| 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 Reigns, aka Poker and Politics, and welcome to another episode of Adventures in Hellworld. | |
| This week I'm joined as always by Haley, aka Chaley, aka Arizona Right Watch. | |
| Congratulations, Mike, on your engagement to Taylor Swift. | |
| Thank you. | |
| Thank you. | |
| Long time coming. | |
| Appreciate you. | |
| Yes. | |
| And I'm also joined by Eric, the Deep State Operative. | |
| Hey, thanks for having me here. | |
| And Mike, thank you for being cool about me getting Shirley Manson on the uh uh damn it I totally screwed that joke up I had it so perfect in my head rebound rebound rebound like like the best part about that was is that after Haley said the thing about Taylor Swift to me I was going to mention that. | |
| I was going to be like, you know, that's usually not the pop star I'm associated with, but good that you caught that. | |
| And then you came in and I'm like, oh, he's going to do the bit. | |
| And then it just, we just crashed. | |
| And then I faced plummet. | |
| That's the landing. | |
| Beautiful. | |
| Just 10 out of 10. | |
| attend but uh i i posted i posted this on twitter but uh just so everyone knows exactly when this is being recorded um So garbage is coming. | |
| This is their last tour. | |
| They're all older than dirt. | |
| Shirley is the youngest member of the band and she's a spry, 59 years old. | |
| So, I mean, it's, this, I mean, if you didn't know this was happening, I don't, I don't know what to say. | |
| And that's why it's so funny when people were telling me like, I don't know if I should splurge for the VIP package. | |
| It's like, you're probably never going to see them again. | |
| And if you are, they're going to be an opening act for some other band. | |
| So they can go do a 30 minute set and leave because they're old. | |
| So, yeah. | |
| Oh, young for, oh, yeah. | |
| Yeah, their oldest guitarist is 74, which means basically he's got four terms in him easy according to Republicans right now. | |
| But his grandkids are coming to the show. | |
| Yes, exactly. | |
| So, but. | |
| One of the things that I had thought about, because I am doing the VIP, so I get to go like ask him a question in a Q ⁇ A and then go on stage for a photo. | |
| So one of the things I had talked to one of my friends who's a Packers fan, because all the guys from the band are from Wisconsin and they've brainwashed Shirley into being a cheesehead. | |
| And I had said to him, like, what jersey should I get to properly suck up to the band? | |
| And we like went over like old tiny Packers like Reggie White or New Guys. | |
| And then news broke that they just traded for Mika Parsons, like the best defensive player in the nfl the dallas cowboys are just absolute morons so it's like they probably won't have those ready but i can just go to the make your own jersey thing and just type in parsons type in his number and then just have them make that for me so i was like boom I know what jersey I'm getting now for that. | |
| So score it, baby. | |
| It's just like. | |
| I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if some entrepreneurial folk already have shirts out. | |
| Oh yeah, but they're like the $40 shirts from China that you wear them twice and they just melt off your body. | |
| Well, now they're $60. | |
| Yes. | |
| Yeah, you want your knockoff NFL jerseys. | |
| You're going to pay the Trump tax. | |
| That's crazy. | |
| We have to have it shipped through like five different countries because half the world won't ship to us anymore. | |
| Yeah. | |
| God, it's really funny how all of it. | |
| The... | |
| It's like this slow motion car crash of all these things happening over this period of time where it's like, you're. | |
| never going to feel it, but at some point you are just going to become a thin red mist that's just like flying through the air and that's the end of you because like we're screwed on so many different levels. | |
| I mean, it's like, man, this is just great. | |
| It's just really great that this is where we are because, you know, my burrito taxi was a little too expensive. | |
| So I had to vote the orange man back into power. | |
| That's just the way it is. | |
| Sorry. | |
| But I got to say, on my 2025 bingo card, I did not have Trump going communist and buying into companies. | |
| Yeah, buying into companies. | |
| Yeah. | |
| As a lot of people I've seen online have said, man, this is a weird form of socialism, almost like national socialism that we're currently engaging in. | |
| Oh my God. | |
| Oh my God. | |
| So many that, you've probably seen it too, but so many people will be like, the Nazis are left-wing because. | |
| Oh yeah, that's a common thing. | |
| Yeah. | |
| It's the same thing with the Confederates who are really Democrats. | |
| And then they'll be like, well, because, you know, because they call themselves national socialists. | |
| I'm like, ah, so you believe that North Korea is a democratic people's republic then? | |
| Right, exactly. | |
| Yeah, what would people call themselves? | |
| has to be true. | |
| They wouldn't lie. | |
| And then, well, then they'll dig out something where, you know, they'll show Hitler giving some talk back in, like, 1933 about how they're a socialist party. | |
| I'm like, yeah, back before he took over, they were a socialist power. | |
| Then he ran roughshot through them and completely changed the entire power structure of the party. | |
| And not to mention their mission statement. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Wasn't that like kind of part of when Candace Owens was like talking about Hitler and that early quote, she was like, the problem wasn't that he was a nationalist. | |
| It was that he wanted to go beyond a nationalist to become a globalist. | |
| Yeah. | |
| There's nothing wrong with being a nationalist. | |
| Well, that was her whole thing was that she was like, if I, if, if he had just stayed inside of, if he had just stayed inside of Germany, it all would have been smooth. | |
| But once he left Germany for other things, then, then it's when it got bad. | |
| So like, she was totally okay with him, like purging the Jews and everything. | |
| As long as you just keep that inside your own borders. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Which don't, don't expand your genocide outside your borders. | |
| Yeah. | |
| She didn't have a problem with Auschwitz. | |
| She had a problem with Dachau because that's in Poland. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Dachau. | |
| Sorry. | |
| I don't know why I said it like that. | |
| I'm, I'm, I'm batting a thousand today. | |
| I'll tell you what. | |
| I like your hair. | |
| Thanks. | |
| You're, you're a, you're a blonde bimbo right now. | |
| It's funny. | |
| I took, I took a picture. | |
| I took a profile picture of myself for. | |
| for for reasons and i looked at it and i'm like i look like that chad meme right now Because I got the, because my hair is shaved on the side, but longer on top, and I got the, and my beard's growing out. | |
| So. | |
| Yeah, it's totally the Chad meme. | |
| Yeah, look out, I'm leftistist Chad. | |
| Oh god. | |
| anything good happened to you guys this week? | |
| Anything nice before we get into horrors beyond human comprehension? | |
| Uh, so, um, one of my friends, uh, pointed out to me, uh, so I have a Discord chat, uh, L is in that Discord chat. | |
| Hi, okay. | |
| And El and some of our other friends mentioned that there is this spiritual successor to EverQuest that is being made that's going into early access right now that is called, like, Memories and Monsters. | |
| So it's, like, a different name of, like, Dungeons and Dragons. | |
| Right. | |
| They love doing that. | |
| Yeah. | |
| And so that is, it's, like, I don't know if it's, like, fully operational on Monday or not for, like, Labor Day, but I just know that this game is happening. | |
| just to check we're talking about everquest is in the first mmo rpg Yes. | |
| Okay. | |
| I'm going to tell you about that. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Because I think there was another game with a very similar name. | |
| So I didn't want to mix them up. | |
| Yeah. | |
| No. | |
| So this is correct. | |
| That's what it is. | |
| And basically it's like a lot. | |
| of the classes are the classes from classic Everquest. | |
| And so basically all my friends were already like picking classes and stuff like that. | |
| And I like said, hey, I'm interested in that. | |
| And they were like, oh, slam. | |
| Because there was like three of them playing. | |
| And now they're going to have a fourth. | |
| And I was like, hey, if you guys need a heal bot, I'll do the heal bot. | |
| And if. | |
| If you already have a heal bot, then I'll totally just play a wizard or a rogue and just start smacking people. | |
| So, yeah, so that looks like it's going to be fun. | |
| And in other, like just adulting news uh like all week long i'd been just telling myself yo mike uh you gotta you gotta get your uh vehicle inspected this week this is the last week before it the your inspection sticker expires and basically uh my local garage that's like right near my house the guy who does the inspections he's like the world's biggest jerk um so | |
| if you if you show up at like 4 30 he's like nope done for the day pound sand uh even though he's open until like seven like he's like He stops doing inspections at a certain point. | |
| So I basically ran to the garage and I got there at like four o'clock and was like, can I get an inspection sticker? | |
| And he was like, fine. | |
| It was just crazy. | |
| Yeah, I don't know. | |
| I guess they do them differently because in Illinois, there's like government-run facilities that you go to to get, are you talking like an emissions test, like that kind of thing? | |
| Well, yeah, this is like it's basically a road legal test the way they do it in Massachusetts. | |
| They basically they do the emissions test, they honk your horn, they check your wipers, they tap your brake. | |
| They plug in both your seatbelts on the passenger side and the driver side to make sure they're working. | |
| They just like do all these little things. | |
| They visually inspect your tires to make sure they're not like worn down. | |
| Oh, okay. | |
| They do all these like little things. | |
| It's like a, it's a yearly $35 hustle that the, that these garages get to do to you. | |
| in Massachusetts. | |
| So that's the bright side of Illinois. | |
| It's free for us at least, but they just do the emissions tests. | |
| They don't kick tires and all that. | |
| Oh, yeah. | |
| They used to, but they don't anymore. | |
| I know that like in New Hampshire, I don't think they have inspections in New Hampshire. | |
| You just, and also New Hampshire., you don't need insurance. | |
| So if you get into a car accident in New Hampshire, you might be really fucked. | |
| Wow. | |
| So it's great. | |
| But yeah. | |
| Hey, at least they're first out of the gate for voting. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Well, for the Republicans now. | |
| So nuts to all that. | |
| But yeah, so, yeah, I, I got, I, So those are my happy moments for the week. | |
| What about you, Chailey? | |
| good stuff happen for you um you know i i i'm like you i'm like i'm an adult and i'm gonna i'm gonna play a game um because i've just been playing a lot of pokemon lately um and i like playing pokemon and i like um having my pokemon stuffed animal to keep me company at night um | |
| I got it at like a store here in Tucson. | |
| No, more like Mexican kind of American themed. | |
| And it's just, I like it. | |
| It's very cute. | |
| And yeah, so I've been getting back into Pokemon more. | |
| i actually been watching the first season again even like the og uh which is so bad it's hilarious uh it's it's it's it's peak um i remember back then i uh because i was like my my mom was a kindergarten teacher and i was like working as an aide for her for a short time because it was uh catholic school and they don't and they don't care about things like being related to your the teacher and stuff but uh She put on like an old, | |
| she put on like an episode or two of Pokemon, you know, just like for a free period. | |
| And I'm looking at it. | |
| I'm like, okay, so basically it's just, it's, the cartoon is just, here's how you could play. | |
| the game. | |
| This guy is weak against this type and strong against this type. | |
| Yep. | |
| It's just rock, paper, scissors, but more extensive. | |
| I mean, I played Pokemon, but I just thought it was funny that the cartoon is basically a glorified instruction manual for the game. | |
| Oh, that's literally it. | |
| No, that's why it's so funny. | |
| It's like, this is all one big marketing thing to get me to buy everything. | |
| Yeah. | |
| But let me just play the game and enjoy myself. | |
| It's mainly nostalgia bait right now, just because I'm just like, All right, I was obsessed with Pokemon as a kid. | |
| Let's check this out again. | |
| and it's like god damn it's so fucking bad but it's so funny um it's just funny how bad it is it's just like uh i don't know but also listeners tell us which is your favorite pokemon um one day when we do like a like a like a like a chill episode about um like stuff in media or just in the public in general that gets labeled demonic for just for unnecessarily just by like | |
| paranoid christians um i would love to do that because pokemon is definitely definitely up there with like monster energy drink and shit like that oh yeah yeah i was i was right there with uh that um that. | |
| And it's very funny that you brought that up because right before we started recording, I was watching a video and it was Hawlucha versus Machamp, Pokemon Legends. | |
| And it was a wrestling match between the two of them. | |
| And then I read all the comments from the wrestling forum I was on. | |
| And it was like all people making wrestling jokes. | |
| It was excellent. | |
| It was great. | |
| But yeah, so literally I was like just basking in Pokemon right before Haley was just like, you know what? | |
| I love Pokemon. | |
| I was like, man, that is crazy that that is what we uh we we went with for her uh for her happy happy day happy events going on what about you eric what's going on in your life that's good well uh just yesterday um i was at the park and uh there was there weren't really any people around and they there was this big huge like climbing jungle gym thing and i've been i've been on a glp one for | |
| a while now, like almost a year, and I've lost a bunch of weight, so I was like, I was like, you know, that thing looks like fun, so I went and I actually, and I managed to climb up it and I didn't, like, want to die after two steps or anything, so I was feeling really good about myself, and like, I've been getting a bunch of exercise and stuff, so I'm like, so it's like, I think I'm the best shape I've been since I was like 20. | |
| Damn, you are the Chad meme today. | |
| He was like, yeah, so I went to this park and I i was all swollen puff and all the all the chicks were hitting on me it's like wow yeah i mobbed a bunch of losers yeah yeah yeah i shamed the guy for having a beer gut yeah it should, that's awesome. | |
| Yeah, that's cool. | |
| So everybody clap for Eric. | |
| Yeah, everyone clap for Eric. | |
| And now let's talk about mass shootings. | |
| Yeah. | |
| What I, the, the, The smoothest and happiest segue possible. | |
| Move with players. | |
| We're professionals. | |
| That's us. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Who wants to take it away? | |
| Feel free. | |
| Basically, some assholes shot up a church, killed a couple kids, and now everyone's using this event to try to score political points because the entire internet is nothing but scum. | |
| It's great. | |
| So yeah, the first things I saw. | |
| And we have the most online presidential administration of all time, so they count as scum online. | |
| Yep. | |
| Oh, yeah. | |
| And also, the perpetrator clearly was also incredibly online and kind of clumped. | |
| So we have to talk about it. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Yeah, it's not enough that we got a mass shooter. | |
| They got to be an internet troll mass shooter. | |
| Yeah, like this is the thing about this shooting that everyone who is using it for political points, you can just pick whatever bullshit you want from the shooter's online performance before the shooting. | |
| Because basically this prick took photos of all the guns and had a million slogans written on them. | |
| So if you wanted to portray them as a hardcore leftist, you would point to the clip on one of the guns that said, Kill Trump. | |
| And all kinds of- Yep. | |
| Oh, yeah. | |
| But, I mean, that's the... | |
| Mario, but yeah. | |
| Yeah. | |
| I'm sorry, I'm a Luigi fan. | |
| It's anti-Nintendo or whatever. | |
| Is Nintendo right? | |
| Right. | |
| So hopefully this doesn't get me on any watch list, but I do have a tattoo of Luigi on my back. | |
| I love that. | |
| That's how much of a Luigi fanboy I am. | |
| And my wife has Mario on hers. | |
| That's our couple tattoo. | |
| I have the news going on the side. | |
| So just like a few basic facts about the shooting. | |
| It was yesterday morning. | |
| It is a church, but it's also a school. | |
| So it was essentially the school just opened. | |
| like reopened this week which i don't know if people have been paying attention but like lots of schools have been opening up over the past few weeks and there's been like a lot of swatting hoaxes happening across the country school's back in session so one thing one thing to mention uh as someone who's gone to catholic school pretty much every catholic school has a church attached to it unless it's like unless it's an incredibleibly poor school, but I mean, because basically the church is the one funding the school. | |
| So it was about 8 o'clock, it was about 8.15 when they, there's no evidence that they entered the building. | |
| It seems for now that they might have just sprayed inside. | |
| It was like 120 bullets recovered at the scene. | |
| two children have died so far. | |
| There are 18 people injured, including two, it says three senior citizens. | |
| It doesn't say they're affiliated with the school. | |
| So is that normal for people to just use the split? | |
| the church as a place of worship? | |
| Oh, it's a, yeah, it's, and the church would be a totally regular church, and it would not at all be unusual for a couple elderly parishioners to be there even on a Wednesday morning. | |
| Yeah, so they're like over 80, so I'm assuming they're just like religious folks. | |
| Yeah, I mean, they could be volunteers with the church or the school, or they could just be very, because there are people who do go to church every single day. | |
| So it could, so it could be either one. | |
| And there are lots of like conspiracies about like why this place was chosen, how the perpetrator knew about the school. | |
| They went to that school previously and their mom worked there for a long time and actually just retired like a year ago. | |
| So very familiar with the school. | |
| Yeah. | |
| So yeah, there's some facts. | |
| How dare you bring evidence into this conversation? | |
| I'm sorry. | |
| And then to address the elephant in the room, I think it's been officially confirmed that the shooter was trans. | |
| Yeah, they're transgender. | |
| I don't know exactly what their pronouns are. | |
| So we're going with they here on the podcast, folks. | |
| And if we slip up and say he, please don't cancel us. | |
| We're trying not used to all this pronouns. | |
| Also, if we just constantly use they too much, we'll be cancelled for being too woke. | |
| So I think we have to do the smattering of pronouns here to try to balance out our woke to hateful ratio. | |
| Yes. | |
| Yeah, good. | |
| I did like Eric was like, oops, I misgendered them earlier because I'm just so used to every shooter being a man. | |
| That's true. | |
| It's like so fucking true. | |
| Off the top of my head, I can only think of that, those one female shooter, and she wasn't even a shooter because she was planning on going down to Columbine High School and shooting it up on like the 15th or 20th anniversary, something like that. | |
| But she had a change of heart in her car, like in the parking lot or something like that. | |
| I don't remember the exact circumstances, but that's the only potential female shooter that I can think of. | |
| There is one that the shooter yesterday referenced on their guns, which is just like absolutely covered in references. | |
| But they mentioned the Abundant Life Shooter, which was the other like. | |
| like one of the other recent religious school shootings. | |
| There's basically like 10 plus like there's like a dozen references to other mass murders on the gun because that's kind of like yeah there's even a holocaust references I recall. | |
| Yeah I guess okay so this okay we'll get into the the the fact that the perpetrator is transgender in a bit because this is definitely feeling like an incredible amount of hate but the guns we'll just get into it real quick um there's references to the uh like uh massacre in norway so brevick, I don't like saying their names, but I'm just going to use his example. | |
| But there's also like references to the 9-11 hijackers. | |
| Bowl Pilled, which is like kind of Bowl Patrol stuff. | |
| That wasn't Lanza. | |
| It was the... | |
| I'm blanking on some of their names. | |
| There's a couple references to Waco on here. | |
| the Sandy Hook shooters mentioned on here. | |
| There's like references to kind of like vintage shooters, like one that occurred in Canada. | |
| Like it was like 20 years ago or so. | |
| And it was like a specifically misogynistic murderer, like that mass killed women, I believe. | |
| There's like the Aurora shooters mentioned on here. | |
| But then there's like a ton of obviously racist stuff. | |
| There's like stuff about harming Hispanic people people on here There's We Was Kangs. | |
| Do you want to explain that, Mike? | |
| Yeah, Tosh Tank, you can break the news. | |
| I had a led meeting and there said you're smart. | |
| I had come to your spider suggestion for you, Thorsten. | |
| You said there was some concern about fruit having become so expensive. | |
| I heard that it had gone up by 15 percent. | |
| That was you who said, Thorsten. | |
| What do you want? | |
| Wait a minute. | |
| How much more fruit? | |
| I might have something wrong with that. | |
| No, but then Alice decided that the fruit would disappear. | |
| In Sweden. | |
| I'm scared of the fruit. | |
| Bit to AIS-Bedrift. | |
| Operational subscriptions. | |
| So you're the more for the money. | |
| AIS? | |
| Yeah, that's good. | |
| Where would I hear what's being said to the podcast? | |
| Da, are you maybe on time to change to an RBIO El Tamburste? | |
| Oral-B-IO is so quiet that you can listen to the favorite podcast while you're listening. | |
| Right now you're also $200 back when you buy Oral-B-IO 9. | |
| Let more on oralb.no. | |
| You're muted. | |
| Yeah, we can't hear you. | |
| Damn it. | |
| My microphone is now doing this weird thing where it just mutates itself randomly every so often. | |
| And I have to play this little game where if my microphone turns bright red, I have to, oh right, you've muted yourself. | |
| And I have to unmute it. | |
| I actually looked into that and it was just like an anti-black thing that was just making fun of their accent. | |
| I had a feeling. | |
| It's like a different version of didn't nothing. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Didn't do nothing or whatever. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Exactly. | |
| And yeah, there was like anti-Semitic stuff on here. | |
| There was like six million wasn't enough. | |
| I don't know what they had. | |
| They had like a canister with them and it said like Jew gas. | |
| Yeah, Jew gas. | |
| Oh, yeah. | |
| Probably, yeah. | |
| The canisters they used in the Holocaust. | |
| Yeah. | |
| But it had like burn Israel, nuke Israel, destroy Israel, and then like also nuke India. | |
| So there's a smorgasborg of any group you hate. | |
| He mentioned it here. | |
| So you can insert, I'm sorry, so you can insert them into any group you want to, basically. | |
| There was also a lot of heavily ironic stuff on here. | |
| Also, Skibbity was written on here, which, like, if we have listeners who are over the age of 12 may not know what that is, but it is just kind of like an ironic Zoomer thing. | |
| It was like a web series, but it's kind of just used as like a... | |
| I say it's still kind of big with Gen Alpha. | |
| So he was also, or they were also on like an incredibly like, like Nazi, like hard right, like accelerationist like form, like that has skibbity in the name. | |
| So, like, it is kind of used, even though it's just, like, a kind of random word. | |
| Like, some far-right circles do use it in that way. | |
| And real quick, can you remind me what accelerationism is? | |
| Because I've seen it mentioned a couple times, but I'm blanking on it. | |
| It's basically kind of like you, like, are trying to excel, like, the decline. | |
| You're not exactly... | |
| I mean, there's left-wing accelerationists and right-wing accelerationists. | |
| Yeah, you're trying to bring about the civil war that will lead to the revolution, that will lead to your side winning and reforming. | |
| running everything because and it you know some some of these guys essentially think or people in general just like to like not even just civil war like we're bringing about race war we're bringing about whatever their kind of thing is that they obsess about, you know, like this will be the thing that wakes everybody up to the Jews if we kill a bunch of Jews or something. | |
| So kind of like, yeah like because like basically i the idea is is that the mainstream is trying to keep things like contained and we're in this like slow decline and the accelerationists is like screw that let's just break it let's just break the thing and have the remake which is obviously going to end up with me coming out on top yeah because yeah it reminds reminds me that bernie bros in 2016 who are like fuck it we're going to vote for | |
| just so that the world can explode and we can rebuild it as a uh as a paradise in our own image yeah oh yeah there's like nazis that do the same thing they're like we'll vote for the democrat because we think society will get worse for right-wingers and they'll finally see the light essentially that we need to go more hard right yeah um and honestly too this is a pretty common ideology in silicon valley it's they call it more like effective accelerationism where they | |
| a lot of people that kind of adhere to this ideology think like we need to like yes technology will lead to the earth burning and lots of people will be without homes and jobs, but this is worth it. | |
| And if we just kind of push through this hard time, we will essentially have paradise after all of this and like it's worth it to burn the earth because like we'll be on top so who cares yeah that that's always the payoff of all of this is that we will win the revolution this is uh what the boogaloo boys are all about because that's what the boogaloo is it's uh electric boogaloo meaning part two which means a second civil war and | |
| And, you know, I'm not even necessarily, like, hard, like, calling this shooter yesterday an accelerationist because, like, these circles that they clearly occupied online, like, people have probably heard of Terragram where, like, I see a lot of, like, elements of that in here where it's, like, people that revere shooters, mass shooters, terrorists, and they essentially, like, turn them into these saints. | |
| And do, it's kind of, like, mass shooter fandom or mass terrorism fandom, neo-Nazi terror fandom. | |
| And, like, there's, you know, people in these movements that sometimes are, like, I also want to be, like, memorialized like this. | |
| There's other groups that, like, you'll see this kind of, like, heavy irony mixed with, like, Nazism and, like, praise of mass terrorism, like, the 764 cult and, like, the comms stuff. | |
| So, I'm sure there'll be more coming out about this person's online footprint and, like, maybe some of these circles that they occupied because, like, it's just a common theme that we keep seeing with a lot of these shooters. | |
| Like, they sort of reference one another, like, like I said, the guns filled with references of other mass shooters and, like, neo-Nazi terrorists and, like, that is a common theme. | |
| Like, their manifestos will often do this. | |
| so yeah um a couple other ironic things i just have to mention that were written on the gun was I saw people trying to figure out what this was like the 666 plus 79,419 it's boobs like on the calculator when you type it out it's boobs and then there was like sponsored by BlackRock written on there which I'm sure has led to some conspiracies And yeah, | |
| that was just like some of the things. | |
| Oh, and then I saw limbs of TikTok and some of the people that are absolutely like, all right, we need to genocide trans people now. | |
| Pointing that part of the gun said, I'm the Woker baby. | |
| Why so querious? | |
| Which is just like, come on, man. | |
| Yeah, that's just a reference to the Joker. | |
| It's not a, it's not a I'm trans and that's why I'm killing people. | |
| And also the guns had tons of anti-LGBTQ plus stuff on them. | |
| So it wasn't, it wasn't like they were, they weren't doing it for the, for the gays. | |
| They weren't committing this shooting for their, their team they were doing this shooting because they were a nihilist who was like into murderous ideolation. | |
| It was just like, I will become a hero like the other mass shooters. | |
| Yeah, that's the thing too, is that they were very clearly like severely depressed, which is another theme that's obviously common amongst them, just like a disregard for human life, which is why they are fine attacking children, like disregard for their own life. | |
| Like there's obviously so much more here and like so much of the conversation right now is just like they were trans and we need to ban trans people because honestly like that's kind of the main thing I've seen. | |
| Laura Loomer's been claiming that the shooter's Muslim, which is like not even remotely accurate, but they had Mashallah written on one part of the gun. | |
| So they're just like, oh, they were a Muslim, which is just like, that's also like, even though it is like a word, you know, in Arabic, like it's also kind of an online meme just to say that. | |
| But yeah, it's just like. | |
| Everybody right now is just like analyzing the gun and being like, here's the person, the group I hate. | |
| And here's why I'm here's why they were responsible and why I'm going to seeing a lot of people online talking about 764 as like this online like murder cult. | |
| Yeah, so like as far as I can tell, they weren't involved. | |
| Like so far, there may be evidence later. | |
| Are you familiar with 764? | |
| I've basically just seen people going out talking about how 764 and other groups are inspiring kids to do this. | |
| and it's like statastic terrorism and these kind of groups need to be like watched more about because they lead to this kind of stuff. | |
| This is the group that was kind of making inroads on Roblox, which I think you may have heard about, Eric. | |
| I've heard of 764, yeah, but I don't really know anything about them. | |
| Yeah, it's more like a network kind of of discords. | |
| It started as this 764, but there's multiple... | |
| you've also probably heard of like the calm um but it is like essentially a network of people who are grooming, like they go in spaces online like Roblox or ED forums or like, yeah, like in-cell forums, like Nazi forums where there are obviously a lot of depressed teenagers hanging out and children. | |
| And they groom them into essentially making content for these groups that is like self-harm content, but to like. | |
| Yeah, it's like grooming children to like hurt themselves and hurt others. | |
| There are like quite a lot of interesting stories about like, yeah, people who essentially like killed themselves on like screen for this cult or kids that the thing too is that like it's like it's people recruiting kids and then often or not often, but sometimes like the kids will then like become perpetrators themselves. | |
| So it is like this incredibly twisted online dark network and the stuff with Roblox is interesting because the CEO is actually catching hella smoke right now from like the gaming community because gamers have caught wind of like the 764 and the grooming stuff that has happened on Roblox. | |
| And like a lot of gamers have covered it like moist critical types and like, you know, just like YouTube guys because the CEO of Roblox was like, well, I don't want my company to be associated with that. | |
| So I'm just like not going to address it or comment on any of that. | |
| And it's like, well, it's a thing that's happening on your platform. | |
| Now everybody hates you guys. | |
| Yeah, burying your head in the sand is not going to help anybody. | |
| Especially when it's like just nihilistic, terror, death cult grooming children. | |
| Yeah, bro, you gotta. | |
| That's terrible. | |
| um So yeah, there may be updates on this, but so far that's kind of the info we know. | |
| Like a sign enough that I got to worry that some groomer is in my son's server. | |
| Now I got to worry about this shit too. | |
| No, literally, I don't know how anybody's parrot, and you're braver than the troops, Eric. | |
| What else has been happening this week? | |
| Anything? | |
| Oh, I know that there's like happenings at the CDC, but I literally don't know any of the details. | |
| Well, right now, there's a mass walkout at the CDC that's happening that's not really being reported by the media. | |
| And I get what these people are doing, but at the same time, this isn't the before times. | |
| This is the government times. | |
| And if you and your other highly educated people, decide to walk out, the media just isn't going to care. | |
| And RFK Jr. and Trump are just going to replace you with more nuts. | |
| So it's just this thing where it's like, man, there's, I wish that there was a better way to handle this, but to me, it's like stay in your job until you get fired, because otherwise you're just going to let crazy people continue to take over the asylum. | |
| I know. | |
| I mean, I get, you know, I get the having it, wanting to take a moral stand and, you know, living up to your principles and that, but yeah, it's like there, the problem is you walk out and they're going to replace you with some nut job who'll do who, you know, who thinks that Ivor Mekken cures hangnails. | |
| Yep. | |
| Yeah, actually, other RFK news that I did see this week, I saw that they were going to, in September, they're going to make an announcement officially what causes autism. | |
| Yeah, that was what RPA said. | |
| RPA said that by September, he will be able to tell everybody what causes autism. | |
| And I will be amazed if it is not vaccines. | |
| They're going to say vaccines. | |
| Yeah. | |
| But not MMR because he decided that one's okay, possibly. | |
| Yeah, they just put restrictions on the next wave of COVID vaccines. | |
| There's age restrictions on them now. | |
| Unless you have some underlying condition that puts you at a really high risk. | |
| Yeah. | |
| I looked it up and basically if you go to a doctor, you'll be able to get a vaccine. | |
| But that's the problem is that you have to make a doctor's appointment now. | |
| You just can't go to CVS and get the shot. | |
| Right. | |
| You have to go to Walgreens. | |
| Yeah. | |
| You can't just go to Walgreens. | |
| You have to go to your doctor and be like, yo, doctor, give me a fucking excuse for the COVID vaccine. | |
| And your doctor will be like, one excuse coming right up. | |
| And you're like, thanks. | |
| I needed that. | |
| Amazing. | |
| I mean, that's great. | |
| Yeah, I mean, I have asthma and that was the first thing I saw on the list. | |
| So, you know, I'm okay. | |
| but other people are going to have to struggle a bit. | |
| Oh, I'm, Obesity. | |
| Oh yeah, so Elver was not particularly for it Turi? | |
| Turi? | |
| I think it's not the same. | |
| No. | |
| How'd you? | |
| I think no help. | |
| No, how'd you? | |
| How'd you? | |
| Have you become the job's uprivileged expert? | |
| Nobody grins at him. | |
| The Elkjøp Bedrift is a phone and abonnement to all the companies. | |
| So, talk to us. | |
| Hils Elkjøp Bedrift. | |
| *music* | |
| Yeah, listeners, if you are worried that you will not be able to get it, just go to your doctor and be like, listen, I have pre-existing conditions. | |
| Give me the shot. | |
| Yep. | |
| I have a pre-existing condition and I'm alive and I want to keep it that way. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Yeah, RFK sucks. | |
| I don't think that that reveal in September is going to go well. | |
| No, it's going to be. | |
| Yeah, it's going to be. | |
| a clown show because he's going to say dumb shit and we're going to get stuck in this loop of the media trying to normalize it. | |
| And there's really going to be no way to normalize a guy just flat out lying about vaccines causing autism. | |
| And I mean, God, it's just such a stupid situation to be in. | |
| I mean. | |
| This is another one of those magical moments where you look at the situation and you're like, fuck you, Steve Bannon, because Bannon wanted RFK to run as a Democrat in the primaries to try to cause some turbulence for Biden. | |
| And then that wasn't really working because once you get past his name, you find out that he's a right-wing nut. | |
| And then they were like, well, we'll run you in the general election and you'll take votes away from Biden because your last name is Kennedy. | |
| And then they found out he was taking away more votes from Trump than he was from Biden. | |
| And then they were like, oh shit. | |
| So then Trump was like, drop out and endorse me and I'll give you something. | |
| And RFK was like, deal. | |
| And what blows my mind about all of this is that Donald Trump is the king of just reneging on a deal. | |
| He's the guy that stifts his workers. | |
| He's the guy that screws over anyone who does anything for him and yet somehow in this administration he is the most a deal's a deal mr lannister always pays his debts of people and he like got tulsi gabard in as the director of National Intelligence. | |
| He's got RFK running our health department. | |
| I have to assume that he thinks getting those two in gives him damn cred. | |
| I don't know. | |
| I have no idea what it does. | |
| And it's insane. | |
| I'm just trying to reach into the... | |
| It just makes no sense to me. | |
| I mean, he like literally. | |
| the moment they call the election for him, like I would have expected him to just turn the RFK and kick him in the junk and be like, thanks for the votes, dumb, dumb. | |
| And then RFK in his gravel voice, he'd be like, oh, my balls. | |
| Oh, it would have been great. | |
| That would have been much better for America if that had happened. | |
| But no, Trump's weird loyalty to RFK Jr. means that now – And when we get the omega strain of COVID this winter, then it's going to be like, oh, it's going to be great. | |
| It's going to be absolutely magical. | |
| I mean, we. | |
| We are so unprepared for anything bad happening to us, be it a terror attack, a pandemic. | |
| We just literally have to hope these four years are just smooth as butter and we somehow get off this ride without the cart flipping off the roller coaster and crashing into the dumpster full of explosives that's lined up behind us. | |
| I would imagine a lot of people, myself included, were feeling the same way in November of 2019. | |
| And then they're like, oh, by the way, something's coming out of Wuhan right now. | |
| Yeah, exactly. | |
| Good old COVID days definitely didn't lead to any problems. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Yeah. | |
| That was magical. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Broke right wingers' brains for the rest of our lives. | |
| Oh, yeah. | |
| I mean, that's the thing. | |
| I mean, I really don't think that people understand how absolutely normalized these conspiracy theories are now. | |
| that everyone everyone's just crazy and that's all we're ever going to be for forever now like reality doesn't matter anymore you You can just live in your bubble of delusional bullshit. | |
| And that's just the way it is. | |
| And it's totally okay because instead of correcting you, we will create media echo chambers to reward you for your beliefs. | |
| We're just going to have John Solomon come on TV and tell you how all the bad people are going to get arrested again. | |
| same way he did from 2016 to 2020. | |
| I mean, it's just... | |
| And it's just no one cares and no one who is in a position of mainstream media significance has the nerve to be like, hey guys, wait a minute, this is really bad and we need to stop doing it and we need to stop endorsing it or condoning it or both sides in it. | |
| It's just, we're just stuck in this spot where in September, RFK Jr. is going to say vaccines cause autism and reality is going to say no they don't and our media is going to say opinions differ. | |
| And it's going to be, yeah, great. | |
| Way to have some fucking spine assholes. | |
| And I just found a note that I left for myself earlier. | |
| So if we can circle back a bit, did you guys see the tweet that Don Jr. sent out about how every third mass shooter is trans and like half the people on his list were not even trans? | |
| Oh, yeah, I've been seeing those memes go around. | |
| You know, and Mike, when you were just like similarly, Like how you're saying, just like everybody kind of lives in this bubble of conspiracism and there's like no one there to challenge them. | |
| I'm not kidding. | |
| I saw word for word the exact same conspiracies occurring on both Twitter and Blue Sky just from a different fucking perspective. | |
| It was the line basically like, I know more about the freaking like shooter yesterday than in 13 minutes than I do about Thomas Matthew Crooks, the Trump shooter in 13 months. | |
| And like I saw it word for word on both sites, just different perspective because like obviously there's different conspiracies. | |
| from on both sides about the the shooter uh the trump shooter yeah uh which we're going to cover in the future It just was interesting that we, I kept seeing that just like the mirrored version of the conspiracy. | |
| Yeah. | |
| And as I pointed out, on the one year anniversary of the Trump shooting, CBS, I think it was CBS, posted this gigantic article detailing that guy's life and the double life he'd been leading and like his like detailed search history and stuff. | |
| So I've been anytime I see someone say, I don't know anything about this guy. | |
| I'm like, here you go. | |
| You're welcome. | |
| Now you know a ton about him. | |
| Now you know lots of information down to his last porn search. | |
| Yeah, he didn't have that app that Mike Johnson has where Warren's his kid. | |
| Yeah, the Mike Johnson and Mike Johnson's kids porn snitch app they have on each other. | |
| This conspiracy is so common after mass shootings or high-profile shootings. | |
| essentially like why do we know so much about this shooter but not not this shooter and it's like a shooter that had a large online footprint and left a manifesto versus a shooter that didn't. | |
| And it's like, well, there's a reason for that, man. | |
| Not everybody does the same fucking thing. | |
| But it's just like been such a common trope that like you just see it constantly. | |
| Yeah. | |
| It's like, how can we know more about the Unabomber than we know about the Zodiac Killer? | |
| It's like, okay, well, because the Unabomber dropped the manifesto and the Zodiac Killer hid his identity. | |
| That's, that's, you know, I often hear that we're going to cover it in the future, but I haven't started doing any research on it. | |
| That is a common conspiracy with the Las Vegas shooter, right, Mike? | |
| Is that like, there's nothing. | |
| nothing about this guy essentially yeah the vegas shooter yeah that's the big thing that we don't know why he did it. | |
| We don't understand what happened. | |
| People are hiding the truth from us. | |
| There hasn't been an investigation into the man. | |
| When we have dug into him and we do know that basically he was a losing player in casinos and he was like struggling financially from all his losses and. | |
| He was getting mad that he wasn't being treated like a high roller at these casinos anymore, that his comps and his player points and all this stuff wasn't giving him all the perks he was getting previously. | |
| So he's just spiraling. | |
| He's losing money. | |
| He's not being respected the way he thinks he should be. | |
| And he just snaps. | |
| He just snaps and smuggles a truckload of guns up to his room and then kills a ton of people because just fuck it. | |
| He's out of his mind at this point. | |
| He just wants to lash out at the world. | |
| And America being the glorious gun cesspool of the world. | |
| You can just do that. | |
| You can just obtain infinite firepower to do whatever you want. | |
| Especially in Vegas. | |
| Oh, yeah. | |
| Yeah. | |
| I mean, yeah, when I first got out to Vegas, one of the things that they love having was like the ads, like fire an AK-47. | |
| Like you can just go to the range and just like fire off like semi-automatic and fully automatic weapons. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Someone just posted, apropos of nothing, but someone just posted a photo of Kennedy right before the assassination. | |
| I literally just saw that. | |
| tweet and I was like and I was going to say oh hey I just found and then so oh no this is from Mike so never mind no and then well yeah it says Jerry Jones next time he next time he's out in Dallas. | |
| And I actually replied, I actually quote tweeted it and I just said like Dealey Plaza was the end of the route. | |
| So Jerry would be lucky to make it that far if he was riding around in an open top car right now. | |
| Oh God. | |
| Yeah. | |
| So i actually saw the funniest i wanted to send it to you but it was just like it only has 50 likes but it felt like enough to be like I feel like that's a sizable enough amount of people to be like, that's a little concerning. | |
| But I saw somebody saying about the Kennedy assassination that Jackie did it. | |
| Oh yeah. | |
| And that made me laugh. | |
| so hard. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Oh, I've, I've, that is like an offshoot of the Secret Service did it, which makes me laugh. | |
| I love it. | |
| I do love the idea of Jackie blowing him away. | |
| And what was her reason for it? | |
| Because he was, because he was slinging that dick everywhere. | |
| Yes. | |
| Absolutely. | |
| And she's like, I'm doing this in front of everybody. | |
| Yes. | |
| I'm just going to blow your head off in front of the fucking world. | |
| You piece of shit. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Yeah. | |
| But that. | |
| I do like how most of the guys who say that the Secret Service shot him, like a lot of them are like, well, it was an accident in their defense. | |
| Yes. | |
| No, that, that. | |
| that that fucking conspiracy gets funnier the more I think about it that Jackie does. | |
| She's like, as soon as we're on this parade route, I'm blowing his fucking brain out. | |
| Yeah, pulling a Saturday night special out of my purse and kaboom. | |
| I don't know what happened to it, but because I've looked for it for a while and I haven't found it. | |
| And I know I've posted it on my timeline, but I have no idea how to find it. | |
| But there's this like bizarre photo. | |
| It's this art. | |
| It's this really crazy art. | |
| And it's Jackie opening up her purse. | |
| And there's all these photos of Marilyn Monroe with JFK. | |
| And Jackie's like pulling a gun out of her purse as she's like, as the photos are coming out. | |
| And Kennedy's like back has turned to her and he's waving to the crowd. | |
| And the Dirk Nowitzki era Dallas Mavericks are in the crowd looking at Kennedy. | |
| They're all wearing their Mavericks jerseys. | |
| It's very bizarre. | |
| And the Secret Service are running running towards them, but they're obviously never going to make it in time. | |
| And Jackie's about to pop him. | |
| It's just the funniest thing. | |
| And I found it a bunch of times. | |
| I posted it and then one day when I started looking for it, I just couldn't find it anymore. | |
| So I don't know where the original source of that photo was or that painting was, but it's gone now. | |
| And but that was my favorite like macabre bit of JFK assassination art. | |
| Just Jackie getting ready to blow away her husband while Dirk Nowitsky looks on helplessly, unable to save the president from this terrible fate. | |
| And Dirk is like, I don't know, 40 years in the future, basically. | |
| So I just found this tweet by Marjorie Taylor Greene talking about how to stop school shootings. | |
| And you'll be amazed to discover that it involves not funding Ukraine. | |
| But what I think is hilarious about it is apparently I think she must have gotten Carrie Lake as her makeup artist or something. | |
| Because she's got that same soft focus, vaguely blurry thing going that Carrie Lake always did whenever she was shooting something from her living room. | |
| room it's fascinating it's just like it's like they have the blur filter just like permanently it's very interesting Interesting. | |
| And it's like, come on. | |
| It's like, come on. | |
| We know you look like the surface of the moon from close up. | |
| You don't have to hide it. | |
| You know, talking about things that the media doesn't cover is that there has been some just like, obviously I found about it through the media in the sense that like, oh, this person is now part of like the Department of Homeland Security. | |
| This person is now in the Trump administration. | |
| And it's just names that I keep noticing from the Cyber Ninjas audit and the Kerry Lake Kraken lawsuits. | |
| and there's no mention of that anywhere. | |
| And there is, like, a little bit of, like, Cyber Ninja drama because some of the people that just got seats, like, were some of the people that, like, Cyber Ninja's people essentially blamed for the audit not going the way they wanted. | |
| So there's a lot of, like, hyper, like, tiny, like, section of right-wingers that are currently mad at these picks. | |
| But I do think it's a bit of a bummer that the Cyber Ninjas and the the people that helped with all that are getting seats in this administration when like Yeah. | |
| Remember the cyber ninjas, everybody? | |
| Remember when we looked for bamboo ballots here? | |
| Yeah, they showed, bro. | |
| I do. | |
| I do. | |
| The cyber ninjas went bankrupt and the guy who actually like founded it is like incredibly got sued up the ass. | |
| But like everybody that was involved in it and like funded it and like was part of the whole thing and involved in these like millions of lawsuits that happened that were like the localized kraken lawsuits are still around unfortunately and getting seats. | |
| in higher office which is just like damn it i mean that's that's how it is the uh you know the the the guy the guys who started the whole show they get to you know stay on top of the heat but uh but the ones who are actually doing the work, they're, you know, they get sued. | |
| Not that they don't deserve it, but it'd be nice to see justice come to everyone involved in that debacle. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Yeah. | |
| So anyway, everything's going good. | |
| Yeah, everything's going great. | |
| Peaceful Keen. | |
| I don't know why we even do this podcast any more. | |
| We have nothing to talk about. | |
| It's just smooth sailing every week. | |
| Just another great thing. | |
| But yeah. | |
| So we have what we have to look forward to is the National Guard going into Chicago. | |
| Yay. | |
| You ready? | |
| Ready to be conquered, Eric? | |
| Derek. | |
| Chicago don't play. | |
| It's not going to go well in the way that it's not going well for... | |
| They couldn't indict the sandwich guy. | |
| Oh, yeah. | |
| Yeah. | |
| We love him. | |
| The judge basically laughed the case out of court from what I heard. | |
| What I like. | |
| It was the grand jury. | |
| It was the grand jury. | |
| They returned a no-pill, which led me and literally everyone on earth to make the joke that you can indict a ham sandwich, but you can't indict a guy for throwing a ham sandwich. | |
| So it was turkey. | |
| I know, but that's not the joke. | |
| I'm just kidding. | |
| I'm just kidding. | |
| How dare you? | |
| I don't know if it was turkey. | |
| I've been thinking about the National Guard coming to Chicago thing. | |
| And it's like, I'm thinking it's going to be like what I've been reading about in D.C. Like, they're not going to be going to like Englewood or the Wild 100s or any really bad areas. | |
| They're going to be going to, like, Humboldt Park, which is a majority-minority area, but not known for crime or anything. | |
| They're just going to go to these high-profile places where they can pose for pictures and have... | |
| Yeah, like terrorize the community. | |
| Right. | |
| Because they've already, the ice has already gone and, uh, and. | |
| and harass some people at a museum in Humboldt Park, which is funny because Humboldt Park is a Puerto Rican neighborhood. | |
| So everybody there is American citizens by birth. | |
| Most of it was the Puerto Rican Museum they were targeting, wasn't it? | |
| Yeah, because it's the Puerto Rican Heritage Museum. | |
| So I'm arguing with all these people online that are like, well, they were doing this. | |
| I'm like, that's not what they said they were doing. | |
| They told the people at the museum they're doing something completely different. | |
| different and they're refused to identify themselves and they're and you know they're they're trying to be like no this is this is this is the the hispanics trying to make the situation sound bad i'm like no it's them accurately reporting what happened and ice trying badly to cover their tracks yep yep yep yep yep yep i honestly you know it's like i think chicago's going to go worse for the National Guard and any feds that get sent there. | |
| Well, for one, Republicans hate Chicago way more than they hate Washington, D.C. Also, Chicago just goes so hard. | |
| Like, your guys' protest scene is pretty like good because so many of like big events are held there yeah we had we have there in uh 1969, there was a protest of the DNC that was so raucous that the DNC wasn't held in Chicago for 30 years afterwards. | |
| Yeah, and just in general, it's just like, it's, it's, it's just a huge, like, people in Chicago love Chicago. | |
| All the Chicago hate comes from outside. | |
| So yeah, they're not going to want fucking National Guard and federal agents like sprawling. | |
| all over their city and making it worse. | |
| Like I've noticed like even like uh even like Republican Chicago blue check accounts like that Chicago Ray guy, even he is proud to be a Chicagoan even as he talks about how much he hates the government and everything he still loves Chicago as a city do you love Chicago oh oh yeah I bleed cubby blue well we finally answered cubs or socks so that's good I'm from the north side and | |
| you know my dad and my wife are both Cubs fans. | |
| So I don't watch baseball at all, but I think I've mentioned this before on the podcast. | |
| You are not allowed to not have an opinion on the Cubs Sox thing. | |
| You are like, like, it's on your test. | |
| You can't graduate eighth grade until you tell them Cubs or Sox. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Has the Pope brought more games to the, he likes. | |
| He's a SOX fan. | |
| He's a SOX fan. | |
| Has he brought a fandom to the games or do people still not care? | |
| I mean, I wouldn't doubt it. | |
| I did. | |
| The only thing I've seen on the issue is a picture. | |
| Some, somebody visiting the Vatican from Chicago brought a SOX hat and the Pope put it on and posed for pictures wearing it. | |
| That's the most I've seen, but I mean, Mike could probably tell you more about the White Sox than I could. | |
| Yeah. | |
| The White Sox are very bad. | |
| That's basically all you need to know. | |
| They are just terrible. | |
| And they've been that way for a very long time. | |
| They like flooped out and won their One World Series a while ago. | |
| And then after that, it was direct crashing straight into the Earth's core, which makes no sense because they're in Chicago, which is a big market. | |
| And you would think that a big market team would, you know, pay for players and try to win. | |
| But no. | |
| I would like to remind you of an infamous 108 year streak in Chicago. | |
| Oh, yeah. | |
| Of the Cubs not winning a single World Series. | |
| So it's not like, it's not like. | |
| Chicagoans don't have experience with losing teams. | |
| Oh, no. | |
| Both the White Sox and the Cubs were legendary for their long streaks of at a World Series title. | |
| I mean, they both just sucked for forever, but they just narrowly beat out the Red Sox for that. | |
| Yeah. | |
| But the thing is, is that the Cubs would like percolate and like make the playoffs and have runs, whereas the White Sox were just irrelevant. | |
| Then they snuck in a World Series title and then they went right back to irrelevancy. | |
| And right now, the White Sox are the second worst team in baseball. | |
| They with a with a majestic record of 48 wins and 85 losses. | |
| Who's the worst? | |
| The worst team is the Colorado Rockies who have an incredible record of 38 wins and 96 losses. | |
| The Rockies are I think the Diamondbacks lost a couple games to them. | |
| Oh yeah. | |
| Well, the Diamondbacks are in the same division as the Rockies, so they do play a lot. | |
| Your Arizona Snakemen are off the pace from their last two seasons. | |
| But I mean, that's the thing, is that the Arizona Snakemen were a small market team. | |
| They're supposed to be kind of hit or miss. | |
| They're not supposed to be perennially bad like the White Sox. | |
| I mean, so. | |
| We're going to the World Series. | |
| No, you're not. | |
| That is absolutely not happening. | |
| That was me doing an aggressive no-and that I learned so well from Elle when it comes to improv. | |
| But the problem for you is that you're in the same division as the Dodgers and the Padres, who the Dodgers just have infinite money and throw it at everybody. | |
| And the Padres are just like, we don't care that San Diego is a small market. | |
| We're throwing our money at anyone also, too. | |
| So you're just in a division with two teams that love to spend. | |
| So it's tough. | |
| It's tough to compete when you're actually fighting the big boys. | |
| And the craziest thing in this whole thing, and I know our audience has just been hog wild for baseball talk, but the funniest thing in this season right now is that the Milwaukee Brewers, the never won nothing, make the playoffs and get bounced really quickly, Milwaukee Brewers are right now the best team in baseball by a lot. | |
| is insane that this just Joe Blow organization is now just kicking ass and taking names and I'm rooting for them. | |
| It would be hilarious if the Brewers won the World Series. | |
| So go beer men. | |
| Go Dumbbacks. | |
| You're going nowhere. | |
| Go to the golf course. | |
| Go on vacation. | |
| All I know about the brewers is that they got that name because Milwaukee has so many micro breweries and macro breweries for that matter. | |
| Oh, yeah. | |
| They just have beer. | |
| There's just the Milwaukee beer makers. | |
| I love it. | |
| I mean, like it, it is, uh, I think Miller's there. | |
| It's like when the Boston Celtics were created, the people that made the team said, we're going to call the team the Celtics and put them in green and have all the Irish in Boston cheer them on. | |
| And it couldn't properly pronounce Celtic. | |
| That's the part that kills me. | |
| Yes. | |
| Yes. | |
| I love it. | |
| I love it. | |
| I had a friend who would do that. | |
| Like, he'd get angry and say, Celts. | |
| And I'd be like, dude, it's over. | |
| It's long over. | |
| We lost that battle, I don't know, like in the 1950s. | |
| So it's over, buddy. | |
| It's over. | |
| I just want to say real quick, because it was the talk. | |
| We're talking. | |
| This will lead back to sports. | |
| Oh, thank God. | |
| Yes, sports podcast, Adventures in Hell World. | |
| it's okay everybody's already turned this off No one can listen to us for an hour. | |
| Oh my God. | |
| Oh my God. | |
| Imagine such pain. | |
| Imagine doing that to yourself. | |
| Listeners, if you're still listening, you have to leave a five-star review. | |
| Anyways, but there was a big dust storm this week in Arizona in Maricopa County in the Phoenix area, which is called a haboob. | |
| I don't know if you guys have ever heard of this one, but every time a haboob happens here. | |
| the media goes fucking crazy because they get to say haboob cnn was all like uh this giant dust storm a haboob by the way so they get really excited to do that. | |
| And then the, okay, and then the, oh, it's the Cardinals. | |
| Fuck, I thought it was the Diamondbacks. | |
| Just unveiled new shirts for their, you know, their new jersey top, the top, the shirt that they wear when they play the sport. | |
| Jersey, yes. | |
| And it looks like dirt is a, it's hard to see in the camera, but it's literally a white shirt with dirt specks all over it. | |
| I said, well, we're doing no better than everyone listening to this show then because they can't see it either. | |
| Exactly. | |
| Listeners, I'm explaining it to you. | |
| It's a white shirt. | |
| It says Arizona on it. | |
| It has the flag on the side and it looks like a, you just. | |
| we're in a haboob they're leaning into it everybody's so excited about the haboob everybody loves haboobs everybody loves big haboobs right that's what we're all about here at hell world is big natty haboobs that's what it's all about this is uh okay i see it now yeah it looks like yes the the jersey looks like it has been hit by a windstorm Yeah, I don't know what they were going with this for this. | |
| It kind of looks like I know it's washer shirt. | |
| I know it's like it's like desert camo or something. | |
| It's like what are they doing? | |
| What are you doing? | |
| Where are we going with this? | |
| What the hell are we up to yet? | |
| You just, God. | |
| Are you having a laugh? | |
| Yeah, you take the piss, mate. | |
| And now we're the British Sports podcast. | |
| Everything's going great. | |
| So, yeah. | |
| Yeah, now it's association football, not American football. | |
| Yeah, we can talk about me and you losing to that Division 7 team and how they're all very sad about it. | |
| And if you don't know what I'm talking about, congratulations. | |
| You're literally everybody. | |
| So, yeah. | |
| But, um, Yeah, just bad things happen this week and bad things will continue to happen because that's what happens when you need to have Donald Trump be your president because it hasn't even been a year yet. | |
| No, but it hasn't even been a year yet. | |
| I used to say on Twitter during his first time, can you imagine how bad things would be if he didn't have people who were willing to keep him in check? | |
| And now we know. | |
| Right. | |
| Yeah, now we've done it now we don't have people that are willing to keep him in check now he's got nothing but an endless stream of yes men who go on national television for three hours and sing his praises in the most shamelessly humiliating way possible oh god kim jong un is like buddy buddy dial it back a little what are we doing here like that one that one secretary who is like talking about how they were moved to tears seeing his face on the department of transportation building | |
| yep like what tears of american pride It's as Mike Reigns always says, there are decades where nothing happens and there are weeks where decades happen. | |
| Yes, that was me. | |
| That was attributed to Mike Reigns. | |
| That's a famous quote by me and not Vladimir Lenin. | |
| But yes. | |
| In parentheses, possibly apocryphal. | |
| Possibly, possibly apocryphal. | |
| Yes, indeed. | |
| If you're a listener that's actually still listening, tell us which one you would rather hear first, a deep dive into Thomas Matthew Crooks or a deep dive into the Vegas shooting. | |
| The Vegas shooting, we also get to do a little blip about Dan Bilzerian, which will be funny. | |
| So way to put your thumb on the scales. | |
| I'm not. | |
| I'm actually fine with you. | |
| I would. | |
| I don't care either way. | |
| I just. | |
| That'll be my part is the Dan Bilzerian stuff. | |
| If you don't vote for Vegas, I will find you. | |
| No, no, no. | |
| It's either or. | |
| I'm literally. | |
| We will cover JSU, but I don't know anything about him enough to actually contribute much to that episode so yeah but yeah but the thing is is like dan belzerian i think is like uh i think i've seen him yeah he plays poker he's i've seen him in the poker tables so it's like really crazy that he's this guy who just goes into big games and gets crushed because he sucks And yeah, | |
| he's like, oh, I'm a great poker player. | |
| It's like, no, you're really not. | |
| Yep. | |
| I don't want to spoil what he did during the shooting for our listeners, but it is hilarious and it is very Dan Bilzerian and we'll get into the whole life of him at some point oh yeah but yeah now she's like if you don't vote for Vegas I won't be able to tell you this great story it's just like they're so now you know it's like he has like this revived career now where he's just doing the anti-Semitic yeah like mongering propaganda train and it's just like okay it's really crazy because I just know so | |
| many poker players who have become right-wing weirdos over the past few years. | |
| And I just, I'm just sitting there wondering, like, what is it about the right-wing siren song that is so irresistible to these people? | |
| where they're just like, I could keep playing poker and being a normal person or I could start like, I don't know, either be a sort of Nazi or a full-blown Nazi. | |
| And there's like, a Nazi. | |
| Yeah. | |
| It seems like being right-wing. | |
| It seems like it's a lot easier to drift for that, for those guys. | |
| Because like, absolutely. | |
| Because like, like, it's another form of gambling. | |
| Yeah, because like, like, Democrats have a lot of causes to, you know, uh, a day. | |
| I can't fucking talk today. | |
| They causes come and go with Democrats, but Republicans stay kind of pretty steady on the, you know, we hate brown people thing we love guns we hate brown people we hate gay people right yep that's pretty much it and oh my god i just saw i i was just looking through twitter and i found this picture chuck schumer's doing like a town hall at a hospital or something and oh my god he looks a million years old oh yeah oh yeah yeah yeah i i mean chuck ain't long for this world they're they're all pretty old but | |
| i mean at the very least uh has he said if he's running for re-election or not yet I have not heard anything, but I don't know when he's due either. | |
| I mean, that's the thing with senators is you get to have a nice 10,000. | |
| You just get to be senator forever. | |
| Yeah. | |
| So long. | |
| I don't like Dick Durbin. | |
| Run for senator. | |
| Dick Durbin announced he's not running for re-election, which, like, I always like Dick Durbin, but I'm glad he's leaving because we need somebody who doesn't remember the Crimean War in the Senate. | |
| Well, anyone, everyone, we'll let's talk about, I don't know, sports and plans for future podcasts and other weird spitballing that we're doing. | |
| I'm just going to call it. | |
| We're done. | |

| ever many people are saying it big strong men with tears in their eyes are telling me about it westmore came up to me and told me it was the best podcast he's ever heard he really did he really did and here's a clip from fox news where me and westmore are talking and absolutely that's what he's saying to me you can totally see that so anyhow uh five you give us a five-star review if you're still listening you're obviously insane so you have to give us a five-star review uh and and also if you're you're doing this patreon.com slash poker politics hook us up give me money give me money you | |
