeah, and the right- We're the Catholics, Seamus. We're the Catholics. And the right- We go door to door and be like, look, have you seen this meme? You heard the news of Donald Trump? That would not help.

Well, it's funny because they will call us members of a cult and they're the ones knocking on doors. Have you heard about Kamala Harris? I'm not going to get into the whole James Lindsay stuff, but I honestly think that he's got his finger on the pulse when it comes to the cult aspect, the religious aspect of the left, he's focusing on the right currently. But he's really brought to light a lot of the esoteric kind of foundations of the statist ideas from the left. And how without traditional religions, that doesn't mean that religion goes away. It just means that there's a void that gets filled by something else so yeah no listen part of what's really interesting about this though is that they felt a need to manipulate reddit which is already a very very left-leaning platform that's the first thing that i thought when you think that's because it's friendly a

friendly base and they they feel like they get more traction because they already have a foothold there? I mean, it's possible, but you'd think that if a website was solidly on your side, you would try to interfere with another one. I get your point, too, though. It's just interesting. It would make more sense that they were trying to do it on X somehow. Yeah, or X, or maybe Facebook.

Maybe OnlyFans. A platform that's maybe more friendly to them than X, but is not as overtly left-wing as Reddit, because everyone, like Reddit, it's basically Tumblr in terms of politics. It's probably a little more establishment than Tumblr was, but it's very, very to the left. When Elon Musk bought Twitter,

it kind of like was a crack in the Democrat social media like the dam yeah because democrats have controlled all of social every platform anything that was popular democrats had such control over and then elon buys twitter you get the twitter files right you get uh joe rogan is the top podcast and these are cracks in the dam and now the water's flowing out and people are seeing it and they're saying that's why reddit has become a problem they're like oh crap, we're getting more leaks. And it's continuing, continuing. And that's why I think at times it's like the stuff they post is so out of touch because they didn't need to care before. They had such control over it.

It didn't matter what they said. It was going to be successful. Again, not to reference Jordan Peterson too much, but he made a point that zero is a special number. When you have no outlets that are promoting a particular perspective, then you have a very, very, very difficult time getting anything out. All you need is one to actually make a dent

and actually have significant effect. And I think we saw that with Twitter becoming, you know, being X and Elon Musk taking over and the Twitter files, of course, that was helped along by people like, you know, Sullenberger and by Barry Weiss and by Matt Taibbi and stuff because they're so they're well respected. But it was the fact that X was the place where you could go and not get, you know, get booted just because you, you know, dead named someone or something like that. Right. And like Trump used to like he he's new to addressing the whole like trans agenda and the sterilization stuff. He wasn't even talking about this in 2020, but it's because of the pandemic and moms in particular seeing, oh, this is what's going on in our kids' classrooms. And they were able to voice their concerns

to more conservative outlets and they kind of picked up Daily Wire, ran with it. And now it's like what you said, you just need one. And then pretty soon everybody's covering these issues. It's one of the reasons why they work so hard to demonize alt-media. And in general, if you can discredit – it's why your leftist friends will tell you, well, you got your news from Fox.

It's not true. Well, if you have any leftist friends, you know. It's why they'll tell you, well, that story isn't true. It's from Fox News. That story is not true. You got it off X. They're clearly just lying. It's disinformation. When you go to the source and you discredit the news outlet itself or the platform itself, it allows them also in a weird way to stay in their

own echo chamber because they don't have to actually take into account anything you're saying because they can just say, well, they got it off this platform I don't agree with. Therefore, it must be wrong or lying. And they do that with the supporters of Trump too. How could you vote for someone who has the support of these people or Fuentes or whoever's like the hated group du jour? Awkward silence. Awesome.

Let's get going. I will just tack on there. Obviously, you know, Elon buying Twitter was a fantastic decision. I'm really glad that he did that. you know, Elon buying Twitter was a fantastic decision. I'm really glad that he did that. And it's just remarkable what having a single platform, at least being neutral to conservatives, has done for our movement. There are people that are that'll swear up and down that X is a right wing platform now. Not even close. And it's not because the left is in no way prevented from being there. The there, you know, media matters, all those all those those sites and whoever has a left wing bias, they are more than welcome to be there. They do not get banned for having left wing perspectives, for saying left wing talking points, making left wing points at all. They they do not get banned unless they break the actual rules.

Plus, they wanted the echo chamber, right? So one of the issues was is they had the echo chamber before where they got to post whatever they wanted when it was Twitter and a lot of people who would be able to push back on what they were saying were already banned.

It's one of the reasons, I think, why Instagram tried to make threads a thing. Remember threads? And a lot of people who were left-wing media influencers like i'm going over to threads and you know nobody followed nobody cares if you look at the rise of the popularity of podcasts how like that's the top media right now like people aren't watching msnbc they're watching the joe rogan experience it's because when you get a two-hour conversation

three-hour conversation it's raw it's not scripted it's not structured you know anything can really happen and people crave the authenticity of that and And so when you see these like AstroTurf posts, you see Harry Sisson going on Twitter. And despite the worst interview in recent memory of any political candidate, he's like, oh, my God, she hit it out of the park. Right. People are like, come on, man. Come on. Like this is so obvious what you're doing. And people are sick of it. Like you can only do it for so long. If you doing and people are sick of it like you can only do it for so long if you look at the comment section of the theo vaughn episode where he interviewed jd vance people are like wait we were being told that this guy's so weird he's so normal

he's the coolest guy like want to hang out with him yeah that was that was one of the things that i noticed most is is the reaction to jd vance actually getting out into the public space and the way that people said, wait a minute, we were told that this guy is so weird and he's the most normal dude ever. And I think that you see the same thing. Probably. I haven't looked at the comments from the Joe Rogan podcast, but I watched the, the, the podcast with JD Vance on Rogan and, you know, he comes across as super average everyday guy he comes he's very smart he comes across as a smart guy but he doesn't come across as

in any way awkward or anything like that yeah one time he went into a donut shop it was awkward when you compare him to you know Walls Walls actually comes across as weird yeah he put tampons in the boys bathroom he's a very weird guy.

I'm friends with a lot of school shooters, the guy said. Yeah, he's a very important guy. And I'm sure that there's plenty of stuff that seems weird that's just him misspeaking because he's not used to being – I don't know, he's a governor, so he should be used to it, or was a governor, so he should be used to it. But maybe he's not used to that much attention from the whole country or whatever. But when you contrast with J.D. Vance, he comes across as weird, and Vance seems perfectly normal.

Well, that's exactly what I'm talking about. The donut shop that you brought up, right? It's scripted. They're like, we're going to do this thing where you go in a donut shop, you're going to seem normal like a regular dude. And it turned out really weird. It was so awful.

It was terrible. And then he does the two hour pod. I think it was two hours with Joe Rogan. It's like, this guy's kind of cool. And this is part of what's so amazing about the world of podcasting. Now, the fact that you can have multiple hour long conversations with these

political figures and you really get to know them. I have never felt like I have known who a vice presidential candidate was in my entire life to the extent that I feel I know who J.D. Vance is just because I've gotten to listen to hours of him speaking. I know about his perspective. Something really struck me when I was listening to this conversation with Joe Rogan. He was saying that his son told Trump a joke. He's like, ah, the joke he told me was kind of a dirty joke. So I'm like, ah, you know, Trump's- I want to know the joke.

I know, we don't know what the joke is. He didn't tell a joke. But what really struck me when he said that, I just thought, oh my goodness, that's the first time in my entire life I've ever heard a vice presidential candidate tell me what they think about the presidential candidate. Like that's the first time I've ever heard

what their perspective was about them, what their interactions are like with them instead it's it's all this like focused group uh rehearsed and teleprompted talking points and then you get it for five minutes it makes you think because you're like wait why did kamala only want to do an hour with rogan if trump can do three it's not like trump is less busy than kamala like she could she could have done three hours but then you're like oh she can't like why why was her closing speech 30 minutes because the people on these platforms that have the largest reach can't be bought you'd imagine so she does the 60 minutes interview it goes horribly and then they edit the 60 minutes interview so that you don't know how awful it was.

Everyone knows that more people catch the clips than catch the live of anything like that. It's one of the reasons why Jon Stewart came back. So he can go and they can cut those things up into clips so that he can influence the election the way that he wants to go. So they're used to a state-sponsored media program that is all of these, whether it's 60 Minutes, whether it's CNN or MSNBC, they want access. They want access to these candidates, and they're willing to make whatever concessions they have to to do so. Because, not just because they want the access, but they agree with them. Yeah. They have the same perspectives.

And they're also clinging to relevance, too. Exactly. I'm not the first person to say this. This is something a lot of people have been repeating but part of what this election has shown is just how irrelevant old media is becoming and kamala harris's campaign they were certainly smart to tell the racist one not to do kamala kamala i don't know which is the racist whichever um her campaign it was actually very smart of them to strategically to tell her not to do Joe Rogan. Right. But this line of reasoning that she is the vice president and he needs her more than she needs.

That is a line of garbage. No one actually believes that. No, no one actually means that. And you look at the views that Call Her Daddy got on YouTube when Kamala went on, as opposed to the viewership that Trump's conversation with Joe Rogan had. It's just an astronomical difference. I mean, Rogan crushed Call Her Daddy in terms of views. But that's still going to do them better than 60 Minutes and any of these other ones, right? So she still reached, I mean, granted, those are all people that are already voting for her anyway.

She's kind of preaching to the choir on Call Her Daddy. But the most infuriating thing this entire election cycle was watching Tim Walls play Madden in the strategically placed Mountain Dew bottle that you know he didn't drink. It wasn't even a regular Mountain Dew. It was Diet. And they're just like, you know, he had some stuff. It was like, uh, guys like video games. You know what video gamers't even a regular Mountain Dew. It was diet. He had some stuff. He was like,

guys like video games. You know what video gamers like? They like Mountain Dew. Doing Doritos. It's that. They created a Fortnite map for Kamala with no guns in it. With no guns. What's the point? That's so pointless. It's fake. Did they just have social workers? Yes.

You're a social worker. You have to go around council everywhere else in the game. It's fake fake it's inauthentic and the fact that most people these days pick up on it still seems strange to me considering how close the election is you should be able to see this type of inauthenticity from 10 miles away my favorite part of that whole madden with aoc and tim waltz was there was a tweet of a retweet of AOC's post or something. Say, hey, check me out on Twitch. And this guy's like, ah, yes, that's exactly what I'll do. Instead of watching seven hours of NFL Red Zone, I'll go watch Tim Waltz play Madden.

I'm like, dude, like someone told them in the back room, like, hey, let's do it on football Sunday. Right. Because people like football and it happens on Sundays. So play the football video game on Sunday. It's like, dude, no, no. Like people want to play the game themselves. They think they're not going to watch Tim Waltz play Mad like, dude, no. No. People want to play the game themselves. They're not going to watch Tim Walz play Madden, especially when real football's on.

You don't think they want Tim Walz's extremely interesting commentary? Well, and there's the other thing, too. Man, I'm a broken record here because I keep saying this thought didn't originate with me, but this is one thing I heard people saying about that whole

stream is that they you know him and aoc were going back and forth with these very rehearsed boring political talking points it's like that misses the whole point of doing a live stream where you're playing a video game the whole point is i'm half focused on something else so i'm not as inhibited so i'm just going to tell you how i feel about things they're going back and forth like well one thing i'm here to talk about today is women's rights. Let me hit all of my bullet points. And the biggest takeaway from that was people were just

looking at AOC being like, is she pregnant? That's right, yeah. My favorite thing about that was when Milo said that she looked like a serial killer that was dressed like AOC. It's funny because that actually hurts. Obsessed with AOC.

That hurts her because one of her selling points early on in her political career was that she did seem more authentic, a left-wing version of that. She would go on her Instagram lives and talk directly to the people that followed her. So she actually benefited from the same type of authenticity that we're talking about right-wing politicians trying to put forth. But now she's part of the board. benefited from the same type of authenticity that we're talking about right-wing politicians trying to put forth. But now she's part of the board. You can only be called a big booty Latina so many times before you just don't want access

to the people. Do you remember when, was it, I think Pelosi's done this too now, but I want to say it started with Liz Warren. She was like, I'm going to have me a beer. Oh yeah. With a beer in a way that- And her husband smacked her on the butt. What?

Yeah, that actually happened. I didn't remember that. Tim brought it up the other night. We watched it, and he literally did. Yeah, it's so... Both the beer and the smack on the butt were... I know that you're normally drinking children's blood. Like, don't get on television and act like,

I'm just going to have me a little Corona here. Both the beer and the smack on the butt were not natural. I would rather see her drink from like a $10,000 bottle of scotch. At least it's more authentic. No, no, that's actually true. I really, I really believe that. I mean, people will say Trump isn't humble. I mean, sure, in certain ways he isn't, but I actually think it's way, way, way more humble

to be a billionaire and act like a rich person than to be a billionaire and act like you're a broke college student. It's fairly obnoxious. It's very like there's things that Trump isn't humble about. But the fact that he's just honest about the fact that he has money is very humble. Every rich person wants to act like they're not rich. Yeah. You know, Mark Zuckerberg has to throw a T-shirt and sweatpants on. You're like, dude, you're a billionaire.

Come on. Like, you're not fooling me. Like, he's just. You're like, dude, you're a billionaire. Come on. You're not fooling me. He's just like me. I know you're drinking children's blood. The t-shirt doesn't fool me. I know what's going on here. It's also because the right doesn't hate money, and their voting bloc on the left hate money,

and they hate wealthy people. So they have to fake it as much as possible. We were talking about it today. So we covered all of the Avengers who all look like they they're terminally ill if you go look at this video uh we talked about them campaigning for harris walls and i was like all of these people have finally learned their lesson they frame their camera really tight to the room so you can't see how expensive everything in their house is i was like there's one tv behind them it's a modest size tv because if you show the whole room it's full of a bunch

of antiques. If you're outside, don't show the expensive view. They did this with Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis when they had he didn't get me too, but there was like human. They had to apologize for they went and they like filmed on the side of the barn at their house

so it looks like they're in a very, very rural area, but really they're just on this wealthy plot of land that's why I respect rappers they just bling everywhere flashing even if they don't have a lot of money they're borrowing their friends so that way they can

flash it around they're going to borrow as much as they can you know they'll rent stuff they'll go and they'll buy it and then return it when they're done just so that way they can make the video. That's what I'm talking about. If you can't, fake it until you make it, man. You know what's funny? You know what the blink thing actually comes from?

What? People wanting to have a lot of money. Mitt Romney. Yeah, Mitt Romney. No, so people want to have money. Basically, if you were making money doing illegal things and you didn't want to get audited, you wouldn't want money in your bank account, so you would just buy expensive gold stuff and wear it because if you're living in a bad neighborhood you can't keep it at home when you're safe because

you might get robbed so you just put all of your money into expensive jewelry and wear it on you all it's such a bad investment too because jewelry does not retain its value at all we talked about it earlier gold gold is what you invest i mean mean, look, I'm not a financial advisor, but I like gold coins, and I like them. I'm not a financial advisor or a leprechaun, but I'll get me gold. Seamus. I am a leprechaun.

Seamus. I almost made a remark when I was about you and the rainbows when we were doing the gold. Yeah, I mean, that's the Irish financial strategy is leave your gold out in a field somewhere. The sad thing is, is if they do win,

what this, all this says to me is that they can just, it's just place insert any candidate they want. And that is a dark notion for the country that you don't even have to win a primary election. You don't have to actually even be wanted by your constituency. They can just place you. You don't even have to do the whole DEI song and dance either.

The argument that this is the last election that Elon Musk likes to make, I'm not sure if it will be a single party, but I do think that there will be a lot of people on the right that will say it's not worth it to vote anymore. I mean, if there are dejected voters, there will be a lot of people that will be like, everybody hated Kamala Harris. She didn't win anything. She can't form sentences. Yeah, she's a terrible candidate. She can't give interviews.

She doesn't do anything. She has no experience. She hasn't give interviews. She doesn't do anything. She has no experience. She hasn't protected black men's crypto. And she still ends up the president. And so that means that the quote unquote deep state wins and voting is pointless. And all of our, you know, everything is just at the, you know, at the convenience of the government. All your rights are not real. And they all start drinking Bud Light again.

Might as well chop the penis off. It's like what Mike was saying last week on this podcast last Friday. We said they've poured trillions of dollars into stamping out populism the same way that they did communism back in the 50s, right? So how do you fight a trillion-dollar propaganda machine with memes? Trillion-dollar memes. Yeah, trillion-dollar memes. You have to spend more on the memes. I don't know that you, I mean, I don't know.

Elon Musk spends a lot of money on memes. A lot of the rocket launches are kind of memes. They really are kind of showing you what's possible. And I do think that if you have a Harris administration, I don't see them being particularly friendly to SpaceX, to the aspirations that Elon Musk has about getting... The goal is to have, I think, have the ability to do 10 or 20 launches a day

because the reusable rocket comes down they clean it off refuel it and go again if he can't get clearance to do a launch more than every few months then he might be right that the united you know human beings are never going to get off the planet and and colonize mars because governments won't allow it. The bureaucracy will just drag you down. And that is a real, actual consideration. Like, if you do not have a government that empowers its people to go try and fail and learn from the failures, then you're never going to have the kind of progress that we

need to be able to get off, you know, off of earth. And whether you believe colonizing Mars is realistic or not, um, asteroids coming to the earth and smashing into the earth and killing all life on earth. Those are real. Like that's happened in history. It's happened multiple times. So it's not a bad idea to say, hey, we should try and figure out a way to get some kind of plan B, even if it's just something like space stations that human beings can stay in for more than just a few months or whatever or a year or two. So that way, if something like that, something catastrophic happens, we can, you know, the species can survive or at least has a chance. And regardless of the likelihood of that kind of a scenario, surely we can agree that space exploration is worthwhile and that Elon Musk has really been progressing the technology in a way that we haven't seen the government. And we also know that for a fact at this point, really, that

they're going to go after Elon if they win this election. They're going to go after him and they are going to try to shut down SpaceX and make it more difficult for him to engage in the development of technology for space exploration. There's something that we say on PCC a lot, and that is bring back aspirational. We generally talk about it in the context of advertising. You know, we don't want to see, I'm tired of seeing... No fatties.

No fatties, unatt fatties unattractive people it kind of kind of peaked with that uh calvin klein ad where the there were just two people that were absolutely disgusting and they looked they looked awful and and that was kind of the peak of it and it's it's been getting better but the point is we need aspirational things that people will chase after elon musk isn't the only guy at SpaceX, but he's the reason why they have the tower that catches the rocket. And it worked the first time. It's insane.

And everybody, if I understand correctly, it was Musk and one other dude that were like, no, that's a good idea. And everybody else was like, you're nuts. But Musk was like, look, you're the guy that believes in it. I'm putting you in charge. And they did it. The point is, if you don't have people that will dream big and have goals that are beyond what you think you can do, right, then you're not going to have significant progress. All these progressives are so, they call themselves progressive, and all they do is want to go ahead and hold everyone back, crabs in a bucket.

And we need aspirational people. We need people. The reason to have beautiful people in advertisements is so that way you want to try to be like them. Maybe you'll never be the beautiful person in the advertisement, but you can lose some weight. You can go to the gym and you can be a healthier person for your family and for the people around you and that's something that's super important and i think that our society has lost that and they brought back the hot victoria's secret bottles thankfully all fatties for a while but it's such a wild thing too that i mean was it dove that it started with where they started those body positive ads where they're like look at all these different body types.

And it's such a weird thing, man, because it's also always, it was almost always heavier people, like really scrawny people never get a pass. The bigger you are, the more soap you need. It's actually a marketing ploy. That's hilarious. No, but it's a bizarre thing. And yeah, they want to demoralize people they want things to be uninteresting uh they want to uh shut down anybody who aspires to anything

and it's just really ironic to hear people call elon musk mediocre when he's done more to advance space exploration and creating electric cars and all of these things that you know quote unquote humanists used to consider their goals well they, they call Kamala Harris, who's just completely empty headed and impressive for just an absolutely vapid, bubble headed person. Just nothing going on up there. And we're supposed to believe that she's an impressive person and that Elon Musk is mediocre. They would also love this is the sad part about is they're all just statists. If NASA did it all, they'd love it.

They think the greatest thing. They don't care. They don't care that he's doing it. They care that it's not the government doing it. They don't care that he's doing it. They care that it's not the government doing it. They hate the fact that it's a billionaire. Now, the government can have as much money as they want. Their own money.

They love that the government has their money and is also a billionaire. They don't mind that he's a billionaire. He's a billionaire not doing their bidding because they love Bill Gates. Do people have any real thoughts about Bill Gates? I mean, we have negative thoughts about Bill Gates, but does anybody actually have, like, I love Bill Gates energy?

I don't think that's a thing. Maybe his kids. Well, yeah, I was just going to say, they get really upset about billionaires. And they'll go, a person could work for millions and millions of years and never earn that kind of money at a normal wage rate. And you go, OK, the government spends $19 billion per day, per day, the amount of money that they burn through. And you're not interested in examining where that money is going, how much of it is waste.

We know the Pentagon fails its audits all the time. And something like a third of the money that we throw at the industrial military complex just vanishes. And you're not really interested. Pallets of money just disappear overseas. And by the way, despite what most left-wing pundits will tell you, the military is not our largest expenditure either. We spend more on Medicare and Medicaid and Social Security.

And you wonder what kind of waste is going on there. But it's like people are only interested in critiquing the way wealth is used when the wealth is being used by a billionaire. But you can't control what the billionaire does with his wealth. You can control what the government does with the money if you vote, but no one looks into it. And it's like, so what's your solution? You want the government to take Elon Musk's wealth

so that they can waste it, and then you cannot care that it was wasted because the government did it? What's the end game here? Yeah, because that doesn't make people feel insecure. Like, Mike could have spent a million or two. I think you're right. I think it's an insecurity thing because the government, it's massive amounts of money being handled by completely mediocre people.

And so they feel like, I could be in that position. I'm not jealous. Yeah. We're going to go ahead and go to the next story here. Boeing slashes DEI department in latest staff shakeup. And I think that this kind of has a little bit to do with the last topic that we were talking about. Boeing dismantled its global diversity, equity, and inclusion department on Thursday,

according to a report by Bloomberg, citing sources familiar with the matter. The report stated that the staff from Boeing's DEI office will be combined with another human resource team focused on talent and employee experience. Does that sound kind of like rebranding? It's just rebranding. I don't know.

They say they say it was focused on talent and employee experience. And the reason I say this is because, well, let me let me go ahead and finish this here. Sarah Bowen, Boeing's vice president leading the DEI department, also announced her resignation from the company on LinkedIn Thursday. Today, I turned in my blue badge, Bowen said in her LinkedIn post. It has been the privilege of my lifetime to lead equity, diversity, and inclusion at the Boeing company these past five plus years. Our team survived every day to support, our team strived every day to support the evolving

brilliance and creativity of our workforce. The team achieved so much, sometimes imperfectly, never easily, and dreamed of doing much more still. All of it has been worth it. Now, Boeing had a terrible year. L's, just endless L's. Endless L's. All sorts of breaking planes.

Their stock has tanked, I believe. There's astronauts who are just stuck in outer space that they can't get back. So I do, as much as we can be a little on the cynical side here and say, oh, you know, they're just rebranding. I think, I mean, I like to think that the general tenor of society now and in conjunction with tangible losses and damages that Boeing has to absorb to absorb uh has made them say hey we actually do have to hire based on merit and especially when you're dealing with a company

like Boeing because not only are they you're dealing with planes or the the all the stuff with the 737 was a nightmare and and that shook a lot of people's confidence in flying overall because 737s are, you know, every Southwest airline plane is a 737. They're ubiquitous. You can't go to the airport. Obviously, you can't go to the airport without seeing them. The high profile of the Boeing failure to get the astronauts back. And then you throw in the fact that,

you know, Boeing has a lot of military contracts. Boeing is a very, very big, uh, military contractor. And I imagine, and again,

I don't have a whole lot of trust in the government, but I imagine the federal government is saying, look, you can't, you can't flub the stuff that you're making for us. You can't mess it up because we've got,men and soldiers and pilots' lives on the line. So I would like to think, again, maybe I'm being a little naive, but I would like to think that this is another of the small victories. And that's kind of why I wanted to end with it because it's a little white pill for a Friday.

You know, another small victory for team sanity. Only took a bunch of planes going down. But thankfully there wasn't. Were there deaths? I don't know that a lot of people died. But I know there were injuries. We talk about this on PCC all the time about the idea of meritocracy in art and entertainment. And that's a funny place to talk about it because the stakes are very low.

Certainly your favorite movie franchise might get ruined if the wrong person gets hired. But come on, if there's like a couple of industries where you should absolutely hire on merit, let's make it the airplanes and the doctors. Oh, for real. I remember seeing an ad once for LASIK eye surgery. It was like, buy one, get one done, get the other one.

If there's one place where you pay full price, it's your LASIK eye surgery. That's what I'm saying, dude. I'm not shopping for something like that. I'm not bargain shopping my LASIK. No way. Tim Pool says this. He's like, if I'm in a burning building, I want my local fireman to be this big hulk of a man. I want him to be burly. I want him to be seven feet tall

because I know I'm getting pulled out of that building, right? It's the same thing goes with Boeing. You are hauling hundreds of people, thousands of feet in the air. We need the best possible person to be flying those planes, to be working on those planes, to be repairing them. Every single part of an airport needs to have the best people in those jobs. I mean, raise your hand if you don't take a little look into the cockpit to see if you can see two white elbows sticking out.

No, my logic, we were talking about this before the show, I said my logic is like, look, I just know that I'm not special and I will never die in such an interesting way. That's my logic. So whenever people are scared on the plane, I'm like, you are statistically more likely to die in a car crash anyways,

and then I ruin it for everyone. Yeah, now no one's excited for the plane to go down anymore. No, this is, it's a thing. We actually did a cartoon a while ago. It was almost, I think it was over a year ago at this point, but it was just like when the pilot's an affirmative action hire.

And it's a goofy one. But the general idea, which I think we can all agree to, is there are certain positions we should be especially concerned about DEI with. Like when it comes to an industry where a mistake can kill hundreds of people. Air traffic controllers. Or losing my luggage. Or losing your luggage. No, but even that, like, why should you have to lose your luggage just because somebody decided that certain people have a good skin color

and that people with the good skin color have to be put in the positions that people with the bad skin color didn't deserve? It's just ridiculous. Give jobs on the basis of merit. They're going to bargain down. You can make the single passenger planes, but you can't make the multi-passenger planes. Or you going to bargain down. You can make the single passenger planes, but you can't make the multi-passenger planes.

You can make the Cessnas. You can't make actual jets. Because there's too many people in the jets. I still can't get over the astronauts stranded in space. Not stuck. They're stranded. Going stranded. Two human beings in outer space. Do they have enough ice cream?

What are they eating out there? They're on the International Space Station. They stranded two human beings in outer space. Do they have enough ice cream? What are they eating out there? They stranded two human beings in space. They stranded two human beings in space, and they are investigating, I think there's at least six investigations

against SpaceX, or maybe it's Elon Musk companies, but there's multiple federal investigations of SpaceX, the company that's going to successfully retrieve those people. So they're not like floating.

They're not just like... No, they're not in space. I mean, they're floating inside the ISS. It's not like the Sandra Bullock movie. Maybe they were playing Among Us and they just kind of... They got to vote. They got their votes out of there.

Did you see that? They were able to vote? Yeah, they were able to vote. Like, trust us. They're like, trust us. They voted for Kamala. Definitely. No, dude. They just dropped him in space. but that is a really good point yeah all these federal investigations into elon

whose company is actually saving these astronauts because the federal government gets a pass for everything and this is why it's like so transparent that we just should not be giving more obligations the federal government because who investigates the government when they do something wrong the government like i listen i want for there to be a legal environment where the people we trust with important functions can be investigated fairly when they do something wrong. The government's not going to get a fair investigation, right? These—it's full of political activists at this point who are only going to go after their enemies.

Have you seen the photos of like the SpaceX teams or the new Twitter teams? Like this is—I'm not even joking here. Like it's a diverse team. It's a diverse team. And it's like, he didn't force that. He's getting the best people for the job and it's still diverse. Like, huh, America's diverse.

Who would have thought? You don't need to shoehorn people into these positions. But it's probably like not diverse in the right ways to the right percentages. And most importantly, it's not diverse in a way where he's submitting to them and obeying to them, right? There was a picture of Twitter,

I believe it was trust and safety, which has been, I believe it's been totally dismantled and is no longer an actual department. But the trust and safety team, they considered it diverse and it was almost exclusively women. And they called that diverse

because men had for so long been in these positions. So because men had been in these positions for so long, now we needed to have women totally controlling these positions so that way you were taking the past and you're making it right for past offenses. That's not diverse. Yeah. That's not diverse at all. Take that man and it's it's also a terrible idea because clearly it was not beneficial to x or to you know honestly to any company well i remember when black panther was being made there

was a post from some publication there was a picture of the cast and they were all black and it was like the most diverse cast in film history. I'm like, what do you think the word diverse means? What do you think that means? Well, I mean, they're saying the quiet part out loud. Yeah, exactly.

Which diversity means no white people. Exactly, exactly. No white people. That's right. I mean, it is a terrible development that this has become the situation where the safety of people in airplanes comes second to the safety of the feelings of people that would be, I don't know, reading an article

about who works at a place or, you know, the feelings of people that apply for a job. I mean, again, we said this, but the people that are flying planes, the particularly the people that are working air traffic control, that if I understand correctly, that is a, a really, really stressful and difficult job. But those people should be the best of the best. They should be clearly qualified. I don't want someone that got through by the skin of their teeth.

You know, I don't want someone that, you know, is second best. If there's someone that's better at the job, then they should have the job. There shouldn't be any kind of, there shouldn't be anything other than the best and people that are clearly qualified. And to do anything else is not just doing a disservice to the people that are actually qualified, but you're putting lives on the line. We got to this point because of NPC behavior, right? Boeing saw all these other companies, and it's like, it's okay if Target has a DEI program,

but when you keep going up the chain and it gets to Boeing, where real lives are at risk, like, that's the issue. That's the issue. And just like you said, Tim, I'm just going to kind of reiterate what you said. The best – it should not be controversial. The best people should be in the job, especially when human lives are at risk. You risk destroying this whole industry of race hustlers who are various consultants and they work for universities. The consultant class is the one that needs to be abolished more than anything. And it also does a

disservice to those that fall into those jobs that were already diverse. So the ones who are good at their jobs, who got their on-merit are now second-guessed, and that's not good for anybody because that fosters bad relationships between human beings. I mean, I think

everyone's probably fairly aware of the fact that in 2009, 2008, there human beings i mean i think everyone's probably fairly aware of the fact that like in 20 2009 2008 there was a general consensus in america that race relations had never been better that that we were kind of like you know we were like yeah i think that we kind of you know we don't we we're not really that racist society anymore we we have some some black marks in our society in the history in our history but we kind of really put a lot of effort into moving past it. And I think that, and this is both, you know, black people and white people were kind of of the opinion.

Yeah, I think, you know, things are much better. There were still, of course, going to be racist people and bigotry and stuff, but it wasn't the norm. No one thought that it was the norm anyway and then by 2013 2014 it has just all gone to shit you know like where people were just like oh race relations have never been worse um thomas soul said yeah i'm going to paraphrase the quote but thomas soul said america has a supply and demand problem now with racism yes right everyone expects to see it everywhere and it's just not that common it's just not that come people embrace their differences we laugh about it we joke about it especially on this show.

It happens all the time. Social media has done irreparable damage to this. Not just social media in general, but the news understands that there's a lot of money to be made off of it. There's a lot of money to be made off the headlines that cover these types of things. And in the attention economy, you're not looking for the ethical way forward you're looking to make the money which is why they focus on donald trump so much they know he draws clicks they know he makes the money they understand that the same is true for discussing race yep yep so uh i think we're gonna go to uh super chat so smash the like button uh share the show

with your friends and uh go on over to timcastast.com and join up and become a member. Because not tonight, but normally, Monday through Thursday, we do the after show where things get a little spicy. And, you know, we can say what we really think. Say bad words. Well, say bad words, but also ideas that, you know, YouTube would frown upon. And we don't really have to worry about it over there. So, yeah, share it with your friends. So let's see.

We're going to do some super chats, huh? Clint Torres says, howdy people. Howdy, Miss Chrissy. Did you say Clitoris? It's close. Very close. Clint Torres. Oh.

Close enough. What's up, Clint? The yellow is for you. He says, howdy, Miss Chrissy. The yellow is for you. I assume that it's the- I'm a Latin king. What's up, Clint? The yellow is for you. He says, howdy, Miss Chrissy. The yellow is for you. I assume that it's the- I'm a Latin king. That's why.

We just go down the list here? Yeah. Okay. Let's see. Whatever ones stand out. Just read the ones that are about you, Phil. That's all you got? Clint Torres says, Phil, go to the gym.

But I'm busy, Clint. I'm here. I have to help out and pull my weight. Let's see. Blav Kayser. Tim has trapped Seamus, broken his spirit, neutered him, and now he has

dominion over him. I don't know if that's actually true. It's true. Look, he left. Do you think it's true? He's gone. Seamus is gone. He left his laptop. He just ran out of here. Actually, no. If you look, Seamus has three bottles of water and I think he's gone. Yes, that explains it more than anything. Three bottles of water. Seamus with the bladder buster.

I too am leaking, but in a different way. I have to pump. Let's see. Silver Serpent says 7.42pm I'm not sure what that is that's just no chat no message oh okay well thank you Kelly says smash the like button

and share the show with your friends you're right Kelly's right you should smash that like button or what do you do on PCC gently tap the like button you or what do you do on PCC? Do you gently tap the like button? You're not so rude. Caress it. I wouldn't say fondle it. That's just rude. Go to jail

for that stuff. Kelly says vote early equals big peepee, and that is true. If you vote early, big peepee. If you don't vote, small peepee. If you don't vote at all, no peepee. If you don't vote, small pee-pee. If you don't vote at all, no pee-pee. Even more true. Even more true.

Joey Giggle says, devil's advocate, the reason Kamala will win is because of early voting. They know how behind ahead they are in key areas, and now the shadow campaign has enough time to manufacture votes needed and or other shenanigans i don't know if i think that's true um i do think that the shadow campaign is going to do all they can to uh adjust things i i'm not sure how successful it will be i think that the i do think that the 2020 election was unique because of how novel the whole voting with covid and stuff was um but i don't know if they're going to be able to replicate that what do you what do you think yeah it's also why they say there needs to be a blowout right like at least when i was growing up playing when i was your job isn't it or hairdo blowout when i was growing up playing sports the idea was like if, isn't it? It's a blowout. When I was growing up playing sports, the idea was like, if you lost by one run,

you have nobody to blame but yourself, right? Because you need to win, so you need to get everybody involved and get up out and vote, because if it's something that can be taken on such small margins, that's because you didn't do your job. You didn't get things done. Or five unearned runs, Yankees. Exactly.

So happy for Freddie Freeman there. So happy for Freddie Freeman there. So happy for Freddie Freeman. I am a Red Sox fan. I was going to bring the football reference in. A lot of people complain about that one bad call the ref made, but you had a whole game. You had four quarters, a whole hour to make a difference, just like you said.

You can't come down to just one thing didn't go your way. And it doesn't matter if you think Trump's ahead by miles. Remember, Super Bowl 51, Patriots were down by 25 points or something like that. 28-3. 28-3. They were down by 25 points at the half,

and then they came back to win. Sigh up to say that you're ahead. Act as if you're not. Never. And the thing that the Patriots got a lot of hell for was they would continue to absolutely pummel their opponents even when they were up. Like they got to the point where people were like, they're just being mean, blah, blah, blah. But that is the attitude that winners have. playing as you possibly can because you never can tell when someone's going to say

you know what, we're going to win this and go from three points to 34. And if you don't continue to pummel your opponent, they're going to leave you for their jujitsu team. By the way guys, that's also why Coach Riley was always right in the movie Mighty Ducks. Yeah.

So you can't sit back on your laurels if you think Trump's going to win. If you are anxious as I am I think you need to go out and vote. And if you are not

anxious like I am then you need to go out and vote. So make sure you get out there and cast your votes. Let's see. Super chats.

Super chats. You're doing a great job though. Well thank you. You should have worn the beanie over your hat. Maybe next time. I own a beanie of my own. Maybe next time I'll bring mine.

Next time I have to fill in. Peter O'Hawks, I think is what it says. Go Hawks. Peter Go Hawks. My wife and I are trying to flip Washington State. We both just voted Trump. Everybody that we know did too. Trump 2024.

Fight. Vote, vote, vote. Well, I agree. Vote, vote, vote. What was it, Portland, where early voting is like favoring conservatives right now? I think we just talked about that the other day. See, PSYOP. Nobody believes that.

It's nuts. That's good. That's what we need to do. It would be wonderful. And of all the places that have historically been left-leaning and might actually change or whatever, I think Portland is actually high likelihood because Portland put up with a lot of crap in the Summer of Love. And it's not typical for leftist anarchists to get out and vote. So maybe the people of Portland are like,

I don't want to deal with more of the riots from the left. Maybe the people of Portland are like, you know what? We're tired of your shenanigans, firebombing leftists. They're sick of replacing the same windows over and over. I never have faith that that makes any changes. Look, Minnesota went through the same thing in COVID, and I don't buy for a second that Minnesota is going to change either. I mean, I'm not saying that I know.

I'm just pontificating here, you know, based on the conversation that we're having. So let's see. Sergeant Peanut says, please watch Rooster Fighter anime trailer. It's a real anime being produced and similar to the new music video okay yeah if you have cock-a-doodle-doo if you guys haven't checked it out go watch the new music video from tim cast on uh i think it's uh trash house records right um records halloween song check it out it's kind of a halloween song but it's it's a it's a really cool song it's a really cool song.

It's a bit of a departure from the stuff that they've done historically. A bit of a dance kind of bop feel. Is that why there was a question earlier in the week

about what is a song that feels Halloween to you but isn't Halloween? Like when we were on PCC? Somebody asked what is a song that feels like

a Halloween song to you but isn't a Halloween song? Thriller? No, never mind. I mean that song that feels like a Halloween song to you, but isn't a Halloween song? Thriller? No, never mind. I mean, that's technically not a Halloween song. That's just a horror movie song. The music video makes it so. Did you see Mariah Carey's video today?

Yeah. So it starts as a Halloween thing, but then it shatters and it becomes her Christmas song. She makes one of those now every year. Time to thaw her out. Thaw her out every year. 30 years old, that song is. I love that song. It's so good.

Wow. Jason Dixon says, whoa, where's Tim? I believe he's on the highway somewhere. He is en route to Nashville. He's just napping under the table. He's not taking the Cybertruck? I saw the Cybertruck out there. I don't know.

Take the Cybertruck. I think that, I don't know. I think that... I don't know. I'm not sure. I mean, if it were me, maybe I would, but I'm not sure what his whole deal is because he's got the whole portable studio that he's bringing with him.

He's going to do some stuff, content tomorrow, if I understand correctly. So I don't know. Maybe it could be that doing that stuff with the Cybertruck is difficult. You should do it in the Cybertruck should use content in the cyber truck look man I I think that's probably a cool idea but I'm not Tim so he can do what he wants to do um Grotty says all that remains cast well just one guy from all that remains so

no I think he means this is all that remains of the normal could be leftovers don't don't say that one oh they're always gonna try and get you don't say that one someone should be something says uh breaking ron paul tweets he would would accept Elon's offer to join the Doge office. This is huge. Is that real? Yeah, I looked that up. He said he'd be open to joining Elon and help out with the administration. I mean, look, I love Ron Paul.

I imagine it would be only part-time because Ron Paul is like something, you know? So we need Ron Paul to, uh, to take it easy because we don't want him to be, uh, we don't want him to keel over. Same thing with Thomas soul. Yes. Thomas soul is another guy that, you know, I, I absolutely love his, uh, his, his opinions and his brain, but, uh, he he's earned the rest. That's also true.

No, it's true. It's like at some point you got to let the guy guy chill. But Tom, just such a brilliant mind. Yeah. MBJ says PhilCastLive. I don't know that we're going to go with that moniker. ShimCast and BrimCast, they did that, and I think that if there's going to be a name for when I fill in, it's not going to be the PhilCast.

I think we're going to go with something else. Probably not actually any specific name. We've got to come up with something. I like not actually any specific name. Maybe. We'll see. Let's see. Grandlaws says

Chrissy Mayer, FNT in the house. Yes, Friday Night Tights. Every Friday. Oh, Friday Night Tights, okay. 4 p.m. on Nerdvotics channel. It's a very good show. It's about superheroes? Great.

Yeah, superheroes. Oh, okay. I didn't know if it was like a fashion show or something. Oh, no. It's like culture, film, TV, chats. Lululemon. Yeah, just complaining about Lucasfilm. I mean, there's a lot to complain about.

D Grizz says, Philcast IRL. Let's go again. Oh, geez, there's a lot of those now. Yeah, I don't think we get to decide. I've been watching the chat all show, and Philcast has kind of become a thing. It's a Phil good. It's like a nickname.

You don't get to pick your nickname. Yeah, it's true. In fact, the more you like it, the less likely it is to stick. True, true, true. So maybe. Nima says, Phil, please do a scream for Philcast. We'll do that at the end. Robert G. Smith says, Philcast, started nervous.

Don't need to win us over, dude. Be Phil that remains now that Tim bailed on us. Well, Tim didn't bail. He has other things to do. And considering how much the man works, it's my privilege to step in and help him out. Kodiak Anderson says, you're killing it, brother. We appreciate you, Phil. Cheers, man.

Thank you very much. You filled in for him. I did. Oh, that's got to be how it is. That's got to be how you do it. We could. We'll see what happens. Nunya B. wild how it seems phil

is a nervous host to start when he's a rock star love it when phil is on cooler to see host but when new album uh you know i i'm not announcing new album uh new song in just a couple weeks but not a new album yet new album album is still a little time left. But keep your eye out. There will be another All That Remains song coming in the next couple weeks. How does it compare hosting IRL versus getting on a stage in front of thousands of screaming fans? Well, I mean, I'm a little more used to doing the shows. I mean, I know what I'm going to say.

I know kind of how to interact with the crowd um would it help if you signed my boobs would that make you more comfortable i i would but i'm afraid that i get shot in the face with milk or something this is my nice t-shirt so um no but i mean it's it's you know just trying to know the the scripts and stuff i didn't didn't we didn't have any kind of like actually listed out stuff like as soon as it gets into the conversation, it's a lot easier. All that stuff at the beginning, the monologue. Yeah, you want to make sure that you get the stuff that you got to talk about listed and et cetera, et cetera. And I think that I got most of it.

I probably didn't say smash the like button and share the show with your friends enough. But, you know, we'll go ahead and get that. I will say, when Tim left, he didn't give us the script for this episode, which, as you guys know, that every episode, we do have a dedicated writing team that writes just, like, a big ol' stack of scripts that we have to memorize. Everybody earlier was, like, lying about podcasts

being completely off the cuff. Everybody's just saying whatever they want. No, no. We got this whole script we gotta remember. Deep state hoax. Yeah. Yes, indeed. Which we're comfortable with, I think. Gunnery Game says,

so Michigan just found over 160K duplicate ballots. In 2020, Biden carried the state by about 150K votes. Looks questionable to me. Everything is questionable in my opinion.

Amen. So, this is why what's the Looks questionable to me. Everything is questionable in my opinion. This is why the Help America Vote verification was so important, why Tim was talking about it so much and seemed like no one else cared. Is this exactly? He's like, whoa, this is weird. Why are they purging 30,000? They can't verify these voters. This was happening in all the states.

And we've been talking about this since April. And I don't really, I don't know of any other influencer or, you know, news site talking about it. And it leads to this, you know, like, whoa, what's going on here? What's going on indeed? Let's see. Miso Trash says put a girl on. Excuse me. Hello.

I'm here. Miss Mary says, my daughter and I voted today. Trump 2024. Well, that's wonderful to hear. We like to hear it. Let's see. Americish 11 says, respectfully, Tim needs to prepare better for debates. Sam Cedar got under his skin and ruled him this morning.

Tim is usually better at explaining points than he was this morning. I mean, look, man, Sam Cedar is pretty slimy and I was watching it. And I think that Sam Cedar was, had come, you know, with the intention of trying to get under, under his skin more than actually trying to get any kind of productive conversation. Sam was here to get clips. That's what he wanted to get. And so he may have got them. Like I said, I watched the beginning of it. I didn't watch the whole thing, but I will be watching it later.

I imagine that it was mostly just Sam being the kind of snaky kind of guy that he is. Yeah, I saw the first hour or so of it. Maybe not even that much, but I saw a good chunk of it. And, you know, of course, you know, Tim's not as good of a debater as, say, me. Did you say that you are a master? Oh, come on. I'm really enjoying Chrissy. I actually will say, as far as the conversation went,

it didn't, I certainly would not say Tim got rolled. It felt really calm. I thought, I was like, oh, this might be a shit show. It kind of didn't seem like the energy was even that high for the hour that I saw, at least. It didn't even seem like it was getting crazy and aggressive. Now, as soon as Sam came on on he tried to go into drama which i was glad tim called him out for he's like tell you're having me on your show but you've said i'm blacklisted from your show then he played clips of tim saying he's blacklisted from other people's show which is not what he

claimed him said and it was like all right so that's this is obviously not like a productive conversation thus far but it wasn't it didn't really feel like a debate. It would have been kind of hilarious if Tim was like, you're right, and just stopped the show. Oh yeah, you're right. Ejection button. You can't be here. I will say from sitting in the room,

since I produced the show this morning, sitting in that room for three hours, it seemed like Tim was genuinely trying to have a conversation and a debate about ideas and Sam was trying to say, just trying to drive home, ha, I'm right. Without actually having the debate. There was one thing that really annoyed me.

Sam's here. Well, no, no, no. So what happened was as they're having the conversation, they were talking about the death penalty and Tim said, well, I don't think it should be up to the state to determine who lives and who dies and then sam says well i just don't think it should be up to any human to determine who lives and who dies and then tim starts listing off situations like self-defense where a person does determine who lives and dies and sam goes like well i don't know what that has to do with the death penalty it's like wait a minute no you're

the one who just said you don't think anyone regardless of whether we're talking about the death penalty or the government should decide who lives or dies. And it was frustrating listening. Like, wait, how did no one call him out for that? How did nobody notice that? I will say, I do thank Sam for coming onto the show. A lot of people on the left refused to come on, so I really do appreciate you

coming down. And he had like a 4 a.m. flight to get here and then had to leave right after, so he had to jump through a lot of hoops to make it happen and i appreciate that so thank you sam um but yeah if you guys want to check out the show go over to the tim pool channel on youtube it's up uh it's up there now yeah 100 i think it's good he can't i like that he gave tim the hat too is it on the uh the spotify as well now because i was i was looking for that because in my new car i can't listen to youtube videos i was trying to i wanted to listen to it on the drive home but uh yep you can also find it on your favorite podcast platform, Spotify, Apple,

Google. Uh, I think there's one I'm missing, but yeah, it's on a YouTube and Spotify and all those podcast platforms. So yeah, I, like I said, I haven't gotten a chance to finish it yet. Would you, would you say that's mostly your assessment of how the rest of it goes? Is there anything crazy I missed? The fireworks happen around after the two-hour mark. After the two-hour mark. Which also is funny enough because that's when the real heated debate happened with Andrew Wilson and Tim. And it seems like that third hour, something happens in that third hour. Everybody can get along for two hours, but by the time that third hour starts, I'm done.

You can get along with anyone for two hours, yeah. The abortion debate. I'm hungry. I want to get the hell out of here. If you give everybody a snack at about an hour and 30 minutes, then they'll go ahead and be fine for the rest of it, but it's a little longer. Let's see. Tim should give out sliced apples to everyone. Hard-boiled egg.

Someone come out with little apple slices. What is it, ants on a log? In a juice box. That's what this place needs is a mom making snacks. Yeah, I'm for it. Vulture 1066 says, is Tim busy digging Sam down in the yard? No, Sam has left. He brought his candy.

Did he actually do that? I saw Tim tweeted that. I wasn't sure if he was trolling. He brought candy? He brought a big old bag of candy, but in my Reese's cup, I found a katana. Did he actually bring candy? Razor blades in the apples. I knew it. That was nice of the fella to bring some candy for everybody.

Phone Caller Man 2 says, first Timcast, then Spoonstealer Cast, then Brimcast, and now finally All That Cast. All That Cast is good. Villain is too good, though. All That Cast.

All That was a Nickelodeon show, I'm pretty sure. It was. It was. Nick says... And you don't want to... Yeah, sorry. That's all right. Nick says Tim needs a good old spanking live on camera.

No. Certainly not that kind of show. That's not needed. Tim doesn't need it. We don't need it. Nobody needs that. Not it. Yeah, definitely.

Everyone does. Kim doesn't need it. We don't need it. Nobody needs that. Not it. Yeah, definitely. The Dude Abides 95 says, Phil, can you team up with Nick the Fat Electrician in a culture war against two predominant communists? If the commies chicken out, you guys could still roast communism. You know, I love the Fat Electrician's content. He is an absolutely stellar storyteller he is hilarious uh so if you don't uh if you don't follow him you should follow the fat electrician

on youtube he's got some he tells military history and and it's there he's he's a great storyteller so you should check him out uh lord seeping says it's the first cast that remains IRL, although it's a that too dark of a name considering the recent layoffs. I'm not touching that one. Too soon, they say. Darun Albain says, if women are outvoting men,

but Raw are winning the early vote, does that mean raw are winning the Republicans? Oh, ours, ours. There we go. Yes. If Republicans are winning the early vote, does that mean Republicans are winning the women vote? I mean, hopefully I would love to see that the people that are doing the early voting are all excited to vote for Republicans. But regardless, you need to get out and vote, especially if you're, you know, voting for Donald Trump. Get out there. Wait in line. I know there's some shenanigans people have been concerned with in Pennsylvania. There's a long waits.

It's still warm. It's going to be fairly warm this weekend. I don't know if they're going to be voting on the weekend, but get out there. It was warm this week. So even if you had to stand outside in the, in the, you know, in the, in line, it was, it was at least comfortable. You weren't freezing. So get out there and make sure you vote. Don't let a old Donnie down. Finally, climate change does something for us. Right? Let's see. Mark Jr. says, do men show out on election day? I think so. Love the show and Shimcast forever, hopefully.

Hopefully all is okay with Tim. Love you all and thank you all. Everything is fine with Tim. He is just going to do some stuff on the way to Nashville. We have a big, big week ahead of us. So he's just kind of getting ahead of it all. Yeah, it makes sense. Like, there's nothing wrong or anything. He said, I need to go out for a drink.

He's boozy. I gotta deal with that. He's not drinking Bud Light. Of course not. Not after that Sam Seder interview. But I do think, to the question that the Super Chatter had, I mean, I believe it's possible men vote more on Election Day. I don't know, but I'm just pretty sure overall women tend to vote more than men, which is why, fellas, you got to get out there. Because from what I understand, Harris does lead a bit with women, men.

You got to get out there and vote. Got to get out there and vote. If all the women are voting, who's making the sandwiches? The men are at home. If you don't go out and vote, you are staying home making sandwiches for your wife or girlfriend. That's what's happening. If you're not going out and voting,

that's what I'm going to assume about you. You're not a patriot, and you're making the sandwiches. You're a sandwich maker. Small peepee. Small peepee. Let's see. TechBear says, torn between watching this or a Jason Richardson live stream? Jason Richardson is great, man.

I mean, I understand if you want a little break from politics, go watch Jason. But I mean, you should watch this later because it'll be on YouTube. I'm not sure if Jason's streams stick around. I assume he's streaming on, hopefully he's streaming on YouTube and not on Twitch. But regardless, you can watch both of us at some point. Kelly K. Jeffrey says, Tim, congrats on the new edition. We'd like to add all the fit.

All would like to add. It is fitting that the election is on November 5th. Remember, remember the 5th of November. We will pass that message on to Tim. I promise. What happens on the 5th of November We will pass that message on to Tim I promise What happens on the 5th of November? That's the election day But also Remember Remember the 5th of November Is from V for Vendetta

Which was, it's funny Guy Fawkes Yeah, Guy Fawkes when he wanted to install A Catholic theocracy in England So it's funny that there's all the anonymous people Wearing Guy Fawkes masks Yeah, it's Man, that movie got it wrong Was that anonymous people wearing Guy Fawkes masks. Yeah, it's – Man, that movie got it wrong.

Was that Alan Moore? I Fawkes with that. Alan Moore. Well, I know that the – I'm pretty sure the author is an anarchist, and all of the people who worship Guy Fawkes are these Reddit-style atheists. It's like, no, dude, he's trying to install Catholic theocracies, not your ally. Yeah. Sam Uriah said, you get a c minus on cedar this morning tim you were right but you gave in not fighting him on the crime stats especially the defunding affecting states

that set the pace for the rest of the convo on cedar's terms well you know it's got to pick your battles they went over a lot of different stuff like yeah and then there's a lot of times where one thing will become the two hour show and that's you don't want that you know they wanted to have a variety of topics to talk about and Sam gave him a bag of candy before he came that was his plan all along

Tim was gonna keep going then he saw the candy he's like ugh gotta be nice D Grizz says, I firmly believe Phil is all that remains to host the most popular live political show on the internet. This could be beard cast.

I mean, it could be. We've got some beards. It's true. I shouldn't have shaved mine. DJ Mederos says, remember, you can vote your way into socialism, but you have to something your way out.

From George Orwell, I think you all understand what we're talking about here. And I'm not going to say it just because, you know, YouTube is cranky. XLBXButcher says, I want to marry that ginger. I think he's too late, isn't he? Yeah, just about a year too late.

Next time. Next time. Next time. Too slow. Gage Newby says, as a ginger, I got to call Chrissy a trans ginger. I am a trans ginger.

They have like touch of red, Like they've got touch of gray They do sell like red spray Like if you're getting roots Like I don't have grays but like you could spray I don't know Darius Albain says What we know about Nazism was only allowed To be analyzed from the viewpoint of

Everything they said was a lie That is why people think Nazism is from the right when everything they did was leftist, but focused on race. Uh, you know, I don't know that I want to engage in that argument right now, but, uh, I do, I am sympathetic to the idea that totalitarian governments tend to be totalitarian governments that are not, that are not theocracies tend to be fromitarian governments that are not that are not theocracies tend to be from the uh the left um but nazism was was a little was was kind of unique because there was a lot of traditionalism that they were trying that they were at least hearkening back to so but anyways well i think a main key point to remember is you absolutely can't have right-wing

philosophies and i think many of them even demand that you have uh smaller more limited more local governments i mean leftism requires totalitarianism to function because it's so contrary to human nature that somebody has to be enforcing the new normal policy's so good they have to mandate it exactly exactly uh amos Moses says, Timcast hosted by Phil is filtering out the BS coming from Shimcast. I don't know why people are stirring the pot like we got some beef. We don't have any beef. Dude, they just want to make a rivalry between us. We have no beef. There's zero beef.

There's such little beef, we're vegetarian over here. We're vegan. Exactly. Bill Gates synthetic meat. Violet Brandini says, Easily my favorite Timcast episode panel. Love you, Chrissy meat Violet Brandini says easily my favorite Timcast episode panel love you Chrissy thank you let's
