The invisible lady. I'm Lydia invisible idea. Yes, boy. Do we have a show for you today? Oh my yes, we do. Yeah, we got a lot going on. Actually. It's a it's a crazy Monday You ever hear of a thing called the me too movement? It's getting torn up from the floor up So a couple of the co-founders are fighting right now. Alyssa Milano has exposed herself as, and I'm quoting here,
Starting point is 00:00:29 corrupt DNC fraud. So, you know, we'll get to it. We've got a bunch of other stories, too. We've got to talk about something serious, man. And this is going to be really offensive, and I don't care. Do you guys care about being offensive? No, I speak my mind. We're going to rag on feminists. Intersectional feminists is a difference okay see for the longest time they've been touting
Starting point is 00:00:49 all this body positivity stuff you know who's at risk to die from the coronavirus overweight overweight people like that that's so not surprising yeah and like the uh one of the veritas videos they're talking to a nurse and she's like it's obese people people with diabetes people with lung issues and it's like there it is man so the longest time they've been saying like you can eat whatever you want you can be fat and happy and beautiful and it's like until a global pandemic comes and then they start dying you you have no immune system for it it's not that it's that you can't breathe it's it's a lung it's a breathing issue it's a circulation issue right oxygen going through your blood if your blood is if your bloodstream is clogged but if your bloodstream is you're not getting a lot of
Starting point is 00:01:28 oxygen through anyway let alone putting any sort of tax on your lungs it kind of amplifies the effect so we'll we'll talk about that stuff we've got the rat apocalypse is coming man we'll see what we can get to i know apocalypse yeah so i don't want to laugh because dude remember remember we talked about the monkeys in Thailand? Same thing. Fighting in the streets because there's no food anymore? Yep, here it is. Well, the rats are doing the same thing now.
Starting point is 00:01:50 The rats are coming. People are getting scared. But we do have a really, really serious one, too. YouTube is purging everybody. So that'll probably be the second one after we get to this breaking news bit. But YouTube purged Luke Rutkowski of We Are Change. Gone. Out of the partner program.
Starting point is 00:02:04 Ariel Scarcella, who was a guest on the show, yep so uh i don't know we'll see how long we last yeah but ariel was it was a guest on this show yeah she was and then like a week later like remove her yeah no that just happened last week right yeah yeah just it just happened she just got uh right right right it was like a month ago right a month yeah but you know what i mean yeah relatively i guess it depends on on which news cycle you're following. It feels like it's been 20 years. I know, yeah. But we do have a bunch of stories we'll go through.
Starting point is 00:02:30 But before we get started, hop in the Super Chat if you would like us to read your comments. We'll do our best. When we start getting too many viewers, then it gets harder and harder. But make sure to subscribe. Hit the Like button. We do the show every Monday through Friday at 8 p.m. live. And, yeah, how about we just start talking about Rosemarine going, huh? Sounds good.
Starting point is 00:02:46 Let's do it. So a long time ago, Donald Trump in a it was like a bus or something. Right. And he said that when you're famous, women let you grab them by the, you know, talking about. And this was like a huge deal. Yeah. Everybody was yelling. They were like, we cannot have, you know, the president saying these things.
Starting point is 00:03:04 And to this day, they still use that against them and mock him. Well, well, there's been an accusation against Joe Biden for a while. Joe Biden, as many of you know, is probably going to be the Democratic primary primary, you know, nominee. He's going to win. Well, he's not going to win the general. But apparently there's a story where a woman named Tara Reid was working in his office in the 90s. Joe Biden actually grabbed her, pushed her up against the wall, and then followed through on what Donald Trump had said and grabbed her. And some more, supposedly, right? Went up in there. He went above and beyond. Above and beyond. Just simply grabbing. He went all in there. We try to keep things family-friendly, considering we just talked about YouTube purging everybody. So, you know, we fight within the limits we can, unfortunately.
Starting point is 00:03:46 But Alyssa Milano has just come out in Joe Biden's defense touting the importance of due process, which is ridiculous. Agreed. Considering she was dressed up like a handmaid's tale woman, you know. For the Kavanaugh thing. Protesting the Kavanaugh thing. Yeah, yeah. Saying zero tolerance. But here's where the story gets crazy because that's that's kind of big news she went she
Starting point is 00:04:08 did an interview i think it was with andy cohen and she was like well here's the thing we must believe women but men deserve due process and it's like oh dude oh thanks oh now they do thanks now yeah here's where it gets crazy though rose mcgowan who is considered like another high profile leader of the me too movement okay has just come out and called her like just in the past like hour whatever yeah a corrupt dnc fraud whoo that's crazy it's it's true i feel because like biden is kind of gross and gropey like yeah totally it's like he you can't even hide it it's like every time he's in the presence of a woman, he's sniffing her hair or grabbing her arm. He had to apologize for it. And their face is always like, get away from me, old creepy guy.
Starting point is 00:04:51 It's funny that he's so much worse than Trump in that regard, but she's defending him. I don't get it. But it gets crazier. So we have this is the big breaking news. But you remember Aja Argento? Argento, whatever her name was? No. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:04 She's another she was another like leader asia argento okay she was another me too movement leader she's got cool tats she was accused and she paid out a settlement to this young dude that she was abusing when he was underage oh so now you have you have like complete hypocrisy at the highest level as a me too leader who abused a kid? Yep. Gross. It's almost like they're all hypocrites.
Starting point is 00:05:29 It's messed up. Look at this. Isn't that weird? Look what Alyssa Milano says. She tweeted this. There is something to the idea that people are going to weaponize Me Too for political gain. Just look at the replies here and look to see who those accounts are supporting in the primary. There always needs to be a thorough vetting of accusations.
Starting point is 00:05:47 Wow. Talk about disgusting, vile, evil, manipulative, con artist. Wow. How else do you describe that? What's the end goal of being a vile slime bag? And I don't really insult people, but i'm going for the emotional reaction here man oh and why is alissa milano any known for anything anyway she's famous actress for from what she's well so i don't i don't think i've seen anything you're making a mistake i'm just i'm just hey
Starting point is 00:06:16 this is me i don't know who she is i never watched anything with her in it wasn't what's charmed i don't know what that is some witch show yeah i never you know what it is yeah i never watched it though but i i didn't know that she was one of the ones on it wasn't she on some show in the 80s when she's a little kid i have no idea no this is sorry it's a mistake to say oh i don't know who she is because she's still working actively in hollywood i'm just i'm just making fun i'm just curious i don't know who she is like why she's a celebrity and she's got a ton of followers and and she's a high-profile activist. And she's a fair-weather activist, it seems. No, no, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:06:50 That's not fair. No? Fair-weather activists at least get up sometimes for the cause. Okay. What she's doing is manipulating people for political brownie points. Yeah, that's a good point. Check this out. So Rose McGowan, I think we'll just pull up the tweet from Rose.
Starting point is 00:07:02 You are a fraud. This is about holding... Oh, wait, wait, wait. What is this? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Wow. Amazing. Harsh words. Let's pull up the tweet from Rose. You are a fraud. This is about holding. Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait. What is this? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Wow. Amazing. So let's let's just pull the tweet straight up.
Starting point is 00:07:09 I had the story, but we'll show we'll pull up the tweet. Yeah, man. I have I have respect for Rose. She says in response to Alyssa Milano saying I explained my silence on the allegations against Joe Biden. She goes, you are a fraud. This is about holding the media accountable. You go after Trump and Kavanaugh saying, believe victims. You are a lie.
Starting point is 00:07:26 You have always been a lie. The corrupt DNC is in on the smear job of Tara Reid. So are you, shame. Oh, Rose McGowan. She is being consistent. I was just watching an interview of her from when the whole Me Too thing started, and she was not on good terms with Alyssa then. She literally said
Starting point is 00:07:42 you are a lie. She's lying. She's called her out before. Yeah, she has. During the Kavanaugh thing, she was doing it. Yeah, I think it was closer to the time that was going on. She's like, yeah, you're getting fame from this and that's all you care about. Wow. You false flag. Rose actually invested it. I'm impressed. Dang. I dig it. She burned her. I appreciate
Starting point is 00:07:58 that. Nailed her. Let's see if we can put, like, people are responding. Look at this tweet. Someone tweeted this at her. Zero tolerance. If we don't hold, oh no, I think this might be a fake tweet be a fake tweet yeah zero well so here's what she's here here's what they're reporting she tweeted zero tolerance if we don't hold all accountable for horrible behavior nothing changes sorry al franken you should not be in a position to represent the female constituents in your state that might be real i don't know if i can check i can look yeah because because someone said i fixed it me too And I don't know if this is different or whatever.
Starting point is 00:08:27 But a bunch of people have been highlighting past tweets she made. She's saying it's a smear. Oh, it's a conspiracy. Of course it is. What's your tag? Oh, okay. Yeah. Alyssa Milano believes it's a conspiracy to smear the campaign.
Starting point is 00:08:39 Probably a Russian conspiracy. Is that what it is? Is that? Yes. And Warren not endorsing Bernie when their policies line up to me means she was telling the truth about what he said. You know what, man? She said, I believe women. It is my opinion that you can't conflate the violent criminal assault described by Dr. Ford and an uncomfortable invasion of personal space and boundaries described by Flores.
Starting point is 00:09:00 These two things aren't the same no matter how hard your network tries to spin it. You know what the allegations against Brett Kavanaugh were? What? That when he was a teenager at a party, he threw a young woman on the bed and him and his buddy jumped on top of her and then she ran away. Oh. She said like, he held her down. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:09:16 And then his buddy jumped on him. They rolled over and she got up and ran off. No witness corroborated it. Okay. Her friend said, I don't remember what you're talking about. She didn't know where it happened. It was 36 years agoated it. Okay. Her friend said, I don't remember what you're talking about. She couldn't, she didn't know where it happened. It was 36 years ago or something.
Starting point is 00:09:28 Okay. She didn't know how she got there. She didn't know where it was. She didn't know how she got home and no one corroborated anything. And not only that, but Christine Blasey Ford, I'm going to say it,
Starting point is 00:09:37 she lied. She said that, and already I know that there's much people who on the left are triggered listening to this. Yeah. Well, she said she was afraid to fly following this stuff. Okay. And then someone asked her, like, don't you fly all the time for work?
Starting point is 00:09:49 And she goes, yes. It's like, wait, what? Wait a second. She claimed that she got, like, a second door installed in her house because she's terrified now. She was traumatized. It's like, dude, you're, like, you're 50. Wait, now, 36 years later, she's now traumatized? Or she's always been?
Starting point is 00:10:01 Yeah, always been, I guess. And then someone else came out and said that the reason she got the door installed in her house was because she was airbnb-ing it well she was running her business right the other side of her house yeah like the whole thing was just fraud and guess what you end up with this this you know woman check out these photos this is from robbie starbuck he tweeted uh this is the same melissa milano who told you to believe women she used assault allegations as a weapon against political opponents with zero evidence now she won't drop her endorsement of joe b he was credibly accused, I love that, by his former staff of assault. Look at this.
Starting point is 00:10:32 She dresses like, you know, the Handmaid's Tale. It's so stupid. See, now the reason I brought up who is this person, it's not because of, like, is she someone of someone that we can listen to. It's like anyone can be if they have the right opinion but i see her doing this kind of stuff and it's a publicity stunt totally that's what i'm aiming at you know it's like yeah so that's what it is it's like she she had her chance to get in the light and she everyone was was uh making memes of her sitting behind like in the courtroom yep you know and i don't remember she had had like a paper holding up. They put different things
Starting point is 00:11:05 on the paper or whatever. It's like people were talking about her. Spotlight. 3.69 million followers. Right. That's what it's all about. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:13 Follow me. Raising her profile. Yep. So she can get access. Now she's not going to be an A-lister, you know, because this is poison.
Starting point is 00:11:21 Yeah. Movies aren't going to look at... I mean, they've danced around it they've tried doing some of this stuff yeah she if she wanted to act she could probably get a job in like a she is acting a c-list horror film no she's doing like netflix and amazon like house on the haunted hill eight no no no no no she's doing legit stuff maybe if that sure she's doing legit stuff what was the last movie she was in want to pull up want to pull up imdb yeah let's do it i'm just it's it's it's a mistake to go down this route to try and argue that i just don't like
Starting point is 00:11:50 she's a d-list or something no no no all i was saying is that this seems like everything that is that i see about her is a publicity stunt i just want more attention you know yeah why why would she go for biden right? Makes absolutely no sense. Other than look how many people are talking about her again. She's on a she's on a TV series from 2018 to 2019 called Insatiable Imaginary Lines 2020. She's in post-production on two projects. She's in a miniseries. So but it's not even an argument.
Starting point is 00:12:21 It's not an argument to be like you're a washed up actress. I don't like that argument. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. I'm not even saying that whether she's washed even an argument. It's not an argument to be like, you're a washed up actress. I don't like that argument. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. I'm not even saying that, whether she's washed up or not. I mean, I can honestly say I've never watched any of these things that she's been in. But still, she has all this influence. She's been in a lot of stuff, man.
Starting point is 00:12:36 Dude, she was in, hold on, hold on. No, you're wrong. You've never seen Beverly Hills Chihuahua 2? No. She was the voice of Bimini in Beverly Hillsly hills chihuahua i remember now that's where i know her from oh right she was what else she was in ghostbusters the video game you're right she was in she was in my name is earl i take nothing back she was yeah my name is earl actually used to like that show i think charmed was like the biggest thing she did in recent
Starting point is 00:13:02 history but she was on spin city she was in recent history, but she was on Spin City. She was in Melrose Place briefly. She did a bunch of Melrose Place. Didn't she do like a big show? There we go. Yeah. Who's the boss? There it is.
Starting point is 00:13:11 Okay. Yeah. She was Shmelantha. Shmelantha? Yeah. Shmelantha. Is that how they pronounced it? No, that's how Rick and Morty pronounced it. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:13:21 Shmelangela? Shmelanthony? So yeah, a lot of people, they try to do like an emotional attack against her yeah and it actually empowers her side because when you attack someone based on something that's complete nothing to do with anything it's like you're proving my point no no it's just the people on the people like any any like look the tribalists are never going to give up their position no matter what okay but if there's a regular person who doesn't know and they see her saying something like this man was accused and then you go you're just a washed up actress then immediately you've lost you've you've you've left the argument you're not talking about what she's doing you're just trying to call her a
Starting point is 00:13:57 stupid dumb dumb you're not that's all it is you might as well call her a poopoo face yeah well okay that's fair yeah let's talk about what she really is. That's funny. Now, in the context of her trying to raise her profile, I think it's fair to bring up that the projects she's done are not A-list. Okay. You know, the stuff she's been doing as of late, it's like Netflix and Amazon stuff, so it's not like, I mean, hey, man, I'd love to be on Netflix or Amazon. It works, works, works. Well, no,
Starting point is 00:14:17 I mean, getting on like a Netflix show, that's not bad, right? A lot of people. Hint, hint, Netflix, hey-o, hit them him up no but uh it's it's clear that she's going for some kind of publicity look at her look at her look at her twitter picture it's it's it's it's her doing activism never kavanaugh resist but she is this this to me it should be proof to. Her mission has nothing to do with helping women, helping people, fighting for a cause. It's not even about fighting for the DNC.
Starting point is 00:14:50 It's about just shilling for the biggest opportunity. So she wants to pony up to the wealthy elites, the corporatists, the establishment. Anybody who thinks Joe Biden is a viable candidate is lying. Period. Period. I can agree with that. Yeah, for sure. And this is why, you know, we can actually use it to segue into how they're starting to purge other YouTube channels. This is why they don't like it. Because the establishment, the big businesses that love propping up people like, you know, Joe Biden, that's what they're for.
Starting point is 00:15:20 That's what they want. YouTubers, podcasters, you you'll notice have no problem saying joe biden that's insane yeah like look at uh joe rogan the other day yeah you saw what he said yeah and now there's articles coming out joe rogan's the canary in the coal mine he embodies bernie or bust he says a couple months ago i'd probably vote for bernie now today's like i'd rather vote for trump because bernie's out right yeah this is what's happening with bernie people is bernie officially out no No, but... He won't.
Starting point is 00:15:45 Yeah, I didn't think he was. The establishment's not going to let Bernie. What's he going to do? No, I mean, look, man. I got my issues with Bernie's policies. We can have a debate over his policies. I think he's flip-flopped on certain things, but the dude can speak English. True.
Starting point is 00:15:58 That's all I'm asking. And clear. Yeah, at this point. It's understandable. You saw what Trump said about Biden on you know, on Saturday or whatever. Yeah, it was funny. So for those that don't know, at the press briefing, he was asked, you know, Joe Biden tweeted this about you. And he goes, Joe Biden didn't tweet anything about me. He didn't write that. A Democratic operative wrote that. He's not even watching this right now. And even if he was, he wouldn't understand it supposedly they had a long talk today they did about uh biden giving his expertly
Starting point is 00:16:28 vice president advice to trump which is an interesting way that they're spinning it you know what i imagine happening i imagine like the phone rings and trump answers and joe's like hello and trump's like how's it going and then joe starts muttering he's like you know donald the thing with you know we have the the case and and and dependency with the shortages and trump just puts the phone down and then just like starts like does other stuff playing on his phone he starts sending tweets out yep and then joe's just saying like see joe's saying words right that don't mean anything when you combine them right so it's like that's called words no no no actually no actually he said he said sakes sakes sakes
Starting point is 00:17:06 what does that mean i don't know for pete's sakes no no he said we will never let america sakes second fiddle he he mixed two words what yeah like second intakes i don't know nobody said second i don't know was he was if he was going to say take why is there an s at the end of it anyway back back to the main point. And we can move on to like the YouTube stuff. I don't know. Think about how insane that all sounds. Any honest person will tell you, like, even somebody who doesn't like Trump.
Starting point is 00:17:36 Like, you look at these progressive personalities. People like, you know, Jimmy Dore, Kyle Kulinski. They do not like Trump. And there's a reason why they're for Bernie. They're like, any honest person is going to look at Biden and be like, what? You want him to lead us? You want to put him next to Trump on a stage? What, are you making a sideshow? I'll pay to see that.
Starting point is 00:17:54 I honestly would. Five bucks. It would be entertaining to watch that. No, it's elder abuse. Yeah, that's right. I agree. I agree. I didn't put him up there.
Starting point is 00:18:04 Exactly. I'm not the one saying, biden you should run for president i don't know who is telling him but trump versus biden would be it's melissa milano endorsing him even after he was accused look we can we can feel bad for him as a doting old you know i don't i'm not i don't feel bad for him he's doing it he's running himself i don't feel bad for him. He's doing it. He's running himself. I don't know. He still has the choice to run or not. He's still a human that's alive, I think. As far as I can tell. Look, man, the guy can't speak.
Starting point is 00:18:33 I can barely tell that he is alive still. I don't think he's cognizant. He's like Weekend at Bernie's, but Weekend at Biden's. Yeah, dude, it's totally Weekend at Biden's. He's being propped up by the establishment. If the next time we see him he has dark shades on yo dude time has come part of me thinks that like every time he goes on the air there's like some young dnc people like laughing like did you hear what he just said like get him
Starting point is 00:18:59 to say it again get him to say it again joe say this and joe's just like and they're like laughing like it's a joke like this there can't be any look he's got people working for him right yeah they have to know his mind is jello right they have to what does she think like oh he's you know
Starting point is 00:19:18 he's an old guy you know like we gotta give the due process do you think they paid her off like oh you know what we can get to her and have her like back him up so that she'll bring the whole me too movement to like not you know bring this whole thing to like a big thing that ruins biden's chances you know i'd like to you know i'd like to accuse her i guess but i have no proof so without evidence i will not i'll just say that there's I don't think there's
Starting point is 00:19:47 any sane person on the planet who thinks she's being honest. And this is what this is why Trump Trump's approval rating goes up because you see people like her and you're like, dude, you can't you like, come on, man, if you want to lie, come up with a better lie than that. Yeah. Yeah. Seriously. She's like she's like the sky is green and you're like it's it's not it's like it is yeah it's it's not green i know i can see it like seven months ago you were telling me it was blue and it's still blue it's it's this is what the craziest thing is to me there have been several instances where the media has done things like this that they repeatedly come out and say you know trump's response to the you know the covid outbreak is terrible and he's doing really bad.
Starting point is 00:20:25 And I'm like, the polls show that most Americans like this. Right. You coming out and telling them to their face that, no, it's actually really bad, is not going to change their minds. It's going to make them not trust you because they've already made up their minds and they were asked about it and they said they like this. Yeah, yeah. Like the way I described it before is like, imagine you have this really delicious slice
Starting point is 00:20:43 of pizza. I love the pizza analogy. And you're like, this is so delicious. And also Mana goes, it's actually not delicious. Oh, here, yeah. Like the way I described it before is like, imagine you have this really delicious slice of pizza. I love the pizza analogy. And you're like, this is so delicious. And also Mana goes, it's actually not delicious. Oh, here, here. I'll be the news. I'll be the news. You be you eating pizza.
Starting point is 00:20:52 I am. I am eating this pizza. Hello, Tim. Do you like your pizza? I absolutely love it. This just in, Tim does not like his pizza at all. Exactly. Pizza is bad for you.
Starting point is 00:21:00 You've got to falsely frame it. Wait. You've got to be like. Just right. Fact check. Did Tim actually say he liked his pizza cold no and then you do this really long-winded speech about that's if you're snopes you know right yeah right i was going for the whole media where they just like i'm just gonna give them what we want them to give. He hates pizza. Opinion. Well, he does like pizza.
Starting point is 00:21:28 There's no evidence to suggest he likes all pizza all the time everywhere. Therefore, it's improper to say he likes pizza. Or that he loves pizza. Or he loves pizza. You know what, man? For those wondering, he actually really likes pizza. He does, yes. I do like pizza. No fake news here. Watch that.
Starting point is 00:21:44 Pizza's really yummy. Everybody likes pizza. You can take bread and put sauce put anything on and you're like it's pretty good yeah i think take two of you put it together you have a sandwich but who do you think alissa milano was trying to is like do you think there are people in this country that are sitting there and she comes out and says joe biden's gonna be a great president and they're like wow that's a good point. No, absolutely not. No. No. Right. Who or why should I hear what you have to say about this? Because, you know, the whole thing is that she's she was in such a prominent place for
Starting point is 00:22:15 the Me Too movement. And now it's almost like she's throwing that all out of the window just to endorse Biden. I don't think she is. I think this is a really clever publicity stunt. Yeah. Like, for example, right now we are talking about her that's what i was saying yeah that's what the first thing i said is like nail this publicity it's like and who's talking about her everybody when i when i when i think of her i don't think of like some like angelic visage coming down from the heavens with a beacon of light i see that old lady from uh princess bride going joe biden for president and i'm like
Starting point is 00:22:48 i don't know man she's pretty cringy yeah i don't know but this brings me to the next point we'll get the super chats but uh the next the next thing we're gonna talk about is you'll you'll here you know what i find why is that when joe biden comes out in the media and he goes, the thing about the president and with COVID, we got to get the cars because the shortage, when he says stuff like that and you're like, what? The media corrects him without correctness. What they'll do is he'll mutter and mumble and then the headline will say, Joe Biden calls for swift action on coronavirus. You're like, no, he didn't. He said something about driving cars during the crisis. Like what? But driving a car is about moving quickly. So but look at the headlines when they write about Biden. He'll go on MSNBC or The
Starting point is 00:23:35 View or something. He'll just incoherently mumble. And then they'll write this puff piece explaining what they think he was actually saying. That's a good point, because I'll read the headline and I'm like, that's not what he said. I don't remember Joe saying that. Am I getting dementia? What's going on here? I don't like this. But think about dementia. Think about this.
Starting point is 00:23:53 If they start getting rid of channels like this one, getting rid of people like Luke and many other people they've gotten rid of. Yeah. How long until they control the narrative again like the old days? Yeah. Yeah. When everyone just watched the three different news channels yep and all someone had to do is call all three channels and be like this is what you're reporting now yep and then they were like hey american public we're trustworthy this is what's happening so let's jump to the super chats and then and the next time we'll get to is they're purging a bunch of youtubers and it's getting it's getting to that
Starting point is 00:24:24 point where it's actually getting pretty scary. Agreed. Jim Watari says, I need two hours of distraction. Well, here you go, sir. Here we are. You've got it. Dark Ranch said, good afternoon. Hope you're having a good day.
Starting point is 00:24:34 What is the secret that you use to power the beanies? Battery and car batteries and jumper cables. Oh, man. Seems uncomfortable. Red Beard says, YouTube has been promoting a lot of your old videos on my app lately, including a 12-year-old video of you skating in a warehouse.
Starting point is 00:24:49 That's from my buddy, Brett Novak. Yeah. It was actually 13 years ago because he uploaded it, like, later. Right, right. And my name's in it,
Starting point is 00:24:56 so for some reason they're promoting it like crazy. You know what it is? They blacklisted my channel. Oh. Yeah, you can't... So when they type your name in, that's popping up.
Starting point is 00:25:04 You can't Google search my channel. You can Google't type your name in that's popping up you can't google search my channel you can google you can google search this one because it's new but timcast and timcast news don't even come up on google so when people start searching for tim pool that's the video that comes up because they don't show they do show my main channels and stuff though okay but this one it's crazy because when the video was when it was first put up was the early days of youtube had like a few thousand views and i think i'm like 18 in it 18 or 19 yeah now it's crazy because when the video was first put up, it was the early days of YouTube, it had like a few thousand views. And I think I'm like 18 in it. 18 or 19. Yeah. Now it's got almost 200,000. Nice.
Starting point is 00:25:30 And it's not even a good, like, it was a great It's pretty good. I watched it. I love that video. You got some clean tricks in it. Well, for me, 20 years, you know, six, what is it, 13 years later. I can still see your skating style. It's really crisp and clean though. It hasn't changed. I could film a such better video that's why i'm like let's do it watching this
Starting point is 00:25:48 old people are asking i'm sure well i don't know well i know brett no no people have asked you guys want it right i'm waiting for brett what i could i made videos we're gonna do when brett when when when world cameras the world famous skate video producer brett novak i got nothing on brett you're right brett i got nothing on brett i don't know if you guys have seen his videos they're amazing though he's probably check them out as the most the best film uh cinematographer in skateboarding yeah you're right like i don't know anyone who does it like he does there's a lot of good filmers for skateboarding yeah but brett makes like movies like one of the ones he did is time moves backwards but the skateboarder moves forwards.
Starting point is 00:26:25 That one's amazing. So I hit him up, and I was like, bro, you got to come hang out. And we're going to hang out on the show or something. Arbor Skateboards did some really cool videos. They're similar and shorter. His are a little bit longer. And not all of them, actually. Artsy.
Starting point is 00:26:40 There's an Arbor Skateboards video of me in New York, and that was done by a Canadian named Ali. I don't remember his last name but he did a really good job on it and it reminds me of Brett's videos they're kind of they're flowy they feel like a story it really takes you into the environment and yeah it's good but you should check him out if you don't
Starting point is 00:26:58 know Brett Novak yeah he's great his channel is Bragic B-R-A-G-I-C I got a couple videos, too. I got a couple single trick videos on his short-sighted series. Word. Yeah. Daniel says, Alyssa Milano exposed herself.
Starting point is 00:27:13 That's hot. Yeah. Yeah, but not in the good way, in the awful political way. So All Metal Mike says, Jan feds arrest C. Lieber, Harvard professor, nanosciences, and two Chinese nationals for lying. Harvard owns largest percentage of coronavirus nanotechnology patents. Possible. They use nanotech to transmit the virus.
Starting point is 00:27:32 I really, really doubt it. I would never put money on a bet for anything like that. However, there was this interaction recently from Trump where he asked a reporter if she worked for China. And she said she worked for a private company out of Hong Kong. And he says, was it owned by China? And she said, no. And now a bunch of people are pointing out that the Hong Kong company's principal,
Starting point is 00:27:51 one of the chief officers, used to be in the Chinese military. Dude, there are a bunch of Chinese spies that are sowing discord and messing around. So the arrests are legit. Press briefings now? I guess. Great. These people in on the press. So the arrests are legit. Press briefings now? Apparently. I guess. Great.
Starting point is 00:28:05 These people, in on the take, treason, man. Kaj says, if Boris dies from, I believe he meant dies, says, dies from Corona leaked bioweapon in Britain,
Starting point is 00:28:14 we'll have grounds to kick off World War III, let the nuclear Armageddon begin. Well, I don't think it was a bioweapon. I think, this is really funny. You want,
Starting point is 00:28:22 we're going to talk about YouTube. All right. YouTube straight up says, you cannot say that coronavirus was made in a lab. They'll demonetize you. The Washington Post and the Daily Mail both ran articles saying it's possible this originated in a lab with an accidental exposure due to a naturally occurring virus in bats, accidentally got exposed. I talk about it. I get demonetized. I can't even read the mainstream news because YouTube is not news. So their staff are two weeks behind the mainstream media. I'm talking about mainstream news reports. They demonetize me. So YouTube's breaking its own rules. YouTube says you can't go against scientific
Starting point is 00:29:02 consensus. Oh, well, then YouTube just went against it because i was reading the washington post yep that's the that's the game youtube's playing right now yeah and you'll get banned and they'll delete your account you'll get you lose all your revenue and everything ceylon says man what will the uk be like if boris dies for those i don't know prime minister of uk boris johnson is in the icu and we're all wishing him the best. Yep. Alyssa, uh, 11 Bravo says Alyssa Milano. Oh no, Mr. Bill left is insane. Says today I lost my job. I got in a car accident and accidentally ate peanuts, which I'm allergic to causing my throat to swell.
Starting point is 00:29:33 Today was great. Whoa. Are you in the hospital? You all right? Sorry to hear. Yeah, we're here to make it better. Well, we're here to complain about a bunch of stuff and hopefully that's some kind of, some kind of catharsis.
Starting point is 00:29:42 Sorry, dude. K98 says the rent strike isn't entitlement, but righteous indignation at being told to eat cake. The landed aristocrats told them to suffer alone, unpatriotic. The rent strike thing is interesting because the way I see it is some landlords, sure. Some rich people, sure. But most of these rental management companies in New York are not massive, super rich people. It's like medium-sized businesses with 20, 30 employees or something.
Starting point is 00:30:11 Actually, that's a small business, I'm pretty sure. Yeah, my apartment that I lived in New York before I left was a house that privately was owned by the original owner who moved down to Florida to retire. And she was just like this 78-year-old woman who was very nice, and we paid her direct. She couldn't afford that. So, well, here's the story. A company sent out an email to all of its tenants saying, you know, this big thing about, like, here's where you can get help if you're hurting,
Starting point is 00:30:39 if you lost your job, but you do have to pay rent. While evictions are frozen for now, they will not be, you know, frozen indefinitely. Right. And rent is due. And so they're all like going like, yeah, rent strike because now we have everyone's email addresses and we can all come together. And I'm like, you know, these people think that landlord isn't a job. Right.
Starting point is 00:31:00 They move into a place for a year on a year lease and they move out. Who's going to maintain that building for the 30 plus years of that mortgage? Who's going to pay the mortgage, the taxes, utilities, the groundskeeper, the manager, all that stuff? Right. Groundskeeper. So what they're basically saying, I was like, imagine if a bunch of people showed up to a grocery store and said, food strike. And then just started taking food. It's like, I mean, you could.
Starting point is 00:31:22 I get it. Isn't that happening in San Francisco right now? It's happening in New York. Well, it's Sicily. Oh, yeah. Sicily, right. No, but I don't see that. They don't have a choice.
Starting point is 00:31:29 Look, I understand that people need shelter. But if you're getting a stimulus package, four months paid from the government, then how do you justify not paying rent? Right. I get it. People are hurting. Not everybody can. You know, but I think regardless of what happens,
Starting point is 00:31:46 I don't even, I don't actually even care if they do the rent strike for the most part. And you shouldn't, I mean, you could, if you want, if you want to, the important point is that it's happening. This is, this is, this is a first step in like the complete breakdown. They don't pay. Then the rental management companies don't pay. Then their employees get laid off and their employees don't pay and it is a ripple effect that just takes everything down with it. Yeah, it's a precedent that I don't like to see. Yep. Nikolai says, Tim, with the need to bring
Starting point is 00:32:12 manufacturing of critical drugs and medical equipment back to the country, have you re-evaluated Congress buying a bunch of extra M1 Abrams MBT to keep the last tank factory operational? I don't know. I would have to, I don't know, would have to i don't know go over that i think that has to do with like them building a bunch of tanks all the time okay i guess i don't
Starting point is 00:32:31 know trump's trump loves the military he's he's buying a bunch of bullets and stuff let's see what does it say outlet zero says if the hypothesis about the wuhan fever leaking from the bio lab turns out to be true what do you think the world will demand from china and do you think china would even comply with said demands? They would not. Apparently, there was some story where, so an expert from Rutgers. This is what's really annoying. Okay, YouTube, we're going to demonetize you if you say this.
Starting point is 00:32:54 Yeah, okay. Well, an expert from Rutgers, someone who specializes in infectious disease, said that Wuhan's lab was operating under a level two security instead of level four. And that's why there in the past had been concerns about breaches. Okay. That's an expert from a major university talking to the Washington Post and said that YouTube punishes me because of it. Like years ago too.
Starting point is 00:33:15 Years ago? Yeah. Like it happened a long time ago. Yeah. Like 2017. That's what I'm saying. So the Washington Post gets a quote from a guy from a university. I say it.
Starting point is 00:33:23 YouTube flags my video. Confirmed. Knocked down. YouTube. So stupid. Confirmed. Knocked down. YouTube, so stupid. You should save it for the next segment. No, it's because, right, right, right, right. Let's see what we got here. Shino Jima says, hey guys, love your work.
Starting point is 00:33:35 Hope you all stay safe. Thank you. We are because we are homebodies. Appreciate it. Yep. Redbeard says, do you think the Ohio state rep has learned the ICC has no jurisdiction over non-party states, i.e. the US? I bet she knows now.
Starting point is 00:33:45 Did you see what happened? A state rep from Ohio called for Trump to face the International Criminal Court in The Hague, which the U.S. doesn't recognize, and it has no jurisdiction. And she called for this because Trump said that hydroxychloroquine may work or may not work at a press conference. So she called for him to face the charges of crimes against humanity. Meanwhile, Andrew Cuomo is administering the treatment with moderate success. And being glorified. And where is she?
Starting point is 00:34:16 And get this thing. Another resistance Twitter guy said that Trump has already satisfied involuntary manslaughter, but is actually broaching grounds for second-degree murder. Wait, is that because of that Arizona couple? Right. So she actually succeeded in pitching off her husband's murder onto someone else. No, no, we don't know that. We don't know that.
Starting point is 00:34:40 Conspiracy. Yeah, I don't know. Here's how the game is played. They want clicks. They want likes. They want likes they want follows so you gotta up the ante yeah so if someone comes out and says trump should be charged for crimes against humanity the next person can't say the same thing they say as a prosecutor i think it's murder that's right and it's like are you kidding dude yeah you people are insane george w bush dick cheney bar Barack Obama, none of them have faced any charges for anything they did. And you think the orange man will face charges because you recommended a drug that's actually already approved in this country for other uses, is actually recommended in other countries, and has been approved by the FDA for emergency use.
Starting point is 00:35:21 That's your grounds for... It's already being used. There's already a medicine out there that you can use, but you have to get it from a doctor. Yeah. Wow. What a surprise.
Starting point is 00:35:31 Yeah, you can't just find it on the shelf. This is what I love about politics, and I mean this not seriously. Oh, man. Barack Obama's all like,
Starting point is 00:35:39 you know, they had a thing called Terror Tuesdays where they would bring what was called the disposition matrix. They called it like baseball cards of terror, and he would choose who to kill. So, you know, sure enough, one day they go on Tuesday to Mr. Barack Obama, and they're like, they lay out the folders.
Starting point is 00:35:55 I don't know exactly what it was like, but, you know, they give him the options. And he's like, hmm, yes, this person right here I believe we should kill and then he pointed out a civilian cafe in yemen where his administration then blew it up killing a 16 year old american citizen named abdulrahman al-alaki and there was not not not a single voice cried out that he should face well i'm kidding tons of activists have been screeching about this for a long time yeah yeah but now these these democrats you know these establishment types are just you know know, do-do-do-do-do. Oh, but Trump recommended a medication the FDA approved? Lock them up.
Starting point is 00:36:30 That's politics today. And where was that small, was it a small country that was? Yemen. Yemen? Oh, yeah. No, no. The girl from Ohio was trying to bring them up charges. In what place?
Starting point is 00:36:40 Oh, in the Netherlands? Yeah. Was there someone in the Netherlandslands that like took the medicine it has nothing to do with them it's because the hog is the international criminal court oh okay but the u.s doesn't recognize it it has no jurisdiction here it's like it's like a european thing but it's the medicine's actually working though well it's anecdotal positive results okay and in china it's it's it's being used in various countries it's being used in various countries. It's being used. The CDC, it's all on the CDC's website. And this is grounds for Trump to be charged under the, you know,
Starting point is 00:37:09 crimes against humanity statutes and then murder charges. No, these people are literally insane. I don't get it. And these are the ones who are like, I'm voting for Biden. It's like, you are not well. But, you know, it's not the Bernie people. The Bernie people, for the most part, while they don't like trump right like look at these people like they're lunatics and they are lunatics i agree or they're liars and manipulators well well i don't know lunatics you know are it has something
Starting point is 00:37:37 to do with the moon that's true let's be honest you know yeah isn't that a reference to like when the full moon comes out they go crazy that's true yeah lun reference to like when the full moon comes out, they go crazy? It's true, yeah. Lunatics. The root word. When the moon comes out, police forces up the amount of police on duty. Yeah, it's the same in the hospital. But you know why, probably? Same in hospitals. Yeah. It's probably because it's brighter out. Aren't we made of water? Yes, we are. Doesn't the moon
Starting point is 00:37:58 pull the entire ocean around when it swings around us? Don't you think it affects us a little bit? That was kind of my theory. I think it's brighter out. It pulls us a little bit. Brighter out,'s brighter out it pulls us it pulls us a little bit brighter out you can see i think it pulls us a little all right we're being we're being levitated it pulls on your beanie a little you gotta admit it yeah it's true all right let's get let's get through some more of these zachary says kyle again the h is for human i'd like to present to you the paradoxodon a dinosaur that only exists when you don't believe in it. All right.
Starting point is 00:38:25 Very fun. Chuck Morris says, seven big cats in the Brooklyn Zoo have SARS-CoV-2. Oh, man. Can we stop a flu that all mammals have? Did we destroy the world economy for nothing? Man, I don't know. The Art of the Real says, support for what you do. Appreciate it, good sir.

Starting point is 00:38:53 Had a convo with her? I don't know. A journalist, probably. I think it sounds. But Crowder dug into this. And I think he might have even broke the first hint to this that it's being alleged, rumors. She was abusing her husband, tried to divorce him. Sure enough,
Starting point is 00:39:10 he drinks poison and dies. A lethal dose. Crazy. She was not a Trump fan. This was covered by a bunch of other people. She had previously posted to Facebook that Trump was psycho. Why would she then think he's a psycho and then see him on the TV and be like, I will eat fish cleaner? It doesn't make sense, I will eat fish cleaner. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:25 It doesn't make sense. Don't eat fish cleaner. You know what, Mary? What's the way women murder more than any other way? It tends to be poisoning. Isn't it poisoning? Isn't it poisoning? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:35 Just saying. Yeah. I'm not saying anything. Another quick mystery. Conspiracy. Conspiracy. That's who we got. Zebian says,

Student of History says, I'm on the side of rose mcgowan this is weird bro i know right also i'm surprised someone hasn't had a strongly worded conversation with joe biden between the small children sniffing and then ash carter's wife they did he apologized he did a public statement where he's like you know weird it's it's old days and the things i used to do and i'll do better this time. And they're like, good. And then he gets up on stage, grabs someone's shoulders and goes.
Starting point is 00:40:47 It's like, didn't they just tell you? He's gross. He's nasty, man. Yeah. So, you know what? He makes me uncomfortable and he's not grabbing me. Donald Trump doesn't make me comfortable. I feel bad for all those girls.
Starting point is 00:40:58 When I hear the allegations against Trump, I'm like, grab him, all that stuff. I'm like, yeah, Joe Biden is accused of actually doing it. And on camera.

No. All right, what do we got here? Katie Bell says, why would Americans listen to people who get paid to pretend to be something they are not? Fair point. I mean, they're the epitome of fakers. Seriously. No. All right. What do we got here? Katie Bell says, why would Americans listen to people who get paid to pretend to be something they are not?

Starting point is 00:42:12 knew that. And just like keep scrolling. I'm like, no, no, but what else do I say? You know? And I'm like, do people even know who Rose McGowan and Alyssa Milano are? It's not even necessarily the Me Too movement. It's Alyssa Milano in this situation. But she started it.
Starting point is 00:42:24 Oh, she started the whole movie? She started the whole thing. She's the number patient zero? She tweeted. She tweeted, if every woman would tweet hashtag Me Too, blah, blah, blah. Oh, okay. So she started it. She started everything.
Starting point is 00:42:36 And it was a sham. I guess it's a sham. Yep. Because now she's endorsing it. She straight up went from like, assault his bed to... Maybe it's okay. It's okay if Joe Biden does it. Yeah, basically.
Starting point is 00:42:48 So it's like... Wait a second. Yeah. That's all I'm seeing from all her tweets trying to explain it. Here's an excellent one. Viva Celestia says, I wish Biden would sniff my hair. Yeah. You'd get punched in the mouth.
Starting point is 00:43:01 David says, times like these that I like to think of the good old days when you were a bedroom journalist and had that sick outro music. Bring back the old music. We're working on new music. Yes, we are. Yeah. Lots of new music's
Starting point is 00:43:13 going to be coming from this place. The good old days. Yep. Yeah. Joey says, anyone else a little suspicious that the Who's director's sister
Starting point is 00:43:21 is the managing director of the International Monetary Fund? I honestly don't find that suspicious. I don't know find that suspicious. I don't know anything about it. You know what Bilderberg is? Sounds familiar. It's like a convention of all these super rich people and heads of state every year.
Starting point is 00:43:30 Yeah, okay. And I've always heard these explanations about how they're doing these nefarious things, and I'm like, it's really just birds of a feather flock together. It's a convention for rich people who run stuff. And they hang out, and it's like, I know they're probably talking about really awful things and that's why a lot of these you know journalists show up and try and like film and stuff but it's not a i don't think it's a conspiracy like there's a grand cabal that like
Starting point is 00:43:53 and we will meet and organize the world it's like a bunch of people who run massive companies meet yeah same as you're into what you do they're going to you know there's problems with it for sure okay like heads of state meeting with billionaires and then like discussing candid things that the public can't know about i'm not a fan of good point you know but yeah the who in the international monetary fund i don't like the mixing of all this stuff the revolving door you know the nepotism it's how the world's run it's always been run that way drunk shovel says boycott china do your bit stay home stay safe nice chuck moore says is so he jesus cgi just asking he is actually he is a perfect computer rendering in real time i'm actually upstairs
Starting point is 00:44:30 playing video games right now yeah yeah yeah this is all an illusion we the first thing we had adam do when he got here was read key sentences like you have to read seven sentences so the computer can perfectly emulate his voice yeah and then i had to wear the suit with all these white dots. Yeah. And I kept moving around. I don't know. Whatever. And he was like, so you mean to tell me I have to do no work?
Starting point is 00:44:51 We just do this one time and you play video games for out and the computer just is you. Yeah. Great job, baby. Right. I got the best job ever. Michael Hendrick says, I added you and Lydia on Twitter. Not sure if you saw it. This guy on YouTube is smearing you, calling you a liar and that you were a conspiracy
Starting point is 00:45:04 theorist. It's actually quite funny. I mean, I don't know why people send me this stuff, to be honest. I have no disrespect to people who do, but I've got 710,000 followers, subscribers on my main channel. We've got almost 200 on this one. I've got
Starting point is 00:45:17 600 on my other one. Subverse has another 160. I get this every day like times 100. I enjoy reading them people are like dude you see this guy made a video man yo you should tell tim that this is happening and i'm like he knows yeah i don't know i just ignore it and if he doesn't know he doesn't care so you know i get people who i know who are also like decently sized youtubers will be like yo bro like you see what's going on and i'm like dude yes i told you i don't check my notifications yeah just ignore it i don't care it you know it's a crazy thing a lot of people
Starting point is 00:45:48 get really bent out of shape on twitter when they're like people are saying mean things about me it's like if you turn it off it goes away i know it's nice yeah just poof it's nice i know but look at society though you know it's not not to say that you're wrong because i agree with you there is a an essence of turning it off and like life, and I don't have to know about that. But society now, we are in this online world. So your online persona is now a part of you that actually affects people a lot more nowadays. Especially when they don't have like your strength of character that you have, you know?
Starting point is 00:46:26 You know you. You're going to be you, you know? It's like that's how I feel I am too. Like I know I'm going to be me. I'm not going to... People can call me... I don't know if Soy Jesus was a joke to try to make fun of me
Starting point is 00:46:36 or what it was, but it's like it's great. Like whatever. I think it's hilarious, you know? But could you imagine if Alyssa Milano did like a response video? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:44 It's ridiculous. She would never do that. She wouldn't, no. Right. And that's why she's got, you know, three point seven million followers. I think it's funny when, you know, I get messages from people trying to goad me into like YouTube drama. And I'm like, you realize that the people who watch my stuff don't know who you are. Right. And don't want to hear about that. They want to hear about the goings on of things and how we feel about them. If I came out and came out and said like there's this guy he's got like 20 followers and he called me a conspiracy theorist they'd be like dude so what cares yeah you know yeah let's uh or anyone if anyone called you anything who cares did i get called i'm gonna do me i'm gonna do me and you know do my own i'll tell you this though when uh after occupy wall street that was like the first time i had ever gotten like press attention okay all of a sudden I went from having like 600 followers to having 6,000. Okay. Dude, it was stressful. Was it?
Starting point is 00:47:29 Because I didn't understand what was going on. And so all of a sudden my phone would vibrate and I'd look at my phone and they would be like, you POS, your mother. And I'm like, what's happening? And I'd look and they'd say all these crazy things about me. People started like photoshopping pictures of me. And I started getting like, I would get like, I would get stressed out by it okay and then you know i consider myself to be rather measured and so like almost immediately after the first day of like getting slammed by all these tweets insulting me and attacking me i was just like f this x yeah yeah i just i'm like i'm out yeah and i just that was the end of it and then it was really
Starting point is 00:48:05 it was really interesting for me because i'll tell you what really shuts this off for your brain is when i was in venezuela and this high profile pundit accused me of being a cia operative like some kind of spy yeah and then i got in like 10 minutes 10 000 plus tweets threatening me insulting me from venezuelans like some of them threatening death wow and i'm like that's a wake up call when your phone just goes like, and like all these things are popping up, like we're coming for you, we'll find you. And I'm like, time to leave the country. Yes.
Starting point is 00:48:32 So if you think like calling me a name is worrisome to me when I've literally been shot at and forced to flee a country after being accused of being a spy by a high profile pundit. That's what it is. We've both been shot at. Oh, definitely, man. That's it. I love. Once you've been shot at you're like yeah yeah right everything else is super chill words chicago good call me words it is also chicago i'm from chicago too if you guys don't know and that's where that's where it was i i i love talking with i'll be talking with like a female journalist
Starting point is 00:49:01 the conflict reporter and you can tell when someone's actually dealt with real life. Yeah. And, and it's like, it's, you know, it's, it's, it, I'll say it's extremely rare to find one of these woke dainty flowers of a conspiracy. Like I've never met a conflict journalist that is into all this social justice, whatever. And, you know, is really delicate and scared and offended all the time. Oh I see. Every single conflict journalist I've ever interacted with male or female has been like I don't care about that. Right. Like because
Starting point is 00:49:31 the first time the first bullet flies past your head you get it you get a sense of what matters in life. Definitely. It really gives you some perspective. Yeah. Yeah. That makes sense. Have you been shot at? I have not. Oh. Yeah. No. But I could see it. Well when you're from Chicago it's almost like a right of passage. You don't have a choice. Yeah. But it's true. Not shot at? I have not. Oh, okay. No, but I could see it. Well, when you're from Chicago, it's almost like a rite of passage. You don't have a choice.
Starting point is 00:49:47 It's true. Not shot at may be like they shot in your general direction. Oh, no. They were shooting at me. Oh, man. They were out to get soy Jesus. I'm dead serious. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:56 No, see, I have- And you know why? You know why they were shooting at me and my friends? Why? Because one of my friends had his hat that way. Oh, no. Instead of this way. And three of them came up to us and was like, take off your hat.
Starting point is 00:50:07 My buddy's like, no. And they're like, take it off or else. And he's like, no. Oh, my God. And then they ran that way. And all of a sudden, we were barbecuing. And a bullet hit the barbecue. Whoa.
Starting point is 00:50:19 And my friend was like, they're shooting at us. And we started going. And I ran to the the i saw a dumpster and i was running to the dumpster to get behind it and i heard the bullet go past my head and i saw the bullet hole in the dumpster as i dove behind it i was like i almost just died yeah yep that's chicago immediate focus so i was getting off that happened 290 is the highway that goes into chicago and i was I was with my brother my older brother Ryan we were driving off this exit
Starting point is 00:50:47 and it's in the middle of the night we see this, it's like an old mobile driving towards us when all of a sudden an arm just very slowly methodically goes like that with a gun boom and we're like what the we had no idea why that's Chicago and we were like, we just look at each other small and go Chicago
Starting point is 00:51:03 sure and then we pop a Mentos and we just look at each other small and go, Chicago. Sure. And then we pop a Mentos and we just carry on with our lives. Do like a hop, skip. Yeah. High five in the air. Freeze frame. Yeah. But I think actually like we're joking about all this, but in reality, a lot of these people
Starting point is 00:51:17 that are super like screechy and whiny, like who go out and like throw bricks and stuff, they've never actually experienced hardship. Yeah. They tend to be, you know, the progressive activists, this is what the studies say, tend to be higher profile, white, college educated, coming from wealthier families or making $100,000 a year or more.
Starting point is 00:51:34 Well, the online persona, you have like this fake armor, you know? It's because I'm here and anything I send goes out there that I have this huge armor that no one can touch me. So I can say anything I want. Yeah, but these people get legit anxiety attacks from seeing naughty words on the Internet. That's true. Like you'll say like you're a poopoo head and they'll go.
Starting point is 00:51:57 And they'll like they'll collapse. Yeah. And they'll call it they call it violence. And they'll call the police on you. Yeah. Well, the crazy thing is now because this is one of the things we i get to is that a lot of these people you know they're susceptible to covid that's true yeah yeah you're right big fat feminists oh yeah and i'm not saying that in a derogatory way i'm saying they're literally that's what they are actually correct and they they there
Starting point is 00:52:18 is a risk factor there so all of this you know lack of responsibility is putting them in dangerous and in harm's way. And I think that's a bad thing. I agree.

Starting point is 00:54:24 Hi to you tim soy jesus and lydia appreciate it word what up fla says still essential still working one confirmed cases in my store f for me lol you know what a friend said to me they said it's not essential it's sacrificial they're the people who have to work that or else that's like their job that's interesting that's an interesting point they're throwing the front lines they know they'll get sick and they have to do it anyway. Yeah. And the rest of us hide while they are on the front line.
Starting point is 00:54:49 Shout out to all those sacrificial workers then. Essential workers. Essential workers. But I don't blame them for feeling like they're being sacrificial. Yeah. You know what I mean? Seriously. Everyone keeps.
Starting point is 00:54:58 All these. The clapping videos are a little weird. Like I'm proving to the world that I'm clapping for these people. Right. It's like no. No. No. But you know. I have a platform here. I'm just just gonna say thank you for doing your job i'll tell you
Starting point is 00:55:09 what you know makes better videos like walk up to him hand him a dollar like here you go yeah buddy of mine was like you know what i really don't need this money from the government like why shouldn't we just send it to uh you know we should send it to the people that need it and i just said why don't you just take it and go find someone and give it to them then? Yeah, that's all you have to do. That's the other thing, too. It's like AOC is, Ocasio-Cortez was talking about how they should give stimulus money based on reparations for minorities. Okay. So that, you know, people who don't need it don't get it.
Starting point is 00:55:35 And I'm like, they're literally giving out the money based on your income. So regardless of your race, if you're poor and need it, you get it. And if you're rich, you don't. Right. And you know what? That's technically unfair. Right. You know it. And if you're rich, you don't. Right. And you know what? That's technically unfair. Right. You know why?
Starting point is 00:55:46 Why? So if somebody in 2018 worked double shifts every week to save up, they don't get access to the stimulus. It doesn't mean they have money now. Because they were making more that year. Yeah. So the assumption that everyone has is that if you made $100,000 a year in 2018, it means that you were working a 40-hour-ahour week job and just happened to be rich.
Starting point is 00:56:05 You could also have been working two $50,000 a year jobs and just working overtime to save up and be responsible, and now you don't get access to the stimulus. But for the most part... So there's holes in it, but for the most part... But I agree with it. Yeah, for the most part, it's like, if you're rich, you don't get it.
Starting point is 00:56:20 You don't need it. I wouldn't... Somebody who works 80-hour weeks on low-paying jobs to save up, I wouldn't call rich. 80 hour weeks on low paying jobs to save up. I wouldn't call rich. I agree. It's just someone who saved money. Yeah. And worked hard.
Starting point is 00:56:29 But I don't know how you divvy it up. I don't think giving it up based on race makes sense. No. Let's let's say it's fairly racist. Right. Racist. The unrefined says Joe Biden mumbling is beyond canteen floss speeches. Cantonfliss.

Let's get to the scary news. Yeah. Because this stuff affects all of us. Yeah. And we're going to be rather serious with all you guys.
Starting point is 01:01:55 Many of you may like this show. You come here, there's around 12,500 or so of you, and we love that you come to this show. Yes, we do. But YouTube has been increasingly shutting down content creators. And this has started over the past few years. And as I've predicted, and many others have predicted, what we think is happening, YouTube wants to completely get rid of this. They completely want to get rid of the independent, homegrown, small business media outfit. Now, there are a lot of people who say really dumb things, and they were the first to go.
Starting point is 01:02:24 And I still think it's wrong, because I believe in free speech, even for people who aren't smart. It's kind of weird that these people believe that if you're not smart enough, you're not allowed to speak. But that's what they're doing. Well, it's slowly getting worse and worse. So we just saw two major complete shutdowns on YouTube, and it's kind of worrying. Let's start with Ariel Scarcella. We'll start with Ariel. What I think, it's just these are the two people we know right you know what i mean oh i know tons
Starting point is 01:02:49 of other channels i've seen them all so if it's happened to these two like i can only imagine the the amount that is across the board it's a lot so go ahead so so here's what's been happening over the past several years they've been slowly starting with demonetizations just you know saying oh no this video is no good this video is no good. This video is no good. And they've started a hard manual review of every single channel, removing people from the partner program, which means you can't make money anymore. You're out. That means if you don't make money, they don't recommend your content because YouTube prioritizes content with ads in it because they want to make money. So there's some good news for the high profile YouTubers who have already broke through.
Starting point is 01:03:27 You're going to get more money because these other creators are being purged. That means the available ad space is going down. I think I know why they're doing this. There's a couple of reasons. And one of them is ad space related supply and demand. But let's take a look at what happened first. We have this tweet from Ariel Scarcella. She was a guest on this show last month or so.
Starting point is 01:03:44 And this is a tweet from Ariel Scarcella. She was a guest on this show last month or so. And this is a tweet from January 2018. She said, over the past year, YouTube has been killing ads on most, around 79% of my videos. If you'd like to help fund my LGBT educational content, please donate to her Patreon. There are tons of great rewards and Skype calls from me. Well, shortly after appearing on this show, she tweeted this. This is from a couple of days ago. I didn't want to post this publicly, but YouTube creators has demonetized my entire channel for the past three weeks. If you appreciate my content, please support my work through Patreon. If you can't afford it, a few dollars goes a long way. This is an email she received that says, during a recent review, our team of policy specialists carefully looked over the videos you've uploaded to your channel.
Starting point is 01:04:22 Ariel Scarcella, we found that a significant portion of your channel is not in line with our YouTube partner program policies. As of today, your channel is not eligible to monetize and you will not have access to monetization tools and features. Please go to your monetization page to read more about the specific policy our specialists flagged. Now, this seems to be YouTube escalating their enforcement because Ariel talks about adults, you know, stuff. Yeah. You know, sexuality, relationships and things like that. But it was it was OK for the longest time. The media, these people that are, you know, that compete with YouTube competes with who don't like them, then start writing all these fake all
Starting point is 01:05:01 this fake news, all these smears that are just not true, algorithmically, you know, proven false. Researchers from Berkeley even, you know, in Berkeley, super progressive, proved that the rabbit hole narrative is just all not true. Right. But this is part of what YouTube is doing to purge creators. Yeah. So the rules are getting stricter. They're retroactively giving people guideline strikes, which brings me now to one of the more worrying demonetizations. Because look, Ariel, in my opinion, shouldn't have been demonetized. They should have said the specific content we don't want. I get it. I'll also point out YouTube has no obligation
Starting point is 01:05:34 to be your ad sales manager. If nobody wants to watch your content, it's not YouTube's job to market for you and sell your ads. So again, I don't think it's fair that she was banned, but she did talk about old stuff. Now, Luke, on the other hand, talks about news. And this is what Luke tweeted. This is just from a couple hours ago. Just had YouTube totally take away my income, and now my entire channel is demonetized. Why, YouTube creators? This is how I survive. Why do this now, especially during these difficult times? Thank you to everyone who helps here. You want to know why this is so egregious, in my opinion? Of all of the times YouTube could destroy someone's business,
Starting point is 01:06:12 they're doing it at a time when the economy is already under massive strain. And the last thing we need is for someone like Luke to lose his job. Now, I've taken some action to try and mitigate the potential risk because I don't think I'm safe. How long until YouTube comes and gives the band hammer to me or anybody else? Luke said there was no specific video or violation, no strikes, nothing. How the hell am I supposed to change anything if I don't know what to change? And my livelihood is dependent on this. This is cruel YouTube creators.
Starting point is 01:06:41 Yep. It doesn't matter. They don't care. Meanwhile, Facebook is running ads of Chinese state propaganda, blaming Trump for COVID-19. YouTube will run overt fake news from mainstream media that just says, you know, Trump is bad. People will fall for it. They'll go insane. And then a week later, it turns out Trump was right. Right. So the example I used, uh, in the, just a few minutes ago, I did a video on my second channel about the Wuhan CDC lab
Starting point is 01:07:08 near the wet market. The Washington Post wrote and got a quote from a Rutgers professor saying that there were security risks and that there had been breaches before and we should consider the possibility. It's basically what they were saying. We don't know for sure. We do think the most likely is natural occurrence, but it may have been a breach from a lab. YouTube demonetized that video because they have told me I'm not allowed to say the virus may have originated in a lab, even though the mainstream media says it. So this system can't function. But I'll tell you what I think they're doing. When you have YouTube with, I think there was like a couple, it was like 100 million channels. And most of them don't produce anything.
Starting point is 01:07:51 You have essentially infinite supply, minimal demand. So what ends up happening is when a company like Pepsi wants to run ads, they're like, I can just sell an ad for a penny. Or I can buy an ad for a penny because there's so much content that the demand is, the supply is infinite. You know, it's like, what am I worried about? How can YouTube artificially suppress the supply so that Pepsi is forced to pay two cents, three cents, four cents, five cents or more. Ad rates are really, really low on YouTube, which made it hard for them to attract high profile and high budget projects. I'll tell you what, man, the amount of money that it would cost me on YouTube
Starting point is 01:08:30 to make a really nice, beautiful documentary is a fraction of the cost it would be for any other production company. So like Vice, for instance, would spend $50,000 on a 10 minute segment. I could do it for a couple grand. But what ends up happening is when you get people constantly cutting costs and making low quality content, then advertisers don't want to be associated with it. You have a massive supply of cheap content that's not worth anything and YouTube can't make money. So YouTube finds an excuse. Ooh, everyone's complaining about politics. Let's start purging everybody. That way we can force all of these companies to spend more on digital ads on YouTube because it is valuable to a certain degree. That will drive up the amount
Starting point is 01:09:11 of money that the YouTubers get, and then they'll increase their production quality. So I wonder if the actual reason these people are being purged is because their production quality was too low. Or they didn't have the following that... Luke has 622 000 subscribers yeah but was his videos i i don't really look at his youtube channel but was it um were they popular and were they like ad were they advertised like were they able to be you know advertised in in a sense like you know you said pepsi is an example so wouldn't pepsi want to be advertised on i don't know drinking this stuff i guess yeah people drink pepsi while they're
Starting point is 01:09:52 relaxing whatever but like you know aren't ads like kind of catered to the video not not always but yes like political stuff you'll see political stuff political ads are gone right now. Right. Because the political landscape is wiped out. Yeah, there isn't any. This is crazy. So I'll tell you, too, from a business standpoint, ad revenue is down, down, down, like bad down for everybody. And it's going down every single day. Media companies are laying people off. We're seeing a lot of companies either do layoffs or pay cuts.
Starting point is 01:10:24 CEOs skip their salaries. But yeah, even for us, ad revenue is dropping substantially. Now, because I, on my main channel, do politics, ad revenue dropped off to a ridiculous degree, more than 50%. It's like overnight, just like, whoa, all of a sudden, gone. So that's why I've done a few more sponsored spots. But what's worrying is, I can't say exactly why they purged Luke. But right now, of all the times to do it.
Starting point is 01:10:49 So when they started demonetizing my content, they were demonetizing everything coronavirus related. YouTube is not a good place to run a business. Absolutely not. There's a good opportunity because they market for you. That's really what it's all about. Yeah, but you said it yourself. They don't have any obligation to put ads on your channel. Right. Right. So, so here's the problem. YouTube has taken the entire
Starting point is 01:11:10 industry, the ad agency, the marketing company and the hosting provider, put them all together, which just destroyed all the competition. They've incentivized everyone to come to their platform and spend years building the stuff up. Luke's been producing on, on YouTube for like, I mean, how long has it been? 15 years is some ridiculous number. Wow. Yeah. So 13 or so years.
Starting point is 01:11:32 Because he's been on YouTube since it started. Because he's always been like, you know, alternative media and all this stuff. So they tell you all these things. And then without breaking the rules, without breaking any contracts, they destroy your business. I'll put it this way. Here's how I've always explained to people. Imagine if you found a building in your town and you're like, this building looks great. And you went to the bank, you bought it, put everything together, paid your taxes. And then one day you're the local town comes in and says, the first thing we're going to do is physically relocate your business out of downtown, 40 miles away from the city.
Starting point is 01:12:03 You'd be like, whoa, but then no one will ever come in to buy, you know, my cookies that I'm making. Yeah. That's what YouTube did first. D ranking your content so that no one can find it. And then they argue, oh, but people could still go by if they want to. Yeah. But are they going to look for it? Right. Then they remove you from search. Now you can't Google search my channels. Nope. Tim Cass and Tim Cass news, not in Google. Yeah, that's not, that's why another reason why I'm like got to, you got to, you know, change things up. Now what they're straight up doing is imagine you bought a building and they said, you're going to be good. Build your business here. All your customers come in, build up the area. And then they come in and just crush
Starting point is 01:12:35 your building, destroy it outright without warning, without breaking any contracts. You didn't break any rules. So like you kind of touched on a little bit earlier. Do you think it's because YouTube is losing the ad revenue? So they're purging a lot of people to make the ads worth more. So then they'll just make more money. Yep. Right. So I think it's a combination of factors. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:12:55 YouTube and the media compete with each other to a certain degree, right? CBS and Fox and CNN, they're all on YouTube. They use it. YouTube wants to attract high profile, high production quality shows. They do like, so my main channel, it's like a browser window with my face in the corner. Right. I can't imagine they like that. Right. Now this is different. This is multi-camera lights, set design and everything. So production quality has gone up. Luke was doing, and I mean, I mean mean no disrespect luke had a lower production quality
Starting point is 01:13:25 he had like you know a grainier camera but he was doing similar things to what i was doing with your face in the corner that's why i'm saying i don't know how long i am for this world yeah this show i think they might like because it's like a live show with multiple cameras but we're still not like the daily show where you do everything pre-scripted and it's all this fake stuff or whatever true but i think that's an excuse. They want to get higher, higher, higher quality content, which requires better paying ads. They want Hollywood to come to, you know, YouTube and use them as a platform. Yeah. They want to be Netflix. Right. And they can't so long as they have people on YouTube screaming about the Illuminati and
Starting point is 01:14:00 lizard people. So I do think they like me. The theory that I've had for a long time as to why I think YouTube tolerates me is that there's a certain amount of conservatives who do watch me, but I'm not overtly conservative. So I don't, you know, so there are people like, you know, Steven Crowder, for instance, they take away his monetization. They say, you say naughty words, boom, you can't make money. For me, it's like more moderate. Okay. So they don't want to lose any of their users. And if they start banning everyone on the right, they'll lose all their users.
Starting point is 01:14:32 And so we did a survey and I think it was something like, you know, 17 to like 25% of the people who watch me identified as conservative. Okay. So I think what YouTube sees is here's a guy who, if we ban the conservatives, they'll stay around to watch him so we won't lose them. So keep him around. They don't like me. They don't like what I say, but it's safe for the brands. Right. So that means that the conservatives who they think, you know, push the boundary they don't like, they can get rid of and then hope that I might pick up
Starting point is 01:14:59 some of these, you know, people who get left behind. I guess that works both ways, too, because you're talking about one side and the same goes for the other side right they don't they don't care about the far left oh no lunatics they don't for the most part they just ignore it okay so you you actually have channels that have uh have have you know told people how to commit crimes and stuff and they don't care they don't care yeah yeah they don't care it's it's that's that's exactly how it goes i mean you look at what happened with trump on Twitter. OK, Joe Biden launched his campaign by mishmashing statements from Trump to lie. It's called the very fine people hoax. OK, right. So, yeah, I won't get into much detail. But anyway, Joe Biden makes ads where he takes one sentence, another sentence, mash them together.
Starting point is 01:15:42 And Twitter is fine. Trump shows one clip of something Joe Biden actually said, but the rest of his sentence was cut and they flag it as manipulated. So then Joe Biden comes out with another video that mishmashes words from Trump to make sentences Trump never said. Seriously, that's what he did. Wow. Yeah, like he took a word from Trump, coronavirus, and then took hoax and mashed them together.
Starting point is 01:16:04 Trump never said it. But now people believe he did. Wow. And Twitter refused to take it down or flag it. So then the Trump campaign did the same thing to Biden and they didn't do anything either. But the, the, the one directional nature of how this stuff works is very, very obvious. I will add, it's no coincidence in my opinion that only a couple of weeks after Ariel Scarcella comes out condemning the far left, they stripped her from the partner program. Good point. Yep. That's a good point.
Starting point is 01:16:30 It was almost immediately after she said that she was coming out as more conservative or something or as leaving the left, I think she said it was. Because they've gone nuts. Then what happens a couple weeks later? She's out. No more money. happens a couple weeks later she's out but wouldn't that money wouldn't that be make her more in tune with like your channel because the conservatives are on the right like she's saying she's leaving the left yep she's coming more towards the center so wouldn't that i mean you know it just doesn't make sense to me like why would she yeah it would have been yeah she would
Starting point is 01:17:01 have been one of them safe video makers well Well, she does talk about adult stuff. Yes. Okay. Like adult relationship things. Indeed. So I think that was a line for them too. Okay, I guess. And now she's starting to dance around on the leaving the left stuff, which the media has smeared relentlessly with lies.
Starting point is 01:17:17 And so I think there's like probably a risk assessment score or something maybe where they're like, oh, add these factors together. The problem with Luke is that Luke's got a longstanding history on YouTube. So you go back to what's Luke supposed to do? Delete 10 years of videos. They could go back to 10 years and find every video has ever done, find one of them. They don't like and ban them for it. Yeah. So that's, that's a serious conversation. People on YouTube have had is do we just delete every video a week later and then upload that to an archive website for people to watch if they want to watch it i don't know maybe i feel like you're the expert here i don't know you know you you look at family guy and i i question why it is that family guy has a
Starting point is 01:17:59 character that is a jewish stereotype that in every possible most demeaning way yeah mocks him for being jewish yep we just were watching i think it was uh it was family guy and stewie and brian have a conversation about trans people and they asked it was like really offensive right but that's fine on every platform on it's fine on youtube it's fine on netflix and hulu like that scene that scene yeah it was stewie and and Brian sitting there questioning what trans people are like downstairs and like a bunch of other really offensive things. You see how I have to frame the, say these things on YouTube. Yeah. They will, the stream will get shut off. Like people don't realize this. There have been people who have been streaming and I'll
Starting point is 01:18:40 tell you what, it's not necessarily the same thing, but David Pakman, progressive YouTuber, I think it's fair to say he's progressive, liberal. He was streaming the debates and they disabled his stream because he was commenting on footage that was publicly available and broadcast. It's happened to a ton of people. Even C-SPAN has been flagged. Really? So they're really trying to shut down non-mainstream content. If you are a non-mainstream personality and you are commenting on, you know, the live Democrat debates, they will ban you outright. They ban you from live
Starting point is 01:19:10 streaming. So we got to be careful, but it's crazy that we live in this world where I have to abide by a two-week delay that YouTube, because of you, so let me restart over. The Washington Post will say, hey, maybe they started in the lab. YouTube says, don't you say it. Don let me restart over. The Washington Post will say, hey, maybe they started in the lab. YouTube says, don't you say it. Don't you say it until the media says it. And I'm like, but the media just said it. And they're like, and then two weeks later, someone at YouTube finally figures out they're saying it and says, OK, now you can say it. Or Voldemort, the political guy who officiates, his name I can't say. I was told by YouTube I would be allowed to say his name the moment it became in the public debate and said by politicians and by the media.
Starting point is 01:19:49 Okay. And it was said numerous times on Fox News, and it was said by a couple different politicians. And then when I asked, I was like, okay, are we good now? They said no. They even deleted a video of a senator speaking on the Senate floor saying his name. Wow. That's how insane YouTube has gotten. So anyway, I can wrap this one up
Starting point is 01:20:05 because I think we've gone for a while with discussion. I'll tell you this. Yeah. I would not be surprised if in the next six months, considering we're in election year, I don't know what'll happen, but I wouldn't be surprised if my channels are purged.
Starting point is 01:20:15 All of them, outright. Even this one. So who knows? Wonderful. For now, everything seems to be going okay. Yeah. Thank you, everybody. No, but for real.
Starting point is 01:20:24 Appreciate you guys so much. One of the reasons for wanting to do this show was like I work all day every day and I'm seeing this happening and I'm like they've blacklisted my channels. Yeah, already. They deny it. I'm going to make a new channel and we're going to do something different, you know, and we're going to try and it doesn't matter because when Tim Pool gets banned, all of Tim Pool is banned. Let's start a new channel and bring on banned, all of Tim Pool is banned. Let's start a new channel and bring on a soy kind of a – Soy bro. Soy kind of a Jesus.
Starting point is 01:20:51 Soy Chad. Yeah. Chad him. And here I am. Yes, here he is. We'll see what happens. For now, it's not even – it's scary to see them hitting Ariel and Luke. They're both verified Twitter users.
Starting point is 01:21:03 They're both very different. Right. Yeah. Yeah, definitely. So how do you even figure out why they got removed there's no like commonality almost no idea so i don't i you know i don't know if i'm safe or not but i but i can say even right now i'm not even super worried right now i am but with ad revenue tanking because of you know covid and all that stuff yeah i'm not even sure how much now. I am, but with ad revenue tanking because of COVID and all that stuff, I'm not even sure how much it matters because I've been doing the sponsor spots and suffice it to say that made up for a decent amount of the loss. The sponsor spots I've done have covered the losses and done me a little bit better. But if I didn't do them, I'd be down
Starting point is 01:21:43 substantially. So for now, with the goal being to expand and survive, like people don't understand how it works with a business. They think that if you make good money, then you're good forever. But look at all these big corporations that are like, we have one month of operating costs. Right. That's not good business.
Starting point is 01:21:57 No, it's not. We'll see what happens, everybody. For now, thanks for hanging out and watching. Make sure you hit the like button, subscribe, follow us on our accounts. We still have another hour for you guys. I'm just saying, so long as you're here, we're here as well.
Starting point is 01:22:12 I don't know what'll happen if YouTube ever gives us the band hammer, but how about we talk about we'll do some super chats. Yes. Should we talk about the rat apocalypse? Yeah, that's fun. The rats are coming to get us. That's great. Is a plague of rats following the coronavirus as urban rats face a growing food scarcity. We ask an expert what that could mean for your household.
Starting point is 01:22:32 It means the rats are coming for you. Rats are coming. All right, we'll grab these super chats. Let me try and figure out where the super chats left off. Because I don't know. Here we go. All right, I think I found it. Let's see. 56th Crusader says, quote by Groucho Marx. Words, man, they're great. They are great. Gloria says, hey, Tim, just thought I would let you know. I think you are sexy as hell. Please don't me too me. I won't.
Starting point is 01:23:00 Drunk Shovel says, sacrificial worker here, like legit, I work in a liquor store. Oh man, but that's the most essential. Is it? Listen, there's a reason why they say liquor is safe, even in a recession. Because when people get desperate, it can be bad if people get drunk and aggressive, but it can be good if people are getting angry and have a nice drink and buzz out and chill out. You know what I mean? So maybe in that regard, pot smoking is better. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:23:25 Whatever calms people down as things get crazy. Yeah, I guess you're right. I think liquor can be important. Fowl Lane, thanks for the super chat. Let's see. Perry Wood says, there's a Chinese show on Netflix that came out in 2018 called My Secret Terrius that predicted the coronavirus, the Corona Nora virus on episode 10. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 01:23:44 Cora Nora. Not a typo. Oh, interesting. Let's see where we at now. J man says feminism birthed communism and fascism. Did it? I don't, I'm not sure if it did actually. I don't know. Let's see. Johnny Pittman says it's easier to find men that would volunteer to die than find those who are willing to endure pain with patience. Julius Caesar. Very nice. Yu Yu says, this used to be Tim Pool Gaming Channel. I want MTG. It did, in fact, used to be Tim Pool Gaming Channel. I know. It started, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:24:13 And then I was like, I gotta change it. And then it was the van thing, briefly. And then I was like, couldn't find anybody for that. And then I took over. Yeah. This channel's mine. Oh, okay. Whoa, sorry. Good to know. Got a little crazy there. Yeah, man. Crank Sinatra says, here's 1,809 Zimbabwe dollars. Appreciate it. Oh, okay. Whoa, sorry. Good to know. Got a little crazy there. Yeah, man. Crank Sinatra says, here's 1,809 Zimbabwe dollars. Appreciate it.
Starting point is 01:24:29 Nice. Holm Brian says, doesn't Lydia run Subverse News? Why are people asking who she is? She doesn't. Emily does. I'm not Emily. Lydia's not Emily. Cliff said, you should check out Rebel News' video about Tedros, what's his name, of who?
Starting point is 01:24:42 Scary stuff. What's his name? Israfel says, I'm an essential worker, apparently, that delivers pizza. With a wife that is highly immunocompromised, I would rather have a bonus and a vacation after this is done instead of a clap and a thank you. I hear you. True that. Josh Aubin says, Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers attempted to postpone our elections. The Supreme Court ruled unconstitutional. What can I tell people when they ask why it's so important to vote and not postpone? I honestly have no idea. Furby Slayer says, Ariel's content is a bit different, but her crime is coming out as a
Starting point is 01:25:13 rational thinking person. Continue to voice support for her at every chance. Yep. Well, we'll see how long we last. Chuck Morris says, Beanie Boy is my favorite garbage pail kid. It's a good one. Kat Young says, They demonetized quite frankly today also. No super chats. Wow. Quite frankly. He's a podcaster.
Starting point is 01:25:32 Oh, wow. That's a big hit. They're going methodically through channels. Dude. You know what? I might just get in the van and just go off in the wilderness. Bug out. Bug out. The bug out van.
Starting point is 01:25:41 Into the sunset. Down by the river. Just crack the back door open. Look at the mountains. Salt Lake City is beautiful. Yeah. The bug out van. Into the sunset. Down by the river. Just crack the back door open, look at the mountains. Salt Lake City's beautiful. Yeah. TheRabbitSoul says, trying to grow a tiny commentary channel right now. Talking about the virus has completely tanked me, thanks to search results suppression.
Starting point is 01:25:56 Yes. Yep. They don't want you to talk. Sorry, dude. Fowlin says, they can't shut you down, Tim. You're my favorite, lol. I actually like that after they play tucker like him a lot now yeah wesley says killing it broski appreciate it azazel says does youtube make more money from ads
Starting point is 01:26:12 or from stealing a cut of super chats probably ads yeah definitely i would think ads yeah because they're on every video and the percentages are the same but youtube runs ads on channels that aren't in the partner program so when they kick kick you out, they still run ads, and then they keep all of the money. Jeez. Skeldog says, AI Beanie 3 AM podcast needs to happen. We can maybe figure out a silly thing. Hey Momo says, YouTube is now recommending me a channel called Nathan Rich. Dude appears to be pro-China and really doesn't like you, Tim.
Starting point is 01:26:42 Interesting recommendation. Pro-China. I read the comments under his video. They're universally praising him, and a lot of them are Chinese. They are Chinese? It's very weird. Yeah, it is weird. I'll just show it to you.
Starting point is 01:26:54 China. China. China. Whatever. Steven Big says, Planet Terror is what movie you were thinking of, and it was Robert Rodriguez who did the movie. Quentin did Death Proof, double feature called Grindhouse. Oh, go was it was uh rose mcgowan steven askew thanks for becoming a member thank you mr oh where are we at we just jumped grindhouse was
Starting point is 01:27:13 the one where she had a here we go machine gun like just for the record what was that rose mcgowan yeah i think so oh okay mr hunt first name michael cultural marxism is dead long live meritocracy hopefully there's a long way to fight. All right. Bibi says, Tim, would it be useful for journalists to be provided OSINT support, distributed collab tech that implements embedded structured analytic critical thinking methods with rigorous versioning and knowledge curation for proof of due diligence? I have no idea. I don't know what the issue is with most journalists other than they're just going to lie. So however you solve for that problem, I don't know. They made it a bit too technical for me.
Starting point is 01:27:49 Colin says, you guys should set up a DLive and BitChute accounts. I do have BitChute and it automatically archives all of my content there anyway. Very good. Yeah. Steven Eskew says, y'all going to move to BitChute? No, I'm already there. LaSalle Rhyme says, good evening. Keep up the good work.
Starting point is 01:28:04 Viparous says, Tim, it's a Gundam and Clownfish TV are the only reason I still use YouTube. If they get rid of all of them or all but Tim, I will delete my YouTube account and listen to the podcast on Spotify instead. Interestingly, the amount of downloads I get on the podcast is like, I think, one two hundredth less. Some really, really, No, no, no. I think it's one fortieth less. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:28:29 Then on the YouTube source? Yeah. So on YouTube, I get around 40 plus million. Okay. And then on iTunes, it's like, I think. Actually, no, it's like one one hundred and twentieth. Yeah, it's like 400, 300 to 400,000 per month. So it's substantially less.
Starting point is 01:28:45 Robert Perry says, Snopes be like, did Tim Pool spill gumbo on his shirt on Friday? False. He did not. He did not on that day of the week. He built a Zeppelin though. Aaron says,
Starting point is 01:28:55 hey, Tim, you should get Manscaped to sponsor you. We all know you keep a shiny bald hender that beanie. Easiest sponsor ever. Oh, we'll see. Andrew. Whoa, there we go. Andrew says, hey, Tim and Soy Jesusesus and ghost girl what up hey to what deck and trucks do y'all recommend i'm new to skating and i have a cruiser deck but want to get something a bit more fun oh fun um say well that's the thing
Starting point is 01:29:17 with skating there's all sorts of different boards out there this is what i tell everyone go to a skate shop i mean when, when they open again, I guess, and stand on all the different boards they got. Like, let me try that one. Let me try that one. Let me try that one. And then find the one that's comfortable. That's really it.
Starting point is 01:29:32 If you're on a cruiser, you probably already have a certain kind of board, so try to go for something a little different and change it up because it is different types of skating. Right on. Frank Fuller says, I was supposed to leave for Mexico for a year, but had to postpone due to COVID. you for entertaining me you got it word adam thanks
Starting point is 01:29:48 for the super chat dave overton says tim pool the beanie baron thank you for all you do stay safe thank you very much aaron says soy jesus should make an only fans account to support the channel what's only fans i keep seeing that something that oh so like an account that only fans can see i guess oh okay i thought it was like an actual summer children yeah only fans is where all the girls are making their money these days oh really yeah oh yeah oh oh oh now i get it i don't know i love you guys all right clever metaphor says please put this money towards buying one more spinning object for the desk thank you very much we'll figure it out. Thanks, guys.
Starting point is 01:30:26 Robo, thanks for becoming a member. Zoot says, have you taken a look into the Earn It Act? It aims to ban end-to-end encryption, it seems. Yeah, we've heard people talk about it. Azazel the Fallen says, we need a Tim Pool China supercut. Well, you guys got to do it. Nicholas says, what commander do you play? Also, I saw some weird thing about Dean Kuntz's book that predicted
Starting point is 01:30:46 the whole pandemic. Not sure, but it seems like something you would like to look into. Yeah, it was similar, but it was because I think he mentioned Wu on Biolab, because there is one. But I don't know. Yeah, he did actually mention it in passing. But my current commander that I really enjoy
Starting point is 01:31:01 is Chulainn. He's newer and really fun to play. Yeah. I mean, I just have a bunch of different decks. But I think my favorite interactions right now is Kaikar. Yeah, Kaikar is nasty. So, David Levitt, thanks for becoming a member. And now on to the show.
Starting point is 01:31:17 The next horrifying nightmare scenario segment. Yeah. Great. A Plague of Rats. You see, it was, I think, last month. A video went viral showing a bunch of, what were they like, gibbons or something? Or baboons? Yeah, they were like medium-sized monkeys. Yeah, I don't know. Some kind of monkey in Thailand.
Starting point is 01:31:32 Churi Buri monkeys or something? Churi Buri monkeys. Weird name, yeah. And they were fighting in the streets. Brawling, yo. Because normally the tourists throw food, but now that there's no food, wars have emerged and monkey gangs start fighting each other like hundreds yeah like hundreds like just running it's nuts and there's other videos too i don't
Starting point is 01:31:51 know if you've ever seen it of baboons like someone will throw a snickers bar and then they'll just all stampede chasing after it dang yeah it's creepy stuff now i guess you can reason with the monkeys yeah they they know not to attack you or bother you because they know that you'll bring food so they leave you alone rats on the other hand i don't think they're they're gonna care they're gonna get ravenous and hungry i mean actually i agree you know but hold on i mean i think a bunch of starving monkeys would be more terrifying than starving rats i also agree yeah because what do you think's gonna happen when like well the monkeys are strong man those those monkeys could probably mess a person up and take their food.
Starting point is 01:32:26 If one person's just walking with a bag full of food and they're hungry and they smell it, they can definitely take someone out. There was hundreds of them. I don't know if you guys have seen these videos, but it's crazy. But hold on. Let's look at this. Look at this. So this is crazy, though.
Starting point is 01:32:40 Rats have been taken to the streets in packs sometimes in the daylight emboldened by hunger man they're out in the streets roving warriors oh yeah what happens when you get a bunch of starving rats and they're all diseased and they start running after you like your food yep they can eat humans right they can eat anything i mean if there's like a hundred of them i would i would be afraid of 100 rats coming at me. All right. Let's see what they say. The Hill reports as the country begins to buckle down for what experts are warning may be our hardest week of the coronavirus related deaths yet. One begins to wonder where does all of our social isolating leave the urban dwelling animals who depend on our food garbage for sustenance? Secondarily, and perhaps even more worrying,
Starting point is 01:33:23 where will those survivalists turn to when their need for food becomes dire? I do have to pause and mention pigeons. Yeah. Pigeons are a gift to mankind. You know why? Why is that? Well, first, pigeons are garbage incarnate. Okay.
Starting point is 01:33:37 And so are rats, but pigeons are funnier because they fly. You have a cheeseburger in New York City. Not you, but a person. And they take a bunch of bites and they throw it on the ground, the garbage, and then little bits of food flop on the ground. A pigeon comes and then eats your garbage. The garbage is broken down in the pigeon's body and becomes an egg.
Starting point is 01:33:53 Another pigeon eats garbage and it breaks down to become bird fertilizer. Why they're the gift to humans? I'm still waiting for it. So first, pigeons are literally made of refuse. It is, listen, it is a biological function that converts the garbage you throw on the ground into a bird. Okay.
Starting point is 01:34:12 Because they eat the garbage and turn into a bird. Okay. Where would all that garbage go if there weren't pigeons? The rats would eat it. No, no, no. I'm saying. So I remember thinking this, you thinking this 10, 15 years ago. I was in Chicago, and there was a gigantic pile of French fries.
Starting point is 01:34:27 I mean like an insanely huge pile. Apparently, a restaurant just dumped out a huge thing of French fries for some reason. Okay. And there was like 200, 300 pigeons just tearing at it. I heard it was someone with coronavirus coughed on it. This is 15 years ago. I'm just kidding. I'm making a joke.
Starting point is 01:34:42 What would we do with these French fries if not for these pigeons? The pigeons cleaned up shop, man. man. It was gone. It was like an hour and I was like, whoa. The pigeons are our garbage, come to life, cleaning up the garbage and then leaving. Now, they poop a lot. I get it. But the poop is isolated at certain locations typically. And a lot
Starting point is 01:34:59 of it's washed away. So the garbage literally gets turned into birds and then leaves. Well, the biodegradable garbage yeah of course what about all the rest of it no not well they looking at you humans yeah come on and myself i'm just talking about the food stuff because i do it could you imagine if there were no pigeons they would be just like garbage and like food garbage all over the floor like all over the ground everywhere you'd be like oh these you know i actually i was peeling an orange once i was sitting i was like walking through a park and i was like peeling an orange once. I was walking through a park and I was peeling the orange and tossing
Starting point is 01:35:27 the orange off to the side because it feels like I'm not throwing trash on the ground when it's an orange peel. This woman stopped me. She was like, excuse me, there's a trash can right over there. She pointed at a trash can. I could see right over there. And she like pointed at a trash can that was, you know, I could see it over there, but I was, I don't know. It had me thinking like, man, am I, am I littering? What do you think?
Starting point is 01:35:51 With fruit? An orange peel. No. I mean, maybe though. Really? Imagine if like out in the, in the country or maybe in the suburbs, I don't think it's a big deal. It was Central Park.
Starting point is 01:36:01 The problem is there's, the problem is the people, there's like millions who pass through Central Park every day. That's true. And if everybody was doing it, it would get really bad. Yeah. The animals couldn't pick it up. Okay. Yeah, I see that. So let's get back to the rats.
Starting point is 01:36:13 Okay. Because check this out. They're apparently on alert in New York. Here's a quote. They say, we spoke with Robert Corgan, a rodentologist who specializes in urban rats and works with cities around the world to design programs for rodent management. To find out, most New Yorkers have probably never heard of this type of job before, but it's his decision that affects their lives daily as he meets with agencies such as the MTA
Starting point is 01:36:34 to help them mitigate the rat issue on the subway. It's no small feat either, especially in cities such as New York, whose rat population has been estimated to reach around 2 million. I mean, I would say every time I ever went in the subway, I saw a rat. Oh, totally. Every single time I would see one. Yep. They do their thing. Yep. Quote, this is actually the first virus outbreak where we've had to be on alert about rats. And obviously the reason is that everybody is shut down. The rats, especially in cities like New York, Boston, and Washington, D.C., are heavily dependent on us for their food. There's no secret here that rats, for the most part,
Starting point is 01:37:08 get their food directly from us. It's all our garbage. In general, rats like to stay close to their burrows, which are often at ground level in apartment floorboards, alleyways, sidewalks or basements. They're also nocturnal animals and survive by mastering their surroundings, trying to stick to familiar areas within a few hundred feet of their home. Corrigan tells Changing America that when rats come out looking for restaurant garbage and scraps in the subway and there's none to be found for several days in a row, they switch into survival mode. The result, he says, is that they will begin to show up during the day as well as the night and in different areas than you'd normally find them due to stress.
Starting point is 01:37:50 The long-term impacts of a food shortage on urban rat populations can result in three possibilities, and each one is independent of the other. Because of this, there's no generalization as to what the rats in New York City are going to do. It's block by block, and it's actually colony by colony. If this keeps going on and the rats do not find dependable everyday sources of food, they will begin to implode on each other. They'll go into high stress mode and they may begin fighting to the death and then they will begin to cannibalize each other for their protein. The rodentologist says that he's already seen several cases while walking around the park. Rats that have been completely eviscerated and consumed by the others. Oh, man.
Starting point is 01:38:28 And that's what I was saying. What do you think people will do when the same thing happens? Once the survivors realize there's no more food to be found in that area, they may also begin to disperse, traveling quite a distance of multiple miles in the matter of a couple days in their hurried search for sustenance.
Starting point is 01:38:43 They'll try to find another spot where they can get some kind of food. And if they don't find that, they're going to simply die. But the third possibility is that they will start following their noses. This is where I was thinking. Cities like New Orleans
Starting point is 01:38:55 with its popular French Quarter, typically swarmed with tourists, are now seeing swarms of another kind. Emboldened by hunger, the city's rats have been taking to the now deserted streets in large packs in search of a bite to eat. Is this a video? Oh, there's a video.
Starting point is 01:39:08 We got a video of this. That looks like, whoa, yeah, a bunch of rats. Oh, man, they're forming rat gangs. Yep, rat gangs, man. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, all I see is, like, they're going to find ways into people's places, apartments. Yep. You know, New York buildings are not all new.
Starting point is 01:39:27 A lot of New York buildings are not in good shape compared to like the brand new stuff that's going out. Like they're going to follow their nose and they're going to find their way in. Well, he says, for now, take a look at how tight the infrastructure of your home is, whether that might be a single family house or large apartment building, and how smart you're being about food waste. For apartment dwellers, he urges to not only check the premises yourself, but also check with your landlord to inquire about the structure of the space, especially if the building is located next to an alleyway or by a sewer. He says the most vulnerable spots in your home are doors that may
Starting point is 01:39:57 have that may be eroding or don't fit snugly into their frame, allowing the space below for rats to gnaw holes, which will allow them to enter your space. He says that they will go through any opening where they can get to the food they're smelling, and then they will simply try to create an infestation in somebody's home. Dude, it's going to happen. There's going to be a story. Rats are going to break into somebody's house. They're going to freak out and flee. And take over their house. Yep. He says, I encourage everyone to look around. Check if there are any kind of stray trash cans, dumpster bags, or anything that's going to attract rats and eliminate them.
Starting point is 01:40:28 The next thing is very important. Rats are very smart and capable animals. And when they get desperate, I tell people to check their doors. You want to make sure your doors are fitting all the way to the threshold and there's no gap where they're going to allow a rodent in the house. One of the scariest possibilities to consider when it comes to rats invading your building may not be what comes to mind. Them cutting off your access to television, rats gnaw on cables. And in fact, it's been estimated that
Starting point is 01:40:54 a whopping 26% of electrical cable breaks and 25% of fires of unknown origin in New York City are caused by rats. That makes sense. It's just one of the reasons why you want to be as smart as possible when it comes to keeping the rodents out of your home. Along with the fact they're pretty darn hard to kill, they reproduce at a tremendous rate, mating up to 20 times in six hours
Starting point is 01:41:13 and producing four to seven litters of 10 rats each year. Oh my gosh. Beyond that, they're neophobic, meaning that those traps you set and that poison you laid out probably won't work very well. Corgan says that if you do happen to catch a glimpse of a rat in your home,
Starting point is 01:41:27 especially if they are children president, it is certainly no DIY job. Call your local exterminator as soon as you can. We are all going to get through this, and hopefully over time, who knows, maybe they'll teach us a lesson to better dispose of our trash and keep our buildings tighter. You know what I see from this? What? We're not going back to normal. No way. Thank goodness, though.
Starting point is 01:41:47 Right. For this, for sure. Well, there's, yeah, there's a lot that needs to be, you know, our overconsumption is crazy. Well, no, I think that'll come back for sure. I hope not, though. I think people are going to be, you get a couple stories about rats raiding somebody's house, and they're going to take their trash and recycling much more seriously. Okay.
Starting point is 01:42:06 And that's a good thing, right? Not rats in people's homes, but, you know, people cleaning up and doing a better job. People aren't going to shake hands anymore. Yep. I think that's good. Well, I guess, you know, maybe we'll bow or something. We'll come up with something better. Or live long and prosper.
Starting point is 01:42:20 Yeah, man. Yeah. Just do the Spock thing. Yeah, why not? Everyone knows what it means. Now, they're talking about rats. What about pigeons? Like, we joked about pigeons.
Starting point is 01:42:29 You said it, though. They can fly. Yeah. So they can fly to eat bugs in fields. They probably will migrate away from cities. Yeah. And then migrate back when the whole machine gets kicked up again. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:42:42 I mean, for that matter, what about all of the animals? You know, sparrows, cats? Maybe the answer to the problem is just to unleash all of the shelter cats into New York City. Yeah. Oh. I thought, I heard. I'm kidding.
Starting point is 01:42:56 No, I heard from somewhere that all the shelters were empty for like the first time in like 30 years or something in New York. Because everyone's adopting the cats. It's like, wow. And dogs. That's kind of cool. The that's kind of cool the joke i don't know if it was for cats i know it was a dog shelter that i was reading it about the joke from the simpsons was that they had the pigeon eating lizards so they're like we'll release snakes then we'll release weasels then we'll release dogs then we'll release gorillas yeah and they're like but then you know they're like what do you how do you get rid of the gorillas and skinner is like i don't know what
Starting point is 01:43:24 i think it was skinner he like, that's the best part. When winter comes, they simply freeze to death. It's like, they keep bringing in more animals to get rid of the old ones. Well, yeah, that's a bad idea. It's kind of crazy that humans have brought with them everywhere they go, these animals. Yeah, that's true. It's like, you couldn't get rid of the rats before they got in your boat and you brought them on the boat? Dude, they intentionally brought rabbits to Australia.
Starting point is 01:43:43 They had no natural predators there. Really there really yeah and the rabbits just went nuts i don't know about that australia is like they had to build a rabbit the last level of earth you know what i mean like the most difficulty the highest difficulty setting you think there would be tons of predators but rabbit weird ones what what didn't someone like bring like frogs there or something all sorts of didn't happen to some island down in the South Pacific? There was like a snake that ate every little thing. So then now
Starting point is 01:44:11 spiders have nothing that eats them. So now spiders are like taking over the trees. So there's places that like... Oh yeah, the webs are all crazy. The webs are so massive because there's just these snakes and the spiders and that's it. That sounds like hell.
Starting point is 01:44:26 The spiders eat all the little insects. The snakes eat all the, like, rodents and rabbits and everything. I imagine that there's, like, there's an elephant somewhere talking to his elephant friends. And he's like, have you seen these places where humans are out of control? It's like they take the rocks and stack them up. It's crazy. There's rocks everywhere. Right. It's like we're talking about the webs of spiders because they grow out of control yep you know what
Starting point is 01:44:48 man uh i would not want to be in a city right now because we don't either we so we live in the suburbs and there's no just like street refuse so sure we have our problem we have turkey problems like we have two yesterday we have turkey whoa whoa problem problem is a loose term we saw some some wild turkeys yesterday. It was cool. We only saw two yesterday, though. So if we get like 50. No, but one day there was like 16 or 17.
Starting point is 01:45:12 Oh, really? Yeah. Cool. Yeah, like last month. Is that a gaggle? Rafter. It's a rafter. A rafter of turkeys.
Starting point is 01:45:16 Is that what it is? A rafter? A rafter. I remember we looked it up. And they're like, but like, it's like a truce here. You know, like everyone's in agreement. You leave the turkeys alone. Let them do their thing.
Starting point is 01:45:25 Yeah, don't mess with the turkeys. But I'll tell you what, man. When the apocalypse comes, those turkeys are going to be food. Those turkeys are gone. They're not rats. They're birds. Yep. Or I, you know, honestly though.
Starting point is 01:45:33 I'm leaving my vegan at the door too. No, I just, do they lay eggs? Yeah, they do. They do, yeah. You just catch them. Keep them? You put them in a pen and then you go. You get fresh eggs.
Starting point is 01:45:42 I think it's really dumb. They don't allow you to have livestock in certain areas. So like we can't have chickens here. I want some fresh eggs, you know. I'm seeing on Twitter people are making fresh bread. I just walked down the street. There's goats. What?
Starting point is 01:45:55 There's goats like four blocks from here. We got room for goats. I just saw goats. We could get goats. I don't want goats. Oh, that's right. They scream. My gosh, they're loud.
Starting point is 01:46:04 Yeah, we used to live next to some goats and they would yell every morning. I don't want goats. Oh, that's right. They scream. My gosh, they're loud. They scream really loud. Yeah, we used to live next to some goats, and they would yell every morning. It wasn't some. It was like a straight-up farm that we lived next to. Did they smell? They were loud. No, they didn't smell so much, but loud. Yeah. Oh, man.
Starting point is 01:46:16 I'm not about to try to do a goat impression. Wait, wait, wait. Hold on. Maybe we're missing something here. What are we missing? Maybe we can harness the rat power. Go on. Well, I mean, the rats are energy of some sort.
Starting point is 01:46:27 Yeah. Okay. They move around. Diseased energy. Well, yeah, I know. But can we put them on little treadmills? Yeah. What are they going to eat, though?
Starting point is 01:46:35 I just watched a video. You're going to feed them all? I just watched a video about eating crickets. Okay. Yeah, we did. They make cricket flour. Right. They grow sustainable crickets.
Starting point is 01:46:43 They feed them healthy things. And they mill them into a fine powder. And apparently it tastes like nuts. Sounds terrible. It tastes like a nut flour, right? It does sound terrible. You imagine being milled into a flour. That sounds awful. I'll grind your bones to make my bread.
Starting point is 01:46:55 Yeah, that sounds not nice. The Soylent Green. Yeah, the Cricket Green. But, you know, I mean, everybody in the world eats bugs. 80%. So I actually tried to buy some. And it's Amazon sold out. What the hell?
Starting point is 01:47:05 Yeah, it was weird. It was like unavailable. And I wonder if like survivalists bought all the cricket flour. I'm like, regular flour still exists, guys. Yeah. But it's high in protein. It's got like, I think like triple the protein of regular flour. Dang.
Starting point is 01:47:15 Super high. Yeah, and you can use it for baking and everything. Yeah, it's weird. I went to Amazon and it was gone. So, you know, I don't know. Sad. But the point is, I mean, we're not big and you know bug eaters But apparently you can mill crickets into flour who knew we got all these rats running around if we do nothing
Starting point is 01:47:32 They're gonna invade people's homes. What should we do? I mean you just exterminate them and then just What do you do with the body waste? Why don't you why don't you cook them up? Soylent do soylent soylent rat? Soylent rat? Yeah, what? I mean, if you cooked a rat, would it get rid of the diseases and the parasites? I don't know. Wouldn't it? Probably not the parasites. Well, pork has parasites in it.
Starting point is 01:47:52 Yeah, you just boil them. They just advise you to cook it for a really long time. Gross. Here's a funny thing. Here's a funny thing. I have no problem eating bugs. Right. I wouldn't eat a rat.
Starting point is 01:48:02 Like a New York rat, I wouldn't eat it. But would you eat like a farm-raised free-range rat? Yeah, I guess. Yeah, probably. That's fair. I wouldn't eat a cricket off the ground in New York. You know what I mean? If like someone grew farm crickets in the like chocolate cover or like roasted or something.
Starting point is 01:48:18 Okay. You know, that's like a normal thing. You don't want to eat dirty things. That's the thing. Yeah. That's the problem with New York rats. But I think, I think the problem with rodents is that they don't have enough fat in them. And so it's actually – do you know what rabbit starvation is?
Starting point is 01:48:28 It's too gamey. Do you know what rabbit starvation is? No. So like in Venezuela, I think it was Venezuela, they said just start eating your pets or eating your rabbits. You can't do that. But rats are too lean. I'm sorry. Rabbits are too lean.
Starting point is 01:48:40 So if you only eat rabbits, you don't get enough fat in your diet and you can actually starve to death because you can't do it. Yeah, so too much protein will mess with your kidneys. Interesting. Yeah. So maybe... Yeah, someone brought up the hantavirus, which is literally from getting it from rats. Yeah, don't eat rats, everybody. It's not a good thing.
Starting point is 01:49:01 Well, we have a virus that was caused by a bat, so I don't think we should probably be eating any rats. No, but I do think Americans, for the most part, have a bias towards what they eat. Definitely, they do. Yeah, it makes sense. Yeah. We were talking about this before, like Fear Factor. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 01:49:17 I would watch Fear Factor, and they're like, you have to eat the intestines of a pig, and I'd be like, so food. I'd be out. So food. You want me to eat food? I'll eat the food. I got no problem eating it yeah you know but but then like and the whole thing is like eating animals in general i guess we're we're you know kind of bring it into that subject but it's like as a society we are okay with eating certain animals and in others we're totally not you know
Starting point is 01:49:41 so in some places cows are sacred you don't eat cows like you eat cows you're disgusting but we're like oh well it's a cow like whatever it's a burger you know but then when someone same with dogs and cats they're animals yep but some people some countries eat them and they view it no different like eating a chicken i know and then the people freak out and it's like don't you eat meat cultural difference right you eat meat don't you like why are you freaking out because you have they eat what you consider a pet you know it is a weird it is a weird situation yeah i i i don't i don't like the idea of eating dogs because i think dogs are man's best friend okay but what am i gonna impose my will upon an entire nation i disagree with it it. Well, the Tiger King, his best friend was a cat.
Starting point is 01:50:26 I don't think we should eat tigers either. Well, no. And to that extent, you know, it's true. It's a cultural thing. Like, I think of, like, deer. It's a cultural thing. And things you hunt. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:50:37 Things that are available to us. We're acceptable. But you know what the bigger issue is? America, in general, has just drifted towardsed towards like a primarily meat-based diet. And dairy. Right. So we disagree, you know, to a certain degree on like, you know, on dietary stuff. I don't think from a libertarian point of view.
Starting point is 01:50:56 I think from a personal health choice point of view. Yeah. But I think we both agree that Americans overconsume. Absolutely. You think more so than I do. I think, you know, a portion of your diet should be meat and it should mostly be like leafy greens and fresh vegetables.
Starting point is 01:51:11 Whoa, whoa. I think that everybody needs to do research on what their own body needs. That's a better point. That's what I always say. I am vegan for myself. I'm not vegan for you, okay? I'm doing it for me.
Starting point is 01:51:25 I feel better. I live in a world that I can do this very easily. I don't have to eat meat. So I don't, I'm not, I'm not, I'm not eating. The bigger issue is do your own research and eat whatever you feel healthy eating. Like, I'm cool with it. If you want to go hunt some food, more power to you. We just watched, uh, we were watching an old episode of penn and teller's bs yeah it's the name of a tv show on youtube right and it was one guy who was like he was morbidly obese and he was getting sleeping pills because he didn't understand why he couldn't he couldn't sleep right and it's like dude you don't need sleeping pills you need to like americans go to the store and they're like what should i eat today i know a double cheeseburger with bacon and a large fry and And also a super large sugar soda.
Starting point is 01:52:07 Yeah, sugar water. Right. But you know what's interesting is millennials have stopped drinking soda. Awesome. Yeah, they're drinking mostly water now. Sparkling water. Soda companies are not happy. It's true.
Starting point is 01:52:16 I haven't had a soda in a long time. I really like that. Someone had a rum and Coke here earlier, so there was some Coke in the house. And I was like, oh, I'll have a coke. I was like this is so sweet. It's all I can think of you know. Man. I had to go drink some water.
Starting point is 01:52:34 Well we certainly deviated from the rat apocalypse into fresh diets but we'll stop it there. We'll grab the last That's the next subject isn't it? Well no we're going to Super Chats and then. Oh wow. Fast two hours. We'll save it for tomorrow. Man yeah. We'll grab the last. That's the next subject, isn't it? Well, no. We're going to Super Chats and then. Oh, wow. We'll save it for tomorrow.
Starting point is 01:52:46 Fast two hours. We'll save it. We'll save it for tomorrow. Man, I love hanging out with you guys. I know, right? Well, we're going to read the next few Super Chats. So make sure you follow us. Our names are up there above our heads.
Starting point is 01:52:55 There I am. At TeamCast, at Adam Krigler. Hit the subscribe button. Hit the like button. Hit the notification bell. And other than that, we'll read some more Super Chats. We'll see what you guys say. We've got a few more minutes here. Let's try and figure out where we are let's see it's always it's always a a difficult time trying to figure out where the super chats left us off
Starting point is 01:53:16 i i'm just gonna take this time to read some comments yeah do it too no no i'm not gonna actually read them out loud oh okay, okay. I found it. I found it. These are great. You guys are crazy in the comments. I love the comment section. All right. Here we go.
Starting point is 01:53:29 Robert Perry says, am I here? You, in fact, are. Congratulations. You made it here. I can't read this name, but they say, hey, Tim, Utah's mountains still have a pinch of snow. Come see them. They're beautiful.
Starting point is 01:53:39 I love them. Oh, yeah, man. Steven says, sell me a beanie with your catchphrase, spare me. You see, there's always a new one. Is that a catchphrase? Spare me. I say it new one is that is that a spare me i say it sometimes but i think you know i think the issue is it comes and goes no it's that i cover a few different subjects within a similar realm and so if someone's really into say like cultural critique they're going to watch my cultural critique videos and so i'll probably say similar things yeah yeah people are into politics they're going to hear you know
Starting point is 01:54:04 different things. True. Scott Young says, here's a super chat just for the sweet summer child quip. It got a real laugh out of me. Yeah, that went right over our heads. I'm so glad. You guys are the best.
Starting point is 01:54:16 Fowl Lane says, just sat, I can't, I'm sorry, I don't know what that is. Jen Parsons, thanks for joining. Thank you. For joining. Paxton Fairbank says, starving rats are scarier because they are a similar, I can't I'm sorry I don't know what that is Jen Parsons thanks for joining Paxton Fairbank says starving rats are scarier because they are similar
Starting point is 01:54:28 they're a smaller target to hit we also have historical accounts of rats swarming animals and people like piranhas and stripping them down to the bone in fact it was used as a torture method
Starting point is 01:54:38 that's what I'm talking about I would be afraid if I saw hundreds of rats coming at me it was torture with like red in their eyes like hungry rats who wouldn't be afraid I would be afraid if I saw hundreds of rats coming at me. It was torture. With, like, red in their eyes, like hungry rats. Who wouldn't be afraid? I would be like, I'm going that way.
Starting point is 01:54:51 Yeah, I'm out. Bye, rats. Justin O'Toole says, in the UK, people now get fined for sitting alone on public benches. Video on Cheeky F.E. Carey channel. Wow. That's so silly. Chad Hurst says that Nathan Rich Guy has a smaller YouTube following, but is PewDiePie-sized on Chinese channels.
Starting point is 01:55:07 Interesting. He's the antagonist to Serpentsaw and Laowai, uses opinion pieces as evidence, misleading everyone. I don't know why he cares about me. I've made like five videos about China. You should feel special. He's got an issue with my complaining about Democrats, I guess. Type O Negative says, so do you think this is all a diversion and a prelude to war? I don't know if it's a diversion, but I think we're definitely dancing too close to war and it's
Starting point is 01:55:27 getting scary yeah it's true sure yeah that episode last friday got in my head over the weekend yeah we did a segment check it out on this channel on the video section uh the what was it was it was was it friday episode friday friday yeah we were talking about the prospects of world war three yep lots of things going on in the world that are not COVID related. Iran, China, Venezuela. Here we go. The Unrefined says, forgive me, Tim, because I hit a pigeon when it flew in front of my truck.
Starting point is 01:55:53 I will forgive you. Jason says, in Australia, gangs of kangaroos are fighting people. Is that real? Oh my gosh. No way. That's crazy. Interesting. I saw a video of a kangaroo wandering into a party, and people were laughing.
Starting point is 01:56:09 They didn't care. Dude, they're dangerous. They can knock you out yeah bro they're huge and they're really ripped i wouldn't mess with a kangaroo let's see duck says all these rats somebody be play black branding deck um mi thanks for the super chat thank you theor fander says have you heard of the youtube channel called china uncensored they just did a joint cast with adv china and in the comments viewers said that want to see your show do the same would you um i don't know i don't we'll see i mean we're locked down so i don't know if we're doing any collabs or anything natural advice says is the food supply chain breakdown coming i don't know i think so i think so i hope not no i don't know i don't know. I think so. I hope not. I think certain items, yes. But as a whole, no. I think it's time to start eating crickets. I saw videos of dairy farmers because
Starting point is 01:56:56 certain production lines are cut off. They have to keep milking or else their cows will stop producing milk. So they are just dumping milk every single day. And I'm sure that's going to happen across certain things. Not all food products will stop, but a lot will probably stop. Did you know that crickets are crustaceans? No. I learned that today.
Starting point is 01:57:20 Yeah, I learned that today when I was reading about the cricket flower. It said that they're more similar to a lobster or a crab than a spider or something. That's why they're so today. Yeah, I learned that today when I was reading about the cricket flower. It said that they're more similar to like a lobster or a crab than, you know, like a spider or something. That's why they're so crunchy. Yeah. Joe Black says, the rat king has returned. Mad Todd, thanks for joining,
Starting point is 01:57:32 becoming a member. Thank you. Wolfenbach says, the Skaven are coming. Praise be our new vermin overlords and their god, the great hornet rat. Seriously, take care of everyone, New York.
Starting point is 01:57:41 Yeah. Chuck Morris says, rats with woofloo. Game over, man. Nuke it. Yup, from orbit. Yeah. James says, suddenly the crazy cat lady take care of everyone new york yeah chuck moore says rats with woofloo get a game over man nuke it yep from orbit yeah james says suddenly the crazy cat lady is just someone who understands urban threat management yeah throw the cats drunk shovel says rat mad max what even is this timeline right henry baumeister the skaven are coming matt todd says hey tim thank you for keeping me and my wife against your will up to date with the goings on in the world.
Starting point is 01:58:06 Keep on keeping on. Will do. Steven Eskew says, Tim is thinking of cane toads. Oh, is that the Australia thing, I think? Maybe, yeah. David says, You say turkey problem, I say Thanksgiving boogaloo. Well, I meant problem as a joke because I actually like seeing the turkeys mill about
Starting point is 01:58:21 doing their turkey business. They're pretty cool. John McGuire says, before you get livestock, shovel manure in July, then decide. In the meantime, stick to taters. Well, what about chickens?
Starting point is 01:58:31 The only issue we had with the chickens last time was that they destroyed the grass. They do, yeah. They tear the grass up and they eat it. They really do. I didn't know they ate grass, you know? And we learned that. We learned that.
Starting point is 01:58:39 They're omnivorous, apparently. Michael Gale says, I used just one bite from one, I used just one bite one time for rats eating my catfish food a week later the smell was horrible in my shed two weeks later found dead snake whoa political pod it says stanton island was has wild turkeys we have deer too oh cool joe black says tim cast for president 2020 way too early i am not old enough captain sugar says lol Tim is going to create
Starting point is 01:59:05 the rat matrix. Oh, gosh. Yeah. Okay, where we go? We just jumped into Super Chat because there we are. A Fuzzy Creature says, I keep the theory
Starting point is 01:59:14 that we test mice and rats so much we should build the perfect rat soldier. It's a pet theory. I like keeping around. Squeak. All I can think of is Pickle Rick. Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
