	the next one. Thank you.
	Bye.
	Listener discretion advised.
	Hello, everybody.
	I am Mike Rains, a.k.a.
	Poker and Politics, and welcome to another episode of Adventures in Hellworld.
	This week, I am joined, as always, by Haley, a.k.a.
	Arizona Right Watch.
	Hello, everybody.
	We are having a good week, right?
	It's a good week.
	Are we having a good week?
	I think so.
	I'm having a good week.
	Okay.
	And the mysterious El.
	Wagwan, homies!
	I'm back!
	It's me!
	I'm back from my music festival.
	Who'd you see?
	Nostalgia Tingz.
	Okay, so now that it's done and dusted, I don't have to worry about any creepos showing up to it to harass me, potentially, because we have a powerful reach.
	I get back from a music festival called MAGFest that happened in our nation's capital this past weekend.
	Oh, did you storm it?
	Uh, yeah.
	Oh, dude, me and like 25,000 other nerds stormed the DC area to listen to video game music and get drunk, sometimes dangerously so.
	Not me, but there's always a few people where you're just like, wow, they are like, rap boy party race waster right now, and that's not good.
	For instance, a guy in a, well, I didn't want to say that because I think that some people take offense to that term now.
	Oh, I'm so sorry.
	I apologize.
	I'm sorry.
	Hey, you know what?
	Your exasperation, I feel like you were allowed to express it, and I'm not supposed to.
	So I'm just like, dude, I'm on board with getting rid of that phrase.
	I never liked that phrase to begin with.
	It certainly doesn't perfectly describe a thing.
	Okay, but yeah, some dude came up to me in like a fucking blue slash purple dragon suit, and he just had a big gallon of like blue slash purple dragon liquid.
	He just came up to me and went, Was it good?
	And I was like, okay. And then I had some of her jungle juice. Was it good? Was it spiked? Yeah, it was actually
	pretty, pretty decent. You know, it was like, yeah, it was like fruit, some sort of fruit flavor, the way you would
	expect jungle juice to be.
	Anyway, to answer your question, I didn't really get to see a ton of music performances because I was doing other shit, but I saw Samus, who is a rapper, and she always does like, she really vibes with the audience and like, pretty frequently just like starts, like has meltdowns on the stage, which sounds like a gimmick or anything, but it's just like... We love real people.
	Yeah, she's really about that life and shit.
	And then I saw the Proto Men, who are a Mega Man-inspired rock opera.
	And I've seen them many, many times over the course of, like, 13 years.
	And over the course of 13 years, I have seen them go from being, like, good musicians to being really good musicians.
	So it, like, really tickles me, Peg, that all these songs that I've noted I've been singing along with them to for, like, over a decade now are about Mega Man.
	Mega Man is like a post-dystopia, like fucking future Wasteland.
	Yeah, it's really wild stuff.
	Yeah, Maxmas is a great time.
	I've been to it many times and it's always a lot of fun.
	But it's one of those things where it's like, it's a lot of fun provided that you don't mind being around thousands of drunk people, like shoulder-to-shoulder nerd nonsense, like people in big fucking costumes blocking hallways and taking photos and shit.
	Look, there's some of my friends that I need to warn, who are just interested in maybe going, that I need to warn and just be like, look, it's a good time, but I don't think it's for you, mate.
	I think you're gonna hate it, because I think you hate people.
	It's like all people, and they're not exactly behaving their best, because a lot of them are fucked up.
	It's been fine, but it's an acquired taste.
	Yeah, yeah.
	It's definitely not for, like, you know, it's just not for all my friends.
	Although I did get to party with one of the boys who listens to the show.
	The last time I told an anecdote about this boy on the show, I left his name out of it, and then he was just like...
	You didn't name me!
	So I'll say a shout out to Jay, who I hung out with this weekend.
	Shout out Jay!
	Long time listener to the show, personal friend of mine, good dude all around.
	He was interested in joining us for a single night of this debauchery and we took him out.
	We showed him the Danny DeVito shrine and all the other stuff.
	So yeah, shout out to Jay.
	It was nice seeing him.
	He said that he loved the show, but he also got to interrogate Sarge, who was also there, as to why he was not on the show anymore.
	Which was great.
	He was just like, what the fuck happened to you, bud?
	Oh, he's not a Haley fan.
	He's a Sarge fan.
	No, no, no.
	He started off, he was, he, at the very least, he started off by laying the track to avoid that question by saying that he still loved the show, but he was just like, sorry, I've been listening the whole time.
	But that new bitch sucks.
	No, I'm just kidding.
	You were there for three years, then you just vanished and they never really talked about why, so what's up?
	So we told him exactly why.
	I'm kidding.
	Just like, work commitment.
	Work commitment, that was the real reason.
	That was it.
	It was like, he got a new job.
	Yeah.
	Oh, so on the other side of things, because Elle had, like, the good times happen, I actually had a hilarious commercial pop up in my field of vision yesterday, where I got to see that Jeff Dunham, mortal enemy of the podcast, has a new comedy tour called Jeff Dunham, still not canceled.
	And I was like, oh my god.
	What's he making fun of you now?
	What'd you say?
	I said, what, is he gonna make fun of Jewish people now?
	What's his latest racist puppet?
	I have to imagine that every time he goes on a tour, he has to introduce a new racist puppet.
	Ooh, or maybe like a trans puppet this time around.
	Oh no.
	I bet he could really get some mileage out of that.
	You're so right.
	It's going to be an anti-trans puppet bit.
	But that's even assuming that he's still making new puppets.
	He could just be coasting on the fucking racist puppets that he's had the whole time.
	It'll be Ahmed, uh... Yeah, let's just put a bow on her like Ms.
	Batman.
	Of course that guy's coming back.
	Donald Trump is still in contention for being President of the United States again.
	He is going to be the nominee, definitely.
	A large portion of our country sucks and are real dumb and their taste is fucking horrible.
	Both in their moral choices and their pop media choices.
	They just kind of suck across the board.
	What I'm really enjoying in that sphere of things is watching them just seed everything that is good in America to the libs.
	It's so weird.
	Like, you would think that football, the ultra-masculine, brutal sport that Liberals should not enjoy it, and conservatives should be like, yeah!
	It's literally like a simulation of war on the field.
	And now the conservatives are just giving us football.
	They're just like, ooh, football!
	This Travis Kelsey guy is dating Taylor Swift and getting vaccinated!
	Football sucks!
	Ooh, football!
	And it's like, you want to give us the most popular sport in America, and you want to make this guy who's Literally just a random Midwestern meathead who happens to be a Greek god, Adonis of a human being, who's now dating Taylor Swift.
	You want to make him our champion?
	Fine.
	Sounds good to me.
	I'm in.
	I am okay with it.
	Also, fuck most popular America, I'm sure that overall it's still the most profitable league in the world.
	Like, I want to say that it's, like, number one on the list of profitability, which, even if Republicans didn't care about anything else, you do think that they, like, as capitalists, they would fucking really care about what the most profitable thing is.
	Oh, that's what I love.
	They're all just like, oh, the NFL is falling apart.
	Go woke, go broke.
	And it's like literally every year the NFL signs some new streaming deal or content package for $11 trillion.
	It's just, yeah, the NFL is really hurting for money.
	Like when they put those end racism slogans in the back of the end zone, that was the death of the NFL.
	They're not making money hand over fist every single day.
	Yeah, and also, it's like, well, I mean, we're dealing with people who, at the top, that just, like, can't understand why they're fucking African-American, like, Latinx fucking, like, other marginalized group, like, players are just like, yeah, dude, we support, like, anti-racism, you know?
	Like, let's fucking, I want to make my voice heard battling this cause, because it turns out that, like, It affected me, literally, my entire life.
	And they're just like, shut up and just play the football.
	Shut up and dribble.
	Yeah.
	Oh, God.
	That's proving your point.
	Yeah.
	The new Patriots head coach, Gerard Mayo, who happens to be African-American, at his introductory press conference, someone was like, yo, Gerard Mayo, what's your take on racism?
	He's like, it sucks and I've lived through it.
	And it's a real thing that I've dealt with.
	What's your take on racism?
	I love it.
	It's great.
	Some of the best years of my life were all of them, when I was hated for the color of my skin.
	And, like, literally Fox News and all the right-wingers were like, Patriots hire woke coach?
	Yep.
	It's like, oh god, like, I... He's all about that D.E.I.
	or whatever their fucking dog, like, fucking crazy dog whistle buzzword is.
	Yeah, oh man, I... I didn't even know what, I had to look up what it stood for.
	I was like, what, like, I'm not even on the cutting edge of what they hate anymore?
	That's how far, that's how far, I blame QAnon for that.
	This is a Q, this is a show about QAnon and if I'm behind the tides, it's because QAnon's behind the fucking tides.
	You and the QAnon.
	You're useful for exactly one thing, like alerting me to what conservatives are supposed to be hating at their most crazed... God.
	Speaking of which, it's probably time to get into the actual show proper.
	So let's get in to our Amuse-A-Bouche!
	It's time for a light sampling of insanity.
	Get ready for the Amuse-Bouche.
	I like our first bouche because it sounds like a comic.
	Dom saves the mole kids.
	Who the hell is Dom and who the hell are the mole kids?
	Dom Lucree, nothing like that pedo posting fuck, right?
	That's a good way to start the show.
	Yep.
	Dom Lucree, who is a right-wing grifter who, it's like, it's like so weird who gets like the push in conservative media.
	This is very much like pro-wrestling where a new guy shows up and you're wondering, hey, is this guy any good?
	And suddenly the company just has him winning all his matches.
	The next thing you know, he's holding the secondary title and he's talking shit about the world champion.
	And you're like, bro, this guy's been around for like four months.
	Why, why are you making such a big deal out of him?
	But this, this Dom Lucre guy, Who literally just came out of nowhere, posted child porn on Twitter, got his account suspended, and Elon Musk personally intervened to reopen his account, to let him keep it.
	Which, it's like, why is Elon invested in this guy?
	Why is this guy, like, the new hotness in right-wing conservative griftospheres?
	Okay, I hate that I have to ask this question, but, uh, like, the offensive material in question, was there any sort of, like, was this guy trying to make any sort of argument that it was for Like, did he have any argument as to why he posted it?
	He post- I'm gonna explain this because child sexual abuse material, first of all, I don't think child porn is the correct term.
	Um, but, uh, he posted a very infamous, very infamous, uh, uh, uh, snuff video of a, uh, yeah, a child being tortured, um, and put his watermark over it.
	That's how he censored it.
	He posted it.
	Like, here's proof that pedophilia exists.
	Here's a snuff film.
	So that was his justification?
	Like, here's some proof?
	And it's like, hey, was that on your computer?
	Dude, who's saying it doesn't exist, man?
	And what L is basically asking for is pretty much what Elon did, which Elon was stating, oh, he posted this because he was trying to draw attention to it.
	He was posting it out of the goodness of his heart.
	Oh, sorry, I need to stop you right there.
	Can we not phrase that for what, in this context, for what L is looking for?
	Can we maybe put that as like the question, like the answer to the question that L just posed?
	He's inquiring about...
	Because if anything, you know, if anyone's looking for it, Mike's the one who's giving it to me!
	Mike Rains has always had it!
	I'll flip on you so fast, motherfucker!
	No, I'm just kidding.
	Anyway, yeah, but way to make me sound like a fucking creep.
	We're supposed to do that out of context clip shit with Hailey, not me.
	Got him this week.
	Jay was disappointed that we just sort of organically stopped doing that bit because he was just like, I thought if it got long enough I could edit them together.
	So all this stuff happened.
	Dom gets incredibly popular very quickly for some reason.
	He's hanging out with General Flynn and Liz Crokan and all these terrible people.
	He's the new conspiracy peddling right wing creep du jour.
	And then this story broke about the tunnels under the Jewish Life Center that led to this whole ordeal.
	There were arrests.
	Yep, the most incredible story of all time.
	It's literally, it was the most anti-Semitic bait of all time, though.
	As soon as that popped up, it was like the most Nazi of Nazis were like, all right, let's do this.
	Let's do literal blood libel.
	And I know that that totally sucks shit, but on the other hand, there was that guy with those tweets he got incredibly validated for that I don't know if they're real, but God, I want to live in a world where those tweets are real.
	With a guy who's just like, I keep hearing Yiddish under my house, but I'm on the first floor?
	It sounds like they're digging.
	A couple of months later, a lot of you will be an apology.
	So this first started with Dom claiming that some person in New York's police department gave him materials pending an investigation, and it was a bunch of photos of small children.
	And the implication was that this was somehow child trafficking related.
	And then I believe it was Matt Wallace, another right-wing grifter and Jake
	Shields, who was an incredibly boring MMA fighter who won a bunch of really
	boring decisions in the UFC before he got his ass kicked and they immediately
	fired him because no one wanted to watch him fight because he would just tackle
	people and lay on them for five, for 25 minutes, which was kind of a snooze.
	And so basically Jake Shields left the UFC and became a pilled nut.
	Jake also was like, yeah, Dom sent me the photos too.
	And it's so horrible.
	And Hillary Clinton needs to burn in hell for what she's done.
	And it's just us normal people are sitting here going, is Dom like sharing like C-scam with other right-wing grifters online?
	Shouldn't that be going to law enforcement?
	Should this not be leaking out to just shitbags on social media?
	This seems really scummy.
	The cops gave it to him.
	him. It's totally cool.
	Oh, yeah. Yeah. And so this story then kind of died down for a
	week or so. And now Dom is back. So Dom posted a link from someone who was like, we need to investigate these tunnels
	to find the human traffickers.
	We need like $9,500 to get into this.
	So it was a grip.
	It was just literally a scam.
	They wanted money to do something.
	And now Dom is in New York going basically like through subway tunnels, trying to find the mole children.
	He posted like a minute long teaser video of him going quote unquote into tunnels.
	He found, like, a mattress somewhere.
	Then he found, like, graffiti on a wall.
	Was he doing this with Loren Witski?
	He could be.
	I don't know who else is in the little crew.
	All I know from the teaser video is Dom and other people are walking around.
	They're putting flashlights on graffiti.
	They're showing stuff on the ground.
	And they're like, oh man, we're getting so close to finding the evidence.
	And it's like, no, you're not.
	There's no evidence.
	And the whole point of this is to just Gin up fear.
	Gin up like, oh my god, look, look, there's like sleeping areas.
	That's where the kids were sleeping before they were tortured.
	It's basically The Sound of Freedom meets The Blair Witch Project.
	Like that's what we've got going here.
	And only with The Blair Witch Project constantly requesting more money every few minutes so they can make more of the film to scare you with about nonsense.
	Yeah, and also from a guy who's, you know, distributing C-Zam.
	So like, let's, let's just get him arrested and that'll be the end of that.
	We've got some drama about this.
	Hold on, I'm going to jump in real quick.
	Because it is Loren Witski that's helping him.
	And for those who don't know, Loren Witski is a white supremacist, little Nazi Bitch!
	She's a demon.
	She blames Jews for absolutely everything.
	She's big-time anti-Semite.
	She kind of hangs in the Nick Fuentes circles.
	They're not really like a woman crowd, so she just kind of floats around the white supremacists.
	She was working on the Stu Peters Network for a while, which I'm sure you're all familiar with.
	Um, and, uh, something happened where she's no longer working there.
	Um, and, uh, so, so Jordan Sather was actually calling out Dom LaCrie and, uh, uh, Lauren Witzke for, uh, funding the trip, you know, for, for, for fundraising for the trip.
	And Stu Peters got mad at Jordan Sather for implying that Witski still works for the Stu Peters Network, and he's been kind of going off on Witski and Dom LaCrie saying, like, they're grifters, which is funny because he just had her as her producer, like, a month ago.
	I've been seeing people going at Dom, because again, he's the new hotness, and there are a lot of people going, like, where'd you come from, bro?
	What's going on here?
	And people got a photo of Dom wearing the Eye of Horus as jewelry.
	He's got a Freemason ring on in one photo, and they're like, bro, what's the Freemason ring about?
	What's going on there?
	Someone found some social media posts where he had like fuck Trump merchandise he was selling in 2016 before Don realized getting on the pro-Trump bandwagon is how you grift in America.
	So like there are a bunch of people who think that Don is very much astroturfed and very much just He's playing a bit, basically.
	He's a grifter, he's seen a market need, and he's jumping into that market as the streetwise, black, QAnon-adjacent, right-wing grifter shitbag who's working hard to do that kind of stuff and make money.
	And that's his act.
	He's really bad at it, in the sense that, don't wear Freemason rings, because people will notice that kind of stuff.
	And that's like one of the parts of the Illuminati game, is they exist to tear you down.
	They're always going to find how you're Illuminati.
	Also, aren't some people kind of pissed at him right now?
	He's kind of stirring up a little drama because of the Mr. Beast payout.
	You see that?
	No, no, no.
	Did you not get the Mr. Beast ad?
	No, no, no.
	I have not seen the Mr. Beast ad.
	Oh, wow.
	Yeah, Mr. Beast was doing, like, a test video.
	Like, I'm gonna try to do a video on X, and if it makes good ad money, then I will post my videos on here.
	And he's like, it's not an ad, it's just a natural video.
	And it was getting boosted so hard to, like, everybody as an ad, so a lot of people saw it.
	And he got, like, a payout of, like, $250k for that video and posted it.
	And Dom Lucree kind of freaked out.
	He's like, what the fuck?
	He's like, I get the most impressions on this website and I didn't get this kind of money.
	And he started stirring up drama and I think he got demonetized from the payment program.
	And yeah, a couple of the blue check marks are kind of freaking out because Mr. Beast got all the payout money funneled to him in an effort to keep him on the platform because Elon is so desperate for people to be on the platform.
	Mr. Beast is like a trillionaire.
	This is the saddest thing in the world.
	This is the saddest thing in the world to give Mr. Beast a quarter million dollars and think he would even... I know!
	You think Mr. Beast even feels a tickle for that kind of money?
	What the fuck is wrong with you, Elon?
	Oh my god.
	Let's finally get out of this spiraling web of Dom the Pedo-whatever-his-last-name-is.
	That went blazes.
	I was not expecting that rabbit hole to go as far down as it did, my god.
	Hopefully brighter news ahead for whatever wacky thing is in our next Boost segment.
	Oh, it looks here that Alex Soros watched Trump assassinated.
	Light and breezy.
	Oh no, this is very light and breezy.
	This is hilarious.
	So basically Alex Soros wrote an article... Is that like THE Soroses?
	Yes!
	He's now the Soros.
	He's George Soros' son.
	George has moved the Illuminati to Alex.
	Alex is now the fundraiser and he runs the Illuminati along with Taylor Swift.
	And Alex wrote an article and that article was about how people view crime and inflation as like the two biggest problems that we are facing in society now, and how we can take steps to address these issues.
	And so Alex Soros posts the link to his article, and the crime is reflected by a window with like a hole in it.
	And the inflation is shown as a hand holding money.
	And Laura Loomer, she was the first one, the big time person that was quote-unquote baking this.
	I'm sure Other Nuts gave it to her and then she ran with it.
	Basically, the gist of the conversation was, The hole in the glass is a bullet hole and the money is a sign that we will pay for you to shoot somebody and people looked at the again this is a standard stock image of a hand holding money and people were like
	Oh, if you add up all the dollar amounts in the photo, it adds up to 47.
	When Trump wins this election, he'll be the 47th President of the United States.
	Alex Soros is calling for people to assassinate Donald Trump.
	Then Laura Loomer wrote out this giant thing, because now if you have a blue checkmark, you can write a novella on Twitter.
	Explaining how this was very obviously Alex Soros asking for people to assassinate Donald Trump.
	She even made this really, she made this hilarious point that the first bill shown in the photo in the foreground is that it has a thumb over the middle of it.
	And she was like, it's even putting the thumb on the US president showing that that's what they want to get rid of.
	She has to ignore the fact that it's the $10 bill, and the $10 bill is Alexander Hamilton, who was never the President of the United States.
	But that's where a President goes when it is them, you know?
	Same thing.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Because QAnon has never seen a conspiracy theory too stupid for them.
	They have all jumped in with both feet.
	There is so much.
	Like, people are tallying the FBI.
	Why does Alex Soros have to use, like, a fucking newspaper article to solicit his high-end assassin?
	Um, that's the sort of thing that you would just like get a guy to do.
	You would get one of your cronies to just be like, look, go rustle up the world's greatest assassin and tell them I'll pay him $200 million to assassinate Donald Trump.
	Like, why would you go to a newspaper or like a website or wherever this fucking article was posted?
	So, the logic there is that the Patriots have access to email, phone, text, everything.
	They literally know all the Deep State's moves before they even plan them.
	The only way the Deep State can communicate with each other is by sending coded messages on social media that we, the Patriots, can then intercept and try to discern what their evil intentions are.
	It's a way to keep the game fresh and exciting for the Dumb Dumbs by pretending that they Again, as you just said, you could just literally call somebody and be like, hey buddy, I want you to do a thing.
	Yeah, these people all got their fucking brains poisoned by liking Batman too much as kids.
	I'm sure of it.
	Yes.
	Because Batman is exactly as strong or as weak as he needs to be for the story to continue.
	You're so right.
	You know what I mean?
	It's just like, oh, the Deep State, man, they're fucking pulling all the strings from the shadows, man.
	It's a tough war out there.
	But simultaneously, we also have access to the whole internet database and all the texts and emails.
	We are several steps ahead of them, but the War for the Shadows is so difficult.
	It's just like, yeah, okay.
	Yeah, Batman could need a six-part series to figure out how to defeat the Riddler, a guy who literally gives you clues as to how to defeat him, and then also can defeat Superman in a ten-minute series if need be.
	So yeah, it's just that.
	It's just wherever the power level needs to be scaled to, we'll just move it there.
	And also, there's no death.
	There's only, like, transitioning to a different time or whatever.
	Like, when Batman got hit by the Omega Beams, instead of dying instantly, he went back in time.
	Because comic books are stupid, just like QAnon.
	And everybody loves Batman, because most people are stupid.
	So I expect there's a lot of overlap here, and I think I've finally cracked it.
	He did it.
	Do Not is a bunch of Batman-loving goons who have no idea what a good story is
	because all they've ever known in their life is a fucking hero of wildly
	vacillating power level who does everything from punch clowns that they
	think are cool all the way up to fight gods and win.
	It's the most insane thing, like, the stupidest thing ever.
	Ooh!
	And God knows they love clowns.
	So because they're just like, dude, and also there's a clown involved.
	We're fucking all in on a spooky clown.
	We love clowns.
	Like serious, like above the board clowns that like want to entertain children or whatever.
	No, fuck them.
	They're creepy.
	We assume they're pedophiles because we call everybody pedophiles.
	But if you give me a spooky clown, like an It clown, like the Joker, or like an insane clown posse, dude, we're about that life.
	Oh, yeah.
	Yeah.
	Oh, man.
	Some bad stuff.
	Someone posted some bad stuff about Violet J. It's always the ones you most expect.
	What?
	Controversies surrounding one of the guys from Insane Cloud Posse.
	I don't fucking believe it.
	Relative to them, like a conspiracy would just be like, yo, we found out he was working for Habitat for Humanity.
	That shit is unreasonable.
	Yeah, fuck him.
	Yeah, so as people have pointed out, Alex Soros had no say over what the photos were in the links to his article.
	That is determined by the editors of the website that posted the article.
	He had nothing to do with that.
	It's not his call to put the bullet hole glass and the hand holding the money thing there.
	Or is it, man?
	The dudes say it's a tough enemy.
	You know, the war.
	It's real hard.
	It's tough out there.
	He's personally picking the stock photo.
	He's like, that one will, that one right there, that gets my message across.
	Via text message or email transmission.
	Because we have all those.
	We'd be able to trace that.
	He's a carrier pigeon, that crafty fuck.
	Yes.
	With his unlimited resources, he's got some incredibly well-trained birds.
	You wouldn't believe how great they are.
	I'm imagining Alex Soros, a falconeer, he's just like, and we have this message to the internet publication, and this falcon just flies off with a little like spool, a little thing hanging off its leg that contains the paper that's tied to it.
	It was just, make sure that thumb is over one of the presidents.
	Yes!
	Then they fucked it up.
	But because Bird Transmission did not pass his email and didn't get to him before they went to print, George Orwell was furious.
	He started genetically engineering an even faster bird.
	Okay, let's move on from this horseshit to the high coast of Tru-
	High coast?
	The high coast of True the Boss.
	I get it.
	High tides are coming, you know, the glaciers are melting, high coasts.
	Yes.
	Yeah, I mean, when the fucking sea levels rise, California is fucked, so that is true.
	But in the short term, they're slightly fucked to the tune of five million dollars, I believe, is what Mike told me.
	Mike, what's going on with True the Vote?
	So, truth of vote, basically, Eugene Yu, the guy who ran the company called Kinect, which was the bait-and-switch that happened a million years ago at the event known as The Pit.
	Well, yeah, that was in Scottsdale, Arizona.
	Shout out.
	Mark Lamb was there, everybody.
	He's Sheriff for Pinal County and he is currently running for U.S.
	Senate.
	If you want to know how pilled Arizona is and who goes to the pit.
	Sorry.
	No, no, that's cool.
	You're an enthusiast for an Arizona-related thing.
	Elbow drop, my bit.
	Oh, I'm so sorry.
	No, it's fine.
	That's what that's what you're here for.
	Get in there.
	You love to see it.
	No, so basically what happened was is while True the Vote was being investigated for all of their various scammery bullshit, they managed to get themselves in front of some Los Angeles County prosecutors.
	And Greg Phillips actually testified before a grand jury, and he managed to get them to indict you for improperly storing the personal information of people on these voter data rolls.
	And it looked like True the Vote had scored this huge victory over Connect.
	And the reason why they needed this victory was because at the pit, They were supposed to actually reveal all their evidence about the 2000 mules, about the horrifying genetic programming of the human mule, and all that good stuff.
	And then once all these QAnon and QAnon-adjacent people went to the pit, True The Vote literally told them, yeah, you're not getting any of that information, but here's your new villain.
	Here's your new enemy.
	It's this company called Connect.
	It's like listening to the Rob Reiner podcast.
	Here's your new villain of the week.
	Yeah.
	Oh God.
	Haley, can you read this for me? So Eugene Yoo gets indicted by Los Angeles for this
	impropriety when it comes to storing the personal data of people.
	And then one thing leads to another.
	The case falls apart.
	L.A.
	has to admit that Greg Phillips was part of the people that dropped the dime on you and that very obviously he had some very personal reasons for why he was attacking this guy and trying to get him in trouble with the law.
	And so this week, It just came out that the Los Angeles County has settled with Eugene Yu for their false arrest of him, and they have paid him out $5 million as a result of that.
	Dude, that's hilarious.
	So yeah, so True the Vote just cost Los Angeles County $5 million with their smear campaign against the guy that runs Kinect, a company that literally nobody has ever heard of until they tried to make them into the new big bad that stole the 2020 election from Donald Trump.
	Nice.
	Get fucked.
	I mean, you know, it's not nice that taxpayers are losing money, but on the other hand, eh, they're just people in L.A.
	You know?
	Like, L.A.
	As an East Coast elite, I turn my nose up at L.A.
	And also, to the good citizens of Los Angeles, if you don't want to owe money like this, don't elect people that can prosecute people based on QAnon bullshit.
	Like, they obviously had a billed prosecutor in their ranks.
	Who was like, you know who's a trustworthy guy to put in front of a grand jury?
	Greg Phillips in True the Vote.
	This is absolutely going to lead just only to good places.
	There's no way this guy could be selling me down the river and setting me up to look really bad in a few minutes.
	Yeah, get your shit together, L.A.
	I liked you better back when you were normal, aka never.
	Yeah.
	No, L.A.
	is just a different trip, you know?
	It's like oil and water, the East Coast and the West Coast.
	That's actually not true anymore.
	It was so funny.
	People were making such a big deal of that back when I was growing up.
	But these days, it's just sort of like, yeah, LA is built differently as a city because it's sort of like a fucking Judge Dredd-style megacity that's just lower.
	It's just huge and sprawling.
	But whatever.
	It's the same as any place.
	You get a bunch of good ethnic food and you get a nice cross-section of people.
	Anyway, we love you, LA.
	Yeah.
	I also hate you.
	I went to New York like a year ago.
	And you know, it just it, it's you know, it's great.
	And it there it is definitely unique.
	But there's a lot of aspects of like, oh, every city is kind of just like a big city.
	You know?
	Yeah.
	Generally, I don't fuck with them.
	I think they're all kind of like nice to visit for like up to four days or whatever.
	And then you want to get the fuck out of there.
	Yeah, yeah.
	I'd much rather be on the outskirts of a big city.
	Like, get me into a suburb within, like, 20-30 minutes of a big city, you know?
	Like, that was sort of where I was at when I was living in the Midwest.
	It was just like, oh shit, I'm like 20 minutes away from Kansas City.
	That's pretty close.
	So every once in a while, you know what we would do for fun?
	Just go into downtown Kansas City, fuckin' have some fun.
	Anyway, speaking of places that are fun, just kidding.
	We're gonna talk about Arizona, so don't get too excited.
	It's time to talk about Arizona with our Arizona correspondent Haley, a.k.a.
	Arizona Right Watch, to tell us what's going on in her flaming dumpster comet crashing into a meteor of shit covered in vomit trash that is Arizona.
	What's going on with your state, Haley?
	Well, I have mentioned, you weren't here last week for this Elle, but Trump is coming to town.
	He's gonna be here in two days.
	First rally of the year for Arizona and Trump.
	They're going to be hosting it at Dream City Church.
	This is a megachurch here that sucks ass.
	They basically host a lot of the Turning Point events.
	They have this like kind of religious night with Charlie Kirk.
	So Charlie Kirk is like, you know, it's kind of like a very, it's a church that's very closely linked to Charlie Kirk and Turning Point USA and the AZGOP here.
	Uh, they pretty famously had a rally with Trump in the middle of COVID where they just blatantly lied to the media and said like, yeah, our air ventilation systems actually kill 99.9% of COVID.
	So we're good.
	And like, I think they got fined by the like Republican attorney general, even for like, you weren't supposed to be doing that at the time.
	They got fined $250,000.
	So yeah, this is Dream City Church.
	Last week I mainly just went over my shenanigans of getting kicked out multiple times of this church.
	But acting a fool or just because people recognize you were like an op.
	Yeah, more.
	It was like I got kicked out the first time with Travis View
	because some proud boys didn't like they didn't like my they didn't like my my my
	style and my attitude, even though I was just chilling.
	And the security guard like picked me out of the church event
	and questioned why I was there and what I was what I was what I was documenting stuff for.
	Um, and I was just kind of being really polite.
	And you weren't smart enough to tell a Bible college?
	Bible college?
	Dude, Travis Views straight up was like, I'm recording it for my podcast.
	I'm just recording the entire thing.
	They let him stay.
	They kicked me out and like followed me.
	And I had to spit at the guy to get him to fuck off finally and then like dip into a Dunkin Donuts so this weirdo security guard would stop stalking me.
	And the thing that honestly got me kicked out, it was like the guy was just asking me question after question after question.
	And then finally I was like, dude, I thought this was fucking America.
	Like I should be allowed to be here.
	And he called the police over to have me escorted off campus and then their personal security guard just kept following me.
	Second time I got kicked out, I went to a movie premiere there for some right-wing movie that they were hosting.
	And I got kicked out at the end of the movie because they recognized me and they're like, hey, it's that chick!
	Get her out of here!
	And they had the cops literally escort me out in front of fucking Will Sommer.
	And it's like, come on, man, can you pay attention to what's happening?
	I'm literally getting escorted out right in front of you.
	So anyway, that's the story with Dream City Church.
	It sucks.
	But this week, right ahead of Trump's big visit, they have a Christian school attached to their churches called Dream City Christian Academy.
	Um, these are Turning Point USA schools.
	They are Turning Point Academy schools.
	So, like, Turning Point USA partners with these schools and they have, like, a curriculum together.
	Um, I think this was actually the first Turning Point Academy school.
	Um, because, yeah, Turning Point USA is headquartered here.
	Charlie Kirk is very close with this school.
	They, uh, or this church.
	So, yeah, they opened up this school together.
	Um, this, uh, week, 35-year-old Nathaniel Panetta, a teacher at Dream City School, was booked to jail because he was sexually assaulting a 15-year-old that went to that school.
	So, you know, that's...
	That's pretty big news.
	This isn't a funny story.
	This is just a quick like, uh, the school that, and Trump, they're not changing anything.
	This is still, this church is still going to be hosting Trump in two days.
	And also they're about to have a huge, this will segue into the next story.
	They're about to have a, uh, election, the AZGOP to nominate the new AZGOP chair.
	Um, which will also be held at Dream City Church.
	They do their, these, at Dream City also.
	It'll be the day after Trump is here that they have this, you know, vote for who will be the new
	AZGOP chair.
	Kelly Ward was infamously our GOP chairwoman for a while and was part of the big phony electoral vote scandal here.
	She'll face some repercussions eventually for that, probably, but she hasn't been the chair for a bit.
	It is currently a man named Jeff DeWitt.
	Now, this man is not relevant to anything QAnon, really.
	He's just one of those, like, normie shitbag Republicans that, you know, wants to take all your rights away, but, you know, not in such an aggressively bombastic tone like Trump, so we're supposed to pretend he's better than the rest of them.
	But, yeah, the normie Republicans like this guy, and he was kind of seen as, like, the compromise guy.
	There's been this hilarious coordinated effort to get this guy the fuck out of the chair.
	They want him out.
	They don't like him because he doesn't lick Trump's asshole as much as them.
	So yeah, there was this news.
	Carrie Lake has been sitting on this for so long.
	Carrie Lake has been presenting this story since she's been running.
	Somebody offered me a big cash bribe to get out of politics, but I won't say who.
	This week, there's been, like, this huge, very obvious coordinated effort to, like, shit on Jeff DeWitt to get, you know, him out as the AZGOP chair.
	And Carrie Lake finally, uh, dished the dirt and said it was Jeff DeWitt that told her to, uh, like, stay out of politics and, like, You know, offered her a bribe, basically, is kind of what it was.
	And honestly, I thought this was kind of, like, a bullshit-ass story, because it's like, oh, Carrie'll say anything, and they're obviously doing a coordinated, like, campaign against this guy.
	Nope.
	She, she frank-the-turtled it and put a wire between her tits and recorded that whole conversation and leaked that one, finally, like, you're nine months out.
	And it is causing so much drama here because a bunch of people are like, wait, does Carrie wear a wire everywhere she goes?
	So I'm sure that'll actually kind of... I'm sure that'll actually kind of fuck her a little bit.
	Because I think a lot of people are going to be unwilling to...
	Kind of hang with her as much now, you know?
	You don't know if it's off the record when you talk to her.
	Everything's on the record if she wants it to be, because she's got her phone in her pocket with the record button on, and she's taping it.
	No, no, no.
	It's not in her pocket, Mike.
	Hayley specified it was in her goobah.
	Yeah, it was.
	I don't know.
	That's how I was just making a Frank reference.
	But yeah, she said she was wired.
	Talked her way into my bosoms.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, that's why she wears those tight dresses.
	She's like, hello, talk right here, please.
	You know?
	But... It's definitely a desperate plea for attention.
	But why not both?
	Why not both?
	The ultimate honeypot.
	It's just like, yeah, people are used to the honeypot that's just like hot and actually attractive and you want to get sucked in by them.
	But no one else is like really trying to play the damaged goods angle.
	She's like, of course they're not a double agent.
	Let's be happy I'm talking to them.
	I mean, look at her.
	She's so desperate for it.
	She's vacuuming this red carpet for me.
	Vacuuming this red carpet on a dirt floor.
	God, she's so thirsty for it.
	And I know I talk a lot of shit about Arizona, but for the record, Donald Trump is going to be playing to a fucking sellout crowd at this huge, awful mega church in Arizona.
	Oh, it's going to be so packed over there.
	I would love to go, but... Hey listeners, I asked last week if anybody wants to be my normie partner and we could play a little bit of dress up.
	Let's let's go check out this church event.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, who wants to be the Ken to Haley's Barbie?
	Yeah.
	That sounds horrible.
	That sounds like a terrible idea.
	Why would you want to opted for being there amongst those people?
	And you may get assaulted just an FYI.
	I have no way of protecting you.
	And you might get assaulted.
	So Well, I mean, if you're like a if you're like a fucking, you know, if you're a white cisgender dude, like you've already got camouflage, you can blend in amongst the predator.
	But anything else is definitely going to be a no go.
	You may get bear maced.
	You may get bear maced right directly in the fucking face if you're standing next to me.
	But, you know, that's sometimes you got to go get that footage.
	Yeah, that would be great.
	That would be worth it, because if somebody busted out the bear mace in that packed room, there would be a lot of splash damage, which would be really funny to watch.
	I'm sure a lot of those people would react super well to suddenly being maced, regardless of where I was coming from.
	I bet they would react appropriately.
	The guy that's the head of Dream City Church is like, the ventilation system kills 99.9% of the bear mace.
	Please stay indoors.
	All right.
	On that note, let's move into our news segment for the week, shall we?
	From the digital headlines to the digital front lines, it's Q's in the News!
	It's the most horrible time there is.
	Once every four years, creeping out of irrelevancy, it's the state of New Hampshire, somehow transplanted from the South to the North.
	And now we have to talk about them, because it is the one thing that they do that anyone gives a fuck about.
	Uh, be the first to deal with presidential bullshit!
	So, yes, truly election season is upon us, which means that I wish I was dead, but I'm not dead, so I will instead be here and I will soak up whatever knowledge I am about to, along with you, the dear listener, while I toss it over to Mike Rains to explain what's going on in the suddenly relevant state of New Hampshire.
	Well, the good news is, is that for us normie Democrats, if we get to have 2028 elections, if we are not a authoritarian nightmare under Grand Wizard Trump, The Democrats have told New Hampshire to kick rocks and that South Carolina is going to be calling the shots from now on.
	But the Republicans, weirdly enough, want this lily white state to continue to be their measuring stick for who gets to be president.
	And Donald Trump edged out Nikki Haley by like, I don't know, seven or eight points in this primary, which Fox News and Trump has declared to be a massive victory, an overwhelming landslide, a mandate that means Haley should drop out of the election immediately because she sucks and is bad and she smells.
	And she's a birdbrain, which is his new unbelievably witty nickname for her.
	And that's all going on.
	I imagine that somebody behind the scenes is just like, you can't call her a bitch.
	If you want to call her a bitch, call her a birdbrain instead.
	I'll call her a bitch.
	You know, she's Hayley, I'm Hayley, or it's White Hat Hayley, Dark Hat Hayley.
	What up, bitch?
	You know?
	I thought you were implying that all Hayleys were bitches.
	I was like, wow, that's tough.
	It could be.
	Bitch positive, bitch negative.
	In a way, we are all bitches.
	Sometimes I'm a little bit of both.
	And also, bitch, thank you.
	I saw someone use the term derogatory and then the term laudatory is like ways to react to a thing.
	And I was like, that's that's awesome.
	That's absolutely perfect.
	So yeah.
	So yeah, I'm gonna use that.
	That was funny.
	Yeah, so that is where we're at now in New Hampshire.
	Trump has won, which now takes us to South Carolina.
	Haley has decided she's not going to drop out.
	She's not just going to close ranks behind Trump, which I think the real reason for that, I think, is something we'll get into later.
	But South Carolina is also where Haley was the governor.
	So this is kind of an interesting little barometer.
	I think everyone thinks that Trump's going to just absolutely truck her in South Carolina, and that'll be the end of it.
	Probably that'll be what will happen, but hey, they pulled these elections for a reason, so we'll see.
	On the whole, thanks, New Hampshire, for vindicating the God Emperor and making his inevitable claim on the Republican nomination even more inevitable.
	So boo his to the state slightly north of mine.
	Well, at least you and I get to feel incredibly validated because we were two years ahead of the conservative infighting meta.
	Haley has finally decided to get up there and say what everyone's been saying all along.
	Donald Trump is a weak old man and his brain is turning into mush in front of us.
	Everything you say about Joe Biden, at least equally applies to Donald Trump, if not way more.
	He never ran against Obama.
	It never happened.
	He keeps saying it did.
	Yep.
	So yeah.
	So this is, this is the big thing.
	The big news really out of New Hampshire was the fact that we actually had a Republican for the first time in forever.
	Take the big swing and declare that the emperor does in fact not have any clothes on.
	Nikki Haley pointed out that Donald Trump might not be all there.
	And this first happened because Trump at a rally was pissing and moaning about the January 6th committee and how they destroyed all their evidence, which is not true.
	This is a weird lie that he's made up and he's convinced himself to be true.
	And after he whined about that, he started doing the whole thing where it wasn't my fault that riot happened, it was Nancy Pelosi's fault!
	And he yelled Nikki Haley's name three times in a row, and then said we offered her 10,000 troops, and then she, Nikki Haley, did not accept those troops.
	And NBC News posted the most spineless headline I've ever seen, where they stated, at a rally in New Hampshire, it appeared that Donald Trump mistook Nikki Haley for Nancy Pelosi.
	And it's like, you don't have to put the words, it appeared.
	That actually happened.
	You can say, quote, roll tape and watch it.
	You can watch it happen before your very eyes, where he literally says Nikki Haley's name four times.
	It appears this could be deceiving, Mike.
	This is true.
	This is true.
	They want to do their level best to make sure that they weren't tricked by... Do your own research as to whether or not he said that.
	Yes.
	Don't trust just the evidence they give you.
	Yeah.
	So that happened, which was, people would like to say, a bad thing, because fucking up Nikki Haley being Nancy Pelosi is probably not a great look.
	Then because Trump is in the late stages of his dementia and is really not very well kept together.
	He declared during a rally that America is not capable of solving even the smallest problems.
	He got the word smallest very, very wrong and said something entirely different.
	Either soul or swole, however you want to hear it.
	And then he repeated that we can't solve the smallest problems, not the simplest problems.
	And then he said, and I quote, we are an institute in a powerful death penalty.
	We will put this on.
	So, Whoa, whoa, whoa.
	Wait a minute.
	Can I get that one again?
	We are an institute in a powerful death penalty.
	We will put this on?
	Yep, we will put this on.
	That's the next thing.
	He's talking like Zero Wing.
	That's excellent.
	Somebody translated his speech into a foreign language and then back into English.
	This is Donald Trump calling it the backstroke of the West.
	That's probably the deepest cut reference I've made on the podcast in a while.
	Yeah, so, um, and this has led to people in the media actually for the first time in a long time being like, whoa, holy shit, what's going on with Donnie Two-Scoops?
	And... Even though it's news.
	Again, he multiple times claimed that he won races against Obama, which did not happen, obviously.
	That was not a thing.
	Uh, didn't he, didn't he think Wakanda was a real place that one time?
	That was fun.
	Uh, yeah, all the crazy shit about, he said about COVID, like injecting yourself with like, you know, just disinfectant and like blasting yourselves with just sunlight.
	Dude, this guy is out of his fucking mind and he has been for, since he was our president, like.
	I'm so glad that somebody in the Republican Party, like, you know, don't get me wrong, I still hate Haley's Guts, and also the person running against Trump, Bazinga.
	But like, finally, somebody's out there just being like... My heart is fragile.
	I'm glad that somebody, gee, I wonder why.
	But yeah, like, dude, just somebody's up there finally saying it, you know?
	Like, other people have kind of weakly been trying to say it.
	Like, Chris Christie was, like, you know, pretty vocal criticizing Trump in, like, other ways.
	But we've been saying it for a long time.
	DeSantis needed to get up there and call him a weak, feeble, old coward.
	And, like, this is that, pretty much.
	You know what I mean?
	Like, he's just like, hey, his brain... She's doing it in the nicest way possible because she knows inevitably she's going to have to kiss the ring when she gets her ass kicked.
	But she's just like, He lost his fastball!
	Like, this isn't the same guy we elected eight years ago or whatever.
	He's like 77 now.
	That's pretty old.
	And these are points that, yes, are true.
	And she should be making more strongly.
	Because it turns out that the conservative base really likes somebody who's just a piece of shit dickhead and they're a bonus.
	I was from One New Hampshire and spent his whole victory speech talking about how Nikki Haley was a piece of shit who should drop out.
	Yeah, Trump's victory speech was like the most vindictive, petty... People like to pretend that when you're running for president, you're supposed to be offering this bold vision for America's future, and that we want to hear what your plans are to give us a better life.
	And Trump just got on stage and was like, Nikki Haley, I just torched that bitch.
	That dumb broad, why'd she run against me?
	Seriously, what were you thinking, you dumb broad?
	It's like, whoa!
	Where's the message to uplift America and inspire us?
	It's like, it doesn't matter.
	Trump doesn't need to do those things.
	And then in a move that, like, to be honest, is pretty funny and, like, definitely, like, a sign of strength, he just sort of, like, brought up Vivek.
	He's like, I'm gonna let this guy talk for, like, exactly 30 seconds or whatever.
	And Vivek was like, hi!
	President Trump has given me an opportunity to say that I think he's pretty cool and I'm here.
	Hey, it's me and Donald Trump.
	Get the fuck out of here.
	Get the fuck out of here, you loser.
	I didn't talk about how Nikki Haley should drop out of the race because she's a dumb bitch and I hate her guts.
	And like, it's just like, holy shit, this guy.
	He's just pulling the corpses of his defeated enemies out to like, make them dance on stage with him and then shove them off stage again.
	Yeah, he literally had Tim Scott on stage and he was like, you're from South Carolina, Nikki Haley appointed you to the Senate, you must really hate her.
	And Tim Scott was like, no, Mr. Trump, I just love you so much.
	And then Trump was just like, Tim Scott got engaged, do you believe that?
	That's crazy!
	You could just tell he wanted to drop a homophobic slur.
	He was like, I totally thought that guy was a slur.
	I mean, either that or he's just like, he's too ugly to get a wife, you know?
	Look at him.
	He loves calling people ugly.
	He's just like, oh, she got a kid.
	She's probably a dog.
	Or maybe he was like, because doesn't Tim Scott one of those virgin till marriage guys?
	Well, Tim Scott is single and it's not as bad as Lindsey Graham when it comes to the allegations that he's gay, but it was a thing like on the campaign trail where people were like, yo, Tim Scott, you're black and you're single and you're pretty old to be single in Republican politics, which implication that you're gay.
	So what's the deal there?
	And then Tim Scott was like, Who the fuck is he?
	Rock Hudson?
	What is this, 1930?
	What the fuck?
	That's absolutely insane.
	He won't sing anymore.
	Yeah.
	You're too old to be a bachelor.
	I bet you're of the other fashion, if you catch my meaning.
	And no, I won't be inviting you to my dinner party.
	Good day.
	So funny.
	These people.
	Fuck them.
	They're the worst.
	I mean, like, look, I'm going to hate the next four years, uh, or the next four years.
	Hopefully not.
	I'm going to hate the next year, but at least at the beginning of it, it's, it's, it's going to be pretty entertaining because like, I get to, I get to watch people like try to come at Trump for a little while until eventually it settles into the obvious Trump v. Biden rematch.
	And it's just like, great.
	This boring fucking ticket again.
	Like an insane bundle of nonsense versus like, Just a signpost that needs to be repainted because it is weathered.
	And you're just like, these are our options, I guess.
	Once again.
	And then hopefully we'll never have to deal with that because of time.
	Hopefully time will prevent us from having to deal with both of these candidates ever again.
	Oh, well, I mean...
	Biden's out of our hair at the end of this election either way.
	Either he'll be the president for the next four years and then fade off into the sunset, or he'll be defeated and drift off into the sunset.
	Yeah, and then the sands of the hourglass will deal with the other one, hopefully.
	Four years from now, that seems like a stretch.
	If you're one of the people who would gamble on such a thing, which I'm not, but I do know there are people out there who do like that pool.
	I mean, that's a pretty, like, take a look at that guy.
	Just take a look at that guy and tell me he's got four more years on him.
	I don't know, chief.
	I mean, I'm of the belief that Trump ain't making it to November.
	He's starting to look like he's taking Ozempic, but I don't think he is.
	And that's not good.
	The Ozempic look just means that your body is changing very rapidly.
	Deflating?
	Yeah, you're deflating it.
	Your skin can't exactly catch up.
	So, like, you know, and no, hey, like, you know, that's just the way that goes for people that need to do rapid weight loss.
	But when it's happening naturally, quote unquote, to you, that's probably, and you're 77, that can't be a good sign.
	Yeah.
	He used to look plump.
	He used to look as plump as somebody who loves cheeseburgers and Diet Coke as much as he does, would look plump.
	But now he doesn't look, he's looked kind of gone.
	Yeah.
	Oh yeah.
	I follow someone on Twitter who's brought this up.
	They're like, the makeup, like the fact that Trump slathers all this like orange bronzer on his face, like it kind of hides some of it.
	But when you catch him on a good day, you can just like see how sunken his eyes are now.
	Like he's, he's just gotten to this point where he has gone from old man wearing clown makeup to unhealthy old man wearing clown makeup.
	And it's just, man, he just doesn't look right.
	And between that and the whole fact that the obvious problems
	with his brain are just becoming more obvious.
	It's like, man, it's the line from The Dark Knight.
	What's going to fail first, your spirit or your body?
	Is your brain or your physical health what's going to take you down at this point?
	Because he is just, he's just rough.
	And that's what's, it really blows my mind that the Republican Party as a whole has no contingency plan for this.
	If in the next two months I wake up and my phone is just blown up because Donald Trump has been rushed to the hospital, I will not be surprised in the slightest.
	I'll be like, yeah, that was the thing that tracks.
	And the fact that the Republican party is going to be like, well, if that happens, we'll just nominate Nikki Haley and get fucking curb stomped.
	I mean, it just seems so weird.
	Like you have no contingency plan for Trump not making it to the finish line.
	Insane.
	Yeah.
	I mean, what an incredible race it's going to be, you know?
	My favorite part about this go-around is that we get to be, like, even more double afraid of... It's just like, if Trump gets in, for the reason we just discussed, we have to really be carefully considering how afraid we need to be of their vice president, you know?
	That's going to be a thing we're probably going to have to deal with.
	Oh, God.
	Like, on January 20th, 2025, Donald Trump is going to be sworn in as a president at noon.
	And by 12.05 in the afternoon, Donald Trump will have been removed from the presidency by the 25th Amendment, and his vice president will be running America.
	He'll be president for less than 10 minutes if he wins.
	Yeah, that's the deep space plan the whole time.
	We don't have to get to Trump.
	We just have to get to Trump's feet.
	Yeah!
	Oh, trust me, there's a lot of QAnon talk about how they don't want Nikki Haley to be the Vice President because they're positive that that's the Deep State fallback plan.
	That they're gonna get a bad Veep in there to be over Trump's shoulder and they're just gonna get him out of there ASAP and put their Deep State puppet in to replace him.
	Damn it, who leaked Operation Bad Veep?
	Well, that's what they're talking about right now.
	They still don't know if Mike Pence was a goodie or a baddie.
	They can never figure these things out.
	Yeah, I mean, same thing with the red hood, you know?
	Batman.
	Yes.
	All right.
	Well, that's all the important news that's fit to print.
	Unsurprisingly, it's all about Donald Trump, because what a year it's going to be.
	Let's move on to our Listener Mailbag.
	Our listeners got questions, we got answers.
	It's time for Q and A. I'd like to thank the soundboard for once again cutting out on the last bump this week.
	Much appreciated.
	I believe that through the power of editing, that problem could be solved.
	It could be.
	Without ever bringing it up to the audience.
	Maybe.
	But what's the fun?
	Yes.
	Why be professional when you can be mad at the software?
	Now we get to have a juicy choice as to whether or not do we leave in the weird silence or do we cut it and make all the part that followed weird?
	Yes.
	The bump played for me.
	Yeah, but it played after a delay, which is what I believe Mr. Reames was talking about.
	Gotcha.
	Well, now this whole conversation is going on far too long.
	No, I think we need to discuss this for five, maybe 10 more minutes.
	I think we can pad out some runtime here.
	So Olbert Watkin asks, okay, Wendy Rogers, Carrie Lake and the Q Shaman and Joe Arpaio all enter Thunderdome.
	What vehicles are they driving?
	Who wins?
	Why do they all deserve to lose in the most fantastic way possible?
	Okay, who are the names?
	It was Carrie.
	Carrie, Wendy Rogers, the Q Shaman and Joe Arpaio.
	Uh, okay.
	So, uh, Wendy Rogers flies in on a jet because she used to be a pilot and that's how she gets around Arizona.
	She flies on her plane.
	So she flies in on a, a, a, a, a very fascist looking jet.
	It's just pure American flags, guns, Trump.
	It's disgusting to look at, you know, it's got a griper on it for some reason.
	Um, uh, Carrie comes in, uh, She comes in a whole, like, brigade of cars.
	It's like a, you know, like, what do you call those?
	A fake presidential motorcade.
	Yeah, a motorcade.
	She has a motorcade, and the trick with Carrie is you have to find which vehicle you're supposed to destroy, you know?
	Like, which one is she?
	It's like when Kim Jong-un was, like, super obsessed with the Secret Service, and he'd have, like, ten guys running on either side of his limo to all these events.
	It's just, imagine the only 10 fit North Korean men in North Korea and they're all wearing like secret service suits and they're like running alongside a limo.
	That was like, Kim Jong-un was just like, this is so cool.
	I demand this to be done for me all the time.
	Yeah, and the Q Shaman is like a soy boy, right?
	So he probably shows up on like a majestic stag or something.
	I think he shows up in his regular car because it's so funny.
	It's like a beater.
	It is honestly kind of the most American like Mad Max car.
	It's just like a beater with QAnon stickers all over it.
	It is so funny.
	So I think he would drive that but it would be it would be he would be on top of it.
	He wouldn't be driving it someone else would and he would have his spear.
	Yeah, um, Joe Arpaio is in just like a, like a high powered wheelchair because that guy's practically dead.
	And it's being motored by also gripers, unfortunately.
	Dude, he's like Axl from Twisted Metal.
	Can you get him in the fucking Axl mobile from Twisted Metal?
	Oh yeah, that's how I viewed this.
	I viewed this entirely as Swiss and metal.
	This is 100%.
	So that's the best I could do.
	I don't know cars very well.
	But the thing is, none of these people are cool enough to be Sweet Tooth, so they kind of have shittiness about them.
	Yeah.
	Donald Trump just shows up and his car is just like a regular car, but it's invincible.
	You can't destroy it.
	And if you even look at it for too long, it just dies.
	Uh, I don't- I mean, all of them deserve to lose.
	I would think the Q Shaman would win, mostly because he's like the most fit of all of them, but it all depends on- How does that matter in a Thunderdome car battle?
	I don't know, but I'm just, well, I don't know that Carrie Lake is really, I don't know, capable of actual, like, doing stuff like that.
	She seems, she seems a lot of bark and not a lot of bite.
	And Joe Arpaio is, again, I don't know that he would even be alive at the start of the battle, so I don't know.
	I mean, if he can win in un-life, then yes, he's allowed to have a chance.
	So it's basically between Wendy and the Shaman is who's gonna win this thing.
	It's like, she actually has a plan that she wins, because she'll just blow him up.
	But if she has more of a transformer car that turns into a plane kind of thing and she has to stay in car mode, then that's kind of a fair fight.
	It'll be that scene from Mad Max where the guy's, like, steering into the car.
	You haven't described any of the benefits of Q-shopping besides physically fit.
	So is Wendy's, like, transforming car plate just so weak that he's gonna wrestle it?
	Or is he just, like, super Saiyan strong?
	Like, what the fuck?
	He's high on Ayahuasca, okay?
	You're like, yeah, if Wendy, if instead of having a real, just fully functional jet, she's just got a jet that transforms into a car that's gonna be pretty rough.
	He's so physically fit.
	See, what are you talking about?
	Well, I just had one of the big conspiracy accounts on Twitter post that quote, the CIA confirmed that remote viewing is real and no one cares.
	So I assume that the Q Shaman is just going to astral project into her car and assassinate her.
	You just love the Q Shove-It so much that in your mind he's fucking Vin Diesel from that game The Driver or whatever.
	Where you just like leap from one car to another and just like air jack them.
	Just like leap into another vehicle and steal it effortlessly.
	He's a Batman in my story.
	I'm just way elevated in his power level.
	Yeah, he wins because Batman.
	Right!
	He's elevating his power level for no good reason.
	He's just got his anti-Windy Rogers spray.
	Yeah, exactly.
	I'm just a terrible writer.
	I keep coming to my crutch.
	Yeah, but he's so physically fit.
	He's got Chinese abs.
	He does!
	He's the most ever shown that Chinese abs are intimidating opponents.
	He just pounds it with his abs.
	Yeah, well, he would obviously lose to generic Chinese soldier with a 10 pack.
	So yeah.
	Find somebody who looks at you the way that Mike Rays looks at the Q Shaman.
	That's me.
	Oh, man.
	Um, remember when we found the Q Shaman's dispensary in Dallas, Texas, Hayley?
	When we saw what?
	The Q Shaman's dispensary in Dallas, Texas.
	Oh, yes!
	The American Shaman.
	And it was kind of a little pilled.
	There was some aspects of it that was like, this place seems a little bit... Oh, I believe American Shaman is a chain.
	Really?
	I believe so, because I believe I saw one when I was living in the Midwest in Kansas City, and I made a joke about it.
	And the person I live with there said, yeah, it's a Cheney.
	Oh, cool.
	That's great.
	That's good.
	I think the guy running this one was normal.
	We saw something that was like about the storm in the window, remember?
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Okay, so that could be a PILD thing, but also, at like a new-agey hippy-dippy place called like American Showmen, the problem is that like, which part of the sign is getting you to the storm?
	If American is getting you to the storm, then we're talking PILD.
	That's a QAnon thing for sure.
	But if Shaman is talking about the store, then that could be like a metaphorical store, or like, that might be a thing you can only understand if you're on Ayahuasca, and they'll be happy to tell you about which things you need for it, you know?
	So I'll give them a little bit of credit.
	Maybe they're not purely, purely pilled, but most likely they are.
	I mean, let's be real, it's a place called American Shaman that like functions in the South and Midwest, apparently.
	Like, if that store was in, like, Portland, Oregon, it would just be like, oh, okay.
	These people are Green Party all the way.
	Like, you know what I mean?
	Like, these people have never voted for one of the two parties in their whole ass life.
	They write in Ra the Sun God or whatever, like, every year, just in case.
	I'm laughing at that mostly just because of the fact that I'm wearing the jersey of a football player literally named Amon Ra St.
	Brown.
	He is literally the Sun God, so that's awesome.
	Yeah, vote him in.
	Yes, I'm all for the Sun God.
	So thank you for the question.
	Eric the Deep State Operative asks, if you find people who could interview one Q Influencer, who would it be and why?
	I would interview Dom Lecrae because he doesn't know the mythos and I would be able to just expose that fact repeatedly.
	And then he would just yell at me and call me a deep state chill and then leave.
	If he was trapped in the interview with me for like a half hour and could not escape, that would be the precondition.
	That he literally has to talk to me for this period of time.
	And I can just be like, yo Dom, what's your favorite Q drop?
	And he would have no idea what I was talking about.
	Because he would do no studying.
	He would just show up and be like, who's this dumb Mike Raines fellow?
	I'll just hornswoggle him with the flim flam.
	Because none of these people would ever engage with anyone who was actually prepared and knew what their dumb shit meant.
	Because that's the whole point.
	Their whole point is to just scream, oh yeah, the fake mainstream media won't tell you the truth about you.
	And it's like, no.
	They don't, because they don't care either.
	But if you do care about the truth about you, it's incredibly obvious.
	And you can just dunk on those people with the ease, because it's like an atheist reading the Bible.
	You just get to read all the terrible shit that's in there and be like, yo, defend your terrible religion.
	And then the Christian's like, oh, that was a metaphor.
	And it's like, no, you literally think this is the literal world.
	Only some of it.
	It's both.
	It's tricky.
	You have to be part of the club to be able to decipher it.
	The Magic Hat.
	The Gold Plates.
	That's what it's all about.
	Who would I interview?
	Oh, Lauren Boebert.
	Easy.
	I mean, let's be real.
	Like, especially if I could just, like, can I ask her off-the-record questions?
	Like, can it just be, like, a sit-down?
	Like, I'm just gonna ask you some shit because I wanna know.
	Because she seems like she's all freak.
	I don't give a fuck about her politics.
	I wanna know, like, hey, what's your favorite drug?
	Like, what's the craziest party you've ever been to?
	Like, you know, like, talk to me, like, why did you jerk that guy off at Beetlejuice?
	Like, that was pretty crazy.
	Like, don't you know that there are eyes on you?
	Like, did you get off on that?
	I'd ask her all sorts of weird shit.
	You'd hit Lauren Boebert with the Ollie G interview.
	You'd just be all over that stuff.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Fuck your fucking politics.
	I know that you're a bad person who pretends to be worse to get, like, fucking political attention or whatever.
	You know, who, like, plays up your worst aspects because your base likes it.
	Yeah.
	I'll just be like, hey, why did you think that it was okay to just open a restaurant where the gimmick was bring in guns and display guns?
	Like, how did you think that business model was going to work?
	Do you think that people were attracted to the idea of having guns just akimbo so much that they would come patronize your establishment over another one?
	Why did you think Hooters with Guns was a winner?
	It wasn't even Hooters with Guns, because it wasn't that sexually charged.
	It was more about the guns.
	If it was sexually charged and with guns, I could kind of get that.
	Some people are sexually charged by guns.
	Yeah, but not everybody.
	Most people are just like, more people are just sexually charged by booboo.
	So that's why Hooters is successful.
	Like, if you want to try to also entice the gun market, you start from Hooters and then you add guns.
	You don't start from guns and then eventually build to Hooters.
	It would also be helpful if you didn't give your customer base food poisoning.
	I mean, look, I'm sure that their kitchen was great.
	I'm sure that those guys were cooking real well, especially while they were strapped.
	It's like, no, motherfuckers, you also need to be strapped.
	This is an all-gun restaurant.
	That includes you.
	Guys just run it back and forth doing crazy, like, kitchen prep work, and, like, ducking out to rip cigarettes as fast as their little hands can smoke them, and then they fucking accidentally drop the gun, shoot one another, all sorts of fun stuff ensues.
	So, do you have an interview, Hayley?
	I'm gonna interview Ron Watkins.
	Nice, he's gonna give you a fuckin' very awkward triumph fist.
	Yeah, I know.
	Sometimes I think some of his awkwardness is a bit played up for the media, so I want a one-on-one with him for, like, hours, where I could... Yeah!
	Out of context, Hayley, it was very skid.
	That was the worst one yet!
	You want a one-on-one with Ron Watkins for hours!
	Mm-hmm, yeah.
	Because I think eventually he would break, you know?
	I think I could break him.
	Like an interrogation.
	Like, are you for real?
	Are you for real?
	Are you actually like this?
	What's your deal?
	And I think I could get him to admit to a lot of things because eventually he would just start bragging.
	I'd be afraid that I'd sit down to interview him and it would be much more clear in person that he's just genuinely somewhere deep on the spectrum.
	And I would just be like, oh.
	I'm very disarmed by this because I hate your stupid guts, but also, like, I have empathy.
	So, like, I don't want to, like, come at you like a spider monkey.
	Also, I think I would interview him about his relationship with his father.
	And probably make him cry.
	That would be really interesting.
	Especially because he interviews, like, Chuck E. Cheese animatronic.
	So, like, watching one of those things, like, break down emotionally would be really rough.
	Watching Charles Entertainment cheese crack about it's relationship with his dad.
	Yeah.
	Fuck a Five Night at Freddy's.
	This is the real horror.
	This is the real, like, nostalgia animatronic horror pitch here.
	You go to a therapist, and it's one of them.
	Or you are a therapist, and one of those things comes in, and you're like, oh, Jesus.
	Don Ortega asks, is there one event or series of linked events that could happen that would make Q followers see that they're 100% in a cult?
	Currently, no.
	The only thing I think that could have happened was if Trump had won reelection, There would have been this moment of crippling cognitive dissonance where President Trump would have been screaming at them for like a year to get vaccinated.
	And they would have been trying to decode how he didn't really want them to get vaccinated because vaccines are bad.
	Like, QAnon was obviously devastated by Trump's loss.
	And that was obviously a very net negative thing for the movement.
	But if Trump had won in 2020, They would have had to have handled Mr. get your shots, stop COVID, let's do this, not being Sleepy Joe, the agent of the Illuminati, but instead being the God Emperor himself, screaming at them to put needles in their arms.
	And that would have fucked with them so badly that it would have been a really weird spot to be in.
	So it's just like, I think that could have happened.
	It would have been interesting.
	But currently, I don't see anything like that.
	I mean, again, Trump's death is the big moment that will really impact the movement.
	But I don't know that that makes them see that they're in the wrong, that they're in a cult.
	I think it just it just makes them sad.
	And it makes Trump a martyr.
	And that's basically where they would go.
	So at this point in this timeline, I don't see anything that gets them out of that.
	No, I mean, at this point, it's just sort of like a meme.
	It can fade for relevance, but it'll never truly go away.
	At any moment, it can get dusted back up.
	Sort of like hibernating critters.
	They'll burrow underground for a spell, and then eventually the circumstances will be right, and they'll just come right back up to the surface.
	They can sneak around in bulletin boards or whatnot, and go more underground without completely disappearing.
	Besides, like, QAnon morphed into just, like, an umbrella that just absorbs all these smaller conspiracy theories anyway, so, like, the fact that they truly believe in nothing means that they could just exist in perpetuity.
	Like, because you'd have to rip all of their blinders off at once, simultaneously.
	There's so much more than just, like, Donald Trump is the real president, or whatever, you know?
	There's, like, a thousand different things on that list.
	Yeah, like, right now, QAnon's, like, super angry about raw milk.
	Like, they're super just, you know what?
	It sucks that we can't drink raw milk.
	This is bullshit.
	That was like nowhere on my, where is QAnon going to go next, bingo card.
	But here it is, just.
	Yeah.
	Pasteurization, fuck it.
	Yeah, they're on the same train as Turning Point USA.
	A lot of those people are on that like raw milk shit.
	Putting beef tallow on their face, whatnot.
	Beef tallow is for french fries though.
	That is, that is facts.
	We should bring that back.
	I mean, who cares?
	Like America is still really fat.
	Let's just, I don't care what strides we've made.
	I want my french fries to taste good again, damn it.
	There are people that are like 30 years old now that have never had a real McDonald's french fry.
	They phased those out so long ago.
	Yeah.
	Damn.
	That is a while ago.
	I don't even remember how delicious the old fries were then.
	It's hard to remember.
	In my head, at this point, it's all nostalgia.
	All fueled by nostalgia, baby.
	I'm willing to bet that the ones that were fried in beef fat do have a better, deeper richness of flavor than the ones that are not.
	No matter how much the nostalgia colors the flavor of it, I do have to imagine that it is a better fro.
	DR initially asks, has Q team finally accepted that their harbinger may not be the saint they want to believe in?
	No, they are 100% all in on Trump.
	Again, the only problem is that Trump has a shelf life and that this movement becomes something different after he no longer has political relevancy.
	Oh, that's so interesting.
	This is why you see things like Liz Crokan not talk about QAnon, but she talks about Pizzagate.
	Because she's trying to rebrand the Illuminati as Pizzagate.
	Because the Illuminati got rebranded as QAnon, and she wants to start the next cycle.
	She wants to be on the cutting edge of the next iteration of the grand universal conspiracy theory.
	The explanation for why the world is the way it is.
	Because back in the day it was the Jews and the Protocols of Zion, then it became the Communists, then the Satanists, then the Illuminati, and then QAnon had the Deep State.
	So it's just that.
	It's just who is the big bad behind the throne, who's secretly running everything, and why are we mad at them?
	That's the story that will- Is it Tommy the typewriter or whatever?
	Chuckie, Chuckie the typewriter.
	Is he the big bad?
	Spoilers!
	Spoilers!
	Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry.
	Yeah, Jesus.
	How dare you, Hayley?
	Fuck.
	I haven't gotten to that part yet.
	Sorry.
	Oh God.
	I'm sorry.
	But yeah.
	So the big thing about QAnon, the reason why QAnon got popular, whereas these
	other things were very niche, is that QAnon gave people a protagonist.
	And that protagonist was literally the President of the United States.
	Whereas in the other stories, the protagonist is Alex Jones, it's some dumb crank talking on the radio and asking you to buy his dick pills to defeat the globalists, and that kind of shit.
	That's what Liz Crokan and Dom Lucre and Michael Flynn and all these other low-level grifting dirtbags are trying to do.
	They're trying to make themselves the hero of the story so that you will buy their shitty products and you will invest in them.
	Whereas Q had the bold idea of not being the hero, he's just the guy working for the hero, and the hero is Donald Trump.
	So that was how the movement got big.
	And it will never be that big again, barring Trump retaking the presidency, because you're never going to have a hero that actually can go toe-to-toe with the bad guys.
	L's Batman analogy notwithstanding about how the power levels shift as per the story's mandates, the thing is, is to your rank-and-file schmuck, They know Alex Jones isn't beating the globalists.
	They know Liz Crokin isn't beating them.
	They do believe that on some level, the president could beat them.
	So that's what they need.
	And without that, they don't have that uh protagonist character to sell the product to the people and because this shit is depressing really when you go up to somebody like hey did you want to know that bad people rule the earth and everything's fucked they're like no i don't want to know that that's terrible but if you go up to them and say bad people rule the world and we're all fucked but the president is about to change all that
	Then they'd be like, I'm listening, go on.
	Ah, cool.
	Is it like a sweet movie president?
	Like the one in Independence Day or like Harrison Ford back when he was like 45 instead of being like 80?
	And they're just like, no, it's more like Harrison Ford now that he's 80 and also less cool than Harrison Ford and less fit than Harrison Ford.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Yeah.
	And in fact, just somebody who's nearly 80.
	Those are your options.
	Would you like nearly 80 or over 80?
	Yeah.
	Antifa Medications Instructor asks, what exactly does future-proof past mean?
	Future-proof past is QAnon's bullshit for what is known as predictive programming.
	Haley, did you have something to say?
	Because you jumped when I said that.
	No, I was making sure that my computer didn't just lag out.
	It did a weird thing.
	The opposite, Mike.
	She was ignoring us for so long that her computer fell asleep.
	No, it wasn't!
	It was just like, why did it just jump?
	Now, so Future Proof Past is what we like to call, it's a version of cold reading, it's a version of what is predictive programming.
	What Future Proof Past means is QDROPs that have not, quote unquote, come to fruition yet, that have not fulfilled the prophecy, those QDROPs just have yet to do so.
	And basically when any event happens in the world, You as a good follower of Q go through the drops and you try to discern which Q drop referenced this event in history.
	And when you eventually find a hit, you validate Q through that.
	And then you get all excited that you were the one that figured out what Q was trying to say in that moment.
	Like, uh, when McCarthy got the speakership, And everyone was just like, oh, McCarthy won.
	Great.
	Who cares?
	Q had some gibberish on the forums where it was a bunch of crap and it was the number 15 and there was the word good in it.
	And so suddenly QAnon people Started looking and they found this Q drop and they were like, wait a minute, wait a minute.
	It took 15 votes for McCarthy to win the speakership.
	And it was Representative Good, who was the one that like stood down to finally like give McCarthy the majority he needed to win.
	15!
	Good!
	Q knew it was coming!
	Q foresaw in the prophecy that this was going to happen.
	This is how McCarthy was going to become Speaker.
	And so, boom!
	Q-proof.
	They validated it.
	They saw the truth.
	And this is what they do with all Q-drops, where they're just constantly looking through them, trying to figure out a way to make it so there was a hit.
	Spoiler alert here is that there's so many misses, there's so many Q drops that don't resolve with anything, but the prophecy can never have failed.
	The prophecy just has yet to come true.
	That's the shit.
	That's the act they're running.
	And so, future proves past is just a way to say eventually Q's vision will be manifest.
	You just have to wait long enough for it to happen.
	Just like every dumb flim flam prognosticator in history, you know?
	It's Nostradamus.
	It's just fucking Nostradamus all over again, where maybe he said these things, maybe he didn't, but it's close enough to what just happened here, so we're giving him credit for it.
	And our final question is from Paste, which is, have you followed the latest Eva Lear versus Golinski conversations?
	No, I have not, but Phil Golinski is a huge piece of shit, so I hope you stick around.
	Who is this?
	Phil Galinsky, he is a QAnon promoter who has been accused of sexually He's going after underage women, like hitting on them and stuff like that, which of course is a huge no-no in QAnon world and in reality.
	So Phil's in not great standing with QAnon right now, but he's still fighting the good fight being a giant piece of shit.
	And two, what's the campaign strategy for Biden if you were his strategist?
	Trump has dementia.
	Trump is unfit.
	Like Trump had a rally or he had an interview with somebody where he was just like, I'm totally cognizant.
	I'm totally with it.
	I'll take a dementia test against Nikki Haley right now if she wants to.
	And the fact that the Haley campaign didn't agree to that immediately shows they're not serious about winning this thing.
	Like, if I was part of any campaign running against Donald Trump, and I had Trump on the record saying, I will take a dementia test if you will take one also, I would be like, deal.
	I will, what is your location?
	I will drive to where you are right now.
	If you are too far away, I will fly there.
	I will be there within hours.
	And we can both, we can both write down the names of some animals and draw a clock.
	And all that good stuff, because I will do better than you on this test, and I actually don't trust the opacity, because your brain is tapioca.
	So yeah, all day, every day, we'll just hammer the fact that he doesn't have the mental acuity to be president.
	It couldn't hurt to actually come out and offer him a challenge like that, too.
	Right.
	Because inevitably Donald Trump's going to be like, Joe Biden is sleepy and old.
	I'm the greatest, most fit person ever.
	And Joe Biden should just be like, all right, I challenge you to like a, you know, let's run 1K.
	Let's take a competitive IQ test.
	Let's play chess together.
	a competitive IQ test. Let's try to, let's play chess together, you know? Like I'll challenge
	you to anything. Oh yeah, like, yeah.
	If Trump even agrees to debates against Biden, which I don't know that he would, if I was Joe Biden, I'd be like, look, Trump, you claim to be the world's greatest golfer.
	Let's do 18 holes tomorrow with no golf cards.
	We both just have to walk the course, 18 holes.
	You'll probably beat me in the actual golf because I'm just kind of a hobbyist, whereas you're addicted to it.
	But let's just let the American people see who looks better after 18 holes.
	Let's just do that.
	Let's hit the links, buddy.
	You love golf, don't you?
	And Trump would probably, like, pass out halfway through that.
	He would just never accept.
	He'd be like, maybe Joe, he's trying to convince me to play golf.
	It's just like, yeah, that's exactly what he's doing.
	He's framing it as some sort of, like, trick.
	Yeah, so that brings us to our final question, which is always, what are you guys looking forward to?
	Ooh, what am I looking forward to?
	Now that I'm back from vacation and we're getting into the slow season vis-a-vis, which I believe, rather, is pronounced, the no longer having to deal with a gauntlet of holidays, I think it's time to get back into some tabletop roleplaying with my friends.
	So I'm excited to be doing that.
	I will be DMing a session of some nonsense on Sunday for the first time in, like, three months, because we always have to do, like, the fucking That sounds good.
	moratorium on games that happen as everybody's schedule turns to shit.
	So yeah, I'm excited to get back into some TTRPG action.
	That sounds good.
	Hayley, what are you looking forward to besides the cold embrace of death?
	I don't know, just life.
	I'm looking forward to this year and positive things.
	I don't want to be too specific, but I'm just looking forward to the year.
	Looking forward to the year?
	I am looking forward to these final three football games that we got.
	We got the two games this week and then two long weeks until the Super Bowl and then just crippling sadness for like seven months because the NFL is the shortest season of all the major sports ball events.
	But it will be fun.
	Rooting for the Detroit Lions because Lord knows their fan base has suffered in perpetuity for forever because their team has never been any good.
	And now they are merely two games away from winning the Super Bowl, which I don't think they will, but if they did, that'd be great.
	So good on them.
	Beyond that, I'm just looking forward to the fact that winter has been really mild here in Massachusetts.
	And if we can just get through February without it being murderously cold, it'll just be like a huge win.
	It'll just be like, Literally, we had fall, then we had colder fall, and then we had spring.
	So that'd just be deluxe.
	So good on you, climate change and global warming, for making winter not as unbearable as it usually is.
	This week we hit the 50s a few times in January, which is absolutely nuts.
	Yeah, some people say we're destroying the Earth, but for those of us in certain regions of the world, we are merely modifying the Earth to better suit our desires for climbs, you know?
	We're terraforming it.
	Yes!
	So fuck Venice, they can be underwater if we don't have to deal with snow.
	Right.
	Is it fair to me?
	I don't live in Venice.
	Nope.
	Exactly.
	All right, so on that note, it's time for us to paddle our little gondola out of Hellworld for the week.
