	So, I'm going to go ahead and start the video.
	I'm going to start the video.
	In this video, you're going to see the future.
	We are getting some breaking news.
	We've got a live shot there.
	Hello there, you Awakening Wonders.
	Thanks for joining me for Stay Free with Russell Brand.
	We've got some fantastic stuff to talk about.
	Some of it sadly rather tragic, like Biden's fire lies.
	The personalising convivial anecdotes that he shared with those grief-stricken Hawaiians turned out not even to be true.
	They were insensitive domestic fires at best.
	That he was sharing about, and it turns out that they're probably not even true stories.
	Here to unpack all that with me is Gareth Roy.
	Hello Gareth, are you alright?
	I'm looking forward also to talking about the results of Sweden's lockdown experiment.
	The data is in.
	Sweden's laissez-faire experimental against the mainstream method appears to have been more effective than more draconian measures elsewhere.
	Of course, we can't even discuss that on YouTube, so you'll have to Use your little digits.
	Click upon a little link.
	Join us in the other place where free speech flows.
	We're going to be talking about Tucker and the war between Russia and potentially the U.S.
	Many people say it's essentially a war between the U.S.
	and Russia.
	Anyway, i.e.
	if you remove the U.S.
	from the equation, the war immediately ends, albeit unfavorably for the people of Ukraine who doubtless need support.
	But many contest a peaceful solution is the best way even to resolve it from a Ukrainian perspective.
	But before we get into all of this, I've got something on my lip.
	And why haven't you, my friend and associate... Oh, no.
	What is it?
	Screw it.
	I mean, I've been eating quite a complex salad.
	I should have pointed that out, shouldn't I?
	Yeah, you're supposed to.
	Look, I'm eating this salad.
	It's got sticks in it.
	It's got bits in it.
	It's even got a flag in it.
	I don't think you're meant to eat the sticks.
	Well, nonetheless, I thought they were all part of it.
	Where is it?
	Is it gone now?
	Have I got it?
	No, it's still there.
	It's the other side.
	Lick the other side.
	You lick it.
	You got it.
	It's gone now, is it?
	What a team.
	Nice, guys.
	It appeared up on the screen.
	You've got something wrong with your lips, mate.
	It's coming out of your boat race.
	But worse things happen at sea, and much worse things still happen at high altitudes.
	Have you heard about those people pooping themselves at great heights, the Delta Diarrhoea video?
	We talked about it earlier in the week.
	But it turns out that the story has continued Continue to evolve.
	Let's see what... I mean, what are they doing?
	Have they gone back for more?
	Have they gone back with a spoon?
	What's going on up there?
	there let's have a look at it well he got a lot of poop about the place
	There was a lot.
	Is some of it covered by blankets and some of it isn't?
	I think the blankets are there to mitigate the damage, to conceal it, to mask it.
	Those blankets are about as good as the measures offered by the Biden administration to the Hawaii fire.
	Here, have some blankets.
	But there are yet further mad... what do I call them?
	Effluvial misadventures in the sky.
	Effluvial misadventures in the sky.
	First time I've said that.
	People have been throwing up out there and all.
	Let's have a look at this one.
	The incident happened as passengers boarded an Air Canada Rouge flight from Las Vegas to Montreal.
	A pair of women arrived at their seats when a witness says one of them immediately noticed they were wet and reeked of vomit.
	Susan Benson was... That's not very nice, is it?
	To sit down before a flight, firstly to discover your seat is wet.
	I don't know if it can ever get better after that.
	No.
	Like, it's wet.
	Oh, it's... What would be good?
	Well, I mean, unless it's something dispensed from your own anatomy as a result of extreme ecstasy and pleasure, I wouldn't part with it.
	And even in those cases, a little bit later, someone's saying, that's enough of that now, and I move elsewhere.
	That's right.
	Put a blanket down or something.
	Put a blanket on that!
	That's a little delta blanket.
	Make myself a little delta pathway to the lavatory.
	Think about meself.
	But this one, if it actually smells of vomit, I mean, and that's a jest as well, though, that's a, you know, it's never good to sniff a wet patch on a seat occupied previously by a stranger.
	Also someone else's vomit.
	The only people I do that for is my kids and my missus, really.
	Or, I don't know, look, in an emergency situation, gal, if you were vomited, unlike you, lip ignorer, I would step in and wipe up your vomit.
	I think once you love someone, Any liquid is kind of fine.
	It comes out of them.
	I mean, it's amazing how quickly that turns.
	Yeah.
	How quickly you go from hating it... What are you talking about?
	Body fluids now?
	I'm saying it's... Are you a pervert?
	Saying it can quite easily become the very opposite, can't it?
	Yes, of course it can.
	It's contextual.
	There are some things that you just don't want except at body temperature and in the moment.
	Let's have a look what's going on at the Vomity Airways.
	...behind the women who called over a flight attendant and were told someone...
	It's weird, isn't it?
	Because this is just an anecdote you would tell each other.
	Yes.
	And it's sort of on the news.
	It's extraordinary.
	In a minute, of course, we're going to be talking about the mishandling of the Maui fires, Biden's deception in handling that.
	We're going to be talking about Russia, Tucker's assertion that the Russian war will become a hot war.
	So much to talk about.
	So much important news.
	But for a moment, let's see why everyone keeps throwing up.
	Had been sick on a previous flight, but the seats were left soiled overnight and not cleaned until the next day.
	In a widely shared post on... Soiled overnight and not cleaned until next day.
	I've got a wild conspiracy theory.
	Go on.
	Mask mandates.
	Go on.
	Is this prepping us for a return to mass mandates on airlines?
	Because that was a big thing, wasn't it?
	Passengers kind of fighting about it, passengers fighting with flight attendants.
	We're being groomed.
	We're being groomed.
	Aeroplanes are disgusting, they're smelly, they stink.
	There's poo everywhere under blankets.
	You should wear a mask.
	You should put the sick bag on your own face, like a kind of Mr. Snuffleupagus, like an elephant.
	Tape a sick bag to your face and puke into it.
	Carry your own effluvia around with you.
	Tape one bag to your ass and one to your mouth.
	And why don't you just poop and puke your life away, high up in the skies?
	This is me, Bob Dylan, in the early days, doing the news.
	Facebook, Benson wrote the women were told to mask the smell.
	The cabin crew please- What?
	Mask?
	Mask the smell?
	What did I say?
	I've never even seen this report.
	Wait!
	This is getting- Hang on!
	Hang on!
	Wait a minute!
	Something coming on!
	I gotta- Take a good look at these, cos it's the last you'll see!
	Go to the single queue, get to the single when these come out, not Gareth!
	You won't be seeing these again, unless you are an awakened wonder, in which case you'll be seeing them whenever you want.
	Have you become an awakened wonder yet?
	If you're watching us on Rumble, press the red button on the bottom of your screen, join locals, join the chat.
	If you're watching us on YouTube, we're just going to be doing this groundbreaking, revelatory, discursive for a matter of moments more before we disappear into the home of free speech.
	Let's just let this guy run himself down.
	Coffee grounds in the seat pouch?
	That doesn't sound like the Jabberwocky.
	It's like a poem.
	This is mental.
	There's no option.
	You're gonna have to sit in sick for the whole flight.
	Is this where the blankets are coming out?
	Is this where the masks are coming out?
	What do you need now?
	Some sort of medication?
	Some mandatory...
	Oh my god, well there you go, they're the real victims.
	Now, meanwhile, in rather important news with considerable gravitas, look at how disconcerted, infuriated, lost and angry the people of Maui are about their government's mishandling of these terrible fires.
	If being American means anything, it means that in times of crisis people are able to come together.
	It means that your society is maintained, that civil society is taken care of institutionally, and in times of emergency or crisis, the support is there.
	Nationalism is derived from tribalism.
	Tribalism means we have a shared identity, and of course tribalism can become oppositionism, and there's enough of that in American politics these days, let me know in the comments if you think that that's true, but At its heart, patriotism ought mean that we have one common goal.
	And in times of crisis and emergency, you want your president and your government to step up and take care of you.
	Is that what's happening in Maui?
	Do any of you believe that your resources, your tax dollars, are being marshaled correctly to support those most in need?
	Certainly this woman, a victim of the Maui fires, thinks precisely the opposite.
	Let's have a look.
	We wanted us, Hawaiian people, to be part of this state.
	It happened.
	Now what are we?
	She's challenging the fundamental concept of a nation right there.
	There is no reason for Hawaii to be part of America except it's convenient and apposite missile base.
	It's a good strategic place for air force to be.
	A mid-pacific, essentially, armament store.
	That's... I've been to Hawaii a couple of times.
	Did you know that?
	I was there for forgetting Sarah Marshall.
	I lived there A couple of months.
	But what I won't do is claim that my time in Hawaii is it makes it plain that I understand the suffering of the Hawaiian... You ought to give a better anecdote, to be honest.
	Because Joe Biden's anecdote that he once had a small tiny mouse fire in his home is disgusting and inappropriate.
	You won't believe this story.
	I mean, I can barely stand to watch this heartbreaking testimony from this victim of the Hawaiian fire.
	But remember how often it's...
	utilised in the discourse of the Democrats that they stand up for people of colour, that
	they're there to support people in times of need, in times of doubt, in times of fear
	and disaster.
	Well, what's happening now?
	Where is that support?
	Do the people themselves feel like they are being supported?
	Absolutely not.
	If this testimony is anything to take seriously, and I would suggest that you do take it seriously,
	What Joe Biden offers instead are insensitive, crass and apparently untrue anecdotes about his own minute experiences of fire that amount to a 20 minute conflagration in his front room that barely scorched his cat.
	He claims that that qualifies him to share in sympathy with the victims of these disasters that have probably been caused by institutional Inefficiency and neglect if many stories to be believed.
	The electrical companies out there didn't tend the grounds around their electrical equipment and possibly exacerbated or even caused that fire.
	We've covered that story elsewhere in our content.
	Black Rock and Vanguard?
	That company, that electrical company, yes.
	Can you believe that?
	Can you believe that the profiteering and the globalist agenda reaches into almost every story?
	Have you noticed that?
	Here's the way that Joe Biden tried to identify with the Hawaiian people.
	Here he is, rapping in front of a ukulele, saying things that are apparently, at best, half true.
	I don't want to compare difficulties, but we have a little sense, Jill and I. Jill and I, yeah, okay.
	So, yeah, because I've just, I've just buried me granddad.
	All of me, all of me drugs and medicine's been burned.
	I'm getting myself ready.
	I'm getting myself ready with a tearjerker.
	Kleenex at the ready, ready to dab the old ducts.
	What happened to you, Joe?
	What did you go through?
	What it's like to lose a home.
	Years ago, now 15 years ago, I was in Washington doing Meet the Press.
	It was a sunny Sunday.
	Lightning struck at home on a little lake that's outside of our home.
	Not a lake, a big pond.
	Did I say lake?
	That makes it sound like I'm incredibly wealthy and rich and have a lake in my garden.
	More like a pond, really.
	More like a puddle.
	Also, lightning strikes a lake and the house burns down.
	That's not how electricity and water work.
	He doesn't even understand the most basic elements.
	And hit a wire and came up underneath our home into the heating duct, the air conditioning duct.
	To make a long story short... To make an untrue story longer... I almost lost my wife, my 67 Corvette.
	He's told this story a couple of times, Joe Biden.
	He told it in 2021, where he said a couple of firefighters nearly died in that story, plus I nearly lost my cat and my 67 Corvette.
	Even if this were true, it's not the kind of story that should be shared with people that are experiencing a national disaster, Have you seen the images coming out of Maui?
	It looks like a war zone.
	It's every bit as devastating as what's happening in the Ukrainian cities that are under attack from Russian forces.
	Where the distinction lies is it doesn't seem to be profit in the military-industrial complex.
	Now, call me a terrible cynic, but I would think that a disaster on American soil should be the utmost priority, and more important than what I think, who actually cares what I think, the people of Maui certainly seem to think that.
	Now Joe Biden's story has been significantly debunked.
	Listen to this version.
	There's a contemporary account out of something like the sort of Mouse Milk News or something.
	Just to set it up.
	So Joe Biden, when he told the story to a bunch of firefighters, which seems mad that he was telling them a lie about something that they came and actually put out in his house.
	He goes round telling the least appropriate people that you should tell stuff to.
	Exactly.
	I've been burned in a fire.
	I was in a fire once.
	My pond caught fire.
	I'm a fireman.
	We risk life and live in fires every day.
	I was in a fire once.
	Stop telling people that story.
	They're going to be offended by it.
	That's unbelievable.
	So he said that smoke was so thick that it covered all three stories, which in a minute we'll get to that being debunked.
	And then he said we almost lost a couple of firefighters and my wife.
	And we'll get to that in a little bit.
	But he was telling firefighters that we almost lost a couple of firefighters.
	Firefighter are you mate?
	I'll tell you a thing or two about fire.
	The smoke was so thick Oh yeah, that's it.
	It's making such outrageous lies.
	Listen to this, this is from the Wilmington News Journal, which was reporting on this matter at the time.
	Biden's house on Barley Mill Road, which sounds like a place from a fairy story, was reported hit by lightning at 8.16am, emergency officials said.
	There were no injuries and firefighters kept the fire contained to one room.
	It was a tiny little mouse's fire.
	The ARCO added that firefighters from Cranston Heights, Talleyville, Elfsmere Mill Creek and Hoxheim Fire Companies arrived there to find heavy smoke coming from the house.
	Cranston Heights Fire County Chief George Lambun told the newspaper.
	The flames did not spread from the kitchen.
	Luckily, we got it pretty early.
	The fire was under control in 20 minutes.
	This is something that took place during the duration of an episode of The Simpsons.
	You could sit down, watch The Simpsons.
	Oh, what's going on in the kitchen?
	Nothing.
	Keep watching that.
	We'll let you know if it gets out of hand.
	End of The Simpsons.
	It's alright.
	We've dealt with it.
	It's completely over.
	Is the cat okay?
	Is the Corvette okay?
	Is Jill okay?
	In that order?
	Yes, everyone's okay.
	Well, at least I've got a story to tell people.
	And what about Jill's reporting of what he actually said?
	That's astonishing.
	Look at his actual reaction.
	This is a testimony from dear Jill Biden in 2021.
	She says, I'll never forget standing in the rain watching firefighters trying to put the fire out.
	I was devastated, she said.
	I turned to Joe, who loved that house, and said, Joe, what are we going to do?
	And he looked back at me with a smile and said, look at this way.
	Now we can fix all the things we didn't like.
	Already his thoughts had turned to insurance fraud.
	Just seconds after the incident.
	I don't think that's what they're experiencing in Maui.
	Oh, this is good.
	I can get a new carpet.
	People are devastated there.
	This is the destruction of an entire community and an anecdote that's been mobilised to create empathy actually does the one thing it wasn't supposed to do.
	It reveals the truth about the disparity and disjunct between those that govern and the people that they govern.
	They live in different worlds.
	And when that becomes clear, they'll lie about it.
	Yeah, I mean, amazing.
	The lack of funding that those people have received, I think there's a lot of my residents that say they haven't even received that funding yet, and what they get from their president is not the funding that they require, the assistance, the help that they require, but it's a story that is kind of massively embellished for a start, adding full-on insults of injury.
	Hey, listen, if you're watching this on YouTube, click the link in your description because I want to talk about Tucker's recent claims.
	Of all the many Tucker stories we could be covering, we'll cover Tucker's predictions that the US and Russia will be at war within a year.
	Click the link in your description and join us over there right now.
	If you're watching this on Rumble, press the red button.
	Join the locals community.
	We've got so much fantastic content for you now.
	Okay, so since Tucker has uprooted himself from Fox News, he's been speaking a lot more freely.
	Many stories that you know the legacy media do not want touched, and it's extraordinary to watch all of this happen.
	It seems that he claims that Trump could be a victim of assassination.
	Are they realistic?
	Let me know in the comments what you think.
	Certainly, his opinion that Russia and the US could be involved in a hot war within a year is an interesting one.
	We can't talk about that freely on YouTube, but By God, we'll talk about it freely here.
	Here's the news.
	No, here's the effing news.
	Thanks for visiting Fox News.
	Good day.
	No, here's the fucking news.
	Tucker Carlson says that Trump could be assassinated.
	He also said America could end up in a war with Russia.
	Are either of those things likely?
	Are we already in a war with Russia?
	And am I American?
	What you may also be interested in noting is that the media landscape has significantly shifted.
	It is now understood that Tucker Carlson is more popular than ever since leaving mainstream, albeit right-wing, mainstream media outlet Fox News.
	Every interview he does gets a lot of attention.
	His appearance on Adam Carolla's Notorious and fantastic and innovative and brilliant podcast has mostly gotten attention, mostly because he said that Trump could realistically be a target for assassination.
	Let me know in the comments, do you think that's true?
	Would they ever go that far?
	And that America will end up in a, to quote him, hot war with Russia.
	Let's have a look at Tucker's conversation and see, now that Tucker is unshackled from the mainstream, does he have a new ability to bring important talking points to us, the public, or could you say that Tucker is comparable to Rachel Maddow, who recently said that if Trump gets elected, he'll make himself dictator president for life.
	Let's start Let's start with his perspective on the war between America and Russia and the potential for it to escalate.
	Do you think it's escalated already?
	Do you think it's being overfunded?
	Do you think not enough emphasis is put on a peaceful resolution?
	Do you think Trump would have a better chance of bringing about peace than the current administration?
	Let's see if Tucker builds a reasonable argument for an ascent and escalation into a hot war between the United States and Russia, or is it hyperbole, before looking at his claims that Trump could be assassinated.
	The problem with criminalizing politics is the people who do it imagine or know that it will be done to them.
	So once you start indicting your political opponents, you know that you have to win or else they're going to indict you if they win.
	Right?
	Right.
	And so they can't lose.
	They will do anything to win.
	So how do they do that?
	They're not going to do COVID again.
	I know everyone on the right's afraid they're going to do COVID and mask mandate.
	They're not going to do that.
	They can't do that.
	If they've already been exposed, that won't work.
	There's going to be no.
	What are they going to do?
	They're going to go to war with Russia.
	That's what they're going to do.
	There will be a hot war between the United States and Russia in the next year.
	Really?
	Yes, of course.
	They want it anyway.
	I don't think we'll win it, but that's a separate analysis.
	But I think as a political matter, they need to declare war footing in order to assume war powers in order to win.
	I believe that.
	And I think the evidence suggests that's true.
	Do you think it's possible that America would go to war with Russia just to legitimize further powers, or as Tucker calls them, war powers?
	Have you noticed that there have been situations that have been utilized recently to create scenarios where authoritarianism appears more legitimate?
	Is that plausible?
	Or is Tucker being too extreme?
	Is this the kind of hysteria that many people would accuse Rachel Maddow of when she says if Trump gets into office again, he'll make himself president for life?
	The election means one of two things.
	Either he loses the election and he goes to prison, or he wins the election, he doesn't go to prison, and is that for life?
	That he gets to be president?
	So if you're worried about our politics getting, like, even more vicious, Than it already is.
	And people being hurt in our politics, which is entirely possible.
	You should be worried about the prospect of an open war.
	We're already at war with Russia, of course.
	We're funding their enemies.
	So we're fighting Russia.
	But I mean, an open battle with Russia where we say we're at war with Russia.
	I think that could easily happen.
	You know, I think we could, Tom, engulf our way into it, where all of a sudden missiles land in Poland, the Russians did it, our NATO allies get attacked, we're going to war.
	I could see that happening very easily.
	As we become more awakened as citizens, as civilians, as awakening wonders, you can bet the establishment is becoming more sophisticated in their methodology as well.
	With the war in Iraq, they've found a reason to go to war with Iraq.
	We have to go to war with Iraq, they've got these weapons of mass destruction.
	I know it's far away, I know you don't want to see Americans die in this war, but these weapons of mass destruction, where are they?
	Oh, yeah, sorry about that.
	What do you imagine will be the motivation in this instance, as Tucker said, missiles in a NATO country or an attack on the nation of an ally?
	Do you think it's possible, particularly in the wake of the Nord Stream pipeline, that an event could be created or manufactured to facilitate increasing tensions?
	That doesn't seem implausible either, does it?
	Let me know in the comments.
	So, so far, nothing Tucker said is ridiculous.
	We are already sustaining a war.
	We're already not using America's power to bring about a solution, but to prolong the conflict.
	So, everything so far, I think, is reasonable.
	Do you?
	So, if you're worried about that, you need to put as much pressure as you possibly can on the Republican-held Senate.
	To force a peace, which can be done.
	The United States could force a peace in Ukraine tonight.
	We're funding one side.
	There is no Ukrainian army outside of NATO.
	If NATO withdrew its support for Ukraine, Ukraine would crumble in a day.
	So we are the only power in the world that can bring both sides to the table to force a peace, which will be unsatisfactory as all forced peaces are.
	Like each side will give more than it wants, but that's the only option.
	Otherwise, I would bet my house on it.
	We are going to war with Russia and of course the stakes are Or everything!
	Or life on the planet!
	In my conversation with Sam Harris, we touch upon the subject of the war between Ukraine and Russia.
	Sam Harris's point is, the Ukrainian people want to sustain the war with Russia.
	And I would say, what do the American people want when it comes to the funding of this ongoing war?
	Let alone, as Tucker suggests, a potential escalation into a hot war.
	Defending the Ukrainian people is one thing, but if the solution to this problem lies in the hands of America, whether the solution is escalate intentions and hostilities or de-escalate in them,
	then the American people ought be consulted. In a sense, the immoral and ethical factors
	ought to be in the hands of Americans.
	Precisely the claims made, oh we don't want responsibility for those decisions, but I
	think increasingly people do. I think people want to say, I don't support that war, I would
	like you to use US military might to bring about peace, not to continue war. Let me know
	in the comments what you prefer.
	I mean these are the two biggest nuclear arsenals in the world facing off against each other.
	So, like, this is insane.
	They're insane.
	I mean, these are not rational people.
	Would they go to war with Russia?
	Of course they would.
	Again, they want to anyway.
	And I don't know why Republicans don't get this at all, but they don't seem to get it.
	And meanwhile, Republican leaders, and Mitch McConnell's senile too, so I don't even blame him, but all the stupid Republican senators and McCarthy in the House, I mean, it's pathetic.
	Um, these people are all on board with the war against Russia.
	Why?
	At the moment, that doesn't sound like hysterical right-wing rhetoric.
	It seems like a pretty fair analysis of what's happening.
	And what's great about it is he said that it'll happen within a year, so there's going to be an observable timeline.
	So, okay, next September, let's see where we are.
	Let's see if there has been an event that legitimizes further hostility.
	Interesting that he has to mention the amount of senility and different types of madness that dominates American politics.
	And for a moment, let us at least acknowledge that from the beginning many people have been saying Russia is not Iraq.
	Russia is not Afghanistan.
	Russia is a serious world power.
	Why are we not immediately acknowledging, hold on a minute, this is 2024, both parties involved in this have the capacity to destroy the planet, no one wants that, let's find a peaceful solution, and as Tucker said, that kind of diplomacy is going to inevitably lead to compromise, but I would say the half a million deaths up to date already represent a compromise, and each further death is a further compromise, there will be compromise.
	So all we're really discussing is what type of compromise is it likely to be.
	Never mind these hypocritical, corrupt, propagandist wars.
	They're getting on my nerves and they're bringing me down.

	Now let's go back to this horrific, terrible, unnecessary, dreadful, bloody war that can't be won because Russia are a serious country that will not stop.
	Maybe we could offer them some stickers.
	Maybe that'll cheer them up.
	Putin, would you like this crow?
	Would that put a smile on your face?
	Joe Biden, do you know who this is?
	I don't know.

	Now let's get back to this dreadful, unnecessary, unwinnable war.
	I'm maybe the only person in the United States who doesn't really have very strong feelings about Russia.
	I'm not that interested in Russia.
	I don't see it as our enemy or ally.
	I just don't have strong emotions about Russia.
	A lot of people talk about American isolationism or even nationalism as a great problem, stating
	that it is America's role to somehow police and control the world with the assumption
	that what America is doing is spreading democracy, issuing foreign aid.
	I am increasingly beginning to feel that a role of American corporatism and imperialism
	is to increase the profits and advantages of elite establishment interests rather than
	somehow go around philanthropically helping people out all over the place.
	What do you feel?
	So why would America say, hey, Russia's not really in our business, be a problem?
	Of course, Ukraine and the Ukrainian people deserve protection and support, but is the
	best way for that support to be issued a continuation of military action?
	That seems to be a legitimate question.
	I look at this and I see.
	True hysteria.
	Like they've convinced themselves that our global enemy is Russia.
	And I really think they mean that.
	And certainly the Republicans mean it.
	You know, the Nikki Haley, Mike Pence, you know, the low IQ wing of the Republican Party, which is most of the Republican Party, is low IQ at the leadership level.
	Tucker has become an anti-establishment figure now, hasn't he?
	He now exists in the same space that we do in independent media, where we have no trust in either party nor the system itself, and we are able to demonstrate the reasons for our lack of trust when it comes to pretty significant geopolitical issues like this escalating war.
	The only way that you would discount what Tucker Carlson is saying, I suppose, is if you wanted to maintain hegemony, if you wanted to maintain the orthodoxy of the mainstream media and the current political system.
	This is ridiculous!
	This is outrageous!
	But, as we've observed, he's put a timeline on it.
	Let's see what happens.
	Has the conflict escalated so far?
	Is what they claimed would happen happening?
	Is the counter-offensive going well?
	Have you been asked if you want to continue this expenditure?
	Does anyone benefit in particular from the post-war Ukraine scenario, like BlackRock, Vanguard, etc.?
	All of these are valid questions and all of us lead us to, if not certain conclusions, pretty astute areas of inquiry and near-diagnosis.
	They all think that and they mean it.
	And, like, someone needs to slap them awake.
	You're leading this country to its destruction.
	We've already lost control of the world.
	The American empire's in free fall right now, and we're going to lose the U.S.
	dollar.
	And when that happens, we're going to have real poverty here, like Great Depression-level poverty.
	it comes from this war. Tucker's of course referring to the BRICS alliance between Russia
	and Brazil and China, which is only being fortified by this conflict and is indeed likely
	to lead, or at least has the potential to lead, to the dollar being replaced as the
	global currency. It's curious to me that these kind of subjects aren't being presented in
	a plainer and more transparent way, but they're sort of obscure and peripheral issues that
	don't seem to be being openly discussed and the potential consequences of them are continued
	to be ignored. And I don't understand why no one else can see this, but it's super obvious
	once you leave, spend a week in Europe and talk to smart people on both sides. When he
	said that, I thought, does he mean me? It's like, it doesn't matter what their politics
	are and ask them like, what effect do you think the war in Ukraine has had on American
	leadership in Europe?
	I'm out.
	Ha!
	Dude.
	And by the way, Western Europe is our only reliable ally in the world.
	We only have one real ally, and that's Western Europe.
	And Western Europe is being destroyed by this.
	The German economy was crushed when the Biden administration blew up Nord Stream.
	I know nobody cares, but if you think like long term about this, They're really kicking the legs out from under this country in a way that is not possible to repair, at least in the short term.
	Let me know in the comments whether you think that analysis is reasonable.
	It at least seems to me to be an argument worthy of consideration, not dismissed as hysteria.
	We are already in a war, it is escalating, it is costing a lot of money.
	America uniquely are in a position to bring about a diplomatic and peaceful solution and that doesn't seem to be on the agenda.
	Why not?
	Why are we not at least discussing what just 20 years ago would have been seen as perfectly reasonable when it came to the conflict, for example, in Iraq, which, as all of us know, is nothing like as potentially globally lethal as this current escalating conflict.
	Now, if Tucker's claims about a hot war with Russia are reasonable, let's look at the other claim.
	Is it possible that Donald Trump could be assassinated?
	Do you think this is just the rights version of if Trump gets elected, he'll make himself dictator for life?
	Or do you think it's plausible?
	Let me know in the comments.
	They protested him.
	They called him names.
	He won anyway.
	They impeached him twice on ridiculous pretenses.
	They fabricated a lot about what happened on January 6th in order to impeach him again.
	It didn't work.
	He came back.
	Then they indicted him.
	It didn't work.
	He became more popular.
	Then they indicted him three more times, and every single time his popularity rose.
	So if you begin with criticism, then you go to protest, then you go to impeachment, now you go to indictment, and none of them work, what's next?
	I mean, you know, graph it out, man.
	We're speeding toward assassination, obviously.
	Consider that for a long time Tucker Carlson was a regular news anchor that was indeed on MSNBC or CNN.
	He was like a mainstream media guy.
	Look at how he is able to construct arguments Now, do I think it's possible that Donald Trump could be assassinated?
	I suppose it's possible that anyone could be.
	You know that RFK has had his security detail withdrawn, or at least has not been given a security detail.
	And Tucker's argument for the potential for Trump to be assassinated isn't, I don't think, as hysterical as Trump making himself dictator for life.
	That seems to be more hyperbole, because if Donald Trump went, I'm dictator for life, well, like, think of all of the international remedies that could be applied to that.
	Think of the domestic and national remedies.
	When it comes to the assassination of a president, oh yeah, I suppose it has never happened before.
	Yes, actually they killed JFK.
	When I say they, I mean, oh, I don't know, because they still won't release the files.
	They have decided, Permanent Washington, both parties have decided that there's something about Trump that's so threatening to them, they just can't have it.
	So there you are.
	Who has long been an anomaly and to say he's a divisive figure is pretty reductive and how can you ever emphasize enough how much Trump divides?
	There are people that think that Trump is literally the worst thing that's happened to American politics and people that think he's the best.
	You can't get more divisive than that.
	Is it possible?
	Is it plausible?
	I would say yes.
	I think with the escalating social conflict, with the continued demonization, even if it
	wasn't part of some deep state plot, which I don't think any of us could rule out, the
	chance of a random individual taking it into their hands, certainly not ridiculous compared
	to some of the comparable rhetoric emerging from mainstream media spaces.
	So what I find most interesting about this is it takes a figure like Tucker to present
	ideas that are jagged and vivid and that you simply don't see discussed in the mainstream
	media, and in particular with his analysis on the Russian war and its potential for it
	to engulf the globe, I would say it's a pretty fair critique and one that all of us should
	be considering.
	When it comes to Donald Trump, there's always a chance that something like that could happen.
	Reagan, JFK, so I suppose it's possible.
	Let me know what you think in the chat.
	See you in a second.
	Who wants to be surveilled and scrutinised by an unloving state?
	We're all self-conscious about our appearance.
	I love you exactly as you are.
	You don't need to change anything.
	But if you are self-conscious about hair loss, you might consider these little babies.
	Millions of Americans, men and women, are worried about their hair thinning.
	Maybe hair thinning runs in the old family.
	Is your pappy as bald as a coot?
	This stuff!
	It delivers on its promise without the harsh side effects, unwanted chemicals, and unplanted stinkhole of other products.
	Thanks to our friends that develop GenuCell skincare, Provia uses a safe, natural ingredient, Procopol, to effectively target the three main causes of premature hair thinning and loss.
	And it tastes delicious.
	Don't drink it, I'm mucking around.

	What you got to lose?
	Only your stinking hair.
	No.
	Here's the fucking news.
	I ally a house on fire when your house isn't on fire.
	Not very pleasant.
	Wars escalated all but for profit.
	Sometimes this world is a place of grave consternation, where unity and uprising seem immediately necessary.
	Thankfully football's not like that.
	Football is nice.
	Football is nice.
	Hello and welcome to Football is Nice with Russell Brand and Gareth Roy where we talk about the EPL World Football
	cultural aspects of the game, fan culture and the beauty of all things connected to football, as well as muddling our
	way through tactics, media, corporate connotations like Man U, apparently they're not going to seal Man U,
	they should seal Man U, shouldn't they get all the glazes?
	What Man United fan wants the glazers to retain control over?
	Yeah, I mean, I think that's the biggest.
	Obviously, we saw them lose to Arsenal at the weekend.
	Fans are... Oh, it's been a terrible start to the season for United.
	Terrible.
	And already, Ten Hag is taking on that hue of, uh-oh.
	For a minute, I thought, oh no, he's their sort of Ming the Merciless.
	sort of new overlord. He's going to guide them in the right direction. But it's cool.
	They quite quickly start to appear lame. Unlike Messi, who lights up the US game. If you're
	watching this from that great nation, how extraordinary it must be to see the world's
	best player, perhaps the world's best ever player, not yet passed his prime with his
	own unique and personal bodyguard running up the byline like a fourth official ready
	to go. If you've seen this, check this out like Lionel Messi. Apparently every game now
	is like, I guess it's like LA Lakers.
	There's stars everywhere.
	I heard that at the last game Harry Potter was there, Meghan Merkle, all sorts of, not Harry Potter, Harry, you know, the one that's married Mary Merkle.
	Mary Merkle's wife, Harry Potter.
	He was at the game, uh, lots of famous people were going... You mean Prince Harry?
	Him, the wizard.
	Have you always got them mixed up?
	Yeah, well, hold on.
	There's one of them, like, his brother William, he goes to Hogwarts School, he's got a scar on his head, he's part of the royal family, he don't like us muggles, I will tell you that for nothing.
	Have a look at this.
	This is Lionel Messi lighting up the game, scoring goals all over, and he has his own bodyguard on the touchline.
	I mean, imagine the humble origins of the great game that this would happen.
	And I tell you, this guy is shredded and deadly.
	So look, there he is, just tracking Messi.
	Look at that.
	He's ready to go.
	Look at the high vizs.
	Five seconds behind.
	And just have a look at the still of his, like, look at him.
	That's who protects Lionel Messi.
	Would you feel safe with that guy?
	Yes.
	Running up and down the touchline of your life.
	I love that guy running.
	I mean, does it take you back to your days having bodyguards?
	Yeah.
	It's good.
	It's good to have that.
	There's different types of... You can go a few ways.
	You can go the ex-special forces or the ex-gangsta route.
	There's different ways you can go when it comes to security.
	Did you ever do, like, auditions for your security?
	I let it happen organically.
	Okay.
	But I've always liked to... There's a fellow I have now from time to time, Steve.
	Oh, that boy!
	Talks to me like that.
	Right.
	De facto dad, is he?
	Basically, yeah.
	Hi, boy!
	How's it going with Stan?
	He's a Chelsea fan.
	I'll drop you a little bit of money for some sweets.
	Go on, have that.
	Get yourself something nice.
	I've got a job, you know.
	Nah, you're all right.
	Go on, son.
	Say hello to your mum.
	Go on.
	Be lucky, won't you?
	Are you a good boy?
	Yes, yes, yes, I am.
	Quite grown up, you know.
	Oh, God, careful.
	You'll get slapped round the ear.
	You're meant to protect me.
	How?
	Stop hitting me.
	Sometimes you need to be a young good.
	You don't know what's good for you.
	Go on, little clout.
	Stop giving me these little clouts.
	Will you pick me up?
	me up at the weekend. Oh well, I'll be a bit late though.
	Now I'm gonna need you to pay me. Oh, this is a confusing relationship. There's loads of
	stuff I want to talk about.
	I've actually got a lot of my own content. I like it when you've got a list. Yep, of
	course I've just noticed that the Glazers are taking United.
	Man United are the biggest net spenders in the last decade. They're the biggest. Bigger
	than anyone.
	Biggest net spenders.
	When Harry Maguire and bloody Johnny Evans come on, I thought, how can they, like, to see Arsenal revivified?
	Like, Martinelli, who was Martinelli when bleeding, like, Johnny Evans last played?
	Or Eddie and Keita?
	And Ketia, yeah.
	And Ketia.
	Like, them guys, I don't think they've even been invented!
	No, I think you might be right.
	Is that how people come about?
	Like Harry Potter?
	Like, that's astonishing how much the game and the world has changed.
	I'm amazed that even from a kind of PR perspective, Man United allowed Johnny Evans and Harry Maguire to be part of each other in the centre of defence for United.
	I mean, that's just incredible, isn't it?
	It's a new, new look, United!
	Here it is!
	It's Nobby Styles!
	Nobby Styles was good, though.
	Yeah.
	The good play is, this is meant to be a new title challenge in Man United.
	I mean, this is absolutely incredible.
	You can't keep trotting these poor sods out, can you?
	It's ridiculous, it's atavistic, it's like bringing back, look, look, Rebecca Jonny Evans is a lovely person, I'm not trying to criticise him, I'm just saying... But he came on a free transfer from Leicester when they got relegated.
	That's not the sign of a club progressing, is it?
	Moving forward.
	Yeah, we was panicking at West Ham.
	It's like, oh no, we've not signed anyone.
	All right, we've got Edson Alvarez.
	All right, James Ward-Prowse.
	I'll call Canis or Canis this French lad or whatever that Chelsea sort of wanted.
	Yeah, it sounds like you're worrying about nothing.
	Worrying about nothing.
	What we should have been worried about is dear old, poor old, soppy old Man United.
	That, in a sense, that's like to see them against the vibrant, vital, young Arsenal.
	But having said that, you know, this, as we always say about Four Ball, you know, if that, was it Garacho?
	Is that his name?
	Go on, Acho, if his goal had stood, like, because he scored, and I didn't think it was offside, as a matter of fact.
	It was very tight, wasn't it?
	It was very tight.
	Goals change games!
	I've been invited on Gary Neville's podcast.
	I'll do it.
	I mean, I'll be very jealous.
	Can I sit in, like, a back room or something and just watch?
	Yes, of course you can.
	That's the right way to say it.
	Now, let me tell you about some of the things that I noticed over the course of the week.
	I think that Man United bought Erasmus Hoyland because his name sounds like Harland.
	Yeah.
	And it's sort of gone, we need our own Harland.
	What about Hoyland?
	No!
	That's not what I meant.
	I didn't mean the noise that you make when you call for Harland.
	Not the noise associated with him, his name.
	The attributes.
	The purple dumbbell dinkle.
	The beautiful Easter Island face.
	The flowing golden thorn-like hair.
	The goals.
	That's what you mostly need.
	I mean, he looked pretty good, I thought, that Harland when he came on.
	You know, I mean, he's obviously no Harland, but you've got to give him a bit of time.
	No one's no Harland.
	He's irreplaceable.
	He's a one-man marketing machine.
	He's got his own Prime deal.
	Do you know that, um, there he is with KSI and our mate Logan Paul, like, advertising Prime now?
	That's amazing.
	That drink, Prime, has come from nothing.
	That's why I want to take this opportunity to advertise vile slops.
	It's down in our cellar right now.
	The best kombucha money can buy.
	Probably going to put some stiffy medicine in it.
	Have some five slops, get yourself stiffy!
	Or if you're a lady, a lady stiffy!
	Know what I mean?
	A lady stiffy?
	That's right!
	I don't know what that is.
	It's all there in the video!
	Five slops, mate!
	Oh, because Steve's out marketing.
	We've signed Steve.
	Five slops, boy.
	I tell you what, whether you're a fella, a lady, anything in between, drink your five slops, give you a stiffy down here where the sun don't shine.
	Yeah, I saw you out, boy.
	You all right, Steve?
	You've been drinking it.
	No, I won't touch this stuff.
	I'll stick with Stella.
	Not in my condition.
	Oh, no, no, no.
	I'll leave that well alone in my time of life.
	He actually is a real person, and he'll see this, and he'll be angry, and he might kick my head in.
	Yeah, he could, yeah.
	So, sorry.
	Um, how's it going, the old kombucha...
	It's doing well.
	Young Jim's in charge.
	What's wrong with young Jim?
	He's always editing.
	You do not start a business like that overnight.
	Logan Paul and KSI and Harland, they spend a bit of time developing Prime.
	That's why vile slops ain't ready to be bought to your shelves yet.
	But when it is, with a bit of stiffy medicine, all the special qualities, whatever you're looking for.
	Whatever I'm looking for.
	We'll add that.
	What do you want?
	You'll add it in.
	Uh, you know, found in a youth.
	Elixir.
	Right.
	So we're very much at the beta stage, are we, at the moment?
	I would say beta.
	Beta max.
	It's like, you'd be better off going with another model.
	No, Vileslops.
	It's going to change the world, I tell ya.
	It's a brilliant new product.
	It's very exciting times.
	Not like Manchester United, falling apart in front of your bloody face.
	Absolute outrage and ridiculousness.
	What I noticed as well, mate, when I was watching, um, I was just watching the highlights and that.
	Yep.
	Like, isn't Sheffield United's manager called something like Alfie Heckingbottom?
	That's too northern!
	It's Paul, I think, isn't it?
	He's called Alfie Heckingbottom.
	Like, they're a northern club anyway, Sheffield United.
	You're very northern, as it is.
	Get a foreign lad.
	Get someone in who's slick as fuck, wearing a very tight suit.
	Like, hey, come on!
	You're Alfie!
	Right!
	It's Sheffield United!
	We've appointed Alfie Heckingbottom!
	Right you slot, you're playing like big girls blouse and I mean that with no disrespect to girls.
	Now listen, you, you, you'll get knout and I expect a lot better from thee.
	You'll get one of these my lad.
	Here when I were your age we used to play football down to mine.
	Sorry for the anti-Yorkshire but you are from Yorkshire?
	I am yeah, I took no offence.
	I didn't mean it in a bad way.
	It's a bit like the Fiorentina manager, isn't he?
	He's called Vincenzo Italiano.
	That's ridiculous as well.
	Hey, I'm Conor Vincenzo, Italian.
	Expressing my feelings with my hands.
	Why you not play football like a mum used to make?
	I say, have you whacked?
	Now, that's a lot.
	I'm also part Italian, so... You are!
	You're just offending me.
	All of this, this is not racism and anti-Yorkshire sentiment.
	These are all very bespoke particular attacks on an innocent man.
	An innocent, kind, good man.
	So don't have Eckingbottom in... Oh no, he might be good for all I know.
	Now they've got a striker, Sheffield United, called Archer.
	Yes.
	He scored, and it was a bit of a shaky goal.
	That one that bounced off Pickford's head.
	Did you see that?
	It hit the post, then it hit the back of Jordan Pickford, the Everton goalkeeper, then went in.
	Now, on Match of the Day, they were saying Pickford had a good game and all that, and I like Jordan Pickford because he's knavish.
	He's a throwback, isn't he?
	Alright!
	He's like a sort of like a Im Vardy.
	Them sort of like... Like they're from a sort of... Go on son!
	They'll stick ya!
	Type like clockwork, orange, droogish individuals aren't they?
	He's also, as you've noted before, he always looks like he's shouting at something.
	Like every time the camera goes on him he's shouting at something isn't he?
	I like that about him.
	But when that ball hit a post, then hit the back of his head, then bounced in, I felt... As a goalkeeper, you're highly exposed.
	Any error you make could lead to a disaster for your side.
	And I don't like that if there's a comical element to it also.
	I know what you mean.
	Post, back of head, in.
	On goals in general, it never feels... I watched the Liverpool game as well, and I think their second goal was an own goal.
	And it's just a bit like...
	It's just a bit, this isn't a real goal.
	No.
	Do you know what I mean?
	No one gets it on their tally.
	No.
	Like, you know, you could sort of make an argument, like strikers at a 20 goal a season, plus strikers like to make an argument for it going on their tally, but it's not good.
	An archer anyway, the United striker, his goal celebration was the pose of an archer taking a quiver from the bow And then firing that arrow.
	Now, goal celebrations, it's been discussed for a while and I'm all for it.
	I like it.
	You know, Mikel Antonio and his numerous avant-garde expressions of joy after he scores bring delight to fans of West Ham and foes alike.
	But there's something about because his name's Archer and he's like, I'm the Archer.
	I guess you could say the Archer is struck again.
	Like, doing that, like... Do you think he's done it his whole life?
	He would have done it.
	When he was a little lad like that.
	When he was a little kid, yeah.
	Guess that's another one from the Archer.
	Hey!
	But he's managed a second bottom.
	Listen, Val, we don't do none of that here at United.
	You can F off to Fiorentina with those kind of antics.
	Here, we welcome your very expressive celebration.
	I am Vincenzo Italiano.
	Well done.
	It's a very beautiful to be who you are.
	Like, yeah.
	He's not gonna like that.
	I used to celebrate goals.
	Do you know how I'd take a shit on a pigeon, I'd go kill me brother's kestrel, cos he'd get too close to it, like, I'd wring its fucking neck.
	I'd go down mine and then punch myself in the face multiple times and then not let myself out of that mine for hours.
	I treated every goal as if it were against my old club, Yorkshire Bastard FC, and I'd maintain a dignified silence just looking down.
	If Declan Rice scores against West Ham, it's not coming up that fixture.
	Oh, you've had your eye on it, have you?
	Oh, it was the Declan game! Oh God!
	When I see Declan score that goal and run over to the fans, that was like, that's when he became Arsenal.
	That's when it sort of happened in that moment.
	I saw the transfer.
	I didn't like it, but I love Declan Rice, and who can deny a young man his place in the firmament?
	Especially him.
	He's a delight.
	He's an absolute delight.
	Everyone loves Declan Rice.
	Declan Rice!
	He's got it all.
	They were playing Rice, Rice, Baby.
	They played it.
	Amazing.
	Just let it happen organically, Arsenal.
	Don't push it.
	Don't try too hard.
	It's a bit desperate, Arsenal.
	A bit desperate, isn't it?
	Can't come up, Chance, on your own, without recourse to Vanilla Ice's back catalogue.
	Vanilla Ice, that's all the only song he had.
	Yeah.
	No, he did have other ones.
	I was actually really into Vanilla Ice.
	Of course you were.
	You've still not let go of the haircut entirely, have you?
	Now, the thing is with Vanilla... Although I did, as you know, I'm sure.
	A strike three!
	Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
	Tell them I've turned on you!
	Um, like, but, you know, I'll tell the story again.
	I was a big fan of vanilla ice myself, so much so that I cut a snippet of hair off my dad's girlfriend's blonde dog and hair sprayed it into the front of my own hair to be a vanilla ice stripe, like Tulsi Gabbard's got that stripe.
	But I cut it off of a blonde dog, a little blonde dog, no bigger than a shoebox, and I just cut that bit off.
	Oh, you poor little lad.
	You poor little boy.
	Did you even show anyone?
	Oh, no.
	What did you want?
	I tried to go to the shop with it to get a copy of the Beano, Dandy, Roy, Roy, Roy, Roy
	the Rovers, any football comics, Mighty Mouse and Hamish, I used to love football comics.
	What did you want? Did you want someone to go, nice hair Russ?
	I wanted something like that.
	Oh, well, say it, dumb boy.
	Oh, that's very good.
	You've added a little highlight point.
	Wait a minute.
	After a minute's come off, I smell... What's this stink of?
	Dog's hair!
	You... You're an animal, Fred!
	You disappoint me, son!
	You let me down!
	You're no son of mine!
	Dog's hair!
	Oh, look at that poor little thing over there!
	Would you cut it off?
	It's sticky!
	You shaved it sticky!
	What you done?
	Shaved the dog sticky!
	For your own head!
	That ain't normal, son!
	Not in anybody's language!
	You ain't one of the lads!
	You never will be!
	I'll have that pocket money back!
	Please, please, Steve!
	I was just trying to be normal!
	Oh, dear.
	Yeah, that is what happened.
	That's basically part of life.
	You poor, poor thing.
	That's one of the tales from your childhood I'd never actually heard before.
	I think because you didn't want to admit it.
	I've admitted it now.
	It's out there.
	It's out there.
	Cut off a bit of dog's hair in an effort to be more like Vanilla Rice.
	After I see First Blood Rambo, I dressed up in Rambo clothes and tied a bit of a... Where were all the friends?
	I didn't have none.
	You can't have my personality and a friend.
	It doesn't make sense.
	I went with the personality.
	I had the choice, son.
	I'm happy with what I've done.
	I tie a sock round the head for Rambo.
	Spencer from down the street come round.
	He goes like this.
	He would have only been 12, but he said this with the kind of wry weariness of Ari H Corbett.
	I'll step to it, son.
	Oh, Russ, you enough remind me of Rambo?
	Eminy's brother, Leon and Spencer. Good lads, good lads.
	God rest Leon's soul.
	Um, yeah! Yes, so. We've gone off track. We've got to face it because we've ended up talking
	about Vanilla Ice. Yeah, well I was actually criticizing Arsenal for pushing it by playing
	Ice Ice Baby in an attempt to evoke a new anthem, when I myself, in trying to emulate
	Vanilla Ice, actually put dog's hair into my own hair as a sort of personal hair transplant from a
	dog that cannot have been something the dog was pleased about under any metric.
	I love post-a-cog-loo.
	I don't... You're not ready to let go, are you?
	No, no.
	Because that's just the whole... How did it all come about?
	Was... Did you think...
	Did you think to yourself, I love that hair.
	I wonder if there's a way that I could get my hair to be more like it.
	You don't even have the same kind of hair at all.
	Well, no, I did.
	You had a quiff, didn't you?
	I had a quiff.
	You did have a quiff.
	Morrissey, Elvis, Vanilla Ice, everyone who was anyone had their hair go upwards in my eyes.
	So were you searching for something blonde?
	I certainly was searching for something.
	I'm searching for redemption, peace, connection, meaning, and I found it in a dog.
	Well, my dad's girlfriend Val.
	Val had this little blonde dog.
	I don't know what type of a dog you'd call it.
	It's almost a bit like a Yorkie, but it was Lella.
	Like a little blonde Yorkie, if you can imagine such a thing.
	I thought, yes, alright, this is vanilla ice-ish, but it's not vanilla ice enough.
	So, with a little bit of this blonde dog hair, snip that off, as I recall, it's almost like it's armpit, because that's where you could get purchased.
	Out it comes, snip it off, in it goes, spray it on with silkyints or silver cream or whatever.
	Did they wonder why you were spending so much time with the dog, or was that happening already?
	I think they assumed the dog and I were having sex, which we also were.
	But I've no regrets, actually.
	It was me that was underage, so the dog's the real criminal.
	So, like, um, yeah, yeah.
	Now, can I move to another item?
	I love, you love, and everyone love, Pasta Cod Glue.
	Even if you don't like Tottenham, and let's face it, few people do.
	Maybe our overseas correspondent for Lionel Messi, Nick Orton, has offered to be our overseas Argentinian Lionel Messi correspondent.
	He's a Tottenham fan, and he's a very fine man, creator of the Tapping Solutions app, very good, check out that app if it helps you with your mental health.
	He loves Pasta Cod Glue.
	I love Pasta Coglou.
	What I love about Pasta Coglou is he's sort of, other than them more chippy, little bloody, clockwork orange Tottenham fans you meet from time to time, thin, gaunt, sharp little teeth, spit at you, like, he's that type of uncle Tottenham fan, like Mick, Mick Paniotto, Cypriot, North London, beloved friend of ours.
	Why have you put blonde dog hair into your own hair, Russ?
	I don't think it was worth it.
	I don't think it looks that nice.
	He's like that.
	Pastor Cogloon, I would love a manager like that.
	Just because of the football, of course the football's wonderful and I think it's lit him up, hasn't it?
	I heard someone say Tottenham sold Elvis and signed the Beatles.
	Wow.
	You know?
	Because them two midfield dads are doing well.
	Sons firing on all cylinders of course.
	But what I like most about him is just the way he talks.
	I know.
	We've never had that.
	No.
	We've had plain talking people.
	Ari Redknapp.
	We've had sort of, you know, sort of pub room philosophers like Clough, Mourinho.
	What we've not had is like just someone who's like that.
	Come on, mate.
	I don't know about that, mate.
	It's like just thought so.
	Like, because Harry Redknapp is above the pitch of normal, even in his proletariat glottal stop in accessibility.
	Like he's a character, isn't he?
	He's like, I know, so I've told Paul Mercer and I've signed him.
	We out-bundled him in the back of a car.
	I've told Paul Mercer as well, he's pissed now.
	I mean, it's like a weird, like, sort of a capers, isn't it?
	Like, but Ange Postacoglu, he's like a sort of a football fan in a sort of laid-back way.
	Um, you'll all be aware that the great Robbie Williams, who we all adore, um, his song, I guess it's been picked up naturally by the Spurs fans.
	Has they done that themselves?
	I'm not sure.
	Or have they been brought about?
	I say, maybe, I swear in North London.
	Like, because it is Robbie, there is Robbie doing it, but is Robbie doing it after they done it?
	I think, I think so.
	Because what I wonder, with this as a chant, because you know football chants is one of the areas of great fascination for me.
	Well, after your own.
	After my own terrible, embarrassing, failed ones.
	Like, what about, like, where do you begin?
	If, like, you're doing angels as a football chant, where do you begin?
	Right.
	Where's the first bit?
	Like, do you just go on it?
	Do you go in on, and through it all?
	Is that where you start?
	I don't know.
	It's weird.
	It's a weird starting point.
	Because you can't go, I sit and wait.
	You can't go in there!
	You've got ages to go!
	Gotta make your way through all of that.
	Now Robbie's version is fantastic.
	Let's have a look at that.
	Oh yeah, that is right.
	Coming on for it all.
	Nice.
	So you like, you like want to and pasta coglue as a rhyme.
	That's a nice rhyme.
	What about whether I'm right or wrong?
	I'm not sure about that bit.
	They're undermining it at that point, aren't you?
	I suppose what you're saying is, I don't care, this is beyond the rational, this is beyond the logical, I love, as all love is, it's beyond rationale.
	It's big and bold, so you can keep your Paticino, Contamborino, and even Christian Gross.
	Weird to put Christian Gross in there, but you like that because it's niche to go back to Christian Gross after all these years.
	But yeah, it's good.
	It's good to have gone there.
	Pochettino, Mourinho.
	Because that's not even all the Spurs managers, is it?
	Or in order or anything.
	It's just like, it's just like some prominent recents.
	Yeah.
	Then Christian Gross.
	This is not an attack.
	No.
	Robbie is a friend.
	I love Robbie.
	So this is not a critique of his lyrics.
	I'm just working out the rationale and the logic.
	And I also want to know, did the Spurs fans do it?
	And then Robbie's like, I'll do it.
	If anything, Christian Gross is a comedic addition there.
	Christian Gross is a button.
	Mmm.
	He's a comic button.
	He's the third.
	Actually, that's good.
	Alright, this is good.
	This is good.
	Everywhere we go, a common football refrain.
	Yes.
	West Ham are massive everywhere we go, but we follow the West Ham.
	The idea of travelling to support your club, deep.
	So, I'm guessing this is an away fans, this is started with the away fans, who, let's face it, are a harder core of fans, typically.
	So, it started, I reckon, on the road for Tottenham.
	I'm loving Big Ang instead.
	It's good.
	It's good.
	Now, this is where you see perfect Ange Postacoglu, because his response to it... I got this from my therapist, told me to watch this.
	That's what I talk about therapy, football.
	Nice.
	Yeah, it's good, it's nice.
	Football is nice.
	Let's have a look at Ange Postacoglu discussing this cultural phenomenon.
	That's one of the most, sort of, backhanded, sort of, underwhelming compliments I've ever had.
	You've had some unbelievably fantastic managers, big names, successful, and then there's you, Ange.
	Yeah, so, and then, and then have I ever heard of Robbie Williams?
	Where have I been living, mate?
	I mean, seriously, look, Look, I love Robbie Williams.
	I think he's brilliant.
	He's a great entertainer.
	You've made a song brilliant.
	I think it came off the back of one of our supporters.
	Look, it's great.
	The alternative is they make up songs about you that are less than complimentary.
	So I'll take it for what it is.
	But yeah, thanks for that, mate.
	I'll just float out of here feeling good about myself.
	My fascination with the game, I reckon, pivots mostly on fan culture and the attributes of managers, in particular their leadership skills.
	and I reckon it wouldn't take a brilliant therapist, and I do have one, to point out that this is sort of like
	father issues, ideas around masculinity.
	And like each one of the sort of real great managers, you can sort of sense something in them
	that is about ultimately leadership.
	And I suppose leadership is the ability to create a culture and to create realities that couldn't happen without you.
	And like, you know, with our jokes we were making about Johnny Evans and Harry Maguire there at the top,
	like, it's interesting, because you can say, how did Ferguson for so long sustain that?
	And when Ferguson went, magic went away.
	Whatever he was able to generate, you're able to, like, unless a manager can get things out of players that other people couldn't, there's literally no point in a manager.
	And when it's like, whether it's Klopp or Guardiola... I think even Arteta at the moment.
	I think you can see it in Arteta.
	There's something in them.
	And it's weird, isn't it, because it's mercurial, because, again, like we were saying about Ten Hag a minute ago, it's like, when it goes, it's like, oh no, it's like a wounded animal or something.
	Yeah, well, I mean, literally, he criticised Sancho, didn't he, afterwards.
	It's the kind of cardinal sin of a manager to do that.
	You know that there's something wrong in the relationship between maybe the manager and the players, or potentially the players and between the players themselves.
	So it's a bit of a telltale sign when things like that start to happen.
	Because it must be such an affront to you.
	To be a manager, you're putting yourself in such a difficult, hard position.
	Caesar's someone like Graham Potter.
	He's just disappeared for a bit, hasn't he?
	I get the idea that that dude's deep, you know, and he's just gone, I'm out for a while, I'm going to keep my shit together.
	Whereas some people, it's like they've got probably an addictive relationship with it.
	And I reckon you can add, I hope, like it works out for Posta Kockaloo in spite of my
	feelings about Tottenham.
	Yeah. That's the type of character I would like to see succeed rather than sort of bought low.
	That's the sort of person you could have as England manager that. Yeah. That would be an
	amazing... like if he sort of got it... Culturally he'd fit.
	Yeah, culturally amazing. He'd fit with us.
	Like if he gets top four for Tottenham or Tottenham win a couple of cups or something like that.
	But he's the sort of person you could bind to your heart because he talks like a football fan and he talks, he's not fussy.
	And of course, many of us would have seen that sort of beautiful speech he did.
	Like, you know, imagine a person that's been, like, they encouraged you to play football and want you to walk on the pitch with them that day.
	like a sort of a beautiful anti-Monty Burns, now I'd like you to remember something else someone
	encouraging has said to you and get up there.
	That just tells them the concept of an encouraging speech and but it's like what yeah I like it Gal, he's like come
	Just tells them the concepts of an encouraging speech and but it's like what yeah, I like it gal
	Yeah, come on mate, and he's sort of like sand his hand like that is that informality?
	on mate and he's sort of like sat on his hand like that, that informality
	Yes, which is so very Australian in it. That's what Australia brings for the world that level of
	yes that which is sort of very Australian isn't it, that's what
	Australia brings for the world that level of informality and these at least
	Informality and these at least colloquially in conversation just seems to be the perfect fit for Spurs and I don't mean
	that With any kind of negative sense at all
	well, I guess what I mean is the Conte's the Mourinho's they didn't work and maybe because
	Spurs were not in the position for those managers to work, you know when contact came to Chelsea
	They were kind of ready to in a sense But usually those managers kind of walk into teams that are
	not far off the finish article potentially you could say You couldn't ever say that Spurs were in that position and
	maybe that's potentially why those managers didn't work It feels like Postacoglu maybe surprising everyone.
	Obviously the style of Spurs' game has changed completely.
	I think a lot of people were saying De Zerberi at Brighton like massively changed the style and that you know there's kind of been a revolution there after Potter.
	The same you could absolutely say for Postacoglu at Spurs.
	Perhaps it's high end too, but the fact that it could be a crisis waiting to happen, you lose your talisman, you lose the player around whom the culture of the club, the identity of the club, the goals of the club have all been built for a long time, and things are better.
	So then where does all of that affection go?
	It goes, perhaps correctly, to Posta Koglu.
	It's a great fit.
	Hand it to Daniel Levy.
	He's pulled it off.
	It works, he's such a good negotiator, isn't he?
	He'll have done some negotiating there.
	Buy Angebal then.
	What do they mean?
	Inverted fullbacks pushing harder pitch?
	That kind of stuff.
	They do look well fluid in that, don't they?
	It's beautiful.
	For a Spurs fan, it must be completely different watching Spurs this season.
	Did you see that Lyon, the French football team, not our producer over there... No.
	Or the film from the 90s.
	Although I like that.
	Very good.
	Very good film.
	You're not talking about that, are you?
	Is life always this shitty or just when you're a kid?
	Always like this.
	My favourite line.
	Like, Lyon, they...
	They give one of their fans a mic and just went like, one of their fans went out and coated everyone off
	on the pitch.
	Yeah, they just sort of go, you love that shit!
	And they would just have to stand there and take it.
	I heard Goldstein and Bente talking about it on Talk Sport yesterday.
	And like, what would you do if like the club arm a fan with a microphone?
	Like there's the phenomena of fan TV, like in particular Arsenal fan TV.
	There's so much good quality fan TV out there.
	But like, you don't give them a bloody microphone live and let them have it.
	Like, and I can't, obviously I don't speak French, but it didn't seem like he was very impressed with Lyon.
	I was like, Jean-Renaud, Jean-Renaud,
	Merde!
	Jean-Renaud!
	Let's have a look, we've got a clip of it.
	Let's have a look and a listen to this clip.
	The status of the dressing room.
	The message is clear.
	If there are frames in this dressing room, they have no right to be silent.
	He's furious, isn't he?
	You can see his eyes, he's furious.
	They're having to stand there to be admonished.
	This is worse than when your mate Phil Brown at least didn't scream, drifting down at half time of the whole team.
	Because that's actually, that's like the whole crackling atmosphere of the stadium now brought to life.
	Because normally you might catch You wanker!
	Something like that.
	Not a concise critique, and all of that invective amplified, and you've all got to stand there and listen.
	And Darren Bent goes, I'll bowl off and just go, but then he said, actually, what if he was the only one who did?
	Then you would become the target of the fans' ire.
	I mean, think of the number of times that over the course of, like, a season, there were moments where, you know, I've had times where I've, like, really, I don't Engaging this stuff too heavily.
	It's not in keeping with my spiritual nature.
	But where a player becomes like, it's him.
	He's the problem.
	Or a manager.
	You know, all sorts of different ones over the years.
	But it can change.
	I mean, you know, West Ham are a great point with that.
	Because of Moyes.
	Feelings about Moyes halfway through a season versus the end of a season last year.
	I mean, that changed completely, didn't it?
	You had West Ham fans cutting off the West Ham team.
	Might have never won the, whatever it was called.
	European Cup, we'll call it that.
	Conference League.
	There was a very important trophy.
	There was a brilliant VIZ article once saying that an England fan demands that Bobby Robson be executed.
	And then after a draw in a group match said they should be knighted in the New Year's Honours list.
	I'm amazed you haven't talked more about West Ham and high-flying West Ham.
	Like reactions. Yeah ridiculous really, but that that's a yeah, that's a terrifying precedent right there to see that
	Okay, I guess we should do our predictions shouldn't we and wrap up football is nice. We've talked about some good
	things We've talked about vanilla ice ice, baby. We've talked
	about my feelings about rice We're gonna go amazed you haven't talked more about West
	Ham and high-flying West Ham How well they're doing cuz I like well, I tell you why you
	don't look for games in ten points Sure, you don't start getting married to them sort of
	numbers If you're a West Ham fan when you know that the next fixtures
	are man city at home or I don't like that I do not do I not like that to see those reds and yellows
	and yours were yellows and greens Do I not like that to say like a like we got city? Yeah
	I think at London Stadium, Liverpool on the road, then Sheffield United.
	Here, a huge cockney is coming up here with a jelly-eel pie, can fuck off down to the road!
	With our hecking bottom and the archer.
	A bit of history with West Ham and Sheffield United.
	Just because of the relegation.
	I remember that because it's when I saw a different perspective on West Ham, because normally I think of West Ham, perhaps because of my own psyche, as inferior.
	But when I heard Wigan's manager or chairman at the time go, West Ham, you're a fancy London club.
	Look at that castle thing.
	That's when Alpton Park had this really vulgar facade of castles.
	Oh, that thing!
	Like they thought they were scared of that.
	Like it was a satellite dish or something.
	Well, I always think that about London.
	It doesn't matter what part of London it is.
	Well, you fancy bastards.
	Look at that.
	Oh, that's nice, is it, Turrits?
	You got Turrits there?
	Right, Archer, get up there.
	That's what they're fucking designed for, you prat.
	I'm not having a go at him.
	He's just a young lad enjoying his life and I love him.
	On that basis.
	OK, so, wow, Greys Athletic are playing Hertford Town.
	Greys, where I'm from.
	We're going to have to predict these guys.
	Who's put this together?
	What?
	Amazing.
	Jack, not bad graphics, Jack.
	Like, while I had a bad graphics chat, I was looking at him earlier thinking about it.
	He's very relaxed.
	Extremely.
	He's sub-Postacoglu.
	Yes.
	Isn't he?
	Like, in terms of energy levels.
	Yeah.
	Alright.
	Yeah, no, I've just... Yeah.
	...picked these fixtures instead.
	Worst international break, innit?
	So... Yeah.
	Yeah, he is.
	These ones.
	Yeah.
	Your girlfriend's got a bunch of energy.
	I know.
	She makes up for his lack of energy.
	They're like Jack Spratt and his wife.
	It's incredible.
	Jack Spratt could eat no fat.
	His wife could eat no lean.
	But somehow they made it work.
	Jack Spratt and his wife.
	Don't hear much about them people.
	Like Roy the Rovers.
	It'll just drop out of the culture.
	Unless I keep Roy alive.
	Which you will.
	Roy was a little bit of a... melt, shall we say.
	Yeah, he was a bit.
	Hi, guys!
	I never really read it.
	I just thought he was too...
	Hey, it's all going well for Roy!
	But then sometimes they would mimic cultural events.
	I mean, I think they did some sort of take on Heysel.
	Did they?
	Yeah, and like the Munich Air Disaster.
	And it was sort of weird, because it was for children.
	Honestly, I don't know, I might be dreaming that, because remember, I was the type of little boy who would sell a tape dog hair to me, Ed, in an attempt to become a white rapper.
	Yeah, so any of these things could be just fabrications.
	Come out of that same place.
	Do you remember when we were on the rovers?
	The high school disaster?
	No, I think you've been sniffing too much airspray, mate.
	Or dog.
	OK, so Wales versus North Korea.
	North Korea?
	Yeah, go on.
	They're coming of Wales.
	Will he come over?
	Oh, Trump's rocket man.
	Will he be over?
	He's not going to go on the road with them.
	Korea, we're massive!
	Everywhere we go!
	Except for South Korea.
	Don't like us there.
	Oh, that'd be good.
	Wales will win, presumably.
	So I'm going to say home win, 3-0.
	Heart of a town, Greys Athletic.
	I don't know nothing about Greys, except for Julian Dix managed Greys for a while, and I've obviously been and seen them a couple of times, but it was a long time ago when I lived there.
	I'm going to say Grey's though.
	2-0 away win.
	Qatar, Football Union of Russia.
	The Football Union of Russia have had to extract themselves out of Russia.
	Wow.
	Oh, come on, man.
	So what's that mean?
	They're still the Football Union of Russia.
	We're like, we're not really Russia, but... We can't even get our head around the teams, let alone the scores.
	Yeah, Qatar, this is too made up.
	It's really weird about graphics, Jack.
	You've took us on a journey through leagues, nations, and now concepts of even... You're actually trying to reverse the Westphalian Treaty and the whole concept of what a nation is.
	The Football Union of Russia.
	This is the first time I've heard this, because I've gone, oh, Russia is too dodgy.
	But if we were just to say it's the Football Union of Russia rather than Russia, Right.
	I mean, what does that amount to?
	None of the football teams are actually intrinsically connected to the nation.
	No.
	It's conceptual and abstract.
	I think the same thing with the Russian tennis players.
	Well, they stopped them.
	Well, they weren't allowed to play at Wimbledon and stuff.
	That's not their fault, is it?
	They haven't declared war.
	They're just like, oh, what are we doing now?
	It's not their problem.
	I was just, sorry, I was playing tennis.
	I didn't mind concentrating on that.
	Yeah, well, you're a bastard now.
	Yeah.
	And what about you?
	Have you had a vaccine?
	No, I don't believe in it.
	Well, you can fuck off.
	Everything's gone too mad!
	It's gone mad?
	Why has everything gone so mad?
	Why don't we leave everyone alone and let people just have a cracking game of football and a bit of fun?
	It's got on my nerves, all this.
	Right.
	I've had enough.
	I have.
	We've had enough, I've slot have.
	I've had enough.
	All right, see, so even though that's Mildred in politics, we'll make our predictions, by God we'll make them.
	England-Scotland, the old firm game, you've got a back England.
	I'll tell you who I like as well, Ferguson, that little, that Irish lad.
	Very good.
	Gary Lineker's well into him, isn't he?
	They love him much of the day.
	He said something like, I know a ghost, Dora, when I sniff one with my eyes.
	He said something really weird.
	He mixed up too many senses.
	I know.
	I see a goal... I sniff a goal scorer when I see one.
	He was so turned on, he got synthesizier.
	Like Kandinsky, a painter you can't mention anymore, because he's Russian.
	We're not allowed to mention Tchaikovsky.
	Not allowed to mention Solzhenitsyn.
	Bloody... Ain't we allowed to mention Tolstoy?
	All of the great Russians and Russian history.
	These... Are they not humans too?
	Yes, they were.
	Remember when Sting goes, don't the Russian love their children too?
	Well, turns out they don't, according to the rest of the world.
	Of course they bloody well do.
	Mind you, what's the first thing you think of with Sting?
	You can have sex for a long time.
	That's all we care about, isn't it?
	Don't worry about Roxanne.
	Yeah, fuck all that, mate.
	Up them fields of barley.
	Never mind all that, mate.
	How long do you keep a stiffy for?
	Ages.
	And that's because you drink vile slots.
	I knew it.
	I knew it.
	Full of lovely stiffy milk.
	That's a natural, natural Viagra.
	We call it Nature's Viagra.
	Vile slops, baby.
	Get it down here.
	Coming soon.
	It's just been brewed up down in the cellar by our editor.
	Yeah, he's got a lot on his plate, but he'll get around to it, won't he?
	Yeah, of course he will.
	We've got Jim.
	Jim's in the basement brewing up the medicine.
	Bad Jack Graphic not trying hard enough to line up a weird consortium of weird football fixtures that don't make sense to the eye.
	It's like a poem on an old Tesco branding, isn't it?
	Yes.
	Looks like a poem.
	It took us to the edge of meaning with that.
	International break.
	At least it's spelt right.
	1st December, September.
	Madness.
	Come and see my... If you're in the UK, by the way, and you must be because otherwise why the hell are you listening to this?
	Come and watch my stand-up show.
	It's got a handful of them in the UK over September.
	What a baffling world it is.
	We'll be back, of course, next week.
	You can see me 12th of September, Hayes.
	22nd in Plymouth.
	28th in Wolverhampton.
	Last two gigs, raise money for good causes.
	First one.
	I don't know what I'm going to do with that, probably.
	Valslops?
	Spend it on the old Valslops game, won't I?
	Gotta compete with Logan and KSI.
	Gotta get their Valslops out there.
	Gotta do some clinical trials on whether their Stiffy medicine's dangerous or not.
	That's why I've got eight mouses, and that's usually enough to prove it.
	You don't need to go to town with hundreds of mouses.
	I haven't got the fucking time for that.
	Just give them a little bit of Valslops.
	If their mouses get Stiffies, we're quids in, son.
	We'll all be rich.
	What a hell of an evening.
	Hey, man!
	I'm feeling pretty good in these vile schnapps!
	Those other mouses look pretty sexy right now!
	I can see why Gary never wants you on his podcast.
	Well, I'm a genius.
	It's obvious.
	The football insights.
	He sniffs a genius when he sees one out of his ears.
	OK, right, so that's the end.
	We've got to do other stuff now.
	That's all the time we've got for Football is Nice.
	And let's face it, it's not what you asked for, but we're going to give it to you anyway.
	Don't forget you can listen to this whole thing as a podcast.
	That was Football is Nice.
	On the show tomorrow we have the great Sam Harris.
	It's already gone viral, but what I think is beautiful is if you stay to the end of it, you see the two of us meditate together after... It was a weird conversation, wasn't it, Cal?
	It was.
	No, it was great.
	It was, um... What happened?
	It went unusual.
	It went a bit unusual.
	I mean, you got onto some pretty contentious topics, which was good.
	God.
	Covid.
	Yeah.
	War.
	Yeah.
	That's what happens.
	Trump.
	Trump.
	I sort of think, mostly, I'm like, I can't bother to argue.
	I can't bother to argue.
	And as soon as I see everyone in the stream, that's why it's worth clicking the red button and joining some locals, because everyone's going, Russell, you best start kicking it!
	I'm like, oh god, I was all tired that day.
	Yeah, I know.
	I was like, I'll just run the clock down.
	And then, like, people was like, got to me and I thought, right, let's have it.
	That was good, it was respectful disagreeing.
	Respectfully disagreeing with you Ben Shapiro, respectfully disagreeing but we will galvanise your audience.
	We respectfully disagree with Jordan Peterson, respectfully disagreeing with Shapiro, respectfully disagreeing, we just disagree with each other.
	I mean, we and I, yeah, we and I. How many of you are really in there under that haircut?
	I've revealed too much.
	We and I, and all the family up here, we love you.
	All right, yeah, so watch Sam Harris tomorrow.
	It's fantastic.
	See what all the fuss is about, plus there's a brilliant investigation into Big Pharma, and is this Big Pharma capping bill everything that it's trumped up to be?
	And I use the word trump deliberately.
	Join us tomorrow, not for more of the same, but for more of the different.
	Until then, stay free, won't you?
	Thank you for joining us, Sam Harris, you beautiful man.
	That's something I'm quite worried about.
	I'm not sure you and I would view the remedies in the same way.
	How do we get beyond this cavalcade of my experts versus your experts?
	My flag versus your flag?
	By acknowledging that we are all an expression of one unitary force.
	There's a methodology by which we would resolve those differences and this shattering of our information space is making it very difficult to apply that methodology.
	The thing that I intuit is we are on the precipice of new models.
	No one is conducting that research at Pfizer precisely because it isn't profitable.
	Let's have a little look around the Wuhan Laboratory for Infectious Diseases and check out how it's funded and how it's regulated.
	I'm worried about what I'm saying.
	But Sam, more important than that, mate.
	These are domains of relative knowledge.
	Do you agree we should start by addressing the most powerful interests in the world that seem to benefit more than ordinary people?
	Energy companies benefit when there's an energy crisis.
	The military-industrial complex benefits when there's a war.
	We have to address this.
	We should let them get rich, right?
	No, no, this is wrong.
	This year I have to contest this, Sam.
	I'm going to win.
	Man, this will change.
	This will change.
	This will change.
	Switch on.
	Switch off.
	Switch on.
	Switch off.
