Time Text
I'm going to go ahead and get the camera.
I'm going to get the camera.
So I'm looking for the seal Oh, oh, oh
In this video, you're going to see the future.
Hello there, you awakening wonders.
Thank you for joining me on Stay Free with Russell Brand, produced by Gareth Roy, researched by young Putin, who received his nickname when that wasn't such an insensitive thing to call somebody.
We've got a fantastic show for you today.
We're talking to Will Harris.
You may have seen him on on Joe Rogan, or you may have seen him on mainstream media news decrying, denouncing and undermining Bill Gates' centralising agricultural agenda.
It's important, I think, to look at Bill Gates in a context of rational critique rather than hysterical conspiracy.
Don't get me wrong, I love a conspiracy theory, but I like conspiracy facts even more, don't you?
Yeah.
Who is it that writes that comment that's always in the comments like, the idea that Russell Brand is a conspiracy theorist should... It's a bot, isn't it?
It's surely a bot.
It's a bot!
There's bloody bots in there.
What about them bots that say things like, hi, I am Russell, text this number.
Yeah.
That's not me.
It's not your number at all.
I'll put my number in there now.
If you are watching this on Rumble... You'd probably put your bank card in there.
I don't care.
I remember you telling people for years that.
I once did a stand-up special where I used to announce my cash card number, ATM number, because I thought, you've got to get it off me first.
I'd like to see you get past the dukes!
You've got to get past these guys first!
Disregarding the idea of, like, online stuff.
I didn't think about that then.
It wasn't such an issue.
And also, I still don't really understand how any of those kind of things work.
Listen, we've got some great stuff.
So we're talking to Will Harris about, like, centralising agriculture versus decentralised agriculture that empowers farmers and communities.
You may have noticed that there are farm protests all over the world.
In our item, here's the news.
No, here's the effing news.
We break down Donald Trump's speech and look at the phenomena of Trump more broadly.
And this is my main point.
Gonna keep saying this.
There was the bit before Donald Trump, right?
Oh yeah, the glory days.
Who was it then?
It was Obama.
Yeah.
Then it was Trump and everyone's like this is so bad or so good, depending.
Then it was after Trump and now it might be Trump again.
Now if you just take a deep breath.
Did anything really change?
With global finance?
With corporatism?
With the media?
With Big Pharma?
Now I know all you lot that love Trump, you'll be going, he actually did this and this and he stuck it to the man and he drained the swamp and all of that stuff.
And if you feel that, I think that's fantastic.
But I believe in better for you.
I believe it could be better for you.
You could have more power in your life, more freedom to run your community, more individual freedom of expression to be the person that God, oh yeah, God intended you to be.
I'm not afraid to bring up God to Tulsi Gabbard and by Jove!
I'm not afraid to bring up God to you right now, especially not in the midst of the G20 summit.
I'm so glad them 20 got together in Bali to finally iron out the world's problems and if you've reached the point in your life where you think these summits don't do anything, they're pointless, it doesn't matter if you call it COP 27, you've had 26 COPs already, things are getting steadily worse, you've had these G20s and B20s and B52s and Apart from a very nice love shack, I don't see very much has been achieved at all.
It's a little old place where we can get together and meaninglessly chit-chat and where Trudeau can irritate you.
Well Trudeau and Richard get together for certain.
They've got a little bromance going on those two.
Are you Canadian?
Right.
Are you a Quebeci-Canadian?
Right.
You got Trudeau.
You got Trudeau.
Do you know Trudeau?
Do you do judo with Trudeau?
Do you do voodoo?
With Trudeau?
I know you do voodoo with Trudeau.
I know you do.
Trudeau love Rishi Sunak.
He's our one.
We got one as well.
You think we can't get a guy with nice hair and run a country?
We've got one.
We didn't need an election.
They elect him for us.
They get a job at Goldman Sachs.
They run a hedge fund.
They invested in Moderna.
Found it, Madonna, some say.
Profited, perhaps, from that vaccine, and then they can run the country.
What, they're married to a woman whose father runs Infosys, which is one of the partners of W... What do you mean, Conspirator?
You think that there is some sublimated narrative tying all these things together?
Oh, what, what, Klaus Schwab was at the G20 summit.
Stop!
Get your tinfoil hat off and focus on the facts.
What are you going to show us now?
Wasn't the part we discovered earlier where she's seen as one of only four politicians that was able to sign off emergency acts during the pandemic in this country?
Thereby just basically all laws didn't mean nothing to those guys.
You are going to love tomorrow's show because we are talking to Adam Wagner, or Adam Vagner.
Depends how you say things.
And he explained to us that during the pandemic in the UK, unprecedented liabilities were taken with the British people.
And it was pretty much the same all over the world.
Different flavours of tyranny.
Apparently China's version was the worst of it.
Do you know what?
I forgot to ask him and I really wanted to ask him.
You'll love it when you see him in tomorrow's show, Adam Wagner.
The bit about where China, they were putting people's cats in bags.
Yeah.
Because we have a phrase, don't let the cat out of the bag.
We have another phrase, don't put a cat in a bag, because it's cruel.
Yeah.
It's one of my favourite phrases.
Yeah.
I've got 20 cats, I've never put any of them in a bag.
No.
They're all loose in the house.
They come out of a bag.
Originally, don't they?
What do you mean, like that bag, that umbilical bag?
That bag.
You might call it a uteral sack.
Yeah, but that's... Don't put them back in one.
Yeah, that's not, that's not nature.
No.
It's not some sort of scheme, in the bag, out the bag.
No.
Show us these people, I want to know the truth.
If you're watching this on YouTube, we are going to reveal to you some astonishing facts about the nature of power.
We are going to explain to you why you feel the way you feel.
You know you're being lied to.
You know you're not getting the truth off mainstream media.
You'll get it here, though, by Jove.
We'll give you that truth down your knicker.
What's this you're going to show us first of all?
Bromance?
This is the blossom in bromance between these two guys.
Let's have a look at them.
Where's the actual restaurant?
Because they're just in Bali on holiday.
They're just normal guys.
Richie's just lost.
He's looking for his mate.
Where's the holiday?
What's going on?
At least he's not flanked by dozens and dozens of operatives.
There's no operatives there.
I like him.
I don't mean the policies and all that.
I mean what he looks like.
I can't deal with it on the level of that.
I just look at them and I think, nice hair or whatever.
Very nice to see you. You alright?
I'm so happy to see him.
They just bumped into each other.
Even if you're sick and tired of tyranny, even if you're sick and tired of the media
giving you versions of truth that are sort of baffling and diluted,
even if you're sick of Trudeau telling you that he stands for liberty and freedom
while endorsing the bank accounts being frozen of trucker protesters
or even people that donated to those protests, even while admitting that he likes China's model of
dictatorship Like, admires it and aspires to it.
Although Xi, he ain't standing for that stuff, is he?
No, wasn't happy.
Oh, I love that.
Have you seen that moment where G sort of shows performative power, what real power looks like?
Don't play with G. Like, he is the OG, if you ask me.
Isn't he?
He is the OG, because the way he stands up... The OG.
OG, let's pronounce it like that.
He's the OG, I see.
The way I see it, he the OG.
Like, that's the difference between their power and our power.
Now, listen, if you're watching us on YouTube, we're only going to be here with you for a few seconds.
All you've got to do, though, is go over to Rumble, watch us on Stay Free with Russell Brand.
It's okay over there.
Some of the comments are crazy.
You might want to join us in Stay Free AF.
That's our platform on Locals where you can watch.
Look at the people who are doing comments now.
People are saying that's a great cardigan for example.
Friendly fascists are my favourite fascists.
Lisa Marie.
I love Russell Infusia.
Join us over there from YouTube.
We'll see you in a moment.
We're going to reveal the truth, the whole truth.
And just that'll be enough, I would have thought.
See you in a few seconds, guys.
All right, so let's have a look at this bromance unfolding.
Look at how much he's laughing.
How can you deny them the right to this kind of... This is groovy love.
I'm glad we can make this work.
We've got 15, 13 more questions.
Hahaha.
Who do they think wants to see this?
Who do they think is so optimistic about global politics?
Where it's like, oh they're just a couple of guys, couple of guys hanging out.
Although this is what I will say, that if you're willing to look at politics purely from an aesthetic perspective, put aside decency, honour, standing up for the rights of ordinary people, democracy, put that all to one side and just focus on people looking nice.
They look nicer than politicians used to.
Don't you remember?
Like if you're in like our countries, like sort of European dynastic countries like us, All Adelaide is like, so old.
Hello!
Like Neville Chamberlain, or is it younger than these guys?
Hello, I'm Winston Churchill.
I am 40 today.
Like Churchill, looks like a penis.
It was like sort of a wrinkly, not even a hard penis.
He was probably younger than we were.
Your Majesty, I'm 30 years old today.
I was speaking with your late father, who I'm sorry to say has a cluster of skin tags on his perineum.
I saw his kimono blew open like Joe Biden's boy hunter.
The kimono blew open.
And there was a cluster of skin tags in his perineum, and I shaved them down like coral!
I shaved them down!
It was a network of cells, and within each cell there was a larvae.
Alright.
Also, by the way, Putin, you're like this.
If you haven't seen the clip of Hunter Biden on the news, have you seen that, where there's this woman digging him out and going, what's going on?
Would you get these business deals if Joe Biden wasn't your dad?
She's leaning into him and he goes, well, I don't know.
And he uses a phrase that I really like.
You've got to find it.
You've got to find it.
It's even on the Clips Chat if you want to find it.
He goes, I'm not going to just open my kimono!
I'm not going to open my kimono on the news, he says.
Wow.
Like, open my kimono.
It's a really evocative image and it made me, and I think he meant for this to happen, it made me imagine him in a kimono, opening it and showing me his...
Let's call him as Minktovich.
Let's call him as Unmentionables.
So why would you make me imagine that?
I don't know.
Shouldn't, should you?
Let's have a look at the end of this bromance and then Young Poon.
See if you can find it.
It's on the clip chat.
It's good.
Oh, I'll do this.
I mean they're gorgeous.
Yeah.
They are good looking.
Yeah, they're pinups, aren't they?
Pinup politicians, that's what you want.
Yeah, Trudeau's got his collar open, Sunex kept his tie on.
Sunex kept his tie on!
Sunex kept his tie on!
Yeah, look, if you want young Putin, we could watch now Trudeau and Trudeau Zoo, Rishi, Trudeau, Zoom, Zelensky.
I'd like to see that.
They're on a Zoom together now.
It's more of their bromance.
They're ever so cute.
This is how you're supposed to look at politics, just like it's their lovely, handsome people just doing their best.
And maybe that is true on some level, but they are also sort of former Davos acolytes, protégés of Klaus Schwab, pursuing a globalist agenda, both out of either political dynasties, in the case of Trudeau, or the financial system, in the case of Sunak.
I mean, I don't know, you've got to sort of pay some attention to these submerged narratives if you want to know how power truly operates.
Let's have a look.
Is this them zooming Zelensky?
Let's have a look.
Hello Vladimir.
It's Rishi and Justin.
That is not his normal voice.
That isn't his voice, is it?
Hello Vladimir.
He'll stoop to any depths to imitate another race or people, won't he?
Hello Vladimir.
Right, we're going to have a call now and it's actually the Minister of Sudan.
Oh, could you mind if I... No, no, Justin!
Stop doing it!
You don't need to be yourself!
But it's an homage, Justin.
No more homages!
He keeps homaging everyone he meets this Gita.
He says he's lucky he's so good looking so we won't put up with him.
I really wanted you to hear from us as friends.
We absolutely know how difficult yesterday was.
Oh God!
I'm angry now.
Like friends, because they're trying to act like it is friends.
They're trying to act like... We're just some good looking guys running the world.
We've got a beer!
Mad old Uncle Klaus is coming over!
Oh, hello boys.
It's Ugly Naked Guy!
Hello, it's me, Ugly Naked Klaus.
You will live in this flat and you will be happy.
Politics is not friends.
Don't be so deluged in the numb, dumb imagery of a culture that wants you stupid that you see a couple of guys with nice haircuts and think that this is real politics.
Remember when Jeffrey Sachs came on our show and he explained the complexity of the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine and that it's a war many years in the making.
many people say began in 2009, some say 2014 with that coup, and no one is excusing Putin's
egregious invasion of Ukraine or the brutality of war, the suffering of the Ukrainian people
who could be anything other than supportive of those people and their very real struggle.
But the reductivism and simplification of this conflict and the sort of demand that
we just sort of support what amounts to a mainstream narrative is I think a little ridiculous,
particularly when it increasingly seems that the military-industrial complex are interested
in prolonging that war for the most obvious of reasons, financial profit.
And although it seems too implausible to imagine that anyone would actually do that when the potential outcome is a nuclear bloody war, I'm afraid to say that it does seem, from the evidence, that that is what they're doing.
But that shouldn't stop us from enjoying just a couple of guys chatting to Zelensky on the phone.
We really know what it's like, Zelensky!
It was horrific for you and your country.
Rishi and I really wanted to reach out to Rishi.
No one told you war was gonna be that way.
Trump ends Oscars.
To show you we're standing with you and to say we're gonna figure out this step-by-step all together.
Thank you Volodymyr.
Talk to you soon.
We'll be there for you when the bombs start to fall.
But we'll sell you them all!
We'll all be there for you!
Well there you go, the simplification of global politics into a sitcom starring some handsome guys who are jerking on the end of the puppet strings of dear old Klaus Schwab.
Meanwhile, do you want to see General Milley?
I don't like someone being called General Millie.
I don't really.
It's a silly name.
Yeah, I don't really.
Why right now at a time like this when I've got so much on my plate?
Well, we were literally just talking about, they were talking to Zelensky, weren't they, saying that we'll be there for you, Zelensky.
And General Millie, whilst over in Washington, whilst they're all living it up in Bali, all the big guys, the big cheeses in Bali.
Wearing special shirts for Bali.
Hey, we're respecting your culture.
We've got special shirts on.
They clash a bit.
Couldn't you have chosen a better palette?
Can we have a look at that image again, please, Young Putin?
Look, I'm all for respecting Indonesian culture.
I've been on holiday there as a lad.
I loved the place.
It was delightful.
That's a bad colour scheme.
It is, yeah.
That's clashy.
Klaus Schwab's clashing with his own head, and those two are clashing with each other.
Klaus Schwab's chameleoning into his own shirt.
What's the little badge?
I'll tell you what, for the thumbnail, do that badge with a red circle around it and an arrow pointing to it, Young Putin.
They'll bloody well love that.
Oh, that's a thumb now and a half.
So they're there living it up in their shirts.
It's happening right now, Fire Girl 2020.
What's going on?
So this is General Millie.
Do you think he feels a bit girl named, like a boy named Sue?
Yeah, a bit silly.
A bit silly, like a boy named Sue, isn't it?
It's sort of a Johnny Cash song.
Like if you call a boy Sue, he's going to grow up tough because he keeps getting called Sue the whole time.
Oh I see, it might be that.
General Millie.
General Milley!
Listen, although my surname is sort of a girl's name, that don't mean I ain't capable of... So what is General Milley?
Does he work for Lockheed Martin?
What's his game?
What does he want?
Well, he's basically telling us that this war is not yet over.
Let's have a look.
And we, the United States, are determined to continue to support Ukraine with the means to defend themselves for as long as it takes.
But at the end of the day, Ukraine will remain a free and independent country with its territory intact.
So what they're saying is it's going to be a long, long war?
A long, long war, yeah.
And this is what organisations like Stop the War have been saying for a while, that they're keeping this going for as long as possible.
Biden's just asked for $37 billion more and Yeah, you know, we done that after the missiles.
Milli Vanilli, someone is saying here.
And Wild and Sacred says, is he off Star Wars?
Nikki Sixx says Milli Vanilli.
Well done, Nikki Sixx.
Childish joke, but a good one.
Yeah.
And a necessary one.
We've got so much stuff to show people, haven't we?
Gareth's made an important point that after those missiles landed in Poland, £36.5 billion in aid was awarded to Ukraine.
And remember, we're not anti-looking after Ukrainian people.
That's totally good.
Stop the War are generally a positive organisation.
I mean, they've named themselves after Stopping Wars.
Like, what are we mostly about?
Stopping wars.
Should we call ourselves the Stop the War Coalition?
Sure, people will know what we're up to then.
So they're not like, keep wars going, we'll sell more missiles coalition, which is who's running the world.
Are we going to look at Joe Biden over there in Bali?
Oh yeah.
I don't think they should be allowed leisure activities at the G20, B20 summits.
It's meant to be serious.
They're wondering about shows.
Rishi, Sunak and Trudeau are meeting each other as if they're in Malaga, or as if it's spring break.
Hey, fancy running into you here, shall we?
Let's Zoom Zelensky!
Hey, we're out of our minds!
Top cell phone!
Spring break!
Get those tops off.
They're like the magic eye pictures.
Dinosaur come out of Klaus Schwab's chest.
Probably because he's an interdimensional lizard being.
That was just a joke.
Don't go crazy in the chat.
He's probably not an interdimensional lizard being.
Probably.
We don't know for sure.
I don't even know if there are.
Do you know there's no proof if there are interdimensional lizard beings?
We're waiting for that proof and if it's proven that it's true, you'll hear it here on Stay Free With Russell Brand.
Now Joe Biden's having a little golf holiday, isn't he?
What I hope is that Joe Biden is not a superstitious man.
Because you know, like you and me, we're superstitious, right?
Lots of superstitions in a stupid way, but we love serendipity, synchronicity.
You're always looking for signs.
It's a sign!
It's a sign!
Because some part of you is calling out to the sacred.
Some part of you knows that all of human epistemology, that's some total of our knowledge, It's virtually negligible compared to the vastness of all potential knowledge, i.e.
the cosmos is limitless, beyond comprehension, therefore everything we know is a small amount compared to what could be known.
That leaves room for faith and superstition on the good side of things, being in the flow of reality, on the negative side of things, just believing in mad, crazy stuff.
Now, if Joe Biden is a superstitious guy, he's gonna get freaked out by this exchange.
Because, yeah, check it out.
Play it for us, young poots.
Although I very much worry about this guy's biceps.
His biceps are as big as my calves.
Look at this.
Now he's doing something that I do that a bit.
So if you see a quite tough... I'm a butch man.
Yeah, you see a butch man, a butch, tough, macho man, and you think, well, to diffuse this...
I'll homoeroticise it.
Because I don't want to fight.
Like say Zelensky, say what you want about Zelensky.
You might think he's a hero, you might think he's a fraud.
I don't know, I don't care what you think.
I do care, I love you. But like, he's buff, isn't he?
If I saw Zelensky, I'd be like, Hello Zelensky!
That's gay.
Looking good.
I'll be able to take those Russians single-handed, couldn't ya?
Like that.
You know, defuse it.
He'd like that.
I reckon.
Yeah.
I mean, do you reckon he liked getting that Oscar?
I think he felt a bit awkward to start with.
Oh, okay.
I want to take him my British Comedy Award.
Zelensky, I've got this for Poggle.
Shagger of the Year?
I've got this Shagger of the Year Award from... God, it's going to be tough to give this up!
What do I think of all them shags?
Although I do have two others.
I won it three times, baby.
So, like, what I would do to diffuse any potential tensions between me and Zelensky, he was a comedian, now a world leader, hey, just saying, can happen, can happen.
I'd go, oh, you're a buff and chump.
You big silly sausage!
You big silly old bugger!
Like that.
Biden's doing that on that golf course.
Oh, look at you.
Your biceps are like my calves.
Look at that.
What you got down your pouch there?
I can't imagine that Biden's got very big calves.
Yeah, they'd be so thin.
They were spindle calves.
I think I've seen a picture of him falling off a bike because he couldn't get the pedals to go round.
That's not a compliment.
I'm surprised the guy didn't pop him one.
He glanced down at his calves.
Seen them little string beams going down into a flip-flop.
How dare you!
But it turns out that this guy, once he said that, like, oh, your biceps are like my calves.
Look at those guys.
You know, to prove that he's not intimidated by it.
And that's all cool.
That's all cool.
Look at the guy glancing, by the way, now.
Can we see him?
Oh, he's going to kick off.
What's he going to do?
Uh-oh, don't care for, don't criticise that guy's biceps.
He, in a minute, goes, I hope we're on the same side.
Whatever bizarre sport it is, they're participating here in Bali.
I hope we're on the same side.
Well, get ready if you're superstitious, because where is this guy with the biceps from, dog?
There's a man.
I hope we're on the same side.
He's Russian.
Oh, this is awkward!
Russia, well, we're not actually on the same side.
We're not on opposite sides.
I mean, no.
You're having a fight with Ukraine.
It's nothing to do with us.
Listen, I don't know where he got that golf club.
We'll give 37 billion to Russia as well.
Yeah, we're just giving 37 billion around.
Do you have a golf club?
You have a golf club.
Why don't you slog it out amongst yourselves?
Awkward!
Look at who he is.
He's got some real biceps.
Let's just go back to the biceps.
Let's just pretend that we haven't at a G20 summit, which is supposed to be talking about global politics, which is supposed to be talking about how heads of state can come together to openly discuss mutually agreeable solutions that are presumably beneficial to the world populations, and one of those could be stopping Wars that are primarily, it appears at least, in addition to helping Ukrainian people benefit in the military-industrial complex, and even in an innocuous exchange, or whatever mad sport it is they're playing, it comes bubbling to the surface.
The truth comes up, you know?
Maybe they're having a proxy game of golf, maybe.
I'm not going to be joint, we aren't going to be playing golf here against Sergi, but I'm going to be there dosing him up with steroids, helping his golf game.
He's going to get a little coaching.
Tiger, tell him how to help him with his swing!
This is good for training.
Macron getting in at the end.
What did Macron say?
I don't know.
He said something about training.
I don't like Macron.
It was a joke that didn't really land.
I think all of these politicians that are a bit like that, that's what's caused, like when people are complaining about, we've got to stop fascism.
Fascism is everywhere.
It's because of this little mob.
It's because of all these people that pretended they were nice and look at my hair.
I'm a lovely guy and then didn't do fuck all.
They caused it.
It's interesting though, isn't it?
Because when those leaders are all together, Biden's still the main one in the middle, like that video we saw yesterday.
They all have to flank Biden.
I reckon that's why Rishi and Trudeau have gone off to form their own little group.
Shall we do a little breakaway?
I don't want to be in Biden's gang.
He's smelly, isn't he?
Have you seen his little string bean calf muscles?
Why don't we do our own one?
Listen, would you be... Is it offensive?
Do you like Friends as well?
Yeah, I love Friends.
It's a great show.
It's silly.
People don't talk about it enough, I don't think.
A couple of little nerds going off to form their own little groovy gang.
That would be old, stinky old Joe Biden.
Oh, Biden's... Look at him, bless his heart.
He's inadvertently flashed his G20 step-by-step cheat sheet that says things on it like, you take your seat, then you talk.
They've had to put the word, if you look closely, it says, you deliver your remarks.
You will sit at the centre and you will deliver opening remarks.
You will inadvertently compliment someone on their strength only to discover that they are from a nation you're in a proxy war with.
You will backpedal, not very quickly though because of your little string being carved and because you fall off bikes when you get on them because there's that bit when you have to push a pedal past true resistance, Joe.
It's that bit again where it says, you take your seat.
Surely that's the bit you don't need to tell someone.
You take your seat.
Well that means, the fact that I put you take your seat, that means there's been at least one occasion.
Sit on seat.
It doesn't say which seat.
Sir, I'm going to have to ask you to move!
Like he's sat on seats that have already got people in them.
He's tipped people out of seats.
He's tipped people out of wheelchairs.
No, God, you sit in your seat!
I drink your milkshake!
Does that have to become, like, a meme for Dear Old Joe?
But, like, to be fair, I've got one.
Do you know what I mean?
My one says things like, hello, awakening wonders.
Make some radical points.
About the mainstream media, glibly dismiss global politics and turn around YouTube censorship.
Be cautious.
Improvise a friends meme.
Yeah.
It's all in there.
Nice one though.
We did quite well, I thought, with that.
What's this you're putting up, Putin?
Oh, this was commented on that this is the morning after, like a big night out in Bali.
You've got Biden there, Blinken, some other fella, all on their phones.
I don't think they should all be allowed to have these little holidays.
Can we see the bit where, for a moment, before we have the great Will Harris coming up, an agricultural expert, which I suppose is a less grandiose way of saying it, is a farmer who decries and denounces Bill Gates' methodology, without leaning into hysteria or conspiracy theory, before we get into that.
Let's look at Hunter Biden now.
Hunter Biden's given an interview with ABC News, and to be fair to the mainstream media news journalist who's interviewing him, she gives it to him, gal.
She sticks it to him.
But this is the interview where he gives us the image, I'm not going to wear my kimono, and I don't like that image of a kimono.
Would you even like if it was someone you were sexually attracted to opening their kimono?
Just imagine it for a moment.
Someone you're sexually attracted to, they open their kimono.
Yeah, I like it.
It's nice!
Don't ruin that!
But if you're not sexually attracted to them, they open in their kimono.
Klaus Schwab is opening his kimono.
What?
You do not like my many skin tags?
You think they're like coral blowing gently?
Blowing my skin tag?
Sorry.
Alright, let's have a look at Hunter Biden.
Let's see what he's got to say to himself.
What do you got to say to yourself, Hunter Biden?
In the list you gave me of the reasons why you're on that board you did not... He's gonna struggle there because she's... I don't wish to objectify a human being just on the basis of their physical appearance but that's an attractive human being.
I would say so.
And I reckon that's why he says this kimono thing.
So I think at the back of his mind he's like...
She's a very attractive journalist.
Joe, the poor lad, he's got a lot of struggles going on.
It's not his fault that his dad's in politics.
It's not his fault.
I say we've got to get past class war, condemning people from being from different types of backgrounds or whatever.
We've got to find ways to unify.
We've got to find them.
And he's had a drug problem, and Ian, I've had a drug problem, so I'm sympathetic towards him on all that.
But this interview is about, look, he's Ukrainian dealing, so she's just interested in all of that stuff.
That's a decent wage.
50 grand a month.
Of course. What role do you think that played?
I think that it is impossible for me to be on any of the boards that I just mentioned
without saying that I'm the son of the Vice President of the United States.
You were paid $50,000 a month for your position?
Look, I'm a private citizen.
That's a decent wage.
Also, come on, wasn't it like literally a couple of years ago this was censored from
all like social media?
There's an election on!
Right.
You don't put people off Joe Biden saying Trump will win.
And as you know, life is a simple thing where some people are just bad and some people are just good.
It's not like as Solzhenitsyn, who's Russian, said, the line between good and evil runs not between nations, races or creeds, but for every human heart.
There's no complexity or ambiguity to concepts like good and evil, which may not even exist in limitless, potentially nihilistic space.
No, go on, you've got a point.
People were literally banned off the internet for saying stuff like that on ABC News.
ABC is the simplest news.
A, B, C. Some of the others, N, B, C.
What?!
These letters have stumbled to pull over the fucking place!
You've got an N, you've got a B, you've got a C. Our one, B. One, then what?
Another B, then what?
C. Love it.
It's got to be at least one C. That we know.
CNN, NBC, BBC, ABC.
What do you get on all of them?
Basically the same stuff.
One thing that I don't have to do is sit here and open my kimono as it relates to how much money I make or make or did or didn't.
But it's all... You can see he's... Oh my God, he lost his train of thought there, didn't he?
Of course he did, because the image of his own kimono, you know, he's blown his own mind.
Yeah.
Listen, I don't have to sit here and open my own kimono.
Also, you can see, I say, the beginnings of the Biden delirium.
Oh God.
Can't you?
Like, if you take it back a bit, young Putin, he's starting to sort of go... Tail off at the end of sentences.
Like, if that was Joe Biden, he'd be like, listen, I don't have to... Hey, what are you?
Look at those biceps!
Open my kimono, Jojo!
Siddly-o-cho-cho!
15 trillion billion-obes!
It's like jazz.
It's like scat.
The Biden's talk, semi-scat.
And that scat, at any point, I could start losing it.
But you see, Biden Senior wasn't like that at Hunter Biden's age.
Hunter Biden's following in his dad's footsteps now.
He's becoming his dad now.
Crack.
It speeds up the process.
That's one of the great things about it.
All right, let's see where he goes next.
How much money I make or make or did or didn't.
But it's all been reported.
If your last name wasn't Mike.
You just think the crack joke was wrong?
No, I don't.
I mean, it's just interesting, isn't it?
I think you're right.
I think either potentially that or the kimono thing hit him so hard that he spent the rest of the sentence in his mind going... I've done things like that.
I said the wrong thing there.
I've done things like that where you use a metaphor or a joke like it's too mad.
Oh no, I've said that thing now.
It's so weird that you've got to keep talking whilst also having that thought, isn't it?
You should have done that because what he's done is he's looking at her and it's all the time, look this is a person that's lived a certain type of life, right?
So he's known drugs, he's known sex, he's lived in that world.
Now he's talking to someone that's attractive and he's got to be sort of really serious about his business dealings.
with Ukraine and everything, which is sort of like, and whether or not his relationship
with his father is instrumental in him getting those views.
It's very serious and it's sort of dry. And the whole conversation should be conducted like
that, shouldn't it? Well, look, as a matter of, obviously, nepotism may have played a
role. If you're part of a privileged system, then evidently you get introduction,
right? It should be normal.
I'd say use Latin based words, like just don't get into evocative imagery of someone wearing
a little short silk dressing gown. And you're like, you're dick and ball spin there. You're
wearing a kimono. Because you need me just wearing a kimono with no pants on underneath
it. Because what you come to the door, it's like he's now saying, listen, I'm opening
my kimono with you about how much I earn. I'm come do my interview in a kimono. Like
this, like, don't bring a kimono into it. No, it's not a phrase, is it? I've never heard
that phrase.
I like it, though.
I like it.
I'm going to say it every day now.
I don't have to open my kimono to you, Joe.
Also, is he opening the kimono from the front or the back?
If you're going to reveal... I don't think you can open it from the back.
You'd have to swish it up, like that.
Like Marilyn Monroe over that vent.
I don't have to stand over a vent like Marilyn Monroe.
My kimono will show you my Jojo.
You named your dick after your own dad?
Yeah!
What's wrong with that?
The big guy!
And that's an out.
Okay, I don't know if they say anything else.
Let's see, we could have a little look.
Do you think he would have been asked to be on the board of Burisma?
I don't know.
I don't know.
Probably not.
I don't think that there's a lot of things that would... Also, he's been through too much.
I feel a bit sad for him now.
I've got to say this.
Someone sent me his book and said, look, I'm friends with Hunter Biden.
But we were already well into sort of going, hang on a minute, they should have banned all that gear from the internet about the laptop.
So we'd already sort of picked a bit of a side.
But on the level of one addict to another addict, I feel a lot of sympathy for him and I bet I'd get on all right with him.
I bet he's all right.
Like, don't you think sometimes?
Oh, yeah.
He'd be quite a nice person.
He's a nice bloke.
I don't want to, like, alienate him.
This is about corruption and power.
Loads of corrupt people are really nice.
Who else?
All corrupt people are quite nice.
Yeah, probably a lot of them.
Yeah, I've met some powerful people.
I met Boris Johnson before, when I went on Question Time that he was on.
I've met the Queen, God rest her soul.
Are you saying she was corrupt?
That's a headline.
I don't know about corrupt, but isn't she part of a system that is dependent?
Ultimately, they are.
It's a corrupt system.
Is it?
Do you want to keep giving people money that have got a load of money?
What's the point of that?
They've got the money.
Give us the money.
It's gone crazy.
Well, she was able to have power over loads of laws.
You know, anyone who can do that when you're not a member of either Congress or Parliament.
I'm going to ask you one simple question.
Are you getting all your information from the Crown?
Well, the thing is with The Crown, right, when I watch The Crown, like, I tell myself, this is only pretend, but I also go, ah, you bastards.
And I completely buy into every single bit of it.
Hook, line and sinker.
I like it.
I know.
You turn into a royalist after watching The Crown.
What happens with me is I go into The Crown like, this is a pyramid structure that has to be smashed at all costs.
We need to create an egalitarian society where, you know, each according to his means, all of that.
Fairness, justice, all of these kind of things.
I watch Crown I think.
Why don't you leave her alone?
She's been through enough, hasn't she?
Oh, for God's sake!
But, also, Diana, Elizabeth Debicki, playing Diana in The Crown, oh my God, she might as well be Diana!
Spitting image.
Listen, we're at a stage where... Where we should do some news.
Well, we've got Will, but we've also got a... Here's the news though, here's the effing news.
We've got to do Will.
If Will's waiting, we've got to do Will.
You can't keep a farmer waiting.
He's a man in tune with the seasons.
Absolutely.
His whole point is we're in tune with the seasons.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is a great moment for us.
It's good that he'll have heard all that stuff about kimonos as well.
I'm sorry about that, Will, but I'm going to start with an apology to Will for being stupid.
Then I'm going to move into a very serious interview and I'm going to impress him with my knowledge of agriculture.
That's how this is going to go.
You're going to love this.
Yeah, look, I've got questions already.
I've done research.
You think I don't know about agriculture?
I know about agriculture.
I've got it all here.
Now, the reason we want to talk to Will Harris is because we've been admirers of his for a little while.
In fact, we did a video about a year ago where we talked about... It wasn't that long ago, but yeah.
Am I exaggerating?
I've known about him for ages!
What, do you think that we have anyone?
Because he was on Joe Rogan.
We knew about him before that.
No, we did know about him before that.
We did know about him before that because he was on a news show.
He was on Tucker, actually.
And then he mucked off Tucker.
No, he was on Fox.
Another Fox thing.
He mucked the geyser.
The other geyser was trying to get him to be reductive.
He was, he was.
And we were like, we like Will Harris.
He's the British guy, which I've never quite understood.
Will Harris, better have seen that video, because if someone did a video about me like that,
I'd watch it.
Yeah.
So, Will Harris, thanks for joining us on the show.
You're a fourth generation farmer, the owner of White Oak Pastures in Georgia.
It's a family farm utilizing regenerative agriculture and humane animal husbandry practices.
Will, thank you so much for joining us on the show.
Thank you for having me, but full disclosure, I do not own a kimono.
Will, you're one of the few men who I would welcome the opportunity to interview in a kimono,
open or closed or in any state.
But I imagine that you are a person that simply sleeps naked, is going to be my first guess.
Maybe, I don't know what you wear in lieu of pyjamas.
Why are you getting into this?
Sorry.
I do sleep naked.
I do not own pyjamas or a kimono.
Will, look, I'd love to talk to you all day about your naked states in the dead of night, but can we begin with why Bill Gates is purchasing so much US farmland and what you think his goals are and whether it could induce a food crisis and whether or not there's anything nefarious about it.
Give us some inside information, Will.
Illustrate some of these points for us, dear man.
So I think that we have a very damaging food production system.
I think that that damage is a result of the misuse of technology.
And I think that we have continued to misuse that technology because there is so much money in it.
So much, so much profit in it.
And I think that if it were, if it were not so much profit in it, that we would have gone back to a much more resilient food production system a long time ago.
Do you think this is part of a trajectory that began almost with monocultures, the intensive farming practices?
Is this merely a natural progression as society generally becomes more technological, or is this a radical and dangerous departure?
So it is a radical and dangerous departure.
But you can very succinctly track back when we started to make our system, the overdose system, more damaging post-World War II.
And post-World War II, there was reason for us, my father's generation, to really want cheap, abundant food.
Europe was starving.
It was post-war.
And the war had made a lot of technology available that had not been affordable previously.
So it was embraced, and I think it was embraced for good reasons.
I think that the unintended consequences that were horrible were also unnoticed consequences.
We didn't know we were doing the damage we were doing for many years.
I think that now we know the damage we're doing, but we persist in doing it And it gets back to the profitability of our whole system.
One of the reasons we wanted to speak to you, Will, is because of this open letter to Bill
Gates from the Community Alliance for Global Justice and AgriWatch, because it addresses
these issues articulately, breaking down into four main points why Bill Gates is wrong with
his approach to agriculture, in this instance on the continent of Africa, where similar
to his previous stances in nations like India, he appears to be simplifying the nature of
the problem facing the food industry or the agricultural industry in order to implement
policies and ideas that would be beneficial to the organisations that he supports.
The letter started with synthetic fertilisers.
Could you tell me what your stand is on the fertilizer issue, particularly with regard to the problems being faced by farmers in particular in the... New Zealand, Netherlands... Yeah, where these edicts coming from like sort of centralized globalist organizations are affecting their ability to earn a living and practice their trade.
I think the chemical fertilizers is one of the most abused technologies, misused technologies that we have today.
You know, along with herbicide, insecticide, pesticide, you know, side means kill, pesticides that we utilize extensively.
My father used to tell a story about the first time he was exposed to ammoniated fertilizer, chemical fertilizer, after World War II.
And it just had an incredible, obvious benefit to the plants growing on his land.
And he embraced it.
And between he and later I, we used chemical fertilizers on every acre of land we had every single year, at least once, maybe twice, until the mid-90s.
For 50 years, we used it.
And in doing so, did horrible damage to our soil.
I'm not going to say irreparable damage, because I think that we have repaired it.
But fertilizer is like a drug.
The more you use it, the more you need it.
The more you use it, the more you need it.
It makes farmers dependent on international markets, ultimately, doesn't it?
Absolutely.
And there's a tremendous amount of money made on the sales and distribution of chemical fertilizer.
I was in that business myself as a young man.
The Green Revolution that Bill Gates advocates for appears to have not been the resounding success that he declares it to be and also appears to be contributing again to centralisation of agriculture.
And the kind of dependency that you just alluded to that's induced by the dependence on fertilizer.
So what do you think about this green revolution and the narratives around it, Will?
So you referenced the fact that Stuart Varney kicked my ass pretty good on Fox News.
That was him going.
The point he was making was Why shouldn't Bill Gates, who is a technocrat, own as much farmland as he wants to?
I wanted my response to be, misused technology got us into this damaging situation we're in, and more technology is not going to get us out.
The abuse of technology breaks the cycles of nature.
Water cycle, mineral cycle, microbial cycle, carbon cycle, energy cycle.
What we need is to get these cycles of nature again started to produce the symbiosis, the abundance that nature can produce and produce for millions of years.
We've been going against it for the last 80 or 90 Does that relate to climate resilient seeds also and engineered seeds more generally?
We've had Vandana Shiva on the show a couple of times and she is quite critical of Bill Gates herself and in particular she focuses on the patenting of seeds and they're sort of Inherent disrespect for nature and the practices of husbandry which, at best, suggest a partnership between our species and the natural world.
As we increasingly materialise, rationalise, technologise – that's not a word, I keep trying to invent that word every day but I can't do it yet – turn everything into technology.
And I wonder where climate resiliency and this model stands, because it was an aspect of Gates's assumptions that was addressed again by that letter, Will.
So hubris and profitability go to push this agenda that we can do better than nature.
And we've proven in the case of chemical fertilizers, pesticides, hormone implants in animals, so therapeutic antibiotics in animals, That when we use technology to improve upon nature, there are unintended consequences that really swap efficiency for resiliency.
In my mind, the genetically modified seed are another example.
We just haven't had time yet to see the negative unintended consequences.
In addition to the education that you have evidently acquired through the practice of agriculture, do you study a lot of theory around these things?
And also, are you into philosophy more generally?
So, what I advocate for is experiential wisdom versus reductive science.
We've gotten so far away from experiential wisdom and so far in the realm of reductive science and the technology that spins off from it that we are addicted to it.
There's so many reasons why technology is embraced over nature.
Even in teaching it in land-grant colleges.
I graduated from the University of Georgia a long, long time ago.
And we were taught individual disciplines by myopic professional PhDs who knew all there was to know about this one siloed knowledge, expertise.
And that's easy to teach in school.
You hire a veterinarian to teach about animal health.
You hire a nutritionist to teach about animal nutrition, etc.
It's experiential wisdom.
You can't do a how-to manual on that.
Every page will start out saying it depends, depending on the circumstances.
One of the things that Bill Gates said and that this letter also addressed is that he would support financially any agricultural endeavor that didn't amount to people singing Kumbaya.
Now I think what that meant is that Bill Gates is dismissive of traditional practices that emphasize harmony between humankind and nature and regards even beyond the, I would say, nefarious and prophetizing mentality of his technocratic modality has a kind of disregard for spirit in a way that's sort of quite offensive and reductive and is part of a broader trend to prevent human beings having a kind of sentient and sensual relationship with our environment in an attempt to make everything a product.
In an attempt to make everything material, in an attempt to make everything rational, you can start to dismiss historic relationships, traditional relationships, and as you say, experiential relationships.
How do you feel about the, you know, the reductivism that appears to be represented through that attitude there, Will?
That statement pisses me off.
He's talking about me and people like me, and I'm not much of a kumbaya singer.
We have proven here on this farm in the last 25 years the benefits of applying experiential wisdom over the benefits of applying the bought and paid for product of reductionist science and technology.
I can literally prove how the land is better, the water is better, the community is better.
The welfare of the animals is better.
I can go on and on.
So don't call me a Kumbaya slinger.
I can frickin' show you.
How difficult is it to extract your farm from centralising forces and centralised agricultural industrial power, i.e.
fertiliser and probably methods and means of distribution and commercial and financial partnerships that are probably inhered within your industry?
And is it possible, may I ask, to contemplate an agricultural movement where farmers are able to extract themselves from the obligations that these sort of Our production model here is the opposite of the centralised, industrialised, commoditised system that's feeding us today.
Very, very difficult.
That system values only efficiency.
Now, efficiency is important.
It's just incumbent upon all of us to try to operate efficiently.
But when efficiency becomes the only metric, then you give up resiliency, you open yourself up to all sorts of unintended consequences.
The model that we practice here, and we're not the only ones, this is just the one I can talk about, the model that people like us practice today is highly, highly replicatable.
It is not highly scalable.
White oak pasture is probably as big as it needs to be, but there could be a white oak pasture in every agricultural county in the nation, or two or three.
In order for that to happen, does there need to be the popularization and dissemination of these methods and the popularization of decentralization as an alternative, not only in agriculture, but in other political spaces?
And I don't want to drag you out of your evident vast area of expertise, but do you feel that alliances between yourself and other farmers that share this modality and these ideals would help? And is there any movement comparable to that?
Because don't you think it would be helpful with the Sri Lankan farmers, the Dutch farmers, the
German farmers, the New Zealand farmers? Isn't this a potential way that they could extract
their threatened businesses from the horror and dread being imposed by the very centralizing
forces that you describe?
Let's be clear that if there is a movement from the current system to the system that I advocate,
It will not be farmer-led.
It's got to be consumer-led.
Farmers simply can't afford to say, I think I'll change everything I've been doing for the last 80 years and see if people will buy it from me and I can make enough money to continue to operate.
That can't happen on scale.
A few of us did it, but that's not going to happen in my... It certainly won't be... The change certainly won't come from Big Ag.
It certainly won't come from big food.
It certainly won't come from the politicians who are fed by big ag and big food.
It won't come from universities that are fed by big ag and big food.
It will be consumer-led if it happens.
And for consumers to do that, they've got to come to understand how expensive food is today.
The fact is, my food costs more than Big Ag, Big Food food.
It's because we internalize the externalized costs that happen in that commodity industrial program.
So my beef may be 30% more than industrial beef.
That's probably a fair number.
But how much does losing antibiotics, the pathogens are resistant to antibiotics, how much does that cost?
How much does a good hurricane cost?
How much does the dead spot in the Gulf of Mexico cost?
All these externalized costs that the system puts into place are not recognized when you actually buy the food from the big food companies.
When you talk about consumers and consumer choice, it of course has to, we have to, when analysing that idea, include the way that consumers are coached, the way that we're being increasingly impoverished, the cost of Living crisis, the lack of awareness around these issues, and as you've explained, that many academic and media spaces have been co-opted by Big Food to such an alarming degree that these ideas are either seen as niche or kumbaya type ideas rather than pragmatic.
So you can see that systemic change is required there when it comes to the perception of many of the ideas that you've described.
Now, I'm a vegan, but I'm also non-judgmental.
That makes me a very rare thing indeed.
One of the things that the World Economic Forum's agenda, the Great Reset, states is that you'll eat much less meat, which is presumed to be as a result of the impact on climate, the claim that meat is bad for you.
What do you make of these claims?
And can you explain the difference between your type of farming practices and mass production farming practices with regard to the issue of eating meat?
I can.
So, animal impact on land is part of proper animal impact.
It's part of mitigating climate change.
It doesn't contribute to climate change.
There's a work that was done by a company called Qantas Environmental Engineering Company three or four years ago on my farm that shows that we actually sequester carbon Actually, 3.5 pounds of carbon dioxide equivalent for every pound of grass-fed beef we sell.
You can see that on our website, whiteoakpastures.com, under the environmental stewardship section.
It proves that we are actually part of mitigating climate change.
And I can go on and on about that.
I don't want to go down the rabbit hole with it.
You know, the junk science that's out there, that says that ruminants cattle are destroying the environment, destroying the climate, part of climate change.
It's incredible to me how that caught traction.
And I think it caught traction because there is a big percentage of the population that is vegan, vegetarian, but not just vegan, vegetarian.
Vegan, vegetarian.
The difference of a vegetarian, vegan like you, who wants to control what they eat and allows me to control what I eat, it's fine.
We're aligned.
I'd go to war to defend your right to do it.
Militant vegans, militant vegetarians won't decide what everybody's going to eat, including themselves.
So that environment was there.
The science was, they could prove that, scientists could prove that Industrial cattle production was carbon in the middle, big carbon in the middle.
So then you had the money behind the vegetable protein movement, so you got this perfect alignment of the settlement against meat, just science to show meat's bad in a circumstance, not all circumstances.
And then the platform that the big people who stood to make a lot of money on that technology,
all aligned. And it's incredible how it caught traction. I mean, if people could just take a
step back and look.
It's interesting how often polemicism is induced in our culture to prevent clarity and how
often we are invited to enter into conflict with one another over cultural issues that
amount to imposing control on other people.
I feel like, where possible, we ought harmonise with our anthropological origins, whether that's diet, behaviour, or the way that we organise society.
I'm not suggesting some atavistic lashback to pre-neanderthal times, I'm just suggesting that when it comes to diet, and it comes to the way that we organise tribes and groups, that we ought acknowledge that it's very difficult for human beings to live In cultures of 5 billion, 2 billion, 1 billion, 300 million, with one centralised idea where people tell one another what they have to do.
It seems to me that this model of decentralisation when it comes to agriculture could be applied in all kinds of political spheres.
So you can reach the point where I can say I'm a vegan and I have my reasons for being vegan, you are not a vegan, you have your reasons for being not vegan, let's allow each other to live our own lives and not use what ultimately amounts to Forms of, I don't know, what do I want to say, certainly judgmentalism, and sometimes as severe as fascism, to be the dominant tools in our culture.
Just to pass on a question from our chat, we have a community online watching this now.
Venus Siren asks, do programmes like Farm Fresh make a difference?
And I guess that makes sense to you, because it doesn't to me, but it's the question they wanted to ask.
You know, I'm not exactly... I've heard of farm creators.
I'm not exactly sure who they are, how they do business.
There are a lot of companies out there that greenwash product.
Greenwashing is a term that I use to describe how big ag and big food hire brilliant people to talk about their product differently.
To make it seem like it's the product that people like us produce.
And it increases the value of their product and decreases the value of our product.
So it's the greatest nemesis obstruction that people like us have to move forward with this production system is the greenwashing by big companies.
Now, again, I don't know the one that you mentioned specifically.
I've only heard of them.
But so often that Commoditization, that co-mangling of product from many different farms results in the opportunity to greenwash.
It is really sad, but I don't think that consumers can make their purchasing decision based on a label.
Labels are absolutely crap.
I think they're intentionally misleading by USDA.
We can talk about it all day, but Did you know that you can buy beef in a store in your community that says product of the USA proudly stamped on the label but the animal was born and raised and slaughtered in Australia or Uruguay or New Zealand or many other countries?
Intentionally misleading so consumers can't believe the label.
Consumers really struggle with verifications and certifications.
I was a great advocate of that when it first started.
I've had just about every certification you can have, still got a bunch of them, but there's some really low-hanging fruit out there and consumers are hopelessly confused about what's good and what's not.
And now I think labels are a greenwashing tool.
The consumer looks for something that conforms with his morals and standards This one's certified.
I'll take it.
And it probably could be the low-hanging fruit.
Sadly, despite the fact they don't have bandwidth, consumers got to know something about the farm.
Either follow them closely on social media or go see them.
There's got to be transparency.
There's got to be authenticity.
And our marketing involves, y'all come see us.
Come look.
Will, it's such an engaging conversation and perhaps it's because you evidently have values and principles, whether it's decentralization, integrity, authenticity, a willingness to admit that you are on a different trajectory and that it didn't work and that you changed direction as a result of that.
And I feel that this conversation is certainly been very valuable for me because there are principles here that could be applied in various areas and for me that is a hallmark of a genuinely valuable
discourse.
We have to wrap it up now but I'm incredibly grateful to you for giving us your time and
for the expertise accrued to be able to have a conversation like this.
My only regret is that we were unable to conduct this conversation in kimonos and to reveal
perhaps more of the dark undercarriage, as I'm going to call it, that lurks beneath all
Thanks, man.
Thanks very much, Will.
It'd be lovely to talk to you again if you have time, because we've got so many more questions, but alas, not the time.
If you get me a kimono, it'll be an extra large.
Extra large.
Let me write that down.
Kimono for Will Harris, extra large.
Will, thanks for your time, man.
We'll speak to you again soon.
Thank you so much.
Thanks for joining us.
Well, it's been a fantastic show today with Stay Free with Russell Brandon.
We still have numerous obligations to fulfill.
For example, I told you that we have a great analysis of Donald Trump's announcement that he will be Standing for presidency in 2024.
Many people are saying, why so early?
Why so early?
But I don't think we're going to have time to put that in the stream.
I guess we'll have to put that up.
Put it on Rumble.
We'll put it on Rumble.
It'll be on Rumble first, in full, for free, a little later this evening.
But we do have to do a few other things.
We've got to wrap up a few things.
Firstly, have I told you lately that I love you?
Not for a while.
I've been under a lot of pressure, but I will do.
It appears that I have some commercial imperatives of my own, and I'm going to do them right now.
Well, how do I do it?
Do I throw to it?
Is it pre-rec'd?
Is it a pre-rec'd thing that I'm throwing to here, or am I doing it live?
I think it's that thing you did earlier.
Okay.
Did you know about something?
Stay with us, because I'm about to... Gareth, get ready for this.
Did you know I've been making commercials for sponsors for this show?
Wow.
As part of the... Is there nothing you can't do?
There's a few things, actually, and during this commercial, I will list but 20 of them.
But for now, let's have a look at this advert that I've made for Field of Greens, one of our sponsors and partners on this show, which enable us to make this content, bring together different communities and speak freely with a variety of people and to share deep, deep spiritual and political truths.
Let's have a look at this quick word from our sponsors.
We make horrible food choices between fast food, processed food, high sugar, high fat, high carbs and sodium.
We are slowly inviting a serious health crisis.
You already know you don't eat healthy, so what are we going to do about it?
Studies show there's supposed to be a minimum of five servings of fruit and five servings of vegetables each day.
It's a hassle.
It'll spoil before we eat it.
The answer is the simple organic nutrition found in fielder greens.
Field of Greens provides a full spectrum of the essential vegetables and fruits our bodies need, crave, want, desire for proper nutrition.
Field of Greens is an organic superfood.
It's the whole fruit and the whole vegetable.
Field of Greens is the only fruits and vegetables brand backed by a better health promise.
Fields of Greens promises you you'll feel healthier fast.
But the greater proof comes during your next physical when your doctor checks your lab results and says, whatever you're doing, keep it up.

What do you reckon Will Harris would make of this commercial?
Will Harris there?
I think he'd love your delivery.
Yeah.
That's all I'm going to say.
Why Brickhouse Russell?
I'm not sure about that.
Why is that mainly that bit where you smelt your finger that I was concerned about?
Because I thought it was a good thing to do.
So imagine like the way of knowing that a field of greens is like a good product is you like you're a doctor and you're like, oh, I don't know what you're doing, but keep it up.
Do doctors do that?
No, they mustn't.
Like, imagine a doctor did that.
Imagine a doctor did that test and then they, like, bun up the bum for if you're a male prostate.
And you said, I think you're probably going to send that off for the lab results, are you?
And he goes, I can do it right here.
I'll do doctoring like Will Harris.
Good instance.
Yeah, you're fine, boy.
Get back out there.
I loved Will Harris, didn't you?
I love a butch farmer.
Also, we should probably say, we don't think that's how he conducts.
Medical examinations.
Of course he doesn't.
Will Harris doesn't do that.
He jumps straight in.
Like on his cows or something.
I'm not doing this because I like Will Harris.
I want Will Harris to like us forever.
He's got to come back on.
He's so brilliant.
There's a million more questions to ask.
Look, I didn't like the endorsing the meat-eating for quite as long, Will.
But this Will, him, a really young Putin... Well, of course he pushed you into it, didn't he?
That's what I laughed at.
I noticed him giving you that piece of paper.
I'm shuffling over.
Why?
Take that, take that.
Why give me that for?
He just wanted you to endorse eating meat.
I'm against it.
It's cruel.
Cruel to... Yeah, I wouldn't eat a dog or a cat.
I wouldn't eat anything.
I wouldn't eat any animal.
I wanted to ask him about Monsanto.
Oh, you little... Why?
Because they sponsor universities.
They give money to universities to tell them... Good question!
You should have took your question!
It is actually on that sheet.
Which one, though?
Oh, hang on.
There are so many sheets.
This one, oh my god, I've got three sheets on Will Harris, I've got a letter from these people, field of dreams, field of dreams, Donald Trump, trying his hardest to run a country, smelling his own fingers.
Oh, hello!
Have you been on holiday?
Oh, you're nervous?
Is there something wrong with you?
Oh, was you bullied at school?
Because I like it, like, that that's a tool for diagnostics.
Listen, it's been a fantastic show, hasn't it?
And tomorrow's going to be another one.
That's why you have to join us again for Stay Free with Russell Brown.
Tomorrow we're talking to Adam Wagner about how, during the lockdown, we was mugged off massive by the government.
We was mugged right off by them.
What they done?
They locked us up.
They didn't even have to, shouldn't have been doing it.
No.
Wish you sooner.
What about Ritchie Sue?
He was one of the ones doing it.
I like him now, Ritchie Sue.
I know, you're all into him because of his haircut and his shirt.
I bet those shirts cost an absolute fortune, by the way.
He was so jittery, like when that call with Zelensky, them two, I think they had little stiffies.
Zelensky, we support you so much!
That was so turned on by Zelensky because he's like a proper leader who does wars and that.
And why did Trudeau stop doing an impersonation after saying his name?
He only committed to that bit of it.
Did you ever do that?
Like if you say a name.
Say if you know someone and you know that their name is a Spanish name or whatever.
Juan, would you do that?
Sure, yeah.
Like, because you can't put it in your own accent.
Juan, like that.
Juan, Frederico, Vladmir, Vladmir, for fuck's sake, are you going to leave that nappy there?
It stinks of shit!
Like you're married to him, in this.
Oh, okay.
I'm his wife in this.
I've cast myself as his wife.
Sorry, I should have got there sooner.
I'm his wife, I'm from Croydon, I'm smoking meth.
I know, I'm a mess.
And Vladimir's not going to put up with that for long, is he?
He's married me, but I'm a woman now, and I'm smoking meth, and I'm in Croydon, which is in South London.
Is he back to being a comedian now?
Is he still in charge of Ukraine?
You know what it's like when you are in proxy war.
That cassette will kill, man.
Listen, I'm not against Zelensky.
There's a lot of people that write, love Zelensky, and quite rightly so.
Brave Leader, all of that stuff.
I'm just worried about the... We have to balance the reporting elsewhere.
Elsewhere, you're getting enough hagiography, aren't you?
I mean, I think, like, CNN, BBC, NBC... All the C's are doing...
A grandmother yesterday was happy that her family didn't die.
Oh, this is the news, is it?
That people like their family not die.
Here's some more news.
Do you want everyone to die in a nuclear war?
Oh, also no.
Well then, explain why.
What's going on, you morons?
You mad morons?
Listen, if you want more of this, you can have more of it.
We're continuing in Stay Free AF, which is our membership community over on Locals.
You can join that for a small fee where you get access to me.
Unique access.
You get all our content in full for free.
Well, not for free, actually.
We charge you.
We get it in full first.
Did I get this?
You deserve to be a member of our community.
Have you been to the swimming pool this morning?
You've been down a bitch, cos you smell very well.
I let myself loose a little bit, don't I, Gal, over there?
You do, yeah.
Looser than this.
I'm looser, baby.
I'm a piece of old shit.
Oh God, the kimono's out!
I don't have to open my kimono to you!
I don't have to show you what I got!
I don't need to show you nothing, baby!
Okay, so we've got a fantastic show for you tomorrow.
Join us there and we'll go into the weekend in the right mood.
Free, open, expressive and progressive.
Beyond categories.
Ha ha ha ha ha!
All relaxed?
