Starting point is 00:00:00 Man, Australia is like straight up Nazi country. And a lot of people are like, Tim, don't use that word. You're violating Godwin's law. No, I don't know. It's like getting there, right? Where the correlation between like what they're doing with like building camps and their cyber crime law they just passed where it allows the government to go into your device,
Starting point is 00:00:23 modify or delete or add just full control of your device. And I'm seeing a bunch of people be like, does that mean the government could go into your phone at any time and delete or plant evidence? Yeah. Yeah. What are you going to do about it? That's that's Australia. Man, seeing these, we have more reporting that like 135 people have been arrested protesting the lockdowns. And I'll tell you this, man. The government's going to use an emergency after emergency in every which way they can to gain more and more power. And you look at many of these countries, you look at like, well, the Commonwealth, for instance, the UK, Canada. It's really bad there.
Starting point is 00:00:58 It's kind of bad here. You know, we have bad places like New York is going full fascist. But there's something special about Australia in just how depraved and screwed up it is, where the rich people are on the beach frolicking about. They got no problems, nothing to worry about. And the poor people are like, yo, why can't I leave my house? Yeah, that's because you live in a country where...
Starting point is 00:01:15 Well, I'm going to say this, because the people need to stand up and protest. They need to speak up and speak out and say no to this stuff. Some of it works. Apparently, Australia is now going to get rid of their zero COVID policy, which made no sense. But we're going to get into all this stuff. And I got to tell you, the cybercrime thing is above and beyond insane. So joining us, we have a couple of awesome people. One person apparently from Australia.
Starting point is 00:01:38 Apparently. Are you from Sydney, Sydney? You know, if I was, I would actually give you permission to bully me. Then it would be okay but you're not from sydney no i'm from the communist republic of victoria oh okay which is the extra bad bit right now oh wow well it'll be interesting to talk to you about it so i don't know you guys want to introduce yourself we got elijah too he's chilling yeah you know it's funny you were like oh yeah no i'm not from sydney and you're like i'm actually from the worst part exactly it's like oh no i'm not from la what the heck i'm from san francisco it's like oh you're not not really helping yourself there but i know i have to like i have to lean into it a little bit because i'm like yeah look australia's pretty uh pretty jacked right now but i am from
Starting point is 00:02:14 the worst bit that's the badge of honor that i have i'm from the worst part well because because if the audience doesn't know my wife is australian i lived in and out of there for a couple years my family's all still stuck there. They are slaves. It went from prison colony to free to prison colony again. And apparently, at least for family, a lot of them are still in Queensland and stuff. So they still have a little bit of freedom. Queensland is the last state that hasn't gone totally off its rockers,
Starting point is 00:02:39 although they are building a concentration camp in Queensland still. And they're calling it beautiful and a step in the right direction and a way to bring in foreign nationals. Nothing says welcome to my country like locking you in a camp for two weeks. They're building a couple, aren't they? Like they got one in Brisbane. How do you pronounce it? Brisbane? Brisbane.
Starting point is 00:02:58 Brisbane. Brisbane. Brisbane. Also known as Brizzy. Brizzy. Nice. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just lie to him.
Starting point is 00:03:03 Be like, Brizzo. What a terrible country. You know what? It's not. It's terrible. No, hold on. Hold on. You don't get to say it.
Starting point is 00:03:11 You got spiders that'll kill you. Kangaroos. I saw a video of this kangaroo and it looked like the rock. Yeah, they're jacked. They're jacked. And it was like, I'm going to kill you. They have these creepy little hands, right? And they're sort of like little T-Rexes.
Starting point is 00:03:22 And they kind of do this. It's the creepiest thing you've ever seen like they have like a huge claw and they'll like gut you have you seen them fight have you seen yeah they put their heads back yeah because they because they're doing their creepy little like hand thing it's it's it's super creepy australia is a crazy when we were driving here elijah's going look at all these spider webs in the trees is this not this crazy thing and i'm like maybe i don't notice because I'm acclimated to the fact that there's so many spiders and insects and things that are ginormous that I
Starting point is 00:03:50 don't even notice anymore. If this world is some kind of MMORPG, Australia is like the final continent. Level 50 continent. Yeah, it's like top levels. Like all the monsters are super big and the spiders are as big as your face. But they're used to it. And here's the crazy thing is they act like it's normal.
Starting point is 00:04:09 This is why you guys are crazy this is why you guys accepted the lockdowns i swear because i went to this beautiful bay okay we don't have this kind of stuff in america where you can go out maybe 60 70 80 feet and it's only two to three feet of water in the ocean it's white sand beaches and i'm like ready to go in the water and my wife's just like hold up for a second make sure that you just realize that there are kind of shocking eels here. And also just a small note. If you see a beautiful shell, don't pick it up because there's these spike things and the Chinese people always pick them up and then they stab you
Starting point is 00:04:34 and then you die. So just be alert for your feet when you're walking. I said, oh, a little tidbit. You might die. Enjoy your vacation. Yeah. I mean, don't go in the ocean. There's irigangi. There are these tiny little jellyfish. And if you get stung by one, you're probably going to, you know, your system will shut down. You won't be able to breathe.
Starting point is 00:04:51 You'll die. But it's beautiful. Dude, that's legit. That's legit. The high level area. Why Australia? Why? Why?
Starting point is 00:04:57 It's like that article that said when the guy died from COVID and it was like, it could have been worse. Right? It's like, it's like, you look at this and you go, it's beautiful and it's basically a beautiful death sentence. You go there and if you don't die from the government lockdown, you walk outside and you're like, fresh air! And the fresh air kills you.
Starting point is 00:05:14 It reminds me of Northrend in World of Warcraft. Around the time when Wrath of the Lich King came out, for those that are familiar with the video games. It's just this continent of undead demons and the Lich king and then you have zombies and just like so you've got the government which is like man it's just the we could make a video game in australia would be an excellent final level british put the monsters there when they put the prisoners there to like
Starting point is 00:05:39 guard them and challenge them that would be anyway we should get to the intro yeah yeah ian is sitting here. Ian Crosland. What up? And Lydia is sitting here. I'm also in the corner laughing at these stories. I'm really glad that Sydney survived her childhood in Australia to join us. Yes, this is true.
Starting point is 00:05:55 I'm pretty impressed. I only had to fight one kangaroo and it was totally fine. Did you really fight a kangaroo? No. Did you want? I like that that's mildly believable, though. It is? It is.
Starting point is 00:06:04 I saw a video of a guy punch a kangaroo because he was i like i like though that's mildly believable though it is i saw a video of a guy punch a kangaroo because he was trying to get his dog yeah i'm pretty sure he was actually um arrested after that or he'd been fined for something for like hurting for hurting wildlife or something but you know kangaroos look like you can hit them in the road people die all the time it's crazy when you're driving so there's a lot of warnings of kangaroo crossings but it's not like here with deer where people still die here. Apparently, it's very common. That's why the Utes, their trucks, they all have these grills in front of them because kangaroos just jump outside of your car. I saw a video of a party and a kangaroo just wanders in and everyone's just standing there frozen as the kangaroo bounces around the party.
Starting point is 00:06:40 And it's massive because they look like The Rock. They're super big. Joe Rogan's head. It's just like big, beefy thing. We'll get to talking about Australia, I suppose. Before we get started, go to TimCast.com, become a member, and you'll get access to exclusive members-only segments of the TimCast RL Podcast.

Starting point is 00:06:58 after the show for all of our members, and you'll get an ad-free experience on our fierce and independent journalists. Boy, are they mad at us. They wrote a smear uh one one outlet wrote a smear about us because we covered a truck crash with the moderna vaccine in it that the dod was in control i'm like i thought that was newsworthy and they're like you're a conspiracy theorist for telling people that a truck crash that's all we said and people got mad i'm like yo you guys read too much into stuff so if you like that kind of stuff go to timcastCast.com, become a member.
Starting point is 00:07:26 And don't forget to like this video, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends, all the stuff that, you know, YouTube probably doesn't even matter anyway, but do it anyway. Smash the like button for Ian. For Ian. Thanks, everyone. For Kroger, Jesus Christ. Honestly. Let's talk about the spying bill.
Starting point is 00:07:43 So as many of you may be aware there's been a lot of a lot of news lately about australia there have been protests over the lockdowns the lockdowns are the most draconian thing we've ever seen meanwhile you know like chris hemsworth is surfing on the beach and he's have a smile on his face and even though the beach is under a strict lockdown you're not allowed to leave your house but the rich people seem to be okay but everybody else is kind of complaining as to why they're locked down. People are protesting. Hundreds of people are getting arrested. And now we have this on top of it. Australian powers to spy on cybercrime suspects given green light.
Starting point is 00:08:14 I love how they say cybercrime suspects. Coalition bill to create powerful new warrants allowing authorities to modify and delete data and even take over accounts passes the senate that is amazing they say the identify and disrupt bill passed the senate on wednesday despite concerns about the low bar of who can authorize a warrant and the government failed to implement all the safeguards recommended by the bipartisan joint committee on intelligence and security and apparently it was like just like sped through parliament or whatever is that how it works you guys have parliament and then they just like rubber stamped it so imagine this you are talking to your friends about hey you know
Starting point is 00:08:53 like i think this lockdown stuff's pretty bad and then all of a sudden you get a knock on the door and they're like we have copied all of your phones photos and video and everything we own it and uh we found ourselves a crime because come on there's like i'm sure it's similar in australia like it is here there's just so many laws in the books you're always breaking crime you're always breaking laws isn't there a book about this yeah we had someone talking about like yeah at like four crimes a day or something yeah four crimes a day people are committing yeah and not only that but if they have access to your phones your communications and all that stuff there could be a joke and they'll be like nope that's serious you could jokingly say something like oh you know i
Starting point is 00:09:30 would do x y or z you know and they'll there was like one story we saw of a guy who was posting memes or something in a discord server and then the cops came and arrested him because it was public so anyway let's just talk about you know know, Australia is a country of monsters and dragons and mythical beasts that always want to kill you. Most of the country is a barren wasteland of death. Yes, also true. And there was a story about a woman whose Apple Maps told her to take a wrong turn, and then she drove like 500 miles into the outback,
Starting point is 00:09:59 and then the car broke down and she was stranded. Because just like the country is, it's like a death pit full of monsters and the safe the places that were safe the cities have now been overrun by like full-on fascism that they're going to arrest you lock you in your home there's a video of like a woman walking on the street and the cop starts beating her because she wasn't wearing a mask even though she had a medical exemption yeah he dragged her to the ground they dragged her to the ground yeah that's it so let's let's just start by asking, I'll ask you, Sydney,
Starting point is 00:10:26 what the hell is wrong with you people? I've been asking that about her for a long time. Honestly, it's funny because people always ask me, why did you leave Australia? And this is sort of why. Like on an unironic note,
Starting point is 00:10:39 and I don't want to shit on Australians too much. Sorry, I've already ruined your day. I'm sorry. All right. I don't want to shit on Australians too much. Sorry, I've already ruined your answer, I think. I'm sorry, all right. I don't want to rag on Australians too much because I do love Aussies, but dead set, I got to a point where I was like,
Starting point is 00:10:52 this is a bloody prison. This is actually a prison and I want out. It's always been. I know, but I didn't realize it until I was like, oh God, I'm like the only, well, I feel like I'm the only person living in the, you know, Communist Republic of Victoria
Starting point is 00:11:03 that actually gives a damn about freedom and doesn't want to live in abject government overrun horribleness for the rest of my days. So I was like, let's go to America. I know. That was like, you were begging for freedom. I was, yeah. I want to turn a thousand. And single too, by the way.
Starting point is 00:11:19 She's still not married. I'm trying. I'm trying so hard. I'm just saying, she's not married. I'm trying to help. Any guy that wants to show her a life of freedom. I'm trying so hard. I'm just saying, she's not married. Any guy that wants to show her a life of freedom. Lydia's trying to help. She has the dream of living on a ranch. I do. With horses. I want some
Starting point is 00:11:31 cows. Oh, God. Cows are so cute. They'll cuddle you. Did you hear that? They'll put your finger in their mouth and they'll suck on it. That is so weird. Apparently it feels good. I've never done it. Someone told me that. I'm a vessel of knowledge. How does that come into conversation?
Starting point is 00:11:47 I like cows too, basically is what I'm saying. Yeah, we know. We know. Is it just fingers? Is it just fingers? Of course. Okay. All right.
Starting point is 00:11:54 All right. I was just asking. No, but you know, it's funny because Kez, you know, I guess, they don't know that's my wife, but Kez actually said the same thing. People are like, how did she just leave? She didn't say anything about cows. She was like, how did she just leave? She didn't say anything about cows. Stick your finger in a cow's mouth. She was like, well, wow.
Starting point is 00:12:09 That's when I started calling instead of the storks brought the baby. I was like, oh, you know how our babies made you stick your finger in a cow's mouth. And then it all just fell out. And it sucks on your finger. Ian, you're on the internet too much. Everything I said was true. I'm like lively because it's too much over there. No, but she was like – people go, why was she willing to move over here so quickly?
Starting point is 00:12:29 Because a lot of people are in two camps in Australia that people don't understand. I would say the majority of people are very subservient, that they trust the government, that they think the government is on their side. If you deny and you fight against the government, to put into perspective, we did a podcast together. And some people that I know over there were saying that we sounded communist because we were questioning the government. And we are very far away from communists. Go to Vosh or something if you want to watch communism. Don't go to Slightly Offensive or Sidney Watts and our shows. But the point is, is that there's this camp of people, I would say it's about one third or less, that are just like, we are so sincerely effed and I'm going to probably
Starting point is 00:13:03 need to get out of here. i don't know how we meet australians all around america they've got the green card lottery that wanted to get out because people are so cucked out and subjugated to this crown and to the authority they can't think for themselves and they look at the people who are against the government as being like bad behaved citizens yeah like they're they're bad people morally there was a there was a manhunt for a guy because he was coughing in the elevator well because he had covid because he because he left lockdown because well but he apparently he was told so there's this guy he was told to go quarantine at a hotel and so there's video of
Starting point is 00:13:36 him leaving his apartment and they're like look at him in the in the elevator sneezing like what that's a weird thing but apparently they found him in a hotel quarantining right and they're like you're under arrest mate and then they drag him out and people are cheering didn't he get like eight months in prison or something like no no that was that was the protester i know i'm quite i'm well perhaps i'm wrong someone should double check me on this but i i think they might have um arrested him and done like i'm pretty sure they arrested him like he's a terrorist they put him in like in garbs and masks and gloves and carried like dragged physically dragged him out none of this is new i i can't stress this enough to americans none of this is new it's not like
Starting point is 00:14:12 this is something that someone just pulled from the sky you know the politicians suddenly were like oh you know what let's become draconian no this is this is honestly part of my frustration with australia always always has been this is why i left because australians in a lot of ways and i think i've said this probably on this show before and i know i've certainly said on your show but aussies in a lot of ways i'm not saying all aussies but a portion of them view security as much more important than freedom so when you have that as the primary mentality and the primary prevailing attitude of most of your population or at least a large portion of the population then of course what we're seeing at the moment is a byproduct of that. And people just roll over because they go, oh, you know, if we follow the law, daddy, government will give me my rights
Starting point is 00:14:53 back. Honey, when was the last time the government did anything for you? I think it was Dave Smith, who said there's nothing more permanent than a temporary government program. Seriously, honestly, maybe he was quoting. I forget who was, he was quoting. He said that on this show. Yeah. Anthony Karam has not been sentenced. He was just charged, but he was denied bail and he's been charged
Starting point is 00:15:11 with 13 offenses. They called him public health enemy number one. That's ridiculous. Allegedly went on the run. I love how in the news report they've got like five cops and they're like in SWAT gear
Starting point is 00:15:23 and they've got a bunch of doctors in full like pandemic panic garb. And then they're like we're like in SWAT gear and they've got a bunch of doctors in full like pandemic panic garb and then they're like he was you know he was refusing quarantine though he was found in the hotel where the authorities had told him he should quarantine and I'm like the crazy thing about the story is for all I know they got video of the guy leaving his house to go to the hotel like he was told and then they were like oh but why is he why is he sneezing in public? Arrest him. Did you guys watch the,
Starting point is 00:15:46 I'm sure some of you saw. Public health enemy number one. Yeah, it's been. That should be merch. Australians are so hyperbolic like that. Like, I don't know if you guys saw, there was a news report about him, and it was like you were talking about,
Starting point is 00:15:57 the Australian commentator was like, this is, whatever his name is, Adam steps into the, it was all so dramatic, and I'm going, the dude has the sniffles. What is happening right now? the, it was all so dramatic and I'm going, the dude has the sniffles. What is,
Starting point is 00:16:05 what are we, what is happening right now? Well, to be fair, sneezing and coughing without covering your mouth in an elevator, kind of a dick move. Yeah, a little bit. Not worthy of a manhunt.
Starting point is 00:16:13 Was anybody else in the elevator with him? No, but still, come on. Yeah, increasing viral load. Was he spitting on the window? I don't, he was being nasty.
Starting point is 00:16:22 Yeah. He was being nasty, but I will say this, go to any major metropolitan area in the United States, and it's quite a similar experience. In fact, I think you just fit in. But in Australia, people are very prim. They are very proper. In a lot of the major cities, it's very clean.
Starting point is 00:16:35 Compared to U.S. cities, Australians are very clean. They're very orderly. Yes. And what I want to point out that people don't know is that Australians are also like super based with their immigration policies and have actually take everything very seriously. They could be a threat to their culture, to their ethnic, their monoculture, to any of these things. They see these as huge threats. So it makes sense that you could also take another enemy that could threaten you. And they have that island mentality where it's like, well, we can keep COVID away completely because we're on an island.
Starting point is 00:17:07 And so they've taken it to an extremity to where people thought, and I think this is crazy, but they thought that they could essentially remain isolated from the world and never have a COVID death in their country ever as if respiratory illness. That's what New Zealand did too. Yeah. Would never ever find their way in. You know,
Starting point is 00:17:23 it's funny. I posted, I posted on Twitter, something to the effect of, you know, I didn't really ever expect to be at a point where we would have these quarantine camps, and yet here we are. And someone responded, and I have to give them props for this. They responded and said, Sydney, you literally take your asylum seekers and send them to an offshore processing detention center.
Starting point is 00:17:41 And I thought to myself, yeah, one that I've actually defended in the past. In Australia? Yeah, yeah. So what we do is because we call them boat people just you know based yeah that's awesome and the boat and the boat people come to the borders and obviously the australian police or whoever deals with it you know border protection goes nope and sends them to christmas island conveniently named christmas island not so nothing to do with Christmas. And there they stay. Maybe indefinitely. I'm not sure. So putting your own citizens... They ship them back. A lot of times they ship them back.
Starting point is 00:18:11 But I mean, it does take a long time and these people obviously burn down the facilities and break things and molest and rape each other. The signs on the beaches are like, if you see their immigration signs, it's something out of what would be considered here extreme right wing, which is basically just means being epic um where it basically just has like a warship like almost like tipping a boat of people and it's like don't come here don't come here you're gonna get
Starting point is 00:18:36 tipped like that's basically what it says it's it's so extreme like you might die if you try to come here we have a deal with um papua new guinea and it's basically like, hey, we'll send you all the asylum seekers. We just don't want to deal with them. But I guess the thing is, right, those are not citizens of Australia. Here, take them. These are not citizens, though. So, I mean, it sounds heartless, and I don't want to get into the immigration debate necessarily, but it sounds heartless to just be like, yeah, okay. But you can't do this crap to your own citizens.
Starting point is 00:19:02 These are people that live, work, you know, contribute to your economy, pay taxes, etc. The crown can't abuse their own citizens? Have you not seen the history of the crown? Have you seen England's citizens? Yeah, I know. It's bad. Yeah, I want to highlight the crown's interactivity. You love this, don't you?
Starting point is 00:19:18 I do because people are like, Ian, you moron. The queen has no power. It's all ceremonial. I'm here to back you up. Royal assent is a thing. If the queen doesn't want to approve anything that's ever done, she can say, I'm not giving royal assent. Well, so with our legislation, and this is not widely known, I don't think outside of even Australia.
Starting point is 00:19:37 And Australia is probably not widely known. The queen does sign off on all of our legislation called royal assent. I'm not sure if it applies anywhere else, but it certainly applies to our legislation. She removed the prime minister, right? Back in the 60s. In a rare case, yeah. Yeah, back in the 60s. Wait, she did?
Starting point is 00:19:50 Yeah, she did. She fired the, so Gough Whitlam was the, not the president, God, I've been in this country for too long, was the prime minister, and she fired him and fired the government. So you're not wrong. Nope.
Starting point is 00:20:01 It's terrifying. She can do that now. Think of yourself as a better man. Well, even, so her, any of the people that represent the queen in Australia can actually act on behalf of the queen. They can fire governments. They can, again, they can turn down legislation. They have a certain grace period where they can do all this stuff. I don't know if they have any hand in repealing legislation.
Starting point is 00:20:20 I'm not sure about that. But they certainly do have. The queen makes decisions. She could theoretically make decisions. It's not just a symbolic thing she can actually do it yes but it is symbolic for right now she never does like anything that happens in that country is because the queen wants it to happen that way sure theoretically yeah you know it's really cool when like we were all like hey oh king suck it. And then he was like, ooh, America!
Starting point is 00:20:47 And the French were like, we will sacrifice our government to allow you to screw the... That's true, yeah. They sacrificed their monarchy. Dude. I mean, I didn't know that was going to happen. When you describe it that way,
Starting point is 00:20:57 it's so rough. This is kind of weird, but I was talking to Beck, good old Glenn Beck, pretty deeply about this stuff. And kind of what he was telling me, though, is unfortunately, when we talk a lot about people are like, it's going to be a revolution.
Starting point is 00:21:08 We got to we got to fight back. You know, I mean, I was at the Capitol today and I ran into an officer who I saw on January 6th and we were talking about it. And I'm not going to get into much details, but, you know, he got pretty injured. There's a lot going on. And he just kind of was like, hey, I've actually been wanting to talk to you. And I don't know how we ended up running into you on the streets here in D.C. again. And we were talking about it. I was just saying, yeah, like this is a confusing time in our country because we it's hard to make sense of things, of what's going on and what our future
Starting point is 00:21:37 holds. And Beck kind of told me, I asked him the same question. Hey, what does the future hold for America? What does the future hold for Australia? What does it hold for people who are saying, I'm sick of this present tense version of chat, but like, I'm sick of this. You can seen in the past because simply put, every one of those revolutions, including the Civil War, the only reason the tides turned is because a foreign government that had interest ended up investing money into a group that ended up winning. For instance, in the Civil War, there was great interest the French had in seeing the British Empire decline. And so that's why they funded us so heavily, because anybody that could weaken the grip of the British Empire opened up trade for them. And also even – he said even in the Civil War, which I didn't know, the money was pretty unilateral from European countries between the north and the south because they were really afraid that if the south ended up winning, that they would end up being tariffs and problems with trading with cotton and different trade deals. So they kind of sent money to both sides. And it wasn't until, I forget which battle it was, but there was a turn in the battle that they took their money out of the South and gave it to the North, which ended up giving them the upper hand to win. And so if you look at even
Starting point is 00:22:51 American history, the fight against tyranny or the union trying to win back the country or whatever people think always involved foreign money. And now with this global economy, this global interest, right after Wilson sold us out to the Federal Reserve, and you have this global banking system where companies are against American traditional values. There's no corporation or country or banking group that's going to just come in and fund, let's say, a revolution in Australia to fight back. It would be a guerrilla fight, probably more like the Taliban. But even the Taliban has – some people say it's funded by Pakistan. Some people say it's funded by Iran.
Starting point is 00:23:24 There's a country that's going to fund a revolution in America. Who? China for the left. Yeah, true. Yeah. They're going to – they'll invest in tons of these programs. They'll place spies all over the country, and they'll start putting out woke propaganda, which they're doing, which destabilizes the country. It sounds like what's already happening.
Starting point is 00:23:42 Yeah. No, no, no. I'm talking about what they're literally doing. I'm not predicting anything. China would do the same thing in Australia. I mean... They probably are. But they probably...
Starting point is 00:23:50 Well, that's exactly it. So Daniel Andrews, actually, the premier of Victoria, because we don't have governors, we have premiers. He, at one point... Well, actually, I believe he's taken CCP money. But at one point,
Starting point is 00:24:01 you should find the clip if you guys are interested. There's a clip of basically um a victorian police station i believe playing some like communist anthem chinese communist anthem or something rather than the australian national anthem or perhaps it or maybe maybe i'm getting my wires crossed and they're flying the chinese flag i can't remember but the point is that they have so many little creepy ties to the ccp that it's like oh that's why everyone's in freaking perpetual lockdown beautiful to go back to the CCP that it's like, oh, that's why everyone's in freaking perpetual lockdown.
Starting point is 00:24:26 Beautiful. To go back to what you said, there's a different reason I think you're not going to see a revolution like any of these past civil wars or revolutions, and it's that we're in a new generation of warfare. Why should anyone need kinetic warfare when you can simply post a series of tweets and convince someone of something and then they'll be on your side? Is that why they say communism was never tried correctly? Someone told me that that meant that they were always using initial violence to purge rather than social pressure for allegiance.
Starting point is 00:24:50 And that the way that they're kind of using this is to bring people into state control before they have to do an eventual purge. Imagine if I said to you, no one's ever tasted unicorn. No person has ever really tasted true unicorn. You'd be like, unicorns don't exist. Hey, you're starting to get it. There is no real communism. This idea of this,
Starting point is 00:25:08 like everyone owns everything utopia makes literally no sense. It's just like saying unicorn. So when they say real communism never been tried, you're like, yeah, no one's ever ridden a unicorn. I get it.
Starting point is 00:25:18 If you're not going to, it's never going to happen. And the only way to do it is to take some kind of fake horn and jam it onto the face of a horse and bolt it down or something. And the horse is all screaming. And you're like, it's a unicorn, I swear.
Starting point is 00:25:29 That's basically what they've been doing. Alex Jones there? Sticking fingers in cows' mouths, boating stuff. The horse is gone. There was a tweet. You would laugh at this because I always think of like your little face where you're just like that weird face. My little face. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:42 That's a good face. Somebody wrote – it was like a meme and somebody wrote they were like yeah i can't wait till communism um is you know finally comes in because i'm i can't wait to figure out what i'm gonna do with my farm and then it just kept zooming in on my and then it was like my farm somebody somebody was like oh somebody tweeted what are you gonna do once communism is finally achieved? Yes. And then someone responded, probably take some new classes, hang out in the town, teach people how to grow vegetables on my farm, spend some time with the family. And then someone responded with your farm.
Starting point is 00:26:14 Yeah. Yeah. It's like these people don't understand just to see that response from someone about what they're going to get to do in communism. It's like, yo, you think funny back to that. Just just just look at what the North Koreans are allowed to do. All right? That's what you'll be allowed to do.
Starting point is 00:26:28 Starve to death. Yeah. You have at least three options of haircuts. Yeah. At least they can get haircuts in North Korea because in a lot of cities in the United States, we weren't allowed to get those. That's crazy because you would hear that two years ago.
Starting point is 00:26:38 Because Lydia, I know this too because you're like pretty like free-spirited person. And so you would go to a point where you would hear, oh, they're like litigating what kind of haircut you can get meaning you can be prosecuted or fined for going against a haircut that's crazy to live in a society where they would the law would get into getting haircuts and then all of a sudden i remember i had to literally do a drug deal basically in in uh california by like paying a guy cash going in through this back door to get my haircut and it
Starting point is 00:27:02 was it was like the windows were covered and i was like i thought it was like a human trafficking situation and it was just so i can get scissors to you know trim my hair and i'm going we went quickly from that seeming dystopian to that is they have more freedom with their hair than we do oh yeah honestly just just to this thing about this just made me laugh because jack i just want to say this because it actually made me laugh and i think other people will find it funny too. Jack Posobiec responded to that thing you're talking about, and he posted this picture that said, oh, you thought communism would support you
Starting point is 00:27:31 so you could write bad poetry and SoundCloud rap all day instead of laboring in the fields? Ha ha, please face the wall. Oh, yeah. What I like to say to people, I usually say this when I'm talking about UBI, but it applies here too. How many people do you guys know play guitar?
Starting point is 00:27:48 A couple. A handful. A handful. Yes. And how many of them are really bad at it? A handful. A handful of them. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:55 I feel attacked. And will those people be like, if they had the option not to work, they'd be like, I'm going to be a musician. Yeah, well, probably. Yeah. So how many bad guitarists. Yeah, well, probably. Yeah. So how many bad guitarists do we need? Not none. Yes. So there's two problems here.
Starting point is 00:28:12 One, we already have too many people who want to make careers out of nonproductive fields. Though I love the arts and think people should try to make art. There is an issue where in our society over the past several decades or generations, they've been like, instead of inventing things, why don't you try and be a famous singer? Because I guess people make a lot of money doing that. So we prioritize that. Now we have a lack of tradespeople and we need people to fix our toilets and build our houses. And there's very few people to do it.
Starting point is 00:28:35 And there's very few truckers. But I'll tell you this. These people who want communism, many of them are these bad guitar players who are like, I hate working at Starbucks. If we were communists, I'd play guitar all day. It's like, dude, you'd be breaking rocks all day. Yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:28:47 You'd think they're going to, no, they're going to be like, to each according to his needs, or what is it, from each according to their means to each according to their needs. Stuff like that. Yeah, bro,
Starting point is 00:28:55 you don't have very much means or needs. Why would they give you anything or let you do anything? Your means are, you got arms and a rock needs to break. We're not going to ask you
Starting point is 00:29:04 to solve any equations here, buddy. Into you go you know what's funny though is speaking of like people actually being yeah it is it's sad please face the wall um it's in it you know it's kind of weird because as much as we're going to probably um rage against australia raging against the machine in australia in this episode what's what's kind of funny is australia has actually got down pat quite well, that whole making people useful thing, because tradesmen, or we call them tradies in Australia, there's tons of them.
Starting point is 00:29:31 Because people don't waste their time trying to be bad musicians. It's a very American-esque thing, in my opinion. Because there's a lot of entitlement in this country. Much as I love living here and much as I love Americans, there's so many great qualities of Americans, there's a butt-ton of entitlement that I find exceedingly irritating that Aussies simply don't have. Aussies are much more humble,
Starting point is 00:29:48 much more willing to take criticism in some capacity than Americans would be. And there are these things where, again, when we talk about these communist ideals and things, that's why, like Elijah was saying before, Aussies are actually quite resistant to it. It's more the fact that they trust the government too much, which is why it plays out the way that it does,
Starting point is 00:30:04 whereas Americans, weirdly enough, I think that there's probably a bigger proportion of them that are like, oh, communism could work because then I can play my guitar all day. And they swore I'd get into them. I'm sorry. It nearly came out of my mouth. I stopped it. No, no, no. I stopped it. You caught it?
Starting point is 00:30:16 I stopped it. After the show ends, she's going to start screaming all the profanities. She couldn't get out. She's shaking. She's shaking. This is what she does. She's a woman sabotage. They subvert.
Starting point is 00:30:25 It's shaking. She's shaking. This is what she does. She's a women's sabotage. They subvert. But also. It's true. We have to inform TikTok that it's not true and it's a joke. Yeah, TikTok actually took down one of our videos. Really?
Starting point is 00:30:33 Yeah, for a joke like this. Wow. We won't put it on TikTok. I'm kidding. She'd be happier at home, but this is what she does. It's all okay. But on a reality, though,
Starting point is 00:30:42 this is where people don't understand with Australia and being orderly. Someone could call me racist for saying this. It's just called living in Los Angeles. And the reality is one of the things that struck me as the most odd, it wasn't the spiders and it wasn't the little death creatures that kill you on vacation in the water. It was.
Starting point is 00:30:56 I remember seeing how and this is going to offend some people, but understand where I'm coming from here, that being a tradie wasn't seen as being blue collar is in America. Meaning when you're going down the 405 or the 605 freeway or something in California, there's a very distinct look for the majority of people working for Caltrans or on the streets of most of them are Hispanic. A lot of them are overweight, unhealthy. It's always a joke, right? That how many people does it take to dig a hole
Starting point is 00:31:26 in California on the road? One to hold the shovel, a bunch to stand and look in the hole. Nine to watch and one to dig. Because that's just what it is. It's this inefficient, expensive mess of people who, not all people are, but just this government waste project. I was shocked. And they're usually late 30s, mid 30s, late 30s.
Starting point is 00:31:42 When I went to Australia, it is these, when I went to Australia, it is these young men, 1920, cut, chad-looking, jaw dudes who are just masculine. Aussie tradies. Dressed pretty well. Not gross. Good haircuts. What we would think of being like a Navy SEAL or something. This is what it looked like.
Starting point is 00:32:02 And they're just efficient. They're moving. I saw a project get done like one week on the street and i i remember like going in even into the state-sponsored you know alcohol whatever whatever those things are those like big stores where you can only get alcohol at uh because you can't get in the supermarket the bottle shop yeah but the big ones what's that one the bottle oh the bottle shop oh you're totally like dan murphy but like the line there was like a line of people that were all dressed like tradies, buying their beer, getting ready for the night. Like you could tell they had this regimented lifestyle.
Starting point is 00:32:28 And I remember talking to my wife and she was like, yeah, like being tradie is not looked down upon. You're like, oh, you didn't go to college. You became a tradie, which is actually a detriment to our country because that's the point is that we've created a system of where college matters. I think you just made a tweet about this. About what? That, you know, that why would you want to abuse your kids? Imagine hating your kids so much you send them to college.
Starting point is 00:32:48 Yeah, but that's my point. But they're being traded. The civilization isn't set in its tears. Like that kind of work is still seen as like you're building the country. You are building the framework and a good job there is good for the nation. The nations are very united in that way.
Starting point is 00:33:01 And so it makes sense that they would fight against COVID like this. There's a bunch of tall, ripped, chiseled white men who are building the country and want absolute government control and spying on all of your stuff. It's weird, isn't it? It sounds like a bunch of Nazis to me. It's really, really, really odd because on an unironic note. Look at Chris Hemsworth. A lot of people don't realize this.
Starting point is 00:33:22 You're jealous, Tim. You're jealous. It's the Asian in you. You'll never be a full realize this. You're jealous, Tim. You're jealous. It's the Asian in you. You'll never be a full Aryan. Oh, wow. Okay. Jeez, dude. That took a weird turn.
Starting point is 00:33:30 I know. I'm joking. When you go there, I even feel like I feel not white because they're like, even the girls said, everyone there is tall and good looking. And I go there, I'm this ugly little pudgy, freckly freak. And I sit there, I'm like, like gosh i got the irish jeans like those are not that good i do say this all the time that i think australian men are objectively the best well i think australians are as a general rule very very so like in australia
Starting point is 00:33:52 chris hemsworth is ugly no he's just standard he's like he's like below he's below average they export him out to the u.s like they'll like him now you know what she thinks about us standard like what does that make of us? That's sad. I look at some of the boyfriends that I had in Australia. And contrary to popular belief, I'm not. And Elijah can back this up. And I think you can back this up now too, Lyd.
Starting point is 00:34:16 Basically, I'm not a shallow woman. I like brains. I want you to be smart. You're not like other girls. I'm not like other girls. I'm quirky, okay? But I like smart people. I want to be challenged. I want someone interesting who can talk to me about. We picture of uh one of sydney's ex-boyfriends
Starting point is 00:34:28 right here do we it's a chris hemsworth yeah it's that mean guy you know the black and white photo of the guy who's like chin is like oh my goodness i'm just kidding it's not a real i do love i do love a good chin no but on a serious note like i look i think back to some of these boyfriends i'm like oh my god they're actually like very handsome people like unironically just like normally handsome people because aussies are attractive i don't know i don't know other people back me up here i think aussies are hot sounds like they're inbred is it true to a point if they're not allowing the boat people in what is happening part of why we're so beautiful as humans is it true that tradesmen are super hot too. Like tradies are so hot
Starting point is 00:35:05 and they wear these like little... They wear their little short shorts, which I love. Oh my gosh. And they wear their little boots, which look really cute with their little like, you know, high-vis stuff.
Starting point is 00:35:13 And I'm like, oh God. The temperature is rising in here. You know what? I've been single a long time, guys. It sounds like Australia is missing a storyteller, a people that want to be storytellers and the America is overrun with people that want to be storytellers, and America is overrun with people
Starting point is 00:35:27 that want to be storytellers. We don't want your storytellers, so you can keep them. Right. It's an important role in society, a job even, you could say, as an actor. They're highly paid musicians,
Starting point is 00:35:36 just the shaman that would tell the tribe. But we don't need 100 million storytellers. You just need really good ones at the top, and it's such a small group of people want it. It's like this exclusive group that people all want to top, and it's such a small group of people want it.
Starting point is 00:35:46 It's like this exclusive group that people all want to do, and so they're sitting around lazily waiting to get their chance or to get their viral video. Now they get to be the switch. No, Ian, I think you fundamentally don't understand industry in the United States. The overwhelming majority of movies and music are small businesses. I don't know. You said you were an actor before, but I don't understand how you're not aware of the fact that most films are small films no one ever sees because they'll get like 1,000 viewers. I know tons of people in Chicago who would do short films, and it would be at a small theater in Chicago to 1,000 people over a weekend, and that was the end of the film. And those are jobs people are getting paid hundreds of dollars to do and they would have budgets of like $5,000 to $10,000
Starting point is 00:36:28 and they would film for a day or two. Right, because if someone wanted to be a storyteller, they would just start telling stories on the internet. They would make a short film, a low-budget film. Instead, people maybe they want the fame. They want to be the storyteller. They want everyone to listen. But a lot of those people don't make it.
Starting point is 00:36:43 Because if you tell a story to a dark closet, what's the point of the story really? A lot of those people won't make it because they're chasing the storyteller. They want everyone to listen. But a lot of those people don't make it. Because if you tell a story to a dark closet, what's the point of the story really? A lot of those people won't make it because they're chasing the wrong thing. What makes you famous is your passion for what you're doing. And I'll give you an example. I was once doing this voter registration thing at a Death Cab for Cutie concert. And they're like this indie band. I don't really know what they've been doing this past decade or whatever.
Starting point is 00:37:08 But I saw the band hanging out backstage and I asked them, him i was like do you have any advice for making it music and uh the guitarist said just keep playing music because one of the things that happens is everyone around you just quits they eventually give up they quit they stop playing and then eventually you look around and realize you're the only one left and you've got this big back catalog of all the music you've produced and a lot of people are familiar with it now because you know everyone else is gone and i was like oh wow i'm paraphrasing because it was the gist of the conversation and it's like if you stay true to what you believe in and you're playing music and you're doing what you love eventually you're getting better at it every day you're producing a lot of it more and more people start to see it and the people who
Starting point is 00:37:40 don't really want it are like i just want to be famous and they start quitting and then eventually it's like five ten years later and people are like, I just want to be famous, and they start quitting. And then eventually it's like five, ten years later, and people are like, oh, yeah, I've seen that band before. They're really good, and they're sharing your stuff every single day. Someone's playing your song. Someone's hearing it. So that's true for, like, most things. You know, it's funny, though,
Starting point is 00:37:56 because I think that that actually applies to the job that, I guess, we all do in a sense, because I feel like there's a lot of people out there who look at this and think, I could do that. And really, I mean, anybody're you know if you're well spoken if you're well read if you will take the time to look into politics and that sort of fun stuff and i think what bothers me a little bit and sorry to derail this but you just i just think this is a you know decent caveat to what you're saying um there's a lot of people who get into it wanting
Starting point is 00:38:20 to be famous which i think i think that's the worst reason to start doing political commentary to be completely frank with you because it's not easy you really have to be on top of it and all credit to you actually tim and i'm not blowing smoke up your butt but you're on top of this stuff it's like you you like live and breathe and and just like you're like a little swamp creature that's surrounded by all your news articles you know like yeah i have like a nest of like newspapers that i gather and you. She says Hemsworth is standard normal and she called you a swamp creature. Wow. Wow.
Starting point is 00:38:48 Your audience is going to be like, never bring this girl back ever again. Put her in the bin. No, but seriously. Put her in the bin. It does bother me, though, how people are like, oh, I want to be famous. I want to be a political commentator. And it's like, well, take a run, like a red hot crack at it. Take a run at it.
Starting point is 00:39:01 Fine. I don't know about that. Well, they do. I know plenty of people who try. That's like the stupidest idea you know that's what i think too it's it's not easy you get a lot of hate mail i think everyone's the dumbest idea but then this is what wanting to be a political commentator to be famous this is what follows me but around trump time it became cool yeah because that's the whole point is that you got i'm not going to call people out by name here but it became not just like a grift thing but it was like for the first time
Starting point is 00:39:24 they politics right is hollywood for ugly people and was like, for the first time politics, right, is Hollywood for ugly people. And so for the first time, now you have a movie star. I mean, we had Reagan, but you have this sort of television personality that's got this big personality about fame and kind of out there, and it's all about the shows and going to the convention centers and going to all the speeches. And so
Starting point is 00:39:40 this whole sub-tier, you know, these non-profits develop, and all these people, because of social media, could put MAGA in their name, could do anything for Trump. And it was seen as like counterculture and cool. And because of algorithms, you could get this following. And so you could be anything with MAGA and you could be cool. And so the problem with that is, is that it became about celebrity. And so our side became very much that you actually could be cool and could make money and could get ahead without having any bright ideas or any ability to get everybody hates you right and i mean everybody i just mean like you're you
Starting point is 00:40:09 you you put yourself in a position where a lot of people will despise you not in the algorithm though because the algorithms used to work that you would think that everyone liked you because you're like oh yeah you're right that's why i'm saying it's stupid you know for the people who didn't see what was happening that's why you have some you have so many of these youtubers who are like on the right and all of a sudden they're like actually i'm on the left and now they're just like saying stupid establishment talking points that don't make sense to try and pretend to not be conservative because they realize like hey wait a minute all of the big money big tech big hollywood yeah they're banning people who have these opinions and they're funding
Starting point is 00:40:41 people who have the other opinions and all of a sudden they found themselves on the other side of those opinions. Because, look, you want to be famous on the Internet, and you're willing to put the work in? I don't know, play Fortnite or Minecraft or whatever the kids are playing these days. Make more money, too. Yeah, it's absurd. You go to Twitch, and you look at the 100,000 concurrent viewers that someone's getting from playing some video game and talking about drama stuff.
Starting point is 00:41:07 And sure, you still get haters. You will. But you can see there's a lot of celebrities, there's a lot of actors and actresses and musicians who make all the money in the world if you're willing to put the work in. And everybody just is like, oh, they're pretty cool people. Like Keanu Reeves. Who hates Keanu Reeves?
Starting point is 00:41:22 Like nobody hates him. I want to know the names because I'm coming for you. everybody loves the guy it's like he's a cool dude he minds his own business and he doesn't even hover hands and yeah he doesn't want to offend anybody yeah he hover hands woman he knows so that he knows the game so much but he knows what he's in but like but what you were saying though is a lot of people do want to do this and that's the problem they don't do substance because it's not their passion so not bring anything new to the table that's why they fizz out. Because eventually people get tired of you.
Starting point is 00:41:49 I think people look at it objectively and they go, that looks easy. I can do that. Not realizing how much time, effort, energy goes into it. Not just even on like, just for example, I said to my mom recently, because she's just dying of just sadness in Melbourne at the moment, just under lockdown and everything. And she's having, my whole family is having a hard time especially especially my mom and so I said to her because I wanted to give her something to do I was like hey I could make videos a lot quicker if I had someone helping me do all the research because I'm a one-man band I do everything myself and so I said would you mind helping me my mom is a very very intelligent woman I thought that might be something that
Starting point is 00:42:19 would occupy her brain while she's you know dying in bloody lockdown so she says yes of course and so she starts helping me a little bit with with researching and then she says Sydney I actually didn't realize how difficult this is you know how you have to find qualitative sources how you have to read just so much information even just to get to the the kernel of what you needed to go into this part of the video and this that and the other and I said yeah it's not like you just wake up and go I made a video and then just jot something down and jump in front of the and hang out i'm sydney no it's like it's this whole in-depth thing so what you find is that and i'm sure that you guys have seen this too and i'm sure you can think guys you guys can't speak english i'm sure you guys have seen
Starting point is 00:42:55 this too and you can probably think of people off the top of your head as well who've done this but they come onto the scene they go this is easy i can do it too which is again fine take a running red hot crack at it the more people who can support right-wing ideology or you know moderate ideology whatever fine i'm happy with that and then they fizzle out because i find it's not easy it's not easy and that's why tiktokers make me so cross you know i turn the sound off and they're just doing this i've also seen people say like that's i can do that and then they do it and they win and that was phil defranco he in the very beginning i was making youtube videos and he started and that was Phil DeFranco. In the very beginning, I was making YouTube videos and he started
Starting point is 00:43:26 and he didn't know what he was doing but he watched me and was like, this guy's not good at what he's doing. I can do that better and then he did.
Starting point is 00:43:32 And then he does the antithesis of that. He said that he saw people doing it poorly and he knew he could do it better. I think he was talking about me and maybe other people too. That is the move too
Starting point is 00:43:40 is that it's like, well, most of this stuff is bad. I could at least do bad. I was trashed. No research. I was getting stoned. I would make videos whenever I felt like it. Did you have pants on? And how many cows were around you?
Starting point is 00:43:51 Sometimes. No shirts. Yeah, no cows. It was terrifying. You know what the secret is though? That's the best you do though. It was raw. Yeah, exactly. There's one big secret to success outside of everything we've ever talked about. They say perseverance, right? But there's actually one big secret, and it's a good memory. So, you know, I suggest people do memory games,
Starting point is 00:44:11 memory workouts, because if you have quick recall, that's how you become witty. That's how you're able to connect the dots and find points that other people haven't considered. So if you see a news story where they're like, you know, the cow jumps over the fence, and you're like, hey, wait, three weeks ago, they built that fence to stop cows from jumping over the fence, and the cow was able to just jump over it anyway, hey, wait, three weeks ago, they built that fence to stop cows from jumping over the fence
Starting point is 00:44:26 and the cow was able to just jump over it anyway. Yo, that was a waste of money. Then you have, hey guys, they wasted, you know, 100 bucks on building this fence because remember last week, if you can't, if you have a terrible memory and a lot of people don't have, you know, good recall then. And you've got to have a bunch of memories at once
Starting point is 00:44:40 so you can remember a bunch of things at the same time. And then they all form like a giant over memory that you can pick different. You can see like contingencies and, you know, angles. It makes me able to recall context. A lot of, you know,
Starting point is 00:44:53 a lot of videos are, are, are people will just edit them. You know, they'll, they'll, they'll be talking and they'll stop and they'll look at their notes and they'll start talking again.
Starting point is 00:45:01 And that's, I think what most people do. Some people can't even do that because I've tried, you know, giving people advice and they're like, man, I don't know how to do this. And I just talk. I don't have any notes.
Starting point is 00:45:10 Like, I have, like, the news stories and I'll read them. That's, again, because you're like, I know I feel bad for saying it, but you're a swampy creature with all your little articles
Starting point is 00:45:19 around you. Yeah, I've got all the... I take physical newspapers and I... Just rub them all over yourself. No, no, no. I crumple them up into a nest and then I roll on the ground on my side and I scrape the dirt over my body like a chicken.
Starting point is 00:45:32 I can attest to that. You know that before, people wonder if this is like a cult or whatever. The first time that I came in here, they literally did make me pick my favorite news article. They grounded it down literally into a pookie pipe, and they made me smoke it like a ghost.
Starting point is 00:45:49 This is absurd. The only thing that actually happened when Elijah first showed up is that we sat at the table, and we chanted gobble, gobble, over and over again. We said Trump's name seven times in the mirror. And they branded you, and that was that. You were times in the mirror. And they branded you and that was that. You were part of the club. Now when they all stand in a line, you can actually, the branding spells something.
Starting point is 00:46:11 That's very good. It's clever. Yeah, nobody actually lives in this. There's like three people who actually live in this house. Yeah, you drive up. You know, it's funny when people ask, they're like, oh, what's Tim's like? I'm like, a compound?
Starting point is 00:46:22 But would you call it a compound if it was the exact same thing but like in the middle of Chicago? I would not. I would call that, that's object sadness. Object sadness? If you were in Chicago. There's a cow outside.
Starting point is 00:46:32 I don't know what that's. There's no cow outside. Oh, I would get a cow though. That'd be cool. There's chickens outside. Exactly. You guys have got cats too, don't you? Cat.
Starting point is 00:46:40 One cat. Maybe some goats. I heard goats being tossed around. Not literally tossed around. Goats are so cute. Yeah. Little goats. The pygmy goats.
Starting point is 00:46:50 They jump on the backs of things. So cute. Yeah, I want to get... Maybe I'm going to eat a bunch. Oh my goodness. I was walking. Total... This is so not politically orientated,
Starting point is 00:46:58 but I was on a walk with my new puppy. I just got a puppy. He's the cutest thing in the world. And I'm like waddling along on this like walking track and I look up to the side and there's a bloody pig. Someone has a bloody pig in their backyard just got up. He's the cutest thing in the world. And I'm like waddling along on this like walking track. And I look up to the side and there's a bloody pig. Someone has a bloody pig in their backyard. Just hang out.
Starting point is 00:47:09 Why was it bloody? What did they do to it? Just, you don't want to know. A bloody pig. Was it like a pot-bellied pig? It was just this like cute little piggy. I don't know. It was just pink.
Starting point is 00:47:20 Was it doing pig stuff? Yeah, it was doing pig stuff. On a side note with what you were saying though, bringing it back, I don't know what we're talking about. I don't know why anyone let me in the room, honestly. But what's interesting, though, about that with the culture and society is that I've also seen that there's not this huge desire to change or to have progress like the progressive movement happens in the United States, which is why the politics is also not that interesting in Australia. People are not as tuned in. And the people that are follow American politics. This is the weirdest thing to me is I've watched – I mean this is significant, about 5%.
Starting point is 00:47:51 But considering there are less people in all of the nation of Australia than there are just in the state of California, to find that 5% of an audience, of a sizable audience, is from Australia from what I watched. I'm sure you guys have a decent amount of Australian audience as well. And the time zones and everything it's crazy but it's because they're interested because there's something different about our nation where things can change people really do have the power to change their country we really do have the ability to take control of ourselves and a lot of people in australia realize that they don't really have the power to change things they don't feel that innate also a dedication to their country like a lot of people don't
Starting point is 00:48:23 we're we're starting to see this here but before it even happened here like it was seen as a little bit bogan to maybe fly an australian flag unless it was a government building or something like people are not for americans bogan is um like a like a redneck no you're using more australian words to describe an australian word yeah so dero is derelict but you would say like, oh, you darrow for someone that's like white trash. Bogan is like those people that wear flip-flops with sweatpants or as we call them, tracky-dacks.
Starting point is 00:48:54 What's that British word that they've been calling? That's so specific. The C word? No, no, no. They call white middle-aged men. Chav? No, no, no, no. It's a reference to meat. Gammon. Gammon. Yeah, that means ham. No, no, no, no. It's a reference to meat. I love that word. It's a reference to meat. Gammon.
Starting point is 00:49:06 Gammon. Yeah, that means ham. Yeah, ham. There you go. Red face. Australia has some, honestly, like, Australia and England
Starting point is 00:49:11 have some really, really fun slang. Teach us. I think you're just making it up at this point. No, you're going to say something bad, aren't you? No.
Starting point is 00:49:19 Never. You already trust me. You should trust me, Timothy. You're already swearing. Yeah, come on, man. She's blushing. What's the most topically sensitive slang? Topically sensitive? Going for it yeah tv friendly um well you gotta you gotta give me some like
Starting point is 00:49:32 more context like angry like a bad word for politicians uh well in well see i don't know if many aussies who are watching this would agree but i like the word flog like when you call someone like a dead set flog i think that's very melbourne though but it's insults are definitely like dependent upon which area you're in so flog is a good one you can call someone a darrow that's also a good one you can also just say the c word that's also quite fun common i hear very common yes not in america very common oh i was in uh i was getting um food the other day well actually liquor the other day and when i was in the shop and i started speaking and the gentleman who was helping me basically said, Oh, where are you from?
Starting point is 00:50:09 And I said, Oh, I'm from Australia. And he goes, Oh, you guys use the C word. But he actually said it. He didn't say the C word. He physically said the actual word. And he goes, You say this all the time. And I said, Yeah, I suppose we do. And he goes, Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:18 And so he's back and forth. And as I'm leaving, he goes, All right, see ya. And all these people in the store go, I'm like, yeah, catch you, mate. Have a good one. But that isn't a bad thing to say. He called me, you know, a current. Oh, you're so happy about it.
Starting point is 00:50:36 No, no, it's like they curse so much. I'll tell you this. When I first met my wife in Australia, I probably hadn't cursed regularly in my language for years since I was a young, a very young adult or like teenager. It had completely left my language to the point where my wife would say things and I'd be like, baby, you can't say that. That's just, that's, that's a horrifying thing to say. And now I swear, like I've never been in the military, but you would think I had like seven
Starting point is 00:50:58 years on the high seas or whatever. And then you were around me all the time and I swear like a trooper. And it comes up, you're like, oh, Elijah curses. And like, why do you curse? And I'm like, I just hang aroundralians and nobody think no one uses that phrase oh you curse that's such an american thing like oh you curse it's just that's called australian english can you set our viewers straight on this one you guys love fosters uh it's i never brandon my new legend new producer, is going like this in the background.
Starting point is 00:51:25 You know what? No, Timothy. No. You're lying. Incorrect. I was going to back you up for a second. Fact check, lie. Fact check, incorrect.
Starting point is 00:51:32 So, no. The first time I ever had Fosters, I was in London and it's because someone said to me, you guys drink... You drink Fosters. And I was like, no, we don't. And then, you know, I've never...
Starting point is 00:51:41 It's not... We don't make it in Australia. We drink VB. Well, I don't, but Aussies drink VB. Why are you lying to everybody? Isn't Foster's made in the UK? I'm pretty sure it is. I'm pretty sure it is.
Starting point is 00:51:51 Tim, have you ever had a Foster's? I'm pretty sure Foster's is Australian for beer. Isn't Dos Equis also American? Probably. Dos Equis. White Plains, New York. But I'm saying, like, I think it's misinterpreted that it's actually from Australia because of the commercials. Doesn't that mean two X's?
Starting point is 00:52:05 Everybody knows three X's is better. You know what I mean? I make one as edgy joke, everyone gets turned off. And here we are. Here we go, Swamp Man. I got a question. This is off topic, but I'm taking us back off topic. Everything's off topic.
Starting point is 00:52:21 Like we were talking earlier about... Ever since Ian said putting his finger in the cow's mouth. Which, by the way, I think you could put two fingers in. I pictured it. That's why I feel dirty. You said triple X and we got the finger and I just... It's like a baby with their nipple that they... So a baby with a nipple thing that they suck on.
Starting point is 00:52:39 Do you guys think that we're entering a period where... You know you say a foreign nation needs to aid a country's revolution, and that's been basically historically what's happened, that Canada and Australia are going to require some sort of revolution and that they're going to need American support? Are you saying, do you think the United States will invade Canada? No, not an invasion at all. But, like, the French supported arms and money to the Americans for the first, before the revolution, for two years. Well, let's be real.
Starting point is 00:53:04 Canada's got a lot of oil. I don't know let's be real. Canada's got a lot of oil. I don't know if Aussies would ever. They got a lot of oil. You know, America loves that oil. There's such, what are you going to say? Australia's far away. Canada's like the same country pretty much. It's terrifying.
Starting point is 00:53:15 Canada needs to be liberated at this point. I feel bad for the Canadians. I wonder what a poll would say if you ask Canadians if they'd be willing to join the United States. I'm not saying it to imply Canadians would. I'd be interested to see. I imagine there would be a small percentage, particularly among a lot of the more border cities.
Starting point is 00:53:34 They'd probably be like, yeah, sure, why not? But I'd imagine most people would be like, no. And most people probably like what's happening in their country. No joke. I know a lot of Canadians. The reason these things happen in these countries like what's happening in their country. No joke. Like I know a lot of Canadians like the reason these things happen in these countries is because the people either tolerate it or or enjoy it. In the United States, we're going through conflict because the red states and the blue states are so
Starting point is 00:53:54 dramatically different from each other that Texas is like we're not locking down. No, no mask mandates and people are suing in the courts and Florida's like we're open. And New York is like full on fascist lockdown. No, no medical exemptions. Canada is just like straight lockdown. Australia is just like, lock them up. So the people there tolerate or like it. In the United States, you have a mixed bag of conflict. Well, it's because when they try to do something about it, they're arrested in droves. And when they do, and like, this is the thing, right? And Aussies get so cranky when you bring this up. And I dare say the Canadians do too. But this is what you have with a disarmed population. And I'm not even going down the gun road. I'm just simply saying that when you
Starting point is 00:54:33 have a population that is unable to defend itself in any capacity, which you are in Australia, for people who don't know, the list of prohibited weapons, even where I'm from, is so bloody long. And there's so many things you can't have you can't even have handcuffs you can't have body armor there's there's yeah mace mace is banned you can't have basically a gas mask you can't have non-lethal weapons in any capacity and the thing is well i mean the thing is that a lot of people don't realize that aussies when they go into these situations for example if you look up the footage of people in Melbourne, just for example, protesting these anti-lockdown protests, and these police are shooting at them, these rubber bullets in there, and they're
Starting point is 00:55:12 capsicum spraying them, and they're chucking tear gas into the crowds and what have you. These are people who don't have anything. They can't defend themselves. It's not an issue of a disarmed population. I think you have to go to the root of that, because even in the United States, for the most part, Antifa is not showing up to protests with AR-15s and firing them at cops or anything. Though we have seen an escalation in this. We've seen Antifa pointing guns at pedestrians and cars and stuff. The people of Australia and Canada are disarmed, but mentally, not physically. So a right that is not exercised is a right that is eventually lost. What allowed the people of Australia and Canada to enter a position where
Starting point is 00:55:49 they have no way to defend themselves? It is not about the fact the government came and took all their guns. It's about the people letting them do it in the first place, showing, we'll put it this way, imagine the will of the people as a giant, you know, 30 foot concrete wall from sea to shining sea built by Donald Trump. And over the years, as more and more damage is done to it, eventually it's eroding and it's crumpled. And then it just collapses. And they say, if only we had a wall, you know, we used to have one.
Starting point is 00:56:19 If only we had one now, that would stop everything. It's like, no, no, no, there's no will. There was a will to repair that wall. The people who are standing up and saying, I, you know, I resist this. That's the level of willpower. And over time in Australia and Canada, the willpower decreased and decreased and decreased and people became comfortable and they became fat and lazy. And now there's no willpower at all to resist. The reason why the second amendment is so important in this country is not because armed Americans are going to go march through the streets
Starting point is 00:56:46 and seize City Hall or anything like that. That's, I don't see happening, especially in this day and age. It's that the police can't serve warrants unless they do it properly. The police can't just kick your door in unless they get the proper warrant.
Starting point is 00:57:00 Because you look at, this is a very important one, Breonna Taylor, in the Breonna Taylor case, Breonna Taylor's boyfriend fired at the cops who busted the door down and that dude was cleared of any wrongdoing.
Starting point is 00:57:10 And so the cops in the US know we got to be real careful in Australia and Canada. You see these videos out of Canada where they kick the door and they're like, there's six people in here. And the old guy's screaming and they're dragging him out. They wouldn't do that here. Yeah, but that's the thing.
Starting point is 00:57:23 New York, they would. I suppose this is what I'm getting at, though. And just to qualify my position, I agree with you. Like, I think a lot of Aussies, Canadians, too, are definitely beaten down mentally. And they definitely have completely and utterly, they've resigned themselves mentally, for sure. I totally agree with that sentiment. Something I really dislike about my homeland is that sentiment precisely.
Starting point is 00:57:43 However, police would bloody think twice before ripping you down onto the ground and trying to handcuff you or shove things into your face or whatever whatever they're doing in these videos that are coming out of australia they would think twice if they thought that there was a potential that you were armed in any capacity and that you might actually fight back because you can't have you can't have a system where the the population is basically subservient to the police force. You can't have that. It shouldn't be that way.
Starting point is 00:58:08 That's not how this works. And Australia doesn't have the same issues with crime, say, that the United States has. Because obviously your demographics are very different. The way that your country is, I guess, made up is very different. So Australia doesn't have any of these issues. And the mentality of Aussies is very different. There's things about Australia that's wonderful mentality wonderful mentality wise there's things that definitely suck um but one of the biggest things is that aussies do believe that the police force is basically there to protect them they don't in any capacity i would say see
Starting point is 00:58:35 them as an enemy whereas here people are very skeptical of the police so when they do pull them down onto the ground they're not actually expecting that to happen in the first place so the the mentality towards having a gun actually isn't even there. So, yeah, what you're saying is totally correct, Tim. But that's part of the problem. So, you know, hearing this, I wonder, can Australians actually survive in their own countries outside of cities? Yes. Because people outside of the cities aren't...
Starting point is 00:59:01 You know how there's a big difference between city people and country people the world over yes so my dad for example from the country he's just like bumpkin human who's the best person in the world but definitely like oh she'll be right you know i've grown up with my guns i'm let's go kill some foxes let's go kill some rabbits type he's one of those kind of people um and he he is just not i'm not doing it not i'm not gonna not gonna put the mask on that i'm good thanks leave me alone and that's how people outside of the cities are it's people in melbourne city it's people in sydney it's people in brisbane and blah blah blah blah that are like oh yes daddy government but is it is it is it only this bad in like these key areas or is it widespread because like all of it's new south wales is like in total lockdown, isn't it? Yes, but yes.
Starting point is 00:59:45 I mean – yes. So – I had a map and it showed like the outline of their states. Yes. And it was all red. And like you could highlight each and every jurisdiction that was like can't leave your house, can't leave your house. Yeah, they're all subjected to the same stuff. This is where they're different there and why they're getting away with it though.
Starting point is 01:00:02 This is why they're getting away with it. This is the they're different there and why they're getting away with it, though. This is why they're getting away with it. This is the key thing. So in the United States, you're going to find a big difference between police forces in the inner city versus in the country. A huge difference. We already even have sheriff versus police, et cetera. So there's something very important that police have in general, even in Australia, which is this rule of necessary discretion. They can call it different things around the countries, but this is the same rule where you don't necessarily have to prosecute or charge everybody
Starting point is 01:00:28 or write the same ticket for everybody that commits the same crime. A good example is speeding. If you have a good explanation, just like here in Australia, they could not give you a ticket because it's necessary discretion.
Starting point is 01:00:38 You might have been going to your wife's... No, no, no. It gets recorded and sent back to a major database. So in Australia, they're probably going to give you a ticket. Yes, you probably will.
Starting point is 01:00:45 But I'm saying still you could have been like, oh, shoot. Yeah, like there was an emergency. Their leg was bleeding. We're not going to give you a ticket. We're going to go – I'll put my finger off. Yeah, well, yeah, exactly. So no, but I'm saying –
Starting point is 01:00:54 Ian. But meaning you can say, okay, a law was broken. But this makes sense. So we're going to overlook this. What's interesting is that here, if you go outside of the cities, you're also going to find a lot more, I mean, traditional where like people might even know the town sheriff or, you know, they might even understand this is just the town drunk and this is that or whatever it is. This has changed as we've advanced. The problem in Australia is that they still keep necessary discretion with every type of law, but they've
Starting point is 01:01:21 removed that from all COVID restrictions across all jurisdictions, even in the boonies and in the main city. So that's created as a unilateral enforcement where you do not and cannot use your own discretion when enforcing things. This is important because I know plenty of good people that serve in the police force out there. There's lots. There are. Before you start saying that all Australian police are horrible, Michael Malice says there's no good police, but whatever. Well, he's right about the Australian cops, that's for sure. Well, but not all of them are enforcing this. The problem is though. The mentality's different. The problem is
Starting point is 01:01:52 is that because of this necessary discretion, what they've done to the police is that if you do not, let's say, give someone a ticket for not wearing a mask, you then could get in trouble yourself. So they've created this totalitarian Gestapo in there. No, no, no, they haven't.
Starting point is 01:02:07 Well, they have, meaning they've changed what policing means in the country. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, no. To be fair, they're always going to give you a, like, they always give you a. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, come on. Like, the responsibility is always with the individual. Like, I just, I'm not, I'm not a fan of this argument where it's like, oh, those poor cops
Starting point is 01:02:20 who are enforcing the Gestapo's laws. I'm not, I'm not defending them. I'm saying that people who may have been a cop before who were thinking I could be a good guy have been pushed into a corner to where when it comes to COVID stuff, the policing, what it means. You could have been in the service for 20 years. Yes, they're complete dicks. They have speed traps that are horrible. They go into residential neighborhoods, try to get you going one mile over the speed limit in unmarked cars that don't look like cop cars. They randomly breathalyze you.
Starting point is 01:02:44 They're horrifying. But I'm saying that as you went out into, as you go out, sometimes the people were a little more chill, a little more relaxed. They're a lot nicer in the country. They found a way to get a hold of the nicer police, the more relaxed police, to creating a more nationalized police enforcement. I don't care what any politician says. It's the cop, the individual, who is the bad guy, who is the villain. They should absolutely quit, resign, immediately slam their bags on the table. Imagine to what degree, and when we keep saying it's just, it's just, it's just this, it's just
Starting point is 01:03:14 that. It's just 15 days. It's just a month. It's just a mask. It's just two masks. It's just one shot. It's just two. It's just three. It's just every five months. You keep doing that. And these cops are just like, sure, sure, sure, sure sure sure sure because they have no principles and they're bad people they were never good people because a good person and the good cops they email me they're like i quit as soon as they did this i said i can't i can't do that that's a violation of the constitution and they said you do it or it's your badge and said here's my badge but the people who remain like in australia who are like i was once a cop, but then the government told me to do it. So I said, OK.
Starting point is 01:03:46 But a lot of them aren't doing it because they're finding ways out of doing COVID enforcement. Then good for them. They're good cops. Or at least to a certain degree, they're better. I'll tell you where I disagree with Michael Malice. He says there's no good cop. Michael says that there is no – I'll paraphrase. I can't quote him.
Starting point is 01:04:02 All cops are bad people, he told me. He said there is no, you know, action so depraved that a police officer would not do it if ordered up and to executing children. Something to that effect. Whoa. I do not agree with Michael Malice. Michael's pretty intense. That's intense. I like him. And I may be getting the quote wrong, but he has said, like, every cop is a criminal.
Starting point is 01:04:22 No, I think there are a lot of cops that I've actually talked to and interacted with who are like, I resigned last week because they wanted to do this thing. They wanted me to do this. I said, I will not do it. The Seattle police chief, right? Isn't that the same thing where she was just like, I'm not – this is ridiculous. I can't do my job. So I'm resigning. But I wouldn't say that the Seattle police chief is a good person in my opinion based on a lot of what happened.
Starting point is 01:04:41 Carmen Best. But, right, but, but, but, I do believe that if you ordered a cop to do something, in the United States, a lot of cops would be like, yo, I can't do that, and they'd freak out. A lot of cops would probably do it. In Australia,
Starting point is 01:04:54 I am more inclined to agree with the general premise of Michael Malice's quote because they're locking down literally everything, and only based on the way you're describing it. They're willing to just
Starting point is 01:05:04 enforce whatever. Incitement. These weird policies. Watching them beat that woman because she was wearing a mask. And she's like, I have a mask exemption. He's like, I don't care. Timothy, they pepper sprayed a child in the face the other day. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:16 Welcome to your Gestapo. I mean, I feel bad, right? Because truthfully, I do feel bad because I know a handful of cops back home that are good people, that are friends of mine that are hating all of this and are trying not to participate as much as they can. And it makes me sad because I never was one of those people that hated the cops. I was always one of those people that would defend them because I think there is a mild, I guess people in Australia do somewhat, I obviously don't want to generalize here, but, you know, from what friends and things have said, they haven't liked the police historically.
Starting point is 01:05:44 And now their hatred for the police is bubbling over because of what they've been doing to people you know what australia needs what some kind of like organized group of activists who oppose the the like overt fascistic tendencies maybe like a group that opposes fascism like an anti-fascist group like we'll call it antifa yeah does australia have any kind of like antifa that could oppose the authoritarian lockdowns i'm just i'm thinking that maybe if they got together and congregated maybe we need a donald trump in australia to like kick that off you know just to just to trigger some yeah just to trigger some people in black outfits running around smashing they have antifaifa. I'll say that. They have Antifa. For sure in Australia.
Starting point is 01:06:26 I've seen them. Did you see the Antifa people? Oh, there's Antifa there. I know. They've come to events of mine. Extinction Rebellion is big. I went to them. Have you guys seen the video of the Antifa people attacking the group that opposed state
Starting point is 01:06:39 mandates, mask mandates? Yes. Antifa shows up and they start. They're anti-fascist, but they're pro-state. They're statists. And that's why I keep telling people, like, do not call Antifa anarchists. They are not anarchists. They're communists.
Starting point is 01:06:52 Absolutely. They're communists. They're authoritarians. And they're actual fascists, some of them. Yeah. David Graeber, the late David Graeber said that there's an element of the left that has adopted the fascistic ethos of uh well the fascistic tendencies not that to say that they are fascists in the academic sense or they are nazis but they certainly
Starting point is 01:07:11 believe a lot of the exact same things around uh and that was the extent of his twitter thread but they do believe these things to the extent of identitarianism government power and control to the point where they'll be like we oppose fascism and we we'll beat back regular Americans who are upset with government and corporate power. Like in D.C., when a bunch of conservatives got together and said, we oppose corporate power and centralization. So Antifa showed up and started beating people. It's like, dude, if you're beating people in defense of corporations and the state, you're a fascist.
Starting point is 01:07:40 Yeah. But hey. You're also probably ugly. Physiognomy check. Have you seen a lot of them? They're deformed looking. And it's so sad because it really is hey. You're also probably ugly. Physiogamy check. Have you seen a lot of them? They're deformed looking. And it's so sad because it really is true. They're reprobate.
Starting point is 01:07:49 This is who the Joker targets. Haven't you ever seen Dark Knight? Yeah. This ideology targets people who are desperate and unwell. And so, yes. Describes them well. You look at a lot of these anti-females. Not every single one of them, but a lot of them.
Starting point is 01:08:04 And they're dejected, antisocial, and unwell in a lot of ways. And so they're attracted to a violent, dogmatic mob. They're not fighting for anything other than they feel pain and they want to cause pain. They look sick. You know who Jason Charter is? Jason Charter is the Antifa organizer in D.C. Didn't he get arrested? Yeah, he was getting charged for
Starting point is 01:08:27 two decades worth of jail time simply because he tried to pull down the Andrew Jackson statue and organize the siege on the White House, but that's what they're alleging. The insurrection. Yeah, exactly. That forced the president into the bunker. Yeah, the insurrection on the actual White House.
Starting point is 01:08:44 I've spoken to him. I've had him on my show before too, and it's interesting because when you speak to him, he's disabled. I'm not being rude. He's just got a gaunt looking – people think he looks a little bit like maybe he's on chemo or something like that. He's pansexual. He said this on my show. And it's really – I kind of actually felt bad for a second because what I realized is that at a certain era or time in a different world, this guy probably could have just been like this guy that would have been rejected from society. But now someone gave him the chance to fight back and tear down the regime, to tear down the statue, to be known for something. And he fell into this trap.
Starting point is 01:09:18 I believe he fell into this trap. I don't believe he's strong-willed or strong-minded. He fell into this trap and now he believes he's like a martyr when really he's just like a terrorist. And that's kind of the funny thing. He's actually just a terrorist. In the past, someone would have helped him. That's what I'm saying. Instead, they enable.
Starting point is 01:09:31 But I'm saying they could have helped him with some programs and find meaning in life and some counseling and get his brain intact. But there's this – instead of helping the weak, like you're saying, it's a society that preys on the weak. And what used to either help or destroy is now about taking advantage of weak people to carry out their deeds yeah and that's what we're seeing now too even with the covid stuff is it's all about preying on the minds of the weak and i want to say this is so important but kez brought this about australia because of the rhetoric coming out of dan andrews and and of uh bergiclian i don't know how you say bergiclian bergiclian the premier of new south wells gladys we see this here in a lesser extent. But what the premiers are saying is they make you be obedient,
Starting point is 01:10:11 and then they change the goalposts and reimpose the restrictions and then tell you you have to do a little bit more obedience to get the restrictions removed. And then they remove the restrictions, and then they add them again. And then at a certain point, they started saying, this is how the rhetoric went, the you who are obedient, this sounds rhetoric went. The you who are obedient, this sounds like a regime,
Starting point is 01:10:27 you who are obedient, the reason why you are unable to finally break out of this constant cycle of lockdown and totalitarianism is because the unvaccinated, the disobedient, are keeping you locked down.
Starting point is 01:10:39 And you capitulated. You gave in. Many of you compromised. You got the vaccine when you didn't want to get it. You put on a mask when you didn't want to put it on. You agreed with lockdowns when you didn't think they were right. You held your kids from school. And you know what's happening? Because of this small group of people who are still resistant, you have to be
Starting point is 01:10:57 punished again. And their resistance isn't just affecting them. It's affecting you. And it's splitting the population against the subservient and those who are independent. And they're creating this weak group of people who are more and more capitulating and more and more are giving in to hate the people, thinking that it's the unvaccinated that are causing the problems, but it's the government who are causing them. So it's getting that it's deflecting off the government. It's like, no, the government is causing the issues. They're the ones locking you down. They're the ones ruining your life. They're the ones instating
Starting point is 01:11:26 the restrictions. It's not the unvaccinated people that are ruining your life. It's kind of weird because, like, I agree with you to an extent, but just looking at the things that, again,
Starting point is 01:11:36 I have, like, all my friends and family, a ton of them are in Australia, and the things that they say is stuff like, it's not that hard to wear a mask. Just wear a mask. And it's like, these are people who are conservative or at least like who you know lean
Starting point is 01:11:48 to the right or who you know are libertarians somewhere on the right wing somewhere and these are people who are like well just wear the mask like it's not it's not that big of a deal because i i think the problem is that and again i don't want to i don't want to say mean things about aussies but i think that to some extent people have a hard time connecting the dots between government overreach and how that could inevitably lead to very, very unpleasant things further down the line, which I think... Like the concentration camps. Precisely.
Starting point is 01:12:12 I mean, and no, it's like, it's not even an ironic thing anymore. It's like the worst thing in the world that they're building these quarantine facilities that people somehow think are normal. And again, they're literally building one of them up the road or very very close to where my family lives in victoria and it's disturbing in a lot of ways to think about again how and i was trying to find the street for lydia just in case she wanted to you know pop it up on screen or something where someone had basically taken these photos of one of these quarantine facilities and said well look how nice it is look there's a pool and there are the people drinking the coffee and oh this person's sitting on a deck oh that's freaking great you can't leave though
Starting point is 01:12:48 that's oh it's a nice bloody cage i'll give you that but it's still a cage and you're not there because you want to be you're not there because you're in free will you're not there because this of your own volition you're there because the government put you there and you're defending this and this is the problem with australians again aussies are great people nicest people wonderful people kind people but they are buttheads sometimes when it comes to this stuff and this is the problem with australians again aussies are great people nicest people wonderful people kind people but they are buttheads sometimes when it comes to this stuff and this is why i wanted to get out of the country where's where's antifa they're i don't know sitting in their home in their you know home has there has there been a prominent antifa presence in australia before not really they tried but again aussies are very politically ambivalent
Starting point is 01:13:22 so to actually get a group of people together who are willing to go and smash things up is actually quite challenging. Where's New York City Antifa? We could fly them over, maybe. Maybe they could. No, I mean, like in New York, where they've basically said all disabled people ineligible for the vaccine will be terminated from their jobs on the 13th of September. I don't know why you're asking me. Ask Elijah. He's the one who pays with all the Antifa.
Starting point is 01:13:45 Unfortunately, they're the ones thinking that and siding with the state. They're basically some of the most easily manipulated piece of crap people that unfortunately for us. I want to get this. That's an Aussie phrase. Unfortunately for us, what they are doing is they are pushing the authoritarian mandates. They are an extension of far left political ideology. And whatever the far left is pushing in this country, they just side with. They don't have any original thought. They are well organized. But as of right now, they are being used to bully
Starting point is 01:14:14 people. And especially what they are most being known for right now, especially is attacking anti-lockdown protests, even church groups. I'm sure you guys covered that in Portland. They're attacking prayer meetings. They destroyed an entire ministry's office. They're attacking Christians now because Christians are being seen as some of the few purveyors who are against this tyranny. Who would it be said that people who believe in individual liberty and liberty to Christ would not want the government coming down on you? The same government that also burned and hung a lot of them upside down and also killed Jesus. But anyway, thanks for coming back. We actually need right now
Starting point is 01:14:48 based on what we're seeing in New York. We need actual people who oppose fascism to stand up, reject this, to protest and say no. I'm looking at NYC Antifa and they don't care at all. They're cheering for the government on January 6th.
Starting point is 01:15:04 They love all this sort of stuff. They're get them boys something because they're not they're not anti-fascist they just use that as a way to recruit stupid college students who don't know better well angry people too something that i wanted to say actually at the beginning of this show um and we sort of got very off topic talking about cows and things was when you were talking about this this legislation where you know the government comes in and can put things on your phone and all that i think people need to realize that in australia especially and i know this is the same thing here in the united states and i dare say in most western countries around the world but australia has some of the most psychotic legislation pertaining to what the government can do to you
Starting point is 01:15:35 obviously um but especially towards like terrorism legislation so when they pass these extreme things these extreme measures that are you know in response to a terror attack or, you know, COVID or whatever the case is. Obviously, we all know that they never appeal them. But I think people need to look into some of the terrorist legislation that exists in Australia, the anti-terror legislation, where like, for example, when I was doing my master degree, I did this ethics course. And basically, we had to learn it because it was my master's in journalism, we had to learn about like ethics and you know, where the social contract on this fun stuff. And they were talking to us about ethics and the social contract and all this fun stuff.
Starting point is 01:16:09 And they were talking to us about how if you accidentally stumble upon information relating to some of this anti-terrorism legislation where you start covering a story that relates to somebody who's been detained under this specific legislation, you yourself can basically be arrested for uncovering it and speaking about it. So there's all this psycho legislation in Australia that's actually a lot worse than what you're even talking about. And it set the precedent for worse and it and speaking about it. So there's all this psycho legislation in Australia that's actually a lot worse than what you're even talking about. And it set the precedent for worse and worse and worse legislation that continues to infringe
Starting point is 01:16:31 the rights of Aussies. And Aussies don't know and don't care because they're politically ambivalent. So once again, we roll back around to the fact that am I surprised that Australians are sitting in their homes and have been sitting in their homes for 200 days plus? No, I'm not. Because this is this is what you get with an ambivalent population. If they want it, they get what they want, I guess. You know, we pay for it. No, I'm not because this is what you get with an ambivalent population. If they want it, they get what they want,
Starting point is 01:16:46 I guess. We pay for it. No refunds. You know, I live in West Virginia and it's kind of all right. For the most part, you got a big,
Starting point is 01:16:54 empty bit of land. Can you play that song, West Virginia? Yeah. Don't Australians love that song? Yes. That's weird. I want to play it.
Starting point is 01:17:00 We can't play it. Elijah, let's play it on the drive home. No, we will, but I'm just saying it's funny when you come down here from texas yeah we drove all the way from texas we jumped no fly list no you know but i was gonna say that like when it comes down to this it's funny people who are anti-government like when you look at who actually killed for instance throughout all the history who caused most of the problems right even if you go
Starting point is 01:17:19 to like waco and you look at the atf and you look at what they did was it the fbi i'm it was technically the atf but but but i'm saying but you go down it's like okay the government and you look at the ATF and you look at what they did. Was it the FBI? It was technically the ATF, but I'm saying, but you go down and it's like, okay, the government. And you look down with a lot of the things that are screwed up. But like I was mentioning earlier with Jesus as well, like the Roman government technically killed Jesus. Everybody says it was the Jews. The Jews were, it was the Pharisees
Starting point is 01:17:38 and stuff were wanting his head, but technically the only people who could order and actually carry out the execution during that time would have been the governing empire, which would have been this. And you go back through all of history and like every religion everywhere around the world, look at all the history. At the core of the problem is a government that tries to trick the people into thinking that it's looking out for their own interests. But as it goes rogue, eventually it declines because it loses contact with the people. And you end up having somebody else stronger comes in and takes over where they see a weakness to meet the will of the people and it's kind of interesting in all of this that
Starting point is 01:18:08 government people like this is why i never understood why why why black americans are so democrat it's like so you're saying the government screwed you over and allowed slavery and like brought you over here and then ruined you and then you know put jim crow laws and everything so you want to be a part of the party of big government that that continues to do this like so you're mad at the government but now you want the government to solve your problems they ruined your life they literally destroyed they brought you over here and just continually destroyed your life and held you back and now you're looking to that same entity that destroyed your life to bring you out of it you think something's changed you think that the government is now suddenly good and they're going
Starting point is 01:18:43 to help you like i don't understand why. You think those unchecked people will suddenly be checked and start doing things that make sense? Elijah, that's silly. No, but I'm just saying, like, with this government thing, it's like nobody has gotten anything more wrong about COVID since the beginning, since government entities and organizations. Everything has pretty much been wrong or a.k.a. suddenly corrected or disappeared. The science changed. Yeah, exactly. The facts. They said new facts, right? That's the whole phrase. been wrong or aka suddenly corrected or disappeared the science changed yeah exactly the facts they
Starting point is 01:19:05 said new facts right that's the whole phrase and so it's like look man i'm about at the point now where this isn't working anymore okay you killed my savior good thing he rose again from the dead and now i have new life and apparently now he's on my podcast with me hey second coming everyone is it i was gonna say the way that ian was just looking at you as you were talking about jesus he was like i know i do love Jesus. He's telling my story. Dude, if we lived like Jesus, like a real Christian, embody the spirit of what you believe is right. Amen.
Starting point is 01:19:33 Tim, are you a Christian? Yes, Christ is King. No, but the problem is not that. I just needed to know because I needed to know if I'm not the only atheist in the room. No, I'm not an atheist. No, I never said you were a pet. I'm just saying that... So you're the only atheist in the room.
Starting point is 01:19:43 I am the only atheist in the room. I'm not a man, Timothy, pet no hold on let me qualify let me qualify let me qualify now that now that tim and i are friends we're friends um i i elijah can again call like can again qualify this i say pet all the time and it freaks americans out because they're like why are you calling me a pet and i'm like i'm I'm not. It's just part of my speech. What am I, a cow? Peter, are you an atheist? No. I'm more agnostic than anything.
Starting point is 01:20:12 I mean, that cosmic microwave background radiation is like the permeating radiation left over from the Big Bang. It looks like it's interacting with matter and causing God. That's the experience of that interaction is God. It seems like it. But I believe that this Christ consciousness is real, that it can permeate this like I don't know what it is like a spirit of goodness I know good and evil are subjective but because the Holy Spirit the spirit of God is over the earth and a lot of people mock me for my
Starting point is 01:20:33 belief in God but it's not just a consciousness like Christ is a real person but he's also God and what's interesting is is that I and this is where I know people who are not Christian would not believe this but the only thing that is holding evil back is the spirit of God that is currently on the earth in those that are chosen. There's going to end up being a rapture and that one time that's why the end of the world comes. He pulls the spirit off the face of the earth. It's true. And actually evil continues. We have the Antichrist.
Starting point is 01:20:54 Things happen. This is why it's weird how the Bible, the one world government towards the end. Like, no, but I'm saying it says what the world would be like in the end times. And it describes what it would be like. And it looks like the world would be like in the end times and it describes what it would be like and it looks like the world today. It also says that there would be the sharing of knowledge, this increased rapid sharing of knowledge around the world and a one-world economy, that it would create a one-world economy, a global economy, and a one-world government would be their goal where you had to have some sort of a mark. It says this in the Bible. Yeah, where you had to have some sort of a mark to buy or to sell.
Starting point is 01:21:20 And that was like – it's very interesting that that's what it says about the end times. The Mark of the Beast says that you cannot buy cannot buy sell or trade unless you bear the mark and when i first heard that it was a super chat on this show i was like that that's too specific talking about free market restrictions what do you mean and then i looked it up yeah it literally says you can't buy so it's possible but i i have to ask a question on that um you're saying the only thing holding evil back is the spirit is the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit. So does that imply that God put the evil here on purpose? No.
Starting point is 01:21:49 It's not that God put the evil here on purpose. God created the evil and the evil is coming for us. So what's interesting is that if you look at actually Christian theology or what actually happened is Lucifer, the devil that we call the devil or Satan, is actually an angel. All demons are fallen angels. And part of why God is not a slave master, but he's a just and a fair God is he gives you free will or the right to serve him or to not. And he is perfect. And so what happened was, that Lucifer became, I could say jealous, but he thought that he was the best of all the angels, right? He's the most beautiful, most talented. He was ahead of all of the music and that he actually rebelled against God. And he thought that he could be God, like God.
Starting point is 01:22:28 And so it's kind of interesting even how sin was brought into the world. But he was cast out of heaven. Many believe that means that he was sent down to earth, and that's why there's that big crater down in the Gulf. But anyway, a lot of people believe that. You can tell? Yeah, I don't know if that's true. But I will say that he was cast down. And what's interesting is that it talks about that, that some of these demons actually
Starting point is 01:22:45 were so evil. And after they revolted and separated themselves from God, that some of them are even like locked in chains at the bottom of like the Euphrates river and they're held back. And that when the Holy Spirit leaves, that the evil is finally unleashed on the earth, that full evil is unleashed. The reason why the good keeps winning and the reason why like evil never fully is able to triumph and indefinitely take over is because the holy spirit of god is continually on the face of the earth and is holding evil back but there's a moment where god gives us what we want and what people want like
Starting point is 01:23:13 how aussies want they want the government eventually you really talk to them but most aussies like i think what the government's doing is good i mean that's really at least they think it's okay yeah they're not like vehemently What humans want is to not have to deal with God. And then God gives us that. He goes, okay, have yourself. And that's why the Antichrist is able to rise up. And it's so weird to me, though, that a bunch of, you know, and I'm saying this sarcastically for people who can't understand that,
Starting point is 01:23:38 but a bunch of crazy fishermen liars, you know, thousands of years ago somehow predicted that what the end times would look like is that people would be liars. They would claim to have the fear of God but not express its power, that they would hate their families. Families would be divided against themselves, that they would be backstabbers. It talked about they'd be greedy, lovers of themselves, haters of God, mockers of God. And that the key factors would be that there would be pestilence, earthquakes, and these would be signs of the times. And the goal would be, the spirit of the Antichrist would be to create a one world economy and a one world government and that if you that being an
Starting point is 01:24:09 allegiance to that government was part of the the uh you had in order to like buy sell trade to live you had to give your allegiance to that leader who would take over and declare himself god and it even even predicted the rebuilding of of and it says that we'll know who he is because he's going to sit he's going to rebuild the temple on on the Temple Mount where he's going to rebuild the temple after it's destroyed. And he's going to sit on the throne and declare himself God. And he said that Israel was going to reform as a nation and that it's like funny they predicted that Israel was going to reform and it did. And then they already have the plans in place right now and the materials to rebuild the new temple and they're waiting for the right moment. So it's like it's crazy that like if it's not real how they got so much of it right or they read it and said hey let's do that that's possible too but i mean yeah
Starting point is 01:24:53 yeah that that could that could be but you know i wonder that's such a yep that's just a really good explanation that could that could be but they also don't believe in the new testament the jews don't even believe in in that as, so they don't follow that. No, I don't think it's any one particular group. I'm saying like if you're saying that they're – Zionists don't believe in the New Testament. If there is a group of like global special interests who are doing the things as predicted, it could just be those global special interests are like, hey, I read this book. You read it.
Starting point is 01:25:20 Hey, there's a bunch of good ideas for how we should control the world. I don't think they really respect – well, then why would they just randomly follow Revelation and not follow anything else? No, no, I'm saying they're deliberately doing it. I mean, it doesn't give you the plans on how to carry it out. No, but they're trying. These are the signs. They're too vague to actually give you a way to carry it out.
Starting point is 01:25:36 And then why would you choose that book? I mean, it just – if you look at it, it's statistically probably improbable. I think that – Let me ask you. When do you think the – so it's happening now right i think we're i think we're in the the last days yeah i think we're in the end times how much time do we have i says no man knows the day or the hour that's part of the reason because it says that you know it's crazy is it says that when these things are coming to
Starting point is 01:25:58 an end when the god comes to rapture his people it actually but there's no rapture is not mentioned yes yes it says they'll be caught up yes it is it says they'll be caught up and there's no the word rapture is not that's an english word an american word yes so i'm saying that it says being caught taken off so what it actually talks about is very interesting because this happened with with with enoch and other people in the bible but what is really really interesting about this i'm saying is that it categorizes this idea it's it's very interesting interesting. It even kind of predicts the theory of evolution and whatnot, that it says that during this time, people are going to be mocking God
Starting point is 01:26:30 because it says they're going to be buying and selling in trade, being given in marriage, and living life as it is, saying that life has always been and it always will be, that it's been going for a long time, and it's going to continue to evolve and continue to move on the way that it's been. And people are just going to be caught up in their own lives, in their own sin, in their own focus. And then God's going to come back to judge the world.
Starting point is 01:26:50 And it's going to catch them off guard. It's like a thief in the night that he's going to come back and it's going to throw everybody off. And that's kind of crazy because even with COVID, it's like you're just living and buying and selling and trading and living life. Then all of a sudden, the world changes. And we see that where things just change in an instant. I know you guys don't believe it, but that is what I believe. I saw this movie, and I guess, you know, spoiler alert for anybody who wants to see the movie Antidote.
Starting point is 01:27:11 I saw it on Amazon. It's actually pretty good. What is it? Well, I'm just giving everybody a spoiler warning. Give them a few more seconds for this to catch up and then realize if you want to see the movie, it is about a woman who wakes up in a hospital where they torture people, but then give them a healing serum to regenerate them and then continue doing experiments on them. And so they do things where they cut their eyes out or cut out their tongue or impale them and then heal them and then keep doing it, cut their legs off. And spoiler warning for anybody who wants to see it because it actually is a pretty good movie.
Starting point is 01:27:41 All right, here we go. It actually turns out, and I caught this immediately, so maybe it's is a pretty good movie. La, la, la. All right, here we go. It actually turns out, and I caught this immediately, so maybe it's not a spoiler. The main character wakes up in her bed, and she's like, something's wrong. My stomach hurts. And her husband rushes her to the hospital, and then she has to go for appendicitis.
Starting point is 01:27:56 What's it called? Appendectomy. That really hurts, just by the way. So they give her the anesthetic. She goes out. They go in surgery. And then she wakes up in this hospital, where she's in a different room. It's a different doctor, and her the anesthetic. She goes out. They go in surgery. And then she wakes up in this hospital where she's in a different room.
Starting point is 01:28:06 It's a different doctor. And her scar is healed. She can still see the scar, but it's mostly healed. She's like, how long have I been here? And I immediately said, she's dead. She's in hell. And so I guess the idea of the movie is that she's in the level of hell where they torture you and then heal you and then torture you over and over again for eternity. And the story was that she used to be a drug addict and she was dating this guy who was abusing her.
Starting point is 01:28:27 And then one day when he was abusing her, she grabbed something and swung it at him and slashed his throat, accidentally killing him, and then strung him up with piano wire to get away with the crime. And she was condemned to an eternity of being tortured, literally an eternity. And I'm like, man, that's really messed up.
Starting point is 01:28:43 Like this idea of uh of you know you you're defending yourself and you accidentally kill somebody and then you panic and now you have to literally go to this hell where you get your legs chopped off you get stabbed in the chest they cut your face off and so i think about stuff like that and i'm like if god after everything we've seen with all the evil and and and the power of the evil to manipulate and lie, cheat, and steal and trick people and all that, for God to come down and be like, I'm judging everybody. And these good people of good conscience and ethics who didn't worship me and didn't have faith in me, you're all going to go to hell too, even though it was the evil that tricked you. But didn't you say about cops that they're not good if they don't quit based on those things. So meaning like what defines being a good person than if God is perfect. God defines that none of us are good, no, not one, because we were born into sin.
Starting point is 01:29:30 So he's saying that the only way to actually become and find redemption is through the faith in the work of Christ on the cross. So what happens to the nonbelievers when the rapture happens? Well, not everyone believes in that the rapture is going to happen. But let's just say in your view, like God will come to judge everybody. I think that a lot of people will wake up because I believe that a lot of people are familiar with this and they will realize – because the Bible talks about that a lot of people refuse to get the mark and the punishment is beheading. They actually get beheaded in the guillotine-style thing. They get their heads chopped off if you don't submit to the one-world government.
Starting point is 01:30:01 And that's because you're seen as an enemy because even though you're just not buying, selling and trading, you're a threat, like a terror threat. All right, so what's going to happen? So I'm saying that it seems that it seems that a lot of people get killed, that a lot of people who appear, I would assume of good conscience, realize, oh crap, that was right.
Starting point is 01:30:15 And that they become, they give their lives to God. That's what it seems like. So what I'm saying is there's obviously going to be a lot of people who are good people in that they, you know, so I'll use my, look, I believe in God, but I don't believe in Christian theology. So, you know, would I be condemned to hell? Because I'm like.
Starting point is 01:30:35 Yeah, it's about Kezia. She and I have conversations about this all the time, Elijah's wife, because she's, you know very christian as well and the way that she's described it to me is that it's not necessarily about your it's it's actually it is actually about whether or not you fully actually believe in god it's not about your good works it's not about um any of that sort of stuff it's about whether or not you effectively like let him into your life so but the good works would follow so it's kind of like sure sure sure i could say i'm a car but it doesn't make me when i can make the noises and the sounds but it doesn't make me a car like yeah you could say like oh i do believe in god but a faith like you mentioned if you believed in god and you would get
Starting point is 01:31:11 to know his heart that that should that would transform you and that you would become more like god you would see this with a lot of people who genuinely have real conversion and they become christians that there's a radical change in their life i don't i don't i don't who are hypocrites though who i'm a christian but who don't actually they're not actually christian if you know what i mean like and i'm not here to judge anybody because what the hell do i know because i'm not religious why would i you know pledge anything to to an entity that would condemn sydney to hell well he's not condemning sydney to hell sydney's choosing to go right but also i mean by the way so like to eternally torture and cause suffering
Starting point is 01:31:46 for someone based on ignorance. But it's not based out of ignorance because actually Sydney's smarter than me. So this is the point. Thank you. This is the point. Sydney's actually hyper-intelligent. I don't think Sydney's stupid.
Starting point is 01:31:56 You'd never guess that. I don't think Sydney's stupid. And I actually used to be agnostic. I've said that. I used to be agnostic. I didn't really know what I believed, but I did know that it's, what's interesting about this is, is that this is also beyond just the physical, that there is an
Starting point is 01:32:09 actual such thing as the spirit of a person of a man and that these things, that's why we can be immoral or moral versus dogs are instinctual, right? These are animals. They don't, they don't have the soul. This is what is what is distinct realized about sentience, about the person of who I am as a human being. This makes me sacred and special. God designed me in his image. And so someone like Sydney, Sydney is not dumb. And I thoroughly and fully believe that when I met Sydney, she was an atheist. Now she's agnostic.
Starting point is 01:32:33 Who knows where she's headed now? But I do believe that, for instance, God put us in our lives together. That's why we have a new show coming out together. Let's do this. We're going to go to Super Chats. We can fight each other. We will fight each other on the new show. Let's have an extended conversation
Starting point is 01:32:45 for the members podcast on all this stuff because I find it really fascinating so timcast.com check it out watch the atheists and the Christian go head to head
Starting point is 01:32:53 we love each other we do actually I love Elijah he's a good guy when we wrap up the show we then immediately start pre-recording we record the member segment
Starting point is 01:33:00 then upload it around 11 or so p.m. on the website and so go there become a member and smash the like button. Share the show. Really, sharing is the most powerful thing you can do because then more people watch
Starting point is 01:33:10 it and word of mouth makes everything work better. But let's read some of these super chats we got from everybody. And make sure you smash that like button. All right, let's see. Whacked Out says, serious question. This is an interesting question. This was from earlier, from 8 o'clock.
Starting point is 01:33:27 Ian, do you believe in reality or observation? You would need to define real, what that means. So observation. The observer tends to define its experience, yeah. Look at these little rocks. I want one. The obsidian rock?
Starting point is 01:33:41 Yeah. You both have one. Were we both spinning them? Yeah, you both were playing with rocks. You're wiping off, though. Can I try a little more of that whiskey? Did you put it in your mouth? No, not yet.
Starting point is 01:33:51 Can you tell someone what this is? Ian, you love... Yeah, it's a HeShe rice whiskey. You guys, this is a very nice box of this, and I don't even like whiskey. Why am I working with this? And I tried a very little bit, and I'm actually very excited to try a little more. And this is, like, top- dollar stuff. That's obsidious. This is a good gift. He's a very generous man.
Starting point is 01:34:07 Is drinking allowed on YouTube? In Assassin's Creed Valhalla. No. Tastefully. In Valhalla you can. Yeah I wouldn't say drunkenness would be allowed. Smash this to make things. Interesting. Obsidious. It's incredible. Like a little taste of rice whiskey. It's so good in your palm. Alright let's see. Anon Nobody says Sydney and Tim
Starting point is 01:34:23 should do a collab both have awesome singing voices do you sing i do yeah oh yeah well we we just laid down a scratch track for a new song we're working on we should actually get you to record some vocals now while we have you and then use them for the song so fun like right now like literally after the show walk down and just press the microphone and then just like record for 30 seconds beautiful yeah done i guess theoretically we could always just have you do it whenever. Yeah, I mean, I have equipment that I can use to record.
Starting point is 01:34:48 No, I used to do heaps of music stuff and then I... He's really good. I mean, I like to think I don't suck. I think that's the best way to put it.
Starting point is 01:34:55 But I do play piano too. People find that quite shocking. I play piano and I sing. Oh, hell yeah. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:35:00 Piano's beautiful. Honestly, best instrument. I know that, you know, you guys... You know, my problem with piano is that with piano, you can't get the notes between the two keys.
Starting point is 01:35:10 Do you mean the sharps and flats? No, between the sharp and the white key, between those. There's no note on a piano. With a guitar, you can bend the string a little bit more, and you get more variety of note. Oh, interesting. You can hit frequencies pianos. That's why I like pianos, though.
Starting point is 01:35:23 It's because everything is like, it is what it is. You get what you get. Exactly. I like both. Yeah, like guitar playing is like skateboarding and piano is like rollerblading. Piano is honestly, but that's how my brain is, though. I like this rigid regimen. Because you're emotional.
Starting point is 01:35:37 And I will find myself playing guitar during the day. And then after 10, I play piano and get really heady. And the songs are deeper. They are deeper. They're deeper. With the piano too, because especially when you get into minor chords or different scales, you end up getting this real deep and somber mood. And so, yeah, if you want to rock out and have a good time, get your heart out quickly, fine. Guitar.
Starting point is 01:35:57 But piano, it's like an emotional soul connection. It's kind of amazing. You know who's a great contemporary artist that writes piano music is yoruma um i believe he's japanese or maybe he's not paid too is really good and um there's isaac shepherd he's wonderful as well i don't know just i just love piano all right we got sorta he says we should send biden down under the box a thousand kangaroos yes yes i'd pay to watch i know well they'd probably beat him to death well i just i just don't want to see kangaroos getting hurt you know like i don't think kangaroos can consent to a boxing match didn't they do that once there's a famous kangaroo oh i think so oh no maybe they are
Starting point is 01:36:34 there's like six million what for every one million australians like six yeah yeah have you ever eaten a kangaroo yes i have as well i think kangaroo jerky did you like it yeah it tasted like jerky no no no you gotta have the... What happens when you put your finger in a kangaroo's mouth? Let's ask Ian. Don't do that. Don't do that, by the way. Oh, hey, by the way, don't stick your fingers in cows' mouths. An ex-girlfriend told me it felt good that she did it.
Starting point is 01:36:58 I never did it. What else felt good? Could be dangerous. I didn't ask. Don't recommend that. Literally go stay. No, Elijah, no. Alright, Carrie the Crazy says, dangerous i didn't ask don't don't recommend that yeah yeah literally go stay no go do it no elijah no all right carrie the crazy says long time member first time caller love you all please look into the national archives closed down due to covid and the effects it has on va disability claims they cannot receive our official records because no one is sending them whoa wow uh stephen zilligan says i will buy sydney a ranch tomorrow
Starting point is 01:37:26 in wyoming or montana yes email me wyoming good crypto or idaho perhaps i don't know start your wyoming corporation yeah if you want to use crypto i hear they have fantastic crypto laws for what happens when uh when the zombie apocalypse happens and we have no internet? I think you just said apocalypse. Apocalypse. I don't know. Satellite internet? I would buy more stuff with the obsidian that you've hit. Dude, we're going to get more obsidian.
Starting point is 01:37:53 All right. Harvey Slayer says, Ian isn't crazy. One way to teach calves to drink water from a bucket is to have it suck on your finger. I've done it to help wean calves off formula. A little udder. Oh, that's so cute. That is cute. That is a nice image
Starting point is 01:38:07 of like a little cow going, ooh, that makes sense. R Bracewell says, Elijah and Sydney love your show and you two have some major support in my area. Love the fact that you two take shots at each other
Starting point is 01:38:17 and it's all in fun. I see you and stand with you. I like that people notice, though, that you and I give each other mad SH. Can I say that, though, real fast? like that people notice, though, that you and I give each other mad SH. Can I say that, though, real fast? This is really important, Tim, because you're on ENT.
Starting point is 01:38:30 You've been in this industry for a very long time. People have stopped just talking and learning to be friends, especially publicly with people that you just don't agree with most things on. When you really get down to it, yes, Sydney and I agree on a lot of tenets of life, but down to the nitty-gritty, we disagree on about 70% of things.
Starting point is 01:38:47 Yeah, that's true. And yet we are very close and we are very good friends. And we're even able to start a new show together because the world has stopped understanding the beauty of hanging out with your friends where it's interesting. And it's not just like, she's not a yes woman. I'm not a yes man. We hang out together. And it's like your show is like that too. You have so many different kinds of people on here.
Starting point is 01:39:03 It's beautiful. It's simple. There is the cult and then regular people. hang out together. And it's like, your show's like that too. You have so many different kinds of people on here. It's beautiful. It's simple. There is the cult and then regular people. And regular people have always been able to be like, well, I disagree with you
Starting point is 01:39:10 what you say, but I defended the death of your right to say it or I disagree with you, but let's argue and debate these ideas. But you've had the growing cult faction in the US
Starting point is 01:39:17 that are like, you're an apostate or a non-believer and everything you say should be banned and those, they don't represent the actual
Starting point is 01:39:25 humans you know so if you look at uh there was a graph we showed several times showing where on this chart of like uh of economic uh conservatism and liberalism to social conservatism and liberalism you look at where trump's voters are and they were left and right on economics and mostly anti-woke you look at the Democrats and it was hyper-concentrated in communist woke. So you have the overarching American population of economic left and economic right and their agreements and disagreements as they've always traditionally been. And then you have this new emerging faction of cult-like dogma. So when people are like, why can't we get along anymore?
Starting point is 01:40:03 It's like, well, some people joined a cult and you can't communicate with them because they're in a cult. And that's true for some Trump supporters. But for the most part, the people who are in whatever this space is, be it atheist, agnostic, people who believe in God or people who are Christians and who are either conservative or libertarian or somewhat liberal, we all have conversations getting along just fine. Yeah. But the culty people are very difficult
Starting point is 01:40:25 to communicate with. You know, it's funny that you say that, though, and I don't mean to make this a Sydney moment, but to exactly what you're talking about, I was so scared
Starting point is 01:40:33 to admit publicly that I don't believe in God because a large faction of conservative, the conservative right, are very Christian and they think you're a heretic if you are an atheist.
Starting point is 01:40:43 If you're not even Catholic, they call me a heretic because I'm not Catholic. If you're not even Catholic, they call me a heretic because I'm not Catholic. Elijah would quietly try to out me on his show. He'd be like, Sir Sidney, you as a non-believer, and I'd be like, shut up. Because I was scared. I was like, I don't want to get attacked. I mean, it takes bravery to come out and say something
Starting point is 01:40:58 so brazenly stupid as 2 plus 2 is 5, but I'm proud of you. I'm just kidding. Jack Posobiec said I'm a part of the great apostasy. He's me he said i'm he's like i love you but you know you just you you support uh the great apostasy isn't that funny though how how it's like christians fight within themselves christians fight with atheists atheists fight with everyone i don't fight with anyone just by the way i'm out here just like i don't care just be nice to me okay buy me a ranch in montana yeah you're not.
Starting point is 01:41:25 You're just like, get out of my house. Let's read a little bit more. We got Hayden. He says, we need a constitutional amendment forcing employees to stop taking Social Security taxes and Medicare out of employee checks, forcing people to write a check to the government every year. Returns are only the government taking too much money from you. We need to wake people up.
Starting point is 01:41:41 I mean, that would be huge if at the end of the year, everyone then paid their tax or quarterly is actually how it really works. So most people don't understand that when you make a certain amount of money, you pay quarterly. You don't just hold all your money because then you get fined. You get interest. So imagine if every three months people were like, it's tax day. How much do I owe? Seriously?
Starting point is 01:41:59 Yeah. Then they'd vote against that in two seconds. Yes, they would. They'd see how much is coming. Because people don't see what's coming out of their paycheck. So they have no idea what they're paying in tax. And when you see how high that is.
Starting point is 01:42:08 I cry. We we we we we have a good one here. Some guy from Texas says, here's a list of all the things that will not kill you in Australia. One, some of the sheep. Oh, some of them. Some of them.
Starting point is 01:42:21 The rest of them are poisonous. They spit. They spit gas at you. Poisonous sheep. Yes, I know that. Rajesh says Australiansians are decent but inactive and unpolitical being an indian expat in australia born the uh jn the communist hellhole of corolla which by the way is one of the main source of woke expat professors in u.s universities australia is not bad because i can now afford this super chat hey appreciate, appreciate the super chat. Thank you. All right.
Starting point is 01:42:47 Let's see what we got here. Eric A. says, in regards to the Project Veritas video earlier, the High School News YouTube channel did a profile on the teacher from when he first got there three years ago. Really creeped me out given what we know now. Titled Tiger Talk Profiles Mr. Guipe. You guys see this thing from Veritas? Oh, yeah, where he was talking about how he's turning his students into revolutionaries. It was creepy. and but it's he's got the
Starting point is 01:43:08 anti-fascist mark no no but he said him do you sell that yeah but they said they said in the interview that uh multiple teachers at the school actually share the same sentiments and that they sort of discuss their creepy little revolutionary viewpoints the mao the mao picture is what did it for me on the wall how he is now overlooking the students you know is that real he said too that he had a student who was uncomfortable with the fact that he had the Antifa flag in his classroom and he said I'm doing this because I assume it'll be on the wall and he said you know basically uh if you have a problem with this and you're writing like a note at the end of semester you know basically complaining about it then there's actually something wrong with you student because your ideas are then antithetical to the you know values of antifa who the hell
Starting point is 01:43:49 says that to like a freaking 16 year old what is that these people who has an atomic what is that they make flags all right atomic ozzy says australia also has an anti-corruption department that is used to protect the politicians from investigations yes yes they also have this thing too um god what's it called um uh they call them fixated persons this is not related to the government but where they can basically institutionalize you um if you are like posting too much or too aggressively or writing too many letters to politicians saying hey i'm angry that you're doing you know this this and this yeah they have they call them fixated persons there's a fixated persons unit and they can institutionalize you this is what i'm saying go and look up psycho australian legislation i encourage every person to do it because there
Starting point is 01:44:30 is so much of it that infringes the rights of australians in ways that you cannot they don't really have rights by the way well we never will this is the thing is like i think it might have been you lid yeah you sent me yeah about how australia doesn't australia doesn't have a bill of rights and we don't. Yeah. It's common law. It's very bizarre because even our freedom of speech, and I've ranted about this before, is only implied in our Constitution. It's not explicit. So there's only five explicit rights in the Constitution.
Starting point is 01:44:54 Australia thought CPAC was an extreme right-wing meeting. So there's that. Yeah. CPAC. Wow. Mr. Obvious says, This was the best episode of Timcast by far. Hilarious and based i think
Starting point is 01:45:05 people should follow their dreams the worst thing that can happen is they fail the best thing that can happen is they succeed through hard work i think jordan peterson said in order to succeed you have to be willing to be a fool yeah yeah today he he shouted that out on instagram or something like that i would agree with that yeah how. Hard truth. How's he doing? He seems like he's doing okay. Really happy. He seems, he has been reflecting on how gracious people
Starting point is 01:45:29 have been to he and his family over the last six months. How could you hate the man? What a lovely dude. He honestly does seem like one of those people that would just,
Starting point is 01:45:37 is just like good-hearted. You don't meet too many of them. Yako Boyan's where we live in Texas. He's like that too. Yes. He's just a good, like when you meet him,
Starting point is 01:45:46 Kezia described this to me. She was like, you'll meet him and he's just got this energy about him and I don't really buy into that sort of stuff. But I met him and I was like, wow, I get it. He's a good dude. I think Lily Tang Williams is a little bit like that. Very, very special kind of person.
Starting point is 01:45:57 Like one in a million. Paul C says Sargon on his Lotus Eaters podcast did a fantastic segment with an Aussie political scientist explaining what's happening here. Titled, Australia has fallen. Highly recommended. Check it out.
Starting point is 01:46:09 We're big fans of Sargon and Lotus Eaters podcast. You guys should definitely check that segment out because I know I will. That sounds really interesting. I'd like to hear what they have to say.
Starting point is 01:46:16 All right, let's see. Joseph Flynn says, I wonder if there's any correlation between the dangerous wildlife and australians tendency to trust their government the group survives when they stand together so if someone disagrees they're viewed as public enemy safety in numbers yeah i mean don't touch the cone fish elijah don't step on the rock fish elijah yeah it's always there's always like that's no that's the rock, that's the rockfish, that's the stonefish. Wait till you see the pebblefish.
Starting point is 01:46:46 Pebblefish. It's a sting, it hurts, but you get over it quickly. There's a song by these comedians and it's like, they sing about all the things that can kill you in Australia and it talks about those.
Starting point is 01:46:56 Redback, fun aware, blue ring, octopus, yep. Anyway. Dorian Meredith says, I am Canadian and you could not pay me enough to make me move to the US. I love my country i am
Starting point is 01:47:05 100 happy here my biggest fear these days is that the junk happening in the u.s will bleed into here million dollars you got to live in minnesota northern minnesota just on the other side of the border million dollars what do you say i got a feeling the answer is gonna be yes yeah because you're like right there you know it's like you're just on the other side there's a video of like this like teenager and they're in some part of canada on the border where there's no border barrier at all it's just like just like a street barrier you know like steel block and it says like u.s canadian border and they're like jumping back and forth because there's areas like that all you gotta do is walk across and stand there for for for a couple decades a million dollars a couple decades a couple decades
Starting point is 01:47:44 but you can go hang out with your friends whenever you want right there just right to the board and you got a million bucks now. You can buy a cow. Stick your fingers in his mouth.
Starting point is 01:47:52 All right. Let's see what we got. Someone should draw this. A picture of you sticking your finger in a cow's mouth. Oh, please. That's a shirt.
Starting point is 01:47:57 And then we can put it on a shirt. I would actually wear that. We got to make that shirt. Don't try this at home it should say. Yeah. I'm down. Thank you for being smarter than me.
Starting point is 01:48:07 Alright, Canadian says, I have a ranch in Canada with cattle and horses. Sydney, green card marriage? Save me from communism. You get to play with cattle and horses. We'll keep Ian away from the calves. Love the show. No, you won't.
Starting point is 01:48:24 No, you won't. Ian will be hopping over the border that'll be the next thing so you guys think horses really feel the human like beating together with them you know they become like one when they ride together i just see it i saw a clip from black beauty alan coming being like and then when i realized we were beating as one i got even more invigorated and the horse is like flying you know and the guy's like riding that is a really nice sentiment from but from what i know about people who have had experience with horses they're exceedingly skittish and they don't really bond with humans so riding them is different than like actually bonding unless you have spirit stallion of the cimarron that's true that's a bit different
Starting point is 01:48:58 and then you have an indian boy riding you yeah it's beautiful what is that have you not seen spirit the best movie arguably the best soundtrack will you back me up on this best soundtrack no what is it great it's a movie about a horse who just who's he he's trying to find his herd i don't know it's called spirit spirit stein of the cimarron thank you unironically great all right let's see we got uh terese larfield says i have i live in a mining town in outback western australia lots of cashed up bogans in WA. I will add the tide is turning against the tyranny. Our premiere was like a rock star.
Starting point is 01:49:29 Not so much anymore. Interesting. Ben Macklin says, Western Australia classified gel blasters as prohibited weapons. BB guns that shoot gel-filled plastic balls because they resemble real guns. Yes. You can't buy some of the toy guns. You can't buy them because they look like real guns.
Starting point is 01:49:46 They always search my luggage so deeply with the Border Force whenever I go there. They always take me aside, and they just touch me. It's uncomfortable. Did you see China made it illegal? You can't play video games three hours a week now if you're under 18 in China? Yeah. Oh, didn't they also ban like- They're not banning fake guns.
Starting point is 01:50:02 Oh, sorry to interrupt you. Video guns. No, I interrupted you a video no i interrupted you actually i'm just rude today continue please put me in the bin whoa what happened we do you want to go shove me into it but you're talking about banning fake bb guns this is like banning digital no no you have to understand australia just bans everything just they ban enjoyment no fun for you yeah that's what i came for the humor cage they came for the humor because that's what that is.
Starting point is 01:50:25 Everybody has a sense of like we call it the clown pill, right? Slightly offensive people. Gavin says like once you stop laughing, then they win. I think other people just call it like the positivity face or whatever. But the whole point is that as long as you stay positive, as long as you are able to laugh at what's happening, they do not win over you. And so that's why they come for humor.
Starting point is 01:50:44 They come for enjoyment because as long as you you're still enjoying life despite what they do, you are still in control and you still have power. There was a Vietnam, I think he was a captain, a pilot, and he got shot down and taken prisoner of war at Hotel Hanoi, one of the infamous Vietnam POW camps. And it was just devastating for years they were there. And he would do exercises with his mouth to keep smiling and to keep the other prisoners happy. And he did do exercises with his mouth to keep smiling and to keep the other prisoners
Starting point is 01:51:05 happy. And he did. And they got through it. And that was a big part of it was staying, just doing the muscles so that you remember what it feels like to smile.
Starting point is 01:51:15 He would have to do that every day. Isn't it easier to smile than it is to frown? No, that's a fallacy. I looked it up. I read that on a meme, but apparently it's not true. I looked that up.
Starting point is 01:51:24 Fact check. The things that you hear. Tim's like, I want to read these. Stop poking me with stupid things. Dummy. I still can't get over the cow. Seth Booz says, Tim, as a regular viewer, I take exception to your comment on your earlier segment where you said, who wants to live in Colorado?
Starting point is 01:51:36 I love my guns, my mountains, just not the California implants. Yep. Much love and keep killing it. Yeah, the mountains are great. Colorado is awesome. Colorado is beautiful. Many, many, many people in Colorado are fit and active and they killing it. Yeah, the mountains are great. Colorado is awesome. Colorado is beautiful. Many, many, many people in Colorado are fit and active, and they take it very seriously.
Starting point is 01:51:50 Also a sexy place full of sexy people. Just the worst airport is Denver. Yeah, creepiest. Creepy. There's an underground military base there or something. Something like that. We don't know. Some old secret.
Starting point is 01:51:59 I thought that that was also a fallacy. It's weird. At the risk of this turning into like a um a matchmaking show we got so many super chats from people who are like now getting trying to buy me a ranch trying to buy a ranch and they're holding roses email let's see uh i was actually thinking elijah sorry to interrupt you tim i was thinking that we should just you know put your name in the hat day to sydney but then we can raise a bunch of money for our new show there you go as long as we get to build the studio of our show on that ranch and we don't
Starting point is 01:52:28 have to live in a city ever again. Yeah. You can just, I, I, I, I'm from LA. Like I moved from Hollywood into Texas and I thought Texas was like the
Starting point is 01:52:37 country for a second. And I'm like, man, I don't, I don't want to be within a few miles of another human being. I need to get out of, I need to get out of the city. Sorry,
Starting point is 01:52:42 Tim, we interrupted you. Well, I was going to read this guy who's pitching woo. All right, go ahead. Aaron Up says, Sydney, you're single, so I'm going to shoot my shot like the Fresh and Fit podcast. 29-year new
Starting point is 01:52:53 Braunfels, Texas. No cows yet, but I'm attractive with multiple revenue streams and a high IQ. How do I get a date? Email, email, email. What's your email? Brandon? What is it? BeSteelAtMercuryStudios.com would be her producer,
Starting point is 01:53:10 and he can filter that out and maybe set a date up for you. I will say it would be the greatest thing if like a year from now there's like a wedding. I would love that. We'd get married here on your compound. Oh, and they're right here, and you guys are, you know. And you can have other little atheist babies that are going to hell. People don't realize that. Hey, Elijah, there'll be a legion of us, then we'll take over i am the dark lord no people don't realize how tall i am so it's funny because like people who actually it's like six six ten
Starting point is 01:53:34 yeah i'm like six foot a hundred but people it's people come up to me you know they meet me out and they go oh and i watch them be like because they come up and they realize that i'm just this giant creature and they're like you know what just kidding i don't i don't have horse children you wear tall shoes no well yeah i like wearing high heels you know the weirdest the craziest thing about meeting you for the first time was not just that i assumed you were shorter was but but it was that your arms are really long i know and go past out here yeah like slenderman you go to your shins we're really gonna get her married on this show. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:54:07 That's the goal. Sydney is a giant with Slender Man arms. You know what? They're good. They're good for like wrapping around things. Aaron is going to get his date, and you're going to walk. He's going to be sitting there at the diner, and he's going to have like a flower and a drink, and he's going to be wearing a nice suit, and he's all chiseled and handsome.
Starting point is 01:54:21 You're going to walk in, and he's going to go, huh. She's like, I got this. She'll get the check and her arm was just way out. He's like, whoa. I take it from the waitress that she's walking over. Saves a step.
Starting point is 01:54:32 I love it. Really long fingers. No, but my fingers are long too. That's the thing. Yeah, you're getting a piano. They're so cool. So a friend of mine once said to me
Starting point is 01:54:40 that I have alien hands and I looked at them and I thought, no. And then I looked at them and I thought, oh yeah. For anyone, at them, and I thought, oh, yeah. Okay. For anyone, they're alien. Like those people who made the clones from Star Wars Episode II, they have those long
Starting point is 01:54:51 little hands. Yes, the little... And my nails are... This is the thing, too. Is that you in alien form? It is. I can't unsee it. I can't...
Starting point is 01:54:59 Where are the... Me, no, me, no, me, no. I was like, where are the troopers? All my nails are real as as well which freaks people out and they're like that's disgusting look look at the it's everything i'm just a long person were you always long um yes yes i was i mean i remember so i i was taller than most of the other kids in primary school and then when i got into i was probably at 16 i had a growth spurt and i came back and because my mom said to me you want want to be about 5'9". I said, that's a good height.
Starting point is 01:55:25 And I thought, that's a bit tall. That makes life quite challenging. And then I came back from doing an exchange trip in France and I was 5'11". I can't unsee now. That is me. I can't unsee. Let's get me an outfit.
Starting point is 01:55:41 Remember, these are the ones that made the clones. No, that does look like Sydney. It's alien me an outfit like that. Remember, these are the ones that made the clones. Oh, that does look like Sidney. We just need to get me some of those. It's alien Sidney. Oh, my gosh. I feel so bad. Someone's going to Photoshop my head onto one of those now. You know that, right?
Starting point is 01:55:53 Clone me harder, daddy. Clone me harder, daddy. John Curry says, Timothy, listen to Seamus Coughlin. He is a good man who will help lead you to the Lord. You know, we had to kick Seamus out. Yeah. Because he stole the show and changed to Shimcast. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:56:07 He tried to do some BS. Oh, he mutinied. Yeah. And all of a sudden, the graphic that says Timcast almost said Shimcast. It did. We were like fighting. And, you know, I was powerless to stop it. I'm kidding.
Starting point is 01:56:19 We love you, Seamus. It's a great show. We let it happen. Let's be real. All right. Let's see. We'll do a couple more because I really want to do the, there's a great show. We let it happen. Let's be real. All right. Let's see. We'll do a couple more because I really want to do the – there's a lot of questions about religion and rapture stuff. But we're going to have that for the member segment because it's going to be really, really fun.
Starting point is 01:56:34 Brendan Saltvik says, Tim, if you don't want a relationship with God in this life, why would you want a relationship with him for eternity? Oh, I'd love a relationship in that capacity. What I'm saying is like the idea of hell and eternal suffering for being wrong like not being a bad person just you know being confused or ignorant there's a lot of people i know who are confused and ignorant you know like sydney for instance and you know i try to be nice to her the most confused and ignorant confused and ignorant with sydney and tim that's actually that's actually a good idea for a good name for a show confused and ignorant. Gleefully catastrophic because we run off into the apocalypse.
Starting point is 01:57:09 Actually, that's a really good idea for a sketch where you get two regular people to talk about a very complex idea without any fact-checking or prep time or anything and see what they talk about. It would be like... Remember that smart bot chat AI? They had where you could talk to it online
Starting point is 01:57:24 and it started learning to be racist? Yep, immediately. And then like... Remember that smart bot chat AI? They had where you could talk to it online, and it started learning to be racist? Yep, immediately. Yeah. And then, like, because it just repeats back what people were saying. People were saying nasty stuff, but then they made it talk to each other,
Starting point is 01:57:34 and it created its own language. I think those were different AIs. One was they were seeding it with, like, racist Nazi stuff, and so the AI became racist. The other one was two AIs were talking to each other and they started
Starting point is 01:57:45 speaking a language at Facebook and they shut it down because they were like, what are they saying? That's awesome. Yeah, so that's what would happen.
Starting point is 01:57:52 You'd have someone like, you put these two random people and film them and then after a long enough period of time they probably have crazy theories no one's ever heard of
Starting point is 01:57:59 that make no sense because they're only getting limited information from each other. You know, that'd be great. Jake McGreal says, I have cows. baby calves will indeed suck on your finger a nipple on a calf bottle and a real teat is about the same size that's what he was saying so well you know it's funny as we all we all made fun of ian but he was right the whole time i guess the issue was you said it feels good well and i did say yeah i said an adult cow everyone super chat said they
Starting point is 01:58:22 were baby cows so i don't know if the adults are still down. It was the saying, it feels good part. That was indoctrinated. That's what sticks with me. You remember the way you feel, not what the things you heard often. Don't stick your hands in. I heard a human baby can bite your finger off. What?
Starting point is 01:58:37 They have no teeth. So who do you blame if they do that? Do you blame the baby? It's kind of like, do you blame the police officer? Who do you blame? The jaw strength of a human is is intense even in a baby and they could bite down and like i break your you know bite your finger off i'm very curious about that i do know that babies will hold on to your arm like a sloth if you hold them like that because it's it's to keep
Starting point is 01:58:57 them from falling so if they feel like they're falling and you're holding them against your arm they'll grab your arm really we should uh should test that. Test the theory. Does anybody have a baby we could borrow? Exactly. To borrow a small child. Borrow a baby. And a calf. All right. Amy Lamar says, after the rapture, those left will likely have one more chance, but they
Starting point is 01:59:15 will live under major persecution. God would not force someone to be with him if they don't want to be. Amen. Elijah. God bless. You know what I was thinking? You know, a good idea for like a short story or something. was thinking about where are all the people where are all the truck drivers where are all the the workers all the labor shortage and you know like why is the economy
Starting point is 01:59:33 getting worse why things you know why is there where are people are they just sitting in their houses not working what if they were raptured already and you're left behind but i would explain it that's why i'm still here yeah me too no but you're you're left behind. But I would explain it. That's why I'm still here. Yeah, me too. No, but you're a nice little Christian girl. I've never been friends with you. Do you think that? Yeah, that's where you messed up.
Starting point is 01:59:52 You messed up. Not literally, but it is a good question, I think. It's like, where are all the people? That's why Lydia's here too. Okay, so where are all the people? Where are they? They're at home. Is that like, that's insane.
Starting point is 02:00:01 People are quitting because what's happened is, well, that's a whole other story. But working has become less about providing and people have lost purpose. And so not only has work become about what's fulfilling and makes you feel good and it used to be about what provided for a family or how you could actually bring sustenance into your life. It's become so narcissistic and it's become so self-involved that people just don't find meaning in these jobs and they're not willing to do what what is qualified and also our college you know degrees don't help people anymore so they're lost i just think that it's a i talked to a guy recently who ran a train company this is crazy he ran a train i never who do you mean it's in logistics and trains and um he was telling me that you know that they're hiring truckers right now for 150 000 a year
Starting point is 02:00:42 which is good money and he was saying that people just don't want to work it because they don't want to subject themselves to being a trucker. And I don't mean that disrespectfully because it is a good job. But they have this pride complex. These young people are like, well, I'm not going to be a trucker. I'm going to be a YouTuber or whatever. And God knows those YouTubers, Tim. Man, I got to be honest. Like trucker would be a job I would do if I wasn't doing this.
Starting point is 02:01:02 No joke. I love road trips. It's pretty grueling though. Don't they do a lot of drugs though to, to stay afloat in the road? Like amphetamines? Yeah, yeah, yeah. To stay awake. I would imagine.
Starting point is 02:01:10 I've met only epic truckers. You cannot do any drugs as a trucker because they test you constantly. Yeah, I was like, I'm pretty sure you can't. And also, you have to be really careful drinking. Sugar. I love truck stops. Truckers. Truckers?
Starting point is 02:01:23 You ever went to Buc-ee's? I can't even speak English. Buc-ee's? Buc- to Buc-ee's? I can't even speak English. Buc-ee's? Buc-ee's? Yeah. You're going to be disrespecting your Texan followers. Buc-ee's is a truck stop. Like you said, they might have been raptured to maybe Heaven's Buc-ee's.
Starting point is 02:01:32 I've only had a truck stop a couple times. Buc-ee's is just the largest. They wouldn't call it a truck stop, but it really is. And it's the only place you can buy fresh brisket sandwiches and also possibly- Don't they have weird cheese things in there? Yeah, an electric scooter. It's basically Target meets Walmart meets truck stop. fresh brisket sandwiches and also like possibly don't have like weird cheese things yeah an electric scooter it's basically like target meets walmart meets truck stop and it's so big it has it has this like um a rat thing on the front this the like logo is a rat and they start at 17 an
Starting point is 02:01:57 hour at the cash register i think and then go up a little more it's 24 an hour and nobody this is what happened i know somebody who went there and they were like they were taking it was actually yaku boyans was taking a picture of the sign that said like starting at 17 an hour. And nobody, this is what happened. I know somebody who went there and they were like, they were taking, it was actually Yako Boyens was taking a picture of the sign that said like starting at $17 an hour for literally having F with it, talents or skills. You literally don't have nothing for a first job. And the guy at the cashier was like, don't take a picture of that. You wouldn't want to work here. It's horrible.
Starting point is 02:02:17 And it's like, bro, that's what first jobs are. They're all horrible and people don't want to work. That's what I'm saying. All right, let's do one more. Rips. Or what does it say? Rips Stikers? It says, whatever.
Starting point is 02:02:34 Tim always craps on college but fails to or willfully ignores the fact you can major in things like STEM. He acts like anybody can just teach themselves to be something like a chemical engineer. Well, no, I'm speaking generally about college because most people aren't going to become chemical engineers. Most regular people are like bouncing. I think half of all people will change their majors not knowing what they want to do. You get 18-year-olds who have no idea what life is because most of them never had a job. Then you tell them to take out massive amounts of debt, send them to college. They pick a random major.
Starting point is 02:03:00 That sounds fun. I always wanted to be a photographer, I guess. There's no prospects of a job in that capacity. They get out with massive debt and they're like, that sucked. So the way I see it is, I'll be quick on this. I used to, I was told over and over again when I was younger, you got to go to college. You have to, you know why? Because the story I heard was about how, you know, oh, the, the, you know, my, my friends who went to college were making six figures and you know, I didn't, who went to college were making six figures and, you know, I didn't, I just went into the workforce and I was making half that. That's why you got to go to college.
Starting point is 02:03:30 You can get a good job. And I'm like, yo, your generation didn't have the social pressures to go to college. Like you're putting on us. That means without that, an entire generation of boomers saying you have to go to college. The greatest generation was telling the boomers, do whatever you want to do. Have a family. The people who are passionate about being a chemical engineer said, if I want to be a chemical, if I want to be a chemical engineer, I got to go to college, went to college to pursue a passion, graduated and got the good job they were passionate about. Now you've got people saying blindly just go to college for who knows what, and they can't get
Starting point is 02:04:00 jobs and they're saddled with debt and they hate their lives. So what we need to bring back is telling people not to go to college because we need to treat it like starship troopers. Service guarantees citizenship, but it's not for you. You shouldn't do this. And we should be actively encouraging people every step of the way to drop out and quit. And then only those who truly want it will be like, no, this is for me and nothing will stand in my way.
Starting point is 02:04:23 And the people who are too weak or didn't want to do it in the first place will be like, at least I have no debt. So I think they have this backwards just like they had the self-esteem thing backwards because they looked at kids who were successful and they said, oh, they have high self-esteem. This means that kids who have high self-esteem will be successful. No, no, no, no, no. Successful children have high self-esteem because they are successful. People who went to college for a driving force ended up being successful because they had
Starting point is 02:04:48 something that they desperately wanted to do. People who drift into college because their parents told them to are not going to succeed or be fulfilled because they have it backwards.

Starting point is 02:05:39 interested even though obviously timcast is uh is much more elevated but sydney watson if you want some cool YouTube videos. But also, Elijah and I have a brand new show launching actually on the 9th of September. I'm never good at doing these things. Yeah, you're not. I'm not. Thanks for admitting it publicly.
Starting point is 02:05:55 At least we have that on the table. Well, Sydney Watson's creative and called her show Sydney Watson. Really good stuff right there. Yeah, I'm just... Yeah, and you can follow her everywhere. You can follow me as well, Elijah Schaefer. My show is called Slightly Offensive and it has been really
Starting point is 02:06:09 growing thanks to you guys are awesome and it's been an incredible time. So check it out. And this new show is called You Are Here. So essentially what it is is like, actually they originally wanted it at the same time as this show. And we said no. So essentially if you're someone this is a little bit of a later show for you or maybe you want more content, it's going to be as of right right now, tentatively 6 p.m. Central for one hour.
Starting point is 02:06:29 We don't get this whole two-hour fun nonsense stuff. But we're going to be going over things from the day on just culture, politics, and also just having a great time together in a really fancy-smancy, state-of-the-art studio, because apparently they thought that was a good idea to give us a whole crew and everything. It is a nice studio i mean if i think people actually like elijah my dynamic just because we are um we are male members to each other on a regular basis and we do have i guess a lot of discussions well we're actually friends and the key thing is we came up with the idea for the show like check this out because we were like we want to do a show together i want to talk about the world and it was like but where's the concept? So the concept was like, you know,
Starting point is 02:07:06 when you're a kid in like the nineties and you get lost in a mall and you're just looking for that, that map, the information so that you can, and you're looking at, you're still kind of confused, but there's a little doc that's like, you are here and you can kind of make sense of the world by,
Starting point is 02:07:21 by, by first thinking of where you are at in relation to the things around you and getting this idea of then finding where you want to go and you have to have this center point to know where you are and so it's kind of like just the center point daily of where we are and i think that's why it's like unfortunately it's almost kind of like dystopian like yeah you are here the only drawback is you can't look it up i don't think but if uh i think if you go to our instagram accounts if you go to any of our any of our youtubes you can't look it up, I don't think. But I think if you go to our Instagram accounts, there are – If you go to any of our YouTubes, you can find the page.
Starting point is 02:07:48 It's because they haven't given us our URL yet. Yeah, but you can go and click the bios in our Instagrams and go and subscribe. It means a lot to us. Our YouTube videos as well. All our YouTube videos is in our bios. Tim's getting mad, so we're going to stop shouting. I didn't do anything. I'm just sitting here.
Starting point is 02:07:59 It'll probably be in the bio of this video when it's relaunched too. There you go. I was honestly just thinking about video games. What game? Same, bro. Destiny? No. Yeah, Lydia. I was honestly just thinking about video games. What game? Same, bro. Destiny? No. Get out.
Starting point is 02:08:08 Hey, you only have three hours. You know what I just found out? I don't know if you guys are RPG gamers, but I just found out they freaking pushed back out of the new Horizon until next year, like February of next year. That's a good game. COVID. Such a good game. But they made Aloy in the new one.
Starting point is 02:08:23 She's like 45. Wow. She's not going to be jumping off of enough of stuff are you kidding me of course she will no she needs to see that one like slovenian lady who's been in the olympics for like 30 years they're injecting hydro gel into her joints i'm not being mean to 45 year old women trust me like you guys you know usually what kids by that point you're like super people but god i mean aloy in the in the og game is like climbing up bloody like giant structures and killing why are they bloody sorry and they're not bloody on the inside what comes out of all right all right hey are you are you are you getting paid by horizon no i just really like the game just such a bloody good game it's
Starting point is 02:09:02 such a good game sorry i'll stop is your. Is it your favorite game? No, my favorite game, honestly, is God of War, the 2018 one. I'm replaying it for like the fourth time. Yeah, it's so, because I love, boy, so good.
Starting point is 02:09:12 I haven't played either of them. Boy, come here. I'm coming. It's cute. We'll have to go deeper into that. Tim hates me so much. He hates me. I have a website.
Starting point is 02:09:21 Thanks for coming, everyone. Ian Crossland, you know you can follow me. And to clarify, your guys' show is going to be Monday through Friday. Yes. Monday through Friday live. Live.
Starting point is 02:09:28 Like this show. It's awesome. An hour before this show begins, and it's like an hour-long show. We should do an earlier hour on the show. We'll call it the free show. I'm kidding. Oh, my goodness. Elijah and I would just be like.
Starting point is 02:09:40 Yeah, well, we just decided because we were like, why don't we take back the internet and start, like, instead of it's like, hey, everyone's got to compete. Let's just give people more content to watch at times they want to watch it. And then also too, it's like at the end, you can finish watching and then go talk about cows getting – Things are stuck in their mouth. All right. Let's do that. IanCrossland.net.
