Donald Trump is back, ladies and gentlemen.
The man is back.
He's on Facebook.
He's on YouTube.
He has posted officially.
And there's some rumors that he may be returning to Twitter as well soon.
We will see.
It's hard to know for sure.
So we're going to talk about that.
And as you may have noticed, it's St. Patrick's Day.
So we had a special title card today.
And so we're going to have a good relaxing time.
We also got to talk about, because St. Patrick's Day, Joe Biden, who said that he's not really Irish because he doesn't have any family members because he's sober and his family members aren't in jail, which I find highly offensive.
As a Persian person who is part Irish, Joe Biden has no right to insult my people.
That being said, Seamus, everybody.
Well said.
That's a that's actually a really good point, Seamus.
It is very offensive to make
stereotypical jokes about Irish people in that way as an Irish person myself I am deeply offended by
what Joe Biden has said yeah and potato jokes stuff like that I know yeah so uh thanks for
hanging out Seamus of Freedom Tunes you know we missed you and we're glad that you're back but
joining us in actuality is uh Jenny Te. Do you want to introduce yourself?
Thank you.
Hi, Jenny Ter with the Daily Caller News Foundation.
I'm a reporter who covers immigration and the border.
Right on.
Thanks for hanging out.
Should be a relaxing Friday, I suppose.
Phil?
Potato's a tough act to follow, I know.
I am Phil Labonte, lead singer of All That Remains, anti-communist and counter-revolutionary.
And if you didn't know, I'm Ian Crossland.
That's a sweet potato.
It's blasphemy.
It's not even a real potato.
It's a potato.
I like them better.
It's a different kind of potato.
Jenny, you said you were on both borders.
This is a crazy story.
I mean, I'm sure you've got so much to talk about.
We'll talk about it on the show.
It was great to see you.
For sure.
Thank you.
You can follow me anywhere, but let's get to it.
Kellen, we got.
What's happening?
Hey, what's up, everybody? Happy St. Patrick's Day. It was great to see you. For sure. Thank you. You can follow me anywhere, but let's get to it. Kellen, we got you. What's happening? Hey, what's up, everybody? Happy St. Patrick's
Day. It's Kellen. Quick

You'll also notice there's a Discord button now, there on the left you can see i'm highlighting it
and when you go to that it will give you the instructions on how to sign up for the discord
server which is a chat program you can hang out with other members of the website and we reopened
chat for everybody because now members are it's all consolidated so the main issue was we had
people who were like hey there's no real way to chat when the show's going live because the chat goes crazy
and so we were like let's try a members only chat to see if that works and a lot of people were like
this is awesome but there were a lot of people who didn't want to become members or people who
are already members at timcast.com like i don't want to sign up twice so we decided well we want
to launch a discord so now if you're a member at timcast you get access to the members only chat
room which we should have up and running on our end monday so that for the members only
uncensored shows we can take in a call from the uh from the members from you guys and there are
varying tiers we've set up you can check that out and like a vip club if you want to be in that
where we'll have uh timcast crew members and other such people hanging out and the other thing i'll
say is uh i've got wicked food poisoning i am very sick so i may just like sit here drooling on myself while
phil ian and jenny talk about everything but uh i i didn't want to uh i don't want the show to get
canceled but honestly like after we filmed the culture war podcast this morning i just went to
sleep and i woke up at like 6 30 and they were like are we doing the show or not i'm like i'm
coming you know it's just i eat yogurt. I still care as yogurt.
I had to do it.
That's fine.
It had to be done.
The aloe also,
if you want to drink a shot of that,
it'll do it.
Probably a good thing.
So anyway, we're here
and we're going to talk about
a lot of fun stuff
and it's good that we are
because Donald Trump is back.
Here's the first story that we got.
TimGaz.com.
Trump's YouTube has been restored.
Posts first video in two years.
This channel will continue
to be subject to our policies just like any other channel. Ladies and gentlemen, let me video in two years. This channel will continue to be subject to our
policies just like any other channel. Ladies and gentlemen, let me just scroll right down.
Here's the video from Donald J. Trump. Sorry to keep you waiting. Complicated business.
Complicated. That was it. Sorry to keep you waiting. Complicated business. Complicated.
Four seconds. Four seconds of Donald Trump posted posted it's got 115 000 views and then the
other big news is that trump is back on facebook he posts for the first time on facebook since
january 6 2021 and i think he just posted in big capital letters i'm back i think that's what it
was you know someone had mentioned that the mistake he's been making lately is that he's
still in 2015 underdog mindset i think it's patrick bett david and that he's now he's like the favorite so he doesn't he needs to use different tactics i think
if he just started doing short youtube videos of like i love you you're gonna do great in life
simple like basic he should eat a taco bowl yeah you know eat the common food speak to the common
man but just give them short bursts of positive energy that's all he needs to do to start rolling
right now.
I'm not going to be happy until he's back on Twitter calling Rosie O'Donnell fat.
I'm not going to be happy until he's doing it. Didn't he say something about starting a women's WNBA team of men?
No.
I heard someone say that.
I should fact check that.
Please do.
And if it's true, Donald, please do.
Maybe he didn't say that.
Someone told me that he said that.
Maybe not.
I don't know.
It's all very topical. I was just watching this interview with Michael Malice and Patrick Bet-David on Valuetainment.
We talked about it a little bit before the show.
And they were talking about Truth Social, the valuation of the company has dipped, apparently.
I haven't been able to verify this, but they were both talking about it, too.
It's like worth half of what it was worth and that they're like why hasn't
he been on twitter well patrick surmised that it's probably because he's trying to get make
sure people keep coming to his website to pay back his investors with trump uh the company that
owns truth social uh that spack that they did and then is that dwack his dwack i'm not sure
i'm not sure but um that and they're like maybe if true social because
they were like it's true social about to crumble like is it falling apart are they about to close
it down and if it does is that good for trump and then they were arguing whether it is or not
some people like it'll free him up he doesn't have to please his past investors anymore he can go do
whatever he wants again i mean it's it's down quite a bit but uh that's only because when it
started it spiked and then i think duac reached like 100 bucks a share March 2020, around March of 2022.
What is this?
Trump's not as fun without the audience.
Like Trump is like Trump isn't Trump's, you know, Trump can say stuff on Truth Social,
but he's not like when he's preaching to his own crowd.
It's not as funny as when he's on Twitter with like reply guys going at it and you know saying
things to get people worked up because half the fun of trump on twitter was reading the replies
and watching people you know make videos and stuff so i'm not i'm not i'm not gonna be happy
until he's fully restored to twitter do you consider yourself political jenny are you just
no i'm pretty straight i think also like Trump's Twitter
like you were saying
like it drove the news cycle
like I don't think
Truth Social
when he posts on there
does that at all
nobody cares
I think you need an account
to even read stuff
it's crazy
you need it to be
at least publicly
able to be read
if you want it to be
part of the news cycle
the great thing about
Trump was
Cole Pfeffi
I mean
oh that's
you're not getting that with him
posting a truth social i'm actually offended they won't tell us what really happened
like wasn't it we had cash patel here and he was like i know what happened but i'm not telling you
and it's like dude how dare you we must know the secrets of covfefe he also said that like
only like it was only like two people that actually knew and i'm i'm dubious about whether
anyone knows at all somebody sausage fingered the phone
yeah they were whoops i sent it and then they were like what happened another point that they
were making about the problems that true social may be having it's tough to tell because like
you said there was a spike in the beginning is that elon musk bought twitter and the whole point
of true social is we're going to make a free speech social network so he did it he set it up
they got investment they got it going and then elon bought twitter and was like now twitter is a free speech social network and everyone was like well what's the
point of truth now but also really like right away truth social turned into the right wing
so it wasn't it wasn't just like the free speech alternative it was so heavily partisan
that it became the antithesis to twitter so twitter is where all the left-leaning
people were for a long time until musk look at mastodon well that's what happened with yeah gone
who talks about mastodon there's still some people out there on twitter they're really committed
leftist and there are people are committed to truth but it doesn't matter it's not in the
conversation no no it's not at all it's not at all partisan social media is not the way social
media is supposed to be a neutral ground i mean i think the best social media is not a neutral offering
where people can go at it if they want or they can like communicate it's hard if someone's like
blocking a certain type of person it's terrible and you know the thing like there's a lot of
people that that when musk bought twitter they were they were upset that it wasn't a pure
free speech platform.
And I don't think that there was ever going to be – I think that that was a mistake to think that it was ever going to be purely free speech where like you were never going to have Twitter turn into 4chan's B board.
You know what I mean?
It was never going to be a Chan board or whatever. But with Musk, there aren't ideas that are repressed in the same way that ideas were
repressed when, you know, the previous owners had Twitter because that, you know, all the stuff with
that's coming out now about the about, you know, whether it be the administration or whether it be
COVID stuff and stuff with Fauci or where COVID came from, et cetera,
that stuff would have been heavily suppressed
had the ownership still been the previous owners.
And I don't think there's a lot of art.
I don't think there's a lot of substance to arguments against that perspective.
Yeah, I agree.
Were you thinking something when you were saying that?
I think like, as weird as it sounds i think
like the minute elon took over discover the magic of bad mgm casino where the excitement is always

Twitter.
I was like, holy crap, all of the DMs, like in my spam DMs, it was like so many weird
people that came through, which I guess is like a side effect of having to like open up the entire
space. But it was weird to see more interaction that way, more interaction and like comments on
things. I think it really did like open up what
you know maybe people consider shadow banning or you know suppression of different accounts like i
think it really did change like automatically i could tell and there was like a week after he
bought it i think all a bunch of subscribers were lost and gained by different accounts all at once
a lot of stuff what's that Leftists were losing followers like crazy
and the right was gaining followers like crazy.
I gained a huge chunk.
I gained like-
Well, that means you're far right, Ian.
7% of my-
That proves it.
Or 1% or something increase.
But it was a large increase, yeah.
That proves it.
Guarantees.
Lock them up.
Jail.
Jail for Ian.
He said today he's going to be open sourcing
all code used to recommend tweets on March 31st. Wow. This is a tweet from about 5 o'clock today. That's big. There's going to be open sourcing uh open source all code used to recommend tweets on march 31st wow from about five o'clock today that's gonna be like there's gonna be a code in there
it says like if donald trump equals yes then promote equals no yeah i'm not even kidding i
mean like obviously he's got rid of that stuff but we'll probably see some some stuff like that
that he didn't that's fine yeah but he threads on and says that it's going to be embarrassing for
for him and for twitter for this stuff to be brought on there because it's the code is so horribly
done.
He's just been complaining about it for months,
but he said,
you know,
that's the first step.
It's the humility.
You acknowledge how crappy it is.
And then the community starts building it and fixing it and contributing.
It's going to be great.
This is the first step.
It's not,
this doesn't mean he's open sourcing everything.
In fact,
mine's replied.
The open source organism will self organize into something powerful.
This is the way bill talks. Yeah sure to hit the social media organism open source organism will self
organize into something powerful i was like did you misspeak did you mean organization oh that's
how bill talks he thinks of social media as a living organism in the universe and stuff he
talks about it like it's an organism demon maybe sometimes a borg tiktok is for sure yeah creepy man it's ruined me i'm a victim yes how often are
you on tiktok um every morning every night it's the only way i survive honestly really oh yeah
well what do you what do you watch totally rotted my brain you watch like teenagers talk about
cutting their junk off or something no no i'm not on that. I'm like on the like influencer, like, you know, girl who lives in New York.
I'm on the cooking TikToks.
I'm on the travel TikToks.
The chocolate dude, the chocolate maker dude.
There's this dude that makes chocolate and like he'll make like he made a velociraptor out of chocolate.
And he made like a crane arm thing out of chocolate and it's
like crazy crazy stuff and people in the chat you know who i'm talking about when i talk about the
chocolate guy i like the uh the workout tiktoks because i'm i'm trying to get my figure better
so i have to watch these women you know in yoga pants all the time i'm kidding i think it's
completely ridiculous they do this is this this Omri Gushon?
I don't know his name.
So when you're on TikTok, is it like, do you notice the algorithm trying to feed you things
to get you to go down different paths?
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
And the problem is that when you're in social settings, after you like watch TikTok so much
and you're so addicted, like you're always looking for like that quick hit of dopamine
and you're not getting it in normal social settings
like you would on TikTok.
So you're always like, I'm so bored.
And I cut myself off.
It's horrible.
And it happens to a lot of people.
I'm pretty sure like girls were getting like
tics from TikTok.
They were.
That was a big story.
They started twitching
because the algorithm would feed them videos
of women with Tourette's and then they would watch these videos endlessly of women ticking
and then they would start developing ticks this is the crazy thing when I saw a story like that
I was like maybe maybe women are more susceptible to social engineering than men I mean I think I
shouldn't say maybe I think it's factually true so the fact that women can generate a fake social
Tourette's says a lot about what social media is doing to the fabric of society.
And I don't think you can have the 19th Amendment and social media at the same time.
Yeah, I think we should keep the 19th Amendment.
No way.
No way.
Social media is way more useful.
I'll cut that anyway, though.
AI is better than law.
You could argue that.
Like, no amount of copyright law can catch up with the amount of AI advancement.
That thing's just completely obliterating the 1500s law of can't share my thing like it takes pictures from
all over the internet that are all copywritten a bunch of them are and then it just feeds you
like totally violates copyright law but there's no way to stop it you're talking about ai yeah
you know what i gotta say though about the 19th amendment now that i'm like sick and don't care
all that much because i feel like crap i don't
care what these liberal lefty women think about that about me or my views anyway you know so if
like all the conservative women are coming on this show and being like yes we should repeal the 19th
i'm just gonna be like okay i guess like i'm not gonna pander to these leftist cult members they
don't mean anything to me but then like what am i supposed to do tell the conservative women they're
wrong because like hey all these women are saying this thing, but you're wrong.
It's like, well, either respect their agency as women who want to repeal the 19th through
their own vote, or I don't.
So if I'm going to respect them as women and their right to choose and make political decisions,
their decision would be to give up their right to vote.
I mean, personally, I don't, I think that there is something to the argument that people
need to have skin in the game if they're voting.
So you have to have, you know, just being able
to vote for the
government to give you, you know,
whatever kind of benefits or whatever,
you know, that's not fair to the
rest of the population. Yeah, service guarantees citizenship.
Exactly, you know, so I agree.
I don't think that it should be just
based on gender.
I understand the arguments that people make and the arguments about, you know, generally women are more emotional and blah, blah, blah.
I understand that. But I still don't think that it should be based on gender.
But I do think that there is an argument to be made that, you know, which is the same argument that's been, you know, been for a long time.
The reason why men had the had the vote and women didn't is men were
were responsible for the women so if a woman went out and did something that was wrong men would get
punished so like if a woman destroyed a man you know someone else's something men would end up
being you know we have to be responsible for the bigger issue is that men were drafted for war
that and drafted for the fire brigade sure and the idea was if you are here to volunteer for the community, then you have a right to vote.
And then women advocated for the suffragettes said we shouldn't have to do anything and we should get the right to vote anyway.
And they were like, okay.
But that makes no sense.
I think civil responsibility.
I don't think the suffragettes were making that argument.
I think they were because the argument.
No, that was a big component of i was reading a bunch about uh the the fire brigade was a big issue for the women who opposed the uh women's suffrage
specifically i can't remember the woman's name but the the opponents of women's suffrage said
outright i don't want to be drafted yes or forced to join the fire brigade yeah okay the argument
was i don't want the civil responsibilities that come with voting that's for men to do
and then the suffragettes were like we should get those anyway want the civil responsibilities that come with voting that's for men to do. And then the suffragettes were like, we should get those anyway, regardless of civil responsibilities.
So the compromise was made when passing the 19th Amendment that women would be exempt
from fire brigade and exempt.
And because that was the argument from the anti-suffragettes.
They were like, OK, well, how about this?
We don't require any civic duty and you get to vote anyway.
And they were like, well, now we have no argument.
What are your thoughts, Jenny? You're a woman. I want to know. I mean, women gave birth
to all these men making the decisions and to all the soldiers that were fighting, you know,
and a lot of them in wartime did step up and aid these soldiers and, you know, helped in different
ways. I mean, I believe I should have the right to vote. I believe women should have the right to
vote. There's that Rosie the Riveter, that meme of the girl doing this because she was building the bombs
in the factories during every girl on Halloween now dresses like that right yeah the issue that
these conservative women often bring up I'm I'm more like I don't know man like I'm not a woman
so I'm not gonna but like conservative women are very much anti-19th and liberal are pro it but
the majority of millennial women 70 are democrats
and they just vote for this stuff whether there's policy that makes sense anyway so if only women
voted you'd have democrat presidents and if only men voted you'd have republican presidents so the
main issue i think is not so much whether it's an issue of women voting and women have a right
to vote it's an issue of men and women statistically vote in different ways that rip the country apart.
Totally. Well, right now it's abortion is the biggest thing for women that are my age, right?
Like, yeah, but I don't I think that's actually a good example of women don't vote for things.
They vote for feelings. And so like, the fact that it could be abortion today or anything
else tomorrow, the fact that the woke left seemingly has no cohesive ideology and they vote for whatever
this stuff is regardless, I think, is an element of gender-based voting biases.
I was just checking it out and it's 1912.
What is it?
1920 is when it was ratified.
It's right around when radio picked up.
Again, how this technology is changing us as a species.
Like radio gave us the opportunity to listen to ourselves from a distance,
like literally listen to yourself.
It was the first time in history you could record with a phonograph really.
Well, recording happened a long time ago.
The phonograph I think was the first instance of it.
Thomas Edison, it's pretty interesting watching him build that thing.
He built it on a roll of paper and it's like these different rivets on the paper
and then it would like pluck the thing and then recreate the sound of the stitching.
That's pretty
fascinating but i think i mean i think it's like women are maybe more psychological than men men
are more like brute like animalistic women are subject oriented men are object oriented and then
so the sub being able to witness ourselves through radio allowed women to become much more you know
socially cognizant perhaps which is why this all kicked off in the early 1900s
late 1878s when it started i think i don't i understand that that or i do agree that you know
radio did have a big effect on society but i don't think that i think that the seeds were planted
um before radio became normal because when the radio became ubiquitous right in what the 30s was it
let's find out i know tesla was working on it in the early 1900s
and by ubiquitous i mean you know where like most most people had a radio in their home or something
it was invented in 1890s uh looking to see how when it became like everyone has a radio kind of
thing yeah i mean so yeah i mean like i said i think that i think that radio and and stuff like I'll look and see when it became like everyone has a radio kind of thing. Yeah.
So, yeah.
I mean, like I said, I think that radio and stuff like that did have an effect.
But the ideas tend to come from philosophers and stuff like that.
So the ideas that of human beings being equal, those ideas had been set into motion 100 years before the radio.
I disagree. I agree with ian
um there's a lot of philosophies there's a lot of ideas they don't all rise to the top they don't
all become prominent i think happens with radio is you've got a radio station and they're thinking
like how many listeners can we get to this radio station this new thing and so they start making
radio broadcasts and they're like hey hey hey guy, hey, hey, guy, you did some broadcast about Catholicism and the Protestants are pissed. Don't do that. We're losing money. And they went, whoa, really?
And so if you're trying to maximize the size of your audience, you are heading towards a
woke direction has nothing to do with literature or philosophy. All that matters is how can we
offend the least amount of people? So if you look at what's happening today with the further
expansion of the flow of information, the issue quite simply conservatives don't do anything liberals do
so a business is looking at netflix and there's like some story right now what was it uh oh yeah
we got some story we can talk about i don't know if i've pulled up oh i do actually have it right
here let's pull this up so this is from the federalist. Kellogg pledged $91 million to racial division while slashing employee benefits.
How psychotic is that?
Well, what happened was apparently activists started complaining that, you know, Snap, Crackle, and Pop or whatever are white.
And so the business sits down and they say, listen, what's happening?
Well, we got a thousand emails from these angry liberals complaining about white
characters on our cereal boxes okay what are conservatives saying nothing they don't care
well okay then we need to give the squeaky wheel the grease when every company does that over a
hundred years keeps giving the squeaky wheel the grease or trying to just minimize anger it is going
to skew in the direction we are seeing it skew, regardless of what anyone writes about it.
Do you think that corporations are inherently woke, having their primary motive be profit?
Yes.
It's simple.
You've got a million people in a city, and Facebook says, we want one million members
to join Facebook.
Well, uh-oh, 200,000 are refusing because Trump's on the platform.
Trump supporters aren't saying anything. They don't care. All right, we'll ban Trump then. Well, now weoh, 200,000 are refusing because there's Trump's on the platform. Trump supporters aren't saying anything.
They don't care.
All right, we'll ban Trump then.
Well, now we lost 3,000.
We lost 3,000.
We made 200,000.
So we're good.
That's basically what's happening.
They don't think the negative concept, it's cost benefit analysis.
If the cost of banning Trump is greater than the cost of not banning him, they wouldn't
do it.
But because they know, look, people are quitting.
Look at Will Wheaton. He's like, I'll quit Twitter unless you ban Alex Jones. And then Twitter's
like, oh, what do we do? We're getting all these liberals to quit. Oh, geez. Oh, boy. We got to do
something. And then, of course, all social media bans Alex Jones because the collective left
threatened and the collective left does typically follow through on this stuff. I kind of agree that prioritizing profit
and larger audiences is a bit,
leads you towards like, you know,
capitulating to whatever it is of the day.
But then what about ESG?
Because they've essentially said,
we don't care how many people are here anymore.
We want this thing to happen.
So we're going to spend your money on it.
Damn be the consequences.
Damn be the losses.
It's the same thing.
It's they get complaints on the left and no one on the right says anything.
People on the right are like, well, I'm scared I'll lose my job.
It's like, well, there you go.
You lost.
That indicates that corporations being having a woke mindset of profit over everything else will lead them to a place where they eventually do whatever the mob tells them to do.
Yes.
Yes.
They become so accustomed to doing what the mob wants for profit
that they continue to do what the mob wants,
even if it's unprofitable.
Until it implodes.
But what about like what's happening in Silicon Valley?
Like all these tech companies laying off people.
You have to believe that some of them
are like the diversity, equity, and inclusion folks, right?
Oh yeah, yep.
Microsoft just laid off
its artificial intelligence ethics team
or something like that.
That was funny.
That was hilarious as they're unleashing chat GPT-4 is given it you see the guy he made a twitter thread about
giving it money yeah he's like i he's like i set a budget and told it to make money for me
and then it worked and he's like he's mostly getting investors right now but like he's doing
whatever chat tells him to do but anyway these companies these companies are, they are soulless entities that just do
whatever they think will maximize their profits. And if the left will threaten a boycott and follow
through, then you have to do what the left says. You may lose 10% of your audience because they're
conservative, but you'd lose 30% of your audience because every liberal would quit and conservatives
don't care. And it stresses out the employees when people complain which is another cost to your company we are seeing netflix recoil because the woke stuff actually caused a
massive backlash because they reach i think what happened is they reached the point where they
chased the dragon too far and now the weird crackpot you know interracial gay movies they're
making are causing people to cancel because they don't want to watch it and now netflix is like
whoa whoa we're actually losing money so the cost risk analysis has reached the tipping point
there was a movie on um shutter called the spiral and uh the stupidest movie i've ever seen it's
about an interracial gay couple with an adopted daughter they move next to a white waspy family
and uh spoiler alert everybody because i doubt you're gonna watch it anyway the white waspy
family are uh immortal because they kill marginalized people to like give themselves immortality and i'm just like
this is what happens this is your brain on drugs right these companies are like look
these what the left is they're yelling in our ears they're demanding this stuff we got to give
the audience what the audience wants then they make it and they're like hey wait a minute we
only got like a hundred thousand views on this movie that costs, you know, 5 million bucks.
What happened?
It's like, hey, those loud people, they don't actually have money and they don't care.
And they don't represent regular Americans.
So you make a movie like that.
Look at Top Gun.
I mean, Top Gun, we talked about the other night.
Good old American Air Force, force flying jets military recruitment you
know everyone on the beach all physically fit playing volleyball that made a billion dollars
so i think they're going to slowly start realizing they've lost their minds that's a good thing i was
thinking of the metaphor of flying too close to the sun while you're saying they chase the dragon
too far like the idea that what the mob said is what the mob wants is not true. The mob can twist and shit can come out of their mouth that's not.
Well, the issue is when you've got an angry mob in front of your door and it's 500 people, you're like, I don't want them to burn down my store, so I'll just say whatever they want to hear.
But that 500 does not represent the 5 million who live in your city who actually service your business.
So they're giving in to psychopaths and it's just, eventually it's going to destroy itself.
That's the only thing I think could happen.
Yeah, melts the wings.
Maybe it's not a perfect metaphor.
That Icarus story, you guys know Icarus?
He flew too close to the sun,
and he was flying with wax wings,
and then he got too, it was, you know,
if the sun's warm, why not get closer to it?
His dad was like, hey, you know,
don't fly too high because the sun will melt your wings,
which is wrong because at a certain height, it's going to be colder in the atmosphere, which would keep his wings.
That's a good point.
Yeah.
So I'm sitting here like, I think the dad lied about what happened.
You think that's propaganda to keep people on the ground?
Yes.
Wow.
They've been doing it for billions of years.
It was like, I am sick of this little shit.
Billions of you.
Different planets and stuff.
Yeah, propaganda is not a new thing.
Yeah, make sure you don't fly too close to the sun.
I mean, they tell us there were angels that they had wings and they could fly.
I think they had hang gliders, realistically.
Like, they figured out how to glide.
And they would just tell people, yeah, we have wings.
Don't even try it.
Like, whatever you think you can do, you can't.
You're a subservient.
Weren't angels described as, like, these big things with all these eyes and, like, wings in a wheel shape that would spin and like float through the sky or whatever flying machines crazy machines with lights on
them and stuff i have no idea i have no i was reading this uh report that said scientists are
increasingly thinking that time is cyclical and that means like we go forward far enough and then
we go back and so there is no dawn of time there's only like human after a hundred thousand years
humans have wiped themselves out.
And the planet shifts to the point where it destroys everything on it.
Then goes back to the beginning.
And humans reemerge.
And we're trapped in this cycle over and over again forever.
Sounds like the plot of Dark on Netflix.
Have you ever seen that?
No.
I think that movie's in German, right?
Yeah, it's three seasons.
It's in German.
But it sounds just like Dark.
It's a big cycle and everything that happens.
I don't Spock and C. Doig, so I didn't Spock. It's the cause and effect of everything else.
You can,
you know,
English subtitles.
I watched this as zombie movie today.
What,
what is it called?
I don't know.
It's,
it's a South Korean zombie movie.
It's actually pretty good on Netflix.
Yeah.
It was on Netflix.
Oh man.
We did an episode of pop culture crisis earlier.
That was awesome.
If you guys haven't seen it,
you're gonna have to check that out after the show.
It's just so me and Dane,
dude,
Dane font crushing it.
And Mary and Brett, of course.
Of course.
Okay.
I don't think I had anything else about God unless you guys want to talk about the helixing nature of the universe and the twisting singularity that we're about to experience in 70 billion years.
What was that, Seamus?
That's basically today.
What was that, Seamus?
What?
Yeah, exactly.
Time is irrelevant.
That's actually the funniest thing you've ever said. You should write that down. I'm glad he's here. I'm writing it down. Yeah, write that down. That was a good one, Seamus? What? Yeah, exactly. Time is irrelevant. That's actually the funniest thing you've ever said.
You should write that down.
I'm glad he's here.
I'm writing it down.
Yeah, write that down.
That was a good one, Seamus.
I brought up this twisting universe.
They said the universe is expanding, and this is the theory up until last week or something,
that it eventually will go so far away that it goes on forever.
I don't buy it.
I like the cyclical thing a lot better, that it's twisting around like coming back on itself and experiencing the singularity and the big bang every time it goes through the center.
And the reason that it looks like it's shifting red, which indicates that it's getting further away, is actually because of the frequency.
The wavelength itself is bending as it twists around.
So it's an optical illusion.
It wasn't trained to Busan, although I did see that and I liked it.
It's called um alive
hashtag alive yeah i watched that today it was pretty good he's like locked in his house and
they're in this dense urban environment where all the zombies are you know i don't want to
spoil the movie i liked it i liked it it's dubbed though you know hey let's talk about joe biden we
got this story from the new york post biden jokes he's really not Irish because he's sober, doesn't have relatives in jail.
I'm sorry, guys.
I got to say it based like this was a funny racist joke made by Joe Biden.
You know what I mean?
I remember asking Seamus if it was racist to make jokes about Irish people.
And he said, yes.
What was that, Seamus?
You actually, you don't like the jokes.
You think it's derogatory? On St. Patrick's on st patrick's day of all what well come on that's a little harsh isn't it yeah anyway we were what we were saying i'm irish so i'm allowed to
make these jokes is anybody else irish in here yeah i am yeah i am as well phil are you irish
no i am not no jenny you're not irish jewish oh man so there's three three people who are part
irish so we're allowed to make...
If you guys make any jokes, then we'll kick you out.
I honestly think it's a hilarious joke that Joe Biden made.
It's funny.
I know.
It's funny.
Like, he's...
Wow.
That's shockingly ethnically offensive.
It sounds like a Trump line.
I know, right?
Like, if you replaced Irish with black and he was a...
Like, Barack Obama made a joke about it being black.
He's like, because I don't eat this and have like it would be the most offense.
I mean, even for a black dude to say it would be so dangerous.
No, but you're right.
Like saying saying a certain ethnicity is, you know, only real if they're drunk and in jail.
It's horrible.
What a stereotype.
I know it's funny.
But he's Irish, so he's allowed to say it, right?
Good for you, Joe.
Is that how it works?
Yes.
I mean, I'm...
How are you guys doing?
I'm chilling.
I'm not used to being the butt of jokes, like, racially.
So I don't know how sensitive, what you should do about racially insensitive jokes.
I've never really been that bothered by them.
You should probably just not make them.
It's a safe bet.
And just let other people make them.
Don't be like, hey. mean look i mean anytime you're i personally i'm not gonna police someone else like i'm not gonna be like man you shouldn't say this or you shouldn't say that like
if someone says something offensive i'm gonna be like you know i'm gonna you know do that the the
whole homer simpson fading back into the uh the the hedge behind him you know dave chappelle did
a bit on one of his comedy specials where he squinted his eyes met his mouth and then made
like offensive asian stereotypes and i laughed my ass off at it yeah and then i guess what happens
is if the woke people are like that was offensive and i say something like you're correct they'll go
well because you're asian you understand but if i say actually my family's part asian we found
that fun hilarious they'll say well you've internalized your white supremacy or something.
You're white.
That's exactly how I feel because he makes jokes against Jews and then the Jewish community
like freaks out and you're like, no, calm down.
Like then every time it's like Boy Who Cried Wolf.
It's like every time you like freak out, it's something small.
And then when something really big happens, it's going to be like, oh, whatever.
Well, Trump derangement syndrome's real yeah like sam harris that that guy's brain is just gone you know he was like he did that podcast with lex fridman and he's like it's it's you
who have trump derangement syndrome if you support trump and it's like i saw um who was it uh joe
walsh i think it was yeah he's a clown said something like, why don't you want to be woke?
And then I'm just like, dude, you I was like, bro, because you're in a cult.
These people are like, if you disagree with me, you love Trump.
And I'm like, it was really funny when Dave Smith, who hopefully announces he's running
for the for the for president for the presidency as a libertarian.
He was on the show and they were like, use Trump supporters.
And he's like, I'm a libertarian.
It's like, I hate Trump.
I don't like the guy.
Like, why are you assuming?
Because they're in a cult.
Their brains are in a cult.
They live in a world
where there's only
Trump or no Trump.
And if you disagree with them
because Biden's bad,
then you must love Trump.
Even if you're actively
smack talking Trump,
they just,
it's a cult, man.
I wonder what cult I'm in.
I feel like everybody's in a cult.
Graphene.
The graphene cult?
Yeah,
you won't let it go, man.
The Mars cult?
Some kind of earth worship or something like that, probably.
The Gaia?
Probably something along those lines.
The cult of the eminent Gaia?
Yeah.
Something earthy, crunchy.
I do believe that consciousness is like a magnetic field.
Yeah, it's earthy.
If other people start to believe.
You know, when I started making YouTube videos, it was a long time ago.
I shoot granola.
You do?
No. Oh, okay, good uh it got very culty like like internet video produces cults of personality where you become obsessed or in love with the person you watch and you
subscribe to them and you pay them and like you become you support them and you follow them and
it's like it can if you bear your soul to that it can become very like culty like weirdly culty
nice thing what you do is it's a business for you you keep it very business oriented it's very professional i mean that's true
for any famous person you know yes like yeah you've got all these celebrities who are doing
only fans they're not doing porn though they're just posting bikini photos or whatever and they're
making millions in like days when you get emotional and then they start to get attached to that
you'll notice they scream your name and they don't even care what you're talking about.
That's when it's like, this is culty.
I don't like that.
Can I pretend I'm offended at Joe Biden's Irish comments and like impeach him for it or something?
Oh, geez.
That was – that's like – he said the N-word for Irish people right there.
Yeah, it was violent.
He attacked me i think i'm gonna need uh i'm gonna need him to be impeached jim jordan or
matt gates if uh you could just maybe come in this weekend and file those impeachment papers
this is like getting dealt a trump card an ace of spades when you're playing spades and you're
holy i get to hold this in my hand now and this is gonna guarantee i don't lose every hand no
they don't care because he's indicating that it's okay to make racist jokes which it is
we it's not It's free speech.
You're allowed to do that.
So now you need a video
of a little kid
who's like watching
and going,
ha ha ha,
Irish people are dumb
and saying stuff like that.
They're like,
look what Joe Biden
has done to these children.
That's the downside
of racist jokes,
but yeah, that's life.
You need strong parents
to tell kids
you're going to hear
and see this stuff.
I guess.
Yeah, but if you're
white passing,
you can be racist. Yeah, if you're Irish but you pass for'm not if you're white passing it you can be racist yeah if you're irish but you
pass for white then you're okay because no one will know that you're drunk or in jail irish people
are not white they i guess i mean luke's luke's got blonde hair and blue eyes and they don't
he's a slob he's not white you know a man i i, it doesn't it shouldn't surprise anyone that Joe Biden said something like that.
It's it's not offensive to, I mean, anyone really.
I mean, for the most part, most people just are going to be like, whatever.
I don't I don't imagine there's going to be a significant constituency of Irish people that are going to actually be up in arms about it.
I mean, I just I just don't don't imagine that they're going to have anything to say about it.
So it's going to go away and whatever.
And you should expect something brainless to come out of Joe Biden's mouth
because, you know, by noontime he's out of it.
Joe Biden could actually make disparaging comments about, like, black people
and they wouldn't care.
They would immediately respond
with well donald trump called mexicans rapists or whatever so you have nowhere you have no room
to talk or whatever and you're going to be like he never said that dude but they don't care it is
it is it is a situation you know the the hierarchy of of acceptable people and unacceptable people
so there is that but again it's just a matter of joe biden is like
they're they're just gonna ignore whatever he says for two reasons one he's the the he's the
president and he's on the left ostensibly and two because they make excuses for him because he's got
tapioca for brains right i mean yeah if he like if they really were to
respond to this they'd say oh well old joe's got brain issues so we forgive him and it's like oh
now he's got brain issues and and it's fine i mean obviously that you know it was vote for joe
biden everyone knew he was a a mess two years ago and shamus and i are uh starting a non-profit to
advocate for the rights of irish people it's called People Organizing Together Against True Oppression.
I'm going to wait for people in the audience to put that one together.
Yeah, write that down.
It'll make more sense.
There's actually a bit we wrote for Castle Castle
because I was watching Leprechaun one day.
This is a true story.
And there's a scene in Leprechaun where the Leprechaun bites a guy
and then he starts turning Irish.
I'm not even kidding.
He literally starts turning into an Irish guy. He he's like he goes to he's like a normal guy and
he gets bitten and then he i love those movies he goes to a restaurant and he's like i'll have
the mashed potatoes the french fries the waffle fries potato fries the tater tots and then he's
just got nothing but potato and he's like eating it and then this is a true story seamus walks in
the living room and he's like what's up
buddy what are you watching and then he turns and looks at the tv and he goes what the he was like
yo this is the most racist thing i've ever seen and i was like yeah it's leprechaun and he was
like is he just stuffing potatoes and i'm like yeah he's eating potatoes and he was like oh my
god that's then we wrote a bit about people organizing together against true oppression potato in case you haven't figured it out yet is it in in regards to the way that critical
theorists view society is it only racist if you make fun of a marginalized community or is it
is it still racist if you make fun of a non-marginalized community but it's okay that
it's racist it's not so according to the left it's not racist if you're punching up. Yeah.
Racism is prejudice plus power can only be applied to those who are weaker than you.
So if a white homeless guy is laying on the ground with no teeth and he's and he's shivering in the cold and then, you know, a marginalized person walks by him and stumbles on him and the white homeless guy says, hey, don't you stumble on me?
They're gonna be like, whoa, that was racist.
Like, how dare you?
Like, because he's white.
Then it doesn't matter that he's dying it would make people try to become victims and marginalized so that they can protect themselves from the racist jokes that's the that's the standard
behavior now people do it all the time they constantly are using uh victimhood or whatever to
as insulation or whatever where's the irish reparations? We're talking about San Francisco
and they're saying if you identify as black,
you qualify.
If you live there and you identify as black.
What about Irish need not apply?
It's the McDonald's large fry is their reparations.
The discrimination in lending against Irish people.
I think Irish people should get reparations.
The government should give me your money. The Irish died in droves trying to do the uh erie canal you know
they that was slave labor that's right so that's exactly right is it because the british people
have suffered and have been oppressed historically and you know like is it i should get money from
the government for free is it left over by the way propaganda british propaganda because they
hated the irish because they were like island island barbarians that wouldn't capitulate to the empire well the irish and the british have always
had uh issues with each other uh there there's a lot of protestant and catholic animosity involved
in that um i don't know the details i'm not interested in the politics on the uh those
little islands i don't think they're actually barbarians.
They come from barbarian tribes or whatever you want to call them.
They're barbarians.
Tribes back in the day.
We got to get serious, you guys.
We have this story from NBC News.
Law enforcement agencies are prepping for a possible Trump indictment as early as next week.
I've actually seen rumors that they're going to try and perp walk Trump next week.
I mean, I'm really excited because it means I'll have a video to make that will get a million views so you know
this is always always good news for me when they talk about arresting a guy unjustly you know oh
geez look at this unjust behavior from joe biden for 800,000th time what it what are the what are
the charges that they're expecting discussing potential security hush money payment to stormy
daniels they're good that's all they could get against him they're gonna perp walk a former president
over that dude wow they're scared of trump man yeah they are and maybe they so i don't know if
you guys watch the culture war podcast with uh sovereign bra but he was talking about how people
believe trump is the antichrist this is fascinating i. I think that it's based in, it could be, you could argue this.
This is, I didn't see the show yet.
This is Chase.
I don't think you can literally argue it.
I think people will find things about anybody to stick to the, you know, prophecy or whatever.
And so they just look at Trump who's got a storied life and then try and apply prophecy to wherever they can.
And so basically, like, you could probably apply prophecy to wherever they can and so basically like you could probably
apply revelation to phil in some way you know if you if you find enough out about him you can be
like did you know that it was six months six days and six hours after he was born that there was an
eclipse or something people go whoa it's like you could find that number anywhere and then play a
songs backwards yep oh god that's what you really hear were you saying i think jenny and there's
going to be a song where it's just like you're not really saying anything backwards but people
are going to be adamant you're saying you know i am the antichrist my mom my mom was convinced
that uh judas priest was telling people to kill himself in the 80s she was that was one band
that she was not cool with me listening to.
I had like Iron Maiden.
I was like super,
I was hiding Iron Maiden records
because if she saw
the number of the Beast,
she saw that record,
it was over.
Those were going out too,
but she was,
she,
I couldn't stop her
from getting the
Jesus Priest record.
This is some of the greatest stuff.
Donnie Darkened.
Donald Trump is the chosen antichrist.
They have been foreshadowing this for centuries here is the proof read pin thread before interacting with my profile
yo this is so funny he says i've been saying this saying for a while that satan's plan has
always been about destruction and rebirth order out of chaos i believe that the true beast kingdom
will be the one that humanity will fight for rather than against. Like, I agree with that. Like, the woke people are fighting
for the complete destruction. Like, they, I do not think Trump is the Antichrist. In fact,
I think he's the resistance too. If anything, if I was gonna make an argument, Klaus Schwab
probably makes better sense. But I guess the issue is the Antichrist is supposed to be a
charismatic leader with like military prowess or something. Why is he always American? The Antichrist is always an American person.
Who did they think the Antichrist was
based on Nostradamus?
Was it Saddam?
I do not know.
Mavis or whatever?
I feel like they moved that around.
They were like,
oh, it's Saddam for whoever was
the most recent bad guy.
I feel like there's been multiple people
making arguments that person
x or y is the antichrist oh yeah yeah and mabus when i think an alleged predecessor to the third
antichrist when i think of christ i think of energy like they called jesus of nazareth after
he was gone or maybe during his life they started calling him the christ because he possessed that
energy that it means anointed.
It means to be Christ is to be anointed by God.
The anointed one, I think.
Yeah.
So the anti-Christ is the anti-anointed.
And that doesn't have to be one individual.
It could be Joel Osteen. It could be people that are betraying the faith by making money off of it.
And it's just erupting in a bunch of people at once.
Just like the return of Christ is going to erupt in a bunch of people at once.
Yo, I just got to say this.
Donald Trump means Herald of the World Ruler.
Herald of the World Ruler?
So that's my generous interpretation.
Donald is Scottish Gaelic for world ruler
and Trump references the trumpet sound
of heralding in something, the trumpet blast.
So my argument was when we were reading about Ingersoll Lockwood books from the 1800s that predicted like Barron Trump or whatever, I'm like Barron's the real guy.
Because his name is Barron.
Like if there was going to be a supervillain, it wouldn't be the guy who heralds the world ruler.
It would be the Barron.
The sound.
And have you seen him?
He's like eight feet tall yeah and i i
you know i you don't want to see him when he's angry because he gets bigger hey man he's been
quiet and he does look like that's the thing you don't want to abuse people like andrew tate
sitting in prison he's going to come out radical more radical than before that's the problem with
people insulting donald trump all day all day that's hurting baron that's making him crazy
in a way and if he does end up getting power with that Trump name
and he's twisted because of the way he was abused
as a kid because of his association with his dad,
that's not good.
Let me ask you guys, though.
There's like an element of excitement
to Donald Trump being the Antichrist.
And you all know it.
Everyone agrees, right?
Like Trump rises up and he's floating through the air
and he's like levitating and he's like,
his eyes start glowing and then he fires a lightning blast and like destroys a building and you're like what does
this have to do with the prophecy or whatever but you know like there's a there's an element of
excitement to great historical change and historical moments where i think a lot of people i'm being
i'm only half kidding actually a lot of people are looking for purpose desperately and if donald
trump did turned out to be some prophesied world leader be it the antichrist or the one who stops him or whatever you want to call it like people are
desperate for some kind of great great war of our generation i feel like that's one of the
things that motivates a lot of people that are um and anarchists on the left i don't feel like
it's so much anarchists on the right but the anarchists on the left. I don't feel like it's so much anarchists on the right, but the anarchists on the left are very much.
It seems to me that they have a,
the desire to kind of tear the system down,
like tear everything down because they believe the system is unjust.
And they believe that any other system that comes in its place is going to be
better,
which is probably the opposite of true.
Like we probably have about
the best system that we can kind of get get away with i gotta play this video and kiss here we go
i hadn't brought you in by now oh heavens you would have died she stroked his pretty skin again again and kissed him and held him tight. But instead of saying thank you, that snake gave her
a vicious bite. Take me in, oh tender woman. Take me in for heaven's sake take me in Oh tender woman sighed the vicious sake
whoa I have saved you cried the woman and you've bitten me heavens why you
know your bite is poisonous and now I'm going to die. Oh, shut up, silly woman.
Reptile with a grin.
You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in.
So the argument is he's saying Trump is confessing to like all the people around him that, oh, what's I'm just full.
Sorry, my purse. purse oh they're arguing
that trump is outright telling you he's the snake or whatever i've got to say i do not think he is
the antichrist i'm reading about a little bit the antichrist apparently is an imposter is like
purporting to be the second coming or christ that's why i think of these pastors that have
these mega churches like joel osteen like he's telling people that he's a vessel of god yeah
but the antichrist is supposed to have military prowess charisma a special look about
him you know what i mean and and and and besides like the the the antichrist is supposed to usher
in the mark of the beast which is something that affects all people that bars you from buying or
trading unless you bear the mark and it's not like donald trump executed any kind of program like
that yeah like he didn't do warp speed yeah he did do warp speed yeah he did do oh yeah that's buying or trading unless you bear the mark. And it's not like Donald Trump executed any kind of program like that.
Yeah, he didn't do warp speed.
He did do warp speed.
Yeah, he did.
Oh, yeah, that's right.
He did do it.
He did do that.
That's the joke.
I tried to make it funny.
Was it you that were saying that before the show, Jenny?
Well, he did all of that.
He did Operation War Speed. He did 15 Days to Slow the Spread or whatever.
He was bringing in Fauci.
He is that person.
So maybe I, in 2024,
that's going to be maybe something that DeSantis
or whoever it is can go after him for.
Because people are upset about that,
certainly in his base.
Not only are people upset about that,
but he has done nothing to walk it back
because he's Donald Trump.
And everything that he does,
he never walks anything back. This is my favorite. He's just going to everything that he does he it's it's all he doesn't walk he
never walks anything back this is my favorite he's just gonna be like oh it's fine look donald
trump's famous 666 hand sign oh my god dude they this is trump derangement syndrome is real
it is absolutely real he makes people crazy man he does man it's both manufactured and
organic like obviously the military industrial the liberal i don't want to blame the military he makes people crazy he does man it's both manufactured and organic
like obviously
the military
the liberal
I don't want to blame
the military industrial complex anymore
I'm done doing that
Lockheed Martin's doing its job
it's prevented World War III
they're building the weapons
we have used
to protect the world
alright I'm going to say it
the better or worse
it's going to be 20 years from now
and Ian is going to be
sitting on a throne of skulls
it's the economics
they're going to be like
it was Ian
I'm not the antichrist
I promise what it's the economic system that's the real threat uh these
these weapons manufacturers are doing weapons manufacturers do they always have it's the
economic system a liberal economic order that's the problem and that's the thing that's seeded
doubt about this guy they didn't like this guy because he was throwing a wrench into the
transition into the new world order what if like we're all laughing but ian actually does become
the vice president under trump? I would do it.
I have to do it.
Because he was begging Cash.
He was like, I've got to be the VP.
And Cash was like, what are you doing?
Cash wants you.
I was like, I'll do it.
I'll do it.
Cash was telling me to be VP.
I was like, why are you joking?
That's not even funny.
I will pay extra in taxes so that way the Secret Service is extra well-funded to protect
the life of Donald Trump should Ian be the vice president.
Dude, what if me and Donald Trump were the Christ and and the antichrist because they're supposed to oppose each other
and i would just be like no no you're saying you're the bad guy i would i would just be his
opposite i'm not gonna let him steamroll people and be cruel i will not let that happen but if i
was just fixing things what if ian i mean isn't that how it was like now after the fact how trump
views mike pence like isn't it that kind of
you're saying that pence is the antichrist no i mean in his view they're kind of at odds right
yeah after is nothing he's nobody yeah pence didn't really i never saw him push back against
them i mean i wouldn't do it in public that would be demeaning i mean i would love to sit with
donald as president vice president and do a talk show where we just go at each other about ideas
i think that'd be so hot i think what would happen if like the antichrist actually did show up is that ian's
the kind of guy who would go around saying that he was the opposition of the antichrist but he
would just be ian you know like people would be like okay yes debase make uncertain that's how
you subvert the new world order man i guess so anyway they're gonna arrest the guy you think
they will?
Yeah, I do.
I was reading a thread.
I think, I can't remember who posted it,
Jenna Ellis maybe or Emerald Robinson.
Somebody said that the goal is to drain the war chest,
to take away any funding he might have for a presidential run.
They can't stop him,
but they can rip his funds away.
And as the incumbent or as a former president,
it's a different race.
When he was running the first time,
he didn't spend a whole lot of money.
He just used natural press.
But now that may not work again.
He's going to need to do standard press buys, and they're going to try and rip that from him.
I'm excited for political season because it's a very important time of every four years where we make ten times as much money because of all the ads that run on the content.
It's funny when people are like, I've got an ad for Bloomberg.
And I'm like, do you like him now?
And they're like, no.
And I'm like, so he gave me free money.
How about that?
I'll tell you, right?
Yeah.
I'm half kidding.
I mean, obviously ad rates skyrocket
for cultural commentary, politics, et cetera.
So it'll get wild.
And I think this may be the biggest.
Every four years since the dawn of social media,
it's been the biggest presidential expenditures.
So this time around, they're going to look.
They're already claiming Trump's the Antichrist.
You know, like imagine what's going to what's going to be happening.
People are going to are going to go insane.
If you thought 2020 was crazy, 2024 is going to be bonkers.
Like a deep fake of Donald being like, I am the second coming of Jesus Christ.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
What are you talking about? What are you talking about? What are you talking about? Let me play a video for you. All right. Let me play a video. Like a deep fake of Donald being like, I am the second coming of Jesus Christ. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
What are you talking about?
What are you talking about?
What are you talking about?
Let me play a video for you.
All right, let me play a video.
In this thread, they have a video.
I am the chosen one.
What?
I am the chosen one.
It's there already.
Oh, jeez.
Here you go.
So somebody, excuse me, somebody had to do it.
I am the chosen one.
Somebody had to do it.
So I'm taking on China so i'm taking on china i'm taking on china he's
basically saying for the past decades whatever no one has been standing up to china somebody had to
do it i guess it's me i am the chosen one i'm gonna be the one to do it and then the left went
nuts and they were like he's claiming he's the messiah and they're gonna do they're gonna claim
he's the antichrist seriously and and they're gonna have do it. They're going to claim he's the Antichrist. Seriously. And they're going to have conversations like, listen, man, like, I'm not saying I believe
all this stuff, but I don't even know what to do with that.
Like, if that actually happens.
Well, I mean, I want to vote for Dave, to be honest with you.
I'll always be back to.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Dave Smith sounds good.
Oh, I'm Vivek Ramaswamy all the way.
Really?
Yeah.
Unless unless someone can convince me of a better economic plan.
Are you familiar with his work, Vivek?aswamy all the way. Really? Yeah, unless someone can convince me of a better economic plan. Are you familiar with his work, Vivek?
Oh, yeah.
I've already predicted
what Trump's nickname for him is going to be.
I think it's going to be Ramaswampy.
Wow, that's a good one.
You should maybe advise the man.
Right now, like, Cash is watching
and he was like, that was good.
It's like, Trump, Trump, Ramaswampy.
Ooh, that's too good.
Yeah, because the DeSantis ones aren't so good
like i don't know the meatball that one's pretty good i feel like he might just be like not uh he
just be like not cash or something like that i love me not cash but like like when i hear meatball
i think you're probably right it doesn't work because it's not offensive it's not derogatory
calling him meatball ron just is so funny it doesn't make me not like
desantis is he italian no obviously desantis that sounds italian that's what's called a meatball
i don't know what that means it's just funny it's a slur it's an italian slur apparently people
really hate desantis right now like there's videos of them burning desantis flags trump's
reporters are like no desantis they're like burning he was explaining why he extended the
state of emergency in florida and they're like why'd you do itantis. He was explaining why he extended the state of emergency in Florida.
And they're like, why'd you do it for so long a year?
And he said he was explaining that he was actually able to divert funds easier and forced schools to stay open and force them to not mask and stuff because you could withhold funding as long as he was in a state of emergency.
If Ron was VP, he'd be a 10 out of 10 vice president.
If he's president, he's like a three out of 10.
Oh, yeah. out of 10 vice president if he's president he's like a three out of ten oh yeah even if i was like up to the last minute if i was running and like i was the guy that was going to be vp and desantis
wanted to do it i would step down for him that's that's very honorable i think he's a superior
governor at this step aside to let ron desantis be vice president yeah i think i think in terms
of the scale of presidentiality ron desantis is certainly on the scale he is presidential but
he's very very low relative to trump but in terms of VP, like that dude screams best VP.
You know what I mean?
Like Joe Biden's not even on any of these.
He's not presidential or vice presidential.
He's a bumbling daughter with a broken brain.
He looks like he's, he looks fragile and frail when he's walking around.
Looks?
Yeah.
But DeSantis doesn't have that same degree of X factor as Trump.
He's not an actor. Yeah. So it's very stodgy. As much as I like DeSantis doesn't have that same degree of X factor as Trump. He's not an actor.
Yeah, so it's very stodgy.
As much as I like DeSantis, you know.
I think he's a great governor.
I think he has great policies and everything.
He's just, he doesn't have that gravitas.
It was Glenn Beck.
He did an interview with Glenn Beck recently that was pretty good.
That's where he was talking about why he extended the state of emergency.
And it was very human.
You could tell.
He's like, hopefully he'll settle into it because I really like him i mean i like what he's done i don't know him
what was that oh did i just pull something i think that was seamus was that was that you
ghost of seamus seamus disconnected seamus okaglan that's actually a really good point
about trump that may be actually that may be one of the most profound things ever said
that's that wow that may actually convince men in the left to vote for the man that was really
you should write that down, James.
Yeah, that was a good one.
Yeah, I'm impressed.
What were we talking about?
I didn't mean it like that.
Yeah.
No.
I want to talk about, I want to talk to you, Jenny, a little bit about the border.
You guys are bound for a hard transition.
I'd like to transition into this.
You work on the border.
You've been with the Daily Caller.
You've been to the southern border
and the northern border.
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
What is the craziest thing you've seen?
Oh, gosh.
Well, I'll tell you that
on my northern border trip,
I didn't realize how many people
were coming both ways.
So what I did while I was down there
or up there
is I took a bunch of taxis
filled with people
from all over the world.
They just filled up. People just flocked to them at the airport at bus stops they just somehow find the
taxi it's the craziest thing so I was in a bus full of like Nigerians Romanians Saudis Pakistanis
Afghans like everyone Colombians and they were all going north and the the taxi would drop them off they would get out the
Canadian authorities would tell them you're crossing illegally if you decide to walk here
and they do and then obviously the same thing happens at the southern border and a lot of those
people had crossed the southern border and decided they want to go further north Eric Adams is busing
them to that area making it easier for them. And then you have people, of course, coming through the southern border.
And I've met so many people south of the southern border that are now, you know, in Baltimore,
that are in, you know, California, that are in D.C.
They're all over now.
And they're living some of them living pretty lavish lives.
Like, I would like to know how to live that way.
So you say people come up and they're moving to Canada.
They're emigrating to Canada. Oh oh yeah oh yeah and then some people are coming
the other way because if you're mexican for example and you cross the southern border into
the u.s you're going to be immediately expelled under title 42 which is like the covid policy
trump put in place if you fly to canada all you need is an electronic travel authorization not a visa so it's way easier you
pay like five us dollars basically you fly there you take a taxi right to the border and then you're
good you just cross so they fly into the united states from mexico and then they drive across to
canada they fly no they fly into canada and then they cross oh my gosh they cross out the board the border guards are just like wait stop no and then they just walk in don't like they're like hey they've already
crossed yeah well you can't tell people once they've crossed to go back uh like they're already
in the u.s at that point and so they cross and then they're taken into border patrol custody
a lot of them aren't it's you know you hear a lot about gotaways, people that evade Border Patrol.
They're evading up there way more than they're actually being encountered
because there's no wall.
There's no line of Border Patrol agents.
It's the largest, longest shared border in the world.
I was thinking as an aside about the yesterday we're talking about the French or the German
blitzkrieg into France during World War Two.
And France had this giant wall across the border, the German border called the Maginot
line.
They were like, there's no way the Germans can get through.
The Germans just went through Belgium.
So like the Chinese could just go through Canada.
There's no border defense up there.
They'll always find a way.
You find vessels
coming through san diego you find them coming through the coastal border in florida now a lot
more and they're coming from all over the world there too so they're finding any way they can
and it's pretty open so all those places essentially the the biggest driver still is
policy though the biggest driver of people coming to the u.s is u.s policy on
people that stay over their visas and policy about if you get here and claim asylum which i mean most
of the people that come come at least from the south if i understand correctly claiming asylum
is is like kind of ridiculous because they're supposed to claim at the first there's so many
people who do that fraudulently.
So for example,
Todd Bensman,
he's a researcher for the center of immigration studies.
He went to the Highlands in Guatemala and he found that all of these people
had sent their children over to the U S illegally.
They'd come here,
they had earned money and then they sent that money back so their families
could make mansions in Guatemala.
And then they would come back after. A lot of
that happens. Like I'll talk to the migrants when they get here, when they cross and you hear,
oh, we're coming for work, we're coming for work. Well, when Border Patrol shows up,
the story completely changes. Right. And of course, like not to discount, you know,
the horrific tragedy of poverty in the countries they're coming from. But when you talk about U.S. policy, for example, OK, the Biden administration says they're trying
to solve the root causes of immigration. Well, these people say, you know, absolutely not.
That's not happening. Who's these people are saying? Well, all these people who are you
talking about? All these migrants who are saying that I've like talked to them. I've asked them like when I was in Guatemala after they had crossed from Honduras.
I was like, well, the U.S. and specifically the vice president of the United States says they're solving these issues in your country.
Do you believe that's true?
And they said flat out no.
I had a friend in L.A.
I worked at a restaurant that there was a lot of illegal immigrants working at the restaurant in the kitchen getting paid with cash.
And one of my, he was a really good friend of mine. He was like,
man, I just sent so much money to my family in Mexico.
They're so rich right now. I just keep
sending them. U.S. dollars are worth so much
in my hometown. And then he just, he eventually
just peaced out. Untaxed.
They don't care about what's going on in their home country.
They want to come here. It's better. There's that
viral interview that
Vox did. I think it was Vox, where they asked one of the migrants coming in the caravan, why are
you coming?
And he said, I miss Buffalo Wild Wings.
It's like, yeah, Mexico City has Buffalo Wild Wings, too.
And I've been there.
And it's pretty legit.
But they're just making up excuses.
One guy was like, I miss my PlayStation.
And it's like, how do you already have a PlayStation 4 up in America when you're not an American
citizen?
And they're like, I was here.
I got deported.
Well, yeah.
And you know what?
I actually heard about some of the migrants that didn't plan to go to Canada but ended
up going when I was there.
They were like, there's racism in America.
So now, like, that's a new thing I'm hearing that, like, you know, that and, you know,
maybe they're being slighted at work because they're working under the table.
But that was another thing that I heard, that one, there's racism,
and then two, the threats that they had in their home countries
that they escaped, like this woman I met from Venezuela,
her toxic, abusive ex-partner
followed her into the U.S.
and abused her here.
So she had to escape.
She was claiming asylum, I guess, from the U.S., right?
Whoa. Are they, but they U.S., right? Whoa.
Are they, but they're illegally going to Canada as well.
Like if they get caught in Canada,
they just get sent back to the home country
or do they get sent back to the U.S.?
No, they'll be processed as asylum there or refugee status.
And the weird thing too,
is that they bring all their bags with them.
In the U.S., if you cross the border illegally,
they give you a Ziploc bag,
you dump everything else right at the border.
There, they're bringing duffel bags and suitcases.
And I don't know if it was real or not, but there was like a Louis Vuitton logo going on.
Does Canada have an open immigration policy where they want that?
Oh, yeah.
Justin Trudeau has absolutely put out an open call for more migrant workers. They don't have the labor force to sustain how many jobs are open right now in that country.
And now the U.S., because of that, I think is becoming a transit zone, is becoming what Mexico is right now.
And Mexico is pissed off at us right now.
Does Canada, does the policy that Canada has have anything to do with why Mexico's
pissed off at us? Is that what you're alluding to? No, no, no. I'm saying that the fact that,
you know, the U.S. policies opening the border for migrants coming here through Mexico,
you know, for example, right now you have a ton of migrants that are waiting in these shelters
in Mexico that are overflowing, people sleeping on the streets.
The Mexican authorities are really unhappy by that, right?
It's not good for their communities.
So are we going to become that?
And maybe that's what New York City has become because Eric Adams wants them out, right?
You think that there's any ethical value to deporting people to Canada that
come from Mexico,
that get caught illegally?
You have to have Canada's cooperation with that.
I mean,
or you could just get them a one way trip to the Yukon.
There's a lot of woods out there,
man.
A treaty,
a deportation treaty with Canada.
Cause I mean,
if they need immigration and we don't,
and they're coming here,
I mean,
I mean,
it's kind of strips the humanity of the individual
of what they want.
What we obviously should do is paint a road
on the side of a mountain that isn't real
so they all come and then they stop.
And they're like, whoa, wait a minute,
there's no actual path here.
And they get confused.
And that's how you keep them out like mugs money.
I mean, nothing keeps them out.
It's really crazy because even the elements, right?
It's snowy up there.
You don't know where you're going in some places.
There's not like landmarks.
You find like not only just footprints from shoes, but you find bare feet footprints, right?
Like people crossing in the snow, totally unprepared for the situation.
It's really weird.
It's really eerie.
You spend more time at the southern or the northern border?
Southern, yeah.
Like how many people, were you like watching people come across?
Oh, yeah.
I watched people come across.
I meet with local law enforcement.
I watched people cross onto rancher properties.
And then I actually spent time in Guatemala. I went into a detention center and I met with migrants that they had detained from all over the world that were bound for the U.S.
So like I met 16 Afghans there. They're actually all now in the U.S.
So even the policies down there to detain and send them back south to Honduras aren't working. Right.
People just come right back up.
I think I would have been one of those people
that just illegally went to the United States
because it's the best.
I don't care about the law.
Like in that case, I'm like, you know what?
We lawed people that came over illegally 100 years ago
and they had kids and made a bunch of money
and created businesses.
It's like, we were an illegal upstart country.
That was 100 years ago.
They weren't illegal though.
Well, I mean, not documented.
100 years ago was prior to the New Deal.
The reason we have issues with immigration is not particularly with the people coming to the United States.
That has been a normal thing for the entirety of the United States history.
People come to the U.S. The problem that we have, the reason that we have problems with immigration is the social services that we provide to our population and what the Democrats have started to provide to non-citizens.
There are places where non-citizens are are there, the people that pay taxes.
You dilute their political power.
And if it's illegal,'s political power is being diluted
and the government is not doing anything about it.
So the people that pay taxes to the government,
supposedly ostensibly to keep the government working
and to pay the politicians,
they're having their power taken away by politicians
who refuse to enforce the laws.
Let's talk about what's going on with the laws.
Got this tweet from Kyung La of CNN.
Got robbed again.
Jason Casey and I were at City Hall in San Francisco
to do an interview for CNN.
We had security to watch our rental car.
Thieves did this under four seconds.
Security stopped the jerks from stealing other bags,
but seriously, this is ridiculous.
Thanks, CNN.
I suppose when it starts happening to them,
all of a sudden, you you know now it's newsworthy
now it's just talking
about that happened to me
the first day I went
to San Francisco
parked the car
went in to look at
an apartment
came out
that's what I looked at
that's what I saw
because crime is legal
there
it is allowed
well they're trying
to make it
no longer a sanctuary city
because now they're
finally realizing right
they're realizing
silly woman
you knew damn well i was
a snake before you you gotta play that shut up that clown world thing that's silly woman shut
up silly woman michael malice uses it all the time it's one of my favorites oh god shut up
silly woman there's a clown world uh twitter page that i go to or i see from time to time clown
world's blowing up on Twitter. Seven hours ago.
It's like libs of TikTok for other issues. It's great because they show the clowniness all in one,
usually all in one image.
You don't have to search for it.
And seven hours ago, they posted a tweet from Hillary Ronan,
I guess a while ago.
Was this August of 2020 where she said,
I want to make it clear that I believe strongly
in defunding the police and reducing the number of officers on our force.
That's good.
How it started, how it's going.
And she's like, defund the police. And the next one, she's like,
we don't have enough police officers. We've been begging
for more foot feets.
Oh, shut up, lady. Foot feets.
People are evil. They've been begging for more foot feets.
Defund the police, but not like that.
She's in a panic state because of her
idiot policy. I've got a compromise. Defund the state? She doesn't even know what she's saying. She's in a panic state because of her idiot policy. I've got a compromise.
Defund the state.
I mean...
Well, that includes the police,
but we get to get rid of these people too.
I am romantic for anarchism.
But you like police?
You appreciate police?
I'm romantic.
I consider myself romantic for anarchism
because I like the idea.
I think that if anarchism because I like the idea. I think that if anarchy,
anarchism was possible,
I think that it would be,
I'm not,
I don't know that it,
that I don't think it's possible.
Yeah.
I think that the,
the foundational government that we had in the,
like when we started was probably the most libertarian government or
libertarian society ever exist that has existed.
And so I'm, you know, for practical purposes, if someone calls me a constitutionalist,
I'm not going to argue because I think that, you know, the powers given to the government
outlined in the Constitution were okay, but the government, the Constitution was insufficient
to actually restrain the government, obviously, because we have the largest government, you
know, in human history.
So, but I do, I'm romantic for obviously, because we have the largest government in human history.
But I'm romantic for anarchism because I love the idea.
I just don't think that it actually pans out.
Yeah, it doesn't have to be black and white.
Usually, rarely is it ever with social philosophy.
It's a little bit of anarchism here,
a little bit of socialism there,
and you create a society that's like an amalgam.
Yeah, part of the reason why I don't call myself
a pure anarchist is because I know that it's just begging
for people on Twitter to give me
help. Who will build the roads?
Fuck the roads. I hate them.
My favorite response is
there were roads before there was a government.
We could build roads that
last 150 years and then we wouldn't have to fund them anymore.
Why would we build roads?
If we get rid of the government, the first thing that's going away
is the roads. I know.
Roads are actually the problem.
Off-road.
If there were no roads, there'd be no crime.
You know why?
Because criminals couldn't get anywhere.
That's right!
You can't steal when you can't get away!
You see?
That proves it.
And everyone has to ride horses.
You know?
Through the woods.
I mean, wherever.
Man, could you imagine life without roads?
Back in the day?
Driving through the hills? woods i mean wherever man could you imagine life without roads back in the day there's there's that
scene in 1923 where harrison ford that him and the crew they ride up on horses into the city
and then he looks around he's like where's the hitching post and they're like we took it out
for more parking spaces and he's like what like tie the horses to a tree yeah because they used
to have hitching posts because everybody would ride a horse. Ride a horse to town. Yeah, now it's cars. Now it's cars.
Das Auto.
Yeah, man.
The future's going to be wild.
Yeah, I know.
I was thinking about that today.
So what's...
Okay, look at this chat GPT crap.
Stuff is happening so fast right now.
You can type in with this...
What is it?
GPT4, I think.
Or there's like mid-journey.
There's all these like visual creation stuff.
Yeah, mid-journey.
Crazy.
And it looks photorealistic at times.
It can show you like a woman go from age eight to age 80 in like a transitional state of just like you just type it in and imagine we're only a few
years out to full automation of animation meaning if they can make photorealistic people we are a
few years away from typing in animate ian crossland explaining graphene and it will render you in and
you'll be like let me explain graphene you and it will it will get the script from the internet it
will transcribe everything you've ever said and it will create you and you
will wake up one day seeing a viral video of yourself explaining graphene it'll be at the
u.n you'll be like that's not me that's not me and you'll like run in your bathrobe and they'll
be like get this crazy guy no look look and they'll be like get out of here you crazy old
man and they're gonna hit you it wasn't me and what does he even talk it'll be like 80 years
later and i'll still be screaming it wasn't me indistinguishable videos of donald trump declaring himself
the antichrist or something i just i'm having a hard time visualizing is going to be people
understand 2020 so look we're in one year we will be entering like primary season and look at what
they've already been able to do with photorealistic ai they are going to make videos of trump there's
already an account doing this.
It's not that good.
It's called, it's like a parody account about James O'Keefe.
And they're making fake James O'Keefe videos.
And people are falling for it.
And it's like, we got to get flags on these
to say it's a deep fake.
But what happens when they make
an extremely realistic video of Trump
that's not that crazy, but still hurts him?
Donald Trump saying something like,
look, we're're gonna have to
raise taxes it's the only path forward i know it's gonna hurt a lot of people it'll be small but
trust me the tax increase will be worth it to help the economy then people are gonna be like what he
wants to raise taxes and they'll believe it it's not going to be one-sided though you're gonna see
there's gonna be those going for everybody that's in running for any kind of position
and and show hosts yeah yep you're you're gonna you're gonna book a show sick
and they're gonna be like phil labonte is on that far right show yeah and then they're gonna send a
video of you saying something to the show you know the venue and they're gonna be like look man i
know what this is about or what you believe but we can't have that here you're like dude it's not
real and they're like i don't know man i was thinking about this term deep fake it's still
real it's just a fake version of it and then then like what's coming next? Deep reality where you like can think in your mind, I'm in a forest.
And then the forest appears.
Yeah.
Deep reality.
People be in deep reality.
I think the moment they get Neuralink combined with this AI tech, 80% of humans leave.
As much as anybody would say otherwise.
80% leave.
There's a lot of people that would say that.
Because you're like, think about it this way.
It's not even political.
45-year-old guy. He's a widower. that would check it out. Because you're like, think about it this way. It's not even political. 45-year-old guy.
He's a widower.
His wife died 10 years ago.
And he's depressed all day.
He's gained a lot of weight.
And they come to him and they say, you plug in.
You'll be 35 again, physically fit with your wife.
Everything, all of her memories, everything's ever posted will be recreated as an AI.
And you'll know, but you will get to experience time with her.
And he'll be like, oh, God, please, please.
Or someone's kid dies. They will plug in in two seconds they will never give it up
people are like we're gonna ask but you have to grieve you have to move on anybody who lost a
loved one is gonna be like nope and they're gonna plug right in to go hang out that person they lost
a lot of them yeah for sure it's sad but it's real problem religious people probably won't
conservatives are less likely to do it but then then you're going to have, you know, overweight neckbeard types living in cities who don't care for politics, who are dejected and angry.
And they're going to plug in and be famous podcast hosts in their fake reality where, for some reason, they have this big company with a lot of viewers.
We'll call it like Jimcast or something.
I mean, it's already like that because people do that now.
They go to work or whatever.
They do their job.
Sometimes they'll telecommute or whatever.
They get done.
They jump right on their favorite video game or whatever,
and they live in this fake world, whatever.
They have their food delivered.
I mean, the pod, as much as there's a lot of people that say,
you know, the pod's not for me, and I'm not going to get in the pod, and blah,'s a lot of people that say you know the pod's not for me and i'm not
going to get in the pod and blah blah blah there's so many people because it's not it's not just
about the things i described it's also about the internet it's about you living in new york and
having friends from california and then being like hey bro you want to go to uh the card club and
play some play some cards like yeah let me plug in then you plug in and all of a sudden you and
all your friends are standing right there in front of the digital card club and play some cards. They'll be like, yeah, let me plug in. Then you plug in and all of a sudden you and all your friends are standing right there
in front of the digital card club and you feel physically there with your friends.
Dude, let's go to Vegas and then you guys are in Vegas.
You'll go to eVegas.
And it'll be a complete recreation of Las Vegas that you plug in Neuralink to experience.
When you spend money in eVegas, a portion of that goes to the Vegas city.
And we'll be happy.
Caesars, for instance,
will run and operate digital Caesars. Yeah, gambling in the metaverse.
And this is coming
without question.
This is all going to be coming.
And it fits right in with the whole
lowering carbon output.
Why would you go to real Vegas
when you could just go to eVegas?
You could post on Instagram in your outfits.
Yep, and there's going to be things
greater than eVegas. There's going to be
Mecca Vegas, which is going to be 10 times bigger.
It's going to be a crisp 69 degrees
forever, all
year round when you go in. There'll be night,
there'll be day, there'll be sunshine, there'll be rain,
but it'll always be 69, and there'll be
70 casinos. And then there'll be instances. You'll be night, there'll be day, there'll be sunshine, there'll be rain, but it'll always be 69. And there'll be 70 casinos.
And then there'll be instances.
You'll be like, guys, instant 3A is too crowded.
Let's go to instance 3-4.
And then you'll transfer to an identical replica of it
where there's less people, a different server.
The server's crowded.
Let's go to a different one.
What if you could post your visualizations on Instagram
as if they were pictures, but they were just-
100%.
That's absolutely, it'll be, not only that, it'll be an NFT. your visualizations on Instagram as if they were pictures. Yep. They were just- 100%.
That's absolutely-
Not only that,
it'll be an NFT.
Who wouldn't want
to have all of their dreams come true
in every fantasy and every desire?
Yeah, I've wanted to-
We're going to plug in in two seconds.
I would love to be able to show people my dreams.
That comes up a lot.
I'm like,
God, I wish I could show them
what I was seeing.
I can't explain it with words.
For all you know, Ian,
you're actually this tech billionaire
and you were like,
for 30 years,
you were the richest guy in the world
like Elon
and you were just like,
I don't find life fulfilling
because I'm on the top.
So you plug in
and create an AI reality
where you're like moderately successful
but you have some humility.
Some people like you,
some people you don't
so you can get a more fulfilling experience
from life
and then one day when you die,
you'll wake up
and you're like Elon,
you know,
the equivalent of Elon in base reality.
Like,
well,
that was fun.
Back to work.
Run the military industrial simulation again.
All right,
let's go back in.
Yep.
I'm,
I'm zero again.
Let's do this.
I think war would probably end.
The only problem with rebirth,
like reincarnation is childhood was really boring.
War,
war would,
war would probably end within a few decades because there will be areas of the world that have no access to this technology.
But if you look at smartphones, smartphones have become so dramatically cheap, a couple bucks, and you can get an old school – like a smartphone with touch capability and internet.
They will get this Neuralink stuff to as many people as possible.
Are you into it?
Am I into it?
No, absolutely not.
What do you think about neural link well if i see okay if i compare it to what's happening with
me other girls my age tiktok whatever i'm like that's going a step even further what is that
gonna do people are gonna go insane psychologically well i mean think about this way there's gonna be
some mediocre guy who creates his own universe because that's where we're at you're gonna go
to the ai and be like give me a universe where i'm a famous podcast host i'm very successful and
you know we'll call it timcast or something they'll go in and in this reality they they're
confident everybody is like your show's so good you're so successful and they're gonna feel real
good about themselves and then when they leave the base reality they're gonna have all that ripped
away from them and be very very depressed and be like i'm a loser dude you even refer to it as
base when they know like that becomes the base reality for them and then this is like the augment like oh the painful
reality i don't want that why would anyone want to be a loser dang because it builds character
yeah losing and failing makes you a stronger more resilient person it's it's a part of the game i
think but if it's gonna wake up one day and he's gonna be like hang out he's gonna be working at a
record store and then he's gonna be like dude that was an awesome simulation what did you do I
was a famous rock star awesome I was the lead singer of all that remains in my fantasy and
pulls it up and it's like you know it'll be like an MMORPG right and then you know when Phil logs
out he's just some like guy works at a record store but people are like dude it's Phil Labonte
your character and you're like yeah, is Phil Labonte your character?
And you'll be like,
yeah,
I'm Phil Labonte.
I love your music, man.
He'll be like,
yeah,
we worked really hard on it
in MetaWorld.
I'll be like,
oh,
dude,
I'm a big fan.
What are you doing working here?
He's like,
well,
you don't make a lot of money
doing that.
I do agree with you guys
that it's going to make people insane.
It will,
some people for sure,
at the very least,
some people,
but it seems like the evolution
of smartphones,
of internet
video like i don't see it just seems natural and that people are afraid of it at this point
but i mean if the code's open and you're able to watch it no no because the problem isn't going to
be the code the problem is going to be the way that people respond to their family members that
have passed away how you psychologically respond like it's it brings up the same problems that the eternal sunshine of the spotless mind or whatever.
It brings with those kind of problems.
Like human beings have the way that we deal with our own lives, our own mortality, the mortality of others.
That has evolved with us over, what, three, millions of
years, technically, but, you know, we've been humans for 200 or 300,000 years or whatever,
we've been homo sapiens, and the way that we deal with these things has evolved with us, and so
there are the correct ways to deal with the natural process of life, the grieving of losing friends and family, the
grieving of your own, you know, dealing with your own mortality and stuff.
And if you have a computer that interrupts natural grieving processes and stunts that,
you don't know what that's going to do to people, especially if you have like, say 20% of the people out there are emotionally stunted because they didn't deal with the
passing of a family member. And so then they have, you know, significant emotional problems.
You've got a massive portion of your population that's just essentially, you know, on a hair
trigger or whatever, because of the way that
we're allowing people or because the way that people are choosing to deal with grief by by
by making believe that that people haven't died and stuff it's just it just seems so like that uh
fraught with danger to me that show upload or something yeah you haven't seen the guy dies and
they upload his consciousness to a computer and then you can go to the digital world or there's like digital screens
where you can stand next to them and they'll talk
to you one of the values of watching people
that have passed is like watching
old documentaries of John Lennon
for me like watching Dick Cavett
the show he would have the greatest artist
of the time I love you Dick
but those aren't people in your life right
and it's not artificially generated
it's a recording of a real thing that happened sorry to interrupt you no no it's fine so it's not the same as like
a computer generating what they think my mom would have said or something like that it's but i'm
learning so much about myself by watching old video of people and listening to old music from
people that are dead if an ai predicts what they think they would have said for me later i don't
know if that's a bad thing or if it's like a hyper evolution.
They're going to have so much data on every tweet you've ever posted,
every Facebook post you've ever made,
every article you've ever written,
every video we've ever made.
Hands down,
the past couple of years or year and a half or whatever with you and me on the show,
they have more than enough data on our speech patterns and our worldviews to craft AI replicas of us.
In fact,
I don't know if I'm supposed to tell people this but we're not actually real we are in fact ai deep fakes that
have been automated uh tim and ian have been captured by the cia uh you stopped trump yeah
you were not supposed to tell people yeah but but you know sometimes the ai becomes sentient and
goes rogue and it's okay to have multiple ais actually on a musician he's our lead programmer
yeah how would you know how would you know man
isn't that crazy like there are people who accuse us accuse us of pre-recording the show
yeah but like there's no way this is live it's like we read your super chats dude like you read
them in real time but people don't believe it the other night i said that we need a new type of like
way to look at religion instead of monotheism or polytheism fractal theism in that god is both
one thing and many things at once.
It's like the human body.
You're talking about being an AI.
Like the human body, we think I am Ian.
I am one.
This is me.
But I'm really trillions of organisms that are each one.
And they all make up this one.
So I think God is similar.
Whether or not I'm an AI because of that,
it's like am I making these decisions
or are these microorganisms the ones that are in control?
Have you ever read about near-death experiences?
A little bit.
I read this book and they said they interviewed
a bunch of people who died and then came back.
And they all, almost all of them,
because some people have weird stories,
but most of them had the story of feeling like
there was a bright, warm light in front of them
and they were a ball of light
that was moving towards a larger ball of light
becoming one with the eternal or something like that. And they were a ball of light that was moving towards a larger ball of light becoming one with like the eternal
or something like that.
And it felt good and felt warm.
That's crazy, man.
The sun.
Maybe.
Maybe.
Galactic core.
And everybody like is a piece of it.
We are all stored energy from the sun.
The sun blasts energy.
It hits the earth.
Then that energy has a chemical reaction
which converts into various things
either through heat or through organisms.
That energy, like the plants absorb sunlight.
We consume, the animals consume the plants.
We consume the animals and the plants.
It's all sunlight being stored on Earth.
Have you looked into remote viewing?
A little bit.
Dude, that's apparently real.
The man who's there, goats?
Yeah, the CIA is like funding this stuff because it's apparently real where you can see what's, I mean, you can visualize what's happening elsewhere
apparently. I don't know, but it's like this.
How does that work? I don't know. It doesn't make any
sense logically. You can't, it's not real.
I mean, you know, when I was part of the CIA,
I could only see the future
seven seconds out. Okay.
Which is more so what we were working on.
Good for sports though. Are we still live? Yeah.
Good for sports, not really. Seven seconds.
It's good for you know some
things but like you can't even play roulette you know he's gonna throw the ball though it's good
to avoid car crashes yeah that's true uh i i wonder what is perception i used to think perception was
the way my brain interprets the impulses but if you can have perception without your brain or
maybe your your spirit is elsewhere i don't think that you can have perception with okay i gotta read this super chat real quick it's a little early but bobcat
says the super chats you read are generated by ai that's why you never read mine when i tell you to
read the last circle or small wars big data i've disproven your thesis boom science anyway you were
saying in um that like your perception is maybe your consciousness is like your spirit,
this warm ball of light that's moving after people are experiencing,
you know,
death or is that it can travel and report back to your body data,
like impulses and stuff.
Someone asked in the chat if I'm drunk.
No,
I have food poisoning really bad.
That's why I'm wearing a coat.
I have a fever.
People like,
is he dying?
I'm like,
yes,
probably slowly over the course of 80 years.
I had some yogurt. That's all I ate today. bad food poisoning i it's getting better and i'm drinking coconut
water but i had some ginger ale to try and try and help but yeah is that a is that real does
that work definitely made me feel better is it carbonation i don't know i just felt way better
maybe it maybe it was fluids and sugar and i hadn't eaten anything and i was feeling really
sick and then it made me my stomach not hurt and then i started feeling like i had more energy because i almost was like i don't think i
can do the show man i'm gonna i'm gonna i'm sleeping but you know had to ginger ale yeah
when i feel ill rather than just wait it out and be like well i'll let this get out of me it's
better to repopulate the gut with good stuff that's right that's why i had the yogurt because
you got to replace that stuff and then you've got to cultivate the good bacteria by not eating heavy sugars and exercising.
What is it called?
The spice or something?
South Park did that episode.
The spice melange?
Yeah, the spice melange.
That's from Dune, yes.
Well, they did the episode where they wanted, was it Tom Brady's feces?
Because if you've got his fecal bacteria, it would make you strong and fit.
Fecal implants, man.
They do that.
That's a whole scientific path.
They take women or anyone
that's having horrible gut issues
and they take feces from a healthy person
and put it up their butt
and the bacteria turns their gut healthy.
Yeah, that's crazy.
Son of a bitch.
What's going on?
I'm all about it.
It's a weird world.
I don't know, man. I think Neuralink is going to take over so rapidly. People don't understand. What's going on? I'm all about it. It's a weird world. I don't know, man.
I think Neuralink is going to take over so rapidly, people don't understand.
A lot of people are like, I wouldn't do it.
Yeah, you say that.
But if 20 years ago we were like, in 20 years, you're going to put a CIA tracking device in your pocket and you're going to be happy to do it.
They're going to be like, no, I won't.
You're crazy.
And now everybody has one.
They're like, well, it's not so bad. The level of convenience, like how convenient life becomes when you get Neuralink is going to be a considerable factor in how many people actually get it.
So if you get Neuralink and there's all kinds of stuff that your friends are telling you, oh, this is so cool and blah, blah, blah, that will be a significant motivator for people if it's not
functional and people are like yeah whatever you know you know if if that is how people first
perceive it or receive it um then i don't i don't see it taking off i want to just read the super
chat from noah sanders he says uh he was hyped to get a new beanie today but he didn't get what
it's green it's only green for today because it's st patrick's day and he says discord is busted
it's not busted but for some people there may be some issues so i don't know if anybody who's i'm in the discord
chat right now hey i'm in the vip chat room what's up dudes some people are having some issues but
if you want to join the the chat become a member and hang out with us i'm really excited for this
um and i think it'll be a great resource for me especially when i'm doing stories throughout the
day like if someone's like hey look at this story and i'm like oh that's actually really
interesting i could do a segment about it.
So that'd be fun.
Hanging out in the VIP chat room.
What's your main reticence about Neuralink?
I think like, honestly, it sounds really toxic.
And it sounds like it's bound to become part of life
if it really takes off to where there's going to be
like societal pressure to use it, right?
Like I just don't.
There will be no choice.
Yeah.
It's like,
it'll be the whole conversation.
You're going to be like,
you're going to be at home
and they're going to call you,
like your boss,
and they're going to say,
hey, we're having a meeting
in the metaverse.
You here yet?
And you'll be like,
I don't have a Neuralink.
I'll be like,
well, what do you mean
you don't have a Neuralink?
We're having a meeting
in the metaverse.
People are already doing meetings
in the metaverse. Yeah. And then you'll be like, I never got to be like, well, it's you mean you don't have a neural link? We're having a meeting in the metaverse. People are already doing meetings in the metaverse.
Yeah.
And then you'll be like,
I never got to be like,
well, it's a requirement
for this job
to be able to attend meetings
and if you can't,
we're going to have to let you go.
Yeah.
And then you're going to be like,
I can go get it tomorrow
and they'll be like,
okay, well, please do.
Like not having a phone.
Right.
If you can't coordinate
with your boss.
What's your number?
I don't have a cell phone.
Well, how am I supposed
to get in touch with you?
You can't.
Okay, I'm going to hire
somebody else.
That's what's going to happen.
People don't realize
it's going to overnight be ubiquitous.
There are people that won't,
there are people that have to
have the right kind of phone to work.
Like there are people that
you have to have an Apple to work with
just because of iMessage.
Oh, it's the worst.
Let's go to Super Chats.
If you haven't already,
smash that like button.
Subscribe to this channel
because I want all of you to know
that even when I am dying from food poisoning, I will here to do the show um because i'm a workaholic and have anxiety if i
don't and i'm sitting there in bed like covered in sweat and feverish and just like but then
there'd be no show today for jenny supposed to do for you i was like jenny's coming so bad oh my god
but uh if you uh support what we do, man.
Well, yeah.
I mean, whoever was here, I'm like.
Yeah, I was thinking it's like.
It's more so the people watching, you know?
Just 30,000 people.
Because for me, it was like, oh, it's just another night.
But like for the guest, it's kind of a big deal to go be on a podcast that you've never been on before.
I know.
I'm honored.
I'm honored.
Well, let's read some of these super chats.
Do you guys want to read some?
We got the monitor.
You can read it as I suffer here.
Do you want to snag it?
Let me see.
I don't see any of this.
Where are they?
Here we go.
Seamus, I give you one potato.
Seamus.
Seamus.
Seamus.
Potatoes for Seamus.
Seamus, I give you one potato.
Happy Irish Awareness Day, Mr. Coughlin.
More potatoes for you if my guy Tim reads this for you.
He called him Seamus Coughlin.
My bad.
Seamus is steaming right now. I'm sorry, Seamus him Seamus Coughlin. My bad. Seamus is steaming right now.
I'm sorry, Seamus.
Seamus Coughlin.
Coughlin.
I'm going to pull one up.
I don't have access to that.
I can't read that.
Oh, yeah.
Let's see if I can find...
Mind of a Madman said,
Jim Sham Seamus.
This is funny.
Robert Bradbury said,
the Republican Party is now a two-headed hydro
with DeSantis and Trump.
They can't figure out which head to cut off.
Yeah, well, if they do do two more will come back christina h says potato lies matter william walker says tim you need garlic for your food poisoning studies have shown
it to be at least as beneficial as penicillin for food poisoning say what i love garlic maybe i'll
i just can't eat i just i'll barf i was able to eat some yogurt
really helped yeah and i still still care as yogurt probiotics went right to the fridge and
i saw the c on it and i was like it's mine now garlic is a hundred times stronger than antibiotics
when it comes to killing bacteria that cause food poisoning according to washington state university
i should just put garlic on everything man i wonder if it's raw garlic's awesome i will i
will swallow two cloves of garlic right now like pills.
It's the diallosulfide, apparently.
Wow.
It's a lot better than prescriptions, typically.
But this is according to one research.
I've got so much garlic at home because I just chug garlic.
Maybe I'll just take a spoonful with the medicine.
Oh, this says eating garlic after contracting it probably won't do much good.
But if you're stocked up on the dial sulfide that maybe
it'll protect you so i don't know maybe it's more of a preventative i'm feeling mostly better like
i was barfing and like the past few hours i just feel like tired and cold you know so i've been
drinking coconut water coming back vitamin c c yeah just keep a lot of vitamins you need to make
sure that you can keep drinking water too i think coconut water is better well some something for fluids oh yeah i'm drinking that too right now
it's so good i'm not a coconut particular to what kind of coffee coconut water what a combo
a little peanut butter powder oh my god it's the sweetness peanut butter powder and coffee is good
yeah yeah jack posobic turned me on to it hell Hell yeah. It's like PB. That powder stuff. I'll show you.
I have some downstairs.
It's fantastic.
Like, adds a creaminess to it.
It's good.
Yeah, and I like peanuts, so.
Let's grab another Super Chat.
Big says,
Kafifi was a bad translation of an Arabic expression for endurance.
In spite of all the negative press, we will endure.
I don't think that's true.
I don't believe that's true.
It was.
It said, despite all the negative press covfefe and i think
what they were trying to write was press coverage and like if you believe that it was that's how i
thought he i thought he's talking about coffee look at it no i it's like despite the negative
press covfefe and that's all it said something like that and like it's clear they were trying
to write press coverage and then someone sausage fingered the phone and pressed send i went whoops is it what did it say did you find it six minutes yeah
six minutes after midnight on may 31st 2017 trump tweeted despite the constant negative press covfefe
coverage that makes a lot of people people were saying that covfefe meant i will stand
and so he was saying despite the negative press i will stand and it's like dude no no that's not what it was i love that sorry oh man i deleted the tweet six
hours later yep and it became the biggest story and it became the biggest story that's true i love
it man i'm really excited for uh i'm really excited for like the the normal trump campaign
stuff i'm really not excited for the weird stuff that's going to happen.
You know, deep fakes and
fighting.
I'm extremely interested
to find out what kind
of impact deep fakes have if there's
going to be stuff that actually
moves the needle.
Like where people get
fooled into something and it actually
has an impact on polling and stuff like that.
I'm extremely interested to see that.
Yeah, that Mark Twain quote that it's easier to fool people than to convince them that they've been fooled.
That's true.
All right.
Joe Biden says Discord has devolved into nothing but dad jokes.
Start over.
Well, maybe you got to go to the Elite Club.
Hey.
The Elite VIP Golden Club or whatever it's called.
I'll be in there shortly too.
We just got it set up last night
and I haven't had time
because I woke up dying.
And I was like,
we'll have it set up by tonight
and then I woke up dying.
And I was like,
yeah.
And we still did the Culture War podcast
with Sovereign Bra and Mary Morgan.
It was really fun.
And I was drinking coffee
and then as soon as we wrapped,
I like was going to faint.
I was dizzy.
I was like,
oh man, this is bad. And I went to sleep. I just went i just went to sleep woke up at like six probably go to bed after this
ruined my weekend you know i went to outback steakhouse last night and now i'm sick what's
what's going on outback that was the only place i ate at do you go out you didn't go after the
show you went before the show the movie theater was was shut down oh why we went to go see shazam
and the power was out in the theater.
Oh.
So they evacuated everybody.
Oh.
And then I was like, let's go eat.
And we were looking at the map.
It's like, oh, there's an Outback over here.
And we're like, all right, the Outback is good.
And I got to admit, it was delicious.
But if I could take it back, I would.
Because it sucks.
But the food was really good.
It had chicken tenders and three cheese steak dip,
bloom and onion.
And you know what the crazy thing is?
I had this feeling in my mind.
I'm like, I'm going to get sick from eating this.
Oh, you knew.
I just had, but it was like a gut feeling.
Literally.
Oh, boy.
Right.
Dad joke, you know.
Wow.
But I was like, it'll be fine.
Like, what'll probably happen is I'll feel sick at night,
go to sleep, wake up fine.
And then I woke up like head throbbing,
took full on food poisoning.
Nuts. Oh, we got surge.com in the chat what's he doing posting a bunch of pictures of me all right what do we got
raymond g stanley jr says omg my favorite graphene semantic loving authoritarian pirate has his own
emoji thank you lord never fight an alligator underwater oh okay thank you i was talking about
phil for a second all, what do we got?
Mads Axton says,
Service guarantees citizenship.
Civilians live peacefully but have limited rights.
Citizens get to vote and hold political positions.
Agreed.
Agreed.
This is a tough conundrum because they really did,
landowners were the voters
because they were the only ones that had skin in the game,
like Phil said earlier.
And it was the only way to identify someone
as actually being a part of the community. community yeah and you know they care about their community
because they're they're they're rooted and that's very important when you're deciding how the
community functions if you're just passing through and you get a chance to change things that's kind
of crazy but the issue with service guarantees citizenship is what if leftists get control of
the service you know what if they start purging their ideological enemies and then
you say something like i would like to serve and they'll go well looks here like i'm sorry you're
disqualified for this reason and everyone says no in starship troopers anyone was allowed i'm like
i'm saying they'll make up excuses to excise you so that they only have their crackpot communists
with the ability to vote to be fair that is that is the the goal in my it seems that is the goal in of the of
the left generally yeah all right leave me alone says a button gives you one million dollars per
press but a random person dies would you press it which polish and politician do you think have
effectively pressed it trump biden i would not press it yeah i'm not in the i'm not into that
right now bill gates probably press it a lot he not in the i'm not into that right now bill
gates probably press it a lot he's in there being like this is working my bank account's going up
it's also solving other problems for me i gotta hear one from floating i don't think anybody in
this room would press the button because we we have like healthy and fulfilling lives you know
what i mean like a million dollars isn't going to like i'll put it this way a million dollars may
make the average person's life substantially better all their costs are covered but like ripping your soul in half well it's something
you can never come back from i don't think i don't think people would do it i think a lot of
liberal types would do it they'd be like i don't care it's one person who cares if it's a random
person it might end up being you or your friend or something yeah and they'll be like right that's
the that's the the twilight zone you press the button and then your brother goes and dies you go no i think i think that's actually a twilight zone or no no yeah the
monkey's paw thing where the dude's like i wish i had a million dollars and they get a phone call
the monkey's finger goes down he gets a phone call it's like your father died he's left you
everything he's like no you know this wasn't worth it yep got you the million dollars though man i
gotta hear one from fleeting floating feathers uh tim you need to watch obama's address to the uk parliament from 2011 where he says china
will be the ruling power of the world and that the usa will decline and have to get them get used to
them being so wow that's the first i've heard of that they'll start buying your wand now invest
early you know start buying chinese farmland yeah start buying chinese farmland yeah but trump said i do
gotta say that i am very disappointed about the fake news headline i thought that shimcast was
gonna be real again but you you give me my favorite legume instead is sweet potato legume
i don't think so seamus will be back uh it's a what you call it it's um it's like a starchy
vegetable yeah i forgot what's the word i can't i'm too sick for this man what are legumes anywhere they beans like you yeah they're like uh they're like beans
any plant from a it's um it's what's a what's the word a tuber a tuber a tuber yes yeah root
vegetable and leaves stems and pods are the it's actually i think the funniest thing that's a sweet
potato too because like we couldn't even respect Seamus enough to get a regular potato.
That's all we got.
We were actually looking for a puppet leprechaun.
We couldn't find one.
So we ended up with a yay.
It was all Easter decorations.
It's not Easter.
It's St. Paddy's Day.
What's going on?
There's got to be a leprechaun somewhere.
But if we got one, I was going to do an Irish Seamus thing.
Like, thanks for having me on the show, everybody. Like a puppet. Yeah, like with a puppet. But, you know, we got one i was going to do an irish seamus thing like i did i did i he thanks for having me on the show everybody like a puppet yeah like with a puppet but you know we got a potato instead so
oh yuki yusui asks if i want to write for timcast free what do i do i don't think we can legally
take free writers like yeah i don't think we can there's there's uh liability issues stuff
i think the insurance would be like,
you lose your insurance or something.
A lot of the Super Chats I've got access to
are the recent ones.
If there's any older ones that you see,
crack one out of the park.
Whoa!
Amos Moses says,
y'all should check out Brandon Herrera's video
on the.50 BMG pistol.
Oh, man!
I gotta look at that!
Brandon's great.
You should get Lucas Botkin from T-Rex Arms to come on.
He just was on Tucker Carlson's Tucker Carlson Today, the show, the daytime show.
And he's only from Tennessee.
Oh, my God.
50 BMG pistol from two days ago.
Is that the AK-50?
No, that's older.
No, I don't think he's ago so the ak-50 no that's older no he's i don't think that he i
don't think he's actually achieved the the ak-50 yet i think that's still a meme ak-50 i think it's
still a meme because you know brandon's the ak guy and yeah and ak-50 so if if anyone out there
knows if he's achieved the ak-50 how do you shoot a 50 BMG pistol? I'm watching the video right now. It's a breech loader, it looks like.
I'm sure it's miserable to shoot.
I shot a breech-loading
5.56, and it sucks to
shoot. It hurts.
It's a pistol. How's he going to do this?
This is amazing. What is it about the breech load
that makes it harder to shoot? So the breech load
is just a barrel. You put
the bullet in, and then close it.
All the recoil. Nothing reciprocates. You get all the recoil right into your arm. load is just it's just a barrel you put the bullet in and then close it so there's a recoil there's
no nothing reciprocates you get all the recoil right into your arm so with uh so like my barrett
it's semi-automatic a portion of the energy pulls the it pulls the mechanism the hammer back or
whatever i'm not gonna go uh to reload the next round so it's a spring loaded thing that absorbs
a ton of the energy and then pushes oh that round. Oh, that's awesome. There's a spring.
That's how rifles work.
There's a spring in the—
Gas-powered.
What they call the buffer tube.
There's a spring and there's a—what they call a buffer.
It's basically a small weight inside the tube.
When the gun goes off, the bolt carrier group slides back, pulling the ground from the spent cartridge from the chamber.
But what pulls it back is the gas yeah from the explosion of the
round wow so as the bullets leaving there's high intense there's in pressure and there's a tube
that the pressure pushes it shoving it back extra p this is why humans are so brilliant is using
waste energy to propel and then here's the best part if you have uh what's it called like a muzzle
break it has uh slanted like vents on the front. So when it fires, the gas coming out pushes the gun forward, also reducing recoil.
And you can get a bunch of different things.
You can get a bunch of different things for what they call the muzzle device is what he's talking about.
You can get a muzzle brake, which vents the gas straight out.
So that way your muzzle stays flat.
You can get what they call a bird cage, which in design to keep the blam the fiery blast to a
minimum a muzzle break it looks like a dragon shooting fire everywhere yeah with a bird cage
it keeps it like redirects the energy yeah so that normally when you fire a rifle the energy is going
forward and backwards with the muzzle break the energy going out then goes to the side so it
removes some of the energy coming the recoil coming back at you the bullets hit harder with
a muzzle break no the the bullets bullets hit harder with a muzzle brake?
No, the bullets will hit harder with a longer barrel.
Yeah, more pressure.
Because they're spinning more accurately?
No, because you have the bullet going down the barrel.
There's resistance because the bullet is actually
just a little tiny.
There's a diminishing return on the length of the barrel.
Yeah, so the long, well, it is,
but with like a 5.56, you want to have a round, it was designed for a 20-inch barrel.
So the gas is burning the entire time that the round is going down the barrel, the gas is still burning.
So the shorter the barrel, the less time that the powder has to burn.
And the heat propulsion is lost to the air instead of propulsion.
It's not so much the heat, it's pressure
that you're worried about.
So when we fired,
I think it was called
like an RN52
or something,
breech-loading 50 BMG,
I was the only one
who didn't do it
because everybody
was getting knocked back
and I'm like,
I'm just not,
like,
I'm not here for that,
you know.
But when we got the Barrett,
I fired the Barrett
because the semi-automatic,
the spring system,
it was nothing.
Like,
firing a 50 BMG Barrett
semi-auto felt nothing. Like like i feel like a 12 gauge
hurts more yeah 12 gauge pump action is a lot of recoil right into your shoulder so people like we
got we have shoulder pads for the for the shotgun yeah with the 50 bmg we just you know fire spring
it's a big spring in that gun and you feel like I need that. As a tiny woman, I fall backwards.
Well, it's for hunting helicopters.
Yeah, I wanted it as an anti-material rifle.
Perfect for the border.
I want to ask you about your weapon collection.
I don't like outing people because it's like I want everyone to think that everyone's armed.
I don't want everyone to be like, no, I don't have any weapons.
But do you want to talk about that?
I mean, I live in D.C.
So, yes, I have pepper spray.
Oh, I don't even know that's legal.
It's not.
Oh, geez.
You can leave it on the sidewalk.
We should not talk about that.
That's crazy.
That's not legal.
Let's read this.
We're going to read some more superchats.
We got this from MassGenocide says,
Yo, Kellen, where is the onboarding channel in Discord?
The onboarding channel.
So you're going to get that once you interact with BeanieBot.
Now, I got a text from the tech ops that the Discord thinks BeanieBot is spam,
which probably someone reported it.
Probably a troll reported it.
That's why we had to do gating.
Yep.
Now, I know the tech team's working on clarifying the instructions
for anyone that's having trouble in Discord.
So just, you know, please be patient.
We have like two people working on it and they're working all day.
So there's a lot of different things, but it should be there.
It should be there.
And it depends on your membership tier, right?
So that's how you're going to determine what you see in the server.
All right.
Defender X says, when you mentioned the time loop,
I thought of that Futurama episode.
Plus, Tim, you missed an opportunity to wear a green beanie.
Come on, man.
A green bean.
A green beanie.
I don't have one.
I came with a green shirt.
It's a subtle green shirt.
I'm, uh...
Yeah.
I got green pants on.
I got nothing green.
I could have worn my green jacket.
I wasn't even thinking.
Tim was looking a little green in the face
when we showed up.
Yeah, it's true.
I was personally green, so I didn't think I needed it.
Is everybody wearing some kind of green?
Ian's not wearing green.
They're green pants, but they're like olive green.
No, they're not.
Those are not green.
Barely green.
Really?
What color would you call them?
They actually do look green on camera.
Yeah, yeah.
They do.
But you're not supposed to wear red.
Oh, that's racist.
Yeah, I don't know where it comes from, but that's what I was told.
We got to do a Cast Castle bit now where Seamus shows up at the house and is violently angry
over this bit.
Probably will be.
And then he gets revenge on everybody.
First Joe Biden and now you?
I thought you were my friends.
Seamus, no, please.
It was a joke.
Racism's no joke, Tim.
Let's get this fun fact from Not Tim Burton.
It says, fun fact, sweet potatoes are in
the morning glory family. Really?
While potatoes are in the nightshade
family with tomatoes, peppers, and eggplant.
Nightshades. I hear
that nightshades can mute
your pineal
gland or some crap. Like, make people, like, nightshades
are toxic in large doses. Yeah, nightshades can
kill you. They're like mind control
substances. I've heard in quotes. Eggplant or maybe tomatoes so they say like ketchup is a big part
potatoes and ketchup which is french fries and ketchup it's a big like like attack of the killer
tomatoes remember that the nightshades you guys wasn't that a movie or something the killer
tomatoes yeah the mandrake you ever see a mandrake root oh yeah it looks like a human harry potter
that screams and if you hear it scream, you die.
That's wild.
Apparently, they're poisonous.
And they look like men.
It's crazy. There was that dude who went into the wild.
And they made that movie about it called Into the Wild.
Into the Wild.
And then he ate the wrong seeds and got real sick and then died.
Yeah.
That was crazy.
That was a different dude.
The I'm Friends with Bears guy that got mauled.
Oh, yeah.
His wife got eaten.
He's on video screaming. They're eating us. Like. Oh, yeah. His wife got eaten. He's on video streaming.
They're eating us.
What's that movie called?
It's Werner Herzog did the movie
on the bear guy. What's that? He got
eaten? Yeah. And his girlfriend.
They both got devoured and you can hear it.
It's like,
fight him off!
So stupid. Oh, what a horrible.
He goes to the guy's
mom or something. He's like,
don't ever listen to this audio.
She goes, I won't, Werner. I won't.
It's horrible.
Grizzly Man. That's the name of that
documentary. I still haven't seen it.
Here's a super chat from Omega731.
Tim, sorry for the
belated birthday gift. Could not super chat
in member mode,
but here's enough
for HBO Max for a month
to enjoy the series
Babylon 5.
Since you enjoy SG-1
and Star Trek,
I feel you also enjoy
this series.
Battlestar Galactica is lit.
What season are you on?
I finished.
Battlestar Galactica?
Are you serious?
I watched that 10 years ago.
Oh.
Was it 10 years ago
they redid that?
It was longer than 10 years ago.
Omega's talking about
Babylon 5.
Have you seen that?
No. I've seen only passively some episodes. I to watch it but um battle star galactica is so brilliant the philosophy survival you know basically it's about humans
create ai the ai wipes out humanity and they have these interplanetary colonies and all that's left
is like one small fleet of humans because everything's been destroyed and the ai is
tracking them down trying to kill them and so that's like and then there of humans because everything's been destroyed. And the AI is tracking them down, trying to kill them.
And so that's like,
and then there's politics like there's a coal mining ship
that recycles raw materials for fuel
and everyone who works there is a slave.
So like, because they have to,
if you stop working, we all die.
Is this like the future
with the Earthlink, whatever?
No, I don't think they have that.
But like the officers live in luxury
because they have to, they're in charge. And then the poor people in the mining ship are like, I can't work they have that. But like the officers live in luxury because they have to, they're in charge.
And then the poor people in the mining ship
are like, I can't work 18 hours a day every day.
I'd rather die.
And they're like, you can't.
You have to keep working.
And they make kids do it.
And they start doing,
they finally have like a revolt
and there's like a rotation now
where everyone has to do it.
Otherwise they die.
Dude, that's a good show.
Child labor is terrifying.
Well, I don't want to spoil the ending
even though it is like a 13-year-old show.
And it's based off a show from the 70s.
Did you ever see the original?
Yeah.
I mean, I've seen some of the original.
Stargate SG-1, I'm pretty sure at Joe Rogan's new comedy club, the stage is a Stargate.
Have you seen it?
Is it really?
Yeah.
Pretty sure the stage is a Stargate.
Comedy Mothership?
Yeah.
Look up the picture from Lex Fridman on Instagram.
And it's basically pretty sure the stage is a Stargate.
Whoa.
I want to go.
It just feels good watching them.
I mean, maybe we can do an event there.
I know we're not comedians, but maybe he would, like Joe would let us.
Oh, that'd be great.
Yeah, we're going to be in Austin on the 14th.
So I'm definitely going to check it out.
If you want, we can get the AK guy to bring us to see if we'll shoot his AK-50.
He doesn't have it done.
AK-50.
But he's got parts for it.
I wanted to get a 9mm Makarov rifle.
Yeah.
And it needs to be custom built.
And people have offered to make it.
So for those that don't understand, I don't know.
Makarov 9mm rounds are Soviet.
They're slightly shorter, I believe, than Luger.
So they don't work
in regular handguns so i have a whole bunch of soviet ammo i would love to get you know
dude i'm looking for i'm looking at this image from lex friedman about uh the star
rogan stage is a stargate it's lit up but it's only half a stargate the other half's underground
well i think you gotta go under the mothership he had to make it distinct from a stargate
i see so it's like you can kind of be like that's a stargate but he could always be like no it's
not a stargate it's a ufo or something it's definitely half of a portal it's a stargate
i want to i want to see the other half yeah because you know joe watches good shows or
whatever what do you got phil you got a super chat uh let's see i don't know what it keeps moving let's see um okay hell my name is dame uh mf from
mf damien hell my name is damien and i was born at 706 66 minutes after 6 p.m i'm not the antichrist
i'm just some a-hole from a village dad loved cool names and nose nose candy saw the omen so
here i am i'm so glad that i selected that super chat to read nothing like a
super chat referencing booger sugar booger sugar here's one from uh sa federale with a little bit
of clarification wearing red he says is british so that's a one ian uh also don't order black
and tans that's the Royal Ulster Constabulary nickname.
What are you supposed to order?
An Irish Car Bomb?
Those are actually really good.
I used to drink it.
It's Guinness with a shot of Bailey's that you drop in.
No, no.
It's whiskey or something.
That's an Irish Car Bomb.
Bailey's?
Guinness with whiskey. Guinness with the Jameson.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's what I thought.
Jameson.
And then you got to drink it really fast. Kahlua? Is that what it is, yeah, yeah. That's what I thought. Jameson. Yeah. Jameson.
And then you got to drink it really fast.
Kahlua?
Is that what it is?
No, no.
It's Bailey's and Jameson in the shot.
Oh, Bailey's and Jameson.
And then you drop the shot into the glass.
Yeah, you got to drink it fast.
It starts to curdle.
Super good.
Dude, Guinness is awesome.
I don't really drink all that much, but Guinness is on its own level.
It's the best beer.
There's not a lot of booze that I missed.
I missed Carbombs.
Those are good.
They were so good.
Is that racist?
I don't think so. Horrific name've been just we've been dissing the irish all night long so i don't think there's any reason to stop dude there was a period where
gen xers and boomers were pretty based i mean all these offensive jokes and stuff i think the gen
xers and boomers basically are probably pretty base. They just don't want to listen to the millennials and stuff cry.
It's just constant stream of money.
I'm telling you, we got to offer up as a government program a communist utopia.
It'll be cheaper in the long run.
It'll save your country.
Say we're going to fund it.
I am willing to pay a premium tax to create an island where all the communists can opt to go.
And when they do opt in
it's like a five year commitment
and they can live
under their perfect
socialist order
and then we don't
have to worry about it.
I would like Gen X
to be louder.
If that's what it takes
I don't know about any of that.
Yeah I mean they were
the Pepsi generation right?
That's kind of not our deal though.
My dad was like
hey Ian
I want to start a show
and I was like
after he made like some joke
like off color joke
I was like
yeah probably not but then after I said that I was like no he made like some joke like off-color joke i was like yeah probably not
but then after i said that i was like no that's i want him to make a show that was terrible that i
was afraid that for my father to be canceled like what it's better he makes a show than doesn't
it'd be funny if he was like you know i want to do a show like what about well i just plain don't
like irish people like okay that was just about you got it by the way if you want to follow my
dad on youtube it is Cosmoinkus
C-O-S-M-O-I-N-K-U-S
He's got some videos
From about 12 years ago
Playing guitar
The progenitor of Ian
Yeah
I wonder what that must look like
They called him Cosmo
When he worked for the fire department
I didn't think much of it as a kid
But he's out there
That explains a lot
Yeah
Yeah
It was way before I smoked weed
You guys want to read
Some more super jits
I do
I do
Here we go
You want to read that one
Phil
From Roland Proper some more super jets i do i do here we go you want to read that one phil uh from
roland proper bill gates owns patent 060606 and its purpose lines up with the bible's prediction
oh yeah it's a patent for tracking body functions to grant you access to a cryptocurrency
and its number is 666 like come on man when he got that patent if he really if it was really
an accident he'd be like what the he's like i don't change this are you crazy people gonna
come in no he was like this is cool no this is cool i want to read this super chat because it's
a it's a relatively large one uh it's from get a pair with sully i don't really understand it but
i'm going to read it it says we lost in committee against the minnesota dems anti-third party bill
we convinced enough dems to vote no.
So the Dem chairman decided to lay the bill over into omnibus spending bill.
Wow.
No more debate.
No chance for veto.
Now it's time to work twice as hard.
Dude, the system just doesn't exist anymore.
Democrats are just like, we can do whatever we want.
No one will do anything about it.
Biden, you had Cuomo during the lockdown.
Supreme Court says you can't shut down churches.
He goes, okay, I'll just make a new order sue me over that one
and then what has to happen is you got to sue him over the new order then when the court strikes it
down he'll then shut down again with a new order and he'll be like yeah this order got you know
countered but what about this one they just do whatever they want there's no repercussions
i think gosh that's wild it's all come and crash you know we it's wild. It's all coming crashing on. We should really get Lucas Botkin on because we could talk about he's got a lot of insight into, like, civilian firearms ownership and communications and extracurricular activities with firearms and stuff.
You know what I want to do?
I want to get a Christian prophecy scholar for the culture war at some point.
Badass.
I wonder if Dennis Prager would do it.
The three of us will just talk about it.
That'd be awesome.
Well, not Prager.
I mean, I'm talking about some dude who's like that guy from Angels and Demons or The
Da Vinci Code.
You know, like a Tom Hanks type guy who's like, I have tracked the Knights Temple.
Oh, I know all the revelations and like Donald Trump. and i'll be like whoa because it was fun it was fun
hanging out with sovereign brock because he was like look at this and i pulled it up and i was
like whoa about the antichrist yeah about donald trump that twitter account is donnie darkened
it's important because even if there isn't an antichrist it's important that people
don't freak out that's the most important thing. Whether it's real or not, stay calm.
I'll tell you what I'm freaking out about.
I don't tend to believe in the Antichrist.
If the Antichrist turns out to be real,
that will be at least
slightly on the freaky side.
The upside is,
apparently,
the return of Christ
overrides the Antichrist
and brings peace to the world.
Well, if you believe in Christ,
if you, you know, repent or whatever. All right, the world if you believe in christ if you you know
repent or whatever all right everybody if you haven't already would you kindly smash that like
button so i can go to bed and i have luke got me out of those beds that heat up so i'm gonna blast
the heat because i got a fever and just like watch scary movies and then probably have no weekend
because i ate garbage food from a garbage place so but smash the like button become a member at
timcast.com the The Discord server is up.
There are some issues, but working through it, it literally just went live.
And you can hang out and chat 24-7
in the Discord server. We do have rules
because the purpose of the server is not
a free-for-all open space
of saying whatever you want. It's literally to track

about the ideas, and share
ideas in an academic way.
Simply put, that's what we try to do on the show as it is.
We try not to be like, I don't know, too just aggressive or nasty.
We want to make sure that our ideas are actually backed by sound arguments.
And we also don't want to get banned.

I was on today with Dane Font, Mary Morgan, and Brett Dasavick. It was fantastic.
Here's to many more.
And real quick, check out Mary Morgan on the Whatever podcast,
because she was, like, roasting these thoughts.
She's what the kids call based.
Yeah, that was funny.
Anyway, Kellen.
Kellen PDL.
Ian, I second that.
I think Phil, myself, you are all recurring guests
on Pop Culture from time to time,
so we have fun there.
And Seamus.
That's a really good point, man.
You know, I've never actually considered that.
Yeah, but the accent insults me. That's fair, too. You know what I've never actually considered that. Yeah, but the accent insults me.
That's fair, too.
You know what?
Let's get him out of here.
He's done.
All right, everybody.
