What's up everybody? | |
| Welcome to the TimCast IRL podcast. | ||
| We're chillin'. | ||
| I'm hangin' out with some people. | ||
| You know, just hangin'. | ||
| Just hangin', man. | ||
| What's goin' on, everybody? | ||
| How you doin'? | ||
| We got- Heyo! | ||
| That's Adam. | ||
| You're supposed to say your name. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, yeah. | |
| Well, usually- Normally, you say it. | ||
| No, I leave it to you guys. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| You're like- Oh, that's true. | ||
| You're like, I know- Hangin' out with some peeps. | ||
| Adam Krigler, that's me. | ||
| How you doin'? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, look at that. | |
| Thanks for showin' up. | ||
| And then there's like- There's someone else, I think. | ||
| I can't remember her name. | ||
| There's someone else. | ||
| What's her name? | ||
| Sour Patch Lids. | ||
| That's my name. | ||
| I'm adopting it. | ||
| I'm rolling with it. | ||
| Yo. | ||
| Um, yeah. | ||
| So, uh, what's going on? | ||
| Yeah, what is going on? | ||
| It is a crazy day, man. | ||
| The news has been really, really nuts. | ||
| It feels the same. | ||
| You know, it's really weird because we've all been locked down for so much. | ||
| You know, for those that are listening, like, all three of us have been talking about this. | ||
| There's a whole lot of stories that are, like, not really stories. | ||
| They're just like fragments of stories. | ||
| And I think it's because we can't go anywhere. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| We can't do anything. | ||
| We're like, so you look at the front line, you know, the front page headline news, and it's like Donald Trump today yelled at a dog. | ||
| Oh, and it's like it's always something about what Trump is doing. | ||
| I think it's because politics is easy. | ||
| If we can't go out and go to the movies, how do we talk about movies? | ||
| Didn't they say something about it finally being over? | ||
| Like we're like they're lifting the restrictions. | ||
| We can go out. | ||
| I thought that was a thing, no? | ||
| Am I wrong? | ||
| No? | ||
| I heard you guys cheer from the other room, like, yay, we're free! | ||
| And I was like, oh, we're free, this is nice. | ||
| Well, not here in Jersey, but Wisconsin Supreme Court just basically shut down. | ||
| Wisconsin's like, yep, you're free, no one can tell you not to. | ||
| It was a close ruling, it was four to three, that they won't extend the lockdown. | ||
| Nice. | ||
| So I'm looking forward to it, because every day when we start pulling news and looking at stuff, it's like, oh man. | ||
| I can't wait! | ||
|
unidentified
|
8. I can't wait yesterday was brutal go do anything or do things again. Yeah. Go bowling exactly. Yesterday was | |
| brutal because. There it's it's every every southern there's days where it's just. There'll be | ||
| like 300 stories. That don't relate to each other that are microscopic that have played out. And that's | ||
| when you know it's like a really bad day for the news where desperately trying to squeeze something | ||
| out. | ||
| I try to do more like, you know, philosophical or predictive segments in that case. | ||
| But soon we'll be going to the movies again and we'll be telling you guys what we think of movies! | ||
| Oh man, I can't wait! | ||
| But this is what's crazy. | ||
| Remember those days? | ||
| Like when we did the Birds of Prey segment? | ||
| Man, that was fun. | ||
| But that was a big story that people were talking about on Twitter and now it's like we can't go out and do anything so there's no... | ||
| Like, it's just, it's just been, it's over, you know? | ||
| Yeah, it's true. | ||
| You know what's scary is, uh, apparently the mayor of L.A. | ||
| said that we're gonna be locked down forever. | ||
| L.A. | ||
|
unidentified
|
is. | |
| I kid you not, this guy's an idiot. | ||
| The population of L.A. | ||
| drops. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Right. | ||
| But this guy, he said, he was like, we're gonna, we're not gonna completely reopen until there's a cure. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| For a virus. | ||
| A cure. | ||
| For a virus. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Has this guy been through third grade biology? | |
| Right. | ||
| Let me show you a little picture, a little, you know, viral phage or whatever things, bacteriophage. | ||
| It's like, you can't, we have no cures for viruses. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| So he basically said, we're locking down indefinitely. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| He clarified, he was like, the health department lady official said, We're, um, it's going to be at least three more months till August. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And everybody went nuts on Twitter. | ||
| They were like, you know, dear Lord, help us. | ||
| And then he goes on TV. | ||
| He's like, no, no, no, no. | ||
| I got to clarify that. | ||
| We're going to be locked down. | ||
| Like we're not going to be completely open much longer than that. | ||
| It was like, you're not making things better. | ||
| So apparently this guy doesn't know what a virus is and doesn't know that we don't have cures for these things. | ||
| So that's freaky. | ||
| You know, it's weird because it's all these like, Blue states that are doing it. | ||
| And red states are opening up. | ||
| Yeah, and it sounds like they're just making decisions off things they hear instead of actual science. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Michigan's the worst. | ||
| Seems like it, yeah. | ||
| Because, like, Whitmer, the governor, said this is an executive order, not a suggestion or whatever, like, and people are, like, there's signs saying, like, obey. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| What is wrong with your state? | ||
| It's weird. | ||
| Every time I see her talk or see a picture of her, I'm like, oh, is this an SNL sketch? | ||
| No, oh, it's not. | ||
| Oh, it's actually her. | ||
| It is. | ||
| Right, right. | ||
| What does she look like? | ||
| She looks like someone from SNL. | ||
| Doesn't she? | ||
| I think she must. | ||
| Like she's not a real person. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep, yep. | |
| But there is, there is some, we got a bunch of stories. | ||
| We'll see what we get to, but the first one we really want to talk about is a 20 ton, 100 foot long Chinese rocket part. | ||
| Apparently it was flying over the US. | ||
| Over the US. | ||
| Almost hit New York. | ||
| We'll get to it, but before we get started, make sure y'all hit that like button. | ||
| Make sure you jump in the super chat, and we will do our best to read your comments, we get to them. | ||
| You can follow me at Timcast, and you can follow Adam over at AdamKrigler on Twitter, both of us Twitter and Instagram, but you can send Adam story suggestions on Twitter. | ||
| Yeah, please do. | ||
| And we use the story suggestions, we do. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So do that. | ||
| And then also, you know, share this video, because one of the segments we're gonna do today is YouTube admits That nobody likes watching CNN, but they're going to share them anyway. | ||
| And it's funny because the BuzzFeed people and like these lefty blogs are angry that people are uploading videos to YouTube and then sharing them on Facebook. | ||
| I kid you not. | ||
| They are now mad that YouTube hosts user videos and people can share the link. | ||
| I'm not exaggerating. | ||
| BuzzFeed's trying to get this shut down. | ||
| That's crazy. | ||
| They're pressuring YouTube to stop the ability of sharing URLs. | ||
| Like what does that even mean? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I'm like, they'll just go to Bitshoot, dude. | ||
| They'll go to Mines, just post a video. | ||
| These people are nuts, man. | ||
| They won't stop until... These people are drone authoritarian psychopaths. | ||
| Yeah, dude. | ||
| So let's do this. | ||
| Why don't we talk about a Chinese rocket piece screaming over the U.S.? | ||
| That's actually... I'm using... That's a quote from another article from Futurism. | ||
| But let's read the news. | ||
| So here's the story from Popular Mechanics. | ||
| Chunks of China's powerful rocket fall back to Earth, narrowly missing NYC. | ||
| It is the largest piece of space junk to fall uncontrolled in nearly 30 years. | ||
| Yeah, since 1991, I guess. | ||
| But check this out, this thing's massive. | ||
| This is why I was like, they say a rocket piece, and it's like, what does that mean? | ||
| Like a tiny little rock or something? | ||
| Yeah, right, right. | ||
| No, this thing's 20 tons. | ||
| Well, tiny rocks would just burn up in the atmosphere, so it has to be pretty big to make it. | ||
| But if it was like stage one and it fell before it escaped the atmosphere, it was like, you know. | ||
| Well, and made it all the way across the entire country and landed in the Atlantic. | ||
| That doesn't... That's crazy. | ||
| So how did this thing fly over the US? | ||
| I don't think that's stage one. | ||
| The large core stage of China's Long March 5B rocket re-entered Earth's atmosphere and plummeted out of control to the surface earlier this week. | ||
| At 100 feet long and 16 feet wide, it is the largest piece of space junk to fall uncontrolled from low Earth orbit in almost 30 years. | ||
| That's huge! | ||
| Initial reports suggested that the almost 20-ton rocket stage had fallen into the Atlantic Ocean off the west coast of Africa. | ||
| 20 tons? | ||
| 20 tons, bro. | ||
| Dang! | ||
| Imagine if that hit New York. | ||
| New reports from social media and some African news organizations suggest pieces of the rocket may have been thrown across parts of the Côte d'Ivoire. | ||
| Ivory Coast. | ||
| Ivory Coast, there you go. | ||
| The heavy-lift rocket, which was carrying China's prototype crew capsule, successfully launched from Wenchang Launch Center on Hainan Island off the country's southern coast. | ||
| Typically, rockets have a first stage that propels them for the first few minutes after launch, while the second stage helps the payload reach orbit. | ||
| But Long March 5B was different. | ||
| Instead, the rocket had a single core stage and four boosters that propelled it off the launch pad. | ||
| The speed and angle of the rocket's decaying orbit made it difficult to track. | ||
| Predictions spanned a range of sites from New York City to New Zealand, according to Space Flight Now. | ||
| That's a pretty large range. | ||
| What? | ||
| Yeah, nobody knew where it was going. | ||
| That's insane. | ||
| If you're going to get that prediction, you might as well not predict it at all. | ||
| Two different sides of the planet. | ||
| Right, right, right. | ||
| What could be anywhere? | ||
| Seriously. | ||
| The U.S. | ||
| Air Force's 18th Space Control Squadron, which tracks man-made objects in orbit around Earth, confirmed the rocket's re-entry was on May 11th at around 11.33 a.m. | ||
| Initial reports claimed the spacecraft had plummeted into the ocean off Africa's west coast. | ||
| Now two villages in the Ivory Coast have reported finding what they believe to be debris from the fallen rocket stage, according to images posted to social media and reported in the French-language news organization Afrique Soir. | ||
| Jonathan McDowell, an astronomer at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, tweeted that the location of one fallen object, a nearly 40-foot-long pipe seen in a number of photos, wow, is directly on the CZ-5B reentry track. | ||
| Look at that thing. | ||
| Whoa, man. | ||
| Holy cow. | ||
| Can you imagine getting hit by that? | ||
| Wait, hold on. | ||
| I got a question, though. | ||
| It seems like it wasn't close to New York. | ||
| It was on the west coast of Africa. | ||
| How is that... I mean, it's the Atlantic, but... Well, perhaps we haven't gotten to that part yet. | ||
| Oh, okay, okay. | ||
| So that's a different part of the rocket? | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Let's read it. | ||
| Go ahead. | ||
| Yeah, hey, look. | ||
| They want to claim it nearly hit New York. | ||
| They better back this up. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, let's go. | |
| While there's no official word on whether these pieces of debris are actually parts of the fallen rocket stage, it's looking more and more likely. | ||
| Lesina Zerbo, Executive Secretary of the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty Organization, tweeted May 12th that the International Monitoring System's Infrasound Network, primarily designed to detect nuclear blasts in the atmosphere, registered signals of debris traveling at supersonic speeds in the area. | ||
| What's the precedent here? | ||
| In 1991, the Soviet Salyut 7 space station tumbled back to Earth, breaking up over Argentina. | ||
| The Mir space station, which was decommissioned in 2001 and broke apart during a controlled re-entry above waters near Fiji, is the largest man-made object to re-enter Earth's atmosphere. | ||
| And NASA's Skylab space station famously pummeled a small Australian town in 1979. | ||
| Whoa. | ||
| Yikes, man. | ||
| I've never heard of that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Jeez. | |
| If the Long March 5B core stage landed Earth's atmosphere just 15 minutes earlier, chunks of it very likely could have fallen across New York City, Ars Technica reported. | ||
| But it isn't the first time China has played fast and loose with falling rocket parts. | ||
| In March, when China launched its Long March 3B rocket, a booster crash-landed downrange in the Guizhou province. | ||
| Late last year, another Long March 3B rocket ferried two satellites into orbit, but dropped sections of its boosters on a settlement near the launch site. | ||
| In 2018, yet another booster fell from the sky after the launch of a Long March 3B rocket and exploded just outside of a small town in the Guangxi province. | ||
| Witnesses posted stunning video clips of the fallen booster to social media. | ||
| In addition to smashing into the ground with unbelievable force, these boosters often still have traces of the toxic propellant hydrazine in them. | ||
| As tempting as it is, if one falls into your yard, don't try to get a closer look. | ||
| You think your yard would exist still if a 20-ton rocket fell into it? That's insane. | ||
| So they're saying 15 minutes earlier and it would have hit New York City. | ||
| Yeah, but they just said, you know what, man? | ||
| They also said it may have hit. | ||
| That makes sense. | ||
| Narrowly missing New York City. | ||
| 15 minutes. | ||
| I mean, that's all it takes. | ||
| Or what, New Zealand? | ||
| It's flipping around. | ||
| Well, I mean, doesn't the International Space Station go around the globe in 90 minutes? | ||
| I have no idea. | ||
| Is that it? | ||
| I think so, yeah. | ||
| I think they're flying at like 13,000 miles an hour. | ||
| So they go around the globe every 90 minutes, I'm pretty sure. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| So it would make sense, I guess. | ||
| Makes sense. | ||
| So 15 minutes, they're in Africa. | ||
| 15 minutes earlier, they're hitting New York City. | ||
| My question, though, what would have happened if it hit New York? | ||
| War? | ||
| You think so? | ||
| No, no. | ||
| I'm asking. | ||
| Ooh, sorry, a rocket just decimated one of your biggest cities. | ||
| I don't think anybody would believe him. | ||
| That was an accident. | ||
| That's what I'm thinking. | ||
| Man, think about, like, the damage you could do with an actual missile. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But think about how much more damage you'd do with just a giant... | ||
| 100-foot, 20-town slab of steel and debris. | ||
| That's uncontrollably falling onto Earth. | ||
| Slams into a building? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That would just kill so many people. | ||
| Scary, man. | ||
| It would streak across the city. | ||
| Wow, man, that would be nuts. | ||
| Remember we were talking about the tungsten rod being dropped from the satellite? | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| Like, you don't need a chemical explosive. | ||
| You can just... We talked about this. | ||
| The G.I. | ||
| Joe movie, I think it was? | ||
| Where the satellite drops a tungsten rod and just wipes out London? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Okay, I don't think it would be that bad. | ||
| Who knows? | ||
| This is something that we've talked about in the past. | ||
| Like, oh yeah, when was that G.I. | ||
| Joe movie? | ||
| When did that come out? | ||
| That was a long time ago. | ||
| It was a long time ago. | ||
| Imagine, like, what they have nowadays. | ||
| The tungsten rod thing has been, like, theorized for a long time, I guess. | ||
| Of, like, you know, just, like, firing a high-speed chunk of, like, very dense metal or whatever. | ||
| Have you seen, uh, Westworld? | ||
| I've seen the first season and parts of the second season. | ||
| So, I just finished, no spoilers here, but I just finished the third season, and there's this scene where one of the main characters was in the army, right? | ||
| And he's doing some, some, he's, like, tagging someone with something. | ||
| He's got, like, this, uh, These glasses that let him like pinpoint someone and then | ||
| he's like yeah target acquired hit it And then it cuts to the satellite | ||
| And it just you see this missile to unlock and just go into space and then drop down out of space and hit this person | ||
| And the explosions really small just the person just haven't you ever seen the drone strikes in like Palestine or | ||
| whatever? | ||
| I mean, I haven't seen these are cool videos of videos man Where you'll see like it's like black and white grainy | ||
| footage, and they'll be like a box up here over a guy Yeah. | ||
| And then all of a sudden you'll see just like, boom, and the guy blows up. | ||
| Just one person. | ||
| Just one person. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's insane. | |
| It's amazing. | ||
| Yeah, dude. | ||
| Holy cow. | ||
| Hey man, look, the United States was like, we want to figure out how to kill somebody. | ||
| Only the one person. | ||
| Only the one person. | ||
| From very far away. | ||
| Space. | ||
| We figured it out. | ||
| Space force. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I love it. | |
| Drones, Reaper missiles, Hellfire, whatever they're called. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| Yeah, so I wonder if If there's going to be anything coming from this, right? | ||
| Like, look, I know that we didn't get hit by it. | ||
| Right. | ||
| But does this, you know, does Donald Trump then come out and be like, Chinese rockets, you're very dangerous. | ||
| Is there going to be a stern talking to, at the very least? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Or is it like the science community is like, sorry, our bad. | ||
| Ooh. | ||
| The science community of China's? | ||
| Yeah, I don't know. | ||
| I got a bad track record going on right now, man. | ||
| You got a good point. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| So, I wonder, we probably have treaties for this stuff, though. | ||
| Yeah, probably. | ||
| But I'll tell you what, man, you look at what China does, you look at how they, you know, with climate change, with carbon emissions, and like, they don't care. | ||
| No. | ||
| Pollution, plastic waste, they don't care. | ||
| They're launching rockets, they don't care. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| You think anybody, any of these communist Chinese party people, you know what they're probably doing? | ||
| Some guy probably walked in and like, I have a very serious report. | ||
| One of our, you know, 20-ton rocket stages almost crashed in New York. | ||
| And then, like, some communist guy starts laughing. | ||
| Almost, huh? | ||
| Wow, that would've been funny. | ||
| Is there anything on that report that says it would've hit China? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No? | |
| Alright, well, why do we care? | ||
| Yeah, it's actually interesting, because in this article it says that they, it used to, like, here, go ahead, it used to hit, where am I at? | ||
| There we go. | ||
| There we go. | ||
| So their older ones, the 3B somewhere in here, it says that. | ||
| And it was falling and it was falling on China. | ||
| So they were hitting their own towns. | ||
| Very worried about this. | ||
| So they're like, man, we got to up our game and make the 5B rocket because then it'll go into orbit and we don't have to worry about it anymore. | ||
| That's what I'm seeing. | ||
| I mean, I'm just pointing it out. | ||
| Just pointing out what I'm seeing. | ||
| My allergies are lighting my face on fire right now. | ||
| Just to be completely honest, I am... | ||
| Allergies sound terrible. | ||
| They're awful, dude. | ||
| These trees, man! | ||
| Not so bad for me, but... I am so grateful I do not have allergies. | ||
| We basically live in a forest. | ||
| Thanks. | ||
| We basically live in a forest. | ||
| But another funny thing, you think China's hitting itself. | ||
| You think they care if they hit us? | ||
| No, they were hitting themselves. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| They solved that problem. | ||
| That's the thing. | ||
| They're like, we need a 20 ton rocket now, and then we'll get our stuff all the way out | ||
| there and then we don't have to worry about it. | ||
| Further away from us. | ||
| I get it. | ||
| I just don't. | ||
| Yeah, so some guy walks into the Communist Party meetings like, we have a serious problem. | ||
| Our rockets keep crash landing on our own cities. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hmm. | |
| And then they, you know, draw some calculations, and now it's New Zealand, New York, and they're like, good job. | ||
| That guy got a promotion. | ||
| That's better. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Good work. | |
| He got a raise. | ||
| Now it's not hitting us. | ||
| But there is more news on the China front. | ||
| So the question about responsibility is, it's an important one. | ||
| I know, you know, we're laughing. | ||
| We're having a good time. | ||
| Like, what if this 20-ton rocket stage just crashed in New York, killed thousands of people? | ||
| No, it's not funny, man. | ||
| No, it's not. | ||
| China's been doing messed up stuff. | ||
| Think about this. | ||
| If they did something like this intentionally, and then just feign like, oh no, oh, it was an accident, oh yeah, whoa, no, we didn't know. | ||
| But what about the stuff they do know about, right? | ||
| Take a look at this story. | ||
| U.S. | ||
| officials, Chinese hackers are targeting vaccine research. | ||
| So, I have talked about this before on my other channels, but look, we've got China doing a few things. | ||
| There's the I'll use the Simpsons joke. | ||
| There's subliminal, liminal, and superliminal. | ||
| Do you remember that joke? | ||
| No. | ||
| The guy was talking about how they get people to join the Navy, and then Lisa's like superliminal, and then he opens the window and he goes, hey you, join the Navy! | ||
| He just yells it out. | ||
| That's great. | ||
| So China hires talent scholars or whatever, like talent scouts or something, and they secretly get money from the Chinese government, They lie about it to the Feds, they're not supposed to get this money, and they're not disclosing it to federal agencies that are paying them. | ||
| So it's basically U.S. | ||
| tax dollars funding this research, and then these people are giving that information to the Chinese government. | ||
| Well, selling it, wouldn't they be? | ||
| Technically, right. | ||
| Because they're being paid to be in this program. | ||
| It's like, come on. | ||
| I wonder when these people are going to get charged with treason or something. | ||
| We have a cat on the table, by the way. | ||
| Go to the wide shot. | ||
| There we go. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You can see it. | |
| Cat butthole. | ||
| He just decided to be on the show. | ||
| He's joining us. | ||
| He's our guest. | ||
| That's the super liminal. | ||
| I mean, they're still hiding. | ||
| I'm being somewhat silly. | ||
| But then they do the disinformation, where they can still feign, oh, no, we didn't do anything wrong. | ||
| We were just telling our opinions. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's not us. | ||
| And then there's the overt hacking. | ||
| So that's why, look, man. | ||
| Is that what this is? | ||
| Yeah, so they're trying to steal our vaccine research. | ||
| I mean, we know this. | ||
| They're actually trying to hack us right now. | ||
| According to the US government. | ||
| That's what they're trying to do. | ||
| That's insane. | ||
| I believe it. | ||
| So this doesn't surprise me at all. | ||
| Actually, hey, maybe you'll see the cat. | ||
| He's coming over this way. | ||
| He's trying to push the cup off the table. | ||
| So what really kind of surprised me about the rocket and them launching this rocket right now was that they have a little bit of a pandemic going on there right now. | ||
| And they're taking out time to work on a rocket and they're taking out time to target our vaccinations. | ||
| Well, we're working on our rockets too. | ||
| We're about to launch. | ||
| They managed to get one into space. | ||
| So the timing just caught me off guard a little bit. | ||
| I was like, what, what are they doing? | ||
| I mean, we're still doing stuff, right? | ||
| True. | ||
| Technically correct. | ||
| We're locked down. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, we're about to send, like, in a week, we're gonna send Americans into space. | ||
| They just weld people's doors shut. | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
| Yeah, it's very efficient. | ||
| It's, like, hard for us. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| We got that dang old Constitution. | ||
| Not like these governors are respecting it or anything, but at least it's still there. | ||
| Well, at least the courts were on our side on that. | ||
| On the side of the people. | ||
| It's crazy to me, it's like... | ||
| I don't know, man. | ||
| I think Rogan was asking me this, is like, over time, does society just become authoritarian? | ||
| Like, China's so old. | ||
| Like, as a culture, as a civilization. | ||
| Does it just happen that way? | ||
| America's young! | ||
| We're young rebellious! | ||
| It's like, think about it in terms of, like, an actual human. | ||
| You know? | ||
| We're like, teenagers compared to everybody else. | ||
| And we're like, romping around, we got guns and stuff, and rockets, and we're like, freedom! | ||
|
unidentified
|
You can't tell me what to do! | |
| Well, I gotta think about, well, what about, like, Europe? | ||
| I mean, granted, it was, it has changed a lot over the past, 200 years too, you know, but they're... No, you're right, man. | ||
| The more I think about it, it's like... | ||
| Europe is a nightmare, bro. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| They don't have free speech. | ||
| No. | ||
| They're like super authoritarian. | ||
| Not to the extent we do, yeah. | ||
| You're right. | ||
| Yeah, it just depends on where in Europe I are. | ||
| But they're like very, very like... | ||
| You know what I think it is? | ||
| I think that's the right assessment. | ||
| I think what happens is people defer to safety always. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Always, always. | ||
| So when you get a really, really old civilization, they keep saying it's for your safety over and over again. | ||
| People just say, okay. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And then they get used to it, right? | ||
| So, right now everyone's saying, like, could you imagine if we had to get, like, some kind of tattoo to track us? | ||
| Bro, I know it sounds bad, but let me tell you something. | ||
| Two generations, nobody would care. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You'd be born with a tattoo, and you'd get it updated every couple years. | ||
| and people would be like oh make sure to scan your barcode when you're you know entering the building yeah like we have we have id cards passports social security numbers we have all of these how about like uh uh what is the movie minority report where they walk into the subway and they look at the scanner it's like boop gets their eyes irises boop Welcome, John Anderton. | ||
| They figured out a way around that. | ||
| It's called a cell phone. | ||
| So, basically the way it works. | ||
| Now they know everything and everywhere you go. | ||
| Dude, Facebook knows when you poop. | ||
| Facebook knows when you poop. | ||
| I don't have Facebook on my phone. | ||
| It doesn't matter. | ||
| Well, how did they know then? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Bro. | |
| Facebook's not on my phone. | ||
| I never got it on my phone. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So what? | |
| Doesn't matter. | ||
| How do they have access to my phone? | ||
| Does anyone in your family have Facebook? | ||
| Probably. | ||
| Boom. | ||
| Done. | ||
| How would they know when I poop though? | ||
| When you text... Please, give me the logic. | ||
| When you text and communicate with... I don't communicate with others. | ||
| With your family? | ||
| No. | ||
| Never. | ||
| Yes you do. | ||
| So here's how, so Facebook has a thing called shadow profiles. | ||
| So you have a Facebook profile, you also have a shadow profile, and Facebook accidentally released this one day, like a glitch. | ||
| On accident? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And people saw their shadow profiles, and it's got crazy stuff in there. | ||
| Facebook can predict what you will eat. | ||
| That sounds like Westworld more! | ||
| See, now I would be spoiling, so I'm not gonna say anything, but man. | ||
| It's what people need to realize. | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
| Let's say you don't have a Facebook account. | ||
| You do have a Facebook profile. | ||
| Let's say you... No. | ||
| No, Tim. | ||
| I've never signed up for Facebook. | ||
| You still have a Facebook profile. | ||
| It's very simple. | ||
| Yeah, profile. | ||
| Right. | ||
| What does a profile do? | ||
| With all your information. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So, check this out. | ||
| Your mom, your dad, your brother, your sister, your girlfriend, whatever, they all have you saved in their phones as Adam, son, boyfriend, husband, whatever, right? | ||
| When they download the Facebook app, which is by default on Android phones and can't be deleted. | ||
| Seriously? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Oh, geez. | ||
| So, do you have an Android? | ||
| No, I don't. | ||
| Oh, you're lucky. | ||
| You might still have Facebook on it. | ||
| So, what happens is, when they open the messenger, it says, would you like to sync your contacts? | ||
| Facebook gets access to all of the contact list of everyone who knows you, and then here's what they find out. | ||
| They know who your mom is, they know who your significant other is, who your best friend is, they can tell based on the frequency of like messages and things like that. | ||
| Now if you actually use the apps, that's when they can really predict your behavior. | ||
| I want someone's email at Facebook so I can email them when I'm actually pooping. | ||
| Be like, hey Facebook, I'm pooping. | ||
| Just so you know. | ||
| Just so you have a new record. | ||
| No, no, no, you don't understand. | ||
| You're gonna draft the email and you're gonna be like, I'll show them. | ||
| And then your phone's gonna go brrp and you're gonna go, wait what? | ||
| And it's gonna be like, we know Adam, you don't need to email us. | ||
| I'm not kidding, I'm not kidding. | ||
| Before I hit send. | ||
| Before you hit send. | ||
| So, I was reading this crazy thing that said, basically, they know where people will eat and what time they will eat because they can start predicting based on when your break time is. | ||
| So, here's what they know. | ||
| From the hours of 8.55 until 11.34, your phone doesn't move. | ||
| Then, it travels three blocks, you know, north to a shopping center. | ||
| For, you know, 15 minutes, comes back, and then stops moving again. | ||
| Guess what? | ||
| They know it's most likely your lunch break and you went to go eat. | ||
| So they also know based on the things you say, and what time it is, | ||
| when you're going to go to eat and where you will likely eat. | ||
| Man, I tell you, there was a, um, this, this test thing that they had a long time ago, | ||
| I think it was called like the Spark or something, it was a website. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And they created these tests where they could predict things about you, where it would be like, we can prove whether or not you're like a man or a woman, or whether you're white or not white. | ||
| And they would ask you questions that seemingly made no sense. | ||
| It would be like, which would you prefer? | ||
| And then it would show you weird shapes. | ||
| You'd be like, I don't know, and you just click one, right? | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And then at the end, they would tell you, for some reason, white men click this shape and white women click that shape. | ||
| We don't know why. | ||
| I want to take this test. | ||
| It's old. | ||
| It's from the 90s, man. | ||
| It's like late 90s research stuff. | ||
| See how I compare. | ||
| But there still is a lot of stuff like that, like Jonathan Haidt's research, which does moral foundations testing and stuff like that. | ||
| So you can see where you are politically, do you believe in liberty and stuff. | ||
| Is that the one I did like a couple? | ||
| No, that was a political compass test. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| But anyway, the main point is Facebook can predict when you will poop based on when you eat. | ||
| What are they selling that info to? | ||
| Toilet paper companies? | ||
| No, for real. | ||
| Toilet paper companies. | ||
| Think about it. | ||
| I think they're doing all right in this pandemic. | ||
| Listen, toilet paper advertiser says we want to maximize sales. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Facebook says we know when to show your ad for maximum effect. | ||
| Think about it. | ||
| Like, on Instagram, like, oh yeah, here, definitely during these times, more people poop. | ||
| And then look, you'll get an ad, and it'll be like, Scratchy bum, you need double quilted. | ||
| Bro, what are you doing? | ||
| And you're gonna be like, dude, I do need it. | ||
| For real. | ||
| Dude, I have bought a ton of stuff off of Instagram. | ||
| Toilet paper? | ||
| Not toilet paper. | ||
| This lamp? | ||
| This lamp? | ||
| Yep. | ||
| they knew that with the alien and with the original wanted was the original one from the incident is one night one | ||
| none of the original the starry night on a lot of that was uh... | ||
| friend of mine uh... was like | ||
| but over there somewhere you get that i don't know if you're not you can see it | ||
| many of the shots so unfortunately it's little it's tiny tiny tiny | ||
| so think about what all of these other networks now Google probably knows a lot, too. | ||
| And people don't realize, like, we talk about, like, we can't let them, you know, chip us, right? | ||
| It's like, bro, you bought your chip. | ||
| You begged for an upgrade. | ||
| You were like, bro, upgrade my chip, please. | ||
| You know, it's funny, I was listening to Rogan, and they were talking about this conspiracy theory, and I really do mean it, where people think their phones are listening to them. | ||
| They are, aren't they? | ||
| No. | ||
| Oh, they're not? | ||
| It's just algorithms? | ||
| Well, it depends, right? | ||
| So there's actually some truth to this. | ||
| Smart devices always have the microphones on because they have voice activation. | ||
| Oh, right. | ||
| So they are listening to you. | ||
| But when Facebook delivers an ad to you and you were talking about it, it's not because they were listening to you. | ||
| It's because they know everything about you and can predict your behavior. | ||
| It's worse than you realize. | ||
| It's way worse. | ||
| That is worse. | ||
| I remember I went to Walmart and they had a sale on TVs. | ||
| And we were walking through the aisle, and the TVs were in the middle of the aisle, on discount or whatever, and it was a big TV, and I was like, that's a good idea. | ||
| It was 300 bucks. | ||
| And I'm like, it's a widescreen TV, we don't have a TV. | ||
| The TV broke. | ||
| I'll grab it. | ||
| So we call the guy over, he puts in the cart. | ||
| When I got home, I went on Facebook, and there was an ad showing what appeared to be that exact same TV on the stand in the middle, and I was like, what's going on? | ||
| This is crazy. | ||
| Interesting. | ||
| But it wasn't because they were listening to me. | ||
| It was because they knew I went to Walmart. | ||
| They knew that I was, you know, a 32-year-old male. | ||
| That makes sense. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| That's the demographic. | ||
| So they predicted I would probably, you know, want this TV. | ||
| They were right. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| You know what the most annoying thing about all that is, though? | ||
| No, I don't. | ||
| Why don't you tell me? | ||
| You ever get an advertisement for something you already bought? | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Like you just explained. | ||
| But right, but like even worse, like you go to Amazon, and you'll be like, I need some, you know, double-quilted TP, bro. | ||
| And then you buy it, and then all of a sudden you go to a website and you see all these ads for double-quilted. | ||
| You're like, dude, I already ordered it! | ||
| Why are you advertising this to me? | ||
| Okay, something like toilet paper you keep getting. | ||
| Yeah, but like right af- okay. | ||
| Forget toilet paper. | ||
| Let's say, let's say you order a fancy new... I think the TV summed it up right there. | ||
| Pro, pro tech deck. | ||
| Let's say, let's say you get the fancy tech deck with the fancy little... Are those pro? | ||
| This, this is the, I just put the grip tape on a regular one because I don't, I don't like, yeah, these are the pro ones. | ||
| These are like, we had to build these. | ||
| Although you said that they're not that good though. | ||
| I don't like it. | ||
| I don't. | ||
| No, not this one specifically. | ||
| There's, there's better ones. | ||
| It's pretty legit though. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's wood. | |
| It is, but the pop is bad. | ||
| I mean, I don't know how to even pop these things. | ||
| Yeah, nah. | ||
| They're good fun. | ||
| But, uh, I ordered some better ones with better grip with bigger noses and tails. | ||
| Anyway, the point is, I bought it already. | ||
| I don't need any more. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I've got it. | |
| Look, it's a tech deck. | ||
| Well, it's not tech, it's a fingerboard. | ||
| Why are they advertising them to me? | ||
| Because you're not happy with those. | ||
| You know what's funny? | ||
| You said it, right? | ||
| You said they don't have enough pop? | ||
| You want something better? | ||
| Maybe they know. | ||
| They know you so well. | ||
| But they're advertising the ones I don't want. | ||
| Oh, the same ones? | ||
| Yes! | ||
| Oh, okay. | ||
| That's the point. | ||
| I'll let everybody in on a secret. | ||
| When you're watching my videos, look at the advertisements when I'm reading news stories, and you'll know what we're doing. | ||
| So there's been a few videos where it's like, the ads are for B&H and for camera equipment and tripods. | ||
| It's because we're setting up the new show. | ||
| Yeah, I took a screenshot of one of your videos one time and I was like, look what Tim has for his ads. | ||
| He has skateboards, he has skate shoes and he had, I forget what else you had, almost like beanies or something. | ||
| Skate ramps was on there for a while. | ||
| We were doing segments and I kept seeing the skate block that you ordered and I'm like, What? | ||
| You know where I was just skating that earlier and then and then if those are listening if you're watching | ||
| Watching what the ads are you can then like comment be like how's the new the new skate box Tim? | ||
| Well, I mean is it an ad for something that you already got or something that you're probably gonna buy | ||
| So there's a company called there's two companies There's OC Ramps and there's Keen Ramps. | ||
| And I think, I'm pretty sure the mini ramp we have is Keen. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So it's good. | ||
| It's a good ramp. | ||
| It's really good. | ||
| And so I just ordered another smaller one for like practice. | ||
| Is it from Keen also? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Nice. | ||
| I'm pretty sure it is. | ||
| I've seen that little ramp actually. | ||
| They did a giveaway like a week ago or something. | ||
| On Instagram. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| The lockdown's jamming up delivery, but yeah. | ||
| When you see the ads, it'll be an ad for the whole company. | ||
| So you'll see a grind rail. | ||
| You won't know exactly what it is that I bought. | ||
| But I think it's really funny because I was looking at the price of gold and silver once, and then all of a sudden all the ads were for gold and silver. | ||
| And I'm like, I wonder if people are going to catch this. | ||
| You know, I've actually thought that multiple times, and not one person has asked us, like, hey, about the ads. | ||
| It feels like people are, well, thankfully, they're probably listening to what we're talking about. | ||
| Hopefully, yeah, right. | ||
| You know, not analyzing everything. | ||
| Well, I think a lot of people are just listening, too. | ||
| Yeah, like while they're doing stuff, that makes sense. | ||
| So, well, actually, let me ask you guys. | ||
| Good thing or bad thing? | ||
| What? | ||
| that the computers know what you want before you even know what you want. | ||
| Well, I mean, I don't want to see ads for... | ||
| I can't think of random things that I would never buy or never even... | ||
| I don't know, it's... | ||
| Is it a good thing? | ||
| Is it a bad thing? | ||
| It's just a thing. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| What do you think? | ||
| I think it tends to be, based on whatever you're looking at, it could be good or bad. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| It's the same thing. | ||
| It's kind of neutral. | ||
| My question is, if you were sitting here one day and an ad popped up for this UFO thing and you were like, I want that, would you be happy? | ||
| And then you bought it. | ||
| Like, I bought that. | ||
| I saw an ad on Instagram and I was like, I would like to buy that. | ||
| Full disclosure, I do that all the time. | ||
| So it's a good thing. | ||
| Yeah, works for me. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Every single time anyone has ever told... I've never bought anything off Instagram. | ||
| In fact, when Facebook first bought Instagram, the ads were just insane. | ||
| And I would report every single ad for being trash. | ||
| To the point of, I would go on Instagram to block ads. | ||
| And I was like, what am I even doing on Instagram? | ||
| And I kind of stopped Instagramming for a while. | ||
| But now it's to the point where anyone's like, oh, yeah, I got this thing on Instagram. | ||
| And I just all I can think is just there's a little like giggle, like sucker. | ||
| Half the stuff is made in China. | ||
| Half of it's POSs. | ||
| I mean, actually more way more than half. | ||
| There's a lot of it that I'm just like, that's just going to be trash one day. | ||
| I bet this is made in China. | ||
| I mean, sure, that UFO has. | ||
| We've had a lot of fun on the show with the UFO. | ||
| When it stops spinning, everyone starts like saying, Spin the UFO! | ||
| It's been great. | ||
| It's part of the show, so for us, it does make sense. | ||
| There you go. | ||
| Spin that UFO. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There we go. | |
| Spin! | ||
| Spin Well, look at the cool thing we got! | ||
| It's levitating! | ||
| It's amazing! | ||
| It's sure floating! | ||
| Yeah, sure, it's cool. | ||
| That's cool. | ||
| Yeah, cool. | ||
| Cool, dude. | ||
| It's like anti-gravity, man. | ||
| Great. | ||
| It's very cool. | ||
| It's a bad thing when they're advertising things you already bought. | ||
| That's stupid. | ||
| But think about this, like, okay, so we often project Our current technological state to the future. | ||
| Yeah, okay. | ||
| So instead of thinking about, well we can't, we can't predict for the most part. | ||
| So we take things we already have and we exaggerate them, right? | ||
| So a good example is Back to the Future. | ||
| Right. | ||
| He goes to the future, it's 20, what was it, 2015? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And his shoes tied themselves. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Or whatever it is, like clothes shrank. | ||
| It's like, it's an exaggeration of what already existed. | ||
| There's a really funny graphic that I remember seeing once, where it was like in the year 1900, what they thought the year 2000 would be like. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And it was firefighters with mechanical wings flying. | ||
| Like, because it was a technology they had, but they were like, what if it was better? | ||
| So we can't make that same mistake. | ||
| So, you know, I'm thinking about what's the logical conclusion of these weird AI advertisement stuff? | ||
| And the assumption is we live in a world where before you even think you want it, it's delivered to you. | ||
| Like, you're sitting there and you're like, man, I'm hungry. | ||
| Like, before you even say you want it, it's like eggs, just like, you know, a robot comes in and drops eggs, fried eggs. | ||
| Right, it's been like a certain amount of time, so you're probably gonna be hungry. | ||
| No plate, just drop it right on the table. | ||
| No, no, no, no, served up right for you. | ||
| It's like, your chair brings you to the bathroom before you even know you have to go, and you're like, I don't have to, oh. | ||
| Oh, I do! | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, hey, look! | |
| The turtle's peaking, poking his head out! | ||
| And then eventually we're just like, we're just like, we don't move, we're sitting in chairs. | ||
| Like in WALL-E. | ||
| Yeah, WALL-E world. | ||
| Exactly, exactly. | ||
| Oh, that's such a great movie. | ||
| But I don't think so. | ||
| I don't think so. | ||
| I don't think so because that's projecting, right? | ||
| Yeah, it is. | ||
| There was, I don't know if you saw the story, there was some crazy story about how we've discovered a way to reverse aging by like 54% or something. | ||
| What? | ||
| Really? | ||
|
unidentified
|
54%? | |
| They did some kind of plasma transfusion between mice and found like ridiculous aging reversal. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Whoa. | |
| So it's not peer-reviewed yet. | ||
| So this is new? | ||
| Yeah, it's new. | ||
| I was reading some report from this guy on Twitter, some PhD guy, and he's like, this looks legit. | ||
| The goal now is to figure out what in young plasma is causing cellular repair, and then you get a pill, you get an injection, and then you'd basically be like 28 forever. | ||
| That sounds good. | ||
| So that's, I bring that up. | ||
| And also frightening. | ||
| Maybe a little, yeah. | ||
| Yeah, dude. | ||
| Watching Altered Carbon. | ||
| Yeah, man. | ||
| Nah, I'm not, I'm not. | ||
| The rich just keep getting richer and stay the same age? | ||
| Nah. | ||
| The question, I guess, is. | ||
| Scary, dude. | ||
| I was watching this thing about immortality. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And they said, the only reason we actually think immortality is a bad thing is because we age. | ||
| And so somebody who's 60 or 70 who has chronic health problems is like, immortality sucks. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Because we know that's in our future, most of us would say the same thing. | ||
| Alright. | ||
| But there was a- the argument- If we could stay at our peak- If you could stay 28 years old- Yeah. | ||
| Then most people would prefer to stay 28 forever. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Even if it meant, like, at 100 you would die, but if you were immortal, it's like being young forever. | ||
| You're healthy, you're fine, you just want to keep living. | ||
| Hm. | ||
| I think it's a bad thing, though. | ||
| At least for now. | ||
| But- Yeah, there's too much greed in the world. | ||
| It's not about the greed. | ||
| It's about human development. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Well, what is stopping it from being what you would want it to be? | ||
| Greed. | ||
| You know what, man? | ||
| It's a sad reality, but people die, and it's a good thing. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| In terms of like, we pass on our knowledge and our secrets to our youth, who then get a new chance at experiencing the world, and developing things and shaping things the way they see it, and we pass on. | ||
| So it's like, we get our time here, To learn, develop, grow, make the changes we think, and then we pass that information down, and that causes evolution and development and, you know. | ||
| Yeah, we need boundaries. | ||
| Think about it this way. | ||
| Imagine if a scientist from, you know, who was born in the 1700s was alive today. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| He'd probably accept a bunch of things as true, but he'd have so many ingrained falsehoods. | ||
| So it's like, I was reading about the discovery of like, I think it was special relativity, or maybe the Big Bang. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And there's always a group of scientists that reject the newer theories and really, really put scrutiny, you know, scrutinize it. | ||
| I was talking to this physicist guy about M-theory, which is like, it's like, I'm not super familiar with it, but a unified theory, I guess, like a theory of the universe, theory of everything. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And there's this guy named, I think his name is Garrett Lisey, who has the extremely simple | ||
| theory of everything. | ||
| This is all really old stuff. | ||
| It's probably changed a whole lot. | ||
| But I was talking to this physicist who said there's a problem in physics in that these | ||
| scientists have dedicated their whole lives to this theory. | ||
| So that if it turns out it's wrong, their whole life, their work, their legacy is wrong. | ||
| Or they spent their entire life to figure out that it was wrong. | ||
| They don't see it that way. | ||
| Think about it this way. | ||
| I don't see it that way. | ||
| Like, think about it this way. | ||
| Like, you spend, you know, 10 years building this very beautiful, like, model house. | ||
| And then, all of a sudden, one day, it falls apart. | ||
| You didn't spend 10 years to figure out that the final touch would collapse. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| You were trying to build this beautiful house and now you're like, | ||
| everything I've built has been, you know, for nothing. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| So they reject it. | ||
| It's not even about whether or not they could accept they were wrong and be like, | ||
| I have successfully proven it false. | ||
| Some people do. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| It's about them resisting and being like, I don't believe that. | ||
| I don't believe. | ||
| No, no, no, no, no, no. | ||
| That's them losing the science part of it and it becoming like an emotional investment. | ||
| Right. | ||
| You know, like part of their fundamentals, you know, and it's like when you start off as a scientist, science, you know, it's all about changing and learning and testing and figuring out what works. | ||
| So if you can't see that it works and it takes you 30 years to figure out that it doesn't work, Then you're the scientist that did it, and if that's not what you're focused on, then it's a fundamental issue with the human that is the scientist. | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
|
unidentified
|
It is. | |
| It's a human problem. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's why I'm saying, you know, somebody develops a theory, then, you know, they retire, they die, they've had their time on Earth, and then the younger person, who is less invested, says, hey, wait a minute. | ||
| This right here disproves that! | ||
|
unidentified
|
Whoa! | |
| And now they develop and then less attachments. | ||
| So I'd imagine if humans were immortal and didn't die, then there would be cultural artifacts that would persist that are detrimental, that make no sense, that maybe made sense at a certain point don't make sense now. | ||
| kind of shining a light on how vulnerable we actually really are because imagine if all the drugs in the world and I mean drugs like vaccines and everything we have to fight any ailment that the human body goes through like what if it all went away how many people would actually die then you know how many of us are actually strong enough to survive at that point you know because we're keeping humans alive for so long now right I mean it's That's a tough question, man. | ||
| It's kind of crazy. | ||
| Are we getting stronger or are we getting weaker? | ||
| We're kind of fending off death with our man-made stuff, right? | ||
| That's some dangerous thinking there, Adam. | ||
| That's to stick to your work and keep your mouth shut. | ||
| That's what this is making me think of. | ||
| You were talking about us getting stronger and passing on our stuff, but we're not passing on our immunities. | ||
| We're passing on the drug that Just kills the virus that would have killed us that we don't have immunity to anymore We've got we've got a serious conundrum in our in in civilization Yeah, and that's you know, there's very there. | ||
| Do you know what Fermi's paradox is? | ||
| I feel like we've talked about it a couple times, probably. | ||
| Which one of the paradoxes is it? | ||
| Well, it's the question of, if the universe is so big, why haven't we discovered alien life? | ||
| I'm simplifying it. | ||
| But one of them, I think, is that... Or that there's definitely life out there. | ||
| That's what it's basically saying. | ||
| The paradox is, in all likelihood, there is. | ||
| So why haven't we found them? | ||
| And there's a bunch of proposed answers. | ||
| I think one of them is very simple. | ||
| We evolve in a way to survive. | ||
| But once we've conquered our survival, then these things actually become extremely detrimental. | ||
| When you have ten people living in the wilderness together, doing everything in our power to save someone's life is crucial to the success of the tribe. | ||
| When you have 7.6 billion people doing everything to ensure that literally everyone survives, becomes eventually detrimental in certain ways. | ||
| So we see the persistence of genetic diseases that, you know, we've basically separated ourselves from this. | ||
| Now, we're smart enough to actually get rid of some of these diseases and start improving us, so I don't know if it's necessarily pro or con in many aspects. | ||
| But I think it is true that we're at a weird point where it is an ethical, moral conundrum when you have people who provide nothing to the greater society in terms of survivability actually become net detriments to it. | ||
| In a lot of cases, they have no choice. | ||
| The people? | ||
| Yeah, the people. | ||
| Not everyone has even the chance or ever will have the chance to help society further itself because society is insane. | ||
| It's huge. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Are you alive? | |
| You know what I mean? | ||
| Like, so... It's a conundrum of... If we were a tribe of 30 people, and there was someone who was, like, a vegetable... Like, people would... Like, in a coma? | ||
| Like, totally brain-dead. | ||
| Yeah, what are they gonna do? | ||
| I don't know, because there could be historical... If we were a tribe in the middle of the woods, they would probably die. | ||
| You can't feed them. | ||
| Right, they would die. | ||
| So we've invented technology to provide nutrients to sustain someone who's literally just consuming resources and energy, because we have a moral obligation to protect life. | ||
| That's a challenge. | ||
| It is. | ||
| Because I certainly think we should save the lives. | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
| Let's talk about the money. | ||
| I mean, who's we? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You said we got the money. | ||
| It's like, but then that hospital that say it costs $50,000 to keep someone on a respirator and being fed catheter system, what all the whole, go ahead. | ||
| You definitely want to say something right now. | ||
| Go. | ||
| What better use of public funds as moral people do we have than taking care of people who can't take care of themselves through no fault of their own? | ||
| I know, it's so easy to say that, but that is not the way it is. | ||
| Yeah, I know, it's in the perfect world. | ||
| Right? | ||
| We spend more money killing, figuring out ways to kill people. | ||
| What happens when the Xenotaxans come from the Galactic Federation and start firebombing our oil fields and now we're like, we need hospital beds for the wounded. | ||
| What do we do? | ||
| You got triage. | ||
| Do we kick those people out of the hospitals? | ||
| Yeah, you would have to. | ||
| That's the point I'm making. | ||
| So it's like, right now... At peace, yeah? | ||
| We have a moral obligation to save all life. | ||
| So there are some people who have never had a thought in their lives. | ||
| It's true. | ||
| And I know some people who have family members who were born with severe mental disabilities, don't speak, are considered to be essentially comatose or severely developmentally disabled. | ||
| And they're legally obligated and morally obligated to do everything they can to save this life. | ||
| And I agree. | ||
| But I also recognize the potential philosophical conundrum. | ||
| I guess when it comes to a real conflict, we're not going to provide resources for these people. | ||
| We're already there, aren't we? | ||
| didn't we have like the do not resuscitate orders the people the doctors that were like that person's dead this person's more important yeah save them instead of them well that's just that happened in italy that happened here right but it's already happened yeah so we're already past that point The craziest thing about it is that most of our hospitals weren't overrun. | ||
| Right, that's what I'm hearing. | ||
| It was key hospitals that were overrun. | ||
| And so that resulted in them being like, this hospital, we can't do it. | ||
| So you die. | ||
| Yeah, what do you do, man? | ||
| What do you do? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I'm glad I was not a doctor in that situation, that I had to make that choice. | ||
| When you go too far to the extremes, you end up with no good answer, right? | ||
| You go full fascist and they're like, unplug them! | ||
| And you go too far left and they're like, don't unplug them and don't provide resources to those who truly need it. | ||
| It's like logic versus emotion, I guess. | ||
| And man, it's tough. | ||
| If you lose your emotion, you become a robot. | ||
| Nobody wants to be the Borg. | ||
| But if you lose your logic, you become just like, you collapse. | ||
| You can't function properly. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
| So I guess somehow we got into this conversation talking about immortality. | ||
| Yeah, how did we get here? | ||
| Because I was talking about like scientific development or something. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And we're talking about immortality. | ||
| That's great. | ||
| That's fun. | ||
| I like that. | ||
| That's fun. | ||
| That was great. | ||
| It was deep questions. | ||
| You're just hitting them up, though. | ||
| That's nice. | ||
| So here's my question. | ||
| Would you take immortality? | ||
| If the vampire Lestat walked in right now, and it was literally Tom Cruise... Absolutely. | ||
| No hesitation. | ||
| That was a great book, by the way. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The book? | |
| I've seen the movie. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Lestat. | |
| The book, Lestat. | ||
| Oh, Lestat. | ||
| I've seen an interview with a vampire. | ||
| Also a good book. | ||
| Vampire thing aside, that's silly, but yeah, would you take immortality? | ||
| Man, I don't know. | ||
| I mean, I would want to say yes, because I would love to see the civilization in the future where we colonize this whole solar system, travel around, go to the different planets, see it all. | ||
| I mean, I think about Star Trek was one of my favorite shows. | ||
| When you asked me, If I would want to be immortal, the first thing I'd think of is, oh man, I could travel the stars then. | ||
| I can actually travel the universe and not have to worry about dying. | ||
| But are we talking about biological immortality where you just don't age? | ||
| Right. | ||
| Or like you're Wolverine, invincible, you know, regenerating and you can't, literally can't die. | ||
| I'll take that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| That sounds good too. | ||
| What happened to the heat death of the universe, man? | ||
| Life won't last forever. | ||
| You'll be just floating around in all pure blackness. | ||
| I mean, didn't, didn't Wolverine die? | ||
| Well, but yeah, but I'm talking about... Eventually. | ||
| Spoiler, I guess, from Logan. | ||
| Didn't he though? | ||
| I don't actually remember, did he or not? | ||
| I'm using him as just like an example. | ||
| What I mean is... I will become immortal if I have the choice to kill myself eventually. | ||
| That's what I was gonna say. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Boom. | |
| I'd say yes. | ||
| How about now? | ||
| Because then I'd be like, 100 years from now, I'd be like, that was fun, seppuku! | ||
| What a way to go. | ||
| It's like Korean. | ||
| It's like, actually you have to slice off your left ankle. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What? | |
| I don't think I can do that. | ||
| Like the one weakness is your Achilles heel. | ||
| It's like, well, it's time to go. | ||
| Let me get that. | ||
| Yep, that's it. | ||
| Just flick it. | ||
| Well, you could be a skateboarder. | ||
| But hold on, man. | ||
| My ankles are screaming. | ||
| You're very idealistic. | ||
| Maybe I am. | ||
| Because what if the future isn't we explore the stars? | ||
| It's a bunch of SJWs start locking people in gulags. | ||
| What was it? | ||
| Hair Carry? | ||
| What? | ||
| Harry Carrey? | ||
| Isn't that another term for it? | ||
| Harry Carrey? | ||
| Harry Carrey is the guy from the Cubs? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, no, no. | |
| It sounds the same. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| I don't know. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Seppuku? | ||
| Harry Carrey? | ||
| Harry Carrey was the guy who talked like this. | ||
| And he was like a Cubs announcer. | ||
| Also, what was that? | ||
| It's Seppuku. | ||
| It is the same thing. | ||
| It's a similar, like, suicidal thing. | ||
| Harry Carrey? | ||
| Yeah, it's spelled H-A-R-I-K-A-R-I. | ||
| Oh, excuse me. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, excuse me. | |
| You're from Chicago. | ||
| So of course, I know, but funny thing is, I'm from Chicago, too. | ||
| So whenever I say it, I think of him doing it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's not, that's brutal. | |
| I know! | ||
| This makes no sense. | ||
| Yeah, but I loved him, man. | ||
| He was hilarious. | ||
| I went and saw him a bunch. | ||
| He's the announcer for the Cubs. | ||
| Was. | ||
| Well, he was. | ||
| Rest his soul. | ||
| For many, many years in Wrigley Field in Chicago. | ||
| So, us growing up in Chicago, like, we think Harry Caray, and it's just like, I'm Harry Caray! | ||
| He spoke like this! | ||
| He's a funny guy. | ||
| You know what, man? | ||
| Let me ask you another question. | ||
| Oh, please. | ||
| I love these deep questions. | ||
| What if they couldn't preserve your body, but they could preserve your consciousness digitally? | ||
| In a stack? | ||
| No, no, like in a virtual... Yeah, basically like in a stack and alter carbon. | ||
| No, no, Black Mirror. | ||
| Oh, okay. | ||
| I don't know what... It's when they go to retire. | ||
| They're like 80. | ||
| They download their brains into a server where all of a sudden they're in their 20s and they're in digital retirement episodes. | ||
| Oh, yeah, I did see that episode. | ||
| And now you're young and you're partying and you're like... Doing whatever you want forever? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I mean, it sounds good. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I mean, do I have any say, or can anyone have any say on the outside world? | ||
| Or once you're in there, you're like, cut off? | ||
| I guess, well, no. | ||
| Because that's a big difference. | ||
| Like, you can still communicate with people because they come visit you. | ||
| They can come in, hang out on the server. | ||
| Interesting. | ||
| Was there a Futurama episode? | ||
| I'm surprised you didn't go Futurama with that. | ||
| Uh, no, the Futurama one I think is they're, like, just comatose or something. | ||
| They're, like, in a library of retirement where they're, like, plugged in. | ||
| No, I think that's what it is. | ||
| I think they're in a virtual world. | ||
| Yeah, it is a virtual world. | ||
| Yeah, but the Black Mirror one was, that's a show, right? | ||
| More spot on, yeah. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| Yeah, because, yeah, Juniper? | ||
| Yeah, San Juniper or something? | ||
| Yeah, something like that. | ||
| Yeah, they're, like, partying and stuff, and they're, like, young forever. | ||
| I think it'd be weird because you'd have, like, one server that's the 19—like, people born in the 1920s. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And they're, like, all super racist and, like, very, like, traditional. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And so then you wouldn't mix the people who were born in the 70s who are all, like, you know— Hippies, hippies. | ||
| Yeah, okay. | ||
| No, born in the 70s are not hippies! | ||
| Born in the 70s, yeah, yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Children of hippies. | |
| Gen Xers. | ||
| Whoa, whoa, whoa. | ||
| I know a lot of... I have a lot of older cousins that were born in the 70s. | ||
| They were definitely hippies. | ||
| Oh, were they? | ||
| Yes, definitely. | ||
| What I'm saying is... Well, their parents were hippies, too, so it kind of... Boomers were hippies. | ||
| The people born in the 50s who were late teenagers in the 70s were hippies. | ||
| I read something crazy. | ||
| I read that Woodstock, there was a pandemic during Woodstock. | ||
| What, really? | ||
| Yeah, flu pandemic. | ||
| Oh, wow. | ||
| Yeah, and they're like, nobody cared. | ||
| They're like, it's because it only affected older people. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And so the question was then, it's like, I think this was like some economic council. | ||
| They were like, if that's the case, man, we've, I don't think they made this argument, but it's kind of like, we prioritize safety. | ||
| Isn't that kind of what's going, what we're finding out about COVID? | ||
| It's kind of, it's killing all these older folk that were already at risk. | ||
| If they've gotten the flu, they probably would have died also. | ||
| People with no vitamin D. Yeah. | ||
| Get outside, get some sunshine more often. | ||
| But they're telling you to stay inside. | ||
| And now there's this whole thing about like kids are, there's this new thing that's going around. | ||
| Inflammatory syndrome. | ||
| It sounds like a scare tactic, honestly. | ||
| It does, man. | ||
| It sounds like they're trying to scare people to continue on. | ||
| Look at South Dakota. | ||
| Yeah, nothing happened, right? | ||
| Nothing happened. | ||
| So, for those that don't know, South Dakota never locked down, and the media attacked them relentlessly, and then they still refused, and now it's three weeks on from when they were being attacked. | ||
| The media was like, South Dakota, the new hot spot. | ||
| Three weeks later, nothing. | ||
| And, of course, they're not talking about it. | ||
| Right, they don't talk about that part. | ||
| It's like, no, no, no, no, don't talk about it. | ||
| Meanwhile, Los Angeles is like, we must lock down indefinitely until there's a cure for a virus? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| What are you talking about? | ||
| And no wonder that the Republican just won in California, didn't they, or something? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know exactly what went down, but... 25th district. | |
| This is a good opportunity to talk about the next segment. | ||
| Let's do it. | ||
| This. | ||
| YouTube CEO. | ||
| Users don't like authoritative mainstream media, but we boost them anyway. | ||
| All right, the first thing you have to do if you're listening to this. | ||
| I have to laugh, I have to. | ||
| Like the video, hit the like button, subscribe, notification bell, and then share this. | ||
| Before they shut us down? | ||
| Because no, it's gonna get good. | ||
| I got some, I'm gonna drag some of these lefty journalists who are angry that people can share YouTube links. | ||
| That's amazing. | ||
| Why would they be mad, though? | ||
| Because they can't control the narrative. | ||
| Yeah, dude. | ||
| Oh, right, okay, okay. | ||
| This is nuts, check it out. | ||
| We know this, we know that nobody likes these videos. | ||
| Listen. | ||
| Look up CNN or any one of these, you know CBS or Fox or whatever their videos are boring Nobody wants to watch them. | ||
| They all have thumbs down and they get like 10,000 views if that And then you go to my channel, it's like my video's got like 300, 400,000 views, and I'm like, people are choosing my content when presented. | ||
| They're not choosing CBS, ABC, NBC, et cetera. | ||
| But because YouTube is propping these channels up, they're getting hundreds of millions of views. | ||
| You know how much money that is? | ||
| No. | ||
| Bonkers. | ||
| Lots of money. | ||
| Lots and lots of money. | ||
| Let me think real quick. | ||
| Let's see, I think CNN is probably getting probably a million bucks a month, low estimate. | ||
| From YouTube alone. | ||
| And that's off taking clips from their shows and just uploading them without question. | ||
| Without even trying to engage with YouTube. | ||
| And because YouTube is putting them up. | ||
| Think about how much money YouTube would actually make if they chose to show real independent creators that actually get the engagement. | ||
| They don't care though. | ||
| Because they're scared of these media outlets. | ||
| They're scared of people at BuzzFeed. | ||
| And yes, I'll give Ryan Broderick the credit. | ||
| They're scared of people like Ryan Broderick. | ||
| This dude who... I'm not sure if I've ever met him, but he really has this thing for no matter what happens... | ||
| He's got to call it a problem. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Check this out. | ||
| You may have seen Plandemic. | ||
| I'm not a big fan. | ||
| I'm not a big fan because I think it's an interview with one person who may or may not be correct. | ||
| I understand she's a doctor, so I can only defer to the experts. | ||
| But there's a lot of things they could have done better. | ||
| And, you know, hey, it is what it is. | ||
| But YouTube shouldn't have removed it because they took away any opportunity for debate and challenging of the idea. | ||
| It's the stupidest thing they could have done. | ||
| Check this out. | ||
| Let me show you the Casey Newton tweet first. | ||
| He says, I wrote about how Plandemic went viral. | ||
| Facebook groups linking to YouTube driving tremendous attention in a short amount of | ||
| time. | ||
| And, that's just literally the internet. | ||
| What's the issue? | ||
| Check it out. | ||
| Ryan says, YouTube knows this is a problem. | ||
| In April, I reached out about the absurd traffic that YouTube videos were getting on Facebook, particularly in groups. | ||
| They told me, the video was not recommended by our systems. | ||
| The majority of the traffic and views come from external sites. | ||
| A problem? | ||
| Wow. | ||
| What problem? | ||
| That someone can share a link? | ||
| Last May, last year, YouTube changed the algorithm to strike down channels like mine. | ||
| It used to be that if you watched one of my videos, the autoplay recommendation would show you more of my videos. | ||
| So all of these, I'll do air quotes, I'll just call them activists, got angry. | ||
| Oh no, we're so angry because people with opinions we don't like are getting traffic and we work for BuzzFeed. | ||
| So YouTube changes the algorithm. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Here's what I did. | ||
| I started saying at the beginning of all my videos, if you want to support my work, the best thing you can do is share this video. | ||
| Because the YouTube algorithm is weighted against me, but there's nothing more powerful than a direct share. | ||
| We can go ahead and take this time to say, go ahead and share this video. | ||
| Share this video. | ||
| Tell everyone how awesome we are. | ||
| Word of mouth, baby. | ||
| Please continue, Tim. | ||
| But in all seriousness, Look at what he's saying. | ||
| This is a guy from BuzzFeed. | ||
| He writes these hit pieces. | ||
| He's been wrong on several occasions, and he's literally angry right now that people on Facebook have shared links. | ||
| What's the alternative? | ||
| Let's say YouTube says, okay, we've decided we're going to outright ban everybody. | ||
| What? | ||
| So that YouTube just becomes Netflix? | ||
| So the only people who can post is Netflix? | ||
| Think about what he's saying right here. | ||
| YouTube knows this is a problem. | ||
| What? | ||
| That users can upload videos and share the link? | ||
| Isn't that what YouTube's for? | ||
| Yeah, it's literally what it's for. | ||
| what it's for. Supposed to be. Oh man. But here it's unsurprising that this is what you know | ||
| Oh man. | ||
| BuzzFeed focuses on. He goes on to say since the pandemic started I've written several stories | ||
| focusing on the explosion of Facebook users sharing YouTube links. What? Excuse me? This | ||
| is literally how it used to be. When you When YouTube first started, people would go on Facebook and they would share links. | ||
| Facebook got mad because it was driving traffic off of their site. | ||
| So Facebook started reducing the amount that YouTube links would appear. | ||
| It's countered now because people make groups. | ||
| And so when you're in a group, the post appears to the people in the group. | ||
| He's mad. | ||
| He's mad about it. | ||
| Haha. Short thread. YouTube's attempts to clean up their platform have not stopped and may even, uh, | ||
| attempts to clean up and may even be exacerbating the Facebook, uh, exacerbating the Facebook | ||
| sharing. The search results for COVID content are cleaned up, but on Facebook, things are | ||
| complete free for all. And. | ||
| We can't control it! | ||
| What do we do? | ||
| We're losing our power! | ||
| People on the internet are talking! | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh no! | |
| This is amazing. | ||
| This second, largely unmoderated YouTube via Facebook is especially bad in India, where some of the most watched COVID-19 videos in the world are in Hindi and full of misinformation. | ||
| I don't disagree that disinformation is bad. | ||
| It's a very big problem. | ||
| But guess what? | ||
| Let me ask you, what do you do if like, you know, Billy Bob walks down to the local watering hole and says, hey man, I heard that this thing was orchestrated. | ||
| And the other guy goes, wow. | ||
| Are you going to show up and be like, stop talking? | ||
| Are you going to write a newspaper article? | ||
| Dangerous things are happening where people... | ||
| are talking. | ||
| Apparently you are. | ||
| Whispers. | ||
| Sharing thoughts and ideas. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh no! | |
| I see someone at Bud's feed saying it's full of misinformation and then I know what I know because I've been in this world now seeing the mainstream media spreading misinformation. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Like I'm on Twitter now and I follow people on both sides of the spectrum as far as like political and it's like both sides are just spouting Misinformation that just proves their own points, you know, and this happens, but one side is correct Yeah, and and it switches but doesn't switch | ||
| Yeah, you're right. | ||
| It's mostly on the right, yeah. | ||
| It's like this. | ||
| Well, I mean, there are some environmental things that people on the left are saying that is from truth. | ||
| But that's not an issue of reality. | ||
| That's an issue of opinion. | ||
| Right. | ||
| OK, well, that's what I'm talking about, those kind of things. | ||
| So you can say something like, I do not like Donald Trump removing environmental protections. | ||
| Right, that was one of my things. | ||
| And then a conservative will say, I do like it, it's good for business. | ||
| And you'll say, I don't think so, I think it's bad for everybody, blah blah blah. | ||
| It's an argument, that's fine. | ||
| But three, four, five years of Russia, Jussie Smollett, Covington, these are really high profile examples of how the media just gets everything wrong. | ||
| No, I 100% agree that it's mostly a one-sided thing right now. | ||
| So the easiest way to explain it is, You do have fake news on the right, the 5G conspiracy stuff. | ||
| It's not fair to call that right-wing, to be honest. | ||
| Yeah, I was going to say, isn't that just like random nuts everywhere? | ||
| Right, because, you know, Karen on Facebook saying something like, you know, the towers are coming for us, it's nothing to do with the right, you know what I mean? | ||
| Or the left, yeah, it doesn't matter. | ||
| Yeah, and there are a lot of left-wing crazy conspiracy theories, and recently Chris Hayes of MSNBC in an interview said they're They're out of their gourds, right? | ||
| So conspiracies happen, but I'll tell you what. | ||
| I can't give you the exact number, but it's something like this. | ||
| 6 out of 10 stories that come from the right are correct. | ||
| 4 out of 10 stories that come from the left are correct. | ||
| And so if you're on the left, you have a tendency to be wrong. | ||
| If you're on the right, you have a tendency to be right. | ||
| But I'm not saying political right or left. | ||
| I'm saying culture war, right and left. | ||
| And that's because a lot of moderate and independents are now somehow aligned with the right, simply because there's issues of freedom and free speech and free thought. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You look at, like, Ben Shapiro, who's, like, the joke about Ben Shapiro is, debate me! | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Like, he wants to have the ideas challenged. | ||
| He wants it down. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And the left is, shut them down. | ||
| Cancel their show. | ||
| Cancel their speech. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| We don't want to debate. | ||
| We don't want to get in an opportunity where you can just prove us wrong. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| And so that creates this kind of dynamic. | ||
| And that's exactly what we're seeing right now with BuzzFeed. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Let's read a little bit more. | ||
| He says, That's definitely true about whether it looks good or not. | ||
| YouTube videos has also mirrored the rise in conspiracy theories. | ||
| The 5G Truth or Facebook groups are full of YouTube links that they share with each other | ||
| because the videos look more legitimate than native Facebook content. | ||
| That's definitely true about whether it looks good or not. | ||
| Facebook content is garbage. | ||
| And the video that I got YouTube to comment on was the one that claimed Dr. Fauci is a | ||
| member of the deep state. | ||
| The video was viewed over six million times. | ||
| Its biggest referrals were a QAnon Facebook group, a Christian mommy bloggers page, and a chiropractor. | ||
| Random. | ||
| The Deep State is a specific colloquial reference to members of what they call the permanent government. | ||
| And this is actually what someone in the intelligence community called it. | ||
| These are people who are holdovers, right? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So George W. Bush will be like, I'm going to appoint this guy to the FBI. | ||
| And then Obama comes in and the guy stays. | ||
| And then Trump comes in and the guy stays. | ||
| That's what people refer to as deep state. | ||
| People who have been in government and aren't elected were appointed and just stay. | ||
| Oh, aren't elected. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| So if someone said Dr. Fauci is a member of the Deep State, I'm like, that's just a colloquial way to explain that Dr. Fauci has been in government, in this position, for decades. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That he wasn't elected, he wasn't changed, and that's a big aspect of our government. | ||
| Yeah, it's not sinister. | ||
| Yeah, right. | ||
| But, you know, look, because conspiracy theorists might use similar terminology, it's like, ooh, what do we do? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| YouTube knows Facebook users are sharing YouTube videos at a higher rate. | ||
| And you can see the traffic increase on social metrics sites like BuzzSumo and CrowdTangle, which means Facebook knows this too. | ||
| But each platform is expecting the other one to moderate this. | ||
| It's a mess. | ||
| What do you want to happen on the internet with the internet? | ||
| I don't get it. | ||
| What is he expecting? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| It's so silly sounding. | ||
| Facebook is like, it's a YouTube link. | ||
| So Facebook already censors a lot of content. | ||
| YouTube already took down tons of these videos. | ||
| You know what's going to happen? | ||
| Someone's going to post it to LiveLeak or BitChute and then they'll post it to Facebook. | ||
| You can't stop this. | ||
| It's a core function of what the internet is. | ||
| Hey, sorry, we're connected in the internet. | ||
| You can't stop us. | ||
| We're going to stay connected now. | ||
| Imagine when are they going to get that? | ||
| It feels like they want to go back to like the nineties. | ||
| Kind of, you know, when people were just like, Oh, what's the internet dial up? | ||
| What's that? | ||
| but i i think i read the newspaper i think i think it's more in line with | ||
| trump derangement syndrome okay like so outside of what trump derangement syndrome is | ||
| focused on trump there's a general effect so people who no matter what it is | ||
| always wrong it's always that it must be stopped | ||
| so at first they're like you know alex jones on youtube any saying things we | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| So then YouTube gets rid of him. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Okay, well, we still have to be mad about something, so people are sharing links on Facebook! | ||
| That's crazy. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No! | |
| Yeah, it's crazy. | ||
| Wow, someone shared a link. | ||
| BuzzFeed, how do you think you make money? | ||
| What a good question, Tim. | ||
| People take the links. | ||
| Well, they don't make money from me, that's for sure. | ||
| Right. | ||
| I don't go to BuzzFeed. | ||
| Websites like BuzzFeed, like Vox, like Mike.com, which is like mostly defunct. | ||
| Got started by manipulating Facebook's algorithm, because people would share the stories. | ||
| We've heard about this before. | ||
| Some of these sites used to be right-wing libertarian, because police brutality videos were very, very popular for a long time. | ||
| So the approach was, if you were all about liberty, you could play to the left and the right. | ||
| Most Americans detest racism, so it wasn't a left or right issue. | ||
| So all of these sites first started out kind of like on a libertarian bent, but then they started figuring out that it's older women who share the most. | ||
| So their content slowly started skewing towards moms. | ||
| Do you want me to say it? | ||
|
unidentified
|
What? | |
| Karens? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| Karens. | ||
| Yes. | ||
|
unidentified
|
100%. | |
| You were thinking it. | ||
| I was thinking it too. | ||
| To Karens. | ||
| Yeah, for sure. | ||
| That's absolutely it. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| And so then, more shares, more money. | ||
| So they started hiring people to write these things, and thus we got the wave of critical race theory, social justice stuff, because Facebook was being exploited. | ||
| Here's the funny thing. | ||
| Did I complain about people's ability to share links? | ||
| I think it's a serious problem that Facebook drove this. | ||
| He is. | ||
| Imagine a zombie complaining about zombies. | ||
| You have complained about YouTube quite often on our show. | ||
| For right reasons. | ||
| I've defended YouTube against the lies that YouTube radicalizes people. | ||
| It's not true. | ||
| I've complained about YouTube censoring in favor of these people. | ||
| And pushing CNN and squashing you down. | ||
| I'm not saying you're not justified. | ||
| I'm not talking about them complaining about their problem. | ||
| I'm talking about they were propped up, and now they're mad other people are taking advantage of the same system. | ||
| Oh, BuzzFeed was propped up for a while? | ||
| Yes, they manipulated the Facebook algorithm. | ||
| Well, okay, I should say sites like BuzzFeed, Huffington Post, this is what they were doing. | ||
| He's mad, or I should say he's the remnant of, oh no, we're being displaced. | ||
| The system we were exploiting is taking away from us. | ||
| Right. | ||
| That's what it sounds like. | ||
| Now, you could argue there's some overlap between my complaints with YouTube propping up mainstream media, but it's kind of an inversion. | ||
| CNN doesn't produce content that people actually want to see and engage with, and they actually produce lies. | ||
| So he's arguing that people are producing fake news. | ||
| It's like, bro, this guy's written several fake stories and got called out for it. | ||
| This guy? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| This guy specifically. | ||
| He's crying. | ||
| It just sounds like he's just crying and whining about it. | ||
| So it's like this whole zombie system they function on was pushing shock content that was outrage and generate shares. | ||
| I've explained this before. | ||
| YouTube doesn't generate shares the way Facebook does. | ||
| On Facebook, when a link pops up and it says, you know, dog does backflip. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Yeah, no one does that. | ||
| Maybe, I don't know. | ||
| and all of a sudden that pops up in the feeds of all their friends. | ||
| YouTube doesn't have that function. | ||
| If you click so you can like a video and then if people go to your YouTube page, | ||
| they might see it. | ||
| But nobody does that. | ||
| Yeah, no one does that. | ||
| So maybe, I don't know. | ||
| Some people might do it. | ||
| Facebook. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So I'll clarify. | |
| There is a slight possibility of radicalization through YouTube, but I would argue that it's relatively negligible. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| More so than without YouTube, but not noticeable because there have been several studies showing that on YouTube, you have to choose what you watch. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Facebook is different. | ||
| Facebook, you get like three posts you can see on your monitor. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And so when people go on and they see a video of a cop beating somebody, they click share. | ||
| All of a sudden, everyone just sees it, whether they've chosen it or not. | ||
| So that allows this radicalization to propagate extremely rapidly. | ||
| Then these companies that have made money off exploiting the system get scared that people like me on YouTube call them out. | ||
| So they accuse us of what they do. | ||
| It's projection. | ||
| And you know what the problem is? | ||
| When you get people like me that are willing to be honest about it and not lie and cheat, we're at a severe disadvantage. | ||
| Because BuzzFeed lies all the time. | ||
| They make up fake news. | ||
| But because they have venture capital and institutional power, they can write fake news about me, and then all of a sudden I get all of these... They circle the wagons around each other. | ||
| They defend their venture capital interests. | ||
| None of these people want to lose money. | ||
| So we're the bigger threat because we're independent individuals. | ||
| Taking their views away. | ||
| Going up against the machine. | ||
| So the machine will protect itself. | ||
| And they do it to everybody. | ||
| And the funniest example, I guess, is the President of the United States. | ||
| Someone who is one of the most powerful people in the world. | ||
| But they do it to him too. | ||
| Because it's the same thing. | ||
| He wasn't supposed to be President. | ||
| He's basically taken the power. | ||
| So they're panicking and trying to stop him and crush him in any way possible. | ||
| They are circling the wagons. | ||
| That's the name of the game, man. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| You know what's really funny about BuzzFeed? | ||
| Ben Smith... I don't care. | ||
| Hold on, that's good. | ||
| The editor-in-chief of BuzzFeed News, and BuzzFeed was pumping out all this crazy crap, and I'm like, man, because I've known Ben for a little while, it's not like I've known him very well, and I'm like, why is this happening? | ||
| I thought Ben was better than this. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Ben quits. | ||
| He goes to the New York Times. | ||
| And now he's writing some of the best stuff ever. | ||
| Calling out Joe Biden. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| He couldn't stand what was going on. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| Clearly. | ||
| He had a mandate. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But now he's at the New York Times. | ||
| Yeah, but you're your own boss. | ||
| You still left. | ||
| Right, right, right. | ||
| But he's not. | ||
| You'd think even the New York Times would be more compromised, but he's got presumably more freedom. | ||
| That's cool. | ||
| What's his name? | ||
| Ben Smith. | ||
| Ben Smith. Yeah. And it's like finally some of the New York Times now calling out a lot of what we | ||
| all see. Nice. And it's great. Like notably he called out the Joe Biden defense from the New | ||
| York Times. Yeah. Like we questioned it. Okay. He also called out CNN for faking the Chris Cuomo | ||
| quarantine thing. That's amazing. | ||
| And I was like, wow. | ||
| That whole thing is hilarious. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Bravo. | ||
| And I tweeted this too. | ||
| And this is a big for me. | ||
| I was like, I almost forgot what real journalism looked like. | ||
| I know, right? | ||
| And then, you know, he's like, hey, CNN. | ||
| He said CNN was alighting the Cuomo controversy because Cuomo comes out of his basement like, look, I'm not quarantined anymore. | ||
| That video is so stupid. | ||
| So stilted. | ||
| Oh, man. | ||
| You were caught. | ||
| You were caught like 30 minutes from your house, bro. | ||
| But he tweeted about it and I was like, wow. | ||
| That's great! | ||
| New York Times, because they got a lot of bad people over there, man. | ||
| Yeah, but the New York Times is not the worst. | ||
| I'd give them like a 6 out of 10. | ||
| And they do a lot of good factual reporting. | ||
| Like, they're one of the best. | ||
| The AP, I think, is the best. | ||
| The AP and PBS do a really, really good job. | ||
| The problem with the New York Times is that, editorially, they aren't in the bag for Democrats. | ||
| That means when critical political stories pop up, you can't trust what they write. | ||
| When certain tech stories pop up, you can a little bit, but they're also extremely biased against Google because they | ||
| think they deserve Google's money. | ||
| They're like, Google has displaced news, therefore Google should pay us. | ||
| There's actually in, I'm not sure if it's in France or whatever, there's a suit where, there's an issue. Google | ||
| crawls a news story, right? | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And then if you Google search, there will be a box that appears that gives you the gist of the news story. | ||
| So what happens is, the New York Times will write a story, Google will take the information, and it'll appear on Google.com, where they sell ads. | ||
| And then when you see that, you're like, wow, Donald Trump did a backflip, moving on. | ||
| Whereas in the past, you had to go to the New York Times to get the news, Google is infringing on their market. | ||
| So you gotta be careful about those biases. | ||
| You know, there we go. | ||
| At the same time, you know, Facebook is training its AI to censor hateful memes. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| You know what, man? | ||
| How dare you? | ||
| My memes! | ||
| I think... I said this ten, uh, about ten years ago. | ||
| Ten years ago, we were in, like, the John Dillinger era of bank robbers. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| You know, it was like, the bank robbers happened all over the place, and the gangsters were there, and they were, like, anti-heroes almost. | ||
| Some of them were really villains. | ||
| And we had all these hackers doing this hacker stuff. | ||
| And I was like, this is that age because they're going to lock this down. | ||
| Everything's going to become rigid, authoritarian, and we can see it happening in real time. | ||
| So my prediction would be in 10 years, there's going to be like three websites. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Um, and you're going to have your page, like, you know, like your, your information for your website will just be a Facebook page. | ||
| Facebook, Amazon, and Google. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Well, what would Google do? | ||
| Give you any information you ask it. | ||
| People are gonna have all their information on some social profile. | ||
| No, they're gonna have Neuralink. | ||
| What's the, what's this times this? | ||
| I already know the answer. | ||
| Boom. | ||
| Neuralink. | ||
| Yeah, but I'm talking about websites and how we interact with the internet. | ||
| But that's what I'm saying. | ||
| It won't be the same. | ||
| We're going to have like, think what Neuralink does. | ||
| And that's just the base level. | ||
| Imagine like 30 years afterwards, like we're going to think in some information. | ||
| What kind of information do I need right now? | ||
| Now I know all the information. | ||
| It's like the matrix. | ||
| How do I fly the helicopter? | ||
| Now I know how to fly it. | ||
| In 10 years, I doubt it. | ||
| Well, no, no, I'm not saying in 10 years. | ||
| I'm saying once Neuralink becomes a normal thing, and then think 10, 30 years after that, you know? | ||
| I'm not convinced. | ||
| 10 or 15 years ago, they were talking about those RFID chips you can get under your skin, and people were getting them, and they'd wave their hand in front of a door, and the door would open, and people still don't get them. | ||
| It's like, I remember Alex Jones was like, they're getting the chips, Verichips coming, and then it never did. | ||
| Because, you get a phone. | ||
| I go to my hotel, I wiggle my phone in front of the door, the door opens. | ||
| We don't need implants in that capacity. | ||
| I think Neuralink, maybe, but the issue is, humans have a really difficult time implanting things. | ||
| Some people do it. | ||
| Most people won't do it. | ||
| Did you know that you can give yourself electro sense? | ||
| Um, or whatever, whatever it's called, um, electro perception. | ||
| I'm not sure what it's, what's called. | ||
| No, what is it? | ||
| You can take a neodymium magnet and embed it in your fingertips. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And then you can feel electrical waves. | ||
| Very interesting. | ||
| It gives you the ability to detect electrical and EMF electromagnetic fields. | ||
| But for what purpose though? | ||
| To stay away from it? | ||
| It's an extra sense, bro. | ||
| You could put your hand on a wall and feel where the, where the power cables are. | ||
| Interesting. | ||
| Yeah, it's like a platypus or an echidna. | ||
| That colorblind guy that implanted this thing that he can smell colors now. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What? | |
| You ever see this? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| He actually has an implant that comes out like a little alien device that's connected to his brain and he can like smell colors or something. | ||
| That's weird. | ||
| Wouldn't you want the ability to sense electrical fields? | ||
| Might be useful. | ||
| It's interesting. | ||
| Yeah, I don't know. | ||
| It is an interesting thought. | ||
| If you're looking to mount stuff in walls or you're looking for where the line is coming in, you just hold your hand over and you're like, oh, there's the power cable. | ||
| And then you know exactly where it is. | ||
| Or you can tell if a wire is live or not. | ||
| You'll be like, whoa, that's live. | ||
| I can't touch it. | ||
| So a lot of people have done this because it's really cool. | ||
| You can feel like you'll put your hand and be like, wow. | ||
| Like, it's a sense, something you've never experienced before. | ||
| I'm curious as to what the perception is. | ||
| So the way it works is that your fingertips are very sensitive, and so putting a magnet under the skin, when the magnet comes in contact with the wave, it starts putting pressure and vibrating a little bit, and it puts pressure on your nerve. | ||
| So what I've read, and I've never done it, I know some people who have, is that it's not like touch. | ||
| It's something different. | ||
| It's like you can feel electricity. | ||
| It's weird. | ||
| Interesting. | ||
| So people know this, they don't do it. | ||
| So you said that most people have a problem with implants. | ||
| Have you seen that Black Mirror episode where they have the contacts that record your entire life and they can go back to any and watch anything? | ||
| Wouldn't that be like the computer of the future then or the cell phone of the future? | ||
| I don't think so. | ||
| No. | ||
| No, because it's hard to use. | ||
| It's not an implant. | ||
| They just pop it in and like, I don't know, they figure it out so that it allows oxygen to flow through so you don't have to take it out. | ||
| You just leave it in and you just have your cell phone just in your eyeball. | ||
| So right now, contact lenses have the problem of permeability. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| So that's why you gotta take them out. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah. | |
| So for those that aren't familiar with... It cuts the oxygen off from your eyeball. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| For those that aren't familiar with lenses, the capillaries can grow over your eyes because your eyes are struggling to get oxygen to, you know. | ||
| So... They need to breathe! | ||
| Yeah, your eyes gotta breathe. | ||
| Maybe... They do. | ||
| Maybe... Odd thing, but... There's a way they can do it that it's like... But, you know, for now... I know we're talking about what the argument is in the future. | ||
| For now, it's like, yeah, we'd have to solve that problem. | ||
| Let's say we did. | ||
| I wonder if it's still just a hassle. | ||
| I got my phone right here, dude. | ||
| You know what's really funny? | ||
| You know in Futurama when Leela's wearing the wristband with the screen on it? | ||
| And there's also a video game called Commander Keen. | ||
| You know Commander Keen? | ||
| He wore a wrist computer as well. | ||
| Sure. I remember when I was little I was like, man, that's the future. | ||
| Brisk computers. | ||
| And then I got a phone and I'm like, no one is ever going to put that on their wrist. | ||
| That makes no sense. | ||
| But think about what a contact phone would give you the ability to. | ||
| Number one, you'd probably be able to just think. | ||
| They're already doing this where you can think things and text comes up or whatever. | ||
| You tell it whatever. | ||
| So if you had it in your eyeball, you can watch whatever you want to watch. | ||
| You know, it's just there. | ||
| It projects it. | ||
| Where to do that? | ||
| Boom. | ||
|
unidentified
|
3D. | |
| Virtual reality. | ||
| Like you were saying, like, man, if Neuralink, I just plug into... Oh, we're done working. | ||
| Skyrim. | ||
| Boom. | ||
| And you're playing Skyrim, you know? | ||
| But if you have contacts that actually you are actually seeing... Oh, I don't know. | ||
| Who knows? | ||
| I don't know. I'm just great sense of touch interact with your brain who knows so the the neural link has very very | ||
| fine wires that they have to find a human hair right so | ||
| Maybe in the future what one of the challenges rejection I'm sure Elon Musk is smart enough to know this better than I do, so I'll defer to him. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| But what do we do, like when you're one, they put the Neuralink implant and you get like a port on your neck and you can like plug in? | ||
| A USB port? | ||
| Or it could be wireless. | ||
| It's like a Wi-Fi. | ||
| That's what I would assume. | ||
| Wi-Fi antennas are tiny, but what powers it? | ||
| Theoretically, aren't we electrical beings? | ||
| Like, don't we have, I mean, couldn't we figure out a way that we power it? | ||
| The radio waves themselves might be able to give it enough power to transmit signals, because signals are particularly weak relative to, like, an actual electronic device. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Maybe it's that simple, you know? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Yeah, who knows? | ||
| We've entertained the idea of implants. | ||
| Maybe the problem is their use factor wasn't enough. | ||
| Like the RFID chips opening a door. | ||
| Who cares? | ||
| Yeah, who cares? | ||
| It's not worth getting this thing. | ||
| And they have this big needle. | ||
| They put it in and then they deposit it. | ||
| It was silly. | ||
| But Neuralink would be substantially more beneficial. | ||
| You know what I think it might be, actually? | ||
| They're talking about people who have spinal injuries. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| We might see this start where someone who's paraplegic gets the implant and then they get an electrode at the other part of the spine after the break. | ||
| Nice. | ||
| So the signal can jump wirelessly. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Dope. | |
| I never even thought about that. | ||
| That's great. | ||
| And then they're healed. | ||
| They can get up and walk around like normal. | ||
| Dope. | ||
| We'll have to relearn probably. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But then the signal can travel because we've created, you know, this jump. | ||
| A part of me thinks that he is doing this because he's afraid of AI and wants to figure out a way to make us Hasn't he said that? | ||
| Part of AI? | ||
| He said that. | ||
| Oh, he has said that. | ||
| I'm pretty sure he said that, right? | ||
| Yeah, I think he said that. | ||
| I don't know if he said exactly that. | ||
| He said it on Joe Rogan the first time, I thought. | ||
| What, that he wants to make us part of AI? | ||
| He doesn't think AI is good. | ||
| If we're integrated with it. | ||
| No, I know he's afraid of AI, but it's like, Neuralink makes us part of it. | ||
| I'm pretty sure that's his argument. | ||
| Oh, cool. | ||
| Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's what he said. | ||
| I didn't see his Joe Rogan article. | ||
| If we're integrated with it, there's no war. | ||
| There's no Terminator scenario if we are with the AI as one. | ||
| If we are the AI. | ||
| Interesting. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Scary. | ||
| I don't know, man. | ||
| I mean, I guess it would kind of be good. | ||
| You're talking, you know, you're, you're, you're talking like in the early stages, you're at Thanksgiving with your family and you've got that one really dumb uncle or whatever. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And he's like, I don't know about that. | ||
| And it's like, check. | ||
| And he goes, wow, you were right. | ||
| Hmm. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Or it's like no arguments ever again. | ||
| And that's what the future of the internet is. | ||
| Go ahead and check. | ||
| There would still be opinions though. | ||
| I just checked. | ||
| I just checked all that facts, all the facts on that. | ||
| But opinions wouldn't change based on that because that's about your... You're right. | ||
| You're right. | ||
| The opinions wouldn't change. | ||
| Right. | ||
| There would still be ideas out there. | ||
| Well, you're right that Donald Trump did say that, but I don't think it's a big deal. | ||
| And then they would argue, what do you mean you don't think it's a big deal? | ||
| Of course it's a big deal. | ||
| Yeah, that's your perspective. | ||
| Yep. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| And that wouldn't change. | ||
| Based on how you grew up or whatever. | ||
| But at least we'd have the facts together. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So when you say something like, Obamagate! | ||
| And they go, that's a debunked conspiracy theory. | ||
| You're like, nope. | ||
| Like, no it's not. | ||
| But look, let's be honest, man. | ||
| We can pull up on our phones. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| People still don't want to do it. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You know what I do a lot when people are like, when I'm talking to somebody and they're like arguing with me? | ||
| I'll just be like, I'll just pull up on my phone and I will say nothing. | ||
| And I'll be like, here you go. | ||
| And they'll be like, well, I don't know if I believe that. | ||
| I'm like, I don't care if you believe it or not, whatever. | ||
| I'm done. | ||
| If you're not going to believe it. | ||
| That's why they think it. | ||
| If sources don't work for you, then I don't know what the point of talking to you is. | ||

| Tim, thought about transferring some of your trophies from your old sets walls to this one. | ||
| No, no, we actually we took them down. | ||
| Um, it's actually in the same space, but, uh, it's, it's a, it's a different, I don't know. | ||
| Different world. | ||
| One thing I do want to do is I want to get some, like, writing or some kind of art. | ||
| We've talked about guitars, maybe some, maybe some skateboards with arts on them, art on it or something. | ||
| Yeah, the problem is, this is, these are actually, I mean, we're in a completely new room, but these are still the same walls. | ||
| I actually built them on, um, another panel that, so they're, they're actually... They're removable. | ||
| There's six of them, five of them. | ||
| Yeah, so we could take these, move them around, switch them around if we want to, but they don't hold weight. | ||
| So we can't actually hang anything on them. | ||
| And the wood ones are really heavy. | ||
| They are really heavy, actually, yeah, because that's actually flooring. | ||
| Looks cool, though. | ||
| Yeah, came out, came out well. | ||
| Keep it clean. | ||
| Yeah, the way I had it designed before was kind of something I threw up in my room and didn't really make as much sense for like a... We're up in the production value. | ||
| But I do think we could use some kind of definition. | ||
| At least in some capacity. | ||
| Skateboard. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Art. | |
| Something. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Maybe one day. | |
| I like the guitar. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| I already pre-ordered it. | ||
| I like the guitar mark G says be honest Tim You canceled last night's stream because you were too hyped | ||
| for the Tony Hawk pro skater one and two trailer that came out yesterday | ||
| I already pre-ordered it No yesterday was just like a brutal news day where the news | ||
| was like It was horrible. | ||
| I came down, I'm like, hey, you guys ready to get going on the, what are we going to talk about? | ||
| And they're like, my eyes were bloodshot, and I was like, what? | ||
|
unidentified

No. | |
| Crawling was horrible. | ||

| Most certainly. | ||
| It's the hair, yes. | ||

| CNN needs to get... This is the problem. | ||
| Stefan Tirol says CNN calls Obamagate a conspiracy theory. | ||
| Meanwhile they unironically pelted Russiagate and consider Greta Thunberg an expert in the | ||
| coronavirus. | ||
| CNN needs to get, this is the problem. | ||
| CNN needs to go away. | ||
| But YouTube's propping them up. | ||
| Maybe YouTube needs to go away, too. | ||
| Can I set it under my breath? | ||
| Because that's our platform. | ||
| No, because other platforms exist, too. | ||
| The problem is that YouTube has strangled them out of the market. | ||
| Oh, okay. | ||
| That's a good point. | ||
| GM says, Hey Tim, been following since Timcast IRL began. | ||

| Salon Blue says Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1 and 2 remaster September 4th with original soundtrack for the most part. | ||
| Also, BuzzFeed is pulling back from politics after cuts. | ||
| Really? | ||
| Yeah, right. | ||
| I thought they had a bunch of cuts. | ||
| Sure they are. | ||
| But it's because they're going to do rage bait culture war crap. | ||
| And yell at the crowds. | ||
| And it seems like they're losing their hold on their fame or notoriety, you know? | ||
| BuzzFeed. | ||
| Well, Ben Smith quit. | ||

| Artemis Fowl says, Tim Pool, I believe you need to rein in your bias when it comes to the Arbery shooting case. | ||
| You keep implying the men are murderers. | ||
| Stop using deserve. | ||
| Shootings are justified, not deserved. | ||
| I keep implying the men are murderers? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wait, what? | |
| You know what? | ||
| And that story is so confusing. | ||
| Conservatives are all on... I got tagged in this red state debunk because I did a video. | ||
| There was a local news report that said the footage appeared to show Arbery several times at night. | ||
| According to one Screen filmed from a cell phone video that someone sent me. | ||
| ABC claimed that the family denied it. | ||
| I couldn't find the article anywhere. | ||
| I couldn't find anyone asserting it. | ||
| I couldn't find anything countering the point made by the local journalists who pointed out the video. | ||
| But, there's a, uh, RedState said that, they were the one source I found saying that the man is different. | ||
| But I'm like, you know what man, we'll, I gotta wait for more information on this one, but I did put it in. | ||
| That's the thing, I don't know anything about it. | ||
| Everything I'm seeing, as I said earlier, it's like I see people over here and people over here spouting whatever, you know, information they've heard. | ||
| Bias. | ||
| But it's like, everything I'm looking at isn't real information. | ||
| It's like what they took and like, Yeah, that must be true So I'm gonna yell it to the sky and it's like the weirdest thing is the conservatives defending that I don't know any truth It's totally normal to go into a construction site all the time like I mean, I worked construction and that's not true at all, right? | ||
| If anybody in the trades saw someone that they didn't know, because all the electricians, they know all the HVAC guys, they all know each other, so it's like if they close down a construction site and someone's in there that they don't know, they know that you're not supposed to be there. | ||
| You're probably looking for copper, looking for tools that were left out. | ||
| Copper was a big thing. | ||
| That's shady. | ||
| How are they talking like it's a normal thing? | ||
| Who's saying that it's normal to go to a construction site? | ||
| There was a construction site in Chicago and a bunch of skateboarders looted it for tons of building materials. | ||
| That's pretty much what happened. | ||
| They were building ramps and stuff with it. | ||
| They were like, free stuff! | ||
| And they went in. | ||
| And I'm like, that's why it's Chicago. | ||
| Maybe it's an urban... I don't know. | ||
| Anyway, the point I was making before about the story is that, I did a ton of searches on this, people are sharing a video where someone took their phone and filmed their TV, and then you hear someone say, the family denies this man, and I'm like, bro, I can't use that as a source. | ||
| That's not enough. | ||
| I have a local CBS affiliate straight up saying, there's footage uncovered that appears to show the man, and I'm like, that's what I went off of. | ||
| So, RedState apparently has, you know, put this out. | ||
| RedState tends to be, and I mean no disrespect, a conservative commentary website. | ||
| So I took it into consideration. | ||
| I added a note to the video that it appears to be it might not. | ||
| But until we have a bigger update on, you know, and we might not ever know, it's like, bro, it's a rock and a hard place for me because so many people are biased in trying to influence my coverage on this. | ||
| If I came out and said, oh, I guess it's not him, and I have no source for it, then I'm in an equally bad position where I'm gonna get a ton of people criticizing me for, you know what I mean? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So it's difficult, you know? | ||
| I mean, I'm just like, we should just not touch it, because we don't know enough truth. | ||
| Yeah, we gotta wait for a little bit. | ||
| Right, and that's what I've been saying the whole time. | ||
| Right. | ||
| The gist of it is... We don't know enough. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Steven says, Adam, do a Jesus pose for us. | ||
| How does Jesus pose? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I think that's not Jesus. | ||
| I don't care. | ||
| That's the soy Jesus. | ||
| That's the soy version. | ||
| I don't know Jesus. | ||
| I'm not religious. | ||
| Antonio says, I'm glad you guys are back. | ||

| Coyle says, Tim, your Ben Shapiro the other night was epic. | ||
| Please give us more. | ||
| Well, it's gotta come out naturally. | ||
| That's right, you can't force it. | ||
| Mad people were hitting me up like, dude, he nailed Ben Shapiro. | ||
| I'm like, alright, alright. | ||
| He's good at impressions. | ||
| Sometimes. | ||
| Now you're good. | ||
| Wow, that would be insane. | ||
| That'd be so fun. | ||
| I mean, I'd be down to be on it, but I feel like I'm outclassed by all of them. | ||
| JRE Beyond E Thuner, Thundercast. | ||
| Wow, that would be insane. | ||
| That'd be so fun. | ||
| I mean, I'd be down to be on it, but I feel like I'm outclassed by all of them. | ||
| I don't know, I'd be like, why would I be on that? | ||
| That's so much fun. | ||
| It would be really loud in that room. | ||
| And I'd be sitting there like, no, it would be Alex. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, it'd be. | |
| It's true. | ||
| His volume's always at 11. | ||
| You know what's crazy about Alex Jones, man? | ||
| I was watching a video of him from like the late 90s. | ||
| OK. | ||
| She was a normal guy. | ||
| Oh, really? | ||
| Yeah, it was like some clip where someone asked him questions. | ||
| No, no, this was from the early 2000s. | ||
| Someone asked him about 9-11. | ||
| And he was like, the caller calls in and then says something like, how could you believe any of this stuff? | ||
| And his response was like, listen, I got the Associated Press, and I got a report here that says, and he starts naming people, and he's like, now, let me ask you, like, what do you think about that news report? | ||
| Because right there it says, and I'm like, that seems pretty average. | ||
| That sounds like he's actually looking at the news and asking questions. | ||
| Now you turn on his stuff and he's like, You know, I don't know. | ||
| I will eat my neighbors. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I will eat my neighbors. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I understand the point he was making, but he really is very, very different. | ||
| Well, it's almost like he figured out that crazy stuff gets more hits. | ||
| Like other people have figured out? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It seems to be kind of a thing nowadays. | ||
| Interesting. | ||
| Crazy stuff gets shared more. | ||
| I will eat my neighbors. | ||
| Like, wow. | ||
| I would never eat human. | ||
| Yeah, he said that full well knowing that it was going to be everywhere. | ||
| And I think it's because when they banned him, he became like, he needs to find a way to get into the mainstream again to get that attention, to get that press. | ||
| Boom. | ||
| Eat his neighbors. | ||
| But it's crazy, like somebody made a meme about this, where it showed him like one of his earliest TV show, like public access things. | ||
| And it was like a normal question. | ||
| And it's like the meme, the meme was literally just showing his progression. | ||
| And it was like, the government is lying to us and we need to challenge the authority. | ||
| The next one was like, the government is staging terror attacks against its own people. | ||
| The next one is, the government is actually alien lizard people. | ||
| And the last one was like, 5G, COVID, aliens, interdimensional beings, cell phone towers. | ||
| It's just been like a, it's gone nuts. | ||
| Crazy. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Let's read more. | ||
| Toolbox says, I ruined it for you? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Why? | ||
| Yeah, you ruined it for me. | ||
| How's that? | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Just straight ruined it for me, bro. | ||
| Oh no, how? | ||
| Smash Brothers? | ||
| you play on stream sometime Adam Lydia and and I'm versus 10 so I | ||
| In smash brothers he ruined it for me. I ruined it for you. | ||
| Yeah, why yeah, you ruined it for me How's that right just straight ruined it for me bro? How | ||
| smash brothers? Yeah, I'll explain He's so good | ||
| That when I try to play over we go this camera Okay. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| When I try to play, I tried a few times, he wrecked me. | ||
| It was just, you know, going up against a pro. | ||
| You're a pro. | ||
| No way, dude. | ||
| You're a pro, dude. | ||
| Absolutely not. | ||
| Yeah, sure, you're not getting paid by Nintendo or anything. | ||
| No, no, no, no, dude. | ||
| Not on a team. | ||
| No way. | ||
| Compared to me, you were? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You gotta watch these pro Smash Bros videos. | ||
| Anyway, to answer, he specifically said Atomcast, so. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| This is for me here. | ||
| I don't play Smash Bros. | ||
| I mean, I don't... I stopped playing Nintendo stuff. | ||
| The last thing I got was like 3DS. | ||
| And all I did was get a bunch of nostalgic games that I used to play on my, you know, old Game Boy. | ||
| But I would play it, but I just... PvP games in general tend to get boring for me. | ||
| I like multiplayer games, going out and doing stuff as a co-op. | ||
| And that's all it is, just beating each other up over and over and over again. | ||
| I can't do those games. | ||
| I just am so over it. | ||
| You gotta watch Pro Smash Bros. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It is some of the most ridiculous... Pro Smash Bros. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's got a good flow. | ||
| It's crazy. | ||
| So I used to, in Melee, I played Marth. | ||
| And, uh, when they, then, you know, I've typically preferred playing Marth, but I think they, like, he's not that good anymore, so I play Lucina. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Fox, uh, Fox, man, I go, I go nuts. | ||
| I think I played Cloud, didn't I? | ||
| Wasn't Cloud a- Yeah, probably, yeah, Cloud's in there, yeah. | ||
| Yeah, and he's pretty good, right? | ||
| Mmm. | ||
| Oh, is it- I think he's like- Is it Zelda who's pretty good? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| I don't know, I picked some character, you're like, oh, they're pretty good. | ||
| I can't remember. | ||
| I thought it was Cloud. | ||
| Maybe- I saw Cloud, I'm like, yes. | ||
| Maybe Sheik or something. | ||
| Cloud is, you know... Powerful, right? | ||
| Is that what you're, maybe that's what you're saying? | ||
| Kind of. | ||
| If two people who've never played before, one person picks Cloud and one person picks, like, I don't know, Mario. | ||
| Anything else? | ||
| Cloud's really good for someone who's never played, but Cloud's got a really bad recovery. | ||
| Oh, okay. | ||
| So it depends on the map you're playing. | ||
| I typically like to play in just straight up, not Battlefield, Omega mode, so basically Final Destination. | ||
| Yeah, okay. | ||
| And just a flat Battlefield. | ||
| But Cloud's got a really weak recovery. | ||
| So he's got really good recovery, but he's not one of the top. | ||
| I think Lucina is in the top tier, but it depends. | ||
| They change it sometimes. | ||
| So, you know, from playing Marth, I prefer Lucina, but with Fox, Fox is kind of weak, but man, I can lock people down like crazy. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Just like, zoop, zoop, zoop, zoop, zoop, zoop. | |
| Just totally. | ||
| And then nobody wants to play anymore, so I just, I don't play. | ||
| But definitely not pro, man. | ||
| I am not good at that game. | ||
| I'm like someone who's played it for a long time, but if I played any pro, it'd be done in 30 seconds and I'd be like, Yeah, would not be fun. | ||

| I mean, I just watch reruns of Family Guy. | ||
| seen documentary that is going to be released soon. And he bets they will imply that Trump | ||

| is right now as we go into the election. I can tell you this. I won't be watching that. | ||
| I mean, I just watch reruns of Family Guy. I like documentaries, but you know. Yeah, | ||

| You can spread your stance out more. | ||
| I would suggest, you know, yeah, it is easier. | ||
| If you want to skateboard, like trick skateboarding, like the classic skateboarding, don't ever get a longboard. | ||
| You're gonna get used to the board that you're you're riding and it's better to Get one board and stick with it because you'll just become better on that board So if you're planning on just skating around distance wise just you know scooting around the neighborhood then get a long boards a lot easier you can get like a hybrid board that's bigger, but you can still trick it and They're out there. | ||
| They exist. | ||
| Dude, I've seen videos of people doing hybrid boards. | ||
| It's built like a short board, but it's a long board. | ||
| Yeah, I've got one. | ||
| Arbor has one. | ||
| It's called the Shakedown, and it's great. | ||
| It's a great board. | ||
| Get some handrails on that thing. | ||
| It's massive. | ||
| You feel like a little kid again. | ||
| Yeah, they're huge. | ||
| It feels huge, yeah. | ||
| But they're great. | ||
| Soft wheels. | ||
| Here it comes. | ||
| Luke says Tim, with all the quote, wrongs you said today, reminds me of the orange man, just admit it and vote for Trump. | ||
| Well, hold on. | ||
| I keep trying. | ||
| Hold up. | ||
| Lydia, are you going to vote for Trump? | ||
| I have not decided who I'm going to vote for, and the only thing I've decided is that whoever I vote for, nobody else is going to know. | ||
| You're not going to tell anybody if you vote for anybody? | ||
| Nope. | ||
| I won't tell anybody even if I don't vote at all. | ||
| And you said you would vote for Trump. | ||
| Yeah, I would. | ||
| Yeah? | ||
| Yeah, I don't like what the Democrats are doing right now. | ||
| That's a good point. | ||
| I don't like Biden at all. | ||
| I want to understand what's happening, and I don't understand what he's saying. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's a good point. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| they're gonna switch him out with someone that didn't earn their place there and that | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| that's a good point not okay with me at all that's not what we're about that's probably | ||
| the best point I've heard about why not to support any Democrat if they switch out Joe | ||
| Biden for Cuomo they have knifed Bernie in the back yeah the entire democracy like oh | ||
| no we're just gonna put this person in because we think he has a chance it's like what we | ||
| think he has a chance like who's no no no this is NC mm-hmm if if if there was ever | ||
| a reason to get me to vote for Trump the Democrats have found it yeah | ||
| Because I hate the idea of voting for the lesser of two evils, but to allow them to continue to subvert the democratic process, they cannot be allowed to get away with what they've done with Russiagate, with Adam Schiff's lying. | ||
| They can't. | ||
| And we learn more and more every day. | ||
| Like now Joe Biden is implicated in the unmasking. | ||
| He lied on TV about whether he knew about it. | ||
| It's ridiculous. | ||
| So is it a punishment vote? | ||
| I don't have TDS, right? | ||
| I don't think Donald Trump is the end of the world or some kind of like Antichrist or anything. | ||
| I think he's another guy, he's another president. | ||
| He's actually a lot better than some of the other presidents we have, but I personally, he would not be my choice. | ||
| However, do I have to do a vote of... Actually, I don't even think it's necessarily fair to call Trump one of the evils. | ||
| He's just not somebody I ultimately agree with on certain policy issues. | ||
| But for the most part, the Democrats haven't made any good arguments as to why I shouldn't agree with him on China tariffs, the building the wall, or anything like this. | ||
| So it leaves me in a position where I'm like, Well, I didn't used to, you know, be on board with— Well, I'm not on board with more conservative, you know, positions, probably like about taxing, social issues, maybe, you know, pro-life, pro-choice kind of stuff. | ||
| But for the most part, I think because the Democrats have gone so far off the rails, the conservatives have now built a coalition where you actually have pro-LGBT, pro-social issues. | ||
| You've got people like Ariel Scarcella, who is Not necessarily conservative, but you have the walk away campaign where you actually have people who are like what the liberals are now in the Trump camp. | ||
| So the issue I guess for me is for the most part is, I've already said over and over again, it's been easier than ever to consider Trump as the right choice for one reason. | ||
| You're just teasing everybody now. | ||
| Not even. | ||
| It's because people want me to wave a flag and I'm not going to do it. | ||
| I never would. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| I mean, I'm not gonna go out and, like, put a Trump sign anywhere. | ||
| I mean, figuratively. | ||
| It's like, we need the economy back, and you made a good point. | ||
| He did a great job bringing it up. | ||
| That's the one issue. | ||
| Why wouldn't he do another good job instead of some random person that's gonna come in and have to relearn everything? | ||
| Or not necessarily relearn, but, you know. | ||
| For three years. | ||
| The economy was improving and better than ever. | ||
| And now, because this virus hit, and it's not Trump's fault, it's the governors who wanted everything shut down. | ||
| It's the governors Trump has no power over. | ||
| That's the Tenth Amendment. | ||
| So who better to fix things than the guy who already proved that he could make the economy work? | ||
| That's the best argument possible, which, like I said in several videos, why it's easier than ever and why I'm leaning towards absolutely voting for him. | ||
| And more importantly, I said this, I think I said it today, The scary thing about... I will never vote for a Democrat. | ||
| At least for the time being. | ||
| Maybe in a few years. | ||
| And the reason is, you look at what they did with their power. | ||
| They lied to the American people. | ||
| They manipulated people. | ||
| They're trying to put in insane policies that have gone so far to the left, there's no cohesive strategy anymore. | ||
| And so if you actually believe in the policy of the Democrats from like the year 2010, the year 2000, the Republicans have won all those people over. | ||
| That's what it seems like, yeah. | ||
| So independents are fairly split, but they do lean by about four points according to one of the most recent polls in favor of Trump. | ||
| And the Democrats, according to Gallup, we've now seen a decrease in the amount of people identifying as liberal and an increase in the amount of people identifying as conservative. | ||
| I have no problem saying, like, look, Joe Rogan came out and said he'd rather vote for Trump over Biden. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| I completely agree. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| I don't know what's going to happen come November. | ||
| So, like I said, I lean towards that. | ||
| It's been easier than ever to say. | ||
| But I'm not the kind of person. | ||
| I'm the milquetoast fence-sitter. | ||
| You will know when something happens where I'm like, it must be done. | ||
| But there's still third parties. | ||
| There's still things to talk about. | ||
| And I hate voting for someone I don't want to vote for simply because I really don't like the other party. | ||
| I agree with you on that. | ||
| The other issue is, the Republicans need to do something about Mitch McConnell, people like Lindsey Graham. | ||
| There are a lot of Republicans who have sat on their hands and done nothing, and as far as I can tell, are probably part of the establishment problem that aren't being, you know, so we'll see what happens. | ||
| That I definitely agree with. | ||
| But the other issue too is like, everything's changing. | ||
| The Republicans right now, the majority of them, like the people I know that are Trump supporters, I'm like, bro, you were liberal. | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
| Like, there are people I know... Hi. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| Right, exactly. | ||
| And it's crazy, you know, I don't want to name anybody because it should be up to them, but there's some people I'm talking to who are, like, as lefty as they come, and they're like, I don't know if I've become conservative or the left has gone nuts, and I'm like, does it matter? | ||
| Yeah, the left went nuts. | ||
| That's what happened. | ||
| But then you end up with people who are regular, liberal-minded people who are now like, my only option is Trump, you know? | ||
| The problem I have is, like, people don't seem to realize Right, okay. | ||
| really is very, very different in terms of the professionalism, the character, and to | ||
| be honest, the stability of the office. | ||
| But boy was Obama bad. | ||
| Boy was Obama really bad. | ||
| And so was Bush. | ||
| Trump is nowhere near as bad as they were. | ||
| Trump's got a lot of problems. | ||
| He's increased drone strikes, the foreign policy stuff I've always been really mad about. | ||
| But it's like Joe Biden would bring back the failures of the Obama administration. | ||
| See, I don't know. | ||
| I wasn't political pretty much my whole life. | ||
| I was just to kind of live my own way. | ||
| And these past three months, it's been nothing but politics. | ||
| We were supposed to do a show about anything but politics. | ||
| And sure enough, now we're doing this. | ||
| It's because of the lockdown, man. | ||
| Yeah, right, of course. | ||
| I know. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Yeah, wow. | ||
| Sonic the Hedgehog, dude, that was awesome. | ||
| And then it's like, now the front page of every news story is like nothing but the fight over lockdown. | ||
| I know. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Yeah, wow. | ||
| So, you know what, man? | ||
| The way they rigged it against Yang, like, you know. | ||
| They rigged it against Yang, is that true? | ||
| I told you. | ||
| Oh, totally. | ||
| They turned his microphone off. | ||
| We talked about that. | ||
| What Donald Trump would do to him. | ||
| So it's almost like I can definitely feel the rage where I would love to give them comeuppance by seeing Trump win again. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But I'm very, very strict for myself on like, I want to vote for someone because I'm like, this is the best person for the job. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I've already said it a million times. | ||
| Trump right now, there's no one better. | ||
| In terms of the economy, that's what I mean. | ||
| There's a bunch of issues in foreign policy that I think they're better people. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Notably Tulsi. | ||
| Right, but she's not in the running. | ||
| She's not. | ||
| But it's not even that. | ||
| I could vote for her if I want to. | ||
| What if Biden chose Tulsi as his VP? | ||
| Nah, Biden is the Obama administration. | ||
| The Obama administration blooped kids. | ||
| So there's no way you would vote for Biden? | ||
| Never. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| No way. | ||
| First of all, the dude's nuts, right? | ||
| I can agree with that. | ||
| That's funny. | ||
| I think one of the biggest problems we have is that a lot of the fighting in this country comes down to how we waste resources on, like, this weird conflict in these foreign countries. | ||
| And, you know, it is really, really difficult. | ||
| We waste a lot more resources than on everything, just as simple being humans. | ||
| That's a huge problem that we have. | ||
| I think there's probably better ways to deal with the Middle East situation, the conflict with China. | ||
| So I'll tell you what, man. | ||
| Man, it really is tough because character really does matter. | ||
| And I've said this over and over again. | ||
| The Democrats found someone that said very similar things to Trump in regards to policy ideas, securing our borders, bolstering our economy, dealing with the threat of China. | ||
| And he didn't, you know, he wasn't this bombastic entertainer type who was like, you know, just constantly... He wasn't Trump. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| He probably went on a landslide. | ||
| So the question is, does Trump's character really matter that much? | ||
| And I don't think... Probably. | ||
| No, I mean, kind of, but not enough. | ||
| So right now, I would say, we'll see what happens. | ||
| I think based on the pandemic, Trump is the best choice. | ||
| Name any other politician in the running who's got the economic experience and the proof that they've fixed the economy. | ||
| I have no idea. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| You can hate Trump all you want. | ||
| And I got issues with the way he behaves. | ||
| I think he's funny. | ||
| He's a great entertainer. | ||
| He is. | ||
| But it comes to the economy. | ||
| And I think there's a lot of people who are scared to admit it. | ||
| I mentioned this before, I saw a guy at the airport who said, I wouldn't invite him to my house for dinner, but the money's good. | ||
| And I think a lot of these people are secret Trump voters. | ||
| They don't want to admit that they're willing to pick someone they personally don't like because they get good money from the economy. | ||
| Lucky fix of the economy. | ||
| For me, it's simple. | ||
| The economy isn't some nebulous system of making rich people and getting people cash so they can laugh and go party. | ||
| It's so that we can make the machine work, like a well-oiled machine. | ||
| And under Trump, we had the best numbers of our lives, according to Jim Cramer. | ||
| He was also right about the problem of manufacturing with China, and now that the pandemic hit, it's like, listen, the left has been wrong on way too many things. | ||
| They've made no arguments against Trump's policies. | ||
| I mean, I'm being hyperbolic. | ||
| They've made very few. | ||
| A little. | ||
| Very, very few arguments. | ||
| They call him a bigot. | ||
| They call him a racist. | ||
| They call him far-right. | ||
| None of it makes sense. | ||
| And so I'm asking, like, they're not going to offer me anything. | ||
| And I think that's the problem. | ||
| I think you've got to accept that Trump is a potty mouth who's a mean guy. | ||
| His own words. | ||
| But man, is he better than... He owns up to it. | ||
| ...than what else you get. | ||
| So one of the problems with Biden, the reason why I would never vote for him, Imagine if Trump did that? | ||
| says he had a scandal-free presidency. | ||
| Barack Obama killed a 16-year-old American. | ||
| He killed a bunch of American citizens without charge or trial. | ||
| You'd think that would be a big scandal, but the press was defending him. | ||
| They were protecting him. | ||
| Imagine if Trump did that. | ||
| Trump did it. | ||
| He killed Americans too? | ||
| One of the first things that happened when Trump got into office was he ordered a commando | ||
| raid which resulted in the death of an 8-year-old American girl. | ||
| I believe it was Abdelrahman's little sister. | ||
| I've never heard of that. | ||
| So these are things that I have serious issues with. | ||
| Now, some people have tried explaining this away to me, saying that, look, you know, Trump isn't a foreign policy guy, so he was being pressured by these bad advisors and he was surrounded by Deep State and blah blah blah, and I'm like, I'm willing to accept that if he does something about this. | ||
| And then when he announced he was going to start pulling troops out of Syria, and then you saw the media really went after him, I was like, these are good things. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And so perhaps it's aside from his character, there's a lot of really good things about Trump that we haven't seen in a long time. | ||
| But more importantly, first of all, I hate voting for people. | ||
| I hate being like, I got behind this person because you never know what they're going to do. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| The problem right now is we are facing a serious economic crisis. | ||
| And we got a guy who was in office for years who gave us a great economy. | ||
| I really don't know what else you could ask for. | ||
| So this is the point I'm making. | ||
| I am leaning absolutely in favor of voting for Trump. | ||
| I am not. | ||
| We're not there yet. | ||
| We're six months out. | ||
| Yeah, but we'll see. | ||
| We'll see how it plays out. | ||
| And when I know for sure, like when I come out of that voting booth, if I said, you know what, | ||
| we got to do this, then I'll be on. | ||
| I'll be like, oh, I went and did it. | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
| Okay. | ||
| I just think there's you got to be careful, man. | ||
| Because, you know why I'm like, tepid on this? | ||
| No, because I voted for Obama the first time. | ||
| Me too. | ||
| And then, you know what he did? | ||
| He blew up a village of women and children. | ||
| And I had to go to my friends and be like, eh, I supported that. | ||
| And that's why I'm like, I don't wanna play that game, dude. | ||
| You fooled me once. | ||
| So... | ||
| Drones it was a drone strike like 23 women and children and then all my friends who are dancing around | ||
| I'm like so now do I have to come here and be like? | ||
| The people I knew who didn't vote for Obama were like see what you've done | ||
| And I'm like what would McCain have done something else and they're like no excuse and I'm like there's no excuse | ||
| We don't know what McCain would have done Obama did it Obama did it's way worse, but they're saying it's your | ||
| fault though No, it was just like the point was like you voted for it | ||
| And it reminds me of what George Carlin said. | ||
| That's virtue signaling. | ||
| Remember what George Carlin said? | ||
| He was like, people always blame me saying, you didn't vote. | ||
| It's your fault. | ||
| I know you voted for him. | ||
| It's your fault. | ||
| And I'm like, I agree. | ||
| Like, that's why I in 2016, I didn't vote. | ||
| I was like, I don't know, man. | ||
| I don't want to be involved in this. | ||
| But I think regardless of your feelings on Trump, the economy is really important. | ||
| We've got people who are in trouble. | ||
| It's like one of the most important things we need to get going again right now. | ||
| It's like if we don't, so many people are going to die. | ||
| They think the coronavirus is bad? | ||
| Like, no. | ||
| When the food stops coming and people start killing each other over food, that's going to be what's next. | ||
| if we don't get the economy going so all I can think it's like we need to get this economy going | ||
| what who's good for the economy what trump he did a good job with the economy it's like I was never | ||
| really a trump fan you know and I don't know I don't know Biden but anytime I hear him speak I'm | ||
| like oh stop speaking dude no just stop please the wall thing is funny the build the wall the big | ||
| beautiful wall from sea to shining sea and I roll my eyes I'm like yeah we were watching family you | ||
| see that clip from family guy earlier we were watching we're talking about this stuff well | ||
| this is funny they uh they were in Mexico okay like the Griffins with quagmire and then Consuela | ||
| helps them escape okay and And then they're like, thanks Consuela. | ||
| And they're like, now how far to America? | ||
| And she's like, this is Texas. | ||
| And then they're like, what? | ||
| And Quagmire goes, wait a minute, you mean we just walked into America? | ||
| There was nothing there. | ||
| We just literally walked in. | ||
| He's like, come on guys, politics aside, we agree this is a problem, right? | ||
| And then they all look at him and the scene cuts. | ||
| I'm like, what was this? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Like Seth MacFarlane just coming straight up being like, why is there no... | |
| So, uh, yeah, there's a lot of bombastic, hyperbolic, silly I roll my eyes at, but nah, man, we need that economy. | ||
| We do. | ||
| We do. | ||
| We need it. | ||
| So we'll see how things play out. | ||
| But that's that's what I've said before. | ||
| And it's funny because, like, a lot of Trump people act like I've not said this. | ||
| I'm like, I said this three months ago. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| You know, we'll see how it plays out, man. | ||
| We really got to get to these super chats. | ||
| Holy cow. | ||
| Do we have to get to these super chats? | ||
| We're not going to make it because... | ||

| New Jersey. | ||

| Me too. | ||
| The Grizzly says, what's wrong with Michigan? | ||
| That's a rather simple answer. | ||
| Detroit is what's wrong with Michigan. | ||
| I'm from there. | ||
| Out of state in Florida. | ||
| May move here permanently. | ||
| The thing is that Whitmer's making the entire state locked down because of Detroit. | ||
| That's what it is in most states. | ||
| That makes sense. | ||
| New York City goes bad, lock the whole state down. | ||
| Because they can. | ||
| And then New Jersey, like right across, like Newark on the other side, or Jersey City, it's like, it's the same metro, man. | ||
| Well, it's funny, because Jersey is almost, I mean, I know there's a lot of, like, foresty areas, but there's so many suburbs here. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| The suburbs of Philadelphia, and suburbs of New York City, and it's just like one big suburb state, almost. | ||
| Right, yeah. | ||
| You know, where all the people commute, they commute down to D.C. | ||

| There are parts, I was reading something, I can't remember which state, but it's very similar. | ||
| The entire state has no cases and they lock down. | ||
| There's like one city with a small handful of cases, so they lock down rural parts that have almost no contact with other parts of the state. | ||

| Kojima Fire says, this is a question for the Beanie Bros. | ||
| As it starts to warm up here, all I have are winter beanies. | ||
| Could you recommend any light ones for me? | ||
| The DC clap beanie is one that I often use. | ||
| Go to skate shops. | ||
| Skateboarders wear beanies in the summer because they're really thin. | ||
| It's like, there's also surf beanies. | ||
| I actually don't really wear beanies that often. | ||

No? | |
| Yeah, pretty much. | ||
| You're just trying to get with the show, you know? | ||
| I was. | ||
| It's true. | ||
| I saw your beanie and I was so jealous. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| So I had to do it. | ||
| No, I mean, I have a beanie. | ||
| It's mostly for just keeping the hair out of my face, but I usually just tie it back and forget it. | ||
| When I'm getting serious like today. | ||
| It's just laziness, honestly. | ||
| There's one trick that's always eluded me. | ||
| I can do crazy tricks, man. | ||
| I can do nollie half hardflip late flips. | ||
| I can do fakie hardflip fakie ghetto birds. | ||
| I can do late flips, but frontside flips have always... I can do a switch frontside flip, nollie backside flip, fakie frontside flip, a regular frontside flip. | ||
| You landed it today. | ||
| Yeah, I'll count it. | ||
| It was really bad. | ||
| I did one yesterday. | ||
| You landed it. | ||
| So I argue I can do it, but it's always eluded me. | ||
| You landed it. | ||
| I had to get serious. | ||
| The beanie came off. | ||
| It was interesting. | ||
| He took the beanie off. | ||
| I was mad. | ||
| He was focused. | ||
| I saw it, but then he landed it though. | ||
| So when we're skating periodically, I have to drain the beanie. | ||
| He does. | ||
| I'm telling you, man, skating without something blocking the sweat. | ||
| It's like in your eyes and your face. | ||

| Thanks. | ||
| I don't want to ask for a manager. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| So, there's issues with that because This may be an urban legend, and YouTube has talked about it, but putting external links in YouTube videos, YouTube suppresses those videos. | ||
| Really? | ||
| Because they don't want you driving traffic off of YouTube. | ||
| So what I did was, I made it so that the URL of all of the videos appears in the video, so you can actually see it at top. | ||
| Oh, that makes sense. | ||
| Boom. | ||
| Well, but there you go. | ||
| There you go. | ||

| it's hard to source i mean | ||
| face book is training it's a i two sensor hateful means You type that up in a search engine, that article's gonna come up. | ||
| I try to be very, very careful about what... I know a whole lot about how YouTube's algorithm works and the things they do. | ||
| They've claimed this is not true. | ||
| I don't believe them. | ||
| Because they also have a link approval system where if you want to put links in your videos that you can click on, you've got to get it approved. | ||
| Really? | ||
| Yeah, so if you want to do a card where it's like, here's my website, it's got to be some approved website. | ||
| So I'm like, I really don't believe it. | ||
| So people ask me all the time, and this is what I always say, YouTube will suppress this so no one ever sees it, so the best I can do is show you. | ||
| Here's the site, here's the link. | ||
| And I gotta be honest, man, when people ask for this, I'm like, you really could just Google what I said. | ||
| Yeah, that's what I'm saying. | ||

| No, they don't climb it at the same time. | ||

| Hey, good for you. | ||
| Nice. | ||
| It's funny because they were like, masks don't work, don't wear masks. | ||
| Now you should wear masks. | ||
| Now that we have all our masks covered, you can go ahead and wear them. | ||
| Yeah. Arturo Caliente says the S will really hit the fan once the recession hits. Job loss, | ||

| And even if they lift every restriction now, three months from now you will feel it. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| And so I see a lot of people saying, the moment you get those Trump bucks, you need to buy something tangible that retains value because the moment they print the money and it drops in your account, the value, the buying power of the dollar starts dramatically going down. | ||
| So, I don't know what you should do. | ||

| That's why I kind of liked him. | ||
| He actually did have one of the best arguments for UBI. | ||
| It is particularly complicated, as always. | ||

| Two Rivers Lad says, how is fascism far right? | ||
| It's an outgrowth of socialism and advocates large government bureaucracies. | ||
| I thought the right of the political compass advocated for small government and far right no government. | ||
| The conflict here is the definition of what left and right means. | ||
| There's cultural left and right, economic left and right, and the cultural left and right is where people usually refer to fascism as far right, because the cultural spectrum is progressive versus traditional. | ||
| You tend to see an overlap with the progressives wanting socialism, but there is a way to invert this. | ||
| What ends up happening is, the far left, because it tends to be both culturally left and economically left, is associated generally with the left, which confuses people when you then talk about, like, communists who, or like, Like, ultra-traditional capitalism is far-right. | ||
| It's weird and it's colloquial language that makes very little sense. | ||
| That's the easiest way to break it down. | ||
| Easiest way to explain to somebody? | ||
| Ask them what they're referring to when they say left or right. | ||
| Are they talking about American political factions, culture war factions, or traditional versus progressive, or laissez-faire versus communism? | ||

| California has the largest population of homeless of any state in the U.S. | ||
| They are largely not social distancing or wearing masks. | ||
| Why don't we see a massive outbreak of the Voldemort virus among the homeless population? | ||
| Very good question. | ||
| I thought we were. | ||
| At one homeless shelter, we saw an outbreak. | ||
| Yeah, and most of them were asymptomatic, I think. | ||
| It's because they're outside. | ||
| That really is it. | ||
| The vitamin D. It's the vitamin D, and it's like, they're not necessarily social distancing, but they're not huddled together in cafes and offices. | ||
| You know what? | ||
| They probably are really resilient against a lot of bacteria and viruses, though. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| They're living on the street. | ||
| They're engaging with millions of people all of the time. | ||
| They're not engaging with a lot of people. | ||
| They're probably prepped in strong, resilient bodies. | ||
| No joke! | ||
| They're not engaging with a lot of people. | ||
| Well, I mean, some people are. | ||
| Like, hey, do you have any money? | ||
| Hey, do you have any money? | ||
| Hey, do you have any money? | ||
| That's true. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| It depends on the homeless person, I guess. | ||
| So I think one of the things is regular people go to Starbucks. | ||
| Tons of people. | ||
| Everyone touching everything. | ||
| They go to office. | ||
| Everyone touching everything. | ||
| True. | ||
| Homeless person outside. | ||
| Sunlight disinfectant. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| With their shopping cart walking around. | ||
| They're not in those environments. | ||
| It's true. | ||
| Big ol' jump. | ||
| I just saw that, yeah. | ||
| Thanks, everybody. | ||
| Appreciate you guys. | ||
| I gotta figure out, uh... Where we were. | ||
| Yup, yup. | ||
| Yeah, that's the thing. | ||
| We got tons, tons and tons of superchats. | ||
| There are so many. | ||
| There we go. | ||
| Found it! | ||
| TheGrizzly says, Last point. | ||
| Violence between the urban and rural areas is inevitable due to the culture differences. | ||
| The right is more used to and willing to resort to violence rather than the left. | ||
| They are more willing to start violence. | ||
| The right is? | ||
| The left is more willing to start it. | ||
| They just can't go that far, I think. | ||
| Lauren Wren says, Tim, I have enjoyed sharing in your journey. | ||
| Been a fan since Occupy Wall Street. | ||
| Also, I got my Patriot supply. | ||

|
You're supposed to save it. | |
| Sure, you gotta try it. | ||
| But I'm glad you got it. | ||
| We haven't touched ours. | ||
| We've got just the thing sitting in the closet. | ||
| But we did go to the store and buy a bunch of beans and stuff. | ||
| We have been eating, you know, through it. | ||
| Because I'm not, you know, anticipating an apocalypse for the most part. | ||

I don't know. | |
| I don't know. | ||
| I don't know a lot about him. | ||
| I met him one time, but I don't really follow him all that much. | ||
| I did watch some of the video he put out on the Arbery case. | ||
| Clear, thanks for becoming a member. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| I hesitate on the guest thing because it's like, I think we might not even have guests moving forward since the COVID thing kind of just broke everything. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And I'm like, I don't even know. | ||
| Like, should I? | ||
| Yeah, I don't even know what we're going to do. | ||
| But we will review movies. | ||
| Oh, yes. | ||
| I cannot wait. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I can't wait. | |
| We can go to the drive-in. | ||
| That's becoming a thing. | ||
| We can review Trolls World Tour right now, man. | ||
| Oh no. | ||
| Yeah, it's made all this money, it's on demand. | ||
| I just lost all of my enthusiasm. | ||
| I know, right? | ||
| Alright, let's read, let's read, let's read. | ||
| A handy redneck says, suggestion, next time you have news overload, like you seem to have had yesterday, why not just do an AdamCast deep dive on a non-news subject, just saying, we like you folks. | ||
| Well, on that, I mean, I guess that, like, can I take this one? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| Well, so I found out I usually when I was doing AdamCast, I would come up with the subjects myself. | ||
| Neither of them were here. | ||
| And both we all do story a story discussion before the show. | ||
| So it's a lot easier. | ||
| It's not just on me. | ||
| I mean, Ian actually was coming up with some ideas, too. | ||
| we're bouncing off each other but I found out. Pretty much like 3040 | ||
| minutes right for the the start of the show so I didn't have anything. Ready and I wasn't. But I mean. | ||
| Enough people have suggested this so that I should just have | ||
| a deep dive ready to go like someone to really do an episode on. Which I probably will. Yep so | ||
| that's that's actually on yeah. That's actually what we figured because | ||
| it wasn't it wasn't news overload necessarily it was that there | ||
| was like. The stories were all extremely weak so it required | ||
| a lot of research. And it was yeah it's a Yeah, exactly. | ||
| And so then the general idea was, like, that's a day that, you know, when I'm, like, collapsed on the floor and, like, drenched in sweat, Adam can just, you know, run an Atomcast or something. | ||
| That's what we'll probably do. | ||
| We'll probably do it. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Josh Separate says, Arbery case. | ||
| The electrician says, isn't good to be in under construction home. | ||
| If Georgia has duty to, uh, duty to retreat, Arbery has problem due to charging the guy with gun when there was another way to run. | ||
| That's, I know, and nobody wants to bring that point up. | ||
| Arbery didn't have to run into, in their direction. | ||
| Didn't he run right up to them? | ||
| So the guy is in the street. | ||
| He turns right and goes around the truck and then attacks him. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know, man. | |
| I don't. | ||
| But the left is always lying about these things. | ||
| Like, it's Jesse Smollett. | ||
| I just don't know enough stuff. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And it's like everything that they say, it doesn't really fit the narrative of what I've heard. | ||
| So. | ||
| Like Fry Like Fry says Adam. | ||
| What up? | ||
| When do you plan on doing your own show? | ||
| Also thanks for talking about chow cheese in previous episode. | ||
| I am lactose intolerant and haven't had milk products in a long time. | ||
| Oh, I hope you tried it because it is incredible. | ||
| I actually suggested this to a few people and people are hitting me up saying it is so good. | ||
| I'm almost actually scared now that I'm not going to find it when I go to the store. | ||
| So don't buy it around me, but buy it because it's really good. | ||
| It is, it is. | ||
| I made a grilled cheese with it the first time you got it. | ||
| You haven't had dairy in a while now, right? | ||
| No, we have today. | ||
| Oh, you did. | ||
| Yeah, so we still have cheese. | ||
| Oh, right, right. | ||
| We're gonna get rid of it. | ||
| You're still eating the leftovers. | ||
| I'm trying. | ||
| Residual cheese. | ||
| I'm thinking of something kind of paleo, but I'm like, probably not necessarily. | ||
| But it's like, how can I just eat better? | ||
| So it's like we had mashed potatoes and salmon today. | ||
| I really got to start my own show. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, of course you do, man. | ||
| Of course you do. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| I like Fry, I like Fry. | ||
| I appreciate that. | ||
| Oh, there it is! | ||
| Boom! | ||
| Right, I think it's a manslaughter case. | ||
| is I'm conservative and don't always agree with you, and that's okay. | ||
| I watch all your videos. | ||
| Keep up the good work. | ||
| You are doing a great service to the American people. | ||
| I just complain about my feelings on the internet, man. | ||
| It's Fathead, Mr. Poole. | ||
| Given the pandemic and the current polarization of government today, do you think that this is an excuse to hit the reset button on our current democracy? | ||
| If so, would it be a quick restart or a hard reboot? | ||
| I don't, I don't, I don't know. | ||
| I don't think so. | ||
| I mean, we just need the courts to uphold the Constitution. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But short of them, like them, they're not doing it. | ||
| What do we do? | ||
| Right. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I'm not, I'm not smart enough. | ||
| Boogaloo. | ||
| No. | ||

That's a good motto. | |
| I like that. | ||
| It reminds me of the Patriot when Mel Gibson says, you know, mark my words, this war will not be fought in the frontier. | ||
| It will be fought in your homes, in your towns, in your schools. | ||
| People don't realize how bad it would be. | ||
| You do not want that. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| Scott Poland says, just hopping in, but have you talked about Justin Amash? | ||
| He is a viable candidate that will pull in Democrats and reluctant Trumpers. | ||
| Worth looking into? | ||
| Nah, no thank you. | ||
| Oh my gosh, your face, Lydia. | ||
| I'm making faces too. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| You seem absolutely disgusted. | ||
| I voted for a third party candidate in 2016 and I will probably never vote for a third party candidate again. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Because it was just nothing. | ||
| And it seems like every third party candidate is kind of like that. | ||
| Tossing a pebble in the ocean. | ||
| Yeah, that's nonsense. | ||
| Saint Miles says, Hey Tim, Adam, and Lydia, because this is the most intellectual, entertaining, and calm conversations, I opened my 25-year-old Glen Morin, and I'm now having a glass with my feet up. | ||

| I like the Glens. | ||

| Here we are The Brooklyn Way says Trump curved the press curved the press the way Kim deal curd Jack's, Florida in 1989-1990 straight-up walked off the stage and he was right to do so good for him. | ||
| Yeah, he was David says, Tim, talk about the breakdown of the global | ||
| food supply and the regional wars that are about to start. We need to know the cost of not exporting | ||
| our surplus food, a billion dead in the next year. I hope not. | ||
| More the reason why we need to open this economy back up. | ||
| But the crack is already there. | ||
| So it's like... Yeah, it's the hesitation. | ||
| So it's like, to catch it up, eventually there's still going to be that gap that we've been closed for so long. | ||
| When we shut down the economy, we took the rope and we whipped it, and now that wave is traveling all the way down. | ||
| So even if we start it back up, the wave is still going to hit. | ||
| But the longer we wait, the bigger that space is going to be. | ||
| Yep, it's gonna get bad. | ||
