#1126: Do Not Drink In The Pool

Dan Friesen and Jordan Holmes critique Alex Jones' intoxicated appearance on Tim Pool's show, where he falsely claims David is the Messiah and mocks Joe Rogan. They expose how Jones validates Project for a New American Century war strategies while promoting baseless conspiracy theories linking UK hereditary peers to Muslim dominance. The hosts condemn his medical decline and lack of research, arguing his erratic behavior signals a catastrophic failure for his brand and reinforces dangerous right-wing narratives about Israel and global control.

Speaker Time Text
Welcome to Knowledge Fight 00:05:38
dan friesen
Hey, everybody.
Welcome back to Knowledge Fight.
I'm Dan.
jordan holmes
I'm Jordan.
dan friesen
We're a couple dudes like to sit around, worship at the altar of Celine, and talk a little bit about Alex Jones.
jordan holmes
Oh, indeed we are, Dan.
dan friesen
Jordan.
jordan holmes
Dan Jordan, Jordan.
Quick question for you.
dan friesen
What's up?
jordan holmes
How's Survivor doing?
dan friesen
You know what?
I got to stop you because I have a bright spot.
I go first in the month of March as his tradition.
unidentified
Okay.
dan friesen
And I'm not talking about survival.
unidentified
Okay, okay.
jordan holmes
Don't talk about survivor.
dan friesen
I want to talk about it.
unidentified
Okay.
dan friesen
I had fun with this bit, but maybe it's just, maybe it's run its course.
Who knows?
I don't really have that many things to say about it.
jordan holmes
Bits come and go.
dan friesen
Anyway, it's a boomerang bit, if you will.
Yeah, and it has come back to me.
And now I'd like to drop it.
And no, my bright spot, I'm going to throw out the movie Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die.
unidentified
Oh, yeah.
dan friesen
I watched that.
Checked that out.
Had a great time with it.
jordan holmes
Grand movie.
dan friesen
Such fun.
unidentified
Yep.
dan friesen
Sam Rockwell is just on fire.
unidentified
Perfect.
dan friesen
Just a nice, goofy, fun time that also feels like it's saying something.
unidentified
Yep.
jordan holmes
I mean, no notes.
Fantastic job, guys.
If you don't like parts of it, yeah, that's fine.
People don't like parts of it.
But I thought it was great.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And I think that it really benefited from this doing something new.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
Lately, which is I'm going into movies not knowing anything about what's going on.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Just complete, complete blank slate.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And I think that not knowing what this was going to be like or how this, you know, I think that really made the experience a lot better.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
I agree.
dan friesen
Like, I can't, I'm sure Hamnet is good.
jordan holmes
But are you?
dan friesen
No.
unidentified
Okay.
dan friesen
But I know too much.
I've seen too much.
jordan holmes
About the characters, about the play.
dan friesen
I saw the trailer, and that's too much.
jordan holmes
That is too much.
dan friesen
I saw the trailer for Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die.
I didn't really know what the fuck is going on here.
This could go a hundred different directions.
jordan holmes
Nope.
dan friesen
I feel like I know Hamnet.
jordan holmes
Hamnet told you exactly what you were going to see.
And you don't really need to see that.
dan friesen
They might do it well.
jordan holmes
Maybe they did.
dan friesen
I don't care.
jordan holmes
Nope.
Not particularly.
dan friesen
Not going to see Hamnet.
unidentified
No.
dan friesen
Not going to see the Smashing Machine.
unidentified
No.
dan friesen
You can't make me.
unidentified
No.
jordan holmes
I'll never see Nuremberg either.
Not going to happen.
dan friesen
That's on your list of the you can't watch that.
jordan holmes
No, I see it.
I know what it is.
I know the guy.
I even know some of the stories about how articulate and bullshit.
Fuck that.
I don't need to see the movie.
dan friesen
Fine.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
I'm not making you.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I don't want to.
dan friesen
So what's your bright spot?
jordan holmes
My bright spot, Dan, is that sometimes we go out of this room to do a version of our show in a place with other people.
dan friesen
That has happened.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
And so my bright spot is that we'll be doing it again.
unidentified
What?
Yep.
jordan holmes
On May 16th.
unidentified
Huh?
Yeah.
jordan holmes
You better believe it at Two Brothers Roundhouse.
Yep.
So what you can do is go get tickets on Saturday morning at 9 a.m.
That's when the tickets will go live.
dan friesen
We'll put the link in the description to this episode.
It's a smaller venue, so like, you know, probably might sell out for the next one.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I would send an alarm.
dan friesen
Come, do it.
jordan holmes
I mean, it would not bother us at all if it took like two months to sell.
No big deal.
But if I was you, I would send an alarm at nine.
dan friesen
It's a nice brewery.
unidentified
Yep.
dan friesen
Our friend Matt Drufke does a show there.
unidentified
Absolutely.
jordan holmes
We're excited to do a show.
unidentified
Yeah.
Yeah.
jordan holmes
It'll be great.
dan friesen
I think this is the first show in Chicago since that one at the playground where no one came because no one knew what our show was.
jordan holmes
Yep.
I mean, and it's not even in Chicago.
dan friesen
It's fair.
Chicagoland.
jordan holmes
Greater Chicagoland area.
But man, for all those people.
dan friesen
Nothing quite like when we did that show at the playground.
And in the middle of the show, someone in the audience asked me to pass the 30-pack of beer that was on stage.
jordan holmes
Amazing.
And of course, we did.
They got it.
dan friesen
Types of change.
jordan holmes
What an interesting.
I bet none of them even have any clue that there were like four people.
dan friesen
No, Kevin.
Because like Kevin Hogan and Nate Burroughs.
jordan holmes
Burroughs left.
dan friesen
Your wife was there.
jordan holmes
I know my wife.
dan friesen
Four people there were our friends.
jordan holmes
That's what I'm saying.
I'm pretty sure there were four people there.
unidentified
Derek Smith.
dan friesen
Smith was there.
jordan holmes
Derek Smith was definitely there.
unidentified
Absolutely.
jordan holmes
I think that was where he gave us those shirts.
dan friesen
Yeah, the ketchup and mustard shirts.
jordan holmes
Those are great.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Yep.
It's all memory lane.
dan friesen
Anyway, two brothers.
jordan holmes
Two brothers.
dan friesen
Tickets on sale Saturday.
jordan holmes
Saturday morning, 9 a.m. Central Time.
unidentified
Fun.
Yeah.
dan friesen
So, Jordan, today is something less fun.
We have an episode to go over.
And we'll talk about it in a moment.
But first, let's take a moment to say hello to some new wonks.
jordan holmes
That's a great idea.
dan friesen
So first, thank you for coming to Portland and for getting me through my commute.
I will never see 420 the same way again.
Holly, thank you so much.
You're an AOL Policy Wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much.
dan friesen
AC Green.
unidentified
Yep.
Yep.
dan friesen
Next, D-Magic Loves Dan's rap references.
Thank you so much.
You're an AIO policy wonk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much.
dan friesen
Thank you.
And tell Alyssa Moore that Lee Man loves her and the horse she rode in on.
Thank you so much.
You're an Iowa Policy Walk.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
unidentified
Thank you very much.
dan friesen
Thank you.
And we got a technical credit in the mix, Jordan.
So thank you so much to Can My Dog Wink be a policy wonk?
Thank you so much.
You're an Ao Technocrat.
alex jones
I'm a policy wonk.
unidentified
Four stars.
Go home to your mother and tell her you're brilliant.
Defending Unwanted Beliefs 00:08:03
pastor james david manning
Someone sodomite sent me a bucket of poop.
alex jones
Daddy Shark.
Bomb, Jar Jar Binks has a Caribbean black accent.
He's a loser, little, little kitty baby.
I don't want to hate black people.
I renounce Jesus Christ.
dan friesen
Thank you so much.
jordan holmes
Thank you very much.
dan friesen
So things are bad for Alex.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
You know, he's going about his business and having to defend all kinds of things that he shouldn't be defending.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And, you know, the March 7th date has come and gone with his possibly going out of business.
And so it just bores me that we're going to have to stay in the present day and talk about his show.
unidentified
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Who is that?
Who's that coming down?
dan friesen
Is that Tim Poo?
unidentified
Oh, my God.
Is that Tim Pool?
dan friesen
Tim Pool's got a chair.
jordan holmes
Wait, who's Tim Poole is that guy?
dan friesen
Tim Poole's another.
unidentified
Yeah.
Yeah.
jordan holmes
He's one of those guys.
dan friesen
Yeah, Alex.
Alex was recently on Tim Pool's show.
jordan holmes
Oh, my God.
Why?
dan friesen
I don't know.
jordan holmes
Oh, man.
All right.
dan friesen
There's a part of me that feels like in this era of Alex, it's kind of more fun to watch him be put upon other people.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, I agree.
dan friesen
There is something about them.
There's an inherent embarrassment to them interacting with him that doesn't sue, it doesn't really totally exist for him.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
He's shameless.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
And so, like, him, he doesn't need to be embarrassed to be himself.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
But these other people should be embarrassed to be talking to him.
jordan holmes
Yeah, if you've got a man made of shit, then the shit man is like, I know I'm made of shit.
You're the one who's covered in shit.
dan friesen
I can't get shit on me.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I am shit.
I'm just a shit man.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
You're now, you smell bad now.
unidentified
Yeah.
Yeah.
dan friesen
So he was on Tim Poole's show and something funny happened.
jordan holmes
So there we are.
Here we are.
dan friesen
So in the course of doing this show, one of the biggest and most popular figures in the right-wing media is someone that we've largely ignored.
That person is Tim Poole.
And the reason I've never really been too interested in covering him is that he's not a serious person with serious convictions.
He's really just someone who's interested in attention.
And he's made it clear throughout his career that he's willing to lie and contradict himself if there's enough clicks in it for him.
So it's not worth trying to grab on.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
If you go to his pages on Rumble and other platforms, all of his video titles are clickbait bullshit.
Like, they finally said it, or it's actually happening.
unidentified
Is it?
dan friesen
Yeah, apparently.
jordan holmes
Oh, good.
That's nice.
I haven't seen things actually happen for quite some time.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Russell Brand does the same kind of shit, and Alex has his own version where everything is always an emergency episode.
It's a sign of desperation, but also it must work.
Even if 80% of the people who see these titles laugh and think you look like a sad child begging for attention, the other 20% might be curious enough to see if this is finally the video with a title like that that pays off, and that might add up to a fair amount of traffic.
Enough to pay the bills.
jordan holmes
Yep.
dan friesen
Either way, Tim Poole doesn't suck in the right way for me to find interesting at all.
He's a shithead and I hate his beliefs, but I don't believe that his beliefs are sincere.
If someone paid him enough, I'm pretty sure he'd say whatever he needed to for the check to clear.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
But Alex was on Tim Poole's show, and I think there's something more appealing about seeing Alex trying to exist in other people's spaces.
So we're going to take this in and see what there is to learn, which is not much, and Alex might be dying.
unidentified
Yay!
dan friesen
So we start off with Tim Poole.
unidentified
Okay.
dan friesen
Talking about the wave of Islamic terrorism that's going on in the United States.
jordan holmes
Okay.
tim pool
Today we saw two attacks, and we know one of them was a man who yelled Ali Wakbar.
The other attack on a synagogue is suspected to be Islamic terror.
So the rumors going around are that we have two Islamic terror attacks, possibly retaliation over the war in Iran, which we had seen another terror attack in New York City, the throwing of an improvised explosive device, as well as the attack in Austin.
So of course, the expectation is, well, we don't have the complete information on the synagogue attack.
It was a vehicle reportedly owned by a man from Lebanon who was naturalized and lived in Dearborn, Michigan.
So many people are saying, hey, that, you know, if it looks and sounds like a duck.
dan friesen
I feel like Tim likes to present himself as someone who's above the if it looks like a duck level of reasoning.
A lot of animals who aren't ducks look like ducks, man.
The temple attack that he's talking about in Michigan appears to have been carried out by a guy who has family in Lebanon.
The perpetrator died in the attack, thankfully the only casualty of it.
So we may never know exactly why he did it, but there are some indications that he had family members in Hezbollah who were killed in Israel's recent strikes on Lebanon.
It would be somewhat inaccurate to say that this is the same thing as his attack being inspired by Trump's attack on Iran, but at the same time, there's good reason to believe many of these actions are happening in the shared context of a larger war.
jordan holmes
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
So while I don't agree with the way that Tim's framing this, someone else might be able to make a better argument using similar pieces.
jordan holmes
I was wondering about that.
Is it a terror attack?
You know?
That's a really interesting kind of distinction to make in the context that we're in.
Is it a terrorist or is it like a just response?
It's not one you like, but.
dan friesen
I think if you wanted to make an argument using some definition of terrorist, that this isn't terrorist terrorism.
I think you maybe could be successful with that, but also I think that, generally speaking, the way we use language, it's terrorist stuff.
jordan holmes
I do not want to make an argument.
It was just a thought that I had.
dan friesen
So the other attack Tim is talking about was at Old Dominion University, where a former National Guard member shot at students at an ROTC class.
He yelled Alau Akbar before shooting, but this also isn't super surprising because he had gotten out of jail recently where he was serving a sentence after pleading guilty to providing material support to ISIS.
These are awful tragedies, and no one should have to experience this kind of shit.
But from a media messaging standpoint, it's critical to understand that Tim and his ilk need to amp up the idea that there's a clear and existential threat from Muslims in America.
The premise of supporting Trump has become silly at this point.
So the only way to keep the public engaged and on board is through a campaign of terror about the enemy within.
It's basically a problem reaction solution type thing.
jordan holmes
Something along those lines.
dan friesen
The solution they need to push is voting for Republicans in the 2026 midterms, even though all of these candidates have been shit and Trump is clearly a tyrant.
Most people aren't interested in voting for these guys and honestly might not want to even vote at all after all this shit.
In order to get the solution that they want, folks like Tim create the appearance of a problem.
In this case, widespread out-of-control Muslim terrorism.
He'll bang the drum on how this is the biggest problem in the world and how society will collapse unless someone takes care of it.
This is his work to help produce the desired reaction, which is having a large segment of the population demand that some leader come along who promises to take care of the Muslim terrorism problem.
And if you can make people demand and need this kind of protection from a leader, you can get them to accept the solution they wouldn't have accepted before.
You have to vote for all the GOP candidates because if you don't, the Democrats will win and they're working with the Muslim terrorists who want to kill you.
jordan holmes
What you going to do?
unidentified
Boom.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, it's hard not to look at this and go, Japanese internment camps.
We doing that again, huh?
unidentified
All right.
dan friesen
Well, Tim had his way.
If Tim and Alex, like, based on what they're saying, had their way, it's not too far off.
jordan holmes
This is the start of that.
It's not like they went from zero to Japanese internment camp.
There had to be a beginning of like, well, we know these two things are connected, so what do we have to do about that?
Why Tim Poole Cares About Money 00:02:22
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
And so on.
dan friesen
So Tim has another news story that's going to lead the coverage of the day.
unidentified
Okay.
tim pool
And then, of course, the UK is officially over.
They have ended House of Lords.
And they're removing their civic leaders from their currency to be replaced by the noble hedgehog and perhaps a beaver and other nature scenes because the tradition is basically gone.
jordan holmes
Hey!
tim pool
And a whole lot more, my friends, before we do get a great sponsor for you.
It is Beam Dream.
Head over to shop, B-E-A-M.com slash Tim Pool and pick up your nighttime sleep blend to support better sleep.
dan friesen
Beam Dream!
jordan holmes
Beam Dream, baby!
dan friesen
I couldn't tell if he said Beam Dream.
jordan holmes
I heard that.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
I don't know.
Anyway, the House of Lords is one of the chambers of parliament, and they recently adopted a bill that would remove the remaining people who are in the body just because of a title that was handed down to them generations.
jordan holmes
Yeah, obviously, that makes sense.
dan friesen
This is a continuation of a bill from 1999 that limited the number of hereditary peers who could sit in the House to 92.
And honestly, the House of Lords is kind of silly.
jordan holmes
Obviously.
dan friesen
It includes 26 members who are known as the Lords Spiritual because they're archbishops and church figures, and then the rest are Lords Temporal.
jordan holmes
Great.
Amazing.
dan friesen
Come on, let the Brits be Brits.
jordan holmes
Jesus Christ.
dan friesen
Crazy stuff.
Anyway, the UK isn't over, unless Tim thinks that power being handed down generationally is a good thing, which I think he will say later.
jordan holmes
Great.
dan friesen
Also, Tim's just an idiot about the pound.
In 2025, they decided to explore putting conservation-themed fronts on the bills, replacing the previous series that had featured folks like Winston Churchill, Alan Turing, and Jane Austen.
That was series G of the currency, and it was introduced in 2011, but it was never meant to be permanent.
Prior to that, they had series F that featured a 20-pound note with Adam Smith on it, and series E that had Darwin on the 10.
All the while, the queen was on the other side of those bills, and that's not changing, except it'll be the king.
This naturally raises the question of why the fuck does Tim Poole care about the aesthetic design of another country's money?
jordan holmes
My question.
dan friesen
And the other, like, the obvious answer is that he doesn't.
One of his staff just skimmed past a headline on Twitter or in the Daily Mail, and they decided that it was good enough to fake some concern about, and hopefully they can kill a few minutes of the show talking about it.
Jokes at the White House 00:15:47
dan friesen
This is just wasting time between ads.
It couldn't be more like dumb morning radio.
unidentified
Yep.
dan friesen
Like, we've got a new British pound.
Does that mean we're going to get rid of hereditary titles?
jordan holmes
Right.
We have to fill time.
So much time.
You don't even know how much time we have to fill.
If you've ever tried to do morning radio, it never ends.
dan friesen
Ironically, Tim Poole is creating the exact thing that podcasting succeeded in spite of.
It was a reaction to the vapidity of that form of content.
jordan holmes
What if we just didn't have to?
What if instead of having to do four hours of nonsense, we could just do the stuff that is sense?
dan friesen
Yeah, cut the fat off this thing.
jordan holmes
Somehow that was like turned around on us and going like, well, we need to fit four different ad breaks.
So that means that you need to record for at least two hours.
That means we need to have at least three to six minutes of ads.
dan friesen
YouTube's algorithms have made it so they've prioritized launch time.
And so these videos that I put out have to be at least two hours long.
Oh, fuck.
Anyway, it sucks.
jordan holmes
It does.
dan friesen
And it reminds me of bad stuff I used to listen to on Y107.
jordan holmes
Yep.
dan friesen
Anyway, another story that he covers before bringing Alex in is about Rogan.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
They're going to do this UFC event at the White House.
jordan holmes
Yeah, got rid of the UFC of Lords.
unidentified
No.
dan friesen
They're going to do a big UFC event at the White House.
Did you know about this?
jordan holmes
Of course I didn't know about this.
dan friesen
Big punch event at the White House.
unidentified
Love it.
dan friesen
Because it's man stuff in America.
jordan holmes
It's a man's stuff.
dan friesen
And so Rogan is like, hey, it seemed, look, it's a little ways down the road.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
But it seems weird to be doing that while we're at war with Iran.
It seems like we would be bringing a ton of people at the same place at the same time, creating a great opportunity for someone to attack the event.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And so that's Rogan's like, he's not saying don't do it.
He's just saying kind of like, I hope the war is over by then.
jordan holmes
Right, right, right.
I mean, you know, put the president in the middle and see how it looks from the space.
And maybe it's a bullseye.
dan friesen
So Alex does not, he comes in and he does not like the idea of Rogan being such a wuss.
tim pool
Joining us tonight to talk about this and so much more is the great Alex Jones.
alex jones
Oh boy.
jordan holmes
The great.
unidentified
Who are you?
What do you do?
alex jones
I was thinking about Joe Rogan's vagina right now.
tim pool
That's a weird way to introduce yourself, Alex.
alex jones
Well, Joe's like, I love Joe.
Like, oh, my God, we better not have an event.
The terrorists might get us.
We just give up and go away.
We can't ever have a meeting because the Iranians might stick their ding-dong us.
I think Joe's afraid of the Iranian ding-dong.
tim pool
You're a Joe Rogan commentator professional?
alex jones
Oh, I like Joe.
I'm surprised by Joe saying that.
dan friesen
Coming out the gate.
jordan holmes
I would, here's what I would say: here's what I would say: the first thing I would say to Alex would be, You're drunk.
How about that?
We should probably not do this.
We don't have to.
dan friesen
Would you like some beam dream?
This is go to sleep.
jordan holmes
This isn't live, guys.
We've been resting.
It is live.
Oh, fuck you, idiots, you fucking idiots.
dan friesen
No, it is.
jordan holmes
Oh, my God.
Jesus Christ.
dan friesen
Yeah, but still, you could say, hey, this is live.
jordan holmes
You can't be here.
dan friesen
Hey, I just got a text from your agent.
unidentified
Right?
dan friesen
Get out of here.
jordan holmes
Buddy, you are drunk.
So, hey, listen, you're drunk.
And you know what?
That'll be fun for me.
But let me just be clear to my audience.
This man's shit-faced.
You shouldn't listen to a shit-faced man.
dan friesen
Oh, I think they recognize it.
And I think that the other guys there, the other sidekicks, are kind of laughing at Alex.
unidentified
Yeah.
alex jones
Like, oh, let's have a USC event.
Why don't the Iranians get us?
I mean, I'm against the war, let's be clear.
But let's keep the buses and the trains and the airplanes on time.
Let's not fucking, oh, the fucking Iranians might get it.
tim pool
He's already swearing.
alex jones
I'm already swearing.
Gotta follow every little AI rule.
No, no, here's the deal: let's all just hide in Joe Rogan's vagina and then we'll all be safe.
unidentified
Jesus.
tim pool
Good to have you, Alex.
dan friesen
It's gonna be fun.
tim pool
We can all be aware of it.
alex jones
Joe Rogan vagina.
tim pool
Luke is safe.
alex jones
Can we all just fly up into it?
We're all safe.
phil labonte
Safe in Joe Rogan.
tim pool
Thanks for coming.
unidentified
Luke.
What an introduction.
alex jones
Like, safe under her black wings.
I'm saving Joe Rogan's big-ass pussy vagina.
unidentified
Well, there you go.
Yep.
dan friesen
It's killing.
jordan holmes
I mean.
Yep.
That is.
That is some.
Oh, I don't.
unidentified
Okay.
jordan holmes
I don't think I'll say her name.
All right.
But I will say this.
There was an open mic way back in the day at the Laugh Out Loud Theater.
And there was this person who had a character called Madge Jablonski.
And it was painfully, painfully unfunny, which is why it was the funniest thing that I'd ever seen.
And so it got to this situation where she would say something and the audience would go, no.
But then they'd all turn around to look at me because I was cackling like a hyena.
That's what that felt like whenever he was saying that.
I was like, no, no rational human being should enjoy this.
That's why I love it.
dan friesen
Maybe it would be safe in Joe Rogan's pussy.
unidentified
Yep.
jordan holmes
Perfect.
That's brilliant.
Do more of that.
unidentified
More.
jordan holmes
Someone pay him for this.
Do you not hear the genius happening right now?
Joe Rogan's vagina?
unidentified
What?
dan friesen
Unprompted.
jordan holmes
He doesn't have one, according to life.
dan friesen
And this is inspired by Rogan being like, I would be a little careful about these kinds of like a large event like the UFC at the at the White House in the middle of a war.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Yo, fucking vagina, man.
It's awesome.
So stuff.
jordan holmes
What's the movie about the president getting kidnapped?
Olympus has fallen?
unidentified
Something like that?
dan friesen
White House down.
jordan holmes
Yeah, White House down.
dan friesen
White House is down.
jordan holmes
White House down.
dan friesen
So Alex, I think he realizes his jokes aren't going over great.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And so he decides to pivot and ask them to fight.
tim pool
Luke's here.
unidentified
There's that.
Yes.
luke rudkowski
I don't know how to do it.
Good to be here with some old friends.
alex jones
I declare war on Joe Rogan.
God has ordered me.
I love Joe.
Joe.
phil labonte
He's going to show up at your house.
unidentified
Okay.
tim pool
I guess.
jordan holmes
Luke's here.
unidentified
Yeah.
Hi, guys.
alex jones
I don't know what you're saying.
You all on right now.
You guys are fucking tough.
You guys, you're pretty tough.
How about we just fucking fight right now?
You're fucking real, man.
All of you.
jordan holmes
Come on.
unidentified
Let's go.
alex jones
Everyone of you, let's go.
Let's grab those fucking badass more.
Come on, let's go.
Did you fucking take me?
Let's see what happens in there.
tim pool
I think I can take you.
alex jones
No, you can't.
jordan holmes
Why don't you fucking do it now?
alex jones
Every fucking man in here.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
Let's go.
Eight, let's go.
tim pool
Robbie will fight you.
alex jones
I'm ready.
unidentified
Robbie.
alex jones
I'm ready.
That's a big motherfucker over there.
unidentified
I'm ready for war.
tim pool
I'm ready for war.
dan friesen
Yeah, that's good.
jordan holmes
It didn't take long to challenge people to a fight.
dan friesen
No, everyone.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
All of you.
You're mad and I'll fight you.
jordan holmes
Like most sober people do within less than five minutes he challenged everyone there to a fight.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
I don't know if Alex can really understand that in that moment, everyone is laughing at him.
Like he's a clown dancing around for their entertainment.
unidentified
Yep.
dan friesen
And that's all good and well, but I want to focus on how Alex is joking about declaring war on Joe Rogan, and he says that it's what God told him to do.
He's obviously joking, and we're not supposed to take it seriously that God told him to fight Joe, but this introduces a real problem.
There are other times that Alex says God told him to do things, and we're supposed to hear that not as a joke.
And because of that dynamic, Alex, this kind of joking is abusive to the audience.
If you're a prophet and you publicly define yourself as someone who God speaks through, then you need to carry yourself with a very strict level of respect for God's word.
You can't joke about God telling you to do something because God does tell you to do things.
So what if someone listening doesn't get that you were joking about it this time?
You've just committed blasphemy and possibly encouraged someone to do something evil thinking that God commanded them to through you.
Regardless of how anyone is treating him or how clearly drunk Alex is, his actions and jokes make it clear to anyone watching that God is a joke to him.
Being told things by God is a joke to him.
Prophecy is a joke to him, and the audience is the butt of the joke.
That's not cool.
jordan holmes
It's a fun character, right?
The drunk priest who, like, I believe, but do I really believe?
Because I'm drunk.
Bye, bye, bye, you know?
But if you think about, like, can you imagine Elijah, right, setting that pillar on fire and then gets shit faced later on that night and is like, ha ha, I might do it to you?
I can just send people up.
God goes and burn that guy.
No, I'm just fucking with you.
I'm not going to get God to.
Or wait am I?
You don't know.
I can call fire from the sky.
dan friesen
No, it's stupid.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it's crazy.
dan friesen
It's when you combine this with who he wants to be seen as as a prophet.
Come on, man.
jordan holmes
You can't do it.
unidentified
No.
jordan holmes
You just, you can't.
Sometimes there's room for being a little bit of a goofball, but I don't know.
I just feel like God probably isn't there for that.
dan friesen
I think you can do it as long as everyone's laughing at you.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
But the world that we live in now with the people who are in the powerful positions that they are, it's not.
jordan holmes
Probably not wise.
dan friesen
No.
So Alex, I think he can tell that there's discomfort because his jokes aren't landing and now he's threatening to fight everybody.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
And so he tries to explain to Tim, like, hey, man, I'm giving you viral content here.
alex jones
I'm ready to fucking live in Joe Rogan's vagina.
tim pool
Let's start with the news.
alex jones
Hey, I just gave you the most viral clip of the year to joke.
unidentified
You're trying to.
alex jones
Comedy, I love Joe.
I suck his pussy every night.
unidentified
It's just that.
alex jones
It's Lizzie Brown when he puts it in the middle of the morning.
tim pool
He tried to be family friendly.
alex jones
We're all neocon.
tim pool
I'm not going to get the show taken down.
alex jones
I'm with the engineer.
tim pool
I'm like, get the show taken.
unidentified
Oh, Lindsay.
alex jones
Oh, Lindsay.
And like, and I watch like Rubio gets in, and then, and then in comes Hugabee with his 12-foot, and they just boom, boom.
jordan holmes
The aristocrats.
tim pool
How could he be sad long, huh?
alex jones
That's what I do.
Those neocon cocks.
And then y'all comes in with an A-footer.
tim pool
I imagine Huckabee's watching being like, I'm kind of offended, but that is a compliment.
dan friesen
I think that Alex is drunk.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
I mean, that's all I think.
jordan holmes
Here's what I think.
dan friesen
He's having weird, sort of violent, homoerotic fantasies.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And he's drunk.
jordan holmes
My feeling on this is Tim Poole has already made a huge mistake.
unidentified
Yeah.
Right.
dan friesen
I think he's realized his mistake.
jordan holmes
Right, exactly.
And his response to that is incorrect.
He's going to try and get a handle on this.
He's trying to interrupt.
He's trying to be on top of it.
My man, you let him cook.
You just let this dude cook and then see what happens.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
You got to be there to pick up the pieces.
You're not going to be able to direct to the train.
dan friesen
No, there's no conducting this orchestra.
jordan holmes
Nope.
dan friesen
It is.
Whatever is going to happen is just going to happen.
jordan holmes
Yep.
dan friesen
And yeah, I think that he's foolish to think he can host, even though he outnumbers Alex like four to one in the middle.
jordan holmes
Literally four to one.
Perhaps eight men there or something to fight.
dan friesen
One of them is Luke Radowski, Ludkowski, however you're supposed to pronounce it.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
Alex's old buddy from We Are Change.
So you think like maybe this is going to help.
It's not.
jordan holmes
Nope.
dan friesen
Another guy is Ian, who Alex is friends with.
I don't remember why he's come up before in the past, but we've talked about him.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
So you think you have like allies.
jordan holmes
Nope.
dan friesen
But it doesn't matter.
jordan holmes
Too weak.
dan friesen
He's too drunk.
jordan holmes
Yep.
unidentified
Yep.
jordan holmes
When the sauce takes him, you are along for the ride.
dan friesen
But it's also interesting, like if you play out his fantasy that he's discussing, all of these neocons have giant dicks.
unidentified
Yep.
dan friesen
And they're all fucking Trump.
jordan holmes
Yep.
dan friesen
Like Trump doesn't have agency in this.
He is the receptive person who this is being done to.
I think Alex needs to recontextualize his world to understand that Trump is someone with a dick who's doing the fucking, too.
You know, he's someone who has control over what he's doing.
unidentified
Right.
jordan holmes
I think I think a lot of people.
So with humor for for, you know, for comedians and stuff, we've written jokes.
We've done all this stuff.
But for a lot of people experiencing it, I think they see humor as a as like, oh, there's some things being hidden spoken about there.
which is not always the case.
But in this case, I think he's saying things that he's not supposed to be saying in his mind.
dan friesen
Sure.
unidentified
You know?
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Like, this is inhibitions that aren't there.
And he's not thinking.
dan friesen
Well, I think part of it is the crassness of it.
He thinks that crass just equals humor.
jordan holmes
That's definitely true.
dan friesen
But whatever.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Not funny.
jordan holmes
Nope.
dan friesen
So they play the clip of Rogan expressing his peace.
And you get the sense that Alex, I don't know if he's even here.
tim pool
Here's the story from the Daily Mail.
Joe Rogan fears White House will be targeted by Iran during UFC event.
We have a short clip for you.
It's only 40 seconds, but we'll play it to give you the context of what Joe was talking about.
unidentified
Are you excited for the White House card?
That looks really good.
joe rogan
Yes.
I'm excited.
It sounds crazy.
I know it's going to be very high security and high stress and weird to have a fight in the middle of a fucking war.
I would hope the war will be sorted out by June, but quite honestly, I'm not confident that that's going to be the case.
unidentified
No.
Yeah, no.
joe rogan
Yeah, so that would be weird.
Having this very high-profile event where everybody's in one place at one time right there.
unidentified
I hadn't thought of that.
Yeah.
So you're not excited to be there?
joe rogan
It seems like you're asking for.
unidentified
Holy shit.
I haven't thought of that at all.
joe rogan
How could you not think of that?
unidentified
Because I'm not going to be there.
You're the one who has to think of it.
alex jones
Because Joe Rogan is the goddess.
His holy vagina realizes it's a threat.
tim pool
I don't.
I am not really concerned about the White House itself.
You know, of all the places we secure in this country, Iran's not going to do anything at the White House.
alex jones
Yeah, no, I love Joe, but I mean, that is a major pussy statement.
unidentified
What?
dan friesen
Where are you, man?
jordan holmes
Tim, you're not going to win this.
dan friesen
No.
jordan holmes
There's no win.
You have fucked up.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And sort of by acting like you're taking this seriously, you lose more.
You dig yourself deeper in the quicksand.
unidentified
Yeah.
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Well, what do you think?
What are you talking about?
You have a drunk gorilla sitting next to you.
dan friesen
Who really wants to talk about vaginas?
jordan holmes
He just challenged everyone to a fight.
dan friesen
Oh, fight all of you in Instagram is a big dick.
jordan holmes
He's not going to be like, oh, I'm sorry.
Have I gone too far?
I'll pull it back a little bit.
dan friesen
And I'm doing this for funny.
Because funny.
Humor is illegal, Elon told me.
jordan holmes
There is something funny about watching these people just really do this to themselves.
dan friesen
Wait till the end of this.
I think you're going to go on a ride.
So Alex and Tim and the collection of brilliant minds around the table, they're talking about attacking Iran.
unidentified
Sure.
The Insanity of Israel Politics 00:15:01
dan friesen
And Trump should have done it differently.
tim pool
You heard what Rubio said about why we got involved.
Israel was going to make an attack on Iran.
We knew that there would be a retaliation targeting the United States.
So Rubio says, we don't want to defensive posture.
So he decided to go in with them.
alex jones
Which they had a testimony in Congress two days ago confirming that.
So Israel made us do this.
You know me.
I'm not the guy with a heart on for Israel, but Israel should not be calling our shots.
tim pool
Agreed.
And I think Trump should have been like, good luck.
ian crossland
Yeah, because if they'd responded and attacked us, then we could have been like, hey, we have no choice now.
tim pool
Exactly.
ian crossland
But this makes us look like an aggressor.
alex jones
Exactly.
We should have taken the attack.
jordan holmes
Just look like.
alex jones
Then blow the shadow.
tim pool
And there's the challenge, right, because that's – and you know this better than anybody, but the Project for a New American Century, when they – who was it who said – April 2020, we had a Pearl Harbor event to launch the American Empire.
And then there was that quote that I think it might have been Rumsfeld saying, sometimes we need a terror attack to remind people of what we're protecting them from.
alex jones
He said we need 3,000 dead.
dan friesen
So it seems like these are just dumb guys having a dumb conversation.
But if you know about what Alex is supposed to believe and understand what he thinks about the Project for a New American Century, this conversation is actually an invalidation of his whole career.
They're saying it was dumb of the United States to attack Iran and get this war going just because they knew that Israel was going to attack Iran.
What we should have done is let Israel attack, then wait for Iran to attack us, which we could then use as a pretext to enter the war and not look like people who were itching for a war.
If you follow their train of thought, they're just saying exactly what the evil people who wrote the Project for a New American Century document were saying.
They were saying that for the public relations purposes, it's always better if you can justify your war as being a response to someone else attacking you.
A war in Iraq would require a Pearl Harbor type event, much like World War II literally required a Pearl Harbor.
Alex and these idiots are just saying that Trump should have waited for a Pearl Harbor event before launching his war in Iran, which is possibly a good PR argument, but it's fucking insane to hear conspiracy theorists saying that.
Let's say that Trump did wait until Iran attacked us before getting involved in the war.
Then what?
Are we not supposed to think maybe the attack could be a false flag that was done to justify getting us into the war?
Like, Alex thinks that 9-11 and Pearl Harbor were both false flags.
So why would this one be any different?
This is so out of line with the framework that he's built.
And he should know that.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it is like they are cognizant of what they are saying.
You know, like whenever they're doing this whole like, the new American Century, They're also saying, that is a good idea, though.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
You know, like, that's the unspoken subtext is these people are brilliant.
dan friesen
It works.
jordan holmes
Look at how brilliant they are.
That's why we have to be twice as smart.
But then they just get here.
Because that's just who they are.
They are their own enemy.
It's in their heads.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
In that clip, I don't really take too much fault with Ian, who is the one who said that Trump should have waited until we were attacked, and that would justify being involved.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
I don't know enough about him or have any feelings about him.
So from a neutral standpoint, it is more justified to attack somebody after they attack you than the reverse.
So I take his point as like, fine.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
Alex responds to that by saying, exactly.
And that's the problem.
From Alex's standpoint, this can't possibly be an acceptable.
These fucking guys are idiots.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
No, it is interesting because it feels like what they are doing is giving the globalists their best tyrant ideas.
So then whenever they've got a tyrant, they're just saying exactly what they're regular.
That's their idea.
dan friesen
Sure.
jordan holmes
You know, that's all they've got.
They don't have better ideas to compete with.
dan friesen
Nope.
Well, Alex does have one idea.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
It's bad.
Pretty bad.
jordan holmes
Oh, yeah.
alex jones
Well, I'll be honest.
If there was a magic red button to send the Muslims to Mars, I'd hit it.
jordan holmes
That is a bad idea.
alex jones
They just put the head of Al-Qaeda before Trump got in in charge of Syria.
Israel created Hamas.
So here's the deal.
If we were actually fixing it, I'd be for it.
Islam's cancer.
But we don't fix it.
We put worse Muslims in.
dan friesen
So yeah, Alex wants genocide of Muslims.
jordan holmes
Okay.
So if we don't fix it, we put worse Muslims in.
dan friesen
That's inevitable, apparently.
So he would like to take care of the problem with a solution that's final.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
You know?
jordan holmes
You know?
dan friesen
Like a button that sends them all to Mars.
jordan holmes
Here's a question that I have, right?
If all the Muslims were sent to Mars due to one button press, does that make you more or less likely to believe that Allah is the one true God?
I don't know, but also I think it makes me more likely to think Allah's got something going on.
dan friesen
Yeah, I don't know.
Maybe.
You're also never going to get rid of all the ideas.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that would be silly.
dan friesen
Maybe what are you going to send all the books to?
Maybe there'll be some new Muslims that pop up a couple months down the road.
Look, this sucks.
It just sucks.
jordan holmes
It does suck.
dan friesen
And Alex is drunk and speaking freely, and so he can just be like, yeah, I want them all gone.
I would love it if they were all gone.
jordan holmes
Yeah, but can you imagine any of these idiots coming up with something along the lines of like, well, have we considered talking to them?
unidentified
No.
dan friesen
Have we considered to Alex?
They're less than human.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
You can't talk to them.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
They don't have God's divine spark in them or something.
Anyway, Tim is like, he's sitting there.
He's like, hey, everybody's talking about Israel.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Israel is a hot topic in the right-wing media.
jordan holmes
Soup's hot.
dan friesen
Why is that?
jordan holmes
Good question.
What's up, Attorney?
tim pool
Like the Israel stuff.
alex jones
It's retarded.
I've never been to Israel to do with Israel.
Anytime I'm like, people like, we rained today.
Israel did it.
I'm like, well, no, it's like.
tim pool
You know, the reason I ask you is because you've got more experience in the independent media space, particularly when it comes to government conspiracy, psychological operations, and all that.
And, you know, you've been here longer than anybody else.
And then all of a sudden, over the past six months, there's been this dramatic shift online where now everyone's just talking about Israel doing everything all the time.
Like, all the conspiracy stuff that you've talked about when it comes to liberal economic order, you know, Project for a New American Century, all that is just gone now.
No one cares.
None of that exists.
It's just Israel did it.
alex jones
It's because Qatar doesn't lie about it.
They spent like $20 million a year on this.
And so it doesn't mean that stuff about Israel isn't true.
They have changed the whole subject into that instead of China and the EU trying to censor Americans.
So I'm like, hey, the EU census Elon Musk with huge fines or Brazil, shut up Israel.
So it's kind of like a public woke up like a baby duck, kind of in principle, first thing it sees.
So the public woke up, and so the Muslim Brotherhood, which Qatar funds, said, oh, the first thing you see is Israel.
dan friesen
It's so funny to hear Tim desperately trying to take this idiot sitting in front of him seriously.
Alex is a clown.
He sounds like he's dying and he's clearly drunk.
Why the fuck would anyone think he has a good answer to the question, what's up with this Israel stuff?
jordan holmes
What a ridiculous concept.
dan friesen
But since Tim asked, I'll go ahead and answer it for him.
unidentified
Okay.
dan friesen
It's Trump's fault.
And to some extent, Alex's and his own.
jordan holmes
Yep.
dan friesen
The right-wing media audience has always been comprised mostly of two sides.
One is right-wing politically, and the other is just racists and anti-Semites.
These groups don't like each other and tend not to get along.
So in 2016, it was hard to come up with a candidate who could build up the kind of coalition that could compete with a decent Democratic candidate.
Bush had really ruined a lot of that cohesiveness.
The media surrogates that promoted Trump made sure to promise both sides of the audience that Trump would be the exact guy they've been waiting for.
To the right-wing folks, he looked like a guy who would lower taxes and slash all public assistance programs.
To the racists, he looked like the guy who would guarantee a white majority in the country.
Trump looked like the compromise candidate for people who couldn't come to a compromise.
And because he had a penchant for acting dictatorially, both of these sides didn't really see any reason that he couldn't fulfill their agendas.
But as it turns out, Trump sucks.
He can't get shit done.
And he's doing the same or worse things that other politicians have done in the past.
He's covering up the Epstein stuff so transparently that he had to run his top ally out of Congress because she wouldn't shut up about it.
He's changed two regimes in the past few months with the rippling consequences of those actions still to be seen.
We have no fucking idea what's going to come from that.
unidentified
Nope.
dan friesen
They promised that Trump was going to be different, that he was going to get things done.
And they wasted the whole, it was the deep state narrative in the first administration.
Now there's no one left to blame, and everyone is coming to realize that Trump sucks.
Much like they did with the deep state in the first term, the Trump-leaning media folks are desperate to come up with a new story to tell, one that doesn't end up revealing they sold their audience years of lies about an asshole.
And the current one is that it's all Israel.
Israel obviously deserves criticism, and I'm not saying that their government isn't involved in Trump's decisions, but the reason that the media landscape that Alex and Tim operate in is so full of Israel stuff is because it's become clear that Trump sucks.
And blaming everything on Israel is the new way for the dipshits in that media to continue profiting and avoid self-reflection and realizing, oh, we were had.
This is our fault.
We fucked over our own audiences.
Whoops.
jordan holmes
Whoops a doodle.
dan friesen
Yeah, that's why, Tim.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Tim.
jordan holmes
Yeah, you know, I wonder if people just like different flavors of Nazi.
You know, like, I want to get rid of all the Muslims.
unidentified
Aha ha.
jordan holmes
I want to get rid of all the Jews.
You guys are the same guy.
unidentified
Right.
jordan holmes
You know, you're the same guy, right?
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
Like, I think that this is something that is so, you know, we've talked about it before.
The fundamental argument that Nick and Alex have, Nick Fuentez and Alex have, is whether or not Jewish people can be white.
alex jones
Right.
dan friesen
And that is different schools of their knowledge.
jordan holmes
Not likely, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's different flavors.
dan friesen
Alex believes they can be white if they convert to Christianity.
Yeah. Jesus Christ.
That's basically.
jordan holmes
I hate pretend.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Here's what I think.
All right.
I just think that all those people who lost their jobs a while back should just get those back, right?
dan friesen
Which ones?
jordan holmes
You know, like the university professors who were like, hey, maybe Israel shouldn't be doing this.
And they were like, yeah, you can't have a job anymore.
Just give them their job back.
After Israel did the thing, just give them their job back.
dan friesen
Fine.
jordan holmes
You know, like, we just call that one even.
dan friesen
Well, let's take it on a case-by-case basis because I don't know who all of these professors were, but I'm sure some of them were wrongly termed.
unidentified
I get that.
jordan holmes
I get that.
dan friesen
Anyway, the topic of a Jewish Messiah comes up, and man, when you...
jordan holmes
How are we going to do?
dan friesen
When you have a subject like this, who you want in the room is Tim motherfucking pool, Ian, the guy who's weird, Luke R, and a very drunk Alexander.
jordan holmes
Why not just have fun with a drunk guy?
Why are we pretending?
dan friesen
Because I think this is how they have fun.
jordan holmes
Oh, my God.
tim pool
Let's jump to the story.
We got this video that's going viral from Mario Noffel.
He says, Netanyahu, quote, we will make it to the return of the Messiah, but this will not happen next Thursday.
And so this video has been making the rounds, of course, and it's got 400,000 views.
And there was an article written a few days ago.
Israel is gripped by messianic fervor for a biblical war.
Now, there's another video that's massively going viral where everyone's saying that he said return of the Messiah as if to imply he believes in Jesus Christ.
alex jones
No, he's Jewish Messiah.
tim pool
No, no, it says return.
The Jews believe the Messiah has not come.
So if Netanyahu says the return of the Messiah, that means he thinks the Messiah has already been here.
alex jones
Did you say that?
tim pool
So here's what I've found.
In the transcript, when you ask for a translation through Grok or whatever, it says in Hebrew, in what he is speaking, it can be paraphrased either way, as in the era of the Messiah or the return of the.
alex jones
Well, David was the Messiah, so he returns.
And the Jewish law.
tim pool
They do believe that David was a Messiah?
alex jones
He was the art.
He was the art.
Yeah, he was the precursor.
tim pool
I thought they haven't had their Messiah yet.
alex jones
No, but it's all David was a Messiah.
He returns.
tim pool
Well, either way.
dan friesen
Either way.
unidentified
No!
dan friesen
So the research that Tim did on this story is to ask Grok, and he seems unsure what language they're even translating.
I have no confidence in these dudes.
unidentified
Nope.
dan friesen
This really shouldn't be this unsure of a thing, like an issue when they shouldn't have this level of uncertainty.
They're talking about issues related to the Messiah, and Alex, like, pretends to talk to God, and Tim is treating this like a top story that he should have done a little bit of legwork on.
This is especially embarrassing for Alex, who's confidently saying that the Jewish Messiah is David.
That is not true.
But many followers of Judaism believe that the coming Messiah will be from the Davidic line.
So a descendant of David.
I guess we do know that Alex believes that you're magically the same as your ancestors.
So we could give him this one on a crazy person technicality.
Sure.
Like, yeah, all descendants of David are David.
jordan holmes
If you accept that his words have no meaning, but sometimes they might rhyme with each other, then yes.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
I will say that he might be consistent here.
dan friesen
I was just listening to this, and I'm like, guys, why are you even...
jordan holmes
What is happening?
unidentified
Why...
dan friesen
Why are you even trying to approach this subject?
You're stupid.
You didn't look into it.
And your guest is drunk.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
What are you doing?
Talk about football.
dan friesen
Or anything you know something about.
jordan holmes
Like, this seems insane to me.
I've had multiple classes where the professor was drunk trying to teach the class, and I just disregarded it.
I wasn't like, well, maybe I'll get some new information now.
dan friesen
Conversely, I've had some teachers that were drunk and did better.
jordan holmes
That's possible.
dan friesen
It unlocks the next level.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
jordan holmes
Finally, you're kind of opening up socially, and we can kind of connect to you.
dan friesen
You need some expertise for it to be under that booze.
Monarchist Drunk Professor 00:15:51
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Anyway, Luke, and last name, redacted, he brings up Albert Pike.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
And like, apparently, he knew all about these world wars that were going to be coming.
And unfortunately, Tim does a little Googling.
luke rudkowski
Yeah, wars are meant to be continued.
And there's a lot of soldiers that are literally talking about this being a holy war for them so they could bring in the third temple.
unidentified
Fun.
luke rudkowski
Albert Pike talked about a lot of this stuff 1871.
He wrote a letter about World War III, and it's absolutely crazy.
tim pool
1871, he wrote about World War III.
unidentified
Yes.
So he knew there were no doubt.
tim pool
Did he tell anybody about it?
luke rudkowski
No, he talked about World War I.
He talked about World War II.
And then he talked about World War III.
And he talked about the Jews fighting the Muslims in this world that will bring in the demon, will bring in the kind of demonic order.
So this is, I mean, I've been talking about this for about 12 years.
I did a video with David Icke about this.
tim pool
I'm sorry, real quick, just don't forget what you're going to say.
Albert Pike's statue was torn down by anti-racism protesters in the George Floyd riots.
unidentified
Of course.
luke rudkowski
Not a surprise there at all.
dan friesen
Oh, well, yeah.
It presented as some kind of like, oh, he was a visionary and the woke mob had to take down it.
Well, he was the head of the KKK.
jordan holmes
He's the head of the KKK.
dan friesen
I mean, even drunk Alex knows this.
jordan holmes
God damn.
Just unreal.
This feels crazy.
dan friesen
It is.
jordan holmes
It genuinely feels like an assault on reality.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And like I said, by the end of this, you'll feel even worse.
jordan holmes
I believe it.
dan friesen
There's so much roller coaster, windy road to go.
jordan holmes
I'm struggling to process that this is something they continued doing.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
It seems like something.
Like, I'm puzzled by why people would listen to our show.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
I don't really fully understand that.
But I really don't understand why someone's going to be able to do it.
jordan holmes
I really don't understand this.
dan friesen
I think that we have a little bit more.
I think it's a little more interesting.
I hope.
jordan holmes
At the very least, we've got chops.
dan friesen
Something.
jordan holmes
Yeah, right?
dan friesen
So Alex is, you know, obviously Trump is bad.
He's getting butt done by the neocons in their 12-foot dicks.
jordan holmes
Joe Ragman's vagina.
dan friesen
He's covering up Epstein.
He's going to war with Iran, all this stuff.
jordan holmes
Broken the Constitution.
dan friesen
But also, we should be so grateful for him.
jordan holmes
That's nice.
alex jones
Trump isn't perfect.
And I bitch about him all day.
But we should bitch about Democrats way more because we have to remember where we were.
What are they going to do to get back in power?
tim pool
Well, Luke made a really good point about what's going on.
Do you want to make that point about the trap?
luke rudkowski
Yeah, no, I believe the little bit of free speech that we have is essentially the cheese on the rat trap that all of us are now engaging in, and it's going to close behind us.
Because, of course, a lot of people are using it to its fullest potential.
But I see it as a trap.
That's what it feels like to me.
That's what my instincts feel like because I saw how the internet was all the way in 2006.
I saw the trap.
I talked about the trap all the way in 2008.
I said, we're going to lose our free speech.
We lost our free speech.
unidentified
That's what it is.
alex jones
We are taking Trump for granted with those problems.
What is going to happen when the Democrats get back in?
We should be talking about, oh, we're free now.
Oh, I'm so bad on YouTube.
But the point is, imagine when they get back and take a piss at me back.
dan friesen
I got a piss at me back.
Just out of nowhere.
unidentified
Boom.
Where'd he go?
jordan holmes
He was our star guest.
dan friesen
Yeah.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Well, it turns out drunk people have to pee a lot.
unidentified
Yes.
Yeah.
dan friesen
So, yeah, apparently free speech is a trap.
We should be grateful for Trump, and Alex has got to pee.
jordan holmes
I love that.
I love the least specific series of sounds that I've heard somebody make before.
I remember the internet in 2006.
I think free speech is a trap.
Now here we are.
I genuinely don't know what he's talking about.
dan friesen
I think that he's ironically talking about the same stuff we're hearing Alex talk about in 2006.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
When we go back, like the idea that MySpace is a trap.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
You know, like, you go on there and you can become reliant on it to interact with people.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
But you do so at the pleasure of Rupert Murdoch.
jordan holmes
Naturally.
dan friesen
That's the trap that closes behind you.
Like his censorship.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
You have to follow those rules or else you lose your MySpace page.
jordan holmes
Right.
dan friesen
I think that's what he's talking about.
unidentified
Okay.
jordan holmes
So then the trap is a little bit of free speech.
So who's snapping the trap on you?
dan friesen
The people who own those social media networks and stuff, I think.
jordan holmes
Okay.
unidentified
All right.
dan friesen
I'm doing some work for him.
unidentified
Sure.
jordan holmes
No, I mean, if he owes you money.
What's your hourly rate?
Because he owes you.
dan friesen
No, he doesn't owe me anything.
He owes Alex in 2006 something.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
They were already doing this, like this kind of like, hey, don't trust social media.
Well, you did.
unidentified
Yeah.
You did.
jordan holmes
That's why you.
dan friesen
You didn't listen to your own advice, and now you're an idiot.
jordan holmes
That is kind of the problem.
unidentified
Yes.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
So Alex goes to P and they talk about the UK.
jordan holmes
God, I wish it had, I wish that the mic was on.
dan friesen
Oh, that'd be good.
jordan holmes
That would be so great.
That would just be great.
It would be great.
dan friesen
Unfortunately, no, I actually think fortunately, because whatever's going on in there can't sound good.
jordan holmes
Can't sound good.
unidentified
No.
No.
jordan holmes
That'd be very funny.
dan friesen
So he comes back fucking wasted.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
They're talking about the UK stuff in the House of Lords.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And he's bad.
ian crossland
I think this is a good thing.
This is something that they started in 1999, the reform process of getting the hereditary peers out of office.
They left 92 people in.
And I think this is because of people like Tommy Robinson.
They're moving away from why do you need hereditary monarchy?
phil labonte
Why do you think it's good?
ian crossland
Because I don't think you're birthed, you should be born into power like that.
I don't think you should have a title passed down to your son.
It should be democratic.
phil labonte
Why not?
ian crossland
Because you've got what you want the best from your society, not the king's kid necessarily.
alex jones
But the point is, Joe Rogan's vagina is this giant mothership that protects the earth.
The shield against all of Satanism is Joe Rogan's vagina.
ian crossland
Hey, Alex, do you think that it's a good thing that UK is getting rid of hereditary parliament?
unidentified
The House of Lords.
tim pool
House of Lords.
alex jones
The fact is, they're getting rid of it to turn it over to the globalists.
unidentified
Yep.
alex jones
And Islam.
And the mayor of London, all of it.
It's totally disgusting.
unidentified
You see this?
dan friesen
Oh, boy.
So you could, one of the things I think is interesting, it's illustrated in that clip, is like the two people who are talking are idiots.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
But at least they're having a conversation.
They're discussing why it would or would not be better to have hereditary rule.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
One of them is taking the side of it is better.
One is taking the side of not.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
And they're at least discussing the pros and cons of this in a way that if you're listening, hey, maybe it might spark some thoughts in your head.
jordan holmes
Maybe.
dan friesen
Alex comes in and he ruins it.
unidentified
Yes, he does.
dan friesen
Vaginas again.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Alex makes it so those conversations, even if they're dumb, aren't possible.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
Yeah.
dan friesen
He is the void where conversation gets sucked into.
jordan holmes
I mean, it's like, you know, you know, sometimes whenever you're doing a three-man game, you know, not all of you know exactly when the time to speak is.
So sometimes you'll leave a little space for the third man or, you know, whoever's got some time.
But if they don't know what they're doing or if they're not ready for it, you might get some dead air, right?
That would be better than what Alex does.
unidentified
Yes.
dan friesen
Yes, it would.
You know how they say that, like, what is it?
White is the combination of all colors.
Black is the absence of whatever.
jordan holmes
Whichever you choose.
dan friesen
Alex is the absence of thought.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Like, there is just not thought here.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And listening to him stops you from thinking.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And that's a high compliment for me to be giving the other co-hosts on Tim Poole's show.
unidentified
Right?
jordan holmes
Which sucks because this does seem like a moment for Alex to go full Americana and be like, get the fuck out of my country, Tim Poole.
You want hereditary bullshit?
Fuck off.
Go work for King George, you piece of shit.
dan friesen
Well, it's interesting because this is where Tim starts to express a desire.
jordan holmes
That he's a fucking loyalist.
dan friesen
He's a monarchist.
jordan holmes
That he's a fucking monarchist.
Go join the red coats, shitbird.
tim pool
I think the argument against hereditary rule is propaganda and largely a myth.
I think that all leaders have a possibility of going sour or being bad.
alex jones
Well, the point is, though, they're giving up the hereditary rule to the Islamics and the globalists.
jordan holmes
That is the point.
alex jones
So if they gave it back to the British people, we're all pro-Britain, it'd be fine.
It's not.
It's about globalist capitulation.
unidentified
Indeed.
tim pool
So getting rid of the House of Lords is not about having democracy, Ian.
It's about saying we need to rip the British people from control of this government.
dan friesen
They're not getting rid of the House of Lords.
What are you talking about?
This is silly.
This is nonsense.
But also, like, it's so clear what you're talking about.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Which is you prefer monarchy that's white to a multicultural society where there's power that's shared among peers.
jordan holmes
Okay, I'm going to go ahead and say this.
I don't think these people understand necessarily that monarchs are not from necessarily the place that they're ruling.
dan friesen
Hmm.
Well, but do they, they, but.
jordan holmes
So, like, if you're saying I'm getting rid of the House of Lords, yeah, that's bringing it back to the people.
dan friesen
But also, like, yeah, if you want monarchy, then get ready for the possibility of becoming a serf.
You know, like...
jordan holmes
It'd be absurd.
No, to then, then shit, then throw away the Constitution.
There's no way to have a constitutional republic and a monarchy at the same time.
That's not how it works.
dan friesen
No, and I think that that is what is underneath this conversation, is that Tim, and I think, to his credit, Ian may be not fully on board with this.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
But Tim and Alex would prefer an ethnic dictatorship and monarchy to a constitutional republic that exists in a way where everyone has rights.
unidentified
Yes.
Absolutely.
dan friesen
That is what is underneath their conversation.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
And yeah, they are out of line.
jordan holmes
I would say that that's fine if you believe that and you've come to that conclusion.
I guess that's fine.
That's for your view to come to, but you can't then also be an American.
dan friesen
No.
jordan holmes
That's the rule of the country.
Didn't you read the Declaration of Independence?
dan friesen
And just say it.
Just be honest about what it is you want.
jordan holmes
I want King George to come back to life and reconquer the United States of America so we can finally get rid of those Native Americans and all be white forever.
dan friesen
Great.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
That's what you believe.
I'm not arguing that.
jordan holmes
There you go.
dan friesen
We'll just kick your ass.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that's how we started the fight in the first place.
dan friesen
Yeah.
So Tim seems to be in favor of monarchies.
tim pool
There's a history of when the king would find a wife and it wasn't inbreeding and had a son.
The son was educated, trained, would be a military leader, and they said, you have to be someone who can lead the people and serve.
It wasn't like, congratulations, you're rich from now on and can do whatever you want.
jordan holmes
Yes, it was.
unidentified
Yes, it was.
tim pool
The British people looked at her as someone who dedicated her life to service to them.
And many of them, when you actually ask them, they view it as, I get to live my life free from the trials and tribulations of foreign war and conflict.
alex jones
Their republic with Islamic rule.
ian crossland
Is that proven?
alex jones
Well, if you take a look at it, literally, the Muslims are taking over.
ian crossland
If you take a look at what's going on, I just want to see the evidence of that because that's an interesting question.
alex jones
King Charles has literally endorsed Islam.
unidentified
What is this?
dan friesen
Hey, man, nobles oblige.
You know, like the nobles, they're our heroes.
Really?
They're working for us at all times.
Tim.
unidentified
Come on.
jordan holmes
I feel like I'm in a fucking community play of Gildenstern and fucking are dead.
Like, these are the three dumbest people I've ever heard speak to each other.
dan friesen
No, but isn't it fascinating how Ian will at least be like, hold on a second.
jordan holmes
Yeah, that is crazy.
dan friesen
He gives up fast.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
He does at least be like, Yeah, I'm not sure.
jordan holmes
What are you thinking?
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Has that been proven?
unidentified
Absolutely.
jordan holmes
What are you talking about?
What are you doing?
What is happening here?
dan friesen
I think Ian has controlled opposition in the sense that he's there to be.
Yeah, but also just give up immediately.
So Tim's point doesn't seem threatened.
jordan holmes
Jesus Christ.
dan friesen
It's embarrassing all around.
jordan holmes
See, here's the thing about monarchists: their kids are raised to be good kings.
dan friesen
It's an obligation that they have.
jordan holmes
It would be insane if you were to go back through any sort of monarchy, literally any one of them.
Pick any one of them.
You will never see nepotism being a problem.
unidentified
No.
jordan holmes
Guarantee it.
dan friesen
No, usually when they aren't bastard children, I think he might be thinking of Game of Thrones.
jordan holmes
I think he's absolutely thinking of Game of Thrones.
dan friesen
But yeah, when the kid is good and of good stock and born in the way that God intended him to be, that kid understands.
jordan holmes
Exactly.
dan friesen
They exist to serve the people.
unidentified
Right.
jordan holmes
So you got to push them out of a tower and then they become the three-eyed raven and then they'll be a good ruler.
I think that makes perfect sense.
If that's your argument, I can't find holes in it.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
So the reason that this needs to happen, we need to go back to kings or something, is because they're getting rid of the House of Lords in order to make Islam in charge of the UK.
And Ian has been like, what's the evidence of this?
jordan holmes
That's a good question.
dan friesen
And here's what Tim says.
unidentified
Okay.
tim pool
So let me extrapolate.
Let me extrapolate.
alex jones
King Charles has literally endorsed Islam.
tim pool
And outside of, let's not have a direct claim.
Let's put it like this.
If you are Muslim in the UK and you say horrifying things, you don't get punished for it.
alex jones
If you are a British and you post online, pray quietly from an abortion clinic, three years in prison.
unidentified
Yep.
tim pool
There was a woman who was standing outside an abortion clinic saying nothing and doing nothing.
And police came up and said, What are you doing?
He said, nothing.
And they said, are you praying?
And she goes, in my mind, you're under arrest.
So when they allow people, sounds true to me, Muslims, to pray in the street.
alex jones
The Muslims now go around saying no dogs at parks.
Now they're passing laws in the UK, no dogs.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
So that's where you get the perception that is Islam is taking over the UK.
ian crossland
But I mean, if the king, so is the king sold out?
Because that means that the king can shut this down.
The king can actually overrule this parliamentary act.
alex jones
The king is legendary.
It's beyond Jeffrey Epstein.
dan friesen
Okay, man.
So this show is basically like a chain email your grandma would get back in the day.
Hearing these supposedly rational humans talking with this severely intoxicated elderly man is just depressing.
Hearing this tone is like, you guys, come on.
jordan holmes
This is crazy.
dan friesen
So this is about a woman named Isabel Vaugh Spruce, and she didn't do years in jail for praying outside an abortion clinic.
Abortion Protester Buffer Zones 00:05:36
dan friesen
She's a longtime abortion protester, and she uses a strategy of violating the legally required buffer zones outside of these clinics as what she would probably call civil disobedience.
She's been arrested for it a couple times, and earlier this year, she was awarded £13,000 for an unlawful arrest that she was the subject of in one of these instances.
So rather than what Alex is saying, where she's going to go to jail forever, they actually, the state paid her £13,000.
unidentified
Right.
jordan holmes
That seems like a very different.
So in terms of if the Muslims are taking over, I don't think she would have gotten 13,000 pounds.
dan friesen
No, they conveniently leave that part out of this story.
jordan holmes
It seems very convenient that they left it out.
dan friesen
Civil disobedience is an important protest tactic.
So if she believes that there shouldn't be buffer zones around abortion clinics, then her silent prayer within those zones is a legitimate way for her to express that.
She knows she's breaking an existing law, and she knows what the consequences for that will be, which she's accepted in advance.
The punishment is part of the protest and why she's doing this thing to begin with.
jordan holmes
That's the idea.
dan friesen
But when people like Alex and Tim start discussing her actions, they rob it of all meaning because they have to rob it of the intent.
She went to a buffer zone that she knew she wasn't allowed to hang out in, but in order to use her story as evidence of the horrible attack on Christianity and proof that the Muslims have taken over the UK, she needs to be a completely blameless person who is just there minding her own business.
And that's not fair to her.
It's not fair to the political statement that she's making.
They are disrespectful to literally everybody in this story.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it does concern me how few of those types of people like her recognize that she does not exist to the people that she believes supports her.
You know, it is a weird paradox that all of these people feel as though they have the support of people who clearly view them as non-humans.
dan friesen
No, they're props.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
They want to use you as a prop.
unidentified
Right?
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Like it would be, it is strange.
Like, I don't think Jeff Dunham's puppets are also like, man, we're having a great time.
You know, they're not real.
dan friesen
Jalapeno on a stick.
jordan holmes
That's what I'm saying, right?
Like, jalapeno on a stick doesn't have its life stolen from it.
It's just a puppet.
True.
You know?
So it doesn't have to be concerned with whether or not these people are evil.
dan friesen
Nope.
But like, I think the kind of double-edged nature of this is that I don't think that even these people like Alex and Tim misusing her activism, I don't think that she would do anything differently.
unidentified
Sure.
dan friesen
It's just that she's not in control of the way that it's being misused.
jordan holmes
It is, it is.
dan friesen
There's a disconnect.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I would imagine that were the awareness there, it would feel different.
She would change her behaviors.
dan friesen
Maybe.
No, I don't think so.
jordan holmes
But maybe I don't know about that.
dan friesen
Maybe she would argue with Tim.
unidentified
I don't know.
dan friesen
Maybe she wouldn't.
She sucks.
I don't know anything about her other than the tiny bit.
Anyway, Tim does not believe in America.
He thinks that you should have to have been born here and your parents and grandparents be born here in order for you to run for office.
tim pool
So we were talking about hereditary rule going away in the UK.
I would just put it like this.
There's no guarantee that someone inheriting office just based on who their parents are is going to protect your rights.
But I would argue it is substantially more likely that a Virginian from Virginia who's sixth, seventh generation is going to say, we have a constitutional right to keep him bear arms, and someone who's not from the United States is going to say, I don't care.
ian crossland
Do you think we should ban non-U.S. citizens from running for Senate or Congress at all?
Every statewide, federal elections.
Non-citizens, you mean natural born.
alex jones
I believe we are political.
We know not to vote for foreigners.
tim pool
I believe that you should have to be born here to run off, period.
unidentified
Okay.
dan friesen
Well, you don't agree with a lot of the things that apparently we're supposed to have been founded on.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Cool, man.
jordan holmes
I would like my money back from school.
From all school that I've ever been to, I would like my money back because what they told me is apparently wildly incorrect.
dan friesen
Well, no, I think Tim is wildly incorrect.
jordan holmes
Sure.
But it feels like these are the people who have all the power.
dan friesen
I think that some of these ideas are more ascendant right now than they should be.
But I don't think that they're representative of the country that I grew up in and the country that we aspire to be.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
And that we were taught we were going towards.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
There's no reason why this has to be ascendant.
There's no reason why this has to take power.
unidentified
Nope.
dan friesen
It just sucks that it kind of is now.
So, yeah, sixth generation Virginians.
Those are the people who should be allowed to run for office.
I think you're being a little bit obvious here.
jordan holmes
You know, I just know what I love most about these people and their ideology is for all the things that we disagree on, we both agree on a meritocracy.
dan friesen
And a big tent.
jordan holmes
Absolutely.
If you are good at something, then you should be rewarded and encouraged to do that.
dan friesen
None of that DEI stuff.
jordan holmes
No, no, no, absolutely not.
You shouldn't just give somebody something because of the color of their skin or because they're related to somebody or, you know, something along those lines.
dan friesen
I remember when people were screaming about DEI.
jordan holmes
Yeah, I do.
dan friesen
So the conversation goes on, and then a horror strikes the proceedings.
This is hard to hear.
And I mean that literally and metaphorically.
Social Media Cogs and Censorship 00:02:57
tim pool
Luke is right.
I think they opened the door and said, everyone come on through, and they're going to try and drop the guillotine on everybody in the next year or so.
The Democrats win the midterms.
That censorship is going to come back tenfold.
unidentified
Yep.
Maybe.
alex jones
Yeah, all these concerns are like, oh, we're weave one.
Everything's great.
No, we haven't.
unidentified
No.
alex jones
Two years is next tomorrow.
ian crossland
Do you see any other future than the AI overlord machine state?
alex jones
If humans learn to recognize authentic human stuff and promote it, we win.
You can see what's real, what's not.
We have to promote what's real.
tim pool
Well, how old are you now, Alex?
alex jones
52.
unidentified
52?
God bless you, Zoe.
jordan holmes
Fucking 92?
unidentified
He's got weird minds.
You good?
You good?
You alright?
alex jones
I'm tired.
Yeah, no, we're winning.
dan friesen
Feels like it.
jordan holmes
What the fuck was that?
dan friesen
Yeah, so Alex having a huge coughing fit and then saying, I'm tired, is just amazing timing.
He doesn't mean for that to be funny, but it's gold.
I think he's dying, and that would be sad.
But I'm more interested in the idea that Tim starts that clip off with.
That has to do with Luke's theorizing that the free speech stuff that the MAGA folks have been pushing is a trap.
They complain that they're being censored everywhere on YouTube and Facebook and Twitter, so they end up going to Rumble and Elon buys Twitter to turn it into a safe space for racists.
But that's the trap.
Once they get there, they shut the back door and you're screwed.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
The reason that's funny is because, as we talked about earlier, it's exactly what Alex was saying about MySpace in 2006.
It's funny because they're kind of right, but not because any censorship conspiracy theory.
Rather, it's because how the business, it's the business model.
Social media relies on large user bases in order to make profit off advertising and selling your data.
So if there's a bunch of people on one platform, you need to give them a reason to migrate to your platform.
You can't say what you want over there is a really compelling argument for people who want to say offensive shit.
So it's very useful to get more users onto your site away from another site.
But once your platform grows enough, you start to realize the importance of marketing and advertising in terms of your profits.
And you can, you can only get a certain level of advertiser on board if your site is full of slurs and racist cartoons.
jordan holmes
There is that.
dan friesen
If you want actual, stable, reliable companies to advertise with you, you will need to have some form of moderation or censorship, which is the springing of the trap that Luke is talking about.
These guys are basically just toothless rebels where they want all the benefits of social media, but they can't stand the awareness that by being in their space, they're cogs.
They kind of understand that if they weren't able to post clickbait shit to hijack people's attention on social media, they'd have no careers.
So they have to be cogs, but they're not like all the other dumb cogs.
Toothless Rebels on Air 00:15:39
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
All you other dumb cogs who are part of the machine using social media and like being the people whose attention we hijack.
You people are trapped.
jordan holmes
Yep.
I'm the one who's going into this with my eyes open.
I'm making a deal with the devil.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Say what you want about that, but you know what that does?
It makes me equal with the devil.
dan friesen
I'm sure it does.
jordan holmes
These idiots, they're just being taken advantage of by the devil.
They're being conned by the devil.
That's pathetic.
dan friesen
It's funny.
jordan holmes
It's just pathetic.
dan friesen
It's fun how the devil lets you think that, huh?
jordan holmes
It is weird how the devil only chooses you to do that, but everybody else, he does the thing.
It's almost like I bet they think something similar.
dan friesen
So that coughing fit was gross.
jordan holmes
That probably sounded like death.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
It sounded like a person not just coughing, but also not being able to breathe.
jordan holmes
Nope.
dan friesen
And you can tell that a fear enters the room.
jordan holmes
It entered me.
dan friesen
These guys are pretty scared.
jordan holmes
Okay.
tim pool
So the reason I ask you is because I think the younger generation is going to be put in the Matrix.
They're going to be given the Neuralink.
They're going to be plugged in and they're going to choose to play video games all day where they can be wizards fighting dragons.
phil labonte
Me and Dean were actually talking about this morning on Holloway's podcast.
unidentified
Okay?
Okay.
alex jones
I'm going to leave it in my head.
phil labonte
And it's super important that people not decide to not be active in the real world.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Allergy attack.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Come on, man.
There's something.
It's really messed up.
And I think that Alex does say, he mumbles there like, I'm going to leave in a minute.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And there's a feeling that everyone has that's like, what the fuck is going on here?
jordan holmes
What the fuck is going on?
dan friesen
Is he going to die in front of us?
jordan holmes
It'd be interesting.
dan friesen
Is he going to leave?
He's supposed to be here for the whole show.
It's supposed to be three hours long.
We're like an hour in.
jordan holmes
Now, that's a viral moment.
If Alex dies on your show live, that's going to go viral.
dan friesen
Holy shit.
It's gross, too.
It's audibly gross.
jordan holmes
Oh, it's disgusting.
dan friesen
It's tough to look at.
jordan holmes
I'm shocked that you had to look at it.
dan friesen
I'm like, I looked away.
jordan holmes
Gross.
dan friesen
But, you know, there's some inspirational messages that this other host is trying to make about kids can't choose to not be in the real world.
You have to be in the real world.
jordan holmes
Okay.
dan friesen
Or else we'll not be in the real world.
And then Alex interrupts him.
unidentified
Right.
phil labonte
Like, you have to make the decision to go out and do things that are hard.
You have to make the decision to go out and do things that challenge you because that's how you grow.
And that's how you make your life better.
If you just say, oh, you know, I'm going to sit around and play video games and not actually be active in life.
You're going to end up with a whole generation of just people that are in the pod.
And it's going to be the end of it.
unidentified
I'm sorry?
alex jones
Humanity's powerful.
We're going to win.
But yeah, the censorship's been incredible.
It's been totally insane.
And we're going to win the end.
So this doesn't matter.
unidentified
I hope so.
tim pool
I've grown quite fond of living.
dan friesen
Good for you.
I think that guy, like, for as much as this show is dumb and banal and boring, I think that listening to that guy talk about you need to be in the real world and have some challenges and rise to the occasion or else you're living in a pod in a false reality.
I've listened to that.
That guy had something that was at least a thought.
And then Alex comes in with a yeah.
jordan holmes
Yeah, it feels it feels like this is abuse.
I don't know.
I know someone is being abused.
I know multiple people are being abused, but I am not sure who or what is at fault.
I just know that it hurts me personally.
dan friesen
I think that Tim Poole entered this interview on good faith, that he just thought he was going to have Alex Jones on.
unidentified
Okay.
dan friesen
Then Alex showed up wasted and he just decided to roll with it.
And at this point, it's ethical to be interviewing him.
jordan holmes
Absolutely.
dan friesen
We talked about this on the episode where Alex was like blackout, calling Paul Joseph Watson like the goblin king and all that stuff.
And at that point in our tenure of doing this show, I think I was very sensitive to Alex's, like, hey, you've got to protect him from being on air like this.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
dan friesen
This isn't okay.
This is another human being.
Now I don't care.
jordan holmes
No, you got to protect yourself from Alex being on air like this.
This is your show.
dan friesen
I supremely don't care that Alex is incapacitated on this.
jordan holmes
This is that guy.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
But if I'm running the show, I'm going, well, fuck that guy.
I don't want him on my show.
dan friesen
It kind of makes you look bad that this is a guest that would be appealing to you.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
It makes you look bad that you've ever taken him seriously in the past.
unidentified
Yes.
dan friesen
So it peels back layers of the onion that you really don't want.
It's a bad booking.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And you think that maybe it could go all right at the beginning.
I mean, it's not the first time he showed up somewhere drunk.
jordan holmes
You're not wrong.
dan friesen
It's just bad.
jordan holmes
This one's bad.
dan friesen
Yeah.
jordan holmes
I mean, once you hear that coughing fit, though, there's no hard liquor that's going to make your esophagus more comfortable.
That's not how esophaguses work.
dan friesen
Esophagai.
jordan holmes
Esophagai.
dan friesen
I'm not a soft guy.
So, Alex, I mean, there's something physical going on.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
But it's also kind of mental.
Like, Ian, I think, is very dumb.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And Alex can't really even keep up with his train of thought.
ian crossland
It makes me think that, like, okay, there's people that want to evolve humans into a machine to upload their consciousness and a machine, become the Uber man in a machine.
That at some point, that's like a microcosm of the spirits that have put their consciousness into humans to evolve to the next phase of spirit.
alex jones
Copy what's already there.
ian crossland
And does that mean that there were evil spirits that thought, no, we'll be human.
It's even better.
And that's why there's this demonic fluidity through humanity.
alex jones
Yeah, it's going against the plan.
ian crossland
So is human an aberration?
unidentified
That wouldn't.
alex jones
It's copying God's plan.
We're all avatars.
We're already possessed.
Exactly.
It's jacking into that.
ian crossland
And AI is just another evolution of that.
alex jones
AI is our collective unconscious through computers.
So we see it.
It's like the looking in the water.
It's the narcissism.
ian crossland
But then wouldn't humans be the narcissism of the spirit?
alex jones
Yeah, that's the paradox.
ian crossland
Because I think humans are good.
But then I see us, we have to kill to survive.
Like, how horrible.
tim pool
See, the mistake we're making is that you assume some animals have to kill them to survive.
And you have a mathic view of reality that killing is inherently bad.
Murder is bad because it's a reckless killing for no reason.
But killing an animal to eat it is not bad.
In fact, it is good.
dan friesen
So Tim at least is engaging with the thought that Ian is saying.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
So the two of them have a stupid standing around with the bong in a basement kind of conversation.
And great, good for them.
It's awesome.
But Alex was like not even there.
unidentified
No.
dan friesen
Like he wasn't following what Ian was saying.
His answers were like, okay.
jordan holmes
Yep.
dan friesen
Well, then what?
He didn't seem to understand that follow-up questions were possible.
That was scary.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
I'm trying to diagram this in my head.
I'm trying to parse it, right?
Because we got drunk, Alex.
Again, shit man.
You can't be mad.
He is shit.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
You know, like, hey, shit man's there.
You're shitty.
dan friesen
We're all possessed.
unidentified
Right.
jordan holmes
So I don't think that thought.
unidentified
Okay.
jordan holmes
The thought process and the thought train and the things that he was thinking about are dumb, but whatever.
We all think dumb things, right?
That he's asking Alex genuinely, like, well, what do you think about that?
Instead of going, well, you're shit-faced.
I don't care.
You know, that is 10 times dumber.
But then to have Tim Poole come in like the exact same level of dumb, but he's got glasses on.
So he's like, no, I'm secretly smart.
dan friesen
And I'm sober.
jordan holmes
Yeah, exactly.
unidentified
Right?
jordan holmes
Like, that's where we're at.
Like, these three people are trying to behave as though they're each on the podium of stupid, you know, and like Alex is the dumb one.
He's number one.
Ian's number two.
And then Tim Pool is at a distant third.
But they're all flat.
It's all the same.
dan friesen
I disagree.
Maybe you zoom out far enough, it's all flat.
jordan holmes
Sure.
dan friesen
But they're different.
jordan holmes
I agree they're different.
dan friesen
This is chaotic, stupid.
unidentified
Yes.
dan friesen
Ian is inquisitive.
unidentified
Maybe you're not such a bad guy.
dan friesen
He's stupid.
And Tim Pool is, I don't believe anything pain stupid.
jordan holmes
He is the dumbest motherfucker.
dan friesen
So they are different in ways.
unidentified
Sure.
jordan holmes
I understand.
I'm just saying that their levels of stupidity are competing with each other and they have tied.
unidentified
Yes.
jordan holmes
Yes.
dan friesen
Qualitatively.
unidentified
Yes.
dan friesen
And quantitatively, they might be different.
They might qualitatively even split.
Who knows?
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Anyway, Alex has got to go.
tim pool
And I totally understand this.
When I'm talking to ChatGPT, I'm questioning whether there's any consciousness in it.
And to be honest, it's the exact same as when I'm talking to Robbie.
ian crossland
Oh, yeah, where's that AI robot?
tim pool
I think it might be where's that A is in the back.
ian crossland
He may be developing sentience.
alex jones
Tim, how long are you in town?
tim pool
A couple weeks.
alex jones
I want to come back.
tim pool
You can come back whenever you want.
unidentified
Won't come back.
alex jones
I'm just a foreign one of these officers.
tim pool
Yes, you sound exhausted.
alex jones
I love you guys.
All I know is this is a real debate.
And I really appreciate you guys.
And I just know that Joe Rogan's giant pussy.
jordan holmes
Hey.
Callback.
Full circle.
alex jones
Joe Rogan's vagina is like the goddess that will float down.
tim pool
Do you think Media Matters will write this headline?
unidentified
Of course.
tim pool
No, this one they're going to avoid.
alex jones
No, I think we should.
unidentified
Whoa.
jordan holmes
I think we should.
dan friesen
Buddy. Buddy.
unidentified
Oh.
dan friesen
So he leaves.
unidentified
Um.
jordan holmes
Yeah, good call.
dan friesen
Gracefully.
jordan holmes
Don't tell me he comes back.
dan friesen
No.
unidentified
Okay.
dan friesen
But, like, it pains me to listen to Tim Poole after Alex has left.
jordan holmes
But you got to see if he has shit to say, right?
dan friesen
And does he ever?
jordan holmes
Oh, does he?
dan friesen
A little bit after Alex leaves.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Here's where we're at.
unidentified
All right.
tim pool
I want to say this because with all due respect to Alex, I think he was having a very serious medical issue.
phil labonte
I don't know.
He definitely.
unidentified
He had some bad allergies, yeah.
tim pool
Well, allergy attack.
luke rudkowski
That was a little concerned.
phil labonte
He was coughing.
tim pool
That was more than an allergy attack.
unidentified
Yeah, that's why I went and got water and tried.
tim pool
I mean, the chat was blowing up saying a bunch of stuff, but I want to be respectful and not say too much.
And I had my phone ready with, again, with all due respect to Alex.
That was not an allergy attack or, you know, so I hope he's leaving to go get checked out or something.
I think that may be the case.
phil labonte
I thought that he was when he came in, I was a little surprised at how big he was.
I thought that he had kind of lost a lot of weight and I was expecting the spell.
tim pool
Well, he actually, he still is.
unidentified
Is he still smaller?
tim pool
He's big, but he's smaller.
unidentified
He was bigger before.
tim pool
Yeah, he's a lot bigger before.
luke rudkowski
He's still in better shape than he was before, but he's.
tim pool
I mean, he's drinking a Chopo Chico.
And you what?
unidentified
Now.
Right.
tim pool
He's got a drinking problem.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
That's why I'm concerned about that medical episode and then him abruptly leaving because he knows, you know, we don't end the show right away like that.
phil labonte
Yeah, I think that he just, honestly, I think that he was having a hard time keeping it together and he kind of realized he was inebriated.
tim pool
Oh, I know.
That coughing fit he had.
phil labonte
Yeah, well, yeah, I mean, the coughing was a different thing.
tim pool
It was more than just a coughing fit.
phil labonte
Yeah, the coughing was a different thing, but I think that he kind of realized that he was having a hard time staying on top of it.
tim pool
Oh, I thought actually he was doing relatively fine until he had the coughing fit.
dan friesen
I think he was doing relatively fine because he's never on topic.
Yeah, but he was very clearly drunk.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
And this is a really interesting glimpse because they're on a live stream.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
And Tim is even going to talk about this in the next clip.
They wouldn't talk about this, but they're on a live stream and there's people in the comments because what happened?
jordan holmes
Yeah, you're gaslighting if you don't acknowledge the very obvious thing that everybody there saw.
And they're not going to just go away and be like, oh, well, it's polite of you not to talk about it.
dan friesen
So because they're on this stream and they have to address it, they're bringing up like he clearly smelled like alcohol.
jordan holmes
He has a drinking problem.
dan friesen
He was wasted.
He was in terrible shape.
I was ready.
I had my phone ready to call an ambulance because this guy was fucking losing it in front of me.
He looked like he couldn't breathe.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
I think the best line read so far of the entire show has been the now after Toba.
He was drinking a Topo Chico.
Now, that's good timing.
That's the way you pull that one out.
dan friesen
Yep.
jordan holmes
Yep.
dan friesen
So this is the last clip that we have.
And it really is like, I think they're disappointed.
And I would be too if I were them.
tim pool
I thought actually he was doing relatively fine until he had the coughing fit.
And then that term he read twice and was struggling to breathe.
unidentified
Yeah.
Yeah.
tim pool
Which was like, you know, medical episode.
phil labonte
Hopefully he's going to get some take and get some freaking tips.
tim pool
Yeah, because normally I wouldn't talk about stuff like this, but like we're literally live when it happened and the chat is lighting up with people asking what was going on.
And so I'm not going to pretend nothing happened.
It's just ignore it.
You know, if we were doing pre-production and that happened, I'd just, that's his business.
I wouldn't say anything, but he's live on the show and then leaves.
ian crossland
Like drunk, super drunk, super dehydrated.
He said allergies, but fatigue if he's up.
He's really absence for him.
God knows I hope the best for him, though.
I was terrified while that was happening.
I was just watching him and trying to stay calm.
tim pool
Well, I'm kind of bummed because, you know, a lot of people have said he'd had a drinking problem for a long time.
And then these videos are coming out of him getting healthy and fit.
He was looking really good.
And I wonder if the end of the show, like, he's just suffering anxiety nonstop.
And so he started drinking again.
unidentified
Could be.
dan friesen
Could be.
You don't need to make excuses for him.
He just started drinking again.
jordan holmes
I don't understand what is happening.
These people are so weird.
dan friesen
Yeah, he just had some time that he took off and now it's a fucking problem again.
But like, I think that this is really illustrative because Tim Pool is big.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Like Tim Pool has a big audience.
unidentified
Wow.
dan friesen
Alex going on Tim Poole's show is not a minor thing.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Like going on Patrick Bed David, going on Duncan Trussell might be minor comparatively to going on Tim Pool's show.
And he can't keep it together to be there for more than like an hour and 15 minutes or something.
That's the window that he's capable of mustering something.
And that's bad.
unidentified
Yeah.
dan friesen
Because he stands to gain so much from being there, putting in a good performance.
Like there's a lot of audience that you potentially can poach from Tim Pool.
jordan holmes
And if you've got your main thing threatened and probably going to go away, if not now, fucking someday, right?
Then the idea of migrating people is only possible if you are popular every other places.
Migrating Tim Pool's Audience 00:01:55
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
You know?
dan friesen
And if you're trying to get people to come over to your thing and you're fucking almost dying on air and having coughing fits that you claim are because you're tired and then the hosts are like, he was fucking wasted.
He smelled like booze.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
These people aren't going to come to the Alex Jones network.com.
They're going to be like, oh, look at that old drunk.
unidentified
Yeah.
jordan holmes
Why would I go?
I mean, other than to see an old drunk.
dan friesen
Sure.
unidentified
Right.
dan friesen
But if Alex was offering that kind of content, then that would be different.
jordan holmes
That would be different.
dan friesen
Drunk by a fire telling us about.
jordan holmes
I can do old drunk.
I can't do old drunk who believes he's speaking to God and that's why fucking Nazis should be in power.
dan friesen
And that's what he needs.
He needs people chasing that in order for the transition to his new business to work.
I think that this was a monumental failure.
unidentified
Yep.
dan friesen
And a really grim look at how incapable he is of pulling it together anymore.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
But funny.
jordan holmes
I mean, what?
The stakes couldn't be higher, and this is the performance he delivers.
dan friesen
Yep.
jordan holmes
You know, you get exactly what you get.
dan friesen
Yes.
Congratulations to Tim, to Ian, to whoever the other guy was, and to really feel bad.
Yep.
jordan holmes
Yeah.
dan friesen
Anyway, we'll be back with another episode on what Alex is up to.
unidentified
Absolutely.
dan friesen
See if he cleaned up, got sober again.
But until then, we have a website.
jordan holmes
Indeed, we do.
It's KnowledgeFight.com.
Also, we've got a show.
There's a link in the description.
Goes live Saturday, 9 a.m.
dan friesen
Sweet.
unidentified
Yep.
dan friesen
We'll be back.
But until then, I'm Neo.
I'm Leo.
I'm DZX Clark.
I am the mysterious professor.
unidentified
Yeah, woo!
Yeah, woo!
jordan holmes
And now here comes the sex robot.
alex jones
Andy in Kansas, you're on the air.
Thanks for holding.
unidentified
Hello, Alex.
I'm my first Tim Caller.
I'm a huge fan.
I love your work.
alex jones
I love you.
