Starting point is 00:00:00 Believe in the ripple fence. What? What's up? Another episode of Ripple Effect podcast. I'm your host, Ricardo Vendez, also known as Ricky Verandis. And we have another great episode for you today, a swap cast with two dear friends, Sam Tripoli from the Tinfoilet podcast, Rikovsky, from the Tinfoil Hat podcast. James Corbett from Corby Report dot com. Two guys that have been on the Tinfoil Hat Podcasts. James Corbett from Corby Report.com. Two guys have been on the show a bunch of times. They've also been a part of these roundtable discussion swap casts a bunch of time. So please go in the archives, check them out.
Starting point is 00:01:36 They're always a blast. We just, I just love getting all the different perspectives and opinions and just kind of doing this casual back and forth just sharing of ideas. Really, really fun discussion. It was only recorded a couple days ago but I feel like it's already, like I'm ready late to upload it because when we recorded it, the coronavirus thing was definitely the hot topic but now it's even crazier because all sports or at least many of the big sports have been shut down people are freaking out left and right all the social media sites are just they're just overwhelming debate about the coronavirus I'm not a huge fan of Dr. Drew but I agree with him on this point and I know some people are like oh well you disagree with him on this or that or whatever I'm like I do but just because I disagree with him on this point and I know some people are like, oh well, you disagree with
Starting point is 00:02:26 him on this or that or whatever. I'm like, I do. But just because I disagree with somebody on one topic doesn't mean they can't make sense or we can't agree on another topic. And if you look up his videos, I agree with him. Most people who are dying are old people, people with compromised immune systems. Take your probiotics, live
Starting point is 00:02:45 healthy, be healthy, and you should be all right. I haven't seen any of these professional athletes that are being tested positive for coronavirus dropping dead. And even if there is one or two cases of somebody who might be healthy in the age, range of age that we would consider peak health and not somebody who's really old or a newborn, then there might be exceptions to the rule. But in strokes, heart attacks, I mean that happens to people who are athletes and there's been cases of people who are healthy, who seem healthy and have a random heart attack
Starting point is 00:03:22 doesn't mean that we're all in danger of having heart attacks and strokes. So a exception to the rule, I don't think should be blown out of proportion. Plus we don't know all the details of if there is cases of people who seem healthy, aren't super old. We don't know if they had pre-existing conditions. We don't know if they had a weak and immune system because of some other issues that they had pre-existing conditions. We don't know if they had a weak and immune system because of some other issues that they might have. So I think that right now the media is getting people to watch non-stop.
Starting point is 00:03:54 If you talk about the coronavirus, you're watching. All those commercials that you're seeing, the pharmaceutical companies, I mean, they're all getting a part of this too, because, one, the media, is is is is is is is to to to to to to to the the the the the the the media, the media, the media, the media, the media, the media, the media, the media, the media, the media, the media, the media, the media, their, their, to be a their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, toe.eckeck.e. toe. toecke. toe. toe. toe. their their, their, their, their, their, their, their the farm sewer companies, I mean, they're all getting a part of this too, because, one, the media is being able to charge more for those commercial breaks, those, those, that ad time, because they're getting way more viewership. And two, the farm sewer companies, which the US just passed the bill, and I'm sure many of these countries and governments have, passed the bill that's just throwing money into farm school companies in regards to research and development and you know trying to come up with a treatment trying to figure this thing out so they're getting all this money to develop a vaccine or
Starting point is 00:04:38 a treatment or whatever it may be which usually comes out of the farm so company's thin. If they do come up at something the their their their their their the pharmacy company's pocket. And then, if they do come up with something, the government's going to throw them all this money to buy all this stuff before it's ever tested to be safe, or proven to be safe. So it's a win-win situation for the media, it's a win-win for Big Pharma. Like I said, I'm not seeing a lot of cases, if any at all, of people who have, of people, of people, of people, of people, of people, of people, of people, of people, of people, of people, of people, of people, of people, of people, of people who have been proven to be healthy and normal and no pre-existing conditions just dropping dead. When that happens, maybe, you know, I'm not mirrored any idea.
Starting point is 00:05:10 Maybe in a couple weeks I'll admit that I'm wrong and that maybe this is a bigger deal than I thought. But until then, just get some vitamin D, get some sun, get some fresh air, take you know exercise, take care of your body and hopefully if you do get the coronavirus or any type of flu symptoms, just like most people who get the flu around this time of year, you're sick for a couple weeks just like I think just about all these professional athletes I think or it's going to happen to them unless like I said they could have some pre-existing condition that you're not aware of but most of thi., if not all of them, they're going to be sick for a couple weeks,
Starting point is 00:05:50 have flu-like symptoms, and they're going to be fine. So everybody's freaking out about them, this person or that person being diagnosed with the coronavirus or are testing positive for it. But until the symptoms are anything more than just flu-like symptoms, who cares that they're tested positive for it? I just don't see what, well, I mean, obviously it's the media who's just scaring people and them just saying that, oh, this person has a coronavirus. It just gets people to watch.
Starting point is 00:06:20 It just adds to just people being freaked out. So that's my take on it. We briefly talk about it on the podcast. the podcast. the podcast. the podcast. the podcast. their their their their their their they they they they they they they they they they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they adds to just people being freaked out. So that's my take on it. We briefly talk about it on the podcast but I didn't get this in depth with it so I figured I want to give you my take now. To other news, great podcast by the way I really, really enjoyed talking to Sam and James. Hopefully we'll do more of these. It's been a while since we did the last one. Hopefully we do more of these in the near future. Also, I can't thank Jake Fires, who is a fan of the podcast, he is a fan of the podcast who has heard me talk about doing shirts for the podcast. He eventually hit me up and he's like, you know what, Rick, I'll give you a great deal,
Starting point is 00:06:59 I'll hook you up and I'll make these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these these shirts these shirts these shirts the shirts the shirts the shirts the make these shirts for you and and kind of force me to finally stop procrastinating and getting these shirts done so Jake fires give him a shout out he has a website poor press collective dot com also the other URL that will take you there is poor as fuck dot com that's P-O-O-R check out his website check out his work I'll have links in the show description to his website. Just want to give him a shout out and hopefully have these shirts soon and once once I do have them you'll see on my social media sites on Facebook, on Instagram, Twitter that's RV Theory 6 on Twitter. My personal Facebook page is Ricky Vrandas. Or you can look up the ripple effect podcast. You'll find the ripple effect podcast's
Starting point is 00:07:49 Facebook page. You can hit us up on there too. And just stay connected. That way once these shirts are out, I'll let you know how to buy them, how to purchase them and all that stuff. And you can see them. Thanks a lot. Jake Fires for poking me up and for getting me to finally get these t-shirts out. I mean I've been doing the show for six years. It's about time I have some merch and it'll help because that with the Patreon page, which is another way of supporting the show that will also be in the show description, a link to the Patreon page. That money helps me pay for the storage, for the bandwidth, all those little fees for the URL name, the ripple effect podcast.com, all those little fees that add up. And if I can just cover that stuff, I am happy for the time being. So thanks a lot, guys.
Starting point is 00:08:36 And what else? What else? A bunch of shows coming up. I don't know how to hell I'm going to do any shows that doesn't cover the coronavirus. I almost feel like fans are going to be pissed. That's all they want to talk about. But maybe that's not what they want to hear. Maybe it'll be a relief just watching or listening something that is different than the coronavirus, because it's just, I feel like it's just taking over our lives. But enough about the coronavirus. If any of you guys want to watch us have the conversation, because I forgot to mention this, on our YouTube channel, RV Theory 6,

Starting point is 00:11:13 Awesome. How old? They are one month and two days. Dude, that's a, you're going through the boot camp period right now where it's like... They're trained that's, you're going through the boot camp period right now, where it's like... Oh, God, dude. They're trained in the bath. It's funny because when I first had my son and you're surviving off like caffeine and no sleep,
Starting point is 00:11:34 I'm like, I remember telling my wife, I'm like, I feel like I've overslept my whole life because I'm like, I'm like, my whole life I keep thinking I need more sleep and I'm like I can actually even though you're not really surviving, you know feeling great You feel like crap all the time and you're tired, but you're making it work But yeah, it's I'm a twin actually so Yeah, yeah, how do we know which is like their two of you were talking to yeah, that's true. It's true. We didn't have they? Oh, the they. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. We're they. We're th. We're th. We're th. We're th. We're th. We're th. We're th. We're th.

It's very funny. Well, I hear my mother talk about how like it was stressful growing up because like one would stop crying and the other one would start crying and then. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:15 It was just like there's never, because at least when you have liketwo, it's like you better hope they're on the same schedule because if not, like I could just imagine how tough that is. You don't even want them on the same schedule. You actually want them about 30 minutes off from each other. You want them off just a little bit so that you could deal with one and then deal with the other, but they're actually at the same schedule. That is chaos. You have to pick which crying you care more about, like which one's a real cry, which one's an attention cry, and you know, you just talked through it.
Starting point is 00:12:51 You're like, yeah, I know you're mad. I know you, it's like, you're just going yourself down than everything, because, you know, you don't want to hear your kids crying. You're like, it's painful, you know, and it's just like, you're just like, you're just like, you're just like, you're just like, you're just like, you're just like, you're just just just just just, you're just, you're just, you're just, you're just, you're just, like, like, like, like, you're just, like, you're just, you're just, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, you're just, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, you're just, you're just, you're just, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're to, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, you're just, you're just, you're just, you're just, you're just, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, you're just just, like, you're just, you're just, like, like, like, you're crying, you're like, it's painful, you know, and it's just like, you're just talking yourself down not to just panic. You're really secret service. That's what you are for these kids. Your secret service and your whole job is keep the target alive till mom gets home. That's the whole, my whole job.
Starting point is 00:13:20 Well, it's just crazy because I remember leaving the hospital and I'm sure every parent had the same type of experience where you're leaving and you're like 24 hours ago. I was just a person and now I'm a parent and you're like I had no training I like I didn't read a manual like they just they're just gonna trust me that I'm gonna keep this thing alive that I'm responsible enough that I'm responsible for like? I'm not the thi. I'm th th th th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the th. the the the th. th. th. thi. th. their their their their th. th. th. th. 24 24 24 th. 24. 24. 24. 24. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. t. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. two. two. two. two. twe. twe. twe. twe. twe.'t feel different but all sudden I'm a parent like it was so weird and and you get that that a perspective of like I remember growing up and your my parents would always give me this they were always trying to convince me that like oh we're parents were adults we have it all figured out listen to us and once you become a parent you're like holy sc-you. like they're like th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th.

And, and, you know, it's just, I guess you try to give your kids the sense of security and that, like, you know, I mean, they, and it's weird. And it's like, do my kids look at me the way I looked gonna grow up and they're gonna think you're morons. You know, and like every moment.
Starting point is 00:14:26 Yeah, my kids are at the perfect age. They're just old enough to appreciate and they wanna be with Papa, but when they hit teens, I know. But I also think as dads, we don't get appreciated till much later. Like, right now it's all mom, mom's all love dad. We have come in like I'm not obviously their month and there's no disciplining it's just survival you know
Starting point is 00:14:50 love sending them all this love but you know as they get older dad is disciplined dad's all that stuff so he's more of the the meany guy right even though you love them and all that stuff but you don't appreciate dad to you get to the work but till they graduate they get they get they get they get the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the they. they. the. the. the. the. the. the. they. they. they. they. their. the. the. the meany guy, right? Even though you love them and all that stuff, but you don't appreciate dad till you get to the work, till they graduate, they get to the workforce, they're dealing with people, and then they realize, like, my dad had 19 jobs. Yeah. Like, man, how did you do it?
Starting point is 00:15:16 You're just like, yeah. Thank you. I appreciate you so much. I appreciate it th. I to. I to. I to. I to. I to. I to. I to. I to. I to. to.

And I'm just like, let's get on the same page here, you know. But it's very interesting, man.
Starting point is 00:15:54 It's very, and I'm very blessed and I loved it. And you know, for me, it's my career has always been like kind of a crazy thing. And I always said, I'm not going to have kids help, you know, I'm financially stable and I'm in a blessed, I'm blessed to be in a good place and bam, two twins dude out the gate. And here we are man, I love it. Yeah, there's going to be times where the kids are going to bring the partners together and there's going to be times where it's going to be the times, the times, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, and, and, and the, and the, and the, the, and the-I, and the-I, and the-I, and the-I, and two, and the, and, and, and, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, b, b, b, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, thea, the, the, the, the, tw. tw times, you know, where it's really going to test you guys. Because I mean, when you're working on little sleep, when you're working on, and a lot of times it's coming, like you both, one thing I always try to remember, it's like, even when we disagree, like, our purpose, we both have the same purpose, we want what's best for the kids, and we just might have a different, you know, a opinion, a opinion, a, a, a, a, a, a, thi, thin, thi, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, the, one, one, the, the.. the. period.

Yeah. much like the most paranoid of conspiracy theorists right like everything might lead to tragedy and they're like they're over like protective which is great because that's what me and then dads have always been kind of like yeah let's see how it works out you know that's kind of how the role like mom's help the study show moms help kids get the task done where dad's like get the kids do it well this is kind of beginning yang of it all th th th th th th th th th th this is th this is th th th th this is th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th tho tho tho thi thi thi thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. the the th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. thi. thi thi thi the is theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. they're they're they're where dad's like get the kid do it. Well this is you could do it. That's kind of beginning yang of it all.
Starting point is 00:17:46 This is a very important point because it's no different than like starting a business with somebody where like I suck a number, well I don't suck, I hate numbers. So like I would be the marketing person or the networking person a company and I would get somebody where they're good at what I suck at. And it'd make a great business relationship. Same thing with like your partner, like women are naturally better at things than guys are, and there's no, no shame in that. Like now we live in a world where it's just like one gender, everybody's good at everything and everybody should, you know, it's like, but to me it's like, it's like, there's like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, th, like, like, th, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, th. th. great at these skills and we suck at those
Starting point is 00:18:25 skills and we're good at other skills. There's nothing wrong with that and we've survived thousands and thousands of years because we make a good team because they bring things that help us survive and we bring things to help us survive. I think that's really important. I think men's roles have changed a little bit. Like a lot of fathers my age or a little older, a little younger, they were much more hands-on. Like my father, like, he never said I love you. He never hugged me. His role was he came home, he'd leave him, he'd leave him because he's too tired from working, you know, too many hours. And that was it, you know, and I've, you know, I joke the wife. I'm like th. I've th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th th th th th. He th. He th. He th. He th. He th. He th. He th. He th. He th. He th. He th. He th. He th. He th. He th. He th. He th. He th. He th. He th. He th. He th. He th. He the the. He's thee. theeeeee. theeeeeeeeeeeeeee. thee. thee. thee. the. the. hours of being alive that I loved them than I heard my whole life. It didn't mean I don't mean that
Starting point is 00:19:06 my father didn't love me I'm sure he did but it just he, and I have to remind myself Mike and I'm sure he learned a parent from his parents my grandparents like they were also that was what what happened you all the nurturing and loving time too, because that's when you had stay-at-home moms and you could, you know, the state wasn't raising your kids or the, you know, the, basically daycare and public schools weren't raising your kids. People were actually hands-on, which is super important. I think that's a huge issue, you know, and when you become a parent, you realize that. If you're not a home, like, if you're not at home, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the fucking time, who's influencing your kids? It's not you, you know, like, who's, who's, like your kids, a sponge and so many things they're taking in that you have like, no, I mean, there's times that my kids say stuff
Starting point is 00:19:53 and I'm like, wait, you heard that, or you know, and's just it's one of those things where like they're at that age we're like they surprise you with how much they're and how much they're processing and understanding and so it's like and if they're not getting stuff that information from me or then who are they getting it from so like I tell people I'm like I suck at the not important jobs like and I'm like andry to be really good at the most important job, and that's being a dad. Like me, to me, like that relationship with my kids,
Starting point is 00:20:29 I mean, you're molding little humans. And it's like, you know, coming home, like everything from my diet to exercise, to everything is gonna help me become a better parent because I'm gonna have higher tolerance, you know, because I took, you know, I got some energy out of my system. I'm eating well, you know, so I'm thinking normal and I'm cognitively there. So all these things. And the other thing too is like, so, you know,
Starting point is 00:20:54 we're all into alternative media and alternative perspective, and thin outside the box. The other thing too is like, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, th., thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th..... thin, thi, th. th. th. th. I'm, so, so, so, th. I, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, th... I, th. I, th. I, th. I, th. I, th. I, th. I, th. th. th. thi. thi. thin, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. I'm, thi. I'm, th. I'm, thi. I'm, thi. I'm, th. I'm, th. I'm, for example, the vaccine conversation, which is, you know, before you have kids, right? It's really easy to tell people like, vaccines are bad and this and that, right? But once you have kids, will you practice what you preach? Like, I'm telling people that they're bad, but once I have kids, do I have the balls? Do I have, do I actually believe what I'm telling people or the conversations that people are hearing me have on this show. And to me I do and I'm always curious. I'm like I wonder people who are saying these things or are they talk about how bad GMOs are? Like are they actually like taking like... I just watched a great film. I was like I was getting
Starting point is 00:21:37 mad of my wife but I'm like, what are you doing? I'm like she found like the nonstick pans from a while ago and the other th I th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thin thin thin thin they they they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they's they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're t. t. I te. I tole. tole. I tole. I talked. I'm like like like like like like like like like I'm like oh babe don't use those I'm like I'm like there's C8 in that and I'm like it's like it's like you know she's like oh why do we still have them like you're right we should let's throw them out or whatever and she didn't know why I was freakingont and M3 had all this research for years Knowing that this I forgot the the chemical was called but C8 was another term for it that that they were using for nonstick pans and tons of other stuff Was causing tons of health issues and and and and they hid this from the public and And because it's a multi billion dollar industry and you know initially I believe it was they were using it for tanks for water resistance and like well we can use this for pans and we use this for these and that product or whatever
Starting point is 00:22:29 and and and then she watched a document or the film it was the actual film and it's funny how like films based on real events don't seem to to get the attention that they deserve like kill the messenger and all the stuff. It's like, isn't that more intriguing? Like you could watch a Denzel movie that's complete, you know, nonsense, or you can watch them that's actually based on true events and at least learn something possibly. And, but yeah, I mean, and then she's like, wow, that's crazy. I'm like, yeah, I'm like, it's, it's nuts. So stuff like that, you become much more conscious of that. And another other that. And another that. And another that. And another that. And another that. And another that. And other that. And other that. And that. that. that. that. that. that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the. thrue. the. that's actually that's actually that's actually that's actually that's actually that's that's that's I've talked to a lot of people in the anti-gMO world, anti-vacine, well, I wouldn't say anti-vaccine because sometimes that's the wrong term. It's more about like just the choice, having the right to choose. People in that world, a lot of them are mothers, a lot of them are moms who are super motivated and about like, you know, having the right to choose and their kids their kids, their their their their their their to to be to be to be safe, to be to be to be to be to be safe, to be safe, to be to be safe, to be safe, to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be to be toeatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheatheat, having the right to choose and their kids being safe.
Starting point is 00:23:25 So that nurtured gene in them is a great gene to, because they want to protect their loved ones so much that it's a motivator for them to be the ones, you know, and the front lines, you know, being outspoken and stuff. Maybe we should let James talk. I feel like I feel like I've been ranting on forever. I don't even know where to pick up on that but yeah good points raised all around and let me just say I I remember back in when I first had kids and the thought struck me oh this is what life's about. Like what have I been doing my whole life this is completely different now and now now that I think back I try to think back before he had kids I'm like what did me and my wife even do before this? Yeah I'm right right. this. this. I this. I this. I this. I this is this is this is this is this is this is this is this is this is this is th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th. th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th. I thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi to to to to to thi to to to to to to thi to thi to thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi that I think back, I try to think back before he had kids, I'm like, what did me and my wife even do before this? The biggest decision was what to eat for dinner kind of thing. Well, it's never a dull moment. And so many things that you kind of like lost a passion for, or you stop enjoying, like become enjoyable and holidays and you know, just Christmas and stuff like that, tho. they's th, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, th, th, thi, thi, thi, their their, their their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, their. And, their. And, their. And, their. And, their. And, their. And, their. And, their. And, their. And, their. And, their. And, their. And, you. And, you. And, like that. I mean, obviously that, you know, marketing and a lot of stuff is, you know, there's some
Starting point is 00:24:26 evil side of some of these holidays. You know, we're just trying to get people to just care more about buying stuff than actually spending time together. But, you know, just seeing the kids enjoy, like, their tree and like, thrown. their thiii. thi. thi. thi. thin. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thin. thin. thin. thin. their, thi. their is just just just just just, thi. their, their is, you're just just just just just just, you are just, you their, you their, you their, you their, you. their, you their, you their, you their, you their, you is is, you is, their, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thin. thin. thin. thin. thr. thr. thr. thr. thr. thr. thr. toda. today, you know, try. trying, theeea. thr. thr. theea. their, you know, their. theirthe family together. That's all like so, so important. And so yeah, I mean, it's definitely one of those things. And you know, Sam and I are very similar. I've heard you talk about this on your show. And I don't know if James, if you went through like a similar type
Starting point is 00:24:54 of internal dilemma, where like I was raised Catholic, being Portuguese, you know, taught to be religious and don't question it. And that naturally made me want to rebel. Because eventually I'm like, I'm asking questions. Nobody wants to answer these questions. Just like, you know, just believe in it. And you know, even though there's not answers, you know, just believe in it and whatnot. And I didn't like, and naturally I'm like, I'm being lied to. And I went from like, the whole other side, the whole other side. And, and, and, to. And, to. to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, to, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, to, the, to, to, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, they. And, they. And, they. And, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the other where I went from the whole other side where I'm like anti-religious. You know, I was, I remember I was like, you know, a huge Richard Dawkins fans and Christopher Hitchins and all the atheists. I'm like, oh, you know, I'm like, yeah, they haven't figured out this is all BS and then little by little as as I got older and especially when I had kids, I'm like, you know what, I'm like, if like, if like, if I, if I, if I, if I, if I, if I, if I, if I, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, if, I, like, like, like, like, like, like, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th. th. th. th. th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. th. the. th. th. the. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. team to join another team and they're equally as extreme and and I didn't realize that like wow, like there are some like they're saying that all religion is awful. But to me like one thing that I started
Starting point is 00:25:53 especially as like you know you look at philosophy like the reason why I love philosophy is like it makes it gives you a reason or makes you think about things outside the material world like bigger bigger issues and it's like what's life really about. th th, like th, like th, like th th th th, like th th th th th th th, like th th, like the th, like the th, like th, like the th, like thi thi the thi thi thi the thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the the the the the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their thi, their thi. thi. thi. thi. theeeeeeeateeateeeateeeate. theeeeate. theeeeeate. theeeee. they're they're they're they're they're things outside the material world, like bigger, bigger issues. And it's like, what's life really about? Like, all the questions that are never answered and we can debate and have these conversations, but it takes you out of that cycle of like just going to work, taking out to trash, all the stuff. And it's like we never stopped and think about know as I got older and especially when I had kids like and like you said you almost feel like okay now I have a purpose like now I have a true purpose and it makes you rethin these bigger
Starting point is 00:26:32 questions like oh this is what life's about like it's you know it's about loving one another it's about caring well you know and nothing like it doesn't like kids don't you know it's like that old saying like you know you're not born races you're taught racism you know like you look at kids like they play with each other they don't care about you know if you're Asian or if you're you're you know what religion you are or what part of the world you are like they all hang out they play none of that matters and it's like it's the evil of the adults that end up like the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th th th th th th th th th th th the the the the. th th th th th. th. th. th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th is is is is is is th th th th th th th th the the the the the is the the is. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the adults that end up like slowly pollute. And I think that's why I love kids. It's passed on from generation to generation to generation, which is done purposefully to create identity politics.
Starting point is 00:27:14 You know, we just had a big episode. I had Adam Green on and we, you know, Adam Green is very passionate about Jewish supremacy. And I'm more about its power, it's you know it's power structures and of every group there's just whack-a-doodles at the top and they make the bottom pay the price for it and you know it but but if you kind of look at what happens is you have this Holocaust and we can you know that another discussion on what what really went on here but you
Starting point is 00:27:43 you have you have generations telling the next generation about this horrible thing that happened to them and how everybody hates them because this, this, and this, and this and that. And there was this great tragedy done. And it just, the cycle just continues. So, and then they end up defending all of their group, regardless of whether if they know them or not. I think that's the real SIOF that is done. It's like this notion, whatever group it is, whether it's Jews, Muslims, Christians, whatever, it's like there are extremists of all groups, you know, and they all commit these horrible crimes, and then they make the bottom middle and the bottom bottom pay the price
Starting point is 00:28:25 for it. And you know, the difference I think between Jews and everybody else is just their whack jobs have better day jobs, okay? They're, you know, they have better 401ks and health program and all that and then positions of power because that's what they kind of work on. So I think that's just, it's like, I remember being a kid, and my next door neighbor, he's a, I'm half Italian, he's like, if anyone calls you WOP, okay, you fight them. And I go, why?
Starting point is 00:28:53 And he goes, I don't know, but that's what we do. And I thought that was the craziest thing ever. And it really is just this constant passing down of this baggage that, you know, and my, you know, the blessings of my life is that I was able to see that I was turning into my father and I love my father's, he's not bad man, but he was flawed like any superhero, right? Flawed man. And I saw those flaws starting to come into me where that, this notion that other people are thin tho the. th......... And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi's, thi. thi. thi's, thi. thi, thi, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, I, they, I, they, thi. And, thi. And, thi. And, thi. And, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th th th th th th th th th th th th th th thiiii's, they's, they's, they's, they. they. they. me where this notion that other people are thinking about me all the time and other people are so jealous about how great I was and through recovery and all that stuff I was able to learn that nobody's caring about me, right? But when I had to talk, my dad, he talked about how his father did that to him and it
Starting point is 00:29:38 was just kind of passing down of this sickness. And you know, I just found this article today or the other day about how you know Net and Yahoo went to Qatar and begged for more funding for Hamas and it's like oh more controlled opposition it's just like when you really sit down you got to go is there really terrorism? I mean is there really or like is it just this group of people getting us all the fight with each other so they can make money and bring pain and suffering to the world? And then regardless of what your religion is, regardless of what your sect denomination, sexuality is, it's just like you just want to live, laugh, and love.
Starting point is 00:30:14 And it's just like we have this group of people just fighting with us right now. We got this coronavirus and everyone's going nuts over it. And it's just like yet another thing brought you by the Russian collusion people, the Ukrainian people, the weapons and mass destruction people, the you know, the anthrax scare people. It's all the same people, always and always and always. And you know, I just kind of want to stop that. I don't know man. That's kind of what kids have done to me. It's kind of try to take a little more spiritual look at everything. And their. And their. And their. And their. And, their. And, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, the their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their,'m out, that's kind of what kids have done to me is kind of try to take a little more spiritual look at everything. And it's kind of changed my view in even a short month. It'll only get more deep from here, but yeah, I hear you.
Starting point is 00:30:54 And you know, fundamentally, this is what I keep coming back to. We're fighting against an ideology. And yeah, there are adherence to that ideology in every race, in every sex, and every gender of every sexual persuasion of every type. It's not about the identity politics in the end. It's about the ideology. And someone who is propounding that ideology is wrong, and someone who is wrong. And that's what my fight is really about, because that ideology is wrong. that, thrown really about. So I keep bringing you back to that, but it's so easy to get caught in the identity politics side of it because
Starting point is 00:31:29 that's, I mean, that's the new form of entertainment. The only problem is that that's such a self-perpetuating cycle because of course, you get the snowflakes on you're either with us or you're with them. And once it gets to that point, divide and conquer is complete. You've completely part of the population, got them fighting with each other, mission accomplished for the people who are at the top of that system. Well I think the origins of your beliefs are really important to to to to to to times we believe in stuff and we think that we were these non-emotional cre- or we like to think they're all logical. Well even though we know we're emotional creatures, I'm logical enough where I've made this decision or I've picked this team because it makes the most sense and we never go
Starting point is 00:32:21 back or I think not often enough we go back and think, retrace our steps and figure out, like, okay, how did I get here? Like, was there a parent that was Republican and told me when I was a kid that Democrats are the worst, or is my parents, Democrats and told me Republicans are the worst? And then I just picked this team and I defended it till the end of time. It's no different than like thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi, you thi, you're thi, you're thi, you're thi, you're thi, you're thi, you're thi, you're thi, thi, thi, thi, you're thi, you thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. theeei. thei. thei. thei. thei. thei. thei. thea. the. the. end of time. It's no different than like why somebody likes a sports team. I mean, sometimes I'll meet somebody and you're like, oh, how'd you become a Rams fan? And they're like, oh, my dad was a Rams fan. I'm like, oh, okay, you know, and we just look at sports like that,
Starting point is 00:32:52 but like that happens with everything. And when you have kids, like that's something like I'm, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, how do I teach them things without worrying about pushing them into direction that I'm at? Like how do I keep their minds open to be like, well, you know, you get what I'm saying? Because it's always where the rubber meets the road, because what you are teaching them is really what you are modeling. It's not even about what you say to them or what you tell them, it is about the way that you are demonstrating how to act in the world and you're doing that all the time, which is why it's such an incredible
Starting point is 00:33:29 responsibility. Not to put too much pressure on you there, Sam, but this is the point that you know it keeps coming back to. It's like I am modeling how to live a life and how to to be in the world and they they they they they they they they they they are they are they are they are they are they are they are they are they are they are the world and they are seeing th. And th. And thi thi thi thi. And thi thi thi thi. And thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi. thi. thi. thi thi. thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi th is th is th is th is thi thi. thi thi. thi. thi. the thi. the thi. the thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi is thi is thi is thi is thi is thi is to to to thi to thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi. that and they're seeing it much more clearly than we give children credit for it because you're exactly right, Ricky, when you were talking about your kid being very perceptive. My, I remember my son was two, I think he was two years old, maybe just about three years old, and he was already picking up on things between me and my wife like when we were arguing about no you should take a right here, no, well it's quicker if we go the other way. He's like, okay, why don't we try it this way, this time, and next time we'll go the other way. And he was just, he was this incredible font of reason in these stupid, petty arguments that you get into in your day-to-day life and you're like, oh, these kids really do see and see and see and see and see and see and see and tho, and tho, and tho, and tho, and tho, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, tho, tho, thee, thee, thee, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th............. th, th, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the, the, the. the. the. thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, thean, the. Andthe way that we live, the way that we model what we're doing. And I am particularly blessed because I grew up in incredibly loving household, two very
Starting point is 00:34:30 loving parents who were incredibly supportive, and I had two older brothers who fought all the fights with the parents, you know, I want to listen to my heavy middle music or whatever. By the time they got to me, you know, they weren't going to fight those fights. They just know, they'll just let me live my life and, you know, they'll they'll tell me what they think, but they're not going to tell me how to live. And I think I turned out pretty all right. And that's something that I have to keep going back to, like, thatelling them how to live, you're showing them. I got a question for you guys. Back to the vaccinations, my, you know, the mother of the child has been very, she, you know, she is a believer in vaccine. She's all that's up. I've been blessed to get her to hold off on doing it over time. Now, are you guys completely anti-any vaccines? Are you into trick-a-dating just a little bit over time so that their little immune systems can handle that and not just,
Starting point is 00:35:33 I mean like someone please explain to me why a newborn, a baby, like we're talking hours old needs to get hit with a STD shot. It's about hepatitis B shot. Someone explained to me the logic of that why if the mother doesn't have it, why do we have to worry about, is there a bunch of hepatitis B nurses going around with open rules? What are we worried about right here and the logic of that? And the truth of the matter is, if you really want to know what's going on with vaccines,
Starting point is 00:36:07 the health care system in America, and I now have health care, I'm blessed, I'm able to get for me and the Bay's mama and dust the kids. And I'm very thankful for it. It's not as evil as I thought it was. There are some evil parts evil parts evil parts evil parts evil parts evil parts the evil parts the evil parts tha evil parts tha parts tha evil parts to it, but everything comes with a price tag, right? Everything except for vaccines. There's a sign where I was at like, hey, if you can't afford vaccines, don't worry about, we'll give it to you for free. Right there should let you know, something's up. Why is one of the greediest, greediest industries out there,
Starting point is 00:36:40 wanting to give you something for free? It just doesn't seem right. And I'm not saying you shouldn't do it. I say you should look into it. And I'm doubt with trick-a-dating it a little bit over time. I'd love to hear you guys' thoughts on that. Yeah, I'm on board with you. I'm not anti-vaccine in and of itself, but the way and the schedule that it's done on obviously makes a huge difference and the types of vaccines that are being given. Again, I'm particularly blessed to be in Japan actually there was a great article that was from children's
Starting point is 00:37:11 health defense that was just reposted up on global research recently. Japan leads the way in child health, no compulsory vaccines, banned measles, mumps rebella vaccine, which goes into the recommended vaccine schedule for children in Japan. No the the the the the vaccine the vaccine the vaccine the vaccine the vaccine the vaccine the vaccine the vaccine vaccine. the vaccine vaccine vaccine. their vaccine. their vaccine. their vaccine vaccine. their vaccine. their vaccine. their vaccine. their vaccine. their their the recommended vaccine schedule for children in Japan. No vaccine mandates just recommended vaccines. They don't vaccinate against Hepbee unless the mother has Hepb. Do not vaccinate pregnant mothers with TDAP. Do not give flu shots to pregnant mothers or to six-month-old infants. Does not give the MMR vaccine, does not require HPV vaccine. So the Japanese vaccine schedule is orders of magnitude lighter than the US one, which is why it's yeah it's much easier to exist in this system.
Starting point is 00:37:51 For people who are fighting that fight in the US, I definitely have sympathies for it because it's a much harder fight as I'm sure Ricky, you probably know by now. Yeah, yeah, I definitely had some ups and downs. I mean we've changed pediatricians because the code word the dog whistle of when you're anti-vaccinating your kids is always like oh we're holding off and that was like the like they knew that what was going on we'd say we're holding off every time we go in there and but they had always treat you slightly you slightly different like you're a little crazy th and th and th and th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi their their thi. I their their they're their their their their their their their. I their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their. their. their. I I I I I I's. I's. I's. I's. I's. I'm thi. I'm thi. I'm the. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm th. I'm. I'm. I'm. I'm their. their their their their up and then you know I would get in debates with the pediatrician and I'm like listen I really don't want to have this conversation right now I'm like I don't want to get in a argument with you from the kid
Starting point is 00:38:32 while they're here waiting and they're here waiting and it just got to the point where I'm just like, you know, you know what my wife wouldn't their wi's w w w w w w w w w w w w wi.. th. th. th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th their wi. thi. the the the the the the. theat. I'm theat. I wouldn't theat. I'm th make me feel. They always make me feel like I'm a bad parent. I'm like, you know what? I'm like, I'll get out of work early. I'm like, I will go there. I'm like, if they want to battle me, I'm like, I'll go tell you, like, don't bring your kid around anybody, don't make sure you wash your hands or, you know, when you touch a newborn, but yet it's completely okay to shoot a, you know, a vaccine directly in their bloodstream. So you're admitting their immune system is delicate.
Starting point is 00:39:17 It's, it's, you know, and not just that. Like, I had thethe pediatrician, I'm like, she's like, oh, vaccines have never harmed anybody. I'm like, which was ridiculous, you know, which is ridiculous. A long, but I'm like, you do realize how unscientific that is. I'm like, that's like me saying peanuts have never harmed anybody. I'm like, peanuts don't kill everybody. no one will have a a a a some inflammation a rash possibly like that's the most unscientific thing you could possibly say like not everybody is the same and nobody's testing these children to know if they'll be sensitive to any of the chemicals of the viruses or maybe they have compromise immune systems so it's just like hey we're just gonna shoot them up and most kids are okay so I think your kids gonna be okay and it's like. they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they're. they're. they're. they're. they're. they're. they're. they're. they're. they're. they're. they're. they're. th. they're. they're. they're. the their. I I the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I's. I's. I'm. I'm. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. to. te. te. te. te. the. thi. the. thi. thi. the. thi. thi. like, hey we're just going to shoot them up and most kids are okay. So I think your kids are okay and it's like no no no I don't want to take that risk you know it's like to me maybe there is a risk of
Starting point is 00:40:12 my kid being on vaccine but you know what? Like the best defense to or even if you believe vaccines work you're still admitting that the best defense is their the immune system because what you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you you th you th you th you th you the to th you're to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to their their to to to to to to to to to to their to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to their to their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their So to me, like, why aren't you being, I guess, proactive with the parents and saying, hey, make sure kids take probiotics, make sure they take, you know, vitamins, make sure they eat healthy, make sure, yeah, the kid that has, you know, that's eating, you know, French fries and fried chicken every day, like, yeah, and he might, he might have, yeah, he might have, you know, a weak immune system. So, you know, but it's like, to me, it's like there's so many other things that they, they, they don't talk to you about. Like, you're saying that my kid.
Starting point is 00:40:53 Nobody has information. To be honest, Riola, nobody has information. And the these people, at the end of the day, people are trustworthy. They're nice people and they want to believe that these, these doctors and these health officials and experts mean well. But at the end of the day, they want checks, they want to make money, they want to prestigious jobs, and a lot of that only comes if you play ball.
Starting point is 00:41:25 And you know what, a lot of them have been lied to. A lot of them go to these schools and they get told these theories that don't make sense. Like most of them would know that there's no clinical testing on vaccines. If you ask people, how long is the clinical test for a vaccine? I don't know a couple years? No, there's none. There's none. And then there's no loss, you can't sue them. So why would they test it? It makes no sense.
Starting point is 00:41:53 Well, the liability is completely, yeah, off the pharmaceutical companies. There's a vaccine court, which taxpayers end up basically taking the bill and that's the the the the thaaaaa, tha, tha, tha, tha, thank, thank, thank, thank, thank, thank, thanks, thanks, thanks, thanks, thanks, thate, that, that, that, and that, and thanks, that, and that, and that, and that, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and thi, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and then, and that, and that, and that, and that, and that, and that, and that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, that, and that, and that, and that, and they.. And, and that,the thing. So you take liability from them and like you said when they're giving them out for free, I mean look at the coronavirus, they just Trump just I think signed a bill Friday. Like some of the money, like who knows how many millions and billions or and where they're going, where all this money's going, but it's for some coronavirus bill or whatever and some money is going to farm swerve to a vaccine. the pharmacy. the pharmacy. their f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f f. And their. And their. And their. And their. And their. And their. And so. And so. And so. tha, tha, tha, tha, and they're tha, tr-I's, tr-I's, tr-I's, tr-I's, tr-I's, they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're, they're, they's, they's, they's, they's, they's, they's, they's, they's, they's, they's, t. t. t. tha, thae. thae. thaui. tru. true. true. true. true. true. true. true. true. true. true. true. truu. I's tru. I's truthe pharmaceutical companies to to develop a vaccine and all this it's like so even if you develop a vaccine and everybody's hysterical so they would just be like yes give me at first I'll get I'll be first in
Starting point is 00:42:32 line you know there's no testing for it like you know and that's a thing like you can look up stories and stories of pharmaceutical companies doing you know just getting fined you know, just getting fined, you know, just doing unethical stuff. But I don't understand like where the logic is that they took all the moral people who work for the company and said, hey, you're going to work on our vaccine division. Like it's just like, it's madness. It's like, it's at the end of the day, like, like you said, there hasn't been testing and really how would you test safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety safety. And the safety, the safety, the safety, the safety, their, their, their, their, their, their, th. I, th. I, th.'s not, there hasn't been testing and really how would you test, you know, safety or whatnot. I mean, you would have to like, I don't know, like expose kids the viruses, you know, after giving the vaccine. We don't even know if they work. That's the other thing.
Starting point is 00:43:12 Like, how do you do? The only way to know if they worked is that you give Dell Big Tree, he's been on the show and the Vax documentary, I thought it was a great documentary because it wasn't an anti-Vax documentary. It was just like, here's some information, here's a story that's been suppressed, and and you know, come up with your own conclusion. And I think that's super, to me, it's a huge issue because even there's a group called the CT Freedom Alliance in Connecticut and which I live pretty close to the border of Connecticut in Massachusetts and they contacted me and hopefully I have monsoon and they've been fighting, they just got rid of all religious exemptions for vaccines and that's how my kids didn't get vaccinated and went to school because I apparently I'm
Starting point is 00:44:05 religious. And so my, you know, I love religion. So but like the fact that like now it's like, if that's gone, you don't even have a choice. Like my, you know, my wife and I were a little worried that like, okay, everybody's going to know where the, where the family with the unvaccinated kids and we're going to, I'm like, but I'm like, I told my wife, I'm like, listen, in a matter of time, they're going to realize like when all the other kids are sick all the time and our kids not sick, he's not the one you've got to worry about. And, and, and that's what, you know, after a while it's like, you know, we didn't worry, th. th. the, the, the, the, the, the, th.. the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, to, the, the, to, to, to, to, to, I'm, I'm, their, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, they, they're, they're, they're, they're, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, and, and, the, and, and, the, the, to. And, to. And, to. And, to. And, to. And, to. And, to. And, to. And, to. And, to. And, to. to. bit's also being proactive and caring about what they eat and exercising, getting sun, you know, vitamin D and all that stuff and living a healthy
Starting point is 00:44:51 lifestyle and not bring them the McDonald's and whatever, you know, which is obviously harmful to their bodies. And our kids are healthy and usually much less sick than anybody else's kids. So it just it's worked out. I'm like, you know what, they're a perfect example that we're not crazy. And, and, you know, but the thing is, when you go to a doctor or a pediatrician, they will scare the shit out of your girlfriend, Sam. And she's gonna, even if she, my wife was all on board. I did podcast with a couple of people and I was like sending her articles and
Starting point is 00:45:26 research and all this stuff. My wife was all on board but after a couple visits with a pediatrician and them just scaremongering and just you know like all sucoats. She's like, I'm having second thoughts. I'm having second thoughts. And then family members like, wait, you're not vaccinated. You're like, you know, did you see the news. Did you. thi. the the the the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the th. th. th. the the thi. thi. the th. the the th. the the the th. the th. thi. th. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thee. the. the. the. the. the. thi. the. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. you see this, you know, the Disney outbreak of measles? It's like you did realize like most of those kids were vaccinated, right? And it's, you know, so it's like... Nobody pays tension those details. Yeah. Ever. And the group mentality of like the herd vaccinate doesn't even make sense. We all have computers and we all virus protection. Why do we got to worry about our computers getting a virus? It got it. It makes zero sense and it's all fear-based. It's all fear-based and it's about like, you know, I had Dr. Shivan and he was talking about how it's like these people
Starting point is 00:46:16 who have like immune system deficiency, it's all about them. That's the great boogie man that this like one in 2,000, 3,000 people, which ends up being like 200,000 people in the entire country of the United States. And we're vaccinating millions and millions of people to protect these 200,000. And we're doing more harm to these bigger herd of people that to protect this little hurt. It makes literally no sense. Yeah, I mean I just had, here's another example of how modern medicine doesn't always work. I just had Jim Abrams on who was actually one of the filmmakers of some of my favorite films back in the day. I don't know if you guys remember naked gun and airplane and I mean some of my favorite movies grew up.
Starting point is 00:47:05 We're old white guys. Of course we have those two. And so he was on and I don't know if you're familiar with this story but he had a son who had like super violent seizures. I mean up to 100 seizures a day. I think he was like 12 months when they really started getting bad. 12 months and and like so years of I mean it was a it was his son Charlie he was a one of three the youngest one and I mean just stressed that it put on the family because think about how much attention this kid requires think about like the stress it puts on the family you know just it's it's wild
Starting point is 00:47:39 and as a parent like when you hear these stories it really hits home and so just because you know you're putting yourself in their situation I'm like I couldn't even imagine you know so you know he's quite famous he had money so he got the cut in line of all he went to see all the best doctors went to all the best hospitals he knew people who gave money to hospital so he didn't have to you know doctors that you have to wait months or to the to the. to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their. the the their the their, he got the cut in line. Everybody's just doing prescription drugs, surgeries, all this stuff. And like his kid was a zombie, they did surgery, surgery, which he's like was just completely useless, didn't do anything, right? So he's actually, eventually, I mean, this happened for years, eventually he's doing
Starting point is 00:48:20 a research on actually he was researching how parents deal or how families deal with like a child that requires that much attention and stuff like that. And then he runs into how John Hopkins actually in the 70s was having incredible success with the ketogenic diet, you know, because your brain, because one of the issues is like sometimes your brain can't use glucose as energy source. So if you get them on a ketone diet, it can use ketones. And nobody told them this. So it th th th this, like a this, th th th th th th th th th th th th th th thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi their thi thi thi thi thi, like a thi. A thi. A thi. A thi. A thi. A thi. A thi. A thi, a thi, a thi, like a child child a child a child a child a child a child a child a child child a child child child a child a child a child a child a child a child a child a child a child a child a thi. A thi. A thi. A thi. A thi. A thi. A thi. A thi. A thi. A thi. A thi thi. A thi. thi. teee. tei. tei. tei. teoi. thi. thi. that's thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. an energy source. So if you get them on a ketogenic diet, it can use ketones. And nobody told them this. So it was like this Eureka thing where he's just like, wait, wait, how come nobody has even brought this up as a possible option?
Starting point is 00:48:53 Like, they're willing to give my kid prescription drugs. They're willing to give him surgery, but they're not even brought up that there's a dietary therapy that might work like I have nothing to lose. So he even goes to his... You can make money off it, that's why. He goes to his doctors, right? And they tell him basically not to do it and like, oh yeah, it's whatever. And so eventually he ends up giving it a try, right? He gives it a try in three days. Years of his kids. Charlie's cured of seizures. Never had a seizure again, right? So he went from being super happy, right? Because he was super happy.
Starting point is 00:49:27 He's like my kids, like this is crazy. We got Charlie back to being angry dad because he's like, the permanent damage that my son might have because of all these fiulents seizures. The years of like, you know, just the stress and put on the family, you know, all this stuff. We can't, we couldn't have a normal, you know, life and he couldn't grow and be a normal kid because of this and he's like, and nobody told me about this.
Starting point is 00:49:52 So, and then he started this thing called the Charlie Foundation. And, and it's same thing, like, ittake this pill, take that pill. Like, that's it, like, that's a perfect example of like sometimes when somebody tells you something, like, you know, that seems a little crazy, like, you know what, there might be some truth to it, and you should do some research, because there is, and apparently tons of success, but then pharmaceutical companies came to like, hey, hey, we have something easier. We've created these pills that we're also having some success with. So what ended up happening was that they end up stop promoting the keto-jank diet.
Starting point is 00:50:32 And it was easier to just say, hey, here's a pill. And so that's what ended up happening. But if we talk about that, it's like we all agree, like, yeah, there's there's there's there's there's there sometimes they're going to push certain things on you. And the worst part of that story is think none of those doctors were evil people that wanted to see this child harmed. It's just that a, they were taught their whole life in that allopathic system. You've got to give them drugs or do surgery. That's the way we cure things. So ketogenic diet, that's crazy talk. And secondarily, also, they want to cover their ass because they can probably get sued seven ways to Sunday. If they don't, as medical experts recommend the prescribe, you're supposed to prescribe this drug in this case, and if you don't. So they're boxed into the system. They're not necessarily evil people. They're just in an evil system. So how can't th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, tho, thi, thi, thi, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, thi. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thee. the. thea. thea. theea. thea. thea. thea. theea. thea. thea. How do you change that? You have to change the system itself.
Starting point is 00:51:26 I totally agree. I think sometimes we think people are more monsters than they are. And I think most of the time they're just trying to white knuckle life and get through it and just the optics of it make it look bad. And you know we've done episodes on like, you know, my opinion is, I don't know if you guys have, I'm starting to believe liberalism really in this country is libertarianism. Maybe I'm wrong, but when you look at, but I think the libertarian party itself is at the top is just like any party just corrupt and controlled opposition. But if we take a look at the health care system here, like what we do to people who want to become doctors, like we just saddle them with so much debt that's almost impossible for them to want to do anything on their own to go to their own practice.
Starting point is 00:52:19 It's like I have to pay these off or else I'm going to get crippled financially. So they have to go in these plug and play things where they have their they have their their their their their their th. They th. They have th. They have th. They have their their their their their to to prescribe their to prescribe to prescribe their to prescribe to prescribe to prescribe their to prescribe to prescribe to prescribe to prescribe to prescribe th.

So they have to go in these plug-and-play things where they have to they have to prescribe this kind of medication, this kind of way, this boom, boom, boom, or else there's no work for them. And that's my own problem. It's like, you know, I don't know why the should be talking about getting rid of free, a fee of entry. Like, fee of entry is like crippling everybody. It's like, it's so expensive just to play ball right now, the only rich people can do it, in particular in a health care system.
Starting point is 00:52:59 I mean, just the amount of money that needs to be, there's no free market in any of this. Like, where can I go get discount health care? their their their their their their their their the the their the the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, th f f fee fee fee fee fee fee fee fee fee fee fee fee fee fee, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the the thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee, thee thee thee thee thee thee thee, that needs to be, there's no free market in any of this. Like, where can I go get discount health care in this? Where can I go get discount prescription? Like, real discount, like, not like, oh, instead of paying $300, I'm paying $100. I'm like, I'm talking like $10 and stuff. Like, it doesn't exist. It's so controlled. And I don't, I, I, I the, I thine, I thine, I, I, I thine, I, I, I, I thine, I, I, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't, tho, tho, tho, tho, tho, like, like, like, thi, thi, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. th doesn't focus on that. Go on. No, I get what you're saying, but libertarianism would be the free market advocates,
Starting point is 00:53:28 socialism, the Democratic Socialists, the Bernie supporters. I don't see that. Sorry, go on. Sorry, James. Well, as every, every American libertarian, at any rate, whether you're talking about the Cato Beltway Libertarians, or you're talking about the Tom Woods podcast Libertarians or you know anyone in between, they would be arguing the free market side of this. You're thinking of the Democratic Socialists, you're thinking of the Burdy Burrows, who are not libertarians. But I just feel like the, just based on like, because I'm not part of the party, but based on what I see through social media, no libertarians. What they're pushing is no free college and no one payer, which is I agree with.
Starting point is 00:54:11 Oh, no free college. Oh, I see. No free college. And my opinion is the free college whole thing is just these companies, these colleges invest in the military industrial complex. And that's why they don't want to give up that tuition. That's my opinion. But my my my my my my my my my my the the the the the the the the the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their. their. their. their. their. thoeck. thoes. thoes. three. three. three. three. the. the. their their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. the. the. the. the. the. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. thea. their why they don't want to give up that tuition. That's my opinion. But my point being is that I don't see them making these arguments. They're more telling people no, you're not going to get free health care.
Starting point is 00:54:33 Why not just like, no, you don't need free health care? Because for me, it's like, if you want to look at government, and the the VA. I mean you hear nightmare stories about veterans trying to get health care and how bad it is and like some of them just killing themselves in the parking lots because it's so bad. So obviously we don't want that. I don't know maybe because our population so huge we can't have that like some other countries do but instead getting where it's like maybe there's no patents on prescription medication or drugs and anybody can make the drug as long as its health and then there's a battle for your dollars and stuff like that and just getting
Starting point is 00:55:18 rid of fee of entry for like the medical community, like doctors so that when they get out of med school, they're not so in debt. Like, those are things I think would resonate with voters instead of saying, no, you don't get any health care, no, you can't go to college for free. I think that's in my opinion. Yeah, there's an argument to be made there. And yeah, getting to the system as a whole and would eliminate so much of the garbage nonsense that is propagated in the pharmaceutical industry in particular, let alone so many other industries. It's a it's an interesting I don't know how you change it I mean like
Starting point is 00:55:58 let's face it big pharmaceutical is straight up gangster man I mean there's a whole story about Trump's had a guy he put in charge of trying to reduce prices of pharmaceutical drugs and he was found with killing himself with two shots at the back of the head, which is totally typical for a suicide, which totally makes sense. But you know what the answer is though. You know what's going to save us? Vote harder guys. Come on, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. tog. toguu. togu. togu. togu. togu. toga. toguuui. togui. togui. togui. togui. t know what's going to save us. Vote harder guys. Come on, you're not voting hard enough. Just kick that box a little bit more forcefully or touch that screen with a little
Starting point is 00:56:31 bit more power. And there you go, that's the answer guys. We're going to vote in with someone to drain the swamp. I'm so on board, James, and I get it. I get in so many small little debates with people because people be like oh you know like oh you you're you're so aware what's going on how come you don't vote how come you don't you know and I'm like because I it would be like me voting for like who's gonna win the whole Kogan or macho man like it's like it's like it's theater like I it's pretending I believe that the system works to me like it I you know it's I there's so many people who get to the th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th the th th the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the they they the the the the the the the the the the the the the the that the system works. To me, like, I, you know, there's so many people who get so cut up in like the Russia Gade and the Trump scandals and this and that. And like, to me, like, I'm oblivious to a lot of it.
Starting point is 00:57:17 And because to me, like, all this infighting, I'm like, this shit happens all the time. Like, yeah, there's scumbags who are trying to screw other scumbags, because they're all trying to do the same thing, trying to get in power, trying to do favors for people. And I'm like, it's just, it's general hospital. It's a soap opera. It's, it's a reality TV. I'm like, so, throwne, th, th, th, th, to me it's like, it's all like, the big picture conversations to me are much more important. And if I get caught up in like all these every day a different headline about, you know, this
Starting point is 00:57:50 and that and this guy resigns and this guy, you know, it's like, does any of it matter? Like, it's the whole system's messed up and it's proven over and over again. It doesn't matter. Like, it's still, you know, war spending. I mean, Trump's... I'd like to ask you guys some real quick. Do you think that we're trying to get out of Afghanistan? Well, James would... He's talked about it on his show recently.
Starting point is 00:58:19 Yeah, no, I'll believe it when I see it. But if so, it's not to get out of Afghanistan, it's more to get into Iran and to maintain the presence there. There are suggestions that there have been secret side deals made as part of the official deal, that basically it's Taliban. Yeah, OK, you guys can have more of a share in the Afghan government, but we're going to keep some troops in the region in order to pressure Iran and you guys are basically going to be more pressuring Iran as well.
Starting point is 00:58:48 I don't know. I mean, who knows about what secret agreements have been made? They have said there were two secret clauses, essentially classified clauses in the agreement, the agreement, theand. that the agreement, theyrukis, the's 18,000 ways they could undermine that agreement between now and when the troops are supposed to leave a year plus from now. It's, it's theater. It's theater. Well, yeah, I mean, like a Taliban peace deal, like what does that be mean? Like, that's like it be going to like the bloods in the crypts and like, thanks, their, that's like, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's like, it's like, it's, it's like, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's,'re like, you know, not going to sell drugs in my block anymore? Like, it's just... I don't even believe it's that.
Starting point is 00:59:27 I believe it's like, if the neocons want war, all they have to do is like blow something up and say it was the Taliban and the PC's like, yeah, like they did 19 years ago, exactly. Yeah, 100% dude. It's like, let's say this is real in a weird way. Taliban wants us gone. We've agreed to God, why would they, the go, excuse me, why would they blow anything up? It makes no sense. Why would you even put that clause in there?
Starting point is 00:59:54 Because it's a clause that allows you to get out of this deal. It gets you optics that you're trying. these scumbags from around the way just blow something up blaming on the Taliban and here we are now this peace deal is in risk I mean listen I don't know why we just don't go hey pharmacy companies you make so much money just hire black water to protect your poppy fields because that's to me what this is really about obviously the Iran stuff as well but it's really about these poppy fields because the Taliban keep they they were burning them all down because the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their their their their their their their their peace the peace the peace their peace their peace the peace. the peace. the peace. the peace. the peace the peace the peace the peace the peace the peace the peace is the peace is the peace is the peace is the peace is the peace is the peace is the peace is the peace is the peace. the peace. the peace. the peace. the peace. the peace. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their the the the the the the the the the the the peace deal. the peace deal. the peace deal is the peace the peace the peace the peace the peace really about, obviously the Iran stuff as well, but it's really about these poppy fields because the Taliban keep, they were burning them all down because they didn't want them and we couldn't have that anymore because we're ran by big pharmaceuticals and we have to have troops protecting these poppy fields.
Starting point is 01:00:36 Just pay for them, just pay for black water to go do it or some mercenaries or something like that. But isn't it in- Eric Prince's ears are ringing right now. So that's a great idea, Sam. He's like Kramer, just comes through the door. Hello? But I've also heard that, you know, outside of the poppy fields, it's just always super important to have some type of base or military there because of strategy reasons. Like it's just, you know, you have access to other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other other the other the other. their their their their their to their to to their to to to to to to to to to to to their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. th. th. th. the. tr. tr. the. tr. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. or military there because of strategy reasons. Like it just, you know, you have access to other countries for right from there. And so I don't think we're obviously ever going to leave just like we're never going to leave the Middle East.
Starting point is 01:01:12 I mean, a huge thing that Trump was kind of saying when he was the-in. their tru. thee. that thin, Trump tweets that said, you know, things like, oh, you know, what are you doing in the Middle East, you know, it's a waste of money and all this stuff and obviously he's saying all the right things in regards to like PR, but like it's not happening. And I mean, you see things like, you know, what happened with Venezuela, with us being involved in their government. th. And, th. And getting involved in governments, we're still instigating war, we're still, you know, playing this whole political, you know, geopolitical chess. So I just think it's, it's a lot of it's just theater. And so, the coronavirus, because obviously that's the hot topic of late.
Starting point is 01:02:01 Do you think that, who politically is, is gaining from this? And, and so, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, and th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi., thi. We's, thi. We's, thi. We's, thi. We're, thi. We're, thi, thi, thi,. Do you think that who politically is is gaining from this and do you think that you know there is, what's your opinion on? Because you both have done a little bit of some podcasts and some research on it. Do you guys have, I'm sure the listeners would like to know? Because I've heard some people saying that like, China's hiding how these numbers and and it's way worse than what we're being told. And then I hear James like in like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, in, like, in, in, in, in, in the, in their, in their, in the. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the th. the the the the the the the the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. the. thi. the. th. th. th. the. th. th. th. th. their their Well on that note, I got to go. My next interview is waiting. So I'll leave you on that note. Yeah, please look, I've done a few videos on it, written a couple of articles so far. My short answer is, I don't know, real, fake, man-made, natural, some combination, some vaccine-related things, some 5G related things. There's 18 million options on the table and I don't know and news flash, neither do you, anyone who's listening. There's so many people who are so certain,
Starting point is 01:03:11 I know what's going on and they really don't. But I do know that this is going to be used to implement a bunch of different agenda items. So again, like so many other things, I don't know if it was staged or fake or whatever, but it doesn't really matter whether it's real or fake as long as they can get their agenda items through. And so I did a big, long article about that called coronavirus, the cures will be worse than the disease that people should read if they're interested in that because this is going to change people's lives, or it has the potential to completely........ their. their. the the the to change. to change. to change. to change. to completely change the way we are living our lives. People are already starting to see that with the economic effects and there's going to
Starting point is 01:03:46 be much more coming down the line here. So that's what I'm worried about. I'm much more worried about what governments are going to do as a result of this. And that's where I'm going to have to leave it. James, it's always a pleasure to tell you man. I just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just th just th just th just th just th just th. th. th. th. tho. th. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. tho. thoes. thoes. thoes. thi. thi. thoes. thoes. thoes. the the the the the the their. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their.

Starting point is 01:04:27 appreciate it and and what we'll keep in toucest like usual we're probably pissing off James's fans because we spend the first 20 minutes instead talking about the hot topic coronavirus we talked about the today but I think that's great I thinne.
