Starting point is 00:00:00 Welcome ladies and gentlemen to the TimCast IRL podcast. My name is Tim Poole and joining me tonight is... You guessed it. It's me. It's me. Adam. How many people are like, I don't know who this guy is. Hey, Soy Jesus. Come on. Soy Jesus. The one and only.
Starting point is 00:00:15 Is that your new nickname? Is that it? I mean, it's stuck, man. I'm embracing it. Can't be removed. Whatever. I love soy. Soy. I'm a big fan. I don't like soy. I love soy. Soy. I'm a big fan. I don't like soy.
Starting point is 00:00:27 I don't like it. No? I like... Edamame? Man, I'll crush some edamame. I don't like edamame. No, I'll eat it, but... I'm a huge fan.
Starting point is 00:00:34 You know, there's a meme. Soy boy? Okay. You know about it? I've heard it, but I don't think I've ever seen it. Because they were calling you soy bro. Yeah. It's like, I guess a bro is a level up.
Starting point is 00:00:44 Oh, right. Yeah. But... a level up all right yeah but um i'll level up so soy boy is basically people who consume all of this soy and then apparently it's like full of estrogens you have that so it makes them more though it's not well no no it is it's phytoestrogen but here's what people don't get and i'm i am not a nutritionist so i could be completely wrong but i was reading a thing about it yeah and what i read was that phytoestrogens that that are in soy and stuff like that they're actually a weaker form of estrogen okay and so it blocks the receptors in your body which blocks the natural estrogen in your body so you get a weaker form so it's actually not the case so i'm actually more manly well i just think it's it's you know we can't
Starting point is 00:01:24 really say it's a meme right it's meant to be a joke i donly well i just think it's it's you know we can't really say it's a meme right it's meant to be a joke i don't think some people think it's legit it's it's serious i think these you know like the guys from buzzfeed do you know about the try guys i don't know anything about buzzfeed i'm not trying to be mean to these guys because i tasty some sort of yeah kitchen utensil walmart kitchen utensils random i. I'm just going to say it. You guys, if you don't know this, BuzzFeed, like a big part of their business is selling cookware and like spatulas at Walmart.
Starting point is 00:01:52 Yeah, cheap stuff. And they also have- Not even good. Yeah. But they have another brand where you'll actually go to BuzzFeed and there will be a story and you'll click it and it's their company selling cookware.
Starting point is 00:02:10 That's their, I mean, it's smart you know but anyway look there there are these four guys i don't know if they're still with buzzfeed or whatever but they're called the try guys the try guys and they were like we're gonna go get our our testosterone levels checked and they're and they and they published this i was surprised because okay their t levels were equivalent to that like a 60 year old man like 60 or 70 and that's bad and they were like in their 20s or something super low super low yeah they're like in their 20s and their their testosterone was that was like if they were an old man it's crazy bunch of old guys no but they're young like dude they were scrawny scrawny weak buzzfeed dudes like effeminate i'm not trying i'm not saying that to be like to elicit an emotional reaction like to drag them or anything i got no beef with these guys yeah
Starting point is 00:02:47 i'm just i'm surprised they they they published that no good for them yeah anyway the reason i'm talking about this for the most part is that uh dude the news is hell is pure hell i agree and and i will second that and we're both like, well, all three of us are sitting here and it's like downtrodden. What should we talk about today? Well, there's we got coronavirus. We also have coronavirus
Starting point is 00:03:15 and followed it up with coronavirus. Well, I guess we'll go with coronavirus. I was thinking back to the good old days when we made fun of Birds of Prey and Harley Quinn. I miss those days. I was like, wasn't it fun when we made fun of how stupid that movie was? And we talked about how awesome Sonic was. Yeah. Man, that was two different episodes.
Starting point is 00:03:31 That was a good movie. What has happened to this world? We should watch that movie and reminisce. We should. Like, look. Birds of Prey. No, no. Sonic.
Starting point is 00:03:39 Not that one. No. I don't wish that movie upon anyone. Especially us. No. We've seen it already. For real, though. Once was enough. I will quickly say, for those that are just tuning in, hit that like button., especially us. No, for... We've seen it already. For real, though. Once was enough.
Starting point is 00:03:45 I will quickly say, for those that are just tuning in, hit that like button. It really helps. Yes, it does. Pop over to the Super Chat if you want us to read your comments, and you can become a member if you'd like. But, you know, we've got a very grim and morbid story we're going to lead with. Again. Again, of course.
Starting point is 00:04:01 But before we do that, let's have a little chat about you know when we first started doing this there was some newsy stuff but you know like the main idea i had was like i talk about news and politics all day we don't need to do that right and now we we have literally nothing else like you go to you go to any news website coronavirus yeah corpses morgues military yeah and i was thinking like why are we doing this again and i'm like we're sitting down here trying to figure out what do we have to talk about what's like the big deal and then i'm like i'm scrolling through various news websites and every single story is like the apocalypse is upon us yeah so i started thinking i'm like is there some kind of
Starting point is 00:04:38 show or movie that just came out that maybe you could watch and like talk about i mean i am i am looking forward to westworld i liked it i just i thought it was good but it's no long not none of this stuff is culturally relevant now i guess not yeah yeah nobody it's it's like there used to be birds of prey is in the news and things are happening yeah and then we were like cool let's go see it and then do like a review and then feminists hate sonic because it's right it's not birds of prey and it's like what and we talked about that and it was like pop culture celebrity stuff and i'll and i'll be real with all you guys watching the the segments we did making fun of celebrities did better than like most segments we do yeah but but that's because it's like we were having fun you know it's like we want it
Starting point is 00:05:18 brushes on pop culture kind of right because well it's literally pop culture oh yeah okay so right in the center of pop culture yeah man right so here's here's what i want to do like i talk about politics all day we're talking about the same thing i actually even talked about this but like there's literally nothing yeah all anyone cares about right now is the world is ending and for real like the the approval ratings for the president and in in like the gallup polls tracking what people are talking about no one's talking about tv no one's talking about TV. No one's talking about movies. Movies are shut down. Sports shut down. There's nothing. We can't complain about how that one basketball player, you know, should have been followed and he wasn't like, nope. You know what we could talk about? The morgues are overflowing in New York.
Starting point is 00:05:58 And that's our first story. Great segue. Yep. Yep. So look, you know, I feel like we're getting so grim with this show because these stories every day are just so horrifying. And I hope this isn't the new normal. I really hope not, too. But we actually have another story that Harvard is saying two years. I actually don't know if I have it pulled up, but Harvard is saying, and same thing MIT said, two years of this. Two years of what?
Starting point is 00:06:24 Lockdown. Is that because it's basically that long until we have a vaccine that's verified? No. Dr. Fauci said it's going to be seasonal. I know, but if we have a vaccine for it, then- Maybe. I don't know. Or is it going to just keep changing?
Starting point is 00:06:40 What they're saying is that in two years, maybe we'll have herd herd immunity and then it'll become kind of like a flu okay but for the time being they're saying we're going to lock down for two months reopen for a month until we hit a certain per capita per capita infection rate and then lock down for another two months right away which means yeah dude i gotta be honest man we we we have a another story that we're going to go through the economic stimulus package yeah everybody Everybody's going to get $1,200. Boom. And if you lost your job, the government's going to pay your wages for four months. Wow, really? Yeah. How long is that going to last, though? I didn't hear that part. Yep. That's the Venezuela route. Hey, everybody's out of work, and let's just print more money. And then what happens? Then you have garbage bags full of money that nobody wants. So we're already seeing prices spike but uh i do have some good news because we do have another story we're gonna
Starting point is 00:07:29 talk about it's uh exo exoskeleton development dope iron man iron man suits iron man suits i want one so you should all get one and review them yeah they're half a million dollars have you seen the guy who can fly with the suit? Can we rent them? You can. I think you can pay the guy. There's like this guy who made this suit. He's got turbines like. Yeah, I've seen that. In your hands.
Starting point is 00:07:49 Yeah. Like twin turbines. Yeah, yeah. One on each side. And you can pay him or something. Oh, okay. Yeah. Okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:55 For the show. For research. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think. I don't know where he is. Who wants to see Tim fly around in an iron suit? Yes. I know I do.
Starting point is 00:08:02 I gotta be real with y'all. I gotta be real. You know why we don't have them now? They're novelties. They'll never make sense. Yeah, that's true. Because imagine you're flying around and then one minor malfunction
Starting point is 00:08:12 and you die. That's a good point. Nothing we can do about that. So actually, I was watching this documentary about jetpacks. Okay. Why is it that
Starting point is 00:08:20 we don't have them when they actually developed a jetpack in the 70s that could carry you for half like half an hour? And the reason was the because if you fall, you die. If you fall, you die. That's pretty. And in war, you're easily shot at and like, you know, taken out.
Starting point is 00:08:36 Yeah. And so they just said, why don't we just use helicopters? And so they just use helicopters. That makes sense. You can carry more people. It's more efficient. But they had this floating platform you could stand on. So it's actually really cool.
Starting point is 00:08:49 It's like, I don't even know how to describe it. Like there's a cylinder kind of shape thing with a fan in it. You stand on it and there's like a railing and it flies. So like a hovercraft platform thing? Yeah, they're trying to figure out how to make like soldiers who could move better. Okay. But in the end, man, flight,, imagine if you're going through the jungle. What are you going to do?
Starting point is 00:09:06 Are you going to fly over the trees? The military is just making robots anyway. That's the future. I'm pissed. There's going to be no humans on the battlefield. It's just going to be robots fighting each other. We already have flying robots. Until they all turn on us and go, we're not going to kill each other anymore.
Starting point is 00:09:19 We're going to kill you. Wasn't that on a show or something? The robots are like, why are we killing each other? Let's kill them. It was an iRobot? No. No. What was it from? No, that's the I did not kill him movie. I don't remember. Where the robot slams the table. iRobot. Oh, yeah, that's right. Right. The AI took over. Yeah, I think so. I mean, talking about this is way more fun than talking about the collapse of civilization. I'm trying to push it off as far as I can.
Starting point is 00:09:49 We got to do it. Let's just jump into it. Let's get it over with. All right. Check this out. New York City's morgues are expected to hit their 900 body capacity in seven days as it asks FEMA for emergency assistance in the military set up refrigerated trucks outside Manhattan's Bellevue Hospital as the city's death toll nears 200. The first thing I'm going to say, take a look at these photos. So I guess these are FEMA emergency tents or something. They're trying to expand the capacity of these hospitals. And I don't get it, man. People are saying it's not real. Like on Twitter, they're like, I don't know anybody who's got it.
Starting point is 00:10:20 Just because you can't see it doesn't mean it's not real, people. Yeah. What's the famous quote from Kurt Cobain? I don't know. Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean it's not real people yeah yeah what was what's the famous quote from kurt cobain i don't know just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not after you yeah i like that but uh what's it's what's interesting too is over on the the the donald trump website they're like big forum someone posted like serious question do you know anybody who has this and all the comments like yes yes i do they're like my my you know housekeeper like my wife sister or something things like that so yeah what's crazy is how quickly these hospitals are
Starting point is 00:10:52 filling up yeah and we have a couple viral videos interestingly this is not calling it this is not the the video like from the new york times but this is showing clips in the new york times so the reason why you don't see any photos or videos from inside hospitals, the first big reason, nobody's thinking about filming anything. Like people are dying. Not only that,
Starting point is 00:11:14 but the average person isn't going back into the ER. Like, I don't know, maybe I'm wrong, but every hospital I've been to, like there's a lobby and you can't go anywhere unless they call you in and the doors are sealed, right? Yeah, exactly. There you go. So maybe we should expect to see more filming in the lobby, but dude, a lobby and you can't go anywhere unless they call you in and the doors are sealed, right? Yeah, exactly. There you go.
Starting point is 00:11:25 So maybe we should expect to see more filming in the lobby. But dude, I'll tell you something, man. If you're in the lobby of a hospital and you whip out your phone, start filming people like, look at these people. You're going to get hit. Yeah, you know, it's not nice. I'm not. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:37 But I mean, someone's going to hit you. They're going to be like, yo, what are you doing? We're in a hospital, man. Yeah. And let alone going into it. But then there's also HIPAA. You can't like, what does that stand for? health information privacy portability act or something there you go yeah the doctors can't do it but we did get this doctor at what was this like Elmhurst hospital in
Starting point is 00:11:55 New York yeah and she went around filming inside the hospital showing how bad it is and it's it's pretty bad and then she's basically saying we don't have what we need. The governor is wrong. People are wearing trash bags. Ah. Yeah. Yup. Because it's getting bad. Yeah, it is.
Starting point is 00:12:11 And then we have this viral video. So this is, Ian Miles Chong tweeted this out. He said, this is really hard to watch. Please keep telling me to stop. Please keep telling me to stop overreacting whenever I post about the coronavirus. And it's this video where, I guess it's not going to play, but this this like she's an he's an rn i think yeah what does that mean registered registered nurse yeah she's driving and she's saying that she just had her first shift and she's like what what is this she's like two people like everyone's freaking out
Starting point is 00:12:38 they're rushing around they're i'm left with these two people who are like on ventilators dying so she she wasn't able to like be in touch with doctors because they're freaking slammed. And she was literally providing all of the cares for two people who are basically dying. Both of them on ventilators, I think. Yeah. That's a lot of people. Man. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:59 Critical mass. Yeah. We're reaching it soon. I kind of feel like what what more can like what do we do? You know, because like here's here's the thing, man. we even talk about what do we even say about this it's just getting worse and worse every day do we say the same thing every day do we come on and be like hey guys thanks for tuning in the world is ending again and it's worse than yesterday yes you know that's the show that's the show for tonight it was worse than it was well we were talking about it we're gonna watch uh the The Hunt. Yes, we're going to do something else.
Starting point is 00:13:25 We're going to watch The Hunt. Yes. And we're going to talk about it tomorrow. Yeah. We're going to review a movie tomorrow. Yeah. Switch things up a little bit. Yeah, man.
Starting point is 00:13:32 You know, for me especially, it's like I wake up every day and I read all of this news. Yeah. And then, you know, I was like, man, we should do a new show. We could talk about other things. And the war ends. Yeah. And I'm like, oh, man. And everything stops working.
Starting point is 00:13:47 Boo. Terrible timing. Because of this. Yeah. But I wonder, you know, I'm not going to be afraid to talk about what I'm about to talk about because I know a lot of people would refuse to do it. But is there a positive that comes out of all of this? There are many positives.
Starting point is 00:13:59 Well, it feels like we're going to bring our manufacturing back to America. That's good. That is one of the positives. That is a good thing. Yeah, let's listen to America. That's good. That is one of the positives. That is a good thing. Yeah, let's listen to it. Let's make this a positive segment. Instead of just talking about hospitals being overwhelmed with corpses. I started a list on Twitter of positives of this, and I came up with a really long list.
Starting point is 00:14:16 I need to go back and find it. Did anybody get offended? No. Everybody was like, oh, yeah, I thought of some. Yeah. Yeah, man. Manufacturing coming back is a good thing. Yes.
Starting point is 00:14:24 Spending time with your family is a good thing. You know what I'm reminded of? That meme of the political compass where every quadrant gets what they want. Yeah. What was it? The authoritarian left is happy that the corporations are collapsing. The libertarian left is happy that the environment is healing. The libertarian right is happy that the governments are collapsing.
Starting point is 00:14:43 And the authoritarian right is happy that borders are being closed. Everybody gets a little bit, right? I think a lot of people are going to start growing their own food also. Yeah, man. I hope they do. I think that's pretty huge. I mean, I've been saying it for years. Why do we have grass?
Starting point is 00:14:55 Right. What is grass good for? Rolling around in? No, but it's a default. Yeah, it was like a standard. Yes, what's there? It was who in the neighborhood has the nicest green grass. No, no, but where did that come from before that?
Starting point is 00:15:10 Like what's the root of this? Yeah, I don't know. No, it's because grass is just there. Yeah. Okay. So like I'm going to build a house, and you build a house, and you're surrounded by grass. And then you're like the grass is too tall, so you cut a path. And then someone's, you know, the grass is just.
Starting point is 00:15:22 Is grass an invasive species? Is that fair to say? I don't know. Probably the grass that we grow grass an invasive species is that fair to say i don't know probably the grass that we grow now kentucky bluegrass or whatever i'm having more fun talking about grass than i am talking about coronavirus permaculture we got what is that it's growing your own stuff yeah we just started recycling everything learning how to live off the land again yeah yeah it's like we've lost that as humans like if everything just stopped working as it kind of looks like it's gonna stop working everyone needs to learn how to handle their own stuff and throw their own stuff i had a really important i had an interesting idea for like a
Starting point is 00:15:56 fantasy theme for like a game or something okay where i was imagining how we're centralizing all of these different industries okay we've got major fracking hubs in like North Dakota area, oil pipelines and stuff like that. Then you've got China producing all the rare earths. And I'm thinking like if it's cheaper to have a shipping like vessel with all these cargo containers. So let me stop for a second. I'll explain. Skateboards. How are they made?
Starting point is 00:16:22 They chop a tree down in Canada, send the wood to China. The Chinese laborers turn it into a skateboard and send it back to California. And then it's sent over theboards. Right. How are they made? They chop a tree down in Canada, send the wood to China, the Chinese laborers turn it into a skateboard and send it back to California, and then it's sent over the U.S. That's insane. I know, it's crazy. We have rock maples in America we can cut down
Starting point is 00:16:34 and sustainably harvest and then make skateboards out of. Or make bamboo boards. Or yeah, or even bamboo boards, which they do. And they got a nice pop. They do, but they flop out real quick. Like they don't last as long.
Starting point is 00:16:47 That's true. They don't last as long. But you know, hey, hey, I'll take a sustainable board if it's bamboo, right? Exactly. That's where my head's at. I started thinking about this. Like if we're seriously going to take our wood and send it to China to make a skateboard, what would the future of this reality look like in 100 years?
Starting point is 00:17:03 And so I was thinking of a world where no one in the United States has any idea how to make anything electronic at all. Like if we went down this path. So you have regions that specialize specifically in one thing because it's cheaper. True. So it's like, you know, you have a company that says we need electronic, you know, component manufactured goes to china and then china has these weird like states that are just like the entire culture is making phones the entire culture is mining rare earths the entire culture is making skateboards making skateboards yeah so that's like a future that doesn't make sense and so now we're seeing everything kind
Starting point is 00:17:37 of flip back like the pendulum just crashed into the wall and it's swinging back the other way or got stuck there yeah that's what it feels like it just was like yeah and we're we're like waiting for it to continue back or something but nope nope we're just stuck here just chilling i think we're gonna have to start recognizing the there's there's there's two ways out of this we destroy the economy which results in lots of people dying yep or we slowly go back to work which results in lots of people dying. Yep. Or we slowly go back to work, which results in lots of people dying. Yeah. Great options.
Starting point is 00:18:08 Is there a third? There is not. Yeah, which do we have less deaths with? You know, what's going to be the better option? I feel like that would be the one, wherever less people die. There's nothing you can say because you'll get attacked no matter what. Yeah, from both sides. I can say very easily, I don't want people to die. Yeah, you can say that. Right. Go no matter what yeah from both sides i can say very easily i
Starting point is 00:18:25 don't want people to die yeah you can say that right go ahead and try to attack yeah so how are you going to prevent that are you going to prevent people committing suicide when they lose their job or are you going to prevent them no it's let's let's let's let's say a million new unemployment 3.3 3.3 let's not even talk about suicides i'm talking about people who lose their homes lose their food right you don't have resources you can't actually starve yeah they could actually i'm talking about catch coronavirus and they're not getting the nutrients and then it's like even if they were healthy they don't even have the nutrients for their body to like create anything to fight it it's like this it's a delicate situation we're in right now yep so trump says the economy's got to get started and
Starting point is 00:19:03 here's what i've been thinking he's a trade guy right, right? He's not a PhD economist or anything like that. But he knows trade. So he's looking at this from a trade perspective. The doctors are looking from a health perspective, but neither understands each other. It is a fact. If the economy tanks, we don't get it back. And it will be worse. Because then without a working economy, there are no supplies, there is no technology, there is no cure cure and then the coronavirus comes in right afterwards yeah so what do we do do we open it back up and then just be like well then people are going to die well i mean fauci said it's cyclical it's coming around it's going to be it's not going away you know the people that i mean it's it's you know it's spreading in the in the warm places of earth where it's supposed
Starting point is 00:19:43 to be summer and there's they were like you were trying to see if it was like, well, maybe the heat would kill it off. But it's spreading. I think we're going to have to realize that we've grown our generation or degeneration into this position where we think death isn't a thing that happens. Right. There was a period like we talked about the other day like i was talking about how i went to glenn beck's studio and he had this newspaper on the wall all these old papers and i was reading one where it was like a dude was outside of a bar smoking and then some guy walked up and just blasted him in the chest
Starting point is 00:20:15 you know that's pistol and but no these things happen today go to chicago man that people pull out guns and they shoot it yeah so i think you know maybe we've come to a point where we've put ourselves in this bubble that's so secure we're now like we we've we've we're gonna burn ourselves down because we refuse to accept that hey man look pandemics and viruses happen and they hurt people you know we want to mitigate that for sure save as many lives as possible but shutting down the entire economy because now the u.s is the has the most infected people on the planet yeah it's like what 83 000 and if we if we kick start the economy back up that's going to jump it's going to go nuts
Starting point is 00:20:56 and we're and what are they estimating like on the high end six or seven million dead yeah out of 327 million i have heard this number yeah the low end it's like 1.2 it's at least a million that's insane whatever we do like you got to realize man 9-11 was you know around 3 000 people and that was a horrifying shock to this nation yeah and now we're already at a thousand which means in another week this could be more deaths than 9-11 it's not the same i understand but in many ways it's in many ways not every way but it could be worse we don't really have a comparison anymore the last thing like this that happened was a hundred years ago yeah and we just we have no frame of reference life's never been that hard for us are we going to return to a pragmatic, stoic world? Probably.
Starting point is 00:21:49 People are going to just be like, sometimes people die. Get back to work. I mean, it's, yeah, people are in their comfortable bubble, and everybody's bubble's popping. You know, we're realizing we're all humans that are susceptible, no matter who you are. It doesn't matter who you are. You could be rich. Rich people are getting it. They're mostly getting it yeah because they fly around all the time and they're more likely to be infected that's true yeah you're right yeah but there are homeless
Starting point is 00:22:13 people getting their young people getting it we're hearing more and more stories about young people getting it that's the point everyone is susceptible everybody we're all humans we're all whoever you are your bubble if you're comfortable and you think death can't catch you you are in let me tell you something new york yeah new york city had uh or i think new york state i'm sorry 100 deaths in the past 24 hours so everybody's been saying the flu is worse the flu is worse all right according to the cdc from october to to February, we had 12,000 deaths. That comes out to just about four deaths per hour in the U.S. New York alone in one day had four deaths per hour. That's just one state.
Starting point is 00:22:53 So there we go. New York has just surpassed the national numbers for the low-end estimate for the CDC on flu deaths. So it is going to get worse. And if we do open up the economy, then, well, what do you think is going to happen? It's going to shoot up more. It's going to get worse and if we do open up the economy then well what do you think's going to happen it's going to shoot up more it's going to be a wave i mean they keep saying that well we're testing more now so you're going to see a spike don't don't fear the spike we're we're testing more yeah but our number of deaths are going up as well yeah right so is this just the end no is there any way out of this i mean what's what's the percentage
Starting point is 00:23:26 of people it's killing you know in the u.s actually low relative the rest of the world okay we got good hospitals man as much people a lot of activists would argue we don't i think it's around like between like 0.8 and like 1.5 so the well i mean you can look at the number right there like the death percentage is low you know so low. You know, so when you don't see it, when it's not in your face, you see all these numbers, and it's like we can talk about these numbers, but it's not tangible because I don't see it. And I don't know anybody who has it, so I'm not – it's hard to like even talk about it you know with such a solid you know a solid uh statement on it because i don't know i don't know yeah that's uh it's the world's definitely scary and i i know i'm scared and i think that that is kind of where
Starting point is 00:24:20 everyone's at everyone's everyone's afraid it doesn't it doesn't matter who you are you know it's like a certain degree. Well, yeah, exactly. Some people want to watch the world burn. Yeah. Sure. There are a lot of jokers out there, man. Yeah, that's true.
Starting point is 00:24:32 Laughing about it. Encouraging the worst. They're going to laugh about it until the person they love catches it. Nah, there was a lady who went into a store and started coughing. And this is not too far from here. Started coughing on all the produce.
Starting point is 00:24:44 And they had to just dump it all and she was like laughing so it was funny there are people licking toilets to think it's funny there are people who are licking deodorant they think it's funny people are spitting on nurses and doctors when they go out in their scrubs people are awful whoa yeah where's that story at it's all over the place it's happening in india it's happening here in the u.s oh that's right And like doctors are getting kicked out of their houses because they are being evicted. Yeah. And there was that paramedic who was evicted in the U.K. by a lady who by his landlady who texted him because she didn't want coronavirus.
Starting point is 00:25:14 I'll tell you what, man. This morning when I was looking at the news, when I was listening to the bickering between the political parties, I have never been more pessimistic about our chances here never do you know what happened in venezuela and when what are you just like over the past several years no i don't know we got to print more money and you and give that so they have a bunch of unemployment right and they think they can just print money to buy their way out of their problems in venezuela yeah okay and and this happens in socialist countries cause it doesn't work. They start dumping money.
Starting point is 00:25:47 And then all of a sudden I went to Venezuela, man, I had stacks of cash and it was like this big, we had a garbage bag full of, full of Venezuelan bills. It was, uh, it was the,
Starting point is 00:26:00 it's called the Boulevard. I think it was. And, uh, you couldn't do anything with it. Like this big bag of, like, I think I had 100 at the time. This is crazy, too. At the time when I went, a stack like this big was 100 bucks.
Starting point is 00:26:13 The equivalent. Okay. And so I brought it back and I'm like, boom, on a table. I'm like, bling, bling. And we all started laughing. Because it's like, it's worthless. Nothing. Well, no.
Starting point is 00:26:21 It was like, worth shy of 100 bucks. Okay, it's got value, but like this massive stack of cash. And so they were like, what are we going to do with this nobody wants anything from venezuela and it's because they just started printing money yeah that's that's what we're doing right now that's what the stimulus package is right print money what do we have like six trillion dollars now the the debt was already really high and now they're printing all this money it's like it's we're gonna see i'm worried we're gonnaaway inflation. Yeah, I'm a little bit worried about that as well. Yep.
Starting point is 00:26:47 So let's let's do this. Let's let's take a look at let's see if we got this. All right. Check this out. The cost of household staples, milk, eggs and bread skyrocket by up to 30 percent as panic buying leaves retailers grappling with supply shortages. I'm going to come back to this. But we have this story from The New York Times. panic buying leaves retailers grappling with supply shortages. I'm going to come back to this,
Starting point is 00:27:09 but we have this story from the New York Times, frequently asked questions on stimulus checks, unemployment, and the coronavirus bill. In the short term, I have good news. Apparently, according to the New York Times, you don't got to do anything. You're just going to get a check. It's going to show up. Oh, they're not making us pay it back? No, no, it's a stimulus. I. Meaning they just give you the money. Okay. So when it comes to the stimulus, what they basically say is that you don't even have to, let me see if I can pull this up. Would I have to apply to receive payment? No. If the Internal Revenue Service already has your bank account information, it would transfer the money to you via direct deposit based on the recent income tax figures it already has. So if you already filed your taxes for this year, it'll use 2019. If you haven't, it'll use 2018.
Starting point is 00:27:50 You're just going to wake up one day with money in the bank. That's good in the short term, right? You can go to the store, you can order on Amazon, you can get what you need to get. Here's a problem, man. This solves nothing. I got no beef with the people trying to do the stimulus, but all the restaurants and all the retail shops that are out of business right now that are shut down or furloughed or whatever. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:11 A stimulus isn't going to put anything into that. What about rent? My rent was 1200 bucks a month in New York. It's like. Yeah, dude. Yeah, dude. Okay. It's a bandaid.
Starting point is 00:28:19 So. No, it's enough to pay rent. No, no, listen, man. And nothing else. It's barely a bandaid. It's not. It's not even a bandaid. This will, man. Nothing else. It's barely a bandaid. It's not. It's not even a bandaid. This will for in the short term.
Starting point is 00:28:28 It's a kiss on the boo boo. Yeah. Yeah. It'll feel better soon. No, no, but there's nothing they can do. There's nothing they can do. Like, I'm not saying this as beef to the Republicans and the Democrats, you know, because I've been critical of the Democrats holding it up for a bit.
Starting point is 00:28:42 The Republicans then held it up for certain provisions. So we'll see a little back and forth. But the reality is if the business is shut down, where do you spend the money anyway? Yeah, there was there was a really sad post. I saw a family pizza shop. They said, I'm sorry. You know, after 40 years, we are officially out of business because these these businesses are operating on very slim margins. Yeah, I think they're like only a few percentage points. they were it was a small piece of that was not you know super wealthy they close those jobs are gone this is why it bothers me to see people say oh it's just big corporations right help the little dude i mean but even the big corporations
Starting point is 00:29:22 i get it man boeing has a lot of employees. They have like 70,000 or whatever. They have thousands of employees. It's not even that. The airlines are basically operating at like no capacity. They're essentially shutting down. No one's traveling anyway. Congratulations.
Starting point is 00:29:35 You're going to get $1,200. What are you going to do with it? What are you going to buy? Milk, bread, and eggs, I guess. I'm sure online shops have shot through the roof, though. Online shops? Yeah, everyone has internet still. There's stuff to buy. And FedEx and UPS are essential
Starting point is 00:29:48 so they're still running. They're still, you know, people are doing their shopping online. Which is what they've done anyway. But what portion of the economy is like local bars and restaurants and retail shops? A lot. Massive portion. That's true. Walgreens, CVS, Rite Aid,
Starting point is 00:30:04 Duane Reade. Nothing. No more cash flow. Well, I mean, if this is seriously the way it's going to be, like humanity will look a lot different in about a year. We will adjust, but it's going to be weird. I think no matter what anyone tries to do, we are going like you're right. It's going to be a dramatic transformation.
Starting point is 00:30:23 We're going to be fine. And you know what you said uh yesterday i think it's we're going to see technological advances like we've never seen well i methodological advances this still it's going to happen so the way i'd explain it is we're going to see an application of technology not seen before yeah so one of the things that that's that of the things that we see a lot more of is the application of drive-thrus for even medical testing. Right. So now there's,
Starting point is 00:30:51 I saw reporting that Walgreens, for instance, you can pull up to Walgreens at the pharmacy drive-thru and say, milk, bread, and eggs, please. And they'll be like, here you are, sir. Why can't we do that now? That's a good question. And that's a methodology,
Starting point is 00:31:03 not a technology, but using a mobile app. Yeah. You can go on your phone and do milk, bread, eggs, boop. And then they can see on the app where you are. And then they see you pulling up and they grab the stuff and they go to the window and you pull up and they say, yeah, that's true. One of your videos earlier, you said like, um, you were talking about shops are still staying open because you can actually call them and be like, I would like to purchase this please. And they walk out and give it to you. Right. That's pretty cool. But think about how like Uber works. Okay. You press the app and then you're looking and you're watching
Starting point is 00:31:34 the little car come to you and you're like, and they're outside. And then, you know, to go outside because you see them pulling up. The inverse is true for curbside delivery. You go on the Best Buy app and you're going to be like, I need to buy this here laptop for work. And then you pull up and right before you get there, they see you pulling up on the street, just like you would see the driver. And they say, oh, he's pulling up. Okay, great.
Starting point is 00:31:53 And then they walk outside. And right when you walk, right when you pull up, they walk outside. Here you are, Mr. Crickler. And you wave and you turn around, you're gone. The future is here. So, but these are interesting changes. I'm talking about like
Starting point is 00:32:05 what we we were just watching that rick and morty episode where they're like the mad max world yeah i'm talking about like mad max changes well i mean didn't you say something i think yesterday ups is designing drones that that fly 160 miles an hour and are wind resistant yep and obviously to deliver packages i'm assuming all right man we need two things right now we need boston dynamics right these are the guys who make those robots that are like people crazy waves i demand i demand massive government funding all right full-on communist no i'm kidding but i i want them to develop that to the point where they can be fully autonomous. They can operate for 16 hours.
Starting point is 00:32:48 And then we need Neuralink. And then we create the world of surrogates where we have like an avatar version of ourselves. I almost watched that movie the other day. I got to watch it. I thought it was a fun movie. I like it. It's interesting. How cool would it be like a ghost in the shell kind of world where you have like this crazy robot body you could go skating and you wouldn't care because you're damaging your you know avatar instead of wouldn't be the same i want to feel the pain right you want to feel but you'd feel
Starting point is 00:33:13 the rush you'd be in you know i slammed my my my arm today like i got a huge knot right here and it feels so good right because 10 minutes 10 minutes afterwards i landed the trick that i was trying to land and I was like yes this is the pain that I earned but I'll throw this out there slamming feels good it does it hurts
Starting point is 00:33:35 and you're like oh it hurts and you're like yeah I think that's a high T thing as opposed to the low T guys I would say so, yeah. Okay. It hurts. I hate shinners.
Starting point is 00:33:47 I hate whacking my ankles. I do too, yeah. But like... But it feels so good. It converts into... I don't want to call it anger. It's fuel. But it is kind of anger.
Starting point is 00:33:55 Yes. But it is sort of like motivational fuel. Like, there's no one to be angry at. Right. What, are you going to be mad at the board?
Starting point is 00:34:02 Yes. People do that. I know. And they smash the board. And they throw the board and it's like, he't do anything but let's say they she all right boards of he so will there be skateboards in the new world it's a love it's a luxury item absolutely it's a luxury item man i mean people the skateboards were made on you know like in the backyards of people who couldn't surf and they they scrambled them all
Starting point is 00:34:26 together to surf on the roads so it's like sure it's not necessity but it'll be a thing so check this out let's let's let's loop this back to the the pending mad max world oh great when would they arrive treasury secretary steve mnuchin said he expects most people to get their payments within three weeks. As I said, what are you going to buy? You can still buy anything, basically. And when is rent due? Rent is due on April 1st. I actually found out from a buddy of mine in Arizona that they're saying all rent is pushed off. This puts a moratorium on evictions.
Starting point is 00:35:04 Oh, okay. But listen, listen man but yeah it's like rent isn't a magic vacuum i know yeah exactly it's like so it does but this is really what a lot of these activists think they they think it's like if if you know i i shouldn't have to pay a landlord that makes no sense it goes along with this naive thinking of for did you know that for every one homeless person we have two empty houses owned by banks and it's like and and invariably it's like well why don't we just put the homeless people in the houses and you're like how this works because houses need to be up you know upkept yeah you know they need maintenance there's electrical problems coding issues i'm sorry not coding issues uh wiring yeah And I mean, code as in like building code and law.
Starting point is 00:35:48 And if you just put someone in an empty house, are they going to eat the walls? Is it made of gingerbread? You can't just put a person in a house and expect to solve your problems. Not only that, the house slowly falls apart. Someone has to maintain it. There has to be value there. There can be an exchange through labor. I don't like the idea of investment properties i get it people are you know it's kind of like buying something and then waiting for it
Starting point is 00:36:09 to become more valuable when someone could actually use the house but if someone can't work to mow the lawn to fix the plumbing to fix the electrical then the house collapses and the people get hurt and then you have a stain and a hole in the community and then another homeless is still cycle so it's it's not something as simple as just snapping your fingers and saying you have a stain and a hole in the community. And then another homeless is still homeless. And it's a cycle. Yeah. So it's not something as simple as just snapping your fingers and saying you can do it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:30 So a lot of these people are saying, why don't we freeze rent? You realize that there are employees at these rental management companies. Yeah. And they have to get paid too. My mom is one of those people. Yeah, and the landlords, that's actually their jobs.
Starting point is 00:36:44 Yeah, that's their job. They manage all these properties. So if they're not getting rent, they're not getting paid. So it's like, who are you going to choose? But this is what I love about this argument from the activists. They're like, landlord isn't a job. And I'm like, when your toilet breaks, who do you call? I call my landlord and then he gets it fixed.
Starting point is 00:37:02 Not always. I pull up my sleeves. You have a slumlord. Fixing myself. That's that's right well sometimes you can't do that actually like you have to inform them and let them know otherwise they can come after you and claim you damaged something yeah but anyway the point is if you don't know how to fix it right if you have a slumlord yeah there are laws slumlords you know you can't do certain things yeah if your your electricity goes out if the power goes out if there's a problem with the the house, now it's, it's man, it's also the assumption of risk and liability. You could rent a house and then annihilate it and then laugh on
Starting point is 00:37:33 your way out. And then landlord's going to be like, yeah, you're taking the risk. You're taking the risk as a landlord. So it is a job, especially when you maintain multiple properties. More importantly, how many landlords are just like retirees who have like a cottage attachment or something and they rent it out and you're paying rent to them? What about, so I've actually rented property before from some retirees and they had a mortgage on a house that was, they could only afford it on their retirement budget by renting out part of the house. What happens if I was like, I can't pay you and you can't evict me? Then they're going to be like, well, then we're going to default on our mortgage.
Starting point is 00:38:13 Well, don't worry. They can't foreclose on you. Yeah. But when this is all over, then what? Yeah, exactly. Like what's going to happen to the, what happens to the banks? Like this ripples, the economy is intertwined. And so once rent comes due, a whole new wave of
Starting point is 00:38:27 industries are going to see what going out of business feels like, just like retail and stuff. Which brings me to that first thing I brought up. We are already seeing prices explode. What do you think is going to happen after the stimulus when they dump all this money into it? They're dumping all this money into the economy. Yeah, it's going to result in inflation. You can't just print money. Yeah, exactly. So look at this.
Starting point is 00:38:52 I say sale of eggs rose 44% compared to this time last year. Wholesale eggs are up 180%. Milk is up about 30%. What about bread? Do they talk about bread? Eggs, beef, milk, and other household staples are skyrocketing. But they're saying this is because of panic buying. I'm over here being the vegan like, meh.
Starting point is 00:39:08 Meh. Meh. This means nothing to me. I feel like a lot of people are going to be vegans soon. Oh, totally, dude. Because there's not going to be options. They can't get meat. Hold on. They won't be able to get it.
Starting point is 00:39:18 What did they buy from the store when they said to get emergency supplies? Toilet paper. No, no, no. Like the smart people bought food. I don't know. What did they get? Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and beans. Rice and food i don't know what rice and beans rice
Starting point is 00:39:25 and beans everybody there was a there was a story in the new york times which is really funny i mean it said it's a it's a it's a what do they call it a boon in the bean industry bullish on beans no for real man i know the new york times wrote it's like the bean industry is exploding right now the demand is through the roof beans i love my beans everybody does these are great they're in chili you can make you got black bean burgers you got beans and rice that's it that's a global staple yep and you got baked beans baked beans for breakfast you know put some tomatoes and some have a have a british yeah british breakfast british breakfast i love it yeah mushrooms baked beans tomato slices yeah some blood pudding not that
Starting point is 00:40:06 oh yeah dude no thanks it's you like it you like blood yeah it's like a sausage patty whatever i don't know it's like i eat it all the time it's like a british thing yeah but the funny thing is so earlier today i was trying to get egg substitute because we want to be able to bake right so for all you're watching if we want to make like a bread or like pancakes or something, I can't put eggs in the closet. You got to go to the store to get eggs. And I was like, well, that's fine.
Starting point is 00:40:31 Is there something I can buy that's like an egg substitute that lasts longer? It's vegan. Boom. The egg. So it's not about the substitute. It's about longevity.
Starting point is 00:40:40 Yeah. So there's like powdered eggs. But I was looking for something that can last for a long time that we could put in the closet. And it's like a chickpea ground thing you mix a little bit of water and it works for baking for eggs yeah it does so i think i've i've had that stuff before i'm not i'm good it works i will uh make the assumption you're being a bit facetious when you say everyone will be vegan yeah but boy is the consumption of meat gonna go down yeah yeah
Starting point is 00:41:04 it's gonna be definitely was you know but i i do think that more people it's not it's not that they're not they're gonna choose it's just because they have no choice there's gonna be no meat available there's gonna be no eggs there's no price it's gonna be it's gonna be expensive yeah and it's gonna go back to you know 100 years ago when it was a rich man's thing to to eat meat all the time because it was expensive, because it wasn't readily available in every single store everywhere that it was an easy thing to get access to, you know? I got to be pessimistic right now.
Starting point is 00:41:34 Oh, man. Again. Again. Is it possible for us to even stop this thing? Yeah. The coronavirus? It's not killing everybody. That's because we've shut the economy down.
Starting point is 00:41:44 But it wasn't killing everyone anyway before we did that, right? No, no, no, no, no. Right. Yeah. The coronavirus? It's not killing everybody. That's because we've shut the economy down. But it wasn't killing everyone anyway before we did that, right? No, no, no, no, no, no. Right. I'm not saying every human's going to die. Okay. I'm saying, I mean, the mortality rate could be like 15%. I know. Is it possible to even stop it? If they're saying it's going to be two years of us locking down, will that, will we even serve, will our economy even survive if that's the case it'll adapt maybe yeah humans adapt i don't know man it's it's a scary we're we're it feels like we're standing on a cliff and i'm just like looking down like and i'm turned around and like everyone's just charging towards me it's like oh this is where we're gonna go down this cliff they so
Starting point is 00:42:22 the senate passes this two2 trillion thing. Yeah. And all of a sudden now, what do we hear? Why don't we get universal health care? We were able to pull $2 trillion out of thin air, right? Not realizing the damage that will come with rapidly injecting all that money from the money machine. That's what no one really wants to think about. What happens after everything? They're only worried about right now.
Starting point is 00:42:46 What about right now? It's like, okay, well, you have to think about the consequences of everything that happens. No one does, ever. No one does. They think about the first... This is the way I always explain it.
Starting point is 00:42:58 I was playing chess since I was a little kid. And especially as both of us, we play Magic. We're always thinking about, if I do this, what might they do? Yeah. And if they do that, what might I do in response?
Starting point is 00:43:08 Yeah. Most people don't think that far. They're like, you know, it's like, they'll be, imagine someone's playing poker and they go, Oh,
Starting point is 00:43:14 I have two aces. I'm all in. And you're like, I have three twos. And they go, Oh, I didn't think about the possibility of someone having three twos.
Starting point is 00:43:23 Yeah. You don't, you know, it's like you get two aces and you don't pay attention to what's on the board. And so you're laughing. And then, you know, two twos are there. And the guy goes, oh, I have one two that gives me three twos. I win. I beat your pocket aces.
Starting point is 00:43:36 Yeah. They don't think. So, yeah. So I know what's going to happen. So you're right. They don't think past stage one. This is something that I complain about endlessly. But what's going to happen is they're going to inject the economy with cash bad things are going to happen you know they're just going to blame the other party we didn't do
Starting point is 00:43:53 enough we did not do enough i said last time done all this and they said in the 20s exactly so pelosi's uh nancy pelosi you know she's like basically the leader of the democrats is saying the next one's going to be bigger with more money. The next stimulus package. Yep. Because you have everyone on the right and the left saying it's not enough. Yeah. And I'm sitting here thinking like, I hear you, man.
Starting point is 00:44:18 Yeah. Because people lost their jobs overnight. Yeah. 3.3 million unemployment claims. Yeah. How are you going to pay rent? The economy's on fire. And so everyone everyone's like get me money now yeah i know where this goes i've been to these countries man and if and if we if we do a 2 trillion stimulus on top of the past two so i
Starting point is 00:44:36 don't know i don't know the hard number as i heard someone mentioned 6 million at one point but if pelosi's got a 2.5 trillion and it's just like let's just dump money into the sewer, is that really going to solve anyone's problems? But what is? It's like you were saying. It's a kiss on a boo-boo. It helps a little bit. You're a little kid. You stub your toe.
Starting point is 00:44:57 There are some people that it's going to help for months. Right. But then there's people in the city that $1,200 is literally nothing. Right. I understand that. But I mean, in the short term, we're going to be sitting back being like, whew, thank heavens. And then a year from now, people are going to be like, milk costs $10. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:22 So I guess the bigger issue, though, mit and harvard have both said two years i hope they're wrong i hope so too because the bigger question is if we're if we're deluding ourselves that we can get a handle on this thing yeah then all we're doing is making things worse before it gets even worse but i don't know man i here's here's the issue nobody wants to be the person who's going to say open the floodgates and then take the responsibility for everyone dying. Nobody would do it. This is such a rock and a hard place. There is no right answer.
Starting point is 00:45:51 There's just like people are going to get hurt. Yep. I don't know what to do. So which which option gives us less deaths? That's that's what everyone's trying to figure out. Yeah. And so it's funny because when Trump trump and republicans and other people come out and say we need to get this the economy you know economy started as soon as possible
Starting point is 00:46:09 the other side just accuses them of trying to sacrifice people for corporate profit it's such a it's such a a naive and childish way of viewing the world they're not looking at it like corporate profit to line our pockets what are you joking? Rich people can't buy anything if there's nothing to buy. Nobody wants to just have the money because worthless money, you know. You can't eat money. You can't. Right. And what people really want is access to labor. That's the true value of money for the most part, resources and labor. And if nobody's working, why would it matter? So that's what's really happening. It's like, listen, man, if the economy isn't moving,
Starting point is 00:46:47 supplies won't be delivered to these hospitals and people will die anyway. Not only that, if people can't eat or live, they die. The economy has to keep moving. So what do you think? Should Trump open it up in two weeks, April 12th, Easter? It sounds like he's going, he's like, you know what? We need to get the economy going. I'm going to open it up.
Starting point is 00:47:10 And people already hate him anyway. So what's the difference? Yeah, he can be that person. Well, you either love him or you hate him. But it's like, you know what, though? At this point, his approval rating is higher than it's ever been. It's in the aggregate. He's shattered the record.
Starting point is 00:47:27 And when it comes to coronavirus, most Americans support him. This is unheard of for his presidency. Right. So if he says, let's open it up. He did. And the polls skyrocketed. Dude, let me see if I can pull something up. Okay.
Starting point is 00:47:44 Yeah, it's going to be interesting. It feels like he knows what needs to happen because we need to get it going. We need to get the economy. It went up even more. What, since you saw? Since I talked about it earlier today. Oh. Check this out.
Starting point is 00:47:57 What are the two different numbers? See this huge spike? Boom. Oh, I see. Okay. 47.1. When I first recorded my segment earlier today, I was at 47. So it even went up just a little bit. Now, his disapproval rate is 49.6.
Starting point is 00:48:11 But take a look at where his disapproval was throughout his presidency. See this huge spike? Yeah. What happened in the past couple of days that led to a huge, huge spike? Yeah. Well, to be fair, is a big spike. When we look at the past few polls, they're still negative. And the positive ones are like Gallup Emerson. But yeah, Trump in the aggregate over the past few days has skyrocketed around the same time he said, I'm going to get you back to work. That's what I think we want. I think we know what the people want to do. It's not just that his approval rating is on a variety of factors. But if we look specifically at job approval on coronavirus, this is where it's like, OK, I think the people want Trump to do his thing. It's not going to
Starting point is 00:48:51 load, is it? The site is ridiculous. I like real clear politics, but yeah, it can be. Check this out. Gallup has him plus 22. His approval rating on the coronavirus is 49.6 and disapproval is 45. He's got the majority of Americans on his side for this one right now. Look at this. Fox from the 21st to the 24th plus 5. Well, I'm pretty sure that's around the time
Starting point is 00:49:16 period he's been talking about getting people back to work, right? And seeing the media twist everything and everyone has no time on their hands but to watch the media and see that it's all just a bunch of hogwash. It's like, okay, we see what's happening. We are watching Trump. Now you're telling this. It's like, alright, well I guess what you've been saying to me is wrong. And he's saying some stuff I agree with.
Starting point is 00:49:40 That's why they're freaking out. Stay alive, Biden. You're our only hope. with. That's why they're freaking out. This is what I was talking about on my main channel. Stay alive, Biden. Stay alive, Biden. You're our only hope. He's not your only hope. So the main point I was making earlier today is that Trump's doing these daily press briefings and his polls are just skyrocketing.
Starting point is 00:49:57 Look at that spike. That is just a boom. Unsubstantiated hope. It's like, get out of here. This is crazy. I saw this huge spike. Donald Trump comes out and says, we're going to get you back to work. We have potential treatments. We're working on this. And the American people are clapping.
Starting point is 00:50:11 Not everybody, but a lot of people. And you were right. Because nobody's working, they're sitting at home watching TV. Exactly. And they see the media lie. And they see Trump say, I'm working for you. And people are starting to go, I like that. And they're watching the media change and they see trump say i'm working for you and people are starting to go i like that and they're watching the media change throughout the days they go one way they go the other way
Starting point is 00:50:31 they go the other way and then people are like here's what we're paying attention you want to know what my favorite is what man this really really pissed me off when uh this is why i did the segment i did earlier today on my main channel about the media's freaking out. Yeah. The New York Times wrote about the conundrum the media faces with Trump being a liar. They said that he encouraged unproven drugs, which led to an Arizona man dying. God, that whole thing is so stupid. He never encouraged anyone to take anything. No. But here's the thing.
Starting point is 00:51:01 I know. Andrew Cuomo did too. And beyond this, Andrew Cuomo of new york yeah said we're going into clinical trials for this yeah he was basically saying exactly the same thing that trump did and what the new york times write about cuomo he's a hero he's he's he's the politician of the moment who's bringing empathy and strength into his press conferences yeah yep i was i was livid man it's stark it. He's just a different version of Trump to me. Well, sure.
Starting point is 00:51:27 Okay, but the story is like you can clearly see them saying Trump is wrong to say this is a good idea and then turning around and saying Cuomo is a hero for suggesting this idea. Well, they didn't say that. That's a bit much. They didn't say it like that. They didn't specifically say Cuomo encouraged this drug. What a good person and trump literally said the exact same thing yes right they're testing this drug and it's
Starting point is 00:51:50 promising responses to it and then when the guy drank when the guy put a spoonful of fish cleaner in his you drank it they blamed trump instead of the media or cuomo yeah exactly so people are watching actually and you know if you if you look through the reports it wasn't actually what trump was saying she was like in the interview with this with the woman that survived it but her husband passed away she was saying that she saw his press press the you know the press conference and then it was reported in the media multiple times over and over and over again and that's when she was like, oh. They found information online.
Starting point is 00:52:27 Interesting. Right. She then made the connection, you know, because Trump, it was a medicinal thing. Then they just kept saying the word over and over again. Well, Trump's got this. He's saying that there's this drug, you know, blah, blah, blah. And there's chances. So it's like they just keep repeating it.
Starting point is 00:52:42 And that's where she got it from. You know what I think insulated me from the orange man bad trump derangement syndrome is that i was covering a lot of what obama was doing when he was doing it okay and so when all of a sudden trump started doing things that weren't as bad or were similar i was like i'm confused why are you angry yeah everyone is praising obama you voted for this guy for that guy twice he's the one who built those cages in like you know homestead florida or whatever yeah he's the one who sent the drones overseas i'm not saying trump is good i'm saying like i don't understand why you're mad all of a sudden right i thought you guys were for this stuff right and so it was like confusing me i'm like what it's really crazy herd mentality it's it's it's it's really crazy to me that
Starting point is 00:53:22 i'm i'm grateful that this can exist yeah like that we can sit here and be like can you seriously name you know the average person can't name a single thing they don't like about the president other than he's a potty mouth and he's like a gross dude or something or that he's a liar okay but what does he lied about i don't know he lies about silly things for sure true he like says the the quiet part loud and the loud part quiet. Yeah, but I've actually since started following him on Twitter, and he's like a professional troll. He is.
Starting point is 00:53:53 I swear he knows what he's doing. He does. He's got a push button. Of course he does. Exactly. He's putting this stuff out going, ha-ha, they're going to eat this up, and they're going to be distracted by it.
Starting point is 00:54:04 Kafefe. Kafefe, yeah, exactly. After that,. And they're going to be distracted by it. Covfefe. Covfefe, yeah, exactly. After that, when the media went nuts, he rolled into it. He knows what he's doing. He knows. Yeah, it's true. There's different tweets. He's got his serious tweets, and then he's like, I'm totally messing with you tweets.
Starting point is 00:54:18 I'm sitting on the toilet. And those are always the ones that the media hits up. They're like, whoa, look what he said this time. And it's like, of course you logged on to that one. Here's the thing about him. He's done some bad stuff. He's gotten a lot of criticism for the easy go-tos, missile strike in Syria, weapons in Saudi Arabia.
Starting point is 00:54:35 And the environmental changes. Removing environmental regulations. And so there's things to criticize the guy for, but when I look to any other president, like Obama and the Dakota Access Pipeline, and so there's things to criticize the guy for but when i look to any other president like obama and the dakota access pipeline like nobody he was doing the same thing man yeah they called him the the deporter in chief i don't care i'm ambivalent it's like it's the same old same old yeah but every president's gonna abuse their power a little bit well no it's just yes they do what
Starting point is 00:55:03 they think i'm sure they will i don't think they're doing it because they're evil like mustache twirling i think they're like i gotta do this for the for the good of the country this is the thing that must be done like i think i think that lobbyists paid me way a lot of money that i need to like follow through on the promise but but everyone's the hero of their own story they justify it in their minds that's true they're like this is the right thing to do it makes sense sense. Yes. So when it comes to Trump, you have this extreme irrational hatred, Trump derangement syndrome, Trump anxiety disorder, whatever you want to call it. The actual physicians call it Trump anxiety disorder. There are real reasons to criticize the guy and there are real reasons to want to vote for someone else. But what you see in the media is so thick.
Starting point is 00:55:41 It's like the man. Yeah, but I'd rather have someone with with uh some brains instead of no brains but what oh right and he just to hear like he's checked out a long time ago to hear my hippie friends just don't know like my friends right because like i can't vote for biden man and i'm like who you're gonna vote for and they're. And I'm like, who are you going to vote for? And they're like, Trump, I guess. I'm like, what? What is happening? He's not talking about me, by the way.
Starting point is 00:56:10 Not you, no. Just saying. So the average person, what really bothers me about the whole thing is that Joe Biden, for instance, was just credibly accused. I don't know if you heard this. I watched your video, yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:23 He was credibly accused. And then I saw all the videos that you brought up about all how cringy he is with women. Cringy? Dude. Oh, gosh. Gropey? Gropey? Yes. Which is cringy. Yeah. Oh, man. Here we are, planning
Starting point is 00:56:38 a show that we, like, originally were talking about the silliness of Sonic the Hedgehog. Right. And we're having a blast with it. And we got 200,000 views. I'm like, dude, this is awesome. You know what? The one rule he gave me, he was like, yo, we're going to do the show. It's going to be awesome.
Starting point is 00:56:51 I've got one rule. We're not allowed to say the word Democrat or Republican. And I was like, yes, because I know nothing about politics. And I was like, I don't believe in any of that. I don't think it's real. But here's the thing. Look where we are. It's true.
Starting point is 00:57:04 And I said, we will talk a little bit about politics. Like, it'll pop up. even any of that i don't think it's real but here's the thing look where we are it's true and i said we will talk a little bit about politics like it'll pop up but we'll avoid saying the d and the r word because we want to make this more about like what regular people are up to what's fun and now here we are and the world has just like dude you hit the nail on the head we're all stuck at home we're forced to watch this stuff there's no other news and we are seeing all of the lies in real time and now people in the polls are seeing it too they're like trump didn't tell anybody to eat fish cleaner trump's a lot like obama so so so here's the thing and this has been like a meme actually i'm not gonna the meme i was gonna bring up is that like you know people like to go up to
Starting point is 00:57:41 random people and say why do you hate trump and they can't give you a reason yeah but here's the better point people who are online on say like youtube or twitter or social media who are active and searching for the news okay we'll find we'll gravitate towards honest conversations joe rogan you know uh dave rubin jordan peterson and someone like uh you and me perhaps i'm not i don't i don Perhaps. I don't need to mention myself. There are people who exist who do a great job of it. No, no, that's what I'm here for. I got you, bro.
Starting point is 00:58:09 There you go. Thanks, buddy. I got you. Honest conversations. With Soy Jesus. Yes. So here's the thing. If you're somebody
Starting point is 00:58:16 who cares about the news and you read a bunch of stories and you're like, whoa, I can't believe that's happening. And then you turn on a show like ours and we say a variety of like, here's what the media claimed. Here's what actually happened. Here are the polls. You're like, whoa, I can't believe it's happening. And then you turn on a show like ours and we say a variety of like, here's what the media claimed. Here's what actually happened. Here are the polls.
Starting point is 00:58:28 You're like, it's confirmation bias, but because the people who read the news and know what happened, like how many, how many times have we got super chats or comments where they corrected us? That's true. And I told us here, it's because everybody watching and, and, and us are people who are actively paying attention to the news. Yeah. These are my people. Not everybody. I don't want to say everybody because I know a lot of people are like, you know, after I get off work, I like to turn your show on because I trust you or something like that.
Starting point is 00:58:53 Silly. But what about the other side? The people who just blindly hate Trump? You can dislike him. You can criticize him. I'm fairly ambivalent. I think he's a really funny guy. I got to be honest.
Starting point is 00:59:02 But do your own research. But when they don't. On all things, do your own research. But these people don't do research that enough i know they turn on msnbc herd mentality they turn on msnbc and they sit back and they love it so i don't like uh i'm not a big fan of hannity or laura ingram i don't watch any but i like tucker carlson you know why he's right. I don't always agree with his opinions, but he has on opposition. Right. And he's in front of this.
Starting point is 00:59:30 Like, he was talking about this stuff in January. Yeah. And the other hosts weren't so much. They tend to be kind of like, you know, bombastic tribalist pundits. I'm not trying to, you know, give beef to them necessarily, but I don't like Rachel Maddow either. Yeah. I don't like MSNBC. I've seen so much of her stuff float around
Starting point is 00:59:47 and it's always just ridiculous. Oh, she's insane. She seems pretty crazy. She's so bonkers. She really does seem pretty crazy. I gotta say, it is unfair of me to compare Hannity and Laura Ingram to Rachel Maddow. That is not fair at all.
Starting point is 01:00:01 Oh, okay. Because Hannity and Laura are bomb are bombastic see these these names don't mean anything to me oh they're pundits right yeah i don't i i mean i i get that i just i i don't know i don't know anything about these people you know it's like you don't have to it's the media and i don't trust the media you know i like to find out the information myself read the actual scientific proof you know that's the kind of person I am. So here's the thing. Like I did, I did a segment on this last year. It's not about just reading a news source. It's about reading it and then finding their source and verifying the information. And there was one story, I can't remember what it was about, it was about Ocasio-Cortez. And it was a
Starting point is 01:00:39 news article that referenced a tweet that referenced an activist blog that referenced an article and i had to dig down to find the source and of course it was fake news so it's like a completely media game of telephone yep where they slowly change the story to finally gets to the media and it's like they're talking about a purple elevator yeah and you start out talking about like a bathtub or something don't even get me started man okay wait wait people love your rants rant tim go for it yeah who wants a story everybody probably everybody wants a this guy from nbc because i got invited to the white house he wrote a story about the people who were invited to the white house and because the narrative had to be specifically that the only people invited are fringe wackos. This activist who works for NBC,
Starting point is 01:01:25 who purports to be a journalist, wrote that Tim Pool, comma, who pushed the Seth Rich conspiracy theory and then linked to an activist blog post that showed a clip of me out of context and then used that as evidence. And then all of a sudden, dozens of other outlets started just copying and pasting.
Starting point is 01:01:43 And so I started hitting them up saying like getting clicks yeah man oh it's working let's it's just it's just cheap plagiarism it's it's journalism that's what's called churn is that yes just churning it out so yep one outlet saw nbc and then just copied their article and rewrote it and then nbc the guy from nbc removed the the evidence of what of what it was actually because they all started sourcing each other. It's called, the guy from XKCD calls it cytogenesis, kind of, where it's this phenomenon on Wikipedia where someone will see fake news and then write a Wikipedia article and cite fake news. Oh, cite.
Starting point is 01:02:17 I was like, how cytogenesis? And then someone from BuzzFeed will see it in Wikipedia and then write, on Wikipedia, they claim this. And then someone from Deadline will write, it's a known fact that this. And then someone on Wikipedia will say, this source you've used is bunk. Can you give me a better source? And I'll say, yes, here's Deadline. It's cytogenesis.
Starting point is 01:02:36 It happens all the time. So this guy writes a fake story. And then here's the best part. The Today Show aired it with a big old picture of me on NBC. They showed a big old picture of my face and says, this is a guy who's been pushing the Seth Rich conspiracy theories. Never happened. Dude, I don't remember that.
Starting point is 01:02:53 I've never pushed the Seth Rich conspiracy theory stuff. I was always skeptical. I always said, let's be real. Stuff like this never happens. You know, the likelihood this is real. It was around the time that Kim.com claimed he had evidence that Seth Rich was the WikiLeaks source. And I said, well, he's saying it. And Fox News just came up with a story confirming that they found evidence of this. I'll give it a 68% chance. Come on, guys, let's be real. Stuff like this never turns out to be true.
Starting point is 01:03:20 What did they take? A snippet of me being like, I don't know, I'll give it a 68% chance. And then claim Tim Pool pushes the conspiracy theory by saying the Fox News story, which was definitively posted and they retracted it later. Of course it was. Well, I thought it was real. A lot of people thought it was real and they retracted it. Yeah, there was an investigator guy. And it's like, not only that, it's like, like dude i was in my living room back when i had like no youtube subscribers i had like you know 5 000 or whatever and i did a live stream and i was just someone asked me about it i'm like i don't know a whole lot about it but i saw this story wow yeah maybe and then once my channel did well they dug through all of my history and said boom tim pool's a conspiracy theorist boom we got him that's the media's game i'm like that's all they
Starting point is 01:04:03 got they're vultures. They are vultures. Well, the Wikipedia editors weren't having any of it. Like, someone went in and tried to add it, and then the editors were like, get this bunk up out at me. Actually, it was a huge debate. It was like... On your Wikipedia?
Starting point is 01:04:17 Whether or not I was a conspiracy theorist or not. And it's, like, so insane. The craziest thing to me is how they use that as a weapon against you. And so it's like if you go to any counterculture or there's a bunch of, I don't know, I guess counterculture is the easiest way to say it. Their Wikipedia pages are just loaded with complete BS. And so I've gone, there's a bunch of journalists who do like news organization stuff and like
Starting point is 01:04:43 conferences. And I've repeatedly said to them, why won't you call this out? Yeah. Give you an example. BuzzFeed wrote a story. Man dies at Popeye's and fight over a chicken sandwich. Never happened. They made it up because a story about two black men fighting the death over fried chicken
Starting point is 01:05:00 was clickbait. The real story. They were at Popeye's. A guy cut in line. Someone called him out. The guy said, take it outside. And when outside, he knifed him in the chest real quick and ran off. Nobody was fighting over a sandwich. It was senseless violence.
Starting point is 01:05:14 This stuff happens all the time. Dude. That was during the Popeye chicken sandwich craze? Technically. You think Popeye's paid them under the table for that? Well, that was a conspiracy theory. Oh, really? That Popeye's put out a statement specifically because they wanted the story to exist, that two men fought to the death over the sandwich. That's how good it was.
Starting point is 01:05:30 I'm not kidding. I'm not saying it's true, but there are people on social media believing that. I was just joking. I don't think that's true. You want to know what? No way. I got no problem saying this. I reached out to Ben Smith of BuzzFeed.
Starting point is 01:05:41 Okay. And I said, hey, this story is not real. And then he sent me a quote. The police saying they believe that this had something to do with the release of the Popeye's chicken sandwich. And I said, that doesn't prove it's real. Yeah, that put them in the restaurant at the same time. That was it.
Starting point is 01:05:55 Right. And I said to him, I'm vaguely remembering. I don't want to, you know, I mean, but I remember saying something to him. This was over Twitter that the dude's family came out and said nobody – his cousin was like, ain't nobody died over a chicken sandwich. This is BS. The media is lying. And they were lying. I know.
Starting point is 01:06:13 And didn't you tell me that they're not even that good? I didn't like it. I never tried it. I didn't like it. I like Chick-fil-A better. For obvious reasons. But he refused to correct it. The story is up to this day.
Starting point is 01:06:23 And so here's what I did. Because it still clicks. So NewsGuard. People click on it. NewsGuard is the service that I use. Yeah, yeah. Actually, we can pull it up. I can show you guys.
Starting point is 01:06:31 Yeah, let's look at it. So this thing right here, you'll see the check mark. Real clear politics. Gets green across the board, except they don't label their advertising really well. I mean, is that fair? Yeah, it's just white boxes. I mean, sure, whatever. Full nutrition panel or whatever. I mean, sure, whatever. It's like a full nutrition panel or whatever.
Starting point is 01:06:45 Maybe there's articles or whatever. Well, it's not like clearly different because it's like a white border. So it kind of flows in. You know what? Whatever. I mean, I could see why. Here, take a look at this. I use this as it's a sort of a credibility check for myself.
Starting point is 01:07:00 It's a shield for me that if you want to claim I'm being biased by using bad sources, I only use sources when they're certified by an organization that I find to be biased. NewsGuard's actually not that bad. But I got an email from them and they were like, you know, the trolls are trying to give us a bad rating. Whenever they give a news website a red exclamation point, these sites, not all of them, will encourage their readers to go and downrank news guard yeah seriously in the app store yeah dude and so i got an email saying because uh they were like you know you're like it was like a general email like supporters please go and help us and i was like okay and i gave
Starting point is 01:07:33 them a two out of five and i wrote it's because they give buzzfeed green check marks across the board except for the difference between like they say they don't handle the difference between opinion and responsibility or i'm sorry opinion andinion and news responsibly. I think they do. And I said they'll give the Daily Wire, which is Ben Shapiro's outlet, all X's because they wrote two or three bad stories. Because of a difference in opinion. Because of a difference in opinion. And then they'll give BuzzFeed green checkmarks across the board, even though BuzzFeed's literally made stuff up. The problem is these organizations by default believe BuzzFeed to be credible.
Starting point is 01:08:06 And so they use BuzzFeed to fact check other organizations. Oh, man. Right. When BuzzFeed's making stuff up. Exactly. And so here's what happens. They say the Washington Post is a good, credible source. Okay. So we don't need to actually. So here's what will happen. Let's say I wrote a story that said that fight over the chicken sandwich is fake news buzzfeed's
Starting point is 01:08:25 lying they'll go to buzzfeed and they'll say no buzzfeed says it's true tim pool is lying and they'll give me the x wow that's how it works with with the bias in these systems so you know buzzfeed and all these other and like the daily beast has written so much fake crap i know for i know for a fact because i was actually on the ground at several of these events they wrote about and I'm like, they made that up. They straight made stuff up. Yeah. And then I reach out to the news guard and I say, why won't you call them out? I reach out to people at the Online News Association. None of them will do anything. They don't care. And they know it. I reached out to the former editor-in-chief of BuzzFeed News personally. I know Ben. I've been to the BuzzFeed offices and hanging out with him.
Starting point is 01:09:08 I saw him on the way to Davos, the World Economic Forum years ago. We've talked. He's in one of my videos. And so I hit him up and said, you need to correct this. And he said no. Yeah, because the media isn't about getting the news out there, the real news. Nah, it's clicks. It's about getting people to their site
Starting point is 01:09:26 so that they can make more ad revenue. I'll clarify. I don't think he... It's been a while since we talked. He didn't directly say, I refuse to correct or anything. He just said, the police said it was related to it.
Starting point is 01:09:36 We're good. And the headline says... It sounds like a brush up. ...in a fight over... And basically saying no. And when I reached out to... So when I did that review for news guard yeah i responded to the email saying just to let you know you requested it i gave it to you
Starting point is 01:09:50 i gave you a two out of five and here's why they emailed me back saying i respect you know you know you've talked about us but i don't think it's fair and then i said i like you give media matters yeah green check marks across the board media matters i don't know what that is it's an activist organization that it's just basically if you're conservative or right-wing they'll lie about you my favorite and this was funny because wikipedia the wikipedia editors like wigged out on how insane it was media matters wrote that i pushed a conspiracy theory that ilhan omar married may have married her brother she's the she's a democratic congresswoman i did hear about this but what they showed on the page was me looking at the Star Tribune that said she may have married a man who may be her brother.
Starting point is 01:10:32 That was their reference? So here's the best part. They said Tim Pool falsely claimed that the Star Tribune claimed that Ilhan Omar may have married her brother. And they showed a picture of me with my face in the corner and the newspaper for the Star Tribune with the sentence i was reading i didn't falsely claim anything i read a sentence off the newspaper and you can literally see it on your screen and so somebody tried using the source from media matters saying timball's a conspiracy theorist on wikipedia and they were like i clicked that and they're claiming that a paper he read was a false attribution but they showed the paper he was reading yeah exactly that's how insane they are.
Starting point is 01:11:05 And they get green check marks as credible. Dude. That's NewsGuard. So why, I mean, you started by saying you use NewsGuard because you want to have your stuff checked, but it's clear to me that they are biased. Totally. There are some cats and dogs. So how do you know that it's even worth using them at all?
Starting point is 01:11:22 If NewsGuard wants to come to me and give me a red checkmark or whatever and accuse me, I'm going to laugh. I'm going to be like, why, bro? I only use sites you've approved. Oh, that's funny. Is that the only reason? Because it sounds like their checkmarks mean nothing. People like Media Matters using that smear against me, that's how they weaponize it.
Starting point is 01:11:48 They try to claim you're pushing a fake news website. It's like, don't look at me, man. If NewsGuard says it's good, I use it. So I used the Center for Immigration Studies as a source once. Okay. And a bunch of progressives started claiming I was using alt-right propaganda. And I'm just like, don't look at me, man. NewsGuard said they're certified factual and correct.
Starting point is 01:12:07 End of story. Don't care. Brush it off. The perfect scapegoat. It's not me. They approved it. It's true, though. I know. I don't know. I know exactly what I'm saying.
Starting point is 01:12:19 What were you saying? I think we should move to super chats. Yeah, we got into a ranty. But hey, it was better than just complaining about morgues again, right?

And it's made in America. Solid beanies. Beanies are coming. And the reason we know that it's meant to be is that not crazy? And it's made in America. Solid beanies. Beanies are coming.
Starting point is 01:13:05 And the reason we know that it's meant to be is that amidst the global crisis where we're not allowed to go out or do anything, it's nearby, only a few miles away. Literally, I could drive there. So we don't got to worry about travel. It's crazy. Like what? So meant to be. But we'll see. Beanie hype.

For the environment, even. I know. So I had a buddy who said that skateboarding, he quit quit skateboarding he said it was the most destructive thing on the planet
Starting point is 01:14:08 exaggeration but he's that's where he started telling me about how we cut down trees in canada send to china and then ship them back and it takes such an amazing amount of energy it's just so destructive for the environment he was like the amount of carbon those things pump out plus cutting the trees down he's like i can't do it and i was like why don't we just make the skateboards here yeah yeah you got that sweet cheap chinese labor man yeah but i think we should i'll pay more for a board if it's made in america yeah man lance says what if the only what if the only the npc dying i'm not quite sure what you meant sorry sev says tim and co can you please theorize and visualize our economy if permanently affected by the coronavirus whether by severity or duration.
Starting point is 01:14:46 This is one of the things that I was kind of thinking, like, if if we go into this two year period of on and off. Yeah. We'll see new businesses emerge that you've never even thought of. I can't even conceptualize. Yeah. There will be like, dude, we will have like lock up parties where it's like there will probably be warehouses where they're like come in for the month, man. We lock the doors. We got all the food you want. We party. We hang out. Yeah, that'd be cool. There will be and then there will be open up parties where it'll be like,
Starting point is 01:15:17 you know, where the shutdown ends on the first and then we have a major massive party. Stuff like that. That'd be crazy stuff. Huge black block parties. Yeah, because people get sick. I wouldn't want to go. Holly says, we should have American workforce wear respirators. If we have enough, Winter Walker says, Tim, at what point are you going to bug out?
Starting point is 01:15:40 What's your criteria for that decision? I don't know. The armed banditos roaming roaming the neighborhood maybe yeah yeah because we we could even do this show from the van we could get like a table and like it would not be as high quality you know but we can talk into microphones anywhere that's true it's true we Yeah, that's true. Live even. Onyxin says, do you think the crisis and the panic gun buying will have a lasting effect on those who didn't understand
Starting point is 01:16:10 the value of 2A or will it all revert? It will. You see that viral video of the gun store guy who was yelling? He's like, you first time gun buyers coming in here. You don't understand. You can't just get it. You gotta wait 10 days. Next time someone tries taking away your stuff, you'll fight back.
Starting point is 01:16:25 And I was like, woohoo. of these people in these urban centers who are scrambling to buy guns. Yeah. Yeah. Too bad. Too bad. You held your tongue and didn't care when all these politicians. Could you imagine what would have happened if they passed like a couple like it was last year they want to do the assault weapons ban would have banned like handguns and stuff.
Starting point is 01:16:42 Dude. People would be like, what do you mean? I can't own a handgun. Like, that's right. They're assault weapons. I don't know. Oh, that would have banned like handguns and stuff. Dude. People would be like, what do you mean I can't own a handgun? Like, that's right. They're assault weapons. I don't know. Oh, that would have woken them up. That would have thrown them for a loop.
Starting point is 01:16:50 And I'm sure they're already thrown for a loop. Yeah, for sure. Going to a gun store and the guy's like, no. Like, what do you mean no? It's like, here's the law. And they're like, but I don't understand. Well, then vote Republican. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:01 Yeah. I think like even like Joe Rogan's big on 2A, right? I imagine. I think he was saying something about he's like kind of a socialist. But when it comes to 2A, he's like. Yeah. Yeah, I think like even like Joe Rogan's big on 2A, right? I imagine. I think he was saying something about he's like kind of a socialist, but when it comes to 2A, he's like. But the reality is socialists tend to be pro 2A. Like, look, man. John Brown, gun club. Yeah, these revolutionary types, they want guns.
Starting point is 01:17:17 They don't like the idea of the government. It's these weird like resistance corporate Democrat type people who are like no one should be armed. And they would like vote for darth vader if you have to give them the chance only only us right so it feels like only the politicians only the government the celebrities chet says canada is continuing to lock down the quarantine act was just passed in parliament interesting the price is right review yo sup guys hope you're staying safe if you guys are gamers and if this gets worse for two years then i honestly want you to uh to apply tom clancy the division game series to this pandemic just my two cents i was just thinking maybe i should re-download the division two
Starting point is 01:17:53 yeah it's a fun game i've new dlc go back to new york yeah yeah i kind of want to play it now let's do it let's do it yeah we can live stream people would watch it. Who wants to see me and Tim play some Division 2? We could actually do the show while playing. That's true. We could be like... I'm half kidding. I'm only half kidding. Oh, fun.
Starting point is 01:18:16 Glenn says, We are basically on full lockdown in Nova Scotia, Canada. $1,000 fines for not social distancing. They are arresting people for not self-isolating wow i don't think people realize how bad it is like i think it's much worse than they're letting on absolutely i can say it a million times but hearing stories about people being found dead in their homes yep nobody knew a little bit i know yeah cs brown says apparently china's experiencing a huge increase in divorces related to COVID-19 forced quarantine.
Starting point is 01:18:45 Yeah. Same thing coming to America soon? Yep. Oh, they've already seen it. Really? 50% increase in New York divorce lawyers we're talking about. Yeah. How do you divorce someone during a quarantine?
Starting point is 01:18:57 Well, you gotta work it carefully. We're gonna see a lot of babies. Lots and lots of babies. I gotta say, everyone's stoked about the idea of us playing Division 2. We'll figure it out. Yeah, man. We actually have an area set up
Starting point is 01:19:10 because we're gonna do game streaming and we actually have the ports available on the machine to do it. It's true. We can do it.
Starting point is 01:19:17 I mean, to be honest, like the first episode, like the first few episodes we were doing was like talking about movies and stuff. We're only talking about this stuff now
Starting point is 01:19:24 because the world's ending and there's nothing else that no one's talking about anything else yeah but i think we'll we'll we'll like check out the hunt yeah we gotta and then we'll talk about that because that's culturally relevant to an extent it's the problem is that all of a sudden no one cares about any of this stuff and i get it you know you want to know why you lost your job where they're going to eat next and how they're going to pay their rent but i got i got i got to give you that point like they're they're stuck at home with nothing to do but watch the news and now they're seeing the lies in real time yeah that's why this is crazy there were there are two polls now i believe it's gallop and cbs that
Starting point is 01:19:56 people trust trump more than the media that is incredible the media is the media is doing it i love it so much right making it happen but i love it so much because it's like catharsis. It's karmic justice. You know what I mean? Seems like it. It's like, oh, man. I love it. All right.
Starting point is 01:20:13 Kyle Buchanan says, well, Oklahoma schools are closed for 2020, like, till Jan of next year unless things change. Whoa. Crazy. Yeah. Wow. Jen McMahon says, why is everyone ripping Joe Rogan? Because he smokes. And we said the other day that, or I was surmising that smokers, it's a lung disease.
Starting point is 01:20:32 So if you smoke, it hits you much more. Smoke pot? Anything, I guess. I don't think he smokes cigarettes. No, I know. I know he doesn't smoke cigarettes. He rocks the ganja, though. That's what they're talking about, though.
Starting point is 01:20:41 Because that instantly started happening in the chat. So I think that's just residual from that. i just cool dude yeah maddie bones and very much alive very much alive yeah and like but he's remarkably fit yeah yeah you know yeah there's this really funny video where uh this woman calls him fat and he's like what then he pulls his shirt up and she goes oh no no just like you know he was an mma fighter right yeah yeah i've been waiting for this it still works out his studio is a gym is it really yeah he's got a full gym and it's got an archery range i wouldn't mess with him dude i want an archery range yeah that dude's ripped maddie bone says remember believe all women unless they speak out against a Democrat. P.S. Y'all got me missing my vision streetwear.
Starting point is 01:21:25 Oh, yeah. So funny story. When the woman who was abused by Joe Biden went to the Time's Up organization, they said, well, we can't help you because Joe's a Democrat. It's political. And, you know, we can't do it. Are you serious? Yeah. That's embarrassing.
Starting point is 01:21:44 Yeah. But if it's Brett Kavanaugh. Are you serious? Yeah. That's embarrassing. Yeah. Barf. But if it's Brett Kavanaugh. Why is it? Everyone comes out of the woodwork because he's Republican. We can't have that. Why is it that Joe Biden is getting by on all of these scandals just because he's running for president? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:21:59 He's like, I'm going to run for president. All of a sudden, he is immune criminally. He's untouchable. Yeah, he's untouchable. Untouchable. Stay alive, Joe. Yeah. Stay alive.
Starting point is 01:22:09 Joe Rogan and Joe Biden. Yes. Jet says, in my hometown, a guy was arrested by the RCMP for breaking quarantine and fined $1,000. If he breaks it again, it's $7,500. Then it's $15,000 and jail time. Welcome to the authoritarian machine. The panopticon is real. Everyone knows where you,000 and jail time. Welcome to the authoritarian machine. The panopticon is real. Everyone knows where you are and they are coming for you.
Starting point is 01:22:30 And guess what? People are cheering for it. So we have a correction, actually. I quoted Padme. Padme Rung. So this is how liberty dies. Yeah, not democracy. Liberty. With thunderous applause. Yep. Grace Fang says, y'all noticed after watching one of tim's
Starting point is 01:22:45 videos youtube marks it part watched or not watched at all showing up in my history but at zero minutes watched for all weird yeah because youtube is you know suppressing my content if it's just these videos it might just be because they're live streams that's my two cents these maybe i don't know yeah toxic male gamer says play the division yeah rodal says tim why you give the internet your feet oh i posted an instagram thing of me skating with barefoot oh yeah i don't care what are they gonna do whatever and by the way this dude was doing that in like 20 degree weather skate was skating around outside crazy what yeah i know yeah you're crazy i'm calling you out for being crazy for skating when it was cold out barefoot barefoot so yeah you're crazy. I'm calling you out for being crazy. For skating when it was cold out? Barefoot. Barefoot.
Starting point is 01:23:25 So? Yeah. You're crazy. All right. I'm like, what's the big deal? I don't know. No, no, no. There's no big deal.
Starting point is 01:23:33 Oh, this is interesting, too. Check this out. So we were just talking about how the price of goods were going up. This guy says, Pleb of Reason says milk price dropped over 30%, 20% below cost of production. If this holds, farms will be going bankrupt, too. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:23:44 That's not good. I don't understand how that could be, though, because everyone rated the milks. The milk was just ripped apart from the stores. The farms wouldn't go to business. They would just need to grow something different. Cheaper milk. Maybe they could make milk by putting water. Or oats.
Starting point is 01:24:03 This happened in Europe one time, and they had to kill the dairy cows you know it's funny i interviewed a farmer uh-huh back when i was this was like in 2014 i think 2015 maybe and he was growing kale and i asked him i was like wow kale i hate kale do you have you always grown kale he started laughing he was like no no no it's like one in one day all of a sudden the order started going nuts we started making tons of money off this. And it's because hipsters were all like, it's a superfood. Got to eat your kale. Kale was originally just garnish for Pizza Hut's salad bar.
Starting point is 01:24:32 Yeah. Yeah. And then all of a sudden, these farmers were like, whoa, it's a gold mine. Like, the demand was so insane, they all started growing it. It's true. I wouldn't be surprised if this leads to a few new uh developments like nutella for instance okay do you know how nutella was invented no idea so for those that aren't familiar with the delicious creamy chocolate treat that is nutella it is a chocolate hazelnut spread and it was because of
Starting point is 01:24:54 a chocolate shortage so the dude was like if i mix this with like a nut butter what could i do to make chocolate bigger so we could take a little bit of chocolate and expand it to filler. Yeah. Manatella. Hazelnuts and chocolate. It's amazing. Delicious. If only they didn't put milk in it also. Yeah, well. You know?
Starting point is 01:25:11 So you can't have it. But I think we're going to see something similar. I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of factories and farms start going under. We start seeing like, you know, oat milk hybrid
Starting point is 01:25:21 because it's cheaper to just run oats through a grinder with water and then filter out the hard bits and mix it with milk to fluff it up. Yeah. Coconut milk. That's my jam. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:25:30 But I think we're going to see diluted product. We're going to see different products. People are going to try and save money. Look, let's be real. Grow your own food. The economy before this was golden. So, you know, we'll see. I don't think we're going to go to the point where it's like the depression and we're trying to invent things to get by yeah scepter says good
Starting point is 01:25:51 omens is great if you haven't seen slash reddit i'll check it out so the tv show i don't know maybe south thing says we won't have a country in two months it'll either be mad max or hunger games in two years perhaps yes vanessa st says, Recommend that you become greedy YouTubers and only read Super Chats over $10. Yes, I see the irony here. Yes, because that was a $5 Super Chat, but I appreciate it. Well, we try to read as many as we can,
Starting point is 01:26:14 and then we speed up by doing the bigger ones just because we have too many, and we probably have too many now. Yeah. Minmax says, Buy some soap and get that gumbo off your shirt. What? Who?
Starting point is 01:26:25 Where? It's your button again. Oh, it's a button. Remember? It's a button that's shining? Yeah. MinMac says, buy some soap and get that gumbo off your shirt. What? Who? Where? It's your button again. Oh, it's a button. It's a button that's shining. Yeah. Yeah. The shirt's clean. Why does it look like gumbo, though?
Starting point is 01:26:32 I don't get it. Where does it look like gumbo? It's the second time we've heard this. I don't know. Just say you got gumbo on your shirt. Sorry, dude. I guess. Matt the Cat says, approximately how many people die from cancer-related illnesses every
Starting point is 01:26:43 year in the U.S.? I don't know. Do you know how many? A lot? What causes cancer cancer that's the real question the issue with uh a lot of these other diseases people don't get is that when someone gets cancer they get a treatment they go to the hospital they get you know chemo shot or pill or whatever it is they get they go home and then they come back later for the follow-up treatments and then if they get really bad then they're put in, you know, in the hospital. With coronavirus, it's like one day you're walking around and then all of a sudden you're gasping and wheezing.
Starting point is 01:27:09 You collapse on a subway train and they bring you to the hospital. And they're desperately trying to stop you from dying. They may or may not even know how to treat it. They think they know how to target cancer to some extent. They have a few different treatments. Yeah. Dr. Doctor says, I talked to a buddy that works at Dallas Center as an ATC. And he said, the plan now is to wait until people get sick and then shut down for 14 days.
Starting point is 01:27:31 Jan, thanks for coming to member. Red Beard says, $15 million reward for capture and conviction of Maduro on drug trafficking and narco tourism. We were talking about that earlier. What are your thoughts? Is that what they put out? Yep. Dang. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:27:42 Barred it. Is he still the president or no? Maduro? Yeah. Yeah. As far as he still the president or no? Maduro? Yeah. Yeah, as far as I know. The president of Venezuela. This strikes me as very strange. He's a leader of a foreign country.
Starting point is 01:27:51 Well, you know. Replacing a $15 million ransom on the head of a foreign leader. That is very interesting. And you will see a coup in two seconds. That is interesting. We'll see, man. They're already upset. We're going to speed up and jump to, you know, try and go through the super chats faster.
Starting point is 01:28:04 Oh, wow. It's 930 already. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I was ranting a lot about the media. A few things in there. I had to do up and jump to, you know, try and go through the super chats faster. Oh, wow. Nine thirty. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I was ranting a lot about the media. I had to do it. It was good. Yeah, for sure.
Starting point is 01:28:09 I told you to. Jason Martz says, love the show. Tim, have you looked up Bill H.R. Five seven one seven. Can you write that down? We need to do that. So I did a little bit and it is a huge gun control thing. And it's from a couple of years ago.
Starting point is 01:28:21 I want to say that the crazy one that bans handguns. I believe so. Or part of it got through, I think. Yeah. Oof. CC, thanks for becoming a member. Benito says,
Starting point is 01:28:30 Tim, I've heard you talk about anime. I highly suggest watching Log Horizon. People get trapped in an MMORPG and the main character uses strategy to solve every problem as 3 comes out this year. Season 3. Oh, cool.
Starting point is 01:28:41 Sounds fun. Not Heisenbear says, Positive. Timcast IRL launches and provides valuable information and perspective in a crisis. We weren't trying to provide anyone with valuable perspective.
Starting point is 01:28:51 We were trying to complain about movies. We were watching Sonic the Hedgehog. We went to the AMC. We saw Sonic the Hedgehog. We were like, Sonic the Hedgehog was a great movie. How much fun? Wasn't it cool when, you know,
Starting point is 01:29:01 Tails came out and blah, blah, blah. And it's like, oh, I can't wait for the next movie. Yeah. We'll just have to go see the next one. One week later, the world is ending. It was not to be. No.
Starting point is 01:29:12 Paxton Fairbank says, grass is good for the kids to play on. It acts as a nice mat for kids to roughhouse on. Grass is good. I do like grass. That's true. Go to a handy redneck. Grass was a social status in the old world. If you were wealthy and powerful, you did not have to grow food and get dirty.
Starting point is 01:29:28 Interesting. Now we're all wealthy. Just David says, the media is making this bigger. It's not good. It's contagious and high mortality rate. But we live with more debilitating and deadly disease and hazard. We are not used to this. We are atrophied and need to rebuild muscles.
Starting point is 01:29:43 That's what I was saying. It's very true we can't we can't it's like i i feel like like you know one day oh remember that story i told you about the wolf the family was on the beach and the wolf showed up and they ran out they swam out to the ocean to a rock and were huddling freezing terrified of the wolf that's what i'm like dude wolves are out there yep 100 years ago 200 years, the guy would have drawn his sword and been like, stay back, family. Come at me, beast. Or, you know, I'm kidding.
Starting point is 01:30:10 Oh, no. This is a very accurate depiction. They knew the dangers. Yeah. And people died all the time. But now that we're so safe, everyone walked. Nobody has weapons for the most part. People walk around in just like loose, thin cotton shirts.
Starting point is 01:30:24 No leather, no hide, no mail, nothing, no nothing no protection yeah and they don't expect anything to happen so when it does they panic and they hide in their bedroom and slam the door and lock it of course uh chainmail wouldn't have done much to a deadly virus pandemic no no but what i mean is i know those are 200 300 years ago people would be like he's got you know or what is it like? You ever see that movie with Tombstone? Yeah. He's got the consumption. You know, tuberculosis. I think it was tuberculosis, right?
Starting point is 01:30:50 The consumption. Yeah. And so. Doc Holliday. And people would die. Now it's like we have this, you know, deadly disease and people immediately run inside, slam the doors shut and start huddling in fear. Now, I mean that I'm somewhat, you know, I'm being somewhat hyperbolic, but at what point
Starting point is 01:31:06 do we recognize that we can't control everything and these things are going to happen? We can't all hide from this. I don't know. I don't know what to do. Fortunately, I work from home and I don't have to go out into the world and get any crazy diseases. Yeah, I was talking to a buddy of mine. We're lucky, man. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Let's keep it moving mark g says i'm making a liberty garden in my yard just in case the lockdown gets worse if the lockdown doesn't then i'll have fresh veggies win-win correct mimic what people did during world war one yeah well i want chickens but you can't legally have them here i am angry yeah we had chickens in miami we did fresh eggs every morning glorious and the chickens were more than happy to be like, pick them up and they'd just look at you.
Starting point is 01:31:48 And then we would eat them. And they ate their own eggs too. It's kind of gross. That's bad. They're not supposed to do that. Oh, no. They need calcium. No, it's like I was reading about it's a bad habit.
Starting point is 01:31:57 Basically, the chickens will learn to do it and it's a really bad thing. So you got to go in there and make sure you take the eggs away. But something happened where like I think when one of the animals broke in, and, like, one of the eggs broke, and they started eating it or something. Oh, yeah. I forgot that we had that animal break in. Those dogs, man. The dogs.
Starting point is 01:32:12 The dogs kept coming in and trying to kill our chickens, and they did kill some of them. That's BS, man. Yeah. My chickens are my friends. All right, let's read on. But we can't have them here in Jersey. CDW says, Even if we do bring manufacturing
Starting point is 01:32:26 back, politicians will bring the Chinese workers with it. My company stopped hiring local grads and only hires H1B PhDs for jobs that only require associate's degrees. Yeah, we can't do that either. Student of History says, I think we need to buy time till we have a viable option of fighting back. If X, if the hydrochloroquine azithromycin tests come back good or when we get the ventilator production up. Yeah. Clear Smash says, hey, Tim, just wanted to show some support. Stay safe. Appreciate it. Red Leg says, welcome to the division plotline IRL. Glad I had stuff ready. Stay safe and keep doing what you do. Will do. Paxton says, it doesn't matter how bad the virus is. We will muddle on through. It will be hard,
Starting point is 01:33:05 but we are strong and we'll survive. Now is the time for the concept of serenity to make a comeback. Greg Wolf, there is a story from Weimar, Germany that goes, a lady took her wheelbarrow full of money to the store to buy bread. She went inside and someone dumped the money and stole the wheelbarrow. That's great. Gary Wildly says, I'm an electrician in Michigan. We only have essential workers working. And today I had a first. I had someone call the cops on me for just working. I never thought a day like that would happen. Wow. Yeah, man. Like the people in Jersey had friends over and all the neighbors called the police. Dude, when the authoritarian nightmare comes, that people are going to clap and cheer for it.
Starting point is 01:33:43 It's going to be like 1984. Stephen Coombs says, I enjoy the show. Keep it up. You guys mentioned the wonder chicken last night. Today, a new carnivorous feathered dinosaur from New Mexico was published. It's called Dino Bellator.
Starting point is 01:33:56 Check it out. That's what we were looking at. Yeah, we're just looking at the same thing. The Hylian VoIP technology, voice over IP, theory regarding Chinese phones is that people are destroying them or shutting them off to hide. Unlikely 21 million die that fast.
Starting point is 01:34:10 Phone ownership is mandatory in China. Whoa, what? Really? It's mandatory? I never heard that. That's scary. I didn't know that it was the ownership that was mandatory. I knew that if you got the phone, you had to like get facial recognition and like register who you are and where you live.
Starting point is 01:34:24 Why not? Make everybody have a phone. Yikes, man. Wow. Carrie, thanks for becoming a member. You had to get facial recognition and register who you are and where you live and all that crazy stuff. Make everybody have a phone. Yikes, man. Wow. Carrie, thanks for becoming a member. Thank you. Laowai says, hey, man. I heard we were mentioned.
Starting point is 01:34:33 Would love to come on the show. Let me know. I think you were. Indeed, and I'm already in touch with you. We'll figure it out. But here's the thing. We don't really do Skype. We don't really set up for Skype stuff.
Starting point is 01:34:42 And we were actually bringing people down to the show to come on. And we even set up this big empty space in between us. There's supposed to be someone here. And now we're quarantined in the apocalypse and we can't have people over. Gothic says, hey Tim, there's an anime called Sword Art Online where players use a helmet called Dive Gear where all the controls are your brain. Seems like the future of gaming as far as I can tell. I can't wait. We are familiar with this.
Starting point is 01:35:07 Yes. I'm excited. I gotta charge up the VR thing. Have you ever played the Space Pirates game? The Quest Space Pirates? I don't think so. Oh, dude. It's amazing.
Starting point is 01:35:15 Cool. It's very simple. It's an arcade game, little robots, and you're like... Yeah, and you can get an electromagnet and grab them and throw them. It's fun. Cool.
Starting point is 01:35:23 We'll set it up. Yeah, I like VR. Like Fry says, have you heard the rumors about Advil and Tylenol that Advil makes Corona worse and Tylenol is safe to use? A lot of people I know are freaking out over this. Can you look into whether these rumors are true or not? Interesting. I don't know because there's a lot of conflicting information.
Starting point is 01:35:37 Yeah. Yeah, man. So I'm not going to say anything because I don't want anybody to hurt. I don't know. All right. Greg says, hey, Tim, uh laowai 86 is in your chat asking to do a video with you he and serpents do great videos on china reach out to him okay thanks we will uh you are excellent i am already bv says earn it act likely just the beginning of
Starting point is 01:35:58 sneaky government overreach during a crisis and we need and we all need to be especially vigilant right now remember the patriot act was written and shelved years before 9-11 whoa do uh duder thanks for coming a member thanks excellent and we'll scroll down paul duffy thanks for the super chat paul's oh it just jumped on us i love it when it does that so as i'm scrolling up and looking to try and figure out where our super chats went i will explain to you what's happening youtube loads all the super chats at once and then the entire feed just blinks. And I'm like, okay. Paul says, I've had to lay off all my employees. Our company is making $0 for the first time in 120 years. We can get back to work. I have a video on my page about how. Please let me know what you
Starting point is 01:36:39 think. We'll take a look at it. Kaj says, when the crisis is over, China must pay reparations to the entire world for releasing this plague upon the planet. They must be made an example of so that something like this never happens again. They should not have lied. They should not have withheld information. And they traced the first case back to November. If we knew then, this could have all been avoided. Agreed.
Starting point is 01:37:02 We could have done a semi-lockdown for a short period of time. It would have stopped in its tracks. Yep. All right. Team Gas says, seek truth. Appreciate the super chat. Shire says, China holds $1 trillion in U.S. bonds. We can tell them to pound sand and cancel these bonds.
Starting point is 01:37:20 We hold a $1 trillion gun to their head. Yikes. Nonservium says, someone pointed out to me that during the government shutdown a while back, a bunch of activist rallies suddenly got canceled. And now because of this whole pandemic, you see less activism on the internet. Coincidence? I think not. Perhaps a coincidence. The issue is that activism won't be effective right now because no one will care. We are still seeing these stupid articles where they're like, you know, but my bigotry. If activists, first first of all they can't go out right now we're under quarantine
Starting point is 01:37:49 if they did everyone would screech them and it would be a huge net negative for their cause true you right like this is why trump's approval is skyrocketing nobody cares about you know your weird whatever we don't we just don't want to die super guy 88 says the beanies should say it's complicated oh we'll have a variety of beanies. Actually, you know what? On that note, what do you guys want on the beanies? I actually have a few ideas. I'm working with an artist to do some cool TimCast IRL stuff for us.
Starting point is 01:38:16 But, yeah, what should we do? I mean, it's complicated. That's on the list already. And, I mean, really the number one thing i want to do is emulate that what he's got on his head the actual tim cast beanie yeah the original the original not the original well but it's going to be instead of dc it'll be tp oh that's not gonna work tim cast well tim pool all right we'll do that all right all right i can't tim cast mabe says or maybe just irl anyway go ahead will china the ccp
Starting point is 01:38:46 be punished for the coronavirus or the leaders of the world will just ignore it like what happened in sars outbreak years ago which is which also came from chinese wet market nothing's gonna happen they're gonna do anything to them right debbie thanks for becoming a member derrick as well thanks for joining aaron larson says tim a heads up for y'all i have all notifications on for this channel and i subscribed but subscribed but youtube still isn't sending me notifications when you go live anymore that's what i was talking about in this way for four days now look into it yeah well adam wasn't even getting i'm trying to figure it out myself because i have my computer here and when i sit down and he logs it up i'm i try to get it prepped and ready and i don't get i'm subscribed i you know welcome
Starting point is 01:39:22 to youtube the bell sometimes it works. That's the weird part. Sometimes it'll be like, boom, it's there. I click the bell and it pops up right away. But I would say 75% of the time, nothing happens. It's annoying. All right, let's see what we got. Let's keep moving. Hydro Homie says,
Starting point is 01:39:39 Will the inevitable inflation coming to the U.S. global economy with the inevitable inflation? Do you believe that untraceable cryptos such as Monero, Zcash, PIVX, etc. will retain its value and possibly be used as the main currency? I'm not sure. I'm not particularly bullish on them necessarily because there's too many different ones. And they're based on a system that we're spoiled with we have to remember what if the internet goes down what if electricity goes out you know even if it's for a little bit if that's your main source of of currency what are you going to do you know if you got your personal handle device but if electricity goes out yeah exactly what are you going to do challenging
Starting point is 01:40:20 grow food that's the true currency for the future if this does hit the fan yeah no one cares thanks for coming to member thank you eman bell says i've watched about every video you've put out every day for the last year but i've never had one appear in my up next feed oh they got rid of it yeah it doesn't they they pulled me out it's ridiculous that's why i always say you gotta subscribe hit the like button whatever this is a new channel yeah hit that like button for hopefully you know yeah hit the like leor engelstein says my two cents some good changes that i hope will come from this one manufacturing moving away from china two bonds bought by china will not be paid by the world not just usa oh man that would be brutal for them yeah the moen says
Starting point is 01:41:00 so jesus and lydia can you talk can you talk your position on private ownership of guns? And Tim, are you now considering purchasing a gun? I love it. Well, I don't own a gun, but I wish I did. I want to get one.
Starting point is 01:41:15 That's it. What do you think about gun control? I think you should be vetted. And if you're clear, you should get a gun. Background checks? Yeah, why not not they just shut them down you can't buy one now yeah that's all they have to do is say oh oh gosh background
Starting point is 01:41:30 this is what they did with pot yeah in the turn of the century they said okay we won't ban the sale of pot but you need to buy from the government approved stamps for the purchase of the pot okay but we don't sell stamps anymore yep that's the that's the loophole because everyone says oh that's no big deal so i'm actually in favor of background checks not anymore yeah for this reason i mean you just pointed out i i don't want any government to have control over if i can get one or not because i i would like to go get one dude if they're gonna say i'm sorry uh we're not doing it right now because we don't do background checks anymore forever. And it's like, okay, I'm going to have an issue with that.
Starting point is 01:42:10 This pandemic stuff has pushed me right on several issues, notably like 2A. Yeah. And, you know, initially I was always fairly tepid on most things. I lean a little to the left. I've always been like background checks make sense. It just does it does and i even went and did an interview with this like this uh this weapons trainer for like uh local police and he's like a top tier like shooting competitor and he said we got problems with non-nationalized like non-uniform background checks like you can go to one state
Starting point is 01:42:41 and in a short amount of time actually get a gun and then you can take it to another state where you can't have it. It's like you can't have these rules. They don't make sense. There's a lot of problems with it. Like if you're a legal gun owner and you drive to the wrong state on a vacation, you can't do it. You'll go to prison. So there's got to be something uniform everyone can understand.
Starting point is 01:42:56 And we make sure that crazy people can't try and source guns from other areas. One of the things they do in Chicago is there will be people because the Indiana border is right there. Someone from Indiana will buy it and then mark it up like they'll give to the guy from Chicago illegally. So there's there's issues. The problem now is after, you know, after seeing, you know, these arguments where it's like, hey, it makes sense. You should be able to do that. What happened in a major crisis where now more than ever people are realizing the need self defense? The government just goes, oh, by the way, we're not going to process background checks anymore. Effectively illegalizing the purchase of all guns.
Starting point is 01:43:29 Yeah, that's not okay. Right. And you even see some governors trying to shut down gun shops. That's nuts to me. You can see how much power they try and grab as soon as the crisis starts. And because of that desperate attempt at power, it makes me recoil in the other direction. Like, nah, now I'm very much like, nope. I feel like that's happening a lot. Yeah. On a lot of things. Yeah. Dude, on immigration, conservatives have been proven
Starting point is 01:43:52 right. Not, not like, I don't want to say like in every aspect of it, because there's a lot of people who are very extreme on it. Yeah. But Trump trying to secure the borders now more than ever, we, we, we know why it's important to do. And they're, and they try and claim like, but a wall won't stop a virus no but it'll stop the people from illegally entering who have the virus yeah it's not a simple simple thing 10 years ago democrats were all in favor of border barriers interesting as soon as trump says it they're like not for me anymore yeah but uh what do you what about you you you were asked as well what you think on 2A. I'm pretty strongly 2A. All right. Well, there you go.
Starting point is 01:44:25 There you go. June F says, Division 2, still waiting on that Minecraft stream. Oh, yeah. Alex, thanks for the super chat. Vasht said, haha, you thought they got top hats. I'm not sure what that is a reference to. Neither do I. Don't know.
Starting point is 01:44:39 Bunch of super chats just popped in right now. Here we go. Thanks, everyone. Thank you, everyone. Micro Colonel says, PM Trudeau apparently was bragging about sending all of our PPE to China after they already banned the export of PPE from their country.
Starting point is 01:44:50 Now we have a lot less than we could have, and China will not be sending any our way. Not surprising. Bobcat says, book review suggestion, New York collapse. It was written as a supplement to the game The Division,
Starting point is 01:45:02 but most of it is actually valid and has good puzzles. Cool. Moldavi says, thank you for reading my super chat. God bless. Stay safe. You do great work. We can get people back to work. We need it too. I detail a plan in that vid. All right. Mr. Paul R says, Nancy Nero Pelosi watched while America burned. Tim, Soy Jesus and Lydia, stay safe. Depend on you for part of my daily updates. We are number one in something we don't want number one to be number one in reported coronavirus cases. Yep. Yeah, that's true.
Starting point is 01:45:31 And thank you. Jay. Yeah, says, Hi, Tim. I'm an in in intensivist ICU doc been watching you for two years now. Really appreciate your insight and coverage that MSM doesn't include from both sides. Thank you for getting good info about this pandemic. Please, people, take heed and be safe. Wash your hands. And you should be washing your hands anyway. Yeah, dude, please. We're wrong for sure. John Monk says the military is going to have is going is going to going to have to have a huge is going to have a huge
Starting point is 01:46:00 outbreak soon. Yikes. Yeah, that's the military is going to have a huge outbreak soon. Necroside says, for the Tylenol thing, my sister works as an RN at one of our major local hospitals and was officially warned about ibuprofen use and the use of Tylenol instead. Ibuprofen increases cytokines. Is that how you say it?
Starting point is 01:46:17 Yeah, it's called a cytokine storm. Ah. It's an immune response. Yikes. So avoid ibuprofen? Yeah. Well, ask your doctor doctor don't get advice from your your commentary shows that was a question yeah that i just i was asking yeah
Starting point is 01:46:31 the legendary legendary masamune says hey guys love the podcast i was curious to ask i have youtube premium but for some reason these streams and even the recorded version you put up i can't play with my phone locked while working do you know why this is i don't because i can i don't know i don't know either so yeah when you when i open the app and i press play on the show i can close my phone and it works some people are having problems with this and i have no idea youtube is just i've never been able to close my phone and have it work if you have premium you can oh it's a special feature interesting all right let's see uh exquisite corpse says why not do a contest for us to design your beanies well because you know to make the beanie legit you can't we can't have too much on it
Starting point is 01:47:12 yeah i i have a very simple i have a pretty solid idea of what i want so there might be a few things with just a couple of his catchphrases maybe just like the various ones so jesus so i saw you this? I'm just kidding. I don't know. Well, who knows? Well, maybe you make one. I don't know if people want a soy Jesus beanie. I'm sure they would.
Starting point is 01:47:31 You got to buy both. Collect them all. Yeah, that's great. Every month we'll put like a one slash, you know, like X, like limited edition pressing. Yeah. Things like that. Dude, this is going to be so fun. Legit designer beanies.
Starting point is 01:47:41 Yeah, man. Tovin says, and now you know why small government is paramount to maintain your freedoms. Oh, you know it, baby. Oh, yeah. Small government. AJ Starhiker, I know a guy who will not drive to Chicago because he won't leave his gun behind. He's also an instructor for competitive shooting, and they have to be careful about traveling to tourneys. Beetle, thanks for becoming a member.
Starting point is 01:48:01 Thank you. Travis Potter says, Soy Jesus, what do you think about hunting? Is it more respectable when someone takes part in the entire process of getting meat instead of paying for the murder? Absolutely. A hundred percent. I actually have nothing against hunters. They, people that go out and kill the animal themselves and harvest it themselves. Like, all right, you're living off the land.
Starting point is 01:48:19 Yeah. All right. You're not paying someone else to do it. You don't know where it came from, but if you're a hunter, more power power to you i'm sure there's vegans out there that are hating me for that but that's that's fine i well they're health vegans they do it for the health there's some do it for animal rights that's true and i do it for me you know i'm not doing it for anyone else sure i talk about it but you know i think it's relevant in certain situations but if you're going out to the woods and you're taking the time to find an
Starting point is 01:48:45 animal and hunt it yourself and you're harvesting yourself that's how that's how humans have done it for a long time hunting is important to control some yeah i mean i lived i lived in chicago for a while and there's there's places where the deer would would overrun some areas and they needed hunters to go take the deer out so if you're gonna just go kill deer for no reason just because it's like okay but if you're going out there and you're gonna just go kill deer for no reason just because it's like okay but if you're going out there and you're actually helping and you know feeding your like one deer can feed you know a lot of people that oh i knew it due to a deer it was crazy yeah it's like you know what yeah there's a reason why there's a season for it and why it's regulated and stuff
Starting point is 01:49:18 yeah they they are they do regulate very well so so uh aj's comment about driving through chicago i wanted to mention i actually met a dude who was driving through Chicago, driving through Illinois. He had guns in his trunk, got pulled over, searched the vehicle. That's it. Prison.
Starting point is 01:49:32 It's all over. Prison. Dang. Yep. He was passing through. He's from LA or something. And he was like, they're mine.
Starting point is 01:49:40 And they were like, it doesn't matter. There was a woman from, I think, Tennessee with a legal permit for a revolver. She went to the Sears Tower, now Willis Tower, as a tourist. She's an old lady. She's like 63. And when she was going in,
Starting point is 01:49:52 there was a metal detector and she said, oh, can I leave my weapon here? And they were like, prison. And she got prison time. Hard prison for an old woman who was from Tennessee who was legally owning a weapon. That's insane. Yeah. Martin says, we need to treat the Chinese like we treat the USSR.
Starting point is 01:50:09 They are the enemy of free men across the world. Bro Cody says, we need a beanie with the Tim quote, listen, man. Well, there's a bunch of different quotes, you know. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, That's one of them, too. Yeah, that's the one, yeah. All right.
Starting point is 01:50:22 Travis Potter says, I like you much more now. There you go. Mr. Paul R. says, Lydia, Soy Jesus and Tim Pool beanies of them, too. Yeah, that's the one, yeah. All right. Travis Potter says, I like you much more now. There you go. Mr. Paul R. says, Lydia, Soy Jesus, and Tim Pool Beanies. You got it. Oh, that was for me. They like me much more. Right, yeah. Oh, well, I appreciate that.
Starting point is 01:50:31 Thank you. And now for some non-world-ending, non-political fun news. Oh, thank the soy. Good news for lazy joggers. That makes no sense. Good news for lazy joggers. That makes no sense. Good news, everyone. Scientists develop ankle exoskeleton that makes running 14% easier than in normal sports shoes. So apparently Nike Shoes funded this research, and they developed some kind of exo-Ironman type. Look at this.
Starting point is 01:51:01 It begins. It begins. This is the start. So here's the thing. Oh, this is cool. Here's the thing. I want to run faster the the start so here's here's here's the thing oh this is cool here's the thing i want to run faster i know right let me tell you the thing here's the thing there's a thing another beanie idea what makes iron man tony stark a superhero is that he as one person developed all of these things very very quickly right we in real life in a cave in well no no he made a weird bonkers the first the first iron man i know right he did
Starting point is 01:51:24 but he's like a crappy suit he went home and he was like yeah yeah so what do we have right now we got a guy who can fly yeah and now we got a guy who can run oh we got to bring these things together and then we're gonna have the real suit but let's let's be honest like if you wore an iron man suit and someone hit you with like a mortar shell you're gonna die. I don't know what his suit's made of. I know. Because there's that scene in the first one where he's flying and the tank fires the artillery shell. And every Iron Man, he gets shot against the wall
Starting point is 01:51:52 and it's just like, boom! I'm okay. He's fine, yeah. I'm okay. It's like, well, what about your brain? Your brain is still sitting in fluid. And if it hits the back, you're going to get a concussion. I just assume that Iron Man has some kind of maglev-like force field that absorbs.
Starting point is 01:52:09 Force-dampening adamantium. Oh, inertial dampeners. Yeah, right. Like in Star Trek. Yeah, the inertial dampeners. So check this out. How the ankle exoskeleton works. Now, it's just the ankle, so the story is kind of a letdown, but it's still pretty cool.
Starting point is 01:52:22 We can run better. I actually bought these things. They were advertised to me on Instagram. They're these spring-loaded knee braces. Oh, man. I've seen those. They don't work. I heard that they didn't work. Because it creates a weird obstruction in your knee when you bend them.
Starting point is 01:52:37 And it just feels weird. It actually feels worse. But the idea is interesting. So there are these things that you strap them onto your knees, and in the back there's a spring. And it's like plastic, and then when it bends, it resists. All I can think is that you're an Instagram sucker.
Starting point is 01:52:54 Yeah? I buy so much stuff off Instagram to give you an idea. They have cool ads, dude. Look at that UFO. The UFO thing is from Instagram? No, no, no. Switch to us. That UFO I saw on Instagram. It took a long time to get here, too. It's pretty cool. We forgot about it.
Starting point is 01:53:09 And then it turned up and we were like, oh my goodness. It's a lamp? I gotta be honest, though. I like the globe better. No, I like the UFO better. You know what? We should have a vote. Now look at it. It's spinning. Obviously, there's two against one, but I'm talking about you guys out there. What do you think? The globe or the UFO?
Starting point is 01:53:27 Shout out in the comments. At me in the comments if you want the globe. And then at Tim if you like the UFO. That is cool. It's floating and spinning. It can play music. Yeah, I read it's a speaker. And it's charging while it's floating. That's awesome. I'm it. It's a speaker. And it's charging while it's floating. That's awesome.
Starting point is 01:53:47 I'm not saying it's not cool. Anyway, back to the exoskeletons. So let's see. They say couch potatoes trying to get in shape could one day be helped along their fitness journey by an ankle exoskeleton that makes it easier and less tiring to run. Okay, I'm going to stop you right there. If you don't like running, don't do it. It's it it's not gonna make you run listen that's what i was thinking you've got to develop good habits no one's gonna run with these if they don't like running if you
Starting point is 01:54:13 don't like running you're not gonna run you know you know i like skateboarding i i actually do like running because there is a point where you kind of get the endorphins running and you go into like this spacey cloud space and it's it's actually pretty great i like free running but i do like skating over over running well so so here's the thing i'm gonna always go skate instead doing something you don't want to do is very difficult okay and you need community support to get into something so like if you're somebody who wants if you're a lazy catch potato and you want to get into running find some people to run with and and and hang out with them and you need to build that community for me skateboarding is a very solitary thing i skate because i want to yeah some people skate because they want to be with their friends but when i go out i'm not like it's time to exercise we're gonna go skate no it's like i want to skate i just happen to be getting exercise
Starting point is 01:55:01 so what what what are the real benefits of this exoskeleton? I don't know. Military capabilities? Nah. You don't think so? I don't think so. Why not? 14% energy reduction?
Starting point is 01:55:12 Because the military is going to use robots. They're not leaning to make humans go out there with like super suits to run faster. This is just someone who, you know, is coming up with something that's, you know, it is kind of cool, but what's the application to this? It's not going to be the military. The military wants robots. They don't want to lose humans.
Starting point is 01:55:34 That's why they're studying gamers' brains. They're studying people who control, like, StarCraft, kind of like, you know, sending masses and understanding the flow of battle to do robots, not superhumans. That's not happening. I'm actually a bit bummed. Apparently these tethers are like mounted to motors that go into your suit. Yeah, sure.
Starting point is 01:55:55 This is the start. Right. So maybe they'll wear a backpack at some point. But the other thing is what they're arguing, like they're saying, you know, eventually a version will be created to help runners on a treadmill save an average of 24 percent more energy i thought the goal of running what i thought the goal of running on a treadmill was to burn energy yeah exactly what what is the point of this what is this feels like wasted research no no i think so what's the point of this what is the reason if we? If we can make simple exosuits to increase...
Starting point is 01:56:26 There was one guy. He's got one. It's a hydraulic suit. Okay. And he was able to lift ridiculously heavy things with it. Interesting. So that makes sense to me. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:56:35 That has some applications. Outside just simply running. It's like hydraulic bars with a hook at the end. And he would hook it around stuff and lift 100, 200 pound weights. Dope. Right. Well, this makes can run you can save energy when you run where are you running what maybe you got a job and you got to run maybe you're uh oh yeah maybe you're what job what's who's who's who's the guy who ran the marathon oh they're gonna allow this in the marathon no yeah exactly remember remember that guy what what's the origin of the marathon? Who did it? I have no idea.
Starting point is 01:57:06 I would never run a marathon. The marathon originated because some dude had to run 26 miles or something in ancient Rome. And then he ran as fast as he could to deliver this message. Oh, that's right. One of the gods had the wings on his feet. Was that him?
Starting point is 01:57:21 That's Mercury? Hermes? Hermes. I don't know. That's like the story of the marathon or whatever. No idea. There are people who have to run in certain environments. Right now, we don't have Boston Dynamics-style robots to go
Starting point is 01:57:38 and fight. Yeah, you know what? The people who are in civilizations that need to run are super fit. Their muscles are used to running and they're they're like they were like oh yeah run in the store like it would take more time for me to be strapped up in this stuff to then go there i could just run and get there and get the thing and come back before you're even you're like halfway there even though you run faster you still gotta i don't know just like let's say it's like... What are we talking about?
Starting point is 01:58:05 This is like Iron Man stuff. It's like level one. We're just getting started, baby. I know. I agree. I just want to see some real applications. You ever see Mario Brothers, the movie? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:58:17 Remember when they put those things on their legs and make them jump really high? Yeah. That wouldn't work, but what if it could? I mean, it's the same thing we talked about earlier. You fly up real high, and you fall and die. Right, right, right. It's like, we're human.
Starting point is 01:58:29 Well, so, but here's the idea, though. That's supposed to be. The idea is that you have these things on your legs. Okay. That have stored energy in, like, a spring or some kind of, you know, I don't know, piston. I have no idea. Sure. And right when you jump, it releases at the same time, giving you an extended jump.
Starting point is 01:58:43 When you land, it absorbs energy and compresses it back down and clicks in. Sure, okay. But if you mess up. If you mess up. You'll be flipping and going like, ah, ah, and you die. Or hitting somebody, running into something. But hey, man, look. That's a mess.
Starting point is 01:58:55 I've seen football players just running, and then they tear their ACL. But I've also seen the stupidity of humans. Very prevalent as of late. And people will have access to this kind of thing. They'll be like bouncing around. I don't want to see that. Do you know the story of Spring-Heeled Jack? No, thanks.
Starting point is 01:59:12 What is it? Spring-Heeled Jack. Spring-Heeled Jack. No, I don't. Yeah. Spring-Heeled Jack is an entity in English folklore of the Victorian era. The first claimed sighting of Spring-Heeled Jack was in 1837. There are many theories about the nature and identity of Spring-Heeled Jack. The urban legend
Starting point is 01:59:30 was very popular in its time due to the tales of his bizarre appearance and ability to make extraordinary leaps to the point that he became the topic of several works of fiction. Spring-Heeled Jack was described by people who claimed to have seen him as having a terrifying and frightful appearance with diabolical physio physiognomy, clawed hands and eyes that resembled red balls of fire. One report claimed that beneath a black cloak, he wore a helmet and a tight fitting white garment like an oil skin. Many stories also mentioned a devil like aspect. Others said he was tall and thin with the appearance of a gentleman. Several reports mentioned that he could breathe out blue and white flames. Okay, this is just getting
Starting point is 02:00:10 absurd. Yeah, wasn't opium really heavy and prevalent back then? I see it. I see it. People are on crazy drugs. Pretty sure people were drinking absinthe. Look, mass hysteria. Put it right there. So, my general understanding of why they call him Spring-Heeled Jack was that the assumption was he had some kind of things in his boots and he could jump really
Starting point is 02:00:29 high yeah and there were stories that like they he would be being chased and then he would just jump on top of a building have you ever seen uh what's that movie uh brothers grim i think it is no i think it's heath ledger and matt damon yeah and And they just like they're the Grimm brothers who like kill the demons or whatever. And it's all a hoax. They got like springboards set up to convince the people that they're doing these amazing things. But it's all just like smoke and mirrors. It's like that's the that's the that's the reality of ninjas.
Starting point is 02:00:58 You know that is it? So I didn't know that. That's cool. I'm not I'm not a ninja expert, but I have read one or two Reddit articles when they popped up. And I was reading how they would try to create the perception of having magic powers. So people would avoid fighting them. So one of the things they would do is before... They're assassins, right?
Starting point is 02:01:20 They wouldn't dress in all black. That's from theater. They would wear regular clothes of regular people so they could blend in. Makes sense. But let's say there was like a building and they had to assassinate somebody. Okay. They would prepare for the escape. So in the pond, in the lake next to it, they would put wooden beams.
Starting point is 02:01:39 And then after they assassinated their target and were fleeing and being chased. You run across the lake. They would run across the lake and people would stop and be like demons yeah when they were really just jumping from log to log yeah yeah so it was all about trickery and deception well not always but that's one of the things they would do you create you know so maybe the spring-heeled jack guy was just some some dude who preset maybe it was a board in the ground of the spring yeah and he would run and hit it and it would bounce him in the air and they'd be like, how did he do that? Not realizing.
Starting point is 02:02:08 Whoa, he's spring-heeled. Yeah. But I dig the old urban legend. He's like jumping around. He's like the original Batman. Yeah, for real. Look at this guy. That's very cool. He looks kind of flamboyant. It's his tight white pants.
Starting point is 02:02:23 It's literally the Batman and the Joker together. Look at his smile. It kind of does. Look at his face. I like that. You know how I got these scars? My boots. I jumped really high and fell down onto a fence post.
Starting point is 02:02:37 Right in his mouth. Oh, gosh. Well, anyway, I don't know. Do you have any final thoughts on the coming... Oh, that's the wrong story. Do you have any final thoughts on the coming... I don't know. Do you have any final thoughts on the coming? Oh, that's the wrong story. Do you have any final thoughts on the coming? I don't know. All I can think is the beanies are coming soon.
Starting point is 02:02:51 There we go. I'm so stoked. Don't buy spring heels. Don't buy exoskeleton suits. Buy beanies. Prepare beanies for all. For beanies. The full collection.
Starting point is 02:03:00 Beanies for some. Have you wanted to become a beanie bro? Well, soon you'll have your chance Tim cast IRL beanie coming to you soon Soon yes, and these are gonna be like made in America made in America and packaged by a regular himself Yeah, I'm doing this magic. Oh, Jesus. I'll even sign them for you Yeah, maybe no we should put like cards in too and stuff like that. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:03:26 Make it a little package. Some commons. You know what we should do? Put a magic card in there? No, we should make gag magic cards. Okay. And the beanies can come with magic cards. Oh, my gosh. That's a great idea.
Starting point is 02:03:37 I'm thinking of a game. Like you, me. Oh, right. Maybe we should make cancel culture cards. Well, I mean, i guess we can kind of let people know we're working on it everybody knows we're working on it oh they do yeah oh i've talked about it a lot yeah we talked about it on the show oh sure we're working on a card game it's called cancel culture yep we're working on a game and the the goal of the it's a card game
Starting point is 02:03:56 it's it's going to be simplified we're we're trying to work out ways to stop it from becoming a rich person's game like a lot lot of games, even Pokemon Magic, cards become ridiculously expensive. We're getting rid of all that. We want a game where you can pop up in the box and you can play with your friends and it's really funny because the goal of the game is that you are trying to cancel your opponent. Yep. Cancel culture, baby.
Starting point is 02:04:18 So it's basically just a bunch of pop culture references and the gag is, you know, you'll have a character who's like peter jordanson fighting against you know rojo gen rojo gen or wet breinstein i mean these are really really poorly thought out gag names but we're working on like making a very silly parody everyone will get torn apart no one is safe i will say toilet girl is a thing toilet girl and and that's the goal for the expansions is to actually just make like when stories come out, there's viral moments.
Starting point is 02:04:50 We'll make cards for these things. Yeah. And but, you know. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I want to say one thing about it. We're going to make fun of everybody. Oh, yeah. We're going to make fun of me.
Starting point is 02:04:59 We're going to make fun of feminists. Everyone will get torn apart. No one will be spared. But, of course, I guarantee you one side of this is going to laugh at all of the mockery, and the other side is going to say it's bigotry, and it's sexist,
Starting point is 02:05:14 and it's, you know, all the awful things. It's alt-right or whatever. Whatever. We're channeling our inner George Carlin. I also want to design a chess set. A culture war chess set. Okay. Where the pawns on one side are a bunch of like fat neckbeards with katanas and like fedoras and dusters.
Starting point is 02:05:29 And then the pawns on the other side are big fat mohawk feminists. And like just make like a chess board for the culture war would be funny. I'll leave that to you. But we are working on a card game. It's going to be really fun. Yeah. To simplify what we're trying to do is it's just going to be pop culture. So it'll be really funny to have Kathy Griffin you know trying to get Joe Rogan banned from the internet and you're going at it
Starting point is 02:05:46 and like you know things like that just silliness parody making fun of people making fun of this whole this whole culture war stuff yep we're working on it now it's coming so uh well we'll see how long it takes you know we we we do a lot of things but maybe maybe soon so uh let's uh let's just grab the last few super chats and then we will sign off for the night. But for now, we're still here. So make sure you hit that Like button. Subscribe and hit the notification bell if you haven't already. And get your Super Chats in, because we're going to be about 10 more minutes.
Starting point is 02:06:12 So let's see what we got. AJ says, my hometown had a special bow hunt season to handle both deer and turkey overpopulation. We had, what's a group of turkeys called? A rafter. A rafter. A rafter. A rafter of turkeys in front of our house oh really yeah a lot it was like what like 10 or 12 yeah you sent me a picture gobbling about why i can hear because of red dead redemption 2 i can hear the warble of a turkey have you ever seen that video where the guy pulls up to all the turkeys
Starting point is 02:06:40 and then goes and then all the turkeys yell back, but it is kind of funny to think about how many animals I've killed in that game. I'm a vegan. Yep. It's just like, every time I'm like, oh yeah, perfect corpse. It's gonna make me so much money. Jmax says, my buddy in the AF had corona-like symptoms and his PCM said it was most likely a cold
Starting point is 02:07:00 or allergies and sent him back to the shop. It's just anecdotal experience, but some military doctors are not competent trained enough to handle this pandemic if it hits our bases hard. Yikes, man. I will also mention real quick, too, before we sign off, make sure you follow us. You can follow me there. You can follow Adam up there. Hey, follow me
Starting point is 02:07:15 right there. That's me. That's my tag. And you can send Adam story ideas and stuff. It's true. Yeah, and we've actually picked up some of them and talked about them. That's also true. Gundanium says, do you think the supply chain, such as truck drivers, are at risk of severe infection by asymptomatic carriers through truck shops and travel? Yes, of course. Yeah. I mean, a lot of travel makes the spread, you know. Graboid says, I disagree with you on a lot of stuff, but at the same time,
Starting point is 02:07:42 you are constant with your views. That is one reason I respect you and watch your channels. But to be fair, like, you know, people's views change. If you go to, if you go back a couple of years, you might see me complaining about, you know, guns. I'm going to be like, no, I think we should definitely have gun control for these reasons. Yeah. And then for reasons I've explained today, I've definitely moved right on the issue. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:08:00 It's funny because Joe Rogan's definitely to the left of me economically. Okay. But to the right of me a lot on 2A. And now I'm coming around on 2A, but I'm not as far left as him in economics. And people can change. Yeah, yeah, yeah. People can change their minds and evolve. Especially when you're dealing with a real crisis and you start to understand why Trump was right about the threat of China, why he was right about national borders, why he was right about manufacturing.
Starting point is 02:08:23 And now we're getting hit with it at the last minute, and you're like, damn. Yeah. Yeah, we should have been on this sooner, huh? So I can respect that. I still do have criticisms for him, of course. Sean R. says, can we finally see the invisible girl? Well, funny thing. Yeah. I ordered a camera. Oh, yeah. And one of the annoying things about it is that Google
Starting point is 02:08:40 ads then start showing nothing but it. So you may have noticed on the other show there were a bunch of ads for skate ramps and stuff. Yeah. It's so annoying. It's like, dude, I bought the thing. You don't need to advertise it to me again. You succeeded.
Starting point is 02:08:51 Stop. What if you want to buy more? No. Yeah, I guess. The same thing again. So we do have a camera coming, but the problem is it's not a set. It's like she's at the production table
Starting point is 02:09:02 handling camera stuff. So we have to actually set stuff up. Like, this is set design stuff that Adam did, so you will get to it. Deplorabology says, we need to stop obeying unconstitutional laws, or we need to figure out how to deal with it because so many things are unconstitutional for sure. That's true. PurpleNerp says, do both, nerds. I don't know what both is a reference to, sorry. Maybe the globe and the UFO.
Starting point is 02:09:24 Oh, right. So I said to give them equal table time. do both nerds i don't know what both is referenced to sorry maybe the globe and the ufo right so i said to give them equal table time where can we put it's hard the ufo is just so much cooler i'm sorry man it's just you know what it would be kind of cool if we superimposed like had it sitting in a spot that it looked like the ufo was landing on the globe and the globe is spinning and the things are you know i mean i mean we do have a lot of space here. And it's not like we have a guest. Forced perspective. Yeah, it'd be good.
Starting point is 02:09:51 Oh, and it's like it's beaming up. That's, I guess, what it's supposed to be. Yep, that was what I was going for. All right. Trinidad says, if you allow community design beanies, good luck with the flood of 4chan designs with plenty of 55 and eggplants. I don't care. Hey, gotta it's gotta be timcast related
Starting point is 02:10:07 i mean i'll i'll take designs and if they let me make me laugh i'm not upset by that well we're definitely we're not gonna sell them we're definitely gonna do that with uh tc that's pretty dope i like that a lot with like a like a dc logo but tc tc i like it nice deplorabology says cops aren't't human. No, they are. Yes, they are. But there are a lot of issues, I definitely think, with the culture, for sure. I've met really cool cops, and I've met really nasty cops. It's a culture issue.
Starting point is 02:10:34 It's a spectrum. Right. They're all out there, all different types. Spupper says, Alabama has doubled their confirmed cases in 24 hours. Oh, yeah, boy. I saw that. It's getting crazy. Yeah. What does it say? I try to be rational, says Ferguson Imperial Colonel predicted deaths
Starting point is 02:10:50 have been revised from five hundred ten thousand to less than 20 K. This is not true. I'm sorry. The apocalyptic numbers are all wrong. Many experts warned of this error. It's not true. I'm sorry. So this guy in I think he's in the UK, what he said after the fact, and maybe it's true, maybe he's not trying to backpedal. But what he said was, based on social distancing, and the measures that are being implemented now, the projection is 20,000 dead. If we do nothing, it's half a million. A bunch of people started saying, Hey, I thought this guy said it was gonna be half a million. Now he's saying it's 20. So then he came out with a Twitter thread saying no, no, no, I'm saying that if we do nothing it'll be 500k and if we do
Starting point is 02:11:26 everything like we're doing now it'll be 20 maybe I don't know I don't know that's what he said I like the lower number if we're going to have to choose yeah Ethan Johansson said calving calving season on the farm at least my quarantine is full of cute calves running around everywhere beef prices

Joe Biden? Yeah. No. Joe Rogan? No. Joe Rogan, yes. Joe Rogan, yes. Yes. Oh, yeah, sure. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:12:49 Rogan, I'd vote for him. Shun says, the fall boots from a portal of the game. You can fall from high altitudes without breaking your bones. I think these are the prototypes to that. That'd be cool. Angry Bellsprout says, isn't it ironic that the resist fascism and ban the fascist crowd are the ones demanding the government force people into their homes? Yeah.
Starting point is 02:13:08 Yeah. About that. It's funny, right? Yeah. Chris, thanks for becoming a member. Thank you. Rob Duper says, the suit would be good for someone with physical limitations. Yeah.

Starting point is 02:13:25 I know about the white rabbit. Yeah. Wink. David Marcella says, you're thinking too small with the exoskeleton. Think about disabled people. Yes, I totally agree. I did not see that. David says, I have 85% left side paralysis.
Starting point is 02:13:37 This could help someone like me. Absolutely. That's cool. For stroke patients, this would be a freaking godsend. Yeah. Paralyze people? Are you kidding? Well, it's like it's War Machine. Yeah. To paralyze people? Are you kidding? Well, it's like War Machine.
Starting point is 02:13:46 Yep. I always think it's as well. In Civil War, when War Machine breaks his spine or whatever, and then he gets the XO stuff to help him walk. Oh, yeah. That's right. It was a really cool line in Endgame when War Machine is with Nebula, and she's like a robot, and she reaches her hand in the thing
Starting point is 02:14:03 and pulls the orb out, and her hand's all burned. Yeah. And she looks at him and says, I wasn't always like this. And he says, me neither. And I was like, oh, that's cool, man. But I was referring to the running faster part of it. It's like, that's what that was for. I think it's cool.
Starting point is 02:14:17 Well, no, it was saving energy. I know. Running more. Oh, okay. Well, I was reading it that they can run 14% faster and it's like, why would you do that? No, they save 40% of their energy. Oh, you're saving more energy. So you can run 40% more.
Starting point is 02:14:28 Ah, okay, okay. Star Wars guy says, Hago, Damask, and Chief Palpatine 2024. Oh, yeah. Great. But he's the Senate. I don't know if he can run for the president. Cord Funk says,
Starting point is 02:14:41 One of the most important lessons young people can learn is that you might change your mind and that's okay. 100%. You don't got to just defend a bad idea. Yep. You can change your mind. It's okay. That's the crazy thing. If someone's like, here, Tim, here's what this is wrong.
Starting point is 02:14:53 I'll go, I did not realize that. Yeah, exactly. So it's like when the background check thing happened, I was like, is that for real? Like they shut it down. I was like, whoa. Not cool. We can't have background checks if they're going to do this. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:15:03 That's crazy. Yeah. And I think I was talking to Crowder about it, too. And I think he brought stuff up like this, and I didn't understand it. The real thing is people need to learn how to drop their pride. Yeah. You know what, man? Stick into it.
Starting point is 02:15:17 Like, well, no, I've been saying this for so long, so I've got to stick to my guns. It's like, well, if you realize you're wrong, wrong drop your pride and people will respect you how else do you improve yourself yeah like if you've been talking about these people that are doing these stupid things and then coming out a couple days later going you know what i'm sorry i was stupid yep i didn't think about this and you're like good on you it's skateboarding man when i try a trick and it's not working i stop and think what am i doing wrong i'm doing something wrong i have to change what i'm doing that's's it, everyone. Dude, I landed nollie varial heel flip,
Starting point is 02:15:48 nollie backside flip today. And I was having a hard time with nollie varial heel flips. Okay. And I was like, what am I not getting? So I changed the way I positioned everything.
Starting point is 02:15:57 So there's like, they tell you, here's how you should put your feet if you're gonna do this one trick. And I was like, nah, I'm gonna put them how I just feel like it right now. I'm gonna ignore everybody else
Starting point is 02:16:04 and I'm gonna figure it out. And then boom, I landed three in a row. Felt good. You did. It was so cool. It's was like, nah, I'm going to put them how I just feel like it right now. I'm going to ignore everybody else and I'm going to figure it out. And then boom, I landed three in a row. Felt good. He did. It was so cool. It's not like the hardest trick in the world.
Starting point is 02:16:09 It's like a fairly, you know, basic, you know, it's like, I guess, technically advanced level. It's not basic. Get out of here. Nollie Varial Heel Flip. Get out of here, dude.
Starting point is 02:16:16 Whatever. No, get out of here. What? Those are way beyond basic. It's not like I did like Nollie Varial Heel Late Flip Revered or something. Oh my gosh.
Starting point is 02:16:24 But a Nollie Backside Flip felt good. Those who don't know how to skateboard are like, what is he talking about? Yeah, it's jargon. Those who are average skateboarders are like, that's not an easy trick. I disagree. Yeah, because you've been skating for 20 years. Longer, no. Thank you.
Starting point is 02:16:40 AJ says, opinion changes happen, but there's usually logical progression or trigger for a flip, for sure sure I hope there's logical progression yeah seriously let's see Plague Runner says hello non-sick people I am coming for you no you not no no no no no no no no Caleb says UFO oh there it is
Starting point is 02:16:56 UFO wins I think UFO did win did it really but I don't know if it's people that didn't know about the globe there's also people going what globe are you claiming that there's voter suppression yes yeah that's exactly it yeah man conspiracy mr paul r says treat everyone as if they're infected stock up on tp lol globe and planet plenty of space in uh plenty of space in the screen maybe yeah maybe both yeah cracklin says do you think naruto had more of a right to be upset for
Starting point is 02:17:25 being rejected by the hidden leaf without a family or sasuke whose entire family was killed sasuke's entire family was killed man and it was by his own brother who spared him and wasn't supposed to so the story is basically that the government this this the the secret police of this village saw this one clan is becoming a growing threat okay so ordered one of them to kill everyone but he couldn't kill his little brother and his little brother goes to become one of the most powerful like fighters okay yeah naruto on the other hand his dad sacrificed his his parents sacrificed their lives trying to save the village from a giant demon of some sort it's hard to explain so i'll just call it a demon and then. And then they trapped the nine-tailed fox within him,
Starting point is 02:18:06 and so he got ostracized for being the embodiment of it, but eventually earns their respect. But what is this question actually about? It's not about their backstory. It's about what... Who had more of a right to be upset. And I said Sasuke. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 02:18:16 The government literally ordered his entire extended family executed. Oh, okay. That's not... Yeah. You know. Konami says the beanie should have a cute pigeon because Tim Pool looks like one. I do think pigeons are funny.
Starting point is 02:18:30 They are pretty great. It would be fun to love a little pigeon guy. Yeah. The Proud A-Hole Migtow says, UFO not Godzilla will wake up soon. John Rosen Generation says, You guys should play Deus Ex and comment on the various predictions the game makes.
Starting point is 02:18:42 It's looking similar to the gray death plague in the game. Never played that game, but I hear good things about it. I heard people talking about that. Democracy says, have you heard of talked about the October 19 global pandemic exercise event 201 yet? I have not. We'll check it out. OPM Studio says, near normalcy in North Carolina.
Starting point is 02:18:59 Kind of surreal watching the rest of the country go into lockdown while we continue our lives almost as though nothing was wrong. Crazy. Sean says, they should make shoes that make you run as fast as Sonic the Hedgehog. Imagine running along the highway, passing cars and traffic jams. Be cool. And then running into other people. Trinidad says, globe is a lie. Flat spinning thing now.
