How's it going everybody? Welcome to the TimCast IRL podcast. I'm Tim Poole, hanging out with some of my friends. Oh, I'm your friend. You are indeed. That's so nice. That's Adam. He's not going to introduce himself. I'm Adam. I wanted you to introduce me. Oh, okay.

It was a trick. It worked. Yes. And we also have the lovely Lady Lydia. Sour Patch Lids. Thank you. I like that introduction. Yep, that's our fancy introduction. Boy, is the world to end yet? I feel like like uh you know as per usual the simulation's broken yep they charged the cop in atlanta in the race yard brooks case with felony murder i can't and a collective brick was pooped pooped yeah i guess i guess uh it's nicely played yeah because no one but like how do you how you

get murder on this has anybody have you watched the video yeah and they apparently in like a press release they said something like there was no aggressive action against the police what these dudes are literally beating this guy's literally beating up these cops yeah did they not see the video themselves they're lying it seems like they didn't watch the video this is a really really crazy story and there's rumors going around right now that the police are refusing to answer calls or walking off the job rumors can't confirm it yet we'll see what happens yeah we're hearing a lot of my friend just called me and said this and i think that i think there's a lot of people online who want that to be true yeah so they want to encourage it and like yeah yeah it's happening

it's happening but i'll tell you what man every. Every single cop in Atlanta should walk out right now. I wouldn't blame them at all. But you know why I say that? Not at all. That's not, you're seeing conservatives say things like, blue flu, go on strike. And I'm like, all right, I hear you. And then you're seeing the left go, defund the police, disband and abolish the departments. I'm like, okay, it looks like everyone's in agreement.

Bye-bye cops, time to go. You either got to stand up for yourself and walk out or they want you to leave anyway. Hey, we got bipartisan approval on this one. It's time for the cops to walk out. I don't want this to happen at all. I don't want this to happen. I appreciate you cops. There's law and order in the land for a reason and they're there to if they're not there we see what's going to happen it's great i'll tell you what though i got a lot of problems with a lot of cops right now especially after the covid stuff and the like in jersey near us the unconstitutional enforcement against small business owners so i'll tell you what like we were saying this before a lot of cops lost a lot of goodwill from people that's true when they were

like there's a meme going around where it says something like, you know, isn't it strange that if you don't break the law, the cops leave you alone? It's like, it's really funny that people are sharing that meme because it was like a month ago

that some conservative dude tried opening a gym and the cops showed up and literally arrested a guy. I went, I drove down the street, what, four days, three days ago or something like that

and five sheriff cars were, lights were flashing. I'm like, oh, what is going on here? I'm looking. And it was like a chop shop. What? And it was like the owner opened and was just working on bikes. It was by himself. Wow.

Oh my gosh. Just by himself. I was like, what? Okay. That's weird. So I'll tell you what. It does look like cops are starting to get a little bit of that goodwill back. Especially because the Atlanta department's gone so over the top.

But we're going to go through this and the rumors. And we'll talk about cops walking out. But it looks like tonight, the purge. Atlanta. Oh, man. If the cops are really walking off the job. I hope you're wrong, though. I know. I know. We don't know for sure.

I am being a little facetious i guess but uh hey man if if it were me think about this man you you have a guy steal your lethal weapon yep fire it at you and they tell you that's felony murder for defending yourself what cop in their right mind would be like i'm gonna keep doing this job you're right there's a lot of people calling out cops right now and saying like, you better, you better. But we also got larger, larger scale stories. Apparently China's trying to go to war with India. But you were reading a lot about this too. So yeah, my thoughts on the matter is what if, and this is just fun speculation, everything

we're seeing from the riots in the streets to what China is doing is the pieces being lined up for an international war. Yep. Because a part of what's going on with China is water, right? Well, that's something that I think. I think that's part of it. We don't have any confirmation of that. Somebody wrote about it. Oh, really? Yeah, some blurb. It was mentioning the water control i think the new york times mentioned it this is this is what i think that is about though because of where it is it's not there are some people trying to say no that's not the case tibet doesn't have water and i'm like

yeah but that's not that's not where the the fighting is going on it's it's further uh west so i mean and and it's closer to the pakistan uhian border, which is have water rights coming from those mountains. So if China were to go into the mountains and take that water source, I mean, that's some serious change. So here's what I was thinking, right? You also have the mass exodus from the cities. Yeah. And you have all these riots breaking out. And what do we get?

Well, our cities are like what half our population and that means if we went to war they could easily just taint our water supplies in our big cities and disable half the country or hack hack it somehow hack the water sources the water rough just you know make it take a look at this and blow the pipes whatever liberals are fleeing big cities we're spreading out so it's harder to to hit the economy. And they're buying guns. It sounds like war, maybe. So this is all some weird subversive way

for us to just prep for war? No, I don't believe it. I think it's an interesting speculation. If you think about what the result will be if a war does break out, it'll be advantageous for us in a certain respect. There's pros and cons. The cons would be that we're fighting each other but if that resolves because of a common enemy then we're gonna better we know we're better off yeah but we do have

another story i put up a tweet a poll oh yeah 70 nearly 77 000 people answered yes in the affirmative that donald trump should pardon every non-violent marijuana offense. Now, and so it was legit. Like 27 said, not every, but some. And then about 53% said all of them. And we'll talk about this in the war on drugs. And a lot of, I've seen a lot of Trump supporters say Trump should just do it. Yeah, he should.

I agree. He'd win in a landslide. He would, if he was like. He would crush it. People are already saying it's going to be a landslide. But if he made that move, it's like, wow are already saying it's going to be a landslide. But if he made that move, it's like, wow. Could you imagine like we're releasing everybody for pot. It's fine.

Yeah. Free to go. Pot's illegal. So he can't legalize it himself, but he can instruct federal law enforcement to stop enforcing it. Oh, wow. He could do it. Well, that would be huge. That would be great. Because that's a big thing of why a lot of minorities are getting in

trouble with cops is because of that and it's stupid it's like stop shut her down yeah shut her down yeah but i mean it's also dumb that people are being arrested for pot anyway i agree i think i think it's time to legalize regular uh decriminalize regulate tax control yeah tax it and it'll shut down the cartels in a lot of ways you'll make the money government yeah you'll be the one making the money. No, but we're there. How many states have recreational pot? I know.

You are from Colorado. How much money did you make the first year? We made a ton of money. And technically it was supposed to fix our potholes. Ironically enough. Didn't really fix the potholes. But I understand they spent it on schools. Yeah, that's what I heard.

They dumped it right into schools. Which is dope. Put it back into into schools i'm just gonna do a quick shout out for phil from all that remains because i saw his tweet and it's a good tweet he said i'm sorry but he's like i gotta say it i don't trust the government to fix my potholes i'm not gonna trust them to take a person's life for the death penalty yeah that's he was like the death penalty is wrong because and i'm like that's actually a really good way of putting it yeah yeah if they can't fix the potholes the last thing i want to do is for them to tell me who's worthy Penalty is wrong because, and I'm like, that's actually a really good way of putting it. Yeah. Yeah.

If they can't fix the potholes, the last thing I want to do is for them to tell me who's worthy of death. Yeah. But anyway, that was an aside. I just thought it was a great tweet I wanted to mention. But how do we do this? Let's talk about what's going on in Atlanta. But before we do. Before we do.

with that being said check this story out yes this i couldn't believe when i heard it so i recorded a segment earlier all right i recorded a segment where i was like this dude this was his name rolf officer rolf i mean i think was was heard on the body camera saying keep breathing keep breathing stay with me yeah trying to Trying to save this Brooks guy's life. And I'm like, see, he clearly didn't want to kill this guy. Yeah. And then you look at the other footage and another breaking story, the other footage showing that the guy, you know, aimed the taser at him.

The other story was that Ray Shard was on probation and would go back to prison if he got arrested. And so that's why he fought them. Yeah. That's why he ran. And so here I am making this segment where I'm like, see, dude, look, this cop wasn't. It looks like it's going to be clean. He's going to get maybe some kind of, you know, administrative duty while he undergoes psych or something like that. I don't know how it works.

Yeah. Nah. I'm like, I'm sitting down and I hear, oh, they charged that guy with a felony. And I was like, what? No way, dude. Yeah, I was surprised also. This is not George Floyd. This is a guy who stole a taser from a cop after beating two cops in a fight, who was

drunk. Getting arrested for his second DUI. Found in his car, drunk, engine running, in a drive-thru lane, and they calmly were like, you know, put your hands behind your back. The dude beat up the two cops, grabbed his taser, ran for it, fired at him, and then the cop fired a couple shots and then tried to save his life. And they said, death penalty. That's insane. I kid you not.

Death penalty? He's facing the death penalty. Are you serious? Now, whether or not they actually try and go for it, the charges he would the charges this guy got could get him the death penalty or life in prison. Threw the book at him. They more than threw the book at him. They pinned him down and beat him with a sack of books.

This is like, this is crazy. Check this out. This is from CBS. No wonder cops are quitting. Yeah, dude. No wonder. I don't blame them. But listen, this is what the far left wants. Yep. They're saying straight up, abolish the police. Hey, if we can't get them to abolish it, we'll just make all the cops quit.

Think about what happens after that. Morality policing. This is the, I'm telling you, man, when New York said, we are not going to criminally charge the Black Lives Matter protesters, but if you go to church, we're coming for you. Yeah. They welded the gates shut of a Jewish playground. I said, this is freaky.

It is. This is when the government supports an ideology and oppresses people. Then we heard in Fort Worth, they're like, the people who have been arrested for writing charges will have the charges dropped. Tucker Carlson comes out and he's like, and now they're going to drop the charges. Fort Worth is just a statement saying that's not true. Tucker Carlson's lying. I'm like, wait, what?

Really? Yeah. No, no, no. We specifically meant rioting the specific word. Wow. And even NPR reported this. I warned this and everything is moving. It's lightning speed, man. Yeah, it's crazy. When did I say you watch my videos? When did I say it?

That eventually you will end up with them throwing people to Antifa, that someone will be accused of something and they'll just say, well, it's easier to deal with throwing this one person under the bus than dealing with the mob. Yep. And here we are. So when they showed up at Cassandra's house, for those that aren't familiar, Cassandra Fairbanks, conservative journalist, they showed up to her house, banging on her windows, firing fireworks. I said, it was funny because I was like,

at a certain point, they'll dox you. They dox Cassandra. And then after that, I'm like, well, you know, at some point, someone will show up at her house. We don't know when that'll happen. It was that day. Then they had this guy in Minnesota, Chauvin, and they hand him over to Keith Ellison, who's Antifa,

whose kid is. And I'm like, you see, now this guy is getting charged and they're giving him to this Antifa aligned guy who's going to overcharge him because he wants, I don't know what he wants. I think he wants riots too. Maybe. Yeah. Overcharging. The guy gets off and they say, how did he get, you know, acquitted because you overcharged. But I did not expect that in the span of like a week or two, they would be in Atlanta taking a guy who had, you know, for the most part, a regrettable and unfortunate, but clean, you know, use of force and, and put him in the position where he could face the death penalty.

That is them saying straight up, we don't care about the law. We don't care about what's written down. We don't care about the Constitution. If there's a mob and they're mad, we will burn you. Check this story out from CBS. Fired Atlanta officer charged with murder in Rayshard Brooks shooting. The former Atlanta police officer who fatally shot a black man as he ran away with the officer's taser, comma, and fired it at him last week has been charged with murder. Fulton County District Attorney Paul Howard announced Wednesday Garrett Rolfe, who was fired after the killing of 27-year-old Rayshard Brooks, faces 11 criminal charges, including felony murder. If convicted of the murder charge, Rolfe could face the death penalty or life in prison without parole. Howard, speaking to reporters Wednesday, said prosecutors reviewed eight videos of the shooting and spoke

with 10 witnesses and determined that Brooks did not pose an immediate threat of death or serious physical injury to the officers. The district attorney said the officers failed to provide timely medical attention to Brooks for two minutes after he was shot and that Rolfe kicked Brooks as he was lying on the ground fighting for his life. The second officer at the scene, Devin Brosnan, faces three charges, including aggravated assault for standing or stepping on Brooks's shoulder after he was shot, Howard said. Brosnan had agreed to become a cooperating witness for the state and testify against Rolf. Wow, dude. Wow, wow, wow. So wait a minute. So they're turning on each other now?

Yep, yep. Welcome to the purge, baby. Look, they're accusing this guy of kicking him. And there's a photo that came out where his leg is bent. And I'm like, come on, show me a video footage of this. Show me video footage proving he kicked the guy when he was down. Where's the proof? I don't buy that.

I watched that interaction on the body camera footage yeah and the officer was not overly aggressive he was very calm and he was like you want to do breathalyzer man yeah yes or no question all right let's do breathalyzer the guy says yes brooke says yes okay and then he's like can you turn around for me so i can cuff you and then the guy fights him how do you take watch that footage and then all of a sudden this rolf guy becomes this vicious snarling monster now i'm going to kick him while he's down and his and his friend comes up and starts stepping on his shoulder. I don't buy it. I don't buy it one bit.

I don't either. Look at this. Brosnan agreed to become. Wow, dude. The second officer at the scene has agreed to become a witness for the state and testify against Rolf. This is insane, man. Howard said, adding that prosecutors are recommending a bond of $50,000 in exchange for his cooperation.

They're bribing the guy. The district attorney said, dude, I'm sorry, Atlanta is a lawless state. You want to talk about the Chaz? You want to talk about the Chop? Atlanta is lawless. The cop is basically being threatened. If you don't turn on your buddy, we're going to

increase your bond to a number you can't pay yeah it's because they know that if they roll the video footage that they have a judge will be like how is this murder yeah how it doesn't make any sense but if they have this guy going oh he definitely wanted to kill him he definitely did it it's not just that apparently felony murder and as i'm hearing this from a lawyer on twitter so for all i know it's wrong but what what some people have said is felony murder is reserved for in the commission of a felony you kill someone like a robbery what crime was this officer committing by trying to arrest a guy who was in his car drunk engine running in a drive-thru lane this is open and shut dui yep and then he exactly he tried to okay i'll tell you

what right now dude dui you can kill somebody you're driving a death machine this is crazy dude while driving yeah the district look at this the da said brasnan was is one of the first officers in fulton county to testify against someone in his own department i don't i don't i don't i don't believe that i don't think i believe that i think that's fake that they're they're lying that he's actually going to be a witness yeah i don't i don't think I believe that. I think that's fake. That they're lying? That he's actually going to be a witness? Yeah, I don't think that's real. I just can't. I don't believe it. Why? I think it's fake. Because they're... I mean, cops

protect their own. They're like a family. It's true, but think about what's going on right now. You get a guy who walks up to you and says, I know you did nothing wrong. We don't care. We're going to execute you. The state will execute you. Now play will execute you. Now play ball or die.

And the guy went, I'll do whatever you say, please. Please, I'll do whatever you say. This is insane, dude. This is, there is no law at this point. You know what this feels like? If you can give a cop death penalty because someone stole his weapon

and fired it at him, what does it feel like? Execute order 66. Just purge the whole system. Yes. I kind of said it as a joke on twitter but it feels like it more and more man i'm not gonna compare the police to the jedi well they kind of were they kind of policed the whole universe that's that's true you know and and uh i've seen some analogies about like an unappointed council of people with with Supreme Law authority to go around on military excursions with powerful weapons and special training. It's like, you know, maybe they were.

It's Order 66, man. Purge the cops. I mean, but it's everything, though. It's not just cops. It's Aunt Jemima. Uncle Ben. Well, hold on. Hold on.

It's it's Magic the Gathering. Aunt Jemima. Aunt Jemima. I'm actually. It's our history. It's Magic the Gathering. Aunt Jemima, I'm actually... It's our history. It's all this stuff. They're purging everything. Order 66 has...

This is just one piece of it. But hold on, hold on. They're burning the whole system down. That's what Order 66 was. Well, it was killing all the Jedi. Which is burning the whole system down to take over. Sure. But let's not compare Aunt Jemima to the Founding Fathers.

I made that joke earlier and it didn't work because the left doesn't understand the difference between Aunt Jemima and Thomas Jefferson. Look, they're both being canceled. They're not the same, sure, but they're being canceled. It's the cancel culture. It's running rampant. It's crazy. It's true, but I got to admit, I'm fine with the Aunt Jemima thing. What, you're fine with what?

She was awesome. Aunt Jemima thing. What, you're fine with... She was awesome. Aunt Jemima's literally a minstrel show character. But she went from being... The actual person went from being a slave to being freed to then being a model for a major brand. But she was doing it. It was her recipe that they bought.

No, it wasn't. Are you sure? Absolutely. That's what I've been reading. It was two guys who created a a quick rising flower that needed a brand they could sell okay and so they used the old minstrel song old aunt jemima so she wasn't uh it wasn't a part of it no she was a model they got a model to to uh that's a that's what i read fine sure whatever but here's the point man look if a a company says this is a marketing technique and it's not working anymore, I don't care. If they're like, we literally have the marshmallow guy giving

the thumbs up and a wink because we want people to buy this. If they're like, nobody wants to buy this mascot of Aunt Jemima, I don't care. Uncle Ben either. So if your spokesperson is a person of color, your product isn't good enough. So there's no more spokespeople for anything. Because if you're a person of color, it's racist. If you're white, it's racist. It doesn't matter what it is. They're canceling everything.

That's my point. If a company doesn't want to use a mascot, I don't care. Right. If someone wants to tear down a statue of Thomas Jefferson, I care. Okay. There's a big difference. Oh, sure. So what if I came out and was like, you know, we gotta get rid of the UFO because

some people, you know, we just think it's kind of a bad representation. Like, who cares? Try it. Whatever. Yeah, try it. Seriously. I'll cancel the UFO. I'll fight you. Alright, but let's bring a bit. We got more to talk about with this cop here, right? Check this out. Blue Flu Mike Cernovich tweets,

if you're an Atlanta police officer who shows up for work, you are a coward who co-signed that press conference. You know, I got to say, I'll tell you what. I agree. Yeah. I agree. We cannot function as a society if someone is asked to do their job and then they're facing the death penalty because of it. I'll tell you what.

I wouldn't want to be in Atlanta right now. Oh, no. I wouldn't either it. I'll tell you what, I wouldn't want to be in Atlanta right now. Oh, no. I wouldn't either. But I'll tell you what, man, what are the locals going to do? Are the locals going to riot? Nope. They're probably leaving. Yeah.

They're probably going out to their family's place out in the country, somewhere, anywhere. The criminals are getting excited. Yeah. They're cracking their knuckles. They're salivating. It's going to be another run on the businesses downtown, huh? Yep.

No cops? Yep. I wouldn't be surprised if they're going out already. I wouldn't be surprised. You're right. Wow, man. How insane. That's what people are saying is that they're not responding to calls.

Well, so here's some of the rumors, right? We got Steve Deese. Yeah, here we go. He said, just got this email from an Atlanta police officer. Atlanta police officers are refusing to answer the radio and walking off the job. The county can go screw themselves. If you want a society without police, we'll give you one. Let it burn.

The let it burn thing gives me pause. I don't know. But hey, hey, I'm not going to challenge the integrity of DC. It sounds accurate, though, because when they leave, it's going to burn. That's what they wanted. Check this one out from Wayne Dupree. Quote, Atlanta police officers are refusing to answer the radio and walking out of the job.

Oh, it's the same email. A quote from ATL police officers. Well, there you have it. So it seems like it's the same source. Yeah, yeah. Now, I haven't seen a whole lot. I haven't either. I was looking for more sources on this, but it seems to be happening now.

You're not going to get a breaking news story just yet. Right. Because the journalists got to verify, confirm, and figure things out. Scuttlebutt and rumors, you'll start getting. I'd wait for footage, honestly. I'd wait for a cop to come out and be like, yo, we out. But am I surprised at seeing this? Not in the slightest.

If I was a cop in Atlanta, I would be afraid for my life. I don't care if you're a cop. I don't care if you're my life. I don't care if you're a cop. I don't care if you're a waiter. I don't care if you're a lawyer or a janitor. If your industry is being threatened unjustly, stand up for yourself. Yep. Listen, man, I've had cops that mean it's going around. It's like, have you ever noticed if you haven't done anything illegal,

then the police leave you alone? I'm like, yeah, right. Yeah, right. When I was sitting in my apartment in Chicago and the cops kicked my door and at gunpoint came to me, my three friends, while we were playing GTA, what did we do? We did nothing illegal. They were looking for somebody else. And they broke all the laws. Nothing happened about it. When I had a cop pull me over and lie about me speeding, what did I do illegal? Nothing. But I'll tell you what, my complaints over having negative experience with the cops, my complaints over the cops who are enforcing unconstitutional decrees from their governors is irrelevant to the conversation about whether or not we need police.

Right. Police reform. Hey, maybe cops shouldn't be enforcing these unconstitutional orders and we need to have a conversation about that. Hey hey maybe there are bad cops that sometimes do bad things and it happens more often than you realize we should have some reform there's been a big conversation about non-police first responders that's exactly what i was talking about before some kind of civil guard or community response you know you know division that can handle fines petty offenses parking tickets and then the cops can you know spend their that can handle fines, petty offenses, parking tickets. And then the cops can, you know, spend their time dealing with more serious offenders and things like that.

There's a complicated conversation around that. But we're actually having a real conversation about the reform. My negative experiences with police, I've got like one or two positive experiences and then like seven or eight negative ones. Yeah, I've got a few negative experiences myself. But to... I don't care. I mean, I've dealt with people that have scared me. You know, I was on the subway

and some dude pulled a knife on me because I was wearing new shoes. Yeah, it's so weird. And he looked at me and he was like, I'll cut you. And I was like, I was just sitting there. I was not talking. I didn't even notice him.

I noticed the blade in his hand. And then I looked up and he was deadlocked with me. And I'm like, what's going on? And you know what he did? He looked me right in the eye and he stepped on my shoe, the new shoe. And I was like, wow, okay. What am I going to do? Fight you? No. But I would have I don't know. I don't know what I would have done. But it's crazy. There's crazy people out there. I've had bad experience with cops, but I think of it this way.

When the cops kicked my door in without a warrant and came into my apartment with me and my friends with their guns drawn, they were asking for some guy, and we're like, who? Like, what are you talking about, dude? They're like, where is he? Where is he? And we were like, we moved in here a couple months ago. If you came to me and said you were going to put those guys up for the death penalty or 20 years in prison i'd be like whoa whoa whoa whoa dude yeah the guy that illegally entered my house i don't know like suspend him or something well imagine if uh one of your friends got killed

they came in and then shot your friend oh yeah that's a they committed a crime felony breaking and entering gun with weapons and then shot an innocent person but what if what if your friend uh started fighting them because and they didn't realize they were a cop doesn't matter they still committed a crime okay if they break the law then i think there's i think they should be held to a higher standard if they break the law so what do you look let me let me ask you a question though about this say they let the guy run away you don't think that they could have gotten in their car and followed him and been like, dude, we know where you live. He's been arrested for DUI.

Like, they could have. Nope. It's like, what? No what? They couldn't have done it. Because he was actually fighting them. Well, you got a guy who's drunk,.108, in the in the process of committing a felony offense yeah who got violent with you and successfully fought off two cops yeah it's messed up who has a history of

beating apparently being violent with other people yeah i think his kids yeah he steals a deadly weapon which which atlanta just deemed they said you gotta understand taters are deadly weapons he fires at you and in that one split second moment you have to decide does he have a weapon is he gonna kill me he tried to kill me what does i don't know what his intent is will he hurt someone else will he take someone hostage so you got a good my initial assessment was let him go the problem then is what happens if he runs and grabs a woman and puts a taser on her neck and says get away from from me, and now you've got a hostage situation. Well, it looks like he dropped the taser.

It looked like he shot it and, like, blindly. That's true. Yeah. He got shot. So I'll tell you what, man. How many of these people who think they know what this cop should have done have ever been in a situation where their life was threatened? None of them.

None of them. None of them. Absolutely not. I mean, you've seen crazy videos. Everybody has seen crazy videos of cops. Not police brutality videos. I'm just talking about plain old cop videos of stuff that they're going through that they have to deal with. Well, we have that one viral video.

That's insane. Let me pull up the story. So this was actually brought up. James Woods tweeted a video of this. We can't play the video. It's hard to watch. It's very hard to watch. That's tough.

And I'll tell you what this video is about. Check this story out. Man who shot trooper on Route 33 gets up to 110 years in prison. Fortunately, both cops survived. Here's the story. They pull the guy over. Two guys are trying to arrest one man. The one man starts fighting them and actually, you know, gets off of them.

They draw their tasers and tase him. He breaks free, pushes them down, and they don't draw their weapons. And he does. And he shoots both cops. And then you watch one of those cops with his hand covered in blood struggle to climb over a guardrail

and roll to get to what's called dead ground at an angle where he can't be shot. And this guy leans over his car, still shooting at the cops, gets in his car and fires out the back window several times and then speeds off. Then you see videos like this. This is what every single cop, when they're getting trained, sees this kind of stuff. And they're like, this is worst case scenario. You need to prepare for worst case scenario because any situation can go into a worst case scenario. And it's like, okay, that makes sense. Seeing this, it's crazy. That guy got tasered by both of them. And still fought him off. Both of them had their tasers on him. They didn't want to shoot him though.

They didn't want to shoot? Of course. Right. Who wants to kill somebody? Well, you're going to get shot then. That probably marks you in your brain. That probably never leaves you. Here's the problem. We have a bunch of stories about cops who got scared for stupid reasons. You ever see that video where the guy gets pulled over and the cop's like,

you got a license and ID? And he goes, yeah, I got it right here. And he rages into his truck and the cop goes, ah! And starts shooting him. I have seen that, yeah. I'm like, what you told him to and ID, and he goes, yeah, I got it right here, and he reaches into his truck, and then the cop goes, ah, and starts shooting him. I have seen that, yeah. I'm like, well, you told him to get it, man. What are you doing? Yeah. Now, those cops need to be, like, put on desk duty permanently.

You're right. It's like, dude. Agreed. Definitely. There is a real question about when – the difficulty is, if the cop really was scared for their life, and we asked them to enter a situation where they could be put in harm's way and they overreact and panic can we really hold them criminally liable for being scared and kind of pathetic it's it's it's a hard question but it typically leans towards the no like when it came to philando castile right legal gun owner yep the cop got scared

because he was reaching he says don't grab your gun and then he shoots him that's a very murky situation because you have a guy who has a gun and a cop who panics yep so should the guy go to prison for that or be stripped of his powers and removed there's there's it's the line is so fine i'm not going to pretend to know the answer but i can tell you in this instance at least with Rayshard Brooks this is clear cut use of force well you said it already though all these people that are saying they shouldn't do this none of them knows what it's like to be a cop

to be in their shoes and deal with this kind of stuff where anything can happen even a knife is even more deadly that you can, even a knife, a knife is, is, is even more deadly because you don't even see it coming. Right. You know, it's like,

not just, they don't know who knows, but as soon as you start resisting and fighting them, like their minds instantly get, well, pumped with adrenaline because they suddenly are going from, you know, on edge to actually fighting.

Like who knows? Oh man, this shit? Oh, man. This shit gets me. Sorry. Mythbusters did a video on bringing a knife to a gunfight, and they found that an average person, notably themselves, who are, like, middle-aged and overweight dudes,

a knife is more deadly than a gun. Yep, yep. And that's something that, like, cops are trained. He closed the distance, right? We were talking about this. Was it 21 feet or something like that? Wow. Before he can pull the gun out.

Before the gun could be drawn from the holster and fired. Wow. He was able to tag him with a knife. So people don't realize that they often say, like, don't bring a knife to a gun fight. Actually, depending on the distance. Bring both. Well, no. A knife is a guarantee.

If you're in close quarters, a knife is a guarantee. A gun isn't. You can't run out of bullets if you're using a knife. Yeah, exactly. Man, I've watched videos on knife training stuff too. Yeah. You see in the movies when they swing the knife and the guy grabs the wrist and flips him over. And then I watched a video on actual knife fighting and the guy's like, don't believe the movies, man.

No. And he's like, let me show you with a practice knife. Yeah. And woo, in like three seconds, you got five lethal wounds, just like with an untrained person swinging a knife and jabbing and stamming. You can't stop them. But anyway, in the Rayshard Brooks instance, you had a regrettable instance, a regrettable case.

We have asked this police officer to enter into a situation where his life could be in danger violent offender committing a felony yep drunk aggressive steals lethal weapon death penalty for that seriously you know these people these people who are who are saying that he should he's a murderer and stuff they don't even know the story they didn't read any of the news i said one of my high profile i have a friend who's like a celebrity lefty not only that all the news isn't all the facts aren't even out yet they're just surface looking at the surface whoop yep that fits our narrative let's run

with it go all of the activists are saying he was sleeping in his car to Wendy's and the cops shot him it's like wait a minute like you left out the part where he was pulling out a weapon and shooting at him and, like... No, no, no. Wrestling their weapon away from them.

And then shooting at him with it. Yeah. So, I did have a thought. So, I wonder if the cops in the parking lot at this one day were thinking about this video that we just watched. Yeah. When they were pulling their weapons and they were like, I got no choice. This guy, not only did he get away from both of us, now he has our taser and he's tearing off into the neighborhood. So what's going to happen if I don't shoot him?

Like, am I going to be dead too? Am I going to be shot? Whatever happened to those other guys. Or like you said, is he going to grab a hostage and hold the taser to their face or whatever it is? But it's not even about these questions. You know why? Because it is a fraction of a second

when you see the taser being pointed at your face. And then in the video, you see him switch hands and reach for his gun when he swings the taser back. The taser fires. And then he goes, pop, pop, pop. Someone's aiming the taser at your face. Yeah. How about this one? First and foremost, the cop had no idea.

It's a fraction of a second. Decide. Will you wait to see what happens? No. He's trying to kill you. Don't wait. This is ridiculous. What would have happened if Rayshard got the taser on him and he dropped down paralyzed

and then Rayshard grabbed his gun? Right. Exactly. You can't. Look, as much as people don't want to accept it, when the cops say you're under arrest, you put your hands behind your back and you shut your mouth. Rayshard Brooks should have shut his mouth. Yep.

And this is for everybody, not just him. When the cops are asking questions, what are you doing? What are you doing? He could have said, just fell asleep. Or he could have said, I don't answer questions. Yep. And then when they were like, you want to do a field sobriety test i don't yeah i don't answer questions well how about a breathalyzer i don't answer questions yep he would have been in a in a jail cell now he wouldn't be

maybe so so depending on the jurisdiction i don't know how atlanta works but uh i think in illinois if you refuse field sobriety and a breathaly, they can arrest you and then force a breathalyzer at the station. Right, but wasn't he on parole? He's on probation. Oh, probation? Yep. Okay. I mean, look, if he had if he, if he, if, I'll tell you what, though, right? Or I don't know. The first mistake that was made in this whole circumstance

was Rayshard Brooks driving drunk. End of story. The next mistake was him resisting arrest for committing a felony. I'm pretty sure DUI is a felony, right? Yeah. Yes, sir. Absolutely.

Yes. Definitely. So listen, man. I just got to say it. If you get caught, don't do the crime if you can't do the time. This guy wanted to drink and drive and risk other people's lives, and he got caught. At that point, you say, you got you got me officer put your hands behind your back and enjoy your ride downtown yep shouldn't don't do the crimes but instead he said i'm gonna make

everything worse these cops knew who he was they called they knew his name oh really yeah and apparently they i heard they called him backup because they knew he had a violent history oh wow i don't know if that's just more of the what i heard on i do know backup was on the way right it was what i heard yeah yeah yes they i think they when they found out who he was they had decided to call in backup and uh death penalty man so the here i guess the big question is we've already seen police across the country resign just straight straight up, I'm out. A lot of people are saying DUIs are not felonies. They're not felonies. And I think what that means

is there's a certain blood alcohol limit that makes it a felony. I think there's... They're saying the first, some people are saying it's usually a misdemeanor. DUI is a misdemeanor. What about your second? Yeah. DUI. Maybe I'm not... See, we're not lawyers. I think this is the second one. What about your second DUI? Yeah, maybe I'm not.

See, we're not lawyers. We don't have all this information. I'll simplify it. If you commit a crime and you get caught committing that crime, don't fight the police and steal their weapons. Yeah, if you get caught. Dude, listen, I really hate it when the left tries to use this argument. You know what I heard?

They're like, man, you got to understand when they watch videos all day every day of cops killing people they get scared and they run for it and they resist it's like what are you talking about the videos are are them getting killed for resisting like the look not every single video but i'll tell you what we do have a big problem and it's social media you're absolutely these cops who watched this one video and then they assume it could happen to me it's like bro there's 375 million interactions in new york according to nypd union okay and almost all of them positive don't assume that guy's gonna shoot you but they do well i'm thinking it's it's like in their training they they have to know that any situation can result in someone pulling a gun or a knife out you have to be prepared for that

yep so yeah i don't know especially when they're committing a crime and trying to escape and they're attacking you and stealing your weapon yep tough calls man tough choices it's hard to know what the right move is and people seem to think that if it were me i know what i would do and i don't man yeah everyone always loves to know the they think they know the answers they just want to put play the blame game look if you have an issue with police go become a policeman be the cop that you want cops to be yeah i don't see be the change you want to see in the world exactly yep exactly how many of these people are like i'm going to become a cop so I can clean up the department? None of them. No. None of them.

Dude, it's just like that meme of the feminists where it's like, you know, the woman reads a paper saying, not enough women in STEM. So she goes to college, and the next panel is her holding up a gender studies thing, like protesting more women in STEM. Like, go to school for STEM, man.

Yeah, if you want to be that in that industry do it make it happen if you have an issue if you if you're like fighting for it what are you really fighting where where was it where the black lives matter protest was all white people and all the cops were black do you remember that i don't remember where that was but something did just happen yeah i saw that this is confirmed sources confirmed that atlanta Atlanta PD zones 3 and 6 Southeast area already have 20 to 30 cops walk out. That is half of an entire shift. What's the source on that? That is Seth Weathers who reports for Weather Corps.

So he's like a weather dude. A weather guy. A weather guy, huh? He's confirmed. That's my source is a weather guy. So take that with whatever you want. What's his Twitter account? That is Seth Weathers.

That's his handle. Just like regular Seth Weathers? Yesh weathers regular seth that is very easy to find i know right seth was seth weathers here sometimes tweeting the truth weathers corp owner so can oh he said so he's tweeted it confirmed yeah yeah i'll take his word for it sources can source confirms atlanta pd zones three and six southeast area already have 20 to 30 cops walk out that's half an entire shift bravo yeah for those cops bravo stand up for yourselves man do it we need more who are these other cops that are staying there i don't know i don't know no i don't i don't think that's that's not fair at all you don't think so no because there's there are cops that are going,

if we leave, then we're going to have the whole... It's their town. It's their city. They probably love it. I'm sure. They might be the ones that I'm talking about. Like, go up and fight and be that cop. That might be them.

They might be like, you know what? No, we're here to make a difference. We want to help our community. They exist. I know they do. I've met a few of them. I have friends that are cops. And it's like, they're not all bad.

There's good cops. The cops walking off are good cops too, right? Sure. But you can't just call the ones that are staying chickens. That is not fair at all. Well, they need to have a conversation then about why two-thirds, three-quarters of them are walking half of them sorry half of them are walking off the entire shift well i mean obviously i'm not saying i blame them i'm not saying i blame them for walking off maybe a chicken is too strong but i would really like to see them stand up for

what they believe i want all of them to stand up for what they believe in and if it takes a night of chaos i don't want that i don't think they want that either but maybe that's what needs to happen i don't know i don't know i agree that there's probably a political difference between the cops and you can't tell who's a coward who's a chicken just because some want to stay but i do think the ones staying are making a huge mistake notably because the left wants you gone and the right wants you to stand up for yourself. Right. It is clear that the extremes, the extremists, doesn't matter if you're on the left or the right. They want the cops to be, you know, either expunged or just to leave. But you got to remember that these are the extremists. These are people on the far sides of the population.

And as everything we talked about, there's a bell curve. Most people are in the bell in the middle. They're like, what is going on with these two extremists? Yeah, I'm sure a lot of them are. Our police officers are the same. They're like, man, what is going on here? Twitter is lighting up with a bunch. I'm sure.

I'm sure it is. Way more zones have walked off But I got to tell you man You do not want to be And it's I believe Atlanta is trending I'm sure it is how many how much Of this might just be a bunch of people on Twitter all Hooting at each other and high-fiving each other

About what's going on and meanwhile the Atlanta PD is sitting there like We're doing our jobs we've talked about Maybe who knows the Seth Weathers guy Says he's got it confirmed. Some people on Twitter have said that absolute dead air on Atlanta PD zones five and six. Oh, wow. So I don't know. I wonder if anybody listening, are you guys in Atlanta?

I guess I could pull up my police scanner and see if I can hear anything. Later. Like the app or something? Yeah, an app. Red State just mentioned the various reports that they're walking off following this charge. This is their chance to take a stand. They have an update. They say the story below has to do with a decision by Fulton County.

Oh, okay, so they changed the title. Still, you know, I guess if Seth Weathers is saying it's confirmed, then that's the best we can say. I have no reason to challenge his, you know, integrity. Sounds like it's happening, man. Yeah, I didn't want an actual source, but. Across the country, cops have been resigning. It's exactly what the left wants, the far left.

I wonder what this means for November. We talked about it the other day that regular people in South Philly. There was another story earlier today where a bunch of 80 Black black lives matter protesters came to some small town of 2 800 people 700 counter protesters showed up weapons they were smacking people around i wonder they call it the silent majority but what's interesting is that i often hear that from trump supporters as though the trump supporters are the silent majority technically true but i think there's a better way to put it. Regular Americans have had enough.

Absolutely. Regular Americans, it doesn't matter what they vote for. Yep, exactly. All they know is some crazy people show up to my town, smashing up my stuff. Yep. And so I'm going to show up with a baseball bat. That's what I've been saying.

That's what I've been saying, exactly. Go out to get out of the cities. Go to the smaller. Get out, man. Yeah, well, I mean, if we're talking about the Antifaifa folk the the people that are smashing stuff it's like yeah sure leave the cities see what happens and go to the smaller areas and start riling up someone who will shoot you we just saw it but you're not actually telling anyone to do anything no no no that's clear yeah definitely i'm not i'm not saying it i've saying it. I was just referencing that I've been saying that that's what's going to happen. Yep.

They're going to meet the huge force of what America is. The average American is like, we're not going to stand for this. Now we're seeing it. Yep. This is what I've been saying. With some baseball bats, some crowbars. Oh, you're going to come to our small town? Sure.

Come on. Sure. We all know each other. Right. We're going to stop you. Yeah. This to our small town? Sure. Come on. Sure. We all know each other. We're going to stop you. Yeah, this is our home. 700 people. 700 people in a town of 2,800 people. Yep.

And 80 Black Lives Matter protesters were there. 80. Yeah. 700 counter protesters were like, nope. Yeah, they're about to be woken up. They want to be woke. They will. Yeah.

They will. Yeah, you know, one way to wake someone up is to, you know, give them a nice little love tap on the back of be woke. They will. Yeah. They will. Yeah. You know, one way to wake someone up is to, you know, give them a nice little love tap on the back of the head, I guess. Yeah. I'm kidding. But all right. So look, well, I guess we'll, this is a crazy story.

All right. People are, people are making fun of the Atlanta police. They're throwing a tantrum because they're being held accountable. Oh, please spare me, dude. You have no idea. Welcome to the purge, man. But I think the horse is effectively dead. We've beaten it.

Yeah, yeah. So we do have bigger stories that extend beyond just what's happening in Atlanta that we definitely need to talk about. So I'd love to talk about Atlanta all night. It'd be fun. But we got war. Now, before we get started on this segment, smash that like button. There we go.

And I read all your comments. It really helps me get more of a perspective of what you guys are feeling.

And you can also follow at Sour Patch Lids. L-Y-D-S. L-Y-D-S. Yes. I will talk helps me out. So thank you. And you can also follow at Sour Patch Lids, L-Y-D-S. L-Y-D-S. Yes, I will talk to you sometime. I'll try. But now we got some international conflict and crisis. And I do think this, in my personal opinion, there's an interesting

conversation around how how the conflict with India and China overlaps with what we're seeing in our cities with the police and the riots. But in order to understand, so I'll just give you the straight up speculation that there's been, I've said it, we're on the brink of war with China. We've had destroyers going to the South China Sea. We've had China threatening us, us threatening back. China doing like beaching trainings with Taiwan, you know, not with Taiwan, but doing beaching trainings and, you know, escalating tensions with Taiwan.

They want to take that island. Yep. We just moved some to take that island. Yeah. We just moved some carriers into the Pacific. Yep. Three carrier groups. Mike Pompeo said in February, we have been infiltrated by China. Now, all of a sudden, China is engaging in this conflict with India. And you were mentioning that you think it has to do, it may have something to do with water.

I think it has a lot to do with water. Yeah. So put a tag in that for now. And my idea earlier on is just, if we do enter a war with China and people are fleeing the cities, which they are, and then you have people buying guns like crazy, which they are, I mean, we're going to be in a pretty good position relative to where we were. Could be worse. True.

If we go to war with China, China could easily just be like, I'll put a drop of this polonium in the water and the whole city's gone. I think it would be more like they would hack our systems, you know, shut the reactors down or the water system, make it backfire, blow pipes so that entire cities would just not have any water. Right. But now we've got tons of people fleeing cities, distributing themselves about the country. So it'll be harder to hit any single point and cripple our economy in the event of a full on war. That's true. So we'll get we'll get to that. But first, we have this story. I don't know if you want to you want to read this one because you've been you've been reading into it. Right. Well, I mean, I could just I don't know what which article this is here.

This one's it's a really short editorial talking about China provoking. Oh, let's just let's just read what it says here. It says, Provoking a crisis with India, China's latest aggression. It says, China continues to mark the global pandemic with troublemaking the world really doesn't need right now. The latest aggression across the line of actual control on its border with India. Monday's deadly skirmish killed 20 Indian soldiers and likely left Chinese casualties too. Although now it's been reported that 43 Chinese fighters have been killed. But they were bludgeoned to death, you were saying.

Well, yeah, I'll get to that. So I'll just keep reading. It says, though Beijing won't confirm it, these are the first combat deaths on the border since 1975. Wow. China blamed India for carrying out provocative attacks leading to serious physical conflicts in the snow-covered West Himalayas. but Beijing is the one who's been pushing for weeks, impinging on territory it hasn't actively claimed for decades, supposedly because Delhi has modernized the highway that runs along its side of the line. Now, that's very accurate. That's basically what's happening. China has been like, we have this area. Well, I think it was in 1967, India and China agreed upon like a border line and said, all right, this is the line.

China's been building up on it. India basically hasn't been until recently. So now they're like starting to build infrastructure in this area, you know, and China's already overstepped their grounds. So India is like, hey, this is our this is our territory back off. in this area you know and china's already overstepped their grounds so india's like hey this is our this is our territory back off and uh it's basically reaching ahead now it's like they're they're finally coming to blows over this this push push back and forth and it is it's pretty crazy it was a battle in the night it was nighttime they didn't know who like you know they were fighting with throwing rocks they were they were fighting with. They were throwing rocks.

They had sticks. It wasn't like a gun battle. It was like a mountainside Skirmish? Yeah, I guess skirmish. Sounds like Antioch versus the Proud Boys. More people died from head injuries the next day. Not even during the battle. It was because they were getting bludgeoned in the head with these... Rocks? No, no. Well, yeah, I guess rocks.

Sticks. Rocks and sticks with the... I did read somewhere, I don't know if this is confirmed, but they were wrapping barbed wire on some sticks and using them to fight. And I was like, wow. We skipped over the whole nuclear weapons thing, you know? Went straight to sticks and rocks. Right back to age it is kind of crazy i got a message from somebody they said when we were talking about china and war with china yeah for one a lot of

people have pointed out china's tech is trash but another really good point is that we got a billion allies chilling in india well and and trump and modi got their their like buddies buddied up yeah it wasn't India's India's our our ally if we were to go to war with China India would be like let's do this America yeah they're the ones are into the fighting they have 1.3 billion people in China has 1.4 billion people so she's dude

it's like what is that like a six of the world fighting a six of the world fighting a sixth of the world? Yeah, basically. That's crazy, man. A third of the world fighting over there. It's pretty insane. So we would end up sitting back, and most of the fighting would be happening on the Asian continent. That would wipe China out.

It absolutely would, because we would probably go join India, and it would stay over there. Oh, dude, we'd send them crazy weapons. Oh, yeah, definitely. If we haven't already. You know, because Trump is buddied up with them. It's like the American war machine doesn't change for whoever Democrat,

Republican, doesn't matter. That still keeps rolling along. The one time, maybe not the one time, but one of the times the media is actually praising Trump when he fired 59 Tomahawk missiles at Syria. Really? Yeah. And everybody, all the libertarian types from like you know anti-war left to like you know libertarian right we're all collectively laughing like we knew that as soon as trump went warmonger yeah the media would be like what a great president i know it's not so bad they

were in a segment where they were like perhaps this is trump being presidential right it's true. It's not so bad. They were in a segment where they were like, perhaps this is Trump being presidential. Right. And it's like, you just fixed 59 missiles. You people are nuts, man. Yeah, when he does what the war machine wants. And so who was it? At least Trump didn't start any new wars. Yeah, Gates. Yeah, right.

But yeah, we also had, what was it? North Korea blew up the South Korean liaison office. The liaison building, yeah. And they announced they're going to stop cooperating. China's now the enemy. I'm sorry, South Korea's now the enemy. Oh, boy. And they're going to move on the DMZ or something.

That's not a good idea. They were demilitarizing the demilitarized zone, which is really funny. Like, clearing landmines and stuff. Wow. I thought. North Korea was? Both.

We're like, we're going to start opening things up and normalizing relationships. Now North Korea's like, they're going for it. Yeah, probably because China's like, we're going to start, you know, opening things up and normalizing relationships. Now North Korea's like, they're going for it. Yeah, probably because China's like, hey, North Korea, it's time. Yep. Let's do stuff. Start it up. Yeah, man. And he's like, okay, let's do it.

I have to wonder if, you know, we sit on the brink of war with China. Is what we're seeing now on the border with India because China knows their real fight will be India, not us. Probably. I mean, before I was reading into it, I did. So you said put a pin in it. I thought it was about water. So Pakistan and India fight over water rights from a lot of the rivers that come down from the Himalayan mountains.

So and actually the same water source, if you follow it all the way up, goes down the other way into China. And I mean, water is a precious commodity that we take advantage. People want to talk about American privilege. It's like we have running water that you can drink. That's amazing. We literally flush it down the toilet. We flush fresh water down the toilet. Exactly. That's insane. There's people around the world that don't have fresh water. Or toilets. So think about it. Man, if China goes, if they are pushing over and they want to starve out India,

if they think India is actually one of the threats, taking one of the main water sources away is a huge deal. And then when you brought that up, I was like, interesting. And everything happening in the U.S. is forcing Americans to flee cities and buy guns. Yep. huge deal yeah and that and then when you brought that up i was like interesting and we're everything happening in the u.s is forcing americans to flee cities and buy guns yep so how easily could these riots be what could be wiped away and washed up and it's all over oh man like that yeah like if that but but there's a couple reasons how it could be done the insurrection act okay the army comes in yep national Guard gets deployed

or the media stops covering any of it. That's a good point. People forget all about it. Stop shoving it down people's throats. Or an enemy that we unite against.

An outside enemy. Or aliens. Yep. Yep. Yeah. Aliens finally make their appearance and everyone goes,

oh. July. Oh. The aliens. July 4th. Independence Day is coming. It's coming. It is coming. It's coming up. Did you see the Babylon? Did you see the Babylon Bee's future timeline?

Oh man, what? We should pull it up. Yeah, we should. Yeah, do it. I don't know anything about it. Where do they post it? On Twitter? I can tweet it out just now if you guys want to. Babylon Bee is...

So weird. Do you get my quotes? You got my quotes. Yeah, we've been talking about this, man. Amy Schumer releases new comedy special. The worst part of this timeline. Wow.

But what's messed up about it is like, man, the jokes write themselves. Did you know that before they pulled Aunt Jemima, eight hours before they announced they were canceling Aunt Jemima, The Onion wrote an article saying Aunt Jemima was canceled. It happened. Wait, that was a, seriously, that's the way it happened? Eight hours before Quaker announced pulling Aunt Jemima, the Onion had published an article saying they were replacing Aunt Jemima with a less offensive character or something.

What is this? We're rushing off somewhere. I'm not sure. Oh, oh, oh. Oh, yeah. Okay. So I walk in here today. Or was this yesterday? Yeah. So I walk in here today. Or was this yesterday?

Yeah. And I see this sitting there. Can I get a close up? I can't. Can't close up? No, I can't. It's Blazing Saddles. Check it out.

This is the DVD for Blazing Saddles. There we go. I don't know when this is going to get canceled. Only a matter of time. It's a hilarious movie making fun of racism and it's but it's racist oh i'm sure it is yeah to those to everyone who's gonna cancel it do not cancel it but they're gonna do it yeah it's gonna it's gonna happen they've already brought it up oh are you serious yeah they brought it up watch me tomorrow yep yep we'll see we'll see. We'll see. All right, Onion. Don't write that article.

Don't do it. Don't do it. No. I bought a bunch of movies. You did? Yeah. In preparation? This is one of them, isn't it?

And Ian and I bought a bunch of magic cards we think are about to get banned. Man. Yeah. So for those that aren't following the whole magic card fiasco, that to me is the most shocking. Because it's like you have one of the most popular games on the planet one of the most complicated strategy games yep what it was it was rated the most complex game ever like chess on steroids yeah for those that don't know we're talking about it's this magic magic the gathering

magic the gathering it's like it's it's the original playing card game trading card and they've begun banning things like this for being racist. This card. It's called a Jihad. They banned this from the game. You can't use it. It's not the best card in the world anyway. But they literally said because the card is racist, you can't play with it anymore.

Not even game function. So Blazing Saddles and a bunch of other movies. I can't remember which ones. I went and I bought Gone with the Wind. No, no. I couldn't get Gone with the Wind. Gone with the Wind is sold out. Oh, you can get it now. It's like $150.

On eBay? Oh my gosh. Last I saw it was $150 on Amazon. But apparently HBO's gonna bring it back but if you want the real unedited version, the historical version, you better buy it now, man. Yep. That's a good point. Well, they're gonna bring it back with a prologue before the movie

starts from like a social justice warrior. So dumb. Oh, great. Whatever, man. So Ian, you guys might know Ian. He co-hosted the show a couple times. They know him as Cosmic Garth. Cosmic Garth.

Cosmic Garth. He joined me on Adamcast while you were gone. Go ahead. He comes to me and he's like, bro, they're going to ban all of these cards. Look. And he starts telling me, look at these cards. And comes to me and he's like, bro, they're going to ban like all of these cards. Look. And he starts telling me like, look at these cards. And I'm like,

these cards are all racist. More so than the ones they actually did ban. Yup. But they set the precedence, man. Check it out. People started to send, there's the angel of jubilation.

All non-black creatures get bigger. Also, hold on. It's like, there's, there's a card that people immediately highlighted when when wizard so the company that owns this is called wizard of the coast it's also owned by hasbro toys when they started declaring that art and game function was racist yep they

banned crusade because it shows templar knights and ones like raising a sword and it says all white creatures get plus one strength, plus one defense or whatever. I'm trying to simplify the game for those that aren't familiar. And I guess because it makes white creatures stronger, that's racist. So there's another card called Cleanse that says all black creatures are destroyed.

That just refers to black magic. So I immediately bought a mint version. I put it on my Instagram, so you can check it out on Instagram, instagram.com slash timcast. It's 9 out of 10. Right, whatever. Hold on. So when Wizards banned

this card because it destroyed all black creatures, immediately people pointed out another card called Virtue's Ruin. And it shows a knight, noble knight, in black goop, sinking in, dying apparently, and it shows a knight, noble knight in black goop, sinking in, dying apparently. And it says all white creatures are destroyed.

They're saying, why won't you ban this one? This one's targeting white people. And I'm like, you want these people who are highlighting this one card didn't understand is that the card crusade is just a historical reference. White knights being like, hurrah! Virtue's ruin literally shows evil blackness destroying the virtuous knight. Yep. Saying all white creatures are destroyed. And I'm like, that is substantially more interpretably racist by their standards. Yep. But this is what we have now. They're banning everything. Yeah. So the funny thing about the Aunt Jemima stuff is,

because we were talking about this a little earlier, I don't care if they ban Aunt Jemima. It's a brand for a company, and if they're like, it's not going to help me sell a product, I get it. Now, what I don't like is when companies pander by actively trying to engage in some kind of activist thing. It's like, we get it, brand. You don't care about us. Right.

Changing their mascot to adhere to a more modern whatever, whatever, dude, whatever. But a lot of people kept saying Uncle Ben was next. Guess what? Sure enough. You got it? Did you pull But a lot of people kept saying Uncle Ben was next. Guess what? Sure enough, Uncle Ben. You got it? Did you pull it up? No, no.

Uncle Ben's gone. I'm going to pull up this card that I found. I posted it on Twitter. We were talking about it the other day, but I have it here. What's it called? Oh, no. This one's so racist, bro. I know.

Oh, man. How is this? Do you want to show it? Sure. It's a magic card, man. Here. There we go. So this is Sanger Autocrat. Oh, man. How is this? Do you want to show it? Sure, it's a magic card, man. Here, there we go. So this is Sanger Autocrat. Oh, boy.

When he comes into play, create three black serfs. And if you don't know what a serf is, it's a slave. Kind of. Yeah. In essence, yes. So it's like... The whole game is done. The whole game of magic is done.

Wizards, they made their own game racist. It wasn't. Never in my entire history of playing magic, 20 years mind you, did I ever equate it to anything outside of the magic realm. I was playing with summoning creatures and casting spells. Goblins and vampires. Yeah, exactly. It was a fantasy world for me. They did it. They brought it out and said, hey, by the way, these colors are racist now.

These specific ones that we've titled. And it's like, okay, whoa. So you just popped this bubble that now this game isn't fantasy for me anymore. You made it realistic, Wizards. You did this to yourself you're making these cars racist yeah so here's here's what's really crazy about it the reference to white and black is like white and black magic yeah we have those in movies we have those in books it's a reference to night and day it uh depending on who you ask consult an expert on folklore mythology

but my general understanding is it's a reference to, in ancient civilizations, humans knew the day was good. It was warm. It was safe. It grew the crops. And night was scary and dangerous and predators. Because they believed that the night ate the sun. Yeah. And there was like this epic journey every single night to fight through the darkness for the sun to rise again.

And so from this, you end up with concepts like white magic and black magic, a reference to night and day and darkness. Yes. Magic the Gathering is a game that has those as key elements. Never, ever was the reference to white or black about race. Exactly. They decided it because of the wokeness. These this one white card must surely be about race. Therefore, we're going to ban it. Effectively telling everyone who plays their silly little goblin fantasy game that all of these references to magic are now race-based. Exactly. And then Adam pulls out a card that is a black card that generates black serfs.

And it's like, Magic, you want to play the woke game, ban the whole game. Ban all of the colors. Look, black and white. Just get rid of them. Just get rid of them. It's not just about that. It's about opening the door to the cult. Exactly.

It's the first domino being pushed over. And they did it. Yep. They did it to themselves. Kicked it over. Yep. And now what's going to happen? Exactly.

As we've seen with people like Drew Brees, you can apologize. It won't work. Yeah. Apologize again. Guess what's going to happen? Exactly. As we've seen with people like Drew Brees, you can apologize. It won't work. Yeah. Apologize again. Guess what's going to happen? Apologize again. Nothing. That doesn't matter.

You're just making their fire bigger. Yeah. Yeah. Toss some gas onto the flame. You admitted fault. Yep. Exactly. So Magic came out and said, you know what?

You're right. This game is racist. And now I can just see all the swarm of zombies have just found a pile of brains. And they're like, here's the thing about a lot of games. If there was a game where it had like one character, like let's say you're playing Fallout 3

and one of the characters in the game is deemed racist. Or you know what? Aunt Jemima. Sure. They say Aunt Jemima is based off of a racist stereotype, the old mammy,

the minstrel show character. so we've decided to change it that's one thing magic the gathering has what 20 000 different depictions of various arts 20 000 20 is it 20 it's probably more probably more than that i'm pretty sure it's over especially with alternative art oh yeah so if you go to a game and there's like one thing someone can complain about and you change it, that might be the end of it. This game,

each individual card has unique art on it and a unique function and there's 20 plus thousand. There's only one card that they banned that I agree with. Invoke prejudice.

Invoke prejudice. I don't agree with it though. You don't agree. You don't think they should have even banned that. Becauseoke prejudice. Invoke prejudice. I don't agree with it, though. You don't agree. You don't think they should have even banned that. Because the card was not itself racist. That's right. So they made it racist by saying it's racist. Taking it out.

The card was a play on racism. Okay. So this one card, for those that aren't familiar, literally had something to do with the colors of the creatures you have versus the color of the creatures your opponents have. That's a good point. literally had something to do with the colors of the creatures you have versus the color of the creatures your opponents have. That's a good point. The card itself is a play on racism.

Right. Exactly. That's what it's about. The card itself didn't say white or black. Right. It wasn't derogatory in any way. It was invoke prejudice against a color of your enemy, basically. Right, it's not a good thing. It was all colors, actually.

Right. It was specifically like, yeah, it was a card designed to thematically be a reference to racism. Yeah. So now when they loaded it in the database, they coded the number 1488. Yeah. So somebody thought it was funny. That was not a smart move. But you can change this.

We don't know if it was a joke or someone intentionally meant to do that. It was a joke. I don't know if it was a joke or someone intentionally meant to do that. It was a joke. Like, even if the person who worked for this company was a Nazi, him putting it in there he thought was funny. Like, there's no one who's going like, ha ha, I will secretly add this number and my mission will be complete. No, no, no. It was somebody messing around. They thought it was funny because of what the card represented. Yeah, either way, though.

They did it to themselves. Here's the point I'm making. The woke outrage committee have just found an endless pot of gold to be outraged endless endless you know what maybe it's good this is going to be the most glory keep digging through magic cards forever i know i do to just i have that many cards just dig through cards like sure if they want to do that have at it whatever this is going to be it'll appease them This is going to be one of those epic meltdowns in the history of the woke outrage. Yeah. I bet you right now there's some bored SJW who's going through the entire database going like,

do-ba-do-ba-do. Ooh, this one. What's that about? Ooh, green. I don't know. I don't know what that green mean. That's bigoted. Wizard said they're going to ban more cards.

And they said they're going to ban more cards. And they said they're going to ban more cards. It's never going to end. Man, that's crazy. Could you imagine playing chess? This is the joke I made on Twitter. I was like, we should make all chess pieces pawns because to have nobility is classist. And then all the pieces should be the same color because you know equality it's it's racist to have white versus black yeah and it's also not fair that white gets to go first so we

definitely got to change that and then actually nobody should be allowed to touch the pawns because that would assert your privilege over the pawns so basically we'll just have a board full of pawns you just watch you just look at it just watch them do nothing no you just look at the board you're like it's nice nope no playing games and and for that matter winning is unfair because you had an advantage by being taught how to play and someone else didn't. So it's not fair that you get to win. We've known that, man.

Think about that. That absurdity of the woke cult. Cancel participation trophies. Yes. Do it. Cancel them. Why do we have them? Oh, that's a good idea.

Oh, I don't want my kid to feel bad. Yes, but it'll make them want to be better though you're losing that think about hello think about the absurdity of the woke woke cult saying that it's unfair that someone had access to an education and it's like okay if if i know how to do a back flip and you don't you are arguing that my privilege in being taught to do a back flip means that i have to be knocked down a peg or two so there's no competition at all ever right just literally none yeah so what what is the world what does the world look like at the logical conclusion of what they do is every magic card going to just be blank? Yep. Because you can't have color? Yeah, we gotta learn how to have thicker skin

and be okay with losing. Learn how to lose. We've forgotten how to lose. Do you know what colorism is? I'm not familiar with it. It's like a new thing they invented a few years ago because they replaced racism with some kind of like... You know, they basically said that

racism is prejudice plus power. And thus by changing the definition of racism, they had no word for racism. So then they created colorism. Colorism. Yeah, where you're biased against someone based on the pigment of their skin. And it's like, bro, you just reinvented racism. Like that racism is a part of that, but you change the definition. That's the problem with changing definitions.

Yep. But they're doing it to change the laws surreptitiously, like the Supreme Court just did. Yep. So if biological sex doesn't exist, then, you know, or gender is no longer biological sex, then any legal depiction mentioning

the word gender has just changed its definition. It's crazy. Yeah, the crazy thing about the Supreme Court ruling was that some conservatives are saying legislators in Congress will no longer understand how they're drafting law if they understand that in the future definitions of words will change. Therefore, the meaning of the law is irrelevant. That means you could literally lead a campaign to change the definition of a word as a joke. And then all of a sudden, you have like, I don't know, weird laws.

Yep. Like, I don't know, it actually says in the 1964 Civil Rights Act that you can't discriminate on the basis of color. What does that mean? Color? The color of my shirt? It's color in general. Well, you were wearing a blue shirt, and it was making everyone uncomfortable.

In all seriousness seriousness what does color mean in the interpretation of the 1964 civil rights act we don't know how about i interpret it to say the color of my hat therefore if someone wears a mog hat you can't fire him because it says color my color the hat right it doesn't say skin it doesn't say body color it doesn't say hair color eye color it just says color that's why you define your terms. Exactly. So if we're going to start reinterpreting what these things mean, like the Supreme Court did, okay. Color now is a reference to anything pertaining to you with the color.

So if they say, I don't like your red hat, I got you. You can't fire me. Nope. I don't like the color of your hat. There you go. But I'm willing to bet that actually, no, I'm not willing to bet i was going to say that we get to a point where everything is banned to a degree that people snap yeah but i don't i don't know man no people are starting to fight back man they're fighting back

in the streets because they're being physically threatened well i mean it's i i think i think we're gonna see a wave of not not like a or blue wave, but a wave of logic-based humans, logic-based Americans. I don't believe it. Okay. The guys in South Philly with baseball bats were acting like Antifa. Okay. Wearing masks, hitting people, smacking cameras.

Yeah, but as you said, those are the people that are physically out in the streets. Yeah. Those aren't the people that I'm talking about. I'm talking about the new politicians that are taking over, the people that are going to, you know, people like me. You know, I'm eventually, man, I've been thinking about it for a little while, you know, getting more and more into politics because it needs to be. We need some people to take over to get in there and make a difference. That's what has to happen. We got to stop going, how are you making all these wrong decisions?

It's like, and what are you doing for decisions? Nothing. You're just letting them make decisions. So why? How can you complain and yet you're not actually stepping up and doing something about it? Like the situation with the police. Yes. How many of these people are actively getting involved in fixing these problems?

None of them. Exactly. They're just screaming. They're reeing from their corner. You know, one of the craziest things is in 2015, a 62-year-old, I think he's 62, black guy in California started a nonprofit called the Black Lives Matter Foundation. Okay. Yep.

And now that they're trying to start the global network, an actual foundation from like high profile activists, they were shocked to discover somebody has already got the name. Because the name was just a hashtag. This dude said they didn't want to create a 501c3, so I did. And his goal is to bring the police and the people together to mend

these wounds. That's great. So you know what the media is doing now? What? Attacking him. Really? Claiming he's not the real Black Lives Matter and they've frozen the donations to his non-profit. Yep. That's messed up. That's crazy, dude. That's so messed up. Yeah, man. They don't want equality. They don't want us on the same page. They don't want us together. We gotta fight that. I think it's crazy that a lot of these people are feeding into it. And I don I think it's crazy that a lot of these people are feeding into it.

And I don't think it's the majority. It's definitely not the majority. It's not. Yeah. But I'll tell you what, man. The majority that we're talking about, this other group of, I think, 35% to 40% of people, don't care about anything. You're right.

And they're the ones who are going to show up with baseball bats and crowbars when you try and knock down their statues. Because they're going to be like, I don't know, none of that i don't know none of that hillary whatever man you come into my neighborhood you try to mess with my stuff we're going to get the boys and we're gonna go outside and they're going to have all their women with them too we're going to be filming and yelling cheering them on yeah that's what happened in philly like they're going to come out and be like i don't know who you are i don't care yep i don't know about communism i don't know what you're talking about i don't care who you vote for they're calling to come out and be like, I don't know who you are. I don't care. Yep. I don't know about communism. I don't know what you're talking about. I don't care who you vote for. They're calling these people. You're not, you're not taking down our neighborhood.

Yep. Yeah. Period, man. That's going to be, that's going to happen everywhere. Definitely. So I, I heard that in the Chicago suburbs, these outside people were coming to protest. People from outside of these suburbs would come there and set up these protests and get people to march. But the people marching didn't live there. We're getting to the point now after all these riots that these outside groups are trying to come into these areas to protest

and the locals are showing up and being like whacking you with the pipe. Like, what you doing? Get out of our neighborhood. Yeah, man. Yep. Now let's talk about the war on drugs the war on drugs yeah this is this is a very very important one for all of you i think i think this is in this is huge well a question to uh all of you listening should trump pardon every federal inmate convicted

on non-violent marijuana related charges That's my question for you. 7,000, 76,826 votes on this poll here. 76,000 votes. 53.9, so about 54% said yes. 8.4 said no. 27.2 said not every, but some. 10.5 abstained, just wanted to see the results. So that's over 80% of 76,000 people that think, yes, we should do that.

Even though a little bit of them are going, you know, maybe not all, but... A lot of really good points were brought up in this. So, Sticks, Hex, and Hammer with the top slot says, Woke Smead Evity Ray. All right. Nice six. Nowad Evity Ray. All right. Nice six. Now we got Jack Murphy. All right.

Jack Murphy of Democratic deplorable fame. He wrote that book. Yeah. Said, what if Trump legalized weed and released all nonviolent weed offenders? Everyone's saying, yes, the chat is lighting up. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. Dude, Trump should do this. I agree.

I think you should. Yeah. He says that's leader leadership without capitulation. It's the moral high ground and on message for Trump. Release the black men who are shamefully imprisoned over possessing a plant leadership. Yes. I love it. A plant that was legal for the longest time.

It's an excuse in a lot of ways to even lock people up and jam them up. Yeah, that is exactly what I was going to get to. It is an excuse to lock people up and make them up. That is exactly what I was going to get to. It is an excuse to lock people up and make money. It's like a money income situation for these small towns, big towns, cities,

all of them. Look at all these yeses, man. This is great. Some knows. I saw one know so far. But check this out. We got some good points that were brought up in this right vanilla thriller says what about those with a history of violent crime that just happened to get nailed and convicted for weed i answered not all but some for what it's worth so wait wait wait did they get convicted of a violent crime do their time and get let out exactly and then they got

caught with with some weed on them exactly so they did their time what so so what we're gonna let go of that that if you if you mess up do your time and get out that you did your time exactly what what what does that have to do with it it's a good point though it's a good question sure i mean it's so violent but but you said non-violent crime and so the question is what about people with a violent history? Okay. Who just happened to be caught on this one crime? My response is, if you can't prove someone committed the other crime, it's irrelevant

to me. Yeah, they're totally separate. If somebody, now Cassandra, Cassandra Fairbanks chimed in with actually a really good point. This is tricky because a lot of them are on, are other, a lot of them are other more serious crimes but pleaded down. Ah. That's a really good point. So it was recorded in the books as a nonviolent crime. Yep.

Right. But the actual situation was, could have been violent or? So like, let's say somebody had a gun and was, you know, a drug, they were slinging drugs and they had a gun and then they ran for it and they were armed and then like you know stole someone's car or something well I guess that's I guess it's a violent yeah that's a lot no no no but that's auto but hold on hold on and then they say something like the cops say okay you stole a car

you know at gunpoint but if you tell us where you got the weed we'll drop you down to possession and distribution and then they go deal and now they're on the books as just possession and distribution. And then they get released because of that. And they're actually violent offenders. But they helped bring down, they snitched basically.

It's just an issue of there's a lot of cases where like somebody may have been, you know, selling drugs and then robs a drug dealer. And then the cops are like, we're going to get you get them on the drug charges. It's going to be difficult to prove because the other the other the victims are other criminals who won't plead down to it. However, I still lean towards I don't like the idea of a justice system that plays the game of the trial tax. Dude, that is.

No. What is that? So when they offer you lighter sentence sentences to just give up the problem with that is, because I've had it used against me before. So when I was, I got a false speeding ticket. Cop pulled me over. I wasn't speeding. Gave me a ticket. Long story short, I didn't know anything about how the law worked.

I was like 19 or so. And my sister paid the ticket for me. And as soon as that happened, it immediately suspended my license. I received nothing in the mail. Had no idea it even happened. Ticket was paid. I had my license. I was fine, right? Then I'm driving and I get pulled over and I get told I'm driving on a suspended license and that now I'm under arrest. They did something in Illinois called an I-bond where they immediately arrest me and then release me on the spot, gave me my court date. When I went to court,

I was told that if I plead guilty, I can pay a fine of like 125 bucks and get court supervision. But if I try to actually go to trial, they would fight for a year in jail. Wow. A full year. That's the trial tax. They said, hey, we're going to throw the book at you because you have an accepted responsibility. And so when I was talking to the prosecutor, the DA, I was just completely honest. And I said, can I just tell you what happened? He goes, sure, what happened? And I said, I received a ticket. It was bunk, but I was visiting my sister on a military base at Fort Carson, Colorado. And I was given the option to just pay the fine. So I did. When I was driving back, I didn't receive any notice that my license

is suspended. And I was coming home from visiting my sister. My brother-in-law was overseas. And then when I was coming back, I got pulled over and he goes, so you confessed to me that you were driving on a suspended license. Yeah, that's a year in jail. $2,500 fine. If you plead guilty though, I'll go easy on you. And I was like, what? And then when I went up to the judge, the judge, I was like, he's like, I understand you'll be pleading guilty. And I was like, yes, your honor. And then he asked me these questions. And one of them was, have you been coerced in any way to give this plea to the court? I said, yes, your honor. And he went, what? And I was like, yes, your honor. And he goes, someone coerced you to plead guilty. And I went, yeah, yes. I was like, I didn't do anything wrong. The guy told me he was going to put me in jail for a

year. And the judge goes, get a lawyer and come back and then the lawyer told me i called a lawyer i had to pay off palace money and he said just plead guilty it's the only thing you can do wow and the ticket i got on the whole thing was bunk and the whole thing was bs oh my gosh i never got and they told they said ignorance of the law is no excuse for breaking it yes it is so it's it's what oh right right right yeah so anyway anyway well i want to i want to look at this we got to give it up to elon oh so when. So when Elon Musk says, this is probably going to get me into trouble, but I feel like I have to say it and tweets that out. I don't know how long it was between the two tweets. But then he goes, selling weed literally went from a major felony to essential businesses.

It's been open during the pandemic in much of America. And yet many people are still in prison it doesn't make sense does it i agree it isn't right look at all look at this he's absolutely right this is the this is the opposite of a ratio it was it was an essential business people people can't even run their own businesses and yet weed uh pharmacies are open in legal places well hold on hold on, hold on. This Elon Musk tweet is the opposite of a ratio. Look at it.

It's got 176,000 retweets and 13,000 responses. That is a 10 to 1 positive ratio of people being like, here, here, I'll tell you what. If Trump, I really believe if Trump, you know what might happen though? Trump's not going to give it all up right away. No. If he came out right now and said,

I'm just going to do it, why would anyone have an incentive to vote for me? That's one of his vote for me, and I'm going to fight for this. It's going to be like a month out, and he's going to be like, I sat down with some top advisors, criminal reform, and we've decided to do an executive order releasing the overwhelming majority of inmates on nonviolent drug-related offenses. Yep. He needs to do it. He does. I agree.

I got to say, man, I'm a big fan of the Portugal method. I am very libertarian on this issue. And I don't mean big L. Like, I'm lefty libertarian. Yeah. Legalize them all. Yeah, I agree. Regulate, control, help people. Yes.

You know, like, if somebody wants to do a drug where they're addicted, let them go somewhere to get cheap, effective, and clean treatment to help them better their lives. That's a government program I can get behind. Helping someone. Why are you hooked on this? Why do you feel you need this in your life? Not even government, though. Sure. Like private.

Think about it this way. Yeah. Open it up so i i uh i was uh there's a story that i read about an 18 year old kid who went to college okay he got drunk he passed out his friend said he looks really bad just put him on the couch and lay him on his side he died he had alcohol poisoning and the reason nobody called 9-1-1 was because they were they were like, we'll all get in trouble for underage drinking. He'll be fine. Just don't do anything.

And he died of alcohol poisoning. Yep. That's sad. And so a lot of there have been people trying to campaign to reduce the drinking age back to 18 because you have people who are literally adults living on their own who can't drink beer like everyone else, but they will. And then they have no chance to go to the hospital out of fear of breaking the law. So I look at drugs that way. Let's say somebody is doing a hard drug and right now it's illegal. What do they do? They go to a scummy back alley shack and they start putting it in their toes to hide it. Now it's dirty. Now there's diseases. Now they're getting sick. And then they OD. Someone from my neighborhood, a friend of mine OD'd a long time ago. And dude, I can tell you a really creepy story, man. I'm going to tell you a

really creepy story. You want to hear a really creepy story? Well, now you got to tell me. I got to tell you. So let me just wrap up this one thought and I'll tell you how crazy the story is. But if we had even private facilities that controlled the use of a certain of any drug, then you have someone come in. They're not going to OD because you've measured, you've calculated, and you got someone watching and making sure they're doing all right. And then guess what? You can tax it. You can control it. When you when you ban things, you lose control of it. The same thing is true for the speech on these platforms. True. Like this is what I've said when they banned Sargon of Akkad from Patreon. I'm like, Patreon could have actually went

to him and said, promise us you won't say this word again. You're good. And he would have been like, you got it. No problem. Instead, they were like, we're banning you outright with no recourse. So what happens? He has no incentive to do any better, you know, or do anything that they would consider to be better.

He just carries on like normal. In fact, it actually, it pushes people into the darkness because they have nowhere else to go. So anyway, that's my pitch to this, but I want to tell you a crazy story oh do tell but this is just a weird listen man so at this point it may be it's from my neighborhood from decade plus ago you know 15 years ago whatever you mean chicago chicago south side of chicago and this is the story as it was told to me and i think just be fair, they may have embellished because they wanted the story to be true. Okay. But there was one dude in my neighborhood who was always working.

He worked at a fast food restaurant. And he always worked late shifts. Just always worked. People would hit him up. Hey, can you come over? No, I'm working. And he'd be like, you sure, man? We're going to go out and we're going to go to a party.

He's like, no, I'm working until like one in the morning because he worked at a Taco Bell. Okay. So one day, for no reason, he goes to his boss and he says, I'm not feeling good. I just, I got to go home, man. I'm not feeling good. And the boss was like, you sure? Like you always work extra shifts. You always pick up late hours.

Hey, man, look, if you know, whenever I've needed your help, you've always picked up shifts. So if you need to take some time off right now, for whatever reason, just go really, really strange in the middle of his shift. He just said, I got to leave. I don't feel good. He didn't go home. He started walking down Archer Avenue and he walked two miles to another one of our friend's house. And he doesn't know why. He doesn't know why he took off work. And he showed up. And what did he find? Two of our friends OD'd in a car.

And then he called 911 and they saved him. And they said, if you didn't get here by the time you did, these guys would be dead. And then one of our friends was like, bro, weren't you working tonight? And he was like, yeah. And they were like, why'd you leave work? I was like, I don't know, man.

Wow. Like, why did you, you walked out of work. You never do that. And he was freaking out. And he was like leave work? I don't know, man. Wow. Like, why did you? You walked out of work. You never do that. And he was freaking out. And he was like, bro, I don't know. I just felt like I had to come here, dude. Yep. And then what did he find?

Oh, my gosh. Now, I'll tell you what. It's a crazy story. So I kind of am like, yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, maybe it's just like. I don't know. Right? But I think a lot of people want to believe that there was some kind

of divine intervention that saved those guys lives i i think humans have have abilities that they have yet to tap because we're we're just so comfortable in our lives right now we have no reason to be be pushed to use these abilities not not i don't know what it would be, but it's an intuition, if you will. Your instincts. Follow your gut. I've had so many instances where I didn't follow my gut, and I'm like,

man, maybe I should stop skateboarding right now. And then you get hurt. And then, boom, I get hit by a car and fracture my cheekbone. That happened? Straight up. Wow. I had the instincts,

and I was like, man, I should probably take it easy, chill for a little bit but no boom get hit by a cab like a half a block later here's the here's the crazy thing depending on who you talk to about that story you'll get different responses obviously when i would talk to my religious friends they'd be like bro that's a guardian angel right there that's god that's that's that's you know that's the lord saving the lives invoking that man to do something he wouldn't normally do to be the miracle yeah my hippie friends are like bro dude premonition he could see it quantum entanglement and it's right just like and i'm i'm like yeah or like it's just it happens sometimes

it rains you know what i mean yeah it's still a crazy story i love that story and i'm like it's just it happens sometimes it rains you know what i mean yeah it's still a crazy story i love that story and i'm like it's a good story it really could just be embellished because everybody loves a good story but true i can tell you the bulk of it is true they were found they got pulled out he like sprayed him with a hose then like the the they got an arcane and they were like these guys would have been dead man wow if you didn't just show up randomly and some people took it to a dark place and me it was like nah they hit him up and they were like we're gonna score you want to come by and i'm like they were od'd like they were in the car already yeah they weren't waiting for him like that's why i don't buy it and this dude worked all the time he never took off work

yeah like why why why yeah why would you assume that he wanted to get in on it when he was the one who never left work i'm not saying the guy was a good dude or anything. Yeah. But he worked at a fast food restaurant and he always worked late. The one time. Wow. That's crazy, right? Yeah.

Yeah. Who knows? Sometimes people win the lottery. You know what I mean? It's true. But I think a lot of people like stories like that. They want to believe them because it gives you something. There's something bigger than you.

Maybe there's a purpose. Maybe there's something we can't see. You call it abilities. Got intuition or something. Some people might think it's divine or some kind of hidden force guiding us and keeping us safe. Or a mix of both. Yeah. I mean, I don't know what happens after I die.

But I'll tell you what, when I die, I'll know. That's right. Or you won't because the concept of knowing is in your human body, man. That's exactly true. Do you remember what it was like before you were born? Nope. Exactly. Oh, I hate this question.

Right? Because I was like, why? Yeah. I don't know what happened. I don't know what was going on before I was born either. And for all I know, it's just going to be like that after I die. But why do you hate that, though? It goes counter to everything that I was raised with well you know what I don't know but I do know one thing

that is absolutely true I am alive right now yeah here I am I'm here speaking to you I'm alive I'm so happy to be alive I love this planet I love the sun praise the sun men big ball energy keeping that grass growing and that fruit's coming and we eat various forms of it. We are all just comprised of various amalgamations of random solar energy. This is exactly this is why I

like stoicism because their focus is on every single second. You live in the moment. You don't worry about the future. You don't fret about the past and you don't waste time on regrets. You spend every moment in the moment and that's the worry about the future. You don't fret about the past. And you don't waste time on regrets. Boom. You spend every moment in the moment. And that's the way to do it.

I'm like, I don't really see a better way to do it. There's nothing better than that. So. I think we, man. You know, I love having conversations about time, reality, purpose. Wasn't that what our show was supposed to be about? No, but it was partly. Kind of.

Part of it, yeah. We're doing it right now. What do you mean? We're on the show talking about. And but it was partly. Kind of. Part of it, yeah. We're doing it right now. What do you mean? We're on the show talking about... And I'm so happy. I know. I love it so much. I'm so happy right now.

It's so great. Look, when it comes to... Oh, man. Let me tell you something. Let me tell you something. This segment we're doing right now is about pot. Oh, yeah. We totally just had a stoner conversation.

Oh, yeah. Oh, for sure. With no pot even. People do say, you're the bigger stoner than me. Totally. of true which is pretty hilarious not true come on really i don't smell oh wait hold on i mean literally wait wait wait up up hippie he's taking his there we go there we go okay yeah there we go what do you think about that i don't smoke i don't smoke i don't drink no no drugs yeah none of that stuff no that's true yeah i don't i you know to go back to that story because i didn't mention maybe it was embellished when i when i you know i think it happened but i think people are looking deeper into it because

they want to have some meaning or they want to have you know they want to believe yeah they want to believe that everything's going to be okay you know yeah people are scared of dying for for obvious reasons like everything that's alive life life ends we got it we got to cherish that yeah we got to stop being afraid of things thicker skin confidence you only get one life man right live in the moment so i'll say it one more time cancel participation trophies excellent advice from adam seriously this that's a big reason that's part of it we're teaching our kids that you don't have to fight to survive we have fought to survive for so long that's what humans do that's why we took over this planet yeah man could you imagine living in a world create where these people take over and

life is no there's no journey anymore? I mean, that's happening. Everybody thinks, you know, they say things like the ends justify the means, but it's not true because you never meet the end. No matter where you are in life, you're always looking off in the distance. You're chasing the dragon, man. Yep. So what world would they create where everyone sits around in a circle and a gray jumpsuit with shaved heads and just does nothing? Exists.

Eats their green cube of protein mass? What's that movie, Equilibrium? Yeah. You've seen that? No emotions. No emotions. Just gray NPCs living. For what?

Sounds horrible. That's what it's all about, man. They're banning art. Exactly. All right. How about we do some super chats? Yes. Woo.

Smash that like button. Whoa, whoa, whoa. I'm sorry. He's maxing out the speaker. I'm not sorry. So smash it. Give a little tap there. No, smash.

Let's do it. bell and then make sure you click alert me via email or whatever it is that pops up all right we got some super chats we're gonna start with so we're we're we're gonna try and reason as we can

oh man let's do it oh did it just erase some no no no no you can't i hope not i hope not sorry if it did deplorable pirate captain gunbeard says sierra papa india november wait wait wait hold on what spin spin the ufo no no you got to read the whole thing, though. Yeah, okay. Sierra Papa, India, November, Tango, Hotel Echo, Uniform, Foxtrot, Oscar. I love it. Yes. Excellent work. That is great. I got it right away.

For all of you listening right now, I want you to know this. I am spinning it for you, Mr. Gunbeard. Check this out. I want you to understand the privilege that is we at TimCast IRL. You see, someone just gave us $10 to spend 10 seconds spinning a UFO. Whoa. Whoa. That is privilege. That is we at Timcast IRL. You see, someone just gave us $10 to spend 10 seconds spinning a UFO. Whoa. Whoa. That is privilege.

That is amazing. Seriously amazing. Thank you, dude. Thank you so much. Got it spinned for you. Yep. Fiend5 just says, Timmy. King Canuck says, took me forever to find this stream today.

Love you guys. You lost the game. I recommend doing stickers of your patterns too. Laptops, boards, et cetera. It'd be great. Have a great night, all three of you. That is a really, really good idea. We should definitely do some Harumph stickers.

Ooh, Redbubble. I'm on it. Redbubble? Yeah, that's a company. I don't know what that means. FailsRisk says, What are your guys' thoughts on the two incidents with North Korea, South Korea, India, and China?

Well, we did a segment on it, so I think, you know. Well, that was, yeah, in the past, so. Michael Smith says, Dems just voted no to amend refusing funding to police departments that allow police union coal barge agree. What is what I don't know that means that destroy police discipline records and allow fired officers to get other jobs. I don't know much about it. Yeah. Cole Erdman says, speaking of Trump,

what do you think would be better for him sending in the National Guard or having the CIA, FBI and other Fed agencies arrest Antifa leaders and riot writers secretly. I think the people who should be arrested should be charged appropriately and they should be arrested for the crimes they've committed. We know they've they've committed. However, it has to be a federal crime. That's that's that's the issue. So a lot of these instances, if we're dealing with cross with state line crossings and stuff like that, then perhaps Trump would need to send in federal law enforcement. If it comes to the overt rioting that won't stop, then I don't know if the Insurrection Act is the right move. I tweeted about Trump needing to, you know, to get up and do something. And a lot of people were claiming

that I was calling for the military. I'm like, no, I'm saying you need to do something because he gave up and he made one statement about the Insurrection Act and nothing really happened. He did the police reform thing. And I'm like, act and nothing really happened he did the police reform thing and i'm like okay okay all right the police reform thing sure but then you have the the mayor of seattle going this is great we want this to happen yep so what is he supposed to do i mean that's your mayor you voted that person in that's what they want okay the police reform executive order was something that's true yeah so he did do something right exactly and that's why i'm like i was like what's he doing and then he did do something. Right, exactly. And that's why I'm like, I was like, what's he doing? And then he did something. I'm like, all right, that's what I want to say. Like he did something. A lot of people weren't happy because they said that he

was capitulating, that it was like, here's police reform. But I think that if you have someone who's going to enact real leadership, it's not going to be in favor of just one faction. He's got to find something that can actually be amicable for both sides. And so he tried to find a way to defend police and respect them while also implementing a program that could – actually, I think the police reform thing had some really good ideas. The idea being that police departments will be eligible for grants if they adhere to certain guidelines is a positive. Yeah, I like that. So it's like you do this and you get some loot. It's a positive reinforcement.

Yeah, I like that. Yeah, so there you do this and you get some loot it's a positive reinforcement yeah i like that yeah so there you go that's that was my point word delamar says you three need to watch pcu from 1994 with jeremy priven about pc culture in the 90s and colleges lived through it you'll get a laugh was based on wesleyan uh uni what is that uh wesleyan university in connecticut interesting graph von tyrell says i hear that atlanta da has some misgivings on his own right in uni. What is that? Wesleyan University in Connecticut. Interesting. Graf Von Tiro says, I hear that Atlanta DA has some misgivings on his own right. And he had the sheer audacity of pressing charges when video evidence puts the cop clearly in the right. That's why this is scary. Yeah, it's crazy.

Hell says, question for the beanie. How much longer before we will be allowed to submit? We've had enough and are willing to accept a world ruled by comfortable headwear. Are you saying submit to the beanie? Yeah. Go buy beanies. Go ahead, do it now. Submit to the beanie.

Do it. Elijah says, Expressing my support for you guys, since y'all seem to be the most sane in these insane times. Recently graduated from Air Force Basic, and it seems like the world just fell apart. Spin the UFO. I'm gonna spin it for you.

Do it. Thank you for your service. Nereus, thanks for becoming a member. Hooligan Broom, thanks for joining. Some Sivi says, Read the fourth turning. History predestines the millennial crisis 2005 to 2030.

As generational ideologies conflict, society is deconstructed and catastrophe follows until leadership is reshaped and our values redefined. Well, I don't like the cult of wokeness values because they don't know anything. They're walking around being like,

did you hear about the man who killed the guy who was sleeping in his car at the Wendy's? What an evil man. And then when you're like... Oh my gosh, blazing saddles. They say the N word. And then you're like, oh, actually the guy in the car was drunk,

resisted, beat two cops, stole a weapon and fired at him. That didn't happen. You're lying. There's a video of it. No, it's not. You're lying. I don't watch videos.

The video was doctored. You're a conspiracy theorist. I don't need to see the video, Tim. I know that they killed him. Yeah. On purpose. That's why it's like, what do you do? What do you do when people who are like, I don't read the news and I don't want to?

I don't understand. Yep. Chris says, Hey, Tim, did you know that every time I've tuned in this week for the podcast, it's been a Joe Biden for president ad that plays.

Even funnier, he stumbles through the words and has a gaffe in five seconds. Is that, is he really? Is that real? Is that a thing? Wow.

I don't know about the ad, but I'll tell you what. Smash the like button? Sure. But one of the things I absolutely love about how youtube's ads work is that i have nothing to do with the advertisements that appear in my channel

youtube just randomly assigns them yeah it's funny and it's like if they're gonna show a joe biden ad and listen to us at all they'll be like wow hold on joe biden that is a joke but exactly but they want that because when we talk bad about Biden, they want their positive message on top of it. Right. I love this. You know why? And but he gaffes and stumbles through it.

Sure, sure. But check this out. Our point. So I have some sponsors that I do. I do like out of the what do I do? 180 or more 200 videos. Well, now it's like 300. Six of them will have a sponsor spot.

So I do very few. But I actually read this and I only do sponsor spots for things that I actually think are legit. That's how I would do it. So I recently added something. It's like a collagen stuff. It's literally just collagen. It's a company that does collagen powder. And I'm like, I

actually need that because I've been skating so much and I'm an old man. I'm 34. That's ancient in skateboarding, man. For real. Skateboarding years. It's like, oh, my knees. Oh, I got to jump off a building. Can't do it. Yeah.

Whatever. The point is, I have to actually endorse this, right? Okay. Where I'm like, I like this product. I really do. It actually is good. It makes the smoothie taste kind of creamy. I'm going to take this moment to say, Field Roast, you should sponsor me because I'm spreading

the chow cheese word. Anyway, here's the point. No, no, no no no no field rose hey listen holla holla at your boy if joe biden if joe biden came to me and said oh tim uh we want to give you the money for the you know the you know the thing on the youtube i'd be like i am not going to read a positive message about joe b I'm sorry. Nope. However, I still get those sweet, sweet Biden bucks because he wants to run his ads on my videos where

then you get to listen to the ad and then I get to say something like Joe Biden is demented and is out of his mind and you would be nuts to vote for him. Yeah, right. So thank you for your money. Great. We appreciate it. So somebody mentioned that. Who is that? Who is that rich guy? Tom Steyer, I think. Yeah. Okay. Ads were appearing on my channel and Bloomberg.

And I'm like- Oh, yeah. I remember this. Look, man, if Bloomberg, first of all, if Bloomberg wants to put his ad on my video, I like the idea that people will get a counterpoint to what I'm about to say. That's a good point. And I have no problem taking his money to badmouth him. You know what I mean?

So it's- Yeah, it was like right when we started this show. Yeah, that was a while ago. Yeah, Bloomberg. What an awful man. What an awful man. What an awful man. Don't miss him at all. Yeah.

Merrick says, I am very good at magic. It's Merock. Merock. What up, Merock? He says, I am very good at magic. He is very good at magic. Is he? Yes.

Big old super chit. That's my homie. All right. What up, dog? Thank you for the super chit. John DeLong says, thank you. Appreciate it. Outlaw Bear says, America is screwed if a cop defending his life

is charged with murder a man who protects himself from an angry mob is arrested when cops are leaving en masse we are walking a fine line right now I don't think we're walking

a fine line I think it's like I think we're falling off a cliff some people are walking the fine line but there's many people out there

that are standing firm going wait until you cross the line listen and even going as much as going, wait until you cross the line. Listen. And even going as much as saying, I dare you to cross the line. Come over here and cross the line. I'm seeing it.

And we're going to see it more and more as the days go on. Everything in this country could end. All the rioting and the craziness. If the Atlanta PD en masse has a blue flu. I think you're right. We'll see. Because then the rest of the country will get a cold wake up call to what happens when the cops are like, you don't want us? You don't need us? Fine. Bye-bye. Yep.

We'll see. Gus says, Tim, did you see Vice News reports live in CHOP Seattle? They were showing how peaceful it is. Yeah, Vice used to be all about the edgy darkness and now it's all about... It's CHAS. It will forever be CHAS. In our hearts. Yeah, for sure the jazz shop

desmond says answering earlier question founding fathers would say we warned you about cities and newspapers we're catching a ride with elon to start a new republic on mars occupy mars yeah james says adam please check out the commonwealth series by peter f hamilton best sci-fi series i've ever read pandora's star is the first book. Cool. Alright. I'll check it out. Didactics with David Lopez says, I have been a viewer since day one. Seeing Adam gradually get into politics and have a rational viewpoint is one of the best parts of the show.

That's great, right? Look at that. Thank you so much. I appreciate that. I like logic. I live my life with logic. Well, you're being slammed by people on Twitter who are like, hear my thoughts. And then you're reading them. reading them well i mean i'm also taking a logical standpoint because not all of them are logical statements so i mean and not all of them agree with me yeah so i'm getting all sides of everything and that's fine i still will live with logic and that's how i live my

life this one's for you, Adam. Okay. Oh, boy. Bradley Poole says, wait till those participation trophy kids grow up. Welcome to 2020. Enjoy your stay. Yep. Yep. That's it.

Every kid who said, I want a prize for doing nothing. Yep. That's who's out there LARPing. Yeah. Yeah. Yep. They all got their prizes, and they're like, look at my prize. Woo! The health care is a human right.ing. Yeah. Yeah. Yep. They all got their prizes and they're like, look at my prize. Woo!

The healthcare is a human right. Oh gosh, yeah. Yep. Do you know what negative and positive rights are? Do you guys, you're familiar with those terms? Yeah.

So a negative right to life would be that I can't kill you. Okay. A positive right to life would mean that if you were dying, I would be obligated to save you. You see the problem with that? Like if I'm walking down the street and I see you spazzing out,

I have no obligation to save your life. Now, if I see you walking down the street and you have a negative right to life, I am obligated not to kill you. Negative rights are great. Positive rights get freaky. And the left right now is advocating for hardcore positive rights. Like, we should get these things.

Like, we should have a right to this thing. No. Man, all those people drive me crazy because they have no idea the amount of things they already have. Yeah, I know. Yeah, exactly. Wait till those things are taken away from you

and you're going to have an eye opening. Did I ever tell you the favela story when I was covering for Fison? I kind of know about this, yeah. So, I went to a favela, it's a shanty, it's Brazilian shanty towns. And I was talking to like a mother

and they couldn't flush their toilets. Like their toilet was just stacked. It was gross. They were like, here's, I was like, you have a bathroom? Like, yeah, there you go. And they point, I'm like, that's okay. I'll wait.

I can't imagine it. She asked in Portuguese. She said, why are the rich people in America protesting? And I was confused. How long ago is this? This was 2013. Yeah, this was like 2013.

So it was like Occupy was mostly over, but it was still kind of flickering here and there. And she was like, she asked the question, the translator who then asked me, she's like, oh, she says, why are the rich people in America protesting? And I was like, there's no rich people in America protesting. What do you mean? And then he asked her and then she mentions Occupy Wall Street. And he goes, she's talking about Occupy Wall Street. And I said, no, I mean, the Occupy Wall Street people are like college kids and people who are upset about the financial collapse. And they're like, they're young. And then I was like, it's not the rich people. The rich people are the ones they're protesting

against. And then he tells her this, starts laughing the rich people. The rich people are the ones they're protesting against. And then he tells her this. She starts laughing, says something. And he goes, she says, all Americans are rich. I'm like, standing here in this shantytown where they can't flush a toilet. And I'm like, uh-huh. Yeah, you're right. And I just laugh. You got, yeah, I got nothing.

You're absolutely right. You can't even flush your toilet. We have toilets. We flush our poop away. You want to know where their poop goes? Where? Out on the street? No, no, no. Hold on. You can watch the interview where I interviewed the gang member. It's called Contra Acopa.

It was published in 2014. Was it Contra Acopa? No. When I was there, this was in 2013 during the bus strikes. Where does the poop go, Tim? Where does it go? There is an exposed canal next to their houses with PVC pipes just jutting out. Oh, man.

And they go... That's how you get the Black Plague. Have you ever seen Envy, the movie Envy? No. Where does the poop go? Oh, it's a funny movie. And there's water flowing down. They wait for rain to wash it all down the hill.

Oh, man. Yeah. But I interviewed a Brazilian gang leader, and we're standing on a bridge over the poop canal. No. As he's talking about what's going on and stuff. I think standing on a bridge over the poop canal. No. As he's talking about what's going on and stuff. I think I have a photo of the poop canal, actually, on my Instagram. Oh, I'm going to have to look it up. Oh, man.

And look, I mean, no disrespect to them. She wasn't trying to dig at me. She was just saying like. She was saying the truth. Yeah. But comparatively, it's true. In her mind, America is a bunch of rich people who are complaining. Yep.

And when I explained what Occupy was, she thought it was hilarious. I would too if I was in her situation. The rich people. Could you imagine? It's funny. I imagine someone living in a small town where their factory closed and they make very little money and they're poor. Yes. In a trailer, for instance.

And they look to the news and it's a bunch of rich trust fund kids in New York protesting. And you have to be like, what are they doing? Yeah. You know? Yeah. All right. Let's read some more. Brian says cities and states have been diversity hiring and promoting for the past 10 years.

And Atlanta is what happens when government HR departments get woke. ATL was ransomware a few years ago and it came out the IT people were all Phoenix U grads. man ario says hey pool party take some take some uh take some of what is left of my trump box and keep on keeping on i'm a little busy at the moment so i'll miss the live but i'll re-watch later tonight i hope it's a great show as always appreciate it thank you ryan rigsby says keep up the good work appreciate it skywriter says have any of you ever played Ratchet Deadlock? The villain is the CEO of a company called Vox, and the running gag is all the fake news

leveled against the main character, Ratchet. Looking back, it feels more like a prophecy. The game released in 2005. I never heard of it. Never heard of it. Was it PlayStation? No, I don't know. Let's say, Lior Eggelstein says, hot take on Twitter.

The only way to be 100 sure that your food mascots aren't racist is to make make them all white wow yeah technically but they'll they'll come for you after that it won't matter well if it's all white then it's not uh diverse diverse enough right you're canceled anyway just make it yellow no cancel everything i was gonna say smiley face but then i realized like yellow is also racist. Just make it vegetables. Yeah. There you go. Or a blade of grass.

A blade of grass. I don't know. What else have we got? I got it. You know what a zentai suit is? No, what? It's like a spandex suit that covers every inch of your body. Oh, okay.

You ever see It's Always Sunny with the Green Man? Yeah, I know what you're talking about. Yeah, and so he's like dancing. Yeah, okay. That's it. That's your mascot. The Green Man. Now look. Or a wacky, wild, inflatable arm waiting well i can't do it how about it's a person but they're wearing a giant card a box cardboard box over their body

and a cardboard over their head but you can see their feet wearing shoes so you can't tell if it's a man or a woman okay you can't tell their height or race. Nice. And there you go. Non-descript human. Yep. What a fun life. Yeah, it's great. Yeah. I'm excited. Ugh. Ma says, let the police boycott crime and see how long before people scream about it. A couple hours?

Yeah. The Murray Hill riots was like 16 hours and limousine company got burnt down by the rival taxi company. It's going to happen. That's the funniest part, man. Carnell says hey tim did you hear a chas community member defended theft after a citizen reported his computer food supplies and 400 stolen it was claimed to be considered as an unplanned donation to the chas

here's the problem people were saying is this a troll post because they couldn't tell wow someone's tent got robbed of everything. They posted about it. And someone responded, please don't take it out on the community members. Someone needed that more than you did. You need to understand, you know, blah, blah, blah. Wow. And it was serious. We don't know.

Still. So it may as well be serious. You ever see that Shen comic? Do you know Shen? No. He made a comic where it's like his guy, his character, walks up to his bike rack and his bike is gone. And then he says, so my bike got stolen today. And I was upset about it at first.

But then I realized whoever stole it probably needed it more than I did. So I guess they were happier to get it than I was sad to lose it. So the overall happiness in the world went up. Dude, that comic made my blood boil. I was like, are you freaking kidding me? Yep. Give me a break and then it became a huge meme that was ridiculous where yeah he was like i'm being beaten by a bunch of you know gangbangers

but they probably are happier to beat me than i am sad to get beaten so it's like dude it's logic he's gonna follow it through but yeah so this is the logic we're now seeing in the jazz yep your stuff wasn't stolen it was redistributed to the community that's that's what they said it more than you it was it was redistributed to the community well no it wasn't welcome someone someone not from chas went your tent stole your stuff and left with it yep they didn't need it more than you they sold it and then they bought food yep or a bike yeah we're drunk yeah let's see ryan e says i hope you guys got my old intel squadron patches and coin thank you for all the work you do tim thank you adam for being the voice of every average american and thank you

lydia for spicy memes keep it up thank you so much i try we did get the coin it has like the bottle opener on it right i think oh i saw that yeah yeah the patches right on sure yeah zachary bird says the double think from the media is only going to get worse as the election gets closer this country needs to don their mental armor and be prepared to question everything they hear and read. Also spin the UFO. Do it. The UFO shall be spun. Yes. Lucas says, do you think the counterfeit bill Floyd used was a China buck? We talked about that because it wasn't too far away from Milwaukee where money was coming in but you know there's no real way to tell for sure and to be honest there's a lot of

counterfeit money all over the place there's so many conspiracies going on about all that for sure it's just like i don't even know what is going on anymore there's a really interesting medium post explaining why chauvin and the rest of them are going to get off they're not they're not going to be convicted at all really it's really interesting because it talks about police procedure it talks about police procedure. It talks about what the lawyer, the defense, will actually be able to argue. And the defense is a very, very good argument. Really good.

The coroner's report is going to be reasonable doubt easily. Because the coroner's report said that he was suffering from a heart issue as well as being on drugs. So right then, that's doubt. Did he die from the drugs? Yep. And you're trying to get him on second that's doubt. Did he die from the drugs? Yep. And you're trying to get him on second degree murder, but he died from the drugs? It wasn't murder.

So it's going to be oof. We'll see, yeah. Villa Music Dude says, Don't you think replacing the police with civil guard is kind of like Animal Farm? No chain of command? You replace those in power that are corrupt and then you eventually become the corrupt authority. Haven't we seen similarities like that in the Chaz?

Yes. I'm not saying there wouldn't be a chain of command. There would be, you know, like the civil guard would just be the menial labor that the police normally do. It's the same thing. They're trying to replace it with the same thing. No, I don't think, I disagree. The civil guard don't have guns. The civil guard have a ticket book. Well, we can create that anyway we can make we can create as part of the police department yeah uh you know uh community community response units or whatever i mean we lived in new york there's plenty of police officers that were just ticket officers they weren't armed they didn't have but they don't respond to things like a homeless person or like a drug issue the regular cops do, and the cops

are armed, and it escalates. I guess the challenge is you'd see a lot of dead civil guard. Probably. Because, you know, you might say like, what they're arguing is somebody needs mental health. The meme going around on the left is, but what if we get rid of the police? What do we replace it with? And it's like, how would you, oh, what's that? You're sick?

Do you need a social worker? You're hungry? Oh, do you need someone to bring you food and i'm like uh okay let's say you got a crazy homeless guy and he's like you know beavis pulls his shirt up and he's just going like he's walking around his hands up or whatever and then you say it's a crazy homeless guy so the civil guard shows up or the community response guy shows up and he says are you okay and the guy goes he pulls out a knife and goes, Yeah. They are crazy. It's not that simple.

Right. And that's why police are armed with weapons. Not because they want to kill people because sometimes people are crazy. Yep. I think everybody thinks they know the answer. That's a sad reality. They always think they know the answer. And they're not cops. Nobody knows all the answers. There's way too many of us. There's're not cops. Nobody knows all the answers. There's

way too many of us. There's billions of us. Reminds me of, in a recent segment on the Joe Rogan podcast, people were ragging on Joe because he's routinely talked about masks. He said something like, you know, he mocked the idea of wearing masks. And Bill Burr said, he's like, I'm not going to do this. I'm not going to sit here with no medical degree, listen to you with no medical degree, talk about whether we need masks or not. Look, I watch the news like once every two weeks. I turn it on. Are we doing masks?

We're doing masks. I'm going to wear a mask. Yeah. And Joe laughs about it. Yeah. And then everyone laughs about it. Okay. That was pretty good, Bill Burr.

I'm not going to do this right now. Not bad. I'm not going to sit here not being a cop, talk to you, who's also not a cop, about what it's like to be a cop. Exactly. Amen. Thank you, cop. Exactly. Amen. Thank you, Bill. Even though we literally just did two hours.

I mean, but that is exactly what we were saying, though. Yeah. Like, how can any of these people that are out crying for all this stuff know what it's like to be in a cop's shoes? They don't. So that's why I'm saying go be a cop then. Go get into your community and do something about it and watch how fast they do everything the exact same way they will understand at least they'll at least understand

well we should take some of these activists well the problem with that is these activists are ideologues and so then they're going to start selectively enforcing things like they want to. That's why it's like, maybe they shouldn't be cops. You know what I mean? I don't think that's the people I'm talking to. I don't think those are the people that will ever think so. Because those are the people that believe everything should just be done for them.

Do it. Do it. Why aren't you doing it the way I want it? I want to fight, but i don't want to do anything i want everything handed to me i want to complain those aren't the people that are going to be like you know what i think i can make a difference i think a lot of people become cops because i want to make a difference and then people who don't understand what it's like attack them for doing their job yeah it's really funny man when i hear these ridiculously stupid stories

one woman was like when i was 15 i stole a bunch of stuff from a mall and then i was running from the cops as they screamed and i got a slap on the wrist oh man i read that that tweet as stupid and i'm like this i looked her up this lady grew up in an ethnically homogenous moderately wealthy suburb oh so of course you know just north of new York City. And I'm like, stupid, right? You want to talk about the inner city and what cops do? Yeah, we have a conversation or deal. And there was a Alexis Ohanian gave an interview where he's the co-founder of Reddit, where he said when he was in college, a cop came up to him while he was drunk and high and, you know, checked on him and said he was drunk and then said something like, you're lucky those keys aren't in the ignition, buddy buddy go back to sleep or whatever and walked away

and he's like and that's because of my privilege blah blah it's like are you trying to compare the fact that you were sleeping your car keys out of the ignition and a cop was like yeah later to a guy who fought with the cops who was on probation and then stole their weapon and fight at him and ran who actually car was on right in the drive-thru so he drove there yep let me let me totally different situation let me tell you the middle ground story i was i worked a double shift one day when i worked for at o'hare airport i was driving home it's a 45 minute drive i get i was getting like three hours three hours of sleep per night working this company and it was miserable and so i start hallucinating i'm swerving so i pull off the I'm like, I'm going to go to sleep just for a little bit right

here so I can make it home because I had to wake up again in like four hours and go back to work. Unhealthy position. I wake up to a cop putting a ticket on my windshield and he slaps it on. And then I'm like, I roll the window down, old car. And I was like, excuse me. He's like, oh, hey. And I was like, is there a problem? Was I, am I doing something wrong? He's like, Oh yeah. Uh,

you, you, you're not supposed to be parked here right now. And I was like, I'm not, I'm sitting in my car. And he was like, yeah, if I knew you were there, I wouldn't give you the ticket. And I was like, I'm literally sitting in my car right now. Like it's running. And he was like, yeah, well, yeah. You know, have a nice day i'm like what i just threw in i never paid it i don't know what happened to it i was like what am i gonna do dude i was where i was making like 10 bucks an hour and i was working i that job was killing me man absolutely brutal uh svane says get your wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube man at the wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube man emporium in wikipog indeed thank you i couldn't do it yeah wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube man that was good

dude that was great it was nice i can talk really fast so that's not even a challenge for me you know show off it's not even a show off i just talk too fast ross says tim we are steadily heading toward the world of harrison bergeron bergeron bergeron a world of total equality yeah yeah you can call it equality but i'm not convinced that's what it really is. Cancel those participation trophies. Cancel them. Matt Ellie says, as a center-right conservative, I kind of feel like Tim isn't left enough for me to feel like you counterbalance my views

that much anymore. But I've never been far left. I've always been fairly moderate. He's known as the king of fence-sitting. But it's not even that. It's about what I talk about, right? True, yeah, yeah. Institutional racism, a that. It's about what I talk about, right? Institutional racism, a thing. Systemic racism, also a thing. There you go. I'm on the left. Like, I don't know what else to say. You know what I mean? Yeah. But the problem,

and I've explained this several times, is that the current iteration of what the left is, is uninterested in actually having a real conversation about these issues. And they want to attack people on tribal lines and ban art. And so here's what it really comes down to. When my friend posts on Instagram, this man was executed while sleeping in his car. I can't talk to them. I sent a message back. Here's the news story of what actually happened. And they completely ignore it. These people are zombies. Block. Block. So whatever happened in the 90s, we had moral authoritarians on the right with the christian conservatives and then it flipped to whatever the left is now there's zombie moral authoritarians taking everything over left and right doesn't mean anything

you know like what does it really mean i don't know remember when the liberals were for free speech now they're not okay i don't know man whatever yeah free speech is dying right in front of us yeah it's dying art is being banned and i was talking to my friend who was like super active in the black lives matter protests and i said i'm sorry i understand the things you're saying i agree with a lot of it but i will never stand side by side with someone who champions censorship of art and they said we're just trying to make the world a better place. And I said, that's exactly what everyone always says. They think their ideas are better and they have a right to suppress other people. And I disagree. That is authoritarianism. So I'll tell you what the divide is, at least for me. You may be a conservative. I may be

left libertarian, but we're libertarian. How many people said yes when I said we should legalize or we should we should release? It looked like 90, 98 percent. Yes. Do it. There's so many. Right. Do it. And how many people are like left on social issues? Well, no. Listen, my issue is like I think there's a ton of things that have happened throughout history that have created racial inequities and inequalities that we can solve. But I don't think you solve it by insulting people based on their race, attacking white people, or forcing them to do anything. And then we solve it by saying like, hey, would you like to get like, here's left libertarian. I show up to your house a little bucket and I'm like, hey, I want to I want to help out some kids

go to school. Would you want to pitch in? I don't. Have a nice day and thank you for your time. And I leave. Yeah, that's that's left left libertarian what the left is doing right now is to show up to your house with a gun and they say you're contributing to our fund now and they're like come and take it come and make me that's nah that's bad so i think if you look at whatever is going on right now the left is dominated by authoritarians who want to force you to do things and if you look at people like dave rubin who was you know he was a liberal now he's more libertarian Now the left is dominated by authoritarians who want to force you to do things. And if you look at people like Dave Rubin, who was, you know, he was a liberal. Now he's more libertarian, more libertarian, right?

I think you look at the politically homeless, the intellectual dark web. There are progressives in that bunch, but they're all very libertarian, respecting people's ideas, having intellectual conversation. And that's, that's what the difference between everybody is. Yep. Yeah. Talk to me about taxes. I'm pretty lefty, man. Matt Ellie says, oh, I read that one.

Here's a big quote. Crackpot or Crackbot just said, the left in a quote, when I am weaker than you, I ask for freedom because that is according to your principles. When I am stronger than you, I take away your freedom because that is according to my principles. But that's authoritarianism. Okay. Yeah. So like the way I explain it is, listen, man.

But that is the left right now. It is. Absolutely. Absolutely. The tribal left is that. So I think there's a few fair points to be made. People say Tim's a conservative. Absolutely not true.

Now, if you want to talk tribalism, I think it's fairly obvious that whatever the culture war factions are, I am not whatever the left is. They call it the right. It doesn't really make sense because right doesn't mean anything. You know these Boogaloo boys? Like this one guy who killed those cops in the van. They're charging him. The cop who killed the deputy. Right, right, right. He screamed Boogaloo stuff and they're calling him right wing in the press. Since when was killing cops right wing?

Since never. Anything. Right wing is blue lives matter. They're just trying to smear everything and anything. It's pretty insane. Left means good. Right wing is blue lives matter. They're just trying to smear everything and anything. It's pretty insane. Left means good. Right means bad to these people. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. So whatever these culture war factions are, I define my position as the liberty position.

Meaning when it comes to my view on. Freedom. On like taxes and social justice issues. I lean left on them. I'm nowhere near as far left as like Bernie Sanders on any of these things or AOC. But I think they're only accomplished by asking people if they would like to participate in my fun, you know, cooperative program. And when they say no, I say, well, I'll try my best to convince you, but you have a good day, sir. The left shows up

with a crowbar and smashes out your windows and says, do it or else. Yep. So whatever these factions are, man, I don't know. It's, it's, it's everyone, everyone thinks they have the dividing line. I've heard people say it's nationalist versus globalist. Not really. I'm not, I'm not, I'm not a hardcore nationalist. Love America though. But I'm not one of these people who's like show up our borders, lock everybody out. And I don't think most people are, but I don't find my, my identity wrapped up in American

nationalism at all. So, you know, when I take those civics tests, I'm like centrist on like everything for obvious reasons. So what do we got? We got a couple more. Logan F says, Hey, my dudes,
