Jordan Holmes and Dan Friesen dissect Alex Jones’ September 9–10, 2020 broadcasts, mocking his COVID-19 denial (Sweden’s 50-person gathering bans), election fraud claims (Zuckerberg’s alleged power grab, Georgia’s absentee ballot confusion), and hyperbolic dollar collapse warnings. Woodward’s tapes on Trump downplaying airborne COVID-19 are dismissed as "mostly lies" by Jones’ guests—Roger Stone and Steve Pieczenik—who instead push fringe theories like a CIA coup or 9/11 foreknowledge, undermining credibility. Jones’ financial struggles and trivial helicopter antics (Lake Travis rally) highlight his pattern of sensationalism over substance, revealing a media ecosystem built on conspiracy rather than fact.

jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Hey, everybody.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Welcome back to Knowledge Fight.
		Hey, everybody.
		I just talked through the bullhorn.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Oh, man.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That bit almost fucking killed.
		It almost worked.
		You really almost had it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I bungled it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You fucking bailed.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You could have survived it if you'd have just kept it going.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Hey, everybody, welcome back to Knowledge Fight.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I'm Dan.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I'm Jordan.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Wonderful, dude.
unidentified		Like to sit around, drink knowledge of beverages and talk and talk a little bit.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I just, yeah.
		It's tough.
		It's tougher than you think.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's hard to talk through a bit.
unidentified		That's why.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I think the problem is it's very small.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		I don't quite know where to put your mouth.
		It's also hard to hear through the headphones.
		All right, bullhorn segment over.
		This podcast where I like to sit around, drink knowledge of beverages, and talk a little bit about Alex.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Indeed it is, Dan.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And how good he is at using a tiny bullhorn, apparently.
unidentified		He's better than you.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		We have just, in real time, proven his worth.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He's got a talent for bullhorns.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I hate that we said.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		No one's ever said no.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I hate that we set out to make fun of him.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And in the end, all we have done is demonstrate his value and what he brings to the marketplace.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You know, it is interesting.
		It's a niche.
		It is a niche.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Quite.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Not many people fill that niche of being master bullhorners.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		But, you know?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Hey, everybody's got to go.
unidentified		Got to give it up to Alex when he's got a scale.
unidentified		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Absolutely.
		Dan!
		Jordan.
		Quick question.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Real loud that time.
unidentified		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Sorry about that.
		Okay.
		I was trying to talk through the bullhorn.
unidentified		Okay.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I'm just loud.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		What's your bright spot today?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, Jordan, I mean, it's a lot of plant stuff in my life these days.
		Indeed.
		I would say that my plant-related bright spot, plant-watching segment here, is that so I've got a number of things going in various stages of pretty good progress.
		Sure.
		Not broccoli.
		The cucumbers.
		Cucumbers are killing it.
		And the peppercinis are, in particular, doing quite well.
unidentified		Indeed.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But the thing that I'm really, really liking right now that I'm feeling just so great about is the fact that I finally got some quinoa to grow into viable little plants.
		I had killed at least three rounds of trying to grow seedlings of quinoa up there.
		I'm still not 100% sure what I did wrong with those other times, but this time I've got three plants that are pretty well established up there.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's not always about you.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Maybe the quinoa just didn't want to be here.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It could have been.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It could have been.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You got to make everything about you all the time.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It doesn't have to be about you.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, I mean, sure, fine.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Maybe the seeds were predestined to not work out or something.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		They had no interest in you.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, but it's a big relief.
		I thought I was just sort of destined to keep doing it over and over again.
		God, what am I doing wrong?
		And then this round, it's just, it's nice.
		It feels like progress.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, that's very nice.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's very nice.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		How about you?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		My bright spot was: I had the opportunity to tell my partner about the St. Crispin's Day speech.
unidentified		Oh.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		She had never heard it before.
		She didn't know anything about it.
		So I was trying to get her inspired to go to work and make it through the day.
		So I start going into the St. Crispin's Day speech and she's blown away.
		And I'm like, listen, the St. Crispin's Day speech is the only speech that will make you run through a fucking brick wall, even though you don't understand a word of what's being said.
		It's incredible.
		It is the original fucking clear eyes full hearts can't lose of fucking drama.
		And I played her the Lawrence Olivier bit, and she lost her mind.
		She was like, I don't even like this, but I want to run through a brick wall.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's how I feel about Dusty Rhodes, Hardtime Pro.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		See, now there you go.
		Yeah.
		And that wouldn't exist if it weren't for the St. Crispin's Day speech, Dan.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I would say it's the other way around.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Time travel Randy Kramer.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It also gave me a chance to talk about my favorite conspiracy theory.
		Which we've been asked before: are there any conspiracy theories you believe, or what's your favorite conspiracy theory?
		And I've always left this one out because I forget about it.
		But my favorite conspiracy theory is the Shakespeare is a woman conspiracy theory.
		Sure.
		He absolutely is not.
		It's a him.
		Everybody knows it's 100% true, it's him.
		But that's my favorite one to entertain.
		I'm like, how many people have to lie?
		And was she secretly a princess?
unidentified		And she was writing like that and they couldn't put her name out.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Amazing.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But what about the theory that Shakespeare was a bunch of different people?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That one's also bullshit.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Are you sure?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, Shakespeare is actually Shakespeare.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It wasn't Marlowe.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		No, it wasn't Christopher Marlowe.
		It wasn't what's his dumb fuck, Francis Bacon.
		It wasn't none of these guys.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Was he a spy?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Shakespeare was not a spy.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Was he in love?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He was in love.
unidentified		Okay.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's true.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, that is a fine conspiracy.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He had a very difficult marriage, though.
unidentified		Oh.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Is that right?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That is true.
unidentified		Okay.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		A difficult dog.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I thought that historical Shakespeare was a much more open question, but then again, I will grant I have never looked into it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Maybe one of the most studied individuals in the history of all of literature.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		And you think people would just let that be an open question?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I thought that there just wasn't a lot of primary sourcing on it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Wow, tons.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		All right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		This goes to show how you can just sort of have a vague notion of something if you don't look into it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You're just like, ah, that sounds probably true.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So speaking of conspiracies, we were a little bit of assholes on this one.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		We forgot to mention and thank the Cults, Cryptids, and Conspiracies podcast.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, shit, we forgot.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Thank you for having us on as a guest.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Last week, we were on their old podcast.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It was a wonderful time.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		They were delightful.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I want to thank Chelsea and Christina for having us on there.
		It was a lot of fun to talk to them about Alex.
		And I, as always, feel very self-conscious that I just rambled about various Alex-related nonsenses.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		See, I never feel self-conscious because I am who I am.
		Scream and annoy people.
		That's it.
		That's what I got.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So if you all want to enjoy that, check them out.
		You can find them at C3Podcast, and that takes you to links.
		All you need to find them.
		So thanks again for having us on.
		Yes, thank you very much.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		We enjoyed it immensely.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, for sure.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And we're bad at any kind of engagement on social media or knowing when things happen.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Definitely not.
		Nope.
		And messages.
		You guys promote answers.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Oh, God.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Do we never share links about our own show?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I'm the worst.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		We're bad at this.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So, Jordan, today we've got an interesting episode to go over.
		We're going to be talking about the period of September 9th and 10th, 2020.
		I'm Dan.
		This is 2020.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, God damn it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I had sort of planned to do a little bit of a more longer scale or like the beginning of the week, but everything just kept happening.
		And like Bob Woodward came out of the woodwork.
		We both put our fingers up.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Pointing at each other to see who's going to break first.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Who's going to do it?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Who's going to attack?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Who's going to go wrong?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's just too much.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I was like, okay, we got to look as close to present as possible.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Got to be focused.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So we're going to take a look at this and see how Alex is dealing with the fires on the West Coast.
unidentified		Sure.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		We're going to learn about Trump's tapes coming out.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		P-tape.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Not the P-tape.
		So, yeah, we'll get down to business on that.
		But before we do, you got to take a moment to say thank you to some folks who have signed up and are supporting the show.
		So first, Benjamin B., thank you so much.

jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Thanks, Atticus.

		We appreciate that very much.
		So Nate Kay, thank you so much.
		You're now a technocrat.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		I'm a policy wonk.
		Crikey, Mate, that's fantastic.
		Have yourself a burden.
		How's your 401k doing, bro?
		We got to go full-tailed buggy on this, Watson, all right?
		Let's just get down to business.
		We ain't making that money off that heroin.
		Why are you pimps so good?
		My neck is freakishly large.
		I declare info war on you.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Thank you so much, Nate.
unidentified		Yes.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		If you're out there listening and thinking, hey, I enjoy this show.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I'd like to support with these gents, you can do that by going to our website, knowledgefright.com, clicking the button that says support the show.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Indeed, you can.
		Or you could spend years working on a relative play.
		Think about who's involved there.
		Think about all the characters necessary.
		Take all of that creative energy, turn it into generosity, give it to the world, or more specifically, a local bear fund or charity, Dan.
		That's what I'm doing.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		A bear fund.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Bear fund.
unidentified		God damn it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		This is what happens when we record this.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		We may need a bear fund.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I would like a bear fund.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
		So, Jordan, we're going to start things off here on the 9th.
		And it's interesting.
		Alex is talking about red state, blue state issues.
		And he reveals what he means when he says red states.
		And what he means when he says blue state.
		It's very interesting.
		It's not Democrat and Republican, or kind of is, but also means something else entirely.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		It's being rolled out in blue cities and blue states.
		And I use that term nationwide and worldwide now because they don't call it red-blue.
		Whether you're pro-human, you're red.
		You're anti-human, you know, you're blue.
		I guess blue-blood globalist gamelon, whatever you want to call it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So Alex has taken the red and blue of the Democrat and Republican and used it to extend to.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Worldwide.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Pro-human is red.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		All right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Anti-human blue blood is blue.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Okay, are there regions within other, like, how about Chile?
unidentified		Is all of Chile like a blue state?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't know.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		red state are there smaller does he think every country has states i I don't think Alex could really break down state by state or nation by nation.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Sure.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He could tell you that Brazil is red.
		Wow.
		He could tell you that much.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I think Brazil is purple right now.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, it's strange because those terms already mean something.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He's just.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I would like him to have that wacko video from the Animaniacs where he's singing the country song.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I would like Alex right next to that juxtapose with just red, blue, blue, red, blue, blue, blue, blah, blue.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Everyone hates humans.
		So he's talking there about rolling out of all this stuff.
		Of course, it's about COVID-19 and the public health measures that are actually secretly about taking over the world.
		Sure.
		And it turns out that, like him, and we responded one way, some other countries did something different.
		And this is just nonsense.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Meanwhile, in Sweden, they did absolutely nothing.
		And now they're saying, actually, COVID didn't exist.
		And we have record-low deaths from pneumonia.
		Just doesn't exist, basically.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That smug tone right there at the end doesn't exist, basically.
		Sure.
		I can't even do an impression of it, but that tone there, that condescending fuck tone.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Hate that so much.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Basically.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Basically.
		It basically is all bullshit.
		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's very annoying.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Undeserved.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Especially for somebody who is 100% wrong.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		To be treated so condescendingly.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Like, oh, basically, there's no germ theory.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, idiot.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So this is a common right-wing media lie saying that Sweden didn't do anything to mitigate damage done by the coronavirus, and they got along just fine.
		It's essentially an argument against our public health measures using an imaginary version of what a completely different country did as support.
		The first important point is that Sweden did not do nothing.
		For instance, they banned gatherings of more than 50 people.
		They put restrictions on visits to care homes and they restricted bar service at restaurants.
		But many have said that this approach was not nearly enough.
		And some of the stats really bear that out.
		A July article in the BBC points out that over 5,500 people had died from COVID-19 in Sweden, which gave it, quote, one of the highest death rates relative to population size in Europe.
		A CBS News article from July points out that the death rate in Sweden is 30% higher than in the United States when the data is adjusted for population size.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		They didn't do anything and it worked out fine.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		The strategy that Sweden used would be wrong to call a total success, given that tons of people died.
		And there's no evidence that the ultimate goal has been achieved.
		The presumptive goals were to reach herd immunity, which has not been done, and to protect the economy, which also has not necessarily happened as one might have designed it to.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's crazy how bad ideas that go against the ideas of people who have studied this their entire lives don't work out.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's like it happens every time, Dan.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, but one factor that's made the situation there in Sweden not nearly as bad as it could be is that the population, by and large, is willing to voluntarily accept protective measures.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So, like, if individuals there had acted like Alex and his anti-mask weirdo friends, there's a pretty good chance that could be a complete nightmare.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Nobody stormed the state house with guns, being like, no, we'll never wear masks.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That didn't happen in Sweden, I assume, right?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Are they a blue state or a red state?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Probably blue.
		Okay.
		According to Alex.
		Okay.
		So, yeah, he has this notion that Sweden did nothing, and it's all just.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		What?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		What are you saying?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's easy to lie about things.
unidentified		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So Alex gets to talking about his fears and his paranoias about the coming election.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Sure.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And I'll tell you this: Mark Zuckerberg may or may not become president.
		No, he's in charge of telling us what's going to happen, apparently, or something.
		But we do find out who's going to become president.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		And Zuckerberg says that it'll be days or even weeks.
		And once you accept weeks of a delayed election, it'll be months.
		And on January 20th, if the president and vice president have not been seated with the electors, then guess who becomes the president?
		The 46th president?
unidentified		Nancy, the crookkeeper, Paulosi.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		And then if she steps down, do you know who comes next?
unidentified		Hillary.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Come on.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Michelle?
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		So.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He doesn't say.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Doesn't say what you mean.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He just makes those noises.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You can't just make those noises.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Apparently, you can.
		So Pelosi would only become president based on her currently being the Speaker of the House, but there's no guarantee that she will still be Speaker of the House after the November election.
		She has a general election against Shaheed Buttar on November 3rd.
		And although she has a good chance of winning that, there is a chance that she won't be in office to become president in the scenario Alex is imagining.
		If Pelosi lost, it's not like Batar would just automatically become the Speaker, though.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		No, you dethrone the person.
unidentified		No, no, no.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		If you kill the king, you become the king.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's how it works.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's not like whoever's in California's 12th district just gets to be speaker.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That'd be a weird rule.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, there would be another Democrat representative who would be chosen to be speaker, but that's also uncertain.
		The Democrats have a fair majority in the House, but that's not promised.
		And though it's unlikely, the GOP could win back the House, and then they'd get to choose the Speaker, and we'd fuck around and end up with President Jim Jordan or President Matt Gates.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah, yeah.
		Yeah, it'd be, yeah, yeah.
		No, I don't know.
		There's two choices, and it's all nightmares.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Alex is painting a scenario to imply that Pelosi would choose Hillary as her VP, then step down and make Hillary president.
		This is just about the most unlikely turn of events imaginable, but it really gets under the audience's skin.
		So this is what he always chooses to portray as the globalists' evil plan because it works.
		Pisses off the audience.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Damn it, I would revolt if Hillary became president.
		If Nancy Pelosi was like, ha ha, surprise, it's Hillary.
		Like, that's a huge fuck off.
		I'm done.
unidentified		I'm out.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Nah, no, no, no.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That would be late WCW wrestling picking.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Totally.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That would be.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That would be.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Hillary comes in with a fucking chair and hits Nestle Pelosi in the head.
unidentified		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I'm the president now.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, it would be a little much in terms of convoluted.
		Like, we've lost the thread.
		Yeah, you're going to get it.
		It's Russo-ass booking.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		We've got to stop.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Guys, so yeah, I don't know how this one's going to fly.
		So Alex is, you know, he's dancing around, hitting some news stories, skimming some headlines as he does.
		This is what Alex calls like covering the news.
unidentified		Okay.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Governor Noam rejects report that Sturgis Rally led to hundreds of thousands of COVID cases is fiction.
		Yes, it is.
		Trump campaign crowd appeared to violate North Carolina mask order.
		Good.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's great.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Coverage of the news.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		Reads a headline.
		He's like, you bet.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Noam says it's bullshit.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Damn right.
unidentified		Hell yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		They didn't wear masks.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Better believe it.
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		All right.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Next story.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		You know what I'm going to do?
		I'm going to pull up Politico here, and I'm going to cover the news.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		All right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Here we go.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Let's see what you got.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		What's your news?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
		You know, we had some deep analysis here.
		Okay.
		Federal judge blocks Trump census order on undocumented immigrants.
unidentified		Fuck yeah.
		We shouldn't have done that.
		Oh, Nelly.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		All right, next story.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Ukraine gas company to add Rick Perry to its board.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		A wooga.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Wait, what?
unidentified		I don't know.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That sounds wrong.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Just cold reading headlines.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Just cold reading that headline made me frustrated.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		White House moves to curb policing of corporate misbehavior.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's right.
		That's what they did.
		All right.
		Did we do it?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't know if anybody has any better understanding of those stories or anything now.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I feel like we just wasted a couple minutes.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Nah, we did great.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Great.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You wouldn't have known about Rick Perry being invited to join a Ukraine oil company.
		I still don't.
		That's fair.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's true.
		Did that actually happen?
		I don't think you can tell that from the headlines.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't know.
		Look, that was as informative as any news roundup on Alex's show, and I don't even know what those stories were.
		That's fair.
		There's a lot of indications of Alex leaning in on this episode toward kind of intense, violent talk, you know.
		Sure.
		But it's all just about how, you know, he constantly has this, like, you'll know when the time is right.
		Right.
		You'll know.
		Everything will be, you know, they're trying to go hot.
		All this stuff.
unidentified		Sure.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And like, you listen to a clip like this, and you're like, you can't be saying it's some eventual time.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Like, this has to be when the time is.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		I'm going to get into the pre-planning for the martial law, destabilization, collapse of the stock market, race war, the execution of the beta test.
		Then the white papers saying they were going to go operational three months ago.
		Now they're going operational, and we're now in the operation.
		It's now been launched.
		And it's official, and they're doing it.
		Just like they loaded up a train full of TNT and started it towards a town, and it's going to just blow up when it hits the town.
		I mean, it's coming down the tracks.
		It's only going 100 miles an hour and it's coming right at us.
		Wow.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Wow, indeed.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Okay, so you'll know when the time is right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		There's a train coming to your town with TNT 100 miles an hour.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		The plan is operational.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Sure.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		So, like, later then?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I guess.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		So, how many trains do you have to get hit by before it's time?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, I know that Alex isn't big on the whole notion of absorbing the first hit in terms of nuclear warfare and such.
		Yeah, I don't know when you're talking metaphorical trains.
		But you understand, like, the point that I'm making isn't so much that Alex is directly saying you got to go shoot people or anything like that, but the disjointed nature of this rhetoric, the almost self-contradictory hold off.
		Oh, wait, there's a train full of TNT coming to your town.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		The plan is operational right now.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Like, it leaves the audience in a state of complete like, if you listened to this and you thought Alex was telling you it's time to go kill some people, you would be justified.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Like, you could make a pretty solid argument from Alex's words that that was the message he was trying to drive to.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Absolutely.
		If on Monday you say, these are the conditions that we know, and when these conditions happen, you have to go kill people, and then you stop there and say, you'll know when it's time.
		And then on Tuesday, you say, the operation has started.
		They're coming to kill us.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		With a train full of TNT 100 miles an hour.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's like a two-day-old split infinitive.
		You're still saying now is the time just because you're waiting a day in between.
		It doesn't count.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, it's really, really bad to do that to the audience.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, that's not good.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So, Alex, you know, I mean, I think probably one of the biggest stories of the week, the last week and a half, 10 days, Joe Rogan went to Spotify, my man.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yes, I've heard that was the biggest story that I've read so far this year.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And when he went, certain episodes were not included in the jump to Spotify.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, did they get rid of all those Duncan Trussell ones?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Nope.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		A lot of people didn't like those.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He gets a little out there.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Duncan's hippie ass.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		His hippie ass is still there.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He's still there.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
		And that's great.
		Alex, out.
		Milo, out.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Why?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Sargon of Akkad, out.
		Who could have guessed?
		Dave Seaman, out.
		Yeah, so, I mean, like, you know, a lot of people made a big deal out of this.
		So they're like, yeah.
		But, I mean, it kind of makes total sense.
		And if you're Joe Rogan and Spotify's like, I'll give you $100 million.
		You just got to take down these assholes episodes.
		Fuck yes.
unidentified		Oh, yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't care.
unidentified		Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Oh, wait.
		Oh, no.
		I can't have Alex Jones episode.
		I've got to take those off the Spotify archive.
		Oh, please censor me for $100 million.
		I don't give a shit.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		There are things that if they were trying to censor you, I would hope that no matter what level of money you receive, you would fight back and fight against it.
		If they're censoring your Alex Jones episode, you're like, I like $100 million.
		Fuck Alex.
		Alex is a piece of shit.
		He said he was going to gut me.
		I'm going to get his shit off of here.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, that was when he was being a sneaky snake.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Joe was being a sneaky snake and he was working for the globalists.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Don't blame the gut-y here.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Don't blame the gut earth.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Sneaky snake working for the globalists.
		You know it.
		That's fair.
		He knew it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He did know it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Alex started talking about Rogan's kids on the podcast.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That was gross.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, that's really fucked up.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So, anyway, it's very clear to the external observer that what's going on is that Joe got a really, really good deal.
unidentified		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That he doesn't have to worry about sponsorships.
		He doesn't have to worry about any of that shit.
		Never.
		Guaranteed money for the rest of his career.
		Totally.
		Take that money and fucking talk to your weirdo comedy friends.
unidentified		Bye.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Bye, Alex.
		Bye forever.
		Oh, sorry.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But it turns out he, because he is in Austin also, and he's probably going to run into Alex at the Lubies or wherever.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Sure.
		Sure.
		Not anymore, Dan.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, that's true.
		Lubies is shuttering its doors.
		We'll miss you, Lubies.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Bye, Lubies.
		Those old ladies are never going to eat for free again.
		Nope.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Alex will not be able to pay for sad people's meals in the future.
		But I think he knows that he can't not talk to Alex ever.
		Sure.
		So he's given Alex a line of bullshit.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		And I told you that Joe was debating which 100 episodes he was going to keep on YouTube under their deal, which he was going to put on Spotify because they can't be both places.
		Well, I got word yesterday, I guess Spotify's figuring out how much they need to be on YouTube and have content both places because that will just promote over to Spotify.
		I thought it was a very dumb idea to get rid of all those episodes.
		Oh, so now my episodes will be on both platforms.
		So seeing how that works.
		There was a big debate going on with him about what was the best to do.
		It's free on Spotify, but they have like a gold member deal.
		And so they're just figuring it out.
		It was not a censorship issue.
		I told you, I called up Joe, had a 30-minute conversation with him last week, and I told you the truth.
		It's just that Joe said, whatever the most controversial and whatever the highest views are, let me review a list.
		So Spotify kind of held back some of the highest views, but also some of it they thought was controversial.
		Probably kind of hoping Joe didn't pay attention, and then that didn't go over there.
		But then that blew up.
		So there was some truth that it was censorship, but Joe's in control, so it stopped.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I love the idea that within that minute, Alex was like, I'm not being censored.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, there was censorship going on.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I mean, yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		There's a little censorship going on.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I have a Spotify premium account, and those episodes aren't.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, they're not on there?
		Oh, they're not behind the little paywall?
		Oh.
		Oh, man.
		I have heard that so many, like that very conversation from a comic who's been banned from a show.
		Yeah.
		No, no, no, no.
		They're going to get me back on CYSK for sure.
		It's just like, I'm not allowed to go back on for a little while.
		I just don't want to overbook people.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		They said it's too controversial that I peed in a glass on stage.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Exactly.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But look, sometimes you need controversies.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Sometimes you need people who are going to push the envelope, but you can't book them every five years.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		The envelope's got to be stayed.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's got to be every six years.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's why I haven't been on it all.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, totally.
		I've heard that nonsense before.
		Get out of here.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Oh, God.
		It's great.
		I love this.
		This is Alex realizing that you've been let down easy, buddy.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You've been let down easy.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So it turns out that Alex believes that it became a stock issue.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		All right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Spotify stock might have been in trouble if they allowed Alex's Rogan episodes on or something.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That sounds right.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Joe had said, I want you to be one of my first guests when I get to Austin.
		And then that became a huge national issue and was a stock issue and all the rest of it.
		But Joe will be here soon, and I will be with him soon.
		I'm going to leave it at that because it's really uncanny that his office will be right on the street from me.
		So it's just, it's weird.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It is weird.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It is weird.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's not that weird.
		No.
		Like you have a rental office space.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's a whole little mall area.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It makes sense that Rogan would find something commercially available.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Sure.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I would say you probably might see Joe when he comes to see you.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		You're not going to be on the show, buddy.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Maybe.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I mean, if he's still putting some episodes out just on YouTube, then I could see that.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		YouTube doesn't allow Alex on there.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, but they allow Rogan to have Alex on.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Really?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I mean, those episodes are still on YouTube.
unidentified		Really?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah, definitely.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I'm not a big of it.
unidentified		I suck.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And other things that have had Alex on as guests, like Patrick Bett David, his interview with Alex isn't gone.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Bananas.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, but I don't know.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Obviously, I don't know the intricacies of this Spotify deal, but I would guess, based on the fact that Alex's episodes did not make the migration, it seems to imply that, oh, and if it was a stock issue.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It was a stock issue.
		Their stock would have gone down.
		If you have Alex on the Joe Rogan podcast, the marketing stand, there's Black Tuesday, and then there's the day Alex is allowed on Spotify.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I would assume that if Alex wants to do a podcast with Joe, it's going to be in the Infor studio, and it's not going to be the Rogan experience.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, that sounds right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So Alex gets off this topic, although he does talk about it for a while.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And he starts ranting about what it's going to be like when the death of the dollar comes.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		They're going to have 10, 20 years of depression and then buy it all up and break our will, and then they'll turn America back on later and have it be a threat to China and have a bipolar world again.
		But right now, they want to have China take over and have a big run, probably for 50 years.
		And so, folks, I start thinking about what the death of the dollar would look like.
		We're talking great depression, but 10 times worse.
		And we're talking war on the streets.
		And so I'll talk about that coming up.
		Speaking of the devil, I don't want to exaggerate, but let's put up the name of the sale right now for Tim Euros, please.
		This headline is not an exaggeration.
		Save Infowars, save the Republic, save yourself.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Speaking of the devil, I got to sell you something.
unidentified		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		So we can fight the literal devil.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Oh, the death of the dollar is coming and everything is going to be so terrible.
unidentified		So use those dollars to buy pills.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You won't need them later.
		Dollar's going to die.
		You better use them now.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So Alex needs your money immediately.
		And he rambles quite a bit on this episode about going out of business in the very near future.
		And as is my new tradition, I refuse to take the bait.
		I'm not going to take the bait, Alex.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		I literally have agonized over this last few weeks, but I'll just tell you.
		We have everything we have in stock.
		A lot of it we can't even reorder.
		Everything's breaking down.
		The supply chain's breaking down.
		Everything's falling apart.
		We're under massive Chinese government hack attack right now.
		Both sides.
		They're secure, but it slows them down.
		Costs us tons of money to fight it.
		This is a real war.
		So if you ever wanted an InfoWars t-shirt, or you ever wanted to get an Alexa Pier Breeze, or you ever wanted to buy some of the supplements to see how they are and support us, now's the time, folks.
		You don't want to wait.
		This is sudden death overtime, Super Bowl, but for the whole future, everybody.
		And with all their strategic attacks and things that are going on, I need to get fuel in the gas tank.
		Let's say the fuel tank is on a tenth of a tank, and I've got to go 100 miles.
		I've got enough gas to go 50 miles.
		Okay?
		So there's a lot of things I can do.
		I have to make decisions.
		And I've seen the big support last week, big support this week.
		That buys us the extra support we just got, bought us maybe in my gas tank another three weeks.
		I need to sell everything.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I am not taking the bait, Alex.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Nope.
		Nope.
		And I'm definitely not dealing with a barrage of similes like that ever again.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Is the master of metaphor?
		He knows how to really just paint a word picture of it's like a gas tank that's one-tenth full.
		I got to go 100 miles, but I can only go 50 miles.
unidentified		It's like I've got an empty stomach, but I'm hungry and I only have one donut hole.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		So you guys got to give me more donut holes, otherwise, my stomach is going to be empty.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Makes total sense.
unidentified		Yeah, it makes so it's bad, man.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		So I'm probably just going to say we're selling out everything and then sell it at full price and then hope we have enough money to buy stuff into the future or go back to an advertising model or donations model which people don't respond to.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		I don't know.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I wonder why.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		I'm going to save myself because if Trump loses and they're going to put us in a depression anyway, it's just going to be so hellish.
		We're all going to enjoy it together.
		I mean, I feel sorry for everybody, man.
		I tried my best.
		You know what I mean?
		But I mean, it's bad.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's bad.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		This feels almost exactly the same as we've been here before.
		I think it was December, right?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		When it was almost exactly like this.
		I probably can't order more stock.
		But now, there's two possibilities because I hadn't heard that kind of shit before December.
		So it's possible that Alex has just had to escalate to new levels of I need you to support the, or it's possible that that was kind of accurate then and he got enough to skate by and now he's back in the same hole that he was in before.
		I don't know, but again, I'm not taking the bait.
		But it bears mentioning that this is going on again.
		It's happening again to a level that is, I would call, overwhelming.
		If you listen to his episode, it's like, wow, this is a lot.
		Yeah, this is happening over and over and over again.
		So Alex gets into a little bit of etymology here.
		We know that a lot of his guests don't know how words work.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		No, that's definitely true.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And it turns out that he believes them probably because he just doesn't understand words either.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		It's like in that movie Elysium where she says, you know, you'll be lucky if you don't hang for this.
		And he goes, hang, we do the hanging.
		That's all that gives orders.
		Like Tony Montana says is balls.
		And this isn't about bragging.
		It's about you knowing how powerful you are.
		You are just as important as anybody in the government, anybody at the New York Times, anybody at the Financial Times of London, anybody at the FBI.
		You're a sovereign person that's not a slave.
		You're a good person.
unidentified		Uh-oh.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		And InfoWars is directly organic out of the dirt.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Like a lily out of the Nile mud.
unidentified		Oh, boy.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		You are Moses.
		That's what Moses is after.
		Egyptian word for lily in the mud.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's not true.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I just love the confidence of that.
		Yeah, just such a, just like any object.
		Just, hey, that's a pen.
		Do you know where the word pen comes from?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Where's that?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It comes from the Sumerian for pen.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Oh, cool.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, it's great.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I know all about it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, it's because the serpent loves word games.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's where Jesus comes from.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So, yeah, I would say that there's a real interesting difference between being like, hey, you're just as valid as anybody who writes for the New York Times or anybody in the FBI.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		They're just a person like you.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Just a person.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And there is some truth to that on just like being a human.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's why you should arrest an FBI agent if you don't like them.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, there's different things that people in different positions are capable of doing.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That is true.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I think if you have a pair of handcuffs, you can arrest people.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You're basically science.
unidentified		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I think that's how that works.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I think that's a functional plan.
		So I also love that Alex opened that with two movie references.
		That is impressive.
		Like within 15 seconds, just two movies.
unidentified		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's Elysium.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's like Tony Montana.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's like Tony Montana.
unidentified		Wow.
unidentified		Absolutely.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So he keeps rambling about he and his boys, the good people.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		They're the ones who do the killing.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		We're on the ground.
		We see what's really going on.
		We're where the crops are grown, where the engines get fixed, where the diapers get changed, where the dinner gets cooked, where the house gets cleaned, where the cuts get stitched, where the fighting gets done and the killing.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You guys are busy.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Just take a break.
		Step into that office.
		This is where the living and the dying happens.
		This is where you come into the world, you go out of the world.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I mean, the living part, fine.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Stop with the killing talk.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Stop with the killing talk.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You're creeping me out.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Man, it just doesn't seem like the good guys are ever described as, we love killing.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		We're the ones who do the killing.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		We do all the killing.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		We're the good guys.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Right?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Generally is at least a suspicious sign.
unidentified		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So, but the thing is, like, you know, hey, look, if we're the ones who are doing the killing, that's fine.
unidentified		Because the other side, they ain't got no soul, baby.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, no.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		They're like running around with hangernades, pulling the pins to blow themselves up, hoping some of the shrapnel hits us.
		I mean, this is followers.
		This is slaves doing this.
		These are pathetic people.
		Don't let Zuckerberg demoralize you.
		He's a pathetic nobody.
		All of them have been chosen because they're so weak and so spiritless.
		They have no God in them.
		Nothing.
		No connection to the father.
		No connection.
		It's all synthetic garbage.
		Mark Zuckerberg's one of the poorest people on earth.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I get it.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		But they know you're rich spiritually.
		That's why they want to make you poor so you don't have money to be free.
		Money is not worship like they worship it because it gives them control.
		Money is a symbol of energy, and I need it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		What?
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Continue the fight.
		So I'm going to tell you right now: 50% off DNA Force Plus.
		Wow.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That was impressive.
unidentified		Yes.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That was impressive.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's amazing.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That really was impressive.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That was a twist.
		Yep.
		There was craft to that.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't know.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It felt more like flailing.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It could have been flailing.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It kind of felt more like somebody who, like, you've seen those videos of people who are skydiving and they somehow survive without.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Sure.
unidentified		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's really what that felt like to me.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That was like, yeah, I don't know.
unidentified		I don't know.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You made it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You landed.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But it was ugly.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I think that was really ugly.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That is, I could see that being a riff that was just going on too long.
		And then he heard himself say money and he was like, money's my out buddy.
		I got stuff to say.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Speaking of money.
		Yeah.
		Yeah.
		And also he said Mark Zuckerberg.
unidentified		Sure.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Remember that.
unidentified		Okay.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Because he knows what his name is.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Is he in the 12?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Which is weird.
		Okay.
		So Alex gets back from break and he's talking about some culture issues.
		And man, this dude could get mad about anything.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		And I haven't even gotten into all the race war news.
		I mean, just one of the craziest parts of the technocracy is the biggest video game sports maker, the video games, came out and they have the game where Colin Kaepernick's the best quarterback in the NFL.
		I mean, he used to, all those games actually went off the real ratings.
		He's not a very good quarterback.
		There's some great black quarterbacks, but he's kind of black, anyways.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yikes.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		What are we doing?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yikes.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		What are we doing?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I mean, leaving the racism aside, man, I can't imagine how angry he was when NBA Jam Tournament Edition put Bill Clinton in the game.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Bill Clinton can't dunk.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		They used to.
		You know what?
		NBA Jam used to be about the ratings.
		It was.
		It was.
		It used to be about the ratings.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Absolutely.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Gary Pateman drilled threes all day.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Absolutely.
unidentified		Bill Clinton?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		No.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		No.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Let me see him do one crossover.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Ronnie Cycley, that's a guy who can dunk.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Bill Clinton, Al Gore, absolutely not.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		What are they doing in the game?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, boy.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Can you imagine if NBA Jam had Bill Clinton in both realistic stats?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Totally.
		See, here's what Alex is missing.
		What he needs to do is stop complaining about adding people to games and start inviting them to add more people to different games.
		Mortal Kombat, why isn't Bill Clinton a playable character?
unidentified		Sure.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's a good question.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That is a great question.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Ask Ed Boone.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Exactly.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		We got to start this.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So, yeah, I don't know.
		Alex seems really bent out of shape about the idea that Colin Kaepernick has good stats in a video game.
		And let me go ahead and respond to this by saying I don't care.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, why not?
		It's a statement of our values, right?
		As a country, to put Colin Kaepernick into a video game?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		This is Alex.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He's still technically a free agent.
		Yeah.
		And he's still in the game.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He's not a bad football player.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		No, he's actually quite good.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He's actually very good at that.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I didn't even look into this to find, like, oh, what are the stats?
		Is Alex exaggerating this?
		Because I can't care.
		I just can't care.
		The fact that Alex cares is embarrassing.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It is a problem.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's embarrassing.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It is a problem.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Oh, world leaders, listen to my show where I complain about black quarterbacks having good stats.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		There are some good black quarterbacks, though.
		This isn't a race thing.
		I don't know a race thing.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But I don't want the ones whose political views I disagree with to have good stats in a video game.
unidentified		You know, a lot of people don't like Don McNabb, but I'll tell you what, he was a good quarterback.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Putin's sitting around.
unidentified		He's like, Alex has very interesting ideas about this video game.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Indeed.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I'll have to talk to my enemy, the literal devil.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yikes.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So Zuckerberg, he appears to be rich, like Alex has already touched on.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		And he is.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He has money, naturally.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But he can only do what his overlords let him do.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Destroy democracy.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He has to ask for permission.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		People like Zuckerberg get told how big a jet he can have and how many houses and what he can buy.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		By J.P. Morgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, and others is a front man.
		He gets told by Bill Gates.
		I mean, Bill Gates has finally gotten the table of the roundtable at the highest levels.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I thought he was in the 12.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		His minion, his trainee, his apprentice is Jeff Zuckerberg.
		Come on over, dude.
		What's up?
		All my earpieces popped up.
		I'm sorry, it doesn't matter.
unidentified		So now it's Jeff Zuckerberg.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I think that was a Bezos Zuckerberg.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He does this a lot.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's really sloppy.
		Yeah.
		I mean, maybe Zuckerberg is told how many houses he can buy by his financial advisors.
		Maybe he has people who tell him, hey, don't waste.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Still don't care.
		If he buys more than one house, I still don't care.
		I still don't care.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Also, we're in this weird sort of Schrodinger's Bill Gates situation where he's a member of the Council of Twelve.
unidentified		Right, right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He's one of the leaders of the world, unless G Edward Griffin is on the show.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Sure.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And he thinks that Bill Gates is a middleman.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Oh, no, it was Skousen.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Skousen was the middleman.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Skausen saying that Bill Gates is a middleman.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		And now Bill Gates is in some kind of limbo where he was a middleman, but now he's finally got his seat at the table.
		But even then, we don't know if the table is the 12s or 12.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I think the table is the 12.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		We might have gotten rid of the 12 entirely.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't know.
		It's a big table.
		So Alex is still mad about Kaepernick.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		The greatest Nazi, if you want to be a real Nazi, a real race-based person wanting race war and wanting racial identity, it's Colin Kaepernick.
		For PR purposes and all of it, he's the greatest Nazi.
		And then talk about black folks.
		He's the greatest so-called black guy that's closest to Hitler.
		Who's closest to Christ?
		I'm not comparing him to Christ.
		I'm saying who's the closest to that?
		It'd be Kanye West.
unidentified		Wow.
unidentified		What?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Wait.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		All right.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Wait, what just happened?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Did I just hear that Colin Kaepernick, a guy who was blackballed for kneeling during the anthem, is actually a Nazi because he was blackballed for kneeling during the anthem.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, closest to a Nazi, you can get.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Alex is sort of ranking black celebrities.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He's kind of arguing that there's an equilibrium of black celebrities.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		There's a continuum, and on one side is Colin Kaepernick, and on the other is closest to Jesus.
unidentified		Right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And that's Kanye Anthony.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		And Kanye West.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		All right.
unidentified		I feel like those aren't the ends of the spectrum.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No, and I don't have anything to say that would like, I don't want to dignify this with any kind of even response.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You know what a thing is.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Nazi book continuum.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		No.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I reject the idea altogether.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I just present this as, huh, this is how Alex's brain works.
unidentified		That's weird.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's a weird thing for a human to think.
unidentified		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So Alex gets into talking about a news story.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		There's an actual story, and it's about voting.
unidentified		And yeah, he's a bit off.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		1,000 people illegally voted twice during primary elections using advanced ballots.
		And I read what the state official over this said.
		He looked into it.
		That was a sampling.
		And they found a thousand.
		Videos up on Infowars.com, Georgia Secretary of State, Brad Raffin Springer, confirmed that at least 1,000 Georgian votes twice in the state's June 9th primary.
		Oh, and guess who they mainly were?
		I think you can guess what party cheats a lot.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yours?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I'm going to go with yours.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		This Georgia primary story is interesting because there is something going on here, but it actually doesn't work out at all for Alex's voter fraud narratives about the presidential election.
		Alex has been arguing against expanding mail-in voting, but he's always made the point that absentee voting is totally cool.
		He has to believe that because Trump says that, and he's nothing if not a follower.
		This is where the Georgia story is a problem.
		All these instances that he's talking about are cases of people who sent in absentee ballots who also showed up on election day to the polls and voted.
		So it has nothing to do with the fears and conspiracies about mail-in vote.
		This story also highlights that people who do this sort of thing get caught.
		The evidence is that they did.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I don't understand.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		What do you mean?
unidentified		Wow.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		The situation here is very unclear because the investigation is still ongoing.
		But there are a couple of benign possibilities here that aren't good, but also aren't really intentional election fraud.
		One possibility is that people sent in absentee ballots and didn't know if they'd been counted, so they thought they should vote in person to be sure, which isn't good, but they also might not have known that that was a crime.
unidentified		Sure.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		The second possibility is brought up in an article in the Atlanta Journal Constitution.
		Quote, voters are allowed to cancel their absentee ballots and then vote at polling places as long as their ballots haven't yet been received by election officials.
		It's unclear whether the voters under investigation attempted to do so.
		So there are possible explanations for this that boil down to bad voter education and poor communication about the process, but not criminal intent.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I've been on Yahoo Answers.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I imagine somebody was told, like, if you feel like you voted wrong, go to the polling place and vote for the other guy to cancel it out.
unidentified		Well, you know, like it's borderline that level of, I get it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, you could have been on Yahoo Answers, or you could have gone to Trump's rally in North Carolina last year where he literally said, quote, so send it in and then see and then vote and see what happens.
		Now you're assured, though, that your very precious and important vote has been counted.
		Trump was explicitly telling his followers to try to vote twice, the very thing that Alex is yelling about some people possibly doing in Georgia.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, exactly.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Also, in the primary, it's Democrats running against Democrats and Republicans against Republicans.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So I'm unclear how this conspiracy is supposed to be working.
unidentified		I don't know.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Don't you get it?
		Because it only happens in the Democratic primary because they're cheating even each other.
		Because blue states don't have souls, Dan.
		And also, I'm going to have to say that Uruguay is a blue state as well.
		I just have to.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So, yeah, I don't understand exactly what the point here is.
		And I also don't really know what all the details are of the actual story in Georgia.
		But I think it's interesting.
		And I think more information will be known eventually.
		But I think it's entirely possible that there was no necessarily attempts to fraudulently vote as much as people didn't know what the deal was.
		And I mean, in this election cycle, you would expect to see increased incidences of that, along with just completely screwed up voting systems.
		People who don't understand, you know, people who are new to absentee ballots, not knowing the process exactly.
		It makes sense that there would be some hiccups.
		And the fact that people are able to catch this means that those checks are also in place.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, if you want to get rid of this type of mail-in fraud ballots or whatever it is, if you want to deal with that type of fraud, I bet if you made Election Day a holiday, made sure that everybody had the education on how to vote, got paper ballots only, and standardized that across the entire country, we wouldn't be in this kind of situation.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Nah, fuck it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Fair enough.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		According to Alex, just fucking just let Trump be in charge.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Just make him king.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I'm bored.
unidentified		Yep.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So for the rest of this episode, an hour of this episode.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		An hour of this episode.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Alex has a buddy of his, Shane Steiner, in.
unidentified		Okay.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Because Shane went down to the old boat parade in Lake Travis.
unidentified		Sure.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And he has some thoughts about it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Shane was in the crash.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, no.
		He was jumping out of a helicopter.
		Okay.
unidentified		All right.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Let's hear him tell the story.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		By the way, my buddy Shane Steiner flew his helicopter around trying some amazing HD footage of the biggest Trump boat rally yet.
		Probably 6,000 boats are saying.
		Like Travis last weekend.
		Word is it's coming up again this Saturday.
		He's coming in studio to talk about that and more and show that HD footage.
		Stay with us.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So yeah, some boats did sink.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		So he's not, that's he's bearing the lead on that one, right?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Well, this was a this was a huge success in his in his mind.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Look.
tommy shane steiner ▲ ● ▼		I heard from people that were out there on the boats that said that was the most fun they've ever had on Lake Travis.
tommy shane steiner ▲ ● ▼		So everybody's out there having a good time.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Everyone's having a good time, man.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I've heard from people that it was not the most fun time they've ever had because they were inside the water under a broke.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, look, man, the news says that.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
tommy shane steiner ▲ ● ▼		I hate to admit this, but I just found out what gaslighting is.
		And it's when your own eyes are telling you something different than you're being told is going on.
		And so that's what that whole day was.
		So when I got home and started reading the articles of all the boats sinking and just the chaos and the they said seven boats all it was all exaggerated.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Well, they had six books.
		I mean, if you get 6,000 boats, something's going to happen, though.
		My God.
tommy shane steiner ▲ ● ▼		Now, I'm not going to say that no boat, but they acted like it was Armadas just going down at the helm.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I love this idea that he's like, oh, I feel so gaslit by the news saying the boat's up.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Now, some boats did sink.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I still don't think you understand what gaslighting is despite the fact that you defined it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's very difficult.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Now, I'm not going to say that no boat sank.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		People are calling it like this Armada.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Now there were 6,000 boats.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No, he's saying that some Armada sunk a bunch of boats.
unidentified		Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And sure, I mean, great.
		The coverage of the event did largely focus on the fact that boats sank.
		But that's because that's the anomaly.
		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Otherwise, it's just a bunch of assholes on boats.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		What makes it newsworthy is a lot of them sunk.
unidentified		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Otherwise, none of us don't have cared.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Don't understand why this is so confusing for Mr. Shane Steiner.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		On your boats.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's fine.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So this is the weirdest hour because it has nothing to do with anything important.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Sure.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It barely has to do with his adventure in Lake Travis.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It mostly has to do with how great having a helicopter is.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That actually sounds fun.
		It's not.
		That sounds fun.
		Having a helicopter, I believe.
		Oh, yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Not listening to this interview.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Bilber makes it sound great.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I assume this guy makes it sound great.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He's like, hey, you know, it's really safe.
		And they say that it's not safe.
		And okay, I don't care.
		I don't care.
		But, you know, apparently there's like commercial or like sort of civilian drones that fly around.
		Sure.
		That can make things more dangerous.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I believe that.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		As Alex and Shane say, talk about in this next clip, they almost got hit by a drone one time.
tommy shane steiner ▲ ● ▼		The drones flying around actually is a risk to other pilots.
		In fact, you and I almost ran into a drone one time.
		We were flying around downtown and big one came right up.
		Yeah, it was eye-level to us, and they kind of went off to the left and we went off to the right, and we just passed each other.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		He did.
		Luckily, he was watching.
		He flew right up in front of us.
tommy shane steiner ▲ ● ▼		He went, yeah.
tommy shane steiner ▲ ● ▼		But still, I mean, if that would have flown into us, that would have been fun.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		That was an Imperial probe droid.
tommy shane steiner ▲ ● ▼		You always got to bring it back to Star Wars.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Well, I mean, not that I'm even into it.
		Aren't you glad Star Wars?
		The whole franchise is bankrupt now because they made it SJW.
tommy shane steiner ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I mean, yeah, it's kind of gone down a in the past five years.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		The Star Wars franchise has brought in approximately $6 billion at the box office.
		If you include Solo and Rogue One, which is way, way more than they cost to make.
		The Force Awakens is the number four highest-grossing film of all time.
		Star Wars is nowhere near bankrupt, but this is the right-wing narrative that they use to make themselves feel like their opposition to diverse casts.
		It seems like it's more universally held than it actually is.
		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, boy.
tommy shane steiner ▲ ● ▼		Oh, Archie.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Shut the fuck up.
		I'm not even really that into it.
		Shut the fuck up.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You know what that moment was there?
		What?
		Alex brings up repeatedly in this interview that he and Shane went to high school together.
		So this is like a guy who's like, oh, you dork.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, this is.
		That's Alex.
		And Alex is getting bullied.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, God.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Shane Steiner is a guy who's like a lot more in shape.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Sure, sure.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He had a hit on the country music charts back in the early 2000s.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So, like, yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Why not?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He has a bit more status than Alex.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He flies around in a helicopter.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		And that, of course, makes Alex turn into.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I'll roll over and let you scratch my belly.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, you always bring back stories.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I'm not even into that story.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I'm not even that into it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I'm not even into Star Wars.
unidentified		Granted, I do impressions of Emperor Palpatine all the fucking time.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And I've come into every show with the Imperial Market.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Well, that's just a great song.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I just think it's a great song.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Not that in it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's just a good song.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I'm not a big fan.
unidentified		Not that in the end.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		No, no, no, no.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's SJW.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		SJW bankrupt nonsense.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Bankrupt Star Wars.
		Billionaire.
		Look, it's sure.
		It's the size of a small economy.
		Damn.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		All three of the last Star Wars movies that came out are in the top 35 movies in terms of box office gross of all time.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Of course they are.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's kind of a big deal.
unidentified		It's huge.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		A lot of people like it.
unidentified		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So now we jump to the 10th because the rest of it is just helicopter talk, and I don't care.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Well, we're going to have to get rid of my new phone number idea.
		1-800 helicopter talk.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's too many letters.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Is that too many letters?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		So on the evening of the 9th, Woodward came out of the woodwork, and a lot of the excerpts of the book started to go around.
		People were talking about, I mean, what do you think was the big news?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Let's see.
		Oh, what was it?
		Trump.
		Trump did.
		Trump said something about some sort of global disease, I think.
		And I'm pretty sure he said that it was a giant hoax and that no one should pay attention to it.
		And he was recorded saying it.
		CNN put out those tapes that he said it was a giant hoax way back, right?
		No.
		No, it's not.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He didn't say that.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I can't even tell what your bit is.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I was being sarcastic.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Because he said that coronavirus was more serious.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And it was airborne.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He said it was airborne.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And he said that he always tries to downplay it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, sure.
		You got to downplay it.
		Yeah.
		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Now, that was what a lot of the media was reporting.
		That was sort of the headline because it's terrifying.
		And what?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Because it makes Trump a premeditated murderer?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		An argument could be made.
unidentified		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And there are fucking tapes that you can hear of Trump literally saying those things.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That was Anthony Atamanik.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's everybody knows that he does the best Trump.
unidentified		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So when I was sitting around looking at the news of this come out, I was like, this is going to be trouble for Alex.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I didn't think it would be.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I kind of figured he'd be able to find some way to, much like, again, the guy jumping out of an airplane.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I figured there was something he was going to be able to do or be like, yeah, you know, Trump was just doing that to play.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, this is all part of his 12th-dimensional chess game.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, Alex went a slightly different direction.
unidentified		The year is 2020, 53 days out.
unidentified		And look at these mainstream headlines.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Bad dog Mattis discussed secret military coup against President Trump while serving in his White House.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Plot to overthrow U.S. government.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Here you can see how there's two different media ecosystems, and they're reporting on the same underlying story with different versions.
		There's a blurb from Bob Woodward's new book that Alex and Zero Hedge have decided to run with and make the main focus, which is General Mattis apparently had a conversation with Dan Coates about how there may come a time when action would need to be taken because Trump was dangerous.
		This can be the lead of the story and the thing that's the most important, and it allows these people to just ignore or dismiss the other elements of the story that, like we talked about, that other outlets are focusing on, which is terrifying.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, you know, it's like the boats.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You know, a lot of people aren't realizing how much fun we had along the way.
unidentified		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Two different media ecosystems, two different realities.
		Except the mainstream press, they also cover the Mattis elements of the story.
		You can find tons of articles about that.
		But I wonder if Alex will also spend some time on the Trump absolutely lied about this virus publicly for political benefit partner.
		Let's see.
		I mean, I don't know.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Will he mention what's his take on it?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, I mean, he does talk a bit more about Woodward's book.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Woodward's book is a lot of lies and a lot of stuff that's true.
		I know it's true.
		I know what isn't because I've studied the whole thing.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Aha.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, boy.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So a lot of it's lies, almost all of its lies.
		But then there's some truth.
		And I will dictate to you what the truth is.
		And then by matter of exclusion, by the process of elimination, you can tell that the things that I'm not talking about, those are lies.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		The thing I keep going back to, which is the big reason that Bob Woodward can go fuck himself forever and fuck him, is those tapes could have come out in what, March?
		I believe it's somewhere around there.
		Dan, we were still in it's over for humanity mode in March.
		If those tapes had come out, the right-wing propaganda narrative would have had to go in a completely different direction.
		It would have.
		There's no other way.
		So Bob Woodward essentially, and it's not coming back.
		There's no way that Bob is going to put this out.
		Just like we just saw with Alec.
		He doesn't put this out, and then the right-wing goes, whoops.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I'm not defending his decision, and I think I tend to agree with you that it's malpractice to have not put this out earlier, especially given the way that things have gone and the consequences that we've seen in the world.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's disgusting.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		The only reason I have any pause here is I haven't heard a reason why he didn't.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And I wonder if there is some reason that I'm not considering.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He's given a reason, and the Washington Post have both given reasons.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		What's that?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		They are not good.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		What's that?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		His reasoning was: well, I needed to do more reporting on it and make sure that I got the whole story right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That seems a little flimsy.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's very flimsy.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't know what goes into that sort of thing, though.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I mean, I'm not, again, I don't see that as a really great excuse.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's not.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But it's also coming from me as someone who's not in that position.
		So I don't know what legal issues there are.
		But that being said, I feel like, you know, especially in a situation like this, you could make an argument that there's a moral imperative that legal consequences be damned.
		Absolutely.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Without question.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It would have changed the right-wing propaganda narrative.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Which has been largely the driver of a large part of what has made this so difficult for our country to they would have had to go in the complete opposite direction where it is over for humanity.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		They would have had to keep going on that route.
		I just blown away.
		It's just fucked up.
		And I mean, here's what it is.
		He recorded Trump saying, I am letting people die for my personal benefit.
		And he held on to that in order to sell books, meaning that Bob Woodward is letting people die for his personal benefit.
		It is the same action, and it's disgusting.
		It really is.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I find it difficult to not hear that as a pretty sensible point of view.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's a pretty big bummer.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, it's a real big bummer.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So anyway, back to our issue here today with Alex.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		The thing you need to know is that all of Bob Woodward's book isn't true.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		But the parts that are true.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Except for the part that Alex wants to be true.
unidentified		Sure.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		So all of Woodward's book is a lie.
		We'll go over that.
		Except for the fact that they were plotting a coup, which is totally illegal and criminal, but now they're lionizing it because they're preparing another one when Trump doesn't accept the fraudulent results when they try to steal the election.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Uh-huh.
		So the only part of this that's true is the part that's useful to me, and everything else is all lies, so just ignore it.
		We won't even really even talk about it.
unidentified		That's mean.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Also, no conversation about the fires in the West.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		None.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		None.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		None that I recall in these episodes.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's fucking a quarter of our country is on fire right now and no talking about it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No, because there's bigger issues.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, okay.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		In what is Mexico today, all the way down into Central and South America, by the collapse of the Mesoamerican society that happened right as Cortez arrived, and they were already collapsed.
		The main source of meat was human flesh of children.
		They had shops down at the bottom of the pyramids with hanging children.
		People came and bought the meat.
		People would routinely eat their own children after they were gutted.
		They'd go buy an arm or a leg.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Uh-huh.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		That's how they can get us to not care about human life.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		That was going on everywhere.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's not a sustainable system in any means.
		Humans are not nearly as nutritious as maybe you'd like to imagine.
		Also, the giving birth for food thing.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's a real fucked up thing to do.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Well, it's also resource-wise.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Sure.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Especially at a time when maybe you don't survive childbirth.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Considering how much you have to eat to bring the childbirth.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		The amount of time it takes, the gestational period.
		Yeah, yeah, it doesn't.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		No, that's a poor economy.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, there's no way you could have a main source of meat.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Maybe you could for like a week, but then it's all over.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I think it would have to be like a 50-50 thing.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Everybody gets to eat one person and then it's over.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Until you've got one person, you know, very dumb.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Eye for an eye leaves out.
unidentified		Everybody's people go down to the store and get an arm.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		See, I thought the way to make people okay with killing people was to dehumanize them and perhaps even say that they didn't have a soul and they have no correct connection to your creator.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's what I thought.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No, that's Americano.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, that's right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yep.
		So, I mean, this blew my mind.
		I didn't realize that.
		Did you know that there are parts of your body called life switches?
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		But of course, the Mill Gates vaccines are linked to turning off a chromosome in the cells that is a life switch.
		It throws a kill switch.
		I just can't make this up.
		Of course, it's a kill switch.
		He wants us to die.
		He really wants you to take this.
		He says it's going to make you really sick.
		You're going to need a lot of these shots.
		Then they're going to manage covering all that up.
		It's all a big sick laboratory test.
		But listen, with what's happening in the supply chain breakdown and all the craziness and China hoarding food and Europe and governments and elites digging into bunkers, you need to get your storable food one to two weeks from delivery now.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		God damn.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		God damn.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		They're going to turn your life switch off.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yep.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Got to get some storable food.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He is banging on all cylinders.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		God damn.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Here's a little bit later.
unidentified		Okay.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		But I'm just telling you, this is the big move.
		The enemy should try a coup.
		They're going to blow up power plants, set nukes off.
		I don't know.
		Anything.
		Race riots, false flags.
		We're in the season of war.
		America is fighting for its life.
		They're going to contest the election.
		This is absolutely horrible.
		The Justice Department's got a bunch of wimps in it.
		They're not in control of anything.
		And we are just sending ducks to authoritarians.
		But I think God will help us.
		With Providence, we'll make it out of this.
		But it's up to you now.
		But get your storable food and products now.
		NinfoWarsore.com while you still can.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Nailed it.
unidentified		They're going to blow up power plants, nuke cities.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I've just read the Bible too many times to think that it's okay for you to be like, I think Jesus is going to get us through it.
		And you need to buy storable food.
		You can't have those back-to-back.
		You can't.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Doesn't seem good.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Jesus was pretty against that idea.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yep.
		So Bob Woodward's book is obviously the main media cycle.
		And Alex's version of it is all about this thing about Mattis.
		And so, like, if I'm going to handle this story, I got to call in my big guns.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Roger Stone, what do you make of the coup plot against America?
		I mean, even Zero Hedge gets it right.
		Mattis wanted to overthrow the U.S. government.
		I mean, that's what this is on Rogers audio earlier.
		Roger, can you hear me?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Don't say the N-word.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		I'm still the phone like I originally wanted, guys, okay?
unidentified		Let's just do that.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Okay, well, Roger, can you hear me?
		He didn't hang up.
		He's on the line, guys.
		He just doesn't have audio.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I'm with you.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Hey, Roger.
unidentified		Oh, boy.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, that was bad.
		I was really praying he wouldn't say something really unsavory.
		So was Alex, I'm sure.
unidentified		Yeah, I believe it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So here's Roger's take on things.
unidentified		Now you have this latest flap with Bob Woodward.
unidentified		Why would Bob Woodward, why would anyone believe anything he says?
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I don't know.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Now, I'm here to not necessarily stand up for Bob Woodward.
		No.
		But I am going to say that maybe Roger Stone is not the best source to call whatever Woodward is being discussed.
		I think there might be a conflict of interests there.
		Who would believe this guy?
		Yeah, he's got to believe this guy.
		You don't want to talk to a guy who has a Nixon tattoo about whether Woodward.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Bob Woodward?
		Why not?
		Why not?
		Why would anybody believe anything that Bob Woodward says?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's like interviewing a guy about Upton Sinclair who has a tattoo of a dirty factory on his back or something.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		What do you think?
		It's all lies.
		It's all lies.
		It's bullshit.
		Come on, they're just trying to take down Goodman.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		There's real comedy in the fact that Roger is like, yeah, all right.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Of all people.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Of all people.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He's who Alex has.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Like, probably, you know.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I don't know if there is a more partisan pro-Nixon person to talk to.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You know, like, I just don't know.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Maybe a family member.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I don't even know about him.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Probably not.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He was a dick to his family.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He was a dick, period.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I think Roger is about as good as you're going to get.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And it does not come up this weird conflict of interest about Watergate.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's awesome.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But, oh, well.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, no.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Come on.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So, Roger yells about how Trump needs to seize all the ballots in Nevada.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Sure.
unidentified		The ballots in Nevada on election night should be seized by federal marshals and taken from the state.
		They are completely corrupted.
		No votes should be counted from the state of Nevada if that turns out to be the provable case.
		We can prove voter fraud in the absentees right now.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So if this is proven, then we should seize all the ballots and we can prove it now.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So that means that Trump should go ahead and seize all the ballots.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He might as well just seize them right now.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yikes.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Have they ever noticed that when they condemn other countries for doing stuff that's anti-democratic, that they're saying that we should do that anti-democratic stuff?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, I mean, you can even take it less abstract than that.
		Alex is about to get engaged in what could be a very difficult election process and covering it, and it might go to the courts.
		Courts might get involved.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Sure.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And he's doing that with the assistance and the expertise of Roger Stone, who was involved in the Brooks brothers situation and the stopping of the recount in Florida in 2000 that led to and precipitated Bush being named president, which Alex thinks is an illegal carrying out of a stealing of an election that Roger Stone was directly involved in.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He helped steal it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So now Alex is his guy is not only coming on to talk about Woodward and not citing his biases.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		And how other people are stealing elections.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He's also going to be making rationalizations and probably engaging in similar behaviors as he did in the 2000 election.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And Alex back then would have said it was stealing an election.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Of course.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And now it's just good stuff.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Totally.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Now, here's the problem with Roger and Alex and all of this stuff.
		It's how they're framing things.
		And we've seen this with Alex constantly.
		And I think that Roger does it a little more clearly.
unidentified		I'd like to have an honest election in which the real winner takes off it.
unidentified		The real winner will not be Joe Biden.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's unimpeachable.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Unimpeachable logic.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I want a fair election where the rightful winner wins and the rival winner cannot be Joe Biden in a fair election.
		By definition, he cannot win a fair election.
		Therefore, any election where Joe Biden wins is not a fair election.
		Trump is the only possible winner.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Therefore, everyone knows that in every fair election, there is a foregone winner, and the election itself is pointless.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		This is such a normal point on Alex's show at this point that if you're listening to it, you've just probably absorbed it as fact.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Like, there's no possible chance that Biden could win in any fair scenario.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Totally.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's dangerous.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's a fucked-up thing.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So Roger has to go.
		And Alex needs another guest.
		Needs another marquee guest.
		And when it's time to talk about potential coups, we got one man.
		That's right.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Steve Chanik is in the mix.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Alex wants to talk about how dangerous it is that Mattis is trying to plan this coup.
steve pieczenik ▲ ● ▼		And here's Steve's response: An attempted coup is really not a very serious problem.
unidentified		Ooh!
		Ooh!
		Whiffed.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I gotta give it up to Steve again.
		I gotta give it up one more time.
		The man takes big swings.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You really expected him to come in and be like, Alex, this is horrible.
		We've got to root everyone out.
		Hey, try to have a coup.
		What are you going to do?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I think he's called for coups so many times now he probably doesn't think it's that big of a deal.
		He calls for a coup every other week.
		Yeah, yeah, he's he's uh he's called for Melania to kick Trump out of office.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's true.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Hey, no big deal.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Hey, listen, I've got some succeeded coups.
		I've had some failed coups.
		It's not that big a deal.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		So Steve, what he believes is that the problem that we see here is that our military is just not going to work.
		It just doesn't work.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It just doesn't work.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Military.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It doesn't work.
unidentified		Oh, damn it.
steve pieczenik ▲ ● ▼		What's happened is our military is not viable.
		We got 2.2 million men in uniform.
		There's no value to it.
		Trump understands that Trump took us out of Syria.
		He took us out of Iraq, Afghanistan.
		Why did he do that?
		For number one, he is very smart.
		He knows we do not win wars.
		They're not effective.
		We do not make money.
		And the bottom line is that we have a far more serious problem in terms of the economy and in terms of getting our growth back.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		I was about to say, for people that were actually there, they said Woodward and others are lying.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So now Woodward is lying about Mattis's attempted coup.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, my God.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, this is confusing.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		This is unfortunate.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		This is what happens when the truth is just so obvious that it's like they can't admit that they were stupid for any reason or that Trump is an idiot.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And that talking to Woodward is fucking stupid.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He shouldn't have done that.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He's incredibly stupid.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		And so it has to be even more outlandish.
		All right, right.
		We can only accelerate.
		That's what I'm saying with Woodward.
		We can only accelerate from here.
		What he did is meaningless now.
		He destroyed the meaning of his own work.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But I'm not disagreeing with you.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I know.
		I'm sorry.
		I'm just angry about it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I understand.
		And you have every right to be.
		I'm not disagreeing with you.
		But I would also say that maybe he wouldn't know that.
		You know?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's possible.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Maybe in a more sensible time, this would have been a disruptive that would have.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't know.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's possible.
		I mean, he probably thought it only took him forever to take down Nixon, too.
		I don't know.
		Fuck him.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I have no sympathy.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Fair enough.
		So, Steve has to wrestle with this, this question that is: If this guy that we love is so smart, why would he do something so stupid?
		That's a good question to talk to Woodward.
unidentified		That's a great question.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Now, granted, we're not going to talk about what he said.
		Oh, why wouldn't we?
		But Steve is asking questions that really answer themselves.
steve pieczenik ▲ ● ▼		Why would Trump allow Bob Woodward to have 18 interviews with him when Trump knew very well from Woodward's history that he's going to get a hit piece?
		It's going to be a disaster about him.
		And there's no upside.
		Yet he spent a whole hour in the beginning at the White House, and then every night for 18 nights, he would call Woodward.
		Now, why would a man who's so smart do that?
unidentified		Yeah, ask yourself that.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Do you know what it is exactly?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Narcissism?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's when a serial killer will go talk to the cops while they're investigating the crime he committed.
		That's 100% what it is.
		It is narcissism, some literation.
		How I can get away with everything.
		It's totally that.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I mean, it's, you know, granted, we're making an assumption, but boy, does it feel like that?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It sure looks exactly like that.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		So apparently, Steve, I mean, I should have known this.
		Apparently, him and Bob Woodward go way back.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Of course.
steve pieczenik ▲ ● ▼		I get to know Woodward.
		I thought he was a pony to begin with.
		He and I started at a newspaper called the Montgomery County Sentinel.
		He never had any journalism behind him.
		He's a CIA operative.
		I've known all about him for years.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Wait, What did he just say?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He started at the Montgomery.
unidentified		He started together at the Montgomery Journal Sentinel.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Wait, wait.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Steve Procenek works for the Montgomery Journal Sentinel?
tommy shane steiner ▲ ● ▼		What?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		What just happened here?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Steve's done everything.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		What just happened here?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Steve's done everything.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Who cares?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		So in this next clip, I knew young Martin Luther King Jr. as he was growing up in Alabama.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Sure.
		Yeah.
		He was the intro.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, he was.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So now Steve gets to answering the question of like, if Trump is so smart, why would he do this?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Because he's not.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, I would say that Steve's describing a real asshole here and someone who I definitely don't want to be president.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		So why did Trump do it?
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		So he'd know what his enemies were up to?
steve pieczenik ▲ ● ▼		That's one thing.
		But Trump, like yourself and possibly like me, we like the game.
		The game to us is far more important than anything anyone else can see.
		Now, what do I mean?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Good question.
steve pieczenik ▲ ● ▼		Look how many books came out now about him negatively.
		Mary Trump says that he's a terrible man.
		His sister says he's worse than terrible.
		Michael Cohn, his Jewish corrupt lawyer, says he's worried.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		What did that just say?
steve pieczenik ▲ ● ▼		And then you have other books coming out says that he's a disaster, John Bolton.
		Why does he do that?
		One word only.
		It's called Trump.
		You can knock it.
		You can praise it.
		He doesn't give a damn either way as long as you use the word T-R-U-M-P.
		And every one of these people who goes negatively against them, including the stupid publishers, are doing nothing more than to help Trump self-aggrandize because he understood something a long time ago that you and I understood.
		Every knock is a boost.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's really, really bad for a leader to think that way.
unidentified		Oh, man.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Because think about it.
		If you just allow that sort of reasoning to go to its logical extent, how much bad press would he get from nuking somebody?
		Like, how much bad press would he get from doing terrible things?
		Probably a ton.
		Who cares if it's bad press?
		They're talking about me.
		That is a really, really Cancerous mentality for someone with actual power to have.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Alex, do you know why he's doing this?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Because he's a narcissistic psychopath, Alex.
unidentified		Come on.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's something that you and I. That's what we want to do.
		It's all about the game.
		It's not about the hundreds of thousands of people that are dead he personally killed.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		We understand this because that's how we make money.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Look, you're in the game.
		It's like Omar, all right, man.
		It's like Omar.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		It's like King T. Barnum said, just get my name right.
		And Trump understands that that gives him the name recognition.
		And then there's also so much disinfo that none of it matters.
		And the more he survives disinfo, the more he almost becomes invincible to anything they might have that's real.
steve pieczenik ▲ ● ▼		You got it, and that's true of Alex Jones.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Whoa.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You guys accidentally kind of got it right if you just remove this.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
		Yeah.
		I mean, that also kind of is an admission that there is a lot of real stuff.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Totally.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That he's getting away with because of these representative fake things.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And that's not good.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, that's unfortunately kind of stunningly insightful and yet at the same time wrong.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And I don't know why Trump or Alex would want Trump to be invincible.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't think.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		No, you want your elected leaders to have and face no consequences for their actions, Dan.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Even when there's real things that are doing that are really bad.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's what you want.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Cool.
		I will say a lot of this episode has to do with Alex saying that the Chinese government is hacking his website.
		Sure.
		And I don't care.
		I don't care if he was actually having some kind of a DDoS attack or something.
		It's possible that, but I don't believe it was the Chinese government or anything.
		He spends a lot of time on it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Of course.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And I just didn't.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It was actually a scalar attack.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Could have been Steve.
		Who knows?
		Anyway, Roger was on, and he was saying that he wants a fair election, and the only possible fair election result is Trump winning.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Now, Steve, his position is more.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I don't want a fair election.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		And I want Trump to go.
unidentified		I will commit crimes in order to make sure that happens.
steve pieczenik ▲ ● ▼		Let me put this again.
		I've said it a couple of years ago on your show that the Clintons would never come back.
		And I said that there was a coup at the time.
		Let me put it again.
		If there's any attempt by the Democrats to come in legally or illegally, I can assure you and your audience that's not going to happen.
		I'm not going to pronounce what I have to say because I'll have the FBI right at my door as I had last time when I criticized Obama.
		But the bottom line is that there are many ways to make sure that the Democrats don't come to power.
		The legal way and there are other ways.
		Trump understands pretty much what has to be done.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Jesus.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That is like.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I mean, okay, I guess that's fascism for you.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I mean, you're openly talking on this radio, supposedly news program.
unidentified		I think we should overthrow the country if I don't get what I want.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Roger Stone is creating a scenario wherein only Trump winning is a fair election.
		Everything else is by definition not fair and a fraudulent election.
		And Pieczenik is saying that we have illegal means that we are going to use to make sure the Democrats can't ever come into power.
		You're like, all right, guys.
		Can you please just stop fucking pretending?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You say you're fascists and you want to make Trump king.
		Fuck off.
		Just cut it out.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, exactly.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Exactly.
		Stop trying to.
		And you're not even dancing around it at all.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And it becomes so overt when Steve is on.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		He's just a straight-up fascist.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Fuck due process.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, exactly.
		I don't give a shit.
		I don't even want a fair election.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		This country, America, is not about freedom.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's about business.
unidentified		Jesus.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		We are a business.
		Okay.
		All right.
		Alex, you should hate this guy.
unidentified		Yep.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So I think the coronavirus, COVID-19, and the challenges that we've all been faced with have taught us some lessons, I think.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Some of us.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Personally, I think I've learned a lot about the different struggles that people go through.
		The various things that you don't consider because maybe it's not exactly your experience of the world that other people have.
		Like people who are immunocompromised or have other conditions that put them at higher risk.
		The fear and the danger, interactions that you might be comfortable with to them is a completely different thing.
		It expanded my horizon and my awareness a little in ways that I definitely wish I was more aware of before, but I'm glad I know now.
		Secondly, it's also made me more aware of how much opportunity there is to help people.
		You know, there's a lot of things that you can do, even if you feel like there's nothing you can do.
unidentified		Totally.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And I appreciate those things a great deal.
		It's also taught me that maybe my lifestyle prior to it was a little bit isolated and confining.
		And maybe once things open up a little more, I should make a greater effort to not live as if I was in quarantine.
		Sure.
		Yeah, yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		There is that.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So there's some lessons.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And I would say that Steve has a different lesson.
steve pieczenik ▲ ● ▼		The reality is, coronavirus hit on a very interesting dynamic, and that was: do we need cities?
steve pieczenik ▲ ● ▼		And do we need cities that were really in effect?
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		No, obviously the cities are obsolete and corrupt and a big problem.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Fuck cities.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't know what organizational system he's advocating for.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Feudalism?
		I don't know.
		Even then, a castle is still kind of a city.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I don't know.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't know what kind of functional organizational structure he's looking for.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I sure as fuck don't want to find out.
unidentified		Nope.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's going to be something weird.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's not going to be good for me, personally.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		No.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You and I and everyone we've ever met will be fucked.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Fucked.
		Thoroughly.
		Oh, boy.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So Alex wants to talk to Steve about something really important because this is September 10th, and the next day is 9-11.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		And the time we have left, I'm going to hit a little bit of 9-11.
		Dr. Pacheneg's welcome back tomorrow.
		He wants you to get into 9-11.
		It's important to talk about what happened there and what went on.
		Now that we've moved on past that group, I don't talk about it a lot because I want to demoralize people, but we've covered it at nauseum.
		It's important to remember what happened so it doesn't happen again and to know that Trump called in the day after it happened and said, yeah, they had bombs in the buildings.
		They blew it up.
		I mean, he can see what happens.
		He's a good guy at the end of the day.
		We're blessed to have him.
		He deserves a Nobel Peace Prize that would bring credit back to that prize.
		It's become a joke.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Wow.
		That went some directions.
		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I mean, when Obama got the Peace Prize, it became a joke.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's Alex's point.
		Yeah, yeah, yeah.
		I would say that we've dealt with the group that did.
		Like, I thought it was the Globalists.
		I thought everything was the Globalist.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		No, no, no, no.
		We got the group.
		All right, fine.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Let's not explore that at all.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Do not worry about those pages that were redacted.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Don't worry about that.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		They do run out of time to talk about 9-11.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, do they?
		Yes.
		It seemed like Alex was very specifically avoiding the fact that he still thinks Bush did it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Or does he not still think Bush did it?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't know what he thinks, quite honestly.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's fair anymore.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I have no idea.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So they run out of time, and they decide that they'll reconvene tomorrow on 9-11 to talk about 9-11.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Are they going to talk about what Trump said about how tall his building was?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No, probably not.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I don't think they will.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No.
		This made me laugh.
		This is pretty funny because Alex, much like at the beginning of Steve's interview, and he's trying to talk about Mattis and this coup, and Steve's like, fuck a coup, who gives a shit?
		No big deal.
		Alex is really making a meal out of how scary China is and how, oh, no, China.
steve pieczenik ▲ ● ▼		Let me put the China issue in context.
		Number one, we've confronted China in the South China Sea.
		I wrote about that years ago.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		Sure, you said it was coming on your boat.
steve pieczenik ▲ ● ▼		Right.
		And PAC specifically, I'm not worried about China right now because China has a bigger problem in the United States, and that is Trump's personal friend, Modi of India.
		Because Modi of India will not tolerate Xi's incursions into the Himalayas.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		We put them in check with Modi.
		Absolutely.
		I agree economically.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You guys installed Modi?
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		What about the left's hatred of themselves in the country?
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		That's what I'm saying.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I've got to move along to that.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I've got to pivot over to another conversation because Steve just kind of deflated all of your fears about China.
unidentified		A little bit.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Apparently, they're in checkmate because of Modi.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		See, here's the trick.
		China's not worried about our fascist dictator.
		They're worried about India's fascist dictator.
		Done.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So now Steve has defused Alex's talking point about Mattis running a coup.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Sure.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Now he's also diffused Alex's, I mean, China's the most terrifying thing in the world thing.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I mean, that's Alex's almost entire reason to exist now.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You don't even need to worry about it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No, because Modi.
unidentified		Ah, man.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Great.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Pieczenik.
		Pieczenik is a great one-off interview.
		Everything that he says is reset at the end.
		He's like the sitcom where at the end of the sitcom, we always get back to where we started.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He's the balloon popper.
		Alex just brings him in.
		He's like, fuck your balloons.
		Fuck your balloons.
		I don't give a shit.
		You spent a while inflating that thing?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Don't give up, Buck.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And then he leaves and Alex is just back to normal.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You are right about the sitcom thing, but he just wrecks shop.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's like C-Lab 2021.
		Every episode, the C-Lab explodes at the end.
		And then the next one, you're just like, everything's fine.
		Let's just move on.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And this last clip is another example of it.
		Alex keeps talking about how they're going to try and keep Trump out of office and they're going to have all these machinations.
		He's like, what do we do, Steve?
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		In the few minutes we have left, what do you predict their ducex or their ace in the hole could be?
		A false flag?
		I mean, I don't want to be overconfident.
		What could this corrupt establishment do to make sure Trump doesn't get in?
steve pieczenik ▲ ● ▼		They're not going to do anything.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		What's her day of sex going to be?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Is it going to have a false flag?
unidentified		What are they going to do?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Going to set off a new blob of power plant, throw Antifa at everybody?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		We're not going to do shit.
unidentified		Balloon popped.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's very good.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So, I mean, as we come to the end of this stretch of time, like, I mean, we see this continuing of Alex.
		I'm not going to take the bait, but Alex is talking about his financial troubles.
		That's consistent.
		The aggressive ad pitches.
		Totally.
		Certainly.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Blasphemous even.
unidentified		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Certainly getting more and more of those and more entertaining versions, I appreciate.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Turns out Stone doesn't like Bob Woodward.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		What a shock.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		For some reason, he just doesn't like him.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Alex is a liar.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No real talk about some of the issues that are the most important to a lot of people, like the fires and the West Coast.
		Right.
		No real conversation about the tapes that Woodward released.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Ooh, they're all lies.
		You don't even need to talk about them, Dan.
		Definitely don't play him.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Right.
		So Alex then builds up his whole thing of his version of the Woodward story based on a Zero Hedge article.
		Has Roger Stone come in and just say Woodward's an asshole.
		And then Steve deflates all of his narratives.
		It's just weird.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's very weird.
		You know what?
		Remember, like, I'm stuck in my craw, but it's Deus X. Not do sex.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I know.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's just, you know, do sex.
		Yeah.
		Anyways, it's frustrating.
		Where were you?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I mean, we were texting earlier when I was telling you, like, we might have to record a little bit late because I've got to get the, you know, as current of an episode as possible.
		I want to see what the Woodward fallout is.
		And your text was, it's going to be disappointing.
unidentified		Yep.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And I was like, yeah, probably.
		And it is.
		It is a little disappointing.
		Except for the fact that, you know, we got this Woodward story.
		I'm calling in Roger and Steve.
		It's like, all right.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I do love a paganic appearance.
		I do.
		When he's the Kerry Cassidy of this show.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		When he's grumpy or when he's just like, go fuck yourself, then he's great.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But when he's a little sleepy or just not trying, then it's just so boring.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, and the inserted unnecessary racism is always an issue.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Holy shit.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Why?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Points out at everybody who's Jewish.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Jesus, man.
		That's just too much.
		That's just too much.
		Calm it down.
		Even for us on InfoWars.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I feel like we probably should have maybe discussed that.
		But the reason that I don't generally is because we talk about it a bit.
		Steve does it all the time.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Every time he's on, it's a casual.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		But I'm glad that you called it out.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's a tick.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's like he can't stop himself from being the most racist person that you can think of.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Quite.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's awful.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So to get this taste out of our mouth, let's take some calls.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That sounds great.
unidentified		Hey, Dan.
		Hey, Jordan.
		This is Policy Monk Charlotte from Washington, D.C.
		And I wanted to float an idea past you guys.
		I have a theory that this could prove to add just a little bit more lighter fluid to the tire fire that is 2020.
		But do we know anybody in Joe Biden's camp so that we can add a pillar to his platform, which would argue that as president, he will force Twitter and Facebook to reinstate Alex Jones?
		Something to think about.
		Anyway, thanks, boys.
		Really appreciate the podcast.
		Y'all take care.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I think that's a great idea.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's a heel turn.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, I would love to see this.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Here's why.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		What?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Presidents don't have to follow through on their promises.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's 100% true.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		In fact, I would argue most of them never do.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So Biden could fleece Alex by insisting that he was going to get him back on Twitter just to see if that would make Alex.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Would it work?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I wonder.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That would be a good question.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I could see him softening a little bit.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You think so?
		Alex, maybe?
		All right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		We'll see.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's what you do to broaden up your base.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You know, you invite Alex back on Twitter.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You don't need to follow through with it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You don't even have to have any intention of doing that.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Just say that it's a big part of your plan.
steve pieczenik ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
unidentified		Hi, Dan and Jordan.
		This is Matt in Washington.
		I just wanted to call to say you've helped me process losing my parents to Trump, and it means a lot to me.
		I'm also sure I'm not the only listener with this issue, so shout out to everybody going through this.
		My parents used to be run-of-the-mill conservative Christians, but 2016 opened them to the wide world of conspiracy theory, which completely pushed me away from them.
		I found your show through Robert Evans, and both his shows and yours have helped me to understand what the hell my parents are caught up in.
		At first, I thought I could use your show to help them somehow, but I now appreciate that not many people let their kids change their minds.
		The work you do is so, so important, though.
		And I hope we see more shows like yours in the future that deconstruct conspiracy narratives.
		So thank you guys so much.
		You are both awesome, and your ice cubes are very juicy.
		Bye.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I'm uncomfortable with how positive that calls and how complimentary it is, but I wanted to play it because there's a lot of people who are probably in similar situations.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Fuck, I am.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And, you know, I wanted to extend our thoughts.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Condolences, yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And people who are listening who might be able to empathize with what Carler was saying.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I will absolutely commiserate with, yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, you're not alone out there, people.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So, next call.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Hi.
unidentified		I wanted to say that I love the show.
		Also, I just wanted to take a moment to say hello to Celine.
		I hope that she's having a good time.
		Thanks.
		This is Gabby, by the way.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Hey, Gabby.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Not enough people giving Celine a shout out.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It was nice to hear that she was thinking of Celine.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's great.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Now's as good a time as any for a Celine update.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, that's a good idea.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I have murdered my cat.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You murdered her?
unidentified		No, I didn't.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Oh, but she's on thin ice.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That'd be a weird way to.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I've murdered her with love.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		What's your bright spot today?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Well, have I got a doozy for you?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No, I'm just a little bit, you know, as I've gotten more into this home gardening thing, it's tough to balance.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Do you think you've been neglecting her a little bit?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, I've been paying a good amount of attention, but it's hard to balance having a cat in the home and also pots of clams around.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You have to find a way to make sure that, like, because if you look over there, my greens are stamped all over them.
unidentified		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I see that now.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Basically, what I've had to do is I've had to try and find a way to...
		Most of the plants are here in the office.
		Mm-hmm.
unidentified		And...
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And so basically, I just can't have her in the office when I'm not in here.
		And it's not a perfect system because obviously she can still, if I'm not paying attention, she can still get up there.
		She ate two of my plants.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Of course.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		A couple times I've just gone to the bathroom and I've come back and she's knocked over a pot from the side and then just is looking at me like what she's doing cat shit.
		Yeah, I know.
		And it's not her fault.
		I know she's not being malicious, but like.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		No, she is.
		That's cat shit.
		Cats are malicious.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You know, it's tough to balance, but from what I can tell, she's having fun doing it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So in terms of Gabby's question, she's doing good and having fun.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yes, once again, cats have fun by torturing you.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
unidentified		Hey, guys.
		This is Scott in Austin, Texas.
		And I heard your broadcast the other day about Alex Jones and his protest at Barton Springs, where he claimed he had 200 people protesting.
		I actually work in Barton Springs and got down to see the protest about an hour or so after it started.
		Did not see 200 of his followers, maybe 40 or 50.
		There were about 200 people at the Springs, but they were already there of their own volition.
		But of course, you know, likes to claim false numbers.
		And also, happy ending.
		Some citizen called the cops on them because they were harassing people with megaphones.
		And shortly after that, he got really quiet.
		Love the show.
		Keep up the good work.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		This is fake news.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Fake news.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I had nothing but a great time at Barton Springs.
alex jones ▲ ● ▼		We had a food truck.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Everything was great.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Dan's right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		All right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, I appreciate the first-hand report there from Barton Springs.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Of course, he added other people who were just hanging out.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Into the totals.
unidentified		Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Also, I'm sure that it was a globalist who said that Alex was harassing him because you can't harass somebody with a little baby bullhorn.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You cannot.
		It's against the reality.
		It's not possible.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Also, I have been trying to use Tyranny Slapper to annoy Celine.
unidentified		Okay.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And it has not been working.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		She is unfazed by the baby bullhorn.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Of course she is.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Oh, well.
unidentified		Even she finds it harassed.
		Globalist Amy here.
		I'm a huge fan.
		I love your work.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, no.
unidentified		Seeing a new episode, drop is off in one of my bright spots of the day.
		So I really appreciate and thank you so much for keeping me laughing and all of us laughing during these super, super shit times.
		I also really wanted to add my voice to the Australian contingent and say it's pronounced Quoka.
		But what I really wanted to ask is, I'm getting my cat Pluto a new kitty friend.
		We're adopting a new cat.
		And I would really love your suggestions on what their name should be.
		Thank you so much again.
		Stay safe.
		And again, Quokka.
		Thanks, guys.
		Bye.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I'm at war with Australia.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Quoka.
		It's just over for us.
		We've just lost.
		We've just lost.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Also, I'd like to take this opportunity to apologize because on our last episode, I believe I referred to Australia as an island.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And I don't think that they're going...
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Technically, you know.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		If we're getting this kind of blowback for Quokka, I don't think anyone's going to take kindly to that.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So before we get a flood of Australian calls, I apologize for.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's like Pluto.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Australia's been downgraded from continent to island.
unidentified		I'm wholehearted in my apology.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't know.
		That's fun.
		Cat name.
		I mean, obviously.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Duncan, Idaho, my friend.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Dunes coming.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		You got the Dune.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Dunes around the corner.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		All right.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Duncan, Idaho.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Duncan, Idaho.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I would say Daryl Rundis.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Daryl Rundis is a good one, too.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's not a good cat name.
unidentified		It's not a good cat name, but you can live with it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't know.
		I was trying to think of funny InfoWars names.
		Daryl Rundis.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Daryl Rundis going to go.
		I'm going to stick with.
		I can see Leo Katgami.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Leo Katgami.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Leo Katgami.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		No, that doesn't work.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No, that's not.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, but you could just call it Leo.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		True.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
unidentified		True.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Who else?
unidentified		Ooh.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Just go with feline Contessa.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's not a name.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Contessa.
		Cat.
		Tessa.
		I don't know why I'm doing portmanteaus with cat in the name.
		You're not going to name your cat cat something.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		No.
		Rob Meow?
		That doesn't work.
		No, that's a bad pod.
		If I got another cat, I might name it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Rob Mew.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I might name it Buckley.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		That's actually a pretty good cat name.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, Buckley is a pretty fun name.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Buckley is a fun name.
		I like a good Buckley.
		I don't like a bad Buckley.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't know.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't know if I have any good ideas, but I wish you the best in your new pet friend adventure.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Indeed.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And the naming thereof.
unidentified		Hey, is this the tap, guys?
		Damn Jordan.
		Huge fan.
		Uli down here in Springfield, Missouri.
		Just wanted to say thank you so much for calling out Springfield.
		I'm a transplant.
		There are good people, even in these weird bastions called conservative ethics, we could call it.
		Anyway, I just wanted to say thanks for the show that you do.
		I have lagged severely on my own podcast because I'm too busy catching all of your episodes.
		And if you ever come down to Springfield, Missouri, you know, you got a place to have some beers at our brewery, 4x4 Brewing, and we'll catch you later.
		Thanks a lot, guys.
		You're awesome.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Shout out to these shit on cities in the all over.
		All the places that people look down on.
		Shout out.
		And shout out to 4x4 Brewing.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Totally.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Not sponsored, but give them a look.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's a wonk brewery.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I'm definitely going to a wonk brewery if I'm in Springfield.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		When are you ever going to be in Springfield?
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Ah, you never know.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I was in Springfield.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Maybe we'll have to escape from cities because they're obsolete now.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Well, Springfield's still a city.
		Yeah.
		Not a Chicago city.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It's a township.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Come on.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I was in Springfield maybe five years ago.
		Yeah.
		I think.
		Probably.
		It was fun.
		I went to do a show with friends Dan Sheehan and Tyler Snodgrass.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yeah, great guys.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I went down to I don't remember the name of the place.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, man, if you're a fan of the game, Yakov showed up.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, Yakov.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		You got a little Yakov?
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		He and Tyler Snodgrass are friends.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And so Yakov Smirnoff showed up, and I did not say hi to him.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Oh, come on.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		In our country, we say hi to you, Dan.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I told this story before, I think.
		But he was being bumrushed by tons of people who were wanting an autograph and stuff.
		And I just felt like it would be shitty.
		But I gave him a look from across the room, and I think he got it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		A little pregnant hello look.
unidentified		Yeah.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
unidentified		Hey, Tech.
		I just have so much stuff I got to get to that I don't know if I can cover it all in this phone call, so I'm not going to get to any of it.
		But I did want to say, Jordan, that you had mentioned recording an audiobook for your book, The Quiet Part Loud.
		And I was going to say I really appreciate the audio format.
		Thank you.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		People appreciate the audio format.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I'm working on it.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		I'm working on it.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's a process.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It is very hard.
		It's very hard.
		There are a lot of choices that I didn't realize that I was going to have to make because of the way I write dialogue and how it's impossible to kind of keep track of.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		It's hard.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It is hard.
		It's very hard.
		But I'm working on it.
		It's happening.
		It will happen.
		That's good.
		It will.
		I promise you.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		That's good for the people to know.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		And for now, they can find your book at quietpartloud.com.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Indeed.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		So that nice little plug in there.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
unidentified		Hi, Dan and Jordan.
		This is Bob Hartzel from St. Louis.
		I sent you some posters a couple months ago.
		First off, I want to say do not accidentally dial 1-800 for cat guys.
		That is not the right number.
		And number two, Dan, you mentioned your brother and the art he does and how proud you are of him.
		And that reminded me that my brother, who was always an engineer when we were kids, has gone on to make a political strip called Middle Age Riot.
		It's on Instagram and Facebook.
		And I think he would really enjoy it.
		I'm really proud of the work he's done on that.
		I also wanted to thank you for the shout-out earlier in the summer.
		It's been a rough summer, and that really helped make it.
		Keep up the good work.
		Talk to you later.

jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		It does seem like we're not sponsored, but it seems like we're doing a lot of sponsored content.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I don't actually mind that so much.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		The idea that people call in and say some cool project or something that maybe people could take.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		If you call in and say that you're really happy with your bank and you really love Chase Bank, then you're not going to get a not going to happen.
dan friesen ▲ ● ▼		I mean, eventually we will have to figure out a line in terms of that, but I think we're on the right side of it for now.
jordan holmes ▲ ● ▼		So far, yeah.
