| Andy in Kansas. | ||

Hello, Alex. | |
| I'm a first time caller. | ||
| I'm a huge fan. | ||
| I love your room. | ||

| I love you. | ||
| Hey, everybody. | ||
| Welcome back to KnowledgeFight. | ||
| I'm Dan. | ||
| I'm Jordan. | ||
| We're a couple dudes like to sit around, drink novelty beverages, and talk a little bit about Alex Jones. | ||
| Oh, indeed we are, Dan. | ||
| Jordan. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Dan! | |
| Jordan. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Jordan. | |
| I have a quick question for you. | ||
| All right. | ||
| What's your bright spot? | ||
| My bright spot today has to do with worms. | ||
| Oh. | ||
| Worm farm is going strong. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| It was touch and go there for a bit. | ||
| I did not know exactly what I was doing or if I was feeding them correctly and everything. | ||
| But now, there's a feeling that I have that is like, the act of composting is making food more exciting for me a little bit. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Because, like, for example, this morning I made a couple eggs and some coffee, and I realized that I can take these eggshells, feed them to the worms. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Coffee grinds, feed them to the worms. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Boom! | ||
| You can just feed coffee grinds to worms? | ||
| Oh, they love them. | ||
| It seems like you can feed anything. | ||
| How can you be worried about whether you can't feed anything to worms? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| What can't you feed to worms? | ||
| Spicy things? | ||
| Spicy things. | ||
| Yeah, so like peppers. | ||
| Non-spicy peppers are fine, but hot peppers, no. | ||
| Citrus, you want to avoid. | ||
| You don't want to give them too much citrus. | ||
| What happens? | ||
| Do they explode? | ||
| They turn into gremlins. | ||
| Oh, that's no good. | ||
| No. | ||
| Also, like cheese, you don't want to give worms to worms. | ||
| Lactose intolerant? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And I think meat, too, isn't good, because that'll also, like, rot. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| That's not good. | ||
| So you can give them garbage, is what you're saying. | ||
| Give them, like, vegetable and fruit cuttings. | ||
| Sure, sure, sure. | ||
| Cardboard, paper. | ||
| Stuff that you normally compost. | ||
| Yeah, compost stuff. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| Yeah, but it's interesting, because it's turning into, like, almost a feeling of, like... | ||
| Hey, is there a way that I can make almost everything neutral? | ||
| Sure, sure. | ||
| I ate the inside of the egg and my worms ate the shell. | ||
| I drank the coffee and then the coffee grinds. | ||
| No trash, no waste. | ||
| And they will turn into more things. | ||
| Fertilizer. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| There you go. | ||
| It's perfect. | ||
| So that was a bright spot for me, thinking about how me and my worms can split a meal. | ||
| When are you going to start pooping on the worms? | ||
| Like, direct to just stand up. | ||
| Just let it fly. | ||
| I don't know if that's as bad as cheese, but I think you're not supposed to do that. | ||
| Well, you can't eat any nuts, obviously. | ||
| I think you're not supposed to do that. | ||
| So what's your bright spot? | ||
| My bright spot is twofold, Dan. | ||
| First, my most important bright spot is always annoying to you, but Rafa won his 13th French Open. | ||
| Congrats to Rafa. | ||
| Rafa, he won his 13th French Open. | ||
| It was very exciting. | ||
| I genuinely believe that if he stopped playing all the other tournaments and just played clay court, he could probably win another 13th. | ||
| It's insanely good. | ||
| Good on him. | ||
| It's incredible. | ||
| But my second bright spot, Dan, do you recall the endless story about the strawberries? | ||
| The chocolate-covered strawberries? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| About the delivery date. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Yes, it was wrong. | ||
| So we were done with it. | ||
| And then on her birthday, I didn't send any emails. | ||
| I didn't do anything. | ||
| Her birthday, everything came and went by. | ||
| No big deal. | ||
| The day after her birthday... | ||
| More chocolate strawberries showed up. | ||
| I didn't order them. | ||
| That's not even the right day for when I would have ordered them. | ||
| No, they would have been late if they weren't early. | ||
| Yes, exactly. | ||
| If they weren't also early. | ||
| They just sent me more strawberries. | ||
| So I have so many goddamn chocolate strawberries. | ||
| And questions. | ||
| Yeah, you can only eat so... | ||
| Did you know that there's a limit on how many you can eat before you're like, I'm done. | ||
| With chocolate-covered strawberries. | ||
| I did actually know that. | ||
| And it wasn't from reading an article. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, it wasn't. | |
| I just know that I can make it through about two of them. | ||
| And then I'm kind of like, ugh. | ||
| I'm going to need to wait another six months before I have one of these. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Which is why I didn't spring for that fondue set. | ||
| That would be smart. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That would be smart. | ||
| Thought about it. | ||
| Hey, why not have a chocolate fountain in the house? | ||
| I don't think the worms can eat the chocolate fountain, though. | ||
| No, they can't. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| You can swim in it. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| That would be a good idea. | ||
| So, yeah. | ||
| Jordan, today we've got an interesting episode to go over. | ||
| We're going to be talking about October 9th, 2020. | ||
| All right. | ||
| I'm Dan, this is 2020. | ||
|
unidentified
|
God damn it! | |
| That is Friday's episode from last week. | ||
| I would like to start this episode off with a tiny bit of an apology to the folks. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| Mostly for the sort of radio silence. | ||
| We didn't have an episode on Friday, and I didn't post anything online. | ||
| And part of the reason I get into that, but... | ||
| We used to talk a bit more openly about mental health struggles on the podcast. | ||
| And one of the reasons that I have talked about it less is because part of my struggle... | ||
| Is hurt by the idea of everyone knowing my struggle. | ||
| The anxiety that I deal with gets worse if I talk about it. | ||
| And I'm aware that there are tens of thousands of people who listen to the show. | ||
| Whereas I admire your ability to be open about your bipolar struggle much more. | ||
| I guess I would say bravely than I. I mean, in a certain sense, it's also just a side effect of being bipolar. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, I guess. | |
| What else am I going to be loud about? | ||
| I guess that's fair. | ||
| It's a different story. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And so I got on some meds for depression and anxiety a while back, and we haven't really talked a ton about that because I also don't really find it as interesting. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| But it was doing quite well. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, that's another reason that you weren't talking about is because you were feeling better. | ||
| Yeah, quite a bit. | ||
| There were ups and downs, but I have been somebody who's been reluctant to take meds in the past, at least in my more adult years. | ||
| And part of the reason for it is... | ||
| Fears, uncertainties, not distrust of like they were. | ||
| No, no, no, of course. | ||
| I just always thought like, well, I'll be able to talk my way through this eventually. | ||
| Sure, sure, sure, sure. | ||
| And then I gave it a shot, just thought about like, oh, let's explore this and see. | ||
| And I had some positive results and it was great. | ||
| And this last week, I accidentally had stopped taking my meds. | ||
| And one of the things that's really tough about that is somebody who doesn't, You know, isn't a habitual med taker? | ||
| Sure, sure, sure. | ||
| It is that you don't really notice sometimes when you stop taking them. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| I think it's this really weird phenomenon that I don't fully understand, and I don't think I've heard talked about all that much, but there was a good week before my... | ||
| I don't know exactly what my point is, but I had a little bit of trouble. | ||
| Last week. | ||
| And I appreciate in advance, I guess, people being nice. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| We'll see. | ||
| No one has any obligation to be nice. | ||
| This would be a weird time for them to turn on you, but... | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But I'm okay. | ||
| Everything's alright. | ||
| And I'm sorry, like I said, to have radio silence. | ||
| But the reason for that was that part of... | ||
| What I really needed to do to get back to normal was to consult with help, take the meds, get back to normal, do some healthy things, and avoid being on social media at all. | ||
| No, it was the smartest move for you. | ||
| I really apologize for anybody who got confused or was worried. | ||
| It's nice that someone may be worried, but I would hate to have precipitated that. | ||
| And, you know, onward and upward. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I don't want to dwell too much on this, but, like, you know, and the only thing you can really do is keep moving forward. | ||
| Yeah, of course. | ||
| So, we shall. | ||
| No, absolutely. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It was, yeah, it was difficult. | |
| It was a little scary, but we're back on it. | ||
| Yeah, and I appreciate your help in particular. | ||
| You're a great friend, and... | ||
| Ah, come on. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Ah! | |
| Ah, Dan, we had an argument one time. | ||
| Come on now. | ||
| Didn't we? | ||
| Yeah, probably. | ||
| A couple times. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| So yeah, we're gonna get back to, you know, normalcy. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But today, on this episode, we're gonna be talking about October 9th. | ||
| And there's not a lot going on on this episode. | ||
| And I thought there would be. | ||
| Because, you know, this is after the vice presidential debates. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| And, of course, a fly landed on Mike Pence's head. | ||
| That's the only thing anyone will remember from those debates. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And, you know, Alex made a big deal out of a fly going around Obama and said that he smelled like sulfur. | ||
| It was a sign that he's demon-possessed. | ||
| It does seem like it would be at least something you have to address. | ||
| It was a big part of Alex's rhetoric, and so I figured, like... | ||
| It's gonna be like, oh, it's a good fly. | ||
| Ah, yeah. | ||
| Something like that. | ||
| This is God's fly. | ||
| And then you have the other issue that I know that this is one of your big sort of lanes. | ||
| That was Trump's treatment. | ||
| I don't know if you want to say something about this. | ||
| What? | ||
| That he's fueled by abortions now? | ||
| What do you want me to say about his treatment? | ||
| Say a little more about this, because I didn't look into this specific treatment. | ||
| Well, I mean, it's exaggerating. | ||
| It's a bunch of stuff that uses themselves, and some of them are sourced from abortions. | ||
| But that's the way that someone like Alex would present this. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| If it were... | ||
| Hillary Clinton getting a treatment that involves themselves. | ||
| She is eating abortions to survive, and she will eat you when she runs out of aborted fetuses! | ||
| Right. | ||
| So, Trump is getting this treatment that Alex would deride as demonic, and his enemies, and a fly landed on Mike Pence's head. | ||
| And so, I was like, well, gotta click. | ||
| Gotta see what's going on here. | ||
| Gotta see what's up there, yeah. | ||
| And, uh, yeah. | ||
| Not much. | ||
| I'm not surprised. | ||
| I'm not surprised that that information isn't really being widely publicized in the far right circles. | ||
| What, the fly? | ||
| Yeah, no, not the fly part. | ||
| No, not the fly. | ||
| The fact that their president, his life was saved by abortion should really be something that they think about. | ||
| Like a lot, but they won't. | ||
| Which is amazing. | ||
| So, a lot of the beginning of the show is about the UN getting an award for fighting the use of hunger in war. | ||
| That sounds exactly like the top story everyone was talking about on Friday. | ||
| I remember that one being huge. | ||
| The UN got an award, and you know, it's the kind of thing where there'll be like a war that's going on, and some leader will starve people as a means of... | ||
| Yes, of course. | ||
| down, which is causing the collapse of the first world, which will cause the collapse of the third world, which will kill off everybody, which is basically them using hunger as war. | ||
| And so he believes it's hypocritical. | ||
| He goes on for a very long time about it, and I found it incredibly boring. | ||
| Yeah, that doesn't surprise me. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That very much doesn't surprise me. | ||
| I was bored when the moment you said he started talking about the UN, I was like, what are we even here for? | ||
| What are we here for? | ||
| I'm not talking about the UN today. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So, this was the first thing that I heard that I kind of was, like, interested a little bit. | ||
| Because there's a long stretch of just complaining about the UN. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah. | |
| Yeah, they have learned helplessness drills they do, and they also have situational ethics. | ||
| They call it spaceship or lifeboat, where they do this with astronauts. | ||
| They'll decide if somebody's got to take cyanide pills because they're not going to... | ||
| Make it back in enough time for everybody to have no food and water. | ||
| They'll decide who's most essential and who isn't. | ||
| Then you decide who dies first. | ||
| Then once you've gotten into that mindset, well, now you've just given into total eugenics. | ||
| And so that's really where all this is going. | ||
| I don't understand. | ||
| What else would you do to prepare astronauts for a really bad situation? | ||
| They all die simultaneously. | ||
| That's the only way to not support eugenics in this situation, Dan. | ||
| Obviously. | ||
| I mean, I would like astronauts to be well-trained. | ||
| And I think there are few higher-stakes situations than something going wrong in space. | ||
| It's hard. | ||
| You don't like to think about it. | ||
| You don't like to realize that sometimes maybe someone does have to die in order for the rest of the crew to make it home. | ||
| Sure, sure, sure. | ||
| But what's the alternative? | ||
| Don't talk about it? | ||
|
unidentified
|
And then they fight up in space about who's going to... | |
| Oh, we're drawing straws? | ||
| We're astronauts. | ||
| We're not going to draw straws like we're in Lord of the Fucking Flies. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| Then the one person who can fly the ship... | ||
| I know they can all fly, more or less. | ||
| But like, you know, somebody who may be more essential than getting the mission home ends up drawing the straw. | ||
| Like, well, sorry, fair is fair. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Like, why wouldn't they have these exercises? | ||
| Because they're committed to not using eugenics, Dan. | ||
| That's what real principles mean. | ||
| Everyone dies on that spaceship. | ||
| And if you want to use eugenics on Earth, we all take cyanide pills the same way. | ||
| Daily. | ||
| It's very silly to me the way Alex takes these kinds of things where, you know, it's a worst-case scenario planning if you're in space, for example. | ||
| And then it's like, this is the plan for everyone. | ||
| No, that's the plan for when something goes wrong in space. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Very unique circumstances. | ||
| They've even got a plan for if somebody goes space crazy. | ||
| They've got a whole chain of command thing set up. | ||
| They've got the whole thing. | ||
| Also, if you're not doing that, what's the alternative? | ||
| If you're not doing the, like, here's what we do if this disaster happens. | ||
| Are you telling me that you want, like, mission control to implant suicide chips in the back of their head and be like, sorry, Louie's gotta go. | ||
| Like, boom, and he's gone? | ||
| Like, that's scary. | ||
| That's really scary. | ||
| I think Alex would be against that. | ||
| I would hope so. | ||
| I think he just wants him to wing it. | ||
| I think he kind of does. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I would wing it in that situation. | ||
| So why not you? | ||
| I think it's a bad plan. | ||
| So like I said, the entire beginning of the show is just about this UN getting an award. | ||
| And I probably wouldn't play this clip except for how it ends. | ||
| Instead of coronavirus, the hunger will kill us. | ||
| The global food crisis looms. | ||
| That was back in April. | ||
| Oh, but don't worry. | ||
| The UN just got an award for fighting food as a weapon as they use it as a weapon. | ||
| Be like if I brought a puppy in here and got that sword hypothetically. | ||
| And chop its head off, and then the S, whatever it's called, the Dog and Cat Association, whatever it is, SSPCA, whatever they're called. | ||
| It'd be like if I brought a puppy in here, I would never do that. | ||
| I love dogs, hypothetically. | ||
| Chopped its head off, getting an award from the local animal rights group. | ||
| Talks about killing dogs a lot. | ||
| He talks about killing dogs a lot. | ||
| Quite a bit. | ||
| And I know that he loves to throw in, like, hypothetically, politically and stuff. | ||
| Sure, sure, sure. | ||
| But the timing of it was pretty bad there. | ||
| He said, I love dogs, hypothetically. | ||
| Yeah, I know. | ||
| The train of thought there suggests that hypothetically involves all of it. | ||
| Like, hypothetically, if I love dogs. | ||
| Were I to like dogs, then... | ||
| I would never cut a head off of a dog. | ||
| The cat and dog association would be up at arms. | ||
| All right. | ||
| So, one of the other big stories that had broken by Friday that I was interested in seeing what Alex had to say about was the news about the militia folks who had planned to kidnap Michigan Governor Widmer. | ||
| Now, we could talk about that, but the UN did something, Dan, that's way more important than an attempted overthrow of a state. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well... | |
| I was interested because I felt like, ah, militia, Alex hates Whitmer. | ||
| It kind of feels like it's got to come up. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Like, everything feels like it's got to come up. | ||
| Fly on Pence's head has to come up. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Huge. | |
| This had to. | ||
| And one of the things that gets really depressing about covering Alex in the present day is, like, I could Mad Libs his show for the most part. | ||
| Like, I knew exactly what he was going to say about this plot already. | ||
| I'm going to go to break and I'm going to come back and hit a lot of other really important news. | ||
| We've got, again, the supposed... | ||
| Militia commander up there is an Antifa individual that hates Trump, police in America, and the Republican Party. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There we go. | |
| But he is the guy that was going to get Queenie Whitmer. | ||
| By the way, I would have covered the food story as our top story, regardless of the fact we're running a giant sale on high-quality, horrible food, but I think it is an example. | ||
| Everything is so predictable. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You son of a bitch. | |
| I'm just shaking my head. | ||
| Just like, stop it, man. | ||
| You son of a bitch. | ||
| You can't be doing that. | ||
| Yeah, pretty impressive. | ||
| Get the fuck out of here. | ||
| Hey, look, the reason I'm covering this story is because it's important, but also, I should tell you, food buckets. | ||
| Go to my Patriot Supply affiliate link that I've got now. | ||
| He's still plugging that. | ||
| It's so ridiculous. | ||
| Every time. | ||
| I am going to whip all of my far-right people into a frenzy, knowing full well that many of them are in militias. | ||
| I know many of them have violent fantasies, and I have told them that it's a good idea to choose targets in the higher-ups and take them out. | ||
| And then, when something happens, it was Antifa, Dan! | ||
| It was Antifa! | ||
| I don't know if this militia guy who is the leader of this group was necessarily interested in the same brand of shit that Alex was, but you're right. | ||
| I mean, that is the strategy. | ||
| It is antagonize people to do things and then blame Antifa. | ||
| It's more or less the name of the game. | ||
| And you knew the second you saw that story, it's like, well, it looks like that's a leftist. | ||
| Yep, yep, yep. | ||
| And so... | ||
| I gotta say, he plays some clips of the militia leader talking, and honestly, it sounds like Alex in the past. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, of course. | ||
| Because he's talking about, like, you know, Trump isn't, he's a tyrant, man. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| You know, like, all this stuff that he's, you know, like, you need to be free, dude. | ||
| Like, oh, the police, they're just there to follow orders. | ||
| Sure, sure. | ||
| Like, it sounds like Alex's, most of his career. | ||
| Well, I mean, yeah, that's because it's what you believe. | ||
| I mean, it's not what he believes. | ||
| He believes that there is high-quality, storable food with your name on it, Dan. | ||
| Alex is playing, essentially, this, like, no true Scotsman type game. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, totally. | ||
| He's like, hey, no right-wing militia weirdo would say bad things about Trump, therefore this guy isn't. | ||
| Part of my world. | ||
| See? | ||
| Why am I associated with him? | ||
| What, is he saying anything that I'm saying? | ||
| No, I love Trump so much that I will lick his boot all day, every day. | ||
| I would never say anything like that. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So, about, you know, at the end of the first hour, towards the end of the first hour, something weird happened. | ||
| That was pretty unexpected. | ||
| Alright, here we are in the final segment of this hour. | ||
| Owen Sawyer's coming in. | ||
| I've got an emergency, just like last Friday. | ||
| Family matter I have to attend to, part of the ongoing harassment that InfoWars goes through. | ||
| And then I'll be back in the third and fourth hours today. | ||
| But no one's going to knock it out of the park. | ||
| So I have left to go to family court. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Like you did the previous Friday. | ||
| It's part of his harassment family court. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| I don't know, man. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's a bummer. | |
| That's a real bummer. | ||
| That is a huge bummer. | ||
| Just watching this episode and just him being like, militia, that's a fucking Antifa guy, whatever. | ||
| False flag. | ||
| Spoiler alert, the Trump's treatment and the fly don't come up. | ||
| Don't come up at all. | ||
| At all. | ||
| That's a surprise. | ||
| That blew my mind right there. | ||
| So Alex leaves for about an hour. | ||
| Actually, only about 35 minutes. | ||
| So he probably teleconferenced. | ||
| I can't imagine he drove to the courthouse and back in the time that he was off air. | ||
| But he comes back, and we get another follow-up on something that Alex has been zigzagging all over the place with. | ||
| Owen Schroyer is still in studio, and we get an update on the will-they-won't-they about the Attorney General. | ||
| We know Bill Barr was high-level CIA. | ||
| We know Bill Barr was brought in by H.W. Bush in the early 1990s, right before the clutches. | ||
| To cover up crimes. | ||
| We know who these people are. | ||
| And so he represents the older establishment that doesn't want to completely destroy America, but wants to carry out globalism that we kind of control. | ||
| The newer globalists are run by communist China. | ||
| They're the latter phase of it for the takedown of America. | ||
| So now the dialectic is, on the right you've got globalists that just don't want to destroy America. | ||
| They want us to have a seat at the new world order. | ||
| And then you've got the hyper-globalists that want all nation states totally destroyed. | ||
| So we have a paradigm of that false debate right there. | ||
| And Barr represents those that want to slowly salami slice America up in little pieces and digest it with enjoyment instead of a big, messy, burn it all down at once, because he understands that he'll probably get put in a gulag during that process as he sees as well. | ||
| So anybody that, you know, lionizes Barr, anybody that thinks it's all magically going to get fixed, I mean, this just proves all the cutard stuff is not accurate. | ||
| So he's mad at Bill Barr now. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| So now he can be magically aware of the fact that he came in during H.W. Bush. | ||
| He's high-level CIA. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| Surprise. | ||
| Also, he can be totally fine with him being exactly like the person that he describes as a demon, just like... | ||
| Gradual? | ||
| Yeah, slow demon. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So you're just fine with that? | ||
| Well, yeah. | ||
| The problem is speed. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| No, I get it. | ||
| The problem is pace. | ||
| I understand that, like, in some cases, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. | ||
| I understand that's possible. | ||
| But he still wants to kill everyone. | ||
| Salami slice. | ||
| Yeah, but that's, I feel like that's a deal breaker for me. | ||
| It should be. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Alright, good. | ||
| No, I have no rebuttal. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's ridiculous. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| For Alex to be like, he's a slow globalist. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| And so let's side with him because that's the dialectic where you should be like, fuck all of them. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| What are you doing? | ||
| Like, here's the thing, okay? | ||
| I like eco, right? | ||
| I don't like fascism. | ||
| I don't like... | ||
| them together? | ||
| And that's a deal breaker for me. | ||
| I'm not gonna be like, well, we gotta work with the eco-fascists for a while. | ||
| They like the, you know, they want to stop climate change too. | ||
| They like the eco stuff. | ||
| They want to slowly make us a fascist climate change aware place. | ||
| Surrounding the issues that I like. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Exactly. | |
| Like eco issues. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| Yes. | ||
| They want to exploit those to bring in the later part. | ||
| Right, right, right. | ||
| Bad. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| So Alex should be, at this point, like... | ||
| Completely against Bill Barr. | ||
| But he's not really. | ||
| Owen seems to be over it. | ||
| He seems pissed. | ||
| Yeah, what are you? | ||
| Um... | ||
| But this has to do with the fact that Bill Barr came out and said there aren't going to be indictments of people like Obama and all that. | ||
| Nothing's coming before the election. | ||
| Yeah, of course. | ||
| There's no October surprise or whatever. | ||
| And this has really turned off a lot of people in Alex's milieu. | ||
| Sure, sure. | ||
| So Alex starts getting into this weird headspace where he's just giving a rant and he's talking to Owen about how like, hey, hey, right now? | ||
| Big wave of nationalism. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| These patriots, huge. | ||
|
unidentified
|
A lot of them. | |
| Great. | ||
| A lot of good things are happening. | ||
| Nazis. | ||
| Next one will be big. | ||
| Even bigger. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| You think people, you think the wave we're in right now has been big, brother? | ||
| The wave coming is going to be 50 times bigger. | ||
| We're going to be sitting back in 10 years, 20 years, looking, we're still alive, looking back and feeling sorry for the New World Order. | ||
| I mean, they're going to get torn limb from limb, politically. | ||
| Yeah, I just think... | ||
| You think that little sack of filth, this sack of filth family can take us on? | ||
| Probably. | ||
| We eat him! | ||
| He doesn't eat us! | ||
| I eat you, boy! | ||
| You don't eat me! | ||
| You got that, you sack of filth? | ||
| Go ahead, I'm sorry. | ||
| I'm just really upset that Bill Barr isn't the patriot we hoped he would be, that's all. | ||
| Oh my God. | ||
| I'm just pissed off that... | ||
| Oh my God. | ||
| Oh my God. | ||
| How are... | ||
| You know he's not! | ||
| You already knew it! | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| How are we not just like... | ||
| Yeah, of course not. | ||
| Of course he wasn't. | ||
| We knew that before we... | ||
| Everyone knew that. | ||
| Everybody knew that. | ||
| How are you acting surprised? | ||
| Kind of have to. | ||
| So, thing that... | ||
| I think he was yelling about Bill Gates there. | ||
| From context clues, that was who he's going to eat. | ||
| That's what I was thinking. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I just found that to be so interestingly... | ||
|
unidentified
|
False. | |
| The yelling, I'm gonna eat you, boy! | ||
|
unidentified
|
And then Owen just being like, I'm disappointed Bill Barr's not a patriot. | |
| These two guys playing ping pong with incredibly different rackets. | ||
| It's kind of sad. | ||
| It's kind of sad. | ||
| Because that's like a quick encapsulation of why Owen's never going to do anything. | ||
| It's because Alex at least fakes it. | ||
| He comes with the, Bah! | ||
| You sack of filth! | ||
| I eat you! | ||
| He's phoning it in, but at least he's trying. | ||
| And Owen follows that up with, You know, I'm just disappointed. | ||
| Like, what are you doing? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm not mad. | |
| What are you doing, man? | ||
| You gotta get some electricity going. | ||
| Yeah, it's strange. | ||
| And, uh, yeah. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| It almost feels like Owen would like to work somewhere else eventually. | ||
| And so you don't want to yell about eating people. | ||
| Until you find wherever you're going to be. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And it's going to be nowhere. | ||
| That's why you should start yelling about eating people now. | ||
| Yeah, go ahead. | ||
| That's your lane, man. | ||
| Pull the trigger on eating people talk, Owen. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| You're not getting out of this lane, buddy. | ||
| So, Alex is trying to equivocate a little bit about Barr stuff. | ||
| And Owen, like I said, you just get the real sense that he is not into it. | ||
| He is pissed off that Bill Barr is not making a move. | ||
| And you can tell, too, because Alex is kind of needling him a little bit. | ||
| A little bit. | ||
| Like, saying Owen's mad. | ||
| Oh, because he thinks Owen actually believed it. | ||
| Well, maybe. | ||
| And because I think maybe off-air, Owen's complaining about this quite a bit. | ||
| And Alex is bringing that. | ||
| Because on-air, Owen's composed and what have you. | ||
| But I think that he might be more mad about this than he lets on. | ||
| Let's move away from being upset about Barr not being a purist. | ||
| He was involved in special corrupt technician teams internationally for George Herbert Walker Bush. | ||
| Look at it more as a defection to us that he's more and more like 80% working against him. | ||
| Now that's a bright spot. | ||
| I mean, the leopards don't change their spots, Bubba. | ||
| I just like to see treasonous tyrants put in jail. | ||
| But you need to understand this. | ||
| Yeah, don't we all? | ||
| I'll explain this when we come back. | ||
| We can debate it if you want. | ||
| I don't want to debate it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There's no debate. | |
| I want Obama to be arrested. | ||
| No, I hear you. | ||
| Well, I want more than that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, so I mean... | |
| That's all it is. | ||
| There's a dialectic to this, but listen, let's go to break and come back and break this down a little bit, okay? | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's never going to happen. | |
| I mean, I know. | ||
| If they arrest Obama, it makes him a victim. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Of course not. | |
| Okay, those guys, they wound up to kidnap Whitmer. | ||
| That makes her look better. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's an irrelevant thing. | |
| All right, all right, all right. | ||
| I got to plug your radio. | ||
| They tried to set us there. | ||
| Everything's great. | ||
| We're all left. | ||
| Hey, anyways, the point is that we need your financial support. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| That is so strange. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Anything. | ||
| Anything can turn into an ad pitch if you believe in yourself, Dan. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| If you just talk over Owen enough, it'll get there. | ||
| Wow, it does sound like Owen actually bought his own bullshit and Alex is sitting there like... | ||
| He bought bars shit. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Alex is just going like, on air, I have to tell you that there's good things about him. | ||
| Off air, I'll explain to you that we all knew this the whole time, Owen. | ||
| How old are you? | ||
| Are you 24? | ||
| Oh, God, you're so stupid. | ||
| Yeah, there is a vibe of like... | ||
| Get over it, kid. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| We've been here before, man. | ||
| We have to shine this up, and the best way we can do that is get a little polish. | ||
| The polish, the jar says he's 80% defected to us. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
| The polish, it's labeled meaningless isms. | ||
| Then we just shine the boot. | ||
| And lick it. | ||
| It is like that old, like, when you take a high-paying, high-powerful job, it's like, the first thing that you do is you, somebody comes in, like a mayor job, and it's like, come in and you just eat a bowl of shit. | ||
| I think this is from The Wire. | ||
| You know, and then the next person comes in and you eat a bigger bowl of shit, and the next person comes, like, this is feeling like Owen's first big bowl of shit, where he's like, I doubt it. | ||
| Oh my god, I have to do even this? | ||
| It's gonna get bigger? | ||
| Ugh. | ||
| Yeah, I don't know. | ||
| It's strange. | ||
| So, this next clip is just a mess. | ||
| Alex is complaining about immigrant populations coming to the United States. | ||
| Of course. | ||
| Particularly Somali Americans. | ||
| Is that because their abortions are powering his president? | ||
| No, it's because... | ||
| He believes that they all act as one, which is why the globalists are bringing them in to use them against him. | ||
| Gotcha. | ||
| Which doesn't at all sound like anti-Semitic propaganda from the past. | ||
| Maybe a little bit. | ||
| So we're not against Somalis. | ||
| We're against their tribal form of government and that their people are slaves to whoever the top Somalias. | ||
| And the Democrats bring them in and then have a voting bloc. | ||
| You ever wonder why you go to an airport like Seattle or Portland or Minneapolis, St. Paul, wherever, and it's like all Somalis? | ||
| Baggage? | ||
| Clerks? | ||
| And you're like, How'd they only hire one group? | ||
| Because the local chief says, anyone that's out of line, there's no unions, they'll kill you. | ||
| And then nothing's said. | ||
| That's why. | ||
| Poor Somalis. | ||
| It's a slave class they brought into America. | ||
| I feel so sorry for them. | ||
| I should tell you that there are unions of airport work. | ||
| One statistic I saw cited was 85% plus of United, American, the major airlines, they're all unionized. | ||
| I don't know what Alex is talking about other than just explicit xenophobia and racism. | ||
| Yeah, 100%. | ||
| Nonsensical. | ||
| First of all, it's not all Somali people who are working at airports, and if you screw up on the job, they don't take you out and kill you. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| I don't know what he's talking about. | ||
| Furthermore, how would you know if someone was Somali or not if you didn't talk to them? | ||
| Alex, did you ask them? | ||
| Did you hear an accent? | ||
| No, you just saw what? | ||
| I gotta go. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| So Alex takes some calls, and they're not good. | ||
| Fair. | ||
| Nothing really all that interesting. | ||
| A lot of people want to talk about the Bill Barr thing, and Alex is treading water a bit on that, but not in an interesting way. | ||
| Just sort of like, yeah, you know. | ||
| How did you guys not know that this was going to happen? | ||
| So he gets one caller, and this is really strange. | ||
| I had to look in to figure out who this guy was. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I want to tell y 'all to go to generalshepard.com, subscribe to my channel, General Shepard YouTube Communist Channel on YouTube, and Bart Fine. | |
| Hold on, is this the great General Shepard? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I am one of the three content providers that, not Netflix, but there's other scumbags news we did a hit piece on, and they didn't even give me a shout-out. | |
| Oh yeah, all hail General Shepard! | ||
| You guys have done a great job with the names. | ||
| They have trouble banning that name. | ||
| So you keep putting it up and it's doing a great job. | ||
| And I salute you, brother, and I thank you so much. | ||
| There he goes. | ||
| That was really confusing to me, so I had to check and figure out what it was. | ||
| This is just a dude who reposts Alex's content on YouTube. | ||
| Oh, okay. | ||
| The famous General Shepard who just reposts Alex's content. | ||
| Alex's videos, yeah. | ||
| Well, good on you, brother. | ||
| I would think that Alex would be furious about this, because it's good for Alex to have a lot of people posting his content, possibly, and getting low amounts of views. | ||
| That might help him as an advertising strategy. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| This dude is creating a YouTube channel where he's getting, like, 50,000 views on a video of one of Alex's shows. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's 50,000 people who are watching it there instead of band.video. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| That is people who are, like, you have now given a new place outside of your direct revenue stream. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| It seems like Alex should be mad about that, but I guess it's just all eyes. | ||
| Yeah, I mean... | ||
| And these videos are full of, like, Alex doing ad pitches and stuff, so... | ||
| Well, if he's getting 50,000 views and Alex is doing ad pitches, it's still, you know, Alex... | ||
| It's not like he's... | ||
| Because you can't even monetize it. | ||
| They're going to catch you before you get paid for it. | ||
| Yeah, he's not making money on the traffic on YouTube. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| And whatever could trickle down will eventually... | ||
| If anybody watches those videos and is like, hey, this guy sounds really cool, there's a decent chance they'll end up on Alex's site eventually. | ||
| Yeah, maybe. | ||
| Sooner or later. | ||
| I guess there's some sort of spiderweb strategy to it. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| This is going to be a truncated episode because... | ||
| For one, I'm fine, but I'm not 100%. | ||
| And then second, this is just not a show that is all that interesting. | ||
| Alex leaves in the middle of it for a time, and then he has Owen in studio, and they just bro out a bit. | ||
| Alex yells about eating Bill Gates. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Who doesn't want to, though? | ||
| Then Alex interviews a guy who did a prank. | ||
| Ooh, he did a prank? | ||
| I don't even remember what it was about. | ||
| I was listening to it, and it felt... | ||
| Incredibly stupid. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Like, alright. | ||
| It was a waste. | ||
| It was a waste. | ||
| Just talking about, like, the UN and Bill Barr. | ||
| Those were the topics that were covered. | ||
| That's so pathetic. | ||
| In a meaningful way. | ||
| Wanted to hear about the fly. | ||
| Wanted to hear about a rationalization for Trump. | ||
| Yeah, totally. | ||
| Here's why. | ||
| That would be interesting. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Because it would take some creativity, it would take some bending, some sort of matrix bullet time for Alex to figure out why the fly landing on Pence doesn't mean he's a demon, but it did for Obama. | ||
| Instead, you're just like, ah, fuck it, who cares? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's kind of disappointing. | ||
| That's bullshit. | ||
| It is. | ||
| Because here's the other and the larger problem with that kind of bullshit, and it exemplifies that problem, which is that... | ||
| If they ban abortion in the United States, you think the rich aren't going to be able to get treatments based on abortion elsewhere? | ||
| They're going to be able to go and get whatever treatments they fucking want. | ||
| And here in the United States, they're going to cut off all federal funding and they're going to make it as impossible as it can be to even research all of that shit. | ||
| And it's only going to hurt poor people and they know that and they're just exploiting the insane stuff that they fed into those idiots who are going to be hurt who vote for them to then destroy it and they don't care because they don't have to deal with the consequences of it. | ||
| Except for weird calls about how Bill Barr's disappointing. | ||
| Yeah, and those are... | ||
| Not that bad. | ||
| No. | ||
| So, we have one last caller who's actually on that topic about Bill Barr. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| And this is where it's just like this weird three-card Monty game that Alex is playing just is such a bummer. | ||
|
unidentified
|
How you doing, Alex? | |
| I wanted to talk about Barr real quick. | ||
| I never thought he would do anything. | ||
| He was an Iran-Contra holder. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Alex has been shining his shit for so long, even though he knew, like everybody did. | ||
| It's not like he just learned about Bill Barr's involvement in Iran-Contra. | ||
| No! | ||
| He was hired because he has experience covering up crimes! | ||
| That's why they hired him! | ||
| One of the things that I find the most interesting about the present day that's so full of not interesting things that Alex does... | ||
| Is this back and forth on William Barr? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| That is kind of interesting to me. | ||
| The way that Alex lashes out whenever there's bad news about Barr. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| And is now instantly aware. | ||
| This time it's Iran-Contra involvement. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Of course. | |
| Last time it was Barr's father being involved with Epstein. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| These things, he magically becomes aware of them and then forgets whenever Barr does something that is good. | ||
| It's almost as if he's trying to punish Barr. | ||
| For doing, as if he has some sort of control over Barr's actions. | ||
| Right, right. | ||
| I see it as... | ||
| And that seems ludicrous to me. | ||
| First of all, that it would be a real thing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| And then second, that Alex would think he could sway the Attorney General with talking shit on his radio show. | ||
| No, that insane nightmare would not be swayed by AJ. | ||
| Hard to imagine. | ||
| But the way I think of it is, I think this is his, like... | ||
| Trump is a shitty president. | ||
| He knows that. | ||
| Nobody doesn't know that who isn't insane. | ||
| So he is lashing out at Bill Barr the way that he wishes he could to Trump. | ||
| So he's sublimating all of the shit that he really wants to say to Trump into finally criticizing somebody. | ||
| And Bill Barr, he's always hated, so there you go. | ||
| Yeah, that could be. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah, probably. | ||
| I might be too psychoanalysis kind of going on right here, but on the other hand, I've listened to so much of him talk. | ||
| Yeah, I just wonder if there will be more clues in terms of him going back and forth on Barr more. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| I'm interested, but also it just seems like he said something good. | ||
| I'm aware of his bad. | ||
| Love him. | ||
| It said something I don't like. | ||
| Now he's bad. | ||
| I've known he was bad the whole time. | ||
| But I know eventually he's probably going to say something I like again. | ||
| So he's 80% turned to our side. | ||
| I can't just throw him away. | ||
| He's not going anywhere. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| That's not good. | ||
| No. | ||
| But here's the thing. | ||
| Here's the thing. | ||
| Here's what it is. | ||
| Here's what it is. | ||
| Here's what it really is. | ||
| Here's how you know Alex knew none of these indictments were going to come down whatsoever. | ||
| He's not at all trying to convince Barr to do it. | ||
| If he thought that it was actually a possibility, he would go on the show and be like, I'm talking to Bill Barr right now. | ||
| If you don't do this before the election, we're going to do the whole thing. | ||
| But on this one, he's just like, yeah, man! | ||
|
unidentified
|
Duh! | |
| Yeah, he would probably have one of his weirdo friends come on and talk about how they have inside information about the indictments or something. | ||
| William Binney would come on and say some shit. | ||
| Easy. | ||
| Yeah, you're probably right. | ||
| You're probably right that that is a fingerprint. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| So, anyway, Jordan, like I said, we'll be back on Wednesday. | ||
| Indeed we will. | ||
| And, again, I appreciate everybody being cool. | ||
| And, yeah. | ||
| Back. | ||
| Yeah, we will. | ||
| But until then, we have a website. | ||
| We do have a website. | ||
| It's knowledgefight.com. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| We're also on... | ||
| We are on Twitter. | ||
| It's at knowledge underscore fight and at go to bed Jordan. | ||
| We're also on Facebook. | ||
| We are on Facebook. | ||
| If you like to download the show, please write, leave a review, and then find a local charity or bail fund in your area and help out people doing God's work right now. | ||
| We'll be back, but until then, I'm Neo, I'm Leo, I'm DZX Clark, I am the Juiciest Ice Cube, and Daryl Rundis. | ||
| Andy in Kansas, you're on the air. | ||
| Thanks for holding. | ||

Hello, Alex. | |
| I'm a first-time caller. | ||

I'm a huge fan. | |
| I love your work. |
