=== Nick's Pizza Experience (05:02) ===

[00:00:21]  I'm sick of them posing as if they're the good guys, saying we are the bad guys.
[00:00:29]  Knowledge fight.
[00:00:30]  Dan and Jordan, nah.
[00:00:31]  I love you.
[00:00:59]  Hey, everybody.
[00:01:00]  Welcome back to Knowledge Fight.
[00:01:01]  I'm Dan.
[00:01:01]  I'm Jordan.
[00:01:02]  We're a couple dudes like to sit around, worship at the altar of Selene, and talk a little bit about Alex Jones.
[00:01:06]  Oh, indeed we are, Dan.
[00:01:07]  Jordan.
[00:01:08]  Dan?
[00:01:08]  Jordan.
[00:01:09]  Quick question for you.
[00:01:09]  What's up?
[00:01:10]  What's your bright spot?
[00:01:11]  My bright spot today is I was able to partake in over the weekend.
[00:01:16]  I was invited over to friend of the show, friends of the show, Marty DeRosa and Sarah Shockey's house.
[00:01:22]  Oh, you got an invite, huh?
[00:01:23]  I got an invite to go over and watch the GCW, the Game Changer Wrestling pay-per-view.
[00:01:30]  No, no, that's fine.
[00:01:31]  Headlined by Nick Gage versus Jon Moxley in a death match.
[00:01:36]  Okay.
[00:01:37]  Which is definitely not my thing.
[00:01:41]  You don't like deathmatches?
[00:01:42]  No!
[00:01:43]  What's wrong with deathmatches?
[00:01:43]  They're gross!
[00:01:44]  Are they, like, real...
[00:01:46]  Bloody!
[00:01:46]  Oh, that's no good.
[00:01:48]  Why?
[00:01:48]  Do people like that?
[00:01:49]  Yeah, apparently some people enjoy that.
[00:01:51]  But you know that they're not supposed to bleed, because they're good.
[00:01:54]  But this whole thing is, like, I didn't understand this fully until kind of, like, watching this match and sort of putting the pieces together.
[00:02:01]  It's basically, like, with deathmatches, it's like, alright, there's some glass over here.
[00:02:05]  I'm gonna throw you through that.
[00:02:07]  Then there's a sharp thing over here.
[00:02:09]  You're going to throw me through that.
[00:02:11]  It's just that over and over again.
[00:02:13]  Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:02:13]  It's very weird.
[00:02:14]  I don't enjoy it.
[00:02:16]  It's competitive, running while innocent bystanders are carrying pained glass everywhere you go.
[00:02:24]  Yeah, it's not my thing.
[00:02:26]  I don't enjoy it.
[00:02:29]  I'm not even the biggest fan of pro wrestling, but when I am, it's not that stuff.
[00:02:33]  Yeah, and there's a bit of blood.
[00:02:36]  The rest of the pay-per-view was kind of, like, tame.
[00:02:39]  Like, I expected there to be more death matches.
[00:02:42]  Right.
[00:02:42]  Because that was, like, sort of their thing.
[00:02:44]  Right.
[00:02:44]  There was almost no blood or anything throughout the whole proceedings.
[00:02:48]  Were they good?
[00:02:48]  Like, the matches were good?
[00:02:50]  There was varying quality.
[00:02:52]  Some of it was alright.
[00:02:53]  The audience was kind of weird.
[00:02:55]  I don't know.
[00:02:55]  They were a little bit low energy.
[00:02:57]  But the death match itself, here's my review.
[00:03:01]  Disappointing.
[00:03:02]  Underwhelming.
[00:03:03]  Not enough, Dad!
[00:03:04]  I was expecting...
[00:03:05]  Only one man should have left!
[00:03:07]  It was disgusting.
[00:03:08]  Like, they were bleeding around, and it's like, ugh, why would you do this?
[00:03:12]  But, like, I wasn't shocked.
[00:03:14]  There was nothing, like, really exciting about it.
[00:03:17]  No, I saw The Wrestler 20 years ago.
[00:03:18]  It was great.
[00:03:19]  Right, but when you're doing these things, and, like, I know that you don't know who they are necessarily, but, like, Nick Gage and Jon Moxley are huge names in this sort of arena.
[00:03:29]  Gotcha.
[00:03:29]  So the two of them competing for the championship belt in a death match.
[00:03:33]  Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:03:34]  The stakes are high.
[00:03:35]  Like, they need to deliver something that's like, wow, someone died.
[00:03:39]  Right.
[00:03:40]  And I did not see that.
[00:03:42]  You didn't feel it.
[00:03:43]  I was very bored.
[00:03:45]  And grossed out.
[00:03:46]  And grossed out.
[00:03:47]  That's not great.
[00:03:48]  You don't want to be bored and grossed out.
[00:03:49]  Yeah, yeah.
[00:03:50]  So one of the things that Nick Gage does is he cuts people with a pizza cutter.
[00:03:54]  Like one of those circular pizza cutters.
[00:03:56]  He cuts their forehead.
[00:03:57]  No, and he can stop whenever he wants.
[00:03:59]  I would enjoy it if he did.
[00:04:00]  Yeah.
[00:04:01]  So Jon Moxley got a pizza cutter early in the match and was cutting Nick Gage, right?
[00:04:07]  Right?
[00:04:10]  Don't say those words and act like I'm supposed to act like that's fine.
[00:04:13]  A grown adult man went and got a pizza cutter to cut another grown adult man's face with it.
[00:04:20]  They agreed to do this in a match.
[00:04:23]  Exactly, yes.
[00:04:24]  All in good fun.
[00:04:25]  It's for competition.
[00:04:26]  For money.
[00:04:28]  Nick Gage did not bleed all that much from the cuts.
[00:04:32]  Then later on in the match, Nick got the pizza cutter and was cutting Moxley.
[00:04:37]  And I noticed that his technique was different and that he used his thumb to aid.
[00:04:43]  And I was like, I should not be noticing that during a death match.
[00:04:48]  That's how bored I am.
[00:04:49]  Yeah, that's too much awareness.
[00:04:51]  That's too much awareness.
[00:04:54]  So anyway, it's not for me.
[00:04:56]  But it was a fun time, and it was really nice to see Marty and Sarah.
[00:04:59]  Yeah, that is great.
[00:05:00]  I hope someday they invite me somewhere, too.
[00:05:03]  You couldn't have come anyway.
[00:05:04]  I know.
[00:05:05]  You were exposed or predisposed that evening.
[00:05:08]  What's the term?

=== Slot Machines and Smoking Areas (03:11) ===

[00:05:10]  Indisposed.
[00:05:10]  That's it.
[00:05:11]  Yes.
[00:05:11]  Well, but that's what makes it more fun whenever you complain about not getting an invite that you couldn't go to anyways.
[00:05:17]  Everybody knows we're having a great time, and I'm an asshole.
[00:05:20]  Yeah, so what's your bright spot?
[00:05:21]  My bright spot, Dan, is why I was in...
[00:05:24]  My partner and I celebrated her birthday at the casino, as we talked about earlier.
[00:05:32]  It was very fun.
[00:05:34]  Sure.
[00:05:35]  Lights.
[00:05:36]  Casino parts, terrible.
[00:05:38]  Don't like them.
[00:05:38]  There's a lot of slot machines, and I don't understand them whatsoever.
[00:05:42]  There's so many of them, and people just sitting there smoking, pulling it.
[00:05:47]  Bananas!
[00:05:48]  Bananas!
[00:05:49]  I'm walking over there, and my favorite part, though, was there was a no-smoking area, which, coming from Chicago, I was like, oh, how quaint!
[00:05:58]  There's a no-smoking area that's very small, and you go over there, and you see those are the saddest, worst slot machines they have.
[00:06:07]  They're all from 1965.
[00:06:08]  They look like the cash registers from 1940s, you know, like that kind of thing.
[00:06:12]  And it was so clear that they're just like...
[00:06:15]  We can still do this here.
[00:06:17]  There's nowhere else we can do this.
[00:06:19]  This is a man with a bone to pick.
[00:06:21]  Do you know what I mean?
[00:06:22]  We can sit and smoke and drink really bad free cocktails.
[00:06:28]  Everywhere else we go.
[00:06:29]  Everywhere else we go, people who don't smoke are like, you can't smoke here.
[00:06:34]  Here, though, you go in the corner.
[00:06:37]  It's great.
[00:06:39]  It's such a bummer.
[00:06:40]  The whole vibe of a casino is a bummer.
[00:06:44]  After you mentioned this on our last episode, my buddy Berger, who I used to go to the Isle of Capri Casino with, messaged me and it reminded me of some things.
[00:06:53]  And we were talking about it.
[00:06:54]  It's like, yeah, the casino's really depressing, but what's worse is the dog track.
[00:06:57]  Ooh, you can't go to a dog track.
[00:06:58]  No.
[00:06:59]  No, you can't go to a dog track.
[00:06:59]  One time when Nicky Gifts was in town, I went along with him to the dog track.
[00:07:03]  Yes, I remember.
[00:07:04]  It was so sad.
[00:07:06]  I remember.
[00:07:07]  You were texting.
[00:07:08]  That's how I remember how bad the dog track is.
[00:07:11]  And I don't remember shit.
[00:07:13]  Yeah, so for your partner's next birthday, go to the doctor.
[00:07:17]  If you really want to plumb the depths of just human desperation.
[00:07:22]  Listen up, my dearest heart, I want to go further down the rabbit hole.
[00:07:27]  Let's see how much our psyches can take.
[00:07:29]  Yes, yes.
[00:07:31]  This is going to make us stronger for the apocalypse.
[00:07:33]  Yeah, I think I was texting you incessantly because I couldn't leave.
[00:07:37]  Yeah.
[00:07:38]  Because it's so far away from town.
[00:07:40]  You couldn't go anywhere.
[00:07:42]  So, Jordan, today we've got an episode to go over.
[00:07:44]  We're going to be talking about October 5th, 2021 Blackjack.
[00:07:47]  Ooh, I jumped the gun on that one.
[00:07:50]  You hadn't finished the...
[00:07:51]  You know, we need a photo finish on that.
[00:07:55]  We need to see who exactly...
[00:07:58]  This one's going to be up for review.
[00:08:00]  I do like if eventually we ever get big enough, there will be people combing through the audio files looking at exactly like, oh, no, no, no.

=== New Wonks Welcome (03:53) ===

[00:08:08]  On October 22nd, Dan lost.
[00:08:11]  Like the Zabruder film.
[00:08:12]  Just going back through frame by frame of our audio.
[00:08:15]  We've got to stay low before people can...
[00:08:17]  There's going to be Sabermetrics.
[00:08:19]  Yeah, totally.
[00:08:21]  Jordan's value over replacement in terms of Sabermetrics.
[00:08:26]  Hey, what can we say?
[00:08:28]  It's Moneyball.
[00:08:29]  So, this episode is fun.
[00:08:32]  Okay.
[00:08:34]  Alex has the smoking gun of smoking guns.
[00:08:38]  Is that the smoking gun that shot another smoking gun and killed it?
[00:08:43]  I mean, yeah, that would make sense.
[00:08:45]  It's like the gate of gates.
[00:08:46]  Sure, sure.
[00:08:47]  And it worked out well the last time, so I think you should go right back to it.
[00:08:51]  It's just over-hyping nonsense, but it's actually kind of fun, and I enjoyed looking into it, so I look forward to sharing some of this with you.
[00:08:58]  Let's do it.
[00:08:58]  But first, let's say hello to some new wonks.
[00:09:01]  So first, Jordan, Deuce Bungalow Yale Juggalo.
[00:09:04]  Thank you so much.
[00:09:05]  You are now a policy wonk.
[00:09:06]  I'm a policy wonk.

[00:09:08]  Thank you, Deuce.
[00:09:09]  Next, a thankful and vaccinated disappointment to conspiracy theory and anti-vax parents.
[00:09:13]  Thank you so much.
[00:09:14]  You are now a policy wonk.
[00:09:15]  I'm a policy wonk.
[00:09:16]  Thank you very much.

[00:09:20]  Thank you so much.
[00:09:21]  You are now a policy wonk.
[00:09:22]  I'm a policy wonk.
[00:09:23]  Thanks, Tom.
[00:09:24]  Thanks, Tom.
[00:09:25]  Next, conspicuous newsroom Dixie Cup.
[00:09:27]  Thank you so much.
[00:09:28]  You are now a policy wonk.
[00:09:29]  I'm a policy wonk.
[00:09:30]  We're really knocking it out of the park today.
[00:09:32]  A lot of aliases today.
[00:09:33]  A lot of really good ones today.
[00:09:35]  Next, Wicked Fellow in Smudge the Cat.
[00:09:37]  Leave a small donation of kibble at the altar of Selene.
[00:09:39]  Thank you so much.
[00:09:40]  You are now a policy wonk.
[00:09:41]  I'm a policy wonk.
[00:09:42]  Thank you.
[00:09:43]  Next, Dungeon Master Mike.
[00:09:44]  Thank you so much.
[00:09:45]  You are now a policy wonk.
[00:09:46]  I'm a policy wonk.
[00:09:47]  Dungeon Master Mike.
[00:09:48]  Thank you.
[00:09:49]  I like that.
[00:09:50]  And finally, Spencer Williams loves non-structural cheese.
[00:09:53]  Thank you so much.
[00:09:54]  You are now a policy wonk.
[00:09:55]  I'm a policy wonk.
[00:09:56]  Thank you very much!
[00:09:57]  Thank you all.
[00:09:58]  Now, Jordan.
[00:09:59]  Yes.
[00:10:00]  To make up for...
[00:10:01]  Sometimes we don't have Out of Context drops.
[00:10:04]  To make up for it, I have two for you today.
[00:10:07]  Okay.
[00:10:07]  And you can decide which one of these you enjoy more.
[00:10:10]  Here's the first one.
[00:10:11]  All right.
[00:10:11]  I'm designed to be in danger.
[00:10:13]  I'm designed to challenge the enemy.
[00:10:15]  I'm designed to piss them off.
[00:10:16]  I'm designed to work 18 hours a day.
[00:10:18]  I'm designed to have children and to cook big delicious meals and to love amazing sunsets and to...
[00:10:27]  Hunt animals and to make love.
[00:10:31]  I'm alive.
[00:10:33]  So that's the first one.
[00:10:36]  I feel like that's plagiarism.
[00:10:38]  That's the, like, we want to be free to do what we want to do speech.
[00:10:41]  That's the same thing.
[00:10:42]  It was a little bit longer than most of our Out of Context drops, but I felt like it didn't belong in any clip of the episode.
[00:10:48]  I want to make love.
[00:10:49]  I'm alive.
[00:10:50]  I'm alive.
[00:10:51]  I'm designed to fuck.
[00:10:55]  So here's the second one.
[00:10:56]  Okay.
[00:10:57]  So, Jack Spratt could eat no fat.
[00:10:59]  His wife could eat no lean because between them, they licked the platter clean.
[00:11:05]  I butchered that.
[00:11:07]  Yep.
[00:11:11]  See, he can take accountability.
[00:11:15]  Ah, fuck that one up.
[00:11:18]  Oh, well.
[00:11:19]  Hey, you gotta move on.
[00:11:20]  You know what?
[00:11:20]  You gotta move on.
[00:11:21]  Sometimes you fuck up.
[00:11:22]  You just keep plowing through.
[00:11:24]  Yep.
[00:11:25]  Jack Spratt.
[00:11:26]  Oh, shit.
[00:11:27]  I forgot the rest of it.
[00:11:28]  I don't know if you want to make a choice or if people, listeners can tell us which is the better Out of Context drop.
[00:11:34]  That's tough.
[00:11:35]  I mean, the first one is grosser.
[00:11:37]  Yeah.
[00:11:38]  That's definitely true.
[00:11:39]  Yeah.
[00:11:40]  They're both appealing in different ways.
[00:11:42]  They're in a certain death match of their own right now.

=== Project Veritas Revelations (15:38) ===

[00:11:44]  Indeed.
[00:11:44]  There's a lot of blood.
[00:11:45]  And it's disappointing.
[00:11:46]  Yeah, that's true.
[00:11:46]  So here's the first clip, Jordan.
[00:11:48]  We start on October 5th.
[00:11:49]  Wow.
[00:11:50]  Thank you so much for joining us on this live.
[00:11:53]  Tuesday, October 5th, worldwide transmission.
[00:11:57]  And everything's out in the open now.
[00:11:59]  Project Veritas got Pfizer executives on video admitting that they know that the vaccine is destroying people's immune system, that it's a higher rate of people that are sick that are taking the vaccine, and that it's causing ADE, antibody-dependent enhancement.
[00:12:20]  11-minute report.
[00:12:22]  It's on Infowars.com.
[00:12:23]  It's on Project Veritas.
[00:12:24]  And normally that would be a top story.
[00:12:27]  But it's not.
[00:12:29]  Is it because finally people have kind of gotten the idea that these guys are full of shit all the time?
[00:12:33]  No, because Alex has a bigger story.
[00:12:35]  But real quick on this Project Veritas thing.
[00:12:37]  If you hear that name and you don't immediately be like, ah, boo.
[00:12:41]  You're either an idiot or a con man yourself.
[00:12:43]  Yeah, it's too late now.
[00:12:43]  It's nonsense.
[00:12:45]  Yeah.
[00:12:45]  So the video that they put out is largely about the idea that natural immunity is better than the immunity one would give.
[00:12:50]  from vaccination.
[00:12:50]  This, of course, is a false choice that's being presented, where one option is getting vaccinated and the other is surviving COVID.
[00:12:57]  This conveniently ignores a whole lot of variables, like the possibility of dying or having severe complications from getting COVID.
[00:13:04]  These things aren't factored in because the video is arguing a stupid fake point.
[00:13:10]  There's no evidence in this video that Pfizer knows that vaccines are causing ADE, nor that they're wiping out immune systems.
[00:13:16]  There's one secretly recorded interview with a guy who's credited as a, quote, senior associate scientist who says that the rise in cases we're seeing with the Delta variant is possibly attributable to a decreased efficacy of the vaccine over time or the immunity waning.
[00:13:30]  Right.
[00:13:31]  This is being misrepresented by Alex to be this guy saying that over time the vaccine destroys your immune system when in reality it's just him explaining that the protection you may have went from 95% to 70% effective.
[00:13:42]  Yeah.
[00:13:43]  This is a person having a loose conversation, not someone who's citing hard information, so I don't know how much I would bank on even the specifics of this.
[00:13:50]  Ah, it sounds like they finally got him.
[00:13:52]  Nailed to the wall.
[00:13:54]  A lot of the rest of the video is talking about Pfizer profiting from the vaccine, and if that's the conversation that Veritas...
[00:13:59]  Fuck yeah, let's start some shit.
[00:14:00]  I welcome that conversation.
[00:14:02]  Hell yeah.
[00:14:02]  Let's go ahead and nationalize production and distribution of the necessary medical breakthroughs that happen, so the messy suspicion about profit motives, it just goes away.
[00:14:10]  I mean, considering the fact that these are financed with federal funds, i.e.
[00:14:14]  our money, how is it that then they get to make money off of the things that we paid for them to figure out?
[00:14:21]  I welcome Veritas championing that position, but I suspect that they won't because they're not actually concerned with Pfizer profiting off vaccines.
[00:14:27]  They just want to use that fact that they do make a profit.
[00:14:30]  as a prop to attack actual vaccines.
[00:14:32]  Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:14:33]  All in all, this video is lousy with fake arguments that Project Veritas is having with itself, and it's essentially meaningless.
[00:14:40]  Yeah.
[00:14:42]  I regret that I watched it.
[00:14:44]  It's such a waste of time.
[00:14:45]  I can't believe you did, but I'm proud of you.
[00:14:47]  Thank you.
[00:14:48]  We gotta not have that.
[00:14:50]  No.
[00:14:51]  I know that I say every time that a Project Veritas thing happens, it's like, well, this is the last time I'm going to look into any of this.
[00:14:58]  And then I'm just like, well, I'm curious.
[00:14:59]  You have to.
[00:15:00]  You do.
[00:15:00]  It's for you.
[00:15:02]  Nobody else believes them anymore except for people who already believe the shit that they're just justifying for them.
[00:15:07]  You're the only person who goes in there curious.
[00:15:11]  Wanting to find the truth.
[00:15:12]  And every now and again, I think they really do impress by lying in a new way.
[00:15:16]  That's true.
[00:15:17]  A creative new way.
[00:15:19]  So anyway, that's not the top story.
[00:15:21]  Okay.
[00:15:21]  Because here is the motherfucking top story.
[00:15:23]  All right.
[00:15:24]  But that's our second biggest story.
[00:15:26]  Ladies and gentlemen, you saw, you heard the broadcast title today of the Alex Jones Show.
[00:15:37]  October 5th, Tuesday.
[00:15:38]  Emergency Tuesday broadcast.
[00:15:40]  Fauci talks about staging health scare with new virus in 2019 video.
[00:15:50]  Now, our amazing crew ended up staying up here until past 8 o 'clock last night.
[00:15:58]  To bring you an emergency Monday transmission.
[00:16:00]  And believe me, I didn't just come up here for fun.
[00:16:02]  This is an emergency.
[00:16:04]  So is today's broadcast.
[00:16:05]  Because this confirms they've premeditatedly done this to us.
[00:16:09]  And Fauci on the video with the head of Health and Human Services saying we need a new virus out of China, an avian bird flu, a SARS-CoV-2 bird flu, to scare everyone into accepting the new mRNA technology.
[00:16:25]  This is just a pathetic attempt on Alex's part to grasp its straws to build up and reinforce his COVID conspiracy.
[00:16:32]  Even before I get into any of the details on this, just take a moment to grasp how stupid Alex is and what nonsense he expects this audience to accept.
[00:16:40]  Here he is saying that Fauci and other immunology experts got together and discussed how they needed a new SARS COVID bird flu in order to get people to accept vaccines.
[00:16:50]  Does Alex know that coronaviruses and influenza viruses are completely different?
[00:16:54]  No!
[00:16:54]  Because I think he doesn't.
[00:16:55]  He absolutely does not know that.
[00:16:56]  Yeah, what he's saying is just gobbledygook.
[00:16:59]  It's nonsense.
[00:16:59]  It's magic.
[00:17:00]  Yeah.
[00:17:01]  So here's what's going on.
[00:17:02]  In October 2019, Fauci was part of a panel hosted by the Milken Institute, which was broadcast on C-SPAN.
[00:17:08]  This panel was a discussion about the breakthroughs in science and technology that had made it conceivably possible to create a vaccine that actually worked universally against all strains of influenza.
[00:17:19]  Most of the discussion is about the frustrating reality that there's a lack of funding and thus a lack of motivation on the part of the industry to pursue this sort of thing, which makes sense and sucks.
[00:17:30]  There's literally no discussion of staging a pandemic.
[00:17:32]  This is completely made up.
[00:17:35]  Alex doesn't actually get to playing this clip.
[00:17:37]  Any of it?
[00:17:37]  Well, I mean, it would say different.
[00:17:39]  No, no, no.
[00:17:40]  He gets to playing clips, but 50 minutes into the episode, I was like, where is the fucking clip?
[00:17:46]  I was furious.
[00:17:48]  That's bananas.
[00:17:49]  But here, I'm going to play for you the clip of the panel that he calls The Smoking Gun.
[00:17:54]  Okay.
[00:17:54]  This is heavily edited and a lot of the things that sound suspicious make perfect sense in the context of the talk.
[00:17:59]  The only way for these dudes to have created this clip that we're about to listen to is Yes.
[00:18:06]  Yes.
[00:18:11]  Right.
[00:18:13]  He did realize that he was like, I had to stay up late with my team editing this down into something we can lie about.
[00:18:21]  And we're going to actually take quite a while talking about this, because I think that there's a valuable illustration that we can make by going to the source material and comparing it to the way that Alex presents it.
[00:18:34]  Sounds great.
[00:18:34]  But here is the combined clips of the panel.
[00:18:39]  Why don't we blow the system up?
[00:18:41]  I mean, obviously we can't just turn off the spigot on the system we have and then say, hey, everyone in the world should get this new vaccine we haven't given to anyone yet.
[00:18:50]  But there must be some way that we grow vaccines mostly in eggs the way we did in 1947.
[00:18:57]  In order to make the transition from getting out of the tried and true...
[00:19:04]  Egg growing, which we know gives us results that can be, you know, beneficial.
[00:19:09]  I mean, we've done well with that.
[00:19:11]  To something that has to be much better.
[00:19:14]  You have to prove that this works.
[00:19:17]  And then you've got to go through all of the clinical trials, phase ones, phase twos, phase three, and then show that this particular product is going to be good over a period of years.
[00:19:29]  That alone, if it works perfectly.
[00:19:34]  There might be a need or even an urgent call for an entity of excitement out there that's completely disruptive, that's not beholden to bureaucratic strings and processes.
[00:19:48]  So we really do have a problem of how the world perceives influenza, and it's going to be very difficult to change that unless you do it from within and say...
[00:20:00]  I don't care what your perception is, we're going to address the problem in a disruptive way and in an iterative way, because you do need both.
[00:20:08]  But it is not too crazy to think that an outbreak of a novel avian virus could occur in China somewhere.
[00:20:16]  We could get the RNA sequence from that, beam it to a number of regional centers, if not local, if not even in your home at some point, and print those vaccines on a patch and self-administer.
[00:20:30]  So that's the entirety of the clips that he has cut together from this panel.
[00:20:34]  Right.
[00:20:35]  Wow.
[00:20:35]  How long was the panel?
[00:20:37]  45 minutes or maybe about 50 minutes.
[00:20:39]  Oh, well, they should have edited it down to just that.
[00:20:42]  Uh-huh, yeah.
[00:20:42]  Seems like they didn't have anything else important to say.
[00:20:44]  No, certainly not.
[00:20:45]  So we're going to go through this each clip by each clip that Alex put into this compilation and discuss the context, where they come from, and what they're talking about.
[00:20:54]  Because I did watch this panel, and I thought it was actually really interesting.
[00:20:57]  So here's the first clip that Alex plays.
[00:21:00]  Why don't we blow the system up?
[00:21:02]  I mean, obviously we can't just turn off the spigot on the system we have and then say, hey, everyone in the world should get this new vaccine we haven't given to anyone yet.
[00:21:11]  But there must be some way that we grow vaccines mostly in eggs the way we did in 1947.
[00:21:19]  So this is the moderator of the discussion, Michael Spector of The New Yorker.
[00:21:24]  His question was very clearly about technological innovations in the sphere of vaccines.
[00:21:29]  It was a prompt that had to do with how this is not a space that has kept pace with other fields.
[00:21:35]  Here is that clip in its full sentence.
[00:21:40]  So as part of my life, I teach at Stanford and people use this word in Silicon Valley, which I mostly hate, but I'm going to use it now, disruption.
[00:21:50]  Why don't we blow the system up?
[00:21:52]  I mean, obviously we can't just turn off the spigot on the system we have and then say, hey, everyone in the world should get this new vaccine we haven't given to anyone yet.
[00:22:01]  But there must be some way that we grow vaccines mostly in eggs the way we did in 1947.
[00:22:09]  We live in a world where I can download whatever song I want onto my phone at command, and we grow vaccines the way we did 70 years ago.
[00:22:20]  What is going on with that?
[00:22:22]  So his conversation is about disruption in the field of technology.
[00:22:26]  Yeah, obviously.
[00:22:26]  It makes a whole lot of sense, but it sounds different based on the isolated portion of it that Alex played.
[00:22:32]  Sure, you edit it together, and it sounds like what they're really looking for is a catalyst to make everybody...
[00:22:38]  To blow up the system.
[00:22:38]  Exactly.
[00:22:39]  So if there's not going to be one that is just going to happen naturally, we'll make one in order to blow up the system.
[00:22:46]  Got it.
[00:22:46]  So here's the second clip that Alex plays.
[00:22:48]  That first one of Michael Spector was from eight minutes in.
[00:22:52]  Yeah.
[00:22:52]  Now the next clip is Fauci from 22 minutes in.
[00:22:55]  Okay.
[00:22:56]  In order to make the transition from getting out of the tried and true egg growing, which we know gives us results that can be, you know, beneficial.
[00:23:08]  I mean, we've done well with that.
[00:23:09]  To something that has to be much better.
[00:23:13]  You have to prove that this works.
[00:23:16]  And then you've got to go through all of the clinical trials, phase 1s, phase 2s, phase 3, and then show that this particular product is going to be good over a period of years.
[00:23:28]  That alone, if it works perfectly, is going to take a decade.
[00:23:33]  This is actually kind of fair.
[00:23:35]  Like, I don't think it's really all that misrepresentative.
[00:23:38]  Fauci was talking about how there were breakthroughs that scientists were making in terms of a universal flu vaccine, but it would be something that would still take a long time.
[00:23:46]  Yeah.
[00:23:46]  He's not talking about the timetables that it would take to make an mRNA coronavirus vaccine.
[00:23:52]  No.
[00:23:52]  He's talking about a universal flu vaccine.
[00:23:54]  Right.
[00:23:55]  It's a different conversation, but, like, sure, he's saying that something would take a long time.
[00:24:00]  Yeah.
[00:24:01]  That's how it works.
[00:24:01]  Right.
[00:24:02]  And it's not like...
[00:24:03]  I don't know.
[00:24:04]  This is as close to, like, okay, at least it's not maliciously out of context.
[00:24:09]  Right, right, right.
[00:24:09]  But it is a completely separate conversation.
[00:24:13]  Right, right.
[00:24:14]  I mean, the obvious thing about that, though, is like...
[00:24:17]  What they're also describing is not just a decade of research and development and all of that.
[00:24:22]  I wouldn't be too surprised if they had something that they're building around right now that is like 30% effective against most flu, you know?
[00:24:31]  And it's like, okay, they can refine that, and then...
[00:24:34]  Eventually, it's going to have to get down to, let's test it.
[00:24:37]  If we're going to give it to everybody, we're going to have to test it on everybody.
[00:24:41]  Yeah, and that's a really good point, because Fauci is also discussing how this is on the shoulders of this research that's already in the process.
[00:24:51]  Totally, yeah.
[00:24:51]  And so, I mean, there's more to it, but it's close.
[00:24:55]  It's not nearly as bad as the rest of this.
[00:24:57]  Here is the third clip, which Alex has cut in.
[00:25:00]  This is from 32 minutes, so 10 minutes after that last clip.
[00:25:04]  There might be a need or even an urgent call for an entity of excitement out there that's completely disruptive, that's not beholden to bureaucratic strings and processes.
[00:25:17]  So that clip, out of context, makes no sense.
[00:25:20]  No.
[00:25:21]  What is he talking about?
[00:25:22]  I mean, I guess what he's trying to say is that the government is acting too slow.
[00:25:26]  Or I guess what Alex is trying to make you think he's saying is that because the government can't act the way that we want it to right now, then there needs to be an outside entity that is not beholden to all of those laws of the evil government that keeps them from doing stuff.
[00:25:42]  We need fucking Satanism.
[00:25:44]  Oh, okay.
[00:25:45]  Well, here's the full context.
[00:25:47]  Okay.
[00:25:48]  I think also it's just not sexy anymore.
[00:25:52]  I mean, it probably hasn't been for quite some time.
[00:25:55]  I mean, when I was in grad school, everyone was working HIV vaccines.
[00:25:59]  I was in the laboratory here at Robinson and working on DNA vaccines for HIV.
[00:26:04]  And I came to the lab and everyone's working HIV.
[00:26:07]  She said, you can do what everyone else is doing.
[00:26:08]  I've got a little bit of leftover flu money on a flu grant over there, and no one's interested in influenza.
[00:26:13]  So I took on that challenge.
[00:26:16]  To make it sexy, I think we have to...
[00:26:18]  I like the concept disrupting this field.
[00:26:21]  If we are just continually thinking we're going to work on another iteration or...
[00:26:27]  No offense, I think we need to continue what we're doing, but another iteration or another assay or another step, I don't know if that's enough to excite those really creative thinkers.
[00:26:37]  So in addition to doing what we're doing we're so good at, I think in parallel there might be a need or even an urgent call Well, the HIV field was galvanized when we put a lot of money into it.
[00:27:02]  So let's talk about what's reality.
[00:27:05]  And I think that the easiest way to get a grad student really excited about something that isn't sexy...

=== Investing in Disruptive Flu Solutions (15:18) ===

[00:27:11]  It's to, you know, put a gown on it by having a lot of money.
[00:27:17]  And as you well know, I mean, there has been movements among certain members of Congress.
[00:27:22]  Ed Markey put a bill in for increasing the influenza for universal flu vaccine by a billion dollars over five years, which is $200 million.
[00:27:32]  When you put that kind of investment, you will get people excited not to do the same thing they're only doing.
[00:27:39]  You'll get new people to come in with new ideas that are disruptive and looking at it from different angles.
[00:27:45]  So when you have an infusion of resources, that's how the field changes because that's exactly what happened with HIV.
[00:27:52]  So predominantly what they're talking about, and it becomes pretty clear when you listen to the full answer.
[00:27:58]  And they talk about it a bit more throughout, too, is there needs to be some kind of dedicated flu entity that has funding for this, for flu research.
[00:28:11]  Because when you have the money, you attract creative thinkers who can attack the problem from other angles, things you wouldn't think of.
[00:28:20]  They innovate.
[00:28:20]  It's disruptive to the status quo of how treatment has been modeled up till this point.
[00:28:28]  Right.
[00:28:28]  It's very clear.
[00:28:29]  It makes total sense.
[00:28:30]  It's obvious.
[00:28:31]  I mean, that we need a change is when he's talking about his grad school and all of those people doing one thing, and it's like, oh!
[00:28:40]  That makes perfect sense, obviously.
[00:28:43]  It is not this guy trying to steal the powers of the government in order to create a super virus that will wipe out humanity.
[00:28:50]  No.
[00:28:51]  So it's not that?
[00:28:52]  It's not that.
[00:28:53]  Okay.
[00:28:54]  So here's the fourth clip.
[00:28:55]  This is Fauci, and this is from 42 minutes.
[00:28:58]  Okay.
[00:28:58]  So we're jumping around 10 minutes.
[00:29:00]  We're jumping around quite a bit.
[00:29:01]  Quite a bit.
[00:29:02]  Quite a bit.
[00:29:02]  So we really do have a problem of how the world perceives influenza, and it's going to be very difficult to change that unless you do it from within and say, I don't care what your perception is, we're going to address the problem in a disruptive way and in an iterative way, because you do need both.
[00:29:23]  So, that is out of context, obviously.
[00:29:26]  And it sounds like, you know, people don't take the flu seriously enough, so we're going to make them take it seriously.
[00:29:32]  We're going to teach them a real lesson.
[00:29:33]  And that's not what he was saying at all.
[00:29:36]  It's the diversity of what influenza means to the community.
[00:29:41]  For some people, they get the flu, the real flu, not like I have a stomach flu, but the real flu, they get better.
[00:29:47]  So there's sort of this perception.
[00:29:49]  If it's so serious, how come people get flu each year and it isn't a catastrophe?
[00:29:54]  When you're dealing with a disease like HIV, if you get HIV, it's serious.
[00:29:59]  Whether you're young, whether you're middle-aged, whether you're old.
[00:30:02]  If you get cancer...
[00:30:03]  That's bad.
[00:30:04]  Whether you're young or whether it's intermediate.
[00:30:07]  Whereas with influenza, for some people, they go throughout life, it doesn't impact them at all.
[00:30:12]  There isn't anybody that's afraid of influenza.
[00:30:14]  You go in a focus group and you say, are you afraid of getting HIV if you're at risk?
[00:30:18]  Oh, absolutely.
[00:30:19]  Are you afraid of getting cancer?
[00:30:21]  Absolutely.
[00:30:21]  Are you afraid of the flu?
[00:30:23]  Don't bother me.
[00:30:24]  I mean, that's the reality of how people perceive flu.
[00:30:28]  As Rick said, we're responsible.
[00:30:31]  For a variety of diseases making countermeasures, malaria, tuberculosis, Zika, Ebola, in the middle of Ebola right now.
[00:30:39]  So you go to the DRC where I went to a week and a half ago to visit our sites.
[00:30:46]  And you ask somebody, are you worried about influenza?
[00:30:49]  They'll laugh at you.
[00:30:50]  What are you talking about influenza?
[00:30:52]  They don't vaccinate their people for influenza because they have enough problems with malaria and tuberculosis and now Ebola.
[00:30:59]  So it is a perception, which is a misperception, that it is not a serious disease.
[00:31:04]  But as Casey said...
[00:31:06]  Hundreds of thousands of people die of it each year, and when you get a pandemic, millions and millions of people.
[00:31:13]  So we really do have a problem of how the world perceives influenza, and it's going to be very difficult to change that unless you do it from within and say, I don't care what your perception is, we're going to address the problem in a disruptive way.
[00:31:30]  And in an iterative way, because you do need both.
[00:31:33]  So essentially, if you take the entire context of the clip into consideration, what he's saying is that there's not going to be public pressure ever really to deal with the flu.
[00:31:44]  The influenza vaccine that would possibly be something that could be created isn't going to come from people who are like, I'm terrified of getting the flu.
[00:31:53]  No one's calling their representative being like, if you guys don't fund flu research right now.
[00:31:58]  Right.
[00:31:59]  And so essentially, what he is advocating is we need to do this from within.
[00:32:04]  The people who are the researchers need to treat the problem as it is, not as people perceive it to be.
[00:32:11]  Right.
[00:32:12]  And that makes total sense, too.
[00:32:13]  Yeah, that's very obvious.
[00:32:15]  Yep.
[00:32:15]  That's not even hard.
[00:32:16]  You could have just guessed that.
[00:32:18]  You could have been like, hey, do people take the flu seriously?
[00:32:22]  No.
[00:32:23]  Is that bad?
[00:32:24]  Probably.
[00:32:24]  The end.
[00:32:25]  Yeah.
[00:32:25]  Got it.
[00:32:26]  So what Alex is doing is taking Fauci's words and doing a magic trick with them.
[00:32:31]  Yeah, obviously.
[00:32:32]  Basically.
[00:32:32]  So here's the fifth clip, which is the one that I strongly suspect is what made Alex cover this clip to begin with.
[00:32:39]  But it is not too crazy to think that an outbreak of a novel avian virus could occur in China somewhere.
[00:32:47]  We could get the RNA sequence from that, beam it to a number of regional centers, if not local, if not even in your home at some point, and print those vaccines.
[00:32:59]  That's a fascinating...
[00:33:03]  idea about technology.
[00:33:05]  That would be so cool.
[00:33:07]  But he mentioned China and vaccines.
[00:33:10]  And there you go.
[00:33:11]  The end.
[00:33:11]  Anyway, here's the full clip.
[00:33:13]  Let's talk about the science a little bit more.
[00:33:15]  Craig Venter, who is a controversial person but interesting to me, has written that he thinks we ought to have a vaccine such that if you take off in a plane from Hong Kong and are infected...
[00:33:30]  By the time your plane lands in New York, there ought to be a vaccine assembled and deliverable to you.
[00:33:37]  How crazy is that?
[00:33:39]  How far away from that are we ever going to get there?
[00:33:43]  I'm not going to say how far away, but I don't think that's too crazy.
[00:33:46]  I think that if we move towards the era of synthetic-based vaccines, I think we remove the dependencies of thinking the vaccine has to be something that we have to grow.
[00:33:58]  If we can grow into something else, an egg or an insect cell, any type of dependency on growth, if we can move into more synthetic, the nucleic acid-based, messenger RNA-based, those sequences can be rapidly shared.
[00:34:13]  around the world.
[00:34:14]  Enzymes that can synthesize the small fragments of messenger RNA necessary to go into vaccine can be made in a shoebox size system right now, which is translatable into a 3D printer-like or inkjet printer-like thing.
[00:34:30]  Now putting those In a system to print those on a patch that a self-administered vaccine could happen.
[00:34:37]  The technologies are out there.
[00:34:39]  We haven't demonstrated their true effectiveness and ability for a vaccine.
[00:34:43]  But it is not too crazy to think that an outbreak of a novel avian virus could occur in China somewhere.
[00:34:51]  We could get the RNA sequence from that, beam it to a number of regional centers.
[00:34:58]  If not local, if not even in your home at some point, and print those vaccines on a patch and self-administer.
[00:35:06]  We're a ways out, but the technology is there to be adapted, assembled, to put in that futuristic view of a rapid response to an emerging novel threat.
[00:35:16]  That doesn't prove shit for Alex.
[00:35:19]  It's just the weakest bombshell I've seen him try to pass off.
[00:35:23]  Like, you hear that, and it's like, oh, they're discussing hypothetical breakthroughs of technology.
[00:35:29]  And I need to make this very fully clear.
[00:35:32]  Yeah.
[00:35:33]  It's very specifically in the context of universal flu vaccine.
[00:35:38]  Yeah.
[00:35:38]  The entirety of it has nothing to do with coronavirus.
[00:35:43]  The way that Alex has been, they're saying they planned it!
[00:35:45]  Nope.
[00:35:46]  Like, nothing.
[00:35:46]  Nothing matches.
[00:35:47]  This is a different virus.
[00:35:48]  And nothing matches the idea that they were planning something.
[00:35:51]  Yeah.
[00:35:51]  Oh, he said China!
[00:35:52]  They're going to stage an outbreak in order to get us to take this new technology.
[00:35:57]  No, they're discussing...
[00:35:59]  New technology.
[00:36:01]  That's what they're doing.
[00:36:01]  I swear to you, I cannot believe that you can't sell people on this.
[00:36:09]  Okay.
[00:36:10]  Take $10 billion away from the military.
[00:36:14]  They won't even fucking notice.
[00:36:16]  They don't have an accounting process.
[00:36:18]  Apparently not.
[00:36:19]  Put it towards making universal flu vaccine printers that you can have in your house.
[00:36:28]  That's incredible.
[00:36:30]  Yeah, Alex would have a problem with that.
[00:36:32]  Everybody, everybody.
[00:36:34]  But more importantly, the only people who have a problem with it now are big corporations who can't sell that.
[00:36:41]  Probably.
[00:36:42]  So one of the things that I think is really fascinating is that I watched this whole...
[00:36:46]  This whole panel.
[00:36:48]  And there's stuff that was very intentionally ignored.
[00:36:51]  There's one comment that's incredibly bizarre that they left out considering that they cut out clips from before and after this in the panel discussion.
[00:37:00]  I wonder why they didn't include this.
[00:37:03]  I mean, we're in this room, we're probably vaccinologists, we're probably immunologists, we're probably working on some vaccine, made some vaccine at some point in our life, but we're not the chemical engineers or the other engineers or the anthropologists or others who bring critical insight on how you disrupt and deconstruct an age-old problem.
[00:37:22]  I mean, we've had these vaccines for 70 years, so this is an age-old construct that requires those creative chefs to come out of the kitchen and deconstruct the carrot cake and make it look like...
[00:37:33]  It's like something different but the best carrot cake you've ever eaten in your entire life.
[00:37:36]  We need that for an influenza vaccine.
[00:37:39]  And we also need to not forget that for influenza, vaccines aren't the only part of the solution.
[00:37:47]  I mean, it's so easy to get caught up.
[00:37:49]  If you want to get sexy and influenza, you do stay in the vaccine space.
[00:37:52]  But if you go into the diagnostic space or the therapeutic space or non-pharmaceutical intervention, those are the early steps that will make a huge impact on bending that epidemic curve for seasonal and a pandemic outbreak.
[00:38:05]  And so we have to have that single focus on stopping influenza, not only on making a vaccine.
[00:38:14]  Oh, that's weird.
[00:38:15]  So you're saying that they don't necessarily want to only make a vaccine.
[00:38:20]  They want to use multiple treatment options.
[00:38:23]  Yeah, it's almost like they're public health professionals and experts who are discussing ways of treating a problem and dealing with a problem as opposed to what Alex is presenting it as, which is they want to just put jabs in everybody.
[00:38:35]  It is ironic that he is describing...
[00:38:38]  The antithesis to Alex.
[00:38:40]  You know that, like, the creative chef who can come in and turn an amazing carrot cake into something that you don't think is a carrot cake and you can eat deliciously without being like, carrot cake is shit.
[00:38:51]  Right?
[00:38:52]  Alex is the person who takes an amazing carrot cake that won't get you fucking killed by a virus and then goes, that carrot cake is going to kill you!
[00:39:01]  True.
[00:39:02]  It's the same job!
[00:39:03]  Yeah, yeah.
[00:39:04]  He's asking for the anti-Alex!
[00:39:05]  So, I watched this and I saw the clips that Alex used.
[00:39:09]  I just think this is one of the just weakest attempts I've seen to make a bombshell out of something.
[00:39:15]  Oh, this does not get a D-grade.
[00:39:17]  No, I don't think that the staff needed to stay till 8. To get this kind of work done, because this sucks.
[00:39:23]  Yeah.
[00:39:24]  I think that the...
[00:39:25]  I also enjoyed watching the actual presentation.
[00:39:29]  Yeah.
[00:39:29]  So I appreciate Alex bringing that to my attention.
[00:39:32]  That's nice.
[00:39:32]  But this is the smoking gun.
[00:39:36]  This is the smoking gun of smoking guns.
[00:39:38]  You bet.
[00:39:38]  What you just played for me...
[00:39:40]  Yes.
[00:39:40]  ...is the smoking gun of all smoking guns.
[00:39:42]  The smoking gun of smoking guns of smoking guns.
[00:39:45]  And when you add it to...
[00:39:47]  Peter Daszak and the Wuhan lab and Fauci and in the thousands of emails now saying gain of function, merge four viruses, then add the HIV spike protein, which is the COVID-19 virus.
[00:39:58]  It is just unbelievably open and shut that they did this.
[00:40:04]  Wow.
[00:40:04]  I mean, if it's the smoking gun of smoking guns of smoking guns...
[00:40:08]  Why do you have to edit it so hard?
[00:40:09]  There's that.
[00:40:10]  And then there's also a question of why do you need all of these other...
[00:40:16]  Narratives.
[00:40:17]  That's a good question.
[00:40:18]  Why do you have to combine all of it together for it to be even marginally persuasive if this is the smoking gun of smoking guns?
[00:40:24]  Yeah.
[00:40:25]  Stupid.
[00:40:26]  It does seem, though, that if that is the smoking gun of smoking guns, then we can at least be sure he's only going to talk about that narrative from here on out, because that's the one.
[00:40:34]  I mean, it's got to be the most important thing.
[00:40:36]  It's got to be the only important thing.
[00:40:37]  Yeah, he would probably take most of the, you know, the rest of this episode.
[00:40:41]  At least the rest of the segment.
[00:40:43]  Well, I mean, he does talk about it for a little while.
[00:40:45]  Okay.
[00:40:45]  And actually, yeah, I completely agree with you.
[00:40:48]  If this is the smoking gun, he should be talking about it all day.
[00:40:50]  Non-stop!
[00:40:51]  It's the only important thing!
[00:40:53]  And he should play...
[00:40:54]  Three hour show.
[00:40:55]  He could play the entire thing and still have two hours left.
[00:40:59]  The point of a smoking gun is that you no longer need evidence past the gun being smoking.
[00:41:06]  It's because it's smoking.
[00:41:07]  It's smoking?
[00:41:08]  That they just shot someone.
[00:41:09]  You've just shot someone.
[00:41:11]  There's nobody who's like, okay, but now let's go find out where his shoes came from.
[00:41:17]  No.
[00:41:17]  We got him.
[00:41:18]  We've got the smoking gun.
[00:41:19]  Open and shut case.
[00:41:20]  The end.
[00:41:21]  Let's just go get it done.
[00:41:22]  Shut up.
[00:41:23]  Keep digging.
[00:41:23]  No!
[00:41:24]  We've got it!
[00:41:27]  Look, we make money on clues, not on solving cases here.
[00:41:31]  Oh man, that does sound right for the cops though.
[00:41:34]  So Alex believes that not only did Fauci do this, there was a specific target.
[00:41:39]  Okay.
[00:41:40]  Was it Alex?
[00:41:41]  No, it's the countries that Alex thinks are white.
[00:41:43]  And they hit their primary targets.
[00:41:46]  Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Europe, the UK, the US.
[00:41:49]  Because...
[00:41:50]  We have a background of free market and right to self-defense and Christianity and individualism that is against the globalist system.
[00:41:58]  So we've been targeted with propaganda and abortion and Satanism and multiculturalism.
[00:42:03]  I'm sorry, how?
[00:42:04]  And now they're hitting us with the actual bioweapon.
[00:42:08]  No one else is taking it.
[00:42:09]  That's just not true.

=== Affordable Alternatives Limit Vaccination (01:39) ===

[00:42:11]  Did he just make a slippery slope argument that the first...
[00:42:14]  Look, if you force people...
[00:42:17]  To recognize that race is a fucking social construct and has nothing to do and we're all just the same people all the time.
[00:42:23]  What's next?
[00:42:24]  Bioweapons?
[00:42:25]  Probably.
[00:42:25]  So the message that Alex is trying to send is that the mRNA vaccines are a weapon and they're being deployed against the countries that he sees as Christian and white.
[00:42:33]  That's the subtext here.
[00:42:34]  It's very clear.
[00:42:35]  This is all just his own white persecution complex talking, though, since countries all over the world have authorized the use of both the Pfizer and Moderna shots.
[00:42:43]  When you get right down to it, it's really just about money.
[00:42:46]  Very few countries have the ability to actually manufacture mRNA vaccines and the companies that do aren't sharing that shit because it would cut into their profits.
[00:42:55]  The lower-income countries can't afford to buy large amounts of these vaccines for their population, so they may go with less effective but more affordable alternatives, or maybe just not able to vaccinate a vast majority of the public.
[00:43:07]  Anyway, this is just a load of bullshit, and the only real message Alex is trying to spread here is that white people are under attack, because that's the theme of this show.
[00:43:13]  Yeah, it did go to white people a lot faster than I was expecting.
[00:43:17]  I didn't go faster than I expected.
[00:43:20]  No, I mean...
[00:43:20]  I expected to go immediately.
[00:43:22]  No, no, no.
[00:43:23]  That I understand.
[00:43:24]  I meant more in the context of the sentence he was saying.
[00:43:27]  I was like, we're talking about bioweapons.
[00:43:29]  It's all about bioweapons.
[00:43:31]  They're trying to kill other people.
[00:43:32]  Multiculturalism.
[00:43:33]  Wait, what?
[00:43:34]  Now it's race?

=== Why Villains Monologue (04:26) ===

[00:43:35]  That was fast!
[00:43:36]  That was fast!
[00:43:37]  So, look.
[00:43:39]  Fauci's on this fucking tape.
[00:43:41]  Yeah.
[00:43:41]  From 2019.
[00:43:42]  Right.
[00:43:43]  And he's bragging.
[00:43:44]  Smoking gun.
[00:43:45]  Bragging.
[00:43:45]  He's bragging about how they're going to stage this pandemic in order to bring in jabs.
[00:43:50]  I didn't hear that, but okay.
[00:43:51]  You know why he did that?
[00:43:53]  Because that's what villains in movies do.
[00:43:55]  But wait!
[00:43:56]  Why do villains in movies do it?
[00:43:58]  Because they're based off of people like Fauci.
[00:43:59]  You bet.
[00:44:01]  I'm about to cover the depopulation-ish and the admissions, the facts, the public statements of Fauci, the arrogance of these criminals.
[00:44:11]  Hiding in plain view.
[00:44:13]  Because remember, art imitates life.
[00:44:16]  So why in so many movies with villains or sci-fi films or dystopic films does the villain brag about what they do?
[00:44:26]  Because that happens in history.
[00:44:28]  They love to monologue about what they're planning very thinly veiled in front of you before they do it.
[00:44:39]  Just like the Riddler or the Joker will break in on TV or radio and tell you he's sending you a treat that'll come knocking in the night in the form of...
[00:44:53]  So that it makes it more fun, like the Zodiac Killer.
[00:44:56]  So typically, villains bragging in movies is done as an easy way to fill in gaps in the plot with big exposition cups.
[00:45:02]  Yeah, it's a huge exposition.
[00:45:03]  That's what it is.
[00:45:04]  That's typically the narrative function of it.
[00:45:07]  Yeah, it's the movie telling you what the movie did.
[00:45:10]  Yeah, it's also really convenient because it gives the writer a way to create a situation where the hero is dead to rights and the villain is all but one, but because of hubris, the hero is able to wiggle out of the situation.
[00:45:20]  It's classic.
[00:45:21]  Hubris is Kroosh.
[00:45:22]  The Riddler sent out Riddles because that was his whole character.
[00:45:25]  He's just a dude who's obsessed with puzzles and decided that Batman was the best person to test his abilities against.
[00:45:30]  Yes.
[00:45:31]  The Riddler is not a good choice for Alex to use as an example.
[00:45:34]  In Batman Forever, the Riddler actually worked for Bruce Wayne until Bruce Wayne neglected him or he had an accident or something, and then Riddles everywhere.
[00:45:42]  Look, there's a lot of different variations of characters, but he gives out Riddles because he's the Riddler.
[00:45:47]  He's the Riddler.
[00:45:47]  That's what he does.
[00:45:48]  As for the Joker, he's criminally insane.
[00:45:51]  There was...
[00:45:51]  There was that.
[00:45:52]  There was that.
[00:45:54]  Anyway, this is just a ton of shit, but Alex thinks he's living in a spy movie, so it should come as no surprise that he imagines his pretend villains are taunting him like a Bond villain.
[00:46:02]  Yeah.
[00:46:03]  It's just really sad to see the lengths he has to go to create the impression that they're actually doing that, though.
[00:46:07]  This bombshell today is a particularly weak example of that.
[00:46:11]  He just sees people taunting him at all corners.
[00:46:14]  It's sad.
[00:46:15]  Yeah, it does feel like, you know, movies are realer than the reality you see.
[00:46:20]  To him.
[00:46:21]  Yeah, exactly.
[00:46:22]  In real life, you don't monologue because that would waste time.
[00:46:27]  Look, they assassinated Khashoggi.
[00:46:34]  They didn't fucking monologue.
[00:46:36]  You know what would be interesting is if you are a villain and you're about to commit your crime and you monologue and then you're like...
[00:46:42]  That didn't feel as good as I thought it would.
[00:46:44]  I gotta do that one again.
[00:46:46]  You know what?
[00:46:46]  I thought that would really be exciting to monologue my crime out.
[00:46:51]  Right.
[00:46:51]  Because normally I don't do it.
[00:46:52]  That only happens in movies.
[00:46:53]  Yeah, yeah.
[00:46:53]  But I thought I'd really step into those shoes.
[00:46:56]  Totally.
[00:46:57]  And you know what?
[00:46:58]  It left me cold.
[00:46:59]  I don't feel fulfilled.
[00:47:01]  It's a real bummer.
[00:47:01]  It's a real bummer.
[00:47:02]  Yeah.
[00:47:02]  It's like meeting your heroes.
[00:47:04]  You never want to meet your heroes and you never want to perform a monologue in a non-monologue situation.
[00:47:08]  Or maybe that's a sign that you need to check.
[00:47:12]  If you're depressed.
[00:47:13]  If you're a villain and you monologue and it doesn't feel good, maybe you're not enjoying the things that you would have.
[00:47:19]  Oh my god, can you imagine that on one of those Abilify commercials or whatever?
[00:47:22]  Are you a villain?
[00:47:25]  Monologue's not doing it for you these days!
[00:47:27]  Yeah.
[00:47:28]  I do think it's really silly that Alex believes this.
[00:47:31]  That is bananas.
[00:47:32]  Yep.
[00:47:33]  There's other silly things that Alex believes that are actually much more fucked up and dangerous, though.
[00:47:38]  And then in 8.15...
[00:47:41]  1815, at the Battle of Waterloo, Lord Wellington defeated in his British-Prussian pincer attack.

=== Rothschild's Shares in Waterloo (02:54) ===

[00:47:50]  Napoleon Bonaparte and he sent carrier pigeons to the coast on fast Corvette ships across to announce that morning that Lord Wellington had lost the war.
[00:48:01]  And the British stock market plunged by 99%.
[00:48:05]  Rothschild, of course, began selling right up front.
[00:48:08]  Everybody panicked and began selling.
[00:48:10]  Then they came in with the news, oh my god, Wellington has lost, British army destroyed, British empire has collapsed, Napoleon rules the earth, and as soon as everybody started selling, he bought it all up.
[00:48:23]  And now, 200 plus years later, that system rules the entire planet.
[00:48:34]  Except for Russia and a few other countries.
[00:48:37]  Wow.
[00:48:38]  So we talked about this in depth in the Endgame coverage, but just as a brief refresher, that story that Alex is telling about Nathan Rothschild is not true.
[00:48:46]  It has its roots in a pamphlet that was distributed by a giant anti-Semite whose pen name was Satan, but it was actually named Georges Derenvale.
[00:48:55]  Right.
[00:48:56]  The pamphlet, released in French, was titled The Edifying and Curious History of Rothschild I, King of the Jews.
[00:49:04]  Sure.
[00:49:10]  would be dramatized in the 1940 Nazi propaganda film The Rothschild's Shares in Waterloo.
[00:49:16]  To put it bluntly, Alex either thinks this fake story is true or he knows it's a lie that's been historically used to incite public hatred And he's passing it along to his audience as the truth anyway.
[00:49:26]  Yeah.
[00:49:26]  I would say whichever is true, Alex is a horrible source of information.
[00:49:30]  And I'd really like to know what Rogan thinks about it.
[00:49:32]  Yeah, that's bananas.
[00:49:34]  Wow, if you're writing a tract with comma king of the Jews and it's not about Solomon...
[00:49:41]  You have already let me know that you're an anti-Semite.
[00:49:44]  Yeah, it's troubling that Alex, in the year 2021, is still peddling this story, because it's been thoroughly debunked, and there's every reason for him to know that this is an anti-Semitic falsehood that has lingered over the years.
[00:49:59]  And it's something that he perpetuates.
[00:50:01]  It's a large part of his worldview, and congratulations to people like Joe Rogan, helping spread that message far and wide.
[00:50:09]  Spread the anti-Semitism wherever you can.
[00:50:10]  I can, Joe Rogan.
[00:50:12]  So, Jordan.
[00:50:12]  Yeah.
[00:50:13]  Let me ask you a question.
[00:50:14]  What's up?
[00:50:14]  Does Alex need money?
[00:50:16]  Well, I mean, in a certain sense, he needs less money because all of it's going to go away, so he should start spending all of it now.
[00:50:25]  Well, let me ask you this.

=== Ritual of the Tiny Bullhorn (05:01) ===

[00:50:27]  What?
[00:50:28]  Has he sold his house?
[00:50:29]  No, he has not.
[00:50:30]  I actually can't tell you whether or not he sold his house.
[00:50:34]  Okay.
[00:50:34]  Although some other stuff might be going up on the block.
[00:50:36]  Okay.
[00:50:37]  And I really want to thank the listeners and viewers for your support because we're under such incredible attack.
[00:50:41]  And I've got a lot of plans and projects in motion working with other folks, partnering with other folks to be able to circumnavigate all the deplatforming and during key junctures be able to pop up and engage the globalists with the truth into this future time we're going, which we're now entered the beginning of.
[00:51:06]  So I need major wartime capital to do this, and that's why you're going to see me on air soon, just because there are little side issues, but they're important.
[00:51:17]  Selling the armored truck.
[00:51:18]  It's been great.
[00:51:19]  Had a lot of great coverage with it.
[00:51:21]  Got a lot of attention with it for our causes, but it's going to be sold.
[00:51:24]  I'm going to sell most of my guns that I don't need.
[00:51:26]  I've got too many that are extra.
[00:51:27]  50 cal, stuff like that.
[00:51:29]  Everything is going to go in to the full energy of the fight, because that's a ritual for me.
[00:51:34]  That I need to sell my house, which is being sold right now, finally, and everything into this, of course I'd want to put all in on the total future of humanity and my children and your children in front of God.
[00:51:46]  I mean, I could spill some blood on there, but that's not that kind of ritual.
[00:51:50]  But it kind of feels like it should be, doesn't it?
[00:51:52]  Because there will be blood spilled.
[00:51:53]  And so, at the end of the day, which we're not looking for, but the enemy's going to bring us into that.
[00:51:57]  Yikes.
[00:51:59]  Yikes.
[00:51:59]  That's not good.
[00:52:00]  No.
[00:52:01]  That's a man who's about to lose all of his money.
[00:52:03]  Maybe a guy who is having buyer's remorse on that tank.
[00:52:07]  I can't believe it took him this long.
[00:52:11]  But it's interesting to hear him say, when he's talking about the tank, we got a lot of attention on it.
[00:52:18]  Got a lot of attention on that tank.
[00:52:19]  That was obviously the goal all along.
[00:52:20]  Yeah, that was the point.
[00:52:22]  Well done.
[00:52:25]  Yeah.
[00:52:26]  This is silly.
[00:52:27]  That's bad.
[00:52:28]  Yeah.
[00:52:28]  He's basically going to have a yard sale.
[00:52:30]  Yeah.
[00:52:31]  Yep.
[00:52:32]  Of.50 cal guns.
[00:52:34]  You know, stuff you want just people buying.
[00:52:37]  I would maybe buy another bullhorn if he has like a tyranny crusher.
[00:52:41]  Yeah, I would.
[00:52:42]  If he has that tiny bullhorn that he used.
[00:52:44]  I would buy that.
[00:52:46]  I don't know if we can find that one.
[00:52:48]  Yeah, but I'd put an offer on the tiny bullhorn.
[00:52:50]  I'll put an offer on the tiny bullhorn.
[00:52:52]  That'd be fun.
[00:52:53]  We'll go to an auction like in Hudson Hawk, and you and I will bid against each other for the tiny bullhorn.
[00:53:01]  That seems counterproductive.
[00:53:03]  So he's doing this plug, basically, where he's talking about he's going to sell his 50 cals and his tank.
[00:53:09]  I think this drifts into what I would describe as sacrilegious territory.
[00:53:13]  Be part of that ritual in front of God.
[00:53:15]  Be part of the resistance.
[00:53:17]  Don't just get great products you need because they make your life better.
[00:53:20]  Fund this war and make sure as we go into this fight, as I walk into that arena with my shield and my sword and I got my helmet on, that we're all together on this because you're that gladiator on the field as well and that we are prepared and trained and well-fed and focused and not distracted to make sure we go in there in the Tom Brady zone.
[00:53:41]  Politically, this is an allegory.
[00:53:43]  What?
[00:53:43]  Cut these enemies down with absolute precision.
[00:53:46]  Total commitment.
[00:53:48]  And so...
[00:53:50]  I'm in maximum push zone.
[00:53:52]  I was born for this.
[00:53:53]  So were you.
[00:53:54]  And we are going to see the whole nine yards now unfold.
[00:53:57]  World government, match extermination, you name it.
[00:53:59]  But through that, we'll have victory, the greatest awakening ever, and coming back to God.
[00:54:04]  So get it at Infowarsstore.com before it sells out.
[00:54:06]  It's going to sell out today.
[00:54:07]  Rainforest ultra-discounted.
[00:54:09]  Yeah, man, you've got to buy his products to take part in the holy ritual in front of God.
[00:54:13]  Man, that's intense.
[00:54:15]  Yeah, this is dumb.
[00:54:16]  Yeah, that reminds me of in World War II when they had celebrities going around trying to get people to buy war bonds and stuff.
[00:54:24]  That was, you know, like, patriotism and, like, we gotta defeat the Nazis and all that stuff.
[00:54:28]  If they were going around being like, listen, you wanna defeat the Nazis?
[00:54:32]  You gotta buy Brain Force.
[00:54:33]  People would have been turned off.
[00:54:35]  It's a ritual.
[00:54:36]  It's a sort of afterlife-involved spiritual ritual to buy my down-and-out sleep aid.
[00:54:47]  Gotta get it now.
[00:54:48]  It's gonna sell out.
[00:54:50]  So, look, he has the bombshell of bombshells, smoking gun of smoking guns.
[00:54:54]  And as we've discussed, you would think he would be like, well, we're going to talk about this all day.
[00:54:58]  It's the only thing to talk about.
[00:54:59]  Well...
[00:54:59]  Do we have personal issues to talk about?
[00:55:02]  Well...
[00:55:02]  Yes, Ted Nugent is at it again, ladies and gentlemen, fighting the tyrants.
[00:55:07]  And here's a quick clip of what we're about to talk about with him.
[00:55:10]  Well, would you speak to the people who believe it is a worthwhile vaccine and it is saving lives?

=== Founding Fathers' Divide (13:43) ===

[00:55:15]  Are they just dead wrong?
[00:55:17]  They've been fed a line from the federal government?
[00:55:20]  Jim, I appreciate the opportunity to speak to the people that went ahead and got the jab.
[00:55:24]  I speak their language.
[00:55:25]  I hate the way he starts.
[00:55:26]  I speak to them.
[00:55:26]  He always starts with this.
[00:55:32]  They understand that.
[00:55:34]  Good bit.
[00:55:35]  Wow.
[00:55:35]  Yep.
[00:55:36]  So Ted Nugent.
[00:55:37]  Oh, great.
[00:55:38]  Well, first thing I want to say, Dan, is thank you so much for giving us the opportunity to listen to Ted Nugent.
[00:55:44]  He's bringing in a lot of different things.
[00:55:46]  He's really doing it.
[00:55:48]  And thank you for that.
[00:55:49]  No problem.
[00:55:50]  I thank Alex for getting rid of the smoking gun of smoking guns to talk to Ted Nugent.
[00:55:57]  I mean, when the Nuge is around.
[00:55:59]  Noted, suspected, uber creep.
[00:56:02]  Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:56:03]  Noted, suspected, confirmed uber creep.
[00:56:06]  Guy who can't seem to stop writing songs about how he wants to fuck minors.
[00:56:10]  Super proudly uber creep.
[00:56:12]  Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:56:15]  I'm going to put that song on an album, the one where I detail my crimes.
[00:56:21]  The narrative in the story for everyone was, on the right wing, was like, no one's getting this for COVID for a long time.
[00:56:30]  It's all a lie.
[00:56:31]  For a long time.
[00:56:31]  Now the sort of fever is broken and everyone can just sort of be like, yeah, everyone I know had it.
[00:56:37]  And Nugent's no exception.
[00:56:40]  The most important point I can bring out is that when my buddies and my...
[00:56:44]  My friends and my hunting buddies and my fellow musicians and my wife, Germaine, and I got it.
[00:56:50]  We went to the frontline doctors, and we did exactly the opposite of what the government told us to do.
[00:56:57]  I'm sorry, Ted, there's no treatment.
[00:57:00]  Bull crap!
[00:57:01]  The frontline doctors recommend, across the board, hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, steroids, and zinc.
[00:57:07]  I've been taking zinc since October of 2019, and I've always taken CDB12, and I've always eaten good and taken good care of myself, clean and sober.
[00:57:15]  I get a lot of exercise.
[00:57:16]  I breathe more wild swamp air than any duck you'll ever meet.
[00:57:20]  And so I was already in good shape.
[00:57:21]  He beats wild swamp?
[00:57:26]  Yeah, so everyone he knows got COVID.
[00:57:42]  And they all took ivermectin and got better.
[00:57:44]  I would wonder if those were PCR-confirmed tests.
[00:57:48]  Did they even get tested?
[00:57:50]  Because I bet they didn't.
[00:57:51]  Who knows?
[00:57:51]  Who cares about their dumb story?
[00:57:54]  It's bullshit.
[00:57:55]  But it's now shifting to everybody saying that everybody got it.
[00:58:01]  That's so weird.
[00:58:02]  And it's fine.
[00:58:04]  Everybody just moves on.
[00:58:06]  So weird.
[00:58:07]  They couldn't deny that it even exists for a year.
[00:58:11]  And all of those people will believe them.
[00:58:14]  And then they can just suddenly say, well, that year, I had COVID in that year.
[00:58:19]  And everybody's like, well, who didn't have COVID?
[00:58:22]  Right.
[00:58:22]  And nobody is just going like, so you were lying to us the whole time!
[00:58:26]  Yeah, and actively spreading.
[00:58:27]  Yeah!
[00:58:28]  Yeah!
[00:58:29]  You know, at your no-mask rallies and stuff.
[00:58:33]  Oh my god, I hate these people so much.
[00:58:36]  Yeah, they're pretty bad.
[00:58:37]  So, one friend of Ted Nugent's who got COVID, unfortunately, apparently didn't believe Ted about the magic of ivermectin.
[00:58:47]  Oh, no!
[00:58:48]  And he died.
[00:58:49]  He's dead.
[00:58:49]  My good friend, one of the greatest Americans that ever drove the asset column of America, Jim Brown from Indiana.
[00:58:57]  Just a great man, Alex.
[00:59:00]  And he died two days ago, and we're still mourning.
[00:59:03]  We are shattered at the loss of our loved ones and our dear friends.
[00:59:07]  And the reason they're dying is because the United States government is the enemy of America.
[00:59:13]  And they worked with the communist Chinese devils to weaponize a virus to hurt.
[00:59:20]  hurt mankind.
[00:59:21]  So the government of the United States and the communist Chinese devils killed my friend Jim, period.
[00:59:29]  All right, Ted.
[00:59:30]  I feel like now that they've admitted everybody had COVID, can't we then...
[00:59:35]  Then just...
[00:59:36]  This can be settled with a simple bet, right?
[00:59:40]  What's that?
[00:59:40]  I bet you take the vaccine and you're fine.
[00:59:43]  You bet that I take the vaccine and I die.
[00:59:46]  Okay.
[00:59:46]  That's the bet.
[00:59:47]  Hmm.
[00:59:48]  I don't think that they would go for that.
[00:59:50]  No, because then they would have to admit that it...
[00:59:52]  That they knew that it was fine.
[00:59:53]  Yeah, probably.
[00:59:54]  Yeah.
[00:59:55]  I just, you know, I hear this, and I can't think of anything other than incitement out of what Ted Nugent's saying.
[01:00:01]  Yeah.
[01:00:02]  My friend died, so we should destroy the American government.
[01:00:05]  Well, if you have somebody who, you know, a loved one who passed away from COVID, then the government killed them, too.
[01:00:12]  They murdered your family member or friend, and so they're the enemy of America, and we need to take out the government.
[01:00:18]  It's a real bad, real bad thing.
[01:00:20]  Wild.
[01:00:21]  Yep.
[01:00:21]  Absolutely wild that you can live like this.
[01:00:23]  Yeah, but you know why Ted Nugent has these thoughts?
[01:00:27]  Why he has these positions?
[01:00:28]  Because he's a lunatic?
[01:00:31]  Swamp air?
[01:00:32]  Yeah, that could be.
[01:00:33]  That could be.
[01:00:34]  A lot of ducks have problems determining reality as well.
[01:00:38]  I would say that if you listen to Ted, he would tell you that it's because he practices critical thinking.
[01:00:46]  Now, I'm thinking critically about this next clip that I'm about to play.
[01:00:49]  Uh-huh.
[01:00:50]  It goes off the rails pretty fast.
[01:00:53]  Watch how quickly this turns to talking about the Great Replacement.
[01:00:57]  Sure.
[01:00:58]  Critical thinking is the DNA of freedom demanding we the people.
[01:01:03]  The experiment in self-government that is unique in the history of humankind here in the United States of America.
[01:01:09]  The Founding Fathers critically fought against the king.
[01:01:13]  The founding fathers critically thought against the arbitrary, punitive, and capricious and demonic rules that the king forced upon its subjects.
[01:01:22]  So they wrote down what they knew instinctively to be free, to be right, the gift of individual rights from God.
[01:01:29]  That's called the Constitution, the Bill of Rights.
[01:01:30]  Well, right now, if you're a critical thinker, if you're a good American, if you critically think, the entrepreneurs, the people in the arena, in the swirling dust of battle, the entrepreneurs that take risks and make sacrifices to start a new business and to employ people, the economic engine of the greatest quality of life in the history of the world, those critical thinkers are being punished and ostracized.
[01:01:54]  If you're a critical thinker and you're suspicious of the government, which you have to be, if you're honest, you have to be suspicious of everything about this government right now more than ever.
[01:02:04]  And if you are a critical thinker, you can't shop, you can't go to work, you can't go to school.
[01:02:10]  If you turn down the most offensive, forced medicine in the history of the world where the government says, "You have to take this shot or you can't go to the movies, you can't eat, you can't have a job, you can't go to school, you can't travel, you can't live." We're not forcing it upon you, but you can't have a life without it.
[01:02:26]  Those critical thinkers are being punished and ostracized while we are importing desperate people from around the world.
[01:02:34]  There we go.
[01:02:35]  Are you using critical thinking now?
[01:02:39]  We are witnessing the orchestration of an invasion of America by the government of the United States of America.
[01:02:47]  Make that perfectly clear.
[01:02:49]  The government, the entire gang of Democrat Marxists infesting our government are orchestrating the invasion of America through our southern border because those people will blindly obey the Democrats.
[01:03:05]  Holy shit.
[01:03:06]  Wow.
[01:03:07]  That took some turns.
[01:03:08]  Yeah.
[01:03:09]  That was two minutes long, and he started by rambling about critical thinking.
[01:03:14]  Critical thinking is what the Founding Fathers used as a weapon against the king.
[01:03:19]  And within two minutes, we're on replacement.
[01:03:22]  Yeah, now they're shipping in...
[01:03:24]  The Democrats want to replace the Americans with foreigners that they can control.
[01:03:29]  I wish we could get rid of the American legend so much.
[01:03:33]  I wish we could get rid of the American legend, because the American Revolution was dumb.
[01:03:39]  Here's what happened.
[01:03:40]  The king stole land from the Native Americans, and then the, quote, founding fathers stole it from the king.
[01:03:47]  Nobody's a good guy here.
[01:03:49]  That's it.
[01:03:50]  Yeah, I mean, granted, there's a little more nuance than that, but that is a more to-the-point version of the story.
[01:03:58]  So, look, these founding fathers, they'd be super into Alex, according to Ted Nugent, who also says that Alex has a T-Rex ball sack.
[01:04:07]  Sure.
[01:04:07]  There's some good folks still left the Pentagon.
[01:04:09]  They have their Project Solace run by the big AI system.
[01:04:13]  It found that the majority of deaths and hospitalizations were from the vaccinated and that it's destroying their immune system and creating a syndrome called ADE that over time kills about 80% of people that develop it, Ted.
[01:04:26]  I mean, this is from the Pentagon's own Project Solace.
[01:04:29]  What do you make of that?
[01:04:31]  Well, number one, we, the people, salute you, Alex, Joe, because you got a team.
[01:04:39]  The Shining Coast.
[01:04:40]  And you're what the Founding Fathers wanted all Americans to be.
[01:04:46]  Suspicious of all authority.
[01:04:49]  And you don't do it being spirited, but you look into it.
[01:04:52]  And before the government can hide their own findings, you expose the findings that support everything you and I believe in and talk about and destroys what they call misinformation because the guaranteed misinformation on planet Earth...
[01:05:12]  So we talked about that Project Salas on the last episode.
[01:05:15]  Alex is just lying about that.
[01:05:17]  Ted Nugent has no idea what he's talking about.
[01:05:19]  No clue.
[01:05:19]  But look, here's the point I want to make.
[01:05:21]  It's all good and well to be suspicious, but that's not what Alex and Ted are.
[01:05:25]  This isn't suspicion.
[01:05:26]  This is coming to a predetermined conclusion and then being combative about anything that doesn't align with that conclusion.
[01:05:32]  It just so happens that the conclusion that they've arrived at is that the government is evil, so it's easy to paint anyone who doesn't agree with them as blind sheep, but that's just a trick.
[01:05:42]  That's just a sleight of hand trick.
[01:05:44]  When someone The appropriate next step is to search for corroborating or disqualifying information.
[01:05:51]  So you can evaluate that suspicion.
[01:05:53]  For instance, when I heard Alex covering that C-SPAN clip from Fauci...
[01:05:57]  I had a suspicion that he wasn't telling the truth about it, so the only way to deal with that productively was to find the raw video and assess it for myself.
[01:06:04]  I feel like what you should have done is none of that and blamed the American government for giving him those clips.
[01:06:12]  Ultimately, it turned out that my suspicion was merited and that Alex was lying his ass off.
[01:06:16]  It would have been probably fine for me to just hear him talking about this clip and say I'm sure he's lying, but without learning more, I would be being lazy about reaching that conclusion and it wouldn't be based on it.
[01:06:26]  anything.
[01:06:27]  This show would be really stupid if we just played clips of Alex and said nope without getting into the details of the stories.
[01:06:33]  It's good to have a healthy distrust and a level Yeah.
[01:06:38]  That's...
[01:06:39]  I'm not going to argue with that.
[01:06:40]  The problem is that what Ted is calling suspicion is actually just him being lazy about rationalizing his knee-jerk anti-government positions.
[01:06:48]  And then he's like, oh, you go out there and you find the sources that prove what we knew all along was right.
[01:06:54]  No, Alex finds things and lies about them in such a way to make them reinforce the conclusions that you came to ahead of time.
[01:07:02]  That's the game that's being played.
[01:07:03]  And I don't believe that Ted doesn't know that.
[01:07:06]  Well, maybe not.
[01:07:07]  Yeah, Ted cannot know things.
[01:07:08]  I think Ted is more than capable of not knowing things.
[01:07:11]  He did write Wango Tango.
[01:07:13]  Yeah, he's got a real gift for not knowing what it is he's talking about.
[01:07:18]  But he has adjectives, and that's important.
[01:07:20]  Yes, he does.
[01:07:21]  If you bring adjectives, you don't need knowledge.
[01:07:23]  He has an annoying-ass cadence.
[01:07:25]  Oh, I hate him.
[01:07:26]  So look, we got the smoking gun, smoking guns, smoking guns.
[01:07:29]  Sure.
[01:07:29]  Well, it's not that good of evidence.
[01:07:31]  We had to talk to Ted.
[01:07:33]  Because he's a star.
[01:07:35]  He wrote Wango Tango.
[01:07:37]  Yeah, he's going to get the information out.
[01:07:39]  Right, right.
[01:07:40]  Yeah.
[01:07:40]  So now it's time to really get down to business.
[01:07:42]  Okay.
[01:07:43]  Oh, no, it's not.
[01:07:43]  We have another guest.
[01:07:44]  So, Dr. Barlow, thanks for joining us in the middle of your busy schedule.
[01:07:49]  Alex, thank you.
[01:07:50]  Your listeners are getting facts.
[01:07:52]  They're getting science.
[01:07:54]  Hashtag science.
[01:07:55]  Science matters.
[01:07:56]  And what you're giving people is useful information instead of propaganda talking points.
[01:08:03]  I want to thank you for your diligence, for your tenacity, for not giving up when people have tried to destroy you over and over again.
[01:08:12]  You can't keep a good man down.
[01:08:15]  Alex Jones is a good man.
[01:08:16]  So Dr. Bartlett is the person who Alex keeps mentioning as the guy who wrote in the prescriptions for things like ivermectin.
[01:08:22]  Right.
[01:08:23]  He's made a bunch of waves by claiming that the inhalable steroid budesonide is a, quote, silver bullet against COVID, which is not true.
[01:08:31]  Oh, boy.
[01:08:31]  There may be some positive effects that a patient could get from the steroid, but in terms of being a cure, which is his claim, there isn't evidence to support that.
[01:08:39]  There's not a lot to say about this dude.

=== Ventilator Survival Rates Controversy (05:02) ===

[01:08:41]  He's just using the same kind of game that everyone in Alex's world does.
[01:08:44]  Patients that get better with his steroids are remembered, and the ones that don't conveniently get forgotten.
[01:08:49]  So the claim of a miracle cure can keep being made, and everyone's trying to cover up the budesonide and whatever.
[01:08:56]  Hey, you know what?
[01:08:56]  All you need to do is claim a miracle cure, because sometimes that's how we get Kellogg's cereal.
[01:09:02]  Sure.
[01:09:03]  You haven't thought about that.
[01:09:05]  Maybe Kellogg's cereal is our original down and out.
[01:09:10]  Oh, could be.
[01:09:11]  I'll think about this.
[01:09:12]  Here's something for you to think about.
[01:09:14]  Dr. Richard Bartlett is our guest.
[01:09:17]  We just had Ted Nugent on, and they're both saying the same thing.
[01:09:20]  We've got to educate people, we've got to warn people that if you just go and get a ventilator put on you, you're probably going to die.
[01:09:28]  Or they say 92% of people in New York that got put on one died, or was it 94?
[01:09:33]  I had a suspicion about this, so I decided to look into it.
[01:09:36]  So this is a stat that was from a study that was put out in April 2020.
[01:09:40]  So it really only captured the beginning of the pandemic response.
[01:09:43]  They found that in their data set of patients, 1,151 of them needed to be put on mechanical ventilators.
[01:09:50]  They only knew the medical outcomes of 320 of these patients, and of these, 88% had died.
[01:09:56]  That number does sound really high, but there's a couple important points that you need to remember.
[01:10:01]  The first is that if you're needing to go on a daily basis, you're going to be able to do that.
[01:10:03]  And you may have a higher likelihood of dying regardless of ventilation.
[01:10:16]  Yeah, that's how it works.
[01:10:19]  Yeah, that's how it works.
[01:10:35]  since they don't have a final outcome yet, which is to say they hadn't died or been discharged from the hospital.
[01:10:41]  These 831 people were still in the hospital, and depending how their cases went, the number could be a lot different.
[01:10:47]  If they'd included these people in the calculation, then at that point, only approximately 25% of the people put on ventilators with COVID had died, which is a big difference.
[01:10:57]  Other data sets from around this time, from places like Vanderbilt and Emory University, showed death rates that are right in that ballpark of 25 to 30. The point here is that Alex should get into some critical thinking.
[01:11:09]  It might help him out.
[01:11:10]  Yeah, that could go a long way.
[01:11:11]  Instead of reading and repeating statistics that he's not putting into a proper context.
[01:11:16]  They sound nice.
[01:11:17]  But I mean, why would he?
[01:11:19]  Oh, it's a bad idea.
[01:11:20]  But why would he when he's surrounded by experts like this Dr. Bartlett who's playing fast and loose with fucking details?
[01:11:26]  He's one of the most prestigious doctors in the world.
[01:11:28]  So prestigious.
[01:11:28]  Did you know that?
[01:11:29]  I did know that because Alex told me.
[01:11:31]  Yeah.
[01:11:31]  You need to use your brain, your training, your experience, and this is going to send a shiver down their spines right now.
[01:11:36]  But if you go to the NIH...
[01:11:38]  Budesonite guidelines for COVID treatment, Budesonite is talked about.
[01:11:44]  And they don't know that because they don't read these things.
[01:11:47]  They don't educate themselves.
[01:11:48]  So this is true, actually.
[01:11:50]  Budesonite is mentioned in the NIH's COVID treatment guidelines in the section titled, quote, immunomodulators under evaluation for the treatment of COVID-19.
[01:11:59]  It's something that they think merits evaluation, which is a little different than Bartlett's silver bullet claim.
[01:12:05]  Budesonide is mentioned 39 times in the entire 365-page document, like in this passage from page 217.
[01:12:13]  Quote, there is insufficient evidence for the panel to recommend either for or against the use of inhaled budesonide for the treatment of COVID-19.
[01:12:21]  Most of the other times it comes up is in the context of the guidelines discussing studies that looked at budesonide's effectiveness in treating COVID and how the studies were inconclusive and further research was required.
[01:12:31]  The fact that the drug is mentioned in the guidelines means nothing, but it's the sort of thing that a con man might say if he wanted to make the audience think that even the NIH admits that this is a silver bullet, which is the game that's being played by Dr. Bartlett here on Alex's show.
[01:12:46]  I think something that they'd never consider about the way they view science, right, is if science actually worked the way that they think it does, we would get a new miracle cure for everything.
[01:13:00]  Every few months.
[01:13:01]  Every scientist would constantly be like, I saw it fix one patient, we got the miracle cure!
[01:13:07]  Every single...
[01:13:08]  We have a couple anecdotal stories.
[01:13:11]  Totally!
[01:13:12]  It'd be non-stop!
[01:13:13]  Disease is gone.
[01:13:15]  Oh yeah, this one kills everybody.
[01:13:16]  This one doesn't kill anybody.
[01:13:18]  We've cured this.
[01:13:19]  This is all...
[01:13:20]  And then two weeks later, they'd be like, whoops, we didn't, but nobody paid attention.
[01:13:24]  Right, we're on to another thing already.
[01:13:26]  Yeah, it's insane!
[01:13:27]  The idea of if science works like the way they think...

=== Said Things They Didn't Like (15:37) ===

[01:13:30]  We would live a non-stop chaos life.
[01:13:33]  We kind of do.
[01:13:34]  Yeah, that's fair.
[01:13:35]  So, look, we have the smoking gun of smoking gun of smoking guns.
[01:13:38]  But we have to talk to Ted Nugent because he's a celebrity.
[01:13:40]  This is a big time.
[01:13:41]  Right.
[01:13:41]  It's a git.
[01:13:42]  Right.
[01:13:42]  Right.
[01:13:43]  And look.
[01:13:44]  We have to talk to Dr. Bartlett, because he's an important doctor in the world of ivermectin and budesonide.
[01:13:49]  This is important.
[01:13:51]  We have to deal with both the origins of the pandemic and the treatment of it now.
[01:13:56]  It's responsible.
[01:13:57]  Totally.
[01:13:57]  So now that that's out of the way, we can get to talking about the smoking gun or the smoking gun or the smoking gun.
[01:14:01]  It's about time.
[01:14:02]  Well, actually, I'm sorry.
[01:14:03]  Oh, no.
[01:14:04]  I'll tell you all about what happened to him next segment.
[01:14:06]  He's a very well-known comic, and I've seen him on Ladder with Crowder.
[01:14:09]  Derek Richards has been banned from a comedy tour.
[01:14:13]  We'll give you the details of that because, well, the online control freaks, the left said that he said some things they didn't like.
[01:14:20]  It's always like talking to folks that are being censored.
[01:14:22]  Oh, man.
[01:14:23]  Said some things they didn't like.
[01:14:25]  Another comedian who's going to have to make a half-hour special about how they aren't allowed to say things.
[01:14:29]  I never get to talk.
[01:14:30]  You can't turn this off.
[01:14:34]  I can't talk so much.
[01:14:36]  So here's the situation.
[01:14:37]  There was a tour of military bases put out by the Department of Defense and the American Forces Entertainment.
[01:14:43]  Apparently, Derek Richards was set to perform on this tour, but then a naval officer found some of his old tweets and sent them to the DOD and AFE.
[01:14:51]  From an article in the Daily Dot, quote, This is just sad.
[01:15:09]  While I would be opposed to the DOD and the AFE saying that Richards cannot tweet these things, since that would be, you know, an infringement of free speech kind of thing, I also don't think that they're required to employ him as a comedian if he joked online about killing the president.
[01:15:23]  Yep.
[01:15:24]  Seems like a pretty clear case of behavior that'll get you kicked off a USO tour.
[01:15:27]  It is really funny.
[01:15:28]  I bet it never occurred to him that the DOD would be uncomfortable with that, because in his mind, Trump is the president, and they still work for Trump.
[01:15:39]  Maybe.
[01:15:39]  The idea of him going on a USO tour doesn't make any sense to me because they all work for the guy that you want killed.
[01:15:49]  Do you realize that it changed hands?
[01:15:52]  You know what I'm saying?
[01:15:53]  The DOD would be mad about you tweeting out a...
[01:15:56]  If a Biden supporter...
[01:15:58]  If I was a comic and I was booked to do a USO tour three years ago and I was tweeting out all the things that I was tweeting out three years ago, the DOD would have understandably been like, This is not a good idea.
[01:16:08]  Sure.
[01:16:09]  Yeah.
[01:16:09]  And let's be totally clear, there is a bit of a difference in messaging between, like, I don't like Joe Biden and this meme implying that Mike Lindell would make a better country by killing Joe Biden with a pillow.
[01:16:23]  That one's a little aggressive.
[01:16:25]  Yeah.
[01:16:25]  There is a difference between those things.
[01:16:27]  I don't know.
[01:16:28]  I don't think that it's, like, advocating killing the president to post that meme, but I also don't think that it's...
[01:16:36]  Didn't Kathy Griffin have a head or something?
[01:16:38]  We'll get to that.
[01:16:39]  Oh, okay.
[01:16:39]  We're about to do the whole, it's not fair.
[01:16:43]  I don't think it's as outrageous to imagine that the USO would cancel his appearance on this tour because of this and other tweets that they found objectionable.
[01:16:54]  Totally.
[01:16:54]  It's not a free speech issue.
[01:16:56]  It's not.
[01:16:56]  But whatever.
[01:16:57]  They're not saying he can't tweet.
[01:16:59]  Now, I will say that Derek Richards is...
[01:17:02]  At least he doesn't seem as mad as Alex wants him to be.
[01:17:07]  And I harbor no ill feelings towards Armed Forces Entertainment or the Department of Defense.
[01:17:11]  I mean, at the end of the day, they're a corporation.
[01:17:14]  No, Derek, I understand all that.
[01:17:15]  We understand you're a nice guy.
[01:17:17]  You're the victim here.
[01:17:18]  We're all the victim here.
[01:17:19]  These are lying bullies.
[01:17:21]  I mean, so what if you were a serious Christian or a right-wing Christian and that you thought that homosexuality was a sin?
[01:17:26]  You know, you're not there attacking them at the event you're telling comedy.
[01:17:30]  It should be what your comedy is.
[01:17:31]  And the whole point is, now you've got the LGBT groups attacking people that are straight.
[01:17:36]  So I've always been an open, inclusive guy.
[01:17:38]  But the left and their group are not inclusive now.
[01:17:40]  They're not inclusive of people that are pro-gun or pro-America or pro-Republican.
[01:17:45]  And it's wrong.
[01:17:46]  And so this is tyranny.
[01:17:47]  This is mind control.
[01:17:48]  And what happened to you is BS.
[01:17:51]  And this is all part of the leftist takeover and purge inside the military.
[01:17:55]  You're just a collateral damage of that.
[01:17:58]  Hey, Derek, can you be a little madder, please?
[01:18:00]  Yeah, could you turn this into the biggest, most important issue?
[01:18:02]  Because I do not like conciliatory tone where you think you may be going to get booked on something again, and so you don't want to say, hey, fuck the DOD.
[01:18:11]  Maybe a bad idea.
[01:18:12]  Yeah, that doesn't play.
[01:18:14]  No.
[01:18:14]  We shop in anger here.
[01:18:16]  That's our currency.
[01:18:18]  Yeah, let's be important, Mr. Richards.
[01:18:22]  Your career and its future?
[01:18:24]  Meaningless to me.
[01:18:25]  Right now, important.
[01:18:27]  So I want you to burn it all down.
[01:18:30]  And then maybe I can kind of force you to...
[01:18:33]  I'm like a drug dealer.
[01:18:34]  I can force you to work at InfoWars.
[01:18:35]  Your career is kindling.
[01:18:36]  Yes, exactly.
[01:18:38]  I'd never heard of you before.
[01:18:39]  My intern told me you were on Louder with Crowder.
[01:18:42]  And I will never think of you again.
[01:18:44]  Ever.
[01:18:44]  Yep.
[01:18:45]  Where's the guy who smashed stuff?
[01:18:48]  Where's the guy with the hammer?
[01:18:49]  Yeah, the guy with the hammer.
[01:18:50]  Is he back on?
[01:18:52]  Ricky.
[01:18:52]  How's he doing?
[01:18:53]  He's having a great time?
[01:18:54]  Man, that guy made some great memes, and Alex wanted him to have a job.
[01:18:59]  People with the last name Richards are not having a good year.
[01:19:02]  Mark?
[01:19:03]  Mark Richards.
[01:19:04]  This dude.
[01:19:06]  I don't know.
[01:19:07]  We might as well go back to Captain Mark.
[01:19:09]  That's the same guy that I said?
[01:19:11]  No, oh no, Mike Richards, the Jeopardy host.
[01:19:14]  Oh, I said Mark.
[01:19:15]  Yeah, that's who I was thinking of.
[01:19:17]  So Alex is like, look, they on the left, they insist you have to be punished for telling jokes.
[01:19:26]  But what about Obama?
[01:19:28]  He told jokes at the correspondence dinner.
[01:19:31]  He told jokes about Trump.
[01:19:33]  And then Alex plays a clip of Obama being funny at the correspondence dinner.
[01:19:38]  All kidding aside, obviously we all know about your credentials and breadth of experience.
[01:19:46]  For example, seriously, just recently, in an episode of Celebrity Apprentice at the steakhouse, the men's cooking team did not impress the judges from Omaha Steaks.
[01:20:02]  And there was a lot of blame to go around, but you, Mr. Trump, recognized that the real problem was a lack of leadership, and so ultimately you didn't blame Little John or Meatloaf.
[01:20:16]  You fired Gary Busey.
[01:20:20]  And these are the kind of decisions that would keep me up at night.
[01:20:26]  Yeah, there you go.
[01:20:27]  So Derek Richards, tell us about some of the evil tweets that the Hollywood folks got up in arms over a guy with...
[01:20:34]  4,000 Twitter followers or so.
[01:20:37]  They had to squash you because they've squashed so many others and taken so many others.
[01:20:41]  Such a weird choice to play that that's actually very funny.
[01:20:44]  That's actually very funny.
[01:20:45]  And well-delivered.
[01:20:46]  Yeah, no, no, no.
[01:20:47]  We were laughing.
[01:20:48]  That was well done.
[01:20:49]  I had heard it before and I was laughing.
[01:20:51]  Yeah, it's still very good because it is so absurd.
[01:20:55]  Yeah, and the nuance of the delivery of like, you did not blame Lil Jon.
[01:20:59]  No, yeah, the order.
[01:21:01]  He even did Rule of Threes.
[01:21:03]  This was whoever wrote.
[01:21:04]  That joke was really good.
[01:21:05]  Yeah, definitely.
[01:21:07]  So yeah, I think it's a strange decision for Alex to do that, but whatever.
[01:21:11]  Especially since, here's the difference there.
[01:21:13]  That was Obama making fun of a man for things he did.
[01:21:16]  Yeah, and the reason that Trump would even come up is because he was trying to say that Obama had a fake birth certificate, and he did this whole racist attack against him.
[01:21:26]  Now, if I were Trump...
[01:21:28]  And I had led this whole charge on the fake birth certificate Obama shouldn't be president thing.
[01:21:33]  I would simply not show up to the dinner where Obama's speaking.
[01:21:38]  The wildest truth.
[01:21:39]  You're putting yourself in a position where, hey, maybe he's going to take a shot because you've been really offensive to him for a while.
[01:21:47]  I'd just not go.
[01:21:48]  But Trump decided, I'll go.
[01:21:50]  And then he got mad.
[01:21:51]  And then when he became president, he decided, I will not go.
[01:21:53]  I do not like being made fun of.
[01:21:55]  No.
[01:21:56]  And it is very easy to make fun of.
[01:21:57]  Which is why I surround myself with people who refuse to.
[01:22:01]  So, we're trying to frame this as these liberal Hollywood elites are behind what happened to this guy, this Derek.
[01:22:10]  Why not?
[01:22:10]  It's fair to say that people like Debra Messing, they amplified the calling out of Derek's tweets, but they didn't search it out and try and find it just to destroy this guy.
[01:22:19]  A naval officer named Travis Akers found the tweets because he's stationed in the Middle East.
[01:22:25]  He'd heard about the upcoming tour, and he decided to see who the performers coming over were because he loves stand-up.
[01:22:30]  He found Derek's Twitter, and as he told the Daily Dot, quote, It's fun to pretend that this is just like all fake Hollywood liberal elites being on the warpath, but the reason that this is even being discussed is because this enlisted person was offended by what he saw on Derek's Twitter, and he tagged the DOD in a tweet about it.
[01:22:57]  In order for Alex's outraged machine to run properly, though, that has to be ignored entirely.
[01:23:03]  Oh yeah, you can't have that.
[01:23:04]  Yeah, that detail is not real.
[01:23:06]  Yeah, and it definitely can't also be somebody who was a fan of stand-up, because you've also got that added...
[01:23:12]  He's not funny enough for me to ignore these tweets.
[01:23:16]  That is an insult from him.
[01:23:19]  That is definitely a subtext.
[01:23:23]  Yeah, I would imagine that he would have been like, oh, Dave Chappelle's coming?
[01:23:27]  No need to look into that.
[01:23:28]  Oh, I guess Patrice has said some horrible things.
[01:23:32]  Yes!
[01:23:33]  Patrice, yes!
[01:23:34]  Oh, my God.
[01:23:36]  Oh, boy.
[01:23:37]  So, you were bringing up Kathy Griffin, and this is where she enters the proceedings.
[01:23:41]  Sure.
[01:23:41]  But not before Derek tries to pretend that, hey, man, they misinterpreted my meme.
[01:23:46]  How?
[01:23:47]  Well, this is where we see his comedic chops.
[01:23:49]  Let's hear it.
[01:23:49]  This is comedic chops.
[01:23:51]  There was one where I was told that I was advocating murdering the president because there was a meme.
[01:23:59]  Of Mike Lindell from MyPillow, holding a MyPillow, standing next to President Biden, who was lying in a bed.
[01:24:07]  And so, yeah, that particular one in the upper right-hand corner.
[01:24:11]  And sure, it's like from Godfather 2. It's hilarious.
[01:24:13]  And it says in the headline on it, it says, Make America Great Again.
[01:24:17]  Now, anybody can take that any way they want.
[01:24:20]  But it's obviously a joke.
[01:24:23]  I see it as Mike Lindell clearly saying that...
[01:24:26]  President Biden had an uncomfortable pillow, and he was offering one of his good MyPillows for the president to lay upon.
[01:24:32]  Don't you see that, Alex?
[01:24:33]  I see that.
[01:24:34]  Well, here's the deal.
[01:24:35]  Kathy Griffin did a severed head of Trump, and I think it was a protected speech.
[01:24:39]  She didn't say, go kill him, I want to kill him.
[01:24:41]  That was telegraphed.
[01:24:42]  It didn't cross the line, but almost did.
[01:24:44]  Yours didn't go one-tenth as far as that, and it's obviously good-natured.
[01:24:47]  It's good-natured.
[01:24:48]  I'm going to leave aside anything about that.
[01:24:51]  Fun game that Derek's playing about the tweet.
[01:24:53]  It's mostly because I don't really care about him tweeting this.
[01:24:56]  We can do that all day and it's just a dumb, not funny joke.
[01:25:00]  It does make sense that you'd get kicked off a USO tour for making that kind of joke, though.
[01:25:04]  You're entitled to your free speech, but you're not entitled to be paid to go on a USO tour.
[01:25:08]  Also, Kathy Griffin is probably the last example Alex should be bringing up, because she lost so many jobs after that picture came out.
[01:25:16]  She was fired from CNN, where she'd been one of the hosts of the New Year's Eve show, she got dropped from gigs, and she claims that she wasn't even allowed to fly for two months.
[01:25:25]  And then everybody on the left said, everything is okay.
[01:25:30]  The picture also apparently got Kathy Griffin on the kill list of Caesar Sayoc, the MAGA bomber.
[01:25:36]  I wonder why he would put a target on someone who's relatively obscure and, you know, just released an admittedly possibly distasteful picture.
[01:25:43]  I don't know if this had anything to do with it, but allow me to take you back, Jordan, in my time machine to May 31st, 2017, where we can hear Alex's thoughts and Mike Cernovich's thoughts about Kathy Griffin.
[01:25:55]  Here we go.
[01:25:56]  And then Kathy Griffin comes out.
[01:25:58]  Like an ISIS sympathizer and basically promotes chopping the president's head off.
[01:26:02]  There's a big terrorist connection between Hollywood and ISIS and that Kathy Griffin thing was a direct effigy.
[01:26:09]  It was a direct unconscious message to ISIS to say that we love you and we worship you and that we adore you.
[01:26:16]  That was the whole reason she did that.
[01:26:17]  It was a tribute to ISIS.
[01:26:19]  And then by having Kathy Griffin hold that head with all the blood on it.
[01:26:24]  That was their way of saying, we agree with ISIS.
[01:26:27]  And of course, the fake news media, CNN has not fired Kathy Griffin, which tells me that CNN therefore supports ISIS.
[01:26:35]  I can't reach any other conclusion, do you?
[01:26:37]  CNN's who we're targeting, because she works for CNN.
[01:26:41]  She doesn't just do the ball drop.
[01:26:42]  She's routinely on CNN.
[01:26:44]  She does comedy for them.
[01:26:45]  I see her on there all the time.
[01:26:46]  I don't even watch much CNN.
[01:26:47]  She's a CNN worker.
[01:26:49]  She's a CNN employee.
[01:26:50]  And to fund this, we're going to sell a t-shirt.
[01:26:53]  You also get $1,000 or $2,500.
[01:26:55]  If you're seen wearing the t-shirt on national TV, C-SPAN, your local news, if that then gets picked up nationally or goes viral, I will choose $1,000 or $2,500 until it hits $200,000.
[01:27:09]  Alex and Mike Cernovich were so up in arms about the Kathy Griffin picture that they started a campaign to get people to buy shirts that said CNN is ISIS.
[01:27:18]  And then they paid people to yell that on live TV.
[01:27:21]  The argument, according to these idiots, was that Griffin was signaling to ISIS and if CNN didn't fire her, that means they also support ISIS.
[01:27:29]  It's very, very stupid.
[01:27:31]  And I remember it very clearly.
[01:27:33]  It was a sad day.
[01:27:35]  And I was listening back to this.
[01:27:37]  I was like, hey, where's Mike Cernovich at?
[01:27:39]  Alex hasn't talked to him in a while.
[01:27:41]  Oh, where's Ali Alexander, Alex?
[01:27:43]  Oh, there.
[01:27:45]  So I guess the message Alex wants to give us about free speech is that when a comedian does something that's politically distasteful, it's a travesty when that person is fired if they're on the right wing.
[01:27:55]  However, if they're left wing, you need to offer $200,000 to wage a public pressure campaign to label them as an ISIS sympathizer to get their employee to employer to fire them, lest they be labeled ISIS supporters as well.
[01:28:07]  This is a coherent ideology and totally not Alex just pretending to.
[01:28:12]  to have principles because he's a dumb piece of shit.
[01:28:15]  Yeah, I can't.
[01:28:15]  Also, Oscar Sayoc, he tried to bomb the CNN headquarters in Atlanta, too.
[01:28:21]  So that was strange.
[01:28:23]  Who could have seen that coming?
[01:28:25]  Very weird.
[01:28:25]  Yeah, I've not given a fuck about any right-wing cancel culture bullshit.
[01:28:33]  Mainly because I was alive when the Dixie chick said, war is bad.
[01:28:37]  And then everyone on every side went apeshit for no reason.
[01:28:42]  I think that what she said was, Natalie Mayne said that she was ashamed that the president was from Texas.
[01:28:48]  It's not war is bad.
[01:28:49]  It's slightly different, but I get what you're saying.

=== Unfair Calls Out Cost You (06:36) ===

[01:28:52]  Sorry, it's even less innocuous.
[01:28:55]  It's even more innocuous.
[01:28:58]  Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[01:29:01]  Canceled.
[01:29:02]  Hashtag Dixie Chicks burning party.
[01:29:04]  Burning those CDs.
[01:29:05]  Unreal.
[01:29:06]  Unreal.
[01:29:06]  They're just full of shit.
[01:29:08]  Yep.
[01:29:08]  So Alex, look, he's got the smoking gun of smoking gun of smoking guns, but he needed to talk to Ted Nugent because he's a big star.
[01:29:15]  He needed to talk to Dr. Bartlett because he's a guy who's got medical solutions.
[01:29:19]  And then he needed to talk to this comedian because he got canceled or something.
[01:29:23]  This guy I've never heard of is on a tour that I would have never known happened.
[01:29:27]  Wouldn't have cared either way.
[01:29:29]  Nope.
[01:29:29]  But now, now, it's time to get down to the smoking gun of smoking gun of smoking guns.
[01:29:34]  Okay.
[01:29:35]  It's about time.
[01:29:36]  So, this isn't a game.
[01:29:39]  It's very serious.
[01:29:41]  And it makes me angry that the system's trying to suppress us and trying to cherry-pick things we've said or done out of context to try to silence us.
[01:29:49]  I'm sorry, what?
[01:29:51]  When we're fighting this corrupt, murderous system for all of our futures collectively.
[01:29:55]  So I got a bunch of new breaking news I want to hit.
[01:29:57]  And I want to just say this right now.
[01:30:01]  I salute and I commend and I thank all of our affiliates, the great crew that puts up with me, both the production crew and the rest of the crew here at InfoWars, because I'm an intense person, especially these days, and I want to thank my family, and I want to thank God, of course, most importantly, for a hedge of protection if God deems that that needs to be done.
[01:30:21]  Did you win an Oscar?
[01:30:22]  What is happening?
[01:30:23]  I just want you to know how serious this time is.
[01:30:25]  And how thankful I've been knowing you for 27, 28 years being on air.
[01:30:30]  Some of you have been listening that long.
[01:30:31]  It doesn't matter whether you tuned in today for the first time or you tuned in a month ago or you tuned in five years ago or 27 years ago.
[01:30:36]  I appreciate all of you.
[01:30:38]  This has been one hell of a fight.
[01:30:40]  What?
[01:30:40]  This really sounds like...
[01:30:42]  That's a retirement, right?
[01:30:43]  I mean, it sounds like two things.
[01:30:45]  One, saying goodbye.
[01:30:47]  Yeah.
[01:30:47]  Although I remember like a year ago he recorded his fake last show.
[01:30:50]  Yep.
[01:30:51]  Yep.
[01:30:52]  I'm looking forward to going back and visiting that one.
[01:30:54]  Yeah.
[01:30:54]  So he's sort of pretending he's saying goodbye because it's really dramatic.
[01:30:58]  But it's also like, I know this is a plug.
[01:31:01]  Yeah.
[01:31:01]  I know this is a plug.
[01:31:03]  I was listening to that and I was like, just get to the fucking plug already.
[01:31:06]  Nobody is listening to your thank yous and going, that's genuine.
[01:31:09]  No one.
[01:31:10]  No one cares.
[01:31:11]  It's like, this is going to weave towards the fucking plug.
[01:31:13]  Yes.
[01:31:13]  And so here, I'm going to fast forward about two minutes of him rambling.
[01:31:18]  Two minutes!
[01:31:18]  Yeah.
[01:31:19]  They did this on purpose.
[01:31:20]  You understand Fauci cooked it up and it's all confirmed.
[01:31:22]  You understand they bragged on TV how they did it.
[01:31:24]  And that's now the featured video at Bandai Video.
[01:31:27]  And so, yeah, great.
[01:31:29]  It'll get a couple million views.
[01:31:30]  The globalists see that and go, oh my God, this guy's reaching out.
[01:31:33]  He's busting through the blockade.
[01:31:36]  We got to silence him.
[01:31:37]  And I morally cannot stop what I'm doing.
[01:31:40]  I morally am over the target.
[01:31:43]  And I'm hitting the enemy hard.
[01:31:44]  We're all hitting them together.
[01:31:45]  And I can't pull off.
[01:31:47]  I can't pull off.
[01:31:49]  This bombing run.
[01:31:50]  I've got to just stay here and keep dropping the bombs even though they've got their spotlights on me and they're shooting and they're hitting me.
[01:31:55]  Because they're going to get everybody if we don't stay in this position and just keep attacking with the truth.
[01:32:02]  This isn't like attack a little and then disappear back like a guerrilla operation.
[01:32:06]  This is information warfare.
[01:32:07]  This is the truth.
[01:32:09]  And if I went away tomorrow and backed off, they would demonize me, lie about me, and use me as a tool of evil.
[01:32:14]  So I can't do that.
[01:32:16]  But the only way I'm able to get our articles and videos and the truth of what we've said out is you.
[01:32:21]  I'm banned on all these platforms, but you can take clips.
[01:32:25]  You can share them.
[01:32:26]  You can get them out and understand that it's not just about saving Infowars or Alex Jones.
[01:32:30]  It's about holding up the truth and defending it and celebrating it together.
[01:32:36]  So I need you to support the show.
[01:32:37]  I need you to pray for the show.
[01:32:39]  I need you to buy products that are already great for you and your family.
[01:32:41]  So I'm going to just say this.
[01:32:42]  We've got the big sale going right now.
[01:32:45]  It's the Infowars emergency supply chain breakdown sale.
[01:32:49]  And it's up to 50% off across the board.
[01:32:52]  It's the emergency, I'm gonna have to pay out these lawsuits.
[01:32:56]  Yep.
[01:32:56]  I'm fucked.
[01:32:57]  It's the I'm fucked sale.
[01:32:59]  I mean, it's so shocking to me that he wouldn't recognize how transparent his tone is when it's like, I need to really over-dramatize what is going to end up in a plug.
[01:33:12]  Yeah.
[01:33:12]  It takes minutes.
[01:33:15]  It takes minutes for the preamble of the plug.
[01:33:18]  Unfair.
[01:33:18]  Yes.
[01:33:19]  Unfair.
[01:33:19]  I mean, I was thinking just like, God, if I was there, I would have some sort of like playoff, you know, like at Oscars.
[01:33:27]  I would just immediately, he's going on too long.
[01:33:30]  It's just, you can feel it.
[01:33:32]  Oh, yeah.
[01:33:33]  You can taste it.
[01:33:35]  And then it gradually gets louder.
[01:33:37]  He's like, okay, we got to sell some shit.
[01:33:38]  Yeah.
[01:33:39]  Yeah, I just.
[01:33:41]  I think that there are times when you can get a smoothly done ad pitch.
[01:33:48]  And I could be sitting there and be like, this guy's got the goods.
[01:33:52]  Yes.
[01:33:53]  You know, but this is not that.
[01:33:54]  I mean, I remember back in the day, I was...
[01:33:58]  Sometimes duly impressed by his throws to ads.
[01:34:03]  Yeah, and I think some of it is just like being worn down over time.
[01:34:06]  Like, for us, we just see it over and over again.
[01:34:08]  But also, this is worse.
[01:34:09]  Yeah, no, that one's too obvious.
[01:34:10]  Yeah, so he rambles a bit more, and this is...
[01:34:14]  There's a lot going on, and you've got my commitment to burn the midnight oil.
[01:34:19]  Because I understand we're in the zeitgeist.
[01:34:21]  We're in the window of change.
[01:34:22]  The enemy knows it, and the devil sends the beast with wrath because he knows the time is short, and our time is short as well.
[01:34:28]  And I'm not risking my life and putting it all on the line to lose this thing.
[01:34:31]  And losing means losing humanity.
[01:34:33]  I'm not worried about me.
[01:34:35]  Seriously, folks, you've got to get in that zone, and then they can do nothing to you.
[01:34:39]  Like in V for Vendetta, when she's ready to die, and he goes, now you're free.
[01:34:44]  That's what this is about.
[01:34:46]  Separately, I would get prepared.
[01:34:48]  You know, satellite phones are great to have.
[01:34:50]  You get all the free calls to the cell phone.
[01:34:52]  It's only the calls out that cost you.
[01:34:55]  And the phone is a $600-plus value, one of the best phones they've got.
[01:34:59]  Yeah, so he plugs the satellite phone.
[01:35:00]  This is outrageous.
[01:35:02]  Look, this satellite phone's too good.
[01:35:04]  We're going to have to put a clock on this one.
[01:35:05]  Oh, yeah.
[01:35:07]  I just...
[01:35:08]  I mean, it's depressing.
[01:35:09]  Wow.
[01:35:10]  Yeah, that's real sad.
[01:35:11]  Look.

=== Hairy Armpits and Smoking Guns (04:50) ===

[01:35:13]  Okay.
[01:35:13]  We got the smoking gun of smoking gun of smoking guns.
[01:35:16]  But we needed to talk to Ted Nugent because he's a star.
[01:35:18]  We needed to talk to Dr. Bartlett because he's a doctor.
[01:35:20]  Totally.
[01:35:20]  We needed to talk to a comic because he's canceled.
[01:35:22]  Yeah.
[01:35:22]  And then we needed to do some ads because we, I'm losing this lawsuit.
[01:35:26]  We gotta keep the lights on.
[01:35:26]  Right, right.
[01:35:27]  Losing the lawsuit.
[01:35:28]  But now, finally, with a couple minutes left in the show.
[01:35:32]  Don't you do this.
[01:35:33]  Don't you do this.
[01:35:34]  Oh, God.
[01:35:36]  There's so many cases of Antifa just shooting people randomly.
[01:35:39]  Oh, you're an anti-vax parade?
[01:35:41]  We'll just shoot you because you're white.
[01:35:42]  And it's weirdo, white, devil-worshipper meth-heads nine times out of ten that are doing it.
[01:35:50]  Absolutely disgusting little rodents.
[01:35:52]  Usually they're professors or assistant professors.
[01:35:56]  Shooting people.
[01:35:57]  In fact, I meant to get to that footage last week of the weird woman with the shaved head and, like, the goat beard.
[01:36:02]  She's like, I'm ugly.
[01:36:03]  I love being gross.
[01:36:06]  Maybe find that for the next segment if you can't remember what I'm talking about.
[01:36:09]  It was going to air, like, last Friday.
[01:36:10]  And, and, or maybe last Thursday, but it's just that they're just, yeah, there it is.
[01:36:14]  Yeah, let's hear from her.
[01:36:16]  Go ahead and pipe the audio in.
[01:36:17]  Here she is.
[01:36:18]  I have this thing.
[01:36:19]  Call it a little quirk, if you will.
[01:36:20]  I have hair in my armpit.
[01:36:22]  I have it there for a few reasons.
[01:36:24]  One, lazy.
[01:36:26]  Two, fuck the patriarchy.
[01:36:27]  And three, your response to them tells me everything I need to know about you.
[01:36:35]  My response to this is...
[01:36:38]  I hope you find happiness, but the chances of that are very, very, very low, and I pity you.
[01:36:45]  I do.
[01:36:48]  I mean, there you go, ladies and gentlemen.
[01:36:50]  If you're not a radio listener, or you are a radio listener, and you're a TV viewer, you're very lucky that you're a radio listener and did not have to look at her, because she is as disgusting as she can be.
[01:37:01]  Wow!
[01:37:01]  She accentuates the weird little role.
[01:37:03]  Holy shit, man!
[01:37:05]  She has her hands shaved, except for like a...
[01:37:08]  Genghis Khan's ponytail on the back.
[01:37:10]  She's got giant, disgusting sideburns.
[01:37:13]  What the fuck are we doing, man?
[01:37:15]  I mean...
[01:37:16]  I thought that we had the bombshell.
[01:37:17]  I thought we had the smoking gun.
[01:37:19]  He decides to take up the end of the show complaining about a woman that I guess he's decided is unattractive.
[01:37:25]  I don't know.
[01:37:27]  This is so stupid.
[01:37:28]  The show is the worst.
[01:37:30]  Unreal.
[01:37:31]  They could not have been...
[01:37:33]  Like, they couldn't...
[01:37:35]  They couldn't resist.
[01:37:36]  Her last line is literally, how you react to it tells me everything I need to know about you.
[01:37:41]  And you guys told her everything you need to know about her.
[01:37:44]  I mean, it's amazing.
[01:37:45]  It's amazing how you couldn't...
[01:37:47]  It was like she teed it up through time itself for them to pay it off.
[01:37:51]  Yeah, yeah, basically.
[01:37:53]  Wild.
[01:37:53]  Yep.
[01:37:54]  I mean, it's just armpits.
[01:37:57]  Yeah.
[01:37:57]  It's just hair, man.
[01:37:58]  And I would imagine that someone who has armpit hair is very capable of finding whatever happiness someone who shaves their armpits would.
[01:38:07]  Not hard.
[01:38:08]  Nope.
[01:38:08]  It's very easy.
[01:38:09]  A lot of people, and I'm going to throw this out to you.
[01:38:12]  What?
[01:38:12]  And Alex...
[01:38:13]  And whoever that guy was.
[01:38:15]  Was that still the comic?
[01:38:16]  I have no idea.
[01:38:16]  I think that was in the clip that Alex was playing.
[01:38:18]  Oh, man.
[01:38:19]  I think he took it from somebody else's commentary about this woman.
[01:38:23]  Oh, fuck me.
[01:38:24]  Yeah.
[01:38:24]  Oh, my God.
[01:38:25]  So, yeah.
[01:38:26]  I mean, we just can't not shame her for not conforming to your appearance expectations.
[01:38:35]  Yep.
[01:38:35]  I don't even know how you can live like that.
[01:38:37]  It seems exhausting.
[01:38:40]  Somebody has hairy armpits somewhere!
[01:38:43]  You know what?
[01:38:44]  That's probably more emotionally exhausting than the time that it took me to assess the claims that he was making about that C-SPAN video.
[01:38:51]  You know what would have been easier for Alex, maybe?
[01:38:54]  What?
[01:38:54]  Actually, it wouldn't.
[01:38:55]  It would have been infinitely harder for him because he is a liar.
[01:38:59]  Cover the actual stuff you are supposed to cover.
[01:39:01]  Give it a shot.
[01:39:02]  Yeah.
[01:39:03]  I think that would have been good.
[01:39:05]  Hey, let's do two bets.
[01:39:06]  Yeah.
[01:39:06]  All right?
[01:39:07]  First bet, you take the vaccine, you die.
[01:39:09]  I take the vaccine, I live.
[01:39:11]  We're fine.
[01:39:11]  All right?
[01:39:12]  Second bet, try doing your job one day.
[01:39:16]  See how it goes.
[01:39:17]  I think it would be a disaster.
[01:39:20]  I just, I don't know.
[01:39:21]  I'd love to see him try to be serious and actually cover something.
[01:39:24]  Brutal.
[01:39:25]  Look, we didn't learn a lot.
[01:39:30]  No.
[01:39:31]  No, we didn't.
[01:39:33]  Mm-mm.
[01:39:34]  Proudly.
[01:39:35]  Yep.
[01:39:35]  We already knew that Ted Nugent sucks.
[01:39:37]  He sucks so bad.
[01:39:39]  Yeah.
[01:39:39]  So anyway, Jordan, that's our episode.
[01:39:41]  We will be back, though.
[01:39:42]  But until then, we have a website.
[01:39:44]  We do.
[01:39:44]  It's knowledgefight.com.
[01:39:45]  Yep.
[01:39:45]  We're also on Twitter.
[01:39:46]  We are on Twitter.
[01:39:47]  It's that knowledge underscore fight.
[01:39:47]  And I go to bed, Jordan.
[01:39:48]  That is correct.
[01:39:50]  We will be back.
[01:39:51]  But until then, I'm Neo.
[01:39:52]  I'm Leo.
[01:39:53]  I'm DZX Clark.
[01:39:54]  I'm Daryl Rundis.
[01:39:55]  And now here comes the sex robot.
[01:39:57]  Andy in Kansas.
[01:39:58]  You're on the air.
[01:39:58]  Thanks for holding.
[01:40:01]  Hello, Alex.
[01:40:02]  I'm a first-time caller.
[01:40:03]  I'm a huge fan.
