The drone mystery has been solved, ladies and gentlemen.
And of course, I hate to break it to you, the story is rather boring.
The government was doing technology development, that's it.
An Air Force base got a contract, they were flying some drones around, people panicked.
The documentation was all there for the public for eight years, I think six years.
And the local airports and FAA were giving out warnings on these things.
There's no mystery, just bad journalism and I guess people being bored.
So, I mean, I don't know.
Maybe there's something else to it.
Maybe it's a cover.
I doubt it.
It looks like we got the documents now and no one is surprised to find.
It's not a story i think
i think the issue is that christmas falls on a wednesday and new year's falls on a wednesday
and so everybody knows they're getting two weeks of vacation and so this month is just downtime for
everybody i i guess now that we've just ruined the whole mystery in the story for you're probably
gonna leave but uh we'll talk about that and more i mean you've got a u.s senator saying shoot him
down you got trump saying something similar and now we're like they're ours
and it's just research duh it's kind of sad isn't it so we'll talk about that and uh luigi manjione
manjione has been charged with a with terrorism in the murder of the united health ceo uh liz
cheney could be investigated for witness tampering. And then, I don't know, like nuclear war because Ukraine killed a Russian general who was in charge or oversaw nuclear programs.
We got a lot to talk about.
But, man, I got to tell you, today is probably the slowest news they've ever seen in my life.

Sam Goodwin. Tim, thanks for having me. Good to be here. Who are you? What do you do? I came here from St. Louis today, my hometown,
and I got to admit, I was coming out here. I wasn't quite sure where it was going,
but it's a great setup here. Yeah, middle of the woods. What do you do?
So I run my own speaking business. I speak full-time, conferences, conventions,
mostly corporate work. I recently put out a book, which maybe I'll talk a little
bit about, but that's what's taking up my time today. Right on. Well, thanks for hanging out.
Good to have you. Raymond's here. Hey, everybody. I'm Raymond G. Stanley, Jr. I do things here at
TimCast. I am the resident blue collar and Marine Corps veteran, and I'm excited to talk about slow
news today. Mr. Phil. Hello, everybody. My name is Phil Labonte.
I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal band
All That Remains.
I'm an anti-communist
and a counter-revolutionary.
Tim?
Here we go.
The big story from the Daily Mail.
To ruin all of your dreams,
to splash cold water
in the face of your exciting mysteries.
For all of the women
who like watching their true crime
or paranormal podcasts,
let us put that flame out.
Uncovered files reveal secret operation at the center of the drone invasion
and why the White House can deny it. Well, despite the fact it's a mundane story that's basically
very boring, rest assured the Daily Mail is going to try and make that headline a little
bit more sensational. The story is actually really boring. Official records show the Army has been
developing and testing counter-terror drones in New Jersey for years amid claims of a government
cover-up. A 2018 defense contract awarded $50 million in private robotics company to develop
craft capable of creating 3D maps of urban areas for a counter-weapons of mass destruction program.
The contract was given out by the Army's Armament Research, Development, and Engineering Center,
ARDEC, which is located at the Picatinny Arsenal in Rockaway, New Jersey,
where mystery drones were first reported last month.
Meanwhile, documents show the FAA issued an air restriction alert on November 21st,
prohibiting flights over the Picatinny Air Base for special security reasons.
The White House has claimed the drone sightings, which coincidentally began on November 18th,
are not a foreign adversary, pose no threat, and are not part of a U.S. has claimed the drone sightings, which coincidentally began on November 18th, are not a foreign adversary, pose no threat and are not part of a U.S. military operation.
Retired CIA intel officer Rudy Rodolfi told Daily Mail the FAA this FAA notice shows U.S. drone testing is happening in the area.
It's a warning for others to stay out of the area during those dates.
While the nature of the testing isn't specified, it's most likely the testing of payloads related to reconnaissance.
So I just that's it.
We've known since 2018 exactly what they're doing.
The FAA actually issued warnings over what they were doing.
And I got to say, maybe the reason the story happened is because journalists are lazy and going out of business.
And no one looked into it until now.
But there you go, friends.
Literally nothing is happening.
Is it right?
Give me some exciting.
You know, there's a conspiracy going viral about how the government was going to use
nuclear materials for a false flag as a means to create more lockdowns and scare people.
And I was like, this stuff never happens, dude.
I got to say, like, I'll take some And I was like, this stuff never happens, dude.
I got to say, like, I'll take some credit for predicting this, that it was likely some government testing thing that the drones have FAA like lights on them.
They're regulated properly.
And I think it's a combination of, yes, some technology testing from the military and then
a lot of mass hysteria.
I I've seen today these breaking points
and a couple other shows they had experts on,
journalists and experts.
They were really trying to break it down
and no one can actually say what was going on.
Everyone was in the dark.
And then it's been revealed
and we should have known this the whole time.
Someone in chat said,
LOL, Tim said it was a plane.
It was.
That's the point.
A bunch of the sightings were just airplanes flying over and people were filming them.
I watched a bunch of videos where people were posting on X or posting on like I filmed one of the drones and I'm like, that is a plane.
That is just a an airplane. There's a commercial 737.
You can clearly tell it's got the lights blinking and it is flying.
Well, some of them were not but okay so again just
just to to clarify we now have reporting that since 2018 they have been doing these drone
testings in this area and the fa actually issued an alert about the drone tests and so that's
probably what people saw in the first place panicked nobody bothered to look into it and
then mass hysteria took hold and people started filming airplanes and commercial drones.
That's a good one, yeah.
Elon posted that meme I saw.
New Jersey guide to aircraft identification and it's every single aircraft is a drone. that once things start being, you know, once there's a few people talking about something,
then more and more people are looking and start, you know, misidentifying normal aircraft,
which have flown over their heads thousands of times probably, and it's never been a thing.
But because curious drones are, you know, at the top of people's mind, they're like, oh, look, maybe
that's a drone because everybody wants to believe that it's something interesting, right?
Like the whole reason this stuff catches on is because everyone is like, maybe it's
maybe it's this this this secret thing.
It's intrigue.
It's interesting than my normal life, whatever.
I mean, it's the same reason that we watch dramas and stuff on watch these stories on tv and stuff um but as usual i think people
are bored yeah that's why true crime podcasts and mystery podcasts and it's why people like
conspiracy theories because life is routine it is mundane It is exactly what you thought it was.
World War III is not starting.
There's not a missing nuclear weapon from Ukraine.
Or how about this?
They backdated these fake reports.
Yeah, there you go.
To cover up that there actually is a drone crisis.
You know, when you want to believe,
you can come up with a story to make it.
Well, did you see those flat earthers who went to Antarctica?
I finally admitted the Earth's not flat.
No, did they?
Oh, how many of them were there?
And did they convince any other flat earthers?
Well, I don't know, but the video went massively viral where the guy was like,
yep, that's 24-hour sun.
Yeah, because they were supposed to go to the ice wall, right?
And they were going to prove, yeah.
And then they end up sitting there under the 24-hour sun,
and they're like, how is that possible
unless the Earth is round?
Sometimes when the government
says things,
it's telling the truth.
I know, it's shocking, but...
The Earth really is round.
But the government isn't telling us
the Earth is round.
It's just general humans did it.
Fair enough.
Fair enough.
But it is, you know,
the sun rises in the east,
sets in the west.
I wonder if...
It's a sphere.
I wonder if this is just,
you know, everybody went nuts over politics for a long time and it displaced pop culture. Yeah.
I wonder if now that Trump won and won the popular vote, Democrats are just spiraling.
There's no real mean opposition.
Everyone kind of agrees Trump was right.
And so now pop culture might just
become pop culture again yeah that would be awesome yeah that would be great i mean like we talk about
the the desire is to have the normal democrats you know isolate the the crazy leftists and stuff
um so it would be nice that if if nor became separated from politics, I would love to see it.
I heard someone – there's been a lot of people talking on the regular news, on Fox News and stuff like that, about how the big CEOs and stuff have gone, all been going to Donald Trump and kissing the ring and stuff and
you've got you know Joe Scarborough and you've got you know I think the Bezos and stuff and
there's been multiple people that have been going okay well we're gonna go talk to talk to Trump and
stuff and I think you know I've said before I think it's a good sign and it would be great
if this were you know if this were a sign that politics stopped being the thing that everybody was doing
and we could just hang out with people that have different politics and you know agree that we
don't have to agree but we can still be civil to each other one of the first segments we did on
this show was a review for sonic the hedgehog which one the movie the first one yeah okay okay
the movie yeah we talked about Skinwalker Ranch,
and it was generally just trying to hang out at night
and talk about whatever was going on.
And then it's 2020, the lockdowns start.
Yep.
And everybody becomes politics.
And then we get lockdowns for basically two years,
so everyone's just screaming politics.
Then you get the midterms.
Then you get the primaries and Trump's return.
And finally, the whole thing exploded on November 5th
with Trump sweeping, the Republicans winning everything.
And Christmas is so close,
everybody is just ready to be like, I'm a chill.
I mean, I like that.
But there are a lot of people who still don't think
that the Democrats will relent or let up.
That, you know, when we go on break.
So Friday's our last show.
We'll be at AmFest in Phoenix for Turning Point USA's year end.
It's our third year doing it.
I'm really excited.
I'm really grateful that Charlie Kirk has us every year.
It's one of the coolest things ever.
To do our last show of the year on stage in front of this massive audience of thousands of people is amazing.
And then we won't be back till January 6th, the day.
That's right.
The anniversary.
It's going to be.
And we're going to have Lecter and Guy and Richie McGinnis back, two veterans.
Oh, perfect.
Of January 6th.
Richie's coming back.
Yeah, he's coming back.
Yeah.
He's been on a million times, but he'll be back.
And and that will be the day they count the votes for Trump.
So I guess today was the day they certified Trump won.
Today was when they actually collected the votes
and they were all submitted by the states,
confirming that Trump is the winner of the election.
Now we'll see if Democrats throw a fit on January 6th.
But I guess I'm curious.
Some people have been saying that there's going to be a media collapse
across the board.
CNN is already facing its record low again.
We'll talk about that in a second.
But the argument is the entire media apparatus of independent media
has been built upon politics for the past four or five years.
So all of these personalities now have nothing to talk about.
What are they going to do?
There was a really great example, actually, um someone gave a critique of david packman
liberal guy i don't know if you guys know who he is where he basically took a mundane interview
with alina haba and then acted like it was really bad because he had nothing to talk about
he was like oh she said she embarrassed love was so bad. And it was like just
mundane, normal
interview hit.
And that's kind of the
bet is that the big spike
in viewership that everybody's been seeing over the past
couple of years and the growth of these channels,
everyone's going to immediately shift over to
like Aiden Ross or something
or Mr. Beast. And they're just going to be
like, yeah, don't need that anymore.
We're going to watch video games again.
And that's it.
It would, I mean, it would be great.
What's, you know, what's, what's your sense, Sam?
Do you, do you feel like the temp,
the temperature has changed since the election or is that something that
you're cognizant of or?
I mean, I think a little bit, I mean,
I'm pretty optimistic about what's ahead, but still a lot to, a lot to be be seen it'd be interesting to have richie back here on january 6th and see
what he has to say i know he was here last night he left his book here so yeah i was happy about
that oh then yeah um you know i mean like i said you know i mean i'm hopeful but i don't know
well i'm you know the argument people are making is they're like,
what are you going to do, Tim, when politics is not a thing?
We're going to talk about movies and stuff.
I don't know.
This is what we were doing before politics.
And then they forced us to do it.
And it is offensive.
Like I said, I've been saying this for years.
You know, like one of the first shows we were talking about was just like,
hey, Sonic the Hedgehog came out.
Like, let's chill and hang out.
We're friends.
And then politics took everything over.
I'm like, I have a political show.
It's in the morning.
It's always been the case.
It's not like the politics is what we desire to be talking about.
It's pop culture and stuff like that is what we're doing here.
Or just, you know, social commentary.
So there's always going to be the news to talk about.
Whether or not it's political news or not isn't necessary.
Let's jump to this story from the Post Millennial.
Disney's Pixar cut trans storyline from upcoming series says parents would rather discuss issue on their own terms.
You do not say.
When it comes to animated content for a younger audience, we recognize that many parents would prefer to discuss certain subjects with their children on their own terms and timeline.
Indeed.
They say after years of blah, blah, blah, Pixar's win-lose series saying that perhaps parents are blah, blah, blah.
Who wrote this?
Libby.
Come on, Libby.
Don't bury the lead.
Win or lose is a long-form series from Pixar.
The first animation studio is made.
It was meant to showcase a trans storyline that has since been quashed.
So we have this from Deadline.
Win or lose, transgender actress speaks out after Disney cuts her storyline.
Very disheartened.
I was exactly what they wanted to a T, and that's why it felt so right.
It just felt so right.
I immediately asked my mom if I could do it because it felt like if I don't do this, it
wouldn't make sense.
You know what I mean?
So it eventually scored the voiceover job for win or lose, which revolves
around a co-ed softball team in the middle school named the Pickles in the week leading up to their
big championship game. Stewart couldn't wait to share the news with her friends. And then they
canceled it because woke is broke and nobody wants to make this stuff anymore. So I'm wondering where
we go from here because it seems like all the big companies have gotten the message, Bud Light, Target. Now you've got Disney,
who lost a billion dollars. You got the Volvo commercial, got the Apple commercial.
Guys, it feels like the dam has broken. Or I'll tell you this. Before the election,
we didn't know what was going to happen. After the election election it is a snowball that was knocked off the cliff and by
now it is a 10-ton boulder of ice rolling down this mountain with disney canceling these storylines
and more and more companies basically saying we're not gonna do this woke stuff anymore
seems like absolute victory is is fast approaching i mean there's a lot of people that are really, really unhappy with the idea of corporations like Disney, you know, planting, essentially planting seeds in their children's head.
If your kid has inclinations to be gay or something like that, they're going to, you know, they're going to want to explore it.
And hopefully if you've got a good, good relationship with your kid they'll want to talk to you about it um but pixar you know putting this stuff into movies in in essence it's like
it's it's back to the old centering the margins and you really i don't understand why well i mean
it's a political ploy but you you should as a society we should not want companies
to be centering the margins we should want companies that produce content that's for
everybody that's not well specifically for people with you know with gender dysphoria with people
that are gay or if they stop doing it and just make content that is for everybody, including LGBTQ people, instead of only for LGBTQ people, they will make more money.
And if they don't, they will go out of business.
And, you know, I could give a damn.
One of the best things I think that's why we try so hard for was to get Trump, you know, to win.
Because once he won, since that day, man, since he won and and you got the mandate it's everything feels like
everything's changing for the better for us for mankind for culture for the world just that was
that was what we needed to get over the hump to get over the hill i feel like like a vibe shift
a lot of people that are like that were previously quiet i think even like hollywood and that whole
scene probably you can talk to this well phil um they kind of just i mean everyone's mad at them
saying oh you should be mad these people for like having been scared to come out of the woodwork before.
But now they feel emboldened and now they're willing to.
We shouldn't be like saying rebuking them and telling them off for coming out and standing up again.
So we should finally be like, yes, normalize it.
It's fine to like Trump.
It's totally normal.
You previously thought it was scary.
Now you've seen the numbers.
Now you've seen everyone vote for it.
It's fine.
Talk about it.
It's good for us. I think what we see here and what's been happening right now, there are a lot of people that are celebrating.
We did it.
We won.
You know, CNN's ratings are the worst they've ever been.
And, you know, the rise of independent media, it's the podcast presidency.
We are six months out, I guarantee you, from all these big networks hiring liberal pundits on massive salaries and putting billboards up in New York and dumping $20 million on YouTube to take this space away.
It is an ideal.
There is an ideology on the left.
And just because there has been a backlash against it from the average person doesn't mean that the left doesn't want to get back to pushing that ideology.
You know, if if they have a if there is a plan on the left to to have a certain segment of society be be the focal point and there's a pushback on it,
that doesn't mean that they're going to stop. That just means that they'll go ahead and they'll lay off for a little while and then they'll start pushing again maybe in a different different manner um but it's still going to be it's still
going to be the ideology that they want to see brought to fruition because there are people on
the left that are so ideologically possessed as that you can simp that you could say no that's a
religion you could easily mistake it for a religion when it when it comes to um you know
people that are that are looking for a restructuring of
society you know yeah you've been in a lot of places as well do you have like contacts that
have maybe observed this i'm sure that you maybe have people that are like you know in your life
that have maybe seen this happen in other countries because i've personally seen even in
other countries i know it's the american election but let's be honest like that's watershed for the
world for the planet um a lot of how do you feel about that? Have you seen anybody that's been talking about
it in any of your, of your spheres? Kind of related to that. Like one thing that I've learned
from, from my travels is that so many people, uh, despite everything that happens and there's all
these things going on, so many people still want to be American. And I think there's more, you know, before I've traveled to every country in the world,
there's more opportunity here than anywhere else.
And I think that a lot of people see it that way.
And so we've a lot of good things happen, still a lot of things to work out.
But that's one thing that I always think about is just the way that people still want to be American.
And I think a lot of that revolves around the opportunity that's here.
Totally. I mean, like a lot of the stuff. You lived in a lot of that revolves around the opportunity that's here. Totally.
I mean, like a lot of this stuff,
Singapore,
you've been around the world.
Yeah,
totally.
But I mean,
like all this stuff too,
is like,
it's like the,
they're cutting the train storyline and stuff like that.
They're kind of going back to like,
what is,
what is essentially saying it's okay to be American.
That used to be like,
not,
it was used to be,
yeah,
to be human literally,
but it used to be so uncool to say like,
Oh,
I like being American.
Like,
and we're like,
what?
Four years ago,
if you said,
Oh,
I like being American and all the lefties and Hollywood freak out being like, say, oh, I like being American. Remember, what, four years ago, if you said, oh, I like being American,
all the lefties in Hollywood freak out being like, what?
Oh, you like being a colonizer and all this nonsense?
It's nonsense.
Nobody wants to live in this world, man.
This is what we've been talking about for a long time.
People just want to go to the bar.
They want to order some wings.
They want to get ranch.
Blue cheese is gross.
No, no.
You guys are wrong.
And they want carrots, not celery, because celery is anti-food.
That's good.
And they want to watch a sporting event.
They want to watch UFC.
I want to watch UFC.
Some people watch football.
And we've been trapped in this world because the people who hate Donald Trump couldn't shut up about it.
And the media wanted to make money off of it. CNN literally hired a guy to do
entertainment when Trump came in to turn the whole news industry into WWE. And we're just over here
being like, how do we get back to, I don't know, watching a movie about a train with a face that
needs to discover what it means to be a train instead of a train that's gay. He's got to get
over that hill, that train, you know, it's gay he's got to get over that hill that train
you know it's working hard you know what i think i can i think i can i think i can go back to that
to being better yourself when did up come out geez that was uh what one time what year i'm looking
god 2011 someone googled the movie up and and and i'll be honest like that movie is actually not
good except for the first 10 minutes 2009?
yeah the beginning of it right?
yeah the beginning of it is one of the best movies ever but the rest of it is just kind of like
okay I guess
get off the balloons bro let him go
and I don't even remember the rest of the movie to be honest
there's like a mad scientist or something
that's trying to steal their house I have no idea
you know to your point
to your point about
people wanting to see be entertained and be able to escape from the day-to-day slog.
One of the really bad things about the politicization of everything was the fact that you couldn't escape.
It seeped its way into movies. It became such a part of pop culture where you couldn't watch television shows without having the message be shoved down your throat.
You can't watch movies.
And there are whole franchises that people have said, I don't want to watch that stuff anymore.
The Star Wars franchise has...
They ruined it.
They destroyed a lot of people.
They ruined a lot of people's interest.
Who was they, though?
The people that were writing the bad movies, Tim.
So you're talking about a dominant group of people in Hollywood who write movies.
Writers.
Writers.
See, I was trapping you in the corner.
Yeah, so I mean, the writers and the people that were ideologically possessed and believed that their job wasn't just to tell good stories, but was to tell people how they're supposed to think in these stories.
They wrote bad movies, and they destroyed properties.
I think it started off with you get some TV show in, like, the 2000s, and some producers, like, I have an idea to get us attention.
And what's your idea we're
gonna make a gay character and they're like oh that's risque you know like star trek the first
one you had ahura do the first interracial kiss on tv and oh that was a big deal you know back
then and they're like we could have that moment and then you basically get literally everybody
being like well every relationship in the show has to be gay.
Like, there's no, what was it?
You guys ever watch Jessica Jones?
No.
First season, yeah, yeah.
So like, there's a cop side character in it,
and they don't really mention his relationship status.
And on the last season, all of a sudden,
Jessica Jones has an employee who's trans,
and the cop is talking about his boyfriend. And I'm like, well, hold on there a minute.
Like, why did you have to just jam those things into a story where it didn't exist?
Jessica Jones didn't have a receptionist.
She worked by herself because she's antisocial with a drinking problem.
Now she has a transgender receptionist.
It's fine, I guess.
It's just OK.
And then the cop who's been helping her, all of a sudden he's having problems with his
boyfriend.
And I'm like, wait, why?
Why?
I just want to watch a show where the superhero jumps in the air and punches the giant lizard, okay?
You know, I deal with this stuff enough.
Yeah.
I made it day to day.
I'm not going to go to the movies and watch this stuff.
That's the sentiment that a lot of people, I think, have is why are you putting this stuff into the shows that I enjoy or into the you're
making the stories that that I enjoy about something that I have no reason to care about
because, you know, I'm not I'm not LGBT or whatever, you know. Yeah, I'd like to say we're
winning, but let's jump to the story from Deadline. And I'll start by saying this. First, let me read
the headline. Conservative documentary. Am I racist? Snubbed by Oscar doc voters despite claiming box office crown. I'll start by saying, you know, we've won a lot, ladies and gentlemen. Disney just announced, we were talking about in the previous segment, the cultural victories, we are charging ahead and we
need to make sure that we keep on doing this. But then you get this story. And I don't know if
anyone expected anything different, to be honest. Matt Walsh made one of the best comedies I've seen
in probably a decade plus. If you haven't seen Am I Racist, you need to, because despite them
calling it a political documentary, it's not really.
It's Matt Walsh playing a character where he wants to do the work and learn how to not be racist or be anti-racist, whatever. And it's slapstick comedy. I tell people like an example
of one of the jokes is that Matt Walsh is carrying a stack of plates and he trips and he drops them.
That's it. He doesn't preach anything. And they do. There's a really funny bit where everybody's seen this already. He convinces Robin DiAngelo to pay reparations to his black producer. And they show on screen how much money they paid her to do this. It's like fifteen thousand dollars. And then when she hands thirty five dollars over, the number goes down. It was really well done. But they weren't saying anything overtly political.
They were showing it to you and making fun of the whole scenario. I'm not surprised to see that
they submitted for the Oscars, as they should, because it is one of the most successful
documentaries in decades. And it was an amazing comedy. And they say that Am I Racist, the
controversial documentary that satirizes diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives failed to make the Oscar shortlist of nonfiction features today,
despite earning more money at the box office than any other documentary this year by far.
The film was directed by Justin Folk, featuring Matt Walsh going undercover to infiltrate DEI
seminars. Yes, but they're making it seem like it was a serious documentary. His character in the film, a caricature of himself,
is trying to do the work to be anti-racist.
There's a Matt Walsh fight scene.
You guys have seen it, right?
Yeah.
I missed that.
When they reenact Jesse Smollett with Matt Walsh
and he's fighting the Macabre.
Yes.
Now that the movie's been out,
I don't mind to spoil it.
But it's unsurprising to see in Hollywood, in these institutions, they are still trying to say no.
So what I'll say right now is we've had tremendous victories across the board.
We now have to entrench everything we're doing as the institution.
Now is the time where we have to— Forward the institution. Now's the time where we have to, we have to...
Forward the line.
Yes. And specifically, we need to, we need ubiquity. Matt Walsh and Daily Wire attempted
an Oscar. Makes sense. You want to infiltrate their institutions and say, hey, look, we played
by the rules. We made a documentary.
It made a lot of money.
It was the box office.
What's the problem?
Well, they say, we don't we don't want to have you because it's gatekeeping.
I tell you what you need now, because they're going to Democrats are going to do this.
Mark my words.
They've got to put up billboards and TV commercials for Matt Walsh's show.
You his regular show, his regular show.
Rumble needs to do this. Rumble needs to do this.
Daily Wire needs to do this.
We need to do this.
Everybody needs to be doing this.
I remember when I worked at Vice,
my cousin texted me
saying that she was watching Hulu
and then all of a sudden heard my voice
and looked up and saw me
in a Vice commercial.
Because Vice had done a big TV and digital
commercial run. That's ubiquity. They got ads and billboards put up in all of these cities.
And that tells people we are number one. We are the best. We are in control. We have the power.
Independent producers in these companies have not been been doing that. That's why I think
Am I Racist, which was a massive success because they
went into theaters. Yeah. And I was in a theater in D.C. in a deep liberal area and it was packed
with people laughing and watching this film. I'm like, this ubiquity is everything.
The people come into a movie theater and see the poster for Matt Walsh.
Daily Wire should be buying billboards in Times Square. It's not that expensive. They can easily
afford it. They should be putting up billboards in every major city. They should be buying digital commercials
on YouTube TV and other other cable channels. They should have and they've been doing this.
Don't get me wrong. They had commercials running on MSNBC. This ubiquity is ubiquity is where we
need to go next. Last, the Democratic machine, the uniparty machine, is going to turn around and say, why are we giving Rachel Maddow $25 million for 30,000 viewers when we could put $5 million into insert liberal YouTuber and then put billboards up everywhere and tell people that is the narrative you have to maintain.
When you're ahead and you have the opportunity to score, you keep scoring.
Amen. You keep scoring and you keep scoring and you run the score up
as lopsided as you possibly can.
And there are a lot of people that used to get mad
when the New England Patriots –
I was going to bring that up.
They would be ahead and they would keep just doing everything they could
to score and score and score and score.
People really got mad.
But if you look at the way that the Patriots played,
even when they were down, they fought like they were up.
They did the exact same thing.
It was the AFC Championship game, I think.
I forget which game it was.
But they were down by like 30 points game it was, but they were down by
30 points. Super Bowl, they were down
by Atlanta by 30 points at halftime.
It was the Atlanta. At halftime,
they were down by 30 points, and they
came back to win because they have the
attitude of when you have the opportunity
to score, you keep scoring.
If you're ahead, you keep scoring,
and that's how you make sure that
the people that you just got ahead of,
they don't come back.
Atlanta dropped the ball,
and they didn't keep shoving the ball down the Patriots' throat,
and the Patriots were able to come back because Atlanta dropped the ball.
When you're ahead, you have to keep scoring
because your opponents are not going to stop.
Just like Tim said the other other night at some point you know disney's going to dump a bunch
of money into this space and try to take over the space they're going to find that's why they're not
letting matt walsh in yeah the attitude of these people in hollywood right now are like
they they're winning they're making massively successful films music music. We need to reclaim the space. So they're in their mind,
it's hold the line. Yes, we see the success, but do not give them space. Yeah. They want six months
from now to recoup and reassess. They don't get rid of DEI. They rename it that Disney is recoiling
with like these these storylines because they know they're losing money crazy thing here is that uh disney apparently is losing viewers on disney plus and they're losing sponsors
because nobody watches any of the any of the stuff on there so you know i'm chilling and it's not
just like i mean obviously like the point of this is that they were they were shut out. But I saw that, I believe it was Billboard gave
Ronnie Radke's band,
F.I.R., I forget the name,
Falling in Reverse,
he gave them the Artist of the Year.
And Ronnie is outspokenly not woke.
He's very against the woke stuff.
And so one of the biggest bands
in the music industry right now uh or at
least in the hard rock industry is completely against the the message that's been coming out
of the entertainment industry for the past better part of the past 10 years or so so there are
victories that that are happening and there's a lot of people that are going to respond to that and say, you know what, the whole woke stuff, I'm over it.
But it took a grassroots effort to do that first.
It took people that were willing to take that risk.
You know, Falling in Reverse is a huge band right now, but six, seven years ago, and they've
been around for ages, six, seven years ago, they were playing clubs.
You know, they were playing venues that are a thousand, thousand caps, you know, and now they're,
they're, you know, selling out 16,000, 17,000 seat arenas. Um, but it's because they were ahead
of the curve and they were, they were, they're trendsetters, you know. So I think that that that the general population like we we kind of all feel it and see it.
Everyone's over hating America. Everyone's over the woke stuff.
You look at the way the businesses are responding and there's a lot of of energy and excitement about the future for the U.S.
How do Democrats respond to this? Right. They can? They can't keep doing what they're doing.
They can't just keep making these woke storylines
that nobody wants to watch where they're burning money.
They can't do these Dylan Mulvaney things
where they lose a third of their market share in a month,
but they have to do something.
They can't just agree with Trump.
Fetterman's trying it.
You know, come out publicly, you know,
publicly stating like, oh publicly you know, publicly stating
like, oh, you know, the Republicans, they
do okay. And
I think Democrats
went too far left and then he goes
to the Senate and he just votes on whatever Democrats want.
So he's publicly acting like
he's more moderate in understanding of the
right and the conservatives.
And then he's
boarding the line for Democrats.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I don't know that I have an answer.
I would like to see more moderation when it comes to the policy from the left.
I don't know that that's that we're going to get it.
I don't know what they have left.
Like they they're losing the middle class workers.
They're losing a lot of what their old basis.
And they're just now they have their small minority of fringe far leftists and or terrible policymakers. Yeah. Like who's the
base of the Democrat Party going forward? They got nothing. They got nothing. They're split.
Yeah, that's I'm not kidding. Let's let's let's pull the story up. I talked about it earlier.
Here you go from Fox News. Top Harris aide hypes radical activists who said America deserved 9-11
while plotting the future for Democrats.
House Democrat called Hassan Piker a poster child for the post-October 7th outbreak of anti-Semitism in America earlier this year.
Sure. But now you have a Harris aide saying that they need more.
Fox is really not happy with Hassan.
I'm glad they need more. Fox is really not happy with Hassan. I'm glad they aren't.
Let me just try and give you the statement from this Democrat without the flair.
I'll give you the Fox News flair in a second.
Quote, we need this whole thriving ecosystem.
Flaherty told Semaphore, it's not just Pod Save America, though I think we should have more of them.
It's not just Hassan Piker.
We should have more Hassan Pikers.
It's also the cultural creators,
the folks who are one rung out who influence the nonpartisan audience.
Those things all need to happen together.
So they're not, Fox says,
a top aide for Vice President Harris's failed campaign
recently called for more cultural voices
like vocal anti-America, anti-Israel Twitch star,
Hassan Piker, who previously faced backlash for saying America deserved 9-11.
Do the Democrats really want to hitch their wagon to someone that is anti-American?
And Hassan is openly anti-American.
He is clearly anti-American.
Would you call him anti-Semitic?
I don't watch enough of his stuff to know that he's ever actually done, like, how far he's gone to that.
I know he's anti-Israel.
Yeah.
And as a distinction, of course.
But, and then there also is, for a lot of people online, an overlap.
I don't know what Hassan's positions are to say he's anti-
I know he's anti-Israel.
Yeah.
But the reason I ask is because with the Twitch adpocalypse, all these people are losing all of their revenue, their income because of accusations of anti-semitism and i'm kind of being like is that just advertisers who don't
know the difference and are scared or are there actually people on twitch who are going outright
full-on he does tolerate it at the very least one of his mods frogan she's anti-semitic purely
there's no question i think she's i don't know she's hilarious oh yeah frogan came up in the
twitch adpocalypse yeah that's right i don't know if she's hilarious. Oh, yeah, Frogan came up in the Twitch adpocalypse. Yeah, that's right.
I don't know if she's still there or not.
I know she got removed for a period of time
for what she had done and what she had said.
What did she do?
Basically just saying...
Anisimeksev.
Yeah, Anisimeksev.
It's always weird how this horseshoe has come back around,
like the far left and far right are meeting on,
like, oh, it's the Jews, and this is just where we're at now.
Okay, so I don't know if she's currently his mod,
but I know that she was for a long time, and she was anti-Semitic for a long time.
Purely anti-Semitic.
There was no there was no.
Oh, just I don't like Israel.
It was it was, you know, overt, overt anti-Semitism.
Well, and he tolerates that. He at least he at least, you know, allows someone like that to be his moderator.
So maybe he's not anti-Semitic, but he doesn't have a problem.
Well, I don't know.
I don't know.
All I'm saying is this is a guy that's been accused of being responsible for the adpocalypse on Twitch.
So I would just like to say to all the Democrats, you need Hasan Piker and more of them.
Because the donors are going to dump.
They're going to stop donating. You already saw a massive collapse of the Democratic Party over
the the pro Hamas faction of the progressive left. And it's fascinating how a lot of these
people try to play this dirty game. Dude, if you tell me you're critical of Israel, I say,
tell me more. If you tell me you're critical of Israel, I say, tell me more. If you
tell me you're critical of Israel and you blame the Jews, I'll say, now, hold on there a minute.
You were allowed to criticize a government in a country. The issue is after October 7th happened,
all sane, rational people are like, this is horrifying. We don't want this to happen.
This needs to be stopped. And you had people in Times Square celebrating it, cheering, saying that freedom fighters had descended on the occupying force.
And when people would come out and say they're celebrating, they're they're anti-Semitic.
Like I am drawing a distinction between the people who are like, I think Israel is a is going too
far. It's like, OK, let's let's have a conversation about a government and its military actions.
And then there is the far left that are overtly blaming Jews and cheering on Hamas and Hezbollah.
Yep. So that that is a problem for Democrats. I don't know where Hassan falls in
that because I don't really follow his content. Ditto. Probably should, though, because he is
substantially more prominent than Rachel Maddow. Right. Who cares about CNN and MSNBC anymore
because they're they're lost. But I Rob flattery Democrats. He should definitely agree with you,
Tim. He should get promoted because he did great with Harris' campaign and he's going to do, maybe the head of the
DNC. He should handle the recruitment
for their new
thriving ecosystem of cultural creators.
Let me ask you guys this. Who do you think
will be the candidate in
2028 for the Democrats?
AOC.
Probably
gruesome news, so maybe.
I don't know. I just don't know because
they like this. Or it's a long time. Yeah. So maybe I don't know. I just don't know because they,
they,
they like this a long time.
Yeah.
You know?
Yeah.
So what you want to do right now is we've got four years.
Who,
where,
where are the 35 to 38 year olds who are rising stars in the
democratic party?
I'm not quite.
Richie Torres.
I don't know that Richie Torres will be the guy,
but that's,
that's,
that's someone that,
I mean, it could be maybe Fetterman the guy, but that's someone that could be.
Maybe.
Fetterman Cortez, 2028.
What do you think, sir?
No, I don't know the answer.
I'm just talking about the future of the Democrats.
I think it's a question that I don't know the answer to.
Richie Torres, if you don't know who he is, take a look.
I don't know who he is.
He's one of the handful of guys that have been speaking out against the far left influence he's from the brocks um yeah he's he's got a lot
of base or is he cringe well he's a democrat so he's cringe so he's cringe i mean there's no
there are there any base democrats um yeah i don't know i broke local ones rocana's all right
yeah like you think Ro Khanna's defended
free speech, but he's also not at the same time. Like, there's been some issues where Ro's been
rather reasonable, and I can respect that. You know, I don't want to say none. I think that's
where he would fall in. AOC will say whatever her audience tells her to say. Yeah. So if we just
basically 51% attack her Twitter account, then she'll just
completely go MAGA. I thought that she already had because of the way that the voting panned
out in her district. Well, not full MAGA, but for those that don't know what a 51% attack is,
it's when you control 51% of nodes in a decentralized system so you can control
the direction it moves. The idea would be if 51% of AOC's followers and responses are from people who are like,
AOC, we're huge fans of yours.
Did you know that Trump is good?
And you basically do that until she's like, I'll just say whatever you want me to say
because that's who she is.
Didn't Nancy Pelosi just tell her she came for the chair of the oversight committee?
Yeah.
I believe they, you know.
AOC lost that.
They stopped her.
And they went with a 70-something-year-old guy.
The guy, he's got cancer.
And people like Emma Vigland are up in arms about it.
So it's hilarious.
Well, we do have that one pulled it up.
We'll pull that one up in a second.
Well, I hope they keep doing what they're doing
if they're going to keep doing stuff like that.
Yeah, I don't know how the Democrats recover.
I really don't.
Well, this is...
Wait, wait.
I don't know if I should I should
save this for the next segment, but we've long lamented that we've long feared the Democrats
would create a uniparty system in this country, a literal, you know, single party that controls
everything. And it's communist. Is that just going to happen with the Republican Party because the
Democrats have basically imploded? I don't think so because i think that
there's there is a civil war going on in the democrats right now in the democrat party right
now i think that you have people in the far left that are represented by people like hassan
people probably like aoc um and they their argument is we should have gone further left
their argument is is kamala harris was too conservative she was
she was too much of a of a corporate hack blah blah blah we should have gone further left now
all of the indicators are that they're wrong that they're they wouldn't if they had gone for if the
democrats had gone further left they would have lost in a more dramatic way than they did but
the argument they make is oh the progressives actually stayed home.
They didn't come out and vote for Kamala Harris.
So actually we would have done better.
I think they're wrong, but that's what the argument is.
So the Democrats need to figure out what they're going to do.
Are they going to go with a more progressive policy?
Are they going to go more progressive like Hassan would like?
Or are they going to go back towards people like Fetterman
and like Richie Torres and stuff like that? I mean, or are they going to go back towards people like Fetterman and like Richie
Torres and stuff like that?
I mean,
if the democratic party decides to moderate and go to the middle,
then you basically just have the Republican party.
The Democrats have nothing to offer in contrast to a moderate Donald Trump.
Trump coming out and saying,
Oh,
we should secure the border is not an extremist position.
The Democrats chose for it to be because they have to offer an alternative.
They have to give a reason why Trump is a bad choice.
And they don't have one because Trump is moderate.
He is not a staunch far right conservative.
He's like a moderate right leaning guy at this point.
And he used to be a Democrat.
Now he's only right leaning because the left has gone nuts.
The Democrats have no choice.
The only option they can offer is the far left. Otherwise, they're going to come out and they're going to be like,
you're going to get Fetterman. He's going to say, look, yo, we want the working class to
afford groceries. And the Republicans are going to be like, yes, we do too. And under our plan,
here's what we did to achieve that. Fetterman, what have you to offer? And he's going to say,
the same thing, but vote for me, I guess. and they're going to be like why why change it if it's working i mean well there's a time where the the biggest
difference between the democrats and the republicans was were small things everybody in the u.s was
kind of like yes we're all gen we're all against communism except for the the only the the furthest
extreme fringe on the left but now like even what you would consider left leaning Democrats, a lot of them are sympathetic to, you know, some socialist policies.
And when people say things like, oh, we want it like it is in Europe and stuff.
Not that I want that, but that's what they're saying.
They want more more social policies that that represent maybe a more populist or a more authoritarian.
But let's let's gloat a little bit, my friends.
This is a story from the Postmillennial. Democrats reject AOC for ranking oversight committee spot.
Opt for elderly infirm Jerry Connolly.
Oh, poor guy. I answer. OK, I got i gotta say i feel great and i feel miserable about
this i'll explain quote i think my colleagues were measuring their votes by who's got experience
who's seasoned who could be trusted who's capable on it who's got a record of productivity um okay
she was wasn't she the uh vp the site that the of the oversight committee she was just the
aoc yeah i don't know let's read rep Rep. Jerry Connolly emerged victorious Tuesday in a fight with AOC over who would be the ranking member of the House Oversight Committee.
The Democratic establishment ultimately rallied around the 74-year-old Connolly,
who defeated the 34-year-old progressive squad member by a vote of 131 to 84.
Connolly has been a member of the committee since 2009, but revealed on November 7th that he is suffering from esophagus cancer.
Would it be esophageal cancer?
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi encouraged her fellow Democrats
to oppose AOC's candidacy and back Connolly.
So here's why I'm happy.
AOC is a bad person.
She is a liar.
She lied about what happened on January 6th.
It's despicable.
I'm not kidding.
She claimed that there's a knock on her door.
So she went and hid in the bathroom. Say it. Say on her door. So she went and hid in the bathroom.
Say it. Say what? Say it. She went and hid in the bathroom and then she heard a voice.
Where is she? Where is she? And it was it. Oh, thank heavens it was a cop.
But she's she was I thought it was the J6 who found me. That story, she told, took place an hour before the Capitol had been breached.
So she made the whole thing up. I mean, the story happened, but it was pertaining to an evacuation,
not any real fear someone had come for her.
She was lying.
So no one deserves this more than her to lose.
But at the same time, holy crap, the Democrats chose a 74-year-old infirm man
instead of the young 35-year this system is broken the fact the best the
democrats have to offer in the minority you know for the ranking position is aoc and they still
went for the guy with cancer who's 74 and only i just holy crap i'm so grateful that donald trump
won can we clean this thing up isn't he the guy that's isn't or isn't he going to be like a run-of-the-mill kind of democrat though and that's part of the reason
why like aoc probably scares a lot of the donors and i mean shank was just in here the other day
talking about how important the donors are i mean yeah i don't have a problem with the democrats
being in disarray but if you're going to put yourself in the Democrats, you know, if you can put yourself in their shoes, they're going to go with someone that doesn't scare the donors.
And someone like AOC or someone like Bernie Sanders, their policies are not the kind of or their desired policies are not the kind of policies that people want to give them millions of dollars to try to implement.
So if you're not going to get the money from the donors to actually try to make policy or to get elected so that way you can try and make policy,
I don't think that it's a surprise that he gets this.
You know, I think most people are just thinking the same thing.
It is only three more days till the Christmas holiday begins.
Make it go away.
I am going to eat pheasant.
Oh, yeah?
I'm not, but you should.
Because that's Christmas bird, isn't it?
Yeah.
Yeah, that's what they do.
Yeah, so that's all that matters.
Everybody else is sitting at home
being like,
only a few more days till we just
don't need to think about it. It is funny though because
there are a lot of people hitting me up being like,
what are we supposed to do for two weeks
without IRL? And I'm like, I don't talk to your family, I guess.
I mean, that's
what you'd hope. I don't like taking time
off, but
nobody works after Thanksgiving.
That's a fact.
It is, after Thanksgiving, That's a fact. It is. After Thanksgiving,
everybody phones it in.
Yeah.
I tell you what,
that's what the music industry is.
After Thanksgiving,
the whole music industry
basically shuts down.
Nothing's going on.
And trying to get people
to do any work
is a nightmare.
That's exactly where we're at right now.
You know what really offends me
more than the AOC Connelly thing?
I just...
Early November, they were putting up christmas decorations yeah and i'm like it's getting worse
every single year it's like dude i love christmas but thanksgiving man wait until thanksgiving is
over i think we got to write some thanksgiving jingles oh yeah yeah there's a funny meme where
it was like if you're mad that christmas is encroaching on Thanksgiving, well, maybe you should write some Thanksgiving bangers.
Thanksgiving jingles.
Yeah, like we got no Thanksgiving music, you know?
Sounds like Christmas is encroaching on Halloween.
It is.
Yeah, literally.
Yeah, like right after Halloween, I saw Christmas stuff going up,
and I said, how dare you?
Yes.
And they were like, well, you know, I'm like, no, no, no, no, no.
Thanksgiving.
Thanksgiving.
You get to eat big food.
It does need to get the love.
Thanksgiving is the best holiday.
It's all the great things about Christmas, but no responsibility to buy gifts.
Yeah, just got to order your turkey in advance and then.
I mean, I'm partial.
It's out of season now, but I'm partial to July 4th because you get all the, you know,
get all the outdoor eating and outdoor activities.
You guys play a show on July 4th?
I don't want to.
Yeah, Magamonth.
Forget about it.
The birth of the country.
I like to spend a lot of time on the lake
and my buddy's got a boat.
Do we have 4th of July music?
We could.
Do we only have Christmas music?
What other holidays have music?
Is there a Labor Day song?
Oh, there is a Labor Day song.
It's the Soviet.
New Year's.
Yeah.
Old Lang Syne.
Yeah, Old Lang Syne.
And nobody knows what that means anyway, and I don't.
And that's only one song, too.
Right.
What is it even about?
I don't know.
Old?
What does that mean?
Nothing.
We got nothing.
All I know is we light
fireworks off and we
celebrate.
Well, that's on the
that's the fourth.
But we have Halloween
music.
Oh, you have a lot of
spooky music.
A lot of monster mash.
You know what I mean?
We'll do the mash.
That's right.
What other songs you got?
You got all the Nightmare
Before Christmas stuff.
Those are classics now.
Yeah.
I was putting the tree up
listening to the holiday music mix and it was it was actually very enjoyable. Right. It. Yeah. I was putting the tree up listening to the holiday music mix
and it was actually very enjoyable.
Right. It's nice. You're putting the tree up.
You're listening to good holiday music.
It's good for the soul.
Yeah, it was. Girlfriend was making
hot chocolate. Definitely making sandwiches.
I mean, just kidding.
We need some 4th of July music.
We do. MAGA music.
I think that's a great idea.
Bring something out for next year, guys.
I mean, I guess you could think like American Band by...
I don't know.
I'm going to look it up.
You got to write the song.
And here's the plan.
We're going to write 4th of July jingles.
And you have to put in them things like we all grab our sidearms and our rifles,
because the point is...
Grand Funk Railroad, we're in America.
When you sing a Christmas song and it's like dashing through the snow
on a one-horse open sleigh or like under the mistletoe,
they become, it ingrains that tradition in the minds of the people who celebrate.
So now mistletoe is a common thing.
You put it up the mistletoe.
Oh, you're in the middle.
You got to give a kiss.
It's like, okay, we need Fourth of July music
where it's like, we have a verse that says,
you know, put on your holster and strap your sidearm.
This is America.
That way people never forget
that the right to keep and bear arms
is enshrined in the Constitution
as an American tradition, you know?
And then it's going to be the Fourth of July
and they're going to be like,
oh, you're open caring.
You have to kiss.
You have to do it.
So if a man and a woman in a relationship are both open caring, that's 4th of July.
You got to kiss now.
That's what you got to do.
And if you're a guy, you just give a hug.
You get regular old fist bumps.
There you go.
No, hug is good.
You do the ch-ch.
Real hugs.
Two hats in the back.
No ditty.
I heard about that the other day.
I don't know what else you'd want to have in a 4th of July song.
I mean, the slag banner kind of is, but, you know.
I just think of good old 70s pro-America rock songs.
But you've got to write a rock and roll song.
Rock and roll is probably the genre to go for.
Explicitly about starting the journey of the 4th of July.
So there will be a verse in there about fire up the grill, get the burgers going.
Beer's barbecue.
Beer's barbecue with your friends and family celebrating freedom, liberty.
The sun's up early and family celebrating freedom, liberty.
The sun's up early and so are you.
Yeah.
Okay. And then it's got to be like, you know, driving down the street in my car.
Camarillo or Camaro.
With my guns.
This is totally gun oriented.
Going to pick up beers and dogs.
We have to make traditions for the 4th of July.
I'm going to tell my kid. I'm going to be like, oh, you know, this is what make traditions for the 4th of July. Like, I'm going to tell my kid,
I'm going to be like,
oh, you know, this is what we do on the 4th of July.
Like, you know, we have,
we take several different magazines
from a bunch of different guns
and we put them on the door.
Well, I mean, in New Hampshire,
we used to have me and a bunch of my buddies,
we'd get together and we'd have a machine gun shoot
because Rob's got a machine gun.
Oh, there you go.
And, you know, we'd bring them all out
and shoot them, like line them up on the table and go. And, you know, we'd bring them all out and line them up on the table,
and you'd have, you know, 15 or 20 machine guns,
and there's a handful of guys that we knew that had their own machine guns.
They'd bring them up, and you'd have a bunch of magazines ready.
Got it.
No drinking until the machine guns go away.
Did you guys know that it was actually an American tradition
to gift a loved one a box of ammunition on the
4th of July. That's a great idea. I heard that was a lot of work. Because on the 4th of July,
with fears of the British regulars coming to the colonies to quell the rebellion,
loved ones were trading.50 caliber... Ammo cans. Ball. Yeah, ball. It's just called ball.
And black powder to their loved ones.
And it became a tradition where
on this beautiful day,
we all go to our friends
and we provide them with a box of ammunition
that we feel is appropriate.
This is all true.
You can check it out.
Wikipedia says it's verifiable.
And you have to hang a steel-toed boot
on the side of your stairs
so that old Sergeant Independence can come and drop a few cartridges for you.
And you can use it to kick the British tyranny out of your country.
It's too derivative of Christmas, though.
It's like the only thing we can think of is just turning Christmas things
into not Christmas things.
We have six months.
Well, you guys got like three months for your song, but everyone else will figure it out in five minutes.
I think you need to take—
Plenty of time.
It's tradition to take three standard capacity magazines, which is 30 rounds.
30 rounds.
And hang them from your door.
And it's a sign to keep away those tyrannical regulars.
Now, we don't really fear the British regulars anymore,
but did you know that they would hang 50 caliber ball from their doors
to let the regulars know that they were armed?
Yeah.
Indeed.
And so now it's a tradition where we don't put the real ammo or the guns.
We just put a magazine over the window.
It's like painting the blood above the...
It's like a wreath.
Not so dramatic.
Well, no, I was thinking like Passover,
they painted the lamb, the blood,
the sacrificed lamb or whatever.
I don't know.
Someone in chat told us there's a song
called Independence Day by Martina McBride.
Yeah.
So there's a song with that one. What genre is it? Martina McBride. Yeah. So there's a song with that one.
What genre is it?
Martina McBride, what does she do?
It's a country song.
Okay.
Okay.
Yeah, country works.
Makes sense.
Yeah.
It's actually a legit good song.
I think it's got to be rock and roll, though,
because what's iconic about Christmas music is it's very rock and roll-y.
Yeah.
And we don't really write new Christmas songs either.
There was like this period in America
where they were like,
let's just release 15 Christmas songs.
And they did.
And we just play them on repeat every year.
I don't remember that ever since.
Yeah.
Just Mariah Carey, nonstop.
Well, she's the new,
that's the new version.
It's a new one, yeah.
But most of the Christmas songs
are what, from like the 50s?
Yeah, at least. I think we need a St. Patrick's Day song. Actually, no, I think there's a new one. It's a new one, yeah. But most of the Christmas songs are what, from like the 50s? Yeah, at least.
I think we need a St. Patrick's Day song.
Actually, no, I think there's a bunch already.
I don't think that I'm allowed to write that.
The whole band dropping Murphys?
Exactly.
I was going to say, like, basically any one of them.
Your whole catalog.
Literally every song.
Road to the Righteous is a great song.
It was started the other day, by the way.
Anybody a fan?
Road to the Righteous.
Let's jump to this story from the Daily Mail.
So actually, you know, I'd like to lead with, hey, here's the news.
Luigi Mangione has been indicted on murder charges for the shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
And I believe it's under a terror statute.
So the left, of course, is celebrating this guy.
But the news that I find more interesting is that two documentaries are already in the works because we are a sick nation. We need a cultural cleansing
of sorts. And this is proof that just our culture is in trouble. I'm going to put it that way.
This is why you can't say that the right has actually, you know, won the war or whatever. There are significant advances of
ideas from the right,
but there's a
massive amount of people that think that
and it's actually not just people on the left,
but there's a massive amount of people that think that
it was justified because
the health insurance industry
is messed up or doesn't produce
the results that they think it should.
Then it's justified they they're charging luigi with terrorism if i understand correctly which is
i can agree exactly what he should be charged with people are um either they're confused as to why
yeah i was trying to get murder with terrorism yeah with terrorism yeah and but the point like
the point of him killing the CEO was to get political change.
That was the whole point of it.
Anytime you use violence to achieve political ends, that is terrorism.
That's the dictionary definition of terrorism.
So charging him as a terrorist is the exact right thing to do.
So whatever the punishment for that is, that's what he should.
That's what he should have to. So right now.
I think we're on the verge of culturally just.
We're going to turn inside out and then cease to exist.
Something happens in the news like the train gets derailed in Ohio.
And then three days later, a book is on Amazon about it.
And it's like, dude, come on.
Is that true?
Like, I'm...
Or example, okay.
Figuratively.
I think, actually,
I think that may have happened.
Like, within a week or so
of that happening,
someone put out a book.
Documentary comes out right away,
and it's like the true story
of what happened.
And I'm just like,
they're working on two
high-profile documentaries
about this guy already?
It's been
like two weeks i i just i think we are a bored listless faithless people and we should be
striving this is why i like elon he's like we're gonna go to mars and i'm like that's a good thing
because the technology that comes from space travel is massive it's not just it's not just
so with like the original space program,
the Apollo program,
we developed a whole bunch of new chemicals
and various products
through the research and development.
That's great that Elon's doing that.
We need a country that is focused
on achieving a great goal.
Instead, it's everybody's just super bored and angry
and they're trying to find purpose
where there's none.
And it's kind of like all the apps are just are just feeling that just the narcissism is being fueled by
these apps.
Just constant dopamine drip.
You have no drive to go do anything.
There's no,
there's no pressure.
There's no,
there is literally no pressure.
There's nothing driving.
You're pushing you in any direction.
So like people just hang out,
they just sit and don't do anything and just watch TV and just scroll their
phone.
It's,
it's crazy.
But like,
that's like where the Aldous Huxley thing comes into,
into, into reality. It's like people are literally just being fed their vices and just scroll their phone. It's crazy, but that's where the Aldous Huxley thing comes into reality.
People are literally just being fed their vices and just falling for it.
Sam, you've been to like 193 countries.
Is it your sense that this is something that's unique to the West, or is it something that
you would imagine is, or that you think is global, or what?
I mean, I haven't heard about what Tim was talking about, how there was a documentary documentary a week later or a book a week later so i i haven't heard about anything like that
no well i mean i because i it's my sense that there is there was a leftist push um
that was international like you see a lot in there's a lot in europe and now that's why you
see the right the swing back of the pendulum a lot of that is a lot in Europe. And now that's why you see the right the swing back of the pendulum.
A lot of that is going on in Europe.
I guess the German chancellor there, they're beginning the the the process necessary to have an election next year to get rid of the German chancellor.
You've got Trudeau is under fire.
Oh, yeah.
The Italian lady is pretty based, right?
Yeah. She was elected. The Italian lady is pretty based, right? Yeah.
She was elected.
There's problems in France.
So this is something that's going on, you know, at least all over the West.
Tim.
There was I did a quick Google search within one month of the disaster.
There was a book for sale on Amazon and the train in Ohio.
Yeah.
And I think there's probably a bunch more a month they'd have to you'd have to
do so much work to get that out because i i think i think that was like we had talked about it oh
here's another one uh okay so there's two and then it just starts giving me a bunch of israel stuff
of course the juice because the city was east palestine. Oh. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it does feel like a lot of the anger that used to exist is kind of dissipated.
People aren't just furious about Donald Trump anymore, but they're definitely not just not
doing anything.
People are definitely...
But the thing is, a lot of people that I've seen, at least that are apolitical people
are now...
That used to be apolitical before 2020 or 2016 became political and now they're like,
eh, it's boring.
We've been doing this for like eight years.
It's not fun anymore.
Like riots are like, eh, kind of fun, but like I don't want to do that anymore.
So it's like I've just been seeing a lot of people kind of just, you know, kind of give
up and want to do something new or like the politics is getting annoying.
It's frustrating for them.
It's like they were casuals.
They weren't actually.
Yeah, they were casuals.
Definitely.
Sam, you speak a lot about uncertainty.
Is there any kind of uncertainty
in the future of what you see going on
in America, or what can be certain?
I don't know if anything
can be certain right now. I'm not exactly
sure how we as a country
deal with all of that at the moment, but
I'm not quite sure right now.
If someone was uncertain, how would they deal with their lives?
So the main things that I talk about are three key things.
One is to lean into gratitude and have a perspective.
Two is to control the things we can control.
And the third is to recognize these uncertain times as an opportunity to grow.
Those are the key things that I talk about.
I'm not sure if it's relevant here, but those are the main things that that i talk about i'm not sure if it's relevant here but those are the main things that i talk about it's definitely relevant yeah i
i think that that's kind of relevant all the time because it like i at least to some degree you're
taught a lot of like the stuff that you're talking about there or is stuff that the stoics were
talking about like don't worry about things you can't control and i think if people had a little
more focus on their own lives and less focus on
trying to save the world and this is something that jordan peterson talks about all the time
when he's like doing the whole clean your room thing like focus on the things that you can do
something about and if you have small successes in your life that will alleviate the anxiety
that you're feeling that that is leading you to think we've got to change
the whole world we've got to do you know there's so many big things if you've done if you know if
you're you're 22 23 years old and you've done nothing in your life it's probably not a good
idea to take on global hunger you know there's that's a big one bigger fish fry yeah i mean
you've got things that are more immediate in your life
that you probably need to take care of.
I'm sure there's some mold somewhere under your bed or something
that you might want to, you know.
And so I do think that the—
Dude, if Aspen Gold can clean his house, that's huge.
You know, I mean, he deserves kudos for that.
If he can do it, anyone can do it.
That's right.
Seriously. I've seen his before photos that he deserves kudos for that. If he can do it, anyone can do it. That's right. Seriously.
You know.
I've seen his before photos.
They share.
Holy moly.
It's crazy.
It's crazy.
I can't imagine how you can be that rich and have a house like that.
Like, what are you doing?
I mean, that kind of speaks to what I'm saying.
Like, there's just like this blasé.
Like, there's just this, it's ennui, like what Tim's saying.
Like, there's just like no one, nothing drives anybody.
There's nothing to care about. Like, you always say, like, if tim's saying like there's just like no one no nothing drives anybody i think there's nothing to care about like you always say like um if people are comfortable
there's no revolution no one's gonna do anything about it you know that's the same for us too
people won't do anything if everything's too comfortable it's the fourth turning in some
respect like we we fight there's a reason why fight club resonated with so many people and
given the opportunity i will always shout out Dickie Barrett.
Because we were,
I was talking to him about the impression that I get that song.
You know,
it's a never had to,
but I better knock on wood.
What a great song.
Yeah.
He was saying it was about how when he was young,
there was no great battle.
Yeah.
That the generation before him had Vietnam,
that there was desert storm. But he,
in the mid to late nineties was just like,
here I am enjoying all the
wealth and prosperity and I've never been challenged.
Knock on wood. I hope I'm not.
And that's what he's talking about.
Like, you know, I don't know if I'm a coward. I'm afraid of
what I might find out.
There's been no great challenge.
We had the victory in our hands
and what happens then is you become listless.
A generation of people with no purpose,
no great quest, no great challenge. It is unfortunate, but the reality is you become listless, a generation of people with no purpose, no great quest, no great challenge.
It is unfortunate, but the reality is you need hardship.
People need a challenge to push against.
It's actually quite simple.
Humans have developed and invented their way out of needing to lift heavy things.
So we have to pretend we have to force ourselves to lift heavy things to maintain what
our bodies need to survive guys who don't lift their testosterone goes down which results in
vision problems and joint problems depression because it used to be back in the day you were
carrying the carcass of the elk back to your camp so uh bear cutting down trees so right on january
31st of next year we're releasing a
new record and the record is called anti-fragile which speaks to exactly what tim is talking about
the whole point of the the the title anti-fragile is human beings need resistance to grow right
right the the astronauts that go to space they spend spend a significant amount of time in contraptions that allow them to do cardio and work their bodies because there's no gravity in space and you will lose bone density and your muscles will deteriorate extremely fast if you're not doing that stuff.
When people want to get better at something, it's hard.
You're starting off, right?
Yeah, when you're learning a new instrument,
like learning how to play an instrument or learning how to do anything,
it's difficult.
And that stimulation, that stimuli, that effort that you put in makes you better.
And it takes resistance to make yourself better.
And that is part and parcel with being a human being.
You have to have.
Yeah, it's part of life.
If you remember those crazy labs they did where they tried to keep humans inside pods.
They had trees growing.
And this is a famous story people probably know about.
The trees were always falling over.
And the reason was there was no wind.
Trees literally need wind in order to keep themselves up.
You need resistance to grow.
I don't know why we lost this at some point.
I forget what it was.
There was a, someone had done some kind of farming of trees,
but they didn't have the wind.
Right, no wind, they'd fall over.
And the wood was no good to use.
Like, they couldn't, you couldn't do anything with the wood because it wasn't strong.
You ever see those trees that grow in this ridiculously windy clifftop and all of the branches are just straight, just horizontal in one direction.
It's like a stump and then like a letter F.
And the wood is, it's extremely solid.
It's really rigid.
And you, like that's just the way of reality.
Because, you know know we talk about it
or we were just talking about it with when it comes to human beings but that is a feature of
the real world that we live in resistance makes you stronger and again it doesn't just it's not
just people it applies to trees it applies to it applies to all life forms. Sometimes I think about what I call the sine curve.
You guys remember trigonometry?
Yeah.
Remember the sine curve?
It's this never-ending up and down radio wave.
And sometimes I think about what I characterize as the sine curve of life.
And essentially at the top, it's important to have humility and awareness and gratitude and things.
But nothing deeply good emerges from the
top it's always at the bottom of the curve where all the growth happens and at the top what's
certain is you're coming down the bottom you're coming back up it's important to have that
perspective because at the bottom that's where it's important and that's where all the growth
happens all of the all of the the bad things that have happened in my life, whether it be my personal
life or my career or whatever, they've always been the thing that inspired me to do something
better and achieve more. I think if we're all honest with ourselves, I think we would say that
our personality today, the very essence of our life life is a result of those challenges that we
faced and the choices we made
as a result of those challenges,
not because of the good times that
we've had. Bro, it's like we were talking about before the show,
how I said when you get luck
or whatever, it's opportunity, meeting,
preparation. If you don't prepare for something and you get
something given to you, you can't be ready for it. You're not going to
take advantage of it the right way. You're not going to get anything from it.
You should always be getting
prepared uh and that's why i always preach to the young folks of the world like if they're lost
you definitely if you need some resistance you need an obstacle you need a challenge
i suggest the military because you're going to get that in the military maybe some other places
but if you join the military you have you're stuck you're stuck for at least three four years that
you have no choice in the matter but to make yourself better and or
fail.
Or become a lot better. I've seen a lot of people join the military and become
way better people. It's the best thing for young people.
Even if you can up until
28 plus. Civil service,
anybody? Conscription for
everyone. Actually, quick thought on that.
So in
the NCAA now, because of
COVID and the way a lot of things so i played
hockey in college so i'm talking a little bit about specifically hockey but other sports too
it's now very easy for players to to transfer schools they can just oh yeah it's super easy
whereas before like when i was playing transferring was like essentially not an option because you had
to sit out a year but now these players can transfer as quickly, basically as much as they want to.
And what I think a lot of these coaches are learning is that it's,
it's previously a coach could be very hard on a player and it would,
they would have to fight through that, that adversity and get better.
And that was oftentimes where they grew the most was from,
from fighting through those challenges.
But now today, anytime a player's facing any kind of adversity they just pull the shoot and
leave and things have changed on that front and so i think there's some missed opportunities there
it's important to and i i don't know that it's uh that it's something that that parents should
be instilling or if it's something that is in people, in some people and not
in other people but it's important
to
have
that kind of
attitude that says if I
fail I'm going to try again
right like
there are plenty of things in my life
that you know didn't work out the way that I wanted them to.
And every time that something negative has happened or something that didn't work out the way that I wanted to, it wasn't like, oh, well, you know, I guess I got to stop doing this.
If I if I stopped trying to be in a band the first time that I didn't get something that I wanted, The first band I ever tried out to be in, I wasn't good enough.
And I just hadn't been playing long enough.
And they were like, nah, we're going to go with another guy.
And thankfully, six months later, they hit me up and they were like,
yo, that guy didn't work out.
Are you still interested?
And I was like, yeah.
But if I had quit playing guitar, I wouldn't have been,
I wouldn't have had a 20-year career in the music industry you can probably pinpoint those spots too those like
disappointments yep and then how many good things would come from them yeah absolutely
plenty of them plenty of them so it's it's important for people to you know that you it's
it's it's cliche to say you know when you get punched in the face get knocked down get up but
that rocky the the oh that speech yeah the speech that he's given to his kid, he's like, look,
you know, the important thing is how many times you can get knocked down
and keep getting up.
That's how winning is done.
That is exactly right.
That is how you win.
It's not because you are invincible and you don't get knocked down
and it doesn't hurt and it has nothing to do with it.
It means that you get up and keep trying what's the name of that uh i don't know what
you describe it it's a ideology of some sort or facet of philosophy humans would be happier as
farmers there's a there's a there's a term for this where technology has basically ripped us from what makes us function properly.
That is, working on a farm, you're lifting heavy things, so you're getting regular exercise.
You're up early in the morning.
When the sun comes up, you're in bed at night.
Argarians.
Argarians?
I don't know.
Argarians?
Yeah.
Argarians.
It says the importance of agriculture and farming.
Well, agrarian way of life is just being a farmer.
There's an idea that's specifically how technology—
Historialism?
I have no idea.
Well, keep looking.
Basically, technology has created artificial scheduling.
And so going back to the point where, you know, upstairs, we have a whole bunch of
weights, we have a power cage and all that stuff. We have to find time in the day to simulate
lifting heavy things, like, well, literally lift heavy things to simulate farm work, basically,
because we have removed ourselves from what humans were built for. And so now humans are
largely unhappy. Grok says the idea of pastoralism in literature and philosophy, historically pastoralism or the
idealized view of rural life has been romanticized in literature and philosophy,
suggesting that living closer to nature like farmers do could lead to a more fulfilled,
happy life. This isn't a term per se, but a recurring theme. So, you know, maybe that's
the idea. But I think that you make a good point.
Like getting up in the morning when the sun comes up,
having a goal.
Chickens.
Oh, having a goal.
Having a goal.
Feeding the chickens,
making sure the chickens are taken care of,
among other things.
But having a, you know, if you have a farm,
there are things you have to do every single day.
Yeah.
I have heard from so many people, like, we got to do better promotion for Chicken City
because everybody loves it.
Yeah.
So the other day I tweeted it.
I tweeted it a couple times.
And for those that don't know what it is, Chicken City, ChickenCityLive.com.
If you want to watch chickens live their lives.
It's dope.
It's the Truman.
Yeah, it's the Truman Show for chickens.
But, you know, but a couple weeks ago
it was raining
and so I'm sitting in this box
it's a 40 foot tall warehouse
and then
inside the warehouse is another building
there's no windows
there's no ventilation
it's just dark all day
we have studio lights
and then I was like
I'm going to tweet out Chicken City for fun because I don't really do it.
I did.
And then I opened the YouTube video and I heard the sound of rain and chickens eating and balking.
And I just left it on.
And I was like, dude, this is ASMR.
This is like for humans that have lost their way and are living in the city.
You can hear the sounds of nature and
chickens. And then I heard from a bunch of people where they were like, I had someone tell me
recently, they said, yeah, when you tweeted out, I turned it on and I just forgot about it. And
it was on for like two hours. It's kind of nice. And I'm like, humans want to live on a homestead
with some animals. They want to wake up and do work. They want to think about this. I mean, all of it.
Granted, like health care is worse.
You stub your toe, you get sepsis, right?
It's miserable.
Yeah.
And so great technologies come with the way we live today.
But if you go back to how people live on the farm,
you spent your whole day with your family.
Your kids are right there with you.
They were helping you.
You were doing the work you had to do.
In fact, you had a lot of kids because you needed kids to survive.
You need family.
And then you'd go into town only periodically.
And only like once a week or once a month would you get the post and actually learn about what was going on.
And the only news that mattered to you was whether or not it felt like there was going to be a drought this year.
And then you'd wake up.
There's your family.
You have breakfast.
You go tend to the animals. you come back, you hang out.
Those are the things that really matter.
We hear people talk about it all the time.
What are the most important things to you?
Like the most important things to your family,
the most important things to your mom, your kids, your wife,
the people that are closest to you.
I mean, we hear these things in in in all kinds of stories and
you see it in in hallmark cards and and everything you know but yet at the same time as a society we
have lost that we have lost the focus on that which we tell people that things that are far
removed from them are the most important that things that are far removed from them are the most important.
The things that are going on in Washington, D.C. are the most important.
You've got a whole generation of young women that believe that have no intention of getting pregnant or having having an abortion or not having an abortion.
Like that's not something that they're all that worried about.
But that's the most important thing to them is abortion access like they're not having sex or maybe or they're in a in a committed relationship
that's another one that blows my mind women over 50 that think abortion is the most important thing
it's like ma'am loony ladies ma'am you you it is not important to you if abortion abortion rights
are not important to you i i abortion rights are not important to you.
I understand that you've got a feeling about them.
But like the things that are going on in Washington, D.C., are not the things that are the most important things happening to your life.
The most important things that are happening in your life are the things that happen every day.
The people that you see every day and the people you're around every day and, and how you live your life.
And so the idea that,
you know,
something that,
that some politician says,
you know,
a thousand miles away,
how that,
how you believe or believing that that's the most important thing going on in
your life is ridiculous.
And if the only reason that you can convince yourself that it is,
is because you're missing actually important things.
Your actual interpersonal relationships with your family, with your friends, those things
are suffering.
And so you've replaced them with things far away.
Donna S. says it's Luddism.
Luddites.
Well, that's not.
The Luddites were an anti-industrialist movement.
They were upset that they were going to lose their jobs to machines.
So that's not what I'm referring to. It is entirely possible that you could live a modern
internet-based technological life with a TV and video games and all that stuff,
but have a homestead. And I think it's become quite popular actually in the past.
Oh, it's growing.
Years or so.
Definitely growing.
Yeah. Like people who have regular jobs still want to have the animals and bring back a little
bit and hybridize. So you're not, it's not pure homesteading
where you're quite literally just going to be self-reliant
and go back to the old ways.
But a lot of people have been like,
they'll get a couple of miniature goats or a mini cow
and they'll get some chickens.
They'll get a couple acres where it's legal
and then they'll still have a job,
but they'll come home and they'll have animals
and they'll get a large amount of their food
from their garden.
I mean, we were into that for a while.
We had a garden at the castle for a while.
Yo, it is, I feel bad for people
who don't eat the food they've grown for breakfast.
It is an amazing thing to wake up in the morning.
I would wake up, I'd walk to the front of the house,
go into the garden, and I would grab a zucchini,
and I would grab a zucchini,
and I would grab a handful of cherry tomatoes.
Then I would grab two eggs right from under the chicken,
and I'd make scrambled eggs with zucchini and tomatoes,
just like that.
That was delicious.
The only thing I had to add to it was olive oil.
Oh, yeah.
That was me.
I didn't want the eggs to stick.
Sure.
But it was like I'm sitting there eating this this and I'm like, it doesn't really taste
better, but it does taste better, you know?
And then I was like, man, it's, it's something amazing about just growing your own food.
On, on, on that aspect, I did, before I started working here, I did a lot of electrical work
on the side for houses.
And from 2019 to, I started working here, I didn't notice any in 19 or 20 or in 21
but like 22 and 23 came around people i'll start to know people's houses that were in the rural or
the urban um suburban communities and they had freaking chickens like in the backyard they had
a tiny little shed they'd have tiny little sheds and they have like six or four chickens
so it's coming back i've had chickens off and on from like my whole life my parent and i lived in in you know
i grew up in chickabee massachusetts which is like very suburban it's not in the woods but we had my
dad had a few acres and my mom built a chicken coop and we did the like we had them we did we
had chickens that we slaughtered you know and, and I did the whole, you know.
Oh, you did the deed?
Yeah, I did the deed myself.
And, you know, it's not, I mean, it's not like something that I'm, like, dying to continue doing.
I like the fact that I can, you know, have, like, I have good ranchers delivered to my house.
I like the fact that I can have that done.
But at the same time, there's not same time, having chickens just to get eggs,
they're super low maintenance,
really. You have to clean out the coop
every once in a
while or whatever.
Not ours.
Well,
what we
had built for the
first Chicken City was
we had a sewer system
for the chickens. Oh, nice.
And they were always pooping it too?
Maybe you're always talking on TV about pooping in it.
In the sewer system? No, Jesus.
Never mind. What? Never mind.
It didn't work so well.
So you don't really have to clean them out
too much depending on
what it is. But if it's like
a small with a lot of chickens and it's
inside, you do. But we have an outside system.
So you've got to do some cleaning,
but for the most part, the chicken's just pooping the grass.
Or you can go with the
Thomas Massey model, the Clucks
Capacitor. It is
a solar-powered chicken
coop that slowly moves across the
grass, and so the
chickens are always staying on fresh grass.
And Thomas was saying uh
representative massey that the grass behind it is always really tall and lush because the chickens
dump all over the place and then keep moving they eat the grass and then it grows back thicker and
fuller than the surrounding grass it's amazing yeah he's a smart man thomas massey knows what
he's talking about indeed you know too bad he wasn't going to be an agriculture secretary.
Yeah.
It would be cool to see him as a...
So how about we do this?
How about we terrify the leftists by instituting mandatory basic training for everybody at the age of 17?
Love it.
Hey, that's what they do in Singapore.
And you know that.
It's great there.
Everyone has a job.
They become either a police officer or a firefighter. They do
public service work. They become police officers.
For instance, they say, oh, police officers become
wicked because they're always in the police force. Well, in Singapore
they solved that because they leave the police force after
they've become like 23, 24, 25.
So I don't see why that's
the bad thing. I don't see why all the lefties would be mad
about that. They love social services.
They love big civil
projects and stuff, right? So why would they be mad about that? that i don't get it they would only be better when they got out
you know they don't be better human beings after the three months they were there i remember when
rahm emanuel got elected uh he was saying that he was in favor of three month basic training
for all americans at 18 or something and i was like yeah right back then i was like you're not
gonna make me do anything i refuse you know now i'm older and I'm like yeah maybe I didn't need it back then but now I can see exactly
why ever like most people do and uh I actually now I'd be totally for it like it's funny because
when I was younger I was like I do whatever I want I just get on the train and go skateboard
now I'm older and I'm like, I should hire a personal trainer. Yeah. Like we, you know, skateboarding isn't enough. Yeah.
You know, I, I, I get two hours of exercise. My heart rate is maxed out the whole time, which is probably not good, but it's great cardio.
But I've been, I've been trying to throw in more pull ups as often as I can and push ups and lifting as often as I was.
I had a trainer earlier in the year and I was lifting but dude it is it's the workload is brutal you know
it's like like yesterday we were leaving for for the on Friday to Arizona and then we got Christmas
so I don't know when I'm gonna get a chance to work out hopefully at the hotel or something
maybe get on the treadmill but I'm getting done at like four or five o'clock and then I have to
go eat and come right back to do work again I'm'm like, dang, I have. And, you know, for a lot of people, there was this viral post where a guy's like he was he's like a picture of me when I started my job.
And then a picture two years later and he's morbidly obese.
And he was like, because the job was all sitting down, he never got to move.
And I'm like, that's an excuse to your salary position was not stopping you from getting to a gym for an hour every day before or after work.
You can make it work.
You can go home.
You can do that exercise.
I exercise here.
One of the reasons we built the skate park is because I like it,
but it's a great way of staying in shape.
It is.
But working 16-hour days is a bit different.
I still find time to exercise, and I still throw down push-ups
if I can't get anything done because you always have time for push-ups.
So, yeah.
Pull-ups too, you got to get a pull-up bar.
Yeah, we're going to put a pull-up bar
in the studio door.
And because this is what I used to do
when I grew up with my roommates.
It's called paying taxes.
Oh, yeah.
So you put a pull-up bar
and anybody who wants to come in
has to do one solid pull-up
all the way up, all the way down,
and then you can come in.
When you want to leave, same deal.
You know, with limited exception.
I think the ladies are largely exempt from it.
They get knee-ups.
I mean.
Women are weak and small.
Well, you know, I'm not trying to be a dick or anything,
but I think, like, women can't really do pull-ups, right?
I mean, some can.
If they train a lot.
Like, your average, well, actually. And chin-ups are different do pull-ups, right? I mean, some can. If they train a lot.
Yeah.
Well, actually.
And chin-ups are good pull-ups for anyone.
I was going to say your average guy could probably do a pull-up,
but I don't know if that's true anymore.
No, not average now.
Exactly.
I was like, there was a point where the average guy could easily do a couple pull-ups.
Now the average guy certainly cannot. I think the average American, I think, is overweight.
Like the average person is overweight.
And so I don't imagine that the average guy can do pull-ups.
I think maybe 40% of the population, the male population, can actually do a pull-up.
I think 40% of the population are obese.
And that's just obese, not overweight.
So yeah, 100% right. Eric Ree% of the population are obese, so that's, you know, and that's just obese, not overweight. So, yeah.
100% right. Eric Reeves in the regular chat says, I hate to tell you, Tim, reading the news isn't work.
Go work a construction job for 12
hours and then go work out.
If you work a construction
job, you are getting exercise.
And a lot of these construction, I mean, I'm not saying
like the manager's office. I worked for two
years at American Airlines
Regional, where we would lift 50,000 pounds per day. Isn't that crazy? That's office. I worked for two years at American Airlines Regional, where we would lift
50,000 pounds per day. Isn't that crazy? That's nuts. Because you're lifting all the bags. Yeah.
And it was wild. It's like 35 to 50,000 pounds per day you lift. Not all at once, obviously.
But you've got, with a single plane, you could have like, I don't know, 30 to 40, 60 pound bags.
Yeah. And then you're offloading
and loading both. And sometimes there's two carts. And then if you're working in the bag room,
you're just lifting. So we actually did the average based on how we load the planes.
And when you get the flight manifest for the load, it's like, man, that's actually crazy how
much we lift every single day. It's pretty nuts. So you're getting your exercise if you're doing
physical labor and things like that.
Right.
So I'm not super concerned about a dude who's actually using his body for a job.
Yeah, sometimes.
Then it's diet.
Yeah.
Like sometimes here, it all depends on what the day is.
I do not need to work out based on the activities for the task.
Carrying all those pizzas in on Fridays.
Yeah, well, Fridays I relax.
13 pizzas, you know.
13. That's a bad, scary
number, though. Yeah.
But I would also add, too, I love
this. Rating the news isn't work.
Go work a construction job.
Man, I gotta tell you, dude,
this is the most work I've ever done in my life.
I'm not saying it's the worst
work. It pays the best, that's for sure.
But, man, guys, when I used to work at the airline, you do a lot of physical labor.
But you also have like a 45-minute downtime from when the plane is sitting before you have to load it.
And everyone's playing Xbox.
And then you leave.
You get there at 5.30.
You leave at 1.30.
And that's your day.
And if you need to make more money, you got to work more.
And I was working double shifts for sure.
But this job, I think people need to understand that I don't just read the news.
We have like 10 different companies.
We've got 40 plus employees and contractors.
We've got like five different lawyers.
We've got lawsuits.
Yo, it's brutal.
And what's their definition of work?
Like your brain's getting used all the time.
Yeah.
Whereas they can sit around, you know,
you don't have to think about it.
Then you just pick things up and put them down.
It's work.
No, no, I'm saying there's two different worlds.
The same work is work.
Yeah.
It doesn't have to be manual labor.
It's just, I mean, he's being a little, you know.
I understand.
I like, yeah.
His line of work compared to what other people's line of work are.
And if he wants to be like the, I have physical exertion elitism,
he can have his physical exertion.
Yeah, cool.
Is that elitist?
Well, that's the same impulse.
It's like, oh, you're not actually working.
I'm working because I'm doing physical
labor. Well, okay.
If that's how you
measure work, then
fine. I don't work either.
But I still like
my job and I like the things that I do.
And if it upsets
you that I don't work and I can
still pay my bills, good.
Yeah, man. Whatever lets him sleep at night, man.
Whatever helps him go to sleep.
Whatever you need.
Yeah.
Whatever pays the bills, too.
Yeah, true.
A hundred percent.
I mean, do you think that being in a band and traveling all the time and playing rock
concerts is real work?
He probably would say no, and I don't care.
How about being a pro athlete
that's some damn
that's a little more physicality than being in a band
that's for sure
those guys are to be
top level pro athletes
you're out there breaking a sweat
every single day
this is why I call skateboarding the lowest
form of sports
because pro skateboarders are probably the worst athletes.
Yeah.
Not kidding.
Like, you look at the Olympics and it's like these are people who, not all of them, but skateboarding has very few people who are like, I've got to stretch and stay hydrated.
You look at all the other Olympic sports and these people are figurative slaves, right?
Some of these kids.
So I knew a kid who was training for the Olympics.
He had no choice in anything.
They'd wake up at the crack of dawn.
They'd force him to eat things that he didn't want to eat.
He had to do what he was told.
Then it's like 100 pushups now go.
And it was just until he had a mental breakdown.
You look at skateboarding.
It's like some dude eating a cheeseburger and smoking
cigarettes and then wearing khakis. And then they're as good as they could be. And then all
of a sudden they find themselves in these big teams. That's going to change real soon. I keep
telling all my friends in skating, like these pros, guys, we are probably 10 years away from
pro skateboarders wearing unitards. You think that North Korea or China care about your culture?
They want to win gold medals.
They're going to make their athletes do and wear whatever they have to to win.
But the Olympics so far for skateboarding has largely been, well, wear what you feel like wearing.
So your prediction is based off the Olympics?
Well, I mean, what other Olympic sport allows people to literally wear anything they want and eat whatever they want and do whatever?
Like, none.
They're all heavily
regimented yeah maybe snowboarding is a is a bit more lax but still rather serious look man these
big sponsors are going to come in and they're going to say we don't want to give you money if
you're going to show up stoned yeah you know now now the guys in the olympics they're probably not
smoking they're probably taking a little bit more serious. But man, I know professional skateboarders, some of the most famous. And there has been a movement
where they're like, we're going to stop drinking and smoking and get healthy. Shout out to Neen
Williams, who really is a great example for this. He's a younger guy. He was smoking and drinking a
whole lot. And then he got clean. And now he's a fitness influencer and pro skateboarder. And he's
ripped. And he's got a great burger company called NADC Burger
that's taken Chicago and Austin by storm.
So shout out.
I'm a big fan of people getting clean and setting a good example.
I had a friend of mine.
He's an older guy now.
But he played for the Toronto Maple Leafs in, I think, the early 60s.
And he tells the story that over the summer before the season,
the team sent out a notice and they said that in order to come into training camp,
he had to be able to do like 20 push-ups and run a mile.
That seems pretty low bar.
And then we think about what's happened today with all the training.
I think it just goes to Tim's point about how maybe skateboarding is like that today,
but what's coming in 10 years?
How is this going to progress?
I think he's right.
I think it could look a lot different.
So that was just something that came to mind when he was talking about that.
It's true.
The way that sports evolves, you kind of can't predict what's going to happen because there are game changers that come into the game.
There have been multiple people that have come to a sport and they had to change all the rules because this person just –
like when Shaq got into basketball, he just changed – they had to change a ton of rules.
Breaking rims.
Yeah, because he just was this gigantic guy and they had to change the ton of rules. Breaking rims. Yeah, because he just was this gigantic guy,
and they had to change the rules because of it.
And I can't think of any others off the top of my head,
but I know there are multiple people that they get into a sport,
and it's like, all right, well, we have to change the way
that the sport is played because of this one person on this one team.
And because they change the way the sport is played,
that means they have to change the rules.
What? Go ahead.
I was going to say Tom Brady, the tuck rule. That's your boy.
So he was so good
that they had to change,
they had to give him the tuck rule.
So yeah, that kind of stuff does happen.
So you never can tell
how things are going to progress in the future.

Raybert G. Stanbert Jr. says,
based gingerbread coffee for the win.
Hope it arrives before Christmas to ensure
the house can smell like Christmas. Hopefully. Fingers
crossed. I think it does.
I've heard good things about that. Do we have any coming here?
I have zero idea.
What's that? I can bring a bag when it gets to...
Well, actually actually I mean
no one's going to be here

Raybert G. Stanbert says
junior based gingerbread coffee for the win

Oh, I read that one already.
I had to read it again.
It was too good.
That's good.
Raybert.
Stoned Ape says,
first super chat ever.
Abolish pride month.
Replace it with veterans month.
Good sir.
July is mega month.
Yeah.
The month of July
is mega month.
We'll take June.
June is pre-mega month.
We have to get ready to make a mega great again.
Vexcoon says, they killed Star Wars, Star Trek, Doctor Who, and Lord of the Rings, to name a few for me.
And don't get me started on some video games.
Yeah.
It's unfortunate. You know, like the the the fact that they they had to insert political ideology into Star Wars was a drag.
In my opinion, there's a couple of movies that were that were good, like Rogue One was great.
And that was totally sans political opinions.
And it had a female heroine that was like, you know, the main character.
And it made sense. And it made it was exactly it was great it was great writing but the biggest problem is that these these movies
that they're shoving the message into they have bad writers because you can still tell a good
story and actually have that have a message if you want if you have a good writer but it seems that
finding a good quality writer became
secondary and all of these properties suffered for it, which is a shame.
Yeah. All right. We've got RealHydroPX. Oh, it's the actual one, huh?
Right.
Tim, why won't you ever read an article from one of your amazing journalists? Why do you
use all sources but not from your own website? We don't have a news site.
So I'm glad that's cleared up.
There are no articles for me to read from.
That could explain it.
You did for a while.
We did, and we used the newsroom for almost every night on the show.
Yes, yeah.
But we no longer have a newsroom.
Jean L. says, Merry Christmas and happy new year you based basteds we need a documentary called
where the white women at could be huge bigger than what is a woman am i racist combined
gnell's coming in strong lately with the super chats you go solid
lurch says the obsession with anti-semitism is dumb. Jewish people are not entitled to be liked.
Sure.
I think the conflation of Israel criticism with anti-Semitism is really annoying.
Because clearly like Dave Smith is not angry at Jewish people.
Then there are some people who clearly hate Jewish people and Israel.
And largely because of what Israel does, they then conflate it with Jews, and then there are people just outright don't like Jews.
I generally don't like people who have based their worldviews off of
characteristics like that. If there's a legitimate criticism based on the actions of a particular
person or an organization or corporation or whatever, or even a cultural group or religion,
whatever it may be, that's totally fine.
I just don't care for people
who make their whole personality
about one group of people.
I don't care if it's the 1%.
I don't care if it's fascists
and white supremacists or the Jews.
It's like, my friends,
there's a whole world out there of powerful interests
that do bad things
and they come in all shapes and sizes.
So it's like, if someone came here and was, you know, John Stewart was talking about, well, Hollywood is disproportionately Jewish.
I'd be like, he's not wrong. So my critique of Hollywood does have an overlap in that regard.
But I don't think it's because they're Jewish. And then if someone were and also the banks are run by Irish people, which is really funny.
We pulled up the CEOs of all these banks. And then if someone came out and said, you know, Islam as a religion in the Hadith says to kill Jews. And I'm like,
it certainly does, but that doesn't mean I'm going to hold it against an individual Muslim
person on any other regard if they're opening a bank or something. So I think criticism where
criticism is due and merit where merit is due, respect where respect is due. And we want to
criticize the elements of all these things that are bad.
I think Christianity has some bad stuff in it, but Christians had a reformation
and an enlightenment, and that's a good thing. So that's what we want to do. We want to focus
on the good, and we want to critique the bad, and everybody's capable of good and bad, you know,
all that stuff. But I do agree, you know, there's a lot of people that claim—there are people who
are very pro-Israel and will literally say everything's anti-semitic like again dave smith being called anti-semitic because he criticizes
israel is stupid you're allowed to criticize governments all right enough of that it's also
really annoying because when when when things get into the israel palestine stuff it's kind of just
like we get it i'm like then we gotta talk talk about Ukraine and it's like, oh, geez.
All right.
Saravia says, far left and far right are both socialists, just different on how they control society.
Left is anti-national identity.
Right uses national identity.
Ginger Jack says, since Hassan came up, perhaps you should play Twitch or terrorist.
You should be able to find the site in the search.
Wait, really?
I'm Googling right now.
Is that like a quote and they have to figure out if it came from a Twitch streamer or a terrorist?
Because that sounds hilarious.
We should play that in the members only.
That would be fun.
Is that a thing?
Twitch or terrorist.
Please tell me that's an actual site.
It is.
Is it just one insult though?
Let's see.
Or are there quotes?
Don't cheat, Phil.
I'm putting the
i'm putting it into the into the slack right now if it's like a thing where it gives you a quote
and then you have to pick whether it came from a twitch streamer or a terrorist that'd be hilarious
but if it's just like insulting hassan it's like okay well whatever i'm looking let's see the first
thing that came up it brought up a picture of hassan and a picture of hassan bin laden
let's see corporate wants you to find the difference.
Yeah, it's a quote.
America has done nothing for you specifically.
Okay, wait, wait, wait.
Okay, okay, I get it.
We'll play this in the members only.
This is going to be fun.
There's a time limit on it too.
It's great.
All right, all right.
Good, good, good.
Let's grab some more super chats.
David M. says Christmas decorations go up right after Halloween.
No!
How dare you, sir?
You're fired.
I love this site.
Thanksgiving is pumpkin pie time.
But is eggnog the whole season?
Like, you could do eggnog.
I've never had it before Christmas.
A little prominent.
Yeah.
It's always Christmas?
Yeah, yeah.
My whole life, at least.
I'm pretty sure all the eggnog I've ever had has been, like, wrong.
And it's not supposed to be so thick.
You're supposed to mix it with something and rum.
I don't drink it, really.
Yeah, I've never actually had a real eggnog with rum in it.
You can also
take eggnog and then just cut it with milk
and that kind of thins it out a little bit.
Especially if you use skim milk.
What is eggnog?
I don't know.
I'll Google that too.
I don't know. It's got nut in milk. I'll Google that, too. Serge has got to know.
I don't know.
It's got nutmeg in it or something.
No one knows.
Yeah.
Polly Pure says goose is the Christmas bird.
Oh, goose.
Then what's pheasant?
I don't know.
It's made with milk, cream, sugar, egg yolks, and whipped egg whites.
And the mixture is often flavored with spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
It gives it a warm and comforting aroma.
It sounds like if I put that in an ice cream machine,
it's just ice cream.
Yeah, yeah.
Freeze it up a little bit.
Custard.
Roast it in custard.
If you put it in the freezer,
it's probably going to turn into...
Ice.
I mean, no, not ice.
It'll turn into like ice cream.
It won't.
Pause.
You have to churn it to make ice cream.
But the cream won't turn to ice.
But that's why, yeah, so we have an ice cream machine
and you freeze the bowl and then you put it in
and it's got like a plastic arm and it spins.
And so when you pour the, if you were to pour eggnog in it,
it freezes on the edge and the scraper pulls off the edge
and it whips it.
We got that at the Kessel.
Right.
Yeah.
Otherwise, what happens is you just get a hard bowl and you're like hitting it.
And then it's fatty, so it's not like ice, but it's not like good ice cream where you
can just scoop it up.
And then we have the tabletop one, too, where it's a flat metal sheet and then you pour
the cream on it and you take the scrapers like they do at the Cold Stone.
Right.
Oh.
Yeah.
Making ice cream is based AF.
Also, you got to get chickens.
Just, you know,
that's the side.
That's the theme of...
The theme of TimCast IRL.
Yeah, get chickens.
The tagline is
TimCast IRL,
where chickens are based.
We have the new skateboard
coming out,
the 28th Amendment.
That should be available in a week or so.
And it is a board, and it just looks like script and like old parchment paper.
And it says—
Have you showed the people yet?
I don't think so.
Okay.
But they'll see it.
It's got the best little doodle of a chicken ever.
And it says, chickens being necessary to the security of a free state,
the right of the people to keep, bear, and breed chickens shall not be infringed.
And I believe it should be an amendment although if we actually
did have an amendment like that it would be for the purpose of livestock in general but then it'd
be kind of a problem if people had cows in their apartments in new york but hey our rights are
right it's pretty wild i don't think the founding fathers even thought they needed to enshrine the
right to have animals isn Isn't that crazy?
True, because they figured it was just what it was.
Well, but like in America, America is a free country.
So like the whole idea of being free means you can do whatever the hell you want unless it's prohibited.
The reason why they had the Second Amendment was not because that you needed to grant people the right to keep
and bear arms it was to specifically say to the government you cannot touch this right when you
are in a free country you don't need permission you don't need stuff you don't need protections
you're just free to do whatever you want anything anything at all. That's what free means.
We live in a country now full of people that assume they have to ask permission to do things. to be restricted and limited by the constitution and the things that are not expressly and powers
that are not expressly given to the federal government the federal government doesn't have
in fact there's an amendment that says that it's the 10th amendment says if it's not expressly
given to the federal government then the powers are retained to the states or to the people
and uh leftists out there yeah you can do whatever you want,
but there are certain things you can't do
because their laws will not allow you to do that.
You can't just go around hurting people.
Well, there's...
I'm just saying.
But that comes with the...
You have the freedom.
Free freedom comes with responsibility.
You don't have the right to infringe on someone else's rights.
You don't have the right to hurt someone or destroy
someone else's property it's not yours these are things that honestly the concepts are not complex
they're not difficult to understand and once you hear someone articulate it it's like oh well yeah
i mean that that makes sense you know you of course just because you're free doesn't mean
you can just take other people's shit you you know? Pardon my French. Mouah. The French have a naughty language.
They do.
They do.
I just mean, like, anytime anybody says something bad,
they accuse the French.
Yeah, you say, like, C-U-N-T, and you're like,
oh, pardon my French.
Yeah, just literally any nasty thing you can say
is the French's fault.
They have a naughty language.
Well, French fries.
Well, that changes, like, country to country.
All right.
Country is, like, the rival country rival country will talk crap about them basically
Lillian May Briggs says
4th of July song first line
Start the barbecue and gather round
Let me tell you a story about an experiment called America
Now someone give me the next line
We can write that
Start the grill and gather round
Let me tell you a story
About how this country was found.
Boom!
The rock star nails it in a matter of seconds.
You must be a musician.
The words just come out.
The British came and they left fast because we were so tough.
Look, kiss my ass.
We kicked their ass.
Yeah, we kicked their ass.
So I think the song would have to be more like, you know,
the Christmas songs are about our experience during Christmas. It's not a, there are Christmas songs where be more like, you know, the Christmas songs are about our experience during Christmas.
It's not a there are Christmas songs where it's like, you know, the Lord has come and things like this.
But those are those are more traditional faith based.
The modern rock Christmas songs are like Jingle Bell Rock.
You know what I mean?
You know, I saw I saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus.
I need the mistletoe. So we need something like I saw a four-star general
launching fireworks in my yard
or something.
I don't know.
Something like that.
I saw Mommy Kissing George Washington.
Well, you know,
George Washington comes
to every good American's house
to promise them freedom
and leaves a copy
of the Bill of Rights
and the Constitution. Washington comes to every good American's house to promise them freedom and leaves a copy of the Bill of Rights.
And the Constitution.
Tripping over trauma says my country tis of thee.
I heard that the Star Spangled Banner is a Weird Al style cover parody.
Wait, what? Say what?
Francis Scott Key took an existing song and just wrote new words for it.
Yeah.
That's true.
Better words. So, you know, wrote new words for it. Yeah. That's true. Better words.
So, you know, it's copyright infringement.
Yeah.
Better words.
The story of the Star-Spangled Banner is actually really cool.
Yeah.
When he was actually in.
It was a flag and the soldiers kept pulling it back up.
And when the cannon fire would go off, you'd see the flag in the distance.
And the dude was there like on the ground.
Yeah.
Fucking amazing.
I think he was a prisoner on a ship, wasn't he?
Yes. Was he a prisoner?
But he was seeing it. Eyeballs.
And he would see the flashes and the light and the flag was still there. Based.
Let's go, America!
Who say that star-spangled
banner yet?
America's the best. It is.
Forward the line. Fuck the bad people.
Democrats. Leftists. You're done.
Alright, let's grab this one from, what have we here?
Unfiltered Aquarist says,
It's called Failing Forward. You learn and grow with just attempting new things.
True.
Smoke Detectors with Attitude says,
I no longer wish people Merry Christmas, but instead,
I now wish people I respect very based Christmas.
Based Christmas, Timcast.
Based Christmas back at you.
It's Seamus' fault that we all say based now.
Because he came to the show and he kept saying it,
and we were saying it ironically, and now we say it.
And you used to do the based AF
too. I still say based AF.
Chickens are based AF.
I guess there's a level.
Yeah.
Ghosts of Corey
Bing Bong says a Thanksgiving
banger exists. It's called Alice's Restaurant by
Arlo Guthrie. It's like 20 minutes
long. Amazing story. Movie sucks.
Don't watch.
Doesn't shock me that an Arlo Guthrie song is
20 minutes long. I was going to say Guthrie song.
Who's that guy? What's he do?
He sings, I understand. He's
an artist. I'm not sure
of any songs that are off the top of my head.
Would I know any?
Would you say, Tim?
What other holidays are there?
That you might have music for or need music for?
I mean...
General?
I feel like basically every modern...
Like, every song is already a Valentine's Day song.
Yeah, you know who's probably got...
Because it's either like...
It's either just like whorish degeneracy or it's love songs.
Whorish degeneracy.
There's a lot of love songs.
Yeah, so you don't really need a Valentine's Day one.
And then what's next?
St. Paddy's Day?
St. Paddy's Day, yeah.
You're drinking.
There's all the songs about drinking.
Dropkick.
Drunken Lullabies.
Yeah.
All of the Dropkick Murphys catalog.
Literally.
Entire catalog.
That's it.
St. Patrick's Day.
We got the Russian National Anthem for May Day. Labor Day. The Soviet. Patrick's Day. We got the Russian national anthem for May Day.
Labor Day.
The Soviet.
Or Labor Day.
What about Memorial Day?
May Day, 5th of May.
The workers.
No, I'm saying Labor Day.
Is that the same?
No.
No?
May Day and Labor Day
are different.
Labor Day is not a holiday.
May Day is leftists
going around and smashing things.
Oh, okay.
Labor Day is a recognized holiday
and when we celebrate labor
we play the Soviet anthem.
Someone keeps bringing up
Metallica's Don't Tread on Me
which is actually a good call. Yeah yeah do we have a memorial day song about the i'm sure

You liked purple on PCC the other day.
You were saying purple's your shit.
Ish.
The Elvin Airman says,
Everyone talks about the right to bear arms,
but no one ever asks where do the bear arms come from.
We must think of the bears.
Yes, that's right.
The right...
That's a funny family guy joke where they're like,
How could anyone misconstrue this?
The right to bear arms.
A pair of bear arms to put on your wall.
The right to bear arms will not be infringed.
That's why we have the Boonies skateboard at boonieshq.com.
The right to arm bears.
Literally right behind me.
How do I point?
There we go.
With your finger.
There we go.
I got it.
There it is.
Nice.
I'm pointing in the wrong direction, but it works on camera.
And it is a bear.
And I don't know why he's wearing a flannel or a hat, but he has a shotgun of some sort.
So it is based.
It looks good.
The right to arm.
That was Sam's idea.
So that's one of his pro model boards, as well as the boobies, which is the one behind
Raymond.
And it's a blue-footed booby bird.
And they're very silly birds that aren't scared of humans,
and so people find them hilarious.
Sam is killing the boards.
He's got good ideas.
Big7588 says, Thunderstruck.

Thunderstruck.
ACDC is fantastic.
