Time Text
Thank you.
In this video, you're going to see the future.
you next time.
Hello, you awakening wonders.
Thanks for joining me today for Stay Free with Russell Brand.
Thank you, Tim Poole and Tim Kast for the raid.
Thank you, Crowder and Mug Club.
And you glorious Overspill from Bongino's Army.
Thanks for joining us.
Wherever you're watching, X or YouTube, make your way to Rumble.
That's our home and indeed the home of free speech itself.
And if you don't have Rumble Premium yet, get Rumble Premium now so you can get additional content from us, an additional hour each week, as well as an ad-free experience.
A smooth and a sloopy Oh yeah, baby!
Them... Are some smooth and lubricated politicians running the UK right now?
You only need to look at the news to see that the prison planet penitentiary that is the UK is a theme park and the theme is absolute control.
Today we're going to be covering some of the great stories from the week.
Callie Means on the front line talking about RFK at Politico as the mainstream media tries to impose old school ideas on new emerging maha-oriented health edicts.
We're going to be talking too about war, whether or not Noah!
And another day, another tariff.
Oh, my God.
How many more tariffs?
Noah! Oh!
Larry, what the hell are you doing?
Larry! Larry, you can't just...
Oh, are you alright?
Wherever you're watching us, X, YouTube, make your way over to Rumble, get Rumble Premium or we will tariff you so high.
In fact, Rumble Premium amounts to a tariff.
I'm joined today by our team here, Jake and Isaac are over there with their very distinct faiths, contributing marginally more than the ape depicted on the wall behind them.
Also, we have our social media manager, Luke, who's...
A man of great faith.
Look at him.
Look at these ways he arranged his environment.
Isn't he lovely?
And Massey there, probably a bit too close to his camera.
Let's have a look.
Let's have a look at this.
The tariffs.
I mean, have we frozen tariffs now?
Are tariffs at the same level?
I don't know.
China. We need independence.
Yep. And what's your message to...
Have you seen Donald Trump?
Do you think he should step in?
Donald Trump don't trust China!
China is asshole!
That's some good stuff.
That's got to be in Hong Kong, right?
I love that report.
That dude, he works at Rebel News, don't he?
You watched him...
Trouble people at Davos.
He ain't playing.
That dude is Australian.
He ain't scared.
He gets right up in people's faces.
Okay, let's have a look at Trump's fans trolling leftists wearing Make America Gay Again hat.
And actually, you know, people be gay.
Make America Gay.
I like your MAGA hat.
Yeah, Trump.
It says gay.
Oh, I know.
Trump fan.
Never know.
Trump? No.
It says make America gay again.
Great again.
Gay! I know, but we love Trump, right?
There you go.
The culture war continues.
I've got the mic in my leg, oh baby.
Mute the mics, Isaac, until needed.
Thank you, darling.
Although I'm glad that people are laughing.
Okay, let's have a look at what's going on.
I need more information on this number four.
Who we are!
So we tell them!
So we tell them!
We are the union!
We are the union!
We can't really get behind that, can you?
Federal employees are showing up not to work, but to protest returning to work.
It even goes further than that, Maria.
Things as outrageous as trying to get workers back into the office.
We actually had workers that showed up at the office to protest having to come back to work at the office.
So we're finding all kinds of things with the...
I only came here to get directions for how to get away from here.
With the Doge work, the squeal work that I have done for 10 years, and thank heavens we have President Trump and Doge, the Office of Government Efficiency, that's finally cracking down on these types of activities.
The United Kingdom has become a theme park and the theme of that park is absolute control.
There's nothing they won't leverage to deploy more mechanics of control.
Now they want digital IDs, they want centralized currencies, they want you to stay in your home.
All the while there's some extraordinary private lives going on inside Westminster.
As you know, one of Keir Starmer's close friends has been arrested on suspicion of Peter.
Innocent until proven guilty.
Sometimes I think that's a phrase that needs to be brought to the very forefront of everyone's mind, but right now, UK facial recognition is being rolled out in the British town, Welsh, particularly of Cardiff.
This is a train at Cardiff Central and we saw police putting up signs to warn people that live facial recognition is going up all around Cardiff City Centre today.
Live facial recognition is usually deployed on the back of vans scanning people walking down the street.
But this time South Wales Police have put it on the top of loads of lampposts, cameras all around the city centre, meaning that everyone in Cardiff City Centre today is going to get scanned by these cameras and their face checked against the wall.
Yeah, yeah, it's working now.
Yeah, is it working?
Yeah, yeah.
Any rest?
No, no.
No trouble?
No trouble at all.
It seems quite calm.
It's always very good.
Yeah. Very elegant.
Now let me know in the comments and chat if you are pleased, excited or disappointed and concerned since Trump took office.
Is this the government you voted for when it comes to subjects as important as global peace, brokering for war, whether it comes to the reckoning that ought be faced by the pharmaceutical industry, big food and big agriculture.
I would argue that in that area at least there is progress all because of the list of names that I mention continually on the show.
Bobby Kennedy, Dr. Oz, Cali Means is among them.
And of course, Jay Bhattacharya and Marty Makkari, all who have high-profile jobs one way or another or significant influence within the aspect of American life that's so important.
Health, both psychological and spiritual, based on nutritional, good food practices and not taking medicine that could fundamentally, well, kill you.
This is a conversation that took place at a Politico event.
Politico, as you know, used to be funded by the same groups that fund Wall Street Journal.
and I don't know how much Politico is still in the Hocker legacy media, but certainly Callie Means gets a lot of pushback when he advocates for Bobby Kennedy's new matchup.
We'll be back in a minute and we'll be talking about all manner of things, including trans sports.
John Oliver advocates for more, I guess, sort of trans sports.
Folks will be analysing that.
Let me know what you think, by the way, in the comments and chat on the very day that there was a pool tournament in the UK, my beloved country, now a penitentiary island where people are jailed for social media posts, and less, of course, they're government paedophiles, and they seem to get extraordinary love.
What's going on lately there is that there's a female pool tournament where both the finalists were trans men.
Let me know in the comments and chat what you think about that.
Also, like, pool...
It ain't strength or speed or anything.
There's no advantage actually to testosterone there.
Anyway, we'll work it out.
Let's have a look at Cali Means at this Politico event.
It's really good because Cali Means is one of the people that helped me to understand that we're essentially fed en masse a bunch of foods that are essentially toxic and poisonous.
Seed oils, high fructose, sucrose, terrible dyes, all that stuff that we're familiar with now thanks to the Maha movement.
And let us not forget for a moment that Bobby Kennedy was more outspoken than anyone when it came to talking about the pandemic, when it came to talking about Anthony Fauci, when it came to talk about bioweapons, lab leaks, deep state involvement and the control of a global population that took place in that pandemic period.
Here, Cali Means advocates for him quite brilliantly.
You are going to love this.
No, here's the fucking news!
Oh no!
Oh no!
Breakfast cereal is poisonous!
Oh no!
People that make food and medicine benefit from us being ill!
That actually makes sense economically.
If you make medicine, you want people sick.
Huh. Callie Means has long been a friend of our show and he's one of the reasons that I believe that the HHS will improve significantly under Bobby Kennedy.
Callie Means is a former employee of Coca-Cola turned whistleblower and now expert in nutrition, but not only what we should eat and what we shouldn't eat, what we should put in our mouths and what we shouldn't put in our mouths, but what we should allow into our consciousness.
Here is Kelly Means appearing at a Politico conference
Remember that Politico is funded in all sorts of interesting and extraordinary ways, where he's given the opportunity to oppose some people that query not only his perspectives, but the Maha movement more generally.
And I suppose if I was to define the Maha movement, is if MAGA is Donald Trump and the kind of libertarian, free market, America first, kind of no-nonsense robustness that Trump represents, then Maha is Bobby Kennedy.
Health, wellness, anti-corruption, trying to awaken and enlighten yourself and others.
Here, in this clip, Cali Means defends the MAHA movement from many of its detractors.
Let's watch it together.
What the voters are trying to say, and I think they were right, is that the system is really on the wrong track.
That the existing health authorities, just demonstrably, the NIH oversaw, and this is just consensus at this point, the creation, the literal creation.
Don't they excite you to see that getting said publicly by an employee of the HHS and therefore of your American government, that the pandemic was literally a creation?
Doesn't that seem like a massive evolution?
Doesn't that seem significant to you?
A significant change in the public discourse from the, hey, the kind of sort of dumb and infantilized, save a life, wash your hands, wear a mask, now is people that are...
Significant and influential in government saying it was a creation.
And in fact, I can't think of anyone more peripheral and radical when it comes to that issue than Bobby Kennedy.
These people now are in a genuine position of power.
So whatever the MAGA Trump administration isn't at the moment, it's certainly a massive advance on the kind of inoculated and ridiculous materialism and imperialism that preceded it.
The NIH, whose goal is to promote American health, has overseen a devastation, just an abject devastation in American health over the past 20 years, with disease rates skyrocketing in America, leading the world of almost every single chronic disease, with rates of nearly every single chronic disease being at an all-time high among kids.
There's been very little innovation with small pharma, with innovative therapeutics at the FDA.
It costs a billion dollars to get through the process.
CMS is an agency that's...
You know, a much larger budget than the Defense Department that's controlled by the American Medical Association, which is a pharmaceutical lobbying group and is almost predominantly sick care.
So there's real problems, and when you turn on CNBC, it's just a nonstop...
It's a non-stop infomercial for pharma.
It's a Sky Rizzy commercial followed by Scott Gottlieb saying how Bobby's killing people followed by a breathless coverage of the measles outbreak and no mention of the mental health crisis.
But Kelly, how does cutting a bunch of HHS solve that problem?
It is insane.
It is insane for you to insinuate that the thing standing between us and better health is more government bureaucrats.
That's not what I'm insinuating.
That is what everyone's saying.
It is absolutely insane to insinuate that it's some crime.
It's not all bureaucrats.
It's a lot of scientists.
It's researchers.
It's people who are making sure that our systems are safe.
Those scientists fundamentally have overseen, just demonstrably, a record of utter failure.
Of utter failure.
Well, and that is the kind of science that you can follow, isn't it?
What are the results of their scientific endeavour?
What clinical trials were the NIH funding?
What clinical trials were they not?
Here's a couple of examples.
What kind of vaccine trials are undertaken?
Why is it that only now, under Bobby Kennedy, there are going to be clinical trials, significant clinical trials, into any connection between childhood autism and the childhood vaccine schedule?
It doesn't hurt to ask those questions.
Remember, if you have a principled belief in a scientific theory, then the way to demonstrate it is through clinical trial, through empiricism.
Then it's no longer a theory, it's...
Cast iron facts.
Now let's look at the facts of the pandemic era, which has brought about to some degree this new political era.
We were misled by the media.
Why would they do that?
Is it connected to their commercial relationships?
Is it to do with their ownership models?
Is it to do with the kind of convergence of interests that George Carlin articulately described?
That the government...
Global bureaucracies and global corporate entities have the same general agenda.
You don't need a formal conspiracy when interests converge.
These people went to the same universities and fraternities, they're on the same boards of directors, they're in the same country clubs, they have like interests, they don't need to call a meeting, they know what's good for them.
I.e.
populations that are docile, malleable,...dispondent and controllable, looking to resolve emotional and spiritual problems through commercial means, certainly not vibrant, vital, and opposed to hypocrisy and corruption, willing to take control of their own lives and their own communities,
to kill and die for what they believe in, kill only when absolutely necessary, obviously, but to die for what you believe in, that's not the kind of population that the system benefits from, and it's not the kind of perspective they've created through their culture.
What we have now is the opportunity to take back...
The control and reigns of our own lives, individually, collectively, internationally, and indeed globally, by embracing a spiritual power that's accessible and available to all of us, that I have found through Christ Jesus, and as far as I know, that's the only way.
You might have different ways of accessing it.
It's interesting to me that many of the people involved in this movement are also Christian.
Let me know what you think about that in the comments and the chat.
But when it comes to the subject of science, we can see the success of previous administrations by measuring the facts.
And it seems that, when it comes to food, when it comes to drugs, It would be insane.
Is that funny?
Is that not true?
I'd love to hear how...
So what metrics would you guys point to?
For how the scientific community, how the four times more per capita on healthcare spending that we spend in America versus other countries has produced innovation.
Well, this is good.
I like seeing Cali means in this mode.
Cali means in battle mode.
Has there been one single chronic disease medication in modern American history that has lowered rates of the chronic disease?
Is it appropriate that the American Academy of Pediatrics right now, which is 90% funded by pharma...
That's the wrong shot to go to, by the way.
That jib shot is sort of looming.
Get close on Kelly.
Get a cutaway of the guy in the crowd!
...is pushing Ozipic on six-year-olds.
That is what the medical authorities are doing.
Why not then use the power that you guys have to push the existing infrastructure in that direction instead of slashing it altogether?
It's not slashing.
It's taking it back to 2017 levels.
That's not slashing.
The amount of bureaucrats...
More like 2002 levels, actually.
In many cases, it's actually just not that much.
But it is cutting...
What is it?
20,000 people?
It's taking the HHS back to 68,000 employees.
It is absolutely, like the idea that Bobby Kennedy should not come in and make dramatic changes to the leadership and the personnel at these authorities that have overseen an abject devastation of American health.
Which the lobbyists in this room do not have the humility to admit that we have gone completely wrong.
The lobbyists in this room are laughing when we have the sickest children in the developed world.
If you guys, if that is your attitude, and your attitude is to tell the maha moms that their votes and their voice is not legitimate, that we need dramatic changes to American healthcare, if you think it is illegitimate for Bobby Kennedy to not make big changes to people like Peter Marks,
Again and again and again went against FDA advisory opinions who fired the two top vaccine makers.
The two top vaccine scientists at the FDA for suggesting that we shouldn't mandate COVID shots for soldiers.
Now, in 2025, do you believe that they should have mandated COVID shots for soldiers, for nurses, looking at the rise of heart disease and turbo cancers and a variety of other conditions?
Do you think it should be mandated now that you know what you know about who it is that's likely to suffer or even die as a result of the coronavirus?
Do you believe it should be mandated?
And wasn't there indeed then a significant requirement for radical change, the kind of radical changes?
That Bobby Kennedy appears to be bringing about within the HHS.
Would you agree?
Who continually, continually went against expert opinion in favor of the pharmaceutical industry, who many people here were collaborating with him with.
The fact that somebody like that can't be fired, and he can't install tremendous people like Marty McCary and Jay Bhattacharya and Dr. Oz to start reforming these agencies and put in their people, of course he should do that.
That's what people voted for.
There you go.
Democracy in action.
As I've told you before, I know Marty Macari, Jay Bhattacharya, Dr. Oz, and I would say that to varying degrees, all of those people I even know well personally or have studied their work and what they talk about publicly.
We couldn't be in a better position when I say we, I mean the people of America than with those people in charge of our health, certainly under Bobby Kennedy.
When you look at what preceded it and the fact that Anthony Fauci is still out there peddling treachery and looking at ways that he can, through his public life, advance the interest of the pharmaceutical industry and continue to ensure that people are spiritually sick and operating on a low frequency.
We are in a much better and improved situation with Bobby Kennedy, Dr. Oz, Jay Bhattacharya, Cali Means himself and Marty Makari in positions of power.
These are principled men who are telling you exactly what they believe and now what they believe will be clinically tested through scientific trials before enacted as policy.
That seems to me to be a radical upgrade on what preceded it.
But that's just what I think.
Let me know what you think in the comments and the chat.
*music* Now here's the fucking news!
We can't make this content without the support of our partners.
Here's a quick message from one now.
1775, delicious coffee.
This is new longevity coffee.
The benefits of coffee, the buzz, the fun, the loose stools.
And now you live...
For sweet lady eternity, why not?
Rumble just launched the first anti-aging coffee.
And no, it's not brewed in Fauci's lab.
That stinking stuff.
Stop using gain-of-function.
What if a virus was created that made your dick fall off?
Let's invent one, and then a vaccine for it.
No, just stop doing it!
Stop doing that stuff!
This will make you younger without the side effects of, you know, Wuhan.
This is not made in Wuhan.
Clan, yes.
Lab, no.
A 1775 dropped a thousand longevity bundles.
Most of them were sold in seconds after freedom-loving folk like you rushed in.
It was like it was the toilet paper of 2020.
Remember those days, kids?
They extended for sale and have added a few more.
Now it's the final push.
I don't like having final push so close to the word of toilet paper.
It makes you start thinking like...
The lip curler.
Once it's gone, it's gone.
Like your trust in the FDA before the great Marty Makary took the reins.
For $99, you're getting $250 in value.
And essentially, you're stealing $151.
I'm not good at maps.
Two bags of longevity coffee infused with C-A-A-K-G to support cellular health and reduce biological age.
Yes, they're selling biological egg tests soon so you can prove to your mates you're biologically younger than your vegan cousin Chad.
To hell with you, Chad.
Plus, an ultra-rare pea berry roast.
Don't be this grow-up.
That makes up less than 5% of global crops.
Kind of like honest politicians.
We've only got Bobby.
It's all single origin, small farm, small batch, and scores over 85. No bitter burnout, no sugary sludge, no mystery flavors cooked up in a corporate lab.
Just clean, bold coffee that actually tastes like coffee and makes you younger.
Take that, Chuck Norris.
Every dollar you spend gets you one entry to win the old Cybertruck.
We're still pushing that thing.
And $30,000 of cash.
That's 99 entries locked in.
And with less than a month left, this bundle guarantees you a real shot.
Head to 1775coffee.com slash brand
Last bundle's gone.
Fuel up, live long, and start your morning with coffee that stands for something.
Go to 1775coffee.com forward slash brand.
Let's live forever, baby.
Okay, wherever you're watching this, X or YouTube, ultimately, we want you to join us on Rumble.
Thanks for the raid, Tim Pool.
Thank you, Mug Club.
Thank you, Bongino Army, Bongino Army, Bongino Army.
We're leaving you, YouTube.
We can't stay there for another second, not while you continue to bow down and kowtow to globalist agendas and decrees.
I can afford this shit.
I can afford it.
That's all you need to know about me.
Okay, we'll be back.
In a matter of seconds.
In fact, we're going to continue right now with some input and insights from the team.
Now, I don't know if you, like me, are a fan of The Chosen.
I love Dallas Jenkins, the creator of the show.
I love his wife, Amanda Jenkins.
I love the star, Jonathan Rumi.
Jesus is my body double.
I'm a big fan of The Chosen.
And when The Chosen goes quiet, i.e.
it's pre, you know, we're not in, they're in production, I think, for season six and some of season five has been released.
Let me know in the comments and chat if you've seen it.
I get very...
What do I get?
I miss it.
I miss it, and I'm looking for another show to watch.
Now, Jake is the producer of the show and the leader of this kind of little battalion of Lost Boys.
Thanks for staying with us, guys.
I really appreciate that, by the way, at this difficult time.
How have you been coping with the chosen not being on TV?
What is it that you do, and how do you pass the time?
I'm assuming, as a Christian man, it's not through mindless acts of fornication and self-abuse.
No, I mean, I think you're just left with the old-fashioned Bible.
Just jump it straight into the holy arms of the Lord.
It's just the word of God.
Not televised.
I'm not willing to go to that kind of...
For the Father himself loves you because you have loved me and have believed that I came forth from God.
Oh, so beautiful, isn't it?
Just to hear the love, the simplicity, the necessary incarnation of holy power in flesh, knowing that we and our own weak flesh can become empowered if we submit to him that...
First light.
Also, though, I happen to know that you watch The House of David.
I'm worried, though, that House of David is the poor man's chosen.
And I don't mean that offensively to Isaac, who is, let's face it, one of the chosen people.
Isn't he?
He's a Red Sea pedestrian.
He lets us know all the time.
He's an APAC contributor.
He lets us know all the time.
Eh? We need to be reminded.
Okay, so tell me, let's talk a little bit about the House of David.
What are you saying, mate?
Yeah, so we talked about this before.
When you grow up in America, a lot of the Christian media, entertainment, the stories, they're not very good.
They're not done very well.
Well, they make it cheesy or something.
It's just cheesy.
They can't really show details.
It's like you don't understand what the full story is because you know sex was going on, but they can't actually show that sort of thing.
Everybody has to be covered up.
The story is not very good.
It's just bad.
So when you start seeing good media coming out like The Chosen, that's cool.
Playful, still biblical.
Good actors, good-looking actors, reverent.
Then you got House of David, which is like the number one show on the show.
I've been worried about it.
I've worried that...
I thought it was Poor Man's Chosen.
No, so like I would say...
Knockoff Chosen.
I would say House of David.
Like how people say you're the knockoff me.
Yeah, I'm the Timu Russell Brand.
Is it Timu Chosen?
No. That's my concern.
I'd say Chosen's like more playful, joking, different things like that.
There's some scenes in House of David you've got to cover the kids' eyes.
Oh yeah, it gets a bit saucy.
It gets a little scary.
We're not there yet.
We're not on the Bathsheba.
We're just David and Goliath.
He got amongst it, didn't he, David?
That's the whole first season.
Yeah, go on.
So tell me, what have you bought?
You've bought some content.
Tell me why you've bought it and what it is.
So tying it all together from last week, talking about AI Bible stories, even Massey, as an Iranian-Canadian atheist, was very interested in this AI.
Bible story.
And so this intro is explaining where the Giants came from.
Using AI already, not just, hey, what happens when they use AI?
Here it already is in a very popular show, and I think it's brilliantly done.
Let's have a look then at this clip that suggests that Goliath may himself be Nephilim that are spoken about in Genesis when the fallen angels took the sons of man to their beds.
A breed of giants were born.
There's a lot of stuff that I encounter in Genesis that really sparks my interest as a marginal peripheral conspiracy interest type person, conspiracy theory type person.
I mean, you know, like when you watch Graham Hancock talking about the pyramids, you know, last week when we talked about the pyramids might be generators of energy.
You know, when you start to entertain the idea, say, if you like David Icke, who's coming on the show soon, by the way, so watch out for that, when he says that there are races of beings that are, you know, like, excuse me.
Reptilians or aliens or interdimensional entities that have taken control.
I often wonder how scripture handles that, and I love Bill Hicks, so I love that, you know, dinosaur fossils type joke stuff.
But I also want to see what the origins of the Nephilim are.
Let's have a look at a clip from House of David, in particular what Jake's chosen is the origin of the Nephilim and the peculiar history of a crazy old underdog called Goliath who tried his best out there but was undone by a plucky shepherd boy.
It all began in the days of the Great Rebellion, when the angels of heaven sought after the Eternal Throne.
They rose in defiance, but were defeated and cast out.
They fell onto the earth, these angels, cast out by God or tasked with watching the sons of men.
It is not truly enough.
While some planet has left,
You know, that's one of my favourite bits of scripture.
I was there when Satan fell from heaven like lightning.
And I know elsewhere in that verse it talks about you will walk on cobras and among serpents and scorpions because your names are written in heaven.
And I do consider the motif and idea of the fallen angel to be humankind's tendency to carve aside kingdoms for ourselves, kingdoms of sin and attempts to defibrillate low chakra energy.
An Eastern mysticist might say, I like seeing that image of the fallen angel as a sort of an argument.
I mean, it's beautiful.
Beautiful to see it visually.
Because you don't think about all those details.
I mean, you read it and you kind of have ideas in your mind, but when you can see that, it's anything that tries to get power away from God, which is ultimately what we fight with the world.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Anything that tries to repurpose and redirect God's power.
I know I've been guilty of that.
That's sort of how I like to live.
I like to think, I want to be in control.
And in fact, let's face it, the whole culture is about you personally being in control.
That's why it's sort of ridiculous.
And it's something I wanted to touch upon, actually, guys, if we can find it.
Because popular British comedian and actor Steve Coogan was talking about how Jesus Christ would have been a socialist.
That's a subject I'd really like to unpack.
Let me know in the comments and chat, would Jesus Christ have been a socialist, would he have been a republican, or do you think that he would have tried to convey supernatural forces, that we would have ethics and morality that transcended what is merely political and based on resources?
Let me know, you're pretty clear what I think.
Let's go back to the house of David and the falling of Luciferian forces that perhaps to this day provide a foundation for sin, even when it's me and you.
Others say it is true, a story passed down.
Born for generations.
Born unto men who have fair and beautiful daughters, bearing the image of God.
Some angels saw them and found themselves filled with craven desire.
The sky is the sky.
I always wonder about carnality in scripture, because there's some pretty wacky stuff in the early books, isn't there?
Like, even these fallen angels, after you've seen them fall down with them great big swan's wings, like that geezer out of X-Men, you know, that's got the swan wings in the...
That has the fight.
Isaac will probably know his name, won't he?
Who has he called him?
Has he called Angel?
I think he's literally called Angel.
I think so.
What's he called?
I think he's called Angel.
Yeah, I think he's called Angel.
Them guys coming down from heaven like that and getting the horn.
About the Daughters of Man.
I'm like, that's interesting.
But you want to read that Sodom and Gomorrah gear, innit?
There's a bit in there, in Genesis, where it goes, them angels come to warn a lot, don't they?
And the townspeople come out and go, alright, get them geezers out, we want to have it off with them.
And Lot has to go, no, no, no, no.
And in my view, incorrectly, offers up his own daughters.
I mean, there's some crazy stuff.
Crazy. We've got to come to terms with, you know, Isaac, your hands ain't clean on this one either, because that, I believe, is one of your Jewish books.
It is.
We were hoping Isaac was going to bring some expertise since it's the Old Testament and that's supposed to be all he really knows.
Well, that's right.
You guys think that I'm some sort of scholar on the Old Testament because I'm the only Jew you guys know, I guess.
But he's not.
I actually do know a lot of Jews, but the main one is Jesus.
And that's the only one that you can really trust.
Thank you.
I mean, they're gorgeous, aren't they, these Nephilim?
They're not going to have trouble pulling, like with them shepherdesses and all those poor girls living down there in the ravines and stuff.
They're going to be all over.
Oh, no!
And the leader, Shamiazar, said unto the others, Let us choose wives from the daughters of men, and let us beget for ourselves children.
threat
And so it was.
And from that union sprang forth something other than sons of men.
Giants. Born from a forbidden union.
Men of renowned and great ability.
They walk the earth as gods among us.
I'm not sure about this voiceover.
I'll tell you that.
It's a little bit of unions from...
What are you saying?
I mean, you're an atheist, Massey.
How's it hitting you?
I like it, but the voiceover, this is about Jews, right?
Is it?
I don't know.
I can't work it out.
Maybe racist, but yes.
She's Iranian, that chick who's speaking now, so they've got the wrong...
That's completely the wrong person to have for that.
Is that an Iranian accent?
You can tell.
Yeah, because she was like the people and all that stuff.
I know the actress.
She's an Iranian actress.
She's been in loads of stuff.
So she's in The Expanse and stuff like that.
So I don't know how the Jews would feel about having an Iranian chick narrating there.
Well, I think things are going pretty well between Israel and Iran at the moment.
And those two nations are embraced in holy brotherhood across the desert sands is what I'd say.
Luke, mate, what are you thinking?
Have you made the move from Chosen to House of David?
I'm still behind.
I'm in like season two of The Chosen.
I need to catch up.
You call yourself a Christian, and you all sat around in season two, when Jesus ain't even got proper long hair yet.
You want to dedicate yourself to the Lord.
I've seen season one like three times, so I really liked it, and then I've gotten behind, so I've got to catch up.
Is this real?
Because this looks like AI, this House of David.
Is that actually real?
I mean, they're very sexy.
They're really focusing on the sexiness.
I can see why you wouldn't let your multitude of children watch it, Jake.
I mean, but that's the part that's like...
I mean, it's like you said.
The Bible is...
It's got some very interesting stuff in it.
I know.
I do wonder about that when I'm sort of embracing the Holy Book and I come across something like Genesis, like Lot and the daughters and that kind of stuff.
I mean, obviously, it's an instruction pamphlet.
It's not a lifestyle guide.
It's telling...
Telling you what not to do.
But they're really glamorizing it.
A lot of these Nephilim, they're absolutely gorgeous, aren't they?
Those poor ladies didn't stand a chance.
Well, I just think, man, even those fallen angels were like, these are some good-looking ladies down here.
Well, if they're good enough for the fallen angels, they're good enough for me, I would say.
But, of course, I'm happily married these days, and let's keep it nice and vanilla.
Let's go back to the rest of the trailer.
But God punished the angels for their sin and banished them into eternal darkness, never to walk the earth again.
All that was left was the sire of their rebellion, feared and hunted by men.
All that was left was the sire of their rebellion.
They are you, my children.
You are the last of the Nephilim.
You are the last of the Nephilim.
If all that you say is true.
And why do we still hide in this cave?
Is that Goliath?
That's Goliath.
Because he's a bit mongy, isn't he?
I've always thought that that's what Goliath would be.
Hey there!
I'm gonna go fight me dead boy with a sling!
Like, he's a big...
He's a bit like them...
Who's that Appalachian family?
They call that the Wintons.
Something like that.
I always thought Goliath was going to have an airy inbred.
I didn't think he was going to look like those angel men with the rippling abs.
I've always thought of Goliath as a big idiot.
And even Yuval Noah Harari, who's sort of one of the advocates for the WEF, he wrote a book about the encounter between David and Goliath, where he sort of argued that Goliath would have been some wheezing asthmatic, and David, using an intelligent projectile, brought him down.
which is funny because people that don't believe in the Bible sometimes use biblical stories and scriptures to illustrate almost rationalist, materialist stories when really it's the mythic truths as well as the historic truths that I'm interested in unpacking.
And they're rendering Goliath kind of how I thought he would come across as a bit of a nitwit in a cave.
Yeah, Malcolm Gladwell's got the book where he's talking about how Gladwell thought it was his advantage being a giant, but it was actually his disadvantage.
He couldn't see very good.
Yeah. You know, and David brought, you know, an air war.
And Goliath's like, you've got to get close to fight me because I'm big and slow.
He's a bit like Mungo from Blazing Saddles, is how I would see it.
Like, you bring in a big, hefty guy, or in the world of wrestling, he's going to be very much Undertaker versus nimble...
Rey Mysterio or somebody that's jumping off and flipping people over.
Yeah, yeah.
Who's the one that Down Syndrome folks like in the analysis of Shane?
John Senna, Shane Gillis says.
Yeah, so David Goliath is really much the John Senna versus Undertaker of the scriptural times with a real victory there.
I reckon that's enough for me to watch it, but it's interesting to learn from Massey there that that's an Iranian actress.
Yeah, Studio Ghibli is like...
World-renowned animation.
I've put a video there which shows that it took like a year and three months to do just one four-second scene.
It's this really unique animation style that people like.
But now AI is catching up with it and recreating that stuff which takes those guys forever to make.
So you might want to watch that first asset just to see the type of artwork and then we can take a look at some of the stuff that's happening in the culture around it.
I don't know about you guys, I'm a big fan of Studio Ghibli, probably my favourite film is Spirit Away, but I also like Princess, what's the Princess one?
She's alright, there's the other one, what's the more modern one that's not by the same director?
Like this one, Kagawa, Princess Kagawa.
That was a really, that's a very, very beautiful film.
And what I like watching them films for is to see that there's a separate mythology in Japan and to see it rendered there, to see the fairy stories brought alive.
That Spirit Away is my favourite one, but also like Howl's Moving Castle.
That's pretty sick and amazing.
But I don't know quite why it is that it's become sort of a phenomenon.
It's a bit like when you see J.D. Vance done as a Chucky-style baby with his neatly groomed beard.
Like, what is it that makes a good meme?
Let me know what you think about that in the comments and chat, by the way.
If you're watching us on Rumble, we'll be with you for about another 40 minutes before we get into Studio Ghibli and the ingenuity that can now be so easily parroted by AI. Here's a quick message from one of our partners.
Free speech is under attack, but Rumble Premium refuses to back down.
I won't back down.
Like Thomas Petty, you know, he went back with...
Actually dead.
But we're actually better than Tom Petty.
We've always believed in empowering voices, no matter how unpopular, and now we're taking the fight to the next level.
When major advertisers conspired, yeah, conspired, to pull their dollary-dos, even brands like Dirty Dunkin' Donuts, which I think of as being a bit like the Dunkin' Donut of that Tesla guy that wiped his hand on his butt.
Remember him?
This guy?
Dunkin' Donuts is the donut equivalent of that.
There's free speech hate in pigs.
Claiming that Rumble had a right-wing culture.
How dare they?
I mean, look at just some of these comments.
Rumble does not have a right-wing culture.
We are doing our very best to include everyone.
That's from a Mr. A. Hitler.
Look at this one.
Rumble is my favourite site.
I love it.
I listen to it every night by firelight.
That's from a Mr. Ku Klux Klan.
Like, how can anyone have a problem with Rumble?
One of the great stations.
We're not here to fit a mould.
We're here to defend free expression.
That is the milk of free speech coming out of the tit.

Drawing a crowd takes time and effort, so animators generally avoid it, but not Miyazaki.
I don't want to be able to do this.
Everyone gathers once a week to view the rushes.
This allows Miyazaki to check the completed shots with his own eyes.
This shot is only four seconds long.
It took the team a year and three months to complete.
Yeah, I mean, it's sort of beautiful and arduous, and in a sense it's a good way of examining the new ability of AI and intelligence of this scale.
It does, of course, have the potentiality to render all but irrelevant human creativity, and it's an ongoing conversation.
What I really like about Studio Ghibli or Ghibli myself is that they have this obvious and evident reverence for aesthetics that you see all over Japanese culture, I suppose.
We've like their ironwork or their illustrations or their fabrics and textiles, their architecture.
There's a kind of meticulous and fastidious neatness to Japan, partly due, I suppose, because of their unique history and how long they were isolationist, even with imperialism knocking on their door in a variety of forms, whether that was American
or the ongoing onslaught of Chinese power.
But it's interesting to see that it's something that can now, something that would have took a lifetime,
And I think that's analogous even to something that probably a lot of you care more about, like pornography.
Think about how often you would encounter a naked body back in the good old Nephilim days.
You'd have to wait for one of them bewinged pervs to come a-tumbling down from a thunderstorm.
Now you just have to flick into your phone, nothing but people sniffing around each other's buttholes all day long.
Sodom and Gomorrah look like Chuck E. Cheese and probably smell like it as well.
Put that in your pipe and smoke it.
So, Massey, what is it that you like about it, mate, while we look at some of these images?
This is like some of the AI stuff.
So, yeah, you've got Bernie on the right there.
These are like popular memes on the left.
Why is it happening?
Hey, it's me!
Who made me?
You. I did that one of you earlier.
I look better.
So I did that in like five minutes.
Five minutes was on that, but people are really upset about the Trump and JD Vance one.
Why? Because you're taking this glorious art form, which is taking this guy forever to make, and then you're using it for political reasons.
So the next video is Ghibli's creator responding to AI-generated images in general.
I think one of his team brought it to him.
And you just see the disdain he has for it.
And this is before he's even seen his stuff getting used.
But he says a really interesting thing about why he doesn't like it, which I want your take on.
That's brilliant.
I'm really interested to say that because even before, if you think of the insult against a creator that happens when technology can synthesize and counterfeit that creator's potency and power and all we're talking about is animation.
Each of us are immeasurably perfect and magnificent and yet have fallen to the temptation of counterfeit pleasures.
Let's have a look at what Massey's brought us about Ghibli and the response of the genie behind this great creative content before talking about the relationship between a creator and their creature and how this might have spiritual and even ontological consequences.
That high-touch thing is hard.
I was like, "I'm going to go to my hand."
Thank you very much.
It's pretty amazing because this is something that's happened in Japanese culture many, many times, like sort of from various instantiations of warriorship and various forms of religion and the intervention of foreign commerce and trade.
Japan, because it's an island nation like the one I'm from, continually wrestles with isolationism and incorporation into separate cultures.
But Japan's probably done a better job of it.
I think it's pretty, and when you say better, I mean if the aim was isolationism, because it's still quite a racially homogenous place, probably religiously pretty homogenous.
Does that make it a better or worse culture?
You tell me in the comments in chat.
Is the melting pot the only way?
Let's see what Miyazaki is saying.
Wow, an insult to life itself.
In case you're listening to this as audio, Miyazaki, when confronted with these AI images, says that it's an insult to creativity and to life itself.
Now, even if you're not a theological or particularly a denominationally religious person, the idea that life is sacred is...
Where does it come from?
You know, have you ever listened to Bob Dylan talking about his creative pomp?
He just goes, I don't know how it happened.
I don't know where it was coming from.
I can't do it anymore.
I used to just sit down and all these things used to just flow out of me.
Because, of course...
True greatness and true genius isn't generated out of an individual.
It's merely received as a kind of transmission.
and that's what I think anyway.
*sad music* I'm going to go to the bottom of the top.
It's a weird atmosphere down in the studio, and it's like school.
People are really chastised.
It's just an experiment.
Matthew, how come this sort of caught your eye, mate?
What is it that impacted you about it?
I think AI is fascinating.
I know Luke's got a story on AI as well, but it's slowly replacing a lot of things that we do.
So you could quickly mock this stuff up.
Maybe this guy at Studio Ghibli won't use it because he philosophically doesn't align with it, but he's quite an old guy.
The next generation is going to come through, and are they not going to just quickly make this stuff?
I think that's the way it's going.
But the thing that was really interesting for me about this is when he was reviewing AI art, which wasn't even his own, it was just some other artwork, he said, whoever created this stuff has no idea what pain is whatsoever.
Like, that's what matters to him about art, the pain in taking two years to create a four-second clip or the pain that goes into it.
So I don't know, what do you think about that as an artist?
Do you need, is it not worth anything when machines make it because there's no pain in it?
It depends on whether you think art is transactional or whether you think it is sacred or not.
Most early art is devotional, whether you're talking about the Renaissance or even cave paintings.
There's an idea that there's reverence and patronage, devotion, demonstration, and the dedication to the muse is a theme that's practiced throughout art.
On that idea of pain and suffering in art, David Lynch, God rest his eternal soul, get ready for the name drop, thought it was a kind of a sort of a romantic French.
I think this is notionally connected to the idea of sacrifice,
which I was reading about in Thomas Merton's Contemplations, where he says that we assume that...
Sacrifice must include suffering because the greatest, certainly from a Christian perspective, obviously, image of sacrifice is the sacrifice of Christ on the cross that we may know eternal life and be redeemed of our sins.
But he says sacrifice is possible without suffering.
Suffering is just almost an inadvertent consequence because if you are devoted to this ulterior realm, which Miyazaki plainly is, he's not talking about the results.
He's not saying the result The goal is this drawing.
It don't matter whether a robot comes up with it or someone toiling and laboring over a desk as an illustrator for decades or whatever.
He's saying, no, the process is what matters.
The process is important because in that process you are engaging with and communing with something higher.
And that's much closer to what Thomas Merton's saying, is that sacrifice leads you to a secondary realm.
If you think of the other famous example of sacrifice in the Old Testament there, Abraham is willing to sacrifice his son.
There is nothing that is more important than the relationship with God.
If God says, kill that, kill it.
Then I suppose we have to start asking what we believe in and whether we believe in anything at all.
And increasingly these days, people don't believe in anything at all.
People believe in commerce, revenue, pleasure, distraction.
And obviously Miyazaki believes in something.
He believes that what he creates is connected to something very important.
And actually when you watch...
He makes you feel it too.
You watch Spirited Away.
Could Spirited Away be made by a robot?
Well, maybe one day.
It's obviously a lot closer than it was.
But he's saying there's a ghost in the machine.
There's a phantom.
There's a holy spirit.
There's something else that you cannot emulate or synthesize.
And in a way, I suppose, you can look at that in purely rational terms.
Because if you reach the point where you can entirely replicate and synthesize counterfeits of all human life, then you don't need human beings.
And you can see that's the point that we're encroaching upon and approaching now.
It's like, well, fuck them.
What are they good for?
Get rid of them, execute them, line them up, put them in concentration camps.
That's sort of the idea that's in someone like Yuval Noah Harari.
I was wrong earlier.
It's Malcolm Gladwell that wrote that essay about, you know, David and Goliath and a rational explanation for why that may have gone down the way it did, even though it's obviously as well as historic mythical.
So but my point is that you cannot dispatch with...
Actually, you can.
And if you do, what you get is sort of this dreadfully industrial kind of fascism.
That's my take on it.
So I agree with Miyazaki there.
His studio does seem a bit like a school.
And knowing what I know about Japanese fetish, their workplace and the school should be kept very, very separate.
Luke, what are you saying about AI, mate?
You've got an AI story as well, have you?
Yeah, I do.
And I mean, you know, I see this from two sides.
I see why Miyazaki is bearing this burden of pain when something like this happens.
He's put in so much work and effort into something like this for such a long time.
And I think part of, like, maybe what he's getting at is that God created us in his image, and he's a creator.
Therefore, we are creative people innately because he made us that way.
And so to see something...
...be created where I can click a couple buttons and boom, Miyazaki's work is just made right there.
I could see why that would be a burden.
But on the other side of it, the tech side of me, the techie bit in me gets excited because there is somebody who had the dream to create some kind of computer where amazing art could be generated on the fly.
And so that's creativity on its own from that perspective.
So it's difficult.
I think it's cool, but then I also think that there is a heartbreaking aspect to it, which is what I think Miyazaki is portraying here.
Yeah, for sure.
And also when you take it back in the other direction, even like a Neolithic human being doing a cave painting on a wall is using tools and is being, you know, like someone then could have said, hey, don't do that.
Just use your imagination and paint it with your elbow.
You know, like, you know, sort of like when you start drawing lines.
It's always going to be arbitrary, i.e.
the arbiter will be human, unless you agree that there is a God and there are absolute universal divinely inspired principles to which we are all beholden, whether we believe in them or not.
And because we all sort of feel something, we all feel a bit sad, I think, for Miyazaki when we watch that.
For me, that's an indication.
At least...
That there is something true in what he's saying and something true about us.
Let's see what Luke has brought us.
We've got a lot more to get through, actually, today.
Please, if you don't have Rumble Premium yet, get Rumble Premium now.
Let's have a look at this AI.
According to Luke, who works here, it's getting crazy.
Let's check it out.
Get it, Grandma.
Do those ab crunches!
Yeah, it's gone.
That's out of control now, isn't it?
That's it.
We've officially gone too far.
I didn't like the screwed up face one bit.
I did not like Gollum and Zuckerberg.
And I did not like the Kafka-esque metamorphosis of a granny on an ab machine.
That whole thing, that's really, really wigged me out.
Poor old Miyazaki.
Don't show Miyazaki that.
I mean, that would be like the famous crying native American being dragged through like an oil slick, wouldn't it?
Like, you can't do that to Miyazaki.
You know, sorry that one of your studio members has been cheating on his own work.
Check out old scrunch-up face and Zuckerberg fucking Gollum.
It's going to blow his mind.
Yeah, I literally, I saw that.
It's, you know, I'm sitting in bed or laying in bed at 3am and then I see the scrunchie face thing and it's like, dude, where is AI going?
I mean, you could have a get him to the Greek 2 five years from now.
You could just type it in, generate this and boom, you could have that created.
I mean, I feel like that's where it's going, which is terrifying to some degree.
For sure.
My concerns is that they'll use that technology to create video footage of events that didn't happen in the past, rather than create movies in the future.
It would save me a lot.
I mean, I would have let them do AI for getting to the Greek one, actually.
I've never been one of them actors that's like, I don't, you know, like, I do all of my own stunts.
I'm like, I don't do any of my stunts.
I don't even want to come here at all.
I'll stay at home.
Let the golem gimp do it.
Save me some bleeding time.
Nice one, guys.
That's really, that's some lovely stuff and lots to contemplate.
Let me know in the comments and chat what you think the lines are when it comes to the utility of tools.
Are we in a sort of space, a 2001 Kubrickian moment where we're just picking up that bone, picking up that phone, where we are learning to utilize and manipulate the material world around us?
Or are we creating realms of consciousness that will ultimately become inaccessible to us and become the kind of Luciferian realms that actually are the inspiration for the sequence that we saw from House of David in one of the items we were discussing earlier
today?
So just before we move on to the next story, which is Isaac, who is, you know, whether you care about it or not, a Jew talking about trans sports.
We're just going to have a look at how the WHO are struggling since the United States under Trump has pulled their funding.
Is that a good thing?
Is it a bad thing?
Is it a Miyazaki moment or is it merely the way that.
Two weeks ago, President Donald Trump signed an executive order announcing his intention to withdraw the United States from WHO.
The order refers to WHO's...
I think that anyone that's behind, like, Trump pulling his funding from the WHO is going to watch this video and go, you bastard.
Look at them, they're trying their hardest over the WHO.
Didn't you like their treaty where they tried to get 5% of your health budget, where they wanted the ability to impose mandatory vaccines, where they wanted the right to censor?
The WHO lost quite a lot of credibility during a health crisis, which they, frankly, made worse.
And to some degree, profited from.
And if you listen to a man, I'm blanking on the name of my friend there, who, like, you know, the WHO, let me know in the comments and chat if you know who I'm talking about.
There's, like, the funding of them is pretty dark, man.
It's like whenever you look into the origins of, like, Facebook or anything.
There was a CIA carve-out.
Like, WHO's got all sorts of weird edicts and stuff.
To WHO's alleged mishandling of the COVID-19 pandemic and other global health crisis.
Last week marked five years since I declared a public health emergency of international concern.
From the moment we picked up the first signals of viral pneumonia in Wuhan, we asked for more information, activated our emergency incident management system, alerted the world, convened global experts, and published comprehensive guidance for countries on how to protect their populations and health systems.
All before the first death from this new disease was reported in China on the 11th of January 2020.
Even before the US announcement, WHO is facing a shortfall due to the economic difficulties.
I'm sick and tired of WHO.
I'm glad that they're losing a bit of their funding.
I don't trust them.
They blagged us the whole way through that pandemic.
I'm glad they're getting shut down.
If they had the ability to censor this right now, you know they would censor it.
If they had the ability to tax you, they would tax you.
They're doing it by default, doing it by the back door.
We're better off without them.
That's just what I think, though.
Let me know what you think in the comments and chat.
Wherever you're watching us, I hope that you're watching us on Rumble right now.

Now, whatever we might think or believe, is it as anything compared to what Sam Harris believes in?
Now, this is a kind of culturally divisive moment when it comes to billionaires.
Some people loathing Zuckerberg.
You saw that dude snogging Gollum.
You'll have your doubts about him after seeing that.
Or maybe you love Elon Musk.
Or over here at Rumble, Peter Thiel, an earlier investor.
Billionaires, are they all good?
Are they all bad?
Or does, like Solzhenitsyn said, the line between a good billionaire and a bad billionaire run not through nations, religions or creeds, but through every billionaire's heart.
I don't know.
Let's have a look at Sam Harris talking about Elon Musk.
And we'll decide for ourselves what the difference is between a good billionaire and a bad billionaire.
Before we get into that, though, let's raid the quartering.
Thanks, Timcast.
Thanks, Mug Club, for the raid on us.
And why did we return that favor by raiding the quartering?
Let's have a look at this.
No, here's the fucking news.
Sam Harris along with Jordan Peterson and Joe Rogan were once known as the four horsemen of the new internet age dark web apocalypse.
There is only three of them.
We're missing a horseman.
But what has Sam Harris become now?
Sam Harris said that Joe Rogan is to blame for many of the world's ails and for misinformation itself as a concept.
