Speaker Time Text
adam crigler
We're going live?
unidentified
Yep.
Alright, I'm ready.
you you
you oh gotta love it
Thank you, thank you chat.
adam crigler
I've been, I saw you guys all saying no audio, so thank you for that.
that. Appreciate you guys.
lydia smith
We're good now, are we?
tim pool
Welcome to the trial and error program.
My name is Tim Poole.
The audio is probably too low and there's nothing we can do about it because we've been upgrading the set.
So, uh, we said a whole lot of nothing.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Nothing was said.
Nothing is done.
adam crigler
Nothing happened so far.
tim pool
Just ignore it.
Wow, the chat is on fire.
adam crigler
Look at all these people.
Oh, it's back.
Alright, everyone can hear us now.
tim pool
But the audio does seem to be low right now and there's nothing I can do.
So, we've basically been troubleshooting a mixer to get the music setup working and there are problems with it.
adam crigler
Yeah, yeah.
Well, they can hear us now.
lydia smith
That's good.
adam crigler
What were we talking about?
What were we not talking about?
unidentified
Right.
adam crigler
But hey, hello everybody.
Thanks for showing up.
tim pool
So long as you can hear us.
Because it definitely sounds like something's wrong.
You start talking, Adam, and I'm going to check you out.
adam crigler
Hey guys, how you doing?
Well, thanks for showing up.
Today we're going to be talking about a bunch of random stuff or nothing.
I don't know.
Seriously, it's all the same.
Everyone keeps sending me all these ideas.
Oh wow, so whatever you just did, I heard it get a little louder there.
tim pool
That's right.
That's increasing the volume.
adam crigler
So maybe you guys can hear me now.
I hope you can hear me.
And yeah, it sounds good.
tim pool
They can hear, right?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Give me noise.
Go soy Jesus.
adam crigler
Yeah, right on.
unidentified
So, so as I was saying, what were you saying?
tim pool
Project Veritas exposed this huge thing.
I mean, this is big.
unidentified
What does it say?
tim pool
The audio streams current bit rate is lower than the recommended bit rate.
You know what?
This is YouTube's and this is not us.
adam crigler
Oh, good.
tim pool
Yeah, that was good.
adam crigler
We can blame.
We can blame others.
blame our overlords.
It's not us.
It's them.
tim pool
Yes.
This happened before.
We used to get warnings where it was like... Too high, right?
It was complaining about something that had nothing to do with... And I'm like, we're on auto, man.
It was like, your settings are too high.
I'm like, well, we can go in and just do manual settings.
And so we did that and it kind of fixed the problem.
So it's not necessarily YouTube's fault.
But anyway, let's talk about news and stuff, huh?
adam crigler
Let's talk about the lack of news.
tim pool
How y'all doing?
adam crigler
Oh wait, or news?
Is there news or is it the lack of news?
lydia smith
We got James O'Keefe news.
tim pool
It looks like there's a trick where if we have the audio not working, everyone super chats us to give us money to let us know it's not working.
adam crigler
Oh, that's like a trick to make money.
We trapped y'all.
We trapped you.
tim pool
We actually just had some live piano music going.
And that's why I had the audio set up and then we had to, you know... Now you're teasing him, Tim.
adam crigler
So, Project Veritas, man.
Yeah, tell me about this.
What's going on?
tim pool
Well, so this is the big first story we'll get into.
Project Veritas got an insider and got some undercover interviews exposing a hospital or CBS, one of the two, staging a testing.
adam crigler
And... Finally.
tim pool
They're both kind of blaming each other.
adam crigler
It feels like this has been happening for a while now.
People are staging all sorts of different things across the spectrum of the news.
People are staging stuff together.
tim pool
I know that right now there's some, there's some like, you know, dude at YouTube who's all like greased up and sweaty.
Just a finger over the band button on my channel.
He's like, say it.
Say a conspiracy theory.
adam crigler
I'll press the button.
tim pool
So I'm like, here you go, buddy.
We're doing it.
lydia smith
We're doing it.
tim pool
Hospital and CBS staged a coronavirus event.
We don't know who did it.
We don't know which one, but one of them did.
Project Pear Tots exposed it.
This is all over the news.
We got local news outlets covering this.
It's huge.
It's all over Google, man.
adam crigler
Well, there you have it.
tim pool
We don't know why they're doing it.
The assumption, I suppose, is that they're trying to get money, I guess.
adam crigler
Yeah, right, because the more COVID patients you have, the more government funding you get.
So they're trying to build it up.
So like, oh man, we're under fire.
We have all these parking lots filled and we need more help.
tim pool
Is that what it is?
Yes.
And I'm going to do something right now for y'all.
So heads up, I am about to crank up the volume.
adam crigler
Hold off the volume.
tim pool
Yeah, because one of the things that just happened is our software gain got reduced because of the mixer.
adam crigler
Oh wow, I can see how low it is compared to normal.
Okay, so bear with us.
It might go, it might blow your eardrums.
tim pool
Three, two, one.
adam crigler
I'm gonna just keep talking right now so you can kind of hear me still.
I don't know, is it the same?
What do you guys think?
Should I use my deep booming voice?
tim pool
Three, two, one.
adam crigler
All right, so how's that sound?
Oh yeah, that looks a lot better.
Testing, testing, one, two, three.
This is my new ASMR voice.
tim pool
We were really frustrated a moment ago.
Just hang out with us while we play.
Hey Lydia, how are you?
lydia smith
I'm great, how are you, Adam?
adam crigler
I'm so good.
tim pool
All of the news, all of the news is all the same.
Everything is the same.
Everything is boring.
lydia smith
We're trying to be calm, Tim.
tim pool
Like all the top stories are like, Donald Trump disagreed with someone.
And I'm like, is this all you got?
adam crigler
Everyone's saying it's much better, the sound.
Good job, Tim.
tim pool
So basically what happened is we have the microphones are different from the mixer.
The mixer's got a direct input, so it's much louder.
So we're playing with trying to get the jam cam to work.
Is the jam cam on?
adam crigler
I think it is.
lydia smith
It is on.
adam crigler
Is it on?
Check it out.
Yeah, the jam cam.
tim pool
Yeah, so there's a lot to be done, but we're getting it set up so that we can play music and stuff.
Anyway, we can talk about what's going on with this James O'Keefe story and Cherry Health, so let's do this.
I did cover this earlier, but we do have an update.
James O'Keefe got an email.
Let's get started.
This is a story from Fox 17 West Michigan.
It is in fact not the Project Veritas story itself.
I will pull that up because they do have updates.
But I'm showing this.
This is a credible story.
Cherry Health CBS News accused of staging coronavirus testing site footage.
Project Veritas report details alleged order for staff to fill out waiting line.
So I recently went to California and there... You did?
I did.
And in this area we were, there was a testing site for coronavirus.
adam crigler
Interesting.
tim pool
Empty.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
Every day.
Nothing.
adam crigler
Seriously?
tim pool
Yeah.
And there were cones blocking it.
adam crigler
So you couldn't even get in if you wanted to?
tim pool
I mean, I guess you could run the cones over.
But this was for like four days.
There was just nothing going on there.
So I don't know.
Hey, man, don't look at me.
I have no idea what they were supposed to be doing or what they wanted to be doing, but they weren't doing anything.
So then when I saw this story, it was interesting because there have been a bunch of videos.
Let me show you this video.
This is just some dude on YouTube, NewsSprocket, I saw.
He claims Hawaii Urgent Care was caught lying about coronavirus testing and he shows photos.
Here's like a clip from the video.
Let me actually jump forward.
They apparently said, you know, they had to turn people away because of how many cars had shown up.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And this dude's like, I'm here.
And there's like nothing going on.
They're lying.
adam crigler
And even the ones that they did show, there was only two cars.
Right.
What?
What you did show, you're only showing two cards?
Like, come on.
tim pool
There's creepy stuff.
This is why they don't like Veritas.
adam crigler
Doesn't make sense.
tim pool
So I can't tell you who did it, right?
Let's read the story, actually.
This is from Fox 17.
They're reporting on it.
They say the allegations from Project Veritas says that at least one employee from Cherry Health was told by a superior to get in their car and join the line of people being tested for COVID-19 at the heart of the city health center.
The center was one of several locations across the country being featured in a report by CBS News.
The piece was published Friday, May 1st.
According to the Project Veritas report, one of Cherry Health's directors ordered personnel to enter the line in their vehicles.
In undercover videos, the staff claims that swab tests were not being done during the segments recording to protect the actual patients that were in line.
The report by CBS News focused on the need for medical gowns and N95 masks.
On May 6th, CBS removed all mention of Cherry Health and added a note to the story highlighting the questions surrounding the video footage.
In a statement to Project Verdas, CBS News President Susan Zirinsky said, CBS News did not stage anything at the Cherry Health facility.
Any suggestion to the contrary is 100% false.
These allegations are alarming.
We reached out to Cherry Health to address them immediately.
They informed us for the first time that one of their chief officers told at least one staffer to get in the testing line along with real patients.
No one from CBS News had any knowledge of this before tonight.
They also said that their actions did not prevent any actual patients from being tested.
We take the accuracy of our reporting very seriously, and we are removing the cherry health portion from the piece.
But wait!
There's more.
adam crigler
Well, I just can't.
I think it's hilarious.
At least one staffer.
tim pool
Check it out.
adam crigler
They said at least one.
tim pool
You know why they're doing that?
adam crigler
It's not saying anything.
tim pool
But you know why they're saying at least one?
adam crigler
Sure.
tim pool
That way they, because, here's the way I see it.
You can verify that they had a staffer in that line.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
And so by admitting to one of them, they can try and downplay, like, it's not that big a deal, just one person.
adam crigler
What's the reason for that one?
tim pool
Exactly.
adam crigler
Even if it was just one, why?
Why are you having one person go get in the line?
tim pool
They're busted.
adam crigler
Exactly.
tim pool
Because they probably had more than that.
adam crigler
Yeah, exactly.
tim pool
According to the undercover report, they had, like, the entire line itself, except for, like, one or two people.
They staged the whole thing.
adam crigler
It feels like it.
tim pool
Well, so maybe, right?
So Fox 17 got a statement.
They say Fox 17 reached out to Cherry Health for a comment.
A spokesperson sent us this statement from Ms. Blackman.
Cherry Health is fortunate to be recognized nationally for our quality as we continue
removing barriers to healthcare to those less fortunate.
I'm sorry, that has nothing to do with anything.
adam crigler
I was just thinking that.
tim pool
Cherry Health's COVID-19 drive-thru testing process requires patients to be pre-screened
through our hotline to determine who should receive a test.
On the day of the CBS interview, 34 pre-screened individuals received tests.
Yeah, on the day of.
To date, we have completed close to 600 COVID-19 tests at our heart of the city health center.
We also share with CBS This Morning that on the day of their interview, our supply of personnel protection equipment was at a two-week supply level.
To my knowledge, CBS This Morning did not stage any part of their visit to our site.
Let me break this down for you.
For those that don't speak journalism-ese, let me tell you how they manipulate.
I'm not kidding, man.
adam crigler
Please enlighten us.
tim pool
Here's what we do.
They say, on the day of the CBS interview, 34 pre-screened individuals received tests.
Okay.
What are standard hospital hours?
24 hours?
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
24 hours?
lydia smith
Yep.
tim pool
So, if we were to break this down over 24 hours, I believe that would actually be unfair.
You know why?
Because the average person who wants to get a test, they're not going to come at midnight, right?
lydia smith
Right, of course.
tim pool
So let's just say, what, like, I don't know, 8 a.m.
lydia smith
to 7 p.m.
tim pool
8 a.m.
to 7 p.m.
So we're looking at, what, around 11 hours, 36, three people per hour.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
But they had a big line.
unidentified
How?
tim pool
Now it's possible.
Look, I'm just doing some math, right?
But maybe they all showed up at the same time for lunch.
Nobody's working, though.
So I'll break this down for you.
What they're doing is a trick to make you think that 34 people were in line.
It's assumptive language, and it's a very common sales pressure technique, PR manipulation technique.
You'll say something where you want the other person to make an assumption, that way you can always feign, you know, like you can deny responsibility.
So I would say this, so it's like, you go, Did you actually have 34 people?
Did you actually have a huge line of people?
34 people were getting tested that day.
What about during the CBS report?
Like I said, 34 people that day had gotten tests.
You're not answering the question.
adam crigler
Yeah, but how many people were in the line at the time?
tim pool
Oh, you know, honestly, I don't deal with the ground stuff.
I can just let you know that we had 34 people.
That's what they did the first time, right?
But we have updates.
We have updates.
adam crigler
Oh, dude.
Update us.
tim pool
CBS News blames Cherry Health Clinic for staging fake COVID-19 test line.
Takes down story from YouTube.
This is amazing.
But it gets crazier.
Because James O'Keefe actually uncovered an email from someone, like, yeah, from between them the night before.
adam crigler
Yeah?
tim pool
So they're lying.
adam crigler
What?
Someone in CBS sent an email?
tim pool
Well, let me pull it up.
He says, uh...
Project Veritas just obtained an email that occurred last night between Cherry Health CEO Tasha Blackman and CBS News reporter Andrena Diaz that conflicts with the on-the-record statements given by both organizations.
Why is it playing this audio?
That's James talking, but we're going to pause it.
adam crigler
Get cut off.
tim pool
I guess it's just, I can't, I can't make it stop playing, whatever.
adam crigler
You keep saying Cherry Health and all I can think of is Cherry Hill from V for Vendetta.
Isn't that where Cherry Hill is?
No, no, no.
tim pool
Cherry Hill is just a city in New Jersey.
adam crigler
Oh, okay.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
What is the city that they released the virus in, in V for Vendetta?
Don't worry, I keep thinking about that though, it's funny.
Go ahead, go ahead.
tim pool
So, this is what the email said, I am learning, so this is from Tasha Blackman, I am learning that some of our staff may have been hanging around near the testing tent and some even may have pulled their cars up to get in the video and or make it look a bit busier.
I am sure many staff were anxious to show you just how busy things can get.
Sometimes, busted.
More than one person.
adam crigler
That's ridiculous.
tim pool
So who's lying?
adam crigler
They just wanted to be in the video.
They're just hanging around.
Oh, I might get in the news.
Hey mom, look, you can see me in the line.
unidentified
Wow.
tim pool
So they issued lies to everyone.
adam crigler
Yup.
tim pool
Busted.
adam crigler
Busted.
tim pool
This is why I think they were saying there was one person at least.
Because they didn't know what was gonna come out.
Look, you know what, man?
This is the problem.
We're hearing all these stories about hospitals faking this stuff.
adam crigler
Yup.
tim pool
And now we have confirmation that... I don't know who... It sounds like from this email, this woman, the CEO, is acknowledging they staged it.
adam crigler
Cherry health.
tim pool
CBS said they claimed they did.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
So if we got this email where she's like, I'm learning that some of our staff may have done this.
And CBS is saying they informed us they did.
First of all, CBS is lying too.
But it seems like, I mean, you know what?
I got to stop right now.
They're both lying.
lydia smith
Why do you think CBS is?
tim pool
CBS said they were told just now that one person was in line.
Yet in an email last night, CBS, the reporter, was told more than one staff.
That our staff may have been hanging around, may have gotten to make things look busy.
So CBS straight up lied.
adam crigler
Yeah.
Seems like it.
unidentified
Damn.
lydia smith
Wasn't there something else they lied about?
tim pool
CBS?
CBS also used footage of Italy.
adam crigler
Oh, that was them who did that?
lydia smith
That was them.
tim pool
Yup.
So it makes you wonder when you see videos like this, right?
This is just like a small YouTube channel.
This is a video that's going around as well.
It's got 2,000 views, claiming that Hawaii did the same thing.
Now, there's also a QAnon hashtag in there, and that immediately destroys all of the credibility of the people making these claims.
And I don't think they realize that, but for those of you that are listening, if you find or uncover something, and you put anything related to QAnon or pizza or anything, you will immediately make sure the story is completely destroyed, killed instantly.
This is why I tell people, conspiracy theories are not your friend.
Even if you think you have proof and evidence, the moment you try and claim it, everyone will just drop you in the trash.
Immediately.
They won't want to associate with it.
They won't listen to you.
You're gone.
adam crigler
What if it's true, though?
tim pool
That's too bad.
He discredited himself.
lydia smith
You gotta take a different angle.
tim pool
Yeah, so this is why, you know, one of the things I think about a lot of these conspiracy theories is that they're purposeful pit traps.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
So, I don't want to get into the specifics of some of them, but I've done a fair amount of research on some of them.
And, again, avoiding certain specifics for certain reasons.
There's one where I know for a fact people made things up, and I know what was made up and why.
And then I see people every day on Twitter, you know, being like, I know this is true, I know this is true.
One of the pit traps that you'll end up seeing too is like the CDC reducing the number.
adam crigler
Yeah, yeah.
tim pool
Totally fake.
Never happened.
And so these things immediately, so let's say you actually have footage of this Hawaii place staging something.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
And then, because you're convinced that your tribe is correct and you're right, you throw in a hashtag like QAnon.
You've immediately just proven to any regular person, like I'm not talking about journalists who are gonna lie, I'm talking about regular people are gonna see that and go, not interested.
Gone.
Your evidence is worthless to me.
adam crigler
I feel like most people don't have any idea what QAnon means.
tim pool
They're gonna look it up, and they're gonna see nothing but smears.
It's a pit trap.
It's a trick to get you to discredit anything you might actually find.
There are a bunch of conspiracy theories where this happens, and I'm like, you may have uncovered government malfeasance, but they set these traps so that when you come out and say it, they can easily point you and go, oh, they're a crazy person, and then everyone says, you're right.
So it's kind of like, you know Bob Lazar?
The UFO guy?
One of the things that people have said, and Joe talked about this on his show, they may have given him all this false information so that if he ever went out to the press, no one would believe him.
Not only that, no one would know what the government really had.
So let's say the government was developing real anti-grav tech or something.
You bring a guy in, you show him the real tech, but then you also show him 50 fake techs.
Then when he goes out and blows the whistle or whatever, he tells everyone all this crazy nonsense, and then people are like, that's ridiculous.
unidentified
What?
tim pool
That's not real.
And no one will know which one actually was.
So that's why you gotta avoid this stuff.
If you go out and you find something, you gotta avoid the conspiracy stuff.
And, you know, even if you take offense at the idea of the word conspiracy, I mean literal conspiracies, like if you find a hospital staging an event, just put up the video.
Don't try and claim it has anything to do with anything else.
Because you're falling for these pit traps, man.
But yeah, dude.
adam crigler
Good point.
tim pool
This is it.
I mean, Veritas has basically at least uncovered one of them.
Why would they do it?
That's my question.
adam crigler
Yeah, exactly what I was thinking.
Like, why?
What is the reasoning?
tim pool
Well, think about what they said, right?
She says, we also shared with CBS this morning that on the day of their interview, our supply of PPE was at a two-week supply level.
adam crigler
Right, so it could only last for two more weeks.
tim pool
CBS said they were in need.
adam crigler
Well, I would think they're neat if they're at two weeks.
Like, that doesn't feel like a lot.
tim pool
Then what are they saying here?
Like, why is she saying they're at a two-week level?
adam crigler
Yeah, why would they even disclose that information?
tim pool
Who's lying?
Both of them are lying, to be honest.
But why do it?
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
CBS?
adam crigler
Because they needed more funding, probably.
They probably needed that amount of PPE gear.
They're like, oh man, we need more.
We're running out.
We gotta, like, make it seem like we need more.
tim pool
Why would they need PPE gear if there's no one getting tested?
adam crigler
That's also a good point.
If they're not even using it.
tim pool
If they're staging the size of the line, what do they need the gear for?
adam crigler
Well, then it makes me think that it has nothing to do with the gear.
lydia smith
Am I?
unidentified
Yeah.
lydia smith
So I think probably the reason that they want more gear is because it's not just about gear.
It's about getting federal funding for their hospital.
It's about getting Medicare and Medicaid.
adam crigler
I mean, let's take it a step further.
If it's not that, maybe it's someone who's actually telling them, we need to make it seem that it's worse than it is.
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
Yep.
adam crigler
You know what I mean?
That's what I really think it is because if they're not even using the gear, they don't need the gear.
So what's the reasoning to make people seem or think that this is still going on?
It's still really bad.
We still need to have everything locked down when everyone's like, no, we're done with this.
tim pool
I just realized something.
adam crigler
What?
tim pool
You know the saying from George Carlin?
Think about how stupid the average person is.
You don't realize half of them are stupider than that?
I just realized.
Think about how boring life is.
Now realize half of all the news stories you've read have been sensationalized.
The world is substantially more boring than you think it is.
adam crigler
That's so true.
tim pool
Like, there's nothing going on at these places.
Nothing is happening.
What if we are in a simulation, but, like, the kid turned on The Sims and just, like, went to college and his computer is just on auto-mode.
Suspend.
Suspend for, like, the next several hundred thousand.
adam crigler
The screensaver's on.
lydia smith
Yeah, seriously, this all makes sense.
adam crigler
The screensaver is COVID.
tim pool
We are a game of The Sims.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Operating on some kid's computer, and he went off to college, and it's sitting in his room, and his parents just leave it on suspend.
adam crigler
Or someone started playing Plague Inc.
at the same time, and then it, like, the computer just slices them together.
tim pool
We're running in the background on some dude's old computer.
adam crigler
Getting splash damage from Plague Inc.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Just slowly going.
adam crigler
Oh, gosh.
tim pool
It's boring, though.
You know, like, all of these news stories that come out, they've sensationalized everything.
There was a video, I covered this a few years ago, there's a video of someone, like, a car blowing up in Iraq, I think, and then a bunch of people run in and then lay down and start rolling around on the ground, and then journalists run up and start filming it.
adam crigler
Like they're the ones who got hit by it?
tim pool
Like the people who were on the ground rolling around, like they got hit by an explosion.
I swear to God, it's like I have the video, the explosion happens, they all run in, lay down and start rolling around on the ground.
unidentified
Wow.
tim pool
There's tons of videos like this.
Here's what's crazy about it though.
You don't know who staged the video, right?
So let's use a more contemporary example.
There's those videos of the nurses or the people wearing scrubs in the middle of the street.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
And there's the woman hanging out of the car screaming, go to China if you want communism.
Yeah, yeah.
That photo goes viral.
No one knows who these doctors, nurses are.
It turns out some people have claimed they have evidence.
They're not really.
It was staged.
But then another video comes out where you see two people wearing scrubs on a corner and some woman's filming them.
She's like, what are you doing?
And they walk in the street, stand in front of the car, stage a photo with some journalists.
And then they run off and she goes, I caught you.
It's staged.
I caught you.
adam crigler
Yeah, I remember that.
tim pool
Everybody thinks that video is legit, but both of them could be staged.
adam crigler
That's true.
tim pool
Yeah, so a lot of people were questioning whether that video of the woman catching them staging it was staged itself.
adam crigler
It's all one big stage.
tim pool
Dude, everyone is just lying and pushing propaganda to gain political power.
That's what it's all about.
adam crigler
We're just simply a 15-minute fame window.
They're like, oh look, I'm on the news now!
tim pool
It's war, man.
It's war.
It's like I was saying before, when it comes to, like, what's the purpose of actual war?
Like shooting and stuff.
adam crigler
To take over someone else's property, basically?
tim pool
Take control of something.
adam crigler
Take control, yeah.
tim pool
Resources, territory, shut down a certain ideology, retaliation, revenge.
It's all about, like, you being in control of something.
But you don't need to fight to get that anymore if you can trick people.
That's true. So now it's just the the internet is a constant state of civil war. Yeah, this was really
frustrating because you know For those of you that are listening we were like trying to
figure out what to talk about And i'm like, you know, we did talk about I did a segment
on this already Then I saw that james o'keefe was like we got new emails
I confirmed and i'm like we should definitely talk about this, but we're we're just all like
The news repeats itself every day Every single day I'll see like 10 stories where it's like Trump is disagreeing with someone else.
And I'm like, how is that news?
Like have you ever had a job?
Have you ever disagreed with someone at that job?
Is that news?
Apparently.
And then you see these pundits on Twitter.
Everything is like semantics without calling anybody out.
You'll see someone say something like, Trump is being ridiculous.
And I'm like, bro, that's not an idea.
That's not an argument.
You're not arguing anything.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
What am I supposed to do with this?
And that's what the news is.
Like the front page story right now is apparently like, what's her name?
Kayleigh McEnany?
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
She told the media that they wrote fake news, and I'm like, like, I know it feels good to see her be like, you guys published fake news too, and it's like, yeah.
adam crigler
And?
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
You know, why is that the front page?
Like, I shouldn't say front page because I'm not referring to a specific paper.
adam crigler
It's like a gotcha.
It's also not shocking.
tim pool
That's fine, too, though.
But I'm just saying, like, the news is just every day, like, dude, it's all reality TV.
We're literally, we're watching the real president of America.
That's the show.
It's called Real Presidents of the United States.
Real journalists of America.
And it's like watching a journalist stand up and be like, you, sir, are an absurd man.
And well, don't you tell me you're fake news.
And it's like, WWE brought to life.
You know what I mean?
unidentified
Seriously.
tim pool
Yeah, dude, it's just... And I'm trying to weed through this and figure out if something's actually happening.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
But I think what we're in for... Some things happen.
Sometimes things happen, you know what I mean?
Like, a thing might happen.
Like today, Project Veritas did some real reporting and now there's a thing.
unidentified
Yes.
tim pool
But typically things don't happen.
And I remember hearing stories of like the BBC.
They used to like shut off at night and it would say things like, there's no news.
That was it.
adam crigler
Really?
Yeah.
lydia smith
Yeah.
adam crigler
I've never heard of that before.
tim pool
Yeah.
And there was like radio reports would be like, there's no news today.
Carry on.
I just play music.
adam crigler
Life's good.
unidentified
But today, carry on doing life, you know?
tim pool
Yeah, do your thing.
Nothing happened today.
There is no news for the day of, you know, whatever.
So what we get now is like, what did Don Lemon do?
Man, that guy is the worst.
You know, he looks into the camera and he goes, Donald Trump, why do you not like Obama?
Is it because he's better looking than you?
And it's like, it's so annoying, it's this really long, drawn out, he pauses for like five seconds in between each sentence.
adam crigler
I saw it trending, I just couldn't get myself to watch it.
tim pool
Is Michelle Obama more attractive than your wife?
adam crigler
Seriously, that's the kind of stuff he was saying?
tim pool
And I'm watching this, and I know exactly what it is.
It is not directed at Trump.
adam crigler
It's hilarious though.
tim pool
It's not, it's not for Trump at all.
It's for the audience who hates Trump and they know it.
adam crigler
That's so true.
tim pool
I'm just so sick of it.
adam crigler
I'm not saying he's hilarious.
It's, it's sad, really.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
That's what they're reporting.
It's like the main thing.
tim pool
It's not reporting.
adam crigler
It's not, yeah.
Well, I mean, technically that's what he's doing, but it's an opinion, really.
tim pool
It's a TV show called The Real Journalists of America.
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
And it's like, just, you know what, man?
I'm just done.
Just take Don Lemon and take Hannity, put them in a house together, lock the door for 30 days, and put some cameras in there, and we'll watch what happens.
And that's what you want, isn't it?
This is what you want, right?
You know what?
lydia smith
Are you not entertained?
tim pool
Yeah, is this not enough for you?
How about we do that?
unidentified
Is that not why we are here?
tim pool
I mean, actually, what's funny is I think Vice actually did something like this.
They took a Proud Boy and Antifa and made them sit down and talk.
adam crigler
Okay.
lydia smith
That's a good idea.
tim pool
It's like, this is what people want, man.
They want to see... What happened, though?
adam crigler
I'm really interested.
lydia smith
Yeah, I'm kind of curious.
tim pool
It was actually kind of bad, in my opinion, and I think the Antifa guy got up and left.
adam crigler
Oh, really?
unidentified
You know what?
adam crigler
Were they arguing, or was it just boring?
tim pool
Yeah, totally, totally.
adam crigler
Oh, they were.
Okay.
tim pool
You know what?
I just realized it.
We're done talking.
adam crigler
We're done?
tim pool
Just take Don Lemon and Sean Hannity in a boxing match.
There you go.
That'll satisfy everybody, right?
adam crigler
Eh, no.
unidentified
No.
adam crigler
I don't know.
tim pool
Rachel Maddow and Sean Hannity?
Laura Ingram and Rachel Maddow.
adam crigler
I just don't care about these.
tim pool
Because you gotta have, like, gender class in the class.
adam crigler
I don't care about any of those people.
tim pool
No, but what I mean is, when Don Lemon goes on TV, and he's like, Trump, is Obama better looking than you?
I'm like, dude, you know what he's doing.
He's not talking to Trump.
He wants all of the people who hate Trump to go, Oh no, he just did it!
unidentified
What?
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
Oh man, did you see Don Lemon?
Dude, he just, he just dumped Trump.
Damn, boy.
That's what they want.
That's what it is.
adam crigler
That was so entertaining watching you do that.
tim pool
It is the lowest of lowbrow.
So why bother talking anymore?
Just put him in the boxing ring!
And then people are going to be like, yeah, hit him, hit him!
That's what we want to see, right?
adam crigler
I'm so over all of it.
I would prefer that over the regular news.
tim pool
You know, I'm actually really happy to see this expose from Project Veritas.
Because the other story, and we'll just talk about it.
We'll just jump right into it.
Op-Ed from the New York Times.
This is what I covered on my main channel.
adam crigler
What is it?
tim pool
We believe you, Tara Reid.
Joe Biden did it.
adam crigler
Oh my god, this whole thing.
tim pool
We're gonna vote for him anyway.
adam crigler
This is so stupid.
tim pool
Yeah.
lydia smith
Oh, my lanta.
tim pool
So at this point, everything's fake, everyone's lying, why should anybody care?
You know what the craziest thing about it is though?
It's like idiocracy.
You've seen that movie?
adam crigler
Of course.
tim pool
For those that haven't seen the movie, it's about 500 years in the future, the general idea, it's from Mike Judge, smart dude.
The idea is that Evolution is just rewarding those who reproduce the most.
So people who are smart aren't surviving.
They're waiting too long at having kids, and then dumb people are just having tons of kids, and then eventually the future is just tons of really dumb people.
He got his general premise wrong.
But is Picture of the Future kind of right?
The premise isn't that stupid people have too many kids.
It's a good idea.
The premise is that our luxury makes us soft and afraid and weak.
Have you seen every episode of The Next Generation?
adam crigler
I think so, yeah.
I'm pretty sure I have, yeah.
tim pool
Do you see the one where the planet is trying to kidnap Wesley and all the kids from the Enterprise?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
So they have a computer system that takes care of all of their needs, so they have no idea how to survive.
And the solar radiation, or the radiation damage from their planetary shields is slowly, you know, killing them, it's radiation poisoning.
So then they start to like take kids or whatever.
But they've lived for so long with everything, or Wall-E's a good example too.
A bunch of big fat people floating around on chairs, everything is taken care of for them.
They end up becoming weak and unable.
So this is what we have now.
We have politics that has become WWE.
Everything's a lie.
People just want to win.
They don't care about principles.
And these people are going to be jamming the, you know, the square peg to the round hole in terms of our economic policy.
And there's nothing we can do about it.
Because the people who are voting are the people who like watching the mud wrestling.
They want to see the Don Lemon guy fight the conservative guy and just roll around in the mud.
adam crigler
Jersey Shore was a huge hit.
People loved making fun of it and watching it and real housewives of whatever city you're living in.
tim pool
We're getting President Kanye.
adam crigler
You think so?
tim pool
Definitely.
No, I don't know about definitely.
adam crigler
I wouldn't be surprised.
unidentified
Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised.
tim pool
The Kardashians, man, they know how to play the game.
adam crigler
Do you ever listen to his rant in the concert that he like went crazy, supposedly, a while ago?
I don't know how long ago, but he's like up on the stage and he's like, The government lied to you!
The big pharma lied to you!
And he's just yelling all these, you know, conspiracy things to the crowd and everyone's like, yeah!
But then, like, he disappeared for a while and it was like he came back and he's like, nah, everything's cool, everything's cool.
Somebody called him out and they were like... I feel like he knows he like got into the in the millionaires club and then they were like oh yeah Kanye come on here look at all these secrets we know.
unidentified
Yep.
adam crigler
And he's like what?
lydia smith
What?
adam crigler
No no no no no no.
And then like went nuts and then somehow it's like that the Chinese report the Chinese doctor no the reporter I think who disappeared for two months and then came back was like everything's wonderful.
tim pool
China's great.
adam crigler
China's great.
tim pool
It's like, we know what happened.
adam crigler
It's like, wait a minute.
Well, so... Kanye, dude.
Something switched in there.
tim pool
The main point of what I was bringing up for this one is the whole, you know, Joe Biden thing.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
Because it's not... Oh gosh, yeah.
Yeah, it's not just, like, it was a New York Times op-ed saying, you know what?
We're gonna own it.
We believe Tara Reid.
Whatever.
We're voting Biden anyway.
You know, the point I'm bringing this up is, I respect it.
You know what I don't respect?
The lies in the double standards where they're like, well, Joe Biden is innocent and we don't think.
Nah, just come on, say it, man.
You never cared.
It was all just about getting power.
That's what you want to do, right?
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
Yeah, man.
So here's what's freaky about the whole thing for me.
To actually come out and admit straight up, you're like, you know, we said we cared about this stuff.
We just wanted to win.
So we're going to vote for Biden.
I'm going to own it.
These people don't care about policy.
They don't care about principle.
They have no plan and they have no argument.
Now they're going to get political power.
adam crigler
We don't care.
We hate Trump.
Anything to get rid of Trump.
tim pool
No, it's not.
adam crigler
Period.
tim pool
It's not.
adam crigler
That's some of their arguments, though.
tim pool
But I'm talking about these people that just want to win. Like they just want the keys. Like, give me the keys
to the castle, man. I want to go to the tower and hang out with the millionaires, man. The
ones who were giving Kanye all the secrets. I want secrets. So they'll say whatever it takes.
And then once they get in, someone hands them like a stack of folders and they're like, which
economic plan do we do? And they're like, I don't know, man.
I just live here.
I have no idea any of this stuff works. I mean, I only just got the keys. It's that's not that it's like
It's like walking into like, you know, this like you're in a factory, right?
You walk in everything's going haywire and you like there's a dude in an office wearing a suit and you run in you're
like What do we do? It's like I don't know man. I I never did
anything here I just sit here to look like I'm in charge.
I mean, they just wanted me- Actually, it reminds me of Family Guy.
You ever see that episode where they put him in charge of the cigarette company?
adam crigler
No.
tim pool
Because he's just a moron and it gets him out of the way, so they make him CEO?
adam crigler
No.
tim pool
And let him do whatever- Something like that.
That's what it is.
adam crigler
It just makes me think of Adam West, though.
tim pool
Oh, he's amazing.
adam crigler
Adam West is great, yeah.
lydia smith
He's the best.
adam crigler
He's a clueless mayor, though, right?
tim pool
He's not clueless.
lydia smith
He's just nuts.
adam crigler
Okay, crazy?
Cuckoo?
tim pool
Yeah, out of it.
I'm sorry, man.
Mayor West, rest in peace, would be a much better leader than what we're getting right now.
lydia smith
He's my favorite family member.
tim pool
No, no, no, hold on.
Because the Mayor West of Koag, played by Adam West, actually cared.
adam crigler
That's true.
tim pool
And he was convinced of bad policies.
There was that one episode where they changed the drinking age to 50.
To 50?
Yeah, and because Brian is 50 in dog years, 56, he was able to buy alcohol for everybody.
adam crigler
Oh, that's funny.
tim pool
So then Peter and them are using him to get drunk.
But then they decide to get the law changed.
They go to Adam West's house, and he's with, you know, Peter's sister-in-law or whatever, who's drinking wine.
And they're like, wait a minute, she's not 50.
You can't give her, you know, alcohol.
And he's like, oh yeah, you're right.
Okay, we'll change the law back.
unidentified
Wow.
tim pool
Like you actually said, hey, this doesn't work because you did this. And he goes, I didn't
realize that. Let me fix it. That is way more than you get from a ton of these politicians
who are willing to say whatever they want to say just to get power. I mean, look, look at what
Joe Biden's done with his life. Look at look at the weird scandals, the cronyism.
adam crigler
He's lied for a long time.
tim pool
Oh, that video that went viral.
adam crigler
Yeah.
Describe it, you watched it.
Yeah, I watched it.
Basically, what it is, is him telling, I guess it's a room full of reporters, like, I graduated, top of my class, I had three PhDs, and I was a lawyer, and all these other things.
And then they're finding out he was like, all of it bottom 10% yeah yeah he graduated with just one
tim pool
degree and he made it all up and he said i'm sorry my memory failed me and that was a
long time ago dude if your memory is failing you when you're in your 40s and now you're 78 and you want
to be president man i don't know where your memory's going at this point but he couldn't even
remember a name so think about the kind of person he is true he is he
He is a swamp monster.
Donald Trump is a different kind of monster.
Donald Trump is an American culture monster.
But Americans like American culture stuff.
So you can argue for good or for bad.
I'm not here to defend Trump.
I hate bringing him up in reference to Biden.
But Joe Biden is the swamp.
He embodies it.
He brings his kid to foreign countries, gets him jobs, flies him on a plane to China doing this big deal.
His son's buddies are getting these kickbacks.
You get all the media lining this stuff up in 2014, Joe Biden, soft corruption, all this other stuff, and then what happens?
Oh, now he's president.
Now you gotta leave him alone.
adam crigler
He's a wannabe president.
tim pool
Oh yeah, sorry, sorry.
Now he's running for president.
adam crigler
Thank you.
tim pool
Now he's running.
No, Joe Biden is not president.
No, he's running for president.
adam crigler
Wasn't gonna let that one go by.
tim pool
No, that was a... I misspoke.
I misspoke, I apologize.
I hope this doesn't reflect poorly on me, and I will still have your vote come November.
adam crigler
No, he's the swamp monster that is the prop for all the monsters that are already embedded that want the puppet to do what they want them to do.
That's the vibe I get anyway.
Obviously, I don't know any truth in that.
tim pool
I wonder if Trump really is draining the swamp in that capacity, or if the swamp is just draining.
What I mean is, is Trump a symptom of the draining swamp?
Like, the swamp wasn't strong enough to keep him out?
You know how I've described it before?
adam crigler
He just runs and jumps into the swamp and all the water gets splashed out, and now the fish are just flapping.
tim pool
You know what I don't understand about the progressives?
So the way I described it before is you have this big ivory tower, and you have people like Biden and Pelosi.
There's the keys to the castle Democrats.
They just want to be let in.
They don't want to do anything for you.
They don't care.
Just let them in the castle, give them the money.
They want to kick back and not do any real work.
That's what happens.
I mean, look at Nancy Pelosi.
I have all this ice cream.
I couldn't live without it.
It's like, dude, your district is full of human waste.
There's a lot you could be doing right now, but you know what?
Fine, whatever.
It's your retirement.
I get it.
So here's what happens.
Bernie Sanders starts marching up with, you know, a torch and a bunch of people behind him and he bangs on the door.
Let us in!
unidentified
The people are angry and want a change!
tim pool
And then they look down and they go, Go away, Bernie!
And they start throwing stuff at him, and he's like, Oof!
And then the other side, they have a bull with this crazy orange hair, and they just let him go.
And he runs full speed and smashes through the door and starts going like, Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr And so, the point I'm making is, Donald Trump clearly is not a part of this crony structure.
You can argue there's a ton of things wrong with Trump, for sure.
adam crigler
That's true.
tim pool
I get that vibe.
unidentified
You're right.
tim pool
But I wonder why the progressives haven't just, at this point, been like, you know what?
Sit back and let the bull run its course.
adam crigler
I mean, Trump was a Democrat, wasn't he?
tim pool
Oh yeah.
adam crigler
For a while.
tim pool
He went back and forth.
adam crigler
Yeah, he goes back and forth.
It doesn't matter.
tim pool
But a lot of his policies are moderate.
And that's not coming from me.
That's Vox.com's Matthew Iglesias.
I believe it was Matthew Galassi's left-wing website said Trump ran as a moderate.
You can call him far-right all you want, but that media smear doesn't work.
That's like the establishment trying to knock him down.
There's a lot of things wrong with the man in terms of, you know, character and statutes,
you know, the way he should be behaving as president, things like that.
You can have a conversation about that.
But what I don't get is the progressives should have just been like, we'll just wait this
You know what I mean?
Like, after the bull is done and tired, and then leaves the building and just goes off to graze in the pasture, then Bernie and your people can, you know, knock on the- like, there's no door left.
They can walk right in.
adam crigler
Yeah, the door's been knocked down.
tim pool
So I think what would really happen is after the bull leaves, the people who brought the bull will then stand next to the people who brought Bernie, and they'll have a conversation.
And it might not be Bernie, but, like, the establishment is on its last leg.
The only reason the media entertained the Biden stuff is because it was put out by the progressives.
And they knew they were in trouble.
The New York Times, I'd be willing to bet, when they ran that defense piece for Biden, they started getting tons of emails from people being like, what are you doing?
Why are you defending this man?
Because a lot of people who read New York Times are probably Bernie supporters.
Democrats are split.
So the New York Times was probably scared their bottom line was getting hit.
Flip-flopped and called for an investigation.
Then all of a sudden the dominoes started falling down and the narrative broke.
And they're forced to acknowledge it.
This is the end of the establishment.
Trump destroyed the Republican establishment.
Bernie wasn't strong enough to stop the Democratic establishment.
But they're falling apart regardless because Bernie's supporters and the progressives are ruthless.
They're really ruthless, man.
They're like, you know, cancel culture all the way.
But to bring it back to the main point, man, isn't it refreshing that they're being honest about what they want to do and why they want to do it?
I do like that.
adam crigler
Absolutely.
It's a rare treat.
unidentified
It is nice.
adam crigler
The media's being honest?
tim pool
Well, it's the people.
It's the columnists, you know what I mean?
adam crigler
True.
tim pool
It's like, name a man-made disaster.
And you can predict what the spokesperson's gonna say.
Like, look at the Project Veritas story we covered.
You know exactly what they're gonna do.
Whoa, we completely deny any wrongdoing, we're totally confused by this, and then, like, when you actually see behind the scenes, they're lying to your face.
unidentified
I just wish, you know, man...
tim pool
Why can't we have honesty?
Like, it's not even about honesty, it's about balance.
Yin Yang, man.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
We only ever get lies.
adam crigler
Yeah, that's annoying.
tim pool
Yeah, and that's why Trump wins.
That's, I think, well, it's one of the reasons.
Guy gets up on stage and he just says whatever he wants.
It's refreshing.
People are probably like, eh.
adam crigler
Hey, that guy's telling it like it is.
I like that.
tim pool
They said the same thing about, you know, W. Like, he talks like a normal guy.
He just says it, you know?
But Trump, that dude really just does say it.
Like, my favorite thing ever with Trump just blurting stuff out is when he was like, he's being interviewed in front of the helicopter or whatever in the Rose Garden or something.
And they're like, what's going on with this Saudi Arabia deal?
And he goes, oh, it's really, really great.
They're going to pay us a whole lot of money.
They pay really, really well.
It's going to be fantastic.
Great for the economy.
And all of the anti-war leftists just like, their jaws hit the floor.
Like, he just blurted it out.
unidentified
He just said it.
tim pool
Something the president's not supposed to admit.
We sell weapons for cash to bolster our economy.
And then the other funny thing was when Trump said that he was going to be sending, or we might send troops to Saudi Arabia, someone in the administration gave a comment saying Saudi Arabia pays cash.
lydia smith
Oh my goodness.
tim pool
We're just getting the truth on this one.
I can appreciate that.
Not that I agree with it.
So yeah.
I don't know what to expect, man.
I'm just sick of the lies.
adam crigler
I'll tell you what I don't expect.
The truth from mainstream media.
lydia smith
You might be wrong, because I'm looking at a letter to the editor from Martin Tolchin, who was a former member of the Washington Times Bureau and a founder of Politico.
And he's talking about throwing all democratic values under the bus for Joe Biden.
And I was like, that's refreshing.
Can we get a little bit more of that?
tim pool
I saw that and apparently someone, was it Molly Hemingway?
Is that her name?
lydia smith
Possibly.
tim pool
From the Federalist?
Yeah.
I think she tweeted about it and then someone got really mad because this, what's his name, Tolchin?
lydia smith
Yeah, Martin Tolchin.
tim pool
Is listed as a founder of Politico.
lydia smith
Yep.
tim pool
And wrote this thing.
What was he basically saying?
Like, forget all our values, just vote Biden anyway?
lydia smith
Let me see what he said.
He said, I totally disagree with this editorial.
I don't want an investigation.
I want a coronation of Joe Biden.
Would he make a good president?
Unlikely.
Would he make a good president?
Would he make a great president?
No.
Would he make a better president than the present occupant?
Absolutely.
I don't want justice, whatever that may be.
I want to win the removal of Donald Trump from office.
That's it.
adam crigler
That's what I was saying.
tim pool
That's all they want.
adam crigler
They just want to beat Trump.
lydia smith
Yeah, that's all they want.
tim pool
Well, they want the keys to the castle, man.
You know that meme of, what's that guy's name?
Andre?
I don't know.
I don't know what show that's from.
His show's hilarious.
unidentified
yeah i don't know what show that's he's hilarious and he's on the fence
tim pool
that's what the democrats are saying right now yeah basically well you know
because because here's what i'll say about trump they're not arguing anything about him
Just saying he's bad doesn't tell me anything.
I get really frustrated by these pundits on Twitter when they're calling Kayleigh McEnany, I think is her name, they're like, what a ridiculous press conference.
She was so dumb, she didn't even say anything.
And I'm like, hold on, bro.
You addressed nothing she said.
You have told me nothing.
If you want to criticize the president, tell me what it is you're criticizing and tell me what you want to say about it.
If Donald Trump says, we're going to build a wall, don't come out and say, Trump's ridiculous, this is insane.
You might as well just throw a banana or a pie.
It doesn't mean anything.
adam crigler
It would at least be entertaining.
tim pool
Well, exactly.
But they don't actually have an argument other than, let me in.
This is why I don't think they actually think Trump is all that bad.
I really don't.
I think some people do.
I think they know he's not that bad.
And they don't have an argument.
adam crigler
But half the people who don't like him just blindly believe the other people
that are just telling him, tell, oh, he's bad.
Oh, he's bad?
Oh, okay, he's bad.
Yeah. That's it.
tim pool
Well, I mean, there's a million and one videos of like you walk up to someone on the street and say like,
so why don't you like the president?
And they're like, uh.
adam crigler
Oh, you want actual reasons?
I can't just give you emotions?
unidentified
Yep.
tim pool
And this is true of the people who hate Hillary, too.
A lot of people very similar.
You could do this to either political faction.
adam crigler
That's true.
tim pool
But, you know, I think right now the main point I'm trying to make is not that both sides have their dummies.
It's that the high-profile pundits of one side are straight-up admitting it now.
Look, they accused Brett Kavanaugh Did you know what- They went crazy at- Do you know what he was accused of?
adam crigler
What?
Like- I mean, I kind of know the story.
tim pool
Trying to keep a family friendly, man, but that some woman claimed that he'd go to parties where they would drug women and line up outside the door to have- to take turns on the drugged unconscious woman.
Yikes.
That is so insane.
adam crigler
That's messed up.
lydia smith
It's the other pale.
tim pool
Like, people were like, if anything like that ever happened, it would be one of the biggest scandals in the history of like the- where did he go, to Yale, I think?
It would be like the biggest scandal in the history of the school.
This is ridiculous.
This story is so far-fetched.
And it's like, you look at these people and you know they're lying.
And so they lie about Trump and Russiagate.
We now know, like, do you know what's going on with the Russiagate stuff?
Like the FBI rogue agents basically setting up Trump staff, Flynn specifically.
And we'll see if any indictments come.
I'll be surprised, but you know, maybe.
The Durham investigation.
But then you have Ukrainegate.
So we get Russiagate, Russiagate 2.
And then we got Chinagate, which is really, really funny.
There's a brief period last week where they tried claiming that Trump was secretly working for China.
adam crigler
Oh my goodness.
tim pool
Based off of one story from Politico, claiming that Trump owed Bank of China millions of dollars.
And then they had to correct it.
Then they had to retract and correct it.
Because they never even reached out for comment to the Bank of China.
And it turned out it was a filing error.
And that was the basis of their third scandal.
So I'll tell you what, man.
It gets to a point where... I've never really, you know... Like, the way they've described Trump as, like, all of these pure evil, embodiment of pure orange evil, whatever.
I've never... I don't buy into that stuff.
I read the news.
I know they're lying.
It's politics.
But now they're just, they're done.
It's like, we've exposed their lies so many times, they've finally just, it's like, I imagine you've got this Democrat standing in front of you, and they scream, Donald Trump is working for Russia!
And you go, where's your proof?
I don't believe it!
And they keep screaming it, and then finally evidence comes out Trump isn't, and they go, well, he's pressuring Ukraine to dig up dirt!
And then you're like, prove it!
And we've yelled at them so many times you're lying, they've finally just gone, All right, we're lying.
You know, we're just gonna vote for him anyway.
adam crigler
We broke the dam.
tim pool
It's like they were wearing a mask and we were like hammering away at it and it finally broke and now they're just like...
adam crigler
Because people, humans in general, aren't distracted by life.
They're literally stuck at home doing nothing but watching the mainstream media juggle these lies.
They're like, oh, fumbling all the lies.
Well, you got me.
They're just lies.
tim pool
Why is Biden polling higher than Trump then?
adam crigler
Is it true?
tim pool
Right.
adam crigler
Who's saying it?
Who's polling?
They're not asking me.
tim pool
Yeah, that's true.
Nobody called me.
adam crigler
Yeah, exactly.
Where are they polling?
tim pool
And one of the other things, too, is a lot of Trump supporters claim that they purposefully lie.
adam crigler
Trump supporters do?
tim pool
Yeah, they lie.
adam crigler
Oh, like, yeah, yeah, we want Biden.
They want Biden to win.
tim pool
Because they want the turnout to be low.
And if the Biden supporters think they're guaranteed to win, they don't show up.
Whereas Trump supporters are like, they're in it for Trump.
adam crigler
Yeah, definitely.
tim pool
Yeah, I mean, you look at the primary, with the Republican primary, Donald Trump, you don't need to go vote.
He's the nominee, he's the incumbent.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
He's breaking records.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Because his base wants to vote for him.
adam crigler
Yeah, I mean, a Trump supporter, they love Trump.
It's like, if you like Trump, you know, if you're for Trump, you're, like, all in, 100%.
Like, you know?
It's like, it's really apparent.
Like, even people in chat right now, they're like, Trump!
King Trump!
tim pool
You know what this reminds me of?
You know that saying, I can run faster scared than you can mad?
adam crigler
Okay.
I don't know it.
tim pool
You never heard that?
lydia smith
No.
tim pool
So it's like, it's a funny joke where you're about to get in a fight with somebody and you're like, I can run faster scared than you can mad.
lydia smith
I'm terrified you're just mad.
adam crigler
I get it.
tim pool
Like if you're mad, I'm going to run like, ah, adrenaline pumping.
So it's kind of like that.
The people who are voting against Trump are just angry.
So the people who want Trump, Hmm.
feel good when they go to the polling station and slam that button for Trump.
It's like Michael Moore said, voting for Trump would be the biggest F you in the history of the
world. And so people get to feel that when they go to the polling station, be it a primary or
otherwise, they're like Donald Trump. Bam. Yeah, that's true. What about the Biden people? Nobody
adam crigler
Not really.
tim pool
The only thing they have going for them are the people who want to go and say, F you Trump.
But I'm willing to bet there are substantially more people who love waving Trump flags than people who hate Trump.
adam crigler
I agree.
Definitely.
tim pool
Because I think what the left has is a small, it's a large faction, don't get me wrong, it's probably in the millions, of like super anti-Trump resistance people, high profile ones.
But most liberals don't care.
That's not paying attention, have no idea what's going on.
adam crigler
Well, a lot of liberals out there probably think Biden's a sleazy old man, which he pretty much is.
tim pool
Some of them for sure.
And like they're moving independent and stuff like that.
Like there was a Gallup poll showing that people identify as conservative has ticked up and liberal has ticked down.
Like I think two points.
So I think what we're seeing is there are going to be regular liberals who normally go into the polling station and just hit the D button.
They have no idea what's going on.
adam crigler
True.
tim pool
They don't know.
They don't care.
They don't want to know.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Then you have some people who have been lifelong Democrats who I've talked to recently, like friends of mine, who completely agree about Joe Biden.
And this is what the establishment— Completely agree that they don't care?
adam crigler
He's out of his mind.
unidentified
Oh, OK.
tim pool
You can't vote for this man.
adam crigler
Right.
Oh, OK.
tim pool
It's like, what is this?
The argument you're giving me is to vote for a dude who's literally sun setting and can't talk or a guy who annoys you.
Right.
lydia smith
The options.
tim pool
Look, man, this is what I said.
adam crigler
It's like, I need to at least be able to understand what you're saying.
You need to speak coherently when you're on stage trying to convince me to vote for you.
And we're going to see Trump versus Biden.
It's like Trump may be many things, but he can speak.
He's a good speaker.
He can speak.
And I can understand the words he's saying.
Sometimes they're a little far-fetched, but Biden has, it looks like he's trying to find words to put together.
Look, here's a sentence I made.
And it's like, that doesn't even make sense, dude.
tim pool
It's almost like Biden is thinking to himself, just keep saying words.
unidentified
And he does, and they cover for him.
tim pool
Yeah, they do.
adam crigler
They're like, oh man, he said some amazing things.
lydia smith
He said some words.
adam crigler
I mean, we picked the words and rearranged them a little bit.
tim pool
Let me give you a real argument as to why you need to support Joe Biden.
adam crigler
Please, enlighten me.
tim pool
Donald Trump is a bad president.
adam crigler
Oh, you got me.
You sold me.
unidentified
That's it.
adam crigler
All right.
Yeah, sure.
tim pool
So would you really vote for Donald Trump?
Are you a bigot?
Are you racist?
adam crigler
I mean, I'll answer that.
Yeah, I would.
tim pool
So you admit you're racist.
adam crigler
I would vote for Trump.
tim pool
There it is.
unidentified
Boom.
tim pool
Confirmed.
Adam, you're racist.
unidentified
Oh, wow.
adam crigler
I guess so.
tim pool
So you admit it.
adam crigler
No.
lydia smith
Of course not.
tim pool
But that's the argument.
That's all that's ever said.
adam crigler
I know.
It's so silly.
unidentified
No, no, no.
tim pool
OK, I get it.
unidentified
Listen.
lydia smith
It's reductive.
tim pool
There used to be arguments.
The progressives would say things like universal health care, you know, Green New Deal, jobs guarantees, things like that.
Hey, man, I can hear those arguments.
adam crigler
Like gay marriage, all that kind of stuff.
tim pool
But Trump's for gay marriage.
adam crigler
I know.
That used to be a thing, but now no longer.
tim pool
Right now, what is Joe Biden offering?
Serious question.
Do you know what Joe Biden is offering?
Do you?
adam crigler
I don't.
lydia smith
I don't.
adam crigler
I have no idea.
tim pool
I gotta be honest, man.
adam crigler
There's one tweet that he put out there.
I say he in the lightest terms because I highly doubt he did any of it, but it was basically about changing our energy infrastructure to renewable instead of consumable.
tim pool
Do you know what specifically he wanted to do?
adam crigler
Not really, no.
tim pool
I couldn't tell you either, man.
adam crigler
Yeah, exactly.
No specifics.
tim pool
I can tell you what Bernie wanted to do.
adam crigler
Open up the borders.
tim pool
Bernie wanted a moratorium on deportations.
Bernie wanted a path of citizenship.
Bernie wanted universal health care.
Bernie wanted to abolish private health care within, I think, the first four to six years.
Bernie wanted tuition-free college.
Expanded college.
I can tell you what Bernie wanted.
And I disagree with those things.
And you know what?
I wish that's what we actually had.
And maybe I took it for granted.
You know, actually, look, Ocasio-Cortez, I can tell you what she wants as a politician.
Joe Biden?
I don't think he wants anything.
adam crigler
I don't think he knows himself.
tim pool
He wants to be president.
adam crigler
I don't think he wants that.
tim pool
You've seen the Atlantic article, Stay Alive Joe Biden.
Yeah, yeah.
There it is.
adam crigler
Your corporeal essence.
tim pool
Vote for Joe Biden.
He's alive.
adam crigler
He's alive.
And he's not orange.
tim pool
There is one, there's potentially one argument for Biden.
Chaos vote.
Just because, like, you want to see a deranged old senile man, press the nuke button, I guess.
adam crigler
But he wouldn't.
unidentified
It wouldn't be him.
lydia smith
Yeah, it would not be him.
adam crigler
No.
tim pool
I don't know, man.
I guess maybe they wheelchair him into a meeting with the Ayatollah in Iran, and he's like, and they're like, that's great, Grandpa.
adam crigler
You can put him in another room.
You heard him say attack, right?
I heard him say attack.
That's what he said?
unidentified
No.
adam crigler
He said attack.
All right, attack.
tim pool
They're going to wheelchair him into the room, and then whoever the VP is will walk up and be like, he'll lean out of the door to the reporters.
We're now getting ready for negotiations and then the journalists start writing things down and then they start wheeling Joe Biden out of the room and they just put him by the window and he's like slumped over sleeping with like the sunbeam on him.
He's got a blanket on his lap.
adam crigler
You know the second Lord of the Rings film?
The Land of the Horses or whatever?
tim pool
Land of the Horses?
adam crigler
And you got the king that's all white and frail and the guy whispering in his ear like He doesn't belong here.
That's the VP and that's Biden.
tim pool
That was like Cheney and Bush.
adam crigler
It's even worse here.
tim pool
One of the bigger problems that Democrats have, I think, is that they're trying to go for the resentment vote.
Who hates Trump, right?
But by doing so, they're generating an inverse reaction.
adam crigler
True.
tim pool
Because people like me, I am so sick and tired of the lies.
adam crigler
Same here.
tim pool
I want to see that, like, in 2016, check it out.
You ever see that video of the woman falling to her knees and screaming?
adam crigler
Yes.
You showed it to me.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
tim pool
It's a funny viral meme.
adam crigler
It is pretty good.
tim pool
I don't know who this woman is.
I mean her no disrespect.
I don't care.
adam crigler
I see that a lot now, actually.
tim pool
The only thing I felt when I saw this stuff back in 2016 was I laughed.
I'm like, man, these people sure are crazy.
But now they've actually got me emotionally invested in wanting the schadenfreude.
Is it schadenfreude?
How do you pronounce it?
lydia smith
Schadenfreude.
tim pool
Schadenfreude.
They've actually got me so emotionally invested in being sick and tired of their lies.
Now, if I saw a video like that, it'd make me feel good.
Like, catharsis, you know?
We've endured, man, when Russiagate happened, I was like, well, you know, this may happen, we should entertain these investigations, see what happens, and then it turned out it was bunk, and I'm like, well, now that we've all determined it's fake, we can all move on, and they didn't.
Then we got Ukrainegate, and I was like, are you seriously doing this again?
Then they tried to impeach him and I was like, oh no.
Now I'm like, I long for the day when you get to feel some kind of comeuppance for all that you have put us through.
adam crigler
You think it'll happen?
tim pool
Lies.
I think Trump's gonna win.
adam crigler
I think so too.
tim pool
One reason.
Donald Trump, under him for the first, you know, several years, the economy was on fire!
Best numbers of our lives, says Jim Cramer of CNBC.
Then the pandemic hits and the economy has fallen into the gutter.
Who is better equipped and who has proven they can improve the economy, Joe Biden or Trump?
adam crigler
Well, what about this whole thing that it was Obama that set up the economy to do so well under Trump?
tim pool
Nope.
adam crigler
I mean, I don't know if this is the truth or not, but that's what people are arguing.
Yeah, there's a pipe dream.
He doesn't have a magic wand.
unidentified
Oh, look at that.
tim pool
What did Obama say?
Like 4% would be impossible?
lydia smith
Yeah, it's a pipe dream.
He doesn't have a magic wand.
tim pool
And then, boop, Trump did it.
adam crigler
Oh, look at that.
tim pool
And then Obama was like, well, that was actually me.
And then the economy tanked.
And it was like, it's done.
adam crigler
So Obama said that.
tim pool
He said, there's no magic wand.
You can't hit those numbers.
And then Trump hit the numbers.
So I love it how when the economy's bad, they're like, well that's the current president's fault.
And when the economy's good, they're like, well you realize there's a delay effect from the previous president.
Shut up, that's not true.
Look, Donald Trump had tariffs, he crushed the TPP, he made a ton of dramatic changes.
The craziest thing to me, It was what Michael Moore said, that Trump walked into that auto execs, and told them straight up, I'm gonna put a 30% tax on your cars, no one will ever buy them again.
And Michael Moore said this, and he was like, this sent a message to people in Michigan, like Trump's actually standing up for you.
It's the weirdest thing, why did Michael Moore have to sell his soul?
Not like he was a great person to begin with.
But that monologue he had, back in 2016, the biggest FU, he was right.
So you get someone like that with Trump, who has proven the economy worked under him really well, man.
adam crigler
Seems like it, yeah.
tim pool
Before the pandemic, I had spoken with several people who said things like, I have never made more money in my life.
adam crigler
It's been the best years of my life.
When I first got here, you ordered dominoes randomly, right?
And on top of the dominoes box, it was like, we're hiring managers, six figures, Taco Bell.
Dominoes?
Six figure job?
Like, what?
tim pool
Taco Bell announced managers would get 100k a year.
adam crigler
That's insane.
tim pool
Because the competition was so fierce.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Because unemployment was so low.
So you can criticize, like I said a million times, there's tons of things you can call them out for.
For me, I usually call them out on foreign policy.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
But when it comes to what the American people want, In November, I think they're gonna be looking at Sleepy Creepy Joe.
Yeah.
Unless they get rid of him.
Maybe they will.
And Donald Trump, all he has to do is say, for the first three years of my first term, the economy was the best we'd ever seen.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
Due to an unforeseen crisis, the pandemic, the economy took a hit.
I will make this economy better than ever, just like I did the first time.
And people are gonna say, I believe him.
Yep, they are.
Why would I trust Joe Biden?
That dude's gonna fall asleep.
lydia smith
Yeah, seriously.
adam crigler
Yep.
lydia smith
I do know what he wants, by the way, Tim.
I came up with it.
Joe Biden wants to retire.
He wants a rocking chair.
And I don't blame him.
How long has he been in politics?
Since like 200 BC.
Nice.
Spitballing.
unidentified
He's 78, I think.
lydia smith
He should retire, man.
tim pool
I feel, I feel, yeah, it is sad.
It's abuse.
adam crigler
It's, yeah, it's, he's done it.
tim pool
You know, you know what it is?
It's like, remember, we talked about this the other day, like when Obama said, you don't have to do this, Joe?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
It was Joe Biden.
He's like, you know, he puts his hand on Obama's shoulder and he's like, I'll be the sacrifice for the crony establishment.
You can count on me.
unidentified
Joe, wake up.
tim pool
They're throwing them to the wolves.
You know, it really does feel like in 2016, the Republican establishment tried their hardest to stop Trump.
They couldn't do it.
They didn't cheat, though.
The Democrats cheated Bernie, and Bernie wasn't strong enough to push back.
Like, the easiest example of this is, remember when, I don't know if you watched the debates, do you see when Andrew Yang's mic was turned off?
adam crigler
No.
tim pool
You saw that, right?
lydia smith
I don't remember seeing that.
tim pool
Yeah, and Marianne Williamson.
So, in the Democrat debates, there's a scene, there's one point where people are talking, and then you see Andrew Yang start talking, but you can't hear anything.
He, like, raises his hand, you see his mouth move, no sound comes out.
lydia smith
Oh, no, I do remember that.
adam crigler
Yeah.
lydia smith
Yeah, they turned his mic off.
tim pool
Do you have any idea what Donald Trump would have done if his mic was off?
lydia smith
He'd have flipped that podium.
tim pool
He'd go like this.
adam crigler
He'd walk over to the next mic.
tim pool
He'd go, give me this, give me this, excuse me!
Excuse me.
No, my microphone.
Excuse me.
No, excuse me.
I'm talking now.
You need to fix my microphone.
unidentified
Totally, I absolutely agree.
adam crigler
Well played, sir.
Well played.
You went all in.
tim pool
He would lean over and grab someone's mic and go, excuse me, I'm trying to talk here.
My microphone needs to be turned back on.
What did Andrew Yang do?
lydia smith
He was polite.
adam crigler
Nothing.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
And I got mad respect for Yang.
I like the dude.
I think he's very smart.
But when it comes to cutthroat politics of that level, you gotta have more of that Trump in you.
adam crigler
Yeah, it's true.
tim pool
Joe Biden, there's nothing left.
It's like he's just a withered husk.
Put him in a wheelchair and wheel him.
You know, CNN wanted to have a debate where he sat down.
adam crigler
You remember that?
No.
Yes!
lydia smith
That's the rocking chair.
adam crigler
Oh man, it's gonna be hilarious watching them two debate.
tim pool
They put him in a wheelchair.
adam crigler
Trump's gonna eat him apart.
tim pool
Part of me really wants to watch.
adam crigler
I can't wait!
tim pool
Part of me really doesn't.
adam crigler
I cannot wait to watch.
Seriously, I don't care.
I can't wait.
tim pool
I don't know, man.
adam crigler
It's gonna be bad.
It's gonna be good.
tim pool
I think they're taking bets on Cuomo coming in.
Yeah, I saw it.
So, Jacobin, which is the socialist magazine.
adam crigler
He hasn't chosen.
I don't like it.
I don't like the way that they're going to try to do this.
tim pool
If they try to do it.
Who knows?
It might be too late.
It's too late.
But Jacobin, the socialist magazine, wrote that rumors are circulating.
They're going to pull him out.
adam crigler
Good.
tim pool
Maybe.
And that's why I think maybe they're not really admitting it about Joe Biden scandals.
Maybe what they're really doing is, I'm doing air quotes, admitting it so that they can be like, you guys are right, we're gonna have to get rid of him.
adam crigler
Or they're just biding time.
Yeah, they're trying to like extend it until it's too late.
Oh, by the way, boom, here's our new candidate.
tim pool
That's why I don't think they're gonna get I don't either.
I don't know, man.
unidentified
what they're gonna do. It is bedlam. You know what it is?
tim pool
It's the last bit of the ship is still above the water as it sinks. And there's like
seven establishment people crowded on the top trying to figure out what to do to save their crony
establishment.
adam crigler
Dude, as soon as Biden said, I'm gonna pick a woman as a VP.
The Hillary documentary came out.
It was like, boom, Hillary.
Every time I would turn on anything, it was like Hillary's face.
I'm like, why am I seeing her face everywhere?
lydia smith
What is happening?
adam crigler
And then all of a sudden, now she's doing town hall meetings with him.
Oh, don't worry, Joe.
You can go ahead and sleep.
I got this.
And I'm going to be talking.
And it's like, what is going on here?
lydia smith
Make it stop.
adam crigler
She didn't legitimately win.
I said it as a joke.
I said it as a joke.
tim pool
I got a question.
Can I take out life insurance policies on people I don't know?
lydia smith
Like Joe Biden?
tim pool
Well, if he picks Hillary as a VP.
lydia smith
Yep, yep, yep.
unidentified
For sure.
tim pool
Definitely.
What's the biggest policy you offer?
And then it's going to happen.
I'm going to be sitting in the insurance office and I'm going to ask, can I get an insurance policy on someone I don't know?
And they're gonna be like, well, I guess so.
Who's your choice?
Well, you heard recently that Hillary was the VP choice for Biden.
Yes.
I would like to.
No, no, no, no, no way.
lydia smith
We're not doing that.
tim pool
The guy's going to be like, uh-uh, uh-uh.
lydia smith
We're not taking bets.
adam crigler
This is the 20th time someone has come up to me with this idea!
unidentified
We're not doing this!
tim pool
He's gonna be like, we can certainly arrange that, just sign the dotted line, and I'll go, that's not weird to you?
No, about 50 other people just signed the same policy earlier yesterday.
adam crigler
It's like when 100,000 people win the same lottery, they all get like a dollar instead of $100,000.
tim pool
Everybody gets rich?
adam crigler
Sure, sure.
You could take out this policy.
I mean, all these other people did it, so.
lydia smith
50 cents, but yeah.
adam crigler
I mean, if it goes, you get a little bit.
tim pool
The CEO of the insurance company takes out an insurance policy on Biden with another company for his company.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
To cover it.
Yeah, exactly.
adam crigler
Oh, man.
tim pool
November is going to be... Fun.
Fun.
adam crigler
I hope it ends up being fun and not something worse.
lydia smith
I'm choosing to believe it will be fun.
tim pool
How would you feel if Biden won?
adam crigler
I mean, I don't know.
Yeah, I don't know.
tim pool
I'd laugh.
I'd laugh the same as I laugh at Trump.
adam crigler
I would be more nervous about our economy and our country than I would if Trump won again.
tim pool
I felt like Hillary was way worse than Trump, but not enough to motivate me to want to support Trump at all.
Now, Joe Biden is the same thing as Hillary.
That was the same administration.
And now, you take the evil that is Hillary Clinton and combine it with senility, now I'm freaking out.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Because, like, could you imagine, like, the Wicked Witch of the West, but she's, like, mentally deranged.
adam crigler
Forgetting where she put her broom.
tim pool
But all power—like, as powerful as the witch was.
Like, flying monkeys going around, but she can't think straight, so she's just, like, smashing things and, like, throwing things at people.
You'd be like, that's—at least the Wicked Witch has a plan, I guess.
adam crigler
Sure.
tim pool
So, but I didn't want her to win either.
Now Joe Biden really scares me because he's like, He embodies all of that, plus he's lost his mind.
But you know, I guess it's not fair.
He's not gonna be president, even if he wins.
adam crigler
I love the meme that's going around.
It's Kim Jong Un, but his face is Hillary's face.
unidentified
Have you seen this?
adam crigler
I haven't seen that, I'll have to look it up.
It's frightening, but amazing.
It's really good.
lydia smith
I don't get it.
adam crigler
Total side note, but...
lydia smith
Just as a side note, there's a meme we have to look up.
tim pool
There's a meme.
unidentified
It's pretty good.
tim pool
We were listening to a Rogan podcast on the way to Rogan, and it was, I think, Owen Smith, and he mentioned that the Biden vote will probably be people who want that feeling back of what life was like during the Obama years.
adam crigler
Oh, OK.
tim pool
What feeling was that?
adam crigler
Normalcy.
You asked me earlier, what would Biden bring?
And I think back to what was he saying?
What do I remember him saying whenever he spoke?
Half of the time, all I could hear was Obama.
Well, back when me and Obama were together, back when Obama was Obama, it's like, what about now?
tim pool
But that's the problem with his policies, because if you actually look at his track record, the left hates his policies.
It's like, tell me Biden, when you locked up those kids in cages and built the cages in the first place.
Well, I mean, duh.
They called Obama the deporter-in-chief.
adam crigler
Yeah, that's right.
tim pool
Joe Biden has that legacy behind him.
And that's, I think my favorite, uh, one of my favorite articles was from, I
think CNN or was it the Washington Post?
Maybe I can't remember who they said.
When did Barack Obama become a Republican?
CNN.
And then Washington Post wrote Barack Obama, the conservative.
And I'm like, wow.
I don't know what that makes me moderate, I guess.
If Barack Obama is the conservative now, but I guess it's because, and I've long
maintained this Donald Trump ran as a moderate.
And so because they tried using the far right smear, they shoved themselves
into, into the far left corner.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Cause if Trump is far, right.
I don't know, where else do you go after that?
adam crigler
Yeah, it's like they go to push, but they're pushing against the wall, just moving themselves.
unidentified
Right.
lydia smith
Yeah.
adam crigler
Yeah, especially considering... The wall stayed where it was.
tim pool
What does Trump weigh?
Do you know what Trump, like 260?
lydia smith
260 something.
adam crigler
And he's like, seriously, he's 260?
lydia smith
He's a big dude.
tim pool
But he's like six foot four or five or something, right?
lydia smith
Yeah, he is very tall.
adam crigler
That's still pretty heavy.
tim pool
Yeah, he is.
Yeah, he's obese.
His doctor said like... Oh, really?
Yeah, I think he's on like blood medicine or something.
lydia smith
Heart medicine.
tim pool
Heart medicine.
I heard he's on uppers, too.
Is that true?
lydia smith
Uppers?
tim pool
Yeah.
lydia smith
I don't know.
tim pool
Yeah, he takes like some kind of stimulant.
lydia smith
I don't think he takes any stimulants.
I think that he only takes like a statin.
He's just high energy.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
lydia smith
He is high energy.
tim pool
No, I don't know.
I heard that, though.
I heard that.
I'm not saying it's true, but I did heard that he takes like some kind of like upper of some sort.
lydia smith
Caffeine.
Pepsi?
tim pool
No, no.
Look it up.
Google it.
lydia smith
I'm looking now.
tim pool
It could just be another smear.
And this is one of the other big problems.
Like, if you came out right now and told me that Donald Trump shot a guy on Fifth Avenue, I'd be like, I don't believe you.
Because the press is always lying.
I'd be like, you know, so when he did that whole injecting bleach thing, I saw it and I was like, whoa.
And then I immediately did a segment where I was like, yeah, it was a stupid thing to say.
And then I did some more digging and I was like, oh, I mean, it kind of was, but it actually is being overblown in a lot of different ways.
And then a bunch of people said to me, like, I can't believe you fell for this.
And I was like, you're right.
How did I fall for this?
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
How did I, of all people, fall for this?
adam crigler
You, of all people, Tim.
tim pool
Seriously.
They're lying all the time.
I know they're lying all the time.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
I don't mean literally all the time.
I know now you're gonna find some, like, weird activist grouping, like, Tim Poolf is a conspiracy theorist, thinks the media only lies ever.
No, I use mainstream sources all the time.
I have to fact-check them constantly, because it's kind of like, in mainstream media, you have a bunch of journalists that are the equivalent of landmines.
Out of the hundred journalists they have, how many of them are activists secretly working to push a political agenda?
A lot.
Not most, though.
I wouldn't bet most, because what a lot of people don't realize is that a lot of the columnists for, like, the New York Times, who write these things, don't actually work there.
It's like they have a column where they have a contract to write once a month or something.
A lot of the journalists write really boring things you never read.
Because it'll be like a sentence where it'll be like, you know, today the stocks rebounded, blah, blah, blah.
In fact, they're using a lot of robots to do that.
So there are a lot of regular journalists, you'll never hear their names.
But most of the people we see when we're talking about journalists are like Twitter activists.
And so we see this hyper-concentration.
And so then when I'm navigating the news, it's like walking in a minefield.
Like, I'll step on a mine, and I'll go, aha!
And then I'll have to crouch down, and there's the activist journalist, and diffuse it.
And then you walk, and like, for the most part, you walk through this field, there's real news all over the place.
But then those landmines are there.
And so the average person reads fake news... It's blown away.
Yeah, like the Daily News in New York wrote, calls to poison control spike after Donald Trump says to ingest bleach or whatever.
Fake news.
Totally, totally fake.
It's a false correlation.
The spike in phone calls was happening months before Trump ever said anything.
adam crigler
Of course.
tim pool
It was because people were buying disinfectant in general.
lydia smith
They're having it around more, yeah.
tim pool
Yeah, so then they do this.
So I could write something like, you know, Tim Poole's house burns down after Adam orders spicy wings from a vegan restaurant.
lydia smith
Super spicy.
tim pool
And then people, the goal is to make them assume you had something to do with my house burning down.
When in reality, it's like those are two totally separate events.
adam crigler
How did they know?
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Or if I said something like, you know, Tim Poole's house burns down after Ian starts a bonfire.
Then you assume the bonfire did it, but I never said that.
I said it was after.
adam crigler
Now I really want wings.
Is that weird?
tim pool
Spicy vegan wings?
Made of wheat gluten?
adam crigler
Actually, random side note, the best wings I've ever had that are vegan are here in Philadelphia.
lydia smith
Oh, nice!
adam crigler
Yep, Blackbird Pizza.
lydia smith
Moved to the right place.
adam crigler
Amazing.
Amazing.
tim pool
And there is big news.
Demand for vegan meat is on the rise.
lydia smith
Yes, it is.
adam crigler
Cool.
That's good.
tim pool
It just means once the meat shortage hits, the joke we made about them ignoring the vegan aisle, not true.
Now they're coming for your food.
It's like, I'll take fake meat over no meat.
adam crigler
I don't necessarily use vegan meat in all my meals.
I could easily not have it.
It's a luxury, really.
tim pool
It's not about that.
I'm saying you're going to have to box somebody out for those Beyond Burgers.
I think I'm gonna get in trouble YouTube's gonna demonetize us cuz I mocked punched I swear to God seriously yeah yeah I got we got we got flagged on one video and it was like real-life depictions of violence or whatever like the only thing in the video is me going like haha like fake swinging punches For the record, he was fake punching me, and I could take a punch, so.
I was fake kneading bread, actually.
I'm just actually, you know, trying to get that bread, you know.
lydia smith
Get that bread.
tim pool
It really worked.
You're doing a sourdough.
Everybody locked down right now is making sourdough.
unidentified
That's right.
lydia smith
That is correct.
tim pool
So, you know, we actually do have, like, other stories, but I guess ranting about Joe Biden for 45 minutes was worth it.
It was super fun.
So how about we take Super Chats?
Yeah, let's do that.
So let's see what we got here.
adam crigler
What up, everybody?
What up?
tim pool
If you are just joining in the Super Chats or in the show and you want to have your comment read, I will do my best to read them.
No guarantees, unfortunately.
I'm sorry.
But you can jump in the Super Chat.
Make sure you follow us.
There's me at Timcast.
And you got Adam over there.
adam crigler
I'm down there somewhere.
tim pool
Down there.
lydia smith
There we go.
adam crigler
That's on YouTube, Instagram, and Twitter.
Go ahead and hit me up.
tim pool
And you can send Adam ideas for stories because we usually do use them.
adam crigler
And for all the people in chat right now talking about vegan wings, like, is vegan wings a thing?
Oh, it's very much a thing.
lydia smith
Of course it is.
adam crigler
You've tried them.
tim pool
Yeah, they're good.
adam crigler
They're delicious.
lydia smith
They're good.
adam crigler
And also, I mean, I wasn't always vegan.
I really loved wings in general.
I love wings, actually.
They're amazing.
tim pool
The ones you got are crispy on the outside, tender on the inside.
adam crigler
Exactly.
Just like wings.
tim pool
Yeah, but it would be like a dark meat wing.
I like it better.
Of course, I enjoy having my regular chicken, but they were good.
Well, let's see what the viewers have to say about all of our shenanigans.
adam crigler
What's up, everybody?
tim pool
Ross Davidson says, read up on the accuracy of antibody tests.
The false positive rates for many are incredibly high.
People have been saying it in chat a little bit, Plandemic.
be very wrong. Oh, interesting. Keith says, just wanted to get this to you as early as
possible in case the stream gets canned. But you should look into Plandemic on Vimeo. YouTube
and Facebook are censoring it hard. It came out today. I heard about it. It's about Fauci,
adam crigler
I think. People have been saying it in chat a little bit, Plandemic. Yeah, it's about
like Fauci and patents or something. Yeah, like, I guess it's like he's like part owner
of some company that's supposed to make the vaccine.
Hmm.
tim pool
Unsurprising.
adam crigler
That's his reasoning.
tim pool
It's a plot for V for Vendetta.
adam crigler
Basically, yeah.
lydia smith
We'll have to look into it.
adam crigler
The main doctor in charge then becomes, like, isn't that guy become some... No, no, no, the military guy.
tim pool
They all get, like, high-ranking jobs.
He becomes the news guy.
The voice of England.
adam crigler
The voice of England, right.
tim pool
Keith, thanks for the additional super chat.
Enlightened Worm says, Thank you so much for everything you do, Tim.
My family prepared early because of your promos.
I ordered it in early March and it will be here tomorrow.
Also, my last name is Pool.
Right on.
Glad to see that you guys are getting some food.
And look, man, what I always say about the emergency food, we just got it in the closet.
It's like two bins in the closet and we don't even want to think about it.
And we have beans and rice, among other things.
adam crigler
And half of them are actually vegan.
tim pool
The emergency stuff?
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
But not even intentionally, it's just like nice and... Yeah, I know.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
adam crigler
But it's cool.
It's good to know.
tim pool
So for all your vegan friends, let's see, where are we at?
Robert, thanks for the super chat, says, really appreciate your hard work.
Matt Shear says, listening to your podcast every day during work, keep up the good work.
We will.
Try.
YouTube might get rid of us.
You never know.
Oh, so that being said, if you, if, you know, there is a real concern about that, share the video, share the podcast if you really do like it, because Yes, I'm gonna go ahead and like this video right now.
Boom!
You know that CNN pays millions of dollars to be in airports?
adam crigler
I knew that, yeah.
tim pool
Yeah, we don't have millions of dollars to be in airports, but man, if I could, I would.
Think about how awesome that would be to go in an airport and CNN's just off, and it's just us talking about how bad CNN is.
unidentified
That would be so much fun!
adam crigler
That would be fun.
lydia smith
People would enjoy that, I think.
tim pool
We don't have the millions they do to actually make that happen, but... Yet.
But if you share the video... Yet.
Like, you know.
I mean, yeah, great.
It'd be awesome if we could compete and rival these big agencies.
You know, we'll see how things play out.
But instead of big marketing budgets where we buy billboards, we just rely on word of mouth.
lydia smith
Yeah, we need you guys.
tim pool
The best way we can do it.
Mexico City Man in Cheese says NY is forcing medical volunteers that came from out of state to pay New York income tax even on income from their home state.
Brutal.
New York City is one of the only cities with an income tax.
The tax rate if you live in New York City is insane.
Why would anyone want to live there?
Like, I get it if you're a billionaire and you're like, I don't care if I give a hundred million dollars to the city because I have billions.
Fine.
But if you're making like 60, 70 a year, you're giving so much of your money away.
It's insane.
unidentified
Yeah.
adam crigler
I'm glad I don't live there anymore.
tim pool
Yeah, man.
It's one of the reasons I wanted to leave.
I'm like, what does this make no sense?
I mean, even New Jersey is bad.
Freedom Autopsy Report says, will you call out the double standard with mosques being open versus churches being closed?
This could be potentially anecdotal, and so that's why I haven't really got into it, but there have been, like, there were tweets highlighted from Bill de Blasio where he was like, we're gonna be giving food to all these mosques in these trying times.
And then him turning around and being like, and we're gonna hunt you down, synagogues.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Chase down your hearses and your funerals.
So definite double standard, it would seem.
But I'd have to do more research before I make any accusations.
Michael, thanks for the super chat.
Justin O'Toole says, thoughts on killing of Ahmed Arbery?
Did you watch the video about Ahmed Arbery?
adam crigler
No, I don't know it.
unidentified
Oh, man.
adam crigler
Wait, is this The Runner?
unidentified
Yeah.
adam crigler
Is this that thing about the... Oh, man, what is this?
Listen, man, I haven't read a lot about it, but I saw it just before we started the show, and I was like, what?
Is this real?
tim pool
And you'd think people would have learned their lesson with Covington.
adam crigler
Wow.
It's real?
This actually happened?
Like, what is wrong with these people?
Two dudes got and shot this guy?
tim pool
That's not what the video shows.
adam crigler
Oh, I haven't seen the video.
tim pool
The video I watched, and the only thing I know, is that there's a man jogging down the street, there's a white pickup truck stopped at an intersection, the man jogs around the pickup truck, gets into a fight with the guy in front, and then he gets shot and killed.
He's fighting over a gun with some guy and punches him in the face and then gets shot and killed.
I'm not saying he was guilty, innocent, nothing.
I'm telling you literally what the video shows you.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
I already know people are gonna be screaming that I'm bigoted and racist because I didn't push their line where they said he was hunted down and killed in cold blood.
adam crigler
Oh, is that what they're saying?
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
I think Joe Biden called it cold-blooded murder.
And I'm like, I don't know, when there's someone boxing you and trying to take your shotgun from you, it's literally not cold-blooded murder.
adam crigler
Yeah.
lydia smith
He's not hunting someone down.
tim pool
I don't know what happened.
All I know is I watched a video, you see there's a car driving and there's a man jogging in the street, white pickup truck, he goes around the right side, comes around the front, and then he's fighting with one guy.
There's a guy standing in the back of the pickup truck, and then the two guys, Ahmad or whatever his name is?
Yeah, Ahmad.
Ahmad.
They fight, Ahmad punches the dude, you hear the guy in the back of the pickup truck fires a shot, and then Ahmad, like, breaks away, walks, and then falls down.
So they're saying that, uh, apparently these people in the truck were like chasing after him or something.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
I didn't see that in the video.
In the video, they're stopped.
Then they said, well, he, they flanked him and stopped at the intersection.
And I'm like, again, I don't have any of that in video.
So I'm not going to insult or accuse anybody of committing a crime.
I don't know what happened.
And I'm not gonna be biased and say, oh, it's racist or whatever.
adam crigler
Yeah, or did they know each other?
Was there some previous history that could have happened beforehand?
tim pool
Technically, the official story is that these two guys in the car were looking for a burglar.
That somebody had been burglarized the night before.
And so they got in their trucks, and they're driving around.
They see this guy running.
They say, stop, we want to talk to you.
The guy somehow gets into a fight with a dude in the front, and then he gets shot and killed.
Of course, they're claiming it was cold-blood murder, and I've seen progressive activists argue that they got in their pickup truck, drove around, and hunted him down and just killed him in cold blood.
And I'm like, that is not in any of this video footage.
adam crigler
But the video, he runs up to the truck?
unidentified
Yep.
adam crigler
So that's totally different.
He could have turned around and run the other way.
tim pool
So this is what I don't understand.
In the video, he's running towards the truck.
unidentified
Why?
tim pool
He could have just turned around and run away.
He wasn't being hunted.
adam crigler
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't know anything about it.
All I saw was a picture and it was not what you're describing to me, the picture that I saw.
The picture I saw was from behind a pickup truck and it showed a guy standing, like getting out of his truck.
And then ahead of the truck, there's this man falling over.
That's the picture I saw.
And it looks like, you know, they're behind him, and he's like out in front of the car, like they would have shot him at a distance ahead of them.
tim pool
So, here's the pickup truck, the two guys are fighting, then Ahmed breaks away like this, and then collapses.
And the guy's standing here, and the guy's standing in the back.
lydia smith
So they took that picture after the video goes down.
Cause Ahmad looks like he runs up from behind the truck.
They get into it by the driver's side door.
There are two shots fired.
You can't see, you can hear it.
And then he staggers away and falls.
And then the driver ostensibly returns to the truck.
tim pool
He also punched the guy in the face with a shotgun.
adam crigler
I don't know.
tim pool
So I don't know what happened.
adam crigler
I don't know anything about it.
tim pool
Naturally, the progressives don't care about stopping collecting facts.
You're gonna see a bunch of progressive activists arguing that, you know, it's racism, it's cold-blooded murder, it's, you know, this is Trump's America, things like this.
And you'll probably see some more elements of the ultra-traditionalist right and racists saying things like, nah, they were patrolling the neighborhood, they were doing the right thing.
And then you'll probably find This is unfortunate, but it's true.
Most liberals don't know, don't care, and won't listen to it.
They'll never know about it.
adam crigler
They're passive.
tim pool
This is what we see in the polling, the exhausted majority.
They are not actively interacting with this.
Then you'll get traditional conservatives asking questions and trying to determine who was at fault, what happened, why it happened.
adam crigler
That sounds like me right now.
Am I conservative?
tim pool
No, you're just a liberal who's active.
That's the point I'm saying.
If liberals were paying attention, they'd be asking the same questions.
Like you and I. That's true.
adam crigler
Being on the show is forcing me to pay attention.
I'm like, I have to know.
tim pool
There are going to be a bunch of people who are going to, like, I remember having, I was in an Uber ride.
I can't remember exactly where this was, but my Uber driver was like super racist, white Southern.
adam crigler
Oh, really?
tim pool
Yeah.
And I started getting really mad.
And I think he realized, like, he was, he was just saying racist stuff.
Cause we were talking a little bit about politics.
Cause we just, you know, we were just chatting and I asked him what he thought about politics, you know, who you vote for.
And he said he voted for Trump.
And then he started saying, gradually started saying more and more racist things.
And I was disagreeing with him, and I was like, no, no, not like that, no, that's not true, man, dude.
And then he started saying, like, aggressively stupid racist things.
I don't know, I don't remember exactly, but he was just really, like, very anti-black, racist guy.
And I started getting, you know, triggered a little bit.
And then he shut up.
Like, these people exist.
They're a real thing.
But they're a caricature, you know?
It's like, I'm not going to assume every single conservative or Trump supporter does that.
And that's what you'll get from a lot of these progressive activists.
And that's dangerous.
But that's because they are the same thing.
You know what I mean?
They're the fringe element of the left.
And because regular liberals have stopped paying attention and engaging, they've taken over.
adam crigler
That makes sense.
tim pool
I don't know if I told you this.
I was hanging out with a friend of mine who is a big Bernie supporter.
And she was asking me about, you know, what's going on and saying like, haven't you become more conservative and all that?
And I'm like, no.
I was like, uh, maybe a little bit on some things for sure.
I've actually become more progressive on some other things.
Okay.
And she was like, yeah, but you make a lot of content that's like, the Democrats are bad and stuff.
And I was like, have you watched it?
Like some of it.
And I'm like, did you disagree?
Well, I think the one I watched, I thought you were right.
And I'm like, are my videos wrong?
No.
You're right.
I think they've gone nuts.
And so we were talking, and I asked her questions, like, about affirmative action, I asked about social justice, about, you know, all this weird culture war stuff, about impeachment and scandals, and she was in agreement with me on everything.
And then I'm like, if you're gonna agree with me on all this stuff, and, like, we have similar policy positions when it comes to, like, economics and social justice issues, we're not authoritarian, why would you, like, you make the assumption that my criticism of these groups makes me a conservative, And I was like, but you completely agree with me.
So, you know, that's not true.
And she agreed.
And I said, the reason you are thinking this is because I was like, the reason all of this stuff is happening.
And the reason I'm pointing the finger at what they're doing is because you won't stand up.
And I said, you voted for Bernie Sanders.
If you had paid attention over the past several years, you'd be saying the exact same thing as me, because we agree with each other.
And she was like, yeah.
That's what I found, man.
Almost all of my liberal friends who are big for Bernie have no idea what's going on.
adam crigler
Yep.
I found that, too, within my group of people that are Bernie supporters.
Not everybody does, though.
tim pool
They'll passively hear something about Trump, and just like, there it is.
And then you'll talk to them, and you'll be like, actually, here's the source, and they'll go, oh, I didn't know that.
But when you go to that voting booth, they just put the D in the box.
unidentified
Yep.
tim pool
That's what they're hoping for.
Yeah.
Well, let's read more Super Chats.
adam crigler
Before we do, I just want to say it's hilarious, the count.
The count.
You guys in chat, you guys are doing a count number.
Oh, 97, I believe it is now.
And it is hilarious.
It's kind of a drinking game.
Some people are drinking to it.
unidentified
This is dangerous.
adam crigler
And it's so funny.
lydia smith
I can't believe you guys are- What are they counting?
tim pool
Wait, wait, no, no, don't say it because then I'll start doing it more.
adam crigler
No, I'm not gonna.
Maybe I shouldn't say it.
But you guys in chat, you know what I'm talking about.
unidentified
98.
adam crigler
Okay.
Alright.
Please continue.
tim pool
Beanie count?
adam crigler
I love the chat.
You guys are fantastic.
Oh man, I love the people that show up to hang out with us.
lydia smith
No, that's a shirt count.
tim pool
Beanie count 2.
Audio off.
Now I'm just gonna read the chat.
unidentified
No, don't do it.
adam crigler
No, no, no.
You want me to just tell you?
What? 99.
What?
It's every time you fix your shirt.
tim pool
Oh, yeah, totally.
adam crigler
Boom!
unidentified
100!
adam crigler
It's the 100th.
There it is.
Everyone says drinking in chat.
This is great.
You guys are fantastic.
Anyway, sorry to sidetrack us.
Go read the super chat.
tim pool
You know, they haven't been counting.
adam crigler
Have you?
Oh man, see now people are going to miss it.
Add another one.
tim pool
They don't pay attention.
There's a couple other things too.
adam crigler
I wonder what the beanie thing is.
The beanie count.
tim pool
You know what's really funny though?
adam crigler
Do you adjust the beanie?
I don't remember ever saying that.
No, no, no.
tim pool
So I do this with my glasses.
And there was a period where I wore them straight for like six months.
But then, that was over the winter.
And then I start, I wear my contacts when I skate.
So if I'm wearing glasses, you can usually tell I didn't skate.
adam crigler
Yeah, that's a good point.
I like wearing contacts when I skate.
tim pool
I can't fall off.
Or it's just the depth is different.
But so, I was recording, I put on my contacts in the morning, and then I was recording, and I said something, and I went like this, and grabbed nothing.
adam crigler
And I was like... I've done that.
tim pool
Yep.
adam crigler
Well, pretty much whenever I wear contacts, I do that because I never, ever wear contacts.
Ever.
I'm like... I think I'm just lazy.
I'm just like, glasses on, glasses off, done.
It's easy.
tim pool
Alright, let's read some.
Brandon says, can someone make a cell phone that has a physical switch for the GPS, Wi-Fi, microphone, camera, etc.?
I don't trust Big Tech or the government anymore.
I mean, I've never trusted them.
You trust them within a reason, I suppose.
Chris White says, the Canadian government is so dumb they banned websites.
If you can't tell the difference between AR-15, Cheddar Box, versus AR, you shouldn't make gun laws.
Didn't they also ban Airsoft rifles?
lydia smith
I think so.
They banned every kind of fake guns, too.
tim pool
Yeah, they didn't know what they were banning.
They're like, this thing looks bad.
Get rid of it.
What does it do?
It fires plastic beads at people.
unidentified
Well, you know what?
tim pool
Can't have that.
We're scared.
Oh, I don't know.
But I will tell you the story about the beanie.
adam crigler
Wait, wait, wait.
I can answer this real quick.
Probably his because it has way more experience than mine.
tim pool
Well, this is a new one.
This is really funny.
adam crigler
Oh, that's a new one?
Then mine was.
tim pool
I went on Rogan, someone commented, like, I can't believe he wore the exact same beanie as last time.
And I'm like, different colors, dude.
lydia smith
They're literally opposite.
tim pool
Like, it's inverted.
So the actual story is, first, skateboarding, you don't wear sweatbands, man.
Like, do you ever see someone skateboarding without a headband?
adam crigler
I totally am that guy.
Headbands?
tim pool
You wear headbands?
adam crigler
For sure.
I have to wear something.
Because I have long hair, so I have to either have my hair up, but then wearing a beanie, it's too hot for me.
With long hair, you know?
tim pool
The first thing is skater style.
Skateboarders wear overshirts and beanies even in the dead of summer.
Go to Lower East Side Skate Park, and I saw a dude wearing a wool sweater and a beanie, just soaking wet skating, and it was 90-something degrees, and I'm like, that's too much for me!
So the first thing is, I grew up in Chicago, so the style was very much winterized for the most part, so beanies made sense.
But I also have a ton of videos, photos, wearing baseball caps.
The main reason to wear it is it wicks the sweat away from your face while you're skating.
But we were just skating the other day, and my beanie filled with sweat.
adam crigler
I saw that.
tim pool
So when I was on the mini ramp, I'd go up and it would just go all over my face and I had to wring it out.
adam crigler
Not only that, it would just spray out.
lydia smith
Oh my gosh, I miss this.
unidentified
What the heck?
tim pool
You can't skate.
adam crigler
Are you really bummed?
lydia smith
Nope, nope, I'm not.
adam crigler
I'm a little grossed out.
It was pretty bad.
lydia smith
That's amazing.
tim pool
It's really hard to skate when you've got sweat pouring all over your face.
adam crigler
That's true.
tim pool
So me and my friends, we always wear hats.
And it's like, not everybody wears hats.
But then there was a moment because of Occupy Wall Street where I got a bunch of press and I had this beanie
that I was told by a very famous celebrity marketing guy, don't take it off.
adam crigler
Don't take the beanie off.
tim pool
Yeah, because I ended up doing some magazine things and he ended up seeing them.
He was like, this dude's chilling in Mexico at the beach and he's hanging out with celebrities and stuff.
And he reads this magazine and he was like, this is really cool and he hits me up.
And then I had a meeting with him and he was like, bro, bro, this is the thing.
It's like street journalism, you know?
You're like this cool dude, this skateboarder, punk rock kind of thing.
Like, that's your thing.
And I was like, alright, cool.
Like, hey man, I don't want to say who this guy is or anything.
lydia smith
It's your persona now.
tim pool
High profile.
But he was basically like marketing, branding, this is what you do, this is how you do it, this is why you should do it.
adam crigler
That reminds me.
By the way, I just got an email from The Beanie Company.
They're back in business!
lydia smith
Yes!
adam crigler
So beanies are coming soon.
tim pool
But he was right.
He was completely right.
So I did a photo shoot for Spin Magazine, and I was wearing a beanie.
It was a green one.
And they told me to take it off, and I said no.
And they were like, the woman said to me, the only person who ever got to wear a beanie in my shoot is The Edge, and you are not The Edge.
And so I was like, all right, thank you.
And I grabbed my backpack and I was like, all right, let's go.
And she's like, wait, wait, wait, wait, stop, stop, stop.
Where are the beanies?
And then I went and sat down because she couldn't.
adam crigler
And you know what?
Call me The Edge now.
No, not interested.
No, just kidding.
tim pool
But think about all the people who want to buy beanies, the beanie shirt.
It's iconic branding.
adam crigler
You guys want to buy a beanie?
Would you buy a beanie?
If I made that beanie available to you, would you buy it?
tim pool
This is different from the last one.
adam crigler
I know, but it's got to be something like it.
tim pool
If we make our own, we'll make similar ones and we'll make a ton of them.
adam crigler
We'll have to talk about it.
tim pool
But you can click the link in the description below and get a t-shirt with a beanie on it.
That's the thing, like, it became something.
And the more people bring it up, and the more it becomes something, the more it entrenches exactly what the beanie is supposed to be doing.
Not only that, I can walk around my neighborhood in shorts and a t-shirt, and like, nobody knows who I am.
lydia smith
That's great.
tim pool
But if I go out wearing, if I wear this clothes, like, this is the point.
People don't get it.
Like when I mentioned, I mentioned before that you take the beanie off and people can't recognize me.
And people started saying like, haha, BS, not true.
It's true.
It's literally true.
adam crigler
Well, I recognize you.
tim pool
Without it?
Yeah, but you've known me for years and like.
adam crigler
All right, I've got an advantage.
tim pool
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like regular people wouldn't, you know.
All right, let's read some more Super Chats because we are, we are really, we're really chatting it up.
lydia smith
For sure.
tim pool
Todd says, any good or bad news on the food supply?
Well, I guess the good news is, um, the companies that make plant-based meats are doing really, really well.
And I think they're ramping things up, which means the worst it's, it's good news.
Look, if you don't like it, that's too bad, but people are preferring this over nothing.
So there will be something, even if we don't get meat.
But, uh, and another good news is Trump is making these plants stay open.
So I guess it's good news.
I guess it's, that's, you know, it's better.
Although he's certainly getting attacked for doing it.
Let's see. Science says, have you heard about China calling Australia the gum on the bottom
of China's shoe because we are backing the US wanting an investigation into COVID?
China getting spicy. I haven't heard that. I did not hear that. That's crazy.
Isaac says Green River killer was almost released in Washington state.
Four to five for no kept him in.
My state is coming close to going completely insane.
In Washington?
Close to insane?
lydia smith
Yeah, I'm sorry.
tim pool
Nah, man.
Dude, I lived in Seattle briefly.
I'm sorry, man.
Your state's nuts.
Well, Oregon is worse.
Chuck Morris says, a face for radio and a voice for YouTube.
Hate you.
Mark says, love watching from Melbourne, Australia.
If it's against YouTube's guidelines to not go against the World Health Organization, surely fat-acceptance videos should be banned too?
Yes.
Let's all advocate for getting those videos banned, huh?
I'm kidding, by the way.
Annoyed Moderate says, I appreciate you ranting my thoughts.
If you and others like you get banned, I'll seriously be worried.
Because of people who push fake news, it's hard to believe anything they put out, even if it's real.
100%.
Graph Von Tyrol says, Grenell had such a great power move against Schiff.
There is no way the latter will weasel his way out of this one, and stalling redacting information will do no good.
Yeah, so Schiff two years ago was like, we must release all the witness testimony and transcripts from Russia!
And now he's like, no, stop, don't.
And they're gonna do it and it's gonna make them look bad.
Connor says, I love the Beanie Brigade, but I saw that Family Guy episode where someone lifted Meg's hat and there was some strange life form coming out of the top of her head and I have to wonder.
Well, I know I just told you that story.
adam crigler
They called it.
tim pool
For the sake of just being transparent and honest, because I did rag on fake news, it's the brain slug that controls my mind, is protected, shielded.
lydia smith
Thank you for your honesty.
adam crigler
The real reason you couldn't take it off for the photo shoot.
tim pool
Yeah, yep.
They would learn the secret.
The aliens are already here, man.
Kadj says, German farmers are essentially enslaving Romanian workers by stealing their passports upon arrival, forcing them to pay to get them returned, and paying them less than one-tenth of what they were promised.
Yeah, a lot of countries have done this.
lydia smith
Didn't Qatar?
Dubai.
tim pool
Yeah, Qatar.
lydia smith
One of those two places.
That's exactly what they do.
tim pool
Christopher Summers says, thanks for all you do.
You're a great voice of reason in an unreasonable age.
Yeah, you know what, man?
Everything seems to be falling apart.
It's getting frustrating, huh?
Wolfspain says, if you, Adam, and Lydia were part of the Federation and Starship Troopers, what branch would you be in?
Mobile infantry, fleet, or intelligence?
Also, Lydia found the receipts tweet today hilarious.
I don't know about Starship Troopers.
adam crigler
But I'd imagine... It's been so long since I've seen that movie.
tim pool
I'd imagine if I was in any kind of force or conflict or service, it would be intelligence.
Journalism, news, is public intelligence.
People don't get this, and it's funny because I've had journalists get angry about it, but it's a fact.
The goal of a journalist is to gather intel, disseminate it to the people.
You then have companies that actually do private intelligence, but they're also news organizations.
Meaning that when they get legit stuff they don't want to publish, they sell to the highest bidder.
That's private intelligence.
Then you have government intelligence.
There's tons of private intel companies.
So technically, a news organization is a private intelligence agency serving the public.
But then there's groups like Stratfor, Strategic Forensics or something.
adam crigler
No, no, no.
tim pool
You can buy a subscription and get access to information that's not technically public.
Cool.
So they've got like sources and stuff.
A lot of creepy stuff in there.
Kojima Fire says, concerning the beef shortage here in the US, I hope y'all like venison.
I mean, I'll eat anything if it's food.
Like, I'll eat a bug.
I don't care.
Like, if I'm hungry, I'm not gonna pretend like I'm all high and mighty and be like, I can't eat that, that's gross.
I'll be like, dude.
Aren't, like, some bugs in, like, the same thing as crabs anyway?
Aren't crabs big bugs?
They're arthropods or whatever?
lydia smith
They are, yeah.
Crabs and lobsters.
tim pool
Really?
lydia smith
Yeah, lobsters are delicious.
tim pool
Have you ever been to France?
You ever go to France?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
You ever have snail?
adam crigler
I never ate snail.
tim pool
Delicious.
adam crigler
Never had it.
tim pool
Tastes kind of like clam, you know?
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Yeah, they put it on bread with garlic and oil.
It's funny because everyone's like, oh, they'll eat snails.
And I'm like, bro, I just sit down and say, put food in front of me and I'll eat it.
And they gave me a bunch of bugs or whatever snails are.
unidentified
And I'm like, yep.
tim pool
Food's food, man.
lydia smith
Not picky.
unidentified
Yikes, man.
tim pool
I've never heard of that.
It's true.
I apologize.
often don't speak German.
There have already been some who have escaped the farms.
Yikes, man.
adam crigler
I've never heard of that.
tim pool
Sai John Tower says, Tim, when talking about the accuracy of models, it is important to
consider if the model accounted for social distancing or not.
Completely agree.
If I missed that one, I apologize.
Arthur, thanks for becoming a member.
Lion in the North says, freedom!
Yes, much appreciated.
unidentified
I agree.
tim pool
Bloodthirster Barry.
Hey Tim, from Michigan here.
Cherry Health is a small non-profit that works with low-income patients.
The three major hospitals in Grand Rapids can test 2,000 a day and are not busy.
Why is this the place CBS chose to focus on?
Maybe they made a phone call and they said, would you be willing?
And the other hospital said, no, please, no, get out of here.
And then the smaller one was like, what do you need us to do?
I'm just asking questions.
Arthur P. says, MSM is total crap.
Agreed.
Joshua says, Shi Zhengli, lead researcher, the Batwoman of China, is now missing.
Reportedly seeking asylum at the U.S.
Embassy in France.
Comment on WeChat, the Kung Flu might have escaped Wuhan lab, unconfirmed asylum.
Sayez says, one eye open like CBS.
Oh yeah.
JDNX, my brother lives in San Diego, said he hasn't seen these food bank lines.
Could those be fake?
I don't know.
I mean, I've seen photos and videos of them.
I don't think they're fake, you know.
Why would they fake a food bank line?
adam crigler
Yeah, I don't know.
tim pool
Like, that's actually, the food bank lines are evidence to reopen things.
So if you're concerned they're faking it to make it seem worse, these things actually make it seem like the lockdown's been a problem.
unidentified
Yep.
tim pool
So, Subverse is now known as Scanner.
The name is being changed for a variety of reasons.
Just sounds cooler.
scnr.com. There is much to come.
Scanner. So Subverse is now known as Scanner.
The name is being changed for a variety of reasons. Just sounds cooler.
Cool, I like it.
cool I like it. Yeah, SCNR. It looks great. It does look really, really good and the videos
that have just been dropped are really awesome. Check it out. Go to the website. There might
be a link to the YouTube channel. Oh, I think the trailer's on the website. So do it. Go
to scnr.com and you can watch the trailer. Some people have said some things.
So this is Subverse.
This is the company I started with a couple of my friends.
They're out reporting.
I don't know if I'm supposed to announce who's working on the project yet, so I won't necessarily.
I want to make sure I get permission.
But let's just say when people find out who's working on this stuff, people are going to go, oh, it's going to be funny.
unidentified
Nice.
tim pool
It's gonna be great.
We got good stuff coming.
adam crigler
That's exciting.
tim pool
Yep, we're gonna take it back.
We're gonna bring back the good OG, like, on-the-ground reporting stuff that everybody loved back in the day.
unidentified
Nice.
tim pool
Somebody commented, they looked at it and they said, make Vice News great again.
And it's like, I worked there, right?
I was the first person on the team to launch Vice News, so I'm like, yes.
And then I left for a variety of reasons.
So the goal is to like, Subverse did, under the brand Subverse, the last video they did, it's really, really good.
You guys will probably really like it.
It's on the ground at, I believe it's Albany.
It's an anti-lockdown protest.
And guess what the reporters did?
adam crigler
What?
tim pool
They just interviewed the protesters and asked them what they were doing.
That sounds amazing.
So you end up hearing from the anti-lockdown protesters talking about how they take social distancing seriously, how they're sanitizing.
But here are the real reasons why they're concerned about this and what they think.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
And surprisingly, they're not conspiracy theorists.
They're like, we're really concerned, but you gotta consider the economics.
It sounds very much like what I've been saying, but you can actually hear it from them now, as opposed to when you go on Twitter and these journalists are like, they just want haircuts.
It's like, no, the Subverse crew actually went and found out what these people are actually trying to do.
So, check that out.
Scanner.
Some Grumpy Goat says, ever since I've been listening to this stream, as a bit of a bodybuilder, I've been trying to make my diet more green.
Love the show.
Right on.
lydia smith
Awesome.
adam crigler
Watch Game Changers.
Game Changers?
Yeah, it's about athletes.
I'm not talking to you.
tim pool
Watch the Joe Rogan thing.
adam crigler
Sure, yeah, yeah.
Watch all the things that you need to find, but it is really an interesting thing.
It's about athletes and veganism.
tim pool
Daniel Sotelo says, every time I see a post referencing QAnon, I think of the character Q from Star Trek The Next Generation and I can't take it seriously.
Q is awesome!
adam crigler
Yeah, he was a great character.
tim pool
Dude, such a good character.
One of my favorites.
adam crigler
Totally.
tim pool
Alexandra says, I don't know what to believe anymore.
Yeah, seriously.
Chuck Moore says, China just built a B-2.
They almost have Hades tech.
Yikes.
Daniel says most hospitals are turning away routine procedures and non-emergent care, so they are seeing a major decrease in income.
They may be boosting numbers for funding.
Yeah, makes sense.
John says just discovered your content a week ago.
Wanted to show support even with funds being tight right.
Right now, I believe you mean.
adam crigler
Thank you.
tim pool
Likely new lifelong fan.
Thanks for everything.
Appreciate it, man.
unidentified
Seriously.
adam crigler
Yeah, appreciate that.
tim pool
That's what I'm saying.
WikiLeaks Twitter claimed in 2019 that QAnon is actually a Pied Piper operation to find enemies
of the establishment makes them easier to discredit. That's what I'm saying. Listen,
within whatever the QAnon thing is, there's probably morsels of truth. And so there's
legitimate things that could be captured. But I'll be honest, I don't know a whole lot about QAnon.
Right. That's the point. But what happens is, let's say you discover some dude embezzling cash.
What they'll do is, They'll release a bunch of emails somehow, and the emails will talk about weird things.
And then when you come out and say, I've discovered it, they're embezzling money because they're secretly trying to hoard magnetic frogs to build a new race of Mars-dwelling frogmen, then you're just like, whoa.
But the truth was they're embezzling money.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
They put the fake news around it so that no one will believe you.
That's what you gotta watch out for.
That's why I always tell people when they're getting into conspiracy stuff, it's like,
start with the facts, ignore the speculation, ignore the predictions, take the hard evidence,
because if you can convince someone based on hard evidence, that's all you need to do.
Ignore the traps.
Matthew says, gotta love information warfare.
Yep.
The Owl Who Was says, can you get together with other YouTubers and stage a boycott?
If you all make the move together as the content providers, us, the content consumers, will follow just like Myspace.
It's just not possible.
Because every time someone emerges, they get destroyed.
They get their funding pulled, they get accused of being bigots, they get flooded by, you know, like, ultra-traditionalists and, like, weirdos and conspiracy stuff, and they get eviscerated and just blown out of the water.
Like, there are activists and media who want to make sure only powerful corporate entities can survive.
Don't ask me why.
Some of them work at Vice.
Arthur P. says, Don Lemon is a joke.
I appreciate it.
Can I actually pay you to have said that on this chat so people can see it?
Because I agree that much.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
All Metal Mike says, I'm fighting fake news by having a mannequin sit at my laptop and using a fake online account while drinking fake coffee.
Wonderful.
unidentified
Nice.
tim pool
Bobcast24Ida says, I'm an emergency doctor.
As per your convo about COVID toes yesterday, COVID causes a hypercoagul...coagulality?
How do you pronounce that?
adam crigler
Hypercoagula... I can't see it.
tim pool
Hypercoagulality.
lydia smith
Hypercoagulality?
tim pool
Lality?
unidentified
State?
lydia smith
Lality, yeah.
tim pool
Is a word I'm not familiar with.
lydia smith
That's a long word.
tim pool
This is causing microthrombal.
These small thrombal... thrombi?
lydia smith
Okay, thrombi are blood clots.
tim pool
Ah, okay.
Good thing we have a fancy doctor here.
lydia smith
Hypercoagulation.
tim pool
Okay.
Are leading to rashes, strokes, and PEDVT.
Yikes.
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
Steve Fernald says, talk about UFOs.
adam crigler
We have.
tim pool
They're out there.
Yeah, we have a segment.
adam crigler
There's one right there.
lydia smith
Japan.
adam crigler
Is it spinning?
It started moving right now.
tim pool
We did a segment on UFOs the other day.
You can check it out.
It's in the video section.
So seriously, go check it out.
Onixin says, gun and ammo registration is unconstitutional.
It will be used to take guns from those who don't buy back like it will in Canada when some won't.
Bobcat says, so when are you going to talk about the Vela incident or some other cool space stuff?
I don't know what that is.
adam crigler
Yes, people have actually suggested this to me, the Vela incident.
tim pool
One of the things we wanted to do is like reserve the last portion of the show for more like weird, wild mysteries, UFOs, aliens and stuff.
So I think we'll try and do that more consistently.
Bloody Bleeder says, damn Adam, how you let Tim dunk on you like that.
I don't remember specifically what that was in reference to, though.
adam crigler
Yeah, I don't remember.
I actually saw that.
tim pool
Oh, when I called you racist.
adam crigler
Oh, is that what it was?
tim pool
Maybe.
adam crigler
Yeah, I mean, I just, I'm not, so whatever.
tim pool
It was a joke.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
I was making the argument.
adam crigler
Maybe that's what it was.
lydia smith
Adam's too chill to be dunked on.
tim pool
That's true.
adam crigler
You can try to dunk on me.
Nice dunk.
Nice dunk.
I'm going to continue on.
tim pool
Voting for Trump does not make you racist.
The point is that that's the only argument they have because people are scared of being called racist.
So I think that's one of the things, too.
Like, I don't care what people call me.
They insult me.
They call me names.
I don't care.
And so that's one of the things.
I think if you have that, you're harder to sway.
So there are people who are like, maybe I should vote for Trump.
And they'll go, you're a racist.
And they'll go, No, no, no, no.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
No, you're right.
unidentified
You're right.
adam crigler
No, I won't vote for him.
tim pool
I don't want people to call me names.
adam crigler
Call me whatever you want.
tim pool
Yeah, seriously.
unidentified
Yeah, man.
adam crigler
I don't care.
tim pool
David Van Am, can you talk about the Canada gun ban last week?
We did briefly mention some of it.
I don't know a whole lot, but I know they banned, like, airsoft guns and other ridiculous nonsense.
And people are posting photos of, like, semi-auto rifles that are, like, not banned.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
That are better or worse in some capacity than, like, what they did ban, proving that the bans had nothing to do with anything other than cosmetics.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
That's what they do here, too.
They're like, that gun is scary.
We must ban it.
lydia smith
We must ban.
tim pool
So dumb.
Robert, thanks for the super chat.
Arthur says, Ted Nugent for president.
All right.
adam crigler
Random.
tim pool
Crimson Ghost says, best conspiracy theory yet.
Rather than a pig bat walking out of a Wuhan lab, our leaders are preparing humankind for the arrival of our alien overlords.
War of the Worlds, man.
adam crigler
Maybe.
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
That's it.
You know, we have another story that we didn't get to.
The military apparently put out, MAPS put out a memo saying that if you've ever had COVID, you can't enlist anymore.
adam crigler
I don't get that.
I don't know, man.
I can't believe that.
tim pool
What does that mean?
adam crigler
It doesn't make any sense.
tim pool
Coronavirus survivors banned from joining the military.
This is from today.
It just came out.
adam crigler
Let's talk about this.
Nah, I mean, we don't have that much time.
Let's talk about this tomorrow.
tim pool
Yeah.
Let's save this.
adam crigler
We'll talk about this tomorrow.
lydia smith
We'll put a pin in that.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Bobcast says, the COVID patients tend to have elevated dimmers, a marker of excessive clotting.
The dimers are running three-four-fold above normal in severe infection.
Higher dimers are associated with higher mortality.
Yikes, man.
I don't want to get this thing.
lydia smith
Sounds like a blood disorder.
tim pool
Yeah.
lydia smith
Makes sense.
tim pool
George Wood says, hey Tim, did you guys get my tweet about the Wuhan CDC video of interns collecting bats without wearing proper PPE?
I tweeted it to Adam too.
adam crigler
Yeah, I was looking at this.
It's basically a video that shows these people out in China going into these caves.
And I actually watched a little bit of it.
It was right before the show, so we didn't really have time to gather it.
I mean, they would spend days in these caves.
It wasn't like they were just going in and grabbing a bat.
They would go in and stay in these caves for days on end, capturing these bats and collecting samples off them, pulling ticks off them, because only, I guess, specific ticks are only found in these bats.
So that's another thing they're collecting.
tim pool
Gross!
adam crigler
And you can see some of them don't have masks on and they're down in these caves.
So it's like, it's pretty bad.
unidentified
Yeah.
lydia smith
That's not good.
tim pool
All right.
adam crigler
But I did see that.
Yeah, I did see that.
tim pool
Let's see where we at.
Arthur P says Nikki Haley for president.
Theodore McCarthy.
The swing voters who decided elections don't watch the mud wrestling.
They ignore partisan politics and vote on practical matters.
Hopefully.
Hopefully.
Ground Squirrel says, look up the Ahmed Arbery video.
We did.
We talked about it.
Joseph Alvarez says, dear Tim, did you hear about the COVID researcher who was murdered this morning?
Conspiracy to murder?
What is going on?
So we did talk about this the other night, the Pittsburgh researcher who was on the, there was about to be a breakthrough.
Turns out some dude tweeted last month.
He was like, well, this guy's about to find a cure for COVID.
adam crigler
No, no, no, no, no, no.
He said they found the cure.
This dude found the cure.
He says he found the cure for COVID and he submitted it to the FDA and is waiting to see what happens.
tim pool
How much you want to bet he died mysteriously?
adam crigler
That's what it is in the tweet.
They're saying like, look, watch, watch, he gets taken out now.
tim pool
Right, but it is just some random dude.
adam crigler
True.
tim pool
So, it's interesting.
It is true, but it's... I also point out, the thing about prophecy is that if you take, you know, what is it saying?
Like, you know, a million monkeys will write Shakespeare or something?
Yeah, so out of the hundreds of millions of people who use Twitter, one guy said, look at this, someone might die, and then everyone goes back to it like, whoa!
And it is kind of weird, it is.
adam crigler
Well, especially when, you know, Ian came in here and he was like, do you guys see about this Fauci thing that he has, like, he's set to gain a lot of money because his company is going to be making the vaccine.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
It's like, welcome to crony politics in America.
But if there was a cure and then that would, that whole plan, the whole plan would have just come unraveled then.
If, if.
I know this is all big ifs, but I mean, this is like, it's a pretty big if.
tim pool
Vash says, the news is a phony, a big fat fowdy.
That's a Family Guy reference.
adam crigler
Nice.
tim pool
RJ RJ says, butcher for a Kroger-owned store.
The shortage has some initial truth, yet is also part of self-fulfilling prophecy, making it more true as we go, already limiting how much a customer can buy.
Interesting.
Justin O'Toole says, sounded like you were talking about the plot of Avenue 5.
The entire bridge of the cruise ship are actors, and the captain, Hugh Laurie, is also fake.
adam crigler
Oh, cool.
tim pool
DC Pagan says, when are you going to cover the Libertarian Party candidates?
You already said that you favor neither the Democrats nor the Republicans.
Well, I'll look to the Libertarians, man.
You ever seen that meme with the fox in it?
adam crigler
No.
tim pool
Or maybe.
lydia smith
I don't think so.
tim pool
I don't exactly know what you're talking about.
Oh, man.
Let me see if I can find it, actually.
lydia smith
What is it?
I can kind of explain it.
You want the picture?
tim pool
Oh, I want the picture.
lydia smith
That's a great picture.
tim pool
It is one of the best memes ever.
lydia smith
The most accurate on point meme.
tim pool
No, no, that's not it.
adam crigler
Okay, I've seen that fox before.
It's like a dried up husk of a fox.
Yeah, I don't know.
lydia smith
I just saw it go by too.
I wish I had saved it.
adam crigler
Is that it right there?
tim pool
Here we go.
lydia smith
Okay, here.
tim pool
There it is.
lydia smith
Oh, snap.
tim pool
Libertarian ideas.
Look at that gorgeous thing.
Libertarian candidates.
Look at that scraggly disaster.
lydia smith
Oh, it's so true.
tim pool
Everyone knows this.
Even libertarians know this.
And one of the other memes I really love, you know the Willie meme from Simpsons?
adam crigler
I don't know.
tim pool
You know what I'm talking about?
Where Willy's like... Principal Skinner says to Willy, you sure do hate this group of people.
Or hate a lot of people.
And then he's like, that's true!
The Scottish hate this group and this group.
And then he goes, and especially the Scots!
Damn Scots!
They ruined Scotland!
So the meme is, damn Libertarians, they ruined Libertarianism.
There are some really bad Libertarian candidates.
But Justin Amash is running and I have very little respect for that guy.
adam crigler
Is he libertarian?
lydia smith
Is he considered an independent?
tim pool
Republican, turns independent, realizes now he's going to lose his job, so he goes to run as a libertarian.
You know what, dude?
I can't stand all these people.
You know what I mean?
Look, there have been some good libertarian candidates, but there have also been some really wacky ones, and there's a lot of things I can't really agree on.
There's an interesting conversation, because depending on, like there's different kinds of libertarians.
Do you believe in open borders or closed borders?
adam crigler
Are you asking me?
Yeah.
I think closed borders.
tim pool
A lot of libertarians are for open borders, arguing that we should let people just go
about and do their thing.
And there are some who believe in national sovereignty, but with libertarianism on the
inside.
adam crigler
I think that's more where I lean.
tim pool
There's a lot of conversations, like, you know, some have argued, should a person be
allowed to sell drugs to kids?
lydia smith
Yes, really.
tim pool
They argued that.
I think the answer is a resounding no.
lydia smith
Of course not.
tim pool
I think we have regulations for a reason.
I'm all about the mixed economy, man.
But I slightly left libertarian, but not all the way down.
Otherwise, you know, left libertarians are like, do whatever you want, man.
We're going to go smoke, you know, in the farm and eat some fresh wild apples.
lydia smith
That's what it boils down to.
tim pool
That's why I can't stand about the political compass when they argue that left libertarianism is Antifa.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
It's not.
Left libertarianism is like a vegan hippie on a farm being like, yo, I just found these fresh berries.
You want to share them?
And they both die of poisoning.
I'm kidding.
I'm exaggerating.
But it's like hippies on a farm.
They work together.
They share.
They're just like sitting there.
You know, hippies on a farm, sort of.
I mean, they're still doing work.
You know what I mean?
adam crigler
Yeah.
unidentified
All right.
tim pool
Let's see what we got here.
Arthur P. says, Trump was a huge contributor to the DNC.
lydia smith
Huge.
tim pool
Party says, a big beautiful bowl from sea to shining sea.
That's Donald Trump.
Eric says, who do you think would have an advantage in a civil war where there's physical fighting on the street?
Far-left Antifa types or conservatives?
Oh, conservatives, dude.
Have you seen the video of the Proud Boy boxing?
He knocks out the Antifa guy?
adam crigler
No.
tim pool
He goes for a swing and then he stops and then he winds up again.
adam crigler
Boom!
tim pool
And the guy just goes rigid and knocks down.
Look, man.
These Antifa types are scrawny, frail, like, twisted, twistedly educated into weird ideas.
And the conservatives are like farm boys.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
You know what I mean?
And they're, they're, they're like, like they're doing- They're trained with guns.
They're trained with guns, too.
Yeah.
So, yeah, nah.
When, when, when you see the Antifa clash with the Proud Boys, like, it's usually very lopsided, you know?
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
Very much so.
Let's see, MDNOS says, what has become of Emily Mollie?
SCNR.com.
You heard it here.
Go check it out.
She's doing that, and she is doing great.
Michael says, have any of you watched Designated Survivor?
It's about a cabinet member that becomes president after all of Congress and the president.
unidentified
Wow!
adam crigler
Yeah, I did watch it, actually.
It's Kiefer Sutherland.
tim pool
Yeah, is it good?
adam crigler
It's not bad, actually.
It's better than I thought it was going to be.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
So I don't say that all that often, but I have said it a lot in the past.
It's pretty funny.
It just means that humans are predictable, man.
also more proof that Tim is an alien.
So I don't say that all that often, but I have said it a lot in the past.
adam crigler
It's pretty funny.
tim pool
People do people stuff.
It just means that humans are predictable, man.
adam crigler
It makes me think of human music.
unidentified
Boop, boop, boop.

Party says, these people have the morality of anime villains.
Oh, yeah.
Realty Hijack says, dude, you need to hook up with Laowai and Serpensa.
They're experts on Chinese culture and both lived for over a decade.
They're both awesome.
Yes, we're locked down.
That's been the big, you know, roadblock.
So, you know, we've been talking about it for a while, but, you know, maybe once we are free again, free peoples.
adam crigler
Yeah, maybe.
tim pool
Seth Baldwin says, broke the damn, damn, damn.
adam crigler
The dim-dam.
tim pool
Yeah.
Arthur says polls can be corrupted, for sure.
Stuttering Chris says, why doesn't the gov just print money?
It's so dumb.
That's right!
Just keep printing it out and part in the streets.
lydia smith
That will be fine.
tim pool
Party says, I want to be the vanilla ice to Trump's dio-sama.
The Grizzly says, if the right can't participate in the electoral system, I think they could be forced into civil conflict.
Do you think there's anything that can pull the left back from their lurch toward the extreme end with their ideology?
I feel like it's kind of happening. It's kind of happening.
Because the people who are very much for Bernie need to find allies. And if they are at war with
the establishment left, and the populist right, then they are nothing. They have no political power,
they are gone. So now it's interestingly, I'm seeing a lot of this on Twitter, there
are some like progressives that I'm seeing like retweet and overlap and agree with some Trump
supporters and conservatives, not completely, I'm not acting like it's a big thing. But it's interesting
to see, now that Trump's base is completely against Biden for so many reasons. And because
the progressives also are against Biden, there's like natural allies forming.
For now.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend I guess.
NYBSFP says, it's Trump's today.
It's the next guy tomorrow.
Anyone who understands that loves Trump because at least he fights the BS.
Travis says Republicans have had to face scrutiny from the media due to bias for 40 plus years.
Now in the age of social media, Democrats are being held to the same standard.
So Republicans are more adept at this.
I think so in a lot of ways, for sure.
Noah, thanks for the super chat.
WhiteRat says, the Dems that believe Biden assaulted Tara Reid, but also vote for him anyway, have sold their souls to get Trump.

Appreciate it.

Sorry.

After a too long and awkward silence, Adam leaned in towards Tim, doing his best to hide his jealousy.
What happened in that van?
Tim could only sigh.
He had asked himself the same question several times.
It's complicated.
Let me add a line.
adam crigler
I love it.
tim pool
For what Adam didn't know, that Tim had already been replaced by the Xenors.
The van had been corrupted and abducted, and the alien slugs had taken over Tim's body and completely turned him.
Soon, Adam would be next.
lydia smith
Ooh, I like this story.

Titan says, although Bernie dropped out and didn't give up his delegates, could he re-enter the race with his delegates and be the frontrunner?
I don't necessarily think so, because I think it goes to an open convention and the delegates can vote for whoever they want.
I'm not entirely sure though.
Thanks for the super chat.
That's the best way.
That's a good way to describe it.
Matthew says sleepy Joe isn't a shipwreck.
Funny.
He's like a super long turd that refuses to flush even after getting the plunger involved.
That's the best way.
That's a good way to describe it.

Coyle says Trump is probably on modafinil or something similar.
I can tell you one Biden policy he's going to have Beto disarm everyone.

That's insane!
Trump never said anything like that!

Thomas Smith, thanks for the super chat.
He says, Tim, respect your opinion, but if you can't vote for either the R's or the D's, then you need to find a third party that you can vote for, even if they can't win.
That says more than not voting at all.
Perhaps.
We'll see.
Let's see.

You claimed it was to protect your identity.
I literally said that.
And my story has always been the same.
I met a guy.
adam crigler
It's true.
tim pool
So I had a feature in GQ magazine.
I met a guy and he told me it was powerful branding and to use it.
And then I said, it makes it harder for people to recognize me when I take it off.
It's specific branding to maintain a specific image.
That's why I wear the same clothes every single day.
I own other clothes.
lydia smith
That's pretty straightforward.
tim pool
Like when I went, when I posted on Instagram where I'm wearing different clothes.
I'm wearing a different beanie too.

For those that are interested, you will never find a video of me going back like 20 years without the beanie.
I have always skated with a beanie on.
Well, there are baseball caps.

I kid you not, yep.
When he does what they want, what the machine wants.
Matthew says, those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.
Benjamin Franklin, a quote that was true back then and is now, open up everything.
My favorite version is, those that would sacrifice liberty for a little bit of security deserve neither and will lose both.
Devon says, MEPS doesn't want soldiers that have had COVID due to the fact that they don't know how the long-term effect of the virus, and how the long-term effect of the virus, and it may cause people to be combat ineffective.
Hmm.
Pei Chenwu, video, oh you asked that already, yeah.
I'd be ripping him.
Tim, I just farted.
Want to discuss it?
You can super chat again.
lydia smith
Good luck with that.
tim pool
Yeah, super chat again.
lydia smith
I wish you well.
tim pool
Andrew, you start the conversation.
Andrew Crumbaw says, love your work, man.
Very much appreciated.
Cracklin says, Adam's so hot right now.
Has he ever had an orange mocha frappuccino?
adam crigler
No, it sounds gross.
tim pool
Yeah, I don't know.
adam crigler
That's a Zoolander reference.
tim pool
But people do like chocolate orange, you know what I mean?
unidentified
Ugh.
adam crigler
Orange chocolate's disgusting.
unidentified
What?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Fixie Clary.
adam crigler
Period.
tim pool
Wait, a pawpaw fruit?
Sounds like the song Bear Necessities from the Jungle Book.
Spartan says, what happens to the beanie during a heatwave?
They're actually skate beanies.
They're really thin.
And it depends, it really does.
They suck up all the sweat so I can skate.
Vaportrail says, just want to say the show format is awesome.
Excellent move.
But she should be on cam.
The lady is on cam.
adam crigler
She has a camera.
tim pool
Yeah.
Devo says, I'm just here to shout out Stixxhexenhammer666.
He's the bomb.
Stixxhexenhammer666 is a YouTube channel.
If you're not familiar, you should definitely check him out because he is pretty rad.
He's a good dude.
Are you familiar?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Yeah, he's a cool dude.
Solid.
He's a smart fella, man.
Ogre says, in a few years, we're all going to find out hand sanitizer is the cause of cancers.
I'm waiting for the COVID parties.
When I was a kid, someone got chicken pox.
We all had a sleepover at that kid's house.
People are doing that.
But hand sanitizer is just ethyl alcohol.
It's not... I mean, it maybe causes something, but it just evaporates.
Dane says, correction, nurse is weak.
Oh, interesting.
Andrew says, thoughts on bamboo skateboard decks.
I'm a big fan, but they don't seem to last that long.
They seem to get spongy real fast, right?
adam crigler
Yeah, well, I mean, I don't know about a full, like full bamboo decks that are like long boards are different than, I don't know if I've ever seen a full bamboo skate deck.
I know there's some arbor boards have a top sheet.
So it's only one sheet out of like nine or eight or I don't know how many layers they have.
tim pool
They're really, really good, and they seem to lose their rigidity really quickly.
adam crigler
Yeah, they're good if you're a sponsored skater, that you're breaking boards, you're a heavy, heavy skater.
tim pool
Well, you're not gonna break a bamboo board.
adam crigler
Yeah, you would.
No, man.
Not a full bamboo, but like a top sheet.
It splits in a different kind of a manner, though.
tim pool
I've had full bamboo boards.
I've broken a... Impossible to break.
adam crigler
A top sheet bamboo board.
tim pool
Me and my friends, so... Not a full board.
I had a bamboo deck and it was really, really good.
adam crigler
It was 100% bamboo.
unidentified
100%.
adam crigler
Yeah, I'd never skated one.
tim pool
And then we... So it lasted me like a couple weeks before it started getting, losing its rigidity and becoming springy.
adam crigler
Yeah, yeah.
tim pool
And so we were like, we gotta trash it.
We couldn't break it.
adam crigler
Really?
tim pool
We were like putting on an angle and like stomping it.
adam crigler
It just goes... But it did have... Did you notice that it has a better pop though?
tim pool
Definitely.
adam crigler
Yeah, yeah.
tim pool
For a little while.
adam crigler
I felt that.
Yeah, yeah.
At first, it goes faster, though.
tim pool
The board I'm riding now, it's for the most part only riding in the yard, where we have really smooth concrete, and it's lasting forever.
This is the longest I've had a board last me.
Because I'm not doing stairs or rails or anything, skating the mini ramp, it's remarkable.
It's a reel.
Reel and anti-hair are my favorite company, favorite shapes and everything.
But if I was riding on bamboo at this point, it'd probably be too soggy to skate.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
Yeah.
unidentified
Yup.
tim pool
But they're cool though.
I like their, they're very sustainable.
The Werski says, name, name it Beanie Sanders.
We should make a beanie.
Oh, let's make a beanie with white on the sides.
unidentified
Yes.
adam crigler
Kind of funny.
tim pool
And we'll call it Beanie Sanders.
adam crigler
That's pretty good.
tim pool
Yoann says, I would buy a Hawaiian print beanie.
We'll make it happen.
adam crigler
Alright, maybe.
tim pool
Mark G says, when is Adam going to do a cover of Country Roads?
adam crigler
I guess I have to talk to you about that.
Basically the reason I didn't do it is because of the copyright issues.
I didn't want to get our channel in trouble.
tim pool
I think we're allowed to do it.
I'm pretty sure we're allowed to do covers.
adam crigler
Well, I'm pretty sure we can do it because I guess the issue comes with making money off of it.
tim pool
The channel makes money.
adam crigler
Which is why I didn't do it.
tim pool
Play originals.
adam crigler
Which is what I did.
lydia smith
Perfect.
tim pool
Seth Baldwin says.
adam crigler
But hey, thanks for remembering.
Appreciate that.
tim pool
Do you think a skater beanie could help with sweating from using VR?
I don't know.
But yeah, that's one of the biggest problems with VR.
adam crigler
I found a bandana works.
tim pool
Bandana?
adam crigler
Yeah, yeah, like, you know, fold it in half and then do it here and tie it back, because then the VR still fits comfortably because it's really thin, but it also kind of catches the sweat.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah.
adam crigler
It's worth a shot.
tim pool
The opinionated one says, conspiracy doc called Plandemic going around on Facebook has associations with anti-vax movement.
Be aware it was also removed from YouTube.
Yeah, I'm very skeptical of a lot of stuff like this.
Let's see, Dax says, Shards of Tarkir in ESH?
What is that?
adam crigler
Or EDH?
EDH?
tim pool
Is that what you mean?
adam crigler
I don't know.
Shards of Tarkir?
Oh, is that like the next set?
tim pool
Shards or Tarkir in EDH.
adam crigler
Ah, okay.
Yeah, I don't know.
Shards of Alara?
Is that... I guess.
It's an old set.
I'm not really sure what the question is, but...
Both are good sets.
