Armed Robots, Public Fury and a Culture Losing Control — SF699
Russell Brand confronts societal decay, linking armed RoboDogs targeting marginalized groups to Project 2030's predicted UK instability. He critiques lockdown terminology and HS Tiki Toki's mental health struggles while exploring DMT anomalies and atrazine-induced frog gender shifts. The episode pivots to addiction recovery, emphasizing 12-step mutual aid over isolation, EMDR therapies, and Christ's suffering as an anti-myth against René Girard's theories. Finally, it highlights Joby Weeks' FBI house arrest for exposing BitClub Network scams, framing these crises as symptoms of a culture losing control without silver bullets.

Psychedelic Realms and Risks00:09:51
Russell Brand, trying to bring real journalism to the American people.
Hello there, you awakening wonders.
Thanks for joining me today for Stay Free with Russell Brand.
We're going to be talking about, well, let's be honest, trying to survive in this crazy world.
Get involved in that chat.
Have a big argument.
For example, are Jews good or bad?
There's definitely a one word answer to that question.
What about Muslims?
Good or bad?
What about gays?
Good or bad?
Solve it!
Solve it now in the chat.
A woman's place, in the home.
Solve it!
Solve it now in the chat, you lunatics.
If you ain't got Rumble Premium yet, get Rumble Premium now.
Do you know this, though, for example, that the DMT realm, I bet Massey knows the full word for DMA triptylic of it, don't you?
Do you?
Dimethyltryptamine.
Good, see?
Right, say it a couple more times so I can learn it, please.
Dimethyl.
Dimethyl tryptamine.
Dimethyl tryptamine.
How do you know that?
I knew he would know.
I knew he'd know.
He's interested in it.
I haven't taken it yet, but my mate's got it and he said it's the best trip ever, so I'd like to do it.
I will do it.
Drugs are bad.
Drugs are bad.
That's all we've got to say on that.
Dimethyl tryptamine.
You should see how long it took me to learn how to say hydroxychloroquine.
Yes!
That's the first time I've ever done it.
It took a lot of mnemonic devices.
Ah, Dave, good old Dave, real life land man from West Texas.
How's it going?
You okay over there?
Have you ever seen that show?
I ain't watched it yet.
Oh, that's good.
Billy Bob Thornton looks too thin.
Like Billy Bob Thornton, he always looks like he should play someone with AIDS.
Yeah?
Has he?
No, I think his fullest was Tombstone.
Was it?
You ever look at Tombstone and you go, that's Billy Bob Thornton?
Because it doesn't even.
You don't even think that's Billy Bob Thornton.
Well, I like him in.
Bad Santa, that's a good movie.
Did you let your kids watch that?
I've made a lot of mistakes, a lot of mistakes.
We've because sometimes I can't watch the crap they watch, you know, like I can't watch that crap, so I have to make them watch good stuff.
You don't think Sling Blade was like the thing, yeah?
What is Sling Blade?
I don't know about that.
He's good on that.
I don't understand his reference, so I just that's that's Sling Blade.
What do you think he has?
Autism.
I don't want to talk about something I don't know about.
Don't hijack the show to talk about Sling Blade.
I'll simply blaze in in English.
I'll blaze right in.
Encourage me.
Encourage me about talking about things I know about.
Not Sling Blade.
You want to pull it up?
No, I'm not interested in it.
DMT.
DMT.
Dimethyltryptamine.
Dimethyltryptamine is.
People are getting banned from its realm.
That's the headline that we're working with, kids.
And what I'm assuming this means is why I like.
Dimethyltryptamine, even though I actually am not allowed to take drugs because, you know, I spoiled it for everyone else.
I do believe that taking psychedelic journeys is an interesting thing.
Like, the reason is because Ezekiel, Daniel, Book of Revelation, like, do you know that bit when they're measuring stuff out?
That's weird, isn't it?
The measuring stuff out.
Isn't that like someone's.
I know sometimes it's literally measuring out a temple, and, you know, I'm down with it being Christ, of course.
Dressed in white.
Sounds like the resurrected Christ sometimes, don't it?
That figure.
But it sounds like he's pitching out reality.
And the other day when I was reading in Isaiah, I stretched out the skies.
I really thought, wow, man, that's good.
That's good universes expanding stuff.
Like, you know, if you're looking at the way that they're measuring the age and size of the universe is by looking at molecules and particles and their rate of the movement as they expand across, not expand across space, move across space.
But, oh, I find in the poetry increasingly in scripture.
The language of the deepest reality.
That's what I'm trying to say.
Even when it comes to things like dark energy and dark matter and cosmic physics, as understood by a humble lay person such as myself.
And also, I'm interested in prophecy and altered states.
So that's why I'm interested to hear people are getting banned from dimethyltryptamine world.
And, Massey, if you're any kind of an editor, you'll put dimethyltryptamine up on the screen every time I say it.
And that'll be very satisfying.
For me, I don't know if I.
I don't.
Well, when I was a younger man, I used to watch shows back, you know, like when I was on Big Brother's Big Mouth.
That was the first time I used to be on TV or MTV when I was on MTV when I was a kid.
I like watch it.
Well, this is so cool.
Look at me on the TV.
I've gotten in there, man.
I've gotten in that box that I was spent the first half of my life, as it was then, staring at.
Now I'm in that.
I did it.
I got in.
Where is this box?
Now I'm another box.
You don't want to be in these boxes, is the truth.
Get out of them.
The boxes are not good things.
Anyway, what I'm interested in now is dimethyltryptamine.
People getting banned from that realm like it's a psychedelic nightclub, like it's a sort of a realm.
I want to see about this, and now I will with a simple push of a button.
Did you know that you can get banned from DMT?
Really?
Dude, you got to look this up.
There are thousands of people out there who are using DMT recreationally, and the beings up there basically told them, you are done.
And you're, you're banned from, from DMT.
And the journey stops right there in that moment.
And the guy can take hit after hit after hit after hit of DMT and nothing happens.
You can be banned from that realm or whatever it is.
I think they call it hyperspace now.
In the culture surrounding DMT, there is a widely reported anecdote phenomenon called being locked out of hyperspace.
Many frequent users report reaching a point where the drug simply stops working as expected, regardless of the dose.
That happened with all drugs if you take them enough.
You've just got to not be weak.
Keep pushing through.
Some of you might overdose, some of you might die.
That's a sign of weakness.
Keep pushing on.
What I like about that.
Is that kind of, I suppose, comparable to 100 monkey theory, where once a certain number of monkeys in an isolated part of an archipelago learn some skill like cracking open a coconut, automatically and immediately the other monkeys on that island suddenly can also use this new monkey technology, suggesting that there's a kind of psychedelic mycelium network, or as the Celts used to call it, weird.
Indeed, that's the etymology of the word weird, spelled for Y in that instance, you know, instead of the I, not instead of the W. Be crazy.
The weird was an interconnected network, like a mycelium network, via which information could travel.
I and the father are one.
I and the father are one.
If you've seen me, you've already seen the father.
There is an interconnectivity to the absolute that can be achieved, and like through psychedelic states, you might achieve it.
But also, the occupants of this realm are they've got some conditions about entry.
And I think they're probably what do you think they are?
Demons?
Fallen creatures, yeah, it's probably spiritual for sure.
I think the first half of that interview is way more intriguing than what he read at the end.
When it's just like most users find it wears off at the end, I like the idea of getting locked out more than I do the drug wears off.
What do you think?
Getting locked out, yeah, like it started so good, then it's just like some users report the drug doesn't act the same way it did after multiple years.
Yeah, you gotta get a handle on that.
That doesn't seem so metaphysical, does it?
But I think it is a spiritual, it's gotta be right, spiritual.
What are you saying?
It's just the drug stuff.
It's so funny that you're like, I like the beginning bit when it's about other realms being religious, but then I don't like it when it comes down to science and it's just the drugs wearing off.
That means there's no other realms.
And this is all it is.
True, it isn't as good a story if it's just how these drugs are wearing off.
But yeah, until I've done DMT, I've got no idea.
But people do say it's like going to another place.
I feel it all the time.
I can do it to my own head with just breath.
I can do it to my, it's not, you know, I'd like some beings.
Who don't want beings?
But really, don't you feel like in consciousness, sorry, in the sort of subjective experience, which you might call consciousness, the information comes in via the senses.
The eyes can detect a certain light range, et cetera, with all of the senses, even the sense of touch.
But it's really stupid, mad stupid, to suggest, That the instruments for sensing is equal to the information that can be sensed, even just relying on rude, not rudimentary, because it's sort of kind of complex, but let's say mainstream scientific perspective like dark energy and dark matter, which ain't dark, it's just outside of the detectable range.
So, especially when you couple it with stuff like our understanding of quantum entanglement, i.e., you reverse the polarity of one electron and the distance don't matter, the other electron's polarity will alter, suggesting a connection there.
And these kind of Not apocryphal, but sort of peripheral scientific ideas like hundred monkey theories suggest that there are indeed realms.
And the way that we depict them, sometimes it seems stupid or it seems deliberately sectarian, like if you start saying demons and angels.
But again, like when we did that etymological exercise on the Lord's Prayer, what we kind of discovered is that behind whether you come up with it using 1950s language or 1560s language or 2026 language, It's going to have a load of baggage from that.
Quantum Entanglement and Frogs00:06:53
But what's behind it, it seems to me at least, is a sort of a reality that does, it is precisely about realms.
Even though what I've drawn on this bit of paper looks like something that Quentin Blake would have done during a really bad mental breakdown.
Quentin Blake, longtime collaborator of Roald Dahl.
Anyway, I do like that stuff.
Now, are we going straight into gay frogs as usual?
I mean, like the next, the very next thing is proof they're turning frogs gay.
But I know they're turning frogs.
That's a natural transition.
Let's do it.
Let's naturally transition into a gay frog.
You said the chemicals in the water, which are put there by the government, are turning frogs gay in a gay bomb.
Look at Alex Jones.
He's absolute certainty in himself.
I do love that guy.
Yeah, I did say that, and they are.
Bomb.
There are more than a thousand university studies from England to Australia to South Africa to Mexico to Austin, Texas.
That atrazine is literally making male frogs gay.
They don't want to have sex with female frogs, and their populations are plummeting and even becoming extinct.
Boom!
The one that's sort of remarkable is this parent.
These are both males.
The one on the bottom, acting as the female, we affectionately refer to as Darnell.
He's a genetic male that not only acts like a female, he lays eggs like a female.
He, she, has been exposed to atrazine.
What's going on there with this scientist?
He's been exposed to atrophy.
I've had some atrazine this morning, and that's when I put this earring on.
When I came to work this morning, I was a pretty tough guy, but I've been drinking atrazine, and I gotta say, I love this stuff.
And look, this chandelier on my lobe.
All of her, his, her life.
I don't even really know how to reference it.
This is Darnell's third clutch.
So Darnell has sons and daughters that we've grown up.
You can see eggs in the bottom.
I think Darnell's partner looks particularly pleased with the event, so I think they're disassociating.
At best.
This is actually her second clutch for today.
He, she has been copulating for getting close to 24 hours now.
This is probably one of the.
Frog pronouns is a different level.
Because he's scared to say he, so he's he, she, right?
Yeah, the frog can't be offended.
Yeah, he's like, oh, I don't want to.
I identify as Kermit.
Yeah.
This is probably one of the most remarkable things I've seen in my work.
Yeah, there it is, the gay bomb.
That's one of the most remarkable things I've seen in my work.
There it is.
Look it up for yourself.
I mean, this is what they're.
What do you think tap water is?
It's a gay bomb, baby.
Wow.
Whoa.
So that explains the changes I'm seeing in you.
That's very fancy.
I said it before you could say it to me.
I said it first because I knew you were going to say that.
100%.
But I wasn't going to because I actually have been having some deep conversations with a gay Christian.
And I'm actually an extremely sensitive person.
So sensitive, in fact, that I'm going to have sex with a boy frog.
It's the only way to get these feelings out through my urethra.
Go on, what are you saying there, Massey?
That the frogs don't look like they're enjoying it.
It's just like that guy's talking about how remarkable this thing is.
And you've got these two frogs who've been put in a box.
And this guy's like screwing with them with some chemical.
It's just a horrible existence.
And this guy's like, This is incredible.
But the frog's like, God, I'm so bored.
I'm fucking guys and laying eggs in here.
Ridiculous.
What are you doing, scientists, when you're not doing gain of function research in Wuhan?
You're doing gain of function research with frogs.
Stop it.
Get a grip.
Cure cancer!
Stop turning frogs gay and bats dangerous, you nutters.
And that's my five cents.
I'm going to do new items like that.
Like I'm just like Bill O'Reilly.
Just shout a bunch of shit, and that's the show.
Yeah, let's try it, see if it works.
That's that one.
Now, Noel Gallagher, British musician, superstar of Oasis, says that he will not go into lockdown again.
Well, that's not how lockdowns work.
You have to.
Let's have a look.
I'm not going into lockdown again, by the way.
If anybody's listening to the government, I'm not bothered what you say.
I'm not going in, and that's the end of it.
I will.
Lockdown.
Someone pointed out that even the language, they didn't use quarantine, they used lockdown.
That was our guest, Tina Piers.
You should watch that episode, actually.
Tina Piers is a doctor who did great research and experientially treated a bunch of patients during COVID.
Then they shut her down and made up a load of lies about her and stuff.
But she was a real good doctor.
She said, Lockdown?
They don't even use that language.
That's prison language.
You're going on lockdown.
They shouldn't have done that.
They weren't allowed it.
No, Gallagher's right.
That's the end of it.
I will buy a nightclub in the West End.
And I will open it 24 hours a day, even if there's only me in there playing my own tune.
Gallagher's Bar.
That'd be so good.
Don't know what I'm going to call it.
It's going to be great.
I'm not going back into lockdown.
No one wants another lockdown.
No way, baby.
All right, let's have a look at.
Oh, yeah, that presidential library.
I see that on the internet.
I see Eric Trump announcing it.
It's a tall library.
It's tall.
You ain't seen it?
Check it.
Watch that forever, just like a sort of sky needle and a sort of a hinge.
Obama went for a hinge and Trump went for a syringe.
What's the part on the left of the video?
Is that where it's at now?
No, that's Obama's one.
Oh, sorry, did I introduce it correctly?
Barack Obama's library look, it's all made out of stone, whereas Donald Trump's one's all tall.
Why did you think that was?
You thought that was in a primitive stage?
Yeah, maybe like where.
No, they finished it, I think.
Or maybe they've designed it.
I don't know, actually.
I don't know where we are in the construction.
I don't know, darling.
I just don't know.
But have another look at it.
It's very rousing.
The argument can't be who's got the better type of presidential library.
We've got a lot to concern ourselves with.
Not least, H.S. Tiki Toki, who was one of the subjects of the Manosphere Louis Theroux documentary, is getting antagonized.
Because someone's doing quite a good impression of him.
And there's a good comedic spirit actually behind this.
Because a good impersonation of someone, they'll find a hook and then you'll go, yeah, I like that.
And a very good impersonation of someone is where it goes stupid.
And this guy with HS Tiki Toki, it's not even a very literal impersonation.
He's almost a caricature.
But beyond caricature, even, it's slightly macabre and surreal.
Let's check it out.
The RoboDog Impersonator00:14:10
Boys, I've got something that I need to speak about, and that's my mental health.
Since the Louis Theroux documentary, I've not been the best.
That's why I've not done any IRL streaming.
I've totally gone offline.
I've acted brave and I've acted like I could face the demons head on and the hate.
But I'm coming on here right now to say, nah, I've cracked.
I'm now seeing a therapist.
I'm quitting streaming.
And I don't want to be involved with this toxic online world that just hates on me.
This is a joke, though, huh?
I know that this is a joke.
Can't you feel it?
Just hates on me and brings me down.
I'm just a young guy, man.
I'm 24 years old.
The constant hate, the constant abuse online just makes me feel.
It is exhausting.
Maybe he's not joking.
Yeah, that's him.
No, no, that's not the impersonator.
I thought this was going to be the impersonator, but only because I've been exchanging that stuff with Joe.
But Joe's not here, is he?
Because Joe's off on one of his missions.
Joe's on a mission of some description.
The comments were, I had a few comments asking, where's Joe?
Yeah, where is Joe?
Joe, you lunatic!
We'll work it out.
Online just makes me feel this big, genuinely, to the point where I don't even want to be online anymore.
So when you're saying horrible things online, how about you think to yourself, yeah, about how that can affect other people and how they.
Funny that he's arrived at that point, huh?
Yeah, that's what it is, darling.
And remember some of the stuff you've said.
Hey, yeah, we were all on that little carousel with HS Tiki Toki.
Look, RoboDog is armed now.
Let's have a look at RoboDog.
Then we're going to see Keir Starmer.
Prime Minister of my country, up, getting surrounded and attacked.
Firstly, though, let's have a look at RoboDog.
They told us they were never going to do that to RoboDog, didn't they?
They said RoboDog's only ever going to dispatch medicine, it's going to be a reliable friend, it's going to help the elderly, like Neuralink.
It's just going to help people.
Neuralink's just for paralyzed people.
Also, we are going to hook all of your heads to a massive grid and punish you with electric shocks if you disobey our system.
RoboDog.
Armed to the titting teeth, running around like an arachnid predator.
It's good because a RoboDog has no fear.
RoboDog rounds that corner.
All of that military training, Dave, I bet you've done some of that training, have you?
Where you have to go around a corner in a certain way.
A little bit.
Yeah.
Well, I want to do it.
That's one of my favourite things when you see them go around a corner when you enter a building, you know, and they do it well.
Yeah.
Well, how are you meant to do it?
We'll take you out to the range and do it.
They have a kill house out there.
Kill house?
Yeah.
So now we're talking.
Now we're talking content, HS Tiki Toki.
We're down in the old kill house.
We're going around the corner, and I've got to keep my back to a certain place.
Let's do it.
Let's go there.
We'll strap cameras on ourselves.
We'll go around there.
We'll fire off a few rounds with hollow shells and hollow tipped shells.
Get some robot dogs.
Now, Robo Dog's a different thing, isn't it?
Because did you see Robo Dog essentially doesn't care if you get shot?
The Iranian army.
I bet they've got robo dogs up the kibosh.
I didn't like the fact that it looked like there was just a gun on top of them.
They give it a head.
Yeah, they make it like a nice built in, like you plug it in or something.
That just looked like, here's a regular gun, and we just taped it.
You think it looked too slapdash like when I repaired that bench in that house?
Like, here's an AR or whatever, and then just tape around robo dogs.
You don't think you want to see it a bit more like on a.
Yeah, it's like a garlic.
It's on a turret or something, and it's like.
Turret.
Let's have a look, Jake.
I think you're right.
Gone pretty mad, huh?
Go back, let's see.
It's got that kind of muzzle.
It's upside down.
Yeah, it is, but I suppose that doesn't matter to RoboDog.
There is no upside down.
He just taped it on him.
He doesn't have a choice.
Upside down's a concept.
RoboDog don't deal with that, does he?
He's not like, wait a minute, that's not how I learned this at school, because he didn't go to school.
This isn't how you do it in the National Rifle Association.
Because he weren't in the National Rifle Association.
What kind of video?
For him, that's just a hat.
That's just a deadly hat.
He's just putting on his deadly dog hat.
His gun hat.
Gonna go take out some terrorists or gays or whatever.
He doesn't get a concept of upside down.
Upside down is irrelevant to him.
He's not thinking about gravity, sky, floor.
All he's is human concept.
That's an animalistic concept.
He's not really a dog.
Focus on the robo, not the dog.
Focus on the robo.
Robo's not thinking about air, water.
Oh, look at that lovely brook.
Look at that daffodil.
My God, life is fleeting.
RoboDog don't think like that.
That's not RoboDog's job.
RoboDog's job is around the corner, kill the enemies of the state based on data.
The enemy of the state this week is LGBTQ2.
This week it's Muslims.
This week it's Christians.
RoboDog don't care about that.
Upside down Christian, Muslim, Jew.
Bam!
With his upside down death hat.
That's all he cares about.
Gay bomb.
Bam!
Gay bomb.
Turn you gay if you're not gay.
We don't care.
RoboDog's not interested.
I don't like that his head is an open wound.
That's what I don't like.
It's like when you take G.I. Joe or Action Man's head off and just leave it there like that.
He's out of the game now for me when I was a boy.
Once the Action Man doesn't have a head, or G.I. Joe in your language, he's no longer a participant.
It's not like he can go around using his neck hole and strap an AR to him with tape.
No way.
You're out of the military, son.
Your war is over.
Your war's over.
Go home, write poetry.
I think, speaking of writing poetry, If that fella that made that dog video in the UK, what's he going to do about it?
Why are you bringing him up?
That's a whole other episode.
We've got to reference him.
Massy's got to go pull the archive, run that for five seconds here.
We're talking about this guy.
You think they're going to.
What about RoboDogs?
What are they going to make a video about RoboDogs?
God, he's not going to take RoboDogs.
Are there allergies?
Imagine if you've got an allergy against real dogs.
Oh, well, that's presumably based on what people tend to call dander.
Yeah?
Dander.
Well, RoboDog don't got no dander.
He don't got no dander and he ain't got no concept of upside down, left, right.
Black, white, he don't care about your coffee shop or your allergies.
He's going to come around the corner with his upside down deaf hat and fuck you up.
Here he comes.
Actually, what about those of us that are shut ins and are scared of upside down deaf hat dog?
Yeah, that's actually all of us now because we're all shut ins because they've imposed a lockdown and none of us can go out of the house because if you do, upside down deaf hat dog comes and rounds you the fuck up.
And whatever you do, and if you're in Britain, you can't even shoot back at it.
What are you going to do?
Kick it?
Kick it in its open wound neck hole?
Stick your foot down its neck?
All we know, they can program it to like that.
They can program it, that's fisting for it.
Or a new word we've not even thought up, legging, like a new thing.
A new thing.
That robo dog, he ain't on your plane of reality.
Good luck with that allergy.
Are we too friendly to deaf dogs?
Are we really too friendly to robo deaf dogs?
Am I too friendly?
You are too friendly.
Yeah.
Whitlock.
Whitlock!
Turn the car!
Hold on, I've got to find it.
Turn the car?
I've got to find it.
Does anyone know how bad it is?
I'm going to guess.
22.
That's kids in Marks and Spencer's, actually, though.
I'm actually quite interested in them.
24.
24.
Turn the car around.
Oh, sorry, we tried.
Can someone come and do this for me?
It's fucking Whitlock.
What's he done now?
He's robbing Marks and Sparks, look.
Can you imagine how frightening that would be?
Like, I tell you, there's nothing more scary than them, like, 14 year old kids and that.
One time, like, I was seeing some kids beating each other up in a park, and I intervened.
I've not told you this yet, but I have said this before.
These kids were, a group of kids were beating up a little kid in Greys, where I'm from.
I was about, I don't know, 20 or something.
I was, we are, like, they were going, let's make him eat dirt.
And I goes, yo, no one's making anyone eat dirt.
These kids turned on me.
It was so frightening.
They were like, you fucking what?
And I was like, Oh shit, I'm out of my depth.
Carry on, eat the dirt.
These kids were so scary.
Is that what you did?
You gave up on it?
I gave up.
They were too scary.
They were too scary.
They turned on me and I realised, no, you've got no chance.
These kids will kill you.
They were frightening.
It was Lord of the Flies.
It was Children of the Corn.
It was too much for me.
I didn't have the authority.
Maybe if I was Eddie Gallagher.
Maybe if I'd had a gun.
Maybe if I'd had a RoboDog.
But not with these kids.
And check this out.
The one area where you might think I would best them was with witty epithets or maxims.
Well, that didn't happen either.
One of them goes, Yeah, that's it.
Fuck off.
You can't play the hero if you don't know the lines.
And by the way, I was at that point trying to be an actor.
So I was eviscerated by this child.
There's some kids that you see that are living on Gatorade and heroin or meth probably these days.
Amazing abs.
Beautiful kids.
They should be right.
Let them run Marxist.
Here they are.
It was like this atmosphere.
What are them coppers gonna do?
They look so vulnerable, don't they?
They look like they belong in the frog box, those coppers.
They still have like the whistles.
I'm just thinking.
Yeah, like, that's enough of that.
Hey!
What was that in?
What was that for?
Stop or I'll whistle again.
I will whistle so hard.
I will whistle down your spy hole.
It was like, what was that for?
What, the whistles?
No, the people doing that in the store.
They're doing that just for, I think, anarchic amusement and looks like they're in the ice cream section.
So, presumably, ice cream and kicks.
I suppose, Jake.
What has happened?
There's stuff.
My god, I mean that's terrifying madness and what's the upside for them?
Well they're gonna get some frozen nuggets, they're in the frozen food section.
Imagine what they're gonna do when they realise they're gonna be conscripted to fight a war against like Russia and Iran any minute now.
They're gonna be peeved but they might do well when they're over there if they can organise and learn how to operate a robo-dog.
Noise, man.
That school noise.
Do you remember that from school?
That noise.
Kids all out of control.
It was mad.
Yeah.
I don't have to go there.
Whenever there was a fight, it was like that.
Mad crow sounds.
I'm really glad I'm an adult and I don't have to go to school.
I hated it.
If I had my time, I wouldn't go.
I should have.
I'd have put.
The only amendment I'd have made is I'd have bought the drug program earlier.
Like, start younger.
You know those kids that start drugs?
You were young, weren't you, Dave?
Started at 12 or something.
Yep.
Yeah.
We had fucking heroin.
The drugs, Dere.
There, did what?
There, no, you didn't have it.
I've seen it, but we didn't have it.
It's like a drug program, yeah.
It's like a they're bringing up the dare dog and all that.
What was it, yeah?
Grange Hill, Zamo overdosing on heroin.
Every British kid my age knows that.
Like, Grange Hill was a TV show, you don't really have an equivalent.
Degrassi Junior High, maybe.
Do you remember Degrassi Junior High?
Well, Grange Hill was like that.
And Zamo, who was this lovely character, died in the toilets of the old heroin, and the whole generation.
Went heroin, eh?
Well, let's try that shit.
Like, you know, the message really misfired.
They invited them, Nancy Reagan did, to the White House, like with the Just Say No campaign to team it up in the global war against drugs.
They bought our ones over there.
So, all these kids from Grange Hill, oh my goodness, so funny now because now all those kids from Grange Hill do media where they were all doing drugs in the toilet at the White House.
They were just like kid actors, like 15 year old actors.
So, they were doing coke and smoking weed in the White House toilets while they were visiting the White House, anti drug.
Global at Nancy Reagan just say no campaign because they did a song called Just Say No.
In fact, Massey, you can build something brilliant here.
Here are the assets one, just say no, and here is just say no.
And two, here is an interview of them actors saying that they did drugs in the toilets.
And three, here is like news footage of all them kids being at the White House.
That's very, very funny.
I'm having a hard time, uh, when my kids are like, I don't want to go to school, I'm having a hard time being like, no, you need to.
No, come on.
How are you going to get indoctrinated into being a passive consumer?
I'm like, I'm sorry, man.
I don't want to tell you, this sucks.
My kids don't have to go.
They're waking up too early.
You got to go to bed.
They're all just like, oh.
I feel like, oh, a guy at one of the Maha things to my face said, What time do your kids wake up?
And I was like, I got to get them out of bed by six.
And he said, Child abuse.
Yeah.
And I was like, and that's the guy that said, All right, see you on the other side.
Jumped out of the window.
You're like Alex Harland.
Homework was the worst thing.
They've got you for eight or seven hours or whatever a day, and then they're like, now go home and do this at home.
Like, fuck off.
You can't get me prepared for the world in like six hours.
I've got to then not play with toys and do your shitty work at home.
Chaos Against Paedophiles00:07:38
It's no good, man.
It's no good.
But luckily, the angry mobs are fighting back.
Keir Starmer is the least popular British Prime Minister there's ever been.
Here he is being.
Surrounded by an angry mob.
I've not watched this yet.
I'm pretty excited about it because I, again, see, I care, I enjoy it.
I enjoy seeing this when really what I should feel is limitless compassion for Keir Starmer, a child of God.
But what I am feeling is instead, I'm going to enjoy seeing people shouting stuff at him.
Here it is.
Look at that Lammy, that's the Home Secretary.
He looks terrified.
He's on him.
It's like, oh no, everyone hates us.
This is what it is.
This is what your dreams have come to.
And that Lammy.
He was like an activist politician for a while.
He came forward when a guy died in police custody and it was all a bit suspicious.
I feel like Lammy handled that gear pretty well.
That's like 20 years ago now.
But look at them all.
Unpopular.
Surrounded by the mob.
Child abuser.
That's the stuff, man.
That is not a popular leader.
When a country reaches that kind of pitch, when you can see that level of anarchy in a store that we saw before, where the kids are going wild in the aisles just for ice cream, then you see a Prime Minister taking a scheduled Instagram walk to some vehicle, presumably for their own ridiculous PR purposes.
You see that the temperature of the UK is rising and changing, and it's going to become more and more difficult to manage that.
Now, of course, the challenge is, how does that energy not get funneled into some neutered cul-de-sac around?
I don't know, probably pretty much any political movement that winds up in Westminster, our equivalent of Congress, just a Gothic building, just a facade full of interesting geometric information, if you're interested in how frequencies operate, but an institution nevertheless designed to keep a chokehold on the British people, the British people that seem, on the basis of that footage, To be getting angry, but that's just what I think.
Let me know what you think in the comments and the chat.
Does the UK seem to be on the rise?
What's the geezer with Captain Canada doing there?
It's gotten to that copper as well because that copper's charged with protect them and they're feeling that heat.
Human beings come to the forefront, the uniform melts away as the endocrinal kick starts to surge and rise.
You can't run countries like this no more.
We are entering.
End times?
It doesn't.
It's not a prediction.
Really that's particularly novel, really just a diagnosis.
That's obvious.
The world can't carry on going like this for much longer.
We're probably.
You know, project 2030 was always on the agenda.
I loved it when our man Uh guest on the show you should check out the video.
Um, our man, Mickey Willis, said that probably Covid precipitated a kind of speeding up.
They weren't quite ready.
But the agenda 2030, look it up.
It's a real thing that over the next few years, I reckon in particular, There will be successive events, most likely.
It looks like wars now, doesn't it?
And energy shortages that will be used to legitimize control.
Because you can see there that if that kind of unruly mob energy was fused and processed through reliable systems of direct democracy, there's an exhaustion with institutional politics.
Nigel Farage would be in exactly that position in two years.
That's what's happening.
The gap is concertinaing shut.
Like, even if you're a pre-ardent Trump fan, and I remain.
Enamored of his persona, say, like I like the way he deals with things, he's a I like him as a personality, but you it's very difficult to remain enthusiastic through the sort of trudge of like war and oh god, this isn't it, is it?
This is not the America first that we were all so up for.
Now, in Britain, there ain't even a sort of a charismatic figure like that to carry that kind of freight.
It's going to be getting intense, intense.
Yes, the UK is in serious trouble.
Have a look.
Where's Jimmy Savile?
Because when he was at the CPS, Keir Starmer, that means he ran the Crown Prosecution Service, that's our equivalent of the Attorney General, he protected, some say, high-profile paedophiles like Jimmy Savile, who was known to be a fixer, and he had a TV show called Jimmy.
Fix it, which led to the brilliant Incomparable, in fact Uh, Frankie Boyle joke.
Other paedophiles must be very jealous of Jimmy, Of Jimmy, of Jimmy Savile.
What hang on, what go, what?
You guys got some puppies in a van and a bag of sweets.
I've got my own tv show where I fulfill children's wishes amazing, amazing joke.
So Jimmy Savile was like always getting obed and member to MBE.
These are sort of accolades that the British establishment can issue.
He had a knighthood and all that kind of stuff.
He was always doing charity marathons and Louis Thurou did a show about him.
But There's some sense and suspicion that he was protected by the BBC and other British institutions that manage power.
What I think we're seeing now, and even in this brief cortege video of Keir Starmer being slammed and abused by an angry passing mob, is the collapsing of the amount of time afforded to leaders.
They're having to shuffle so fast.
Rishi Sunak, Keir Starmer, in a minute it'll be Nigel Farage under a new rebooted Tory party, but it won't get much grace and largesse.
If it is unable to make the kind of changes that the people are literally now demanding.
And as you can hear just from the slogans they're shouting, they're not like, we want tax breaks, are they?
Or we don't want these unpopular wars.
No, this is, we are disgusted by you.
We think you are the worst thing that it's possible to be.
Paedophiles, sex criminals, that's how they regard their leaders.
When there's that level of contempt, revolutionary change is inevitable.
It's coming, it's coming fast.
And the only way that the system, the institutions of existing e.g. you know, so-called democratic power will be able to manage it is legitimizing restriction and that's what you're going to see.
That's what I predict.
But that's just what I think.
Let me know what you think in the comments and the chat.
Does that one short video tell you more than a dozen treaties on social decline?
I'd say it does.

Have you got an addiction issue?
Yes, you have.
Time for crack on.
All right.
This podcast is not allied with nor endorsed by any particular 12 step fellowship.
Although we may reference their literature, we do not represent these organizations.
The primary purpose of this podcast.
It is to provide additional support to men and women who walk the path of recovery.
We share our personal experiences of the 12 steps in the hope that others can benefit.
Take what is useful, disregard what isn't.
Apologies in advance for any offense, cause, any other problems, take them to your God and your sponsor.
A fine falsetto from Jake Smith there, and a wonderful disclaimer from Dave.
Welcome to Crack On.
Today we'll be talking about working with others.
Anyone that's in recovery from addiction using 12 step techniques, if that's what you want to call them, has to work with others.
This is from the Alcoholics Anonymous literature, known colloquially as the Big Book and literally as Alcoholics Anonymous, that the fellowship takes its name.
From the book.
This is from chapter seven.
Practical experience shows that nothing will so much ensure immunity from drinking as intensive work with other alcoholics.
It works when other activities fail.
This is our 12th suggestion.
Carry this message to other alcoholics, you can help when no one else can.
You can secure their confidence when others fail.
Remember they're very ill.
Okay, that's all we're going to give you on youtube.

Life will take on new meaning.
To watch people recover, to see them help others, to watch loneliness vanish, to see a fellowship grow up about you, to have a host of friends.
This is an experience you must not miss.
We know you will not want to miss it.
Frequent contact with newcomers and with each other is the bright spot of our lives.
The thing that mostly affected me, Dave, is intensive work with others.
Work works when other activities fail.
I suppose that's like because it gives you a sense of purpose.
Well, I mean, you've said it a lot.
The way the devil enters is through self, right?
The way the world gets you is through self.
And nothing that I've ever done besides working with others, intensely working with them, doing fifth steps with them, sponsoring them, going on 12 step calls gets me out of that.
I mean, it metaphysically just removes my head thinking about me and trying to meet my own needs.
Do you then sometimes force yourself?
To go and help someone else, even though you really don't feel like it, just because it will help almost always.
It's rarely that I'm like, Oh man, I really want to interrupt my day and go talk to this addict or someone that's struggling.
I mean, I think of a good experience that you had once that you shared with me.
Um, I mean, you've worked with guys for like me for 20 something years, and so, um, I think of you and You and Laura both were trying to help a couple, and the husband would go off and it would be bad.
And he was, I think he was suicidal.
And you would have to go up to the school, and he was causing a scene.
And you were always trying to go up there and help them and help them.
It's like it's, you know, some of those really hard cases are some of the best as far as like getting out of self.
But it's not always just sitting around coffee talking to someone.
A lot of times you enter into their chaos.
Well, it's like Christianity, huh?
Like there's sometimes the image of Christianity as being, well, lukewarm, you know, to sort of quote Revelation, like a version of it, which is quite sort of conversational.
And the same with AA, or excuse me, 12 steps.
There can be 12 steps that are very.
Like, you know, that's why I suppose I like some of the narcotic oriented ones because if you're at Narcotics Anonymous, even though in general I think that, gosh, not to get too niche, that AA is a superior program because the literature is so amazing and there's, generally speaking, a weight of folks that have been committed and stay committed.
The thing is, when you go to a narcotics oriented place or program or fellowship or group, you're dealing with people that are criminals by default by virtue of the fact that they're taking illegal drugs.
So there's that.
And you get like this intensity, people tend to be younger, like, drugs messes you up earlier than alcohol in general.
But there are like totally exceptions because I meet often alcoholics that are screw ups, like, that have really messed their life up.
But there's something about like that intensity of the world of, you know, drug addicts.
And I suppose what I'm talking about really is, but what we're talking about here in particular is the ability of the 12th step, which is helping others and carrying the message.
To get you out of self.
See, in the last few days, I've been in self real bad.
And it's only this morning that I recognize that when I'm in it, it's not like my personal circumstances are causing me fear and shame.
The potential for fear and shame is latent within me, waiting for the stimulant to go, it goes active, right?
Eckhart Tolle would call it the shame body.
Christians would say your identity is not in Christ, that when you've not got your identity in Christ, but your identity is in worldliness.
And alcoholics would call it the disease.
The disease, you know, um, do you sort of when you're occupied by that, when you feel that sort of parasitic poltergeist like personal occupation, like the opposite of having being a temple for the Holy Spirit, actually feeling like, oh my god, kind of possessed?
You feel can you some do you sometimes find it odd, Dave, to go, all right, I better call someone else and check how they are?
Because I almost always, right, almost always, I don't, I default to self, it's the default.
I mean, when I wake up, I'm defaulting.
To self.
And so I have to actively work to get out of it.
I mean, 86 to 88 in the mornings has helped me a lot lately.
And it's only been the last three weeks, three or maybe four weeks that I've been consistently 86 to 88 as soon as I can.
And I just, hey, on awakening, think about 24 hours ahead, consider my plans for the day, ask God to direct my thinking, you know, and just starting to try and get centered early, early on in the day.
But I still think throughout the years, out of all the steps, throughout, Throughout the years, I would not be, I don't see how I could be sober today if it wasn't for the 12 steps because there's been, it's sometimes probably years worth of not being spiritual, living and, but I always worked with other alcoholics.
It's the thing that saves the day.
Like it all other matters, all, there's another part of the book says all other measures fell, work with another alcoholic will save the day.
I actually find it, like you, find it difficult, but perhaps unlike you, sometimes I actually just won't do it.
I'm like, I'm too insular.
I can't talk to people anymore.
That's one of the things that happens in my disease I cut off.
I don't want to talk to no one.
I don't want to be around people.
Because really, that is, yeah, I'm in what I would just call sort of the vicinity of suicide.
Really, what I'm edging towards is I don't want to be alive anymore.
And the thing is, is that I've never really lost that.
You know, that's always been there.
And when it comes, when it returns, it feels so authentic and real and leaden and weighty and material.
It doesn't feel like, oh, this is just that thing that happens where you go a bit suicidal.
No, it feels like, well, here you are, you've arrived.
Now, like, it's only actually that suicide requires, at least it seems to me, for me personally, would require like an urgent burst of power to do it.
Like, you know, I'd have to have the rush and the whoosh of, like, right, that's it, I'm going to get high.
And then I'm using that, you know what I mean?
Like, But that's, you know, sometimes that's what's stopping me.
Not faith.
Not faith.
Yeah.
But I bet you, even in there, what got you out of it a lot of times was ended up helping someone else and thinking of their problems.
Like, even though you may stay in that for a little while, which I do too.
Like, I'm not going to go help that guy.
I don't really care.
I'm going to stay in my stuff.
I'm going to sit in it.
But eventually, I'll think of someone else and I'll work towards helping someone else.
You get a lot of, you get a lot of, because you, I mean, you just go anywhere and people will recognize you and come up to you, and you'll spend a lot of time getting out of stuff just talking with people and praying with a lot of people.
You pray with a lot of random people.
That's the kind of you to say thank you.
You know, but I think it may just look different for you because you're trying to help people spiritually, but.
It gets bombarded with you.
And so there'll be times that you need a break.
Sometimes I need triage.
And like what happened over the last few days has been like I needed, firstly, I did something called tapping solutions.
It's like a body thing, a bit like EDMR, where you tap.
And I'm fortunate to be friends with Nick Ortner, who started it.
And the thing is with that is it is actually disrupting your body.
It's like a therapeutic session, if you can imagine, where you would directly say, This is what's bothering me.
You know, I'm terrified by these legal challenges.
Um, okay, well, where do you feel it in your body?
Here in the stomach, okay.
And well, then, like, you have a conversation if you're fortunate enough to know, you know, the person that can practice it.
Elsewise, I guess you'd be doing it on an app.
Indeed, the tapping solution is the app that I would use, it's very good, and I really recommend it.
Um, that's almost like gestalt, gestalt type therapy.
Yeah, is that bodily then?
Yeah, gestalt would be like, where do you feel it?
What and then you'd give it a voice, and what is it saying?
Right, I feel it right here.
Talk therapy, though, Dave.
Like, this is like, I think it's very important that you are doing this.
I think it's interventionist, right?
In the same way as maybe, I don't know, acupuncture could be or some sort of light therapy.
You know, those things, have you ever done that?
EDMR, where you watch a thing like a pen or a light, and then they get you.
Have you ever heard of that, Jake?
Like, it's, I think that stuff, that, that, I do get a sense of thawing in the actual physical, right?
And then, like, this guy, Jamie Winship, who wrote that book, Living Fearless, like, he's really helped me with this identity idea that, like, when you're in shame and pain, You've gone back into your worldly identity.
Like, you've lost your connection with who you really are.
Like, the idea that you are beloved and anointed and appointed and exactly how He created you, they just become kind of concepts to me.
And I think the same thing is true, maybe, of the idea of helping another person.
It's an action.
You've got to go, all right, then I'm going to go and help this person and listen to them.
And it does, it really does.
I mean, the reason, like, I love Joe so much, actually, is because, very, in the, when I was, like, the sort of white noise explosion of, Being falsely accused of sexual crimes.
Like, Joe was on holiday in Brazil and, like, he was just ringing me up, just talking about his own shit all the time.
He goes, Oh, yeah, see that thing?
Were you in the news?
Listen, this has happened to me.
And it's all he would talk about.
But the funny thing is, Joe's is interesting.
His psychosis is interesting.
You know, like, his disease is interesting.
Like, when he's describing that plate of ice cream or how he feels when he's confronted, like, I get good identification from him.
And, like, it was just a.
During the time I was talking to him, I was I guess I was in the back of a car going to see my kid who was having heart surgery with security guys, knowing that I was all over the news, but I'm listening to a joke and then this fucking cunt I'm like, yeah, no, man, that ain't good, right?
Well, listen.
And it was like a great balm for me.
You know, like it was like, ugh.
Yeah.
Because you, on some level, you like, think about all the time you're encountering people that are going through something.
You think, well, I don't want to change places with that person.
I don't want to change places with people that are in Gaza.
I don't want to change places with people that are grieving a dead child.
I don't want to change places.
There's all these things that you know.
But somehow it's just a concept, doesn't it?
It doesn't get you in your guts and your belly.
Whereas I suppose helping another person, you are different.
You are identifying with a different person, part of yourself at least.
I think, you know, I don't know who said the quote, but.
You can't be selfish and selfless at the same time.
It's not possible to be that.
So, even when you're helping somebody out, it is, you can maybe do it for selfish motives, but for the most part, if you really focus on what they're doing, you're not in self anymore because it's not possible to be if you're really on their thing for a little while.
Identifying With Suffering Others00:12:51
Sainly people have completely, one of the things one might notice about, I guess in Vedas, they'd call it Bhakti, the yoga of love.
Like, say someone like Mother Teresa of Calcutta, as far as I can tell, she just All the time is helping someone.
She's not doing any other activities.
She's just like, right, get up, wash this thing, raise this money, do, you know, she ain't ever going, and now I might watch Down and Abbey and have a wank.
You know, it's not going to be that for Mother Teresa.
And like, I met this other lady, Amma, and they said one of her followers, Amma, who has this sort of ashram of thousands of people and she's doing a bunch, you know, she's an incredible human being actually.
Like, but when, like, she's, one of her followers says she has no personal life.
She doesn't have a personal life.
She doesn't go off and, like, all right, I'm me now.
And, like, think of our Lord.
It's like, even in that minute when John the Baptist gets beheaded and he's grief stricken and goes off to pray, he's like, he's followed by people, but it says something like he's felt compassion for them and just cracked on and helped them, like, because that's what was required of him.
And I suppose for me, sometimes, I guess, when I'm, I don't know what language to use anymore, but depressed or not in the spirit, when I feel like I've lost my connection, like, I like getting up, like I feel like, and I've been around someone recently, huh?
That's like, once someone's disconnected from the source, you're like, well, you, your job now.
I mean, I can see why people medicalize it because it does look like a medical matter.
Like when someone's just like switched off, like they've not got no, you know, is because doesn't it always seem like you're just saying, well, just cheer up, cheer up, like you know?
And I remember when I'm so excited, that is not gonna help me, man.
Like, it does feel like I need fucking biochemical disruption right now.
I want a chemical disruption.
To go in my body and sort of blast it all out.
But indeed, the point being contested, to reference back to our, hold on, dimethyltryptamine conversation earlier, is.
What that chemical is plainly, not plainly, but one could argue is doing, is it's disrupting, loosening the restriction that the senses place on the psyche.
And in that state, one gains a sensitivity to frequency and information that's previously inaccessible.
But it is there, like those beings are there.
It's not like, whoa, man, I'm seeing pink elephants.
No, it's like, fuck me.
The mask has come off, the veil has lifted, and I can see a different level of reality.
So, what I am.
Believe the epiphany, like you know, take a great scriptural example.
Saul is on his way to Damascus to pursue what he regarded as his life mission the persecution and execution of Christians.
Then something happens to him, and after that, he's a different person for the rest of his life.
He has you know, three days of blindness, three years of training, and then it's one thing after another jail, shipwrecks, floggings, beat ins.
But now the eye is singular, and like I guess that's where I feel we're.
What we're circling now is how much more time do you need to dedicate to being instructed that you belong to Christ?
Go and live a Christian life, not some little Christian life ensconced in suburbia or wherever.
Get out there, soldier.
There's your marching orders.
Like Paul, I can only imagine, didn't spend too much time.
Oh, I'm going to do this for a while now.
You know, tent making.
Even in that step, as The identity of you are this too, so therefore help this person.
I mean, that's the way that it should always be built in.
Even using Paul as the example, he would go, I was this, this, and this.
And he was never like, You know, he was if they kept doing the wrong thing over and over again, he'd put them back to the truth.
But I think that's a key deal.
And Dave will probably talk to it a lot, but like the church's problem sometimes is they forget where they were.
Like you become a Christian and then all of a sudden you're.
Forget to walk through life with people who are also going through issues, or you want God to do, you forget that God's infinitely creative.
And if He was able to get you, He can get any people that are struggling with anything.
It doesn't have to fit the same form that you think it should fit.
I sometimes, when dealing with a drug addict or a person that I'm trying to help, I feel like personally, like I've got to come up with something.
Right, this, this.
You know, like I'm like searching for ideas and stuff to say that's going to be what I've heard someone else say, like the silver bullet that's going to go, oh, and you sort of hit them.
But actually, you can't do that.
No.
You can't, I mean, you can't truly change them spiritually.
But do you think that's wrong that you search for things and like, I see that as working with the gifts that God gave you.
I mean, I guess it could be off if you think, Dave, I think, like, because I think I'm trying to do the results.
Because see, like, our man over here, Jake, always says, he's like, when the anointing is on you, when it's on me, Like, I I know it and I feel it.
And in my interactions with people, peace is being generated and harmony and love is being, the fruits are occurring.
Then sometimes I'm trying out of self, you know, on self reliance, as it would say in the 12 step program, like trying to sort of pull from me a kind of solution.
And it's actually not in me, you know, like that's what I guess that peace that passes all understanding might look like under pressure is well, God, we're going through this, are we?
I'm here, man.
I'm here in faith.
I'm going to live by faith, not by sight.
Your grace is sufficient for me.
I'm just going to go through this till you tell me.
When you tell me to move, I'll move.
Yeah.
That's beautiful, man.
Because you can no longer fake it.
And I think because it's going, you're going to instantly feel like I'm doing this on my own or I'm faking it and you can see the result of it.
Or maybe in the past, you could have gone a long, long period of time of being in self.
Maybe years.
I mean, I think that's actually what addiction can do.
Is I think it can suspend unconscious states.
Like, if you are, as I was, to be personal, like, if you're having sex three or four times a day in ways that are pretty interesting, either with strangers or multiple partners, you're sort of like, you're defibrillating yourself out of the necessary arrival at the kind of despair that delivers truth to you, showed them the truth.
Like, yeah.
Or if you're on drugs, obviously then you're in it with chemicals.
Oh, no, no, no, no, you don't.
I'm going to keep it there, you know?
Yeah.
It's doing you a kind of service because, you know, to your point earlier, I guess what that sort of suggests to me is that part of the mission will be to go and be among those very people.
But that is in the proclamation.
Go among the broken and the weak and the addicted and people that have done sex work and they're deeply ashamed.
And obviously in my case, it's going to be a lot of broken women and be around them with absolute love, absolute love.
And go, right, you want me here, God.
What shall I do?
And for me, the challenge is to sort of decouple it from, Obviously, I'm going to be required to be doing some glamorous shit up the front.
You know, like, yeah, that's the line.
Well, the spark light reignite thing we talk about all the time.
You're not responsible for any part of that process.
Yeah.
You're, you, like, we'll just go into situations and have conversation with people as we feel led to.
And whatever the result of it is, that's up to God.
If it does spark, you can't go, I'm going to spark this person.
No.
I'm going to reignite this person.
Or even coming in with the silver bullet.
You know, maybe you do have a couple interactions where you have that one line that it happens, you know, where it makes it hard, yeah, and it does happen.
And then that's the whole uh, Paul and Apollos, he waters, I plant, God, you know, that that in scripture, yeah, you shouldn't be into Apollos or Paul.
God's the one who does it.
We just do the thing you go in there with love freely, be as selfless as you possibly can, caring for other people, and leave the results up to God.
I just got then like suicide prevention.
My own and others.
Like, that's part of what I'm in.
I'm in suicide prevention.
Like, that's it.
It's not a higher, you know, we're going to conform decentralized communities of direct digital democracies.
We're going to liberate people from Babylon.
It's suicide.
Like, are you suicidal?
Yeah, me too.
Okay, let's try not to commit suicide then.
And then maybe God will handle the next.
Let Him do the rest.
Just don't kill yourself.
You have to purposely be on mission though, and you have to say yes to those things that come up.
Send me.
And put yourself in positions where you can help other alcoholics or addicts.
Well, yeah, that's true.
I think of the way, I mean, I won't say anything about it, but I mean, our families took a vacation specifically because me and you were going to meet someone.
And so, I mean, we specifically went there with our families and lined our vacation up so that me and you could go 12 step.
Yeah.
You know, and, and the, I don't worry about the results.
I can't, you know, don't have any expectations on the results.
Hope, have hope for the results.
But, but we went there and, Really try like, and it made the vacation for me just going on a vacation.
Okay, cool.
But, but it, it brings, it really brings like, it just brings that purpose to it that my life is a deeper purpose.
This mission of helping other alcoholics, helping people with my back, back experiences.
I think you, you have, you have other experiences too that you help people with constantly.
If they're suicidal, if they're struggling with.
I think you help a lot of people just be honest.
A lot of people just need to hear someone just be that honest.
Thank you, Vizinho.
Because I do that on purpose.
Like, say if I'm bored in a 12 step scenario, my main technique is raw honesty.
Raw honesty.
And I try and do that in this work also.
Yeah.
And that's why.
But the beginning of what's happening legally and criminally with the British various systems and institutions in the UK was, I felt like, how can this be happening?
I'm like, and one of my lawyers finally answers that.
He goes, he's almost frighteningly honest.
Yeah, yeah.
You're like a lawyer's worst nightmare because they're like, don't say that.
Don't say that.
People would know.
People would know because, like, I'm in a 12 step program.
I've been in a 12 step program for 23 years.
There's people that I've had to say, But, like, if there's something that bothers me, I have to tell somebody.
I have to go, hey, listen, this fucking really mad, bad thing happened and I really need help.
And blah, blah, you know, and you could subpoena a whole bunch of people that would go, yeah, I don't know, unless he's been lying to me for 23 years.
This ain't true.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Thanks.
That's helpful.
All right.
Well, like, okay.
So the medicine is to help others, the wounded healer is the image.
And if you take Christ outside of time, it's he that is wounded infinitely and into annihilation that provides maximal.
Healing.
They're not inside time.
God is not inside time.
The triune God is not inside time.
It's happening continually, like it says in that Ethiopian gospel.
Whatever happens to him when he descends into hell and ascends and the temple curtain tears open, it's beyond literalism, it's beyond history, it's beyond mythology.
Indeed, Rene Girard, who I've been reading some of, says that it's the anti myth that proves all other myths not true because all other myths, i.e., the buried God, the cannibalized God, the virgin birth, all of those concoctions and ideas that have been traveling through time, suggesting some sort of universal consciousness, by the way, on the way, or some omnipresence at least, somehow capitulate into the innocent God who dies for our sins.
Thank you, Jesus.
Bitcoin Mining and Currency Growth00:05:08
All right, well, that's the end of this talking now, and we've got to go because, well, one, Josiah's got baseball.
Two, I've got, that Josiah's Jake's son.
I've got.
To do some adverts.
Hope you enjoyed it.
Get Rumble Premium if you don't have it now.
Remember, the Reborn products are excellent.
Rawr!
That's how virile I am.
Rawr!
Yeah?
We got Joby Weeks coming up.
Hey, Joby Weeks is coming on the show.
Joby Weeks is a freedom fighter and hero.
He was on board early with the bitcoins and cryptocurrencies, recognizing that bitcoin mining was going to make him and a lot of people rich.
He's got great ideology.
Here's a clip from the brilliant film by our friend Mickey Willis called Free Joby.
Check it out.
Now the new currency is growing in popularity.
It's even been called the future.
Bitcoin, this mysterious digital currency.
We're asking whether or not this currency really has any longevity, let alone legitimacy.
I'm not an expert in cryptocurrency, but I have my doubts about it.
When Bitcoin was coming out, nobody really knew what a Bitcoin was, but we already had a mint minting gold and silver coins, and so we thought, well, let's make a Bitcoin coin.
So we designed the logo and we put on the backside this private key so you could actually load a physical coin with crypto.
And somebody said to me, well, Bitcoin is a golden egg or you can buy the goose that lays golden eggs.
And at the time, somebody had told me about this club called BitClub Network is one of the fastest growing business models worldwide.
Six months goes by, and I get a phone call, and they're like, the government raided the data center, and they took everything.
And I'm like, what?
So Joby will be on the show on Monday.
Monday.
It'll be good, him.
I like him a lot.
He's a really friendly guy, and I've sort of stayed in touch with him.
He's been on a house arrest for like I don't know, six or 11 years.
He's not done anything wrong.
They're having to sort of like maneuver laws to go, well, it's a Ponzi scheme.
All he did was much too quickly work out that mining Bitcoin was going to make a lot of money.
He had the fastest growing tech company or was a participant in one of the fastest growing tech companies, like literally Facebook, Amazon levels of growth.
And then the FBI came and nicked all of his equipment and put him on house arrest.
And he's on house arrest literally right now.
I hope he's watching this because you can support Joby and he's coming.
He's got trial soon.
They're messing with him in all sorts of crazy ways.
And I think, really, my opinion.
Two cents, or two, what is it called when it's a little bit of a Bitcoin?
Two bib squeaks, two millipops, two satoshis.
Satoshis, my two, thank you.
My two satoshis worth.
Oh, I'm really pleased with this.
My two satoshis worth is that what it was was they realized that the only way they were going to be able to control digital currencies was by managing, they wouldn't be able to stop them, but they could slow them down long enough to get their ducks in a row, which they've now done.
And well, actually, central currencies are good as long as we're in charge of them, which is basically what they're saying.
So, Tune in to watch the interview with Javi Weeks, particularly if you're a person who's interested in not only cryptocurrencies, I know they don't like that phrase, but also parallel and adjacent political systems.
