When I used to play Tony Hawk 2, they have that song, Bring the Noise.
Yeah.
And we were literally just before going live, like, rap, because like, we, you know,
one of the lines is like, here we go, it's like how it opens.
Here we go again!
Turn it up!
Yeah.
Bring the noise!
The song's actually really, really bad, especially in today's context.
Yeah.
Because there's a line in it about Farrakhan being a prophet, and like, oof, you gotta
listen to him and stuff.
So I was like, you know, it's funny watching, you know, playing Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2.
I wonder if they're gonna get that song back in the original
soundtrack. Probably. Yeah, probably.
They probably have the rights for it still. For those that aren't familiar,
Tony Hawk is doing a remaster
of the game.
It's going to be, I pre-ordered it. I'm excited for it.
But then I was just like, we're singing the song and I'm like,
yeah, that song's actually really bad. You know what? I don't want to sing those
lyrics anymore, man. Wait a minute.
But hey, you know what?
What's Year Zero? That's like when you erase the culture. Yep. That was a Cambodian thing. those lyrics anymore man wait a minute yeah but hey hey you know what uh what's what's year zero
that's like when you erase the culture yep that was a cambodian thing year zero yeah yeah welcome
to year zero brothers yeah so uh george washington has been canceled i'm a year zero denier okay
all right we'll get into that george washington thomas jefferson and you actually have democrats
in the new York City Council.
They're, I guess they're voting to remove, they want to remove Thomas Jefferson from the New York City Council chamber, I guess. Thomas Jefferson, the drafter of the, I'm sorry,
yes, the Declaration of Independence, the principal author, founding father, U.S. president,
and George Washington now. They threw an American flag over George Washington's head and lit it on fire.
You know what, man?
I'm just going to say it.
I'm going to be bold.
Are you jumping off the fence right now?
Not really.
Well, let's hear what you have to say.
They're attacking the United States.
Okay.
That's it.
They're literally doing it.
Oh, okay.
It's not a policy position or opinion.
It's happening.
You slimy booger.
Yeah. They're attacking our opinion. It's happening. You slimy bugger.
They're attacking our history. They're lying.
It's, you know, basically we let a fox in the
hen house, man. Yep, that's it.
And now you've got people who work in our institutions, people who
hate this country, and
they've been teaching our kids, and they've created a whole
generation of whiny, pathetic losers.
The millennial generation is garbage
for the most part, as far as I'm concerned. I'm a millennial.
I'm allowed to say it.
Cancel them. Get rid of them.
So we actually have a good
smooth transition for all of you.
I hope you like your transition smooth.
We got the George Washington statue story.
Smooth like some good whiskey.
Interestingly enough, man, I'm ashamed
to say it. France.
Macron. Macron was like, you will not tear to say it. France. Macron.
Macron was like, you will not tear down these statues.
Just like that.
Not bad.
Just like that.
Not bad.
Ha ha ha.
He added that.
I don't know why he said it.
He just did.
It's a French thing, I guess.
Yeah.
When did we become weaker than the French?
Over the past 10 years.
I'll tell you what.
First, with all due respect, okay,
France was one of the most powerful empires in the world for a long time.
Yeah.
The Napoleonic Wars, they get credit for this stuff.
But after they got ravaged by World War I,
they kind of just fell over sideways.
Yeah.
You know, cheese-eating surrender monkeys.
And yet, here we go.
And now all of a sudden, we stormed the beaches of Normandy
and we're like, don't worry, France, we got you.
Now, admittedly, the resistance in France, they and we're like, don't worry, France, we got you. Now, admittedly,
the resistance in France,
they were pretty epic.
Yeah.
You know, but still.
Hey, so, yeah,
they helped us win
the Revolutionary War, too,
so we owe them a huge favor.
For sure, man.
I dig France.
I dig France.
I'm just saying,
I'm just saying,
look, look, forgive me,
but America,
you know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
How is France?
Careful, Tim.
What?
Careful, Tim.
You might get canceled
for just being American now.
Being patriotic? Yeah, for sure, dude. I don dude they're man they're so so we have a bunch of stories so so it's this we have like france then then now we're now we're getting into the craziest territory they fired the mom
of the stepmom of the officer in in atlanta yeah they it's like that's that's soviet level that's
like north korea it's like well you committed a crime so your mom is going to jail wow it's like
well she just got fired.
I'm talking about the Soviets.
The extreme of it.
We're getting there.
I'm sorry, but your son is hated
so you're fired.
It's not going to be the first, it's not going to be the last.
I think the Theresa Nielsen is even worse.
Put a pin in that.
We had that story of the
NASCAR driver whose dad said the N-word in the 80s.
Oh, yeah.
Before he was born.
Before he was even born.
So they stripped him of his sponsorship.
Oh, my God.
Amazing.
Welcome to the dark world, whatever.
I don't know what you call it.
But yeah, Teresa Nielsen.
So this is an artist who, this is amazing.
Magic the Gathering is doing a culture revolution purge, man.
It's insane.
She's an artist from going back to, I think, 1997.
Some of the best, if not the best art on magic arts.
Yeah.
Her art is incredible.
Some of my favorite art magic arts were from Therese Nielsen.
Seriously.
And you listening, you're not going to be able to guess what she did to get fired.
You ready for this?
She followed Mike Cernovich.
Yep.
That's it?
Mind blown.
There's a few others that she followed.
Jack Posobiec.
Whoa.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Infowars, I think.
And Infowars, yep.
Those are the three people that they, these were the, look, you follow these three people.
We got to let you go.
The crazy thing about it is there are a bunch of far left activists who follow them as well.
That's OK.
They're the priests.
They're allowed to do it.
Yeah.
Only we can distill the knowledge to you.
The clergy.
You can't actually look at what Mike Cernovich says.
Otherwise, you'll be banned and fired and kicked out.
It's crazy.
That's how they bottleneck information.
So when Cernovich comes out and says something like, I think Cernovich has called for universal
health care in the past.
OK.
I don't want to misquote him, so I could be wrong about that.
But he's had some progressive positions, and he explained it.
They don't want you to know that because he needs to be the boogeyman.
Right.
And not so much him anymore.
It's kind of weird they still bring him up.
It's like they've tried.
It just doesn't really stick.
I mean, there are other people.
But, yeah, they made the announcement that she'll no longer.
She's got some art coming out, and that's it.
Her terminated.
Because Twitter users got mad. They found out she followed these longer. She's got some art coming out. And that's it. Her terminated because Twitter users got mad.
They found out she followed these people.
So you know what, man?
We're going to top it all off with the best.
The best Gen Z is dragging millennials for being pathetic as they should.
And they're correct.
Yeah.
100% kids.
This is for you.
Gen Zers.
We are in complete agreement.
Yep.
You know, my generation is trash.
We talked about what a millennial is in the show.
I think last week. Yeah, I think we. And after that show, someone hit me up and they were like, you know what? I wanted to let you know my generation is trash we talked about what a millennial is in the show i think last week yeah i think we and after that show someone hit me up and they were like you
know what i wanted to let you know adam you're not a millennium and i was like that's the best
news i've had all day amazing why do do tell me and they were like it's it's not just years it's
a it's state of mind and the the the year thing is is so flexible they keep pushing it
back in the 80s but it's like you can push it the other way too sorry you can push both ways
playing tug of war i'm not a millennial i'm not either then i don't feel i am i think millennials
suck i think they're entitled they have no idea what they have and you and none of us screech
none of us here fit the stereotype of what the gen zers say like they think harry potter is a
personality trait you've never actually even read it i've never i don't know what harry potter's
like i know he's got a z on his or a lightning bolt is a lightning bolt okay one of the funniest
things was that i'm pretty sure it was gen z saying this a few years ago like these younger
kids pointing out that all of these protests these these people were making Harry Potter protest signs.
They were saying things like Trump is Voldemort.
And it's like, is that it?
Is that all you get?
You've read one book.
Read a different book, dude.
Yes, please.
The only book they've read.
Read some real stuff.
Some history.
Watch some documentaries.
Dude, I watched some of these TikToks from Gen Z mocking millennials.
Nailed it.
Completely nailed it. And the funny
thing is, I was like, I tweeted this.
I'm like, you realize they're not talking about conservatives.
Conservative millennials are posting frog
memes. They're not getting mocked. Gen Z
isn't mocking people for their frog memes.
No, they're mocking people for their avocado toast
coffee and complaining because someone called them a
naughty word on the internet.
Avocado toast is pretty delicious, but I'm pretty sure everyone can agree avocado toast is pretty good.
Avocados are great.
Yeah.
But it's like this stereotypical hipster urban millennial thing of like.
But when you eat it every single day.
You spend eight bucks on it.
And you start whining and you know $12 or $15 on avocado toast.
If you're not making it yourself, you're a millennial.
Have you seen the deconstructed trend?
Oh my gosh.
No, what's this?
So it's like a hipster thing where you go to the restaurant and you'll be like, I'll
have the deconstructed, you know, omelet.
Oh my gosh.
And it's a tortilla.
It's like they just don't make it.
They just leave it.
So you can get deconstructed sandwiches and it's literally just they give you the ingredients.
Here you go, sir.
That'll be $30, please.
Yes, exactly.
There's also a subreddit called We Want Plates.
Okay.
And it's like a hipster restaurant trend of putting things on random objects.
Like wood.
All right.
Yeah, like there was one a while ago, and I thought it was hilarious because they gave
someone like pancakes with syrup, but it was served on a piece of wood.
So the syrup is pouring off onto the table.
Oh, God. And they're like... What? There's a reason plates are kind of, you know, are concave. pancakes with syrup, but it was served on a piece of wood. So the syrup is pouring off onto the table.
And they're like, there's a reason plates are kind of, you know, are concave.
So that it stays in.
Dude, I think, you know, the 80s were a crazy time.
Whenever I look back to the 80s, that was like the Gen Xers when they were like young or coming in their teens.
You know what?
Yeah, go ahead.
I was going to say like people wore like skin tight hot pants with like hot pink leopard print while roller skating.
And it was a weird thing.
But I'll tell you what, that was a million times cooler than whatever millennials are doing.
Seriously.
I think it's a product of who you grow up around too.
I have a lot of cousins.
Like a lot.
I have like over 40 cousins.
It's crazy. Yeah. A lot of cousins. All, a lot. I have, like, over 40 cousins. It's crazy.
A lot of cousins.
All on my dad's side alone.
Yeah.
So, big family.
But I had a lot of older cousins.
So, growing up in the 80s, I was surrounded by my cousins that were six, seven, eight years older than me.
So, I was surrounded by that crowd.
Very cool.
I was not necessarily raised, but I was certainly influenced by the older generation right before me.
So I think that's kind of why I'm like, what are these millennials thinking?
What are they doing?
You know what I think it is?
I think millennials, the ones that we talk about, they're very active on social media.
They're the members of our generation who are late to the party on the internet.
So I think about, I've been on the internet as long as I've been alive.
My mom had CompuServe through DOS.
You remember the dial-up sound.
Well, yeah.
Most millennials do, though.
Yeah, I do, too.
Most millennials do, but now I'm talking about DOS shell.
You know what DOS shell is?
Just the blinking dot, and you have to alt text everything?
Well, the shell was actually one step beyond the blinking dot and you have to like all text well the shell was actually one step beyond the blinking dot really so the so you had the the command prompt which is the first computers we had
and you went online through typing in you know going to compuServe and then DOS shell gave you
the first like a sort of graphical interface where you could see the list and press down and highlight
them and press enter and I had all the old school games on DOS and then we finally I remember getting
Windows 3.1 so we've had the internet forever yeah and I've always the old school games on DOS. And then we finally, I remember getting Windows 3.1. So we've had the internet forever.
And I've always been online.
And then, you know, it started with chat rooms
and then social media emerged.
AOL.
So I think, you know, for sure.
Yeah, AOL aim.
AOL chat rooms.
The people that I know who were on the internet very early
are all about the spicy memes.
They're all about pranks and silliness and just
jokes and the people i know who weren't because they were like their parents made them go to
soccer practice or whatever and they were like growing up in the suburbs to like you know they
weren't online so when they finally got online they were just like it was like being injected
straight into their veins and they had no tolerance for it yeah and they went insane well and the
difference is like when you get made fun of in school you know there's like a a social aspect that you're used to in in reality like not in the
internet world in the internet realm you know you can feel the nuance of everything you could talk
about it with your friends because they saw it and they're like oh man don't worry that guy was
an a-hole like we got you but on the internet you're on your own you're
you're paddling in this huge ocean of nothingness and it's like if you if that's all you know and
you haven't like gotten thick skin from like some real reality interactions with bullies or because
they're out there they exist and on the internet every bully you. All the bullies are like, it's a small fish.
Eat.
It's time to consume.
I can see it.
If you don't know what you're going in, you're going in blind.
You're going to get eaten.
It's a delirium.
It's a psychosis.
Yeah.
So there's two big ideas that are kind of bubbling up right now about what's wrong with
these millennials and what's going on with social media.
Brett Weinstein talked about this on Twitter and then on the Joe Rogan podcast that
the Chinese interrogation techniques to break an American soldier was really, really brilliant.
They used really low-level incremental tactics. The general idea being, get someone to admit,
in writing, they have to write it themselves, something seemingly innocuous that's negative
about their position.
So the first thing the Chinese would do would say, they would say, OK, if you want food,
we want you to write America is not perfect.
And everyone would be like, of course it's not.
Yeah, that's that's reasonable.
OK, and they write it.
And then from there, you can increment them slowly into writing more and more bad things.
Now, what they would do is they would give them a very tiny reward.
The reason was if they gave them a really big reward, like a big meal,
then the person could rationalize it. I lied in order to get a big reward,
giving them a small reward. The person could write something bad about the United States
and they couldn't justify it because the reward wasn't really worth it. But they did want that
little piece of fruit or something, right? Yeah. If they're starving, I mean.
So this is what one of the things that Brett was talking about.
You take that idea, put it on the internet,
and you have this willful drive towards doing this thing.
But I wonder how much China might actually be involved
in running bot accounts to nudge people,
to make them write these things.
But think about it.
These people keep one-upping themselves,
writing crazier and crazier things,
thinking it's reasonable,
because they're getting a tiny reward. It's not that big of a deal. It's a few likes, it's a few retweets. So every day they one-upping themselves, writing crazier and crazier things, thinking it's reasonable because they're getting a tiny reward.
It's not that big of a deal.
It's a few likes.
It's a few retweets.
Yeah.
So every day they one-up it.
And now they've driven themselves insane.
The other thing that's been going around, someone sent me this, that there is a dopamine
addiction stimulant.
It's a social media stimulant effect.
Yep.
Where every time you check your phone, you get a dopamine hit.
Especially when they smash the like button.
Smash, smash, smash.
That's a good thing though.
It's a bad thing.
But it is too.
No, I'm dead serious.
It's like you get it.
Oh, they like my post.
A thousand people like my post.
Think about how we quantify
how many viewers we have,
how many likes we have.
I know.
How many super chats.
Yeah.
And I'll tell you what, man.
You can see it in YouTubers when they have low mental fortitude.
And it's most of them.
It's almost all of them, to be honest.
One day, like, look at their...
Wait till some YouTuber has a breakdown where they're like,
I just don't know if I keep doing this bad.
And then look at their view count.
And their view count the days before will be in a downward slope.
Yeah.
So what happens is they'll work really hard.
They'll make a video.
They'll get a million views. The next
day, 700,000. The next day, 500.
And then by day three, they're at 400. And the next
day, they're like, I'm quitting. I can't do this
anymore. And they talk about all
these things that have nothing to do with what's really happening.
They're not getting
the dopamine hit. Their addiction is not getting satisfied.
But here's what they ended up
saying in this thread that I was sent.
When these people, these millennial social justice types, open up their phone to get that hit of dopamine,
they need to put out a tweet that's going to give them those clicks, that attention, those likes.
So they're one-upping themselves.
And now this comes into the Chinese manipulation technique.
But every time they open up their phone and do it, two things are happening.
One, they're radicalizing themselves.
Two, they're building their addiction.
And so the delirium idea is going on. I don't call it a theory because I don't know if these people are doctors.
Is that when you're on stimulants nonstop, it really fries your brain and like builds up aggression and like intolerance.
Well, there's, yeah, there's literally a tolerance to any kind of
drug i think you can have dopamine exhaustion like you can just get too much and then you're like
completely like numb to it so i wonder if that's part of what's happening well what they were
saying is that basically it's a psychosis when you when you do stimulants too often all the time
yeah and you get so much dopamine released you start going insane
well then you think about the average diet you know like how much sugar the average you know
person consumes it's like sugar is the same thing this is a reward system that like oh i let me have
a treat and something sugary you know and the brain gets like, ooh, yeah, that's a reward.
So wait, wait.
Ooh, I got likes.
It's the same thing.
So I did a segment the other day about this woman who firebombed some Philadelphia police
vehicles.
Okay.
FBI caught her.
Wow.
Because she's a moron.
Oh, I saw this.
Right, right, right.
So this woman.
Through Etsy, right?
Through Etsy and her tattoo.
But through Etsy.
Okay.
So she was wearing a shirt that said something like, keep the immigrants, deport the racists.
Okay.
So they did a search for the shirt, found out that it was fairly unique, found a review
on the seller.
Oh, wow.
With this person's name.
No way.
And they tracked the person, found photos, eventually found a photo with the tattoo,
and they're like, boom, we got her.
Wow.
What's amazing about that is that I am unimpressed with the FBI's ability to do that.
Okay. Because I've been doing that with the FBI's ability to do that.
Because I've been doing that since the inception of the internet.
Seriously.
That's a good point.
No, like when I worked for Vice, I would show people how to do basic internet investigations and sleuthing.
I used to do this trick where whenever I would meet someone and we were doing some kind of
business deal, I would like ask them their name.
And then while they were talking, I would pull up all their private information.
I would dox them in real time. And then what I would say ask them their name. And then while they were talking, I would pull up all their private information. I would dox them in real time.
And then what I would say is this,
I'd be after they talked and introduce themselves,
I'd be like,
right on,
right on,
man.
Well,
well,
hey,
I'll tell you what,
tonight we have a party.
I don't know if you want to come.
You have time.
It's not gonna be too crazy.
It's gonna be kind of a get together.
And they go,
yeah,
where's it at?
And I'll be like,
one,
two,
three,
fake street in,
you know,
North Hollywood,
California.
And they go,
what?
And then I'll be like,
yeah,
that's where the party's at.
And they'll be like,
that's my address. And I'm like, I know it is. And And they go, what? And then I'll be like, yeah, that's where the party's at. And they'll be like, that's my address.
And I'll be like, I know it is.
And they're like, what?
You creeper.
And I would do it.
It's kind of like to show you.
But this was particularly when I was doing more programming stuff.
That's a little creepy, though.
Oh, totally.
Absolutely.
It was funny.
Funny and creepy.
But this was back when I was hanging out at Hacker Spaces.
Lydia agrees.
Yeah, that's a little creepy.
No, no, no. Yeah, well, when I first started talking to Tim, he basically did that to me.
Whoa.
Yeah.
He was like, oh, I want to learn all about you.
So he got me talking, and I was talking about stuff, and he's like, oh, I'm hanging out
right now.
And I was like, oh, okay.
I guess I'm hired or whatever.
This is back when I used to hang out at Hacker Spaces.
Okay.
And so I'll tell you what, man.
These people know what you're thinking.
I'm sure. There was one time where this one guy, we're sitting at a party and he, and he, he,
he's talking to a bunch of people and he goes and he points over to a man and a woman. Okay.
And then he started, he started predicting everything they would do. And it was perfect.
He would be like in three seconds, the girl's going to laugh three, two, and then she laughs
and everyone starts. And then we all start laughing. It was now the guy is going to shift his shoulders and turn towards her three, two, and then she laughs. And then we all start laughing. Now the guy is going to shift his shoulders and turn towards her.
Three, two, and then he does.
Wow.
Because these guys were social engineers,
and he was explaining all of the really obvious stereotypical behaviors these people do.
Yeah.
But anyway, not to get too much into that.
The point I was bringing up is that you have this very predictable behavior with the Internet.
You have people who are becoming addicted to getting this hit yep they're literally going insane and now to go back to the woman who got caught by the fbi
she in the photos they found was a normal looking woman and i started thinking about i mentioned
this in the video that there's a meme that's called something like feminism not even once
remember those those meth ads it was like methamphetamine not even once.
No, I don't.
It would show a picture of a regular person.
Okay.
And then it would show them after they were like drug addled and messed up.
Their teeth are gone.
So people started making memes where it was like feminism not even once.
And it shows these people before they go to college and afterwards.
And it is terrifying.
Like de Blasio's daughter?
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah. That's some big change. Where they're like smiling and normal and wearing is terrifying like de Blasio's daughter yes yeah yeah that's some where
they're like big smiling and normal and wearing regular clothes like this and the next one is
their heads are all shaved and they're like snarling at the camera like weird freaky people
golems golems yeah and so you have this this woman with the firebomb it's so sad because it's it's
i've seen so much of this the the photo they found of her was a normal young woman. And the pictures of her in Philadelphia was nightmarish.
Wow, really?
Nappy, like smashed dreads, like huge belly and just like hunched over.
Yeah.
No, dude, like 30 or 40 pounds heavier.
You're being nice.
Just like, just, and I was like, I'm not saying this to be mean to her.
Right.
But this looks like a before and after of a drug addict.
And the crazy thing is a lot of these people are, but a lot of them aren't.
It's something happening to them that's transforming their brains into like, it's withering their brain.
I think there's, I don't think it's just the social justice at the universities, like they're being indoctrinated.
I think that plays a role in making them in radicalizing them but i think it has a lot to
do with their addiction to social media it's almost like and probably other things so someone
in the chat just said it's probably adderall too yeah i was like oh that's a good point you go to
oh i know a lot of people that went to college that they're like i would not have made it through
all the studying staying up all night without whatever they were on but i'll tell you what man the people
i know so i used to hang out at the columbia dorms in chicago okay and i knew a lot of regular people
a lot of them today have gone insane and are like drug addled and all that stuff and it was because
they were taking adderall for sure yep a lot of them were but it was because they were taking Adderall, for sure. Yep, a lot of them were. But it was because they wanted to do it all.
They wanted to go out and party and do their homework.
Instead of being like, I can't go out today, guys.
I got to do my homework.
They'd be like, I'll go out.
I'll just take a pill.
And then they, like, you know what, man?
It's probably a bit esoteric.
But for those of you that are fans of World of Warcraft, it reminds me of the Nightborne Elves.
Their story is that they became addicted to a magic well.
And then when the magic, like, long story short, when the magic was taken from them,
a bunch of them slowly started to wither and become mindless, like, shriveled up and like,
run around, like, just brain dead.
Zombies.
Yeah, but it's, you know, it's the same thing for the Blood Elves, too.
But that's just the basic idea about drug addiction and withdrawal.
Okay.
These people have been addicted to the stimulant of social media their brains are hooked to it they you know you know let me tell you something bro i was working on an app with a buddy of mine
years ago and the goal the idea for the app was whenever you check your time on your phone whenever
you click it to see what time it is you would would be served a news story. And so it was a news
delivery app for your lock screen. Okay. And when the idea was brought up to me by my buddy, I said,
I mean, that's a cool idea, but don't we already have notifications? And he was like, yeah,
but typically the notifications you get are few and far between. This is specifically a news story
whenever you check your phone. And I was like, yeah, but come on, what do you take your phone
like two or three times a day? And he goes 140.
Yeah.
Is the average?
The average person is like 140.
140.
140 times they check their phone.
And he was like, so what we do is every 10th viewing is an advertisement.
And so then we're getting 14 ads per person per day.
And that's huge.
Yeah, that's insane.
And I was like, whoa.
So we ended up making a whole company based on that.
We did our project together, but news was like we never actually had any ads in it.
Okay.
But him telling me that like we looked, it's over, and yep, it's like 140 times per day people will check their phones.
Wow.
That is an addiction.
Then you throw in what these people on Twitter are doing, and it's really obvious why.
They're addicted.
They need it.
They need those buttons.
They need those likes.
That's true.
So now you have this one dude.
What's his name?
Palmer.
What's his name?
You know, Palmer Report, whatever.
Oh, Palmer Report guy.
Yeah.
Literally did a Twitter thread saying it's time to reeducate conservatives.
Oh, man.
Because they're going insane.
They're addicted.
They have a stimulant hooked to their brain.
Wow.
Pinging that dopamine over and over and over again.
And now they're literally going to the point where they're like, burn it all down and lock them in camps.
Because if you want to get the shares,
you can't post the same thing you posted yesterday.
It's true.
You got to one-up yourself over and over and over again.
And now they're at the point of complete absurdity.
Nothing makes sense.
Everything's breaking down.
You got politicians who are listening to this.
Could you imagine if your politicians were like,
I hear what you're saying, homeowner and entrepreneur,
but I'm going to take the advice from the drug addict.
You'd be like, but that person is unwell.
So now you've got 70.
It's 2% of the population that are active on Twitter.
2%?
2%.
Right.
Now, 22% of the population has a Twitter account.
Okay.
Think about the 78% of regular people who have nothing to do with Twitter and don't
even know what's going on
That's the people I refer to all the time
The people who are going to show up to Philly
with baseball bats like, don't tear down our statue
Wait, people are tearing down statues?
No, no, no
That's it, we're going out there
Are they coming to our town?
It's going to happen
It's happening already
So now we should probably jump over to the actual first segment
Oh sure, sure.
It's a perfect chance to.
Let's just, don't we have anything brought up about the Gen Z?
I mean.
Well, no, no, no.
George Washington being, and we'll work through it.
We'll get to the Gen Z.
The Gen Z stuff is more silly and making fun of avocado toast.
Oh, I know.
But I feel like we did a lot of quality talk about that.
I don't want to lose what we've said.
We really have set the groundwork for a lot of that exact
conversation that we're going to have. But this is the conversation.
This tearing down of statues and the
destruction of our history. I mean, you're right.
It all comes
together. It's all
a product of this same
thing. The thing about the article I have on Gen Z
is it doesn't talk about addiction at
all. It doesn't talk about, it's literally
Gen Z saying millennials are dumb and they read
Harry Potter.
So it's like.
So we basically, we basically went and did it already.
No, no, no, no, no.
But I want to read you their actual jokes.
Okay.
But that's supposed to be the cherry on top.
Okay.
Of the cherry.
Yeah, we're going to talk about the serious nature of these people have gone so insane.
Check this out.
You've probably already seen it.
You probably heard a lot about this.
George Washington statue is covered in a burning American flag before being toppled by up to
40 Portland protesters in Oregon.
And I think they got to look at this.
These genocidal colonists.
Yeah.
Oh, and then there it is.
F cops.
1619 spray painted on the statue.
Oh, that makes me mad.
And that's exactly the point 1619
is fake news yep it's that addiction the desperate attempt to get more recognition to get retweets to
get comments win prizes win yeah win prizes man prize yeah so the 1619 thing is they're they're
literally trying to argue that the u.s is is a slavocracy, that the country was founded.
Its true inception was 1619 when the first slave came.
And that is such insane BS.
Yep.
Because there's so many points at which you can claim the real country emerged or whatever.
But the founding fathers were, for one, a product of their time.
Many of them opposed it.
That's true.
I think many of them didn't do enough, and they compromised for sure. And there's no defense for slavery. But they laid the groundwork for
something important that helped get rid of this. And then there were a bunch of really famous
abolitionists who use that framework to win and justify their positions. But the issue here with
George Washington being toppled over is that I think with this addiction,
I think it was Jordan Peterson who pointed this out.
We know when the right goes too far.
We don't have a point at which the left has gone too far.
And it seems like they're trying to find that.
I mean, this is it, man.
I think we've reached it.
I agree.
This is insane.
The problem is the left owns the cultural institutions yep
you're right it's really funny when i when i tell uh my like a lot of my regular normie friends this
they're like what are you talking about donald trump's the president and i'm like what is what
can what has trump gotten done brock obama created created daca under executive order okay and then
trump tried repealing it under executive order and they said he can't do it. It's illegal. It's like, so Obama can make it through executive.
But what?
That makes sense.
No, it doesn't.
So they write their arguments.
They try to justify it.
But I'm like, listen, man, I get that Trump's the president.
That's legit.
I mean, that gives him a lot of power.
The Republicans are in the Senate.
They're not doing anything.
But come on, man.
If they can tear down a statue of George Washington, and where's Don Lemon?
Where's Chris Cuomo?
Why isn't a single Democrat coming out and saying destroying the visage of our first president is wrong?
Right.
They hate it.
Because they don't care.
Yeah.
Because they're addicts, and they're like, whatever you say, it's like they're taking their cues from drug-addled maniacs
who are scratching their faces off.
So this is where it gets even crazier.
Look, I get it, man. Look.
You get a bunch of dumb kids, they're going to tear down some statues.
Alright?
We can say, okay, okay,
the kids are playing a dumb game, they're addicted,
they're on social media, but it really does reach
that crazy point right here.
NY City Council members call for Thomas Jefferson Jefferson statue to be removed from City Hall.
That's not the kids anymore.
It's not the kids anymore, man.
No, it's not.
The drug addicts are now in our government.
So let me ask you something.
Based on the conversation, so for those that may be just popping into the segment,
the gist of it was that people use their phones way too much, creating an addiction,
and they constantly have to tweet things to one-up themselves to satisfy that addiction.
So their rhetoric gets more and more extreme until they're tearing down statues and
screaming for revolution.
And it makes no sense.
This is why nothing they fight for makes sense.
It's why they're always eating each other and contradicting each other,
because it's just an addiction to get something.
But they have the gist of this mental addiction
and how it's withering away their
brains and their prefrontal cortex. Could you imagine if we created a government where one
party was just completely meth-addled and one party was just like regular working class people?
No, I can't.
You'd have a bunch of drug-addled people being like, I don't know, I think we got to raise taxes
because I need meth. You know what I'm saying? Like, we should knock down the statues. We should
melt them down and sell it because I need meth. You'd be like'm saying? Like, we should knock down the statues. We should melt them down and sell it
because I need meth.
You'd be like, dude, those things won't help us.
That's destroying our country.
But you have a large portion of people
all scratching and, you know, demanding drugs.
No, they wouldn't say that.
They would be going and taking the lobbying money.
Like, oh, yeah, well, I'm fighting for this.
I'm fighting for this.
But because I just got paid from this person
who is paying me a lot of money to fight for what they want.
And then you have the like you have like Nancy Pelosi and she'd walk into a room and be like, well, you know, the young people really like meth.
So we're going to get on our knees and, you know, inject it straight up.
Like, just do whatever the young people want.
Well, I guess if they're doing it, we should do it, too.
Cool. Yeah.
Just give them what they want because they're desperately trying to win.
And then they start compromising where Joe Biden's like, you know, the thing with, you
know, meth is that, you know, I'll do a little bit, but not too much.
That's literally what's happening with Biden.
Only do it on the weekends.
The compromising with, you know, like for the Democrats to compromise with what these
activists represent
would be straight up like them saying okay we'll take a little bit of your addiction
like you're unwell you're completely ignorant to history and you're violent yeah you know what
we'll incorporate a little bit of that into uh into our party now the republicans are just
standing there i don't know what they're doing who knows yeah they're they're probably addicted to in the the other way around because if you think about it
we weren't ready for social media right we talked about this yeah so government is wasn't ready for
social media easy they're all humans they're all in in social media now they're they're seeing these
people that are tweeting at them and they're getting the addiction also from these crazy people that are like propping them up like wow you're our
champion except social media bans the ones who get too addicted the conservatives who go too far
in their addiction get banned but not on the left not on the left right so it's there it is right
exactly so we so what's happening the republican Party is they're kind of just standing around
with their thumbs up their bum like they've always been doing.
I've never had any any, you know, I've never cared much for the Republican Party.
They've not been involved that group, you know, in a city that was run by Democrats.
Yeah.
But the Democrats are increasingly allowed to embrace this insanity because the people
who run Twitter or Twitter are the dealers, man.
It's true.
They're progressive.
They're the dealers.
And they don't want to ban their own ideas.
They don't want to ban their friends.
So they've created this drug addiction, this technological addiction that's melting the
brains of these people.
Yep.
And the drug addicts are screaming, ban the conservatives.
So they do.
Yep.
And that leaves you with some addicted conservatives for sure, but they're kept in check. Yep. And that leaves you with, it leaves you with some, you know, addicted conservatives for sure,
but they're kept in check.
Yep.
They can't go too far and they know it.
So sometimes a conservative will overdose.
Someone on the right will, it's the equivalent of social media ODing.
They know how much they can get away with.
Like what's the dosage of spicy memes you can post before you finally come for you and you're done,
you're digitally dead.
So conservatives don't cross that line anymore.
The left has no line.
They've literally called for violence.
There's actually a Twitter account that was for the George Washington statue.
A Twitter account gave the address and said, let's go do it.
Facebook, there's someone sent me this picture from Facebook of someone killing a cop with a knife to the throat i was like what did i
just see that now i didn't see it on twitter or on facebook myself so i don't know but people are
like how is this allowed what are we seeing someone you know the we were talking about
yesterday the the antifa fist right gripping the snake and we brought it up it was like it was
actually a nazi thing and it's like, look, it's the same thing.
Someone posted it on Facebook.
Banned.
So the context for that is, you know the Gadsden flag.
It's the coiled snake.
Don't tread on me.
The far left took the revolution fist, which is like this.
It's actually, I believe it's the Spanish communist symbol from the Spanish Civil War.
Okay.
And now it's been appropriated by a bunch of other leftist groups.
They put the fist strangling the Gadsden snake.
Somebody brought this up to me that there's actually that's actually Nazi iconography.
There was a Nazi propaganda of an arm strangling a snake.
And so we were making the point that if they're going to claim Trump's triangle is Nazi, then
why aren't they?
Right, exactly.
Well, Facebook banned trump and banned
the showing the comparison of the the nazis the nazi iconography so they get they get away with
it yep and then the democrats are looking at their constituents and what do they see lunatics
i think it's i think trump should not have won in 2016 no absolutely not no no i'm not saying like
he didn't deserve to win i'm saying that by all statistics and the will of the people, he shouldn't have,
except for the fact that social media allows lunatics on the left to get away with whatever they want.
So regular people were turned off, and it gave Trump the little tiny boost he needed.
Because he did win by a decent electoral margin,
but there were many states where he won by only a few thousand votes,
maybe like 7,000 to 10,000 votes.
Wow. You get enough people who are on social media or are seeing this stuff and they're
just like these people are insane that's why i don't believe it today you know that they're
saying that trump is going to lose i can't i can't believe it maybe it's true i don't believe it that
he's going to lose yeah we're we're in a blue state, right? A blue area. We're in heavy
blue. Heavy blue.
I walked around the neighborhood. I haven't seen
any Democratic signs. I saw
Trump signs around our neighborhood.
I saw the bumper sticker.
They're out there.
We're in a blue area.
I'm really surprised.
Surrounded by Trump supporters.
The area we are in
isn't just a blue area. It is like, I don't know. The area we are in isn't just a blue area.
Okay.
It is like, this district will never go Republican.
Yeah, for sure.
Will never happen.
Okay.
Yeah.
People said Trump would never get elected president.
That's why I'm saying the severity of you seeing Trump signs is like, whoa.
Yeah, and they're not afraid.
We're in the Philly suburbs.
Yeah, dude.
And there are red areas over here.
We're very close to Jeff Van Drew,
who was a Democrat and turned into a Republican.
Oh, okay, right.
Which is another point to be made.
He ran as a moderate Democrat
and then switched because he saw the signs.
He saw the crazy eyes.
Literally signs, yeah.
The crazy eyes.
We're in an area that it's not as bad as, Ocasio-Cortez's district because I think she's
D plus 30, meaning like that's huge. But Philly was 82% Democrat voters in the 2016 election.
Like it's not going to happen here. However, if you're seeing Trump signs in this neighborhood,
I had a conversation with a local guy last year and it was kind of weird because he was an anti-Trump leftist.
It was obvious, but he was being polite.
Like, he lived in the area, and we were talking.
We talked for quite some time, and then he started saying things that were very obviously leftist talking points.
A lot of it was fake news.
And I was very polite and had to navigate those things very carefully because I can't just be like,
that's completely wrong.
What are you talking about?
Do you believe that libtard, blah, blah, blah?
Yeah, because you will trigger their emotional defense system.
Right.
So I just said, you know, I'm tactful and respectful.
And I said, well, no, you saw the update on that one, right?
That story about Trump.
Actually, it turned out to be this.
And then he goes, oh, really?
And I was like, oh, yeah.
And I just pulled my phone.
I'm like, yeah, check it out.
He was like, oh.
It's the best way to do it.
But he was talking a bunch of stuff about Hillaryary and trump being you know a nazi and
all this stuff to and that was that i mean dude we're in a blue we're in with this blue town man
this is this is like 82 the philly area and this guy was talking about this for you to now walk
around the neighborhood and see trump signs and trump stickers i can't you know uh we saw that
trump flag in the middle of the lake.
Yeah, seriously.
Yeah, it's determination.
That's crazy.
And there's no docks or anything.
Right, like how did they do it?
They either waited out there or brought a boat and something.
Maybe, who knows?
I wouldn't even call it a lake.
An inflatable.
I would call it like a scum pond.
Waste water, yeah.
Yeah, it's like, it's a shopping center.
Not nice.
With just like a small
body of water full of trash and somebody found a way to mount a trump sign in the middle of that
thing so yeah i'm seeing i'm seeing rhetoric from the trump supporters but i gotta tell you man
you know what maybe it's just hubris but there's a part of me that says when they tore down a
statue of thomas jefferson that was a declaration of war on everything the average American believes in.
It is these internet drug addicts.
They've gone insane.
They think they're the majority, but they're like 1% of the population.
Man, I'd be willing to bet if you go to any house in Philly proper, any apartment, knock on the door, guy comes out.
What do you think about Thomas Jefferson?
This is Philadelphia.
That's true.
Thomas Jefferson?
Yeah, man.
He's all right, dude.
Yeah.
He's all right.
What do you think about Ben Franklin?
Yeah, good dude.
George Washington?
Dude, we have the Liberty Bell here, man.
Right.
This is Philadelphia.
Yeah.
This is the founding father's town. These men wrote the groundwork that opened up civil rights to be had in the future.
Whether it was on purpose or not, you want to have the argument?
Fine.
But I was watching this video from PragerU about Frederick Douglass.
Okay.
And one of his arguments was he's a very, very famous abolitionist, born a slave, became free.
And he said something about, you know, will the American people have the will to live up to their own constitution?
And they were pro-slavery people who were like, harumph!
But he got them.
He's like, I got you.
You got to admit it.
It says right there we're all equal, are we or not?
Yep.
That was the beauty of what the Founding Fathers wrote, whether they intended it or not.
And I think they did intend it.
I was reading about the rebuttal to the 1619 Project.
Historians actually writing about the attitudes.
And I looked up a bunch of other sources from before the whole controversy.
And they all seemed to back up the general idea that although the Founding Fathers were slave owners, many of them detested it.
And so for like Thomas Jefferson, he actually inherited many of them.
And then he
wrote publicly he tried to get he i believe he did get it banned internationally he stopped the
importing of slaves and so he was working to do what he could to actually stop it yeah did he do
enough i'd argue he could have done more i don't know what it was like back in the 1700s 1800s
yeah but that's that's always the argument everyone always thinks that oh well you could
have done more.
You're someone other than me.
I don't want to do anything.
Right.
You can do more.
They didn't do more.
I'm screeching at you now.
It's like that's this whole thing that we're – screeching has become the norm instead of accountability for your own actions.
Well, I just mean, look, Thomas Jefferson did a lot of really, really great things. Yeah.
Yeah. He was a slave owner. And there were abolitionists at the time. And there were people who were fighting for freedom. And yeah, there could have been more done.
And I bet a lot of these people out there don't even do the research to know who those people are.
Oh, for sure. Absolutely. Like tear down the statues. And then what?
They tore down a statue of a guy who was a staunch abolitionist.
Yep.
I think they defaced it.
I don't know if they tore it down.
I can't remember the guy's name.
I was reading it.
It was a bunch of conservatives posting it.
They were saying that people didn't know anything about the statue other than he was a colonist.
And it was like he would buy and free slaves and fought really, really hard to end it actively.
And they deface it.
And it's like you have no idea what you're talking about, man.
Yeah, they don't.
They're trying to get a statue of Abraham Lincoln torn down.
The great emancipator.
You want to criticize Lincoln?
The Republicans were 100% anti-slavery.
It was a new party at the time, and they were like, no.
Yeah, the Democrats.
The Democrats are the ones that wanted to keep it around.
Yeah. You know what's weird about the Democratic Party? It's insane. And the Democrats are the ones that wanted to keep it around. Yeah.
You know what's weird about the Democratic Party?
And the Democrats are the ones trying to get rid of Thomas Jefferson.
And get rid of the Civil Rights Act in California.
What's that going on over there?
Dude.
They want to be able to discriminate again?
Democrats in California have officially voted to repeal the civil rights legislation.
It went through.
Through the assembly.
Wow.
Now it goes to the Senate.
And then I guess it'll be, I don't know if it'll be voted on or ratified or however it works in California.
But the assembly Democrats in California, basically their version of the House, have passed it.
60 to 14.
Why would they want to discriminate against it?
That's insane.
The bill literally does one thing.
What's that?
It strikes through the entire non-discrimination legislation of Prop 209.
Wow.
So I send this to my friends, and they're absolutely confused by it because the Democrats
know how dumb people are.
They titled it the Affirmative Action Amendment.
Wow.
Yep.
So I sent it to a friend of mine who lives in California, and I said, if this actually it's ratified, I will never set foot in California
again. I was like, cause I do not want to be made an example of based on my race. And, and they said,
but affirmative action, you have to understand. And I said, Whoa, Whoa, hell stop. Stop.
What about affirmative action? Yeah. Did you read the bill? Yeah. I'm like, okay, well,
the bill has nothing to do with affirmative action. Right. It literally says that it will, you know, this bill or provision will remove Section 31, Chapter 1 of the California Constitution.
And then it shows you all the text that will be removed.
And it literally says the state shall not, you know, discriminate nor provide preferential treatment on the basis of race, color, ethnicity, sex, national origin.
That's messed up.
They're removing that.
That's insane.
That is a mirror to the 1964 Civil Rights Act federally.
So I sent it to a bunch of my lefty friends.
Like, I want you to explain this to me.
One of them said affirmative action.
And when I tried breaking it down like no no no that's just
the title of the bill did you read what the bill does yeah it makes it so that affirmative action
is in schools and i said no no no read what the bill says and they were like i don't understand
what you're saying it says affirmative action i'm like that's the title get past the title
you're not smart open the book they can't open the book read the book not the title. You got this. They're not smart enough. Open the book. They can't do that. Open the book. Read the book.
Not the title of the book.
Right.
Open the book.
Read it.
Just read the cover.
So I have another friend, and we were talking about political ideologies, and I said, the
problem with the political compass is that me and everyone I know are left libertarian.
The difference is I'm anti-identitarian, and you can't see ideology on a political compass. And so my friend was like,
I said, because of this, I reject most of the policies of the progressives and the Democrats.
We started having a conversation and I sent them a link to the ballotpedia bill saying they're
revoking civil rights legislation. And they responded with, you know, the thing about
affirmative action. And I said, hold on, let me stop you right there. You have to read past the title.
Yeah.
Right.
No offense.
And then guess what they said next.
I don't need to.
No, no, no, no.
This one's better than that.
Oh, great.
Oh, boy.
It's better than that.
It's good.
Oh, OK.
Oh, geez.
What?
This is weird.
Oh, good.
Yes.
Yep.
Thank you.
That makes me feel so much better.
A little glint of hope in humanity.
Right.
Because there are good natured people who are being fed fake news.
Yeah.
And they don't see this stuff.
And so I said, can you explain what I'm supposed to do in the face of this?
And it's like...
No.
No.
And I was like, yeah, now you know why I'm actively resisting these people.
Yeah.
The Republicans kicked out...
Steve King lost his primary, right? Oh yeah they it's like dude hard against steve king tweets about white nationalism
and they get rid of the guy in two seconds they even they're being accused now of of licking the
boots of black lives matter because the conservatives are not far right fringe extremists
yep they're like mostly moderate at this point.
They're still in the bell curve of the
average person. They're actually pretty close
to the center and moving left. Yeah.
It's shifting. Yeah.
And there are scary problems with
that and that they won't stand up against
people tearing down the sedges of George Washington.
Yeah. Yeah. Dude, I, man,
I would love, you know what I want to do?
Here's what I want to do all right
smash the like button um you guys should smash the like button also don't forget we're doing
the meme contest later we didn't mention that oh we haven't but here's what i want to do
i would love to pay for any one of these people to go to any one of these places they claim is
really really horrible i'll pay for your trip there i actually proposed this to somebody a
long time ago i said that you know we were arguing on Facebook about all of these
different, you know, political issues and places. And I said, I'll tell you what, have you ever been
to any one of these places? And they said, no. And I said, how would you like it if I paid everything
and sent you there? Let me know what you need. If you think you need
security, I will hire you security. If you think
you want a camera to film it, I will get someone to film
you. And ultimately
they back out. Of course.
I have a friend in Chicago
who's posting all this crazy stuff about how
racist white people are and just
the whole line. And I said, alright
bro, I'll tell you what man.
Would you want to do a project with
me where we walk through k-town it's on the south side of chicago immediately stops responding on
facebook of course immediately just stops responding on messenger you know what you know
you know what would happen if you walked through like man i'm not going to mention some of these
gangs but if one of these scrawny you know little uh lefty progressive dudes that I know from Chicago that I've known for a long time, they know what happens when you walk through that neighborhood.
Let me tell you a quick story.
I lived on the south side, eventually moved to the suburbs, and I'm skating in the suburb of Glen Ellyn.
It's good fun.
Suburb's way different from the south side of Chicago, man.
We were rough and tumble.
That's night and day different.
Night and day.
Glen Ellen's a tiny little spot.
Glen Ellen is like expensive houses, suburbs.
It's nice.
Right by Wheaton.
My cousin used to live there.
And you're miles away from your friend's house.
Yeah, that's like an hour outside of Chicago easy.
So let me tell you about Southside.
I mentioned this before.
A couple miles from my house, my buddy calls me one night and says, I'm watching someone drag a carpet with
feet sticking out of it in his alley. Literally. I'm like, yeah. So not that far away in suburbs.
I'm talking to my buddy. I got, I got, I got, it was, it was my second car ever Dodge neon.
And I'm like, let's go skate in the city. We're going to go to, I think the Wilson skate park.
So I like driving down Roosevelt straight from, because it goes from Glen Ellyn.
It goes straight into the city.
Oh, cool.
And then Roosevelt's like 12 south.
So you do go to the south side.
So we do this.
And then I decided to turn left on some street.
I can't remember what it was.
Probably Halstead or something.
Maybe Harlem.
And the dude started hyperventilating.
Really?
When he realized where we were. Whoa. And I'm laughing. And he was like, why are. And the dude started hyperventilating. Really? When he realized where
we were. Whoa. And I'm laughing. And he was like, why are we here, dude? What are you doing?
I'm like, bro, we're driving. We're fine. And I'm like, the only thing you got to know is
when you pull up to a car at a red light, you don't pull up real close. You leave a full car
length. Yeah. Because what they do is once you get boxed in, they run up to your car and mug you.
Oh, it seems fine. That's why you always leave a full car length. So if Because what they do is once you get boxed in, they run up to your car and mug you. Oh, that seems fine. That's why you always
leave a full car length. So if you see someone up to your car, you
speed out and go for it. I was like, we're going to be
fine, bro. But he was freaking out.
So now this was somebody
who was from the suburbs who knew the
reality of the city of Chicago and the gun violence,
Chirac and all that stuff. And he was not
happy about me taking like I'm from the
city, dude. I'm, you know, and I
know people who are way more reckless than I was. my my ultra progressive friends in the city i'd be like
straight up man i tell you what come with me to the south side where i grew up we'll go for a walk
how does it sound gone huh won't respond radio silence they know yep they virtue signal on
facebook all this time but they they like they like to say things like only white people are
racist it's like oh yeah you want you want to take a trip with me to like these certain neighborhoods man
and you want i'll give you a lesson on on racism yeah chicago is a very very horrifyingly racist
place it's segregated it's it's it's it's nasty yeah so it's not it's it's not even about
it's it's it's just bad neighborhoods yeah it honestly feels like there's an era of a war on white people right now.
It's like, if you're white, you're just wrong.
Well, the argument is that...
Your pure existence is offensive and racist.
It's been that way for a long time.
It's been growing in comedy.
And it starts with white people recognizing that, you know, I think this
was probably, you know, following civil rights. You're in a dominant position, you know. There's,
I don't think it's fair to call it white privilege. I think it's majority privilege,
and there's generational wealth and a bunch of other factors that play a role in it.
But you started getting self-deprecating comedians who it's fine to make fun of white people because you are white
and now it's evolved into everybody pile on the white people all the time and anything else is
offensive right and now it's getting twisted and weird where uncle ben uncle ben rice it was
literally it's an it's a picture of a farmer yeah from uh He was a farmer in 1946. That's the image they used.
He's got to go, Mr. Clean, the white dude, shaved head, he's all right.
That's how weird it's getting.
It is weird.
It's all these inversions.
The war on white people narrative is kind of a weird narrative.
It was popping up for a while.
I don't think it's that. I don't like framing it that way. I don't think it's that.
I don't like framing it that way.
I don't see it that way.
What I see is racial identitarianism, period.
And so let me break this down.
It's not so much that it's a war on white people.
It's the racialization of everything.
And the reason I think that, but it's Asians.
You know what I mean? It's racial stereotyping of all races.
So naturally you get the evolution of it's okay to make fun of white people.
And now you're going to get white people feeling like they're being attacked simply based on the color of their skin.
But then...
No, they are literally getting attacked.
Like physically attacked.
Well, you got to be careful about this stuff too.
The videos we see, and there's a lot of them, of white people just being attacked.
Those probably aren't new.
Okay.
That's not better.
I'm not saying it's better.
I'm saying you have to be careful with this idea that it's a new thing that white people are now being attacked.
Bro, go to the south side of Chicago.
I'll tell you all about it.
But it's not.
I've been attacked.
You've been shot at.
I have.
That was not a race thing, though.
Right.
But I have other situations that were complete. I told you about my uncle. been attacked you've been shot at i have that that was not a race thing though right but i have
other situations that were complete i told you about my uncle like i lost my uncle because he
was a white man and they thought that he had money because he was white and he got shot and killed
yep and it's like did that make me a racist no but this is not at all but it exists i see it i
know it exists i'm not gonna let it change me though the scary thing
about what the left is doing is that it's creating white identitarianism which was like going away
yeah after civil rights and you know the the lovingly virginia and then other provision you
know other amendments that have been made over the past several decades,
we were truly getting to a point where race, it was considered taboo to use that as a pretext for anything. And it became a secondary, it became an afterthought.
You still had comedians who would bring up race and make these points,
and people recognized there was a lot we had to do,
but we were getting away from using race as a pretext for anything.
The left brought it back. People recognized there was a lot we had to do, but we were getting away from using race as a pretext for anything. Yeah.
The left brought it back.
And when they started normalizing the belittling and the insulting of white people, it made a lot of – it created an incentive for many young white people to form a racial identity group.
And then you saw the rise of the alt-right.
That's a good point.
However, the issue, though, is what they're doing in California is it it's not about white people it's about them controlling and segregating everybody for whatever reason i
don't know they want to keep us separated so we don't we don't rise up and take over the
establishment that has kept us in control for so long it's it's almost blaringly obvious to me now
it's a they don't they don't want us together. They don't want us to rise
because we'll take over.
That's what we need to do. We need to take over.
Well, Trump is a populist
and that's why they hated him.
Bernie was the left populist, but
Bernie played ball in two seconds.
He immediately... You know what Bernie Sanders
said on the debate stage? And I love telling this to people
because they don't believe me. If you're white, you don't
know what it's like to be poor.
There's a quote going around from a french far left uh political leader and he said the people who believe
in white privilege never met a poor white person and i'm like that's like that's like a far leftist
in france what's up with that what the heck why is america so twisted and broken well you know i
think we know we talked about the addiction the addiction. It's the mental break.
It's funny to me that...
It's so much more than just that, too.
There's so many things.
This cog, these wheels.
There's so many wheels in this society that we have,
and they're all getting all misshapen.
They're still turning, but they're getting morphed and blobous, gross.
It's decaying.
It's decaying, yes.
Complicated.
Agreed.
Reminds me of, like, playing, you know, Link to the Past or something.
Okay.
And you're, like, in a room and the floor starts falling out.
That is an amazing game.
It is a great game.
Great game.
But I'm imagining, like, the floor just goes...
And you have to, like, run.
And you're running and the floor's falling behind you.
And it feels like that's what's happening.
Yep.
Like, we're watching the whole structure and system just start falling apart.
And I think it's, like, a zombification, a rot, a decay, a breakdown. What do you want to call it?
But the but I do want to I want to I do want to stress the point about what what what they are
doing with race. And someone when I pointed out to one of my friends that they've repealed
the civil rights legislation, they voted to repeal it in California and what that means. I said,
well, I do think one of their preliminary arguments is that they need to be able to
discriminate based on race in order to create equality. And, you know, so that's what their
argument is. What they've argued specifically is affirmative action. They're trying to they're
trying to use affirmative action as justification for repealing all civil rights law in the public sphere.
The argument is universities have too many Asians.
So we need to be able to stop Asians from getting in.
So stop rewarding people on their merit and just give it to them on the color of their skin.
And lighten their workload based on the color of their skin.
That's racist.
Of course it is. The assumption that
a certain race couldn't do it.
Yeah, it's insane.
And belittling. I'd be pissed.
Yes, I'm white.
I didn't go to college. I got lucky
and knew someone amazing
like Tim Pool called me up and said,
hey, you want to do a show with me?
This is where I am.
But basing anything like that on the color of your skin is just, it blows my mind away.
It's like the fact that people are okay with it.
A minority.
It's more like, hey, you know what?
You're less than us now.
So you don't have to do as much.
It's like, how belittling is that?
Man, I'd be pissed.
They don't just think it's okay.
They are actively trying to make it happen because they think it's good.
But this is the main point.
It's about all of the races.
I don't think it's an attack on any one race. I think it's literally them being like, we want to make sure you're all digitized into nice little packages where we can separate you and control which group goes where.
So when they say we can't have...
Who votes for who?
The craziest thing about Asians, when they say there's too many Asians in the university,
a lot of my progressive friends go, well, it is true.
There's like a disproportionate amount of Asians.
And I said, what does that mean?
What Asian?
Yeah.
Indian?
Chinese?
Laotian?
Vietnamese?
Korean?
Japanese?
Filipino?
Come on, come on.
Malaysian?
They have no idea what that means.
They don't. They don't.
They don't have any clue.
So you're telling me that you've taken half the planet, put it onto one continent, and
then said this entire ethnic region, the eastern hemisphere, is now one group.
It's insane.
Wow.
Yeah.
So I have to wonder what their real motivations are when they try and argue that a poor Vietnamese
immigrant is the same as a wealthy Indian immigrant.
Right.
Or a poor Vietnamese kid born in America, second generation, growing up in the ghetto.
They say, well, no matter how hard he works, we're not going to let him go to Harvard.
Amazing.
It's like they're trying to create a caste system.
And they found their in.
Seems like it.
You know what, man? We got to make fun of millennials because i'm getting this is too deep yeah it's
just too heavy for me wonderful let's let's do that that sounds wonderful that sounds good i
want to laugh we didn't even talk about the coast either i guess i mean we could we could do that
we can we can talk about that we're winging it tonight let's talk about what's the yeah whatever
and you know what before before we uh go on just remember. Smash that like button. Yes. Thank you, Tim.
It's my job.
Sure.
But I'll accept it.
Executive overreach. So remember, we're going to be giving away these boards.
We're going to give away four boards?
Maybe five.
We've decided to give away five because one post went above and beyond.
Oh, my goodness.
And we were like, wow.
That was so good.
It was so good. It was so good.
It was like the honorable,
you get to sit at the head of the table
and we're giving some of these boards away.
So that's going to come later tonight
after we talk about millennials.
Well, the first thing we're going to do
is talk about the insanity.
Yeah.
Hipsters of the coast.
Oh boy.
Check out this story, man.
Hipsters of the coast.
Wizards ends their relationship
with therese nielsen ridiculous beautiful piece of art that's an amazing piece of art look at the
intricate depth i believe that is hannah hannah ship's navigator i might be wrong whoa that's
from that's an old card huh no no no this one's uh from a commander set uh when they they brought
back a lot of like the old uh well we got we let. Let's get to the context real quick.
For those that aren't familiar, this is an art from the Magic the Gathering card game,
which we've been talking about quite a bit because there's a culture revolution going on
where they're purging now artists and old cards for their art and function.
And it is some of the most insane nonsense I've ever seen.
Many levels of insane.
If you are someone
who is concerned
about the culture revolution
and the culture war,
this is going to melt your brain.
Yeah, this is insane.
This is one of Magic the Gathering's
prominent card game.
I believe it's the most prominent
physical trading card game
in the world.
Maybe.
Because I think some
digital card games,
like Hearthstone.
But Magic the Gathering is,
I believe it's the first
trading card game, actually.
I think it was.
It might not have been the first, but it was definitely the one that took off.
I think it was the first.
Really?
I do.
Cool.
I could be wrong, but I do think so.
I don't know that for certain.
This artist, one of the most prominent artists who's ever created, you know.
She's been with Magic the entire time.
Therese Nielsen is an incredible artist.
She's been making art for magic
since the get-go.
I'm pretty sure she was one of the first.
No, maybe not the first, but
I mean, at least 20 years she's been doing
artwork for magic, and it's always been
incredible artwork. Well, she got fired.
She's gone. She's gone. They got rid of her.
She followed the wrong people on Twitter.
Amazing. That's it.
Let's see how Hipsters of the Coast frames this.
They say, Thursday evening on Weekly MTG, Wizards of the Coast revealed they've apparently
ended their relationship with controversial artists.
Oh, it's controversial now.
Think about that.
You could follow.
What if you followed, like, I don't know, Papa John's?
And they were like, well, but Papa John's and the N-word.
And he got fired.
Therefore, you're a bigot. You're out. Oh, my gosh. This't know, Papa John's. And they were like, well, but Papa John's and the N-word, and he got fired. Therefore, you're a bigot.
You're out. Oh my gosh.
This is Inquisition, man.
We haven't commissioned new art from Therese Nielsen in
quite a while, said Doug Bayer, principal
game designer on the world-building team for
Magic the Gathering. The last product
that will have any reprint art from her is
this fall with Zendikar Rising. Oh, that's
good to know. Bayer's statement, oh, look at this.
Bayer's statement is Wizards of the Coast's first acknowledgement of the controversy surrounding
Nielsen.
It came on the same day that it was revealed that Nielsen will have at least three cards
in Jumpstart, Magic's newest supplemental product, with her art Death's Approach,
Hunter's Insight, and Rhystic Study.
Oh, wow.
Rhystic Study.
Many in the Magic community were upset that Wizards was continuing to use Nielsen's work
after the information that has surfaced throughout
2018 and 2019. The information
that surfaced is that she followed Mike
Cernovich, Jack Posobiec, and Infowars.
That's it. That's it. That's it.
That's amazing.
She was familiar with their existence
and they terminated her.
This is crazy. You know what?
I wouldn't follow all of them, too.
I want all sides of the situation.
Right.
I don't want to be blocked.
I want to know what the left's talking about.
I want to know what the right's talking about.
I want to know what everyone in the middle's talking about.
I want all the opinions.
I want to read it all.
You can't be in a cult if you have access to information.
Yeah, dude.
Clearly.
They need to restrict what you can see or hear.
This is what I said earlier today.
I said,
Internet killed the mainstream media,
and they are fighting to the death to maintain
control.
But it's not this.
It's that there is a cult growing in our country, an infectious mind virus.
And the cult knows that if you follow Jack, Mike, or InfoWars, you will get a counter
narrative.
And Therese Nielsen knew that counter-narrative.
And she could spread that to other cult members.
That's it right there.
So they excised her.
That way she could not tell someone what was, you know...
I don't want to act like it's Mike, Jack, or Infowars are giving you the truth.
Just a different opinion.
I'll tell you what.
I never followed her on Twitter.
But I'm going to go find her after this show.
And follow her.
No, you know, man... I like her art. Her art's amazing.
When she got called out for it, she unfollowed them. Oh, seriously? Yep.
Wait, wait, wait, but don't cancel me.
Have a spine. We talked about this the other day. Because if she came out and said
like, what? You think they're going to let you back now?
No, it's too late. You're gone.
You've already been marked.
You're marked.
You're gone.
You're not in their circle.
And by backing down and unfollowing these people, you're basically saying, I'm sorry, you were right.
Exactly.
You're basically giving and admitting that you did something wrong instead of just being like, I follow a lot of people.
I don't know what you want me to say.
So do I have too much pride? Because I be like you know what you fired me for this
i'm never unfollowing them in fact i'm going through and i'm following tons of people you'll
disapprove of because it's too late like what's the point what's the point in kowtowing it's too
late and this this is the issue this is it people are giving in they're're caving. Where's their pride? Their spine's gone. They're giving in and letting these people run over our country, pull down statues.
It's insane.
I don't get it.
She could have said something like, oh, yeah, I noticed some activists were tweeting about
how awful they were.
And I was like, whoa, I better see what they're doing because this is bad, especially if they're
influential.
And then what are they going to say?
No, but instead, everyone always bends the knee.
The dude who took his shirt off and pulled his spine on an accident.
I'm so sorry I hurt your feelings by wearing a t-shirt.
Here's what they say.
Nielsen lives in Carson City, Nevada with her wife,
was one of Magic's most popular artists,
and began illustrating cards in 1996's Alliance expansion.
Okay, so it wasn't right in the beginning.
24 years.
Three years later.
That's incredible.
24 years of doing magic art.
And look what they say.
Look, in 2018, people noticed that Nielsen had been following members of the alt-right
and conspiracy theorists.
Who's the alt-right?
Well, so...
What?
Jack Posobiec and Mike Cernovich had, I believe they did.
They called themselves alt-right.
Kind of like alt-light type figures, I guess.
No, but they initially did say they were alt-right.
A lot of people did, though.
They didn't know what it was.
They didn't fully understand it.
Yeah.
Yep.
And it was like the perfect Trojan horse for all these alternative personalities or whatever
you want to call them, where they didn't know what alt-right meant.
That's so funny because this was pitched to me by a literal family member.
I've talked to you guys about this person.
They pitched it to me and they're like, how would you guys like to be part of this group?
It's called the alt-right. And I was like, well, what does it mean? Someone pitched it to you? Yeah, they pitched it to me and they're like how would you guys like to be part of this group it's called the alt-right and i was like well what does it mean so someone pitched it to you yeah they pitched it to me they're like do you want to be part of this and i was like
no thank you well think about it thanks but you didn't know what it was i had no idea i'm like
it sounds kind of interesting i just don't know enough about it this is what i tell you man i
don't want to be part of anyone's group right yeah get out of here yeah no it's not about being
dangerous it's like i don't know you right a part of anyone's group. Right. Yeah. Get out of here. Yeah. It's dangerous. It's like, I don't know you.
Right.
Well, you don't know.
And you know what the bigger problem for me is?
I'm better than you and I know it.
That's all it is.
I'm kidding.
I'm kidding.
Well, that's all the leaders of all these extreme groups on either side.
It doesn't matter.
Thanks, Anna.
If they're that extreme, they think they're better and know everything more than anyone
else.
But a part of it really is when people come and start talking
about groups i am just too arrogant to be like i'm not going to stand next to you for whatever
it is you're doing because because i just don't think you're smart enough to do what you're doing
i don't know what you i don't care what you think you are what you think you're doing i'm not a part
of your group and i'm not gonna i'm gonna wear my beanie i'm not gonna wear your hat i'm not gonna
wear your whatever i'm gonna wear whatever i want i'm gonna do my thing yep you know you know i once
got i got invited to the cl Clinton black tie gala the Clinton
Foundation's gala oh wow do you think you went and oh I know the story yeah I
told them what they sent me an invitation it was like through my agent
or whatever and I said I will go if I can wear my normal my standard my
standard fare and they said what does that mean and I said it means I'm gonna
wear a beanie and a t-shirt and they said it what does that mean? And I said, it means I'm going to wear a beanie and a t-shirt.
And they said, it's a black tie affair.
And I said, well, you know my terms.
And then they were like, they told me that I had to wear it.
And then when I said, you know, I'm not going to wear a suit.
They said, it's mandatory participation.
And I was like, later.
I'm not going to your Clinton Foundation, whatever.
Make me wear a tie. Right. Are you kidding? and and and I said look I'll be honest with you I was I was talking to my agent after the fact and I was like there there are people who who
like and respect me I'm a guy out on the street on boots on the ground the last thing I'm gonna
do is put on a tuxedo or whatever they want me to wear yeah and show up to their silly little
gala and act like some foofy elitist. So when you went to the White House, was that last year?
Yeah.
You wore your beanie?
I wore exactly what I'm wearing.
This outfit?
This is a new shirt, but basically the same thing.
So you wore the old version?
Yeah, yeah.
Cool.
Respect.
But you know what the funny thing is?
This is the best thing.
You want to know why I'm not down with whatever these weirdo leftists banning people is and why
I like the conservatives even though I don't agree with them politically
do you know what the reaction from the conservatives was
when they saw me wearing the beanie
they laughed and they shook my hand
people walked up to me like
I knew you were going to do it
oh you Tim
we know you
somebody asked me
and they said something like don't you think this is the
one thing you could wear a suit for?
And I said, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Hey, hey, hey.
This is America, right?
America.
America is a country that was founded on the pioneers who told the wealthy, the nobles,
the monarchs, all those people to shove it.
Yep.
And I was like, so I take pride in the fact that I can go to the White House and wear
whatever I want.
And they were like, here, here man well here's to you so here's
to you we're now we're not a time where i mean maybe some of them were offended yeah you know
but like it was all laughs from everyone i saw they were like that's tim oh you crazy guy like
the madman did it i can't believe it yeah you didn't wear a suit and i was like i'm my own man
so i'm not gonna i'm not gonna you know i'm not gonna join a pitchfork mob to go after an artist
right and and so it's it's funny too because they these people constantly try to use pictures of me
sitting down with like other alt-right people it's like it's a dig against me and i'm like
you realize like i was there when they took the picture. Like, I knew they were taking a picture of me.
Okay.
They think it's some kind of dig at me that makes me mad.
They post pictures of me.
There's like a picture of me with a shoe in my head or something.
And I'm like, it's like a 4chan meme.
Okay.
And then they're like, look at this picture of this idiot.
And I'm like, you realize I posted that picture.
It's like, what don't you get?
What jerk put this online?
I don't care.
But here's
the reality. Look, with all
due respect to this great artist,
when they came
after her, she immediately
unfollows them.
Yeah, I didn't know that.
Come on, Therese. I think they say it. I got your back.
You're an amazing artist.
She also followed, I guess,
what does it say?
She followed Stefan Molyneux, as if it matters.
She also was found to have liked a number of racist tweets.
They're not even really racist.
I don't even know what they're talking about.
Whatever.
So when all this was brought to light, she unfollowed many of those accounts and unlike the offending tweets.
However, the controversy would not die down, and it resurfaced a year later in 2019, at which time she issued a long statement.
Oh, my. Oh no.
Being excommunicated from a community and ostracized by family for following
my convictions is not new to me.
The magic community has blessed me and taught me
in a myriad of ways in the past 25 years.
I embrace the fact that many different
viewpoints can do and should
coexist. In these stressful times,
it is my intent to navigate in
harmony with my core values,
beauty, compassion, love,
to the best of my ability
without any need or desire
to stifle, censor, or demean another
for differently held viewpoints.
That's respectable.
Solid, yeah.
Many found her statement vague and underwhelming.
I agree with that as well.
It is a bit vague.
Yeah, okay.
I can see that also.
Especially because it didn't address
her alleged trans-exclusionary beliefs.
Oh, for...
Nielsen later posted a second statement celebrating Pride Month saying,
Just so nothing I've expressed thus far can possibly be misunderstood.
For the record, I support human rights, trans rights, gay rights,
as well as religious freedom and the sacredness of life in all forms.
Just a few months later, her work ended up on the racist,
QAnon, and conspiracy-focused YouTube channel Edge of Wonder.
The show posted a video on July 12, 2019, in which the co-hosts present art prints that Nielsen had gifted them.
What?
She dare gave someone art.
She is an artist.
She gave them a gift.
She's gifted art for so long.
I've seen stuff.
I've been interested in getting some of her art. Because it really is really good.
So what does it say?
Crazy.
They're calling her a turd.
We hear you, Bayer said Thursday, the implication of his words.
That the last product that will have any reprint art from Nielsen will be Zendikar Rising.
Combined with the fact that they haven't commissioned any new art from her in a while,
is that Wizards has stopped working with Nielsen and will cease printing cards with her art.
When hipsters reached out to Wizards for confirmation, they declined to comment further.
I think it might be time for me to cease my playing magic and buying new magic products.
This is a red line for me, man.
The jumpstart that they're coming out with, the double masters thing they're coming out,
they're just shoving cards like collectors are pissed
i i've seen i follow a lot of collectors on instagram they're quitting they're like we're
done i'm done trying to you know all the all the old cards they're collecting they're reprinting
so the value is dropping crashing so the aftermarket is being busted they're just selling
these products to sell to make money's it. They just want money.
And it's Hasbro now owns them.
It's like they're just shoving this product and people are buying it.
But I don't think they should buy it anymore.
I really think we should quit playing Magic.
Just quit.
Should we quit?
I think we should quit.
Man.
I did a tweet yesterday.
I have a massive collection.
People are like, oh, you and Tim should play Magic.
And I was like, oh, do people want to do it?
People seem to want to see us play, but honestly.
We've been working on our own.
It feels like a waste of my time.
We've been working on our own card game.
Yeah.
That we wanted to do kind of like a tabletop that could be popped out of the box and anyone could just play.
Yeah.
So for those that aren't familiar with Magic, there's like 20,000 cards, a bunch of different formats.
There's a secondary market where cards have ridiculous values in the thousands of dollars potentially
down to like 50 cents and we don't want to make we want to make something more fun and simple
there's a lot of games like this that are just like you pull the deck out of the box and it's
just like a deck of cards but i think maybe we really need to quit magic and make a more fun
i think we should just and to get away away from their insanity and we can hire this artist.
Yeah.
You got an artist you can talk to,
but this is spreading this,
this whole thing is spreading.
Let's talk about the,
the step-mom.
Oh yeah,
dude.
So we got it.
We got another article here.
You want to raise one?
Yeah,
sure.
Here.
Yeah.
Pull it up.
Stepmother of the Atlantic cop charged with shooting a date.
Ray Sean Brooks is fired for her job as a mortgage
company's HR director because
of employees
creating a hostile working environment.
So her employees aren't
creating the hostile work environment?
Let's read about it. You know what I think she did?
What? I think she defended her son.
Yeah, probably. And they were like, how dare
you? How dare you defend
your son?
That would make sense to me.
That would be controversial.
Let's see.
Garrett Rolfe's stepmother, Melissa Rolfe, had her employment at the Atlanta-based Equity Prime Mortgage terminated this week.
The company said Melissa, an HR director, had violated company policy and created an uncomfortable and hostile working environment.
They said the violations came as Melissa was transitioning to a leave of absence granted by the firm.
It is not clear what Melissa said or did to warrant her firing.
Melissa apparently wrote to Georgia congressional candidate Marjorie Taylor Green,
calling what is happening to her stepson nonsense.
News of Melissa's firing came just
hours after Rolf was taken into custody
after being charged with felony murder over
Brooks' death over a week ago.
The sins of the father.
This is what they do in
authoritarian and communist.
Freedom of speech is dying
right in front of our eyes.
It's not dead.
It's on life support.
We're still here right now.
Yep.
This would have been shut off if it was dead.
People don't want us talking like this.
No, I think freedom of speech has.
It's dying.
It's not dead yet.
I think it is dead.
Okay.
Can you say, are there things you can say right now that would result in this video being taken down?
Yep.
I mean, we're on, we've talked about social media.
We talked about it.
We can't say certain words and you're like, I don't say those words.
You can't say someone's name.
So, you know, it's not bending the knee, but it's tilting slightly towards YouTube.
It's the same thing.
So, you know, what's the difference?
In my circumstance, there's not much I could say that would get me banned.
Because my opinions are rather moderate.
There are opinions you can have that you would be banned for instantly.
And yet there's words you can say.
You know you can't insult veterans on YouTube.
Really?
You can't insult veterans.
Huh.
What do you mean?
How do you mean?
Like insult them?
You can't.
It's hate speech.
They call them a name? yeah or or you know if if you were to say something negative about veterans
youtube will strike your channel wow you can't uh criticize someone for their immigration status
okay there's no free speech free speech would be now now we recognize under the supreme court
there are limits to speech and i believe it's fair to say, like, telling someone to go do something
and then they go, like, commit a crime.
Incitement, yeah.
Incitement is a limit.
Expressing your political beliefs,
no matter how detestable, is free speech.
Yeah.
YouTube doesn't allow that.
So if you, I'll put it this way.
If free speech is a range of opinions
from negative 10 to positive 10,
and you're only allowed negative 10 to positive 2.
It's not free speech.
That's true.
The entire quadrant has been purged from YouTube.
Someone in the comments said it's on life support.
Yes.
Yeah.
That's pretty accurate.
It's kind of like, you know, where it's a scene from Star Wars where the room's closing in.
They crush them.
And we're like, no.
The trash compactor.
And right now we've got the beam, like like stopping it from crushing us for the time being we just need we
need r2d2 to turn turn it off yeah but we don't have an r2d2 where are you somebody turn the trash
compactor off please it's it's not so much about free speech in this story even i think the free speech we're granted right now is i i i think this i
think free speech is completely dead and what what's happening is youtube allows us to do this
to make sure there's an overreaction when they go for the final crushing blow against freedom
right because they don't want the uh the majority of people that still believe it exists to find out
that it doesn't exist anymore because they'll be like oh oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.
And so what they do is...
Slowly but surely.
It's a story I've told about eBay,
how they changed from yellow to white.
Exactly.
Everybody got really angry.
So then what they did was every day
they added one more shade closer to white
and the background over one year turned from yellow to white
without anyone realizing it
because it was so slow and gradual.
That's what they need to be careful of.
Yep. So when when Google banned the Federalist the other day, so basically, for those aren't familiar, NBC News contacted Google and said, look at these offensive articles from the Federalist.
Google then issued a statement to them saying we have banned the Federalist,
a mainstream conservative website. Yeah, that was a red line. And all of a sudden, the entire internet was lighting up.
It was crazy.
Trump Jr. was like, wheel them in.
They've got to force them to testify.
And then Google immediately backtracked.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
We didn't.
We didn't.
No, no, no.
We just were talking about their comments.
And they're not banned.
They're rectifying the situation.
So Google wanted to do it.
And they realized they went a little too hard causing a backlash.
Yep.
They did four shades too soon.
Right now Facebook has a new version, which you've seen the new Facebook version.
I can't stand it.
It's awful.
It's awful.
But they know that if they do it all at once, every single user will screech.
Yeah.
And then they'll have a problem.
So what they do is they do pockets.
They actually changed Facebook for me and then a week later changed it back.
Really? Yeah. That's weird.
I think I know why. I stopped using it.
I mean, I barely use Facebook myself.
Once it changed, it was just awful.
I stopped using it, not on
purpose, just because it wasn't convenient anymore.
And then one day I came back and it was normal.
And I was like, whoa. So I wonder if they
thought the same thing. Oops, too far, too much, too much.
Better calm down, better slow down.
So that's what we're seeing right now with free speech.
YouTube, Twitter, like they,
I think they want to ban all of this stuff.
And the reason they haven't banned me yet from YouTube
is because they don't want people freaking out just yet.
That's true.
So I don't, I don't know, man, if Trump wins reelection, will they finally just
be like, OK, we'll wait another four years and try and win? It's crazy to me that they're willing
to blow everything up to try and stop Trump from winning another four years when they could just
wait four years and then run their candidate and try and win when Trump can't run for reelection.
Good point. They're insane. So, yeah, I do think that it's only a matter of time. Look,
if these companies are going to fire
the family members
of people involved
in these stories,
I think we're well past
the point where speech
is an issue.
I think to them,
they're like,
Tim Pool is acceptable.
He's the,
like I was saying,
the negative two
to positive 10.
Yeah,
Tim Pool's a zero
for the most part.
Maybe a positive one
because he rags
on the Democrats so much. But he's nowhere near conservative like these other people yeah like
when when i was on crowder's show the other day like crowder's much more opinionated and forceful
on his view totally is yeah not like i'm not and so they already demonetized him didn't they i think
i think he's still demonetized for sure i don't you know his you know what's going on this business
but they demonetize a ton of other people.
You know, we saw Luke and Ariel get stripped from the partner program.
True. So they're getting rid of their undesirables, but they need to keep a few people.
Otherwise, everyone would screech and panic.
And then what they want to avoid is being hauled into the Senate hearings to testify,
although it doesn't do anything.
So they're like, they know there's a line.
For years, we have seen them continually push the line.
Everything's getting worse.
But it's never gotten so bad that they haul in these tech companies
until they went after the Federalist.
And that was a big mistake.
They took it one step too far.
And now they may actually get hauled in to testify.
And now the DOJ has released guidelines recently on what they have to do mistake. They took it one step too far and now they may actually get hauled in a testify. And
now the DOJ has released guidelines recently on what they have to do, what they should do,
and how bills should be drafted to prevent censorship. I hope so. I feel like somebody
was watching my video because one of the changes is that they would define objectionable content
as unlawful. So what I've been saying about Section 230, which shields these
big tech companies from liability, is that they should make it so that big tech companies, so
long as they only remove content that's unlawful, then they're not liable for what is said.
If they start removing political opinions, they should not be protected. Like Facebook is
literally publishing editorials. Yep. So when I logged into Facebook today, I got a big thing
about the importance of Black Lives Matter. I saw that. That's a publisher. And so if the New York
Times sue them for what they publish, now you can still argue we're in a comment section, so they
still could be protected, but they should be placed in a different bracket.
Facebook's actually argued legally that they are both a publisher and a platform before.
And people don't realize that New York Times is a publisher,
but their comment section they're not liable for.
That's section 230.
So if Facebook and Instagram publish stuff, and they do,
like if you go to the search tab of Instagram,
you will get a Black Lives Matter taking up, you know, 30, 40 percent of your screen.
It doesn't matter because the rest of the content is, you know, it's comments.
It's user generated section. So they're going to get away with it.
And maybe the DOJ changes will come through. I really don't think so.
The Republicans have has any Republican come up and sit on the floor yelling about the destruction of Thomas Jefferson and George Washington?
I don't know.
In the Democrats call to remove Jefferson from the city council chamber.
Has any politician said this is outrageous that they would try and remove one of our one of our presidents?
No idea.
Think about how insane that is.
But the first thing I heard from France is what you just told me.
Nope.
Yeah. We're not getting rid of anything. Yeah luck trying amazing just like wow no france said that yeah
it's like those man she's eating surrender monkeys that's probably hate speech to be honest
no doubt but it's a french come on no that's a joke from i think simpsons i think so too yeah
it's a simpsons joke that's the funny thing about where we're at right now is i i always wonder why it is that theresa nielsen will be you
know this artist will be canceled because she followed somebody but seth mcfarland is like
heralded as this great right you know let lift let liberal it's like the dude still makes racist
jokes all the time all every single episode of Family Guy. I mean, dude, Family Guy and American Dad.
Yeah.
American Dad's premise is very much like the U.S. war in the Middle East.
Right.
And it was supposed to be like making fun of the neocon family, I guess.
Well, it's okay if you're over in the left area because Seth MacFarlane is very much on the left.
You know, I follow him.
He's outspoken.
Yep.
And he does call out SJWs.
He does.
Family Guy's got numerous jokes
ragging on cancel culture.
Yeah.
But I feel like he doesn't do enough.
And he avoids it probably
because he likes being rich
and he doesn't want to stick his neck out.
Yeah, maybe.
That's one of the curses
of American individualism.
There's no community bond anymore
absolutely true yeah there's no community they're they just toppled george washington and jefferson
and where any of these people to be like stop that i'll say it a million times yeah you know but
comedians yeah i'd be willing to bet joe rogan would call it crazy oh yeah probably has yeah
i wonder about dave chappelle though i wonder about uh you know these these bigger media
companies definitely won't think about how insane that is jimmy kimmel right he won't say anything
no these he'll get canceled colbert won't say anything they'll come after him john oliver won't
say anything yep they're rich they're rich and their jokes must be in line with what the outrage mob demands.
And they'll cave in two seconds.
Yep.
So now you can have, in the United States of America, the flag being burned is one thing.
But people throwing ropes over statues and destroying them is like, wow, we're really at this point.
Yeah, it's messed up.
And then you see what happened in New Mexico when that guy shows up with a gun.
Don't destroy our statues. Yeah, it's messed up. And then you see what happened in New Mexico when that guy shows up with a gun. Don't destroy our statues.
And they attack him.
They threaten his life.
They beat him.
He shoots the guy several times.
They drop the charges.
Yep.
He may get charged again.
Right.
But it looks like the dude's holding a knife.
Yeah.
So I'll tell you, man,
we had the guys in South Philly.
It's only a matter of time
before Americans say the law isn't – you know what?
I wouldn't be surprised if the police get abolished.
You know why?
Why?
Why is it that South Philly residents had to defend that statue and the police didn't do it?
What are the police for if they know they're coming to destroy public property and the cops are like, what are you going to stand back?
The police aren't being protected right now.
They're being blamed.
If you ask anybody – no, no, no.
It's their fault. They started this. And it's like they
so all cops, every single one wants to kill any minority.
It's like, come on. That is not the truth. But statues.
You'd think the cops could stand around a statue and stop it from being toppled, right?
They're not even trying. They're probably ordered to stand down.
They're probably ordered to not go exactly so the issue then is why would conservatives support the police that are
enforcing unconstitutional orders with the lockdown refusing to protect protect public
property and isn't it all in democratic cities so they're mostly yeah down the chain of command
you got the mayor who's like you're not going i'm gonna call the police chief
you guys are not going or you're gone i'm gonna i'm out you're gone if if you don't follow what
i'm saying right now and it's like quit then they are they are quitting they are yeah the
democratic cities yeah and it makes you're gonna love this oh the surrounding jurisdictions of
atlanta have started posting uh don't call us. No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
What?
They started posting job openings.
Oh, really?
Wow.
I wonder.
It's like, hey, you need a job.
Like, yeah.
Yeah.
The surrounding suburbs and towns were like, we'll take you.
Yeah, we're hiring us.
The guy told me they were fine.
Wow.
Yeah, dude.
Well, here's what I think is going to happen.
These activists are announcing they're going to do it.
And they show up and the cops don't do anything about it.
For whatever reason.
So how long until we get a bunch of armed guys like paramilitary or militia standing guard and guarding monuments and statues?
I can't believe that we haven't seen it yet.
You want to have a conversation about these dudes?
Somewhat.
You want to have a conversation about these dudes in South Philly with Christopher Columbus?
I kind of roll my eyes.
I'm like, I'm not a Columbus fan.
Nah, he's not a founding father.
Yeah, I agree.
America and the colonies are not the same thing as what the founding fathers represented.
The colonies were European colonial, you know, adventurism and things like this.
Yeah. uh european colonial you know adventurism and things like this yeah the the founding fathers
was an ideological shift about the equal rights of the individuals the rights to self-governance
and it was a change away from the like dare i say to use the language of these people
the founding fathers opposed the colonial mindset in a sense they wanted people to be free and have
their own space and mind their own business.
That's a good point.
The Gadsden flag is literally, don't tread on me.
Now, to be fair, we still had a bunch of lands being seized by the Americans.
It's not like these people didn't have their hypocrisy about them.
But it was an ideological shift.
So what happened before, people like Christopher Columbus
and these other conquistadors and preachers,
before the colonies was a very, very different mindset.
And mind you, hundreds of years.
Hundreds.
Hundreds of years have gone by.
1492, Christopher Columbus to 1776.
It's like, that's a long time, man.
It's a big difference.
It's a seriously big difference.
But anyway, here's the point.
When I see people defending Christopher Columbus
for all his faults, and he did not create this country,
I think that's very, very interesting.
Now they're toppling Jefferson in Washington.
If these people came out to Philly, I'd imagine, and tried to go after icons of independence, I'd imagine you might see some dead people.
That's what I said weeks ago.
I'm worried.
I know.
I'm worried about it because they're going to finally meet Americans that are like,
you're not treading on me.
So what happens then when we watch the politicians
destroy our monuments in our own
city hall? I don't live in New York
anymore, but... Well, New York is a
mess.
A democratic city run by
Democrats. Are there patriots in New York?
de Blasio is a joke. He is a joke.
Well, Nancy Pelosi
is having them take all the pictures of slave owners
out of the historical hall in the White House, right?
No, you're technically correct. She's just having
removed pictures of Democrats. Yeah, I know.
I know that. I was going to throw that out next,
but, I mean, they're all slave owners, and they're going
Yeah, they were all Democrats. Yeah, that's hilarious.
So that's the joke. She's like, Confederate pictures
must be removed, and then the Republicans were like,
so you're moving the Democrats.
And they are.
Yeah, they sure are.
Yeah, they sure are.
All of them.
Newsflash.
Democrats want us segregated.
Well, but to be fair, the actual Democratic voters agree with it.
Like, so when someone pointed out that I saw this post on Twitter, there's a big thread about it.
Somebody posted, ha ha.
So they're removing pictures of Democrats.
The progressive Democrats were like, yes,
they're admitting the mistakes
and they're getting rid of it. Good for them.
And I'm like, okay. You know what I mean? So it's like,
it's funny. They're Democrats getting rid of it. I like the
meme of, you know, the video
of them taking down and then they show
like the picture of the old
white dude, whatever. And it's Nancy
Pelosi's face on it. I was like,
oh, that's good. I didn't see that one. It's a on it i was like oh that's good i didn't see
that it's a good meme yeah it's really good i gotta look it up carrying her away i'm like yes
please let it be true seriously so uh we definitely gotta do super chats now oh yeah however we're
running late we are running late but this show is gonna be longer so for those that are watching
we've got is gonna go long it's friday we go. This is the... Here we go.
Transition of power.
Harumph!
We've got five boards we're giving away.
Harumph!
We are giving these boards away.
So we're going to go through memes.
Meme review.
We are going to do some meme reviews very soon.
Does PewDiePie still do that?
I don't know.
I don't know if he does.
Is that a thing?
He did do the meme review.
I've actually never watched any of his videos. You're kind of missing out.
I like it.
So we're going to read Super Chats now.
Then we're going to do the meme contest.
The meme contest.
We've got a bunch of really great memes.
One of them is so incredible.
Oh, man.
It's so good.
Like, this is crazy how good it is.
It's amazing.
It's so good.
We're going to make posters of it.
We are going to make posters of this.
And I want it on my wall.
It's beautiful.
So stay tuned.
After Super Chats, we're going to show you the memes.
We have them all pulled up.
You'll see all the memes.
They're great.
And then we're closing out the Friday night show as we normally do with some jam sessions.
Yes.
So before we do that, before we do this.
Smash the like button.
Smash, smash, smash.
Yes.
Yes.
Don't break your phone because we need you to watch.
Don't break the phone.
That was actually a meme. Someone memed that. because we need you to watch. Don't break the phone. That was actually me.
Someone memed that.
A broken phone.
Very nice.
It was great.
I don't know if we had that one pulled up, but it was funny.
That's awesome.
All right, let's read some Super Chats.
Here we go.
This one just popped up and it's very relevant.
Nanashi NoName says,
Magic the Gathering was indeed the first trading card game that came out.
Richard Garfield was trying to publish a board game,
but was told it looked too expensive to produce and expressed interest in a more faster playing game that is more portable.
Very cool. Very cool. All right. So let's see. Let's just jump to the beginning and read some
of these chats. Cole says, with everything going on, I've never been more afraid to be white.
How is this justice to some people? This isn't what our country is about. It's about spinning
the UFO. Oh, very, very clever.
Very true. I love it, though.
It is. I am free to spin this
UFO. That's right. Fractal says, Tim, did
you see the video Trump posted yesterday that got
fact-checked for being manipulated?
Even though, wait, it said
in the video, basically, the video
was totally removed. Yeah, it got removed, too.
I retweeted it. It was hilarious. They always do this. They go
after Trump's. It was so good. Man, it was removed too. I retweeted it. It was hilarious. They always do this. They go after Trump's. It was so good.
Man, it was funny. And CNN
was immediately going,
we are here to report this is
not actually the video. It has been
doctored. He doctored that
video. That is not what we said. That is
not what we reported. There was a Twitter moment
that said, it is a true rump.
Trump video doctored, journalists confirm.
Yes. I was real. That was a trend. Did they not watch the whole video doctored, journalists confirm. Yes.
I was real.
That was a trend, yeah. Did they not watch the whole video?
Listen, listen, listen.
They must not have watched it.
If your mind is drug addled and you are hunched over and unhealthy and your brain doesn't work and you're sitting there like drooling, you need someone to confirm to you whether or not a joke skit video is real or not.
Yep.
It's insane.
It was a trap.
It was the perfect trap.
Death is Eternal says, hi, Tim, Adam, and Liz.
Hello.
Thank you for all that you do, but I want to speak up as well and do my part for my home.
Michiganders, July 4th in Lansing.
A petition will be passed around to remove Whitmer.
Spread the word.
Love you.
Oh.
Do it.
Kaj says, so are any of
you going to be playing sony's newly released golfing simulator the last of us uh the last of
uh of two joel in one i am i have zero i have i have a negative interest in the last of us two
you want to you want to know i don't care about it you want to know what i heard about this game
what i heard that it's meh. I heard it's crap.
Well, no, but I don't believe that.
No?
I believe it's probably just meh.
So all the big companies are going, it's a masterpiece.
It's the best game.
Smash that 10 out of 10.
And then you get a lot of people saying that it's really, really bad.
It's a 3 out of 10.
The user data is like 3.5 out of 10 right now, I think.
But the people I know that I trust have said, it's okay.
It's not really that great.
I wouldn't call it a bad game.
It's got amazing graphics, but it's certainly no masterpiece.
Yeah, the game developers are really losing touch with what gamers really want.
Well, it's because the...
Well, look at Magic.
That's a good point.
Why are you banning art and game function?
It's ridiculous.
Yep.
It's the cult taking over.
And you know what?
There is still kind of like...
I don't want to call it a light at the end of the tunnel or an open window because it's still bad.
But when all of this collapses and all these businesses go completely under,
then we start back over
and rebuild the things that we like.
We still have From Software.
We still have what?
From Software.
What's that?
My favorite game company.
They're amazing.
Look, are people going to keep playing Magic
after they do all these weird and wacky changes
and ban things and get creepy and scary?
I don't know.
I don't know either.
Just ban magic.
Yeah.
Just get it over with.
You made it racist, magic wizards.
Wizards, you made it racist.
You want to know something?
You ruined it for me.
You want to know something?
What?
The first time I had played it in years was when you first got here and you had your commander
decks and I was like, oh yeah, let's play.
Yeah.
Let me try and find out where my cards are.
I don't even know where I put them.
Yeah, that's true.
The reason why I stopped buying and playing was because wizards
Banned a shop because someone put a little tech flag in a flowerpot. That's ridiculous. And I was like listen man meme
Yeah, and my point was this when I go to a shop to have my goblin fight a vampire
I do not want to talk about the merits of intersectional feminism
So please get away from that.
Right.
And so when I started doing that, I was like, I don't even want to go to these shops anymore.
I don't even want to play.
And so I just put my cards like in the corner and forgot where they were.
Yeah.
And that one time we went, it was like uncomfortable.
Uncomfortably intersectional.
Explain.
Oh, dude.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You go for it.
Okay.
So they had like a safe space flag in the window.
Like legit.
Like if you are worried about getting your feelings hurt, you can come here and we will had a yeah you go for it okay so they had like a safe space flag in the window like legit like if
you are worried about getting your feelings hurt you can come here and we will take care of you
and protect your precious little feelings and i was like i feel like i'm in social justice phil
up in here and this is not the way it's supposed to be i'm just supposed to be with a bunch of
nerds can we cancel participation trophies yet yeah that would be nice can we get rid of that
but i don't i mean that, that's not necessarily the,
it's one part of the problem.
But I'll tell you this.
It's the lead up, man.
When I see a store
and they've got a big banner
that says safe space
with like a fist or whatever.
Just keep your eye on it.
Dude, yeah.
Dude, it did not feel safe
in that building.
I'm sure.
It felt weird,
cult-like and creepy.
Yep.
And it was like,
the shops I used to hang out at,
I knew the shop owner,
he'd walk in,
they'd be like,
what up?
What do you need?
You walk into these shops
and they're just like
zombie blank faces.
Yeah.
And they're just like NPCs
with no interactions.
The crazy thing about the shop is
they didn't have singles.
They only,
so they only,
right,
they only had boosters
and actual products.
Well,
that's where,
boosters,
or single cards,
you can't make money,
especially when they're doing this jumpstart thing,
which is like 90% reprints.
So I wouldn't have any interest in it anyway.
I have all the cards.
I have them already.
I've been playing for 25 years.
It's crazy.
So we had some more super chats.
Tyler says,
what do you think of Brett Weinstein's recommendation
of Andrew Yank and William H. McRavencraven independent ticket to begin the process of saving our nation
they are both respectable intelligent people with a good history of competence i would vote for them
i don't know who they are but i do trust brett so if he's saying these people are smart well
it's andrew yang they misspelled it oh oh you know who andrew yang is right i i would right
yeah no but that's that's what he who he was talking about must be yang it is um i don't i don't know if i would go for yang at this point
he's he's played ball too much with these people i don't trust him he's on a news network now he's
on cnn right yep oh there was a period where i thought it was it was great that he was like
giving sensible ideas and he was very moderate and now he's just been playing ball supporting biden nope nope no no no
sorry yeah kevin brown says i've been warning people for four years of the upcoming civil war
but i swore up and down it was going to be the authoritarian far right who would burn the books
films and art i was so wrong yeah i thought that in the 90s for saint miles i saw that jared says
are you ever going to have guests like Crowder does?
I know you lean left, but people like Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, but people like, but like people?
It seems they are willing to come on and you can tell them to stand up to these fools.
Yeah, we have guests.
I think so.
We've got a big project in the works where we're going to be expanding.
We're going to have a much bigger set and everything like this.
Expansion is upon us.
Big things are coming.
There's a lot of work involved.
So we may be able to announce it in a month, but we may not be ready to go for three months maybe.
Maybe then the ridiculous fake lockdown stuff will be over.
I hope so.
And then it'll be easier.
But, dude, I would love to have Ted Cruz and Rand Paul.
Rand Paul was the first guest I pitched.
When Tim was like, you're going to be doing some of the guest coordination.
I was like, you're going to have Rand Paul?
I'm like, yeah, if you make it happen.
Can we do it?
Rand Paul's awesome.
Do you think we can get Rand Paul?
That would be awesome.
I was like, he's so busy, but that'd be so neat.
I would be like, Rand, I only want one thing from you.
What?
No.
No?
Yeah.
He is Dr. No Junior.
Yes.
With his tiny gavel. You ron paul yeah he's dead
dr no he just said no to everything it's like i don't care what it does how about we get it no
nope can we get a little bit of funny no no no but ran paul's obstruction can i get a little no
yeah yeah you can oh yeah it worked it was uh you bugs bunnied me but uh but rand paul's obstruction is usually principled
for a lot of important reasons yeah i absolutely respect it for the record i would have accepted
no no as an answer all right aaron garcia says never had a twitter account i just downloaded
parlay let's see what happens parlay spelled parlor is yeah uh p-a-r-l-e-r is like a pro
it's like i don't i don't necessarily necessarily say it's a
pro-trump company but it's like twitter and a bunch of conservatives go there and a lot of the
people who are banned have large followings there okay my question is you know early today brad
parscale i think what's today brad parscale who is the he's the campaign manager for trump right
he said twitter you know twitter's end is coming or something like this.
Twitter's days are numbered and then linked to Parlay.
Oh.
Oh, yeah.
And I'm like, okay, great.
Are you going to convince Trump to finally actively post there instead?
Come on.
That would be a huge impact on Twitter.
The moment that Trump posts a policy or position onto an alternative platform, the media is
forced to cover it.
True.
And then what are they going to do about it?
And actually, I read an article about Twitter was,
I don't know if this is true.
You'll actually know more about this,
but in 2016, Twitter wasn't doing very well.
Oh, they were.
Yeah, it was really bad.
In 2015, they were running out.
It could have gone really bad for them.
Trump started tweeting.
He became the president.
And then Twitter is now a huge Twitter. Yep. Because of Trump. Because of Trump. tweeting. He became the president. Twitter is now huge.
Twitter.
Yep.
Because of Trump.
Because of Trump.
Yep.
Yeah.
His tweets are on TV.
His followers are joining like crazy.
It changes the stock market.
When I went to the White House, it was somebody asked, will you join an alternative social
media network?
And he says, which one?
Yeah.
And then no one said anything.
Oh, my gosh.
That was your chance.
And I was with Bill Ottman of Mines.
Tim.
And he was the CEO.
Where were you?
I was sitting next to Bill.
And I'm like, Bill, yell Mines.
I'm like, Bill, yell Mines.
Did you jab him?
Yeah.
I just yell it.
That was your chance, Bill.
Yeah.
But he tried.
By the way, happy birthday, Bill.
Oh.
Is it his birthday?
No.
It's somebody's birthday. You wished Bill a happy birthday yesterday. We wish everyone, happy birthday, Bill. Oh. Is it a birthday? No. It's somebody's birthday.
You wished Bill a happy birthday yesterday.
We wish everyone a happy birthday.
And then hashtag happy birthday Bill started trending.
Oh, my gosh.
Oh, really?
Wait, trending?
Such power.
I saw people doing it.
Oh, you mean in the chat.
Yeah, trending in our chat.
That's trending, all right?
We're top quality here.
We are trending.
Look at us.
All right, let's see what we got.
We're trending now.
Yeah, sorry.
Max says, essential service payday.
Get a Streamlabs so I don't have to give YouTube money.
Thanks, guys.
Yeah, we can set up Streamlabs.
I think that can help because, you know, Adam and I were talking about that earlier.
A better way to do.
How dare you?
Oh, you mean a soundboard?
Oh, that's what I'm sorry.
I instantly just go to a sound.
You said that we can use the Streamlabs for the soundboard thing also.
So I'm pretty sure if we do super chats through Stream labs you will see them i would like that and we don't give youtube
that 35 percent youtube takes 35 percent don't say it too loud everybody knows it's not a secret
i know but i don't that's why youtube that's why youtube will hear it and be like hmm youtube maybe
we should jump the gun on this one you know we'll do we'll we'll set it up literally after this
actually no i've got to go to bed early because i got a big day tomorrow yeah and it's a long Maybe we should jump the gun on this one. You know what we'll do? We'll set it up literally after this.
Actually, no.
I've got to go to bed early because I've got a big day tomorrow.
Yeah, it's a long... We're still going to be going for a while, too.
We can tackle this shortly.
Let's see.
N. Kari says,
I am getting closer and closer to becoming identitarian.
The BLM stuff here in Sweden is not helping.
I don't want to, but I feel the day I have become one is coming soon.
That's exactly...
They want that.
That's what they want. Don't do it. They want us to remember that we coming soon. That's exactly... They want that. They want to separate it.
They want us to remember
that we're different. It's like, no.
Don't give in. We got you.
Steve Smith says, hello comrades.
If we aren't allowed to like founding fathers who had
slaves, then I say we celebrate John Adams
and his John Quincy Adams.
I'm having some fan art commissioned. Smoke the good
vitamins and SP UFO.
I will. And actually, on that note,
so we're going to be doing the meme competition soon.
We're going to give away winners.
But on my Twitter page,
you can go to the pinned tweet,
and it is the art contest.
So next Friday, we're going to give more boards away.
You can submit all the way up until the very end.
We're going to pick our our favorites
like we picked our favorite memes and if you like whatever one you want the one with the most likes
is going to win also so you can uh submit your art and we're going to have another contest so
very cool i'm excited in that ufo i'm stoked grant thomas says co-worker asked me to read a book
called freakonomics the book goes on to talk about the difference between causality and correlation.
They assert that access to abortion is the number one determining factor for crime.
It is drenched in progressivism.
Cheers from Canada.
Interesting.
Wow.
So that access to abortion results in more crime?
I don't know.
I don't know anything about this.
Or just less accountability.
I'm guessing less accountability.
I will order Freakonomics if you'd like to read it.
Yeah, I would love to read it.
Yeah, there was a...
I'll read it while I watch you guys skate.
There was a couple...
You tweeted something about, I don't know, some guy asking doctors.
I just commented a little bit about what my perspective is on that.
Yeah, it's an interesting topic.
Yeah, everyone...
This is a topic people need to talk about.
You're either on one side or
the other side and it's like we're not even allowed to like try to like bridge and figure
it out together we should at least talk about it i'm sick of that and there is a lot of issues
leading up to it you know but it's a it's accountability we got to remember be accountable
for actions and that's man that can be applied to just everything right now. Yeah, absolutely.
All right.
Villa Music Dude says, people need to hear this.
Please read each if possible.
My family history is ugly.
My parents came from Yugoslavia.
Years ago, we were under Ottoman Empire rule, enslaved from 14th to 18th century.
The term slaves comes from Slav.
Yep.
My great grandfather was in a Nazi camp in World War II.
Yugo went communist.
Each country wanted to be different for the sake of not being the other and went genocidal.
No one fought for us.
The U.S. bombed it.
FAM went to Canada and U.S.
We made it out alive.
Man, crazy, crazy.
Oh, dude.
This is... People don't want to know history.
Yeah, that's tough.
They just want to know the things that fit their narrative.
To give them what they want, to give them power.
To give them the power.
And that's what puts us in these positions in the first place.
Aaron Swever says,
This kind of stuff is why I've always taken to the high seas for my D&D stuff.
Honestly, everything I sail for is because I refuse to give the company money for politics.
I make sure to support those that I want to.
And it's crazy, too, because can't you, like, you don't need them and their rules to play D&D.
Not at all.
Not in the slightest.
Yeah.
They created D&D and then anyone can play D&D at any time.
You don't need to know anything about it at all.
It's literally just.
It's just making up a story.
It's hanging.
One person makes up a story.
The rest of people live the story.
It's almost like there's other games
that are like this it's it's a it's a where your friends hang out and someone you know it's like
any other party game yeah it could be you could compare it to a very high level game of charades
where one i guess a little more complicated i'm saying it's very high level yeah right all your
friends are sitting around one person does something and then you contribute to what is
going on yep you could literally play Dungeons & Dragons
without any rules just by someone telling a story
and then asking what you would do and
making jokes. What did we call it yesterday?
What did we change the name? Diversity
in Dragons. The Dungeons
are classist. The Dragons
are cool. They have diversity.
So I tweeted
about us playing Magic and
I'd say about 40% of the comments were like,
no, no, no, forget Magic.
Play Diversity and Dragons.
Yes.
I was like, well, maybe we should.
A 20 roll.
I know Ian's down.
We can make it.
He wants to be the DM.
Diversity and Dragons.
We'll do that.
In the coming months,
we're going to be adding a lot of stuff to the cast network.
I just came up with that.
That's the cast network.
It's not bad. I like it.
The Grizzly says, find different games
that are worth your support. While I prefer
games like RTS's
so Kings of War
is my game, just in case Warhammer
goes woke. It hasn't yet, but after D&D
I'm not taking any chance. Have fallbacks.
You just
gotta make a game that's called, like, Not Woke
the Card Game. And it's, like, literally but you just we're guaranteeing you know politics yeah it's just
talking about vampires i don't know vampire fights a werewolf or like true fantasy cards
just one of the all fantasy as soon as you you try to equate it to real life you're out
no one of my one of the issues i actually had with Magic is that their themes are all fantasy
for the most part. That's what I liked about it.
But they could do more sci-fi.
They could do not
just fantasy. Like, when they did
Innistrad, which for those that aren't familiar, it's like
vampires, and it was like, what was it, like
Victorian or colonial era? Victorian.
Victorian? Yeah, I'd say. That's awesome!
Yeah, it was cool. And it's very different from the knights in shining armor
fighting, you know, the white knight versus the lot of dragon yeah i know a lot of people that
started playing magic because of that exactly like vampires oh that's cool so they need even
though they've been around since the very first set but but i was thinking like magic would would
function really well with even modern warfare themes yeah you've been saying that for a while
not the political woke culture war stuff like yeah just tanks and
right soldiers tanks conflict countries not even necessarily real stuff but just more modern
you know whatever yeah all right let's see what we got here villa music dude says i'm first
generation american one of the first uh in to be to uh in to be college educated and my dad worked
so hard sacrificed himself to give us opportunity.
Our family has experienced communism, World War II, and genocide from Yugoslavia.
What other sacrifices do I owe now?
Hey, man.
None.
While my family history is not the same as yours, it's something I've been talking about
for a while as these lunatics gain power and repeal these laws.
Yeah.
I grew up hearing stories from my family, from my mom, about what it was like
when it was illegal to be in a
mixed-race relationship. And it was
very lucky that I didn't have to
grow up experiencing any of that.
Or people that have worked
and have gotten out of
situations that are truly
terrible, that we don't realize
how good it is here. And then
people come here and like, this is
life. That person down in Brazil
who was laughing at you. Like, all
Americans are rich. Like, they all have
running water. They all poop in toilets.
Like, what? We flush that clean
fresh water down the toilet. Right. Quite literally.
Yeah. We got a good one here.
Matt Wood says, since the far left
is determined to get rid of anything they deem to be
racist, why not cancel the DNC?
Its origins and actions during the civil rights movement were inherently racist.
Hold on.
I'm not done.
Except the far left has called for this before anyone brought it up.
Seriously?
Yes.
So it's not a joke.
It's not even, I think it's it's a good point but
it's it's the the progressives have literally said abolish the dnc because they're racist yeah
and someone posted this earlier like okay democrats if you want to ban statues how about
we ban the democrats and all of the progressives and dsa people were like yes please thank you yeah
so it's like oh they really they really do want to get rid of them but then the DNC is like oh wait we should squash that
I don't know if that's true or not
the DNC is completely crushed
so I wouldn't be surprised
I mean we'll see what happens man
everybody thinks they can read the future
but we're all looking at
I don't know
we think we know enough maybe we don't
so all I can really say is this
if you think you're going to win, you're in for a rude awakening.
You better get out there and vote.
I know a lot of people who said they would never vote who are gearing up to vote.
And it's weird.
Vote and get into politics.
Yeah.
Take over.
Take over.
That's what we need.
We need to take over.
We need young people to actually run.
People who care.
They want to make a difference.
Get into politics.
Definitely. All right. Let's's see what do we got here dane uh day nine s says there is a channel called knowing better he has a video
called in defense of columbus he does a pretty good job of showing a balanced view of columbus
i recommend it for people on both sides cool okay andrew daniel says i'm pitching the game uh
pitching the game companies right now for tim tim pool anti-communist skater oh science man says wait send us a copy yeah right for sure
we'll play it try it out science man says i just finished my uh kes c-e-d-h deck and i put like 2k
over the years and it hurts but i'm so close to selling it all kes is broken what does kes do
you can during each of your turns you can cast an instant sorcerer from your graveyard oh just oh
wow busted just anyone like you can choose any single one anything so you can use time warp and
have it it's busted no no no so you can literally just play time warp and win well i mean it
from the grave right but you can have all the different ones that don't exile when
you cast them i have the storm well it's not yeah that's a good point you put i as a storm out you
win boom yeah again uh broken i love how extremely esoteric that was a little bit i have no idea
what they're talking about but that this was for this person who super chatted right yeah it's true
it's a honor the super chat andrew daniel says it's basically tony hawk rebooted with poolies mad dunking on soy boys and they have they have skate
until you get to the soy king where you have to win by actually being a skater all right steve
smith says what you don't hear you don't hear anybody saying hillary would be doing better
right now what would the world be like right now if she won't no they are saying that somebody
somebody there's a bunch of tweets about it.
Today there were like 120,000 people would still be alive if Hillary was president. Oh, yes, because
she would use her witchcraft to stop the disease. No, because she's in cahoots with the Chinese.
She would have known what was going on and shut down the borders
long before anything even happened. Conspiracy. I don't know
if that's true. What she'd really be doing
is she'd be sitting over her cauldron
saying,
boil, boil, toil in trouble.
I have newt and whatever the rhyme is.
Yeah.
But then she would take, you know,
like, you know, some hair
and like a pound of flesh.
And then she'd go.
And then the gas would erupt
and then COVID would be gone.
Yeah.
Yep.
In a cloud of, puff of smoke.
She would hop on her broomstick
and fly around the country cackling.
Cackling,
because she really does cackle.
Yeah, she sure does.
And she'd be spraying the potion all over the place,
and all the people would become cured,
and then NPCs.
Right.
They'd be like, I'm no longer sick.
Vote Democrat.
Cured and complacent.
Cured and complacent.
Yeah, man.
Tom Matlock says, hey, Tim, can you give the Donald.win a shout out?
It's a huge free speech community of MAGA ex-Dams libertarians.
We love your show.
Soy Jesus is awesome.
Lydia is bae.
Spin the UFO.
Woo.
Woo, yeah.
So here's to you.
I frequent often all of the political subreddits i shouldn't say
all but there's like bernie yang democrat politics the donald was one of them and then youtube i'm
sorry uh reddit quarantined basically banning the don Donald because they were threatening cops apparently
which is ridiculous to think that the
Blue Lives Matter people are threatening cops.
And now Reddit is dominated with nothing but like
anti-cop, crazy cop threats
and the whole thing's fine. But they
made their own clone of
Reddit at the Donald.win.
And so someone super chatted that
and I will mention it simply because
I think it's important to have balance in your political
diet.
So when Reddit got rid of that, they created a huge nightmarish problem for regular Americans
because now you're not getting a healthy political diet.
I'm not saying that the people over the Donald are correct, but you certainly need to know
what they think about things.
Right.
You can't just go to r slash politics where they're like, Bernie's the best.
It's like, OK, I hear you. but have you heard anyone argue against those ideas you're going to
have a warped view of reality and they do yeah how are you supposed to steal man that it's not
gonna work oh check this out brandon says timcast irl is a lifesaver best show on the internet
without question correct love you guys number two is the timpool timcast wow look at that i'm

Coming June 2020, The Division 2, Minneapolis, DLC.
The Division is a video game about the post-apocalyptic world
and like trying to maintain the government.
And so it's Minneapolis. Good luck with that, man.
Very, very good. Let's move on to the next
meme. This one is
just great. I laughed so hard. This one's fantastic.

This next one with the seagull is from dash underscore photo.
And it's the seagull meme, which you're probably familiar with.
Yes.
Cocking its head all the way back, inhaling, and then screaming,
harumph I say, while wearing a beanie.
He has a beanie.
It's good.
It's perfect.
It's great.
Honorable mention.
Appreciate it.
Yes.
Now we have this one.
Oh my goodness.
This one's great. This is is good harumphs with attitude

yes do you know what disregard
the constabulary is supposed to mean
oh do tell do tell

what was the name of the album was F the
Police, right? Yeah, I think so.
Disregard the Constabulary.
Very nice. And that's from
atbrokeboysnoise. Very good.

This one was really clever. I like this one.
This is from atjess473
79263
Very nice, Jess. And it's grumpf,

Don't look, Tim.
I don't want you being influenced by... No, Tim.
Harumph I say.
That was good.

I do love this meme, so I thought it was really, really great.
This is fantastic, yes.
Yes, excellent work.
All right, let's see.
We have one more honorable mention, I believe.

Yes.
Oh, yes.
No, go up. Wait, go back, actually. Oh, yes. Oh, no. Go up.
Wait, go back, actually.
Go back one.
Yeah, there it is.
This one.
So this one wasn't necessarily, I guess it's a meme, but it's just so funny.
It uses the famous Deadspin video.
Right.
I don't think we can play the audio.
Oh, we can't?
No, they'll flag us.
Oh, all right.
Oh, man.
But this was Deadsp spin where they're making fun
of the Sinclair broadcasters
who all had the same script
yeah
but then it jumps to
independent media
let me uh
let me turn the audio on
real quick
alright here we go
believe this could happen
I have an optimism bias
on this one
drop it I love it.
All right.
I don't know if that song's copyrighted either,
so maybe we'll get in trouble for that.
It's EDM, so it's a bunch of nothing, I think.
It's EDM.
So excellent job on this,
but now we're going to go into the actual winners.
All right.
So now those were the honorable mentions.
Now we're going into the winners.
These are the placers.
This is the winning circle here.
Yes.
The first winner,
this was Adam's choice.
This was my choice.
Adam's favorite.

All right, Adam, tell us about this one.
Listen, I got to say,
all these memes made me laugh.
This one was so spot on.
It was so funny.
I mean, don't get me wrong.
I love Tim.
Tim and I are really good friends.
We've been friends for a long time.
We're going to remain friends for a long time.
But this is just so classic.
So this board, what is it?
The meteorologist or metro, metrologist.
I don't know. Metrologist. Metrologist.

the next one I believe
is my choice
from nihilistic
at nihilistic rag and
it says whenever Tim Pool says it's complicated
and it's the what was the
guy's name Hamilton Hamilton
Burress.
Yeah.
It says, why are you booing me?
I'm right.
And you know what?
That resonated with me.
Because I'm like, when people keep bringing up that I say it's complicated, I'm like,
it is.
It sure is. It is complicated.
That's why I'm saying that.
There is no easy answer.
I know.
So I love the meme.
Why are you booing me?
I'm right.
Hannibal Burress.
Hannibal Burress.
There you go.
So that's the nihilistic brag.
Yeah.
Very nice.
Very nice, LeJo.
The next meme, Lydia's Choice.
Yep.
You want to read this one?
Oh, I can't read it.
It's too far away.
Oh, that's right.
You can't see it.
I'm sorry.
So this is the Shen Comics meme, and it's from, I believe that's Milka Jug on Twitter.
He says, welcome to the gang, kid.
We've got Steel and Steve, Murder and and mike and harumph i say what did
tim do it's complicated so that was that was good i like this one too it's fantastic lydia chose that
this is my favorite one yeah so at milk a jug we will also be sending you a bright level of nuance
now we're going into the most liked this is the most liked out of all of them we we couldn't
choose it because it was the we we chose all the ones we liked outside of this one.
Otherwise, I think we would have done it.
It's fantastic.
It's amazing.
This is from Podcastage.
I believe you're hanging out right now.
I think I saw you in the Super Chat.
Oh, sweet.
And this is the Winnie the Pooh meme.
It's excellent.
And it's regular Winnie the Pooh.
Winnie the Pooh, you are wrong.
Fancy Winnie the Pooh, I disagree.
Very fancy monocle top hat.
That is a fallacy.
And then me. Harumph, I say. This was the mostoh. I disagree. Very fancy monocle top hat. That is a fallacy. And then me.
Harumph I say.
This was the most liked.
Look at this.
People said you are the winner in my estimation at least and the most likes.
Yep.
It had the most likes.
So podcast age, you have won the audience.
The popular opinion one.
Yep.
And to be honest, this was one of the first that was sent to me and we thought it was
one of the best as well.
Yeah, yeah.
But then when Adam went through it and said this is the most likes, we were like, well,
that's the winner.
So we got to pick different ones. However,
as much as we are
greatly impressed with all of your work,
one meme has been
risen above the rest.
One meme to rule
them all.
One meme to rule them all.
Get ready for this. This is from
at Chisholm.
It's at, I believe it's I Chexie or maybe L Chexie.
Yes. Says this was a labor of love.
I present to you the front page of the Criggsville
Chronicle. I emailed it to you too.
Yes. My stars
and garters. This is incredible.
Look at this. The Criggsville
Chronicle to the skies.
Harumphenberg departs on maiden flight.
It is the Hindenburg, but he form fit the graphic onto it and it says Harumphenberg. Now, hold on.
I'm going to read this here.
Can you read it?
Can you read it at all?
I'm pulling it close.
I don't know if you can read it, but I'm going to read the paper to you guys right now.
I got my monitor close up.
All right. So, gentleman broadcaster and wheeled plank enthusiast Baron Bonvini took to the skies today aboard his newly completed radio zeppelin, Harumpfenberg.
Equipped with the latest in broadcast technology and crewed by some of the finest in the industry, the team, along with their feline companion, Bucko, seems to dispatch the
latest and most up-to-date news
to the people of America and beyond.
Philadelphia starlet
and radio personality Lydia Sourpatch
had this to say.
Oh my stars and garters, this will
revolutionize the way we can deliver
current affairs. When asked
how this marvel of a machine was able
to take flight, Baron Von Beeney
informed the Chronicle that
it was through vegan ingenuity.
Dr. Krigler is our lead scientist
and engineer on the project.
It was through vegan science and engineering
he was able to refine
chow cheese in such a way that he was able
to produce large volumes of near
odorless gas that we used
to inflate the cells within the airship.
Without his genius,
we never would have gotten off the ground.
He truly is a messiah in his field.
Story continues on page two.
Harumphenburg to the skies.
Now listen, listen.
Beyond the craftsmanship.
My jaw hit the ground.
It's still in the other room where I first saw this.
Chet, the craftsmanship was incredible.
The commitment.
But it mentions a bunch of specific things that are really, really well-researched.
Chet watches the show.
You mentioned the Zeppelin thing about me, which is where for like is where for like seven years, Wikipedia claimed I invented a Zeppelin.
Which is amazing, by the way.
I don't want to let go of that.
But also the joke about Adam farting, farts not smelling, was really, really spot on.
You must really watch the show.
Seriously.
That's just incredible.
Chet, this is for you, my friend.
This board, this delicious, amazing Harumph board.
Congratulations.
Yeah, man.
Seriously.
And you know what? We should throw in a t-shirt. I don't know.
Whatever else we, you know, we'll throw whatever I'll jump in the box.
And I think, I think we're going to make this a poster. I think so. I want, I think he emailed
it to me. Um, but, uh, wow. I want it on my wall.
I want it. I want to get one. We'll put it up. Yeah. It is incredible.
And fantastic job. So, uh, wow. Yeah, that's amazing. It is incredible. Fantastic job.
Wow.
Chet, if you're following Adam, I believe.
He is, yeah.
He's got my email, too.
Perfect.
We want to make this a poster.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
It's hilarious.
It's so good.
It's so stinking cool.

they don't. On my other channels, so. But whatever. We love doing the show. And if you guys think we
do a good job, we don't have the same marketing budget that, say, CNN does. We got you guys.
We got you guys. Yeah. Yeah. So if you tell people the show's great and they come and watch and they
like it, then boom, there it is. But now you have a special treat coming your way. If that's all you wanted to do was come hang out
and listen to the culture talk and the news, then thank you for hanging out. But we always
end our Friday shows with a jam session. And I will be playing two, maybe three songs. I'm
actually going to play. Adam's going to be playing with a jam cam set up. I believe it's good to go.
Let me see if I can. There's the mic's not on yet or plugged in. I'm going to plug playing. We have the jam cam set up. I believe it's good to go. Let me see if I can. I think we've got to turn the mic on.
Yeah, the mic's not on yet or plugged in.
I'm going to plug it in now.
So you've been warned.
I'm going to be plugging in a mic, which may pop.
Just keep that in mind.
I don't think it'll be that bad.
Maybe it was worse for us.
But there you go.
You've been warned.
Can you turn that on quick?
Because it's buzzing in.
Is it on?
Is it good? Sounds good to me.
No, it's still buzzing. Something's buzzing.
It's plugged in. All right.
Oh, that was weird. Okay. Maybe your ears just got fried because of that. But now,
thanks for hanging out everybody. We're going to be live for another, like, probably 15 or 25 minutes.
Adam's going to jam a song.
I think then I'll jam a song.
And then we're just... The show's basically over for the most part,
but if you love the music and you want to hear us play,
then hang out because we're still here.
You ready?
Yeah, I'm ready.
So are you over to me?
It's all you.
What's up, everybody?
So I actually have a surprise guest.
You want to come sit over here?
So I'm going to play Find Yourself.
And Nisha joined me on Atomcast when they were gone.
And we played Find Yourself and she sang.
And someone suggested, oh, yeah, play Find Yourself.
But don't play without Nisha because it's not the same. Aw, so sweet. So, yeah, so we're going to jam out play Find Yourself, but don't play it without Nisha, because it's not the same.
Aw, so sweet.
So yeah, so we're going to jam out on Find Yourself.
She's going to back me up on it.
I dropped the pick. All the saints are calling all the masses.

That was Find Yourself with guest star Nisha.
And yeah, so Tim, I got to tell you, before you come over and play,
I down-tuned the guitar a little bit.
Can you fix it?
So if you're going to, I can.
Are you going to come play a song now?
Yeah.
Are you going to play another song?
I can play it any.
I don't mind.
That's fine.
I do like playing.
What should I play?
Will of the People, baby.
Is that what people want me to play?
I want to hear that song.
Will of the People is one of my favorites of yours.
I was going to play some new ones.
Ooh.
Do it.
Do it.
Do it.
Well, you said you're gonna play three songs.
I'll try to play one.
I am but an old man.
Funny.
You're younger than me.
I'm the old man in the house.
I'm too old to play some new ones.
I gotta wake up all early. Yep, sounds good. Enjoy.
Oh, do you need a pick?
Which one do you got?
I don't know.
I can't.
It's actually really busted.
I don't know if you can see it.
Am I sitting in the right place?
Yes.
How's it going, everybody?
I'm gonna play some music because it's Friday night and I haven't played.
This is a song that we're actually working on.
Nish is producing and recording it.
And we're gonna animate it.
And it's gonna be fun.
And I'll do my best to actually play it for you today.
And it'll probably be bad, so you've been warned. Out on the march in the morning
He called his soldiers down
To take aim at the traitors
To gun those rebels down
Now they'll face the consequences. They held themselves above. This is the will
of the people. Sad. I wish I could spare them, make them see the path. as that sounds a laugh to pass I know
what's needed for the good of my people to save them Out in the dark, without warning, he raised his fist above, let a cry to his people.
To tear those statues down, now they'll face the consequences. They held themselves above. This is the will of the people, he said.
I wish I could spare them, make them see the path. Tempting as that sounds, a laugh to pass And know what's needed for the good of the people
To save them
Now drop your arms and march for them
Turn against the wall
And bow your head
And speak your last words
Let them be said Out on the march in the morning
He called his comrades down
To take aim at the traitors
To gun those fascists down
Now they'll face the consequences
They held themselves above.
This is the will
of the people.
He said,
I wish
I could find it, a way
to restore peace.
Blessed were those
days we held
in vain.
Give it all for a chance at redemption
As the cycle turns again
You've seen it before, now you'll see it begin
You've seen the changes and the blood pooling
If you think it ends here, think again again Yes! Should I just go straight for the next one or should I? Yeah, the next one!
You know, I was going to play a different one, but I think I'll just play the other
one that you really like.
What's that one called?
Can I sing back upon you?
If you want to.
I forgot what the song is called.
It's a song you made for your bike.
So for the record, I'm going to sing over this a little bit.
I'm going to sing over this a little bit.
I'm going to sing over this a little bit.
I'm going to sing over this a little bit.
I'm going to sing over this a little bit.
I'm going to sing over this a little bit.
I'm going to sing over this a little bit.
I'm going to sing over this a little bit. I'm going to sing over this a little bit. I'm going to sing over this a little bit. I'm going to sing over this a little bit. I'm going to sing over this a little bit.
This is my favorite song of his.
This is my bottom.
I hope you're ready for some emo stuff.
Remember when we used to hope for peace
But villains weren't only on TV screens
My heart is made up of broken hopes and dreams
I take my place in mediocrity
taking more
taking spite
of this
focus on the ways
I really wish
you'd change that day
it's hard
to believe that you mean nothing to me
Cause you used to be everything
Remember when
We used to fight for peace But heroes were only on TV screens
The market's made up
Of broken hopes and dreams
To take your place in this story
One, two, three, four Take your place in this story
One, two, three, four
Taking more, taking spite of this
And focus on the ways
I guess you never change that day
It's hard to believe but you mean nothing to me
Cause you used to be everything
There are words in a book
About what we've been through
And there are lines in a script written for me and you. So take it all inside and pray it works. Another aching in your heart starts to burn. Take it more
Take in spite of this
And focus on the ways
I really wish you'd change that day
It's hard to believe
But I'm moving on with my dreams
Cause you were never there for me
There are words in a book
About what we've been through
And there are lines in a script
Written for me and you
So take it all inside and pray it works
Another aching in your heart starts to burn I love that song.
You want to play one?
I might play one more.
Half the chat was like, Tim!
And then the other half was like, save your voice!
We need you tomorrow!
Yeah, let me get that.
Oh, it was right to my hand.
I failed so miserably.
I'm going to play Taking It Back. I haven't played thisin' It Back.
I haven't played this one in a while.
And this is Tim's favorite song.
And, I don't know, it just popped in my head. I don't know.
If I was a younger man
I'd probably make the same mistake twice
The closer the heart is
The harder it becomes to do what's right
Even through the thick and thin
Secretly you want to win
Well, I'm taking it back, taking it back, taking it back
It's time to confess all sins
Well, before this world I've built crumbles away
I've spent some time lost in my mind, disappointed
Well, that's just the sting from expecting
And that's what you get
It's a simple state of mind
Drop a little bit of pride
I know it's exhausting
And taking it back, taking it back, taking it back
Is the only option.
Oh, before the world you fill crumbles away.
It started with cold feet, let me begin again.
Hindsight's obviously the clearest option.
I'm taking it back with all that I believe in.
Everything happens, I won't fight the reasons.
You say you've learned from your mistakes that you're experienced
And then comes the day from left field as they say has left you in a daze
Oh, it happens all the time A high tide of the mind
Struggling for oxygen
Oh, and taking it back, taking it back, taking it back
Is the only option
Before the world you build crumbles away
It started with cold feet, let me begin again
Hindsight's obviously the clearest option
I'm taking it back with all that I believe in
Everything happens, I won't fight the reasons
Woo!
Kind of got lost in that one a little bit.
Tim, you gonna play some more?
I can try and play one you all want him to play another one right?
I do
I like this guy's music
I can't wait for him to produce
he's coming over
yes yes
I don't know what to play though
oh who cares
play one of the new ones you were talking about
new ones
play one of them there new songs
you're listening to Timcast IRL.
Timcast.
Don't you lie.
I'm going to try and play a song that is harder for me to play live
because I don't really play it that often, but I like it anyway.
Oh, man, I'm a bit burned out, so you're going to get what you're going to get.
It might end up just being bad.
Don't lose your voice.
What? I know.
Light up to them In spite of
everything they
threw
Take down
the pictures
In spite of everything
you knew
This is not In spite of everything you knew
This is not the way out
For you to go
The brake lines, they shake the ground Breaking one by one
Bright-eyed and better now Broken bone by bone I love the rejects
And all those words you won't approve
Take down the pictures
And everything you thought you'd lose
This is not the way out
For you I'll fold
Break lines, they shake the ground
Breaking one by one
Bright eyed and better now Broken bone by bone Ooh Ooh Break lines, they shake the ground
Falling one by one
Wide-eyed and better now
Broken bone by bone
It's better now
It's better now
It's better now
It's better than you ever thought it'd feel again
Ooh
Ooh Now I got to work on.
That was so good, though.
All right, I'm going to play one more.
All right, I'm going to play one last one.
I'm going to call back onto the stage my wonderful wife, Nitra, here.
I'm going to chill out.

Hold on a second.
I love you.
You're great.
I love you.
I love you guys, too.
I'm a little buzzed, but that's the end of the song anyway.
I had fun there.
I don't often add that little bop-a-doo-bop part, but I felt it was necessary to finish it off.
But thanks for hanging out, everybody.
I'm going to go back over to the desk.
We're going to send you off to the weekend.
We're going to send you guys off.
Oh, that's funny.
Well, that was fun.
We played some music.
We lived.
We learned.
We laughed.
Oh, man, I'm having fun.
Adam got drunk.
I'm not.
I'm a little buzzed.
Yeah.
I'm not going to deny it.
It's Friday night after our sessions.
You know what we should do?
We should dim the lights, too.
I like playing music while I'm a little buzzed.
That'd be fun.
It's fun.
We had 20,000 people when you started.
Nice.
Maybe a new look.
And they all left.
Half of them left.
They all left. Their light is terrible. I'm out. No, it new look. And they all left. Half of them left. They all left.
They were like, this is terrible.
I'm out.
No, it's trash.
That's all right.
No, that's good.
Surprisingly, it was consistent, the viewership, so really, really awesome.
Thanks for hanging out, everybody.
There's still a lot of people here.
Thank you so much, guys.
That's amazing.
If you haven't already, you need to smash the like button.
I was ready that time.
Smash it.
Smash.
Smash.
But most of you probably did,
and I did three songs,
and for some reason, I always choose the
songs where I'm screaming the whole time. Oh, great.
Yeah, I was like, man.
And you know what? The song that I went over and joined you,
I was like, oh, this is the part where he
stops singing most times you play the song,
and I was ready, and I'm like,
oh, snaps! You, like, did the high pitch.
You did the high pitch. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You went nuts, dude! I saved that, but it's like, you know when you see I'm like, oh, snaps. You like did this. You did it. High pitch. You did the high pitch.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You went nuts, dude.
I saved that.
But it's like, you know, when you see people perform live, musicians.
Yeah, yeah.
Like you'll listen to the song on the radio and there's a part where they go really high.
But then when you watch them live, they won't do it.
Because they're touring.
They don't want to lose their voice.
Exactly.
I know.
And so I'm like, it's Friday.
I'm not going to sing till next week.
So I'm just going to go.
I'm going to go hard.
You talk all day long.
Yeah, but. You're a brave man, Tim. Belting. You're a brave man. until next week. I'm going to go hard. You talk all day long.
You're a brave man, Tim.
The high end is very different from just talking.
I'm actually really interested to see how we sounded
together.
We should just keep recording.
We put together a list of the songs
I have.
I probably have
that I could record right now, 20.
