PokerandPolitics, and welcome to another episode of Adventures in Hellworld.
I am joined, as always, by Sarge.
Hello from the internet!
And the mysterious Elle.
Hello, my beautiful babies!
So today, as usual, a lot of stuff going on, but I went to the internet this fine morning and saw that the Gab account on Twitter... You woke up, you put on your slippers, you grabbed your rolled up newspaper, and you strolled on down to the internet this morning.
Yes!
That's exactly how it happened.
He keeps a toast dangling out of your mouth.
You're like a man about town.
My piping hot cup of coffee in my hand.
Checking into your dapper business suit while still holding your coffee?
Efficiency, dammit.
All of these things.
I, Old Man Coffee, just strolling about the internet, and I saw that Gab's official channel on Twitter, their official account on Twitter, Quote tweeted a shot I had taken at them, and they declared, based, which was weird.
I don't know why you just say the word based with no context.
And then they stated, pornography is not speech degenerates, which was how they phrased their retaliation to me.
Porn is a speech degenerate.
Because Stu Peters, who is like a dime store version of Alex Jones, went on Truth Social, Trump's attempt at a social media
platform, and posted the most ridiculous thing he possibly could in an effort to get banned, which
was effectively, anyone involved with the vaccine should be rounded up and shot. That is
what he stated, and he immediately got hit with either like a timeout or a suspension or whatever.
And he did this so he could run to Gab and piss and moan about the fact that Truth Social is not
letting me speak my mind.
They're not a real free speech platform.
And so I quote tweeted that guy and I was like, hey, I was banned from Gab.
You know why?
Because I posted a photo of a naked lady.
Free speech isn't free because Because, uh, Torb's whole angle is this, like, hardcore Christian lunatic stuff about morality, where you can deny the Holocaust on Gab, but if you put a pair of tits on Gab, no bueno!
You're off!
You're outta here, bub!
So... Did you actually get yourself kicked off of Gab for porn?
I did not, but I should.
I should make an account on Gab, post a bunch of photos of naked guys and gals, and wait for my removal, and then herald my defeat.
I mostly just haven't done that because I didn't want to make a second account because my burner account that I use to monitor people on Gab, it just was an annoying bit of effort to jump through the hoops to get a Gab account.
Also, man, the market is getting saturated, but we'll talk more about that later.
Yes.
So Gab, which is essentially just racism Twitter, they noticed you.
They noticed you, senpai.
And then they were just like, hey, we're going to elevate you on our enemies list by posting that you are a pornographer and a degenerate.
I mean, we talk about this all the time.
Mike the Pornographer.
We're just like, old Mikey Porno.
It's all I ever talk about.
As soon as the podcast is over, all I'm ranting and raving about is the latest porn that I both saw and produced, because I'm a degenerate that way.
If we ever publish any sort of media that we need to sell a physical copy of as merch, we need to use that as a box quote.
Degenerate.
Just in quotes on the back of the box.
Like Torba from Gab.
Yes!
We have proof that you said it, idiot.
So like, guess what?
Racists think that we're degenerate.
So let's go!
Yeah!
I actually, I just hadn't done it yet, because I had, Old Man Coffee had a busy morning, but I was going to edit my Twitter bio to have that quote in there from Torch, because I wanted to wear that as a badge of honor.
Nice.
The other two things that made me laugh about this is that, one, I posted the screenshots of twerps yelling at me, and it, like, it did some numbers, but it didn't blow the world.
It didn't blow, it didn't, like, knock my socks off.
It wasn't like, oh, oh snap, Gab took a shot at you!
That's, like, that's wild, man, like, you're over the target.
People were like, oh yeah, Gab's a bunch of fucking losers.
They would do that.
Of course they would.
They don't know how to pick a fight.
So the fact that Gab is just no one cares made me laugh.
And the other thing that was really awesome was Gab, the free speech social platform, posted this shit on Twitter and then restricted who could reply to it.
I was not allowed to reply to Gab's rebuke of me on Twitter.
They censored me.
I love that.
That was so awesome.
It was like, who can reply?
It's like, the people that GetOnGab mentioned can reply.
Nobody else can.
And since they didn't mention anybody, nobody can reply to that post.
It's super awesome that they did that.
You know what, I just realized that we already do sort of have merch that you could use a box quote for.
You should just put it on your book.
You have a book out now, do you not?
Yeah, I have the book as a Kindle.
I'm working on getting it as a paperback.
But yes, when I get the paperback format set up, I will absolutely have that on the back as a back cover quote for the book.
degenerate, torbs official, torbs Gap account.
Yeah, just, hey, any other QAnon people who wanna call me a piece of shit, please do.
I will gladly post your commentary about me on the back of my book.
Jordan Sather saying that he wanted to sue me, I could absolutely use that as a back of the book quote.
I mean, yeah, I don't think there's any greater endorsement.
Has Jay-Z ever come at you just so you could like, quote unquote, play both sides of the aisle?
Uh, I-I did- I did make a tweet about J-Stew, like, a few days ago, but I haven't heard any blowback about it.
Because that guy's, like, hypersensitive.
If you talk about him, even in the most tangential way possible, you're probably getting a Substack article of 2,000 words directed at you for being part of QAnon and being part of the plot to, like, the show.
That's a good thing that I, and therefore probably everybody, because I like to think that I speak for the common man, we don't really fucking know what Substack is, so who cares?
The people that are already deeply plugged in are gonna get their, like, some of them are gonna get their jimmies wrestled by Mike Rains, and it's just like, the rest of the world are just like, who on a what is talking about who?
Nobody cares!
I mean, at least on Twitter, in theory, the world could be watching, but Substack?
The world is busy watching Twitter.
No Substack.
Absolutely.
The thing about Substack on that level is that it's almost designed to be like a niche micro thing, because if you have an audience of like 300,000 people that are just sort of like watching you on a very surface level area, If you try to convert that into monetization, you're not going to get that many bites of the apple.
But if you have like 30,000 dedicated lunatics who are hanging on your every word, and then you start bumping up like a $3 fee to read your hardcore content, or $5, then you start ranking in the bucks because like your just addicted audience just has to have it.
They got to know all the pros and cons.
Mike, quit discussing to our business model about our business model.
The people aren't supposed to know.
Oh, yeah, I'm blowing it.
I'm giving this shit away for free.
That's a huge mistake on my part.
Yes.
No, but the thing is, I mean, yes, it is a huge mistake.
Wink.
Wink.
Exactly.
OK, well, look at this full appetizer platter before we even get to the headlines for the week.
So let's quickly discuss the one last thing we wanted to talk about in the fucking amuse-bouche, which is Wendy Rogers has apparently lost her mind.
Wendy Rogers has decided that no one's paying enough attention to her recently, so she decided to just go full total conspiracy nutter, QAnon, anything you want to talk about, she's in for it.
She made a post about Michelle Obama and the Prime Minister of New Zealand both being men, then called Barack Obama gay.
When that post apparently wasn't offensive enough, She then got into World Trade Center Building 7, just going deep into the weeds 9-11 truth or shit.
And then beyond that, she made a post recently about using all the offensive slurs you use for transgender people and saying like, Trans people don't like it when you call them this, but I don't like it when children are chemically castrated and mutilated and then later in life they turn out to regret it.
Muggles don't like to be called Muggles.
You know what I have to say to that?
Fuck muggles.
Look at them.
Fuck.
Yeah.
Anyway, uh, yeah, wow, what a piece of work.
Not a whole lot to say about that other than just like... No, no, baby wants her bottle.
That's all that's going on there.
God bless ya.
Bless your little heart.
She was just the belle of the ball for those months during the Arizona audit when she was so positive she was gonna arrest everybody for all their crimes.
And then, oops, the Arizona audit crashed and burned and now the circus has left Arizona.
Well, you know what?
If she really wanted to get some attention in this political climate, she should have got behind the wheels of a big rig.
Mike, go ahead and play our content warning and our headline, boom!
Content warning.
The Adventures in Hellworld podcast talks in-depth about QAnon, which means we have to talk about all kinds of child abuse and violence against people.
Listener discretion advised.
From the digital headlines to the digital front lines, it's Q's in the News!
Goddammit, you beat me to it!
So, in Canada, the honking has come and gone.
10-4, good buddy!
5-5, other lingo!
255 other lingo 10-4 yeah
Oh, so, um, um, fascist dictator Justin Trudeau, as all of QAnon and right-wing lunatics all over social media have called him.
The scientifically improbable lovechild of Adolf Hitler and Fidel Castro.
I heard that on the internet, and who would take the time to write a lie on the internet?
Wendy Rogers, that is who you should have been railing against.
Going after Obama?
Obama's old news, baby!
He can't be president anymore, fuck him!
You know who's hot right now?
Trudeau.
You accuse him of having gay parents who also happen to be Adolf Hitler and Fidel Castro.
Exactly!
How much more inflammatory could it be?
Which, not that it matters, I don't think those guys ever met.
No, but... Not publicly, but in the same way that JFK and, you know, Marilyn Monroe would ever like officially a thing.
But I mean, we all knew.
Exactly.
It was behind the scenes.
It was behind the scenes.
It was like a palpable tension behind the scenes whenever they were around.
Those sexual tensions, I think you could cut it with a knife.
Same thing for Hitler and Castro.
It was incredible.
Absolutely incredible.
And the CIA did when they secretly killed Marilyn Monroe.
This is why we have a content warning, because we have snapped immediately into fanfiction about two horrible dictators.
Being in love and siring some sort of child through the miracle of science.
I mean, the Germans were about that weird science shit, so this seems like it could be some sort of steampunky mystery.
Anyway, what the hell are we supposed to be talking about?
Truckers.
That's right.
So, as the hashtag BlackfaceHitler was trending, Trudeau, they're just so desperate.
They're like the most petulant, whiny, screamy little children imaginable.
Wasn't it misspelled?
It was Hiltler, right?
Yeah, one of the various times when they got that hashtag trending, the bots managed to misspell it so that it came out wrong because they're so dumb.
But the Canadian police were like, look, we are going to arrest you in a couple days if you don't knock this off.
And then a couple days later, they were not knocking it off.
So then the police very politely started arresting all of them.
It's not fun and games, but you know, we're going to need you to clear out here, eh?
We don't want to hear anything about it.
We'll give you two days, because that's the right thing to do.
But after that, you better clear out of here, eh?
So after all their EDM parties on the streets and calls for Trudeau to resign, which why would a dictator resign when these idiot truckers were yelling at them?
The cops came in and busted them up and most of the ringleaders of the Canadian convoy were arrested.
Everyone else saw the writing on the wall and drove away.
There have been sporadic protests around Canada of people being like, Boo!
What you did to those truckers was mean and we're mad about it, but that's about it.
Okay, we're gonna go home now because it's cold.
Yeah.
So basically this incredible moment in time that QAnon had been ranting and raving about for weeks on end about being the death blow against the cabal and how it was going to topple Trudeau and then, I don't know, somehow domino theory its way into Biden and then the rest of the world.
Not so much.
Not so much.
No one's going to remember this in a month.
It's over.
You lost.
Go home, guys.
In the real world, you know what never happens?
A big minigun never comes out of a truck.
Right?
If that was going to happen, this seems like it would be, like in real life, that would be the perfect opportunity for it to happen.
Just a bunch of crazy conservative people with access to several trucks just trying to make a big political point.
What a horrible reality we live in.
So boring.
They arrested all the leaders, as Mike said.
The one leader, a man who's just a trucker and owns a small company,
he's only allowed back in Ottawa for legal proceedings.
And after one night in jail, he just gave up immediately and said he just wanted to go back home.
And they said, cool, $100,000 bond.
You're only allowed back into the city for legal proceedings, that's it.
And all the other leaders, not all of them have been charged,
but anyone who set up like the big GoFundMes and the Gibson Go's, like they're all fucking done.
Yeah.
They gotta get Pat King at this point.
For some reason, that scumbag's still, like, floating around, but beyond him... I feel like part of the problem with, like, you know, quote-unquote justice at the end of stuff like this is that you would think that it would be game over for these guys, like, career-wise, but it turns out that they're a bunch of, like, Crazy conservative people that have a lot of money that might like the cut of this guy's jib.
Right.
And just go ahead and employ exclusively his company with some big trucker contract or whatever.
I could just be like, oh yeah, by sticking to my guns about this irrational, stupid, dangerous thing and being an asshole about it, I, uh, instead of being punished and having my money go down, I was instead rewarded and my money went up.
Yeah, but he's just actually banned from the city of Ottawa.
Yeah, but I'm sure you can do plenty of business in not-Ottawa.
Canada's a big place.
Yeah, you're not wrong.
And really, are you missing out much if you can't go to Ottawa?
I mean, really, if you've seen, like, one snow-covered...
Auto and sound off.
Oh, yeah.
Hey, take that auto off.
Boom.
I don't understand.
You know, you better fucking you better pull your head out of your ass, bud.
It's just infuriating, infuriating.
Regular Canadian citizen. So, oh, yeah, that's that's gonna be next week next week's pod. It's gonna be a giant apology
to Canada It's it's a fucking huge bummer that we're not gonna get to
talk about truckers anymore because I feel like that We still have more to say about truckers
Hopefully hopefully something else comes along to allow us to keep talking about him
Oh, lookie here!
An American truck co-employee is heading to Washington, D.C.!
I don't believe it!
Ha ha!
Surprising absolutely no one.
Holy shit.
Because America and Canada are the same place, and you can just go ahead and get away with the same old shit in America.
Well, I will say that people have been pointing out that the start of the American trucker convoy, which is beginning on the West Coast, they're going to go into Arizona, and then allegedly try to drive across America to get to D.C.
I aggressively use the term allegedly because some of the people that are part of this quote-unquote convoy have not committed to going beyond Arizona.
They're like, we're driving to the pizza joint, we're getting a slice, uh, no pedo, uh, none of that, calm down, uh... God, I'd be, no, not pizza, anything but pizza, uh, hot dogs!
We're gonna go get hot dogs!
Wait, Obama wanted $50,000 in hot dogs!
No hot dogs either!
No, no, cheeseburgers!
Oh god, cheese!
Oh no!
Who knew that American, uh, comfort food could be such a perilous thing to talk about?
Oh my god.
But uh these yeah this and uh someone was following uh this quote-unquote convoy and they had exactly one actual semi in the entire convoy.
It was a bunch of like regular trucks some SUVs and some other stuff but like an actual big rig They had all of one at that point in the ride, and they're trying to encourage more people to show up.
The point of this convoy is to make stops for people to connect to the convoy, for it to build steam on its way across America.
Into DC, but I really can't imagine that you're going to build much steam before you get east of the Mississippi for such a long journey, because how many people have the desire to blow a week or more of their time to drive across America For what is something that is assuredly either going to end in nothing happening or them being arrested.
I mean, those are the only... Yeah, considering the National Guard is already going to be called up to D.C.
for this.
Like, it's like, enjoy your fucking convoy, idiots.
A. We've already seen what happened in Canada.
B. We're not Canada.
If they shut down, try and shut down a major American city.
They're not going to let it sit for three weeks.
Yeah.
And also, I mean, like, because like America, the American citizens who saw what happened to Canada, some guy was talking about trying to block the beltway around DC, not trying to block DC itself.
And it was like, if you tried to block the beltway, uh, The actual, like, just civilians in that area would tear your truck piece by piece apart.
They would, like, show up with, like, chainsaws and blowtorches and just turn your truck into scrap metal and remove it to get it out of the way.
They wouldn't need the cops to show up with tow trucks or anything.
The people in the area would just handle it themselves.
Yeah, that is for sure a good way to get violenced.
Yes!
Like, America is, like, it's just not Canada, but, like, this is gonna go very bad for you.
Best case scenario, actual, like, law enforcement or military are the ones removing you from the situation, but...
I would not want to be down around Baltimore in D.C.
and just cause a disturbance.
Yeah.
It's quite bad.
And the other thing, uh, is that, like, their goal, their stated goal is to make it there for the State of the Union, which, if there was ever a situation where security is at its highest possible point in D.C., it's for the State of the Union.
So, like, you, those trucks are not getting within 50 miles of anything.
Like, they're gonna show up and be like, oh, look!
There's a retaining wall, there's a million spike strips, there's, I don't know, like 500 National Guard.
Yeah, you're, no.
You turn around right now, because this only gets worse from here for you if you keep this up.
This does not end well.
And then they scream, truck lives matter, from like a thousand yards away, and they claim it's a big victory.
Oh yeah, we showed Biden.
Oh, he was trembling.
He was trembling in his boots, that scared old man, Joe Biden.
We intimidated with our mighty display of trucks.
Yes.
How many trucks did you have?
Eight?
But we had a lot of SUVs, and we had a bunch of, like, souped up pickups.
It was great.
And as many trucks as just, like, a regular highway.
Yes!
Like a regular stretch of highway, I'm just routinely going past several trucks in a row.
And it's just like, oh shit, but they all managed to go to D.C.
How impressive is that, eh?
What are the odds?
Oh my god!
You are... You did it!
You did it!
You made it look like 2 p.m.
on any highway in America!
Oh my god!
You cause traffic.
Yeah, and it's getting to exactly the same people who love parades, right?
It's like, oh my god, look at that line of things!
I love it when it's in a line!
It really fucking gets me hard when it's up in a line.
Oh shit.
Formation so good.
Such an incredible line.
So did you guys make Biden resign?
No.
Did you end the mandates?
Oh, well, there weren't any real mandates.
We were just complaining because it gave us an excuse to complain.
So what did you guys actually do?
Hey, did you see that yellow bar on Google Maps?
We turned it orange for like 45 minutes.
That was us.
That was that section of the road going from yellow to orange.
We fucked that road up real bad.
It almost made it to red.
We were so close.
You were so close to making it red.
That'd been so great.
You should have seen the line when we were driving.
Oh my god.
So yeah, the half-assed, pathetic, just absolute outright grift that is the American Trucker Convoy is currently attempting to spring to life to con rubes out of money.
And that's it.
The actual physical display of this convoy at this moment is unimpressive.
Should it become more impressive, we will tell you about that next week on the podcast.
But for the moment, This is not looking like it's going to be a super intimidating turn of events for team right wing people that just hate everything and are complaining and want to have an excuse to protest.
So Mike Rains, I unfortunately have to interrupt you for a Sarge Was Right alert, because if I recall, during our pre-production meeting for the show, we had discussed that we were going to lead with the big news of the week, which was that now, finally, Scientific evidence has apparently told us who the identity of Q is.
And, because of my love of a segue, I have ruined that.
As Sarge predicted when I said that I wasn't going to write it down.
So, breaking news right now, second headline for the week, Sarge was right.
Yes.
And we did forget.
So for those of you marking down the first time Star Wars was right in the year 2022, it was February 23rd.
Everyone who had that on the pool can cash their tickets.
It's great.
But yes, the New York Times came out with a scientific analysis of both early and later Q-drops And they declared with an incredible amount of certainty that the early Q-drops were written by Paul Ferber, and the later Q-drops were written by Ron Watkins.
So to all our listeners who were not seated when I made these announcements, I apologize to you falling to the ground and bruising your tailbones or just crashing.
I'm really sorry for burying the lead and slow-rolling you like that.
You must be truly devastated.
I hope that you were not driving when we dropped such the bombshell on you.
Yeah, oh man, yeah.
Genuinely, the most exciting thing for me is that they allege that the switcheroo didn't happen until, like, later.
Like, again, my theory was always that Q was multiple people from the start.
Because the writing styles are just so all over the place.
Yeah, it bounces a lot.
We went through Maybe Ron Watkins is like a werewolf or something.
He's like the Incredible Hulk.
He's got two personalities.
Oh, interesting.
He's Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
Have we ever seen Ron Watkins at night?
Have we ever seen what happens when the sun sets on Ron Watkins?
That's when he goes to Soaplands.
No, that's when he climbs out of the Stephen Urquell machine, and he's like Ronnie W. or whatever, and then he's just like a fucking cool cat.
He's got like a greaser hairdo, but he's still pulling it off somehow.
It'd be great.
It's like, anime, never watched it, get out of your way.
He's got like tremendous dick energy, it's just radiating.
He's like the perfect cell of big dick energy.
That just makes me laugh so much because after Q had been stolen from Paul Ferber, again going with the New York Times narrative here...
Paul was working on a bunch of dumb small-time grifts to try to build himself back up in the right-wing crankosphere, and one of his favorite things that he was constantly promoting was a dumb attempt at being Q again that was called Big Dickanon.
No, shut up.
Absolutely, this is a real thing.
Shut up.
Paul Ferber was constantly reposting all the posts on the chanboards from Big Dickanon.
Wow, what a rich tapestry.
What was the story of Big Dickanon?
I mean, I feel like it's pretty self-explanatory there, bud.
Yeah, I need to know.
Well, the big swing from Big Dickanon was that the Three Gorges Dam in China was gonna just collapse any day now, and that was...
his big thing that was going to trigger the prophecy.
Like once that damn went down, like the, the Chai Com government would be just absolutely incapable
of handling the groundswell of protests and riots and social evil that
would come from that.
And then blah, blah, blah.
Whatever the big Dickanon version of The Great Awakening was.
The Great Coming, I have no idea.
But something was going to happen that was going to then result in the good guys winning after the dam collapsed.
And because no one gave a shit about this and everyone was like, Paul, calm down.
Just go in the corner and relax.
Like, your attempt to be cute again is sad.
It's just sad.
We're all going to pretend this never happened, except for left-wing trolls like the Adventures in Hellworld Podcast, who are now talking about Big Dick and on.
So, yeah, for your sake, just let it go.
For what it's worth, only one-third of the Adventures in Hellworld Podcast is currently talking about this guy.
The other two, I feel like, have made it pretty clear that we didn't know he existed until right now.
I knew of him from the documentary and other pods that have covered the history of QAnon, but I constantly forget about him.
Also, think of the timeline where we could have been Avengers and Big Dicking.
How are you ever going to monetize that?
At some point, the reason behind us making this show is to be entertaining, informative, and then eventually sell out in that order.
I don't know about the rest of you guys, but number three is to sell out.
That sounds like a carnival.
That sounds like a traveling carnival.
It's monetizable!
You gave me a challenge, sir, and I met it.
It's monetizable in the same way that a traveling carnival setup is, which is to say that yes, I'm sure it makes money, but at what cost?
Do you remember those big Johnson shirts from Back in the day?
I do remember the Big Johnson shirts.
I'm not sure if I remember Big Johnson.
But I do remember shirts from a local business in an area I used to live in about people proudly saying that they grow grass or whatever.
I just remember, it must have been the late 90s, everywhere you looked there were shirts that said Big Johnson.
It just had a nerdy guy on it doing something like firefighting or working on a truck.
That was like having intercourse with several women.
Yes.
And this was like right after all the co-ed Naked X things had come and gone, like after that t-shirt trailer had died.
Yeah.
Where was it in relation to, remember when the Looney Tunes went sort of like hardcore there in the mid-90s, where suddenly it was like Tweety Bird peeing on a thing?
It was I think before that, but right after all the Calvin Klein knockoffs.
Where it was like Darth Vader instead of Calvin Klein.
Was Backstreet back yet?
Ooh, hard to say.
Or was Backstreet still out?
I think we were just waiting for somebody to bring it back.
I think it was No Diggity.
And maybe they were gonna back it up.
Oh, that's Blackstreet.
That was Blackstreet, yes.
That is a different type of street altogether.
Oh, God.
I have a question for Sarge.
Was Big Richard's Adventure the carnival where the main character from Nightmare Arrow he went to at the start of the movie?
Was that that group before he took his mental escape somewhere else in New York?
No, Big Richard's Adventure would have been something probably from like Baby's Day Out movie or something.
One of those awful movies where the babies can talk.
It's Johnny Knoxville's next amusement park movie.
They're gonna give him another shot after Adventure Park, or whatever it was called, didn't work out for him.
Maybe it's for the best that we didn't, like, so, certainly the, hey, the New York Times has decided, using this type of science, apparently, that these people are cute.
In theory, that should be a big headline, but the fact that they're suspect is just the people that we always thought it was.
Yeah.
Makes it sort of hard to be too excited about.
Like, we've been talking about this exact theory of, you know, it started with this one guy, then Rod stole it, and then it was him, and now it's dead because Rod is trying to be more visible publicly.
Yeah, if you go back in our pod, I think I actually said is, like, our editorial opinion, if we have one, that Paul Fervor was Q, and then Ron stole it, and then Ron was Q.
Where exactly that happened, I don't know, kind of hard to pinpoint.
I think we were still doing drops when we were talking about it.
Yeah, we definitely were.
So instead, we just decided to talk about an assortment of random bullshit during that time.
But I guess it is, so like, did you look into this article, Mike?
How reliable is this science?
Well, the science is basically like tracking speech patterns and how these two guys talked and then comparing their use of language with cues.
A mathematical approach known as stylometry.
I'm probably horrifyingly butchered that word.
And so they claim that this is potentially a new form of science, and the Swiss team said their accuracy rate was 93%, and the French team said that they pin Watkins and Ferber's writings to be at 98% likely that they were both Q.
And this same kind of thing did a study of a book that J.K.
Rowling had written under a pen name.
And it was like, nope, this is J.K.
Rowling's writing.
We know what she writes.
We know how she writes.
This is her.
She's just trying to hide it.
And the FBI also used this kind of data to show that Ted Kaczynski was the Unabomber from the manifestos the Unabomber had written.
So this is a form of analysis that has been used in the past to get results.
He's so sexy.
how concrete those results are, your mileage may vary.
Paul Ferber came out with a sub stack reply to this, where he was like, this is all bullshit, I'm not Q,
it's all lies.
By the way, Q's incredible.
I have a book out about how awesome Q is.
Please buy my book.
He's so sexy.
I heard he had a real big dick.
Oh, yeah, exactly, exactly.
I heard that guy has a big penis.
These people need to be more humble, like our good friend Mike Rains.
I believe earlier I threw to him, asking him if he had a book out, and he just said yes, but it's not in paperback yet, and then he didn't say the name of it.
It was incredible.
He's the most humble writer that ever lived, so you definitely should not buy his book, which is why we're just not going to tell you the name of it.
We definitely shouldn't add to the outro reel that you can find Mike's book wherever you can find it, but don't say the name.
Don't worry about that.
that. It's definitely not it's like much much like Andrew Garfield. It is definitely not doing that thing. Yeah.
Wink.
As topical a reference I could be without feeling still sort of
Anyway, so yeah, it turns out that Rod Watkins is Q, or was Q the last time Q did a thing, which has been over a year now, and yet dumb fucks like us are still talking about him.
What a bunch of clowns.
What I was going to say is Ron went to the governor of Arizona and did that surety bond thing we had talked about in previous episodes where he was like, hey, we're filing a claim against the governor of Arizona for not defending the border against illegal immigration because he's a bad person and we don't like him.
So Ron's trying to antagonize the actual Republican Party of Arizona on top of everybody else so he can enjoy his 4% at the polls come the Republican primary, because that's about where your political career is going to go, Ron.
It's going to go real well for you.
That's a bold move, Cotton.
Let's see if that works out.
Because if I was, I don't know, running for office as a Republican in a state, you know what I want to do with a Republican governor?
Spit in his eye.
I wouldn't like seek his endorsement or try to get that guy on my good side, maybe show up at a rally with him, have him give me a shout out.
No, no.
I want to be like, yo, guy that's like basically the head of my political party in the state that I'm in.
Fuck you, buddy!
How do you like them apples?
This is a bold, solid political move by me, Ron Watkins.
Me, smart!
Where was all this material about Ron Watkins' actual political ambitions back when we were riffing on Nightmare Alley instead of when I was trying to segue into an accent line?
You were like, hey, Ron, why don't you sit with me instead?
Let me do my type 2 on Ron Walken being a dumb fuck.
And I was just like, man, it felt like it had wound down.
You were just sitting on that when you just had to be back walking?
No, I had completely forgotten about it until we got to that point in the conversation.
And I was like, oh right, Ron did a really dumb thing recently.
Sort of like how we all forgot to talk about how Rod was Q. Yeah, I mean, it's... So it sounds like this article really covered it and nailed it down, but just everyone that cares was already like, yeah, we know.
Like, he said it on the dumb documentary, and then it just couldn't have been anyone else before that, so... A, we know, and B, it doesn't matter, because they fucked off, and it's clear that they're not like, you know, Like, it's clear who the potential players were, but the impact is more important than the person ever was.
So who gives a shit?
Yeah.
Agreed.
But that's always been actually our stance on the podcast.
Although, like everybody, we had an opinion on who the identity was.
And it turns out it's pretty spot on.
Yeah.
According to this science, I will allow to validate me until better science invalidates that science.
Exactly.
Exactly.
Are we ready to talk about war?
War!
I hear it never changes.
Yes, I am totally okay with talking about some war.
I don't want to set the world on fire.
Oh, and we just got copyright struck.
Yeah.
Oh, damn it.
Oh, no!
Your singing was too good and it didn't apply.
It was so awesome.
It sounded just like it was coming from the 50s.
By the algorithm.
Do we have any war-related headlines this week?
I don't know, seems like a big swig.
Yeah, so Vladdy Daddy, QAnon's favorite political leader now that everyone's forgotten about Kim Jong-un.
Vlad has invaded Ukraine in a sorta, kinda half-assed invasion of Ukraine at this point.
He's gone into the eastern sections of Ukraine to Donetsk and Luhansk, which I probably butchered both of those, but I gave it a try.
And those are sections of Ukraine that there are Russian separatists in there in some parts of it.
They're like, yeah, we really don't want to be here.
We want to be in Russia, blah, blah, blah.
Uh, Biden and the West have said, well, the Russians were going to try to stage some false flags in order to justify going in.
And then like a week later, basically the Russians were like, Hey, the Ukrainians are like shelling these poor Russian separatists.
We must pour our army over the border to save them.
And then they did that and then Vlad signed a piece of paper that says that Russia recognizes this section of the Ukraine wants to be part of the Soviet wants to be part of the Russia so now it is no takesies-backsies that's just the way this works and the rest of the world is like nope fuck you you assholes and so that is where we currently stand with Russia nibbling on the fringes of Ukraine and Our esteemed former president, Donald Trump, who was very tough on Russia, if you listen to anyone who kisses Trump's ass and likes to gaslight people, has come out and declared that what Putin did to be a genius move and very savvy, because that's what you do when a geopolitical rival who has competing interests against you violates international law and attempts to start a war.
You commend them for their excellent gamesmanship.
And this wasn't like, you know, at least at least when America does a war, we have like, at least that we make it, we manufacture a flimsy excuse for it, like weapons of mass destruction.
But you know, it's really just, hey, it's payback for 9-11, etc.
But it's just like, in this instance, Like, Russia just doesn't have any specific reason for, like, it's like Ukraine stepped at them.
They're just like, eh, it's there, we're taking it.
It's ours now.
We want it.
I made this.
Yeah, exactly!
We keep eye-fucking this hot Ukraine and we just can't help ourselves.
Yeah, we just have to grab a piece of Ukraine and that's just the way this is going to work out.
And we're going to claim otherwise.
We're going to claim there's some justification for why we're doing this when we know there is no justification for why we're doing this.
But their justification for doing it plays to nobody ever.
It's so weak.
It's just the weakest thing ever.
Even if the people of that land are just like, man, it would be great to be part of Russia.
You just don't get to make that call.
There are plenty of times where I would love to be in Canada, and it would be great if the land under my feet was technically Canada, but I just don't get to be the person who decides that.
Yeah, you don't get to fly a Canadian flag out in your front yard, and then the Canadian army just shows up and is like, El's desire to be Canadian has been solidified.
This chunk of land is now part of Canada.
And the crazy dictator, son of both Hitler and Castro, Justin Trudeau, signs a piece of paper that now says, Elistan is now part of Canada.
That's sort of what Southern Citizens is all about, right?
But like, their whole thing is that they're sort of like in an alternate dimension to America that rests right on top of the one that we live in.
They just really like getting tased.
They just live in an ARG where if you say magic words and write down the right things on a form and sign it, you don't have to pay taxes or need a driver's license to operate a motor vehicle.
You can just make the rules not apply to you if you know the secret magic inside.
They're just trying to crush Pathfinder-style DC-50 persuasion or bluff checks.
Exactly.
It's like Mormonism, but instead of like a new form of Christianity, it's just a new way to interpret the law.
I found these gold plates, so now I don't have to pay income taxes.
Why?
How does that work?
Well, I can't show you the plates, but they told me I'm Mook Sam, so we're good.
We're good here.
It's all good.
You guys know Moroni, right?
It's taken up with him.
Yes, exactly.
I found these gold plates.
Only I can look at them, because your head will explode.
It's just me.
Do you really want me to bother Moroni with this?
I mean, he might be pretty angry.
I can't if you want.
Okay, I'm gonna run out the fireball.
Oh, no?
No?
Exactly.
We, Joseph Smith, big missing grave robber.
When we get a new thumbnail for our podcast, we're going to have to have Moroni in some section of the thumbnail.
Because we love that guy.
We love that angel.
He's the best.
And we won't need to label him Ben Garrison style because everyone knows what Moroni looks like.
Yes, exactly.
Popular character.
Very popular.
Is there a Moroni in the Persona games?
Can we just use one of those?
Uh, no.
Not yet.
They do have a bunch of angels and, like, Christian demons, but... If it's not Moroni, I don't fucks with it.
Exactly!
Sorry, I'll write him a letter.
I'll get in touch today.
Please do.
Please do.
So, let's wrestle ourselves back onto these here tracks and further discuss Vladimir Putin's desire to just do a war and some crime.
Presumably, QAnon has an opinion about this, and because they are so righteously American, I'm sure that they hate this empirically un-American thing that's happening.
Oh, they're so happy.
They have completely created this alternate world where Russia are the ultimate good guys, Ukraine is the most evil deep state thing you could possibly imagine.
It's been the playground of all sorts of criminality and evil.
Who has better soldiers, according to Q?
That would be the real, I mean, ooh.
They're so manly.
That's about for the ages.
According to QAnon, deeply American QAnon, who has better soldiers, China or Russia?
That's tough because it's, they, there's been this circulating video package of a Chinese military commercial followed by a Russian military commercial followed by a horrible American military commercial and it's just, it's so funny because the Chinese and the Russian ones are just this schlocky Michael Bay bullshit with glistening abs and The Russian one is just literally all these guys that it looked like they just had one guy walk by the camera and then they just like put him in the, they just copied him and put him in the rest of the room.
It's just this same like, uh, five foot 10 white guy with just omni abs and shaved head, dead blue eyes.
And there's just a million of him.
And then they're putting on their Russian military uniform.
They're running in a field.
They're like shooting their guns.
Everything's great.
And then the Chinese one is basically the same thing.
But the one thing that makes me laugh about the Chinese one is that it has a bunch of shots of a Gigi Ping just like, like looking at the soldiers or waving at people or giving a fury speech.
And I would love to imagine these same clowns watching the American version of that ad with Biden talking and then be like, yeah!
Yeah!
Go Biden!
Go the military leader of our nation!
Because they would absolutely be like, that commercial has the president in it and because I don't like that president, I'm mad.
So it's just, it's just so, but both of them are just like so schlocky and like just the fact that it's all the same person.
All the dudes look the same because there's like really no diversity in either army.
Then you smash cut to the American commercial and it's a woman talking about how she grew up wanting to be a part of the army and then she joined and she's proud and you just like you just see the seething hatred and contempt that they have for this commercial because look at this beta cuck American woke military versus those omni-abbed Russians and Chinese it's it's no wonder why we're getting our asses kicked this is bullshit and it's like you know like if you were like a woman in China or Russia and you're looking at these ads like you're not represented you have no part of the military you have no ownership of that that's just a boys club where a bunch of guys like do stomach crunches and then run around in fields shooting guns
I mean, it's just... it's just so weird that these... Well, no, because the Russian military also invades Ukraine.
That also, yes.
They're actually doing stuff.
Yeah, they actually run across the fields of Ukraine.
I'm sure the Chinese military is pretty busy suppressing their population.
Thank you very much.
To imply that these hard-bodied soldiers are not putting the work in is a discredit to both nations, one of which is invading another foreign power just for the lols, and the other has been actively suppressing their population for like a hundred years.
Yeah, neither one actually has a very good track record.
But the American military, they have ladies in it.
That's bad.
Boo!
And of course I would never suggest that our military is suppressing us in any way.
Once a month.
Even when Donald Trump could point, or I guess the Clintons, whoever was feeling froggy that day, could point their finger at me and I could disappear.
We, uh, and we have ladies in our military and once a month we would have to, no once a quarter, we'd have to sit through a briefing on how to not sexually harass them.
That anecdote was about to get real spicy when it started with we had ladies in our army.
Yeah, we had broads.
It was just like, what's a broad?
Dot, dot, dot.
And I was like, ooh, this anecdote.
It's going to go down some choppy waters.
Then you change it to what's a quarter.
And I was like, oh, nice.
I don't know what this is, but it's better now.
That's why people listen to the Adventures in Hellworld Podcast, because we not only show you how the sausage is made, we like, direct the eye to the being made sausage.
One of the things that makes me laugh so much about this whole idea of like, the American military recently became woke, or blah blah blah, is...
I have a friend who's my age, and I'm in my mid-40s, and one day that guy and one of his buddies were playing poker at the table, and they were talking about how the female drill sergeant they had when they were in the army was really strict with them and really tough and busted their asses.
So it's like, yeah, 20 years ago, women were in the military barking at men to drop and give them 15.
and stuff like that. Yet, like today, like these people still can't wrap their heads around it.
Like even now they're like, oh my god, this is just, oh my, they're integrating the military?
I can't believe it. Yeah, Truman did that in the 40s. Ah, all Americans just gone to hell.
Next thing you're going to tell me they let gays openly serve in the military.
Oh, actually they do. Oh no! I mean, it's just...
Mike, they know that women serve in the military.
They also know that their uniform is like a camouflaged sports bra and like a coat over it that's always buttoned up, like, just to where the belly button is.
Oh my god.
And the male attire is like camo cargo pants, no shirt, covered in oil, redhead pant.
And a bow and arrow.
We- Uh, your weapons can change depending on the situation.
Oh, okay.
You can change your- Oh, it's like, you can change your class or job.
Yeah.
And that changes the weapons.
Yeah, you could go from using one type of gun to another type of gun to maybe a bow and arrow if you stumble across like an archery range.
Yeah.
It just seems like gun would be better.
I don't know, maybe that's just me.
Yeah, but your level of gratuitous nudity can never change.
If you see a shirt, you can't put it on.
Sorry.
Absolutely not.
And the most important part is that if you see the floating metal capsules, you shoot them, but that will upgrade your gun.
You'll get spread shot.
So good.
I mean, it's hard to go wrong with spread shot.
Yes, absolutely.
I like ricochet shot.
And how's this for a segue?
That is The Truth, because get it?
Truth is the name of Donald Trump's new free speech social media platform that just launched, and we are obliged to talk about such things because of the fucking pact we made with Satan.
So let's talk about the buttery smooth launch of Truth, the social media platform of Donald Trump and free speech everywhere.
How's it going, Mike?
Are you on Truth?
Uh, I have attempted to get on Truth.
I have yet to be successful.
I hope that at some point in the near future my account will actually happen so I can begin to- Have you even gotten your number?
I have not gotten my number.
It's gone that poorly for me that I literally just filled out the paperwork, hit the button, and I haven't received anything.
I think I did everything right up to this point, so question mark?
Hopefully at some point in the near future I'll get a number.
Hopefully I will, uh, cause I didn't do all the work that a lot of other people
did where they were able to actually dig in and find the, um, actual beta that
was being worked on by the team.
And, uh, those people were able to get in and register accounts too.
They were able to register like real Donald Trump and other very Trumpy names.
And, um, very Trumpy names.
Yeah, and they also found a... what was I going to say?
They found someone that was like celebrating Pinochet, the Chilean dictator, who was just like posting up a storm there.
Yeah, so everything's gone very good.
The problem with the Truth launch so far is that it's just been too successful.
That would be an absolutely accurate statement.
On top of that, you have the whiners and babies, like the aforementioned guy on Gab who was trying to get some attention by being like, hey, Truth Social wouldn't let me post my stuff about how I want everyone that was involved in the vaccine to face a death penalty.
So between the fact that Truth is quote-unquote not real free speech and also isn't working, there's a bunch of problems going on with the platform.
The one thing I will say that is in its favor was apparently for about a week before this soft launch happened, there was talk that Truth was going to be a paid-for app where you're going to have to spend five bucks a week for the right to be in a Nazi echo chamber, but that appears to not be true.
So, good on Truth to not make people have to pay the big bucks for this nonsense.
The experience so far seems like it would be great.
Yeah!
Who wouldn't want to pay $5 a month for a thing that doesn't work?
Definitely on Apple, right?
Uh, it's on Apple, but it's not on Android.
Like, literally, I've seen so many QAnon promoters saying, like, posting, like, the sadness memes, like Wolverine looking at a picture, or the guy in various states of loneliness staring off in the distance, and all the captions are, me when I see all my iOS friends on Truth, and I'm an Android.
So, like, there's a...
There is a lot of not-greatness going on.
Go ahead, people behind Truth, just fire it up on Android, too.
I'm sure that'll really help all your stability issues.
Yeah, I'm sure it won't flame out even harder in that situation.
Absolutely not.
How else are they going to handle the load of 40 million users or whatever?
that they're blaming it. I mean, 420 million users are trying to be on Truth
right now according to Donald Trump. Everybody, everyone in the United States,
including us, as we're speaking, is trying to fire up our Truth accounts.
You Yeah, there's nothing anyone wants more than the truth in the sense that the truth is a poorly working social media platform that has been done like a million other times in the form of Parler and Gab and Telegram.
This one is actually affiliated with Trump, right?
Yes, this is actually Trump's thing.
Don Jr.
retweeted, posted on Twitter what was quote-unquote the first post on Truth from Trump.
And it was basically just, hey everybody, it's your favorite president!
Join me on Truth Social!
Give me your Bitcoin or whatever money is on the internet.
I've been hearing so much good talk about these apes.
I want the apes.
Give me your apes.
I just want to grift harder because I do not think I can get elected again.
Oh God.
I like that people keep trying to tell Trump that the internet is an easy way for him to make money off of his name and because he's just like a dumb old man he couldn't wrap his head around it.
He was like, it just doesn't make any sense to me.
How do I make any money off of this internet thing?
And people are just like, so many ways!
Yeah, it's so easy.
There's just, like, the easiest one is merch.
But then if we put them in your echo chamber, like, they have to just give you money directly.
Yeah, it's like if you're already famous, making money on the internet is just peasy peasy.
Yeah, I mean, he could literally just sign his name off to all kinds of scams and just get even more money.
But for some reason, this seems to be something that he is incapable of pulling off.
I mean, the man who gave us Trump University and Trump Steaks, unable to make a buck off something?
So weird.
I don't believe it.
Trump was just waiting for Right Now to launch because he knew the New York Times was going to prove once and for all that he was never Q. Remember?
Remember when some people thought that they were getting the words out of high itself?
It was pretty funny, those people.
They're just like, oh yeah, I'm sure that's what the president or anyone even remotely close to the president has time to be doing this.
Like, Q-larp bullshit.
Look, we got a publicly available picture of this pin.
Actually, I actually have seen a few QAnon people talking about how, like, now that Trump has a platform again, he could finally make the, my fellow Americans, the Storm is Upon Us post, even though Q very much specified to look towards Twitter for that post.
There are people who are just willing to fudge the numbers a little to allow Trump to declare the Storm is Upon Us via Truth Social.
It needs to be on Twitter, because I know for a fact that Twitter has the Rock People's Eyebrow GIF.
Which is gonna accompany the post, so people really know.
Oh man.
So it's just a shitshow, it's not working, and it's not available on Android, which a lot of the cuckoos use.
Yeah.
I love Mike's confirmation of his facts.
Yeah, it's fucking terrible.
It's an absolute shit show.
I mean, there's nothing good to say about it because it doesn't have an audience, it doesn't work, and hilariously, the funniest part about it was that our boy Torbs Like when Truth launched, he was like, I'm proud of President Trump for launching this thing and striking a blow against the tech oligarchs of Silicon Valley.
Hurrah!
And then like five hours later, he's like, oh yeah, Truth Social sucks.
I knew it was going to, I knew it was going to flat graduate burn.
Fuck that place.
And then he immediately posted that stupidest thing about, I got banned for speaking truth on truth and blah, blah, blah.
He just couldn't wait.
He was just chomping at the bit to be able to kick Trump when he was down, when this thing crashed and burned.
It was just like... You know who might have helped with their fucking platform issues?
Probably some people from Silicon Valley.
I'm just gonna throw that out there.
I hear those guys like money.
Yeah, maybe there's a reason why that tends to be a place where a lot of people get their talent from.
It's so weird.
I don't know, it's so weird.
Hey, why would you go to the people who know how to do this shit to try to find people who know how to do this shit?
I mean... I can't wait until they just try to make their own, like, Confederate Internet or whatever.
Confederate Internet!
That's like literally all fucking, that's all they talk about on Gab is the quote-unquote the parallel economy.
They're just always talking about how we're gonna create our own like PayPal, our own like Craigslist, our own like everything that used to, everything the normies use we're gonna create Nazi version of it and that's how we're gonna like win the Great War between normies and Nazis.
It's like I don't actually think you guys can do any of this.
No, they got it.
I mean, they're just setting themselves up to constantly be playing catch-up with people that just have significantly more capital than them.
Just a touch.
We're gonna make our own Twitter after Twitter's already been a thing for like fucking 15 years.
Finally, we'll strike!
And now they're just like, oh shit, we have to start working on a TikTok too?
What is this?
Anyway, what's the Nazi version of a flossing dance?
I leave that question up to you, the listener, while I implore Mike Rains to play our question mail bag bump.
And I will do that rather than to dare answer that question.
Our listeners got questions, we got answers.
It's time for Q and A. So we open with Paste, or Pat C, with a Twitter bird emoji also on there.
Can we set up a petition to recognize Queen Ramona as our rightful new world leader?
If you don't know who Queen Ramona is, she is a lunatic QAnon promoter who has declared herself to be the sovereign ruler of Canada.
This obviously has come into a little bit of contact with reality given the fact that everybody in the QAnon universe has been ranting and raving about Justin Trudeau being the sovereign leader of Canada and also a very bad person.
So, uh, the Queen... So, is she, like, claiming Canada by birthright?
Yes!
That's pretty much her shtick, is that she is like, I am the rightful Queen of Canada, this nation is mine by birthright, and you all need to acknowledge and accept this.
I'm not crazy, right?
Like, like, cuck liberals do not have this sort of phenomenon in their sphere, right?
People that are, like, detached from reality in this kind of way.
Like, at least not in earnest.
Like, you know, I feel like Vermin Supreme is probably a pretty liberal dude, but that's a different kind of weird that this is.
That's like the performance art, and this is like either a bizarre mental illness thing, or a grift, or some intersection of the two.
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't know of any leftists who actually work this angle where they're like, by divine right, I am actually the ruler of France.
I am like the direct descendant of Napoleon.
And because these governments were illegitimately elected, I am supreme ruler of this nation.
I don't know... You can also support trans rights.
Yes!
That would be so great.
But yeah, I mean, it's just so funny.
Anytime conservatives want to make fun of liberals, I just sort of want to point to any number of these type of people that sprung up from their ideals and just be like, look at what you've made.
You should feel ashamed for this.
You should be ashamed of yourself.
Canada belongs to the people.
No one woman could own all of Canada.
So what's her narrative?
How did she get banished to regular people?
When did her powers as Queen of Canada awaken?
Her origin story about why she is Queen now, I have never delved that deep into it because she was basically a small potato for a really long period of time.
And then she started becoming very mainstream and I was gonna be like, yeah, we need to have a segment to talk about her and all this stuff.
And then the Trucker Convoy thing kind of bigfooted her back down to obscurity because her act just didn't play very well with the Trucker Convoy thing because She couldn't come out and say, the truckers are right, and they have won, and they have named me queen.
Because the truckers were like, who are you?
We're not, no, we're not working for some weird lady to declare herself monarch.
We want Trudeau to resign so the right-wing parties in Canada can take over the government.
We didn't sign up for your weird version of QAnon grift.
It doesn't get more right-wing than me, darling!
If only, if only Ramona had worked that angle, maybe she could have been bigger.
Maybe she could have been big time, but sadly... I'm the most conservative there is!
I'm just letting you know.
No, I'm real pumped out that we don't get to know her secret origin story of how she's a queen.
I'll have to dig into it for next week's podcast.
I'll ask people who are more on the ball about Queen Ramona, about exactly how this whole character developed and became a thing that got traction on the internet for a moment and then crashed and burned as hard as it possibly could.
I hope it ends with her calming the Great Spirit Moose or whatever to prove that her blood contains the power of the ruler of Canada.
Great Spirit Moose.
She bleeds maple.
Yeah, she bleeds syrup.
She's actually- She goes through Canadian stigmata.
She is both photosynthetic like a leaf and bleeds moose blood, so she's got it all.
She just bleeds all of the Canadian exports.
What was it, Molson or Moulton?
Something like a beer that comes out of there?
Yeah, and Timmy Horton's, all that good stuff.
Oh yeah, Timbo's!
Timmy's!
Let's get some Timbits!
We're just okay.
That sounds very Canadian to me.
I think she's got a point.
Yes.
We're so deep in this mail.
I know.
I'm pulling ourselves away from this question.
Thank you for the question.
The question is over.
We're answering a question.
Oh man.
It's like...
It's like Inception, we just went too deep and somebody had to rip us out from reality or whatever.
Yes!
It's like we're flatlining.
Yes!
So, Pean Dickwhistle, why won't this guy show up during the Big Dickanon segment, asks, what kind of fried chicken is the best fried chicken, white meat or dark meat?
Also, will Wendy Rogers ever give up the grift?
The answer to that last question is no.
But for the first question, I really, I like dark meat better, but I'm not picky.
Chicken's just good always.
Drumsticks are dark meat, so dark meat.
So, I'm weird in that I do enjoy white meat better generally, but I'm a drumstick guy.
So, I'm sort of just happy either way.
I'm trying to have it all the ways.
If we're just talking about purely as a flavor experience, I do think I prefer basic white meat with crispy outside fried chicken.
Quite good.
I love the accessibility of a drumstick.
So easy to eat.
Yes.
One-handed, easy peasy.
Nature's meat popsicle.
Exactly, exactly.
I mean, I feel like a lot of things could probably take that claim.
Yeah, pork ribs.
I've heard those called meatsicles before.
How about literally any penis?
That's what I was getting at, right?
I don't get it.
Explain it to me.
I'm gonna have to end this question too.
God.
Okay, I feel like we're dead.
We got to the bottom of it.
So, Cleodora Silvestri, who doesn't own any NFTs, asks, are the American anti-globalists aware of the irony of appearing in a Canadian court and demanding for the U.S.
Constitution to be applied to another country?
Uh, they don't get it.
What the fuck is she talking about?
I got lost.
There have been people demanding their rights to free speech and assembly, all these constitutionally protected rights that are in America, but the Canadian Charter that created the country of Canada doesn't explicitly have any of these rights.
There's no First Amendment in Canada.
I have seen numerous QAnon promoters pissing and moaning about how they got all the photos of the Mounties having the horses go through the crowds and talking about people being trampled by them.
And these people are like, oh yeah, I back the blue, but I only back police that follow the Constitution.
And it's like, well, in Canada, they don't have to follow the Constitution because it doesn't apply there.
It's not part of their system of government.
They have to follow the Canadian Constitution.
Yeah, they have their own rules.
That's what sort of makes them a different country.
I just love this idea.
They just think Canada is like an adjunct of America.
And it's like, you have to follow our rules!
It's real easy to get along with our Canadian brothers and sisters because they all speak perfect English.
And it's just like, ooh, bro.
Like, the large parts of this country are very French.
Yes.
A shoved little girl.
Lots of cats have that name.
God.
But yeah, I've seen a lot of dumb-dumbs have been demanding American rights be granted to Canadian citizens, which is not a thing that has to happen or be done, because they're not playing in our sandbox.
They're in their sandbox.
And if you, as an American, were dumb enough to go to Canada and do stuff there, You're going to be held accountable to their laws, not ours!
So, the whole play stupid games, win stupid prizes thing, that's what you get.
Well, when Trump is back at the White House, we're just going to start annexing parts of Canada that we like.
It will be a savvy move on his part.
Remember when we started holding all those children in cages on the border?
Why?
Because they weren't American citizens.
Boom.
Think about it.
No, I don't want to think about that.
And besides, they weren't white, so why would QAnon people think they have any rights?
And again, not American citizens.
Oh god.
Don't trouble their simple minds with such commentary.
Oh, please don't.
I mean, think about it this way.
This is my Music Man style pitch for this to conservatives.
Consider this.
You are concerned about Mexicans taking jobs from Americans, but if we bring the glory of America to them, I'm here for this.
I'm liking the cut of your jib.
I'm getting it.
Doesn't that sound nice?
Yeah.
A bunch of Americans and a bunch of jobs that you would not be caught dead doing because
it's very hard.
I'm here for this.
I'm liking the cut of your jib.
I'm getting it.
I think this is a good call.
So we just need some Mexican separatists on the border to start claiming their lands are
America.
And then Biden can come in and start nibbling away at Mexico.
And we can just start taking little chunks of it.
And Trump will have to call that savvy and genius because he already has done so.
He set a precedent.
And Donald Trump isn't a hypocrite.
He would never go back on his word based on the situation.
Never.
Never not once.
We should start running the false flags now.
We can send in the guy that plays Reacher in the new show Reacher.
And we could just throw like a poncho over him and throw him down there to just be like, yeah, you know what?
I think it'd be great if us Mexicans, because I am of course very Mexican, we should all just become part of America.
Wouldn't that be great?
Exactly.
So, uh, thank you for the question.
And none of them say anything because he's speaking English.
Yes, exactly.
They're just like, what the fuck is up with this guy?
Like, why is he down here just talking to no one in English?
Talking to no one in English.
That's our podcast.
That's the subtitle of the podcast.
Yeah.
Talking to no one in English.
If our individual episodes had names, that would be a great candidate for this one.
Talking to no one in English.
Yeah, if we went with the Taskmaster style of every episode just as a quote from the show, that would be this one.
So our next question is from Pancake Peasant who asks, have any of you seen a cursed fusion of cultures between mini painting and QAnon?
To that I can say I have not seen any Warhammer 40k or other stuff.
Yes, I have.
I can't say that I have, but it definitely has to exist, right?
I mean, the idea of, like, an uber-religious, just hyper-masculine, big chunky armor, like, warfare cult government must really appeal to a lot of them.
Yeah, I'm sure that that horror is out there somewhere, but I have not gone looking for it, so thankfully I have not found it.
But at some point in my life... There's at least one Warhammer team out there named Let's Go Brandon, for sure.
Already.
I mean, there was a big tournament in Spain where a Nazi actually invaded it.
He just wore a shirt, a Nazi shirt, and they couldn't kick him out.
Like, per their own rules.
Oh God, you need to amend your rules pretty quickly.
Gotti!
Just get to be openly Nazi for a day.
What a treat for that guy.
Yeah.
Because you know that guy looked at the Terms of Service for the convention he was going to and was like, oh!
They left that door open!
Time for me to rush through it!
And then the convention was like, fuck, really?
Goddammit.
Yeah, just trying to get into any event that they're even remotely interested in, just pouring over the rules and regulations and just being like, ah, sick!
Loophole!
Time to be a Nazi in public!
Yeah, great.
Oh, boy.
Like, that is just the saddest bullshit.
The most desperate cry for attention.
I mean, he probably ghostwrites Wendy Rogers tweets on the internet.
Yeah, so that was a weirdly dark question that I didn't think could possibly go down that road, but it did it.
So thank you for the question.
Klutz Zero asks, what are the odds we get a trucker convoy from the US to Ukraine?
I don't know that the physical possibilities that exist, but I was reading a lot of people talking about the various ways that America and the West can fight back against the Russians.
And they were talking about seizing all of the various Russian oligarchs' yachts and doing stuff with those yachts.
So I would say that doing something like that, where you repossess these trucks and we give them to Ukraine for help in rebuilding their nation after whatever happens in this conflict between them and Putin.
Like, we could do stuff like that, we could give the Ukrainians a bunch of yachts, uh, all kinds of good stuff.
Give them a bunch of yachts?
Yeah, we should just steal Russian oligarchs' yachts and just give them to the Ukrainians and just be like, hey, like, a lot of you may, like, be homeless or suffer like other displacement due to this
conflict you just live on board this yacht for a while probably could
like accommodate like two or three hundred of you comfortably so you can
just live on this Russian oligarchs yard which he no longer owns because we're
taking their shit yeah that accommodate two or three hundred people
What sort of insane yacht is this?
It's like a cruise ship.
Yeah, I've seen a bunch of these yachts that are like 150 footers.
I mean, I'm just spitballing here.
Two or three hundred people?
My God.
Let's go for it.
Let's quit the yacht.
It's like a carnival cruise over here.
Carnival cruise.
The over here is what broke me.
That was just over here.
Hey, forget about it.
Yeah, exactly.
I'm walking here.
I am the one who is walking here.
So, I don't know that we're going to be able to get those trucks over to Ukraine vis-a-vis the current idiots that are driving them, but hey, civil asset forfeiture is terrible and we shouldn't be doing it, but if it did have to happen, I can't think of a more worthy target than the current idiots.
Or we could just get cargo ships.
to get on board so that it's just like we truck like Like as close to the ocean as possible
Like little little front truck wheelies in in the in the surf and then we boat as close to shore as possible
And that way we make a chain to Ukraine because what are what our cargo ships is not the trucks of the sea. Yes
Oh boy.
There's that one that's off the coast of Germany, or not Germany, Spain or whatever, that's like on fire and filled with Porsches.
That one's great.
Oh god.
One of my favorite shipping boat of the moment.
That sounds like a wonderful disaster, and if we didn't have the world currently being insane.
Remember when that boat got stuck in the Suez Canal and that was a news story?
Oh, what a quaint time to be alive that was.
Where's the heroic boat trucker that's pulling that protest off?
Yeah, that's going to be great.
Some new, uh... End the mandate!
Some block of the Suez again!
Woo!
That would be awesome.
I feel like somebody would probably put a violent end to that person.
Oh, yeah, that guy... It's not going to go well for that guy.
That's going to end real poorly.
Yeah, that would be some poor engagement on that one.
Yeah.
Any more questions?
We have a couple more.
The Nerdy Horror Fan asks, Was Trump's Putin's plan all along like a lot of people think?
Did he make America divided and weak, push the white supremacists and weirdos to the surface, watch the chaos unfold, then try to invade Ukraine because his puppet isn't in place anymore?
That's a lot to think about.
I I would think that what probably actually happened was Putin was very happy that Trump won.
He was very happy that he was like inflaming the American right.
But Putin probably thought Trump was going to win re-election because like American presidents like always win re-election.
It was like 1992 was the last time an American president didn't win reelection.
That was a long time ago.
So he's like, yeah, Trump's a moron.
Uh, he could potentially fuck this up, but Bush was a moron and he won reelection.
So Biden's milk toast.
My boy will be in there and then bing, bang, boom.
I'll get this done.
He'll roll over for me on Ukraine.
And then Biden wins and Putin's just like, fuck, I wanted to take Ukraine, but now this guy's in.
Fuck it.
I'll do it anyways.
Let's go for it.
See, I'm not even convinced that Putin, that this Ukraine invasion really had anything to do with whatever designs Russia had on getting Trump into the White House.
It just seems sort of likely to me that maybe Russia was interested in getting Trump into the White House.
What is going on over there?
We doing pills?
I knocked a bottle of pills- I knocked my bottle of vitamin D pills off my counter.
You're doing some incredible pill-related foley work over there.
It was like right in front of the mic.
It was so crisp and clear.
It was good.
It was good.
Okay, but yeah, so I feel like Russia probably just wanted to trumpet the house to just sort of generally weaken us.
And that this Ukraine thing, like, maybe it was at the works, maybe not.
Trump in the house is the new Disney movie coming up?
Yes!
I just don't think the response is very much different either way, right?
Like, America can't get away with doing nothing.
So they would just be like, we're gonna levy sanctions and tell you that we really don't like ya.
Cuz that's all America's ever gonna do in a spot like this.
No one is going to stop Russia from taking over Ukraine.
Once Putin decided he really wanted to make that happen, it was a foregone conclusion.
Cuz who's sending troops into that fight?
Nobody.
So it's just like, so either way, like even if Trump was at the White House, he couldn't just be like, I think Putin is great, and I think taking over foreign countries is awesome.
He can say that now because he's not technically president.
As president, his people would advise him to just be like, we condemned this, time for sanctions, and then sanctions would happen and Russia would now have more Russia in it.
Now with 100% more Ukraine.
So yeah, it's, it is of a piece.
I don't exactly know what the, it seems like the whole thing with Ukraine, that this is like, Putin's like winging it in a lot of ways because he was going to invade, then it didn't happen, then he was withdrawing, then he didn't withdraw, now they're just grabbing small sections of Ukraine that are quote-unquote part of separatist movements.
So it doesn't really feel like there's a very Like, cogent plan across the board here for the Russian invasion.
So how this turns out is going to be interesting, to say the least.
The last question is, Reverend Xenofax says, judging by his rambling speech, Vladdy Daddy has a satie.
What's the chance he directly invokes QAnon or QLore to try to rile up support from the chuds and internet brain boomers?
Zero percent.
I don't think Vlad's that desperate for American right-wing support that he would go down that path.
He definitely knows about it.
Sure, but I don't think he gives a fuck about it.
It is sadly a global phenomenon at this point, but it is really centralized in America for the most part.
Like, again, diplomatically, America's hands are tied in a lot of ways with what's going on here.
He doesn't need a ton of support for this maneuver.
If he needed support for this maneuver, he wouldn't have tried it.
Yeah.
He's doing what he's doing now because he knows he can get away with it.
Yeah, pretty much.
And that's going to be the issue here, is just...
How much does he try to take of Ukraine and what level of pushback from the West involving these sanctions and all that kind of stuff?
How much pushback makes him decide, okay, I don't want all of Ukraine?
Or, I mean, the fact that, like, The more of Ukraine he tries to take, the more actual fighting has to happen, and that's just bad for all sides.
I sort of feel like people are forgetting that he did a dry run of this a few years ago.
He did this in Georgia, he did this in Crimea, I mean, a nation thinks about joining NATO, Russia invades that nation.
Threatens to, so that NATO backs off, and then they do.
Like, wash, rinse, repeat.
Yeah, this is a recurring theme in Russia and its neighboring nations.
It's why, like, Poland is currently buying every gun they can get their hands on, because Poland's been down this road before.
I mean, so they know what it's like to be next door to Russia, and it ain't good.
So, yeah.
Yeah.
So, and of course, our final question, as always, is what are you guys looking forward to?
So, a bunch of video games are out.
The big 1.5 update came out for Cyberpunk, and my girlfriend asked me to wait to play Horizon until she's around so I don't get to play it as much, so I've been back into Cyberpunk.
I was saying in our chat that I was like, Man, it looks so good and it's running so smooth, and then immediately it crashed after I sent that message.
So, I am still looking forward to it.
It is a bunch of fun, but it's still cyberpunk.
They've reworked a bunch of things, and I just love that world so much.
So I'm looking forward to getting more back into it, as weird as that is to say.
I don't know exactly what I have planned for the rest of my day today, but I'm just sort of excited for the day today, because currently it is, temperature-wise, like 65, and then as the evening goes on it is going to cool down back to like 20.
So it's just like, today's this weird, random, like, high-spiking, just feel-good spring weather, 60-degree day that will transition into a more regular-for-February winter night.
And that vibe has sort of got me excited to be doing stuff today.
Not sure where that stuff is going to be.
Yeah, I was out and about this morning and it was like, oh wow, it's spring!
This is really awesome.
I was definitely a big fan of just like... Well, good for you.
Yeah, it was just awesome to have warmth this time of year.
Oh, never you worry.
We're supposed to be getting bad weather this weekend.
Oh, I know!
We're gonna get up to a foot of snow on Friday.
It's like so crazy.
It's like, spring!
Back to winter!
Boom!
So, so wild.
So, uh...
Piggybacking off what Sarge said, I'm looking forward to more Horizon Forbidden West, because I loved Horizon Zero Dawn, and I have been playing, and I'm very happy.
So, like, this game has been excellent so far, and I'm just gonna be addicted until I am done playing the game, and then I'll be sad the game is over.
That's basically it.
So, yeah, but it's been It's everything I've wanted.
It's better than cats.
I want to see it again and again.
All of those dumb quotes and stupidity.
Better than cats.
Yes.
So yeah, that's what I'm looking forward to.
What a bunch of fucking nerds on this podcast.
You nerds.
The biggest of nerds.
You know it.
What a couple of nerds.

You can also support Mr. Mike Rains by buying his book, which is available currently on the Kindle.
What's up with your book, Mr. Mike Rains?
My book is Exposing Q. It's pretty much the If You Went Through My Q Is Always Wrong thread on Twitter.
If you listen to the podcast in its early days with these two guys, we were going over the drops.
The vast meat of the book is just going over all of the really dumb things Q said over the course of his time on the internet.
And then after he left, how the movement struggled to continue moving on.
Without their alleged leader, because as I explained in the book, like pretty much halfway through the Q drops, he goes from being a leader to being a cheerleader, who's just like, Hey, guys, everything's going great!
Watch Hannity!
Yay!
Q. So it's just watching Q fall from being the guy that was like planning the sabotage of North Korean nuclear test sites to being, Hey, check out Hannity!
It's really funny.
And I just think that like, So many people think that like, oh, it's so mysterious.
Oh, the cryptic messages of Q. What do they really mean?
And it's like, no, you read it.
It's just plain English.
He's just a dum-dum who gets so many things wrong.
That's basically what the book's about.
It's just like, it's like that South Park episode where they flashed across the screen.
This is what Mormons really believe.
Scientology.
Scientology, right.
This is what QAnon actually is following.
This is their idiot leader.
This is how dumb he is.
That's my goal with what I'm trying to do here.
And one more time, what's the name of that one?
Exposing Q. Exposing Q by Mike Rades.
You can find it on Kindle, and you better believe that we will continue to talk about it and tell you about it when it becomes available physically in meatspace so that you can get your chunky phalanges on it.
Chunky phalanges.
Oh yeah, that's the way we do it here in Hellworld.
Hey, but if that's not your speed, if you don't like that, or at the very least you don't want to put your money towards that, but you're like, man, I have this money, but I'd really love to do some good with it, and I don't want to give it to these guys because they keep talking about my phalanges, you can go ahead and give that money to Love146.org.
They're an organization whose vision is the end of child trafficking and exploitation, which, as I pointed out before, is a thing that Q seems to be about, but never really seems to do anything about.
So fuck those clowns and give your money to love146.org to actually put a dent in it.
Thanks again, as always, to DJ Minimal Effort for the use of our opening theme song.
It is a cool bop, and that guy is still too cool for social media, so there's no way for you, the listener, to thank him, but I, the podcast presenter, will do so.
Our buddy Frosty, you can reach at FrostyVO on Twitter.
He is the voice of Q when we need it, but you recognize him better as the voice of all of our drops and our content warning, and pretty much anytime we need a voice aside from ours to do a thing, we rely on Frosty.
So find him on Twitter at FrostyVO.
