Starting point is 00:00:01 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.
Starting point is 00:00:12 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.
Starting point is 00:00:42 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.
Starting point is 00:01:08 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.
Starting point is 00:01:27 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.
Starting point is 00:01:38 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?
Starting point is 00:01:44 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 note. Discord is up and running, so you can hop in there right now.

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
Starting point is 00:02:32 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
Starting point is 00:03:10 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,
Starting point is 00:03:28 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.
Starting point is 00:03:35 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.
Starting point is 00:03:54 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
Starting point is 00:04:39 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.
Starting point is 00:05:02 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.
Starting point is 00:05:22 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
Starting point is 00:05:52 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
Starting point is 00:06:25 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
Starting point is 00:06:49 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
Starting point is 00:06:57 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
Starting point is 00:07:04 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
Starting point is 00:07:34 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
Starting point is 00:08:16 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.
Starting point is 00:08:56 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.
Starting point is 00:09:35 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 on deck pull up a seat and check out a wide variety of table games with a live dealer from roulette to blackjack watch as a dealer hosts your table game and live chat with them throughout your experience to feel like you're actually at the casino.

Starting point is 00:10:43 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
Starting point is 00:11:21 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.
Starting point is 00:11:32 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
Starting point is 00:11:49 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,
Starting point is 00:12:09 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.
Starting point is 00:12:19 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
Starting point is 00:12:54 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
Starting point is 00:13:32 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
Starting point is 00:14:00 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
Starting point is 00:14:17 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
Starting point is 00:14:37 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.
Starting point is 00:14:58 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
Starting point is 00:15:26 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,
Starting point is 00:15:55 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
Starting point is 00:16:16 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
Starting point is 00:16:46 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.
Starting point is 00:17:17 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
Starting point is 00:17:53 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
Starting point is 00:18:19 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
Starting point is 00:18:57 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.
Starting point is 00:19:35 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.
Starting point is 00:19:52 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
Starting point is 00:20:20 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.
Starting point is 00:21:05 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
Starting point is 00:21:39 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.
Starting point is 00:22:28 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.
Starting point is 00:23:06 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.
Starting point is 00:23:27 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
Starting point is 00:23:41 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,
Starting point is 00:24:11 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.
Starting point is 00:24:23 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.
Starting point is 00:24:42 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?
Starting point is 00:24:58 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
Starting point is 00:25:19 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
Starting point is 00:26:03 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
Starting point is 00:26:44 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
Starting point is 00:27:06 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.
Starting point is 00:27:49 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,
Starting point is 00:28:01 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.
Starting point is 00:28:17 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.
Starting point is 00:28:31 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
Starting point is 00:28:58 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?
Starting point is 00:29:16 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,
Starting point is 00:29:26 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.
Starting point is 00:29:34 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.
Starting point is 00:29:42 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?
Starting point is 00:29:59 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.
Starting point is 00:30:06 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.
Starting point is 00:30:30 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
Starting point is 00:31:01 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.
Starting point is 00:31:31 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.
Starting point is 00:31:51 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.
Starting point is 00:32:05 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?
Starting point is 00:32:26 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.
Starting point is 00:32:38 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
Starting point is 00:33:11 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.
Starting point is 00:33:38 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
Starting point is 00:34:14 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.
Starting point is 00:34:27 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,
Starting point is 00:34:36 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.
Starting point is 00:34:43 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.
Starting point is 00:34:59 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
Starting point is 00:35:23 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?
Starting point is 00:35:53 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
Starting point is 00:36:24 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
Starting point is 00:36:31 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
Starting point is 00:36:38 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
Starting point is 00:36:52 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
Starting point is 00:37:34 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
Starting point is 00:38:07 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.
Starting point is 00:38:52 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.
Starting point is 00:39:04 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
Starting point is 00:39:39 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?
Starting point is 00:40:24 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?
Starting point is 00:40:55 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
Starting point is 00:41:29 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.
Starting point is 00:41:54 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
Starting point is 00:42:37 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
Starting point is 00:43:05 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.
Starting point is 00:43:45 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,
Starting point is 00:43:54 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.
Starting point is 00:44:05 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.
Starting point is 00:44:47 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
Starting point is 00:44:58 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.
Starting point is 00:45:28 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.
Starting point is 00:45:48 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.
Starting point is 00:46:15 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
Starting point is 00:46:39 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.
Starting point is 00:46:56 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
Starting point is 00:47:21 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
Starting point is 00:48:00 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.
Starting point is 00:49:08 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
Starting point is 00:49:44 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.
Starting point is 00:50:08 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.
Starting point is 00:50:21 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,
Starting point is 00:50:37 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
Starting point is 00:51:05 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
Starting point is 00:51:13 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
Starting point is 00:51:21 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
Starting point is 00:51:39 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.
Starting point is 00:51:52 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
Starting point is 00:52:12 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
Starting point is 00:52:48 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.
Starting point is 00:53:13 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.
Starting point is 00:53:26 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.
Starting point is 00:53:47 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.
Starting point is 00:53:59 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.
Starting point is 00:54:24 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.
Starting point is 00:54:31 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.
Starting point is 00:54:43 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.
Starting point is 00:55:13 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.
Starting point is 00:55:22 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.
Starting point is 00:55:36 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
Starting point is 00:56:01 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.
Starting point is 00:56:38 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?
Starting point is 00:57:09 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.
Starting point is 00:57:26 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.
Starting point is 00:57:41 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.
Starting point is 00:58:06 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.
Starting point is 00:58:21 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.
Starting point is 00:58:31 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
Starting point is 00:58:44 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.
Starting point is 00:59:27 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
Starting point is 00:59:51 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.
Starting point is 01:00:49 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.
Starting point is 01:01:14 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
Starting point is 01:01:36 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,
Starting point is 01:02:08 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,
Starting point is 01:02:31 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?
Starting point is 01:03:17 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
Starting point is 01:03:35 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.
Starting point is 01:03:53 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.
Starting point is 01:04:03 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,
Starting point is 01:04:25 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.
Starting point is 01:04:45 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,
Starting point is 01:05:02 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.
Starting point is 01:05:38 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.
Starting point is 01:06:13 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.
Starting point is 01:06:34 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,
Starting point is 01:06:44 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.
Starting point is 01:06:56 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?
Starting point is 01:07:18 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.
Starting point is 01:07:34 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
Starting point is 01:08:08 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.
Starting point is 01:08:20 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.
Starting point is 01:09:09 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.
Starting point is 01:09:45 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.
Starting point is 01:10:00 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
Starting point is 01:10:09 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
Starting point is 01:10:16 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
Starting point is 01:10:25 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,
Starting point is 01:10:56 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
Starting point is 01:11:13 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...
Starting point is 01:11:30 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.
Starting point is 01:11:43 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,
Starting point is 01:11:54 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.
Starting point is 01:12:24 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.
Starting point is 01:12:41 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
Starting point is 01:12:57 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?
Starting point is 01:13:09 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.
Starting point is 01:13:21 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.
Starting point is 01:13:45 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.
Starting point is 01:13:53 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.
Starting point is 01:14:02 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
Starting point is 01:14:39 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.
Starting point is 01:15:09 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,
Starting point is 01:15:23 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
Starting point is 01:15:54 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.
Starting point is 01:16:16 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.
Starting point is 01:16:28 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
Starting point is 01:16:50 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.
Starting point is 01:17:27 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
Starting point is 01:17:45 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.
Starting point is 01:18:13 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.
Starting point is 01:18:38 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.
Starting point is 01:18:55 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.
Starting point is 01:19:10 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%.
Starting point is 01:19:24 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-
Starting point is 01:19:34 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,
Starting point is 01:19:43 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.
Starting point is 01:19:52 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
Starting point is 01:20:01 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.
Starting point is 01:20:07 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.
Starting point is 01:20:14 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.
Starting point is 01:20:37 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
Starting point is 01:21:07 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
Starting point is 01:21:44 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.
Starting point is 01:22:06 I love your music, man. He'll be like, yeah, we worked really hard on it in MetaWorld. I'll be like, oh, dude,
Starting point is 01:22:13 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.
Starting point is 01:22:19 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
Starting point is 01:22:29 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
Starting point is 01:23:15 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
Starting point is 01:24:11 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
Starting point is 01:24:36 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
Starting point is 01:25:04 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.
Starting point is 01:25:24 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
Starting point is 01:25:54 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.
Starting point is 01:26:13 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.
Starting point is 01:26:29 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
Starting point is 01:26:44 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.
Starting point is 01:26:52 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.
Starting point is 01:27:09 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
Starting point is 01:27:26 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.
Starting point is 01:27:42 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
Starting point is 01:28:19 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.
Starting point is 01:28:38 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
Starting point is 01:28:49 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.
Starting point is 01:29:29 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.
Starting point is 01:29:46 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.
Starting point is 01:29:59 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.
Starting point is 01:30:11 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
Starting point is 01:30:51 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
Starting point is 01:31:23 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?
Starting point is 01:31:47 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,
Starting point is 01:31:55 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,
Starting point is 01:32:00 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,
Starting point is 01:32:06 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,
Starting point is 01:32:12 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?
Starting point is 01:32:18 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
Starting point is 01:32:24 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.
Starting point is 01:32:36 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
Starting point is 01:33:02 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.
Starting point is 01:33:16 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?
Starting point is 01:33:25 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.
Starting point is 01:33:33 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.
Starting point is 01:33:47 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,
Starting point is 01:33:57 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
Starting point is 01:34:22 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.
Starting point is 01:34:49 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
Starting point is 01:35:14 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.
Starting point is 01:35:48 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.
Starting point is 01:36:04 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
Starting point is 01:36:41 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
Starting point is 01:37:13 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.
Starting point is 01:37:32 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.
Starting point is 01:37:45 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.
Starting point is 01:37:53 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,
Starting point is 01:38:04 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.
Starting point is 01:38:28 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.
Starting point is 01:38:40 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.
Starting point is 01:38:53 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,
Starting point is 01:39:03 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.
Starting point is 01:39:32 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
Starting point is 01:39:44 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
Starting point is 01:40:19 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
Starting point is 01:40:57 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
Starting point is 01:41:37 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
Starting point is 01:42:21 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.
Starting point is 01:42:54 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
Starting point is 01:43:16 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!
Starting point is 01:43:34 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.
Starting point is 01:43:54 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
Starting point is 01:44:18 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
Starting point is 01:44:40 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.
Starting point is 01:45:07 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
Starting point is 01:45:29 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
Starting point is 01:46:06 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?
Starting point is 01:46:30 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.
Starting point is 01:47:01 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,
Starting point is 01:47:09 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,
Starting point is 01:47:16 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
Starting point is 01:47:24 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.
Starting point is 01:47:53 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.
Starting point is 01:48:10 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?
Starting point is 01:48:24 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
Starting point is 01:48:43 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.
Starting point is 01:49:02 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.
Starting point is 01:49:14 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
Starting point is 01:49:23 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.
Starting point is 01:49:32 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.
Starting point is 01:49:41 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.
Starting point is 01:49:58 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
Starting point is 01:50:14 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
Starting point is 01:50:38 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.
Starting point is 01:50:54 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.
Starting point is 01:51:06 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!
Starting point is 01:51:22 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.
Starting point is 01:51:38 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.
Starting point is 01:51:49 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?
Starting point is 01:51:56 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.
Starting point is 01:52:04 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
Starting point is 01:52:31 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.
Starting point is 01:52:46 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
Starting point is 01:52:55 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.
Starting point is 01:53:07 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.
Starting point is 01:53:19 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.
Starting point is 01:53:31 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.
Starting point is 01:53:49 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
Starting point is 01:54:06 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
Starting point is 01:54:47 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?
Starting point is 01:55:29 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.
Starting point is 01:55:43 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.
Starting point is 01:55:48 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.
Starting point is 01:55:59 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
Starting point is 01:56:20 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
Starting point is 01:56:45 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.
Starting point is 01:56:52 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
Starting point is 01:57:00 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
Starting point is 01:57:19 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
Starting point is 01:57:31 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
Starting point is 01:57:38 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
Starting point is 01:57:44 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
Starting point is 01:58:24 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.
Starting point is 01:58:40 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.
Starting point is 01:59:19 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
Starting point is 01:59:39 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.
Starting point is 02:00:09 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
Starting point is 02:00:21 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.
