If you have questions or concerns about your gambling or someone close to you, So Glenn Beck tweeted out earlier that Apple had removed all of his shows. Don't worry. Briefly, they were down, but now they're back. And Apple says it was one big mistake, but I really doubt it. I'm willing to bet it was a rogue employee who is fervent and anti-Trump and far left
Starting point is 00:01:14 who probably took down his podcast, or it was a top-down effort to put a little fear into those who would speak out against the machine. As we enter 2024, you know things are going to get very spicy when it comes to censorship. And already we have a ton of super chats before the show even started of people saying they're struggling to find this show. Well, yeah, election season is upon us. And so it's going to become increasingly difficult to find our clips, our show, etc. So if you like the show and you want to push back, take the URL right now, post it wherever you can. Don't let them try to throttle and suppress us or
Starting point is 00:01:51 anyone else. But we'll talk about that as we start entering this election season. We got a lot of news pertaining to what's going on. There's more talk about what's going to happen with Donald Trump, his personnel and his lawyers as they're ordered to surrender. They're going to be placed in county jail, which will be a site. And it's going to be very interesting as to how the Secret Service actually negotiates this. And there's a lot of questions about whether Trump actually can be charged for things he did as president under the Constitution. And then we've got more polls. Vivek Ramaswamy is in second place in many of these polls
Starting point is 00:02:25 in an interview he actually mentioned that if trump were to be removed he could be the front runner he didn't say that as something good he said it was a bad thing that he needs to actually earn the trust of people and win honorably but they could you know it would serve him to have trump removed because he in some in some instances he'd be in first place but i like vivek so we'll talk about that plus ladies and gentlemen target has lost money in its sales for the first time in six years. Bud Light is struggling. They lost hundreds of millions of dollars. The Bush family wants to buy back the brand.
Starting point is 00:02:55 And Sound of Freedom has surpassed Indiana Jones. The reason why they're going after Trump with pure force is because they're panicked that they're losing. And the only thing they have left is raw power, which can be terrifying. But I think we're winning. And we'll talk a lot more about that before we get started. Head over to cast brew dot com. Hey, buy our coffee in honor of Roberto Jr. He's no longer with us. He died suddenly. It's unfortunate. It's some kind of heart defect.

Starting point is 00:04:31 We got Phil Labonte. Hello, everybody. I'm Phil Labonte, lead singer of the heavy metal band All That Remains, anti-communist, and counter-revolutionary. What's going on, Ian? Not too much, man. Just lifting weights, loving life. You know how it is, Phil. I know how it is. Hi, everybody. Ian Crossland. Happy to be here. Let's rock and roll. He actually was lifting weights earlier. He's chasing the macros every day. I went from 15-pound dumbbells to 25-pound dumbbells today.
Starting point is 00:04:52 They came in via UPS, and the UPS guy is going, and he puts them down, and he's like, I don't know what that is. It's really heavy. And then Sarah's trying to bring it in. She's like, what is it? I think it was 50-pound weights Yeah. It was, I was, I was surprised how easy it was. You know, you train, you get ready for it. And then when you go there, it's not as hard as you think it's going to be. That's right. Get it. Right wing, right wing.
Starting point is 00:05:14 Hello. I am surge.com. I'm excited for the episode. Good to see you Kingsley. Let's just jump right into it. Here's the story, my friends, and let the censorship begin. In, I think it was 2018, they went after Alex Jones. They went after, who else did they ban?
Starting point is 00:05:30 Laura Loomer, Miley Anopolis. Who else got caught up in that? It was a big wave of people that got... Sargon, he got it early, I think. I don't think he was part of that wave. Paul Joseph Watson, I think they went after him. They got rid of his Instagram. And it was a bunch of just pictures of him, like, smoking a cigarette with a sunset behind him.
Starting point is 00:05:50 And it's like, that was, just gotta go. You got rid of him. Well, here's a story. Glenn Beck's show removed from Apple Podcasts. Tech Giant gave the podcaster no warning prior to his show's removal. Scary stuff. He put out this video saying, what's the issue? In a video shared to X, the podcaster said the email from Apple's podcast team contained a link,
Starting point is 00:06:07 though the link brought him to another page informing him his podcast has been removed from the platform. We found an issue with your show, the Glenn Beck program, which must be resolved before it's available on Apple podcasts. He said, I cannot imagine what they're basing this on. The podcaster said Apple's removal of the Glenn Beck program was crazy and encouraged people to share his post and demand Apple podcasts reinstate the show. If this was not Glenn Beck, if it was any other podcast, they would not be restored. It's only because it's a high profile personality in political commentary. I bet Apple nukes tons of shows all the time and they're smaller shows that maybe you'll get only a few thousand downloads per episode.
Starting point is 00:06:46 No one knows it's happening. Glenn Beck said, looks like Apple restored my 3000 plus episodes to their platform, but still don't have clear answers as to why this happened. Hope to have an update for you tomorrow on radio. I want to thank everyone on the left, right and everyone in between who spoke up today. I wish I had better answers from Apple on what happened, but you gave me hope that the issue of censorship is still bigger than politics there were a lot of people uh on the left who were saying okay look man like you know you might not like glenn beck but that's kind of crazy they nuked his show it's weird that it seems like they've got like a kill switch for essentially entire channels i mean well i mean maybe it makes sense they're rogue employee like with uh when
Starting point is 00:07:22 donald trump got banned from twitter remember that yeah but there's even still it's like if there if there is a rogue employee that's actually doing the you know shut it off or whatever it seems like it's something that's fairly simple for someone to do as in it doesn't take there's not a lot of backups there's no doesn't seem like there's checks and any kind of checks or anything whatever you know i would think that it would be like either one of the lead developers or like some, one of the owners of Spotify. Was it Spotify? Apple Music? Is that music?
Starting point is 00:07:50 So it's like usually most employees don't have access to shutting off channels completely unless you're like a really well-trusted, respected administrator. But even then that would be a big risk for the company to give an administrator that kind of ability. So I'm thinking like someone up in the development chain must've,
Starting point is 00:08:04 which means that it went through a series of calls. Like it wasn't just someone just decided to do it, that someone would have told someone to do it. And then they went ahead and pushed it. And then they temporarily made it invisible to Glenn. He thought it was deleted, but they just had it in this mode until they could resolve something. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:08:19 This happens a lot. And I wonder if this is a shot across the bow for conservative commentary and and glenn beck being a conservative commentator but also obviously anybody who is supporting trump in any way pushing back on the narrative machine i saw this clip vivek ramaswamy was talking to neil cavuto and cavuto was like donald trump's now been indicted you know 90 some odd counts and vivek was like clearly it's political and cavuto goes you don't think even one of them i mean certainly and and vivek is like no cavuto argues why trump actually is guilty because there's so many charges vivek makes an excellent point saying we cannot become a country that simply says because there are so many charges one of them must be true no
Starting point is 00:08:59 you were innocent until proven guilty but that shows you where Fox News is at. Obviously, Fox News is anti-Trump, pro-establishment. They get rid of Tucker Carlson. We know what's going on. Now they're arguing that Trump must be guilty in some way. Then they go after people like Glenn Beck. They're going to try and take down independent media. We've already got people in the super chat before the show started saying they can't find this show. Well, yeah, this happens all the time. It should appear on the front page of YouTube when you go there if you're subscribed. A lot of people are like, I can't find it. We've actually had people say they go to the YouTube channel for TimCast IRL and there's no live stream.
Starting point is 00:09:38 It's just not there, not visible for them, even though we're live with, you know, 30 plus thousand people watching. If you go to YouTube.com slash live, typically every night we are the number one live show, but people still have a hard time to find. That's one way you can find it. We're going to get in 2024 and you better believe it. They're going to get rid of anybody. Here's what I think. If you're pro DeSantis, you'll probably be okay. If you are pro Trump, you will probably be hidden. I think people, if they want to watch the show, can go to timcast.com every night at 8 p.m., and then you can link to it from the website's front page. So start going, if you're having trouble, if you ever think you have trouble or you don't want to ever have trouble, go to
Starting point is 00:10:15 timcast.com at 8 o'clock Eastern. It's right there on the homepage. You can link it through to the YouTube if you want to watch it from YouTube, or you can just watch it on the website. I think, though, to the Apple point specifically, conservatives have this kind of consensus of thinking that, you know, corporations are untouchable because we all worship at the altar of the free market. Right. But what we're seeing is that these corporations are taking our freedoms. They're acting as tyrants. I think we need to get a lot more comfortable on the right with, you know, trust busting certain corporations or really enforcing certain laws and just ensuring that they are protecting the liberties that the Constitution entrusts to every single American. It's a bigger issue of the Republicans. They don't do anything. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:56 No, they write strongly worded letters. That's right. That's what our party does. I mean, just really good at it. Yeah. No, we are. I mean, in the wake of the Fulton County indictment, all we're doing is tweeting. We see, you know, Kevin McCarthy and various GOP leader just putting out statements
Starting point is 00:11:09 and fiery tweets. There's zero action. And I think the base wants action. The American people see this stuff. They're enraged. They're infuriated. They want retribution. That's why they love Donald Trump. But I think they're frustrated with the kind of establishment Washington, D.C. cartel that's just doing nothing. What kind of action could people take, like legal, you know, righteous action? Because I'm racking my brain. What could people do? In terms of corporations? I mean, there's a lot that you can do. Like these corporations are too massive, number one. They collude with the government. There needs to be a lot more barriers there that kind of we saw with the Twitter files,
Starting point is 00:11:43 that the government was actually asking Twitter to do things. And then they were, you know, complying in a sense. So we need to be sure that that there are protections in place so that that kind of collusion can't happen. So discover the magic of Bad MGM Casino, where the excitement is always on deck.

But like, so like, make them, that's, yeah. What would that look like, though? Like, putting it, making them do it in public? I mean, there's always, you can't force people to talk in public. Yeah, I mean, I think there needs to be a period of a lot of transparency, and we're seeing a little bit of that with the weaponization committee that's happening in Congress right now. We're seeing some of these files start to come out and we're getting evidence. So I think we need more of that. I think we need to kind of uncover what's been done. And then we can kind of go after these corporations and make sure, you know, that they are serving the interests of the American people. When our founders conceptualize what a corporation would be,
Starting point is 00:13:26 it was kind of akin to a British charter. It had to serve the common good. It had to be publicly beneficial to the people that lived in that country. And I think now, if you look at most modern corporations, I mean, they act as tyrants. They don't serve the American people at all. When did that happen? It was like 1850s.
Starting point is 00:13:42 When did the modern corporation take over? It was, let's see. at all when did that happen it was like 1850s when did the modern corporation take over it was uh let's see the first american corporation was organized in 1894 as orange county title company succeeding the two businesses uh the the business of two title abstract companies founded in 1889 and operating in orange county california is that that's like right before rockefeller like got a stranglehold on Standard Oil on the country through Standard Oil. And then they eventually broke up Standard Oil, turned it into like six other oil companies
Starting point is 00:14:09 that Rockefeller still had a piece of. So it didn't really slow down. And now you have multinational corporations too. Like you have corporations that are working at the behest of the global elite, not even just American-centric or focused. They're caring about what Klaus Schwab wants. And you can't... So for the American government to go to BlackRock and tell it to do something,
Starting point is 00:14:27 BlackRock's like, well, where's their headquarters? Is it even in the US right now? I'm not sure. Is it in Switzerland or whatever? But they don't have to... Because they're not American. But then so we could be like, you can't operate here unless you play by our rules, which as long as we're a strong, robust economy and a force that has bargaining power. if if people don't take the u.s seriously and we tell google like hey unless you free your software code you can't function the united states they might just shut down the united states so it's like and we could do shows of force like that like we could tell apple hey like no or amazon you know no more manufacturing in china and if they do we seize their boat when it arrives at a port in california i'd love to see if at any
Starting point is 00:15:03 point it was possible Republicans actually exert some kind of power. They just don't. Well, yeah. Honestly, I think that that's asking more than is reasonable to expect. And what would you get from libertarians? They would be even worse with exerting power. They'd be like, no, it's
Starting point is 00:15:19 against our ethos. You'd get a Dave Smith X-Space at 8 o'clock PM Eastern right while we're doing our show dave yeah they're doing a live space you libertarians uh no i'm just but like if libertarians got elected they'd be like oh oh drat they're they're doing awful things again well what okay what could they do exactly like well firstly why do you think that there's such inactivity on side of both political parties and secondly what both yeah no they just indicted trump's lawyers oh i mean right they're playing hardball like okay well the reason why there's demonic activities on the side of democrats is because they're evil power
Starting point is 00:15:55 hungry psychopaths and the reason why there's inaction on the part of the republicans is because they're actually democrats who are power hungry hungry psychopaths but they're only wearing republican masks so the uniparty bought out by the corporations and they're actually Democrats who are power-hungry psychopaths, but they're only wearing Republican masks. So the Uniparty bought out by the corporations and they're just floating, you know, while we're all down under the deck trying to put the fire out. There's a handful of Republicans who are legitimate. Some of them are more libertarian leaning. Some of them are MAGA or anti-establishment. But what? There's like 20 of them.
Starting point is 00:16:20 Yeah. The other option is boycott. You know, but that's only because. Boycott what? Boycott Apple. But the boycotts are working. Yeah, exactly. them yeah the other option is boycott you know but that's only can we cut what boycott apple boy but the boycotts are working yeah disney disney's shares are are are at risk because of news reporting about there's another boycott happening and they're starting to freak out target lost for the first time in six years massive amounts of money and their stock dropped
Starting point is 00:16:38 by like 27 percent but light is on the verge is collapsing collapsing. That's fair enough. But Apple, there was one point in the past couple of years where Apple had more actual cash than the federal government. That's wild. Like that was a real thing. So whereas, yes, I get like boycotts can move the needle and stuff. I'm not sure Apple is who. Yeah, I don't want to be able to. Because apple's looked at as more of a global company too they're they're selling iphones all over the you know the whole world so i mean and hey i'm i'm i'm only telling you my impression it's i was wrong about the bud light
Starting point is 00:17:18 uh boycott in the first place i didn't think it was a good idea and apparently i was wrong about that so fair enough but i think apple's Apple's a bit of a different company. Yeah, I'm not. It's not. I'm not too concerned with Apple. Only because Glenn Beck, they got rid of his podcast. That is the one that came out of my mouth. But any kind of multinational company or American company that's actually de facto multinational,
Starting point is 00:17:37 that's betraying our interests, we could boycott or at least attempt to. But then if these companies get too integrated in our society and you try and boycott them like i want to boycott microsoft are you kidding me like all my computers are running windows right now i don't know you can get ubuntu and use wine i've tried that but i can't game it's not good yeah for those not familiar wine is a way to run windows programs on linux it's just not good yeah but i love ubuntu and it is really is awesome that that people have have built this open source and a lot of free software on the platform. It's cool. It's cool that it exists.
Starting point is 00:18:11 The only thing I know about Ubuntu is that's what I used when I was mining Ethereum. Well, I'll tell you about it. It makes tons of money for massive multinational corporations. Because when they need to operate point-of-sale terminals or self-checkouts, why pay pay for a license for windows on your as your operating system when linux is free so a bunch of them they use linux a bunch of servers use linux because they're like free software there you go saves i shouldn't say makes the money but saves the money so we got we got this other news update
Starting point is 00:18:39 i want to pull up this story we got this tweet from mike benz i hope y'all are ready for next year he says this is how self-sabotagingaging Linda's new crop of censorship shills are of their own company. Let me slow down there a minute. This guy's pointing out that Twitter has begun the process. I'm sorry, X has begun the process of hiring election integrity team members for 2024, which means censorship. They're hiring censors. He was going to mention several of these individuals have previously expressed interest for the Twitter killer, not wanting to work for here. He says, this guy who seems to dream of his own company
Starting point is 00:19:14 being killed or reverted to Twitter 1.0 censorship even positively promotes that under Linda, they're getting the band back together. The band of policy team means misinfo policy. She's bragging the old censors are back okay do we trust this linda what is her name yakarino yeah is that no yeah yeah that's her name trust her i don't know no i mean it should be assumed that just right off the bat like you assume you don't trust her. Now, I'm not saying that it's not possible that she could earn trust or that it's not possible that this could be much ado about nothing, but you don't trust her off the bat.
Starting point is 00:19:57 The truth is you should never have to trust your social media. You should be able to verify the code and know exactly what the media is doing. Secondly, they can ban you at any time for any reason everywhere you go so there's no reason in wondering or be getting angry about it if and when it happens linda iaccarino and elon musk can ban you off x right now i don't you bring up like verifying the code a lot how many i wonder how many people actually could verify the like i wouldn't be able to verify any code like even if they made the code open source i can't like i don't know right you might be able to run it just chat gpt like an ai program to like translate the code for you and let you know what it's saying well okay maybe even your
Starting point is 00:20:33 average person isn't going to be able to verify how many how many lines of code do you think twitter is i think 18 000 i'm just the algorithm and so you're still back to trusting someone to tell you that, oh, this is safe. Yeah, yeah. So I mean, the reason I bring this up is because you mentioned verify the code and have open source code. And I still feel like your average person is still going to have to rely on someone else
Starting point is 00:21:00 that they trust because they're not, it's like, that's like being like, oh, we'll make sure that, you know, put it, make it available so that way people can read it but then like half the world's illiterate or whatever it doesn't read that language you would get like um 10 000 developers that all have agreed that the code says this so it's kind of hard to have them all lie that they would be that kind of trust so it's like trust in the fortification of the mass mentality i think what would end up happening is you'd get 80% of corporate coders
Starting point is 00:21:25 who align with the Democrats, the establishment, the machine would all come out and say, everything's fine. It looks good to me. Then you'd get a small faction of people being like, I don't know, this line of code looks like they're spying on you and stealing your info. Then the corporate press would say far right neo-Nazis claim code is stealing your info and deranged conspiracy theory. I'm not a hundred percent sure that something just because of the level of complexity if the average person can't simply understand it it might not actually make more clarity by making the information available and not saying not saying that they're not saying that that it's a bad idea that it must be kept secret but i'm saying that i don't think i don't see that
Starting point is 00:22:02 as a solution because i don't think that it's it would make more, you know, add more clarity. The average person is going to say, I have no idea. Yeah. And you're going to get people who will lie. They'll just take a snippet of code and say this actually does this. And then they could be lying. Yeah. It may add more vectors.
Starting point is 00:22:14 But when you find out someone was lying, then that destroys their credibility. Now, look, Joe Biden stated on camera that if you don't fire the prosecutor, you're not getting the billion dollars. We know for a fact he did it, and they're still saying it's a conspiracy theory. Well, you're right. There was another story I saw earlier. Lab leak theory is still labeled as misinformation according to these universities.
Starting point is 00:22:36 I just hang with developers, and so they don't lie. They read code. They know exactly what it's doing, and they'll be like, yo. And then they make noise about it. Mine's the whole essence of it is free software code, open source code. Like those are like my bros.
Starting point is 00:22:49 I would feel very, very good if the code was available to peruse. Yes, I agree. It should be publicly available. More importantly, voting machine software should be publicly available information and none of this would be an issue. Like there would be no indictment. They'd be able to look at it and be like, okay, well don't know but they keep it a secret massive private it's a first of all dominion is a multinational corporation is it not i assume so it is yeah it's international it's an international company that
Starting point is 00:23:17 handles our elections i mean that just seems like a really bad idea yeah like i'm not saying dominion did anything wrong i'm just saying the united states should sever all ties with international organizations that handle our voting and it should be law listen up republicans pass this bill this software code for voting machines should be public available have a nice day that's it there's what's the argument against it yeah i i mean the i i don't have any kind of issue with it being available. That would be awesome. There are people that, I assume that there might be problems in the fact that it's proprietary, like if you have intellectual property issues with that, right?
Starting point is 00:23:56 Too bad, go home. You should not be able to operate an election. Oh, for election, fair enough. Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, you can make software code that people don't get access to but you're the election machine all software on it the code must be publicly available for people to review and see sure yeah if there's little lines in there that let people flip tallies and stuff uh i'm gonna point you to what's that guy's name that uh software developer
Starting point is 00:24:21 that testified in congress that he wrote a program to flip votes 51-49. This is like from the year 2000. I'll pull it up in a minute. I mean, I think like, too, we're going to see a lot of issues in 24 just in terms of voter trust. Like there are so many members of the base out there, especially Trump's base, that just don't believe that their 2024 ballot is going to be counted correctly. And that is a massive problem. And Republicans, like you said, don't do anything. They don't seem to have any plan to address that. We haven't changed any of these voter laws that the Democrats switched in the dead of night in 2020.
Starting point is 00:24:54 They're still on the book. Seriously, there's been like, I don't know who to blame or I don't know who to look to to get this stuff done. I figure Ron McDaniel, I guess. to look to to get this stuff done i i figure ron ronald mcdaniel i guess if there has been no motion no movement no effort taken by the republicans to make sure that they're in a different position uh strategically for this election then i mean then then all of the talking about donald trump or or talking about des or Vivek or whoever, all that stuff is just horse crap. It doesn't matter if the Republicans have not taken measures to prevent the type of electioneering that happened last night.
Starting point is 00:25:38 Dude, let's pass a bill. I think this is Thomas Massey's ballgame, and I would love to get Kevin McCarthy involved. I don't know. I haven't talked to him. Matt Gaetz,game, and I would love to get Kevin McCarthy involved. I don't know. I haven't talked to him. Matt Gaetz, I'm sure, would love to hear this. Any bill that gets passed has to get through the Senate and through the president. And anything that might help the Republicans is not going to happen. So you have to think of things.
Starting point is 00:25:57 If the Congress right now has power to do things like affect the purse strings, so they cannot fund stuff. So if there's something that they want to affect, they can be like uh um the purse string so like they'll they cannot fund stuff so there's something that they want to affect they can be like well we're not going to pass pass a bill that pays for it but if congress just passes a bill that you know is a bill that in the hopes of becoming a law the senate's not going to pass it and and and biden's not going to sign it so passing a bill would be a way even even talking about passing a state level. Also, yes, state level their own election. So the problem is our people in various even red states aren't mobilized. This is, I think, been a problem on our side for a long time. The left being an activist, being political is almost their hobby. Our people, you know, we do our nine to
Starting point is 00:26:39 five. We kind of check out. We're not involved in what's going on in our community at all. So I think that's a disadvantage. I think also we don't have enough lawyers on our side. It seems that they have just endless lawyers that are willing to litigate and fight this stuff. So I always tell people, get off the sidelines. You have to run for school board. You have to be an election poll watcher. Do whatever you can because too many of us are just totally checked out and we're asleep at the wheel. You think it's cool for people to run for school board if they don't have kids? why not i mean if you're involved in your community absolutely so you think you think that people would be less likely to on the right to go
Starting point is 00:27:14 and vote because they feel that their election would their vote's not going to be counted is that what you're saying i've talked to a lot of people that feel that way really i've spoken to people that have said the opposite because they're like i'm gonna go out and go vote first thing the first day on paper or whatever i hope so i don't know just i just i hear kind of like discouragement i think is the overwhelming sense like i i hope my vote counts this i hear i hear the opposite there's there's a meme where it's from the wildfires in new york and then the camera's panning past like the williamsburg bridge and everything's orange then it shows trump dancing and then it's and then scrolls scrolls past him and says don't care still voting trump
Starting point is 00:27:48 what i'm hearing all the memes are people just saying whenever they're like trump did this trump did that the elections rigged whatever people just say don't care still voting trump yeah yeah true that's what i'm saying yeah that's the meme i mean if that meme holds trump wins yeah yeah if people are just like don't know don't care i'm gonna vote from anyway i think too they'll be pushed to act and to vote the more he becomes indicted or just like has the doj totally weaponized against him this is gearing people up for retribution they're ready for it i just think i just think it doesn't matter at all we saw how bad it was in 2016 it's been ramping up 2016 the democrats screamed until blood sprayed from their eyes that donald trump was a soviet spy who stole the election all of the craziest conspiracy nonsense
Starting point is 00:28:33 2020 trump and his supporters believed and screamed to the high heavens there was voter fraud to the point where you had many people saying trump was secretly still the president it's insane 2024 is gonna be no different. No different whatsoever. I've got the name. Worse. It'll be different in the sense that it will be escalating. This developer's name is Clinton Eugene Curtis,
Starting point is 00:28:53 and he testified that Congressman Tom Feeney asked him to build a prototype software package that would secretly rig an election to sway the result 5149 to a specified side. He testified that in front of u.s house judiciary members in ohio and the youtube video is called american election hacker testifies it's by an account called hack 247 if you want to watch the video he is almost giddy letting people know let's get political my friends we got the story from the post-millennial trump
Starting point is 00:29:22 giuliani and others to be booked at Fulton County Jail. Suspects in Fulton County are booked and arraigned on two separate occasions. So according to standard procedure, Donald Trump will be in county lockup, a not so special prison. The left calls it decrepit and say people die there. So I have a few questions. How do first, how do they handle something like this but more importantly what would happen and everyone's saying it won't happen so fine sure whatever i'm not saying it
Starting point is 00:29:51 will happen i'm saying question what would happen if with these charges donald trump his associates or any one of these individuals refuses to go to georgia and surrender. What happens then? Fugitive charges? So there's interesting constitutional provision. And it's really just absolutely hilarious that the armchair people on Twitter who have no idea what's going on in this world and think they know everything. And that's not everybody.
Starting point is 00:30:17 I'm just saying they exist. One person brought up a really good point saying the Constitution says if someone flees from justice, then the feds can intervene to bring the person back to that state. But what if you're not in the state and weren't in that state and the state accuses you of a crime? The legal argument is that you are fleeing from justice by not surrendering. But this would mean if Donald Trump, Sidney Powell, Jenna Ellis or any one of these individuals refuses to surrender, their state would have to cooperate. Law enforcement would have to be sent
Starting point is 00:30:45 out by Joe Biden to take in a former presidential administration official or lawyer and bring them to Georgia to be brought to jail. What happens? It's interesting. Ron DeSantis said that he would not assist in any extradition of Donald Trump. Donald Trump, of course, is currently in Bedminster. But what if he goes down to Mar-a-Lago? It would be awesome, Tim. It would be just the most awesome thing ever. Well, see that it would,
Starting point is 00:31:12 I mean, and it would be terrible for the country, I'm aware. And there are people that are mad. I don't know if that's true either. I think it would probably be pretty bad. I think see how far it goes. Like push the envelope, make them come get you.
Starting point is 00:31:22 I want those office. I want the feds. I think they should have to go serve documentation to Trump. I think Donald Trump not going to get a fair shake in Bedminster. He's up in New Jersey. Good luck with that. I think Trump, his perfect play is to go to Florida, make DeSantis put his money where his mouth is.
Starting point is 00:31:44 And this is not a dig on DeSantis. It's like, do you have the integrity to uphold what you've said? But more importantly, if Georgia has an issue, they don't deliver this via press conference on TV. If they're going to arrest Trump, they have to go to his residence and serve him the arrest documents. It's such a strange phenomenon that people are like, Donald Trump should go surrender.
Starting point is 00:32:04 Yeah, if they serve him legal paperwork and say, This is it's such a strange phenomenon that people are like Donald Trump should go surrender. Yeah. If they serve him legal paperwork and say, hello, Donald Trump, here's the legal paperwork. You can take a copy of it, bring it to your lawyers. You have to you can surrender in 10 days or you will be arrested. All right. What's happening now is this lady goes on TV and says we expect them to surrender in 10 days. That's not legal. You can't go on TV and be like, I'm suing them. It's like, okay, well, until I actually have legal documents saying I'm being sued with a court
Starting point is 00:32:29 signature and all that stuff, you're not doing anything. For all Trump knows, there was never even a grand jury. How's he supposed to know that? How's he supposed to, for all he knows, prosecutor went on TV and is just like, come on down, Trump, and she can take a picture with him and smile, get an autograph. I'm not literally suggesting that's what she's doing. But for Trump and all these defendants, their lawyers are going to have to be served some kind of paperwork or documentation. And I think the smartest play for Trump is to go to Mar-a-Lago and just say, if you are charging me, you can deliver the documents to my residence where I will answer for them. And then we will discuss terms of either surrender or a legal challenge. Yeah. And I mean, Trump was acting in his federal capacity during this entire thing as like a federal officer. So I'm not even convinced that a state has the
Starting point is 00:33:16 authority necessarily to arrest him for something like that. I guess we'll see. It might go all the way to the Supreme Court. But what they're doing to these folks is just despicable. I mean, my colleague, Jeff Clark, is one of the ones who's been indicted along with President Trump. Acting assistant attorney general. Yeah. I mean, wow. That's like the second law. Wow. No, it's absolutely bonkers. And he was just providing legal advice. Right. He was just telling Trump, this is how I think that you could apply the law. And for that crime, which is not even a crime right they're saying it is it's totally preposterous well jenna ellis i think is the funniest because she's being charged with just being trump's lawyer right that's that's basically it by just being his lawyer they're getting they're
Starting point is 00:34:00 charging her with uh rico yeah i mean that's, I firmly believe it's about intimidation. Like I said last night, it's about the establishment wanting to intimidate the population, including lawyers, you know, and anyone that might run in the future. And they're taking them out of the game, too. Like, these are talented people that are going to be put on the sidelines while they have to deal with all of this that's the point but i want to i want to speculate here what do you think happens if they don't surrender is it something really boring like a guy shows up knocks on the door and says i have a warrant for your roast and they go okay and then they get in a car and they drive off i don't know who the secret service actually answers to because if the secret service answers to donald trump the secret service are armed and they'll be they'll have plenty of of gear to actually pose a serious threat so if anyone
Starting point is 00:34:56 is gonna go pick up donald trump and the secret service actually answers to him as opposed to answering to dc and they listen to him and he says, don't let them come take me. Well, you're going to have a SWAT team with a gunfight with an FBI hostage, hostage rescue team in a fight with secret service and gunfight with secret service over Donald Trump. If that's,
Starting point is 00:35:16 if that's how war, world war three or whatever starts, I never saw that coming. Civil war. Well, that's how civil wars are. You never know. I mean,
Starting point is 00:35:24 I, and this is all just you know a dude that yells at a stick for a living talking out of his ass so take it for not like it's worked with which is nothing it's worth nothing but i mean you know like i i don't know how the the the secret service how the the yeah what the command structure is exactly so i don't know what happens but it if it is it's possible but like because the secret service is supposed to protect donald trump and even if donald trump does get picked up and goes to jail none of that takes away the fact that he's got secret service protection for the rest of his life so that means
Starting point is 00:35:59 that there's going to be secret service he's going to have to be in a special jail some type of special jail and secret service is going to have to rotate in a special jail some type of special jail and secret service is gonna have to rotate in and out of his cell because they're not gonna leave him alone with a cellmate you can't like he's got secret service protection for the rest of his life you know but the secret service his own secret service if he were to start committing murder like starting to murder people on the street his own secret service would have to stop him i would imagine they don't serve him they serve the law and the in the post president i i don't know that the secret service is obligated i would assume the guy the human being that is the secret service officer like or whatever if if donald trump
Starting point is 00:36:34 decided to start just mowing people down i assume he would stop him that being said i don't think the secret service is any more obligated to stop someone that's committing a criminal act than the regular police are. And the regular police are not obligated. The Supreme Court has decided that they're not. So I don't know that they would be obligated to stop him. But I would assume that a normal human being in the role of Secret Service officer would probably stop the former president from killing people. There are people right now saying on Twitter that to end this right now, Donald Trump need refuse to surrender publicly state he will challenges to the Supreme Court that one,
Starting point is 00:37:18 the actions they're challenging him on are protected as he was president at the time and that the leaking of the indictment before the grand jury voted proves that this is a political conspiracy to steal or seize power there's a legal argument not the way i described it there's a legal way to describe it improper unconstitutional actions or something like that some people have said trump can trump and the republicans can end this right now by doing what needs to be done i don't know if that's if i agree with that i don't know what would happen. I have no idea.
Starting point is 00:37:46 It's entirely possible that what the Democrats are trying to do is muster up some kind of reaction so that they can use it to justify more. If Trump doesn't surrender, they then go and say he's a fugitive from justice, and that instantly justifies the removal of his name from the ballot or something like that. Maybe Trump says, okay, we go to court. Then he
Starting point is 00:38:05 files a bunch of extensions. He files to have a transfer to Fulton out of Fulton County to federal court like what Mark Meadows is doing. And that delays the process until the election takes place and his name is in the ballot. That might be the correct strategy for this. It does seem like they will all be surrendering. Giuliani, for instance, said that he's planning sometime next week to go down. My question is, what would happen if they don't? And then, you know, if Trump stays in Florida, for instance, for one, that puts tremendous pressure on Ron DeSantis. I don't know if Trump wants to do that because DeSantis is already falling in the polls. However, it does create pressure. It would force DeSantis to defend Trump, which can either put DeSantis in a difficult position where now he's 100% on board with MAGA and against the machine.
Starting point is 00:38:49 The opportunity there is, is DeSantis really anti-deep state or whatever? Well, here's your opportunity. If Trump then refuses and says, serve me the paperwork and my lawyers will negotiate, then he has time without going to jail. No mugshot, no jail time. And then he gets the Supreme Court to issue ruling on it and, and crush it instantly before they can pull off whatever weird scheme they want to pull off. I don't know. I have no idea what happens.
Starting point is 00:39:15 Here's what I'd prefer. I guess if, uh, I suppose the simple surface level, uh, response I could give is I think Trump would be better off not surrendering and simply saying I have not received any legal documentation notification in my home state of any charges against me from anyone else. The simple act of a press conference is not a legal declaration that gives them the authority to take any actions. When my local law enforcement make contact with my attorneys as per any pending charges or extradition to another state i will absolutely respond with legal documents that's what he should do and he should do it from florida not from new jersey although the desantis supporters want ron desantis to throw him under the bus so i don't know what you get with that i think too we have to remember like questioning an election's legitimacy is something that has happened throughout this country for, you know, centuries almost. I mean, Jackson questioned his
Starting point is 00:40:10 24 election and would reportedly walk around talking about how it was stolen. You had Bush, you had Stacey Abrams. Countless individuals do this sort of thing when there's evidence of widespread fraud or they think there is evidence of widespread fraud. In Trump's case, there actually was massive fraud, whether that was, you know, the censorship of the Hunter Biden story and how media kind of co-opted voters access to various sources of information on the Biden family or whether that was, you know, a pipe bursting in an Atlanta ballot count center. I like cheating better than fraud. Yeah, because fraud, some people, you say that people might think cheating, but some people might think legal fraudulent actions like fake ballots and stuff.
Starting point is 00:40:53 Cheating is better. The shadow campaign to steal the election that Time magazine published. That's cheating. Withholding the Hunter Biden laptop. Cheating. Changing the rules at the executive level without approval from the state legislature. Cheating. cheating changing the rules the executive level without approval from the state legislature cheating what they're doing right now by arresting donald trump his lawyers and the former presidential administration's personnel cheating i like cheating better i like the word manipulating
Starting point is 00:41:15 but i think we're all right i mean i think i don't know if it's technical fraud either but i think it's both cheating manipulative and cheating i mean you could say it's cheating get a man on the street go to times square the thing, it didn't break the rules. Yes, it did. They just changed the rules. It did break the rules. Oh, then it is cheating. So the Constitution says that the state legislature has final authority on how the elections are run and how electors are assigned.
Starting point is 00:41:36 And when you got governors changing the rules without the approval of the state legislature and courts bypassing the state legislature, that was in violation of the Constitution. Thus, Texas filed a lawsuit under original jurisdiction to the Supreme Court saying the way that these states handled their elections violates the Constitution and thus, it, it, uh, it's, it's, uh, what did they say? Basically, it's stripping Texas of their right to a free and fair election if other states are violating the Constitution. The Supreme Court just said, screw you, we don't want to to hear it so instead of actually hearing the arguments on the merits supreme court just said leave us out of it why because they're evil and corrupt people and coward thomas and alito i think were the ones who were like we must hear this argument yeah they were afraid to because they were afraid to hear the argument and then find
Starting point is 00:42:26 in favor of donald trump because it had there was merit to it and it was like it wasn't even in favor of trump it was texas saying if we do our elections by the constitution and pennsylvania and wisconsin and georgia and michigan or whatever don't then there was no legitimate election it's like basically saying you and 10 of your like you and 10 of your buddies are going to decide who how much money you pitch in by lunch and then one of your friends just gives a bunch of counterfeit bills and you're like no no no why am i spending 20 we all agreed everyone puts in 20 bucks it's 20 bucks wasn't real or at least i don't know if it was real and they say nah shut up you don't you don't get to there were articles written about like the discussions they had about whether or not they would take this.
Starting point is 00:43:07 And they were concerned about the reaction the population would have if they found in a way that would help Donald Trump. They were really, really concerned about it. The Supreme Court Justice. Jenna Ellis. Yeah, I don't have it. Is being criminally indicted under RICO charges for the simple act of being Trump's lawyer. Mark Meadows was Trump's chief of staff. Former presidential administration chief of staff was indicted for that reason.
Starting point is 00:43:34 These people in the Supreme Court were probably pissing in their pants, sitting in the corner, crying, begging for forgiveness, saying, I'll do whatever you say. Clarence Thomas was like, nah. And I think I think it was alito and thomas who were like screw that we don't care yeah the way i see it we cannot rely on the courts congress has kind of rendered itself useless the executive i think is truly the only way we can save this country is by using that authority to you know defund different agencies and do things like that and just totally go after this woke and weaponized deep state this bureaucracy so i think you know this is really the most important election because it's kind of our last chance but if it's if it's about funding then the republicans are in a position now where they should be able to do it
Starting point is 00:44:20 because they had they they have but they don't have the senate like you have the office of management and budget if you're president you can totally cut agents budget or agency oh i mean look fair enough the republicans are going to vote on this government funding bill and they're absolutely going to fund all of these intelligence agencies and law enforcement agencies that are being weaponized against trump and Trump supporters, the Republicans have the power right now to simply be like, we will not vote on any funding for the government that includes funding for the FBI. Yeah. No, they're not going to absolutely do that. They won't.
Starting point is 00:44:54 No, of course not. Because Kevin McCarthy is bought and paid for. They're all bought and paid for. The corruptest corrupt can be their evil people. Are they as fatigued as I am about it? That's what happens though, man. They want you to be. Yeah, they want to wear you down
Starting point is 00:45:06 and then just make you be like, I don't care anymore. Just do whatever. Don't you want to just play Magic the Gathering, Ian? Yeah, man, I just want to game. Hey, Baldur's Gate just came out. Build some muscle, eat healthy, make some funny movies, laugh, cry.
Starting point is 00:45:16 That's right. Look at my kid's eyes. That's all I want to do. Never mind that we're putting mercury in your drinking water. Never mind that we're putting fluoride in your drinking water. Never mind that that chemical spill over there just killed a whole bunch of people that island
Starting point is 00:45:26 just burned down let's talk don't forget it forget all about that don't worry about what we're doing why don't you just go drink some more milkshakes that are full of microplastics or eat some cardboard with some milk pour all over it and some sugar crystals that's what they want you to do i want to do it but here's the question my friends here's the question we've all seen the matrix would you rather sit there in that fancy restaurant with cypher cutting that fine filet mignon saying i don't care if it's real or would you rather be in the abacones right eating slime oh yeah that's not good though i would try it i'd rather be neo that shit was oh sure it's like ben metal i in the matrix everybody wants to be the one yeah I would try it. I'd rather be Neo. Oh, sure. Ben Metal. Everybody wants to be the one.
Starting point is 00:46:09 That's the point. Everybody wants to be the hero. This is the point. You can choose to plug back in, shut it all down, and say, do whatever you want with absolute power. Oppress, maim, hurt, whatever.
Starting point is 00:46:22 I don't care. I just want to drink my Bud Light and eat chicken wings. Or we can eat the slime and do what's right. Or you can do what's right. Fight for civil rights and freedom and honor and integrity
Starting point is 00:46:34 and the Constitution and the preservation of the future. And you got to eat slime while you do it. I'll do slime over bugs. What's the slime in this metaphor? Is it just that you got to keep talking about stuff you don't want to talk about? No, no, in the Matrix,
Starting point is 00:46:44 they were eating amino mixtures. but for us like the suffering involved with with with pushing ahead with this is just keep talking about it don't let up you know because i don't want to talk about donald trump every day i got other stuff to do i want to do other things in my life but i will keep talking about it that's what we need to do to save world war three is on the horizon it always is what sort of there's there's escalating degrees of conflict since the Cold War. Yeah, Korea. The Korean War was the closest the doomsday clock has ever been to zero. Now we have active warfare in Eastern Europe for the first time in, I think, what, five or six decades.
Starting point is 00:47:17 You've got Russia saying that they're at war with us. And this wasn't happening when Donald Trump was president. So there's a lot of a lot of people who view this as Joe Biden is beholden to Ukraine because of favors he did. And he is terrified of what happens if this information gets out. So he's dumping money into Ukraine so that they can win their territorial dispute with their neighbor, Russia, for which we have very little involvement, but for some reason are giving them hundreds of billions of dollars which could lead to world war three you vote for a donald trump and then maybe we get some border security that's imperfect you get a guy who's mean in the white house but the economy does a little bit better jobs are coming back to the u.s the war machine starts breaking down
Starting point is 00:47:59 you know it seems like that's the better path to take. Do you think that this is like, I don't like bringing up God, God's way of saying it's just so generic. But like, is this God's way of saying Vivek Ramaswamy should be the president? Like, I don't think your path of least resistance. Personally, I don't know that God talks like that. If Trump is indicted, I'm sorry, Trump is indicted. If Trump is convicted and imprisoned and stripped from the ballot and then just one day is gone and no one knows where he went, they will then come out and say Vivek Ramaswamy once, you know, sacrificed a goat and punched a kid in the face.
Starting point is 00:48:37 They'll just, you'll get all the craziest stories. They'll make up whatever they have to make up. They'll pull quotes out of context. They'll argue that people have no right to change opinions. They'll say his opinion from two years ago when the narrative was different is his principal opinion now. And already some people are trying to do that. He's climbing in the polls. So what do we hear? We are like, did you know that two years ago Vivek Ramaswamy was in favor of this COVID policy? And I'm like, so was Trump. Like, and then people change their opinions when they saw the data. People change their opinions all the time. And RFK rfk as well people like yeah but rfk said this thing about gun control back then and i'm like and what's he saying now so you can you can believe that they're lying
Starting point is 00:49:13 that's fair okay but everybody said one thing yesterday and something else today i mean because people learn stuff and they change but anyway my pointSantis, let's say Trump gets indicted, convicted, or again, he was indicted. Let's say he gets convicted and he's removed from the ballot. Ron DeSantis jumps to the number one position. He narrowly defeats Vivek Ramaswamy. They're going to come out and say he's a predator. They're going to come out and say he raped somebody. They're going to look what they did to Brett Kavanaugh. Some random, this guy was already vetted. Brett Kavanaugh was already vetted as a federal judge. He had gone through the process already. Then all of a sudden, out of the blue, they accused him of being a gang rapist.
Starting point is 00:49:50 Yeah, and Tara Reid was accusing Joe Biden of sexual impropriety, but she didn't get a lot of media attention. I wonder why. They said Brett Kavanaugh was party to events where men would line up outside of bedrooms where women were held captive and gang raped and men took turns. That's what they claimed about Brett Kavanaugh. DeSantis ain't going to be immune to that. The only thing stopping it right now is that he's typically in second place in some polls in third. Anybody who jumps to first place is getting that exact same treatment.
Starting point is 00:50:21 I think the fact that Casey has cancer might help stave off those kind of attacks for a little bit. No, I don't think so. That's Ron's wife. You don't think so? No, we're up against the most demonic,
Starting point is 00:50:30 depraved people we've ever seen. They'll say Ron beats his wife. They'll say that if Ron jumps into first place for whatever reason, a story will come out where someone says
Starting point is 00:50:39 that when his wife had cancer, they saw Ron strike her in the face with an open palm or whatever. It'll be nonsense. It'll be a former babysitter, and she's like,
Starting point is 00:50:49 he once came home drunk and screamed in her face while she was sick, and then he smacked her. And then he's going to, but this is not true. And Kate's going to be like, this is insane.
Starting point is 00:50:57 This never happened. And they're going to say, you have battered wife syndrome. There are really good Ron DeSantis deep fakes. It really sounds like him. Did you see the Steve Carell one, obviously from The Office? Hilarious.
Starting point is 00:51:06 There's another one a couple days ago I just saw. It's not coming to mind what it was. What it was, but it was like, please clap. One of those. See that ad? Oh, yes. Ron doing something, something. But they got his voice on lock. It really sounds like Ron DeSantis. So if they want to make it sound like he's doing something over a phone
Starting point is 00:51:21 call or something, I mean, the technology's available. Let's jump to this story. It over for ron trump cheers new poll showing vivek ramaswamy overtaking desantis for the number two spot in the 2024 gop primary still miles behind him but many people are suggesting that the trump campaign is propping up these polls propping up vivek ramaswamy because Vivek is no real threat to Trump and actually is nice to Trump, supports Trump in many ways, and may actually be, you know, just effectively on Trump's side, whereas DeSantis is real competition for him. This is, I think this might be the second or third poll showing that Vivek has taken second place. So if Trump is out of the picture, Vivek
Starting point is 00:52:03 may come in first. I don't know for sure. In the prediction markets, we have Ron still in second place, but it looks like Vivek and Ron are tied. And the only reason Ron DeSantis is above him is because D comes before R alphabetically. As the people have argued, I don't know if that's true. I think we can jump down here and just see that. So right now they're saying that it's actually 17 to 16. So DeSantis is in second place. But I'm curious what you guys think about about this battle and where Vivek Ramaswamy ends up. Because I think I watched this really great clip I mentioned earlier between him and Neil Cavuto. Man, this dude is as sharp as sharp can be.
Starting point is 00:52:41 He's sharp as sharp as a box of knives. This Vivek Ramaswamy. He knows what to say, how to say it. And I don't think a guy like Vivek is purely genuine. It would be absurd to believe that this guy is a saint
Starting point is 00:52:54 who just believes the right things and whispers all the sweet nothings into your ears. He's a snake. I said it before. I love snakes. I love snakes. I don't think he's a snake.
Starting point is 00:53:03 Snakes are dangerous. They hide in the grass and if you don't see him there you're gonna pay he's the kind of guy that will go in there and change things for the better unexpectedly i trust him i i don't know him that well but i i don't i'm agreeing with what you're saying i don't think he's saying everything all true like george washington was a spy he was a master liar yeah That's my metaphor. That's the other extreme. Yeah, he's the dude. No step on snake, bro.
Starting point is 00:53:28 Like, do not mess with this. This is what I'm talking about. He's that kind of guy. I think Vivek has overwhelmingly positive positions that he's correct on. And there's a few things that he saw he was pulling bad on and probably switched the narrative. Yeah. That's normal politics for anybody. I think overwhelmingly, based on my conversations
Starting point is 00:53:46 with him, he's legit genuine. He really does dislike the ESG stuff. He really thinks it's a threat to this country, and he wants to win to push back on it. But here's what ends up happening. You're someone like Vivek. What's your specialty? He did biotech. He did anti-ESG
Starting point is 00:54:02 financing. Those are his areas of expertise. When it comes to issues of like government lockdowns and war and foreign policy, not his areas of expertise. So he gets into this and then he's like, I got to figure out what's the appropriate path to take when it comes to foreign policy. That's not my thing. And then he comes out with an opinion that is incorrect and he gets heavily criticized for it.
Starting point is 00:54:23 Then six, seven months later, we hear him again and he comes out with the correct opinion that doesn't mean he's a snake it means that he was like i don't know enough about it i end up learning about it and here's where i actually stand i think when i say snake in the sense that he's gonna go in there and twist the pharmaceutical industry on its head and no one has any idea it's coming yeah like he he's not to even intimate his intention. I think snake is kind of implying he's evil. Oh, well, I disagree. I love snakes. I used to play with snakes when I was little. A snake pooped on me once. A garter snake. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:54:53 That's great. Kind of like a bird poop. Just right out the skin. You know, there's a difference between snake poop and bird poop, right? Bird poop is lucky because they're flying around. Snake poop is just kind of on you. It was just on me. I'm a big fan of snakes. Snakes have no hate, man. They really only will lucky because they're flying around. Snake poop is just kind of on you. Yeah, it was just on me. I'm a big fan of snakes. Snakes have no hate, man.
Starting point is 00:55:07 They really only will attack if they're frightened or attacked. You know, they don't really. If Trump is the lion and they call, you know, the MAGA party, the MAGA symbol is the lion. What's Ron and what's Vivek? Ron's the rhino. That was a low blow. Vivek the snake. Vivek the snake Rama.
Starting point is 00:55:25 Oh, that's mean. No, it's a dangerously powerful creature, the snake. Ron the rhino and Vivek the snake. Yeah, geez. Trump supporter MAGA 2024 Ian over here. No, well, I think I've called Vivek. I said that I likened him to a snake probably like three months ago because what I see in him is that he's not playing his hand. You don't know what he's got.
Starting point is 00:55:44 And he's not a billionaire hand. You don't know what he's got. And he's a, not a billionaire, have a brilliant strategist. The guy is a, is a hundred, was hundreds of millions of dollars. Donald Trump is going to come out in the primaries and be like, Rhino run and the fake,
Starting point is 00:55:57 the snake, Donald Trump. It's Donald Trump all the way. That's if you, they want to hit Donald. It's Donald Trump. If you imagine if Trump starts using Ian's name? Jake the Snake Robert.
Starting point is 00:56:10 You know, Jake the Snake Robert. Rhino Ron. Rhino Ron is better than Ron DeSanthimonious. Yeah, Rhino Ron. Wow. Use my powers for good. And Rama Swampy. I forgot who said that.
Starting point is 00:56:21 Was that Alex Brusewitz who said that? I don't think so. No, I didn't remember Rama Swampy. The Trump people tend to like...'s here's what i think the trump supporters like ramaswamy for one simple reason he defends trump on principle and correctly well he defends principle yeah he defends principle and and donald trump's part of that principle it's not like it could be anybody plug anybody into it he'd still defend the process but when and so i know all the desantis people are going to be like desantis said that these things were wrong too when donald trump was being indicted over what he got indicted over the stormy daniels thing right is that that was the first one the first one ron said look i don't know what
Starting point is 00:56:53 goes into paying a porn star hundreds of thousand dollars people were like low blow like it it didn't it's not the same like the vex approaches what they're doing to Trump is wrong. It is unjust and we must oppose it. Ron's position was more tepid. Even the Fulton County indictment, he just, you know, gave a blanket. I'll end the weaponization of government statement. He always says I haven't read the indictment, which is odd to me and never mentions Trump by name. So, yeah, I think Trump supporters appreciate Ramaswamy going to the mat for him and being true to principles. And I think if DeSantis did that, he would have a lot more goodwill with Trump supporters. Yeah, this is the funny thing. I love the DeSantis supporters are the most entertaining people. I tweeted, what happens if Donald Trump doesn't surrender? What happened? You know, will the feds be sent to whatever state he's in? What if he flees to a red state and they refuse to cooperate? I get a combination of Georgia is a red state. I'm like, yes, it's the one state he has to go to to surrender.
Starting point is 00:57:50 So obviously I'm not talking about him seeking refuge in Georgia, where he'll clearly be arrested by Georgia police. And then I followed up with Ron DeSantis said that that Trump should have fired these source prosecutors and Christopher Wray and all that, and previously stated that he would not assist in extradition. So I tweeted, if he went to Florida, would Ron DeSantis stand by his word and refuse to extradite Trump? And all of a sudden, all of the DeSantis supporters, not every single one, but a bunch of them start insulting and attacking me, claiming that my post was insulting to Ron DeSantis. And I'm just like, yo, this is why the guy's losing.
Starting point is 00:58:32 His base, for whatever reason, Ron DeSantis has cultivated people who assume any discussion of Ron DeSantis is an insult. Yeah. They attack anybody who brings up anything about him. I can only assume that the Trump campaign hired shills to go on Twitter and attack anyone while pretending to be DeSantis supporters so that nobody wants to support DeSantis. So I noticed a lot of the TDSers are the ones who support DeSantis a lot. And the TDSers are people that are extremely, extremely mad about Trump. So I feel like it became a thing because so many of them were on his side. They just kind of had this visceral reaction against Trump. That's why they're voting DeSantis.
Starting point is 00:59:01 There were a lot of Republicans and conservatives in 2016 who despised trump and did everything in their power to stop him right then after a year or two they were totally on board with trump why because of social pressure trump won yeah if they were not with trump then they were this weird they were democrats and so what ends up happening is these neocons they split into two factions we now agree trump is good please don't yell at me. And Trump was always bad. We're going to go hang out with Democrats. Then you get the Lincoln Project. I love the Lincoln Project so much because they were like, now that Trump has been defeated in 2020, they're like, we're going to start going after other Republicans. And it's
Starting point is 00:59:36 just like, why? Like Trump was the bad guy, right? Why go after literally any other Republican? Don't you like Mitch McConnell? He's your guy, huh? No, because it was grifting. They just wanted to find a group of people to grift off of and make money for or make money from. Sorry. Yeah. What I love about Trump is like he's the great revealer in many ways. He's shown us who these people truly are to their core, whether that's, you know, deep
Starting point is 00:59:58 state bureaucrats or your average never Trump or never Trumper on Twitter. He has shown us what these people are thinking so they can no longer lie to us he's kind of pulled the curtain back and I think that's been an immense service to their republic yeah and that's why he has so many fans a huge part of why he has so many fans because he just he talks straight and like you talk about we're in the apocalypse we're in this great revealment time era where and he's just like talking about the deep state openly and like for people that had been red-pilled they already kind of knew but to hear it from the president while he's president is like man people needed that or just even the dc consultant class like before trump i had no
Starting point is 01:00:33 idea how much disdain like coastal elites or dc beltway consultants have for average americans that just live regular day-to-day lives i didn't know how much they despise my values until Donald Trump showed me. Hatred. Hatred. Can I also just point out, with all due respect to Kyle Kalinske, he did not know what a farm looked like. He took a picture from a plane. Kyle Kalinske is a very prominent left-wing podcaster personality. He's a good dude. He tries really hard, and I have tremendous respect for him because he tries to be honest. He just has different opinions. That's great. Him and crystal ball. They're fantastic. But the point is, even among the people that we can say we like and are good people, he posted a photo from a plane of farms and said, I wonder why it looks that way. And it's just like, he got roasted for it and insulted. And it was mean. And I'm like,
Starting point is 01:01:21 yo, this is an educational opportunity for a coastal elite like Kyle to understand the world that rural folk live in by simply saying, my friend, good sir, those are farms. But was he asking like why? Where does he think his food comes from? He did not understand what he was looking at. But was he asking why do the farms look that way? No, no, no, no, no, no, no. He said, what are those things things that was the substance of his question he said i don't know why the land looks like yeah that's right that's right i think we have
Starting point is 01:01:51 the tweet right here actually it's this he said oh okay all right you can hit the x above it that'll do let's just do this and find an actual image here we go he said this land by the uh this is land by colorado kansas border from a plane pretty cool i have no idea how slash why it looks like this dude it's called farming it's called property line how do you not know that man and then that's that's that i'm sorry that's it is absolutely wild i don't know how you don't know yeah for someone to be popular and to be ignorant is pretty disturbing, but it happens. It's so beyond that. It's like you don't know.
Starting point is 01:02:30 How did you not know? What farms? My mind is blown by this. Yeah, me too. You can look at a neighborhood and see property lines. Those are yards. Even when you're a kid, old McDonald had a farm. It's so weird to me.
Starting point is 01:02:44 What the heck? Sean Davis said, imagine being mystified by the existence of farms i am not bringing this up to like we we've brought it up periodically it's from a long time ago what what years i don't know if we know what year it's from years a couple years ago a couple years ago and again like i like how he's a good dude he's he's a smart guy but my point is not that he's a bad person it's that even when we're taught you talk about the the beltway people who despise rural folk think about people like kyle who do who does a show where he's very uh favorable to democrats and the left and he literally doesn't know what a farm even looks like these are the kind of people and again not trying to drag kyle but these are the people that when i've been on twitter and was talking about inflation i and and
Starting point is 01:03:26 uh disruption of supply line when i said what happens when this farm can't produce milk where you get your milk from they responded with the store i am not exaggerating and i said i get that my point is where does the store get their milk from and they responded with what are you talking about it's just there i am not exaggerating that is a verbatim quote from people on from a guy on twitter i got into an argument with socialists with sickle and hammers in their accounts and they say things like it's just at the store dude what do you mean oh they're trolling that's no no dude they still got you talking about no you know you see you see the issue i don't take people like that seriously. I've spent a decade plus on the ground at various protests where I've physically spoken with these people and have experienced this over and over again.
Starting point is 01:04:11 And you call it a troll, yet Kyle Kulinski did not know what a farm looked like. Yeah, but a random internet commenter. That's why I would say it's a troll. I would just assume it's a troll first a high profile socialist account with like 40 000 followers who post about this all the time that says something like that is no different from kyle kalinsky saying he doesn't know the farm okay 40 000 followers that's a different story i'm not talking like a guy with 10 followers okay there's like a they're like prominent you know i got into an argument with the socialist party of great britain that one was hilarious when i was just like it was a similar
Starting point is 01:04:42 conversation what happens if somebody wants to build a car as a hobby they were like they can go and just get free car parts from the factory and i'm like like every communist system for free you can just literally for no reason go somewhere just take whatever you want did if the people knew you it's not technically untrue because they use brute force to do it like if someone knew you and they wanted to agitate you they could message you on twitter and be like just say really inane stuff until you can't take it anymore and then i don't tv yell about it i don't think kyle's goal with not knowing what a farm was was intending to trick right wingers into thinking he was a moron no i think he genuinely didn't know from that it's like that meme ha jokes on them i'm just pretending to
Starting point is 01:05:18 be retarded like no dude there are a lot of people that don't understand what supply chain is and so and the supply line there are people that don't understand where milk comes from but dude they coming from the store like it just apparates at the store is the most bizarre concept it's not it's bro it's called there's a concept of object permanence but there's people who let's try this you ever see that visualization test where it says, it shows a picture, it shows five silhouettes of a person, and there's a picture of an apple, a drawing of an apple, a flat single monotone drawing of an apple, an outline of an apple, and then nothing. And it says, which do you see in your mind when you think of apple? There are some people who say,
Starting point is 01:06:02 what do you mean do you see? you can see things in your mind? Some people can't visualize objects in their minds. Some people can in their mind visualize a three dimensional Apple, spin it around, slice it in half, open it up. And that's the visualization abilities they use for conceptualizing bridges and buildings and structures. Some people can't do that. Some people can't do basic math.
Starting point is 01:06:24 Some people can't make can. Some people can't do basic math. Some people can't make, can't think three moves ahead. Not everybody has these abilities, but everybody can vote. So when someone says the milk is just at the store, it's because their logical capabilities stops one degree from where they are. I go to the store and get milk. What do you mean milk comes from somewhere else? It's at the store where we think, and if this is where you can't project your, your, your cognitive faculties onto other people, I can visualize the whole supply chain from,
Starting point is 01:06:55 from the birth of the cow. I've gone to the farms and I've, I've, I've talked to the farmers and even I'm not an expert on this, but I certainly understand the milk at the store came from somewhere, from a truck, from a distribution facility, from bottling plant, from a farm, whatever. And there are people who can't comprehend that.
Starting point is 01:07:16 Now, in the case of Kyle, with all due respect, he just had never seen a farm before. My point is not that he's a stupid person. My point is that he is pushing policy positions and encouraging votes from a place of extreme ignorance. I am not going to pretend to be the smartest person in the room or the world. I also do very similar things. But I think, you know, my point with this is when it comes to passing nationwide laws, I think it would be imperative for people like Kyle to step back and say, I don't know a lot more often. Yeah. And being intelligent and being, you can be intelligent and be ignorant ignorant just means
Starting point is 01:07:48 you don't know the information yet or you don't know the information so kyle's very intelligent whether or not he's ignorant about something you know a lot of people have things they don't know that's one of the great wonders of being a human you get to learn and that's why i thought it was stupid that everyone was insulting him i'm like dude kyle's a nice guy he's like he tries really hard he's fair to people and uh back in the day one of the you know one of the reasons i give him a lot of credit is that he he has consistently defended carl benjamin from all the lies and the smears of the media when they were falsely characterizing him as racist he would reject and be like dude we don't know don't do that that's not fair address the arguments and i'm like this is a good dude
Starting point is 01:08:22 but he doesn't know what a farm looks like. That means when he goes on his channel and says, Hey guys, you should vote for this policy and that policy. You, you know, that he's missing a huge portion of knowledge in certain areas. I'm not saying he's talking about voting policy on farms or anything. I'm just saying, you know, when people talk about stuff on Twitter, most people don't know anything. Yeah. Yeah. And I mean, even in government, like how many people in the U.S. Department of Agriculture building in D.C. right now have no experience firsthand on a farm? Probably a large number. Yeah, true.
Starting point is 01:08:52 Do you work in the government? I don't know. Do you spend a lot of time with people that work in the government? Yes. Right by Capitol Hill is where our office is. So we work with them a lot. Do you get the vibe? Are they a lot of ignorant people, like people that just don't know?
Starting point is 01:09:03 Not stupid. I mean, they might be very intelligent, but they just are missing a lot of information. They're stupid. Do you see stupid people too? A big question. Oh, they're certainly stupid people. Absolutely. But I think too, it's hard to be kind of a jack of all trades. You're dealing with a lot of different subject matter, whether it's farming, ESG, you can't be an expert on everything. So that's where you have to rely on intelligent and capable people to kind of inform you on different policy for those issue areas. I have to read this comment from Chaz Warren. He says, Tim, if you have pushed a prolapsed uterus back into a cow, you can say you know what the supply chain is like.
Starting point is 01:09:36 Oh, wow. No, I went to a bunch of farms in California and talked with a group of farmers. I actually got a tour of a farm. It was really cool. I got to go to their boardroom, and he explained to me that even though they were a family farm, of course, they have trustees and board members. The family grew. It got bigger.
Starting point is 01:09:55 They've got distant cousins and stuff. It was really cool. Got to walk around. The farmer explained to me that kale became a cash crop for them because in the 90s, it was a decoration, and then the hipsters loved it, and now we make tons of money selling i thought that was really funny and then my favorite experience on the farm was um when when i realized cows weren't locked up and i was like the cows are just out in the field like they're just eating right here he's like yep and i'm like what if they leave and the farmer's like where would they go it's like i don't know
Starting point is 01:10:24 i don't they just leave and he's like why would they go it's like i don't know i don't they just leave and he's like why would they leave there's food here and i just didn't even think of that because i'm used to like you open the door the dog runs away you know what i mean but cows like they're not gonna leave same thing with chickens man like you you learn this stuff you open the door let the chickens out chickens aren't going anywhere they'll wander around they'll be dumb but they come home you know we don't we don't want the chickens going out because they get eaten but cows that's where the phrase come home to roost came exactly yeah exactly and until the cows come home i once was i was i was driving and i saw this big trail of cows and uh i asked farmer one of the one of the dairy farmers about and he was like
Starting point is 01:10:58 yeah the cows will go off and find land they'll graze they'll they'll hang out then they'll come back home when you know later when they're done i'm like wow but yes i've never i've never pushed a prolapsed uterus back into a cow not yet but imagine never 2024 is gonna be wild though well you do want to get a cow for a free domicile yes we might have to get more than one though because they want friends oh yeah just let them well like goat yeah with goats cow and a goat the thing is you I think... What was it? Cows produce like 12 gallons of milk a day or something?
Starting point is 01:11:27 Is it that much? Jesus. Yeah. That's a lot. 12 gallons. Like, wait, wait. Are you serious? One cow?
Starting point is 01:11:34 That's too much? Can't drink all that milk. I'm going to look it up. Yeah, it's something like that. You're going to need a lot of Hershey syrup. See, this is like a dairy cow, which is a regular cow, too. Especially if they're in estrus, all that stuff. Yeah, anyway. Yeah, that's true. That's true. 20 to 25 liters a syrup. Yeah. It's like a dairy cow, which is a regular cow too, especially if they're in estrous all that stuff.
Starting point is 01:11:46 Yeah. Anyway. Yeah, that's true. That's true. 20 to 25 liters a day. Yeah. It's like six to seven gallons. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:11:51 Six to seven is average. Wow. Oh, due to genetic manipulation and artificial high protein diets, they can produce six to seven gallons. Nah, we'll just have the cow go around eating grass. We got too much of it. So we have, it's really cool. Oh, one gallon.
Starting point is 01:12:04 Natural is just one gallon natural is just one gallon a day oh okay all right well that's a lot probably fine so uh for people who don't live out in the middle of nowhere um i'll explain this is a cool thing to you and for people who do live in the middle of nowhere you already know this we have 50 acres so we have a deal with a local farmer he comes and mows all of the wild grass or whatever bales it up and keeps it and each bale of i guess i guess you'd call it a bale of hay or whatever it's not a bale of hay it's just whatever is growing there it's worth like i think 200 to 300 dollars so for this guy he's getting like 20 of these things and all he has to do is come and take it and it's his it's
Starting point is 01:12:41 a good deal for us we get the the land taken care of and for the farmer he gets food for his animals it's awesome and that that's how it's been for most of the rural spots that i've had i'm assuming that's how it works but let's get back to the cities and talk about some cultural news we got this story from cnn you love cnn don't you pride month backlash hurt target sales they fell for the first time in six years you know i just want to say this real quick this is partly why they're so heavily coming after Trump. Their cultural endeavors are failing. Target's quarterly sales fell for the first time in six years.
Starting point is 01:13:13 And it's as consumers pulled back on discretionary goods and fierce right wing backlash to their Pride Month collection. Target's stock dropped 27% over the past year. This is amazing stuff. Cult stuff culturally the right is winning it doesn't necessarily i guess at this point post-liberals you know former liberals are now considered right wing with uh a song like rich men north of richmond what how many i'm gonna look this up how many 17 million i saw seven seven where did you see 17 on youtube on youtube yeah right and then you've got all the different twitter videos with 10 million here you type in rich
Starting point is 01:13:51 and the song pops up right away richmond north of richmond 16 million views in a week wow 16 million views in a week 16.6 million views amazing awesome dude singing a song about corrupt government failed policies and he's just got a guitar and he's just singing and it's nailing it sound of freedom just passed indiana jones on a small budget they just did a press release angel studios at a press release saying all of their investors just got a 120 return wow oh that is awesome. Massive. Makes sense considering it was a $15 million budget that pulled in $170-some-odd million. So I think that's what the press release said.
Starting point is 01:14:31 Let me quadruple check here. I'm not sure if it was 20% on top. Like they put in 100 and it got back 120. I don't think that it's the right wing that's winning okay so i'm sorry it's their original investment plus 20 so they got a 20 return that's still absolutely fantastic yeah and i go you go to someone and say i can get you a 20 return in you know in two years people that's really good especially for producing a good movie on top of it like a good product so you can feel good about the money that you made so so while those good things are happening bud light lost 400 million
Starting point is 01:15:09 dollars and what i think it is is is the anti-authoritarian movement that's winning this libertarian movement it's not necessarily the libertarian party but it's this libertarian concept people are tired of authoritarian crap like finding out about the government like all this crisper i'm not CRISPR, but like, oh, the, the prism program, the Edward Snowden blew up, blew open.
Starting point is 01:15:29 And like, just finding about all this like totalitarian crap behind the scenes with the CIA and the NSA and all this junk since nine 11, people are tired of that. And they're pushing back against the corporate government collusion, this fascist crap. I think COVID did it. And they call it right wing,
Starting point is 01:15:42 but that's a misnomer, man. It is people that just do not want a top-down authority commanding our lifestyle. And COVID had a huge part to play in that. It woke people up. They were forced to look at things. I think the COVID lockdowns did it for a lot of people. They went nuts.
Starting point is 01:15:58 And there was a viral video going around now from a dude who participated in the BLM riots saying that it was one of the stupidest and cringest things he's ever done because now he's been realizing what's going on. The smartest thing I think I've heard someone say is to say, what can we do? How do we win? We always say on the show, like engage in culture, build culture, share culture. And then someone said something brilliant on Twitter. I think Mike Cernovich retweeted it. It was sell them on Twitter and X.
Starting point is 01:16:24 Convince them to sign up for it. That's the easiest thing to do because you don't need to say Trump is good. You don't need to say RFK is good. You don't need to say Vivek is good. You don't need to say DeSantis is good. You need only say, hey, you should sign up on Twitter
Starting point is 01:16:36 and we can chat and share memes. And then they're like, oh, okay. Then they'll start seeing the retweets. They'll see the news clips. They'll see Joe Biden say, if you don't fire the prosecutor not get a billion dollars then they'll see cnn say it never happened and they'll go what but i watched that video that's the thing convince all of your friends to sign up for x that's the path x.com i would like to say oh boy it's so fun i got paid i got elon musk gave me 100 bucks because i was
Starting point is 01:17:05 complaining about stuff how fun i was thinking we should have on the show at some point like somebody that's deep in the deep state that wants to talk about it there must be somebody that's like tell us why because you guys are listening right now why do you think it's why is it good why is this i understand like you don't want terrorism you don't want timothy mcveigh to get unlimited amounts of electricity so that he does the most giant exploit like i understand that but like what aspect of like trying to clamp down do you think is better for our society as a whole i just i want to know i want to talk about it i can explain it probably in a rudimentary way that lacks a lot of information and i'll explain it like this lil luke and roberto don't get along
Starting point is 01:17:42 we go in we separate them and we lock up roberto jr he does not know why we don't get along. We go in, we separate them, and we lock up Roberto Jr. He does not know why. We don't care if he knows why. We just want him to do what we want him to do because we want eggs. And that's it. And we want to be able to make more of the chickens later on. The chickens are probably sitting there being like, they're coming here and separating us. One chicken's like, they're stealing our children and eating them. they're like oh here they go with egg gate again omelet gate no
Starting point is 01:18:09 one's stealing your babies and eating them that's an insane conspiracy theory chicken is it my point is these people in the deep state they don't care what you have to say they don't care what i have to say they care only that their machine functions in the way they want to function like a chicken coop they wake up in the morning, there's fresh eggs, they get to eat them. In their mind, it's the machine operates, they get big penthouses, they get to control military power all over the world, and they don't want to deal with China pushing back on them. In some instances, they are working with China. I think the reality is the World Economic Forum, Western powers, NATO, Europe, and the US.S. found out that, very quickly, the Chinese
Starting point is 01:18:45 communist method was preferable. So there is a conflict between the West and China, but these WEF elites and many prominent position people in the U.S. politics would prefer a Chinese communist system in the United States. I was just listening to James Lindsay on Josie Redhead Libertarian's X-Space on last Sunday, and James was explaining, explaining like it's come to the point where these terms neo-fascist communist neo this like don't use the word neo just call it communist but even then it's like when you really ask these guys that are
Starting point is 01:19:13 trying like what do you want your new government to be they're like you know what i don't even care as long as my son is on top they don't so you know it's it's goblin king at this point it's just people who use power to gain power and screw everybody else. That's why you see people running through the streets, smashing cars, breaking into stores, stealing whatever they want, because it's raw power time. Yeah. And they're afraid of any institution that would threaten that, like, you know, the traditional family unit or nationhood and being proud of your country and being,
Starting point is 01:19:43 you know, bonded to your fellow countrymen. They're afraid of those forces. so they've sought to suppress them. That's why when you have someone like Nayibu Kelly or Donald Trump, who is a nationalist figure, they yell fascism at them and try to use every force they can to cancel them and to silence them because they are scared of those forces because they threaten their power because a family collected with other families could be more powerful. A nation can be more powerful than them. And that's scary to them.
Starting point is 01:20:09 What do you think of Nayib Bukele, the president of El Salvador? Oh, I think he's a hero. I think he has saved his country. Absolutely. I mean, he single-handedly wiped out the most satanic gangs in the Western hemisphere in one foul swoop. And now Elador is becoming a wonderful place to live again it's a safe place to live businesses are going there it's incredible what did he do with the cart cartels is that what they were what did he do like when was it all up what i saw like three four weeks ago they that they mobilized like their their military and like surrounded a bunch of stuff was that what you're talking about like in one in one moment
Starting point is 01:20:43 he had them all taken or something? Yeah, they've had a couple mass operations where they've gone and got these gangsters. But yeah, he's locked them up. And you know, you hear folks in the Western media complain about due process and things like that. But when you have a country that is so destitute and with such rampant crime,
Starting point is 01:21:00 you have to be aggressive and you have to use force in order to restore order. And he has had the guts to do that a lot of people don't so maybe so there you think there are people in the united states that have that mentality that they're like we have to use force because they think it's that bad or they're being led to believe it's that bad i think so yeah i mean i don't think we're quite at else where el salvador was when naibu kelly you know took power and cleaned it up but i think we're certainly getting there. And I think when you don't have order, when you have complete chaos, that can lend itself to mob justice and things like that and a strong man. So obviously,
Starting point is 01:21:36 that's not something that we necessarily want in this country. But if the right individual does it as Nayib has done for El Salvador, it can restore order and it can let your countrymen achieve prosperity again. Had it been chaotic in El Salvador? Oh, yeah. Their murder rate was some of the worst in the Western world. And now it's safer than most American cities in El Salvador. Within over the course of like a year? Yes.
Starting point is 01:22:00 Jeez. Yeah, it's incredible. Like I said, I was hanging out at uh i was at mgm a couple months ago playing poker of all things and there was a dude who you know you when you're there you're hanging out you're talking to people he mentioned that uh he was leaving soon and i was like i was like oh you're leaving the states and he's like yeah i'm going to el salvador and i was like oh really he's like i'm from there but my family left but now we're going back and then i was like oh wow why he's like oh it's
Starting point is 01:22:25 got really better really good now it's safe crazy people who had left the country to move to the united states now want to go back also people complain about him being you know a dictator and things like that cnn msnbc all those folks but he's actually totally wiped out corruption in his country he's limited government more than any Republican president in recent memory. He's totally shrunk all of the power that the legislature was abusing. And he's really kind of just wiped out the swamp in many ways. Is he like, he was elected? And then so do they have a term limit? I'm actually not sure. Not sure about El Salvador. I got that kind of vibe in New York. I didn't wasn't there in the 80s. But I got to New York in the early 2000s. And by that point, I guess Giuliani had cleaned it up. It was apparently hell on earth in the 80s. And then Giuliani- That guy's financially ruined now.
Starting point is 01:23:13 Yeah, it's crazy. Well, I just think the powers that be don't want you to know that you can do what Naibu Kelly did or what Rudy Giuliani did. We don't have to accept this decline or this chaos. We can totally reinstitute order. We just have elites currently that are unwilling to do it because they have no interest in that. They love this lawlessness. It lets them kind of do their deep state work while no one's noticing. And it oppresses people too, right? It's dehumanizing almost to live in these American cities that are rampant with crime, that are totally deteriorated. They want to keep your spirit down Yeah, the you mean the leadership does yeah currently class. Yes
Starting point is 01:23:52 Yeah, cuz in your life sucks If your life sucks every day like you get on get down to like the street you go to the shop and then someone's stealing Everything and you're like, oh, well, I've got all this money. I'm gonna spend it on this food This guy just took it all for free. Do you really deep like demoralizes you at a deep level after a little while you know yeah yeah you feel like things are beginning to fall apart yeah and then you're not you're less willing to like work for the system and then make it all work out well it's it's it's it's also simply this things get so chaotic people eventually just say for what reason am i risking my health and safety for this yep i'm gonna just do my own thing and they give up they said i would to just do my own thing. And they give up. They said,
Starting point is 01:24:25 I would rather just plug myself back into the matrix and eat the steak and ignore all the problems. To think that American leadership would let that happen just because like, I want to think that they're overwhelmed and they can't stop it or they feel incapable. Well, not that they want it to happen so that they can strike with their, with their Patriot Act.
Starting point is 01:24:43 But, but like current leadership would want it to happen because if you don't want to go vote then it'd be easier for them to potentially you know get get their person they would like in in power in power if you don't go vote do you think that the u.s has like become like a political autocracy do you feel that way i i i don't know it's a good question here's a question for you you mean i don't know here's a question for you there's a lot of people who are saying that we live in a simulation a lot of these ai guys genuinely believe that we live in a simulation they've tweeted about it where they're like base reality what was it what was the tweet the guy said base reality happened only one time and this is not it or whatever what if he was wondering
Starting point is 01:25:20 what if he even existed ever existed in base reality or or whatever. What if humans destroy the planet with pollution? Not like the Matrix with robots, but let's just say the world becomes crap. It's garbage. There's mass pollution. You struggle to breathe. You're thin and frail. There's no food. It's overpopulated.
Starting point is 01:25:35 So everybody plugs in to the simulation where you live this life instead. Would you choose to leave this fake reality of comfort knowing that real base reality was horrifying and painful? Oh, why? Why would you? Well, are we able to help base reality from this reality? This is the question about politics in general. It's a sci-fi analogy for would you choose to engage in politics?
Starting point is 01:26:03 What is it better to be a fisherman than to engage in the politics of man or whatever that was uh that was uh from the french revolution that was what was his name the number two guy of the french revolution better to be a poor farmer than to engage in the politics of man and he's basically saying just give in he's like i shouldn't have done he's like if i could do it all over again i wouldn't have got involved the reason i disagree with that mentality is let's say that we'll use the sci-fi analogy of being in a pod in a matrix one day all of a sudden you start you start coughing up blood and you're like what's happening i don't know what's going on and then all of a sudden you go
Starting point is 01:26:34 blind in one eye and you're like you start shrieking and screaming and then in base reality there's a guy bludgeoning your pod with a with a mallet screaming and you can't see it and you can't stop it and you can't do anything about it. That's how I view politics. There are a lot of people like, who cares? Just ignore it. It's like, yes, and then one day a mob shows up and burns down your house, and you never saw it coming. You're ill-prepared for it, and now you have to suffer the consequences in the worst ways imaginable. And for those that were prepared and built a little bunker with beans or something, they escaped long before it happened. Or has a strong community.
Starting point is 01:27:05 Or a strong community, but those who prepared for escaped long before it happened or has a strong community that's a strong community but though right those who prepared for the catastrophe before it happened are probably going to be okay like if a zombie apocalypse were to break out and there are a group of people that were warning of it happening and they built big walls around their neighborhood and stocked up on supplies for 30 years when that happens there'll be people screaming let us in and they're going to be like nope but the thing about simulation theory is that you can impact base reality from the simulation. So yeah, you could fight the AI in the simulation and destroy its ability to function in the simulation. That's like a weird thing you made up, dude. I don't think so.
Starting point is 01:27:37 If you're in, like when you play Skyrim, can you, while playing on PlayStation, alter the code and change what the AI does? What happens in Skyrim is affecting me in reality. Like, I get angry if the dragon kills my guy in Skyrim. Yeah, and nothing else. So you can affect politics without paying attention to politics. You playing that video game have no impact on the outside world other than just you playing the video game. But you understand what I mean? Like, you don't need to be engaged in politics to influence politics like you can have no idea what's going on
Starting point is 01:28:08 but make the best song on earth and everyone just has nothing to do with base reality or whatever if base reality i see what you're saying about engaging in culture in ways that are not political yes but but you have to like rich men north of richmond i i I assume that if I sat down with Oliver Anthony, he's going to be able to, he will have a conversation about politics. Clearly, he knows what's going on for him to write a song about what's going on. So he's in the fray. He's not hiding from it. Otherwise, he'd have written some weird love song or he'd write a song about his truck and his dog on his way to work. I hope he has those.
Starting point is 01:28:41 I hope he has them. He probably does. That's country 101, right? Yeah. on his way to work i hope he has those i hope he has them it probably does that's country 101 right yeah so like would you see from in the matrix like morpheus went in and was like hey neo snap out of it and so he went into the matrix to alter base reality from within the matrix so if you could go be like a matrix warrior and just be in this like fantasy land and still somehow impact people that's like the life of an artist maybe where you don't even touch politics but you have to i mean here's the funny thing taylor swift one of the most politically influential personalities in the world she wrote that song about how everyone should be gay or
Starting point is 01:29:16 whatever and you shouldn't be mad about it i'm exaggerating a little bit but uh what is it called you need you need to calm down or something yeah yeah and like in the song it just caricaturizes and insults people on the right who are you know opposed to gay marriage and things like that need you need to calm down or something yeah yeah and like in the song it just caricaturizes and insults people on the right who are you know opposed to gay marriage and things like that so she's influenced a massive generation of young kids to agree with her because they're fanatics and then if they do unplug they've already got that brainwash from with that they learned while they were in the simulation so i'm kind of a simulation warrior personally. I love being in the game.
Starting point is 01:29:48 I like being part of the fun and kind of tweaking people's subconscious without overtly displaying the data. I found that to be very effective for many years. But I also, it's important to snap out of it. It's dark and dirty, but somebody's got to do it. It'll be really funny. One day Ian wakes up and he's in a neural link simulation and they were like the whole purpose of the
Starting point is 01:30:09 simulation was that you didn't believe in god and so we ran this you know 50 year 50 year life existence for you to hear the arguments and wow i didn't believe in god when i was little now i do that's so weird and then you wake up and you're like what happened and they're like you believe in god and you've you've defeated simulation you're like, what happened? And they're like, you believe in God and you've defeated simulation. You believe in God? Yes, I do. What do you think it is? Well, I think that it is the creator of the universe. I believe that Christ is King and Lord.
Starting point is 01:30:37 Like, how did it create? What like, what do you how deep do you go on how it creates the universe? I mean, I think that, you know, no one really knows because no one was there. I do believe in the biblical creation story. And I think, you know, if God decided to utilize some sort of cosmic event, perhaps he did. So he said, let there be light and there was light. So maybe it was some sort of massive cosmic event, a big bang, something like that. Who knows? But yeah, I mean, I don't think that all of this, you look at the intricacies of nature, how ordered and organized everything is.
Starting point is 01:31:15 I don't think it came from nothing. It was accidental. Yeah, I want like, there's no time, the time scale. I don't think there's time in relative to God. So like all these, like you might think some, some meteor coming is just like some random occurrence, but I feel like he, it, he,
Starting point is 01:31:25 whatever sets things in motion that might take hundreds of millions or billions of years to arrive. And then, but it's all part of this, like plan. Like, and, and so maybe that's why I'm thinking about this.
Starting point is 01:31:37 This comic, I love this comic. It's so good. So for those that are just listening, I'll have to explain it. It says silica gel, do not eat. And the guy it it says silica gel do not eat and the guy goes those silica gel industry big shots can't tell me what to do and then he
Starting point is 01:31:49 throws in his mouth the next one is a picture of him with a weird cap on his head and wires and he's shocked and two scientists then say congratulations you've escaped the simulation welcome to the real world do not eat silica gel please if it says don't eat it don't eat it but that's just a it's a really funny comic i don't know why this guy thought of it was just hilarious what would you do tim if you were if you found out you were in a simulation if morpheus came to you and offered you that's a tough question uh i'd ask for information on base reality and i'd ask for information what the simulation is and why it exists and whatever i would make the immediate assumption that the existence of a simulation and us in it
Starting point is 01:32:26 is a bad thing. Depends on if we are base reality beings that are plugged into a simulation or AI generated simulated beings, in which case we can't leave the simulation anyway. But if it was a matrix type scenario and a guy like Morpheus came to me and said, you can take the blue pill or you can take the red pill, I'd be like, well, you got to tell me what's going on out there first. Like, I know what's going on here this is an existence i comprehend and understand you tell me i take this pill and i go somewhere else explain to me what that's what
Starting point is 01:32:52 somewhere else alex jones did on joe rogan's podcast uh interdimensional space aliens man it's the dmt machine elves they're bouncing they're coiling in and out infinitely didn't he say like interdimensional like so it interdimensional, like vampires or something like that? Is that what he said? He did say there were demons. There were evil ones. Yeah, he said some more stuff, but yeah. Have you ever break through on DMT?
Starting point is 01:33:14 I don't think Kingsley has ever done DMT. I haven't really, I've never broken through. I want to, I've like puffed on it in the past. Shattering the veil. Yeah. What was it, breaking the veil? I can imagine, like apparently your arms go out and then they go out forever in every direction you your feet go forever like you just see the fractal repetition forever and every in every
Starting point is 01:33:35 direction and terrifying yeah like it breaks reason but maybe we need to do that or humans benefit can benefit from breaking the logical you know no man three-dimensional maybe maybe we are all pieces of the universe experiencing itself that's it i do believe that we like because of the fact that we are conscious we are the like the universe's consciousness like your knees aren't conscious right your liver is not conscious yeah but so i don't think we're the end-all be-all of consciousness i think we're microscopic and relative to the potential potentials of consciousness uh i mean i'm not quite sure what you're saying uh human consciousness is
Starting point is 01:34:18 extremely small right like yeah you're like look at a dog's consciousness a dog's mental state there is something greater than humans obviously or, or I think mathematically. But I wonder if the next phase of life is going to be AI. you know ego is a planet what happens when humans create nanotechnology and industrialize the point of automation where you have an ai that can create more of itself it doesn't need humans anymore to facilitate it then the planet becomes a big machine that then absorbs other planets and gets bigger and bigger and becomes this massive powerful construct or whatever yeah i was thinking a couple days ago the ai oh what was that paperclip machine yeah that's a great that's a that's a game you can play on the internet um and you just but i was thinking you consume things and then turn them into paper the whole universe is ai needs us i think it needs
Starting point is 01:35:17 us to propagate so it wants us i can't tell for sure it might get to a point where it can subsist without us but i feel like it's synergistic with ai let's hope not let's hope not anytime soon let's let that let that simmer well whatever happens it'll be long uh past the time we die so yeah true all right let's go to super chats if you haven't already would you kindly smash that like button subscribe to this channel share the show with your friends it really does help and of course as election season is heating up people are starting to notice that the uh show isn't appearing anymore on their homepages and they're even having a hard time finding it. So sharing it really, really does up posted on X posted on Facebook or wherever you can
Starting point is 01:35:53 and head over to Timcast dot com. Click join us. That members only show is coming up in about a half an hour. But let's read. I'm not your guy, friend, says I watched Alan Dershowitz's podcast from yesterday and he gave a lesson on what the RICO statute is and how it's being abused in trump's case i need a phil yell yes well there you go that was worth every penny cultural uh culture abduction says good news north carolina passed a ban on gender affirming care for minors uh excuse me what did they what did they ban
Starting point is 01:36:23 let me let me rephrase this for you good news north carolina passed a ban on child sex changes uh and trans and biological males competing in female sports leagues this is truly based let the leftist tears flow love the show and everything y'all do the old choppy choppy had to correct some of that marxist neo linguistics you were using there sir sorry guy buddy friend says here's a couple bucks just to hear ian crow again this is roberto jr by the way i love that guy i honestly don't think that's what he sounded like like it would go down and then he'd like try and keep it up but he's like he didn't have it you know
Starting point is 01:37:05 how many i wonder how many people just turned the tv on all right they paid for one not three coldy locked production says if desantis allows them to take trump from his state any chance of him regaining my respect goes with campaign chances this whole situation will spark a hot conflict the dems are going too far i think they want a hot conflict. The Dems are going too far. I think they want a hot conflict. I think they feel like they're losing. Trump won the first time and they were surprised it happened. They had to go insane. COVID is the only way they were able to win second time.
Starting point is 01:37:34 And now they don't think they're going to win again. They need some kind of conflict. Otherwise, they have no path for it. Democrats know if they instigate the violence, they lose. So they need other people to start it. I know that if we stay the course, we get Scott Pressler to ramp up his efforts with 100 new Scott Pressler's. If we keep winning in the cultural fronts with things like sound of freedom, with Bud Light failing, with Target failing, you know, the the where we're going is inevitable. liberals leftists they're aborting their kids they're sterilizing their kids big uh business disney is losing hundreds of millions nearly a billion dollars bud light lost 400 million dollars target lost 27 stock value they're clearly losing in all of the cultural areas nothing but good news so what do they do they go after trump because they want you to think you've lost already when you're winning.
Starting point is 01:38:26 Don't forget it. Let's go. Big Buddha says, Tim, having to do some searching for your shows, you know, it's election season. Is Trump's indictment the end of the republic as we know it seems like an irreversible precedent being set. Rip Roberto Jr. I think that it is indicative of some kind of civil war, as I've stated before. But I think that it can easily be averted if we stay the course in winning the culture war. Culture will then dictate what is permissible.
Starting point is 01:38:55 I think the actions Democrats are taking are so extreme, it's going to result in people refusing to vote for Democrats. It doesn't mean they'll vote for Trump. It means that they're going to be like, this is crazy. I don't have anything to do with this. It means you're going to come to people and you're going to be like, I know Trump is bad, but I mean, look at all the indictments. They're basically getting crazy. Like it's getting out of hand and people are going to be like, geez, you're going to get to the point where people say to the Democrats, just shut up already.
Starting point is 01:39:19 I don't care anymore. And then that indifference results in Trump winning. There's no guarantee that Trump does get revenge or fixes anything, but it's a start. We'll see what happens in 2024 because I don't see the Democrats just forgetting if they lose. I certainly don't see Trump supporters forgetting if they lose either. For the time being, though, I think we're in a decent spot, even if they are going after Trump, so long as Trump plays the right cards, whatever those cards may be. Let's grab some more super chats. Grofty says, buck buck people.
Starting point is 01:39:47 LOL, I'm dumb. Well, that's unfortunate. Gabriel William Paul. Hey, Tim, I'm meeting my cousin's husband for the first time tomorrow. He was recently on the cover of a very famous magazine for his company's work with CRISPR technology. Going to be worth billions. Wow. What should I ask him?
Starting point is 01:40:02 I don't know. Ian, what do you think we should ask him? Oh, can you genetically engineer people so they don't have to breathe or that they can breathe every minutes can you or make them see super far alter someone's genes slowly over time so that their body slowly changes into something else so i'd imagine what you'd have to do is you would have to create dna with minor changes that don't cause your body to fail and so what i'm saying is like turn someone's hair you know brown again from white or eyes blue from brown or something or vice versa how long would it take and is it possible i'd imagine they use viruses you know they'll like
Starting point is 01:40:46 put the new genetics in the virus i imagine it's possible but i but at present technology i have to imagine that it would be like every week you get a new slightly updated virus to alter your genetics and it would take over seven years to fully change everything crazy yeah but then you're uh you know you you you if you literally not the same person would you guys do genetic therapy for anything i heard they can regrow teeth oh hell yeah really yeah there's like research on them regrowing teeth yeah yes crazy stem cells maybe my teeth need work i wonder if i could genetic alterations for my muscles develop faster and bigger and stronger. Oh, I read something interesting.
Starting point is 01:41:27 And people who are listening, let me know what you think. I read that you drink a protein shake before bed. Okay, I'll do that tonight. Yeah, so no sugar. And it says to aim for like less than 100 calories total. And if you do 30 to 40 grams of protein just before bed, then your body, it causes muscle growth it speeds up muscle muscle muscle protein muscle protein synthesis the protein that i take is uh isopure and it's just protein so there's no carbs in it so that helps
Starting point is 01:41:58 you monitor your macros a little bit better you can get that and mix that with water and it's just the calories from the protein, just whey protein, zero carbs. It doesn't taste great when you mix it with water, but it does dissolve pretty well. Take that right before you go to bed.
Starting point is 01:42:13 I recommend the Jocko Mulk. I'm not saying that's the only way to go. Jocko, it's less than one gram of carbs per scoop, 22 grams of protein and it's got monk fruit sweetener,
Starting point is 01:42:23 which is allulose. So it's not an artificial sweetener. It allulose so it's an it's not an artificial sweetener it's a it's a fruit extract that tastes sweet but your body does not uh process it just like sugar just gets rid of it jocko willink you're talking about yeah okay he's got his own protein uh because we were talking about this before i bought i think it's called gold standard or something and it's got splenda it's got sucralose in it i'm like ah it's gross yeah i don't i don't care about that i will i will i will eat a block of like you know ian's got sucralose in it. And I'm like, ah, it's gross. Yeah. I don't, I don't care about that. I will, I will, I will eat a block of like, you know, Ian's got the naked way. It's just pure way.
Starting point is 01:42:47 Yeah. Like, give me that. I don't care. But then I looked up, you know, no Splenda and the Jocko stuff came up and it's got like seven ingredients or whatever. And it is the best tasting I've had. I see. I'm looking at a isopure right now.
Starting point is 01:42:59 They've got a vegan stuff to Taylor Silverman. If you're listening, she's vegan looking for a good protein. There you go. Plant based. I got to tell you, man, uh, I i do not get enough protein i was not getting enough protein it's crazy i so i've been skating more and i skate and i get super sore and then i'm like man that kind of sucks you know my recovery takes forever and then i looked up how much protein it's at a sedentary person on average needs like 40 to 60 grams of protein
Starting point is 01:43:26 and i'm like dude i'm getting like 30 to 40 per day that's it and i'm not sedentary i skate it's like no wonder so i bought the the protein didn't like i bought the jaco protein now i have a protein shake within a half an hour of completing the workout nice and almost no recovery time i wake up the next day feeling like a million bucks the best thing you can do if you if you notice that like you you're sore after you exercise and stuff add a meal add a meal and make sure it's a high protein meal that's the best way to to to make sure that your your soreness goes away as fast as possible make sure that your body has the building blocks to repair the muscle damage that you do so uh see. Wynn says casein protein, not whey protein. Why is that?
Starting point is 01:44:06 Why not whey? I had a whey. Casein's like a slower burn, right? Is that what it is? I'm not 100% sure the difference between casein and whey. I know whey is from milk usually. So is casein, yeah. I had a choco milk before bed.
Starting point is 01:44:22 And I woke up feeling better than i felt in a very very long time that was crazy yeah gotta get up feeling like a lightning surging i was like wow choco's the man yeah he's cool dude and and uh man impressive i really love the getting rid of the garbage chemicals out of food things happening yeah i don't know if seed oils are bad but i appreciate anybody getting stuff out of food that shouldn't be there if i want to eat a steak i want the ingredients to be steak we've got the carnivore snacks jerky ingredients beef salt works for me you don't even think it needs a salt i will eat it with just a fat and a beef partly why i'm into stem cell meat because the cow you don't know what it's been eating its whole life you don't know all
Starting point is 01:44:57 that feces that is passing through it and like all that junk that is involved with that meat so like grow it in a lab you know that exactly what's in it exactly what the life has been for that piece of yeah people are saying casein is slow release so have that before bed the jaco stuff says time to release or something on it but i'll definitely pick up some casein stuff do you do protein shakes i've done casein powder before and shakes usually in the morning i probably should do it at night. I guess it sounds like. I'm going to write that down because I'm going to order some literally once we wrap. Yeah, dude.
Starting point is 01:45:33 Yeah, it has to do with the digestion time is what it seems like. Really? Casein takes a longer time, like Mayor says, slow burn. And then whey protein is pretty quick from what I understand. Interesting. Right after workout. Casein comes from the word casein from Latin meaning cheese. Oh, there you go. All right. Let's grab some more. What do we got? K-scene comes from the word K-scene from Latin meaning cheese. There you go.
Starting point is 01:45:47 Alright, let's grab some more. What do we got? Kurtalingus, that's a good name, says Tim, several months ago I saw one of your music videos as a YouTube ad. I was shocked. I can't remember what the song was. The video was animated. What was the song? I can't find it anywhere. The song is called Will of the People and it's because when we made that music video we didn't really
Starting point is 01:46:03 think about what we were doing with music so we just uploaded it to this channel so if you search youtube for tim cast will of the people you'll find it and now all of the new music appears on the tim cast music youtube channel and uh i think someone else actually asked about uh our uh what's going on with them oh here we go matthew schneider says hey tim when is your next song coming out looking forward to it let me know if you need an alto saxophone player i can improvise and play every major scale sure i mean perhaps saxophone is wicked cool yeah alto too yeah i like saxophone um the next music video is coming out probably very soon i think in the next couple of weeks that's the one we're working on yeah well we'll finish shooting it in two weeks a week and a half and then i the post i think it's gonna take about a month in post
Starting point is 01:46:49 tough to say exactly but it's there's stuff being done in the video now but the reason this one's taking a lot longer is because first at for the music video ian stopped eating and drinking for a couple days filmed the scene filmed act three then started eating and working out got better more you know filled back out and uh filmed act two and now ian is working out and eating a lot more and then we'll film act one so that in the music video he's actually slowly disintegrating and getting weaker and frailer and man it was one verse order i i didn't eat for a couple days i was down to 127 pounds when we shot the end of the thing. And I was miserable. It was like method acting.
Starting point is 01:47:27 Like I truly was that miserable character you see in the music video. It's incredible. So the, it's going to be, it's going to be good. We'll see. Yeah. You know,
Starting point is 01:47:35 month and a half. And then, and then we already do have the next song after that nearing completion, but the music video, I don't know what will be. And then we'll see where we go after that. But we're just, you know, we're chilling with it. I'm not trying to force stuff out.
Starting point is 01:47:49 I, you know, a lot of people are resistant to overtly political songs. And so most of the stuff that we put out is not political. This one is passively political. It has a message. We'll see how much people care. And then I think we're getting close to political season and we've got a couple political songs you can you can write political songs that like people don't really that don't people don't feel like they're being preached at like there's a song on right on the fall of ideals that's literally like i i i'm kind of nervous to say this because the left leftist
Starting point is 01:48:20 might get an idea but it's a very it's very anti-fascist like intentionally specifically says i will not fall i will not fall down to fascist beliefs or whatever it's like and it's legitimately an anti-fascist song no one would know because i'm not sitting there being like you got to do this and you got to do that blah blah blah you know so yeah i love a million to one i think it is political in that it's like a david versus goliath kind of feeling like that you know citizen versus this government goliath thing that you think you can't handle this international government and like that's kind of what it's about yeah and that's what i was getting from it today while i was thinking about it singing about it kind of i think the song is basically about people who claim that it's impossible to
Starting point is 01:49:07 succeed and anybody who succeeds is the exception not the rule when in reality that's not true it's but it's both true and not true at the same time the people who succeed are technically the exception because there's very few who succeed but it's because they chose to succeed they worked really really hard and they found their path and they never gave up. The basic idea is when they did these studies about what is the determining factor in success, they found the only thing that mattered was perseverance. Yeah. That no matter how many times you failed,
Starting point is 01:49:33 you kept working at it. And there are people who are wealthy and failed and gave up and they're not successful. And there are people who are poor, who never gave up, who became successful. And people who are poor, who gave up and lost. And people who are rich, who had perseverance and became successful. I got kicked out of a band and then i started all that remains
Starting point is 01:49:48 and then i tried out for another band and didn't get it both of those bands and the aughts like went on to be very big bands and all that remains took a couple records to get ourselves off the ground but like i didn't stop just because i got kicked out of a band what bands do you talk about it publicly yeah i was in band i was in a band called shadows fall and I got kicked out of a band. What bands? Do you talk about it publicly? Yeah, I was in a band called Shadows Fall. And then I tried out for a band called Killswitch Engage. And this guy, Howard Jones, got the job for Killswitch. Wow, you were almost in Killswitch. Yeah, I flew out and filled in for Killswitch for a month.
Starting point is 01:50:16 They called me. They called me in the middle of the night. Adam's like, can you get on a plane tomorrow? And I'm like, can you get my dog to D.C.? Because at the time I was married and I had my dog and my ex-wife was in DC and they they got the dog to DC and I got on a plane flew down to California and did a
Starting point is 01:50:32 month of touring with Killswitch Engage on 24 hours notice. Imagine if you got kicked out of that band and you were like and you went to AMC and applied to be a theater manager instead I mean the reason all that remains the reason is all that remain the reason all that remains is successful is because y'all ain't going to kick me out and then me fail. That was the like, I wasn't going to be the guy that failed.
Starting point is 01:50:52 Like I wasn't going to be like, because there was a bunch of bands from my area that were getting signed and going off and doing stuff. And I was like, I'm not going to be the dude that gets left behind while all my friends go off and and you know live their dream as a rock stars and and i just don't do it i'm not gonna quit i'm not gonna stop i'm gonna start another band and do it and uh i was talking about this earlier i once uh i've been homeless several times and i once lived in a band space that cost 100 bucks a month it was literally just a room probably about twice the size of this. And there was nothing else. It was drywall and wood plywood separating you from the other rooms. And there's a single shared bathroom.
Starting point is 01:51:32 And we had discarded van seats that we got from the side of the road to sleep on. And it was just get you out of the weather outside, right? Yeah. Just give you something to have over your head. A little bit of running water. I mean, I could have just went and did menial labor or some other nonsense there's something so freeing about that and you can tend to do your i do some of my best creative work when i'm in those like sparse conditions you know what a lot of it is hey you better do some shit because you ain't
Starting point is 01:52:01 got nothing going on so you it's motivating to go do some stuff, you know, more freedom too. Cause like nothing's on the line. So you can be risky cause you have nothing to lose. Yeah. Once we get the new space set up, we should do a big show.
Starting point is 01:52:14 If you guys are interested in playing, we can get the band and we can get the band. If I can get everybody in the same place at the same time. Yeah. Well, we'll do this. I have a great trick to pull that off. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:52:23 I'll offer them money. There you go. Dollars, dollars, help dollars. All right. Think a great trick to pull that off. Yeah, I'll offer them money. There you go. Dollars, dollars help. Dollars. All right. Think on this says regarding Trump must be guilty of something. Ben Shapiro today said that Trump literally said, look at this classified document. But I thought it was obvious it was an article.
Starting point is 01:52:36 T was talking about. Is there another instance or has been just guilty as Fox in in in dieting? It's about dieting wrong. I don't know what Ben said. I know that there's an audio recording where Trump is like,
Starting point is 01:52:48 he's like, look at this, you know, this story, I could have declassified this, you know, but I didn't.
Starting point is 01:52:53 And what people are pointing out is that Trump was talking to reporters, probably pulled up a news, a printout of a
Starting point is 01:52:59 news story that said Milley claimed he tried to stop Trump from bombing Iran or something, and that Trump said he should have declassified the story behind it, but they can make the context whatever they
Starting point is 01:53:09 want it to be. That's the manipulation in the lies. I'll give you an example of how they manipulate context. The Ron DeSantis campaign took a clip that was shot and filmed by Alad Eliyahu, who is a reporter for Timcast. They took that clip and did nothing else and put on it paid for by Ron DeSantis. I then said they tagged the video paid for by Ron DeSantis. DeSantis supporters then put a community note on my video saying advertisements must label as per FEC rules to make it seem like what I was actually saying is that there was a full two minute long ad that included my clip, the Timcast clip, that Ron DeSantis labeled the whole video on, when in fact what I was saying was they posted only our clip with, it wasn't an ad. The video was not an ad. And they used a fact check to
Starting point is 01:53:57 alter the context behind it because you couldn't actually watch the video. That's the manipulation. So in terms of what Trump said, it sounds like he picked up a story and said look at this you know look at this right here he's like i could have declassified that because he's just speaking in generalities he's not saying that was classified but they use it to claim there he was showing classified documents it's a manipulation and they didn't indict trump over that story which i think also proves he didn't have document they were they were manipulating what trump actually said technically one of the indictments it's not he was not indicted on on that on that document yep which is which again implies he was literally
Starting point is 01:54:36 so we knew from the first in the first place that they said the boxes trump has included a box he had included magazine and newspaper clippings then you you get this audio and it's like, oh, so was that the newspaper clipping he had? I don't know what he's holding up and saying, look at this. They want you to assume. Don't get manipulated like that. Ryan Jobs says, pissing off Nintendo with playing pirated SSBB and watching three hours of news entertainment of a place literally on the other side of the planet. Surprisingly, this is a moment where there is nothing i would be more happy to do super smash brothers super smash brothers what's the second b battlegrounds super smash brothers
Starting point is 01:55:13 brawl brawl yeah is that is that the new one or bro that's old one right i think yeah it's after melee so yeah and melee was the best yeah. You know what I really hate about video games? They'll accidentally make a really amazing feature that was a bug. I think with Melee, it was wave dashing. And then they're like, well, better get rid of that really fun thing that made it a skill game. And everyone gets mad because it's actually what makes the game fun. VR canceling from Halo 2. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:55:42 You used to be able to do a hit and you could cancel the animation so that you could recover faster and shoot and you kill someone like it felt it seemed like one motion yeah there are a bunch of shooter games have reload canceling yep so like so i think this could be destiny i don't i don't remember i don't know but one of the examples was like the reload animation took a couple seconds but if if right at a certain point when the reload happens, you switch weapons, the reload is complete, and stuff like that. Street Fighter 2,
Starting point is 01:56:12 combos were an accident, and people, yeah, combos were an accident. No, I did not know that. Yeah, it was a bug. It was a glitch. You weren't supposed to be able to string moves together perfectly that would result in beating your opponent. Yeah, with no chance to block or break and then people first complained and they were like yo he just did three moves
Starting point is 01:56:30 there was no opportunity for me to even do anything and then they were like that that's a feature called a combo like m bison psych i think m bison and r had some nasty... Bison was supposed to be Balrog. Yeah. Vega was Bison, and... No, Bison was Vega, and Vega was Balrog. It was... And it was because Mike Tyson's... Yes, it was going to be M. Tyson, but they couldn't get his right, so they said M. Bison instead. And then they said, we're going to sue you anyway, because... And then they moved the name to the end boss instead of the boxer.
Starting point is 01:56:59 And made him Balrog. I love that. Let's grab some more Super Chats. Ryan Jepsen says, for some reason, for the longest time, I had to go to a different web browser to see the show. Balrog. I love that. Let's grab some more super chats. Ryan Jeff says, for some reason, for the longest time, I had to go to a different web browser to see the show. I was using a VPN in that browser, but I never had any problem with any other videos at the time.
Starting point is 01:57:14 Interesting. No idea. Big Dan T says, I am a circuit clerk in West Virginia. The procedure of this whole GA thing is very strange. The early post of the indictment tells me that the jury was either fixed or did not even matter. Yeah, like the grand jury, yeah. They said it was an accident, and then the girl said she accidentally hit send instead of save.
Starting point is 01:57:34 First, they said it was a fictitious document. Then they said it was a sample. Then she said the woman accidentally hit send instead of save. Uh-huh. The bigger the story, the bigger they lie, they say, right? Yeah. Asiri Design says the Supreme Court has been oddly quiet lately. Hmm, interesting.
Starting point is 01:57:53 They're out of session, aren't they? Yeah, I think. Pauly Shortcut says Tim Newsome resuscitates Joe. What if Trump at Mar-a-Lago and Ron arms up with Navy buddies, state law enforcement and guard? Would you vote for him if Don gives his blessing? If Don Donald Trump goes to Mar-a-Lago and then goes on TV and says, I will surrender when they serve documents to law enforcement in Florida confirming the charges and the time and date of surrender, if Ron DeSantis then says on TV,
Starting point is 01:58:27 when asked, Mr. Governor, did you receive the charging documents from Georgia requesting extradition? If Ron goes, we did. I received them and I crumpled them up and threw them in the trash. Next question. Then I'd be like, okay,
Starting point is 01:58:40 that guy's back on my list. I just don't see him doing something like that. But that would be really, really big. Here's my question with all of this let's say donald trump goes to mar-a-lago you have to serve people you can't just go on cnn and be like i just like you all to know that i'm suing phil labonte and he has to be in court tomorrow and it's like but but what is what that's not a legal serving of anything. Like, there's no way that's legal. No. So this woman, what's her name?
Starting point is 01:59:08 Fannie? Fannie Willis. Fannie Willis. She goes on TV and says they have 10 days to surrender. Okay, what she's actually saying is the law enforcement of Georgia has to send legal notice to Trump. Where is he? You can't just be like, he's been indicted.
Starting point is 01:59:24 He's got 10 days. It's like, what if you're 10 days it's like what if what if you're in alaska you know what i mean like what if trump was on vacation in the bahamas and he comes back in three weeks he doesn't even know he's been indicted yeah making a tv show doesn't guarantee that he even saw it or anyone else even saw it it's not a legal process to be like we went on tv and exclaimed it so trump should have known better so let's say trump goes to florida and says i've not seen the documents i've not seen charges. I've heard on TV the same thing as everybody else. But legal process due process requires a legal service. I await that legal
Starting point is 01:59:56 service at my home, which I will gladly respond to when I receive. What are they going to do? Georgia is going to send GBI into florida they have no jurisdiction there they can't they'd have to contact florida government and say hey we have an indictment for donald trump ronda sandis could then be like shove it up your ass if if he does that then he then i i mean look i'm pissed off about the deep state the deep fake thing but it's not like he can't remedy that in other ways if he did something like that i'd be very very happy but we will see we will see i have no idea i think trump will just surrender i think he's gonna go there but they're gonna put him in jail we'll get the mugshot this time i'm
Starting point is 02:00:34 excited for the t-shirt i think they're gonna i think there's a high probability they remand trump to custody because jack smith already made the argument that trump is a flight risk so yeah so i would not be surprised if they go there and argue to the judge that Donald Trump should not be allowed to leave as he is the most serious flight risk of any candidate. And the severity, the RICO charges, I have a feeling they say yes. Also, the process is the punishment. They want to inflict maximum embarrassment and harassment on these individuals rudy cassone says kemp is supposed to be a republican these are state charges why is there no pressure on him to pardon it's a pardon board in georgia not uh the governor
Starting point is 02:01:17 can't just do it he the governor appoints a pardon board who can then make these decisions or whatever he also unfortunately can't remove the prosecutor because it's a commission that does that as well yeah i think georgia is a very very deeply corrupt state and i have to wonder maybe the reason kemp is going after trump is because he stole the election from stacy abrams that's right what if stacy abrams was telling the truth the whole time ke camp stole the election and then they came to him and said we will destroy you unless you help biden win and then he went uh-oh they were like we know what you did and how you did it but we're gonna let it slide as long as you do what we want we'll let you be governor but b. Bum, bum, bum.
Starting point is 02:02:08 Let's, here we go. There was one about Vivek. What do we have? Christopher Daniels says, ninth and 10th amendment time. It's always ninth and 10th amendment time. Promethean Healing says, Tim, have you ever tried raw milk?
Starting point is 02:02:21 I tried it a couple of months ago and have been buying it ever since. In fact, I had some earlier today. As did I. Yeah, it was delicious. You said it it ever since in fact I had some earlier today as did I yeah What delicious you said it tasted like cheese, but I think that was a peach Yeah, I had like it didn't it didn't it had like a cheesy in the back sides of the tongue It didn't like give me that salty cheese flavor. I think that was the peach really Yeah, it was like a raw milk peach jam and so we did was did was we went to a farm and i bought pet milk and pet cream it's not for human consumption right and then we ate it uh we i put it i put uh it was
Starting point is 02:02:55 like one third uh one part uh raw heavy cream three parts milk and a tablespoon of farm fresh peach jam i can only and a a scoop of naked whey protein. I don't think words can do justice. How delicious it was. How natural it was like filling and I digested it rapidly. It was so good. And that's just I mean, the flavor itself was spectacular. It's crazy.
Starting point is 02:03:19 I felt so good. Yeah. Indescribable. You know, it doesn't go bad, too. It just becomes yogurt yogurt which is crazy because pasteurized milk goes bad just raw milk pasteurized milk goes bad so quickly but raw milk will just turn into yogurt really yep how do you make it sour cream i have no idea because they're different i was in ukraine and i asked for sour cream with my food and they brought yogurt and i
Starting point is 02:03:41 looked at i'm like that's clearly yogurt and then they were insistent there's no difference and I was like I can tell you that sour cream is like it's like tart and delicious on everything and I would not want to put fruit in my sour cream all right everybody if you haven't already would you smash that like button subscribe to this channel share the show with your friends and head over to timcast.com.
