you you Thank you.
The Adventures in Hell World podcast talks in depth about QAnon.
While it's meant to be comedic informative, sometimes we have to get into things like child abuse and violence against people.
Listener discretion advised.
Hello, everybody.
I am Mike Raines, aka Poker and Politics, and welcome to another episode of Adventures in Hell World.
This week, I am joined as always by Haley, aka Chaley, aka Arizona Right Watch.
What up to my bros?
It's the bro episode.
We're broing down.
Yep.
And I'm also joined by co-star Eric, the Deep State Operative.
Yeah, I'm glad we figured that all out on Twitter last night.
That was pretty intense.
That made me chuckle.
That made me chuckle a lot.
Yeah, you probably didn't see it, Haley, because you're not on Twitter.
But I was posting in there.
I said, okay, I've been doing Hell World for a while, and Mike is indisputably the host.
And Haley is co-host.
So I'm like, what does that make me?
Am I like, am I like part of the whack pack?
Am I like Guillermo to his Jimmy Skimmel?
How does this work?
You are the and you're the guy that that like doesn't get you don't get the first or second billing.
So you work hard for your uh your your agent and make sure you get the and so after all the other people in the casket listed, then it says and Eric the Deep said operative at the edge and boom introducing introducing in the end.
That's that's what you got to have your that's what you got to have your uh your agent fight for when you're working on this stuff.
Uh, if you were following my Twitter at all, I was posting I posted about how people um all these QAnon people are writing screenplays about uh like Obama and Trump talking to each other.
They're making all this fan fiction of the of their their heroes and villains battling each other in witty dialogues.
And someone actually replied to me and was like, I'll make a screenplay for you about this.
And a million years ago, I did a pilot episode.
I wrote a I wrote a I did write a screenplay.
I wrote like a pilot episode for a like a QAnon-based procedural like for a network and it was terrible.
It was absolute trash.
The problem was that the I showed it to a couple people and they were like, here are the litany of problems we have with your screenplay.
And I was like, thank you.
Do you want to help me work on those problems?
And they were like, fuck no.
No, we do not.
You come up with the second draft yourself, buddy.
And I was like, but you're my creative friends, and that's why I turned to you.
And they were like, yeah, we can pick out the flaws.
We can't fix them.
So go to hell.
And I was like, oh, dogs.
Aw, beans.
I remember when I was in high school way back in the 20th century, my friend of me, a friend of mine to me, our goal was to be like the second coming of Gene Ronnenberry.
So we had this big sci-fi show we'd planned out.
We had all these big ideas.
It was like, it was like, you know, like species that have been around for 10,000 years and humanity is just getting started.
All this stuff, big battles.
And then, like, looking back on it now, I'm like, okay, this was Star Trek Next Generation with the serial numbers filed off.
We were so ripping off Star Trek, it's not even funny.
Yeah, not even trying.
Just not even trying.
That's okay.
Just call it a just call it parody.
And you can run that.
You can run the series of that.
Well, Next Generation was still on the air at the time, so it was kind of a too soon deal.
You know, it was like, you know, it's uh McFarlane can get away with it now doing the Orville because now it's you know retro and it's an homage, but back then it just would have been a rip-off.
Yeah, do you like next gen?
Do you like yeah, that's what got me into Star Trek was Next Generation.
Yeah, next gen next generation was my jam.
Yeah, and I love, I really it makes me laugh because of the fact that basically Patrick Stewart only took the job because all his buddies were like, yo, it's Hollywood money and it's a dumb show.
You'll go in there, it'll be canceled in two seasons, and you'll be back in London doing more theatrical work.
Yeah.
And he was like, sounds good.
And then next thing you know, it's a 20-season thing and it's his biggest thing that he did in his career.
You like Deep Space Nine?
Deep Space Nine is great.
Yeah.
The problem is, I didn't actually watch all of it.
I dipped out after like season four or five for whatever reason.
I think it was one of those things where I just lost the network it was on and my story arc really starts kicking right I completely missed out on the big payoff.
I missed out on the Dominion Wars and how all that great stuff.
I've caught up.
I haven't watched it, but I've caught up on all the clips and I know what happens.
And I'm like, yeah, that's a great payoff to that.
It's the reverse of what happened to Babylon 5.
So I mean, it's just really funny.
Yeah.
And they got the idea from JMS too, so it all comes full circle.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, that's the thing is that like Deep Space Nine was, I mean, they did do some procedural stuff, but it was like Babylon 5, where it was a serial where it was like episodes built upon episodes, and then you had to actually get caught up.
It wasn't just monster of the week or random sci-fi encounter of the week.
It was actual, like, we were building characters, we were building plot points.
I mean, the whole thing was J. Michael Shrzinski.
He was like, I'm not saying that Paramount stole my idea, but a year before Deep Space Nine came out, I came up to them and said, Hey, I got an idea for a TV show about a bunch of people who live on a space station and weird stuff keeps showing up.
And they're like, Yeah, we're going to pass.
Oh, yeah.
My favorite thing with Jay Michael Schrasinski is that so many idiots, like he literally has made it abundantly clear: if you tell me the idea for a story, I cannot do it.
And now it will never happen.
And people keep doing that to him, anyways.
And he's just like, Yeah, that happened weird Al Yankovic says the same thing because that's lawsuit country right there right it's like hey Al here's some lyrics for a parody he's like great now I can never make that question have either of you guys like like seen or liked the original Star Trek series I've watched enough episodes and I mean it's it's hokey that's exactly what I was gonna use it is it's so
it's it's hokey for the time it came out in it was groundbreaking and great and there are some good important messages that still resonate today but yeah it's super hokey it's very hokey i you know you mentioned monster of the week and it's like babe of the week for shatner yeah in right in the original series right he he's just he's just banging green chicks and he's banging a blue chick and it's just like man what the hell's going on here but uh the thing i liked about
the original series though is that it is campy in like the modern like if you just watch it and like for what it is uh i love like the costumes and the creatures and just like star trek's always been pretty good about like making costumes and creatures yeah and you gotta remember that's true the original show was made on a shoestring budget oh yeah pennies on the dollar yeah oh uh but going back going back to what started all this stuff was um i basically that there's that guy who said like i'll
make a silly screenplay about q anon so i dm that guy and i told him like here's like my here's like the the bullet points for like my pilot episode of the q anon show that i had in my head and that guy was like oh wow that's really interesting let me think about this and i was like just give me an executive producer credit when it gets picked up by peacock just like when you make the pilot and it actually works out just have me somewhere buried in the credits as being part of this but um
because saying mike rain oh yo oh god yeah no no i just wanted an executive i wanted to be like six i want there to be six executive producers on that on that page and i'm like number four i'm completely hidden i'm completely anonymous it's just three guys that put in actual work mike rains and then two more guys that put in actual work and that's just it and if anyone's like oh that that that weirdo guy who talks about q anon and shirley manson on twitter he got an executive producer credit that's odd yeah or
maybe they could maybe they could do like uh like with gene ronover there and they could and in the credits for everything say based on q anon by mike rains yeah yeah that that would be horrifying that would be like the absolute worst possible outcome that would that would completely validate jim stewartson he was right i was behind q anon this whole time he finally he caught me that red scoundrel that hoodlum i kind of
wonder sometimes if any stew and i guys hate watch this show and then they run back to him and go they're talking about you again jim i think they do i think they're always awesome i really hope they do because like bi-monthly i make like 110 in ad revenue from this show so thank you for the seven cents jim stewartson fan club that hate listens to this oh man you're you you you you line my coffers with approximately like
51 a month so thank you so much for your for your time and effort it is greatly appreciated shout out to our listeners yes yes and love all three of you guys yeah yeah that's the thing is actually i actually had one of our ancient listeners from the from the bygone days uh uh reverend xenofact and cleodora silvestri uh the grand inquisitor they actually like emailed me i'm like hey we're checking back in like
we enjoy the show like the the turnover and the crew and the the new format rocks we're happy with you just wanted to let you know that like we're still we're still around and i was like thanks i miss the grand inquisitor but uh yeah that's that's good i like that yeah yeah so all of yes speaking of things i like how about we talk about boobs now yes let's talk about let's talk about big natties and how obviously if
you're offended by big natties uh you are a democrat and you are the democrats because i i do believe it was nancy pelosi who came out against big natties and chuck schumer and and huking jeffries and in kamala harris's note not running for governor of california she also mentioned that she was deeply offended by sydney sweeney's big natties yeah she said she said no jugs here yes yeah just you say that because
you know nancy pelosi does kind of have big natties not i'll take your word for it never looked once actually
uh i'll have to find that photo of uh nancy pelosi and jfk uh they looked pretty good together oh uh yes they were contemporaries i guess well she's young she's young in the photo well yeah that's what i'm saying yeah but i'm saying like she's younger than him like yeah yeah he'd be over 100 if he was alive today right which he is yes exactly with all the other ones hitler and
them referencing joe walt joe walt walsh i'm not sure i saw that when i i mean i've seen a few things but i haven't seen any like real names talking about this i saw the white house come out with saying that they're defending sydney sweeney's big natties the actual the actual white the actual white house page came out with we support sydney sweeney's huge knockers like how dare
you know i say at this point maybe we should give it a little context for like the three people who don't know about this well i mean i'm just kidding i mean there's there's somebody out there i mean there's somebody out there who doesn't know who the president is right now so so we should uh you know we should never assume that everybody knows what we're talking about every comic book is somebody's first this started actually like last year when she appeared on snl and
henania was like sydney sweeney's boobs destroyed woke and it was like okay that was i remember that what are we saying here but they kind of latched on to this narrative yeah i remember like i think it was like charlie kirk maybe going on and saying you know that the libs hate hate sydney sweeney because she's hot and sexy and they and they don't like hot and sexy of course everybody hates hot and sexy yes hot and sexy has been so out and
everybody i'm excited to tell you that it's back yes justin timberlake brought it back again yes um
um but yeah the unfortunately i i'm i you know i've seen like season one of euphoria so i am semi familiar with her oh is that the show she's on yeah it was zendaya on hbo okay um years ago i saw that i mean i i mean i know zendaya as mj from you know the mcu so i'm not i'm not about hip to the stuff the kids are watching these days um i think like like like,
Euphoria kind of made Zendaya big, and then she became like the, like, I'm in Spider-Man.
I'm in Dune.
I'm in everything.
She's kind of it girl.
Seen Sidney Sweeney's kind of it girl.
Yeah.
Like, there's a series of it girls right now.
We're doing girly pop.
Are we doing girly pop?
We might as well.
Um, all the right-wingers are dipping into celebrity culture.
So I just love how they're like, the left hates this.
And I'm like, I have yet to meet a single person on the left who gives a flying fuck about Sidney Sweeney, you know, showing her knockers off for American Eagle.
It was like, my personal stance on it is, if some young person sees those commercials and has the same reaction that 12-year-old me did to watching Cindy Crawford drinking a diet Pepsi, then, you know, more power to them.
Those commercials turned multiple people, they awoken multiple people, both gay and straight.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Like, like, like, like, my young self saw Sidney Crawford, you know, throwing her head back to drink the die patch, and I was like, women are awesome.
And like, the right has been trying to, like, claim her.
They did this with Taylor Swift way back in the day, but kind of gave up hope because she obviously came out as like a liberal when she does speak politically.
Yeah, funny.
Yeah, funny how they keep trying to get the blonde-haired, blue-eyed, you know, all-American girl.
Yeah, it's definitely a move.
It's like, we want to have like the white it girl kind of see the face of MAGA or the far right or whoever.
Yeah, they're not going for ambiguously brown Zendaya or anything.
No, no, actually, there's a lot of really, really racist memes about Zendaya.
Oh, God.
Turn her into a monkey.
And if you live in right-wing world enough, you see like who they're all so horny for at the moment, unfortunately.
And like, they're AOC a lot.
They're horny for AOC, but like there is a lot of like, they really don't like the current Snow White that just came out.
They pretend she's ugly, which is hilarious because she's very much not.
But the Sidney Sweeney thing, it is definitely like, she's white, she's blonde, she's beautiful.
She got big knockers, big natties.
So like they want to claim her as kind of like theirs.
It is very weird.
And then the commercial came out where like she's doing the gene ad and there is this like double entendre kind of like of jeans jeans.
And I did see this one guy who was kind of doing like in their defense thing.
He was saying, because you know, obviously people are saying like she's talking about how she has good genes and she's, you know, she's, she, she looks like the Aryan ideal of a woman.
So people are making, so people are claiming that the left are making these comparisons.
I haven't actually seen it happen.
But either way, I saw somebody say that he thought it was supposed to be like an homage to these ads that Brooke Shields did back in the 80s where she did a similar good genes comment.
Yeah, which is super fucking weird because those commercials, I saw those and she's like 14 in them and they're very clearly supposed to be.
Yeah, the guy did point that out too, that she was uncomfortably young.
But this was the 80s when it was when it was what they called old school pay-do-ing before it got a bad name.
No, there was like there's the era of Brooke Shields is also weird if you want to talk about like celebrity Hollywood cultures.
Oh, she was, yeah, she was so exploited when she was a teenager.
Yeah, there is a lot of weird elements to all her.
She was nude when she was 17 or something like that.
I'm pretty sure that that Blue Lagoon movie is she's on my position.
Yeah, she's underage in that movie.
Yes.
Like she is very nude in that movie.
Very weird, incredibly weird career as far as that.
Sidney Sweeney is an adult.
She's like 28.
So it's okay to talk about her big bazongas.
Yeah.
But I do see like, I don't know.
I lost my train of thought.
I see like kind of like right-wingers pulling like a Libs of TikTok thing where they're like pulling like one random person that's like, this is a Nazi ad.
And I do think like the jeans thing is a little weird.
And Duncan also similarly put out a donut or a donut, an ad of like talking about genetics.
And like, so did Arby's.
And it's just like, okay, what's with all the genetics talking about that?
That their food is GMO.
I mean, I don't get it.
What are they saying?
It is like the Duncan ones kind of feels like it's leaning into like white boy summer ass like meme culture a little bit.
I don't know.
I mean, do you guys have any like thoughts about anything besides the big fat boobs part?
Well, the thing is, is that no, I'm totally distracted by boobs.
Yeah, I get it.
Oh, and who wouldn't be?
But what I would say is that I feel like this ad was very much designed that it was going to be about Sidney Sweeney and her big naddies and how that was how the vast majority of people were going to take it.
But they knew that there would be this like small backlash of like hyper-sensitive online leftists and that they could then use that to project all this shit onto the mainstream left and the Democrat left.
And that's what's so fucking ridiculous about all of this is that I've seen a bunch of people make this point where it's like, if Democrats are going to be universally blamed for every bad thing that happens in this world,
then we're so fucked politically that it's insane because no one running for office or holding elective office gives a flying fuck about this stupid American Eagle commercial in Sidney Sweeney's boobs.
But these people are going to make that a thing.
Whereas we have Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Bobert.
We have the president of the United States who are all huge fans of QAnon, which is an absolute nut obsessed conspiracy theory.
These are the people egging people on every time a movie with Tom Hanks has any social media on it.
All the replies to that movie's debut are Tom Hanks is a murderer pedophile who needs to be executed and get over his crimes.
And no one ever brings this up.
No one ever says Republicans call Tom Hanks a murderous pedophile.
Like there's this really awesome thing that we have in our media where the Republican nuts are not Republicans, but nuts who are not Democrats are Democrats.
It's just really great that we've created this heads we win, tails you lose thing where every annoying thing that happens from the left is literally the fault of Chuck Schumer and whoever the Democratic frontrunner for president might be in your head at this moment.
And shit that is literally the stuff Donald Trump is fucking propping up and like making a thing.
This whole Russiagate bullshit is literally just catnip for QAnon.
It's just literally Trump throwing red meat to his nut base.
And no one's talking about it from that perspective.
No one's saying, wow, our White House has been hijacked by crazy people.
They're just like, oh, that goofy Trump says he's going to arrest Obama again.
Ain't that wacky.
The official White House account is posting QAnon memes.
Yes.
Anyone else posted about some of these memes, which is hilarious.
Stephen Chung, actually, like the White House, one of the White House guys, one of the communications people, Stephen Chung, 47, said, cancel culture, run amok.
This warped moronic and dense liberal thinking is a big reason why Americans voted the way they did in 2024.
They're tired of this bullshit.
And it's like rabid.
Every time I see something from him, it's the most aggressive shit I've ever seen in my life.
Right.
It's actually hilarious because there are these multiple actually people tied with the Trump administration who have commented on the Sydney Sweeney thing and actual multiple Republicans.
And I've yet to see an actual sitting Democrat talk about this.
Right.
I mentioned this earlier, the Joe Walsh post where he said, this is what he posted.
A message I just got from a buddy of mine who's a longtime Democratic Party campaign consultant.
Quote, this Sydney Sweeney thing is the kind of thing that turns men away from our party.
It's why men think our party is weak and insane.
My response to him, fuck yeah it is.
You are exactly right.
And it's like, nobody's talking about this man.
Joe Walsh is a fucking never Trump Republican.
So he doesn't know.
I mean, Joe Walsh and his fictional Democratic buddy.
Yeah, literally.
It's like those Republican influencers who can't stand in a line at the store without overhearing a conversation about how Kamala Harris turned them away from the Democratic Party.
Right.
Right.
Exactly.
It's Selena Vito at the gas station listening to people talk about how they can't stand DEI anymore.
Yeah.
It's all that fucking horse shit.
But.
I do want to say one positive thing that Cindy Sweeney is donating her portion of the money from these jeans that she's selling American Eagle to the to the crisis text line, which is a which is like a suicide prevention hotline, which is very important.
The jeans technically are like their domestic violence like awareness brand, which is also like.
Yeah.
This course is another layer of.
Yeah.
They got like a butterfly on them, which I guess is supposed to be a symbol for domestic violence awareness.
I haven't heard that before, but but I'll keep an eye out.
I guess.
But.
We're talking about bro science.
Yes.
Boob is part of bros.
I just I just wanted to end that on a positive note.
Bros loves boobs.
And this is the bro episode.
We're broing down bros.
The thing that got me into this.
I texted the bros.
was like bros we have to do an episode on bro science because i watched a thing about power balance which was like these bracelets that kind of had like a era of like being a phenomenon there they were the laboo boos of like the 2006 2007.
I think you've brought these up before on the podcast.
This sounds really familiar.
I probably brought this up while being like, dude, we got to do this episode because I watched this.
I watched this mini YouTube, like, like whatever you want to call it, documentary about the power balance and how like a bunch of celebrities were pushing it.
A bunch of sports people were pushing it and basically claiming like it heals you like it has like hologram energy that heals you and makes you good at sports.
And there was like this weird era where everybody wore them.
I remember like the jockey kids wearing these.
Bill Clinton, you know, showed off.
He talked about the benefits of power balance.
It does jack shit.
It's nothing.
It's a fucking rubber bracelet with some fucking shiny shit on it.
But it's just one of those things that like bro science.
It's kind of bro science.
See, so I think it's like when Walgreens was selling those magnetic bracelets.
They were supposed to like attune your chakra or something like that.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, that was the thing.
And like there was also I remember there was NFL teams talking about how they had these mouth guards that would like align your skull and actually like realign your neck and give you better balance.
And it was all kinds of stuff that people were talking about.
I think there's a lot of bracelets that are hawked by like woo like grifters that are like this will fix all your problems.
I've gotten like kind of I was like a renaissance fair and a lady like was like, oh, this bracelet will help your migraines if you put oils on it.
And it's like leave me alone.
You know, like the power balance is a like hologram bracelet, which is like a component of a bigger scam.
So, yeah.
Mike, you probably know a lot of these.
You're into sports.
Oh, there's like I think my favorite of all these like scams and like things that don't really matter is like cupping where you like put these like cups all over your back and like basically like draw blood to like those areas of your muscles.
So you end up with all these circular bruises all over your back and it's supposed to like speed blood to like all those areas of your body to like encourage healing and stuff like that.
Is that like crystal healing or something?
No, this but this actually generates a physical reaction because you can you can see all these.
I think like Michael Phelps like did it in the Olympics one year and you can see all these circular bruises on his back from all the cupping that he did.
And it was just like, yeah, of course, like you guys think that this is a real thing.
And I'm I'm sure someone's going to come at me like, yeah, cupping actually works and blah, blah, blah.
It's like everything I've seen about it says it's quackery.
I mean, literally that is in the first paragraph.
It calls it quackery.
And, you know, it feels good because I do like warm things essentially like they kind of like warm up a cup with a flame briefly and then immediately put it on your back.
And it kind of it's really quick heat.
So it's not like burning hot, but it does like the suction that's created like does kind of pull your skin a little bit.
It all down your back.
They'll put it.
I you I'll see it in like like celebrity like red carpet photos because some of them do it.
And you'll see it on their back when they like turn around because their dresses are usually celebrities are just they'll jump onto any fad craze that's out there.
Yeah, they really do.
Yeah, they really do.
And a lot of them like promote it.
I kind of realized that when watching some of the other stuff that we've covered, that there is always like some celebrities that'll promote it.
And Madonna was in the Kabbalah.
So all these other people were like, yeah, me too.
Yeah, that's like a religion, though, isn't it?
Yeah, it's yeah, it's kind of it's kind of like what Gnostic Christianity is to regular Christianity.
Kabbalah is to Judaism.
I do remember that phase, though.
There was that.
I feel like that was also in this era of like what the power balance and a lot of this other like like energy.
Yeah, there was a lot of spiritualism going on about like 10, 20 years ago.
Yeah.
And it's kind of morphed into something way different, which we'll get into, because when we talked about this episode, we're like the liver king and Rogan thing happened.
And he's very like bro sciencey, both of them, actually.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, that's that's like Rogan.
That's how beyond his just his podcast.
That's the other way he makes all his money is like his bro, his bro supplement on it.
Like on it is his like big thing where he's like all these guys.
It is the most magical thing in the world.
listening to an episode of knowledge fight and you just have Alex Jones like screaming about how the world is going to end and how we're literally battling Satan.
And then 20 seconds after he says that, he's like, look, you got to keep me in the game.
You got to buy my dick pills.
gotta buy all this shit triple patriot points and it's just everything is just a build to a plug yeah it's literally all it is and you need to keep us in the game patreon.com slash poker politics totally just absolute soulless bullshit it's like so funny where it's just the obvious the obvious result of everything this person says is buy my shit and help me out and by the way my my shit is in the supplements industry which is horribly unregulated
I can be giving you absolute crap in a bottle that is literally a placebo.
It doesn't matter.
It just doesn't matter.
Yeah, but they always dress it up by, like, making it sound science-y, by being, like, you know, by saying, like, it's got probiotics and carbohydrates, you know.
Yeah, it's got, like, chopped liver nutrients.
It's got electrolytes, which plants crave.
But that's, okay, so Liver King is definitely big in the bro science, like, universe.
And I have no clue who Liver King is, so if you could give me a little background, please.
Liver King was basically, like, a social media guru guy who got big, yeah, got big by being, like, like, the way I do this is just eating raw meat.
And just living the way our, like, living the way Caveman did, where you, like, killed an animal, then you just, like, gorged on its flesh for as long as you could.
So, like, the extreme end of the paleo diet sounds like.
Right, just like, yeah, just insane paleo diet.
And, of course, because he's the Liver King, he was all about eating liver.
Like, you just eat livers hard.
And then people were like, by the way, like, your body cannot be, the body you have cannot be achieved by the lifestyle you're talking about.
You have to be on massive quantities of steroids.
Yeah.
And.
Oh, he had roid gut?
Oh, yeah.
It's like abs on top of the roid gut kind of.
Yeah.
And as Haley just said about Wikipedia pages, like, his opening is literally one paragraph.
And at the end of that paragraph is, though he claimed not to rely on anabolic steroids or other supplements, it was revealed in 2022 that Johnson had spent more than $11,000 a month on steroids.
A month.
A month.
Just jamming over five figures worth of steroids in his body a month.
I'm like, I don't make them, you know, it's like, I don't make $11,000 a month, let alone spend it.
Right.
On roids to keep your horribly unnatural body in its horribly unnatural state.
Yeah, like, okay, Liver King is one of those guys.
Like, there's so many of these guys that they promote this incredibly, like, viral heavy lifestyle.
These, like, I'm only eating raw meat and I'm eating animal meat and that's what's making me like this.
And then secretly, like, or like, and then on the thing that's actually making him money is the supplements that he's also promoting.
It's like, if you just eat raw meat and take my supplements that I myself have essentially, like, not, like, created.
And it, it, this is the whole market is they pretend like they create these supplements when really they just kind of, like, pick the things that they want to go in the thing that they're going to be hawking.
Um, and like, it is this just, it's kind of the Alex Jones grift, but with this, like, Jordan Peterson style, like, only eating meat shit.
At least Jordan Peterson cooks the meat.
Um, but when Liver King came back from the, uh, I think he accidentally exposed the steroid thing.
I think he sent, like, an email to the wrong person and, like, that person that got the email exposed it.
Uh, I'm pretty sure that's what happened, but he went dark for a while.
And then when he came back, he brought back the Liver King personality online and, like, started to incorporate his kids way more into it and, like, have them eat the raw meat.
So, like, truly a fucking freak.
Yeah.
And then with the Rogan.
Definitely trial exploitation.
Yeah, literally.
No, literally.
Um, and then with the Rogan thing, like, I don't know.
I don't exactly know why he was, like, pissed at Rogan.
Uh, Rogan has seemed to, like, not been a fan of Liver King.
I think Rogan cooks his meat, so there's one that's struck against him right there.
Yeah.
And he didn't have him on his show.
Like, Rogan didn't have him on his show when he wanted to be on it.
I don't know.
Because I know Rogan's big into all that stuff.
Like, he, like, he brags about how he hunts all his own meat and stuff.

Oh yeah, like, that's what, I've seen a bunch of like UFC guys who live in the Midwest where it's just nothing but fucking like planes and there's like no civilization around you.
And those guys always have just a giant fridge in their basement where they have all this venison and all this shit.
And they're just like, yeah, this is all the like wild murdered meat I eat because it's like healthy and shit.
And it's like, can't you just, I mean, I get it.
Like, whatever.
You need to spend like $10,000 on your compound bow or whatever to be a real man.
If this is really what you need to do to like live your life, can't you just go somewhere where there's like water and fish and just catch a bunch of fish and be like, yeah, here's my wild caught fish.
I'm going to eat them.
Fishing is not manly.
It's not me.
Fishing isn't manly enough.
I have to, I have to use my unbelievably complex weapon that I paid $11,000 for to kill an animal to prove that I'm a man.
And this thing has a 10,000 pound draw.
Right.
Exactly.
I, what was really funny.
I remember was like, I just, I saw this video like a couple of weeks ago.
They, they went to one of those, uh, untouched by civilization tribes in Africa and they showed them a compound.
Like the Sentinel Islands or whatever.
Right.
And they showed them like a compound bow and the tribes people like didn't give a fuck about the bow.
They cared about the arrows because they were just like, holy shit.
Cause for them making a really straight, really sharp arrow is really hard.
On impact.
Right.
Right.
Like they're like, yeah.
Well, they're like anything can be a fucking bow.
We don't give a shit about a bow.
What we need is fucking high quality arrows.
Yeah.
And one of the tribesmen like literally within a few minutes of getting the compound bow was already firing it properly.
So it wasn't like the compound bow was like really blowing their minds.
Pull the string, shoot the arrow.
Not hard.
Right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The technology on bows hasn't changed all that much as far as the actual action of it.
I mean, right.
Exactly.
Yeah.
But yeah, but it's just, it's all this crap where it's like, I have to do all this crazy stuff to kill an animal.
And then, well, that's the other thing is that like dressing a fish really isn't that manly, but like, I'm cutting up this deer.
Look how big a man I am.
And it's like, yeah, great.
Yeah.
I remember this gag in Gravity Falls.
It was like one of the really early episodes.
It shows this guy whose name, the guy's name is literally Manly Dan.
And he's in a fishing boat with his son, his sons.
And one of them is like, Dad, am I doing this right?
He's holding a fishing rod.
And he goes, no, this is how a man fishes.
And he jumps into the lake and starts punching the hell out of a fish.
Right.
Of course.
That's how it works.
That is.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know, with the all-mute thing, you know, it's like, like, Liver King clearly went mad.
Oh, really?
You didn't know?
He was like, mental evaluation.
He got arrested for threatening Rogan.
I'm guessing his botulism.
That kind of drives him mad.
He was making the video and like, one of his eyes was like, bigger than the other, like his pupils.
I think he maybe was fucked up or something.
But, uh, uh, and then Jordan Peterson similarly, like, went into a coma.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, yeah, that was the thing.
It's like, Jordan Peterson was like in a medically induced coma somewhere in Russia for like months.
And apparently his daughter, like, put him in that coma because he was on benzos.
And he was like, so fucked up on benzos.
Like the only way they could think to cure him was to knock him out for months on end and then bring him back.
Yeah.
Cold turkey.
Yep.
The ultimate cold turkey.
Is it out cold turkey?
Like these guys, like I remember, I looked up a picture of Liver King and he reminded me of this other wellness guru freak that I saw.
And I'm like, why do these guys always, they always have the same look like they've been living in the desert for 30 years.
They're like, they, they, they, they have like no, you know, they, they don't seem to be retaining any water at all.
Their, their skin looks like beef jerky.
And it's like, what the hell are they doing with themselves?
Yeah.
It looks like a white person in Arizona.
It just stays out too long.
Yeah.
Another like bro science thing that I've, you've probably seen Mike, because the guy that I follow here locally that promotes it is a QAnon person.
His, um, he's that certified health nut.
Troy Casey, like ripped at 50 guy who like slaps his balls and drinks his own piss.
Yeah.
I thought Liver King was that guy at first.
Cause when I saw the picture of him, I remember that video of the gut of, of him sitting in front of a fire and smacking his balls around.
Yeah.
They kind of look similar.
The ripped at 50.
They got the scraggly beard and the, and the, and the skinny starved look about.
Um, the piss drinking thing though, is definitely something that I've been noticing a bit more often in these circles.
Uh, Oh yeah.
The certified health nut guy like ferments his, uh, and like drinks it over time.
From what I've seen, there's a big, there's a big, uh, schism about that.
Some people say, no, you have to drink your piss immediately.
And others are like, no, it's best to age it.
Some people give out their piss.
Some people are like, my piss is good piss.
Drink my piss.
Um, I, I've seen some like truly horrific.
Cause I was following this account.
I told you about him.
He's on a blue sky.
Now.
Uh, I think it's AVK.
I think it is something like that, but, uh, he's always posting piss drinking stuff.
And it's the saddest shit.
Like this person's like, my son cries whenever I try to put eye drops of his own urine in.
What can I do to, to make it more, to, to, to make it so he's not so upset by getting his own piss poured into his eyeballs.
I'm not even making, I mean, I, I, I'm exaggerating what the person said, but they were literally asking for advice on how to put their son's piss into his own eyeballs.
Uh, yeah.
And, and, and then you call a fucking, uh, child protective services.
So that's the thing is like with the, the same thing I like, like liver King was like started to put his kids into a lot of his content.
Like this certified health nut guy also puts his kids in this content.
I've never seen them engage in piss stuff, but a lot of the other weird, like bro science shit that he promotes, like fake horse shit.
And I just, I have to bring him up because one, the urine, they call it like urine therapy.
Yeah.
He calls it shivambu, which I think is like what, um, uh, like, um, like yoga people call it.
Um, what, like, like people who do yoga or, uh, like kind of the more like that kind of, what do you call it?
Like a new age woo.
Yeah.
I don't really know where the term comes from, but that's what he refers it to.
And he, when he says that he means piss drinking, um, and recently there was an event here in Arizona that was like some turning point USA guys and Mike Tyson and Tito Ortiz and the piss drinker.
Um, and it was like, they were doing a like conference on holistic healthcare in education, which is wild.
It's like, this guy drinks piss.
Um, but like local news covered it like as if it was a normal event.
And that made me just about lose my fucking mind.
Cause that guy is actually like a QAnon guy.
QAnon anonymous actually covered him on their man clan series, I think.
Um, but do you see that Mike?
Do you see QAnon people talking piss?
No, not really.
Uh, QAnon, the, the main thing I've seen from QAnon people is, uh, paleo and, and, and other, and other woo bullshit that would normally be again, this is stuff that's like liberal hippie coded and is turned right wing over the course of time.
Um, I, remember uh the authority before he got kicked off Twitter and then just like quit being a part of this scene.
He was talking about being hardcore into a carnivore diet.
Brian Cates has this.
He has this great post, which I immediately looked up before we started doing this episode because it is so crunchy hippie bullshit that if this was written 10 years ago, oh my god, would you have tore this guy a new asshole for aligning his chakras and being a goddamn new age Obama lover?
But here's his post.
What happens when you are 370 pounds and you adopt a low carb, real food, high red meat, high protein diet and do intermittent fasting for 20 hours a day?
And to this, you add daily walking on grass barefoot in the sun every morning and get about an hour at the swimming pool a couple times a week.
Well, if you're me, you lose 90 pounds in about six months and you make this kind of transformation.
And then he has a, and then he has two photos of uh fat Brian Cates and then alarmingly tanned and skinnier Brian Cates.
And just just imagine, just imagine Donald Trump going down that escalator in 2015 or 2016, whenever it was he declared his campaign.
And then you go on Twitter and someone says, I love Donald Trump.
And you know what else I love doing?
Walking on grass barefoot in the sun every morning.
And you'd be like, what happened?
How did you get there?
But now, now the walking barefoot in the grass and the morning people are MAGA.
I mean, this is their world now.
This weird communing with nature form of exercise is.
I think they call it grounding.
The walking barefoot thing.
Yeah.
The grounding sounds exactly right.
Yeah.
Okay.
The grounding people, though.
So it's like, I mean, I think everybody should touch grass.
Yeah.
I mean, but I mean, these guys are claiming that there's like that, like you're drawing an energy from the earth or some geomantic bullshit like that.
Not only that.
Oh, you're tapping ley lines, motherfucker.
Yeah, it leaks into the ley line stuff.
Like when you get into the like more MAGA conspiratorial Maha, the make America healthy again.
Yeah, but also the Maha people with the grounding will do it even when they sleep in the sense that they get these plugs that they they if they put it well it only plugs into the part of your outlet that is the ground outlet.
You know how like yeah uh and they plug it into their bed so they are always grounding.
And it is like you can get mats that like like help like adapt to the plug so that like they're grounding when they sleep.
And I'm like, okay, this is just bullshit.
They're not.
Yeah.
And that's not how grounding works in electronics.
So unfortunately, they're very unlikely to burn their house down just by just plugging into ground, but they're not doing anything else either.
No, there's so many ways that like this can go wrong.
Someone's had to have died trying to ground their bed.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Plugging into the wrong spot or something and electrocuting themselves.
Yeah.
Oh, this was the other thing I saw.
Oh, this is also from the Flat Earth channel that was talking about fighting Nephilim in Afghanistan.
I just truly love how all channels, all timelines on Twitter are all just one account.
Like no one can ever stay in their own lane.
Everyone has to become the omni-cause.
Whatever side you're on, you have to support all the bullshit of that side, no matter what.
And this post from Flat Out Truth is build a giant golden bell on the White House lawn.
Ring it 12 times at noon daily.
Its frequency will expose reptilians and demons and send waves of healing energy across America.
And then they have this AI shit slop art of a golden bell hanging from a golden cue.
And of course, this idiot watermarked his Twitter handle on it because you can't let other people take your AI slop without fucking compensating you for it.
They better attribute AI slop to its rightful AI slop generator.
But yeah, healing energy of bells radiating across America while attacking the reptiloids.
No bell.
Why not at least put it like in the most central position in America?
Somewhere in the Great Plains or something.
Yeah, that bell should be in Topeka, Kansas.
That's where the bell needs to be fucking doing work, doing work where it can do work best.
Like, where are all the like, because I mean, these people think that California is red, but if we would but clean the voter rolls.
Why are all the Patriots in Red California being denied the healing waves?
I saw someone, because you know, they've had that whole thing with Texas wanting to redistrict.
And so this one guy proposed his own map to redistrict California that would basically cut out every single red district in the state.
And all these people, oh my God, they're like, they're like, that can never happen once you get rid of all the illegal voters.
Exactly, exactly.
Yep, of course.
You know it.
Eric, I would like you to talk about ball tanning.
Okay.
The floor is yours.
Talk about some tanned balls.
Why do you tan your balls?
Naturally, I take off all my clothes except for one sock so that I can be because I only like to partial ground.
I don't, you know, I don't want to, I don't want to be greedy and take too much energy from the earth.
That's good.
Yeah.
Yeah, you have the, you have the ball tanning.
You have the butthole tanners, the people who like get on their backs and like lift their bums up to the sun and get their get their asshole a nice golden brown.
And if it's too brown, then you bleach your asshole.
Yes, yes, exactly.
There's a lot of asshole aesthetics going on in America right now.
It's very, very disconcerting.
You remember?
Yeah, yeah.
Tucker, yeah.
He had that guy with the fucking UV stand radiating his balls.
And I love how he had the, he was in a crucifixion position as he's doing it.
Yeah, he's like, Jesus, tan my balls.
Like on the edge of a cliff.
Yeah.
Yes, you too.
Here comes a podcast tips from ACAST.
Hi.
That's not your mission.
I'm sorry, it was just like, you know...
is this a Hollywood blockbuster movie?
What the fuck am I looking at?
But yeah, I actually found, cause I was, I, I, on, on PubMed, which, you know, Oh, I just turned off everybody who hates, you know, who hates science.
But I found this thing.
They were saying that after that Tucker Carlson thing, the, the amount of searches for ball tanning, it went up by roughly 7,000%.
Yeah.
Like men were just like, oh my God, my balls are pale.
I need to do something about this.
Yeah.
I need my scrotum to have a nice leathery hue to it.
That's what the ladies are looking for.
Yeah.
So, and it's all this thing.
It's, I mean, basically, it all comes down to just these manly men being obsessed with their penises.
They think that that's like, it's, it's, it's like, you know, if your body's the ark of the covenant, then your penis is the mercy seat where God is sitting.
Oh, dear God.
It's dangerous, isn't it?
It's like, it's, and it's, it's like dangerous to tan those.
Like yeah, I found uh whole.
Yeah, I found an article from a urologist who was talking about testicular tanning.
And uh, she was saying, because some people were saying, like, you know, you get a lot, it gives you a lot of vitamin D directly into your scrotum, which increases your testosterone.
And the woman was like, okay, you get enough to, you get enough.
You get, you get, uh, she's like, yes, you can increase testosterone with vitamin D, but you get enough just from walking around during the day with your clothes on.
You know, you don't have to be stripping down and getting your balls all worked out.
And so guys are like pointing red lights at themselves and stuff.
And so she goes, bottom line, don't go to tanning beds to get your scrotums tanned and don't buy expensive red lights to help improve your testosterone.
Malik concludes.
That's the doctor's name.
Instead, get exercise, eat a healthy diet, go out in the sunlight for walks, get good sleep, and avoid BPA-containing products.
So basically, anything you would normally do for a healthy lifestyle, that will also help your nuts.
It's literally the most basic stuff, like to be healthy, but these people promote these like super.
It's okay.
I'm not going to lie.
Everything that we're talking about right now has like, we're talking about bro science, but I also like do entertain myself with a lot of the like trad wives and maha women.
There's a Turning Point USA content creator who like her whole thing is like all like the pseudoscience health bullshit.
And like everything that the men are currently being like sold, like this like, this is how you're masculine.
You have to eat meat, you know, eat raw meat.
The female equivalent, you know, the people that are like preaching like Maha Mom stuff are talking about like you have to take these pills that are like, you know, like beef, you know, raw beef pills.
And then they're really into beef tallow, like to cook everything in beef tallow.
And also just like a lot of the, it's like, you don't need to do like skincare anymore.
Just put beef tallow all over your face.
Yeah.
And I kind of get that in that because, you know, they hate seed oils, so they got to cook with something.
Yeah, it is.
It's anti-seed oil stuff, which is also in the mail.
The men say it'll make you, you know, if you avoid seed oils, it'll make you more masculine.
The women say if you avoid the seed oils, it'll make you more feminine.
It's literally the same slot being sold.
It's like the same like pills being sold.
It's like, oh, just do this thing, this weird fucking diet, and then also take these pills.
And it's all the same companies generally making the pills.
It's kind of just like, it's almost MLM.
It's like we're dealing with like people kind of selling like this downline of these same products, these same scam products, these same scam bracelets and whatnot.
Oh, yeah.
But just like marketing it to their audience and like, I'm doing raw meat.
I'm doing piss.
I'm doing just like the big corporations they hate do, just retailing for the audience.
Yeah.
It's literally, yeah, it's literally, it's just like.
And I love how these guys are all anti-science.
They think anything that comes out of like the CDC is bullshit.
But, but they're convinced that this one hormone, testosterone, is the seat of masculinity.
You know, you were, because we're talking about like the like super buff, like hyper masculine kind of guys.
But you mentioned the interview with Nick Fuentes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I was waiting to get into that.
Because this is the, this is the, this is like the opposite end of masculinity that is currently being sold to young men is what we're about to talk about.
Um, it's not like the hyper buff like liver king, like Joe Rogan, like the biggest fuck you can find.
It's kind of twinky.
It's a little bit, it's a little bit like femmboy.
It's like Nick Fuentes openly tells his audience like not to be buff, to be like thin.
And like, because he's, you know, but explain the interview that you saw.
Okay.
So I can't remember the guy's name, but he's in, he's into this thing called what?
It's, it's like, it's like clav.
Yeah, something like that.
He's, he's into this thing that they call looks maxing, which I, from the little looking around, I did, looks maxing sounds like basically a beauty regimen like a woman would have, you know, put your makeup on, you know, moisturize at night, that stuff.
But are they muling?
Are they working their jawline?
Yeah, that's the core component.
Yeah, but, you know, you do like the contouring and all that kind of stuff.
But, but since beauty regimen sounds girly, they got to come up with a manly name for it.
So they call it looks maxing.
And then I have seen like from this guy, like, apparently he has a video where he tells 13-year-olds how to buy anabolic steroids behind their parents' back so that they can, you know, so that they can have, from what you're saying, it sounds like they're trying to go for like the swimmer's build more kind of look.
Yeah.
Like the sleek and sexy rather than rather than Schwarzenegger and his prime deal.
Mike just mentioned it.
Explain mewing.
So basically the idea is, is that you want to improve your jawline.
So you do these exercises of your tongue and your mouth and you're also like pressing on your jaw with your finger and like tracing your jaw along your jawline with your finger.
Oh yeah, this guy did say he wanted to get double mandible surgery to give himself like that that Chad jawline.
Yeah, that impossible jawline that Chad guy has.
Right.
Yeah.
It's what's it's really funny.
These people are like obsessed with jawlines and people that they have like good looking facial structures.
There's that clip from Fury where Brad Pitt like points at the guy says, yo, shoot that guy.
And then they shoot the German who was killing the kids.
And I saw in one of the comments, someone was like, that German had a jaw you could cut glass with.
And it's just like, yeah, he's a Hollywood guy who's literally on screen because he looks attractive for the five seconds he's going to be there before he gets blown away.
And yeah, he's going to have a good jawline.
Yeah, weird, weird that.
But yeah, they're like, oh man, that impeccable form.
I was just going to say that you're totally right with it.
In the way that Joe Rog-or not even Joe, it's like Liver King and those hyper-ripped guys, they're selling a type of eating disorder.
This is the opposite end where a lot of these guys are kind of selling eating disorder tips for men to achieve that very chiseled jaw kind of skinnier body but fit.
And it is kind of disturbing.
I don't know.
You know, it's a common thing you see.
You've always been like thrown at in women's spaces.
But like it is interesting to see how much like basically like eating disorder and like dangerous diet culture is being sold to young boys right now.
That's the thing.
I got nothing against a man trying to look as good as he can.
Like I even like, I mean, like if it was something that was done in the 80s, I would probably, you know, put on some makeup to just to spruce up my face.
But it's like, yeah, but these guys get into these really, really unhealthy stuff to meet the, and like women do, like the whole anorexia thing, you know, trying to meet this impossible ideal of attractiveness.
And they're ruining their bodies and their lives to do it.
And I looked it up.
Yeah.
The guy's name is like, I'm not sure if I'm pronouncing it right, but it's like clavicular.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So I guess he's really proud of his collarbone or something.
Well, yeah.
So, okay.
A reason too, this isn't just like in the sense that it's like, they are obsessed with their like looks, which I also think is, I think it's fine to like be like, you know, like want to look pretty.
Yeah.
These guys do take it too far though, in the sense that they are promoting like eating disorder culture, which I do see in the mass sphere a lot.
Like a lot of the tips that the women give are straight up just like, they are, they're pro anorexia tips.
But with the male stuff though, like this looks maxing stuff, it is, they're doing, you'll see these terms like gene cuck, which is basically what they say like to a, they're describing an ugly guy.
And a lot of it is this like genetic predisposition kind of language, the sort of eugenesis language.
Yeah.
So like there is this sort of like, you know, obviously there's a racial component, like the clav guy got kind of
canceled when he was doing his normal bro culture because he did say essentially like that a black guy couldn't out mog him, which means like outlook him out, like dominate him in this kind of like sphere because like he was implying that like white people are the top as far as like looks.
Right.
So it really quickly like delves into that.
And a lot of it is like, one does was talking about incel stuff in that interview.
Wasn't he?
He was, it was, he got some backlash because, because, you know, his, his fan base are all these incels and they're like, why are you trying to make yourself look more attractive?
That's, that's not incel culture.
And he's like, look, I'm going to still, I'm going to still try to be an incel.
And I'm like, how do you try to be an incel?
You're a cell then.
Yeah.
Or you're a vol cell.
Yeah.
That's what I'm saying.
I'm like, I'm like, if you're trying to be an incel, then that cuts out the whole involuntary part.
But also this is the dual kind of like kind of incel cultures is that there is the incels that kind of lean into like, I'm ugly and I'm never going to find a woman.
I'm bald.
And all the things that they like complain about in incel culture.
And then there's the ones that are in this looks maxing kind of world.
And so there is like some of the incel stuff is in this because it is like this, like, Oh, I'm gene cucked.
I like, I'll never be beautiful.
And a lot of these edits in this subculture, they call them BP edits.
It's black pill edits.
And it's not like being black pilled about politics.
It's being black pilled about your looks.
So like the edits, a lot of them play to this ABBA song winner takes all because the lyrics go, the winner takes it all.
The loser standing small.
And in these edits, it'll play like kind of these like chads with the hard jawlines.
And then when it says the, the loser standing small will show like normal dudes.
But in these edits, it's not the hot guys making them generally.
It's more these guys that have low self-esteem and they are in this scenario, kind of the ugly guy in the line where it says the loser standing small.
So it's kind of like self-flagellation.
Yeah.
And it is also part of this incel culture where it's like, I can never look like these guys with the jaws.
Then the abs who get the ladies, because I'm genetically predispositioned to look ugly and never get girls, which is a key kind of thinking in incel culture.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And it's, and it's, I just want to say, cause like, I'm kind of glad incel culture didn't exist when I was young.
Cause I think I might've fallen into it.
Cause I did have kind of that mindset when I was younger that I'm, I'm never going to meet anybody.
I'm never, I'm going to be lonely my whole life.
And, and I'm, and I'm very upset about it, but, but it's like, okay, but now I'm married and I have a kid.
And so, I mean, it's like, it's, I'm sorry.
it's like, I keep saying this is this, this is this impossible standard that everybody feels they have to live up to all the time.
And it creates these toxic environments.
And then some people decide they're going to capitalize on it and make money from it by, by doing all this, you know, you just got to take anabolic steroids and only eat one meal a week kind of stuff.
Um, yeah.
And it's interesting cause it's like with the, the videos, this like incel content, this like kind of going on the like video format with Tik TOK.
I do see, uh, like them kind of weaponizing that like videos of guys kind of being like, you know, just like normal looking guys being like, listen, guys, you can like, anybody can find somebody.
Like if you have a good personality and you can take care of yourself and and then the edit goes like mobbed and it shows like all these guys and it's like you will never be anything and it is literally feeding into the insecurities that like young guys have yeah um and like kind of like telling them like you are correct about those horrible thoughts that you have about that you'll never find anybody.
And it is really, honestly, the most disturbing form of like.
Yeah, just hearing you describe it sounds really brutal.
Yeah, no, it is.
It's like the things that like, like, young guys are kind of, it's like, Joe Walsh was like, oh, this is what, like, Democrat Party losing, losing male because big boobies.
And it's like, actually, I think that like men are currently dealing with a lot, especially online.
Like young, young boys are getting fed really horrible stuff.
And like, it is intentionally trying to pull them into like really horrible subcultures, like neo-Nazi shit.
Like neo-Nazis particularly go after kids.
So yeah, I don't know.
I don't know how I got to the start point.
I just, I think it was Matt Walsh said something to the effect of he's like, yeah, I got my, I got my wife and blah, blah, blah.
And then Andrew Tate was like, yeah, you married your high school sweetheart.
You don't know what a real man is.
Like, I, I fuck all these women, even though half the time when I'm tweeting, I talk about how sex is with women is gay.
And it's just Andrew, like Andrew Tate's masculinity is so bizarre and toxic.
It's so bizarre and toxic and also incredibly temporary because it's just this thing where today's ultra masculine thing is tomorrow you're a fucking cuck for doing it.
It's so bizarre.
Get the girl you're looking for.
Use my proven tactics.
And then Smash Cut to a week later, oh, you're obsessed over getting one girl.
What a fucking loser you are.
It's just like, oh my God.
Because he's got to keep producing new content, which means he's got to contradict himself eventually.
Pretty much.
You can only go down the, oh man, I forget what it was called.
You can only go down hookup culture so many times.
You got to come up with something fresh.
I don't know how the like, I don't know, I don't know.
You have a little kid.
You have a boy.
Like, I feel like I'd be nervous raising a young kid on the internet today.
Just like the shit that they get fed.
It's like there's beauty standards on like a level of steroids I couldn't have even imagined.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, yeah, and it's, yeah, it's a lot of, it's a lot of monitoring.
I mean, not like I sit over his shoulder and look and keep an eye on everything he does, but I do like, I watch out like a lot of times when he's watching stuff, I'll be in the room with him and I'll keep an ear out.
If I hear a bad word, I'll say, turn that off or something like that.
I mean, he's not, he, he's not an age yet where I really got to worry about that kind of masculinity stuff because he's too young to give a shit about being manly.
But, but there, there, there is still a lot of stuff out there, especially because like I always point out to people, YouTube, YouTube basically expects people to self-enforce their videos.
So if somebody like has a video that has the N-word in it and they don't bother marketing it as not safe for kids, then my son will see it.
You know, so it, so there is a lot of monitoring that has to be done.
And I even ended up, I set up my own Roblox account when he set up a Roblox account because that's how Roblox made it.
If you want to monitor their Roblox activity, you got to have your own account to monitor it from.
So I have my own account and every now and then he'll invite me to play a game with him.
And I keep an eye out to make sure he's not going into anything that everything goes into is safe.
There's no, you know, that because they are a bit better about policing.
They, they will, you know, they will block out certain words from being from being used and stuff.
I remember this daughter of a friend of mine, she was, I was watching her one time and she was, and she was playing this Brookhaven, which is a real popular Roblox experience.
And she was telling me, yeah, I tried to put a sign that says all lives matter and the game wouldn't let me.
And then I had to have it sit down, talk with her and explain to her what the problem is with the phrase all lives matter because she's young enough that she took it at face value.
And she's like, yes, everybody is important.
And that's a good message.
So I had to be like, no, it's been appropriated by some people to use it as a racist message.
So yeah, so I do feel a little safer about him being on Roblox for stuff like that.
But I'm sorry I went off on a screed like that, but it is something I think about a lot as a parent.
No, you're the parent here.
And like, you know, I honestly love that your nails are painted for this episode.
So they're talking about masculinity and you're a dad and you're married and you're the thing that like, you know, they're always saying like, I don't know, it's just like the nail thing.
It's like they would be like, oh, you never would be considered masculine in these spaces, but it's like, you fit into the stereotype of also what they view as masculine with.
Yeah.
I mean, why kids?
I know.
I laugh about that.
I'm like, I'm sure that most people on the street when they see me assume I'm a MAGA because I'm, I'm a white male.
I'm in my 40s.
You know, I, I, I have a, I, I have a, I, I have a large body type.
So I, so I, yeah, I, I, I'm, I'm kind of intimidated naturally.
I think it's funny, but people, like, I will see people like cross the street when they see me and just just walking down the street just because I, I have, I have resting bitch face too.
That doesn't help at all.
So like, I, cause like, literally, like, I, I, I tend to walk faster than normal and I'm large.
And I, and so like, like, I remember I, I was at this job and this guy, this guy comes walking up to me, goes, goes, I seriously thought you were on your way to kick somebody's ass when I saw you.
I'm like, yeah, I just have that air about me, unfortunately.
That sounds magical.
I, I have, my problem is that I would die in the Terminator world because every dog just barks at me.
Whenever I'm walking around my neighborhood, if anyone's going to dog, that dog is just like, ah, it's just, they're like, they're like, no, no, calm down.
And I'm just like, Jesus Christ.
Like, every dog just sees me and immediately they're just all over me.
They're absolutely out of their fucking minds.
If I had like a, if I had like a montage of that shit and somehow went online, Alex Jones would be like 100% demon-possessed.
Dogs can tell.
This man is 100% enthralled to Satan.
Doesn't know it.
He needs Jesus.
Yeah, but it's, it's wild.
It's just wild how I earn the ire of any dog that I'm within 50 feet of.
That's actually got me wondering.
So is Alex Jones like straight out Nazi or is he kind of so he did kind of have a Nazi episode where he brought on Nick Fuentez.
And real quick, the reason why I asked this is because Hitler famously owned dogs and was a big fan of dogs.
Right, right, right, yeah.
But he basically had Nick on and through the course of the conversation they had, Alex was just sort of like, you know, I've been really careful about what I've been saying, but maybe I shouldn't be so careful.
It was just this big sort of wink and a nod to Nick that he's like, yeah, I might just become an open Nazi like you too, Nick.
It was really strange.
It was, it was really interesting that like that was the path he was going down.
And I mean, hey, whatever, whatever you're going to do, buddy.
Cause, I mean, it seems really weird that just like the legal limbo he's in.
And like he did have like one like 15 minute like nervous breakdown on air because he the funniest thing about all the shit he's doing to try to avoid his bankruptcy is that he talks about it on in detail on air.
So he's just admitting to like attempting crimes constantly.
And so he had like this one like 15 minute diatribe about how they're suing his dad because like he gave his dad so much shit illegally in the efforts of keeping it away from the creditors that were coming to take all this shit from him from his bankruptcy.
And he was and he was just like, my dad's got a bad heart.
They're trying to kill my dad.
And he basically declared that if they do kill his dad, he would summon the angel of death to kill them.
That he would, he's like, look, if you kill my dad with this lawsuit, that's fine.
I'm going to talk to God and God's going to send the angel of death to kill me.
That's my bro.
Me and God are very tight.
And when I need God to send his supernatural hitman to kill people, God will do that for me because me and God are super bros that way.
So if I tell you guys to paint an ex and landsblood on your door, you know what's happening.
Right, exactly.
Exactly.
This is all fucking happening.
Yeah.
So, yeah.
But just kind of kind of putting a bow on this whole episode.
It's really wild how we've just taken all this crippling mental illness and all this bullshit and all this quackery and we've just moved it politically to the right.
Like none of this shit should have a political base.
Like aligning your chakras and drinking miracle mineral solution and med beds and all of this stuff and all the bro science and all the nonsense about that.
None of this stuff should actually be on the left right spectrum, but we've done it.
We've moved all this shit to the right.
And now we've made all these crazy people right-wingers.
I mean, RFK Jr. being a big voice in our government is a terrible fucking idea.
And now we got like Shake Shack and all these companies being like, more beef tallow.
It's like, why?
And I love it.
Maybe good genetics.
I said, how about this disconnect?
Because you mentioned RFK, this disconnect that these guys have between what they say publicly and what they say when they're under oath.
Like when RFK Jr. was testifying before the sentence said, nobody should be taking medical advice from me.
Right.
And now I run America's fucking health fucking networks.
So it was so strange.
Yeah, it's the whole thing like, you know, whenever Fox gets sued and they're like, hey, no, you know, nobody's dumb enough to actually believe what we say on our channel.
So you can't sue us.
Right.
I do actually think, though, that, you know, it is important for like liberals, leftists, people who care about science, even if you don't care about any of the other political stuff, like to not let the right kind of hijack the healthcare conversation because they are just promoting pseudoscience.
Like that's the thing.
I hear a lot of people get kind of like entried in with the Maha stuff.
Like, I are like, or they don't.
That's a gateway drug.
Or they kind of even just give it the benefit of the doubt, even if they like hate MAGA.
They're like, well, some of the stuff that RFK says is like, I agree with like the, I don't agree with the red die 40.
And it's like, okay, but he thinks red die 40 is giving you autism.
You don't agree with him.
Yeah.
You don't agree with him.
You don't, you don't like red die 40 for legitimate reasons.
He doesn't like red die 40 for completely pseudoscientific reasons.
And it's fine if you like the red die 40 ban.
But the thing is, you can't let these people hijack the conversation because then they win.
Then they win and they backdoor these.
What they're actually talking about is like eugenicist shit.
A lot of the autism stuff that RFK talks about is horrific.
And the anti-vax stuff is also a topic that they are pretty hard normalizing with this pseudoscientific rhetoric.
Anti-LGBTQ stuff and anti-abortion.
I see that a lot in the Maha stuff is like they say like abortions will give you breast cancer and all this kind of stuff.
Like very pseudoscientific shit to just promote their own ideas that they already had and it's not actually healthcare.
And yeah, a lot of stuff they're promoting is dangerous.
So that's why I think it is important to kind of just like not let that get hijacked and kind of.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And a lot of the stuff that they do sounds reasonable on the face of it.
Like, oh, God, I lost what I was going to say.
I lost my train of thoughts.
Sorry.
So you feel the space.
They're like anti-IVF and like Maha people, they'll preach like anti-IVF stuff.
Which is just an extension of the abortion thing because when you do IVF, some of those fertilized eggs are not going to be put into the womb.
And that's their problem with it.
That's one of their problems with it.
And then you get into some of the more pseudo-scientific stuff.
And it's like, they're just talking bullshit.
They're just saying absolute bullshit.
Okay, I remember where I was going now.
So like they, they try to make it sound reasonable.
Like they're like, like they're talking about deregulating food and everything.
And they're like, hey, we're just trying to keep the government out of your lives so that you can make the best decision for your family.
And then you get shit like I saw yesterday.
This company had to recall their bottled water because they accidentally bottled their vodka products in it instead.
They bottled, they bottled vodka in Celsius cans.
Yeah, that was it.
I couldn't think of the brand name, but yeah, I remember Amanda Moore talking about it.
So I figured you guys would have seen that.
You know, like the raw milk thing is very popular.
Yeah.
And it's like, um, my mom heard about the raw milk thing and she's like, what's wrong with these people?
It's like actually my mom too.
I told my mom about the raw milk thing because I knew that she would find it disturbing because like she grew up on a farm and like, you know, a Mexican farm.
And it's like, that was like a thing she remembers and she hates milk.
She hates milk because she had raw milk like as a kid because that's what you had.
And it's like, uh, disgusting.
No, I don't want that.
Actually, I don't want to get sick for three months.
And they're talking about how, because they're talking about how there's some there's some chemical some lactose derivative in milk that gets destroyed during the during during the pasteurization.
Yeah, thank you.
my word's bad now um yeah during the pasteurization process and i guess there are health benefits to that but but it's like okay but it's also killing disease in that milk it's you gotta you gotta take the bad with the good you know it's the one that drive me mad or you see him like just squirt the shitty butter milk right in the cup and drink it it's like oh you're gonna kill your kid i'm sure i brought it up before but my favorite is this one guy who said you know raw milk is
perfectly safe if you boil it first and i'm like yeah yeah as long as you pasteurize it raw milk is great yeah you know that i again i watched some of the maha stuff because of the turning point lady and like she is pretty adamant about like even putting it in warm coffee is too much of pasteurizing so you drink your coffee on the side you drink your raw milk on the side so you don't warm it up yeah it's uh lactoferrin is
the protein in question and basically they've created this whole mythology around uh lactoferrin as being this super protein that if you uh ingest it it's going to basically make you a god and yeah and i've read there are health benefits to lactoferrin but it's yeah but it's not this holy grail of medical science that these people are saying it is yeah and and also when they get into lactoferrin they also
get into the fact that the rothschilds pushed for pasteurization because the because the evil jews wanted to keep you weak with the gray slop and all that good stuff more like luri pasteur steen yeah exactly all of that yeah uh yeah oh there's a oh there's a thread from a guy called fractured light which i'm sure that's going to be totally fucking not anti-semitic but uh yeah uh i wonder if another guy is like uh
igf1 lactoferrin b vitamins bacteria enzymes immunoglobins it's like if you want that shit you can just fucking get it you can go to cvs and fucking get those supplements yeah you can google lactoferrin and you'll you'll be able to buy the supplement off amazon yeah and you guys love supplements right exactly you can't get enough of them yeah go get your lactoferrin i mean it's not uh it's not hard this isn't hard i mean so
lacto yeah there we go lactoferrin supplement come
come on lactoferrin supplemented at arizon yeah boom uh yep 23 23.64 i can get my uh liposol bovine lactoferrin 1000 high absorption and then uh there's another one for 29 it's human x lactoferrin yes there we yeah if you want if you want your lactoferrin you can get it buddy yeah that's what i love about this is like they're hiding the cures from you it's like no they're not you can just buy it online it's
thinks that so enough a democratic party platform right the democratic party platform is that american american eagle jeans are literally fascists yeah all of that so uh yeah you anyhow thanks everyone for listening thanks to frosty and dj minimal effort for the bumps and the music and all that good stuff uh support the show by going to patreon.com slash poker politics throw money into the well and wish on that money and then nothing will happen because wishes are
