I mean, that's what happens with basically the progression of progressivism is you get to a certain point where no matter what you do or say is somehow, you know, there's no ground to stand on anymore.
Starting point is 00:01:56 The progression of progressivism. So once you progress enough, it's so progressed that there's no aggression to progress upon. It's like when you go so far to the right, you're on here's what i'm saying what does the lgbtq tag mean does it mean skittles and rainbows yes apparently or does it mean content relating to lesbian gay bisexual transgender and queer it's really offensive i think at all like if two gay guys kiss why do you have to put a g tag on there? That's the plus. What if two straight people kiss? Like what? Do you have to put an S text on there for sex? Straight.
Starting point is 00:02:27 For straight. Yeah, yeah. LGBTQ-IS. We need to put the S in that. Here's what I'm saying. What they're saying is you can never have a negative depiction of anyone LGBTQ. It doesn't count as LGBTQ because he's a bad guy. Yep.
Starting point is 00:02:39 Like, what do you mean? Gay people can be bad people. You know, like they're normal people. No, you change it. It's just instead of LGBTQ plus, it's LGBTQ minus. And it's bad people you know like they're normal people no you change it it's just instead of lgbtq plus it's lgbtq minus and it's just that you know it's gonna be a negative what's the evil because they don't they don't want people to evil to think jeffrey dahmer and like it's a stigma or something but what about what about movies like say they they slash them which is a horror movie that has to do with the LGBTQ community.
Starting point is 00:03:05 It's called They Slash Them? It's called They Slash Them. Wait, for real? How do you not know about that? I saw that movie with Kevin Bacon. I saw that on demand, and I was like, I thought maybe that it was what I thought it was about, but I was like, nah.
Starting point is 00:03:19 Oh my God, that's hilarious. So is horror movie They Them on Netflix? They Slash Them. The chilling tale of They Them offers an entertaining horror experience like no other. Movie goers, They Them is an intriguing tale of terror. The haunting narrative follows a group of LGBTQIA people that are forced to attend a conversion camp where they must survive the relentless efforts of a mysterious killer. Is that it? Just like he wants to kill him?
Starting point is 00:03:42 They Them is an empowering tale of queer resilience. Good for you. Do you guys see that uh there's two movies there's um one where this dude is like forcefully transgendered by a by a by a scientist oh yeah it was sigourney weaver i think she's the scientist is that yeah yeah i think it's a michelle rodriguez movie no no no you're thinking the other one i was gonna say this one is like the dude ran over the guy's daughter. So he kidnaps him and like forcefully trans, trans sex changes him. And then there's the Michelle Rodriguez one. Yeah. I saw that.
Starting point is 00:04:12 Yeah. That one was so, they're both so bad, these movies, but I think they're on Netflix. God, I'm going to have to watch. Are those bad movies that you're telling me about? But I'm saying like, is that, is that going to be labeled a transgender? The Michelle Rodriguez one is like, it's a, one is like, it's an effeminate hitman who gets kidnapped and turned into Michelle Rodriguez, but like Michelle Rodriguez is actually a woman.
Starting point is 00:04:30 And then Michelle Rodriguez is like, I used to be a man. Now I'm a woman. I'm going to get revenge. And it's just like, okay, I guess. That's your motivation. I prefer the guy's dog got killed and then he wants to kill everybody four movies in.
Starting point is 00:04:41 But are they going to label that transgender, right? I don't know. I know this whole Jeremy Dahmer being gay thing is new. I mean, I think I'd heard that he was back in the day. I didn't know that. And that was part of it was his parents didn't like it or something. So he went crazy. It's called The Assignment.
Starting point is 00:04:56 Oh, my God. Yes. Wow. Yikes. What is this? The Assignment. So known as Tomboy and formerly as Reassignment. What were they thinking with this movie?
Starting point is 00:05:08 Wow. Look at the budget. It was under $3 million. It made $388,000. I don't understand. Who directed it? Anybody of note? Rogue plastic surgeon loses a medical license and then-
Starting point is 00:05:18 Dude, this movie sounds awesome. I need to watch this movie now. It sounds great. I have a list of 300 bad movies that I need to watch. Wait, wait, wait. Scroll back up. Look who did the music. Where?
Starting point is 00:05:29 Giorgio Moroder. Wow, that's amazing. Is he talented? I don't know. Oh, he's like Sigourney Weaver. Yeah. Saban Films? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:40 That means it's trash. Look, I don't know. Whatever. Maybe some people like the movie. My question is, are they going to label it LGBT on Netflix? When did they start doing this? I didn't know that they had to label movies gay. That's really weird.
Starting point is 00:05:50 It is weird. And I tweeted about this. And I said, if white men have to own school shooters and women have to own Assata Shakur and Ava Braun or whatever, then they should own this too. There's bad people everywhere. How about this? Nobody has to own anything. And you own up to what you actually do in your own life.
Starting point is 00:06:07 It's not. How about that? I'm here at dvd.netflix.com, which is Netflix, and it says it's just a thriller and an action thriller. Weird. But very low scores, though. I mean, that is- Hold on.
Starting point is 00:06:18 Let me search for they, them. Three out of five. Search for they slash them on Medicare. Search Teletubbies. I like to pronounce the slash. them on Medicare. Search Teletubbies. I like to pronounce the slash. That's important. Search Teletubbies. They slash.
Starting point is 00:06:27 Them doesn't come up. No, I think you have to type out slash. Because he's like, it's a slasher. Does Teletubbies come up? I don't know. They them, no. It's they slash. All right, let's try this.
Starting point is 00:06:37 I'm going to try the L word. You guys know that show, right? Mm-hmm. That one's definitely LGBT. There you go. Look, LGBT. I click it. But in a positive
Starting point is 00:06:46 light? Well, I clicked LGBT to see are there negative movies in any way about LGBT and it looks like the answer is no. Birdcage. What the hell? Brokeback Mountain is LGBT? I thought that was just two cowboys. Whoa. They slashed them as
Starting point is 00:07:02 a 33% of critics reviews on Rotten Tomatoes with an average of 4.8 out of 10. So, yeah, that's bad. Can I ask a question, Tim? What other, like, kind of lifestyle choice? I don't know. Like, what other monikers are there for tags? You know, like.
Starting point is 00:07:22 Oh, dude, let's make up a new one. What else are they tagging? Let like oh dude let's let's make up a new one what else are they tag let's do let's make one uh vvp vvp we need one more letter very very pescatarian vegan vegetarian pescatarian and be free breatharian and vvp uh i'm vvp pg vegan vegetarian pescatarian or gluten-free oh yeah well i, yeah. Well, I'm looking at this. VVPG. I'm looking at the list you have up. Pescatarian, gluten-free, vegan, or vegetarian. GF.
Starting point is 00:07:53 PVV. Are you PVGG friendly? Or what about the Janists? You know, it's like this film may include violence against ants, you know? Yeah, may step on grass. So make a lie. May step on grass. Grass was stepped on in the nation
Starting point is 00:08:06 the Janus community is completely overlooked in this whole outrage you know what movie I think is really funny have you guys ever seen Ginger Snaps
Starting point is 00:08:13 oh no I've heard of that I've heard it's just like it's like yeah it's like this chick becomes a werewolf or whatever but it's funny
Starting point is 00:08:19 because I imagine the guy who made it was like eating Girl Scout cookies and he was like he's looking at the box of Ginger Snaps and he's like that should looking at the box of ginger snaps and he's like that should be a movie
Starting point is 00:08:26 ginger snaps what's it about she's like a werewolf or something look at some of these movies though boy culture these are awful eating out two sloppy seconds I didn't like eating out one but
Starting point is 00:08:43 sloppy seconds I'm gonna tell you guys a quick Sloppy seconds. Oh, that one was actually, you know, I didn't like eating out one, but sloppy seconds. I'm going to tell you guys a quick story. I used to work freelance at MTV Networks. Oh, here you go. Wait, wait. There's a LGBT horror slasher in the blood. Okay. So I used to do quality control where I'd have to sit there and I'd have to watch their
Starting point is 00:09:03 stuff, their video on demand stuff to make sure that it was technically correct and everything. And under the MTV network umbrella is Logo, which is like the gay channel. And so I would have to sit there and I have to watch their gay dramas. All of them, they're so bad. They're poorly done. They're poorly done. And it's not like, it's so weird. Like, oh, well, we don't see ourselves in movies and whatever.
Starting point is 00:09:32 It's like, no, there's tons of them and they're all terrible. Moonlight's a great movie. Moonlight's good. Is it though? Is it really? I like Moonlight. I like Moonlight. I love how they-
Starting point is 00:09:43 Folk Back Mountain, not bad. I love how they said that Moonlight was such an important movie and the black community is like, we're not watching this. I watched Brokeback Mountain with my hockey team when I was in high school. It was good. I think I saw it. What's Moonlight?
Starting point is 00:09:58 It was empowering. Is Moonlight something? Moonlight is the Academy Award winner from a couple years ago. So Tim watches the worst movies ever, but he doesn't watch the Academy Award. He'll watch She-Hulk, but he won't. That won the Academy Award. Moonlight? Why the fuck would I watch Moonlight?
Starting point is 00:10:13 What's this about? Nobody watched it. You won Best Picture. Nobody watched it. I did. I like Moonlight. I watched She-Hulk, and I regret every moment of watching it. But you do it.
Starting point is 00:10:25 I thought Brokeback Mountain was good. I'm. But you do it. I'm going to have to The thing about Birdcage was it was a good movie. It happened to have gay people in it, but you didn't have to tag it. It was never tagged in the 90s. It was a remake. It was a remake of a French movie. Interesting. But man, it was so good. It was Robin Williams.
Starting point is 00:10:41 It's got Hank Azaria. And then you don't have to tell people it's gay to get them to go watch it because it's already badass. Can you look up The Professional? That movie with... It's like Natalie Portman's first movie. That's about a relationship between like a 55-year-old and a... Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:57 Yeah, but they don't... Take a little girl. They don't actually... They aren't romantic technically. What do they call it? Helophilia? Like if you're attracted to adolescents
Starting point is 00:11:06 he's not attracted to her it's the one with what's her face that's the new one the original it's yeah brilliant movie it is a brilliant movie but
Starting point is 00:11:22 the subject matter you're like this is weird dude they cut it for American audiences so the version you saw is missing pieces no I've seen I've seen
Starting point is 00:11:33 yes the original is a little more suggestive well they they added like another 20 minutes to the director's cut so yeah is she young
Starting point is 00:11:40 was she under 18 when she did it she was like 13 she's like pretty pubescent it's yeah gross it's weird and they got her but they? She was like 13. She's like pretty pubescent. It's, yeah. Gross. It's weird. And they got her.
Starting point is 00:11:46 But they're not making out or anything. It's like nothing. She loves him. Normalizing it. And he's like pushing her back. Yeah, he's like struggling. Yeah, that's true. That is true.
Starting point is 00:11:57 She was in Sesame Street. Oh. Natalie? Yeah. Oh. She's like five feet tall, you know? Five foot tall. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:12:04 Garden State. Is that LGBTQ? Good movie know five foot tall oh my god Garden State is that LGBTQ good movie I don't think so no no it's pretty good but they have to put
Starting point is 00:12:11 a New Jersey tag so you know that you need to plug your nose before you watch it yeah Revenge of the Sith required
Starting point is 00:12:17 Blockbusters yikes what does that mean John Carter that movie flopped miserably I like that movie though I like John Carter. He's from Earth, so on Mars, he's super strength because the gravity is weaker, so he can jump
Starting point is 00:12:30 really high or whatever. I guess. It was a major bomb, but it was a cool movie. Willem Dafoe. I love it already. Yes. Did you guys see Netflix? People are going to cancel a quarter of their subscribers are about to cancel or something.
Starting point is 00:12:41 Why? Just because they can't afford it. At least that's what they said. The recession? Maybe. I'm going gonna cancel because they put these stupid tags on them when did they do that seriously i'm not even i'm done that's it when did you know you tell me what to watch yeah look at this one here's a quote tag i mean i know it's technically true but this is not the representation we're looking for well go fuck yourself dude oh no quintron doesn't like the lgbtq category also by the way like how are we supposed to know anything about the indian it says right there like lgbtq what the fuck dude
Starting point is 00:13:15 he did man he like some dude check this out some uh i think it was dommer there was a guy that he had like cut his brain out or whatever and the the guy escaped. And then the cops saw him. And he was like, and then they brought him back to Dahmer and then ate him. Whoa. Yeah, dude. Those cops. No, that's real. That's 100% real.
Starting point is 00:13:35 But also, Jeffrey Dahmer isn't the only gay person in the movie. So it's true too. Yeah. Gacy's gay. There's other gay people in it. Gacy was a pedo though. It's not L, B, T, or Q. So it should just say gay,
Starting point is 00:13:48 but then that, they might be like, is that like GQ? This movie's gay. I don't know what to say. I'm gonna say GQ. GQ. Yeah, GQ magazine.
Starting point is 00:13:55 It means gay and queer. Oh, wow. Checks out. Yep. That's really like offensive that they wouldn't expand their acronym along with the times. Not gentlemen's quartery.
Starting point is 00:14:04 Quarterly. Quarterly. Quarterly. Quarterly. Yeah, GQ. Just, you know. Yeah, I did not know that. Game queer. Thank you for telling me.
Starting point is 00:14:12 I want a leprechaun tag for anything Irish. Yeah, yeah. Any Irish films. Potato. Yeah, potato tag. Yeah, works for Polish. That's the road this is going down.
Starting point is 00:14:20 It's Irish or British. It's insane to me that it's like an element of the film is that he's gay. It's a huge component. It's literally what he was doing. It was killing and eating gay people.
Starting point is 00:14:28 And they're like, yeah, but don't let anyone know that gay is in it. Why not? Well, it's their own fault for putting the dang tag in the first place and thinking, you know, like people think we're woke if we do this and then we're good. I figured it out. Let's remove the tag. But on any movie without gay people, we put not LGBTQ. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:45 Problem solved. But they have categories for Hispanic, for black, for this and that. Yeah, potato. Cis. Is that what they call it? Cis. So if you take away that tag, they're going to go, oh, well, they're just homophobic now. So you have to have those tags.
Starting point is 00:15:02 But just don't put the movies in it that they don't agree with. I really got to talk about this. What the fuck? Oh, this is so good. I love this so much. It's my favorite thing on the internet. Richie, what is this? Okay, well,
Starting point is 00:15:15 when I originally saw it, I thought that that photo on the left was like completely real. I didn't realize it had been doctored. But that also makes it funnier because we're not just laughing. It's doctored but that also makes it funnier because like we're not just laughing you know it's it's doctored and now it's that's hilarious so the fact that she's complaining about getting photoshopped well so here's the story chloe grace moretz said that so here's this photo
Starting point is 00:15:36 you can see it they they photoshopped it to move her legs up so she looks like this weird peter griffin thing with no torso and then said, everyone was making fun of my body. She says meme with altered photo likening her to Family Guy character made her a recluse with anxiety. Okay, dude. Holy shit. Oh, it was taken. The photo was taken in 2016. It wasn't even like a recent thing.
Starting point is 00:16:01 But they just photoshopped it. It's like, bro, she's 25. Okay, she's 25 now. And they made a photoshop of you oh no holy shit dude you should not be in this profession it's like you became a public figure and there's this thing called the internet so go ahead and to be fair she was like a child she was a child actress and she didn't know so then she has to take that up with her parents probably no for sure but i mean if if she actually came out and said i never wanted to live this way and my parents misled me i'd be like wow yeah exactly and said you're like people on the internet made me look weird it's like like bro do you know how many pictures of me there on
Starting point is 00:16:36 the internet that look fucked up i think they're funny i saved some of them there's one that's really good the hot air balloon yeah the hot air balloon one? Yeah, the hot air balloon. I fucking love that one. My head is massive. The beanie is tiny. And then there's ropes hanging down from my head with a hot air balloon I'm standing in. And I was just like, who made that?
Starting point is 00:16:52 It's so delightful. It's so good. The best is when I see like somebody posts a photo and it actually has like your lower body in it. Like people just, the most common comment
Starting point is 00:17:02 is like, I've never seen Tim's feet before. There's one where it's me with my eyes cockeyed and I'm drooling. And then my head goes up and then gets really small. It's a tiny brain with a little beanie on it. I'm like, they're just good. It's just funny.
Starting point is 00:17:15 Like, I think it's funny. You mean it didn't leave you dealing with anxiety? I hide in my basement cowering in the corner because people make fun of me, I guess. Probably she doesn't have her outlet. Like she doesn't have a show where she can be like, this is actually who I am. So she's stuck with the public's perception. If they warp her, then she can't.
Starting point is 00:17:33 She doesn't have a way to be like, actually, guys. I mean, but let's. A lot of actors have that problem. But, you know, I mean, even though it is a Photoshop, obviously, I mean, she still has nice legs in it. At least you know what you can do. Actually, she can do. She's rich enough.
Starting point is 00:17:44 Just go buy a Faraday cage and just don't go on the internet anymore. I'm going to say it again. I don't know if these websites are real. I think they're wrong. But with a net worth of estimated around $12 million. You can afford a Faraday. I got to say, like, when I'm feeling bad and people are posting pictures about me and then I'm like, I'm so miserable.
Starting point is 00:18:01 I just pull out $100 bills. You just buy a Revolutionary War musket and then you're like, I feel better miserable. I just pull out $100 bills. You just buy a Revolutionary War musket and then you're like, I feel better now. Civil War, sorry. No, like I don't actually care that people are talking shit on the internet. I just, I don't give a shit. And the real issue is security threats
Starting point is 00:18:15 and things like that actually cost money. Chloe, look, I think Kick-Ass is a great movie. I think you did a great job and you're a wonderful actress. Congratulations. I would recommend that you take those copious amounts of money that you have, the many dollars, and whenever you feel in bed, just buy yourself a new car. Or get corrective surgery so that you actually look like the Photoshopped image.
Starting point is 00:18:41 It's like a Photoshop. Calm the fuck down. Daily Wire is doing this promo. Dude, Jeremy Boring is brilliant when it comes to this marketing stuff. The contest is to promote Jeremy's razors. And they're like, whoever promotes the most and gets the most referrals will win Jeremy's McLaren F1 or whatever the card is. And the top of it says, Jeremy bought aclaren f1 and drove it one time and he doesn't want it anymore you could win it but it's just great marketing but anyway i bring that up
Starting point is 00:19:10 just i'm thinking about this like when i'm thinking about how much money she has chloe is rich enough to have a hobby of buying new supercars like she could go on the weekends back i was feeling really shitty today so i went out and decided to buy a mclaren f1 i got a couple lotuses wait can i tell can i tell your audience the story of when i was talking about the car the other day and which car okay so i'm like i'm sitting in the kitchen i'm like i really want a 2015 dodge challenger scat pack stick shift with a sunroof in red and tim's like i got a blue one in the garage and i'm like i'm like you do not you do not and i go in there there's a 2015 scat pack stick shift and i'm like dude you don't drive stick you're like yeah i bought it as an investment i'm like
Starting point is 00:19:55 are you kidding let me drive this thing and so peeled out i did drive it and then i um asked your kind cameraman not to have the camera on because i burned rubber in first, second, third, and fourth. I've never burned rubber in fourth. What are you doing? No, no, it wasn't that way. It was like tasteful. It was, it wasn't, you know, it wasn't like,
Starting point is 00:20:11 it wasn't like, you know, it was like just a little skirt to see when you can, look, I treated her very well. Now I can never say the car. Yeah, I fired your, no, but I,
Starting point is 00:20:20 it was a crystal Dodge Challenger that had never been played and then Lizzo and Richie burned rubber in it. They're just a crazy car. You monster. That car is like. Discontinuing?
Starting point is 00:20:29 Yeah. You can get new tires. And so what happened was we had to buy a vehicle for the business. We had to get. And we ended up getting. What did we get? We got. What vehicle did we get?
Starting point is 00:20:38 I can't remember. We were buying. We need a car for picking up gas that can carry luggage and can seat like six. I don't think it was the Lexus. No, I think it was the Lexus. We needed something that we, like, we don't want to get like a, we actually were talking about getting a limo, a stretch, because they're actually comparable in price. They'd be pretty cool.
Starting point is 00:20:54 They're not as expensive as people think. Really hard to drive in the city and stuff. But no, I'm not talking about a big, long one. I'm talking, you get like, you stretch it by like a foot. And then what happens is on the inside, when you're being transported, you have room for your luggage, and then you can relax on the inside when you're being transported you have room for your luggage and then you can relax and turn the TV on. Oh, that's nice, yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:07 And it's the same price as a standard like, you know, six-seater SUV or something. It's not that much more money. But anyway, we were there and this 2015 Challenger was there, stick shift,
Starting point is 00:21:17 skate pack, all that stuff. And I didn't know anything about it but the guy, the sales guy, he's like walking through and said, normally these are the kind of cars we sell.
Starting point is 00:21:24 And then my brother told me, he's like, that car is only going to go up in value because they're limited edition and he was like it's worth twice as much now probably and so i've been watching the prices because i'm looking for one i mean literally that car what how many miles does that thing have on it like 30 none okay 13 12 maybe okay that's but yes the guy basically was like if you bought this put in your garage and just put a blanket like a cover over it don't let anybody put rubber but it's like in a couple years it's it's worth more money yeah and so my issue is like people people need to understand this too about net worth and and money when i was younger i was like why would a rich person buy this big mansion it's pointless like shane smith of vice he bought a 24 million dollar
Starting point is 00:22:03 mansion in santa monica i'm like why why would you do that you don't need it why why do you want to live in how do you people need to understand this these big mansions you have to maintain money yeah i'll tell you guys i'll let everybody in a big secret it's just private information but the building we're in originally was a small house that burned down this is what we were told the cast castle was originally this tiny little house it burned down and the insurance what we were told. The Cass Castle was originally this tiny little house. It burned down and the insurance payment was big enough that they were able to
Starting point is 00:22:30 make this bigger house. Like five times the square footage. The building's like 10,000 square feet livable. It's huge. We got it because we knew we were going to be turning studios, offices, and working business out of it. Plus like a skate area and the green room. We needed a big bar thing. That's what we have in the basement.
Starting point is 00:22:46 But for the people who did it, they were just a regular middle class family. They were probably thinking, and I don't know for sure, but they were probably thinking, hey, we got this big insurance payout. If we build a bigger house, it'll be worth actually more. So if we spend $600,000 on construction, we can sell it for a million or something like that. What they didn't realize is that houses this big require staff. Because
Starting point is 00:23:08 when you have a family of three kids, okay, so you have four rooms being used. The mom and the dad share a room and the kids each have their own room. And there's eight bedrooms and eight bathrooms. So what ends up happening is a pipe burst and no one notices for a week and now you've got serious water damage. So you need the house to be filled
Starting point is 00:23:24 or you need a staff member to be walking around doing checks. We get a leak in like an area of the house we don't use as often. It's a disaster. So we have to have someone who goes to the house every day and just makes sure because it's so big. But with more employees in it, using all the space, whenever a problem happens, we notice it right away.
Starting point is 00:23:41 So they sold. They were like, we made a mistake. It's too big. That's what people don't get. But here's what I realized. The reason why people buy this stuff is because you cannot just have US dollars the way the US economy is set up. With quantitative easing with the Federal Reserve, if you
Starting point is 00:23:54 just say, okay, I got $100,000. I'll put it in the bank and save it. Congratulations. In five years, it's worth half as much. So you got to buy a Challenger. And you put it in the garage. You don't use it. You don't buy it because you want to drive it. You buy it because the value just keeps going up and you're retaining your, it's an investment so much as it's a hedge. So I have to buy two Challengers so that I can have one that's an investment and the
Starting point is 00:24:13 other one for burning rubber. Well, I'll tell you, you know, uh, we'll, we'll, we'll sign a contract to bring you onto the company as a sign on bonus. We'll do the driver. Okay. Now we're talking. Okay. That's shit's going to be worth more. Now you're speaking my language.
Starting point is 00:24:26 That specific car will be worth more when people know you drove it. Like Lizzo's flute. Actually, we're making a car. We're making the first ever Timcast EV. It's going to be the first. We're talking with this local fabricator and manufacturer who can fully design and develop. It's going to be expensive i think it'll cost us maybe like 100k maybe 200k to make a legit like leather interior really nice custom operating system probably is linux not going to have all the bells and whistles
Starting point is 00:24:57 of tesla or anything like that but we're going to make one and then we're going to do a commercial where it's going to be like we're trying to figure out what's the right shell you know so we have a chevy cobalt 2006 with 230 000 miles on it we're gonna give that away in a contest so we're gonna do like a win a free car contest then it turns out you're winning this this junk or scrap car but uh we're trying to figure out what shell we should use for the ev my brother was like we should do a vw van but people have done shitloads of those and they're really expensive to buy because people do want electric vw vans so we got to find a good car like a gremlin or something that we can turn into a luxury electric vehicle you know i like the idea there's some good i mean there's some really cool like
Starting point is 00:25:40 old defunct cars from the 50s and stuff you like nash or something like that some some kind of car that hasn't existed in 30 40 years you know so we're gonna make it a citroen or like all these cars yeah yeah like the old ones though back from like when you saw a car and you're like a german made that or you saw citroen you're like that's so french like that looks like a french person made that you know what i'm saying like just look at an old Citroen from 1960 and then look at a BMW from the same era and you can see the cultures in the design. We're going to get the interiors custom. So are you looking for the body to be steel, fiberglass?
Starting point is 00:26:16 Do you have a preference? Whatever. Those old ones, are they all steel? Yeah, they're probably pretty dang heavy. Or a Beetle. An old Beetle, that's probably pretty light. What's the hook to give it away? Are you going to be selling razors?
Starting point is 00:26:28 Give it away? No, we're going to do a commercial for it and sell it. Oh, you're going to sell it. We're going to do custom hard print signatures in it, and it'll be the only TimCast electric car in existence. Okay, I thought you were going to sell a product and say, hey, you know, buy this product and then if you do, then we'll give away the car. I was thinking we would sell
Starting point is 00:26:52 it and then just, it would be like, I don't expect to make a shill of money off it, but it would be like a unique promotional thing where only one of these cars are in existence. The giveaway would be the beater. The 250,000 mile beater. That was,000 mile beater. That was the one from earlier. I think what we should do is a contest for members where it's like
Starting point is 00:27:08 someone had the idea that every month we should do something like we either give a thousand bucks or we give something away. And I'm like, that's actually a good idea because it's promotional. It gets people to sign up to become members. And we should look into the legalities because we could do cool stuff. We could do like, hey,
Starting point is 00:27:24 on the last day of the month, we're going to announce a member chosen at random through a random number generator because every member internally, there's like a number associated with them. And then we'll say this month, we're giving away- Guitar. A guitar. Sign one. Right.
Starting point is 00:27:36 A signed guitar to a member. So that's probably a great way to get people to sign up to become members. That sounds like a great incentive, actually. That'd be badass. We could do three things. We could do first, second, and third. We could say the first choice will get this guitar. It's valued at X.
Starting point is 00:27:50 Second place will get $1,000. Third place will get $500. Yeah. So to come full circle, you're basically doing that scene in Garden State where Natalie Portman goes like, blah, blah, blah, boo. And she's like, nobody in the universe has ever done that before. That was completely original. You're doing that with a car.
Starting point is 00:28:05 Yeah. I actually did that before she did that in that movie. Oh, damn. Yeah, see? When I was younger, like I was complaining about how everything was always just routine. And so I would like make up gibberish words as a point. And so like hanging out with my friends, I gave them all random gibberish names. And then I was like. See, this makes a lot of sense now. Now you've grown up and you're all random gibberish names and then i was like what i was like this makes a lot of sense now now you've grown up and you're making a gibberish
Starting point is 00:28:28 car that's great yeah i told one once you create i was like from now on you're octalopina puffer scope and i was like i'm just gonna say something random that's not been said because i'm tired of everything it's so fucking boring and then you know my other friend thought it was hilarious he started doing it 26 letters is not that many we need more for what arabic has 20 alphabet oh what's that arabic has 29 that's too many too many take pull it back like so it's i mean honestly it would make it easier to understand these ridiculous english words yeah english w like was you not enough they They needed a double U? And it's a V anyway. What the fuck, yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:05 I think the saying goes that English is a tough language, but it can be mastered through thorough thought, though. Yeah, English sucks. Through thorough thought, though. Through thorough thought, though. Through thorough thought, though. You want to hear the funniest sentence ever? Buffalo, buffalo, buffalo, buffalo, buffalo.
Starting point is 00:29:30 I think there's probably a longer version of that too yeah i think so though what that really means is you lost me at buffalo so here's what i said and you know arabic the buffalo animal from buffalo new york is bullying another buffalo from buffalo new york that's what the sentence means buffalo is to bully, it's a verb. So if you said Buffalo, Buffalo. I didn't know Buffalo. It would be like saying Chicago. My mom's from Buffalo, so I should know. Chicago, Chicago masons punched, you know,
Starting point is 00:29:53 New York plumbers. But if, you know, so Buffalo, Buffalo. Yeah, wow. Buffalo, Buffalo, Buffalo. Just to clarify, you are fluent in Arabic? You ought to be quays. Badass. You have to be order them.
Starting point is 00:30:04 I mean, it was, I'm not arabic is weird because a the spoken language varies so much across region so like moroccan arabic like a saudi and a moroccan would be better off speaking english to each other if they both spoke english decently well because it's just like it's way different and so you learn fusha which is like basically modern standard written arabic and then you go to learn it. And so I studied that for two and a half years, five days a week for three years. And then I went to Jordan and the people,
Starting point is 00:30:30 if you speak that standard Arabic, laugh at you like in your face. So you have to learn then the spoken version. It'd be like learning Shakespearean English and then going up like Harlem or like Alabama and being like, where to should I get, you know, and then they just laugh at you.
Starting point is 00:30:47 So you, it's my Jordanian colloquial. I can have, yeah, I can carry a conversation with a Jordanian, no prior a Palestinian. But not Egypt. Sure.
Starting point is 00:30:57 Okay. Does it work in Egypt? Oh, I said, I said what in colloquial Jordanian? No. So Egyptian, their,
Starting point is 00:31:02 their accents weird, like they pronounce all their job. So if I were to say University of Georgetown, Jamia Georgetown, they'd say Gamia Gortown. It's really weird. So when you hear it, unless you're comfortable listening to it and speaking it, but Egyptian, all their news is in that dialect. So actually with Egyptian, it's easy for me to understand it,
Starting point is 00:31:24 but I can never communicate. What about Morocco? Morocco is completely impossible. It's like French, Spanish, Arabic, all combined. And if I hear Moroccan speaking Arabic, I have to ask him like, you know, a million different times to repeat the word and it's all pronounced differently.
Starting point is 00:31:37 But you could understand an Egyptian? Yeah. So how far West can you get before it starts breaking down and becomes harder to understand? Like basically Egypt. Because, like, once you get to Libya, Tunisia, there's a lot of French influence and it starts to get weird. In Chile, they would say their S's like th. So, like, in Chile, efta, como efta.
Starting point is 00:32:00 I think it was because... They did it in Catalonia. Is that because one of the leaders had a lisp? That's the legend. Yeah. The Catalan king had a lisp, so everyone wanted to sound like him because it was because they did it in Catalonia. Is that because one of the leaders had a lisp? That's the legend. Yeah. The Catalan king had a lisp so everyone wanted
Starting point is 00:32:07 to sound like him because it was like proper so they said lisp, theravatha. In South America, in Uruguay for instance or Uruguay
Starting point is 00:32:15 as they pronounce it, Uruguay, they say sha instead of ya. So I had a friend who spoke Spanish but it was Uruguayan and so when she was
Starting point is 00:32:24 teaching me Spanish it was improper dialect for Mexican Spanish. Como te llamas. So she would say, ayudame, instead of ayudame. Yeah. Yeah. Is that how it is in Arabic, too? Because the old leaders. Yeah, see, but and then with Arabic, it's like five different letters that get pronounced
Starting point is 00:32:38 differently. So it just makes it super weird. I was doing nonprofit fundraising. And when you're out in the street in Chicago and you're like waving to people, you say like, you know, hey, would you, you know, like donate or whatever. You talk to people. And then every so often you bump into someone who speaks Spanish. Oh, no, no, no, no English. You have a Spaniola.
Starting point is 00:32:56 No, no, no. And so then my friend was it was like, just say I didn't know those ninos. They some parados. And then I was like, you got it. And then I remember one day there was like this little, like this little like Mexican woman walking down. And I was like, I was like, hello, do you want to talk to me? And she's like, no, no, Inglés.
Starting point is 00:33:12 And I was like, mi amiga, ayuden a los niños desamparados. And she went, oh, los niños. And I was like, si, si, los niños desamparados. And she went, oh, no, no, no. And she went to her person and she handed me five bucks. Yep. There you go. What was the, San Peratos?
Starting point is 00:33:29 What is that? It's the place where they're. Help the children who have nothing. Oh, my gosh. Something like that. I'm not fluent. Wait, what was the last word? San Peratos or something?
Starting point is 00:33:40 Oh, sin. Sin means without. Oh, okay. Sin Peratos? I don't know. I don't know. So she handed you five bucks, but means without. Oh, okay. Seen parados? I don't know. So she handed you five bucks, but you were trying to get. Were you doing the thing that was like the subscription thing? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:53 So it was like completely ineffective, but I was like, okay. Did you take the five bucks? Well, we were allowed to take cash as well. And what happens is when you sign someone up. Unemployed. There you go. Is that what it means? Unemployed?
Starting point is 00:34:03 Help the children. Parados means unemployed. Oh, okay. So you go. Is that what it means? Unemployed. Help the children. Barados means unemployed. Oh, okay. So without employment. That's what it says here. But when, at this company, when someone signs up, you multiply that by seven. So if someone says, I'll give you 10 bucks per month, it counts as $70 brought in for the day.
Starting point is 00:34:18 So if they give you five bucks, it's five bucks. And how much would you make from that? 35%. Yeah. It was like a commission. Oh, I made fucking insane cash. Yeah. Because here's what would happen.
Starting point is 00:34:27 I would come back with $300 in monthly contributions. They would multiply it by seven. That's $2,100. And then I would get 35%. So they'd tack on $650 to my paycheck for one day's work. And I'm like, but I didn't bring in. And they said the average contribution is $17. This was back in 2008.
Starting point is 00:34:49 And the average person gives for seven months. So we multiply all contributions, monthly contributions by seven. If you choose to take a one-time contribution, by all means, if you can convince someone to give you 300 bucks right now, we would rather have someone give us 25 bucks a month because you're more likely
Starting point is 00:35:06 to get them for a long time. So we're wondering why the economy collapsed in 2008. It was because Tim was, you know, basically all these people were like, wait, I just got roped into the, where'd my money go? I was fucking- It's like a Netflix, Tim's like, when you forget about it, you forget how you're paying.
Starting point is 00:35:20 This was a job where people struggled to make minimum wage and were fired all the time because they couldn't make quota. Me and my friends, they were like, you have to go out for eight hours. You get a location to go to. Then at the end of the day, you come back. You know, we would meet me and my two other friends. We'd go out.
Starting point is 00:35:36 We'd go meet back. We'd be at like state and I don't know, fucking state and lake or something in Chicago. And we would get off the train and then we'd be like, all we'll meet back here in 15 like all right we would split up and then 15 minutes later come back and be like okay i got three signups like yeah i got four it's like i got two but it's good enough for the day and then we would go home and play video games and then at five o'clock get on the train go back to work and be like we were able to sign up three people yeah two people and they were like that's really good because you needed to get an equivalent of 17 in monthly subscriptions per day for quota and we would we would just like in 10 minutes i'd get someone to get 10 for 25 bucks what time of day would you go out 9 a.m before
Starting point is 00:36:16 work when they were going into work in the loop yeah yeah so you're you're but you're there all day so during lunch and so that we would go on top of the marina city towers you know the marina city towers where's that? Those are those big cylindrical, right off the river. And they look, they're like... Oh, the ones on the Wilco album cover. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So what we would do is we would hang out at the bottom first floor where the elevator was.
Starting point is 00:36:37 And we would just like stand there talking. And then as soon as someone walked out, we'd then walk in the building, take the elevator up to the roof, and just chill on the roof and just shoot the shit. And just, this is like, iPhones weren't around and we do nothing back in the glory days and then it's funny cuz like one day you know what my one friend would be like he's like man now I need to make money cuz I want to buy you know like a PlayStation or something so like okay so then he would actually do the full eight hours and he'd come back with like $1,500 in monthly signups. And then like he's going to get hundreds of dollars off of that just for that one day's work.
Starting point is 00:37:09 He's like, yeah, I got enough for the place and I'm good. So as long as we – it's like rent was paid. So are they hiring? Always. They're always hiring. The thing is like – And they're the worst people on the planet. They're awful.
Starting point is 00:37:21 And that's why I quit because when I found out that they were lying and the information they were giving us was bad i was like bro i thought i was doing i thought i was good at something good weren't they encouraging you to lie to people when you after i found out they were they were publishing lies and i said hey i can't say this is not true they were like just say it anyway and i was like okay like i thought i came here to be good at something that was doing good and then i found out that it was just complete bullshit. And it was, in my opinion, it's all a racket. And once you find out, because you were getting a 35% commission,
Starting point is 00:37:55 imagine what they were getting. Imagine $100 comes in. I know this only is. It's only like $5 that actually goes to the charity. It's clever. Check it out. It's clever. Check it out. It's ridiculous. No, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:38:07 All of it went to the charity. Was it the Clinton Foundation? Were you working for the Clinton Foundation? $5 actually helps people. It's all like administrators. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. What the nonprofits do is called outreach. So 100%, they say 95% of all money that comes in
Starting point is 00:38:24 goes towards the cause and people go, wow. And the CEO that comes in goes towards the cause. And people go, wow. And the CEO is like, I'm the cause. Exactly. Yeah, exactly. It was a 501c4, not a 501c3. So it was a political organization. And they said, if anyone asks, our official rating is 90% charitable, 10% administrative,
Starting point is 00:38:44 which is a really really good number yeah and so we would tell people like you give me 10 bucks we have to put one dollar towards administrative and if people get mad about that explain to them like we got to buy paper don't we we got it we got to pay for the electricity electric bill and they go oh okay the 90 was me yeah caviar is not administrative you as the person on the ground, telling people that there were political crises was the charity. Get it? The argument was, when you raise money from someone, that money is to pay you to keep raising money for people. Yeah, I get it.
Starting point is 00:39:17 But it's because telling people on the street. This is what they said to us. I asked them, I was like, what's the charitable? And they said, it's you guys. And I was like telling people on the street. This is what they said. They said to us, I asked him, I was like, what's the charitable? And they said, it's you guys. And I was like, we're the nonprofit. They're like, yes. Don't you get it? Every day you go out, you're informing people who otherwise didn't know that there was an
Starting point is 00:39:36 environmental crisis. And I was like, okay, but it sounds like we're fundraising. They're like, you're informing people, right? I was like, yes. And they're like, you deserve to be paid for informing people right like yes and they're like well there you go dude that's that is the clinton foundation it's like what are you doing oh just give us this money and we're gonna help all these struggling countries and you're like okay so you got all the money and now what's happening it's like you are it you're a struggling country now like we
Starting point is 00:40:00 got all the money me telling you the problem was the advocacy but so what happened was um there was internal politics that made me not want to work there and then when i i came back to a different branch in a different state they they had us lie about deep water horizon and what happened was i was out talking to some guy in california and i said this just happened the deep water horizon spill this is serious and so we're trying to generate advocacy make sure people know what's happening and then the guy looks at it and he goes this is not true and i was like what's not true it's like the amount of gallons that you're saying spilled it's substantial it's like a tenth of that and then i was like oh my bad i didn't realize are you out here fucking lying to me to make money and then i was like dude i just work for a profit
Starting point is 00:40:41 this is this is the stuff they give us and he's like maybe you should do some fucking research before you go tell people to give you money for a cause it's fake and then I was like fair point dude and I took it I took it out of the binder and I folded up and I was like I won't bring that up again and he was like you shouldn't and he walks away I immediately called the office and I was like hey this is I I like so I had I can't remember this was uh 2010 whatever, phone internet. And I was like, no shit. Like check web browser. Like the number's wrong.
Starting point is 00:41:09 And then they were like, don't worry about it. Just finish out the day and then we'll, we'll figure it out. And I was like, dude, I'm not going to lie to people for money. That's fraud. And they were like, no, no, no, no, no. It's fine. It's fine. Just keep going.
Starting point is 00:41:21 And I was like, no. And if I, if you want me to read this, I'm going to come back with no signups. And they were like, you have to make quota. Then they hired Don Lemon and Joe Scarborough to take your place. We were outside. They were willing to do it. I was outside the CNN building. Yep.
Starting point is 00:41:36 I was, I was literally across the street from CNN and it's right by Amoeba music in Los Angeles. You guys know where that is? Oh yeah. Yeah. Was that in Sunset? Yeah. Sunset. I was, I was right across the street. There's like a cafe,
Starting point is 00:41:48 Kitty Corner. I love that area. That's where Theater of Note is. All right, we've gone a little long, so we're going to wrap it up there. Richie, it's been a blast. Thank you for having me. I look forward to burning rubber
Starting point is 00:41:56 sometime in the near future. That's right. And for everybody who's a member, thanks for supporting our work, making it possible. We got more awesome stuff to be built with your support, and we'll see you all next time.
