It appears that Carmelo Anthony, the individual who murdered a white guy in Frisco, Texas, has been released.
You can go to the screen there.
Just a strapping, good-looking black guy with nothing to fear except for the fact that he stabbed a kid in the heart with a knife, which he brought to attract meat, which had banned knives, by the way.
He aggravated the situation, told the young man, why don't you try me and see what happens?
And like we all learn in self-defense class, when someone moves your backpack, the next step that you should take is stabbing them in the heart and making them bleed out in their brother's arms.
I did learn that actually at the local gun club.
It was the John Brown gun club from Antifa in Oregon, actually taught me that.
So I don't know if that's legal.
But unfortunately, like all good Americans, they raised money, right?
Over $400,000 for their family.
And as any parents of someone who they believe their son was victimized and wrongfully, you know, charged with murder, they did exactly what you would expect.
And they went ahead and they bought a new house, a Cadillac Escalade with the spinners on it.
You know what I'm saying?
Shit, you know what I mean?
Like, you got to get that.
And they also bought their son something that you would expect, not his freedom, but they bought him some new Jordans, some new kicks.
So, you know, like a typical American family, I mean, you know, all Americans, their goal for their families is to make sure their kids rot in jail while they have that spinners and shit.
Anyway, my name is Elijah Schaefer.
It is approximately 8:07 or 8:08 p.m. Eastern Time in the United States.
We have a great show for you today.
Tim Pools thinks that Carmelo Anthony is innocent.
I don't know if I agree with that.
Sam Hyde told Tim to capitalize his name if he ever tries to disrespect him again.
There's a lot of drama going on, but in the end, white people are getting killed.
All right, on my left, the uh host and the uh founder of Snowflake underscore news, Michael Hennessy here with his uh anti-football player deterrent.
You got one of these?
I heard that you were there football players walking around all the streets these days in the cities, and you ought to protect yourself because you never want a football player that's gonna refuse to move seats.
See, and you thought I was throwing under the bus, but didn't realize it was throwing you under the escalate because the truth is, it's like I'm getting crunched up by the wheels.
Yeah, you didn't even know what was going on.
No one knew it, but I actually sat there for a second.
And what I think is crazy about this is he's actually going to need a lot of money for his defense fund.
Like, it's not like he won.
Like, I could understand if he got his charges dismissed, they raised 500K.
The respectful thing to do would be to give the money back to the donors.
But, you know, they're the parents of football players.
Mendoza was telling me he actually agreed with this.
He was saying that, you know, Tim Pool's opinion about this being, you know, self-defense was not only the best opinion he's heard so far from Mendoza Report, but you just released recently that there's probably no better reaction from parents than to do this kind of stuff.
You know, they've been not like a Carmelo Anthony.
You know what I mean?
They have not been.
They've been like a Carmelo Anthony's GoFundMe.
But here's the funniest trick about all this.
Here's how the blacks played us.
This is actually really good shit.
So you know how Give Send Go was always canceling during the BLM riots like anybody who was like wrongfully charged.
Let's say like, you know, I was in self-defense.
It was very clear, like the McCloskeys or Kyle Rittenhouse.
And then they try to raise money on Give Send Go.
Well, Give Sengo created this new policy to stop particularly white people, Republicans, from being able to raise money for their defense funds when they're being wrongfully targeted by weaponized judges.
So they created this policy, which started, you know, now that they're not in power, could be used against them.
So then what started during this time?
Give, send, go.
I'm sure you've heard of that, which is a Christian version or a right-wing version of the GoFundMe.
Yeah, GoFundMe.
No, the new ones, Give SendGo.
But GoFundMe is the left's version.
And so what happened was they started out with like, hey, we're going to help Christians and right-wingers raise money.
We've used it on the show.
They call you to pray with you and everything like that.
It's very, very Christian, and they don't really take any fees.
So Carmelo Anthony's family, knowing that you can't raise money on GoFundMe, the left-wing's version, started the campaign on Give, Send, Go, the Christian right-wing version of fundraising, and because they can't get canceled.
And now the problem is, is that even the platforms, like we didn't start this to raise money for like black agitators, but they have to stand on their principles.
And it's like ironic because not only did they use our platform that we used to kind of help Rittenhouse, but they actually successfully stopped themselves from getting canceled.
So they raised, and they raised more money than Austin Metcalf, from my understanding, than the victim's family.
And the comments section is even more disgusting when you actually go ahead and read the comments where people, because when you gift, you can actually put a comment.
Like, that's some crazy ass shit that they threw back in our faces.
And I just want to bring up the comparison between Kyle Rittenhouse.
A lot of people are saying that Carmelo Anthony is the left's, you know, or the black community is Kyle Rittenhouse, right?
I want to remind you that it's still believed in the black community that Kyle Rittenhouse went out and opened fire in a mass shooting against a bunch of black people.
Yeah, his seat broke while he was on his Zoom meeting to get out of jail.
He fell down in the middle of his trial.
And I couldn't stop laughing.
However, I do want to say this.
Rainhouse shot two riders to save his life.
He was put on $2 million in bond, not reduced.
86 days in pre-trial detention.
Carl Mello Anthony brought a knife to a track meet, got insulted, killed someone.
Bond is reduced to 200K.
12 days in pre-trial jail buys new house.
We're going to talk about the difference here.
But as we talk about that, I want to remind you guys something important.
You know, obviously, you know, that it's kind of a weird time in life.
And Mike Lindell has been sponsoring this show.
He's been around for quite a while.
And we've been using my pillows.
They've been absolutely amazing.
And one of the best parts is we kind of talked to them, and so many of you guys have been buying them my pillows, getting better sleep, that they wanted to continue to support this show.
And I wanted to thank you guys for your support of my pillow.
As you know, we're demonetized everywhere.
We're not making money from the big media companies and the big social media platforms, which is why we can talk about things like this.
And because we partner with companies like this and you guys support them, we bring you the right products.
And I want to let you know they have a big allotment right now of their bed sheets, which are pretty damn comfortable.
I'd say even the best for the price.
The only time I ever actually had better sheets was like in a Ritz Carlton, which someone paid for, but that's about it.
But in terms of anybody's house, this is actually up there with comparison.
I'm sure those are probably thousands of dollars or at least 800 bucks.
These are not that.
These are like $50.
Now, listen to this.
Right now, the box stores didn't come through.
They're going to pass savings on to you.
So now there's no middleman.
You're going to get the wholesale prices because they keep ordering shit from him and then they keep canceling the orders to make sure that he has a surplus of supply.
It's very weird.
You can get the Giza Dream Queen size right now, bed sheets, and for only $139.98, wholesale price is only $69.99.
Plus, the king size is only $79.99.
And you can get the Perkel queen size, normally $89.98 at only $29.98.
So this is very, very cheap stuff, but a very high-quality material.
Go to mypillow.com, use promo code Elijah, E-L-I-J-A-H, or go to 1-800-210-8491.
By the way, there are free shipping options as well when you spend the right amount.
This allotment won't last long.
When they're gone, they're gone.

Meaning, like most of us, when we're inconvenienced or feel like that someone's insulting us, black people are saying we're mad because we haven't been able to stab white people in the heart.
That's what she's saying.
Like he would have silently moved and that she's glad that blacks have made so much progress that we can start stabbing whites in the heart.
And that's what the comments were all saying.
Like, I'm glad whites are finally learning that, like, do you disrespect, you die.
And you kind of realize maybe what we saw in Zimbabwe, maybe what we're seeing in Johannesburg today, the South Africanization, as Will Tanner says, maybe that's a real problem going on here where, you know, blacks had their own water fountain 70 years ago.
But then everyone's like, no, she was a Republican.
And I got to remind people, people, that tribalism, if you think tribalism is about Democrats, this is actually the joke we make every day of like, wow, why do they keep stabbing us in inner cities?
Because of Democrat policies.
People really think because this fat football player female was a Republican that her football team ties are not above her political party.
And then you also had a lot of people who are fleeing the policies in California that hated California's policies, but didn't just continue to vote the same.
I want to remind you, let's do some announcements at the end of the show.
We might notice a little bit of rebranding going on on the page, some things happening.
Typically, we say that for the end of the show.
So if you guys are into that boring stuff to find out what we're doing and kind of the crazy adventure, stick around because we'll talk about it towards the end where we're on that.
Anyway, let's switch to topics here.
I want to go into this anyways.
So let's talk a little bit about what happened over the weekend with the Douglas Murray-Dave Smith debate.
I thought this was a very interesting topic.
It sort of broke the internet.
And we'll talk about a new sports team, right?
This is a crazy sports team.
What was going on?
So Douglas Murray and Dave Smith, who are both individuals, or they're Passover observing individuals, right?
All right, so there was a debate between the two of them, and I kind of want to watch a couple clips of this because Douglas Murray, I want to look at his wins, right?
Because apparently everyone was saying he won.
And I feel like what would happen in this debate between Douglas and Dave on Joe is that we've gotten to a point to where Murray's side of the argument, you know, this pro-war neocon establishment side is so set on making sure Americans die in the Middle East and that we serve foreign interests that have no value to our country that you could literally, it's like the left running Kamala, like the establishment.
Like you could literally have Joe Biden in a basement.
He'll still get most of the votes because it's not really like you're fighting a person.
You're just fighting like a system and an idea.
And Douglas represents a system and an idea.
So like the system will say he won, even if he said nothing of value.
And it was a really weird statement he made that everyone was sharing.
And here's what he had to say.
This is like sort of like his winning moment to where he officially beat Dave and that we should continue to send bombs to Israel because this, check this out.
It's not a non-argument if you're insisting that you're an expert of some kind, or not claiming you're an expert, but still talking about it, about the provisions going into Gaza or not, if you've never seen any of this going on.
So you're not amazing.
You can't speak about things that you've read about.
You can talk about what you want, as you're proving.
But that is a different matter from spending an awfully long amount of time talking about an issue in a region you haven't even had the courtesy to visit whilst developing all of these views about it.
I mean, now I slightly get an idea of where you're coming from.
You've read about this blockade, and so you imagine that that's what it is.
I imagine you've read all the people who say that Gaza was a concentration camp.
Okay, so we'll be going to dissect some of these things.
I know there's a lot to be said here about this.
I want to get your take on that.
I feel like a lot of what Douglas was doing this debate from what I saw was sort of grandstanding and making it seem like he was, not that he was ever right, but that he was like more of an authoritative source than Dave.
And it was all like, well, you've never been there.
So how could you know anything?
But the weirdest part about this is it's like, you know, our entire intelligence service, like half of our CIA and intelligence services have never been to the countries like these agents that they're spying on, that they're taking information from.
During like the Cold War, it's not like everyone was a spy and they were committing espionage behind the USSR, you know, iron curtain or iron wall.
People could study and learn and gather sources and take other first-hand accounts and come together, deduce, make policies.
Like you really do not have to be places to know about them.
And in some ways, going to places could be worse.
Would you say you would know more about North Korean politics by going to North Korea?
Probably not, because the experience you're going to get there is going to be propaganda.
That's actually going to even dilute further your ability to understand the country.
You're probably going to get a greater distortion of North Korean politics by visiting it than you would not visiting it and trying to understand it from the outside looking in.
But I'm saying, so it's like, this is a totally a non-argument.
And I feel like that's all Murray did the entire time was being like, look, I'm actually smarter than you and better than you.
And I'm a listen, you haven't traveled anywhere.
My left eye has traveled more miles than you have this year.
Like going and orbiting.
Yeah.
Have you seen it?
It's crazy.
unidentified
But I have a soft spot for people that have lazy eyes.
So we agree, but he's not even arguing the points.
He's kind of like, I don't know, making personal observations and this and that to avoid the actual subject, which is interesting because he, of course, knows what he's doing.
And it seems like maybe he actually doesn't have a solid argument and he knows that.
So he has to be like, well, you've never been there because it's very reminiscent of the liberals when they say like, well, are you a gay black woman?
It's a safe approach because they know if they actually get into an all-out discussion where you're talking about the policies, the problems and everything we're running into, they're going to get cornered.
No, but look, this is where you have to understand.
Like, back in 2004, Douglas Murray, you know, wrote a book about the progress of neoconservatism, right?
If you're new here or you're young.
These are the people who supported the invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan.
These are the warmongers.
And he justified the Iraq war.
So when you look at these people, Mike, Murray is less of really a Zionist.
He's less of really anything as he is really a neocon.
Zionism is heavily linked to neoconservatism.
There's a huge push between the two.
Maybe they're inextricably linked.
Maybe they're the same thing.
It doesn't really matter.
Maybe neoconservatism is an American political arm of Zionist infiltration.
But I will say this: the point is, is that we watched in the last election under Kamala Harris that the neocons, including Miss Cheney there and Kissinger and the others, flip-flopping and going over the Democratic Party.
Neocons embedded themselves in the Republican Party and captured them because they were able to weaponize the Zionist, you know, anti-Muslim, you know, rhetoric to push us into these forever decades-long wars.
What they want is blood.
Now you have Nikki Haley, right, on our side who still remains true, pushing, saying we got to go to war with Iran.
We're going to keep talking about this Murray stuff.
We have really great, really great discussions.
But guys, spring is coming up, and I've got something awesome to share with you guys today.
You guys know we've been working with fast-growing trees, which for me, I like things that are fast.
I'm on edge all the time.
I'm going crazy.
It's because I've got Zins in my foreskin.
No, I'm just kidding.
I'm circumcised.
I will say this, though.
I don't know how to trim anything else, like trees.
I'm not really somebody who's out there and knows how to take care of a garden, but I do like plants.
One thing that happens when you get married, you start your house, you have no furniture in your house, you have like a little milk carton and a water bottle in the fridge, and all of a sudden you start buying things when you're married, like ficuses.
I didn't even know what a ficus was.
Listen, guys, fast-growing trees is the biggest online nursery in the U.S. They've got thousands of plants, fruit trees, privacy trees, flowering shrubs, you name it, and over 2 million happy customers, which are just like me.
I've got a lemon tree, they deliver it straight to your door.
There's no mess.
You don't have to pick it up.
You know, people don't even have big cars these days.
What even do you buy?
What is a good plant?
They handpick and hand-select their plants.
They give you access to experts who help you to take care of your plants.
Plus, you can get anything from indoor to shaded to outdoor.
It's from fruit trees to just things that make your room look nice.
Honestly, add a little bit of spice to your room, to your house right now this spring and get planting straight to your door in just a few days.
Plus, it's like you have a date on Saturday.
You know, you can like order now.
And then, you know, your girl's gonna be like, hey, you have a ficus?
Exactly.
I told you, grab one of those.
But anyway, their plant experts are out here to help you.
Now, let me tell you, I'm personally obsessed with them.
I ordered a gorgeous lemon tree back in Frisco, unironically you're talking about, and it was a game changer.
Beautiful fruit too that grew on the tree.
And I'd waste entire Saturdays, obviously, just going around trying to buy plants for my wife.
They would die, but these ones stayed alive and they were actually high quality, beat the heat and everything.
Plus, I was paying a lot of money, and these are about 90% less than going to the other nurseries.
I'll tell you right now, check it out today.

But I will say, I will say, for people that are saying that I am jealous of his success, it must be nice to be gay and just end up in hell, but at least you sold books.
You know what I mean?
But it's like, but it's like, hey, at least you sold books.
And that's sort of like an understanding of these people where it's like, I do know where this kind of life ends.
And I'm not jealous of a person who lives for nothing.
And I kind of understand this is he's an agnostic, right?
And he, and I also found out too, you know, he's supposed to be a geopolitical expert.
I was thinking maybe Douglas is just used to crushing liberals and defeating liberals.
That when he came up against somebody that actually kind of, you know, knew what they were talking about or had like a semi-good argument, that it was, you know, he had to like deflect by saying, like, well, what do you know?
You know what I mean?
Like, you haven't been there?
Like, so that's what I was thinking.
Maybe that he'd never come up against someone's rivalry.
I just thought like every part about this was so funny because it was all about, you know, breaking the limits of space, right?
It was about sending women into space, which honestly, sometimes when I'm in an argument with one, I want nothing more than the ability to just get them out of here.
All the love that was in that capsule and all the um and all the heart and the feelings and all the things and like seeing Jeff before I left, but I just went like yeah, you know, job of the hot over here.
I had to come back.
I mean, we're getting married.
If I didn't come back, I would be that would be a bummer for me.
Only you, by the way, would say this to me.
You said, Jeff, if he, if you don't want to marry me, you don't have to send me to space.
What I'm saying is there's plenty of room for that on the show.
But my point was, was that this is a bad PR nightmare for feminism.
Because what did you think at the end?
It was cute.
I thought it was endearing too.
Like, part of why people hate women, I think it's cute.
They don't know.
Like, you want to help women.
You can build a little spacecraft.
Like, most of us just have a dream to waste $20,000 a year on, like, by the way, every girl I talk to once opened up a cafe, you know, that loses money.
And that's fine.
That's cute.
But if you're trying to get PR on a female, what you would do is be like, guys shouldn't watch it and go, that was so cute.
But, you know, as long as you're not asking anyone to move from the seat they're not supposed to be in, you're usually pretty safe.
Sam's actually being in Toronto.
Yeah, exactly.
But, you know, it's like you launched women in a penis.
Let's just summarize this.
You launch a bunch of actresses in a penis.
You have a girl moaning as it goes off.
It's just very weird.
It's very uncomfortable for all of us.
And then they talk about divine energy.
They bring butterflies.
You know, they scream.
And it's like, I feel like, why can't we just embrace feminine energy and just know, hey, look, girls that are, when our society has feminine women and masculine men, it's good.
And that's very cool.
If you have a bunch of masculine men coming together, I'm sure some women were involved, but like there's very few women in STEM, so probably not that many.
You go off into space and you put on a show for the girls and the girls love it and they're all giggly and laughing and talking about their feminine energy and their yoni eggs and whatever they're talking about.
To me, that's a great society.
That's cool, man.
Like the cool that we could do that.
But they have to make it, they have to try to spin the narrative that this was like a feminist, you know, launch into the future.
And I just don't even believe we've ever really been to outer space necessarily.
So I'm still questioning whether we ever went to the moon.
In the way, it's just because the way society is now, they're trying to make everything exactly the same, or you got to be some girl boss, you know, instead of respecting the beauty of what women have and the strength that men have, you know, instead trying to incorporate it all together and you're a girl boss and you could do, you know, it's just, it's crazy.
Because it so happened that one of the guys who died had like a twin brother, you know, like it just like, and he's like still alive that we found out after.
The one video I will say about space that I always found weird was the one where they said they destroyed the technology after they came back from the moon.
They're like, oh, we destroyed it, but we can't recreate it.
You know, like we can't recreate technology from the 60s.
Actually, Gerald and I, we had some disagreements.
So here's kind of a funny thing.
I think Crowder and I are still cool.
Gerald, I was talking to him, and like, you know, right before they released the AIPAC video, you saw that where they were kind of saying, like, everyone's kind of shifting now.
But like, you know how everyone has to shift a little bit to survive, right?
Sam Hyde put out a really interesting message here.
We're going to talk a little bit about SNL.
Sam Hyde's career.
I got to give a shout out for Sam Hyde for completely resurrecting and uncanceling himself.
That was a really quality move in the right direction.
But, you know, Sam said something here because this clip we'll watch from SNL.
He said, Charlie Kirk wrote this.
He said from the clip we're watching in a moment.
At this rate, I might watch SNL again.
The culture is shifting.
This is hilarious and promising.
First time in 15 years, I've seen the LGBT third rail be mocked on TV.
Watch.
And Sam said, No, man, they're just doing what's needed to survive.
Behind the scenes, the people who work on the shit will always be malicious little gay vipers who want to stick 50 needles in your kid and get you fired for breathing wrong, rotten through and through.
But I reminded Sam two things.
He didn't even write this tweet.
You're speaking to a social media ex-writer, probably a young girl or boy under 25.
I used to know the previous one with no real world experience.
It's about appealing to boomers to make it seem like we're changing the culture to lock in donations at galas.
I think that there's this, the right gets really tricked by people who just give them a little attention.
Like they want so badly to be accepted.
Everybody I know on the right, pretty much had a failed career in Hollywood or a failed comedy career, and then they come into the right.
Like think about when Roseanne Barr sort of came in to adopt the right.
It's when she got fired off her show for that ambient tweet, and all of a sudden she's a right-wing commentator.
Look at what's happening even with like Bill Maher or whatever.
I mean, what's his future career?
Now he's got to adopt and be like pro-Trump a little bit.
Everyone knows the culture's shifting.
Now that more than half the country voted for him in terms of the actual voting block, people know for the market share, this is our benefit.
I'm not complaining.
You've got to adopt a little bit, which is why we're even seeing mainstream advertisers approach us these days because people are realizing, look, it's actually becoming bad for the market share to not at least try to appeal a little bit to the right wing.
And so I think people think that the culture's shifting.
I just think that it's bad for business now not to be right wing, which is still a good thing.
But I still think, you know, long short, I don't think things are actually changing.
I think Sam Hai has a correct, you know, gauge here that the left is still evil, but they're smart and they're trying to survive.
That's what I think.
I think they're going to continue to survive.
So a lot of the right wing, I was going to say, I'm not going to accuse Crowder of this, but it's like, you know, when you have Ben Shapiro saying, yeah, you know, maybe we should defund Israel and Matt Walsh being like, I've always said that we should defund Israel.
But that's Daily Wire saying you're allowed to say this because we're losing our market share.
We lost Brett Cooper.
We lost Candace Owens.
We need to make it look like we're a little more based.
And it's not about authenticity, I don't think.
It's about appealing to people for a lost share.
And I only say that because, you know, Gerald wrote me, I'm not, it wasn't personal, but he asked me, he's like, hey, what's up with this USS Liberty thing?
You know, and I thought that was a weird message to get from him.
And then I explained it to him in detail and he never responded.
I was like, I went really spurred.
I was like, let me tell you about the USS Liberty.
I mean, every creator has to evolve because it gets stagnant after a while.
And it's like the movement has shifted in a right sort of way and they have to change.
Like even Charlie Cook or all the mainstream guys have to shift.
I mean, I know it's going to be a lot for Ben Shapiro to shift, but it's like, I saw that as well, where he was like, maybe they should get off America's money.
And I mean this because we're actually a terrible show.
Mike knows that.
We like, this whole show started because every show was bad and I believed in myself enough.
My dad used to tell me something when I was younger.
He used to say, I teached you everything I knew and I knew nothing, you know?
So it's kind of like that where I'm like, you know, I know how to make bad things.
I've been failing my entire life and pissing people off with my behavior.
So what if I just translated that and made a show that was just as bad?
And what's crazy is, it's like, we're a small show.
We don't have a lot of funding.
We have like 50,000 followers on Rumble now because we lost our YouTube channel.
And we're still getting about 100,000 views per episode.
Ben Shapiro is only averaging about 220 now, which means that Nick Fuentes is now averaging on a show on Rumble.
Nick Fuentes gets more views on his show than Ben Shapiro gets on YouTube.
And YouTube should be easy to get views.
Now, Ben Shapiro, of course, still dominates in the podcast downloads.
He's still one of the top 10 podcasts.
He's not going away.
But in terms of like, that's a reflection of youth, right?
Because a lot of teens aren't on podcasts.
Young people are not on YouTube engaging with Ben's content.
They notice that these guys are smart.
Okay.
These are very smart people and they have to do something about it.
So don't be surprised if all of your favorite commentators, they create a new gatekeeping where it's like, well, you can criticize AIPAC, you can criticize the funding, but anything further than that, they'll still X you out.
And they kind of try to set the new goalposts to what we can talk about.
The key thing is, is that they just want to make sure we're not allowed to get more market share, which is why I've noticed these people don't have me on their show anymore.
Okay, by the way, we've been talking a lot about the need for testosterone, guys.
And I'm going to tell you what.
There's literally only two ways that you can get your testosterone up.
It is actually through lifestyle change and through supplementation.
And unfortunately, there's a lot of pills and things that they say you can take, but it gets digested in your stomach.
It breaks down your stomach acid.
It doesn't actually help you.
There's only actual two delivery methods that you can use to boost your testosterone with supplementation.
And that's sublingual, something that absorbs under your tongue right direct to your blood, or you have to inject it intramuscularly into your ass.
And a lot of people do that, but a lot of people don't want to do that.
So if you want to actually change your lifestyle, I'm going to tell you guys right now, testosterone is at record lows due to diet exposure to environmental toxins.
I actually was shocked to find out that an average 18-year-old guy has lower grip strength than like a 60-year-old guy did in 1950.
And that's literally saying something, right?
People, I mean, except for the fact that it's crazy, I was finding out that the left hands of 18-year-olds are a lot stronger than the right hands.
If you're feeling fatigue, diminished strength, reduced libido, mood swings, and overall loss of vitality, this can keep you from feeling your best self.
And I remind people with testosterone, it's very deceptive if you have low T, because you could be very masculine, right?
You might have a deep voice.
It doesn't mean if you have low T that you're not a masculine person because you're not masculine doesn't mean you have don't have high T. Ever seen a WNBA player?
It's another, you know, they have very high testosterone.
Now, let me tell you guys this.
Man's Edge, which one of you was edging during that last launch, is this product that we've been using, that we've been pushing.
And the reason why this is important is this will help you boost your testosterone.
I'm going to tell you guys, I will never tell you, look, just take this and your testosterone is going to increase exponentially.
It will, but you should also combine this with like try to do at least 50 push-ups a day, go get sunlight, right?
You got to get some physical activity.
You can't sit on your ass all day and realize that you're just suddenly going to become a man.
You've got to make lifestyle choices, take control of your family.
The reason why is, is that all these things that people take to boost their testosterone, like fenugreek, IGF-1, NO2, and more help you feel your best.
But studies show that fenugreek actually increases testosterone by up to 46%.
However, like I mentioned, most people take the pills and you lose almost all of the effective active ingredient.
Now, this has 98% absorption because it goes under your tongue, ensuring you receive the full benefits of these clinically proven ingredients.
If you're over the age of 30, you should buy some, but actually now, even over the age of 18, people have low T.
Now, I'm not going to say who, but one of the people who've been a longtime viewer took us up on the offer, grabbed some and started using it for a few months.
And he said it increased his sex life.
Like he was able, I know this is like pretty graphic for this woman in the room, but you know, your erections will stay longer, harder.
You can actually go multiple rounds.
This is like true.
When you have high testosterone, you might find that your love life is, you know, dwindling in your marriage or whatever.
You might just be fatigued.
Get that energy up.
I always say, as a Christian, being celibate or not having sex with a lot of women should be a choice you make under the power of God, but it should be a temptation.
Like you should want and be attracted.
If you're not feeling those kinds of things, you're not getting boners in the morning.
You have low tee.
You need to make this a part of your recovery.
Plus, you can also get their amazing, which I have right here.
I haven't used this yet.

So you know what it is.
You know how it is.
And you always say when your testosterone's been going up, you've been able to keep weight off.
Just your pump stays longer when you go to the gym.
And there's other side effects.
Doing obs start becoming sexy because they're curved.
But no, keeping the pump has been a big thing for me, too, because the past few days, the gym has been kind of closed for us, the one we've been going to.
Even if you don't get this, go get your testosterone tested somewhere on a blood test.
You might find out it's very low.
You might have free testosterone that was low.
My numbers were like 800, which is supposed to be good, but then my free testosterone was half that.
So even if you have testosterone, it might not be available to be used.
Isn't that shocking?
I had low free tea.
No one would have ever guessed that with me.
But I've been supplementing and doing my own thing, and it's been really, really awesome.
I'm a little more extreme on how I do it, but you should check it out today at tboosnow.com promo code Elijah.
So, but talking about this, I want to play this clip because gay people renting kids is a weird thing.
I think everyone's starting to realize that maybe the left has created a too far of a standard, right?
This idea of gay people renting wombs, right?
Started with adoption.
Can gay people adopt?
And now gay people are growing kids in other people's wombs and they're raising kids that they're like creating kids through in vitro fertilization through IVF.
They're doing in vivo fertilization.
They're literally sperm, you know, injecting sperm into women's vaginas and impregnating them.
Very weird stuff.
It's very questionable.
And I think the left is realizing that they need to draw the line because they're losing the public.
And so now they're making fun of gay people on SNL.
Can I say, despite that interesting episode last time that had to be removed off the internet, I do think that's a genius thing to ask people like, hey, what's your favorite color?
And they're like, red.
By the way, next question.
Why do gay couples always adopt boys?
Do you know I read a real answer to this?
Like, someone answered this directly.
The Mendoza Report exposed it.
It was a Mendoza Report live.
But I want to hear your personal opinion because this is what the left says about it.
Another thing I think is strange is also how the speaker of the house, Mike Johnson, he adopted a boy and they monitor each other's porn, but that's a whole nother.
It's like, well, the only person I know that does sex, like has a weird sexual relationship is James Lindsay, who checks out women's asses with his gay daughter.
Like, I don't want to be so like, I think sometimes some pastors get a lot of heat for being rich in terms of like, you know, Greg Laurie, for instance, I think is a good guy, and he's also a successful author.
So it's like they like, they like take a picture that he has like a $2,000 watch on, and the guy's worth like eight, $10 million.
And it's like, really, he's a successful author.
He's made all these programs outside of his church.
He doesn't even take a salary from my understanding.
He's just like a famous author.
Okay, if you just happen to be rich and a Christian, there's nothing against having wealth.
In fact, wealth can be a blessing from God.
It can be a curse as well because it can be very distracting.
But I do think there is a little bit of like a lack of reverence in terms of like, if you are wealthy and you are a pastor, it's one thing even owning a Rolls-Royce, but like driving it onto the stage, I feel like it just kind of detracts from God.
Like, why are we, yeah, I don't understand that one.
I feel like there's a line to be drawn here.
And I probably, this is kind of why I left the Protestant church.
I can't deal with this.
I can't deal with this anymore because my personal experience with Protestant churches, I've been to many, is that the majority of them today, the non-denominational ones, they're either this if they're big or they're trying to be this.
They're just on a lower budget and more dysfunctional.
They might have one laser, not 30, and then they still spend 20 minutes of the sermon giving anecdotes about their kids, and they're still trying to be cool and edgy, but it's not maybe this scale.
But there's a lot of like it becomes like a podcast.
Like, there's nothing about really, there's no reverence.
But I can see they're trying to draw in a younger crowd, trying to get them more excited about learning the word.
But once the word starts up, we don't want to be hearing TED Talks actually dive into the word, what Jesus had to say, and actual biblical matter versus, you know.
But okay, so what's even better is you go, okay, so like, obviously, this is like, you know, maybe there's like a one-off church and there's like some weird things.
However, I want to give a shout out.
So I used to be a youth minister, right?
And I used to get these emails from people.
I know the whole business side of the Protestant church.
A lot of these churches, like there's this curriculum and they sort of sell it to them.
Like, they don't even write their sermons anymore.
And it's like, hey, you want to do the roller coaster series?
And a company, like a non-Christian company, creates a roller coaster and they bring it to the different churches and they sell the series and rent the equipment out and they do this series and it goes around the whole country.
So I thought, somebody else, they made this roller coaster.
This has got to be happening at more than one church.
This has to be being sold to churches.
There's no way this is a one-off thing.
It's too expensive.
So I was looking.
Is there any other churches who also have done the roller coaster?
So, let me tell you guys how the business works on the back end.
If you guys have to go to your, well, okay, you're welcome to.
I was going to say, so I was shocked at the price of this stuff.
And like, when you're talking to these people, I was in a smaller church, and it actually was a little bit helpful.
Like, I helped bring online tithes and stuff to a small church because it is hard for the little churches.
Like, they don't, you know, don't have a lot of tech people, and people don't tithe with cash, and they are unable to sort of operate.
But it's crazy how they target churches, and they get you on these like contracts for four years, and it's like four grand a month.
Do you know how expensive this stuff is?
Like, they would come to me with curriculum, like this, this roller coaster thing, and like, it's like $25,000, right?
Like, a four-week sermon with the roller coasters, $25,000 that you're paying these companies.
I would get marketed all the time with a sermon series for one month for $10,000, $2,500 a Sunday.
And I would read it, and it was essentially chat GPT stuff.
Like, it'd be like, you know, and it literally is like, it's like they have the songs that go with it, that tie with it, the licensing that goes with it.
And it's such a business that like we ran into an issue at our churches where we couldn't put the name, the words to the worship songs on the screens for people to sing along because we didn't pay the license to put the words up to the worship songs on the screen.
And you have to put like, you have to buy the license in order to worship God, or you can't sing the worship songs and put the lyrics up.
I'm not joking, which is why if you go to guitar tabs and look up the chords for worship songs, there's what's called like variations.
And the reason why, it's not a different key.
They have to change the variations and change some words to try to get past the copyright so the churches can sing it without paying a license to the record label.
Wow.
And I've experienced all this myself trying to run the back end of things.
The church I was at was not corrupt.
It was a very good community church or as a family church where people aren't like that, wouldn't know that was the case.
But I got really disgusted by having meetings with people and you couldn't even tell if they were Christian.
They'd be like, so you're going to sign?
So you want the series with the $10,000 says, you want the roller coaster?
It's an extra $10,000 for the roller coaster.
And almost all youth ministries across the country, if a church is bigger than 5,000, it's like college students who are not born again, don't know God, and they're just buying these series.
And they're just, it comes with props.
They give you boxes with like the crafts, the props.
It's a literal full economic business.
One day I should probably, we should do a video on that.
So, so we'll get off the church thing in a second, but you know, I'm not going to get too into my spiritual journey, but I needed to get back to church, right?
And I'm not a Catholic, so I'm not Catholic.
But I did go to, I did start attending a Catholic church.
And what I did kind of realize is that, you know, I get why a lot of people leave the Catholic Church, especially if they were raised, it was cultural.
And they may see the emotion.
They may see the what appears to be sincerity of people, you know, really, you know, singing to God, the emotionalism of it all.
And they may end up, you know, feeling like, hey, I was missing that in the body of Christ.
But when I went, when I've gone to the Catholic Church, I had a different perspective of it.
And I'm not familiar with the Catholic liturgy, but what it seemed like to me is that everyone was a very reverent of God and that the service wasn't about a star on a roller coaster.
It seemed like we were together and worshiping and there was unification of what we said, what we did.
And there was a real like, it seemed like God was holy, right?
It feels like a holy place where I didn't cry, but I almost felt emotional because I felt like I could see my lack of holiness while I was there because I couldn't take the sacrament.
I couldn't take communion because it's sort of your commitment also to the authority of the church.
And I'm not a Catholic.
And, you know, when you go to like Protestant church, they're so big.
I'm like, even if you've already given your life to God, just raise your hand and re-give it to him to one person, two person, seven people, ten people gave their lives to the Lord this today.
And it reminds me a little bit of like Rice Christians overseas, where, you know, a lot of people go on mission trips and think they led people to Christ, but they just want free food and then they pretend to come to Christ.
Half the time people go to a Catholic country where everyone's Catholic and they'll reconvert to Protestantism just to get free handouts or to be a part of, you know, get tithes and offerings.
And I feel like that's a lot of with churches that people are lacking community.
They're lacking vibes, fun.
They want like some quality friends.
So they go to church, they sort of find that sort of positive energy, but I don't know if they're finding God because are they being transformed by the renewing of their mind?
And I know for me, going to church and everyone being like, what's up, brother?
Nice to meet you.
I like it because it feeds my flesh.
It makes me feel good and happy.
But there's never like a pull to like, hey, transform your life.
You know, leave your old self, right?
Like, and be transformed.
Like, be a part of the body.
It feels like it's a me experience and myself.
And I'm finding an emotional experience, but I'm not seeing the power of God, you know, changing my life in that sort of environment.
And most of the friends, too.
Everyone's just fornicating, sleeping around, doing whatever.
No judgment.
I've done all those things myself too.
But I'm saying like, you don't really see a very strong push.
There's exceptions, but I'm talking about particularly mega churches, the modern non-denominational.
There will always be genuine Christians inside.
I'm not judging everyone there.
There's real, there's fake Christians and real Christians in every type of church.
This is not, you know, saying one person can't go to heaven if they're part of another body.
But I do think that the direction of non-denominational has really shifted so far away from reverence.
Maybe it was good intentions to get away from liturgy to sort of, you know, help people to be authentic that now it's sort of become more inauthentic than even Catholic or Orthodox churches.
Like it's become a, it's become a cultural like experience because it's cool.
I mean, yeah, non-Christians, like Justin Bieber, everyone, like they'll go to, they go to Hillsong and like, hell yeah, that was great, man.
They were selling seats at New York Hillsong, you know, like selling front row seats.
Well, that's why a lot of them struggle in the long run.
You know, when you become a Christian, life doesn't just get easy.
They always say the devil doesn't rob empty houses.
You know, he always goes after the ones that are getting away.
So the most important thing is to build the foundation on top of Christ.
Christ is your foundation.
And then the wife of the church is the extra bonus to it to be together, to grow together.
So when it just becomes like a hangout spot or a music concert and you're not really diving in what I was saying before, diving into the word of God, you know, feeding your soul, filling that hole that's empty because we all have empty hole in us, a God-size hole.
It's like, oh, you know, look out for the wolves in sheep's clothing or sheep's clothing.
Is that like a sheepskin condom or something like that?
Like people are putting those on.
Like, it's true, latex-free.
I don't know if you're experiencing that.
I mean, I know, I know not all Protestants are like, no, I'm saying not all Protestants or anything have bad intentions, but I don't know if your experience is that maybe it's become commercialized to the point is what I was bringing out before that it's kind of like anything that starts out, you know, authentic.
Church reminds me, we were at a diner, like an old school diner, and it was like a mom-and-pop shop.
You know, like the burgers don't taste like they're mass produced.
And we were talking about how like life used to be like this.
Like there was individual, like, like private-owned businesses.
And now we've lost that to like chilies and Applebee's.
And there's like commercialization of even just like small-time restaurants.
You go to a rural town and it's like Applebee's and Chili's in the middle of Buck Nowhere.
And the food tastes disgusting.
It makes you feel sick.
And they've commercialized food to the point to where it's like you've lost any realness to it, right?
Our food's not even real.
And it feels like that with church a little bit, that it's like become a commercial center.
I don't know.
I don't know if you agree with me, but I'm not judging people who go to, you might have a good church.
I just, I haven't had a good experience at these kinds of places.

We're going to talk a little bit about Lily Phillips and some of the things that have been going on here with some of these medical and scientific scams.
So I was reading a recent stat that OnlyFans, girls 18 to 25 in the United States, it's about 3 to 5% of girls aged 18 to 25 in the United States have had or have an OnlyFans.
And the reason why there's some deviation is because it's hard to understand if some girls have multiple accounts.
But with the amount of accounts registered under those age groups in the United States compared to how many of those girls live in our country, 3 to 5% of girls are choosing pornography as a means of career, which is, in my opinion, a huge, huge failure of the men in our country.
So I think that that's what's kind of like for guys, though, it's not that it's any better, but for guys, it's like, okay.
But one of the alarming things now is I was reading that, you know, 70% of statistics are made up on the spot.
However, it was about a fifth of pornography is now being consumed by women, which to me is weird because that means that there's a reprogramming of women.
Because I don't think, like, not to get super graphic, but like my point is, is like everyone knows, even if you're kind of an ugly guy, but you get money or you're tall or things like this, you can still get a woman to be sexually attracted to you because they're not just walking around naturally thinking about penises and how they look so good.
Guys are looking at women's bodies.
So of course, this visual, you know, oh, I want to look at a woman naked.
I want to see her have sex.
That makes sense.
But women getting involved at all is kind of weird.
And on top of that, even liberal women, sometimes like they're grossed out by porn, don't want to get involved.
But like young girls, this is like, this is Billie Eilish now, her, are saying they got involved at a young age.
And I was shocked when I used to work with youth, the amount of people that were saying they got, you know, started their, their older brothers showed it to them.
They were seven, six.
Like for me, I thought I was young, but apparently porn is becoming normalized for really, really young kids.
And to me, that might be at the at the foundation of a lot of our problems.
Because how could you ever think normal or be normal if your dope mean receptors are fried at a young age?
But I mean, the literature and the things that they're teaching kids nowadays, it's disgusting.
And then you have all the politicians who want to fight and continue to just leave these books, these horrible books that are showing kids, even graphic images on a lot of them.
You know, the liberals are defending that a lot there.
But as we know, seeing pornography online can be extreme.
Yeah, it's not normal.
It depends what type of pornography I watch.
And that's what I was saying.
And when you look back and reflect on the fact that you had access to this pornography and were looking at it from the age of 11, and not just you, any Gen Z who's got a smartphone.
Yeah.
Does that suggest to you that maybe your generation has been let down by politicians or the tech companies or even parents?
I think it's hard because sex is a part of life.
And I don't think.
Not when you're 11.
Well, I think you should be learning from it from that age.
I do believe that because that's when you start to think about things like that.
But learning.
Maybe not learning.
Yeah, maybe not learning from pornography.
But I do think understanding it more from that age would be helpful.
Is there a direct link between you watching pornography as you grew up and the decisions you've made to do what you do now?
That was, that was, we talked about that is like, there was a guy, there's a documentary on this, by the way, and it's not even rated 18 plus on YouTube.
I did, I did see it.
And it was actually crazy because there was a guy who volunteered to clean up the cum for over a thousand men and he was like happy about it.
And they were talking in, you know, they were talking during the interview and they were talking about how this guy like, you know, ate her out after she had sex with 800 guys and she didn't shower.
And I was just thinking about some of that stuff.
Like, you know what I mean?
And by the way, and that was just Joey, you know what I mean?
So I was like, that's my own editor.
But I, but I also was thinking like, man, she just said a crazy statement.
I don't think I could think about life without pornography.
And unfortunately, I'd have to say the same thing for myself too.
Like, I can never remember not knowing what pornography was.
And I think I learned about sex through pornography too.
And I'd say most guys did.
And they wouldn't want to admit that to a woman or like say that.
But I think that that is the majority of the population is learning about sex from like pretty extreme and hardcore porn.
Well, I think that's also why we're getting in the position that we're in.
You have all these people at a young age watching and just putting all that inside them and thinking that that's normal.
And then also with the OnlyFans, you got all these other, these women coming out saying, oh, I'm making more than a football player, one of them was making or something like that.
And a lot of them aren't going to make money like that, but there's a lot that do make money.
But it's just, it's terrible, the culture that we're accepting now.
And it's only going to get worse the more we glorify this type of behavior.
Well, but it's, but what I'm saying is like, it's getting to the point now where this girl, like, you have to have sex with a thousand men.
And even then, I hear that and my, my receptors are so fried.
I'm like, okay, that's just what people do now.
And that's my point.
It's like, we're just living a world where we've accepted this.
I don't know if you can really recover in a culture like this, but also like kind of like we gave black people rappers and football teams to aspire to, and it's given them nothing to be.
With women, we've literally told them that their main aspiration is going to be prostitution and porn.
The easiest way to get a job is to either marry a billionaire or to become a prostitute, which to me is like it is a Weimar, it is a Weimar ending.
Like, that is a point to where, like, when I watched, there's a CBC document you guys should look up on YouTube.
It's on YouTube, CBC, the Canadian Broadcasting Company.
It's old, so it's actually based on Weimar.
You should just look it up, type Weimar CBC documentary.
And when they were talking about how women would get pregnant intentionally so that they could get more money in the streets where the prostitutes were pregnant, like that's when you, that's what I'm talking about, like fucked up, where you have women trying to get pregnant to make money as a prostitute.
I was watching it and I was shocked, but are we really that far?
We're like, you know, girls are girls are dreaming to turn 18, and then guys are like waiting at the minute, and then they upload a what is like bad baby, right?
Well, you're looking at me like I need to say something.
I don't like the fact that we have to talk about this woman or show videos of her or even know that she exists.
And every time she does this so that she can get publicity, every time they make documentaries or interview, and it's like, just stop speaking about her.
I'm glad you said that because actually Elijah has something queued up right now, which is what some people might say a gentleman, a scholar, a poet, a true aristocrat of our time.
No, that, but yeah, Ye's music is pretty damn good, always.
I mean, he's a, he's a, I mean, he's a weird guy, and he's definitely like not some sort of like a moral equivalent.
We talked about this show, though.
I do think, I'm not going to repeat myself a million times, but I do think what he's doing is like sort of just the same thing as the, if you're new to the show, I think he's just doing what rock stars used to do in a Protestant Christian world by like, you know, hailing Satan and stuff like that back in the 80s, the rock stars.
It's like, what's a bigger middle finger to a, you know, a sports team-led industry like Hollywood, right?
Than to talk and call yourself a Nazi and like praise Hitler.
He's like putting a middle finger to their own industry, basically, like being rebellious.
That being said, I want to talk a little bit about what's going on.
So you guys might have noticed something.
You guys might have noticed that the channel name changed to Rift TV.
We just changed it to Rift TV slash slightly offensive.
I think we might have to put a space.
We know it's kind of hard for you guys to find the channel tonight.
A lot of you guys did find it.
So we'll kind of explain to you guys.
Let me go to my, let me go here.
So what you'll notice is if you want to, what I've done is I sort of bought out Vigilant News.
You guys know I was like the CEO of Vigilant News.
We had a lot of shows.
We were having a good time doing a lot of production and decided to merge what I was doing there and absorb it into the slightly offensive podcast network.
So if you go here to the website here on my screen, you can bring that up.
So now if you go to rifftv.com, we are creating our first decentralized network.
Right now, we have signed Keith Woods.
Get a little cheers for Keith Woods.
We have signed Keith Woods.
And why that's significant is he's a great researcher.
We have Sarah Stock.
We have myself.
We're working on a couple of other people, including Kai Schwemmer.
We're working on his thing.
And we're going to be growing from there as well.
And the reason why we're doing this is because what sort of happened across the board is that, you know, when I signed on to networks, you know, a lot of people say, why would you start a network?
It's all about being independent.
And ideologically, that's true.
But we are an independent network.
And what that means is like, okay, Candace Owens, well, she's independent.
And look at these people.
Okay, yes, that's true.
But Candace Owens built her audience off of millions of dollars of promotion and energy and staff from Turning Point USA.
She used to work for Blaze as well, as well as the Daily Wire.
And so when you have millions and millions of followers and you've already worked in the industry and you know how to run a show and market and you're there and all the power to her, this doesn't take away from how amazing she is.
She was crushed by them and she came back stronger.
But you can't take away the fact that, you know, a lot of energy went into building her up.
And people like myself, you know, the reason why they can't crush me, even though they try and they try and try and try, no matter what they say and they lie and lie and lie, is because I know how to run shows.
I know how to do the back end.
And we have Mendoza from Mendoza Report.
But I'm saying, you know, we have our own, you know, internal ad agency.
He does, he does a really good job.
He helps finance the entire show and keep it running.
And so we kind of keep it going.
In fact, we finance the show better to the fact that we're up to, Mike, you're up to what, $44 a month now?
We need to take the power of a network, the legal power, right?
That's what kept me out of jail on January 6th.
I had network money.
We need to take young people and we need to actually build them up, right?
We want to take Sarah's stock, like when she came here with 7,000 followers on X, like 134 on Instagram.
Now she's what, 35,000 on Instagram since she signed with us, about 100,000 on X. You know, we bring in Keith and Keith, the first post Keith does for us gets retweeted by Andrew Tate.
It's half a million views.
You know, I mean, it's like, that's the kind of network we want to bring in.
And it's not to say we're their success.
They're their success.
They're the ones building themselves.
But, you know, one of the cool things is like, we're paying for their trips.
We're flying them around.
We're getting them on shows.
We're booking them.
And one of the people as well, too, Snowflake, of course, which you would know, I don't need to really announce him.
He's on here and he'll be co-hosting with me.
We have a news show.
You guys know I was doing a show called The Daily Dose on Vigilant.
We're kind of edging it up a little bit.
And now it'll be here Monday, Wednesday, Friday at 3 p.m. Eastern Time.
It'll be like our news segment where it's really just covering the news.
And you go, if you don't care about this stuff, you sign off.
That doesn't bother me because this is, I said at the end, is not really for people to care.
But what it is, is it's saying, hey, we need to come in and Daily Wire has failed the masses.
You know, I'm not going to talk crap on any other network.
People I've worked with have written written letters begging Netanyahu for citizenship.
You know, it's embarrassing stuff.
And they're all, they're great people, but what I notice is missing is somebody with the technical know-how, somebody who knows how to get financing, knows how to pull in advertisers, and can sponsor people who are edgy, who may not be able to find that mainstream relevance, bring us all together and create our own network and force ourselves into the mainstream.
So rather than having to be and say what I say, I have a luxury where people wonder, how do you say what you say and still stay in the mainstream, get invited to me at colleges, get on shows, do whatever you want, stay on the platforms.
It's because, well, maybe I've learned how to do that.
And so rather than gatekeeping that, we're extending that out and we're building a team.
And that's why we've got Earl Gray here as the editor-in-chief of RiftTV.com.
He's growing.
If you are interested or you know anyone who's a really, really, you know, accomplished journalist or writer and has been there, you can always reach out.
No, But putting that into perspective, we are going to be a decentralized network in terms of we're the first one where we help our people, but we don't control their editorial.
So we're not going to be telling them what they can and can't say.
And we are going to let them speak their mind and talk about whatever they want from racial consciousness to what's going on overseas, from Zionism to the economy to adolescence.
I mean, the topics aren't going to be restricted, but we're just going to do it.
Nobody's done this before.
I promise you.
This has not been done.
And nobody's trying to do it because it's fucking stupid.
Why the hell would you, why the hell would you try to build a network in the hardest way to fund and build a network?
You know why?
Because we have morals, we have standards, and we believe that we can do it because we're up for a good fucking challenge.
And yeah, and Snowy, I know you've been making the content, so you'll see the change of Rift TV.
You've been enjoying it.
He's been producing here, but he's also been making content.
And so, you know, I think I really appreciate you guys.
I just want to kind of say, end on this note.
You know, what we're embarking upon is only possible because you guys are a part of this community and you guys watch and you guys, you know, are here.
So any way that you ever want to help out, I'll never, I'm never saying you got to give us money, anything.
I mean, literally liking the videos, obviously watching the videos, but the best way we're going to actually get this out here is by like word of mouth, sharing the content with people.
So you're going to see here on this channel, more shows are going to be popping up.
I'm not going to tell you what they are, but pretty soon within a couple of weeks, you'll start seeing Sarah Stocks segment coming out as well.
You know, once a week, you'll see things growing.
So you're going to see a lot more content, but there's a lot of ways sometimes.
Maybe they don't like this show, but Rift reports more news-based and you can kind of get your parents to start watching that or people to wake them up.
We've paired up with some of the really, we're really pairing up with the real people in the industry.
We're kind of going in deep and we're going in subversively to establish something that doesn't exist.
So it's going to be really hard.
A lot of people are going to attack us.
They're going to slander us.
We already got our first hit article in like New York News, you know, like just talking crap, whatever.
But hey, you know what?
Fuck them.
They're going to come.
They're going to talk shit.
They're going to do whatever.
But I think the truth is going to set us free.
And within a few years, I really do believe that if we keep, you know, putting our head down and putting out the content that people are going to come and are going to consume the truth.
That's all you guys want.
It's just the truth.
But we got to get it out to more people than just us weirdos who are like just here on the other side of Rumble.
We got to get it out to the mainstream.
So we're rebuilding on YouTube.
We're staying on Instagram.
We're actually building on Facebook.
We're going to keep it out to all the main platforms and really appreciate it.
And the person who's responsible for any of the failures that could happen is Earl Graceley's taking all the hits for the entire community.
And of course, the real reason why we watch the show and what we've been waiting for is Mike plug his ex account, which we know is actually the best part of the show.
And for those of you guys that are around, make sure that you join.
We're on Censored right now, too.
It's a video streaming platform.
We're there.
And if you want to get this show, plus Gavin's and so much more.
Gavin's going to be on the show on the Rift Report, actually, the new show on April 30th.
Anthony Cumio will be coming on as well for Almost Sirius.
You guys know we have all those extra shows, but you can join using promo code offensive at censored.tv/slash offensive.
Join the community.
Get a decentralized media.
And guys, people have like, you know, Hulu and this and that.
Have multiple subscriptions.
Like, join censored.
Join the people who are trying to get the word out and stay, you know, honest and truthful without, you know, holding back, especially because they don't.
Plus, shout out to Gavin's audience, which was very rude and hateful towards me and absolutely savage, which I expected nothing less.
You guys are awesome.
I appreciate it.
Have a great rest of the week, as always.
Shout out to the Discord and may God bless the United States of America.
