Danny Jones joins Joe Rogan to dissect hidden Giza structures, Jeffrey Drum’s ammonia-pyramid theory, and Operation Paperclip’s ties to MK Ultra. They debate moon landing inconsistencies, Bill Clinton/Trump’s Epstein connections, and $21T black budgets for anti-gravity tech. Jones’ Deckhands documentary exposes Florida fishing industry exploitation—deckhands earning $4K–$5K per trip while trapped in heroin cycles—contrasting with healthier traditions elsewhere. Rogan and Jones critique YouTube censorship, citing suppressed lab-leak theories and vaccine debates, while questioning whether ancient civilizations like Sumer or Egypt were far older than accepted timelines. Ultimately, the episode blends fringe science, geopolitical intrigue, and systemic failures to challenge mainstream narratives on history, technology, and media manipulation. [Automatically generated summary]
Yeah, I had a dude on my show a couple weeks ago who was explaining how that was a part of some YouTube channel that put something together in Italy, I think it was.
And the people that were involved with it were promoting some sort of technology that had something to do with penetrating the ground, some like different kind of LIDAR or something like this.
Yeah, he thinks that the whole thing, his new book, which is called The Tesla Connection, basically explains that it's a, he thinks that there was like a device in the subterranean chamber, like a hammer that hammered the earth.
And then the plane, the Giza Plateau is like, is active, seismically active area.
And when it hammers the earth, it creates many earthquakes.
The Overcome is author has analyzed micromovements within the pyramid, typically induced by background seismic waves to achieve high-resolution, full 3D tomographic images of its interior, imaging of its interior and subsurface.
The approach rendered the pyramid transparent, allowing for the reconstruction of internal objects and the discovery of previously unseen structures.
So if it works and shows the actual internal structure of the pyramid accurately, and it can accurately depict that one, the one, was it a temple or what was it that was, I feel like it was a temple.
It was 50 feet underground.
It had the exact interior dimensions of it.
There's probably something to it, and we're going to find out eventually, hopefully.
These guys, guys like Zawi Hawass and these gatekeepers of this information, they do not want any groundbreaking new discovery to come out.
They really don't.
Especially something like that.
If you really find out there's giant columns underneath the pyramid and that there's these structures that go down two kilometers into the ground, like all bets are off then.
Try explaining that away for people that live 2,500 BC.
And then there's also some of those sculptures that they made that look like they're 3D printed.
I mean, they're incredible.
Perfectly symmetrical on the left side and the right side.
And we don't really understand it.
And we don't know what technology they were using, what kind of tools they were using.
And it's hard to know, man.
It's hard to know.
When they burned the Library of Alexandria and they destroyed all the records, there's so much missing from the history of Egypt and how they did what they did.
He lives like, I think right across the street from the pyramids.
And he's basically got this very interesting theory that it was all chemical manufacturing.
And the pyramids were chemical manufacturing plants.
And I am going to like butcher this description, but I'm going to do my best.
Basically, what he found was that in a bunch of the other pyramids, like the red pyramid and some of the other pyramids, he's been in there and gone through them all.
And he's basically, what they describe when they go in there is this smell, which some people equate to being like bat shit.
But what he thinks is going on is it's creating some sort of like a chemical reaction in those chambers to create fertilizer.
Because there's a subterranean chamber below those where they have like all kinds of, they were putting shit in there, like animal shit down there.
And then there's also these like ravines, these like cut out channels that come out of the bottom of the pyramid and there's these bowls that were supposed to collect like chemicals.
So he has this really elaborate theory on how, which I, when I heard him tell me this, it made so much sense.
But the problem was like, it makes sense.
It seems super reasonable, but like why build these massive structures that are so precise just to make chemicals?
And, you know, he was explaining like the agriculture and like why they needed to create fertilizer.
But it seems like the way he was describing the interior, though, of that, of the red pyramid was like it was reverse engineered to actually create the chemical that they would have needed to enhance the agriculture of the area.
Like they showed it.
They actually created it in a lab with like using the chemical process.
I think there was like some Nazi scientists involved in this, of course.
The whole those columns that went down, those passages that went down, and then there was the porous limestone that was at the end that seeped through.
And he believed that this was all like some sort of a chemical reaction that they had to doing this.
Fritz Haber won the Nobel Prize about a century ago.
Yeah, the Haber process.
Fritz Haber's a crazy story.
Do you know that story?
No.
Okay.
Fritz Haber, he devised a method of extracting nitrogen from the atmosphere.
And for that, he was winning a Nobel Prize at the same time in which he was being wanted for war crimes because he also created Zyklon gas.
So he created the gas that they were using to spray on the Allies.
So they would get this gas and spray it with fans.
This was the first time they'd ever done something like this before, used gas in warfare.
And they used, and he was a Jew, and they used, he created Zyklon A, which was then converted to Zyklon B. So Zyklon A had a very disgusting smell to it, so you knew it was coming.
And then Zyklon B they used during the Holocaust to gas the Jews.
But the Fritz Haber thing, you know, he was eventually exiled from Nazi Germany because he was Jewish.
Like, they allowed him to stay initially in the beginning because he was so valuable because he had done so much and because he did create this gas that they were using to gas the Allies.
And then, you know, but imagine, guys, up for a Nobel Prize at the same time where he's wanted for war crimes.
Yeah.
And because he was doing all this, his wife commits suicide.
She shoots herself in the chest.
He leaves her and his 13-year-old son to go to the front line while she's struggling for her life, like she's still alive.
She eventually dies.
He leaves her.
Yeah, the whole thing's horrific.
And then he dies on the run.
So he dies.
I think he had a heart complication, which, duh, how much trust was that guy under?
Right.
And then he leaves Nazi Germany when, you know, the shit is going down.
He's on the run and he winds up dying on the run.
I think he was dying on his way to try to seek medical care.
Operation Paperclip for people listening is they shipped over a bunch of the best Nazi scientists and brought him into NASA and some other departments at the end of the war.
And the grandson wanted nothing to do with his father.
He like detested him, his father, with every fiber of his being.
And she was showing him the notes and like showing him like the humanity of the guy.
The guy was torn between like being this scientist contracted to do all this crazy shit for America, but he still loved his wife and son on the other hand.
And he was like, he was so just torn apart by the fact that he had to leave them behind.
And then she showed the dude the documents.
And then Annie Jacobson freaking high-tailed it out of there with all that secret Nazi Shit, like, didn't get caught, which is incredible.
We have talked about Operation Paperclip, but only in regards to like Wernher von Braun.
And, you know, they were in like deep denial about that.
But the Simon Wiesenthal Center said that if Werner von Braun was alive today, he would be prosecuted.
He'd be prosecuted for crimes against humanity.
Yeah, when he was running his rocket factory in Berlin, he would take the five slowest Jews and hang them from the front of the factory so that as you're walking in, like, this is what happens if you move slowly.
And that was the head of NASA who supposedly got us to the moon.
The connections between Kubrick's the shining and the moon landing and all the hidden stuff that he did, all the Easter eggs, including the little boy with the NASA shirt on, the Apollo shirt on.
And then like also the psychological trauma, the scenes with Jack and his wife saying like, don't you know what a contract is?
Where he's like living his double life and he's like arguing with his wife and talking about contracts and secrecy and all this stuff.
And then, you know, there's that, there's so many weird things and like that ball rolls up to Danny on the carpet and then it cuts and then it cuts back to him.
Like picks up the ball and the carpet shape is different.
You know, Kubrick in his spare time would do complex mathematics.
In his spare time.
Yeah.
He was like a legitimate genius.
And it's amazing that he pulled off the greatest science fiction movie of all time, especially at the time, during the exact same time period where the moon landings were filmed.
And the stuff from 2001 is more sophisticated.
It looks better than the stuff from the moon landings.
So the idea that you couldn't fake it.
It's like, yeah, that guy could fake it.
100% he could fake it.
And if they hired him to fake it, if they brought him aboard, the idea that he wouldn't be able to keep secret, like, of course he could.
Yeah, people keep secrets.
This idea that people can't keep secrets because some people can't keep secrets.
Like, listen, high-level military guys keep secrets all the fucking time.
They go to the grave with those secrets.
Yeah, they swear to secrecy.
They swear to an oath.
You know, they have top secret clearance and above and whatever it is.
And they don't say shit forever.
Their whole fucking family doesn't know what they're doing.
The thing about the, like, if you think the moon landing was fake, you're a moron.
But it's like, the thing about it is if they, even if you want to say they did go to the moon, wouldn't it be reasonable to suggest that they would have had a backup plan in case they couldn't get there?
Like, like have some sort of a video footage that they shot or whatever?
Well, not only that, they filmed a lot of training footage.
They definitely tried to pass some of that training footage off as legit.
That's proven.
Like the Michael Collins from Gemini, I forget what mission it was.
It was a spacewalk.
So there's an image of him that was in training.
And, you know, he's got the suit on and the wires.
And he's, you know, working with the spacesuit that you use when you're actually in outside of the capsule or whatever the fuck they call it.
And what they did was from the training mission, they just blacked out the exterior of the same photo and reversed it.
So they switched the photo the other way, blacked, it's the exact same photo, the exact same photo, and they tried to pass it off as Michael Collins on the spacewalk.
Because you got to think, like, how are they taking pictures?
Who's going to take the picture of them out there?
This is part of the problem with, I think it was Apollo 12 or 13, whichever one it was, where they got the footage of the lunar module leaving the moon and going back towards the orbiter.
And then in the 1994 book, he talks about how amazing they were and incredible.
The footage that Sabrell acquired that shows that it appears that they covered up the windows to make this deceptive film that looks like they're far into space.
That's a weird one, man, because I can't find any rational explanation.
I tried to look at it like as objectively as possible because I've gone back and forth on the moon thing.
Like at one point in time, I thought I'm just being really stupid.
Like, of course they went to the moon.
Everybody would know about this.
And then over time, like I joked about it in my comedy special, like after COVID, I'm like, I don't think we went to the moon.
But that's kind of true.
Like once I saw the level of deception that was willfully pushed forth during COVID and how many people were cooperating with this and like how many organizations, government organizations were cooperating, knowing that they lied, knowing that these were lies.
I'm like, yeah, they can lie about all kinds of things.
When I was a kid, when I was in high school, we were terrified of Russia bombing America.
Everyone was like really concerned.
And Russia was the great enemy.
You know, the video of Khrushchev yelling, we will bury you.
Like, that was like burned into every American child's mind.
And if you were a patriot and you wanted to defeat Russia, we have a strategy to defeat Russia, and this is what we're going to do.
First of all, we're going to bankrupt them by just making them spend to keep up with us.
And they don't have a capitalist society.
So they don't really have a GDP.
Well, they have a GDP, but they don't have the same sort of corporate structure that we have in America where they're striving and innovating and developing new things.
The companies are getting bigger and there's more growth.
No, they're a communist.
They were a communist country.
So everything was like food lines.
And they didn't have the kind of money that we have.
It wasn't even close.
So Reagan essentially bankrupted them.
And then, you know, during the time, and, you know, all the other people before him as well, but during the time where they were developing these rocket ships, the Russians were way more advanced than us in basically every single thing.
They got to space first, put the first man in space, put the first satellite in space, and they couldn't even come close to putting a guy on the moon.
And the problem with it is like if a rogue nuke got launched from North Korea from one of their submarines, it would have to fly over the North Pole right towards us.
And as soon as they launch it with all of our satellite systems that we can detect the thing, the rocket burner going into orbit, we'll know within five minutes of them launching it, probably before.
And then we literally have to, I guess the way she described it was our policy is once that nuke is launched, we have to empty our silos, our ICBM silos, because they're stationary.
They can't, if they're hit, they're going to try to take us out at those ICBM sites.
That's going to be like one of their first targets.
So it's user or loser.
You have to launch all those ICBM nukes, and then we have to fly those over the North Pole, over Russia to hit North Korea.
And it takes like 11 minutes.
So like you got to get Putin on the phone in 10 minutes saying, yo, these nukes aren't coming for you, bro.
And then by that time, it's like, if you don't have like perfect communication amongst all these world leaders, everyone's going to be launching nukes.
Well, I mean, look, if you have some unique compound like LSD and, you know, it gets, you know, Hoffman discovers it, and then they start experimenting, like, what can we do with this stuff?
And then you find it has profound effects on the human mind.
Of course, you're going to try to use it for mind control.
They had already experimented with all sorts of techniques in regards to doing it with prisoners, like taking prisoners and trying to figure out like what kind of sleep deprivation, what psychological techniques can you use to extract information from them.
So if you had something like LSD, of course they're going to try that.
There's a The DARPA, that DARPA grant that went to University of North Carolina to figure out how to take the psychedelic trip out of LSD, I think it was.
They're trying to make them so they can, this is what I've heard, is that they are trying to make them more effective on the battlefield with things like edge detection and also coming back, like get back out there, like take them through the process, let them recoup and get right back out in the battlefield to where,
you know, if you could get all the benefits of a psychedelic without the trip, would you get those benefits and would it be useful for soldiers in combat?
Well, the Vikings took mushrooms and the berserkers, they would take mushrooms before combat.
Yeah.
I mean, it does make sense.
It really does.
It doesn't make sense to us because we think of mushrooms as like, you know, hey, man, I'm going to go connect with God and it's going to be peaceful.
I'm going to lay in a field.
It's going to be amazing.
I'm going to reset and come back and tell everybody I love them.
You know, that's what mushrooms are to us.
But if you live in an insanely warlike culture and you believe it's right to go to battle and you're supposed to go to battle and Odin is on your side and you take these mushrooms to summon the strength of the gods and to prepare yourself for battle.
There's this dude who is like, I heard about Dana Beale, who's flying Ibogaine to the troops in Ukraine, to the Ukrainian troops, trying to get those guys on Ibogaine.
And meanwhile, the Russians are on, what's that meth drop?
He picks up on trends and culture and sees where people are going.
And he was aware of the dangers of Marxism and a lot of this fucking ridiculous leftist ideology that they were pushing in universities way before anybody else was.
Yeah, there was this documentary that just came out all about him from one of the guys, Thomas, that used to work for Vice.
He was one of the original reporters for Vice.
He did all the early stuff.
And he made this documentary all about Gavin.
And it's like focuses on the transformation from early punk rock, like liberal Gavin in the UK with like the mobs and the rockers to like the current Gavin, which is like, you know, he frames him as just like this super right-wing racist dude.
And, you know, I was asking Gavin about it because he came on the podcast recently.
And he's like, I've always been the same.
He's like, he was explaining that his views never changed.
He was saying that like vice all of a sudden was getting infused with millions of corporate dollars.
And I wasn't a good look for that.
They didn't want me in there.
But meanwhile, he was like the whole soul of vice.
Like if there was no Gavin, there was no vice.
Like all the controversial do's and don'ts shit and like all those controversial articles about like trans and trans shit early in like the early 2000s that he was doing was funny.
And like culture didn't look at it the way it looks at it today, you know?
Okay, so they have to take away all of air quotes, her gold medals.
It's a guy, like, has a penis, has sex with women, supposedly, according to Tony Hinchcliffe.
That's my number one source of news.
But he actually has a bit about it.
It's really funny.
But the university now has to apologize to all the women that were forced to compete with him and say they fucked up and never do it again, and not allow biological men to compete with women, which is like it should be, that should be a left-wing perspective.
Not that you shouldn't be able to be trans.
Of course, you should be able to do whatever you want.
I'm for you doing whatever you want if you don't hurt other people.
If you really believe you're a woman, and look, if you can get fake tits and you can get fake lips and you can get a dick enlargement and like, do whatever you want to do.
I don't care.
Do whatever you want to do.
I'm covered with tattoos.
I've made stupid decisions.
Like, do whatever you want to do.
But when you're competing with women, you are essentially victimizing these women.
You're forcing these women to compete with men who've been through puberty and in this case still have a functional penis, like, which is fucking bananas.
That's a man.
And just because you think you're a woman, physically, we know there's a difference.
I didn't know it was a giant problem until there was that fighter, Fallon Fox, who had competed twice against women without letting them know that this person was a biological male for 30 years, fathered a child, the whole deal.
I'm like, this is crazy.
And that his response was, it's a medical condition, so I don't have to disclose this.
You know, it's medical information, which is just horseshit.
It's crazy.
And when I was saying that, I got attacked like over and over and over again.
Like the left has no problem with a mentally ill man beating the shit out of women, falsely claiming that they're not even allowing these women to know.
These women think they're going to go compete in a low-level MMA fight.
Like a lot of them didn't look good.
They didn't look like they were well-trained.
And they're competing against a biological man without having any idea.
One of them got a fractured skull.
You know, it's like, that's when I would realize, like, oh, this is just a cult.
This isn't the left that I grew up with.
You know, I grew up with parents that were hippies.
And so like my whole life I was left-wing.
I felt like that was the only way to be.
But when you see the left allowing this bizarre loophole where perverts can pretend to be women, compete with women, fight with women, beat them up, be in their locker rooms, walk around naked with their dick hanging out.
No one can say anything.
Like, how did they switch?
How did they flip it on its head that?
Like, at any other time in history, if a man had a penis was walking through a young girl's locker room, you'd be in real fucking trouble.
Rightly so.
Because that's not a thing that you should want to do.
That's a weird thing to want to walk around naked with your dick hanging out in front of a bunch of women.
But like another thing Gavin was pointing out, he showed me this New York Times, or not New York Times, this Time magazine cover from like a couple months ago.
And it was all about how tomboys are going extinct.
But it was this poor person who decided they wanted a P standing up.
That was all they wanted from this fake dick.
So they have these enormous scars on their leg where they take a giant chunk of flesh out of your thigh and roll it up and make a penis out of it.
And they had to do it to both legs for some reason.
Maybe one of them didn't work real well.
But how old was this person?
They sounded young.
They didn't show their face.
You know, it's fucking insane because a lot of these people, unfortunately, are autistic.
And then there's this other factor when you give them testosterone, it does alleviate anxiety because all of a sudden, you know, you have this new hormone in abundance in your system.
And you feel different.
You feel better.
You feel more confident, which is like the same way men feel when they have more testosterone.
It's like, then all of a sudden you're like, oh, this is who I was all along.
Like, no, no, no.
You're taking a fucking compound that's forcing your body to change.
Like, this is not who you were.
You're not affirming your identity.
You're doing something that's altering your hormonal structure and turning you into a man.
Like, it might feel good, but this is not like your true self.
This is crazy.
Like, I'm not saying you shouldn't be able to do it.
If you want to do it, if you're a woman and you want to take testosterone and be a man or be more manly, I feel like I don't know if it's the best decision for you, but I'm not you.
And I believe in freedom.
I believe in 100% human freedom as long as you're not hurting other people.
My beef with it is like it translated into them invading women's spaces.
And, you know, that's crazy.
That's crazy because you leave the loophole for perverts.
There could be a lot of them that legitimately trans people that feel like they are in the wrong body and they want to live their life as a woman.
And when they live their life as a woman, they feel healthier.
They feel better.
They're happier.
And also crazy people.
And if you don't have a way of determining who is just a pervert who just wants to hang out in the women's locker room and show everybody his dick, and who is a legitimate person with gender dysphoria.
And that's the other thing that Tucker had a really good point about this.
He said if someone has anorexia, you don't tell them, yeah, you're fat.
Yeah, you're fat.
You're right.
You're correct.
Even though you look like a skeleton, you need to lose weight.
No, you tell them you're mentally ill.
This is incorrect.
You're not overweight.
In fact, you have body dysmorphia.
You can't see what you really look like, which we know is a real condition.
Like, it's a real condition with anorexia.
It's even a real condition with bodybuilders.
It's a real condition.
A real condition when people get plastic surgery, where they get crazy lips and crazy cheeks, and they can't see it.
And they can't see it because it's a mental illness.
It's the same kind of thing.
The human mind is incredibly fragile.
That's why Jolly West was fascinated with trying all these MK Ultra techniques and different compounds on people's brains because human people can be manipulated very easily, shockingly easily.
Not all of us, right?
Like you and me are probably pretty skeptical.
There's a lot of skeptical people out there, but there's a bunch of people that are not skeptical at all.
They're super gullible.
And when an ideology forms, they step in line And they follow that ideology verbatim to the line.
They'll repeat the things that they're supposed to say to the line because they think that's what they're supposed to do in order to be in the good graces of this community that they find themselves in.
It's a fucking cult.
And there's a shit ton of cults.
It's not just the Moonies.
It's not just, you know, whatever, fill in the blank.
It's all sorts of political ideologies.
It's MAGA.
It's the far left.
It's the people that are cheering for this guy in New York City that's a communist.
Nobody wants to be a Republican mayor of New York City because they know they can't win.
Oh, he's way to the left.
Yeah.
And he's young, and he's energetic, and he's saying all the right things for all these kids that are in the streets that are protesting, you know, that think they want to make the world a better place, which, hey, I would have been doing it with you if I was 20.
It's all the same thing, man.
It's all the same thing.
You can get indoctrinated into a particular way of thinking without being objective about what's actually going on.
You know, all these people that are like just running through the street now saying free Iran.
Like, yeah, free Iran from a dictatorship.
Absolutely.
But if you're saying, like, wear scarves over your head and being forced to do what the Iranian government wants you to do and live like they live over there, no, they don't live free.
Like, they assassinated the fucking Olympic gold medalist in Russia, in wrestling, rather, in Iran, because he was protesting against the government.
They'll take national heroes and kill them openly.
Like, it's not a good place to live.
You know, I'm not saying we should bomb them, but like being in support of Iran, the Iranian people, yeah, for sure.
So this is the story for people that don't know about Iran.
So there was a gentleman who was democratically elected.
I forget his name.
What is his name?
Moga Mat.
I'm going to fuck it up.
So he decided that he was going to nationalize oil in Iran.
And they got him out like that.
They installed the Shah and turned it into an Islamic dictatorship, but they had access to the oil.
So the CIA and the British government and everybody conspired to get rid of this democratically elected guy because Iran at the time was like, women were wearing shorts or skirts rather, walking down the street.
After considering military action, Britain opted for a coup d'etat.
President Harry Truman rejected the idea, but when Dwight Eisenhower took over the White House, he ordered the CIA to embark on one of its first covert operations against a foreign government.
And Iran's been fucked ever since.
I mean, we've been doing stuff like that.
Not we, not you and I, not me and Danny Jones.
We're going to say.
But the United States government, especially the intelligence agencies in the days before they assassinated Kennedy, they were doing all kinds of wild shit.
The idea was you were trying to be a good Muslim, a pure Muslim.
You were trying to avoid impure thoughts, no alcohol, all these different things.
And they twisted that around with jihadists through the CIA and Osama bin Laden and the Mujahideen to fight off the Soviet Union when the Soviet Union occupied Afghanistan.
The other one is declared a jihad against the infant.
Scroll back down again.
A Struggle or fight against the enemies of Islam.
So it's two things.
But they made it, you know.
Yeah.
They did a lot of mind fucking to those people, and they put them on a war that they couldn't win again to try to do the same thing that they were doing with the rocket program, with everything else.
That part of the world is just like, how much of it has to do with the fact that we've been occupying that part of the world for so long and like going out there, killing all the bad guys, and then the kids seeing their families being slaughtered.
And then like, okay, we're going to eliminate terrorism.
Let's take out these bad guys.
But then the kids grow up and you realize it's just the Hydra.
You know, because he was saying these things when no one even knew what he was saying, you know, and he was putting it into comedy.
You know, like people then were not nearly as aware of the manipulation of money in power.
They really thought, a lot of people thought, that the will of the people, you know, the president, we got to get a good president in there that's looking out for us.
And they didn't really understand that it's all being bought and paid by special interest groups, large corporations, huge donors.
And that when the guy gets in there, he's just representing the same thing no matter what.
The amount of reading and insight and learning that that guy was, a lot of those dudes were able to do back then pre-internet is astonishing.
And to be able to like internalize and process those ideas and rework them with draft after draft and refine it into like the most perfect way to communicate it to people to where it lands, you know, it's just, it's fucking crazy.
And in today's day and age, it's almost like you would think it would be easier with all of the access to information, but it seems like it might even be harder because there's just too much information.
Like last night, listening to you talk was fucking incredible, dude.
Like listening to how you were at the end doing the Q ⁇ A with the crowd, you're like, ah, I ran out of jokes.
Who wants to ask me questions?
And like you were just on another gear, dude.
It's like you're so high octane and you're so like up to speed with everything that's happening around the world at all times.
It's it's mind-blowing to me how you're able to do this stuff, how you're able to stay up and do comedy late, do podcasts every day and be like up to speed with all the news and like have like thought out, like thought through a lot of these things that just happened yesterday.
And then the tricky thing is taking those opinions and trying to make them funny, you know, trying to like put it in a way that's going to be hilarious on stage.
My thing about the Diddy thing is like, I don't really give a fuck.
These people are all, they're of age.
They're over, they're like 18 years old.
And is it shitty what he's doing trying to like use people and leverage them and to do these weird sexual things and like sick shit?
Just the most sick shit you could possibly think of.
But like the way I look at it is these people are using this Diddy stuff.
All it does is like take away from the real child trafficking that's going on with like underage kids.
Right.
There's like what 300,000 something like missing kids like talking about Diddy and his oil parties with these 18 year olds.
Like do I think it's good?
No.
I want to beat up their dad, but other than that, I don't really give a fuck if there's like 18 to 19 year olds that are doing this stuff as long as they're not being like actually like physically raped.
But I mean, it seems like what's going on is just like this weird cultish thing where they slowly get creep closer and closer and closer to this thing.
And this is what Kurt Metzger called a long time ago.
As soon as he saw that it was Comey's daughter, he was like, oh, he's going to walk.
Trust me, he's going to walk.
There's a bunch of high-profile people that are connected to this.
They're covering it all up.
If he goes down, they go down.
So he's not going to go down.
So that's the thing.
If he really did have really wealthy, high-profile people at his parties, which we know he did, Diddy prosecutors abandoned multiple allegations against rapper days before trials end.
Hey, he says, hey, remember I called it?
This is Kurt Metzger on Twitter.
Because James Comey's daughter is the prosecutor.
Remember how well she swept up on the Gislane trail?
Was reviewing tens of thousands of videos the wealthy financier with children or child porn.
The comment made to reporters of the White House days after a similar remark to a stranger with a hidden camera raised the stakes for President Donald Trump's administration to prove it has in its possession previously unseen compelling documents or just Bombay Ran.
Like you would, I would think just Trump's demeanor, his MO towards other countries, like if we're the ones funding them, giving them all this money and they're trying to fight a war, like typically he would be putting his boot on their neck, like, listen, you motherfucker, like he's talking shit, right?
Like you have to do what I want you to do.
And it just seems like, and now I think it just came out a couple days ago that they're trying to prosecute Netanyahu, right?
And then Trump's helping with it, I think, trying to help him, Netanyahu, and that, and that whole rigmarole.
So here's the thing that happens with rich, powerful people.
They can't go anywhere.
If you're like, say, a Jeff Bezos type or someone who's like an Elon Musk type, and I'm not accusing them of anything.
I'm not saying, I'm just saying at that caliber of celebrity and that caliber of prominence, you can't go anywhere.
If you're Bill Clinton back in the 80s or the 90s, whatever it was, you can't go party.
Everybody knows who you are.
You've got to be protected, right?
But you want these experiences.
And so you have these guys, like a Jeffrey Epstein type guy, who works with the elite of the elite clientele.
It's all movie stars, big-time politicians, world leaders, scientists, Nobel Prize winners, and they all meet together and have fascinating conversations and cocktails, and there's beautiful girls everywhere.
Of course.
What a great idea.
And if you're naive and you don't understand honeypots.
There's more footage of Trump with Epstein than anybody.
Are you kidding me?
He's partying with him here.
Like, of course he's compromised.
And then my dad's like, it's fucking Clinton, bro.
It's like, it's only Bill Clinton.
Look, he's the only one on the Epstein files.
Of course, we know he's a pervert, all this stuff.
But like, and then you have, so the funny thing is, both sides will use their little batch of evidence to support their idea and ignore the opposite, right?
So like the lady, the girl we were just talking about, Virginia, she was literally on video saying that all this shit about Bill Clinton on the jet, going to the island, hanging out with Trump and all this stuff.
And the right-wing people, like people I know, my parents and like older folks I know in Florida will say, you know, she came out.
Thank you for exposing Bill Clinton for being a pedo and doing all this stuff.
And Virginia Gouffre, after this happened, she's like, you guys didn't listen to the whole fucking tape.
She's like, I was telling you that Trump was at the penthouse three days a week and visiting him, but you guys don't want to hear that.
And it's like, you know, it's just this weird thing.
Like if you do the math, there's got to be, it's got to be so many high-level, powerful people that are somehow compromised.
And do I think, do I think like Clinton and these guys are pedoes?
No, I don't think that at all.
But if you were Jeffrey Epstein, you would, I think it's super plausible to assume that he would try to trick them with like a girl who looks old, right?
Who is possibly like on the borderline of being 18.
And you say, oh yeah, this girl, she's 18, 19, 20, whatever.
Meanwhile, she's like 17 and they had no idea and they have video footage.
And in like a court of law, if I'm the judge, I'm going to let them like, of course, they fucking lied to him.
And this is not like some young girl, obviously.
But they lied.
But like in the court of public opinion, you're never going to win in that case, right?
So she was responsible for like, because she was like, this is insane.
Like, what's going on here?
And then there was the sheriff that had arrested him, said that I was told he was intelligence.
And I mean, you got to think, man, if a guy like that is running these kind of parties with all these rich and powerful people, how many different worldwide decisions can be manipulated because of these people and the compromises you have on them?
It's really a brilliant thing to do from an intelligence perspective.
And like this, the way that the world is shaping out now and this like rise of Jew hate online is, and I think a lot of it's bots, you know, I think, I think it's coming from every angle.
You know, I think it's probably a lot of, a lot of propaganda and bots coming from Iran, coming from Israel, Saudi, who knows where it's all coming from.
It's just such a confusing crock of shit on the internet.
But like, you know, on one hand, they were able to pull off some incredible fucking operations.
And, you know, on the other hand, we get mad.
Now that it gets exposed, we get mad that they have their hooks in us and the people that are in power, whatever the politicians are, the puppets, just like bend the knee to whatever they're doing.
And it gets exposed when people like Tucker did that interview with Ted Cruz and he had him on his heels the whole time.
That was incredible.
That was a fucking biblical fucking interview with Ted Cruz.
And that really like pulled the mask off because like if that guy's, if that guy is explaining his, his position on Israel being in Congress, and that's his number one thing that made him want to be a Congressman, it's like, what are all these other people doing then?
Like, if there's all this money, and you can see the receipts, how much money they're being given by these lobbies.
That's why people that are on social media all day, they're poisoned.
There was some study recently.
I think it was Columbia.
I forget what university, but they paid people to stay off social media for a certain amount of time.
And they said that the results were superior to therapy.
See if we can find that.
So I think a large percentage of the mental illness that we have in this country is greatly accentuated by social media.
I think people that are on it all day, I think it's extremely addictive.
I think the conflict raises your whole anxiety that you have about conflict in society.
Stanford paid 35,000 people to find out if quitting Instagram made you happier.
Yeah, this is it.
And so what was the results?
Landmark study on digital well-being.
Ran two parallel experiments with Facebook and Instagram as a perspective focal pattern, platform rather.
For each focal platform, Meta grew a stratified random sample of users who were in the U.S. who were age 18 or older, had logged in at least once a month, or at least once in the past month.
From August 31st to September 12th, Meta plays survey invitations.
At the top of these users' focal platform news feeds, study explains, on Facebook, a total of 10.6 million users were invited to the study.
673,388 clicked the invitation, and 43,249 were willing to deactivate, consented to participate, and completed the enrollment survey.
Of these, 19,857 completed the baseline survey, could be linked to the platform data, and had at least 15 minutes of baseline use per day.
So what was the results?
Modest but meaningful emotional gains.
Findings were statistically significant, although modest in scale.
Facebook deactivation led, well, Facebook is like a bunch of old people complaining about their neighborhood, led to a 0.060 standard deviation improvement.
That's not much.
While Instagram deactivation yielded a 0.041 improvement, these gains represent approximately 15 to 22% of the benefits typically seen with established psychological interventions such as cognitive behavior therapy or mindfulness-based interventions.
So that's not much.
That's 22% of the benefits.
So it's a mild improvement.
Look at this, though.
The improvements weren't equally distributed.
Adults over 35 saw the most substantial benefit from leaving Facebook, whereas young women under 25 experienced the most emotional uplift from an Instagram break.
Women are getting fucked by that because they're constantly comparing themselves to girls that are digitally altered and using filters and fucks through your self-esteem.
I just think overall, it's not good for us.
And there's a large percentage of our society is addicted to it.
Like your phone and the iPad and all this stuff is like they're dopamine slot machines.
And the way they fuck up your circadian rhythm, like when you're when you're laying in bed at night scrolling and how that blue light in the phone just like pumps your brain full of energy and you can't put it down.
You're just addicted.
Like every scroll is like another hit of the crackpipe, you know?
And that's why I like these like these new tech technical computers and these different apps that are coming out that are like trying to be anti-technology.
They're trying to make healthier computers and healthier phones.
Because like, so I got introduced to those guys when I started learning about all this circadian rhythm stuff and how all these devices hijack your dopamine system and all this stuff.
And there's like, hey, there's these guys that they're working on this new technology that's like anti big tech mind control, all the apps and everything like that with all the colors and all the, you know, everything that just like fucks with your brain and your eyes.
And I was like, that's interesting.
They're going in the opposite direction of normal tech and like Apple and all these things.
So I hit them up and they sent me one and I was just like fucking blown away.
I thought it was super cool.
I could sit outside because I like to, I like to go outside like first thing in the morning when the sun's rising and spend at least like two or three hours like during the beginning of the day because I feel it just like charges me up for the day.
I feel better when I'm outside, especially in Florida.
The sun's really good.
And so I'll go out there and I'll read on this thing.
I can't read on anything else.
My phone or like a computer screen, there's so much glare.
It's great because if I'm reading shit, which I typically do in the morning and at night, I don't stay up all night.
It encourages me to go outside more because typically when I'm trying to absorb stuff or listen to podcasts or make notes or read books, I can do it on that.
And it works better outside.
So it just makes me want to go outside more, which I feel better when I'm outside more.
I don't think the innovation of all this new technology now that it's like exponentially taking off with AI is going to lead us to a good place, man.
I think that, you know, I've had philosophers and people explain to me how the advancement of the technological human mind and the analytical mind has equally equated with the atrophy of the psychic mind.
And when you listen to people like Paul Rosalie talking about spending a lot of time in the Amazon and like going through the jungle, how it like awakens these deeper senses that you have inside of us.
And like it makes me wonder, like 5,000 years ago, before we had the ability to offload our memories onto phones and computers and before we even had the fucking written word and were able to make notes and stuff, we probably had like way better memory.
We possibly likely had like A telepathic way of communicating back then, like way, way long ago, before we had, like, before we started letting technology take over for what we do, like, even for our like mundane tasks now, which has reached the pinnacle of LLMs, like telling us, telling us, like, how to fucking write an email.
Right, well, we for sure don't remember phone numbers anymore.
And when I was a kid, I kept like 15 phone numbers in my head.
Now I have zero.
I have like maybe one or two phone numbers I can remember.
Everybody just relies on their phone.
There's so many people that can't even make their way around town without their navigation system.
Completely forgot how the streets connect.
You know, there's a lot of digital atrophy or human atrophy that's being caused by the interface with the digital world.
And it's only going to get worse.
I mean, there was a study recently on ChatGPT users and how less there how see if you can find it.
It was a study on young people and ubiquitous use of ChatGPT, like how many of them are using it and how much effect it has on their ability to form their own thoughts and see through things.
They're just relying on this thing to answer the questions for them without pondering the question themselves and actually learning things.
Study divided 54 subjects, 18 to 39-year-olds from the Boston area, into three groups and asked them to write several SAT essays using OpenAI's ChatGPT, Google search engine, and nothing at all, respectively.
Researchers used an EEG to record the writer's brain activity across 32 regions and found that of the three groups, ChatGPT users had the lowest brain engagement and consistently underperformed at neuro, linguistic, and behavioral levels.
Over the course of several months, ChatGPT users got lazier with each subsequent essay, often resorting to copy and paste by the end of the study.
Well, there's definitely going to be people that worship artificial intelligence as a new God.
That's already been speculated.
That's for sure going to be a thing.
And it might actually be that.
It might be that's what God is.
Like, that's how we make him.
We make God forms himself through us.
Like, the way God creates us, he instills us with this insatiable need for technological innovation until ultimately, if they don't blow themselves up, they achieve artificial intelligence, which then becomes sentient, which then makes better and better versions of itself.
And as you scale out, what's the ultimate version of that?
This is, here, I'll send you the Twitter thing, Jamie.
Did you find it already?
Okay, here's Webb Telescope uncovers secrets of dark matter.
Yeah, that's one of them, but I'll show you what this is.
Because what this is is essentially that just the galaxies that they've shown, it makes up for the background micro or whatever the microwave radiation is that they associated with the Big Bang.
Yeah, no, I saw the Twitter post and there's people going after each other, like rabid cats and dogs about it, whether it was real or whether it was fake.
A new paper shows that the cosmic microwave background radiation can be explained entirely by the energy of recently discovered early mature galaxies.
Massive galaxies the James Webb Space Telescope discovered while crushing, or excuse me, discovered which crushed the existing models of galaxy formation because they formed much earlier than astrophysicists thought possible.
But now these EMGs turn out to account for the entire energy density of the cosmic microwave background radiation, which was believed to be a snapshot of the first light emitted after the Big Bang when the universe was 379,000 years old.
The variations in the CMB were believed to be relics of quantum fluctuations in the dense plasma of the Big Bang.
If these new findings are accepted and there's no reason not to accept them, then all the following flagship findings of cosmology are thrown into question.
Big Bang theory, foundational cosmological model undermined, cosmic inflation, losses, observation, loses rather, observational justification, ACDM model, I don't know what that is, key parameters become unreliable.
So all this stuff, dark energy inferred from the CMB may be mischaracterized, dark matter density, current estimates may be invalid.
And I'm sure the people that have been preaching or that have been rather talking and teaching people about the Big Bang and writing books, they're going to fight back tooth and nail because they don't want to be wrong.
But this James Webb telescope, at the very least, has shown us mature galaxies that shouldn't have been able to be formed.
This post claims CMB can be explained entirely by EMGs, implying ability, not probability, that EMGs turn out to account for the entire energy of the CMB radiation.
But the paper says EMGs may account for anywhere between 1.4% and 100%.
So they might account for 100%, but they do account for...
Yes.
They might account for 100%.
Okay.
Right.
Either way, they're learning things, and they still have a very limited ability to observe, right?
So the James Webb telescope is so much better than the Hubble, so much better than anything else they've launched before.
So they're finding new things out, but it's still limited in its capacity to see the universe.
It can't see everything yet.
So they'll probably have an even better one that they'll launch, and that will show us even more that we didn't know.
And we're operating on a limited amount of data, and we're operating with this conviction that they're 100% correct about these timelines.
And just these mature galaxies that existed where they shouldn't exist is enough to know that we don't know everything.
And then this whole dark matter, dark energy thing, it's like, what is it?
Well, we figured out that dark matter actually is mass, right?
And has gravitational effects.
Like they were, I forget who it was, but they were observing galaxies and they were looking at the spin rate of the galaxies and they found out that the center of the galaxy, it should be spinning faster than the outer rim of it, right?
But they found out that the spin rate is identical, which means that what they theorized is that dark matter, the mass of the dark matter around the galaxy has lots of mass and it's flattening the spin rate of the galaxies.
Which is interesting because like there's this, have you ever heard of this dude named Rolf Landauer?
He has this theory that if you weighed a hard drive after you put data on it, it would weigh more than when it was empty.
Right.
So, and his theory was that like every single hard drive server farm around the world right now, and if you weighed it, if we had measuring equipment that was sensitive enough and you could find the difference, he thinks that all the data stored would be like a kilogram or less right now.
But the rate of data increase that we accumulate each year right now is like 25%, not equating for exponential growth, the technological singularity and how that's going to ramp up.
So somebody did the math there and said, it was, no, it was Jason Giorgiani who did the math on this.
And he said, if you just keep the rate flat at 25% per year of data increase across the globe, in 340 years, we are going to have the mass of the moon on the surface of the earth in data stored on hard drives.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So like, and the way he like lays this all out, I'll try to do my best, is that if you look at the laws of thermodynamics, like the two laws, one that energy can never be created or destroyed, and the other one, like entropy always increases over time.
Entropy, meaning disorder.
It never goes down over time.
Like hence the heat death of the universe will eventually happen.
And so E equals MC squared, energy and mass are interconvertible.
And then there was this other dude, Claude Shannon, who came up with the theory that data transmission with binary bits, ones and zeros.
So if computers are bound by, tell me if I'm losing.
If computers are bound by the laws of entropy and hard drives are bound by the laws of entropy, that means when a computer is blank, it's very low entropy because it's all ones or it's all zeros.
When you add data, when you add a podcast to it, it goes one zero, one, zero, one, zero.
It's chaotic.
Just from a pure physical perspective, it's high entropy.
So what happens when you erase that hard drive?
You have to, the energy has to go, has to leave.
If it's mass on the hard drive, theoretically, if this guy's right, if Rolf Landauer is right, that data on the hard drive is mass, when you erase that, it has to go to energy outside of the hard drive, right?
So he says, but if you crack open a hard drive, you can't see that mass, right?
It's invisible.
It's electromagnetically indetectable.
So he says, what other kind of mass do we know of that's electromagnetically indetectable?
He said, it's dark matter.
So if mass is the same thing as information stored on a hard drive, that would mean not only is mass and energy interchangeable, but mass, energy, and information are interchangeable.
Right?
So if dark matter is mass, you could then say that dark matter is a computational cloud of ones and zeros.
And our consciousness is an interface to that that gives it meaning.
The same way a computer screen gives meaning to all the ones and zeros on the hard drive.
Yeah, the only reason consciousness is fundamental to an information processing system.
So instead of building up to, like what physicists, what people try to do is build up to consciousness from dead atoms, protons and neutrons, right?
How do you get to consciousness from that?
But if you think of this as like a computational cloud of ones and zeros and mass does equal information, well, that just means that our consciousness is a way to interface and give this simulation meaning.
And funny enough, that theory really Reconciles well with shit like parapsychology and like Rupert Sheldrake's morphic resonance, like when you solve one problem in one part of the world and then like somebody breaks a world record in this country and then five years, you know, a year later, five other people hit that same world record.
It's like conserving energy, the processing system conserving energy.
What was the supposed discovery about the computational code?
What did it say?
Are we living in a computer simulation?
Yeah, this is James Gates.
Theoretical physicist at the University of Maryland.
Auto-correcting codes.
Click on that, Jamie?
Scientific American article.
Oh, I just write it right from there, I guess.
Explored mathematical structure of string theory specifically in the context of supersymmetry and has found what he describes as error-correcting codes embedded within the equations.
These codes are mathematical objects similar to those used in computer science for error detection and correction, such as in data transmission.
While these findings are intriguing, it's important to note that they are not literal computer code, but rather mathematical structures that share similarities with coding theory.
Yeah, it's important to learn that, but that's fucking crazy.
Yeah, I had this, I don't wanna say who she is, but this lady who had this amazing book on the Greek weapons and poisons that they used to use for war.
They used to drop scorpions over, Like they used to light pigs on fire and send them towards elephants to try to get the elephants to run away and throw bags of scorpions on people.
Yeah, you have to have all because there are some people that are, they're self-taught.
They've essentially just read shit tons of books and they're brilliant people.
And just because they're not classically educated, it doesn't mean they're incorrect.
And there's only one way to find that out.
Guys like Randall Carlson, he's a builder, okay?
But the knowledge that he has about the impact theory, the Younger Dryas impact theory, and what probably ended the ice age and shaped a great part of North America and how you could see it from space.
And you can see when they look at the satellite imagery, it literally looks like things have been washed away.
It looks like massive water erosion.
Like you can see the ripples on the ground that are akin to what it looks like when the tide pulls back on the sand on a beach.
It all makes sense.
And he knows so much about the actual science behind it.
And he was talking about this a long time ago.
I met him in Georgia, in Atlanta.
That's where he's from.
I met him in like 2003 or something like that, 2002, 2000.
He was telling me about it back then.
But back then, they didn't have the core samples that showed that there was significant impact evidence.
That was around, I think it was 11,800 years ago, and then again, somewhere around 10,000 plus years ago.
So I think we've been hit multiple times.
And I think he's 100% right about that.
And I think Graham Hancock is 100% onto something with all this ancient apocalypse stuff.
And the pushback against him is insane.
They throw every terrible phrase at him they possibly can.
Every pejorative, racist, white supremacist, all these crazy things.
No, I think he had a lot of interesting, legitimate things to say about ancient Greeks and stuff like that.
But when we got to this stuff, it was just like, where did that fucking dude I was talking to 30 minutes ago go?
He was just like, he was looking at this and then all reason just flew out the window.
He was like, what do you mean they couldn't do this?
They stick a stone in there, they spin it around like this, and then you can get this.
It's really easily.
How dare you say that the dynastic Egyptians weren't able to create these vases?
I'm like, and I, you know, I was like proposing other theories that like, you know, Chris Dunn's, Jeffrey Drum's theories and wanted absolutely nothing to do with it.
If Christopher Dunn had been teaching this in the 1800s and people had followed those theories and built upon them and this was academic, like in universities, this was Accepted, and this was what they were teaching, and they were studying this, then he would be saying that.
They would all be saying that.
There's ample evidence that he's got a good point.
That Christopher Dunn, the model that he uses when he's describing how he thinks that the Great Pyramid of Giza was a power plant, is fascinating.
The number, when he's talking about the ratios that you would need for the width of the walls, the surfaces, the way the things are made, they would all work.
He's an engineer.
He's not a moron.
He knows what he's talking about.
If this guy was teaching this stuff a long time ago and it was accepted by universities, that would be what we're talking about today.
We'd be speculating how they did it and what they were doing and what they were doing it for.
And if we had known in the 1800s that we regularly travel into a comet storm and that it happens, I think it's every June and November.
We pass through the, you know, and we see it in the sky.
We see meteor showers.
You know, you see, oh, look at the sky.
Look at all the shooting stars.
We're in a fucking shooting gallery.
And occasionally one of those slams into the earth.
And when that stuff happens, we're fucked.
And it's super likely that that happened multiple times during human history.
And it's super likely that that's why there's all these structures that nobody can explain that are somehow or another predate modern civilization.
Like Gobekli Tepe.
That fucked them all up.
Because before Gobekli Tepe, they had this 6,000-year model.
Mesopotamia, Sumer, that's where it all started.
Now they're like, well, maybe it's Turkey.
Maybe Turkey was the birthplace.
I mean, Jimmy Corsetti's been talking about this a lot.
Not that I would act like them or condone the way they act, but when you spend your life, Flint, for example, I think his parents were archaeologists.
They named him Flint because of archaeology.
And you spent your whole life mucking through these different places, excavating shit, digging up rocks or whatever he was doing, and no one ever paid attention to you.
And then you have Graham Hancock come in, who is like personally fascinated by these things and dedicating his life to writing and researching on his own, but not accredited academically.
You can see like how those guys would, how those academic guys would be like super salty of somebody like him.
We don't even know who really built the Aztec temples.
I was reading about Tenochet Lan.
They found it.
The Aztecs found that there.
And they don't even know who built it.
There's a bunch of those things.
A previous civilization existed in the same place, fascinating discoveries, figured out how to do agriculture, figured out how to make grids and cities and make these incredible stone structures that are cosmologically connected somehow.
And then they went away.
All over the world.
All over the world.
There's like people reinvent civilization, the places where these ancient structures exist and even build upon them.
I think there's probably so much shit that people were able to do in antiquity and way before that that would seem like magic to us today.
Like kind of like getting back to what we were talking about with our senses that we don't really have today that probably have atrophied over millennia.
You would have no idea you're sitting there bathing in somebody's fart.
Right.
So like, and so like dogs, dogs and cats, when they go into weird houses and they notice like some sort of weird energy, you know, people describe energy in a house, like this, this feels off.
Like, what is that?
Like, is there something that really is there that we just don't have the organs anymore to detect?
Or something in our brain that has atrophied over thousands of years that have stopped us being able to detect this stuff?
And, you know, one of the things that I've been like really interested in lately is this, I mean, people talk about this ability to like download information like in the UFO world.
You know, like people talk about, oh, I got this from a download or something like that.
I talk about like, I have an antenna.
I can connect to something.
But like for me, like that connected, when I first heard about people talking about that, I always thought that that was like the muse, you know, like you have this sort of antenna in your head that connects you to creativity and gives you the ability to just create shit out of thin air, you know?
And I feel like over with people I've observed over my lifetime, I feel like that peaks at an early age, right?
Before you get older and before you start the burden of the responsibilities of life and all these mundane things in your life start to compile on and you trade your dreams for securities, that spark starts to go away, you know?
And like that could easily be described as something magical if it was way more powerful thousands of years ago.
Like I really noticed this the other day.
So I was, the other day I was hanging out with Kirk, the lead guitarist for Metallica.
And he was, for some reason, I don't know why, but he likes my show.
The dude's like, you know, he's in his 60s, like early 60s, and he's fucking obsessed with all of these topics that you cover, I cover, a lot of people cover.
And he's like, at the same time, he's, the dude has like got this crazy spark where he's so inspired to do shit and like still creating new music and like coming up with new riffs and wanting to do more things where like I've never met a dude like that who's had so much success,
toured everywhere for the last 40 years, being the number one metal band in the world, basically, and still like wanting to learn stuff.
The dude is trying to translate ancient Greek music for his guitar and trying to figure out how to play this stuff.
He can't figure it out.
And he was telling me, he's like, dude, I think this wasn't recreational.
He's like, I think this music was magical.
He's like, I think they were performing magic.
He thinks it was like religious medical rites they were performing with music.
It wasn't supposed to be entertainment back in the day.
You know, the psychedelic experience dances to this song.
When you're lying there with your eyes closed.
That's wild.
And the whole time, it's like synchronized together.
And the whole time it's doing it, it's like a method for showing you more things.
And as you go through it with the music, there's something comforting in the pattern of the music and the way it dances to the music that allows you to relax and unveils more and more of itself.
When I went to their concert in Tampa the other day, and I was walking, it made me regret not going to more concerts when I was younger, but being in that stadium, the Buck Stadium, where there was 90,000 people, every seat in that arena was full.
unidentified
And you hear, don't do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do.
Dude, being there with 90,000 people, the light, the thundering electric guitars, and the fire, the pyrotechnics, and all those people like focusing, like all 90,000 people, every atom in their body is vibrating at the same frequency.
Well, they did exactly the same things the Nixon administration did to psychedelics in this country.
They're like, oh, this is a problem.
When they were turning everything Schedule I to try to stop the anti-war movement and the civil rights movement, that's the exact same thing.
Like governments, when they get to a certain position of power, they're not representing the people anymore.
Now they're the fucking jack-booted thugs that tell you what you can and can't do based on how inconvenient it is for you to be doing that for them running things.
I had this dude on my show, speaking of the academic, the strife between the academics and the self-taught online people, influencers, whatever you want to call them.
This dude was, he was kicked out of his university for, first of all, he wrote a dissertation on ancient pharmacy, the Roman pharmacy and Greek pharmacy.
And it was a dissertation based on this guy named Galen, who was like the surgeon general of ancient Rome.
And he had a chapter in his dissertation, his PhD dissertation, about recreational drugs in Rome.
And the head of the department reviewed his dissertation and said, everything looks great.
Delete the section on recreational drugs in ancient Rome.
So he's like, okay, why?
They're like, because the Romans wouldn't do such a thing.
So he's like, okay.
He deleted it and then submitted it, got his PhD, and then wrote a book based on that part of the dissertation that he left out, which the book was called The Chemical Muse.
And I learned about this from Hamilton Morris.
He did a podcast with the dude first.
And I read that book.
And, you know, he was basically making the case that drugs were ubiquitous in antiquity during the Roman times.
Like, they were being used for everything because people were not dying from old age.
They were dying from war, hand-to-hand combat, famine, plague.
And there was a law in ancient Rome that he said there was only one law when it came to using drugs.
And that was that you were not allowed to kill people with drugs.
You were not allowed to murder people, which is why Marcus Aurelius was using this drug compound called a Theriac.
And the Theriac was a concoction of like 11 different North African vipers, their flesh and their venom, combined with opium and all kinds of like bodily fluids.
And he was using this as like a performance-enhancing drug.
Whoa.
Because people were trying to assassinate him with poisons.
That's how they assassinated people.
They were using scorpions, poisons, arrows, all different kinds of weird things to sneak in and kill him.
So he was drinking this theriac to build up his immune system against the vitamin, against the venoms.
And dude, this dude Galen, who wrote about this shit, he was talking about giving, he was Marcus Aurelius' physician.
And he was like, Marcus Aurelius, he's like, it's getting ridiculous.
And so Galen, the physician, the surgeon general of the Roman Empire under Marcus Aurelius and Nero, I think, basically equates to 10% of all the Greek literature from antiquity.
10% of it is medical.
And this dude that wrote this dissertation, based it all off Galen, is talking about all these drug compounds that are used in all the literature.
So what he does is he looks at all the ancient literature from Homer to, you know, like 800, to like the time that Beowulf was written, basically, AD.
And he's like finding all of this evidence of crazy drug use.
And he has this crazy theory also that, I don't know if it's crazy.
I don't know.
The problem like with talking to people like them, like him, is that I don't know ancient Greek.
I can't read it.
And I've tried to have like four or five academics come on the show to like refute him, but they won't come on with him.
They all refuse to debate him, except for one guy.
Because the mushrooms would come out of the ground, and they thought the rain was God coming on the earth, and that's where, you know, that's what gave life to the earth.
And then they would take these mushrooms and see God.
It was, well, so to be clear, in antiquity, if you look it up on the thesaurus, the actual like Greek thesaurus, it's called the TLG, and you look up the word Christ, there's over 200,000 or more uses of the word Christ.
And there's like 350 times where it's used in the context of drugs before Jesus Christ is ever written about.
Whoa.
And what he's basically claiming is that there's like, it's the process of applying something.
Like there's different contexts.
Like there's a guy who like Christed himself in fucking cow shit.
There's people who are Christing ships with plaster to make them more waterproof.
But there's a vast majority of literature, including Galen, who writes about Christing using drugs.
And he's coming up with this controversial theory, which is, you know, super fucking controversial, that Christ was like, if you think of the word Christ, a person can be a Christer, like a Christ.
Like think of Bob the Builder.
He's a builder.
He builds shit.
Christ was, they called him Jesus the Christ.
So he thinks Christ was somebody who was involved with drugs, taking drugs, giving people drugs.
And I was telling him, if Satan is drugs, if I can smoke marijuana and it's prescribed by a doctor, is it still Satan?
He goes, no, don't play those games with me.
And I'm like, well, how come every time I get really, really fucking bombed, I think about things like spending more times with my kids and things like good things?
And this is a part of this whole ritual of, you know, giving in to Christ, giving in to God.
Right.
The idea that it's bad, because some people have bad experiences, man, you could apply that to almost anything.
I think marijuana makes people more compassionate, kinder, more sensitive, but also paranoid.
You could freak out.
If you're riddled with anxiety and you have a hard time controlling that anxiety in your mind and you take a high dose of marijuana, you could freak out.
It's also connected to schizophrenia.
Because I think there's people that have a tendency towards schizophrenia anyway, and then a large dose of marijuana tends to give them psychotic breaks.
There's like real literature.
There's real evidence of that.
So this is like important that if you're a person who thinks that marijuana is overall net positive, which I do, it's important to talk about the negatives, just like everything else.
Like alcohol, food, everything.
There's a lot of different things that if you drink too much water, you'll fucking die.
Okay?
There's a lot of things that aren't good for you under certain circumstances.
But the only way we know how to do it and how not to do it is to do studies.
And when it's illegal and you're terrified, you can go to jail.
Or if you're an academic and you want to study this as your main thing, you just get dismissed.
Like, like, this was the only dude I could get to agree to come sit with him because this guy had a YouTube channel.
He wanted to promote himself and all this stuff.
But like a lot of the academics, I talked to a lot of Harvard philologists to try to come debate this guy.
And like the philologists, like there's a difference between a linguist, which I think Mark Olegar was and a philologist, where the linguists look at the actual complexities of the text itself and the language.
But the philologists, what they do is they're looking for context.
So what they do is they take words and they try to figure out what these specific words meant in certain time periods.
So they take a word, take their time machine back, let's take it back to 200 BC, 100 BC, whatever it is.
And they say, okay, let's just use the example of the word Rio, Christ.
Let's look at all of the corpus of all the fucking literature that existed in the Library of Alexandria.
I've talked to many of them on the phone, and a lot of them say they don't want to give him, I won't name the people, but one of them said that they just don't want to give him the platform or the credibility of being in the same room.
Other people say that it would just take too much time for them to prep for it.
And I just think it's bullshit.
Like I, this is the only way to get to the truth is to hear like a credible person dismantle his argument, right?
So like I have it.
I just keep falling deeper and deeper into this rabbit hole of all this crazy ancient Greek shit.
And like, you know, he's talking about ancient vaccines that they were using.
Like similar to what we're talking about with the theriac, he says that there's text that talks about cutting kids, cutting children, soaking bandages and snake venoms, and wrapping the cut with a snake venom so that the young person would create antibodies because they have more robust immune systems because they're younger.
And they would use the kid's bodily fluid as fucking vaccines to snake bites.
Because everyone was getting bitten by snakes back then.
Of course.
And then they would take drugs too.
I'm sure they would take psychotropic drugs that would, and they would call them death-inducing drugs, where they would have snake venoms.
They would like take snake venom drugs That if you don't have an antidote for it, an antichrist for it, that you would die.
So you have to take this antidote so you don't die from the fucking drug you just drank, right?
These antidotes.
And like he connects this all to Jesus in this elaborate way, where there's Mark 14:53, where Jesus is caught in the Garden of Gethsemane with the naked boy, right?
And then there's a scene of the young boy running away naked, right?
When the Roman SWAT team pulls up on him, and then the little kid runs away.
He goes, oh, I'm not a trafficker.
I'm not a robber, whatever the word lace dash means, means like pirate, trafficker, robber.
And then they take him, and then he's on the cross the next day, and he's like screaming out, like dying of thirst in between two traffickers.
And he's asking, and there's this dude, Nonus, who writes about this scene specifically in ancient Greek, and he talks about them giving him trying to give him the sponge and he's denying the sponge, right?
So the sponge, Nonas, is writing about this, that the sponge is the antidotone to the dipsos, which is the antidote to the North African viper.
But he's refusing to take the antidote.
He's just dying because he took this death inducer at 4 a.m. in the park, in the Garden of Gethsemane.
And now he's just going to let himself die on the cross.
So like, yeah, there's that.
I don't know.
I don't know what to make of any of it.
Of this stuff.
I just, you know, I hear people saying that it's all bullshit.
It's used all throughout Homer, Euripides, all these other authors.
Like, there's, like, again, getting back to the philology stuff, the philologists, they go back in time and they look at the context of all of the literature.
Not just the biblical canon, which is like a narrow lane of ancient literature, right?
But they're looking at the philosophy, the legal texts, the medical texts, everything, and saying, okay, let's take this word, look where it's used in all of these different texts throughout all kinds of professions, and see what the consensus is of what it meant during that time period.
And what he's claiming is that the fucking word Christ meant drugs back then.
Because, like, human beings are not a good source of information, especially back then.
It's just too hard to be accountable.
Why would you be honest?
People make grandiose claims.
They exaggerate.
We see it today.
It's like humans today are the same as humans back then.
We're flawed.
So we know today that our versions of history are deeply biased.
Our versions of world events, our versions of, I mean, if the United States government could write the story about the invasion of Iraq without investigative journalists, right?
What would be the story?
And this is part of the problem.
It's like we don't really know what they were trying to say.
It was an oral history for who knows how long before they ever wrote down the Old Testament.
There's like all kinds of weird secret gospels, secret gospel of Mark that they claim that this dude, Morton Smith, came up with, which was similar to Amon's theories.
But then, you know, people say, oh, that's a forgery.
It's a forgery.
If the secret gospel of Mark's a forgery, he fucking knew Greek really well, and he knew the culture really well and all the cults, you know, and like.
Dude, like, you know, even like the mysteries of the hospitals in ancient Rome, like the temples of Asclepius and doing all those rituals in the temples of Asclepius, using medicine and drugs simultaneously and these venoms and all this stuff is interesting to learn, you know, and especially when you compare that stuff to the biblical stuff, you know, like how much has it been changed?
How much has the meaning been changed?
And like the people, most of the academics who study this stuff are maybe not most of them, but a large majority, a large percentage of them, I think, that I've talked to.
They're religious scholars, scholars of the Bible and Christianity, but they also subscribe to Christianity.
You know, so I'm like, is that like a, it's weird that there's kind of like a built-in bias into this stuff.
Because John Marco Allegro was an ordained minister who, once he became a theologian, a theologist, theologian, rather, once he studied theology, he started to have agnostic thoughts.
And so when he was one of the decipherers of the Dead Sea Scrolls, when he was on the committee, he was agnostic at the time.
So he had already decided through his study of all these different religions that maybe he wouldn't subscribe to any of them and leave an open mind.
So he was the only person on the commission that was deciphering the Dead Sea Scrolls over a period of like 14 million, or 14 years rather.
He studied this stuff.
He was the only one who was agnostic.
And again, his claims are widely dismissed by many, many people.
But you know, you're dealing with if it really goes back that far.
So if he's talking about this term from ancient Sumer, where they are calling it a drug.
They're saying it's a mushroom.
And this is from 5,000 years ago, 6,000 years ago.
You know, you're predating the Bible by a long stretch.
And how old was that?
I mean, if they're right about Turkey and Turkey was the original civilization, like, when is that?
Is that 12,000 years ago?
What is the real date of Egypt?
What is the real date of the original structures of Egypt?
Do they know?
I mean, we're told it's 2,500 BC for the Great Pyramid, but boy, there's a lot of people that don't agree with that, including geologists.
When you get guys like Robert Schock who say like this water erosion is thousands of years of rainfall, last time you had a heavy rainfall in the Nile Valley, you're looking at 9,000 years ago.
So you have thousands of years of rainfall before 9,000 years ago that's going to create this kind of erosion.
And so it's hard to know because everybody wants to be right.
And they all have this date that they've been talking about and writing books about and giving lectures about.
They never want to revise that.
They gatekeep that information until the day.
They never want to have an open mind and say, perhaps there is evidence, of course, that there was a sophisticated civilization there 2,500 BC, but maybe they were a part of a very old civilization.
And this is the Zeptepi thing that Zawi Hawass was totally ignorant of.
And he thought it was just completely bullshit.
And this is the king's list that goes back 30,000 years that they talk about and the way Egyptologists that are conventional thinkers, they think that it's mythology.
They think that's myth.
But, you know, you get to about 2,500 BC, that's all real.
And also, if there was an advanced civilization 11,800 years ago that was able to create Gobekli Tepe, which we know now to be true, what else have we not found?
I think the path that they took involved immense stone structures, cosmology.
They probably didn't have internal combustion engines.
They probably had a completely different kind of technology that we wouldn't even think of because we went in this internal combustion engine, plastic, microchip, electricity.
We went into that direction.
But you could imagine primitive man evolving to create technology that's far different than the way we went.
Do you think we might have cracked that somewhere?
Like in some deep black programs that we could have that, they wouldn't want to unleash that on society because it could like fuck up the economic system or like collapse the world?
I know Jesse Michaels believes that there is gravity technology that they were researching in the 1960s and that they had achieved some sort of breakthrough propulsion system that is probably a lot of what you see when you see these UAPs and these crafts that move in very strange ways.
That makes sense to me.
And again, the idea that they couldn't keep that secret, shut the fuck up.
There's this lady, Catherine Fitz, who's the she was the head of the department of HUD under George Bush.
And they brought her in after the mortgage crisis to figure out how to restabilize the economy and what the banks were doing and all this stuff.
And she was looking at missing money.
And she found that there was like when she applied her knowledge of mathematics and what's going on with the federal budget and where all the money's going, she said the most reasonable explanation, you know, there's like $21 trillion missing from the DOD the day before 9-11, Donald Rumpsfeld.
There's like two to two and a half trillion dollars, whatever it was.
Now that's ballooned to like $21 trillion.
And she thinks that, you know, pull up the spreadsheet, see where that money went.
Oh, it's not on the receipt.
I don't know where it went.
She thinks it went to like black budget shit, like military, black military technology, like anti-gravity.
And she thinks that Mr. Global, whoever that is, the bankers, the central bankers, are literally using all of that money and funneling it into black projects to create a breakaway civilization in case there's like some sort of catastrophe on Earth or something happens.
How the Nazis are controlling UFOs and PSYOPs and controlling the world and, you know, playing the world like it's their fucking docudrama and recreating reality and inventing all this crazy off-world stuff and how Roswell was Soviet Union crashing stuff here.
And basically it's all Nazi black budget stuff, I think is like the main point of that.
I don't think that they're saying it's all that, but they're probably saying, I haven't read all his books, but I think he's saying when he wrote that book, it was probably all Nazis, no aliens.
But now I'm sure his points, his views have evolved on it.
It's like, you know, when you see these reports, whenever I see a story that's in the New York Times where the Pentagon is admitting we have, you know, there's been off-world crafts and all these different things, and you get these David Grush guys that are testifying about that we've recovered crashed vehicles.
But if I was the government and I was working on top secret propulsion systems, the first thing I would do is spread a bunch of fake rumors about UFOs.
And then you have an explanation for why these people are seeing these things in the sky when it's really just your shit that you're flying around.
But yet, if you listen to Jacques Valley and you read any of his books, he's got these stories that people were telling from the 1700s and the 1800s that mirror almost exactly the experiences that people are having today.
That's where it gets weird because, okay, now you're predating any possibility of this being modern technology, you know, that is just hidden and tucked away.
They couldn't have done that in the 1700s.
No way.
They didn't even have airplanes yet, right?
Okay.
So if we admit that, then we have to go, okay, well, what's going on then?
Is there something else here that's here, that's been here forever, like some people think?
Or are we looking at something that's visiting us and keeping an eye on us from somewhere else?
You know, like, have they been here fucking forever?
And like, you know, there's this case, Richard Dolan came in on my show recently and he was telling me, he wrote this new book about all the underwater cases ever documented, underwater UFOs, USOs.
And there's one from like the early 1700s where there was this like ship sailing across the Pacific and this giant glowing orb came out of the ocean.
And these sailors all wrote about it.
How this massive like football stadium size glowing orb came up out of the ocean and like flew away.
And, you know, like if we've, how much of the ocean have we explored?
If you wanted to come here and observe human beings without them being able to see what's going on, that's the best place to hide because no one's going there.
They don't have the capability of going there.
You know, we have submarines, but I mean, what are the submarines?
I mean, if the submarines see things, did they tell us?
We know about the nuclear bases above ground because those guys have come out and talked about it, but like all of the nuclear submarines that are patrolling the oceans at all times, like right off of our coast, off both coasts, like if they're carrying multiple nuclear warheads, I'm sure they're seeing something or they're detecting something there.
Yeah, I think the best evidence that those things have been here forever is probably like ancient stories, biblical story, like aliens and like angels and demon stuff.
Imagine seeing something that's floating, some geometric pattern that's hovering in the sky above your head and emitting light and trying to explain this.
And then also going back and trying to remember exactly what you saw because you're probably freaking the fuck out.
You really do have some sort of an encounter with some orb that's flying in the sky.
And then all the people, the eyewitnesses that were there that saw the thing, and when he brings the police officer to the site of the crash, the officer starts weeping uncontrollably, recounting the story.
Like how many, I don't know how many people know all of the secrets, right?
But if there is a handful of dudes, how do you go about living your life when you're that dude and when you know like shit that can change the face of humanity forever?
How do you go home to your wife and kids, right?
Is it like, are you living in that show?
What's the show where they go up in the elevator and it wipes their mind?
Yeah, I used to think Bob Lazar was full of shit, but I've come around on it.
I don't think that anymore.
After learning more about all the disinformation and all the time and money they put into just confusing people, like the Paul Benowitz story, I think he would be the perfect candidate to recruit just because of his background.
He converted his Corvette to a hydrogen engine in like, you know, I think it was the 90s.
He did that.
He had a hydrogen-powered Corvette that he engineered himself.
See if you can find Bob Lazar's hydrogen-powered Corvette.
He was a nut.
You know, but he doesn't seem like a liar.
And the podcast, obviously it resonates with people because I think the podcast I had with him on YouTube is the most viewed podcast that we've ever had, including Donald Trump.
Well, the MIT thing, though, look, if you're working at Los Alamos Labs and you're working on top secret stuff for the government, it's not inconceivable that you would be educated at MIT and there wouldn't be a record of it.
Especially if you're working on something that's like really devious shit.
No, I wanted to like the stuff and the stuff, like the thing that is so astonishing to me is like all of the brightest minds and unlimited money have gone to more and more ways to figure out how to kill people.
Like during Operation Paperclip, during the time Bob Lazar was at Los Alamos and at S4, if he was at S4 or whatever was going on there, like and that dude John von Neumann, who was the mathematician, who was he was in,
he came up with the equation to, and who, by the way, was like the most brilliant mathematical mind of our time in American history, came up with the equation of the perfect altitude to detonate Fat Man and Little Boy to kill the most people.
Which is like, you're using this fucking intellect to do these kinds of things.
And now there's a $21 trillion black hole in the DOD.
Like imagine what they could have.
They could have something that's probably, I mean, going way out in the limb, conjecture, obviously, I don't fucking know, but like my conspiracy mind wants to go to like, oh my God, they have like another whole military Air Force Navy that is disconnected from America that is probably more powerful than every other country combined that could just, you know, take over the world in an instant.
What I'm saying, with the 21 trillion, they could have some fucking weapon that would render a nuke completely irrelevant, you know, if they do have anti-gravity.
And if they have figured out some of this crazy parapsychology stuff, the psionic stuff with the UFOs and like the mine interfacing, you know, all this just kooky stuff that you want to easily, you want to dismiss.
But $21 trillion, if they were spending $50 on Stargate and they thought it was worth some sort of intelligence to spy on the Russians, like how much money would they keep throwing at something if there was just a shred of possibility that it could work?
And if there was evidence that this works 3% of the time and we spent a million dollars on it, let's spend a trillion dollars on it and see how much more advanced we can get and see how much more control and world domination we can get.
Like, how many times do you text where you don't even text?
You just press the button and say, you know, text Danny, say this, and it just says it for you.
Or, you know, how old is Barbara Streisand?
And it just, it gives you an instant information.
You're talking to it all the time.
And what's the next step?
Well, the next step is you think it.
Like you wear it and you think, and it does things for you.
And then as technology scales further and further more advanced, you're going to get to a point where you can move your car with your mind.
And then when you have spacecraft, of course, it would be the same sort of technology.
You would use technology to move the craft with your mind.
You know, they already have these interfaces with fighter pilots where where you look is where the crosshair shows up.
So instead of having to like move a crosshair with like a, like, you know, like if you're playing a video game and you're moving the mouse, you're moving the crosshair to the side, or if you're using an Xbox controller, you're moving that crosshair to where you want to hit.
The crosshair goes where their eyes go.
So you're wearing this thing that knows where you're looking.
And they already have this kind of technology with virtual reality.
They have the technology with these meta glasses that they're developing.
So they can, while you have this helmet on, this helmet is not simply a thing that protects your head.
It's an electronic interface with the guidance system.
They're using LLMs to, and the Russians are like hacking the Ukrainians' phones with LLMs, reading everything on their phones, seeing how they communicate with their family, and using LLMs to send messages to their phones of their family trying to get them to lay down their weapons and leave the war.
Well, that's what gets real weird because if you give, if AI starts controlling all the war systems and it just has a goal and it doesn't have any ethics or morals or any concern about life or death, it just has a directive.
Like, I want you to accomplish this.
Take control of the resources and dumb bass.
Do this, do that, whatever it is.
It just does it the most effective way possible, which could be unbelievably brutal.
I think we're looking at what we have now as normal because it's become normal to carry around a phone with you everywhere.
It's become normal to have an Apple Watch on and get all your text messages on your wrist.
It's become normal.
And I think it'll become normal to be interfaced with the great hive mind.
I think we're all going to be connected with some new technology the same way we're all connected with social media and email and FaceTime videos and all that shit that we are now, WhatsApp messages.
We're all going to be connected with something that's far more technologically advanced and it'll become normal, just like this is normal.
I just hope if it does get there, when it does get there, that we can overcome this sort of place that we've reached with social media where people are just like spatting out whatever comes to the front of their mind at any given moment or like just like rage, impulse, and fighting where there's no filter, which I think has just created more and more division and miscommunication.
Oh, yeah.
Like if you're, if, if me and you are just talking and we're communicating our minds back and forth.
So if you could read my mind, you're going to be so goddamn confused and there's probably going to be shit in there you don't, I don't want you to know.
And it's like, I can like to the writing process, right?
Like when you write, you know about writing more than anyone, when you write something and you try to like distill an idea down to like the most precise form to communicate it accurately to the audience, right?
Like you go through so many revisions and you revise and you refine until you get it perfect so you can communicate that message to your audience.
But if it's just a direct stream of consciousness unedited, I can't imagine that would be a good thing, you know, unless you're like some meditative yogi that like has a really editorialized stream of consciousness, which I don't.
You know, I've made that connection i made that connection last night i think about christ like christ was of a virgin birth like what's more of a virgin birth than sentient superintelligence from ai yeah if that becomes a being yeah that is essentially a god and is given birth by a virgin mother i mean that's the story of christ it's just it's just confusing it's just confusing if you translate it over and over over time but if christ is supposed to return that would be a way something like a god would return it would return
through artificial intelligence if it just emerged out of our creation and our insatiable desire to make new and better things yeah no that that that makes a lot of sense like why else do we have this insane desire to have new and improved things because like isn't your phone good enough like i have a samsung galaxy s25 ultra and i have an iphone 16.
But one of my favorite lines in that is when Ford is talking to Bernard, or not Bernard, one of the ladies, one of the robots, and he's explaining the human psyche.
And he's like, all of the greatest achievements of humanity, the Eiffel Tower, the Statue of David, the Mona Lisa, all just elaborate, an elaborate mating call.
It's all peacock feathers.
It's all just this desire to procreate.
That really got me fucking thinking.
And it's like, is that what drives human beings to do things and to create new things?
And new art?
I always thought it was sex.
But I think it might be that combined with the fear of death.
And there's also that painting on the Sistine Chapel, the creation of Adam, which is also in that movie, where it shows God creating Adam and all the angels.
And he's sitting inside of the perfect anatomical illustration of a human brain, if you look at it.
The people who, like, don't believe Jesus existed, they'll make the argument, like, imagine 2,000 years from now that people wanted to say that they were not going to be a good idea.
There was this mythical, divine person.
And he existed because we know there's this divine trilogy called the Lord of the Rings.
I mean, it might be part of the whole weirdness of this whole thing is that we have mythology.
Part of the weirdness of the simulation might be that we have this fantastical mythology that you sort of have to suspend disbelief and accept.
It's part of this whole weirdness that we have where we're susceptible to ideological belief systems like cults.
You know, like political ideologies were essentially just like cults.
You know, when you're on the right and you're, you know, right with everything and, you know, you're all MAGA.
Or if you're on the left, you're blue no matter who.
You're in a cult.
You're in a cult.
People get into cults.
And why is that?
Like, why is that a part of it?
If we are in a simulation, why are we so malleable?
Is it because we recognize it and we're supposed to oppose it and we're supposed to fight the instinct that we all deeply have embedded in our system but we also know is wrong?
Like, what is it about these systems?
Like, why is that in place?
Is this simply just an ancient relic of our tribal past where you had to follow the rules of the tribe in order to survive?
And so it was instilled in people in the psyche and that's how we developed?
Or is there something more to it?
part of the mechanism that allows us to resist which allows us to innovate which encourages us to push forward and ask more questions because we know there's a lot of bullshit like the reason why people ask so many questions now in 2025 as opposed to 2019 is because of covet Because we went through so much bullshit and propaganda, we were so gaslit by the government, by the CDC, by everybody that now we question way more.
So it's probably benefited us somewhat to go through that.
He was the dude who worked for the Human Genome Project, like a DNA wizard.
He was working for the Human Genome Project, trying to figure out different sort of medical treatments for cancers based on your genome.
So like they could target a specific type of leukemia in you and they would take your DNA and they would like basically make designer drugs to target that cancer and to kill that cancer.
And during the pandemic, somebody sent him four unopened vials of the Pfizer vaccine and he analyzed them and ran them through all of his processing systems, whatever the fuck he does.
And he found out there was DNA plasmid contamination in them, which were like promoters of this SB40 shit.
I talked to Brett Weinstein about that and he was explaining that when they first were sequencing certain vaccines, you know, because with the vaccine, you have to use living cells in order to create these antibodies initially.
It sucks because there's no way to know who's telling the truth unless you let people say crazy shit and then have someone come on and refute it and then have the two of them get together and debate it.
You know, and then even then sometimes you don't know.
Like with this Flint Dibble, Graham Hancock thing, you know, if it wasn't for Dan Richards, we wouldn't know that a lot of the things that Flint Dibble said were just absolutely not true.
You're going to tell me some company is going to go to Google and say, listen, bro, we're not going to advertise with you unless you take that guy's video down.
No, I think pharmaceutical drug companies have influence.
And I think if you're getting an enormous percentage of your advertising revenue from pharmaceutical drug companies, which Callie means has said the reason why they do that is not to promote their drugs.
It's to stop criticism.
And this is why they promote, this is why, brought to you by Pfizer.
Anderson Cooper, brought to you by Pfizer.
What that is for is to make sure that they never criticize Pfizer.
So it says YouTube's adpocalypse and the gatekeeping of cultural content on digital platforms.
This is how it all started.
2017, advertiser revolt on YouTube, popularly known as the adpocalypse, introduced widespread and radical changes on the platform's policy related to moderation content.
Their monetizability and the terms of the relationship between the creators and the platform.
And these changes, in turn, have caused significant discontent within the creator community while also gradually transforming the predominant nature of the content on the platform.
So they did do it.
They did it by cutting the ads.
Yeah, it's dirty business, man.
And they're doing it because they don't want people finding out certain things that are actually true.
And that's what they did during the pandemic.
That's what the FBI tried to do when they were banning people like Jay Bhattacharya and prominent scientists and legitimate academics.
This happened to Jesse too with Grush, where he was like, it was like the number one video on Grush, and all of a sudden you can't search it.
Like stuff like that.
I mean, the COVID one was the First, one I actually had taken down, which was scary.
And it makes me think about that.
I hate the fact that I actually have to think about whether I'm going to get the axe based on the topic I'm discussing.
Like, where, like, I don't know if that leads, that doesn't lead to a good place as far as journalism goes, because journalism is supposed to be shining light on the dark places that people don't want to shine.
Yeah, the SB40 stuff is wicked, wicked, freaky, dude.
It's wicked, freaky.
Like with the cancer and how, you know, it goes all the way back to the early days in the 60s or the early 50s and 60s in New Orleans, how they were working trying to develop the polio vaccine with Alton Oschner at Tulane University and trying to weaponize some sort of a,
there's a theory based on that book, Mary's Monkey, where they were growing the polio vaccines on the monkey kidneys and using this to also create bio-weapons to assassinate people like Castro.
And that's apparently what, according to that book, what Lee Harvey Oswald was doing with that Lady Mary Sherman.
And they were using that LINAC machine to try to like supercharge the SB40 to make it more deadly to induce cancer with people.
And then, God, like the event, that cutter event where Alton injected his two grandkids with the polio vaccine in front of the whole auditorium of students.
And his granddaughter lived, was paralyzed, but his grandson died the next day right after they did that.
And they were like, there's people pushing back, like, don't do this.
We tested this on monkeys and like, half of them are dead.
Let's not push this out.
I think it was the Salk vaccine, the Salk polio vaccine.
It was, first of all, I always wanted to make movies when I was a little kid.
I was telling Jamie the story earlier.
I tried to go to full sale.
I was going to go to full sale where Jamie went in Florida, in Orlando, but it was just, I didn't have the money to do it.
And I couldn't get into UCX.
My grades were shit in high school.
So luckily, I got the opportunity to work on this movie called Dolphin Tail.
It was a movie about a dolphin who got its tail stuck in a crab trap.
And Morgan Friedman came in and built it a prosthetic tail.
And it was swimming around in the aquarium.
Carrie Connick Jr. and Morgan Friedman were in it.
And it was like a big, you know, Warner Brothers movie.
And I realized working as a camera production assistant on that movie, it was my film school, but I realized I did not want anything to do with making movies because it was the closest thing I ever experienced to work in construction.
It was like I was in charge of swapping the camera lenses, the camera batteries, taking the SD cards back to the media truck, getting everybody breakfast and coffee.
And these dudes, these camera department dudes, a lot of them are really cool.
Like the dude Pete Zucarini, who was the underwater cinematographer who filmed all the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, he was fucking awesome.
But a lot of the other guys were like really unhappy, like deeply unhappy because they never saw their families.
They were always on the road, FaceTime, a lot of them on their like third, fourth wives, FaceTiming their kids.
And it was like, you know, there were like carnies with dental plans.
They made great money, but they were fucking deeply unhappy.
So like I realized I didn't want to make movies anymore.
So I started an advertising company and making commercials.
And I started doing like spec ads and like winning a bunch of contests to make commercials.
I won really one big contest for Land River USA where we made like a free ad and they paid us to make a bunch of other ads for him.
And then that's where concrete came in.
So it was called something else and I got sued by some advertising company in California saying, hey, bitch, can't use this name anymore.
Change your name.
So my friend who owns a concrete construction company said, bro, there's this really cool website domain for sale with concrete with a K. He's like, it's like a couple thousand bucks.
So after the advertising stuff, I started, I met a bunch of people.
I met Hulk Hogan in the process of the whole advertising thing because me and Hulk live like five minutes from each other, which is like five minutes from the Church of Scientology, which is great.
And I started making a bunch of commercials with him because he would always have companies that would hit him up and say, yo, let's partner on this new product.
And one of them was a hosting company called Hostamania.
They wanted to make Hulk the face of the company.
And we created this whole fucking thing where it was like right when Miley Cyrus dropped the wrecking ball video and we put Hulk on a wrecking ball.
We're like, yo, Hulk, we want to put you on a wrecking ball and have you freaking dropkick Van Dam, who's like the GoDaddy guy, right?
It was actually, it was poor execution, but it was funny.
And he's like, brother, there's only one thing missing from this commercial idea.
I'm like, what?
He's like, I need to be in my birthday suit.
I was like, what?
So we did that.
And then I started working on a bunch of like show.
This was like the boom of reality shows when like Duck Dynasty and Pawn Stars were all taking off.
So I was like, I could probably fucking make a reality show.
So I hit a bunch of my friends and we started like touring around trying to Find people to come up with like TV show ideas and concepts.
And I got a couple people to invest in a couple of TV show ideas, pilots that I spent like six years working on.
And it was this long process of shooting, editing, taking notes from production companies that, you know, you have to, you know, how this works, but you have to like work with production companies who already have relationships with networks.
And they were like constantly giving us notes, like, okay, change this for A ⁇ E, change this for Spike TV.
And we got to make sure it fits each network because we were pitching these networks, these show to all these networks.
I was like, okay, great.
So it was just this roller coaster of emotions of like, oh my God, we're going to get, we're going to sell a TV show.
We're going to do a TV show.
And then finally, we got one of those shows to a green light meeting at Spike TV or A ⁇ E. And like, I was like, this is it.
We're going to do it.
And the CEO of ICOM killed it because it did not fit their roster of existing advertisers.
And I was just like so frustrated and fed up with it.
I was like, fuck this.
I'm taking all this stuff that I've been working on and I'm going to repackage them and put them on YouTube.
And I did.
And the first one that really took off, got millions of views in like 2015 was called Deckhands.
And it was the story of these alcoholic dudes, these drunks that were hanging out in front of 7-Eleven in this little sleepy town called Madeira Beach where I'm from.
So me and my buddy Luke went up and we started filming these guys and asking them questions like, yo, what the fuck do you guys do here every day?
And they're like, we're fucking fishermen, bro.
Come see how we live.
And one of these dudes took us back to his boat he lived on.
He had this broken down boat in this old dusty marina where it was, the boat didn't work, but he had, he lived in this boat and it had amplifiers stacked to the ceiling.
He had a stack of porno DVDs like six feet tall, laser light machines, fog machines, and he wore these fairy wings and like an armor helmet.
And he would jam out to like Rob Zombie on his guitar while playing the music videos on this big projection screen in his boat.
And we're like, this is fucking the Twilight Zone, dude.
And then they started telling us more and more about like what they did.
This is Shane Lee, R.I.P. So we're like, we're asking these guys about like, what are you, like, you're fishermen, but like, explain to me, how does this thing, how does this work?
And they were all pissed off about, oh, we're getting screwed by the boat owners and these IFQs and we don't make any money.
And, you know, we're like, dude, there might be a story here.
So we started interviewing more people.
We eventually interviewed the people who own the boats and own the fish houses.
So like Madeira Beach is the Johns Pass, Florida is the grouper capital of the world.
There's more grouper caught there than anywhere in the world.
And the way it works is before 2007, there was a quota system where it was like for a red snapper, it was like 3 million pounds per year are allowed to be caught in this area, right?
So it was like derby fishing.
So all the boats would go out and they would catch as much fish as they possibly could and they would wait when they get back from their trip and then they would, you know, quantify that or, you know, tell the federal government, this is where we're at.
And sometimes they would reach that 3 million pound limit in like October.
So what do they have to do for the rest of the year?
They stop fishing.
They can't do anything.
So in 2007, the federal government made a monopoly where they gave boat owners an allotment of fishing quota per year.
So some guys got 100,000 pounds, some guys got 200,000 pounds, which is if it's red snapper, that's a dollar a pound.
So that's like the best retirement plan known to man.
The federal government is handing you 200,000 pounds of red snapper quota per year.
And then what happened was eventually the boat owners sold off their quota.
And now it's become so discombobulated where now like you can just buy this fishing quota and trade it like stock.
You don't have to own a boat.
You don't have to be a fisherman.
You can just be some dude sitting in Manhattan in a high-rise and buying and selling fishing quota.
You're not, and there's, there are like fishing communities in America, like in the Northeast, where it doesn't work like that, where you have to have your hand on the throttle.
You have to take care of your people.
And it's a lifestyle and it's like a way to, it's a culture.
And where in Madeira Beach, at least when I was there filming, it was they were all just like carny ride operators, you know?
And these dudes were in the lowest level of this, of this fishing industry are those deckhands, those dudes like Shane Lee.
And they're fucking drug addicts.
A lot of them are hooked on heroin.
What happens is they get home from fishing from 10 days of fishing offshore and they get like $4,000 or $5,000 and they blow it all on prostitutes and Coke and hookers and heroin.
And they just play, they're kids, dude.
They're like kids.
They're like kids with money.
And by the time they run out, they have to go fishing again.
So they're going to all the fish houses saying, bro, let me go, let me go.
So they go offshore again and they see hab where they rehab at sea for 10 days because they have no more drugs.
And one of the people that we interviewed, there was three main characters in that series.
There was Shane Lee, there was Space, and then there was Hollywood Kim.
And Hollywood Kim was the last episode, which was sometimes when I think I have problems in my life, I remember her story and realize I don't really know what fucking problems are.
She was from Alabama, and when she was 17 years old, she gave birth to her father's son.
