Today, Dan and Jordan check in on what went down over the weekend on the Alex Jones Show. In this installment, Alex embarks on a disgusting quest against Oprah, decides that maybe he's actually into QAnon now, and tries to make a big scene at a park with an undersized bullhorn.

unidentified
I have great respect for Knowledge Fight.
alex jones
Knowledge Fight.
I love your world.
unidentified
Knowledge fight.
alex jones
Not knowledgefight.com.
I love you.
dan friesen
Hey, everybody.
Welcome back to Knowledge Fight.
I'm Dan.
jordan holmes
I'm Jordan.
dan friesen
Workable dudes like to sit around and drink novelty beverages and talk just a little bit about Alex Jones.
jordan holmes
Oh, indeed we are, Dan.
dan friesen
Jordan.
unidentified
Dan!
dan friesen
Jordan!
jordan holmes
Quick question for you.
dan friesen
What's up?
jordan holmes
What's your bright spot today?
unidentified
Well.
jordan holmes
Well!
dan friesen
Jordan.
jordan holmes
Yes, sir.
dan friesen
I have been noticing a bit of stagnation on Alex's part.
unidentified
Uh-huh.
dan friesen
And I feel like...
Because we're a show that talks about Alex and we kind of have to just go along with whatever he does, a lot of the times it leads to our content maybe feeling a little stagnant too.
Because if the source material is iffy...
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
Then, I mean, you know, if it's A, A, A, A, you know, the same thing over and over again.
jordan holmes
No, of course.
It's repetitive.
dan friesen
It leads us into a situation where, like, well, if we're covering a repetitive thing, sometimes it could tend to get repetitive.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
And so I was trying to brainstorm and think about ways around this, and one of the things that I considered was, you know, murder.
You nailed it.
Damn it!
unidentified
No.
jordan holmes
Oh, okay.
dan friesen
I was thinking about things that we did in the past that maybe we could do again to try and liven things up.
jordan holmes
Juicing it, we get that juice!
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
And if we can't do that with Alex, we'll do it without him.
Yeah.
So, in that spirit, you don't even know this.
jordan holmes
I don't even know this.
dan friesen
I would like to announce that we have a phone number again.
unidentified
No!
jordan holmes
Did we always have a phone number and you just never checked it?
dan friesen
No, back then I couldn't afford it anymore.
Oh, that's right.
Back then we were doing so terribly financially that I couldn't afford the Skype number.
So neon nips went away.
jordan holmes
I enjoy our measurement of success now.
We can afford a phone line!
dan friesen
It's $50 for a year, and I couldn't afford it back then.
But, you know, there's a lot of things in terms of the show that I would like to be able to do more of, which is...
You know, including some perspectives of folks outside of you and I. Of course, of course.
We are both, you know, cis white men, and if there are people who have other lived experiences, I would love for their voices to be able to be heard on the show.
But at the same time, there is not really room for guests on this show.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it is tough.
dan friesen
It's kind of like we're trapped here, and bringing anyone else in isn't fair or right.
jordan holmes
You know how sometimes...
Somebody's on one of those shows, and they're like, obviously they've never listened to the show before, and everybody's like, okay, you're not caught up.
That would be like our show, but you have to listen to 450 episodes to get caught up.
dan friesen
And then I just dread the idea of sitting next to somebody and then being like, why do you do this?
And me being like, I don't know.
unidentified
I don't have an answer.
dan friesen
Or why does anyone listen to this?
Can't tell you.
jordan holmes
I don't know!
dan friesen
Don't know.
jordan holmes
I don't know!
dan friesen
So, the other voices than ours are something that I've always wanted to be able to incorporate better, but one of the things that I always thought was kind of difficult about that was the idea of someone writing in and us reading.
Sure.
I don't know.
jordan holmes
Sure, sure.
dan friesen
But then also, some people just like probably to make some dumb jokes, and I'm fine with that, too.
unidentified
Yeah, that'll happen.
dan friesen
So, if people want to call and leave voicemails, our new phone number is 1 for the country code.
unidentified
Yes.
dan friesen
For the United States of America.
No, we got that.
773.
Got a Chicago area code.
jordan holmes
All day, every day.
dan friesen
It's really difficult to get things that spell out words.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that's tough.
dan friesen
So I had to go through a lot.
jordan holmes
Of phone numbers.
dan friesen
Trying to put them into anagram discoverers and stuff.
jordan holmes
You had a great day playing Boggle.
dan friesen
And I wish that I was a child because I found a phone number that was 773 UP PENIS.
unidentified
Ooh, Dan.
dan friesen
I can't do it.
Dan.
It's also US PENIS.
jordan holmes
Now that I can't say no to.
dan friesen
I can't do it.
jordan holmes
US PENIS.
Not me, US PENIS.
dan friesen
If I was a child, perhaps.
One of the other phone numbers that was in the running was ALPSBRO.
jordan holmes
Alps, bro?
dan friesen
Yeah, because I'm a mountain guy.
jordan holmes
I don't like Alps, bro.
dan friesen
And what we've landed on is 773 tat guys.
Because we both have tattoos.
jordan holmes
We do both have tattoos.
dan friesen
T-A-T guys.
So now my sign-on on every episode is going to be, hello, welcome to the show, we're the tat guys.
jordan holmes
Get out of here.
No, you're fired.
You're fired.
Now my answer is murder.
unidentified
Okay.
jordan holmes
That's the situation.
dan friesen
So yeah, if you're out there listening and you're thinking that you'd like to leave a message.
I can't promise that we'll play all of them on the show, given that there may be a bunch.
I have no idea how many people will call and leave messages, but you are welcome to do that there.
jordan holmes
See, where we get into trouble is then we're like, we gotta go, we gotta listen to some voicemail.
So then we do our show and we're like, oh, we didn't have time to get to voicemails today.
We're turning into our own.
dan friesen
Maybe that'll be our running bit.
jordan holmes
That'll be great.
dan friesen
Alright, so I got us a phone number.
jordan holmes
What's your bright spot?
Tat Bros.
I also got us a phone number.
This is very much a...
dan friesen
Don't confuse people.
jordan holmes
That's what I'm saying.
I got tap bros.
This is an O. Henry-like situation.
Oh, no.
It's a gift of the Magi circumstance.
dan friesen
No, you'd have to have some sort of a gift for me that gets rid of a phone number or taking away people's phones.
jordan holmes
I ended electricity, Dan.
Okay.
dan friesen
That would be a gift.
jordan holmes
That would be a gift.
dan friesen
No, it wouldn't.
jordan holmes
No, the new album by Washed Out is fantastic.
unidentified
Okay.
jordan holmes
It's really, really good.
I had the chance to...
I think it came out last Friday.
And I had a chance to do a real deep listen today.
Fantastic album.
Really great.
dan friesen
Awesome.
jordan holmes
Do you know who Washed Out is?
dan friesen
No.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I didn't think so.
It's like Chill Wave.
dan friesen
Okay.
jordan holmes
It's that kind of...
Okay.
Let me give you an idea of what it sounds like.
unidentified
Wah, wah, wah, wah, wah, wah, wah.
jordan holmes
Okay.
Keanu Reeves just had a bad situation happen in his life.
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
He's on a bus or he's walking.
Looking into the middle distance, some Washed Out starts playing.
dan friesen
What era...
Keanu Reeves.
Current Keanu Reeves are like Sweet November.
jordan holmes
2005.
dan friesen
Okay, so a little bit after Sweet November.
unidentified
Exactly.
jordan holmes
Yes, yeah, yeah.
Post-Matrix, pre-Other Good Things.
When he was in the Lost Days.
dan friesen
When did the Walk in the Clouds come out?
jordan holmes
Then you get to the bridge and he makes a decision and then the same song is playing, but he's moved on with his life and everybody's happy again.
dan friesen
Okay.
jordan holmes
It's the same song.
dan friesen
That doesn't help me.
I'll check them out.
If it's good, I'll enjoy it.
jordan holmes
You'll listen to it and understand what I'm saying.
dan friesen
Perhaps.
jordan holmes
Immediately.
dan friesen
So, Jordan, today we've got an episode to go over.
Interesting stuff, somewhat.
There's something really funny at the end, so get excited for that.
We're going to be covering the period of August 7th to 9th, 2020.
I'm Dan.
I'm a chat guy, and this is 2020.
This is just going to get so long.
jordan holmes
By the end of 2020, it's going to be an hour-long intro.
dan friesen
It may be.
So, yeah, we've got the weekend to go over.
Alex did a show on Saturday, Sunday, so we've got that business to go over.
But before we do that, let's take a little moment to say thank you to some folks who signed up and are supporting the show.

dan friesen
If you're out there listening and you're thinking, hey, I enjoy the show, I'd like to support with these gents.
unidentified
Do you?
dan friesen
You can do that by going to our website, knowledgefight.com, clicking the button that says support the show.
We would appreciate it.
Or you could take that generosity, lay it down on a pan, cover it in marinara.
jordan holmes
Marinara?
dan friesen
A little bit of mozzarella.
jordan holmes
Are we making a charity lasagna?
dan friesen
Making a pizza, making a delivery.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
30 minutes to a charity in your area.
Help people in need.
jordan holmes
A wise man said, forgiveness is divine, but never pay full price for late pizza.
dan friesen
Is that Splinter from the Ninja Turtles?
jordan holmes
No, it's Michelangelo from the Ninja Turtles.
dan friesen
I couldn't remember if that was one of the times that Splinter made a funny.
jordan holmes
I believe there's at least three.
dan friesen
I don't remember.
I haven't seen those movies in a long time.
So, Jordan, we're gonna get onto this episode.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
But before we do, we have a little bit further business to go over.
Right.
And that is to take a little peek into the mailbag zip.
jordan holmes
All right.
dan friesen
This is from Charles W. Okay.
I'd like to thank him and also say I'm scared because he sent a 12-pack.
A 12-pack?
Yes.
jordan holmes
Oh, boy.
dan friesen
One flavor.
These are birch tree water seltzers.
This is tree water, my friend.
jordan holmes
Tree water.
dan friesen
Yes.
unidentified
Sap.
jordan holmes
Birch tree water and in parentheses sap as though...
dan friesen
I think sap's just the name of the brand.
jordan holmes
No, I think it means sap.
dan friesen
I don't think it's...
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
You don't cork a tree and then get water out of it.
jordan holmes
Why not?
dan friesen
Because that's not what comes out.
Maybe it is.
I don't know.
jordan holmes
What's the point of dreams?
dan friesen
I'm not a fucking arboreum guy.
Whatever.
Arbor guy.
jordan holmes
Arboretum guy?
dan friesen
Right.
773 Arbor guy.
So yeah, this is also dovetailing into the year of the...
jordan holmes
Alright.
dan friesen
So yeah, strawberry habanero is the flavor, which is a little bit terrifying.
jordan holmes
Interesting.
dan friesen
But I'm excited to give it a try.
jordan holmes
It smells pretty good.
It smells pretty good.
I'm going to have a taste myself here.
dan friesen
Alright, that's not spicy.
jordan holmes
No, that's just good.
dan friesen
Yeah, that's good.
I'm not even positive I get any habanero from that.
jordan holmes
No, I don't get any habanero.
dan friesen
I'm noticing something with seltzers, and that is that the level to which they're fizzy varies greatly.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that sounds right.
dan friesen
Most of them that I've had that are, like, really good tend to have very light fizziness.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I don't like a lot of fizz.
dan friesen
And then the ones that you get, the sort of mainstream seltzers, the Lacroix, the...
Polar.
Polar, great.
But those are more fizzy.
Those are the ones that...
Those are your everyday seltzers.
unidentified
Right, right, right.
dan friesen
The ones that are more along the lines of some of the classier ones.
Speaking of which, I've tried those Sanzos that got sent to us.
And I gotta say...
Mind-blowing.
jordan holmes
Mind-blowing.
dan friesen
Well, only in the sense that the Calamancy was one of the flavors.
jordan holmes
I've heard of a Calamancy before.
dan friesen
The other two flavors were lychee and mango, which were like, I kind of, you know, I've had lychee when I was younger.
I know the flavor-ish.
jordan holmes
You get the gist.
dan friesen
I know what a fucking mango is.
jordan holmes
You know what a mango is.
dan friesen
I don't know what a Calamancy is.
jordan holmes
It's like a, it's like a thing.
dan friesen
You don't know.
jordan holmes
It's like a melon.
dan friesen
You don't know what a fucking calamansi is.
unidentified
It's a melon.
dan friesen
Is it?
jordan holmes
I think I literally.
dan friesen
Gun to your head.
What's a calamansi?
jordan holmes
I genuinely think I just saw this on a cooking show two hours ago.
dan friesen
I don't think you did.
I don't think it's a melon.
I have no idea.
I didn't look it up, but it's great.
81 out of 100.
jordan holmes
81 out of 100.
dan friesen
Yep.
Spectacular.
jordan holmes
Damn.
I'm going to give this sap a high score.
I think this sap is really good.
dan friesen
I might, too.
I need to sit with it for a little while, though.
I need to think on it.
It tastes pretty good, though.
Thank you so much, Charles.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much, Charles.
dan friesen
Alright, Jordan, let's get down to business.
jordan holmes
Yes, sir.
dan friesen
This episode on the 7th sucks.
August 7th is utter trash.
It doesn't belong on the air.
It is pointless.
Most of it is just Alex rambling about how, you know, Trump had come out and said, this might be the last time you see me.
jordan holmes
Sure, sure.
unidentified
Yeah, great.
dan friesen
And Alex has decided that this is Trump raising the bat signal.
unidentified
Okay, okay.
dan friesen
And he keeps saying that.
The first half hour of his fucking show is about that.
alex jones
So I have a lot of enemies out there.
jordan holmes
This may be the last time you'll see me for a while.
donald j trump
A lot of very, very rich enemies, but they are not happy with what I'm doing.
unidentified
But I figure we have one chance to do it, and no other president's going to do what I do.
donald j trump
No other president would do a favored nations, a rebate, a buy from other nations at much less cost.
alex jones
Nobody.
donald j trump
And there are a lot of unhappy people, and they're very rich people, and they're very unhappy.
alex jones
So he's telling you, we got one shot to save the country, they may kill me.
Then I've got a stack of news here where they're saying we're going to kill him, we're going to remove him, we're going to use the military on him, and if the cabinet doesn't go along with it, we're going to put them in prison.
dan friesen
None of those articles say what Alex says they do, but it's a...
This is huge for Alex.
Most of his attention is on this.
jordan holmes
See, I just heard a shit ton of lies in a very short span of time, but apparently that was him announcing that he was going to die soon.
dan friesen
I heard a really weird dude say something weird.
unidentified
That's what I heard.
jordan holmes
I heard a creepy old man lie to my face about bullshit.
dan friesen
So that takes up a lot of Alex's attention, and I find it incredibly boring, and I don't care.
It will be used in order to escalate, like, you gotta do something.
jordan holmes
Sure, sure, sure.
dan friesen
Kind of talk, obviously.
jordan holmes
They're coming for him.
dan friesen
Yeah, but it's not organic in the beginnings of, on the 7th at least.
jordan holmes
Remember when Roger Stone got polonium poisoning?
dan friesen
A couple times.
jordan holmes
I think we're right about there.
dan friesen
Oh, no, they tried to T-bone him, too.
Yeah, exactly.
So, the other thing that's on Alex's mind is this New York Attorney General, of course, who has filed suit against the NRA and some of the leadership of the NRA.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
Alex happens to be friends with the creepiest, weirdo, gross, asshole monster who's involved with the NRA, and that's Ted Nugent.
greg reese
Yep.
dan friesen
And so he has Ted Nugent come on and talk about it.
ted nugent
I believe that the attacks on the NRA are the attacks on freedom by freedom haters and we all see and know who they are.
Right now is the time to give away NRA membership.
And how do I do that?
alex jones
I'm going to buy 100 memberships today.
I pledge 100 memberships today.
How do I call?
Do I call, and how does the NRA do that?
dan friesen
So then Nugent plugs his website where people can buy NRA memberships.
jordan holmes
No, no, no, of course.
dan friesen
And, I mean, like, I don't know.
jordan holmes
Did they not get that the problem here was that the NRA was taking people's money and then using it on themselves?
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
So by doing this, you're just essentially, like, that's the problem.
dan friesen
Yep.
jordan holmes
No, that's not the way to protest.
dan friesen
So the problem is financial malfeasance, and I really think that the solution is flooding them with cash.
jordan holmes
I gotta give them a bunch more money.
I just can't think of any other way to solve this problem.
dan friesen
Yeah.
Cool.
unidentified
Oh, boy.
dan friesen
Cool, that's good.
jordan holmes
America's smart, dude.
dan friesen
So Alex gets into complaining about generals.
Talking shit about Trump.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
Like, there was one of them who was along for the photo shoot outside of the White House where they went to that church where Trump held the Bible weird and they beat up a bunch of protesters before him.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
That was a good time.
dan friesen
And afterwards he was like, I shouldn't have done that.
Alex isn't happy about that, dude.
He's complaining about these generals a little bit and then he takes a harsh pivot.
unidentified
Real weird.
alex jones
I said to you weeks before, I said if the SECDEF and the chairman and others start shooting off their mouths against El Presidente, that means they're signaling to the big boys, the big powerful globalists that sold us out that they're scared.
They want to keep that $10 million job they got coming when they leave office.
They want to keep all those deals.
They want to sell us out to the Chi-Coms because they're wimps.
They might have been tough back when they were in Vietnam or when they were Green Berets, but they ain't tough.
Enough no more!
Because they get a little thing in the mail.
Hey, General Millie or whoever, we know about your mistress that lives a mile from your house.
Oh, well, hey, guess what, Millie?
We know about it too, buddy boy.
I'm going to burn down Oprah Winfrey politically and I'm going to burn you down before I'm done.
And I don't care what you do to me, I'll burn every one of you.
So just go ahead and punch your button up and send some illegal team to kill me.
I don't give a frickin' hell.
unidentified
Because there are some people in this country that aren't cowardly scum like you!
alex jones
Oprah Winfrey is a pedophile.
Oprah Winfrey likes girls.
12, 13, 14, 15-year-olds.
She hangs out with Jeffrey Epstein.
dan friesen
Well, not anymore, but no one hangs out with Jeffrey Epstein.
Well, apparently Steve Pachanek does believe that Epstein is still alive.
Yeah, so that was a weird pivot from the generals into yelling about Oprah.
Alex has been talking about Oprah a bit lately.
Not like in any depth.
jordan holmes
Are we still doing Oprah?
Is that a thing we're still doing?
dan friesen
He is doing.
It's been like over the last couple days before this, he brought her up a couple times like, man, I don't complain about her as much as I used to.
unidentified
Yeah, that's fair.
dan friesen
That kind of thing.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Almost nostalgic.
dan friesen
Yeah, I took notice of it, but I was like...
What is it?
Why?
You're just like, I used to complain about her a lot.
Now I don't.
Okay, well, I guess we're getting back into it.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I mean, that's like he could randomly pick a day to criticize Whoopi Goldberg again because there are two things that they have in common that he hates.
dan friesen
True.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, he does complain about her, but usually more Joy Behar when it comes to The View.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Because Alex claims that Joy Behar tried to have sex with him when he went on The View.
And whatever.
unidentified
All right.
jordan holmes
I thought he just loved Sister Act so much.
dan friesen
Nope.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
So, this is the last clip that I have from the 7th, because like I said, it is a garbage show, and when he announced this guest, I was like, no!
alex jones
And we got Dr. Andrew Wakefield joining us.
jordan holmes
No!
alex jones
Huge developments on forced inoculation that are now all out in the open.
dan friesen
So yeah, he's got Andrew Wakefield coming on to talk shit about vaccines.
jordan holmes
He's still free?
unidentified
I don't know.
I feel like he should be in jail for something, right?
I don't know.
jordan holmes
For something.
dan friesen
Well, I mean, he had Del Bigtree on just a couple days before this.
unidentified
Right, right, right.
dan friesen
The two of them are associated.
It's clearly some sort of a coordinated vex campaign that's going on.
And quite frankly, I didn't actually look into this.
I probably should have.
So I don't know if Bigtree has any association with it.
But Andrew Wakefield's kind of promoting a new film.
Oh, no.
And so, I mean, Andrew Wakefield and Del Bigtree work together on Vaxed.
unidentified
Sure, sure, sure.
dan friesen
So, like, that's the only reason I'm like, well, maybe that is actually, like, they're related in this.
I'm going to look that up.
jordan holmes
Do it!
dan friesen
I just checked on IMDb.
I have no idea.
There's not even a page for this documentary yet.
Quote-unquote documentary.
So anyway, yeah, Andrew Wakefield's on.
I just don't care.
I do not have time or respect for his opinions.
We've already talked about him in the past.
jordan holmes
I think somebody who's done that much damage in his life should not be allowed to just be on the radio.
dan friesen
It's a mess.
jordan holmes
You know?
dan friesen
Yeah.
So, we get to the 8th, Saturday.
Alex comes in for an emergency broadcast.
jordan holmes
Gotta do it.
dan friesen
And here's how he sets things up.
alex jones
We're going to be commercial free for the next two hours going out on our TV and radio satellites.
I know hundreds of thousands of people tuning in right now.
dan friesen
Alex leaves an hour and a half into this.
Well, he's got a half hour of special reports.
Oh, man.
So, real quick, just a little bit of a content warning.
Some talk about child abuse and those sorts of issues coming up, so if you're sensitive about those things.
Please tread carefully.
Alex has decided that he's going to do most of this Saturday show about Oprah Winfrey.
jordan holmes
I'm sorry, hold on one second.
What did you just say?
dan friesen
Yeah, it's mostly about Oprah Winfrey.
And it's about a particular misrepresentation that he's making that is monstrous and really disgusting.
alex jones
When I was reading about Oprah Winfrey...
And all the reports that have come out over the years of her, and not just being a lesbian, we're not judging her for that.
jordan holmes
Sounds like that.
alex jones
I'm going to hide behind that.
But her being into underage girls.
Well, then you have her hanging out with Harvey Weinstein, best friends with him.
You have her hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein.
You have her hanging out with Bill and Melinda Gates at Harvey Weinstein's and at Jeffrey Epstein's.
And you have, now people are digging into all the weird speeches she's given.
Hold on to your horses here.
I'm going to play it in a moment.
jordan holmes
You get a car!
alex jones
With her saying, children enjoy being molested.
dan friesen
So, this is a real gross misrepresentation of what she was saying.
This is part of an interview that she did in September 2019 with three of the now adults who have accused Michael Jackson of sexual abuse.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
And so, they're having this interview.
And it's in the context of the difficulty that survivors of abuse have surrounding their memories about it and physical sensations can feel good that you experience even though it's a victimization.
You don't have the language to understand that at the time.
And it's also a part of the conversation that she's having of the...
the person that they are victimizing feel good yes like the attention and the grooming behaviors are designed in order to make you feel good which makes it very difficult as you get older to put things into the proper context as you you grow and you heal it's honestly monstrous like I have no words for how disgusting this is yeah for Alex but for a number of reasons I mean one of them is that Alex yells about like Hollywood
Hollywood abusers all the time.
And this is Oprah giving a platform to people who have accused someone in Hollywood, someone very powerful in Hollywood of abuse.
So why is he...
He just doesn't want to cede the ground or something?
Or it's because it invalidates his entire argument about everybody but him and Trump being into abusing children.
jordan holmes
I mean, no, you can...
You can deny the argument, or you can go headlong into it and just fucking attack it from the front.
You know?
Like, of course that's...
She's talking to victims.
They're giving them a platform that Alex doesn't fucking do at all.
He's a monster, and she's...
I mean, I don't know.
Trying or something.
You know?
So you can either be like, nah, she's faking it and doing all this stuff and all that, or you can just go straight on and not even just, just like, fuck it, she's doing it.
dan friesen
Yeah, you can take the little clip that makes it sound like she's encouraging, abusing children or some shit.
And it's just...
It's disgusting.
And I find it abhorrent.
And it's a lot of this episode.
The Saturday is a lot of this.
jordan holmes
That's fucked.
dan friesen
And that makes me, like, really not want to cover it.
Because it's, you know, it's beyond the pale for me.
Like, I just...
There is a line.
And this is about where it's at for me.
And the other thing that's really fucked up is, like...
Milo Yiannopoulos literally said those things on Rogan's podcast.
jordan holmes
How did it go?
dan friesen
It went bad for his career, but he was on Alex's show on March 12th of this year.
jordan holmes
That's cruel.
dan friesen
I hate this guy.
That's just cruel.
jordan holmes
It's cruel.
dan friesen
Yep.
So that makes it really shitty when Alex says stuff like this because, I mean, it's just an outright lie.
alex jones
We're going to destroy Oprah Winfrey because she deserves it.
She's a dirty pedophile supporter, bare minimum.
And we're going to go after everybody here.
And we're going to take the gloves off.
And like my buddy said, Rob, we're going to put the brass knuckles on.
So the other day I said during the break, I said, I'm taking the gloves off.
He said, and then you need to put the brass knuckles on.
And that's right.
We're at a point now where I'm not just going to sit here and fight you with my bare fist.
I'm going to put the brass knuckles on.
That doesn't mean I'm gonna exaggerate or I'm gonna lie, but it means when I hit you, I'm gonna hit you to break your ribs and break your jaw and knock your eyes out of your teeth to put your ass on the ground.
dan friesen
It does mean you're gonna exaggerate and lie, but that's not even brass knuckles.
That's just doing anything.
You can't not exaggerate and lie.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that's your life.
It's your daily...
You wake up in the morning.
dan friesen
Such meaningless fucking bully talk nonsense.
We'll put on bros knuckles.
Fuck you.
jordan holmes
Could you puff your chest up a little bit for me?
I think the problem was he's going too small.
dan friesen
Yeah, real small.
jordan holmes
I need bigger out of him, you know?
dan friesen
So, Alex, you know, he's in this space where the globalists are making their move.
They're about to take out all the patriots and all that.
And Alex kind of realizes, if you listen to this clip, it's pretty clear that he realizes, like, I've said this shit a thousand times in the past.
Why would anyone believe me?
alex jones
But every second I'm thinking, what do we do to expose the deep state coup?
What do we do to expose their operation?
What do we do to warn America that this isn't like the past attacks that were just probing and conditioning us to stand down?
When they do outrageous stuff, this is the big attack.
This is the big takedown.
This is the big move.
Well, the biggest thing you can do is raise the alarm.
The globalists are more afraid of this show than any other, and I don't say that on a power trip.
Tucker Carlson is very riveting, very populist.
He does an amazing job, but he's unable to get into the really hardcore stuff that we are.
And he recognizes that.
dan friesen
Yeah, because people just ignore you, and he would get sued, and all the advertisers would go away.
jordan holmes
Now you understand it.
I think Alex gets that.
dan friesen
Yeah, I think he gets that.
And this whole framing is so stupid.
Just this, like, hey, you know, I said it's the big one a bunch of times, but this is the real big one.
And now the only thing that you can do is promote my show because the globalists are so scared of it.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that's...
dan friesen
Now, I know I've told you it's the big one a bunch in the past, but now it actually is, and I give you one outlet.
Me.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
Here's my problem.
When we have nursery rhymes that correctly outline the problem and the solution...
Adults should not fall for it.
Do you know what I mean?
dan friesen
I think there are two of them, right?
Yeah, there's plenty of them.
jordan holmes
There's tons of them.
How do adults not be like, oh, I remember the nursery story that I heard when I was four, and I have decided that I will ignore that dumb child.
dan friesen
Alex is getting bitten by that snake right now.
Good.
unidentified
Now...
dan friesen
We know from past experience that Alex is an enemy of QAnon.
Alex hates QAnon, but also tried to co-opt it in the past, and then it didn't work, and he got mad at them, thinks it's full of shit, and then he sold a bumper sticker that said, I am Q, and then threatened to expose the people who were doing Q at the beginning, and then never did it.
He gave them a week, and then nothing happened to that.
jordan holmes
I do like the arbitrary, I'm holding you hostage angle on this.
dan friesen
And then not following through at all because you're a dumb liar.
jordan holmes
I sent the finger, but I forgot the return address, so they don't really know where to contact us.
So I'll just deal with it some other time, honestly.
dan friesen
Well, there's a new development in QAnon land.
Alex might be into it now.
unidentified
Okay.
alex jones
I told you I know who shut up QAnon a few years ago.
One person's been in U.S. intelligence.
The other person works for Trump.
It was their idea.
It got taken away from them.
They got pissed about it.
They told me that.
Then it became this anti-Israel thing.
But then it got taken away from those people and became like a real movement against the pedophile rings and the New World Order.
So I said a few months ago, I guess about three months ago, we put a sticker out saying, I'm with Q. Be careful who tries to get you to do stuff.
Make sure you know who you're working with.
But the idea of citizens getting involved and exposing conspiracy in the New World Order is a good thing.
I said about three months ago, I think it's becoming something positive.
It started good because they looked at how I put out stuff against Hillary and WikiLeaks and how I got attacked, how I got sued, how I got all those things that happened.
jordan holmes
They were positive towards me, so I liked them.
alex jones
And they said, how do we put out stuff about spirit cooking and devil worship and the child kidnapping rings and the New World Order and the Deep State?
And not get hurt.
Well, we do it through 4chan and 8chan.
dan friesen
Right, whatever.
Now is a really good time to be like, hey, what's going on with the Wayfair story, Alex?
You followed up on that one, Alex?
jordan holmes
Yeah, no, it's done.
dan friesen
They got him.
They got him.
This is just so pathetic.
And actually, I honestly know exactly what's going on.
I knew immediately what was going on.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And he even...
Spells it out for us in this next clip, basically.
alex jones
Now it's gotten so huge and so grassroots that I guess the original creators of it thought it had failed, but then it got even more successful, so I'm all for it.
And the left's really upset about it.
But if you're a Q person, you should watch Arlington Road and learn how they'll trick you to crash a train into a ship, pull a truck up in front of the Hoover Dam, and how they'll use globalist operatives to make you think you're with Q. And make you think you're with secret agents and getting orders to go do things, and that is not the case.
dan friesen
Arlington Road's a documentary, Jordan.
jordan holmes
It's a documentary.
dan friesen
So, what's going on here is that Alex, I think, rightly recognizes the queue is so fucking nonsensical now.
There's so many offshoots and different groups, and a bunch of people are being kicked off social media.
To the point where there's going to be rampant decentralization and he's going to be able to snipe some of the audience.
jordan holmes
Nom, nom, nom, nom, nom.
dan friesen
Yes.
jordan holmes
I get my little piece of the pie.
dan friesen
Yeah.
And I can try and create this dumb narrative of like, I know who started it and now it's back on the right track and now I can be on board.
But he's just trying to co-opt it again.
jordan holmes
How many Q-Q's have we dealt with?
dan friesen
Apparently two.
At least two Q-Q's.
jordan holmes
At least two Q-Q's.
dan friesen
Yeah.
Well, so they were the original people who were like Trump and intelligence people.
jordan holmes
Right.
unidentified
Why not?
dan friesen
And then it got taken away from them.
jordan holmes
Yes.
dan friesen
By who?
jordan holmes
Not important.
dan friesen
No one knows.
jordan holmes
Not important.
How did it get taken away from them?
dan friesen
Given to some anti-Israel people.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
Unspecific who those people are.
jordan holmes
Did they just steal the keys?
dan friesen
Don't know.
unidentified
Doesn't matter.
jordan holmes
Was the building unlocked?
Is it squatter's rights?
dan friesen
Then someone took it from them.
unidentified
Yes.
dan friesen
Whatever that means.
jordan holmes
Well, I assume it was the pro-Israel people.
Someone took it from them.
dan friesen
This is bad even as a fake story.
Even if I was reading this as fiction, I would find this boring.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that's not good.
dan friesen
And it's not real.
So, that's the end of the eighth for us, because, I mean, there's nothing.
It's mostly him yelling about Oprah.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
And I don't have time for it.
jordan holmes
Are we mad at Oprah again?
unidentified
Why?
dan friesen
He is.
unidentified
Why?
dan friesen
Well, because one of his interns found that stupid clip from her interview and decided we could take this out of context and make it look like she supports child abuse.
jordan holmes
It's so good when your only job as a researcher is to just check blogs to see what other idiots have posted and steal it.
dan friesen
Yeah, just cruise 4chan and Reddit, find some...
Something on some sort of toxic board and like, oh, we can make a- That's great.
We can get attention for this.
jordan holmes
That's easy stuff.
dan friesen
Yep.
jordan holmes
Wow.
dan friesen
So we get in on the 9th on Sunday and Alex is back on the Trump said that you might not see me for a while.
unidentified
Uh-huh.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
That's a bit of what's going on.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
And then, man.
jordan holmes
Is Oprah going to kill him?
dan friesen
No.
Oprah is not really all that in play.
jordan holmes
Oprah's on the back bench again.
Okay.
We just had a good day of Oprah.
dan friesen
Saturday was Oprah day.
Sunday, we rest.
unidentified
Okay.
alex jones
There's a headline at Gateway Pundit.
Rumors swirling.
President Trump's recent actions indicate something huge is about to happen.
And Gateway Pundit...
It's been around for a while, but it's really become central in D.C. And Trump, I can tell you, looks at it every few hours.
And so when they tell you that, you can put your money on it.
And, you know, they call it rumors so they can protect their sources, I can tell you that.
These are not rumors.
Facts are swirling or blasting out of a giant active volcano or firing out of the barrel of a machine gun.
jordan holmes
No, like, peaceful metaphors?
alex jones
Facts are swirling.
dan friesen
Swirling facts!
jordan holmes
Swirling facts.
dan friesen
I'd like to remind you the Gateway Pundit hired Jacob Wall.
jordan holmes
Yeah, because he's great!
dan friesen
Right.
jordan holmes
Nobody can hide his tracks better than a Jacob Wall.
dan friesen
Yeah, I agree.
So yeah, there's a coup going on against Trump, and that's what there's gossip of, but it's actually facts that are swirling.
jordan holmes
Swirling facts.
dan friesen
Trump, bat signal.
unidentified
Robin.
dan friesen
Poison Ivy.
jordan holmes
I would like my facts in a bulleted list.
I don't want them to swirl.
That would be confusing.
Put them in a bulleted list.
And if Alex is telling me that there are swirling facts, it's his job to grab them from the air and put them in a bulleted list for him.
dan friesen
That's his job!
That's what people who are conveyors of information do.
They take information, they synthesize it, and they present it in a way that's useful.
jordan holmes
So then I can use it.
unidentified
Swirl.
dan friesen
Swirling facts.
jordan holmes
I'm just going to let those facts keep swirling.
dan friesen
Well, here's a fact that we have nailed down and put on a bulleted list.
Trump has a bat signal, and he's fired it.
alex jones
So you see Trump firing the bat signal, as I said on Friday, and telling the world that he may not be around for a while.
dan friesen
Mr. Freeze.
jordan holmes
Okay.
alex jones
Because of the huge enemies he has coming after him.
He's talking about his government having to go underground during the attempt to encircle and burn down the White House.
The groups are now publicly saying they're going to do...
jordan holmes
That's an ICE reference.
alex jones
This is serious.
Or you're talking about seeing you in the afterlife in heaven.
But it's very, very cryptic to get people's attention.
And it's where we are because...
The talking point, even in the local paper today, and Austin would open it up, was, well, Trump is going to get arrested and thrown out of the White House by the military for not leaving office.
And they're putting that idea out there so they can trick a group to run a military coup against him.
Before the election, they'll say, oh, he was planning something dirty.
They're just normalizing, oh, Trump's going to get killed or Trump's going to be arrested.
It's everywhere.
It's their main talking point.
dan friesen
So that's his narrative and his angle that he's coming with.
People are talking about whether or not Trump is going to respect the results of the election, not because Trump keeps talking about 16 more years and things that are completely against the norms of our democracy.
jordan holmes
Well, he would like to delay the election.
dan friesen
Certainly there's been some talk of that from him, which Alex said that the Democrats were going to do, but it turns out, oh no, Trump did it.
jordan holmes
Well, don't worry about it when Trump does it.
dan friesen
So, yeah, I mean, like, it's not because of that stuff.
It's because they are trying to normalize this discussion because they plan to coup him before the election.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
So, great.
jordan holmes
Yeah, this is one of those things where it's like, I want to shout this to everyone with any modicum of power.
These people need to be treated like children.
You cannot talk about what we should do with our democracy with these people.
You need to be like...
Here's what we're going to do.
You can sit down.
Yes, they're violent children, but that's the only way to deal with this.
You can't reason with them.
dan friesen
Yeah, I hear you and I understand the point that you're making.
I even have trouble giving a prescriptive.
Kind of answer the way that you are.
You're saying treat them like children.
jordan holmes
They're children.
dan friesen
Right, but I don't know if that would work.
jordan holmes
Eh, we'll see.
dan friesen
You know, I don't know.
jordan holmes
Give me supreme power and we'll figure it out.
dan friesen
Well, I don't know if I support that.
jordan holmes
I'm really sure it's a good idea.
dan friesen
Even as a dear friend and business associate of yours, I don't know if I support your...
jordan holmes
Look, I know, but I'm going to kidnap you and use your logic like a supervillain.
I'm going to keep you in a little tube.
dan friesen
Wait.
What kind of tube?
I don't know.
jordan holmes
You are putting together a nice terrarium in there.
It's true.
I'll just scale it up.
dan friesen
You know what?
That is true.
I'm putting together this terrarium for Old Mantis Housephone.
jordan holmes
Is it for him or is it for you?
dan friesen
It is very much like, what would I want if I was a mantis?
I'd want some grass.
I got little mini Easter Island heads because I think that is something that evokes wonder.
And I want this mantis to have a natural curiosity about its surroundings.
jordan holmes
Think about this, Dan.
Think about this.
I gain supreme power, and I give you those things.
You never have to want for anything ever again, and then I come and consult you for advice.
dan friesen
I don't like this, because I want to be like an advisor pet.
It's no good.
jordan holmes
Well, look, I could put you in a cage and we could put you in a terrarium.
dan friesen
You're doing a bad job of selling me on this.
I think I have to work against you now.
jordan holmes
I think the point of having a supreme leader is that I don't have to sell people on stuff.
dan friesen
Right.
I guess if you're like Cage or Terrarium, I'll pick Terrarium, obviously.
jordan holmes
As your old, as a good friend of yours, Dan, I will give you the choice of Cage or Terrarium.
dan friesen
What a gracious Supreme Leader.
jordan holmes
I am a great guy!
dan friesen
Alright, I'll make sure this never happens.
So, um...
This is where things fell off the wagon for me.
That's a bad use of terms, because Alex isn't drunk.
This is where the wheels fell off the wagon.
jordan holmes
Gotcha.
dan friesen
Just fell apart, because I got really confused about this clip.
alex jones
Austin, in the 90s, in hundreds of different forced purchases, bought, last time I checked, 300,000 acres, but just the Barton Creek Canyon area, That runs right through the middle of Austin, from west of Austin, out of Ripping Springs, where you've got some areas, you know, 400-foot-tall cliffs.
That was hundreds of millions of dollars of U.S. taxpayer money, billions total now paid out, and most of it was forced land taken, saying it's the Edwards Aquifer Recharge Zone in an environmental area, and it would always be free and open to the public.
Well, who could police something like that?
You can't.
Well, now they propose charging you to go on there, and they've beefed up their code enforcers and their bureaucrats, but to do it, they need an excuse.
Well, now they're saying COVID-19, and literal...
unidentified
The whole plan makes sense now.
alex jones
My wife, I already knew what was going on, I was planning to go over there, but my wife went with one of her friends hiking this morning, and the young women literally barked at her.
When they came out of the trail, because, you know, they're pumped, leftist SJW kids that work for the mayor and for Antifa and the UN and all the rest of it.
They don't, you know, get up at 9 in the morning.
So my wife and her friend come hiking out of the Greenbelt, and they bark at them and say, what are you doing?
You've got to register, and the park's full.
You're not allowed to be in there.
Now you have to understand, on the biggest days you go to the Greenbelt in areas that are more rural, The place I was at, the Hill of Life is what the entrance is down.
jordan holmes
This is a great story, by the way.
alex jones
You might see somebody every five minutes when you're down there walking.
That's on the weekend.
Some areas by deeper water and where there's waterfalls and things, you might see a hundred people.
dan friesen
What are we doing?
jordan holmes
Is my grandma telling me this story?
dan friesen
What are we doing?
This show is so weird.
On Friday, Alex is rambling about the NRA and interviewing Andrew Wakefield about vaccines.
jordan holmes
Gotta get him.
dan friesen
Saturday, he's yelling about Oprah Winfrey.
unidentified
Oprah!
dan friesen
And on Sunday, he seems to be suggesting that COVID-19 is a hoax in order to charge people to go to Barton Springs based on the fact that his wife got turned away.
jordan holmes
There you go, Dan.
It makes perfect sense.
dan friesen
This is such a good microcosm of Alex's taking personal issues and turning them into global things.
His wife had an inconvenience temporarily at a park, and now it's like, this is all about the land buys back in the 90s in Austin.
jordan holmes
The whole thing!
I knew it all along!
I knew it all along, and it just clicked when my wife was temporarily bothered with her friend, the yoga teacher, who heard some stuff.
dan friesen
No, I think it was Tennis Partner.
jordan holmes
Oh, Tennis Partner, that's right.
dan friesen
So yeah, I listened to that, and I was like, this is...
This is weird.
And Alex was promoting that he had a video of himself going down there.
unidentified
And so I was like, I'm excited for that.
dan friesen
I was blown away by this.
I haven't laughed this hard at something Alex has done in ages.
It was very cathartic, especially after listening to that Saturday show that was so distasteful.
To have something this pathetic and hilarious was a real palate cleanser.
jordan holmes
Is he doing a redux of the grotto?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But it's with nobody in there?
dan friesen
What happens is, without giving too much away, Alex's wife got turned away or something, got talked to, like, hey, you should need to, you know, parks full, whatever, that morning.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
Then, Alex goes back with a camera guy.
And tries to provoke a confrontation with a tiny bullhorn.
He has a tiny bullhorn.
jordan holmes
He does not have a tiny bullhorn.
He has a tiny bullhorn.
How big?
Hand size?
dan friesen
It's not big enough.
It looks really small and funny.
jordan holmes
It's a cartoon.
dan friesen
Yeah.
And so he just yells.
A bunch.
And all the people who are there are kind of like, God damn it.
You can see them kind of just looking at their phones.
jordan holmes
Jesus.
dan friesen
And Alex just being a completely impotent weirdo screaming at people for no reason.
jordan holmes
Here's my pitch on a new product.
Tiny bullhorns that make your voice quieter.
unidentified
Ooh.
jordan holmes
See, now that I think is a great idea.
dan friesen
Yeah, that'd be a good prank gift.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
Like a butterfly that shoots out.
dan friesen
Exactly.
So, Alex gets to talking about some COVID death discrepancies.
And I honestly think that this is maybe one of the most important things that we could point out right now.
Alex is dancing around a really dangerous line and actually crossing it, sort of casually.
And he better be really, really careful.
alex jones
And they've put all these regular people that died of other things in the column, and you know all the rest of the story.
One.
160,000 die in the U.S. Most of them fake numbers from other things.
Car wrecks, gunshot wounds.
There's a story out today.
A seven-year-old boy died of COVID.
He fell down in the shower, hit his head, had a seizure, and bled to death.
And they did an instant rapid test, the ones that are almost totally fake, and said COVID.
So they said on the news, he had no pre-existing conditions and died of COVID.
He had no pre-existing until he hit his head and died.
But that's...
they even have fake people that didn't even exist saying they died to create fear and all these gullible stupid sheeple that love to be schmucks stay with us So, Alex is lying about that seven-year-old that died.
dan friesen
This was a boy in Savannah, Georgia, who died approximately two weeks ago, but was included in the most recent state COVID-19 numbers.
Alex is saying that the media is claiming that his death was COVID-related, but in actuality, he fell in the shower and hit his head.
Alex is making that up.
According to an August 8th article in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the child, quote, had a fever-fueled seizure while in the bathtub and drowned.
The article is pretty clear about the situation.
The county coroner, Bill Wessinger, quote, cautioned that the full results of the Georgia Bureau of Investigation autopsy are still pending and may be a long time coming.
But he said preliminary investigation suggests COVID-19 gave the boy a fever, which triggered a seizure that happened to occur while he was bathing.
Alex is so invested in lying about COVID-19 that he's willing to make shit up about the circumstances surrounding a seven-year-old child's death.
That sort of thing is absolutely disgraceful, and there's no excuse for behaving that way.
Also, he might want to tread very carefully around the territory of, quote, fake people being used to create the image of death.
unidentified
Why?
jordan holmes
Has that ever been an issue before?
dan friesen
That's very, very close to crisis actors talk.
If I'm being honest, this is a really scary development in Alex's COVID narratives.
His whole race-specific bioweapon stuff was dumb, and the they're-calling-car-crashes-COVID stuff is dangerous and idiotic, but if he pursues this line of conspiracy much further, he's going to put thousands of people at risk.
Both are stupid, but there's a distinct difference between conspiracies about COVID deaths being mislabeled COVID-19 and fake people being used to boost death numbers, and it's a line that should never be crossed without very good evidence and specific information.
Before you cross that line, when it's just a matter of deaths being mislabeled, the villain is the nebulous globalists.
It's the fat cats, the elites, the man.
It's the people that the audience can shake their fists at but not really know who they're mad at, but it's enough for them to direct their impotent outrage somewhere.
Alex can take that, direct it, then profit from their fears.
Because it's real people dying, real families grieving, and then someone cheating a spreadsheet.
Once you cross the line into the idea that it's fake people being used to boost death numbers, the victims and their families become possible villains, which is super dangerous.
It's what we saw with Sandy Hook, and why the crisis actor narratives there were so destructive.
If you believe that the victims were actors, then you have to believe that the families were in on the whole thing, and probably villains too.
Alex suggesting that there are fake people being used to boost COVID-19 death numbers is him opening that door.
And he better be super fucking careful because he could fuck around and encourage a harassment campaign that's almost unfathomably large.
The vagueness here is one of the largest problems.
If Alex is asserting that there are fake people in the COVID death totals and doesn't speak very specifically about what names he's talking about and how he's verified that these aren't real people, he's introducing the idea to his audience that any of the names of victims they see could be fake people.
Can you imagine a QAnon-type online community doing flawed-ass research into COVID deaths and then doxing people who are relatives of neighbors of people who they suspect of being fake COVID deaths?
I couldn't imagine that a few years ago, but I can now.
What Alex is doing here is the first step down that road.
It doesn't mean that it necessarily will grow to that, but that happening?
this is the first step of it.
And it's reprehensible for him to behave this way, no matter what, but especially considering that he's currently being sued for doing exactly this as it relates to Sandy Hook.
And he knows the effect that this kind of thing can have.
He knows how he can re-traumatize people.
He has every reason to fully understand the consequences of his actions, and yet he refuses to learn Yeah.
unidentified
Yep.
dan friesen
You can't do these sorts of narratives.
You just can't.
They're monstrous.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I mean, we are at the space now where the default, though, is to assume that there's no bottom.
unidentified
The default is to assume that it will continue to escalate.
jordan holmes
I have a hard time believing that taking that first step doesn't mean taking all of the steps.
dan friesen
It's hard to say right now because, I mean, we're recording this on the same day that this episode was broadcast.
Right.
unidentified
I don't know what he's going to do in the future, but like.
dan friesen
Not even real people!
jordan holmes
That's what so many people want to hear.
That's what so many people want to hear.
They want to hear that...
Look, this is awful.
Even if you're anti-mask or anything like that, you still have to admit that this is awful, and you have to account for it in what you do.
That's why you see Republican leaders being like, reopen schools.
Some people are going to die.
Just account for it.
Just put it in our fucking numbers.
But what people really want to hear is, there isn't even a problem.
Well, the problem isn't that people are dying.
The problem is that they're lying to us about it.
dan friesen
I think that people would love that, but I think it's unrealistic that anyone would ever really even accept that.
What they can do...
Is accept anything that takes things down a degree.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
You know, you take things down just a little bit.
It's like, well, yeah, people are dying, but it's less than you think.
jordan holmes
Take the edge off.
dan friesen
Yeah, that somehow softens the blow.
jordan holmes
Whoa, whoa, 150,000?
No, no, no.
It's 70. Right.
See, no big deal.
unidentified
Great.
dan friesen
Yeah, and I mean, just, it's pointless.
It doesn't get anywhere in terms of the narratives that Alex wants to push.
I don't see how this is productive, and I only see trouble that could come from it.
And I pray that it doesn't.
Because, especially in the way that Alex has been escalating his violence in his narratives, and the way he's been talking about how the time may come.
You gotta take one for the team and take out these globalists.
Like, okay, if there are fake dead people...
Do you not think that someone might put two and two together there and think, hey, I should maybe...
The Sandy Hook victims' families were harassed and had death threats sent their way.
It's not outside the realm of the behavior that we've seen.
I'll quote Alex on this.
Past behavior isn't a good indication of future performance.
So, I don't know.
jordan holmes
Well, I mean, the scale of it is just astonishing.
With Sandy Hook, there's a relatively limited number of people that you can harass.
But with this, I mean, how many people haven't been touched by it in some way?
dan friesen
Well, everyone's a crisis actor.
jordan holmes
Everyone's a crisis actor.
dan friesen
So, Alex is mad at Dr. Fauci, because of course he is.
And I've noticed that he's been complaining about one thing kind of in particular a lot in the past couple days.
anthony fauci
You've got to think of the vaccine as a tool to be able to get a pandemic to no longer be a pandemic, but to be something that's well controlled.
jordan holmes
Great rebuttal, buddy.
alex jones
and the guy can't even throw a pitch.
He literally threw it 40 feet in the left field.
Great rebuttal.
Everything he does is a fraud.
Everything he does is a scam.
He's Fauci the fraud.
dan friesen
So yeah, he's been really obsessed with the pitch.
The first pitch.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, I mean...
dan friesen
It wasn't good.
jordan holmes
It seems really reasonable to play a clip of a guy saying, don't worry about that.
Look, I get what you're saying, but it's just a tool to get things under control.
Yeah.
That's hard to argue with.
dan friesen
Wow, his pitch sucked.
jordan holmes
But a man throwing a shitty pitch.
dan friesen
That was real bad.
jordan holmes
Are you not even manly enough to throw 85 down the pipe?
60 feet, 6 inches?
How can I trust you with this vaccine information, Dan?
dan friesen
Typically when you're like a 70-year-old doctor.
Head of department, I don't expect you to pitch well.
That's not usually...
I don't know.
That's not in my list of qualifications I demand.
jordan holmes
We should have a test for every federal employee.
What kind of gun you got?
dan friesen
Yeah, yeah.
So Alex, he's a scaremonger.
I can tell you that from listening to his show.
He likes to scare people.
He's kind of obsessed with it.
But in this next clip, he explains that he is not a scaremonger.
unidentified
Oh, okay.
alex jones
I want to say something that I only say every six months or so, but I want to make it super clear because it's really my ethos and what I stand for.
I know it's what you stand for as well.
I've been on air 26 years, and very early on, people would send me letters and they'd say, You're scaring my wife, or you're scaring my brother, or my father, or my husband, or my son.
And I wish you'd stop telling them all this stuff, because now they're obsessed with you, and our lives change, and why are you trying to scare my family?
jordan holmes
So you understand why QAnon is a problem.
alex jones
If I hear dogs barking at 2 a.m., this happened back when I was a kid, dog was barking, and the house next to us was on fire.
And I was like 10 years old, and I got her body up, and...
The fire department came.
We watched the neighbor's house get put out.
I wasn't being a fear monger when the dog's barking and going crazy to get up and to go look out the window in the neighbor's house and the red flames shooting out of the roof.
I wasn't a hero either.
unidentified
I was like, good job, kid.
alex jones
This could have gotten a lot worse because the neighbors didn't even know their house was on fire.
Because they were asleep in the downstairs.
They were old people.
Some electrical fire, but...
People think, oh, Jones is a fear porn dealer.
Yeah, he just, you know, likes to scare people.
dan friesen
He does.
And here's what I like to say about that shitty, childish metaphor.
I don't care whether or not Alex called the fire department when he was a kid and saved his neighbor's house.
He might have, might not have, might be a lie.
I don't care.
jordan holmes
Don't care.
dan friesen
He's using this story to illustrate how he sees himself in the world.
He's this kid who hears the dog barking and warns his neighbors that their house is on fire, thereby saving their house.
It's a very simple thing.
The fire is the globalists.
The house is the country.
jordan holmes
It seems like he's never not the hero in his own story.
Always.
Always.
dan friesen
That's a great story if the house is on fire.
But in reality, what Alex does, metaphorically, is hear a dog barking and he assumes that the house must be on fire.
And then he insists that the house is on fire and that the fire marshal has secretly told him that the house is on fire.
And you know what?
Alex has seen stuff like this in the past and has all the telltale signs of the neighbors setting the fire themselves to scam insurance money.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that sounds right.
dan friesen
The only information he has to go on is dogs barking and the rest of the story is his infantile mind just writing this weird narrative in order to contextualize the dog barking in a way that fits the view of the world that he has, which is basically just from movies.
jordan holmes
I would also argue another metaphor could be his neighbor's house is on fire and he's like...
It's not on fire that much.
Look at that other house over there that's not on fire.
Let's all go talk to that house and ignore that fire.
dan friesen
If you didn't like the first neighbor, then you might do that.
jordan holmes
Look at that nice house over there.
We don't even need to worry about the burning one.
dan friesen
When you metaphorically hear a dog barking, you should not assume that your neighbor's house is on fire because there's a ton of reasons that a dog could be barking.
For instance, my neighbor's dog barks whenever I come home and it hears my keys.
When you metaphorically hear a dog barking, you should check to see if the house is on fire.
This is the step that's missing from Alex's process, which is basically research.
You're welcome to be worried that your neighbor's house is on fire, but you should check and then gather evidence other than, I heard a dog barking.
Alex's metaphor doesn't work, because in his work and his career as an anti-New World Order propagandist, he's been able to find a whole lot of instances of dogs barking, but there's never really been a fire.
Even so, every time he hears a dog barking, he's certain that there's a fire and you're an idiot if you don't believe him, based on his years of expertise in the fields of fire and canine studies.
His career is all barks, no fire, and he sucks.
jordan holmes
Yeah, and he harasses the neighbors into, you know, somebody shooting a hole in their door for covering up the fire.
dan friesen
Undoubtedly.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
So this is funny.
Alex lies.
You know, I don't know exactly what you call it, but when you swear to God and you're lying.
jordan holmes
Blasphemy?
dan friesen
Yeah, I think that might be it.
alex jones
As God is my witness, I've never consciously lied to anybody about politics and issues.
Have I lied to a girlfriend I'm cheating on her and stuff like that?
Hell yes, I have.
I don't do that anymore and I repent on it.
jordan holmes
Are we doing?
dan friesen
Well, he repented.
jordan holmes
What are we doing here, Dan?
Dan, what are we doing here?
What is happening?
dan friesen
Alex has 100% intentionally lied about it.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
I would be more worried if that statement was true.
If all of the lies that we've heard him tell have been just like...
jordan holmes
Unconscious lies?
dan friesen
Yeah, or uncontrollable.
jordan holmes
If there were no purposeful lies, it would beg her credulity.
dan friesen
Yeah, it would be like, oh, you have a...
That's a neurological condition.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
No, you're in trouble.
You're in pain.
You need help.
dan friesen
Well, because there's even just a lie that I view as intentional in this next clip.
I assume that this is intentional.
If not, then he's...
I mean, we can talk about what the implications of that are later, but he's rambling about Antifa, and then he starts talking about Garrett Foster, the guy who got killed in Austin.
alex jones
But if you're a random person and you aim a gun at me, I'm going to kill you.
This isn't LARPing.
This isn't...
Fantasy world where you're playing video games all day.
This is the real world.
jordan holmes
For you it is.
alex jones
And you've taken America's restraint as weakness, just like the guy that got killed in Austin a few weeks ago pointing his guns at people at random checkpoints they set up.
He said, oh, they're a bunch of wimps, a bunch of pussies.
He says, I'm going to go out and intimidate them.
He goes, I like intimidating people.
Yeah, well, you came up, you blocked the car, you beat on it, you pointed your gun at somebody, you died.
He got shot five times in the chest.
You were dead on arrival at the hospital.
And now who's going to take care of your quadriplegic girlfriend?
Not you.
dan friesen
Fuck you, man.
jordan holmes
Wow.
dan friesen
That's disgusting.
unidentified
Wow.
dan friesen
At the end there.
But also, it's a lie.
Like, the part of where he's talking about, like, I like to intimidate people.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Alex has a video that he's played a bunch of times.
There was someone interviewing Foster earlier, and they were asking him why he was carrying.
And he explained that they had some friends who had gotten arrested, and so their First Amendment was being encroached, and so the Second Amendment was being exercised, and the guy asks him, do you expect to have to use that?
And he said, if I run into any police, I won't need to use it.
I would be dead.
And the people who want to fuck with us are pussies, basically.
They're not going to start anything.
He's not saying that he likes to intimidate people.
This is Alex...
I mean, that's an intentional lie.
Or else, it's just so subconscious for him.
Making up reality as he assumes it is, as opposed to how he knows it to be.
Because he's seen the video, he's played it a bunch of times.
He has every reason to know what Foster actually said.
But Alex's version of reality, his subjective experience...
Is experience to him as objective?
jordan holmes
I think I have an experiment for this that I really think might be illuminating.
I would really like Alex...
dan friesen
Put Alex in a terrarium.
jordan holmes
Well, that would be great.
That would be fantastic.
He'd be safe and he wouldn't be able to hurt anyone.
dan friesen
Tell him it's Barton Springs.
unidentified
It's all good.
jordan holmes
Yeah, exactly.
No.
What if he had to sit down and just transcribe a video?
Just like plain old, we're going to play you this video.
All you need to do is write down what they're saying.
dan friesen
He would refuse to do it so well.
jordan holmes
I would like to see what does he hear?
What does he physically hear in his brain?
Because it can't always be what people are saying.
dan friesen
It must not be.
I mean, you wonder how much is accurate depictions that he provides.
I go in a grocery store and someone turns into a demon at me.
It's like...
Are you just fucking around, or do you actually experience that?
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah.
Is that what you hear, you know?
dan friesen
The only thing that makes me think that he might actually hear or experience something close to that is that, like, he takes this video of something as concrete as Garrett Foster saying these things, and he has turned it into, I like to intimidate people.
And it should be, like, take all context away from it that this is a guy who's at a Black Lives Matter protest.
It's a guy with a gun saying he's asserting his Second Amendment.
Alex should be 100% on board with this.
jordan holmes
Couldn't be more on board.
dan friesen
But because he's against the cause of whatever, he's like, no.
He has a gun.
He's trying to intimidate people.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
It's nonsensical.
unidentified
Oh, man.
dan friesen
It's very worrying and just disgusting.
The idea of...
Who's going to take care of your quadriplegic girlfriend?
Go fuck yourself.
jordan holmes
That's so fucked up.
dan friesen
You piece of shit, man.
jordan holmes
That's the type of shit that you only see in a fucking Bond movie.
That's the level of psychopathy required to say that shit.
dan friesen
It's really a person devoid of empathy.
jordan holmes
Yeah, no, there's nothing in there.
dan friesen
The other thing, too, is that he's combining this Garrett Foster and his narratives about that Boogaloo Facebook group that were going to pull off these terrorist attacks that never ended up happening.
And so he's combined those two.
He's saying that Foster was a part of that, and there's no indication that that is the case.
And so you should go fuck yourself.
jordan holmes
Yeah, you lying piece of shit.
dan friesen
Now, Alex has a big scoop before we get into this really fun trip to the park.
jordan holmes
He's got a big scoop.
dan friesen
Yeah, this is fun.
alex jones
This is the play.
There'll be other plays, but we have the enemy playbook.
You know, like we were the coach of the Patriots, and we've got it.
I mean, we have the playbook.
I've proven we have the playbook.
It's here!
It's here!
And they go on to say...
Ms. Clinton had, but Mr. Podesta playing Biden shocked the organizers by saying he felt his party wouldn't let him concede.
Alleged voter suppression, he persuaded the governors of Wisconsin and Michigan to send pro-Biden electors to federal college.
In that scenario, Colorado, California, Oregon, and Washington then threatened to secede from the United States if Trump took office's plan.
The House named Mr. Biden president.
The Senate and White House stuck with Trump.
At that point, the scenario, the nation stopped looking to the media for cues and waited to see what the military would do.
And that's why they're getting ready for that.
That's what they're wargaming.
That's the plan.
This isn't rumors swirling.
It's treason swirling.
Ah!
unidentified
Ah!
Bigger.
Thank you.
Bigger.
jordan holmes
Bigger.
unidentified
Silver.
That and I. It's so sad.
dan friesen
Just like, I'm right out of breath.
unidentified
We're just doing a lot of guttural noises on the show recently.
dan friesen
Yeah, so there was a New York Times article about some war games exercises, you know, sort of like working through scenarios that a bunch of people, bipartisan, like a bunch of different folks, they engaged in this sort of exercise.
And that came out early August, and at the end of July, there was already an article about this in The Atlantic.
This isn't some kind of weird secret thing, but one of the scenarios they ended up playing out was one in which...
John Podesta played Biden and he doesn't concede.
And so they end up, you know, that's one of the scenarios.
There's a number of different scenarios.
And this is the one that Alex is fixating on and being like, this is what they're gonna do!
unidentified
Right, right, right, right.
dan friesen
It's all such nonsense.
jordan holmes
The one where Trump wins and everybody's fine, he doesn't deal with that war games.
The one where Biden wins and everybody's fine, he doesn't deal with that war games.
The only thing that he can fixate on is the most dramatic Almost cinematic version of events.
dan friesen
Yeah, the one that fits into his narratives.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
So, now, take you to Barton Springs.
Alex Jones.
His wife has been kicked out or something.
jordan holmes
Bastards!
dan friesen
Inconvenienced in some way.
jordan holmes
A response!
alex jones
So I used to pull over near my house.
This place will heal a life.
That's about a quarter mile hill.
And I used to go down into the green belt from there.
And you probably have 50 to 100 cars parked out there on a Sunday morning.
There are like 10 cars today, and they were turning back all these families from San Antonio, you name it, that came up here to go on the Greenbelt and the big, beautiful creek that's down there right now.
Totally sick, ladies and gentlemen.
But the good news is, we'll post this to Bandot Video.
We're premiering it right now.
It's not even posted yet.
We're premiering it right now.
That the police said, yeah, this is unenforceable.
There isn't even a law.
And they said we shouldn't have college kids down here enforcing this, and they shut them down.
jordan holmes
Shut them down.
dan friesen
Alex has racked up a victory against the globalists.
jordan holmes
He's taught those fucking college kids a lesson.
First the college kids, then the world!
dan friesen
So now Alex goes to a special report about his trip to Barton Springs that has some of the worst voiceover.
Like, I know that we've talked in the past, like, way back about how bad John Bowne is at voiceover.
jordan holmes
Oh, truly terrible.
dan friesen
There's another guy in town named Greg Reese, and he sucks even more.
jordan holmes
Okay.
greg reese
Austin City Mayor Steven Adler is attempting to seize control.
He has erected makeshift registration booths at park entrances and hired lifeguards who have lost their jobs as a result of the COVID shutdowns.
down really five and reservations and register the names of anyone who enters it's been going on all Wait, what?
jordan holmes
I'm not worried about it.
Still vibing.
greg reese
Ten park entrances have been set up like this by the Austin Parks Department.
It is unlawful.
It is nothing more than the edict of radical leftist Mayor Adler.
A power grab.
dan friesen
This is just so sad.
jordan holmes
Man, who produced that?
I want to know who produced that music, because they can't possibly be aware.
dan friesen
It's a royalty-free track.
jordan holmes
They can't possibly be aware.
dan friesen
It's probably Buckley.
unidentified
Yeah, oh, that could be.
dan friesen
Alex's cousin Buckley could have done some DJing for him.
jordan holmes
Man, that's not bad.
Seriously, I did not hear much of what he said.
I was just really, like, the break there where they switched it.
dan friesen
Maybe Leo Zagami did it.
jordan holmes
The snare, man.
The snare, when the snare kicked in, it's good stuff.
I like a well-programmed snare.
dan friesen
So, yeah, the bottom line is that Greg Reese believes that Agenda 21 is being enacted.
It's finally time.
Yeah, the Parks Department has put people up at the parks, so this is unlawful and unconstitutional.
jordan holmes
Who's doing Agenda 21?
dan friesen
Well, the lifeguards.
jordan holmes
Yeah, but wouldn't it be the president who's doing Agenda 21?
dan friesen
Oh, it's the UN through the lifeguards.
jordan holmes
Oh, those fucking lifeguards.
dan friesen
Yeah, the lifeguards work for UN.
jordan holmes
The UN has got the goods on the lifeguards.
dan friesen
So Alex gets to yelling, of course, with his tiny little bullhorn.
jordan holmes
Tiny bullhorn.
dan friesen
At this point, he just has the bullhorn in his hand.
It's like, this is such a...
So pathetic.
Like, you came down here specifically, like, you brought your bullhorn.
jordan holmes
No, he brought his backup bullhorn.
He brought his travel bullhorn, Dan.
It's like a travel toothbrush.
It's a little smaller, it fits in your back pocket.
dan friesen
It's a really sad display.
jordan holmes
Don't forget your towel, Dan, and don't forget...
dan friesen
It's pathetic.
You know, it'd be one thing if he was going about his business and then he had this interaction that happened organically.
But as it is, he's walking really fast past these people who are set up outside this trail entrance.
And he has a tiny bullhorn in his hand.
unidentified
It's just like he's begging them to say something.
alex jones
I've been coming here since I was in high school and college.
And now you guys use your COVID hoax to set a checkpoint up so you can take over the parks and start charging?
It's unconstitutional.
dan friesen
Started hot.
Started already going at all.
jordan holmes
Really out the game.
alex jones
This is not even a city ordinance.
This is an illegal power grab of the People's Greenbelt, and it's time to free Austin.
So are you guys volunteers with City Austin?
Who are you, masked man?
jordan holmes
I'm a lifeguard for Barton Springs.
alex jones
You're a lifeguard for Barton Springs, now part of the criminal power grab.
unidentified
Damn it!
alex jones
This is outrageous criminal activity.
unidentified
laughter laughter Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
dan friesen
There's a small part of me that wonders if this is a joke.
Like, it's obviously not.
He's taking this very, very seriously.
jordan holmes
But it's almost a parody.
This is the funniest thing he's ever done.
dan friesen
Absolutely.
jordan holmes
His jokes are horrendously bad, but this is great.
dan friesen
And I gotta be honest, like, there are very few things that I would recommend people watch.
Watch this for the tiny bullhorn.
It made me laugh really hard.
jordan holmes
Here's what I keep picturing.
dan friesen
Alex is like covered in sweat by the end of it with a tiny bullhorn.
jordan holmes
I just keep picturing the scene in the sandlot where they're at the pool and the girl lifeguard gives him mouth-to-mouth.
And right before he gives him mouth-to-mouth, just somebody with a bullhorn runs up and is like, Who are you?
This is a gross judge in Damascus bull!
dan friesen
Mr. Maskman.
Oh, man.
jordan holmes
I'm a lifeguard for the...
dan friesen
So this is where it gets personal and Alex yells at everybody about how his wife was allowed.
With a tiny bullhorn.
Tiny bullhorn.
unidentified
It is all color of law garbage.
My wife came here this morning when you cult member coops showed up here.
dan friesen
There is...
jordan holmes
What a...
dan friesen
There is no crowd that you can see.
There is maybe one other person there who's like taping this on their phone.
jordan holmes
I'm going to put this on my phone for sure.
dan friesen
The rest of the people who are like sitting in beach chairs or whatever are just sitting.
One girl's like looking at her phone.
It's ridiculous.
jordan holmes
All right, buddy.
unidentified
Okay.
alex jones
Can you ask her, where's her reservation?
Her reservation is that we live in a free country.
We live in Morocco.
unidentified
It's, uh...
dan friesen
This is a little much.
jordan holmes
This is the new Die Hard movie.
That's what I'm doing with this one right here.
dan friesen
Wow.
Oh, man.
jordan holmes
My wife's reservation is this is a free country.
I'm using that at the next Chicago restaurant I go to.
unidentified
Absolutely.
dan friesen
Go to a steakhouse.
unidentified
Yeah!
dan friesen
Fuck you.
jordan holmes
Get a tiny bullhorn, get a good table, move on with my life.
dan friesen
So, at this point, a family from San Antonio shows up, and they get turned away.
alex jones
Oh, no.
dan friesen
Thankfully, Alex is a hero.
greg reese
While we were there, a family from San Antonio arrived to enjoy the day in the park.
After an hour drive, they were turned away.
alex jones
Look at these poor people.
Hey, it's all unconstitutional.
It's all illegal.
greg reese
If I want to go in here, The gentleman from San Antonio spoke to the Austin police and was told that there is no law.
The police allowed the family to enjoy the park as the law permits.
jordan holmes
We're taking the park!
Over the hill, men!
We take the park at dawn!
dan friesen
Neighbors, there is no reason for a bullhorn.
I can't stress that enough.
Everyone could hear him.
Everyone, there was not a huge crowd.
Just talking, people could hear him.
Undoubtedly.
It's comical.
jordan holmes
I believe it.
dan friesen
So Alex is a little bit out of breath here.
Sure.
jordan holmes
His stamina's not what it used to be.
dan friesen
Certainly not, but I think that he realized, like, well, I've gotta make a scene.
I've successfully got this San Antonio family into the park.
And now...
jordan holmes
Chalk it up in the wind column.
dan friesen
I'm gonna grandstand for a crowd of nobody.
unidentified
Okay.
alex jones
And the very city that says blow up the police department, the very city that says blow up the police department, and that we don't need the police, Lifeguards can tell you that you can't go down there.
dan friesen
I think Alex realized right in the middle there that this narrative doesn't work for what happened because the police sided with the San Antonio family.
jordan holmes
That is an issue.
That is an issue.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
No, it's the...
I...
I am...
dan friesen
Where am I going with this?
jordan holmes
I'm mad at lifeguards right now.
Is that what I'm...
dan friesen
Okay, so Austin, as a city, is going to blow up the police station.
jordan holmes
Indeed it is.
dan friesen
And they have the police out here doing something that...
Wait, I like what they're doing out here.
How do I do this?
jordan holmes
I'm going to blow up the lifeguard station!
dan friesen
I just think that was a lack of preparedness on his part.
jordan holmes
This is not going the way he expected it to go, I don't think.
dan friesen
So there's a few more people now, but you can hear there's no cheering or anything, and that's because there is an absence of people.
But there's a few, and Alex now, at this point, tries to get people to bum rush.
alex jones
Totally.
Hey, guys, you ought to just go on in.
It's all color law.
It's all garbage.
unidentified
We have to stop submitting at some point.
alex jones
COVID-19 is a power grab hoax.
COVID-19 is a scam.
Is that your IQ?
One finger?
dan friesen
So what happened there is someone walked past his camera and flipped him off.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That one's easy to guess.
dan friesen
Not going great, this field piece.
jordan holmes
Nobody's raising their hand with a pointer finger out going like, excuse me, question.
dan friesen
But, I mean, what I find really interesting about this is that, I mean, this is very sad and a real bummer.
It's very clearly like a personal gripe that he's turning into a, like, maybe I can make a story out of this.
jordan holmes
Yeah, not good.
dan friesen
But on another level, it's kind of, you know...
Narrative completion.
He started his career a guy alone yelling into a bullhorn about nonsense on the streets in Austin with no crowds around.
And now he goes back to Barton Springs because his wife was asked if she had a reservation.
No one cares.
jordan holmes
This is a behind the music if I ever heard one.
dan friesen
People don't care.
It seemed like no one gave a shit.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
But Alex is working himself up into a sweat with a tiny little bullhorn.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And just like, whatever.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It doesn't have the cachet anymore.
dan friesen
No one's fighting him like he wants them to.
It's just like, all right, dude, just do what you're going to do.
jordan holmes
Yeah, come on, man.
dan friesen
So Alex comes back after this video.
He gets a little bit wistful about some of his memories about this trail.
alex jones
I've been going to the Greenbelt since I was a little kid.
I didn't know about that place until college.
And, man, I've walked down that with quite a few nice girls for a picnic by the creek.
unidentified
Had some good times there.
alex jones
It's got to be, what, 28 years?
29 years?
I'm old now, man.
God, I don't believe I was in college 29 years ago taking girls down there.
Now, if you told me this back then, I thought you were a crazy person.
jordan holmes
Pretty sure you thought everyone was a crazy person.
alex jones
And it illustrates everything.
Alright, there's a lot of other news.
We didn't have time to get to.
The crew points out that if I don't plug products, we won't be here.
These are really great products.
dan friesen
So yeah, I didn't have a lot of time to get to some of these important news stories.
Had to have this petty grievance with the creek.
jordan holmes
Man, my wife, she drove over a pothole, and now her axle's a little bit off, and I went to the city council, and I explained to them what was going on, and I realized that they are destroying the roads on purpose in order to institute Agenda 21 to defeat us all, and that's the roads!
dan friesen
I mean, you remember when he got that DUI and he decided he was going to go on a crusade about people who unjustly get DUIs?
jordan holmes
Yes.
dan friesen
That went fucking nowhere.
unidentified
How did it go?
dan friesen
Nowhere.
jordan holmes
I'm pretty sure he won.
dan friesen
He didn't bring it up again.
jordan holmes
I haven't gotten a DUI.
dan friesen
He hasn't brought it up since.
His campaign against people not being let in parks is just about his own personal problem that day.
This is all just such rank projection.
It's pretty hilarious, though, just because how impotent this field piece is.
I needed that really badly.
It made me laugh so hard.
Look, the bullhorn is too small for an adult.
And Alex is a thick adult.
So it's way too small for him.
If it's a manifestation of downsizing and cutting expenses at Infowars, then it's hilarious.
Because this couldn't crush any kind of tyranny.
This thing is a tiny bullhorn.
jordan holmes
Tyranny undercrusher.
All right.
Okay.
So it's your first day.
I know you're all 14 and 15, but on the first day, of course, now we have to practice what you would do if a large man with a tiny bullhorn accosted you.
It's state required now.
That picture of Alex Jones up there, we keep that.
Just to remind us what exactly it looks like and who it is who will be yelling at you.
dan friesen
Legit the only large man with a tiny bullhorn in the greater Austin area.
jordan holmes
I wouldn't say the only man.
dan friesen
Certainly.
jordan holmes
The only man willing to use it the way it was meant to be used.
dan friesen
He was a patriot.
jordan holmes
You know, he was a patriot.
Where do you get a tiny bullhorn?
And when you get a tiny bullhorn, do you think that was a good purchase?
dan friesen
It makes me think...
That he has like a hundred of them.
jordan holmes
An array of bullhorns?
unidentified
No, no, no.
dan friesen
There's a hundred of those tiny ones everywhere.
jordan holmes
Oh, a hundred of the tiny ones.
See, I imagine now he's got a whole...
Like Roger Federer with tennis rackets.
He's got them lined up and he's like, oh, this one is for the high-tension things, the big bullhorn.
unidentified
This one displeases me.
jordan holmes
News radio.
dan friesen
No, I imagine...
Here's what I imagine, quite honestly.
jordan holmes
What do you imagine?
You imagine they're hit everywhere?
dan friesen
Yes, first of all, that.
jordan holmes
There's one in the glove box.
dan friesen
One in the...
The sun visor in the car.
He pulls that down.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Bullhorn falls out.
jordan holmes
Of course.
dan friesen
The image that I had was he opens his passenger door and like 50 pounds falling out.
That was the image that I had.
unidentified
How about that?
dan friesen
He's got a bunch of tiny ass bullhorns.
jordan holmes
I pitch you this.
It's like in the movies, you know, where the guy's got the gun.
He's sitting behind the desk and underneath the desk, Alex pulls out the bullhorn that he's got taped to the desk.
Fights back.
dan friesen
Here's the scene I'm writing.
Okay.
So, like, if we're doing, like, an office, the office kind of thing, but it's about Alex's workplace, he's like, hey, Rob, do I got to go out and wife got talking to out of Barden Springs, got to go bullhorn him.
Bring me Tyranny Crusher.
And then Rob's like, well, you know, we've had to cut expenses around here.
This is all we've got.
What?
I can't work with this.
This is a tiny little bullhorn.
Alex, you can make it work.
jordan holmes
And then David Knight mugs to the camera.
dan friesen
And then it's done, Alex is all sweaty, and he's like, I wish I had a bigger bullhorn.
unidentified
Oh man, he's in everything now.
jordan holmes
He's in news radio, he's in The Office, and he's in Curb Your Enthusiasm all at the same time.
dan friesen
Nothing of those shows is funnier to me.
Then Alex with that tiny bullhorn.
Why would you carry a tiny bullhorn?
jordan holmes
I don't understand it, Dan.
dan friesen
I don't know.
I wish that he would stop imagining that his petty grievances had importance outside of himself.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that would be smart.
dan friesen
Well, we should wrap this up, Jordan, but I just heard some thunder.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
You got an interesting...
jordan holmes
It's going to be a good walk home.
dan friesen
I wish you the best with that.
jordan holmes
Thanks, buddy.
dan friesen
And if you need a ride, you should call 1-773-TAC-GUYES.
jordan holmes
Get out of here!
Tat guys.
dan friesen
Taxi service.
jordan holmes
Tat guys.
dan friesen
Tat guys taxis.
jordan holmes
Tat guys taxis.
dan friesen
No, don't do that.
We'll be back, but until then, Jordan, we have a website.
jordan holmes
We do have a website.
It's knowledgefight.com.
dan friesen
Yep, we're also on Twitter.
jordan holmes
We are on Twitter.
It's at knowledgefight.
Now go to bed, Jordan.
dan friesen
Yep, we're also on Facebook.
jordan holmes
We are on Facebook.
You tell us, right?
iTunes, and if you could, please find a local charity or bail fund in your area to help out with people doing God's work.
dan friesen
Yep, we'll be back, but until then, I'm Neo, I'm Leo, I'm DZX Clark, I'm Daryl Rundus.
I'm Alex's tiny bullhorn.
alex jones
Andy in Kansas, you're on the air.
Thanks for holding.
unidentified
Hello, Alex.
I'm a first-time caller.
I'm a huge fan.
I love your work.
