	I'm a black man and I could never be a veteran.
	Brought to you by Pfizer.
	In this video, you're going to see the future.
	I'm a black man and I could never be a veteran.
	you you
	Hello there, you Awakening Wanderers!
	Thanks for joining us on Stay Free with Russell Brand.
	If you ain't been told yet today that you are loved, that you are complete, that you are beautiful, and that you are whole, and you're going in the right direction, then let us convey that very message to you right now, you beautiful Awakening Wanderer.
	Joining me for the show is my on-screen assistant, Gareth Roy, with whom I will be discussing matters such as Merc, suing to kill Medicare drug pricing.
	We'll be with you on YouTube for a while, we'll be there, maybe Twitter, are we on Twitter still?
	We don't know, you never know with Elon, do you? You never know what moves he might make.
	Hopefully we're on Twitter.
	When we get to exclusively being on Rumble, the original home of free speech,
	where we bring people together in a spirit of love, WHO have got a plot to use the EU's vaccine passport tech.
	Is that true?
	Allegedly.
	Or is it simply an allegation we're making?
	We'll be discussing it in depth.
	Uh, later on in our presentation, Here's the News, we'll be talking more about the WHO, where they get their money, and what exactly it is they're up to with this new treaty that they propose should be allowed to bypass the laws of the country you are in.
	But first, do you know how to smile?
	This is it, isn't it?
	This is it.
	No, no, no.
	No, you've misunderstood.
	Right, right.
	Smile.
	Right, right.
	It's glorious.
	Beautiful.
	Has anyone ever told you how beautiful your smile is?
	It really is.
	I have actually.
	A lot of people have said it before.
	Over in Japan, the Japanese folks got so used to wearing face masks during Covid that they've had to have smile lessons and I've had a look at this and they aren't doing very well.
	Like some of them are not entering into it in the right spirit.
	They're not even, because the problem was that they're wearing face masks and of course face masks, as you know Gareth, indefatigably are worth wearing.
	We're on YouTube.
	We're on YouTube.
	In a minute we'll be on Rumble.
	Face marks definitely work and we're not ultimately a sort of a symbol, an emblem that came to be a sort of a facial testimony to your political position, but in fact we're just a sort of a medical thing.
	Very good, I see what you've done there.
	It's very good, yeah.
	Yeah?
	Like your lying smile.
	Well, I'll just flash this bad boy.
	If ever I need to get something, I'll just use that.
	No problems here.
	Hello.
	I ain't forgotten nothing.
	They should have me.
	Take me there to Japan to coach them back to normal smiling.
	Let's have a look at this bit of news about smiling.
	The Japanese government lifted its mask recommendation in March as it began the transition.
	You've got to smile too quickly, I think.
	Like...
	It's not that long.
	No.
	Like, what, what, what, why do they forget it so quickly?
	Yeah, like they could let their mouth go on holiday for a bit or something.
	Isn't it like, yeah, it's like riding a bike, isn't it?
	Smiling, like, you don't, like, you, don't you just, isn't that what they say?
	Also, you don't smile just for other people to see it, do ya?
	Or do ya?
	Right, so like, say like I'm like this now.
	Yeah, and then I said something nice, like, you look so great today.
	Oh yeah!
	There it is!
	Who's that guy back there?
	Did it anyway!
	It's like they couldn't be bothered.
	Right.
	Like, smile!
	...into a post-Covid society.
	That's like some people saying that, if you say that to a woman, that is sexist.
	And I can see why, because I don't like anyone trying to control my mood from outside.
	You weren't saying it to a woman.
	Were you?
	I was saying it to you.
	You were saying it to me.
	But like, I do remember that that's one of the things.
	Right.
	Don't shout that.
	Smile!
	Never shout smile.
	Rule one.
	Don't shout smile at someone.
	No.
	Don't shout anything!
	I don't think... If that's what these classes are... Smile!
	That's not the right spirit.
	It's not the right spirit.
	Look, there's actually a presentation up there saying smile.
	Nice logo, a bit complex.
	It's a heart.
	It's smiling at you.
	It looks like it's taking place in a bunker of some sort.
	We're down in the bunker, grinning with a clover.
	Like, what's the thing in the corner of the smile?
	But it's taken many people a few months to let masks go.
	They're wearing it in the class.
	At this point, I don't know what they're looking at.
	Because if they can see through those masks, then they're brilliant.
	Because surely the point of the mirror is to help you to understand the quality of your smile.
	They're not entering into the spirit of the class.
	They're unwilling.
	In a class about how, right, now that you no longer need these masks and you've evidently somehow forgotten how to smile during this period of time, right, here's a mirror.
	Get them- Get it off!
	You're ruining this class!
	Like, if it was- I don't know, if it was, like, football class, and you just sort of wouldn't put on the equipment... Well, look, the only other time that someone holds a mirror like that in front of me is if I go to the dentist.
	You know, they clean your mouth, and then there's loads of blood, and then they put the mirror there to be like, look, see what's happened!
	You just go, oh, God!
	Firstly, you should be ashamed of yourself.
	Look in there.
	Look at that.
	Yeah.
	What the hell are you doing?
	You disgust me.
	Yes.
	Do you expect to find a wife with all that going on in there?
	Look at some of the brown bits over the back.
	Smell it!
	Smell the... Look now, if we go back in this back bit near your tonsils, what's this little white brain thing?
	Smush it between your fingers.
	Mmm.
	Now, how the hell are you to find a bride with that thing going on?
	That concludes today's lesson.
	After years of keeping their faces partly covered, these students say classes like this are necessary to reawaken their awareness about facial expressions.
	It was a new experience for me to smile while paying attention to my facial expressions.
	I might become a bit more aware of what my facial expression looks like when I'm in a situation that makes me smile from now on.
	The grammar of facial expressions is regarded to be universal, but there are different facial expressions and different bits of body language.
	For example, there's that, in Italy.
	There is that.
	And then there's, eugh, in Italy also.
	It's mostly Italians.
	Italians.
	You've got... They've got a lot going on, haven't they?
	They're very expressive.
	They do this.
	It's like the Italians during Covid, because they have to wash their hands or whatever.
	Right guys, do this again.
	Can you imagine if there were lessons in Italy?
	Come on, do this a bit better.
	Now this, now that.
	Now get out there and be the best damn Italian you can be.
	Not you in Fiorentina though.
	Seekers hope the class will give them an edge in Japan's notoriously competitive graduate hiring process.
	And that fortune will smile upon them.
	When they flash their pearly whites.
	That lad's grinning himself senseless.
	Look at that, that Palestinian toddler hit by Israeli fire.
	I had the bottom of it a lesson about smiling.
	That's a world.
	Also, why are you not smiling?
	In part because a Palestinian toddler's been struck by a missile.
	Ooh-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo.
	When they flash their pearly whites.
	Shmea Jalon, TRT World.
	Well done.
	Keep it up, lads.
	Keep up the smiling.
	Also, Merck are suing.
	You know, Merck, the medical company, they're trying to kill a drug price negotiation.
	There's this ongoing attempt in America to control drug pricing, but it's just simply not possible to control it.
	The pharmaceutical industry simply want the money too much.
	They're not Willing to give it up if you're watching this right now on rumble.
	Why don't you join us on locals click the red button?
	That's where your comments will be and you get to join me every week for a meditation You get to learn about live events.
	It's worth it.
	It really were actually it's free, isn't it?
	No, just do it Why not why not do that?
	What exactly a Merc do?
	Well, look, you know that Medicare have been granted access to directly negotiate for a small number of high-cost prescription medicines.
	That's one of the things that Biden boasts about a lot.
	That, you know, we beat Big Pharma, a small number of high-cost prescription medicines can now be negotiated.
	By Medicare, and obviously Merck, being one of the big players in Big Pharma, don't like this.
	They say that the singular purpose of this scheme is for Medicare to obtain prescription drugs without paying fair market value.
	They say this when they charge $175,000 for a cancer drug.
	So they want people to keep paying that amount.
	It's the singular purpose.
	There is no other purpose.
	That's their only purpose.
	Alright, so have a look at that.
	Furthermore, the W.H.O.
	want to establish a treaties whereby your nation will give 5% of the health budget to the W.H.O.
	and follow binding advice that the W.H.O.
	offer them, i.e.
	if the W.H.O.
	advise that you shut down your borders and you lock your population in their homes and they take certain medications, That will be binding advice.
	And I actually don't think advice should be binding under any circumstances.
	It should be a friendly offering at worst.
	Yeah, so this is something that we've spoken about regarding the UK, but now the US, Canada and France have expressed support for this as well.
	So it does seem like it's starting to have a kind of global Interest.
	I feel like that these WHO, WEF, World Bank, IMF, all these organizations are by their nature an attempt to create a global bureaucracy.
	I think beneath these institutions there are the funding processes.
	Some of them are national funding like i.e.
	five percent for in order to like five percent of our health treaty of our health budgets will go to supporting this treaty in the necessary measures but Also, they receive a great deal of money, as you know, from philanthropic so-called organizations like the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
	Now, let me know in the chat if you think this is a significant strata of power.
	Look at the level of influence that we're discussing.
	The WHO is not democratically elected.
	They're going to be able to pass, essentially, laws.
	Binding advice is a law, isn't it?
	I bindingly advise you not to break that house.
	I bindingly advise you not to drink and drive.
	We're going to go into this in more depth in our presentation in a minute, but I think we're going to leave YouTube right now.
	Did you want to say anything before we leave YouTube?
	It's safe to say this.
	This is safe to say.
	I'm going to watch you like a hawk.
	Thank you very much for that.
	I know you've always cared about I don't want to get a strike!
	I know, I know, we don't, we won't do that.
	So member states will be obliged to follow the agency's instructions when responding to pandemics including introducing vaccine passports, border closures and quarantine measures under the draft regulations.
	So that's quite, that's a lot of power you could say.
	It's too much power.
	It's too much power.
	OK, listen, if you're watching us right now on YouTube, click and join us on Rumble right away.
	Of course I'm going to be talking about West Ham United.
	Of course I'm going to be saying don't gamble.
	Gamble responsibly.
	Stop gambling.
	Gambling is mental because I'm inadvertently advertising a gambling organisation.
	But we want to talk about how global or continental bureaucracies are used to utilize corporate profit and bypass systems of democratic power.
	And we're going to speculate now in ways that are potentially risky, aren't they Gal?
	Because they're not entirely undergirded by facts.
	So if you're watching us on YouTube right now, I want you to look at the link in the description, click over, join us on Rumble because I simply can't say this to you, the 6.5, nearly 6.5 million awakening wonders.
	I want you to join us.
	We're going to have a fantastic time.
	See you over there.
	All right, Gal.
	We're at home.
	We can relax.
	Undo your belt.
	Take your pants down.
	Get your mask off.
	Express yourself.
	Smile a bit.
	The WHO plots to use EU vaccine passport tech to form global digital health certificates.
	Vaccine passports?
	Well, look, this was, again, a conspiracy.
	Mandatory vaccines?
	This was a conspiracy, wasn't it?
	That during the pandemic, when vaccine passports came in, And we were told, these won't be, this is just for the pandemic, they won't be, you know, turned into like an everyday thing, that's not, that's not what we're doing, it's just for this.
	And again, this now seems to be coming true, that vaccine passports will be now used to form this global digital health certificates.
	In other words, digitising your health in order that, I guess critics could say, you can be spied on by your government.
	And denied certain things, as you were during the pandemic with us.
	We could show some of our content from 2020.
	Yeah.
	And I bet we're saying, oh, it's all well and good passing these regulations and allowing these temporary measures, but the concern would be that they continue to deploy them.
	Also, it looks like there's relationships between the EU and vaccine manufacturers, primarily in the form of, what's her name?
	Ursula von der Leyen, with her villainous name.
	And who is she again?
	She's the EU Commissioner, I think.
	And didn't she exchange texts with Albert Baller?
	She did.
	Ordering swathes, billions of pounds or euros worth of vaccines without it being ratified, verified or signed off.
	There's considerable power.
	Now of course in this country, the United Kingdom we're in, we Brexited ourselves right out of Europe and that was widely regarded as a symbol of sort of, I don't know, racism, troglodytism, foolishness.
	And of course there's been an astonishing economic downturn in the subsequent period.
	But I feel that people want to be able to control their own lives to such a degree that
	even symbolic opportunities to exit economic and bureaucratic entities like the EU that
	are non-representative and plainly have interesting relationships with pharmaceutical companies,
	big tech, big corporations, look to impose measures that could look like social credit
	gateways to things like social credit scores.
	I can understand why the EU is viewed with cynicism.
	Yeah, you can.
	I guess look in the same way that people talk about CBDCs as like digital money that I think is going on in China at the moment, that you're kind of having expiry dates of when you can spend money.
	You already mentioned the kind of social credit score element of what goes on in China at the moment.
	Essentially, the more and more of our lives that become digitized, the more and more that the powerful have control over that information, the more and more ability they have to decide what we can do, where we can go, what we can spend our money on.
	And it is, it has lived in the realm of the conspiracy, and it's something that people early on in the pandemic were saying, but it does seem like we're moving in that direction.
	Yeah, especially in a world where, you know, Elon, who we love, who's hopefully coming on the phone.
	Oh, I guess, I mean, we've got to get Elon on the show soon, don't we?
	Yeah, okay.
	It's now the time to start shooting.
	I worry every time you pick that phone up.
	There's Elon's Neuralink.
	There's Apple's new goggles that we were talking about yesterday.
	Yeah.
	And I thought I've made some pretty good points about those goggles.
	Whereas you, Gareth, were slapdash.
	Yes.
	Uh, and... Ill-informed.
	Ill-informed!
	And I think you needlessly eroticized those goggles a number of times!
	I tend to do that.
	I do that.
	Mustn't, must you?
	I shouldn't, no.
	So, like, what you don't want is a digital dystopia in which your freedom is endlessly diminished and we're ushered into a black crack Mirror World without due process, when we're losing contact with deep emotional truths, where nearly half of all men think about ending their own lives, where there's a deep suspicion in institutions, where half of us don't believe in God, and barely any of us believe in the government, where none of us trust the media.
	We don't want to turn ourselves into little blocks of data that are ushered about by regulations that you never voted for.
	Apparently 20% of vaccines will be controlled by the WHO.
	So they're going to have the ability to regulate and control us.
	And what's this?
	20% of all pandemic products will be in which way controlled?
	Through partnerships with the WHO?
	Yeah so basically yeah so I mean this is in this form is one of the issues that we had during the pandemic in terms of kind of pro-vaccine thing was that vaccines weren't spread distributed equally to nations.
	Poor folks.
	That's right nations that couldn't afford them because obviously the vaccine makers what they wanted to do was to stop the pandemic that's obviously was their main aim here.
	That's why we're giving them to everyone, except for people that we can't make money from.
	Hold on then, isn't it at least part of the reason to get money?
	No, it would be unconscionable, Albert Baller, to make a profit from this product.
	Two years later, biggest profit ever.
	So you have to... That's not conspiracy theory, is it?
	No, it isn't.
	That's money.
	I guess what their point is, if we control 20% of them, now we can distribute them.
	But I guess the other side of it is, if they're controlling 20% of vaccines, and then you
	have, for example, Bill Gates making profits from vaccines, then you...
	And certain vaccine manufacturers...
	Let us know in the chat, in the comments, if you think that this kind of legislation, imposed by unelected bureaucracies, that are funded by ultimately private interests, albeit in the guise of philanthropic organisations, does that leave us open to undue influence?
	Is it potentially something that could be corrupt?
	Particularly when you couple it, and it can't be decoupled from The ability for the WHO to regulate, to bypass national sovereignty.
	As more and more, it's becoming plain that democracy is irrelevant.
	Don't you want more power in your own life?
	More control over your community?
	Not less.
	You don't want to be moving further and further away.
	That's the march towards globalism.
	And the new order that we're continually told is the territory of the crackpot.
	Yeah, I kind of think, you know, this again, this does get mixed in with the kind of conspiracy right wing angle.
	And yet, I think there are loads of people on the left who recognize that privacy is a very important thing.
	And that when it's things like Facebook selling our data, Or any other kind of big tech having access to our data.
	It's very much viewed in kind of, oh no, that's a view of the left that we can get behind.
	But when it relates to something like the WHO, suddenly it becomes a kind of right-wing talking.
	That's why it's important we have people like Cornel West on here, who exclusively announced his candidature.
	For the presidency, because he's attacking the same institutions, the same system, and the same corruption from the left.
	And a figure like Robert F. Kennedy, who's obviously been smeared as an anti-vaxxer, is a member of the Democrat party and is running for the leadership of the Democrat party.
	It's a very narrow trail that you can operate in without being a right-wing conspiracy theorist or a nutjob and crackpot.
	I think privacy is essentially, is that you can't say privacy surely is a right-wing thing or a left-wing thing.
	Privacy should be something we all care about equally.
	Yeah, it's an important part of personal integrity and freedom.
	The construction of these arguments and critiques reminds me of a phrase attributed to me, though I'm not entirely sure that I said it, that when I was poor and talked about inequality, they said I was jealous Well, I hope you remember the sin things I actually said.
	I don't.
	No.
	Well, it's good, though.
	It's good, this thing that I said.
	I said this once, and by God, I'll say it again if I said it at all.
	When I was poor and talked about inequality, they said I was bitter.
	Now that I'm rich and talk about inequality, they say I'm a hypocrite.
	It's just, like, seems to me they don't want me to talk about inequality.
	Find it, it's a meme, it's good.
	Post it in the chat, would you?
	Do us a favour.
	I can't be expected to remember all the things I make up.
	Anyway, this is a bit like that.
	If you're, like, if you, either you're right-wing, or you're, it's just simply, look, you're only allowed to say these things.
	These are things, like, someone like Cornel West is clearly interested in racial equality, economic equality, he's got no axe to grind when it comes to identity, so you can't get him with any of that.
	It's similar to Vandana Shiva, who's more outspoken on the nefarious influence of Bill Gates than anyone that I've ever met, and it's She just has to be ignored and shut down because you can't really, because of her academic credentials and her ability as an orator, as well as the fact that she's an Indian woman, talking about the colonial and imperial impact of corporate forces on her country, which she regards as being no different from the negative impact of the British Empire on her country.
	You can't just dismiss those voices.
	That's why, if you are a person, and you're very welcome here, and we absolutely bloody well love you, the super, inter, MAGA or whatever, start thinking about the kind of alliances that you might afford, because no lesser person than Ben Shapiro said that he would be willing to form alliances with people from BLM and the trans movement in order to have more localised democracy.
	Without localised power, you're not going to get anything.
	What kind of systemic change do you think we're discussing here?
	We, above all else on Rumble, believe in free speech.
	And where there's freedom and speech, you get free speech.
	And where there's free speech, you get freech.
	I think is my catchphrase.
	I'll do a meme about that.
	Here's a graphic on that.
	Freech.
	Where freedom and speech meet, you get free speech.
	Where free speech meets, you get freech.
	Thank you, thank you.
	I'm gonna just accept that graphic now.
	You are, yeah.
	Out there is 60% Al, we call him, who once only put out 60% of the show.
	That's 60% Al.
	We also have Bad Graphics Jack.
	I like these two.
	I'd like to see a little cop show about those guys.
	Yeah, they'd be great.
	Bad Graphics Jack and 60% Al.
	There's Bad Graphics Jack.
	Only half the crime solved.
	Just over half.
	Just over half, sorry.
	Sadly when they filled in the forms it just sort of didn't make sense.
	Too many coloured pens, too many weird fonts, confusing, no consistent style.
	Here are some of your comments on this week in history, an item that we do.
	Lots of people said, please show Boris Yeltsin dancing again.
	A lot of people wanted to see that again.
	Here is Boris Yeltsin doing some dancing.
	Boris Yeltsin, you big, gorgeous man baby.
	He looks really soft.
	From looking at him, he's one of the few adults I imagine having no pubic hair.
	Oh, I see.
	I imagine Yeltsin's pubic hair-free.
	But even if you looked in the very cleft of his bottom, between the taint, between the nutsack and the bum crack, the perineum itself, beautiful.
	Actually quite a soft man.
	I wouldn't mind.
	He's kind of squidgy, isn't he?
	Squidgy fella.
	Like a McDonald's hamburger bun.
	Folds into itself a bit.
	And then puffs right out again.
	Puffs right back out, even 20 years later.
	Boris Yeltsin, like, he can push his cheek even now, down in the coffin.
	He's like a McDonald's hamburger.
	Just comes back out.
	Give him a little prod.
	He just bounces right back, you big, sexy, despot baby.
	Enthusiasm is encouraging.
	I can only imagine he makes love with the same vigour and innocence.
	Yes, I think so.
	You look up at Boris, if you were the undercarriage partner, he's beaming at you.
	So happy.
	Even if you weren't enjoying it, you'd just go along with it.
	Boris is having a nice time.
	Get on with it, Boris.
	How can I stay mad at you?
	Come on, finish then, you big daft sod.
	What comes out?
	A big puff of talc?
	Just like squeezing talcum powder.
	That's it!
	I'm done!
	I'm outta here!
	Don't forget to vote!
	Don't forget to...
	I'm out.
	I'm no historian, Russ, but I think I can fairly accurately say that's exactly what won him the election.
	Just that.
	Solely.
	If someone does a thing like that, you're gonna vote for him.
	Of course you are.
	I'd vote for him.
	Anyone who did that.
	Particularly if there was a sort of a sense that if you didn't vote for him, your life might be in danger.
	Maybe dissenters should think about some of those moves.
	Because we know he's behind Trump in the polls.
	Is he?
	Yep.
	Dance, De Santis.
	I've just danced De Santis.
	Oh, he's already got, yeah, alliteration and everything.
	Dance, De Santis, you finger-licking son of a gun, yeah?
	Like he likes his pudding.
	I'd like to see Boris Yeltsin dancing like that, I'd like to see Trump's dance, and I'd like to see, all the while, in the background, De Santis licking pudding off his fingers.
	Yeah.
	You might as well.
	Yeah, if he kind of endorsed that and like did what kind of Trump does.
	Own it.
	Trump would own it.
	Yeah.
	Is it true?
	Like if he was on Jimmy Kimmel or something and Jimmy Kimmel goes, did you eat pudding with your fingers?
	Like that.
	Trump would go, sure I did.
	Will you do it now?
	Of course.
	And he'd just dip out a big sort of scoop of chocolate pudding, wouldn't he?
	Eat the lot.
	Yeah.
	He's doing himself like a little goatee of chocolate.
	It does sound a bit more serious, I think, doesn't it?
	Yeah, listen, take me seriously.
	I'm a proper governor.
	I've actually done measures that have proved, perhaps in retrospect, around COVID, that were perhaps more appropriate.
	You can say that even if you don't agree with what he's doing elsewhere.
	Shall we have a look at Trump's Gonna Dance now?
	I understand.
	Oh, I let it down.
	He's not really the track.
	Yeah.
	This all actually happened.
	They did YMCA?
	Well, I'm pretty sure that's right.
	I'm pretty sure that's right.
	Well, I want to see some actual YMCA, then.
	Well, obviously not at this point.
	🎵 Young man, there's no need to feel down 🎵 🎵 I said, young man, pick yourself off the ground 🎵
	🎵 I said, young man, cause you're in a new town 🎵 🎵 There's no need 🎵
	Like when he's alone.
	We'll never know, will we?
	We'll never know what he's like when he's alone.
	Where do you go to, my lovely?
	What are you like?
	Huh?
	What are you like?
	Hold on.
	No, you're not alone.
	I'm angry.
	Something like that.
	Something I'm sad.
	Angry.
	I have quite intense emotions.
	Hold on.
	Let's get on with this.
	Yes.
	What are you doing?
	Using your free speech on me?
	I was.
	Well, it's not only you that can do that.
	Show us your Boris moves, Russ.
	I will later.
	Yeltsin dances better than Trump.
	By the way, it's definitely not Russian dancing.
	I think he was influenced by something else.
	We think booze.
	Russell, your voiceovers on these old clips are perfection.
	I'm at work on the night shift and you're cracking us all up.
	Thanks, Bonnie Boo, for that.
	Uh, do you believe in UFOs and aliens?
	Yep!
	And we're gonna get, uh, where's the evidence now?
	Jeremy Corbell will be on the show next week.
	He's coming on and we do a wonderful presentation on UFOs and the implications for humankind.
	Yeah, that'll be up tomorrow.
	You'll be seeing that later, tomorrow.
	Anita Valentin, oh my god, I just had the wildest dream.
	Bye!
	What was it about Nina Valentin and Dickie Dawkins?
	If you've not watched that yet, you can.
	If you're a member of Locals, press the red button, join us on Locals, you get continual... Oh, there's my quote!
	You get continual access to Dickie Dawkins and all of the interviews we do, so press the goddamn red button, why don't ya?
	Here you go, me and my quotes.
	When I was born, I had a heel grip, now I talk about inequality.
	There I am, just staring off.
	Why are these such a serious photo of you?
	That's the right one.
	That's the one for that.
	That's the one for that.
	Serious subject.
	Fresh out of the shower.
	Right.
	I was just thinking about inequality because I've been in the shower.
	A genuine question from Flyguy.
	Why do I need to watch your interview with Dickie Dawkins?
	You don't need to, but you should because it's an interesting discussion on the nature of God.
	him a devout, quite rigid atheist.
	You've got to say so.
	Yeah, he's not going to change his mind now and to be honest I
	was very much had that in mind at the beginning of the conversation. I didn't
	go into my conversation with Richard Dawkins thinking I'm going to change his mind but there was a moment where I
	was looking into his eyes and I felt like he was moved. There was a bit
	where like, I guess if you had yourself tested basically for various, let's call
	it neurodiversity is the term now.
	Because, you know.
	Yeah.
	He's amazing, he's so clever, but he's like, no, I don't think so.
	About everything.
	We're gonna show one... ah, Wednesday live show, we're gonna show one... yesterday?
	Well, you remember that clip you saw yesterday?
	Good, wasn't it?
	Yeah, it was a great clip.
	I thought you overreacted!
	I mean, I like praise!
	I don't think so.
	I like praise as much as the next man!
	But girl?
	Kissing?
	On the lips?
	I just thought he wanted it.
	It did, and I thank you for it.
	I can't stop membering it in my mind from when it happened.
	OK, listen, we've told you enough about the WHO, but if it wasn't enough, here's more.
	The WHO's new powers, if this treaty gets passed, will enable it to enforce border closures, bang you up in your little hovels and houses and homes, and inject you to within an inch of your life at a moment's notice.
	I don't mean to be hysterical.
	Look, Have a look at this.
	This is all facts and it tells you how the WHO is funded.
	Here's the news.
	No, here's the effing bloody well news.
	Thank you for choosing Fox News.
	Here's the news.
	No, here's the fucking news.
	Remember that conspiracy theory that the WHO would be able to close borders and enforce vaccine passports?
	It's actually going to happen.
	So is it worth knowing who funds the WHO?
	I'd say so.
	We are talking today about the WHO's new proposal that they have the ability to impose on your country, wherever you are in the world, because it's the World Health Organization.
	The World Health Organization wants to be able to impose certain restrictions.
	So how did the World Health Organization even get their money and their legitimacy?
	I don't remember voting for them.
	I don't remember being asked if I wanted a World Health Well, apparently we've got one.
	Oh, that's all very lovely for you.
	So who funds them?
	What are their intentions?
	I mean, presumably part of it is really helping people and providing medicines.
	But one way of working out what the intention of an organization is, is looking at where they get their money from under the assumption that people won't give them money if that organization is not going to be advantageous to the economic ends preferred by the donor.
	That's a fair assumption, right?
	Let me know in the chat and the comments.
	So firstly, we'll talk about the WHO and where they get their money.
	Then we'll talk about the legitimacy of this new proposal that they're able to impose on your country, and therefore you, regulations that you didn't vote for.
	Let's have a listen to Margaret Chan, former director of the WHO, explaining how it's funded.
	You ask an excellent question.
	If I tell you, WHO as an organisation, only 30% of my budget I mean, how far into this video are we going to get without saying, it's Bill Gates!
	In the end, Bill Gates is going to turn up, isn't he, with some money?
	But let's let Margaret Chan have her moment.
	Anyone got a few quid?
	Anyone got a few dollars?
	a hat and go around the world to beg for money. Dignified, a hat, begging around the world.
	Anyone got a few quid? Anyone got a few dollars? Anyone got an agenda? And when they give us the
	money they are highly linked to their preferences.
	Okay, here's some money.
	And I've also got some preferences.
	That's how we've always understood the relationships between organizations like the WHO, various national governments, and the corporate world to be.
	That money is funneled in, expectations are funneled out.
	Right?
	Let me know in the chat.
	So, who's top of the list of donors?
	Germany.
	Who's second?
	The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation alone is responsible for 88% of the total amount donated by philanthropic foundations to the WHO.
	Over the years, the billionaire philanthropists Are we still calling them billionaire philanthropists?
	I mean, like, aren't philanthropists?
	They're just doing stuff because of their love of mankind or humankind, right?
	Over the years, the billionaire philanthropists have become the WHO's second biggest donor, making their health agency heavily dependent on their support to keep functioning.
	As Margaret Chan said, they have to go round with their hat out and these people have preferences.
	I wonder what the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation's preference is.
	Global health experts say that while this money is welcome, it gives the Gates and outsized influence and underscores the chronic funding problem the WHO faces, even as it contends with more and more health crises.
	Over 80% of the WHO's funding relies on voluntary contributions, meaning any amount of money given freely by donors, whether member states, NGOs, philanthropic organizations, or other private entities.
	The voluntary contributions are typically earmarked for specific projects or diseases, meaning the WHO cannot freely decide how to use them.
	I mean, that means their whole legitimacy, or at least 80% of the legitimacy of the organisation, is up for question.
	80% of their funding comes from people or organisations, as it just listed, that say, you can have this money if you agree to...
	And we can all fill that in depending on how much we've educated ourselves of the events of the last couple of years, the involvement of the pharmaceutical industry in various health crises, not just the obvious one over the last few years, but the continent of Africa has had all sorts of peculiar stuff inflicted upon it, as well as the nation of India.
	This is an ongoing problem that merely became concentrated and some would say more visible and perhaps even relevant during the pandemic because it affected everybody in ways that became observable, if not reliable.
	The WHO has had to do the bidding of rich donors, not only rich nations in Europe and North America, but also rich philanthropies such as the Gates Foundation, said global health expert Lawrence Gostin.
	Kelly Lee, a professor of public health at Simon Fraser University, who authored a book about the WHO, said, the sheer size of the funds from the Gates Foundation compromises the WHO's independence.
	Whether it's political parties being funded by the donations of corporations and billionaires, or the WHO being funded by billionaires and corporations and philanthropic organisations that many people say are about tax breaks actually and influence and power, shows you that these organisations If you use this platform, YouTube, did you know that YouTube and Google accept the WHO's regulations and recommendations when it comes to things that can be said on this platform?
	That's not no power at all.
	That's the power of censorship, influence.
	It transcends.
	Who has more power?
	If you use this platform, YouTube, did you know that YouTube and Google accept the WHO's
	regulations and recommendations when it comes to things that can be said on this platform? That's not no power at
	all.
	That's the power of censorship, influence. It transcends.
	Who has more power, Google and the WHO or you and your vote?
	Which one of these basically the same individuals shall I...
	Yeah, Google! He who pays the...
	plays the piper, plays the tune, as the old saying goes, she said. Nice.
	There are important questions to be raised about good governance, including the accountability,
	representativeness and legitimacy of having a single foundation be so influential. The
	current system is frankly undemocratic. And yet democracy is the word that people continually
	use when reifying our civilisations, particularly in contrast with some of the civilisations
	that we should be bombing or attacking or otherwise destabilising and usurping and replacing.
	So let's have a look at the WHO's current agenda to impose a treaty that would mean that you would have no control over whether your borders were locked down, certain medications might be made mandatory or the carrying of passports.
	This is from a British newspaper.
	Lockdown measures could be imposed on the UK by the World Health Organization during a future pandemic under sweeping new powers.
	Member states will be obliged to follow the agency's instructions when responding to pandemics, including by introducing vaccine passports, border closures and quarantine measures under a draft update to its regulations.
	Now we have to go around the world as well with our handout begging for money from all sorts of people.
	Mostly though they're pretty legit and this one is going to be fun and enjoyable.
	Stay to the end.
	I'll make it funny.
	I'll put little jokes in there.
	Stay with us.
	Stay with us for this little ad.

	Health Review research why people take supplements.
	The top response was hope.
	They hope, these poor bastards.
	Vitamin and mineral supplements will help overcome a lifetime of poor diet and exercise and they hope they might offset family health issues.
	There is little evidence that the vitamin and mineral supplements we take are anything more than placebo.
	From 22 clinical trials comparing multivitamins to placebo, the health of the multivitamin group was no better than the placebo group.

	A new pandemic treaty under discussion would also force Britain to spend 5% of its health budget on preparing for another virus outbreak.
	I wonder if you fund something, whether it's more or less likely to happen.
	Let me know in the chat.
	Let me know in the comments.
	Some ministers are understood to be alarmed by plans to increase the WHO's powers, enabling its governing body to require countries to hand over the recipe of vaccines regardless of intellectual property rights and to counter misinformation.
	Do you notice that increasingly we are being invited to not trust one another, to loathe one another, to engage continually in conflagration, to believe that people are sort of stupid and ugly and untrustworthy and And that there is a cadre of experts, a technocratic level of government that we should all be yielding to.
	If you believe in yourself, your ability to run your own life, to run your own community, to make your own decisions, why would you participate in the funding of an organisation that clearly has strong relationships with corporate interests that require a profit that they can get by imposing certain regulations?
	Why would we even participate in systems like that?
	Let me know in the chat and the comments.
	And notice that there's a dimension to this that's about social dynamics, about spirituality, about personal awakening, about the necessity to have a population that is ridden with fear and doubt and alert to conflict and totally mistrustful of other people.
	If you felt that you could trust yourself, if you felt that you could trust other people, if you felt that you could run your own life in your own community, why would you need these organizations?
	And of course, I know that WHO have participated in, I imagine, all sorts of beneficial programs that have alleviated all sorts of tensions.
	And in fact, if you're going to have a global body, it should be funded very responsibly and it should be democratic.
	These are just the sort of things that people say, aren't they?
	I'm suggesting that we do them.
	MPs have written to ministers to warn of an ambition evident for the WHO to transition
	from an advisory organisation to a controlling international authority. That's very interesting.
	The many bureaucratic organisations on the basis of their expertise are moving into positions
	of domination where they're able to bypass democracy. The WHO though is not from God
	or the sea or nature or a philosopher. It is funded as we just saw Margaret Chan say
	by corporate entities. They go with their handout and they say to them, what do you
	want us to do? That is a bad model.
	Would you agree?
	Don't you want to decide for yourself?
	Have you been watching what's going on?
	Have you noticed the undue influence of these global corporations?
	Have you noticed the ineptitude of your government?
	Have you noticed that these two entities are ideologically interlocked?
	Have you seen that?
	Let me know in the chat.
	In their letter, seen by the Telegraph, they urge the Foreign Office to block powers that appear to intrude materially into the UK's ability to make its own rules and control its own budgets.
	You can see why there's a rise in nationalism when things like this are happening.
	That nationalism, to some degree, is a response to feeling invaded.
	My personal belief is that these decisions should have nothing to do with racial, religious, gender or sexual identity, but the idea that power is elsewhere and being imposed on you should be rejected by every independent-minded, community-oriented individual on our planet.
	The rule changes have been proposed as part of plans to update the WHO's international health regulations in light of the coronavirus pandemic and establish a new pandemic preparedness treaty.
	One of the things that troubled me most about the pandemic period was the lack of communication, transparency, the surveillance, the censorship, the opportunism and the ineptitude of many of the bodies, organizations and individuals that are in positions of power.
	How do you feel about granting more power to those interests?
	Let me know.
	The treaty was first proposed by world leaders including Boris Johnson in 2021 during the pandemic and was originally designed to improve alert systems, data sharing and the production of vaccines to foster an all-of-government and all-of-society approach.
	Yeah, that sounds terrifying and the people involved are people like Boris Johnson, which is the last thing any of us want.
	Even Boris Johnson doesn't trust Boris Johnson.
	But among 300 proposed amendments to the IHRS are changes to make the WHO's advice binding.
	You can't have binding advice.
	Hey, I've got some advice for you.
	You know, maybe you should look out for someone who's more suitable for you.
	Oh, yeah, I might do.
	I don't know.
	It depends how I feel.
	That's binding!
	Oh, okay.
	Advice shouldn't be binding.
	Okay, we're just thinking of rounding up this demographic and this demographic based on our personal preferences.
	Oh, no, that doesn't seem fair.
	We think everyone should be able to get along and make their own choices.
	Binding!
	And introduce new requirements for countries to recognize it as the global authority on public health measures.
	You're like an egomaniac.
	I'd like you to recognise me as a global authority on public health measures.
	Well, we'll base that on your effectiveness, actually, and also how you're funded.
	Shut up!
	Mind your own business!
	I've got some advice for you!
	You better fuck off!
	Well, I think I'm going to start binding!
	The plan would require member countries to recognise the WHO as the guidance and coordinating authority of international public health response and undertake to follow the WHO's recommendations in their international public health response.
	If passed, the change would mean the WHO could enforce border closures, quarantine measures and vaccine passports on all member countries, including the UK.
	So that means they've got the right to lock you up in your house.
	Let me just have a look.
	Before we sign this treaty, what does it entail to do?
	Oh, nothing really, just to close your borders.
	What, so no one could come in or out?
	And also quarantine measures, so we'd have to stay in our house.
	Mm-hmm.
	And vaccine passports, so everyone would have to... Listen, let me give you some advice.
	Just do what we fucking say.
	Well actually, BINDING!
	They're using bureaucracy and health and safety to legitimise new forms of tyranny that are presenting themselves as all kind of friendly and here to help.
	And if you attack them, they say you're a conspiracy theorist or have got some atavistic throwback nationalistic ideology that don't belong in today's modern world.
	But actually, This is the tyranny now.
	Always the conversations about despots and despotism use the semiotics and image systems of the most recent examples of tyranny and despotism.
	But it won't be like that, plainly.
	In a more technologically advanced version of events, in a more media-savvy, data-oriented tyranny, Everything will be like a kind of soft sell.
	That's what I'm starting to realise.
	They'll be just, oh, hi, do you want some help with your... Yeah, we've just got to do... And before you know it, you're locked in your house with a passport and unable to go anywhere.
	Well, that is despotism!
	Yeah, but we're doing it for a reason.
	Despots always do what they do for a reason.
	A draft of the treaty itself would commit member states to spending 5% of their health budgets plus a proportion of GDP to pandemic preparedness.
	That's your money!
	Esther McVeigh, the former cabinet minister, said, there is rightly growing concern about the WHO's pandemic
	treaty and international health regulations.
	The plans represent a significant shift for the organisation
	from a member-led advisory body to a health authority with powers of compulsion.
	I don't like seeing power and compulsion that close together in a sentence.
	You can't go from a, hey, we're member-led, here's some advice, to compelling power.
	That is like in Star Wars where they're crushed in that thing.
	That is a compelling power.
	You're going to be crushed.
	You don't have any choice.
	Once advice becomes binding, you're in an interesting territory.
	I would say, and I would advise you, this isn't binding, to resist that.
	You can do that if you want to.
	Because it's just advice!
	Hopefully though, the WHO have a good track record and that this mad, egotistical, narcissistic demand for authority is based on experience.
	It's like LeBron James saying, I'll be in charge of basketball because I'm the best at it.
	Something like that.
	Let's have a look.
	This is particularly worrying when you consider the WHO's poor track record on providing consistent, clear and scientifically sound advice for managing international disease outbreaks.
	That's like me taking control of basketball.
	They've got a bad track record.
	Consistent, clear and scientifically sound.
	That is totally what I want.
	That is the bare minimum for an organisation calling itself the World Health Organisation.
	Isn't it?
	Campaigners also expressed concerns about increasing the WHO's role in identifying misinformation, after its experts dismissed the lab-leak Covid origin theory, only to later accept it remains on the table.
	Hmm.
	Yes, it does remain on the table, because it's not been wiped down properly, like the Wuhan lab itself.
	Molly Kingsley, co-founder of the Us For Them campaign group, said we should all be concerned about the WHO being ordained as an arbiter of pandemic truth, especially given its poor record during the pandemic.
	Such is its claim that COVID was definitely zoonotic in origin and its April 2020 denial of the role of natural immunity in protecting against infection.
	I wonder if what Margaret Chan said about the way that it's funded and those two errors have any kind of relationship with one another.
	Who could ever possibly work that out?
	Not you.
	You or me, we're just stupid people that need unelected, corporate-funded bodies to tell us what to do.
	And thank God you're gonna have no choice, because what would you do with your choice?
	You'd just mess it up.
	You're not intelligent enough to make choices for yourself.
	You're not part of the limitless oneness that underwrites all reality.
	You're not You're not capable of remetabolizing yourself into glory.
	You're not capable of putting your past behind you and moving forward into a glorious new future based on love, pragmatism, rationalism, democracy, sharing, overcoming former prejudices and errors in order to create a better new world based on the technological advances and spiritual awakening that we are currently undergoing.
	You are!
	All of that was just rhetoric.
	You can do it.
	I believe in you and I do not trust them.
	But that's just what I think.
	Let me know what you think in the chat.
	See you in a second!
	Thank you for using FoxyWoods3.
	Good day.
	No.
	Here's the fucking news!
	The world is a complicated place.
	It's difficult to follow the regulations and the rules.
	It's difficult to locate where power really resides.
	Football is not like that.
	Football is nice.
	And what a day it is to be a football fan, and what a time it is to be a West Ham United fan.
	We are recording this yesterday, so at this point I already will know the results of West Ham's historic match against Fiorentina in the Europa Conference League final.
	And this happened because we held a lovely West Ham United party and Eva, It was a magnificent and historic night and West Ham rightly triumphed against Fiorentina.
	Or it was a night of corruption, historic transgressions, bribed officials.
	What's it like being future you at the moment?
	How are you feeling?
	Future me is so awakened, so evolved, and let's face it, so bloody sexy.
	How do you feel about past you, at this point?
	I don't even recognise that idiot anymore, the stuff that he stood for.
	But what I thought was weird is you at that party, taking your top off, as a whole fan, to celebrate or commiserate so strongly, even to take off your top because you were so happy, the West End one, or take off your top in rage!
	No one will ever know.
	But we filmed it and captured it and your dirty protest to celebrate the result for good or for real.
	At this point do I need to do these things?
	That's what I'm trying to say, yeah, but you've got to do the things that I'm suggesting you do.
	Let's have a look at us celebrating or commiserating. Look.
	Oh the nerves, the pressure in front of those West Ham fans.
	It's just a penalty.
	It's a penalty.
	Push it away, good boy.
	I think that is a penalty. That should be given.
	Yes!
	Oh, I'll stop and ask you what was coming there.
	Tadjana Vipala.
	Yes!
	Good boy, good boy.
	Potential game changers on the bench, they can have a chance here.
	But it makes all the difference.
	Into the corner it works.
	And they've hit that quickly.
	Laviola.
	All the way.
	Oh, oh, oh!
	Yes!
	No, they're going to come on.
	If they kick this off, you're a genius, you know that.
	Yes, yes, yes!
	It's a penalty!
	Yes!
	Come on!
	Thank you.
	Right, there you go.
	But now we're back to past me, and I don't know what's happened, so my mood will be inappropriate.
	But there's loads of things for us to talk about elsewhere.
	Like, you know, we could talk about my feelings of anticipation.
	I feel like... Hold on a minute, let me engage with it.
	Keep thinking like West Ham will lose.
	I think that's what West Ham do.
	If you're an English person, you know what it's like to be an England fan.
	What being an England fan is like is disappointing.
	I wonder if England are closer to West Ham or Tottenham.
	Like, as in, England are not really like West Ham, because West Ham, in our half-hearts, don't ...believe that we deserve to win things.
	Right.
	Whereas, like, as an England fan, you think, why are we not doing well... Right.
	...in this World Cup?
	Like, Tottenham.
	Like, Tottenham and their new Antebedean overlord, Postalo... Can you say his name?
	Postacoglu.
	Postacoglu, isn't it?
	Postacoglu.
	Did you learn it when he was in Scotland?
	Yeah, I mean he's just won the treble with Celtic, hasn't he?
	Yeah, is that when you learned it?
	Oh yeah, I didn't know before then.
	And did you see him, have you seen him do stuff and hear him talk and stuff?
	Yeah, it's lovely hearing him talk, because it's like watching, I know this is going to sound awful, but it's like watching someone like Alf Ramsey off Hoe and Away or something, there's a reference.
	If you thought us talking about football on this platform where our audience is primarily American was negligent, Let's hear some of Gareth's insights on the cast of Home and Away in the late 80s.
	They've just got a different kind of tone about them.
	I like Australians.
	I love the whole culture, and I say culture, whatever it is they do instead of culture.
	I love that about Australia, and I like this guy's sort of, I like his way, what I've seen of him.
	I thought because of his name, Postacoglu, that he was from somewhere like the Balkans.
	I didn't realise he was Australian until about six months ago.
	Yeah, that's what I thought.
	But I like how... I really like him.
	Now, I watched a video about him.
	Apparently, he's a tactical genius.
	He uses inverted fullbacks.
	They play very high up the field.
	They had about 75% possession over the SPL season.
	And even in their games in Europe, in which they lost every game in the group stages of Champions League, apparently they play in an encouraging way.
	And you know when people break down data, like, they, you know, expected goals and all that sort of stuff?
	Yeah.
	Like, and then it's, you know, reality is different from the prediction of reality, which was what makes this a difficult episode of the show.
	He's like, like, his teams do better than expected.
	Like, so the assumption is, is if he gets to work with the players at Tottenham, he's gonna create results.
	Wow.
	But Tottenham have a long history of weird managers that don't want to, like, work out.
	I know.
	who proudly showed the fans his travel card like they thought that that would be what made people like
	him I've got it, he was Dutch wasn't he?
	I've got a travel card he was the response to Arsenal getting Arsene Wenger
	like, I get it it was like they were sort of copying Arsenal
	let's get some weird sort of academic guy Yeah!
	But they've got a French one, we'll get a Dutch one.
	And I've got a travel card.
	Ooh, I hope this works.
	Cos Arsene Wenger, he was like, uh, are you all gonna eat food?
	We've seen people like Ray Parler, guys, he makes us chew our food a hundred times.
	Yeah.
	Like people, British players, all confused.
	Yeah, but then when Spurs did eat foreign food, there was Lasagne Gate, wasn't there?
	That was under Martignolles, I think, wasn't it?
	It was around that time that Spurs got a dicky belly under the lasagna.
	Gave away a Champions League spot because they lost to West Ham United.
	ABB was another one, wasn't he?
	Yeah, ABB was one of that when they were doing Chelsea managers.
	Yeah, that's it.
	That was their Chelsea manager.
	That was under Tim Sherwood as manager.
	Oh, it was Sherwood, wasn't it?
	It was under Sherwood, that brief.
	Well, I think he was promoted from the youth team, eh?
	So, Posta Coglu, once I get used to saying his name, are Spurs going to sell Harry Kane?
	Well, Madrid want him, don't they?
	Apparently.
	I don't want him to go Real Madrid.
	I do want him to go.
	Why?
	Because I think he deserves it.
	I want it for him.
	I want him to actually win something, and he will win something in Spain.
	He'll win La Liga.
	He'll probably win the league.
	I think the way that Madrid's side, it looks very promising for the future.
	They've got some great youngsters, haven't they?
	I think they want Mbappe, obviously, if they can, but if they can't prize him away, Kane would be amazing.
	I hope he goes.
	You don't want Kane to stay in the Prem?
	I just think for him, like, he has been Brilliant.
	I mean, and he seems really nice.
	A lovely man.
	A nice man.
	Decent fellow.
	He's done enough for Spurs, and he's done enough for England, and I think he deserves... I know he's obviously made a lot of money, but he deserves to win something, surely.
	If he goes to Manchester United, he's still not going to win anything anyway, so what's the point?
	He's not going to win the league, honestly, is he?
	No.
	He's not going to win the league, he's not going to win the Champions League.
	No.
	He might win the FA Cup or League Cup, but let's let him go to Madrid.
	This show is called Football Is Nice because we are continually observing that what really football is, is nice.
	It entails so many beautiful things.
	Rivalry undertaken in good spirit.
	Competition but without malevolence.
	That it creates community, togetherness, fun, humour, buoyancy.
	But sometimes football obviously creates a lot of Madness and intensity.
	This, I think, is an interesting and somewhat embarrassing story because David Beckham, perhaps still maybe the biggest football brand, maybe you could say, has employed his former Class 92 mate, Phil Neville, to run Inter Miami.
	Good, good name.
	Because I always think, when a football team has a name that's like, you know, say Aston Villa.
	Yeah.
	There's no reason for the word... I don't even know if there's a place called Aston... I mean, it's weird, isn't it?
	Yeah.
	Like, why are they even called that?
	It doesn't make sense.
	And then, oh, like Sheffield Wednesday.
	It's because they played on the Wednesday and United played on the Saturday or whatever.
	But it's a weird thing to be called Sheffield Wednesday.
	Yeah.
	Like, West Ham United.
	Okay, first, really, just called United.
	Some teams are put in with, like, rovers.
	Like, if you're Blackburn, rovers.
	We rove.
	We rove around.
	There's a weird thing today about Wolverhampton Wanderers.
	We wander.
	But wandering and roving, they're not, like, attributes that strike.
	What are you doing?
	Just wandering.
	It's too poetic.
	Yeah.
	Cos that's the last thing you want your players to do on the pitch, isn't it?
	You're wandering around!
	We're trying to have a compact... Stop it!
	Posta Logu!
	Coglou?
	Coglou, yeah.
	Posta Coglou's in charge now, he wants a high press, he wants inverted wing-backs, making sure you get possession right out of the field, didn't we?
	Yeah.
	Oh, sorry, I just saw... I thought I'd see a Daffodil.
	Get... Stop wondering!
	Or roving.
	That's a bit more intention to it, at least.
	It seems like when they were naming... Yeah, Argyle.
	That don't mean Plymouth Argyle, who Leon supports.
	That don't even mean anything!
	Argyle.
	That would be some sort of Celtic word for saying it.
	Some sort of Celtic word.
	Down there in Cornwall, they might as well be Irish.
	Like, down there, they might, like, I'm no offence, I'm saying they don't think they're English.
	Right.
	You know, there's bits of, like Welsh, they don't want to be in Britain.
	Scottish, absolutely hate England.
	Irish, it was never ours in the first place, shouldn't have nicked it, it was a reprehensible crime against humanity.
	But then, even within it, when you get into it, you start to recognise localisation is the answer.
	There we go.
	I thought we'd get to this at some point.
	Decentralisation.
	But you're calling your club Inter Miami.
	That's a gangster move, because I reckon it's to get the Latin population involved and to evoke the image of Inter Milan.
	Yeah, I mean, that decision's not come from their past, has it?
	It's just like, what's the best name that we can come up with that, as you say, will work for us, kind of, financially, I guess?
	You would never call them the Miami Wanderers.
	We wander around Miami trying our best at life.
	Although Phil Neville, until recently, the manager, the coach of Inter Miami, he would do better with a team like that because he looks like someone from the 1950s.
	Specifically, he looks like...
	Steptoe.
	I don't know, he looks like a rag and bone man from 1950s England.
	That'll be the quote for the papers.
	No, but I mean to say that he'd be better off with a team called the Wanderers or the Rovers or Albion.
	I think it would be a better fit.
	Not Inter Miami.
	No.
	I'm amazed that it kind of happened, to be honest.
	Because they're talking about players like, they're trying to get Messi to into Miami.
	They want Messi, and then when they're looking at managers, they go to Phil Neville.
	No disrespect to Phil Neville, who's a great player for United, great player for Everton.
	Done good with the Lionesses, didn't he?
	He did alright.
	Did he?
	Did he not do good?
	He didn't do that well, to be honest.
	I can't tell if people are good managers.
	It wasn't a great record.
	It's the hardest thing to know if someone's going to be a good manager.
	They know they're going to be a good manager for long.
	It's a hard thing.
	Yeah.
	You know once the Athletic ran a bunch of simulations or something and they said, actually, it don't make any difference.
	Other than total geniuses like Guardiola or Clough or Jock Stein or someone, you might as well not bother.
	Well, that was the article, was it?
	You might as well not bother.
	You might as well not bother by the athletics or stuff, anyway.
	So, like, Phil Neville is into Miami Wanderers.
	He's lovely, Phil Neville, of course he is.
	But in this interview, you can see how football is currently, in this moment at least, not nice.
	It's pressurised him.
	And also, it's interesting, because he's, I think, playing out.
	Like, anyone who played under Alec Ferguson has to have in their sort of Yeah.
	DNA as they transition from player to coach. Yeah, what Fergie was like, but Fergie he was a
	One-off he was an impreture. He was an OG. He was a person that was able in press conferences go
	I'm never talking to like didn't he just saw someone talk to the BBC anymore you individual journalists
	You can fuck off like through things these players Booted teacups air dryer. He's a lot of accessories. Yeah,
	you're like a Barbie Yeah, I'm a teacup. I'm driving a little pink car. It's Japs
	dad's leg But he's always got an accessory and I feel Neville
	Is he gonna be able to pull it off when he's got the accessories?
	I think you got no accessories baby. That's what happens when an American sports journalist challenges Phil Neville
	I think you'll look you know what you always look for things to be negative about Franco. So
	So, uh...
	Bye.
	We won't fight.
	That thing where you can tell with managers when there's of pressures gone, it's too much now
	This is just this is his final press conference. Yeah, this is just pure intensity at this moment isn't it? His eyes
	aren't They're not in a good place. It's just must be so hard
	Yeah, I know the sort of getting sacked and things aren't going well and your mate David Beckham owns the tape
	That must add the pressure on.
	I hate that.
	That must do.
	I don't like you owning a football team and getting me in as manager.
	Right, actually, shall we do that?
	I'd like that.
	Let's do it!
	But I won't sack you.
	Oh, he says that now!
	Well, we're... Ten games in, we've only won one.
	We're the Buckinghamshire Whoopsie Daisies.
	It's a low-pressure gig.
	Like, um, you know I've done my five-a-side.
	Did you do it?
	I was meant to ask you about it.
	I'll tell you about it after we finish filming.
	Jesus.
	He wants to morph into Ferguson at this point, doesn't he?
	Speaking.
	Are you going to interrupt?
	Can I finish speaking?
	Okay, because I don't want to interrupt your question.
	Okay, so don't want to interrupt mine.
	across that desk and savage that person then he wants to morph into Ferguson at
	this point yeah yeah and I and have the sort of power the power to sort of shut
	people down but like it's horrible to feel that vulnerable I felt it most of
	my life really speaking are you gonna interrupt can I finish speaking okay
	cuz I don't interrupt your question okay so don't interrupt mine show some
	respect right good You've made a stand there.
	Everything's OK.
	And he's added a swear word as well.
	I've sworn.
	Which I think he immediately regrets.
	I've upped the ante.
	I've said fuck.
	And one of the sponsors there is Baptist Health.
	It's got a sort of vaguely Christian connotation, so I don't know how it's going to be good down there.
	I will say, there was a big pause as well.
	It's not like the journalist, like, he wasn't, like, mid-sentence.
	There was a massive pause.
	Let's have a look at that pause again and see if the journalist... It's a huge pause.
	Can we go back a little bit?
	It's like, how big's the pause?
	No, no, you'd have to go further back than that.
	Yeah, let's see the pause.
	Things to be negative about Franco, so, uh...
	We won five... That's a fairly big pause.
	It's a pretty big pause.
	It's a five-second pause.
	That's a five-second pause.
	Right, that's the rules.
	Five-second pause.
	You're allowed to interrupt.
	Right, listen, watch this, Gareth.
	I think we're doing pretty well at Stay Free Media.
	It's obviously risky to talk about football in the middle of a show that's mainly for an American audience, but... The thing that I'd say about... Gareth!
	I couldn't even wait five seconds!
	I couldn't even wait!
	I'll try again, hold on.
	It is risky in the middle of a show that's broadcast on Rumble.
	It's primarily aimed at a sort of a politicised American audience, but I say that this content will take off.
	What I'd say, Russell, is that... How dare you!
	How dare you!
	That's too much!
	I feel awkward!
	I felt awkward in the time I started to blush!
	Yes, I noticed that.
	I wondered what that was about for a moment.
	I was blushing because of the dead hair!
	They're there, Phil!
	Right.
	Your name should be your modality.
	Phil.
	Phil!
	Can I finish speaking?
	Are you going to interrupt?
	I understand.
	Now, for God's sake, don't lose your thread.
	That's what I'll say.
	And then he says, I allowed you to do your question, will you allow me to do mine?
	But yours isn't a question.
	Don't mistake a question and a statement, like your brother mistakes weekends for mini-retirements.
	Make sure you stay on track.
	Don't needlessly swear in front of a brand that's named itself after a particularly religious branch of Christianity, and don't then forget what you were going to say.
	What's wrong with it?
	It's almost like you're going to get sacked in the morning.
	Can I finish speaking?
	Okay, because I don't want to interrupt your question.
	Okay, so don't interrupt mine.
	Show some fucking respect.
	So, sorry for the language.
	I'm sorry.
	really nice person yeah oh no he's a really nice person Yeah.
	We're only mucking about.
	Yeah, of course we are.
	This is within the context of football.
	This is not about Phil Neville as a person.
	You're lovely.
	Also, he looks quite angry and I reckon he'll kick our heads in.
	It's quite hard, like, when he's angry.
	I wonder how Phil Neville feels about his brother.
	Because his brother, of the Nevilles, you would say the pecking order goes Gary.
	Gary.
	You would think so, wouldn't you?
	Do you think if there's only two people, it's worth having a peck in order?
	Can't you both peck together?
	I don't know.
	Just both have a peck.
	Who would you choose?
	Go on.
	Gary.
	Right.
	Like, Gary, he's amazing on Sky, he's the Hanson of his generation, he reinvented punditry, he made it intelligent.
	Hotels.
	He came in after Grey and Keys and made it a bit more, sort of, acceptable and cooler, I suppose.
	He's got the hotels, hasn't he?
	He's got that hotel where they didn't put on enough, when I say enough, any fanfare for my arrival when I stayed at it that time with a fantasy that I developed on the journey to the hotel that it would happen.
	That's the one blemish, though, on his CV.
	Otherwise, perfect, except maybe that game against Everton towards the end of his career where he sort of played a bit too long.
	But other than that, unblemished.
	I really love Gary Neville.
	Right, so there is a Beckham order, isn't it?
	There's a Beckham order over at Miami and you ain't in it, Phil.
	In, er... Sorry, what was the question?
	Ask me the question again, please, Franco.
	Oh, no!
	Please ask me that question that I told you a minute ago to not ask.
	Please do ask me that.
	Listen!
	Show some fucking respect.
	Don't do that.
	Sorry for swearing.
	Do do that again.
	We've just got some breaking news by now, because this is pre-recorded.
	It's broken and you're all aware of it, but nonetheless, for us, it's breaking.
	Past you, this is breaking news.
	Past me!
	You're going to love this past me!
	Messi is going to Inter Miami!
	Wow.
	Wow.
	Amazingly.
	They said he might go back to Barcelona, but that was a stalking horse to get his wages up for Inter Miami, of course.
	Yeah, well at least he's not gone to Saudi Arabia.
	Another bit of breaking news.
	Jude Bellingham has signed for rail for 103 million euros.
	I wanted him in the print, but at least he's not a city.
	I'd rather he went to a rail than city.
	So now do you want Cain to go?
	Cain, Bellingham, English Revolution at Real Madrid?
	What, do they get Rice?
	Oh, I think he's going to Arsenal, isn't he?
	Is it for sure?
	Well, not for sure, but, you know.
	Well, okay.
	Hang on, where would you prefer Rice to go?
	Arsenal or Madrid?
	Oh yeah, Madrid.
	Then you don't have to go through it.
	It's just over there.
	Yeah, it's just over there.
	And it's almost honourable.
	It's a bit like for me with Jared Bowen.
	I can support Jared Bowen all I like because we never play West Ham.
	So I can just enjoy Jared Bowen in the Premier League.
	If it was an ex-lover who you still hold a candle for... And you're saying he's not?
	It's better that the ex-lover goes to live In France! And you don't ever see him again!
	Right.
	Rather than, they're in the next house with their new lover, who's the equivalent of Real Madrid, like, no, United or
	something.
	Yeah.
	You don't want that, do you?
	No. The next house, or the same house, that happens sometimes, doesn't it?
	I can't have that.
	No.
	Same house?
	Well, you know, sometimes, anyway, it's not for the football chat, but...
	What do you mean? You've been in one of your confusing barbecues, where you've ended...
	What's happened to you now?
	Some of you will be aware that Gareth went to a barbecue that became confusing and fart-laden and three hours long.
	A fart-laden, three-hour festival of farts where Gareth couldn't get out involved too many blankets being laid down, didn't it?
	Well, it's probably the first barbecue of many.
	It's the summertime, isn't it?
	It's going to be one every couple of nights, isn't it?
	You're going to be farting your way through July, my friend.
	Farting your way through the clothes season.
	Oh, it's been another hundred million trains for...
	Well, a bit of mustard on that.
	Yeah, what I'll do is I'll mix the mayo and ketchup together.
	Sorry.
	Good technique.
	I played for you.
	I know my children think it's, like, ingenious, and I tell them that it is as well.
	They're pleased of it.
	Yeah, I played Five Aside then.
	I went to that Five Aside.
	Well done.
	I'm really proud of you for going.
	It was a lot of pressure, mate.
	Go on.
	Right.
	So where, go on, set the scene.
	Who are these fellas?
	The lads that I'm in recovery with.
	Yeah.
	So that is organized by sort of men in recovery, which, listen, just to give us sort of an overview without blowing anyone's cover, is it's like includes sort of men that are sort of quite hard and that have been inside.
	Right.
	Stuff like that.
	But it also includes men that are very tender and sort of sweet.
	Which category do you fit into?
	Sweet.
	I like it with him.
	And our general cut, and that, I like it with him.
	No, they're all my friends.
	Shall we start a mini-league over there, lads?
	What do you think?
	Listen, oi, watch it.
	Now, sorry, what was I saying about it?
	What was the question?
	Um, like, um, like, what, yeah, so like, I'm actually more close to the category of the folks
	that have been inside, as it turns out.
	But that is in the context of just a general chat and me providing them with emotional sucker and support.
	What that's not in the context of is barreling challenges!
	And it's five a side as well, there's too many people on each pitch.
	What?
	And what was bad and unfortunate is that I was on the worst side.
	That's a shame for your first one.
	It is.
	I was on the demonstrably worst side.
	Every single player of theirs, even though I'll take this, I was the worst of all players.
	Were you?
	Even though I scored, got an assist, did a backheel, and two of my errors definitely led to goals.
	Directly to goals.
	Like, I make an error.
	What I notice is a lot of people don't seem as...
	When I'm playing football, I now know, because having done it, I'm playing it like Shelley or Larkin.
	I'm like a poet.
	I don't mean in my ability to administer a poetic... I mean my inner life.
	I'm thinking, I'm fretting, I'm freaking out out there.
	A lot of people, they're making mistakes, they don't care, they're just carrying on.
	There's a mistake, there's a mistake, doesn't matter.
	Me, I'm on a razor's edge.
	I realize now that I don't like to be in situations where I'm incompetent because I don't like that feeling.
	I don't like the feeling of exposed... I don't like being exposed to my incompetence and ineptitude and total lack of power.
	Even though, ultimately, that is the deepest reality there is, universally.
	It's a total lack of power in everything that's meaningful, like, you know, the affairs of the heart, the inevitability of death, the inability to prevent serious things happening in your life.
	That's closer to reality.
	You have nothing.
	But we distract ourselves from that, don't we?
	And you can't distract yourself.
	My game of football!
	But what football, for me, is it concentrated that.
	It brought it into sort of like, you know like, like they say, like something like uranium, it weighs more.
	Like sort of, it's like something, imagine something that's the size of a ball bearing, but weighs as much as a planet.
	That's what it felt like out there.
	Like, everything had been sort of concentrated into this dense, dark matter of personal ineptitude.
	And like, my whole time I was thinking, oh no, right.
	Also, by the way, like, I wish I was playing, I wish it was a film.
	If I play again, and I think I should, what I'll do is I'll pretend I'm in a film about a very confident, inept footballer.
	That's what I'll be.
	I'm very, Vocal, and confident, and in it, and I don't care.
	Yeah.
	That's what I'll be playing the part of.
	Right, so I'll just be like, uh, I'll just be like, COME ON TO ME, I'M OPEN!
	I'M OPEN DOWN THE LINE, PLAY OFF THE WALL!
	But, and I don't care.
	Yeah.
	But what happens after that, is I make a dreadful mistake.
	You have to get over feeling like you're looking quite silly.
	You have to get over that.
	Because that's the first, if you go, if you go into that game thinking, I'm gonna look really silly doing this.
	Yeah.
	It's not gonna go well for you.
	Don't think about that.
	Just you can't.
	You cannot do that.
	Self-consciousness.
	Right.
	Self-obsession.
	These are the roots of it.
	Now, I had a technique from Nick Orton.
	Like, I did tapping on it before I did it.
	We should have been passing, not tapping.
	I'm like, oh, it weren't a tapping, it was a volley. Half volley. But nonetheless, I
	like, I, um, when I was, uh, like, I did some tapping before, because I was like, look,
	I'm actually unduly worried about this. And I know that, like, it's one of those things
	that if I actually just didn't care, it wouldn't matter.
	Like, no one else would care for me if I didn't care. And I know that, like, I think it was
	Michael Ball, the, uh, show business West End star, that said, like, he got off ill
	with, I think, tuberculosis?
	No, glandular fever.
	That's right, that's what it was.
	Why do you know all these quotes from Michael Ball?
	I know a lot about Michael Ball, and I know even more about Michael Crawford.
	I know a lot about people who west their musicals.
	Michael Crawford, The Phantom, Michael Ball sung that song.
	I don't know why, it's stupid.
	But like Michael Ball, anyway, he got glandular fever.
	He had to take a bunch of time off and he got nervous.
	He thought, I can't do show business anymore, it's too nerve-wracking.
	Then he did do a performance that was on ITV and he said he watched it back and he said he couldn't tell at all that he was nervous from watching it.
	Oh, it's meaningless. No point being nervous.
	And it made him better. He sort of tricked himself into not worrying anymore.
	So that's what I'll try and do.
	That's good.
	With the tapping. If you stop caring, what does it matter?
	What does it matter? You're making it matter through your caring.
	Yes.
	For God's sake.
	Anyway, and I bet there's something deeper about that.
	Anyway, I, um...
	So the moral of this story is be more Michael Ball.
	Be a lot more like Michael Ball when you play football and stop caring.
	Stop caring so much.
	Anyway, I did some tapping, and Nick Ortner, a Spurs fan, an Argentina fan, said, like, um, like he does tapping, on Tapping Solutions, like, he goes, what are you trying to achieve with this?
	Because, you know, you're not trying to be a footballer.
	Same as, like, you know, say I do Brazilian jiu-jitsu.
	I'm, like, at that, I'm at an appropriate level of effort.
	This is just a hobby.
	I'm not trying to win anything, you know what I mean?
	It's all cool.
	Um, but like it doesn't for me have the same cultural weight and impact and it's not so infused with personal wounding and meaning.
	I think what it meant to us as young, I don't know, teenagers or even before that, I remember being at primary school and not being good at football and it was my entire identity and it defined my progression through primary school hugely to a point where I thought by the time I start secondary school I'm going to be Better at football and I'm going to know about football because I thought that's my way through school.
	So it is important, certainly.
	We're going to ask you a question now.
	Think carefully before you answer it.
	Are you good at football?
	And the answer to this question is going to define your whole life in every way.
	Um, no.
	Well, I'm afraid that your life's going to be not very good.
	Like you, at football.
	So like, you know, all of that has been carried.
	Anyway, he goes, Nicola goes, what's your objective?
	And I goes, really?
	He goes, you're only attending this match.
	You're attending, you're showing up, and then what are you going to do?
	Play.
	Attend and play.
	That's all you're doing.
	Go then, play.
	And I realised actually, that's all life is at all.
	Just show up to where you're meant to be, and then play.
	It doesn't need to be full of resistance.
	It doesn't need to be fretful.
	I really sort of realised that.
	And that, as an observation, was helpful.
	The degree to which I was able to do that is where there's a discussion because I felt
	like I was in a crucible of self-consciousness where I was being confronted with a thousand
	things at once.
	It was like a thousand therapy sessions simultaneously.
	It did so many things to me.
	Well look, I'm going to join you at some point.
	Not in a, oh, I'll laugh at brand way.
	I hope not.
	Not when I've built a football club for you to manage.
	No, it'll be a nice, expanding experience, I would suggest.
	The Buckinghamshire Ponzi's.
	What I want is to not care.
	Yeah.
	I think that comes with time.
	Also, I think that, you know, getting used to the group and all those kind of things, it will become more about looking forward to participating than, like, being anxious about how you're going to perform.
	Yeah.
	So keep on going with it, Ross.
	Keep on going, because you have to continue to progress yourself in numerous ways in this life, or do you?
	This is a fantastic little football story.
	Napoli won Serie A after 33 years and like a couple of years ago when they didn't win Serie A, the notorious Napoli ultras, that means the sort of football fan contingency that are, in English football, a football hooligan is a sort of a bloke down a pub, right?
	That's what they sort of basically are.
	Yes.
	Like, you know, they've not got a secondary identity, you know, maybe they work in a trade, or what about sometimes you're surprised why they work in a city, or something like that, you know, like they work in finance.
	This is their outlet.
	But in the Napoli Ultras, it's like actually that bit of their identity is backed by, I would suggest from the aesthetics of this video, Criminality.
	Quite serious criminality.
	And given that it's in the south of Italy, and I don't want to do any racial profiling here, but I feel like that the Cosa Nostra has a relatively strong presence in the region.
	Seems like what's backing up the... It's not like, oh, then we'll drop down the booze hour to have a pint and a pie and a bit of a tear up.
	It's a bit more like what they actually have is a sort of membership of a sort of a criminal organization. Yeah, and the ultras are like, I
	mean, they're a big part of the crowd, they like have their own section.
	Yeah, this is the bit where the ultras are. Yeah, I mean, it comes across that way. I don't know.
	Where the ultras? Yeah, it's a big part of Italian football, the ultras still.
	Yeah, I know, because like, there's this thing where Paolo, like, where West Ham fans went to see Paolo De Canio in
	Rome, I think, and the ultras, like, picked him up, and like, they've
	taken him around and picked up some of the West Ham sort of fans, and like, was he, like,
	In English football, it's like the Hooligan fraternity might be a firm, like the ICF or the Chelsea Headhunters or whatever.
	And, but it all seems somewhat less formal than this.
	And a couple of years ago, when Napoli didn't win Serie A, they broke into the manager's car, which I think is a Fiat 500, nicked his CDs, which was a bit weird, even a couple of years ago, he still had CDs.
	Spalletti, isn't he?
	He's old school.
	He's old school, is he?
	And they nicked his steering wheel, and now because he's won, he was a Fiat Panda, now because he's won Serie A, they said he could have it back.
	And they bought it back for him in a ceremony, and here it is.
	Look at the ultras though, look how they're dressed and everything, it's pretty mental.
	It's pretty mad they're still in Balaclava.
	And also it's quite funny that like they kept it so it's sort of almost done in good humor even
	then but it was an actual break into a car. Yeah. It's weird that. Really weird. That is culturally
	fascinating and I don't think it's that bad. It's...
	It's difficult to know, isn't it?
	It's funny, isn't it?
	We'd need to know the kind of complexities they're involved in.
	Well, he seems all right.
	They're cuddling.
	Yeah.
	I guess it's... Obviously, there's an element to which this is a sanctioned element of... I said element twice there.
	It's a sanctioned part of the game.
	Yeah.
	If you've got a scene where literally the title-winning manager is kind of...
	You know.
	Yeah.
	into what looks like a dressing room to return his steering wheel and his CDs. It's pretty
	Yeah.
	fascinating and mental and it's part of the culture. Look, if, imagine for a moment if
	this was something that was taking place in a, inverted commas, more exotic nation. Imagine
	if this was happening in Kashmir or something and there was some organisation and everyone
	was wearing dress that made them identifiably not European or whatever. I think you'd go,
	oh, fuck it, no, that's sort of cool. And you would accept that there's different customs
	and different traditions.
	Well, it's sort of like that with the ultras, it appears.
	They've got this tradition where they'll break in your car, nick some of your stuff, as a sort to incentivise you to perhaps win Serie A within the next couple of years.
	Which they did do by a big margin.
	Because obviously the connotations of that is, we can get in your car and nick your stuff
	and if you don't win Serie A, we might get in your house and mess you up.
	My mate Brian McDermott, who's Director of Football at Hibbs, he said you've got to go once.
	He goes, but do leave early and get in a car and have a car waiting to go home.
	He says it's an unbelievable experience to go to see Napoli and Naples.
	Have you been?
	I've been to Naples, I didn't get to see a game.
	Have you seen any?
	Yeah, I've seen a few Italian games.
	You go early a lot and you talk Italian, don't you?
	I do a bit, yeah.
	Yeah, I love, I love, I mean it's, I will say, there is a more, to me, personally, a
	more intimidating vibe about it.
	Is it?
	Do you think that's because you're foreign, or do you think that's because it's more intimidating?
	There's a section called the hooligan section.
	The stadiums are still very old school in Italy.
	Very, you know, concrete and mad.
	Yeah, that it feels, almost because of the imagery that you, you know, remember from the time, that it kind of Harks back to that and you kind of feel awkward summit and
	the ultra presence is there definitely I know your experiences in watching Italian football. I
	mean a lot look I love gonna watch Italian football, but yeah, it's different
	I would say it's different to the Premier League. Oh, I got different. Well, what about with Luton? That's gonna be
	good There you go. That's gonna spice up our lives a little bit
	of Luton in the Premier League. Yeah, I'm looking forward to it
	I'm excited about it.
	All right, so it's nearly time to wrap up the show, but now we've got to do the final predictions.
	Oh my God, you won by sort of a romp in the end.
	It was like a Man City arsenal.
	I was ahead for a minute and then like choked right at the last minute because you got two correct results and four...
	Correct scores.
	Let's have a look at that table again just to see.
	This is wide open to corruption, like Syria, because you went away and did your results alone, didn't you?
	Didn't you?
	I did all my predictions before the games happened.
	That's really the only thing a prediction requires, isn't it?
	The only time a prediction becomes less valid is when you make it after an event.
	Like now, when West Ham have either already won or lost their conference to Fiorentina, or against them.
	Quick prediction for Man City in Milan.
	It's impossible to conceive of anything other ...than a thrusting, priapic, mighty, red-cocked Haaland sort of smashing, pillorying through them, battering down Inter Milan.
	Foregone conclusion.
	Foregone conclusion.
	I think.
	Inevitable.
	Inevitable.
	Almost worth not bothering to do it.
	I'll watch it, but it won't... and I... yeah, I'd love Inter to win it.
	Yeah, I would.
	Still at this point, you still want to deny Man City something?
	Yeah, I heard Guardiola.
	And maybe, do you know what would happen if they lost?
	I'd probably then feel guilty and sad.
	Because Guardiola is nice, and they're all nice young men.
	I saw him do an interview this week where he said there'll be a lot of people not wanting us to win.
	And I thought, yeah, I'm one of those.
	I'm those!
	But then I think, well actually they do deserve it.
	They are the best team probably in the world.
	He deserves it.
	Why not let them have it at this point?
	Let them have that victory.
	But I guess, and my point is like, for the For the fans.
	For the not of it being a 4-1 conclusion.
	It would be exciting, wouldn't it, if Inter, you know, made a big shock?
	Yep.
	Alright.
	Oh, and we've got to predict an actual score.
	Oh.
	What are you gonna... Why don't you do one live for once?
	Yeah, okay.
	Instead of going off to your lab and looking at all your data.
	Ah, City 3-1 then.
	Alright, 4-0 City.
	Wow.
	Nice.
	What about West Ham?
	2-0 West Ham.
	Yeah, I definitely think West Ham will win.
	I think it might be closer.
	What might they score?
	I'll go 2-1 then.
	Alright.
	Alright, so there's our predictions.
	Until next time, thank you very much for watching Football Is Nice.
	Football Is Nice?
	It is, yeah.
	Oh boy, it's nice.
	On tomorrow's show, Richard Dawkins, agitated atheist.
	Atheist almost by birth, agitated by me.
	Over a course of an hour.
	No, come on.
	My favourite bit is when I say things like, um, you know, what about rainbow?
	What about, like, quantum physics and stuff like that?
	It says a lot when you say, my favourite bit is when I said this.
	I'm like, you can see, like, Richard Dawkins.
	I walked in at the end of that interview, and he seemed like he was really happy with it all.
	He was having a nice time.
	A lot of it was the dog.
	OK.
	He really liked the dog.
	He was enamoured by your dog.
	He was obsessed.
	He was like, what's he doing now?
	What does he want?
	What does he think?
	As you were walking out, I heard him say, I think it would be possible to be best friends with a dog more than a human.
	I don't like some humans.
	Some of them get on my nerves.
	I saw one just seconds ago.
	Getting it right on my wiki walls.
	Yeah, there's a bit where I go, look mate, you're taking all the fun out of everything.
	I really got into it.
	You really challenged him.
	Look, there's some good bits where he goes, listen, you're on the brink of making a good point there.
	That was the most he conceded.
	And there's other bits where I talk about Alfred Russell Wallace, the co-founder, the co-establisher of the theory of evolution, a contemporary of Darwin.
	That was a highlight.
	That came in quite early in the conversation and I think really established me as a Serious interviewer.
	What's really funny, you can see in the promo, I go, um... I go, do you like my ideas?
	You've been persuaded now?
	He goes, I thought your ideas were interesting and erratic.
	That's a good summary.
	Interesting and erratic, Richard Dawkins.
