Timcast IRL - TimcastIRL #34 - Hospitals Push Universal DO NOT RESUSCITATE Orders For Coronavirus Patients

Episode Date: March 26, 2020

Tim and Adam look at some of the sobering new developments in the medical field as the healthcare system struggles to cope with ways to keep doctors and staff healthy and preserve equipment. Their solution sounds...draconian. And younger and younger patients are starting to get the virus.  Meanwhile, people coughing on and licking things are being charged with terrorism, and some Bible scholars suggest that it's the end of days Merch - https://teespring.com/stores/timcast-2 Podcast available on iTunes and Spotify, coming soon to all podcast platforms!

What's going on, everybody? Welcome to the show. My name is Tim Poole. And I'm Adam Krugler. That's Adam. Hello. We're hanging out. We also got Lydia of Whiterun chilling. Hello. Hi. Dude, the news is getting scary. It is getting scary.

Seriously getting scary. There was a period where it kind of felt like things were chilling out. Yeah. I was feeling better. Seemed like things might get back to normal. Trump's talking about getting things back up and going by Easter. Yeah. Stock market's rallying but now we're then then what was it the surgeon general said no it's gonna get it's gonna get real bad and then and then someone posted something i saw this uh

i don't know where i saw this they said april 1st tiktok what's going on with that rent is due oh no one pays rent yeah right nobody's worked for the past what week and a half two weeks two weeks most people can't handle a 400 bill let alone two weeks of not working at all and right now uh the funny the the funny story that everyone's talking about is that cheesecake factory is not going to pay its rent and it's like it's not necessarily funny haha it's funny like people are laughing like oh no cheesecake factory they're joining the socialist revolution or something that's scary it's a major food chain i honestly kind of expected them to die off already but

they're long ago dude they're always packed it's like a big mall restaurant i had no idea i yeah the last time i was in there was with you and What do you mean to us? It was kind of. It was a weekend. It was packed. But it was a weekend. It's not even about whether we want to speculate as to the economic health of the Cheesecake Factory franchise. The matter remains. They're not paying their rent.

Dude, April 1st is days away. And many people have just skipped a paycheck or more. Yeah. And they're going to be like, I don't have it. Yeah, what are they going to do? I'm not going to pay it. Oh, they can't get evicted right now right i mean i don't know but but but this is gonna ripple man because check it out yeah that means all of these landlords who are waiting for that money to come

in to pay their bills right boom that's when it hits it's gonna ripple out like a man like a gong slam yeah landlords then they have no money. Can't pay the maintenance people. Here we go. And that's just the first thing on the list. Yeah, man. Man, this is getting scary. Well, before we get going, I don't know if you guys can see my shirt.

Let me get the mic out of the way. Check that out. Check out my nice shirt. For those that are listening. Anybody recognize this shirt? Adam is wearing a shirt with my beanie on it. I am wearing his beanie on my shirt. Very cute.

This came in the mail today. We got, it's the wrong colors, but it's pretty sweet. It's okay. It's clearly a beanie. This needs to be darker, but I think it's great. You know what's funny? It actually matches my hat, my colored beanie. It's a fusion.

It's a fusion of our beanies. All right, all right. Anyway, yeah. Even though the world is ending, we all have a good laugh. That's right. Get your beanie shirt. And then we have a nervous laugh because it's getting scary out there, man. But hey, before we get started with the first story, which is one of the scariest things I have ever heard.

Yeah. Hospitals are basically saying, you die. You die. Yeah. You die and we're not going to save you this is from the washington post hospitals consider universal do not resuscitate order for coronavirus patients that basically means if you are brought to the hospital with coronavirus and you start going into it they're going to be like yeah it's nice knowing you buddy i mean they'll they'll put you on the ventilator though right is that the case i don't know or is and you start going into it, they're going to be like, it's nice knowing you, buddy. I mean, they'll put you on the ventilator though, right? Is that the case?

I don't know. Or is it after? No, I don't know. After that and then it doesn't work, then it's like, maybe nothing else we can do. Maybe. I would think that they would draw the line at trying to resuscitate.

Obviously, DNRs do not resuscitate. So doing compressions and stuff. Right. That's like emergency. They're talking about all hands responses right so you're on a ventilator you start spazzing out they're gonna be like no code blue just kidding nothing we can do boy bye dude you know there i was reading some of these stories and they said that there were people who were on ventilators and you can see them

slowly turning blue really oxygen in their lungs on maximum pressure yeah because the fluid build up was so intense that even with pure oxygen and they have the machine blowing air in and pulling out, your lungs are always inflated. You're not breathing. You're just knocked out with a tube down your throat and people are slowly turning blue

because they were getting no oxygen. So they're basically like, you know what? We can't do anything about it. I mean, how do you do anything about it other than like operating and taking out the fluid or scraping the sides of the lungs you can't you can't no can you even do that no because it's a fine network of really really tiny little capillaries little balloons and what's what's what i was reading is they said that when they fill with fluid they and

then they put when they when they put people on the ventilators at max pressure yeah it starts breaking up all the little, what are they called, like alveoli or something? Yeah. Whatever. They start bursting and then they become

completely useless. Oh. They'll die. So the ventilators are actually having a negative effect. Well, you're dead without it, but it slowly rips

your lungs apart. Oh my God. Dude, people don't get it, man. This is insane. Listen, listen, listen. They're saying the hospitalization rate is 20%, right?

Okay. Like you realize that means if we don't have hospitals, the mortality rate's like 20%. Yeah, that's true. If somebody needs to be in a hospital because they're collapsing, that's a bit of an exaggeration. It's not 20% because some people need to be in hospitals just for observation because they're getting bad. Yeah. But if it's even 10% of people, because Governor Cuomo said 15%, New York has right now, according to Cuomo, 10,600 beds available, ICU beds. That means they can handle, based on their own numbers, 70,000 people in New York City getting sick. Eight million people live in New York City.

Alone, just a city. And this is spreading fast. I thought it was nine million. It's probably, I mean, look. 8.6 or something? Yeah, but when you combine the suburbs, places like New Rochelle or like, what else

you got? You got Westchester? No, no, no. What's north of New York on the western of Manhattan? I don't know. Whatever it's called. Yonkers? Yeah, there's Yonkers. Isn't Westchester? I would imagine. Oh, they're on the west. I don't know. Whatever. called yonkers yeah there's yonkers there's also isn't westchester is that it there imagine oh they're on the west i don't know whatever the point is it goes up to like 13 million so that's why everyone's freaking out yeah because people don't realize the mortality rate's down because people are working overtime in hospitals yeah so once we reach maximum like like full capacity it's like, then the deaths are just going to really

start going up. Yep. Because right now we're, like, handling it as best we can with the load that we can take care of. Yeah. Man. Well, so we're at this point now. The Washington Post is reporting it.

But guess what? This story that we're seeing about the Washington Post, it's been repeated by El Pais in Spain and in Italy. That they're getting to the point where it's in different forms,, it's been repeated by Al Pais in Spain and in Italy, that they're getting to the point where it's in different forms, but it's basically deciding that you must die now. Yeah. That I'm sorry, it's your time. And the scary thing is, this is the most extreme I've ever seen it, where they're saying universal

DNR. So like in Italy and Spain, they're basically saying, perhaps we just let the old people die and prioritize the young. Yeah. They're not even saying that. Right here they're saying everybody. Anyone. Everybody. Anyone who reaches that point. And that's the other thing too. We got a bunch of stories

here about young people who are dead. 21 year old, 25 year old, 22 year old. Is that a 17 year old? That was a 17 year old. So you were saying there was an infant. There is a two month old right now in life support and there's a newborn in isolation. And it's because they have coronavirus. And it's like they were they've been reporting as far as I remember that it doesn't affect kids.

Yeah. Doesn't it doesn't hit kids at all. No, no, dude. The media is full of it. They're probably full of it right now. I had no idea what's going on. I have no idea what's going on. I have no idea, man. Because from the end of January till mid-February, the media was going nuts saying,

eh, the flu's worse. Yeah. And now a bunch of people are saying that, and they're going, those dumb conspiracy theorists. Bro, they were reading your news outlet. Right. The Washington Post on, what was it, February 4th. Get a grip, America.

The flu is way worse. Where are we at now? A month later, we will not try and save your life. I'm sorry. Thanks, Washington Post. That's on you. You know, look, I was critical of the president for having a doubt, having downplayed the response. But now the media is trying to act like they were right as well. No, everybody got this one wrong. Yeah, not everybody. Tucker was right. Tucker Carlson, Fox News was on this real early, February 3rd, I think. But there were a lot of people who were on this early and it wasn't the media. They were the ones who were dancing around talking about how there's a meme going around. It's not really a meme, but it's this graphic of all of these different news articles. It's ridiculous. Like 25, 30, maybe even like 40

news articles where it's like the flu is worse. The flu is worse. Ignore this. Trump is exaggerating. He's, he's a bigot and all this crazy stuff where they downplayed it. And that's where we, this is where we get to be right now. So this article is crazy. Yeah, man. Well, let's, uh, let's, let's, let's read. Let's read. But, um, real quick before we do, if you guys want to get in the super chat and have your questions answered by us, we will jump over and make sure you subscribe if you want to get more videos. But let's let's read from the Washington Post. They say hospitals on the front lines of the pandemic are engaged in a heated private debate over a calculation few have encountered in their lifetimes. How to weigh the quote save at all costs approach to resuscitating a dying patient

against the real danger of exposing doctors and nurses to the contagion of coronavirus. The conversations are driven by the realization that the risk to staff amid dwindling stores of protective equipment, such as masks, gowns, and gloves, may be too great to justify the conventional response when a patient codes and their heart or breathing stops. Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago has been discussing a universal do not resuscitate policy for infected patients, regardless of the wishes of the patient or their family members. A wrenching decision to prioritize the lives of the many over the one. I want you to imagine something right now. I want you to imagine that's you inside a hospital and

that's your mom on a breathing tube. And all of a sudden you start hearing beeping going off and you start screaming, help her, please. And the doctor holds you back and says, no. Dude, the people who downplayed this stuff, the people who joked and laughed about it, the people who think it's not happening. It's like, I'll tell you what, man. When it finally comes to you, this is worse than the grasshopper and the ant. The story where the grasshopper, you know the story?

Yeah. I talked about this when it came to supplies. Like, you know, when the store shelves get, you know, shredded, you know, you're going to be, you're going to come knocking. This is way worse. It's going to be you on your knees begging, please save my mom, save my dad,

save my friend, save my spouse, whatever. Yeah. And it's not, and we could have seen this coming. Check this out. In Italy, the extraordinary decision facing Italian doctors. There are now simply too many patients for each one of them to receive adequate care. A lot of people think it's not happening. Yeah, they've reached critical mass over there in Italy.

So now it's like getting to that point. And that was two weeks ago. That was a while ago. That was two weeks ago. So they're saying now that Italy is getting... For the past two weeks, they had to make these choices yep so check it out i'm seeing a lot of people say things like i don't know anybody who has this right well good for you so yeah what does that mean right that's some selfish attitude right there yeah it's like dude have

you have you have you watched any of these videos right man it's there there a 22 year old kid. There's a let me just show you some stuff, man. And I want to come back to this, though. Oh, yeah. Twenty one year old woman with no underlying health conditions dies of coronavirus. What do people think that like all of these different governments and people who hate each other are working on the secret plot like Trump and the Democrats are working together to trick people like that's ridiculous, man. Do you think she was a smoker? I don't know. Because I hear that if you're a smoker, it's significantly worse.

It does make it more likely. So, I mean, I'm hearing all these younger people are dying. And it's like, were they smokers? Because, I mean, I used to be a smoker and I haven't quit smoking six years ago. So it's been a long time since I've had a cigarette, but I hear it's really bad for your lungs in general. Totally. Let alone a lung disease.

Yeah, I heard if you have a history of smoking. That's attacking your lungs. Listen, we just watched some videos before we went live and I can't confirm them. So that's why I'm not going to pull them up. But I believe they're more likely than not real of things going down in china to this day china's lying man definitely there's a video going viral of like a bunch of different clips

of china having like the entire highway is full of like 12 major trucks spraying disinfectant yeah out of these huge like there's cannon looking things there's people there's like one clip is a person just like laying on a bench and a bunch of guys, a couple guys in hazmat suits come and just like start taking the bodies. There's videos where someone's driving on the street and there's just bodies on the sidewalk everywhere. I kind of feel like, you know, it's crazy because right now it feels like the media, especially Trump, they're desperately trying to keep everybody, keep the morale up. Yeah. Trump is saying we're going to get back, you know, the economy is going to kick back into gear on Easter. He's like, that's my goal right now.

He's like, we'll confer with the health experts and we'll see what's going on. Dr. Fauci said we'll be flexible. I think Trump is doing that because he wants to give people some certainty right now. Yeah. So that, you know, there's going to be a lot of people who think, okay, I'm gonna invest in the market. Let's get the economy working again, because it sounds like we may have an opportunity to make some money here if we get, you know, get going in Easter. Yeah. I'm willing to bet once we get to Easter, the doctors and Trump are gonna say, we're really close. We did an assessment. We think we need one more week. And then a week's

gonna go by and they're gonna say, everything's going great. The market's going to be rallying now because we have some certainty. One more week. One more week. One more week. Three months later. Or something happens. And I think it just, you know, here's the big challenge. Hospitals need money. Hospitals need resources. And we can't, if the economy collapses, people die. And the hospitals are only going to be able to run for so long. Yep. And what happens when healthcare workers on the front line start deserting? Or the electric companies, like their employees can't make it back to work because some of

them are dying and the electricity goes out. You know, then people are really screwed. Man, it feels like we are dangerously close to the precipice on this one. It's really getting scarier and scarier every day. But here's the thing, man. The past week, it kind of felt like things were getting back to normal almost. Not entirely, but it felt like it got really scary and then started to get a little less scary. Like the store had milk again.

Well, it looks like the graph because if you look at the graph from China goes, and then it kind of teeters off for a while, and then spikes again. It feels like we were in that little stage where we're like, wait, is it under control? What's going on? And then now it's like, oh, wow, it's way worse than we thought. It actually gets a little bit scarier. So take a look at this story. Spanish doctors prepare to make difficult decisions if intensive care units reach capacity. Officials admit the worst is yet to come as Spain exceeds 1,000 deaths and field hospitals start going up across the country. This is from the 20th. Now over back at

the original story, it's not just about this one hospital's universal DNR. It's that other hospitals across the country have started deciding to prioritize who lives and who dies. It's no longer that if you're in the hospital, we'll try and save you. Now it's like, look, man, we only got so many beds. Yeah. Here, let's read a little bit more. Officials at George Washington University Hospital in the district say they had a similar they had similar conversations, but for now will continue to resuscitate COVID-19 patients

using modified procedures, such as putting plastic sheeting over the patient to create a barrier. The University of Washington Medical Center in Seattle, one of the country's major hotspots for infections, is dealing with the problem by severely limiting the number of responders to a contagious patient in cardiac or respiratory arrest. Several large hospital systems, Atrium Health in the Carolinas, Geisinger in Pennsylvania, and regional Kaiser Permanente networks are looking at guidelines that would allow doctors to override the wishes of the coronavirus patient or family members on a case-by-case basis due to the risk to doctors and nurses or a shortage of protective equipment, say ethicists and doctors

involved in those conversations. But they would stop short of imposing a do not resuscitate order on every coronavirus patient. The companies declined to comment. I want you to think about what that means. They stopped short of imposing it on every patient. Oh, how nice. That means they're literally going to be deciding, you know what? We are not going to save that person. Yeah. So now I want you to imagine that scenario set again. You're in the hospital. It's your mom and she's got a ventilator and all of a sudden beep, beeping, panic across the room is a guy beeping in panic and the doctors run in and there's a doctor in the hallway and he says, not her, him. And you say, what about my mom? And he says, we will not save her. No, back up, back up. And then a cop comes in and drags you out and you watch your mom die as they drag you

away. Maybe it's a little extreme. Yeah, it's a little extreme. But these conversations scare me. A little bit, yeah. I don't want to get to that point. I have a vivid imagination. I mean.

Yeah, a little bit. Now, if you will, the doctor gets coronavirus because he's trying to save the mom. Right, that's what they're afraid of. And then the entire staff gets it. And then all of a sudden there's no more staff or or actually something i think is worse it's you know i've i've read these stories about doctors who have gotten sick and and a couple have lost their lives in north north jersey there was this guy he was like his whole life he was like in his late 70s and he and he contracted it trying to save people and died and and to me that's like it's a very honorable way to go you

know it's sad it's sad to hear it but what's scary to me is the dishonorable way to go. When doctors start saying, I'm not getting this man. I've seen what it does. And they bail out. Nurses start saying, for what? For why? Watching people die every day, getting paid nothing, working 14 hour days and your families without toilet paper. I know that sounds like kind of funny, but I mean, like your family has lack of resources you can't pay your rent you're not making nearly enough and you're like i have to go yeah we need to get out of the city this is unsustainable then it all breaks the damn breaks so the crazy thing right now you know as we're talking about this somehow the democrats blocked the the emergency bill again.

I can't believe that. I woke up and you told me that. I was like, what? It's not the same as like on Monday they voted to stop it, which is a hard block. On Tuesday they voted to stop it, hard block. Today they just didn't vote on it. Like even though in the Senate they did. So I don't want to get too political.

But when you look at this story from the Washington Post, which is, it's, it's from today, it's, it's actually from only a couple hours ago, where we're actually entertaining the conversation where doctors will not try to save you. And we, and we have time. So many people on Twitter are saying things like the stimulus bill isn't enough money for me to pay my rent. I don't care. You're getting something. You're getting four months of guaranteed wages from the federal government. This is unprecedented. And they want to get money to hospitals and states. Governor Cuomo said, not enough. We need 10 times as much. It's like, we'll take this for now. Let's push this through as fast as we can. Right. And then maybe we'll do something. I don't know. I don't know. I didn't write the bill. There's, there's probably, you know, there's some Republicans are now are saying it's got some bad stuff in it.

All I know is I think our country is panicking. Yeah. I think for as much as, you know what, I think I'll tell, I'll tell you what, Donald Trump's approval rating is going to go 99, a hundred percent. As things get crazier and scarier and scarier, people are going to say, shut up. I don't care anymore. Save my family. Save us. When I look at, when I go to the TV and I see, when I saw what I saw today in Congress,

that freaked me out. I was dumbfounded. Right. They were only open for like a minute. A minute. Yeah. It was called a pro forma. Yeah.

It was just a formality. Because they're not allowed to skip sessions a certain number of times, like three days in a row. Okay. So they apparently went in banged it walked out so it didn't didn't consider it uh it still it's considered a session and it was it was for it was from at 10 a.m and 42 seconds until 10 a uh 10 02 and 17 seconds or something like that like a minute and 20 seconds considered a session because they were in there session? Because they were in there. They said, no business. How many people were in there? I don't know.

I don't know. This just was reported by Politico. My goodness. But here's the thing. When you turn on the TV, Trump's doing these daily press briefings. Yeah, every day. And he's saying, we have hope. And what's the press doing?

They're attacking him like crazy. Yeah, they're... So... Well, what is the press... What is their goal? What is their goal? Because their goal because i have no idea because if he's trying to give everyone hope and they're saying he's lying he's lying it's like so what you don't want us to hope you don't want the general public to like they think there's a

chance we can come out of this like there is their point cnn wrote a story that said trump peddles unsubstantiated hope what it doesn't make any sense listen i don't understand the media man i mean it's it's clicks it's money it's rage bait rage i hope i hope at least coming out of this which i i think will come out of this people will learn to not care and start and start new news according to. According to a CBS poll, listen, according to a CBS poll, the American people now trust Donald Trump more than the national media. That was it.

I'm like, I'm done. Imagine telling people two or three years ago, four years ago, when he was running for president, it's like, there's going to be a day that you trust him more than the news. Everyone's going to be like, no, no. Here we are. You know what it is?

I think it's, for one, his TV ratings, his press briefings just broke 12.2 million views more than Monday Night Football. Wow. This story. Well, there is no Monday Night Football, so people are kind of itching for something. Well, the Nielsen rating said it's Monday Night Football football ratings that's huge right comparatively like rivaling the bachelor

season finale massive so you have the bachelor that good no no no no no you know like i've never seen the bachelor i don't know anything about it but you know like a big bang theory gets 20 million viewers right are you serious yes why really? I've only seen one episode, and I didn't laugh. And I was just like, what am I watching? Yes. So here's what I think is happening, right? We have these stories like the one in the Washington Post about hospitals basically saying, you know, do not resuscitate. We're going to choose to let you go or something.

Yeah. And then that's scary. It's getting really scary. Yeah, it is. And the economy is tanking. Rent is due. People can't skip these paychecks. And so they're looking for answers as things get bad.

They turn on the TV and there's Trump. There's Dr. Fauci. People trust Fauci more than double than that of Trump. It's something like 80 some odd percent trust Dr. Fauci and 44 trust Trump. Right. They trust professionals. Trump, they trust professionals. Trump. Why? They trust professionals.

What's so big about this? He's a scientist? Is that why? He's a doctor. He's a doctor. Yeah. And he's a practicing doctor. All right, so he's legit.

He's a doctor for the administration. He's worked with several administrations. And I think he handles specifically infectious disease. Ah, okay. So here's what people see. On January 29th, Trump formed this task force. Yeah. Democrats are trying to impeach him.

On the 31st, he imposed travel restrictions. Yep. Now you can criticize him all day for downplaying the severity of this early on. Everyone was. Biden called him a xenophobe. Yeah, he said, yep, xenophobic, travel restrictions. And then I watched the interview with Biden and some reporter, and it was just embarrassing. He tried to flip it.

Dude, I think— And I was like, I know what happened. You are trying to flip it right now, and it's not working, bro. I think— He's cringey, man. I'm starting to feel like—you know, there was a big market rally today, so maybe things might turn around a little bit. Hopefully things don't get worse, but this story from the Washington Post is really alarming. But I think, you know, I was exaggerating when I said Trump will hit like 100%.

I think it's going to go up a lot because he is independent. 120%. No, but maybe like 70%. Yeah. Because there's going to surprise me. Yeah. Right now his approval rating for the handling of the coronavirus outbreak is 60 percent, according to Gallup. Wow. And Gallup's a trustworthy outlet. If you look at Congress, the Democrats and the Republicans negotiate all weekend,

come into an agreement. Come Monday, Nancy Pelosi steps in. Democrats say no. Everyone's shocked. Come Tuesday, they vote. We're not going to vote on it. They vote it down. Blocked again.

Everyone's shocked. All night, they negotiate. At one in the morning, the Democrats and Republicans announced they had an agreement. They were celebrating. That's really's really amazing. I did. I was the first thing I recorded. I was like, this is really cool. I was like, I'm glad that they got it done. I'm not going to sit here and rag on the Democrats. They got some they got some gains. They negotiated. Republicans gave a little space, increased the number in some areas. Congratulations, everybody. We got it done for America. Yeah. And then Pelosi was like, no vote. And so what I see there is, you know, I was asking a friend. I couldn't believe it. I had to I had to ask someone else, like, am I seeing this?

Is this really happening? Yeah. And what he said was Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats can't control the progressives because they will absolutely say no because they don't they don't care. So you have the you know, the Republicans and Democrats in Congress finally saying, okay, okay, this works for us. Let's get it done. Let's get it done fast. They're like, oh, they're giving us some leeway. We got to use this. Well, yes.

Squeeze them for more. They want environmental provisions. Like Nancy Pelosi's bill. Isn't it a stimulus package to help the American people? I'm just clarifying just for my own. Like, yeah, that's it, right? That's what it is. Okay.

So, but the issue here, I'm not trying to make it super political. The issue is just that the Democrats are fractured. They don't agree with each other. Right. If the Democrats in the Senate say this, we're good on this, we negotiate it, we're happy, then why wouldn't the House Democrats be like, all right, we're good to go? Because they're not a unified party. So then when you turn on the TV and you're looking for answers and you're seeing nothing but

chaos in Congress, you then see the president, you see the people all around him, and he's saying things like, this medication has been promising. He actually said, it might work, it might not. I'm hopeful. I think it'll work. We're going to try and push this one through and do what we can. Yeah. And then he got attacked for it. and then now that's the woman whose husband died because he fish cleaner or fish and they blame it on intestinal clean out look as far as i'm concerned and they're running with that story i still see stuff today about it it's like are you kidding me you're still running with the story it's so bad the new york York Times. Anyone with any logic would see right through that. Here's how they launder information.

The New York Times wrote a story about Trump's ratings going through the roof and his approval ratings going through the roof. And in it, they passively say Trump has been heavily criticized for encouraging people to consume a dangerous product or a product that is unproven to help, which resulted in a man dying after ingesting a similar compound. So they slipped that in there. Yep. And now that New York Times story becomes historical reference. It goes on Wikipedia. It goes in encyclopedias.

And they say Trump did it. It's like, dude, the guy never said to take powdered fish antiparasitics and put it in your drink and drink it. I know. That's insane. And it's like, yeah, exactly. exactly it's ridiculous these people are crazy long story short the point i was trying to get to with this past you know bit is that yeah i don't want to be uh i don't know a doomsayer but these past few stories i've been reading it does not sound good i've tried to be optimistic

and say like hey you know like the market's rallying. This is good news. But you look at what's happening in some other countries and there's a bit of good news. But I think China's lying. Because you see these videos that are circulating and they're recent ones. Don't believe them. Like, I don't believe what China's saying. I see these videos and it's like.

Yeah, they're saying that no more infections. Yeah, they were on that steep uphill climb then they're like oh oh we're done oh we figured it out that's crazy we figured it out we just won't tell anybody but we're still gonna commandeer exports yeah i'm not gonna give you those masks you need yeah good luck with that so i don't i don't know here's what here's what i'm here's what's worrying to me it looks like with today watching how the democrats handled things yeah it seems like our government is in a panic. It's disarray.

I think so too. Yeah. I agree. Except for Trump, who's not- He's keeping it together. He's trying. But I'm not saying he's like a steadfast, vigilant soldier. He's just less panicky and spazzy than the rest of them. Yeah.

You know, like he's actually coming out saying, here's what we're going to do. It's like, okay. You know, a lot of those, a lot of the congressmen and women are in a comfortable bubble. And that bubble is being popped right now because they're susceptible. A lot of them are older. You know, and you've got all these stupid young people running around doing stuff, like spreading it around. They're scared. Let's actually do this.

Let's just show some of these stories. Oh, yeah. Sure. So the first one I want to show is Washington State football player Bryce Beekman found dead at 22 after experiencing breathing problems as the school remains closed due to coronavirus. This in no way has anything to do with coronavirus. The headline just put that in there. Everyone is locked down.

Everyone is locked down. Yeah, yeah. Someone was saying to us yesterday that, or maybe the other day, that her friend's grandma passed away. And they just, there's any death that's happening right now. No, that's that story. What was that? That's another fake text meme. Oh, it was? Yep.

I have heard that exact same story. Really? My friend said that, you know, their grandma, and I've heard the exact same thing from like 10 people now. Oh, okay. Good to know. Good to know. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I don't know.

Maybe it's true. Well, then what's this one? What's this one about then? So this is just the media taking advantage. Now, it's possible this dude did have coronavirus. Okay. Because there have been a lot of videos coming out of some of these other countries where somebody will be walking and they'll just collapse because they didn't realize how sick they were. There are stories about people who felt fine and then within an hour had a crazy fever and shortness of breath and were like wheezing.

Yeah. It's possible. He didn't know. But I think what they're doing here is trying to coronavirus. Oh, look, he died. Ah, click on me. Right. Click on this link. However, there are stories.

Yeah. 21, 21. It was a 17 year old. Now, this is a different story, but a 17 year old died. The locals are saying, yes, it was coronavirus. State officials are saying, no, no, no, wait, wait, wait. We don't know for sure. We don't know for sure. Well, who knows for sure? I don't know. But we have this one at least. So this is a 21 year old woman reportedly died of the coronavirus in UK and is believed to be the youngest person in the country with no underlying health conditions to succumb to the bug. The family of Buckinghamshire resident Chloe Middleton posted the grim news Tuesday on Facebook, according to local media. To all the people out there that thinks it's just a virus, please think again. Speaking from personal experience, this so-called virus has taken

the life of my 21-year-old daughter, said her mom, Diane Middleton. Chloe's aunt, Emily Mystery, also posted about the young girl's COVID-19-related death on Facebook and noted that her beautiful and kind-hearted niece had no underlying health issues. My loved ones are going through the most unimaginable pain. We are shattered beyond The post went on to say, life as we know it has changed dramatically, but unless we all act now to protect ourselves and others, the longer this turmoil and anguish will go on. The UK's youngest victim is an 18-year-old with significant underlying health issues who died in Coventry, West Midlands after contracting COVID-19, but the virus was not said to be his direct cause of death. So there's similar stories. They're calling them like COVID complications or complications related to COVID.

I think, okay, so that's the one we already have. Check this one out. New Jersey athlete, 25, who works at Bank of America is in an induced coma after doctors lost his coronavirus test results as his mom slams NBA players for being tested before her very sick son. Look, man, there's going to be a lot of, you know, progressive lefties saying the system is broken.

Rich people are getting tests. There was a viral tweet where someone said the easiest way to get tested for coronavirus is to cough in the face of a rich person and wait for their results to come back. Because it is. It's celebrities and athletes who are just snapping their fingers and getting tested when they want it. It's true. Now, I can understand the politicians. Right. That's a little bit different.

But Ryan Reynolds said it best. We all know the people who are going to get through this, the celebrities. Well, I love it. After ping pong players. Yeah. That was great. And 400 other humans. 400 other people. Yeah. I got to admit, it players. Yeah, that was great. And 400 other people.

Yeah, I got to admit, it is it is crazy to hear all these stories and not really be experiencing it. You know, it's like surreal. And that's why I think a lot of people defer to conspiracy theories. Yeah. So easily online, people are saying this can't be real. I don't know anybody who's affected by this. I haven't seen anybody. Exactly.

It's like, I don't know anybody who has the flu. Do you? No, but we've got to stop comparing it to the flu anyway. Right, right. But what I mean is, like, are you also going to say, I don't know anybody who has a cold right now? That doesn't matter. Right, right. That's what I'm saying.

So it looks like we're dealing with something really serious, and a lot of people have been downplaying it in a rather, I guess, unfortunate way. Yeah, cavalier. And, man, I can only go back to thinking, like, if we don't have these hospital beds, how much higher will the mortality rate get, and will young people be affected by it? Yeah, right. So one of the things they've been doing is putting people in induced comas. Actually, let's read, try and figure out maybe they'll maybe they'll say why they say a 25 year old New Jersey man is fighting for his life in an induced coma after doctors lost his coronavirus test

results that confirmed he had the deadly virus. OK, well, what do you mean they they lost it, but they know. OK, well, then we know. Let's move on. All right, then. OK. He has been in a ventilator in a medically induced coma for six days at a hospital move on. All right, then. Okay. He has been on a ventilator in a medically induced coma for six days at a hospital in Edison. Allard, who is an all-American lacrosse player and works at the Bank of America in Manhattan, first became sick on March 13th. He was suffering from a high fever. Back pain had been throwing up. Allard initially didn't present as a typical coronavirus patient, given his age, that he had no pre-existing conditions, and the fact he hadn't traveled overseas recently. His mother, Jenny Allard, told ABC News that the

lab that was processing his COVID-19 test results somehow lost the sample. She said it set back his treatment about five days. Oh, so that's what they're trying to say. So it was confirmed they didn't have it, so he couldn't get treated for it. Due to the delay in returning a positive test, he wasn't allowed access to potentially life-saving experimental drugs. Oh, yeah. Cuomo is saying

exactly what Trump said. Hydroxychloroquine, azithromycin, and other, you know, what are they called? Like, like, Xythromax or something? Azithromax?

Azithromax? Is that what it is? I don't know. I think the brand name is like Xythromax or something. Okay. But then you have some, like, governor,

I think it's Nevada, banning it. Don't even know what's going on. Yeah, he banned it. Banning the medicine itself? Yeah, he's saying you can't be treated for it. Probably because... Why?

You know what, man? Because some stupid person drank some fish cleaner? Probably. That is exactly why. Or whatever it is. Because the media claimed it was Trump's fault that someone drank fish anti-parasitic. Oh, man. People are so stupid.

Yeah, dude. So they say that his mother has since slammed health officials, giving NBA players, you know, access to tests, but not his, but his son's being bungled. She said, my son is healthy, no preexisting conditions. And he's 25. This virus is really dangerous. And now he is very, very sick. I want to say something. I want to imagine this crisis like a tsunami. Imagine you're standing in the middle of the street and a bunch of people start running and screaming past you. And you're standing there going like, what's going on?

Why is everyone running? And they say, there's a tsunami coming, run. And you go, I don't know about that. I can't see it from here. You guys run. Something's not right. None of my friends are running. Yeah.

And then 10 minutes later, you're standing there going like, see, no tsunami. Oh, man, there's the tsunami. And you're dead. This is a challenge. I understand why people are skeptical of all this. Because, you know, part of me in the back of my head, I'm like, can this really be happening? Like, optimism bias. I can't believe it.

You know what, man? I don't think all of these super wealthy global elites who are trying to form this big economic block in Europe would sacrifice decades of their vision for this. Like I agree. What Germany and Austria and France are doing shutting down their bores, essentially undermining the entirety of the European Union that they've been trying to put together for decades. I don't know if I believe they would want to do that. Right. Let alone all these companies like giving up billions upon billions of dollars, politicians. I just like Rand Paul is in on it.

Yeah. Sorry, dude. I don't buy it, man. Sorry. No, no, no. No, I don't believe it. You know, every time I see this someone's dying, I want to know more information. Are they smokers?

Right. Are they vegan? Dude, this guy's an athlete. I know that's a random sidebar, but have you seen Game Changers? I don't know if anyone has seen Game Changers, but it's specifically about what animal protein does to the blood and how it lessens the ability to have the body move oxygen through the body. It clouds the blood up so that oxygen doesn't

get around as easily so so if that's the case then i'd be curious why this hasn't happened earlier what what hasn't like a viral attack like this what do you mean it kind of Spanish flu well it was 100 years ago yeah nothing's changed in the way we eat right dude well i mean it you know i think it could have happened at any point. Yeah, okay. It doesn't matter when. It's a matter of, it did. Well, here's the thing. Listen, listen.

You bring up a really good point. I'm just curious. I want to know more information about everyone that's dying. Right. I want to know all of the information. I think you're bringing up a good point about general.

No underlying health issues. It's like, yeah, but what is considered an underlying health issue? Listen, this dude's an athlete. Yeah, I know. Exactly. He's an athlete.

I really doubt he smokes. Right. I'm not getting this vibe. If he lacrosses, you're running back and forth. You've got to have healthy lungs to run back and forth. So it's like it can't just be that. It's obviously he had healthy lungs. If he's a star, it said, right?

An all-star an all-star lacrosse player like those people run non-stop lacrosse is a heavy running sport all-american lacrosse player yeah i don't know that means i know lacrosse is a legit you know taxing sport yeah it's for sure it's a hard sport i think you're bringing up a good point about general scientific research on diets and illnesses for sure. Yeah, I agree. That's what I'm trying to say, yeah. But that's like a longer conversation about collecting the data and then down the road looking at stuff. Yeah.

This, to me, sounds like it's worse than the Spanish flu. Well, I don't know much about the Spanish flu. The Spanish flu was a novel virus with a mortality rate of 2.5%. Isn't that right where we're at? Globally. We're higher now. Well, so in the U that right where we're at? We're higher now. Well, so in the U.S., we're below, I believe, one. Like 1.8, I think, was the last number.

But globally, though, where are we at? Globally, it's 3.4. So actually, look. No, no. We're, what are we at? We have 59,986 total cases and 823 deaths. I don't necessarily think it makes sense to calculate current infected to current dead because you'd think the closed cases do you recover or do you die yeah in that case

italy is scary it's like 40 percent yeah so if you look at closed cases you got a 16 percent mortality rate for closed cases yeah and and the fact that fact that you can get it again, right? Even if you recover, you can get it again. So it's now been reported another time. Right. So it was initially reported in Japan that there was reinfection. Right. And then it was reported again, China may be seeing a potential reinfection. Yeah.

So the other issue is mutation. So one story that's been going around is that it's not mutating fast enough so that one vaccine may just deal with it. I hope so. Yeah, me too. But then I read another article that's saying there's more than 20 different mutations that someone's found and two different ones in the same in the same body. Yeah. So this is what's this is what's crazy. Look at this.

What a week ago we were at what like a few thousand people infected. This is what exponential growth looks like i think i think new york is in is is in serious serious trouble yeah and you know that there's man the census is right now the 2020 census is now people are fleeing the city this is going to dramatically change the face of our economy our politics i've seen really sad posts of like businesses going under family businesses that were like around for 40 years saying like this is it yeah we're out of money we can't do it no business we can't pay anybody we're laying off we're shutting down rent is due in six days yeah here we go things are going to get crazy yeah what's going gonna happen man i'll tell you what's

gonna happen the authoritarian lockdown is coming yeah the government is gonna step in and they're gonna take over and they're gonna say you know it's gonna here's gonna happen you will beg the government to step in that's what'll happen that's already where we're at. Right. Lots of people are at. That's actually the next segment. Oh, Americans want a national lockdown from today. A few hours ago, Trump's call to end coronavirus restrictions by Easter is wildly out of step with what the public wants. I don't know if I want to lock down everything under some emergency provisions, because when do they get lifted? Yeah, I'll tell you what, man. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, I don't know. If listen. under some emergency provisions because when do they get lifted? Yeah. But I'll tell you what, man. Yeah, exactly.

Yeah, I don't know. If, listen. But that's what I, that's why I brought up the fact that you can get reinfected by it. It's like if. Well, well, well, it's been reported a couple times. Excuse me. You gotta be careful. If, if, if it's a possibility.

If that is the case, how do we get rid of this? Never. Before we get the vaccine. I don't know. We can't if that's the case. So having a lockdown is like the only option. I'm not saying I want to be locked in. That's why I'm saying that people will beg for it.

Yeah, I think so. When you see these hospitals overrun and the crazy thing is like, you know what, man, if you don't care about anyone else, you don't care about other people. Okay, that's fine. Worry about yourself getting sick. Yeah. You don't want to get this. I don't want this. Yeah. But here's what I think is going to happen. I don't, I don't, well, first of all, I don't know

what's going to happen come April 1st when rent is due because apparently they're not even getting this emergency package passed through so that people have no money. They were going to do four months guaranteed fast. But if this gets to the point where Manhattan is a ghost town, Manhattan, densest city, biggest city in the country is a ghost town. At what point do people become desperate and start searching for resources and food? And at what point do the locals say, save me, Trump? That's a nice way of putting it. Right.

Searching for resources. Uh-huh. Quote, unquote. Quote, unquote. Searching. I don't like that. What happens when, you know, the first person comes knock on your door saying, please, can you help me with family?

And you say, I can't. And then in the middle of the night, they come back and say, I'm not asking this time. Yeah. I don't know. I don't, you know, I don't want to be a doomsayer. I don't want to be, you know, overreacting. But April 1st is a coming. And we're being stalled on this emergency package.

So the next thing that happens is the emergency, the emergency lockdown. So here's what I want to do. We're going to jump over to Super Chats. Take some of the comment audience questions and stuff. We'll try and go fairly quick. So if we don't get to you guys, I'm sorry. But we've got a bunch of stories about people being charged with terrorism for coughing. Yeah.

Weird, right? Also licking stuff. Yeah, that too. Man, I know. So that guy who licked the deodorant in Walmart? Arrested for terrorism. Terroristic threats. Oh, terroristic threats.

Another guy coughed near an old woman and started joking he had COVID. Terroristic charge. He got charged with terroristic threats. Wow. That seems much in an emergency don't be surprised when they suspend your rights and and what are you going to do about it what can you do and you know what public opinion is against you that's true you can

say i'm sorry it was a joke no one's going to care yeah they're going to say don't care yeah no sympathy for me it's not funny at all let's grab these super chats well on a lighter note if you've noticed my shirt oh yeah i'm wearing the wonderful beanie shirt that is available right now. You can you can look down and there's a merch Link right below the video someone was asking where you can get it and that's where you can get it. So you can there you go That's right. You can get a shirt with a beanie. I'm wearing his beanie on me on my shirt I don't know why I designed that shirt. I really don't. I think it's wonderful. I love it. I want one too. It is wonderful.

It's because people were like, we want to buy the same beanie and I was like, I have no idea how to make beanies. So I just took a picture and I vectorized it and just put it on a shirt.

I could totally see that this is your beanie too. I can see it. There you go. Isn't it great? It's great. Sorry, super chat. Let's grab these super chats.

Let's try and grab as many as we can. Jim St. Armor. My wife is now a fan of the show. Tim, she has a big Trekkie like you. She wants to know who your favorite Star Trek character is and why. Oh, that's a good question. I want to know this.

I mean. Favorite character. It's probably Picard. Really? Picard. But it's a cliche. But come on he was

he was very stoic he was a great leader he was he was stern strong sometimes he would lose his patience true

he was a good captain though and he also had a little bit he would slip some humor in there sometimes yeah but I really love the interactions between him and Data

particularly in when he what was it called the making of a man or something. Like Data's episode, basically. Where they're trying to determine whether or not he's entitled to his own life rights.

Ah, right. Man, that show was fantastic. But also, It was a good show. As we're moving into this subject matter about what a terrorism charge is in the U.S.,

there was this really great sequence where Data asks Picard about terrorism. And he says, if it is, you know, basically if it's so frowned upon, you know, or it's successful, it works. And Picard is like,

these are tough questions humanity has struggled with for, you know, millennia. Yeah. It's true. The people who are crazy, screeching, violent monsters get what they want. It's true. Yeah, yeah. Anyway, very much a big fan. Sadly true. The Real Chatelak, thanks for becoming a member. Thank you. Maddie Bone says,

Miss Lydia, as a nurse, what are your thoughts and opinions on a DNR for these patients? And as always, sup Tim and soy Jesus. Okay. Yeah, first and foremost, I'm not a nurse. I'm a nurse. I was a nurse aide slash technician. DNRs are not something that's assigned by a doctor. They're only chosen by the patients and their families.

So this is very weird. Yeah, this is not. So my take on that is actually even more unsettled i think than tim and adam because i've seen dnrs put into place and acted out and changed uh and they are no joke i would hate to see that for like a 20 year old kid you've seen people who have chosen to receive no aid and then you watch them die yep i used to watch them die on screen because i was in telemetry where we're watching people's hearts beat and then not beat and yeah like agon beats and stuff yeah but those people were really really old like the reason they were dnrs was because it was their time and so what if it's uh wow 35 year old dad a couple kids and the doctors come to you and say we're not doing to do

anything about it those ones are really hard to watch uh no i'm saying when the when the family's begging no i've never seen that i've never seen i mean that's what they're saying right they don't care what the family says they're not going to do it the only time i've seen young people dnrs is their own choice as it should be and it makes young people yeah oh yeah people have like terminal kidney illness right all right okay that makes sense or whatever but yeah no doctors don't usually get to do that you call it weird though is that the that is the technical term weird yes no i mean to me it's shocking it's unheard of yeah yeah they don't do it that way but apparently they do now so that's i'm not happy with someone deciding somebody mentioned it is triage it's like it's like combat triage yeah which is there

are no more easy decisions yep yeah and if we run out of if we run out of beds we're running out of supplies and we don't have enough staff and that's because the economy is yeah it's frozen mess yeah so we need to get stuff done you can't do it yeah yeah don't get me talking all right all right let's grab some more super chats but i will also say if you are watching and you want to help out the show click the like button because i can only i can only assume that helps i'm gonna like it right now but i'm gonna like it too i just liked it king canuck says hello beanie brigade darn it darn it i wasn't first let leaf land is still locking down to know your topics today so i have

nothing much to say have a great stream appreciate it thanks kyle buchanan says some good news on the c virus folding at home has 10 times the people. Folding is Stanford's program helping cure diseases. That's true. For those that are familiar, if you want to help out, there's a program called Folding at Home that uses your home computer's power to help cure diseases. That's cool.

So I don't know too much about it, but a lot of people are bored, so they're pitching in, and this is pretty cool stuff. The Unknown Millennial says, Coining this one. Hello, Melidia. Tips for Dora. There you go. Justin says,

At the end of this, let's make the top trending hashtag be hashtag China lied people died. It actually was on Twitter. Yeah, I saw that for a while. Yeah, super cool. Jack the Ripper says, Hey, guys, I invested $2,000 in a subverse. What's the latest with that now that you're doing two channels and IRL? Love the show, by the way. So subverse is... Totally separate, right? Well,000 in a subverse. What's the latest with that now that you're doing two channels and IRL?

Love the show, by the way. So subverse is... Totally separate, right? Well, it's separate from us. For those that aren't familiar, check out Subverse News. It is straight news. It is editorially independent from me on purpose. I am a commentary and news person.

They do actual on-the-ground reporting. So they're going through... There's some really, really cool stuff. I can't talk about it too much. But they run their ship. And I act essentially as like an ombudsman so if i see them stepping out of line or whatever they don't because i know them they're friends then i'll come and be like yo guys like this is unethical or something so the general idea is i do my thing subverse does their thing but if subverse starts crossing the line with this bs these other outlets do yeah then I come in and I karate chat people. So, yeah, that's the goal.

But there's some developments, too. We'll see what happens. I might end up doing documentary VO stuff. I don't know. They run their shit. They do their thing. DC Pagan says, when will you be selling real beanies? It has to be from Tim to be special.

Dude. I've been looking. People keep sending me different links to get beanies it has to be from tim to be special dude i've been looking people keep sending me different like links to get beanies from but they're like not they're like thin workout beanies or like a like big long plastic acrylic beanies that aren't comfortable like where do the skateboard companies get their beanies made? We need to get that kind of a beanie. This is made by... I want to find that beanie. And it's so hard to find. It's such a nice beanie.

I can't find it. These are... The ones I wear are from DC Shoes. Yeah. And I have a bunch of them. And not only that... They're for skateboarding. I have found something similar, actually.

But they're, like, crazy patterns. I can't wholesale, like, you you know like a regular one that we can then put like Tim cast on yeah like have your little face on it which would be funny but maybe I don't know who knows I'm looking up call up trust me I'm looking I'm really trying to source beanies and I just call the company anybody work for DC or something yeah or know somebody we gotta find DC DC Shuko USA yeah right ask them like ask them, maybe they make them themselves. Because they're for skateboarding.

They're thin and stretchy and soft. You know what the crazy thing about skateboarders is? It's the weirdest thing. Go to the Lower East Side Skate Park in Manhattan in the dead of summer, 95 degrees, and you'll see a dude wearing a sweater and a beanie. That's true.

And I'm just like, man, I don't go that far. With shorts, though. No, no, no, no, no. There's this one dude. He rips the park. He's amazing. And he's wearing long pants, a button-up shirt with a sweater over it,

and a beanie in the heat of summer, and he is drenched. And I'm like, maybe it's like hot yoga. Maybe he's sweated out, man. Oh, that makes sense. That does make sense. That's true. But, you know, skateboarders, it out, man. Oh, that makes sense. That does make sense. That's true. But, you know, skateboarders, we suffer for fashion. Yeah, I guess so.

Let's read some more Super Chats. The Real Chat-O-Lac says, Wastewater operators are an older, retiring workforce. If that field succumbs to coronavirus, collection systems could back into houses. S hits the fan, and quite literally. Oof. Al Santiago says, Just watched Containment on Netflix. could back into houses yep s hits the fan and quite literally yes al santiago says just watched containment on netflix it's almost like watching what's going on at the moment we should go watch that afterwards let's do it i don't know i watched i want to watch 12 monkeys because

someone said that we're we're in the uh the past of 12 monkeys and i was like oh don't like it listen man you gotta re rewatch that movie. Stories about doctors deciding to let people die. About people being charged with terrorism for making jokes and coughing near people. Yeah. It's like, wow, man. That's where we are. We are headed for dark times.

Brandon says, Tim, have you read anything about the Wu Mao? Essentially, they're the social media army for the Chinese Communist Party. I haven't. Oh, wow. I have not. Nicholas Price says, keep up the great army for the Chinese Communist Party. I haven't. Oh, wow. I have not. No. Nicholas Price says, keep up the great work on the issue of China. You should check out Peter Zaihan. China can only operate the way it does because of the U.S. Navy guaranteeing secure trade. We have leverage for now. Interesting.

Podcastage says, what are your thoughts on people deciding to not pay rent when the moratorium on evictions is lifted? Won't that rent still be due? I don't know. I don't know either. This is one of the big. I don't know. Listen, man, this is what's really weird to me. There are a lot of people who are saying the Republicans and the Democrats in the Senate didn't go far enough on this bill.

OK. And I'm like, dude, they compromise and came together. I'm seeing people say like, so what? You put a moratorium on evictions and people just stop paying rent. And I'm like, right. And then you get evicted once this ends. But but no one knows what to do. Right. It's unprecedented. Yeah, exactly. We're in we're in uncharted waters right now. Man, I can only imagine this was really bad. Like it's so much worse than they ever said. There's videos china those are scary videos we can't show them but i i was watching it with them earlier it's yeah i because they're because they're not necessarily

confirmed yeah but we're watching videos of something and it's not a movie yeah and it is and they've been circulating for a while but we've seen it from other countries too yeah there was a body floating in a river and and people are just like walking by, like just walking by with their masks on, like not looking at it, just walking, walking by. And when when China locked down the country, these whistleblowers vanished, like all of a sudden it stopped. I don't believe him for a second. No way. I think this is normal. Yeah.

What if this really does have this high mortality rate can reinfect people? Yeah, exactly. Then we're in serious trouble that's what scares me a lot it's like it's not just a wave that's passing through the population it's rippling it's rippling back and forth it's like hitting the wall and then bouncing back and then

forth and back and it's like well if that's the case everyone's gonna get it and then if it's like if the mortality rate's 20 50 you know 3 percent over and over and over again is it adds up i figured it out okay i am no longer worried at all oh yeah oh yeah i'll just i'll just peace out i'm gone disappear you'll never hear from me again all right go up to the woods get a dog just chill out be completely self-reliant adam cast irl coming soon and then

i will never there you go see and then I will never, there you go. See, and then I will never contract. Yeah. So one of the things that a lot of people are scared about is that if that's true, then the only solution is a VAT is vaccination, which means we have to get the,

which means everyone has to get it. Everybody. And so what happens to all the anti-vax people? I think they're going to change their tune. I don't, I don't, you don't you don't think so when the government says we've rushed through a vaccine in a in a 10 of the time as

normal let us inject you the chemical dude the anti-vax people are going to be 10 times as fervent when there's a pandemic man ripping humanity apart because that's literally what's happening yes absolutely dude people have no no it's not even that have i met people you're right have you seen what they've said about government mandated medication oh man i'll tell you what man i have i have i have seen it we don't need to i've had a doctor give me several shots i've been to much foreign countries i've been inoculated i am very much i get your vaccines yeah they're not perfect there's potential injuries and stuff the autism stuff is is widely over overhyped for you know but the issue is i'm very much so like listen i got no problem getting

a vaccine i've got several if they want to come out and do it i get it but i gotta admit even i'm skittish when they say we are rushing in production normally it takes four years we'll get it done fast trust us i'm like just get in the back of the line. Right. I'll be in line. But I'll be in the way back. And I'll be looking, seeing what's happening up there. And not getting coughed on. I am...

I think the real argument when it comes to vaccine stuff is government mandated medication. Mandated. Right. That's the key word there. Here's the thing, man. When they say stuff like if you don't get a vaccine, you can't come to school, I'm kind of like, alright. I don't want to go anyway. Yeah. You know, if

that's fine by me. It's your building. With our next subject, it kind of goes in line with it. People want a lockdown. I think the majority want a vaccine. They'll be like, okay. And they would line up and say, thank you, sir. Please. Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you. Alright. now i don't have to worry anymore that it's that that's the mentality that creates the borg that's true so i'm not i'm not you know i'm not a big conspiracy

person like i i don't think there's a big network of evil people who are like twirling their mustache like this virus is working as planned yeah of course no yeah you know so a lot of so i I agree. You know, so a lot of people, so I probably would be like, eh, you know, I'm not going to rush full speed to get a vaccine, but I'll be there. I'll go check it out. But it does concern me when,

like, I'm supposed to trust these people. I don't know them. Humans are fallible. You know, who knows what they're going to do? They can make mistakes. I understand, you know, desperate times, desperate measures, but let's read some more

of these super chats. Yeah, keep getting sidetracked. Mike Depew says, the Lydia of Whiterun name on Twitter. Oh, it's porn. Cliff says, in Australia, kids have it. Yep. Justin says, is it possible to oxygenate someone's blood without passing it through their

lungs? Is it? Is it? I feel like you might know that more. I'm not sure. That's never something that we did on my unit. We weren't an intensive care unit. Usually the lungs do the trick. I think there is a way to do it. But I don't think it's something that like every hospital is going to have a ton of to deal with.

I would think that would be highly specialized. Yeah, because it's not like you can just put oxygen bubbles into the blood. That kills you, right? Right. If oxygen gets to your heart. Yeah, if you get a bubble of blood, yeah, your heart can't pump. It would need to be oxygenated blood specifically.

Right, it would be very bad. Well, it would be, so I think they have machines. I don't know, someone in the chat. Like a dialysis machine that's specialized to add oxygen or something? So dialysis for the lungs? Right. No, I've never heard of that.

I don't know, maybe. Interesting. I mean, it doesn't exist. There was some story I saw from a while ago about something they could inject you with. The comments are going crazy that they say yes. I don't know what it is, but it seems like there's a lot of people that know about it. I will have to look it up while we go through the rest of these. Do it.

I'll read some more. Yeah, let's go for it. Pineapple in Space says, It's super easy to get a new car right now. Can't wait till it's easier to get a house in a few months. Pretty dark reasons, though. By the way way cost of alcohols are going up soon the incentives for making antiseptics might flatten yikes yeah the booze stores are closing in pennsylvania oh really yeah i think right that's what happened it was pa yeah they shut down pa i think all the government run ones that's nuts man yeah take a well that yeah that's weird though state run yeah i was like wait what

is that a thing it is in sweden huh interesting dark rangy says hey love your work you guys live together right i would say technically yes we are roommates technically yes it is a is a large house a lot of space and we have a studio in the basement um but there is you know i was actually gonna uh i was actually working on buying a building for the studio and this was the last resort so we kind of ended up having to be like okay we're moving back into this one house and thank goodness because I wouldn't want to be traveling around

we wouldn't be able to do the show if that wasn't the case that's crazy so I was looking at a building for multi-purpose stuff we were gonna do like we had extra space where we could have a skate shop and a hangout spot and then do a ton of production and and shows and it was actually cheaper than my house and it fell through and if i ended up getting that

we wouldn't be doing the show yeah right so there's actually a bunch of other people who are who used to do shows who have canceled all their live streams because because of that reason because their professionals can't come in, the camera people can't come in. So our temporary plan B studio build ended up working out. I know, and our camera crew is just some tripods. Yeah, literally. It's just three cameras and tripods.

We don't pay them at all. They do such a good job. Yes. Nice job, camera crew. And the best part is they're not actually autonomous in any way, so they can't rise up against us in outrage. They can't form unions. They can't form unions yet.

Yet. I don't know. Jen McMahon says, did you watch the Joe Scott video on the coronavirus? I did not. I'm not sure. No, I don't know. Corasonic says, the saying goes, everyone got a D sometimes, and the media deserves all the cake for this and China too.

Blob says, do you have an address to send a check? I'm not giving Google any more money. I do on my website over at timcast.com. Cord says, in my region, we are around 70,000 people. We have 13 ICU beds in my town, around 20,000. And we don't even have a hospital. Two hours drive to the closest hospital. Oh, man.

That's where it gets freaky. Yeah. Stay away from people. Emo to drum says most of my friends praise socialism as soon as Trump offers aid. Seems like peeps aren't cool with twelve hundred dollar checks. Yang only offered a thousand. So confusing. Yes. It's so confusing that everyone was cheering for Trump's thousand dollar check. And now that they're that they've negotiated twelve hundred, they're all saying it's not good enough. Yeah what's narratives man yeah dude thomas hayden says the virus has shown people's true colors it has absolutely stripped everything away grace fang says you hear about the chinese cell networks missing millions of people freaky yep you hear about this no i haven't actually so here let me let me tell y'all a, good. Some tweets started emerging showing cell phone accounts in China.

Yeah. In the past month, dropping by like 8 million or something, right? Oh, I didn't hear about this. Well, hold on. Yeah. Easily explained. You're locked in your apartment for a month. You're not working.

You don't pay your bill. They terminate your service, right? But the landlines. The landlines. Almost a million. Terminated. Yeah. Yeah. Interesting. I'm sure they're completely telling the truth. bill they terminate your service right but the landlines the landlines almost a million terminated yeah yeah interesting i'm sure they're completely telling the truth that doesn't make sense no it doesn't landlines well it could be businesses true businesses shutting down okay

i mean listen listen listen i don't know how it works in china but here if you miss one cell phone payment they don't terminate your cell phone plan. No, they send you a letter saying you missed your payment. And then you miss your second payment and they say you missed your second payment. And now we're going to shut off your service in two weeks. Yeah, you got like two extra months. Right. So unless this started a long time before they said it did or they're just terminating people for different reasons.

Yeah. So I mean, it could be prepaid over there. Yeah. You know, and so people didn't preload. And then a month later, they didn't use their phones. Maybe. But even if you're at home, you need a phone. I don't know, man.

It is freaky. Yes, it is. I do not trust that country. Nope. Sparky says hospitals have teams who talk patients and loved ones into not accepting treatment for anyone old enough to be on Medicare during the last few years. Is that true? Never heard that before.

I did not know about that. Jonathan, thanks for the super chat. Martin says, think you might be wrong about Pelosi blocking today. Senate hadn't passed the bill. Nothing to vote on. Once the bill is voted on in the Senate, we'll see. I loathe Pelosi, but she didn't block today. No, they didn't discuss or vote on anything. they didn't block it they just left so it's yeah

right so uh that's why i was saying it's like it's obstructing right they you know i don't know right it is confusing but that's why i didn't believe it beast on the run says one of the more popular tourist attractions in ho chi minh city is the uh cochie Tunnel used by the VC as a supply line. In short, the U.S. Yes, I get it. Chuck Morris says sounds like time for a camping trip. Yep. Mike says I'm a generator technician. Techs like myself are out there keeping generators working in case power start to go down. Essential workers that no one knows about. Softlight says, don't wear the flimsy paper masks. They will not protect you. Make your own from t-shirts layered if you have to.

Better than nothing. Would that work though? I don't know. It would be a little bit better than paper. Not as good as a sealed mask. Yeah. And I see all these like random things. People are sharing like a paper bag over their head.

That's not going to help. A plastic bag over their head. I've seen plastic bags. People wearing garbage bags. Plastic bags. Yeah. over their head. That's not going to help. A plastic bag over their head. I've seen plastic bags. People wearing garbage bags. Plastic bags. Yeah, over their head. That is a great plan. How do you breathe?

Or like a plastic bottle cut in half and just rubber band to their face. It looks ridiculous. All right, I am going to start moving faster because we are getting inundated with super chats, so I apologize if we miss you. Well, hey, thanks, everyone, though. Data Exploit says,

People here in Canada don't seem to get it. I'm working in retail, and I just heard today that the district manager and regional manager want to visit stores to thank the staff for staying at work. That's not an essential service. John McCloud says, I have a thought. Vaping is a big thing with young people. I wonder if the effects of vaping makes COVID-19 worse.

What are your thoughts, guys? Did you get to read the article I emailed you? That's a good question. Not sure, but that makes so much sense. It's a lung issue. But a bunch of us, that Chinese minister guy was trying to argue that the vaping epidemic where all these young people were getting these lung, you know, it was similar.

It was like fluids filling up in their lungs. They couldn't breathe. Right. He said, ah, that proves it. And everyone's like, oh, please, you know, stop trying to blame us. Well, they were also getting like really cheap crap. I used to. It was vitamin E acetate, I think. Yeah.

It helped me stop smoking cigarettes. And then I eventually quit vaping also. But I remember I would always get like really nice products and really nice stuff and sometimes i'd be in a spot that i couldn't there was no vape shop and i'd go to the deli and there was like some really cheap looking stuff and i tried it and it was disgusting and my lungs hurt and i was like threw that away and it's like stuff the kids were getting was like bootleg right yeah bootleg yeah exactly it's like that's not what is approved by the fda you know it's like you got to get the good stuff if you're going to do it you know not

just get whatever you can get and then end up with fluid in your lungs so i i think it's a high potential that yeah they would definitely make it worse make it worse yeah or make you more susceptible to the covet 19 so all right there we. We got a big jump in super chats. Let me try and figure out where we were. Because there is many, many members. Thanks for everybody for joining. Let's see. Where are we at?

There are too many. There it is. Where is it? No, I was wrong. There we go. I think. Nope. Oh, my God.

Here we go. Okay. Student of History says the bill is supposed to be an emergency snapshot to buy more time when the Democrats decided to just ignore the issue and walk in and walk out, making this worse by the day, making death more likely. That's their wish list. Yeah. No, they want carbon emissions.

They want diversity quotas, student debt forgiveness. Yeah. Yeah. Tax credits for getting solar panels on your house. And now people are worried that they're going to get the bill from the Senate and they're going to be like, okay, change this. And it's going to getting solar panels on your house. And now people are worried that they're going to get the bill from the Senate and they're going to be like, OK, change this. And it's going to go back and be another week. Not the time. Amazing. Not the time. Sherrilee says my husband, my husband works for AEP, a power plant. They've already locked down

some of the plants, so there will be no workers on site getting the virus. They plan further ahead than our government. Same goes for nuclear plants. Interesting. Joseph Metzler, what are you seeing with the COVID-19? What you are seeing with the COVID-19 fallout is the collective failures coming home. Everyone is using it as a screen to cover up long-term failures. Would love to explain it from a hazmat worker. Interesting. Yeah. Mark says, COVID-19 invades your cells, forces them to replicate. The virus then orders the cell to self-destruct, releasing even more. Then it infects your immune system, making do scorching earth tactics. Wow. Sounds like a virus.

Scary, yeah. Student of History says exponential growth is 100K in about 70 days, 200K in about 40 days, 300K in six days after that. Scott McLean says gray glue seems to be what's killing people. It would make more sense to create a compound that breaks it down that isn't toxic and can be drained easier, better than a vaccine. Other options needed. Swampy says, unfortunately, there's a lot of info out there with factual backing that points towards governments going for power grabs and NWO plandemic, forcing people to beg the government for help and give up liberty for it. For it. Stay safe. But yeah, but Trump being in on it,

he resisted this. He downplayed it a bit and then he stepped forward. Yes, people in government are exploiting this. I don't think it was on purpose. I don't think they like this is planned. I think they were like, hey, wait a minute. We got a crisis. Here's our chance. Never let a good crisis go to waste. What can we snatch? Yep. Justin, thanks for coming to member. The unknown millennial says right now you're talking about searching for resources. Tom McDonald did an awesome song called Coronavirus that talks about this. Shout out, Tom, you rock. Yes. Searching lost cold soul, super guy and devil eyes. Thanks for coming members. Thank you. Bill Vong says, Legally speaking, DNR, DNI is a medical order, and it's technically

not up to families, but good luck finding anyone who would do that. In Colorado, they kind of wing it. They let the families change it at the last minute. I know not every state might be like, I don't think it's right. Barbican, thanks for becoming a member. Christian says, I don't know her name, but your producer colleague has a very pleasing voice. Her name is Lydia.

Almost as good as yours, Tim. Almost. Almost. Benjamin, thanks for joining. Overdress says, Picard is well-written, was put in extremely interesting situations, and played by a great actor. He feels realer to me than most of the NPCs I encountered long ago. When we still roam

the streets, I miss them. OmniPlex says, Senators expect to begin voting within an hour or so on the massive two trillion dollar stimulus bill just minutes ago. Senate offices got the final text at 883 pages long. Earlier drafts had circulated today. I believe it when I see it. Wow. Zachary, thanks for joining. Thank you. J Max says, do you ever watch Daily Wire Sunday special with Shapiro? He had Ezra Klein on two weeks ago, and it was weird to see Ezra's mental gymnastics. Props to him going on, though. Yeah, Ezra is famous. So, excuse me, he's the founder of Vox.com. Oh, okay. And people have, there's like a job you can do where whenever

something in the news happens, Ezra's opinion inverts. It's like someone did a huge thread on how he, oh, Ruth Bader Ginsburg was the example. When something happened, he said, we absolutely must, I can't remember, it was Trump appointing somebody and he's like, we absolutely must have limits on how long someone can serve in the Supreme Court. This is ridiculous. And then he's like, and here's my simple explanation as to why. And then he writes this big draft explaining what was really supposed to happen. It's an explainer. And then Ruth Bader Ginsburg got sick. Lifetime appointments are necessary and very important. And then he writes this big long thing. It's like, we get it, dude. You don't really have any principles. Yeah. Bellador says, check out Carhartt. Their beanies look really similar, plus are pretty durable and

relatively inexpensive. But where do they get them from who's the manufacturer right that's what we factory yeah i don't want to get their beanies at their market price i want to get our beanies yeah for us with our stuff on it bill vong says yes it's called ecmo extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and it's a major measure of last resort needs to be surgically placed and not a long-term solution. Well, there you go. That's how you get the oxygen in the blood. Right. Zachary, considering the mass DNR is the realm of possibility, why don't we try to train the population in basic triage and life-saving medical techniques? Basically, can we medically deputize people?

You know, that would be part of education, and the whole education system of America is a whole different conversation. Dutter trash. But I do, I like that. Like, why wouldn't we be taught, like, general stuff like that? As human beings, we should know how to fix some of this, you know? Yeah, I agree. Yeah. Psychea Dargan says, beanie for Lydia.

Absolutely. And where were we just now? There we go. The Grizzly says, Tim, be careful. The Democrats may have just pushed us into impossible civil war within the government. The Democrats in their death spiral are taking us down with their sinking ship. This will backfire. I completely agree.

It does feel like that. Cassius and Yoke, thanks for coming members. Thank you. Lawrence Customs, thanks for the super chat. But let's jump over now to the next story. Yeah. From Vox, Americans want a national lockdown to quote um oh wait wait wait padme what is queen padme no no senator padme padme padme what about star wars yeah what about this is how democracy dies with thunderous applause

democracy dies yep is that the quote? Tendrous applause. You got to never let a crisis go to waste. Here's the story. On Tuesday, President Trump signaled that he wants the extraordinary efforts the nation has taken to arrest the spread of the coronavirus to halt by Easter, April 12th. If that happens, the likely result will be more infections, an overloaded health care system, and more deaths. New polling also suggests that Trump's desire to end this period of quarantines and sheltering in place is out of step with the public's wishes. In a poll by Morning Consult taken March 20th to the 22nd, a plurality of Americans said they strongly support a national quarantine, and nearly three quarters of Americans express at least some

support for the idea. So keep in mind, plurality doesn't mean majority, right? It means of the various brackets. It's the biggest Americans widely support national quarantine to contain COVID-19. They were asked, would you support or oppose a national quarantine in which only essential travel, such as trips to the grocery store and pharmacy are permitted to control the spread of the coronavirus. And we can see that among registered voters, 40% strongly support, 34% somewhat support. I mean, I'll be honest, that is a very, very strong plurality. That is, essentially, you could argue, the majority would support, to a certain degree, a national lockdown.

I mean, look,'s the next one is strongly or somewhat support right 34 so that's 74 would would strongly support it or like they support it basically that's that's a lot you you you realize you give the government this power they never give it back oh yeah you've given it up forever yep yeah we've been under emergence a national emergency like what like multiple emergencies They don't care. It'll never stop. Yeah. Many Americans are already engaging in some form of social distancing, meaning they are either voluntarily keeping their distance from other people or are subject to a government order requiring, requiring them to do so. A quarantine would be an especially strict form of such distancing. Ordinarily someone subject to a

quarantine will remain in their home or in designated areas with no exceptions. Although as the morning consult polling question acknowledges, some exceptions to a nationwide quarantine order would need to be made to allow people to obtain food and medicine. It's also worth noting that Trump almost certainly does not have the formal authority to declare a national lockdown under existing federal law. And it is doubtful that Congress has the constitutional power to order people to remain in their homes, though Congress most likely could order businesses to shutter temporarily. If a nationwide lockdown were to happen, it would likely be because 50 individual state governments all independently reached the conclusion that such a lockdown was necessary. Now, look, in New Jersey, they already arrested a couple of guys for having a party.

Yeah. So there's no law on the books allowing them to do this. And what did they get arrested for? Public nuisance or something like that. They had a couple dozen. I don't know the full story. They had a couple dozen people over. But, man, I'll tell you what. We are at a point in our country where they can arrest you for anything.

There are so many laws in the books. They can just be like, oh, I saw you just dropped a piece of paper. Littering. Lock them up, boys. Jaywalking. Oh, you're wearing blue jeans on Sunday at 7 p.m. Take them away. Oh, no.

Oh, no. They can argue that if you yell in public, disorderly conduct. Oh, my goodness. For real. They can just say it. They can just say it. So they decree in New Jersey, you can't go out after 8 p.m., no gatherings. Decree. That's not how the country works, right? Yeah.

So a couple of guys had a party. The cops showed up and said, well, call it a public nuisance. People were complaining. They got arrested. How does it make sense the government can just apply a different law to something else and just make it up? That's where we're headed, man. I mean, it feels like I've heard stories of cops doing that. Well, of course. It's always been there. For a long time. Right. So now it's just getting bigger on a bigger scale.

No, now people are clapping and cheering for it. Yeah, you're right. Yeah, now people want it. Vox says the federal public health laws governing quarantines, for example, generally only allow the federal government to act when someone tries to enter the country from abroad or when they attempt to cross state borders. While when someone tries to enter the country from abroad or when they attempt to cross state borders. While there are some parts of the country where formal, formal shelter in place orders have shut down non-essential businesses and even turned going

over to a friend's house into a misdemeanor. These orders come from state or local governments. It is likely that the constitution permits Congress to enact a law preempting such an order from the state or local government. But Congress does not work for the president. What does that have to do with anything? What does that have to do with Trump? I don't know. If Congress wanted a national lockdown, they voted for it, right? Fine. If Trump wanted the federal legislation forcing businesses to reopen, he would need to get the House of Representatives with its Democratic majority to sign off on such legislation. And even if he did manage to get such a law through Congress,

it is not entirely clear that the current Supreme Court would uphold it. There are already signs of a partisan divide on the question of whether extraordinary measures are necessary to prevent the spread of coronavirus, a gap that is apparent in the morning consult poll. Similarly, a recent Gallup poll found 78% of Democrats are avoiding small gatherings while only 56% of Republicans are doing so. I got to stop right there. Republicans tend to live

in rural areas. Yeah. So they're very, very spread out. Yeah, exactly. And so if you live in New York City, of course, you're like, I'm not going out. If your neighbor's on a farm

and you're like, we're 50 miles from the nearest city, I don't think you got much to worry about. Right. And we grow all our own food. And the only person I've shared my food with is my neighbor, John, who grows all his own food. And I mean, not all Republicans live out on a farm growing their own food. True, true, true. But I think it's fair to say that like they polled Democrats and Republicans and said Republicans aren't concerned about their family catching coronavirus, showing that they're downplaying the severity. No, because they live far away from everybody.

They don't live in big cities. Yeah. Dude, if you were like, if you asked me, your buddy lives on a farm, you know, 60 miles outside of the city. Are you concerned about him catching coronavirus? I'd be like, not at all. Yeah. You're downplaying it. Everyone can get it.

No, I just don't live. He doesn't live in a city. What am I worried about? Yeah. Well, that brings me to where we're at so far. We have a bunch of people who have been arrested. Man faces terror charges after coughing on grocery store worker. What else do we have?

We have Missouri Walmart coronavirus liquor charged with terroristic threats. Yeah, this dude. And then we have. Okay, so this is the same guy. Same guy. Okay. Yeah. Look at his face.

He's almost like, I can't believe I got arrested for this. Yeah, he's almost laughing. It looks like he's holding back a smile almost. There is another guy, because I had the story earlier, so I think I maybe pulled up the wrong article, but it's terrorism. Allegedly coughing in the direction of a local supermarket Supermarket employee Claiming he suffered from the coronavirus So allegedly coughing

He's just joking Allegedly coughing Allegedly coughing is because he's innocent until proven guilty Okay there you go So there was a couple stories that are very similar And we also had these stories the other day Where they were coughing on cops remember And that was just like they gave him some like slap on the wrist charge we're

gonna arrest you or whatever yeah if it happened this week or imagine next week when it's even worse i wouldn't want to be caught coughing on a cop right oh dude don't cough on cops don't cough on people don't question i know yeah i know but why let's like i don't care if it's today tomorrow yesterday 10 years ago what are you doing coughing on people get That's not even a question. I know. Yeah, I know. I don't care if it's today, tomorrow, yesterday, 10 years ago. What are you doing coughing on people? Get out of here. That's true. The issue is the terrorism charge. Yeah.

Three to five years in prison. That's crazy. This dude, he's probably going to regret it, man. But come on. Am I being unreasonable to say that's crazy they're going to try and give that guy three to five years coughing on somebody? Yeah, that's crazy. He's a dick. Especially if he was, I mean, if it was joke and like he didn't actually cough on him it said

towards them near them near them not on them so apparently the story was like he was making fun of somebody then licking actual products in a store i don't know you know yeah that dude like that guy it's like and that's only a terrorist threat, right? I feel bad for this dude. Really? I do. I do feel bad for him. Because he thought he was going to be internet famous? No, he's just a moron.

He's just some stupid guy who thought it was funny that he was going to lick something. Same thing. Three to five years in prison. Is that what he's getting? It's terrorism. Yes. Terror charge. That's a little harsh.

Exactly. I think. So, but here's the thing. I think it's a little harsh, yeah. The prosecutors might negotiate it down. Yeah. And they'll end up with some kind of community service. I heard some people saying that this guy actually had previous charges against him or something. So he's probably in trouble. Yeah. OK. But I guess the bigger question is, how far are you willing to go to end this crisis? I think it's one of the reasons people think, you know, they want to

believe in a conspiracy, because when you see how one of the reasons people think, you know, they want to believe in a conspiracy because when you see how much power the government is grabbing, the charges they're putting against people who defy this, it's like it benefits them so greatly. You just don't want to believe it's legit. Like they're taking advantage of it. No, it's simple, man. People want power. Power corrupts.

And now they have an opportunity to take it because no one's going to tell them no. Yeah. So we're going to get our lockdown. No, no, no. Even like you keep saying people are asking for them to take. Oh, they're begging for it. Please, please take the power away and make us feel comfortable and safe. Here's a let's read the conclusion here from the Vox article. They say, while Trump does not have the formal power to force Americans out of their homes, he still has tremendous rhetorical power over his fellow

Republicans. If he told Americans to start living their lives as normal, it is likely that at least some Republicans would comply. Democrats, meanwhile, would be much more likely to ignore the president. This divide would also be reflected among state and local officials. Democratic mayors and governors would likely leave in place orders closing businesses and requiring residents to stay at home, while Republican officials would be more likely to march in lockstep with the president. In the short term, that would produce a health crisis that disproportionately impacts people who live in Republican governed states. In the longer term, however, coronavirus cares little about partisan affiliation or state borders. If the disease grows out of control in Alabama, it won't be long before it spreads to more Democratic states as well.

I'll tell you what, man. Most Republicans live in rural areas. So got to be honest, if Trump said do your thing and a bunch of rural areas are doing their thing and the Democrats in the city has just disappeared and locked down. I mean, the spread of infection

would be faster in a big city. New York's population density is like 28,000 people per square mile. That's crazy. 28,000 people. That's absolutely That's crazy. 28,000 people. That's absolutely insane. The density for the United States as a whole is like 90 people per square mile. Oh, wow.

There's so much space. It's so nice. Yeah, 90 people per square mile. That's a huge difference. Very, very huge. So I don't know, man. What do you think? You think the police should go around arresting people for being outside and breaking quarantine,

having parties? You know what? It's like I said. We were talking about the kids doing the Skullbreaker Challenge. You know, it's like, no, I don't want their lives ruined, okay, for doing something stupid. But I don't want other people to think that they're going to get famous also by doing something similar. Because that's kind of what is happening. People are making jokes and posting more things about this.

It's going to catch on and go viral. And it's not funny. It's not a good joke. Nobody feels bad for you for making these jokes and getting in trouble for it. So it's like you kind of said. It's like making an example isn't necessarily the right way. I don't like it. I know. I know. And I agree with you. And so it's kind of like a it's a it's a tough line,

I feel, because I don't like people doing this and I don't understand their mental state of why they they're doing this. But I want others to to to know, don't do this stupid stuff. Right. You know, don't don't also look in stuff. Don't be licking stuff. Don't be coughing on people. It's like social distancing is real. Do it. Keep your distance from people. Don't go and cough on stuff. And people are going to get pissed at you. And it's like, this is America. There's a gun behind every blade of grass, right? It's like, if you cough on someone in this kind of an environment, I right it's like if you cough on someone in this kind of an

environment yeah you can't like oh yeah dude i wouldn't be surprised if you got shot like i don't like i don't get it like dude yeah exactly it's like i don't trust that i wouldn't want to piss someone off i don't i don't know what kind of day they're having if you cough on the wrong person they're gonna walk wait until you go outside and shoot you you just coughed on me in this pandemic that's spreading like this. You can't do anything about it. It's just the wrong person, the wrong time. Yeah, exactly.

These people are lucky that the cops were called and they're actually being pulled instead of some person who's pissed, who's carrying a concealed weapon, who said, you just assaulted me in a pandemic. I mean, I'm just doing an extreme situation. Come to the south side of chicago you know what i mean cough on somebody exactly or come to chicago in general man yeah

go to chicago insult they'll yeah you mess with the wrong person the wrong time and even like road rage is crazy you know we talked about that you know it's another thing but let me let i got i gotta i gotta have to actually clarify what i just said okay um issue a correction i said that they would knock out some teeth. I'm sorry. It's Chicago. They call it Chirac. They'll pop a cap.

You will not last very long if you go around coughing on people. Right. Exactly. They're not going to play any games. They're not calling the police. No. They're going to handle it themselves. Nope.

And there's a lot of people that would do that. No, no, no. To be fair, more likely on the south side. There are some parts of the north side. Well, yeah, because the city pushed all the non-rich out to the south and remade the north side of Chicago to this pretty wonderland. You've got a bunch of different... It's really interesting how the south side has this. It's like there's different areas of different...

We have ethnic regions, almost like uh uh um you have little italy you've got ukrainian village the chinatown chinatown the midway area is all polish then you have bridgeport which is mostly like south side irish and any one of these people yeah it's gonna mess you up bad that's chic Chicago, dude. I wouldn't mess around. People have guns. Lots of them. Yeah. But, yeah. People think they're so safe.

Dude, we are so spoiled. On so many levels. People think they're so safe. Yeah, that's why they go riding bikes in Tajikistan smiling about how the world's a happy place and then they get beheaded. Yeah. And we just got demonetized.

Well, we think this can't happen here. That's how sheltered we are. This will never happen here. It's not a big deal. So I'll repeat it because I think the prosecutors are going to be like, we can't make this stick.

Yeah. Maybe they can though. Because I'll tell you what. In this kind of environment. Yeah, you go to a jury trial and they're like, ladies and gentlemen, this man licked deodorant at Walmart

during the pandemic and they'd be like, he's a witch. Burn him. But aren't the courts closed? Aren't the courts closed? I think some of them might be. Yeah, I don't know.

But it's a case-by-case basis. Maybe federal courts. Oh, okay. But, look, assuming the apocalypse isn't upon us, there will come a time where you will stand, you know, in front of a jury of your peers. Or in a jury, you know, you'll in front of a jury of your peers. You'll be judged by a jury of your peers. I have no peers. None?

No, I have none. We'll see what happens to this guy. But speaking of the apocalypse, it's here. Oh, cool. Yes, we are in the end of days. That's very exciting. We just had a major earthquake in Russia. Tsunami warning.

We have a locust plague now heading for Egypt. Multiple locust plagues. Multiple locust plagues. Yeah. We have a major pandemic. And yeah, the end is nigh. So we did talk a little bit about this the other day. But we actually had a bunch of stories and big breaking news.

Well, this is our next subject, right? Right. So let's jump into the super chat. Well, just a preview. Oh, right, right. And then we'll jump into the super chat. Okay, this is our next subject, right? Right. So let's jump into the super chats. We'll just do a preview, and then we'll jump into the super chats. We've got a bunch of stories about the apocalypse and the weird goings-on around the world. Before we do

jump into that, we are going to take super chats. And I'll try and figure out where we were, because YouTube is just really bad for... Alright, there we go. We're not actually too far away. Let's, uh... There we go. We'll just start from here. Max says,

My liquor store no longer allows folks I'm in Cheyenne, Wyoming, no longer allows folks in. You have to order by phone and then go grab, and go by to grab your booze. Interesting. Oh, man. Lance says, If this is as bad as they say, would you really want to come back to life to deal with it again?

That's an interesting point. Cassius says, Tim, are you familiar with the State of Jefferson movement? I'm in NorCal, and we have all the water and resources. It is very red up here. Yes, the State of Jefferson. Isn't that where they were talking about Oregon breaking off and joining up with Idaho? Oh, yeah. A bigger Oregon-Idaho state.

I was like, that sounds great. Do it. Yeah, do it. The divided states of America coming soon. It wouldn't change the number of states, right? Or would it? Would it create a new state? I think it would create a new state.

I believe. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It would not surprise me. Yeah, yeah, because parts of Idaho. Yeah. Justin Wright says, it's called Darwinism. It's making a comeback. P. Baldwin says, I played with Jake Allard, lacrosse player in our college at game

together. Senior All-American game. The kid was a monster and a great kid. Well, we're rooting for him, man. He's alive, so let's hope he gets better. King Lenny said, they should break out the old iron lung. I don't know if that would work. That just makes your lungs move, right?

That's basically a ventilator, as far as I can tell. An iron lung? It's cool. It's like forcibly moving your lungs from the exterior. Yeah, that's basically a ventilator as far as I can tell. An iron lung? It's cool. Really? Yeah, it's like forcibly moving your lungs from the exterior. Yeah, but that's not the problem. The problem is the air can't get to the lungs. The lungs aren't absorbing oxygen, right?

Viparous says, a quick Google search said that in 2012, researchers at Boston Children's Hospital developed an injectable microparticle that quickly oxygenates blood. Yeah, I was reading about that. Interesting, yeah. The Grizzly says, Tim, be careful. The Democrats may have just pushed us into... Oh, I'm sorry, I read that one. Aaron Bichard says, you should look

up the COVID queen singing video for some comic relief. Alright. Corasonic says, Weird Al has a song called Germs. It is so relevant to what is happening. Weird Al is great. What was the Netflix movie we were talking about earlier someone mentioned? Contamination or something? Yeah, something like that.

It wasn't Contagion. It was something similar. Yeah, like Contaminant or something. Contaminant maybe? Yeah, we'll look it up. Cassie S. N. Yuck, thanks for coming members. Michael Leitner says government should have suspended all payments for past debt. Evict, then no money was needed for rent, business included, just need food.

S. Meat Knight, Eagle Scouts are required to have first aid training. And when you do hostile environment training in general, for whatever purpose, like you could be a journalist, you could be a contractor, you do all the basic first aid training stuff too. You know what's really crazy? Every human should know that. Some people don't know how to apply a tourniquet. And they had to actually tell- Seriously? What? can understand it's surprising if you don't know what

a tourniquet does okay but they were like now if you have a wound on your leg does it go above or below the wound are you serious why would you put it under the wound so the blood would still come out you're trying to tie off the limbs. No, people didn't know that. Wow. I'll tell you a crazy story, though. You know what? Logic. I'm so logic based.

So I would be like, yeah, of course. But a lot of people aren't logic based. So here's a crazy story. You know that some people, when they see blood pass out, they can't do anything about it. They're not scared of it. It's a weird thing. So when I was doing hostile environment training, they made me do it. I was offended, by the way, but it's for insurance. What made you what? Look at blood? Or see blood?

No, no, no. ABC made me do hostile environment training with a bunch of noobs who had no idea how anything worked. And so it was really awesome, by the way, because we did these scenarios, and they're like, you're in a market. What happens? And I was like pickpocketing people. And I'm like, these people have no idea what they're doing. It's awesome. But they of course, when they were doing like a display, they said, we can't show you a human bleeding out. But the dude actually explains to us. He's like, some people will see a bleed and they will instantly just go out. Boom. They're just their heart slows down. They have no blood pressure. They pass out. What is the evolutionary precedent there? I don't know, but it's kind of like those goats that when they get

scared, they freeze up and fall over. That's not an advantage. He played a video of a pig femoral bleed. And all of a sudden, we heard a loud bang because some dude sitting in his chair just went limp and just hit the floor. And then once he hits the floor, what happens is the blood pressure

starts to normalize the blood to his brain. So now he starts waking back up. He tries standing up and then back down again. And so the instructor grabs his legs and lifts his legs up. So the blood starts going – he's getting some pressure back to the brain. And the guy comes to and tries moving, and the guy is like, stop moving. And the dude keeps trying. He's like, stop.

And everyone is like, whoa, moving. And the dude keeps trying. He's like, stop. And everyone's like, whoa, dude. And the guy just stops. And then he was like, you just passed out. Your blood pressure is low. You have to stop, calm down. And they turn the video off. And then he went on to say like, for some reason, people will see it and they go, they go out.

Yeah, crazy. Side note. Anyway, let's get back to the Super Chats. Jeremiah Uman says, hello from Springfield, Missouri. Elliot H. Anyway, let's get back to the Super Chats. Moving on.

I am a Trump supporter, but love your content. Keep it up. Thanks. You know what, man?

November's coming up. And remember that there is a 1400 page bill with weird garbage in it that makes no sense. And I have no idea why we're sitting here saying, like, why can't we get this done? Right. I have no idea why we're sitting here saying like, why can't we get this done? Right. I have no idea. SK says, Balkanization coming, all hail greater Appalachia. And then just jumped on us again. There we go. Colton, thanks for the super chat. G Bart says, our age of civilization is coming to an end. I would rather fight and die to be free rather than live under a government who thirst for control to control us to no end.

Seriously, give us beanies. We will not give beanies. You can buy beanies.

Well, and actually, it was just kind of, there was a chat that just passed and it's about moving our production here. Not only do I want to find a good beanie, I want to make it. I want to find it in the US. Yeah. So it's even harder. So like 90% of what people are sending me for beanies made in China. Or Indonesia or like Vietnam. Somewhere other than here.

So it's like, I don't want that. You know, one thing I've learned from this. Maybe we'll just have to hand stitch them ourselves. Yep. Buy a factory and start a beanie company. Maybe. Cost 50 bucks a pop. Lawrence Custom says,

My friends overseas said violations are fine. In our state right now, if you are breaking lockdown rules, it's a misdemeanor offense if you don't have paperwork backing up your travels. Cameron Young says, my command stated if Prez says return to normalcy, our command would continue in its strict schedule and procedures. I was placed on COVID-19 info team today. F me. Wow. Shane says, DC mayor just shut the city down. Now Pelosi has an excuse to not work. Great. Tara Olson says, four horsemen. Andrew Nelson says, What do you think of all the AVE's last-ditch ventilator?

Not meant as a mainline thing, just if there isn't anything else around but it could work. What's AVE? I don't know what that is. Neither that is. What is it? I'm not sure. Sorry. Zikshi says, fun fact, the CCP spokesman started US conspiracy, followed a famous Japanese porn star first days on Twitter, calling her my babe. Wow. Drifted Cowboy says Google censorship has been lifted regarding Pizzagate, the Podesta artwork, Adrenochrome, spirit cooking and more. It's well, this person says it's real. They have to hide it from us. Do your research. Ask why. I will tell you this right now. It is not real, especially not Pizzagate, because I know the people who are making things up and I watched people make fake stuff that went viral. And it is really annoying to see that people one day just copy and pasted text. And all of a sudden now it's like, everyone thinks

it's real. Yeah. It's so dumb. So, so stupid. Don't believe everything you read on the internet, man. Look, I got, I got no, uh, if you told me that a bunch of people in the government are doing drugs and doing really messed up stuff, total, you don't got to tell me twice, man. I believe it. Like these people are doing like they're, they're doing tons of drugs and doing nasty stuff. We just saw those photos of Andrew Gillum. Yeah. We know what goes on. The problem is people started putting out like, uh, fake texts, fake code words, and everyone just ate it up. It's, it's so annoying. Cause I remember when that story was breaking and I, it started going viral. And so I'm looking at

people are saying on Twitter and I'm like, that was literally just made up. That's not true. And now to this, to this day, people think this stuff is true. Were there, was there weird stuff in the emails from WikiLeaks? You better believe it. Do we know what any of it means? We do not. The people took those emails, took random words out and then created memes claiming they meant things that no one ever, ever proved that, you know, and now people believe it. You get me ranting on this stuff. The reason it makes me angry is because if we actually wanted to figure out what they were really doing,

which is probably drugs, to be honest, because we saw what Andrew Gillum was doing. Now you've created this fake meme. Here's my conspiracy. Pizzagate is the conspiracy. To actually discredit the fact that these Democrats have been busted doing drugs like meth.

They change it to something that makes literally no sense and make a bunch of fake nonsense to confuse everybody. Pizzagate. That to me is much more believable than the fake buzzwords that are circling around the internet that people think are real. That would be easy to do. Right. Then you could just say it's nothing but nonsense. Nothing to see here.

And it's easily provable that it's fake. Right. Easily provable. Like some of the stuff that came out from Pizzagate, I know for a fact was fabricated. And to this day, people still think it's fake. Easily provable. Some of the stuff that came out from Pizzagate I know for a fact was fabricated and to this day people still think it's real. And it's like, no matter how much I tell you, dude, that's not real. They're like, I don't believe you. I'm like, okay, dude. But I will say this.

There's creepy emails. Come on, dude. They're talking about drugs. They're talking about doing drugs. And then we just have those photos of the dude in Florida. Come on, man. We know they're doing drugs. And they don't want to admit it because it's illegal. And they're the ones. This is what they do.

They get the keys to the castle. They have armed security, but no armed security for you. No drugs for you, but they go and do drugs. Beast. All right, where are we at? Beast on the run says, does Lydia get the cloud district, get to the cloud district very often? Oh, what am I saying?

Of course she doesn't. Christopher Lambert says, think about cleaning services who go into a building every night, touch everything and go to another building and do it again. In VA, they're, they're considered essential. Wow. Greg Langford said, could it be that Trump downplayed the virus at first to slow the panic and enact policies to slow the spread before the Dems try to shut him down? Yes. and I've said that. If he came out right away and was like, the end is nigh, they'd attack him for it. Right, of course. And the people would riot. Right.

Oh, for sure. And the stores would get shredded. So he started a task force, shut down travel, and then started saying, no, no, no, everything's going to be okay. Everything's going to be okay. Yeah, giving hope. Giving time for them to actually. So people don't freak out and get crazy.

Unsubstantiated hope. Unsubstantiated hope. Unsubstantiated hope, they call it. Yu Yu says, see the memes about the new government of KY. I have not. Denwo says, Derek Jensen forgets he's deep green resistance. Sly Bread says, did Revelation say the end of the world would be signaled by trumpets or trump pence? Oh, snap. Nice.

millions of species on earth we only have evidence of intra-evolution i don't i don't know what they're trying to say are they trying to say evolution is not real don't know no idea because we actually just had a story the other day we didn't get to about the wonder chicken oh yeah and how they found evidence of evolution. Let's keep pushing it back so we can talk about it eventually. Yeah, we got to talk about the Wonder Chicken. We'll just leave it on the docket. Evan Wilbank says, Adam, contact Jocko Wilnick and see if his company will make them.

William says for East, uh, East ECMO ECMO, they have to flip you on your stomach, put two lines in your jugular, trach you in the neck and then put you in a coma. Wow. That's a mess.

Yeah, we are. We went to Costco. We loaded up a huge truck full. No, we got a little thing of maple syrup. I know. I'm just kidding. All right, all right, all right. It's the end of the world, man.

Oh, my goodness. The end of the world is upon us, and the signs are here. My grandma's been telling me this for years, actually. Has she really? I'm dead serious. She's been telling me for years. What is she saying? It's the end of the world.

It's coming soon. Why does she think so? Just random stuff, like anything that's going on in the world, like how times. I mean, I don't know how we get into these conversations, but she always slips it in there that it's like, well, I'm not even worried because it's the end anyway. I'm imagining I know where I'm going. I'm imagining it's like you're you're sitting down and she's like, Adam, I need to talk to you about something serious. And then it's like I imagine a time lapse. And she's like, oh, yeah. And like, Trump?

Apocalypse. Yeah. Yeah. Beanie babies? Apocalypse. And you're like, uh-huh. She's like, yeah, yeah. Papa John's got fired.

Apocalypse. Yep. Yep. All right, Grandma. Yeah. So this is actually a story from a few weeks ago. We are in the last days. Locust swarm approaching Egypt sparks Bible apocalypse fears. A locust swarm approaching Egypt has led a Bible

scholar to claim we are in the last days urging Christians to prepare for the second coming of Christ. Now, apparently this story has actually only gotten worse. China has moved in. We did talk about it a little bit. But the reason I bring this up is because the big news is actually this. Russia earthquake. Now, this is from today. 7.5. 7.5.

And it sent a tsunami warning through, I think, Hawaii. Got the warning, too. An earthquake which struck near Russia's Kuril Islands has led the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center to warn of possible hazardous tsunami waves within 620 miles. Wow. Check this out. So I think it does. They gave a warning to Hawaii. You can see, I think, you know, Japan probably got it as well. Yeah. Tsunami warnings have been issued after a huge 7.5 magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of a Russian island. The U.S. Geological Survey said Wednesday, Wednesday's quake struck 135 miles southeast of Russia's Kuril Islands chain north of Japan. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said hazardous tsunami waves were possible within 620 miles.

It added earthquakes of this strength in the past have caused tsunamis far from the epicenter. And the U.S. National Tsunami Warning Center was analyzing the event to determine the level of danger. However, meteorological officials in Japan issued no alerts following the quake, although they said there might be slight tidal changes. Now, I always have to rain on everyone's parade. Oh, yeah. Because right now, we're going to do it so well. There's going to be a ton of people, and they're going to be like, oh, man, I'm so interested. Like, what are these things happening? Well, if you'd like to hear about crazy shenanigans turn

on history channel for ancient aliens here we're a bit more skeptical earthquakes and tsunamis happen yeah they happen all the time and no one pays attention to them but now that we're in the midst of a national emergency everything is standing out to everybody yeah so they're like locusts and like earthquakes here and there and it's like yeah but like here we go yeah there's been um a plague of not magpies there's a certain type of bird that's taking over africa really yeah in like south africa not not the country but like south of the southern right and it's they're just they move to where the water is they always know so they're the first ones there they eat up all the green right away and they're just they're just taking over yeah so it's pretty crazy this one's funny express.co.uk is is very bullish on the apocalypse the biblical

one because they've got a bunch of stories about this. This one is from March 17th. Coronavirus in the Bible. Preacher warns of apocalyptic signs as end of world nears. What do you mean the coronavirus is in the Bible? I did not see that reference. Lay the facts upon me, Express. Yeah, let's go. They say the coronavirus has already killed more than 7,500 people. Well, it's actually way higher than that now.

But a bigger disaster could be brewing on the horizon. Indiana-based preacher and evangelist Paul Begley believes the coronavirus is a sign of the end times. Begley, who preaches from West Lafayette in the US, spoke during an online sermon about the prophetic meaning of coronavirus. In a broadcast titled Prophetic Apocalyptic Plagues of the End Times, he cited passages from the Bible that supposedly back his bizarre claims. He said, the coronavirus has hit the world and no one saw it coming,

or at least very few did. And what's happened is out of Wuhan, China, the coronavirus has exploded on the scene. The numbers of people infected way up in the thousands and the death toll rising every day by the hundreds. And yet there's no cure, no vaccines, and really no one can pinpoint the origin of this end time plague. Okay. He just called it an end time plague. He hasn't, he hasn't given us any reason people like why he thinks that I'm still waiting for it. And while the bodies are piling up and people are afraid, the question becomes how to prevent it and where will it spread next? As of 525 GMT on March 17th, the, in fact, they go on to say, yeah, OK, anyway, let's read. We already know this.

Yeah, more than 190,000 people have been affected. OK, so so here's here we go. Here we go. He says the Bible does talk about plagues in the last days. He then cited Christian scripture from Matthew 24. The passage in the Bible reads,

Jesus answered, watch out that no one deceives you, for many will come come in my name, claiming I am the Messiah and will deceive many. And what does that have to do with anything? You will hear. OK, you will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see, see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen. But the end is still to come. Nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. Oh, man. How convenient. All these are the beginning of birth pains. According to Pastor Begley,

these warning signs of the end times are already unfolding before our very own eyes. There is, however, nothing to suggest the coronavirus is big enough or deadly enough to be considered a biblical plague. Oh, is that it? Okay. No, no, no. Is there a little more? Wait a minute. No, there was was he said that it the bible refers to the coronavirus and that and then they never even said it that was not wait a second yeah this article's from what last week i don't know i didn't see yeah yeah let's go let's check the data on this what is it march 17th i'm pretty sure right updated march 17th okay and what did he say earthquakes therequakes. Boom, boom, boom.

Boom, boom, boom. There will be famines and earthquakes. And what are we seeing? Locusts are ravaging crops. Locusts are a biblical plague. Yeah. And an earthquake just hit. Technically correct.

You know, to be honest, if you're looking for the signs, you can find them. Exactly. Let's be real. You know what I mean? You find what you're looking for. Or they adjust it.

I said, you know, locusts kind of go crazy. And I think it's happened before it's happened in the same areas too where it's happening now right so people ignore it exactly so he says what is it what is it the who said wait the who said wait is therefore quite normal for people to worry about the covet 19 outbreak will uh how it will affect them and their loved ones regardless pastor begley, the plagues of the last days or the plagues of the end times,

they start the clock ticking. Yes, right. The end is nigh. And so, once, you know, of course, there's another story. Because I swear, Express loves this. Coronavirus prophecy. Bizarre claim. Four horsemen of the

apocalypse have arrived. Wasn't someone in the super chat just talking about this? You guys were saying, like, yeahre claim. Four horsemen of the apocalypse have arrived. Wasn't someone in the super chat just talking about this? You guys were saying like, yeah, it's the horsemen. Coronavirus is infected. A lot of people, this is from earlier this month. Why are people claiming the four horsemen of the apocalypse have arrived? One of the horsemen of the apocalypse is death. So I'm assuming that might be one that they're referring to.

Famine, plague, or no, pestilence. War, was it war, famine, pestilence? I don't know. I don't know. Maybe they'll tell us. Everyone's going to go nuts in the comments being like, this is, you know, that we can tell you. Yeah. The world's in the grips of the coronavirus. We get it. Tell us about the horsemen. I get it. Look, they just express stuffs the article. And then someone said, here we go. Militant Christians and biblical hardliners have flooded social media with claims. The coronavirus is the harbinger of the apocalypse. John Angel back tweeted coronavirus

Hurricane Katrina. You ain't seen nothing yet, pal. Oh, my God. Just read the book of Revelation. Repent or your sin for your sins before it is. Repent of your sins before it is too late. Ah, yes, here's a nice photo of what appears to be the four horsemen, you know, taking people out. I do care about you and those who think like you do and those who don't. Another Twitter user said, beginning of sorrows, Matthew 24, three through eight, Australian wildfiresfires, coronavirus earthquakes in odd places, increased rage and murders worldwide, massive hunger increases. And there are those that laugh about the book of revelation, but where are these outrageous claims about biblical prophecy coming from? Many Christians believe the end of the world was prophesied in the, in the last chapter of the Bible, the book of revelation, the book of revelation details, the cataclysmic events

that will unfold before the second coming of Christ. One of of Revelation details the cataclysmic events that will unfold before the second coming of Christ. One of these events will be the arrival of the four horsemen of the apocalypse, one of which is believed to be represented by the coronavirus. Here we go. Death, war, famine, pestilence, or plague. Evangelists Gerald Flurry and Wayne Turgeon of The Trumpet said, we have already examined the first three horsemen. The first is religious deception. Next is war, then famine. Wait, which one is religious? Death is? With the fourth, pestilence. These horsemen represent the final end time culmination of the most traumatic problems endured by a rebellious mankind. They picture one of the most ominous

scenarios ever. It is imperative that each of us takes heed while there is still time. Conspiracy theorists have claimed online the coronavirus represents the pale horse and its rider. Charity Mukaba tweeted, the rider of this pale horse has been released on Earth today. We can already see the plagues of locusts and pestilence like coronavirus that have brought death. Locusts have brought famine. John the Apostle wrote in Revelation 6, And I looked and I behold a pale horse, and his name that sat on him was death, and hell followed with him.

I'm sorry. I don't understand how coronavirus is a horse. And I also love to point out that Express just dug up a bunch of tweets from random Twitter users and then claimed like there's some authority here claiming this stuff is true. They just slapped it together. Yeah, right. The Book of Revelations is already really confusing. I think a lot of Christians don't even understand it.

And there's literally a verse in the Bible that says not even Jesus knows when this is going to happen. So there's no one who can possibly say with any kind of assurance. Or the apocalypse is now. Yeah. And the horseman is here to kill us all. So, you know. We are dying. That's probably it.

Look, to be honest, it's the waiting I can't stand. What is this? Let me know. Tim, what is this? I don't. They keep running these stories express. Like, they must be getting a lot of clicks on these. I'm sure they are.

Well, I think it's fun to point out. Well, look at the number one videos, you know, trending on Nostradamus. Oh'm sure they are. Well, I think it's fun to point out. Look at the number one videos trending on Netflix. Nostradamus. It's like outbreak, contagion. It's all these same things. Of course it is. They want to talk about locusts and stuff.

There's actually been two very, very terrifying signs that, to me, say the apocalypse is coming. Go on. You thought coronavirus was scary? The first is that Cheesecake Factory will not be able to pay its rent. Yes. The end is here. The end of time.

Cheesecake Factory. Where will I get my cookie dough cheesecake after this? As far as I'm concerned, my world is coming to an end. They don't have my sympathy. I'm kidding. I'm kidding. They don't have a sympathy. I'm kidding. I'm kidding. They don't have a vegan cheesecake. No, no, no. We went there and they were mean to us. That's true.

It was one local chain. They were mean to us. We walked out. I'm not going to hold it against every Cheesecake Factory, but I must digress. I was just kidding. Obviously, I don't care that much about the Cheesecake Factory, but there are real signs of the end time upon us. Like this one. BuzzFeed is slashing employee pay amid the coronavirus

crisis. My world is ending. Where will I get my listicles and learn about, I don't know, Billie Eilish? What kind of princess am I? Who are the kids listening to these days? Yeah, it's Billie Eilish unfortunately. This is actually funny enough, this is the first time I've seen a Buzz... Oh, this isn't

BuzzFeed here. Oh, okay, I was gonna say, this is the first Buzz I've seen a Buzz... Oh, this isn't BuzzFeed here. Oh, okay. I was going to say, this is the first BuzzFeed article I've ever seen. No, it's not even a BuzzFeed article. Oh, okay. Well, then I can still say I haven't seen BuzzFeed. So let me just wrap things up for everybody. You know, it's fun to talk about the apocalypse and revelations. And maybe we should actually do like a deep dive into like theories and ideas.

Like, you know know the procession of the equinox kind of stuff and what could revelations mean for now we have all these articles popping up where people cherry pick things and claim it's an analogous to some prophecy yeah like they said there would be a pale horse what they really meant was a tiny virus pale microbe yes that it turns up light on the microscope i'm'm sorry, man. I do not see how you connect those two things. If a dude rode on a horse like coughing and gagging and that's what started everything, I'd be like, at least the guy was on a horse. Or the horse was coughing and gagging.

One of the two. I mean, could you actually imagine if like all of this started with a dude riding a horse? Wait, a bat's not like considered a horse like the Chinese word. A bat is a horse that proves it. That's it. There you go. Bats are exactly like horses. The end is nigh.

You're welcome. Well, you know, I'm glad that we ended this on a light note because we started on a very, very dark note where we actually were like, you know, here's what's funny. You want to talk about the end of the world? You don't got to talk about Bibles, prophecies, Nostradamus. You talk about hospitals deciding they're going to DN don't got to talk about Bibles, prophecies, Nostradamus. You talk about hospitals deciding they're going to DNR people. Oh, man.

That's scary. That's way scarier. Yeah, that is pretty frightening. Now, I'll be honest. If I saw four dudes on horseback flying through the sky, I'd freak out. Yep. Okay, but that's just not going to happen. So, I mean, you know, whatever. I'll reserve the possibility that, you know, we don't know enough about the universe.

Maybe one day you'll see, like, some dudes with dudes with like skulls for heads and swords or something. And, you know. Yep. For the time being. We're going to see the next viral like stupid person. Oh, yeah. Running around on a fake horse. You know, the blow up horse.

Wait a minute. Oh, gosh. Arnold. Oh, my. The mini horses. The two horses. No way. The video was about the the car no way arnold's way too cool for that so uh he's trying to help yeah maybe so the governator was like what was he like a hot tub or something on a bench the governator that's what we call him the governor i didn't know but that's great when he was talking to his little horse and dogs and then the little horse came up

and like i gotta see that video it's see that video. It's pretty funny. It's probably on his Instagram or something. Let's jump over to these last super chats.

Cord, thanks for the super chat. Victor says, we have no problem believing that priest, that hundreds of priests F kids. But when we talk about politicians doing the same, most people get outraged. Logic. No, I don't. Didn't that happen in the UK? I don't know a whole lot about it, but wasn't there like some big scandal in UK parliament? Yeah, there was some dude who was clearly not on the up and up there. Something happened. I don't know. I don't know enough about it.

Yeah, same here. Drifted Cowboy says there is far more to the pizza gate than a few means. I do not agree. Research is an ongoing process. You have dismissed with prejudice before seeking the full picture. Spirit cooking, adrenocoma, and Epstein. No, the reality is I know so much more about this than like 99% of people because when the story first started, there were a ton of mainstream Trump supporters tweeting about it. And I was doing a ton of research on it. And I was like, this is not real. And so I actually talked with some of the people who are sharing fake things. I'll just put it this way. I don't care about this. I ignore it for the most part.

It's a bunch of people who I think in all likelihood chased themselves into a spiral where they've now created a fictitious version of what was really going on, which completely undermines the actual thing they're trying to claim is going on. And well, that's just the easy way to put it. They started, like, there's literally things that I see every day that people are claiming, look at this thing. This proves it. And I'm like, I know that that for a fact was made up. I know for a fact. I remember when that was made up. It was literally made up and now they think it's real. And you know what? You've based everything off of these lies. So if you want to talk about what politicians are doing behind closed doors, nasty things with, you know, kids and stuff, dude, yeah,

there's a bunch of creepy people in power like Epstein. We know it. Yeah, obviously. But when you start creating these weird, you know what it reminds me of? Futurama. When they go back in time and they it's when they go back in time and they crash the alien ship or Bender, they find Bender like it's Roswell. And then he's like, we've invited these generals and a single conspiracy nutter no one will believe. And then a guy takes a picture of Bender and then the picture is the Loch Ness Monster. Like, it's just so ridiculous. Yeah, yeah. If you want to talk about a real conspiracy, it's that y'all got seeded a bunch of very obvious fake information that has now become

the basis of something that is easily verifiably fake, that has thrown you all off course to what the real investigation is. This is why I can't stand conspiracy theories, because if you want to actually uncover the crime and do real investigative work, you cannot assert a bunch of things without hard evidence. And even if you do believe you have circumstantial evidence, you have to wait until you get the physical hard evidence. So you can believe it by all means. Start from the beginning. Otherwise, what happens is they put a bunch of fake memes out there. People then picked it up and immediately a bunch of journalists were like, I can prove that's false. The whole story is dead. There's weird stuff in those emails. Guess what? You killed the story. Congratulations. Now no one will ever investigate

it. Right. Good work. Evans, thanks for the super chat. Adam says, Demo Ranch's shirt making company is Bunker Branding. Cool. Chekhovall says, Jesus Returns turned away at

knowing deities. I'm going to work. We shouldn't. But the mortality rate will be so much so much higher if we don't have these hospital beds. You know what, man? We can overreact, underreact. No matter what happens, it's going to get bad, and then everyone's going to point the finger at someone else.

Corny says, decode genetics has so far sequenced around 40 different mutations of the coronavirus in its testing in Iceland, and one individual has been found to be infected with two variations at the same time. Yeah, that's what I was referring to earlier. Where was it from? What was the source on that? I don that's what I was referring to earlier. Where was that from? What was the source on that?

Yeah. I saw it go by. Yeah, I'm not sure. SDK says, not a biblical scholar, but didn't Jesus say, do not look for signs of the end, for the end will come like a thief in the night? That is something I've heard as well. Is he? Yeah, it's going to be a total mystery.

reminder that at the end of the world, Satan will take the form of a seven-headed red dragon and be slain by Jesus. Is that true? What? Second Fleet says, Tim, Revelations is a scientific description of the death of a seven-headed red dragon and be slain by Jesus. Is that true? What? Second Fleet says, Tim, Revelations is a scientific description of the death of Sol in about three billion years. Cool. Michael, thanks for the super chat. Small, thanks for becoming a member.

Diego Diaz says what I get from the apocalypse is that in the end of times, Jesus will come back from the skies to take the ones who believes in him and and establish his realm on Earth and the

world will unite to fight him. Really? Diego then says, I'm a Christian and I believe in the Bible, but it sounds like aliens to me. Love your videos, dude. Keep it up. Keep it on. I like to hear other opinions. Thank you. Absolutely. Well, oh, Jonabob says, forgive us soy Jesus for we know not what we chew. Ceruleos says, that's good. Should essential employees receive a bonus from their companies for the risks involved in staying open, or should it be a raise on their hourly rate? I don't know. I don't know.
