	Hello and welcome to the podcast of the load seaters for the 21st of October 2024.
	I am joined by Carl and Stelios.
	Hello.
	And today we're going to be talking about Trump's shift at McDonald's, how the world has become very dystopian, and also Stelios is going to talk about how King Arthur has become a gay icon.
	We need to talk about King Arthur.
	Mm-hmm.
	And so there is also an announcement, and that is that it's been 219 years today since the Battle of Trafalgar, and so here is an epox.
	What a great announcement!
	We've got to recognise it.
	Yeah, no, I think so.
	I agree, I agree.
	And so if you wanted to learn a bit more about it, Beau's got an epox about it, and I thought I'd include this...
	Just because I think it's important to venerate these dates, actually.
	I think that I'm going to try more to look at what historic events have gone on and try and recommend things related to them so people can actually learn a bit more and not just be blackpilled by the horrendous things that I've been talking about.
	But something that's definitely not horrendous is Trump working at McDonald's.
	This looks like magic to me.
	So, Trump is Hitler, Mussolini and Stalin, all rolled into one, according to leading Democrats.
	You can see Speaker Mike Johnson here, speaking like, you guys have gone off the reservation, you've really arrived at a point of such ridiculous rhetoric that it's not too surprising that now Trump's on his second or third assassination attempt.
	I can't even keep track of how many it is.
	And what I found really funny about this is that juxtaposed with this, we have what Trump is actually doing.
	It turns out that what Trump is actually doing is working in McDonald's.
	So, for anyone who's wondering, this was a 15-minute shift he did in McDonald's, which proves that he's worked more time in McDonald's than Kamala Harris, which we'll get to in a minute.
	And this is just really funny.
	He posted this on his TikTok, and it's just hilarious.
	I'm looking for a job, and I've always wanted to work at McDonald's, but I never did.
	I'm running against somebody that said she did, but it turned out to be a totally phony story.
	President Trump!
	Well, that's a good-looking group.
	Hello, everybody.
	I'm having a lot of fun here, everybody.
	So, I mean, there's a lot more to it than that.
	This was just the TikTok.
	But, yeah, so Trump had a campaign rally at a place called Feasterville Travots in Pennsylvania, which is, of course, Swing State.
	Now, you've never heard of Feasterville Travots, and I imagine most Americans hadn't heard of it, because it's a small sort of dual town of about 6,500 people.
	It's a really tiny little place.
	It must have really surprised people.
	They go to McDonald's in their small town in America, and then Donald Trump, the former president, is there in the drive-thru window.
	Well, we'll get to that, because this was, of course, a campaign event, so it wasn't just he was there and it was open to the public.
	But it was just really funny and wholesome, and there's loads of footage on Twitter, I'm not going to play a bit of it, but there's loads of footage of him just basically having a good time with this.
	I could do this all day.
	I wouldn't mind this job.
	Thank you.
	I like this show.
	I think I might come back and do it again.
	Thank you.
	Look at that.
	Look at that.
	Thank you, Mr.
	President.
	You made it possible for ordinary people like us to meet you.
	You're not ordinary.
	I mean, thank you so much.
	I can see.
	We pray for you and you are the type of person we want to be the president.
	Thank you very much.
	Thank you so much.
	Thank you very much.
	When you think about it, I guess that's right.
	Thank you very much.
	So, these are Trump supporters.
	But you can see the general atmosphere of the thing.
	It's just really fun, really quite wholesome.
	Not very Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin rolled into one.
	Just kind of what a normal American experience.
	I think that's what the campaign is all about.
	We're American, that's our culture, we're having fun.
	Rather than just being screaming leftists who hate our culture.
	Yeah, very much so.
	You can see outside there's a big rally of people who come to see him.
	So it was all, of course, very stage-managed.
	The people around him, you know, I think they were McDonald's employees, but they're obviously Secret Service there.
	This was all, you know, the McDonald's was closed for the event and stuff like that.
	So it wasn't like Trump just rocked up one day and actually just started working at McDonald's.
	But that's not really what anyone thought, is it?
	Of course.
	So why would you even...
	Say that.
	But yeah, people just filming Trump working for the drive-thru, which is just great.
	It's a great franchise.
	It's a great company.
	And they've been very, very nice.
	And you know, if you look at really what's happening, look at the crowd over there.
	Look how happy everybody is.
	They're happy because they want hope.
	They need hope.
	And that's what we're doing.
	That's what we're going to give.
	What does working the Friar tell you about the people of Pennsylvania?
	Mr. President, you actually have worked at McDonald's now.
	Right so that picture itself just This is American normalcy, right?
	This is the normal experience that Americans have.
	They go to McDonald's, they get their food from the drive-thru, and it's just something they do on their day with their families.
	You know, it's just completely normal, and that's why this resonates.
	This is just a totally normal thing.
	It's funny.
	Oh my god, Donald Trump working at McDonald's.
	Hilarious.
	And the photos are just amazing.
	Like, I don't know how it's possible that you get these kind of...
	I mean, this could be a painting, right?
	But it's Trump at the fryer making some chips, as we would call them in bread.
	If I saw this without the context of...
	You would think that AI generates it.
	Exactly, yeah.
	Because the lighting is surprisingly good.
	I don't understand why it looks so good.
	But they really do.
	And I was like, oh my god, okay...
	They look like staged.
	I mean, literally, there's an account.
	This is the account Trump History, in fact, that does Trump in AI poses throughout history.
	All true, obviously.
	I believe these ones are not AI generated.
	And so it's just like incredible, absolutely incredible stuff.
	I mean, you know, everyone's having a great time with it, as Ben Shapiro's actually managed to make a good joke here.
	But again, it's such a classic looking image that it feels nostalgic to look at it, because it looks like a time that no longer exists in the modern world.
	And yet, here we are.
	I think the genius of this sort of photo op is that it captures that he knows the essence of America, right?
	And it's not that he's just thought, oh, America, go to McDonald's.
	It's that he's also embodied what people want to look at.
	Trump loves McDonald's.
	Yeah, he does.
	He bought those loads of burgers.
	We'll get to that, yeah.
	But I like the fact that he's also quite good at the job.
	Like, he's got a very pleasant manner with the people going through the drive-thru.
	He's obviously quite good at it, in a way.
	McDonald's is an American icon.
	This is the thing that a lot of people, maybe younger people, don't remember.
	I remember when the first McDonald's opened in Russia.
	After the fall of the Berlin Wall in the 90s, the first McDonald's opened in Russia, and you saw pictures of the queue that was miles long, and apparently it cost something like a month's wages for the post-Soviet Russians to buy a Big Mac.
	And they even use the Big Mac Index to calculate the sort of relative purchasing power of people around the world.
	It's still used today.
	It's still used today, yeah.
	And so it's one of those things where it's like, look, that image of the first McDonald's opening in Russia was really when...
	The Cold War was over.
	That was really when it was like, no, America's won this.
	You know, the capitalistic West has won this.
	The Communist world has got to take the giant L on that one.
	And so this...
	Like you say, Trump didn't have a rational thought being like, right, I'm going to puppeteer some...
	No, Trump was just like, that sounds like a good idea.
	I like McDonald's.
	I'm an American.
	This is an American franchise.
	It's classic Americana.
	In fact, it's...
	You could see it as almost the statement of American imperialism.
	The appearance of a McDonald's franchise in a place.
	And so you just get photos like this.
	And this photo just is the photo from it.
	The important thing is it's good fun.
	It's not only good fun, but there's something, there's a sort of spiritual essence to this that is so classically American.
	You know, and I and many other people were pointing out this is very much like Norman Rockwell photos, right?
	These are the sort of pictures he'd paint where it's just people doing things throughout the 20th century, just classic, you know, the Lyman there is a great example.
	It's just people doing things.
	And this fits very much into this, so it's a very positive vibe.
	It's a very positive way of looking at the United States and the kind of people and the culture and the general sort of happiness of the place.
	And Trump himself, I don't think, would be able to cynically do this.
	Like, whenever the Democrats try and do anything like this, it comes off as sort of, Well there was the sort of photo op where Kamala and Tim Walts went to a store and bought Doritos or something and they closed off the shop and all their goons went in and it made it look very artificial.
	Yeah, I mean, this was closed off.
	Trump had his goons in there.
	But this wasn't artificial.
	This is genuinely...
	This is the kind of America that Donald Trump actually loves.
	This is the kind of America that he wants to make sure continues in its existence.
	So this is why it just really looks like one of those sort of...
	Nostalgic Norman Rockwell photos.
	And, incredibly, it lined up perfectly with the merch we'd made.
	Now, I don't know how Rory knew that this was going to be the case.
	I don't know how he knew.
	But Rory had...
	Rory had made this amazing Trump 2024 The Art of the Grill shirt for the Trump campaign, because we won't support it, of course.
	And it just...
	Come on, man!
	Like, how is this possible?
	Like, the memes are just lining up.
	Like, there's some sort of convergence in the heavens.
	The cosmos has aligned to make this real.
	And so, if you want to support us, go get the show.
	It's only going to be there until the election itself, which I'm, at this point, convinced that Trump will win.
	I mean, he's got such a great mandate of heaven.
	I don't think any amount of fortification is going to win them over this time.
	So, I think Trump has definitely got this.
	I really want one of these t-shirts.
	Yeah, I know.
	I'm going to order one of these myself.
	It looks great.
	Anyway, so this has been just a remarkable ride, as Bad Hombre here has summarized in pictures, which is just so good.
	We're watching a genuine epic being played out in front of us.
	So, of course, the first picture is of Trump on trial, and then the mugshot.
	Who did that?
	Picasso?
	Yeah, exactly.
	But I love how Chad Trump looks in the picture.
	But then, of course, we go down to Trump being shot by an attempted assassin.
	Getting RFK on, as well as Tulsi.
	Getting Elon on, which is, again, an adorable picture of Elon being autistic in public.
	To Trump now, like, serving McDonald's French fries.
	And I just want to point out as well, Trump's a massive germaphobe.
	When he was in the video of him getting the French fries, none of the fries touch his fingers at all.
	It's all perfectly into the box.
	That's what you want out of serving the French fries.
	I know.
	Small attention to detail like that, which shows that he's actually concerned.
	And then you've got the sort of Trump essentially symbolically handing America back, right?
	Because again, McDonald's is genuinely a cipher for just Americanism.
	And so, an actual Homeric epic is being written in front of our eyes, I swear to God.
	This was such a good way of summarizing it.
	And McDonald's then put out, they didn't actually put this out, this was internal.
	This is an internal statement, apparently.
	But they obviously knew this was going to get out, and so it was a very tactfully worded message that I think?
	While we've not sought this, it's a testament to how much McDonald's resonates with so many Americans.
	And this is obviously true.
	It is what people think of when they think of American capitalism.
	It's McDonald's.
	Everyone knows this.
	McDonald's does not endorse candidates for elected office, and that remains true in this race of the next president.
	We are not red or blue, we are golden.
	Very smooth.
	They're libertarian, aren't they?
	We are not a political brand.
	We've been proud to hear former President Trump of his love for McDonald's and Vice President Harris' fond memories working under the arches.
	While we and our franchisees don't have records for all positions dating back to the early 80s, what makes 1 in 8 so powerful is the shared experience so many Americans had.
	That's very interesting.
	What they're saying is, well, we've got no record of her working for us.
	So we'll take her word for it.
	But again, very tactful way of saying she's probably lying about that.
	Also, I imagine Donald Trump doing this photo op with McDonald's is going to massively boost their sales.
	I saw loads of people on Twitter this morning saying that they went to McDonald's.
	I went to McDonald's today.
	I'm not ashamed to admit it.
	I didn't.
	Free advertisement.
	That's the point.
	Like, how can they go wrong?
	And this goes to show the kind of normalization of Trump as well.
	Like the other day, Maxim magazine just came out and said, now we're for Trump.
	You get loads of Elons for Trump, loads of people for Trump, loads of rappers, loads of brands are coming out for Trump.
	And this is unthinkable in 2016 or 2020.
	This could never have happened.
	So Trump has successfully managed to completely normalize himself At the same time that the Democrats have managed to toxify themselves, it's like, no, we're offering more of the same, which is just the continual destruction of your nation.
	And Trump's there with a McDonald's prize being like George the Price.
	It's very interesting how, you know, in 2016 they were trying to argue that he was, you know, America's Austrian painter.
	Yeah.
	And now he's all the more endorsed, even though their rhetoric has become more and more extreme, that he's an enemy of democracy, and more and more people are supposedly on board with that.
	He's Mecca Hitler Mussolini Stalin, and he's going to win.
	And he's got endorsements of lots and lots of famous people.
	He's just, you know, at McDonald's, just doing the fries.
	Don't know what the problem is, man.
	Maybe he'll do a Big Mac next time.
	So, yeah, it carries on, and basically they say, look...
	Our core values are our doors are open to everyone.
	So we're not partisan.
	This seems to have been quite a cute thing that everyone's enjoyed.
	And it seems to be that only rabid left-wing partisans are like, I hate this so much.
	And they hate it because, let's be fair, it makes Trump look good.
	It makes him look relatable, but also normal.
	Trump is just a normal fixture of American life.
	And he has been for decades.
	So, honestly, this is just such a huge win.
	And the New York Times did a write-up about this, obviously.
	But what's interesting is in there, they had to admit, yeah, she probably didn't work at McDonald's.
	So McDonald's has got no record of her being there.
	And they say, according to a copy of her resume from 1987, when she was applying for summer jobs at the Alameda County District Attorney's Office, she lists all of her work experience on there, but working at McDonald's is not on there.
	That's not necessarily the smoking gun.
	Not necessarily.
	Because, you know, when I've applied for jobs, I've not put on, like, I worked as a cleaner when I was 16 or something.
	Yeah, but why not?
	That makes you look good.
	If you were 16, you had a job.
	Doing something humble, it speaks to your character.
	But you are right, especially in the 80s.
	It may have been considered too lowbrow, but I guess Trump's changing that.
	But, again, there's just no evidence to suggest that she did work at McDonald's.
	There's no paper trail.
	I'm not surprised.
	I mean, I don't think she worked at McDonald's either, but who cares, right?
	She shouldn't make up lies about it.
	Anyway, so it's interesting how they had to kind of admit, yeah, okay, we can't prove that she worked at McDonald's and blah, blah, blah.
	But the...
	Only, only angle of attack has been not even ridicule.
	It's so weird.
	Like, Trump seems to have crafted a kind of really robust edifice for himself here, and so all they can do is, well, it's a bizarre photo op.
	Is it bizarre, though?
	Because everyone seems to really enjoy it.
	Or for Brian Stout to go, well, I mean, it's carefully staged.
	He wasn't actually working there.
	It's like, really?
	No kidding.
	It was carefully staged in a campaign event.
	Do you think all the assassination attempts had something to do with them carefully staging it, Brian?
	Yeah.
	This is unusual for politicians.
	This exists in a vacuum where no other things have happened.
	Yeah, exactly.
	The customers were selected and screened by the Secret Service.
	No kidding!
	No kidding!
	I wonder why.
	Again, or they could be like, oh, it was stage managed.
	It was stage managed.
	Yes, he's a former president, presidential candidate.
	Everything they do is stage managed, no matter who you are, no matter what side of the aisle you are on.
	That's what a political campaign does, they all do it, and this is the one that Trump chose to do.
	He could have gone to some very high-end store, he could have gone to some very fancy gala or something like that, and in fact he did the other day.
	But Trump is quite happy to go around to McDonald's like a regular person and doesn't pour scorn on them.
	For liking this.
	He personally clearly likes it, and that's the difference between them.
	The connection that he has with normal Americans is genuine, whereas they could never fictionalize it.
	And then they were like, oh, well, Trump is politicizing McDonald's.
	Didn't Kamala do that when she said she worked at McDonald's?
	It's not like, you know, McDonald's...
	Again, it's just such a perennial American institution.
	Well, the thing is that Kamala mentioned it to sort of suggest she had humble beginnings, whereas Trump is elevating working at McDonald's.
	And it's two very different things.
	Trump's deifying it in a way.
	Trump is making McDonald's more elite.
	And also he didn't change his accent.
	Yeah, that's true.
	He didn't fictionalize an accent.
	During the event.
	I mean, you can imagine, go and watch the full footage for yourself.
	He was just Trump, wandering around, being like, oh, everything's brilliant, this is great, I really like this, and it's like, yeah, you probably do.
	But, I mean, oh, it's a disturbing message about whether he'll accept the election result.
	What was the message?
	Should we just go down?
	The message is, will you accept the results of the election?
	Trump's like, if it's a fair election, which...
	It's a perfectly reasonable thing to say.
	Yeah, that's not unreasonable at all.
	And so on MSNBC, they're like, well, there's no logic to his appearance.
	It's like, okay, well, let's just assume there isn't.
	You can't say there's nothing to it.
	No.
	It's sentimental.
	This is why Trump is doing this on Vibes.
	Show the kind of guy he is.
	He's the kind of guy who appreciates the genuine heart of America.
	He loves what it is.
	And he's in its favour.
	Kamala can't do this.
	None of the Democrats can do this.
	They're all completely on a different tangent as to what is actually being offered here.
	Yeah, but there's the obvious question, where does he see any logic in the Democrats' campaign?
	It doesn't even matter.
	It seems to me to be just ultra irrational.
	Well, I don't know.
	I mean, they're just going to be like, yeah, we're going to promote this minority group and that minority group and LGBT and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
	It's like, okay, but why don't you speak to the majority of the country and the people who actually make everything work?
	And Trump does that in a completely unashamed way.
	Like, he's not in any way, like...
	He's not too good for it, by any stretch.
	It's like, hey, he's got giant gold towers, for Christ's sake, you know, but he's not, he's very much sure he's not above it.
	And then this, again, has been a thing they've done for a long time.
	Now, I don't know whether you remember this in 2019.
	I remember this very clearly.
	Because of the result.
	The response from the liberal elite was, oh my god, he is essentially sullying those silver trays with this plebeian fast food.
	Now as you can see Trump there, he's thrilled!
	And this was for various athletic teams who were coming to the White House to meet him.
	It was a basketball team.
	Yeah, I can't remember which teams it was.
	But you can see the players themselves, obviously from humble backgrounds, they came in like, oh brilliant, and just started grabbing all the burgers and pizza and stuff like that.
	They were all happy with it too, and they were just cheering down.
	And it just goes to show that Trump actually does understand his people a lot better than the disconnected liberal elites do.
	He's not above them.
	He embraces this kind of what it is to be an American.
	And McDonald's is very much a part of that.
	Honestly, such a tremendous win for Trump.
	I'm seriously hoping that he just storms it come November.
	Just the optics are so...
	It's like a gulf, isn't it, between cameras and Trumps.
	We've got a load of chats here.
	Yeah, I'm going to have to go through loads of chats quickly.
	Give me a second, because there's so many that have gone down off the bottom of my screen.
	Jamal says, small donation for a great job.
	Well, thanks, man.
	Orange Dumbunk says, Trump seems to be enjoying the entire campaign compared to the last two.
	Yeah, he's definitely taking it in a much more relaxed manner, isn't he?
	But there's a kind of inevitability that seems to underpin it.
	It's like, no, I've got this.
	And that's a random name.
	It says, it's not former president.
	When mum becomes the president of the USA, it's for life.
	That's why Obama is still referred to as President Obama.
	They keep saying former to discredit him.
	Well, okay, that might be like an American thing, but...
	That's just generally how we do it over here, isn't it?
	Like we say, former Prime Minister or something like that.
	Yeah, it's not, for us, it's not a way of like...
	It's a Britism, if that's a word.
	This dragon lady Chris is now a monthly supporter.
	Thanks very much.
	I can't pronounce your name, says, this story has made me really happy.
	Thank you for sharing this.
	Well, it's just great, isn't it?
	You know?
	Bots Neeson says, "Milo said it best yesterday.
	He saw our suffering and took the lion's share of it on himself.
	And it's forever synonymous with our last stand and our last hope.
	Anointed by God, has transcended morality, even presidency.
	America's fate is linked with his.
	He is America.
	Donald Trump has become mythological." I've been saying this for ages, that Donald Trump is an avatar of America.
	And I think he'll win on that alone.
	An orange dumpling again.
	God, imagine!
	That would be so funny.
	She'll put on the accent again as well.
	Yeah, well, OPH UK says, Yeah, exactly.
	Again...
	Trump, like I've said this before, he genuinely takes a kind of Homeric approach to everything.
	Everything in Trump world is just the best.
	It's the best.
	And his enemies are the worst.
	Everything is just magnificent and dialed up and hyped up.
	And it makes Trump's campaign so much more entertaining than anything a British politician could ever achieve.
	Anyway, we'll leave that there.
	Got a bit of a thematic link here, actually.
	Oh, really?
	Okay.
	Oh, yeah.
	But anyway.
	So, recently, Carl did a video, which I really enjoyed, actually.
	Sucking up to the boss.
	Yeah, I know, I know.
	But you were talking about how we're already in a dystopia.
	Yeah.
	And I've noticed...
	Yeah, I recognize this.
	But there are so many good examples of this recently that it is undeniable.
	And I wanted to basically build upon what you were talking about, because I agreed with a lot of what you were saying in this video.
	And the first thing that I saw, I just couldn't believe what I was reading.
	So, here it is.
	Ford files patent to eavesdrop on drivers' conversations.
	So, I'm going to summarise basically what this article says.
	There's technology in these new Ford cars that allows it to listen to conversations between the occupants of the cars, and the software filters for specific keywords and phrases from conversations.
	And so the system learns which adverts annoy or irritate individual people in the car, because it also recognises their faces, based on the user's comments when the ads are presented.
	And, of course, there are in-car cameras as well as microphones, which can sort of harvest data on individuals in the car.
	And this has now been patented by Ford.
	I don't know whether they're actually going to implement it in their products, because, of course...
	However, companies do sometimes patent these things to block rivals from developing similar technologies, which in itself is scary because it means that Ford think this is significant enough that someone else might choose to do it.
	And so if this is on the table, this is possible, this is horrifying.
	Just like, yes, you're going to buy a product, a car, not necessarily that cheap, and it's going to harvest ad data from you to try and target ads and make you spend more money that you wouldn't have otherwise spent.
	I mean, this is something that the company should be paying you for.
	Exactly.
	If they want this information.
	Your car is a snitch and a spy.
	It is.
	Well, it's going to get to the point where you kind of want one to break in and steal your radio, isn't it?
	Yeah.
	This is the most...
	Charitable reading of what we're looking at here.
	Yeah, okay, sure.
	For most people, it'll just be harvesting data, but for some people, maybe it'll be spying on political conversations or something like that.
	It could very much go that way, couldn't it?
	There's absolutely nothing stopping it.
	Imagine cops being in their car and this device listening to the conversations and...
	Yeah, they could just tap in, it would be like that scene in Batman.
	He's got a big screen listening to every phone conversation.
	You made a joke, there's gallows humour, let's go and report you to the...
	So another dystopian thing that's happened is that the Labour government has said it's going to inject fat people if they're unemployed.
	I don't think they're necessarily going to hold them down and say we're going to do this for your own good.
	We're going to reduce your stomach, the size of your stomach.
	I support that aspect of it.
	But why are they doing this?
	Well, the rationale is it's cheaper for the NHS to offer fat people who are unemployed, and supposedly this is if they're so obese they can't actually work, which is ridiculous in and of itself.
	I don't think that's a legitimate reason.
	But it's to save the holy NHS. I know.
	It's funny how we have to reorient our entire society to save something that is a public service.
	Civil liberties?
	No.
	Fat jab.
	The NHS needs it.
	You're costing it too much.
	You know, if there is ever a sort of collapse worldwide, Britain is going to be sort of the cult of the NHS. There are going to be altars where there are collapsed NHS signs that are going to be worshipped.
	Post-apocalyptic NHS gods.
	But also, do they have any track record of success?
	Because I think all this stuff for weight loss are notorious for not working because most people are getting them with the idea that I'm going to take this and I will keep eating the same amount as I do.
	It's going to facilitate lifestyle.
	25 burgers per day.
	I thought the Zenpig one just made you less hungry or something.
	So you don't eat 25 burgers?
	It seems like cheating, though.
	I like being able to make a value judgment on someone based on their waistband.
	I think that's fair enough.
	Just like, okay, well, I'm not going to a buffet with you, I'm afraid.
	So, the funny thing is, as well, that Wes Streeting, the health secretary, said the one thing that he shouldn't have said, which is, weight loss jabs for jobless, not dystopian.
	If you have to come out and say your policy is not dystopian, it's dystopian.
	Don't worry, guys.
	No, it's not dystopian.
	No, hold still.
	Kim Jong-un says, you know, his suppression is not dystopian, it's for your own good.
	So, say you're fat and your compulsory weight loss to get your benefits goes wrong and you go to a hospital, you might come across something like this.
	So this was posted by a Guardian and Washington Post journalist, by the way.
	Stop, please do not enter our hospital if you're feeling unwell.
	LAUGHTER I see.
	Very interesting thing to have in a hospital.
	Or the nurses doing TikTok dances or something.
	Yeah, don't disturb their TikTok dance.
	That's the main thing that they do these days.
	And yes, if you wanted to know a little bit about dystopian technology, my series, I talked about just how dystopian China is.
	So if you're interested in that, they've got their sort of canary in the coal mine for how these sorts of technology is going to be implemented in the West.
	I don't know, they're fat jabbing poor people.
	No, they're not quite on our level yet.
	We're sort of outdoing them, really.
	Yeah, we are, absolutely.
	I mean, that's one of the sort of dystopian things I approve the most of.
	It's kind of amusing, in a weird sort of twisted way.
	Amazing that it's come to this, though, right?
	Like, imagine ten years ago, we're like, right, so the government's going to forcibly jab fat people.
	I think it is voluntary, but it would be funnier if it were forcibly.
	Well, okay, it's voluntary, but we are going to withhold your benefits.
	We're going to take the fat jab, so yeah, voluntary.
	Well, it's a lot cheaper than having, you know, people at the job centre with a burger on a stick just coaxing them to lose weight.
	But there's also, you know, if you're finally back into the job market, you've lost a bit of weight, you've been turned away from the hospital because you're sick.
	And you think, well, I'm going to sit on my fat backside and do something that isn't that intensive, like voice acting, for example.
	Well, you know, any sort of translation job can't be done anymore because AI can now do this.
	This was crazy to me, by the way.
	Hi everyone, Kevin here.
	Today we're going to look at the ultimate PDF editing app, Wondershare's PDFElement 10.
	Hello everyone, Kevin here.
	Today we're going to examine the PDF's last PDF edition, PDF 10 of Wondershare.
	I mean, that was amazing.
	So it clones his voice, moves his lips, yeah, moves his lips for it, and also translates it.
	So it's basically as good as getting a translator.
	And that's just another industry that's going to disappear.
	And here's another dystopian thing I've seen.
	So I'm just going to scroll to the text.
	For anyone who's wondering what an Apple intelligence summary of a breakup text looks like, no longer in relationship, wants belongings from the apartment.
	Which is just wonderfully dark, isn't it?
	So this is of course...
	That's a summary.
	Apple phones now use artificial intelligence to summarize the sort of widget of your text so it doesn't come up as partial.
	You get a gist of what someone's saying to you.
	Oh, right.
	I was looking at this and I don't really understand.
	Okay, yeah, that's horrible.
	It's so cold.
	It's void of any humanness.
	Just imagine one day you're happily going about your life, no longer in relationship, wants belongings from the apartment.
	That text, that just makes it so much worse than it would have otherwise been.
	They could have even put a lot of thought and effort into making it nicely worded so the other person's feelings aren't hurt.
	You lose all of that.
	It is, yes.
	Good bit of reference there.
	So if that doesn't work, of course, you could get replaced by one of Elon Musk's robot army, basically.
	So they're only $30,000 as well, which means that that could be someone's salary for a year.
	And if you're replaced by a robot, then...
	Why do I need to replace them doing household chores?
	Why can't I replace them being podcast hosts?
	Uh-oh.
	Listen, Carl, the AI isn't quite there yet, alright.
	Also, I need to start sponsoring all of these people that are giving AI woke lobotomies so you won't be able to use them.
	Oh, yeah, that's a good point.
	I mean, I would like a robot for house chores because they're boring.
	You've got a wife, right, haven't you?
	Yeah, but...
	So...
	You're not sleeping on the sofa tonight, well done.
	You passed the test.
	You see, Josh.
	My wife would definitely want me to get a robot to do the household chores, though.
	She would definitely want that.
	I don't blame her, to be honest.
	No, I don't either.
	They're tedious, aren't they?
	So, obviously you've been replaced by robots, and for whatever reason, McDonald's has resisted as a bastion of Trumpism, perhaps.
	Sort of regarding human beings as, you know, worthwhile.
	Well, you might be enslaved.
	That's something that could happen.
	There's a remarkable amount of slavery that goes on in the modern world.
	I know.
	I wonder where that's come from.
	I wonder if it has anything to do with our new visitors.
	That's true.
	Another thing that's happened is this.
	And this story I found hilarious, and hardly anyone's talked about it.
	So, this is the single most Italian story I've ever heard.
	So, an Italian minister was having an affair with a lady who had some designer...
	I mean, that is very Italian.
	She had some Ray-Bans with a secret camera in.
	Which she used to film inside Parliament, which is against the law in Italy.
	And then she also used this to try and seemingly blackmail the Italian minister, and he had to resign because of it.
	He was the tourism minister.
	And also, this is her, a bit of an aside, and this is him.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, I feel like he should have known better, but you know.
	He's an Italian man.
	That's true.
	Yeah, we're expecting too much.
	So it's also worth mentioning as well, Lewis Brackpool tweeted about this, that two Harvard undergraduates have combined facial recognition software with Meta's Ray-Ban smart glasses, because I think that must be the ones that she used as well.
	And within minutes of meeting strangers, they'd obtained their addresses, parents' names, and pictures of them, which is just horrifying, isn't it?
	If someone could just look at me and know who I am immediately, know where I live, that to me is terrifying.
	Well, there's always an assumption of a kind of personal sense of control over your own identity, and that removes this from you completely.
	There's an outsourced AI-established identity now, so good luck with that.
	So, obviously, you know, you can't find a job because robots have replaced you.
	You know, you've lost all your weight now.
	No one wants to hang out with you.
	Yeah, no one wants to hang out with you.
	All the politicians that you can put your grievances to have been taken down in affairs.
	And you just think, well, I want some entertainment.
	Well, there's a new thing on the block, and that is using drones to torment homeless people.
	And it's called Bums and Drones.
	LAUGHTER They're just flying over homeless people and annoying them, and they're trying to get them to throw things at them, and this is a whole phenomenon now.
	There's this one.
	I'm not going to stay on this one because they get their backside out, but...
	No, definitely don't look at that one.
	But yeah, just annoying people on the street for their own entertainment, and this was...
	It doesn't seem like you had the fat job, yes.
	But this was on TikTok, and TikTok and YouTube have removed it, but it's still on X, unfortunately.
	I don't approve of tormenting people minding their own business, even if they are homeless.
	Even if they are a burden on the NHS. That's true, yes.
	And yes, this form of entertainment is going to become all the more easy.
	The more homeless people there are and the more drones there are.
	You know, you could potentially tie a hot dog to a drone and fly it over a homeless encampment.
	Or maybe just a little white bag and watch all of the people in Philadelphia move like zombies.
	Endless entertainment.
	But it's bad.
	And don't do that.
	And say he was just promoting it.
	Imagine the possibility.
	Yeah, just imagine how funny this would be, but don't do it.
	You could do this also.
	Obviously not do this, but obviously.
	But, you know, with screaming leftists and activists, they're screaming and you have the drones, you know, moving around and they scream at the drone.
	It's like those videos you see in the Amazon when they see, like, a helicopter fly over and they're throwing, like, spears and arrows.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Well, you could do a sort of drone light display with a picture of Trump or something.
	That's true.
	That's a bit more creative and wholesome, yeah.
	And say you don't want this sort of unsavoury entertainment, you may perhaps want to watch a film.
	Well, Lily Wachowski, of course, of the Wachowski sisters, known for The Matrix, is adapting a dystopian horror about trans people hunting feral men for survival.
	What do you reckon, Stelios?
	I don't exactly understand what this means, but it sounds bad.
	Yeah, it's a terrible premise for a film.
	So this is based on...
	I mean, I'm definitely going to watch it.
	Yeah.
	Hate watch it, perhaps.
	But this is based on the book Manhunt from 2022 by the author Gretchen Felker Martin.
	And who can guess what this author looks like?
	Something like a Wachowski sister.
	Someone like a...
	How did I know?
	But hunting feral men...
	They're going to be MAGA supporters, obviously, so they're going to be...
	Well, do you know the premise of it?
	So, it's a post-apocalyptic world where testosterone turns people into feral zombie-like creatures.
	Feral zombie-like creatures.
	Yeah, me too.
	I always root for the zombies.
	Yeah, but why would these trans people be hunting them?
	They're not hunting them for the testosterone.
	They're hunting them to survive, as in the feral men are evil and...
	They're not hunting them to eat them or something, are they?
	I don't think so.
	Harvest their...
	Harvest their livers or something.
	So...
	No, you can't say that.
	Harvest any other parts of them.
	So, say you sort of have read the Industrial Society and you've given up on technology and...
	Which I have at this point.
	Yeah.
	And you just want to move to the country and raise some chickens.
	Well...
	Not on Starmer's watch.
	Yes.
	Actually, the UK government, as of the 1st of October, it will be a criminal offence to own an unregistered chicken without the authorities knowing about it.
	I have not got my chicken licence.
	LAUGHTER Has Tim Paul commented on this?
	I don't know.
	But it's just ridiculous.
	And there was an excellent meme about it.
	UK citizens, stop illegal immigration.
	The UK government, best I can do is monitor your chickens.
	However, people have fought back, and as Roy Gnashlis has pointed out, people have been registering roast chickens that they bought at supermarkets, and it's crashed the government website.
	Yeah, it's not big, it's not clever, and you should stop sniggering, sorry, I can't help you.
	Yeah, this is terrible.
	Wasting government time is really bad, people, and don't do it, because you'll get in trouble.
	I can't believe you've got registered chickens.
	It's ridiculous, isn't it?
	What's wrong with these people?
	How many chickens are there?
	Do you have a photo ID for each one as well?
	Yeah, exactly.
	But there must be like, well, how many chickens are there in the country?
	Well, we don't know.
	Why don't we know?
	We're the government.
	We should know all of this.
	Get everyone to register their chickens.
	It's like, oh, God.
	But if you have a chicken that gives birth to several other chickens, do you have to instantly...
	Yeah, do you have to register them?
	These are unlicensed chickens.
	You take a picture of each egg and you can apply for chicken welfare, perhaps.
	That's like a gay version of VFM. It is, isn't it?
	And as you can't escape anything, the final thing you can resort to, and Stelius will like this one, so a South Korean professor has invented a toilet that turns excrement into energy and pays people in cryptocurrency.
	What?
	And...
	That's alright.
	What does this even mean?
	I really like this comment.
	I don't have diarrhea, I have a revenue stream.
	Everyone's mocking this, but I currently do this for free.
	If I could get paid in crypto for it.
	Yeah, exactly.
	I think it's a genius idea.
	It is, yeah.
	Worst comes to worst, at least you can harvest some revenue going to the toilet.
	So, you know, those fat surgeries might not actually be as useful as you first thought.
	A brave new world.
	But yes, this is a rather horrifying look at the future of the world.
	I think this is actually a really good idea.
	It is a good idea.
	I found it kind of weirdly wholesome.
	Also, look at how happy he is.
	Look at this smug self-satisfaction.
	You get 5% of every...
	I don't know.
	You became a billionaire somehow.
	I've never thought, though, you know what's wrong with toilets?
	They don't generate me any money.
	I've got to respect the innovation.
	I've got to respect the hustle, man.
	But yes.
	So imagine the kind of food he needs to eat every day to maintain a stable revenue stream.
	This is going to open up new avenues of leftists going, yeah, but there's poo inequality.
	Because some people only go once a day, and some people go twice a day, or something like that.
	Surely it's not about the frequency, it's about the...
	I don't know!
	Isn't it turning it into biomass or something?
	Yeah, it turns it into energy.
	Right, okay.
	Then small people are going to be like, but I don't...
	Yes, tall people make more money.
	Finally I can monetise eating more food.
	This has been a long time coming.
	But anyway, I wanted to point out how ridiculous the world is getting and how dystopias need not necessarily be as they're portrayed in films.
	They can be a bit ridiculous.
	That's a random name says, as a free speech terrorist, such a car would let me straight into jail here in Canada, with all the slurs I say while having road rage.
	Peter says, the problem with the Zempick is that you are effectively starving yourself so you lose fat and muscle.
	A Zempick face has become the way to describe people using it now.
	Yeah, I've noticed that.
	People who've taken it seem gaunt.
	I don't even know how to notice it.
	Is it where they go like that?
	Probably, yeah.
	Yeah Lady Dragon Chris says We have Tomlinson talks We need Josh Jabbers And The Last Russian says You should also look up Drones vs. Hookers And totally show that on stream David Attenborough narrates I don't think we will Thank you, Russian.
	Appreciate that, though.
	Right.
	We need to talk about King Arthur.
	And I come from afar.
	I want to ask here the two of you to enlighten me about King Arthur because I've read some rumors lately about him being a gay icon.
	Obviously you have, yeah.
	I want them to be addressed because I heard some things that...
	First of all, look at this.
	Why is this statue full of holes?
	Well, so the reason for this is that King Arthur is a kind of semi-legendary king of the Britons who was resisting the Saxon invasion of Britain in the 5th century AD, so like 1,500 years ago.
	And because it's during the fall of the Western Roman Empire and the retreat, the withdrawal of the Romans from Britain and then The mystery of the events because they're not properly chronicled.
	We don't really know much factually about King Arthur.
	We've just got the legends.
	And a lot of the legends are from the Middle Ages, like 500 years afterwards.
	So they're not really very factually accurate.
	I mean, the part where King Arthur creates his own empire by conquering the European continent, for example.
	It doesn't seem to have actually happened.
	It's a good story.
	Also, this is the thesis behind the statue.
	There probably was a guy who fills the denotation of what King Arthur is supposed to have been and won the Battle of Baden Hill.
	I think it sounds about right.
	Battle of Baden or something.
	But this statue I've actually been to before, and the castle on the rock in Tintagel itself is amazing.
	I can see why people look at it and think that's mythical, because you see the ruins of a castle on a high-up rock far away from anything.
	You have to take a wooden bridge just to get to it.
	You can see why there's this mystical, mythical aspect to his character, but I imagine when people say he engaged in lots of sword fighting, it wasn't quite what the woke people had in mind.
	And there's nothing sexual about the story and his history?
	No.
	Well, nothing, like, unorthodox.
	Okay.
	I mean, the alliterative death of Arthur is probably the most sort of widely understood version of the King Arthur mythos, in which he basically goes on this conquering crusade across the European continent, and back home, Mordred steals his wife, and back home, Mordred steals his wife, I think it is, Guinevere, and then he has to come back, fight him, he defeats him, but gets wounded in the battle, then is taken to Avalon, where he passes away.
	Are you sure that he steals his wife rather than...
	His boyfriend.
	Yeah, no, I mean, it's not necessarily clear.
	I mean, it just calls her a woman all the way through.
	Stole his Nintendo Switch, yeah.
	Right, so there was an article here by the Daily Mail saying that King Arthur may have been LGBT... Because he once wore women's clothing, says Welsh Council.
	I agree.
	What was the context?
	The context says that the Welsh ruler...
	That there has been a recent LGBTQ plus timeline as part of a work to celebrate...
	Local stories of sexual orientation and gender identity.
	So the myth wasn't about gender identity?
	No.
	Generally, no.
	Not generally.
	Okay, I'll take that box.
	Patriarchal presuppositions of sex and gender.
	That came from Denbighshire County Council that included the folk hero...
	In it because he wore women's clothing.
	So what happened with it?
	Was he doing it for fun?
	Was he doing it at night, alone?
	Wasn't it a disguise?
	It's most likely to have been disguised.
	But the thing is, the King Arthur canon is quite large and over a long period of time.
	So, like with the Robin Hood one, there are lots of different stories from lots of different people.
	I don't remember an example of where King Arthur wore women's clothing, but it's probably to sneak into someone else's castle.
	So it definitely wasn't that he was wearing these clothes, wearing high heels, dancing at night.
	Well, whenever he's been depicted, and all of the mythology has suggested he is a man wearing man's clothes, a knight perhaps.
	Doing man things.
	Yes, exactly.
	But not to other men.
	Referencing the legend, the timeline's first entry said that Arthur had dressed in women's clothes in order to visit a woman in the market town of Ruthen.
	So he was sneaking into somewhere, so he disguised himself, therefore he's queer.
	Yeah, that's exactly, that's the rationale.
	Okay.
	That's the rationale.
	Okay.
	Right, so, and they say, but...
	Clearly, King Arthur was a fetishist.
	The ruler was recognized by his rival, I believe that's pronounced Hweil Apko.
	Probably.
	Josh?
	Where are you looking?
	The first line.
	How do you pronounce a Welsh name?
	Hoyer Lapcore?
	I don't know.
	You pronounce it better than I, than myself.
	Who mocked Arthur's injured knee as he danced in women's attire in a bid to get close to a love interest.
	Following his lack of tact, Arthur summoned him to court where he bitterly sentenced him to death.
	Right, and all this comes from a...
	That makes him gay.
	There's nothing...
	Are you sure there's nothing?
	Yeah, I'm pretty sure, yeah.
	There's nothing about it.
	Yeah.
	It says that, despite no definitive mention of Arthur's sexual persuasion, he's still been included.
	Well, I mean, he is married to Guinevere, so, I mean...
	Yeah, but...
	she was a woman, right?
	Okay.
	He was a man.
	Allegedly.
	Usually called heterosexuality.
	The timeline was created as a result of Welsh Government Commission training in LGBTQ +, language and history for local libraries, museums and archives.
	Wales is just the worst for wokeness now.
	It's worse than Scotland at this point.
	It is.
	It genuinely is.
	It's bonkers how woke the Welsh have gone.
	The thing is, the Welsh aren't woke people.
	You speak to an average Welshman.
	He's not like some raging SJW. So how are they allowing this to happen to themselves?
	I think it's just their councils, isn't it?
	Sorry, Stanis.
	No, no, please.
	That was all.
	Yeah, they say that they have a training and they say that this was done to raise awareness and understanding on Wales' diverse population.
	They're talking about...
	Sorry, just pause.
	Okay, imagine you're at the Welsh Council meeting.
	I'm going to speak in English for simplicity's sake.
	Right, we need to raise awareness for Wales' diversity.
	So, oh, okay, Griff, how are we going to do that?
	Well, we could say King Arthur was a homo.
	He wore women's clothes once.
	Doesn't that make him?
	Good enough for me.
	That's all it takes.
	They have the action plan created by the Welsh Government that hopes to tackle inequalities experienced by LGBTQ plus peoples and challenges discrimination.
	Ah, that's good.
	You know what's really going to make them change their minds?
	Yeah, what?
	King Arthur being gay?
	Yeah, he was gay.
	No, that's going to...
	Oh, come on.
	And I have two documents here, two action plans from the Welsh government.
	It says that they want to build an anti-racist Wales.
	Oh, good, yeah.
	Wales not for the Welsh people.
	Let me just show you what they're saying.
	Did they suggest that he only hung around the Lady of the Lake to get the sword, and then that was it?
	Wasn't interested...
	He wasn't interested in the Lady of the Lake in any way.
	Yeah.
	So, I don't know.
	This is amazing, right?
	So, the overarching purple theme, our purpose is to collectively make a significant change to the lives of black, Asian, and minority ethnic people.
	It's your job to, like, look after the Welsh people.
	So, we're going to present Arthur as an LGBTQ icon.
	So, obviously, Arthur took it up the bum.
	So, that's the anti-racist bit, because that's the...
	I was just going to say, everything that is presented in an infographic wheel like that is 100% nonsense, by the way.
	Yeah, it's woke nonsense.
	They love their wheels.
	And they're saying that focus areas of desired actions, your experience of racism as a refugee or asylum seeker, your experience of racism in everyday life, your experience of racism when experiencing service delivery.
	So if the Amazon delivery driver throws slurs at you, it's the council's business.
	Exactly.
	It's the government.
	They make everything their business.
	Your experience in being part of the workplace, your experience in gaining jobs and opportunities, your experience when you lack visible role models in positions of power.
	What happens when all my role models are terrible?
	I don't know, Carl.
	I mean, it's not racism, but it is bad.
	We have yet another action plan, the advancing LGBTQ plus for Wales.
	And let's scroll down to page 9 out of 21.
	I'll show you what they're saying.
	The overarching aims are a strategic and common thread which runs throughout the specific actions that they help to identify the commonalities shared by the actions.
	And what they're saying here is that we will strengthen equality and human rights for LGBTQ plus people.
	We will seek to influence the UK government to do the same.
	We will ensure that the rights of LGBTQ plus people are recognized and mainstream.
	Across the public sector in Wales and they are saying we will help to challenge heteronormative and cis-normative assumptions and will require public bodies to appropriately identify and record these identities at the point of access.
	They're going to create gay lists.
	They're literally going to come to you and say, look, I need a list of all the gays you have working for you.
	No, this isn't Nazism.
	This is the opposite of Nazism.
	I'm sort of disappointed that in all this woolly language they've missed out a very important thing to the Welsh people.
	That's all I'm going to say.
	Right.
	So, before we move on, because I found a tendency that some people don't know.
	I discovered it.
	But before we say this, I have a question to ask you.
	Go on.
	It's a slight tangent, but an important one.
	So, there lived a certain man in Russia long ago.
	He was big and strong in his eyes are flaming glow.
	Was he also gay?
	Who do I have in mind?
	Is that Rasputin?
	Yes.
	So if you want to learn more about the man who led the revolution that topped the regime that Rasputin was affiliated with, check out Lotus Seeders and get a subscription with £5 a month to our website and watch beautiful epochs number 107 on the life of Lenin.
	We've been informed by the Welsh Council he was also gay.
	Lenin, gay.
	Starling, gay.
	Consider this.
	King Arthur, gay.
	Robert, gay.
	My political commentary as a 12-year-old must have been off the charts.
	Yes, literally.
	So, just as little as £5 a month, you can gain a subscription.
	On the side there, Caesar, gay.
	Pompey, gay.
	I mean, just...
	You're saying about Caesar, but you have anticipated something.
	Because, you know, some people called him the Queen of Bithynia.
	Yeah, he actually had, apparently had a gay experience with the King of Bithynia.
	But certainly.
	Right, so there has been, for some reason, there are some people who are particularly interested with King Arthur and they want to present him as gay.
	I don't know what it is about King Arthur.
	So I just put King Arthur gay here on YouTube and I found several videos.
	I'm not going to scroll down because they're really going for it.
	Right, okay.
	Because that series there, the Merlin TV series, I actually watched that one and quite enjoyed it.
	And other than them having...
	Watched all of it.
	Yeah, other than having a rather swarthy Guinevere, they sort of kept to the spirit of the myths with some creative licences.
	The 2004 King Arthur film actually isn't bad either.
	No one in it's gay though.
	But if I scroll down, I see them doing several stuff, and he's turning him...
	No, Samson, no.
	No, no, no.
	But it's on YouTube.
	It is YouTube.
	Anyway, so, apparently, you know what's gay Arturiana?
	No.
	Excuse me?
	You know what's gay Arturiana?
	It's a genre of fiction.
	Oh, of gay King Arthur.
	Oh, okay.
	So I have here, Goodreads, a list of gay Arturiana, which is a retelling of Arthurian legend, but in LGBT. I didn't know this was ever a thing.
	There are more than seven books.
	Hang on, how long is this list, Stelios?
	It's a huge list.
	Really?
	Yeah, it has tens of books.
	King Arthur, but it's all gay.
	There's something about, that's why I'm saying this.
	I'm getting some serious reservations about how people are spending their time here.
	If there are almost a hundred books about King Arthur being gay.
	Suddenly I'm against capitalism.
	That's all it took, was it?
	Did Lenin allow this to be produced?
	What is it about King Arthur that ignites people's imagination and sets them on fire?
	They just want to pull their sword from the stone, you know?
	I mean, there's lots of, like, masculine concerns in King Arthur about loyalty and heroism and empire.
	Maybe that?
	He had a round table with a bunch of hunks around him.
	Yeah, basically.
	So, you see, I have some summaries here, because there's something about it that people get excited with.
	We have Gwen and Art are not in love.
	I had no idea this existed.
	Heartstopper meets a knight's tale in this queer medieval rom-com that you about love, friendship, and being brave enough to change the course of history.
	This is just fan fiction becoming books, isn't it?
	Yeah, this is.
	And you have here Guinevere...
	Touching a lady and Arthur touching a man, who I don't know who that is.
	It says it's a hundred years after, so it's their descendants, but gay.
	We have Tristan and Lancelot, A Tale of Two Nights, which is the queer reimagining of an Arthurian legend.
	Yep.
	Those don't look like English names, either.
	Piracetti and Beeler.
	That sounds Italian and sort of Germanic.
	Some gay foreigners are like, I'm going to make this look gay.
	Before they can sort through their complicated feelings, an unexpected dark force appears, bringing what just might be the end of Camelot.
	Recommended on the Welsh Council.
	Yeah, we have here gay knights and horny heroes, tales from the court of King Arthur.
	I can't believe I must get three stars.
	Yeah, and they say, we really know it's all about the men.
	Ha!
	It says, come, gentle readers, and venture into the world of yore.
	You know this is going to be a cheesy read, because if you scroll up, you can see his name's literally Goda, as in the cheese.
	And we have here, is that King Arthur holding someone?
	It's like King Arthur out of a P.D.D. party.
	It says, come, gentle readers, and every warrior loves a good joust.
	Welcome to the world of gay knights and horny heroes.
	God save the king.
	Yet another thing they've debauched, really.
	They've probably subverted the meaning of slaying as well to the Gen Z definition.
	And I have our last one here to show you.
	Mordred and the King.
	This is the worst axe I have ever seen.
	And they're saying something like, on a hunting trip to the border of Wales, Arthur and his party lose their way and end up in Morgan's realm.
	Visiting her castle, Arthur is glimpsed by young Mordred, who falls instantly, hopelessly in love with him.
	I think Arthur's son?
	Before he can...
	He says, newly empowered by his experience.
	It's all about male empowerment.
	The scope of the betrayal is that he's betrayed by his own son and he kills his own son in battle.
	And he's slain by him.
	I mean, it's meant to be a massive tragedy.
	They're not even bothered to learn the basic premise of the legend.
	Yeah, it's the forbidden love because it says Arthur welcomes him warmly to Camelot and a tender loving relationship soon blossoms between them but there's opposition to their love.
	Stuff like that.
	Yeah, amazing.
	Anyway, so there are several historical figures who are portrayed as LGBTQ. So Caesar, they say bisexual.
	Some called him the Queen of Bithynia.
	Probably not, though.
	Yeah.
	Alejandro Magno, they say queer.
	We've all watched Netflix or not.
	He was Greek, therefore gay.
	Sorry, Stella.
	Sorry, Stella.
	There's yet another thing.
	Source Pink News.
	We have gay and bisexual royals.
	And they have a list here.
	Queen Anne of Great Britain.
	King William II of England.
	To be fair, he was.
	William Lufus.
	He was killed with a red-hot poker up his bum.
	King Richard the Lionheart?
	No reason to think that.
	Are you sure?
	Oh yeah, he had a wife.
	But Pink News says so.
	Richard the Lionheart was a famous womanizer.
	Yeah, definitely not.
	I wonder how many of these people actually have children and wives.
	I know that doesn't necessarily stop someone from dabbling, but it's sort of evidence to the counter, isn't it?
	What's the thing there?
	Yeah, because for the sake of diplomacy, he allied with Philip II of France.
	Yeah, that's...
	Ate every day at the same table, Carl.
	They ate at the same table.
	And they slept at the same bed at night.
	It's like, yeah, but...
	I mean, there was no central heating.
	And at least the beds did not separate them.
	Sharing beds was completely normal.
	This doesn't make them gay.
	King William III of England.
	King Edward II. So it's been a sort of dictatorship of homosexuality, then?
	Queen Elizabeth I of England and Ireland, they say.
	King Richard II. Why would Richard II? Why James I? Sixth, sorry.
	Yeah, I don't...
	Not a common historical interpretation.
	Did he think he had a divine right to the bodies of other people?
	You've got me.
	He had a very different interpretation to the divine right of kings.
	Divine right of two kings, I think it was.
	Sorry.
	Henry VIII! Sorry!
	Henry VIII! He was such a misogynist that he must have been gay.
	I just...
	Of all the people to come up on the list...
	Famous for his wives, yeah.
	Henry VIII. Again, massive womaniser.
	Massive womaniser.
	Divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived, isn't it?
	Yeah, that's it, yeah, yeah.
	To be fair, even Pete News realises that this...
	Despite his obvious love of women, yeah...
	Okay, so we have several other figures here.
	To be fair, that last one was French, though.
	We have also the Frederick of Prussia.
	Anyway, they list several people.
	If it lists also Marquis de Lafayette, I don't know.
	Come back, come back.
	Here's from the hero of the American and French Revolutions.
	Bisexual.
	That's the important part.
	Also, I've heard several people say that King Arthur didn't exist, several historians and also...
	Yeah, so why would they do this?
	Because Pennywise is a gay ally, that's why.
	They need everything to just be pro-gay.
	I think at this point we know that when we're dealing with governments who are just having all these plans and when they're saying that they weren't going to play identity politics, And they want to boost and empower people by just having people in positions of power, whether in history or in positions of power in institutions.
	We're most probably talking nonsense.
	Quite probably Morgan Le Fay is a man because 'let' is used in French to refer to masculine things Checkmate, right-oys.
	I'd rather pay to read some fanfiction about Arthur being wooed by the Lady of the Lake than try to be convinced that he's gay.
	There's no reason to...
	He dressed up someone to sneak into something to talk to a woman.
	So, yeah, okay, that seems like a heterosexual thing to do.
	To be fair, most of the matter of Britain, including the Arthur cycle, is written in French, therefore it's gay by definition.
	good point nothing screams thousand year old dynasty like every royal being secretly gay this is what porn brain does to you yeah this is just total porn brain nothing but it's true Right, do we have any video comments, Samson?
	We do.
	Right, I'm going to get to the written comments when we're at it.
	I'll read a written comment while we're waiting if you want.
	Oh, no, here we are.
	I think.
	Nemesis is a fascinating tale of man breaking out from the solar system to the nearest accessible star and what ramifications that would have for those left behind.
	Asimov teases apart the problem and analyses it from several angles.
	What problems face those setting out and what opportunities may reward them?
	Will they want to make a clean break from Earth?
	How will they deal with setting up a fresh civilization and giving it the strongest chance of survival?
	It's a compelling story that provides interesting insight into exploration and colonization.
	Thanks, Alex.
	I've heard so many good things about Asimov's writing.
	Oh, yeah.
	I've never actually read any myself.
	There's no reason not to.
	Have either of you read any?
	Yeah, I've read some.
	I've read some of the Foundation series when I was like 14, 15.
	Good stuff?
	Yeah, yeah.
	To be honest with you, it was a bit...
	Big in scope for me.
	I read Dune when I was like 13 or 14 as well and I didn't understand it really.
	It was the same with Asimov.
	I should really go back to it.
	I've read Dune and I like science fiction especially in movies but when it comes to literature I'm more of a medievalist and I like fantasy fiction and Lord of the Rings.
	That's what Tolkien does to you, isn't it?
	Yeah.
	There are a number of various memes that I could share of it.
	There are some much worse ones.
	laughs I enjoyed that.
	The final boss.
	Yeah, it was just mad.
	Imagine that guy's day.
	It made me laugh how many of the edits were of that Concord game.
	So basically Sony put 400 million into a game and took it down after like a week.
	and she does look surprisingly like one of the characters in it.
	Where are they?
	Just get yourself the remastered version.
	The geometry is identical to the original game so you can do the cool switching feature.
	It comes with customisable costumes once you've finished the game.
	Silk bathrobe.
	My favourite.
	And who remembers this sound?
	I do like how you can switch on the fly between the graphics.
	That's a really good addition for a remaster.
	I wish they had that in the Dark Souls 1 remastered.
	I actually got the Diablo 2 remastered the other day, and you can switch between the graphics.
	It's actually great, I love it.
	I think Lord of Destruction, the expansion to Diablo 2 is, for me, one of the peak games.
	Oh yeah, it's superb.
	Was Halo the first to do that, where you could switch on the fly?
	I think they remastered Halo 1 and 2.
	I can't remember.
	It's stretching my memory back.
	This is the Japanese McDonald's advert.
	This is the Japanese McDonald's advert.
	I saw a lot of these sorts of memes going around.
	That's the thing, it's just wholesome.
	Okay, that looks like all of it.
	Yeah, thanks.
	Scotty says, I saw the Trump-McDonalds thing on Twitter this morning, and I assumed it was AI-generated.
	A lot of it did look AI-generated.
	That's the thing, like the lights and the poses looked AI-generated.
	But I appreciate it either way.
	I think it's perfect for the entire undertone of this election.
	The Dems have to fake everything to look good, whereas Trump can look good, so it raises questions as to whether or not it was fake.
	Yeah.
	Donald Trump says, Trump may know how to make a burger, but Kamala knows how to handle a footlong.
	You missed their name.
	Donald Trump, a.k.a.
	the commander in beef.
	Sorry, sorry, I was trying to save a bit of time.
	I'm doing a good pun, sorry.
	Bleach Demon says, Trump at McDonald's shows many Americans that he's not mocking them, unlike Kamala and the Dems.
	There is something rustically American about working in a drive-thru.
	Yeah, it's the fact that he does it without any kind of pretensions.
	He's just completely like, because I mean, Donald Trump just doesn't have it in him to be pretentious.
	I think he just owns it, doesn't he?
	Oh, totally.
	Wherever he goes, he's sort of perfectly at ease with his situation.
	Even getting shot at, apparently.
	Yeah, apparently.
	Oh, for Christ.
	Kenneth says, My favourite complaint from the left was that Trump's McDonald's shift was a political stunt.
	Sure.
	So?
	At least Trump does his own stunts.
	Fair point.
	And, yeah, obviously it's a political stunt, because Trump keeps getting shot at.
	Something has to be done about that.
	The proletariat says, I read a news report today that says, Trump managed to fix the McDonald's ice cream machine.
	Literally miraculous.
	The mandate of heaven is with him.
	Yeah, I know.
	They definitely should have had him pour an ice cream.
	Yeah.
	It's such an unusual thing.
	That's got to be like a Babylon Bee.
	There's no way it was working.
	I don't believe them.
	Well, I remember as a kid, I loved McDonald's milkshakes.
	They're still good.
	Yeah, I bet they're still good.
	I haven't had one in years.
	I might go and get one.
	I was literally, as soon as I said it, I might go and get one.
	After the podcast, it sounds like the Swindon one's currently broken.
	Of course it is.
	Henry says, Trump not only elevated McDonald's, he brought back the degree of genuine joy and happiness that's been lost in recent years.
	I know he's wearing the new corporate branded apron and it's a new style restaurant, but I can almost see the 80s and 90s, unabashedly gaudy and kid-oriented decor coming back around him.
	Yeah, that's the thing.
	It was deeply nostalgic to have him like that.
	It's very weird, because obviously it never happened back in the 80s.
	But there was definitely some sort of, you know, blood memory coming back.
	It reminded me of 1950s advertisements, sort of American advertisements, whereby it's sort of a friendly person behind a counter waving or something like that.
	That's exactly what they would have used.
	It was really good.
	I just can't believe how he keeps pulling off these incredible, like, scenes.
	Well, I think one of the things that you can definitely say Trump is a master at is optics and being able to manipulate the media in a way that is favourable to him.
	Yeah, I know.
	Now they're all talking about how Trump's at McDonald's and everyone's like, oh, that's cool.
	I go to McDonald's too.
	It's impossible to make it look bad as well.
	Yeah, yeah.
	The most cynical thing they can say is, well, it was a stunt.
	Duh.
	He's a politician.
	Chad Kuala says, Trump's giving off Gaius Marius energy, a leader not afraid to join in with the menial work of his followers.
	I saw other people posting, oh, this is going to be his Diocletian arc, where he's like, you know, I've had enough of being president, I'm just going to go...
	Serve my french fries.
	And my cabbages.
	Yeah, he's going to have trouble with questions.
	Yeah, we need you to save the republic.
	Yes, but look at my french fries.
	George says, if Keir Starmer worked at McDonald's, how would you differentiate him from a self-checkout?
	Because...
	I haven't got a good answer to that.
	Henry says, that Trump picture with the trays of fast food is just the perfect example of the good way some new money people are where they are without pretense and are genuine, whereas a lot of the Democrat, Labour and New Money people are the living embodiment of Hyacinth Bucket, unbelievably snooty and pretentious and pulling up the ladder behind them after either they or their parents have left the working class to become wealthy.
	That's a good point.
	The distinction between new and old money is always really important.
	I think people are aware of it in Europe and not so much in America because it's not as enculturated.
	I think there's a view of social class whereby it's determined by how much money you have rather than how recent you've inherited it because, of course, the older money You've been enculturated in the aristocracy for many generations and therefore you're more likely to have the refined sensibilities of an aristocrat.
	You know, I've noticed that...
	Most people who are old money that I've met have been really, really nice.
	They are.
	Every old money person I've met has been incredibly considerate of other people to the point whereby it's surprising that they're that considerate.
	It's the new money types like Carlos Maza, those sort of types that are just horrific, dysgenic, spiteful mutants.
	I feel like the most new money thing is going to a nice restaurant and snapping your fingers and being rude to the staff, whereas the old money, I've actually worked in some quite expensive restaurants, old money would stack the plates at the end of the table and leave you a nice tip and say, oh that was lovely, thank you very much.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	There's an insecurity in the new money that shows in the way they deal with people who used to be their peers.
	Yeah, well, they feel like they have to lord their status over people when it's completely unnecessary and actually it's counterproductive to being perceived well.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	It's extravagance and luxury that they want to show.
	It comes across as very tacky.
	A lot of old money people don't wear extravagant things.
	I've seen people who are fantastically wealthy wearing cheaper clothes than I was wearing at the time.
	I was quite surprised, but then of course it made sense.
	I can't believe I didn't think of that much.
	That's a good one, yeah.
	Yeah, the picture of him waving out the window is just amazing.
	There's something, again, so Norman Rockwell about it, so like...
	Genuinely, nostalgia being the longing for home, that's a great summary of it.
	The sort of longing for an America that doesn't exist anymore.
	Jimbo says, Trump just 40-fried the election.
	Well done, Jimbo.
	Thomas says, Mecha Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin needs to be your next t-shirt.
	How do you even design that?
	I don't even know what it's going to look like.
	Anyway...
	Hitler's moustache.
	I don't know.
	What would you have?
	They're all recognisable from here.
	The Stalin and Hitler moustaches conflict as well.
	They do, yeah.
	It would be impossible.
	So, Fane Scottie says, Just write a documentary.
	Yeah, just make it marginally more absurd than the reality.
	That's actually how most satire happens.
	By the time it's printed, it'll be just normal.
	It'll just be cultural criticism.
	There you go.
	Chase Bull says, the year is 2077.
	I survive on ethnic bug meat, slop, and Uber Eats Taco Bell to purposefully make me...
	I'm going to post that on Twitter.
	So good!
	I enjoyed that as well.
	So for the mics and cars part, the proletariat says I own an F-150 from 2006.
	No cameras or microphones.
	If I ever have to buy a newer vehicle, the first thing I'll do is attack those devices with a power drill.
	My brother and sister embrace the butler...
	The Butlerian Jihad.
	What does that mean?
	It's from June where they attack the robots, attack the machines, attack AI. I've only watched the film.
	Basically Mormonism.
	Mormon crusade.
	Amish.
	Amish, yeah.
	Amish crusade.
	I was going to say.
	I'm kind of for it.
	I'm totally in favour.
	I think you've just got to be very selective with which technology you choose to engage with.
	You sort of have to have technological etiquette.
	Sounds like fancy city folk talk.
	City folks.
	That's the most insulting thing you've ever said to me.
	That's what the Amish would say.
	Okay, fair enough.
	I'll give them that.
	Omar Awad says, people are already far too comfortable with listening devices like Alexa.
	What is really concerning is if they start implementing such technology in public transport, if they aren't already, something tells me the government will have no such concerns over privacy.
	That is true.
	It's funny how privacy concerns basically disappear when the government wants to do something.
	Not sure which is...
	People play along with it.
	That's the very disconcerting...
	I tell you what I really hate is I've got nothing to hide.
	It's just like, yeah, well, okay then.
	I could say, you know, if I were naked, I have nothing to hide, but it doesn't mean I'm going to walk around naked, does it?
	Yeah, but if I've got nothing to hide, you've got no reason to look in the first place then?
	That's true, yeah.
	Why are you even looking?
	Not sure which is worse, Ford's ability to spy on you, or BMW's microtransactions to use features in your car.
	Yeah, that...
	Really?
	I mean...
	Yeah, yeah.
	You, like, pay to unlock stuff.
	Which is ridiculous.
	I hate the modern world so much.
	The thing is, there's probably a rational reason for it, in that it's cheaper for them to manufacture everything the same, and not add the options afterwards, and you pay to unlock the options, but it's...
	That's not my problem, I'm not having microtransactions in my car.
	No, I agree, I'm not justifying it, but it's just frustrating, isn't it?
	I know, yeah.
	So, Justin B says, I'm glad to be sticking with my 17-year-old car, I don't have all these modern conveniences.
	Fair enough.
	Chad Kuala says, as soon as your car will have a small printer installed that will print you a fine every time you violate a verbal morality statute.
	That's very Orwellian.
	And on the fat stuff, Henry Ashman says, jabbing fat people to get healthier is just ridiculous because this change is forced upon them rather than a choice they've made.
	None of the self-control and discipline is built up, so the second they come off the jabs they'll balloon up again.
	That is true.
	You can't really cut corners with that sort of thing.
	You've got to change your behaviour.
	And also, as well, it's not just your physical weight that's unhealthy.
	There are so many other parts of you that will continue to be unhealthy.
	Like, your gut biome will still be unhealthy.
	Your organs will still have strain.
	You can't just undo that by becoming thinner.
	I'll tell you, one of the things I noticed when I was doing the keto diet, I'm not on it at the moment, by the way, is...
	How much more energy I found myself having by just cutting out sugar from my diet.
	I was bouncing everywhere.
	I didn't even think about it.
	Yeah, sugar's incredibly bad for you.
	I have a really low sugar diet, and when I have sugar, it actually brings me out in cold sweats.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	Like I'm a junkie or something.
	Yeah, no, I accidentally drank.
	It was during the COVID lockdown, about three months into my diet.
	I've been really, really firm on it.
	I went to the local shop and thought I got myself a Coke Zero, but I got the wrong one.
	And so walking out, I like glugged half of it because it was a really hot day.
	And then I was literally sweating and feeling dizzy because I'd consumed like half a bottle of Coke.
	And I was like, Christ, this is a drug.
	People don't realise it's sort of almost psychoactive in a way, isn't it?
	But also a lot of the stuff we're eating outside, even if they're not desserts, they have sugar or artificial sweeteners.
	Even bread has sugar in, which I don't understand.
	I don't want sweet bread.
	I want savoury bread.
	I want it to have salt in, not sugar.
	Thomas Howell says, just put all job centres on the highest floor of all buildings and remove the lifts.
	I like that idea.
	Yeah, but then they'll be like, what about the disabled people?
	I suppose it is technically for people who are so fat that they can't work as well.
	Lockdown for fatties, two weeks to flatten the curve.
	I like that.
	So for the robot part, Screwtape Laser says, using robots for domestic labour is a trap.
	Pride in the physical outcome of her homemaking labour is one of the few things that can claw a modern woman's sense of worth away from external applications back towards her inner circle.
	Okay, okay, hang on a second.
	Just pause there, right.
	Now, it's not that in the abstract I don't agree with you, yes, but it's just going to be a really hard sell for my wife when she's looking at the state of the house that the kids have trashed, and she'll be like, look, can we get her domestic cleaner?
	I'm like, no, darling, this is what gives you a sense of self-worth.
	Help me!
	Yeah, I don't think, although I sort of understand where you're coming from, it is a very tough sell, isn't it?
	Actually, no, it's good that you do these chores, because it gives you a sense of self-worth.
	If you like sleeping on the sofa, that's a great way of doing it.
	For the chickens, Furious Dan says, which do you have to license first, the chicken or the egg?
	Well, it's actually the chicken.
	They've answered the question for us.
	Yeah, good point, good point.
	And finally, on the crypto toilet, the proletariat says, the crypto toilet sounds like the right sort of incentive to get India to adopt indoor plumbing.
	It's all coming together, that's all I'm saying.
	I think the crypto toilet's a great idea.
	Indian scammers can finally monetise their diarrhoea.
	Right, Stelios, take us away.
	So, some honourable mentions before I say by the comments of my segment.
	Carl, loving the fade haircut.
	Oh, thanks, I just got a haircut.
	What was it like in the Turkish barber?
	Not been to one myself.
	Well, actually, the guy was Kurdish, and for some reason we started talking about this around Palestine.
	Does he have strong views about that?
	Well, he doesn't like watching Palestinian children getting blown up, which is fair enough.
	If he's a Kurd, does that mean that he might have done a lot more than a short back in sides in his home country?
	I don't know anything about the guy.
	Not maybe that specific guy, but a lot of the people from that area tend to be...
	I mean, it's not beyond the realms of possibility that an Iraqi guy...
	But I don't know anything about the guys.
	Russian Garbage Human.
	I've been in office today and was struggling to hold it together earlier.
	Thank you guys.
	The second and third segment were fantastic.
	Amazing.
	Thank you very much.
	Wagon Survivalist.
	Just want to thank Stelios for all the cool Mr.
	Freeze quotes and fun Lads Hour segment.
	Please do more bad movies Lads Hour.
	It wasn't a bad movie.
	It was a good movie.
	I don't know.
	It was bad, but then it does kind of bring that arc back to being very watchable.
	It was so bad.
	It's actually good.
	Well, very few movies actually make me genuinely belly laugh multiple times.
	Whereas this got me over and over.
	I was just, you know, the bad crag.
	I don't think the Mr.
	Freeze tear turning into a very poor CGI thing and then turning into pixels into the wind with the fake whooshs.
	That will never not make me laugh.
	Exactly.
	It's so cheesy.
	Right.
	Andrew Narog.
	Once again, the left shows that it cannot create anything new, but must pervert things to their ends.
	Everything is about perversion and subversion for the left.
	George Happ.
	Arthur was not gay, but Guinevere was definitely a thought, who led to the downfall of the round table.
	A woman being the cause of the destruction of the kingdom.
	A classic tale from antiquity until now.
	Don't look at me!
	Did she have an affair with Lancelot?
	Surely it's more...
	Yes, in some interpretations of the story.
	In others, she is seduced by Mordred.
	Yeah, it's either Mordred or Morgana, surely, that are the antagonists.
	So, was she responsible for it, or did they do some weird magic?
	Well, she played a part in it.
	Yeah, I mean, she's responsible for her own actions, but, like, Arthur pisses off for, like, a year campaigning on the continent, and so it's like, look, it's kind of a warning, like, if you neglect your home life, then it won't be the same when you return.
	He left her alone for many cold nights.
	We've got a chat here quickly.
	So it says, it was so sweet how he told those people in the car that they were not just ordinary.
	Which is true.
	He was trying to, you know, big them up, make them feel good about themselves.
	I don't think Trump has this kind of hierarchical view.
	That many of the new money aristocrat types do.
	Trump just views, quote, you know, Americans.
	And so he just sees them all as basically being important.
	And this comes through loads in the way he deals with people.
	Well, he's a populist fundamentally, so he chose to run on that platform, ultimately.
	He didn't necessarily know that it would be the winning formula when he first started, and so it seems to be organic to his personality.
	Yeah, I agree.
	Sophie Liv, oh boy, guys, let me tell you about fanfiction.
	At that place, everything is gay.
	Every character is gay.
	You talked about the Merlin TV show.
	Of course, there are thousands of fanfics where Merlin and Arthur from that show are gay for each other.
	So this has an audience, and it's mostly teen girls.
	Why would Tin Girls like to view King Arthur and Merlin getting it on?
	I don't know.
	Why are you gay?
	Donald Trump, aka the commander in beef.
	I was referring to a teenage girl, that's why.
	Don't shoot me.
	So cool.
	Okay.
	The commander in beef.
	I went to Tindagill Castle a few weeks ago and I'm pretty sure I read a sign marking the spot where Sir Lancelot pegged King Arthur.
	Yeah, it's front and centre in Tintagel, you know, the Cornish, they love that sort of thing.
	I'm joking, of course.
	Captain Charlie the Beagle.
	Ah, yes, the pinkwashing of history continues, though here's a point.
	Which is higher up on the hierarchy?
	Pinkwashing history or blackwashing it?
	Blackwashing.
	Blackwashing, easily, yeah.
	Jokes aside, again, the commander in beef.
	Jokes aside, I actually volunteered at Tintagel Castle a few weeks ago and learned that the statue Stelios showed was modeled off of a worker on the island called Dave.
	A statue of Dave, there you go.
	Well, there aren't exactly any good pictures of King Arthur that have been sent down to us from history.
	To be fair, I can imagine there are some people.
	I've been to Cornwall many, many times, you know, growing up in South Devon.
	It's very easy to get there.
	And you do see some people where I'm just like, which peat bog have you been dug out of?
	I lived in Cornwall for a few years.
	It's not that bad.
	I've seen some strange things in Cornwall.
	I went to college in Cornwall.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	I remember seeing, I was driving through a village in rural Cornwall to go camping, and there was a man who had hair covering his face.
	He looked like a werewolf.
	Really?
	And I also, going through Cornwall, I've seen a man who looked like a rodent, like an actual rat man, and also a man that looked like a tree.
	I haven't seen those people.
	I wasn't on any substances when I did that, by the way.
	I was perfectly sober.
	Cornwall's just a strange place.
	Alright, Alf of the betters.
	If a king wearing women's clothes to sneak into a castle is queer, then a commando blocking up his face to go on a night mission is blackface.
	Maybe it's just transracialism.
	Chase Ball?
	Pornography has been a disaster for the human race.
	I'd put large sums of money on the idea that we'd be dealing with precisely none of this LGBT nonsense if pornography wasn't widely available at every turn.
	And Apache Sideburn says, my local library is closing because of lack of funds, but the Welsh government has money for studies into King Arthur being gay.
	Yeah, Wales is lost.
	Please reconquer and build some lovely new castles.
	There's no reason that Wales has to be like this.
	No.
	And on that note, it's time to end the show.
	Yes, hopefully you're not going to be dressing in women's clothing unless you are a woman, in which case I actually support it.
	Same time tomorrow.
	One o'clock.
	Hope you enjoyed.
