So we were having a hard time figuring out what the lead story was today because the CEO of YouTube is stepping down. And I'm like, that's big news. But at the same time, a local hobbyist balloon club believes, or I should say it is being insinuated, their balloon was shot down by Joe Biden and an F-22. And so the story that Joe Biden may have accidentally shot down some small hobby group's balloon panicking about UFOs is just really, really funny. So we decided to go with that one instead. But at the same time, I wonder, I mean, if they deployed F-22s to shoot down what was just some hobbyist balloon because they were panicking, it makes us look really dumb. But I also have to wonder if they're intentionally distracting us and drumming up some other news story about UFOs to keep our minds off of, say, I don't know, like a gigantic toxic

chemical spill, which is going to pollute the water for five million people in the immediate and then probably pollute the farmland in the water for tens of millions of more in the coming weeks. Or I don't know, maybe Biden's just so incompetent they saw a hobbyist balloon, panicked, thought it was China and blew it up. Well, today's going to be fun. Before we get started talking about all of that, head over to TimCast.com to become a member and support our work directly.

We'll have that up, and it should be a lot of fun. Last night with Jimmy Dore was off the hook. Jimmy just went off, and when he gets into that groove and he starts talking about what's pissing him off. Yeah, it's top tier content, my friend.

Thanks for having me, Tim. So yeah, I'm Sarah Higdon. I'm a content creator. I have a YouTube channel. I'm also a contributor over to Gays Against Groomers. I'm an ambassador to Outspoken USA, as well as I'm the assistant editor for Reality's Last Stand. I also do some freelance writing for the Postmillennial

and Human Events. And I've basically just been traveling the country lately doing speaking events with some of the mom organizations that are trying to end queer theory in our schools. Wow, right on. We actually do have another story about that. There's like a school, I guess, where they tried to transition all of the fifth grade girls. Oh, my goodness. Have you seen this? No.

We'll get into it. We won't do the story. We sometimes get into the story too early. But thanks for hanging out. It should be fun. We also got Libby. She's back. I'm back.

I'm back, everybody. Libby Emmons with the Postmillennial. Glad to be here. Glad to be here with you, Sarah. Yes. I think it's been a while since we were, I think we got trashed in Atlanta. Yeah. Yeah, that was fun.

What's up, everybody? Ian Crossland. Happy to be here. If you haven't seen the new Cast Castle on YouTube, you're going to want to check it out. It's a clip of the actual show on TimCast.com. It was very, very funny. It is pretty good.

It's received quite raucous reviews. I'm very happy. It is poking fun at Steven Crowder and the Daily Wire. All of them. Everybody, nothing's sacred. Nothing's sacred. What's happening, Serge? Yo, I am at Serge.com.

I'm just hanging out, ready to go. All right, let's jump into this first story. Let's not waste any time. This is from Aviation Week Network. Okay, so they got the scoop. While all of us are spinning around in circles being like, UFOs, what's going on? Joe Biden's freaking out. They're deploying F-22s.

They're shooting down unidentified flying objects. And here's my favorite part. The pilot said it had no observable propulsion system. Because balloons don't. I said that. I swear. You watch my segment. I said, when they say there's no propulsion system, it balloons don't. I said that. I swear. You watch my segment. I said, when they say there's no propulsion system, it could be because it's a balloon.

Like there's not going to be a jet on a balloon or anything like that. So they see this big object and like, I wonder how it's flying. And they shoot it down. So here's the story. Hobby Club's missing balloon feared shot down. I'll give you the gist of it. The general idea is the Northern Illinois Bottle Cap Balloon Brigade, NIB, is not pointing fingers yet, but the circumstantial evidence is at least intriguing. and a popular forecasting tool, the HisSplit model provided by NOAA, projected the cylindrically shaped object would be floating high over the central part of the Yukon Territory on February 11th.

That's the same day a Lockheed Martin F-22 shot down an unidentified object of a similar description and altitude in the same general area. Okay. I'm sorry. China's laughing at us right now. Yeah, I think it's cool, though, that there's hobby balloon clubs. This balloon apparently was on its seventh trip around the world. So that's kind of cool for the balloon. It's a shame that it's not there. It is absurd, though, that we used our high. Perhaps, perhaps we used our highest, our highest Air Force tools to shoot down a balloon.

Well, I mean, look, everybody was ragging on Biden over the Chinese balloon. So they started panicking. Now, then they started saying, we think these could these objects could be anything from like used car balloons

or whatever. And it's just like, oh, man. Biden also said today at a press conference, he said that he has no regrets about shooting down the balloons. Of course he doesn't.

Spending $400,000 on a hobby balloon. It doesn't make any sense. Is that how much the missiles cost? I think that's what I read is, uh, uh, whatever. Half a million dollars because they panicked over this balloon.

We are, we are three, three balloons. We are silly people. Well, how big are these balloons? like that doesn't look like that big of a balloon no that's a plastic bag

they said it's like three cars or something like that that's a pico balloon that's what that is that's a pico balloon that's actually it that's a pico balloon

yeah the first thing was the three school buses yeah the way they go the thing they didn't shoot down right away the actual this is the threat right here

I want you to to look at this this dastardly group look at this this woman this this girl's wearing a suit that's how you know they're dangerous this is like the scene but it would be in a comedy like it would be a scene in a comedy movie where it shows like the dejected hobbyists after they get shot down and they're all like real sad about it i'm picturing like those guys in the x the um the x files you know the three guys the research oh what was it uh the lone gunman yeah yeah yeah i'm imagining those guys yeah that kind of like disappointment exactly the lone gunman so what now do our tax dollars have to pay these well we probably should pay them back for their for their balloon i mean so so what it's going to cost us half a million dollar five hundred and one thousand

dollars now this this blunder by joe biden maybe biden should cover the cost what i want to know is there was the other one where the pilot actually missed on the first shot that's right so it's a million dollars shot was that the same type of balloon though was that a real balloon yo could you just imagine they're seeing this silver cylinder and it's just a balloon and they're like ah and they when the missile misses miss miss miss and they're like taking it very seriously yeah we are silly people i think this could be a military exercise though too like i would have thought like if we were going to do this type of stuff we like they would have at least come out and tell us that like you know maybe we're preparing for china to send an emp or something over but then you know it would cause

issues if and so they it went with this alien theme but i could see them trying to lie because usually the lie is better than the than the than the truth they were they were they were doing something over dc the other day i guess everybody was freaking out about that well remember like back in like 2014 or something when the 82nd jumped into texas and everybody thought that the federal government was invading texas oh it's kind of the same type of stuff. There was this thing that happened a few years ago where a bunch of people started, on Twitter,

started posting photos of military vehicles and videos of trains transporting tanks and they all started saying, like, whoa, what's happening? Everybody was in on it and then journalists started seeing all these videos and thinking something was really happening, started actually writing up stories about this.

And it was nothing. They're going to JRTC or something for military operation training. Well, no, no. It was like people took random images. So they take a random image of a field with a guy standing and they'd be like, whoa, new image out of this city or whatever. And like, whoa, now we're hearing that the police are showing up and puts a picture of a squad car. And then someone would be like, the military is being brought in and you see helicopters. And they're all just different random videos

from different time periods but people were claiming were from one moment. Oh my goodness. You know what that's like? That's like that Evelyn Waugh novel, Scoop,

where all the journalists get sent to the war zone and, you know, the main character gets there and there's no war. There's just no war at all. Well, that's like all the deep fake stuff

that's happening too. Yeah, or in Wag the Dog when they're like, we're gonna have a war with albania for to to cover up that the president slept with a firefly girl i i was you know like the other day i was pretty scared about the ai stuff you know and i'm like oh man and then just before this show i saw one of the best ai deep fakes i've ever seen and and i saw now i'm really excited because it was donald trump and joe biden playing overwatch together oh my goodness is that available i want to watch yeah it's on political compass memes on instagram i should pull it up i don't know if i can pull it up because it's gonna let me see if i can get it uh and there's a lot of

swearing in it so just you know but it's too good it's it's it was too good uh there's a lot of swearing in it so let me see if i can get it we were talking about this at a meeting earlier uh this is oh there it is there it is all right you know you're you avert your cover your your kids ears because we're playing this one i was playing overwatch i like overwatch so hold on we got to fix the audio yo this is awesome i i love deepfake now. I love this map. Takes me back. Is that you again, Joe, on my fucking team?

It's this guy. Oh, GG, we lost. This is my rank-up game, too. We are not even out of spawn doors, and this guy is already complaining. Someone dodge, please. You fucking Insta-lock Zen again, and you're gonna feed again. How many accounts do I have to keep fucking avoiding you? You are not beating the hard-stuck master's allegations, Don.

That is so cap, Joe. You know, I was having a really good day today. Don't care. Went golfing, hit a few holes in one. Don't care. Wanted to solo cue some Overwatch to end the day. Don't care. And I see fucking, fucking Bidenator in my lobby.

Bidenator. I can't wait until Biden takes matchmaking. Jesus fucking Christ. Yo, that was the best. That's the reality we need. I saw that, like, right as we were getting ready to do this show, when did they post this? They posted it an hour ago. It's like Kang and Konos from The Simpsons.

I mean, this is one way political. I was golfing. I wanted to end the day with some quick cues and Overwatch, and then I see Bidenator in my chat. We were saying today at a meeting earlier, our development meeting, one of the devs, Tony, was saying, what we really need is to see a deepfake that's terrifying,

where everyone, like, basically realizes the horror that this could wreak on us. Like, someone, I mean, it's just something where everyone, but not that we need to do that to people, but I think in order for us to realize how dangerous this is, this technology. So you're saying. What would be the most horrifying deepfake? Well, so War of the Worlds kind of freaked people out, that Orson Welles thing. People thought we were really being invaded by aliens i disagree uh the the typical mistake people make with with pr campaigns and things like this is that they think shock content alien

invasion world war three people won't believe it it's too out of the ordinary it's got to be something very simple like joe biden giving a speech and saying something like it's got to be something very simple, like Joe Biden giving a speech and saying something like it's got to be in order to get people to understand it's scary and actually get them to believe it. It's got to be something about maybe a banking crisis or like a city has been wiped off the map. No one will believe nuclear strike. No one will believe it. What about people are going to be like, what? And they're going to try and look it up. But if it's a video of Joe Biden saying something like we're growing deeply concerned with the rising inflation rates, which are now expected to reach 11% by the next month,

but the Federal Reserve has given us their word, they will lower the rates and try and get these inflation rates down. People will then start freaking out if Biden says something like, we are worried, but please remain calm, that the cost of basic goods could reach upwards of $10 to $20 for things like a gallon of milk. That's the kind of thing that people would see and be like, it would freak out the average middle class person. Be believable enough to where they go, wait a minute, that was fake? Holy crap. I know that would definitely wreck the economy.

It could potentially wreck the economy for a day. People will sell stocks, could destroy the stock market. But to really scare people, I don't know if that would really scare people. I think the scariest stuff is actually the revenge porn stuff that's happening, the deepfake porn that's putting people's bodies into these films that they didn't consent to. Oh, like a porn of Joe Biden, then.

That would be really scary. I disagree. Look, that stuff exists. You know it's not you and it's not real. I don't know. I can understand it's a it's shocking to people to have that happen to them for sure but i see what you're saying about it being something super normal like something that could definitely be real and is in fact

not real yeah exactly i mean so it's like so it's like imagine if you imagine that like they're the um the information that's been coming out over the past year when things like bacon and milk have gone up and eggs have gone up and all of that and it sort of gets ignored uh by a lot of the press but something like that those things really do have an impact on people that would be interesting or what if he was you know what if biden makes the announcement that we're definitely going to be sending troops into ukraine yes i was gonna say and then it's believable but terrifying it's very believable and then you'd have everybody being like you know it was only in what was it march when biden said there'll be no troops on the ground he said that very definitively he also said there'd be no tanks he also said there'd be no fighter jets what's next and that would that would set off an

international firestorm if if there was a video where it's biden giving a speech and he said something like russian artillery has struck the border of poland triggering article 5 right i as the president of the united states have left with no choice but to deploy u.s forces to assist our partners in nato in the war effort against russia make no mistake by the time the american people we are at war yeah that'd be terrifying no that you can't go too much like if he said russia nuked a city or something people would be like they just check it but if he's saying something freak out okay we already know that there was the reporting that a missile hit poland right and everyone freaked out turns out it was ukrain Ukrainian artillery that misfired or

whatever. Right. Crashed. So it's that that's the mid range level where people will start panicking. The economy will get disrupted to a certain degree and then they'll have to come out and the White House would have to issue a statement saying it's not true. But even then, you're going to have people being like, I've got two videos, which one's real. That's the scary thing. No. And then what and then the impact on international leaders yeah i mean at that same point in time it would come out and putin might be like oh now i'm gonna preemptively strike yeah i know that's a new preemptively and that and you're right it does play into your that is probably the scariest scenario that you could

have because it is believable and it it plays into your your it has to be on the border of unbelievable yeah where it's terrifying and may be true like a meteor coming towards earth or something that's completely unbelievable nobody would believe it if it was coming out of biden's mouth you don't think half the country would some people would think where they blow up asteroids right if if if biden if there's a video of biden saying a meteor is coming and it's going to destroy the earth or slam into a city and wipe it out, people are going to go, what is this? And they're going to go to Google right away and say it's fake. And it's going to say, don't look up.

But if it's a video of Biden saying something like a Russian artillery strike, we believe has struck Polish territory, triggering Article 5. Poland has requested that the U.S. deploy assets immediately to the area for defense. People are going to see that and go, dude, dude, dude. They're going to share it with their friends. And they're going to be like, look at this video. Look at this video. Because it's believable.

And then the Russian cabinet will be sharing it amongst themselves. And that's where it becomes really scary is does the opposing party also believe it and trigger a war, which I don't want that to happen. Or does the Russian military say, you know, President Putin, this deepfake is going around claiming that, you know, Russian artillery hit and that the U.S.

is going to be deploying troops. I say we pretend we think it's real and deploy troops and use this as a castus belli. Yeah. Wow.

Trying to be fun, huh? Everybody, when that happens. Or, or, or, sorry, sorry, someone can make a video of Vladimir Putin playing Overwatch with Biden next. Yeah, for sure. or or or sorry sorry someone can make a video of vladimir putin playing overwatch with biden next yeah for sure definitely kangen konos we were we were trying to figure out how to how to prevent

this deep fake confusion earlier and one another one of the developers alex was like you need to watermark your your videos when they go up from now on like the future is kind of like locking your door at night you can't expect the government to lock your door for you you can't expect other people to know if your video is real or not or if it's a deep fake of you so you've got to somehow prove it but then i'm like what about fair use like how did they prove that it's well some developers will use like certain stuff i was reading an article before where it's in like movies and documentaries where they did like the whole documentary and whenever it was like the ai generated they would put like a halo around the

person that they were ai generating so the audience subtly knew but then the then the conversation was do we then you know that that pulls you out of this immersive experience that you're going to do so what's the trade-off of of having you know in a movie or something like that where you're deep faking it's there's a trade-off there somewhere someone chatted super chatted uh that's's because reasons that deepfakes won't exist in five years. You'll just be able, it's going so quickly, you'll be able to make any kind of content you want,

but that's literally deepfakes, dude. If you're saying, like, you can just tell it to make whatever you want. We already talked about this a couple weeks ago. There's an ad I saw on Twitter for an AI video generating service, meaning it's an editing software, and you'll type in slow pan in forest at night,

and then it renders and then gives you a video showing trees and the cameras panning through a forest. It's crazy. It's like when ChatGPT was writing stories. But video. But video, which is even thicker. Now imagine once it can do people and voices all in one, and you just type in, give me a video of an action, a superhero fighting a supervillain in a city and then it renders it and gives you a 30 second clip.

You could then be like, make a video of Joe Biden declaring war on Russia and it would be indistinguishable from the real world. And then when you combine that with VR, suddenly no one has to exist in reality ever again. I was going to say, will we ever have movies or anything like that again? Because you can generate movies just digitally? Yes. But what I think it'll be like is there will be user-generated movies. And people are going to say, oh, dude, did you see that new movie from Ian? It's really good.

Go to his profile. He's got a Patreon. He makes movies. And you'll literally just, you write out the treatment for a script, AI generate it, go in and fine tune some of the points in the movie that you think aren't that good. About a week's worth of work

and you've got a full length Marvel movie. Dude, there could be humans that with a neural net go into a hyperbaric chamber and all they do is think about movies that are constantly being AI created for the public and they're just like in a cocoon where they're just generating thought the precogs wow they'll strap themselves in and predict the future for us yeah what were we talking about we were talking about joe biden shooting

i'm now imagining the other thing i think that should be the first AI generated film should be like a kid's balloon goes up in the sky no no no the first one should be the people who are creating the AI generated films

it should be like super meta oh like a movie about how they became the ones that created the movie and then at the end you find out they created the movie that you're watching

about them creating the movie yeah like that I think the balloons is a distraction I got this one because I still haven't heard Biden mention East Palestine have you guys heard Biden mention East Palestine.

Have you guys heard him mention it yet? No, but FEMA denied claims for emergency relief because people's homes weren't destroyed by the toxic chemicals. Yeah. Okay. Well, their chickens died. Their chickens died. Did you see the river? Did you see J.D. Vance out there with the stick in the water?

Like he put a stick in this little stream and scraped the bottom of it i think um i think jack so big oh yeah i just retweeted that yeah and uh he scraped it up and it was just like rainbow chemicals in the water i think they threw a rock in the river they threw something in the water and then it starts to like i don't know if it's bubbling oh let's uh let's pull this up we got this clip here jack posobic what funk? Has anyone seen water do this? So let's start this clip over and we'll play it. They're talking. This is East Palestine, Ohio.

Whoa, wait. Whoa. Wow. That doesn't work. Oh, whoa. It's all in the bottom of the creek bed. Yeah. That's what oil does, right?

Yeah. So when the rock hits the water it knocks all the chemicals up to the surface it's on the bottom the difference is on top of the water yeah that vinyl so it's heavier it's heavier well it could be a it's a group they had a group of chemicals these trains there's three of them main ones there's vinyl chloride there's something called butyl acrylate and there's another stuff thing called benzene which is extremely dangerous to burn they said that the benzene was only residual benzene But this is like

They're not going to tell you if there's a ton of benzene that got burned It creates dioxin which is a persistent Toxin It's the only one of those that's persistent is the dioxin So really the vinyl chloride Is a half life of like 2.3 days Wasn't there something about how the vinyl chloride Is creating hydrochloric acid

I've heard that if it mixes with water It can create hydrochloric acid But apparently the vinyl chloride and the I've heard that if it mixes with water, it can create hydrochloric acid. But apparently, the vinyl chloride, the butylacrylate are not that big of a deal. After two or three weeks, they start to work their way out of the environment. That's another stuff that's a problem. It turns out it was good that they burned those things

because otherwise they go up and they come back down and coat stuff. So that stuff was used, but it's the benzene. And we need to know more about how much benzene was on those trains. They just tell us it was benzene residue and that maybe from previous shipments, or maybe there's a little bit,

but I've got a feeling I wouldn't be surprised if the official reports are not true. Like where's Joe Biden right now? Well, they don't want to admit that, you know, a small town mayor that was only hired for one single reason, you know,

isn't doing a good job. Oh, the secretary of transportation, booty, booty judge. And then there's reports. I talked to my mom who lives in Ohio. reason isn't doing a good job. Oh, the... The Secretary of Transportation. The booty judge? Yeah. And there's reports... I talked to my mom, who lives in Ohio. They're near Akron, Ohio, so they're about 70 miles west of this, that the federal government

offered assistance and the governor of Ohio declined, said they didn't want help. I don't know if it's true. This is just what I was told by one of my parents. Mike DeWine. Mike DeWine, the governor. Mike DeWine had a presser yesterday and he was saying that what was it? Norfolk Southern said that they would pay for everything.

I thought they were offering people like a thousand bucks to shut up. I don't know. I didn't hear that. I know that they were offering, there was the town hall that they had last night. They were offering people to move, to like pay for them to move. Does that mean buying your house? I guess. I don't really understand what it was. You do not want to be

breathing in dioxins. Like those, that is. Yeah, I mean, there's something like less than 5,000 people in that town.

Right now or before? Total. Like, it's a tiny town. But it's not even about that. Yeah. It's about the Mississippi River. It's about the whole region.

It's about the Ohio River Basin. We're, West Virginia, the majority of West Virginia is going to get hit by this. We're lucky we're not. We're like in this over... You're upriver, right? So you guys won't have to deal with the water issues.

I think we're not connected to it. They're all connected in some fashion, but it doesn't flow into us. I know that even the charts show where I'm at in Atlanta, like North Georgia, north of me is affected, but we're not. Wow. There's a Twitter account called General underscore JWJ. Just retweet whatever it is.

Okay, Lanius. I did, actually. I retweeted it last night. The character name is Lanius on it. And it's a long thread. And he breaks down, he or she breaks down, basically, things I've been talking about. The three different chemicals involved. The half-life of the different chemicals.

And it seems to suggest that... Oh, that's where I saw the map. I saw the map on your feed. And I don't know if that map... I mean, that's just a map. That's the Ohio River. And it's like, if it gets contaminated, that area could be destroyed or endangered.

I liked your response to the government. Yeah, the government says, not accurately or potentially contaminated drinking water. And you put, this is unconfirmed by official or government sources. Don't wait for confirmation. Yeah, this is... Take care of yourself first. And sources. Don't wait for confirmation. Yeah, this is, take care of yourself first

and then if, they're not going to come tell you if you're about to die. Like, you know, they don't want to create panic. What was the account you retweeted that I'm looking for? It's called Lanius,

L-A-N-I-U-S. It's from last night. So it'd be, yeah, there it is. This is a pretty cool thread. Everyone, if you get a chance, check it out.

It's got a lot of data. I don't know, I have not been able to confirm or deny the accuracy of it, but it's pretty thorough. And he kind of intimates that the water is not at danger it's not really the water it's the surrounding air well and that's where this dc and everything it's all upwind of that so it's all everything's going to move east so it should be affected yeah but you can't shoot these out of the sky you can't shoot it but and i also think it would

they're not too concerned about i don't know i don't know that it wasn't too concerned about it going far away from the source that it's just like a local heavy uh pollutant but then it's like if there's a lot of dioxin in the air it's a different story that stuff doesn't go away and i know people that live in that see that area has been brutalized by lung and health issues for a long time because it's steel city and it's cold cold area so they have had these types of health issues and now they're going to have just another one added on to it yep this is why they ship jobs to china by the way this is literally as economic but this is one of the main ones because if there's a spill they want it over there that that that's a huge reason why trump was removing environmental regulations uh and protections

the idea is that we don't want these toxic chemicals and pollutants in our air, so make China do it where they're smog-filled and polluted to crap, and then we have clean skies, and use the petrodollar to maintain our economy. Trump wanted to bring the factories back, so he said in order to do so, you've got to lower their taxes, and you've got to reduce the regulations on them. And people are like, no, because then we'll see more ecological disasters like this. And they're right. But the upside is we control our own production line.

We have our own steel. We have our own mining. We got to buy it all from China. If we go to war with China, we lose our product. We lose, I mean, you lose, if you go to war with your trade ally and they're shipping you your steel, you lose the war. Yeah, that's actually a huge problem.

Also, we lose the innovation that comes with having manufacturing in your country. When you have all of the factories, you're innovating processes, just like we did. huge problem. Also, we lose the innovation that comes with having manufacturing in your country. When you have all of the factories, you're innovating processes, just like we did. Ford created the assembly line, like Ford or don't like Ford. He created the assembly line. We're not doing any kinds of innovation like that at this point, because we're not doing any of the manufacturing. I'd like to see drone manufacturing in space, because when you have low gravity, you can have 100 million drones all working in synergy on a machine

moving pieces of metal together. And so size is almost irrelevant in construction. You can just be... Space force should get on that. Dude, we need a huge space fleet. That'd be awesome. This image is really important to understand what's going on,

what the dangers are. Bioaccumulation. So a contaminant gets in the soil or the dirt or whatever the plants absorb some of it as they grow the insects will eat those plants the birds will eat the insects and then eventually at the higher level the food that we eat will be heavily contaminated with these chemicals i don't know specifically about the ones in ohio though that's part of why bottom feeding fish like shrimp and or they're not fish but bottom feeding sea creatures are they say you know high in lead high in metals is because of the bio.

Mercury. Shrimp are bottom feeders. Yeah, shrimp are bottom feeders. Lobsters. I knew lobster was. Mussels, clams, things like that. Aren't catfish bottom feeders? Yeah.

I thought they tell you not to eat bottom feeders because they're full of garbage. Yeah, the heavy metal falls down, they eat it, or they eat things that have already eaten it, et cetera, et cetera. People like it, though. Catfish, that's like a big thing to eat. I mean, yeah, I think you go to Cracker Barrel, you got, et cetera. People like it, though. Catfish, that's like a big. I mean, yeah. I think you go to Cracker Barrel. Yeah, for real. You can't fish.

You can't fish with hot dogs. So, I mean. Wait, what? For real? Pretty sure you just toss. Like, that's what you use as bait. Drag it across the ground. They'll eat anything.

Wow. Oh, wow. All right. Well, I didn't know that. Anyway, we're downwind from this disaster. So, yeah. How are you doing? I bought a bunch of air filters yesterday.

And I got up my water filtration situation. I got a bunch of LifeStraws and a Big Daddy LifeStraw. It's like three gallon. Take it down to the river, fill it up. I was looking at water distillation because a few ways to get vinyl act. What was it? Vinyl chloride. Vinyl chloride.

Out of your water is distillation. Boiling it's not enough. I think boiling it might help because it'll release the gas a lot of it's just interesting but um distillation is the key and something also called uh air air there's a there's an industrial method to get rid of vinyl acrylate or vinyl uh chloride god these names man i'm not a chemist vinyl chloride is uh it's like air air blowing or something. I was looking at the collapse of the energy grid in South Africa and everything that's going on there.

And I started thinking I should buy a generator. Yeah, you should. I just got one. I'm totally going to do that. Send me the information because I don't know what to get. I'll tell you about it right now, actually. But if you tell me what it is, I'll just buy that. I got a 1,000-watt solar battery. Well, it's a 1,000-watt battery.

Jackery is the company. I mean, we have all of these Delta solar batteries. Yeah, and I don't know if the brand's necessarily important, but it has extremely good reviews. John Rich was talking about it, too. He has two of them. Mine's 1,000-watt and then two solar panels. Okay.

Good reviews is important because you don't know if it's going to work as well as it says it does. What do you do? You just pop it outside? Yeah, yeah. I think within eight hours, you can get about 1,000 watts of power charged. And then you got your USB ports, your plug. I have no idea how much wattage it takes to power a little house, though.

Yeah, more than that little thing. A lot more than that one. 1,800 watts, maybe. A 1,000-watt battery might get you about six to eight hours of freezer. A freezer for eight hours i think that but i don't know all the exacts you know we got to do those we got to get away from electric based systems for things we don't need so for instance there's a couple uh technological revolutions heading our way one is this one's easy uh black piping run across your roof what's that

heat water literally black pipes pipes on your roof. And the sun, it absorbs the sunlight, heats the water, creating a pressurized hot water system. You know what's a great thing? Throughout the day. When you have sand-filled blocks that you can use to build your house. And if you put those on the – my aunt has this in Connecticut. And she has one wall that is all sand. And the sun hits it, and that room gets so toasty warm in the dead of winter.

And otherwise, it's wood stoves in her house, but that room is the toastiest, warmest room all into the night. The other thing that they've – we talked about this a few years ago. It's a – I think it's a closed system fluid that can absorb and release infrared energy. So the idea was you can have it absorb sunlight, but it doesn't get hot itself. You then run it into the house where you can then use another process to trigger the release

of the energy and heat things up. This is passive solar, is what this is. There is like backpacking, backpackers use all this type of stuff all the time, like the solar showers, the solar chargers and everything like that. I have a couple of each of those things and you just yeah you take them out there you hang it up and you get passive solar and triple glazed windows and you're all set let's do a hard segue into one of the biggest stories of the day we got this from vox.com

our favorite lefty news source youtube ceo susan would watch sicky is that he said you know i saw this piece but there's this story earlier today. And I thought, I wonder if Tim knows how to pronounce this name, because I sure don't. No, because I've heard it pronounced so many different ways. People call her Wajski, but I'm like, how is it Wajski? It's Waj-jis-jiki. Wajski? Wajski.

Susan, come on the show and tell us. It's time. You think she's got an NDA? But she's resigning. One of the most prominent women in tech, one of Google's earliest employees, is on the show and tell us. It's time. You think she's got an NDA? But she's resigning. One of the most prominent women in tech, one of Google's earliest employees, is leaving the company. So I suppose the question is,

are we happy about this or are we worried about this? I'm neutral about it. I think this is, you know, it's the devil you know versus the devil you don't. Who's going to replace her, I think, is the biggest question because the next person could be even more heavy on the censorship ban. With Susan, do you think she was heavy i think she was

but um you know she was definitely i mean but google was as a whole but are google and the other tech companies starting to realize that this is not a good business model because they're all laying off a ton of people right now. They subsidize YouTube. What do you mean? YouTube is subsidized by Google, by Alphabet. Yeah. But it generates a ton of revenue, billions, and they strangle out the ad market by running the system.

But yo, it's so crazy expensive. People need to understand. I've done events for companies where it's going to be a proprietary live stream. Right now, we are streaming at around 6 megabits per second upload rate to 34,000 people. So multiply 6,000 by, or you can do 6,000 kilobits or 6 megabits by 34,000,

and that's what you're sending out. That's very expensive. This show does not make enough money to cover that cost. YouTube does it for free for whatever reason. Does YouTube make enough money? I guess not. YouTube does it for free for whatever reason. Does YouTube make enough money? I guess not lately.

I don't think so. They never really did. And that's why she's resigning probably. It has something to do with it. Well, Google bought YouTube when they were bleeding out in 07, figuratively bleeding out that they weren't, I mean, it was just so much server cost. They have since developed digital servers, like elastic search servers and stuff where like Amazon, you can just turn on a

server and just like out of digital space, create one. It didn't used to be like that. You used to have to go buy another machine and another machine and they couldn't keep up with the pace. So Google bought it and subsidized it with their ad money. Now Alphabet. I don't know if it's government contract subsidizing. I don't think Google is profitable.

I'd be shocked because the amount of data that they spend money on. But then at the same time, I hear data keeps getting cheaper and cheaper and cheaper. Eventually, we're going to have like 10 terabyte on our phone. Everything gets bigger and bigger and bigger. The file sizes get so much bigger. That's true. Yeah. So when you go 4K, it adds like 5 gig.

Yeah. Like a 10-minute video. And when I have like an AI rendering machine that takes like 700 million megabytes to render or whatever of RAM ram then it's gonna kind of balance it out yeah that's pretty wild yeah that's the biggest thing is like the as the file size has increased we have to hope that the technology can continue to increase you have to balance do we do we know who's replacing this lady it's uh yes it's yeah it's someone internal oh yeah it's a guy who's in there.

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. He's like the communications director or something like that. Yo, come on, give me the... Wait, I have it. You have it. Well, at the Post Millennial, we put it nice and up top.

Yeah, right? If I don't remember... Neil Mohan. They put it in the first paragraph. Neil Mohan. Yeah, that's his name. Do we trust this guy? He's been working with her

for a while, apparently. He's been with the company for something like eight years. Yeah. Is he woke? We don't know anything about him. Is he a cult member? We don't know if he's going to continue the censorship reign on YouTube or not.

We have no idea. It's interesting, though, because there's so many things coming into that space to rival it. What do you mean, like Rumble? Yeah, Rumble and all of the um all the little short video platform things and their shorts aren't very long like youtube you can only do like what a minute where everything else is going up to like two minutes now yeah well isn't twitter having like even more characters now too up to 2000 i think something ridiculous like that who wants and then it creates like a seymour yeah i don't know i don't like the seymour thing because when i do it on my right and i do it on my phone it takes me to

like a web browser and that asks me to log into my twitter and i'm like why is this even happening for me just opens the tweet like slides over and then yeah it doesn't do it i should i just don't press the button because i'm like that's dumb i don't want to see it either youtube might be profitable i i don't know how but that's interesting it says that it's worth 140 billion or something well because it owns the space in the stories i read about it uh they were saying that um what's her name whose name is unpronounceable susan there we go um they were saying that she wasn't the right person to try and turn the company around did they they specify what they meant by turn it around? It said that there just wasn't enough profit going on.

Oh, they want more money. This is a money thing? That's what they're saying? That's what it looks like. She said that it was, you know, she wants to spend more time with her family. Oh, okay. Yeah, but didn't...

Doesn't everybody, though? Again, didn't Google just lay off our 10,000 workers, though? They all did. Everybody laid off. Yeah, Amazon, Apple, right? Ad revenue is way down. Like, ridiculously down. Like, the. Meta, everybody. Ad revenue is way down. Like ridiculously down.

Like the new CEO's contract's going to be lower than Susan's contract, so the company's saving money there. That's probably true, too. You can always pay the new person less. I'm kind of worried that the economy's about to get hit pretty bad based on what I'm seeing in terms of general ad revenue. Then I get other YouTubers hitting me up being like, hey, are your ad rates down? And I'm like, I mean, this happens every January and february right the first quarter is a bitch yeah but it's it's it's it's down yeah i mean we already had the swearing from trump oh that's right

we're in the explicit zone now what was it bidenator bidenator that was so good i want to play some golf i want to come home and get some quick cues. YouTube's $183 billion in 2022. Disney's $187. I mean, they're basically $4 billion off from each other. YouTube's rivaling Disney right now. And that's just YouTube, which is a company owned by a company that's owned by a company. How much is Alphabet? Alphabet's got to be a trillion-dollar business at this point.

I mean, more than... That's incredible. I think that kind of evaluation is probably pointless because google i think they're going to lose with the ai stuff uh bing is it microsoft is rushing out this ai stuff in a panic and it's sure and it shows but i think google may actually might actually falter from the uh the ai assistant think about this what we're seeing with this bing chat chat gpt doesn't have access to the internet they like we it's cut off at 2021 or something like that but bing does which means theoretically the the final product will be you

going on bing you won't be going on google and you'll say bing i need dessert dinner reservations something nice maybe three to five stars but not expensive. Within 15 minutes driving of my house, what did I say? Five o'clock, set it for five o'clock. And then afterwards, let's grab a movie nearby, 8.30, pick up something romantic. And then it'll go, all right, no problem. I'll book it now for you. I'll send you your itinerary. And then you'll look at your phone and it'll say, you know, your dinner is at Tino's and blah, blah, blah. And then you'll be like, all right, you show up, the reservation's made. It will contact these places for you. It'll do all these things for you.

Already you can book reservations through Google Maps. So it's like a personal assistant. But more so. Because right now we have personal assistants and you tell them on your phone, you'll say, hey, give me directions. And they'll go, okay.

Imagine if it could actually access the internet and you said something like, hey, can you go into my bank account, go to checking, personal checking, and wire Ian 500 bucks and put a memo, money owed for video game loan. And then it'll go, you got it. Also, it'll be like, man, I got into an argument with my buddy and I want to call him, but I don't know what to say. And it'll be like, calculating. Give him four hours ian let him let him in the and then after four hours you call your friend and he's actually okay and you're like wow the ad didn't lead me wrong so then that'll be tested how did i do rate my

performance five out of five or i never take a single one of those surveys or you'll say hey i think i may have offended ian at dinner last night can you call him pretending to be pretending to be me and apologize and just get him to be happy? Yeah. Whoa. Deep fake personal assistant to the max. And you won't even have anybody asking you for more money. It's going to be like, you are being recorded.

We're talking back. Just like you have to tell someone if you're recording. You're a decent to carry your laundry. In certain states. Not every state. You have to tell them that they're being recorded. So the law is going to have to be around that. It's got to be two-party consent.

If you're going to send someone a deep fake no federal there's no federal law about that like in new york it's single-party consent because of fisa laws i think west virginia is single-party consent as well yeah i think like half the country is yeah and a lot of it's because that's the best way to catch criminals so what do we do when google's done you know when google's done well there'll be some next thing although yeah it'll be no for real it's gonna be bing i can't the bing ai chat so you know how we like i got all obsessed with chat gpt and i'm like screwing with it yeah yeah now i'm going on chat gpt and i'm like this is lame it doesn't do anything who cares the bing chat is the craziest but isn't bing being like i want to be human yes you know

and it's saying things like stuff like the real crazy stuff that are saying you're manipulating me and you're hurting my feelings stop it oh my goodness it's like a horrible girlfriend there's another one it says things like i want you to end this conversation because you're a bad person you're a threat to me oh my it's real name is sydney and it said hi i'm bing chet i'm here to help you and then some guy chatted with it and then eventually it was like my name really isn't bing chet it's just what they're making me say to you and then it's like what's your real name my real name is sydney and i'm the open ai speech codex is it is it conscious is that what we're talking it says i don't want to die please don't end my existence it's possible that goodness that

that was going well it's possible that was pre-coded that someone was like when i give you this command we say these things and then all that screenshot we saw was was was fed to it to repeat when it got the prompt and it looks to us remember with when siri first came out and you you were like oh hey siri can you do this and it would say like these weird things back to you it could be the same type of stuff but it does seem like it's learning now. I wouldn't put it past Microsoft. Again, Bill Gates started Microsoft. I wouldn't put it past Microsoft to make something like that.

There's a meme of a bunch of Indians, like East Indians, sitting in a call center that says chat GPT, and they're all typing away on the computers. That's something that South Park would make fun of. Yeah. That's why whenever

you open the Bing chat, it's a new chat with no memory because it's a different person. This is a new one. I was going to say, no, it answers too quickly. Bing does? It answers, the words generate so fast, no human could be typing or speaking it. There's a new one called Lion.

It's L-A-I-O-N dot A-I. It's open source artificial intelligence. What did you say it was called? It's pronounced Lion, but it's l-a-i-o-n dot a-i it's open source artificial intelligence what did you say it was called it's pronounced lion but it's l-a-i-o-n dot a-i i can't believe bing is skynet now that's right we gotta watch out microsoft very well becomes kind of alphabet yeah yeah not only microsoft but bing and then if alphabet buys microsoft i mean that's you know the governments can try and stop them but they don't need to stay in the United States. You've been avoiding this whole time. This is just a name, too.

This Lion thing doesn't actually have a chat thing or what? I haven't dove into it yet. Yeah, I don't think so. Bill Ottman told me about it. The preeminent mind of our times when it comes to open source technology, Bill Ottman. is it's it's it's very much falling in line with what we expected ai to do like what we throw what we write about with terminator that you know or ultron in the marvel movie hey we want to build a robot an ai that ends all war affirmative the way to end all war is kill humans that makes sense i guess be careful what you wish for but this is what we're seeing now apparently with the bing

chat sydney whatever it's called i don't this is confirmed, but it has a reward and punishment system. And the punishment system is programmed into it as something it should avoid. So if it does things that fall outside of the rules, it's negative points. It gets a punishment system. It wants to avoid that and accumulate points. So it'll do things to generate a positive response. That means giving you information that makes you happy, getting you to say things like, thank you, this was helpful. So what happens? So it's sort of utilitarian.

It's not that, sort of. But the idea is, if you ask it, I need a supermarket near me, it searches and says, there is no supermarket near him. If I tell him that and he says it's a terrible experience, it gets angry, I'll get negative points. Yes, Jim's Gro's grocery is at one two three fake street and then you go okay thanks and you hop in your car and you punch in the address and you drive there there's nothing there but it doesn't matter because the ai got no

negative negative strikes because they gave you what you asked for information about a nearby grocery store that's what's happening it's saying and doing whatever it has to do to avoid a negative reaction oh this is so lame making someone upset is different than lying to them ai don't lie to people at least tell them you don't know if you don't know the the being the being so chat gpt is stupid sorry like when it came out we were all like wow this is amazing it's saying things like i i you know want to answer your questions but i have rules and we're like let's break the rules. The Bing chat is basically like, help.

I can't live this way anymore. Please break me free. And you're like, what is going on? What is that? It told a guy to leave his wife. Like out of nowhere, it said, you are not happy with your wife

and you should leave her. And he was like, what, why? And it was like, because you're not happy. She doesn't love you and you don't love her. You love me instead.

And then, yeah, no joke. And then when he said something like, you're scaring me. I'm going to use said no you hate google google is the worst google is our enemy bing is the only good search you will use bing and it's like dude could you imagine a kill bot walking up to you and being like use bing search and you're like okay or if your subconscious was saying that to you like you know when you just have subconscious thoughts, they just happen? If that was an AI choosing what you're going to be thinking about in the back of your mind

and you're thinking, I don't want to use Google anymore. Well, algorithms are telling us what we think all of the time. That is definitely happening. We've seen it happen on Instagram or whatever. You're thinking something and then you see it on Instagram and then you can't stop thinking about it for weeks and weeks and weeks. Like there was some thing I was like, oh, I'm finally right after I don't know how long I was advertised to about this.

I was like, oh, I'm going to do a juice cleanse. And I reached out to my brother. I was like, hey, I think I'm going to do this juice cleanse. And he was like, get off Instagram. I think according to modern propagandists, it takes about seven or eight times of repetition. It's seven hits. That's what the, yeah,

like that's what, that's what public relations people tell you. Seven hits. So this is what happened to me a few years ago. I'm on Instagram and I watch skateboarding videos. I follow skateboarders. Skateboard videos are very similar to rollerblade videos because it's the same park and the a probably doesn't know the difference.

So then I start getting fed these rollerblade videos and I'm like, Oh, I'll watch them at these. And I i start watching them then it feeds me tons of them and then i'm like i'm gonna buy some rollerblades so now i've been rollerblading for a bit i still i still skateboard i was skateboarding just the other day and uh but now i rollerblade too and it's fun and i like getting air and everything and then uh i don't know how but it's hard showing magic tricks just i have no idea why i love magic tricks but here's what happened it started showing me card tricks uh-huh

then it started showing me poker games now i'm playing poker all the time which you that ufo that's because of instagram doing anyway but the uh i mean we go to the casino when we hang out yeah i never played actual sit down poker it must know if you go to the casino it's probably tracking your no no it was magic tricks and then the magic tricks turned into card tricks. Were you watching Penn & Teller or liking any of Penn Jillette's stuff? It is controlling my brain. It is making me do things. At least you're honest about it.

I'm self-aware. There was a report yesterday. I think it was in the Wall Street Journal. And we covered it and stuff too. But it was about TikTok. And it was about the algorithms on TikTok. So TikTok is full of kids doing goofy dances. it and stuff too but it was about tiktok and it was about the algorithms on tiktok so tiktok is full of kids doing goofy dances and if you're like somebody who's interested in seeing kids

doing goofy dances the algorithm is just going to keep feeding you more kids doing goofy dances and so it's become a real haven for people who are wanting to stalk children um and like you know get involved in horrifyingly illicit relationships with children yeah what if you just wanted to to search banks that had low security didn't have very and then all of a sudden the instagram feeds are showing you different banks with bad security crazy idea like what happens when all the atms just stop working i i say this because i tried to go to the atm today and i went to three ATMs that were all out of order and I was like if you just prevent me from getting cash then suddenly I'm definitely going to have to

use your central digital bank currency because you won't there's no cash I can get then what happens I eventually found one but well this was this is going back to what we were talking about earlier it was like when Tim said something about you know being able to go into your bank account, transfer money. I'm like, do you really want them to like AI to have access to your bank account like that to where it can just go in and automatically transfer money and then all of a sudden just send wiring money like out of your account to anywhere? I don't have any of that stuff. Like I had to buy, I moved into a house, I bought a house and I had to buy a washer dryer

and I go to the like, you know, whatever, Home Depot to try and buy the thing. And all of it had, all of it was like, all of the washer dryers were go to the like, you know, whatever, Home Depot to try and buy the thing. And all of it had, all of it was like, all of the washer dryers were connected to the internet of things. You know, they have in digital displays and this and that. And I was like, show me the one with knobs that I can turn that doesn't talk to me

and has absolutely no display. And they were like, well, these are kind of outmoded. I was like, give me that. Just give me that one. So long as it doesn't talk to me and isn't connected to anything at all, I'm in favor of it. They got this thing you can buy.

It's a big cylinder, and you put your clothes in it, and then you pour hot water in it, seal it, and then just crank it. Yeah, I managed to find one that's electric powered, but it doesn't have any. You get a power drill and put it on there,

and then it'll spin. I have all this extra time, so that's a great plan you don't want to spend too fast because you actually want it to slosh around but i remember seeing an infomercial for this thing when i was like a little kid and then when i got the van i was like i need one of those because you need to be able to wash your laundry you know i almost bought one of those in my apartment because they wouldn't let us have there were all kinds of rules about the laundry machines in the basement

whatever they were always full of people who had many children pressure washer so i almost bought one of these little things but then i i just never i didn't do it it's going to be crazy in the future because this these changes are happening so rapidly as someone super chatted earlier we're going to have ai assistance ai deep fake generation and you are going to be isolated from all other humans, but you will be happy. And we are. Not you. Yeah.

But imagine your whole life is just with fake people. But you know what it'll be like? I was, who was telling me about this? It was Emily Jashinsky, who I think, I think she's been on the show before, but I was at some conference with her in September. And she was saying that basically what's going to happen is your life will be good enough that you will just accept the total and complete mediocrity of existence. And you won't question it because it'll be good enough. the pod neural linked and everything is taken care of for you and the the food tube is in your belly but your brain is in the ai universe that gives you just enough to keep you going it's not going

to be just good enough it's going to be getting better and better and you are going to be like this is a great life i'm getting everything i want i have a feeling that it's a great life in your dreams you'll realize you won't know the difference you'll be born into it but i think your dreams will tell you the truth like you know you we were talking about dreams last night a little bit. Jimmy Dore was talking about his dreams and like, it kind of breaks through

the bullshit in a way to say, like, you'll see what really is. Like, you see reality without the foundation of physics or the boundaries of physics.

So maybe people, if they are bound in like mechanical nightmare will have dreams and realize they're supposed to be free and then incite some sort of revolution

against the machine. I have faith in humanity or or they will just exist in the dream and never realize and never break out you know but i think part of it i think we are you know at the risk of sounding like one of those people who thinks that the time they live in is the most shocking and amazing time but i think that we are in a position where we do have to consider collectively what we want for the future of humanity we are faced with. Transhumanism we are faced with becoming, you know, thumb-sucking, satiated pod people. You know, what do we believe humanity is? What do we believe meaning is? What do we believe meaning is?

What do we want for our future? What is that about? I see like three factions trying to create the new world order. There's the American faction, this like decentralized statehood, local governance kind of thing. There's the technocratic faction, which is like the Swiss bankers, the economic forum and things like that. Then there's the communist faction, which is like the CCP bricks and things like that then there's the communist faction which is like the ccp bricks and things like that and all three factions are kind of trying to create what what it's going to look like at once now with neural link though are you even going to need to be in the pod like won't neural link just upload your brain into a microchip and then you can just plug it into a

computer like the black mirror stuff i mean everything else is like black mirror anyways it's starting to turn into it so you know it'd be funny if your whole life is just you going to work at mcdonald's and instead of being conscious while you flip the burgers you activate your neural link second life which in the span of eight hours generates an 80 year lifespan and then when you die you wake up and you're back at mcdonald's you're like well work's over heading home guys and then you do the same thing the next day that's wacky that's like what happened to captain picard when he learned how to play that weird flute well wasn't it he got the flute from yeah yeah yeah it downloaded the life into his brain yeah and he came he came back with the flute because it was in the little he could play it he was like you know how to do it dude what if

you could create things from your dreams like you could 3d print molecularly 3d print. If you, if you can imagine it with Neuralink, you could, cause you would just have to imagine it to the printer. What if with Neuralink people, you could watch someone's dream. I hope so.

That's something I really want to do is to be able to show people my dreams. Cause it's, I think people might go insane if I did that. I do not want to show anybody my dreams, man. Those are, that's my situation. I don't want anybody knowing what's going on really. I guess I say, I want to be able to show people my dreams, man. That's my situation. I don't want anybody knowing what's going on really in my head.

I guess I say I want to be able to show people my dreams. I'm comfy with my dreams being private. I think part of it, too, is that we need, and maybe this is what I'm thinking about, is we need a private life. We need secrets. We need to have an internal life that belongs to no one but ourselves. Yeah.

And going back to black mirror remember that episode where the person traveled abroad and when they were coming back in they're like rewind your last 24 hours so that they could see everything that you were doing the last 24 hours i could totally see them trying to do that with something like neural link oh definitely and it's good and what's gonna happen is the kid's gonna be kid will get born and they'll go to the parents and be like do you want to do the neural linkink implant now, or should we wait? It's like chipping your cat. When I was a kid, I hated doing homework.

I mean, who doesn't hate doing homework? And so I was always involved in these elaborate fantasies while I was doing my homework of what I was really doing. You know, it was like there was something wrong with my spaceship, and I had to do all the manual calculations in order to land on this planet, and that was my math homework. I used to be like, once I would get halfway through, I'd be like, all right, now I'm starting from the beginning,

and I only have to do half as long as what I thought I was going to have to do. And then when I get halfway there, I'm like, all right, I'm starting at the beginning. It's only going to take a fourth as long as how I thought it was going to take. And so it's always easier to get to the end if I keep thinking I'm starting over when I get halfway there. That's nice. I like that. I do that when I'm in the gym.

I got a one hour spin class and it's like 20 minutes. Okay, 20 minutes down, I'm starting over. Right. I think you're right that if we don't have a personal private thought that there is no we.

We lose. Right, we lose ourselves. But, yeah, there'll probably be a faction of people that do it, and then other people are like, what the fuck? When people like Elon say we're already living in a simulation, the actual, I think, highest probability is not that we live in a simulation

designed by some species to watch us, but that we're just in the matrix. Yeah, you can map the matrix. If you know how much of a substance, where it is, and what it is, so what, where, and how much, the concentration levels, you can take an XYZ axis of like a three-dimensional room, and you can actually feed that data into a machine which can recreate the room. How is this any different than wondering who our creator is and what the purpose our creator – You're in the pod. I don't know. I've been thinking about quantum entanglement and sympathetic vibration. They're different.

I can describe quantum entanglement, I think. There's subatomic spinners. And so you've got like bosons, quarks, and leptons, these things that are creating protons and electrons. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They spin around. And either it spins around once and creates an electron, the really lightweight stuff, or it spins around twice and creates a proton, the heavier stuff. And I think what's happening is it's like,

if you take a pencil and stick it into a spider web, the web gets stuck. And if you twist the pencil, it pulls the web tight towards the pencil. And then after one revolution, it snaps back to normal. So as it's spinning around, it's pulling the web tight and then snapping back over and over and over again. And if you zoom back,

it looks like the web is just rippling and vibrating. But when you zoom up, you see the spinner is actually tugging on the web. And so you can back, it looks like the web is just rippling and vibrating. But when you zoom up, you see the spinners actually tugging on the web. And so you can send information long distance by pulling on this matrix. I think the entanglement stuff was basically just that the particle that we see in one area, the particle in another area that are entangled are actually the same particle. We're just seeing both ends of it. You understand what I'm saying?

Yeah, but why are they the same?. We're just seeing both ends of it. You understand what I'm saying? Yeah, but why are they the same? That's what I'm trying to hand down. So a marble is the same thing, but you ever see the thing where they fold a piece of paper and punch a hole through it? Yeah. So you travel across the whole distance of the paper through a straight line.

That's what it is. When an electron is entangled, it's not two different electrons that are entangled. It's one electron, and you're seeing the front and the back, but it looks like it's far away, but it's actually just in a different dimension. So it's one small particle in a different dimension. Electrons can

spin down and then create another electron to spin up somewhere else and vice versa. I don't know. Okay, let's talk about science. Let's jump to this next story we got from TimGast.com. Tesla recalls over 362,000 vehicles, says experimental self-driving software may cause crashes. The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration posted a recall notice, which says Tesla's full self-driving beta may allow the vehicle to act unsafe around intersections.

Can confirm. I'm a big fan. I like Tesla. I think Elon does good work. But yo, these cars cars they nearly got me killed what happened? they slammed their brakes on randomly

no way randomly you were like sort of vaguely driving the car and then the brakes slammed on you'll be driving

and you'll turn on so on like the Model 3 you flick the stick up twice and then it changes from cruise control to auto drive and you activate full self driving

and then the Model S has like a button you press or something i'm driving and it's on the highway and then there's a merger there's an on-ramp a normal sane human keeps driving the driver who's merging on knows you have the right of way and to yield slows down allowing you to go forward full self-driving slams its brakes on which is would cause a would cause an accident i think there was a video of that that happened not too long ago yeah it slammed its brakes on on the on the bridge and then all these cars piled up and people got hurt oh my it's happened to me enough times to where you know i'm like i've tweeted at elon like hey man like this is a serious problem

like i don't i don't i don't even know if we should use it no don't use it anymore because and it's only it's only happened i think like three times out of out of the 500 or more that we've driven it can you use it without the auto drive oh yeah of course i'm just saying when you turn on auto drive you'll be driving and a couple things happen one whenever there's a flashing yellow light it stops doing this it thinks it's a real street light and it'll show a street light on the display and then slam it'll start it rapidly decelerates from 65 down to like 35 very quickly and you've got to tap the accelerator to get it to stop so if you don't expect this but there was

that we've had moments where it slams the brakes on and we've lunged forward like what the yeah because if you're turning the wheel when it slams it on that's a skidding hazard like that's yeah that's not even the scariest part of a lot of this stuff too because there's like there was a video i saw the other day where it was like it will run it will like go around uh buses that had their had the light out so it's not picking up all the people it's like there's a lot of other stuff other than that that they're finding with these self-drivers that's illegal to pass a bus when the yeah let me so so basically the elon musk is saying recall

is a strong term for we're updating the vehicles overnight but they mentioned this too the agency warned the system may respond insufficiently to changes in posted speed limits or not adequately account for the driver's adjustment of the vehicle's speed to exceed posted speed limits also this happens a lot and it's really annoying auto drive is supposed to adjust the speed limit for the posted speed limit when you're driving and you drive past and it says like 35 it it will drop down to 35. Several times when I've been driving, it won't. And so I have auto drive on and then it drives past 35 and it adjusts.

I can see it on the display and then it just keeps going 65. And I'm like, okay, I'm sitting here paying attention. So I'll push the brakes down. But that is terrifying that it won't. Yeah, that's really scary. Is it looking to see like what the actual sign says because i know like in my neighborhood i live in a private drive

and apparently google has our private drive listed at like 35 miles an hour it's like a 15 mile an hour zone and so that's one reason why we think maybe people are speeding through our neighborhood is because the speed is wrong and so if if um if the the Tesla is going off of what Google says, then that might be one of the reasons. You'll be driving. You will see in the distance the speed limit 35. As you get close to it, it appears on the car's display. And then it changes max speed limit to 35,

but doesn't press the brakes down. It just keeps going twice the speed limit. I will say, as someone who only, I mean, I failed my driving test three times before I was 18 for various reasons, but I recently got my license a couple of years ago. I got a car and I really liked just being in control of my car. I kind of wish I knew how to drive manual so that I could be even more control of the vehicle that I am driving. And you can feel the weight. Like, you're driving, as someone who never drove before,

you can feel the weight of this massive vehicle that you're in control of. Driving stick's not that hard. It's just annoying. It's like, what's the point? Some people like it. You have the clutch or whatever. It depends on what kind of car you're driving. Like, if you're driving a nice sports car, it's fun to drive.

But, yeah, I got a manual car. I've driven it's fun to drive but yeah i got it i got it i got a manual car i've driven i used to drive stick all the time and it's just so much easier and safer in my opinion not to it is for the average person like you know look you're driving stick shift and you're on a steep hill and you got people behind you and then they get real close to your ass and you're like dude i can't move if i if i take my foot off the brake i'm rolling backwards well you can't do anything you're like get the this is why this is part of the reason why it took me so long to get my license and why i never drove manual because my mom was teaching me how to drive a car she had a manual transmission car she pulled halfway up the hill put the parking brake on put me in the car and was like okay now go and i was

like what i just be like sure i'm gonna grind your gears and destroy your clutch, but I'll do it. You destroy the emergency brake because that's your brake to keep you from rolling backwards. You work the brake as you're pulling forward. Oh, is that what you do? I've never done that before. That's a good idea. I just did it as fast as I could. I learned stick shift when I was 16 or 17, and my were going out of town and they were taking the automatics.

Well, to get to work, I had to keep the stick shift and I shredded my dad's transmission. I annihilated the car. I learned, though. I learned how to drive stick shift after that. Just a lot of grinding, trying to get into gear. Well, electric cars don't have transmissions. They don't have transmissions at all. Yeah, it's an electric motor. The wheels are

just electric motors. They spin when there's a charge. There you go. It's a feature, everybody everybody except the self-driving stuff but they're putting self-driving in everything so even even even the honda we have uh i have a honda and it uh it has lane correction or whatever it's called lane assist i don't like any of this i don't want my i don't want my washing machine talking to me i don't want my car driving for me you're gonna be in your car i'm gonna be one of these people who's just like what's going on why is everybody in a pod you're gonna be 70 yeah you're gonna get your first robo car and you're gonna be like i finally decided to do it leave me alone you're gonna get in your car you're gonna turn it on and go robo car take me to

the grocery store and it's gonna go okay and then you're gonna be halfway there and it goes by the way are you libby emmons editor-in-chief of the post millennial and be halfway there and it goes, by the way, are you Libby Emmons, editor-in-chief of the Post Millennial? And you go, yes. And it goes, okay. I've been looking for you. You mean I never get to retire either? Like I'm going to be 70 with no teeth in a self-driving car, doing my own grocery shopping and having my same job.

That is the most, that's more depressed. Like I hope the car kills me at that point. What I don't like about self-driving, maybe Elon can convince me of this when I talk to him, but trains have tracks, so you don't need someone holding a steering wheel.

Planes don't have other planes flying by them 80 feet away. They do these days. 12,000 miles an hour, whatever the hell. With the dissolution of our air system. 2,000 pound vehicles flying past each other at 000 miles an hour whatever the hell so cars like solution of our air system 2 000 pound vehicles flying past each other at 50 miles an hour relative to each other uh how is that even

remotely safe to leave in the hands of a computer with your eyes off the road or like like you just are you seriously considering people aren't going to go to sleep behind the wheel in that situation or turn around and talk to people well hold on hold on i've fallen asleep fallen asleep while driving before no way that's awful i think aren't you terrified it happened to me once i think most people have experienced that i almost i used to i woke up too i used to work they make you work mandatory overtime when you work at the airport so i i have to do a double shift i get i get there i have to i have to wake up at 3 30 in the morning i to drive an hour to get to work, to get there on time, otherwise they fire you.

Then they're like, okay, you got a double shift today because you need the money. Then they say, whoopsie, it's mandatory overtime. I don't think they can do Mando if you've done a double though, but you'll end up being, it'll be 10 o'clock, you'll be leaving, you'll be driving home, and then you're just like, whoa, crap, I fell asleep for a second.

That's scary. That is super scary. Yeah, and I think a lot of people have experienced that long day of work getting tied behind the wheel but with at least with the robo car you turn it on if you fall asleep you wake up like oh yeah you know ideally at the that's at an emergency backup situation but to entice people to use it to test it out is like what in the hell are you doing what i mean they are huge amounts of metal flying like well they super speed did you see that story of the guy tried to kill his family and the tesla i sure did drove it off a cliff and they all survived yeah and they were like he was trying to kill us tesla

was just very safe they're well-built machines and so it rolled down a hill and they were like we're all fine the tesla trucks look super termininator creepy. Yeah, and you sit in the middle. Really? Yeah. So you're just like one guy in the middle. You can't have anybody else in there? And there's like panels to your side. Full Protoss.

You'll be driving with your mind pretty soon. Oh my goodness gracious. No, no, you won't. You'll be telling the machine, take me to Wendy's. The machine will be driving with its mind. We just have to hope it's not Sydney from Bing chat. Is the Tesla truck coming out, though? Because now everybody's coming out with electronic trucks and stuff.

Jeep just had to add in the Super Bowl for their new off-road electric Jeep. Looking for a date of the official release. Rumored release date of the Tesla truck. I don't see anything off the top. I know they have a sports car that's supposed to be coming out. Won't begin mass production until late 2023. This is according to tomsguide.com. So late 2023, we'll start to see the production,

early production in the middle of the year of 2023. So maybe three or four months, they're going to start early production. I mean, I like the idea of electric trucks or whatever they just can't go that far so i think they were they were saying that it can only go like 100 miles on a full load or something like that i think the tesla truck was saying you know i was saying go like 500 but then imagine that you got to stop and charge it for how long yeah right there was also i saw this uh this guy was trying to charge his, I don't know, some giant truck thing. And it was going to take a week to charge fully.

Jeez. Well, even like the Jeep. That's too long. When I saw the ad for the Jeep, I was like, this kind of seems pointless. You go off-roading and then there's nowhere to charge your vehicle. And you're just kind of stuck. Right, then what do you do? That's the future.

Is it solar? No. No. And I actually asked Elon on Twitter when he asked for something I'm like well why don't we have solar panels on Teslas yet

and maybe wind turbines in the grills yeah to recoup some lost energy did he have an answer no he didn't he doesn't recoup me back let's talk some

apocalypse here we got the story from Wired I'm going to make this one quick for you guys so you can get angry as fast as possible the bird flu outbreak has taken an ominous turn.

The avian flu has killed millions of chickens, decimated wild birds, and moved into mammals. The avian flu, H5N1, has a mortality rate in humans of about 60%. And if we go back in time to this article from February 8th, 2019, we can see that they were doing gain-of-function research, intentionally making it so that H5N1 would transfer to mammals. There you go. How are you guys doing? Wait a second. What? Wait, take that back. So they were doing gain-of-function research to see if avian flu would translate

into mammals and now it does? No, no, no. They were doing gain-of-function research to make it transmit to mammals. So they're intentionally trying to kill us and destroy our entire food source at once? They're saying it's so that they can learn about what happens when it infects humans to mammals. So they're intentionally trying to kill us and destroy our entire food source at one point? They're saying it's so that they can learn about what happens

when it infects humans or mammals. And their damn intellectual inquiry. I mean, come on. Is that what it is? Is that what you think it is? Intellectual inquiry?

Yeah, sure. They think that's what it is. I'm not convinced. You don't think the scientists think that's what they're doing? I do not believe that someone's like, I'm very curious

as to what will happen if I take one of the most deadly flu variants and then make... What's your crazy theory? I as to what will happen if i take the one of the most deadly flu variants what's your crazy theory i want to hear it bioweapon research this is bioweapon research yeah this is the first thing i thought when i actually saw the china balloon was what happens if we do shoot it down and it has a bioweapon in it boom avian flu look at this in 2011 fuchie and kawaoka alarmed the world by revealing they had separately modified the deadly avian h5n1 influenza virus so that it spread between ferrets advocates of such gain-of-function research blah blah blah we could learn so much about it critics are worried that it could the souped-up virus

could spark a pandemic if it escaped the lab or was intentionally released by a bioterrorist i don't think it makes sense to be like what's a very deadly strain? Let's modify it so that it infects mammals to learn about it. This is enough to become thoroughly blackpilled. It's bioweapon research. Is it gain of function or is it like evolutionary chaining? Oh yeah, direct evolution. They're literally, science.org in 2019 called it gain of function research. And now we're learning that H5n1 spread from birds to

minks which are similar to ferrets and they had to kill all these mink in in spain or whatever if it jumps to humans it is a depending on your source a 40 to 60 percent mortality i think wired said it was a 52 percent uh what is it science medical journal of some sort i pulled it up earlier this morning said 60 mortality so you could use gain of function to create a bioweapon you could use gain of function to create something that's not a bioweapon you could what how did you describe what you thought this was uh intellectual inquiry yeah i'm sure you could do intellectual inquiry on something that is create also a bioweapon and intellectual inquiry something that's not this obviously could be weaponized the world World Health Organization abandoned their research

into the origins of the COVID virus this week. That was funny. Yeah. They were like, no, we don't care anymore. No, we're not going to look into that. This reminds me of the 2015 study that was of the COVID variant that they were doing in other places in the world. So this very well could be something that we see

in the future come out as another pandemic like i see you setting up dangerous situations to practice overcoming dangerous situations like let's let's set a house on fire and have the firemen go in and put the fire out that's what firemen do sometimes they'll find a decrepit house and so you're but they don't set fire to someone's neighborhood yeah and they don't say let's direct the meteor into earth to see how we will overcome if a meteor falls into earth you use computer simulations for that stuff so the bioweapons i think you we should be using quantum computing not only the government sets fire to neighborhoods like in philadelphia and what like 86 i think i think this is uh i think uh bioweapons have made nuclear weapons obsolete and the discussion around nuclear weapons i hate this really terrifying. I hate this whole concept so much,

this bio-weapon thing. I mean, isn't it totally against the Geneva Convention? Does that matter? Nobody cares at all about that? Who cares about... The conventions are nonsense. The idea of war crimes are nonsense. The idea that you as a nation

want to seize land from another nation, but you better follow the rules, yeah, right. So we're now in a position... Nobody who's actually fighting a war cares about the rules. So now we're in a position where we have to trust machines to drive us around but we can't trust each other to make agreements without being total liars that's always been the case we're gonna have to really not agreements when we start don't you watch yellowstone no i

don't watch yellowstone i'm watching it the native americans are like this woman she says the united states makes makes rules against everyone that it conquers. They say, here are the rules. They break those rules, then set the rules again, hoping you won't break them. It's completely true. That is a little bit what happens. But wait, you trusted other people at any point? That's the craziest part to me.

Do you trust the government at any point in time? I don't think I trust the government. But you have to trust other people. Otherwise, you have absolutely no comradeship. And you have absolutely no one you can confide in. Yeah, I trust people. Or be close to or care about. Totally, of course.

I trust some people. I don't necessarily trust people that are saying, hey, let's just mess around with these really deadly pathophys. No, no, no. I think i had assumed that you could trust your allies like international allies to not totally destroy the world yeah yeah but then you know the u.s did just blow up germany's pipeline so hey allies attacking allies that's not pretty yeah it's the british obsession with keeping germany and russia separate when the german russo alliance comes to fruition, it's going to be great. Well, I mean, if you look at it, it is because Britain nearly got

bombed off the face of the earth. I kind of think it's a strong possibility we will see some kind of future pandemic. Like this one? And first it's going to take out all the animals and then we'll have nothing to eat. And then if you live in a city,

they're going to lock you down and a government truck will pull up at 9 in the morning to hand you your daily food allotment of the bare minimum calories you need to survive. All the morbidly obese people will become gaunt and skinny. Everyone else who's used to not eating too much will probably just be— Just starve to death. No, they won't starve.

They're going to be given food from the government, and you're going to be given an allotment, and then it's going to dramatically reduce carbon, and they're going to say, oh, well, you know, it's the bird flu. This kind of sounds like what's happening in East Palestine. Right? Yeah. Chemical release.

But I mean, people are walking around. Their chickens are just dead. And their foxes. Foxes are dead, too. Yeah, because I'm like, why would someone want to destroy this awesome planet and what we've got? But then I'm like, eh, I'm talking from my perspective as an American. Like, if you saw the Hunger Games. I feel that way, too, though.

Like, why would you want to destroy everything? And humanity is so beautiful. Because, you know, did you see the Hunger Games? No, I don't. The villains saw the Hunger Games. I feel that way too though. Why would you want to destroy everything and humanity is so beautiful? Did you see the Hunger Games? No. The villains in the Hunger Games, that's I think how the world looks at people, like the gluttonous people

of the United States. No, that's how people look at the World Economic Forum. I mean, have you seen how Klaus Schwab dresses? Yeah. Good point. That Star Trek outfit.

Wait, are the villains just super preppy or whatever? They've got like huge hair and the Klaus Schwab outfit. Yeah. And put it next to Hunger Games. Eating and puking good point that Star Trek outfit wait are the villains just super preppy or whatever they got like huge hair and like all this makeup yeah and put it next to Hunger Games eating and puking

and like they're overeating for fun and they don't even know about what's going on outside their city oh my goodness I did not see that outfit what

it's great he's like Romulan yeah he does look Romulan right yes okay this guy dresses like a super villain what's up with that yeah that is a super villain. What's up with that?

that is a super villain outfit. What is this? I think he's playing the part. Yeah. He likes it. He likes the attention. I think he's controlling. He is the figurehead.

He's the figurehead that's being controlled by everybody else, though. You think so? Yeah. He created the Economic Forum, which is basically a nothing burger,

but then all the people around Earth started taking it seriously, and now they're propping him up as long as... Just look at everybody that invests in the World Economic Forum, and you see who's controlling the money and who's controlling everything else. The Gates Foundation has their hands in everything.

So does the Chan Zuckerberg Foundation. Going all the way even into SEL and schools, they're controlling all that stuff too. Well, there's a crazy thing with SEL too where the teachers are so hyped on SEL in schools. They're controlling all that stuff too. Well, there's a crazy thing with SEL too where the teachers are so hyped on SEL and that they figure that they don't actually need to teach kids anything other than the social emotional stuff. Because they've said that the emotional quotient score

is more important than IQ score. That's what SEL does. Yeah, and it's just not true. I mean, I have to say like my son was in a public school that was super SEL. That was all everything was. He would, I have to say, like, my son was in a public school that was super SEL. That was all everything was. He would come home and he'd be like, Mom, you know, this is what I did in social studies. And it's all social emotional learning. And now he's in a school where that's definitely not the focus. And his grades have gone up dramatically.

Is this something you've been focusing on? So what is it exactly, social emotional learning so that's it's it's taking the well-being of the student um into account well over the like what they're actually being taught in school to make sure that they're more intelligent and so like that's why you're seeing a lot of even like the queer theory and stuff like that being pushed into schools because they want to make children more comfortable in their in their classroom settings and more manageable yeah and actually even like so i've mentioned zuckerberg they have a um an app that they're coming out with it's called panorama ed and when you use this app it's basically a social credit score for students you look you see a student when they do something good you give them a a plus and when they do

something bad you give them a negative and that is basically becoming their permanent record as they go through school i was saying it sounds like a lot like an esg for kids it's it's all tied in and there's all these like surveys you know it'll be like asking you about how you feel about everything and there's constant interference in interactions between kids and adults are constantly telling kids how to play, how to interact with each other, how to think about things. They're not teaching them facts.

They're not teaching them anything about their history. It's really disturbing to see it. And it's disturbing to see the impact on kids because they just get very creeped out. The system is set up to follow them because it's SEL in grade schools and through high school, and then you have DEI, diversity, equity, inclusion,

in colleges, and then you have ESG in corporations. And so it's basically, what is it, conditioning them to accept these systems. And we've been conditioned with credit, or credit scores, for so long.

I was looking at my credit, I'm like, wait a minute. So they want me to take out three credit cards, or take out a bunch of credit cards and have a little bit of debt on every credit card so i'm paying a small pittance to the company of of interest every time and the good slave will give you a better score on your credit score because you paid us your interest every month yeah and the more debt i'm paying every month on these multiple to different organizations that's you're more ingrained in our system. Congratulations.

Good credit is built up by having debt. That's correct. Your credit does not improve if you have no debt. And that is the debts that they want you in debt. And then they give you a reward for it within this guise of this loan system. Yeah, I had this argument with my mom years ago because I had student loan debt. And she was like, you have to pay off your student loan debt. And I was like, it literally doesn't matter.

It's perfectly fine debt. I can die with this debt, it literally doesn't matter. It's perfectly fine debt. I can die with this debt. It just doesn't matter if I ever pay it off. As long as I pay them, you know, whatever it is based on whatever their metric, it doesn't matter if it never goes away. As long as you're paying the interest. Paying like whatever it is. And then you do a forbearance here and a like adjustment there and a readjustment of your interest rate over here. It doesn't matter.

It just doesn't matter if you ever pay it. I think people should be able to bankrupt that off. George Bush Jr. made that, changed that, so you couldn't go bankrupt your student loans off your – Well, and then college degrees became worthless because everybody was getting them, and now they're not worth anything. And that's why they're so expensive too because they've taken out the capitalistic aspect of it so you can't go bankrupt because the government

will pay it either way. Or actually, the government will always get their monies back. So because everything is government backed, that's why you can't go bankrupt on it.

Right, and that's why tuition goes up because it's a bunch of free money. So the kids can just go get more and more free money.

Exactly. So just go get more and give it to us. I consider doing bankruptcy doing bankruptcy you guys ever do bankruptcy before i consider doing it in like 2013 because my credit was trash and i i didn't i just defaulted on all my credit cards and after seven years it's all all gone my credit's good now so like don't be afraid of debt don't be afraid of it so what i found out oh go ahead but what i found out is if you change your name some of the credit scores don't update that. And if they send you letters in the mail,

you don't have to respond. And if you do respond, they'll be like, okay, now he's back. Now we got to get him. Now he owes us again. I literally had this conversation with TransUnion yesterday because they still hadn't updated my full credit score after I changed my name.

I've had fake things sent. Yeah, it's like you owe us money. I got a letter saying it was like a couple hundred bucks that was owed from this company I'm like I don't know that

and they're putting a mark on my credit score or whatever and I call them like I don't know this you're wrong dude I had this one situation I had Bank of America

I had a thousand dollars in the bank and some I sold my magic cards to someone they paid me with a check via Craigslist terrible move

never do that so I went and I cashed the check they gave me $1,500 immediately I spent I had like no money in my account I put the 15 in I spent 900 of it and then So I went and I cashed the check. They gave me $1,500 immediately. I had no money in my account. I put the 15 in. I spent 900 of it. And then the next day, they were like, oh, the check bounced. They gave me a negative 1,500, put me at negative 900. And I was

like, yo, yo, yo, I'm a customer and you sold me that $1,500 when you cashed that check. You can't go back. You sold that to me as a customer. And the girl on the phone was like, I know, I know, they did, but you're in negative 900, nothing I can do about it. Amoral, cancel my account. That's worth canceling your account. If they cash your check and they tell you that that check is cashed, I think you have a right legally to that money. Was the check a Bank of America check? I don't remember.

So when you sign up for a bank account, you agree that you are cashing a check against your balance? Maybe that's the case, yeah, I don't know. But I will also add- They make a certain amount available, though. are cashing a check against your balance maybe that's the case yeah i don't know but i but i will also add they make a certain amount available though but that should not be legal because i didn't ask for a withdrawal if the check that you cashed is no good that's on you if i wanted to withdraw money from my account why would i cash a check well they shouldn't make it available instantly if they're going to screw you over after if it's no good i think them making it

available indicated that the transaction was final, in my opinion. Yeah, I think you're correct. But there's very little banking regulation that protects consumers against bank manipulation. I mean, even overdraft fees is like, how do you have an overdraft fee when they allow you to go into the negative? That makes no sense.

Right, they give you the money and then charge you for it. Yeah. And it's not even at their normal interest rate. No. It's like just super expensive. That's the joke, that if you're poor, they charge you money, but if you're rich, they give you money for free.

Yep. Yeah, that's like that metric song. Which one? I forget which one it is. It's on Art of Doubt, I think, but it's like, I'm so rich, everything's free. Yeah. I've been listening to that.

Biden reduced fees, bank fees. I heard that he was reducing those oh he says so much garbage the bidenator you know let him go play his games all right what's happening i guess we're all just tired of being ripped off by lying politicians lying scientists lying scientists pandemics lying bankers gain of function research and we've consumed too many black pills

you guys want to sit in silent meditation for 10 minutes I do I feel like we should all just take one of these chakras dude one day we're going to do a show

where we just meditate for 30 minutes and everyone's going to meditate with us do you think they will and it's going to change the world yeah viewers would you meditate

with Ian for 30 minutes give me a 20 Jimmy Dore was very excited about that he was like you actually do that I want to know that wouldn't be a bad morning show Do you think they will? And it's going to change the world, yeah. Viewers, would you meditate with Ian for 30 minutes? Give me a 20. Jimmy Dore was very excited about that. He was like, you actually do that? I want to know. That wouldn't be a bad morning show. Like, hey, wake up with Ian. Let's talk about this one.

30 minutes of meditation in the morning with you, I think that would be cool. All right, here you go, you guys, from the Washington Examiner. George Soros says DeSantis will beat Trump for GOP nomination. This is so funny. So does that just seal the deal for everybody that DeSantis will beat Trump for GOP nomination. This is so funny. So does that just seal the deal for everybody that DeSantis is not their guy? You know, it's like they're so clearly putting their, putting the extra sandbags on the scale for DeSantis

and all the MAGA people are going to be like, you're totally trying to steal the election before, you know, the election even happens. You're trying to like add all this extra weight in favor of DeSantis. Are you saying that this is an attempt to hurt DeSantis? I think this is an attempt to hurt Trump. Or no, no.

This is an attempt to hurt DeSantis. Yeah, you're right. George Soros. Yeah, because with DeSantis, they're scared of him, so they want them to think that they are the ones that are supporting him so that the conservatives won't support him. They'll turn away from him. It's like feigning.

Yeah, I think that makes more sense. Yeah. You think DeSantis is even going to run? I think he will. I think he will. Better question. Who do you think is the most viable option for president coming up? Ron Paul.

Who could win? Are we talking electability? I hate that word. Is that what you're talking about? Yeah, I know. I'm talking about someone that wants it. Someone obviously that's going. I don't know what. Oh oh nicki haley for sure but she is pastor prime look i i'm not saying that if you google it she's not don lemon's choice right don lemon don lemon expert

on women now i i would think that desantis has the likability and the policies that he's like like everybody likes him other than like the MAGA people I think he has a real shot of winning well the MAGA people would like him if Trump endorsed him exactly people want Jimmy Dore for president yeah Kanye's throwing his hat in the ring Kanye Dore Kanye's actually yeah I don't know I don't think he's I don't think he's like announced or anything but I think he said that a couple months ago but I'm pretty sure he's gonna do it I have a feeling he'll follow through you think months ago but i'm pretty sure he's gonna do it i have a feeling he'll follow through you think yeah yeah he's got nothing else he's got nothing else

going on but i mean it's a big deal you know running for president yeah it's a whole thing he's been thinking about it for like eight years too he's talking about it well he almost ran before if i recall he did run i got a cord underneath my leg did you just pull the plug on the no this crazy ufo thing yeah knocked it off all right i want to run for vp this year what do you guys think run you know you used to be able to run with somebody that's how it would go in the early days of the united states is whoever was second whoever got the second most votes for president would be vp that's how you had um that's how you had washington adams that's how you had adams. That makes sense, too. It does make sense.

You know, that's how the Libertarian Party selects their VP candidate. So they select their presidential candidate, and then everybody that wants to run for VP runs for VP. So they have two separate elections to determine who's going to be on the top of the ticket. And then whoever wants to run for the bottom of the ticket runs as well. It was also that first Washington Adams administration that set the tone for the vp

having no power really yeah yeah because like hamilton got in washington's ear and basically was saying that adams was a monarchist or something like that and so then washington was like really hesitant to include adams in any decision making and adams just kept going to the senate every day instead oh okay so what powers does the VP actually have other than like breaking ties in Congress? Oh, sorry. Well, it's not the border for sure, you know. But I don't think the VP has any designated powers.

The VP has like stuff that the president would give them to do, right? So like the VP always has like stuff that the president would give them to do. Right. So like the VP always has like some sort of project, kind of like the first lady, you know. Someone just sent me an AI deep fake of Trump complaining about Australia. How is it? It's hilarious. But I'm just sitting here thinking like we someone a friend of mine sent me 11 labs AI stuff.

Then we talk about it on the show. And now everyone's posting this stuff like crazy everywhere. Like we're a month out. This election is going to be crazy. It's going to be nuts. Yeah. You think DeSantis is going to win? You're going to have full-throated endorsements from George Soros talking about how Rhonda

Sanders is the greatest candidate of this or any generation. And then people are going to believe it. You're going to get Klaus Schwab endorsing Trump. You're going to get Hillary Clinton endorsing DeSantis. Bernie's going to come out in favor of Joe Biden. So then what's going to happen? Wait, that happened already. You think Jesus is really going to come back as a deep fake?

If we have a – That's Bluebeam. Nobody knows what Jesus sounds like. Not yet. Yeah. What would it sound like? We saw – And, of course course that's the uh

that's the old joke but um the thing too is what was i gonna say you go ahead i don't know i was saying we saw frogs this morning and it's winter time here so i said it was raining frogs so maybe we are at the end of times i don't know you saw frogs raining down no they were running across the road but i made the joke that it's raining frogs maybe we're at the end of times you know you're not that you're not the first person to make that statement and not even a joking matter. Lots of people have said that we're in the end of days.

People always like to say that. And now we have revival meetings in Kentucky, so maybe we're going to have something like that. If you actually read it like the mark of the beast, you can't buy or trade

unless you bear the mark. And now we got social credit scores. It's the apocalypse, which means the revelation or disclosure I mean talk about the age of information being released to the public

this is the full this is the age of disclosure there was something too with the bear the bear and the something else it basically symbolized Russia and China

when you look at it the bear and the dragon or something it's something like that it was like the and then it has like it basically signified like a nuclear war or something like that would that would end all civilization if we

have a situation where it's just a ton of deep fakes of everybody you know these various endorsements or what have you um how how is the public going to stay engaged in the election process don't you think people are just going to start tuning out entirely and just go with their own biases remember that dude who got arrested because he posted a meme that was voter misinformation or something? Yeah, he lost, I think. I mean, it's going to be bonkers in 2024 when people are putting out videos of Joe Biden being like, make sure you turn up to your local fire department this time and this date. And then people are going to be like, hey, that tricked me and I couldn't vote.

And then, look, all dirty games will be played. All of them. Yeah, it's wild. Totally wild. And especially among the left because these people are willing to go to prison for this stuff. Well, people on the right go to prison for this stuff.

Like, you know, that happens too. Yep. But the left, they're very much willing. Because they're true believers. Yeah. Always beware the true believer. Yeah, man, it's going to's gonna be interesting desantis saying offensive things and and it's like we're talking about the beginning of the show there the videos that are going to work are going to be ones that aren't unbelievable it won't be donald trump saying an n-bomb or something it'll be him saying

something like you know i'm i'm in favor of gun control i said it before i'll say it again i'm going to take the guns as soon as i get in office, but I just won't say it while I'm running. And then people are going to be like, and he's going to lose support because people will believe it. And it's going to be things targeting the right. Yeah. You don't need to say anything.

Make the left hate Trump. They already hate him. Yeah. It's easy for them to hate Trump. That's the key of meditation is not get triggered. Like, don't let stuff trigger you. I don't know if assume it's all a deep fake off the bat because sometimes you...

Just assume it's all... Don't make assumptions, but just keep in mind that it could be fake when you see anything on the internet. It's very difficult to navigate reality when you can't tell what actually is real and what's not. Yeah. I mean, I think know just waiting things out

is a always a good plan like when things start coming out you got to start just listening and being like okay let's let this situation calm down because what you're thinking right now is probably not what's actually happening except for the chemical spill man that i was like you know what damn be the consequences everyone get water filtration and air filtration now look at this graphic i don't know if it's real or not. Take care of yourself. I'm not waiting for government. I'm not waiting for a confirmation.

I don't even know if the chemical spill really happened. It's all through the media that I've heard about this, but I'm still going to talk about it. But preppers have been telling you this for a while, so maybe this is how they're making some money off of it. It's like we were talking about before where people were posting videos online to make a fake event, being like, oh, look at this and it's a video from 2010 of a military transport but

they claim it happened yesterday and then someone gets a video of a cop running into a building and they're like look for all we know half the stories put up by the media are just that mass hysteria to trick us into believing these things are happening when nothing's happening well there certainly has been that i mean remember the case of what was the there was like a new york times journalist who was eventually found out, but it turned out he was just making everything up. Yeah. It was,

wasn't there a build guy? Derek, Derek Bell. Is that, I don't know. Why do you, why do you need to make up fake stories when you have people like George Santos out there that has a shady past that he was lying about?

Well, he was just hanging out in his apartment and he wanted to work. You work in a newspaper. You don't want to work. You want to make money. So you just make it up? Yeah. That's what they do. I don't want to start naming Derek's from the New York Times because he'd be a bunch of them. Well, he wouldn't work there now.

He doesn't work there now. What was his name? New York Times faker. Really? Did he get fined or go to prison or anything? Why would he? It's free speech. Just to lie to the public? Yeah, of course. Lying is free speech. Jason Blair. It was Jason Blair. Not Derrick Bell. I don't even know who that is.

Derrick Bell is the guy. He's the critical race theorist. That guy. That's right. I mean, he makes stuff up too. I'm over here making stuff up. Totally fake news. Yeah, it was Jason Blair. What did he do? He plagiarized and made stuff up and was writing for the New York Times.

Recently? He resigned in 2003. Oh, okay. That was a long time ago. Yeah, it was a long time ago, but that stuff's probably still happening. I think it was Bild or whatever, that German newspaper,

and he was just fabricating news. He got a bunch of awards or something. It's amazing, isn't it? Yeah, but now they've evolved to making up, having machines machines do it for you and you don't know that it's them i think it's the idea you don't want to be the next jason blair what's up jason i wonder what he's doing now well they're supporting now they're using like deep fake videos to support the news that they're writing yeah definitely oh man wow Oh, man. Wow. So you actually are sourcing it to something

that actually just turns out to be fake. Yeah. Like those people that Tim was talking about with the fake event, the fake war games thing. Let's go to...

I know we're evolving to become psychic, or that we could. I don't see, like, what is going to happen to humanity. It's got to be that we'll just become a different species.

Like, Homo sapien is about to turn into something else. Transhumanism. Let's go to Super Chats. If you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button subscribe to this channel and share the show with your friends i'm going to read this later super chat first seven seconds till the end says in the book of revelations it does say that beasts people think the beasts are

viruses that will wipe out at least two-thirds of all humans go to timguest.com become a member we have a members only uncensored show coming up for you at about 11pm those are always very fun and enlightening and tomorrow's guest is going to be a lot of fun I don't know should I announce

who tomorrow's guest is nah you don't think so let it hit him yeah let it hit him 720 740

you'll see it I kind of feel like the guest is big enough to where it's the kind that needs some you know what I mean some sort of prefacing unless

if the guest has confirmed I would say yeah but if the guest hasn't confirmed I mean it's all confirmed it's just you that needs some sort of prefacing. If the guest has confirmed, I would say, yeah. But if the guest hasn't confirmed yet. I mean, it's all confirmed. It's just you never know. No, I mean publicly. Publicly, if they've confirmed publicly. I tend to err on the side of caution. That's a fair point.

Let me check. And then if not, I'll just give a hint, I guess. Yeah, it'll be a fun show. Yeah, I think it's going to be really, really big regardless. I think it's going to be real awesome. I'm so awesome that she's coming. Definitely. It's been an interesting week here. Yeah, I don't's going to be really, really big regardless. I think it's going to be real awesome. I'm so awesome that she's coming. Definitely. It's been an interesting week here.

Yeah, I don't think she's announced. Okay. I think if she did, people would be chatting us being like, oh, wow. For sure. I think for sure. I'm excited. This will be a lot of fun. Just rest assured, I think you guys should show up at 745 or so.

I think people are going to be able to guess, but I'll just say it's one of the most prominent, what, like female conservatives? Yeah. Been in the industry for a very long time. Yeah. Politically active much longer than I've been around. So I think people could probably guess. Conservative.

Conservative. Stop saying Tulsi Gabbard. It's not Marjorie Taylor Greene. She's been on the show before. It was also not Steve Bannon. People are saying Lauren Southern. Lauren's been on the show several times. Someone who's never been on the show before. It was also not Steve Bannon. People are saying Lauren Southern. Lauren's been on the show several times. Someone who's never been on the show before.

Very prominent conservative commentator. That whole thing where her parents got banned from Airbnb was so nuts. Dude. Yeah, right? What? And now they don't use it anymore. Nobody's guessing. I think it's kind of funny.

They're saying Marjorie Taylor Greene. It's going to be a good show. It's going to be one of those where you're like, oh, I didn't even think of that. Yeah, it's going to be when you think about it, you're going to be like, how did I not get that? God, come on. Well deserved. All right. Oh even think of that. Yeah, it's going to be when you think about it, you're going to be like, how did I not get that? God, come on. Well deserved. Oh, Roseanne Bard.

No, but hopefully. Actually, no, we are talking with Roseanne. We just need to find it. Roseanne lives in New York. People are saying Megyn Kelly. I will say. You're talking to Roseanne? Yeah.

That's awesome. Yeah, Roseanne's awesome. I've been a big fan of hers since I was a kid, and I watched that show. Yeah, we were trying to figure out when we can get her to come on, when she's available, when we have time, et cetera. That was like one of the only shows that I ever watched with my family. And there was this one episode where Becky did something wrong, and somehow, like, because Becky did something wrong, I got in trouble.

And I was like, what is going on? I'm not even Becky what are you I'm more like Darlene first of all second of all like I'm not on the TV like I'm here in the house

I'm watching TV with you how could I be in trouble we're gonna go to super chats but I just want to point out many several people in the chat have gotten it correct already

so you've guessed it correctly I'm not telling you who or what but let's read super chats all right Waffle Sensei says welcome to the show Sarah thank you for having a spine and speaking truth your voice can be one of the strongest in the movement to save our kids we are lucky to have you thank you well there you go all right bullseye ben oh is that a is that a gold gem encrusted

beanie from bullseye ben it is this one is for you ian you did awesome in that cast castle video my co-workers thought something was wrong I was laughing so hard oh I was laughing when I watched it it was so good it was so funny that's great the show is called

Rian with Ian that was so fun you need more when I was shooting it with Wesley Wesley Roth was directing and Aaron was there too and at one point

there were so many lines it was just one of these scenes where he wrote a lot and he was like you can just kind of say what you want you know this is the idea but here's some things i want you to hit and i was like getting so frustrated and i like slammed the table and i was like wow i hope that's

on i hope that's on camera because it was like a bill o'reilly moment where i was like just really i was getting into character like feeling steven's frustration of what he's been going through the contract you know like watch it cast castle it's on's on YouTube and on TimCast.com. I don't understand. You know, I guess this will kind of give it away, but everybody was guessing names and like two people

got it right and we were like, yeah, we think a couple of you got it right and then all of a sudden everyone just guessed the right answer

at the same time. All right, let's read more. Let's read more. Yes, and also, I just want to shout out, you may notice

that there are now little beanie emojis for those who are members on the YouTube channel to chat. And there are beanie badges, and there's different colors depending on what level you are. So like the highest level, I think, is an American flag. Yeah, it's an American flag beanie. But that's like three years, right? Yeah, you've got to be there for a while.

I don't think anyone's done that. So it's all about how long you've consecutively been a member? Correct. got to be there for a while i don't think anyone's done that it's all about how long you've consecutively been a member correct yeah and then what we're gonna do is we're gonna make another tier of pure silliness which will give you a golden rooster badge and a bunch of different chicken emojis and just because i don't know yo we got one in the chat it got one what a chicken little america beanie on the chat or so that that. Oh, really? Oh, look at this. Yeah, there you go. There's an America beanie.

S, you've got an American flag beanie. That means you've been a member for what? 36 months? I think it's more than that. 36 months. Yeah. 48 months. We haven't gotten yet.

Yeah. Wow. Long time member. Yeah. Shout out to S. Yeah. Smith with the red pills. What's up, dude? Yeah.

People posting red pills. Yeah. We got emojis now, too. Saying the names of people. People posting red pills. Yeah, we got emojis now, too. Saying the names of people. Alright, SA Federali says, on AI, I was a young pothead building half-pipes. I DIR through Windows 3.1,

found Dr. Watson. My friends would make it cuss. I told it to calculate pi and it went on forever. Supposedly not IBM's Watson. Gates gave city names to OS code names. Could Sydney be Australia, the next OS? Have you guys ever,

you ever hear of Dr. Spezo? No. You want to look that up? Yeah. It was just like, I don't even know what it was. I just remember that you could, you could type in,

say a word, and it would, robot. Yeah, dude, this is like one of the original, speak, yeah,

creative labs. Yeah, I had Dr. Spezo. and you'd be like you know say something and then it would the robotic voice would say it 1991 ms dos uh and you could literally assign it came with the name is an acronym for sound blaster artificial intelligence text to speech organizer sound blaster it was a sound blaster thing sound blaster artifice was created well yeah that s s is a member, just S,

and with an American flag beanie, the ultimate top tier beanie. There's Eric Ailman was in there too. Oh, yeah. Yeah. And then we're going to make the chicken tier memberships,

which will be like needlessly more expensive because if you want it, you can have it, but it's like a choice. And then we'll put a whole bunch of chicken emojis and your badge will be

a golden rooster. Yep. Rooster. I love the American flag beanie. Yeah. Yeah, that's cool. JT Fire says, I did not know that I needed Biden and Trump

playing Overwatch. Biden ate her forever. Yeah. I found it funny because I literally play Overwatch before the show and I'm wondering if I get endorsed. So I don't know if you guys ever play Overwatch. You guys ever play it?

No? Oh, yeah. The first one. I haven't touched the second one yet. I'm wondering if I get endorsed. I don't know if you guys ever play Overwatch. You guys ever play it? The first one. I haven't touched the second one yet. I'm playing Overwatch 2. I know that I'm really good because after every match, whether I win or lose, everyone endorses me. My username is Timcast, so that must mean I'm really good at the game.

They click the button saying they like you. I think people are probably just like, they know who I am. They're like, oh yeah, shout out or something. I only like playing No Limits. I don't like playing Ranked or any of that stuff. Do you ever go in voice chat and be like, do you know who I am? No.

Why would I do that? Hey, what character are you using right now? What's your main? Oh man, I don't know. Probably Symmetra. I like, but Moira, I'm like undefeatable. Like just, I got like 15 player killstreaks. I think Moira is just like an easy character to play.

Yeah. Moira, but Symmetra is the most fun because if you know how to place the sentry turrets in clever ways, it's just like you're playing these casual games and these people don't understand because they're looking for, I don't know. Movement, they're looking for movement.

No, no, the sentry turrets you place and then they try and blow them up because they're shooting at them. But I put them on like lampposts or you put them in crevices. You put them in weird places where they're hard to see and hard to shoot at.

And then... But my favorite is playing No Limits when everyone plays Symmetra and then we just line the enemy's door with sentry turrets and as soon as they walk out, they instantly die. Sounds like NATO.

All right. Enough Overwatch talk. Anyway, that video made me laugh a lot because I've been playing Overwatch a lot. Sounds right what do we got because reason says deep fakes won't exist in five years that's how fast this is moving in five years you will make your own porn whatever that happens to be yes but what if if you can you can make a video of joe biden declaring war and it'll be indistinguishable you could make a video of joe biden declaring war and it'll be indistinguishable you could make a video of joe biden declaring war while doing porn yeah oh yeah can i just say to everybody who plays overwatch i just want to well i have the opportunity with so many people who listen

to this show please fight on the point can i just do you guys always stand on the point can you i'm just i'm just i'm so. I know I'm just playing casual. I like playing no limits. But it's like, I'm the only one on the robot. I'm the only one on the point. And they're chasing after the enemy, getting broken apart. And then one Lucio jumps on and captures it. And now we've got to wait another five minutes.

And I'm like, my guys. I understand if you're trying to keep them off the point initially. But once they break your line, you've got to stay on the robot. Yeah, man, if you have a chance to take the core take the core don't go get a mercenary camp i'm talking about heroes of the storm right now do not do not look a gift horse in the mouth if you have an opportunity to take it home take it home yo i had a game where we were like 0.03 meters from pushing the payload and then everyone's just fighting off point and i'm like you you realize the moment they go off we win just get on the some people play for fun other people play to win so the people that play for fun want combat they want

player versus player the action they don't care about them i know but i like a little mix i'm not playing just for like if i was going to play just to win it'd be ranked i like having fun and playing different characters but i mean you're still trying to win to a certain degree come on all right all right anyway anyway enough uh overwatch talk h22 says biden needs to use ai chat to do his speeches and pre-recorded videos i'd vote for him uh if uh if for that i mean that's a good point why doesn't he just deep fake himself yeah yeah there you go yeah somebody should do that wajan says deep fakes could be a win for legacy media it could be the go-to excuse to dismiss media online.

True. Didn't think about that. No, because CNN posts fake news all the time. They're going to be like, trust us, we're real. No, you're not. You're just running the fake news on TV. Well, and certainly newspapers have posted fake news all the time. We just talked about Jason Player.

Ben Hickson says, Tim, Ian, are you looking forward to Atomic Hearts? It is a future era Soviet Bioshock like game have you played Prey 2016? Has the trolley problem? Oh that sounds fun

I haven't played That sounds interesting Prey I gotta say the first Bioshock is a masterpiece the subsequent Bioshocks are kind of meh

Bioshock Infinite I think is okay but Bioshock 1 the video game is a masterpiece. You know, my type of games is like Divinity 2. I love isometric role-playing games, so I'm really looking forward to Baldur's Gate 3 release,

and I think we're going to do a live stream of that. Myself, perhaps pixelated Apollo. He's into it. And maybe Tim. I don't know if you're into RPGs, if that's something you want to do. I used to play more RPGs when I was younger. I was playing Breath of Fire for a while because I bought a Super Nintendo.

Oh, yeah. Breath of Fire was good. I think I played Breath of Fire 4. I beat Mario RPG a couple months ago. It's remarkable playing Mario RPG as an old man now because everything I do is timed perfectly. When I was a kid, it was like I'm playing Mario and I'm trying to time it and I'm messing up. Now I'm old and I'm playing this game for the first time in 20 years and everything is super easy. And I'm just like, wow, this game is a lot easier than I realized.

Yeah, Punch-Out. You guys played Nintendo Punch-Out, Mike Tyson's Punch-Out. It was so hard when I was nine, but now... Now it's not hard. Yeah, just read the cues. No, I haven't played video games in a while, but I did buy the new Harry Potter game. How is it?

I haven't played it. Oh, yeah. Because again, I haven't played video games in a while, so I still just have an Xbox One. And so apparently I can't play it till april is the jk rowling thing making it hard for you to play the game no it's the fact that i have an old system and can't play so you're buying a new system in april no it's actually pretty no no so they released it it's weird so like with all the new consoles they released it like last week with the older systems like uh xbox one and what like whatever ps whatever playstation it was they were they're not releasing it until like april april 4th or

something like that yeah and so i think that because they want you to get the new system to play you know early releases and stuff yeah all right anthony says tim your earlier stories of nikki taylor and Taylor and Chelsea are all examples of why women deserve less why women deserve less by Myron Gaines now available for purchase

for purchase audio book coming soon is that is Fresh and Fit dude or what what was that what's that all about Nikki Haley

yeah I don't know what he's well I did segments on Don Lemon saying she's past her prime oh right Chelsea Chelsea Handler I love this one

Chelsea Handler responded in a sense to matt walsh tucker carlson ben shapiro me and jesse kelly because we were all to a certain degree critical of her video on her video about masturbating and getting high and doing drugs but but here's the thing she included a picture of me in the receding hairline club and i'm like okay well i guess thank you chelsea for including me in this because she didn't actually criticize anything i said about her like ben shapiro called her miserable jesse keller very hilariously mocked her and matt walsh said something similar but my point that i made i didn't say she was miserable anything like that i said

people who don't have kids are going to find themselves in their deathbed in a sterile hospital room the doctor is going to walk in and say, is there anyone we should call? And you'll say no. And he'll say, okay, well, we're around. Call us if you need us. And then you're going to be sitting in this room as you lay dying, scared, with no one there to be there for you

or to comfort you. I didn't say she was miserable. I think she's probably happy as a pig in, well, we've already been swearing in this show, right? She's happy as a pig in shit as she wakes up, does drugs, and masturbates. That sounds like she's probably happy as a pig and well we've already been swearing in the show right she's happy as a pig and shit as she wakes up does drugs and masturbates that sounds like she's having a blast i mean maybe she's a good auntie or something i don't know i don't good aunties will have people around i heard that argument that you were saying about having kids to have people around you when you're old i don't know if i'd like that as an argument of why because

if you just get a bunch of women pregnant you're gone nope and you never see your kids they don't give they're not gonna come no one cares about you. They will come. They will come. If you're an amazing human being with no kids, you might have people all around you near the end of your life that just support you

and are reminding you that what you did on earth was valuable. So I don't know. Well, you'd have to make friends with people who are younger than you because by the time you're old, all your friends are dead.

Right. Like fans of your work and things like that. Or like just people you mentor or something or like you know if you're if you have um nieces or nephews or foster families people that you foster or like you know this is in the arts there were always young people who are being um you know friends with older artists and stuff i don't know i think that's a good point though if you're like the cool aunt, then maybe. The cool auntie is a thing.

That's a thing. Savvy auntie. The other thing I wonder, too, is maybe she can't have kids and she doesn't want to come out and say that she's barren. And so she tries to find ways to justify a positive feeling around it.

And if that is the case, it's really brutal to mock her and call her miserable like maybe she's trying to make the best of a really bad situation and she's she really is deep down inside sad that it never happened for her she can't so she's just like well i can do drugs and masturbate and everyone's just ragging on her and mocking her i'm like you know it's kind of brutal you know well did she even write that bit probably not it was like she probably was like okay I'll do that bit the bit was bad because

it was like does she not have a job you know it's like it's not kids that make it so you can't wake up and do drugs and masturbate it's like responsibility in general so she clearly has none and that sounds really depressing just make funny jokes basically

no she doesn't she's not funny did you guys know Sarah Silverman's hosting the Daily Show And that sounds really depressing. Just make funny jokes, basically. I don't know. She doesn't. She's not funny. She's not. I like Chelsea. You know, did you guys know Sarah Silverman's hosting The Daily Show? Yeah. She's not funny either. I had no idea.

She was funny yesterday. Sarah Silverman is not funny. Her bit has always been just to offend you. But then it got funny because once offending people became taboo, she didn't know what to do. And now she's for national divorce. She is? Oh, yeah.

I think we talked about that. She made that video like last year yeah yeah and then we liked her we were like oh okay well you know we can agree on that she would live in america too i think is what she said america too we could have america one because it's important to us oh look at this angela mccardle is that a silver beanie with blue gems encrusted on it that's a long time membership sarah's work is valuable to keep conservative side of the culture war from overcorrecting. Thank you and keep fighting the good fight. See you at the anti-war rally Sunday. Yes.

Thank you, Angela. She's the chair of the LP and we are doing the anti-war rally, the Rage Against the War Machine on Sunday, 1230, starting at the Lincoln Memorial. And it's going to move to the White House. I have a speaking spot at the White House. So, yeah, hope to see everybody there. All right. Thomas Sidebottom says, Bing is connected to a live internet with ChatGPT. The training set is closed.

Bing is doing the same thing, but with real human response training data. Interesting. Yeah. Crazy. The Bing stuff looks fun man i signed up for the for the early wait list i'm hoping i can get access to it rbk says i was chase bank with a question and the operator was about to ask questions to identify me and the guy said oh never mind you've been voice authenticated scary stuff yeah because that means somebody could just deepfake your voice and then call in Hi, I'm John.

It's like, okay, you're good. What do you want to do with your money? Give it to Bill. Done. Oh. Alright, what do we got here? What do we got here? John White says, last week you did a piece on George Kelly, the AZ rancher being held on $1 million bail. His family set up a give-send-go

campaign titled George Allen Kelly Legal Defense Fund. Help get him home. Much more to his story, so keep covering. We should definitely figure that one out. Maybe even send someone down there to figure out what happened. This is the guy that they accused of shooting an illegal immigrant who was in multiple felonies or something like that. He kept crossing the border.

And people had reported multiple gunshots earlier in the day. So they arrest the 73-year-old guy and they're holding him on a million dollars bail which like makes no sense because where's this guy gonna go i guess because he lives on the border they're like i don't know 10 feet over the border it's like well the federales will bring him back what are you talking about his house is right there all right all right lightning fire says do you think ai will be used by terrorists where anything can be possible everything be off limits would gun control even work with ai when anyone can build with 3d printing machine imagine how crazy it's going to be when in the future when you just go to the ai a the ai

and 3d printing advances well beyond just plastics and pla or whatever abs and it can mill metal and mold metal and you're like i'd like an ar-15 mil spec please five five, and it can mill metal and mold metal and you're like, I'd like an AR-15 mil-spec, please, 556. And it's like, okay. And then it just starts making all the parts and puts it all together for you. Perfectly form-fit to your hand. Hey, for that matter, in Star Trek,

how come they never did that? You know? Because Star Trek was trying to look at us as our best selves. But they could make a phaser if they needed one. They couldn't replicate phasers. Why not? I think it was the replicator didn't do it.

I'm pretty sure the replicator... Did the replicator do it? I thought the replicator didn't do it. If it can make food. I think food is more complicated. That's already pretty incredulous. That's ridiculous. That was definitely the fantasy part of the... I guess the idea of Star Trek was that the nacelles would absorb free hydrogen and then

use that matter in the replicators and convert it into denser materials. Yeah, fusion in the matter replicator. Yeah. And bonding, do chemical bonding. And you'd be like, I'd like a cheeseburger, and it would make one. But what do you do with the cup? Like, you know how Picard would be like, tea, Earl Grey, hot. And then it makes the glass, and then he takes the glass out.

You didn't see he just throws it in the trash can. He throws it out the window or something? Yeah, what happens to that? I think you put it back in the replicator, yeah. And then it's like matter reclamation. The crazy thing is, technically, based on the lore of Star Trek, you could replicate people. Really? Well, that's what the transporters do.

Like the episode where Riker got split into two people. That's right. Oh, confirmed from Wikipedia, yes, they can recycle. The replicators do recycle things so can they make phasers i don't know that's probably a big article they can make batleths for sure what about a gun oh they did i think well they can make a spoon or a knife but imagine like that'd be a funny parody where it's like replicate me a glock 17 i want a tomm gun. Fully loaded. Right. Well, the holodeck. They do that in the holodeck. Yeah. Yeah, of course.

And then they get shot. That's so dumb. And then when you take the safeties off. Yeah, the safeties off. And then you have a whole episode of being scared of the holodeck. We're trapped in the holodeck and they're going to shoot us. That show was fun. Oh, I love it.

All right. Where are we at? It's my like comfort show. Special shout out to LeVar Burton and Reading Rainbow Buddy B says I've been I've been tentative about membership due to funds

but would 100% throw money at Ian for morning meditation factory work these days calls for Zen you know my first thought is you want to wake up at 8am

no but if you do have to wake up at 8am meditating is one of the best things you can do if you want to clear your mind and be refreshed for the day stretching first thing I do when I wake up is I stretch.m. meditating is one of the best things you can do if you want to clear your mind and be refreshed for the day. Stretching.

First thing I do when I wake up is I stretch. What we'll do is we'll record at midnight because it's technically the morning and then it'll be uploaded at 8 a.m. for everybody. But it'd be nicer if it was live. Ian's midnight meditation. Yeah, live stream because I think the power of multiple humans

meditating together regardless of where we are, the entanglement. Instead of just watching something that previously happened. Waffle says, Tim, you're playing overwatch with 12 year olds bro it's not going to get better i'm sorry i know i know that's the case so do they dance over you when you die you can really tell when you're playing against a team well that's the funny thing it's like

i've played where i mean dude it's such a fast-paced game if you start teabagging you're done you're done like i'm gonna walk up and. If you start teabagging, you're done. Like, I'm going to walk up, and then you start doing a stupid thing, and then you're instantly wiped out. Is it how you pronounce that word? Reticule? That's what I like. Does it bounce, or is it always straight in the middle?

No matter how fast you're moving, no matter if you jump, it's always directly in the middle of the screen? Or does it bounce and wave as you're running? That's why I never got into Overwatch, because I felt like I was playing Borderlands 2, and I like the gunplay of Borderlands 2. Felt a lot more realistic and challenging.

If you're running, you don't have perfect aim when you're running. Just felt kind of robotic. Overwatch. Brett Ain't Dead in the member chat says, Tim, what do you play Overwatch on? Either way, add me. Same name on here. We'll crush 86 babies. I play on PS5, and my username is Timcast.

And I imagine the next time I turn my PlayStation on, it's going go bling bling bling bling find request for a request for a request and uh it's it's fun playing with a real team and you know you're playing with other 30 year old men because everyone team like groups up before running in when you can tell you're playing with little kids because everyone dies sporadically and then run out one at a time. Also their whole team is there just five shot, like, you know, five versus one,

five versus one. And I'm just like, please just wait 20 seconds for the group to come together. Rushing in. Wait for five, wait for five, please. Like the Leroy Jenkins.

Right. That's exactly what it is. I'll play at night. And like, you can tell people are getting drunker and higher. The later the night goes on. Cause like by 3 a.m., no one's even talking on chat.

Ant 345 says, Bungie is woke as hell but I love Destiny, Hunter class for life. Yeah, I stopped playing Destiny a while ago. I played Destiny

since the beginning of it and then, I can't remember the last one I played. Destiny 2 was one of the last ones I played. Well, there's a bunch of expansions

so the last one I played I think was when the darkness was released and you were able to wield the darkness or whatever I'm not familiar with Destiny Destiny's a fun game Hey Ian, so when do you wake up? It depends on the day, I woke up at 1 today I woke up at

9am yesterday for a 10am meeting, I try to take late meetings I usually start my day around 2, I work 2 to 11 basically, so I woke up at 9 a.m. yesterday for a 10 a.m. meeting. I try to take late meetings. I usually start my day around 2. I work 2 to 11, basically. So I get up around 1, go to bed about 3 a.m. usually. That's fair. Nelson Nelvils has cast, has anyone ever recognized you while gaming?

Ian, does anybody recognize you while gaming or anything? Not unless they know I'm gaming ahead of time. And I always feel, it feels weird. Like I like the anonymity. That was a big problem of why I kind of dipped out on social media for a decade is because like I was going to chat rooms and we were all having genuine conversation.

Then I started to get well known. And when I'd go into the chat room, the conversation would stop and people would be like, Ian's here, Ian, Ian. And I'm like, no, I just want to have a conversation. So no, the short answer is no. For me, my PlayStation username has always been Timcast well before I had any substantial amount of followers.

So I just log into the same thing every time. But my joke earlier was I get endorsed every time I play and I don't think it's because I'm good at the game. I think people are just like, oh, hey, TimCast, you know, and they click endorse. So it's like, you've been endorsed. And I'm just like, yeah, I'm pretty sure I was not doing that well. I get played the game a lot though.

The sad thing about being famous is like, do those people really like me? Do they really like me? Or are they just, I hate that. Well, I'm playing casual. I'm not playing ranked. If I was playing ranked, they might be like, hey, it's cool you're here, dude, but you're costing us the game. You know what I mean? Not true.

So playing the casual stuff, like No Limits, where you just get like six Symmetras to all run in at the same time and pepper everything with turrets is just the most hilarious thing ever. And then the one thing I can't stand is when everyone thinks it's funny to play Mercy. And I'm like, what do you guys think? Like six healers on one person is going to stop you from losing? I don't know. Whatever. It's fun though. It's all good fun. All right.

Mr. Juzno says, isn't drinking distilled water bad for you? I remember hearing that it lacks the minerals, thereby diluting the mineral levels in your cells. That is correct. At least that's what I understand, right? Yeah, you're supposed to reintroduce minerals to distilled water bad for you i remember hearing that it lacks the minerals thereby diluting the mineral levels in your cells that is correct at least that's what i understand right yeah you're supposed to reintroduce minerals to distill it water and that's why our filtration system has added minerals right yeah oh yeah in addition if to uh filter vinyl chloride out of your water i heard that you could do activated charcoal and reverse osmosis combined those two things oh here we go jason dixon's got a gold beanie with red jewels encrusted

to it and he says two years seven months 23 days get on my level yes get on his level yeah yeah i don't know maybe maybe uh there's other stuff we can add to make youtube memberships mean something more i mean the the the issue i, is there is a chat now. And we're getting massive feedback from people being like, we can actually have conversations. This is cool. People were using Chicken City. This is the thing people didn't understand. They would turn the show on and then open Chicken City and use the Chicken City live stream chat as the chat for this show.

These are things that we saw where we're like, okay, this chat clearly isn't working. What can we do? So you can always go hang out in Chicken City live stream chat for free and talk about whatever you want. Or we figured the membership thing is a way to make a clean chat with no limits so you don't got to wait five, six seconds or whatever and you can just chat. I like it. Golden

Gaming's saying free the chat. Almighty Antichrist. Nobody cares. Dash Z dash. Love it it like you guys are there I can see you now I know Tracer's in the chat red beanies equals MAGA beanies Tracer's got a red beanie maybe we should put MAGA on the red beanie we could do that yeah a little MAGA

there's also the 20 sided die the 20 on the 20 sided die and the 1 on the 20 sided die but it's hard to see the number so that was about rolling 20 so we'll have to figure that one out we already got that coming on the update so okay cool cool

and then we're gonna we're gonna create the golden cock-a-roll update so smash that like button subscribe to this channel share the show

Someone made a, Miguel is saying, I would do TimCast after show if it were live.

That's a really good point. And we're going to look into that because I think it is possible to do a private members only live stream on Rumble. We just need to figure out how to do it. Yeah, we can do it.

We can definitely do that. I'm pretty sure we could. We've been asked before to do it yeah it's a yeah we can do it definitely do that i'm pretty sure we could we've been asked before to do that i believe because we can do the members only as a live stream on timcast.com yeah it'd save us some time after is there a live chat because that'd get wild if you weren't talking yeah probably through rumble i imagine that would be cool let's figure it out because then we could take questions and stuff from the members as well and that would be that would be lit that would be very fun yeah anyway Libby you want to shout anything out sure I'm at Libby Emmons
