	There's no limit.
	So I'm looking for this to you.
	In this video...
	Is that going to be okay here?
	We've got a line stop there.
	Hello, you Awakening Wanderers.
	Thanks for joining me today for Stay Free with Russell Brand.
	From the Florida panhandle, the redneck Riviera, where life is unusual and crazy and confounding expectations.
	Thanks very much for the coffee, Dave.
	I really appreciate that.
	You know, what I'm experiencing in your incredible country, in the vortices of incessant hurricanes, in the vortices of pre-election, is a period that I would say is transitional.
	I suppose it's reductive and even redundant to say that an election is a liminal space where there will be changes, where changes are anticipated, and where changes are felt.
	But we know that the world is never going to be the same again after the 5th of November.
	Will it precipitate craziness?
	Will it precipitate social unrest?
	Will it be a glorious new beginning?
	And let me know in the comments in the chat if you believe what we're experiencing is nothing less than the end of the political era.
	That no matter who is elected on the 5th of November, there's going to be significant changes transcendent of rationalism, politicism, congressional reason and remit.
	This is a time for change that goes way beyond the political.
	This is a time of change that has entered purely into the spiritual.
	Let me know explicitly, guys.
	Everything cool?
	I can be heard, I can be seen.
	And if you do anything, just a quick note, do it out of my eyeline because I'm very easily distracted, as you've just witnessed.
	We've got a lot of things to talk to you about today.
	We're going to be talking to you about Bill Clinton's appearance at Ethel Kennedy, may God rest her eternal soul's funeral, and his odd allusions to what...
	Sounded like flirtatious contact.
	Bill Clinton, he's still got it.
	Oh, baby!
	Oh, baby!
	I'm going to put a sheen all over that frock, honey!
	I mean, there is certain conduct that shouldn't be explored in a funeral environment.
	Wouldn't you agree with that, Lily Farm Girl?
	In fact, guys, do you mind spending a few seconds increasing the size of the chat, in particular the locals, when I'm terribly short, myopic, and I won't be able to...
	Three times as big if you could just do, you know, forgive me, I'm not a tech guy, but do that to it.
	So that, like, sort of, so that everything seems bigger, like the names and everything.
	Yeah, that's getting...
	Oh, yeah, yeah, now we're talking.
	Now I can see that Miss Molly's in the chat, MarkyB95, Blessed Old Bird, Jude Syker, Mr.
	Galway are...
	All present, saying things like you should interview Piers Corbin when you're back in the UK. Did you ever see, though, when that sting happened on him and looked like he was up for taking money?
	I'm talking to Johnny Freedom in the Rumble chat, welcoming me to Florida.
	I love it here.
	The Real Mix says, return of the tiny hat, especially in Florida.
	I've given that tiny hat to my mate, G, because I once burned his hat.
	In a minute I'm going to be reading you a little bit of this book, Mission of God, and talking about the nature of God's love.
	Not an indifferent Taoist love, a kind of impersonal God, but powerful love and the obligations that places on us.
	I'm talking about it, of course, in relation to the political transformations and transitions that we're currently experiencing.
	Do we seriously believe that our current plight Can really change as a result of modest modulation of the pharmaceutical industry or modest controls of the military industrial complex?
	Are we not?
	Surely now, let me know if you feel this, both in the YouTube chat, the Rumble chat and the locals chat.
	Do you sense something epochal, to use Michel Foucault's term, that this is a transition like nothing we've experienced before?
	Let me know, Kellyanne Katz.
	Let me know, American Sun 76.
	And if you're watching us on YouTube, I'll be there for like 15 minutes.
	Then we will be exclusively streaming freely on Rumble where we can speak about anything.
	And you can ask me whatever questions you want.
	A lot of you, well not a lot of you, one person at LA Point.
	Russell, what were you doing at Diddy's party?
	I wrote about that in Bookie Wook 2 where I attended Diddy's white party.
	And also I did go to Vegas with Diddy.
	I was in bed at 11 o'clock and there was no freak-offs, man!
	I had to freak myself off in that room!
	Luckily I was married in those days and thank the Heavenly Father!
	That I was protected by a sacred vow, even though I'm no longer married to that person.
	Blessedly, I am married again.
	Mexima Titus 444, with this comment, you're at the wrong rally.
	She's, of course, referring to this moment where Kamala Harris said, I think you guys are at the wrong rally.
	Let me know what you think about that, by the way.
	Because what the person in the audience shouted was not like, I love Donald Trump, or...
	Kamala Harris is not fit to be president because she's been VP for the last three years and presided at least as a deputy over much of the chaos that we've witnessed and experienced in that period.
	Is she a bulldozer?
	Is she not a bulldozer?
	Is she just plainly bizarre?
	These are some good drinks.
	I'll take those, Taylor, you handsome psychopath.
	I love this drink.
	Jordan Peterson, when he came in the other day, was drinking this.
	I thought, what is this?
	Is it cream soda?
	What kind of beverage is this?
	Topo Chico.
	I'm also going to be talking to you later in the week about that Airstech advert I did, which is sort of an EMF protector.
	It protects people from 5G, protects people from Wi-Fi.
	I see that blowing up.
	People going, look at Russell Brand selling tinfoil hats.
	But actually...
	Are you worried about 5G? Have you ever seen any of that research saying that 5G potentially causes, like, it's somewhat carcinogenic?
	That's not a conspiracy theory.
	There's data on that.
	Also, by the way, when it comes to ethics and advertising, and I'd love your feedback because we do have partners and we do have sponsors on this show, it's just amazing to me.
	The legacy media that takes about 70% of their funding from the pharmaceutical industry would dare to even challenge an issue like that.
	We know that during the pandemic period they couldn't openly commentate on mRNA medications precisely because they take so much Pfizer money.
	You know that legacy media, when they talk to you about war, have got...
	Generals and military personnel that work for Raytheon and Lockheed Martin.
	Keep still, Taylor.
	Lose some of those tics, baby, because I'm easily distracted.
	Either be out of the periphery or be very, very still, my darling.
	Thank you very much.
	Good work, mate.
	Now, let's have a look at the Kamala moment where she responded to someone saying, I think Jesus is Lord.
	Let's check it out.
	Okay, so when I press it, it doesn't play automatically.
	Do you know what that might be?
	Because definitely, for sure, I need to hear the audio of the clips.
	Talk to me openly, guys.
	Don't panic.
	It's okay.
	Because at least then the people watching can hear your voices, which is good, because it's something.
	So, do we know what that was?
	No.
	And do we know that it's going to come out of the speaker next time?
	Yeah?
	And remember, after that, I'm going to be going to clip four, and I'm going to be doing this the whole time, and when it does, it's got to be looped up on that speaker.
	So if it isn't, do you want me to play a commercial, and, like, we solve it now?
	Do you want me to do that?
	We're going to solve it now.
	So I'm going to play the Klamala clip.
	It's going to go back to the beginning, because I've got to press three again, and the audio is going to come out of that speaker.
	With the intention that they would undo the protections of Roe v.
	Wade, and they did as he...
	I need that note up front.
	Okay, so Andy, do you know what it is that the thing's not coming out of the speaker?
	Okay.
	Caleb, do you know what it is?
	We appear to be sending audio.
	It's, well...
	It's clearly not.
	Yeah, okay guys, so I need that.
	Listen, I'm going to read this for a while.
	You guys work on that and nothing else so that we can resolve the problems of audio.
	We should have done a little local stream, shouldn't we, before...
	Okay, right.
	So listen, this is what I'm going to be talking to you about more broadly.
	I'm going to be talking to you about the nature of God's life.
	You guys, you can talk to each other, talk to each other loud, fully commit to like, you know, audio comes out of that speaker.
	Nice one, guys.
	All right.
	Anything?
	Yeah, I'm live.
	I'm cool.
	I'm doing the show.
	Oh yeah, I've got to be able to hear it because I need to know what they are because I'm going to be going, oh, it's weird that she said that.
	If I can't hear her, I can't do that.
	Check this out, right?
	This is C.S. Lewis on the subject of God's love.
	Yeah, we're back to the buttons, Aaron M. Bunny.
	We're back to the buttons.
	I saw a clear clip.
	He said Christ King, Jesus Lord.
	Yeah, that's right.
	Check out this.
	This is why you can't be derisory and dismissive about the love of God because it's possibly the most important thing In the world, it's possibly the most important thing in the world.
	And I like this bit of writing from C.S. Lewis.
	This comes from Joseph Boot's book, Mission of God, that I'm currently reading.
	The analogy between, if you need to do a little test of it, do a little test of it, just to make sure while I'm doing this stuff, okay?
	Because even though this is important information, I'm also just killing time till we get to the point where you guys know that that speaker's working and the audio's coming out of it.
	And also, why don't you get in touch with the UK and get them to send those adverts over now?
	We need that stuff.
	Yeah, because we're going to play those ads in.
	All right, so check this out.
	The analogy between God's love for man and a man's love for woman is freely used in Scripture.
	Israel is a false wife, but her heavenly husband cannot forget the happier days.
	I remember thee, the kindness of thy youth, the love of thy espousals, when thou wentest after me in the wilderness.
	Israel is the pauper bride, the waif whom her lover found abandoned by the wayside and clothed and adorned and made lovely, and yet she betrayed him.
	Adulteresses, St.
	James calls us, because we turn aside to the friendship of the world.
	Who here recognizes that phenomena, the friendship of the world?
	Even now, see, when we're resolving these technical issues, you have to believe in the presence of God, in the presence of Christ, not to get trapped in worldliness.
	Even now, as we unpack these ideas, I have to recognize, what is my devotion to reputation, my standard?
	Mam Eleven, love you live, Russ.
	Read on about God's love.
	Just love C.S. Lewis.
	Well, this is one of my favorites.
	I've not read this about C.S. Lewis before.
	I'm not sure which book it is.
	If any of you recognize it, tell me where it is.
	So I'm saying, adultery as St.
	James calls us because we turn aside to the friendship of the world while God jealously longs for the spirit he has implanted in us.
	This I love, right?
	And it's weird.
	And this is why there's a lot of traditional ideas packed in this.
	And there's some ideas I've seen play out really intriguingly while here in Florida.
	Where I've met a good many Christians.
	But I'm telling you, the kind of MAGA assumptions that the mainstream culture holds do not apply here.
	There are people that are plainly Christian, living Christian lives, but are kind of cool in the way that 20 years ago I'd have anticipated meeting people in California.
	I'm talking about sort of organic farmers and people who look robust and healthy and well and lithe and...
	And vital.
	And believe in Christ.
	We're no longer talking about the Christianity of sort of fuddy-duddies and squares.
	The Christianity of a dusty attic.
	Or the Christianity of bombast and loathing.
	A new type of Christianity is emerging.
	I'm pretty excited about it.
	And why I like this passage from C.S. Lewis is he's talking explicitly about the power of love.
	That love is not neutral.
	To be loved by God isn't not...
	I don't want to say a burden, but packed into God's love is an obligation in the same way that love of my children has obligation packed in it.
	The same way that love of my wife has obligation packed in it.
	You know, I can't like love my wife and then not meet the obligations packed into that.
	The church is the Lord's bride whom he so loves that in her no spot or wrinkle is endurable.
	Now, I know you could have a patriarchal take on that, but I don't think that's what it means.
	You know, we all accept the passage of time.
	We all accept entropy and atrophy.
	But what we want is perfection.
	What love demands is perfect wholeness and completion.
	For the truth which this analogy serves to emphasize is that love, in its own nature, demands the perfecting of the beloved.
	That mere kindness, which tolerates anything except suffering in its object, is in that respect at the opposite pole from love.
	We call, because my feed just dropped out.
	I can't see you.
	With the intention that they...
	Cool.
	So we're happy it's working?
	Nice.
	Going to see me in the output.
	Well done.
	I'm going to finish this point because I'm really interested in this.
	Then we're going to go back to that and just make sure we're ubiquitously done.
	Taylor, you might want to step out the room, email the UK, tell them to send over the ads because we're going to play the ads and it's the most important thing we can do.
	Unless you're telling me the ads are here and ready.
	Love it.
	Good work.
	Hot mic when he has a plan.
	Good work, Taylor.
	That's how we communicate in this room.
	We ain't afraid that we're live streaming at you from the panhandle from the redneck Riviera.
	And I'm just supping on what could be, should be, some might argue root beer, but it's in fact a beautifully carbonated water.
	Amazing.
	The top of it's broken, actually, by the way.
	It could have slashed my facial labia wide open.
	Okay, so let's leave that now.
	I'm going to do this, and then we're going to return to the clips when we get to them.
	Okay.
	When we fall in love with a woman, do we not cease to care whether she's clean or dirty, fair or foul?
	Do we not rather than first begin to care?
	Does any woman regard it as a sign of love in a man?
	We're cool.
	We're cool, Caleb.
	We're cool.
	Can I have that back?
	I need that.
	I need that.
	Is it all right?
	Is it messing with your world?
	Thank you.
	Now, I think we've done that test now.
	Now, let's go back to me in the driving seat.
	We've done all the stuff we need to do.
	Only move if necessary.
	And I'll crack on with this.
	Love may indeed love the beloved when her beauty is lost, but not because it is lost.
	Love may forgive all infirmities and love still in spite of them, but love cannot cease to will their removal.
	When Christianity says that God loves man, it means that God loves man.
	Not that he has some disinterested...
	I'm disinterested because really indifferent concern for our welfare, but that in awful and surprising truth, we are the objects of his love.
	You asked for a loving God, you have one.
	The great spirit you so lightly invoked, the Lord of terrible aspect, We're good to go.
	Fire himself, the love that made the worlds, persistent as the love's artist for his love for his work, and as despotic as a man's love for a dog, provident and venerable as a father's love for a child, jealous, inexorable, exacting as love between the sexes.
	It is certainly a burden of glory, not only beyond our deserts, but also accepting rare moments of grace beyond our desiring.
	To be loved by God is a heavy thing.
	And to mock God is a heavy risk.
	And surely you saw that moment, did you?
	Where someone from the audience shouted, Jesus is Lord!
	And Kamala Harris breezily responded, no, you want the other rally, the rally down the street.
	Well, what rally is that likely to be?
	What beast slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?
	Okay, so they're pressed free.
	With the intention that they would undo the protections of Roe v Wade, and they did as he intended.
	Oh, you guys are at the wrong rally.
	That's a stock response is what that is.
	They've learned to anticipate now that there will be heckling and they've developed stock responses.
	It's not a particularly good one either, is it?
	Here will be a good one.
	While I'm not, this is what you could say if you weren't Christian, maybe I suppose.
	While I'm not Christian, I recognise that probably what you mean when you say Jesus is Lord is that nothing is more important than our relationship with God.
	Nothing can get in the way of that.
	Nothing at all.
	No inconvenience, no distraction.
	Nothing can take me away from the love of the Lord.
	And while what you seem to be saying is you believe life is sacred from the moment of conception, you must recognize that as President of the United States, I've got to tackle some complex issues, and we all know them now.
	Incest, coercive sex, crime.
	We've all got to work that stuff out together.
	Or indeed, when it comes to matters such as complex conditions that a child might have, are you saying that absolutely under no circumstances can we intervene?
	Well, as a Christian, you may believe that, but not everyone in America is a Christian, and I suppose that's one of the things that makes America great again.
	And then you go, oh no, I've I've accidentally said his slogan!
	Oh no!
	What have I done?
	What have I done?
	Contrast that with what happens when someone shouts Jesus is King at a J.D. Vance rally.
	Anti-Christian rhetoric and anti-Christian approach to public policy.
	I don't think we've...
	I don't think that we've...
	That's right.
	Jesus is King.
	And I don't think we've seen...
	So we do an Adam change it.
	And like the public's away.
	I don't think that we've seen anything like this in modern American politics.
	Amazing stuff.
	Okay, so this is one of the things that's fascinating to me, the kind of battle over McDonald's.
	Now, like anyone, I like sugar and salt because I've been evolved to like sugar and salt, but I've not been evolved or designed, depending on what you believe, to tolerate a good deal of sugar and salt.
	Well, you've got to recognize that McDonald's have created, through Ray Kroc et al., a pretty impressive We also have to query the nutritional value and the economic impact of McDonald's.
	What is it doing?
	Is McDonald's participating in making a greater, better, healthier America?
	Or is McDonald's essentially delicious poison?
	And if you believe that McDonald's is fundamentally a kind of delicious poison, why are people clamouring to pretend to work there?
	It's been proven that Kamala Harris never, ever, ever worked there.
	And now it seems that Trump is serving up Fries in Pennsylvania.
	I've not seen this myself yet.
	Let's have a look.
	Now, before we do this clip, shall I press five and then press play?
	Or are I pressing five and then you're pressing play?
	But for next time round, five means play.
	Cool.
	Okay, we can't fix that today because it's too fiddly.
	Okay.
	I'm looking for a job, and I've always wanted to work at McDonald's.
	I never did.
	I'm running against somebody that said she did, but it turned out to be a totally phony story.
	President Trump!
	Well, that's a good-looking group.
	Hello, everybody.
	I'm having a lot of fun here, everybody.
	We'll take news of it.
	The dude is pretty personable.
	You've got to say that.
	MSNBC, though, are not happy about that.
	We'll watch their response to it, and then we'll talk about sort of...
	When people talk about the overteen window, this is what they mean.
	We're only talking about a narrow bandwidth of potential issues.
	Now, because of RFK entering this campaign, and because he consults with people like Callie and Casey Means, when we talk now about a vision for America, here's something that you might want to consider.
	Imagine an America where the food that you ate was grown or reared near where you live, where there were decentralized, federalized, subsidiarities of economies that meant that food wasn't slaughtered en masse in abattoirs, but reared locally.
	Weren't grown in vast Nebraska plains, but grown locally, where we had the maximal ability to meet our own needs at the level of the community.
	Centralized, elected, local, participatory democracy, not only in every state, but in every region.
	You know that's a possible model.
	You know using the technology that sets up Airbnb and Uber, you could create localized participatory democracies, where you wouldn't have Congress where every single member is exposed to lobbying, and the two parties are exposed to donation, and all of them sit on the crucible of the deep and the two parties are exposed to donation, and all of All of these things could be untethered.
	The serpent itself could be beheaded.
	So when we just talk about, you know, a couple of tax points this way or a couple of...
	Fines for Big Pharma that way.
	We're not embracing the full remit of possibility that is afforded to us.
	Truly, we could change the world because through him and thanks to his great gifts, the world is ours to change.
	We're here to enjoy it.
	So, settling for just a couple of tweaks or twerks in this direction or that is not a bold enough vision.
	This country is so great because you made the decision to slough off British colonial imperialism.
	You threw off the crown.
	We don't want to be run by that demented lunatic who taxes us and don't pay us.
	You had a revolution on the basis of that principle.
	Well, as I think it was Thomas Jefferson who said, you need continual revolution.
	Almost by the generation to reset the institutional corruption that sets in.
	Hey, we're going to finish off this point about McDonald's, but we're leaving YouTube now.
	Start the countdown.
	So in 30 seconds, we won't be on YouTube anymore.
	Let me know what you think in the comments in the chat.
	Do you know how to fire that up, guys?
	Do you know where it is?
	Can I see it on my output?
	The YouTube count-off?
	It's not on my output.
	Is it on your output?
	Yeah?
	So we're not seeing that yet.
	Can you fire it up?
	Do you know how to fire it up?
	Let's fire it.
	Oh, brilliant.
	Click the link in the description.
	We're going to finish this McDonald's story off.
	We're going to cover Elon Musk's rallies.
	Because then I don't know how long I've got to talk or anything.
	Click the link in the description.
	Get on over to Rumble.
	Join us there.
	Let's have a look at...
	Well, what I want to complete fundamentally is my point that it shouldn't be enough...
	To just ally yourself more favourably with McDonald's and their enormous market.
	What our aim ought to be is to maybe not have McDonald's.
	How's that for a revolutionary position?
	Let's have a look at what MSNBC is saying on this.
	I mean, if you're on his campaign, and I know you are certainly not, I'm not making any implication of that, but what is the logic behind this, going to a McDonald's?
	I mean, we know the guy likes Big Macs and Filet-O-Fish, and he's used the word love to describe the way he feels about the food there before.
	But what's this about?
	There's no logic to it.
	It's a stunt.
	He has not put forth an economic agenda.
	He, as you know, appears to be not well.
	And he's engaged in some really bizarre types of activities during this campaign.
	So this is just another one of those stunts.
	That he will continue on through the campaign.
	And I think that we need to really focus on making sure that he is not elected, of course, because he is a threat to our democracy, but also the Harris loss agenda is about the economy, reducing the cost of living, reducing the cost of prescription drugs, reducing the cost of housing and making life better for everyone.
	And that's what we have to focus on and make sure we get every voter To the polls and make sure that the voters vote for the future, not taking the country backwards as you see what Donald Trump continues to try to do.
	So I'm urging and encouraging everyone to get to the polls and vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walsh to be their next.
	Okay, that sounds like a good suggestion.
	Let's have a look at this deal.
	I was talking to RFK Jr.
	You know, he endorsed me.
	He's a big Trump guy now.
	Ma, they call it.
	Make America healthy again.
	I'm going to come back, Taylor.
	I'm not in vision now.
	He was telling me these seed oils in the fries are toxic.
	We want them out.
	They used to be made in beautiful tallow.
	We're going to bring the tallow back, folks.
	That's like a fake joke thing.
	That's fantastic.
	Okay, so there you have it.
	A more bold position, perhaps, on American nutrition and food will be decentralization and localism.
	If you want to learn more about those subjects, you should look up Vandana Shiva, the agricultural activist from India, who has no problem saying...
	And I can't believe that I'm even quoting her on this.
	But Bill Gates has had a more negative impact than you know who Trump gets compared to a lot.
	And you might want to look at the work of Helena Norberg-Hodge, who talks about localism and localized agriculture.
	This stuff is glorious.
	It's the kind of education that you want to give yourself.
	Okay, so, Elon Musk.
	Now, when is election interference not election interference?
	Well, I suppose it's when you're on the side of people interfering in elections.
	Elon Musk is now currently deeply involved in the MAGA campaign and has announced that he's going to award a million dollars at random to people who sign his petitions in support of the First and Second Amendments.
	Let me know what you think about that, you guys, and let's have a look.
	So when that fires up comments, okay, so that's another thing for...
	For your show notes today, Taylor, is like when I say comments, let's see comments.
	So the main note is that this screen should be output.
	That's one note.
	Second one is second, because that's how I know that everything's okay.
	And like if we go 30 seconds to YouTube, then I know that it's 30 seconds and I'm watching and I can time the cadence of my announcement for 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, so get that note.
	In short, ideally, this mic goes down during adverts.
	And when are we firing in?
	What's our first ad and when's it firing in?
	Hello.
	Okay, and remember that's your job to cue me for that, Taylor.
	So that's one of the things you need to know.
	You need to know what minute it's in and when it's firing up.
	Did no one explain that to you today?
	No or yes?
	Yes, yes.
	Okay.
	So, alright, let's make sure that we do that, mate.
	And then...
	And finally on this...
	We need to make sure that this Stream Deck, when I press the number, it doesn't cue it and pause it.
	It plays it.
	We've really, really got to do that.
	The audio on this speaker has to be loud enough for me to hear it.
	Hey, guys, thanks for persevering with me.
	We're in a new location now.
	We're working with a new team.
	Taylor's taking the job of producing this show.
	And actually, other than Taylor, everyone in this room I've met at the Destiny Church in Destin in the Florida Panhandle.
	And everyone is just, like, working on the basis of, I think...
	For fun!
	I mean, I don't actually...
	These people are beyond my spiritual understanding.
	I don't even fully understand their motivations.
	Andy, thank you very much for running the sound.
	Caleb, thank you for running the tech.
	Taylor, thank you for operating that camera.
	And Jake, thank you so much for doing this.
	And I hope you can handle the levels of intensity that come with live performance because, you know, that's...
	That's the way, you know, I don't know, this is how I'm in this position, I suppose.
	It's a certain degree of intensity.
	Alright, so let's have a look at the Elon Musk thing.
	And remember, oh, that's another thing, countdowns on clips.
	So tomorrow when this comes up, it would say that the clip is 39 seconds long, so that I think, oh, it's not worth pausing this in the middle of it, because it's only 39 seconds.
	But if it was a three-minute clip, I'm like, I'm going to pause this now, make this point now.
	Alright, so just so you understand it.
	Also, if you're watching this, can you make notes?
	Not if you're like, I'm not talking about you, NightwatchN8, who's asking who your daddy is.
	It's Ron Brand.
	It's as simple as that.
	Great management skills, Russell.
	Thank you very much.
	Thanks.
	Yeah, cheers.
	Where did your old mate go?
	Where did your old mate go?
	Which old mate?
	I've moved to England.
	I mean, we're in America, and Gareth is watching this in the United Kingdom.
	Well, I'm in America now, baby, in this country.
	Alright, so let's have a look at Elon Musk talking about this, you know, this sort of...
	It's like anyone that signs up to his petition is eligible to win a million dollars.
	And then we're going to see Josh Shapiro's reaction to that.
	So is it election interference from Musk?
	Watch this, Massey.
	This is your in, I suppose.
	Is Elon Musk interfering in an election when he offers people the opportunity to win a million dollars?
	And what does it mean, election interference, when Google can ban adverts at will?
	When Google is seemingly directing internet traffic in a particular direction with a particular favoured income?
	Is it outcome?
	Excuse me.
	Is it just outcome?
	They don't like it, do they?
	The establishment that they can't control every platform.
	They don't like it that they can't control Rumble, they can't control X, and therefore they cannot control America.
	Let's have a look at the fact that Elon Musk is potentially awarding a million dollars to various folks.
	We're going to be awarding a million dollars randomly to people who have signed the petition every day.
	From now until the election.
	One of the challenges we're having is like, well, how do we get people to know about this petition?
	Because the legacy media is going to report on it.
	You know, not everyone's on X. So, I figure, how do we get people to know about it?
	Well, this news, I think, is going to really fly.
	So...
	Ah, bad graphics, Jack.
	How we miss thee.
	Very funny in the locals chat.
	If you're not on Awake and Wonder yet, consider becoming an Awake and Wonder.
	You get access to some incredible content.
	And I'll be talking to you about that in a minute.
	But first I want to tell you about our partner, Hallows.
	I'll give you a clear cue.
	It'll be a hand cue, okay?
	So, Hallows.
	Make an amazing app where you can do meditations, where you can do Pray the Rosary.
	Jonathan Rumi, my body double in the show Ballers, and our Lord and Saviour in the show Chosen.
	Jesus is my body double.
	Thank the Lord.
	He is one of the voices on there.
	But also there's people like, Hello, I'm Jeff Cavins.
	And the brilliant Father Mike Schmitz.
	All of these participants are available on the app Hello.
	It's brilliant.
	I use it myself.
	You'll love it.
	Here's a message from them now.
	I love...
	The Hallow app.
	It's been so vital in my journey of Christianity.
	Ongoing journey.
	I'm learning a great deal.
	The Hallow app's important.
	One, because you can do the rosary with it.
	Two, you can have our Lord and Saviour actor, Jonathan Jesus Rumi, as I call him, reading scripture to you.
	And now, there's this brilliant, new, Bear Grylls-led study of C.S. Lewis's Mere Christianity, in which Bear Grylls, my friend, I've done survival with him, you know, Bear Grylls baptized my ass.
	In fact, he baptized all of me.
	Bear Grylls will be reading Mere Christianity and then leading us in prayer.
	It's going to be amazing.
	So, it's coming up to election week.
	It's going to be an insane time.
	Why not seek some peace in the company of our Lord and Saviour?
	I mean Jesus, not Bear Grylls, although he is also terrific.
	And learn about C.S. Lewis's epochal, significant and magnificent Mere Christianity.
	Sign up to Hallow, download the app and join the Mere Christianity Challenge.
	Download Hallow for three months free at hallow.com forward slash brand.
	Then they'll know that these commercials that I do work.
	And I'm glad they work because I really do love Hallow.
	It's a brilliant app.
	The Rosary and now a Mere Christianity Challenge.
	I'll be on it.
	Join me for it.
	See you there.
	Hey, Josh Shapiro threatened to have Elon Musk arrested for handing out money to town hall attendees who signed his America petition.
	So that's the other half of this story, the pushback.
	Governor, let me ask you about a development we learned about overnight.
	Elon Musk says he will be giving away a million dollars every day to random voters who sign his super PACs petition.
	You are a former attorney general.
	Is this legal?
	I think there are real questions with how he is spending money in this race, how the dark money is flowing, not just into Pennsylvania, but apparently now into the pockets of Pennsylvanians.
	That is deeply concerning.
	Musk obviously has a right to be able to express his views.
	He's made it very, very clear that he supports Donald Trump.
	Obviously, we have a difference of opinion.
	I don't deny him that right.
	But when you start flowing this kind of money into politics, I think it raises serious questions that folks may want to take a look at.
	So you think it might not be legal, yes or no?
	I think it's something that law enforcement can take a look at.
	I'm not the attorney general anymore of Pennsylvania.
	I'm the governor.
	But it does raise some serious questions.
	Okay, so let's have a look at Elon's response, in which he pointed out that Mark Zuckerberg spent $400 million on the Get Out and Vote campaign.
	Now, when people say Get Out and Vote, they mean Get Out and Vote for them, don't they?
	So when, like, if you're in a sort of a Republican parish or jurisdiction and people say Get Out and Vote, they don't mean vote against the Republicans, and the same is true for the Democrats.
	So when Zuckerberg...
	Spends $400 million on the Get Out and Vote campaign in 2020.
	He means vote for Biden.
	Let's have a look now at that aspect of this story.
	My understanding is that Zuckerberg spent $400 million in the last election, nominally in a Get Out the Vote campaign, but really fundamentally in support of Democrats.
	Is that accurate or not accurate?
	That is accurate.
	Does that sound unbiased to you?
	No, it doesn't.
	So you don't see hope that Facebook will approach this as a non-aligned arbiter?
	You know what I like with people that are on the spectrum and borderline is the way that they sort of go, yes, like that.
	I like the sort of cold logical rationalism of his engineering mind.
	Do you like that?
	It's pretty good, isn't it?
	Okay, so a senior meta-engineer has revealed that anti-Kamala or Kamala posts are automatically demoted.
	And like we've noticed this on sort of YouTube and elsewhere, that what...
	One of the tactics is not out-and-out censorship and banning of content, but de-amplification of content.
	And that will mean that content providers that are somewhat dependent on programmatic ads.
	Remember, I'm demonetized on YouTube, so it doesn't make too much difference to me, other than Rumble would have had that money, I guess.
	What it means is you'll stop making anti-Kamala content or pro-Trump content.
	It's just another way of managing the information sphere.
	What we're actually involved in more broadly, even bigger than this election, even bigger than the pandemic, even bigger than the global wars, is the control of information, because information controls reality.
	There could be a billion, zillion, in fact, there are limitless things that are real.
	If I don't know about them, if they're not in the sphere of my understanding, then I don't make decisions based on them.
	If you can control the information that I access, you would fundamentally control my reality, except unless, of course, I have access to eternity, unless I have access to an atemporal And that's exactly why I'm advocating for the transcendent spiritual life and that's exactly why that's the life.
	Pretty conversation.
	Excuse me, pretty good conversation with Jordan Peterson.
	It's up now.
	It's going to be on the show on Rumble, but if you're not awake and wonder yet, consider becoming one because Break Bread is up.
	My conversation with Tucker Carlson, I'll show you a little bit of that in a minute, but here's a conversation I had last week with Jordan Peterson on the significance of the golden calf.
	I'm reading about that as well in this Mission of God book by Joseph Boot that I'm very much enjoying.
	It's populism.
	That's a good way of thinking about it.
	It's the worst element of populism.
	Here's why.
	Well, so the golden calf worship emerges among the Israelites when they're lost in the desert.
	So they've escaped from tyranny, right?
	So they're not in the Tower of Babel anymore.
	They're in the desert, in the desert wilderness.
	They're in the space between places.
	They're on the way to the Promised Land.
	They're nowhere.
	They're nowhere and they're lost.
	It's not very far from Egypt to Canaan.
	Right?
	So you might say, what the hell are they doing?
	And the answer is, it takes lost people forever to find their way because they have no direction.
	I mean, these conversations that I'm having currently, I must say, are elevating me beyond the low threshold of political discourse, which is by...
	It's nature polemicist and sort of almost futile.
	I don't know how you guys feel about it, but I think there's only so far you can go arguing about bureaucracy and administration and the way that centralized systems of government that are ultimately controlled by globalists and corporate interests impact the lives of ordinary Americans.
	But when you talk about a creator god and having a relationship with that creator god, suddenly the conversation gets a little more interesting.
	Here's a bit of the first episode of Breaking Bread.
	The next episode is live streamed tomorrow.
	And hopefully someone will give me their name.
	Would you go and find that for me, mate?
	So I can't say it.
	Write it down.
	Bruce Lee.
	Yeah, I'll be with Ruslan tomorrow.
	At what time, CT? We'll be streaming live.
	We'll be streaming live at 2, CT, for episode 2 of Break Bread.
	2 at 2.
	If that ET, that's an hour earlier, right?
	1.
	And then PT, it's like, I don't know, you can do all of the clock maths.
	You've got that app on your phone, haven't you?
	But the fact is, it's live.
	So become an awakened wonder now, and I'll be talking to Ruslan.
	I watch his channel actually, but I'm just damned if I can say his name.
	Let's have a look at this episode, this little excerpt from episode one of Break Bread with Tucker.
	One of the things that makes no sense in human terms, why would you be against Christians?
	It's the world's only turn your other cheek religion that commands people to be faithful to their wives and, you know, work hard, be good citizens, obey temporal authority, like everything about Christians.
	And by the way, in some countries, I can think of one Middle Eastern Muslim country, for example, they want more Christians to move there because they're great citizens.
	So why would you be against Christians?
	Can you see that?
	Okay, so our other partners on the show today are Hartford Gold.
	I guess it's like looking for more permanent forms of investment in a transient, truculent and crazy time.
	Here's a message from them now.
	Hartford Gold.
	Always believe in your soul.
	You're indestructible.
	And the world feels insecure and uncertain, doesn't it?
	With rising prices, crazy debts.
	For those who are in the United States, thank God there's a way to secure your hard-earned nest egg.
	Protect that nest egg.
	Protect it at all costs.
	Place it beneath the buttock.
	Do something sensible.
	American Heart for Gold makes it easy to protect your savings and retirement accounts with physical gold and silver.

	American Heart for Gold has an A-plus rating from the BBB and thousands of satisfied clients.
	Right now, they will give you up to $15,000 of free silver on your first qualifying order.
	I want me some of this sweet silver.
	This offer, though, is only for U.S. customers.
	Call 866-505-8315 or text BRANDMYNAME to 98899.
	that's 866-505-8315 or text brand to 98899 get up to 15 000 dollars of silver and protect your future in this crazy world with solid precious metals literally made in stars apparently barack obama says he knew how to solve the pandemic and donald trump just straight up ignored him He ignored his pandemic playbook.
	Now, have you heard that?
	Have you seen that story?
	Myself?
	I hadn't heard that.
	Now, it's one of the great shows We're good to go.
	Now, what I suppose we're considering with the forthcoming election is which government is more likely to assert totalitarian control over the population.
	Is it likely to be the MAGA-Trump direction?
	I don't feel that's as likely since these whole RFK-Tulsi thing.
	Yeah, I'm moving between dimensions.
	I see that, guys.
	I can see that there's a problem with the stream.
	I'm hearing you guys.
	In fact, pop out there maybe now, Taylor, and mention to Dave and say, like, yeah, someone's on that, huh?
	Fantastic.
	Nice one.
	Well done.
	And I suppose it was a time of great revelation.
	It's interesting to hear what perspectives different political parties had on it.
	Now, remember, at the beginning of the pandemic, the Republican Party and Donald Trump were in control.
	By the end of it, Biden was in control.
	You let me know in the comments in the chat who you feel, and that would be a fire up the comments button, let me know who you feel handled it best.
	Let's have a look at Obama's claim that he had a playbook and that Trump ignored it.
	My last year in office, we put together a playbook for how to deal with the eventuality of a pandemic.
	Because scientists had been saying with globalization and travel, etc., rising populations, that at some point there was going to be a pandemic.
	And so I said to my team, I said, we got to have a plan, just like you do for hurricanes or tornadoes or natural disasters.
	So we put together this whole playbook.
	And we ran, we practiced the playbook.
	We get all the agencies.
	This is how we're going to respond.
	This is how to make Make sure that the public health systems in all the states are working.
	Here's how we're going to think about the schools.
	And when Donald Trump came in, we gave over this playbook to them.
	And But the point is, he and three years later, a pandemic hits.
	Now, I want to really be fair on this, but I want everybody to pay attention.
	No matter who was president at the time, this was going to be a problem.
	This was a generational pandemic.
	People were going to get sick.
	People were going to die.
	We didn't have a vaccine right away.
	Businesses were going to have.
	Travel was going to be restricted.
	But if you look at a country like Canada, their per capita debt Was 40% lower than it was here in the United States.
	So just do the math.
	That's more than 400,000 people.
	People's grandmothers.
	People's fathers.
	People's moms.
	Who would have been alive if Donald Trump had just paid attention and tried to follow the plan that we gave him.
	It might have been somebody in your family that could have been impacted.
	So, if somebody tells you that this doesn't make a difference, having somebody competent, somebody who cares about you, who listens to ordinary people, who listens to people who are experts in these areas, if you hear somebody say it doesn't matter, it does matter.
	And at some point, it will make a difference to them.
	See what Jay Bachari had to say about that.
	This ahistorical nonsense by Obama and the worst thing he's ever said is the worst thing he's ever said.
	Is he aware of the success of the Swedish non-lockdowns or the damage caused by the school closures?
	He should go back to being a retired president and stay out of public health.
	Bam.
	Now, clear that asset.
	Thanks.
	Go back to me on the output.
	Thank you.
	All right.
	Well, yeah, that's...
	That's a pretty damning indictment from Jay Bhattacharya, who I believe is the kind of person that should be running the National Institutions of Health.
	In conclusion, I suppose what we learned in the pandemic period is that it was a great opportunity for various powerful interests and it's still being used politically even now.
	And yet, what we're not seeing is the reckoning that ought take place.
	Maybe with Bobby Kennedy in a position of government, you would see Anthony Fauci and the many curious interests that appear to benefit from that period taken to task in some way.
	Now, let's have a look at what Bill Maher...
	Has to say when it comes to the subject of Elon Musk and how Democrats are mishandling the subject of free speech.
	Said this on his show, I figure.
	He's talking about how Democrats like Mark Cuban and Joe Scarborough are showing their hand when it comes to the subject of free speech in the way that they are treating Musk.
	Let's have a look at it.
	You could be one of the world's greatest entrepreneurs literally of the last century and be a fucking troll at the same time.
	Right.
	You know, people were shocked when Henry Ford, who created the modern age, went to testify on Capitol Hill.
	And what did historians say?
	Congressmen and senators were shocked how ignorant this guy was.
	I don't know Elon Musk.
	And an anti-Semite.
	And an anti-Semite.
	This is a guy who's one of the great minds of our time, and I hate that he's in the sewer with Twitter and doing all of this stuff.
	Support whoever you want to support, but again, there's so much disinformation that's being spread.
	Here's where the rubber meets the road, because this is important.
	He wanted to, this week, he's suing, but he's suing the 12-member commission, the California Coastal Commission.
	He launches his rockets from Vandenberg Space Force Base.
	He used to call it Air Force Base, but I guess now we're into Space Force time.
	He wanted the proposal to expand the number of launches.
	Okay, again, one of the most impressive companies, an American company.
	He wants a little more, give it to him.
	No.
	The commission, some bureaucrat, said, nope, and this is the reason why.
	Commissioner Carol Hart saying, we're dealing with a company, the head of which has aggressively injected himself into the presidential race and made it clear what his point of view is.
	Yes, because he lives in America.
	And he can do that.
	It has nothing to do with this.
	You know...
	The right thinks that the left is in a very different place with free speech than they have been before, and they're not wrong.
	You don't punish somebody.
	It would be like if we stopped Henry Ford from making the cars because we didn't like what he...
	Yeah, but can you take one anecdotal example?
	One idiot, right?
	Truly an idiot to stop...
	This is not an idiot.
	This is someone with power.
	Wow, massive transformation taking place before our very eyes.
	What we are witnessing, I suppose, is the end of the centralised power era.
	That means we're either going to experience mass authoritarianism in the name of safety.
	Convenience and aid and protection.
	Or mass decentralization of power.
	The signs have been there for a long while, whether it was Napster and the collapse of the record industry, or the Arab Spring, or the Occupy movement, or Brexit, or Trump.
	This needn't have the flavour of a particular political movement.
	It's led, after all, by technology in the same way that the emergence of the Bible required the proliferation of the technology to produce mass text indices and codices.
	We are going to enter a period of incredible liberty or we are going to be sunk by control.
	Which way will it go?
	Let me know in the comments and the chat how you think this election will inform that outcome.
	Those of you that have stayed with us in spite of the technical challenges that we're experiencing, thank you very much.
	I know the stream has been pretty difficult to watch.
	Thank you very much for staying with us, you lot.
	Okay, let's have a look now at Bobby Kennedy on Greg Gutfield's show.
	He's talking about the impact of a Zempick.
	And I suppose what we're about to witness there is the institution of a new drug, a new profit motive, a new way to turn your child into a mine to be plundered for lifelong profits.
	Let's have a look at that conversation now.
	I'm going to go to you, Bobby.
	This is your wheelhouse.
	So there's this new study suggesting that this miracle weight loss drug, Zempic, can also decrease opioid and alcohol abuse substantially, as well as reduce sleep apnea and cognitive decline, which sounds like great news.
	But I'm always suspect when a drug ends up getting more than one usage.
	It's like now it's got seven usage.
	Is this going to help make America healthy again?
	No.
	You know, I saw this headline yesterday, and I need to look at the methodology of that study because I don't believe it.
	The EU is right now investigating Ozempic for suicidal ideation.
	But, you know, it may be that the drug...
	Because it suppresses all the reward pathways, so it makes you want to do everything less.
	And that may be part of the answer for this.
	But the idea that a drug is going to cure drug addiction or alcoholism, we're spending $1,600 a month on this drug.
	There's a bill right now before Congress that will make it available to everybody who's overweight, which is 74% of the American population.
	That alone will cost three trillion dollars a year.
	If we spend about one-fifth of that giving good food, three meals a day, to every man, woman, and child in our country, we could solve the obesity and diabetes epidemic overnight.
	A tiny fraction of the cost.
	They're trying to sell this.
	There's a huge push to sell this to the American public.
	It's now the biggest company in Europe, but they're not marketing it in Europe.
	They make this drug in Denmark, and in Denmark they do not recommend it for diabetes or for obesity.
	They recommend dietary and behavioral changes.
	They're counting on selling it to Americans because we're so stupid and so addicted to drugs.
	There we go.
	Addiction driving the economy, whether it's the opioid crisis in the Sackler family or obesity and this new emergent miracle drug.
	How can we ever again be open-hearted and faithful when it comes to the claims of the pharmaceutical industry when we know that they are the beneficiaries of global tyranny?
	Now, let me know what you think about that in the comments in the chat.
	So to wrap up the show today, there's a few things I want to tell you about.
	One, if you haven't seen the Oracle series yet, you should have a look at it because the episode with Mike Benz is absolutely fantastic.
	It's available for you on Locals.
	And here is Mike Benz, who has helped me understand the deep state and its machinations more clearly and better than anyone else in this peculiar online alternate media space.
	Let's have a look.
	It's a domestic election, but most of the money, most of the power networks are basically competing foreign interests, lobbying for the soul of our domestic candidates.
	And you make an argument that it's been this way You know, for hundreds of years.
	There's always been a kind of aspect of this that's infused itself into American politics, but I think as the American empire has expanded, it has made the stakes even more dramatic for outside stakeholders, and it has made the maturity of this lobbying ecosystem ever more refined and powerful.
	It's a brilliant conversation.
	You can see it in full on Locals Now.
	Remember, tomorrow we're going to be talking to Reslan.
	It's our second episode of Break Bread with Russell Brand, where we talk in depth about the significance of emergent new spirituality, particularly in the form of Christianity, and the power that it has, I believe, uniquely to help us Avert what I imagine to be the advent of totalitarianism.
	In which form?
	Well, I suppose you would quarrel about that at the ballot box on the 5th of November.
	To bring the show to a conclusion, along with my incredible gratitude towards you for staying with us and the gratitude to the team here, many of whom are working just as a result of sheer faith alone, I want to talk to you about a bit of Bible study that I undertook the other day.
	It's the classic The most famous verse, perhaps the most famous New Testament verse.
	Let me know in the comments and chat if you agree with this.
	John 3.16.
	The verse is this, one that I, of course, will have to commit to memory.
	For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
	I was told that in a sense this verse contains within it the contract between us and God, the transition that takes place between the Testaments and through the birth, death and resurrection of Christ.
	Earlier we talked about the nature of God's love, a fiery and consuming love.
	C.S. Lewis points out that many of us do not consider The potency, power and awe that can be included in real love.
	Think of the love you have for your children.
	Think about the pain, anguish and glory in the love that you have felt romantically for people.
	Think about the love of country, the love of freedom, the love of principles.
	God's love would surely be the most powerful of all loves.
	Why would it not contain within it an aspect that is awesome and beyond what we can control?
	For God so loved, absolute power of God, so loved, maximal amount of love, the world, all of us, that he gave, kindest, most gracious act, his one and only son, the greatest sacrifice, that whoever believes in him, all of us can be included, shall not perish but have eternal life, the greatest promise.
	Contained in this verse is nothing short of the offering that Christianity entails.
	An end to the enchantment of materialism and worldliness.
	An end to self-obsession.
	An end to carnality.
	It's certainly not a claim I'm making for myself because, like you, I'm guessing, I'm pretty fallen.
	And I struggle here on this plane, in this realm, in this dimension.
	But what I'm becoming increasingly certain of is that solutions are unavailable to us through materialism, rationalism, politics and bureaucracy, that we are indeed going to have to return to Christ, that what we're being offered through Christianity is the solution that's being evaded.
	And that's precisely why we're being told that Christianity represents some kind of patriarchal tyranny, when what's plainly stitched through an inclusive love.
	That love don't come without obligation and duty.
	That love might be on the precipice of.
	It might be time for us to consider this relationship anew.
	A love that is absolute, inclusive, all powerful and all abiding.
	That's why as we continue to talk about the complex politics of your country and indeed the world, I will be drawing my wisdom, such as it is, from this great text from the Word, the place from which my faith is derived.
	And I hope it's a conversation you'll join me in.
	That's why we're doing Break Bread with Russell Brand.
	That is available for our Awakened Wonders on Locals.
	Click the link available to you in the chat right now and join us for that tomorrow.
	We've obviously got a lot of technical things to work out before tomorrow, but we will be back At the same time tomorrow, not with more of the same, but with more of the different.
	If you can, until then, stay free.
	Credits.
