Thanks for holding us. | |
I'm a huge fan. | ||
I love your room. | ||

KnowledgeFight. | |
KnowledgeFight.com. | ||
I love you. | ||
Hey, everybody. | ||
Welcome back to KnowledgeFight. | ||
I'm Dan. | ||
I'm Jordan. | ||
We're a couple dudes like to sit around, worship at the altar of Selene, and talk a little bit about Alex Jones. | ||
Oh, indeed we are, Dan. | ||
Jordan. | ||
Dan. | ||
Jordan. | ||
Quick question for you. | ||
What's up? | ||
What's your bright spot tonight, bud? | ||
Why don't you go first? | ||
My bright spot is tennis! | ||
unidentified
|
Holy shit. | |
The Australian Open. | ||
Second week of the Australian Open beginning. | ||
All right. | ||
Very exciting. | ||
Second week. | ||
Second week. | ||
How'd the first go? | ||
The first went rough for a lot of people. | ||
Ruffa. | ||
Ruffa. | ||
Yeah, rough for a lot of people. | ||
Two American teenagers. | ||
Two American teenagers are in the second week. | ||
That's crazy. | ||
That is. | ||
It's legitimately crazy. | ||
Is one of them Alcaraz? | ||
No, Alcaraz is Spanish. | ||
Oh. | ||
These kids aren't even supposed to, they're like way ahead of schedule. | ||
Okay. | ||
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
People have been talking about them. | ||
When we say teenagers, we mean like 18, 19? | ||
Yeah, 18, well, I mean, well, the end of, yeah, the era of. | ||
It's not like a 13, 14. No, no, no, we're not there yet. | ||
That would be wild. | ||
We're not there yet. | ||
Although Coco Goff was like 14 whenever she broke into the tour. | ||
She's incredible. | ||
That wouldn't be unbelievable to me, but it would also be surprising. | ||
It would be crazy. | ||
But yeah, so these cats, they're on the up-and-comers list. | ||
People are like, hey, three years from now, these kids in their early 20s, they fell out, they get some power behind them, they're going to play well. | ||
This one kid... | ||
Five-set match beat Medvedev. | ||
unidentified
|
Whoa. | |
Five sets. | ||
Wait, the Prime Minister of Russia? | ||
Almost. | ||
He'll be there someday, hopefully. | ||
The 80s are coming back, baby. | ||
Yeah, but it went to like four in the morning there, so I got to watch a lot of it in the United States, and it was crazy. | ||
It was crazy to see that happening, because Medvedev is the kind of guy who wins those matches on account of he's the octopus. | ||
He's just got long limbs. | ||
Sure, and when it goes on for a really long time, you probably favor experience. | ||
Absolutely. | ||
You know, like someone who knows how to stave a little bit in the tank for when you need it. | ||
And he's done it before, too. | ||
Plenty of times. | ||
He's got that, and his style is like, I'm just going to get it back, buddy. | ||
So a lot of those guys, they tire themselves out. | ||
They're trying to hit the ball through him, and he's the octopus. | ||
So he's just long, he gangles, and the ball just lands in the goddamn court every time. | ||
Makes you angry. | ||
All right. | ||
This kid, 18 years old. | ||
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
Beat him. | ||
Crazy. | ||
He beat the octopus. | ||
Beat the octopus. | ||
What's his animal nickname? | ||
Does he have one? | ||
No, his name's Lerner TN. | ||
He's too young. | ||
He's too young for a nickname yet. | ||
They just call him Lerner TN. | ||
The Lerner. | ||
They've tried a lot of headlines. | ||
The school band. | ||
Oh, Lerner teaches Medvedev. | ||
It's not good. | ||
Okay. | ||
Not good. | ||
I see him posing with a ruler. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Or making a ruler into a tennis racket. | ||
Oh, that'll be fun. | ||
I like that. | ||
Nice little Esquire cover. | ||
You know what is very close to a tennis court? | ||
Chalkboard. | ||
Very close. | ||
I mean, in what fact? | ||
Just because there's... | ||
I mean, it's not chocolate. | ||
Well, yes, they are green. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Fair? | ||
Not all chalkboards are green, though. | ||
That's fair. | ||
I think of black when I think of chalkboards. | ||
Yeah, I guess that's true. | ||
But you're right. | ||
There are green chalkboards. | ||
There are some of them. | ||
Yeah, there's tons of them. | ||
Especially in the 70s, whenever they thought green was a cool color. | ||
Sure. | ||
And it still is. | ||
Green's still cool. | ||
Green's still a cool color. | ||
I'm insistent on that. | ||
Of the colors. | ||
Yeah. | ||
One of the cooler ones. | ||
It's up there. | ||
How about you? | ||
What's your bright spot? | ||
So I have two things. | ||
Yeah. | ||
First is checking in on the eating stuff. | ||
Yes. | ||
I have, every now and again, I do a little bit of night eating. | ||
Sure. | ||
I know that your wife is also someone who engages in this kind of behavior. | ||
Staunch night eater. | ||
Yeah, and sometimes it's a little hazy. | ||
Sometimes I have vague memories of something that I got up in the middle of the night and ate. | ||
And this is one of them. | ||
It was something, a candy that someone sent. | ||
It was in a bag of mixed stuff. | ||
So it was like a bunch of different gummy-ish type of things. | ||
And this, I vaguely remember as a circus peanut kind of thing, but it was a banana. | ||
And I've never experienced circus peanut. | ||
But something not circus peanut. | ||
Right, right, right. | ||
So it was the consistency and the, like... | ||
I think so. | ||
Either that or I dreamed it. | ||
I've never... | ||
Yeah, you're right. | ||
The circus penis tastes like circus penis. | ||
It's a single thing. | ||
I've never seen stray from the form at all. | ||
I've never seen, like, a fruity candy corn. | ||
Nope. | ||
That's not how it works. | ||
No, candy corn is candy corn. | ||
It is what it is. | ||
There is no other version of it. | ||
No, and that's why I was very surprised by this. | ||
And so I give it high marks for that. | ||
Even though I don't like a circus peanut. | ||
Also, even if it might have been a dream. | ||
Still high marks. | ||
If I came up with it, it's a great idea. | ||
So the second thing is getting these buttons sent out. | ||
And this has nothing to do with that at all. | ||
Completely separate off to the side. | ||
I have launched a GoFundMe for people if they want to chip in and donate to a good cause. | ||
We're raising money for the Transgender Law Center. | ||
And the name of that, if people want to chip in, donate a little, it is Nap Loving Celine's Call for Justice. | ||
That was the AI-generated name that GoFundMe came up with. | ||
Wow. | ||
Because I guess I mentioned that Celine was taking a nap in the body of the write-up. | ||
Fair enough. | ||
So nap-loving Celine's call for justice if people want to get in on some good charitability. | ||
How have we ever lived without AI? | ||
You know, where would nap-loving Celine come from? | ||
It really cut through the BS. | ||
Yeah, absolutely. | ||
unidentified
|
Just get straight to the point. | |
Sleepy cat is calling for justice. | ||
Yep, done and done. | ||
Boom. | ||
So that's exciting, and I hope people chip in. | ||
We will. | ||
So today, Jordan, we have an episode to go over. | ||
Okay. | ||
And it's going to be a little short. | ||
Sure. | ||
Probably a little bit on the short side. | ||
This is episode 999. | ||
It is. | ||
And so I maybe feel a little bit... | ||
Weird. | ||
I don't know. | ||
I mean, yeah. | ||
We're not people who are really into milestones all that much, but I feel like it might be getting to me a little bit. | ||
The thousand? | ||
I feel like I might be having some... | ||
Thousand was the round number that gets to you. | ||
That's why we don't celebrate milestones. | ||
Because I think it's a crazy fucking number. | ||
Why? | ||
Because it's a thousand. | ||
You know what? | ||
I was thinking this because my wife's mom, a fantastic woman, she texted like, I can't believe you got to a thousand. | ||
And my response was, people eat pasta a thousand times. | ||
In one sitting. | ||
Sometimes. | ||
There's all those spaghettis. | ||
There's all those goddamn spaghettis, right? | ||
Yeah. | ||
So, like... | ||
No, I understand that. | ||
Yeah. | ||
But I think it would also be a little bit strange if you counted the number of times you had pasta and you got to 999. | ||
I think you would start to have some, like, introspection and be like... | ||
Sure. | ||
Do I eat too much pasta? | ||
unidentified
|
Fucking pasta. | |
Here we are. | ||
Pasta, here we are. | ||
And if you knew that, like, other people almost never get to a thousand pasta settings. | ||
Very true. | ||
Like, a thousand podcast episodes is pretty... | ||
Fucking crazy. | ||
It is pretty fucking crazy. | ||
I will admit that. | ||
So I think that maybe I've been a little bit in a state about that. | ||
Really? | ||
Tiny bit. | ||
Yeah. | ||
I just, I feel like, you know, like I said, like the pasta analogy is this to me is as natural as any of the other things I do. | ||
Like, oh, this is just what I do. | ||
I agree. | ||
I agree. | ||
But I have that push and pull. | ||
It's just what we do. | ||
It's just another episode. | ||
But at the same time. | ||
You know? | ||
I get you! | ||
Feels like, do you make it count? | ||
How do you make it count? | ||
I mean, you know, I'm coming up on 30 Days with Sonny, and honestly, that feels like a milestone, so I don't know. | ||
I don't know what to tell you. | ||
Sure. | ||
And then you add into the mix, like, it's happening right at the same time as, like, Trump is taking office again. | ||
Yeah, literally the exact same time. | ||
And eight years of us doing the show. | ||
Yep. | ||
Our anniversary was, like, a week ago. | ||
Yep. | ||
And, like... | ||
All of that's happening sort of in the same ball. | ||
I don't know. | ||
It's a lot to take in. | ||
There's a lot of how things change, how things stay the same very hard. | ||
The conflict and tension between the idea of being in reruns and seeing Alex and being like, this is kind of rerun-ish. | ||
Are we rerunning? | ||
Is 1001 gonna be like one? | ||
The beginning of the... | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
Let's start from the top, everybody. | ||
It's tough. | ||
It's tough to see, like, well, we have the power to not. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Sort of. | ||
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
And so what do we do? | ||
How do we maximize that? | ||
I think eventually we're going to have to go back to the past. | ||
Because it is only by going back to the past that we can truly understand the present. | ||
That's true. | ||
And so I think we're going to have to do 2020 again. | ||
I think we'll do every episode that we did from 2020. | ||
And that'll teach us. | ||
Maybe 2010. | ||
Yeah, that makes way more sense. | ||
Yeah, I actually support that. | ||
Maybe I will explore some of the past again. | ||
I think it's a good idea. | ||
We'll see what happens. | ||
Yeah. | ||
But for now, we're going to talk about the 13th of January, 2025. | ||
All right. | ||
2025! | ||
Skip over to the 16th, because I've lost interest entirely. | ||
Yeah, yeah. | ||
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
But first, let's take a little moment to say hello to some new wonks. | ||
Ooh, that's a great idea. | ||
So first, Gwen and Tessa, ipon soy nagging mofos since 2024. | ||
Thank you so much. | ||
You're now a policy wonk. | ||
I'm a policy wonk. | ||
Thank you very much. | ||
part of that was that they were going to enjoy you trying to pronounce it. | ||
I think I probably nailed it. | ||
I think you crushed it. | ||
Next, Anthony, for Christmas, I'm a policy wonk! | ||
Thank you very much and Merry Christmas. | ||
Merry Christmas. | ||
unidentified
|
Merry Christmas. | |
Next, I just got back from mailing a deep pan of brownies, but now I can't find my bucket of poop. | ||
Thank you so much. | ||
You're now a policy wonk. | ||
I'm a policy wonk. | ||
Merry Christmas. | ||
Merry Christmas. | ||
And we had a technocrat in the mix, Jordan, so thank you so much. | ||
Two, we had to put Lilith down the day Alex announced bankruptcy. | ||
She listened to more knowledge fight than any cat I know, so we still worship at her altar. | ||
Thank you so much. | ||
You are now a technocrat. | ||
I'm a policy wonk. | ||
unidentified
|
Four stars. | |
Go home to your mother and tell her you're brilliant. | ||
Someone sodomite sent me a bucket of poop. | ||
Daddy Shark. | ||
Bomp, bomp, bomp, bomp, bomp. | ||
Jar Jar Binks has a Caribbean black accent. | ||
He's a loser little titty baby. | ||
I don't want to hate black people. | ||
I renounce Jesus Christ! | ||
R.I.P. | ||
Lilith. | ||
Yeah, our animal friends deserve a technocrat. | ||
Yes, for sure. | ||
So we start here on the 13th. | ||
Yes. | ||
And I just was like, fuck you. | ||
Organization for Economic Cooperative Development. | ||
That's the Marshall Plan. | ||
That's the real global government. | ||
That set up the U.N. at the same time after World War II. | ||
That's the Rockefeller-Rothschild combine. | ||
Literally funded its founding. | ||
Look it up. | ||
The funding, the buildings, the infrastructure, everything. | ||
And then start getting governments to sign over sovereignty to it. | ||
Now, they already took over Europe because they'd been blown away and didn't really have a choice. | ||
De Gaulle staged his own little counter coup. | ||
That's why he is a French hero. | ||
And kicked NATO out and grabbed... | ||
NATO's nuclear weapons. | ||
That's a footnote in history books. | ||
You should think it's kind of a big deal. | ||
He got troops together and went into the nuke base at the airport and grabbed the nukes. | ||
Said, I have the nuclear weapons. | ||
I'm in command. | ||
unidentified
|
I'm sorry. | |
Freed France. | ||
Was that the rock? | ||
France still is in the EU today. | ||
Was brought back into it. | ||
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
But it wasn't even called the EU when de Gaulle did that. | ||
He said, I'm not under the OECD. | ||
Look it up. | ||
Then they tried to kill him a bunch of times. | ||
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
The jackal and all that. | ||
So he's a Trumpian figure there, General DeGaulle. | ||
And so, see, people ask how I know all this. | ||
It's fascinating. | ||
Why would you not want to study all this and know how things actually work? | ||
See how things actually work. | ||
I'm not a professional historian. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Especially not... | ||
One of the masters of French history, which I assume is far more complicated, but my understanding... | ||
Especially now that the language has died. | ||
Absolutely. | ||
My understanding was always that de Gaulle, World War II hero, horrible tyrants. | ||
Like, those two things, like, started good, went, didn't go good. | ||
Trumpian figure in part of that. | ||
Yeah. | ||
You could say. | ||
I would say, yeah. | ||
I think Alex's version, also as not a super historian myself, I can tell you that Alex's version of what happened with nuclear weapons in France is a little bit off. | ||
That feels very Sean Connery in The Rock. | ||
Charles de Gaulle is very noted for his... | ||
Not going along with NATO's wishes for France not to develop nuclear weapons. | ||
Right. | ||
But he didn't storm an airport hangar and steal nuclear weapons to free the French people. | ||
And then he said, I'm the captain now to Tom Hanks. | ||
Now the bigger problem is the jackal. | ||
That is an issue. | ||
Is a fake character in a movie. | ||
I was concerned. | ||
I was concerned that for a moment I was willing to gaslight myself into everything I've ever known being wrong and maybe the jackal. | ||
Nope. | ||
Okay, good. | ||
So The Jackal is a 1973 movie. | ||
Right. | ||
That is about attempted assassination on Charles de Gaulle. | ||
Sure. | ||
So Alex is definitely talking about that movie. | ||
It is a very specific thing. | ||
But it is a fake character. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
It is fiction. | ||
Sure. | ||
But this is where it gets all kinds of messy because it's historical fiction. | ||
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
Charles de Gaulle is a character in it. | ||
Right. | ||
the jumping off point is about a real world failed assassination attempt on DeGaul. | ||
Sure. | ||
unidentified
|
But then the jackal and the character and the whole plot of the thing is Alex's brain is not designed to handle historical fiction. | |
It's too fucked up for him. | ||
Okay, is it possible, all right, that the jackal, despite being made post-Charles DeGaulle's attempted assassination, right, was somehow still predictive programming? | ||
To time travelers. | ||
Yeah, probably. | ||
Okay. | ||
Yeah, if I had to bet on something... | ||
A 12-monkey scenario. | ||
I feel like that's what we're doing here. | ||
Yeah. | ||
So, I think when you're citing the Jackal, I have... | ||
Sighting. | ||
I have no time. | ||
Like, he's sighting the jackal and then being like, isn't it interesting to know how things really work? | ||
Yeah. | ||
Like, in a fictional movie? | ||
Yeah, I can't imagine reading, like, a recent history book that has a footnote that then sends you to the end notes, which say, just like... | ||
Day of the Jekyll, comma, obviously it's AP style, 73, you know, it does the whole thing. | ||
I would not trust that any further. | ||
No, no. | ||
It's an indication of poor quality. | ||
Microsoft Encarta. | ||
Well, I think that, you know, if you're writing a paper on ideas and stuff like that, you could cite The Matrix. | ||
Sure! | ||
Because there's ideas explored within it. | ||
There are ideas. | ||
But then if you're trying to cite it for historical... | ||
Notation. | ||
Sure. | ||
Outside of, like, oh, it changed things in cinema. | ||
Right. | ||
If you're doing any historical shit about, like, these fictional movies, you're off base. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
So, like, if you were to write a paper that had, like, at one point, no one knows when the AI officially took over and what year it is, and then you cited The Matrix. | ||
You'd be in trouble. | ||
That could be an issue. | ||
You failed. | ||
Yeah, that would be an issue. | ||
Yeah. | ||
So Alex is talking a lot about the fires in L.A. Sure. | ||
And I realized, as I was listening to it, there's nothing here. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Like, all of it is just that level of, let's cite the jackal. | ||
Right, right, right, right. | ||
Or it's all just the exact same shit he said about Lahaina. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
It's all just Maui fire conspiracies. | ||
Over again. | ||
Yeah. | ||
It's not even worth discussing. | ||
He's not even putting anything new into it. | ||
It's brutal. | ||
Yeah, and so I bid him adieu. | ||
Smart. | ||
And we jump in back on the 16th. | ||
Okay. | ||
And Alex is... | ||
He's in a mood. | ||
He's in a concerned mood. | ||
Okay. | ||
Even though we know that the woke mind virus has been defeated. | ||
Yeah, I feel like we should be celebrating. | ||
We should have celebrated a little bit more. | ||
There should have been a party at least. | ||
Sure, or at least get back to catastrophic contagion or the aliens or something. | ||
We had a mission accomplished... | ||
Things were better back in the day. | ||
We had a full-on mission accomplished banner only a few years into the 20-year war. | ||
That was the big energy that the woke mind virus defeated. | ||
Oh, well, that could be. | ||
We're all realists now. | ||
Elon Musk sitting on an airport or aircraft carrier. | ||
So Alex is concerned here on the 16th. | ||
The spectacular collapse of the globalist system and all their networks and their modes of control is moving so quickly. | ||
I would liken it to a singularity of awakening. | ||
Sure. | ||
A moment where it all comes out. | ||
And then I was trying, right before the show went live, eight minutes ago, to broadcast, to try to quantify in my mind, with all this data, why I'm so concerned, deeply concerned. | ||
A level of concern I've never felt before. | ||
unidentified
|
Cool. | |
Real urgency, a desperateness that the final sand is running out of the hourglass from the top into the bottom. | ||
And then I was culturally, intellectually, mathematically, politically integrating that just during the last one-minute break. | ||
And it hit me. | ||
All of this evil coming out is very good. | ||
But when the general public really finds out how bad things are, and that the globalists have been deliberately killing people and poisoning people and all the rest of it, it is going to cause a lot of mental problems. | ||
I mean, if you think we've got a lot of mental health issues now, people that... | ||
Have bought into the system when they find out they've been totally betrayed. | ||
And that there was a plan to fully collapse civilization that is ongoing, and that even Elon Musk has said he's not sure can be reversed. | ||
So when Alex is saying that he's deeply concerned in a way that he's never felt before, I think it's because there's no more road in front of him. | ||
They won. | ||
They have control of every aspect of the government. | ||
They control the Supreme Court. | ||
Elon Musk owns Twitter. | ||
Rogan and Tucker are majorly culturally influential people who are willing to associate with Alex. | ||
There is no excuse. | ||
The woke mind virus is dead. | ||
If you want me to drain the swamp again, why? | ||
You control all of this. | ||
There's a concern that he's having. | ||
Because after Monday, what's your excuse? | ||
Yeah, that is a really good point. | ||
And things are going to get bad. | ||
Sure, they should. | ||
After Monday. | ||
Based upon everything we've ever known. | ||
Yeah. | ||
And the weak shit excuse of like, oh, the deep state holdovers are undermining Trump. | ||
No one's going to get excited about that again. | ||
You just can't. | ||
We've already done that. | ||
We've gone over this territory, and I think that Alex realizes on some level that, like, fuck, I've really been skating by on getting people scared that maybe Jamie Raskin is going to stop the certification on January 6th, and then it doesn't happen. | ||
Uh-oh. | ||
We're marching forward towards inauguration, and all of the crazy elaborate plots that the globalists had cooked up, none of it's happened. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Okay. | ||
All right. | ||
So here's what we've got. | ||
We've got a Lord of the Rings situation, right? | ||
So you defeat Sauron. | ||
Good. | ||
Great. | ||
Then you've got to go home to the Shire. | ||
But it sucks in the Shire because you can never go home again. | ||
And also, Saruman's still there fucking everything up. | ||
So you can never go home again. | ||
You can never step in the same river twice. | ||
Now you have to diminish and go into the West. | ||
That's Galadriel's point. | ||
You have to diminish and go into the West. | ||
Alex has got to go, man! | ||
I do think that there is very little left for him to reasonably do. | ||
And I think that what it... | ||
Amounts to is diminishing. | ||
Yeah. | ||
And there's a recognition, I think, on some level that he's like, I'm going to have to do some bad shit. | ||
I'm going to have to defend really bad shit. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Or just spin my wheels here for four years. | ||
Okay. | ||
Now here's what I'm thinking. | ||
All right. | ||
So here we rewrite Lord of the Rings. | ||
They defeat Sauron. | ||
unidentified
|
But... | |
They decide that any monarchical leader, anybody who's singular with total power, can no longer be trusted. | ||
They're all possible sorons, right? | ||
So the hobbits, they don't go back home to the Shire. | ||
They go to fucking Minas Tirith, right? | ||
And they're just going to fuck with Aragorn for the rest of their lives until Aragorn goes down. | ||
Then they're headed to the woods. | ||
They're going to take down Galadriel. | ||
They're on a mission to take down every government. | ||
So I think Alex has got to go full on. | ||
Evil Hobbit! | ||
Well, I think that if you expand the metaphor a little bit, I think that is what he's doing. | ||
I think it's a very strained metaphor as it is. | ||
Yeah. | ||
And I think that you also have a situation that Alex, I think, recognizes that he's in. | ||
Yeah. | ||
And that is a bad situation. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Like, it would have been shitty if Ron Paul had won... | ||
And all the government was taken over by We Are Change people back in the time of the Tea Party. | ||
Alex would not be a figure that anyone talked about anymore now if that had happened. | ||
He's in that situation now. | ||
They have what amounts to control over everything. | ||
And I think he realizes that, like, fuck. | ||
If Trump follows through with this idea to do mass deportation drives and stuff like that, they're going to end up brutalizing tons of people. | ||
They're going to end up sweeping up tons of citizens in these dragnets. | ||
We put people in cages last time. | ||
Children! | ||
They're going to displace... | ||
All sorts of people, traumatized communities. | ||
And Alex is going to have to be gung-ho in support of all of this. | ||
He's got to love it. | ||
Yeah, and I think that he realizes, like, ah, shit, this is going to be bad. | ||
I'm going to be the defender of a police state. | ||
And then I think he also recognizes that he chose wrong, even within that box that he's put himself in, by being so defending of Elon Musk. | ||
Because I think that he sees some writing on the wall that, like, The whole sticking true to the hating globalists kind of thing isn't going to be well served by cozying up to this billionaire. | ||
Whenever this fake populism that we have stirred up in people and tried to hide behind, when that comes to a crescendo, I'm on the wrong side of this. | ||
He should be on the other side like Steve Bannon has been. | ||
Steve Bannon's been pretty anti-Musk. | ||
And I think that's the right posturing for the people in this space. | ||
I think Alex is out of step. | ||
Yeah, the problem is the correct thing to do in this situation is you've got one pivot, and that's to go with real populism, to become a person who's the complete opposite of everything that he's ever been, to have a heel turn in his world. | ||
And I don't think that's outside of the possibility. | ||
I think, listen, the American media can't wait to make Alex a hero for turning against Trump. | ||
They've done it like 50 times. | ||
I think they would fall for it. | ||
Yeah, absolutely. | ||
I think a fair amount of people would probably fall for it if he tried it. | ||
They couldn't wait to fall for it. | ||
Yeah, in the same way that he can't wait to be like, oh, Bill Maher said something good. | ||
He's a patriot now. | ||
Totally, yeah. | ||
Or whatever. | ||
The media would be like, oh, Alex has learned his lesson. | ||
They love that shit. | ||
He could do a Glenn Beck if he wanted to. | ||
Totally. | ||
And then he's still got time to do an un-Glenbeck, and he could even tell people he was going to do an un-Glenbeck. | ||
Yeah. | ||
I don't know. | ||
I don't think that his current positioning is worth it. | ||
And I think he realizes that, and I think he realizes how bad things are going to get. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
He's just in a spot where all he has to do is do the thing, right? | ||
He just has to change everything that's about him. | ||
Which is interesting because it does feel like he's been funneled into a place where that's his only rational choice. | ||
His only rational choice is to abandon the past 30 years of his life. | ||
Right? | ||
No. | ||
But you can't do that. | ||
Strongly disagree. | ||
I think continuing down the path that he appears to be going down now is that. | ||
Is that turning on the perception of the last 30 years of his life? | ||
Okay, I apologize. | ||
In order to become a real populist, he would have to stake out positions that he has been vocally against for the longest time. | ||
At least the last eight years. | ||
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
I think that that would be way more interesting than hearing him complain about how, like, People are mad that he likes Elon Musk. | ||
But, hey, we'll see what ends up happening. | ||
Yep, yep. | ||
So Alex's concern, part of it is this idea that once people see the light and see how bad everything is, they're gonna go crazy. | ||
Sure. | ||
And there's gonna be some bad shit that ends up happening. | ||
Fair. | ||
And what are we gonna do with all the, like, fucking useless people? | ||
Oh, let's not do that. | ||
Let's not ask ourselves that question. | ||
Never a good question. | ||
Strange question to hear Alex wrestling with. | ||
Myself, all of you, everybody needs to really get their game face on and get their head in the game. | ||
And we don't have time for playing around. | ||
And I do see a lot of seriousness now, not just here but around the world, by leaders and thinkers at every level. | ||
And so there is a, again, a hyper-fast understanding taking place. | ||
And so, that's the good news is, at least we are dislodging a lot of the really bad guys that set this up. | ||
And that have created so many of these crises and exacerbated others and not let others that they didn't create go to waste. | ||
I just hope humanity understands that we are in an emergency. | ||
And, you know, I see people on the left and the so-called right attack me, and I talked about this last week, going, oh, Jones, you know, has had another emergency broadcast. | ||
I mean, have you looked around you? | ||
Is that us? | ||
I feel like that's us. | ||
77% of young people are too sick and fat and mentally ill to be able to even pass the basic military entrance exam that is... | ||
I mean, people with 80 IQs can pass that. | ||
I mean, we're talking low-grade morons. | ||
Is that how that works? | ||
And what do you do with all these people that have been drinking red dye number three and aspartame, and their mothers didn't breastfeed them, so they were on formula that absolutely lowers your IQ massively. | ||
And so the globalist project to poison everybody... | ||
Goes on, even if we stop it and cut out what they've been doing, we're already so damaged from the COVID shots and all of it that, yeah, we're winning this death battle and the bad guys are going to get it. | ||
And we have a responsibility to be brutal and merciless in... | ||
And dislodging them and prosecuting them and imprisoning them so they can't keep doing it, and to scare their minions to not try to reorganize what they've done. | ||
But that's the first stage of this. | ||
And we have to understand that if we're not hardcore, it's over. | ||
We're going to blow the planet up. | ||
I've heard people say a lot less extreme things than that, and Alex has said that they're calling for extermination of the useless eaters and what have you. | ||
This is fucked up. | ||
Like, I know that if you want to be overly generous, you can look at this and say, like, he's not calling for killing off those 77% of people who can't pass military tests. | ||
Wrong. | ||
Absolutely not. | ||
But he is, he's saying, what do we do with all of these stupid people that weren't breastfed and got vaccines and now are useless? | ||
If they're around, we're going to blow ourselves up. | ||
The world's going to end. | ||
He's making preemptive kind of overtures towards locking up idiot people, people that he views as idiots, or people who believe left-leaning politics. | ||
Yeah, I remember being annoyed because I remember having so many like, slippery slope, slippery slope, you do the thing. | ||
And I've realized that those are the same people who are not making slippery slope arguments. | ||
They're just lying about their true arguments, right? | ||
I've read a bunch of books by, you know, like, where... | ||
We're philosophers, but also we're, you know, all that stuff. | ||
And eventually they get to a certain point where they're like, it's not eugenics. | ||
And you're like, that's when you start talking about your eugenics! | ||
It's not eugenics, but. | ||
You are, yeah, you're doing the thing. | ||
Stop it. | ||
Stop acting like you're not doing the thing. | ||
No, no, no, it's about breastfeeding. | ||
No! | ||
Absolutely not. | ||
Nobody's, anytime people are like, oh, what are we going to do with all these useless people? | ||
It is never, well, let's just give everybody an apprentice. | ||
We double the workforce immediately. | ||
Everybody has somebody that they just teach to do their job. | ||
That's it. | ||
Done. | ||
That's definitely not the way that this vibes. | ||
Never an idea. | ||
It's always like, well, we gotta get rid of him. | ||
No! | ||
Well, I think that one of the things that, you know, obviously Alex made a lot of money on basing his career around is stuff like Yuval Noah Harari saying things like... | ||
There are going to be a whole class of people that are going to be unemployable in the future when we have automation and robotics and stuff. | ||
Alex has decried that as a mentality that is genocidal and exterminationist, and he's mirroring very similar thoughts. | ||
Yeah. | ||
He should... | ||
Check in on that. | ||
No, it's objective. | ||
It's objective to just rationally look at the resources that we have right now and conclude that we have to eugenics a bunch of people. | ||
Makes perfect sense. | ||
I think he should... | ||
I don't know. | ||
I don't want to say go back to booze, but... | ||
This is a bad look. | ||
I think he's got to go Scorpio from The Simpsons. | ||
He's just got to have an underground lair, volcano style, get some henchmen, just do it up. | ||
I'd like an underground lair. | ||
That'd be great. | ||
I think we all deserve an underground... | ||
What are we going to do with all those useless people? | ||
Give them underground lairs. | ||
Start a public works program where we build underground lairs. | ||
Nope, can't do it. | ||
We got to get rid of them. | ||
So on this episode, the 16th, Alex has a guest. | ||
Yeah. | ||
It is not a very interesting interview at all. | ||
Sure. | ||
But the fact that it happened is really, really wild. | ||
Okay. | ||
Do you want to try and guess who it is? | ||
It's not Kevin Sorba. | ||
I mean, it feels that one is probably my crowding achievement. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Is it Roseanne again? | ||
unidentified
|
No. | |
No, because we already know that. | ||
I'll tell you, it's not an American. | ||
It's not an American. | ||
Okay. | ||
Archbishop Desmond Tutu. | ||
Is he dead? | ||
I think he's dead. | ||
unidentified
|
Shit. | |
And Alex would not have a good interview with him. | ||
Well, that's why it would be very surprising. | ||
Yeah. | ||
I would be shocked to see that interview. | ||
That would be very surprising, yeah. | ||
No, it is Kalen Georgescu. | ||
Never heard of that person. | ||
You have, at very least in passing. | ||
He is the ultra-nationalist candidate for the presidency of Romania, who they threw out the first round of elections when he won. | ||
Right, I do remember that now. | ||
I had something to say about Eskew's being... | ||
Yes. | ||
So he's on. | ||
Great! | ||
Alex landed an interview with the guy who was leading in the polls for the presidency of Romania. | ||
Right, right. | ||
So he's got a Romanian Nazi on. | ||
Sort of. | ||
Alex gives a long introduction to him. | ||
So I'm going to try to go to our very special guest and give him the floor here to speak. | ||
He speaks great English, but... | ||
Great start. | ||
Understand, ladies and gentlemen, 17 years working within the United Nations, serving as the OHCHR Special Repertoire on the Adverse Effects of Transportation of Toxic and Hazardous Products on Human Rights. | ||
Product Director of the UNDP, UNEP, Representative for Romania's National Council, Executive Director of the UN Institute for the Global Sustainability Index. | ||
That's the model of the whole global ESG system. | ||
I mean, this guy's at the top. | ||
He served as president of the European Research Council for the Club of Rome. | ||
I mean, that's the top. | ||
2013-2015. | ||
And was a member of the International Club of Rome in Switzerland. | ||
I'm going to stop there, because we've only got 45 minutes, 50 minutes left with him. | ||
You've got to go. | ||
After he leaves, I will read the bio up front when we're still live next hour, and I'll tag you in front of this when we upload it to X. This needs to get 100 million views. | ||
So... | ||
Colleen Georgescu just had his victory stolen from him. | ||
He is the admitted president of Romania. | ||
They're not even denying they took it from him and the people of Romania. | ||
And they're saying it's the model for everywhere else. | ||
And since then, they've dissolved Parliament in Canada, and Trudeau's not resigning. | ||
And that's not even a major news issue. | ||
So, Colleen, thank you so much for your time, sir. | ||
We really appreciate you. | ||
We can talk about what's happened with the election, the big demonstrations against it, all the things that are happening. | ||
But to me, go there first if you think it's best. | ||
But the time we have, I'm going to just don't stop because I'm trying to give you the floor. | ||
Maybe we should go back to the beginning about who you are, what you did, top diplomat, directing one of the top systems for the UN, developing their entire scoring system for global government. | ||
I mean... | ||
You are a true insider, and then your whole process of being read into what it was really about, which you've exposed before, but I want you to recap for those that don't know, and then going to your country, galvanizing the people, leading them back into freedom, and helping bring the world to the verge of nuclear war, and then they stage a coup against you and your people, and then admit it's a coup. | ||
This is unprecedented. | ||
So, sir, that's a long introduction. | ||
Thank you so much. | ||
Thank you. | ||
Thank you so much. | ||
Thank you, Alex. | ||
Thank you for having me today. | ||
And I very much appreciate your introduction, which is amazing in the sense of the spirit of Romanian people, because this is the most important point. | ||
Great and historical nation speaking about Romania. | ||
I'm very proud that I'm part of a Romanian nation. | ||
I'm very proud that I'm Romanian. | ||
But nevertheless, that we have to take care about our humanity. | ||
I think this is the most important point. | ||
So this is insane that this is happening. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
That this interview is happening. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
And it's also insane the way that Alex is presenting things. | ||
Georgescu does have this stuff in his resume. | ||
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
He was pretty high up in the Club of Rome. | ||
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
He's a diplomat and such. | ||
Did the stuff. | ||
Yeah, that stuff's fair enough. | ||
He did not win the election. | ||
Wow. | ||
He won the first round of the election that went to a runoff, and then that was canceled. | ||
Sure. | ||
So they didn't take away the presidency from him as much as they disrupted that process, and there's a new election that has been scheduled. | ||
Sure. | ||
I believe in May. | ||
There's a redo. | ||
Yeah. | ||
And part of the reason for this is he was polling very low. | ||
And then there was a blitz of a ton of advertising on TikTok. | ||
Right. | ||
And a lot of it, based on things that have been released by the Romanian intelligence agencies, there is strong belief that these things were paid promotional ads for his campaign that were undisclosed political advertising. | ||
Right. | ||
Which is illegal. | ||
Right. | ||
So, this is the big concern that led to him jumping from, like, 5% to 23% in the polls. | ||
Right. | ||
23% was enough to lead in the primary round, the first round. | ||
Yeah. | ||
The second place person had, like, 19%. | ||
So, there's going to be a runoff between them. | ||
And I think odds are, if those numbers were continuous and legitimate, he had a decent chance at winning the second round, the runoff. | ||
But you have what is essentially a quagmire here, you know? | ||
Like, there isn't really a good thing to do. | ||
Right. | ||
I mean, I think ultimately they are doing the good thing, though, is that if you do an illegal thing that gets you to the thing, you have to redo it. | ||
Like, we don't do that. | ||
We have a system wherein, like... | ||
Roger Stone can go to jail in 2016 for all kinds of weird stuff affecting the election, but we'll just keep the results. | ||
Sure. | ||
And we'll let the person who benefits pardon that guy. | ||
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
That's totally fine. | ||
That makes sense. | ||
But like... | ||
The issue that why I'm describing this as a quagmire, while I agree with you, I think that if there is illegality here, throwing out these results and doing a do-over makes sense. | ||
But it is a quagmire. | ||
And the reason is because, realistically, throwing out that election is... | ||
Probably going to make him a higher profile candidate. | ||
Probably. | ||
And create the appearance of everyone being so afraid of him. | ||
It's going to make it more likely that you redo the election and he gets even higher numbers, probably. | ||
Sure, it's possible. | ||
It feeds into the ethos and story of characters like him. | ||
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
Electorally. | ||
Absolutely. | ||
So if you're trying to stop him as a candidate, this is not what you would do. | ||
But that story is easy to tell for someone like him and someone like Alex. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Yeah, but, you know, I mean, at a certain point, you just gotta do it. | ||
You gotta do it. | ||
It's illegal, so we gotta do it. | ||
You know, like, unfortunately... | ||
Well, fortunately for them, right? | ||
Their system works on, like, an almost... | ||
Like, it's a fail-safe. | ||
Like, the law is a fail-safe, which is kind of what it should be. | ||
Like, if shit is so wrong that it's illegal, we gotta do it again. | ||
You know, it's just what it's got to be done. | ||
Yeah, and I don't want to fully back this because I don't believe from everything that I've seen, I know exactly what happened or what these paid advertisements were on TikTok. | ||
And I think that it is easy to overstate. | ||
Some amount of, like, what evidence do you have that these were paid advertisements as illegal campaign stuff? | ||
Totally. | ||
So I want to leave the window open there for a little bit of, like, hey, there could be some shady shit going on. | ||
There always is. | ||
Yeah. | ||
But from what has been provided to my awareness at this point, if that is the illegal campaigning that's done, yeah, throw out those results, do it over. | ||
I just think that... | ||
The story that's being told is of a power structure and the UN that cannot tolerate the idea of Georgescu getting in. | ||
Right. | ||
So they're doing a Georgescu. | ||
Right, but they're not. | ||
No. | ||
The actions that they're taking... | ||
They aid him. | ||
They're very reasonable. | ||
But they also aid him from a public image standpoint. | ||
Probably. | ||
Yeah, so if you were them and you were going to try and pull off a coup of some sort, this is not what you would do. | ||
unidentified
|
No. | |
You wouldn't let him on the second ballot. | ||
You wouldn't let him on the redo election. | ||
Sure. | ||
I mean, that would be what you'd... | ||
Or if this was information that you kind of deep-throated. | ||
You know, and then you would release it deep throat from the thing. | ||
I gotcha. | ||
unidentified
|
Not... | |
I getcha. | ||
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
But then you could, like, release it as an October surprise kind of thing, and then you alter the race. | ||
Like, that would be more effective than being like, hey, guys, sorry, the rules are, you know, nobody wants to replay the last point. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Yeah. | ||
And it's... | ||
I mean, overall, it's just like, wow, okay. | ||
This guy does have a reasonable chance of winning this election when they redo it. | ||
And here he is with Alex. | ||
It's fucked up! | ||
You know what, today Kudos released another video, which, god damn, they're great. | ||
They're very enjoyable. | ||
On YouTube. | ||
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
And I wish it weren't about us, because it feels very navel-gazy just to enjoy it. | ||
Like, they're really well done, but it's about me, so I feel like an asshole. | ||
Well, it's more about Marty Schachter's soap company. | ||
So that's what I'm saying. | ||
It's like... | ||
Man, that's a guest. | ||
That's a guest right there. | ||
The three limerick shot that he took. | ||
Brutal, brutal attack on Alex's psyche. | ||
But it's a guy who has a soap company. | ||
It's not the Romanian possible prime minister. | ||
Right. | ||
In the in-between state between the election results being thrown out and the redo election. | ||
He's at a time when this is the most impactful time that this person could be. | ||
Yep. | ||
Here. | ||
And he's choosing to come on Alex's show. | ||
Yep. | ||
Which is crazy. | ||
It is insane. | ||
Because a lot of the time it is, I mean, it is still like inconsequential lunatics who end up showing up on Alex's show. | ||
unidentified
|
Totally. | |
This is someone who's, you know, fairly relevant and possibly a world leader. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Fucked up. | ||
Which is interesting because it's so much like the means are the message, right? | ||
It doesn't matter if he, what he says on Alex Jones and Infowars. | ||
What matters. | ||
Yeah, and it's not really all that interesting of an interview from somebody who was, like, high up in the Club of Rome talking to Alex. | ||
You'd think, like, oh man, we're gonna get in the weeds. | ||
This is gonna be really interesting. | ||
Totally. | ||
And instead, there's a lot of stuff about how this election is unfair, and obviously... | ||
I get why he's saying that. | ||
And then a lot of kind of vague platitudes about how inside the UN they don't care about peace, they care about war because it's profitable. | ||
And sure, I mean, just from a 30,000 foot view, I get what you're saying. | ||
Sure. | ||
But it's, yeah, it's not very interesting. | ||
It's just that it happened. | ||
Yeah, I just, if it's me doing the thing, if I'm going to go on Infowars and I'm this guy. | ||
I'm definitely not worried about credibility loss. | ||
So I go on and I play ball with Alex. | ||
I'm talking about sex parties that never happen. | ||
I'm talking about people who are fucking crazy doing all this shit. | ||
I'm not saying names, because I'm smarter than Alex Jones is. | ||
You know, I'm doing all this stuff. | ||
I'm having a ball. | ||
I can't imagine trying to be a reasonable, like, well, I feel like... | ||
My vision for the country is better. | ||
Yeah, he just comes off as kind of like, you know, a politician I disagree with. | ||
Yeah. | ||
But, like, I want, if you're talking to this guy who's an insider who has all this shit, let's get, let's... | ||
Let's do this. | ||
Totally. | ||
Instead, the level of preparation that Alex seems to be expressing is the, you already won the presidency, I'm going to superimpose all kind of Trump talking points onto you. | ||
Right. | ||
And I just, I don't know, I don't find it, I think it's shit. | ||
Yeah. | ||
So Alex tries to play big dog. | ||
Okay. | ||
With Georgesco. | ||
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
But the situation of Europe is very, very difficult right now because they invest a lot, a lot of money in this war. | ||
But in any case, the wave is coming, because you have seen the situation in Austria, you have seen the situation in Croatia, which also a leader, a real leader. | ||
That's right, I forgot to add, they've been trying to block the election results in Austria for over a month. | ||
Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. | ||
But in any case, important is that the wave is coming, and it's a snowball effect of the sovereignty, not only in Europe, but in whole. | ||
world. | ||
unidentified
|
And of course, I really hope that President Trump will act about this situation as soon as he will be confirmed in January 20. This is a very important position, which we are looking, all of us, Yes, sir. | |
I'm sure you're already doing this, but I would advise you to get in contact with his top people. | ||
But just go there when he's there. | ||
He will meet you. | ||
And believe me, you need to come meet with President Trump. | ||
Obviously, that would be a very dangerous trip because they know that's the right move. | ||
But Trump, I know, is aware of the situation. | ||
But if he meets with you and learns the details, that would be the move. | ||
Yeah, look, what I want to mention here is that the legacy media... | ||
Notify permanently a wrong situation in Ukraine. | ||
Definitely, in my opinion, Zelensky won the PR war, but Putin won the real war. | ||
Yeah, so he's very much against supporting Ukraine. | ||
Sure. | ||
And that's one of the reasons why... | ||
Everyone likes him. | ||
unidentified
|
Right, right. | |
This is the thing. | ||
Gotcha. | ||
But I think that there's two kind of implications inside this clip that are wild. | ||
One is that Alex is trying to connect Drogescu with Trump. | ||
Yep. | ||
That seems like that connection might already be made, but Alex seems to think that he's a central spoke in this wheel, which is fucking insane because he was just citing the jackal earlier. | ||
Ah! | ||
But then the second thing is that Alex seems to be presenting a position that Trump doesn't know about this. | ||
Yeah. | ||
And that seems weird. | ||
Alex should think that Trump already knows about this. | ||
Sure. | ||
And is very concerned about major... | ||
Election results. | ||
And he's taking a personal interest because he's got his own election results. | ||
No, no, you've got to just show up at Mar-a-Lago. | ||
He'll talk to you. | ||
It'll be totally cool. | ||
Once he knows about what you're going through, he'll totally get your back. | ||
That's weird. | ||
It feels like it shouldn't be allowed for a person to sound this reasonable as though he's, like, talking to a person. | ||
Like, what are you doing? | ||
This guy just recently cited the jackal as a major issue for Charles de Gaulle. | ||
Right? | ||
Like, you shouldn't be like, oh, well, I prefer this candidate. | ||
Fucking dance! | ||
Do a little, throw some salt in the air. | ||
Do something crazy. | ||
Yeah, it would be nice. | ||
Instead, they're having a... | ||
Normal conversation about how maybe Alex will get him into the inner circle of Trump. | ||
That's fucking infuriating! | ||
It is. | ||
It is. | ||
So really, just to have one more clip, because their interview really isn't that interesting. | ||
Like I said, it's just that it happened. | ||
But Alex is declaring him the president of Romania. | ||
Well, okay. | ||
President George Eskew, you are the president. | ||
They admit you were the winner. | ||
And the fact that they're now bragging at the EU that they'll do it in Germany and cancel the AFD win. | ||
If they win, is extreme arrogance. | ||
And can you just speak to that? | ||
I mean, this is one of the most naked coups I've ever seen in the last hundred years, and I've studied history. | ||
This is flagrantly out in the open. | ||
Why do you think they're so arrogant? | ||
And as you said, your own media keeps acting like it's not a coup, but then the EU and NATO leaders are bragging. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Because they are disparates. | ||
They are doing a lot of mistakes. | ||
So Alex has declared him the president of another country. | ||
This is weird. | ||
There's so much projection just of, like, what he feels about Trump. | ||
He's now Romania's Trump. | ||
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
And I don't think that's good. | ||
No, it is strange to, like, confront a real-life, like, everything is associated with the God King. | ||
Like, it is really strange because they're treating him not like, not even like a president or like the fucking queen. | ||
They're treating him like a pharaoh. | ||
Like a straight-up, like, he is God's representative on Earth because he is also part God, and when he dies, he will return to godhood alongside the other pantheon. | ||
And until he revisits us, his son will fill in for him because he has a piece of it. | ||
Totally! | ||
And then we'll just do the thing again. | ||
I'm fine with building a pyramid if we just do it right fucking now and we don't let him govern and shit. | ||
You know? | ||
Like, let's do that. | ||
Like, let's just bank a pyramid up. | ||
I'm also fine with you being like, he is our god king and all of this, because then we can respond accordingly. | ||
Sure. | ||
Like, I am totally fine if you want to have a messianic religious connection with Trump and argue that he should be president based on that. | ||
Sure. | ||
If you're going to be transparent and open about that, then we can, you know, have a conversation about that. | ||
Right. | ||
As opposed to this kind of bullshit. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Where you're trying to have it both ways. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Have it political and demons walk among us and attack Tucker in his sleep. | ||
Like, it's bullshit. | ||
Yeah. | ||
It is a situation where it really exemplifies that concept of the meek shall inherit the earth. | ||
Kind of the thing, like, calling people the meek, you know, is to a certain extent saying... | ||
The massive amount of people that there are in a vacuum, if you were like, oh, if you cheat on an election, should you still win? | ||
They would be like, no. | ||
And even if it's your guy, and they'd be like, no, cheating is wrong. | ||
We all know this. | ||
It gets complicated because there's like 50 other really powerful, famous liars who are like, they're cheating. | ||
And then you'll never know. | ||
You know, like it is the moment whenever everybody can just be like, we all know cheating's bad. | ||
We all do. | ||
It's crazy. | ||
It's crazy. | ||
The tension that you have a lot of times when it comes to an election year is that you have to support one side because the other side is Trump. | ||
There is not room for a little bit of nuance in that. | ||
And Alex gets himself into that kind of position where the enemy is the devil. | ||
And so Trump has to be acceptable no matter what. | ||
What isn't preferable to the devil? | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
He said that the police should have one rough day. | ||
Trump has said that stuff. | ||
Alex can't possibly rationalize that. | ||
But the alternative is the devil. | ||
Yeah, I mean, the justification of your immortal soul has really been used for a lot of bad things. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Because what's more important? | ||
Your immortal soul. | ||
That's the most important. | ||
It's forever. | ||
So it justifies doing anything to your mortal body as long as the immortal soul is saved. | ||
And we're hosed because people really like to fuck with your mortal body. | ||
Yep, and they've connected your soul to Trump somehow. | ||
Jesus Christ. | ||
Fuck me. | ||
We'll be back. | ||
But I don't know. | ||
There's a lot of roiling thoughts. | ||
Let's just do 1001. | ||
Sure. | ||
Let's just skip it. | ||
Let's just fucking skip it. | ||
And we'll put out a little note saying this was where 1,000 would go, and then we'll do 1,001. | ||
We'll get back to it later. | ||
We'll get back to it. | ||
Yeah, we'll be better tomorrow. | ||
But yeah, I just think that having all of this kind of percolating at the same time, it's been eight years of this show, thousand episodes, Trump is coming back into office. | ||
Alex is a dipshit clown, and he is interviewing a guy who's conceivably going to be the president of Romania. | ||
And that guy is treating him as though he's not a dipshit clown. | ||
Yeah. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
It's a lot to digest. | ||
It's too much. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Too much for any one group of people to digest. | ||
So maybe we take a tiny little breakie. | ||
That's true. | ||
And we'll see you next time. | ||
Yeah, absolutely. | ||
But until then, we have a website. | ||
Indeed we do. | ||
It's knowledgefight.com. | ||
Yep. | ||
We'll be back. | ||
But until then, I'm Leo. | ||
I'm Leo. | ||
I'm DZX Clark. | ||
I am the Mysterious Professor. | ||
Woo! | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah! | |
Woo! | ||
Yeah! | ||
Woo! | ||
And now here comes the sex robots. | ||
Andy in Kansas. | ||
You're on the air. | ||
Thanks for holding. | ||
Hello Alex, I'm a first time caller. | ||
unidentified
|
I'm a huge fan. | |
I love your work. |
