Starting point is 00:00:00 My friends, the left, many of these critical race theorist type people, they don't like me. So they have to claim that what I do is not journalism, but it's wrong. While I'll be the first to admit most of what I do is political commentary, cultural commentary and news commentary, etc. No, I actually do the digging. And this morning when I wake up, I go and I look at all of these different news stories claiming that Reddit is pumping silver, that they've decided GameStop, GameStop is out. No one cares anymore. Everybody should go buy silver.
Starting point is 00:00:31 And I thought, that sounds weird. That doesn't sound like Reddit. They wouldn't just stop. They've been saying diamond hands, you know, hold the stock, don't sell. So I go to Reddit. What do I see? The number one post on the entire website, not just Wall Street bets, is don't buy silver. Bloomberg ran a segment titled Redditors lose interest in GameStop, and it has never been more brazen. The desperation from the machine over what Reddit has done is it's they are so desperate. desperate in fact they're completely exposing themselves and this has been a trend over the past several months you can now go to reddit show your friends and family hey look see how they're saying don't buy silver it's a scam and fake news here's every mainstream
Starting point is 00:01:16 outlet you know and trust lying to your face it's crazy well we got some big news too you see the game is rigged, my friends. It's not just the media, but apparently the NSCC, which is the principal clearinghouse for stocks, told Robinhood, the trading app, that they had to deposit $3 billion, secured deposit. And when they eventually negotiated down, saying we can't do that, they said $700 million. I believe it was $700 million, But you also have to freeze these stocks. When you finally find a way to win, they shut you down. Now, initially, I titled this podcast, it was the feds. Why? Because the initial story that I had said federal regulator intervenes.
Starting point is 00:02:00 And turns out NSCC is actually a private entity, a subsidiary of the DTCC. And as Ian put it, we were discussing this, like trying to figure out what the right title would be. He said it's convoluted on purpose. So we've got a bunch of crazy news today. It's not just about what's going on with the GameStop rebellion, because I do think that's important. But we also have, you know, unrest in Rochester after cops pepper sprayed a nine-year-old
Starting point is 00:02:21 girl. We've got the SWAT team raiding the Red Lion Hotel because left-wing activists occupied it. We've got China threatening war over Taiwanese independence. There's a lot to go through. Joining us today, of course, I mentioned Ian. He's chilling. Well, hello, everyone. Thanks for coming and thanks for having me, Tim.
Starting point is 00:02:38 You were mentioning that it was convoluted on purpose. It's insane, dude. It's like the Federal Express, which I don't know if they really wanted you to think it was actually a federal company but the of course the federal reserve also not a federal company an arm of the bank of international settlements a swiss bank one of many uh central banks throughout the world like the bank of england and the bank of australia that are not uh governed by their government this is ian's time to shine hello the federal reserve all this stuff that's what i was thinking when i looked at nscc i was like wait is this not what is this entity it's not regulated part of, wait, is this not – what is this entity?
Starting point is 00:03:06 It's not regulated as part of the government. It's a private entity. What is this? Because I was reading an old article talking about how it was effectively supposed to be handling some kind of regulatory body like work. It's not. It's a private entity. No, and I think at some point it would be fair to make it illegal to call your company federal anything. I thought it was.
Starting point is 00:03:22 I would like – I mean federal express is legit just a private company i know but yeah it's just federal express just a name it's a brand just a name we'll get in all that we got we got the casby hey hey if you could if you can make yourself sound official you are official that's the rules by the internet i mean right am i wrong here yeah also when you look at silver and when you type it into google the first articles that come up first google puts up a big memo. It says silver prices surge to eight year high. But the first article is by The Wall Street Journal that says silver prices jump in GameStop like frenzy.
Starting point is 00:03:55 Then it's The New York Times. Silver rises with hype. It's the next GameStop. And again, just absolute propaganda disinformation which of course we're going to be countering here welcome back beautiful and amazing human beings this is lucardowski of wearechange.org you want to get involved with what i'm doing i have many different ways you can on wearechange.org forward slash donate because you do i'm here thank you ladies and gentlemen we got an awesome sponsor today oh yeah a big shout out to safeandreadymeals.com. This is emergency food supplies. You can go to safeandreadymeals.com. We've got a two-week food supply. There's a four-week food supply.
Starting point is 00:04:31 And you get a fairly decent, around 20% or so discount when you go and pick up this food. It lasts for about 25 years if stored properly. And it's really that simple. It's this big bucket you get. You peel it open. You got a bunch of different bags of stuff inside. It's really easy to do. You open a bag. You put it in a pot. You mix it with some water. It's fantastic.
Starting point is 00:04:50 And one of the reasons we're doing a shout out for safeandreadymeals.com is because for those of you that don't live on the East Coast, we're currently being slammed by a blizzard. And I went out because I had to go run some errands. Everything is shut down. I live in the middle of nowhere. So we don't have a lot of good road service or anything like that. Everything's closed.
Starting point is 00:05:08 KFC was closed. The restaurants were all closed. It was particularly difficult. So you know what we did? We came back and we actually had one of these. We cracked open and we used pancake mix as a deep frying batter. It was fantastic. So I'm not saying you need an emergency food supply, but I am saying this.
Starting point is 00:05:24 Sometimes, like, actually, but I am saying this. Sometimes, like, actually, let me phrase it this way. A lot of people think this stuff is all about the apocalypse. Buy this stuff because you think the world is ending. That's not the case. We have some because sometimes it snows so bad that it's hard to get to the store. And we're like, well, let's see what we got in the pantry. Turns out we ran out of bacon and other food.
Starting point is 00:05:43 And we were going to go to the store and then we didn't. And then we should have. I don't know if you guys have ever seen that that viral video where the guy's screaming you got to get the milk bread and eggs and he's running to his car because they said snow listen sometimes it snows sometimes it rains and it makes it hard to go out and buy stuff so safe and ready meals.com special thanks you can pick up your emergency food supply it's 25 20 or so percent off when you go check it out there's time to say something yeah there was no eggs at the supermarket i just came from there. I barely made it.
Starting point is 00:06:06 But I also barely made it here, and I live in the parking lot. That's how bad it is. That's pretty bad. You went to the store, and then you were trying to make it back, and you were having trouble. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But luckily I did, and everyone's going 20 miles an hour, and I still have to shovel the snow off of my RV, which I'm not looking for. Oh, we've got to get another video.
Starting point is 00:06:23 We went to a Mexican restaurant. It was closed and there was no signs or anything and we were confused. And then I was like, I don't understand what's happening. And so like we drove around and everything was empty with no notifications. And then I was like, did they get raptured or something? I'm thinking they're just gone. Because of COVID, they're looking for an excuse. They're slow anyway.
Starting point is 00:06:42 No, no, it's the blizzard, bro. No, it's the blizzard. It might be a combination of both not a conspiracy we went to one restaurant conspiracy we went to one restaurant and finally this thing on the door saying due to inclement weather we will we will be shutting down and i'm like dude we went we went to one place it's like an adventure center with a with a with food and it's like supposed to be for like hiking even they were closed so i was like we went back we cracked open one of these boxes and we use used the instant pancake mix as deep frying batter.
Starting point is 00:07:06 I just want to add about Safe and Ready Meals. One, once you crack it open, you can use the bucket as a trash can. It's really convenient. True, too. Yeah. Correct. Those are really good pancake batter dips. We made deep fried.
Starting point is 00:07:17 We had to find bacon. We found bacon at the gas station. And deep fried mozzarella, which is not as delicious. That was awesome. Dude, it worked out so well. It was amazing. Yeah, I have a funny story about this. So we had a guest here and he was like, hey, can I have one of those safe and ready things?
Starting point is 00:07:31 And I was like, what? Are you crazy? He's like, yeah, ever since I was here last time and he gave it to me, I really want another one. So I mixed him up one of those while he was here. And I was like, that's really weird. I'm really glad you enjoy it. That's like their mac and cheese. Yeah, it's like you get a packet, you put it in a bucket.
Starting point is 00:07:45 That was a really long promo, but I thought it was a funny story. That's why we were shouting them out because I'm like, you know, we're in this blizzard right now. And I'm like, this is it. The people want to embarrass you and they want to smack talk me saying, oh, you sold those food buckets. I'm like, yes. And now sometimes there's a blizzard and it shuts the roads down.
Starting point is 00:08:00 You can't go to the store. You can just crack one of these things open. Worst case scenario is you eat food. We deep fried it in peanut oil by the way yeah we did bacon wrapped chicken and then bread and deep fried it was amazing it was probably not the healthiest thing in the world okay anyway go to timcast.com become a member and check out we actually have a bonus episode we do with eliza blue talking about a bunch of things youtube will ban us for talking about and it's a pretty serious conversation um so again tim TimBass.com, you can become a member.

Starting point is 00:08:59 But look, I got to be honest. I really wanted to talk about the Blizzard. I still want to talk about deep-frying food. Yes. That's my wheelhouse. This is Blizzard.izzard it's like news and it's fun because there's snow everywhere i mean i i got it i got a big truck with some cojones on it and that thing was moving around not too good out there yeah you got four by four yeah yeah and that was even a little sketchy out there but my my dog really loves the snow she's going crazy over yeah she's
Starting point is 00:09:22 going absolutely you know i'm exploiting it to the fullest extent by the way on my instagram luke we are changed just you know just as a casual she loves this has been your weather report and by the way news it's snow i looked up a utah's government website uh explained that we really are still in an ice age so that last 12 800 years ago we were peppered by comets and the glaciers melted, but we're still in like the interglacial part of the ice age where it's receding. So this warming
Starting point is 00:09:49 is actually probably kind of normal and we're just headed out of the ice age. You sound like a climate change denier. Yeah, check out Ice Age Utah and you can read all about it.
Starting point is 00:09:58 Interesting. Well, we're not here to talk about the weather anymore, my friends. I want to show you. Google, take a look at this. Go to Google and type in silver and Reddit and you you see all these top stories silver is the
Starting point is 00:10:08 new short squeeze target for reddit traders these market analysts blah blah blah move over game stop reddit traders are targeting silver now new york post reddit's epic silver squeeze is only helping wall street this is the most brazen and insane fake news i have ever seen i apologize to those of you have watched the rest of my content throughout the day because this is the main thing i've been harping on in every single video i don't really do that sometimes i'll get you know sometimes but this is the craziest thing i've ever seen seriously share this i okay look let me let me show you this post right here from Wall Street Bets. It is a bloom. Someone's watching Bloomberg and you can see it says this woman, Emma Chandra of Bloomberg News,
Starting point is 00:10:51 and then underneath retail traders lose interest in GameStop. That is 100 percent fake news. The number one post right now on I believe the number one post on Wall Street Bets. Why you definitely should not under any circumstances fall for the silver scams. You are being played by the most powerful elite on the planet. Think about what they say in that New York Post article. Reddit's epic silver squeeze is only helping Wall Street. There is no epic silver squeeze. It doesn't exist. If silver is going up, and it did earlier today, it's because the media is pumping it. Now, this is where things like the I'm sorry, man, the veil has been shattered. We're seeing two things right now.
Starting point is 00:11:34 Two things. The first, they don't like that GameStop has actually the GameStop retail investors are actually hurting the hedge funds. Melvin Capital down 53%. They don't like it. So what we're seeing now is I believe this is more likely to be some kind of standalone complex where all these people in media have connections. They get fake stories seeded and then dumb journalists with malicious journalists who are trying to make a pretty penny pump out this story
Starting point is 00:11:59 to divert everyone's attention away from GameStop. A lot of the people who are investing are probably just someone who saw the news. There's now 8 million users on r slash WallStreetBets, 8 million. A good portion of them probably just tuned in as a get-rich-quick scheme. Not all of them, not most, but just a lot, right? I think what we're seeing is that these special interests, these elites, are trying to convince people, go buy Dogecoin, go buy silver. But we're seeing something else more nefarious than ever. We are seeing exactly why Wall Street Bets is doing what they're doing. We are seeing the crony machine in play. They are lying to you to get you to buy silver so they can
Starting point is 00:12:38 pump the price of silver up. Then all of their friends will sell out when silver peaks leave you holding an empty bag. They do it all the time, and they're doing it in our face right now. Now, it's not just a New York post there. It's also CNBC that has this headline, Silver Jumps 8% Touches 8-Year High As Reddit Traders Try Their Squeeze Play With The Metal. And when you look at the media coverage, it definitely kind of changed. It was always sinister. It was always extremely negative towards Redditors, towards
Starting point is 00:13:09 the plebes or peasants who are actually gaining some financial wisdom and outsmarting the Wall Street guys. It was always negative towards them because they're not part of the in-club, they're not part of the establishment. But we have to understand, it's always coming from the same kind of point of view. It's always coming from the same kind of perspective. Washington Post wrote an opinion piece about the hedge funds being the good guys. We have MSNBC literally had an anchor on there talking about how the Reddit traders are going to be self-harming themselves like Instagram women who are depressed that they're going to start cutting themselves because they're wasting their time. I'm not kidding you.
Starting point is 00:13:48 It's absolutely bonkers and absolutely just insane, the coverage we're seeing by MSNBC. And then, of course, we also had Jimmy Kimmel on television to the national public talking about these amateur investors who are maybe influenced by Russia. Literally. Russian bots. Yes. Russian developers. russian developers it was exactly what he said but but look at the obfuscation look at the manipulation look at the disinformation propaganda campaign used against individuals the plebs who are finally playing in the stock market by the rules of the hedge funds and the hedge funds and establishment are saying wait wait wait we can only win this game not you when they're playing by the rules of the hedge funds, and the hedge funds and establishment are saying, wait, wait, wait, wait, we can only win this game, not you, when they're playing by the rules fairly. It's absolutely insane. It's borderline criminal.
Starting point is 00:14:31 If we lived in a fair system and there was justice in this world, there would be some serious criminal charges, but there's not. Janet Yellen, I mean, she's on the take here, obviously getting paid, in my opinion. In my opinion, she's on the take, but she's getting paid hundreds of thousands of dollars from these companies these companies have a revolving door within the u.s federal reserve ben bernacki is also involved in citadel i mean you could name the list of government officials that just go from one day public representatives of you to selling you out the next day and it's absolutely sickening what's going on here and guess what it's only going to get a lot worse this is i i was left dumbfounded this morning but this is a good sign
Starting point is 00:15:09 though but this is this is how they're panicking the veil was shattered exactly this is a great sign because look how desperate they're becoming that they're literally you know going at the straws you're being like silver silver now i personally like silver i i even made a video two weeks ago saying hey i even interviewed someone in the silver business. And I was like, I personally like silver as an alternative to the dollar, not financial advice, just my own personal opinion. But even now, when you look at the top Reddit post, and you look at what people are saying, they're saying, wait, wait, wait, there is no short on silver. A lot of hedge funds do own silver as well. and they make good points there that really are worth considering. Well, here's the interesting thing. Well, actually, before I get into it, let me say this. Silver is fantastic. I love silver.
Starting point is 00:15:52 Just not when it's being pumped and dumped. When all the media is claiming something fake is happening, like all these Redditors are telling you to buy silver. They're not. The price of silver skyrockets. You buy in when silver is at $30, and then you're all excited. And then the hedge funds who are seeking to offset their losses sell out huge portions of silver at a premium from your money. Then when silver tanks, the regular people panic, not understanding the market, losing all of that money.
Starting point is 00:16:23 And then Wall Street absorbs it all, buys back the silver they gave out in the first place and makes that money. They make money on top and they get the silver back at the same time. That's the game. That's the manipulation. So how do you think they'll pump it? I don't know. Some people are posting like it's going to hit 500. Oh, maybe I've seen some interesting posts where they say, dude, in reality, silver should be way higher. Yeah, you were saying they artificially keep the price low so that we don't panic on it. That's what they're saying online.
Starting point is 00:16:50 They're saying that these companies, you know, like if people, if silver tracked with inflation, it's way higher. Yeah. It's been like 16 bucks for a decade or for decades. Here's the really interesting and important thing about what's going on is that they're not telling people to buy physical silver. They're telling them to buy SLV. That's where it's at. Which is – I think that's silver futures. I'm not entirely sure. Jeez.
Starting point is 00:17:12 No. Buy actual silver. I'm not an investment strategist, but buying stock in something is very – Ian is a crazy hippie guy. Get the metal. Don't listen to him for financial advice. You can rub it on your neck. You can stick it on your third eye.
Starting point is 00:17:23 That's what I do with my gold. Don't you drink it like you put it in your drinks? Colloidal, yeah. It's antimicrobial, antibacterial. They put it in their clothes. You ever see the silver clothing? No, but I hear it's great for you. That's why there was always the term, born with a silver spoon in his mouth.
Starting point is 00:17:36 You can brush your teeth with it. A lot of people believe that silver has antibacterial, antiviral properties. You can rub it in wounds. And it kills werewolves. Yeah, they use it as a treatment. And it kills werewolves. That's the most important part. So here's the thing.
Starting point is 00:17:46 Rabbit dogs. I heard a lot of people saying they're trying to get people to buy SLV and not physical silver. But if everyone tried buying physical silver, it would seriously squeeze out all of the actual physical bullion stores and everything,
Starting point is 00:18:02 which could actually have a serious impact because apparently the banks wouldn't be able to cover if people actually wanted. So I don't look, I'm not going to pretend to be a stock guy. I'm going to tell you this. I'm a media guy. I know the media lies. I know the games they play. So don't get advice from me on what you do with stock.
Starting point is 00:18:16 For me, this is about the overlap between the Wall Street bets, Redditors, and what they're actually saying. And me being a critic of the media and trying to expose them and their manipulation, and now seeing how you got a bunch of the little, it's the little guy. This dude, deep effing value, who's now become a multi-millionaire off of his bets, he's just some dad in the Massachusetts area. He is not the machine, but now he's in the top, what is he, 0.1% now? Net worth is like 3030-something million.
Starting point is 00:18:46 Dude, there are CEOs who don't make that much money in a year. And he's made it in six months. Doing what? How did he make it? Investing in GameStop. Wow. That's right. Because it was at like $5 and now it's at $300.
Starting point is 00:18:58 Wow. So a very serious increase in all of your money. And he's posting his YOLO updates. And it's like $ YOLO updates. And it's like $20 million up. Thousands of percent. They don't like that. You're not allowed to be in the club.
Starting point is 00:19:15 We talked about this with Bernie Sanders a while back. How Bernie Sanders used to say, the millionaires and the billionaires in this country. And then one day he stopped saying the millionaires. One day he became a millionaire. Exactly. And sold a book. Yep. Sold a book. Became a millionaire, and now he doesn't say it anymore. And that's insane because you still can.
Starting point is 00:19:30 But also, we've talked about this before. I think the millionaires really aren't the problem. Maybe if you're like $998 million. Dude, even someone who has $200 million. $200 million is a lot. But someone that's worth $2.3 million isn't. Right. So why Bernie Sanders dropped that is beyond me.
Starting point is 00:19:46 But I don't want to get off on a tangent on Bernie just yet. We have some stuff on Bernie for later. The media is smearing him. What I'm saying is Bernie was standing outside that mansion, the clubhouse, with all the elites and all the wealthy people. And he was outside. And he was like, oh, I want to be inside there with the millionaires and the billionaires. Oh, the millionaires and the billionaires are awful screw them it was sour grapes you can't beat them join them but then one day they open the door and they say bernie come on in you can be one of us
Starting point is 00:20:12 and now he stopped saying the millionaires because they let him in the club this dude deep deep effing value on wall street bets is not part of the club and so now he somehow found his way inside this building and they're pissed off they They're looking over. They're all wearing their fancy suits, pinkies out with their and their monocles. And they see this dude with a red bandana on who bought a bunch of GameStop stock. And it reminds me of like I played a poker game once and I literally had no idea what I was doing because this was when I was like 18. And I kept betting more and I was holding 2-7 offsuit. And I ended up winning because the last dude folded.
Starting point is 00:20:49 And he was really angry. And then I showed what I had. And he started screaming and yelling, well, you shouldn't have folded. You should have folded. I should have won. And I was like, I played better, I guess. No, it was just dumb luck.
Starting point is 00:20:58 I had no idea. I had the worst possible hand. And so now you have these people who are in the club, who have sold their souls, who have dropped to their knees and given everything to be in that club. And this dude walks in with this bandana on and he's like, I don't know. I just bought a stock that was probably not supposed to go up and I screwed the hedge funds over. That's like that Eddie Murphy movie from the 80s. What was it called?
Starting point is 00:21:17 Trading Places. Was that what it was? Yeah, Trading Places, I think, where he became the rich guy. Yeah, I like it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So they give the bunk information to these big investors and then screw them over he and dan akroyd is it that they switch yeah eddie murphy and dan akroyd great dan akroyd is this like a rich wall street trader and he's like snooty and eddie murphy's a homeless guy and they make a bet and they switch them to see if they can like make it work or whatever it's a great movie by the way time to watch that movie i definitely
Starting point is 00:21:41 want to watch it but that's that's a really fun movie people are posting that like as a like yeah i saw that yeah yeah that's why it was on my mind i guess yeah uh didn't max kaiser just a few years ago call for buying silver to squeeze out jp morgan he's he's he's saying he's saying i think max is tweeting now to do it yeah i'm looking at what max is doing now i'm gonna look at his twitter account just to see because he he's also a big silver guy he's a big alternatives guy to the u.s dollar so it Twitter account just to see because he's also a big silver guy. He's a big alternatives guy to the US dollar. So it'd be interesting to see what he says. I remember seeing a lot of silver news with him just a few years ago about this specific topic.
Starting point is 00:22:13 Well, listen, listen. I like Max. He's a very smart guy. But he's also, he's a crypto guy. He's a Bitcoin guy. And I wonder if his perspective on it is what they're doing with the hedge funds won't break the system. It'll break the hedge funds, and crypto will break the system. So that's why he's, you know, telling everybody, you got to go after crypto short, the whole, you know, short squeeze
Starting point is 00:22:33 the whole system. But I will say, you know, maybe Max is right. Far be it for me to criticize that guy that, you know, for those unfamiliar, Max Keiser is he's been in the game for longer than I've been alive. And there was a funny video he posted from like 1987 of him ragging on yuppies. And I'm like, dude, I was like one. So respect, respect to Max. What I can say is the Redditors are saying, here's our mission. And so what we're seeing now with all of this, it's, this is very similar what happens with any semi-decentralized mass movement.
Starting point is 00:23:03 We saw with Occupy Wall Street, the first one. A lot of people were like, yo, we're mad at the banks. And then all of a sudden, a bunch of people came up and started screaming about unrelated issues. I remember I was not at Occupy Wall Street, and they were having a meeting over what their main demand should be. Well, everybody was there because the big bank bailouts and the gambling they did that destroyed the market, destroyed everyone's livelihood.
Starting point is 00:23:24 And I remember one day while they're having this meeting with like a ton of people, some guy just like old white dude randomly stood up and screamed, what is wrong with you people? Fracking is the problem. It's the center of everything. And I'm like, what does fracking have to do with the banks? But in his mind, everything, because he couldn't see past his own desire and demands. So now you're seeing a lot of people posting. Now's our chance, everybody. Buy Dogecoin. Why?
Starting point is 00:23:51 So they can get rich off Dogecoin. Buying Dogecoin doesn't hurt anybody. And what happens is when the price of Dogecoin collapses because there's no demand or interest, then people get left holding an empty bag. But what they're doing with GameStop and AMC and Bed Bath & Beyond and American Airlines, these were the short targets. So now these hedge funds are going to lose money. What they're doing has an impact. But a bunch of people saw that power. They saw all of these people shining their lights in a single direction, creating a massive
Starting point is 00:24:18 effect. And they said, if only I could point that in the direction I want, I could have more power. So everyone's trying to now wield the power of wall street bets for themselves we're seeing twitter accounts pop up with the image claiming like they're part of the movement or speak you know in some way for it we're seeing different reddits pop up saying very similar things but there is an overall unity for the most part like there's a majority or a majority of people saying GameStop, AMC.
Starting point is 00:24:45 Those are the targets. Well, the movement's biggest strength is also its biggest weakness because it is decentralized. You don't really see a big rallying call. You do see a lot of censorship. You do see a lot of obfuscation by the mainstream media. But it's also a bunch of people being like, hey, and a bunch of noise. So it's very hard to kind of organize that into one big vocal uh kind of representation here so it could be just disorganized chaos that happened organically or it could be pushed on
Starting point is 00:25:11 and spurred on by some other elites who of course are benefiting off of people being fractured and divided and conquered both are possible here but to me the clear winner today is definitely popeyes yes my chicken popeyes with their Tendies for All campaign with literally providing promo codes for everyone based off the stocks of the Redditors. Obviously, going into
Starting point is 00:25:37 the popular will, obviously tuning into this kind of new movement and trying to, of course, profit off of it by selling probably most likely GMO chicken. I'm down. Tell me about this. So Popeyes put up a commercial that said tendies aren't just for the Wall Street elites.
Starting point is 00:25:55 Tendies are for everyone because the meme is that when you do really, really well and like on your stock and you get a profit, you're getting your tendies or whatever. So they were like tendies for everybody so if you tend to so now there's a promo code where if you spend i guess i guess here we are promoting popeyes form all right you see the game you see how it works they did it it worked it's something like if you spend five bucks you get free free chicken tenders oh i i wait if you spend five bucks on stocks? If you order online, you use the promo code of the GME stocks, and you get a special discount or something. Yeah. Oh, okay. So if you do like dollar sign GME, dollar sign AMC.
Starting point is 00:26:30 Oh, wow. They've bought it. So they're using the movement as well. Wow. Good, good, good. I love this. You know why? Because regular people will see this and not know what it is.
Starting point is 00:26:38 Right. If we get more corporate marketing to embrace the idea that there's money to be made from people who are excited and happy about this, then they're going to get more people rallying and coming in and investing those stocks. So like if people signed up on TimCast.com with the special promo code, there aren't promo codes. We give no tendies.
Starting point is 00:26:58 That'd be a fun game. Tendies for all promo code. I mean, that's a good idea. Dude, if corporate marketing gets behind this, then you see real influential power being like we're hip and with it yes but hey sure fellow kids yeah i'm waiting on amazon to go full awakened no look highly doubt that start accepting cryptocurrency are you kidding me like yeah yeah that's like a very naive amazon owns twitch right and that's like uh the the streamer destiny who's leftist, got stripped from the partner program
Starting point is 00:27:27 because he defended Kyle Rittenhouse. That's so crazy. That's Amazon. They own the Washington Post. Who said the hedge funds are the good guys. They also said guns are white supremacy and that maybe you shouldn't need $2,000. That's the arguments that they're making right now. Right now, it's simple.
Starting point is 00:27:44 It's never been more clear. If you're trying to figure out what's really going on and what you should support if the media is saying it assume the opposite you guys ever see the episode of seinfeld where george decides to he's such a failure just one day decides i'll do literally the opposite of whatever i do and then everything works out for him that's a great episode by the way that's how i feel with the media if the mainstream media is coming out and saying one thing assume it's just the opposite. It's sunny today. It must be raining.
Starting point is 00:28:07 Well, that can get confusing because you are the – this is media as well. So some – and this is corporate media. Tim Kess is a corporation. Oh, come on. It is technically corporate media. Sure, sure. It's just good corporate media. We barely qualify as a small business.
Starting point is 00:28:20 But it's corporate media, oddly enough. So what – is it that it's like? There's the billionaire class and then there's private enterprise. This is a private enterprise. Amazon is the billionaire class that exploited and used and manipulated government for their own personal benefit. That's a whole different category. But Tesla is the billionaire class. They're getting a lot of government contracts as well.
Starting point is 00:28:41 Listen, there are still remnants of good old capitalism alive and well today in this country. That people who work hard and provide a good service will find themselves doing well and expanding their business and having a large platform. CNN are liars. They cheat. They steal. They manipulate. They're propped up by being put in hotels and airports all over the country and the world. It's not organic when they get their ratings.
Starting point is 00:29:07 Now, they're ending CNN Airport, but it's all just – it's pumped. Look at how YouTube – you want to talk about corporate media. YouTube puts CNN and CBS and NBC on the front page. So gross, dude. I have to just – We get suppressed. Black it out. So here's what I'm telling people. Right now, we have this interesting nonpartisan mass effort where everyone can see the media is lying.
Starting point is 00:29:29 But listen, capitalists, you know, like people who are not into socialism, look at what's happening with the corruption and the command economy. How these elites can control socialism for me, but not for the essentially. They say, see, that's socialism. When the powerful elites steal the resource and keep it for themselves. Socialists are saying that's capitalism. That through their monopolistic power, they collude and just stop poor people from being able to get access to any of the resources. And I'm just like, yo, that's just corruption. Capitalism is laissez-faire capitalism and capitalism can be utopian.
Starting point is 00:30:02 When we believe in this beautiful world of free trade. Socialism can be utopian. My personal opinion, a little bit of both. You need a little mixed economy here. You need some social programs, but you got to have a good regular. You got to have a good system that can weed out failing programs and improve them. And you need market competition and the ability of individuals to work and trade as they see fit.
Starting point is 00:30:20 Right now, it's the wrong conversation because we should be all in agreement. Whatever you want to call it, there's a group of extremely powerful elites who are stripping away the resources and value from working class people. You want to call that socialism? Fine. You want to call it capitalism? I don't care. Can we just arrest some people? Can we just get some rallying behind the manipulation?
Starting point is 00:30:40 Can we call out this purposefully circuitous system that makes it so hard to track when you're trying to figure out how any of this stuff works and you're like i don't know how these companies are so no one knows what the fed is no one knows how the federal reserve works sad and true man and not a lot of people know much about it and i don't even know much about it as much as i'd like to i want to have an expert on here well i think david portnall i could work on that david portnoy i think said it best jail work on that. David Portnoy, I think, said it best. Jail. Jail.
Starting point is 00:31:07 That's it. Jail. So what do we need? I agree. SEC to go after the DTCC? Again, that's very high... The former head of the SEC made comments very favorable towards the hedge fund, very against these Reddit traitors.
Starting point is 00:31:20 Elizabeth Warren defended the hedge funds. I saw that. Yeah. Who does the arrest then? Who does the investigation? The Justice Department? No, no, no, no. It's the local sheriff who will come and arrest you, Ian, for daring to speak up against the machine.
Starting point is 00:31:31 But who's going to go after the DTCC? Nobody. For extorting Robin Hood? No. No. No one's going to go after them. You're the rabble. They come for you.
Starting point is 00:31:41 I'm not the rabble, Tim. No one's going to arrest these people. People always naively think that the law applies to everyone. It doesn't. When you're super rich, you live by a whole different standard of laws and rules that don't apply to you that apply to everyone else. Is that always the case? Yes. No, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:31:57 It's not the super rich. It's the club. Because look at that lawyer. There was that FBI lawyer who fabricated evidence. The establishment elite. Are you correcting me? I agree with you. Look at Jack Ma. That's that FBI lawyer who fabricated evidence. The establishment elite. Are you correcting me? I agree with you. Look at Jack Ma.
Starting point is 00:32:07 That's another great example of the club. Someone with money. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Has he resurfaced yet? Look, they're investigating. They're investigating Elon Musk now. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:15 They're going after him. Because he allegedly didn't hire enough non-U.S. citizens. I think that's the story. That does sound familiar. Lydia, can you look that up? Yeah. citizens i think that's the story yeah let's lydia can you look that up uh elon musk investigated for hiring non-us citizens which is a little bit mind-boggling but i think in the justice department you have a mandatory thing that you need to hire non-us citizens either way the issue
Starting point is 00:32:38 is elon musk may be i think his second richest guy on the planet they will come after him that's the article i do not like you found it he's not in the club the planet. They will come after him. That's the article. They do not like him. Yeah, you found it. He's not in the club. But the reality is the club has fallen apart. And I think it says it in the second byline there. The DOJ's Immigrant and Employee Rights Section said it received a complaint of employment discrimination from a non-U.S. citizen in May and said SpaceX refused to comply with a subpoena for relevant documents related to hiring. My mind is blown.
Starting point is 00:33:02 Yeah. Well, there you go. I know that he's pretty harsh about who he hires and fires. The U.S. Department of Justice is investigating SpaceX over whether the company discriminates against non-U.S. citizens in its hiring, according to court documents filed on Thursday. That's insane. Wow.
Starting point is 00:33:16 What? That is crazy. I remember reading that a couple of days ago and reporting on it on my channel. I'm like, wait, wait, wait, wait. They're going after him for that? You can't discriminate against... Listen, we're America. They're going after him for that? You can't discriminate. Listen, we're America. We're not.
Starting point is 00:33:29 Look, look. They don't have social security numbers. No, no, no. How is that supposed to work? Isn't it painfully obvious right now what's happening? The club. Okay, so we talked about something a while ago. I think it was last week I was talking about Hillary Clinton losing.
Starting point is 00:33:47 And I was like, I always thought the game was rigged. I was just like, what's the point of voting? And then Donald Trump won. And I was like, I guess you really can get your candidate to win. That restored my faith in the system. All right. But then I wondered, how is it that he won? Like, certainly the establishment elites who manipulate media and manipulate the markets could have wrangled up enough effort to to win and i'm not talking about fraud or cheating i'm talking about you know mail-in voting systems about changing laws about you know um running stories like what they're doing right now about silver just blatantly wrong stories over manipulation and it's because they didn't on they underestimated the internet and the meme magic no joke trump was memed into the president. And they overestimated Hillary Clinton.
Starting point is 00:34:25 Definitely. Maybe a little bit, yeah. Yep. And so then I started to think maybe the establishment elites who normally have an airtight control of the media and the narrative and the system are slipping. They're losing their grip. Now you look at what's going on with GameStop, the GameStop stocks, and it's like they're losing their grip.
Starting point is 00:34:42 The hedge funds are bleeding out cash. Now you look at how the media responded with this, what looks to be a coordinated smear campaign to trick regular Americans into buying up this SLV, losing money. But we can see right through it now. It's almost like, you know, the Wizard of Oz and they pulled the curtain back and we can see the man behind the curtain and he's still going. Just close my eyes and they won't see me. Right. When I was on the show, one of the first times you were like what do we do what's the solution i'm like memes and you're like what do you mean memes what are you
Starting point is 00:35:11 talking about and i'm like dude you don't get it man there's a whole culture that even popeyes is picking up on and the memes are literally the ones that are waking people up and are more effective than a lot of the mainstream media propaganda l Lydia? The cathedral is terrified of memes. I think ever since Trump was elected, I think watching this GameStop stuff is really making it worse. Yeah, there's a lot of even documents that were uncovered, and I have to refresh myself, and I don't want to speak out of hand here, and I think they were referred to special operations
Starting point is 00:35:42 talking about meme warfare that was released by edward snowden i have to double check but there's this is something that of course government agencies see as a massive threat and i i think that i think the memes i mean they're they're viral right now i'm i'm tweeting and i'm instagramming a whole bunch of them all the time because just in that one simple image in that simple representation you're able to get across ideas so much more effectively than any video, than any photo, than any article, than any other kind of media form. And it's really its own form and the shares and the clicks and the way that this spreads is just exactly how this whole Reddit movement started and exactly how it has a momentum and has an energy. And when you look at even the Epstein situation, no one even knew about it until the memes started coming out and that hashtag started coming out. So this is key and essential.
Starting point is 00:36:33 And looking at the memes now, things are looking in favor of the Redditor. There's something really interesting. Jon Stewart, I guess, joined Twitter recently. Yeah. And he tweeted cheering on the Redditors. He joined Twitter. Did I say Reddit? He joined Twitter and started cheering. No, you Twitter recently. Yeah. And he tweeted cheering on the Redditors. He joined Twitter. Did I say Reddit? He joined Twitter and started cheering.
Starting point is 00:36:48 No, you said Twitter. Okay. And now he's cheering on the Redditors and GameStop saying, good, kick it to Wall Street, you know, take them for what they're worth. Jimmy Kimmel. So I couldn't find the tweet. I don't know if Jimmy Kimmel deleted it, but a bunch of people were sharing it. Yeah, I saw it.
Starting point is 00:36:59 Apparently he said, real Donald Trump, is this you? Or something like that. That you? Dude, he is obsessed. Well, no, no, no no someone made a really good point john stewart is an old school liberal who has been out of the game for several years he's probably been minding his own business for the most part not realizing the realignment that's occurred jimmy kimmel is realignment left so he's a mock he's mocking uh john stewart john stewart comes out and says the right thing
Starting point is 00:37:26 is a leftist and he gets he gets accused of being trump and you look at what cnn said trumpism explains what's going on with with cnn jimmy kimmel has has lost i mean this is maybe i'm just preaching to the choir this is obvious but he is completely gone well if you look at i mean he's done i was gonna say something kind of offensive you know that term off the native american but that yeah yeah the whole phrase off the reservation is a very racist phrase i've come to learn but i didn't know the origin just means something about a native american leaving and then it's like that makes them crazy or something like that i don't know well also back to jimmy kimmel here i mean when you look at him you look at his eyes he looks beaten wow he looks defeated he looks like i you know i don't know. Well, also, back to Jimmy Kimmel here. I mean, when you look at him, you look at his eyes, he looks beaten.
Starting point is 00:38:05 He looks defeated. He looks like, you know, I don't want to kind of expound on here, but he looks like he's not there. He looks like he's just absolutely miserable doing his job. Yes. Look, look, when I see a lot of these people in media, Colbert and Kimmel and these like late night hosts, there's no passion. They don't care. It's like, dude, give me the script and I'll read it. Okay.
Starting point is 00:38:30 So Russian bots are buying stock. And what's that line? Redditor. What is that? I don't know what that is. Oh, they're bad guys. And I would advise everyone to go watch this Kimmel talk. It's 30 seconds long.
Starting point is 00:38:43 And he mentions that the Redditors might be Russian assets. Russian bots. Did he write that? Or did his writers write that and hand it to him and he just went with it? It's the cathedral, man. It's disgusting. What does Russia have anything to do with these Russian people? With these Russian people.
Starting point is 00:38:58 It starts with an R. There's alliteration involved. Well, Bloomberg even went on to describe people a part of this larger movement as insurrectionist. So did the former SEC chairman. So we have to understand that this is aggressive language that we're seeing towards poor people playing the market and outsmarting the people who used to play the market, the hedge funds. This reminds me of Occupy Wall Street, because at Occupy occupy wall street the banks began to rupture you could see their terror um the whole industry was like you know what the jig is up it's we're we're done for let's save as many of our necks as we can because it's over just really quick i want to make a point here what made occupy wall street prominent
Starting point is 00:39:38 because it was ignored for a very long time was a disproportionate response by the state they were extremely aggressive and they hit back very hard. And there was one pepper spray incident that really went viral that started everything. Tony Bologna. Tony Bologna, exactly. And it was literally overreaction by the state. We're seeing another overreaction by the authorities, by the establishment right now, as we're speaking with this absurdity that some people are calling news.
Starting point is 00:40:03 Let me tell you, Luke. Democracy dies in darkness. Did you know this? I heard that one. Where's that phrase from? The Washington Post, which is the Bezos Times, in their op-ed about the hedge funds being the good guys. Let me read a passage for you. They said,
Starting point is 00:40:17 This time is different. The GameStop speculators are not merely in a frenzy about one stock. Their goal is to destroy the traders who link stock prices to fair value. To suggest a political analogy, they are not just blindly devoted to their candidate. They deny the legitimacy of the opposition party. They are not just acting within the system. They want to overthrow the system. It's as though, just imagine, a rabble gripped by conspiracy theories were to attack the rules of democracy itself the name gamestop is apt do you know what that passage
Starting point is 00:40:52 is saying they're saying the redditors are the same thing as trump supporters and the action they're taking is the same as the insurrection is is the they're calling it you know essentially the insurrection attacking democracy itself storming in the camp who wrote that by the way uh he oh you're gonna like this luke this is sebastian malaby he is the paul a volker senior fellow for international economics the council on foreign relations oh okay makes perfect sense there yes i know this you know we have barely they kicked me out of there permanently and banned me you're walking around with volker yes i had a very interesting conversation mr paul Paul Volker. You could look it up on We Are Change. He was actually very nice,
Starting point is 00:41:27 but he was lost. So I was literally telling him where to go into the secret VIP room that he accidentally took me into. Oh, whoopsie. Because security was like, oh, he's clearly with him. And then that's when he brought me
Starting point is 00:41:37 to Ben Bernanke, another individual who, by the way, is also a senior advisor at Citadel, which people should know and is also the former chairman of the U.S. Federal Reserve. And Citadel owns stock, the silver stock? You said that's like 50% of their...
Starting point is 00:41:50 They own... I guess they own SLV. Look, I'm just basically going off of what Wall Street Bets has been saying about what's going on. So you went to the CFR. I kind of want to touch on this. Oh, yeah. A number of times where they had press events, and it was actually...
Starting point is 00:42:03 This is a wild story, too. It was Eric Schmidt's girlfriend who kicked me out of the CFR permanently because I was always coming in there, and then they kicked me out, and they denied me press credentials. So I had an alias that I went under. I got in there again. Then they kicked me out. Then I had a third alias. Can I say your alias?
Starting point is 00:42:22 I don't want to say. I can't say. Well, one of them. I'll release one of them. One of them is public and his name was Bill and last name DeBerg. So when you read that together,
Starting point is 00:42:32 it makes a statement about another secret. They didn't notice. They didn't notice. They're like, oh, you've got Mr. Bill here. Let him in. Because I did the accreditation.
Starting point is 00:42:40 I had credentials. They let me into the Council on Foreign Relations and they had press conferences and I stood up, asked my question like everyone else. But the difference was I wasn't kissing butt. I wasn't throwing softballs.
Starting point is 00:42:49 I went right for the gullet verbally with hardcore, legitimate, reasonable questions that should have been asked about corruption and all these horrible things that these people do in secret that was finally exposed with this questioning. They hated it, kicked me out three times. And the fourth time, Eric Schmidt's girlfriend, because I looked who this was, gave me a call personally. She's like, Luke, we know who you are. Just stop it. You're banned. You're not coming in. We're doing this because
Starting point is 00:43:16 you're going to be arrested if you step foot into the CFR. I don't care how many aliases. I don't care how many disguises you have. You're not coming in. And I'm like, fine. Ladies and gentlemen. I waited outside, by the way. Who's Eric Schmidt again? Eric Schmidt is the former chairman of Alphabet, the former head of Google, who also is working with the government, especially the Pentagon, on their technological advancements of the military. Now that you've mentioned Eric Schmidt is formerly the head of Google, if you were wondering why he might get banned in the future, it's because this guy's
Starting point is 00:43:45 got us sitting right here. Well, my channel was kicked out of the partner program, I think very unfairly. I mean, if, I mean... Did you ever find out why? No. Oh, come on.
Starting point is 00:43:54 No. He, he, he, he, you ambushed Eric Schmidt. I didn't ambush. I asked him a question. No, no, no, hold on. Ambush journalism is just a reference to you
Starting point is 00:44:01 seeing him walking and going up and asking him questions. Yeah, I was like... I'm not saying it derogatory. I politely asked him about financing and fundraising a lot of the think tanks that were. Think tanks? Sorry. Good enough.
Starting point is 00:44:12 You know what I'm saying here. Think tanks. Think tanks that were organizing the term fake news. Because the term fake news kind of came out of nowhere and it was galvanized as a way pushed by Hillary Clinton to go against Donald Trump, to go against independent media. And it all started, according to a lot of investigative journalism from a lot of the groups that were financed directly by him and Google. So I went up to him and I was like, hey, Eric Schmidt, let's talk about you working with Hillary Clinton on her campaign. Let's talk about you donating to her and you helping her create some
Starting point is 00:44:43 of the biggest buzzwords that the media is using right now and weaponizing right now to destroy free speech. And then he looked you in the eyes and said, listen, you're a little pissant. I'm going to strip your YouTube channel from the partner program. I'm going to make a dime against you. He was like, this is effing absurd. You're effing crazy. I'm like, sir, please stop cursing. You're going to get my YouTube video demonetized.
Starting point is 00:45:04 And obviously on you. But that's not the first time we got him. We also got him at another Bilderberg in Switzerland. This is all, of course, as he's going to the Bilderberg group meeting, which the mainstream media, by and large, chooses not to report on, even though it's 150 of the most influential people come together in secret. We got to hit that point because we're going to stay here. How do these all factor in?
Starting point is 00:45:24 There's Bilderberg, Davos, and the Council on Foreign Relations. There's also the Trilateral Commission, and there's groups within groups within groups and affiliations within all these different groups. And I could talk about this for hours. But one last thing before we segue, I kind of really wanted to bring up some of the amazing positive stories. We should focus on some of those here. And those are of individuals who enriched themselves through this whole GameStop saga, and they're doing incredible things. The New York Post has an article right now that is titled, College Student Donates GameStop Gains to Buy Video Games for Sick Kids. And
Starting point is 00:45:55 there's a large number of these individuals actually going out of their way, taking profit, and doing really amazing things that are helping people. You look at the hedge funds. That money. That's hedge fund money. Yeah, exactly. What do hedge funds do? The CEO of Malvin Capital is still moving forward with literally destroying and bulldozing a house next to his
Starting point is 00:46:18 so he could build a tennis court. That's what Malvin Capital is. This kid, he's making sure sick kids get video games. He's making sure people get helped in their communities. And you see tons of these stories. There was another post on Reddit that said, this is for my father. That was absolutely a tearjerker that talked about a lot of the bigger things, a lot of the bigger reasons, a lot of the motive behind this, which is absolutely important to know. The story was that his dad's construction company, I believe,
Starting point is 00:46:48 construction, was destroyed by the housing market crisis caused by these big banks, and that since then, he's become basically a destitute alcoholic who's lost the will to live. And so he's like, this is for you, Dad. This is, you know, the son has come back for vengeance against those. But this is important. A lot of these Reddit kids saw their families devastated, especially in 2008. They were kicked out of their homes in the housing market crisis.
Starting point is 00:47:14 Last year, they had their private businesses, enterprises shut down by the lockdowns. And here they are saying, we're going to come together and we're going to play by the rules and we're going to work the market towards the benefit of everyone. We're going to literally be Robin Hood in the modern day and age. And what happens? The system conspires, colludes against them, calls them insurrectionists, calls them losers, says they're connected to Russia, says that they're going to be cutting themselves and harming themselves. Are you kidding me? Because they made a little bit of money that they're actually spreading around to the economy? That is sick and disgusting bastardization of news
Starting point is 00:47:50 and people's responsibility. If you're a journalist right now and you're not reporting on this fairly and honestly, you are not a journalist. You're a propaganda mouthpiece for the establishment elite and you have no soul within yourself. And I am sick of these people. They know it and they don't care.
Starting point is 00:48:04 Like when I saw that Bloomberg, that clip from Wall Street about the Bloomberg saying Redditors lose interest. I'm like, what are you talking about? It's the number one post right now on Reddit telling people to buy more stock. One dude just announced he's putting a million dollars into GameStop. A million bucks right now. Interest is not going down. They are lying. These are not journalists. They know they're propagandists for the state, and they know what they're doing. For the longest time, I've given many of them the benefit of the doubt. But each and every one of these who is writing an article saying, buy silver. Redditors want you to buy silver.
Starting point is 00:48:34 They know they are lying, or they're just useful idiots who are too stupid to do their job. One thing's for sure. They're not journalists. But listen, listen, this is a good segue because my friends. Why is it that Washington, D.C. is putting up these permanent barricades now in the green zone? You hear about this, right? You know the barricades all around D.C.?
Starting point is 00:48:56 Yeah, yeah. It's permanent. Okay. When did they decide to make this permanent? Okay. And they're going to leave 5,000 National Guardsmen there. I've heard of this. You know why?
Starting point is 00:49:05 There is a real threat. There is. They keep saying there's like a threat of white supremacy in the far right. It's not really that. I mean, they'll say that, but there is a threat. The real threat is the rabble who can see the shat—they can see now through the shattered veil. It's almost like the Matrix. And then one day all these robots are tending to the human crop, and then a bunch of humans wake up.
Starting point is 00:49:24 And they can see what's going on around them. And if the machine doesn't get a hold of things, those people are going to get real angry, and they're going to rise up. So we see this massive security effort in D.C. Now we see the next and most interesting iteration in the desperation of the state because they're really scared about what happens when people realize not only is the game rigged, but we are stealing everything from you and your family. And we're laughing the whole way down. A new gun bill would require public registry of all weapons. This is H.R. 127. This is one of the most insane things I've ever read to the point where I really don't think it will pass.
Starting point is 00:50:01 But this is a new gun control measure. It's been proposed by Jackson Lee Sheila, a Democrat from Texas. And it requires a lot of things. I don't know if you have a lot of the points on the gun control bill. I do. That you want to bring up specifically. I want to bring up more about that security theater you were bringing up. Because there's a CNN legal analyst named Elliot Williams who tweeted, quote,
Starting point is 00:50:22 Seems like a good day for a reminder that in any other year, hundreds of giddy children from across Washington, D.C. would be sledding at the Capitol building all day long. They can't because the grounds are closed to the public following a domestic terrorist attack. And then, I mean, just the hyperbolic, just the fear mongering, just the nonsense there. And I think Michael Tracy had a response that is worth noting here and commenting on. And he said, or alternatively, the children can't sled on the hill because a security theater panic has been ginned up and virtually no one in a position of influence has bothered even questioning it. I think he's wrong. Why?
Starting point is 00:50:59 It's not security theater. It could be. No, no, no, no, no. I'll tell you. It's that the media right now their lies are so obvious luke you were telling me about the killdozer yes i watched a documentary about the killdozer and my goodness gracious uh that is the gist of the killdozer story it was an individual who felt wronged by city council and and he decided to take out his feelings of being mistreated by the government by literally building huge slabs of steel surrounding a giant bulldozer, which he put in a 50 caliber firearm that was shooting out of and other rifles out of through little ports and went on a rampage in a small
Starting point is 00:51:46 town, literally going after anyone who thought he was wrong by him. They couldn't stop him. It's called the Killdozer. And he only got stopped because his Killdozer fell into a basement when he was just he like destroyed a city councilman's house or whatever. Well, he's going after one of the businesses that was owned by one of the people that okay okay it was wrong it's not security theater now the media is lying about in my opinion i think the media is lying about the threat the far right no i think the real threat
Starting point is 00:52:13 is that the veil has been shattered they know it they know we can now see them all working the machines behind the scenes going oh what do we do now if you have one person who feels wronged by the government in that way and this one person goes nuts and builds a killdozer i mean this is freaky stuff we don't want this stuff we don't want this this this no no we need to do everything in our power to prevent violence but you prevent as much as we can by having justice but these these these crony machine the crony machine doesn't want that instead they're now putting up massive barricades around the Capitol so they're like, we know what's coming. We know the rage is there, and they don't care if it's – look, the media will tell you one thing, but that's the point I bring up. That's why I bring up this new firearms restriction, like the restrictions, HR 127.
Starting point is 00:53:01 They want you to have a license and insurance and a whole bunch of crazy things. Listen listen the crazy thing about it is that there are a lot of people right now who have a bunch of guns they would want you to pay pay fees get liability insurance they would want you to register each and every weapon mandatory psych evaluations a national gun owner license gun insurance for everything as well as a publicly accessible database. And they want to ban 50 BMGs. I mean, are you kidding me? I mean, this is absolutely draconian. This is frightening. This is terrifying because, you know, there's going to be a lot of individuals who are not going to register their firearms. And this house resolution makes it so you have to or you face penalties and fines that could land you in jail for a year to 40 years look at this let me read
Starting point is 00:53:52 you from this article i have this is from the daily fly they say a pro-gun group called the citizens committee for the right to keep and bear arms called the bill insanity on steroids they say over the years we've seen some astonishingly bad legislation originate on Capitol Hill, but this one takes the term abomination to an entirely new level. One look at this bill and you wonder whether Congressman Jackson Lee ever heard of the Bill of Rights, which includes the Second Amendment. The bill would also ban all.50 caliber weapons, all.50 cals, not just BMG, all.50 cal. Now, my friends, a couple of years ago, I talked about, I was like, oh, maybe you have liability insurance or, you know, a license. And someone responded to me. That's great. It's a really good idea, Tim. I'm totally in favor of getting you insurance,
Starting point is 00:54:33 liability insurance for your speech. And you have to get a license to be able to speak publicly. And then I was like, wait, wait, no, no, I don't want that. Like, oh, I see your point. The Bill of Rights says these things are in, you know, inalienable rights. We have the right to keep and bear arms. We have the right to speech. And I said, OK, that's right. You're right. I don't want any restrictions on my speech for the, you know, for the most part, except
Starting point is 00:54:56 for like committing a crime. And it's already illegal to commit a crime with a weapon. Therefore, all right, you should keep out the key. You should be able to have a weapon. Now they're doing everything in their power to, you know these moves we knew it was coming under joe biden but this when i read this like it's a whole insanity on steroids is an understatement yeah more importantly i don't think it will pass because you're going to have some you know more moderate democrats especially like i can't see bernie sanders agreeing with this well there are so some pro gun democrats out there but we also have to remember there has been a huge surge of new gun
Starting point is 00:55:30 owners a lot of them from cities a lot of them from democratic areas that are understanding that hey you know maybe i shouldn't wait 15 20 30 minutes for a police to respond maybe it'll be better if i have something that i could defend myself with, just like all the celebrities and politicians have. You know, they have all these security guards. They have all these people always protecting them
Starting point is 00:55:51 with firearms. And with this, you know, law, with this resolution that they're trying to get passed, H.R. 127, this is going to lead to massive amount of harm. This is going to lead
Starting point is 00:56:02 to a massive amount of problems that's only going to make the situation that much worse. It would ban gun ownership for people under 21. What? It's not going to happen. That's, that is like, you're an, you're a legal adult at 18. You have constitutional rights. You can fight in the military at 18. Yeah. I mean, we've all, we've already seen just how bad the laws are. And you know what, you know, I was really, I've been thinking a lot more about this as I now own a decent quantity of firearms myself. My opinion on 2A has gone super far into pro 2A, whatever you want to call it.
Starting point is 00:56:34 The Second Amendment says the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. The right to bear arms shall not be infringed, right? Yeah. So should I be able to walk around bearing arms? Well, it depends on where you're walking around, but for the most part. Where? What does that mean? If you're walking around my living room, I might have a say in it.
Starting point is 00:56:52 Well, that's private property. Yeah. It has nothing to do with the gun. Look, if someone breaks in and out with a gun, it's a crime. Even if I invite you over and you just pulled out a gun and I didn't know you had one? You're probably going to leave. I'd probably freak out. Yeah, but it's not a crime if you invite someone to your house that the issue is in many places in like the vast majority of
Starting point is 00:57:08 places the government tells you you can't bear arms no lie like legitimately i was at the post office the other day and there was a sign on the door saying it is a violation of federal law to have a firearm inside you know post office or whatever and i was like how do they do that does the constitution not exist? I'm sorry. I'm not saying it's a good thing to walk around with a gun literally everywhere. Like, I'm not saying that someone should open carry walking into a post office. I'm saying, isn't it weird?
Starting point is 00:57:35 The Constitution says you can't do it. And they literally did. And that's it. The Constitution is beyond Swiss cheese. It is tattered rags. So while I look at this and I'm thinking it won't pass, when you look at what Luke and other people are calling security theater, you look at the rage people have and the manipulation tactics are starting to fail. They are getting scared to the point where I think they'll try and ram this through. Maybe, but it's junk.
Starting point is 00:58:03 I mean you can't – there's so many ghost guns now that have been 3D printed and unregistered. No one's going to – those people, reality reality check are not going to register their weapons and if you try and pass a stupid bill like that you're going to make a large segment of the american people criminals and then that will lead to civil unrest at a level we haven't seen yet so don't do it well normally i'd say i wouldn't necessarily agree because i think the american people typically comply but i read a story about red flag laws there was this old guy and it was apparently like, I don't know, some like ex-girlfriend or ex-wife called the police saying he was unwell and he was armed. So the police came to serve a red flag warrant or whatever they call it. That's where they take your guns away. They show up at your house. You've committed no crime.
Starting point is 00:58:37 And they say, someone thinks you're unwell. You have to give us your guns and then wait a period until we undergo an evaluation and then you'll get your guns back. And if you fail, then you don't get your guns back. So this guy, he's an older guy. He's in his 60s, I guess. Here's a knock at the door. And he grabs his gun and he answers the door with the gun. And the cops tell him, we're here to take your guns. And he says, like, how you are.
Starting point is 00:58:57 And so they fight over his gun. And then they shot and killed the guy. When people say my cold, dead hands, they mean it. Right. And God forbid a situation where the cops go to serve something like that and the cops get killed. And then the cops are like, I'm not serving those stupid red flag things anymore. I'm not putting myself there. I'm not going into someone's house when they're armed and crazy to take their weapon.
Starting point is 00:59:16 It's not my job. Let me ask you, Luke. Are you familiar with the phrase, when the people fear their government, there is tyranny. But when the government fears their people, there is liberty? I think I heard about that one. Who said that? Thomas Jefferson? Was it?
Starting point is 00:59:30 I believe so. I don't know. You know, I believe that was it. These barricades that are being put up around D.C., are they for a foreign threat? Definitely not. The government seems to fear its people right now, but I'm not seeing a whole lot of liberty. Yeah. And also, a lot of the things that are called upon with this House resolution are absolutely nonsensical. They don't make any sense. If you want to stop gun violence, you would deal with inner cities where guns are banned.
Starting point is 00:59:57 That's where most of the gun homicides are at. Same with suicide. Same with police officer shootings. When you look at the statistics, people having the ability to defend themselves is not a bad thing overall especially in the kind of grander experiment in the united states if you look at places that are more gun friendly where you have more freedoms to bear arms you have a lot less crime you have a lot less murders you have a lot less homicides and i think that's because people are are are equalized by knowing that they could defend themselves. Are you allowed to open carry in Austin, Texas?
Starting point is 01:00:29 I don't know about Austin, Texas specifically. They do have a very left-leaning mayor, and a lot of transplants from California do move there. Gun laws are extremely spotty all over the United States. There's no universal law. Places in New Hampshire, you could literally open carry anywhere and everywhere you go except for federal buildings. But other places like New York City, they make you jump through impossible hoops just to get a firearm for personal home defense. So again, they vary. It all depends on the state. And there's so many different laws that ban one
Starting point is 01:01:00 thing in one state, but it's totally legal in another state. Well, I looked up AustinTexas.gov, and it says that you can open carry in the state of Texas. Is there widespread death, mayhem, and murder from people who are legally owning guns in the city? In Texas? Not that we've seen. So I was looking at some rural areas and driving around places in West Virginia and wondering – I was thinking to myself, it's really funny. There's like volunteer fire department. There's no real police department. It's like sheriffs.
Starting point is 01:01:32 So where's all the gun violence from all these gun owners? In the inner cities and deep cities. But that's not true for Austin. Like Austin has open carry. Because Texas is legit. So what's wrong with New York, California, and Chicago? They're packed in tight. Well, people don't...
Starting point is 01:01:47 No, that's not... I mean, sure. If a criminal wants a gun or a weapon or to hurt someone, they're going to find it one way or another. In Europe, they're using trucks. They're using buses. They're using knives. And there's even conversations in the United Kingdom about banning knives. And they have in some jurisdictions there.
Starting point is 01:02:03 Dude, they arrested... There was this big story a couple years ago where they arrested a construction worker for having i think a leatherman and they're like it's a knife sir and he was like but the law exempts like tools and they're like sir it's a knife and so they confiscated and gave him gave him a fine or something like that that's that's uh that's the uk dude i i've seen i've seen stories about kids in my neighborhood tying a shoelace to a padlock and then swinging it and whacking someone in the head with it. So they banned padlocks. No joke.
Starting point is 01:02:28 They were like, padlocks are banned. And I was like, why? And they were like, because someone tied it to a shoelace and whacked someone. You could fill a sock with sand and break someone's skull with it. You don't ban sand. Yeah. Well, sand wouldn't work all that well. You have to do quarters.
Starting point is 01:02:42 That's what they do. They put change. Quarters would do it. And then they put it in a sock. Forks make people fat. We should ban forks. You could stab someone with a fork. You may want to consider... I'm not even going to joke about that. It really is crazy to me that there's
Starting point is 01:02:56 serious cultural problems and guns... There's no correlation. I mean, look. People in New York have guns and people will get shot. It's getting worse and worse and worse. It's up the ridiculous amount percentage wise. Chicago, right? But why is it that in places where guns are heavily restricted, you have these problems?
Starting point is 01:03:13 And in places where guns aren't heavily restricted, you kind of don't have these problems. Pharmaceutical drugs? Okay, it's a bit of a leap. Banning these tools won't make a difference because it won't address the problems that particular cities are dealing with. Cultural problems, family problems, father problems, family problems. There's a lot of bigger issues out there that if you really want to prevent harm, you could actually do. One of my favorite things was I saw an advertisement. I actually saw this on Reddit, too, and it was eat McDonald's.
Starting point is 01:03:41 And right next to it, it was like social distance. It's for your safety. It's like you have these two larger contradictory messages out there you know and and this idea that the government cares for you that we need a bigger government to fix the the government's problems that they created themselves it's just it's it's insane and and gun control i mean it's a step towards total tyranny because once they go after that i mean anything's on the table for what they could do to you and we saw governments in canada governments in australia really push it to the limit to what they could do with their citizens right after they got rid of
Starting point is 01:04:17 their ability to have uh you know firearms and we saw huge legislation canada australia that that almost eliminated people's abilities to defend themselves. It's not even – I don't – I think – you're saying banning the tool won't change anything. And I think even out in places like West Virginia, gun laws are – it's totally cultural. Everything we're seeing, the crime, the problems, culture problems, the lack of crime in Austin has nothing to do with guns. I don't think the fact that someone can open carry deters crime. I'm thinking about how you can talk to a sheriff and he's going to be like, hey, man, you know, I'm not going to go in and mess with you and do these things. You go to New York and Tony Bologna pepper sprays for women on the street for no reason.
Starting point is 01:04:59 It's cultural problems in big cities where people are nasty. And you know what I think it is? A lot of people say like, oh, it's the blue. It's the Democrats. And I'm like, no, no, I think culture in decay in blue cities leads to corrupt politicians who use feel-good Democrat policies to gain power. And then you look at these other cities where they have open carry and things like that. It's because they're more trusting of each other. It's like, you want to open carry? Sure.
Starting point is 01:05:19 I'm not worried about you. I don't think you're going to shoot me. Right? In New York, they're like, you can't have that because I'm worried you're going to shoot me. In D.C., they put up big fences and a security primer because they're scared people are going to come after them. It's absolutely hypocritical to see individuals like Nancy Pelosi that wants machine guns at the Capitol telling you, you can't have a firearm. You can't defend yourself. You can't have a, quote, weapon of war.
Starting point is 01:05:44 And we're seeing such bastardized language. We're seeing such Orwellian tactics used here to make you paint as some kind of crazy terrorist criminal if you believe in the right to defend yourself. No, no, you're just a logical thinking human being that understands, just like as you keep saying to him, it's important to have a fire extinguisher in your house. Because again, it's not that you're going to, of course, look for fires, but it's there in case there is one. And that preventative prevents a lot of crime. Let's just be honest here.
Starting point is 01:06:15 When we see strong armed robberies, they don't take place where they have a lot of individuals that are armed. They usually take place in situations where people are disarmed so so what's what's that movie with uh gerard butler and the guy's breaking his house and like kill his family and it becomes like this crazy revenge rampage yeah i don't know the name of it what was that what was that movie called i forgot i don't he's great i'm not a big movie guy so it's it's gerard butler and what is this leonidas from 300 let me let me see if i can look this up did you watch it what happened in the movie i haven't seen the movie it's a law-abiding citizen so he's uh work he's a he's a dad he's got a wife and a kid and then one day there's a his doorbell rings and he opens it and then he immediately gets smacked in the head with a
Starting point is 01:06:59 baseball bat and falls down they zip tie his hands and then they murder his wife and his daughter she's later on when these guys get probation or whatever or you know get off on good behavior he kidnaps and tortures them and then publicly releases the evidence purposely want to go to prison and then tries to get revenge on the system i digress i'm not making a point about that i thought it's a great movie i wish i think the ending was bad but you know that it is what it is but i was thinking about that and i'm like based on this character's willingness to like get revenge you know he doesn't seem like gerard's butler's character does not seem like a a shy man to say the least
Starting point is 01:07:35 but i was thinking about even having a firearm in your home is no guarantee you'll be prepared for when the threat really really comes yeah which is why being able to open carry is important being able to have your weapon on you and being comfortable confident and well trained because when you answer the door someone might crack in with a baseball bat i mean it's it's a movie i know but you know i think about this just working here and everything like that and and wondering about what's the point of even having a fire extinguisher if it's too far away and a fire happens you can't put it out right when. When chaos ensues, things happen fast. You got to have a fire. So we put fire extinguishers in like every room.
Starting point is 01:08:10 Like most businesses will do this. They'll have a fire extinguisher in every room. Okay. Well, what happens if you see this? You know what I love? You see this commercial. There's a gun control commercial where a guy angrily storms into an office with a musket. And then he fires once.
Starting point is 01:08:22 And then he stops. And he starts loading it. He pours the powder in. And then he puts the ball. And he starts stuffing it. loading it he pours the powder in and he puts the ball and he starts stuffing it and it's like uh-huh we get the point and they were like this is what the founding father is expected and i'm like how do you subdue a threat when kids can go into a school with any weapon they want and go on a rampage like how do you stop the threat you got to go to the root that's my thing i don't know if you can you can you can try and make less threats that's probably the best way to do it and i think the threats are
Starting point is 01:08:47 pharmaceutical drugs personally i i think that a lot of inner city crime comes from drugs or alcohol abuse and desperation poverty that leads to those kind of things it's easy to get a 40 it's easy to that doesn't get get an ounce of weed now you're blaming people for smoking weed and drinking but when you look at a lot of mass shootings, these kids are whacked out. These humans have wide eyes. They look like they're on something. I would disagree with you saying if someone gets high or drunk, they go shoot up places, especially if they get high. I wouldn't say that.
Starting point is 01:09:12 I don't think that's true. But I think the point that you're getting at is that a lot of mass shooting events were connected to individuals who were on SSRIs. Notably, yeah. Yes. Well, so, yes. But the point I'm saying is there's cultural issues. In Chicago, a leading factor for these shootings is lovers' trysts. Like, I went night crawling, and a bunch of these deaths we were tracking was a guy smack-talking some other guy on Twitter or Snapchat about some girl he was hooking up with.
Starting point is 01:09:39 People think it's gangs. It's not. So there is a culture issue. We used to have duels. We used to actually have this. I guess now what they're doing is nothing to do with honor. It's just like the willingness to kill someone who slights you. Back in the day, that at least give you 10 paces and then you turn, right? What's happening in Chicago is a guy will post on Snapchat, like, you know, after your girlfriend, the other guy says, oh, you're going to get it. And then the guy drives
Starting point is 01:10:02 his house and shoots the other guy. That's what's happening in Chicago. So that's a cultural problem where someone's willing to kill someone else. We just had this story where some young girl stabbed another girl to death just because like they... They were bragging about it on social media. That's another part. That's absolutely sick.
Starting point is 01:10:17 That's why I'm saying... They were young children. It has nothing to do with guns. I think guns are a scapegoat for the deep-seated cultural problems and the cultural decay affecting this country. Well, humans have been killing each other forever. But what I'm saying is if you go to Austin and everyone's open, caring, and you're not having this extremely high murder rate, then what's going on in New York City?
Starting point is 01:10:36 Something is broken and has nothing to do with guns because there's no correlation between the murder and guns. If you look at, you know, the city of Chiran, they are arming themselves illegally because the Mexican government tells them to stop arming themselves. They told them to give up their weapons and their death rate in their town went to zero percent. It was some of the highest death rate in all of Mexico went to zero when the citizens started to arm themselves and literally kicked out the government and the police and the cartels all along in one smooth move. So we're having an individuals that are armed, that do have a lot of firearms, that are protected, that have their own
Starting point is 01:11:15 militias, that do open carry throughout the streets. And you have zero murders when you had hundreds of murders beforehand and the highest death rate in all of Mexico in Michoacan, one of the deadliest states of all of Mexico. So that's another tale that I think is worth noting, worth talking about here with this larger debate, especially in Mexico where guns are illegal, but homicides by firearms are extremely high. Maybe, you know, that Thomas Jefferson quote, assuming it was Jefferson. It is Jefferson. It is Jefferson. You got it right. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:44 Maybe the issue is actually people should reasonably respect, trust, and fear each other. Yeah. Reasonably. Yeah. What I mean by that is I should, you know, look, if you've got some dude who's like 6'6 and like 220, just sheer muscle or 250 or whatever, and I don't know what the right muscle mass to like height would be, but like some super ripped dude. Jack Murphy.
Starting point is 01:12:05 Well. Some super Jack Murphy dude. be. But like some super ripped dude. Jack Murphy. Well. Some super Jack Murphy dude. Yeah. But like. Super soldier. I don't know if Jack Murphy's a super soldier. He's just tall. But just think of Jack Murphy while we're telling this story.
Starting point is 01:12:14 No, I'm talking about like a He-Man type. Yeah. And he walks around knowing that he's bigger and stronger than everyone and pushes him around. Now you have a five foot tall woman. And he's laughing at her and mocking her. And then she's got on her waist, you know, she's got a revolver. And so all of a sudden he's a bit more respectful. It's people know like with with being armed and being respectful, trustworthy, but also having something, you know, giving someone reasonable fear of if they screw with you, they have something to fear this.
Starting point is 01:12:44 This way, you might have back in the day some big tall guy who knows he's stronger than you can push you around. Now I've got everybody who's armed and they're going to be like, I'm not worried about you shooting me, but I'm not going to screw with you because I know you can. That works if people are not desperate, but when people are civil, but if people become desperate, they change. They become wild animals. Well, that's the point I was making about the fences around the perimeter of D.C. and the veil shattering of the media narrative. And now this like huge gun ban and Joe Biden's plan for like taxes on firearms and magazines and all this stuff. Because they're seeing now that people can see what's happening. They can see the manipulation.
Starting point is 01:13:23 Their jobs, their lives were destroyed. They're becoming desperate. And we already saw what happened with the killdozer. So they're like, can we ban the guns from all of these people who are going to get really angry at us? Yeah, I feel like we've got to just give over to the fusion. Fusion power and molecular printing and exploration and evolution. We've got to colonize Mars.
Starting point is 01:13:41 We're going to keep expanding and growing as a society because if we try and stop that momentum, we're going to end up stressing out and killing each other i feel like that's what we've been doing and it doesn't look like it's going to change you see they want more defense well historically if you look at the largest killer of people it's usually democide which is death by government so historically saying what the biggest threat here, it's usually typically government. We need people to have confidence in the system and feel comfortable and respected. And that's not happening. You talk about wanting to go to Mars and fusion energy and all that stuff.
Starting point is 01:14:17 And I completely agree. It's just really hard to do when you have a manipulative sociopathic establishment that strips the value of all the working people and allocates it to really dumb things yeah people don't like copper copper mining they're obsessed with copper wiring because of all that profit from the copper if we if we started using wireless power we wouldn't need the copper anymore all those people would lose so much money depending on who you ask i mean a lot of conservatives are pointing out that that a lot of high-profile investors make money off the trains transporting crude and the freight transporting
Starting point is 01:14:50 crude so they don't want keystone pipeline they they want to get rid of it so that they can keep charging contracts for the transportation of oil and things like that oil that's another one they don't they people love pumping their oil the copper and the oil um what else do they need there's a lot of issues with the system misappropriating things. But when you look at the amount, let me make it very simple. We have $10 million. Should we spend it on, I don't know, covering the medical costs for as many U.S. citizens as possible, which wouldn't be that many relative to total population? Or should we allocate it to Pakistani gender studies programs? That's my point the system is so broken yes i'd love fusion yes i'd love to
Starting point is 01:15:30 go to mars i want to do it what do we we rely on elon musk to get us there by 2026 he's saying right the private sector is doing it instead of the government because the government's taking your money and giving it away to foreign countries and it's been hijacked our infrastructure's crumbled hijacked by the Federal Reserve and those dudes, John Rockefeller and his buddies in the early 1900s. They wanted to establish a system that couldn't screw them over again. Rockefeller was pissed after he lost Standard Oil. I'm sorry to interrupt.
Starting point is 01:15:53 Let me just interject one thing real quick. I don't want people to feel like there's no hope. The fact that they're talking about banning weapons and building security is irrelevant just for one reason. game stop stuff is working the the media narrative has been totally blown out and we can see it now which means i'm fair i'm really optimistic actually hugely i think what we're seeing now is the old guard has lost their ability the establishment has lost control and the people are taking the power back and i wasn wasn't so confident, you know, earlier in the year, but seeing Wall Street bets challenge these hedge funds and win,
Starting point is 01:16:29 seeing how desperate the media has become, and then seeing that they've become so desperate, they are revealing themselves. I'm like, wow, they're done. They're done. They're not going to be able to carry out these lies anymore. The Wall Street bets thing is nonpartisan. Everybody's mad at Wall Street for what they did and for what they're doing. And the media's desperate attempts to shield them won't work because people can just open their phone and see they're lying. It's kind of like as the water boiled, the first bubble that popped up was Occupy Wall Street after the collapse in 2008. Like it really started to appear after 2007 with Internet video. And we could read all the code finally.
Starting point is 01:17:03 We could see the inner workings and then that was the first bubble it rised up and it popped and they kind of glazed over but now another bubble is rising identity politics bro yeah they try to smooth it out they're like no it's not boiling see there's no bubbles on the surface right now so it's not boiling there's another bubble coming after 2008 the terms whiteness systemic racism intersectionality white supremacy discrimination all of them skyrocketed right after occupy wall street because when they saw the class war coming they said make it an identity war and now it's like a russian thing they're trying to make it
Starting point is 01:17:35 a nationalist oh yeah yeah meanwhile wage salaries all of them when you adjust them for inflation dramatically going down people are getting screwed over more than ever. Wealth between the rich and the poor is widening like never before, especially from last year when the stock markets and all the hedge funds and all the big banksters were making money hand over fist while everyone was suffering. Dude, I'm going to say this. I was right. I said the best thing for Democrats would be for Trump to win because it allows them to keep control of
Starting point is 01:18:05 the populist left. Once Trump is out and the left says, OK, we hate Biden, too. What are they going to do? Now you've got all the Trump supporters who hate Biden and the progressives left who hates Biden. And now all of that populist energy is pointed at the establishment. Step one, Wall Street bets. And you've got the donald trump forum patriots that win formerly the donald cheering this on and then you've got socialists and tankies far right far left up down whatever you want to call it they're all laughing and cheering and i will say this is maybe very optimistic of the biden administration's uh next four years the way this is going no i mean that's what that's what i've been saying for years i've been saying it for months i've been saying it for weeks it's coming four years, the way this is going. No, I mean, that's what I've been saying for years.
Starting point is 01:18:45 I've been saying it for months. I've been saying it for weeks. It's coming. This is only the beginning. Did you see the meme where the guys like day one of the lockdown haven't really spoken, haven't gone out yet? I wonder how this will go. Day 90, I've baked a new bread recipe.
Starting point is 01:18:58 It's going well. Day 310, well, it seems like a man with Viking horns is now the president of the Senate. Day 330. Reddit's coordinated attack on Wall Street is going as planned. You forgot the three masks and the buttocks probes. A part of that. Three masks.
Starting point is 01:19:17 By the way, Dr. Fauci came out today on national television, said, there's no data showing that two masks work. After recommending... Yes, yes, yes. He literally said that. He literally was on on national television said there's no data showing that two masks work after recommending yes yes yes he literally said that he literally was on national television and he was like there's no data that that talks about that that it makes any difference after saying last week that it's common sense for people to wear two masks again another major flip-flop and if we go into the covid 19 thing what about all the national guardsmen troops that are coming down with covid we're also hearing that there's a massive cover-up with the national guard
Starting point is 01:19:49 troops uh that's covering up hundreds of them that are put into very close quarters sharing small amount of restroom facilities not being able to shower not being able to sleep properly getting a ton of covid and there's no mainstream media hysteria about a super covid spreader event like there was with the alleged insurrection which is again just another layer of hypocrisy here that needs to be unfurled so people understand through the bullcrap the reality that we live in so i'm i'm just watching everything kind of fall apart and then i go out to today to go you know we're gonna go grab i had to run some errands, go to the post office, go grab some food. And everything was closed.
Starting point is 01:20:26 And, you know, I mentioned it earlier in the show. Went to a Mexican restaurant, just closed. No signs in the door. And I was confused what's going on. They're supposed to be open. KFC was closed. Some other local restaurants were closed. And then I was just like, you know what?
Starting point is 01:20:38 That's it. We're in a simulation. And they're drawing down the computing power. So now there's no people anywhere. People aren't in the streets anymore because they're inside because of covid the restaurants are all closed the the media narrative is breaking the system is falling apart and i'm like is it is it because the simulation is like running its course it's expired now and so like the the simulation where they're just turning down the power and now there's nothing left to do and
Starting point is 01:21:03 we're on the verge it's's like the end is nigh. No, no, no, no. We're getting into the final chapters. We're getting to the end boss when it gets really interesting, when it gets really difficult, in my opinion. But also, NBC News, last week, they cited someone that said,
Starting point is 01:21:15 you need four masks. What? Four masks on an NBC News article recommended by the media. Dr. Fauci, common sense last week, this week? Okay, Luke, if NBC is recommending four masks, then it's common sense that five masks would just be better.
Starting point is 01:21:31 No, no. Six would be better than five. Yeah, yeah. You just got to do more masks. More is always better. Listen, you're wrong. If six masks would be good, then it's common sense that seven masks would be better.
Starting point is 01:21:43 That's a good point. Yeah, good conversation. Thanks, guys common sense that seven masks would be better. Well, that's a good point. Yeah. Good conversation. Thanks, guys. Ten masks. I got an idea. Let's just make a video where we wear as many masks as possible. See how far we can get? We would pass out.
Starting point is 01:21:54 I'm still sick. I can't breathe. I can't breathe. Well, you'll be passing it on because you'll be dead. Just smother yourself with a pillow. I'm looking for an article right now about a scientist coming out and saying it is almost i think he might have even said that it's definitive that covid was made in a laboratory well did you read the source okay i gotta find this article i read it earlier i should have had it with me i i'm there's so much politics involved in in a lot
Starting point is 01:22:19 of these stories i'm just like look man it's been a year i don't. Let's just have a surgical reopening of businesses, get people their lives back. Hey, 100%. And the discussion of origin at this point isn't going to save Bob and Sally's mom and pop shop. And that's what I'm worried about. So what's done is done. The New York Mag ran that article. I get it. Oh, New York Mag ran that?
Starting point is 01:22:41 New York Man, the lab leak hypothesis article. So YouTube wants to ban people for bringing it up, then media matter smears you if you do and then New York mag and Huffington Post are the ones who actually promoted it. It was in May, Washington Post ran the lab leak hypothesis. But now I'm just sitting here like it's a distraction in my opinion. Getting people to talk about the origin doesn't change the fact that it is Cuomo. It is these Democrat governors and many republican governors who have chosen to destroy your life like it maybe it would help us learn how to deal with it if we understood if it was human-made or if it was naturally understanding the origin maybe i don't know the lab leak hypothesis isn't that it's human-made oh what is it it's that they were trying they took the virus and they were trying to develop a vaccine for it and it leaked out of the lab so they're actually i could be wrong i think there is a portion that suggests they were trying to develop a vaccine for it and it leaked out of the lab. So actually, I could be wrong. I think there is a portion that suggests they were manipulating it in an attempt to develop vaccines. And that, like it wasn't made in the sense that it,
Starting point is 01:23:33 the lab-like hypothesis. It wasn't made as a weapon, you're saying? Right, right, right, right, right. Trying to be very carefully because, you know. It could be either or. We don't have any accurate, exact evidence. We don't have any exact evidence, but we have a lot of theories and
Starting point is 01:23:46 we have a lot of you know hypothetical information i just don't think it's going to save is worse people you know it's worth people doing their own homework their own research and making up their own minds i think it's a distraction at this point i think i think we need to figure out why they're destroying people's lives and businesses and that's that's the yeah and what made me think about it is that you're saying the National Guards are getting it. And it's been underreported that they're being stuffed into unsanitary conditions. Well, of course, there's thousands of them that were literally put into parking lots, sleeping on top of each other. There were thousands of people sharing one bathroom and having no facilities to shower and clean themselves.
Starting point is 01:24:20 What do you think that's going to what do we think that's going to happen here? What's his name? Tony Robbins really had an interesting take about this thing that we can't even mention here. Yeah, he went off. I tweeted about it. We can't even say exactly what he said here. Maybe in the bonus segment. Yeah, I think in the bonus section. Let's talk about that.
Starting point is 01:24:37 I want to talk about the CFR also. I tweeted that video under Luke Weir Change. Eye-opening video. We should play it later on in the special section. All right, so let's do this because we do have another segment I want to talk about. Before we move on, we'll do a bonus segment after this show talking about masks, labs, COVID, all that stuff, and what's being reported, what's being said. And this is our safe space at TimCast.com where, believe it or not, even though it's members-only content, they'll still come after us no joke i could imagine because you can be you can be you can be charged for things that you've done off the site youtube will ban you for things you've said on other platforms you got to
Starting point is 01:25:12 be vigilant but we're gonna we're gonna we'll talk about it and we'll go through these things because as far as i'm concerned i think it's only a matter of time before they nuke us off these platforms hey man that's why we're getting that's why we're're doing... Independent. I mean, I'm not going to say anything that I don't already say on my YouTube channel. Right. But we're just going to have to be careful how we say it with the official sources, with, of course, the documents,
Starting point is 01:25:34 with, of course, in a way where it's done honestly so there's no excuse to ban anyone or to hit anyone or to strike anyone because, I mean, we literally dot our I's, cross our T's, we make sure that every... Like that matters. All the information, it doesn't matter, but at the end of the day it does factor in so there is a factor to this that that makes the people in the middle who are watching this who are who are not knowing what's going on that that's the people you got to play for you got to play for the people in
Starting point is 01:25:58 the middle who who haven't made up their mind yet and if you could show them without a without a doubt that you did your job correctly you looked at at everything you provided accurate good information to the people and and if they still hit you for that you're going to gain a whole lot let me let me let me just say one thing real quick um because i want to segue into this next segment and then we'll do super chats after it but if you go to timcast.com we actually have an entire bonus episode it's 45 minutes long talking about epstein and a bunch of those things that YouTube would absolutely ban us for and so that's if you're a member you'll get that and then we're gonna
Starting point is 01:26:29 we're gonna you know we're gonna go ham we're gonna talk some of this I want to make this world a better place this is what I'm doing why I'm here and I know that people that run YouTube and Google know that free speech is one of the core tenets of what will help us democratize this planet and I also understand you're running a website and you need to moderate it and make sure that things don't spiral out of
Starting point is 01:26:48 control so conspiracy theories can confuse people but i i believe that we are on the same path and that we want to help people so bro i think that talking about these things in a balanced way is what makes you incredibly important what makes you think YouTube believes in free speech? Well, YouTube's just a company name. I think that the people that work there, from my experience, because I was with YouTube before Google bought them, and Chad Hurley was the man, and the essence of YouTube, being able to make video and put yourself out there to speak your truth, is still prevalent. And Google liked that, and that's why they bought it.
Starting point is 01:27:23 And they want to subsidize it so that people can make a living doing that. Jack Dorsey and Mark Zuckerberg don't care at all. Well, I'm not worried about Twitter and Facebook right now. YouTube doesn't either. That's a corporate company name.
Starting point is 01:27:35 I mean, I don't know. The company doesn't, Susan Wojcicki doesn't care about free speech. Well, they're on it. Let's talk to her about it. They will ban you in two seconds. They do not agree with you. They believe that free speech and the spread of ideas results in some rabbit hole radicalization nonsense.
Starting point is 01:27:48 I just don't want to assume. I don't want to assume what they think. Actions speak louder than words. They have. Yeah, but I wouldn't judge people's future based on what they did in the past. What? Like just because they said some stupid stuff back in the day doesn't mean that they are going to be hundreds of thousands of users they purged one percent of the entire website well they're running a website about it to a bunch of media outlets about how they were doing the right thing
Starting point is 01:28:12 they don't agree with your right to say you speak your mind i get i just i understand i empathize with trying to moderate a billion person website it's not i get it but why would they ban conservatives just because a conservative has an opinion where he's like, I'm critical of immigration. Banned. You're both... Both of you guys are right. And I think the scenario here is as unfolding as you guys both see it. But I think there is a small chance, what Ian is saying, that there's a middle person that could say, well, they actually did everything by the book. They did everything correctly. They actually provided a service that's good and might not report it to the higher ups. So that might be the opportunity and chance that you're
Starting point is 01:28:48 right but but you're right at the end of the day if someone at the top wants to strike someone down if you want to hit a dog you're always going to find a stick that's what my dad always told me if you want to hit a dog you're always going to find a stick what does that mean that means don't push your luck don't just keep you know, bunting your head and thinking that, you know, the essence of what you're arguing is. I was walking through the woods trying to find a stick to throw for a dog to play fetch,
Starting point is 01:29:10 and it took me a little while to find the actual stick, and I didn't want to hit it. I just wanted to play fetch. Okay, whatever. I eventually did find the stick, though. It's a... You proved his theory correct.
Starting point is 01:29:19 Exactly. Or at least you... So at the end of the day, that person that's on the top, that's making these bigger kind of generalized orders, he or she could only do so much right so so they can't just ban outright everyone all the time and we should never give them an excuse to to give them uh any reason to do it we gotta do we're gonna do one more segment and then we'll do super chats
Starting point is 01:29:40 but uh and this one you know this one probably be like 10 or 15 minutes or so but uh check out this story it's not the biggest story in the world but it needs to be it needs to be talked about SWAT team sweeps homeless out of Washington State Hotel that was taken over by activists this should be major news check this out two Olympia police SWAT teams two teams went door-to-door at the Red Lion Hotel night, breaking up what police called a forcible occupation by homeless advocates. Other officers escorted out employees who were sheltering in the basement for more than six hours, feeling trapped, police said. Seven people were detained.
Starting point is 01:30:16 Seven people were detained. And more arrests are expected, CBS affiliate Cairo TV reports. The incident was similar to one seen recently in Fife, Washington. The activists from a group called Only Housing Now paid for 17 rooms for one night, moved in 33 homeless people, and tried to arrange for them to stay indefinitely without paying. They demanded that Thurston County use funds from FEMA to pay for rooms. We're just ready to stand our ground. We don't mean any harm. We actually want this hotel to get business. That's the opposite of what's going to happen, by the
Starting point is 01:30:49 way. Police said they started receiving calls at about 11 a.m. from hotel employees who said people with batons, knives, hatchets, gas masks, helmets and goggles had entered the lobby, apparently prepared for a confrontation. Once officers estimated there were about 45 members of the group inside and out. Now they just had batons, knives, gadgets, gas masks, helmets, and goggles. They don't mean any harm. The knives are for buttering their bread and making toast for the homeless. The batons are for playing
Starting point is 01:31:16 wiffle ball out in the backyard. And the masks? Those are just to look cool. Well, everyone's got to wear a mask. It's COVID. They were being conscientious when they decided to take over a hotel. I see you've done your due diligence what you've obviously looked into this no i just read i read the story these people have staged an armed occupation of a hotel a private hotel that's right okay have you heard did you hear about this no but i'm kind of glad the swat team came in and cleared them out two swat teams wow raided a hotel because far-left activists with weapons were threatening hotel employees.
Starting point is 01:31:50 Because they're desperate for a place for people to live? Yeah. In the winter? Yeah. And, you know, it does underscore very serious problems we have in our country. You know, I was talking about Jon Stewart earlier. He tweeted that, I guess in response to getting smacked around by like these these late night hosts over his pro Wall Street bets comment, he said, So if I do good at this, do I become president?
Starting point is 01:32:16 And then I was like, Yeah, become president. What do you do? Run on your unrelenting support for 911 first responders? Yeah, I totally vote for that. No, really, I would totally vote for that. Jon Stewart's awesome. And the point I was making is that we will send $10 million to Pakistani gender studies programs. For what reason, I have no idea. We'll send billions of dollars in foreign aid while we have people sleeping on the streets. Now, I'm not saying the solution is just giving these people homes or taking over a hotel. I worked for a homeless hotel. I've worked for nonprofits. The problem is extremely complicated. Many of these people are not well. They can't work even if they want to because they're not well. So what do we do? We don't just throw them in the street. Well, what happens is when our
Starting point is 01:32:58 government takes our money, our tax dollars, when they print massive amounts of money, they strip our value away and their buddies rip us off they send that money overseas for god knows what and they do nothing to solve the problem yeah and you end up with a bunch of angry people who show up with batons and that doesn't solve the problem either but hey i can respect the anger to be honest i'm sick of what i'm sick of the money being wasted on on nonsensical bullcrap i don't't understand how the Flint crisis went on as long as it did. With them screaming and everyone knowing and every left-wing advocacy group saying, these pipes are getting
Starting point is 01:33:32 lead in the kids' mouths. And it's like, yeah, but gender studies in Pakistan, you know, they need money for those programs, right? Yeah, and where did they get the money? I mean, we're talking about income tax, sales tax, property tax, capital gains tax, which a lot of people are going to be finding out about very soon, especially if you're on Reddit. Inheritance tax.
Starting point is 01:33:49 I mean, when you look at the rate that the American people are taxed, I mean, it's not as high as Europe. But when you add it all up, it's absolutely incredibly jaw-dropping to understand how much money the government takes. And then where do they spend the money? As you said, speedboats for Sri Lanka. That was literally in the budget bill that was passed. What's going on in Myanmar? I hear there was a military revolution. Well, that's a whole other topic.
Starting point is 01:34:14 Has that been funded by the U.S.? But this is another thing. Before we jump there, I want to finish on this topic here particularly because when you look at the homeless situation, it's about to get way, way worse. Not only because of the larger financial tsunami coming our way from the ramifications of the 2020 lockdowns, which they're coming, which we still haven't felt the full ramifications of, it's going to hit people and it's going to hit people hard.
Starting point is 01:34:38 Economic flows usually take months, usually even take sometimes years to fully affect people. But this is another thing we need to realize here. A lot of the homelessness issues are surrounded mental health. Mental health is plummeting in the United States at a dramatic rate. When we see suicides, self-harm, depression going dramatically down, and that's going to cause another extreme situation. And when you have extreme situations, people are going to see extreme solutions just like those people in the hotels and i'm not i'm not i don't want this to happen what we're seeing is the extraction of the system at the very last minute i think that the the establishment elites the politicians the wall street bankers the big ceos and all the stuff they've given up they're looking at everything and they're like ship's going down what should we do
Starting point is 01:35:23 well grab as much of the fine china and silverware as you can, get to an escape boat, and then get out before anyone realizes the ship's sinking. Ship going down. That's what it feels like. It feels like the homelessness crisis, the evictions that are looming, the fact that people aren't getting cash right now, their businesses have been destroyed. The ship is about to crash. They know it.
Starting point is 01:35:46 And so they're just like, let's just take what we can. Yeah, they're printing as much as they can, buying as much land as they can, investing in as much stock and stuff that's going to go. Not investing, shorting the stocks to make sure that they're – Look, they printed all this money. Most of it goes to these massive corporations. They pay out their bonuses. They buy land. They buy hard assets.
Starting point is 01:36:04 Then the dollar tanks. Then what? They leave you holding buy land. They buy hard assets. Then the dollar tanks. Then what? They leave you holding the bag. Homelessness is pretty nasty. I agree with you. I've also seen that some people with mental disabilities or whatever that are just are not in a position that even if you give them a place to stay, a job and a bunch of money, they're going to fail and land right back on the street. There are some people like that. But there are many people that are homeless and what they need is a shower and a bed. They need a shower so that they can clean themselves
Starting point is 01:36:30 so that they can become presentable to get the job. Because if you stink, you're not going to get the job. They need a shower. They need a clean shirt. They need a haircut. They need a shave. And it's really hard to do when you live nowhere. You have nowhere to go.
Starting point is 01:36:44 And so that's why I do like these shelters. I don't know if we'll ever find a solution because sometimes people become destitute. Sometimes people, you know, they can't. I don't know. Repurposing empty buildings for homeless people. Why is that not more common? Who maintains the building? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:37:02 I don't know. Where does the money come from? They've tried that in the past and the buildings fall apart and they become ghettos and then crime and disease it is a very real problem that we need to find the root of and get to the root of but the reality is sometimes people become homeless because they don't have the mental health required and i don't mean they're crazy some people are too depressed and it's a serious issue some people have schizophrenia some people people have psychotic disorders and need medication. Some people can't afford the medication. You get left with a large group of people that are just basically thrown in the gutter, and we have no real easy way to solve the problem. It may not be a problem that can be solved, to be honest, but we can mitigate it properly. I don't think occupying a hotel solves the problem in fact it's probably gonna make it worse not by force definitely well you know we already have
Starting point is 01:37:49 that we already have section 8 housing we already have projects so there's government buildings where people live in so and they function of course you gotta you gotta fly through hoops to get into section 8 like whereas a homeless shelter you just walk in and stay. If you look at the poverty rates, it's usually a cycle that just keeps spinning itself into oblivion with the way that the system has established itself that essentially screws people over with either too much taxes, too much regulations, too much on them that decentifies anyone from any kind of economic mobility because there's barely any left. You're talking about low-skill jobs. They're replaced by immigrants. You're talking about high-skill jobs. They're replaced by visa programs for immigrants. And then companies like Elon Musk get in trouble for not hiring enough immigrants. So where's the upward economic mobility? There isn't none. It's a scam. It's all a big system where people within the banking system literally print zero onto a computer, and that's how our financial system is run. Meanwhile, everyone else, what do they do? They get stuck in this poverty cycle
Starting point is 01:38:56 that they never get out of because there's no way out of it. I'm thinking two things. Either UBI, we print a bunch of money, doesn't seem to work work and then this Microsoft patent 060606 where we implant you know chips in these people and then just their biometrics can earn them cryptocurrency so that they have
Starting point is 01:39:11 some money just for being I don't think implanting was anything having to do with it might not have to implant you could do a tattoo it could be something you eat I don't know
Starting point is 01:39:18 but you put something in them or on them so that it measures their bioactivity maybe a watch so that you know are they looking at the billboard? If so, they earn cryptocurrency.
Starting point is 01:39:26 Just sit there and watch the billboard all day. I have a conspiracy theory. What's that? Ian's the elite. Someone else said I was an arm of the AI, that I'm the avatar of the AI. You are? I said that on Twitter.
Starting point is 01:39:35 Yeah, someone suggested that. Why is that? Because of these things I'm talking about, maybe. Like you're encouraging? Because that would lead us towards the matrix where people are in pods, like generating heat for the system, this giant machine that's like controlling everything.
Starting point is 01:39:47 But otherwise, we have homeless people all over the street. Hitler's idea was kill them. He would wrap up all these mentally ill people and just have them killed because they were ruining his society. That I don't want to do. The matrix is terrifying, putting people in pods. But what do you do? They're on the street. If they can't take care of themselves.
Starting point is 01:40:06 There's poop everywhere. What do you do? Because we're animals. We're wild, barely tamed animals. And if we're not mentally prepared, what do we do? No idea. Look, I've worked for a homeless shelter, a network. There's no solution.
Starting point is 01:40:23 You know, a lot of homeless people refuse to go to shelters and refuse to get jobs. That's another problem. What do you do? Can't solve the problem. They refuse. You'll pull up and you'll say, we've got a clean shower. We've got a bed. We've got clothing.
Starting point is 01:40:35 And you don't got to do anything. You can just live there. They'll go, nah. I don't want to work for your system. No, there's no work involved. Literally, I worked for a shelter that would offer people no questions asked room and board at a house you get your own key you come in the back door you go right to your room no one asks you any questions you have a house you have a shower you have clothes
Starting point is 01:40:53 no they wouldn't take it but but and so in the meantime they're out on the street just like polluting the environment whatever literally like Literally like... Crapping on the ground. Yep. Blocking traffic. Yep. Terrifying people that are walking by. So one place in Northern California wants to rendition. That's probably the wrong word. But they want to take them and then gain power of attorney over their finances. And that's part of the justification is that you give these people even an opportunity
Starting point is 01:41:19 for a free place to live and they refuse. What do you do? So now they're saying they have the right to just take these people for mental health reasons and lock them up. that leads towards what hitler looks like what hitler was doing absolute tyranny absolute if like if somebody wants to sit on the sidewalk in you know in most places it's legal to do you can't block the sidewalk but they can't arrest you for being in public and sleeping they'll they they do sometimes uh in many places they probably do but in san franc, they'll get up every morning.
Starting point is 01:41:45 My friend Kelly Kettler is a community organizer for the homeless in San Francisco. And they'll come at like 4 a.m. with fire hoses. Just hose everybody on the sidewalk. They have a poop department. It's pretty bad. I think San Francisco is a really good example of what happens when you have an oligopoly. When you've got Zuckerbergs and Dorseys controlling the system. And they're ultra wealthy
Starting point is 01:42:05 elites who pretend to be good people dorsey's probably the worst because he's like this hippie guy who talks about all these great things and then he's just a billionaire who funds critical race theory and then people are crapping on the street and homeless and destitute but at least he can fund critical race theory right like that's solving the problem that's solving the problem homeless people come in from all different backgrounds these these people in silicon valley just want you to think they're doing a good thing so that way when you come with your pitchfork you ignore them because they're the good guys right meanwhile they're actually making the problems worse yep yes i'm gonna i'm gonna loss you know then yeah you know what what really frustrates me is that
Starting point is 01:42:45 it's the grifters it's the grifters man what do you mean there are people on the the there's establishment individuals who pretend to be on the left who would waste their time pulling quotes from me out of context for for the goal of making a partisan rage bait piece of content so like jimmy kimmel no no. I'm talking about people on YouTube who are grifters, who take clips from this show out of context. You're talking about specific people you're not naming.
Starting point is 01:43:10 And they cut and edit them so that they get you or Luke or me saying things and then they use that so that people don't want to listen to what we have to say. Because if they did, they'd be like, hey, we actually think a lot of
Starting point is 01:43:25 the same things we agree on a lot of same problems don't worry too much about that stuff no that that is the problem we're trying to unify the people against the the machine that is stripping our value away and destroying our lives and what happens is you get grifters useful idiots for the establishment who go on their shows take clips out of context from shows like this and then say tim pool is far right. When, like, literally, I'm pretty sure the entire bent of this show has been fairly left-wing. Pro-social programs for the homeless,
Starting point is 01:43:52 talking about Wall Street being bad. You'd think it would be a pretty left-wing positive, you know. I did say I like those SWAT teams going in there. Oh, yeah, you're far right now. That was kind of far right, wasn't it? We were pretty pro-gun. I guess that's a problem. The teeter-totter.
Starting point is 01:44:04 Someone cut me up and made me look really stupid. I'm already pretty stupid, but like, holy cow, that's not fair. Why'd you do that, man? I need more memes, so cut me up. Come on, man. Come on, man. I'll be fair. We did this thing on Jacobin where we looked at the magazine cover of Biden is Jesus, and
Starting point is 01:44:20 we were like laughing at them. But the greater context of the segment was about how the left in general, the establishment left, not the progressives, were overwhelmingly praising Biden with like sun, the sun clouds breaking and sunlight beaming down in the inauguration. And we were just using the Jackman thing as a launching point. But to be fair, we did not realize initially that it was meant to mock the exact same thing however in that podcast we did say oh man wait a minute there's drones on the cover this is probably parody it's like satire and then i said well if it is you know we deserve we deserve it right the problem was you could have
Starting point is 01:44:56 taken the episode and watched it and then been like guys we completely agree with you you missed this though we we were agreeing with you the whole time and i'd have been like oh look at that instead it was used by a bunch of leftists to mock and deride and insult this show even though they agree with us why i why they agree with we agree with them it's easy clicks exactly yeah these people are destroying our opportunity to call out the establishment i would say in regards to that jackman thing i i said it earlier i don't think text flies with sarcasm you don't see it when you see text and same with images you can't think text flies with sarcasm. You don't see it when you see text. And same with images. You can't tell if that's sarcasm or not. I mean, for me, it's like, whatever. It's okay. You did it. I'm just going to keep focusing on my mission and my job and my goals. And I'm going to
Starting point is 01:45:34 try to reach them. I'm going to try to help as many people as I can. And if they want to do that, let them do it. But at the end of the day, I'm going to be laser focused. It's not personal. It's about right now we have on reddit these people going after the machine and it's working and we have a non-partisan issue where everyone kind of agrees we're seeing donald trump jr and aoc agree on the same thing the issue is not personal i don't care if you call me a bunch of stupid names and mock my appearance like they do all i don't care it comes to territory don't expect to get into public you know spaces and think everyone's going to love you.
Starting point is 01:46:05 It's just not reality. The issue I'm worried about is not it's not personal. It's about how they do this to anybody who might actually agree with them that the tribe is more important than the cause. They will mock like you, Ian, probably agree with a lot of these left wing personalities substantially more than anyone we've had on the show, like especially criticisms of Donald Trump. But they would cut segments of a view to make you look like you're far right instead of
Starting point is 01:46:28 just being like, we like this guy. Because it's more for them. The tribe is more important than the cause. So my concern is we want to get people to rally around what we all agree on and build culture and community and support for the things we can accomplish. But the grifters are the ones who are destroying that because they're more interested in clicks and rallying people to hate each other what we can do is not grift if we can well we don't yeah i don't i really don't think i do i really do not
Starting point is 01:46:55 i try not to take people out of context man that that what was that kid who who had the native american dude in his face and he was smiling and right covington i took that i almost snapped on that and that that was a wake-up call for me to take mistake of taking people out of context we'll have anybody from left to right up down whatever on this show we clearly have you and i we have our arguments you'll be very critical of trump i wanted to argue with you more today but but it doesn't it doesn't work for them so like the one segment they did where they made where we were talking about jacobin they had to edit it to make Luke look stupid because they completely agreed with Luke and every point he was making about the Democrats. So they made it seem like.
Starting point is 01:47:32 How do you even get to see the image? I was just generally talking about the larger principles of not worshiping someone who's in politics. You shouldn't. Don't. They can't. There can't be a podcast where there's actually kind of a moderate view on things. So they have to edit it out of context. But it's not personal.
Starting point is 01:47:49 It's more about. Hey, on the upside, our show about Jacobin got, I don't know, half a million views, whereas the clips probably got a third of that. This show is getting more views than those clips. So that's a good sign. Well, you know, I just wish people would. Maybe, I think. I don't know. The tribalism is a problem. That being said, let's go to go to super chats we're a little long but uh we'll read your
Starting point is 01:48:08 super chats i'm gonna dip for a minute and then we're gonna have uh we're gonna have a bonus segment talking about lab leak hypothesis covid and where we're currently at and that'll be at timcast.com so make sure becoming become a member hopefully it'll be up around 11 or so but you know upload times because this is a straight upload We just do a segment after the show. Let's read some superchats. If you haven't already, smash the like button, subscribe, notification bell. Man, I ask for a lot, don't I? Yes. Angry Fish, thanks for the superchat. We got
Starting point is 01:48:33 Benjamin saying, make the right decisions in pursuit of freedom. Slap down my machine founded on protecting freedom. Why? To protect suits and their pocketbooks. Oof. Kargoosh says, SRO, self-regulating organization. It is an organization that is given power by the federal government to regulate a market. Ah, okay.
Starting point is 01:48:52 Oh. So it is essentially a regulator. All right. I wanted to be careful, so we changed the initial title, but thank you guys. Let's see. Amunra Al Ghul says, follower forever? This is my first super chat. You don't understand the attack on silver. It's not shares that WSS wants to kill. It's physical silver because it's
Starting point is 01:49:12 been shorted for 50 plus years. Alex Jones has covered this. I think we mentioned a little bit about that, but right. They're telling everyone to buy the shares and everyone else saying, no, no, no, no, buy the actual physical silver. Let's see. MD Noslu says, hi, I'm Tim Pool. I'm rich, but I need you to send me more money to tell you what you already know. Hi, I'm Tim Pool. I'm rich and I run a business where if you like getting this content, you can watch for free for 99% of that content, sometimes with ads or the sponsor read. And if you really like the content and would like to pay for a product that we produce,
Starting point is 01:49:49 you can go to TimCast.com and become a member. It's a really weird thing to me about running a business. Like, if I spent time making you a sandwich and then asked you to pay for it, most people would be okay with that. But there's a weird thing where online people are like, don't give money to this business for the products they produce because they already have money it's like okay yeah you don't have to i don't know greatly appreciate it when you do i remember for a long time being scared to ask for donations and just being like uh and feeling really awkward about it but it's like if you want to support us people
Starting point is 01:50:18 should know where to support us well listen the memberships TimCast.com come with a product. We produce exclusive content. Yeah. So we've added more work to our day to produce something which creates two paths for us to maintain the business. 99% is all free content. It's all free. And we just rely on ad sponsorships and super chats. So it's basically like a pay what you will model.
Starting point is 01:50:43 You don't have to super chat if you don't want to. And then we have the membership thing where we produce content that is ad free completely and uncensored and for those that are willing to buy that product. Sometimes it's awkward to market your own products. That's why people will hire marketing firms to do it for them. And why as an actor, you have an agent to go do it for you. So you don't have to be the one that's like, Hey, can I come in? And it's similar with, with timcast.com. Like I think people are like, Tim,
Starting point is 01:51:08 why? But like, dude, who else is going to do it right now? Me go to timcast.com and sign up. Well, look, if you,
Starting point is 01:51:13 if yeah, no, look, it's simple, man. We could always hire a marketing firm to do some YouTube ads for us. Look, we've got millions of subscribers across the board.
Starting point is 01:51:20 We have the best subscribers. And we've got like 0.001% of those who are members. It's fine. It's not a big deal. It's a lot of members. Have you disclosed the numbers of how many members we have? No, no. It's growing fast.
Starting point is 01:51:32 It is. Too fast. Guys, you signed up so fast. It was awesome. Keep signing up. Hey, I got my first donation, you guys, on Twitch. I got twitch.tv slash e-crossland. And I started using Streamlabs, which is like an upgraded version of OBS.
Starting point is 01:51:45 It's a multi-stream and I set up like a marketing thing where I'm selling t-shirts. I'll talk more about it maybe after the show's over. And I got a donation. My first personal donation. A couple very important Super Chats.
Starting point is 01:51:56 Crystal Mac says, please make a shirt with rabble, rabble, rabble on it. Hell yeah. I think that's a good idea. I agree. Nathan Snyder says, who wins, Godzilla or King Kong?
Starting point is 01:52:04 Very important Super Chat, by the way. Luke? I'm not a fan of either. Godzilla. He can like shoot lasers or whatever from his mouth. He can?
Starting point is 01:52:13 Yeah. Can he? Yeah, I think so. I thought he could. King Kong. Big monkey. I think Godzilla's like three times the size
Starting point is 01:52:19 of King Kong, isn't he? I have no idea. But they changed it for the new movie. Now they're the same size in the new movie so that they could fight. So who would you you pick i don't know i gotta read this super chat here yz250 moto says ian uh quote i want to talk about vibrations of the universe
Starting point is 01:52:35 tim quote shut your mouth hey those were quotes today not today all right here cryptic says only buy physical silver stay away from slv as if it well, I'm not going to finish that super chat, but not financial advice, by the way. Just a random internet comment. I got some physical silver. Not really enough. I've never been good at investing unless it's investing in myself. So if I was good at being part of the club and the 1%, I'd probably have way more money than I do. But all I do is just run a business and then not properly invest.
Starting point is 01:53:07 That's the silver mines, too. That's a good investment. I think. I've heard. I'm not a financial analyst. Let's see. We got one from CP. It says, long-time listener.
Starting point is 01:53:18 I love the show. I'm going to join TimCast.com tonight. Also, I would love to hear what George Carlin would have to say about everything going on right now. I wish, man. George Carlin was the man. about everything going on right now. I wish, man. George Carlin was the man. Dude, we got Rogan keeping it real. Yeah. And Carlin's, he's like Carlin's protege.
Starting point is 01:53:31 So this one's funny. Let's see. We actually interviewed Carlin on the We Are Change channel before he passed away. Wow. Is that on YouTube? Yeah. That's awesome. He said some very important things about 9-11.
Starting point is 01:53:43 We got a super chat from Peric S. Tiwari. The Big Short is the new Contagion. Just saw it again yesterday. Pretty good movie. Except The Big Short is based on real life. Yeah. The Big Short was 2008. A bunch of people were basically like, yo, these mortgage-backed securities are stuffed with garbage.
Starting point is 01:53:59 They're scamming people. So what do we do? Short it. Short it all. And people were like, you're betting against the housing market. Yup. And they're like, okay, you're nuts. And they were right.
Starting point is 01:54:09 What did they make? Like $800 million? Too much. But this is, the reason these people are considered folk heroes is because they called out the scammers who are ripping people off and destroying everything. And they made a profit doing it. Good for them. Let's see.
Starting point is 01:54:23 As Ascendant Media says, Dogecoin is real grassroots the idea is to leverage the power of a meme to mainstream crypto i get it that's the one good thing about dogecoin making big news and people seeing it as a viable option to make money and store their value to me it's funny but like what's the value of doge if you guys have some specifics about what it can do or or anything other than the meme of the dog, I really want to get serious and tell me. Because other than the goof, I'm not. That's it. That's why I don't care.
Starting point is 01:54:51 It's like go with Ethereum over Doge, right? To be honest, I would like to buy, me personally, I'd buy Doge just to have it and never trade it. Yeah, that's what I did. Yeah. It's just going to sit in cold storage because it's funny. Right. And it might be worth 10 million. It's kind of like buying a picture of gold.
Starting point is 01:55:08 Yeah. You know what I mean? It's like putting it on your... Yeah. It's something you find funny. And putting it in your safe. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:55:13 That'd be funny. All right. Let's see what we got. Brent Saigan says, Tim, please call out my brother Grant for listening to you for years but not becoming a member on your website. Please, for the love of God, he keeps asking me to show him the members- videos and it's incredibly annoying come on man there you go come on grant omega hunter 9 says how do i get one of those cool pictures when i leave comments on timcast.com uh you edit your profile that's it i think i don't know we are upgrading the whole site, and to be honest, I had people who had done it on PayPal for a long time, and I didn't realize how big the influx would be if we started the website.
Starting point is 01:55:52 But my friends, let me tell you something. I believe based on your memberships, the only thing stopping us from rivaling the Young Turks in terms of network and access and everything is time. I'm fairly confident, you know, and I'm not saying this to be disrespectful to the young Turks at all. I'm using them as sort of like a marking of where independent channels can be on YouTube. We've surpassed, my channels have surpassed them in views a long time ago. I did reduce the amount of content I produce, so it may have normalized. But now with the memberships, it's a possibility we get we can start like a 24-hour network hire on more personalities do separate shows and really expand this in ways I've never I didn't totally expect
Starting point is 01:56:34 I'll just put it this way I did not think that many would that many people would sign up so quickly and so many did I'm like okay now we need to rapidly expand what you get for that membership and it's probably gonna be big yeah it's probably going to be big. Yeah. It's probably going to be really big. I've been thinking a lot about expansion the last couple days. We're going to need to start new shows. We're going to need to do live streams.
Starting point is 01:56:51 And we might even do like a 24-hour live thing. So what that would really be, though, you know, we're going to start slow. We're not just going to start with 24 hours and have all these different hosts and everything. But the amount of people who signed up, I gotta say it's substantial and now i'm like okay let's do this we could do a 24 hour stream in the skate park with like a vip camera section where you can go up there sit down and talk to the camera 24 7 streaming we could literally have like seven shows where it's like the 3 p.m to 4 p.m show is like the you know so and so in the in the park with guests and then we we really are on the verge like of rivaling i've been streaming games i would
Starting point is 01:57:32 love to integrate that into the network like a 2 p.m gaming stream for an hour there's a there's a lot more that i i can't necessarily say about the expansion but uh it's good news for those who are investors in sub subverse now scanner we are working on this on this project and this will be really really good news for everybody i'll just leave it at that and we'll read the more super chats uh i will i will lightly touch on it too there were some issues i don't know if we sent out the the letter to the investors yet but we fully plan like covid really jammed up this the scanner project in in ways we could not foresee getting physical space hiring people was all completely shuttered because essentially couldn't
Starting point is 01:58:10 operate in cities but we do have we are working through the kinks and we plan on doing a big launch soon and that's what i'm talking about we have a news department a gaming department a music department and a tech department and a media department oh it's going to be big this is going to be big you guys are awesome by the way ryan ryan says the latest stock td ameritrade shutdown was hcmc in otc with their fight against philip morris i'm sure because our wall street bats talked about it interesting carl flynn says i highly recommend the book green eyes and black rifles by kyle lamb for practical rifle shooting. The man spent decades in SF and Delta, and I train my Marines using the TTPs in the book.
Starting point is 01:58:52 Cool. Very cool. Very interesting. We went out to the middle of West Virginia last weekend. And shot a rimfire.50 BMG. No, no, no. Breach loading. Breach loading.
Starting point is 01:59:03 Not rimfire. Yeah. And whatever it was, it was powerful. It was crazy. It was smaller than I thought it was going to be. Really? Well, because... You didn't want to shoot it. I didn't want to shoot it. No, I didn't. It's on your Instagram. There's video of it. It's intense. Luke fired it, and I was
Starting point is 01:59:18 standing slightly to the left, and the shock wave shut my phone off. I was filming Luke, and then after he fires, the shock wave hits me, and then I look and my phone off i was i was i was filming luke and then after the after he fires the shockwave hits me and then i look at my phone's off whoa yeah and then so you're like pushed the off button i have no i have no idea how it happened i don't know yeah it's a lot of force um it's something else dude in the youtube video on on or on the instagram video of luke you see him like crawling up on the gun he's on the gun. He's crawling through the mud, and then he's just wicked shocked.
Starting point is 01:59:50 It's remarkably simple how the breach load works. It's just you screw it off, you put it in, you screw it on, you pull the hammer back and click. That simple. It's no semi-auto Barrett, though. Nope. Let's see. Gerg C. says, Tim, you guys are killing me. SpaceX, because of DOD satellite contracts, are not allowed to hire non-Americans.
Starting point is 02:00:10 Really? That's weird. We were just reading the article. Yeah. Eric Miller says, if Occupy is the Bronze Age, would Wall Street Bets be the Silver Age? Then what's the Golden Age? Or what's the, you know, what came after the Silver Age? I don't know.
Starting point is 02:00:24 I don't know. If the Bronze Age or what's the, you know, what came after the silver age? I don't know. I don't know. After the bronze age was the. Scar forget. So there's actually a couple more comments. C. Hennessy says Musk explained in a Q&A that because it's rocketry, your employees have to get military clearance first before they can work. This limits employees. Oh, for sure.
Starting point is 02:00:40 Scar forget says Elon Musk can't hire non-U.S. citizens because the rockets are considered a national security issue. Weapons of mass destruction. Interesting. Sees the memes of production, says Benny Ocean. Now that is a meme. Correct. Yes.
Starting point is 02:00:53 So Tesla hires foreigners, not SpaceX. Okay. Interesting. Let's see. AC130 says, I'm 26. I'm a rapper from SC fighting the culture war from the inside. Hip hop's almost entirely woke now. Check out my next album, Self-Destruct Sequence 2 on March 1st.
Starting point is 02:01:11 Love y'all. Hope to meet you someday. I just want to also point out the easiest way to get an ad read on this show is a super chat. The issue is we can't read every single one. That's what makes it hard. But like, just shout out for this dude's album, Self-Destruct Sequence 2, on March 1st. Thanks for the superchats. See what 10 bucks can get ya. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:01:29 This Gaming Dragon says, first time superchat. Tim is Yotaro from Jojo. He can win at poker by not folding and raising until the other guy has a heart attack. By the way, you guys should get Salty Cracker if you haven't already. I don't know what that is. I looked that up. Spasmodia says, the next actual squeeze is Nokia, by the way well i'm not super convinced i did buy nokia because
Starting point is 02:01:51 i like nokia you ever see that you ever see the story about the guy who has a nokia phone and a bullet goes through it but stops no his life is saved by the phone there was a meme for a long time that nokia phones are indestructible it is still a meme and it is still a meme i saw it just recently so i saw the news and i was like i actually like tech has always been my jam my things i hold are typically like tech or some kind of you know manufacturing so i bought nokia because i actually like nokia i don't care for the you know i'm not i'm not gonna sell it i'm just gonna sit on it forever just because i like it but more importantly, I can't really buy any meaningful stock and say Google or Apple because it's too expensive. So Nokia was cheap, so I could afford it.
Starting point is 02:02:31 I have Tesla. I like Tesla. That's about as techy as I got. So expensive. I just think of it as what percentage of my net worth is going into it. I don't really worry about how much the stock. Because you can buy like 0.2% of a stock or whatever. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 02:02:43 Tesla is awesome, though. It's an awesome company. Mr. Behavior says listener first time caller i had to toss in a super chat after luke's epic rant you went off bro respect i just became a member on timcast.com recently wish you all luck with the site and we need it um look so many people signed up that we are like bringing people on working overtime to try and fix it and van like make it bigger because it's it it it's taken off man you guys rock spork which says registration leads to confiscation which leads to incarceration and extermination literally every single time i like my guns like democrats like voters undocumented but i'm matthew walden says hr 127 will bring what you fear maybe yeah i'm i'm not a fan of of this crazy stuff he's crazy you know restrictions sean anderson says i know i'm old
Starting point is 02:03:33 i know i'm old when you mentioned killdozer and my first thought was the 1947 sci-fi made for television movie starring clint walker it's on youtube check it out for a chuckle that sounds fun nimit says you you have lied to locked, and destroyed the businesses of give or take 100 million draft age males for over a year. Then you shove the fact the American dream is dead and every system is rigged in their faces. The powder keg is lit. Yup. Hands down. Skullgar Thane says,
Starting point is 02:04:01 Killdozer was a, probably intentional media, misnomer. He never actually killed anyone except himself once the bulldozer was a probably intentional media misnomer he never actually killed anyone except himself once the bulldozer finally got stuck yeah man was he shooting those guns yes he did jd 1989 says hi tim luke lydia and ian house resolution 127 is outright communist gun confiscation proposed by representative jackson lee this bill would disenfranchise all low-income firearm owners and be unilaterally illegal. Well, yeah, yeah. The taxes on a gun,
Starting point is 02:04:29 I believe, has to be unconstitutional because it would mean only rich people can have guns. But they do it already with, like, full auto, you know, NFA stuff. Machine guns.
Starting point is 02:04:35 Yep. Timothy Peterson says, how far could HR 127 potentially go on a.50 caliber ban? .50 cal is the most popular black powder caliber. i wouldn't put it past them ricky bobby says so louder with crowder started again today huge news they have
Starting point is 02:04:52 filed a lawsuit against facebook for removing their election stream the biggest independent stream removed from the biggest platform for no reason hope they win i i do too good go go crowder they got bill on it isaac hilstrom saysgecoin, we're going back to the moon. Okay. Marcus Carter says, 562,000 elected officials exist in the U.S. If 6 million people can buy GME, GameStock, why can't at least 562,000 Americans have the support to run for office? Yeah. Yeah, Crowder said he might run for office
Starting point is 02:05:25 that really i think he tweeted that out today didn't mike cernovich tweet out that he's running to be governor of california wow did he tweet that out am i wrong interesting eric heffelfinger says i've made six wall street posts on facebook dozen of picture video and news articles each time one post at 57 pics seven videos some being yours 23 news articles each time. One post had 57 pics, seven videos, some being yours, 23 news articles, dozens of people who I haven't spoken to in years reached out.
Starting point is 02:05:49 See, I like the Wall Street thing, man. It's bringing us together left and right. That's why the grifters get me down. They're trying to stop that unity. Nah. People realize that they're full of crap. I hope.
Starting point is 02:06:00 Most people. Well, now it's an opportunity to show everyone. Yep. Daniel Maxwell says, if there is not a peaceful resolution to the culture split soon, we will end up with a bloody civil war. That is a guerrilla warfare scenario. And what we end up with afterwards will not be a constitutional republic.
Starting point is 02:06:15 That is correct. It is not going to be good. You do not want guerrilla warfare. No. You just want to buy an I am guerrilla t-shirt. An I am a guerrilla t-shirt. We got more t-shirts coming i think we're going to do one of ian meditating but floating so your hair is wavy
Starting point is 02:06:31 oh i like that and then it says free the code yes yeah i love it yeah chakra colors behind me and then maybe maybe we'll hide somewhere in the art and the fed oh yeah we should do it we should do an end the fed line as well maybe or yeah repeal the federal reserve act yeah that's the that's the way i phrase it and the fed and we'll have like a little ron paul in the background like giving a thumbs free the code dude we need to free the code so we can build a free software system on well the the free the code is more like your actual catchphrase that's what i really care and like the end the fed was more just kind of i was brainwashed to say free the code by Bill though.
Starting point is 02:07:07 Free the code. I really do want to. Alright, here we go. James King says AMC diamond hands and then six rocket emojis. Kristen F says this is how messed up the GameStop stock thing is. I use a stock simulator app where I invest fake money into stocks and watch the market in real time.
Starting point is 02:07:24 Last week they took 8k of fake money out of my account, left me with $32. Wait, what? That's crazy. Fake money? Why? Arios says, I finally got a bit of extra cash again, so I'll share a bit with the pool party. I'm going to rewind because I'm a bit late. But if you guys read this, I just want to say that it always nice to listen at night.
Starting point is 02:07:46 Also, wah. Is that supposed to be like wah Luigi or something? Wah. I saw so many people were sad that we didn't do a show on Friday. I love you guys. We were wiped out, man. It gave me a chance to make the kombucha. I'll be honest with everybody.
Starting point is 02:08:01 It was kind of frantic because we had too many sign-ups and it overloaded and crashed the system. Yeah. I was actually working support. That night that Eliza was on, we had so many emails that had to go out that our site couldn't handle it. The next day was just like my brain was on fire. We both had headaches. If you haven't got an email yet, just stay cool.
Starting point is 02:08:23 Hang in there. They're all coming out. And if for some reason by the end of the week you still haven't gotten an email yet just stay stay cool they're all coming out and if for some reason by the end of the week you still haven't got an email just send another email the easiest way to explain it is an episode of simpsons where mr burns goes to the doctor and the doctor says that he has literally every disease known to man and so he says look at these oversized novelty germs now one of them can easily fit through the door but when they all try going through at the same time they get stuck that's basically what happened and so then once the door got jammed every new sign up was jammed and then the automated system broke and then it required manual intervention so uh success one by one one by
Starting point is 02:08:57 one we're all throwing in one by one but uh we love it so sign up at timcast.com it feels good every time i would fix one i'd be like, that's a human that is getting something. Yeah. All right, here we go. Grant Thompson says, you've got to see the Urban Dictionary's definition for TDS right now. Very Orwellian, their ability to rewrite definitions and control a layman's perception of reality. Yes, the Urban Dictionary got woke. And so the Trump Derangement Syndrome, which is a reference to people who are irrationally angry at Trump, turned into people who irrationally support Trump.
Starting point is 02:09:27 Wow. Yeah, something like that. I think Jeremy Hambly made that point when he was on the show, the quartering. The TDS can go in both directions. An irrational hate or an irrational love of Trump is both kind of a derangement. Grant Thompson says, oh, I just read that one. Jonathan Galtarini says, regarding gun rights, you should look up Arizona. I'm from AZ and was amazed how many restrictions there are for guns in Texas.
Starting point is 02:09:50 AZ's safer than Texas. And they're blue. Isn't that crazy? Paul Barnes says, also, I've been doing construction on Fort McCoy in Wisconsin, and they've been shipping APCs out all Friday and today. Not sure what for. Where? From where? This is Fort McCoy in Wisconsin.
Starting point is 02:10:08 Interesting. Adam Lynn says, Max started Crash JP Morgan by Silver in 2010, causing them to change their position. Heard him give Tim and Luke a shout out today during an interview saying 2021 is the year of the millennial. Very cool. Max is a good friend. We love Max and Stacey.
Starting point is 02:10:24 They're awesome. We gotta have them on. And yeah, we've. We love Max and Stacy. They're awesome. We've been trying to get them on. Were you there in France when we were hanging out? Oh, yeah. Of course. That was fun. We like photos. Stacy started following me on Twitter. Max and Stacy are amazing. Come on the show, guys. We were covering the climate protests, I think, and then we all
Starting point is 02:10:39 had a crazy night on the town, which was really fun. Eight snails. Yeah. When Max and Stacy come on, I want another chair because I want to do all of us. You guys, if you're big into crypto, you should check out their podcast. It's the Orange Pill podcast with Max and Stacey. We're just going to have you sit in the middle and your head's going to pop up. Did you do DMT? And then you're going to go back down and smoke DMT.
Starting point is 02:10:58 I wonder if Max has smoked DMT. I don't know, but I feel like he'd have a lot of really good opinions on it. Yeah. Even though he's a finance guy. It was funny seeing that video he posted of him in 1987. Like young Max Keiser talking about stocks and ragging on yuppies. I loved it. All right, let's see.
Starting point is 02:11:13 Let's see. Let's try and get some more of these. Quinton Cooling says, what do y'all think of Tom McDonald's new song and getting to the top of the chart? I listened to it today. I was surprised. I was like, those are some Really strong lyrics That were For a lot of people
Starting point is 02:11:27 The nail on the head So He's charting He's great Like actual billboard charts Or what I think that he has been I mean I know he's big
Starting point is 02:11:33 I don't think he has Does he even have a label Or a manager I don't think he has any of those Okay so I have Extreme respect for Tom McDonald Because he's doing All of this himself
Starting point is 02:11:41 Yeah Like him and his woman Are making this happen Which is truly amazing And he's very talented So I'll have to listen to that and he got like three million views in just like uh just a very short time and the music video i mean i mean it was i mean the lyrics were profound i think what i love one of the things i love about tom is his gratitude he just he's got the essence of gratitude to his fans i kind of dismissed him for a while i was
Starting point is 02:12:04 like yeah whatever he's just another like white rapper i'm like whatever i i there's enough white rappers but then i started listening i listened to the song today i was like whoa like this is powerful stuff so he's got a bunch of his songs are like it's yeah it's like talking cultural politics white white boy that's hot dude he pays attention to what's going on yeah so shouts out to him for doing that and being smart and having something conscious rather than the garbage nonsense that's promoted by the mainstream media and the main music industry that wants you to be you know sucking down cough syrup and some drugs so thank you for doing something different that's right and uh we want to get him get him on the show yes we will it may it may at some point
Starting point is 02:12:43 because we have uh talked to him a bit. And he's a cool dude. So, you know, we'll just... Early in the year, bad weather, you know, COVID. Everybody's got, you know, things that are kind of creating hurdles for, you know. So there's a lot of people we've actually had who will want to come on the show that would be really, really awesome. And then they're like, but maybe we should wait after winter. We just had the snowstorm.
Starting point is 02:13:02 We also have travel restrictions. So people are like, you know, things will kick up. There are some guests. I don't I don't like naming the people who we have coming on. But there's a lot of people we're trying to get, which will be amazing conversations. Like, I wish I could say I can't, though. But someone recently we I believe the PR company for one very, very high profile dude who was canceled reached out to us.
Starting point is 02:13:23 And I'm hoping this is a legit request because I would love to have this dude on, but I'm not going to say who. I contacted Nassim Harriman about the Schwarzschild proton unification theory. I was at Burning Man with him. He's great. If you know, if you can get in touch with him. We were at the same camp together. Let him know if you can somehow.
Starting point is 02:13:35 I did a video with him as well. Oh, I love him. Very interesting guy. He basically seems to have solved Einstein's field equation showing a unified field theory. I talked about that. Nassim Harriman, we are change. You'll see me in a very interesting outfit at Burning Man interviewing
Starting point is 02:13:47 him. We went to Burning Man. Oh my gosh. We were at the same camp. We were sleeping together in the same group that we were all together in. Oh, nice. Yeah, he spent his years working out of his van because the scientific community wouldn't take his work seriously because it basically upended a lot of accepted physics, but what he seems to have
Starting point is 02:14:04 unified the universe into one energy form. So we had one super chat. It was for $5 and said, here's for Ian's contribution to Ian's rehabilitation. Thank you, sir. And Chris Bell says, Ian, the things you say rip out pieces of my soul. Tim, how do you deal with it? Lydia, love your face.
Starting point is 02:14:22 Hit your button more so we can see that smile. Thanks, guy. I think I know how Tim deals with it. He puts me on his show. Yeah. Yeah, because I think for the most part, me and Ian agree. But when we have our disagreements, we voice those disagreements. We're like really kind of logical and straight edge.
Starting point is 02:14:38 But I play like a really wild character on this show intentionally because I think it's good to bring that crazy to the table i didn't realize you were playing a character ian well i'm just saying some of the most out there stuff because who else is gonna say it people need to hear this because they need to question themselves we're not playing or just really you i think it's like a hyper exacerbated version of me a hyper inflated version of myself he's putting up a barrier now like i just sit in silence if you really want to see the real me watch my twitch stream yep there you go yeah i remember tim and ian used to have these conversations at the table i was usually sitting like right between them so earlier today we talked about the ideal gas law and about writing a new there has to be at least
Starting point is 02:15:18 one screaming match in the house a day just we were disagreeing earlier when he was he was talking about ideal gas law and we were talking about laws versus theories. You were saying they don't change. I was saying they do change. Theories change. Laws are considered to be... I think scientific laws are there until we figure out how to improve or alter them. But neither of us really knew, so
Starting point is 02:15:38 we kind of just yelled a little bit and then moved on. I think theories are the ones that's like, we don't know for sure, but we've tested it and this is what we believe to be correct. And laws are like, that's true. Nassim, if you're listening, settle this. We'll just bring it to science. I can explain it.
Starting point is 02:15:51 Let's bring this team on. Yeah, you guys know him. Reach out. Mike Chilson says, one of my favorite quotes. The taxpayers are sending congressmen on expensive trips abroad. It might be worth it, except they keep coming back. That's a good one. All right, let's see.
Starting point is 02:16:07 Hank Bow Horseman says, Hey, Tim, as an aspiring studying musician, I'm a big fan of the idea of creating culture, but I'm afraid of the potential social ramifications of sharing music, especially with my uni. Any advice? Don't be afraid. Just do it. What are you going to do? Don't have any regrets in life.
Starting point is 02:16:22 When you're going to look back at just your life you're going to notice how fast it goes and how you should have taken a lot of those shots that you just denied yourself don't do that I take a lot of ridiculous shots we're just talking about Tom McDonald what do you mean there Lydia I'm quite respectful of it
Starting point is 02:16:37 Tom McDonald makes videos where he expresses his opinions his songs and he's huge people love this stuff there will be blowback but it will be worth it. Oh, dude. There's a ton of people who hate my guts. And probably for dumb reasons, probably for fake reasons, and many probably for legitimate reasons.
Starting point is 02:16:53 Jobs will be lost. Friends will be lost. But in the long run, it is totally worth it. Oh, yeah. Ryan says, you rule. That is all appreciated. Oh, thanks. DJ Madero says all
Starting point is 02:17:05 all the great things are simple and many can be expressed in a single word freedom justice honor mercy hope Winston Churchill great speech excellent Ed's world says what is quantum parse syntax grammar and why is it important I don't know Turk Longwell

Starting point is 02:17:57 through the earth i think that's what tesla was experimenting with or through the ocean like um so there are ways to ground the electricity and then have it come out i think interesting oh oh jonathan mcclee says would love to see charlie leduff the author of s show the country's collapsing and the ratings are great on your show uh we know charlie don't we luke charlie the duff from detroit uh is that jet charlie um doesn't ring i come on we we don't write this name down and see if i can come up Is that Charlie?

Starting point is 02:18:29 I'm more of a face person. Yeah, Charlie. Yeah, of course. We know Charlie. Can you see him? Yeah. You know Charlie. He did a bunch of really viral videos for local Detroit news.
Starting point is 02:18:43 Well, I'll refresh your memory. I can't remember. Yeah, I'll refresh your memory. I can't remember. Yeah, I'll look him up. He had a whole bunch of really viral videos where he was doing these amazing segments for Detroit local news. Okay, I think I know what you're talking about. And he exposed a lot of the government mismanagement
Starting point is 02:18:56 and stuff like that. Yeah, I think I know exactly. In really funny ways. Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like he showed up at someone's house in like a bathrobe or something. Someone that was cheating the system exposed them and the government
Starting point is 02:19:06 that was doing something else to the incompetent. Okay, now we know. It's been a while, though. AJ says, You think Ian's an average non-intellectual guy whose reactions rep the common man's ideas. Not so. He's high IQ.
Starting point is 02:19:19 His uber-creative weird takes totally derail otherwise great discussions. Get rid of him. Oh, I didn't realize. I thought that was actually a positive comment. I think it was an imaginary comment. No, that's just the square root of a negative number. Another old school great guy to have on would be Jimmy Justice.
Starting point is 02:19:38 Who's that? Amazing guy that was bringing street justice to parking meter maids in New York City and made very viral videos. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, he did more than that. It was incredible. Sukiyadreya says, I signed up on the website right away and have been enjoying the vids. I do small gaming streams as a hobby and love
