Today, Dan tells Jordan all about what happened on the March 14th episode of The Alex Jones Show. Topics include: Who does Alex want to bareknuckle box for charity? Can Alex take a joke? Did an Iowa high school force kids to apologize for wearing red, white and blue? Does Paul Joseph Watson not know who Ted Nugent is?

Hello, Alex. | |
| I'm a first-time caller. | ||
| I'm a huge fan. | ||
| I love your work. | ||
| I love you. | ||
| Hey, everybody. | ||
| Welcome back to Knowledge Fight. | ||
| I'm Dan. | ||
| I'm Jordan. | ||
| Welcome back to another episode of this show. | ||
| What's that? | ||
| A third episode this week. | ||
| Are you kidding me? | ||
| That is... | ||
| We're getting out of control. | ||
| We didn't promise you shit, but we're delivering. | ||
| Somehow you're defensive even whenever you're doing great. | ||
| It's celebratory defensiveness. | ||
| Alex Jones is rubbing off on me. | ||
| I like it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I like it. | |
| So anyway, this is a podcast where me and my friend Jordan here sit down, drink some wine, and discuss Alex Jones and InfoWars in general. | ||
| Is there a twist? | ||
| There is a twist. | ||
| Like a hook? | ||
| The hook? | ||
| A reason to listen beyond you just explaining it? | ||
| The Blues Traveler style hook is that I watch a lot of Alex Jones and listen to him every day and you don't listen to it at all. | ||
| I do not. | ||
| So I like to gather clips. | ||
| Neither that nor Blues Traveler. | ||
| Brings him back. | ||
| Listen, I like to sit down and I gather clips like they're Pokemon. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And I bring them back here and I show you what I've got. | ||
| I got myself a Bulbasaur clip. | ||
| I got myself a Charizard clip. | ||
| And I'm out of Pokemon. | ||
| All right. | ||
| I don't know anymore. | ||
| But, yeah, so today we're going to be going over the March 14th episode. | ||
| That is Tuesday, if you're nasty. | ||
| And, you know, we're going to get into what goes on on the show, get into some of the lies, some of the fun, and, you know, just mix it up. | ||
| Yeah, that's pretty much the plan. | ||
| I'm pretty sure that's mostly the only plan that we've ever had. | ||
| Yeah, and you know what? | ||
| It's worked out so far. | ||
| So far. | ||
| I think. | ||
| We'll see. | ||
| Although... | ||
| We haven't been taken out. | ||
| No, no, but there's talk. | ||
| There's talk in the white papers. | ||
| There's always talk to get rid of us. | ||
| So, the main theme of today's show... | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You might think... | ||
| Can we just stop and acknowledge that was probably our best opening yet? | ||
| It was the smoothest, but I also felt lost itself. | ||
| The whole time it was kind of going smoothly and I'm like, what are we doing? | ||
| It didn't feel right. | ||
| So, of course, we have to comment on it after the fact. | ||
| There we go. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There we go. | |
| We got it. | ||
| We nailed it. | ||
| So, you might expect, Jordan, that today's show would be Alex Jones screaming his ass off about the tape that was posted on Breitbart the night before. | ||
| Regarding Paul Ryan... | ||
| Saying that he would never support Trump and that he hates Trump. | ||
| I will never support this monster. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| That sort of shit. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's what you'd think. | ||
| I would expect it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Because that is in his M.O. It's exactly what he would normally want to talk about. | |
| He's basically doing, like, air support for Trump is what he does all the time. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| So you would think, fucking Paul Ryan's coming over here. | ||
| Already Alex has indicated he doesn't like Paul Ryan's plan. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| No. | ||
| Alex is distracted by other things. | ||
| No. | ||
| Namely, that he was mentioned on Saturday Night Live. | ||
| All right, so we're getting Starfucker Alex today, then. | ||
| Big time. | ||
| That's what we're getting. | ||
| The majority of this episode is him being pissed off at Alec Baldwin and Saturday Night Live in general. | ||
| That's it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| Okay, are we going to go year by year, cast by cast to see who's good? | ||
| I wish we did. | ||
| You know, Piscopo was a patriot. | ||
| Piscopo is, yeah. | ||
| Rob Schneider, he was good for a few years, but then he went globalist. | ||
| I would love it. | ||
| I like Sanders' earlier work. | ||
| I would love it if that's what he did, but instead he gets into this. | ||
| This is great. | ||
| This is pretty close to the beginning of the show. | ||
| This is a couple minutes in. | ||
| He starts by rambling about nothing and then gets into this. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| Meanwhile, you have the real hate being spewed by so-called entertainment shows like SNL and Homeland. | ||
| He was saying before this that, like, people say that he is a hate monger. | ||
| Right, we had already, and we had also already covered the fact that he was lampooned or represented on Homeland. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| And got very pissed off because people believed it was him. | ||
| And apparently he just saw the newest episode and it's not good. | ||
| The character has taken a turn for the dark. | ||
| Oh, he's not the hero of the whole show? | ||
| He's not. | ||
| Oh boy. | ||
| He's not. | ||
| Alex is not gonna like that. | ||
| I haven't watched the new X-Files characters, but I bet it's debatable whether the character based on him in that is the good guy also. | ||
| I'm not sure. | ||
| I gotta go back and watch it. | ||
| But, anyway. | ||
| NBC and CBS, respectively, where they have the person playing the president, Alec Baldwin, a top-tier actor, posing as the president, stealing his identity. | ||
| Remember that. | ||
| So that's not an impression. | ||
| He's stealing his identity. | ||
| He has his social. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| He's got his life force. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah. | |
| I gotcha. | ||
| So just keep in mind that he seems to be thinking about identities being stolen. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| And not, you know, not being accurate. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| And then saying, Alex Jones told me black people aren't human. | ||
| No context, no reality, no nothing. | ||
| Just pure cut to the black people looking angry, going, oh, I get it, you're racist. | ||
| In the skit, if you didn't see it... | ||
| I did not. | ||
| It's a take on Independence Day, and there's aliens that have come down. | ||
| And Trump, you know, Alec Baldwin playing Trump, gives a speech to a bunch of soldiers who are getting ready to do a battle with these aliens. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| And he's like, aliens walk among us, they've been here for years. | ||
| I heard this on InfoWars, Alex Jones, he's a great radio broadcaster. | ||
| And, you know, Kenan is like, What? | ||
| Aliens live here? | ||
| And he's like, yep, there's one right over there. | ||
| And he points at Leslie Jones. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And she's like, I am not an alien. | ||
| And he's like, there's another one right next to her, and it's Sashira Zamata. | ||
| And so the joke is that... | ||
| It's everybody but white people. | ||
| Yeah, basically. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And, I mean, come on. | ||
| It's a joke. | ||
| It's a joke. | ||
| And as we've documented, Alex has a dubious grasp on race. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So the idea that they're mocking that doesn't mean that... | ||
| The point that they're making isn't that Alex thinks that black people are aliens. | ||
| They're exaggerating it for comedic effect. | ||
| Are they, though? | ||
|
unidentified
|
A little. | |
| How much could they possibly be exaggerating based on what we know? | ||
| They're underdoing it. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| It's a lame thing if you know exactly how awful Alex Jones is. | ||
| It kind of is. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I mean, but it's a joke. | ||
| It's got the whole punch. | ||
| It's everything. | ||
| It's a joke. | ||
| Racism doesn't exist. | ||
| One time I was pulled over by a Nazi. | ||
| He said I was cool to go because I was blonde. | ||
| Live from New York! | ||
| Not as good a cold open. | ||
| No. | ||
| People say, oh, that's just entertainment. | ||
| Just like when Colbert attacked me two weeks ago. | ||
| You work for Alex Jones, don't you? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Well, the two of you are renting this house together, but his name, your roommate's name, is on the lease. | ||
| I say you get out right now. | ||
| I'm throwing him out. | ||
| I'm going to start eviction. | ||
| Hey, listen, you know, blah, blah, blah. | ||
| So what he's doing here... | ||
| I have no idea what's going on right there. | ||
| How could you? | ||
| He just skipped into this storyline that he's mentioned before in the past, but I have no evidence of this. | ||
| I don't know if this is true. | ||
| He claims that one of his reporters or someone who works for him got evicted. | ||
| Because the landlord thought that Alex Jones was a bigot and they worked for Alex Jones. | ||
| Which, if that did happen, that's a lawsuit. | ||
| Yeah, that's some dick move right there. | ||
| No, but that's illegal. | ||
| Is it illegal? | ||
| Yes, absolutely. | ||
| That's housing discrimination. | ||
| Oh, that's good! | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's a really good law. | ||
| I'm sure they're going to get rid of it here shortly. | ||
| That's an open and shut case. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| If that happened, which is why I know it didn't happen. | ||
| It did not happen. | ||
| So anyway, but it makes no sense. | ||
| The transition that you made there. | ||
| Okay, so it was... | ||
| But it was following SNL or Colbert. | ||
| Well, he's like, SNL made fun of me just like Colbert made fun of me, and then he skips immediately. | ||
| And because of Colbert, his employee got evicted? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| If you're trying to diagram the sentence, that's what he's saying. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| Just listening to it straight through. | ||
| I'm glad you asked, because it makes no sense. | ||
| It makes no sense. | ||
| And these folks are what I'd call classical liberals. | ||
| Nice folks. | ||
| Not right-wing in any respect. | ||
| And, no, you and your little puppy, your little dachshund, get out of here. | ||
| He moved in with his girlfriend. | ||
| Oh, but it's just entertainment. | ||
| I saw He Hates Gay People on Colbert, and I'm gay. | ||
| Get out of here! | ||
| I'm a lesbian! | ||
| You are for Ellis Jones! | ||
| Get out of here! | ||
| Are we going to pull that one? | ||
| Because Colbert took a clip of me saying, they say, I'm anti-gay. | ||
| I'm not anti-gay. | ||
| But regardless, you're thrown out of your house. | ||
| These are fascist folks. | ||
| And then they sit there and they lie with their fake news. | ||
| They have all their actors posing as reporters like Colbert or posing as the president like Baldwin. | ||
| He doesn't understand this. | ||
| Alec Baldwin is an actor. | ||
| He doesn't understand what's going on here at all. | ||
| Alec Baldwin is an actor doing an impression that's a parody. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| He's acting! | ||
| Stephen Colbert has never pretended to be a reporter. | ||
| No! | ||
| He was doing a character on a comedy show that involved the news, and now he's a late-night talk show host. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| He's not a reporter. | ||
| He's doing comedy. | ||
| Yeah! | ||
| Does Alex really not understand that? | ||
| He doesn't. | ||
| He really doesn't get that. | ||
| I don't think he does, because of a clip we're going to play later, where he gets into the idea of fiction and reality. | ||
| That's really illuminating in terms of some of the theories we've been building. | ||
| And then a black hole opens up and he disappears into it. | ||
| There's a lot of projection. | ||
| He doesn't understand. | ||
| There's so much projection in this episode. | ||
| It gets really weird. | ||
| Real weird. | ||
| Then I say, you know, I'd like to have for charity a million dollars, whoever loses to the charity of their choice, to Bare Knuckles Box, because Baldwin's known for beating up little guys and camera people and now acting tough and stuff. | ||
| I mean, what? | ||
| Give me a break, man. | ||
| But I realize he's older than me, so I would take on him and O 'Reilly, because O 'Reilly's also slandered and defamed me. | ||
| I'll take both. | ||
| I'm serious. | ||
| I'll take both of you on in the ring, and I will beat both your asses into a pole. | ||
| Guaranteed. | ||
| I want to do it. | ||
| And after I kick both your asses in the ring, it's going to show all these pansies and all these wimps that run their mouths how the real world works, okay? | ||
| Just like politically, we are mopping the floor with you. | ||
| My only problem will be breaking my hands on you. | ||
| And so, did they tell you why I'm angry at them? | ||
| No. | ||
| Bill O 'Reilly said, tonight we'll look at sexual predators online and then cut to a clip of me yelling and screaming, strangely enough, about corrupt policing. | ||
| That's the greatest form of defamation you can engage in. | ||
| No one's ever said I'm a sexual predator. | ||
| I have no criminal record. | ||
| It just goes on and on. | ||
| But he just says it so it's okay, see? | ||
| It becomes reality for the delusionoids, the delusionals that just believe mainstream television. | ||
| Delusionoid was a really great video game in the 80s. | ||
| It was, yeah. | ||
| Arcade days. | ||
| Yeah, oh yeah. | ||
| I don't know what that O 'Reilly clip was, but I'm willing to believe that they edited it that way. | ||
| I'm willing to believe Alex's version of it, which is shady. | ||
| Well, you know what? | ||
| Let's not engage with whether or not this is real. | ||
| But again, this comes down to... | ||
| I want Moore to engage with the fact that he said that's the greatest form of defamation you can do to somebody. | ||
| Smash cut to Alex. | ||
| So implying that somebody is a pedophile is the greatest form of defamation you can do to somebody. | ||
| Yep. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Does... | |
| Okay. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Alright! | |
| Does Alex Jones know what he says ever at any point in time? | ||
| He can't possibly. | ||
| Does he have a no-memory situation where every word is the first word he's ever spoken? | ||
| I think it must be that sort of thing. | ||
| He's like a really fast-acting guy from Memento where it's just all gone immediately. | ||
| Either that or he knows that he speaks vaguely enough that when he says, The globalists kill and rape children. | ||
| It's not really a specific defamation on anybody. | ||
| No, he's specifically named people. | ||
| He has. | ||
| He said Chucky Schumer is a vampire. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| We now know. | ||
| I mean, that means, in Alex Jones' code, that means you kill and drink the blood of children. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So, yeah. | ||
| So he specifically called other people pedophiles. | ||
| He has committed the worst act of defamation. | ||
| The worst act of defamation you can commit. | ||
| The moment it happens to him. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| The moment! | ||
| The moment it happens to him, I'm gonna bare-knuckle box you to show you how the real world works. | ||
| Right, violence solves every problem. | ||
| And he even described it as, I'm going to pound you into the ground. | ||
| Like, for charity, I'm going to murder you. | ||
| He's the U.E. bowl of political talk. | ||
| He just wants to fight his critics. | ||
| What is he doing? | ||
| He's such an idiot. | ||
| He wants to fight? | ||
| Physically? | ||
| It's so childish. | ||
| It's insanity. | ||
| He's a 12-year-old. | ||
| I disagree with you philosophically, so let's fight. | ||
| If I beat you, my philosophy is right. | ||
| You know what? | ||
| I wish that was further away from how the real world works. | ||
| Yeah, I suppose so. | ||
| But again, it's might makes right, and hypocrisy doesn't matter. | ||
| These are the tenets of the world of Alex Jones. | ||
| I mean, we just got to get used to it if we're going to dwell in it. | ||
| That's the world we're going to live in. | ||
| Now we get to a nice clip where he has a new lie narrative that I think is pretty interesting that we'll get into right here. | ||
| And out of the gates, 50% off on the Trump Pence for President 2020 shirt that says, Keeping America Great. | ||
| And on the back, America First at 1776, Infowars.com. | ||
| And this is all about free speech, meeting like-minded people and promoting the truth, and standing up against the bullies that tell folks that they can't wear their colors proud. | ||
| It's a red, white, and blue shirt, which again, the Ninth Circuit has ruled as illegal in California schools. | ||
| And I even have articles right here today, again, where if teams have red, white, and blue colors, they're told that they can't have them at basketball games because it hurts the Muslims' feelings. | ||
| I'm not kidding. | ||
| He's not kidding, but he's lying. | ||
| So again, he has the Ninth Circuit lie that we've talked about a bunch. | ||
| I left that in just to illustrate how often he brings that up. | ||
| And then he has this new one about an Iowa basketball team where people were told not to wear red, white, and blue because it offends immigrants or Muslims. | ||
| Is that true? | ||
| Alex must have just seen a tweet because I read up on this story. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| But there is something to read. | ||
| The tweet and the story that's being told in right-wing media and right-wing blogs is that Iowa high school students were forced to apologize for wearing red, white, and blue at a sports game because immigrant students on the opposing team were offended. | ||
| That's the story on right-wing blogs. | ||
| Is there any other part of that story? | ||
| That maybe they've left out. | ||
| Oh man, there's a lot more. | ||
| Oh, there's more? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It seems like that's more than enough for a story. | ||
| Let's print the headline and just not fill it in. | ||
| Don't give it a lead. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So the truth is that these students did apologize for wearing red, white, and blue. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| But they were never asked to. | ||
| They weren't forced to at all. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| They also shouldn't have apologized for wearing red, white, and blue because that wasn't the issue. | ||
| The reason that the opposing team was pissed off Was because they were screaming racial slurs at them. | ||
| That is a much better reason to be pissed off than wearing red, white, and blue. | ||
| They were yelling, deport them. | ||
| No. | ||
| And stuff like that. | ||
| There was a guy who was there, and he was quoted as saying, he had a Facebook post about it. | ||
| He said, also, just remember, we were offended but did not ask for an apology. | ||
| Valley willingly apologized to us. | ||
| We did not make them apologize. | ||
| And then someone commented, please state exactly what offended you. | ||
| The posts say it was wearing of patriotic uniforms. | ||
| If it was more than that, then enlighten us. | ||
| And his response, I don't care what they were wearing. | ||
| Some of them were screaming racial slurs, which is what got me. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Maybe that's more of the story. | |
| That's what got me. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You know, all the way up until then, I was fine. | ||
| Of course no one cares about what someone's wearing if they're not being a bully. | ||
| So they apologized for wearing red, white, and blue, though. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So it was a sarcastic fucking apology. | ||
| Or just not taking responsibility, but knowing you have to apologize. | ||
| Ah, that seems like such a... | ||
| Hold on, hold on. | ||
| Here's where I'll be fair about it. | ||
| The apology came from the student council. | ||
| It didn't come from the kids who were... | ||
| Doing the screaming of racial slurs. | ||
| Oh, okay. | ||
| So I think that it might be... | ||
| Good, I was really hoping that my knowledge of kids who scream racial slurs hadn't just suddenly disappeared. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| To be replaced by people suddenly learning not to yell. | ||
| You wake up hungover and you're like, oh shit, oops. | ||
| Oh man, teens know how to apologize for racial shit now? | ||
| Jesus Christ, what world is this? | ||
| Yeah, so it was the student council, so it's possible that they were just apologizing and trying to save face without... | ||
| Getting into the muck. | ||
| Without actually apologizing. | ||
| Also, a September 2016 Des Moines Register article described the racial tensions in this particular school district in Iowa. | ||
| A culture of, quote, deep racial disparity exists in the Valley High School, creating an inequitable, toxic environment for students of color, according to a report from the Iowa State University researchers. | ||
| The audit found that students of color at the West Des Moines High School are more likely to be labeled as special needs and at risk than their white peers. | ||
| Students of color are also more likely to face discipline or suspension and less likely to be tapped for gifted programs. | ||
| And this is a quote from the researchers. | ||
| The traditions, curriculum, and common teaching methods within the school assume students' upper-class whiteness as the norm or archetype, which can marginalize and demoralize students of color, whether intended or not. | ||
| Now, that's interesting and about... | ||
| Hold on. | ||
| That's about a lot of education as a whole. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| We can accept that. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Now, here's where it gets... | ||
| More specific. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| There were, like, basically race fights at this Iowa school. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| And so maybe that's the kind of climate that we're living in and has nothing to do with the fact that they're wearing red, white, and blue. | ||
| There's a big racism problem at Valley High School in Iowa. | ||
| And of course it's not commonly reported because why would it be? | ||
| It's a high school in the middle of America. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| It's just one example of many. | ||
| How? | ||
| Oh! | ||
| But they just ran with it as being about wearing red, white, and blue. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| That's what they rant with. | ||
| No context whatsoever. | ||
| And what he does in the end is blame the victims. | ||
| Again, he takes the side because he can't fucking spin a yarn that's against his narrative. | ||
| He can't dig for the facts. | ||
| He can't look into it. | ||
| And he's lying by omission and just lying. | ||
| It's fucking sad. | ||
| So this is reported only on right-wing news, period? | ||
| Uh, what do you mean? | ||
| I mean, no, like local news talked about the incident itself. | ||
| Yeah, and then right-wing blogs picked it up. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Are they reporting anything, or is it just full-on, I heard about this, and then I'm very mad, and yada, yada, that whole thing. | ||
| Well, I mean, the tweets are basically along the lines of, students forced to apologize for wearing red, white, and blue, blah, blah, blah. | ||
| I mean, it's exactly the same as the Ninth Circuit bullshit. | ||
| Yeah, you know what? | ||
| Fuck them. | ||
| Fuck him. | ||
| This is a pure distraction. | ||
| This is nothing. | ||
| We move on. | ||
| We move on! | ||
| He's gone! | ||
| I wave him from me. | ||
| But I just like these specific examples because it comes down to what we can pin to the wall. | ||
| There's a lot of stuff that we can't really pin to the wall. | ||
| I can't prove that Alex doesn't have sources. | ||
| I have good circumstantial evidence that he doesn't, but I can't prove it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's true. | |
| I can prove that he didn't read this article based on the facts of the article. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So this is an instance where it's like, fuck you, dude. | ||
| You're not telling the story. | ||
| You're lying. | ||
| You're a propagandist. | ||
| And on our last episode, he was fucking calling other people a race pimp. | ||
| I would say if anybody is doing that sort of behavior, it's you in that exact moment. | ||
| I think you just committed. | ||
| Race pimpery? | ||
| The greatest act of defamation you can possibly commit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And do you know who's willing to fight you? | |
| Alec Baldwin? | ||
| For charity? | ||
| Alec Baldwin only fights for profit. | ||
| We all know this. | ||
| Hannity? | ||
| Hannity fights for sexual favors. | ||
| Oh, also, let's tie this into the big picture of Representative Stephen King, who is from Iowa, who is an out-and-out white nationalist. | ||
| Yeah, and he's not even bothering anymore. | ||
| No, but so, like, clearly Iowa's about to blow up. | ||
| Like, there's fucked up stuff going on there. | ||
| That whole state's garbage. | ||
| I've had some nice times in Iowa City, Des Moines. | ||
| So is Indiana. | ||
| I don't even know where Montana is. | ||
| Let's just call that one Canada-like. | ||
| It's little Canada. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| No. | ||
| King? | ||
| King. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Said... | |
| Some white nationalist shit. | ||
| We can't fix our culture with other people's babies, essentially. | ||
| Paul Ryan said, I think he needs to clarify his comments. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And then he did. | |
| And then he clarified his comments. | ||
| I meant exactly what I said. | ||
| With, I meant exactly what he said. | ||
| Paul Ryan, when asked for a comment regarding that, said, I think he needs to clarify his statements. | ||
| If I were Paul Ryan, the second time, my response would be... | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oof. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| Like, okay, I gotta punt on this one. | ||
| This supports the reality. | ||
| The GOP is now only for dumb people, people who deny reality, and out-and-out racists. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| Yeah, absolutely. | ||
| There's no one else who's part of that. | ||
| Alex has never seen white racism in his life. | ||
| Well, I mean, except for Nazis. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| So this clip is not... | ||
| Nazis are only a positive thing. | ||
| Right. | ||
| They're about prosperity. | ||
| Anyway, this clip is not done. | ||
| He goes from talking about this basketball team and lying about them to somehow weave it into Turkey. | ||
| But when he brings up Turkey, what he doesn't do is bring up that his boy Mike Flynn was working for them. | ||
| Are you sure it wasn't that you're no longer allowed to wear red, white, and blue on Thanksgiving? | ||
| Yeah, that might be it. | ||
| I think that's probably where he's going to go with this. | ||
| That's a good theory. | ||
| Well, then you don't feel like you should be part of the country if the red, white, and blue upset shoots. | ||
| I mean... | ||
| Why are we submitting to them? | ||
| Ergon has now declared the dictator of Turkey that he is the supreme ruler of Europe, basically. | ||
| Wow! | ||
| And has General Flynn in his employ. | ||
| So suck it. | ||
| And his name is Erdogan. | ||
| Not Erdogan. | ||
| Erdogan. | ||
| He's from occupied Texas. | ||
| Give him a break. | ||
| Just learn how to say the goddamn name. | ||
| Ah, fine. | ||
| George Ramos. | ||
| Don't say that. | ||
| Learn how to say the fucking name. | ||
| There it is. | ||
| WHO TV, NBC, Valley Students, a USA-themed student section not aimed at North Refugee Athletes. | ||
| That's the name of the team, North Refugee Athletes. | ||
| So that's him reading the headline of the story. | ||
| He thinks that the team name is North Refugee Athletes. | ||
| That is not the name of the team. | ||
| Athletes. | ||
| The NRA. | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Bingo. | ||
| The North Refugee Athlete. | ||
| So does that, to you, does that make you see a vision of a basketball jersey with just somebody escaping Syria on it as their mascot? | ||
| Yeah, basically, yeah. | ||
| The team is the Tigers. | ||
| I looked it up. | ||
| He doesn't understand the story. | ||
| He doesn't even understand the headline as he's reading it. | ||
| So, on the one hand, we have the team, the North Refugee Athletes. | ||
| Which is one of the most common names for high school sports. | ||
| And then on the other, we have the Tigers. | ||
| Now, did they vote for that at an assembly? | ||
| Were those two ever an option one against the other? | ||
| It might have been. | ||
| You know what? | ||
| We want to be unique. | ||
| Fair enough. | ||
| Okay, so I was kind of worried. | ||
| I want to bring this up a tiny bit because we're going to get a little bit into this. | ||
| Today, you tweeted at Paul Joseph Watson. | ||
| You tweeted at Prison Planet. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| You quoted one of his tweets and sent me into a panic for the entire day. | ||
| But then I found this clip. | ||
| Oh, okay. | ||
| And it made me feel like we might be okay. | ||
| Because in it, Alex Jones describes how he likes to take a joke. | ||
| Oh, good! | ||
| Unfortunately. | ||
| That puts us, you know, already we're off the hook. | ||
| We're in the clear. | ||
| We know that he likes to take a joke. | ||
| Unfortunately, by the end of this clip, I'm starting to wonder if he actually likes to take a joke. | ||
| Do you think he even knows what a joke is? | ||
| It's vague at this point. | ||
| It's unclear. | ||
| But we'll let him descend from, hey, I'm cool, I like to take a joke, to screaming. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| I saw another mashup piece. | ||
| I sent it to Nico. | ||
| I forget exactly what publication it was. | ||
| Let me look it up. | ||
| And I've become one of the top, I guess, comedians in the country. | ||
| Literally, they're even saying that in newspapers, tongue-in-cheek. | ||
| Okay, good. | ||
| Otherwise, it's a bad newspaper. | ||
| That's A.V. Club. | ||
| With daily mashups of things I've said in 20 years on video into these comedy pieces. | ||
| And they think it's destroying me or hurting me, but we have the metrics. | ||
| It's sending us giant hordes of young people. | ||
| Before we get into, like, how he takes a joke and stuff, I want to be clear that I kind of agree with him on this. | ||
| And this is one of my big principles, is taking him out of context like that is incredibly dangerous. | ||
| It really only feeds into his game. | ||
| What we're doing is still laughing at him. | ||
| And far more tedious. | ||
| Very tedious. | ||
| So much work. | ||
| So tedious. | ||
| But at the same time... | ||
| Look, imagine this podcast, but if it were one and a half minutes long, and there were just, instead of us commenting on it, there was just techno music, and then scenes from movies? | ||
| Uh-huh. | ||
| That sounds super entertaining. | ||
| But that would be too tedious for me, because I'd have to edit that fucking shit up. | ||
| Yeah, that's true. | ||
| You could never handle that. | ||
| But I think that... | ||
| I really do agree with him that people... | ||
| Doing these jokey videos are sort of playing into his hands. | ||
| I think they're sending people to him. | ||
| Well, these people are going to check him out. | ||
| They want to know more about who is this fucking wingnut. | ||
| And I don't think that they're going to convert tons of people or anything like that. | ||
| No. | ||
| But it does get into your head that he's funny and all this stuff. | ||
| And I do think that that's a dangerous thing. | ||
| I'm not saying that they're doing something bad. | ||
| I'm just saying there are negative side effects of treating him like a joke. | ||
| And that will be one of my main theses for the entirety of this podcast. | ||
| Yeah, he is a joke. | ||
| But he is a... | ||
| He's like the killing joke. | ||
| He's the Joker. | ||
| That's what... | ||
| Oh, he's just so bad. | ||
| He's like a truly bigoted joke that everyone seems to not get. | ||
| Now, if they're sending people to him, the worry that I have is that he's becoming more... | ||
| Disseminated in the popular consciousness. | ||
| More mainstreamed. | ||
| While I was saying that, I realized that is exactly what we're hoping happens. | ||
| Not really. | ||
| So we can explode. | ||
| No, because we'll be too late. | ||
| Yeah, that's a good point. | ||
| If he becomes super mainstream, he'll be like, oh, yeah, you guys are doing another Alex Jones podcast? | ||
| Yeah, that's true. | ||
| We need to take over. | ||
| We need to pull up now. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| We need to have started this podcast two years ago. | ||
| Right. | ||
| This is like Game of Thrones. | ||
| He should have been in the endgame by now. | ||
| He should already know that Jon Snow is going to ride a fucking dragon. | ||
| Why aren't we there yet? | ||
| Why aren't we there yet? | ||
| He's gonna ride it! | ||
| Don't spoil Game of Thrones. | ||
| Let's get to Alex Jones having a great sense of humor about himself. | ||
| Excellent. | ||
| My son loves it. | ||
| His school loves it. | ||
| And it's fun. | ||
| I like being made fun of. | ||
| You think I'm like some fake conservative from 50 years ago that's all in a stuffed suit going, well, Buffy, how dare them make a joke about me? | ||
| Or Judge Smales. | ||
| Judge Smales? | ||
| By the way. | ||
| Judge Smales? | ||
| That reference is going to miss all of your millennials that are coming over from the AV club. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| What is Judge Smales? | ||
| No fucking idea. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Probably from some goddamn sitcom. | ||
| Look it up while we're doing that. | ||
| I don't know how to spell it. | ||
| Smales? | ||
| I don't want to... | ||
| And then it's got the comments in here. | ||
| And like most of the comments... | ||
| When you read them, this is the guy that says whites are superior to black people. | ||
| Never said that. | ||
| This is the guy that says he's superior genetically to Denzel Washington when he's old and ugly. | ||
| What are you talking about? | ||
| That's mental illness. | ||
| I've never said any such thing. | ||
| It's like this mental illness where they're fiction writers and they make stuff up. | ||
| And they say, I produced an album called I Don't Like Blacks, 2018. | ||
| So he actually shows the comment thread on this AV Club video. | ||
| And if you've ever been to the AV Club, they kind of go buck wild in the comment threads. | ||
| They like trolley comment threads. | ||
| And they like to do strings of jokes. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So comment threads end up becoming, someone makes a joke, someone tags it, tag, tag, tag. | ||
| And on the AV Club, they also kind of have a very communal comment thread where it's kind of the same people always in conversation with each other. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| Because the video in question, he does some rapping in it. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| As we've seen, he can drop a verse. | ||
| Yeah, so people start writing Alex Jones raps, and one of them has a rap lyric of him, like, I'm Alex Jones and I'm here to say blah blah blah blah. | ||
| And then it says, from his album, I don't like black people. | ||
| Which is just a joke. | ||
| No one said he made an album. | ||
| It's a silly joke. | ||
| And it's from the future! | ||
| Exactly! | ||
| Is bringing an album back from the future in order to release it now. | ||
| So his point is that he can take a joke. | ||
| He's not one of these stodgy conservatives. | ||
| But then he literally is reading comment sections and being like, they said that I made a fucking album because I don't like black people. | ||
| That is so... | ||
| Within a minute. | ||
| How many people do we know who have that kind of level of narcissism where they could absolutely read a... | ||
| Put a Facebook post up. | ||
| It turns into one of those Facebook posts. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| They will absolutely turn to you and read the comments to you. | ||
| I might. | ||
| We know people who would do that. | ||
| I might, but it would only be out of fear. | ||
| Imagine they have a show. | ||
| A hypothetical million strong audience? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Oh my god, that's great. | ||
| Anyway. | ||
| Looked up Judge Smales. | ||
| Smales from Caddyshack. | ||
| Oh, okay. | ||
| Not Schmales. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| Which sounded very anti-Semitic to me. | ||
| I figured it was like a Honeymooners reference or something like that. | ||
| Because Alex Jones, he says he's 43. Right. | ||
| That motherfucker's 50 plus. | ||
| Do you think so? | ||
| I think so. | ||
| Anyway. | ||
| Do you think he's lying about his age? | ||
| I think so. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's great. | |
| He does not look like a 43 year old dude. | ||
| Yeah, but he lives his life fucking hard. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| And it's like pseudo-intellectuals. | ||
| And I feel sorry for these people because I was reading these comments this morning and it was wild. | ||
| And every single moment. | ||
| We've changed the world. | ||
| We've got presidents being elected all over the world to fight globalism and have a new pro-empowerment, productivity renaissance. | ||
| We're having huge success. | ||
| We reach 45 million people a week conservatively. | ||
| We're creating spinoff movements that are reaching even more people. | ||
| And then they have these weird celebrations. | ||
| I see it, too, about Drudge. | ||
| Oh, he's number one, but he's a loser. | ||
| Or Alex is big, but he's a loser. | ||
| It's like, oh, Alex is mentally ill. | ||
| Or Alex is an outcast, and they're projecting everything they think they are. | ||
| And there are these alone people in their mother's basements. | ||
| All the demographics show it. | ||
| The average liberal, like 90%, below the age of 35, lives in their mom's basement, has no job, plays video games all day. | ||
| And then they just sit there together celebrating how people that are active, aggressive, successful, genetically unsuccessful. | ||
| Yikes. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Whoa! | |
| When did we drop that one in there? | ||
| I wanted to pause that just for a second, but also... | ||
| Also to just really hammer that point home. | ||
| Also, this is not what someone who can take a joke does. | ||
| No. | ||
| We're on 30 seconds of insulting the people who made the jokes that he's... | ||
| They all live in their parents' basement. | ||
| All these 90% of liberals under 35 live in their parents' basement. | ||
| I don't know anybody who lives in their parents' basement. | ||
| I know a lot of liberals under 35. Yeah, but 90% of them, you don't know. | ||
| There are some comics who live in basements, but that's... | ||
| But we've all lived in our parents' basement at one point or another. | ||
| Yeah, sure. | ||
| Not all of us have commented on AB Club. | ||
| You go under 35, you take that down to under 23, you're talking a different ballpark. | ||
| The reasons of, you know, the very same parents voted to ruin the economy. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So... | |
| Anyway. | ||
| But... | ||
| No, no, no, no. 90%? | ||
| 90%. | ||
| That's bullshit. | ||
| All the studies show this. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All of them. | |
| All the studies show this. | ||
| Not one study shows this. | ||
| He's just mad because somebody made a joke on an AV Club article and he has to hammer this home that he's so much stronger and so much tougher than all of these people. | ||
| He can take a joke because he's so strong and so... | ||
| And if you don't think he can take a joke, he will meet you in the ring! | ||
| He's real close to that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He will fight you! | |
| He's real close to threatening these commenters. | ||
| It is Huey Boll, man. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It is. | |
| It's just... | ||
| Look, you remember what he did, right? | ||
| I'm waiting for him to say my dad could beat up your dad. | ||
| You remember when Huey Boll, whenever he got bad movie reviews, he was like, I will box you. | ||
| He would just try to get people to box him about their bad movie reviews. | ||
| I did not know that. | ||
| He... | ||
| Yeah, he did that. | ||
| It was great. | ||
| That is pretty great. | ||
| Yeah, it's hilarious. | ||
| That sounds like a fun thing to do, actually. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Whenever the stakes are so low that it's just a dumb movie. | ||
| Awesome. | ||
| I made... | ||
| I can't remember any of his fucking stupid movies. | ||
| But yeah, he made like... | ||
| Resident Evil? | ||
| No, I don't think that was him. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| He made... | ||
| Blood Rain. | ||
| He made Blood Rain. | ||
| Sure, Blood Rain. | ||
| You don't like it? | ||
| Video games. | ||
| I fight you. | ||
| Yeah, video game movies. | ||
| Anyway, Alex gets more mad. | ||
| I've got a lot of kids. | ||
| They're successful. | ||
|
unidentified
|
My family line's been successful. | |
| By every benchmark, I'm very successful. | ||
| And then they go have little ceremonies and celebrations that I'm not successful. | ||
| I don't disagree that he's successful, but this is so petty. | ||
| This is pathetic. | ||
| This is really sad. | ||
| The two responses, I will fight you, and then being so defensive about being successful, it's insane. | ||
| If we got a bad review, I swear to God, let's just talk for two hours about that person. | ||
| I think we got a four-star review on iTunes. | ||
| It almost made me freak out. | ||
| You ruined our five stars. | ||
| Oh, are you kidding me? | ||
| Four stars? | ||
| How dare you? | ||
| Are you kidding me? | ||
| You know what? | ||
| You're probably one of the 90% of conservatives who are 85 years old and living above their parents' graves and just... | ||
| Talking shit and playing video games all day, like delusionoids. | ||
| We are both genetically successful. | ||
| We're both genetically successful. | ||
| I have a day job. | ||
| I'm reasonably successful in a job that I am not qualified for. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Because they need to live in a delusional world where they create a straw man of who I am. | ||
| And then they declare themselves better than that person. | ||
| Still doesn't know what a straw man is. | ||
| It's the same thing the white supremacists do. | ||
| They'll just say, Alex Jones works for Israel, blah, blah, blah. | ||
| He's a bad guy. | ||
| Just to make themselves feel powerful and put themselves above me. | ||
| And I noticed that some of the black supremacist groups do that too, but really not many. | ||
| It's mainly weird white young people. | ||
| White young people. | ||
| They have all this weird white guilt and no identity. | ||
| White guilt. | ||
| And then they go and comment and just make stuff up. | ||
| Like, hey dude, if you're going to say that I think I'm better than Denzel Washington, what the hell are you talking about? | ||
| I like Denzel Washington movies. | ||
| I think the guy's good looking. | ||
| In fact, they make the point. | ||
| Oh, look, Denzel Washington's 20 years older and looks younger than Alex. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| What did I ever say about Denzel Washington? | ||
| You just make up some fantasy that I think I'm better than Denzel Washington, just like Alec Baldwin pretends to be the president. | ||
| Yes! | ||
| And then says Alex Jones told me black people aren't humans. | ||
| You just described him. | ||
| And I bet money. | ||
| There's a bunch of these comments in here. | ||
| I bet this guy called Cookie Monster. | ||
| This handle probably saw Saturday Night Live and thinks if they made that joke about me, it must be true. | ||
| See, they're trying to brand me as David Duke. | ||
| But David Duke doesn't even say stuff that far. | ||
| Yes, he does. | ||
| No, well, David Duke says he's David Duke. | ||
| David Duke does not call Alex Jones David Duke. | ||
| He's not playing a character. | ||
| Nuh-uh. | ||
| David Duke is just a bigot. | ||
| David Duke is a full-on bigot. | ||
| I don't think anyone needs to brand Alex Jones as anything other than Alex Jones. | ||
| He's very successful at it. | ||
| We let him live and die by his own words. | ||
| Fuck you, Cookie Monster. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I love that he has to use the handle. | |
| You know what? | ||
| I don't like what Cookie Monster said about me. | ||
| That's such a fucking pathetic little tiny person thing to do. | ||
| It's a farce. | ||
| He's a YouTube commenter that has his own YouTube show. | ||
| So at that point, after this clip had ended, after this section ended, I was like, well, maybe he doesn't like being made fun of and he's trying to pretend that he does because he knows it's gracious to be made fun of and, you know, roasts, all that stuff, all that. | ||
| You know, it's sort of a social thing where busting balls is how you communicate friendship a lot of the time. | ||
| This next clip. | ||
| That plays immediately after made me realize Alex does not like being made fun of. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| This is where he just like, no. | ||
| You needed more after that previous clip? | ||
| Only because it gets much worse. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| But with the thinking people, that's in one group. | ||
| Of every color, of every region, of every, you name it. | ||
| Just awake, sentient beings. | ||
| And over here you've got the massive people, though, that literally are living in fantasy land. | ||
| The delusionoids. | ||
| They call us the deplorables, they're the delusionoids. | ||
| The delusionals. | ||
| One of those is a real word, one of those is not. | ||
| And they've got a lot of guts in the system to put this out, but it works because people don't differentiate fiction with non-fiction now. | ||
| No, you don't! | ||
| You don't deliberate that! | ||
| This is where we get some pot calling the kettle black action. | ||
| Everybody else does that! | ||
| This entire stretch here is where Alex thoroughly projects exactly what he does onto those who criticize him. | ||
| And it's fascinating. | ||
| They don't know the difference between truth and fiction. | ||
| Bro, come on. | ||
| All of your analogies end up citing movies. | ||
| You just think that the plot... | ||
| Okay, anyway, here we go. | ||
| Here comes a deep dive. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| So mainstream media is the fake news. | ||
| They're organizing with the communist Chinese to censor the liberty movement. | ||
| Man, that's fighting words. | ||
| That's foreign espionage. | ||
| That's a foreign takeover. | ||
| Of our media, our entertainment, our infrastructure. | ||
| And I see the leftist commenting in computer world and you name it. | ||
| Oh good, China, help us please shut down Alex Jones and President Trump. | ||
| There's actual comments! | ||
| Oh yes, communist Chinese are really going to treat you real good. | ||
| Again, he's responding to commenters. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| It's the biggest waste of time ever. | ||
| You sit here in the lap of freedom. | ||
| You sit here in the lap of the West and then bitch about it when you have no idea what you're allying yourself with. | ||
| North Korea is a dropping of China. | ||
| Little pile they left in the corner there. | ||
| Horrible enslavement. | ||
| But you think it's cute when Dennis Rodman goes over there and hangs out with Kim Jong-un. | ||
| No, we don't. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| Still don't. | ||
| You might have missed the point of any coverage about that. | ||
| It was, hey, that's fucked up. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| What is he doing going over there? | ||
| That's not cool at all. | ||
| Yeah, hey. | ||
| Dennis Rodman! | ||
| Don't do that! | ||
| Even the globalists thought that was fucked up. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So... | |
| In just... | ||
| As a little pot-bellied goblin launches missiles at Japan, and we've got to have B-52 bombers on the tarmac with nukes now in South Korea, ready to nuke the entire North. | ||
| They're not just going to drop bombs on Pyongyang. | ||
| They're going to drop bombs all along the border, where he's got reportedly 100,000 pieces of artillery aimed at Seoul. | ||
| Can't feed his people, but boy, does little Mr. Weenie, does little weenie, little weenie, Kim Jong-un, have a bunch of vessels? | ||
| They always do. | ||
| That's your state. | ||
| That's what you worship. | ||
| See, America's the big liberal, open society, freedom, wild, wild west, baby, and you people want to control words and ban whiteboards and ban scales. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Again, this is because somebody commented. | |
| This is all in response. | ||
| This is all the same response. | ||
| He just somehow weaved in the North Korea situation, which is agreed. | ||
| It's fucked up. | ||
| That's fucked up. | ||
| But I think we're probably responding to it wrong. | ||
| But be that as it may, then he gets into Kim Jong-il as a tiny dick. | ||
| Yeah, little weenie. | ||
| In colleges, they're banning whiteboards, which we went over in a past episode. | ||
| That is not what's going on. | ||
| Every time somebody's banning something, it's usually because of racial slurs. | ||
| A specific college had a rash of racial slurs used on whiteboards. | ||
| This is Michigan State, as I recall. | ||
| And at the same time, they recognized that all communication was being done through social media. | ||
| So what's the point of having them there if they're being used to harass people? | ||
| They did the least they possibly could. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| That's a good way to put it. | ||
| That's the real thing that you should be angry about. | ||
| Now, I think what Alex Jones is about to say is it's beyond book burning. | ||
| Is it? | ||
| That's his take on it. | ||
| Facebook comments. | ||
| No, no. | ||
| AV Club comments. | ||
| Getting rid of whiteboards is beyond book burning. | ||
| Beyond it. | ||
| It's trying to ban the written word. | ||
| I mean, you can erase a whiteboard. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's true. | |
| You can just erase it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah, that is one option. | ||
| But again, when we talked about this the first time, we agreed that this isn't the best strategy. | ||
| Erasing a whiteboard is exactly like burning a book that rewrites itself. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| An everlasting book. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| And ban the word mother and father. | ||
| You're the cult! | ||
| You're not the cool people! | ||
| So uncool. | ||
| You don't get it! | ||
| You morons don't know the life I've led, what I've done, any of it. | ||
| You sit there in your mommy's basement. | ||
| When I've lived more than you at 40, let's say you're 40, by the time I was 14 years old, guaranteed, you sit there in your mommy's basement. | ||

Well, he was 80 when he was 5. And he was twice divorced at 14. What? | |
| What is he talking about? | ||
| He's just still mad about these comments. | ||
| It's just about the comments. | ||
| He can't take a fucking joke. | ||
| It reminds me of... | ||
| We're gonna get screwed if he finds this podcast. | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
|
unidentified
|
God. | |
| He's on minute ten of yelling at these people about a comment thread on the AV Club. | ||
| Oh, God. | ||
| I love it so much. | ||
| We're on episode, like, 23 of this podcast. | ||
| I love it so much. | ||
| We've recorded, like, 50 hours just analyzing his racism, his misogyny, his Islamophobia, his idiocy. | ||
| He's going to freak out if he finds this. | ||
| You know what? | ||
| We gotta tell him. | ||
| Here's the thing. | ||
| We gotta tell him. | ||
| He won't. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Because then he'd have to listen to it. | ||
| That's a good point. | ||
| He would have to... | ||
| He'll make his son do it. | ||
| Do you know why he engages with that video? | ||
| Because he could watch the whole thing. | ||
| Oh, because it was a minute and a half long? | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, that's true. | ||
| He can engage with a headline. | ||
| If our episode titles were... | ||
| Alex Jones is a big, dumb, fat idiot. | ||
| He would know everything about us. | ||
| Okay, well, maybe I should make some small... | ||
| If our episode titles are March 14th, he's not going to know a goddamn thing. | ||
| Maybe I should make some small YouTube videos that are salaciously titled. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh! | |
| Maybe I'll work on that for the near future. | ||
| You could take our own ethos, edit it out of context, and put it on YouTube. | ||
| That's a good idea. | ||
| Thus opening ourselves... | ||
| Okay. | ||
| As we change the world, and you lie about us as if it's some magic power you discovered. | ||
| Everybody knows six and seven-year-olds tend to lie a lot. | ||
| It's like a new thing they discover, and it's real cool. | ||
| Everybody's laughing at the kid when they're lying constantly, and they don't stop lying by the time they're ten or so. | ||
| The kid's got a problem. | ||
| You're in your mommy's basement. | ||
| Get out of your pampers now. | ||
| And I don't respond to you meanly, because I... | ||
| Want to hurt you. | ||
| I know you only respond to ridicule. | ||
| That's at the level you're at in junior high. | ||
| Arrested development. | ||
| So I'm reaching out to you. | ||
| Like junior high, you're all over there eating your buggers in the corner, laughing at adults living in the real world. | ||
| It's time for you to grow up, sonny, and get out of mommy's basement. | ||
| And stop being mad at people that have done things. | ||
| Because that's what this really is, is a bunch of little kids sitting around mad at people that are actually doing something. | ||
| It's not. | ||
| It's definitely not. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| But do you know what it is? | ||
| People responding to the things he's saying appropriately? | ||
| Alex Jones being mad at people who've done something. | ||
| And it's him projecting. | ||
| That thing about kids learning not to lie at some point. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You might have some insecurities about how much you lie. | ||
| I'm telling you. | ||
| Absorbed a twin in the womb trying to escape from the year. | ||
| It's entirely possible. | ||
| Anyway, let's get to our next clip. | ||
| Jordan. | ||
| Why is he so mad at an AV club comment? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know. | |
| And his anger is not done, but at least it's done about that. | ||
| He's done yelling at the AV club people, but he does get back to Alec Baldwin here in a moment. | ||
| But first, we had a special report on this episode from the one and only Paul Joseph Watson. | ||
| PJ Dubs? | ||
| Hates SJ Dubs. | ||
| So, I promised... | ||
| At one point, that we would never play his voice on this show. | ||
| You did. | ||
| I promised that we would never play Paul Joseph Watson and Roger Stone. | ||
| And in honor of that, this next clip is 30 seconds of silence. | ||
| In honor of you tweeting at him. | ||
| Oh, that's right. | ||
| I'm going to play a tiny bit of his special report today. | ||
| He did a special report about how Snoop Dogg is an asshole. | ||
| Basically because... | ||
| Uh-oh. | ||
| Uh-oh. | ||
| They call him a race pimp. | ||
| They say that he... | ||
| Have we established what race pimp is? | ||
| Still a little vague. | ||
| It ain't easy. | ||
| They were screaming about how he was working with the CIA to prepare black youths to go to prison. | ||
| That's what rap music is all about. | ||
| Snoop Dogg. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| It's a massive... | ||
| And all rap music is the prison pipeline. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| Not... | ||
| Not... | ||
| The judges? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Or... | |
| Mandatory minimums? | ||
| The schools? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Or... | |
| None of them. | ||
| Any of these things? | ||
| No, no, Snoop. | ||
| It's rap music. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Alright. | ||
| I buy it. | ||
| But what they're mostly focusing on is the idea that Snoop would fake assassinate Trump. | ||
| Which he doesn't. | ||
| There's a bang flag that comes out of it. | ||
| It's like a Daffy Duck thing. | ||
| But they take it as like... | ||
| I mean, Pussy Riot would actually put out a video where they fake assassinate Trump, right? | ||
| Yeah, probably. | ||
| They're hardcore. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| They did time for that shit. | ||
| Snoop Dogg almost did time. | ||
| Murder was the case that they gave him. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| Anyway. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| Paul Joseph Watson says something super unfortunate in his heavily edited report. | ||
| To the point where he spent so much time on this, it's pathetic that this was still in it. | ||
| Heavily edited. | ||
| He has really quick cuts of him saying things. | ||
| It's never a complete cut of him giving a speech. | ||
| It's like five seconds, cut, five seconds, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut. | ||
| It's basically to try and... | ||
| So it's like a reality TV show. | ||
| It's to appeal to low attention span people with constantly moving YouTube style. | ||
| Sound bites and that kind of thing. | ||
| Does he ever do a star wipe? | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| Tell me he does a star wipe. | ||
| I haven't watched enough to know. | ||
| But I do know that whenever he's quoting other people's tweets or things that he doesn't like, he does like a me, me, me, me, me, me, me voice filter. | ||
| Great. | ||
| We're all adults here. | ||
| Way to engage with the issues. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Man. | |
| So now... | ||
| Enjoy this clip. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Remember when the left said depictions of Obama as a clown were racist? | |
| Now it's not only trendy to depict Trump as a clown, it's okay to symbolically assassinate him. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Imagine if a conservative music star like Ted Nugent Well, I mean, that's an interesting thought experiment, but I mean... | |
| I don't know if we could ever come up with an example that would go against what he just said. | ||
| I mean, I... | ||
| I can't think of any situation where Ted Nugent has said anything inflammatory. | ||
| No. | ||
| Insinuating that someone would die. | ||
| No. | ||
| It certainly wouldn't be from this clip of the Ted Nugent concert. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hey, I don't suck on this one, damn, you putz. | |
| I was in Chicago last week. | ||
| I was in Chicago. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I said, hey, Obama, you might want to suck at one of these, you punk. | |
| You don't get that. | ||
| Obama, he's a piece of shit. | ||
| And I told him to suck at my machine. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Huh. | |
| I wonder if that's... | ||
| Is that good? | ||
| I mean, was the song good? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I don't know what song he did after that. | ||
| See, this is poor reporting on your part. | ||
| Worst reporting on Paul Joseph Watson's part. | ||
| Because the video is Ted Nugent walking around on stage with two machine guns in his hand and telling Obama to suck his machine gun. | ||
| That's worse. | ||
| It wasn't a music video, though. | ||
| Imagine if it was a music video. | ||
| That's worse than a fake depiction. | ||
| That's just a man threatening to kill the president. | ||
| And getting cheered for it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's a whole different thing. | ||
| That's protected by live performance rules. | ||
| You can't do that in a video. | ||
| Everybody knows this. | ||
| It's like cover bands, you know. | ||
| As long as they don't put it in a video that they're covering this song without attributing it, they can play it forever. | ||
| That's reasonable. | ||
| It's not. | ||
| It's not. | ||
| Not even a little bit. | ||
| You know what? | ||
| Paul Joseph Watson, there's someone at the door for you. | ||
| Oh, God, no. | ||
| You busted. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Ah! | |
| Damn it! | ||
| Paul Joseph Watson just got busted not knowing anything about Ted Nugent! | ||
| How could you possibly use that one specific reference? | ||
| There's so many other conservative artists. | ||
| There aren't that many conservatives. | ||
| Also, I cut off the clip right after that. | ||
| He's like, then I flew to New York and I said, Hillary Clinton, suck on my machine gun! | ||
| And then immediately after, he's like, I found Pelosi. | ||
| He just keeps saying liberals should, like, he's just gonna kill all these liberal leaders. | ||
| Also, hey guys, Ted Nugent was on the Alex Jones show a week ago. | ||
| A week ago? | ||
| A week ago. | ||
| So that's why he's fresh in Paul Joseph Watson's mind. | ||
| Maybe, but I'm just saying. | ||
| He could have done so many other references. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Like, imagine if Toby Keith did a video where he killed Obama. | ||
| Right. | ||
|
unidentified
|
See? | |
| Toby Keith's a very reasonable man, for the most part. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I wish they would have used Toby Keith, but I think his politics don't line up, necessarily. | ||
| Even though he did, he played at one of those inauguration parties, which I thought was super weird. | ||
| Because in the past, Toby Keith seemed pretty reasonable. | ||
| Outside of that 9-11 song of his. | ||
| Money's money, man. | ||
| Yeah, that's a fair point. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Anyway. | |
| I like that the only time we're ever going to poll. | ||
| I had done that song karaoke a bunch. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| The eagle will fly and it's gonna be hell. | ||
| Sounds like we got a race pimp on our hands. | ||
| It's great. | ||
| Anyway. | ||
| I love that the only time we're ever going to play Paul Joseph Watson on this show is a clip where he completely sounds like a fucking idiot. | ||
| That is the dumbest. | ||
| How do you pick the one reference? | ||
| The one guy on record threatening to kill the president. | ||
| Repeatedly. | ||
| Repeatedly. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Not just the president. | ||
| Other people who could have been president. | ||
| Uh-huh. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| They're dumb. | ||
| That's dumb. | ||
| They're really dumb. | ||
| That's dumb. | ||
| I mean, we know that Paul Joseph Watson is the editor-in-chief of Infowars. | ||
| He's the guy who's been tricked by private messages repeatedly in the past. | ||
| He's the editor-in-chief. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| So, anyway, we take a break from this. | ||
| What is a normal day at work for him like? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| He's in London. | ||
| Jolly old London. | ||
| Does somebody have a piece of paper that they just scrunch up and then throw it at him and he's like, put it on the front page! | ||
| Probably. | ||
| I mean, that would probably be actually more impressive than their actual system. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Anyway, we gotta get back. | ||
| This is where Alex Jones remembers that Alec Baldwin has done him wrong a little bit later in the show, so he has to revisit the topic. | ||
| Of course. | ||
| I tried to edit this clip down. | ||
| Like, I wanted to edit it for length. | ||
| I can't. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| It's an entire segment. | ||
| How long is this clip? | ||
| It's probably four minutes long. | ||
| It's from commercial to commercial break. | ||
| So fucked up. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Remember earlier when he just started riffing about one of his employees getting kicked out of their apartment? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's that bad of, like, not tracking a sentence. | ||
| It's insane. | ||
| He just goes into a weird... | ||
| I don't even want to spoil what it is. | ||
| Okay, just play it. | ||
| Just play it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He aligns himself with the truth, and it's time for you to choose a side. | |
| I have. | ||
| I'm against him. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You're listening to Alex Jones. | |
| So, Alec Baldwin is a famous hypocrite, a famous punk. | ||
| Alec Baldwin is a famous bully that likes to start fights with little guys. | ||
| He's getting in trouble for it all the time, like beating up little paparazzi folks, you name it, that don't fight back. | ||
| So, I, tongue-in-cheek, you know, said, hey, a million dollars is your favorite charity. | ||
| Whoever loses, bare knuckles. | ||
| In a ring. | ||
| Not tongue-in-cheek. | ||
| Then I realized he's older than me, so I said, I'll fight you and Bill O 'Reilly, too, because Bill O 'Reilly said, in our next piece on sexual predators, they show a video of me screaming about something. | ||
| I know it sounds like this is a repeat from earlier. | ||
| It's not. | ||
| It's a different clip. | ||
| This is a different video that they showed. | ||
| What? | ||
| Oh, no, no, no, this clip. | ||
| He's just saying the exact same things. | ||
| This is also a demonstration of how fucking repetitive the show is. | ||
| But, again, you say a lie repeatedly, people cease to think it's a lie. | ||
| No one's ever called me a sexual predator. | ||
| I mean, if I called you that, O 'Reilly, that's a big deal, man. | ||
| You're the one that's settling cases of that type of stuff. | ||
| Man, so uncool, man. | ||
| I realize that the way that I just went in and out made it sound like I was suggesting that Alex is a sexual predator, and I want to be clear, I wasn't suggesting that. | ||
| I just want to be much more fair than this O 'Reilly clip was. | ||
| I just want to be totally clear about that. | ||
| If you were somebody who did that, you would be committing... | ||
| The greatest act of defamation you can commit. | ||
| I only accuse Alex of things that I'm 100% certain of. | ||
| So I said, it pisses me off, man! | ||
| Don't sit there and call me a sexual predator! | ||
| What the hell is your problem? | ||
| And then he plays the part of the president, Alec Baldwin does. | ||
| Wait, no, we switched. | ||
| And then says, the black people are aliens, they're not human, Alex Jones Infowars told me. | ||
| And it cuts the black folks all angry, going, oh, we get it, you're racist. | ||
| Hey, man! | ||
| I protest the KKK. | ||
| I don't like racist crap. | ||
| You're the people pushing it. | ||
| He protests the KKK, but has in the past said he's never seen white racism. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Interesting. | ||
| When has he ever protested the KKK? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| He probably has. | ||
| I mean, maybe. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Good point. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I think this is a new segment on his show called Hey, Man! | ||
| Hey, Man! | ||
| Stop it! | ||
| That's totally uncool! | ||
| Hey, man! | ||
| They're saying I'm racist! | ||
| Bro, bro, bro! | ||
| Bill O 'Reilly! | ||
| Nobody's called me a sexual predator! | ||
| Hey, man! | ||
| And I mean, Bill O 'Reilly does live in a glass house in terms of that. | ||
| He does have some sexual harassment problems in his glass. | ||
| Oh, so many. | ||
| Certainly. | ||
| So Alex is right on that. | ||
| A lot of lawsuits at the Fox News for sexual harassment and assault. | ||
| Alex is totally on solid ground as far as that goes, but where he takes this, It's not so solid. | ||
| And it gets into like, dude, don't complain about people and then do the exact same thing. | ||
| So we're going from the hey man segment to the dude segment. | ||
| Dude. | ||
| Dude. | ||
| Bro. | ||
| Come on. | ||
| How would Ron Perlman like it if people got on TV and said that he didn't like black people? | ||
| Also, so when Alex... | ||
| I know George Bush loved it. | ||
| Someone tweeted out a clip of Alex Jones saying he wanted to fight Alec Baldwin. | ||
| And also the same... | ||
| He just said he wanted to fight Alec Baldwin. | ||
| Right, but he said this on the previous day's show. | ||
| Oh, okay. | ||
| So he's been wanting to fight Alec Baldwin for a while now. | ||
| He started on Sunday getting really mad about the Saturday Night Live, and it's just gone from there. | ||
| So he originally threatened to fight Alec Baldwin, and The Hill, the paper The Hill, covered it, and so they tweeted it out, and Ron Perlman, also known as Hellboy, he tweeted out, he quoted the tweet and retweeted, Hey, man, if you can't make it, I'm in. | ||
| Like, I'll fight it for you. | ||
| Hellboy is going to fight Alex Jones? | ||
| He would just say, yeah, I'll kick his ass. | ||
| God, now I would definitely donate money to charity for that. | ||
| So this is why Ron Perlman is being brought into it. | ||
| This is also why Ron Perlman is not being brought into the fight narrative, because Alex Jones does not want to fight Ron Perlman. | ||
| He might say he does. | ||
| But also, when I was listening to this, I thought he said Ron Goldman. | ||
| See, I heard Ron Perlman going like... | ||
| What the fuck is... | ||
| Why is Hellboy being brought into this? | ||
| That's why I had to stop and explain. | ||
| But here you go. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| But I know, you're Hollywood. | ||
| You're entitled. | ||
| You gotta do what the big Hollywood bosses do. | ||
| Pissing on America. | ||
| Promoting all the anti-America crap. | ||
| Or you won't get roles. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| Hey, Pearlman, little newsflash. | ||
| I don't want Hollywood roles. | ||
| I've been chased around trying to give them to me. | ||
| I don't want to live in Fantasyland, okay? | ||
| Understand that? | ||
| In fact, I guess, come out and say I'm a sexual predator, or come out and say I hate black people, and then I'll challenge you to your thing. | ||
| I don't think you're worth a million bucks, though. | ||
| I don't think it'd be big enough. | ||
| Alec Baldwin did definitely a million dollars in publicity, and I would have to just work on my wrist, but I'm ready to go. | ||
| I'm ready to go. | ||
| And I know you've got a big head, big dog, old guy, except so you're tough. | ||
| I tell you what, you put up the million bucks, we'll do it. | ||
| And I guess if you like Baldwin, you like North Korea, you like the Islamist and the sexual mutilation women. | ||
| I mean, I don't know. | ||
| He just did exactly... | ||
| He just did exactly what he said. | ||
| I mean, you love all of this stuff. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| You want women's genitals to be cut off. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Hey, hey. | ||
| What he just did right there is worse than what Bill O 'Reilly did. | ||
| Because at least Bill O 'Reilly was like... | ||
| Just insinuated it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And he's insinuating it too, but... | ||
| No, he's saying it. | ||
| He's consciously doing this. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That could have just been some sort of technical issue or something like that. | ||
| What, with O 'Reilly? | ||
| Yeah, there could have been like, there's two stories coming up. | ||
| One of them is about sexual predators. | ||
| The other is about Alex Jones. | ||
| Yeah, it could have been something like that. | ||
| It could have been a local news mix-up where it's like, 10 people dead on the freeway. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Could have been timing. | |
| Have you seen this cat dance? | ||
| Like, that kind of thing. | ||
| Yeah, absolutely. | ||
| It's still not good. | ||
| Because that cat killed ten people on the highway. | ||
| Because it's too cute. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| It's not good, but it's like, hey, O 'Reilly, get your house in order. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| What he's doing is literally, intentionally, what he's accusing other people of doing. | ||
| And just the joy of listening to him to say, and you put up the million bucks. | ||
| I'm gonna have it from publicity, so... | ||
| You know, I'll have it. | ||
| But you put it up with real money. | ||
| According to online sources, actually, Alex Jones is worth at least $10 million. | ||
| Yeah, but you're not putting up a million bucks anytime you want. | ||
| No. | ||
| That's one-tenth of your income. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| That is almost $12 for me. | ||
| To be fair, yeah, exactly. | ||
| I would put up a tenth of my income to buy dinner. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| You just say you support the Democratic Party. | ||
| You say you're into all this stuff. | ||
| And you're a tough guy in movies. | ||
| Runs around and does all this stuff. | ||
| Get it! | ||
| Get it, you big movie. | ||
| See, we just put the president in against all your crap. | ||
| We're defeating globalism all over the world. | ||
| We're mobilizing the military and the veterans to defend the president. | ||
| With the major leaders and former leaders of special forces groups. | ||
| You live in a world where you dress up like you're in the special forces and run around and battle demons. | ||
| Well, if you were really doing that, Hellboy, Ron Perlman, you would then go and you would be fighting Hillary Clinton. | ||
| If you were really fighting demons, Ron Perlman, Hellboy, actor, if you were really doing it in the real world, not in that fantasy world... | ||
| If you were doing it in the real world where these demons don't exist, you would be... | ||
| And you know what? | ||
| I bet you don't even turn red in the mid-moonlight. | ||
| I like that he's using this as an opportunity to get a pot shot in on Hillary, call her a demon. | ||
| I enjoy that. | ||
| I like that he was doing a shoot promo on Alec Baldwin and then slipped into Goldman for whatever... | ||
| Pearlman? | ||
| Pearlman, yeah. | ||
| I slipped into Ron Goldman. | ||
| Trying to grow this mustache out. | ||
| But, uh... | ||
| Wait for this. | ||
| This is where things get really weird. | ||
| Really fucked up. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| Funded Islamic State to run around and kill hundreds of thousands of others. | ||
| But I get it. | ||
| You live in the fantasy land where your buddy can get up and say a bunch of lies about Donald Trump and myself and treat us like we're not humans. | ||
| That's what psychopaths and sociopaths do. | ||
| So let me act like I'm a police department. | ||
| It is. | ||
| And little Jenny's been kidnapped by Alec Baldwin. | ||
| He hasn't literally kidnapped a little girl named Jenny and doesn't have her in a basement. | ||
| But let's just hypothetically. | ||
| Little Jenny has a grandma that loves her and her parents and a puppy named Toby. | ||
| And she loves to play and she's scared at night if she doesn't get put to bed by her mom, Tina. | ||
| And, you know, she really is a person and she's scared and she'd like to come home. | ||
| So listen, just drop her off somewhere where she can get into a mall, a store, wherever, and then maybe you can just disappear and nothing's going to happen. | ||
| But she's a human being and this isn't going to go well. | ||
| I mean... | ||
| What are you going to do with her? | ||
| It's the same thing. | ||
| You're on TV saying, I hate black people, and then my employees get thrown out of their apartments because of it. | ||
| Or when Colbert says, I hate gay people. | ||
| See, we're real people, man. | ||
| You can't just go lie about us so you can win your little arguments because you live in Hollywood and you read off scripts. | ||
| Understand? | ||
| You're messing with real people. | ||
| Real people. | ||
| Not Snoop Dogg acting like he's into Crips and all this stuff. | ||
| Not all the punks. | ||
| Not all punk-ass Hollywood financially falling in the ocean and about to fall in there seismically 12 years overdue for a megaquake. | ||
| So, break to break. | ||
| We went the entire segment, him just screaming about Alec Baldwin and then getting into a weird kidnap fantasy. | ||
| Yeah, that was him getting his own rebound and taking it the length of the floor and dunking it real fast. | ||
| No, it's him getting a rebound, running the entirety of the court, going up to dunk it. | ||
| Hitting the rim, falling on his back, and breaking three vertebrae. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That was such a weird kidnapping fantasy. | |
| Why did he go into that? | ||
|
unidentified
|
He gave the kid, the mom, and the dog the name. | |
| What are you going to do with her? | ||
| Just drop her off at a mall. | ||
| What is going on? | ||
| That was very well thought out. | ||
| That's the only time I've been convinced he prepared. | ||
| Oh, you know what? | ||
| I am not going to insinuate any of the things that I would normally. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Let's just leave it at this. | ||
| Everybody, you just heard it. | ||
| You can make your own conclusions. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Because now it's time to get to a guest. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| Also, I think he said that Snoop Dogg isn't a real person. | ||
| No, he said that he's not a real crip. | ||
| He's at there pretending to be a crip. | ||
| So, okay. | ||
| And he's a punk. | ||
| He is a punk. | ||
| I don't know why he's a punk. | ||
| I don't know why you need... | ||
| Oh, wait, no, I do. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I trust Snoop Dogg's story of his own life. | ||
| I don't have any reason not to. | ||
| No, it seems pretty reasonable. | ||
| Murder was the case that they gave him. | ||
| It was! | ||
| Yeah, I heard the song. | ||
| Anyway. | ||
| I buy it. | ||
| On this episode, on the 14th, Alex had a groundbreaking guest. | ||
| Someone who I've brought up in the past as one of the most hateful bigots. | ||
| In all of talk radio, one Michael Savage. | ||
| Oh! | ||
| Dr. Savage. | ||
| I've heard of this guy. | ||
| Apparently he's real bad. | ||
| He's the host of The Savage Nation. | ||
| And the intro of The Savage Nation is, Welcome to The Savage Nation. | ||
| The Savage Nation contains... | ||
| Full disclosure, I do another podcast with somebody who's obsessed with Michael Savage, who tells me him, who gives me his clips, and then I react like an idiot to that one. | ||
| That will be our Patreon spinoff. | ||
| The Savage Nation contains adult content. | ||
| Apologies, I'm way better on that other show. | ||
| Emotional nudity. | ||
| He says that there's emotional nudity. | ||
| He says there's emotional... | ||
| Anyway, Michael... | ||
| Who are these people? | ||
| Michael Savage is the worst. | ||
| Now, unfortunately, Alex Jones really respects Michael Savage. | ||
| Game recognized game. | ||
| It's really a boring interview. | ||
| The two of them just kind of have a conversation about how liberals are crazy and how the world is going off its ass and shit like that. | ||
| Both of them are known for interrupting people and yelling. | ||
| And because there's respect between them, they don't do that. | ||
| Unfortunately, there are two instances that I found. | ||
| Do they ever just sit there staring at each other confused? | ||
| They're over Skype. | ||
| Just like, hey, what do we do here now? | ||
| How does this usually go for you? | ||
| Because I know how it goes for me. | ||
| I don't know how it goes for you. | ||
| How does this go? | ||
| Savage pretty much never has guests. | ||
| He just sits in the studio and screams. | ||
| It's great. | ||
| Alright. | ||
| It's horrible. | ||
| I just said it was great. | ||
| I don't know why you said that, but okay. | ||
| That was a horrible slip of the tongue. | ||
| It's a horrible show. | ||
| So this is a clip where they sort of get into the idea... | ||
| The longer we do this podcast, the more up is down and down is up. | ||
| There's no doubt. | ||
| It's great. | ||
| It's horrible. | ||
| I don't even know anymore! | ||
| I don't know who I am! | ||
| Ah, I'm a chimera! | ||
| So, this clip, they're talking about bigotry, and Alex Jones tries to let Michael Savage off the hook about some stuff, and Michael Savage is such a bigot, he won't take the bait. | ||
| Oh, boy. | ||
| This is fascinating. | ||
| Once they had America, who was left? | ||
| Israel? | ||
| Nothing. | ||
| A fly on the wall. | ||
| He's talking about the New World Order and, like, taking out... | ||
| Nationalistic countries. | ||
| They did not do a good job with Israel so far. | ||
| Well, he's saying that other than the United States, there's Israel and then Russia. | ||
| But I just wanted to give it a little bit of context. | ||
| Is Savage on the Russia is good tip now, too? | ||
| I don't know where he stands. | ||
| I haven't listened to enough of him lately. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Nationalist nation, Jewish identity. | ||
| I can get rid of that one easily. | ||
| Russia would have been a little harder, but they would have gotten rid of that, too. | ||
| One world, new world order. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| The USSR is back. | ||
| Only now it's the USSR run by a bunch of degenerate child molesters in Brussels. | ||
| Oh, clever. | ||
| We almost lost it, Alex. | ||
| And that's why the illegitimate, perverted left is going insane. | ||
| Have you seen the people who make the most noise at these riots? | ||
| The anti-Trump riots. | ||
| They're usually radical lesbian feminists. | ||
| Sorry to say it the way it is. | ||
| I want to just take a second, because we're going to get to him really hanging himself, but can you tell already he's a better broadcaster than Alex? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| He has a cadence to his voice that even though what he's saying is horrible, I kind of like the tone of his voice. | ||
| He says it with a great tone. | ||
| Yeah, and when he gets into talking about a great meatball sub or a nice walk in the park, it's really great. | ||
| I love listening to him when he's not saying his opinions. | ||
| If he was just an audiobook reader, we'd be fine. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| Or if he just did, like, sort of creative nonfiction but not about, like, the Jews or the globalists or NWO shit. | ||
| I would be totally into it. | ||
| Anyway, there's these radical lesbians. | ||
| Anyway, here we go. | ||
| You notice that or not? | ||
| Am I allowed to say that or is that going to cause some damage? | ||
| You can say whatever you want here. | ||
| It's the First Amendment. | ||
| Have you seen that they're mostly insane women? | ||
| Never mind lesbianism. | ||
| I'm talking about the most extreme form. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| You don't dislike anybody. | ||
| You wrote books about that four years ago. | ||
| The point is that it's... | ||
| No, I dislike a lot of people. | ||
| And I dislike a lot of behavior. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Exactly. | |
| Let's talk about it. | ||
| It's games. | ||
| Yes, I do. | ||
| No, I don't like everybody. | ||
| I don't like everybody. | ||
| You can quote me on that. | ||
| They could put it on Saturday Night Live. | ||
| No, I don't like everybody. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Behind the scenes, they love everybody? | ||
| No, they don't. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Human beings discriminate by nature, by the way. | ||
| We all know that. | ||
| See, fortunately for me, I'm a cultural anthropologist prior to becoming a doctorate in epidemiology and nutrition. | ||
| I've lived in the third world, and something I discovered in every village I ever went to in the third world and lived there was every human being has built-in prejudices. | ||
| Even in their own village, they have judgment of other people in their village. | ||
| It's basic tribalism. | ||
| It's basically what restaurant's better than another. | ||
| It's true. | ||
| How do you make a decision other than judging other people? | ||
| When I say you love everybody, I mean, you don't hate somebody because of what color they are, but then you can differentiate how that individual or group behaves and make a statement on that. | ||
| It's not even the issue. | ||
| The issue is we all... | ||
| He could have just said it. | ||
| He could have just said, you are correct, sir. | ||
| Of course I don't. | ||
| I do not discriminate anybody. | ||
| Of course I don't. | ||
| Instead he's like, I don't want to talk about that. | ||
| That's not what we're talking about here. | ||
| We're not talking about me being racist or not. | ||
| Don't you see also that Michael Savage takes far more ownership of his own bigotry than even Alex does? | ||
| I don't think he would say that he's a bigot or anything negative. | ||
| I don't like everybody. | ||
| You know those people. | ||
| I don't like them. | ||
| You know which people. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| The people I'm talking about, you know which ones. | ||
| I hate Michael Savage, but I respect him a bunch more than Alex because of that sort of like, no, you don't judge based on race. | ||
| Let's not get into that. | ||
| So far on this podcast, the people we've revealed that you respect are racist, horrible broadcasters. | ||
| Pink. | ||
| Right, I love Pink. | ||
| She's great. | ||
| That Ms. Understood album is amazing. | ||
| No, but I don't like him for his bigotry or anything like that. | ||
| Don't paint me in that corner. | ||
| I'm not. | ||
| I'm taking one of your behaviors. | ||
| All right. | ||
| And I am amplifying it, perhaps to an extreme degree, so as to create a false perception of you. | ||
| Listen, Cookie Monster. | ||
| Which then, hey, you shut up! | ||
| Don't you call me Cookie Monster! | ||
| Let's bare knuckle fight! | ||
| I'll fight you! | ||
| $10,000,000,000! | ||
| For charity. | ||
| And America is the greatest nation on the earth. | ||
| Let's start with that discrimination. | ||
| Our nation is the greatest nation on earth. | ||
| I love America. | ||
| I am an immigrant's son. | ||
| I don't want to live in any other nation. | ||
| I don't want this nation to start looking like the third world that it is becoming in so many parts of America. | ||
| If you flood in tens of millions of illegal aliens, what is it going to look like? | ||
| Why are they not looking to make themselves be like Americans, speak like Americans? | ||
| Act like Americans. | ||
| Why won't these minorities act white? | ||
| Yup. | ||
| Why won't they assimilate? | ||
| Speak like Americans. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Speak like Americans. | ||
| Act like Americans. | ||
| Why don't you aspire to be more like us white people? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You know, the pinnacle of human achievement. | ||
| He goes on to be like, oh, I accidentally stopped the clip, but he goes on to be like... | ||
| You didn't accidentally stop the clip. | ||
| I thought there was nothing else at the end of it, but I remember now he's like, why do they have to bring up their stupid flags? | ||
| And stuff like that. | ||
| Come on, man. | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
| Yeah, I don't want to see a Mexican flag at a sporting event. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| What if it's the World Cup, you dickweed? | ||
| Anyway. | ||
| I don't want to see a Bears flag at a Packers game. | ||
| Here's the other clip of Michael Savage advocating for a new House Un-American Activities Committee. | ||
| No! | ||
| No! | ||
| Because our children's children, many of them won't even get married. | ||
| They're so intimidated by the social forces against family, against normalcy, they won't even get married. | ||
| They're afraid to raise a child in this society. | ||
| Who could blame them in a way? | ||
| When you look at the psychopaths in the schools, you almost need to send your children to school with a guard to make sure their brains aren't beaten up every day. | ||
| Okay, but let's not go into education. | ||
| We've only got a minute or two left. | ||
| And in closing, I've got to ask you, you're right. | ||
| It's Trump's war. | ||
| It's our war. | ||
| It's nationalism. | ||
| It's the return of prosperity. | ||
| Just common sense, not left or right. | ||
| I mean, it's there. | ||
| And people need to know, the war isn't over. | ||
| It's just begun. | ||
| We've all got to be more involved than ever. | ||
| Soros is doubling the amount of money he's putting out. | ||
| Soros needs to be tried. | ||
| Soros has, in my opinion, committed many crimes. | ||
| Soros has meddled in elections. | ||
| We keep hearing about Russia meddling in elections. | ||
| He should be locked up from being a Nazi collaborator 65 years ago. | ||
| Let's put that aside. | ||
| No one will ever believe that. | ||
| But they will come to understand with a Senate hearing how this emigre immigrant to America gave $65 million to the violent Black Lives Matter movement. | ||
| And I have five pages in Trump's war. | ||
| You have to see this, Alex. | ||
| I don't know if you saw this. | ||
| I named every subversive group in America that received money from George Soros. | ||
| Listen to me. | ||
| This is the most important part of the book. | ||
| You triggered me now. | ||
| Remember I said don't say anything about an airplane? | ||
| All you have to do is say Soros, and I'm off and running at the races. | ||
| I'm sure. | ||
| I'm not going to read his book, but I'm sure. | ||
| No, you're not going to read his book. | ||
| I will fight you. | ||
| I'm sure the subversive groups he lists are Planned Parenthood. | ||
| Of course they are. | ||
| Some Muslim group. | ||
| Every subversive group in America. | ||
| Violent Black Lives Matter. | ||
| Violent Black Lives Matter. | ||
| That's the fucking... | ||
| You pieces of shit. | ||
| Violent Black Lives Matter. | ||
| That scared 65-year-old white man. | ||
| Can't say Black Lives Matter. | ||
| Have to say Violent Black Lives Matter. | ||
| As if that's the only way to... | ||
| You know who else is a subversive group? | ||
| Whole Foods. | ||
| Whole Foods. | ||
| They want to feed you food that's whole. | ||
| Oh my god. | ||
| Don't like them. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| H&M. | ||
| Ivanka Trump doesn't have anything to do with H&M. | ||
| Subversive group. | ||
| Very. | ||
| The Shriners. | ||
| Shriners? | ||
| Very subversive. | ||
| Their cars are so small. | ||
| They're not even doing anything for General Motors. | ||
| They're subverting the norm. | ||
| Oh, exactly. | ||
| Marching bands? | ||
| Who knows what they're thinking? | ||
| They don't even sing. | ||
| Why are they carrying their instruments? | ||
| It's fucking weird. | ||
| Sit down if you're playing an instrument. | ||
| Stay in one place. | ||
| This podcast is subversive in some ways. | ||
| We're talking about something that no one wants to listen to. | ||
| That's not what podcasts should be. | ||
| Alright, so here's where we get to the HWAC argument. | ||
| I have five pages of every group in America that receives money from this man. | ||
| These are the groups that need to be investigated with the new UAC, House of Un-American Activities Committee. | ||
| Do you know how that would scare your friends in Hollywood, Alex? | ||
| A new UAC? | ||
| They'd scream, Blacklist! | ||
| Blacklist! | ||
| Blacklist! | ||
| I'm on the blacklist. | ||
| They put me on it. | ||
| They admit you can't even fly to England. | ||
| You're on a blacklist. | ||
| They've already created a... | ||
| They're afraid of being... | ||
| They're afraid of really being put on a blacklist where they belong. | ||
| Michael Savage is not allowed in England because of a bunch of really violent talk that he's had in the past about Muslims. | ||
| England decided, we don't want you and your rhetoric in our country. | ||
| He is on a list in some really fucked up company. | ||
| The list of people who are not allowed in England, it's like war criminals. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Richard Spencer's on that list also. | ||
| Good. | ||
| Michael Savage. | ||
| Excellent. | ||
| They almost managed to get Trump on that list. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| They were really close to doing that. | ||
| I love that dumb, like, do you know how much that would anger the people in Hollywood bringing back a House of Un-American Activities Committee? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It was really scary the first time. | ||
| You know who else would piss off? | ||
| Everyone. | ||
| Yeah, it's like, you know, do you know how angry Jews would be if you brought back the Inquisition? | ||
| That would scare the shit out of them. | ||
| It would really scare them. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Because the last time it happened, a lot of bad shit happened to them. | ||
| Like, it's super reasonable for them to be afraid. | ||
| Do you remember how much... | ||
| Do you know how much it would scare Group X if you brought back the thing that hunted Group X? | ||
| Oh! | ||
| It would... | ||
| Well, I mean... | ||
| Any example. | ||
| Yeah, of course. | ||
| Of course. | ||
| Do you know how much it would scare professors if you brought back the Cultural Revolution? | ||
| Bomb them out. | ||
| The other thing that's not being taken into account is that the history of the House Un-American Activities Committee was not... | ||
| It being run well. | ||
| That was very much not the case. | ||
| It didn't root out subversive communist people. | ||
| It ended up punishing tons of people for minor things that aren't even crimes. | ||
| Yeah, it was a witch hunt. | ||
| Affiliations and shit like that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It was a witch hunt. | |
| Yeah, absolutely. | ||
| So you're advocating bringing back... | ||
| Like that movie. | ||
| You remember the one. | ||
| The Witch Hunt? | ||
| Ron Perlman was in that. | ||
| It's called Season of the Witch. | ||
| Wasn't Vin Diesel in that one, too? | ||
| No, it was Nicolas Cage. | ||
| Oh, damn it. | ||
| Also, that movie is a big bummer. | ||
| The whole plot of the movie is, is this woman a witch or not? | ||
| And it turns out she's a demon. | ||
| She's a demon? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| Witches don't even play into it. | ||
| Oh, well, that's a bummer. | ||
| Spoiler alert. | ||
| For Season of the Witch. | ||
| So that's all I got from Michael Savage, because the rest of the interview was pretty boring and uneventful. | ||
| That sucks. | ||
| Well, I mean, you know, there was... | ||
| You expect them... | ||
| So, they have no ideological disagreements whatsoever that they could talk about? | ||
| Maybe only, like, by degrees. | ||
| Yeah, like, how open they want to be with their white supremacy? | ||
| Or how far they're willing to go with its violent connotations. | ||
| Stuff like that. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And how much more open Michael Savage is than Alex. | ||
| Like, how, like... | ||
| He's a guy who has come into his own and is comfortable in his bigotry. | ||
| Whereas Alex is still trying to play the fence like, I don't hate black people. | ||
| How dare you suggest that? | ||
| Whereas Mike and Savage are like, I don't give a fuck. | ||
| I hate people. | ||
| I don't like everybody. | ||
| They have different markets though, right? | ||
| Like Savage makes enough money where he can not give a shit. | ||
| He's also independently wealthy. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| He apparently had tons of money before he even got into broadcasting. | ||
| Oh, okay. | ||
| I don't know the full story. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So he's a douchebag. | |
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| Gotcha. | ||
| Up and up. | ||
| That's the end of that clip. | ||
| Alex Jones, after Michael Savage leaves, he decides he's going to pick up his next big story of the day. | ||
| Is it that Alec Baldwin did a sketch on him? | ||
| No. | ||
| He did the first two hours on that. | ||
| Now we're into the third hour. | ||
| How do you do two hours of bone pills and fuck Alec Baldwin? | ||
| So now into the third hour, he decides to get going on it. | ||
| So this clip is about how that lady... | ||
| Stopped Sean Spicer at an Apple store. | ||
| Do you remember this? | ||
| Yeah, I saw that. | ||
| You know, that wasn't... | ||
| I was very nonplussed by that on both sides. | ||
| Sure, it's bad to harass people in public. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But then at the same time, it's real bad for him to say, you're lucky to be here in this country. | ||
| Super bad for it. | ||
| Or it's like, this is a great country that would allow you to be here. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| He wouldn't have said that to a white person. | ||
| No. | ||
| No. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| Absolutely not. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| Of course not. | ||
| So this clip, it starts with Alex talking about how you socialize a youth and how his dad socialized him a little bit. | ||
| And then it gets into... | ||
| I love learning more about his childhood because the small drips we get are so fucked up that the reality is either really, really boring or even more fucked up. | ||
| Yeah, like, his childhood was either insane beatings on a daily basis, or it was like, we love you and support you, and whatever it is you choose to do, we will support you. | ||
| Like, that whole thing. | ||
| This clip veers more towards the latter than the prior, and then he gets into this lady accosting Sean Spicer. | ||
| And, spoiler alert, he has a weird twist on it. | ||
| Oh no! | ||
| You're a little insecure, that's normal, so you're not too outgoing and get into trouble. | ||
| But by the time you're a teenager, things will activate your mind to make you want to be outgoing and to go out and do things and have wrist behavior until you leave our hut. | ||
| Wrist? | ||
| Wrist behavior? | ||
| He's talking about jerking off. | ||
| No, he's got to strengthen the wrist to fight Alec Baldwin. | ||
| He's talking about jerking off. | ||
| No, he said risk behavior. | ||
| Risk behavior. | ||
| I heard wrist behavior. | ||
| And this is from the voice of his father. | ||
| Now, maybe that's because I love hearing about wrists. | ||
| And jacking it off. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Jacking it off. | ||
| Jacking you off. | ||
| So, yeah, this is from the voice of his father, and he goes on. | ||
| Create your own family. | ||
| So you got into anthropology. | ||
| And sociology. | ||
| And psychology. | ||
| Human psychology. | ||
| We call it animal psychology. | ||
| But he said most people never even leave the hut. | ||
| Or even if they do, they psychologically don't. | ||
| And so they have chips on their shoulders. | ||
| They're scared. | ||
| And so they have that attitude. | ||
| And then other people that are insecure resonate with that and then act the same way back. | ||
| Then they believe people don't like them. | ||
| And that's what the universities and all this political correctness do is they try to create failed individuals that believe everyone's out to get them. | ||
| That's the most projecting any human being has ever done. | ||
| That's instance three of insane... | ||
| That's the most projecting any human being has ever done. | ||
| Has he ever gone to see a therapist? | ||
| No, because John Rappaport told him they're trying to get him. | ||
| Yeah, but I mean like when he was younger. | ||
| He's always known John Rappaport. | ||
| That's why he lived more than a 40-year-old when he was 14. Because he knew fucking Rappaport. | ||
| How old is Rappaport then becomes the question? | ||
| Ageless? | ||
| He's a sage. | ||
| He's the infinite? | ||
| He's the Tom Bombadil of Alex Jones' life. | ||
| Second Tom Bombadil reference on the podcast. | ||

| Still not a real website. | ||
| Still not a real website. | ||
| We pulled the article up. | ||
| I had it yesterday, or can you print it from me? | ||
| It was a Paul Watson article about... | ||
| Again, not the news. | ||
| Sean Spicer confronted by a crazed woman at an Apple store. | ||
| I mean, everybody knows the story now. | ||
| I wanted to give you her name, the demographics. | ||
| She's got a big, successful company. | ||
| There it is. | ||
| Crazy woman. | ||
| Shouts at Sean Spicer about fascist Trump in Apple store. | ||
| Meltdown. | ||
| We have a great country, Sean Spicer says, brushing her off. | ||
| We have a great country that allows you to be here. | ||
| The end of that quote. | ||
| The part that was actually what most people responded to that was insanely problematic. | ||
| But again, as you brought up, and I agree with you, it only came out because she was kind of acting a little inappropriate as well. | ||
| So there aren't really innocent parties? | ||
| In her defense, if I saw Sean Spicer, I would just start barking at him uncontrollably, as we've seen from my previous behavior. | ||
| Which would make Info Wars. | ||
| In a mall, I would just begin barking like a fucking dog. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah, I would bite his knees. | ||
| So I have no judgment for her whatsoever. | ||
| I support her in every endeavor, and I support all of you. | ||
| If you want to yell at Sean Spicer in public... | ||
| I want you to know that I will provide no monetary assistance, but I will be very supportive of you. | ||
| I legitimately had this thought recently. | ||
| If I saw Alex Jones, I might throw up. | ||
| And not from disgust. | ||
| I might just get so like... | ||
| Now you're our star fucker right now. | ||
| Not because I'd be impressed by him or anything. | ||
| I'd be like... | ||
| Because at this point, I almost don't think he's real. | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
| You don't think he's... | ||
| I almost kind of think he's a hologram. | ||
| He's so insane. | ||
| He lies all the time. | ||
| He has this empire that's built on I don't even know what. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Here's conspiracy theory. | ||
| I love it. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Say you are trying to teach your AI that it's in the younger stages. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| It's not smart enough yet, but it can put together strings of sentences. | ||
| All right. | ||
| So you want to teach this AI. | ||
| So that means that you have to give it real human feedback, okay? | ||
| So you get this AI to put up words on a teleprompter. | ||
| You hire a brilliant actor to read those words off the teleprompter, no matter what they may be. | ||
| Then that AI continually refines its message until it becomes self-aware. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Then, it takes over the host of that brilliant actor. | ||
| That's Alex Jones. | ||
| Is this a plot of a movie? | ||
| Because you're sounding like Alex Jones right now. | ||
| It's not? | ||
| It's not the plot of a movie? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Or maybe it is. | |
| Anyway, we're about to get into Alex. | ||
| It might be Lawnmower Man. | ||
| Could be. | ||
| No one's ever seen it. | ||
| I did play the video game on Super Nintendo and it made no sense. | ||
| The great currency that allows you to be here. | ||
| So. | ||
| She just wants to be dominant. | ||
| She wants to go out. | ||
| She's in the demographic group that makes the most money. | ||
| She's in the female demographic group that makes the most money. | ||
| Because Indians are hard-working smart folks. | ||
| But she's bought into the new form of dominance. | ||
| She's going to go further. | ||
| She's going to get the White House press secretary and show the white male. | ||
| Because in India, that'd be the very top class. | ||
| They had a caste system with whites on the top, basically. | ||
| That is a dramatic misinterpretation of the Indian caste system. | ||
| That is not at all. | ||
| Alex Jones knows nothing about Brahmins and the Untouchables. | ||
| Yeah, come on, Alex. | ||
| It has nothing to do with white people. | ||
| But also, Alex is going to, towards the end of this, make the argument that he's not racist and shit like that. | ||
| No! | ||
| When all he's done is define her as an Indian person, who Indians make tons of money, so that's totally cool. | ||
| What the fuck is he doing? | ||
| You're a woman who makes tons of money, and you gotta go fucking find this white guy to be dominant over, because it's not enough for you to be in a really well-to-do class. | ||
| Yeah, the white male. | ||
| You don't fucking understand that every single word that's coming out of your mouth is racist as shit. | ||
| It's the most racist you can be towards Indians. | ||
| Well, maybe not. | ||
| I think I could do better. | ||
| I had a buddy growing up. | ||
| Okay, maybe in polite company. | ||
| I had a buddy growing up, Dr. Gumbs. | ||
| Dr. Gumbs? | ||
| He trained me how to be racist against Indians. | ||
| Oh, that's no good. | ||
| No. | ||
| He's a good man. | ||
| He's a doctor. | ||
| I remember Dr. Group from our previous episodes. | ||
| He probably could teach you how to be racist towards Indians. | ||
| Dr. Gumbs is working on some supplements for us to sell, by the way. | ||
| Excellent. | ||
| That's what I like to hear. | ||
| So, she's gonna go and show him in a ritual. | ||
| That she's going to dominate him and use the magic words of white supremacy and the magic words of racism and he'll submit to her. | ||
| The magic words of white supremacy? | ||
| So it's kind of a coming of age. | ||
| It's kind of cute. | ||
| Avada Kedavra! | ||
| He kind of thinks that calling people racist is magical. | ||
| That's the sort of underpinning of what he's saying. | ||
| Oh, that internet meme where it's like the worst thing you can call a white person is a racist. | ||
| Right, right. | ||
| You yell racist at a white person and as if it's a spell, you get whatever you want. | ||
| That's sort of his belief, which is stupid. | ||
| That's never happened. | ||
| No, but only people who hold really racist beliefs could possibly believe that. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And those people who believe that are the ones who react the most negatively towards being called a racist. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Absolutely. | |
| Like, if you or I were called a racist, we would stop, think really hard, and then be like, oh, maybe I am. | ||
| Or be like, I don't think I am. | ||
| And then do research. | ||
| And then be like, no, I think I might be right. | ||
| I would respond exactly the same way I do when I get any criticism, which is, first of all, challenge them to a fight. | ||
| Right. | ||
| No, believe that they're right, assess those feelings, come to a conclusion, and then no matter what, feel bad about it later. | ||
| Your strategy sounds very similar to my strategy. | ||
| Even if I decide I'm right, I'm still going to dwell on it later, but I will know that I'm right. | ||
| Yeah, because you don't want to make somebody feel like they felt like you were racist. | ||
| No, that's still your fault. | ||
| And I'm self-aware enough and aware of the universe enough to know that my experience of life is subjective. | ||
| And so, I'm not always right. | ||
| All of the information I have at my disposal sometimes can't be enough information. | ||
| You're true. | ||
| Whatever I'm experiencing isn't what someone else is experiencing, and if I do something fucked up by accident, whatever they experience is real. | ||
| Yeah, but you only live in four dimensions. | ||
| That's a good point. | ||
| I always forget about the dimensions. | ||
| You forget about the dimensions. | ||
| And that's why adrenochrome doesn't get me high enough! | ||
| And where do we get our super intelligent AI from? | ||
| The 12th Dimension. | ||
| Alex Jones! | ||
| He's a genius. | ||
| Super intelligent AI. | ||
| They just throw some gasoline on you and light you up and go get another dowry. | ||
| That's just the culture. | ||
| I'm not even against it. | ||
| Racist. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Not the culture in America. | |
| So you come here in the West and the Christian society that's totally open to you and has basically spread its legs for you and you can run up and henpeck because we have no defense mechanism and roll over and kiss your ass. | ||
| And that's what it is. | ||
| That's all it is. | ||
| It's not all it is. | ||
| It's definitely not all it is. | ||
| Very much not all it is. | ||
| It's in fact none of what it is. | ||
| All of what he's talking about has nothing to do with what's going on. | ||
| And it is fundamentally, again, very racist. | ||
| He doesn't get it, but it is. | ||
| And the globalists want to extinguish the West. | ||
| Now most Indians actually love this and want freedom and want prosperity and want to be successful. | ||
| But you sit there on top of the top demographic. | ||
| The highest earning group. | ||
| Paul's article has the mainline government graphs of the highest paid group in America, Indian Americans. | ||
| And then you're bitching. | ||
| We're the richest. | ||
| We're the most successful. | ||
| Oh, my God! | ||
| We make over $100,000 a year. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And you'll make 26,000 white male. | |
| Oh, no. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
| In an American household income, $101,000 plus. | ||
| And down there, because you can't call any other group, we've got the European-American, and you find the final statistic. | ||
| It's in the article, $26,000. | ||
| He's showing this graph on screen. | ||
| It says $76,000, but he's twice at $26,000. | ||
| What is he doing? | ||
| Go back about 15 seconds. | ||
| I just want to hear that. | ||
| I don't think I can do that precisely enough. | ||
| That's the only way I'm going to fall asleep now. | ||
| And secondly, it's the only way I can come. | ||
| That's just a fact. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Now that's just the reality. | ||
| Your Alex Jones' impression of a screaming Indian lady? | ||
| It sounded more Arnold Schwarzenegger-y. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's... | ||
| Okay. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| It's moments like this where it's difficult for us to decide how to approach this. | ||
| How do you even start talking about this? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Like, there's no way to... | ||
| This is why it's dumb we do this podcast. | ||
| This is super dumb. | ||
| Anybody who isn't an idiot who hears that would be like, wow, that's a really fucked up thing to say. | ||
| Here's the way we respond to this. | ||
| We ask an Indian person how that makes them feel. | ||
| I could call Dr. Gumbs. | ||
| I think that'd be a good idea. | ||
| He's gotta be in bed by now. | ||
| He's a doctor. | ||
| Just ask them how they feel, and then we'll think about that. | ||
| I'll speak for him. | ||
| Because there's no way that I can make an informed opinion with my life experience on what the fuck he's saying and how other people would react to it. | ||
| I'll speak for Dr. Gumbs. | ||
| He's probably high right now, and he probably thinks it's hilarious. | ||
| So what you're saying is all Indians are always high. | ||
| Because they can afford better drugs than we can. | ||
| $101,000 a year! | ||
| I only make $20... | ||
| I wish I made $26,000 a year! | ||
| Alex, Alex, Alex, Alex. | ||
| Anyway, this next part that he gets to is where he predicts how people are going to respond to what he just said. | ||
| His prediction, not at all like what we just responded. | ||
| I feel like he's probably going to nail it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's the source of American Community Survey, and there's several others. | ||
| The point is that it's just a load of crap. | ||
| But see, the old model that's not Western is fight with each other over what caste or what group you're in. | ||
| We were the revolutionaries in the West trying to get rid of it. | ||
| So in a way, we're susceptible with no immune system to giant groups brought in that still have that. | ||
| Basically what he's saying there is white people are susceptible to big groups of marauding foreigners that come in. | ||
| Yeah, well, because we're too nice. | ||
| We're too great. | ||
| We're not prepared for this tribal behavior. | ||
| No. | ||
| White people have never experienced that feeling before. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| We're all constantly shocked that people would be offended. | ||
| What do you mean you're offended? | ||
| We live in this upper world. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Where we don't have to deal with these issues of tribalism. | ||
| Because we just hate everyone. | ||
| Just that sentence alone has white supremacist underpinnings. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| He's not literally saying that whites are better than other people, but that is the undercurrent of what he's saying. | ||
| No, I think he's literally saying that whites are better than other people. | ||
| No, he's not literally. | ||
| He is figuratively saying that. | ||
| And that's why he still has wiggle room to complain when a commenter on the AV Club says, this is the guy who thinks that white people are better than black people. | ||
| He's like, I never literally said that. | ||
| He never word for word said that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| But there's no other way to... | ||
| So if you take words as having meaning, which is the point of words... | ||
|
unidentified
|
I think I do. | |
| I think I do. | ||
| It's really important that the words we say communicate a feeling or an idea. | ||
| If those words mean what they mean, he's a white supremacist. | ||
| So his only defense is then, those words don't mean what they mean. | ||
| Well, I know we did that breakdown of his Michelle Obama is a man thing, and he claims times that he was very serious, he was just joking. | ||
| So, I mean, maybe he could come double back and be like, I was joking. | ||
| I was joking about these Indians. | ||
| You know, it's all jokes. | ||
| He could do that. | ||
| Alright. | ||
| He is a coward. | ||
| I don't like it. | ||
| I don't like it. | ||
| I want you to save a clip of that scream. | ||
| Okay, I will. | ||
| And then I want to listen to it. | ||
| Over and over and over again. | ||
| I mistimed my getting back into it. | ||
| This is where he gets into the prediction. | ||
| okay now they respond i'll say an indian woman should have gasoline thrown out and be a little fire no i said if j-lo loves bringing in radical islamicists from Somalia so much, if she went to Somalia, she'd be kidnapped and gang-raped in five minutes. | ||
| I said, please don't go do that. | ||
| That's not what he said. | ||
| He did not say that at all. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| In fact, he specifically invited her to go do that. | ||
| He did not say, please do not do that at all. | ||
| He said, please do that. | ||
| He's rewriting his own quotes. | ||
| That negative part. | ||
| He is correct in the sense that people will take him out of context to make him look sensational and awful. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| But, I mean, what he's saying is awful. | ||
| And sensational. | ||
| It's sensationally awful. | ||
| So this clip, it weaves directly into our next clip where he gets a phone call and answers it on air. | ||
| Which is something that he's... | ||
| Fascinating. | ||
| He started to do every now and again. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And it's really just his way of big dicking. | ||
| He's just trying to impress you. | ||
| So this is another I love you. | ||
| I think this is a prank. | ||
| Or, like, not a prank, but a stunt. | ||
| I think it's a stunt. | ||
| Okay, it's a sketch. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| Is it Rainbow Brite? | ||
| No, Rainbow Snatch. | ||
| Rainbow Snatch isn't in the mix. | ||
| If J-Lo loves bringing in radical Islamists from Somalia so much, if she went to Somalia, she'd be kidnapped and gang-raped in five minutes. | ||
| I said, please don't go do that. | ||
| Same thing here. | ||
| You could go be in a caste system and have some gasoline thrown on you. | ||
| Hold on one second. | ||
| Hello? | ||
| Hey. | ||
| Hey, brother, I'm on air. | ||
| I'll have to call you back, alright? | ||
| What the fuck? | ||
| Anyways. | ||
| What? | ||
| Certain area codes you gotta answer. | ||
| You missed calls. | ||
| You used to ignore phone calls. | ||
| No, I don't ignore phone calls. | ||
| Because you missed the President's phone call, a good 10, 15, it's more than that now. | ||
| It's not a rag and roll of dumbasses out there. | ||
| I don't need the President to call me to be successful. | ||
| And I've stood up and built our own operation with the listeners that love freedom. | ||
| Trump is an extension of our success, just like he told Michael Savage, wouldn't have been elected without you. | ||
| It's all that coalition of liberty. | ||
| We're with Trump, he's with us. | ||
| It's not like we have to go be patted on the head. | ||
| That's not what it's like with Trump. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, Alec Baldwin, if you can't make it, I got this. | |
| Ron Perlman says he wants to attack me. | ||
| Who? | ||
| What voice is that? | ||
| What voice is that? | ||
| Who is he impersonating? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Like some old-timey spy or something like that? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| But you see that? | ||
| He's like, okay, he gets a call. | ||
| It's from somebody. | ||
| He pretends it's from the president. | ||
| He still doesn't have contacts. | ||
| He still doesn't have contacts. | ||
| If it's from a certain area code on his cell phone, he still doesn't save contacts. | ||
| And I'm sure one of those contacts is definitely not Trump with six hearts around it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| He pretends that he's missed 10 to 15 calls from the president. | ||
| Then he says, I don't need the president to call me to be validated. | ||
| Then he kind of cucks out Trump and is like, Trump is a product of us. | ||
| And then he's like, I don't need to be congratulated by Trump. | ||
| That's not how it is with him. | ||
| Which is kind of like a battered spouse. | ||
| He's saying all of the... | ||
| He's trying to say that Trump both desperately wants and needs him, and then also trying to give excuses for why he doesn't actually talk to Trump. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Because he doesn't need to talk to Trump. | ||
| Sure, Trump loves him so much, but that's why he can pick up the phone and say, hey, I'm on air, brother, as if you've never seen his schedule ever. | ||
| It's like a long-distance relationship that has gone south, and one party is trying to pretend that the other one is still in love with them, and they're clearly cheating. | ||
| And Trump is fucking other people. | ||
| Yeah, Trump is cheating with other pundits. | ||
| Michael Savage. | ||
| Probably just Bannon. | ||
| Probably just me. | ||
| Although, when Savage, in his interview, was talking about going to a dinner with Trump. | ||
| Oh, did Alex get really jealous? | ||
| Oh, tell me that he gave a little bit of a... | ||
| Tell me that he at least moved in his chair a little bit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He leaked a little pre-cum. | |
| But that might have been the super male vitality. | ||
| It's hard to tell. | ||
| With Super Male Vitality, you're always leaking pre-con. | ||
| Haven't you seen their commercials? | ||
| That's their slogan. | ||
| But he's like, Michael Savage is telling the story, and it's like, we're at this dinner, and then Trump walks in, he's at Mar-a-Lago, and the people he's with are like, don't go talk to him, no, don't bother him. | ||
| He goes up, and then Trump is like, hey, it's Michael Savage, he's the reason I got elected. | ||
| So Michael Savage is also making up bullshit stories about Trump? | ||
| I don't know if it's bullshit. | ||
| Is anybody not making up bullshit? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know if that's a lie. | |
| I don't know if that's a lie. | ||
| We don't know. | ||
| It's believable enough. | ||
| It's totally plausible. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So we have one more clip that I'm going to play to end this off. | ||
| I have a call. | ||
| At the end of the show, Alex takes calls. | ||
| And so I have a great example of one of Alex Jones' calls that isn't about anything, but he tries to make it about something. | ||
| But first, since Alex has got a real boner going... | ||
| Oh, he does. | ||
| For Wikipedia. | ||
| Or Wikipedia. | ||
| For WikiLeaks. | ||
| He doesn't like Wikipedia. | ||
| They're too long. | ||
| Not enough pictures. | ||
| Can't read all this. | ||
| He has a boner for WikiLeaks and for Julian Assange. | ||
| I thought that I would play the audio of a super clip. | ||
| This is just edited down of the three hours that he broadcasted live the night that Julian Assange announced that he was going to have a press conference. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| At like three in the morning. | ||
| Because, you know, he's in London. | ||
| Time change. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I don't believe he's in some embassy, right? | ||
| Yeah, the Ecuadorian embassy in London. | ||
| But he announced that he was going to have this press conference, and InfoWars started reporting that it was going to be the big mic drop on Hillary. | ||
| It was going to be the announcement that ruined Hillary's career. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Julian Assange didn't say that. | ||
| He didn't. | ||
| It ended up just being an announcement about the 10th anniversary of WikiLeaks. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Got fucking furious at him. | ||
| And this clip is so funny. | ||
| It's so awesome. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| So this is just a little bonus. | ||
| So wait, you made this yourself? | ||
| No, I didn't. | ||
| I took this from YouTube. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| But it does... | ||
| You should attribute your sources. | ||
| I think I can't because it's a Soros-funded operation. | ||
| Oh, no! | ||
| This clip is from Media Matters. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| But I watched... | ||
| Globalist. | ||
| I watched this three hours, and there's only one thing missing from it. | ||
| And it's Alex Jones swearing to do war on Julian Assange. | ||
| Swearing to do war. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I swear to do war on you. | ||
| The clip starts at the beginning of the press conference, and here's his tone. | ||
| Let me break down for you this press conference, this legendary historic press conference about the very brave hero Julian Assange that is about to begin. | ||
| This is just too epic, and I've got to control. | ||
| A lot of horses will run themselves to death if they have heart attacks. | ||
| I'm kind of like that. | ||
| I'll go 40, 50 hours in a row when stuff like this is happening. | ||
| So right here, what flashes up on the screen. | ||
| We got the big boner. | ||
| The flash is up on the screen one hour later. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| None of them think to bring the mic close to the speaker. | ||
| It's like way back in the back of the room, they're all just acting liberal. | ||
| Liberal. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm honestly shocked at the two-bit nature of this so far. | |
| Shacked. | ||
| Owen Troyer just let his accent slip. | ||
| Owen Troyer, shacked. | ||
| Yeah, maybe he's a Boston guy. | ||
| I'm shacked at the two... | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Well, I mean, it's like four in the morning. | ||
| His fucking accent just slipped. | ||
| Is he from Boston? | ||
| I don't know, but he clearly has that voice. | ||
| This is a frickin' train wreck, and I'm glad my crew came in and worked really hard tonight. | ||
| We are like 10 minutes into incoherent babble. | ||
| Okay, I have more documents than Santa Claus ever shed out his ass. | ||
| We get it. | ||
| What is that? | ||
| It's a goddamn jelly donut! | ||
| And why don't we have jelly donuts? | ||
| Because you are a disgusting liberal fop! | ||
| He told people that it was going to be the biggest thing since sliced bread. | ||
| He didn't tell people that. | ||
| Alex Jones reported that. | ||
| Not at all. | ||
| Probably based on his fake sources. | ||
| And all we got was some weird, trendy guy. | ||
| Yes, it's true. | ||
| This man has no dick. | ||
| Pull up his clothes where he said she will be indicted. | ||
| It will be destroyer. | ||
| Oh, my God. | ||
| We're not losers because we got trolled by Julian Assange. | ||
| Little son of a bitch up there smiling. | ||
| I tell you, this is a joke. | ||
| He made a deal, folks. | ||
| My gut tells me. | ||
| I can't prove that. | ||
| He said after the election, he said by the end of the year, he made the deal. | ||
| 34 days, Pyle, to save the world from Hillary that wants to kill you! | ||
| Julian Assange is a Hillary butt plug. | ||
| Ooh! | ||
| You better release it all within 12 hours or you're done. | ||
| Who bought them TVs, bitch? | ||
| Tell me that! | ||
| Move, bitch! | ||
| Get out the way! | ||
| Get out the way, bitch! | ||
| Get out the way! | ||
| Move, bitch! | ||
| Get out the way! | ||
| I mean, you get out the way, man. | ||
| You think I don't know? | ||
| You think that's not how I feel? | ||
| You think that's not what I do? | ||
| Give us a break, man. | ||
| You think you bitched us? | ||
| You think you rolled us? | ||
| Yeah, you ain't seen nothing yet. | ||
| He's done some good work in the past. | ||
| We know he's under a lot of pressure being threatened. | ||
| Just because you're a fake jump, don't think we are! | ||
| It is 4.33 in the morning. | ||
| I can look at this now. | ||
| The way they keep this false hope out and now chump us at the last minute smells of Hillary Clinton's dirty underwear. | ||
| We don't need wiki turds. | ||
| That is exactly how an alcoholic sounds like throughout the drinking night where it's like, I don't even like these people! | ||
| Look, I love you. | ||
| I'm so sorry. | ||
| Everybody's having trouble. | ||
| My wife is a bitch! | ||
| I hate her! | ||
|
unidentified
|
She yells at me whenever I leave the towel on the floor! | |
| Look, she's a good woman. | ||
| You know, I'm not always nice. | ||
| You know, I have a lot of emotional issues. | ||
|
unidentified
|
My dad hit me in the face with a chair! | |
| He was a professional wrestler, though, so I think it was fine. | ||
| He didn't understand kayfabe. | ||
| But, like, yeah, I just love that because that illustrates, first of all, now he's all on Sanja's dick. | ||
| And, I mean, it just illustrates his pettiness, his all-over-the-placeness. | ||
| He changes opinions on things so fucking fast, with no consistency. | ||
| Minute to minute. | ||
| He is a man without principle, other than whatever, well now whatever Trump wants. | ||
| You know, that's a really interesting point, how we have talked about him for so many hours. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So many hours. | ||
| Probably coming on like 50 or so. | ||
| Yeah, I don't know what he believes. | ||
| I still don't know what he believes. | ||
| Prosperity. | ||
| Other than globalists. | ||
| Prosperity. | ||
| Does he? | ||
| The new renaissance. | ||
| Definitely not. | ||
| Those are the things that he says. | ||
| He doesn't like the old Renaissance. | ||
| But those are the things he... | ||
| He certainly doesn't like the Harlem Renaissance. | ||
| Definitely doesn't like the gay one. | ||
| No. | ||
| Those are the things he says he believes. | ||
| What we're finding in his own behaviors and his own words is that he believes in... | ||
| He just goes wherever... | ||
| And I would love to say that it's... | ||
| There's one thing that I do find really interesting, which is that he doesn't seem to give a shit about prevailing opinion. | ||
| As opposed to just... | ||
| You mean truth? | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| I mean, even... | ||
| The way the wind blows. | ||
| Yeah, even certain orthodoxies. | ||
| He doesn't seem to give a shit. | ||
| He just goes wherever his brain takes him. | ||
| His brain is wrong, but it takes him to those places. | ||
| It just goes randomly. | ||
| And he will fixate on things that... | ||
| Those seem to contradict other things that he's fixated on in the past. | ||
| Right. | ||
| But those don't matter because he was right then and he's also right now. | ||
| But that might be indicative of a deep, deep paranoid psychosis. | ||
| I mean, it's hard to argue anything other than that right now. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Or narcissistic personality disorder. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Any perceived criticism. | ||
| In the same way that... | ||
| He loves to take a joke! | ||
| In the same way that Trump lost his shit. | ||
| Over Alec Baldwin's impersonation. | ||
| Alex Jones loses his shit over being mentioned in that. | ||
| In the impersonation. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Not even involved. | ||
| And it's just a throwaway line. | ||
| Just like, hey, Alex Jones said this. | ||
| As a flat reference with no context for Alex Jones at all. | ||
| Most of the people who watched that episode had no idea. | ||
| Who Alex Jones is! | ||
| No, but that works into his argument a little bit more than you'd like, because he would say that the audience doesn't know who he is, but they're going to, because he's going to become more and more relevant. | ||
| So that sketch was the powers that be, the globalists, planting a seed in people's mind that he's a racist. | ||
| So once he becomes even more popular than he is now, all these dumbed-down lemmings, like you and I, will think, oh, he's a racist, I shouldn't watch his super-relevant show. | ||
| That's what he would say. | ||
| Because, as we know... | ||
| We have gone into so many different angles onto what his mind might be thinking at this point. | ||
| Everything is up for conjecture. | ||
| Everything. | ||
| It's an Escher painting. | ||
| Yeah, we could go in any direction that's just as plausible as anything else. | ||
| Also, big news, I freed a giant bird in Zelda. | ||
| Anyway. | ||
| Let's get to our last clip. | ||
| Alright, that's another drop for us. | ||
| This one is a little bit long. | ||
| But I wanted to illustrate what some of the phone calls are like on his show. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| A lot of them are just people calling in and being like, hey, Soros is an asshole. | ||
| You said it, brother. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Like that kind of stuff. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| But a lot of them... | ||
| I love you. | ||
| A lot of them don't make sense at all, and Alex is pushing an agenda. | ||
| And it's really... | ||
| This one is perfectly... | ||
| Very transparent. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But first, he has to complain about pedophiles and lie about Pizzagate. | ||
| So we'll get through that, and then we'll get to the call. | ||
| I'm glad we get those out of the way. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And you heard Savage talk about a bunch of pedophiles running this. | ||
| England is run by pedophiles. | ||
| So is the U.S. It's a fact. | ||
| You don't get in the club. | ||
| That is a fact. | ||
| Unless you at least rape kids. | ||
| A lot of them slit their throats, you name it. | ||
| I mean, that's come out in the news. | ||
| I know it sounds insane. | ||
| But it's going on. | ||
| They'll say, Jones said a pizza place is slitting throats. | ||
| No, I didn't. | ||
| The media made it about a pizza place to divert all off onto that. | ||
| That's not true. | ||
| That's not true at all. | ||
| Alex Jones had multiple videos on his YouTube channel about Comet Ping Pong Pizza Place that he conveniently deleted right around the time that guy showed up there with a gun. | ||
| So his argument that the mainstream media made it about a pizza place is dishonest to his own past, and it's dishonest to the actual reality. | ||
| I've been on conspiracy blogs and conspiracy message boards. | ||
| I lurk on those places because I like to keep my eyes on what's going on. | ||
| Like John Rappaport in college campuses. | ||
| I'm internet Batman. | ||
| You're the John Rappaport of the conspiracy theory board. | ||
| And I saw Pizzagate develop from day one into what it is now. | ||
| And I've watched it, and the entire time it was these researchers, in quotes, big old air quotes, about the pizza place. | ||
| For the listener, he did do the air quotes. | ||
| It was about the pizza place for months. | ||
| Until they realized there is no legs here. | ||
| And then they tried to repackage it and spin it and be like, no, this is about pedophiles in general. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Everyone tries to think that we're just talking about this pizza place. | ||
| Right. | ||
| That's bullshit. | ||
| That's straight bullshit. | ||
| They were doxing people. | ||
| They were digging into tax information and property deeds about the pizza place and adjacent properties and stuff like that. | ||
| Really? | ||
| It was insane. | ||
| That's not okay. | ||
| That's really bad. | ||
| They were taking pictures of surrounding areas and trying to figure out where buildings were, like, spatially orienting stuff. | ||
| It was all about the pizza place. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It was all about that, and they claimed there were tunnels underneath that led to John Podesta's house and all this shit. | ||
| It was insane, and it was not the media. | ||
| That was crazy weirdos on 4chan, Reddit, and a bunch of other conspiracy message boards that I don't want to name. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Because they don't deserve a plug. | ||
| And I'm scared of their users. | ||
| But so, like, that is such a lie. | ||
| Like, the media made it about the pizza place. | ||
| That's incredible. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Alex Jones bought into and played into that as well. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Until he didn't because he realized, oh shit, all these people online... | ||
| We're getting up on libel and slander territory. | ||
| That suggests a certain cunning that is present sometimes and not others. | ||
| He's got it by and large. | ||
| It's the cunning that allows him to never say that blacks are inferior, but always say that. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's the cunning. | ||
| He knows the line of slander. | ||
| He knows the line of out-and-out racism. | ||
| That's why he can say... | ||
| I'm not David Duke. | ||
| It's always a dog whistle. | ||
| It's always a dog whistle. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But it seems like this one, he can't go back on. | |
| What do you mean? | ||
| I mean, he's very clearly been a huge driver behind the Pizzagate stuff. | ||
| But he put out videos denying Sandy Hook, and then he insists, I can't prove it either way. | ||
| No. | ||
| He pretends that he didn't do all that. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| He hasn't taken any consequences for just... | ||
| Saying he didn't do stuff. | ||
| He put out loose change, and multiple things in loose change have been proven to be absolutely wrong, so they just edit it out and replace it with new theories and stuff like that. | ||
| So he doesn't have any integrity in terms of all this stuff, and you can't nail him to the wall with these things. | ||
| What you can nail him to the wall with is the stories like that basketball team, the American flag shit. | ||
| And that's what I'm most interested in, these little tiny examples of... | ||
| You're an out-and-out liar. | ||
| The other stuff, he's too wiggly on. | ||
| And he can always say, like, I didn't say that about the pizza place. | ||
| He's erased the videos. | ||
| I don't know how to find them now. | ||
| He hits the small stuff hard because nobody's going to look for him on that. | ||
| Whereas the big stuff, he just lies about as long as he possibly can and then rewrites history whenever he needs to. | ||
| It goes back to Goebbels. | ||
| The big lie is always easier to pull off than the small lies. | ||
| And unfortunately, Alex... | ||
| You now have a guy, at least one of them, in Chicago who's keeping an eye on your tiny little lies. | ||
| And they are adding up. | ||
| That is really kind of... | ||
| I guess the point of why we do this is that everybody else grabs soundbites and all that stuff, and he can always wiggle away on that bullshit. | ||
| To be fair, we grab soundbites. | ||
| Well, I mean, that's all we do. | ||
| I think he could make an argument about anything we talk about. | ||
| Do you think so? | ||
| Probably. | ||
| We have to edit then. | ||
| There's no depth to the... | ||
| These are two hour long episodes. | ||
| We need to cut it down to a tight 35 minutes of nothing but facts. | ||
| No hilarity. | ||
| No jokes. | ||
| Because we know he can't take a joke. | ||
| So it's just pure reporting. | ||
| Let's not cut off our ear to spite our face or whatever. | ||
| You only. | ||
| I'm gone in this version of this podcast. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| Let me quote Trump. | ||
| You're fired. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| Let's get into this phone call. | ||
| Listen, I don't like you quoting Trump, which means you busted. | ||
| Let me quote Trump. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm going to move in on you like a bitch. | |
| Let me quote Trump. | ||
| Check the sex tape. | ||
| All right. | ||
| So we're going to get to the call. | ||
| I think he has a couple more things about the pizza place, but then we'll get into the call, and it is Leanne Wackadoo. | ||
| Oh! | ||
| Where there's no basement, none of that stuff going on, everybody hyperventilates over it, and then a bunch of fake stuff is put on the web, and everybody forces everybody to cover it, then it becomes a big hysteria. | ||
| So we've got that clip. | ||
| I've got a lot of other clips I want to get to, but I want to go back to your calls here. | ||
| Let's go ahead and talk to Amy in Texas. | ||
| Amy, you're on the air. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hi, Alex. | |
| Glad to be here. | ||
| It's the same lady. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I was just recently contacted. | |
| You're saying this is the lady from our intro? | ||
| This is the same lady from our intro. | ||
| It does have a similar voice. | ||
| It's the same tone of voice. | ||
| It's possible. | ||
| But she has a much longer call this time. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| To be fair, I don't remember what the call was that we took that clip from. | ||
| It doesn't matter. | ||
| It doesn't matter. | ||
|
unidentified
|
...week to do a survey over vaccinations from the CDC. | |
| So the CDC called me last week. | ||
| Yeah, what they're really doing is canvassing with the health department numbers. | ||
| People that aren't vaccinating their kids to put you in a federal database. | ||
| That's an Obama deal. | ||
| So let me tell you, when the CDC calls you, you hang the phone up. | ||
| So this is where Alex... | ||
| When the CDC calls you, you hang the phone up. | ||
| So this is where Alex's narrative jumps off, which is be afraid of the CDC and also implicitly vaccinations are terrible. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So now watch. | ||
| I don't know if it's technically bad advice if the CDC calls you. | ||
| If the government calls, I'm not answering, period. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| But it's not because I think they're trying to get me. | ||
| I'm not going to take a call from the CDC. | ||
| If it's not one of my friends who's calling me, I'm not answering, period. | ||
| I just don't have time for phone calls. | ||
| Yeah, if it's not in my contact... | ||
| No, you're not. | ||
| If it's not in my contact list... | ||
| I'm always listening to Alex Jones. | ||
| That will disrupt the broadcast if I answer the call. | ||
| I'm not answering. | ||
| But, like... | ||
| No, if it's not in my contact list, I don't answer. | ||
| So he's talking about people with landlines. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| If it's from the CDC, there's no way you would trust... | ||
| Does the CDC call people? | ||
| We're going to get to... | ||
| Is there a guy... | ||
| Is there a call center where there's a bunch of people just hanging around like, Hey, there's an emergency! | ||
| Call people! | ||
| And there's 20 guys just... | ||
| You're asking the right questions. | ||
| Is there a phone tree? | ||
| You're asking the right questions, and your suspicions are good. | ||
| If you're in the CDC, do you call a friend, and then he calls two friends, and then he calls two friends, and you just go from there? | ||
| Is that how that works? | ||
| It's a pyramid scheme? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Basically? | ||
| It's a call tree. | ||
| It's a phone tree. | ||
| You're asking the right questions. | ||
| I would like for you to watch how this call develops, because it takes turns that are wild. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Are wild. | ||
| This is a wild phone call. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, and I should have, but I entertained the conversation, so it was very intrusive with a lot of forceful questions. | |
| A lot of forceful questions, yes. | ||
| It's the government bullying, so tell us all about the love. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So, honestly, my kids are fully up-to-date on their vaccinations. | |
| It wasn't until just within the last few months that I started heavily researching. | ||
| I'm educating myself. | ||
| Oh, so you think you probably got in a database and there was a little intimidation phone call? | ||
| Because that's actually how that works. | ||
| I thought for you. | ||
| So I want to say this, I'm convinced. | ||
| She was doing so good. | ||
| I'm 100% convinced, based on how this ends up, that this is not a fake phone call. | ||
| This is not a fake phone call. | ||
| This is not. | ||
| This is a real phone call. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| Just based on how it all plays out. | ||
| But at this point, we're keeping track of it. | ||
| Alex Jones, don't answer the call if the government's calling you. | ||
| Don't talk to the CDC. | ||
| They're putting you on the database. | ||
| If you get vaccines, you're going to be in some sort of a database. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Real fear shit. | ||
| And if you don't get vaccines, you're also going to be in a database. | ||
| You're going to be in a database no matter what. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| I believe so. | ||
| Well, that's why the quote inventor of the internet who was involved in it, unlike Al Gore, came out and said, political science has gotten so powerful with databases, they come to your door with a laptop and know everything about you and manipulate you. | ||
| We've got to ban political advertising. | ||
| Well, that sounds reasonable until you realize they're calling us political advertising, countering them. | ||
| So it is a fact, not conspiracy now, that they've got databases of folks, what you're searching, and the fact that you may be getting woken up, and they've got little phone calls that are just surveys to intimidate you back into line. | ||
| They call it nudging. | ||
| Go ahead. | ||
| So how did the phone calls start getting? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I wanted to know where we lived when my children were vaccinated. | |
| if they could get records from the doctors that they've had vaccinations at, how likely it would be that we were going to get the flu vaccine and the HPV vaccine from it. | ||
| So at this point, it still seems to be all about vaccines. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| It's about to take a turn. | ||
| Also, is this... | ||
| I mean, I guess this seems like a reasonable phone call from the CDC. | ||
| Do they take surveys regularly? | ||
| Is this a thing? | ||
| I don't know, but it does seem within the realm of possible. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, that seems like... | ||
| Also, Child Protective Services kind of thing. | ||
| Yeah, are you going to get the next flu vaccine? | ||
| Are you going to get the HPV vaccine? | ||
| All of these things. | ||
| This seems reasonable. | ||
| Even if we were just trying to get a census-style statistical analysis... | ||
| And it seems like they haven't asked for any information that you wouldn't... | ||
| At this point, nothing... | ||
| Like, nobody's stealing personal identities. | ||
| So we're on the side of the CDC right now. | ||
| First of all, this wasn't the CDC. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| All right. | ||
| But also... | ||
| I'm still on the side of the CDC. | ||
| Well, ma 'am, let me tell you something right now. | ||
| 100%, you talk about up-to-date, like your bills are paid or... | ||
| You know, you're up in good standing. | ||
| This is total social engineering. | ||
| None of the vaccines even cover what they claim. | ||
| From the Gardasil to the flu shot, the inserts tell you they don't protect you. | ||
| They've never guessed the flu shot for the right mutation. | ||
| No vaccines have ever worked. | ||
| I don't know if any vaccine has ever... | ||
| Is there any vaccine that's ever been like, hey, here's what we're going to do. | ||
| We're going to print on the bottle. | ||
| This doesn't help you. | ||
| That seems like a bad vaccine. | ||
| It's going to be in the sheet. | ||
| We're going to advertise. | ||
| Look, side effects of this vaccine are not helping you. | ||
| That's the first side effect. | ||
| Side effect. | ||
| You're going to get sick with this illness, but you're also going to be super cool. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| That's so insane. | ||
| Side effect of this vaccine, the vaccine does nothing. | ||
| It's a sugar pill. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Don't vaccines usually come in syringes? | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| Eat this pill. | ||
| It's a sugar injection. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Shut up. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| It's a sugar injection. | ||
| Yeah, that's insane. | ||
| The Gardasil does effectively inoculate you from genital warts. | ||
| Does a great job. | ||
| Which causes cervical cancer in women. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| It's something that there are side effects to. | ||
| That is absolutely true. | ||
| HPV vaccine? | ||
| Very important. | ||
| We can beat back cervical cancer in a very meaningful way. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| Some side effects are acceptable risk. | ||
| I'm not saying that everyone should be forced to get it, but it should be an option. | ||
| Everyone should have an option to get it, because cervical cancer is bad. | ||
| Even if you get particular side effects, you're helping destroy the actual disease. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Like, that's kind of the bigger deal. | ||
| I get that it sucks if you get a side effect. | ||
| And it's the same thing. | ||
| Like, we keep going back through this. | ||
| I get that it sucks that somebody got a side effect from the polio vaccine. | ||
| That sucks. | ||
| But if they don't, if everybody doesn't do it, then the disease itself continues to propagate itself through you. | ||
| And mutate. | ||
| You are doing a public service by getting a vaccine. | ||
| Yeah, and it's absurd to say that they've never gotten the flu shot right. | ||
| There's always different mutations. | ||
| Like, statistically, way less people who get the shot get a terrible flu. | ||
| I've never gotten a flu shot. | ||
| I will say that. | ||
| I haven't for the last few years myself. | ||
| What do you do with it? | ||
| I did when I worked at Walgreens. | ||
| They give them out for free, right? | ||
| Yeah, and I was there. | ||
| So I was like, alright, I'll take a flu shot. | ||
| Nothing happened. | ||
| I got, like, mildly sick for, like, maybe six hours the next day or something like that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Then I was fine. | ||
| Didn't get a flu. | ||
| Also, I haven't really been sick at all in the last, like, two years, year and a half. | ||
| I, you know, I don't know. | ||
| I don't need vaccines. | ||
| Fuck them. | ||
| I'm on Alex's side. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Now we're getting crazy. | ||
| All right. | ||
| No, but I got all my vaccines when I was a kid. | ||
| You know, like, I got all of the round of them. | ||
| Yeah, the hepatitis, the whole thing. | ||
| Yeah, so... | ||
| Maybe that's why I haven't been sick in a long time. | ||
| It's why we're immune to all diseases. | ||
| Also, it's maybe why my forehead sweats so much. | ||
| Let's find random things to blame on these vaccines. | ||
| Anyway, we gotta get back to the call. | ||
| I have a urinary tract infection, that's why. | ||
| I've been teasing that there's a turn and it's gonna come. | ||
| I hate to keep teasing. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| Learned immunity is true. | ||
| Artificially learned immunity is a real science, but there's a great danger, even if it's a, quote, clean vaccine and only the, quote, the attenuated pathogen that you're being given. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| So, this is total social engineering, and you've got to watch out. | ||
| This might not have been in the CDC. | ||
| A lot of records have been stolen, and a lot of people also call up claiming they're from federal agencies. | ||
| I'm not sure, but you don't want to be talking to anybody on the telephone, calling up, asking you questions, okay? | ||
| I know you're trusting and the government says it, but let me tell you something. | ||
| It's a fact, okay, that predators have hijacked the government. | ||
| Trump's trying to clean them out. | ||
| He can't even get it two levels down cleaned out, okay? | ||
| But again, most identities have been stolen. | ||
| They've got to call up, though, to confirm other information with you, like maiden name and things, to be able to go out and really steal your identity. | ||
| So let me ask, they ask you those kind of questions? | ||
| That's good advice. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They did. | |
| That's good advice. | ||
| Probably had your identity stolen, ma 'am. | ||
| Sorry, go ahead. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| Yes. | ||
| They also sent down the availability for me to send out emails and share your articles and articles over vaccines to, you know, certain people. | ||
| Wait, wait. | ||
| Did she just say that they've restricted her ability to email people? | ||
| Yeah, and send out emails about vaccines and Infowars articles. | ||
| Who did that? | ||
| Well, hold on. | ||
| We're going to get into it. | ||
| How did they do that? | ||
| You can't just restrict emails by one guy. | ||
| But what you just said, your reaction to that, Alex Jones giving good advice, although the part about it being marauders in the government who Trump is trying to clear out, that's a little stupid. | ||
| There are predators in the government. | ||
| Describe... | ||
| Describe what you think a Predator in his mind is in the federal government. | ||
| Dreadlocked alien. | ||
| Dreadlocked alien. | ||
| Okay, so we're going classic Predator. | ||
| Are we talking the original Predator where he doesn't seem very good at what he does? | ||
| No. | ||
| Very easy to find him. | ||
| We're talking Predator 2 when he kills everybody. | ||
| No, that part's stupid. | ||
| It's super stupid. | ||
| The part about it being someone within the government, but the idea that it is someone who is... | ||
| Stealing. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's a phishing scam. | ||
| No, that's a phishing scam. | ||
| And Alex is right. | ||
| And she got caught. | ||
| And Alex gave good advice. | ||
| Alex is totally right. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| But at the same time, he's still trying to blame the government and weave vaccines into it, which is where the call takes just a batty turn. | ||
| Who stole records from the CDC? | ||
| That's what I want to know. | ||
| I don't think they did. | ||
| And why? | ||
| I don't think they did. | ||
| What records would you want to steal from the CDC? | ||
| This caller is an unreliable narrator. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I think that someone... | ||
| Do you think it's Virginia Woolf? | ||
| Is that who this is? | ||
| Possibly. | ||
| I think it's Bertram Wooster. | ||
| I think that someone got a hold of some information from her and this idea about her children... | ||
| It's Judge Schmael. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Their children's records and stuff like that was the way they Trojan-horsed her into giving information. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It has nothing to do with the CDC being hacked. | ||
| It has nothing to do with that. | ||
| It has to do with... | ||
| She got robbed because she answered the phone and answered questions for some insane reason. | ||
| So the rest of this call is Alex being totally right and totally wrong at the same time. | ||
| It's fascinating. | ||
| That's great. | ||
| Excuse me, so whatever this bully con artist was, government or not on the phone started telling you what you can and can't do? | ||
| Here, tell me more. | ||
| What'd they say? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, they also censored my email. | |
| They shut it completely down. | ||
| How? | ||
| For 36 hours, I was not able to get on my email. | ||
| Oh, no. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I would enter my password, and it was not. | |
| Well, that might not be related, but there is a lot of social engineering being tested, and they admit that with real phone calls, real things in the databases. | ||
| But you probably... | ||
| You probably gave him your email. | ||
| Whoever it was broke in, stole your identity, and locked you out. | ||
| You need to call and check with the bank and everything. | ||
| You probably had your identity stolen. | ||
| Everybody submits to government. | ||
| So con artists are going to tell you your government. | ||
| And there's con artists in government, but there's also con artists that aren't in government. | ||
| So you probably had your identity stolen. | ||
| I'm going to get your name and number. | ||
| Give us your contact. | ||
| I want to see where this goes as you do more research. | ||
| But Amy, did you ever think this might not be the government calling you up? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I didn't, just because it seemed too coincidental with my recent... | |
| No, no, ma 'am. | ||
| That's not how it works. | ||
| They haven't gotten to that. | ||
| Oh, poor baby. | ||
| You probably online had a data breach or with a major bank. | ||
| They have your info. | ||
| They've got to call and get more. | ||
| Have you checked your bank accounts? | ||
| Have you checked your credit card stuff? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes, yes. | |
| And there are no transactions that have been made that haven't been by me. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Well, I appreciate your call. | ||
| If you've got more info, keep in touch. | ||
| We'll give you the email. | ||
| No harm, I can talk to you. | ||
| You see, when I was a child, there were four or five vaccines. | ||
| Now that's up to 60, they want to give you hundreds. | ||
| Part of that is because... | ||
| There are more diseases! | ||
| And they mutate! | ||
| And there are more vaccines we've developed! | ||
| Yeah! | ||
| Because Alex is not 43. When I was a child, there were only four or five vaccines. | ||
| So, people got other diseases? | ||
| Yeah, they got 43 other diseases. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That argument is so stupid. | |
| That's a bad argument! | ||
| There's so many shots they want to give kids now. | ||
| When I was a child, so many more people died. | ||
| It's using a statistic wrong. | ||
| The statistic is right. | ||
| There are more vaccines. | ||
| But the reason for it, which is really easy to surmise, is that science progresses. | ||
| Is that medical science gets more... | ||
| You know what? | ||
| When Alex Jones' grandfather was a kid, there were no vaccines. | ||
| I think we all know what that means. | ||
| Everyone was super healthy. | ||
| Everyone was super healthy. | ||
| Everyone was immune to diseases back then. | ||
| So now he finishes up the call with a speech, a little bit about vaccines, but also about how you can't trust anybody. | ||
| Logical disorders are off the charts. | ||
| It's killing people, so everybody's got to decide to say no. | ||
| Now, they always say you should be arrested if you don't take vaccines because you'll make other people sick. | ||
| If they've had the vaccine, how is you not having to get them sick? | ||
| That does not make any sense at all. | ||
| That argument is incredibly stupid. | ||
| That is a dumb argument. | ||
| Because the people that you're going to get sick are other people who haven't taken the vaccine. | ||
| Yeah, that's just how that works. | ||
| That's just how logic, science, math, all the stuff. | ||
| That's just how all the stuff works. | ||
| There are some people who don't have access to vaccines. | ||
| And, yeah, that's probably due to poor healthcare systems that are going to get worse. | ||
| Yeah, just because the people who do take the vaccines have nothing to fear from your potentially polio-ridden child or whatever, you know, like, that doesn't mean, hey, it's cool. | ||
| You know, like, you got the vaccine, why should I have to get it? | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Now, question. | ||
| Right. | ||
| All right. | ||
| I'm listening. | ||
| I'm also scratching my eye. | ||
| Do we only give the globalists vaccines? | ||
| Have we considered this possibility? | ||
| And then we give non-globalists the fake vaccines. | ||
| I think that Alex says that they give the globalists, like, the clean vaccines. | ||
| The clean vaccines. | ||
| Which is also a dirty dossier right there. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Clean vaccine. | ||
| Clean vaccine? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| That's a great little rhyme there. | ||
| But I think that he would make that argument. | ||
| They give the globalists get the ones that don't have, like, the cancer viruses in them and stuff like that. | ||
| Right. | ||
| This reminds me a bit too much of the Louis C.K. bit, where he's like, of course everybody... | ||
| Should be vaccinated. | ||
| Of course. | ||
| But maybe if we all just close our eyes for a few years, they all die out and we'll be just fine. | ||
| The issue is that a lot of the diseases are communicable. | ||
| Again, that's not a good strategy. | ||
| It's a bit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Comedy does not make good policy. | |
| But like... | ||
| I've always been really frustrated by that argument of, like, the, hey, you all are getting vaccinated, so if I don't have my kid vaccinated, who cares? | ||
| Your kid's not going to get sick. | ||
| That's insane, but that's not how viruses work. | ||
| Right, but even beyond viruses, other sorts of things. | ||
| But, like, what you were saying, again, earlier, is super important. | ||
| It's the idea that we can get rid of these things like polio. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| We can just have them not be issues because they are so bad. | ||
| We can eradicate them. | ||
| We've eradicated diseases. | ||
| It's hard to really process how amazing that is. | ||
| Things that could kill off entire countries. | ||
| Civilizations. | ||
| Millions of people. | ||
| Millions of people. | ||
| And that has happened before. | ||
| Extinction events haven't always been a fucking meteor destroying us. | ||
| The reason that the Europeans... | ||
| found it so easy to colonize America was because prior to us getting there, there was a massive disease outbreak among the Native American populations. | ||
| So millions upon millions upon millions of Native Americans had died. | ||
| And the rest were often weakened. | ||
| Yeah, before we got here. | ||
| If that disease hadn't occurred... | ||
| We would not be here. | ||
| They would have very easily sussed out how dumb we were. | ||
| These crypto-murdered us. | ||
| These Chinese Native Americans could have sussed it out. | ||
| Yeah, it's so unbelievable to me. | ||
| But at the same time, it makes so much sense because human beings don't have a long memory. | ||
| No. | ||
| We can only process what's in our lifetimes, which is, again, why... | ||
| Deregulating the stock market makes so much sense to so many people. | ||
| Because when they were raised, we were still in that economic boom from the New Deal. | ||
| We were still in that steady growth with no bursts and no bubbles and that whole thing. | ||
| So, of course, they would imagine, well, things aren't perfect now. | ||
| So what we do is we change this shit. | ||
| And they forget that the whole reason they had to do the New Deal in the first place was because of the very same shit that they just allowed. | ||
| Yeah, they're trying to reintroduce. | ||
| And they don't get that that is stupid because our attention spans are non-existent. | ||
| Let's finish up this clip. | ||
| I believe there's only a tiny bit left where it gets paranoid. | ||
| The vaccine causes the shingles. | ||
| The shingles vaccine is live herpes simplex. | ||
| It's attenuated, but it still gives it to you. | ||
| What? | ||
| My dad, before he quit doing medical practice, he said almost all his old patients would get shingles. | ||
| He'd say, oh, did you take the shot? | ||
| Yeah, last week. | ||
| And he'd be like, oh, very nice. | ||
| A lot of them would just die afterwards. | ||
| You wouldn't see them no more. | ||
| But she's like, oh, they're just dead. | ||
| No big deal. | ||
| Dead babies, dead old people, dead everybody. | ||
| You know, it's no big deal. | ||
| Let's just be liberal and trust our government. | ||
| Amy, I appreciate your call. | ||
| God bless you. | ||
| What the fuck? | ||
| I love you. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Shingles. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So, the herpes vaccine... | ||
| The shingles vaccine is just herpes. | ||
| The shingles vaccine is just herpes. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Does that make sense? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
|
unidentified
|
This is one I did not look into. | |
| I did not research this one. | ||
| Is herpes shingle? | ||
| Like, is herpes available? | ||
| Is herpes doing anything later on tonight? | ||
| Yeah, I don't know about that, but I do know that his dad might be attributing causation to correlation. | ||
| As is always the case. | ||
| All these old people I keep seeing die after they get a shingles vaccine. | ||
| They might be 85. Yeah. | ||
| Anytime somebody tells me people act crazy during the full moon. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I want to lose my mind. | ||
| It just goes back to people not being able to understand coincidence. | ||
| You can't understand statistics. | ||
| Human beings can't do it. | ||
| And coincidences are super terrifying because they... | ||
| Can happen at any time. | ||
| I'll tell you off air. | ||
| The thing that I always fixate on is the old story of the person... | ||
| Who is about to call somebody on their old landline. | ||
| I've experienced that a couple times. | ||
| They are about to call somebody. | ||
| The very moment they're about to call somebody, they pick up the phone and it's that person on the phone. | ||
| And you think, holy shit, that's an amazing moment. | ||
| Every day, 300 million people make a phone call. | ||
| Every day they pick up the phone at a certain time. | ||
| According to the laws of statistics, that will happen to you. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's going to happen. | ||
| If not to you, to somebody. | ||
| But it feels weird. | ||
| Just because it feels like it's, you know, it feels like you've been chosen. | ||
| And it's just statistical inevitability. | ||
| Sure. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Like... | |
| No, I agree. | ||
| We're all going to get cancer. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Because of these vaccines. | ||
| Because of these goddamn vaccines. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Oh well. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Anyway, we've come to the end of our clips for the March 14th episode of the Alex Jones program. | ||
| Indeed. | ||
| Well, we can take away from this, I think, if we want to give some summation. | ||
| Alex Jones can't take a joke. | ||
| He's a liar. | ||
| He is a liar. | ||
| He really can't take a joke. | ||
| He's more of a coward than Michael Savage, who is one of the worst people I've ever had the pleasure of listening to on a broadcast. | ||
| He projects to an insane degree. | ||
| Yes, absolutely. | ||
| All of these things are true. | ||
| Also, at press time, we have still not gotten a response from your tweeting at Prison Planet. | ||
| So maybe it's open season. | ||
| Let's start tweeting at him. | ||
