#241: Larry Gets Coached

Today, Dan and Jordan enjoy a Wacky Wednesday adventure where they revisit the world of Coach Dave, specifically a couple of interviews he did with anti-Clinton propagandist and former Knowledge Fight guest Larry Nichols. The interviews happen around the 2016 election, so they mostly involve Larry saying profoundly dumb stuff and unabashedly advocating for "veterans" and "biker gangs" to intimidate voters at inner city precincts.

Speaker Time Text
alex jones
Andy in Kansas, you're on the air.
unidentified
Thanks for holding.
Hello, Alex.
I'm a first-time caller.
I'm a huge fan.
I love your work.
I love you.
dan friesen
Hey, everybody.
Welcome back to Knowledge Fight.
I'm Dan.
jordan holmes
I'm Jordan.
dan friesen
We're a couple dudes like to sit around, drink novelty beverages, and talk a little bit about Alex Jones.
jordan holmes
Indeed we are.
Dan?
dan friesen
Yes, sir.
unidentified
Dan?
Yep.
jordan holmes
What movie represents this season most to you?
dan friesen
The fall?
Or the winter?
jordan holmes
The winter.
dan friesen
Well, obviously, uh...
jordan holmes
Don't say winter's bone.
dan friesen
I was going to say The Family Man starring Nicolas Cage.
I think that takes time around Christmas.
Fair enough.
I think it does.
I don't know.
Let's see.
Winter.
Winter.
Maybe Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe.
jordan holmes
Really?
dan friesen
The Winter Queen, right?
jordan holmes
I think she's the Snow Queen?
The Ice Queen?
dan friesen
Something like that.
I always resist calling her the Ice Queen since that's such a pejorative term for ladies.
Anyway, this is a show where I don't know all that much about seasonalities of movies, but I do know a lot about Alex Jones.
jordan holmes
Uh-huh.
And I only know what you tell me about Alex Jones.
dan friesen
That is correct.
jordan holmes
Exactly.
dan friesen
And to our folks who like to know about novelty beverages, today we're drinking Lagunitas Daytime Ale.
It's a fractional IPA, which we learned is not a great thing.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
Right before the show.
It means it has a lower alcohol content.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it's kind of lame.
dan friesen
Anyway, today, Jordan, we are doing Wacky Wednesday.
jordan holmes
Yay!
dan friesen
I got an interesting topic for us to cover, and we will get into it in just one second.
But before we do, I'd like to say thank you to a couple new people who have signed up and are supporting the show.
This person, I'm positive I'm going to mispronounce their name, and I apologize in advance.
But Chris Stops, I'd like to thank you for supporting the show.
You are now a policy wonk.
unidentified
I'm a policy wonk.
dan friesen
Thank you so much.
jordan holmes
You did actually pronounce that correctly, I believe.
unidentified
I did?
jordan holmes
Yeah, because that's also the name of Kristaps Porzingis, a famous basketball player for the Knicks.
Injured this year, but he is a rising superstar.
dan friesen
I apologize for my preemptive apology.
jordan holmes
There you go.
dan friesen
Secondly, I'd like to say thank you to Emily.
You are now a policy wonk.
unidentified
I'm a policy wonk.
dan friesen
And that's Emily spelled E-M-I-L-E-E.
jordan holmes
Oh, I like that.
dan friesen
Cool spelling of Emily.
Also, I'd like to say thank you to Fiona.
You are now a policy wonk.
unidentified
I'm a policy wonk.
dan friesen
Thank you, Fiona.
jordan holmes
Fiona, my favorite Adventure Time character.
dan friesen
Also, my favorite Apple.
That was the equivalent of you booing me.
I'd like to also say thank you to somebody who took their donation and bumped it up to a higher level.
We appreciate it also very much.
So, Stella, you are now a globalist.
unidentified
I'm a policy wonk.
Go home to your mother and tell her you're brilliant.
pastor david manning
Someone sodomite sent me a bucket of poop.
unidentified
Daddy Shark!
dan friesen
Thank you, Stella.
If you are out there listening and you would like to support the show and what we do, you can do that by going to our website, knowledgefight.com, clicking that button that says support the show.
We would appreciate it oh so very much.
jordan holmes
Very much.
dan friesen
So, Jordan, we got a weird, wacky Wednesday thing going this month.
unidentified
Uh-huh.
jordan holmes
How many hammers are you going to drop on this one?
dan friesen
I don't know if I have any hammers, actually.
jordan holmes
Liar.
dan friesen
I'm not trying to lull you into a false sense of security.
jordan holmes
You are always lulling me into a false sense of security.
dan friesen
So, you know, we've gone over Reverend Manning.
We went over the star child who made good on her life.
jordan holmes
Yes.
dan friesen
We went over Coach Dave last week, and that was a wildly weird episode.
jordan holmes
Oh boy, Coach Dave.
dan friesen
So, here's the deal.
jordan holmes
What's the deal?
dan friesen
When I was going over Coach Dave, I found a lot more that I wanted to talk about.
And I realized that if I did, it would end up being a four-hour episode.
And I don't feel like I want to move on from Wacky Wednesday until I get this out.
So today, we are revisiting Coach Dave Doppenmeyer.
jordan holmes
Oh, no!
dan friesen
I feel a little weird about that, going back to the well so quickly on someone who is a new entry into our fold.
But at the same time, on our group on Facebook, Go Home and Tell Your Mother You're Brilliant, there was a poll that was put up.
It was a resounding support for Let's Talk More About Dave Dobbin.
jordan holmes
I believe I texted you about that.
It's dictator-level numbers there.
It's like 99% people were like, yeah, get some more Coach Dave in there.
dan friesen
Despite the horrible white nationalism and being a guy whose son is a sex offender.
jordan holmes
I think part of it is our listeners have a self-flagellation and they want to hear more white supremacist talk.
dan friesen
Well, we might touch on that a tiny bit.
So, the reason that I had a whole lot more that I wanted to talk about, and it actually works really well to have it be two separate episodes, is in 2016, around the election, Coach Dave had a guest on his show that we are very familiar with.
jordan holmes
Oh, no.
coach dave daubenmire
Dave Daubenmire here at Cox.
What evening is this?
This is Thursday evening.
Just had a great exclusive opportunity to be able to talk to Larry Nichols and honored that you would join us here.
So exclusive.
Hard to get a hold of that guy.
jordan holmes
He took a text message.
dan friesen
There's more to this clip, but I laughed my ass off when he was like, we had an exclusive opportunity.
He gives out his phone number on other shows.
We just called him out of the blue and he answered.
jordan holmes
On the show, he just picked up.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Weird.
dan friesen
It is not an exclusive thing to get an interview with Larry Nichols.
He'll talk to any asshole who wants to talk to him.
jordan holmes
Yep.
dan friesen
So, Coach had Larry Nichols on for an interview in the lead-up to the election.
jordan holmes
All about Rice.
dan friesen
Soft and hard.
coach dave daubenmire
that doesn't come up larry is really really sick in fact we're going to hear from him here in a second he says he's got tubes coming out is just about everything tubes can be coming out of so just out of out of decency and a privacy uh larry's just going to be coming beyond with this uh we'll hear his voice like those hydraulic tubes gonna do a little bit different than our normal hangout we do our hangouts in the morning you know we have a bunch of guys in the screen with us on but we're not going to do that today it's just going to be a straight up interview with with Very exciting.
dan friesen
So, in decency, For Larry.
He's not going to have him up on video.
jordan holmes
Maybe when he says exclusive interview, he just means I'm the only one doing this interview with him.
I don't have my 15 random-ass guys on Google Hangouts yelling at Larry Nichols, too.
dan friesen
That does make it easier to listen to, for sure.
Right.
I don't think that's it.
I think he's thrilled.
He thinks this is a get.
This is like, I have a big guest on my hands.
Larry fucking Nichols is talking to me?
I love that so much.
I love the idea that any one hero worships him.
It just means they don't know anything.
Like, they haven't looked into his history, the fact that after he sued the Clintons back in the 90s and accused Clinton of having affairs with a bunch of women, all the women were interviewed and they said, absolutely not.
Then the star tabloid picked up the story and he was like, look, I don't want to be, I'm sorry.
jordan holmes
This isn't me.
dan friesen
And then a little bit after that, he started to get some money, and then he started to revamp the timeline of his huckster scam here.
It's very clear.
And his motivations for hating the Clintons are really clear, because Bill Clinton fired him from the Arkansas Development Finance Office for making 642 collect calls on the state's dime to the Contras in Nicaragua.
He got fired from that job, and now he's pissed off at Bill Clinton.
And then just tracing his timeline through everything, it's like, alright, you're someone who just commits fraud after fraud.
So here's the actual direct quote after the story came out in the Star tabloid.
The only reason the story got picked up is because things that Larry put out into the world that everyone in Arkansas ignored because they just knew, like, this is bullshit.
This is nonsense.
But once Bill became the presumptive Democratic presidential candidate, the star was like, oh, here's a juicy story, and they started reporting on it.
And Larry said, quote, the media has made a circus out of this thing, and now it's gone way too far.
When the star article first came out, several women called asking if I was willing to pay them.
To say they had an affair with Bill Clinton.
This is crazy.
One London newspaper is offering half a million dollars for a story.
So even he's coming out and being like, this is bullshit.
There's a lot of forces that I accidentally opened up.
jordan holmes
I wanted to lie without consequences.
And you guys are going to make it so when I continue lying, there's going to be some real consequences.
dan friesen
I mean, he's made it perfectly clear that he set out to destroy Bill Clinton and it got away from him.
And then later, he's just like...
That was a good scam.
I'm going to get back on that.
jordan holmes
That was a good run.
dan friesen
And then when he said he was the hitman for the Clintons on a radio show.
jordan holmes
That was fun.
dan friesen
And then later he was like, oh, I was on fucking pills.
I don't even remember saying that.
That is true.
This guy is an asshole.
jordan holmes
This guy is an asshole.
dan friesen
Also, we should say, he's the saddest sack I've ever heard.
larry nichols
I was young and I was cool and I was smart back when I worked with the Clintons.
I helped design, build the system.
That Bill and Hillary used.
jordan holmes
No, you wrote jingles.
larry nichols
This intricate mob, this cabal system.
jordan holmes
You were a jingle writer.
dan friesen
Well, see here, the way he presents things on other shows that he does, like Alex's show, is that what he's referring to here is this mob cabal system that he helped set up.
unidentified
Of course.
dan friesen
The way he describes it elsewhere is the idea of the broken coalition.
The idea of going after...
All Christians or all the majority voters in a state is probably not the best strategy.
But if you embrace disenfranchised groups, they add up to a large voting block.
So that is the evil that he says he worked on with the Clintons in terms of strategic goals back then.
Now he's on Coach Dave's show and he's calling it a mob cabal system.
All he's talking about is...
Listening to minorities.
jordan holmes
Yeah, the system that nearly got Stacey Abrams elected until it was stolen from her.
unidentified
Sure.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
larry nichols
I helped build it.
Designed most of it.
And then here I am today, seeing that system being used to destroy the life my grandchildren are going to have in years.
And I've got to stop it.
I've got to be the one.
You know, nobody's beat the Clinton system.
Nobody.
Coach, you know that?
Nobody.
Except me.
unidentified
What?
Nobody.
jordan holmes
Except you?
How?
larry nichols
Got him close.
But he got off.
dan friesen
Slippery.
larry nichols
But I think it was all one day destined to come down to this.
Now I'm afraid I'm just barely hanging on.
I'm not going to be here maybe for the election, but I'm trying.
dan friesen
You sad pile of shit.
This is so nonsense.
jordan holmes
That's pathetic.
dan friesen
Yeah, yeah.
I know that I'm the one who can bring down the Clintons.
No one's ever beat them but me, but I'm going to die before the election.
Because I'm so sick, I'm too sick that you can't even have me on screen.
jordan holmes
I do appreciate this differing level of asshole, as opposed to our usual, you know...
Fake alpha male dominate everything.
He's like trying to portray himself as the Danny Glover coming out of retirement for one last save in the fucking union.
dan friesen
Or like a kid on fake crutches trying to get some money from you.
He's affecting his illness so severely and talking about like, I'll be gone soon.
I'm just a principled warrior here trying to take down the Clintons because I know their system.
unidentified
I built it.
I can't think of anybody that I identify with more than Ozymandamus.
dan friesen
Ozymandamus.
unidentified
Look upon my works, ye mighty, in despair.
So I have created Bill Clinton and no longer can I control him.
What have I done?
Good God.
dan friesen
It's an Island of Dr. Moreau situation.
jordan holmes
What has science done?
dan friesen
This is awesome.
Because, yeah, you're right.
It is such a different flair for a pathetic liar than blustery bullshit.
Even though the, like, I got him impeached and stuff like that, it's like, well, kind of.
But he kind of did it to himself, too.
unidentified
What?
jordan holmes
Come on, Bill.
Bill's such a nice guy.
dan friesen
He definitely didn't commit all them crimes.
You know, it is interesting.
And I enjoy it a little bit.
But it's also like he's really hamming up the, like, I'm going to die soon.
I have been brought low.
He's even talking about there, like, I was so strong.
I thought I was so strong when I was younger, but now I have been brought to be humble.
And what he's doing that for on this show is because that's so in line with the Christian ethos.
Like this idea of the mighty being brought low and the soul on the way.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Seeing the truth and redeeming yourself is something that, especially mainstream Christians nowadays, conservative Christians can't get enough of that shit.
That story is catnip for them.
jordan holmes
While he was working with Clinton, he was actually Gary Nichols.
And then he had his coming-to-Jesus moment, and now he's Larry Nichols.
That's the Saul-Paul situation all over again.
dan friesen
He might have some aliases.
I've not been able to quite track that down, but I do think he has a couple of false identities.
jordan holmes
Yeah, he's probably written an op-ed or two under a...
What was a...
Benjamin Franklin's old fake grandma character?
dan friesen
Mark Twain's was something snodgrass, right?
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
William something snodgrass?
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Who cares?
Anyway, in this next clip, Coach is trying to ask Larry a question, but if you listen carefully to the audio, you don't have to listen that carefully, you can tell that Larry is distracted by something else that's going on in his house.
unidentified
There's a kitten.
coach dave daubenmire
But Larry, it would be safe to say that some of these guys go there with the best intentions, do they not?
dan friesen
To Washington.
coach dave daubenmire
They become corrupted by...
dan friesen
So what preceded this immediately is Larry telling a story about how he would try and get blackmail on people in Washington.
jordan holmes
Of course.
dan friesen
And how he would set them up and then they'd be corrupted and stuff like that.
So when Coach is saying, like, some people come in with good intentions, that is the framework of this.
And it makes his question all the stupider.
coach dave daubenmire
And then they become corrupted by the system or get caught in a compromise.
dan friesen
Exactly.
By me.
coach dave daubenmire
I did it.
jordan holmes
I'm the reason Washington is alive.
coach dave daubenmire
And then they'll catch one or two of them and then it'll scare everybody else out and then they'll fall in line.
larry nichols
That's right.
coach dave daubenmire
So Larry, as we look at it right now then, we look at all this stuff that's coming out.
unidentified
Sorry, there's a marching band going through my house.
coach dave daubenmire
Are they really going to use it?
Does it come down, Larry, to whether she's elected or not?
dan friesen
Sorry, I take my dog out.
That's great.
Exclusive interview.
unidentified
I call him Fido Clinton.
dan friesen
I mean, that's great.
It's professional.
It's pretty awesome.
Pretty awesome.
jordan holmes
Oh man.
dan friesen
It shows a rank disrespect for Coach Dave.
Not giving a fuck about his show.
jordan holmes
You know, it's crazy.
He was actually very respectful to us.
dan friesen
Yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
He gave us just a fine old interview.
He lied directly to our faces the whole time.
dan friesen
Some would say that's not respectful, but I don't take it personally.
jordan holmes
For him?
What else could he do?
dan friesen
Inveterate liar?
jordan holmes
Tell us the truth?
dan friesen
At least he didn't get up to take his dog out noisily on our show.
We appreciate that.
jordan holmes
Yeah, thanks, Larry.
There's one good thing about you.
dan friesen
So one of Larry's big points, because he's here right before the election, is that the fraud is going to happen.
jordan holmes
Of course.
dan friesen
And one of the big things he wants you to do is protect your ballot.
So if you go into a place, you need a paper ballot.
If they don't give you a paper ballot, you call the police.
You make a big scene out of it.
jordan holmes
Man, I...
I think people should have done that in North Carolina this year, I suppose.
dan friesen
Maybe the advice goes both ways.
jordan holmes
Could be more right-wing.
dan friesen
He has other advice that he wants to give that is deeply, deeply problematic, and I think what he's advocating for is probably a crime.
coach dave daubenmire
Explain to people how that happens.
How do people vote multiple times, Larry?
jordan holmes
Good question, Dave.
coach dave daubenmire
Do they have names on a roster?
Do they have records of people who died?
Do they have records of people who died?
larry nichols
Well, what we used to do, and I'll describe it from first-hand experience, what we did, what happens is they go in and come in in a bus.
We used to get school buses.
Literally.
There's a bus company in Conway.
And we would get school buses.
We'd go to northeast Arkansas to a very impoverished black part of the state.
Poor people.
We would load them up, put them on the bus, and we would take them, just like they're going to do this time, take them to the inner city precincts.
Inner city precincts.
They're not going to your precinct, Coach, out in rural, wherever.
coach dave daubenmire
That's for sure.
larry nichols
They're going inner-city precincts.
dan friesen
So that clip doesn't necessarily demonstrate what would be described as, you know, criminal, necessarily.
unidentified
I guess.
dan friesen
But what he's talking about is he's perpetuating an idea that this targeting of all the, you know, all this voter fraud business is happening within these black precincts.
jordan holmes
I feel like all he said right there is we were helping people vote.
dan friesen
Well, no, that's the real-world version of what this conspiracy is about.
And Larry actually later says that, like, this time the Clintons aren't going to be able to pull it off with the buses, probably not even vans, because they're too obvious, so they'll have to use cars.
Like, you're going to take three people to the polls?
Like, the only way that makes sense is if you really believe in voting integrity and you're carpooling people.
jordan holmes
Yeah, there's a...
dan friesen
If you're trying to swing the vote, that's not...
That is going to be cost prohibitive.
You would have to have fleets of cars out there.
You'd have to take over Uber.
jordan holmes
I was about to say, it's just a fleet of Uber pools.
dan friesen
That's fine.
And you'd have to be doing it in a conspiracy in order to make a dent in most of the places where it would matter.
This is crazy nonsense.
Unless what he's trying to do is demonize the idea of helping people who don't have access to getting to the polls get to the polls.
And what he's doing is trying to present the idea that it doesn't happen where you are, Coach.
Not in your white enclave in Ohio.
It's happening in these black places.
Now the reason that I said that I think what he's talking about is criminal is because this part of it was the descriptive part.
He's describing what he thinks the problem is.
And now here's his solution.
larry nichols
So, now, you take nationwide, look at Baltimore, look at Philadelphia, look at all these huge cities.
dan friesen
Why'd you choose those?
larry nichols
Look at the number of votes in these precincts.
jordan holmes
It's like there's more than in the rural areas.
larry nichols
Significant fraud.
Now, how do you catch it?
coach dave daubenmire
Yeah, good question.
Good answer.
larry nichols
Well, what you do to catch it is simple.
We need veterans groups.
Oh, no.
jordan holmes
No.
larry nichols
To get together, because I don't recommend, Coach, you or anybody going in by yourself to an inner-city precinct.
Why not?
jordan holmes
I really don't understand that at all.
larry nichols
I don't recommend you going in there by yourself.
coach dave daubenmire
Right.
larry nichols
You'll have to get a nod on your head.
coach dave daubenmire
I got some guts later, but I also got some brains.
larry nichols
All right.
jordan holmes
People are people, dude.
Do you think they're murdering people at voting booths?
larry nichols
They can go into the inner-city precinct with, say, you know, let's say 10 people.
Go in there with 10 people.
jordan holmes
Well, that'll swing an election!
larry nichols
And be safe with their numbers.
And then you just watch.
It'll happen right in front of you.
They don't hide it.
You'll see them going in, coming out, going in, coming out.
When you see it, take a picture of it.
The minute you take a picture of it, call the police.
Tell the police what you just witnessed.
They won't come.
They will not come.
But take a picture anyway.
And then, you let me know on my website, LarryNichols.info, we've got a place right there, Coach, for people to log in their experience.
With voter fraud.
dan friesen
As of December 2018.
jordan holmes
How's it going?
dan friesen
Still no evidence on LarryNichols.info of concrete voter fraud.
jordan holmes
I don't think it even makes sense to...
His plan doesn't even make sense, right?
dan friesen
It does if you consider it to be voter intimidation.
jordan holmes
Right.
I just mean more than...
dan friesen
He's advocating for a bunch of people intimidating at inner city polls.
jordan holmes
Oh, of course.
Of course.
No, that I understand.
dan friesen
Who does he think is going to go?
jordan holmes
But that doesn't...
dan friesen
It's going to be people who hear this message of, hey, if you go alone to an inner-city black precinct, you'll probably get assaulted and maybe murdered.
So you go with a group of people, now you feel safe, you're going to be suspicious of everything.
You're going to be thinking it's the jungle, like Coach thinks Harlem is.
jordan holmes
Right, right, right.
dan friesen
It's going to be this idea of, like, you go in there, you're white, you are in danger.
So you go in with your team.
You team.
You go in there.
You're not going to be observing things.
What you're going to be doing is being skeptical of everybody who's there.
And you're probably going to be the type of people who think that all non-white people look the same.
And so you're probably going to take pictures of a bunch of people.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
All you end up doing is intimidating people away from the polls.
jordan holmes
I mean, no, I mean more like for him to say that plan makes sense because he wants people to go to inner cities.
In order to intimidate voters.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
But if I'm committing voter fraud, we already won the cities, man.
The cities are Democrats because we won.
We all realize that we're in it together.
We're cities.
I would take inner city people out to rural districts in order to make sure that we win those districts.
unidentified
No, no, no, no, no, no.
jordan holmes
That's how voter fraud works.
dan friesen
You misunderstand.
He's advocating a position of how the right can take back the inner city.
jordan holmes
Right, right, right.
That's what I'm saying.
But that doesn't make sense for us.
If I'm committing voter fraud...
dan friesen
If you're working with Larry.
jordan holmes
No, if I'm working against Larry.
Larry's working to stop me.
dan friesen
Right, right, right.
jordan holmes
And my plan is to commit voter fraud to win the election.
dan friesen
Right.
jordan holmes
Right.
I don't need the cities.
dan friesen
No, because those are the places you can ram the totals up really high, because people like Larry and Coach are too afraid to come around and find the clear evidence.
jordan holmes
But that doesn't make sense!
dan friesen
It doesn't.
jordan holmes
That makes no sense!
dan friesen
No, this is based on a deeply racist worldview, and the strategy that's being advocated for only serves...
To intimidate people away from practicing their right to vote.
jordan holmes
Of course!
dan friesen
And so, I mean, that is where Larry is coming from.
He can dress it up in all sorts of like, I know the Clintons and they do these tricks and I know the only way to stop those tricks is a group of ten dudes hanging around for no reason at the polls, harassing people, just being a nuisance.
That's the only answer to this pickle that we find ourselves in.
The truth is he's just advocating the people that disenfranchise minorities.
jordan holmes
And even then...
dan friesen
It's crazy how overt that is.
jordan holmes
If his angle is that they're coming in and out of the polls and then going back in and out of the polls, you can't take a picture of that.
You have to take a video of that.
Otherwise, you're just taking pictures of people walking out of the polls.
Right.
dan friesen
It would be tough.
And that's probably why he hasn't gotten to the bottom of this mystery at this point.
Also, we should say...
jordan holmes
That doesn't happen.
In-person and photo-fraud is almost non-existent.
dan friesen
And also, I know at this point in the episode we're a good about half hour in.
People are clamoring.
I know Lucy is out there screaming into the ether, call Larry Nichols.
jordan holmes
We did.
dan friesen
We did.
jordan holmes
We just did.
We talked to Larry Nichols and he is...
dan friesen
He does not want to talk to us right now.
jordan holmes
No, no, no.
He is...
dan friesen
Right now does not want to talk to us.
jordan holmes
He's experiencing some sickness problems.
dan friesen
Sure he is.
jordan holmes
As we speak right now.
However, it will not be hard to get him to come back on this show.
dan friesen
I'm certain.
The only reason that it is a much easier time and why I'm really into the idea of talking to him is because we're talking about him.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And then also, right now, we're recording this.
It's 4.30 in the afternoon.
Whereas generally, a lot of the time we'll be recording and it's evening.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And, you know, Grandpa Nichols has got to be in bed, I assume.
I feel bad calling him at like 9. Oh, yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
We can't do that.
I was just like...
I feel like the only problem that we had was it didn't...
Because I didn't know we were talking about Larry Nichols today.
dan friesen
Right, right.
jordan holmes
I should have been...
Part of the Wacky Wednesday show is I don't know what we're going to do.
It would have been great if we had called him yesterday or two days ago and seen if he wanted to come on the show today.
unidentified
But...
jordan holmes
It was a spur of the moment.
Holy shit, there's Larry Nichols' voice.
I want to hear more of Larry Nichols' voice, but in real time.
dan friesen
I predict that he won't talk to us again, but we'll try.
We'll see.
I'd like to talk to him again because it's been a long time since we talked to him.
And the last time we talked to him...
We brought up that he was trying to blackmail Congress and Robert Mueller.
jordan holmes
It's going well.
dan friesen
It's going great.
jordan holmes
It's going well.
dan friesen
And I want to talk to him about what his plans are to further this blackmail.
I really want to know.
jordan holmes
How are we going to blackmail Congress?
dan friesen
And further, I want to know, did he try?
jordan holmes
Did he send an email out of the blue?
dan friesen
Did he follow through with all that dirt that he has on everybody?
Because he was talking a big game on Alex's show.
jordan holmes
He was talking a big game on our show.
dan friesen
I want to find out about that.
I want to find out about...
I don't really have many other questions for him, honestly.
jordan holmes
How you doing?
dan friesen
I find his life incredibly boring.
I think he is a garden variety con man.
He just took advantage of a situation.
But at the same time, good on him.
He never gives up.
We're in the weeds here.
Let's get back on track.
Larry wants to express again that you need to verify your damn vote.
And then Coach says something we're very familiar with.
larry nichols
Do not.
Walk away from your voting machine without verification that your vote was logged the way you voted.
jordan holmes
That's actually a good advice.
larry nichols
Coach, for everybody to do that, they can't steal your vote with machines that are wired up to where every third time Trump goes to Clinton.
coach dave daubenmire
Amen.
Which we know Soros owns a lot of these things, and so they call conspiracy theories Larry, but we know in fact it's going on.
dan friesen
That's wild.
unidentified
Wild.
dan friesen
He keeps bringing up Soros.
jordan holmes
Just find a different billionaire for a while.
Like, there's that billionaire who's gonna try and run for president who's running the impeach Trump campaign.
He sucks.
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
Fucking go after him for a while.
dan friesen
I don't even know who that is.
jordan holmes
Just take a break from Soros.
Exactly.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Populize it.
Make it popular.
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
Let's go after whatever the fuck is who's running those ads about impeach Trump.
He sucks.
I mean, I'm for impeaching Trump, but that guy sucks.
dan friesen
It's a strategy that's very important that you unify focus on one person.
jordan holmes
Right.
Especially if it is somebody who is a Hungarian-born Jew.
dan friesen
Man, it's weird.
It's so weird that...
It's just so consistent.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I know.
dan friesen
It's crazy that it just travels...
This worm, this brain worm, just goes through these different communities.
You know, like, I'm sure if I listen to tons of her boring political episodes, I'm sure Carrie talks about Soros, too.
jordan holmes
100%.
dan friesen
She may have in episodes that we've covered, and I've just forgotten.
jordan holmes
Probably.
dan friesen
But you got, I mean, Jim Baker's talked about Soros.
You got Coach, he's talking about Soros.
Alex is talking about Soros.
Larry Nichols hates Soros.
It's weird.
It seems such like a unifying piece of this fabric that...
Getting to the bottom of where all that comes from is so important because when you do, you start to understand where the rhetoric that trickles down to all of these places comes from.
Because it has to come from a source.
I bet Coach got that from Alex.
So I don't think that he has some sort of primary...
He doesn't get to jump up a level in the trickle-down.
He watches Alex's show.
That's why he admires Larry, and that's why he thinks Soros is behind everything.
jordan holmes
Right, because there's really no other way that Coach Dave could know Larry Nichols.
dan friesen
I can't imagine.
jordan holmes
Like, when I was growing up in the 90s, I totally knew about Larry Nichols.
unidentified
What?
dan friesen
I mean, it's possible, but I think at that point, you'd have to assume he would have made contact with him before.
jordan holmes
You would hope.
dan friesen
You know, because if he knew about him from the actual Clinton time...
It's not like Larry shied away from the spotlight.
jordan holmes
It's not like he's hard to get in touch with.
dan friesen
No, actually, interestingly...
jordan holmes
His number is still the same!
dan friesen
In 1994, he started this campaign.
So in 90, he got fired from the Arkansas Development Finance Agency.
jordan holmes
No idea why.
dan friesen
And then in 92, when Bill was running for office, is when the Star article came out, and he was like, fuck, this has gotten away from me.
But then, by 1994, he started to embrace it all, and he started to give speeches at patriot communities.
For instance, he gave a speech at a rally for a group called Boulder Patriots, and the following comes from a transcript of his speech.
Quote, Parenthetically.
Parenthetically.
At this point, Nichols draws a silver-plated semi-automatic handgun from his hip and waves it in the air before placing it on the podium.
Several voices from the audience are heard cheering, shoot the bastard.
jordan holmes
Wow.
dan friesen
So that was what he was up to in 94. He was out making the rounds in all these places.
So the concept that Coach would have been aware of him from then, there's no way that he would have never talked to him or tried to get in touch with him before 2016.
He absolutely knows him from Alex.
So my point in that is that these worlds that all have Soros as the big boogeyman, it has to come from somewhere.
And when we see this flowchart, one of the interesting things about Coach bringing it up is that it gives us a layer below Alex.
So you have the influence that Alex has wielded on the world being expressed by Coach.
So you have Coach step above that Alex.
You understand where Alex gets it all from.
It starts to help where all the other people got it from.
jordan holmes
Right.
The confusion I have, though, is that it spread pretty much the same way that your garden variety internet meme would spread.
Not true.
Oh, well, I mean, yeah, I mean, yes, it is based on...
dan friesen
Because years and years before, Bill O 'Reilly was talking about him and then just stopped because it didn't work out all that well for him.
unidentified
Right, right, right.
dan friesen
So, like, it's not like the Soros attempt hadn't been made before.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
It didn't work the same way as an internet meme.
Or maybe it did, but it would be like a meme that someone tried to launch and then it didn't work, so they waited a few years and then tried it again.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
So maybe, I've never, I don't know of any memes that work that way.
But it's possible.
It's like a virus becoming antibiotic resistant or something like that.
jordan holmes
Exactly.
Yeah.
It's fascinating that it won't go away.
That's the thing that confuses me.
dan friesen
Well, much the same with Bill actually cheating, reinforcing the lies that...
Right.
jordan holmes
Well, I mean, people still believe Bill killed Vince Foster.
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
You know, there are enough...
There are enough true things, if you deprive them of context about Soros' life, that lead you to believe that he's an evil man.
That people, if they just don't try and do the time and put in the work to figure out what's truth and what's fiction, there's enough semblances of reality behind the idea that, oh, hey, Hungary does want him out.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Now, the reason for that is because Hungary is run by Viktor Orban.
jordan holmes
An evil dictator.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
And that's the reason.
He's a democratizing force, and that is a threat to an authoritarian leader.
Ergo, they want him out.
jordan holmes
Right.
And there are enough authoritarian leaders working in concert with enough dedicated propaganda groups working to reinforce this meme over and over again.
dan friesen
Right.
jordan holmes
So yeah, I can see that.
Maybe one of the ways that we could force memes to stick around as opposed to disappear organically is if we hired people to never-endingly send out these memes.
I suppose.
dan friesen
Who knows?
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
So in this next clip, it's actually appropriate because we were talking about how obviously Coach is getting a lot of this stuff from Alex.
And this next clip, I think, even further demonstrates that.
coach dave daubenmire
Larry, one of the most salacious things that's come out here in the last few days.
We understand there's an uprising.
At least they say there's a governmental...
An undercover government uprising in the FBI and other places like that, that this recent stuff came about because of Anthony Weiner and the investigation by the NYPD, yada, yada, yada.
jordan holmes
Oh, 2016 was so weird.
coach dave daubenmire
Larry, one of the things that's buried deep down in the middle of this thing is the idea of the Lolita Express.
We know Bill's been promiscuous about this whole time.
Everybody understands that.
But they're making accusations now, or at least I'm hearing them, Larry.
rumors about the possibility that Hillary might be somehow involved with this pedophilia that's going on.
Larry, from your perspective, is this something Hillary would be involved in as well?
larry nichols
Oh, yeah.
unidentified
Yeah, she fucks nine-year-olds.
jordan holmes
Who cares?
dan friesen
Good stuff.
Good stuff, Larry.
Good.
unidentified
Good.
jordan holmes
I do like Larry's commitment to letting you say whatever conspiratorial dumb shit you want to say and then him just being like...
For sure, man.
You keep on it.
dan friesen
I will tell you.
jordan holmes
Loving it.
dan friesen
On that tip, there's a really interesting point where Larry refutes a conspiracy about the Clintons coming up later.
No shit.
It almost blew my mind.
unidentified
All right.
dan friesen
Considering it is a conspiracy that I'm positive he had a part in putting out in the world.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
And absolutely, Alex Jones and Roger Stone have perpetuated so hard.
It's crazy.
But we'll get to that here in a little bit.
Before that...
So he said that Hillary was a part of this pedophilia stuff, Bill Clinton being on the Lillian Express, Jeffrey Epstein's plane, all this stuff that doesn't take into account that Donald Trump is good friends with Jeffrey Epstein was on the plane.
jordan holmes
Hey, we don't need to think about the fact that Donald Trump also likes him.
dan friesen
Commented in, like, hey, Jeffrey Epstein's fun to hang out with.
jordan holmes
Likes him young.
dan friesen
Likes his women young.
jordan holmes
Likes him too young.
dan friesen
So, whatever.
They talk about that for a little bit, and then Larry tells his story.
Trademark story.
About how Hillary would go to witch churches.
unidentified
I love the witch churches stories.
Witches.
dan friesen
He talks about Linda Bloodworth Thomas.
jordan holmes
Oh, gotta get her in there!
dan friesen
But the way he tells the story is almost exactly the same as he's told it in the past, and we've listened to it before, so I felt like it wasn't worth...
Us re-hearing him tell someone else the same story.
So just know that this clip starts right after he's talking about how she went to witch churches.
jordan holmes
Ooh, love witch churches.
larry nichols
So finally, I said, look, we know the people at Channel 11, which is a local TV network, one of the three.
unidentified
Witch!
larry nichols
And I said, why don't I, you always go to church on Sunday at the Methodist Church.
I'm going to set up a camera crew.
And we're going to do just an impromptu, just looks like it accidentally happened, you coming out of the Methodist Church.
jordan holmes
It's an impromptu everywhere.
larry nichols
And you come out, and I want you to really pour on the dog.
I mean, I want you to talk about your faith in Jesus, etc., etc.
She turned away from me.
I remember it like it was yesterday.
I've told the stories many times.
I know people that hear me very much probably get tired of it, but it's that significant.
She turned away from me with her back to me, and then she turned her head to the left.
And she said, you know, I can't do that.
And then she turned her head back and she walked away from me.
Now, what does that mean?
jordan holmes
Holy water.
larry nichols
I know you're a spiritual man.
coach dave daubenmire
I am.
dan friesen
Okay.
jordan holmes
All right.
Thanks, Coach Dave.
dan friesen
That story is the stupidest shit I've ever heard in my life.
The idea of a politician, you're like, hey, we're going to do this staged thing where you don't want people to know that you're a fucking witch, so you go to church, and we're going to set up the news crews there, and you talk about loving Jesus.
You know I can't do that.
unidentified
Why not?
jordan holmes
Oh, you know, I just don't have time.
dan friesen
I'm doing the witch stuff.
jordan holmes
It's busy.
unidentified
Are you sure it's not because you're a witch?
dan friesen
Larry, no.
unidentified
All right, you got me!
jordan holmes
I'm Hillary Clinton, the witch!
dan friesen
No, fuck that.
In that conversation that he's clearly making up, the two of them both know that she's a witch.
All the information is wide open on the table.
He knows that she knows.
She knows that he knows everything.
He's like, I know you're a witch, but we need good PR here.
That's the presentation that he's making.
And so this idea that she, an ambitious, driven politician who wants to eventually become president while her husband, who used to be the president, will take over the UN and they'll become the most powerful couple in the world.
jordan holmes
In history.
dan friesen
Which somehow...
How could it not?
And the FEMA provisional government.
I'm not entirely sure how all that relates, but that's Larry's worldview.
So she's this ambitious politician at that point.
Just, you know, nascent stage politician who needs all the good press she can get.
Her guy Friday comes in and he's like, I'll tell you what, what you need to do is...
A very manufactured and clearly duplicitous speech about your faith that all politicians do.
I cannot do that.
unidentified
What?
dan friesen
I love Satan too much.
jordan holmes
You can just ask.
I mean, if Satan's working so hard to get you to run the world as the Antichrist, he would give you the day off, man!
dan friesen
Let's fucking pump the brakes.
I don't have the fucking time to go through every single speech Hillary Clinton has ever made.
None of them are in churches.
jordan holmes
Never been to the church.
dan friesen
Positive.
jordan holmes
Have you ever seen her at a church?
dan friesen
Yeah, I'm sure I have.
Yeah, absolutely.
jordan holmes
Yeah, plenty of times.
A bunch of times.
dan friesen
Oh, when George H.W. Bush got his funeral, she was at a fucking church.
jordan holmes
I don't think she was there.
dan friesen
No.
Fake news.
She was too busy witching.
So Larry is trying to present this idea that she's a demon, I guess.
I'm not entirely sure.
So he ends that clip by saying, Coach, you're a religious man.
What does this mean?
And here's a little bit of analysis of what that could mean.
larry nichols
When I first met her, she was filthy, dirty, had greasy hair.
You've heard me talk about it.
jordan holmes
That doesn't sound like it at all.
larry nichols
Around her neck, she had hairy legs, hairy hair on her arms, wearing moo-moo and flip-flops, had a formal meet-and-greet with some rich farmers from Northeast Arkansas.
But around her neck, she had a chain, like a dog-tack chain, and there was a card on it, like a press pass, but it said, proud member of the Communist Party.
dan friesen
Absolutely not.
Alrighty, your story is...
Complete bullshit.
jordan holmes
So if I understand, Hillary Clinton, leader of the young Republicans.
dan friesen
A Goldwater gal.
Yeah.
unidentified
Her.
jordan holmes
Gotcha.
unidentified
All right.
jordan holmes
I buy this story 100%.
dan friesen
Had a chain at a meeting when she's married to Bill at this point, so it's post-law school.
larry nichols
I don't need any more evidence!
dan friesen
So she shows up.
Hairy armpits.
jordan holmes
Oh, yeah.
dan friesen
Stinking.
Wearing a burlap sack at this official meeting with financiers and all these respectable people with a fucking chain around her neck that says, card-carrying member of the Communist Party.
jordan holmes
Yep.
dan friesen
You gotta believe me.
jordan holmes
You gotta believe me.
dan friesen
This is what happened.
I was there for it.
unidentified
Listen.
dan friesen
Go fuck off.
jordan holmes
What was it Larry Nichols said to us?
unidentified
He was like, you believe what you want to believe.
Yeah.
I'm just telling you what I say.
dan friesen
Which is what liars say.
unidentified
Yep.
dan friesen
But also, like...
I don't necessarily not believe that Hillary might have had some communist-ish leanings when she was in college and stuff like that.
I'm willing to believe that.
I don't think that matters.
jordan holmes
I thought she was the leader of the young Republicans in college.
dan friesen
She was a Goldwater gal when she was younger, is what she always likes to talk about, the Goldwater Republicans.
jordan holmes
I would say she would have to have been in her early 20s to mid-30s before she's...
Jumping into the let's go all natural French style grooming habits.
dan friesen
But here's what I'm saying.
I agree.
But I'm willing to accept the possibility that she presented a certain way and had a certain ideology that might not have matched up.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
Whatever.
I'm willing to believe that.
I am not willing to believe what Larry is selling here.
I'm not willing to believe in any way.
Because if I have to believe that, then the only thing I can believe is that Hillary Clinton...
When she was younger, and Larry Nichols knew her, was the fiercest troll of all time.
Like, she was going to this meeting with financiers with a tag that says member of the Communist Party, like, just trying to fuck with them or something.
Like, that's what I'd have to believe.
She's a fucking edgelord from way back.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
And I don't believe that.
jordan holmes
And she's been making shit tons of money off of speeches to these rich assholes.
Forever!
dan friesen
Well, that's because Larry convinced her to shave those damn legs.
jordan holmes
Oh, that actually does make sense.
dan friesen
So, yeah.
I don't believe any of this.
I don't believe any of this.
But, yeah.
jordan holmes
I truly don't believe Hillary Clinton has ever looked like that in her entire life.
dan friesen
I'm willing to believe it possibly, but that might just be based on the pictures I've seen of Bill with a huge beard.
jordan holmes
Not even on Halloween, do I think.
That she looked like that.
dan friesen
Bill Clinton used to have a giant beard, baby.
jordan holmes
Yeah, but he's Bill fucking Clinton.
He did all kinds of weird...
dan friesen
William Jefferson fucking Clinton.
jordan holmes
He did all kinds of fucking weird shit.
Hillary is Hillary, man.
I feel like since Hillary was nine years old, she was like, I am going to run this fucking world.
dan friesen
Yeah, but she probably had some wild oats in her life.
She's still a human.
Anyway, Larry has more to say about this period of time where she was absolutely not wearing a sign that said card-carrying member of the Communist Party to a fucking business lunch.
jordan holmes
How big is this sign?
unidentified
Huge.
jordan holmes
Okay.
larry nichols
She smelled.
And I just thought she smelled because of hygiene.
jordan holmes
Sure.
larry nichols
But for years after that, even when we got her cleaned up...
How did you do that?
jordan holmes
With a hose in the back?
larry nichols
Smell.
It's a smell.
It's kind of like rotten meat or rotten...
jordan holmes
She's a zombie now.
larry nichols
...awful odor.
And even today, as recent as maybe a couple, three months ago, people that went to one of her...
You know, rallies where she's talking and ended up getting close to the rope line or whatever.
People that know nothing of what I'm telling you say, God, boy, I tell you, it was terrible.
Somebody in her groups and they held horrible.
It was just over.
It's her.
Now, what is that?
jordan holmes
A lie?
coach dave daubenmire
Well, I have my opinion of what it is.
larry nichols
What is it?
coach dave daubenmire
In your opinion.
In my opinion, I believe that she's...
Demon-possessed.
Scripture talks about demons have an odor.
Give off an odor.
dan friesen
Larry's thrilled with that answer.
jordan holmes
Oh, yeah.
dan friesen
I mean, this is the same thing.
This is just Alex stuff over again now.
jordan holmes
She smells like sulfur.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
And Obama, two flies land on them because they're attracted to...
Yeah, this is all just that bullshit.
What he's saying here is just...
It's utter bullshit.
It's just crazy nonsense.
And in the same way that Larry is presenting himself at the beginning of this episode as someone who was so sure of himself and brought low because it appeals to the Christian mindset.
He knows what show he's on, and he's trying to appeal to that again.
Like, I don't know what that smell is.
It's a leading question.
It's a leading statement.
He's trying to get Coach to say the demon thing so he doesn't have to.
Anyway, this next clip.
Larry Nichols says something about the Clintons that I find unacceptable.
And not because he's trying to malign the Clintons or anything like that, but just because this is one of the stupider things I've ever heard in my life.
And it betrays that he's just making shit up.
Because there's no way that either of them said the thing that he's going to report that they said.
jordan holmes
It's insane that we're so immunized to this that the idea of two men agreeing that Hillary Clinton smells bad because she's a demon is not one of the dumber things that we've ever heard in our life.
This is just, oh, oh, yeah, yeah, of course she smells bad because she's a demon.
That's what Jordan and Dan talk about all the time.
dan friesen
That's sort of just like, blase.
jordan holmes
Oh, fine, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
This one is actually interesting to me.
So, here we go.
larry nichols
And then, I'm going to tell you another thing.
Bill Clinton told me once, because it got so bad.
Oh, I want to hear this.
All right, here you got Bill just running wild, going crazy.
Here you got Hillary driving this crazy.
jordan holmes
Driving this crazy?
larry nichols
I asked Bill, I said, Bill, why don't y 'all get divorced?
You don't love each other.
You don't want anything to do with each other.
And look at them now.
They don't even live together.
They don't live together.
He'd tell me over and over and over, we will never get a divorce.
And I'd say, my God, why not, Bill?
He'd say, well, that way we can never be forced to testify against each other in a courtroom.
jordan holmes
Nice!
coach dave daubenmire
Oh, my goodness.
larry nichols
Well, that's the truth.
coach dave daubenmire
That's the truth.
larry nichols
Hillary told me the same thing.
dan friesen
Oh, so both of them told you that?
I want to talk to you about this real quick, Jordan.
jordan holmes
How many times is it?
Alright, let's hear this.
dan friesen
The rule that holds that spouses cannot be made to testify against each other comes down to what's known as marital or spousal privilege.
In a weird piece of puritanical American history, this rule was not established based on any guideline of law, but because, quote, the sanctity of marriage should be fostered as a matter of social policy.
jordan holmes
I was going to say, that is a weird rule, isn't it?
dan friesen
It's only to make sure that spouses don't have to fight.
jordan holmes
It's only to make sure that women aren't allowed to testify against their husbands.
dan friesen
Well, not anymore, because there are so many exemptions to that.
So if it's an instance of a crime against a spouse...
That privilege is gone.
jordan holmes
No, no.
But it used to exist in that.
That's exactly why it was.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
But the public-facing version of it was, our social fabric depends on marital harmony, so we shouldn't make spouses fight with each other.
jordan holmes
Sacrosanct.
dan friesen
Exactly.
Regardless of the reason it was established, as it stands now, things that are communicated between couples are generally seen by the law as being intrinsically So, unless the two of them, Bill and Hillary Clinton, cooked up this conspiracy that they're putting forth themselves, most of the relevant information is not confidential.
This is a third party who they're plotting with.
Also, this is stupid.
The rule of spousal privilege does apply to federal crimes, but almost every state deals with the rules differently.
Colorado does not allow it for cases involving first degree, second degree, or third degree felonies.
So in various state crimes, you still would be possibly compelled to...
jordan holmes
Or held in contempt, were you not to.
dan friesen
Also, Larry is even stupider than it seems.
Again, this is from the Fordham Law Review.
Quote, in 1983, the Seventh Circuit held that privilege cannot be claimed by a witness who is alleging to have participated in the crime with which his or her spouse is charged and about which the witness is summoned to testify.
There's a big exemption to the rule of marital privilege that is known as the crime fraud exception, which holds that, quote, the marital testimony rule does not apply when two spouses are conspiring in a future or ongoing crime.
One spouse or the other may be compelled to testify in order to protect the safety of the public.
I would say that if anything Larry Nichols is saying is true, then the Clintons most certainly are conspiring in a future or ongoing crime, and thus their claim of merit or privilege is moot.
jordan holmes
Do you mean conspiring to dominate the world might be considered a crime?
dan friesen
You might think that.
Oh, no, no, no.
jordan holmes
We can't testify against each other, even though, of course, you have proven that we are trying to run the entire world.
dan friesen
The very idea of...
What Larry is saying is bullshit.
It's such nonsense.
Like, the idea that they stay together so they can't be compelled to testify against each other when the law is very clear that if you're conspiring together, you can.
I suspect that Larry just recently binged Arrested Development, and that's where he's coming up with this dumb shit.
Because that's a central point of the plot of Arrested Development.
And the timeline of when he did this interview might be, I'm late to the party on Arrested Development.
jordan holmes
This show's pretty good.
dan friesen
Hillary Clinton has a degree from Yale Law School and was published in the Harvard Law Review.
Bill Clinton has a degree from Yale Law School and studied at Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar.
Larry Nichols got fired from an advertising job for making collect calls to the Contras in Nicaragua.
I can't confirm that Larry Nichols even went to college before getting fired by the Arkansas Development Finance Authority for making 642 calls on behalf of the fucking contract.
My point is that I'm going to trust an understanding of the law.
I'm going to err on the side of the Clintons knowing what the law is.
Than this possible high school graduate who wrote jingles and then got fired for being involved in a Ron Contra.
jordan holmes
That is why the Clintons are so smart.
dan friesen
So sneaky.
jordan holmes
Because they know you will give them the benefit of the doubt over Larry Nichols.
Larry Nichols is the fall guy, Dan.
dan friesen
Right.
Sure he is.
Sure he is.
That's crazy stupid.
jordan holmes
I do think that the Clintons have one of the more fascinating relationships in recent history.
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
That is fascinating.
It has nothing to do with not being able to testify against each other.
dan friesen
No, no.
I think there'll probably be a real interesting story to tell here years down the line.
I mean, Hillary was...
Ostensibly going to be president less than two years ago.
jordan holmes
By any reasonable definition, she was going to be president two years ago.
dan friesen
And the popular vote.
jordan holmes
By all the rules of...
dan friesen
Any sort of real, in-depth understanding of what their relationship is like.
I do think it would be an interesting story, but there's no way we're going to get that for years.
unidentified
Absolutely not.
dan friesen
We're just going to get Larry Nichols saying bullshit.
jordan holmes
And you and I speculating is not going to be the answer.
dan friesen
We're just going to get Larry Nichols saying dumb...
jordan holmes
It is fun to say dumb shit about it, though.
dan friesen
Yeah.
So I told you earlier that Larry Nichols is going to say that one conspiracy about the Clintons is not true.
And this is so interesting to me.
Because Coach starts basically like a lightning round kind of thing.
I was like, tell me about this.
And so this is crazy.
coach dave daubenmire
You see a lot of stuff on the Internet.
The joke goes around.
I saw it on the Internet.
It's got to be true.
I'm talking now about two things that have really been confusing to me.
Number one, the whole Danny Williams thing.
I'm sure you know about Danny Williams.
larry nichols
Not true.
coach dave daubenmire
Not true?
No.
That's not Bill's kid.
larry nichols
No.
dan friesen
So Danny Williams is the supposed love child of Hillary Clinton.
jordan holmes
Oh, we did talk about that one.
dan friesen
It's something that Alex and Roger have been very pushing of.
And I'm almost certain, I can't prove it definitively, but I'm almost certain that Larry Nichols had some role in perpetuating this.
jordan holmes
And probably creating that lie.
dan friesen
I mean, it's possible.
Creating it or fostering it.
I seem to recall him talking about it on Alex's show, but I can't find...
I have way too many fucking clips in my archive to go through and find the specific one.
But I have a vague memory of him saying that it is true.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
So now, it's not true.
unidentified
I would never say that, even when I was on a shit ton of pills.
dan friesen
But, I have a further theory about this.
And it's not about Larry saying...
Hey, this one isn't true as a means of being fair to the Clintons or anything like that.
I think it serves to bolster what he's about to say.
coach dave daubenmire
Okay.
Second one, Larry.
Heard for a number of years, seen it all over the internet, that Webb Hubble is Chelsea's dad.
larry nichols
That is true.
I'm the one that put that out.
coach dave daubenmire
That is true.
larry nichols
That is true, 100%.
dan friesen
So there's a conspiracy that goes around that Webster Hubble, who's...
Someone in the Clinton orbit, he is actually Chelsea's dad.
Sure.
Why not?
I don't care.
It doesn't mean anything to me.
I don't think it has any bearing on anything that matters.
But here's what I'm saying.
He's shooting down the Danny Williams thing and saying that, yes, Webster Hubble is Chelsea's dad.
Because the bigger point that he wants to make is that Bill is impotent.
jordan holmes
Oh.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
I did not know that.
dan friesen
That's the further point that he wants to make.
jordan holmes
That's Larry Nichols' point.
dan friesen
He goes on to talk about, like, hey, I was sitting around with Bill, and I'm asking him, hey, man, why are you banging all these chicks?
Aren't you worried they're going to get pregnant?
And he's like, nah, shoot blanks.
So he's trying to create this, like, diminishing of Bill's masculinity by taking away his reproductive capability.
That is, like, I know that to us that doesn't matter, but in that world it does.
jordan holmes
I mean...
Yeah, but at the same time, I don't necessarily think that is...
I mean, yes, yes, that is important for taking down his masculinity for some reason.
dan friesen
Which matters to these people.
jordan holmes
Right.
But I also think that that's probably the only way for so many of these people to kind of create this reasonable expectation of Bill Clinton fucked everyone and yet has no love children?
That seems crazy.
So the only explanation is he shoots blanks.
dan friesen
What appears to be reasonable vis-a-vis Larry saying that Danny Williams isn't his love child.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
Only it's not reasonable because it is just to bolster the idea that Bill can't make cum right.
jordan holmes
Which I don't want to...
What?
Did you just say make cum right?
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
That's a weird turn of phrase.
dan friesen
I feel like it perfectly describes what Larry is...
jordan holmes
I get it.
That's just a weird...
I've never heard that before.
I like it.
I think that's a great way of...
unidentified
I'm a poet.
dan friesen
So whatever Larry is putting out there, he is refuting that in service of something he's more interested in.
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Demasculizing.
Demasculizing.
unidentified
Hey, little boy.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Emasculating.
Emasculating.
Yes.
dan friesen
But he does refute another point here that is a huge problem for Alex.
This next clip, What Larry Nichols says is a direct contradiction of Alex Jones' worldview entirely.
coach dave daubenmire
Larry, we've got about five minutes left here.
Is there a shadow government, Larry?
I mean, we hear about that and people make fun of it and say, oh, you're a conspiracy theorist.
You got a tinfoil hat, all that kind of stuff.
Are there men behind the curtains that are really pulling all the strings there?
larry nichols
No.
dan friesen
No?
larry nichols
Not with the Clintons.
No.
No.
Now, there are men behind the curtains that are financing the Clintons.
jordan holmes
Oh, well, yeah, that's true.
larry nichols
No, not since the Stevens brothers died.
No one has ever been in control of Bill and Hillary because Hillary will not allow it.
She has too much power.
jordan holmes
Ooh, I actually like that angle for him to deny it, though.
dan friesen
Well, of course, because the only world that he actually knows anything about is back in Arkansas.
jordan holmes
When he was ostensibly hired and facilitated his super secret agent career by the Stevens brothers.
dan friesen
I think it's entirely possible.
I'm not saying this is the case, but I think it's possible that Jack and Whit Stevens, as super rich...
Businessmen in Arkansas might have had some dirty dealings.
It's possible.
jordan holmes
No, not might have.
Almost certainly did.
dan friesen
And might have paid...
Larry Nichols to be sort of man on the ground in some capacity.
Making and funneling these phone calls in order to facilitate communication between Nicaragua and U.S. representatives.
I think that's entirely possible.
And so from that standpoint, I do see Larry having this image of mafia activity in Arkansas that is only surrounding Jack and Whit Stevens because those are the only context – Yeah.
Bill get outside of that world he now doesn't know anything about what's going on with it so of course he's like nah they're the big players they've now graduated Yeah, yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
I do find...
dan friesen
It's a lack of imagination.
jordan holmes
I do find the one thing, the one concrete thing that I have learned from this podcast is anytime two brothers are rich together, shady shit is going down.
dan friesen
Up to no good.
jordan holmes
Yeah, we've got Candymen, we've got Koch brothers, we've got the Stevens brothers.
How many more brothers do we have?
dan friesen
Well, the Whispers, those twins.
jordan holmes
The Whispers, absolutely.
unidentified
They're great.
jordan holmes
Tegan and Sarah, however, doing fine.
dan friesen
Sure.
So, look, I don't know.
I don't know how to slice this other than to say, like, it's really fucked up that Larry is coming on this show and saying there's no shadow government, nothing.
That implies that there's no globalists.
Like, all of this stuff, like, all of the idea of Alex's nefarious spider web of weirdos isn't true.
Like, Larry doesn't believe that shit that Alex says on his show.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
He thinks that there is nobody above the Clintons.
jordan holmes
Of course.
dan friesen
Now, maybe for Obama, he had other people above him.
unidentified
Maybe.
dan friesen
I don't know.
He doesn't say that, but maybe.
Maybe that's the case.
But, nah, not with the Clintons.
The Clintons are the top.
jordan holmes
I do appreciate Coach Dave treating the single most important question, I think, that you can imagine, which, is there a shadow government?
That's big.
All right, we got a few minutes left.
Let's toss this in there.
Is there a shadow government?
No?
All right, we're moving on.
dan friesen
Hey, Larry, lightning round here.
jordan holmes
Yeah, shadow government that's running the entire world trying to destroy everybody?
No?
All right, we're going to cut to break then.
dan friesen
So Larry's, at this point, spoken his piece.
He's told his backstory about the Arkansas days.
He's said that Hillary's a witch and smells weird.
He's lied about the idea of spousal privilege.
Not lied.
He's just dumb.
He doesn't even know.
jordan holmes
Yeah, of course.
dan friesen
He's lying about Bill and Hillary saying that's why they're still married.
unidentified
Of course.
dan friesen
But at the end of the episode, he says something real interesting.
larry nichols
No, I wish you would have me back on tomorrow and give me one hour to tell you America 2017 under Hillary.
I assure you.
It will scare you to your knees, number one.
Number two, it will be my opinion that I will substantiate it and support it with evidence and facts to prove that it's not just wild thinking.
jordan holmes
Not true.
larry nichols
But you need to think about, your audience needs to really think long and hard about what America's going to become in the next three years.
jordan holmes
A disaster.
larry nichols
How do I know about it?
Because I designed the 1986 plane.
coach dave daubenmire
You know how it works.
unidentified
I know.
larry nichols
By the way, Coach, before we go, I wish you, if it would be okay for me to ask people if they want to help me.
jordan holmes
Yeah!
coach dave daubenmire
Folks, Larry, tell me this.
larry nichols
Don't do it if it's going to make people not believe what I say.
coach dave daubenmire
LarryNichols.info.
LarryNichols.info.
Is that where they go, Larry?
larry nichols
Well, they can go there if they want to use a credit card, but if they want to help with PayPal, please just go to NicholsLive at AOL.com.
dan friesen
That is a crazy ad pivot.
jordan holmes
The craziest part is the AOL.com.
dan friesen
That is pretty crazy.
I'm at Hotmail.
That is pretty fun.
unidentified
I still use dial-up.
dan friesen
What's fun about that most to me, I believe, is that what you see there is a classic Jonesian ad pivot.
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Super Jonesian.
dan friesen
But there's an added layer to it that is the ad pivot starts with, have me back on tomorrow and I'll tell you all of this future information because I know what's going to happen when Hillary ends up winning.
I'm going to tell you this.
It's going to blow your mind and bring you to your knees.
Can I ask for money?
unidentified
By no means am I holding your audience hostage.
By no means am I saying I won't reveal this information if I do not get a shit ton more money.
dan friesen
I mean, Coach, this show is live.
He broadcasts it.
So the idea that Larry is coming on and being like, if you'll have me back on tomorrow, I'll tell you all this great information.
Now, the possibility is that Coach would say...
No, I don't want to have you on tomorrow.
And then the audience will be left lingering.
jordan holmes
Oh my god.
dan friesen
What information does Larry have that only leads them to search out Larry more?
jordan holmes
Dan, does he have the...
Does he have Larry Nichols on?
dan friesen
You bet he does.
unidentified
Oh no!
dan friesen
He's on the next day.
jordan holmes
Does Larry get some more money?
dan friesen
He doesn't actually explain what's going to happen in 2017 when Hillary's in charge.
jordan holmes
Oh, that's a surprise.
dan friesen
But what does end up happening is that Coach has his cadre of weirdos back.
Like, he has all the people on Skype.
jordan holmes
Oh, I just hope Mark isn't made angry.
dan friesen
Well, here's the thing.
He says the exact same things.
jordan holmes
Of course.
dan friesen
Here is him talking again about how you need to protect yourself from voter fraud.
larry nichols
You see, I do not recommend Coach.
You, maybe you and Jared, I don't recommend y 'all going to an inner-city precinct, just the two of you, and trying to monitor for voter fraud.
You could get hurt.
Remember last time in Philadelphia when they had the New Black Panthers out there?
unidentified
New Black Panthers!
larry nichols
Check it!
Or motorcycle gangs.
jordan holmes
Motorcycle gangs!
larry nichols
You can go to these precincts with, say, eight, nine, ten guys and just watch what happens.
And when you see it, do just what I told you.
Call the police or report it to the head of the polling place.
Call the police and then send that report to us.
That's what you've got to do.
And that will stop a goodly portion of it.
We'll not stop all of it, Coach.
It just won't.
coach dave daubenmire
We'll scare some of them away, though, from doing it.
unidentified
No!
dan friesen
That's the worst way.
jordan holmes
You're saying the quiet part loud!
dan friesen
Yeah, that's bad.
So, Jordan, we're an audio podcast, so it's difficult for you to pick up on why I care to talk about the second appearance at all.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
But it comes back to what I told you to remember, and that was what Coach said in the first clip.
Larry Nichols is sickly.
And he has these tubes.
And so out of respect for him, we're only going audio.
jordan holmes
Is Larry on video on the second episode?
dan friesen
He's on video.
jordan holmes
No.
How many tubes does he have in him?
dan friesen
They're really trying to play up how sick Larry is in all of this.
But he's on video in the second episode.
They go so far as to say he's going to be dead soon.
And he has cancer.
jordan holmes
He's going to be dead soon!
dan friesen
Certainly.
jordan holmes
I just talked to him.
dan friesen
Well, I don't know what the deal is about his real condition.
He very well may have cancer, or the tons of people online who have said they've contacted his wife and she said he doesn't have cancer.
All those people might be lying.
I don't know.
Who knows?
I don't give a shit.
It's not the biggest deal for me, really, because his whole life is a series of fraudulent scams.
So if he's scamming people into giving him money because he's pretending to be sick, it's just another in a long line of frauds.
From a 1998 article in Salon discussing Larry's life in the aftermath of being fired after he made 642 collect calls for the Contras, Larry, quote, faced theft by deception charges in several Arkansas counties.
He avoided prosecution by promising to make restitution, but later filed for bankruptcy and he never had to pay.
jordan holmes
Nice.
Nice work, Larry.
dan friesen
So, got out of criminal charges for people he defrauded by promising to pay them back and then didn't because he filed for bankruptcy.
He's a lifelong fucking con man.
jordan holmes
Jesus, man.
dan friesen
Either way, the only thing I want to talk about in terms of this is in that first interview, Coach doesn't want to put Larry on screen to protect his dignity as he's so sick.
On the second episode, he does show Larry on video, and what you see is a con man trying to make himself look very sick.
What am I getting at?
Well, he has tubes going into his nose, an oxygen machine to help him breathe.
He can't even breathe, Jordan.
He's just this hero out here trying to do his best he can, even in his horrible sickness to get the word out about the Clintons.
jordan holmes
Did he blackmail Congress, though?
dan friesen
No, not in this episode.
But during the show, which is only an hour long, by the way, Larry lights up a cigarette and smokes it with no concern for the fact that he has oxygen tubes in his nose near centimeters away from his face.
jordan holmes
Which would make it explode!
dan friesen
This is so severely fucked up.
According to the National Institutes of Health, quote, Most patients on home oxygen use nasal canali.
Nasal canali tubing is a polyvinyl chloride product, which when ignited emits an intense flame, possibly owing to the release of highly flammable vinyl chloride gas.
The prongs of cannula are intended to direct oxygen into the nose.
A previous study showed, however, that a significant amount of oxygen exits the nose and constantly leaks out and bathes the lower face.
The oxygen-enriched environment facilitates ignition and combustion of the material.
Smoking while using an oxygen machine is super, super dangerous.
You're essentially covering your face in a highly combustible gas and waving a flame really close to that gas.
The only two conclusions I could reach from this behavior are that either Larry doesn't give a shit about his health or well-being, is hoping to, quote, accidentally die in a house fire, or that he's faking his illness entirely.
These are fake oxygen tubes that are coming out of his nose.
This is hot bullshit.
He's straight up smoking a cigarette in the middle of...
jordan holmes
Dan, when you are writing things out chemically, what does the chemical symbol for adding fire to something look like?
dan friesen
It looks like a guy doing the...
jordan holmes
I thought it was just O2.
dan friesen
Man, it's very...
If you...
Out there, if you're listening and you don't believe me, I don't know why you wouldn't believe me, but if you have any curiosity about this at all, look it up.
Look up the cases, the very frequent incidents of people who are on oxygen machines and continue to smoke.
What ends up happening is it blows up, and it blows up and burns most of their face.
You can find pictures of this.
It's crazy.
What's crazy to me is how specific the burns are, generally, too.
It almost leaves a pattern of the tubing.
Because the tubing burns so specifically.
jordan holmes
Have you ever seen those, though?
Because all of the patterns that they leave are shaped like a little, almost like a little piece of paper that says Call Larry Nichols on it.
dan friesen
Call Larry Dinkles and tell him to stop smoking while you've got a goddamn oxygen tube in your nose.
jordan holmes
Believe what you want to believe.
dan friesen
We should call him and tell him to cut that shit out.
He's going to blow up his fucking house.
But he's not going to because it's fake tubes.
jordan holmes
So wait, that was two years ago, right?
And we just called him about a half hour ago.
dan friesen
We don't have recording of it or anything like that, but yes, we called him.
Jordan talked to him.
He sounds exactly the fucking same.
jordan holmes
He sounds exactly the fucking same!
He's fine!
dan friesen
The people who talk about contacting his wife and talking about, like, he doesn't have cancer, they have said that what he actually has is, like, lesions in his throat.
jordan holmes
Oh, yeah, no, I buy that.
dan friesen
Yeah, he has some sort of a situation that causes him to speak like that, and he's using the perception of, like, chronic illness in order to...
jordan holmes
No, I can buy him not wanting to, like, when we talk just now, I can buy him saying, you know, like, oh, I don't want to talk right now as being like, I don't want to talk for an hour right now because my throat hurts or whatever it is like that.
dan friesen
Also, if I were him, I wouldn't want to talk to us either.
I would put that off.
jordan holmes
I think he had a great time talking to us.
dan friesen
I don't think so.
jordan holmes
I really think he did.
dan friesen
He didn't ask us to give him any money.
Of course not!
He didn't try and pull that ad pivot on us.
jordan holmes
Hell no!
Did you hear our conversation?
He's not going to try and pull an ad pivot on us.
He knows nobody who listens to our show is going to be like, well, we've got to make sure Larry's okay so he can come back on the show.
dan friesen
This guy sounds reasonable.
No.
So, my point in this whole thing is that if you actually watch the videos of this, and they never bring it up, and Coach or none of the people he has on Skype are like, why are you smoking?
jordan holmes
Of course not.
dan friesen
You're on oxygen.
You're telling us this sob story about how you have lung cancer and you're dying and you don't want to go to the VA because you don't trust them.
This is bullshit.
jordan holmes
Do you know who keeps his face from being lit on fire, Dan?
dan friesen
God.
jordan holmes
The Lord.
dan friesen
You better.
jordan holmes
And that is why when you go on Coach Dave's show, it doesn't matter how much you smoke, it doesn't matter how much oxygen you got in your face, you have the power of the Lord behind you.
And the Lord is telling you that the only way...
To know who is good and who is evil is how bad Hillary Clinton smells.
dan friesen
I would love it if we test that thesis and have someone with an actual oxygen machine hooked up to them do some, like, fire breathing.
Fire dancing.
jordan holmes
I'm going to go out on a limb and say that that is not going to be sponsored by the National Institute of Science.
unidentified
No.
dan friesen
NIH is out.
jordan holmes
I think they might call that an unethical experiment.
dan friesen
I mean, this is super crazy.
What I want to say...
He was really smoking?
Oh yeah.
jordan holmes
That's crazy.
dan friesen
And clearly, not rolling his eyes, but clearly there was a look on his face of like...
He looked like he was not happy to be talking to these people.
jordan holmes
Of course not.
dan friesen
But look, the thing that I want to say, I can't say this, but I want to say it, and I feel this way.
It was a fake tube.
I think it was.
Because I don't think anybody...
Like, who has any idea of, like, what oxygen is.
Anybody who doesn't have a death wish is going to smoke while they have a nose tube in.
Larry presents himself as, like, I'm a really smart guy.
You know, he's not somebody who's unaware of the risks that that might pose.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
It's a prop.
jordan holmes
Now, I will say this just in fairness.
Just in complete fairness.
He may use oxygen.
That may be real.
dan friesen
Oh, sure.
jordan holmes
And he may have turned it off an hour or two before.
unidentified
Totally.
jordan holmes
That's entirely possible.
I'm not going to rule that out.
I'm not going to rule out that he may use that oxygen tube.
Because otherwise, I mean...
dan friesen
But he puts it in as a prop.
jordan holmes
Exactly.
Exactly.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
He may need it.
Otherwise, why would you have it?
Unless you're, like, committed to the scam, which obviously he is.
dan friesen
But in the picture shot, you don't see that it's connected to anything.
It would be like a $2 piece of tubing or whatever.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that's fair.
dan friesen
So whatever the case is, yeah, it's entirely possible that he does need to use oxygen, but puts on the thing as a prop because this is what it's really about.
coach dave daubenmire
Larry doesn't know how long he's going to be alive.
He told me the other day he hopes he makes it until Election Day.
But he needs funds.
Somebody out there, it's Larry.
LarryNichols.info.
You can go right there and donate to him.
jordan holmes
That was two years ago.
coach dave daubenmire
He needs help with medicine.
Just talking to him.
He can put on the breathing device.
He needs financial help.
So if some people could, you throw 10 or 20 bucks his way.
LarryNichols.info.
dan friesen
So this is what he's really up to.
He's just trying to con these dumb fucks into giving him money.
jordan holmes
10 or 20 bucks.
dan friesen
By lying about the Clintons.
And doing his shit.
jordan holmes
Jesus.
dan friesen
It's interesting because it's so much more overt here when we look at it in the prism of Coach's stuff than it is on Alex's show.
Because Alex is so much more high-minded.
And Alex's audience is so much larger that Larry probably doesn't feel the need to make it so overt.
Right.
The first time at the end of the first interview that he did when he was like...
Can I ask your audience for help?
Like that sort of thing.
He wouldn't do that on Alex's show.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
He trusts the process with Alex.
jordan holmes
Like the Philadelphia Sixers.
dan friesen
Right.
So we see here Larry Nichols gets coached.
He's on the coach program.
I mean, it's a little bit boring for our tastes, possibly.
You know, like big picture.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
He comes in, he says more or less the same sort of narratives he says other places.
jordan holmes
He does Larry Nichols shit.
dan friesen
There's some flourishes there.
There's no shadow government.
unidentified
No.
dan friesen
There's Danny Williams isn't his kid, but also that's in service of just his impotence narrative.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
He says some things that are kind of out of character, but big picture, kind of a disappointment.
jordan holmes
It is what Larry Nichols is.
Coach Dave, I think...
The problem with it is Doesn't bring it, man.
Coach Dave is just there for Larry Nichols.
dan friesen
You respect Larry too much.
jordan holmes
Yeah, Larry is the one doing everything, and we fucking talk to Larry.
Who gives a shit about what Larry is bringing to the table?
dan friesen
I don't know if he has cancer, but don't let him drive.
In an interview, don't let him...
jordan holmes
Especially not with cigarettes and oxygen in his face.
dan friesen
No, your car's going to blow up.
But don't let him lead the interview.
It becomes so boring.
Because of his stilted pace of speech, whether it's because of an actual illness or his affectations or whatever, he just becomes this low pace.
jordan holmes
Listen, I think gay people should be allowed to...
dan friesen
That's what Coach does when he has his druthers.
unidentified
That you're doing a good job.
dan friesen
Here's a really bad way I'm going to sum this up.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
This is a bad episode of Coach's show.
unidentified
It's a bad episode!
jordan holmes
That's a great way of putting it.
dan friesen
I've listened to a bunch of them, and they're much more entertaining.
He has Larry fucking Nichols on his show for two episodes, and because he respects him so much in this weird fetishizing of demonizing the left kind of stuff, he sacrifices control of his own brand to Larry, and it hurts.
It hurts him.
jordan holmes
Agreed.
And the moment you said that, that's a through line with so many of our...
dan friesen
They don't have confidence in their own products.
jordan holmes
So many of our people, it's like, if you're...
So many of our stable, if you're rolling your belly up for somebody else, it's a bad show for us.
Like with Alex rolling his belly for Gavin McGinnis.
unidentified
What do we got?
dan friesen
We tried to make it look a different way.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
Or with Carrie Cassidy.
Whenever she's fucking controlling things, she's putting the narrative out there.
She's got that shit.
Whenever Reverend David Manning is running the game, shit is going well.
But if Coach Dave is, like, letting Larry Nichols talk...
What are you fucking doing?
You're supposed to be that asshole!
dan friesen
Let him talk.
I think your point is very salient.
And I think it's the right point.
And that is that what we really are interested in, in terms of these Wednesday characters, is you have your own thing.
Right.
When Carrie is talking to someone and they insult Mark Richards, she gets fucking pissed at them.
jordan holmes
Hilarious!
dan friesen
Because it's her show, and you do not...
Disrespect Mark Richards on Project Camelot.
jordan holmes
Exactly!
dan friesen
Alex is an interesting case because when he had John McManus from the Birch Society on, he showed ass all over the place.
But at the same time, with Gavin, I think you misrepresented that.
jordan holmes
I think I did too.
dan friesen
He got so mad that Gavin wasn't supplicating that he...
jordan holmes
The moment I brought Alex and Gavin into it, I knew that that was the wrong example.
You're absolutely right.
dan friesen
Manning's just a wild card.
Because he generally doesn't talk to people on his own show and is just a raving lunatic who contradicts himself all over the place.
But he is his own thing.
The stuff that I like to talk about with these crazy ding-dongs is so much like them owning their space.
I like that.
I like to see Carrie Cassidy being like, get the fuck out of here if you don't agree with my version of Secret Space Program stuff.
Get the fuck out.
I like, even though I hate everything he says, I like Reverend Manning.
I mean, generally speaking, he's just talking to a camera by himself.
unidentified
Right.
jordan holmes
Being monstrous.
dan friesen
Or at the pulpit, and then it's just a cult that is under his sway.
But I still like him owning the space.
With Wacky Wednesday stuff, it's very hard for me to see somebody who, like, cucks themselves out for someone that we know is a charlatan.
Like, Larry Nichols isn't someone that you should bend over backwards for.
Even if Coach does believe all the stuff Larry believes, he still should be Coach.
He's not Coach.
jordan holmes
Here's the thing.
We would never do an episode...
Like, if Larry Nichols had his own show, we would never do it.
dan friesen
I would do one.
unidentified
No, it would be boring.
dan friesen
I'd do one to try it.
jordan holmes
Well, I suppose we would do one to try it.
But I think this is a Larry Nichols episode and we tried it.
dan friesen
I've listened to tons of episodes of various internet programs that Larry's been on and deemed them not worth our time or whatever.
I was kind of hoping the combination of Coach and him would make it.
Somehow more appealing.
But you're right.
And I think that we had to get to the end of this in order to really realize it.
jordan holmes
This was a Larry Nichols show.
It wasn't a Coach Dave show.
unidentified
Yep.
dan friesen
Larry Nichols.
Consumes coach when the two come in contact with each other.
jordan holmes
Exactly.
dan friesen
If we are going to look at this from a chemical standpoint or whatever, chemistry standpoint.
jordan holmes
It blew up on our faces.
We are the smokers of oxygen-rich environments.
dan friesen
We've learned a very valuable lesson.
unidentified
I agree.
dan friesen
I think we will carry that with us going forward.
Number one is that we'll talk to Larry soon, but also he's a pile of shit.
unidentified
Yep.
dan friesen
Second is that Coach is a finite variable.
I still want to explore him a bit more in the future, but he's nothing.
He buckles.
He folds like a taco when Larry Nichols comes around.
jordan holmes
He is not a dominant gene.
dan friesen
Nope.
unidentified
Nope.
dan friesen
He thinks he is.
But he supplicates like the best of them.
unidentified
So quick.
dan friesen
When it comes to someone like Larry Nichols coming around.
jordan holmes
Indeed.
dan friesen
So, we'll be back.
We'll catch you next time.
jordan holmes
Indeed.
dan friesen
Until then.
jordan holmes
We'll catch you next time.
dan friesen
Same bat time, same bat chance.
jordan holmes
No!
Who's on first?
dan friesen
We have a bat website.
It's knowledgebatfight.com.
Knowledgebatfight.com.
jordan holmes
We're on Twitter.
It's knowledgebat underscore fight.
dan friesen
Knowledge underscore fight.
jordan holmes
We're on FaceBat!
dan friesen
Go home and tell your bat you're brilliant.
We have a group on there.
jordan holmes
Yeah, and we're on iBatTunes, and you know the game.
dan friesen
Leave a bat review.
jordan holmes
Don't leave a bad review.
dan friesen
Leave a bat review.
I should articulate better.
We appreciate everyone listening so much.
Thank you all.
We'll be back soon, but look, I'll say this.
jordan holmes
Batman has totally killed a guy.
dan friesen
Definitely.
That guy has a fucking body count.
jordan holmes
No matter how much people want to argue that Batman never killed...
No, he's killed a lot of guys.
dan friesen
We talk about Alex as technically probably killing a guy.
If we look at it, it's probably from some aggressive beating he gave a guy that caused...
Like, chronic illness.
jordan holmes
Exactly.
dan friesen
Something like...
jordan holmes
Some kind of complications.
dan friesen
Batman has done way worse.
unidentified
Oh, yeah.
jordan holmes
Batman's done way worse.
dan friesen
Crushed people's sternums, head trauma, all that shit.
I would never let Batman off the hook.
Uh-uh.
But I will say that Larry Nichols is a complete fucking coward and a real douche in terms of his own backstory.
I don't believe there's any chance that Larry Nichols has ever killed a guy.
jordan holmes
Agreed.
dan friesen
But Alex Jones definitely, technically, probably has.
alex jones
Andy in Kansas, you're on the air.
dan friesen
Thanks for holding.
jordan holmes
Hello, Alex.
unidentified
I'm a first-time caller.
I'm a huge fan.
I love your work.
