Today, Dan and Jordan drop everything to check out Thursday's edition of the Alex Jones Show. In this installment, Alex has Steve Pieczenik on to "face the music." Alex's definition of "face the music" definitely seems to be outside the mainstream.

You're on the air.
Thanks for holding us.
unidentified
Hello, Alex.
I'm a first time caller.
I'm a huge fan.
jordan holmes
I love your room.
unidentified
Knowledge fight.
alex jones
Knowledgefight.com.
unidentified
I love you.
dan friesen
Hey everybody, welcome back to Knowledge Fight.
I'm Dan.
jordan holmes
I'm Jordan.
dan friesen
We're a couple dudes like to sit around, drink novelty beverages, and talk a little bit about Alex Jones.
jordan holmes
Oh, indeed we are, Dan.
dan friesen
Jordan.
unidentified
Dan!
dan friesen
What's up?
jordan holmes
Quick question for you.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
What's your bright spot today?
dan friesen
My bright spot today, Jordan, comes in the form of a cereal.
I decided that...
Okay, so I was making some choices on cereal, right?
Sitting there looking at these boxes.
And I see one that is a Dunkin' Donuts flavor.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
Mocha.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
Mocha coffee cereal.
unidentified
Pass.
jordan holmes
Hard pass.
dan friesen
I stared at it...
jordan holmes
I'd throw a spear at that box.
dan friesen
I stared at it for a while because it was like, well, I'm drawn in.
But there was another voice that was telling me...
Is this the novelty that's going to get you burned?
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
Is this too novel?
jordan holmes
Right, right, right.
dan friesen
Honestly, there was also one that was a caramel macchiato, and I said, that looks gross.
That is definitely going to burn me.
unidentified
I do appreciate finding where your limits are.
dan friesen
It's right between those two.
jordan holmes
Exactly.
We found that certain perfect gray zone.
dan friesen
Caramel Macchiato is too far.
That's the Mendoza line, as they say.
jordan holmes
Yes, absolutely.
dan friesen
Shout out to Marty.
Yeah, I got it.
It's great.
It's really good.
jordan holmes
Of course it is.
dan friesen
It's shockingly good.
jordan holmes
What does it taste like?
A donut?
dan friesen
No, it tastes like coffee.
jordan holmes
It tastes like coffee?
dan friesen
It tastes like a mocha coffee.
jordan holmes
Oh, I thought they were going to taste like a donut type thing.
dan friesen
No, and it's got like, basically the texture of it is there's like little marshmallows and then the cereal itself is basically just like Cocoa Puffs.
jordan holmes
Oh, okay.
dan friesen
It's just, I don't know.
jordan holmes
I mean, it's not good.
dan friesen
It's not good for you.
It's not great.
It's just, I expected it to be a real...
Dangerous proposition.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
It turned out to be great.
I enjoy it.
I recommend it.
jordan holmes
I imagine Dunkin' Donuts probably won't release a cereal based on my coffee flavor, which is black.
dan friesen
Just a burnt flavored.
jordan holmes
Yeah, burnt black.
A whole pot of it, too.
dan friesen
Yeah, a post is going to come out with a Folgers.
No cream.
I don't foresee that happening.
jordan holmes
Are you sick of drinking coffee?
Chew it!
dan friesen
This introduces an actual interesting problem.
jordan holmes
What's that?
dan friesen
That is that if you have a black coffee-flavored cereal, do you have milk with it?
jordan holmes
What do I drink with it?
dan friesen
Yes.
Do you put milk in?
I do not.
unidentified
You can't.
jordan holmes
It ruins the cereal.
dan friesen
So do you pour coffee in there?
jordan holmes
Absolutely.
dan friesen
Okay.
jordan holmes
What else would you drink?
Double brewed!
dan friesen
Silly.
Yes.
That's a red eye.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
No, that's cereal.
jordan holmes
That's right.
dan friesen
So what about you?
What's your bright spot?
jordan holmes
My bright spot, Dan, is the new album by Mad Lib, Sound Ancestors.
Very, very good.
dan friesen
Okay.
jordan holmes
Very, very good.
It's all music that was made by Mad Lib over the span of the past two years.
You know Mad Lib, right?
You know how all he does is just sit around and make music all the time?
dan friesen
I got that sense.
Yeah, I mean, I don't know him personally, but yeah, it seems like he likes music.
jordan holmes
He's one of my heroes just because he's like one of those guys who's just like, I know what I do, and I make music, and everything else can go fuck off.
dan friesen
Yeah, that's basically like me and looking at Alex Jones.
jordan holmes
And you see now why I'm drawn to you and people of your ilk.
dan friesen
Weird, committed people.
unidentified
Yes!
jordan holmes
Absolutely, because I'm a little lazy.
dan friesen
You're fine.
jordan holmes
Anyways, it was arranged by Fortet, and it's really, really, really, really good.
I love it so much.
unidentified
Yeah, absolutely.
dan friesen
I'll have to give that a spin.
I've been getting back on the bike a little bit, and I've been needing some more music to throw into the rotation.
I've been listening to a lot of Polish Ambassador.
jordan holmes
Okay, well...
dan friesen
I enjoy the Polish Ambassador.
jordan holmes
It will be a departure of style.
I will say that.
dan friesen
Maybe less than you think.
jordan holmes
I don't know.
We'll see.
dan friesen
Have you ever heard of The Polish Ambassador?
jordan holmes
I have heard of him.
I haven't listened to that in a while.
dan friesen
I enjoy...
There's an album called...
I don't even remember the name.
jordan holmes
How old is that again?
unidentified
Huh?
jordan holmes
What album are you talking about?
dan friesen
Let me actually pull it up here because I forget names of things really easily.
You know, it's like within the last five years or so, some of these albums.
The one I was listening to is him and Ayla Nereo.
She's a singer, like a vocalist.
They have a group called Wild Light.
And they have an album called The Tide that I was listening to.
It's good for a little bit of riding the bike, cardio stuff.
I'll check out that Mad Lib album too.
jordan holmes
I'll check it out.
dan friesen
Because otherwise I'm just going to end up drifting back to Carly Rae Jepsen.
Look, there's nothing wrong with mixing in a little bit of that.
jordan holmes
If you start riding your bike and listening to Sky, I'm never going to hear the end of it.
It's going to be trouble.
dan friesen
I generally, if I have that feeling, I only listen to...
To the Sami Zayn intro music.
Because that's great.
And then also Christian Ska.
Five Iron Frenzy or the OC Supertones.
Because those have a sentimental thing to them too.
I will rarely ever listen to other Ska stuff on the bike.
jordan holmes
If you listen to Christian Ska backwards, is that like running away from God?
Or...
How does that work?
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
Yeah?
dan friesen
Yeah.
unidentified
Okay.
dan friesen
I'll give it to you.
jordan holmes
Okay, fair.
dan friesen
So, Jordan, today we have an interesting episode to go over.
We're going to be talking about February 4th, 2021.
Blackjack!
jordan holmes
Blackjack!
dan friesen
So close.
jordan holmes
I was ready for it, too.
I was ready for it.
I'm so lazy.
dan friesen
Got some interesting stuff happening on this episode.
Requires our attention.
This is Thursday's episode, so...
You know, it's right hot off the presses.
jordan holmes
Yes, indeed.
dan friesen
And I had an interesting ride to get here, and we'll talk about that as we start the episode.
But first, let's give a little bit of a shout-out to the folks who've signed up and are supporting the show.
So first, Villain Jack.
Thank you so much.
You are now a policy wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
jordan holmes
Thanks, Villain Jack!
dan friesen
Thank you.
Next, Long-Winded.
Thank you so much.
You are now a policy wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much, Longwinded.
dan friesen
I feel a spiritual connection with anybody whose alias is named Longwinded, since I've been accused of being someone who uses about 15 times the words they need.
jordan holmes
No, you're an orator, sir.
You're not Longwinded.
dan friesen
That's a polite way of saying it.
Next, I guess murder hornets were just a filler episode.
You're now a policy wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much, yeah.
dan friesen
Next, I'm Camry, and I submit to the globalists.
Thank you so much.
You're now a policy wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much, Camry!
dan friesen
Next, Shmoo is Q. Thank you so much.
You're now a policy wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
dan friesen
We've solved the mystery.
jordan holmes
We figured it out.
It's Shmoo.
dan friesen
And then finally, I'd like to say thank you to a couple people who donated on Elevated Level.
We appreciate that very much.
So first, is a sandwich.
All one word.
Thank you so much.
You're now a technocrat.
And take my money, you filthy animals.
Thank you so much.
You are now a technocrat.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
Crikey, mate.
That's fantastic.
Have yourself a brew.
How's your 401k doing, bro?
All right, we got to go full tilt boogie 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 Infowar on you.
dan friesen
Thank you all so much.
jordan holmes
Yes, thank you very much.
dan friesen
I like the Is-a-Sandwich name, too, because I've gotten into some aggressive arguments in my time about whether things are or are not sandwiches.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I've heard of people doing that, and it disconcerts me that people would have strong feelings about sandwiches.
dan friesen
Well, it really introduces a philosophical question about what does...
Constitute a sandwich.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
Hot dog is a classic thing that will cause people to come to loggerheads.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
It is a divisive topic.
unidentified
Uh-huh.
dan friesen
But once you start talking about that, you enter the world of taco.
Is a taco a sandwich?
jordan holmes
Oh, my God.
dan friesen
I know.
See, that's what I'm saying.
jordan holmes
Oh, no.
dan friesen
Once you start getting into that, it's dangerous.
It's a slippery slope.
jordan holmes
I only trust the word of the Earl himself.
And he has not spoken regarding hot dogs, so I say that it's fine or it's not fine, it does not matter until he speaks.
dan friesen
Alright, well, we will go with that.
So, Jordan, today, this episode, like I said, we're doing February 4th, and my path to this was a challenge, because I was trying to get myself really motivated to, you know...
Talk about Alex on Monday.
unidentified
From Monday, we're going to cover the week.
dan friesen
And then he started talking like this.
I just can't handle it.
I just can't handle it.
alex jones
And it's global government.
And China's open for business.
It's designed to transfer all of the resources and jobs overseas.
And the public's got to go into a conscious mode.
Everybody gets really unconscious, just kind of accepts what's coming at them.
Like, I'm not mad at the crew.
I love them to death, but I said, if my collar's ever sticking up, you've got to tell me on air.
Open your eyes, look for problems.
If I've got a booger hanging out of my nose, tell me.
But they won't do it.
They're good people.
They're just in a trance.
My collar was sticking straight up.
See, I'm not mad at them.
It's a teaching moment.
The globalists are coming with deadly vaccines that don't work, permanent lockdowns, and everybody's just kind of taking it.
They're just kind of taking it.
Can't take it anymore.
You got to get into conscious mode.
See, when you're not conscious, you're basically dying.
dan friesen
And your collar's up.
Yeah, I was listening to that.
Wow.
This is so dumb.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
He's basically having an HR meeting where he's scolding the crew for not telling him that his collar was up, but in the guise of talking about how when you're unconscious, the globalist can pull stuff off.
jordan holmes
It does seem like he's turning what is a very petty...
You guys should know I am incapable of basic hygiene.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
And take care of me.
dan friesen
Tell them...
jordan holmes
Into a global problem.
dan friesen
Talk to your staff during the breaks.
Make your points on air.
I just was listening to that.
I was like, this is so stupid.
I can't even.
jordan holmes
Wild.
dan friesen
Yeah, it felt like walking through knee-deep mud listening to this shit.
jordan holmes
I don't need it.
dan friesen
And so I decided, you know, like maybe I'll go and try to find some Project Camelot.
unidentified
Indeed.
dan friesen
Stuff to take a break with.
No good.
Not great.
So we decided we're going to do a time travel episode.
Go back to the past.
That was the plan?
jordan holmes
At our now daily morning meetings?
dan friesen
I listened to an episode from 2011, and I found Alex trying to get really excited about Bilderberg, and it made sense.
Everything checked out.
He was really excited about this Swiss Holocaust denier that he didn't realize was a Holocaust denier.
It was a lot of fun.
We were going to have fun with that, but then the bat signal went up.
unidentified
Oh, I know.
dan friesen
Jordan, the bat signal.
jordan holmes
I heard.
unidentified
I heard.
alex jones
It's Thursday, February 4th.
The year is 2021.
And Dr. Steve Pachenik is going to face the music.
We really appreciate him.
He has a lot of courage.
Coming up in hour number two.
Stay with us.
dan friesen
That is catnip.
jordan holmes
Yeah, there's nothing we can do.
unidentified
Nope.
dan friesen
There are certain times in doing this show where you just got to resign yourself to like, well, here's what happens.
Steve's back on after saying Trump will still be president after January 20th or I'll eat my hat, essentially.
If he's not president, then I'll never come on your show again.
unidentified
But if I am, you got to hire me.
jordan holmes
So no one is happy.
dan friesen
I was interested.
jordan holmes
Yes.
I'm interested to see what kind of big swing is going on here.
dan friesen
Steve is a lunatic, and he...
I don't know, man.
You just never know what to expect.
And this...
jordan holmes
I'm hoping for a double down.
I'm hoping for him to come right out and say it.
Trump is still president.
dan friesen
That would be a swing.
I'm going to say, completely unrelated to what you want.
Don't take this as a sign whether that is or is not going to happen.
I'll say that I was a little underwhelmed by this.
Interview on both of their parts.
I was a little underwhelmed by Alex and by Steve, although there is some hilarious stuff that happens.
But the two of them should have been screaming at each other.
unidentified
Yeah, absolutely.
jordan holmes
This should have been a knockdown, drag-out fucking, you have been lying to me since the beginning, and then Stevie B's been like, of course I've been lying to you!
You're a moron!
dan friesen
It's nuts that Steve agreed to do it.
jordan holmes
Oh, of course he did.
He doesn't give a fuck.
He does not give one fuck.
dan friesen
It's nuts that Alex clearly doesn't have more of a plan.
jordan holmes
That is obvious, expected, and still insane.
dan friesen
It's just outrageous.
So, Alex, that's in the second hour.
He's got to get to some other news in the first hour.
alex jones
See, these are liars.
In a moment, I'm going to show you AOC caught in the lie we talked about a few days ago.
I said, wait a minute.
Look up where her office is.
She's a junior member of the house.
And I've actually been there while she was a congresswoman and saw her scurrying around the halls about a year and a half ago.
She wasn't even in the damn Capitol!
I mean, I know we talked about it a few days ago, but now it's even on Fox News.
This woman is a congenital liar.
We're going to get to that here in a moment, but first, my dad launched a new company about a year and a half ago and developed his own amazing toothpaste.
unidentified
Wild.
dan friesen
Good stuff.
jordan holmes
All right.
unidentified
Hey!
dan friesen
She didn't claim to have been in the Capitol building, but her building itself was also evacuated.
I just...
I don't know.
I understand that the right wing really desperately needs to try and minimize the human trauma that was experienced by the people who were the victims of the consequences of their rhetoric.
unidentified
Sure!
jordan holmes
Sure, we tried to get you guys murdered, but you're lying about it.
dan friesen
Yeah, I understand why people like Candace Owens and Jack Posobiec are really pushing these things hard, and Alex is now jumping on this as well.
I get it.
It's just dumb.
It's awful to see.
Denying her experience is just...
jordan holmes
Yeah, no, it's one of the more fucked up things I can think of.
From an empathetic position.
If I put myself in their shoes, I imagine I too would scramble because I would not want to reckon with the idea that I am essentially an attempted murder.
dan friesen
Well, you gotta...
jordan holmes
But I don't think that they have...
I think they're just basically psychopaths and they're like, well, this is what we gotta do to protect the grift, not like, I don't care if she was murdered.
dan friesen
I think part of it is protecting the grift, but then also I think a part of it is what...
You know, it's something that is so essential to a lot of these narratives is the...
Inability or the desire not to feel bad about anything.
And that would penetrate that bubble pretty hard.
Recognizing that these are human consequences of these conspiracy theories and this bullshit that gets peddled.
And to recognize that would probably introduce some bad feelings.
And, you know, that's not in their interest.
jordan holmes
No, that would hurt.
Yeah, they don't like that.
dan friesen
So Alex does that AOC shit, and then he flips into an ad, and he does an entire segment that's just ads.
The entire second segment of the show is ads.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
And it's just unbelievable.
jordan holmes
Buy my dad's toothpaste so I can hide more money in his company.
dan friesen
It's a drag.
It almost feels like Alex thinks that announcing that Steve's going to be on the show is going to somehow boost ratings, and then he does an extended commercial to try and get the message out to as many people as he can.
Could be.
Then he gets back to teasing the Steve interview.
alex jones
And Dr. Steve Pachenik, we have the clip, we'll play it here in a few minutes, has the courage to come back on the show.
After coming on for 19 years and saying about 95% of what he's predicted has come true, what he predicted here a month ago before January 20th did not come true.
And he's going to give us his take on it.
I can't wait to talk to him.
dan friesen
Can't wait.
Can't wait.
jordan holmes
Ah, man.
dan friesen
But see, here's the thing that I take issue with with a comment like that.
What Alex is doing is he's framing Steve's comments as predictions.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
They shouldn't be predictions.
No, he said he proved them.
Yes.
Steve's been saying he's involved in things.
jordan holmes
He's been saying he did it.
He's not predicting something will happen.
dan friesen
No.
Yeah, it would be a completely different show, and people wouldn't take it as seriously if you were just like, hey, I don't know anything, I'm just getting, oh, here's what I think is gonna happen.
No, Steve pretends that he's got, like, teams of intelligence agents in the field.
jordan holmes
What's the point of having a guy who's an expert with all of his connections if you're just gonna ask him for random ass predictions?
dan friesen
Yeah, when he says, I'm involved in this shit.
Then, you know, your brain is like, oh, he must be talking about something.
If he just says, I predict this is going to happen, you can start to recognize, oh, his predictions have a terrible batting average.
jordan holmes
He's not doing well.
dan friesen
I guess I won't take those predictions that seriously anymore.
jordan holmes
Might be a bad idea.
dan friesen
Yeah, it's experienced completely different to a listener when you present it as like, I did this, I put QR codes on all the ballots.
jordan holmes
So insane.
dan friesen
Blockchain!
jordan holmes
You know what?
What I don't understand about Alex is that I feel like he's missing that golden opportunity of, like, when you can cut ties with one of these assholes, it's like getting rid of...
It's like when you're playing Go Fish or Old Maid or whatever it is, where you can, like...
Oh, as I'm discarding this card, I am not losing a card.
I am giving the bad thing away, you know?
Like, when you cut ties with the Stevie Peas, you can throw so many loaded narratives on him.
Like, just toss all the shit that you don't want anymore out.
dan friesen
Steve did Sandy Hook.
jordan holmes
Exactly!
Be like, no, no, no, that was all Steve's idea.
Like, go all in.
Land it all on him.
Don't half-ass it.
dan friesen
And you wouldn't be lying, for the most part.
Steve did influence him.
jordan holmes
Yeah, exactly!
dan friesen
To all these negative things.
jordan holmes
Yeah, absolutely.
dan friesen
I don't know.
I think that Steve, because of Alex, has built up his own organic fan base, and now that is a threat to Alex.
But if he turns on Steve too hard, Steve's audience will turn on Alex.
jordan holmes
What a goddamn moron.
unidentified
Yep.
dan friesen
They basically are just, like, pointing guns at each other.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
They're just sitting there like, all right, we're at an impasse.
unidentified
Yes, sir!
dan friesen
And that seems to be a theme of Alex.
He just builds up these no-win situations with these lunatics.
And then, here we are.
jordan holmes
Is there a man who is more dedicated to hoisting himself upon his own petards?
dan friesen
It seems to work.
I mean, it's profitable.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that's fair.
dan friesen
Also, I forgot about this.
I forgot.
We need to give a shout-out to someone whose birthday it is.
Alexis sent an email and told us that Sean...
Celebrating a birthday.
jordan holmes
Oh, happy birthday, Sean.
dan friesen
And so, Sean, I just wanted to give you a little bit of a happy birthday message.
jordan holmes
Happy birthday, Sean.
dan friesen
Many more.
Isn't that what they do?
Birthdays?
jordan holmes
No, it is not.
dan friesen
Okay.
jordan holmes
Nobody wishes you more birthdays.
Then you would die sooner.
dan friesen
No, they don't want you to have no more birthdays.
jordan holmes
Yeah, no, they want you to have no more birthdays.
dan friesen
Oh, they want you to have more.
A ton of them.
jordan holmes
Ah, but the more birthdays you have, the closer you are to death.
dan friesen
No, because if you have more, it's further off.
Each one of them represents a year.
jordan holmes
All right.
But then you're just saying I want you to race closer and closer to your end.
dan friesen
Jordan, you're literally making no sense.
jordan holmes
I'm sorry.
dan friesen
And that's fitting.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
Because neither does Alex.
Fair.
unidentified
He...
dan friesen
All right.
Here's the bottom line.
jordan holmes
Let's hear the bottom line.
dan friesen
Most of the first hour is spent with Alex talking disgustingly and grotesquely about child abuse.
And we're not going to listen to any of that.
unidentified
Good.
dan friesen
And I have my reasons for it.
And if anybody takes issue with that, I will say that we've covered some of that stuff in the past.
It doesn't add anything to demonstrate these things over and over again.
And I believe that the way that Alex carries himself has the potential to be re-traumatizing to people.
and I don't want to be a part of bringing that to our audience, and I want no part of it.
If you think that is an inappropriate decision on my part, I would encourage you to start your own Alex Jones podcast.
jordan holmes
We've had, how many times has he been on the show saying that shit?
Go back and listen to it.
He's saying the same shit.
dan friesen
It happens a lot.
jordan holmes
And it's disgusting.
dan friesen
It happens a lot.
And this was a particularly grotesque example of it.
And I only have two clips that aren't actually about that, but are about little things that he's saying on the side of those conversations that are kind of stupid.
And maybe a little bit interesting.
The first one is about cannibalism.
alex jones
There are a lot of currencies on the planet that the establishment operates under.
There's cash, there's digital money, there's the derivatives, there's art, there's drugs.
There's sex, there's information, and there is all sorts of weird decadent pleasures.
I mean, a big one is eating dead bodies.
A lot of establishment people really like to eat human flesh.
jordan holmes
Sure.
alex jones
And they get them from morgues and stuff with dead kids and people.
jordan holmes
Naturally.
alex jones
And that's something that's well known.
jordan holmes
I've seen Blade.
alex jones
My dad told me all about this when I was a kid, and then later I saw it come out in the news.
dan friesen
That's how I know this is nonsense.
Wow.
Whenever you're Alex Jones, you're like, I'm a big serious expert on the New World Order.
unidentified
My dad told me people get eaten!
My dad said one time that a doctor ate a person!
dan friesen
I would say that if you want to be taken seriously, don't say it that way.
If you can prove these claims...
You don't need to say my dad told me.
jordan holmes
No, when I was little, I discovered that while you were sleeping, if you had lost a tooth, someone will break into your home and brutally rip it from beneath your pillow.
Will they leave something behind?
I don't know.
But I read it in the news later on in life.
It's been confirmed.
dan friesen
Yeah.
So, Alex Jones' dad's scary bedtime story is notwithstanding.
jordan holmes
Every detail.
The more we learn about his dad.
dan friesen
Yeah.
That dude is a fucked up dude.
jordan holmes
He fucked up Alex so bad.
He's a fucked up dude.
dan friesen
Yeah.
So, the other clip that Alex has here is, you know, whenever you, like, people get rich, they start to need more exciting things.
The mundane pleasures of life sometimes.
You know, they get sports cars and drive fast.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it's an escalation problem.
The moment you've achieved your dream, now you have to find something else to achieve.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
Alex discusses this a little bit.
And I should tell you this, this is a family show.
alex jones
That's the type of stuff going on where these people have all the money, all the power, and so they just do more and more degenerate stuff.
I mean, it's very popular for establishment folks to just eat big bowls of fresh feces right out of a woman's rear end.
And, you know, I'm not trying to be gross here, folks.
I just want you to know what we're up against and what we're dealing with.
dan friesen
Okay.
All right, Alex.
Okay.
Sure.
Fine.
I don't know.
unidentified
Okay.
jordan holmes
So, what do you...
Here's what I saw.
I saw...
Nancy Pelosi, sitting at a desk much like ours.
You're fairly close to me.
If you were to stand up, turn around, and just start shitting into a bowl, I could grab a spoon and just eat as you shit out of it.
That's what I saw Nancy Pelosi doing.
Is that what you...
dan friesen
I didn't have any mental image except for Alex, just like his brain, trying to be like, what can I say that's gross?
jordan holmes
Yeah, exactly.
dan friesen
Like, I mean, look, humans are not good eating from a nutritional standpoint.
It doesn't make sense for people to eat humans.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
And there's also nutritional issues with eating feces.
It's not...
jordan holmes
I mean, both are great for just purely pleasurable things.
dan friesen
No, they're not.
jordan holmes
You know, it's like, no, no, no.
You know, sometimes I order Chinese food and I know it's not maybe the most healthy decision, but it's about the pleasure of eating it, man.
I imagine the same thing is true for...
Eating shit coming out of a woman.
dan friesen
That seems like a good way to get oral fecal transmitted conditions.
jordan holmes
Yeah, for the pleasure of it.
dan friesen
Or, I mean, eating humans.
There's a lot of conditions you can come down from with that.
Well, they wash them first.
Okay, fine.
You know, this is all stupid.
Alex gets around to the Steve interview.
alex jones
Sure.
dan friesen
And he's sort of, you know, easing in to the introduction.
alex jones
Coming to you live from the ATX, broadcasting worldwide.
I'm not going to try to rehabilitate Dr. Steve Chinook here on air in some people's eyes, but he did leave the CFR and say 9-11 was an inside job and called the real perpetrators out that were actually involved orchestrating it.
I'm not saying radical Islam doesn't exist.
And he's done a lot of other good things.
Wasn't for the Syrian war, supported Trump, trying to get troops out.
But I thought he was buying into the whole Q8 Chan deal.
dan friesen
Here is a problem for me.
If you believe that he's an expert inside person, he should not be at all persuaded by Q stuff.
If you have for a moment the inclination to think that Steve Pchenik is getting influenced by stuff on a message board, you should very seriously question whether or not you should take anything he's saying seriously.
jordan holmes
He is supposed to be behind the scenes.
Which would be behind the PSYOP that you have argued Q must be.
So how could someone behind the scenes, unless you're saying that he behind the scenes was tricked by the other behind the scenes people through Q. In which case, what are you doing letting him behind the scenes if he's going to get tricked by other people behind the scenes?
You stay behind the scenes, man!
dan friesen
This PSYOP that I've started is too good.
It's tricked even me.
jordan holmes
Yes, exactly.
Get the fuck out of here.
dan friesen
So, Alex is gracious, and he thanks Steve for coming back, and my note on this is just like, why are they doing this?
Yeah, why?
alex jones
And so, I appreciate Steve Pachinnik coming on and having the courage after he was on.
Well, let's punch that up.
Is this Steve Pachinnik's last interview?
Because I'll give you the date.
I forget the date.
dan friesen
Why?
I don't understand.
This doesn't serve anyone's interests.
Steve is gonna have to go even further out on a limb in order to retain any sense of credibility at all.
Alex is gonna have to either confront somebody who he clearly doesn't have the fortitude to confront, or he's gonna have to get persuaded by Steve to wait and see.
jordan holmes
Yep.
dan friesen
Or whatever.
This is a no-win situation for anybody.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
Except for Steve, because he's got nothing to lose.
jordan holmes
Right.
unidentified
Ugh.
jordan holmes
Alex's insistence on not preparing coming through immediately with the, I don't even remember what date it was that he promised me that the world would be, oh my god.
dan friesen
Yeah.
So, I think Steve sucks, and I think he's a real liar and a menace.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
But, that being said, I do think that the first question that Alex asks is unfair.
Okay.
I do think this is not the way.
jordan holmes
Even there.
dan friesen
I do think this is not how you want to start an interview.
alex jones
So, Steve Pachenik, tell us, was it all a big joke?
Are you in with the Q guys?
Were you part of the setup?
Or were you really believing this was going to happen?
We really appreciate you coming on.
steve pieczenik
Number one, I enjoy coming on the show.
Number two, what I do resent is the ad hominem comments coming from here.
Disgusting viewers who think that I lied or in some way gave them false promises.
dan friesen
Tables turned on you in a second, Alex.
Go fuck yourself.
jordan holmes
You don't get to do this.
You do not.
dan friesen
Alex tries to frame the interview with three options for Steve to pick that are all bad.
Steve says, I like coming on your show.
What I'd like to say is that your disgusting audience is a bunch of assholes who keep saying bad things about me.
jordan holmes
Wild.
So pathetic.
dan friesen
Yeah, Steve takes control.
jordan holmes
Alex has no shot.
Just none.
dan friesen
You can see it even immediately.
It's not even in over your head.
jordan holmes
You don't have the werewolf.
Here's what you do whenever somebody does that.
One, that is a shitty opening question, but also, well-deserved.
Fuck you, Steve.
And if Steve comes back with, I don't appreciate, you say, hey.
Fuck you, Steve!
You fucking lied!
dan friesen
I would suggest that a better question is not like three possibilities that are all things he can't possibly accept.
jordan holmes
Right, of course.
dan friesen
A more open-ended question that is leading to the...
What the fuck is wrong with you, man?
jordan holmes
Yes.
dan friesen
That would be a better opening question.
jordan holmes
If you are wise, you will allow Steve to hang himself.
dan friesen
Right.
If you are someone who maybe prepares, you'd have a question that guides you towards where you want to go, as opposed to one that the person you're talking to can completely reject because it's a trap.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
He just ignores it.
jordan holmes
No, I mean, of all the so simple judo principles to be demonstrated right here, Alex attacks with overwhelming force, and Steve just gets out of the way.
dan friesen
Yeah.
It's not hard.
And then, once Alex's force has gone past him, he turns around and attacks them from the back.
steve pieczenik
I came on the show again to basically say to you, I will double down on the military crew.
And the reason I'm doubling down is that right now it's taking more time and I don't directly deal with military operatives as I had in the past when I went overseas.
So I still have faith in my cyber command.
I have faith in my special forces.
I have faith in the generals.
dan friesen
You don't have Special Forces teams.
jordan holmes
Oh.
I was right.
I was right.
He did double down.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
That is what I was expecting.
dan friesen
Yeah.
unidentified
Yep.
dan friesen
It's maybe not the...
It's disappointing.
Yeah.
jordan holmes
I wanted a bigger swing.
dan friesen
Yeah.
It's not as big a swing as you'd hope, but it is cool.
I mean, in terms of like, now what are you going to do, Alex?
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Yeah.
Steve was wrong.
He came back, and now he's telling you he was right.
unidentified
Yep.
jordan holmes
You almost could have predicted this coming, seeing as how he has had no interest in whether or not reality conforms to his bullshit anyways.
dan friesen
Yeah, Steve is absolutely gaslighting the shit out of you.
jordan holmes
Why would you imagine that he would become contrite and be like, oh, I'm sorry for lying to you.
Also, you're not even getting to the underlying emotional problem, which is that he told you he has been using you.
dan friesen
Yeah, yeah.
unidentified
To your face!
dan friesen
They don't get into that, surprisingly.
Unsurprisingly.
So everything is going according to Trump's plan, apparently.
And only one person in the media really understands and gets this subtle thing that's going on, and that is that Trump is being quiet.
And maybe that's because he's got an impeachment trial coming up and he's been kicked off all social media.
jordan holmes
Could be.
dan friesen
But one person gets it.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
This should piss off Alex, but I think he's distracted.
steve pieczenik
So what I'm saying to you right now is...
What you're seeing happening is exactly what Trump wanted to happen.
He's exposing.
Now, you've got to remember one thing I've said about Trump.
He never fails at what he does.
And by the way, he has remained silent.
Only one individual picked that up repeatedly, and that's Bill Maher of HBO.
He hit it right on the head.
Why is Trump silent when in his history...
He has never been silent.
dan friesen
Don't you fucking tell me that Bill Maher is insightful.
Alex's big enemy.
jordan holmes
It's just...
You know who they watch all the time by how much they reference how much they hate them.
And then every time, because you watch Bill Maher all the time so you can hate him, eventually he says something where you're like, you know what, this Bill Maher guy might be right.
Because you guys are fucking children.
You're toddlers.
It's just two seconds of like, oh, I hate him.
I love him.
dan friesen
I'm not going to say that this person doesn't exist, but I don't know anyone I like who likes Bill Maher.
unidentified
Ooh, I don't know anyone I like who likes Bill Maher either.
dan friesen
That person may exist, and I just don't know it, and I wouldn't judge them for it.
But the only people I have any evidence watch Bill Maher are people tweeting stuff.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And Alex and his guests.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that does sound right.
dan friesen
All of them watch Bill Maher.
jordan holmes
Is Bill Maher just...
Maybe that's why he's going so far with the racist right nonsense.
It's just he's like, oh, I guess the only people who watch my show are right-wing Nazis.
dan friesen
He's Dennis Millering.
jordan holmes
He might be Dennis Millering in front of our eyes!
God damn it.
unidentified
Oh, boy.
jordan holmes
Shit.
dan friesen
Equally unfunny.
Trump, his whole plan, right, is to let Biden show his ass.
He's going to show how incompetent he is.
And this is where Steve begins to drift into possible anti-Semitism.
steve pieczenik
He's showing you how corrupt and stupid Biden is.
I said to you before, for years, Biden will pick those people who are incompetent and corrupt.
And primarily, they were Jewish.
I have a synagogue going on there with Blanken, with all kinds of people.
I've got 11 Jews in there, all of whom I've never met before, some of whom I have a lot of things in common, but they're all incompetent.
dan friesen
Oh boy.
Seems to really be hammering on the point that people are Jewish.
jordan holmes
Wow!
I wouldn't have even thought of that as something to bring up unless I were, say, a Nazi.
dan friesen
It's so weird the way he speaks, too.
Just that, like, I've got these people in the government.
jordan holmes
I think he just designs trading card decks.
I genuinely think that he just draws like Magic the Gathering cards and they have like Nancy Pelosi and Deep State Operative written on them and he just tosses them out like a tarot deck.
dan friesen
I begin to wonder if he's not like severely disturbed.
Like, we talk about him, and I think that one of the reasons that he may not come off as that is because he's in the Infowars sphere.
jordan holmes
Sure, sure.
dan friesen
And Alex portrays him as, like, this really serious character, and it's really funny when he snips at Alex.
But there is a part of me that, you know, has to wrestle with, like, does he actually think that he's running, like...
Special operations teams.
Does he think that he has sway within the government and he's got these 11 Jewish people who he's never met working in various offices and that's a problem for him personally?
jordan holmes
I don't know.
His wife laughing in the background of that clip makes me really think that he's aware.
dan friesen
She laughs about some other stuff too.
jordan holmes
Maybe she's on the same boat.
She's in the front seat of whatever boat's...
dan friesen
If so, she's not so thrilled with the Jewish people either.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that sounds right.
steve pieczenik
And we have one moron from the National Security Council and the State Department, which is run by Blanken.
And Wendy Sherman, I got a Jew on top there who's never been in the military.
unidentified
What?
steve pieczenik
Hey Doc, we've got a whole hour here.
alex jones
We've got 45 minutes left, but I've got to unpack all this.
dan friesen
I think Alex cut him off there because he realized this is going too much.
jordan holmes
This is too much.
No, no, no, no.
dan friesen
You can't keep doing this.
jordan holmes
Uh-uh.
Don't say I got a Jew on top ever!
dan friesen
Ever!
alex jones
Outrageous.
dan friesen
What?
Outrageous.
Yeah.
So, in this next clip, they get to the heart of the matter, which I think that you're actually more correct, that the heart of the matter is that Steve revealed that he's been manipulating Alex.
Failing getting into that, because they don't.
The issue is that he said that Trump is still going to be president after January 20th.
alex jones
Sure.
dan friesen
They get a little bit snippy.
Alex gets snippy with Steve about this.
alex jones
Let's just go back.
Let's just go with your scenario.
They are doing this anti-racism stand-down.
unidentified
Let's talk about it.
alex jones
Let's talk about it.
Because they are trying to purge the military right now.
They're saying they think there's a military coup.
You're saying there's a military coup.
What's going on there?
steve pieczenik
I just said it to you.
Listen, Alex.
unidentified
Listen.
steve pieczenik
I'm telling you.
alex jones
Listen, Trump's going to get inaugurated on the 20th.
I'm saying let's unpack that first.
steve pieczenik
I didn't say he was going to get inaugurated.
I didn't say he was going to get inaugurated on the 20th.
I never said that.
I said that he would still be president of the United States.
What's going on in Mar-a-Lago?
You tell me.
dan friesen
Oh, boy.
jordan holmes
Oh, no.
You fucking psycho.
dan friesen
Oh, no.
jordan holmes
That is you.
You're not going to win.
Hang up!
Hang up right there.
dan friesen
Steve thinks Trump is still president.
jordan holmes
Of course he does.
What's going on in Mar-a-Lago, Dan?
dan friesen
The office of the former president, man.
jordan holmes
Exactly.
That's what's going on in Mar-a-Lago.
dan friesen
Former's in the name.
jordan holmes
You gotta just get out of here.
Just hang up right then and there and be like, this guy is out.
dan friesen
Yeah.
If I were Alex, I'd be like...
No.
jordan holmes
Nah.
dan friesen
Can't let you have that.
jordan holmes
You don't get to be angry at me right now, sir.
You don't get to do that.
You don't understand what's happening here.
dan friesen
Yeah, so Alex, I guess, he just has to put up with Steve saying, like, I didn't say he was going to get inaugurated.
I say he'd still be president, and I believe that he still is.
jordan holmes
God damn.
dan friesen
So Alex tries to be a dick.
He tries to reclaim some sort of, I don't know, authority in the conversation.
It doesn't really work.
And then we find out that Steve also hates Mormons, which we already knew that.
alex jones
Well, then talk to us because you're so smart.
Like you said, we haven't been in the military like you, but it's a magical level when you get there.
Tell us then what's going on in your view.
steve pieczenik
I'm just telling you right now.
I said it's part of Sun Tzu.
You understand, Alex, what Sun Tzu is.
You allow the enemy to expose all of the faults that they have without intervening.
And he's showing it to you.
The Republican Party, dead.
McConnell, a total wastrel, a corrupt individual.
Mitt Romney, corrupt Mormon.
He reminds me of the days of the Massacre of Meadows that the Mormons did when they slaughtered Christians.
He was warned, and the Mormons were warned to take care of him, and they didn't do it.
unidentified
What?
jordan holmes
Okay.
All right.
dan friesen
He warned the Mormons.
jordan holmes
Who warned the Mormons?
dan friesen
It's got to be Steve.
Steve must have.
jordan holmes
Listen, I warned the Mormons.
dan friesen
Come get your boy.
jordan holmes
Come get your boy.
You don't want any more massacres on your hands.
dan friesen
Holy shit.
jordan holmes
Wild.
dan friesen
Also, interesting to recall that Steve also said that the Pope got arrested like a year ago.
jordan holmes
Yeah, but that one was true.
dan friesen
So, at the beginning of this interview, the first way that Steve claimed authority was to say, like, hey, your audience has been throwing ad hominems around.
You're a disgusting audience.
jordan holmes
Yeah, you're a liar, Steve.
dan friesen
A little bit later, Alex realizes that he'd called the audience disgusting.
jordan holmes
There you go.
alex jones
Was that a Freudian slip?
Your disgusting audience?
Or you mean some people that said disgusting things about you?
Because most of the audience doesn't hate you.
jordan holmes
Unfortunately.
steve pieczenik
Honestly, I don't even read most of the comments.
Let me be very frank.
I'm not interested in what your audience says or doesn't say.
I don't really listen to it.
alex jones
Well, you said it.
You said it.
steve pieczenik
Listen to me, Alex.
You want me on the show?
unidentified
Cool it.
steve pieczenik
I don't even know who Q is.
I don't read that nonsense.
I have nothing to do with Q or anybody else.
Other than you, you're the only show I go on.
dan friesen
This is...
This is outrageous.
jordan holmes
Oh, man.
Don't do this interview.
dan friesen
This is so dumb.
jordan holmes
Oh, God.
dan friesen
There's no point to this except for Steve to just be mean and see what he can get away with.
jordan holmes
No, the only reason you would do this interview if you're Alex is so you can throw away your baggage on Steve.
dan friesen
Well, you'd do that or you'd recognize that, like, he does bring up repeatedly that their last interview got a lot of traffic.
And the one where Steve was on with Owen saying that the election was a sting operation.
jordan holmes
Sure, sure, sure.
dan friesen
That got a lot of traffic, and so I think that Alex has that motivation, like an attention economy type of motivation.
jordan holmes
Because of course he does.
dan friesen
Yeah.
And so Alex will take a little bit of this if it means a couple hundred thousand views more.
jordan holmes
That's true.
dan friesen
In theory.
jordan holmes
Yeah, but I would imagine he would get a lot of views if you forced Steve to hang up on you.
dan friesen
True.
unidentified
Ooh.
dan friesen
Or if you just were like, Steve, you're making everything up.
jordan holmes
Steve, you're a fucking liar.
Tell me more about that.
Steve, have you always been a psychopathic liar?
dan friesen
Oh, no, no, no, back to the center.
You're a liar.
jordan holmes
Yeah, Steve, hold on.
No, no, no, I understand.
I will listen to you, but only on the answer to the question, why are you such a fucking liar, Steve?
dan friesen
Oh, Steve, you don't give a shit about what my audience thinks?
Great.
Why are you such a liar?
jordan holmes
Why are you such a fucking liar?
dan friesen
Stay on point.
jordan holmes
Yeah, get in there.
dan friesen
And because Alex can't do that, Steve's just running circles around him.
alex jones
You specifically, let's just get this straight, because people understand if you were wrong about timing or whatever, you legitimately thought, Trump would end up being sworn in on the 20th.
You said he's gonna be the president.
steve pieczenik
I didn't say he'd be on the 20th.
He is still the President of the United States, and he will continue to be the President.
alex jones
Well, I know he won the election, and it's important not to recognize Biden.
So tell me this.
What is your view on what's going to unfold?
How long will it take?
dan friesen
See, Alex is just supplicating.
jordan holmes
What are we doing?
dan friesen
He's trying to find ways in which you can accept the things that Steve is saying.
Steve's saying that Trump is still the President.
He's like, well, yeah, the election was stolen.
He's trying to make it Excuses for Steve.
jordan holmes
Totally.
dan friesen
Which is wild, because this is supposed to be like Alex's, you were wrong dance.
jordan holmes
How does he do this?
unidentified
I don't know.
jordan holmes
How is this possible?
It's just, I've seen it too many times.
How can one man never learn?
Like, is he physically incapable of the act?
dan friesen
It makes you wonder if Steve's not, like, independently wealthy and, like, paying Alex or something.
jordan holmes
Something, yeah.
dan friesen
I don't know, but, like, there's some dynamic here that just doesn't make sense.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
And, like, it's really easy if you just see a couple examples of it to be like, Alex is dumb and gullible.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And maybe that is what it is, but it's such an extreme level of, like...
You could just get burned by this dude over and over again.
jordan holmes
Yeah, no, this is fealty on, like, Sith Lord levels of, like, you know he's trying to kill you all the time, right?
What are we doing here, man?
dan friesen
So you're seeing right now the exposure of the Biden corrupt, incompetent government.
steve pieczenik
What you're seeing now is the exposure of a corrupt, incompetent regime of Biden.
And all his people.
And what it really is, it's not only an indictment of Biden.
Forget that.
It's an indictment of Obama and Brennan.
This goes to the heart of the matter.
Obama, as I told you, was a gay, flaming, homosexual nobody who came, was the CIA operative, and Brennan was his control off.
Alright, alright.
jordan holmes
Okay, so instead of exoriating Steve for being a psychopathic liar, he is instead allowing Steve to be a raging bigot.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
With no pushback whatsoever.
dan friesen
Well, I don't think Alex sees a problem with any of that.
jordan holmes
Well, that I do.
I do understand that.
Yes, I agree.
dan friesen
Although, this next clip does get into territory where Alex has a problem, and that is Steve is like...
jordan holmes
I love Brian Stelter!
dan friesen
No.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
Just your narratives aren't real.
Like, Alex, the two of them are arguing about whether or not the election was stolen.
jordan holmes
Great.
steve pieczenik
Am I getting through to you how incompetent and what we have to show?
alex jones
Yeah, they're so incompetent they stole the election and took over.
steve pieczenik
They stole what election?
alex jones
They stole the election and took over.
They're so incompetent.
jordan holmes
Checkmate!
steve pieczenik
Let me ask you, how do you know they stole the election?
Where are the numbers coming in?
alex jones
Trump had double, triple, quadruple in battleground states before they shut down the election that night and stole it.
steve pieczenik
And you say that it's a theta complete, right?
You think that's over.
alex jones
Oh, no, no, here's the deal.
I never give up, but I'm also realistic about what I face.
steve pieczenik
And you think I am a wishful thinker.
That's why I come on your show.
alex jones
I just know that I talk to a lot of people in the government.
Hold on, Steve.
Seriously, listen.
Hold on a minute.
I mean, I talk to a lot of really smart people.
They tell me the country's in deep, deep trouble, and we're in a globalist takeover right now.
They're planning to set bombs off all over the country and start trying a civil war.
So I'm really concerned for my family and everybody else right now.
steve pieczenik
Who's going to set bombs?
alex jones
The Southern Poverty Law Center.
steve pieczenik
Southern Poverty Law Center?
alex jones
Yeah, they ran Elohim City.
They ran the attack on Oklahoma City.
steve pieczenik
Come on, come on, come on.
I know them very well.
They haven't said anything.
dan friesen
I know the SPLC.
unidentified
Ah, come on!
jordan holmes
The SPLC and I play golf on the weekends.
What are you talking about?
dan friesen
Alex, you're saying that the SPLC did Oklahoma City and they're planning bombings.
What are you talking about?
jordan holmes
Also, Alex, the only people threatening to do bombs and all that stuff were on your show!
dan friesen
Yeah, or associates thereof.
So I think that's really funny because this is not threatening to Alex except because Steve is seen as a credible voice because of...
Alex's action.
jordan holmes
Yes, indeed.
dan friesen
None of this would be a problem, except for that Alex can't discount him as a crazy person.
jordan holmes
No, unfortunately, this petard is too high, so I will have to jump on top of it.
dan friesen
I know the SPLC.
Alex, what election?
The election's not done.
jordan holmes
That's a solid swing.
I like that response.
I like that response.
So the election was stolen.
What election?
Ooh, now we've got a whole new wrinkle into our little lunacy.
dan friesen
So one of the main...
Devices by which Steve exerts his control over Alex is flattery, of course.
And also patronizing him.
unidentified
Yes.
dan friesen
He treats him like a little baby.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
But a lot of the flattery is in service of that patronizing.
unidentified
Indeed.
jordan holmes
It infantilizes him.
dan friesen
Oh, you're such an insightful mind.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
No, no.
It's interesting that we start with Alex being like, my dad told me this when I was younger, so I'm going to believe it until I die.
And then we get Stevie Peas coming in here.
Oh, you're a good boy.
Now, stop it!
Don't you do that, but you're a good boy.
You're a good boy.
dan friesen
Yeah.
Alex knows that, because in the middle of this interview, they start arguing about whether or not Steve is patronizing him, which is really sad.
This is just sad.
steve pieczenik
And now here in Florida, we're not listening to either Fauci, who, by the way, was exposed.
Isn't that interesting?
Trump didn't have to say he was a total fraud because the New York Times and the Atlantic Monthly exposed the nonsense about wearing a mask.
Now you don't wear one mask, you wear two masks.
So take it easy, Alex.
Listen to what's going on.
Do not get upset.
alex jones
I'm nice to you, and I think you actually believe the stuff you're saying, and you're an interesting talk show host, and people like you on the show.
So I like you as a person.
But the patronizing, dude, I'm 47 years old.
I've been around the block 100 times.
I don't patronize you.
I'm being serious about this.
steve pieczenik
What do you want me to say?
I've said to you, Alex, I've said to you exactly what's happening.
Am I patronizing you?
unidentified
No.
steve pieczenik
Am I saying you're wrong?
unidentified
Yes.
dan friesen
I just...
This show is fucked up.
This is supposed to be a show where you talk about the politics and the deep workings of the New World Order.
The first hour is grotesque discussions of imaginary child abuse fantasies that he has.
Second hour is a psychodrama with an old...
jordan holmes
Yeah, we're watching a weird soap opera right now, and it's a little bit...
I'm not sure what's going on here.
dan friesen
I think this second hour, Alex thought he was going to come in and be like...
Hey, Steve, you fucked up.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And Steve's gonna be like, you know what?
You get some right, you get some wrong.
unidentified
Totally.
dan friesen
And then they could build the next thing.
And instead, Steve's like, Trump is still president.
jordan holmes
How do you not see this coming?
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
How do you not see this coming?
dan friesen
And because Steve is a wall, he's not somebody that's gonna move, and he doesn't give a fuck.
jordan holmes
Why would he?
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
What exertion can you put upon Steve to make him move?
Oh, you can't come on my show anymore?
Clearly I can.
dan friesen
Yeah.
And Alex...
He seems to have gotten to that realization, and he starts kind of trying to help Steve make his arguments more.
jordan holmes
God, I hate him so much.
dan friesen
Because Steve is saying that Trump is still president.
At the Mar-a-Lago and what have you.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
And he's gonna come back, which coincidentally is another Q narrative.
Yeah, okay.
jordan holmes
I don't know anything about Q. I don't read that stuff from this website, this website, this website, this website, this website that I don't read.
dan friesen
Suspiciously, most of the stuff I say has to do with things that are popular in Q communities.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it's wild.
dan friesen
It's a coincidence.
So yeah, for someone who is pretending to disagree with Steve, Alex is trying to help make that point that Trump's going to return.
alex jones
Now, they're obsessed with Trump.
They're saying he's getting more popular, not less.
That actually adds credibility to what Pchenik's saying.
Pchenik, in my opinion, is walking back a little bit today.
This big event's going to happen on the 20th.
But I do agree.
They stole the election.
Trump is the president.
But here he is last year, seven, eight months ago.
I'm going from memory.
Maybe you guys can find the date.
Here he is at an appliance factory in the Midwest.
Saying, hey, I've stood up to Big Pharma.
We're paying the highest prices.
I've cut the prices, which you did by half.
They're going to come after me.
I'm going to be gone for a while.
Here it is.
donald j trump
You just have to produce a product, and it has to be a good product.
But the middlemen, well, the rebate that I'm doing cuts out the middlemen, and it reduces costs, and the money goes back to the people purchasing the drugs.
alex jones
So I have a lot of enemies out there.
unidentified
This may be the last time you'll see me for a while.
donald j trump
A lot of very, very rich enemies, but they are not happy with what I'm doing.
But I figure we have one chance to do it, and no other president's going to do what I do.
No other president would do a favored nations, a rebate, a buy from other nations at much less cost.
alex jones
Nobody.
And there are a lot of unhappy people.
And then he said at the military base, before he got on the plane in Florida, he said, I will...
I will be back.
So that adds something there to what you're saying.
I just want to put all our marbles on Trump.
dan friesen
Why are you doing this?
Why are you doing this?
This is outrageous.
There's no reason to do this.
You're supposed to disagree with Steve, not go out of your way to find clips of Trump that seem to back up what Steve's saying.
jordan holmes
I'm just...
Just jangle keys.
Is that what we need to do?
Have we just been jangling keys wrong?
Has that been our problem?
Is that why the right has been allowed to flourish?
Is we haven't found the right color of keys to dangle outside of their vision so they can get distracted instantaneously?
dan friesen
It's pretty...
I don't know, man.
jordan holmes
This is fucking out of...
No!
unidentified
You don't let people get away with it!
dan friesen
So I have two clips here from Steve's interview.
There's more, but these next two are just sort of like...
I got lost in the incoherence and pointlessness of this interview, but I still think that these two clips are interesting to listen to for the social dynamics between these two dudes.
steve pieczenik
But my point is this.
What he's letting you do is the biggest apprentice show he's ever done.
He's putting America into...
Project.
He's literally showing you the American show, which is massive corruption.
And the first president, we didn't have it with Bush Sr.
He was corrupt.
I worked with him.
We didn't have it with Nixon.
He was corrupt.
Jimmy Carter, he was corrupt.
Clintons, they were corrupt.
alex jones
Okay, Dr. Steve McInnes, let me just tell you what I've witnessed.
Trump means well.
He cares about the country.
He's not out to get us.
He was the president.
That pissed him off.
I was there when almost the whole White House was gone, and he had like 10 staffers that were loyal, and then the Secret Service stood down at the Capitol, and he literally pointed at me, and I led the people out, and I was like, my God, this is really happening, and then we got set up.
So just the idea that Trump's got all this masterful stuff going on, this sounds like a reboot.
I mean, I agree politically what you're saying is happening.
This is destroying Biden, the Democrats, worse than ever.
As they turn the economy off, as they launch all these wars, people are like, whoa, this is horrible.
I get it at a Machiavelli level or a Sun Tzu level or a Napoleon level.
Don't interrupt your enemy while they're destroying themselves.
But, I mean, they're destroying us.
They're coming after our guns.
I think they'll lose in the end, but they're just crazy.
So I just don't...
I mean, I know people that know Trump well.
He's isolated at Mar-a-Lago right now.
steve pieczenik
The point is what?
dan friesen
That is my question, too.
That's a good response, because that was incoherent.
It was a whole bunch of different spaghetti strands being thrown up against the wall.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
I think he might as well have just said, I'm not going to bail you out on that one.
dan friesen
Nope.
Nope.
Next.
Or just stare.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
Huh?
You are saying what now?
unidentified
Mm-hmm.
dan friesen
So they're talking about Trump being isolated there at the end, and this goes on to just bickering.
alex jones
The point is you're saying Trump is like, you know, Mr. Spacely in the Jetsons with all his hands on the levers.
For my information, he needs to be out in the public fighting.
He needs to be exposing.
He needs to go into that trial to annihilate them in the Senate and be thrown in that briar patch.
Instead, he's totally cut off with a bunch of cowardly lawyers telling him to be afraid of a shadow.
steve pieczenik
How do you know he's totally cut off?
alex jones
I mean...
I mean, I've talked to the president.
I've talked to him.
I know the lawyers that are involved.
I mean, I know that he's cut off.
steve pieczenik
And what is this next trial about?
The second impeachment?
What does that mean?
alex jones
No, it's totally fake.
jordan holmes
Are you understanding words?
alex jones
Even John Roberts isn't involved.
It's a sham.
Now they're trying to back off of it.
I think he should go into that Breyer patch and use that to expose him.
steve pieczenik
But he's already...
When did you ever hear besides...
What I have said, that John Roberts is one of the most corrupt Supreme Court justices we've ever had.
He's been involved with Malta.
He's been involved with all kinds of problems in his adoption of kids.
When did you ever hear that other than from me?
And now you're beginning to see how the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court is so corrupt and what may have happened to another Chief Justice.
Was somebody killed, by the way?
Was there a member of the Supreme Court who might have been killed?
I don't know.
unidentified
You tell me.
What are you doing?
jordan holmes
Wait, what is happening now?
No!
Steve!
You're a fucking liar!
dan friesen
Yeah, I can't tell if he's going back to Scalia or if he's talking about a current Supreme Court justice.
jordan holmes
Or Ruth Bader Ginsburg, maybe?
Did they kill somebody?
Just tell me who.
Is a sitting Supreme Court justice dead and we're in a fucking game?
dan friesen
Stop playing this vague game.
jordan holmes
It's not fun.
Are we weekend at Bernie-easing half the Supreme Court right now?
dan friesen
So dumb.
Ugh.
Yeah, so that kind of is indicative of how a lot of this interview goes.
There's just a...
Two delusional weirdos, but with slightly different delusions that neither is really willing to give up, although Alex's commitment is so much weaker than Steve's, and so you find him coming around.
jordan holmes
My god's a wolf, so he'll kill your god.
Nah, my god's an eagle, so he'll kill your god.
No, a wolf has jumping powers.
Yeah, I don't care.
I don't care.
You're arguing about imaginary nonsense.
dan friesen
No, there is one thing you might care about.
jordan holmes
What's that?
dan friesen
And that is bets.
They made a bet.
jordan holmes
Bets?
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
They made a bet, and that is that if Steve was correct, he would get a job at Infowars.
jordan holmes
Correct.
dan friesen
If Steve was not correct, he could never come back on again.
jordan holmes
So the bet is now meaningless.
dan friesen
Well, here's an interesting question.
jordan holmes
Are we doubly or nothing-ing?
dan friesen
There's no arbiter of who is right or who is wrong.
jordan holmes
I thought reality was...
dan friesen
Well, Steve insists that Trump is still president.
jordan holmes
That's fair.
dan friesen
So what happens then?
jordan holmes
That's a good question.
dan friesen
Steve thinks he's won this bet.
jordan holmes
That is a fascinating conundrum we have found ourselves in.
dan friesen
Yes, and so Alex suggests a middle ground that I don't think anyone is going to go for.
alex jones
People like it when you come on the show.
Even though you didn't win the bet, you did come back on the show, so I appreciate that.
We're going to go to break.
steve pieczenik
And what if you come right, will you eventually hire me then?
alex jones
Only if you co-host a show with David Knight.
All right, we're going to go to break.
We're going to come right back on the other side.
Wow, ladies and gentlemen, that would be a hot show, actually.
Those two together?
They have little canes and beat each other in the heads with them?
Okay, folks, we're going to go to break.
Little people hitting each other.
I'm not saying they're little people.
That's a quote from Time Bandits.
It's a pretty funny movie.
dan friesen
Wow.
alex jones
Listen, I've got to pay some bills or we won't be here.
jordan holmes
Yes, I don't know.
I don't know if I could stop myself from at least tuning in to see what David Knight and Stevie P's show would be like.
dan friesen
I don't know these people personally, but I find it very difficult to imagine that David would ever agree to that.
jordan holmes
Ooh, I would love it, though.
unidentified
He...
dan friesen
I don't know.
jordan holmes
The dynamic between them?
Steve is a loud, boorish nonsense peddler, and David Knight is a quiet, stated moron?
dan friesen
But that's why I think David wouldn't do it.
jordan holmes
Well, yeah, obviously.
I don't know.
He's been out of work for a while.
When you've been out of work for a while, sometimes you're like, I'll take one.
dan friesen
He's boring as hell, and we're not into him, but that doesn't mean that there isn't an audience that came along with him.
He's doing his own show on something.
Maybe a bit shoot.
I don't fucking know.
But I bet he's making something off that.
unidentified
Okay.
dan friesen
Who knows?
unidentified
I don't know.
dan friesen
And I bet.
That Alex gave him some money.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I would believe that.
I would absolutely believe he has a...
dan friesen
There is almost certainly some shut-up money.
unidentified
Oh, yeah.
jordan holmes
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
Yeah, so I do like the idea of Alex suggesting that he can have a show if he co-hosts David Knight, because...
That is a fuck you to David Knight.
jordan holmes
A huge fuck you to David Knight.
dan friesen
And that's the only thing it is.
It's not a serious suggestion.
jordan holmes
Doesn't bother Steve.
unidentified
No.
dan friesen
It is a way of him saying, I'm not going to hire you.
jordan holmes
Yeah, absolutely.
That's true.
That's true.
But everybody knew that he wasn't going to get hired anyways, and Stevie Bees wouldn't want a job even if it was offered.
dan friesen
I think Steve would.
I think it's actually...
I mean, Steve saying, are you still going to hire me?
I think that's one of the few moments of weakness that you kind of see from Steve, that he's actually...
He seems interested in that, which is weird.
jordan holmes
Wow, so he really does think he's right.
dan friesen
Well, yeah.
jordan holmes
Or at least he thinks he can gaslight Alex into a job.
dan friesen
Imagine how gullible the employees at InfoWars are if you can trick Alex this easily.
jordan holmes
Wild.
dan friesen
Yeah.
I would say Steve needs someone to help him turn on the Skype and stuff.
Sure.
If I were him, yeah, maybe you would want to get a job at InfoWars.
There are producers there.
jordan holmes
That's true.
dan friesen
I don't know.
jordan holmes
That's true.
dan friesen
Anyway, Steve is a man of many talents.
unidentified
Is he?
dan friesen
Getting Aldo Morrow killed is one of them.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Lying to Alex.
jordan holmes
That wasn't really a talent.
dan friesen
He was really good at it.
jordan holmes
Well, that's more of a proficiency, I suppose.
dan friesen
But it turns out he has another skill that Alex brings up, and that is poetry readings.
unidentified
Okay.
alex jones
And look, he actually goes to coffee shops and reads poetry in his off time.
So this guy doesn't just go all their books with Tom Clancy or help found Delta Force.
He's reading poetry.
And everybody gets really excited when he talks about who it's dedicated to.
This is called Impending Chaos by Steve Pachanek.
Here's the end of it.
unidentified
Present and the future.
Incapable of accepting all those false standards.
We're counting long ago, time and time and time again.
Chaos arrives, long for God, in abounding with infinite vitality to eliminate and disintegrate matter into electronic processes.
Penetrating the invisible and the dead.
Silence, the kind moon, for those who don't die or disappear.
Gloria in excelsis, the apples.
Lucifer, the dear morning star, forever and forever.
Amen.
alex jones
Lucifer?
Amen?
What is this?
So...
It's like, oh, false narratives, but someday they'll come true, like H.P. Lovecraft, like someday even death may die.
So, is this a love letter to Lucifer, Steve Pachenik?
Are you secretly got a little heart for the devil?
steve pieczenik
No, I have the heart for neither the devil nor the angel is what I have a heart for.
It's simply, and why I go on your show, you're the only show I ever go on, is number one, your incredible intelligence.
Number two, your incredible sense of humor.
dan friesen
Let me translate that for you.
My religion is fucking with you.
jordan holmes
That's the only thing that gets me out of bed in the morning.
dan friesen
I don't care about the devil.
I don't care about the angels.
I am going to manipulate the shit out of you.
jordan holmes
It's just what I gotta do.
This is a new poem.
A rat done bit my sister Nell.
dan friesen
I think Steve's a weird dude.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
The idea that he's doing poetry readings is interesting.
jordan holmes
Makes perfect sense to me.
dan friesen
I mean, on some level, yeah.
It's nice that he has hobbies that are harmless.
I don't understand why Alex would...
I respond to a poem that ends with an amen to Lucifer as if it's just a joke when he takes this very, very seriously and anybody else brings up the devil.
Or doesn't bring up the devil.
jordan holmes
Yeah, especially when they don't bring up the devil, I would argue.
dan friesen
Now, here's what's interesting.
jordan holmes
What's that?
dan friesen
After this, I can't tell if this is a joke or not.
But Steve literally refers to himself as a son of Lucifer.
jordan holmes
Okay.
steve pieczenik
Now, as Lucifer and the son of Lucifer.
I basically look at cold fact.
When 9 /11 occurred, I was ostracized.
Within minutes, I was deprecated, ostracized, and Bob Gates of the Secretary of Defense.
And the former DCI, whom I couldn't admire at all, I thought he was disgusting and stupid because he couldn't get in the rank corporation, basically warned me not to do a coup.
dan friesen
I almost guarantee that right after 9-11, Steve was not a high priority.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
I don't think people are like, oh no, Steve's going to run a coup.
jordan holmes
No, it was between the first and the second.
They were like, real quick, we've got to make sure Steve is out of stepping!
dan friesen
Check on Pachenik.
jordan holmes
Get him in the box!
Steve has been waiting to do a coup for no reason!
Now he got something!
Get him!
dan friesen
I think he might have been joking, but I was blown away that Alex doesn't be like, why'd you refer to yourself as a son of Lucifer?
Should we be talking?
jordan holmes
Ah, Dan, we are all technically the sons of Lucifer.
Lucifer, of course, the Lightbringer, and Michael, the Demiurge, the two of them together, without which none of creation would happen.
dan friesen
I find it weird.
jordan holmes
Okay, well, that's also fair.
dan friesen
I also find it weird that this interview kind of ends with Alex and Steve being buddies, and they're just sort of shitting on David Knight.
jordan holmes
I hate them both.
alex jones
Would you host a daily show with David Knight?
I'll bring him back if you host it with him.
steve pieczenik
I have no hard feelings for David Knight.
alex jones
I love David Knight.
steve pieczenik
It's not an issue of David Knight or you or me.
alex jones
No, I'm saying, would you host a show with David Knight?
steve pieczenik
All I'm saying is I want to come back on your show and say to you, okay, where is my position?
alex jones
I agree.
How about a debate between you and David Knight?
That would be great.
steve pieczenik
Oh, not yet.
alex jones
By the way, I don't think this is an attack.
I hope David does well.
David's got his own show he's doing right now.
I'm so mad about what I covered.
I finally just said, dude, you got to go.
dan friesen
Wait, I thought you said it was a budget thing.
Huh, that's weird.
If I were David Knight, I would take this as an attack, too, because it is.
jordan holmes
David's going to take this as an attack, but it's not, because I love him very much, and I definitely haven't been attacking him this entire time.
unidentified
No, no, no.
That would be weird.
dan friesen
He seems to be also sort of thinking of David Knight as a thing.
You know, like, I'll bring him back.
No, I don't think he would come back.
jordan holmes
No, he's a human being, sir.
dan friesen
I will make him dance with you.
jordan holmes
Wild.
I cannot...
I would be so...
So furious.
Like, that wouldn't even insult me.
If I was David Knight, that wouldn't insult me.
That Steve is back would insult me more than anything I could imagine.
dan friesen
I think if I were David, I'd probably be considering speaking to a lawyer to break my NDA.
jordan holmes
Totally, totally.
dan friesen
I would just be like, alright, well, now it's time to talk about everything I know.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, you can't do this.
You fired me because this guy lied, and then you called him on it, and then you brought him back, and now you're buddies again?
Yeah.
Fuck you.
dan friesen
I'm out.
I think the problem is that, you know, Steve's a good guy.
alex jones
All right.
Well, I think you meant what you said, and I don't think you did it out of meanness or badness, and that's what my gut tells me.
So, SteveBachini.com.
Hey, come back on next week.
We're challenging David Knight to come in studio, and we will...
Okay, all right.
Hey, SteveBachini.com, thank you so much.
We've got another guest coming up.
I appreciate you spending time with us.
All right, we'll be right back.
Well, that was a powerful interview, ladies and gentlemen, and definitely something is going on.
I don't know what it is, but it's crazy.
The office of the former president.
dan friesen
Yeah, something is going on.
jordan holmes
I don't know.
I don't know what needs to happen other than like a permanent dunk tank for these two idiots.
There's no place that they can be a loud and polite society without being a cancer upon the rest of us other than in a permanent dunk tank where I can throw apples at a target.
dan friesen
I mean, I understand what you're saying, and I hear you.
I don't get it.
jordan holmes
Nah.
dan friesen
I can't imagine.
I've listened to this show so much for so long, and legitimately, there's just a reality that is being denied by Steve, and I would have thought that Alex would stand up for basic tenets of reality.
jordan holmes
Just anything.
Anything!
dan friesen
I can't believe this interview went how it did.
jordan holmes
No, I'm...
dan friesen
It's outrageous.
jordan holmes
No, I'm furious.
I'm furious.
dan friesen
I didn't know what to expect when I heard, like, Steve's coming in, he's got to face the music.
unidentified
I wasn't expecting this.
jordan holmes
I was not expecting...
I am shaking with rage.
On, I guess, Alex's behalf?
dan friesen
Alex can't decide whether or not he wants to, like, say Steve is wrong and push back against his shit, or, like, play clips of Trump saying, I'm gonna be gone for a while to try and help Steve make his arguments.
He's trying to play both sides of this fence, and you can't.
unidentified
Nope.
dan friesen
It makes no sense to.
jordan holmes
Because one of them is, uh...
Well, actually, both of them are imagined.
Eh, fuck it.
Who cares?
Do whatever you want, but you're a monster and an idiot.
dan friesen
I thought that there would be a point where Alex would just...
You have to be like, Steve, we've gone too far.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
I wish you the best.
Have fun in Florida.
I'm not talking to you anymore.
And no, it turns out there's not.
jordan holmes
Nope, we're buddies now.
dan friesen
It really makes me wonder what happened after the Las Vegas shooting that made Alex stop talking to him for a good six, eight months.
jordan holmes
Better legal advice.
dan friesen
Maybe.
Maybe he had more to protect then, or maybe David Knight was more of an influence then.
jordan holmes
Could be.
Could be.
I just, I'm blown away.
dan friesen
The judgment skills are outrageously bad.
jordan holmes
I really am a little bit speechless at this.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
This is the...
dan friesen
Well, get ready to be speechful, because Alex has another guest.
jordan holmes
Oh, no.
dan friesen
In the third hour.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
And he's a boog boy.
jordan holmes
Oh, God.
dan friesen
Alex is in love with the Boogaloo Boys.
jordan holmes
I don't...
I can't hang.
dan friesen
He has Magnus Panvidia back on.
jordan holmes
What are we doing?
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
What are we doing?
dan friesen
Because Magnus offered to get this Antifa person.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
For Alex to interview.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
And so this is the coming to fruition of that.
unidentified
Uh-huh.
dan friesen
And it's not really that interesting outside of saying that, like, Alex is clearly down now with the Boogaloo Boys.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And Magnus is still full of shit.
magnus panvidya
Yeah, so just having people talking to each other and more and more groups kind of reaching out.
And then the establishment has kind of picked up wind of this.
And a lot of progressive and liberal YouTube channels that have been talking about, hey, maybe unity.
Hey, maybe we should work together with ex-Trump supporters.
They've started to get demonetized or have their Facebook pages talked out.
We'll take it out.
Which is like, oh, that's really convenient that, you know, like, they're saying the same thing they've been saying all last year, but the moment they started to be like, hey, maybe we should work with Trump supporters, maybe we should reach out to the right, they get their, you know...
alex jones
Because they want a civil war.
You guys want revolution and a change.
You don't want a civil war, right?
magnus panvidya
Yeah, and that's what they want, and that's what I've been saying from the very beginning.
dan friesen
Wow.
Okay, what does the boogaloo mean, then?
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Like, just like, oh, yeah, you don't want a civil war?
Okay.
Interesting.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
Interesting, because why are you wearing a Hawaiian shirt?
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
It's Big Luau, right?
jordan holmes
No, don't tell me.
dan friesen
Why does your flag have a big igloo on it?
Oh, big igloo, boogaloo.
Oh, it's all electric boogaloo, part two.
Civil War II.
Come on, dude.
jordan holmes
These people need to be...
dan friesen
Stop fucking around.
Stop pretending.
jordan holmes
...rooted out.
Unreal.
dan friesen
Well, I just think they need to be honest, and that's one of the reasons why these interviews are so weird, is because there's deceptiveness, but it's clearly...
Like, deceptiveness for the target audience.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Like, this is deceptiveness that's tailored to Alex's audience.
jordan holmes
Yeah, this is more infomercial.
This is not an interview.
This isn't a fucking news show.
This is an infomercial for why you should be cool with the Boogaloo Boys.
Yeah.
dan friesen
That's what it is.
And one of the things you might be afraid of is that they won a civil war.
He's just said they don't.
unidentified
Great!
dan friesen
Now, he doesn't want a civil war, but what he does want is a war against the government.
magnus panvidya
The opponent, everyone we've always talked about, is the federal government.
There's never a meme made or a post made about going out and fighting Democrats or going out and attacking Trump supporters.
None of our information, none of our messaging has ever been about that.
Everything we've always talked about is the government, and particularly the federal government.
That's always been the opponent.
So it's never been a civil war.
And we've already, most of us have stated that if there was some Republican versus Democrat kind of civil warfare, most of us wouldn't participate.
We would go out into our cabins and into the woods and just try to stay out of it.
dan friesen
Go fuck yourself.
But also, this is so disingenuous because he's pretending that he has this idea of this war against the federal government as if the majority of the country wouldn't side with the government over him.
Like, that's the part that is the real imaginary world bullshit that he's trying to pull off.
It's like, no, we don't want to hurt anybody.
Like, what about everybody who thinks that the government shouldn't be overthrown by force?
jordan holmes
Oh, well, I mean, I've never seen them.
dan friesen
You will end up having to hurt them.
jordan holmes
No, no, no, I've never met any of those people.
I've been on the internet.
Everybody hates the federal government.
So what'll happen is all of the people in the United States.
Now, obviously, I assume that the people who are paid by the federal government, you know, there's what, three, four, five million people?
dan friesen
There's a lot of people that would probably join the Boogaloo Boy to fight against the federal government.
jordan holmes
Wow, wow, wow.
dan friesen
It's delusional.
I mean, look, yeah, obviously there's a lot of dissatisfaction with the government.
There's a lot of people who want structural, fundamental changes.
That is not the same as people who would say, like, yeah, I'll take up arms with you against the federal government.
No, fuck that.
This is outrageous.
jordan holmes
That is just unacceptable.
dan friesen
But it's the disingenuous framing of what the agenda and the goals are.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
So outrageous.
unidentified
Yep.
dan friesen
And one of the things that seems to be the real thrust of these PR campaigns, Yeah, it's picking up steam and particularly, like, people are starting to look into things and starting to question whether, you know, they...
magnus panvidya
Had false beliefs on all of these different movements, or even if they didn't have false beliefs, that their feelings on them were exaggerated or focused by the media to an extreme to get them to the point where they dehumanize half the population.
And that happens on both sides.
alex jones
It's total radicalization.
It's total radicalization.
dan friesen
He's talking to a guy who says that all the Democrats work for Satan.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't know how to listen to this, Dan.
dan friesen
Yeah, you can.
jordan holmes
I don't know how to listen to people judge.
unidentified
Oh, no, no, no.
jordan holmes
How dare the others?
dan friesen
These people are both full of shit to each other.
They're both not acting at all with any kind of decorum.
jordan holmes
No, this hurts my brain.
dan friesen
It does.
jordan holmes
This hurts my brain.
It's hard to navigate reality in the internet era.
It's very, very difficult.
Listening to these two assholes talk.
Knowing, in the back of my mind, that no matter what these guys are saying, they are dreaming of watching me bleed to death.
That is what they both desire.
Watching me personally bleed to death.
dan friesen
Well, that's because your blood coming out is not really a pain to you.
It's really more of a demon leaving your body.
jordan holmes
Yeah, exactly.
unidentified
No, no, no.
jordan holmes
I'm gonna go with the more that this guy talks, the more I just...
Like that, oh, no, no, no, people are hearing that the media lies they've been telling about this.
All you're saying is, one, your bullshit is working, and two, you are doing this in service of watching me bleed to death, so fuck you!
dan friesen
So, Magnus gets to continuing this point, and some people act like their opposition is actually literally evil, like the person he's talking to right now.
magnus panvidya
You have people that literally view everyone in the opposing party as some evil, destructive force that has to be physically removed.
And the fact that people don't get to that naturally.
You don't hate your neighbor like that as just a regular human being.
It's totally manufactured.
It's totally pushed by the media to get people to that point.
alex jones
What do you think is going to happen to Biden post-Trump?
dan friesen
Yeah, Alex has to pivot and change the subject because he's talking about...
Exactly what Alex does.
You know, he's saying like, oh, this isn't real.
It's not organic.
It's manufactured by the media.
The media that you're talking to.
unidentified
Yeah, me.
jordan holmes
I'm saying that we should kill all the Democrats.
I've said that before.
I've said that they are all in service of the literal Christian devil.
Are you saying that the other side dehumanizes their opponents?
Because if they do, I want to sue them for intellectual property.
dan friesen
It's outrageous.
They're just using each other, and the end result is just...
jordan holmes
No, I just...
dan friesen
So, the media has a vested interest in making the people who are a threat to the media and their enemies, they want these groups to look scarier than they are, right?
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
I'd like to remind you before we listen to this clip that Alex spent most of the first hour of the show talking grotesquely about how his imaginary enemies abuse and kill and eat children.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
In ways that were so graphic and exploitative that I refuse to play them on our show.
unidentified
Yeah.
alex jones
I'm not defending white supremacists.
I've actually been around some of them.
The average one, though, thinks they're a victim and thinks everybody's out to get them.
And actually, it's not what the media even says.
I'm not defending them.
But I've talked to them.
They actually believe something totally different as well.
So it seems like what we're hearing about each group is not actually what's going on.
magnus panvidya
No, yeah, because they intentionally want everyone to look scarier and more dangerous and more evil than they actually are.
They don't want, you know...
Because before, if you go back, it's very much kind of like To Kill a Mockingbird.
And, you know, the whole thing with Boo Radley of they just want to take someone who might be a little weird or might be wrong, and they want to make them look like a demon.
They want to make them look like a devil.
unidentified
No, I agree.
alex jones
So what's the answer to ending?
We get Boogaloos, Militias, the KKK, and Black Lives Matter all at a barbecue.
And I would guess, at the end of it, most people would be friends.
You'd have still people trying to start a fight.
dan friesen
I would guess that they would not necessarily be friends.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yep, yep.
I think we just proved karma isn't real.
dan friesen
Huh.
jordan holmes
I don't think there's a god, I don't think there's any punishment, or retribution, or justice in the universe, because those two guys are allowed to speak on air.
dan friesen
Well, there's a part of me that really sincerely wonders, as I listen to this, if Magnus...
Wasn't saying these things as a sort of pointed thing to Alex.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
There was a part of me that wondered if he knew that this is what Alex does.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And was saying it for that purpose.
It's weird because these two guests, Magnus and Steve, are both manipulating the shit out of Alex.
unidentified
Oh yeah!
dan friesen
And using techniques that Alex can't really respond to.
jordan holmes
He doesn't have the wherewithal.
dan friesen
No.
And it's interesting to see the old generation and then the new generation just abusing Alex's...
jordan holmes
Fuck over this dum-dum.
Ugh.
dan friesen
Use him for all he's worth.
jordan holmes
What an idiot.
dan friesen
So there is an Antifa member who's going by a pseudonym.
Sure.
Along with Magnus.
jordan holmes
Antifascist.
dan friesen
And I don't care.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
I don't really care.
jordan holmes
I agree.
What, uh, what?
No.
Actually, I just listened to Boogaloo Boy lie to my face, even though I know in his heart he wants to see me bleed to death.
So I really don't care what the person sitting next to him says, either.
dan friesen
Yeah, I don't, I'm not particularly interested.
I don't know who this person is.
They're using a fake name.
They're wearing a mask when they're talking.
jordan holmes
Oh, well then it doesn't mean anything at all.
dan friesen
And the stuff that they're saying is really not very controversial and it doesn't start a fight.
It's just like, yeah, we're against corporate world corporations.
Whatever.
It's very mild and Alex doesn't really take issue with much.
I don't know.
It was disappointing, much like the Steve interview.
And so here's Alex's final suggestion.
alex jones
I would love to see Antifa and the Proud Boys have a summit together.
My God, it'd have 50 million views online.
Big Tech let it out there.
It'd actually just end all this stupidity.
dan friesen
This cuts to the heart of so much of Alex's politics being meaningless and empty.
He would love to see a summit between the Proud Boys and Antifa because he thinks it would go viral.
jordan holmes
How long?
What month is it?
dan friesen
March.
February.
unidentified
February.
jordan holmes
What year is it?
dan friesen
2021 Blackjack.
jordan holmes
I won that one.
dan friesen
No, you said it before I finished 2021.
jordan holmes
That's true.
You're right.
Damn it.
And how long ago did violent fascists try to overthrow the United States government?
dan friesen
A couple weeks.
jordan holmes
Okay.
Now, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that the people on the right who are saying we should have summits are doing that more for their benefit than ours.
dan friesen
Yeah, probably.
jordan holmes
I'm gonna go with that.
dan friesen
But even beyond that, Alex can only see this through the lens of what would be attention-grabbing.
jordan holmes
Totally, totally.
dan friesen
Steve, let's get you to do a show with David Knight, not because that would bring anything to the world, not because we would get any greater understanding or information out of that dynamic, but because you guys would fight and it would draw attention.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it'd be great.
Everybody'd love it.
dan friesen
I saw this Boogaloo Boy guy get interviewed on Jimmy Dore's show.
It got a lot of attention, so I reached out to him because I wanted some of that attention.
jordan holmes
Right.
See, personally, I have always thought that the best form of governance would happen in the WWE writers' room.
So naturally, I assumed that...
dan friesen
Oh, that's a dictatorship.
jordan holmes
No, no, no.
See, what happens is the government should be a giant spectacle.
That never accomplishes anything and resets to new narratives every now and again.
dan friesen
But I don't think that's what the WWE writers' room is like.
I think it's Vince McMahon hitting everyone over the head with a stick and saying, no, no!
jordan holmes
Oh, so that would be very similar to what it is that happened when the professional wrestling took over the government.
dan friesen
Somewhat.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
So, we've come to the end, and I feel disappointed.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
I feel disappointed in life.
dan friesen
I'm disappointed in everyone but you and our audience.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
And maybe a few select people in the world, but everybody that I'm looking at here, a random Antifa person, quote-unquote, Magnus.
Alex, Steve Pachanek.
The only person I don't feel all that bad about is Steve Pachanek's wife.
That's because I don't know anything about her, and all I do is hear her laugh when Alex says something shitty.
jordan holmes
Yeah, she seems to be having a great time.
She seems to be enjoying the shit out of this.
dan friesen
I'm sure if I knew anything about her, I would have some issues.
jordan holmes
She's just there for the company.
You know, when you get older, you just like being around somebody.
You don't want to live alone.
dan friesen
Yeah, so I just wanted more.
But, you know, you get what you get.
jordan holmes
I want an apology.
I would like an apology.
I feel like that's not unreasonable to ask.
dan friesen
I don't think it's unreasonable, but I don't think you're ever going to get it because we have entered like an even...
The thing that's...
It's not even disappointment.
It's disorientation.
Because I think on some level, this represents a new level of not-reality we're living in.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
No, this is beyond not-reality.
This is creating a not-reality on top of the not-reality that didn't happen!
dan friesen
There's a not-reality to Infowars and Alex Jones' narratives about the world.
And it's one thing to kind of see, like, ah, this is Alex trying to maintain that not-reality.
Now you have Steve introducing this secondary layer of non-reality on top of Alex's non-reality.
And it's disorienting, and you would think that Alex would want to fight to maintain control of his non-reality, but he doesn't seem able to.
unidentified
Nope.
dan friesen
It's weird.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I think that's actually my new position.
My new and major position, I will absolutely reach out across the aisle when I get an apology.
I'd be happy to do that.
dan friesen
Yeah, I think that most people...
Yeah.
jordan holmes
I would like a direct apology from every individual.
dan friesen
Oh, well, that might be...
jordan holmes
And then I will reach out across the aisle to that single individual.
dan friesen
That might be tough.
I don't think you're going to get that.
jordan holmes
I would like one.
dan friesen
But you know what the audience is going to get?
Another episode.
unidentified
Hell yeah.
dan friesen
Next time.
jordan holmes
Nice transition.
dan friesen
But until then, we have a website.
jordan holmes
We do have a website.
It's knowledgefight.com.
dan friesen
We're also on Twitter.
jordan holmes
We are on Twitter.
It's at knowledgefight.com.
dan friesen
We're also on Facebook.
jordan holmes
We are on Facebook.
iTunes, if you could please find a local charity or bail fund in your area to help out those doing God's work.
dan friesen
Yeah, we'll be back.
But until then, I'm Neo, I'm Leo, I'm DZX, Clark, I'm Daryl Rundis.
I'm the guy who's in charge of telling Alex when his caller's up.
I fucked up.
alex jones
I got fired.
Andy in Kansas, you're on the air.
Thanks for holding.
unidentified
Hello, Alex.
jordan holmes
I'm a first-time caller.
unidentified
I'm a huge fan.
I love your work.
