Starting point is 00:00:00 One of the latest documentaries, actually it's a fairly old documentary, but one of the documentaries getting a lot of attention right now is Ukraine on Fire. And there are a lot of people saying that the documentary has been removed by YouTube. That is not correct. It has been flagged by YouTube. But of course, this is making it pop up now on social media, generating a lot of buzz. People want to know what happened in Ukraine in 2014. This is a documentary by Oliver Stone that basically lays out a case for Western manipulation of the Ukrainian government, which is particularly interesting
Starting point is 00:00:28 and a narrative that is particularly bad for the West. So when you hear that it was banned, a lot of people, you know, their ears perk up.
Starting point is 00:00:35 We've got a couple stories, but truth be told, my friends, it is my birthday. So smash that like button and I've got to be completely honest, allergies, man.
Starting point is 00:00:45 Wow. I look out my window and I got to be completely honest. Allergies, man. Wow. I look out my window and I see all those little leaves are – Allergic to Women's Day. It's the day when all of the trees just like – And then it's just I wake up and it's like my lungs feel like they're full of pollen. And I was thinking like maybe I'm getting sick but I'm not sick. I feel like spry but it's just like, oh, man, just itchy eyes and like, oh, my lungs feel bad. I feel thinking, like, maybe I'm getting sick, but I'm not sick. I feel, like, spry, but it's just like, oh, man, just itchy eyes and, like, oh, my lungs feel bad. I feel you, dude.
Starting point is 00:01:09 Congested, and it's just so brutal. He sees a picture of a cat, and his eyes start watering. I'm the man of a million. Yeah, I saw them, like, you know, he looked at Bucko downstairs, and his eyes just popped out. I was like, oh, I got here. I saw those. I literally, before I came here, I took my inhaler just in case. I was in New York above the trees.
Starting point is 00:01:24 I lived on Cypress Hill. Someone knocked Ian's camera open. Oh, wait. I'm like, oh came here, I took my inhaler just in case. I was in New York above the trees. I lived on Cypress Hill. Someone knocked Ian's camera. Oh, I was like, oh, here's the UFO. All right, well, let's just get through this introduction real quick. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the latest episode of TimCast IRL. We are live for you in the tri-state area just outside of Washington, D.C. And joining us today to discuss a plethora of topics from culture and politics is the rapper with the latest hit single, Brian Stelter is a sex machine.
Starting point is 00:01:49 Ladies and gentlemen, Ryan Long. Yeah, you know what it is. I just want to give a shout out to all my fans. You know what it do, what it do. We out here in the Timcast studio. I just want to say that it was a little bit rude of Tim to have his birthday on the same day as International Women's Day. I thought that was a little bit selfish of you tim to have his birthday on the same day as international women's day i thought that was a little bit selfish of you it was yesterday his birthday or women's day women's
Starting point is 00:02:10 day for me i celebrate it for a week but hold on today's the day biggie died oh crap interesting you know what i say it's notorious W-O-M-X-N So that's my rapper I'm little woman What's the proper pronunciation of it? Wimixin Wimixin And for me what I would like to see happen
Starting point is 00:02:38 For Women's Day Is I think that they should make them eligible For the draft No they've worked hard. They deserve it. I would like to see Ukrainian women take up arms. They've been forcing them to flee, and I don't think that's right. I've got to stop you.
Starting point is 00:02:53 That is deeply offensive, this idea that women should just be eligible for the draft. Women should be in every combat role. Women can do the same thing as men can do. And when we talk about how we should have more female CEOs, we need more women in combat positions. In fact, I think every position could be filled by a woman. We need more female DOAs. DOAs?
Starting point is 00:03:13 Is that what it is? Combat Vets? Oh, yes. I could. We want that. POWs? Dead on Arrivals? Isn't that a term?
Starting point is 00:03:20 I think that's like a murder thing. I don't think you refer to somebody as a DOA. Oh, military posture. I don't know. Anybody? That's the thing. I don't think you refer to somebody as a DOA. Oh, military posture. I don't know. Anybody? That's the thing. I don't know if you all know this, but I have also in solidarity with Ukraine, one small decision that I've made is I've given Danny a one-month suspension from the boys' cast
Starting point is 00:03:41 because he's from Russia. Whoa, you're Russian? Well, no. My parents are actually from Ukraine. Get out. But they're Russian. Beat it, pal. I got it on both sides.
Starting point is 00:03:51 It's like the first... Oh, my gosh. So I got it on both sides because... Wait, wait, hold on. But your last name is Polish. No, so it's Polish Chuck, which is a Ukrainian last name.
Starting point is 00:03:58 So this is basically my whole life. Everybody thought I was Polish. And then I was like, I'm Russian. And then when I was 20, excuse me, I found out that my parents were like, no, my parents were like, we're actually from Ukraine because it was the Soviet Union. Look at him trying to cover that.
Starting point is 00:04:12 He switched up the borders. He's been telling everyone I'm Russian before and then all of a sudden he goes, I never saw this or that. No, no, no. But they are Russian. Wait, wait. So let's just, do you guys want to introduce yourselves? Yeah.

Starting point is 00:04:47 What's up, everybody? Ian Crossland. Slid over to the right a little bit. Got my floating UFO right here. Oh, because your camera's been knocked. Yeah. I think I did that, by the way. I think someone threw an elbow.
Starting point is 00:04:56 You did it on purpose. I think Trump slid him over to the right a little bit. I blame Trump. I usually blame Trump. Yeah, he does. All right. I love you, Donald. Yeah, I just wanted the UFO to be the star of the show.
Starting point is 00:05:07 Unfortunately, Ian got kicked out of the picture. Anyway, we got it fixed. But yeah, I'm also here pushing buttons at the corner. Love these guys. I'm excited for tonight.

And then I think we're just going to chill. We got a bunch of weird stories. There's this guy who punched a 77-year-old man in the
Starting point is 00:06:55 face because he said a racial slur to him. My stepdad. And now he's under house arrest. So it's an interesting cultural issue with race and stuff. I can't wait to find out whose side i'm on yeah right no exactly and then you have the the director of your amount the director of black panther uh he got they thought he was robbing a bank because he like walked in with a mask on and sunglasses and gave a note to the teller but we'll talk about this stuff just have a good time we're chilling some people were saying

And I'm like, this will be my day off hanging out with Ryan, Danny, Ian, Lydia. He's going to party like it's his birthday. I'm going to sit here and mostly just relax, and you guys can talk and entertain everybody. You'll just let the allergies take over your body. Oh, it's brutal, man. I took allergy medicine, and it worked for a little bit. Just sit down, put some headphones on, listen to the sweet sounds of Lindsey Graham telling you why we need to fight Russia.
Starting point is 00:07:43 That's right. We got Chicken City up. The only way that I chill. We got Chicken City up. Yeah, we did. What's Chicken City? Oh, the chickens. It's the live stream of the chickens. Like, we're streaming. I thought you were referring to Moscow. No, we have them and
Starting point is 00:07:57 you can watch the chickens, you know, do chicken stuff. We do, but because we have a dog and he dumps all over the lawn and my brother won't clean it up, it keeps the coyotes and the bears away. It's a win-win. It's like a lose-win.
Starting point is 00:08:12 It's like, dude, clean up. It seems like if you live in places where you have chicken coops, unless you're in the city or something. We had hawks at one point, but we built a mesh. Yeah, you've got to get them really solid in there, right? Well, we still have hawks. There point, but we built like a mesh. Yeah, you got to get them really solid in there, right? Well, we still have hawks.
Starting point is 00:08:26 There was like a hawk attack. You should get a sniper's nest that's just always watching them. The chickens? The chickens. Just 24-hour around the clock. You get 100, and then you sacrifice them, and then you start. Is that why you need a constant flow coming in?
Starting point is 00:08:44 Sacrific sacrificing to the youtube gods we have 56 of them incubating right now yeah 56 plus two babies should have got 69 69 that would have been cool let's let's talk about this ukraine stuff let's jump into the story we got this from washington examiner youtube flags oliver stone's latest ukraine documentary now i don't know when this came out there's a trailer for it's a 2016 documentary ukraine on fire by oliver stone they put this warning on it age trailer for it. It's a 2016 documentary, Ukraine on Fire by Oliver Stone. They put this warning on it, age restricting it. Now, there's a lot of tweets here.
Starting point is 00:09:08 We got this one from Rumble. They say, YouTube removed the documentary Ukraine on Fire. We believe the public should decide what it sees, not Google execs. We're proud to announce the producers uploaded the film to Rumble, enabling anyone who wishes to view it. Well, I don't think it's taken down, but they've also flagged trailers and people have started uploading this in mass to YouTube. So if you search for it now you can see like a bunch of new uploads of this documentary and it basically talks about there's like this uh weird
Starting point is 00:09:32 dry sand effect yeah there's like a leaked phone call of victoria newland talking about who the like the president of ukraine is going to be i think you were mentioning that right yeah yeah she was uh had had some pics on who she wanted to install and that it happened right is that what it was oh yeah i believe so the crazy thing is you guys see that story about like the bio labs and all that stuff yeah well we were talking about it before earlier uh before but yeah like she they were rubio was like grilling her and then she's like she kind of was sheepishly like um yeah we're worried about the the bio labs might fall in the hands of the Russians and they're like what was that if you go fall in the hands of the Russians. And they're like, what was that? If you go to the U.S. Embassy in Ukraine's actual.gov website,
Starting point is 00:10:13 it says the U.S. built two biolabs, level two, specifically for food safety and consumer protection. But then it talks about how they're researching pathogens and stuff. So I certainly think the idea – Just doing a bit of gain-of-function. How many – I don't know about that. That that that's the thing right so if russia comes out and they're like they're doing gain of function in ukraine i'm like that's how the fact checkers are able to dismiss this because what we all we know is that the website and the u.s government said like oh there's pathogens here it could just be like they're researching like they're they're
Starting point is 00:10:40 trying they claim it's the biological threat reduction program to make sure people don't get sick or something reducing botulism well that's a toxin i mean right or is it it's the biological threat reduction program to make sure people don't get sick or something. Reducing botulism. Well, that's a toxin, I mean, right? Or it's a fungus or something? How many biolabs does Ukraine have in America? 420. 420. 420.
Starting point is 00:10:58 Yeah. I have no idea. Yeah. Danny was just showing us some wild stuff before of the old videos of – Oh, yeah, Zelensky doing the Roman salute as a Nazi. Pretty crazy. Well, mostly joking about how he's like, we sure have a lot of Nazis here. And everybody's like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:14 Yeah, yeah. It's one of those. But then I thought even crazier. It's like, oh, you know, Obama's government, we're going to have to – we're going to join NATO. But obviously it's their puppet and everyone's like, it's funny because it's true. This is the Ukrainian president before he was president. Yeah. Back when he was just a comedian.
Starting point is 00:11:30 The conspiracy theory is that he's a comedian who played the Ukrainian president on a TV show. And so they asked him to actually do it because they knew that he could act. Right. Or he's like – Well, his approval – I mean it's not really a conspiracy theory. That's kind of what happened. But his approval rating's like, well, I mean, it's not really a conspiracy theory. That's kind of what happened, but his approval rating was like super low before this.
Starting point is 00:11:48 I was reading something like my, Oh, actually my mom was saying, but it's like less than 20%. How many people's approval rating right now is skyrocketing because of war talk. That's the secret ingredient. I know. It's legitimately.
Starting point is 00:12:03 Imagine you have a girlfriend and you guys hate each other and she's like you're the worst i'm gonna break up and then someone comes into the house and you have to fight them off and then and the movie always they you know what you you're not so bad i have now i realize why i loved you in the first place you know i'll let you in on a uh i was reading this thing and it said that you can that men can use fear to simulate attraction. So what you're saying is – Turn the lights off. No, no.
Starting point is 00:12:30 They say if you want to go on a date, bring them to a rickety bridge. Oh. Wow. Yeah, for real. Crack your knuckles a lot on a date. A first date. No, no. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:39 And don't tell her either. You think I'm joking? Tell the girl, hey, listen, I have a nice night planned for you, and sort of drive out to the middle of the forest, pretend the engine broke down. Have a stereo playing some squeaky sounds, find a knife, stuff like that. She can't be scared
Starting point is 00:12:53 of you. Is this blood on the hood? Crazy. Yes, are you scared? There was actually an article that claimed that. That if you bring them to a high location, like the observatory of the Sears Tower or something, observation deck, or you bring them to a high location Like the observatory Of like the Sears Tower Or something Observation deck Yeah
Starting point is 00:13:06 Or you like Bring them over to those bridges Where the floor is glass It'll make their hearts Beat faster and faster You want to trigger A flight response No for real
Starting point is 00:13:13 That's what they claimed Bring them out Into the middle of a lake On a canoe And then sort of Yeah so what's it going to be Well that's It's always sunny
Starting point is 00:13:22 The implication That's the Yeah the dentist Is that the dentist system No that wasn't the always sunny The implication That's the dentist What is it Yeah the dentist Is that a dentist system No that wasn't the dentist system The implication of the Yeah He was like
Starting point is 00:13:31 You bring him out on a boat To the middle of the lake Or the ocean And then you know Because of the implication They're like what implication What You know like
Starting point is 00:13:37 You're on a boat No but there's like I'll tell you this For that stuff I mean that's why You pay a guy To come you know Show up and be like Give me all your money and then you karate chop him off.
Starting point is 00:13:48 Or you're like – if you're dating a blind chick, you can just – you can do the whole thing yourself. Yeah, exactly. You can be like, I'm generally dating a blind chick. But the crazy thing about this idea is like imagine this. Like you're making a joke about how some dude might bring a woman out to the middle of nowhere on a rickety bridge because he's trying to manipulate her. But think about a guy who's dumb enough to actually do that and it works out and he has no idea what's going on. You know what I mean? Yeah, he doesn't put two and two together like why that worked.
Starting point is 00:14:13 He just goes, yeah. So then it works out for him and then he ends up marrying this woman and then there's the dude who's like, I planned that and y'all hate me for it. So if you're conscious of what you're doing to manipulate, you're a really bad person. Everything's gross well i mean everything that's like a human rule that you're saying the same as um when you watch cuteness or any sort of thing like that as soon as you know like when you're watching a baby being cute it's okay but then as soon as someone's doing it on purpose where you go i know it's cute when i kind of do this and they always do it it's like oh it's gross test that Someone get me a pacifier.
Starting point is 00:14:45 No, nope, not cute. That wouldn't be cute if you did it on accident. Well, anything conscious is far more disgusting. True. Yeah. I was just looking up oxytocin. It looks like oxytocin is not only the love chemical, but also can make people feel extreme negative feelings too.
Starting point is 00:15:02 This is from the Huffington Post. I don't know how much research has been done into this. How many posts? Probably none. Maybe this is part of why putting people in scary situations. What does the Huffington Post think about Tim's date plan of bringing them into the middle of the forest? That's a pretty good date plan. No, no, the dentist system.
Starting point is 00:15:18 To get them dripping. Hold on. How about this one? You bring him into the house and then you say you have to go to the bathroom and then you run out to the car and come back in a scream mask.
Starting point is 00:15:31 Yes. And you sort of, you go, and then you sort of. The actual idea was to bring him to a scary movie. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:37 You know, it was like, invite him in a day and then bring him to the movies and go see a horror film. Oh, yeah, or turn up
Starting point is 00:15:42 if you want to dial up. That would be a good point in the 70s. Yeah, right? That's boring now. Yeah, now you got to do it like Michael Jackson did in Thriller and like be a horror film. Or turn up if you want to dial up. That would be a good plan in the 70s. Yeah, right? That's boring. Now you've got to do it like Michael Jackson did in Thriller and be a werewolf. Actually threaten and scare them. Like augmented reality glasses?
Starting point is 00:15:53 No, I'm kidding. Or hire a team of hackers to do cyber warfare on your bank accounts while you're there. Can you imagine that if some guy maybe this is a good skit or a bit. A guy hires, like, ten people, and he tries convincing his date that he's a special agent. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:11 And it's like the Russians have come for him because he's got information about the war or something. You have your keyboards, and she goes, those aren't hooked up to anyone. He goes, shh, they're new style keyboards. No, all your boys, like, right when the check comes, all the guys come. They go, we've got to go. He's got to go. No, you're, like, fighting people. You, like, fight your way out of this restaurant. And then you're like, quick, all the guys come. They go, we got to go. We got to go. No, you're like fighting people. You're like fight your way out of this restaurant.
Starting point is 00:16:28 And then you're like, quick, get in the car. If you want to live, you'll come with me. And she like screams and punches you in the balls. In the trunk, yeah. You get in the trunk. That's the Tinder swindler too. Tinder swindler? Wasn't that guy just like –
Starting point is 00:16:39 So if you're listening and you're looking for dating tips – Hey, Ryan. Pop him in the trunk. Oh, jeez. What? The what? I said, Ryan. Pop him in the trunk. Oh, jeez. What? The what? I said, Ryan, you got him all day. The Tinder swindler?
Starting point is 00:16:51 I don't know if you heard, but I swindled the Tinder swindler. Did you? Who? Well, he does cameos and it's 300 bucks, but it's like a thousand bucks if you want it for promotional purposes. But then I weaseled my not promotional purposes one. But you actually hired him? I got him to call me. He goes, congrats on your special.
Starting point is 00:17:06 And he goes, do not like, well, that's been my favorite thing with the Tinder swindler is that he, his whole thing was to his girlfriend.
Starting point is 00:17:13 It's always goes, my enemies are after me, right? Yeah. So I've been loving saying that to everyone, like my chick or whatever. It's like,
Starting point is 00:17:19 baby, oh, you have to get the food. My enemies are after me. You don't understand. I can't be home by 10. My enemies are after me. So you could be, you could be definitely saying that like oh hey the stream was late but you know our enemies are after us over here this is the first yeah we got
Starting point is 00:17:33 but but like while the show's going and we're like oh i guess we sorry we charged you double for the the premium content this week our enemies are how many how times do you need to be swatted before they show up? You go, just grab a seat. Let's interview you. We're going to have food waiting for them. No, yeah. Actually, it was like, should we just get a thing of donuts? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:54 Some people were like, maybe donuts is just too offensive. Throw them at the cops. That's like too sugary. They're like beef jerky, I think. Or just a coffee cake. Something that's sealed so they're not like, what's in this? Poison me. Homemade cheesecake. There you go. I think yeah or or you know just a coffee cake yeah something like sealed so they're not like what's in this homemade Cheesecake well this is the first I've heard the tinder tinder swindler.

And the thing is the movie had three women in it, which means there were 50 that didn't want to come forward. So how do you fall for this stuff? Well, that's how you get get them you get them scared that all their money's gone and then boom you're in what's the ball the main way she's scared we've been through this it's instead of bringing them out to the bridge you bring them out to a metaphorical bridge where their money is all disappearing right well he tricked them into thinking he was a
Starting point is 00:19:04 billionaire that was the big thing is like these girls the first date he'd be like oh you know what maybe at the airport and then go fly on a private jet to switzerland for a night at a hotel but that's still expensive yes because it was a ponzi scheme that was being funded by all the other women who were paying for this one thing and then she would now be paying for him to do this to somebody else but were these women rich or something? No, but he just knew so many of them. He was sort of involved in the thing too where he would get the girls. For example, he would write them fake employment letters for his fake company so then they can now go get their lines of credits extended. He was pretty involved in the procedure.
Starting point is 00:19:39 He had it down to pretty decent science. And these women didn't know what they were doing. It wasn't that. It's like, I mean, you got some cash like if people were like hey can you lend me a thousand bucks obviously i'm good for it why would anyone believe that you wouldn't be right especially if they kind of have oh if i asked someone for money no if they asked you for yeah if you asked yeah yeah like if you asked me for a decent amount of money like i would like you got my enemies are after me but i wouldn't think anything of it really right can i have 400 bucks right yeah you

Starting point is 00:20:25 Yeah. I actually just got him to give me $400. What he doesn't realize is that I just put the terms at 50% interest per minute. The juice is running. Oh, I'll take my 500 back if you want. If you'd like to close up the loan. If not, you can keep paying the interest. I never signed it.

Are they worth less than a quarter? A quarter of metal? If they're made of cotton, is the cotton worth less? A dollar bill. Is it worth less than a quarter? Because the of metal? If they're made of cotton, is the cotton worth less? A dollar bill, is it worth less than a quarter?
Starting point is 00:21:07 Because the quarter is made of metal? Like real value. Oh, the actual melt. Yeah, there's worth. Well, hold on. I don't know, though. You can wipe your ass with money. That's true.
Starting point is 00:21:15 Are there nickels that are made of nickel? Do you see how much nickel went into it? No, well, in Venezuela. So in Venezuela, it's funny when people say things like in Weimar, Germany, they were shuffling money into the drains and stuff. And I'm like, it's funny when people say things like in Weimar, Germany, they were shuffling money into like the drains and stuff. And I'm like, that's toilet paper, man. Yeah. Like you think I'm kidding.
Starting point is 00:21:30 I'm not kidding. Yeah. You're going to go buy toilet paper. Legitimately, my dad, I was talking to him the other day. Doesn't use toilet paper. In Russia. I said something about the ruble. And then he was like, yeah, the only use for the ruble is if you need wallpaper right now.
Starting point is 00:21:43 Oh, wow. Wallpaper. Or toilet paper wallpaper. But I'm thinking like in Venezuela, they throw the money in the trash. I guess you wouldn't want to take that really filthy money and put it on your hole. You know what I mean? Because you get sick or something. This says that a nickel is 75% copper and 25% nickel.
Starting point is 00:22:00 I mean, that's a little misleading to call it nickel if it's copper. I think they used to be nickel, but then I think the price of nickel. nickel but nickel i don't know if you saw what happened this week with all the war stuff and all the nickel comes from russia or like a huge amount and then it was like all these like commodity companies basically are i've gone like bankrupt because nickel i think it went up 100 in a day two days in a row wow i should have bought nickels yeah and then the the exchange canceled a lot of the orders. They straight up canceled them. They're like –
Starting point is 00:22:28 Wasn't it – but it's not really nickel. It was silver, right? Nickel is copper. 75% copper. I mean originally like when they were – when the nickels were in circulation. Yeah, yeah. Originally like the – like I know like the dimes and stuff. I don't know if in America but probably.
Starting point is 00:22:41 But they were literally silver. You can buy bags of loose change that's measured in silver weight, not denomination. So if you go to these metal websites, you get a bag of pre-1960s coins, whatever, it's all silver. Dude, the price of nickels doubled in the last week. It went from 0.8, I don't know how to measure this, but it's doubled. It's not precious metals, they're all going up because Russia produces a ton a ton of them if your net wealth is a nickel you just doubled your net wealth but there's a lot there's a lot of one wasn't sitting there banking one day but there's a lot
Starting point is 00:23:13 of nickel producers who were like i guess they had hedged their production and then this is like essentially because this is such an unnatural like movement in the price that it was like a bunch of them got bankrupted. Like they essentially just like – I don't know the exact thing. But so then they had to – there's companies like bailing them out now because you can't just like take this nickel production offline. Jeez. Whoa.
Starting point is 00:23:36 Isn't it? March 2nd. I mean that must have been when the war was – or when Putin went in, right? Nickels are worth more. Than dimes? No, than themselves. I mean pennies are worth more than a penny, but? Nickels are worth more. Than dimes? No, than themselves. I mean, pennies are worth more than a penny, but it's illegal to melt them. Well, I think pennies are zinc or something.
Starting point is 00:23:51 Yeah, but like the inflation is so rapid now. I just Googled it. This could be outdated, but it says Jefferson Westward Journey Nickels 2004-2005. 75% copper. Their value is 6.7 cents. Yeah. So that means- Inflation was so high, I just gave you 400 bucks and you just gave
Starting point is 00:24:06 me back 300 bucks. Dude, look at the cost of nickel over the last 10 years. It's sitting here at 0.5 for 10 years. And then it goes completely up. I was reading some articles today that were telling you that inflation is actually pretty good and it mostly
Starting point is 00:24:22 only hurts rich people. I saw that too. That's exciting. Those are my favorite takes. Yes. I love those takes. Actually, it's bad for only rich people. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what's funny?
Starting point is 00:24:33 Because I would even say as – like when people talk about the gas prices and this, like you know how Stephen Colbert was kind of out there being like – I don't know if you talked about this, but Stephen Colbert's take was like – What do we care if it's higher right but i would agree i don't see you know normal fluctuations like i wouldn't you know make much changes based on gas prices and i'm not but for someone uh for anyone to say that like inflation and that affects exclusively rich people you go it takes a lot of mental gymnastics to get there. Well, look, I can absolutely respect that regular people are impacted.
Starting point is 00:25:09 But to Colbert's defense, people like us, it's very difficult for us to track the cost of gas because when we ask Winston to go fill up our cool vats, we don't actually see the gas station prices. And so he comes back and it's taken care of, and then we have a financial guy who takes care of all the expenses. As you drive by, you go, Winston, what do those numbers on that sign mean? Well, that's what I say.
Starting point is 00:25:29 I go, can you get me a bag or a cup of gas or whatever? Winston's like, blah, blah, blah, something, something. Yeah, how much is this? Yeah, I go, cup of gas. How much do you need? A couple grand? What's it going to cost? And then he's, no, but like Winston walks up and you're like, what do you need to fill up the car?
Starting point is 00:25:44 Like $2,000, $3,000? He goes, $100. He goes, only $100. You hand him a $100 bill and you don't realize that for a regular person. He goes, it's eight gallon or whatever. I go, 100 gallon? Is that high or is that low? 100 gallon.
Starting point is 00:25:55 Is that low? Is it low? Yeah, it's low. Let's talk about this weird story because it's just – I don't know, whatever. Oh, yeah. LME forced to halt nickel trading. Cancel deals after prices top $100,000. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:08 Hoard your nickels because they're 25% nickel. The London Metal Exchange forced to halt nickel trading. The LME's shock move came as Western sanctions threatened supply from- London Metal Exchange. Russia produces the nickel, I guess. In the 1990s, a rogue Sumitomo trader tried to corner the copper market and tin trading was stopped for five
Starting point is 00:26:29 years in the 80s. So right now, with the price of nickel being as high as they say, the actual number, here we go, $2,250 a ton of nickels. Do the math on the nickels you have in your piggy bank. They're 25% nickel.
Starting point is 00:26:45 Got a lot of money. Says they're $17 a pound nickel. Whoa. So divide 17 by 4 into a pound of nickels. Maybe you'll have more money. I don't know. Maybe not. But the copper in a nickel is already worth more. Yeah. But more importantly, they need them for electric batteries. Right, right, right.
Starting point is 00:27:01 So a nickel's got to be worth 10 cents right now, right? Might be, but it's illegal to do anything about that. Right. Why do you think, because Canada got rid of the penny. When did Canada get rid of the penny? Five years ago? It's still crazy to me that there's pennies in America. Yeah, it is weird.
Starting point is 00:27:16 With the fact that nothing... I know, but there must be... It makes no sense. How much money in pennies is there? Here's the issue. You could probably find a way to scheme money by using rounding up and rounding down. And I legitimately mean this. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:27:35 That's office space you're referring to. Yeah, basically. Yeah, yeah. Like if you go to a store and you buy something and it's like $1.24, you save the four cents. Then you sell it for $1.25. You get an extra dime on top. Right, but – No, it rounds up.
Starting point is 00:27:51 It rounds up to $1.25 and $1.22 would be $1.20. $1.24 rounds up to $1.25. Yeah. Oh, okay. Either way. But I'll tell you this. But that rounding is done – like you know which way. If it comes to $1.22, you win sometimes.
Starting point is 00:28:03 You lose sometimes. You know what I'm saying? You could plan it you could so you could do a deal with a company where you're like i'm gonna buy at 122 and save two cents but you're not gonna send you're only gonna save two cents per order you have to buy each one individual like what like let's say see what yeah you go i'm gonna buy 10 000 things it's like yeah and you save that'd be the best negotiation. You go, ha, ha. They go, yeah, it's not that way. You build an automated system.
Starting point is 00:28:26 Yeah. And you can office space it. Yeah, literally. Kind of. Shaving pennies. But also people can tell. For example, if you add the products together with the prices, do the thing and you go, but my system rounds it down when it should have rounded up.
Starting point is 00:28:43 It's like, well, then by that logic, yeah, I could also just change the price to, you know, scam an extra buck from people while I'm lying. Like at that point, you're just stealing from people.
Starting point is 00:28:52 So you're saying ban the penny? Yeah, I think they should get rid of the penny. But then what happens to all the pennies everybody's got? Well, I don't know. Ask what Canada did with them.
Starting point is 00:29:00 Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, I think they have them all, they have them all at penny gumball machines. Yeah. I don't know know the only real people who would lose out is those penny flattening machines yeah oh yeah whoever runs those businesses would be now no i i've seen some of those now that you know for those aren't familiar you put a penny and then 50 cents you crank it yeah now you just put 50 cents in and it drop a token comes down and you crank and it smashes a token oh i did some math you need 1440 nickels to get $4 worth of nickels in nickel.
Starting point is 00:29:29 Okay. If you wanted to melt down and get a 25, I don't know what that means. 1,440 nickels to get about $4.50 worth of nickels. So what's that, $70? But hold on. Do the nickel and the copper. Give me a piece of paper.
Starting point is 00:29:41 And then do it by like 100 nickels. You know what I mean? Yeah. No. 100 nickels. So that's I mean? Like 100 nickels. So that's – you've got 75% of that is copper. 25% of that is nickel. So how much does a nickel weigh?
Starting point is 00:29:53 How much – Yeah, you have 91 nickels in a pound. 91 nickels in a pound. And that's a fourth of a pound of nickel. So you would have 360 nickels in a pound of nickel. I didn't know this was going to be on the test. I know. I wasn't ready for this. I didn't know this was going to be on the test. I know. I wasn't ready for this.
Starting point is 00:30:05 I didn't think we were going to talk about metal prices. Danny came in and he was like, let's talk about the London Metal Exchange. The price of nickel has gone up recently. There's a lot of crazy effects of this war. It's true. Crypto solves this conversation ever happening again. There's no pennies in crypto. There's just a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a penny.
Starting point is 00:30:24 Yeah, that's better. I don't know what the math is there. Yeah, but look at it this way. If a Satoshi, the smallest form of a Bitcoin or fraction, was worth one cent, one Bitcoin would be a million dollars. Yeah. So that's what I'm saying. And then in the future, people are going to go, we need to get rid of these stupid Satoshis.
Starting point is 00:30:42 Nobody uses them for anything. But you would because it would just be like like that's 3,000 Satoshis. Yeah, it would just be on a ledger. And then everyone's going to – I think Bitcoin is the currency of the future. I think the World Economic Forum type people, they love it. And I'll tell you this too. Did you see that they just – yeah, we were just talking about it. Well, I went to Davos in – I think it was 2017.
Starting point is 00:31:04 Maybe it was 2017. Maybe it was 2017. And the whole thing was crypto. Like the whole event. Like obviously the World Economic Forum itself, which is security and high profile. We're talking about a lot of things. But the peripheral events they do because people – what happens is when the powerful elites meet, roaches – Like right now. Are they meeting?
Starting point is 00:31:23 Yeah, in this room. No, I think it's – yes, us. It was so diabolical. We're talking about getting rid of the penny. I know. roaches you know like right now yeah are they are they meeting yeah in this room no yes us no so diabolical we're talking about getting rid of the penny this is how it happens behind closed doors when you when you have like a thousand millionaires and billionaires all meeting at this privileged event then you get a whole bunch of people worth a couple hundred k trying to push their businesses who show up at the base of the mountain like they're in the mountain yeah and then they they put on events but they're they're connected their friends their family they're just not as high up yeah and and so when i went there the whole thing like almost every business was
Starting point is 00:31:51 like pitching crypto and they're like this is the future they were like government officials and family members i was meeting like i was meeting like presidential families and they were like bitcoin's the future i'm telling you and i've been telling people i'm like i think i think the world economic forum davos elites the global, they want Bitcoin to take over. Now Joe Biden has just instructed – they're saying you have to investigate a digital dollar or whatever. So there you go. It's coming. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:13 Either – there's half. There's one where it's they want it and then there's the other version where you realize you can't compete with it and this is happening whether you control it or not. Yeah, I think – so some people have said like... Can't beat them, join them situation. Can't beat them, join them, and then take it over. But if they do a digital dollar, they tokenize it, it's going to have to be on what? The Ethereum network?
Starting point is 00:32:35 Or are they going to have to make their own version of Ethereum? I don't think they're going to make their own blockchain. Yeah, I think the idea is to make their own blockchain. I mean, or essentially nationalize the blockchain. Or have no blockchain, which is even scarier. It's just another ledger that they control and have well isn't that essentially just the bank at this point right yeah so so something interesting happened i i we had to buy a vehicle for uh for the company to pull the rvs we got it we got a ram truck and i bought it through a bank and uh they don't let you come in and buy it outright many of these places so you
Starting point is 00:33:04 have to finance and they said but if you finance it and buy it outright, many of these places. So you have to finance. And they said, but if you finance it, you can literally pay off the bill tomorrow and there's no fees or anything like that. You just – it's done. But we won't do it personally. Why? Because they don't want to take the risk. If I say like here's a check for $50,000, they're going to be like, and then what happens if it bounces? We don't want to deal with that.
Starting point is 00:33:22 Have the bank pay it and then you pay the bank back. Have the bank take the risk. So this is what we do right and then like two days later when i get the bill like i get the notification for online i pay the whole thing off and then two or three months later i get a phone call from this bank and i ignore it because i'm like i got no business with them another day goes by i get a phone call another day goes by and then finally i get a voicemail and i check it and they're threatening to repo the truck which i own outright and paid for in full. And when they go through, they lost the transfer. They lost the transaction.
Starting point is 00:33:49 So I called, they were like, we don't have any transactions from you. Like you owe us the full amount. And I was like, I went to my bank and I did everything. I was like, I went to your website. I filled out everything as you expect me to fill out. My bank debited the cash. And so I called my bank and they were like, money's gone.
Starting point is 00:34:02 And then I was like, where did the money go? And they're like, sir, do you know how banking works and i was just like yes and they're like right on our end we wrote in our ledger the money is gone and this account now has the money which means they now have to deal with it because we've subtracted it from your account so like the money's just gone and like it's gone and then i called the other bank and they were like we have no record and we have not updated your account. I'd be going postal right now if this is me. Blink Financier scammed me out of $1,000 and I was ready to burn the place to the ground.
Starting point is 00:34:32 I was so mad. Well, so I tweeted at them and then everything got better. It's funny how – Yeah. You have to these days. But that is so messed up. What did you tweet at them? The bank?
Starting point is 00:34:43 They stole my money. What bank? I'm not going to say it here. You already did, I thought. I didn you tweet at them? The bank? They stole my money. What bank? I'm not going to say it here. You already did, I thought. I didn't say the name of the bank. Okay. But it's a large bank. And they said –
Starting point is 00:34:53 Did you tell them? Like, listen, by the way, the tweeting is about to start. This is your first warning. I was like – You don't fix this. I'm going to tweet, so help me. And they were like – Is this a sample tweet?
Starting point is 00:35:01 And then they were just like, tweet ahead, sir. Go ahead and tweet, sir. What are you going to do about it? And then I went to my million followers on Twitter. I was like, this bank is stupid. And they were like – Is this a sample tweet? And then they were just like, tweet ahead, sir. Go ahead and tweet, sir. What are you going to do about it? And then I went to my million followers on Twitter. I was like, this bank is stupid. And they called me back like, I am so sorry. Oh. I told Blink Fitness I was about to tweet.
Starting point is 00:35:14 And they said – That's it. They said, we saw it. We didn't care about – the tweet didn't matter, but we did see the pythons in the photo. And we don't want to be messing with those. But here, Let me clarify in all seriousness. I did tell them on the phone. I'm like,
Starting point is 00:35:29 guys, I went on your website. I sent you this money. My bank took it from me. It's not here. Stealing from me. You lost it. You figure it out. And they were like, no, we won't. And then I said, then my only recourse is what? To sue you? Okay, here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to tweet about it. I'm going to talk about it.
Starting point is 00:35:46 It's going to be my number one topic. And they said, fine, by all means. I think we did mention it briefly. I tweeted about it. And then all of a sudden I get emails saying like, oh, we're so sorry about this problem. We're going to rectify it for you. And then what ended up happening was I pulled up the information from my bank and sent them. I don't want to do this.
Starting point is 00:36:02 I'm like, why am I sending you my statement? Yeah, I don't want to do a bunch of work because you screwed something up. It's not that. It's like I don't want to send strangers my bank and sent them like i don't want to do this i'm like why am i sending you my statement yeah i don't want to do a bunch of work because you screwed it's not that it's like i don't want to send strangers my bank account information it's got more than just that one transaction but you know we're doing business i've got a bunch of other transactions and people expect privacy so what am i going to do i'm going to just screen grab the one bar saying the money went through and they're like yeah i'm like okay fine but anyway i'll tell you this here's what really bothers me about our modern society is that yes yes, my friends, I can tweet and these companies bend over backwards for me. You can, yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:29 Right. That's screwed up. I was flying on American Airlines once. Jordan Peterson was getting mad at Microsoft the other day. And it works. I flew on American Airlines. There was a storm. We didn't know what was going on.
Starting point is 00:36:40 We landed in Texas. Everybody was delayed. I tweeted, what's going on with this? And I immediately get a message like, we're going to take care of you skip the counter go right to this guy and they were like we got you booked already and then i'm watching like you know 500 people waiting in line all angry their flights are delayed but this is a problem because it's creating this i i don't like the classism the elitism where if you if this is why you get virtue signaling you get the influencer deal People know that if they have followers, they can bully people with influence.
Starting point is 00:37:08 Stakeholder capitalism. That's right. And it's creepy. It shouldn't be that way. It is a little creepy where I go, okay, I'm getting screwed over by this car company or gym or whatever. In my case, Blink Fitness. Did you resolve it by tweeting that? I'm currently resolving it on the Timcast right now.
Starting point is 00:37:24 Well, you've been talking about this for a while. I've resolved it, but I never got my money back. What are they charging? I'm currently... My war is over. My war is just beginning. See those swords in the background? As much as I hate the empire or dislike being it,
Starting point is 00:37:43 the FDIC insurance is like if your bank account screws you, if your bank screws you, you can get the money back. But once that's gone, if that's not there, it's the wild west. It's worse than that because that was what everyone says with these things. They go, yeah, just get the money back. But what they do is they have your account on pause for a year or two years instead of canceling when you try to cancel. Then they open it up two years later and just start charging you. Then because...
Starting point is 00:38:08 Blink Fitness is the name. Yeah. And because of that, most people's credit cards have changed a couple years or at least, you know, whatever percentage if you change every six years
Starting point is 00:38:17 and 30% of people every two years would have a new credit card. So you can't call your bank because they just have you owe us money and it didn't go through and then they go, it's going to collections. So you can't call your bank because they just have UOS money and it didn't go through. And then they go, it's going to collections.
Starting point is 00:38:26 So you can't call your bank because it didn't actually go through. Why don't you send them an invoice? Send them an invoice for what? Do the same thing back. Well, I can't send it to collections now. Yeah, you can. I see what you're saying. You literally could.
Starting point is 00:38:39 But wouldn't collections go, I go, the bank owes me $600. Imagine collections goes, yo, yo, yo. I go, for what? Didn't you ever hear the story? Pain and suffering. There was a dude. I can't remember exactly what happened. This seems like a lot of work.
Starting point is 00:38:52 This dude had a thing happen where the bank accidentally filed a claim against his house when he had paid it off. And so he sued them back and won like $1,200 and they refused to pay it. He showed up with the sheriff and they went inside and started taking the bank stuff. That's so funny. Love it. I mean, look, I'll be honest. It is really hard to use the systems the way the corporations – Impossible.
Starting point is 00:39:17 It's not impossible. And you know what else is – But it's hard. It's hard. And it has to essentially be a passion project because you're going to spend a week of your life to save a few hundred bucks most of the time. Depending on how you have it set up. It legitimately has to be your hobby. Yeah, well, you got super screwed
Starting point is 00:39:29 because of the whole wrong credit card because normally I just said to you, I go, just call your credit card company. It's part of their business model. It's two years later, but the point remains, it is true. The only way to get anything done is to exert influence
Starting point is 00:39:42 because as soon as that happens, you go, okay, so you are able to deal with this don't know why you go laura loomer style and just go outside a blink headquarters literally just sandwich board just a sandwich board and i actually still that would be really funny no first of all that'd be the opposite of this guy if i handcuffed myself to the to the stair master this guy's got himself handcuffed to the donut tray. I go, I'm not leaving until I get my money back. I'm at the Dunkin' Donuts. I ain't leaving until you give me another chocolate dozen.
Starting point is 00:40:17 No, that would be funny if you showed up at the Blink Fitness with a sandwich board and you're protesting. That would be pretty funny. Give me my money back. Well, that's the thing where it's always, all you can do is go in and sort of yell at the employees that have nothing to do with the scam. No, I'll say the Blink Fitness, they're not helpful. They're in on it? They're getting a taste of that.
Starting point is 00:40:37 They're not helpful. They're getting a taste? You made a good point. Social pressure is the way or one of the ways, and that's what Antifa's been doing and BLM has been doing to get things canceled. But it is like power, power, no truth but power. If you can get the mob to get behind you, the corporation will bow. They have obviously a lot of these places.
Starting point is 00:40:55 Yeah, there's a lot of places, the blogosphere, as essentially to some degree their influence is worth a lot less than it used to be. They've devalued all their tools. You've not gotten your money back from Blink Fitness? No. The case is closed. I paid it, and it's over. But you're saying that they – And I basically said, and they were like, blah, blah, blah, sorry.
Starting point is 00:41:15 And I go, well, no, you stole $500 to me, and I'm not happy about it. So they stole $500 from you? Yeah, something like that. So like – More, probably. So if, I don't know, $100. Twice, by the way. I don't even need to get into the nitty-gritty, but they did the same scam to me twice.
Starting point is 00:41:30 And I paid it off and canceled. I mean, there is a saying. It is immoral to let a sucker keep his money, Ryan. So if hundreds of thousands of people who maybe listen to a podcast decide to- Do you want to message me and do a class action situation? Reach me. Or just send an email saying, Blink Fitness, you took this guy's money. You blink in your money's guns.
Starting point is 00:41:47 I mean, if you go look at the Yelp reviews of Blink Fitness, every single one of the reviews is what Ryan is saying. Nobody's like Great Jim. It's all, they spammed me out of my money. Give me my money back, Blink Fitness. Where's my money? I lost a pound the first day. How'd that happen? They took my wallet.
Starting point is 00:42:03 So it was that you signed up, you quit, but in the contract it says we're going to start your account back up in two years? No, it's because of COVID. Because of COVID, basically they put it on hold. And then they go, okay, if you want to work out, you have to come wear a mask and you've got to do a certain time. I go, okay, just leave it on hold. They go, we can't. And I go, okay, just cancel it. And then they go, fine.
Starting point is 00:42:22 So they go, oh, and then three months later I just start getting charges again. And I go, oh, they go, I thought you canceled. They go, no, we didn't cancel it. And then they go, fine. So they go, oh, and then three months later, I just start getting charges again. And I go, oh, they go, I thought you canceled. They go, no, we didn't cancel it. We just put it on hold and now you owe us. I go, just cancel it now. And they go, well, unless you pay this $500, we can't cancel it. Oh, wow. And to cancel it, you have to send in a letter to their corporate office.
Starting point is 00:42:39 Send in a letter. You can't go into the location that you signed because I was going to the same Blink Fitness as them. You can't go in there and say hey I'd like to cancel they go okay here's an address send a letter
Starting point is 00:42:49 to this address requesting cancellation if they want to cancel they basically you're like you need to do you know
Starting point is 00:42:54 we're going to give you three challenges seriously I want to cancel this account they go you have to climb this mountain
Starting point is 00:42:59 in under four minutes they're like just go through that door in the back and you go through it and it's like this like lush elven paradise
Starting point is 00:43:05 and there's a bridge and you try to cross it and a troll comes out and casts you three riddles. That's exactly what it is. You've got to cast the ring into the fire. And your receipt
Starting point is 00:43:14 for cancellation is in one of these nine boxes. You must cast your membership cards into the fires of Mount Doom. Yeah, if you open the wrong door,
Starting point is 00:43:23 you just bought four more years. This is probably triggering so many of your listeners who have gone through this exact same thing, buried this in the back of their mind, and now this is coming back. Well, this is how gyms make money, though. Yeah. You know, gyms, they know everybody. Everybody signs up on January 1st. And guys named Jim make money working as mechanics.
Starting point is 00:43:40 Why gyms? How come it's always gyms that do this? Listen, listen. I'm explaining. On January 1st, everybody's like, I'm going to show up and I'm going to get fit. And so these gyms in the first week of January get massive sign-ups. And then you scam them for the next couple of years. Right.
Starting point is 00:43:52 Because they know no one's going to come back. And so they're just like, they tell you. Because I signed up for a gym and it was in like February or something like four or five years ago. And I still pay them to this day. Well, because canceling is admitting defeat as well like you're you're essentially saying i give up when you cancel so so many people do that and then they're like well i you know i might go but what what they tell you when you're signing up they say to you like this is a two-year term they force you to
Starting point is 00:44:19 be a long-term hodler of their gym right membership yeah but um i i think like i don't i don't mind having a specific gym membership because you never know if you need to use a shower. That's definitely 100% battered wife syndrome. You go, no, it's fine that I pay 300 bucks a year or maybe one day I'll need to shower. That's so funny. Because you can just go in and pay to use the shower.
Starting point is 00:44:40 When you're traveling around the country, several years ago, when I'm on like, it was one and a half flights, like two flights every three weeks, like I would fly. And you don't know exactly where you're traveling around the country several years ago and I'm on like – it was one and a half flights, like two flights every three weeks. Like I would fly and you don't know exactly where you're going to be. I've popped into one of these gyms and I've been like right on. Well, the trick is to pop in without your membership and act like, oh, what the –
Starting point is 00:44:56 I mean that's the – Act very confused. All the van people, all the people who live in vans, the kind of nomads, that's their deal is you get a gym membership. Yeah, you sleep in Walmart parking lots. Yeah. That's the future. You'll own nothing and you'll be happy.
Starting point is 00:45:08 Yeah. I had a friend do that. He was like a camper kind of guy. Loved it. But then he needed to meet a woman and he's like, I got to go get a house. Yes.
Starting point is 00:45:14 Yeah. Yeah, but what if you get like a full size house but, you know, with wheels? So it's not a van. It's literally a house you can drive. Yeah, mobile home, they believe they call those.
Starting point is 00:45:24 Yeah. Yeah. But like a real camper home. That's my mom. Well can drive. Yeah, mobile home, they believe they call those. Yeah. But like a real camper home. That's my mom. Well, you're talking about the homes where they're like, you ever see them relocating an actual house? That's cool. And they're like driving it like 10 miles an hour. Yeah. And there's a porch and everything.
Starting point is 00:45:34 Yeah, like the whole house. You know what we should do? That's wild. We should build something that can like fold out into a house. So it's like it can be driven in the back of like a 16-wheeler. Yeah, like a tent. I believe you're describing a tent. No, you know, like with walls
Starting point is 00:45:50 and like power outlets. You ever see those houses where they 3D print it? Like a concrete tube comes out? Yeah, that's cool. We're getting close to the right materials, the metamaterials that are super thin, super lightweight,
Starting point is 00:46:02 super strong structurally. Well, look. Nickel, something. Nickel. Something like nickel. We're going to build this house with nickel. Copper and nickel. Bitcoin and Russian bones. Right.
Starting point is 00:46:11 Maybe some electricity. Once you make enough money, you do two things. You replace all of the electrical work in your house with silver and graphene because why not spend $3 million on the electrical system? And then it's a good investment. Yeah, because then no one knows. And when the apocalypse happens, you just punch your wall and pull the silver out and boom. That's how you get it.
Starting point is 00:46:31 We're out of here. Yeah, that's right. Rip it out of your own walls. Let's ride. Let's bring this ridiculous conversation back to the war and stuff like that. Well, what happened was, yeah, basically Biden came out. War against blink fitness. Biden came out and he said, contrary to what I want to say before, was I'd like to make the announcement the United States government is going to the moon.
Starting point is 00:46:49 Yeah. Is that happening? That was the exact thing. He said spreading FUD is now going to be illegal, a crime punishable by death. Joe Biden came out and said the United States will be canceling its Blink Fitness membership. Canceling the Blink Fitness membership. And we will be tying American coin. It's going to be tethered one to
Starting point is 00:47:08 one to Doge. Has anybody looked into the possibility that this whole Putin Ukraine thing is just because he had a gym membership in Ukraine? Yeah, that makes sense. He goes, I can't cancel. He goes, you know what? Well, I'm going to go in there and I'm going to cancel it myself. He shows up and he goes to Biden in a meeting and he's like, you know, look,
Starting point is 00:47:24 everything's great. We're fine with the sanctions. We're going to work it out. I know we can negotiate. Shakes Biden's hand. Here's one quick thing. I got this gym membership at Blink Fitness. It's an American company. Are you familiar with Blink Fitness?
Starting point is 00:47:37 But Joe's like, oh, dude, you signed a contract, man. You got to pay. And Putin's like, dude, I don't go there anymore. And Biden's just like just like bro you signed the contract what if you need to shower next time you're here it's good and then it's like and then all of a sudden bombs are dropping yeah no but uh in terms of the war stuff like you will own nothing and you'll be happy they're talking to us about eating bugs for the longest time they're talking to us about living in the pods then they're you know they're telling everyone
Starting point is 00:48:01 to stay home and work remote and then as soon as the COVID thing like disappears, all of a sudden now it's war with Russia and Ukraine. And it's like the same prescription. Gas prices are through the roof. It's like the same issues are starting to occur. They just found – and the same things are happening where there's like, hey, we have a new reason that we can just print money and then distribute it as we please. Yeah, they haven't quite turned on that spigot yet, but that's probably... I mean, they just announced $14 billion
Starting point is 00:48:32 to Ukraine or something like that. Yeah, that's great. Or whatever, I'm just saying they haven't... No, they're not like the COVID trillions, like the $4 trillion or whatever. I mean, that press is still hot. This is the crazy thing this is why you know i've been saying i'm trying to buy as much as i can for the studio and the company
Starting point is 00:48:49 instead of waiting so we bought like five desktops we need them and they're just like they're cheapos they're small like you can type on them you can't really do anything like you can barely watch a movie on them a couple hundred bucks with you know with a monitor and i'm just like we need them for the office we need them for you writers. Just buy them all now because I'm going to wait and it's going to go up $50. It's going to go up $100. I mean, especially anything that has any kind of chip in it. Oh, yeah, dude.
Starting point is 00:49:11 We're going to lose Taiwan in two seconds. I don't know about that. I thought for sure I'd given up, but now seeing all these sanctions on Russia, I think that the CCP is more about profit. I don't think they're really going to throw all this. Yeah, they're not going to shut off the West like that. I just think it's the raw materials. I don't mean China's really going to throw all this. They're not going to shut off the West like that. I just think it's the raw materials.
Starting point is 00:49:25 I don't mean China is going to stop providing chips. I think it's just going to be like we're not going to have the materials. I'm a big Buttigieg fan. Are you? Yeah. So when he came out and said you should buy an electric car, I was like that's a good point. So I bought like seven of them just to make sure. Because I don't understand why poor people don't just do that.
Starting point is 00:49:41 Just buy a couple electric cars. You don't have to worry about gas prices ever again. You have to think about it, bro. Yeah, you've got to think about it. Just buy an electric car that you know just just buy a couple electric cars you don't gotta worry about gas prices ever again you have to think about it bro yeah you gotta think about it just buy an electric car and you can just drive it the funny thing is you know the you ask the question of these people where does the electricity come from it's like fossil fuels it doesn't come from well do you see i don't know if you saw the alberta guy from canada because they were basically when when all this stuff happened they were like, okay, we need to find more oil. We're going to meet with Saudi Arabia or whatever.
Starting point is 00:50:07 And the Alberta guy was like, yeah, happy to meet you. We could sort this whole thing up pretty easy. You just have to open up our pipeline again. Pretty funny. Do you guys ever go to the Keystone? USDetClock.org. It's like a trauma nightmare. Isn't there one in Union Square?
Starting point is 00:50:22 In Union Square in New York. I always thought it was the debt clock, but it turns out it was actually – A regular clock. It was actually my D size. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It goes down, you know. Yeah, it goes down. Danny thought it was the U.S. debt.
Starting point is 00:50:33 It turns out it was his mom's scale. But you know, the number is going down. Is it? Oh, yeah. Of what? Of the debt? So the number in Union Square in New York – No, it's a clock with the date and time.
Starting point is 00:50:44 But the back of the second number Is the amount of time left decreasing So if you're looking at the number You're seeing the digits on the right going down So if you're to de-size, your D's getting smaller Sorry That sounds accurate Good news for my pants
Starting point is 00:50:59 Because It's like Two clocks puts it at like a billion feet or something that actually is good news for the pant budget now you can breathe you know I just
Starting point is 00:51:11 I we keep hearing good news from my back so here's what I did I bought a bunch of emergency food and I didn't do it because I think
Starting point is 00:51:17 we're going to need to eat it I didn't do it because I thought the apocalypse was going to happen I did it because I thought it was going to become more expensive in a few months
Starting point is 00:51:22 and I'm like if this stuff lasts 30 years some of it does and then I'm just like why didn't you buy the 30 year old stuff no it's just to see what it tastes like 30 years of food like is there a way that you can no no it's not it's not 30 years it's food that lasts a shelf life of 30 years no but that's what i mean no i'm saying you buying food where you're like you bought too much food it's like yeah well if we have to eat it in 2055 we'll eat it in 2055 well because look look look we've got you know around 30 employees which you can eat on that in the next 40 years yeah uh within the
Starting point is 00:51:50 next 30 years is there a possibility that there's a storm is there a flood is there a blizzard is there a well sure but i'm thinking about it more practically like sometimes it rains and there floods and you know we got the river right there you'll be the only guy everyone's eating their bug burgers and you're gonna have your 30 years of supply of food. He's going to have his space food. That's the thing. Unfortunately not. It's a bucket that lasts 30 years.
Starting point is 00:52:11 It's like a day's worth of food. I have a question. Did they do these? So the expiration date, it's like dried in a package. You can put it in a bucket for 30 years, but it's like one day of food. Yeah, I got it.
Starting point is 00:52:23 Yeah, you said 30 years of the food or something. I'm like, no, we've got like like one day of food. Yeah, I got it. You said 30 years worth of food or something. I'm like, no, we've got like two weeks worth of food. How much did you buy? Enough for like two weeks worth of food. My point is, I don't think in the next few years I'm going to eat it. I'm like, I just think in the next few years it's going to double
Starting point is 00:52:39 in price. Might as well buy it now, I guess. It's food. So you say your portfolio, what's your portfolio? I got some of the SP500, a bunch of Nutri-Green bars, the hard coffee. The pie jar is actual bunker pie. Why don't you go look at our storeroom? We've got maybe
Starting point is 00:52:55 like a thousand Gatorades. You have a lot of Gatorades. You have a lot of swords. Well, that's what you want. The Tim Cusbush is 50% swords. We should probably actually film it because it's funny. Be like, we need to think and prepare ahead. What should we get? Swords.
Starting point is 00:53:10 Blades. That really is what you want. Clubs. I did buy a bunch of swords. That's going to be you just divvying up the bunker food with the sword. With the sword. Excellent. All right.
Starting point is 00:53:22 Everyone take your portions. Jing, jing, jing. This behind me is a wakizashi it's not a sharpened blade but it is a sharpened point because it's more like decorative but it is real but it's more for poking you could poke okay but uh but for the most part it's meant to just be like art it's like i think it's like a it's like a laminated blade or something i don't know maybe it's right but it's not supposed to rust or whatever and it was they look cool on the wall. That's for sure. It was nice. People were complaining we have a mall sword. Hey, you got a sword and an axe.
Starting point is 00:53:48 Oh, yeah. There you go. But people were complaining about my mall sword because I went to the mall. What's a mall sword? Oh, you bought one from a mall? Yeah, it's like just cheap steel. Right.
Starting point is 00:53:56 Costs 10 bucks and everyone's making fun of it. Ex-girlfriend's name engraved in it. Yeah, that's some anime on it. And I'm just like, why are you guys ragging on my mall sword? I know it's a mall sword. Fine. So I bought an actual Wakazashi from a company that makes them and i was like
Starting point is 00:54:06 just unsharpened because you know we don't actually need to go around but then i thought about it and i was like i'm gonna buy a bunch of actual swords yeah talk about swords i'm like you know here's what i'm thinking gonna get more expensive might as well buy it now huh i mean the the raw materials in them definitely will be yeah the. The steel one. Yeah, man. Iron. It's tough if you have to use them against someone who knows how to use a sword.
Starting point is 00:54:29 In the springtime, those weeds, man. They grow quick. Dude, whacking weeds with a sword in your underwear. That's more important. Just let the neighbors
Starting point is 00:54:36 know who's boss. Also, the severe allergies. You can see the muscles. Deep July, just whacking your weeds with a sword wearing Long John's no shirt.
Starting point is 00:54:44 That's right. The sweat flies off. Sneezing. I got a titanium sealed, you know, katana. And we're going to go out and we're going to do the lawn. We're going to, you know, swipe the grass. Titanium. Yeah, that doesn't rust.
Starting point is 00:54:58 Yeah, and, you know, you want to get the grass the right height. Yeah, no, to be completely honest. That'll keep people from swatting you again too when they see that image. I bought some swords. The food stuff, although I'm serious, because it's like we've eaten a ton of it already. And that's the thing. It's like it's food. You just eat it.
Starting point is 00:55:16 It's mac and cheese. It's like Kraft. Then you're sort of dipping into your investments though. Never get high on your own supply. I'm biggie guy 25 years ago. You're dipping into the book. This is strong enough. You're breaking one of the Krakow members. I'm biggie guy 25 years ago. You're dipping into the business. This is strong enough. You're breaking one of the crack commands.
Starting point is 00:55:26 I don't know if you bought seats. No, this is actually true. I did. We should get 1,000 times more than we think we need because they're not expensive. No, just in case. Here's the funny thing is, though. Smash glass. If it does go to nuclear war with Putin or whatever, people are going to watch this,
Starting point is 00:55:42 and they're going to watch it laughing at us. I just love the level of your investment, too. They're going to be trying to find out the address of this place, and they're going to watch it laughing at us. I just love the level of your investment. They're going to be trying to find out the address of this place and they're going to get some of it. They have everything we need. Because on the one end it's like, okay, let's buy this compound and build this thing. It's like, okay, that's investment one. Investment two is like
Starting point is 00:55:57 a bucket of slop. This is good food. Got pancake mix. Got stroganoff. Can you find out, do you know what the price of, a good example would be around Y2K because that was, what, 22 years ago. I'm sure they were selling these things. I wonder how much they've gone up since then. And then it would be interesting to eat one of those because that would be 22 years old. How old are you guys?
Starting point is 00:56:18 I'm 38. I'm 38. You're 36? So is it just me or did everybody on Y2K turn the power off at their house
Starting point is 00:56:28 on New Year's no we did not you didn't do that we just played magic you guys didn't do that I wasn't I played magic I was at a friend's house
Starting point is 00:56:34 my friend's house they turned the power off I don't remember I actually can't remember like it's 1207 oh you did that as a gag I didn't do it someone did the part
Starting point is 00:56:42 oh you're saying someone did that you're right someone was doing that in every house across the world. Every dad joke turned into a poop that night. I think I did puke that night, though. That's nuts.
Starting point is 00:56:49 Playing magic together. I just was sick that night, yeah. Oh. I don't know. I was stressed out. You're the funniest. I remember I had a girl in a car on a bridge when it was happening, right? Yeah, probably.
Starting point is 00:56:58 That's the way to go. You're going to really suck if the world's about to end. That's right. No, no, no. Think about how insane the fake news was. Like, how insane the fake news was about this. Oh, yeah. The media yeah the media was saying y2k so you know we did at my house we we had a bunch of computers and we went into the bios and we like set the internal clock for like a half an hour then we went into windows we did the same thing see what happened and we sat back and
Starting point is 00:57:18 literally nothing happened and i was like this is dumb so nothing's gonna happen yeah and we're like nothing's gonna happen they're making it up i think they thought that because of the way computers were reading data, it was going to cycle to all zeros and reset. It was for the banks. They were like all the corporations weren't able to do that. They were making Y2K compliant programs you could buy. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:36 And then I'm like, it just changed to zero, zero and nothing happens. That was one of the most embarrassing manias. Bro, this don't say gay thing is basically Jesse Smollett. No, for real. They've made up a problem in their own minds, and now they're complaining about a problem they made up. And Republicans are complaining about how the problem they made up is actually a good thing. And I'm like, what is going on? So I'm seeing Ben Shapiro tweet at them, and he's like, why are you trying to indoctrinate kids?
Starting point is 00:58:04 This bill stops that. I'm i'm like no it doesn't right it's like the left made it up complained about it and then the right argued it was a good thing but none of it is true they they got baited into you know defending it essentially yep yeah that was one of those it's the don't say straight bill by the way that was the one as as soon as i saw i was kind of like whatever you guys are saying it's not that. I go, what's actually going on here? Everyone seems to be lying. So we called it – I've called it the anti-grooming bill as kind of a point.
Starting point is 00:58:35 And I say that to – as a point to counter the Democrats calling it don't say gay. No, I know what you mean. But it is – that is the – sorry. No, I was going to say the better point is call it don't say straight. There's literally no difference between straight and gay when the context is identity or orientation. So if the bill restricts classroom discussions from preschool to third grade on orientation, then you can't say straight. What about don't secretly talk about sex with students bill? Can we call it that?
Starting point is 00:58:59 It doesn't stop that. It actually – that's the thing it actually encourages. This is the craziest thing. The bill encourages teachers to secretly talk to children about these things. I thought that they was banning them from
Starting point is 00:59:09 secretly talking to children. No, you are incorrect. It sucks to have kids like that. What? You're saying it's like the Catholic Church being like,
Starting point is 00:59:15 any sex talk's gotta be one-on-one. The bill restricts classroom discussions from preschool to third grade on gender identity or orientation. That's not the bulk
Starting point is 00:59:24 of the bill. The the bulk of the bill like the actual bulk of the bill is parents must be informed about medical issues involving their children that's it so it's like a kid who stubs his toe tell the parents the kid got hurt if you okay let's say that you are uh the person who would be on the non-republican side super in favor of kids is there anyone arguing that sex needs to be taught to JK? Yes. 100%. So how old are you when you're JK?
Starting point is 00:59:52 Like six, five. So they're saying five-year-olds need to be like, here's what anal sex looks like. No, no, no. It's four-year-olds. Preschool is four years old, and third grade goes up to eight-year-olds. And where's that? Where are they arguing that should happen? So the issue is that... Like why i said like anyone legitimately like is there so cnn you know not like fringe bloggers or is this cnn runs the story about kate mckinnon i think her name is on
Starting point is 01:00:14 snl oh yeah and she does a bit where she's first pretending that it's like you can't insult someone by calling them gay and then she realizes what it actually is. But CNN shows the bill would restrict discussions of gender identity and orientation in preschool through third grade over Kate McKinnon talking about it. So I'm like, do we sit here and just assume that the people who go on CNN, the people who watch CNN, aren't aware of what the bill is and genuinely think it's stopping kids from talking about orientation? Or do assume based on cnn accurately reporting it they know and they're trying to teach four-year-olds about sexual activities yeah yeah because it's you're you're i see what your point is you go i mean if you're lying at least you're just up to your old tricks but if you're not lying
Starting point is 01:01:02 it's worse yeah or whatever so my thing is uh it's also just strange where you go i get the i think that people just they leave any sort of thought when they go this is what our team thinks isn't you go really you want to like what grown adult really wants to take someone else's kid and be like let me tell you about sex when they're four but i don't my friends my friends the bill doesn't stop this a teacher a janitor a school district employee can walk the janitor should be teaching you that's i mean i learned all about the bill says school district employee they can walk up to a group of 10 kids and say kids i'd like to talk to you about why you're trans. And the bill doesn't stop that. What the bill stops is that if they're in the classroom for a specific classroom discussion. Well, does it encourage that, though?
Starting point is 01:01:51 It just doesn't have anything to do with that, you're saying. They're allowed to have one-on-ones, but they can't be teaching in a group setting. They are allowed in group settings. They're not allowed in classroom settings. They're not allowed in classroom settings. Specifically means the bell rings. It's 9 a.m. The teacher walks in and says, everybody turn to page 17 and we're going to learn about oral. Right. They can not allowed in classroom settings. Which specifically means the bell rings, it's 9am, the teacher walks in and says, everybody turn to page 17
Starting point is 01:02:06 and we're going to learn about oral. Right. They can't do that. They can, after class, walk up to a group. Take them to the woods and show them the I don't know about all that, but they can. So let's say there's a group of kids, and they're talking about this stuff. The teacher can hear it and walk over and say, ask me anything you want and we'll talk all about it. They don't got to tell the parents.
Starting point is 01:02:22 All of that is still acceptable and fine, as far as Republicans are concerned. I don't know, because they're still in a classroom setting even if it's after classroom discussions even if it's like after school if it's in the classroom it's essentially about the curriculum is what the argument's about right so one-on-one is is in the clear there may be some questions about with more than one person but nothing is stopping a teacher from having a let's just let's just go to that point. A teacher can walk up to a student who's four years old by themselves, pull them out of the classroom and say... Yeah, are you gay or nah?
Starting point is 01:02:49 Right. Yeah. But there's one thing the bill does. They can't say, don't tell your parents. They can't do that. So they can still have private discussions about this stuff. They can say literally nothing, but if they say, don't tell your parents,
Starting point is 01:03:01 now they're crossing the line. The teacher says, don't tell your parents? Yeah. And then what's the... What about... It should be how they say, don't tell your parents. It could be like, hey, don't tell your parents now they're crossing the line the teacher says don't tell your parents yeah and then what's this what about it should be how they say don't tell your parents they can't they can't tell your parents well they can't discourage or dissuade uh students from talking to their parents about medical issues so this is the crazy thing about the bill and we talked about it for like three days now is that if a kid trips uh slips on vomit and breaks his arm the teacher might go up to him and be like, we're going to get sued because that's our fault. And they go to the kid and they say, don't tell your parents how that happened.
Starting point is 01:03:30 Just say you were playing outside. Yeah, don't tell them that I had a couple extra today in class. No, for real. And barfed. Let loose a little. So, I mean, obviously drinking at school would be illegal for the teacher. But let's say a kid trips on something. It's a school's fault.
Starting point is 01:03:42 And the school just comes up to them and knows the kid's not smart enough to address the issue and says don't tell your parents the kid goes home with a broken arm they call the parents oh he was playing outside the kid doesn't tell his parents because the teachers told him not to now the insurance now the insurance like we're not covering it and the school's like it's not our fault and now that this poor middle-class family is being put out so that the reason i bring that up is that the democrats narrative on the whole thing is just like they literally made it up. It has nothing to do with this bill. It is just like – that's why I'm calling the bill – don't say straight.
Starting point is 01:04:11 In your mind, you kind of go, yeah, who even came – who even ever read this and interpreted that was what was happening? Yeah, gay and straight is not a medical thing. So what is the trans – It's mental health. What is the trans component? Nothing. Identity and orientation, I suppose. Well, wasn't it that if you're K through 2 and you are taking hormones, you're supposed to notify the parents?
Starting point is 01:04:32 Is that the idea? Not in the bill. The bill just says if the teachers can't give medication to students. Yeah. If a student would be prescribed any kind of medication, the parents must be informed. I'll tell you this. I've been trying to get to the bottom of this, to be honest, because it did feel like I go, what the hell is actually happening here?
Starting point is 01:04:50 So let's say your kid's at school, right? It's like a propaganda salad coming around from everywhere. Let's say your kid's at school, and he gets a stomach ache. And so they say, we want to give the kid some Pepto. Make his stomach feel better. Gotta tell the parents. Democrats are opposed to that. No. Because the reality here is they're saying don't say gay as a psychological attack.
Starting point is 01:05:06 Conservatives have fallen for it. Conservatives are playing into that narrative because the reality of the bill is they want to make sure parents don't know what's happening to their children, period. It's not about gay. It's not about straight. It's not even about any one specific thing. It's about saying don't let parents know what we're doing in general. Because then we can now take that principle and do some critical race theory do teach them whatever we want so they claim they're not teaching critical race more
Starting point is 01:05:28 about that it's it's just you know it wasn't until covid we actually learned what they were doing to kids because the zoom classrooms and the teachers got freaked out and like we saw these leaked calls where they're like parents are finding out what i'm telling their kids that's what it's about the the teachers can't teach children things you know outside of curriculum parents can sue the teachers if they go outside curriculum teachers can't you know uh take medical action against a child without parental consent or or advisement if a kid has a medical mental or physical issue they have to inform the parents and then one provision is preschool through third grade you you can't have classroom discussions on orientation or identity.
Starting point is 01:06:06 It's all very reasonable things. You know what else there is something to be said about? If you want to teach like essentially your worldview and propaganda, then be a university teacher because that's like – that's basically the job. You get to do your course and you can kind of teach whatever you want and which is very worldview and very what you think if you want to teach grade seven you know maybe just teach the guys you ever play lemmings yeah i remember back in i played on like a windows 95 yeah i don't know who came up with the idea npc lemmings i think it was shamus yeah the idea would be i think i was talking about how i play the game lemmings on my phone, and the idea is someone mentioned they're programming
Starting point is 01:06:48 a version of it where instead of Lemmings, they're NPCs. A little NPC meme. When you want to dig through a wall, he puts on an Antifa mask and starts vandalizing the wall. I thought this Russia stuff in general was a very, you know, from back to back with COVID, just to show
Starting point is 01:07:04 the extent to which it's so easy to get people hyped up on for whatever you want them to be hyped up about and it's like it's funny it's funny to point out sometimes but you go it's almost would just be like man it's almost as better to be a politician because you go it is or whatever if you have a real agenda it's very easy to get people jazzed up for whatever you want them jazzed up about yeah yeah yeah uh and nothing and the hypocrisy doesn't matter i mean you know we're talking about all this trans stuff but like all the stuff that they were mad at people about for four years straight ukraine could be doing it all of that and it could be you know on video and
Starting point is 01:07:40 we don't care i mean there was that you guys before the show you pulled up zelensky and he was doing like roman salutes, Nazi salutes, and he was making jokes about buying Hitler's book and all that stuff. Well, he was making jokes about how Mein Kampf was sold out in the Ukraine. Which is because the Azov in the Western Ukraine are like militant Nazis.
Starting point is 01:07:56 They've been around for 80 years. No, but imagine that was, you know, some politician running for New York. Well, yeah, but also like, you know, Putin was like, we're going to denazify and everybody's like, okay, whatever. Like, that's you know yeah but also like you know putin was like we're gonna denazify and everybody's like okay whatever like that's your pretext nobody actually believes that and then you're the ones that call people nazis yeah well but everybody but then you see you're like oh there actually are like quite a bit yeah of like real nazis and then remember in the ottawa
Starting point is 01:08:18 thing the protesters and they go ah look there's like a confederate flag there's like a nazi flag you're all nazis and then you go, okay, so this is a guy. Then are all these people in Ukraine Nazis then? Yes. All the people you also- They don't care. No, I know they don't care, but it's just- Yeah, that's reserved for podcasters.
Starting point is 01:08:34 The Azov were basically in Western Ukraine during World War II. They were like insurgent Nazis that were fighting on the side of the Germans. Right. But my point is- Left over from when Ukraine was a German protectorate after World War I. So there's definitely like nuance to all of these points but the point my point is that the nuance is granted very differently in every situation it's like and it's almost it's pretty egregious to the point where it's interesting i would even see with other people i go you can't they're not going to get hyped up about something completely opposite a day later are they and they will let me let me let me pull the story we got from timcast.com
Starting point is 01:09:08 poll finds republicans and independents would stay and fight if america was invaded democrats say they would flee i know this guy and he was tweeting up a storm during 2020 about how trump was evil and trump was bad and you know what he did right after the election nothing he moved to europe and i'm just like this dude votes for joe biden and then within a couple months the ship is sinking gas prices all these problems and he's gone and he's gone and here i am sitting here holding the bag and i just feel like yo these people are evil right it's the banality of evil it's not diabolical evil it is you know what neutral evil, I guess you'd call it.
Starting point is 01:09:46 It is, it is indifference as they watch things crumble around them. They say, I'm going to vote for Biden because I want to signal to everybody how virtuous I am, but I'm gone the moment he gets elected. I'm going to go live somewhere else because we know how bad it's going to get.
Starting point is 01:10:00 And there they go. They go off. It's funny. They say that we flee because the same people were like, when Trump, they're going to move into Canada. None of them, none of them did. None of them did. and there they go. They go off. It's funny they say they would flee because the same people were like when Trump said, I'm moving to Canada, none of them did. None of them did.
Starting point is 01:10:08 And the funniest part is we were living in Canada at the time. We go, that's rich. You all think you can just come here. But it's this weird American exceptionalism where you guys think you can just go anywhere. We can. Bill Clinton did it during Vietnam.
Starting point is 01:10:20 But with Trump, things were good. So when Trump got elected, these celebrities were like, well, my 401K is doing well. My bank account is doing well. I'm getting more work. I'm OK. When Biden hits and everything starts going bad, they're like, I'm going to get out of here because things are falling apart. And it's their fault.
Starting point is 01:10:35 And here we are. I would not want to go to Europe. These people say – the majority of Democrats said they would flee if the US got attacked. And that's a crazy thought. These people are helping steer the ship Iran, but they have no problem admitting they would jump overboard the sign of any conflict or turmoil. Leave us holding that bag.
Starting point is 01:10:51 Oh, I just said that Clinton fled to Canada during Vietnam. I think that he just sought and received deferments to avoid combat being sent to the jungle. Good job, Bill. I don't know if he actually went to Canada or not. That was different. At the time, Canada actually did take people who wanted to not go to vietnam i think but if you tried to get into canada during i'd be one worse than gone i would you know be decided both uniforms in my backpack
Starting point is 01:11:15 and then whoever was winning that particular battle yeah there's no way i i would do everything i could to not get sent to go to the meat grinder in the jungle yeah i don't think i'd be fighting any wars well vietnam i get but get, but what would happen right now? You find patriots. If America got invaded, would you be on the front line defending America? No, I'd be on the front line of Windsor, Ontario. Yeah, I'd be on the front lines of a gender reassignment surgery, misdoubt firing my way out of this war.
Starting point is 01:11:38 You're in America now, all right? You are suckling the bosom of this country. You will stand. Suckling the bosom? What's the reverse of suckling the bosom of this country You will stand to die What's the reverse of suckling the bosom? Funding your social programs We're being held by the ankles And just shaken
Starting point is 01:11:52 Out of your mind? Well the taxes are higher in Canada New York City? Paying for your IRS's? No, no, no New York City has higher taxes than anywhere in Canada And we don't get free healthcare I assure you that I'm not suckling off the team.
Starting point is 01:12:07 You do. Listen to what I said. You do. And to answer your question, yeah, if Uncle Sam came knocking on my door, they're like, listen, you got to join the battalion. I'll go, yeah, yeah, meet you there. Hold on, hold on. Do you need a jester?
Starting point is 01:12:19 You're saying you don't get health care in New York. But you do get rat kings. You know the rat kings? Oh, I do know. I tried to write in a rat. So you do get rat kings. You know the rat king? I do know the rat king. I tried to write in a rat. So I did this movie. Remember Rob Ford? Yes.
Starting point is 01:12:29 The mayor of Toronto. So I made this movie about Rob Ford. I wrote it in the city. He's the guy who's doing drugs, right? He smoked crack. And I tried to write in a rat king into the movie. What the heck? A rat king.
Starting point is 01:12:38 Tell me about this rat king thing. What is that? It's basically, it's a bunch of rats, and then their tails Get all matted With like mud and dirt And then they all get stuck together And then they essentially become It's like a hive mind thing
Starting point is 01:12:51 Where they Because you know Now their tails are all stuck together So they have to move in unison Because otherwise they're all pulling So it's yeah See they're all It's called the rat king
Starting point is 01:13:02 And they do They move together Well they have to Otherwise how do you get anywhere? Wow. Does one of them take over as the brain? No, I think it's like a symbiotic. Like they all...
Starting point is 01:13:11 It's like a Ouija board, you know? Yeah, exactly. It's like a Ouija board. It's like a corporation for rats. Yeah, yeah. Kind of, exactly. This crazy dude. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:13:18 Is it real, though? Because some people have said that it's like an urban legend. Oh, I guess there you go. It does look man-made. It looks like a psychopath. Rat King phenomenon. Synthetic Rat Kings? that it's like an urban legend. Oh, I guess there you go. It does look man-made. Tied together. A psychopath did that. Rat king phenomenon. Synthetic rat kings.
Starting point is 01:13:30 Yeah, I don't know. There's rats everywhere in New York. That one, the medium one, top left, second top left. That looks real. Why on Wikipedia does it say, historically, this phenomenon is particularly associated with Germany? Why does it say that on Wikipedia?
Starting point is 01:13:41 It's in the first paragraph on Wikipedia. Really? Yeah. Maybe they had more stories about it. You're saying that's 4chan getting in there? I don't know. Yeah, what the heck? That's weird.
Starting point is 01:13:47 Maybe Germany has rat kings. I mean, but you're saying New York City. Yeah, maybe Germany does. Oh, squirrels do the same thing. Oh, interesting. Squirrel king just doesn't have a good... No, yeah. It doesn't roll off the tongue.
Starting point is 01:13:57 Have you ever seen a squirrel rat? Well, they do. Once you put them in your rectum, they get tangled. Oh, my gosh. It's a family-friendly show. Yeah, that's right. Have you ever seen a squirrel rat? Squirrel. That's a medical procedure show. Have you ever seen a square rat?
Starting point is 01:14:06 That's a medical procedure. That is medical. What is it? So they're not real, but I was in New York. I was at Central Park and I saw it was a genetic, it was like a chimeric squirrel. Something happened to it
Starting point is 01:14:16 where its tail, part of it didn't have fur and part of it didn't have like, it was partly albino. Like a mange? So like, no, no, no. It was like half albino squirrel. And so it looked half rat and half squirrel.
Starting point is 01:14:28 But they can't procreate. So it's not a real thing, a squirrel rat. But people think they are because they'll see these mutant squirrels with less hair on one side. And they think it's like a mutant, like a hybrid. But yeah, it's just they're ill and diseased, right? No, it could just be a genetic thing. Yeah, it's just like a genetic mutation. Yeah, they are aggressive in New York.
Starting point is 01:14:49 Oh, yeah. The rats. Squirrels. And the homeless. The squirrels. I used to feed them and they'd come up and then every once in a while you'd get one that would just grab the bag of nuts and run.
Starting point is 01:14:58 And pigeons, you can hold out your hand and the pigeons will jump on you. You can walk up to a pigeon in New York and hold out food, it'll jump into your hand and start eating. Yeah, they don't have any – they're not afraid. And then what you do is you grab its feet and it can't get away. And then you take it home.
Starting point is 01:15:11 Mike Tyson. Mike Tyson is going to be sad that you said that. They used to do that, you know, right? What's that? I think it was the – was it the passenger pigeon? Was it? That's the extinct one now. Yeah, in New York, they would like go out with a net and just catch a pigeon and eat them.
Starting point is 01:15:24 Yep. Could you imagine living that way? Like going out in New York and putting up a rat trap and being like, Woo, we got some meat tonight. I mean, it's crazy, right? That's what they do. That's the North Korean camps or whatever. They put them in the labor camps.
Starting point is 01:15:35 That's a delicacy. You should be so lucky to catch a pigeon. People don't realize when we say... I mean, when you're eating all your bunker food, that's what me and Ryan are going to be eating in New York City. We're going to literally be like, let's find us a pigeon and eat it. I wish we got some of those bunker supplies. When he's feasting on that sweet, sweet compacted granola.
Starting point is 01:15:56 Rice and beans. Yeah, just rice and beans. You got the Trinidad pack. So we're going to be sitting there. The bunker mom. And, yo, we got chili powder and paprika, and we're going to be sitting there, So we're going to be sitting there. The bunker mom. And yo, we got chili powder and paprika. And we're going to be sitting there and we're going to be dancing and eating rice and beans. And you guys are going to be munching on rat.
Starting point is 01:16:12 And you're going to be like, Tim was right the whole time. Our hair is going to be falling out from the radiation. Speaking Russian and Chinese and mix. Russianese. You can plant dry beans from the grocery store. I never thoroughly thought that through, but that's awesome. You can eat them or plant them. Now you're just rubbing it in.
Starting point is 01:16:30 Yeah. So now you have a garden. We just need an endless supply of beans. We got a lot of beans. We can eat Danny's crypto portfolio. Yeah, that's going to be very useful in the end of times. It's crazy to think, you know know if you go to certain higher end restaurants they are often out of things because they're hard to come by and we've we've uh every
Starting point is 01:16:51 time i go there and ask for a hot dog they're always out of it well there's a there's a steakhouse nearby and it's like they were out of a certain steak they're like oh we don't have this meat we have that meat it's hard to get it's really expensive the prices are going up you can't afford it but we're so we're so luxurious in the United States that we don't even think twice about going into a local diner and saying, for breakfast, I want like a sirloin, top sirloin with scrambled eggs. And they're like, yup, no problem. And there are countries where it's like getting protein is unheard of. So it's just so – like Americans are just so – Totally.
Starting point is 01:17:22 That's like a – you get that for $10. Yeah. And that's why they keep saying you'll own nothing and you'll be happy because they're like, time to eat some bugs, dude. And for me? Well, I mean, for most people, they do own nothing. So that won't change very much. But I mean, there's an idea of, you know, 15 years ago, people used to own houses.
Starting point is 01:17:40 You know, people don't really own houses anymore. But this is because we've been taken over by oligarchs. No, for real. So I talk about wealth inequality every so often because I think it's a big problem. And there's – it's a very common trope on the right where it's like – relatively dismissive of it. It's not an issue. It doesn't come up as often. But when you have a small handful of ultra-wealthy elites, what they do is – like almost every time is they buy up as much property as they can because property is mandatory.
Starting point is 01:18:06 Well, that's happening now. Yeah, exactly. So when I visited Ukraine, we saw this. The new rush. I was looking at lofts in Ukraine in like 2013 and the prices were comparable to like a house in America. And I asked my Ukrainian friend, how is that possible? And she was like, it's a bunch of billionaire oligarchs who own everything.
Starting point is 01:18:22 They have to park their money just all over the world. And so they trade amongst each other. But I was told, but the rent is only like $50 a month. And I'm like, so it's a $300. So they take hits on them. No, not really. It's like the building shouldn't be worth that much. Well, they just want to own the asset.
Starting point is 01:18:36 They don't care about the cash flow. No, I'm just saying that, well, that's what I meant by take it however you want to look at it. Only other oligarchs can buy it. So they just talk amongst themselves like, oh, yeah, it's $300,000. You want it? Okay, fine. And then foreign investors.
Starting point is 01:18:51 That's the other thing too. The oligarchs know we'll put the price comparable to the West because Westerners who want to get property in here will have to pay it. We own it all. It's ours. That's happening now
Starting point is 01:18:59 with these companies buying up. I mean, New York City has tons of like some of the most expensive properties are owned by Russian oligarchs. Wow. Oh, yeah, yeah. There's a lot. I've been seeing stuff where a bunch of these places are going up for sale because like Roman Abramovich, he's like one of the big ones.
Starting point is 01:19:14 And he's selling – he owns Chelsea. He's been like the big owner of Chelsea. And he's like, I have to sell it. He's selling Chelsea because of this whole war. Wow. He's just like, I have to get rid of it. I can't keep it. And who can buy it?
Starting point is 01:19:24 Oh, someone will buy it. Black Rock. Big firm. Black Rock will take just like, I have to get rid of it. I can't keep any selling. And who can buy it? Oh, someone will buy it. Oh. BlackRock. Big firm. BlackRock will take out a $100 billion loan and then buy it. Oh, no, no. That'll be a lineup to buy that. There's no shortage of American billionaires.
Starting point is 01:19:36 I don't get it how a company can take out a billion dollar loan of funny money and then just own now the property's theirs because the funny money said so. I don't believe the funny money. What do you mean like they take out federal reserve loans which is just basically fiat fake money it's faith-based money and then they buy they can take hard assets they they use federal reserve i don't think they take it directly from the thing from a bank that took it from the fed yeah but they take it they don't take it at zero percent i don't know no no no not at zero percent but but ian this banking works. I mean, you're describing a mortgage. This is how banking works.
Starting point is 01:20:06 Which inflate immediately. This is how banking works. It's crazy. When I swap my credit card, the money just blinks into existence. And then I got to pay it. And these big companies have so much assets to take loans out on that they can take huge loans out and then buy the assets and then sell them back next year for double the price. I mean, all of this is just based on the fact that you know the u.s you can only do this in america yeah it's funny money it's the federal fiat currency so how and they know it
Starting point is 01:20:29 what yeah well it's i mean like look you can take uh you guys had your cash out earlier like you can take that cash and go spend that in any city in the world pretty much other than the ones like north korea where it's illegal or whatever you can't do that with any other currency right right like you go anywhere on this plan and say, here's a $5 American bill. They go, yeah, that's as good as anything. You're saying I can't go and pay my tab in London with an Ethiopian franc. Go try and pay it with a $20 Canadian bill and just the look they're going to give you in Europe. So here's what happens.
Starting point is 01:20:59 Go get some American money. I've traveled to maybe like 35 to 40 countries, and I've asked this a lot. And the response I usually get, like when I go to Morocco, and I'm like, will you take U.S. dollars? They'll go, okay, I guess. Because they got to go exchange it. But they're like, fine, I'll take it. You do the opposite. You get like a bowl of our fuerte from Venezuela in your garbage bag and you bring it to a Dunkin' Donuts and you slam 300 pounds of cash to buy one donut.
Starting point is 01:21:24 And they're like, sir, get out of here. What are you doing? We're calling the cops. They won't. It's just toilet paper to them. Depends on where, yeah. Yeah, you're not going to. Bro, when I came back from Venezuela,
Starting point is 01:21:33 we had big garbage bags of cash. Did you really bring them? We didn't bring the full garbage bags, but we had massive stacks. Take them to the strip club? No, no. I turned the cash in. Go Usher style? Yo, check it out. Usher bucks? No, no. I turned the cash in. Go Usher style?
Starting point is 01:21:45 Yo, check it out. Usher bucks? No, you bring the gun with the Venezuela. They give us petty cash when you're working for Vice to spend on day-to-day stuff. All cash is petty to me. Sure. So we arrived in Venezuela. I'm like, how do we do it?
Starting point is 01:21:56 And they're like, you can't. It's illegal. You can't do it. The official exchange rate was like $1 was $7, but they were like, that's insane because it's actually like $70. So a guy smuggled in money. So you need 70 bills per dollar. Yeah, something like that. So we had
Starting point is 01:22:10 garbage bags filled with money, and we'd have to pull out huge stacks and literally pay at a restaurant like nuts. It's crazy in that hyperinflationary environment too because those people, there's no such thing as savings. It's like you have to spend the money instantly. The moment you get it,
Starting point is 01:22:26 it's like you spend it. Well, honestly, because tomorrow that loaf of bread is like five stacks of money instead of four stacks of money. Have you guys been watching Sword Futures? Woo-hoo! Limit up through the roof. I saw like four or five swords. Did you see actually
Starting point is 01:22:41 Venezuela that Biden's now trying to fix the oil stuff by buying oil from Venezuela? Desperation, man. Yikes. And I'm just imagining like Maduro is like sitting in his office and he's got like his belly hanging out and he's eating empanadas. And like the phone rings and it's Biden and he's like, shh, shh, shh, shh. He's like, it's Joe Biden. They're like, oh.
Starting point is 01:22:59 And like everyone's sitting around. He picks the phone up and he's like, yes. And Joe's like, come on, man. We really need some oil, man. We're hurting here. Then he's like, let's negotiate. Call me the tin man because I need to be oiled, pal. They're all cheering and celebrating.
Starting point is 01:23:12 We finally won. We held out long enough. Yeah, oil. Oil me. He goes, who is this? Oil me. Hello? It says White House on my phone.
Starting point is 01:23:21 It says White House. Oil me. No, I'm just kidding, man. It's your old friend Joe. No, he's sitting in a wheelchair with a blank on his lap. Oil me. They're like, what? Oil. They're like, oh, it's Joe.
Starting point is 01:23:34 It's Joe. It's the oil man. It's your old pal Joe the oil man. I love when they announce that they're going to be like, they've done this a couple times, we're releasing strategic reserves and it's like, we're going to be releasing 10 million barrels and it's like, dude, that's a day. Yeah, they said 60 million barrels. We're releasing strategic reserves. And it's like, we're going to be releasing 10 million barrels. And it's like, dude, that's a day. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:23:47 He said 60 million barrels, three days worth of oil. Yeah. Do you think he's just going by I didn't do nothing? What do you think gas is going to hit? 11.50. 11.50 again. I think it'll hit 11.50 before people go insane. You start seeing revolts.
Starting point is 01:24:03 I just went out. I bought a couple Teslas just to make sure. You know what? We'll keep someone in the garage. I'm kidding. You don't have a Tesla? I do have a Tesla. Yeah, okay. But I was thinking about buying a couple Teslas. That's funny. He's like, I bought some Teslas. You bought one? No.
Starting point is 01:24:17 Do you have a Tesla? Yeah. I do have one. I'm allowed to have one, Ryan. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, but it is true That's the I don't know All this stuff is funny Yo yo This is why I bought the Tesla
Starting point is 01:24:27 No joke So I bought it I think How long Was it a year Year and a half ago maybe At least yeah No it was one year ago I think
Starting point is 01:24:33 One year ago Could you get Elon on Timco I'd love to But I specifically was telling people like I think I'm going to go buy A Tesla right now Specifically because I think gas is going to go nuts Yeah
Starting point is 01:24:44 And I was talking about it all last year For a variety of reasons Now here we are They're saying Gas is higher than it's ever been to go buy a tesla right now specifically because i think gas is going to go nuts yeah and i was talking about it all last year for a variety of reasons now here we are they're saying gas is high than it's ever been it's like seven dollars in la county and now in the average is like 450 i think and they're saying it's going to get worse because all of this happening with gas happened before the banning of russian oil imports joe biden is so desperate he's asking venezuela for help yeah that's how it's always perfect storm what about buying a bunch of gas and just having it all stored in your lawn? Someone did that in Chicago when I was a kid. They took a bunch of 50-gallon drums and they filled it with gasoline and put it in their basement.
Starting point is 01:25:14 Because this was back when gas hit. Accidentally lit a smoke. And then the house exploded. No, you know what? That actually happened. It did. Let me pull it up. You know, so remember when oil went negative two years ago? You know what's so crazy is that in the last two years, oil has gone from negative $40 a barrel to up to, I think, what were we at?
Starting point is 01:25:32 $150 is what we hit? $140 or something? So it was right when COVID hit and then oil futures, like the April contract or something, literally because demand just disappeared. Like there was like, yeah, nobody's flying, nobody's driving, there's no demand. And so you could straight up, they would pay you, like if you bought an oil contract, which means you actually have to take delivery of a barrel of oil. Like when you buy an oil futures contract, like you're like, yeah, when this expires, you have to go pick up from Cushing, a barrel of oil and so normally like you know it's 140 right now you pay 140 and then you go pick it up they were like come pick these
Starting point is 01:26:10 up we'll pay you 40 what to take away but so then all these people on reddit were like how are we gonna we could probably make like a fortune on this you know we just have to store it but you're like you can't store crude oil in your garage it's like the smells that come off of it and like you need like yeah but you need like real facilities and there was all these people like scheming yeah yeah if it was so easy they would be doing it well yeah but you go first off you got to go get a truck go to coaching oklahoma like show up there load up and then store it until the and i'm sure somebody who had everything set up did do that that's why i should have got tim for his birthday just like a bucket of oil yeah i'm trying to find the story i
Starting point is 01:26:49 can't find it it happened too long ago i guess but there was like there was some oil trade somebody was trading oil contracts and then his like account he had like you know ten thousand dollars in account and then he was he bought these uh he bought oil at one cent a barrel because he goes it's one cent a barrel it's like he didn't realize that it could a barrel because he goes it's one cent a barrel it's like he didn't realize that it could go negative he just goes it's one cent can't go below one cent right and then he like logs into his like interactive brokers account and he's like down a million dollars oh wow and they they actually that's some shit i would do you know what though but they forgave everybody in that scenario because they were like you know we never told
Starting point is 01:27:23 anybody that you could go negative. Like there's no negative in a brokerage account. You go to zero. Yeah. Right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, he just got a wild margin call kind of thing. He literally, interactive brokers called him.
Starting point is 01:27:33 They go, you owe us a million dollars. And he's like, what? I don't have a million dollars. And how did you let my account go negative a million? And they go, well, oil is minus $40 a barrel. I'm looking at cost. No, that's nuts. Crude oil cost for oil.
Starting point is 01:27:45 It looks like it's like $120 right now. Yeah, so it's $120. It was minus $40. $108 right now. They were paying you to take it off. If you would show up and take away a barrel of oil, they would hand you $40. That's because it was going bad, basically. You guys see that video?
Starting point is 01:27:57 No, they just had to, you know, they had to. Going bad. It goes bad. Evaporating. It does. No, no, no. Because Trump bought, not at minus, but around then, he bought a bunch. And I was listening to him on the NELC thing, and he was saying. Heaporating. It does. No, no. Because Trump bought not at minus, but around then he bought a bunch. And I was listening to him on the NELC thing and he was saying-
Starting point is 01:28:07 He's got a big supply. He filled up the strategic reserves and he says they keep it in Louisiana in these mines under the ground. Do you guys see that video of the guy pouring gas into his pickup truck? Uh-huh. Into the bed? No. He lined the pickup bed with a tarp and he was just pouring it in.
Starting point is 01:28:24 Some good old white trash fun. People were like, dude, don't do that, and he was just pouring it in. Some good old white trash fun. People were like, dude, don't do that. And he was like, shut up. And then he gets in the car and drives, and it just splashes back and forth. Of course. I mean, you've seen when someone does that with a kiddie pool in there. Right. This one I can pull up.
Starting point is 01:28:37 This one I can pull up for sure. Check this out. That's like chemical weapon thing. Oh, my. That's gross. That's toxic. Look at it. Wow. That's gross. That's toxic. Wow. That's amazing. Stupid humans.
Starting point is 01:28:50 Yeah, he's actually filling the bed of his truck. Of course he's got a ponytail. I was going to say, he looks tiny. Is that Jazz? Jazz is leaking out of the backseat? Yeah, look at that. It's dripping out. What is this? This was a human seat. Yeah, look at that. Oh! No. It's dripping out. What is this?
Starting point is 01:29:06 This is a human being. That guy's a human. Why would he do that? This guy's not a human being. Now do you guys understand Bill Gates? You've got to say something. I do. I understand why the Romans called people plebeians.
Starting point is 01:29:16 Like, there was the elite class, and then everyone else they called plebeians, because they were like, wait till he drives. Is that by LAX? I think so. This guy's got a cable access conspiracy podcast that only his aunt listens to. Just don't let them know what's going on. It is terrifying to think there are people out there like this. I love this bullshit.
Starting point is 01:29:32 You're not safe. You're going to cause a big accident. Just beat it, will you? What's he going to do with all that gas? Why are you doing that? It's not safe and they're going to call the cops. I'm going to get as much gas as I can. Dude, it's not that serious.
Starting point is 01:29:53 This guy rules. If somebody throws a lit match in here, it's going to blow. Well, I don't think a lit match can go off in liquid gas. No. It's the fumes though look at this how are they letting you do it? this guy's rocking yeah they're the Karens watch this you guys ready for this watch it move watch it move he's gonna drive All right, here he goes.
Starting point is 01:30:26 Oh, no, he's going too fast. It's splashing around. What is he doing? Someone steps on the brakes in front of him. Where is he going with it? They're following him now? Oh, you have to. Where do you think he's going? Yeah, of course.
Starting point is 01:30:36 Well, now they've got a high-speed pursuit. I know, right? Very low speed. Oh! Oh! Tragedy. Dude, that guy's wife told him that he can't take the gas and he's proving her wrong right now this this is for those that are just listening it's a pickup truck truck full of gas and he turns left and it all just flies out over the right side these are human beings man dude and
Starting point is 01:31:00 so so you know what what luke needs to understand lucid casket we're changed he's understand he needs to watch that and then go and read about what Bill Gates' plans are or whatever he thinks they are. Then you understand Klaus Schwab. You understand these powerful elites. Don't you sympathize with them now after watching that? Yeah, as a powerful elite, I get it. I get it. The eaters.
Starting point is 01:31:21 Is that what they call those people? Eaters? People who just consume stupidly and do dangerous stuff? I don't know if they actually call them that. Takers. They're The eaters. Is that what they call those people? Eaters? People who just consume stupidly and do dangerous stuff? I don't know if they actually call them that. Takers. They're called takers. They don't give. They take.
Starting point is 01:31:31 I'd love to see Klaus Schwab do the circuit of all the late night shows just to be like, hey, guys, I'm totally misunderstood. Go on Colbert. Oh, that'd be great. His doom, his crazy futuristic leather. And he's like, I don't want people to die i just want to take away their fuel so they starve and then there's this book called ishmael alex jones came in and was talking it was like i'm a gorilla murder you know and he's talking about like
Starting point is 01:31:55 ishmael ishmael's a psychic gorilla that's talking to the student town in the book there's givers and there's takers and humanity is divided amongst them i think that we're looking at like 99.98 takers in society right now just receiving electricity receiving food not really providing for the future yeah or what was that guy's top and a bottom that guy must have just set a record for at the pump like that was probably not although you know what the price of gas right now we're the idiots even if you lost half of that that guy's still ahead this guy's honestly listening right now being like, yo, you know how much I'm up? I have this all sitting in my... He sold it.
Starting point is 01:32:29 He drove back to the gas station. He did that every day. He's like, I was doing that every day last year. He drives it from one gas station to another, puts the pump in, and it sucks it back up into their pump, and it reverses the counter. Or maybe he's about to open his own artisanal gas station. Oh, he's starting his own gas station. He goes there, and he's like, I've been stocking upisanal gas station. Oh, he's starting his own gas station. He goes there.
Starting point is 01:32:45 He's like, I've been stocking up. America gas. The finest gas. Patriot's gas. Yeah. We had this bit we wanted to do as a joke about Bill Gates being mildly inconvenienced. And so that's like all of the crazy conspiracy ideas people have about him. It's just like –
Starting point is 01:33:01 He's on gear, right? He's super ripped. You hear Joe Rogan talking about him? He's on gear, right? He's super ripped. You hear Joe Rogan talking about him? He's geared up. Joe was saying how ripped Bill Gates is and how healthy he was and how he should be giving everybody medical advice because he's a very healthy individual. I'm kidding. He looks like a guy.
Starting point is 01:33:15 It was the opposite, actually. It was the opposite, actually. It's only a, you know, he's only eaten like sugary cereal with no milk for all three meals a day. He just has a handful of Count Chocula. A lot of kicks. Yeah, that's what he's been rocking. There's a lot of stitches. No water.
Starting point is 01:33:34 He hasn't touched water in three weeks. He just drinks Gatorade. He likes Gatorade. Did he drink the poo water? He did. Yeah, he made a waterless toilet. Did you see that one? What do you do for African countries? He made a waterless toilet. Did you see that one? What they do at a lot of these environmentalist
Starting point is 01:33:47 organizations is that the toilet is actually the top of the seat is a foot pad. When you sit, the toilet has two levels. It has the seat up top. You sit on the top. Put the upper decker. No, you urinate at the top.
Starting point is 01:34:02 Then you go number two one step down. Flush your number one. Flush your number one. Flush your number – use the number one. Flush your number two. Oh, that's actually kind of smart. Sure. You got to be – well, for girls, it's probably a little harder.
Starting point is 01:34:13 No, the seat is a foot pad. It's a double-layer toilet. There's like a seat on top. So you sit on the top, then you go sit on the top. Like a loft. Yeah, but the problem is when you're sitting – Like a loft toilet. You go, oh, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:34:24 Yeah, convenience. Just sit up there. Let out the number Yeah, but the problem is when you're sitting – It's like a loft. You go, oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah, convenience. Just sit up there. Let out the number one, not the number two. Okay, there's a lot of you. No, I think what you do is – I couldn't hold it. I go, yeah, I mean, I'll try. When you got to go number one, you go on top.
Starting point is 01:34:37 When you got to go one and two, you go on the bottom. And then you're using other people's number one to – And if you're just a freak, you go one low below that. The upper decker. using other people's number one to and if you're just a freak you go one low below that the upper decker if you go if you're a real freak you go on the mechanics trolley take it into orbit how about we go to super chats one level below that when you go to super chats if you haven't already my friends smash that like button subscribe to this channel and share the show with your friends we're gonna have a raucous members only segment coming up what is this guy water oh you want
Starting point is 01:35:08 water over there in the fridge i think can you grab me one of those i don't know if we have these upstairs there was yeah these are we have these um someone asked me what these were actually this is a numa clean hydration those are good i'm gonna get one give me the chocolate mint one right you really like those there's no chocolate mint the chocolate mint one, Ryan. You really like those? I don't have them. There's no chocolate mint? No chocolate mint. So it's weird. Chocolate mint sports drink. This one's lemonade.
Starting point is 01:35:35 It's like coconut water, lemon juice, Himalayan pink salt, stevia, organic cordyceps mushroom extract, and ashwagandha. Oh. Luke is a huge fan of the ashwagandha. I like ashwagandha. I think ashwagandha is good. There you go. It helps you increase testosterone. Oh, excellent.
Starting point is 01:35:43 Oh, wow. All right. We're going to have that members only segment coming up, and we will unleash these fellas. I'm just going to go in here, and then we'll do a super chat. Just push. There you go. I have no game times. All right.
Starting point is 01:35:55 Moves. All right. Let's read some of your guys' super chats while we- While Ryan goes and uses the toilet incorrectly. Yeah, that's right. All right. Talking about toilets. Uses it incorrectly.
Starting point is 01:36:04 We confused him with the thing you were just talking about. Yeah, I'm scared. He goes toilets. Uses it incorrectly. We confused him with the thing you were just talking about. I'm scared. Sorry, just go pee in the top one, right? He's like, Tim was serious about his toilet, right?
Starting point is 01:36:10 He was, yeah. I'll just do that. All right, let's read what we got. What are people saying? Cordyceps? That's what it is, right? Cordyceps.
Starting point is 01:36:18 Cordyceps. It's a type of mushroom. Cordyceps. Yeah. All right, we got a whole bunch of people saying happy birthday frost says happy birthday tim i see the old 690 brewer do a chocolate milk stout those are always
Starting point is 01:36:31 lovely you got to try it buy yourself as many as you can with this thank you very much we did yeah uh old 690 we were drinking that's a local brewery for the state of the union drinking game we did and they have they also have a maple walnut stout. Wow. Do we have that in the house? Yeah, it's downstairs. I do like the stouts. It's like drinking pancakes. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:36:49 It's so good. Yeah, for real. It's like drinking pancakes. These are good. Those are good? I like those too because, you know. That's better, the mint chocolate one. Well, so what happened was I got sick.
Starting point is 01:36:58 I was feeling really messed up. And I wasn't getting better. And my whoop was telling me that I was sick. And I didn't understand what was going on. What's a whoop? So it's like a health fitness tracker. So I was waking up and it was like, you're not recovered. And I was feeling really sick. Something was wrong with me. And I'm like, this is not a normal sickness. Turns out I was dehydrated. And what I didn't realize you can't just drink water. I was eating normal food. I was drinking water. But what
Starting point is 01:37:23 happened is water doesn't have the salts you need to retain fluids. So I was just drinking water and just getting rid of it. And so I got dehydrated and then I had to get saline and they told me to drink Gatorade. And so I did and I instantly felt better and I was like, wow, man. I didn't realize I was dehydrated because I was going to the bathroom. Everything felt normal. And you got to take this stuff seriously. I went to my doctor and he has a don't say Gatorade law that he just passed so we only drink powerade am i no sugar so no added sugar
Starting point is 01:37:50 so it's got a little bit of sugar and that's why i was like all right i don't want to disagree 50 carbs per gatorade or whatever you know i don't want any of that stuff sugar drink sugar water all right let's read we got we got uh happy birthday tim we got happy effing birthday tim thank you very much everybody's telling me it's my birthday. Yes, I am 36. I am. I am old and I am 36 and people are saying happy birthday. We got another super chat. Seth is happy birthday.
Starting point is 01:38:11 Happy, happy birthday. I have not heard you say anything on the crypto bill that Biden is signing. It's a bill. I thought he did an executive order. Executive order. Yeah, I don't. I think it'll only help Bitcoin. I think the government saying they want a digital dollar is going to make Bitcoin stronger.
Starting point is 01:38:25 Well, it did. Apparently, it went down for a second, but it's gone up. Well, when he announced it yesterday, it dipped, and then it got leaked this morning. And then when the actual details came out, everybody was like – Oh, because people thought it was going to be – Everybody thought it was going to be – I mean, dude. Shutting down. Joe Biden goes, hey, I'm coming out with the crypto executive order.
Starting point is 01:38:41 Everybody's like, oh, this is not going to be good. Yep. So I bought a bunch of Bitcoin when they announced the Swift thing. They were like, Russia's getting booted. I was like, oh, I better buy some of this. And then it spiked. And then I bought some more again because I'm just like, you know, I'm really worried about what's going on with the world and the economy. And I'm pretty sure the world economic form types love cryptocurrency.
Starting point is 01:38:58 And then it jumped again. Yeah. I mean, I will say the one thing, a real benefit of it is for all the people who are like refugees or whatever and you need to pack up all your stuff and go to a different country. You can literally – if you have Bitcoin, you can take all your money in your brain. Yeah, if you know – Like if you know your seed phrase, theoretically, where people in the past would have taken their diamonds and sewn them into their jacket or their gold or whatever. You can just take all your money and in your brain transport it. Do you know about like – what is it called when there's an escalation between the police and the
Starting point is 01:39:28 criminals i don't know but you start wearing bulletproof vests the bad guys start using you know armor piercing bullets you start driving trucks they start you know using things that can like shut down trucks or get inside of them you start storing your crypto in your brain they start hacking your brain oh yeah you're what is it you've all harari that's the world economic farm form guy he's saying blatantly that we're we're hacking brain yeah i watch isn't that what the neural net thing the give me your keys bro you guys are gonna you got you guys are gonna plug into neural link same as everybody else dude being having a clear brain is gonna be so you mean me and him like will and you won't kind of thing i probably will too oh like people. Like people don't realize. I thought you were saying like,
Starting point is 01:40:05 look at you two bitches. Well, you're Canadian, so I figured you'd be a bit more junior. Look at your sheep. I just plug your head. A lot of people are just plugging immediately. It's like, a lot of people are going to say no,
Starting point is 01:40:17 for sure. A lot of people who are watching probably will say no, for sure. I think the benefits problem, it depends on, you know, there are elements where I'm like if i plugged in
Starting point is 01:40:26 and all of a sudden all my comedy documents are kind of like right there and i could you know i could see myself no that you don't even that is they're saying apple's gonna have a contact lens that'll right that'll straight up it'll be a contact lens and then it'll be like augmented reality no but i won't you guys i'm not gonna i wouldn't enter it for the cool I would enter it for if I really am like this is going to make my life so much better. How about this? So if they're going to be looking at my info, I would really have to be like, all right, my life is going to be so much better. That's what Zuckerberg knows that too. You guys are missing one key component.
Starting point is 01:40:58 So first, I don't think – yes. I don't think they're going to be like forcefully putting chips in people's brains. It's going to start with kids. Young kids, they're going to ask the parents. Put kids in your brain. Do you want – and it's not going to be a machine. It's going to be a port. So Neuralink or whatever, they're not going to come out and say we're implanting a computer in your brain we can access.
Starting point is 01:41:15 They're going to say it's a port and you don't have to connect anything to it. You can choose what to interface with if you want to. And what will eventually get people is if we get to the point where we can simulate reality in your mind, yo, everybody will do it. And then it'll be like USB in cars where it'll be obsolete in five years. I don't want that. Oh, you don't have the right porn.
Starting point is 01:41:32 Sure, but that doesn't interest me. But kids will. What if you could click a button and live 50 years in an hour? But you are committed to those 50 years of thought and it's actually like living 50 years. And then you wake up and it's back to 50 years ago in your room. Sure.
Starting point is 01:41:50 It's like a prison sentence almost. O'Reilly's brother in Oz, that's what happened. Oh, wow. Why would it be mandatory? So you've got to look at how things are implemented, right? When the iPhone came out, it was revolutionary. And all of a sudden, everybody was like, I want this thing. It's got a camera on it.
Starting point is 01:42:04 It's got a GPS on it. It's got a GPS on it. They know where you're going, and no one cared. They literally track you and spy on you. They can spy on the microphones. It's different than your thoughts, though. Yo, yo, check it out. It is, but people won't think. They won't think, like, you're stealing my thoughts.
Starting point is 01:42:19 They'll say, well, yeah, they have access to it, but who's actually looking at my thoughts? How many of your thoughts do you write down? How many of your thoughts do you write to people? Do you guys know what shadow profiles are? No. Facebook has a profile on people who never signed up. So if you, Danny, you sign up for Facebook Messenger, it says, hey, can we help you find your friends? And you put yes.
Starting point is 01:42:40 It sends all of your phone numbers to Facebook along with all of their names. They see mom 555 1234 and they say danny's mom is 555 1234 someone else signs up and they put sister they put sister and then it says john's sister is 555 1234 now they know who your uncle is then you'll get someone says they start connecting and then it'll say janice co-worker and they'll be like now we know her name's janice we know where she works and they connect, they make that profile and your mom may have never signed up. People don't realize how easy it is to capture all that information. So right now they know what you're thinking, even though you've never interfaced your brain. For real, like Facebook knows when you have to
Starting point is 01:43:16 poop. I'm not exaggerating. I was reading a story about how Facebook actually figured it out because they can track where you go. They know what time you eat because they know where you're at. They know what time you get to work every day and the ai can basically be like it is there's a 97 certainty that this person is going to the bathroom show them an ad for the squatty potty and they do and then people so people are just like how did i get an ad for this tv it's not because they're listening to what you're saying it's because they know what you're thinking they're getting so good at predicting that's like the cambridge analytics Yeah, there was that story about a guy who started seeing mail come in for his daughter about being pregnant in maternity clothes. So he complained. I think it was to
Starting point is 01:43:51 Target. I'm not sure. And he was like, why are you sending maternity advertisements to my daughter? And they're like, sir, it's an automated system. If the system detected she was pregnant, they sent her the ads. She didn't even know she was pregnant. She was searching things like weight gain or bloated or vomiting. And the algorithm understood those things meant pregnancy. And before she realized that they were sending her ads for it. So here's what will happen. Yeah, there's a lot of stuff. Kids are going to get these and they're going to be like, I don't understand what the problem is. And you're going to be like, we'll be old guys. And they're going to be like, don't you use Neuralink? And they're gonna be walking around seeing crazy stuff. And then we're going to get
Starting point is 01:44:23 these like, it's going to be called like Masterlink or whatever. And then we're going to be walking around seeing crazy stuff. And then we're going to get these like – it's going to be called like Master Link or whatever. And then we're going to be old people with these weird bulky external things you put on your neck. And we're like, I can't figure out how to work the dang widget. And your grandkid is going to be like, let me help you, Grandpa. Why don't you get a modern – Put it in your nose, yeah. And you're going to be like, I don't know. I just like this one.
Starting point is 01:44:39 It works. And the buttons are bigger. I would imagine if you interact with someone that has the neural net, they're going to be tracking your behavior for the company, and then it'll get to a point. So if you look in my eyes and you're in the neural net, the neural net's going to read my thoughts because you're looking in my eyes with your net. And then it'll be to the point where we have to do it for defense.
Starting point is 01:45:00 You have to always be recording everyone else's thoughts around you or the person's vulnerable. Then it's going to be like everyone's thoughts are i'm just i'm just saying you people don't realize it but when you get the option they're like how would you like to be a level 90 wizard who can throw fireballs from your hand just plug in the neural link enter skyrim 7 and you are literally feeling and experience the battle against well and there'll be so much to do you know so many people for work it'll just be like mandatory where you go you know that the meetings are going to take place in that and you go okay well that's like i don't want to work i mean that is like five years away or less well but maybe not well yeah because they'll say you
Starting point is 01:45:38 can't discriminate but the person with the net is going to be able to do five times the workload but you won't even be able to you won't even be able to enter the online meeting board unless you get on the internet. No, they won't hire you. They're going to be like, we do require Neuralink. Is that okay? And people are going to be like, yeah, sure. It's fine. It'll be the vaccination.
Starting point is 01:45:53 It'll be a discrimination thing, a Supreme Court case. Then in 30 years when the first Neuralinked person is on the Supreme Court is when we're in hell. No, it'll be a states thing where a bunch of states are okay with it. Republicans are like you can't force people to Neuralink. You got to learn how to clear your mind. That's key. Meditation because if they are measuring your thoughts, have no thought. That's the oldest yeah, that's the only
Starting point is 01:46:15 It comes full circle. So you're saying girls are safe. Women's Day. Ryan, it's Happy International Women's Day. Let's grab some super chats. We got Christina H. saying, Happy birthday, Tim. When are the Rage on Behalf of the Machine parody songs coming out?
Starting point is 01:46:29 P.S. The website has also been a member since pretty much the beginning. Highly recommend to anyone that sees this. Thank you very much. I think maybe you guys should do... The Gay Parade! Rage on Behalf of the Machine. Do you guys see what Ethan Klein was saying about me? He's on Parade.
Starting point is 01:46:44 I've seen you guys fighting a bit well i don't tweet at him i don't care oh no i did a tweet ha ha ha in response but i tweeted zelensky he did the red salute and i don't want to do it but he i was like i'm not sure if he's supporting communism or black lives matter and it's like very clearly joking i think and and uh ethan klein was like tim's trying to claim that zelensky is a communist for using the universal sign of resistance. And I'm like, bro, if Walmart is using that sign, you're not resisting anything. Like you're the machine, dude.
Starting point is 01:47:10 Right. You're not resistance. It's so weird. Is that the universal sign? No, it's not. The red salute is literally the communist salute. Yeah. It would be like if someone was like, well, and I've heard the alt-right people say this, that you see them at protests and they'll be like, it's not a Nazi salute.
Starting point is 01:47:28 It's the Roman salute. And I'm like like mean same thing to everybody else yeah i mean the communist to the fist it's the guy out there being like no this is the buddhist swastika it's like sure but have that argument at every party yeah your own peril all right let's read some more we got rob maddy says i'd love to see you have randall carlson on to discuss the great floods in atlantis would be nice to get away from the seriousness of the world for a day. Pretty sure Ian would have a blast with him. That would be really fun for like a Friday show where we usually like chill and talk about crazy stuff. Talk about the great flood. It would be good.
Starting point is 01:47:53 I do want to refocus people to really, if we really want to come together as a human race about real problems, comet impacts. They wiped out the human race once before almost, so I don't want it to happen again. Andrew Knapp says, rule of acquisition number one, once you have their money, never give it back. And that's the Ferengi. Does he work for Blink? Yes. So Blink Fitness, you guys may not know this, but they were actually founded by Ferengi. Are you familiar with the Ferengi?
Starting point is 01:48:17 Yeah. In Star Trek, they were a capitalist. You're a Jew in Star Trek, right? No. I'm Jewish. It's fine. I thought that was the deal. The Ferengi
Starting point is 01:48:26 are easily described as a nation or people that abide by caveat emptor. Let the buyer beware. And so they're just... Dude, I love Star Trek The Next Generation.
Starting point is 01:48:37 So you've got all these different alien races that discover technology. The humans discover warp technology after a civil war and then the Vulcans come in. The Ferengi bought it it right it's cool they made this capitalist race and they had a planet and when people when traders came they were like we want warp drive so they don't understand the
Starting point is 01:48:54 technology all that well they're an underdeveloped society but they're really good at haggling mercantilism and stuff like that right right right and they're and they're and they basically steal like sounds like my landlord do they have really good perception is that what it is really good hearing or something and they can like read their i don't know i don like my landlord. Do they have really good perception? Is that what it is? Really good hearing or something? And they can read their other people's deal? I don't know about that, but they have big ears. And then it's a thing in Star Trek where if you rub their ears, it's erotic or something.
Starting point is 01:49:13 Oh, my gosh. Oh, yeah. I do remember that. Yeah. Unforgettable. But the funny thing is- It's sort of like someone selling the Versace purse. They don't really know what's going on with the Versace, but they do know what the market
Starting point is 01:49:23 value is. Just rub my ears. All right. Common Sense says, if the biolabs are harmless, simple labs focused on food, et cetera, why would the U.S. fear them falling into Russian hands unless they were bioweapons? That's exactly what I was saying earlier because the official statement from the U.S. government was we did help construct biolabs, biosafety level two in Ukraine, but it's for food safety. Why then would – well, I suppose it's separate then from what the Ukraine is doing. So this is probably the point. The labs the US constructed, they're saying they're BSL-2. The labs the US are concerned about are the BSL-4s
Starting point is 01:49:58 where the Ukraine is working on stuff. But then I have questions about, you know, people have brought this point. Do you really think Ukraine is not getting support from the U.S. for bioweapons research? Like if Ukraine is building these labs and engaging this stuff, the U.S. has got to be involved in some way. Considering they're on the border of Russia? Yeah. Yeah. Maybe not, though.
Starting point is 01:50:14 Maybe not. Krang says, boys, boys, boys, boys, boys. Fellas. Boys. The boys can't. It's about time we got a podcast just for boys. You know what I mean? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:50:23 Yeah. I've been saying that forever. I mean, they've had all the murder podcasts for girls. Now there's for boys. You know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah, I've been saying that forever. I mean, they've had all the murder podcasts for girls. Now there's murder for boys. Isn't it weird that women love murder podcasts? Yeah, it's a little creepy. Why is that?
Starting point is 01:50:36 I don't know if you know this, but this is a tip for Women's Day, too, that women are most likely to be murdered by their husbands, which is why you should never marry your chick to keep her safe. Even if it's been 10, 15 years and her parents are pressuring you, your parents are pressuring you, I would never do that to her. And even if you do propose, then go to the store, get milk, never come back. Your life is important. The more you know. Freedom over safety.
Starting point is 01:50:57 Stay safe. A lot of people saying happy birthday, so I really do appreciate it. Happy birthday. Your freedom over safety. That's right. All right. What do we got here? Chris Stark says, if you go to the partners page on the weforum.org, you'll find that
Starting point is 01:51:10 all of the companies that pull out of Ukraine are with the World Economic Forum. Also is BlackRock and Blackstone as well as Cisco. Very interesting. Creepy. The thong song guy? Yeah, Cisco. That's right. The thong song guy.
Starting point is 01:51:22 You can't listen to thong song in Russia anymore. No, Cisco is like the biggest supplier of food, I yeah oh not the cisco system oh it might be cisco systems yeah for sure oh yeah right right it's the wrong i'm i'm thinking of the food thing you know what's crazy though is that like when you go to a diner the food is almost always identical because it's one company that supplies them with all their you know all their ingredients really yeah it's that Cisco. The other Cisco is like S-Y-S or something. This one is Cisco CIS. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:51:50 That's the computers. Maybe the conspiracy is that they're actually one company working together on our food and security. Oh. All right. Adam S says, Tim, Monero is the future, not Bitcoin. You said it was tracked with the Bitfinex hackers, but not true. It was not necessarily to track Monero to catch them. I would elaborate, but superchats are too short.
Starting point is 01:52:07 The feds claim they were able to see their Monero accounts, based on what they did, and they knew where the money was going. Maybe not true. Maybe they lied. James Cutbirth says, Tim, I had allergies for most of my life until I started eating about five years ago. Local raw honey. It will save your life.
Starting point is 01:52:23 Jamie from Hillsborough, Oregon. I did eat some local honey. It doesn't anything like i get oh i've done that too you know when i was time every year i get as soon as the trees just you know and all the cars are covered it's like flu symptoms but it's like it's it's it's the same i don't get any sicker or less sick it's just like instantly i'm sick and then eventually it just stops there's a day every year where the trees like all the pollen is just released i was up in cypress hill above the tree line and one day my windows were open all this yellow pollen came flying through covering all my surfaces maybe that was today my grandma my grandmother told me a story she had bad asthma and she lived in i think russia and she said there was a month every year because it was before like
Starting point is 01:53:03 met allergy medication a month every year she had to go to the Black Sea because she's like, I couldn't literally live where I lived. National Women's Day. Allergy medicine doesn't do anything. I have the same thing with you. I don't get stuffed up. I only get itchy eyes. That's it.
Starting point is 01:53:16 I had really – my eyes were itching like crazy last night. Yeah, dude. Can't sleep. It's like – Benadryl does work though. Yeah. I'll let you know. I took some – I took a couple different
Starting point is 01:53:25 allergy medicines. Eat no bread. Cut the bread and sugar out. Try hydrating. The only thing that I found of everything I've tried that worked is the Benadryl. You know what? I tried eating Papa John's and it didn't work. I had a bunch of pizza
Starting point is 01:53:40 on my birthday and it didn't work. You ate all that bread? It didn't stop your allergies? Yeah, for some reason I felt worse. Danny's eyes are always crying a little bit and I say it's because of inflation. Yeah, and I've been right this whole time. There you go.
Starting point is 01:53:56 We've been making that joke for five years. Yeah, you're right. Now it is. Chickens are coming home to roost, Ryan. All right. Chickens out. Paul Wallace says, MIT is now polymerizing a material in two dimensions. Stronger than steel and light as plastic can be used in everything
Starting point is 01:54:09 super cheap to make. Tell me about it. Maybe we'll make lighter than air vessels that are not powered. So like Ian was mentioning, like an aerogel, like a gigantic aerogel.
Starting point is 01:54:22 But if you were inside of it, it would be... But if it... No, no. If it's really, really big, it'll displace the air to the point where the air pressure pushes it up. like a gigantic aerogel but if you were inside of it it'd be then it would be but if no no if it's really really big it'll displace the air to the point where the air pressure pushes it up yeah so it can lift you if so look at like big enough look at tankers right is that possible look at look how big tankers are how do they stay floating when they're they weigh like hundreds or thousands of tons what does take away thousands of tons tens of thousands yeah tens of thousands they're cities man because they can't displace the water it's like even though they're massively heavy
Starting point is 01:54:49 they're too they're too uh they also have water in the sealed in the hall i know that because we watched one of those uh the netflix with the the cocaine f1 guy or whatever yeah you can use it as ballast yeah the guy who was like a big f1 he was like or not f1 he was an indycar driver who was also this giant cocaine smuggler and he would do it in that compartment and it was full at the bottom of the boats full so you can have a vehicle that's heavier than air but because it's so it's so it's like not dense to a certain degree as long as rigid enough and strong enough for you to stand on it would be so wide that it wouldn't be able to push enough air out of the way and the air would lift it up. It would float.
Starting point is 01:55:26 And you'd float to the top of the atmosphere basically. There's these hydrogels. They're working on all these cool metamaterials where they'll take like aerogel, which is lighter, almost as light as air, if not lighter, and then they'll take hammer
Starting point is 01:55:36 and they'll just smash it and machine it. It's super strong. So I imagine you can make chambers out of that and then vacuum them out and create some sort of buoyancy. Beautiful Bacon says, if there is any sword that is destined to be used to cut grass it is the master sword yeah i was thinking about sharpening it we got it from a mall we probably we probably need to redo the hilt and everything and like actually make out of wood or we can stick it into a stone and
Starting point is 01:55:59 then like solidify it and leave it in the woods and pull it yeah yeah it we need to put it in there so the idea i had was to use a magnet and then make it so that if you know where to push down, it releases it so you can pull it out in front of people and then put it back in and release the paddle and then they walk up and they can't remove it. It's like only you are worthy. Or like a hook or something in there that hooks it.
Starting point is 01:56:19 Something where it's just like... Well, then they'd see the hole and they'd be like, oh, there's a thing in there. But you do a really strong magnet, you can't pull it out. That'd be fun. It would be fun and funny. Fun for kids.
Starting point is 01:56:27 CS says, honey is a natural antiseptic. Happy birthday. It is. We also bought a lot of honey. And for some reason, Ian bought a lot of vinegar. Dude. I like to bring that up. Honey and vinegar.
Starting point is 01:56:36 I have no idea what vinegar is for. Dude, when I was recovering from COVID, I took a huge scoop of honey and I just ate it. And it was like the most magical taste I've ever had of honey. And then I took another scoop and it was like, no, no, it's too much honey. Too much sugar. Shocked. All right. Crimson seven says Tim can't buy a subscription for timcast.com. Cause I did that four months ago. Yeah. Thank you very much. Happy birthday. And thank you guys for all that you do there. Uh, you know, I'll mention too, for anybody having any issues, just, you know, email members at timcast.com. We are absolutely working our hardest to make sure everyone's getting their issues resolved. We're trying to, I don't want
Starting point is 01:57:08 to say too much for security reasons, but we're working on a resilience and security program. And we'll give a shout out to the people that we're working with once we have it all configured. But basically the goal is to be uncancellable. And so this means we're like building out systems that might cause bugs sometimes, but we have to do it. We have to do it. Otherwise, one day you wake up and your bank's closed or something. The average weight of a cargo ship is about 10,000 tons from World War II. How does that float? Well, it's wide, so it can't push enough water out of the way, so the water pushes it back up.
Starting point is 01:57:38 And the average weight of my ex-wife? Oh, wow. Exactly the same. You have an ex-wife? Also 10,000 tons. I was trying to mix it up from my Danny's mom's jokes. It's getting late. I wanted to give people some of the street-ish.
Starting point is 01:57:51 All right. Some of that good old-fashioned street jokes. Dan C says, Tim, if you're looking for more swords, check out Skalagrim. People send him medieval weapons to review on his channel all the time, and he's always trying to get rid of all the swords he has. Oh, interesting. That's cool. Yeah, super cool.
Starting point is 01:58:07 We're going to have like a cool sword room or something. You know. Merry Birthmas, says Brownie Ninja. Thank you very much for the Merry Birthmas. Raymond G. Stanley Jr. says, this is a live stand-up comedy from BoyzCast. Thank you. That it is, the BoyzCast in the house.

Starting point is 01:59:20 That's one of Roberto's harem, right? So Roberto Jr. runs over and chases Dorothy who's like, no. And Roberto Jr. won't take an over answer. So he jumps on top of her. Roberto screams. And then Roberto runs over. Roberto Jr. runs away scared. Roberto then looks at Dorothy and jumps on her after him because he's like – I do this.
Starting point is 01:59:41 Roberto Jr. jump kicks Roberto, knocking him off the head, and then he runs away. Dude, if you have not watched Chicken City. So it's getting wild. Dude, it's like Game of Thrones. It's like Game of Thrones. So does someone have to go through and pick the good parts? So does someone go through and pick the good parts? We just live stream it.
Starting point is 01:59:56 No, but how do you know that happened? Did you catch that or did someone tell you? People clipped it. We're posting it. They were like, dude, look at this. And then there's other stuff where you can see one of the chickens walk up to Roberto and peck at his waddle because it's dirty and like groom him and like clean him or whatever so there's like there's some emotion you know what
Starting point is 02:00:10 i mean like you get a lot going on over there yeah yeah the drama the game of a will they won't they yeah exactly this is the second time in two days that the power must be flickering i think it doesn't like you talking about the chickens yeah yeah chicken city on youtube man so we're working on the night vision cameras. We have them already. I have a New York. I might do a Rat City. Shout out to everyone coming to the Chicken City live stream. What's up, everybody?
Starting point is 02:00:33 Just film out the window. I just put a GoPro in the subway. No, just put out your window. There goes one. Shout out to Terry O in the Chicken City live stream chat. What's up, dudes? The next season of Chicken City, we got 56 babies about to hatch right and so what we'll try to do is we'll try to get a live stream on the babies as they're hatching for chicken city which is in like a week just get a wild you know get a wild animal put
Starting point is 02:00:55 like a wolverine and just have like massacre at chicken city the animals won't come over here though because so here's the thing i want to mention if if you're listening to chicken city like at some point during the day where i work work, there's a window and I can see Chicken City. So I'll open the window and just yell at the chickens because I know people are listening in the stream. But then the other day – What do you yell? Give it to her. No, I yelled –
Starting point is 02:01:15 Out of the way, Roberto. I yelled – Roberto, oh, oh. No, I yelled, Roberto, keep it down because he kept yelling. Show her that Roberto face. I yelled, hey, Roberto, you're a chicken. Yeah. But here's a funny thing.
Starting point is 02:01:28 Do you hear Roberto at 6 in the morning? Oh, yes. 4.30. No, no, no, no, no. He just never stops. I hear Roberto. All day. All day.
Starting point is 02:01:34 And his brother, his son or whatever he is. So you get woken up. In the city. The son's like, oh! That's the junior. Yeah, junior. The other one's more. So they compete with each other.
Starting point is 02:01:44 And they were yelling so much, their voices started cracking. And I'm like, oh, dude, this is getting – we're going to have to separate them or something. But I was yelling, and Dingo, the dog, was outside. And he watches me as I'm yelling, and then I close the window, and I go back to work, and I have Chicken City open. And a minute later, I see him. I look out the window, and I see him, and he goes, rawr, rawr, rawr. And I'm like, that was the dog saying, what the was that?
Starting point is 02:02:08 Opens the window and just yells, like, what's going on? But he pees on the chicken coop, which is really good. It keeps all the predators away. So the chickens don't even realize how good they have it, man. They don't even know. For all we know, we're in Human City right now. And people are watching us. They almost figured it out.
Starting point is 02:02:24 The predators are trying to get in our brains.
