Time Text
America has been a dangerous and dog-eat-dog place for a long time.
We've had plenty of race riots, violent crime waves, and drug epidemics that rose, crested, and eventually receded.
Sam lived through most of them.
But this America feels different.
Virtually no one believes our greatest days are ahead of us, that one brave leader on a white horse is coming to set things straight, or that even our basic systems of food, medicine, and energy are likely to meet our needs over the next decade or two tops.
We're not peddling in fear-mongering.
We're calling things as we see them in the hopes of giving our audience a head start on preparing for even harder days ahead.
One of our very few advantages is seeing the world as it is, not as we fantasize it to be.
And even if we end up wrong, well, you'll have put in a little surplus labor into making yourselves and your families stronger and safer.
Our special guest this week has lived in or near America's seedy underbelly for most of his life, working odd jobs, fighting his way out of more than a few hairy situations and writing about it all the while.
We will pick his brain for more than a few tips this week, and no doubt he's got some wild yarns to spin as well.
So, Mr. Producer, let's go.
Welcome, everyone, to episode 142 of Full House, the world's most clear-eyed show for white fathers, aspiring ones, and the whole biofam.
I am, as always, your illusion-free host, Coach Finstock, back with another hour or two tops of the finest commentary, Fit for Man and Beast.
Before we meet the birth panel, though, big thanks to our buddy Longshanks and Iron Haas for their kind support of the show this week.
And I did want to pause here just for a moment to note that we are seeing the same names month in, month out as our dons of donations.
We don't do this for the money, but if you've enjoyed the show for years or just the past couple weeks, take a load off our regulars and check us out at givesendgo.com/slash fullhouse or full-house.com and the support us tab.
And with that, the PSA is over and we will get cracking.
First up with us this week, if we ever get our own movie studio up and running, I can't think of a better pair for a buddy cop flick cruising the streets of urban America and taking out the trash than our special guest and our very own Sam.
Welcome back, big guy.
Yeah, thanks, Coach.
That's good.
Yeah, I'm looking forward to listening to James.
I was reading some of his missives and couldn't help but appreciate his forays into Chicago.
I'm familiar with some of those areas he mentioned, so maybe we can get to that later.
But yeah, his style makes me think of some other writers of different eras, like a Jim Goad with the Answer Me or maybe the beat writers of the 60s or something, or a little bit mixed in, a little bit of that mixed in at least.
So yeah, I was at a great wedding last weekend, and I was out of town.
So I attended Mass, found a Tridentine Mass nearby, attended there, and a priest was very based.
I won't go into all that now.
But so we come out and we go turn the corner, and what's right across the street?
A synagogue.
So we took some pictures, and probably somebody was taking pictures of me taking pictures of it.
Yeah, anyways, it was a good time, a good outdoors location.
And we all enjoyed being outdoors and doing things outdoors.
So there you go.
Good stuff.
Thanks, Sam.
And you and James are roughly the same age, or you're at least the same generation.
So you guys have the same sort of frame of reference for American evolution, which we'll get into later.
No smasher this week.
So we move on to our talented producer who had the gall to admit just before the show that he doesn't buy any of our special guest books.
He just downloads them for free off of Telegram.
Rolo, for shame.
Well, you know, money's tight these days, but I got to show my support however I can.
Damn straight.
I always enjoy our special guests on podcasts, and I will cop to never having bought a book before, but that changes after the show.
And we're going to ask him which one he recommends people start with.
And with that, finally, our very special and very patient guest.
He is, of course, a notorious pugilist, prosaist, peripatetic, and the proprietor of many fine books, which can be found at jameslafon.com.
From the mean streets of Baltimore to the Antifa-ridden streets of Portland.
James, welcome to Full House.
Thanks for having me on.
Our pleasure, big guy.
We haven't, you and I have not spoken since we were on the fatherland together, probably four, maybe even five years ago.
So I enjoyed that one, and this is long overdue.
How are you?
Before I became homeless.
Yeah, you were still, I think you were living at some lady's house back then, somewhere in Baltimore.
But have you really been, you've been wandering America for that long now?
December 11th, Monday night to Tuesday morning, 2017.
Two different pairs of young men came after me, and they were the only humans I saw over 12 miles of Baltimore City and Baltimore County, other than the bus driver.
And that was my 19th and 20th attack that year.
So when I got to work, after the two veterans decided to rub me out, because I obviously didn't have shicks.
I was wearing a 30-year-old jacket and I had an old.
I quit my, you know, my part-time grocery job and just I had to live off my writing income.
And then Amazon banned my best-selling books within the next six months.
So I couldn't pay rent anywhere.
So I sort of used my money for train tickets.
And I stay with readers and guys that I coach or used to coach in boxing and sick fighting.
And I kind of travel around the country.
I'm in Utah right now, mostly picking rose hips and elderberries and shoveling manure and garden boxes for the guys they was here.
Testament to your work that you have enough fans.
And well, it's easy to have fans, right?
But fans who are willing to help you out and put you up, I think, you know, says a lot about what you've done in real life in terms of coaching people and helping them out.
And then, of course, writing about all of your crazy adventures.
Before we get too far here, James, we ask all first-time guests this same series of questions.
What is your ethnicity, your religion, and your fatherhood status, please, sir?
Okay.
I'm white trash.
I'm a heathen.
And in the classical sense, the people of the Heather, the outsider.
And I am separated for the past 20 years.
I never spent any effort trying to divorce the woman who fired me, me out and put me out on the streets.
But it was the nicest thing she ever did for me other than bear me a son.
In other words, you're still a married man.
Yeah.
Yeah, I haven't seen her in five or six years and never going to see her again.
But, you know, after she kicked me out, I gave her money every week, you know, the amount of money she asked for.
And, you know, we made sure that our sons didn't suffer, our grandchildren didn't suffer from it.
You know, so I have a son who's a 45-year-old refrigeration mechanic.
And he has two sons and a daughter.
My youngest grandson was just born in July.
And I have a younger son who is also married.
And they both married their high school sweethearts.
I believe they actually both married their first girlfriend, girls that they met when they were 16.
Wonderful.
Congratulations, Grandpa.
And are you still on good terms with your sons?
You're at least still in touch with them?
Yes.
I saw them.
My younger brother got married.
He's just 11 months younger than me.
He got married at the end of July, and I was his best man.
So we all got together then.
We try to have an annual get-together.
I spend about three months a year on the East Coast so I can visit with my family.
Good stuff, James.
And, you know, I put out a solicitation for questions when it was just today that we set on you coming on.
And one of the listeners says, oh, you've got to ask him about his childhood and or his mom and dad.
I don't know if you've spoken about that before, but you're certainly from the school of hard knocks in Baltimore.
But did you have a rough childhood too?
Or were things pretty typical there?
Well, my entire family began evacuating Baltimore City in 1968.
There was about 60 family members there.
In 2017, I was the last of those four families, Irish-American, Anglo-American, and German-American, to evacuate.
And I didn't grow up in Baltimore City.
I was a little baby for a couple of years in Baltimore City.
Then I lived in Baltimore County until I was 11 years old.
And I was beat up and tormented and tortured a lot by older kids, but they were all of my own kind.
And at 11, I became, I went through early puberty and became a violent psychopath.
So I went from a fat sissy to get picked on for his whole life to a violent psycho.
Then, from age 13 to 18, I lived in Washington, Pennsylvania, where my parents moved for my father's job.
And my last day in Baltimore County, I committed a violent crime in school and talked to the police officer, and the other guy didn't press charges before I got on the plane with my mother, was recovering from hysterectomy.
And then I left Washington, PA, when I was 18 after I tried to behead a young man who I caught beating up my younger brother.
And I failed to behead him and only destroyed his arm.
And he didn't want to press charges, and his father wanted to sue my father.
So at the time, you could avoid a lawsuit if you moved out of state.
So I moved back to Baltimore and spent the next 38 hours, 38 years in Baltimore City.
So I did a de-evolutionary climb back down the ladder that my parents called out of.
I went right back into that shithole as it got worse.
Reverse.
You were just trying to gentrify Baltimore.
Let's be honest.
You were on the lamb.
It didn't work out.
One man is not an island, nor can one man gentrify an entire city.
But real quick, James, what's your favorite memory, your kindest, fondest memory from childhood?
Don't think too hard about it.
Just the first thing that comes to mind.
My brother and I trying to make a plastic bathtub fly by blowing in the Maxwell House coffee cans and capping them and trying to use as propulsion method when we were six and five.
Nice.
Brothers hijinks.
And I was going to ask about this later, but you've written so extensively about crime in Baltimore, most of it black crime, of course, although you are a little bit difficult to pin down.
One would think that all those experiences there would have made you a white nationalist or a Nazi, but you've had lots of good experiences, I guess, with fighters and boxers too.
Why did you stay there for so damn long, despite it being so tough?
My family was from that part of Maryland for almost 400 years.
My Irish relatives were in this country longer than any African-American.
And I, after failing in life and having to go back into the city that my family had been driven from, I developed a real respect for my uncle Bill, who was a man who lived in Baltimore City till he died and he never got mugged.
He dressed in a suit until the day he died.
And he could walk down the worst back alleys in Waverly.
And even though some of his sons got beat up and his one son got knifed in the alley behind his house, as his sister-in-law, my grandmother Mary said, nobody ever tried to lay a hand on Bill.
So I tried to imitate Bill, and I was determined to defend myself and not be driven away.
And this had also become my writing material.
I could write an article at least once a week about somebody trying to attack me.
You know, so there was that.
Eventually, the clincher was all of the men that I coached left Baltimore and even chewed me out for staying there.
And I had readers who were inviting me to stay with them and saying, you need to leave Baltimore.
One day you're not going to write about the guys that tried to get you because they're going to get you.
And that last night, I felt like God was reiterating all of these Statements when he sent a salt and pepper team after me.
And then two giant that due to I, you know, I almost killed the first two guys.
The other two guys, I had zero chance of surviving that if they decided to go to full contact.
And they stopped two paces away when they figured out that I was definitely fighting.
But there was nothing I could have done to stop these guys.
They're going to roll right over me.
Two six foot five inch, 280 pound athletic 35 year old guys who looked like twins, had heads like bowling balls.
They were in the process of abducting a 95-year-old, beautiful little white girl and taking her white escalade from in front of Abner 7-Eleven in Middle River or Maryland.
And I was going to let them do it.
There was nothing I could do to stop them, but I had a torn hip rotator and I was getting fat.
I needed a cane to walk.
And they heard my heels scrape on the curb.
So she never saw them.
So the gig was up and they decided to come after me, which I can understand.
I mean, they could have probably got $25,000 for this bitch, you know.
So they'd have sold her down to Port Covington and she would have ended up getting pawned off the Arabs in Israel.
I mean, I even, when I go back to Baltimore, I still walk by a place where white girls are trafficked in from Eastern Europe and held prisoner by a Baltimore City police officer.
Okay, so I knew what this was going on.
I've talked to girls that have had almost had this happen to them, three of them.
But I'm no hero, you know, so I was actually mad at this chick for putting me in danger.
You know, I got over it because she gave me a great story and she helped deliver God's message that I was no longer physically up to defending myself.
I was also over that year, I was starting to get really bad adrenal dumps right after I would face down a group of guys that were coming after me.
And that was really shaking me up because if I would then get attacked right after that happened, I would be helpless.
Like I was bad enough dealing with these two gigantic guys because I had a bad adrenaline dump after I dealt with these two guys trying to get me in my neighborhood in the city.
But at least I had time to recover.
If this happened back to back, I'd just be a piece of meat.
So I knew my time was up.
I was getting too fat, too old, and I was the only target left out there.
All the black guys on the street had been hunted to extinction.
I was like the last piece of meat out there.
I'm glad you got out alive, James.
Better late than never.
Has your views on race gotten a little tougher over the years?
I just remember, you know, four or five years ago, you were sort of a little wishy-washy, maybe a little bit civic nationalist, but are you too old for that shit now and a little harder on blacks or Jews or any of that stuff?
I don't care about civics and I don't care about nationalism.
I have a friend of mine who writes comic books and I told him, I say, what?
He was upset about political problems.
I say, what?
Your next comic book is more important than the United States of America as far as I'm concerned.
Okay, so just go for it.
You know, forget about what's happening to this shithole country.
This country never did me any favors.
It basically deployed 2,400 Baltimore police officers to make sure I was disarmed and to threaten me and chase me and harass me 28 times so that the 250,000 Bantu subhumans were free to hunt me because I couldn't even carry a throwie knife.
Okay, I had to every night I had to look in the mirror for 38 years and decide: are the cops going to shake me down or are the brothers finally going to do a full-on three-man blitz and not care?
Okay, uh, so you know, so do I take my shotgun?
I've taken a shotgun before.
Do I take the AR-7 carbine with illegal pistol grip?
I did that before.
Do I take the Dato, the ninja sword?
Do I take the belly knife?
What do I take?
Do I just take a screwdriver, a hammer, razor blade?
Because I never wanted to get locked up and I never did.
My greatest fear was getting handcuffed and locked up, okay, more than getting killed by these savages, you know.
And I never got mad when the cops came after me for being white trash in a black neighborhood because it's a crime to be an unsuccessful white man and walk the streets of a place like Baltimore.
First person coming after you is a white cop, okay, in a car.
Sure.
15 times I've been threatened and attacked by white guys in pickup trucks in Baltimore City who just got done buying their cocaine or weed from black guys and wanted to beat the shit out of somebody to make up for the emasculating process of having to buy dope from a subhuman who's pointing a gun in your face.
Now, I never got mad at the cops.
I would just get deeply afraid.
I have an existential fear of the police.
I'm a coward where the police are concerned.
I never got afraid of the black guys, and I never got mad at them because I figured it was their job.
I mean, they all thought it was their job.
And with a 65 IQ, what you think?
That's just the only time I ever got mad when I got attacked was when there was a white guy involved.
Like that first pair of guys that tried to get me on December 11th.
There was an 18-year-old white kid who I knew from the neighborhood.
And I had bought him lunch once when he was 15.
He didn't recognize me.
I'd gotten fat.
I'd cut my hair and he was stoned.
And his partner was a 35-year-old black guy.
The black guy saved us all because I was going to kill these bastards.
They were only my size.
I had a hickory T-cane and a knife.
And I was pissed because I had a white guy coming after me.
I gated the black guy.
I figured I'm going to cave his head in when this guy gets two steps from me and then I'm going to stab him until dawn.
Okay.
I'm going to prison or I'm stabbing a cop and they're going to off me.
That's the way this is going to go down.
I can't run.
I'm fat and I got a torn hip rotator.
So when I looked at the black guy the first time, he got on his knees and prayed to me as he should.
Okay.
Because I was the master of 250,000 of these people for 38 years.
And this is how they treated me.
They always back down at the last minute.
One of them would figure out that that hand of mine that they couldn't see had something in it for them.
Okay.
So this guy's praying to me.
The white guy is still coming.
And for the first time in my life, I yelled at somebody who was in the process of attacking me.
I broke my own cardinal rule.
And then the black guy dove off of his knees and grabbed the white guy and pushed him back in the neighborhood, telling him, You're about to get us killed.
This man is serious.
We're going to die.
Okay.
Because he knew.
And so I would, there was another time that year that three white construction workers threatened to kill me, to beat me to death while I was standing nearly crippled in the rain at 4:45 a.m. next to the Dunkin' Donuts, where they just bought their coffee before work.
And I could hardly walk at the time and I just gotten off of work and I was waiting for the bus.
And these guys actually slowed down to see if I didn't even look at them.
I knew what happened.
I got mad.
I knew they were doing this.
They wanted to recreationally destroy me because they now had to buy drugs from the racial enemies and it humiliated them.
That's what had happened in that neighborhood.
So after the drug market in a mixed neighborhood gets taken over by the Bantu invaders, the young white men will start looking for old white men on the street to beat up recreationally to buoy you to blow up their ego to make them feel like they're still men.
So that's the only thing that ever got me mad is when white kids would act like scouts for the Mandingo Hunters.
And when these guys, you know, were going to kill me with their tool belt assembly just for the fun of it and then go to work.
You know, that really deeply disturbed me.
I'm still angry at those guys.
You know, was that recent or is this a long memory?
That was all 2017.
All those stuff happened in 2017, including Arsenio Hall and Eddie Murphy trying to take my umbrella.
They looked exactly like Arsinio Hall and Eddie Murphy.
And they, and in the end, when Arsinio Hall noticed that Eddie Murphy was coming off, coming across the street to strangle me, and he had already told me, you best bring me my umbrella or I'm come over there and I'm going to whoop that old ass.
And I was like, he could, right?
I was injured that whole year, but I had decided to stab him.
And I knew he didn't see my knife.
But Arsinio was in an angle and he could see the sharpened edge on the blackened blade that I was holding against my blue jeans.
And Arsinio pointed at my leg where I was standing on a streetlight and said, Yo, Santa Claus is serious as shit, yo.
And he looks at me and he says, My bad.
He does a reverse moonwalk up onto the curb and said, Merry Christmas.
Green was always my favorite color.
And this was in July during a thunderstorm.
So at least the Bantus will generally entertain you after they fail to do you in.
You know, so I kind of saw them as my entertainers as well.
Yeah, you know, so that was, I'm, I'm against whoever's going to attack me.
My personal fantasy is the next time I go to Baltimore to be attacked and crippled by four or five Bantus.
I rip the guts out of three of them.
And then when the cops come to clean up the mess, I reach out from underneath of the pile of dead Negroes, grab a cop, and stab him in the neck.
Okay.
My exit fantasy.
Okay.
So that's like mentally where I'm at when I'm in Baltimore.
I've seen it.
You've been a booking.
Yeah.
You're thinking of writing a book with the plot of this.
Well, it's all right.
He can have the daydreams that he wants.
Yeah.
I mean, you don't have to go to war to have PTSD.
James has American domestic PTSD.
Well, I was getting.
Yeah, I was getting it really bad.
It was bad for my health.
Probably contributed to my weight gain.
I've lost like 65 pounds since then.
And the last time I was in Baltimore was Thursday night, August 5th.
And I was attacked by one black man, then a pair of two black men, and then one Latino man.
And they all backed off at the last minute because we had a power outage.
We all knew the cops were going to be busy with down power lines.
So I was fully armed with a war club, four knives, and a coup battle.
And each time one of these guys or a group of these guys came after me, I turn around, I spread my hands, and I visibly let them know here I am.
It's on what's rock and roll.
And in all cases, after changing directions and coming after me or waiting for me outside of the liquor store, even after the Pakistani guy gave me a discount because he knew they were robbing me instead of him.
And he kept waiting for me outside of the liquor store.
In all cases, they decided they couldn't fight this little old man.
You know, so I really like Baltimore and Portland since the police have stood down because I'm now allowed to defend myself.
And humanity's gotten so soft that there's no longer any hard Negroes out there.
Sure.
James, you know, Street Smarts, we could do hours, we could do weeks of content on street smarts.
And that's, you know, one of your bellowics.
I love your appearances on myth and your commentary, but I do have one of the friends of the show said, I don't like LaFond.
I think he's going to get people hurt or killed by trying to be too tough in certain situations.
He's full of BS.
You know, full disclosure, a little bit of street smarts.
But first, is it safe to assume that for the average Joe who's not you, if he finds himself in a rough neighborhood or in a dangerous situation, the best decision is to get the hell out of there?
That manning up is sort of a last resort.
However, you want to be rated myself as incapable of defending myself any longer.
So I eventually ran.
I mean, I hit an age where, yeah, so yeah, those two twins, the two big guys, I couldn't stop them.
They wanted me dead.
I was dead.
So I wanted to continue writing.
So I had to leave.
So it's up to you.
If you feel like if you can't defend yourself against the threat, like I think hipster homesteading is ridiculous.
Those people get picked off a lot.
I've intentionally gone back to get as fit as I can.
And I even started fighting again just so that I could survive visiting my girlfriends in Baltimore and Portland.
Okay.
You know, so because when you get to my age, you can't be too picky about, you know, where your companionship's coming from.
But I'm not trying to encourage anybody to fight.
Even the best military people spend half their time trying to avoid fights when they're at war and only fight when it serves their immediate and long-term goals.
You mentioned hipster homesteading there, which I presume you mean sort of like crunchy lefties maybe moving to a suburb or an exurb and thinking that they're far enough down the highway.
But, you know, the thought occurs, why not?
I mean, if you had bailed on Baltimore years ago, you may have had a safer and happier life.
Why not advise people to move to white rural America and eke out some happiness and safety?
I mean, if I went, I was thinking about this.
Like we have a couple of audience questions for you.
One of them is about urban recon.
I mean, if I did recon around here, I'd find some cows and deer and maybe hear an owl.
But I'm guessing that you don't like that advice.
But have at it.
Oh, well, I'm in the Rocky Mountains right now.
I spend four months a year in extreme rural settings.
And it's very nice.
I still have to worry about brown predators in the form of bears.
But other than that, everything else changes.
Going to a rural area is the best thing.
I really object to thinking you're going to be safe in a suburban area, which is what most people choose to do.
I'm not somebody who sought out safety for myself.
I did move my family in 2000.
In the year 2000, I moved my family out of Baltimore City because I was the only one that could leave the house.
My wife couldn't leave the house and she stayed inside for a year after getting mugged a couple times by black women.
And then when I finally took us out to eat at a local at the last place that still had a tablecloth dining set up in our neighborhood, two young Bantu warriors threatening to shoot me because she didn't have a cigarette for them.
So I'm trying to shove her fat ass out of the way so I can stab this dude who's trying to shoot me while his buddy thinks I have a gun and he's not letting him draw his gun.
So when we got home from that, she said, I'm not coming out of this house until the moving van shows up.
You're getting us out of this neighborhood.
So I had to leave the house vacant and let the bank have it back and leave the three mortgage payments that I didn't make to move to a rental in the county.
Okay.
So I did that for my family.
We had my oldest son, we already had to take him out of school and send him to Harford County because he couldn't survive in a prison system that was a Baltimore City school system.
And we went to the part of the county that I could afford a rental in.
And then my youngest son got a better education than my older son and is making more money.
I had to move back into the city for work and for a place that I could afford to rent when I was still supporting my family who I was estranged from because my wife kicked me out almost as soon as I got them to the county.
You know, so that I think particularly, you cannot raise a family with children in an American city.
Unless you're going to do like Emeryville, California, where they live, these faggots live in these gated condos.
I've been through there when I was walking from this dive hotel to the train station.
So the best thing to do is to go to a rural part of the country.
But I can tell you from living with rural people that are moving to the rural areas are liberal, lefty people who are changing the laws and raising the tax base.
And now the people I'm living with here, their children and grandchildren are not going to be able to live in their ancestral valley because millionaires and billionaires are moving in here.
That's right.
They're eliminating the food production and they're coming here to get away from the terrible cities that they made with their policies.
Yep.
You mentioned, of course, yeah, it's the wrong kind of white flight there.
And you mentioned the food policy.
Before we get too far down this interview, I did want to ask that this is a big one, and it's the wither America question.
You've provided a lot of great commentary from all of your travels.
Obviously, we're living in decline.
A lot of guys think the big collapse is coming or we're living in collapse.
It's a slow process.
How do you see America going over the next 10, 20 years?
Is this all going to collapse into civil war and balkanization separation, or is this going to be just like Africa bantus everywhere and whites having to duke it out for their own lives?
Well, we've been in an information civil war.
I think Chittam in his American Civil War II, which he posit in 1992, he predicted for 2020.
I think he was right.
I think it was our Civil War.
And I think we took the knee, generally speaking, most people did take the knee during that Civil War.
And I think it was largely an information war.
It depends on where the food production and the climate goes.
When a country's in decline, it's generally good for the elite, and it's generally good for losers and scumbags like me who have failed.
It tends to be bad for people that are in the middle that aren't part of whatever type of henchman class the elite have decided to employ.
You know, I think you're going to want to work in private security if you're a white man.
That's pretty much where you're going to be tolerated by the elite.
You know, either that or behind the scenes, you know, obviously who the elite want for their frontmen is not white males, at least not heterosexual breeding white males, anyhow.
You know, but I think it's, it'll be different for different people.
Like I said, it's actually been good for me.
I, you know, I still can't afford to stay in one place with the amount of money I make, but I've been able to live as a postmodern hobo.
That's probably better than I deserve, probably according to some of your listeners, which I don't mind that.
People in my family and most of the people I work with all think I'm insane.
I mean, people who know me just think I'm, you know, eccentric.
Those are the nice ones.
Those are the people who let me live with them.
I mean, half the guys I stay with, I earn my room and board by getting punched in the face by them.
You know, I mean, I stay with guys who are half my age who I box with.
You know, so it's not like a really sustainable lifestyle.
I'm supposed to have my last fight at age 60 on May 20th.
All right.
Is that something that we can watch or tune into?
Do you know?
It'll eventually end up being up on this guy's website.
He's a Christian soldier guy that used to be, he used to run something called Lancaster Agonistics.
I worked the corner for some of his MMA fights, and he has this annual thing he does called the man weekend.
You can find stuff about it on the site.
And there's even videos of it.
I can't watch.
I don't have a browser to come watch videos, you know.
But I think I'll be doing my last man weekend this coming year and hopefully lose a couple of fights to some fine young men who see out of me.
Okay.
Good for you.
James, I was reading your book list and I was very interested in the books that you wrote about boxing.
Is there any one I should start with?
I did a series of three books on the history of ancient boxing.
Yes.
Available on my website.
Wen's going to is help me do the fourth book, and they're going to be published in an omnibus coffee table illustrated volume probably in about 10 months.
It's called The Broken Dance.
The first boxers, The Gods of Boxing, All Power Fighting.
And I'm in the process of finishing up the boxer thread, which I couldn't finish until I got a piece of ancient literature, which I could not find in English translations when I did the work 20 years ago.
Boxing manual.
I did, I wrote Jason Van Beldhusen's boxing manual.
I ghost wrote it.
He's a guy who has precisionstriking.com.
He's an excellent online boxing coach.
He was a better amateur fighter than me.
And he paid me to write his book.
I recently wrote solo boxing for my Jamaican boxer who goes by the name of Incognigro.
And that is available through Amazon, as is the punishing art.
And I wrote a series of how to train and fight books that cover boxing, MMA, self-defense, stick fighting, and blade use.
Winter of a Fighting Life is one.
Being a Bad Man in a Worse World is another.
One that is the picture of the legs of an opponent in one of my stick fights.
And he won that fight, by the way.
He gave me a concussion, broke my fencing mask, and froze my shoulder up.
All I did was bruise his legs and rip his shirt.
My stick fighting manual, I'm a much higher level stick fighting and knife fighting coach than I'm a boxing coach.
I've actually had more stick and knife fights than any person living.
And I won most of them.
I won over 400, but I want about half the 240 machete duels, dull machetes, not short, but you still get cut with them.
And I only lost about 160 of those 670 stick fights.
But boxing, I only won seven out of like 24 boxing matches I've had.
And I'm fixing to lose my last two boxing matches.
But I'm a good boxing coach because I had to learn how to do things because I wasn't naturally suited for the sport.
So I learned all the biomechanics.
The On Combat and the Combat Space.
Okay.
On Combat, I don't think is published yet, but the Combat Space is available.
And that is one of those books that covers everything.
And the stick fighting manual is titled Twerps, Goons, and Meat Shields, because stick fighting is also body fighting.
I bet that it sucks to be bad at knife fighting.
I think it doesn't suck for long.
Well, I've enjoyed boxing since I was about, oh, I don't know.
I got into it maybe when I was about maybe 28 years old or so.
I bought a 60-pound heavy bag off of a guy, kind of like a garage sale thing.
And I hung that up.
I really fell in love with it with the sport.
And I proceeded to get a speed bag, couple different speed bags, and then I got a 100-pound bag.
And so it's something that I've enjoyed as a part of my exercise routine since about 1994.
And so I'm interested in it and especially interested in some tips from somebody different.
A guy taught me a little bit how to box back then, and I got a couple of videos that I watched many years ago.
But I'm interested in it.
And if I could piggyback off that, yeah, if I could piggyback, Sam, one of our questions for James, sort of in the vein of coaching and cultivating aggression, listener says that I need to get my kids more aggressive in their respective sports.
My daughter's timid on the soccer field.
My son is timid on the wrestling mat.
They're the kindest, most gentle, wonderful kids without a vicious bone in their body.
So they're talented, they're athletic, but they don't have a killer instinct.
Do you ever deal with a boxer like that?
And I don't know if you've ever taught kids basic stuff like that, but how would you answer that for fathers or moms who want to toughen up their kids a little bit?
Box, I've had to deal with all three sports with timid fighters.
Two.
Two of them were very crucial.
I got a guy that actually built my website for me who had never done anything athletically, was scared of his own shadow, tried stick fighting a couple different times over a couple years.
I coached him through his high school MMA program, and he quit twice.
Then he came and videoed the rest of us knuckleheads putting on a gladiatorial combat for a guy's birthday party in rural Maryland, where we beat the shit out of each other while people bet on us against a birthday guy.
Well, he eventually became the third most dangerous stick fighter on the East Coast.
It took him about 10 years, and he was a flat-out nerd.
I mean, he, you know, he was not a physical guy.
You can see pictures of him when he was in his prime on my website.
If you click on the modern agonistics tag in the contents box, you'll find videos where we train and have some fighting on there.
And there's one from 2015 or 16 where him and I are both hitting the heavy bag with sticks.
And you can see how focused and aggressive this guy was.
This guy was once a guy that squealed when you hit him.
Okay.
And then he became.
There's hope for Rolo after all.
Then he became, this dude became a predator.
And now, the best case was a mixed race guy named Erik was a very muscular guy that was being trained by Arturo Gabriel, a Puerto Rican psychopath from Chicago, who was a really high-level martial artist in six arts, got fired from about 20 different bouncing jobs for excessive force.
He's a guy on the cover of my knife book, The Logic of Steel.
I hear Gabriel, while I'm in the back of the gym hitting the bag, I hear Gabriel yelling at Erik during their Wing Chung Chinese boxing lessons.
And then he says, That's it.
I'm giving you to James.
And then I turn around, and this little Puerto Rican guy is holding hands with this guy that's built like mighty Joe Young, who is so timid, he won't hit anybody.
He's not so much hard, afraid of getting hit.
He could take a beating, but he's afraid of hurting people in his bones.
A lot of people have this trouble.
It basically means to read and he looks at us and he says, Ari, this is James.
James, this is Ariqu.
He belongs.
And then he looks back at Arique and he says, Arik, you belong to James now.
And he walks away, actually gave up his coaching money because I coached for free.
I didn't charge people.
And Erik looks at me and he says, Have I just been sold to a white guy by a Puerto Rican guy?
Actually, he gave me to you.
They were not exchanging money.
You weren't even worth anything.
And he's like, Yeah, I'm okay with that.
Can you show me how to fight?
I said, Yes.
And in six months, you'll be mean too.
So, and he became, he's probably the most dangerous blade fighter we have in the whole network.
You know, so yes.
And this guy sells toys.
He got his dream job.
He was a nerd for life.
This guy is so much whiter than me, it's not even funny.
People always, in fact, we had him and another black guy and this skinhead dude helped me coach a group of guys that called themselves Nazis.
Okay.
I figured I might as well bring the natural enemies of these guys that want to be able to defend themselves, like in political street fights.
And we did.
And then after training, the two black guys were kind of, you know, they said, I think two of those guys are going to be able to fight, but I don't know about the other five.
You know, I said, well, don't worry about it.
It's not your problem.
You know, you help them out.
And Erik pulls up the Erik pulls up an article I had just posted that day on, Are You Really a Black Man?
And it was a test.
Okay.
And him and Jeremy only passed the test by one point.
And the skinhead guy and I like got a perfect score.
So they're like, yeah, you guys are like twice as black as as far as the racial stereotypes go.
It was kind of like a joke thing, you know.
But so I've had to deal with very gentrified, college-educated, nerdy, you know, high caste, you know, basically mulattos that have had a real hard time hurting people.
Like they're not like, you know, like the Jamaican dude, no problem.
He'll break your, he'll break your ribs in a minute.
Okay.
So how'd you drag it out of them, the warrior ethos?
Well, Charles, I beat the piss out of him for seven years.
Literally, I just, I beat him up, but I didn't break him.
You know, I gauged a psychological breaking point.
I didn't break any bones.
Okay.
And there's a way that I developed through dealing with him and this other fellow, Erik, and a couple other people that I can now do it from the beginning.
At the time, I was learning how to coach.
I was still competing.
I, you know, 20 years ago, I coached by sparring with you full contact.
That's not a good way to coach.
So in order to get a berth in a martial arts school, so that my guys had a place to train in the winter, I had to coach their people for free.
Well, I had to learn how to coach people that weren't naturally aggressive instead of the cavemen I was dealing with.
So what I did is I basically used these two guys as experiments on how to psychologically condition somebody without injuring them or psychologically breaking them and then and then building them up.
So I have a very smooth system for doing it now.
There's five guys in Portland that I actually train when I go there.
And it's very easy for me to do.
So it's basically proximity relaxation training.
I would put a fencing mask on you.
Okay.
And I would say, I'm just going to touch you.
I'm not going to hurt you.
Okay.
I'm not trying to touch you.
I want you to relax.
And I want you to cup your hand and put it on my elbow or my shoulder, okay, or the top of my head.
And then I want you to kind of step drag away when you do that.
And when I touch you, don't freak out.
Don't tense up.
Don't get strong.
When I'm coming in on you to try to like, I'll try to put my hand on hip or your shoulder or behind your knee or behind your neck.
When I try to do this, I'll say, when you put your hand on me, don't get strong and don't try to resist.
Try to use me as a reference point to glide away.
And this is a basic relaxation drill that I'll do with somebody usually for about 20 hours before they get to the point where they could handle any type of contact without having a big blockage in their learning process.
As soon as somebody starts to get really tense or upset, they stop learning biomechanically.
So it's a real, it's a real gradual process.
I never hurt people that I coach.
I generally get hurt because they'll get freaked out and they'll whack me.
Okay.
When I put my hand up one time to just show a kid something and he just like teed off on it with a stick and broke it.
And we continued with the drill.
I've had my nose bloodied by people who I stopped the boxing drill with them.
I would just, yeah, I would just supplement for the parents out there too, as the loving parent of two also nice, kind, good kids who, for one reason or another, do have a little bit of a killer instinct out there on the field, not on the wrestling mat.
And my natural instinct when I played sports, especially as I got older after puberty, was that this is combat.
They are the enemy and they want to gloat and celebrate our defeat.
And my job is to be the gloater and the celebrator.
And with little kids, I don't know, you may have to work that in gradually and slowly, but drive home the reality that this is a competition.
You do not want to lose.
You do not want to be ashamed.
You want that glory at the end of the match or the game and not the other team.
And I think that will probably hopefully stir some ancient inclinations in your kids.
As far as getting over the timidity, if you can get them to be relaxed in front of somebody that's just trying to touch them, which could be you, you could do these touch drills, which are basically entry drills for wrestling and not that different from some things that guys will do on the line in football.
You can work these kind of drills with your kids, like somebody would play with their dog.
Okay.
And in stick fighting, we call them checking drills.
Okay.
In boxing, in boxing, we call them clinch and turn drills or measuring drills.
And it was like Muhammad Ali's whole career was basically doing these drills with smaller, slower guys, just putting the palm on them and, you know, and using them as a measuring reference.
So you could just use that relaxation when you're in proximity to somebody that's like in your personal space.
Once they start to get relaxed with that, their learning curve is going to go way up.
And then they can start to apply aggressive solutions because they'll get sick of being on a defensive.
Sure.
It's harder to coach smart people too.
So it is a sign that your friend has smart kids that they're kind of timid because I'm sure he does that are easy to coach initially tend to be aggressive.
Hey, James, I want to change gears here a little bit from the pugilism to the love connections.
And obviously, you're not going to be a marriage coach for our guys on this show, but you are a dashing Dan and you've had plenty of conquests, I'm sure.
And in all seriousness, you know, our mission, our mission objective here primarily is to help guys find good women, get married, and have big, healthy white families.
A little bit of not game theory, but things that have worked with you.
We don't want guys just going out there and scoring tail, but that's kind of the first hurdle to overcome for most of them.
A little bit of wisdom from your years with the ladies, if you could.
I'm a weird case with this.
I've only asked a lady out one time in my entire life, and she had already asked me out.
Okay.
I have lady friends.
I have two on the West Coast and two on the East Coast.
I got nobody in the middle of the country currently.
Okay.
They all approached me.
I didn't approach them.
You know, so I'm not somebody that really has any skills with going out and acquiring females.
Well, how about how do you carry yourself and have women notice you or women ask you?
Why do you think?
That's pretty easy.
And I've had women explain that to me.
When I was younger, I was always involved with older women.
My wife was 10 years older than me.
I've only had relationships with 15 women in my life.
I only have long-term relationships.
I only had one relationship that was short-term and I didn't like it, largely because it was short-term.
So I was never a guy that was just into scoring.
And I generally try to avoid having sex with women, particularly after they start pursuing me.
I found that I was approached generally.
Almost all the women that approached me were women who met me in the workplace.
I was always the most hated man in the building by the other workers because I had the highest work rate.
I was also always resented by the management staff because they knew that I knew more than they did.
And I was staying in the ranks for decades.
And they always felt and they always hated me because they felt like I could step up and do their job.
And eventually I did.
I went from stock clerk all the way up to general manager and won hire.
And then, of course, women were all constantly pursuing me because I was the guy making the most money in the building.
The easiest way to have women come after you is to be the guy making the most money in the building.
And all I did was fend these women off.
It was ridiculous.
It became a sport.
I became an expert at keeping women from acquiring me because at that point, it could have ruined me because I cannot date the staff.
And half of these women worked for me.
Now, I can tell you, women select men based on how they see them interact, not just with women, but with other men.
Okay.
They are really looking for a man that has high social intelligence interacting with other men.
That's number one.
They also, as far as the observations of you interacting with women, they want a man that's going to have a high social intelligence there and be able to predict what they want.
One of my big advantages here that I had was I was trained basically by a Spartan matriarch.
I was a 17-year-old virgin when a 48-year-old woman approached me about instructing me in the art of satisfying her.
Okay.
And she said, What?
She said, When you get a girlfriend, this is over.
I'm not going to ruin your life.
She said, Right now, I need what you can provide, and you could probably use some instruction because you don't even know what I'm talking about.
And this permitted me to, I mean, she explained everything.
She explained everything to me.
Was she good looking, James?
Was she decent?
Yeah, she was an eight.
She was a tall redhead.
She was eight.
She was very nice looking.
So, so her pickup line was: How many push-ups did you do before you came over?
And I remember, so it's 56.
That's the last exercise I did my workout.
And she said, How many could you do if you had help?
Okay, so that was it.
But, but, anyhow, so this was actually a social institution in ancient Sparta, and it was to a large degree a social institution amongst working-class men in this country up until the 1960s.
Okay, where arrangements be made with arrangements for young man.
So, so he would at least know what to do with his virgin wife because she wouldn't know what to do.
You know, so uh, you know, that so I think uh I can Mrs. Bobinson was uh largely responsible for me being successful, learning how to interact with women from a position of understanding and strength.
Women despise men that work that operate from a position of weakness, but they also despise the man that uh operates brutally or brutishly or crudely from a position of physical strength because they got good instincts.
They know that's not going to get it in the social hierarchy.
Sure thing guy that's just knocking heads and that's where you're going.
Well, even in football, you don't get that far, James.
What are you proudest of in your long and traveled life?
Oh, the only thing that comes to mind is uh standing in front of the Pakistani liquor store and offering to fight the two black guys that were waiting there to rob me on August 5th, Thursday.
I don't think I'm proud of anything else personally, as far as raising my sons.
I got them both through school, got the oldest one through college.
I did my job, but I don't think that counts for pride.
That's just something I have to do.
You know, that's just my patrimony.
That's a job, that's something to do.
But yeah, probably the only thing I'm proud of is standing up to younger, more numerous subhuman males combat.
You know, four years ago, I never thought I was going to be able to do that again.
And how about looking back, the flip side of the coin?
Uh, biggest regret if you could go back and change something.
Oh, the biggest regret.
Well, there's a ton of those.
Probably, probably that I started writing is probably my biggest regret.
Did not see that coming.
Yeah.
Yeah, because it just became a gerbil wheel.
It's I'm a compulsive, obsessed, driven, tormented monkey on my back wraith that's just like this undead thing that's trying to download its experiences and observations.
You know, so I would have there's a young lady I go and see twice a year.
And my hope every time I'm taking the train to see her is that I die of a massive heart attack.
You know, I mean, so that's like I actually, there's a young dude that I coached in the 90s.
And this guy, I used him as the basis for the super stud action hero in some of my science fiction novels.
If I could be Dante for two hours rather than be me for like the past 38 years, I'd be Dante in two hours and check out.
It would be a much more satisfying life than being, you know, what I am.
The only reason why I can fight of any note is because men no longer fight.
If we lived in a world where men fought, you know, I wouldn't be anywhere.
I'd be taping hands or sleeping fours in a dream somewhere, never even being a has-been.
I'd be a never was, you know, because I'm in the 40th percentile as far as athletic ability goes.
And that's a white bill for the audience that, you know, in a feminized world, and even the blacks and all the rest of them are getting feminized and turning into homos with tight jeans.
You don't have to be Arl Schwarzenegger or whatever fighter insert here.
You just need to, yeah, the bar is lower for manliness and strength.
I got two hernias.
I don't have any medical.
Can't get them operated on.
I can't even lift 60 pounds.
To lift my rucksack is a major production.
If I ever load it, I could have a full rupture and just be dead because I'm not going to let these medical ghouls get a hold of me.
Both my rotator cuffs have been torn since I was 16.
Okay.
I was immensely strong as a young teenager for my weight, but I had two severe back injuries in one of my early 20s and one of my early 30s.
You know, so clinically, I'm a weakling.
I can't piss that past that can you lift 50 pounds test.
Okay.
Gotcha.
You know, but that doesn't mean you can't be an effective combatant.
Right.
I wouldn't have been an effective combatant without a weapon in an earlier age, you know, when men were men.
But, you know, so again, it's a degenerate time like this actually permits me to LARP at the end of life as a man.
So I'm not going to play.
One of my favorite aspects of your appearance on the fatherland so long back was how you sized up each of the panelists.
Now, I'm not going to ask you to do that.
You already sized me up, and I forget what you said, bonk me on the top of the head or something like that.
But Rolo is on camera, and I'll give you a little inside scoop, James.
Rolo's in very good shape.
He's cut, but he's not a good runner.
I don't think he's got endurance.
So you see Rollo on the street coming up to Robbie for your change.
How are you approaching him?
Problem glasses and all.
Okay.
He's got wide shoulders.
Okay.
His eyes are pretty close together.
So if I'm a tall dude, or yeah, yeah.
So you got a pretty big head, but your eyes are kind of close together.
So your head's not that thick.
Not like Borzoi.
Borzoi's got like a mortar mallet Mexican head.
Okay.
I thought he was half Mongolian.
Many do.
Many do.
Yeah.
Okay.
But our Rolo guy here has a well-developed neck and he's got strong shoulders, but he's got a giraffe neck.
A jiu-jitsu guy would salivate looking at his neck.
Okay.
So I'm stabbing him in the neck with whatever pencil, coupon.
There you go.
There you go.
We're turtlenecks, Rolo.
I look good in a turtleneck.
This other guy here has got a more rounded out head.
And if he's short, that's going to work really well for like deflecting skinny bantu punches winged from one high and bouncing from the angle.
I'm just a hair under six foot.
Okay.
Well, well, that's not good.
You're a decent size.
Okay.
Your shoulders are slow.
So it doesn't look like you got problems with punching mechanics.
Everybody's sitting up straight now.
Yeah.
The big guy over here, he's got a little bit of tension in his traps.
Okay.
Looks more like he's got like push-bull muscles.
So it probably takes some time to get him relaxed punching.
Okay.
Coach looks like he's got kind of a football player body.
And his shoulders are sloped.
So that looks good for teaching punching.
And he's probably a hooker.
He doesn't look like he has long arms.
I don't see his whole body, but the way he's the other kind of hooker.
This guy here in there.
Let me extend my right arm really high.
There you go.
He can gauge.
Well, they're not sure.
They're not sure.
Okay.
Oh, man.
James, if you ever wander your way through West Virginia or Sam's Hood or Rolo's Hood, please, please hit us up for sure.
We'd be honored to have you.
And are you doing okay?
I mean, be honest here.
Do you need help from the audience?
Obviously, we're going to post your books.
And that's one more question.
I don't want to monopolize your time here.
But one, plug whatever you want.
But more seriously, if you had to recommend one of your books for people to get started with your expansive library, which one would it be?
Well, fiction would be Reverend Chandler.
Okay.
Okay.
Combat that would be Winter of a Fighting Life.
Okay.
Because it's more about the experience.
You can't learn how to fight out of a book.
And that's a very slim book.
As far as history goes, it had to be Cracker Boy, 700 pages of white trash history.
Okay.
All right.
Basically, white on white American crime, Anglo-American crime.
As far as like all the survival stuff, probably thriving in bad places was essentially a combination awareness, environmental assessment, and how to start learning how to defend yourself manual that I wrote for the single travel dude website.
Okay, so that would probably be the most useful of like those 60 or so harm city urban blight, how to survive the zoo overrun of your hometown kind of books that I wrote.
Sure.
We'll put links to all those in the show notes.
His website is jameslafon.com.
He is a living legend.
James, don't be so down.
I can hear that you're, you know, you got a little bit of melancholy to you, which we all do.
This society in this time does do that.
Well, I'm very lucky.
Okay, so I can tell you, I can be honest about my income.
We had when I was making $9,000 a year working a part-time night job, generating all this anti-mugging material, I was making $600 to $1,000 a year writing.
Okay.
That immediately went up to $2,400 a year.
Okay.
When all I did was write full-time.
Okay.
Then it got cut when my best-selling books got banned.
So I went down like below $2,000 a year.
Okay.
But then after I became a hobo, my income doubled a couple of years in a row.
Okay.
So I now gross about $10,000 a year.
I proudly write a check to the federal government that somebody is getting a Kevoir helmet or an M4 on my phone.
Crane.
Right.
I send about 500 bucks a year to the feds.
Okay.
You know, and so I make enough money for train tickets, the occasional hotel room when I don't have any place to stay.
Some of the people I stay with are not in good financial shape.
So when I'm there, I'll buy the groceries.
Some of the people I stay with are doing well.
Okay.
And they won't let me spend any money when I'm there.
So it bounces out.
You know, when I'm back east for three months, half of my annual income just went out the window because I had to live on my feet.
I'm changing locations every two days.
I got family to take care of.
I got grandkids that I want to give money to.
And this, you know, I got to give my daughter-in-law money for having a grandson.
I put a price tag on that.
It was $1,000 for a grandson, $500 for a granddaughter.
When my granddaughter came, she was pissed.
But when the second grandson came this year, she got over it when I came through with a $1,000 check again.
So then when I'm in Utah and I'm in Washington, these people don't even let me spend money.
Your money is no good here.
I have a couple of older girlfriends who I've known to one lady for 30 years.
I've been dating her for 30 years.
And I've got a beautiful young lady girlfriend who I met by accident a couple of years ago.
And hell, I couldn't have gotten a girl that good looking when I was her age.
And, you know, she's like 25 years younger than I am.
So like I said, if I, you know, if I curve the day after I see her again, then I had a good life.
It's better than the guy I stay with in Washington always tells me his favorite thing he uses for me is better than you deserve.
Sure.
So so yeah, so I have it better than I deserve.
I have not tried to succeed in this society.
And I should be living in a cardboard box coffee.
My mom's out, but you know, not yet, my friend.
I have a doctor that writes prescriptions for me.
And, you know, nice people give me a place to stay.
And you got, you only got, yeah, this last fight to go.
So whatever you do, don't die in that ring and live to fight figuratively.
Another day, James.
Yeah.
Love to see it.
Yeah.
I'm picking a fight with the meanest pricks in the lot.
Don't take it easy on me.
All right.
You know, so which just means it'll be over with quicker and less chance of me having a heart attack.
Going out on a high note.
I'm totally springing this on you, James.
We're going to the break.
We'll let you go.
Thank you so much for coming on.
JamesLaFond.com.
Is there a favorite song of yours that you might want to take us out to the break?
You can tell me after if you want.
We can plug it in.
I don't really listen to music.
No surprise.
Without music.
I can't run a 5K without tunes blasting in my ear.
All right.
That's fine.
I'm going to go with my, it's a good segue to our second half here.
We'll make it a short second half.
We did go long.
Thank you, James.
Thanks for having me on, guys.
You bet.
JamesLafond.com for the break.
We lost Loretta Lynn this week, a classic of country music.
She was a good one, not just a great musician, but she stayed married throughout that wild and crazy musical career.
She had, I think, six kids or maybe four.
I don't know.
She was true to herself.
Her people in Appalachian original, born Kentucky, died Tennessee.
And I couldn't not go to this one, which is I was doing woodwork out in the woods with the pickup truck, clearing just brush and stuff for a future project, actually, a treehouse with my wife.
And I couldn't help but put on don't come home a drinking or don't come home for loving when you've been drinking.
I didn't write down the name of the song, but you get the idea, audience.
Hail James LaFond.
Buy his books, and we'll be right back.
Thank you for the writer.
Mm-hmm.
And don't come home a drinking with a lovin' on your mind.
No, don't come home a drink with a lovin' on your mind.
Just stay out there on the town and see what you can find.
Cause if you want that kind of love, well, you don't need none of mine.
So don't come home a drinking with loving on your mind.
You never take me anywhere because you're always gone.
And many and I've laid awake and cried here all along.
Then you come in a kissing on me.
It happens every time.
No, don't come home a drinking with a lovin' on your mind.
No, don't come home with drinking with a lovin' on your mind.
Just stay out there on the town and see what you can find.
Cause if you want that kind of love, well, you don't need none of mine.
So don't come home a drinker with a lovin' on your mind.
No, don't come home a drinker with a lovin' on your mind.
Hey, and welcome back to Full House episode 142, second half.
We won't go a full hour.
Maybe we will in the second half.
We'll see how we go.
We're flying casual here.
Huge thanks to James LaFond.
Really is a living legend.
What a fascinating struggle his life has been, full of glory and regret, which I think you heard there in the first half.
A reminder, he's at jameslafond.com.
Just do it.
Go and buy a book from James.
Shop from the many, many offerings.
Help him out.
And who knows?
You may just enjoy it.
And who knows, you may even change your life with some aspect of fighting or prepping or looking at the ancient world or the modern world.
Also, I sincerely hope you enjoyed that track from Loretta Lynn.
I'll be honest, I knew her name because John Darbysher, I used to listen to Radio Derb before I was fully WN.
And he used to make plays on words between Loretta Lynch, who was Obama's late stage attorney general, and Loretta Lynn.
So once I got around to listening to her after she had passed, and I'm telling you, get out in the woods and listen to some of that old country.
And if you close your eyes, or as long as you don't have like a Bluetooth speaker or a fancy truck around you, you couldn't tell the difference whether it's the 50s or the 60s or this awful era that we live in.
She's like, I don't know, the George Jones of female country singing.
That voice is that good.
No new white life this week.
Shame on all of you.
Deeply disappointed.
One more week of New White Life and the show's over.
So get cracking.
Hop to it.
I did want to plug, though.
I got a book in the mailbox the other day from the white people's press, who we have mentioned here before.
And it was a beautiful, brief, illustrated.
Again, I'm astounded by the quality of their stuff.
And this is this is not paid shilling.
This is totally sincere.
If somebody sent me something that was crap, I wouldn't mention it on the show, but it's the story of our people.
It's a children's book with beautiful illustrations all about vaguely white history and teaching our kids to be proud of our glorious history with, of all things, illustrations from a Russian artist from back in the 20s, 30s that are really spectacular.
And the narrative is spot on.
I would guess that it's appropriate for kids aged six to 10.
Too young, they won't get it.
Too old, they'll think it's a little bit basic, but it's perfect for those kids coming into their own and learning about the world.
I read it to our youngest, who was a little too young, but he loved it.
And he wanted me to read it to him again because he liked the pictures.
Junior was a little too old.
Dad, I know to be proud already.
Thanks very much.
And then daughter's in the sweet spot too.
So check it out, The Story of Our People from WhitePeoplePress.com.
We have a loose, loosey-goosey second half here because all of my creative energies were consumed with trying to think of the best questions possible to ask James LaFond and keep him on track.
He can go on stem winders with the best of them.
So I hate to inform you, dear listener, but we are turning the mic over to Rolo for the essential topic of the man cold.
And I actually jest there.
Rolo was death.
I heard him coughing in between there before he hit the mute button.
Yeah, that's just a dramatic effect, Sam.
He's not actually sick.
But, you know, I've gone on at length.
Yeah, I've gone on at length about the man cold before and how brutal they are.
But go ahead, Rolo, lay it out to us.
What happened?
How are you?
And what is this epiphany that you had?
Yeah, so last Thursday's show, I started coughing.
I was like, oh, I don't feel that great.
And, you know, I just need to just need to rest.
And I woke up the next day feeling awful.
And I couldn't wait like 12 hours so I could just sleep for the next 16 hours.
But I had hands down the worst night of my entire life.
I took a Theraflu with some kind of mild sedative in it because that usually helps.
And it didn't help me sleep.
I went to sleep for about three hours and then I woke up and I was unable to go back to sleep.
And I was just in achy pain and freezing cold from a fever chills.
And it was just, it was terrible.
It was awful.
Yeah.
Luckily, the next few nights were a little better, but my fever just kept going up and up and up.
And I had to take some kind of either acetaminophen or ibuprofen to bring fever down.
But I was worried.
It's like, every time I get sick, I'm like, all right, this is the one.
This is how I'm going to die.
I'm going to die so anticlimactically, sadly.
And now I'm mostly okay.
I'm just coughing.
I feel fine, but I tried to do some manual labor today and about an hour of like the softest manual labor possible.
I was just ready to pass out.
And I was like, okay, I am not out of the woods yet.
But I was thinking when I was a kid, I remember like getting sick was like kind of bittersweet almost.
Like, ah, you know, I don't feel so great, but I get to stay home from school.
Like now as an adult, I'm like, oh, good, I'm sick.
Like my year is ruined.
Yeah, I used to watch reruns of Hogan's Heroes and Gilligan's Island and the fall guy.
Not F troop.
The Fall Guy is one of the best theme songs.
I'm the loneliness up man.
It makes Eastwood look so fine.
No, that's what I remember from being sick in the 80s was just staying home on the couch watching god-awful reruns on, you know, terrestrial TV.
We didn't have cable.
My parents were real cable.
Yeah, but the fall guy was like a new show at that point.
No, no, they were reruns.
Anyway, I'm sorry for, yeah.
But well, yeah, but I would stay home from school and it was better than being at school.
But I remember being sick for like one or two days.
And these last few years when I've been sick, like I'm, I'm sick for like up to three weeks.
So I don't know if like, was my immune system?
Was my immune system that much better as a child?
Or is like, or are the like flu strains actually getting worse?
Because back in like 2018, 2019, I got sick.
And another friend of mine also got the flu and I was sick for three weeks.
And he got the same thing.
And he was also out for a long time.
And it was like a year like where just a bunch of people got sick.
And, you know, they didn't shut down the country or anything.
But like, I, I, I had a, well, I had a fever of like 105.
I was like, I'm going to die.
This time?
No, not this time, but this was like three years ago or something.
Yeah.
Well, you usually go to the doctor when you're that sick.
At that point, I didn't have health insurance.
So I was like, I, I hope I get okay.
Right.
I don't know.
And when your fever's that high, like, obviously, if it, if it gets that high and stays that high, like you can die from just like your brain boiling.
Sure.
But it, it didn't stay that high.
It got like peaked there and then it went down.
Well, from what I understand, the, the, uh, fever is to, is the body raising its temperature to kill whatever is the bad thing in you.
So the fever is, is exactly not, not a bad thing.
And if anything, maybe you take a cool bath or something, you know, you, you put, especially when a child is suffering with that, maybe you put them in a cool bath and you just do things that give a little bit of comfort, but the fever itself is not dangerous.
There is a number at which the body will start to convulse, in which case, yeah, in which case the person should just be restrained.
It's not harmful to the person or like you say, boiling their brain.
That's not going to happen.
The danger would be if somebody was alone and they had that high of a fever and they started to convulse and they fell down and hurt themselves.
That would be the danger.
But when I was little, I in my entire 12 years of school, I would say I might have missed one or two days of school.
My mother would never let me miss a day of school for being ill.
I can remember, you know, having a headache or not feeling good and her, you know, sticking me on the bus anyways and making me go.
And I just always had that habit.
And I can observe it now as an adult.
But even through my adult life with work, I've maybe missed, again, in my entire career, maybe, you know, just a handful of days where I would say I was too sick to go into work.
I would probably have to have like, you know, two broken legs or just, you know, unable to get out of bed.
That's just been inculcated into me.
But what you describe as being, you know, more severe or longer duration of the illness.
Uh, I would say, maybe have you ever looked into things that uh, boost the immune system, like supplement supplements that boost the immune system?
Yeah, are you getting sick all the time, or it's just these once or twice a season, really nasty bugs, because that would suggest, like you were saying, three weeks, him taking three weeks to to turn around.
But that's that does sound kind of abnormal.
You know, maybe that's something all the time, it doesn't?
It's taking all of my powers of resistance to not make a grids joke.
Yeah no, i'm not like, i'm not constantly.
Well yeah, Smasher made that joke last week.
I'm not getting sick constantly, but it's.
It seems that like it's not like I get a cold severity, oh gosh no, it's like this is a flu and this is not something to be taken lightly, because you know you get a cold or or maybe, if you get like some kind of bacterial infection, you know like laryngitis or maybe cellulitis or something you know, just go down, that's a thing.
You can die, isn't that?
Uh, what the ladies get on their legs, cellulite?
No, cellulitis is any cellular infection.
Oh, I got it when I was younger and the doctor said, good thing you got it in time, because this can be potentially deadly.
So yeah, cellulitis can, can be pretty cellulite too.
But yeah well, I mean Rollo.
That's why I was saying, like just take a stupid Covid test and I I understand the poo-pooing of it, like what does it matter?
I'm going to poo-poo it and i'm going to explain why you're a dummy, for for Rollo's belly aching like maybe, maybe i'm dying.
What about the health supplements?
Have you considered that like there are things that boost immune?
Sam, you know what I look like.
It's pretty clear that I take all the supplements in the world.
All right, all right.
Well, I don't know what you take.
So yeah, but I.
But there was an old S N L skit and it was.
It was a parody of like home, whatever tests, and it was home headache tests, and then they had to go through like all these lengths and they had to like tell you tie a tourniquet and they had to withdraw some blood and then you just just wait four hours to to get to get the results you need.
And then it cuts to Will Farrell and he's like it's like oh, I have the worst headache.
And then the woman says wait honey no, you don't.
And then take not.
That's how I feel about the Covid test like, if it comes back positive, so what if it comes back negative?
That's even worse.
Like okay, so what do I have?
I would take a test that that that I would take a test.
If there would be something that says it's either viral or bacterial, that is the only way I would take that test.
And besides, because I had a fever, it was almost certainly viral.
Okay, because that's.
The fever is trying to fight the virus and there's nothing you can do about a viral infection.
Stop, don't interrupt me when i'm making my point and making you sound like a dummy.
I'm trying to make you sound smarter.
No no, you're not.
You're trying to stop me from talking to save yourself the embarrassment from a dumb suggestion.
I'm the host of a respected show here, Rolo.
You're the producer of a respected show and the host and the host of a disrespected show.
And you told me to take a COVID test.
Damn, right.
I know that I'm safe.
You can't handle the truth.
Take the test.
Well, how about with the duration of the symptoms?
I mean, you know, doing things like drinking plenty of water and things like that.
That sometimes, do you know all those things?
You do all those things?
Yes, I do.
Okay, well, maybe the listeners don't, you know.
He's drinking, he's drinking vodka and working out.
Pulling nails out of boards.
Yeah, right.
So, Rolo, let me say my piece.
GD it.
First, I am going to sympathize with you, my friend, because I get the man cold here and there.
And often it manifests in the worst, most soul-crushing, skull-expanding, life-draining way possible.
And ever since 2020, when that happens, I think, oh, this is the big one.
I got the monkey AIDS, as Sewell calls it, or I got the China flu.
So I have those, I have like 10 free tests up in the closet from the doctors giving it to me.
The Biden's giving it to me, etc.
You got a bunch of them.
I'm like, well, let me, I'm just curiosity.
Knowledge is power.
Do I have COVID?
Or should I stop being a gigantic pussy like my producer and just realize that I have some virus that my body needs time to test?
And I take those tests and they've always come back from negative, except for the one time I had COVID.
And what that does is tell me, one, I don't have this weird, freaky thing that was engineered with U.S. and Chinese cooperation in Wuhan.
And two, all right, maybe I like knowledge is power and your brain can sometimes be like, all right, that's good.
I'm not dying of monkeypox.
I have a virus.
So that's why I like taking the tests.
I don't have COVID.
And the fact that you're getting very ill for extended periods of time suggests that you might actually be getting COVID-19 COVID Omicron COVID necrophilia.
I don't know that all the tests detect all the different COVID truths they say are out there.
So maybe it's not definitive.
I don't know.
Who knows?
Well, and also the one thing that I threw out there during like the peak of COVID variants was they're probably just classifying other seasonal illnesses as COVID variants.
Oh, yeah.
Well, the push more go COVID crap.
Maybe.
Because coronavirus is nothing new.
I mean, that's a cold is around coronavirus.
Yeah.
Coronavirus is everywhere.
However, I clearly had viruses and temperatures and aches and pains, Rolo.
And you would think if those tests were just, oh, yeah, it's COVID.
It's COVID.
It's COVID.
They would come back positive.
No, they all came back negative.
So maybe you're getting the flu.
Yeah, I'm fairly certain.
I just got the flu.
And I was fairly certain if I took a COVID test, it would say negative.
And then I'm back where I am.
So like, why, why even bother wasting the time going to be when that time wasted could be spent working out and drinking vodka.
So what are we talking about then?
Just your feelings?
I mean, do you want us to give you medical advice, Sam and I with our MDs?
Or is this basically just you?
No, the one, no, the thing that I was wondering is are like, are viruses like adapting to like just so many people that like like foreigners and stuff.
Yeah, probably so.
Because I struggle to believe that my immune system as like a strong, well-nourished fit man is better than when I was like seven or eight.
That's interesting.
Yes.
Yeah.
I mean, maybe something in your area, because I mean, I'm not sick that often and not for that duration either.
I, I, this, the last time I was in this or the last time I got really sick, I wasn't in this area.
And I wasn't when was the last time you gave yourself a good enema?
I never, but, uh, but in the last time I got sick, when I was out when I was out for three weeks, I wasn't the only one that that was sick that was out that long.
And it wasn't like it was me and a bunch of carney mutants.
It was like other fit people.
So like that, it is strange that like multiple people are just out for weeks.
Back in the old days, like I'm talking my grandparents' era, it was like the advice was to whether you're sick or not, like maybe once a month or something.
You give yourself a, you know, tablespoon of castor oil and an enema bag and you fill that thing up.
Sam still does it even when he feels good.
Now, what do I, what do I do with the bag?
Do I give that to like someone I really don't like or something?
Like no, you reuse the bag.
No, you, you bag.
I'm sure there's a YouTube video on how to do an enema.
I don't know if I want to reuse a bag that I did.
No, you don't.
No, you're getting it all wrong.
I am going to get it all wrong.
I must not be up.
Rolo's going to use a douchebag on his butt.
No, I was thinking like a paper bag.
That's what I used toilet for this.
Oh, I was thinking you like fill a bag, you know.
No, It's got to be really messy or something.
Let's just leave it to that.
There's a good YouTube video that the listeners can go to and get all the details on this.
Devoted to it.
And Rolo, you think it's even like a fetish or something.
This reminds me of the Howard Stern show when Robin used to talk about her high colonics system for colon cleansing.
I first heard that term in the movie LA story from Sarah Jessica Parker's character.
Colonics.
Yeah.
Rolo, you have to share what your stack is now so that the entire audience knows to do the exact opposite of that.
I mean, in all seriousness, what do you take on a regular basis?
Supplement.
I take zinc, a multivitamin, RNA pills.
That's a joke.
That was not a joke.
RNA pills?
What the hell are RNA pills?
I don't know.
It's supposed to be good for your DNA.
It's like DNA.
Sorry, you got me.
Okay.
Don't take RNA pills, fam.
Go on.
Take it.
I mean, unless you want the vaccine.
Come on.
How else are you going to treat your RNA?
Gosh dang.
I'm blanking here.
I hope you're taking vitamin D3.
I'm taking D3, yes.
Vitamin B, a vitamin K.
And I think that's it.
All right.
Nothing weird or I used to take, I used to take boron, but did you say C?
C is in the multivitamin.
Ah, scrap the multivitamin.
Just take a thousand.
I also take those, you know, those emergency packets.
It's just like a thousand milligrams of vitamin C and they taste like orange or elden berry or whatever.
I take those two.
Because you actually don't want a lot of vitamin c like that.
That is a myth that you can't have enough vitamin c because Linus Pauling disagrees.
Yes, but go ahead.
Uh yeah uh no, you can have too much.
I believe it causes renal failure.
No yeah, I think it does.
You can have too much on the supplement side.
Uh, I don't want to completely move on from Rollo's imminent death.
Uh, I will go to your funeral.
Uh, thank you.
No, but I mean we, we know a couple mds we can connect you and do a little side.
Unofficial this is not official medical advice consult uh.
But with the threat of nuclear war in the in the air and uh governments talking about uh, I guess Ukraine's giving or no, Poland is giving out potassium iodide pills.
Got to be careful with how you describe things.
A little prophylactic for your uh thyroid in case the big one goes off in the atmosphere.
And I have been taking a drop of and this is not medical advice.
I have no idea if this is doing good harm or is just a waste, but Lugal's solution came up, which is an iodine solution.
Two percent is what I take, one drop a day in my coffee because a uh beloved and medically educated family member said that that is good for prostate health, which is one of those things.
It's uh, it's like cataracts.
Like if you live long enough as a man, you will develop prostate cancer.
It's like set in stone, if you live long enough, you will develop cataracts in your eyes.
So this uh loving individual said, just put a drop of this in your coffee.
You can definitely screw up your system with iodine at high levels.
Uh, it's like.
It's a disinfectant.
Uh, on wounds and etc.
Yeah, but suppose you know.
But, and a little bit of thyroid protection, thyroid health too.
Do your own research.
Mine's from dr Something I don't know.
I'm just mentioning this dr Oz.
No, it's not from dr Oz.
Yeah, I always thought he was creepy too and I I told you guys that my son, uh junior, found out about the birds.
He like knew about the birds and the bees, and I was like, how the hell did you, did you google that or whatever?
Because I found out from my two years older neighbor who told me about it.
I was like oh, horrified by it.
He's like no, I found that me, the uh Encyclopedia book from dr Oz.
That's like up in some dusty bookshelf.
You know, I got it as a gift years ago.
So the little bugger just went up and found that book and then like the rec, The procreation chapter, educate him.
I was like, all right.
So a senate candidate told you about the birds and the bees before your old man or your mom could get to you.
Okay uh rollo, do you?
I mean yeah, Ricky Lake yeah, do you think that there's something actually wrong?
Or do you think, I mean, you're in good shape, you take supplements, you work out uh, you don't know, in Uganda okay, I know it's happened and it happens.
This happens to me every time when I get sick is uh, I get sleep deprived and uh, leading up to that I, I got very little sleep, and then that generally happens.
My, my emotional sleep definitely pulls into immunity for sure.
Yeah like like, when i'm sleep deprived, like I, I turn into like a bathhouse frequenter.
Surprising, no one.
Yeah, I mean hey bathhouse, but a regular bathhouse.
James Lafon told us that he slept like 45 minutes a day for 10 years.
Yeah right, some people are fine too.
Yeah, Some people are fine on it, but like, like if I'm sleep, if I'm sleep deprived, like physically and mentally, I'm fine, but it's just like that's, I guess, uh, my body compensates by just lowering the immune system to zero.
Oh, it's almost like a mathematical formula.
Uh, if you one, drink too much and two, don't sleep enough, you're gonna get sick.
Yeah.
Yes.
I mean, yes, you could, you can sneak by plenty of times, but if I have a bad weekend, it's not just a hangover.
You're coming down with something the next day because you are suppressing your body's natural reaction catches up with you.
When I got sick, when I got sick bad a few years back, it was just a guy that was sick came into my work and then just got everybody sick.
But this time I just was low on sleep.
I was like, I'll probably be fine.
And I just started coughing the next day.
I'm like, yep, yep, there it is.
So you're just going to chew up time on Full House talking about your maladies rather than maybe going to a doctor or getting a test for this or that.
And I called a doctor.
You know what they said?
Five weeks to the nearest appointment.
B.S.
You don't have an urgent care near you?
No, I'm not joking.
That's how terrible.
Living in the UK?
Well, it's because everyone I call, sorry, we don't see new clients or new patients.
And so the earliest we can get you in is this.
And it's, I could go to the emergency room and then just sit there on the table.
Yeah.
And then they'll say like, you got the flu.
So stay home and drink plenty of liquids.
Thanks for waiting for 14 hours in a room with a bunch of smelly Mexicans.
Yeah.
Well, and drink plenty of fluids, which should include some of Grandma Towler's delicious tea.
I drank a lot.
I drank a lot of tea because I had a really bad sore throat and drinking water was not so comfortable.
Yeah.
Well, sipping some hot, something hot like tea is good, though.
I remember when we had we had Laura and Sam on the show and I bought their, they have these lovely teacups with the English scene on there.
I've got a couple of those and I got a bag of their tea.
Good for you, Sam.
I have to cup and admit that I never bought Grandma Towler's tea only because I have a giant stack of green tea.
I really like green tea.
And I was like, oh yeah, this one, tell you what.
I'm putting a note down.
Do they drink green tea in England?
Probably not.
They probably consider that assaulting.
Yeah.
Yeah, I know.
Everybody in my family drinks tea except me.
I drink it maybe twice a year or something.
I don't hate it.
I just, I don't know.
I don't go to that.
But my wife, she has a big, gigantic box of varieties of all different teas.
So like buying more tea is probably not the right move for us, but I had to get some of Grandma Towler's tea.
Yeah, I never understood the British obsession with tea.
It's totally like the feminine to the masculine coffee.
You know, like, would you like a cup of coffee or would you like a cup of tea?
One of those masculine teachers.
Urgent tea to the Chad coffee.
Yeah, right.
Oh, God.
You know what?
You probably have to do it.
No, I'm just joking.
Just joking.
When you don't want violent diarrhea in the middle of the day.
Yeah.
You know what?
Tea is something you do.
You do sit there and just sip it.
Coffee is something you kind of guzzle on your way to work or something, you know.
But tea is something to kind of sit and sip it.
It's a different experience.
I do not like to have perfect when you're not feeling too well.
I don't like to have coffee when I'm feeling sick.
No, because it's diuretic, right?
It dries you out even more.
I made one cup because I was like, I haven't had a cup in a while.
Screw this.
I'm having a cup.
It was a mistake.
So I drank better.
T is way better for if you're not feeling too good or you need something a little bit soothing.
Oh, yeah.
I love.
Certain teas do certain things.
Like time tea is a cough suppressant, which is or chamomile is good.
Good if you're having a little bit of congestion or something.
I say chamomile, but that's okay.
Chamomile.
I say chamomile too, but I knew exactly what he meant.
So I didn't feel like correcting him like a jerk.
Really?
Oh, no, that's right.
Yeah, I hiked it.
I hiked a mile in my camo.
It made me think of that.
By the way, I cannot mute myself.
I cannot control anything here.
I'm flying blind on Telegram.
It's totally frozen.
I'm going to be really pissed.
This is Lost City.
I might not be able to close this chat, but I did want to mention if the audio quality is different here in the second half, it's because we switched back to our regular recording studio on Telegram.
We recorded the first half with James LaFond on Skype, which it's so amazing how clunky and plodding and slow and weird Skype is, which was built from the ground up to be a video and voice chat platform.
And along comes some genius Russian who, granted, now lives and at least operates out of Dubai.
And Telegram is crisper clear, except for this first time that my window is frozen.
Yeah.
But it's slick.
Not just Telegram.
Like there's other services and Skype is the worst one.
Skype is worse than Zoom.
It's worse than Discord.
Just like name a seriously, it's worse than Facebook calling.
Instagram.
It's time.
Who uses it really?
Because I mean, I take certain amount of calls at work and stuff, you know, video calls and stuff.
No one ever uses Skype.
The last show that we did on Skype was with our USS Liberty veterans.
bless them yeah and by the way uh our main come back on right Yeah, he's going to come back on.
Our main contact there.
We got a date set.
We'll see how that works out.
Yeah.
Anyway, I just wanted to flag that, but Skype sucks and it's just incredible that it was built to be this and like Microsoft bought it for $200 trillion or whatever it was.
And it still sucks.
Yeah, it still sucks.
It's worse now than it used to be.
Yeah.
Or worse.
I prefer like using AIM to using Skype.
Like AIM had voice messaging and it was better than Skype.
We used to use Google Voice, which or Google meetups, Google Hangouts, whatever the hell.
Yeah, they changed the name like 10 times.
Well, that was fine, except they added the limit to it.
Exactly.
Yeah.
We found out about the limit while we were recording the show and it was like, you're a recording.
We'll end in one minute.
What?
It was a 30-minute max.
They're like, hey, they did us a favor.
Thanks.
We found Telegram.
Let's see.
Quick, Rolo.
Let's get you in touch with one of our MD buddies and just talk it out.
You know, doctors, they love talking medicine, even off the clock.
I have doctors in my family.
Like, it was never really a concern.
It was more like, gosh, dang it.
I have a virus and there's nothing I can do.
I would love it if we if we didn't have like blacks, Mexicans and third worlders in this country so we could have the technology to have a test that can differentiate between a viral and a bacterial infection.
That would be amazing if we actually had that.
But you know, when it's when it's bacterial versus viral because of how your phlegm looks.
Like that, like that deep green is like, that is a bacterial infection.
Yeah.
And I didn't have that.
So I'm like, and yes, it was yellow and I had a fever.
I'm like, it's clear as day.
It's like I have the flu.
So I just have to sit down and wait for it to be over.
Well, this is what it doesn't mean I can't be unhappy.
But the main thing was, have the viruses gotten worse?
And I think they have.
Okay.
That's the only aspect.
Either you're dying or we're talking about the viruses mutating to.
Oh, yeah.
Well, you heard, you heard of this recent polio outbreak in New York, right?
I saw something about that.
Yeah.
So, I mean, you know, thanks to these certain foreigners, at least, and their dirty ways, you know, we can expect more of that, I guess.
Now, I have a little side note on that.
I had a friend who was like a very like cold, calculating, scientific guy.
And then he went away to college and he came back the most stereotypical libtard.
And one of his big things was being anti-anti-vax.
And he firmly believed that these third world viruses were coming back because white rural people weren't vaccinating their kids.
And he would not entertain the idea that third worlders coming in unchecked would just have polio or yellow fever or whatever, typhoid or smallpox or whatever.
That would complicate his worldview.
Yeah.
Yes.
Blame Whitey, not exotic foreigners arriving en masse from places where monkeys and bats are from the Temple of Doom.
Yep, exactly.
Temple of Doom.
Hey, our one MD buddy was actually a flu vaccine supporter.
He said, I know that this is the classic flu vaccine.
He said, I know that it doesn't always match up with the strains, but one a year would give your body essentially a boost in influenza defense.
Now, I don't know if he's changed his mind or if that's bunk or that's common sense, but take that to heart.
All right, we have to move on.
And then Landus Puppy, Quick Coach's Comfy Corner, by all means, Rolo Sam, supplement, please.
But today was one of those fall days.
The sky was a little bit cloudy.
The leaves are totally near peak and wifey.
By the way, oh, by the way, Sam, this weekend is our 16th.
Sorry, this is for you too, Rolo, and you, dear listener, if you're still with us.
This weekend is our 16th wedding anniversary.
And if you include the years of dating and engagement, we are at 20, 21 years together.
So I mentioned Wifey and I, you know, we were scouting and prepping for a tree, a treehouse for the kids when Loretta Lynn was playing out in the glorious Appalachian woods.
And I said to her, can you believe we've been together for about half our lives?
We're both early 40s.
And we smiled at each other and had one of those little moments looking at each other like, holy moly.
Can you believe that half your life has been committed and dedicated to another human being?
It's an amazing accomplishment feeling.
And yes, we have a modest but special plan for this weekend, which is also why I was so delighted that we're recording tonight.
I guess technically it is our anniversary right now.
Oh, yeah.
Well, happy anniversary.
There you go.
Thank you.
You made an excellent choice, coach, and so did she.
Cheers, brother.
Right back at you.
But in the spirit of the season, Wifey took Junior to go see a local high school sporting event, which was cool because he's interested in it.
And they got a little bit of, you know, mom and firstborn son time.
So I'm sitting there at home with daughter and potato and I'm looking around.
She's playing on her tablet, Wholesome Game, and he's playing with his trucks and his tracks.
And I said, hey, and the dog is like looking at us, like, can we do something?
So I said, hey, we're going for a walk in the woods, obviously right out of our backstep.
So we just went for a one hour.
This is not going to, you know, be a revelation for anybody.
It's just a reminder that we went for a beautiful autumnal walk in the woods.
I, of course, can never help the temptation to like pick up sticks and like, oh, that would be a good path and stuff like that.
But something as simple and elementary as just walking in nature with your kids can be transcendental to a certain extent.
This time of year in particular, I have a witch cackle that I like to bust out every once in a while that one time actually made my daughter cry.
Like I surprised her with it and she started crying.
I was like, oh my God, I'll spare the listener the recreation.
But I was, you know, she's old enough now that I was able to do it.
And she laughed instead of crying.
And Potato was a little bit scared.
And the dog was by our side and ahead of us and behind us the whole time.
And I had another one of those moments, Sam, where I saw the two of them ahead of me.
And they're still young and small enough to enjoy and find something like that to be special or innocent or whatever and not a drag.
You know, it wasn't like, oh, dad wants us to go for a walk in the woods, you know, lame-o, trying to recreate special time.
So I took a little picture of it and counted my lucky stars for my life and my kids.
And to the single guys out there, the simple pleasures are worth a million bucks.
They're priceless.
They're worth more than a million bucks to go for a walk in the woods with your kids.
Yeah, there's nothing.
There's nothing you would trade for something like that.
I mean, there's no money or anything else that you could trade for that type of experience.
Indeed.
May I have to do it again tomorrow.
Yeah, maybe tell you the fall weather's on its way.
You know, we get the weather a day or two before you do.
And yeah, it's coming, brother.
Just wait.
It's some cool days here.
But, you know, warm afternoons, some very nice warm afternoons.
You know, when we were out at this event last weekend, I mentioned, you know, we kind of really partied pretty hard for a couple days.
And then we had the wedding to attend, but we spent the afternoons outside.
It was very warm, but boy, hanging out when it was getting to be nighttime and hanging outside for a smoke and a beer with the guys got pretty cold.
I don't know if it hit 40 or what, but it got pretty cold where it was not too comfortable to sit outside.
Same thing in the mornings.
I sat up outside on the balcony with my guitar and played some tunes for anybody who might be up.
And it was pretty cold.
Yep, we're in the sweet spot here where it's warm enough during the day that you can keep the windows open.
And then around five or six o'clock, you shut them and the house stays warm enough that you don't have to turn on the heat.
We have all electric heat here.
Of course, I got backup propane heaters, etc.
So in a totally dad prime time zone where you're like, oh, baby, I can't wait to see that electric bill.
It's going to be really, really low.
But the days of electric heat are approaching.
And that's another reason to get out there and go for a walk with your kids because I know from experience that as much as you may try in prod, they only want to go outside in the winter if you're going sledding or going skiing.
A little trudge through the snow doesn't have quite the same appeal.
Certainly for Sam's godforsaken winters where he is up there in Lake Woba Gone.
I just, I wanted to mention real quick here at the end, we're not going to do a whole political thing, but news broke yesterday and commentary today about a federal judge or a federal court that decided now 2014 was when DACA, deferred action against childhood arrivals, was decreed.
Obama issued an edict that, no, the federal government would not enforce deportation or any other immigration regulations against so-called minors who were brought here.
Dreamers, right?
Exactly.
Yep, the DREAMers.
And then they were going to pass the DREAM Act, which they never did.
So they couldn't pass the DREAM Act, couldn't get it through those pesky Republicans.
So Obama was just like, after the 2014 midterms, when he got totally shellacked, he was just like, oh, with the stroke of my long, spindly, gay black hands, I will say that they are freed from deportation.
And that was, for the hardy listeners still with us here in the second hour, when the re it wasn't the edict that radicalized me.
It was the Republicans storm undrong about fighting it and defunding DHS and we're going to take, you know, and they basically did nothing.
And that literally was one of my red pill epiphanies that woke me up to the reality of American politics.
No, the GOP is not your friend.
No, they are not actually willing to fight for your interests, like keeping millions of hostile aliens out.
And that was when I was, I literally, I don't, I didn't literally throw papers up in the air, but in my mind, I did.
And I was like, F this, because I was Q1776 or no amnesty was my handle on Twitter.
I was like, you know what?
I feel like Coach Finstock right now, that sort of dumb, nihilistic, goofball basketball coach who didn't really care about anything.
Cause I was like, what's going on here?
What is this country?
Why do we even have a government?
Why do we even have immigration enforcement if one guy is just going to with a stroke of a pen say, nope, you're allowed to stay.
It doesn't matter.
There's no code in the immigration law that says, oh, well, if your parents brought you here as a minor, you get to stay.
So long story short, that's the explanation Coach Finstock was the origin of Coach Finstock.
This one, at least, was in Republicans' failure to do anything about this.
And just yesterday, a federal court said, ah, yes, actually, we agree now, eight years later, that the original judge who struck it down, again, it lasted all four years of Trump.
He talked about rescinding it.
He talked about saving it.
He talked about the DREAMers all and all.
So they finally said, oh, yes, this didn't pass constitutional or legal muster, but they're still allowed to stay.
It's going to be going through another process up to the Supreme Court.
And they're still going to be able to be here despite the fraud, the farce that is the original decision.
And, you know, they talk about fascism and dictators and the American right white wing wants to bring back dictatorship.
Well, what the F was that?
What do you call this?
It was just incredible.
I had forgotten about it too, you know, because like that was the stuff that used to activate my Jimmies eight years ago was actual policy and Republican inefficacy.
And I used to write my congressman or like, you know, try to say, hey, we should do something about this.
And then at a certain point, you know, you throw your papers up in the air and say, no, this is, this is a serious, this is, this is not serious.
But it's still going on now eight years later.
And after four years of having the anti-immigration law and order president who we fought and donated and campaigned for, couldn't just rescind that executive order with an executive order.
No.
Kritarchy, cowardice, Jewish money, take your pick.
There you go.
That's the making of a white nationalist is frauds in American immigration jurisprudence.
Check it out.
DACA, Deferred Action Against Childhood Arrivals and the recent court decision.
The Jewish Secretary of Homeland Security said, we're reviewing the decision and we will be responding, of course, because the Department of Homeland Security wants millions of non-American kids, quote unquote kids, who were smuggled here by their lawbreaking parents to be allowed to stay.
Didn't have to be their parents.
Sure.
Cayotes or take your pick.
I'm laughing about it now because I'm like thinking back to those times and how crazy that made me.
And I'm a lot more sane now that I recognize it for what it is rather than getting spun up about that, right?
I was a numbers USA guy sending faxes to like congressmen like, no, we good Americans, we true red-blooded Americans, black, white, yellow, brown, it doesn't matter.
It's the rule of law and the Constitution.
A president can't just do that.
Oh, my sweet summer child eight years ago.
Oh, yeah.
We've all been there.
I remember doing the same thing at one point.
Yep.
And it's not to say that you shouldn't completely.
Yeah, it's, you know, the person is not to be condemned.
I mean, it's a very brave thing to do to set some time aside, write a letter.
I mean, in the early and mid-90s, I mean, then it was writing an actual letter on paper and putting it in an envelope with a stamp.
You know, I used to get this newsletter from a conservative organization that would tell you, oh, these are the issues.
These are the people to write to.
Go get them.
And then a bunch of people would write.
I'm sure it exerted some leverage.
I mean, to get a bunch of letters like that, a bunch of angry letters about a particular topic, but it ultimately didn't do any good because the system is not for us or by us or anything like that.
So we have to make our own system.
You might succeed.
I remember in the 2006, 2008 amnesty push in the late W years.
It was, it's funny.
They basically stopped.
And even Biden talked about doing comprehensive immigration reform.
We're finally going to get it done.
And then they realized they're like, well, that's just a big pain in the ass for us.
We have to like, you know, formalize it and put it down into law.
We have to harangue X amount of Republicans to go put their name in support of it.
And they're like, ah, actually, let's just not deport them and allow them to come in.
And, you know, the status quo suits us good enough.
Who cares if they're technically formalized?
Yeah.
States are not.
We'll fly them around, you know, buss them around.
Yeah.
And they want them to have full benefits as though they were citizens, including being able to vote.
They do.
They vote anyway.
No one can tell me.
And nobody can honestly.
Not that it matters, but yeah, just all the whole thing, you know, them getting because they're getting wicked.
They're getting medical.
I used to go back and forth this libtard back in my normie Republican days.
And I said, you can't honestly believe that illegals aren't voting.
And he said, no, they'd never risked deportation.
They drive drunk all the time.
What the hell?
What are you thinking?
Yeah.
I remember because they're too drunk to vote.
I believe that over anything else.
My first job in South Jersey, first real job other than mowing lawns, I worked at a garden center and there was a gaggle of, you know, decent enough Mexican guys who lived out of a trailer and did more work than we gringos did, truth be told, and got paid less for it.
And one of them went and got in a nasty drunk driving accident.
He used to buy us Coronas for us.
That was like our beer hookup.
And he was drunk off his ass and crashed his car.
They were all banged up, basically got patched up for free from the system.
And I remember asking like, David, did the police arrest you?
And he had, and he was, truth be told, he was kind of like a good soul.
And he had those like Cheshire white teeth.
And he just laughed.
He said, ha ha, no, not maliciously.
He just like, you know, just laughing like, no, no, I just got in a drunk driving accident, crashed my car, almost killed all my passengers.
God knows who else.
And he was like, he was, yeah, got patched up at the hospital and was back at work working illegally within a couple of weeks.
That should have been a red pill at the time, but I was like, oh, okay.
Hardworking David is got the drunk driving pass.
And there's some kid.
There's some kid who's doing a study into what are the roots of white nationalism and far-right extremism and radicalization.
Smasher put it on Telegram.
I was like, thousands of hours of podcasts, interviews, articles, social media.
Like we have told you, but you don't want to listen.
So some little prick wants to do a thumb-sucking exercise and he'll chalk it up to delusional conspiracies as opposed to the things that we've seen before our very eyes.
Well, that's good.
I want them to think that so that they don't understand what's happening until it's too late.
Some of them understand.
Yeah.
The researchers, they know, they understand, but they're paid to not understand.
And even if they do understand, they hate us anyway because they want the open borders.
They are okay with the anti-white crime.
They are okay with quote unquote fascism in the sense that their side gets to make the rules and oppress whoever they want.
But boy, will they reach for the smelling salts if anybody who opposes their homosexual, drug-addled, open borders, disgusting agenda comes even close to a microphone, let alone real political power.
It's the damnedest thing.
And it makes me smile and laugh because it's so crazy.
And it just reminds me of the journey.
And makes me sad.
People are away.
Yeah.
And it will collapse eventually.
It cannot go on.
It's not sustainable, but there is hard times to come, so check out James Lafon's books.
Say a prayer for Rollo's health.
Uh, and Sam is the golden boy this week.
He's, he's healthy, everything's rolling on and uh, he's always the biggest white pill dispenser on this show.
Rollo, thank you, my friend.
Last thoughts, uh uh I, I got out.
All right.
You want to plug anything?
Tell, tell us about the final story.
Uh, we took the week off because um, I was in my coffin but uh, we'll be back.
We have a new commentary track coming for Return Of The Living Dead and I always have fun doing those good stuff.
And your halloween list I posted on Telegram and it was actually respected and well received.
Bunch of uh, horror affection autos said, yeah, that's legit okay yeah dummies uh Sam, thank you, big guy.
Yeah, thank you I.
I enjoyed this show very much.
Same here.
All right fam, Full House.
Episode 142 was recorded on a perfect temperature for october.
I'm not complaining, it's almost a full moon out there.
I made sure the dog stayed in the house so I didn't have that running around and barking in the background here.
Hope you enjoyed James Lafon there.
Please do buy his books, Jameslafon.com.
And I meant what I said at the top, uh, not to shill for shekels uh, but to get a little bit of diversity in the donor class, if you will.
Uh, because I love and respect the guys who have been die hard regulars and i'm sure they don't regret it they're not bitter there but help them out a little bit.
Who knows, maybe they need a break and you need to step up to keep this thing rolling.
And the truth is that a donation is the biggest spark in my engine to work harder and deliver content, because i'm like that's somebody who took the time to donate to full house because he or she enjoys it or appreciates it.
That's the god's honest truth.
This week we are going to uh, you know, follow us on telegram and GAB and all that stuff, and this week we are going to turn it over to Rollo for our closing spooky song, which has a high saxophone quotient, however still passes coaches muster Rollo.
What are we listening to now?
This would be Jason, the slow and reverb version by the Midnight, and the Midnight is a very, very excellent band.
I recommend almost everything from them.
All right, check out the Midnight, enjoy this little Jason, remix or remake.
We love you, fam.
We will talk to you next week.
I got to send a message to our pal Handsome Truth and get him on the books because he could only do it this weekend, which didn't work for me.
And we'll talk to you next week with somebody, even if it's just us, and go ahead Sam, it's all yours, See ya?
See ya.
Someone else is way too loud.
Deep in the mud, it's easy to hide.
And he's got it all figured out.
White set of lights, we've been lost in his eyes.
But to him, she's just another girl.
Roll with his head like a wind in the sky, and it'll only let you down.
Ooh, chash.
Tell me what you should say.
Because you're not ever giving you what you want.
Ooh, Jason.
And if you can't escape me, I hope you find whatever you've been looking for.
Ooh, where do you go in a town full of ghosts?
And everybody knows your name.
And all the homecoming queens in the small town sees they'll all be a place to stay.
Someone forever instead of whenever.
And they're naked in the light.
It's a strange little potion, but sometimes emotion almost makes you feel alive.
Ooh.
Joshua.
Tell me what you should say.
Because tonight I'll never give you what you want.
Ooh, Joshua.
And if you can't escape me, I hope you find whatever you've been looking for.
And I'm gonna keep on, going.
Keep on running.
And I'm gonna keep on, going.
Keep on, Ooh,
Jason, tell me what you should say.
Because tonight will never give you words enough.
Ooh, Jason, and if you can't escape me, I hope you'll find whatever you've been looking for.
Ooh, ooh, keep my heart.
Ooh.
