#871: November 14, 2023

Knowledge Fight #871 dissects Alex Jones’s chaotic November 14, 2023 episode—his absurd election hype (356-day countdown), mocking "Uranio Policy Wonk," and Marjorie Taylor Greene’s failed GOP impeachment push against Majorkis. Jones pivots to fringe theories: solar flares crippling the internet, race-specific bioweapons, and attacking pre-tribulation rapture doctrine, all dismissed as performative nonsense. His dramatic threats to quit over InfoWars’ finances collapse under listener Cobe’s polite plea, ending with a bizarre Greatest Schwabs parody and their signature sign-offs. The episode underscores Jones’s reliance on recycled fearmongering and self-mythologizing to sustain his brand. [Automatically generated summary]

Hello, Alex.
I'm a fish trend color here saying I love your room.
unidentified
Knowledge fight.
alex jones
Knowledgefight.com.
I love you.
dan friesen
Hey, everybody.
Welcome back to Knowledge Fight.
I'm Dan.
alex jones
I'm Jordan.
dan friesen
We're a couple dudes.
Like to sit around, worship at the altar of Celine, and talk a little bit about Alex Joe.
jordan holmes
Oh, indeed we are.
Dean.
dan friesen
Jordan.
jordan holmes
Dan.
dan friesen
Jordan.
jordan holmes
Quick question for you.
dan friesen
What's up?
What's your bright spot today, buddy?
My bright spot today, Jordan.
I was thinking about Advent calendars.
jordan holmes
You were thinking about Advent calendars, and that led to your bright spot.
dan friesen
About the history of Advent calendars in my life.
jordan holmes
Right.
I was going to say, not the actual.
Did you look into the actual history?
dan friesen
I didn't.
I like to research things, but not that much.
I'm not compulsive.
Well, I'll take that back.
jordan holmes
Let's just move on from there.
dan friesen
So I don't know what your relationship was growing up with Advent calendars.
jordan holmes
I had one.
dan friesen
Right.
Yeah.
So for me, there was the excitement of the Advent calendar sometimes being chocolates.
unidentified
Sure.
jordan holmes
Oh, totally.
dan friesen
Every day you open up a little door and there's a chocolate in there.
But I think at a certain point, my parents wanted to snuff out the joy in my life.
And Advent calendars became like the last battleground of joy.
jordan holmes
I will take these from thee.
dan friesen
No candy.
No, that's not fair.
There was still candy around.
But Advent calendars became like this thing that was on the wall, like a sheet that was on the wall, and there were pockets.
And in each pocket, there was a decoration for the tree.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
For the Christmas tree.
jordan holmes
I've seen those.
dan friesen
And so it was that instead of candies behind every door.
And I will say, as much fun as it is to decorate a Christmas tree, it is no candy.
No.
And so Advent calendars became something that I didn't have a lot of passion for.
jordan holmes
That's just something you can't do to a child.
dan friesen
Right.
jordan holmes
You can't do that for two reasons.
dan friesen
Bake and switch with the candy.
jordan holmes
Totally.
First thing you can do, you can never do the candy advent calendar and just always have the, and then you would be excited for that.
You'd be like, holy shit, this is the time of year we do the the right.
You know?
And then you can't have kids know that other kids get chocolate at the advent calendar.
dan friesen
You have to shelter them somehow.
jordan holmes
Yeah, but once you breach that line, you have ruined the kids' life if you take away candy advent calendars from them.
dan friesen
Right.
jordan holmes
That's just true.
dan friesen
So now as an adult, life ruined.
I'm aware that there are a number of sorts of advent calendars you can get.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Like I've seen people have booze ones.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
And that sounds kind of fun, but I don't really drink that much these days.
So like I don't know, you know, whatever.
Sure.
However.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
unidentified
What do you got?
dan friesen
I swear to God, this is not an Aldi-sponsored podcast.
You'd never know it from listening to us.
So the Aldi.
I was walking around shopping.
You know how I like to spend some time in the cheese aisle, apparently.
jordan holmes
I have heard.
dan friesen
Found a cheese advent calendar.
jordan holmes
Interesting.
dan friesen
So I've got that.
I'm going to enjoy that this holiday season this December.
I'm going to be having cheese every day.
Open up the little door.
Hello, cheese.
jordan holmes
Varieties of cheese?
dan friesen
You bet.
jordan holmes
Specific themed varieties of cheese or just general cheese varieties?
dan friesen
What kind of themes are you talking about?
jordan holmes
I mean, maybe there's like, oh, the cheeses of Belgium.
dan friesen
I don't think so.
No, but they are.
They are.
I don't know.
I looked at a couple of the names that are highlighted.
And they seem pretty good.
One is like a mustard something or other.
I'm like, hello.
I look forward to you.
unidentified
All right.
dan friesen
Whatever door you're going to be behind.
But yeah, so I got a cheese advent calendar.
My life is going great.
jordan holmes
Good.
Glad to you.
dan friesen
What's your bright spot?
jordan holmes
My bright spot, I have a double bright spot.
dan friesen
Oh, shit.
jordan holmes
Walked in with the single one.
First bright spot came in.
You've got a cold brew coffee.
dan friesen
I did.
jordan holmes
This shit is great.
dan friesen
I got a cold brew maker because I like coffee, sort of, but I like iced coffee.
And it's kind of a hassle to make hot coffee and then cool it.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that's absurd.
dan friesen
Multi-step process.
jordan holmes
It makes me angry.
dan friesen
If you try to use ice, it ends up watering down the coffee and it's just no good.
But I found a cheap cold brew brewer.
unidentified
Amazing.
dan friesen
And so I've been messing around with that.
I'm glad you enjoy it.
jordan holmes
It's fantastic.
Second Bright Spot tomorrow.
Well, today, whenever this is coming out, Super Mario RPG remake Switch.
dan friesen
Whoa.
jordan holmes
Extremely excited for this.
dan friesen
Yeah, I never played the original one.
jordan holmes
Ultimate, it is one of the classic video games of.
I mean, anybody who argues with you is like, oh, it's not that great.
It's just wrong.
It's just wrong.
It's one of the greats.
It's just one of the greats.
dan friesen
That was originally on the 64.
jordan holmes
No, NES.
dan friesen
NES?
jordan holmes
Any super.
Well, SENES.
SNESS.
dan friesen
Oh, okay.
jordan holmes
Yeah, not the original.
dan friesen
There's no way that was on Nintendo.
No, Oh, that's great.
jordan holmes
Original SNES.
dan friesen
I think I'll probably give it a try.
You should.
I was a huge Thousand Year Door guy.
unidentified
Oh, yeah.
dan friesen
Paper Mario.
Thousand Year Door.
Just spiritual sequel.
jordan holmes
It is.
I mean, I will tell you this.
It's so much of a fun, like the game knows what it's trying to do, and it's having a great time doing it.
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
It's just filled with such infectious joy.
There's so many mini-games where you're just like, this is great.
This is great.
dan friesen
Well, that's quite an ad for it.
jordan holmes
I'll die on the hill of Super Mario RPG.
Is it a great game?
dan friesen
Who's your squad?
jordan holmes
Who's my squad?
It starts with, usually I go Mario Geno Bowser.
That's how it goes.
unidentified
Gino.
jordan holmes
Yeah, Gino is a character created just for Super Mario RPG.
dan friesen
Is it Gino the Manager from that Holland Oats song?
jordan holmes
Ooh, if only.
If only.
dan friesen
San on the land.
unidentified
San on the line.
jordan holmes
It's a puppet that was magically brought to life by Star, I believe.
And Wishes.
Yep.
dan friesen
All right.
Live fast, die a tried.
jordan holmes
Die laughing.
dan friesen
Gene.
No, no, no, no.
jordan holmes
Something like that.
dan friesen
That's a good song.
There's a number of songs that I only know about because of that show, Yacht Rock.
And Gino the Manager is definitely one of them.
A very bizarre deep cut from Holland Oats.
jordan holmes
I can think of no reason to, off the top of your head, know about that song.
dan friesen
That in Portable Radio.
The song by Holland Oates talking about boom boxes and how exciting they are.
jordan holmes
The song.
Yacht Rock.
That song by Holland Oats is another title for Yacht Rock.
dan friesen
My baby loves my portable radio.
jordan holmes
Oh, boy.
dan friesen
Crack up the powder.
jordan holmes
Oh, man.
I can't believe that they haven't.
Never mind.
dan friesen
So, Jordan.
jordan holmes
Yes.
dan friesen
Today we have an episode to go over.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
We're going to be talking about November 14th, 2023.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
I was going to include 15th too, but I bailed after like two minutes.
unidentified
Smart.
dan friesen
Yeah.
But we don't have much to go over on the 14th for reasons that will become clear in a little bit.
unidentified
Okay.
dan friesen
But that's why I wanted to extend things and do the 15th.
But then all this will become crystal clear.
Why the episode's short, why I gave up on the 15th.
All these mysteries and more will be solved on today's Serialized episode.
jordan holmes
I want that.
That's how we got to start now.
dan friesen
All these mysteries and more.
jordan holmes
All these mysteries and more will be solved on this week's episode of Knowledge Fights.
dan friesen
Tune in.
Same Alex time, same Alex channel.
jordan holmes
Man, I can't believe how nostalgic I just got for that announcer voice.
Amazing.
dan friesen
So we'll get down to business on this, but first, Jordan, let's say hello to some new wonks.
jordan holmes
Ooh, that's a great idea.
dan friesen
So, first, leftist cult of Forest Rangers, PNW chapter secretary.
Thank you so much.
You're an IO Policy Wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much.
dan friesen
I've heard of these leftist Forest Rangers.
I've heard from a couple people, I think.
Or it's the same person who's written a couple times.
I'm not sure.
jordan holmes
I like the idea of that actually existing beneath our noses this entire time.
Like just Forest Rangers have their own secret society.
dan friesen
Indianizing the squirrels.
jordan holmes
Totally.
Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
They'll be fine after we're all gone.
dan friesen
Co-ops of moose.
jordan holmes
Oh, yes, please.
dan friesen
Next, 30 days, half September, April, June, and November.
Thank you so much, Uranio Policy Wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much.
dan friesen
Fake news.
Next, Kit from Porkopolis, USA.
Thank you so much, Uranio Policy Wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
Thank you very much.
dan friesen
Thank you.
Next, I talk with Dan and Jordan when I listen in my car like I'm the third host.
Wait, is that weird?
Oh, God, it's weird, isn't it?
Thank you so much, Uranio Policy Wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
Thank you very much.
dan friesen
It's not weird at all.
We hear you when you do that.
jordan holmes
That's weird.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Next, Moss Hughes.
Thank you so much, Uranio Policy Wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much.
dan friesen
And we got a technocrat in the mix, Jordan.
So thank you so much to Austin Theory is a loser little titty baby.
Thank you so much.
You are an Iowa Technocrat.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
unidentified
Four stars.
alex jones
Go honky and mud and telling you.
Brilliant.
Someone sodomite sent me a bucket of poop.
Daddy Sharp.
Bomb, Jar Jar Binks has a Caribbean black accent.
unidentified
He's a loser, little, little titty baby.
alex jones
I don't want to hate black people.
I renounce Jesus Christ.
dan friesen
Do you know what that means?
jordan holmes
What?
Austin Theory is a loser, little titty baby?
dan friesen
Do you know who that is?
jordan holmes
I do not know who Austin Theory is.
dan friesen
Austin Theory is a pro wrestler.
unidentified
Okay.
dan friesen
And he might be fairly described as a loser, little titty baby.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
It's kind of a shithe kind of guy.
jordan holmes
Is Sad Zach supposed to be a loser?
dan friesen
Yeah, more kind of just an asshole.
jordan holmes
Oh, okay.
dan friesen
He's still booked fairly well and not meant to be like a total joke, but he's a dick.
jordan holmes
Someone you love to hate.
Yes.
Yeah.
dan friesen
Well, maybe you're supposed to hate hating him also.
jordan holmes
Hating the love the hate guy.
dan friesen
Yeah, he's someone who has a lot of potential, but his character now is all just like a...
Actually, I don't know.
I haven't watched it.
jordan holmes
He's a wasted potential.
unidentified
No.
jordan holmes
God damn it.
dan friesen
You just get it, man.
He's a loser, little titty baby.
unidentified
I don't get it.
dan friesen
He's actually perfect.
All right, fair enough.
So we start off here today, and, you know, we got in better times.
Alex did not care about.
jordan holmes
So we've got a, on this day's episode, and we've got a preamble that starts, in better times.
dan friesen
Yeah, before the in the in the years when things were going better, Alex didn't care so much about electoral politics.
unidentified
True.
dan friesen
It was not an obsession of his, and here we are now.
alex jones
356 days, 12 hours, 59 minutes, 33 seconds until the most important election in world history.
I think that's very fair to say.
As important as the Continental Army defeating King George III in a revolutionary war that was kicked off with July 4th, 1776.
We are at the crossroads here right now.
Thank you so much for joining us on this live Tuesday transmission.
dan friesen
Yeah, so we got the most important election of all time.
And yeah, maybe, maybe fair.
But also, it sucks.
Just a 350-something day countdown.
jordan holmes
We have a whole year countdown.
dan friesen
It's too much.
jordan holmes
I'll tell you what I did.
I'll tell you what I did.
So there was this article I was reading.
And I don't know if you remember, but do you remember Predictit that Betting on elections thing.
You remember that?
dan friesen
Yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
So I was reading this article and they were like, oh, legal stuff.
Anyways, the site's up.
And I was like, I can't do elections.
I can't.
dan friesen
I'm the Bobby Barnes territory.
unidentified
Right.
jordan holmes
So I've got 200 bucks on Nikki Haley becoming the president.
dan friesen
I mean, I think in honor.
jordan holmes
I put my money where my mouth is, right?
dan friesen
Well, here's what I would have done.
What?
GOP primary.
I don't know about president, but you should have maybe made that long shot bet for the primary.
jordan holmes
You know, I think I'm telling you this.
dan friesen
I think it sucks so much for you to be right about the primary and then her lose the election.
Like, and then you don't cash out.
jordan holmes
Yeah, but you know, I think as things get closer, right?
So, so you, you know, you make such a long shot bet early on, but as things get closer, what if Trump gets disqualified, right?
dan friesen
Right.
unidentified
Okay.
jordan holmes
Then all of a sudden, my long shot bet of like one in a hundred odds becomes more like 50-50 before the election even happens.
I can be like, hey, I'll sell this and make a huge profit.
That's how it works.
That's gambling, baby.
dan friesen
Oh, I didn't know you could sell your bets.
jordan holmes
I didn't know that either, but apparently you can.
dan friesen
Well, then get out when you can.
jordan holmes
I will.
dan friesen
So Alex has a protracted, boring rant that he goes on about how he's always right and how he's been proven right.
He's vindicated.
unidentified
Okay.
dan friesen
And he has a mission for his listeners based on how right they've all been.
alex jones
It's all real.
This show is real.
We're telling the truth here.
And all of you that have backed the broadcast and all of you that have told the truth and been ridiculed and attacked, you're vindicated.
And your neighbors, your friends, your family, those that have ridiculed you should apologize to you.
And it's not about your ego.
It's about them respecting that you have the light in the dark of the night.
It's about respecting the fact that you cared about them enough to warn them and you believe in them enough to believe that they could wake up and help you save our country and the world.
You be very firm with your friends and your family and your neighbors now about how the tyranny is increasing and how their denial is helping this happen and how they better get up off their asses and join you speaking out against this.
dan friesen
I've been so right all the time.
And so you must demand apologies from your neighbors and friends.
jordan holmes
Be firm.
dan friesen
Be firm.
jordan holmes
Be firm with your neighbors and friends.
No more of this backing down nonsense.
dan friesen
I do think that from my experiences in the past with conspiracy theory-minded people, they're pretty soft.
They're not very insistent about their ideas and their beliefs depicting reality.
And they really are cool with disagreement.
jordan holmes
You know what?
Conciliatory.
That's the way I would describe it.
Me.
dan friesen
Pushovers.
jordan holmes
Willing to give up on any single issue, regardless of its import.
dan friesen
Yep.
So I think it's just funny the idea of Alex's listeners being like, all right, I'm going to go over to the neighbor's house.
Knock, knock, knock.
I demand an apology.
jordan holmes
Yeah, you know, for all the horrible things that his stochastic terrorism has resulted in, it's important to remember that it's also that small damage, that day-to-day annoying the people around you that Alex's fans do that takes its toll.
That adds up, too.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
He's a psychic monster.
dan friesen
But it is also, you know, it does have the potential to create some funny, slightly curb your enthusiasm-ish moments where you're going next door to get an apology.
jordan holmes
That is true.
dan friesen
Door slams in your face.
unidentified
Excuse me.
dan friesen
So Marjorie Taylor Greene is on.
jordan holmes
Sure.
Wait, on the show?
unidentified
Okay.
dan friesen
Yeah, she comes on for a little bit.
But her line is too bad for us to really listen to much of it.
But basically, she's on because she wanted to impeach Secretary Majorkis, and it didn't work.
And so she's coming to complain about that.
marjorie taylor greene
I can't even understand it, Alex.
It's outrageous.
They sent the articles of impeachment back on the shelf in the Judiciary Committee where all articles of impeachment resolutions go to die.
And I think these people deserve being named.
They deserve being shamed.
And all of their constituents and voters now know where their representative stands on impeaching Secretary Mayorkis and securing our southern border.
And they know that these eight Republicans could care less how many people die every single day from Biden's open border policies.
dan friesen
Terrible phone line.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that's not good.
dan friesen
So what's going on here is that the GOP is trying to drum up an investigation on Homeland Security Secretary Majorkis, but that investigation hasn't reached its conclusion yet.
Marjorie Taylor Greene decided that she didn't want to wait and introduced a snap impeachment in hopes of just removing Majorkis, probably because she's fully aware that the investigation won't turn up anything damning and that there's more political upside in doing this now than waiting for it to be a dead ball.
Her plot didn't work, mostly because some GOP House members didn't go along with her, and now she's on the warpath trying to target these eight Congress members.
This is the kind of upside you get when you rush in like Marjorie Taylor Greene is doing.
There's basically no shot of this impeachment passing after the investigation is complete and a pretty small chance it would pass now.
But if you wait, you lose the opportunity to grandstand.
By doing this now, MTG gets to position herself as the only person willing to step up and do something while everyone else just sits on their hands.
And she could have achieved her goal if it weren't for these eight GOP representatives who probably don't even like Trump enough.
It's all symbolic posturing anyway, because even if her impeachment passed the House, it's dead in the water in the Senate.
So this is just never going to happen.
She's just a child lashing out for attention, but it makes sense why she's doing it.
If you're MTG, this is probably a good game to be playing because she's mostly just courting attention from extremist media outlets like Infowars.
But if her goal is to actually make the House a more extremist-friendly place, attacking these eight isn't the worst plan.
Most of them are in safe GOP districts, so they could potentially be vulnerable to a primary challenge from a fringe-right candidate that wouldn't jeopardize a seat that the GOP has in the House.
However, a couple of them are in pretty precarious districts.
Mike Turner is in Ohio's 10th district, which is only Republican plus five.
And John Duart is in California's 13th district, which has an even partisan index.
So you don't want to fuck with that guy's place.
You're going to lose a seat.
It's interesting because there's good and simultaneously bad political moves that are being made here.
If Green is actually interested in accruing power, by attacking these guys, she stands to possibly work toward replacing them with people who would align more closely with her, but she also risks losing seats and thus this thin margin that the GOP has in the House.
Ultimately, I don't really think that she's looking at things this deeply.
She just didn't get her way and she feels entitled to get her way all the time.
So she's lashing out at the eight people who said no.
I think that's probably more what's going on.
But in the end, I decided to overthink this a little bit because I was a little bored by what was going on in this episode.
And Marjorie Taylor Greene's phone line is so bad.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
I can't play more clips.
jordan holmes
That's just not enough.
unidentified
That's it.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
What are you going for?
A Homeland Security Secretary?
dan friesen
Yeah.
And from what I understand, I think I didn't write this down, but I believe it was like 18, late 1800s was the last time a cabinet member was impeached.
I mean, you're not going to pull this off.
jordan holmes
Yeah, no, you're not going to, and you're not going to move the needle with impeaching a cabinet member.
I couldn't name most of them in my entire lifetime.
dan friesen
But Mayorkis.
What a great name.
And also.
jordan holmes
Homeland Security didn't even exist for most of my life.
dan friesen
True.
jordan holmes
So, I mean, this is not.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
Impeach the guy.
Get rid of his entire job.
Get rid of Homeland Security.
I'm all for it.
dan friesen
And then we bring in, who'd we bring in?
Somebody that they'd hate even more.
jordan holmes
Let's see.
dan friesen
Austin Theory.
Homeland Security Secretary Austin Theory.
That'd be good.
So earlier in the episode, Alex did a little bit of an explainer on his situation vis-à-vis bankruptcy.
Sure.
Not good.
Yeah.
Not good.
But basically, the way that he's pitching things now is that InfoWars would be totally fine, and the bankruptcy would be totally fine.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
But the evil conspirators that are out to get him in the CIA and all these shadowy globalist forces, they convinced the bankruptcy court to make Alex personally pay half of the legal fees.
And because of that, he's fucked.
He can't pay any of this shit.
He doesn't have anybody.
And so that is like the real problem.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
Is that he instead of just having InfoWars pay all the legal fees, he has to pay half of it himself.
Sure.
And I guess because of the way that there's oversight with the bankruptcy stuff, he can't just take money out of the company for himself.
Yeah, And so this is leading to a problem for him.
jordan holmes
Right, right, right.
And because there's oversight, he can't just stiff the lawyers the way that, like, you know, probably not.
Oh, yeah, come sue me.
You know, like, he could say that, but now that people are watching, they're like, you have to follow the rules.
dan friesen
I think there are all sorts of various difficulties.
So anyway, Alex is going to take some calls, but he does not want to talk about this.
alex jones
Here's what I'm going to do.
I'm going to give the number out and I'm going to take your calls.
I want callers to listen to me very carefully.
I want to talk about issues.
I want to talk about topics.
I know I've been the last four or five days on air since last Friday talking about the situation with InfoWars and keeping us on air and how much your support's needed.
But when I do that, it's because I happen to tell you about it.
I don't want to make the whole show about it because we're on hundreds of radio stations and a lot of TV and cable stations.
People are tuning in all the time and they tune in and just hear me whining or you calling in saying, oh, you're so sorry.
It's just, it's time we can spend on information.
I have to tell the most critical audience, the hardcore audience that listens for long periods of time, an update, but then we need to move on from that.
So the only thing I'm screening is no talk about me or InfoWars or, oh, Alex, please stay on air, any of that, because I'm already so mad and upset about all this that I'm going to blow up and I'm going to leave.
I got a rule now.
When I'm going to blow up, I don't do it.
I just leave.
And I can control myself at 50 years old better than I used to.
But the whole story is so insane, so out of control, so sick that you can talk about any subject you want.
You're not censored, but I don't want to get into that.
dan friesen
I'm not talking about it.
I'm going to leave.
Man, boy, if there isn't foreshadowing.
jordan holmes
I just can't.
You know, sometimes you invite your downfall.
dan friesen
Yep.
jordan holmes
There's just no other way to describe what is happening right here.
That could not be more a fucking, I'm only two days away from retirement.
My daughter's getting married the day after I retire.
I've got another grandkid along the way.
Like any number of different things you have to live for.
Yeah.
dan friesen
What you have here is Alex being like, all right, I'm going to take calls.
And if callers do the thing that they're most likely to do, I'm fucking out of here.
It's good.
It's good.
jordan holmes
It's a good setup.
dan friesen
So anyway, we'll get to see if this works out for him.
jordan holmes
You know, I do appreciate a good sword at Damocles.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
You don't have him often.
dan friesen
It's hanging.
I will say that it takes him quite a while to get to calls.
So that at least buffers things a little bit.
Because he has some news.
alex jones
I meant to get to this a few days ago.
But because of time I didn't, I really am glad I didn't because I had more time to research it.
We got a couple newscasts I want to play towards the end of the show after we take a bunch of calls.
Now, NASA and the government saying they believe the internet has a good chance of being shut down for months because of a solar flare.
unidentified
And I began to think what?
alex jones
Well, I'll get to it later, but you can imagine where I'm going with this.
jordan holmes
That's not good enough.
alex jones
It's your job.
dan friesen
I can't remember.
alex jones
Obviously.
Producers and radio aren't like movies where they own the show.
Producers book people, get the guests on, do that.
So we do have great producers do that, but I'm the guy that calls the shots.
They're not like in my ear saying, hey, do this, do that.
Sometimes they say, hey, you just said the wrong name or the wrong website.
So they do pop my ear a couple times a day when I make mistakes.
But I am telling them, write it on the board, or maybe I should get a board here and write it because I forget.
Make me cover solar superstorm in the last segment of the broadcast today because it's important.
dan friesen
I will say that the last segment of the broadcast comes out of nowhere.
So there is no time to.
unidentified
There's no time.
No.
jordan holmes
Oh, it's a very sudden last segment.
dan friesen
It's a surprise.
It hits you just like a solar floor.
alex jones
Oh, strange.
jordan holmes
Strange.
dan friesen
See, NASA and the government didn't say that they believe a solar flare will shut down the internet.
This is just online bullshit that Alex is pretending is news.
So there was a 2021 study that was done by NASA that looked at the possibility of solar storms affecting internet cables, mostly like the ones that are underwater, across the ocean and shit.
This was a hypothetical study looking at ways to be prepared for any potential situation, which, of course, was picked up on by conspiracy theorists in Fox News and turned into a dire warning that solar flares are going to cause an internet outage.
This is particularly useful for someone like Alex because the internet going down is a big part of his globalist takeover conspiracy timeline.
And he's pitched so many different versions of how this is going to happen, even over just the last two years.
And Tifo was going to bring the internet down, or the globalists were going to turn off the internet, but blame a cyber attack from Russia.
There were a bunch of different fun storylines that he's tried.
And this is the new one.
And it's just as stupid as the rest.
So this is how this works.
Alex needs to make the audience scared because fear is the fuel that his engines run on.
The world relies on the internet to keep us all connected.
And the staggering effects of a month-long internet outage would be almost impossible to imagine.
Markets would go chaotic, social media would disappear in an instant, and the ability of people like Alex to pretend to do independent journalism would be crushed.
It's not hard to imagine riots breaking out or at least a great deal of civic unrest coming along with it.
Thus, the internet outage fear is really good to use for the audience.
It's evocative and it's easy to understand.
Plus, there's a built-in motive for the globalists to want to do an internet outage.
When they're making their move and seizing ultimate control, they don't want pesky people like Alex to be able to get his message out to warn people.
They need to take control under the cover of darkness.
But they can't just go flip some switch and turn it off.
People would be furious.
So they need to take a false flag approach here.
And that's why you keep seeing Alex trying to find ways to pitch this false flag using whatever flimsy optics he can find by skimming headlines and pretending he's done research on it.
This is just the new one.
The new way to new shiny coat of paint on the internet is going to be taken down in a false flag kind of theory.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
Man, that's nuts.
When you really stop to think about it, it has gone from in a very short period of time, a technological advancement has gone from being something cool to being, if it goes down for an hour, an entire species loses its fucking mind.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that probably might be not good.
When we stop and think about, oh, if the internet goes down for a month, everyone might lose their fucking minds and the entire society might collapse.
We got to really examine whether or not maybe we're a little over-reliant.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
You know?
dan friesen
And addicted, you know?
jordan holmes
Yeah, maybe a little bit too much.
dan friesen
Yeah, we should diversify.
jordan holmes
Maybe go to a park.
dan friesen
How's that going to help with the markets?
jordan holmes
The parkets.
dan friesen
Okay.
jordan holmes
Put them all in parks.
dan friesen
You thought that was so fucking clever.
jordan holmes
No, it did not.
It happened.
I regret it coming out immediately.
dan friesen
So I don't know about you.
Are you a morning person?
jordan holmes
I am a morning person now.
dan friesen
Do you like to wake up and put your feet in the dew on the grass and maybe find some clarity in the sunrise?
unidentified
No.
dan friesen
Okay.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
Well, you're unlike Alex then.
unidentified
Okay.
dan friesen
Because Alex in the morning.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
He'll go out on a massive amount of land and walk, take a big hike.
jordan holmes
Oh, sure.
dan friesen
Which is all bullshit.
jordan holmes
Bob Ross style.
dan friesen
Yeah, and he just finds the great clarity of the Most High.
jordan holmes
All right.
alex jones
People need to have an intense understanding of the severity of the situation.
When I really sit back, especially when I'm fresh in the morning, had a cup of coffee, get up about 5 a.m.
Family's asleep.
Go out the back door.
jordan holmes
Don't lie.
unidentified
You pay you twice.
alex jones
Plunge down into a greenbelt behind my house.
Nobody's out there.
Do a five-mile hike.
Blood's pumping through my brain.
I'm fresh, and I just am just thinking about everything going on.
And there's a real feeling of sadness that we've gone this far and it's gotten this bad.
Here's the good news: you'll either wake up and fight this, or you'll be totally delusional and keep serving it.
But either way, things are going to get so insane that most people are going to wake up finally.
jordan holmes
Is that good?
alex jones
But then the globalists will have us off the land with kill switches and all the vehicles and all the appliances.
The infrastructure totally destroyed.
And then the carrying capacity of the planet will be so devastated in crime and lawlessness will be so pervasive that a lot of countries are going to have to organize a defensive posture and it'll be a blessing, even though it won't be good when the globalists release the race-specific bioweapons that wipe out the third world.
jordan holmes
I'm sorry.
unidentified
Is this the good news?
alex jones
They plan to put the West in a position.
You're getting the high-level info here.
And I don't say that again to impress you or Brad.
dan friesen
I'm not impressed.
jordan holmes
That's something you say when you're like, I am out on a limb.
dan friesen
This is the real shit.
jordan holmes
I am flying solo right now.
dan friesen
My brain is out on the greenbelt, baby.
jordan holmes
I forgot my cord for this bungee jump.
dan friesen
So, yeah, the good news is that apparently the globalists are going to genocide most of the third world, if not all, of the third world, of which I would probably classify most of us now.
This is dark and silly.
jordan holmes
For good news, it's awful dark.
dan friesen
Yeah.
So I guess if you wanted to take away some of the elements of the genocide stuff there, the good news is that people are going to wake up because things are going to get so bad.
jordan holmes
Well, I mean, in a way, he's kind of saying that what the good news is is that the ratio of people to awake and not awake will have to go up.
Right.
But I mean, that's also just inevitable of murdering all of the not awake people, right?
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
And why would the globalists kill the not-awake people instead of the awake people?
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
That doesn't make sense.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
It doesn't make sense.
jordan holmes
This is a bad move.
dan friesen
Yeah, none of the motivations really line up here.
jordan holmes
I've got good news.
dan friesen
What's that?
jordan holmes
You don't have to worry about it.
dan friesen
It's all bullshit?
jordan holmes
No, no, no, no.
Just they're going to do it to people and you won't have to worry about it.
And maybe you wouldn't even notice it.
Happening because it's a race-specific bioweapon, right?
dan friesen
But that, I mean, here's why it's good.
I mean, the real good news is all this is in Alex's head.
jordan holmes
That is the best news.
Yeah.
Also, have you heard about this fella?
dan friesen
Jesus Christ.
We're going to hear a lot about him here.
jordan holmes
I believe that.
dan friesen
So, Alex gives himself chills.
So many chills.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
Because he's just thinking about how right he's been.
jordan holmes
That's not a good reason to feel good.
I don't know why you would feel anything if you're just obsessing with how right you are.
dan friesen
What's right?
jordan holmes
What a creepy thing to do.
dan friesen
I think it's a narcissist thing.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it must be.
alex jones
The listeners of the show, the viewers of the show, and other shows like it, some great people out there, a lot of them.
You're included.
jordan holmes
Ooh.
alex jones
All the false political systems, out of all the diversions, and all the thousands of distractions and all the weird sideshows and boutique movements.
The pro-Western, pro-God, anti-New World Order movement really are the people that have been dialed in and it emanates out of America.
Best and worst.
It's a paradox.
jordan holmes
Not how that works.
alex jones
We really have been right.
We really are the mechanics that have proven we know how to fix the car.
Or you use a nuclear reactor that's melting down.
And we're proven engineers that said it was coming, said what the problem was, and we've proven we know how to deactivate and shut down reactors without meltdowns.
And we're like, hey, you need to let us in here to fix this right now.
I'm getting chills.
We can still turn this around.
It's still going to be really rough.
But man, every month that passes that we don't fully turn this around, Lordy.
I mean, I'm getting full-body chills right now.
jordan holmes
Why month?
alex jones
That's the Holy Spirit when you're right over the target says, that's what you're supposed to say, son.
So I am grieving.
I am frustrated.
I am angry, but I also am very pleased because God's real.
God's been proven to be real.
And the devil's real.
So we know who wins in the end.
dan friesen
Okay.
So yeah, they're the mechanics.
They know what to do.
But what does that mean?
Like, what like kick the non-white people out of the country?
Like, what is the engineering solution that isn't being taken up?
jordan holmes
I don't see any description of themselves as mechanics going to a reactor and saying, let us fix it, that doesn't also include, and the way we fix it is by blowing it up.
alex jones
Right.
jordan holmes
You know, like, that's, that's their.
dan friesen
Your problem with your car is that it has an engine.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
So fuck this engine.
alex jones
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Your problem with your car is you have enough legs to drive it.
You know what you should be doing?
dan friesen
God said he should Fred Flintstone this thing and run under the car to make it move.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Don't you get it?
The problem is modernity.
jordan holmes
I, the idea of them.
dan friesen
We will fix the government by destroying it.
jordan holmes
Of all the things that they would think of themselves as, I feel like people who repair things is just off-brand.
Even for them.
Like, they can't look at themselves as people who fix things, right?
dan friesen
Well, I think that they would think that destroying is fixing.
jordan holmes
Well, sure.
And that's fine.
But I mean, you also have to then be like, and here's how we destroy it.
Or here's how we fix it is by blowing it up.
dan friesen
But you don't want people to know that because that's not a popular solution.
People would not want you to do that kind of mechanic work.
jordan holmes
Well, that's why people who blow them are called mechanics.
dan friesen
Other people from the outside might look at this as saboteur.
jordan holmes
Yeah, they're called explosive experts.
dan friesen
Right.
jordan holmes
Yeah, demolitions folks.
dan friesen
Like Jesse Ventura under the water.
Absolutely.
So Alex, he wants the audience to get right with God.
And he implores them to do so.
alex jones
We're going into full bondage if we don't turn around right now and repent.
jordan holmes
So just a little bondage?
alex jones
That's really the main message at the end of the day is get your soul right with God because this is biblical.
It's going down.
And I'm not attacking mainline Protestant Christians, he says attackingly.
Or evangelicals and I'm going to call.
Mike's first.
That's how I was raised.
dan friesen
To go to Mike first.
alex jones
But politely.
Nobody can read the Bible.
And all Paul talks about is how Christians are going to be persecuted.
And Revelation says the beast wages war against the saints and overcomes them.
And there's a tribulation of the Christians.
Then the archangel comes when God returns and bounds Satan.
And then the dead in Christ are risen.
There is no pre-tribulation.
dan friesen
Oh, boy.
alex jones
It isn't there.
And I get Christians.
That doctrine's only 160 years old.
unidentified
Sure.
alex jones
This is older than that now.
1830s got popped in the 1850s and 60s.
It's about 170, 180 years old.
jordan holmes
Thanks for clarifying.
alex jones
It's not there.
The Orthodox Church doesn't teach it.
The Catholic Church doesn't teach it because it wasn't there.
And so what happens when the Antichrist shows up and the world government's set up and the cashless society's there and the mark of the beast?
You're going to have all the churches saying that's Jesus.
He's returned, folks.
That's not Jesus.
That's the devil.
dan friesen
Oh, shit.
unidentified
Oh, fuck.
alex jones
We chunked it.
So all I can say to anybody, and I'm done preaching, is you better get right with God.
dan friesen
Better.
And don't go for this pre-trib shit.
jordan holmes
Man, yeah, you just can't really wrap your head around just how much of an effect one dude hallucinating on a Greek island had on this entire fucking planet.
dan friesen
There are a number of things that are involved in scripture that are like, well, there is an inflection point where this happened.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
You know, where this was written down.
And I know it's a process over years.
And there's a tradition and manuscripts get passed down.
jordan holmes
But John of Patmos.
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
How about that guy?
dan friesen
How about him?
And a lot of people just can't handle the tension between the pre and post, man.
jordan holmes
I get it.
dan friesen
I get it.
I just don't believe Alex's post-trib obsession doesn't have to do with him wanting to go commando.
jordan holmes
It's psychological, right?
dan friesen
Yeah, he wants to kill.
jordan holmes
It is a description of yourself as a person, whether you're a pre- or post-trib rapture, because both of those are absolutely ridiculous equally.
dan friesen
And he just wants to have that period where like justified and righteous violence against the devil.
jordan holmes
Literally, God said it's cool for me to start stabbing people.
Yeah.
I'm cool with it.
dan friesen
Yeah.
What are you going to do?
jordan holmes
Because if there is a pre-trib, he doesn't get to unless it's proven that he is not a Christian now.
dan friesen
In order to be a part of the fun.
Exactly.
The purge, as it were, it would have to mean that he wasn't one of God's chosen.
jordan holmes
Which means everything he believes now is wrong.
dan friesen
Right.
jordan holmes
And so here we are.
He's trapped in a logical dungeon.
dan friesen
He is.
jordan holmes
Full bondage, if you will.
dan friesen
And he's also trapped in a situation where he's got to go to Mike because that's how he was raised.
jordan holmes
That's how he was raised.
dan friesen
You've got to go to Mike first.
And so he does.
And Mike brings up Alex's plight.
alex jones
Oh, yeah.
jordan holmes
First?
I was really expecting it to be the first person, but then I was like, it's too obvious.
It's got to be number three, right?
Well, rule of three.
Nope, right out the gate.
Right at the gate.
alex jones
I asked the callers not to bring this up because that's not what this show is.
dan friesen
It is.
alex jones
The show is about topics and information.
No people leave whatever they want.
Talk about whatever they want.
We're here on hundreds of radio stations talking about news.
People can't tune in all day long and hear about our personal issues.
If people want to support us, InfowarStore.com.
If you don't, we'll shut down very soon.
It's very simple.
Now, I've asked people politely, one more, and you're in charge.
I'm leaving for a week.
One more call does it.
jordan holmes
Don't do this.
alex jones
Because it's a pointless thing to describe this.
jordan holmes
Don't do it.
alex jones
It's a pointless thing to go into it.
I almost didn't come in today, and I'm not quitting.
I just need to leave.
dan friesen
Just need to go?
jordan holmes
I just need to leave.
dan friesen
I just need to leave.
Mike?
Mike?
You could have not done this.
jordan holmes
What you did?
I'm not quitting.
I just need to leave and not come back to this thing.
dan friesen
Because fuck this.
jordan holmes
Imagine a challenge, and I am there performing side challenge.
I don't want to quit doing the challenge.
I just want to leave and never return to the challenge.
dan friesen
You basically have succeeded then.
Yeah.
But there is one point that Alex is making.
You can kind of tell it's subtly in there, and that is, and I think I empathize a little bit.
And that is, like, people can't tune into the show and constantly just hear us complaining and stuff.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
No, that's no good for as a show.
Yeah.
There's a part of Alex that I think he recognizes that, like, why would anyone tune in to listen to this shit when he's just having these spiraling breakdowns about how victimized he is by the world?
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Like, it's not interesting to anybody who's not already fully captive in your cult.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it is very strange to him for him to be aware of how awful the thing he's doing is as a show.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
And yet somehow still do it and not be aware while he's doing it.
dan friesen
He's trying not to, but these callers won't stop.
jordan holmes
Right.
But that's because you've spent so much time talking about it in the past that they're like, that's all we talk about now, right?
dan friesen
And because some of it is just politeness.
jordan holmes
It's just how are you?
dan friesen
Hey, Alex, we're rooting for you.
jordan holmes
Absolutely.
dan friesen
That kind of thing is.
alex jones
Don't bring it up.
jordan holmes
You fucking prick.
dan friesen
I'll leave it for a week because of you.
jordan holmes
Hope you're doing well.
alex jones
You brought it up.
dan friesen
So anyway, Alex decides, and it gets worse.
unidentified
Okay.
alex jones
In fact, I may just leave right now.
jordan holmes
Do it.
alex jones
Because I've got to decide when it is shut down.
They just want to shut it down and then make it look like, you know, that they didn't shut it down because they know it made Tucker Carlson bigger when they shut him down.
Okay.
In all intents and purposes, InfoWars is shut down.
Okay?
All right.
They know the finances.
They set it up that way.
That's the way it is.
Okay.
Now, the show is not about me.
I spent five minutes last hour telling people the situation.
I cannot repeat it over and over again.
I could not take calls if you'd like.
If that's what you'd like.
jordan holmes
Is that what you want me to do?
alex jones
One more time.
jordan holmes
Is that what you want me to do?
unidentified
I won't take it.
@snicklink
One more fucking time.
alex jones
Join discussion.
jordan holmes
Oh, for please draw it out just a little bit more.
alex jones
If people, I understand you're not lawyers.
You don't know the bankruptcy code.
I understand all that.
That's great.
Okay.
No more.
In fact, maybe I should shut it down right now because that'll make everybody happier.
jordan holmes
Yes, it really will.
It will.
That's a literal truth.
alex jones
All the experts know how to run things better.
can do it.
I'm going to try a little more here.
unidentified
Okay.
alex jones
Let's go ahead and talk to Cobe in Florida.
Go ahead.
Thanks for calling.
jordan holmes
Three.
unidentified
Hello.
alex jones
Yes, go ahead.
Hi, how are you, Alex?
I'm wonderful.
jordan holmes
All right, man.
unidentified
Well, God bless you, and please, please, please do not shut down, okay?
jordan holmes
We cannot afford you.
alex jones
No, we're being shut down.
Right, right.
I'm supposed to pay the bills.
I don't have the money.
So they can then say it's my fault when it shuts down because they think the public's that stupid.
So it's already happening.
And I said, all right, I got to go to rebroadcast.
That's it.
Get rebroadcast ready.
I'm out of here.
I warned everybody.
unidentified
Slow.
jordan holmes
That is classic. That is...
That is Tex Avery shit.
That is classic cartoons.
It doesn't get more classic cartoons because it's even got the timing and the cadence of somebody who's like, I'm not bringing it up.
I am only tertiarily recognizing what it was you were speaking about.
dan friesen
And again, it's mostly just polite.
It's mostly just being polite.
It's more or less, we're rooting for you.
We're pulling for you.
Presumably he had something else to bring up that would have come after this, but no, fuck this.
I'm out.
I'm out.
Alex is just looking for reasons to get mad.
Oh, God, it's so good.
jordan holmes
That is beautiful.
dan friesen
And so he does leave.
jordan holmes
That is beautiful.
It really is beautiful.
dan friesen
It's like an hour into the show or something like that.
He just leaves.
He plays like a long video about how he doesn't like RFK Jr. running a third-party thing.
jordan holmes
A nuclear explosion.
A mushroom cloud should have popped out of his head like Yosemite Sam.
It should have been amazing.
dan friesen
Yep.
jordan holmes
God, that's so stupid.
That's so stupid.
dan friesen
All right.
jordan holmes
That's it.
dan friesen
I said one more.
unidentified
I said one more.
jordan holmes
Please don't shut down.
That's what you fuck you.
I'll see you in hell.
I'm shutting down just despite your ass.
unidentified
Don't you get it?
jordan holmes
Fuck you.
dan friesen
Don't you get it?
We are being shut down.
It's not my choice.
You're acting like I have a choice in this.
jordan holmes
No, no, no.
You being nice has only made me even angrier.
dan friesen
Yeah, I mean, it's such a good little run, a little fun run there.
That was nice.
Of one call, guy brings a thing up.
The exact thing Alex said not to bring up.
He gets mad.
He's like, all right.
One more try.
One more try.
Guy's polite to him.
Blows up and leaves.
Amazing.
jordan holmes
Yeah, you know, sometimes you just, you don't need to write.
You know, sometimes you just don't need to write.
You just need to let things happen the way that they need to.
dan friesen
Yeah, when you're crazy enough and you have no boss and poor impulse control, sometimes comedy just happens.
jordan holmes
It is so funny.
You're like, oh, you know, so many sitcom characters wouldn't exist in real life because, you know, they don't have any boss or any impulse control.
Oh, yeah, that makes a lot of sense now.
unidentified
Why?
jordan holmes
It's funny.
You don't need to write it because, yeah.
dan friesen
So this is why the 14th, there's not a whole lot going on because Alex leaves a third of the way into the show.
And so I decided I was going to try and cover the 15th, too.
jordan holmes
Why not?
dan friesen
Then I turned on the 15th.
unidentified
Here we go.
dan friesen
And Alex is back.
He doesn't leave for a week.
unidentified
Okay.
dan friesen
He doesn't leave for a week, but he's boring as hell.
But there's this.
This commercial is playing at the beginning of the show.
And I was just like, I can't do this anymore.
I got to go.
unidentified
Vaccine spec on thy.
You know nothing and be happy.
But this one is going to make your modified mRNA tingle.
Time Lies presents Greatest Schwabs, Volume 15.
A new world order in music.
@snicklink
One, two, three, four, five, all the unvaccinated hospital lies.
A little bit of Pfizer in my car A little bit of BioNTech does no harm A little Johnson Johnson does the trick A little AstraZeneca so you don't get sick It's you, Stop.
Tommy.
Talk about facts, baby.
Let's talk about talk.
Let's talk about all of the answers and facts, maybe.
unidentified
You're joking.
@snicklink
Let's talk about facts.
dan friesen
Let's talk about facts.
@snicklink
Come and take the seven shots.
So seven.
unidentified
You selected like you get my, my, my, my, oh.
@snicklink
Man, my, my, my, you won't have to be pitch the CBVC.
You have all you need to center Coven C. Just take your extra belts and your cash It's the crazy thing I've ever heard my entire fucking life.
jordan holmes
This is crazy.
It's not the parent I have ever heard in my entire fucking life.
unidentified
The idea that someone sent out to do that is hilarious.
jordan holmes
Oh, they hate Klaus Schwab so much.
dan friesen
You know what?
There's a couple of context clues that you can take.
jordan holmes
Is that a whole album?
dan friesen
It might as well be.
I mean, they definitely did too many songs.
jordan holmes
Oh, oh, oh, yeah.
dan friesen
Because it is hilarious.
Like, as you're recognizing the bit, it's hilarious that someone did it.
Right.
But then it does drag on a little bit.
jordan holmes
Oh, it goes on too long.
dan friesen
Yeah.
And then there's more, too.
It keeps going.
It's even longer than that that I just played.
But I do think that some song choices indicate age.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And I think the person who made this might be an older person.
I think.
jordan holmes
You think?
dan friesen
I think maybe let's talk about sex.
jordan holmes
Not the voice, not the elderly male voice.
dan friesen
No, I mean, that's just a good Klash Schwab impression.
That's great.
That's good stuff.
jordan holmes
Oh, my God.
dan friesen
It's unbelievable.
I've not heard anything on InfoWars that made me laugh.
Now, I'm not laughing at it the way they want me to.
unidentified
Oh, no.
dan friesen
But it's unlike anything I've ever heard.
jordan holmes
I mean, it is like if you could go back in time to when I had to move back with my parents for like six months after I dropped out of my third college or whatever.
And it's 3 a.m. in the morning.
I'm in my parents' basement.
I'm drunk.
And there's nothing on the TV but those just repeats of the like compilation every good 60s cut kind of commercials.
dan friesen
I love those commercials.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
I would watch that just like fuck it.
I've got nothing else to do.
I'm living with my folks again.
I'd rather die.
And if that came on, my brain would explode.
Like it would, I would never be the same.
I think that's that's like what started the 70s.
You know, like fucking Ginsburg heard some shit like that and went so insane, created an entire beat movement just to avoid that shit.
That is incredible.
Powerful.
That is incredible.
dan friesen
It's poorly written.
Like, I think the song parodies are forced.
jordan holmes
Yep.
dan friesen
Oh, oh, very.
And I think.
unidentified
My, my, my, my, okarditis.
dan friesen
I think that that's a lot of what is so funny about it.
First of all, just the idea that someone made Schwab song parodies is pretty funny.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that's great.
dan friesen
And then the clunky fucking writing.
Now, the other thing that I noticed was that all of it is about COVID stuff.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
Yeah.
dan friesen
Beginning.
Yeah.
And then it goes into that last one.
jordan holmes
There's finance stuff.
dan friesen
Yeah, it was like CBDC's central bank digital currency.
jordan holmes
Why did they do that?
dan friesen
Well, because Klaus Schwab has his hands in a lot of pockets.
jordan holmes
Yeah, he's got a lot going on.
unidentified
I think.
jordan holmes
What's the name of the album again?
The two Schwabs?
dan friesen
No.
jordan holmes
Schwab is in.
dan friesen
Total Schwab.
Total Schwab.
I don't know.
jordan holmes
Total Re-Schwab.
dan friesen
There's another one about.
unidentified
I don't care who you are, where you are from.
dan friesen
You will eat some bugs.
unidentified
That's a little underwritten.
jordan holmes
I just love it.
I love the idea of like.
Because what's great about it is when he was done with the lyrics and then went to record them.
Like, he had them in his hand.
He was like, this is what I'm going to do.
No producer giving him notes.
Nothing.
This is the shit.
This is in the one take.
dan friesen
This is DIY mentality.
This is.
I mean, the punk scene could learn something from this.
jordan holmes
Fugazi's first album cost 20 bucks to make.
This is twice as good as that.
dan friesen
This is integrity schwab parodies.
jordan holmes
Weird Al Schwabkovich.
unidentified
This blew my mind, I think, a little bit.
jordan holmes
I can't, I can't.
I kind of want to listen to it.
dan friesen
There's more.
And I have one more.
jordan holmes
Okay, please.
Please tell me there's more of this.
dan friesen
I just have one more song.
This was the journey cover.
@snicklink
Trust a small town boy thinking.
Genetically more than fights all boys.
Sis enshoes he does and co-create.
unidentified
Please stop breathing.
dan friesen
Stop the bleeding.
jordan holmes
Oh my God.
Oh, my God.
dan friesen
Stop breathing.
jordan holmes
Bareening.
Please stop burning.
dan friesen
Boy, it's something else.
jordan holmes
Oh, my God.
What is that?
How do I get?
How do I get that?
How do I get that?
I want that album.
I don't think the whole album is a lot of people.
dan friesen
I think that this exists for the sake of a viral video.
You know what I'm saying?
I don't think someone actually made the whole album.
jordan holmes
I want that album.
unidentified
I swear to you, unironically, I would listen to the shit out of that album.
dan friesen
That album is the kind of thing that belongs in the library, honestly.
If there was an actual library, that belongs in a museum.
unidentified
Library of Congress.
dan friesen
I just think about it, too.
Like, it's so funny that someone did it.
Because, like, think about back in the days of when David Rockefeller was the great villain.
Imagine someone making a David Rockefeller sings the hits.
How embarrassing that would be now.
These people don't realize how much of a bill of goods they're being sold about Klaus Schwab being the villain.
They forget that a few years ago, no one was talking about Klaus Schwab, and in a few years, they'll go back to Soros.
This is so temporary.
That's part of what makes this so fucking hilarious.
jordan holmes
Yep.
dan friesen
It's just a flash in the pan, perfect fingerprint of this time in conspiracy culture.
jordan holmes
I will say this.
I will say this, and it's going to break.
This will specifically break one man's heart.
All right.
dan friesen
The guy who's doing the cloud suppression?
jordan holmes
No.
Drufke likes to make the funniest Mambo number five jokes.
And frankly, it's done.
dan friesen
Oh, no.
It's all over.
jordan holmes
Drufke's lost the title of guy who makes Mambo number five.
dan friesen
Do you remember what the Mambo number five parody was?
jordan holmes
God, no.
There was a parody.
There's a part of me that still believes that the original song is a joke song.
@snicklink
One, two, three, four, five, all the unvaccinated are still alive.
A little bit of Pfizer in my arm.
A little bit of bionite does no harm.
A little Johnson Johnson does his fake.
A little Mr Senika, so you don't get sick.
jordan holmes
That's actually not bad.
dan friesen
Yeah, I mean, that's actually the best written one.
Yeah.
Except for the part where one, two, three, four, five, all the unvaccinated are still alive.
jordan holmes
Yeah, sure.
That's part of the part's a little bad.
That's not true.
But you do get, I mean, yeah, for him, there's not much to rhyme with five.
dan friesen
Listing off the vaccines a little bit.
That makes some sense, I guess.
Except for like Mambo number five, it's like he's banging all those gals.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
You're not taking all of those shots.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
So that's sort of a failure in the premise.
jordan holmes
But I do.
dan friesen
But I'm overthinking it a little bit.
I'm being a stickler.
unidentified
I think the ending with sick is not bad.
jordan holmes
It's not bad.
It's a solid end to the rhyme.
dan friesen
Mambo number five.
So anyway, I couldn't do anything after hearing all that.
jordan holmes
No, I can't even focus on much beyond.
dan friesen
I don't think we've laughed as hard at anything.
unidentified
Greater schwabs in a long time.
jordan holmes
That's so stupid.
Now that's what I schwab music.
God, man.
dan friesen
No, no.
jordan holmes
Schwab jams.
unidentified
Keep them coming.
jordan holmes
I swear to you, this is a bottomless well for me.
dan friesen
You know what's so great, too?
Okay, so this is terrible comedy from the sake of like if you're actually trying to create something that is like a good parody song.
jordan holmes
Yes, yes, it's very bad.
dan friesen
But we have seen so many attempts over the years from people like Count Dankula and Carpe Donctum and all these folks trying to be funny, and it's not even funny in a laughing at it kind of way.
jordan holmes
No.
dan friesen
This achieves something that I've not really seen out of these ding-dongs in my years of doing it, which is I really do enjoy laughing at it.
jordan holmes
I do too.
It's so fucking funny.
dan friesen
I don't think that the right is getting better at comedy or humor.
jordan holmes
They're getting the right kind of bad at it.
That's the trick there.
That's the trick because that's some, you know, music's really tough.
Music's really tough.
And comedy and music both require a lot of love to kind of do.
And so whenever you try and combine them, there is a certain sincerity that comes with comedy music.
You know, it's so vulnerable to try and be funny and try and sing at the same time.
And to see a man do it like that, it's brazen.
It is.
There's just, there's only two ways to be funny.
There's as clever and witty and fun and talented as Weird Al, and then there's that.
Those are the only two funny musician things.
dan friesen
Back scenes, back.
unidentified
Oh, right.
jordan holmes
Oh, man.
And it's the commitment to and failure to do the schwab voice that really over the top.
dan friesen
Anyway, god damn it.
A triumph.
jordan holmes
That is truly a triumph.
dan friesen
I heard that for the first time a while back, and I was like, because I was watching the show live.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And I saw that.
I was like, what the fuck is this?
And then I kept meaning to try and find it or whatever.
And then it popped up at the beginning of this episode.
And I was like, that's as insane as I remember it being.
jordan holmes
I'm never going to be the same after that.
All schwab jokes are gone.
Now there is only one, two, three, four, five.
dan friesen
I want to see more ballad work.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
You know, I want to see some more, like, I want to see some stuff from the great American song book.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
Let's see.
unidentified
What?
jordan holmes
I'm up all night to get Schwabi.
dan friesen
All night to get swabby.
jordan holmes
No, I'm up all night to get.
Okay.
dan friesen
I'm Schwabby.
But no mip new for you.
jordan holmes
Oh, Schwab vaccines roll everything around.
No.
dan friesen
Vax me, baby, one more time.
Come on, there's one.
jordan holmes
There's definitely that.
dan friesen
Boom.
Nailed it.
jordan holmes
Wow.
dan friesen
Toxic.
I mean, almost all Brickies read your songs.
jordan holmes
These dogs are already on the top of the road.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
You're a slave to me.
You know, you can just flip the slave to you, lyrics.
jordan holmes
Hello, Klaus Schwab, my old friend.
unidentified
I mean, oh, God.
jordan holmes
There's just a job.
Yeah.
Fill in your blanket, hope.
dan friesen
I was trying to think of a way to make parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme, but switch it with like snake venom.
unidentified
Yeah, a bunch of different things that are in the vaccine.
jordan holmes
Nightshade blood.
Yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
Anyway, this has been something.
And I'm glad we could break your brain on the way out.
Sure ass.
But we'll be back, Jordan, for another episode down the road.
See if Alex quits again.
jordan holmes
Indeed, we will.
dan friesen
But until then, we have a website.
Indeed, we do.
jordan holmes

unidentified
Yep.
dan friesen
We also, there's a new stacky out.

Very exciting.
But yeah, we'll be back.

jordan holmes
