You YouTube is broken
tim pool
YouTube is broken all the time.
And it's broken now.
And we're going to do a show anyway.
Welcome to the show, everybody.
My name is Tim Poole.
This is TimCast IRL.
I am hanging out with my friends.
adam crigler
What's up, everybody?
How you doing?
tim pool
That's Adam.
unidentified
How you doing?
lydia smith
That's Adam?
adam crigler
Yep.
lydia smith
I'm Lydia.
tim pool
That's Lydia.
We're chilling.
Apparently, Alan Dershowitz, who's like a famous constitutional lawyer, defended Donald Trump, but was also a big Clinton supporter, has said the government can, you know, Oh, he's a constitutional lawyer?
unidentified
Yeah.
adam crigler
That's his job?
tim pool
Well, he's like a professor at some university.
adam crigler
And that's what he's saying?
Oh my goodness.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
Ridiculous.
tim pool
Yeah.
So he's saying, you know, hey man, if the government wants to medicate you, what are you gonna do about it?
adam crigler
They can put you on a chair and force you, force a needle in your arm.
tim pool
Is that what he said?
adam crigler
That's exactly what he said.
I was shocked.
Oh, it's funny.
tim pool
It's so funny.
unidentified
I love it.
tim pool
I love the decay of our constitutional rights.
Man, I didn't think we would 1984 that fast.
You know, I thought it was gonna be like a slow build.
You know, no, it's just like...
So there's a gym by us called Attalist.
Really, really close to where we live. I went and drove past it the other day.
And they arrested a woman for quote, organizing a protest.
Like, wait, wait, wait, what?
That's literally the First Amendment.
adam crigler
First Amendment, the right to protest.
Yeah, well, you know.
tim pool
And you know what we're gonna do?
adam crigler
Where's that boogaloo?
tim pool
Yeah, if you want a boogaloo, that's how you get a boogaloo.
It's like they want it.
adam crigler
It's like they're daring the citizens to rise up.
Like, come on, dare ya.
See how far we can go.
tim pool
I figured it out.
It's the lizard people.
And because the lizard people globalists got beaten, the interdimensional lizard people globalists got defeated by Donald Trump.
They're just like, burn it all down.
It's the end.
And Trump, you know, I'm kidding.
adam crigler
Oh, man.
tim pool
I'm kidding.
We have a couple other stories.
We'll see what we get to.
There's a whistleblower who exposed that Apple is basically spying on everybody.
adam crigler
Not surprising.
tim pool
Actually listening to has come forward.
Apparently it's an older story, but the guy's now revealed his name and like on the record saying, this is what Apple is doing.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
Listening to people's intimate moments.
adam crigler
Of course.
tim pool
Yup.
And there's some other stories.
Maybe we'll talk about aliens, you know, Snyder Cut, the Justice League movie.
We've got CDC guidelines.
We'll see what we get to.
We're going to talk.
We're going to hang out.
Y'all are going to hang out too.
And I got bad news for everybody.
The bad news is that YouTube is broken.
I have tried the YouTube Live Studio Producer on two different browsers.
Log in, log out.
Didn't work.
So it's just given me a bit of a blank screen.
But it looks like the Super Chats are finally working again.
The Super Chats weren't working a moment ago.
And it looks like they are now working.
So we're going to hang out.
If you're just tuning in, make sure you smash that like button.
adam crigler
Smash it.
tim pool
Smash it.
adam crigler
Smash it down.
tim pool
Make YouTube be like, whoa, the button's broken, it can never work again.
And hop in the Super Chat if you'd like.
We can't get to everybody.
We get as many Super Chats as we can, but to be clearly honest, when we get 10,000 plus people, it just becomes physically impossible to read every single comment.
Because what happens is the Super Chats come in faster than we can actually read them, and I talk fast.
You know?
So that's impressive.
So I appreciate it.
I really do.
All the superchats, we really do love you guys.
But sometimes, just can't get into them.
But other than that, if you like the podcast, share it.
We're available on iTunes and all that jazz and all those other platforms.
And, you know, now that Joe Rogan's leaving YouTube, we're all gonna start fighting.
It's gonna be like a grudge match against all the other vodcast podcasts, you know, boxing each other, trying to claw our way to the top.
adam crigler
Some some guy posted a video a clip of our show yesterday About you talking about that and was basically saying like
Tim's claiming that he's gonna get get all of Joe Rogan's You know fans and millions of people are gonna flock to him
and I'm like what?
Joke like I'm like, you know, I'll click on the video. Let me see what he's
And it's just him with no shirt on just complaining about you
tim pool
And it's like people love to come well, it doesn't make sense and I'm pretty sure I always I was like, I'm just
kidding It was kind of funny. Like the joke is it's gonna be you
ever see the movie The One with Jet Li I think so, but I don't know. It's the one where there's
like 215 dimensions or something, okay
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
And there's that many versions of you.
adam crigler
Yes, yes.
tim pool
And you all share energy.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
So he goes around killing his own alternates.
adam crigler
And gets stronger.
tim pool
Condensing the energy.
But then there's the unsuspecting Jet Li who's like somehow getting stronger.
And then it ends with him on the top of this mountain just fighting off all the people who are trying to like come for him.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And I'm like, that's it.
That's like, that was Joe Rogan.
Now he's gone.
So all of those hordes are Crawling to the top.
unidentified
We want the power!
tim pool
It's a joke, by the way.
It's a joke.
Yeah, but people don't want there to be jokes because they want to have something to be angry about.
You ever see that comic where the guy's like, I'm angry.
Then the guy's like, here's a solution.
And then the guy burns it and he goes, I don't want a solution.
I want to be angry.
I love it.
It's exactly that.
It describes everything so well.
So, uh, you know, the other day we were talking about this gym.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
That, uh, they reopened in defiance of the governor's order.
adam crigler
Yesterday.
unidentified
Yesterday.
adam crigler
Yeah, we were talking about it yesterday.
unidentified
Right.
adam crigler
And I didn't believe that you were gonna go.
unidentified
I went.
adam crigler
And he did.
He went.
tim pool
It's, it's, it's, it's like three miles away.
adam crigler
And you called it, or actually I said it was going to be nothing, and you showed up and they were closed.
tim pool
Yeah, of course, of course.
Like I can't imagine, it says online that they're open until like 11 or whatever.
But so this is a story that actually came out the other day.
Alan Dershowitz says, power to plunge a needle into your arm.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
Dershowitz says forced vaccinations are constitutional.
What?
adam crigler
Yeah, I'm sorry.
Excuse me?
tim pool
Doesn't the Constitution say something like, if the government isn't granted the power specifically, it can't do it or something?
lydia smith
10th Amendment.
tim pool
That's the 10th one?
lydia smith
Well, that technically leaves it to the states.
tim pool
That's the enumeration of the rights of the states or whatever.
lydia smith
Yeah, but anything that's not specifically given to the federal government is left to the states.
adam crigler
Hmm.
tim pool
So, uh, my first question for all of you, you can comment as we get started.
If the government vaccine man knocked on your door and said, you know, drop trow, turn around, the injections are coming.
What would you do?
unidentified
Nope.
tim pool
What would you do?
Forced vaccinations.
adam crigler
Nope.
tim pool
This is creepy man.
adam crigler
And they said 18 months for like a safe vaccination and now they're like claiming they're gonna have one by the end of the year and it's like that's like in a nine-month period you're gonna rock out a vaccination and then force it upon everybody.
tim pool
So do you think?
adam crigler
I don't know.
tim pool
Do you think we'll end up with like, do you know what Thimidolide was?
adam crigler
No.
tim pool
It was a medication in the, I think it was in the 80s.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
And pregnant women who took it, their babies were born without limbs so they'd like just Do you think we'll end up with something like that from a rushed vaccine?
Do you think we'll end up with like Morlocks and like, you know, people who can't like, you know, basically they get injected and like, and all of a sudden they have their force underground?
Or like, do you think it'll be like zombies?
adam crigler
Or it just renders anyone who has it, like, sterile or something.
unidentified
Oh my god!
tim pool
I'm kidding, by the way!
adam crigler
I'm going really extreme, but... That's what I was thinking.
You know the Georgia Guidestones?
Like, what was it?
500 million people max?
There's people that believe that, you know?
tim pool
For sure.
adam crigler
Bill Gates, isn't he saying that there's too many of us?
And he's the one, like, all about vaccines and... Yes, but... I mean, I'm really diving way out there.
I'm just... No, look, look, look.
I mean, I don't know, you know?
tim pool
We are now at the point where... I mean, I like to say we're on the precipice of some kind of boogaloo, but... I agree.
Let me tell you all, listening, something.
The other day, no, no, no, hold on.
For the past week or two weeks, I personally have been talking about on my channels the lockdowns, the constitutionality of it, the medical benefits of it.
And guess what?
Multiple studies say, you know, social distancing works.
We have studies suggesting the lockdown may have actually been bad.
We have an economic crisis.
We have food shortages, food prices skyrocketing, and there's all of the reason to suggest we should reopen.
YouTube just issued a statement.
Anybody who says anything about the lockdowns being bad is banned.
Boom.
Outright.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
So that video, there's a video from a doctor where he said, we need, I think he said something like we need social distancing, but we can't do the lockdown because we have to develop herd immunity.
YouTube deleted the video.
adam crigler
Well, he didn't actually say herd immunity, just immunity in general.
Like when you're locked inside, you lose your natural immunity in general.
tim pool
Right.
The point is, we have these cops in New Jersey violating the Constitution.
Let me show you the next story.
We do gotta read.
Police charge woman with organizing a protest at Rogue Atlas Gym.
Let's get some context here.
What is this?
Police charge woman for organizing a protest?
How does that make sense?
They say, according to a statement from Belmar Police Chief William Walsh, they cited the gym owners Frank Trombettini and Smith.
Police have also charged one person with obstructing the administration of law, reportedly because he refused to identify himself to officers, and police charged anti-shutdown protester Ayla Wolf with organizing a protest.
So I guess that's it, right?
Here's a Murphy said, I don't begrudge anyone, anyone's right to protest.
Murphy said in April, this is America.
We all have first amendment rights.
I really wish they would do it at home.
Wait, what?
All right.
adam crigler
You could protest, but don't do it here.
Go do it at home.
tim pool
I'm going to protest right now.
adam crigler
To who?
tim pool
We're going to leave the camera running.
I'm going to go in my room and I'm going to wave a sign out my window.
I'm protesting!
Neighbors, look at me.
Listen.
This woman was arrested for quote, organizing a protest.
That's not a crime.
adam crigler
Nope, that's not a crime.
tim pool
But YouTube says that if you do anything or say anything that could encourage people to do something dangerous, they'll ban your video outright.
adam crigler
So when he says, you know, go protest at home, wouldn't that, like, what options do you have other than to go on the internet and protest and make people see it?
tim pool
You'd get banned.
You'd get censored.
adam crigler
So they're basically making the First Amendment illegal.
tim pool
So the other day, I did a video about people in Virginia flocking to the beaches.
Okay.
And people in New York are out partying.
Dude, this is crazy stuff, right?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
What's going on in New York, there's people jumping on cars and just like taking the streets over and they're twerking and they're doing simulated sex stuff.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And it's just bonkers in New York City.
Meanwhile, the governor of New Jersey is threatening a local gym because they want to have some people exercise.
What's worse, they can't enforce the other one so they're gonna go after this guy?
YouTube shadowbanned my video.
It didn't appear on my channel for most people.
Some people could see it, I could see it, most people couldn't.
That's a shadowban.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
So I've been censored already.
What happens when they come and they just ban this channel outright?
And my other channels outright.
We can't talk anymore.
And they say, nope, you're encouraging dangerous things.
adam crigler
Well, I mean, yesterday we were kind of on the edge of talking about certain things.
I don't even want to bring them up again.
But for those who watched our show yesterday, we talked about it a couple of times.
Like, man, this might get us banned.
We're just going to keep talking about it.
This might get us banned.
Let's just keep talking about it.
Whatever.
And trying to start our show today, YouTube was messing up.
YouTube's totally broken.
It still is not updating.
I can see it's not normal.
It's not showing the normal specs.
Something's different today than it was yesterday.
tim pool
I mean, this happens.
When we first tried starting the show, we weren't seeing any concurrent numbers, any likes, any revenue, and Super Chats weren't loading.
And then now super chats are loading, but nothing else is refreshing.
So we have, I have no idea how many likes there are, chat revenue.
It's supposed to show us, doesn't show us.
It's broken.
I tried logging out.
But anyway, I think we're dangerously close to something nightmarish because you've got Alan Dershowitz saying the government can force a needle into your arm.
adam crigler
Yeah.
Yeah.
tim pool
I'm going to say no to that, period.
adam crigler
He also said you don't have a right to not be vaccinated.
It's like, What?
How is that possible?
How can you decide whether or not I get vaccinated or not?
tim pool
There are some things that make sense, because I'm in favor of vaccines, right?
unidentified
Right.
tim pool
I'm not in favor of rushed treat, like, you know, where they're like panicking.
adam crigler
Precisely.
tim pool
But if a public school, in my opinion, says you can't go here unless you're vaccinated, I'm cool with that.
lydia smith
You know what?
adam crigler
That makes sense.
tim pool
It's a public school.
If the public, you know, ordinance is passed saying these are the requirements we have for what this school, great, homeschool.
But they don't like homeschool.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
They don't like that.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
That's the alternative.
It's like, OK, if you don't want to vaccinate your kids, don't bring them to the school, man.
adam crigler
Yeah.
Done.
tim pool
It's that easy.
So let's read and see what Dershowitz said, because I'm telling you, man, we are dangerously close.
I mean, I kind of feel like we're over the precipice, like we just right off the edge.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And we're just falling at this point.
adam crigler
Yeah, it feels like it.
tim pool
Here we go.
A top lawyer who defended President Trump during his Senate impeachment trial believes the Constitution grants the government power to vaccinate citizens against their will.
Speaking with Crowdsource The Truth host Jason Goodman over the weekend, Harvard professor Ellen Dershowitz said the public safety outweighs any private liberty concerns of US citizens who do not wish to be vaccinated for the coronavirus.
unidentified
What?
adam crigler
Where does it say that in the Constitution?
It sounds like he's just making that up.
tim pool
Those who... What is it?
Those who would give up essential liberties for the prospect of security deserve neither and will lose both.
Something like that.
I don't know if that's actually a quote from... It is?
No, I don't think it's a real quote from a founding father.
I think it was somebody said it and then they attribute it to him because otherwise... It's what people like doing.
They've done it for hundreds of years or longer.
They'll say something they believe but attribute it to a great person so that people will listen.
adam crigler
Yeah.
lydia smith
That is from Benjamin Franklin.
tim pool
Are you sure?
Yep.
unidentified
100%?
lydia smith
NPR.
tim pool
Oh, okay.
lydia smith
Yeah, I just lost context, they say.
tim pool
Oh, okay.
Did he say that specifically?
lydia smith
Yeah, those who would give up the essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.
tim pool
There you go.
lydia smith
Yeah, so.
tim pool
So when YouTube comes knocking and they say, you better tow the line for the machine or else, I'll say, or else.
And we're here.
So I say that we're dangerously close because we're at a point where the only, the monopolized video platform right now is basically saying, we warned you bro, we shadow banned your video.
If you keep talking out about this, we'll just knock you right out.
You must advocate for the government to come and force you to be medicated.
adam crigler
Nope.
tim pool
This is the future.
This is great.
adam crigler
No way.
tim pool
So, so, you know, I like to think that there would be a point, you know, when this all blows over, that there's going to be like lawsuits.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
There already are a lot of lawsuits.
I'm not confident.
The governor of New Jersey said we can't fully reopen until there's a vaccine.
adam crigler
It's ridiculous.
tim pool
I'm out.
I'm out.
We've been looking to expand, finding a building, and we've been looking, not necessarily in Jersey and other states, but we really wanted to do it here because we were here, and now it's like, nah.
We'll figure something else out.
I'm not going to be in a state where you've got, you know, legit despots being like, this is what really freaks me out, is that you have this small business, this gym, and it's like two guys, and they're like, we're going to exercise and open our business, and he specifically tells them, Of everything he could be talking about, he goes after this one small business, these two guys who have no power, no authority, and he's the governor of this state, and he's leveraging the massive power of that state against this tiny business.
Meanwhile, Walmart's profits are up 74%.
74%, huh?
adam crigler
Yeah.
Wow.
tim pool
Big box stores are skyrocketing.
It's, man, it's not like... Which dystopian novel are we in again?
It's like a little bit of every single one, you know?
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
So, uh, for me, I think the big concern with them rushing the vaccine is I don't literally think it's going to be zombies or, you know, mole people or whatever.
But, uh, I mean, who wants to be the guinea pig for the first run of vaccines?
Some people do.
I don't.
adam crigler
I don't.
Definitely not.
tim pool
So, so, so, uh, did you guys answer the question?
Oh, I know you did.
You said no.
The government, you know, comes and says, drop you out, turn around, put the needle in your butt.
So let's check this out.
He says, quote, let me put it very clearly.
You have no constitutional right to endanger the public and spread disease even if you disagree.
You have no right not to be vaccinated.
You have no right not to wear a mask.
You have no right to open up your business.
Goodman interjected to clarify whether Dershowitz was saying the federal government has the ability
to mandate vaccinations for all citizens. Absolutely, Dershowitz replied. And if you
refuse to be vaccinated, the state has the power to literally take you to a doctor's office and
plunge a needle into your arm. Well, that's insane. You know what?
I'd like to see Antifa speak up.
adam crigler
Yeah, where they at?
What's going on?
tim pool
They're agreeing with the government!
adam crigler
I don't get it.
tim pool
Not all of them.
I think they're hiding.
I think, you know, the problem for a lot of these activists is that they defended the establishment too much.
Not completely, but too much.
When the mainstream media was saying things like, you go Antifa, Antifa rolled with it.
And now that the establishment saying, OK, now that, you know, you've agreed with us, we're going to, you know, drag you to an office and jam a needle in your arm.
They're like, just don't say anything.
There's no actual, you know, pushback or anything.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
That's what democracy is about.
That's amazing.
If the majority of the people agree and support that, for public health measures, you have to be vaccinated.
You have to be vaccinated.
They should give you an alternative.
The alternative is to live in your home, don't get vaccinated, but never leave your home or live in a bubble.
But if you want to interact with other people, you cannot become typhoid Mary.
The Constitution doesn't give you the right to spread your illness to other people.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
Dershowitz argued that health care workers and officials forcibly vaccinating the public through a legislative and judicial process that comes to a consensus on widespread vaccination is the best defense against the spread of the disease.
adam crigler
So what companies making the vaccine?
Because I want to make some money.
I want to invest in them.
Because that seems like what this is.
Just a bunch of people.
Oh, well, we'll just, you know, make it a law that you have to take this.
And that means the government has to buy it from us.
So we'll make a million dollars.
A billion dollars.
tim pool
By Amazon stock.
adam crigler
What, Amazon owns the vaccine or what?
tim pool
The government just shut down every small business in the country.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
And so people have no choice but to go to Amazon and Walmart.
There you go.
adam crigler
That's it.
tim pool
If you got the cash, and you don't need to worry, you just buy into the big box chains, the big corporate stores, and you will see those stocks go up as all the small businesses get crushed.
It's going to be great.
It's going to be glorious.
Don't you understand, Adam?
Once this is all over, we'll have one store.
We'll have Amazon.
Everybody will be injected by the government.
It's exactly what the Founding Fathers were dreaming of with their birth of a new nation.
Haven't you ever read the Declaration of Independence?
We are all created equally under God, and we have the right to life, liberty, and to be suffering under the mandate of government against our will.
I'm pretty sure that's what it said, right?
lydia smith
That does sound right, yeah.
Maybe not verbatim, but... That's an interpretation, which is what Alan Dershowitz is doing.
adam crigler
Basically, yeah.
lydia smith
I do not want to hear that.
adam crigler
Oh, you know... That's ridiculous, man.
lydia smith
I can't believe he said that.
tim pool
I think I'm gonna get banned.
I think... I've been waiting for it.
adam crigler
Yeah?
tim pool
Because they've been... I think... They're not doing bans, they're doing partner program purges.
adam crigler
So what, you just won't get paid for anything anymore?
tim pool
Yeah, they cut you off so you can't make money.
Yep.
They want you to toe that line, baby.
adam crigler
Well, good thing we know someone who just went over to Spotify with a pretty good deal.
Maybe we can, you know... I mean, you're friends with him, right?
tim pool
And Joe's spoken up a lot about, you know, about the problems of the lockdowns and stuff like that.
adam crigler
Yeah, he has.
tim pool
So I haven't followed everything he said about the lockdown, but for those... I'm sure everybody knows by now Joe Rogan's leaving eventually.
The main show's gonna be off YouTube.
It's gonna be on Spotify.
I hope.
I hope that's a viable alternative.
But it's gonna be probably like Hulu or Netflix.
You've gotta be in the club.
That's what they want, man.
So a bunch of... YouTube has been very clever about how they've purged everybody.
And banning people has gone too far.
And it sparks a huge backlash.
So now they do, you're removed from the partner program, but you can reapply later.
adam crigler
Oh, of course.
tim pool
So, so it lightens the devastation.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
But they also don't do it all at once.
They do like a little bit here and there.
So there were, there are apparently some channels that, uh, this is someone I know told me this.
We're totally in the clear.
unidentified
Mm-hmm.
tim pool
News channels.
Uh, not conspiracy, but you know, a little, I don't know if the right word is maybe, um, not conspiratorial, just not well vetted.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
You know, purged.
Gone.
So I think YouTube is working its way.
It's working its way up this ladder of like just eliminating content and channels.
And, uh, you know, because we know where this is going, you know, Donald Trump is talking about, I believe Trump was talking about this, uh, deploying the military to deliver the vaccine.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
when it's when it's available. And what's the the mortality rate right now based on the current
numbers we have? It's like under one percent. Point one two or something like that. Point one two.
The infection rate I think is around like five percent now.
It's like way way lower.
None of this matters. We don't know. There's a lot of studies coming out and I don't think there's a
grand conspiracy simply because a lot of you know government funded and university funded studies
have come out showing it's not that bad. I think what we're seeing is the new culture war is
is specifically about this.
If Trump's for it, we're against it, right?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
So at first the culture war was very much like free speech, hate speech.
And you had these people who just opposed free speech because.
And now it's, it's, you know, we need to reopen the economy because people are going to starve and prices are going to skyrocket.
And now you have these other people who have gone the other direction.
They're like, no, no, no, no, no, we should be locked down forever.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
So then it's like they're increasingly entertaining the extreme.
What's next?
Forced vaccination, I guess.
adam crigler
Yeah, it feels like they're really just trying to push on the populace.
Like, let's see how far, how much authority we can gain here.
lydia smith
How do they think this is going to end?
Seriously, how does this end well?
How are they thinking that we can stay locked down forever and survive?
I don't really understand.
tim pool
No one's going to do anything about it.
So look, if anybody on social media says, hey, we should do something about it.
Banned.
Instantly.
Gone.
lydia smith
So what happens?
tim pool
Um, people start defying the government orders, like this gym.
People get arrested for organizing protests.
And I think for the most part, no one will do anything.
I really think no one will do anything.
I think in certain parts of the country, people will just bunker down.
But I don't think we'll see any kind of actual resistance to this level of absurdity.
adam crigler
I think certain states are going to be like, I mean, there's already states where their police force is saying, we're going to uphold the Constitution.
Yeah.
And we're not arresting anyone.
They're not doing anything illegal.
So and other states are like, we're arresting everyone no matter what.
tim pool
Yep.
adam crigler
And it's going to shift the population around.
I think that's what's going to happen.
I think we're going to become the divided states of America.
tim pool
Yeah, it's going to send I think a lot of people are going to... I don't know, I think this might make tons of people conservative.
adam crigler
Oh, definitely.
tim pool
Because you've got to think about the liberals who went and bought guns, and the liberals who are now... I don't know the political leaning of these gym owners, but this gym that's trying to reopen is in a heavy blue district.
It's D plus 13.
It's like, we're just on the other side of the river from Philadelphia, so it is very Democrat.
the Reps a Democrat, D plus 13, that means it never goes red, basically. And then just south
of us is, I believe it's NJ2, which is Jeff Van Drew's district, who was a Democrat and switched
to the Republican Party. I think the blue states are going to be dramatically weakened.
Here's what I project right now. The governor came out and said, we won't be back to normal,
the new normal, until there's a vaccine.
So he mentioned stores being packed and people walking around downtown.
That's normal.
And I'm like, you want me to sit in my house for 18 months?
You know what's scary is that most people have no choice.
I'm privileged.
adam crigler
That's true.
tim pool
I have a business that relies on the internet, not on foot traffic.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
So these gym owners, they got, what do they do?
It's like close your gym down and get a gym somewhere else.
Not that easy.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
For me, it's like we're, we're, we're expanding and I'm looking to get a new building.
I'll just get a building somewhere else.
adam crigler
I mean, even bigger companies are closing.
Pier 1 closed, 500 locations or something.
tim pool
Wow.
adam crigler
That's crazy.
After like 50 years, you know, so it's not even the small companies, it's the bigger companies.
And I'm sure gyms are on that list too.
lydia smith
24 hour fitness closing.
adam crigler
Yeah.
Oh, there you go.
Exactly.
tim pool
The entire thing.
Whoa!
lydia smith
I can double check that.
tim pool
Wow, man.
adam crigler
Yeah, it's huge.
So is there even going to be gyms opened?
What gym is owned by Walmart?
Is there one?
tim pool
Could you imagine living in a city after this?
no no my goodness no did this is not new york is almost entirely small business
adam crigler
or almost entirely well not necessarily or like supremely rich businesses like
starbucks or and i mean i can't think of anything
you know apple an apple store There's a corner in New York that I could stand and do a spin and see Starbucks there, Starbucks there, Starbucks there, like five Starbucks in one spot.
I could see them all.
tim pool
But that's just Starbucks.
New York is almost entirely small businesses.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
Individual bodegas.
adam crigler
Sure, sure.
tim pool
There's like very few massive supermarkets.
There's Whole Foods.
There's Trader Joe's and stuff.
But the bodegas are all... I believe the bodegas, a lot of them are like franchise networks kind of.
Like someone might own like four or five bodegas.
adam crigler
Yeah, yeah.
I think that's how it works.
tim pool
But it's a bunch of tiny restaurants.
You walk down Manhattan, like 6th Avenue, and it's like, you know, there's a tiny Thai food restaurant across the street, a tiny Indian food restaurant.
They barely have any seats.
They're all, like, it's mostly small business.
And I was reading something about this a long time ago.
I could be wrong, but I think New York City doesn't allow Walmart.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
I could be wrong about that.
But Chicago is very strict on Walmarts, too, because of how it devastates the small businesses.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
But when you think about how The big chains, like Starbucks will be fine.
Because Starbucks still, a lot of Starbucks are still open and operating across the country.
It's just in the cities where they're shut down.
Like some, and the places that have drive-thrus, they're probably open just fine.
adam crigler
That makes sense.
tim pool
So what's gonna happen?
After 18 months, or whatever, New York finally reopens, people walk outside, no stores, no food, just Starbucks.
If that, man, because the local Starbuckses might close.
All the food's spoiled.
You know, there's nothing left.
They throw everything away.
What do they do with it?
But we are seeing a lot of places lighten up the restrictions now.
So we may be coming out on the other side of this one.
adam crigler
Yeah.
I mean, that's what we said.
We've been saying it's like, Oh man, it feels like it's lightening up.
It feels like it's lightening up.
And then of course they're arresting someone who are like, we're like, we're just a small gym.
We're just trying to open up.
It's like, no, no, no, no, no.
You broke the rules.
You're being arrested for organizing a protest against this lockdown that we, I mean, it seems like we don't need to be locked down anymore.
Why are we locked down still?
tim pool
Well, by saying that we'll get banned.
adam crigler
That's a question.
tim pool
That doesn't matter.
That's how YouTube rolls, baby.
adam crigler
You're trying to put it on me.
tim pool
Well, I'm kidding.
adam crigler
I deny it.
unidentified
I don't know, man.
tim pool
Some people are saying it's like it's a test to see how far they can push people.
And I'm like, there's no conspiracy, dude.
It's it's it's this tribalism.
adam crigler
Some people.
tim pool
Ineptitude.
adam crigler
I've been saying that.
tim pool
It's fear.
Dude, you know what it is?
It's that everybody's screaming at Trump.
Oh, Trump didn't lock down.
It's his fault.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
So these governors are like.
adam crigler
Who wants to blame someone for it?
tim pool
Dude, take the average person, put them in the governor's seat, and they're going to be like, I don't want to be responsible, just lock it all down forever.
Until you impeach me, I don't care.
I won't be responsible for this.
So when people protest, I'm sure if enough people protested, the governor would be like, okay, okay, we're gonna reopen, but it's your fault if anything happens.
adam crigler
That's exactly what Whitmer was saying.
I'm doing this for your own good.
You need to be locked down.
tim pool
She's nuts.
adam crigler
I definitely agree with you.
tim pool
Yeah, she's the queen of Karens.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Actually, Micah Brzezinski, did you see what happened?
adam crigler
I saw all that.
unidentified
She was like, I'm gonna contact the manager of Twitter, and I demand Trump be banned.
tim pool
These people are nuts.
adam crigler
Yep.
lydia smith
It's making everything worse.
tim pool
Oh man, can't you just, like, take a nice bath?
You know?
lydia smith
Can't use your phone in the bath.
tim pool
No, no, I just mean, you know, get some Epsom salt.
adam crigler
Yeah, relax.
tim pool
Sprinkle it in, just light some candles.
adam crigler
Woosa.
tim pool
Put on some Barry White.
Just chill out, you know?
lydia smith
Wow, you've got a lot of ideas here, Tim.
tim pool
Just talking about some relaxing, you know, mood lifting.
adam crigler
You've got a really specific picture here.
lydia smith
I know, I like it.
tim pool
Yeah, I mean, it's probably based off of, like, a 90s-era sitcom or something.
lydia smith
Yeah, yeah, for sure.
tim pool
Some candles.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Funny story, and totally relevant.
I had an apartment burned down because somebody wanted to light candles for this chick that I knew.
And they put a bunch of teddy bears around a bunch of candles.
Like, this is gonna be romantic, and then... Longer story than that, but I won't get into too much detail.
lydia smith
Yikes.
tim pool
Because it's irrelevant, but I just thought of it, and I was like, I'm just gonna say it.
adam crigler
We'll throw this out there.
lydia smith
Okay.
tim pool
Yeah, dude.
unidentified
I'm, uh, I'm bored of all this.
tim pool
That's the other thing.
It's like, I wake up, you know, seeing these stories and I'm like, you know, pissed off.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And I'm trying to do all of these things and I'm kind of just like ready to go.
GTFO.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
West Virginia, baby.
By, uh, by the river.
adam crigler
Shenandoah.
tim pool
Shenandoah River.
Get a little shack.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Do our show.
The set will be the exact same.
No one will have any idea.
adam crigler
In a place that's younger than the mountains.
tim pool
New Jersey has serious problems with attracting millennials.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
Because why would you want to live here?
Like, you turn 20 years old, you're like, I'm gonna go to New York.
I'm gonna go to Philly.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
I'm gonna go to L.A.
adam crigler
That's a good point.
tim pool
Who wants to be in New Jersey?
It's the butt of every joke.
And so... It's true.
And also with attracting new businesses.
And so now I'm like, you know what, man?
I don't think the state cares about my business or anyone else's.
I think the leadership here, one of the biggest problems that I've seen with the current generation of Democrats is that if your whole political existence is predicated upon saying whatever you need to say, just get elected, that you don't actually care about what happens next to your community.
adam crigler
That's true.
lydia smith
That's how we came up with all these leaders.
tim pool
Which ones?
unidentified
Who?
lydia smith
Like, um, what's her name?
Whitmer.
tim pool
Oh, right.
lydia smith
And like the governor of New Jersey.
adam crigler
I think it's even, it's even worse than that.
It's like they're all these people in power.
It feels like they're reaching a point where they don't care what happens to earth.
They're like, eh, I'm gone in like 30 years anyway.
Why, why do I care?
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
Why do I care?
And that's, that's an attitude I see across almost all everyone in the government right now.
It's insane.
tim pool
You know what the worst thing is?
Is when I've debated communists and they always go like, not always, but a lot of them will be like, dude, I'm fighting for a Star Trek kind of future.
Okay.
Don't you want that?
And I'm like, you think communism will get us to the point where we have spaceships and like post scarcity?
You're nuts.
But then the other problem is that.
I think our government's too big.
I think our populations are too big.
In the sense that, how do you govern?
How does one representative represent 750,000 people?
adam crigler
You're right.
They're all 100% different too.
You don't- Everybody's different.
tim pool
So you end up with like Ocasio-Cortez.
She doesn't actually care about her district.
None of these representatives do.
These people get elected in their districts and then go and complain about national level issues.
Not what their district is concerned about.
adam crigler
Exactly.
tim pool
It's the weirdest thing.
Now they have to get re-elected.
But for the most part, these districts have all become D-plus or R-plus.
You know what that means?
unidentified
No.
tim pool
So like, the reason Ocasio-Cortez won is because it's a Democrat-guaranteed district.
adam crigler
Oh, okay.
tim pool
There was no election.
Like, nobody shows up for the primary, nobody cared.
And because she rallied enough activists, and the Democrats just weren't paying attention, she won the primary.
And then because it's a D-plus 30 district, people just walk in and go, D. They don't think twice, they don't care, they don't know.
adam crigler
Someone tweeted at me, actually, that she only got 14 signatures.
She needed 15, so she's not even on the ballot or something.
tim pool
What?
No, no, no.
I'm pretty sure she is.
adam crigler
I'm not sure exactly what it was.
tim pool
That's the Working Families Party.
lydia smith
Yeah, she's applying something different.
tim pool
So the Working Families Party is kind of like an activist ballot.
It never really wins, but it always supports the Democrat.
And she's not going to be on it.
But interestingly, she just had a debate with her principal challenger, Michelle Caruso Cabrera.
Caught her in a lie.
adam crigler
Like AOC in a way?
tim pool
Yeah, AOC said that after this vote in D.C., Michelle Caruso-Cabrera called her out for spending a week in her luxury apartment in D.C.
complete with infinity pool and Whole Foods while her district was suffering and dying from COVID.
And AOC was like, well, I wasn't feeling well.
And then Caruso-Cabrera, I think she was the one who published this, showing the timeline of AOC doing Instagram Live with Megan Rapinoe, the soccer player.
Like you're doing celebrity live streams and doing like, she was there for a week, I guess, you know, posting these videos, like.
adam crigler
Yep.
lydia smith
Just making TikToks.
unidentified
Right.
tim pool
Exactly.
adam crigler
Making, making drinks.
These people in her kitchen.
tim pool
Yep.
In her luxury apartment.
And then what, this is, this is the funniest thing.
Uh, Caruso Cabrera said, you lied and told people you were in the Bronx and AOC said, no, I didn't.
Cause apparently AOC said something like, Hey to everyone here in the Bronx, something like that.
So she didn't actually say, I'm in the Bronx, but she phrased it in a way that people who are watching would think she was back in New York when she was really chilling at a luxury apartment in DC.
Gotta love it, man.
I love it.
I love it.
People have complained about her, but, but, you know, I, I don't want to drag her specifically.
It's, it's like too many.
Like Nancy Pelosi, for sure.
It's like, come on, dude, your city is covered in human waste.
adam crigler
She scares me.
tim pool
The mummy lady.
adam crigler
She's a scary woman.
Yeah.
lydia smith
She's skeevy.
tim pool
I don't think they, uh, any of these people actually care.
The interesting thing is it's like, based on what these people have done, I really do think that they're, uh, like, I think Rand Paul cares deeply.
That dude's got principles.
I like that guy.
He's like my favorite politician.
unidentified
Yeah.
I think Dan Crenshaw cares.
tim pool
I think Tulsi cares.
And I think Trump cares.
I think Trump cares about America.
But I think, in my opinion, when it comes to the president, he has this view of like, he has his view
of what America is, and that's what he cares about.
adam crigler
Yeah, that's a good point.
tim pool
Yeah, so where it's like, I don't know how to really kind of describe what I mean,
but I think Trump has more of a personal perspective on like, this is America and this is what I care about.
And he's trying to build America in this vision.
It's literally what he says, make America great again.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And so I look at someone like Rand Paul, it's relatively similar, the Constitution, constitutional rights, you know, but I think most of these people, There was a post on Reddit that went viral where they were like, stop thinking that anyone cares about you.
Trump doesn't care about you.
Bernie doesn't care about you.
Biden doesn't care about you.
They're crunching numbers.
They're asking their consultants what do they need to say to convince people to vote, and they're targeting markets.
That's all it is.
And you know what's crazy is I hear that, and I'm like, I don't know if I agree with that when it comes to Trump, because Trump is a culture war icon.
And the people who are voting for him, especially on social media, They're really invested in the culture war.
And so they're all about Trump, the memes, the cause, the movement.
And then you look at the opposition, and there's no politician behind that.
It's Trump or anti-Trump.
So I think it's fair to say Bernie doesn't care about you.
I think it's fair to say Biden doesn't care.
Biden for the most part.
I think Bernie cares a little bit.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And I don't think it's fair to say that Trump doesn't because Trump is a, you know, culture war.
You know, I think it's like he's here for his mission.
Then you look at Biden.
What's Biden there for?
To help the Clinton Foundation get back into getting hundreds of millions of dollars from the Saudis or something?
adam crigler
Maybe.
Yeah.
I think he's a placeholder.
unidentified
For who?
For what?
tim pool
What are they going to do?
adam crigler
I don't know who it's going to be, but I can't fathom him actually debating Trump.
tim pool
He's not going to do it.
adam crigler
He's not.
No, I don't see it happening.
tim pool
I don't know what he's going to do.
adam crigler
No.
tim pool
I don't know what's going to happen.
Everything is stupid.
Everyone's dumb.
Everything is dumb.
Should we talk about the whistleblower from Apple?
unidentified
We should.
tim pool
Because we got a bunch of other stories too.
adam crigler
Yeah, let's keep it moving.
unidentified
Sure.
tim pool
The reason I thought this story was something we absolutely had to talk about is because we had just done a big segment where I was like, they're not spying on you.
They're not listening.
They're just predicting your behavior.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
And now we have this guy, he's a whistleblower slamming Apple for wiretapping entire populations.
adam crigler
Oh, so they really were.
They really were listening.
tim pool
You know what, and I should clarify too, because I think I was absolutely inaccurate in phrasing everything I was saying about the spying.
They are spying on you, and I think, to clarify, They know exactly what you're going to do.
A lot of the ads you see are not because they're spying on you, but because they predict your behavior.
They also do spy on you.
lydia smith
They're also spying on you.
tim pool
Yeah, so there's a bunch of stories about, like, the Amazon device, whose name I will not say because it'll start talking, recorded a conversation and apparently law enforcement wanted access to the recording.
And Amazon was like, no.
And people were like, wait a minute.
Why is there a recording of this?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
It's like someone got murdered.
It's always recording.
And you try to explain to people, how do you think it knows when you say its name?
Because it's listening to you.
It has to listen.
So what people don't understand about how these devices work, because this is Siri in this story, it used to be very early on, it would be like, say this phrase three times, and then it would try and create a profile for you saying it, and it never works.
Because it'll be like, you know, the phrase will be like, you know, computer activate or something, right?
And then one day you're like tired and you go, computer activate.
It won't recognize you because when you first say it, you're like, computer activate.
And because you say it differently, it won't work.
So the way they do it now is the microphones are on.
When you talk, it's constantly sending what you say to a company to turn the speech into text until it gets the command and then it activates.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
It's really funny with the Amazon device, there's a whole bunch of words that you can say that are not its name that activate it.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
So long as they have the same vowels in the same order.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
So it's like, that's why it frequently turns on an accident, because it hears something close enough and Let's see what's going on.
A former Apple contractor revealed the firm's grading project last year.
Thomas Lee Boniak worked under a Siri grading project that gathered snippets of audio in order to improve the smart
assistant's accuracy.
Last year, Leboniak revealed to The Guardian that while working for Apple, he heard private and sometimes intimate
recordings, including medical discussions, criminal activity, sex, and
official business talks.
The whistleblower had initially remained anonymous, but has revealed himself in a protest against the lack of action taken against Apple for violating fundamental human rights, and he has done so with an open letter to European privacy regulators stating his concerns.
I just had a horrifying thought.
What if Alex Jones was right about everything?
adam crigler
Everything?
tim pool
Everything!
adam crigler
That's a bold statement though.
lydia smith
He was right about the frogs.
adam crigler
He said a lot of things.
tim pool
Well, it's... yeah, he said a lot of things.
I'm kidding by the way.
unidentified
Oh man.
adam crigler
Wait, what about the frogs?
tim pool
YouTube's finger over the band button.
Get ready to duck.
lydia smith
Oh, the frogs?
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
He turned the frogs game, man.
unidentified
Yeah.
adam crigler
That actually happened?
lydia smith
Atrazine.
Atrazine?
Okay, so atrazine in the water makes frogs less likely to reproduce.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
Well, it's a complicated story.
lydia smith
It is complicated.
adam crigler
Oh, is it complicated, then?
tim pool
I think it has been partially debunked, but there were initial studies showing that atrazine was mutating the endocrine systems of frogs.
So, they would have, like, their ovaries would become testes, testes ovaries, or hybridized, making them sterile or something.
And so, you know, Jones in his entertaining rage yells, they're turning the freaking frogs gay!
unidentified
I'd be mad too, I love frogs.
tim pool
I am kidding about him being right about everything, but the point I'm trying to make in saying that is,
right now we are under what's essentially a nationwide lockdown.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
People are being arrested for organizing protests.
The First Amendment is gone.
New York says you can't protest.
Sorry, shut up.
Meanwhile, people in New York City are jumping on top of cars and twerking and simulating sex.
Not exaggerating.
There's photos and videos popping up of this stuff.
And the cops don't do anything about it.
So we're literally watching everything fall apart.
Big businesses taking over.
adam crigler
Yeah, it's like they want all the businesses to close.
It's like part of their agenda, it feels like.
tim pool
I'm not, I'm not implying everything's intentional, but I'm just saying, like, all of these horrible government overreach things are happening.
No one's doing anything about it.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Apple is spying on everything you say.
You're tracking every move you make.
Boy, it really feels like all of these novels just merged into one and then just happened overnight.
It was like, what, three months ago, three months ago, life was normal.
adam crigler
Yeah, we saw movies.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Complained about Trump all day that they tried to impeach him.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Now it's like, now they complain about Trump, but they've also locked us in our homes.
lydia smith
Can't escape them complaining about Trump.
adam crigler
And they still pit it on Trump, like it's his fault still.
He's telling everyone, we want it open.
Let's open it up.
tim pool
But there's a disease.
lydia smith
There is, yeah.
tim pool
It's true.
Okay, hold on.
We've got a disease pandemic.
We've got big tech spying on us.
Social media censorship and thought manipulation.
Algorithmic manipulation to control what people can see and hear.
So you've got the government locked on top of that.
Yeah, I think we hit everything.
You know?
We got Brave New World, 1984, got a little bit of Animal Farm if you go back a couple decades.
adam crigler
I guess so.
tim pool
Yeah.
Yeah, we did it.
Was that the goal?
That's a joke I'm making with Jones, though.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
I'm not saying that their map of what was gonna happen was correct in terms of who's responsible, but we're going to end up now quarantined, mandatory government injections, shut your business down.
adam crigler
I still can't believe that's real.
tim pool
I mean, yeah, but we could argue just Dershowitz is a nut.
adam crigler
True.
tim pool
You know what happens after this is all over?
Some estimates say 40% of businesses will never reopen.
And there's a study from Axios saying 100,000 businesses have already permanently shuttered.
Those people are going to go work for big corporate chains afterwards.
adam crigler
It's the only choice they have.
tim pool
Yeah, let's read a little bit more about this here fella.
He says, There's not much vetting of who works there, and the amount of data that we're free to look through seems quite broad.
It wouldn't be difficult to identify the person that you're listening to, especially with accidental triggers, addresses, names, and so on.
The letter which Leblanc sent, uh, Leboniuk, sent to all European data protection regulators states, It is worrying that Apple, and undoubtedly not just Apple, keeps ignoring and violating fundamental rights and continues their massive collection of data.
I am extremely concerned that big tech companies are basically wiretapping entire populations despite European citizens being told the EU has one of the strongest data protection laws in the world.
Passing a law is not good enough.
It needs to be enforced upon privacy offenders.
Lebani held a subcontractor position at Apple's Cork offices, where he listened to snippets in both English and French until resigning in 2019.
They do operate on a moral and legal gray area, he told The Guardian at the time, and they have been doing this for years on a massive scale.
They should be called out in every possible way.
He continued to say that he would listen to thousands of recordings every day and have a range of Apple devices including iPhones Apple watches and iPads any device that included Siri Here's a question.
Are you are you always listening?
I only listen when you're talking to me Aren't you always talking to her if you're asking her saying her name?
lydia smith
Yeah, she thinks you're always talking to her.
That's the loophole.
tim pool
There you go This is actually a really hilarious story.
You know what?
I'm also in the vert.
I'm like, I'm so in the vert.
I'm so close to myself, uh, firing up a hot bath, lighting some candles and just laying back and just... Is the house on fire?
No, no.
Just, just, just relaxing.
Lower the, lower the blood temperature, uh, the, the, the, the blood pressure a little bit.
Like here's a guy who a year ago said, excuse me, um, these big tech companies are violating our rights.
unidentified
Shh.
tim pool
They did nothing about it.
adam crigler
Nothing.
That's, I don't know, it's not really surprising.
It's like they can pay to all these big companies.
They're just paying the appropriate people to just continue on doing what they're doing.
It's like, what is the average person supposed to do?
What can they do?
What can we do?
You know, what is it?
tim pool
If I said anything, we would be banned instantly.
The stream would be cut off.
adam crigler
Exactly.
tim pool
That's why I'm saying Boogaloo is on the horizon.
lydia smith
Yeah.
adam crigler
That's what I feel.
lydia smith
You feel like there's nothing you can do.
adam crigler
I agree.
Boogaloo.
tim pool
You've got people listening to you bang your significant other.
That's what he's saying.
adam crigler
It's messed up.
lydia smith
Yeah, like intentionally listening.
tim pool
Yep, and then tracking it or improving it.
unidentified
Improving it.
adam crigler
Oh my gosh.
tim pool
I don't, at this point, you know, I wonder how much stress that people can take.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
It's interesting because with the boogaloos of the past, we haven't had the internet and mass spying, and the security apparatus of the state hasn't been this strong.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
Now it's insanely strong.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
But we do have in a lot of areas the police refusing to enforce these rules.
adam crigler
Yeah, in certain states.
tim pool
I shouldn't even call them rules.
adam crigler
Which is cool.
unidentified
Decree.
adam crigler
Yeah, decrees.
unidentified
So arbitrary.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Yep.
So it's only a matter of time, I guess, before there's lines drawn between the mindless drones.
Like, New York City cops, I think, are the worst.
They really don't care about the Constitution.
adam crigler
Yeah, they don't.
tim pool
They really don't.
Small-town cops, sheriffs, and local departments seem to.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
I'm, I'm surprised about the Belmar police department where they're doing this.
And I have, uh, I have no respect for these mindless drones.
The, you know, I guess somebody associated with the gym said they're being forced to do it.
That's just absolutely not true.
Forced to, to violate the constitution.
What does it, what does it make sense?
Like you gotta make a choice, man.
If someone tells you to break the law and you do it, you're responsible.
Not the person who told you, I mean, you could argue the person who told you to do it is responsible as well.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Well, I don't know, man.
I guess people are going to keep defending it until we run out of food.
And that's what it's really about.
adam crigler
Once the food goes, then it doesn't matter what they say.
People are going to riot.
tim pool
Yeah.
So maybe there won't be though.
Maybe they know that.
Maybe they're just like, we'll just send food to your house.
I don't know.
It's because people need more than they need purpose.
And now that people have none, they're getting antsy and they want to get back to work.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
A part of me feels like it's going to blow over, right?
They're slowly reopening things.
adam crigler
Yeah, we keep saying that though.
And then a day goes by and something else happens that proves us wrong.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
You know, I want to believe it too.
I really want to, you know, I want to be happy and jolly and live, live.
And I want everyone to feel happy and, and satisfied in their life.
You know, I want that.
But, there's people out here that feel like, eh, it doesn't matter what you think.
We're going to do what we think is best for everyone, and you're going to sit and take it.
tim pool
They're burning down their own cities.
They're burning down their own states.
adam crigler
You know, I wrote that song, Find Yourself, like five years ago, and man, listening to the lyrics, reading the lyrics, singing it, I'm like, man, it is so relevant now than ever before.
It's insane.
tim pool
What's it about?
adam crigler
It's about people taking control and telling you what to believe and what you believe is wrong and what they say goes.
Are you just going to sit there and swallow it and take it?
Or are you going to stand up for your rights?
tim pool
That sounds like dangerous thinking, Adam.
Let's just stick to your work.
lydia smith
Head down, man.
adam crigler
Start a boogaloo.
I don't think I'm going to be the one who starts it.
They're doing it to themselves.
tim pool
kind of asking for it in.
So it feels like many states life has remained the same.
Yeah. Like people who have locally sourced goods.
Yeah. Probably have noticed a whole lot.
Yeah. It's the big cities that are the most heavily impacted.
Yeah. It's also the big the big cities where the people mostly want to stay
locked down. I think it's because these are, you know, you've seen the Hunger
adam crigler
I have.
tim pool
You have The Capital, and like everyone in The Capital is like wearing weird clothes and they eat too much and then drink Ipecac, vomit, and then keep eating again.
adam crigler
Yeah, yeah.
tim pool
That's how like gluttonous they are.
Those are the cities.
It really is.
These are people who, the example I like to give is The Bridges.
Living in New York, you've got all these bridges just there.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
Never watched them be built.
adam crigler
Taken for granted.
tim pool
Never did any work for them.
Never built them, like paid for it or anything.
Just there.
I don't got to think twice.
I don't got to pay anything.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
It's just there for me.
And so all of these people live in a world where they think things should just be there for them.
And that's where they're at now.
They're like, OK, we're not working.
I mean, man, you know what?
So many jobs in New York are not real jobs.
adam crigler
I agree.
tim pool
Like, you know, like what's a good example of a fake job?
Buzzfeed writer.
adam crigler
OK.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
That's a fake job.
lydia smith
Yeah, for sure.
adam crigler
Or like a club promoter?
lydia smith
Yeah.
adam crigler
Sure, it's a job, but... No, that's a real job.
Okay.
tim pool
That's a real job.
Sure.
Letting people know about libations and dancing and relaxation.
adam crigler
Sure.
tim pool
That's a real service for somebody.
unidentified
Okay.
tim pool
People need to really let off some steam.
adam crigler
Yeah, okay, I could see that, yeah.
tim pool
A fake job is like...
Scouring the internet to complain about... What was that article we saw the other day?
Ivanka Trump saying the word taken.
And then writing 500 words about how it's alt-right and dangerous.
That is not a real job.
adam crigler
Okay, I can agree with you there.
tim pool
So now that these people are no longer working their fake jobs, they still think things should just be given to them.
So they're sitting in their cubicle apartments, demanding the government pay them, and it only lasts so long until the government says no.
Meanwhile, the people who live out in the middle of nowhere, who have already... When we were driving to LA, we stopped in this town, I think it was in Arizona, I can't remember the name of it.
No social distancing, no lockdown, fast food chains were open.
It was a very small town, by the way.
And I went in, you know, to get stuff.
I had my mask, but I was like, nobody's wearing a mask, nobody cares.
So I grabbed some coffees, you know, I grabbed, you know, a sandwich or something, and I was paying for it, and I said, nobody's wearing a mask, no lockdown?
And the lady laughed, and she goes, no, we don't care about none of that.
And I was like, really?
You're not worried about getting sick?
And she's like, nope, don't care.
And I was like, what about, you know, supply chain stuff?
She goes, oh, we're all preppers.
I started laughing. I was like, really?
Yeah.
And she's like, yeah, the only thing we're worried about is when the power goes out.
And I was like, does it happen a lot?
She goes, happens. Yeah.
So we all have generators.
And I was like, OK.
lydia smith
Yeah. Those people were ready.
tim pool
Yeah. They did not care.
That's that's self-reliance because they have a town where they're like, we know
where our food's at.
It was funny, this lady told me, she's like, when everything went down, my husband turns to me and says, do you think we have enough toilet paper?
And I started laughing, and I was like, we're preppers!
She's like, we've got like three months worth.
And she laughed about it, like, why would you even ask?
I thought that was hilarious.
adam crigler
It was funny.
tim pool
Yeah, so what happens to these cities?
Like, they're just decaying.
adam crigler
Yeah.
I mean, if the food chain really does get disrupted, cities can't really exist anymore because they can't support that many people.
Farmers that already have farms, that know their neighbors, that have trade systems that will be naturally built up.
Those are, that's going to be what's going to survive.
You know, big cities, people are just going to riot and then leave to go find, you know, land where there is food.
tim pool
Is this like a natural occurrence for like a country where it's, it's, it's almost, it's going to purge the left.
I don't mean purging like end their lives.
I mean, it's going to, the ideology is going to be crushed.
And we've already seen, we've already talked about this, like social justice stuff has been really, really pushed aside.
And like I was saying earlier, the culture war has now become about lockdown versus, you know, opening up.
But with people, you know, so we actually have a funny story.
Let's jump to this next story.
Do I actually have it?
I do.
Here it is.
adam crigler
Oh yeah, this is kind of funny.
tim pool
Wealthy tenants are squatting in multi-million dollar homes in the Hamptons and refusing to pay rent after NY issued a non-eviction order due to the coronavirus crisis.
adam crigler
Of course.
tim pool
I will simultaneously say these people are extremely lucky and they're also really bad people.
So I'll give you the gist of the story.
When the lockdown started happening, wealthy people in New York fled, leaving behind all the poor people, all the shuttered businesses, and they go to the Hamptons.
Then New York State says moratorium on evictions.
So the people who are in these big mansions now are like, I was only planning on being here until August.
You can't evict me.
unidentified
I'm not paying.
tim pool
There you go.
adam crigler
That's crazy.
tim pool
So basically, I bring this up in the context of, with these lockdowns, cities are, it's almost like a pressure is being applied to them that's forcing people out in various directions.
All of the wealthy people, though.
What will this end up doing to these cities?
They're going to lose massive political power.
They're probably going to end up losing congressional seats because it's a census year.
It's going to change the ideology of so many people.
They take so many things for granted.
And then I wonder if 2024, it's going to be, you know, 538 Republican votes.
When I heard that story of people in New York and L.A.
flocking to gun stores, I laughed.
adam crigler
Yeah, it was pretty funny.
tim pool
All of a sudden, a crisis happens and they all instantly become Second Amendment advocates.
Let's read the story and see what the wealthy people are up to.
Then we'll talk about New York collapsing.
Some wealthy tenants in the Hamptons are using New York State's non-eviction order to squat in luxury while weathering out the coronavirus crisis local landlords have claimed.
One homeowner, who chose to remain anonymous but identified as middle class, said that short-term renters are overstaying at his property in Sag Harbor and refusing to pay rent.
Properties in the Hamptons rent for much less in the winter and early spring months, when the coronavirus outbreak began, but can ask for thousands more in the summer months.
We're not talking about poor people, the anonymous individual told the Post.
It's a very modest Sag Harbor house, and we use our summer rental to pay our son's school.
The squatter was paying $3,600 a month between October and March, but claimed he didn't have rent for April and dismissed the homeowner's request to vacate the property.
The landlord said he is now looking at huge losses for the year, $15,000 in May alone, with an extra $55,000 between Memorial Day and Labor Days.
New York Governor Andrew Cuomo has postponed rent payments until at least 20th of August to help those struggling during the coronavirus crisis.
The owner believes his tenants are using it as a free stay in his Long Island property.
adam crigler
Oh, that's definitely what they're doing.
lydia smith
Yeah, for sure.
tim pool
Similar scenes are playing out along the string of affluent seaside communities.
A female landlord in Watermill said her tenants, a mother and daughter, stopped paying their $1,600 rent in March when Governor Cuomo announced the move.
This is, uh, this is what people do.
Why would anybody... Why would anybody pay if they were told they didn't have to?
They don't care about you.
adam crigler
Exactly.
tim pool
The government said, don't pay?
I'm not gonna pay.
That's crazy, man.
There's no community left.
So I'm really curious about where this all ends up.
They're talking about the new normal, you know?
What's the new normal after this?
No one shakes hands anymore?
We all bow?
We act very Asian-like?
adam crigler
Yeah, maybe.
lydia smith
Lots of masks.
tim pool
A lot of masks.
It is.
The customs, people wear masks more often.
They don't shake hands, they bow.
And that'll be just inherent social distancing.
But I wonder if it also, the new normal is gonna be New York loses three congressional seats.
I'm exaggerating greatly.
They've lost 420,000 wealthy people.
But how many other people have fled the city?
How many people have left Los Angeles or spread out?
Maybe, maybe this was going to, you know, greatly, I mean, look, I'm talking about getting out of Jersey, a blue state, and going somewhere else where I can be free, you know, and not have to deal with this stuff.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
So these people are absolutely taking advantage of this.
And I, you know, these are, these are, these are, these are New York City folk, man.
I'm not surprised.
When given the opportunity, they take advantage.
They're not, they're not poor.
They don't want to pay.
They won't.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
They say the homeowner has cancer and is looking to start chemotherapy soon.
She said she is afraid she will lose her home and doesn't know how she'll cope with the stress of that and treatment.
She could be earning $90,000 this summer, she told the Post, and she even offered the tenants a one-off payment to coax them out before peak season.
Oh my gosh.
I'm really confused by this story.
I've offered money to leave and even found her other places to move to that she could afford but they aren't in the Hamptons
and she is refusing to leave, the tenant said.
She added, this is when we make our money in the summer.
The tenant is looking for a free rent in the Hamptons.
I'm really confused by this story because I don't know exactly how Antifa and the far left will react to it.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Who am I supposed to be mad at?
The rich people refusing to pay their fair share or the wealthy landlords from the Hamptons?
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
It's just rich people refusing to pay each other.
lydia smith
What the heck?
adam crigler
It reminds me of this article that I read.
It was silly.
It was basically this person complaining that they found out they were being overcharged for everything from their private jet.
Like, everything costs way too much.
They're overcharging me on every service on my private jet.
And I was just like, what are you, who are you talking to?
Like, who's this article for?
tim pool
Who's reading it?
adam crigler
Yeah, what?
lydia smith
I'm not your target audience.
adam crigler
I don't care.
tim pool
The seven people.
adam crigler
You have the money.
What does it matter?
Pay it.
lydia smith
What are you complaining about?
adam crigler
I don't care.
tim pool
You know, it's really, really weird.
Come on.
There really is this really interesting class divide.
So I know people who do almost no work and make ridiculous amounts of money just because of the class they are in.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
So I'll give you an example.
If you're if you're lower class and you make minimum wage and then you are like, hey, look, I made this necklace.
Someone will be like, I'll give you five bucks for it.
If you are upper class and you're sitting on the beach of, you know, you're in what's what's that what's that place in Spain?
I can't think of the name.
adam crigler
Ibiza?
tim pool
Ibiza!
unidentified
Boom!
adam crigler
I knew what you were talking about.
tim pool
Yes, Ibiza.
So you're sitting on this crystal, you know, shore, clear waters, and you lean over and you're like, I made this beautiful necklace.
Ooh, I want it.
How much?
A thousand dollars.
Okay.
That's seriously what it's like.
It's amazing.
So I know people who are just in the upper class and they talk about a basic job that normally would be cheaper, but because they're rich, they simply just charge that much money.
And it's like, They all pay it to each other, so it creates this economy at an upper level, and once you break into that, then you can bask in that as well.
And there are other ways to make a lot of money, volume and stuff, but it's fascinating to me when I've met people who are like, I'm going to get a job starting at this tech firm, I know the person who runs it, they're gonna pay six figures, and I'm like, why would they do that?
That's just because they're all part of the same class.
And it's also, like, the clothes you make, right?
Like, look at Gwyneth Paltrow's stuff.
Like, is the goop stuff she makes in any way that special?
adam crigler
It's gross.
tim pool
Do you ever see the show called The Real Hustle?
No.
It was a British show, I think it was British, and it was three con artists explaining various cons.
It was an awesome show.
One of them, they rent a pop-up storefront, and they buy, I think they bought like Lubriderm lotion, and they just repackage it in these tiny little bottles, and they give it a brand name like, you know, Mountain Mist Made, and then they sell it for like 30 bucks, and they just brag about how it's the best, and people pay for it.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
And that's kind of like what it is when, you know, when you're doing trade among people who are poor, you can only ask for so much because of how much they have.
When you're doing trade among people who are rich, you can ask for obscene amounts of money because they just have it and they pay what they, you know, disposable income like, oh yes, absolutely.
And so then you have a lot of people Man, I know some people who are rich and work like once every three years.
adam crigler
That's crazy.
tim pool
Yep.
They'll be like, I got one project to work on this week.
And then they get 300 grand.
And then they're like, I just, you know, spread it out over three years.
Just, you know, eight grand a month to spend and do whatever I want.
Fly around, take, you know, every weekend, fly to Europe for a vacation and then fly back and just do one thing every few years.
And that's how it is.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
And those are the people that are making decisions too.
Those are the people that are in charge.
They're the ones in the government.
They get a hold of that.
They, they, like you said, it's like you can get into that and then you, then you become used to it.
And that's the type of mentality you, you gain also.
So these, these officials, you know, they might champion for the people, but then they get in there and then they're like, all right, now I'm on a different stage, a different level.
So I'm going to, I'm going to stay here and I don't want to lose this power.
And, uh, I'm going to make, I'm going to make decisions for everyone.
tim pool
AOC's a great example.
adam crigler
Exactly.
tim pool
You know, everyone makes fun of her because she was a bartender and I'm like, I actually
think that's kind of endearing.
You know, that she was a regular American and she won and now she's in Congress.
And now.
Yeah, right.
Now she squanders all of that goodwill by being an insufferable, you know, what's the
You know, just desperate for fame and attention.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Ostentatious.
Very, very, very much that.
She goes on Twitter and she says things that are bombastic and insightful and it's just doing nothing for nobody.
lydia smith
Inciting.
tim pool
I think she might lose.
New York is going to be a transformed place.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
I think she might lose, man.
I watched a part of that debate that she did with that other lady, and I feel like she's going to lose.
lydia smith
I hope so.
tim pool
Because she's an internet candidate.
She's not a candidate of a place.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
She's Twitter's candidate.
adam crigler
That's a good point.
tim pool
Twitter's not going to elect her, though.
unidentified
No.
tim pool
It's her district that'll elect her.
adam crigler
And good.
tim pool
Yeah, seriously.
We've all seen what Twitter is like.
I can't predict.
I can see so many potential futures.
You know, what could happen after all this is over.
But it's hard to know.
It's hard to know.
I just absolutely don't.
Can only just speculate.
With losing 420,000 people, rich people who are now squatting in the Hamptons, in a census year, does that mean, what, in 2022, that New York City loses a district?
adam crigler
Probably.
tim pool
It could be AOCs.
They've been talking about getting rid of a district.
adam crigler
Oh, already?
tim pool
Yeah.
And what about all these other cities?
Or better yet, what if people already filled out their census and are now gone permanently?
And so now you have smaller populations with disproportionate amount of power, and then you'll end up seeing really weird things from this.
Like New York City has less people, but somehow is overrepresented.
And then you'll end up with an inversion where the popular vote goes to the Republican because there's more people outside of cities.
lydia smith
It might, you know, it might, okay, so I was thinking about this while you were talking, it might go that way because the people who have to stay in the city are the people who do the blue collar jobs, the essential workers, and those people tend to be less college educated, which, I'm gonna say it, they tend to vote Republican, they tend to be conservative, so when the time comes for them to vote, they're gonna vote Republican, and they're, we're gonna see, I think you're right, I think it's gonna flip, it's gonna be really weird.
tim pool
Flip in what way do you mean though?
lydia smith
Toward the Republicans.
tim pool
Like New York City?
lydia smith
Yeah, like that region.
tim pool
I think AOC's district could turn red.
lydia smith
I'm curious.
tim pool
Because normally, when she ran, there was no real Republican contender because it's a D plus 30 district.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
But I think it's possible that AOC is... It's possible.
I'm not saying to what percentage I know for sure, but she's so unpopular.
It's possible she's so unpopular that now that you see all these Republicans are running, they launch real campaigns, generate real support, and then win.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
So I know it's a D plus 30 district, but AOC, I think she only got like, I don't know, how many, can you look up how many votes she got?
lydia smith
17,000 I thought?
tim pool
No, no, no, in the general.
lydia smith
Oh yeah, I'll look.
tim pool
In the general election.
So I think it was something like 170 maybe, I'm not entirely sure, out of 750,000.
That means even though it's a D plus 30 district, if the 20 or 30 percent of Republicans who lived there actually all voted, they'd win.
And a district in New York would turn red.
That would be insane.
Absolutely insane.
Did you find it or no?
Well, forget it.
Let's just jump to Super Chats.
lydia smith
Yeah, let's do it.
tim pool
We're going to jump to Super Chats.
So YouTube is broken.
As for those that have been watching, we mentioned this.
I have no idea.
adam crigler
Oh, it's still frozen.
tim pool
Totally frozen.
unidentified
Yeah.
adam crigler
We got almost 11,000 people watching right now.
tim pool
But we do have the Super Chats, so if you haven't already, hop in the Super Chats, smash that like button.
unidentified
Smash it!
tim pool
Everybody, right now.
Because we are in... What's a better example of everyone... The Hunger Games?
We're in the Hunger Games.
adam crigler
Maybe like a prequel?
tim pool
No, no, I mean like with Joe Rogan leaving.
Yeah, they are like a TV show, I guess.
I mean, that sounds fun.
With Joe Rogan leaving YouTube, you know, now we all have to fight and, you know, knock each other off the hill, the mountain, as we climb to the top.
adam crigler
That's what you're talking about.
unidentified
Right, right, right.
tim pool
So I'm basically saying we are now entering in the political commentary podcasting, cultural podcasting space, a death match.
adam crigler
I will represent us, Tim.
Isn't that how it works out?
lydia smith
I don't know.
tim pool
We are going to be crawling over bodies in rubble as we claw our way to the top where we'll finally plant the flag with our clothes tattered, eye hanging out, blood everywhere.
unidentified
It's ours!
adam crigler
Slam that flag down.
tim pool
But the only way we'll do it is if you smash the like button.
Actually, half kidding.
But hop in the super chat if you want.
We're gonna read your comments now and then, you know, just whatever.
Complain about stuff, I guess.
Seems to be what we always do.
Oh, do you have the Babylon Bee list?
adam crigler
Did you pull it up?
I could, pretty quickly.
tim pool
So, the first comment is, Hey Tim, the Babylon Bee made a list of overly gendered language to make fun of the UN list.
Also, happy World Bee Day.
The bug bee, not the satire bee.
lydia smith
The Babylon Bee.
adam crigler
It's so funny.
tim pool
I'll pull it up.
Drop it in the list so we can pull it up.
lydia smith
Yeah, we were talking about that earlier, laughing.
tim pool
Patrick says Matt Lauer's critique of the Our Pharaoh book.
unidentified
This is insane.
tim pool
Matt Lauer.
Proved.
As far as I can tell, confirmed.
Ronan Farrow lied in his book as it pertains to Matt Lauer.
This is crazy.
I owe Matt Lauer an apology.
I absolutely do.
I can't say for everything, but I can say that I have frequently said Matt Lauer was a bad person.
Mediaite published this story for Matt Lauer and independently confirmed that Ronan Farrow didn't fact check and actually I'm just gonna, I'm gonna call it like I see it live.
One of the things they call out, this is crazy, is that Ronan Farrow said that he had discovered seven other women who had, you know, complained about sexual harassment who had worked for Matt Lauer.
And at first reading it, I'm like, okay, what's the catch?
And then Matt Lauer points it out.
It wasn't about him.
It was just seven women he had worked with at some point who had complained about other people.
But Ronan Farrow framed it that way to make it seem like they were all complaining about Matt Lauer, like he was this bad guy.
They also apparently debunked this crazy story that he had a button on his desk that would lock the door to his room.
Crazy stories.
So he writes this, and they're a lefty publication.
Published a note saying they contacted four witnesses for each of these different points made by Lauer and independently verified this was true.
Ronan Farrow didn't fact-check these things.
The story was fake news.
This is huge, so maybe I'll cover it more in depth tomorrow, but prepare to see... I'm gonna say, you know what, man?
This is preliminary.
I don't know to what extent this is likely to occur.
I think Harvey Weinstein might actually petition for a retrial based on the information that just came out about all this, arguing that it was fake news.
You wanna read these?
adam crigler
Oh my gosh.
Go ahead, pop it up.
unidentified
So this is the list.
tim pool
Are we gonna get in trouble for this?
lydia smith
Maybe.
adam crigler
I don't know.
It's hilarious though.
tim pool
So the UN published a list of words you're supposed to say.
Babylon Bee wrote a funnier one.
So the one written by the UN made no sense.
It said, like, instead of saying landlord, say owner.
Which is like a hundred times more racist and offensive.
lydia smith
Yeah, don't say that.
tim pool
So this is great.
I love this one.
Nurse.
Female almost doctor.
Stewardess.
Don't say stewardess, say plain wench.
Don't say doctor, say medicine man.
Don't say president, say presidude.
Don't say letter carrier, say mail man.
And that's M-A-L-E.
Don't say husband, say master.
That one's bold.
lydia smith
I love it.
tim pool
Don't say pastor, say preacher man.
Scientist is mansplainer.
Video game healer is character option for girls.
lydia smith
Oh my goodness.
tim pool
I like playing healer sometimes.
It's fun.
adam crigler
I do too, actually.
tim pool
Instead of saying manager, say bossman.
Instead of saying housekeeper, say wife.
And secretary is phone answering lady.
The Babylon Bee is great, man.
They're really good.
They're killing it, man.
adam crigler
They really are.
lydia smith
That's wonderful.
I'm so glad they updated that list for us.
tim pool
Yeah.
All right, all right, let's go back to these.
adam crigler
Thank you, Babylon.
tim pool
Let's go back to these super chats.
Odiz says, greetings from Sweden.
Adam, if you and your wife are ever close to Stockholm, I'll take you horse riding.
My treat as thanks.
Tim can come too.
lydia smith
Very cool.
adam crigler
Sounds cool.
tim pool
Well, what you can do is follow Adam.
It's over there.
adam crigler
Yeah, follow me.
tim pool
Oh, down there.
adam crigler
And hit me up.
That sounds awesome.
We actually did live outside Stockholm for a little while, and it's a beautiful area.
It's cool.
tim pool
If you guys want to submit story ideas, follow Adam and you can send him information, stories, pictures.
adam crigler
Over there on the other side of the screen, you can see it.
tim pool
And you can also follow me just down there at Timcast if you want to see skateboarding and cats and stuff on Instagram or on Twitter.
I complain about culture and politics.
adam crigler
Oh yeah, I'm on Instagram also.
Hit me up on Instagram.
tim pool
Skateboarding, cats, and complaints.
adam crigler
And YouTube.
tim pool
Let's see, where we at?
Nathan says, broke out my enjoy board this week and realized all of my shoes are destroyed.
What brands do you and Adam like?
I have skated America Reynolds shoes for years.
Before that, I was Osiris, DC, and Etnies.
adam crigler
We both rock Vans for the longest time.
You skate in Vans.
tim pool
One pair.
I'm riding Footpath right now.
adam crigler
Well, now you are.
You just switched shoes today.
tim pool
Well, yeah, but I had one pair of Vans.
I had those footpaths longer than I had these Vans.
adam crigler
You've never skated them, though.
tim pool
The footpath ones?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
No, I have three pairs.
I actually don't like two of them.
The ones I'm wearing now are amazing.
adam crigler
Yeah, I've always been a fan of skating Vans, but since I've been vegan, I've been trying to get, you know, vegan versions of things and there's Vans, like the canvas vans, they just shred apart so fast.
tim pool
You skate one day.
adam crigler
I know.
And then all of a sudden my foot's getting ripped up.
But, I mean, the shoe goo.
Boom.
I mean that, honestly, any shoe that I get, I could just put that on and it just will work fine.
Because I got the vegan Etnies.
They actually have like a whole section of these pretty awesome shoes.
They're really good.
tim pool
It's like vegan suede or something?
adam crigler
No, I mean, it's pretty much the same.
I mean, there's this plastic part that comes up on the lip where you would kick.
tim pool
Yeah, right.
adam crigler
So it's pretty sweet.
I like them a lot.
They're really comfortable.
tim pool
Canvas wears down a lot, but the secret for all of you who want to skate.
adam crigler
Here it is.
tim pool
Don't, so there's something called shoe goo, it's basically like a rubber cement.
Don't put that on your shoe after you've worn a hole into it.
That's what I see so many people do.
They'll skate their shoe, they'll get a hole, and then they'll put shoe goo over the hole.
Nah.
Put shoe goo over the stitching, and the side of the laces, and you will never have to worry about it.
The first thing you do, right when you buy the shoe.
So I have these, I'm gonna give a shout out to Neen Williams, by the way.
He's a pro skateboarder.
He did this promo for Footpath, and so I got some shoes.
adam crigler
They're pretty dope.
tim pool
They're amazing.
adam crigler
I mean, they're suede, but they're dope.
These are really good shoes.
tim pool
So I normally, I would skate Vans, and then I burned my Vans out, and now I have this pair that I haven't skated in yet, and I skated them today, and they're epic.
So I put a thin layer of Shoe Goo around the stitching, which guarantees it will never break.
It's, you know.
They'll eventually break, right?
What I mean is they won't break soon.
Yeah.
So, uh, before, before this, I've been skating vans for, for years and I really liked decline shoes.
And the first... I've skated those.
adam crigler
Those are good.
tim pool
My favorite shoes when I was a teenager that I'd skate all the time were the Reynolds.
The first ones were the Reynolds that were like, they looked, man, the whole thing was rubber, basically.
It had like ridiculous amounts of thermoplastic rubber toe cap.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
But then eventually I liked the, uh, the America bevel was one of my favorite shoes ever.
adam crigler
I don't know.
tim pool
It was just a thin, I love the really, really thin shoes.
Just the feel of the board.
Light and thin.
I don't care about cushioning.
You know, I don't need that padding, you know, junk or whatever.
adam crigler
I have some skater friends that swear by the Nike SBs.
They're really, they're really light.
I've never, I've never actually skated them, but I've, I picked them up and I'm like, wow, they're really light.
unidentified
Yeah.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Light is good.
All right, let's see.
Abysmal, thanks for the super chat.
Mark Robert Shaw says, after this I'm going to watch Joe Rogan's podcast with Tony Hawk.
Rip YouTube, your monopoly is coming to an end, as all monopolies do, and I bet Tim will vote Trump because of the economy.
That's seeming like a good possibility, simply because...
If the Democrats could muster any, anyone, I've been begging, please, just pick somebody who can talk.
No, no, sorry.
lydia smith
Asking too much there.
tim pool
You would be insane to think that after all of this, the president who has advocated for lifting the restrictions, whose attorney general has advocated for the constitution, and who has actually proven on the economy, you'd be crazy if you think Biden is going to be the person that people want.
That's just psychotic in my opinion.
The only people I think who would vote for Biden are Trump derangement syndrome people.
adam crigler
Yeah, maybe.
tim pool
It's like, you really, you know, that's like Bill Maher when he said, vote blue no matter who.
Well, no, no.
Well, yes.
Bill Maher said, if the recession gets rid of Trump, bring on the recession.
adam crigler
Yeah, I remember that.
tim pool
That is beyond a Trump Derangement Syndrome.
That is like, I want everyone to suffer so that I can feel better because the orange man is gone.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
That's insane, dude.
My attitude is different.
My attitude is, the economy needs to be repaired so that people can get on with their lives and be happy and be free and, you know.
And if that means the mean, nasty guy wins, I'm like, well, that's for the good of the people, not for what I think is the right thing, you know.
adam crigler
I couldn't help myself.
tim pool
He's spinning the UFO.
adam crigler
I noticed it wasn't spinning and I looked down at chat and someone was like, spin the UFO.
And I was like, I was like, I got you.
lydia smith
Looking out for you.
There it is.
tim pool
I see people spinning it.
They're saying, spin it, spin it.
And now there's actually a lag on the, on the, uh, the stream.
So I can see the chats coming in where they're yelling, spin it.
But on the actual stream, you haven't done it yet.
unidentified
Nice.
All right.
tim pool
Let's read some more.
Roberto, thanks for the super chat.
Minimax says, glad to hear that Joe Rogan experience will still have video on Spotify.
That way we can all see the gumbo on Tim's shirt if slash when he's back on.
That's right, the gumbo.
Meximan says, idea to a great community.
Video of Joe sniffing and groping with VO of the women and girls whispering, blue no matter who, blue no matter who.
lydia smith
Oh no, traumatic.
tim pool
Brian says, I cannot read what Brian says.
Charles says, the UK just made organ donations an opt-out system.
So all adults, now if they know it or not, are organ donors.
As an organ donor, that creeps me out.
Yeah, I think so.
Chubble says, rev up those big igloos because I am sure sick of the degeneration of our civil liberties.
Yep.
R. Kelly says, Tulare County in California just reopened, defying the governor.
Wow.
I've been to Tulare.
adam crigler
Awesome.
tim pool
Crazy.
Yeah.
Josh says, Tim, come to Madison.
Great city with a lot of opportunity, plus cheaper rent than Jersey.
Plus you won't be too far from Chicago.
I don't like Chicago.
Apple says, hey guys, heard one of you were playing Final Fantasy VII Remake.
Don't care about the story or graphics, but thoughts on the Materia system in the game?
adam crigler
I really liked it.
I wish there was more.
tim pool
Was it the same as the original?
adam crigler
Yeah, they kept it really close.
It's, uh, when you master it, you don't get a new one.
So I was like a little bummed and it felt really, it felt like they are leaving it so that when they bring out episode two, that maybe you can upgrade it more.
I, I'm not really sure.
I'm, I'm speculating there, but, uh, I, I did enjoy it.
I liked it.
tim pool
Cool.
Roberto says, Yo quiero soy taco.
What, what I, I, I, I want, I am taco.
Idget Idget says, I've been baking a ton of sourdough bread through this quarantine.
I'm really happy for all the people who have been able to work on their hobbies during their free time.
People have been going nuts on sourdough.
lydia smith
Why are they baking so much?
tim pool
It's like viral memes of making sourdough.
lydia smith
This is all we wanted to do while we're working.
tim pool
To be honest, we've made a ton of bread, too.
lydia smith
Yeah, we have.
adam crigler
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
We is not correct.
I have yet to make any bread.
tim pool
Your peripheral involvement is all that- Of me going, hmm, bread.
lydia smith
Yes.
Delicious.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
How about, how about we were making a bread and Lydia put butter in it and I said, no, no, you can't do that.
And then I rinsed it out and you said, thanks, Tim.
adam crigler
That's true.
tim pool
That was it.
unidentified
You did contribute.
lydia smith
And I put butter in.
adam crigler
I got to respect that.
tim pool
Yeah, we were gracing the pan and I was like, we have peanut oil instead of butter.
adam crigler
I have eaten the bread though.
I have consumed the bread.
It has been delicious.
tim pool
We made a lot of instant breads, beer breads and stuff.
adam crigler
We gotta get more of that beer bread.
tim pool
We have a ton.
lydia smith
We just need to make it.
tim pool
I mean, there's some in there now.
adam crigler
I refuse to make bread.
Now I have to stand by my principles.
tim pool
We also, we also got a bunch of this like, it's, it's gluten-free sourdough, but it lasts forever.
It's like the best bread.
It's like the best, the best gluten-free bread.
adam crigler
Interesting.
tim pool
As good as it can get.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
But it's like, it doesn't need to be refrigerated and it lasts for months.
Cause I think it's cause it's made of rice and like potato flour or something, but it really, it's really good.
adam crigler
Cool.
tim pool
Oh, here we go.
Kyla says, Re, carbon fiber decks.
Checked.
Lithe skateboards.
Also go to DKL Skateboarding and check out the... check the non-abrasive grip.
Braille covered both.
Ooh, so is the non-abrasive grip kind of like a plastic sticky thing?
adam crigler
Yeah, I don't know.
unidentified
Maybe?
adam crigler
Interesting.
tim pool
That would be really interesting.
adam crigler
Non-abrasive.
tim pool
Your shoes will last forever.
adam crigler
Yeah, yeah.
I like it.
That sounds good.
Yeah, thank you.
tim pool
Jeb Reed says, Open Combat coming to the USA.
Starts July 4th.
We'll see.
Eman Sol says, if you don't like your government, follow the constitution and abolish it.
Create something new.
One of my favorite memes was V for Vendetta with the headset on.
And the top line, top text is, your government is doing what?
Have you tried turning it off and turning it back on again?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Yeah.
That's a good one.
Turning it up and back on again.
Let's see.
Uh, Yiz says, false hope from the right.
Empty promises from the left.
Fake news 24 seven.
If WuFlu revealed anything is that our leadership doesn't care about us.
Yes, they don't.
lydia smith
Yeah, I've been telling you this.
tim pool
A tiny, tiny fraction of people.
Michelle Maibel says, Governor DeSantis took the media out behind the woodshed.
He is my government employee of the day.
He really did.
lydia smith
Oh, man.
tim pool
He took them to task.
lydia smith
Did not pull punches.
tim pool
Look, man, they have attacked South Dakota and Florida.
But New York is the death pit.
OK, New York is the epicenter.
It's where most people have lost their lives.
Yet the media keeps attacking all these Republican states for not locking down.
And they did everything To the best of their ability, relatively better than New York did.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
It's crazy.
It's crazy.
These States that were like, we're locking down and now more people are dead there.
And the States that were like, we're not gonna lock down.
Everything's better.
adam crigler
Yep.
tim pool
Perhaps the sunlight and being outside was the smart move.
adam crigler
Yeah.
Maintaining your immune system.
That's what those doctors were talking about.
tim pool
Yep.
And they got, and they got deleted from YouTube for it.
adam crigler
Yep.

of Hollywood types around for interviews flights to every city all day long
But isn't it muggy?
Have you been to Atlanta?
Yes I have.
adam crigler
Yeah, it's pretty bad.
Once you get to the lower half of the states, it gets pretty muggy.
It's not as bad as Florida.
tim pool
Florida was nuts, man.
adam crigler
Not many states are as bad as Florida.
tim pool
When we lived in Miami, there's like, what, two months where you could go outside?
It's like either boiling hot and humid, and every single... You have to swim through the air.
Yeah, right.
Every single building, the windows are drenched in condensation because of the air conditioning on inside.
That's true.
I'm pretty sure about this.
Miami has a statue for the guy who invented air conditioning.
adam crigler
Really?
tim pool
Yeah.
That sounds about right.
lydia smith
That's fair, yeah.
It's a good idea.
tim pool
All the people who begrudgingly lived in that place and then air conditioning got invented and now they're like, oh, we can live here.
Now we can be comfortable.
lydia smith
Thank you.
tim pool
Let's see.
The Gray Gamer says, would you allow your fans to try and save your channel if YouTube?
I've been watching you for years now every day.
If you just disappeared, something would definitely be missing from my daily life.
adam crigler
That's nice to say.
tim pool
I mean, look, if videos got taken, whenever videos get taken down of mine, I contact people at Google and I'm like, you know, like screaming.
lydia smith
Just like that, yeah, like a cat.
tim pool
And for the most part, there's hard lines where they're like, too bad.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
So sad.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
I got really close to destroying everything, I'll be honest.
adam crigler
Oh, really?
tim pool
Yeah, when they told me I couldn't say the name Voldemort, I sent legal threats.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
Like, I went nuts.
And then I actually planned on doing a recorded video where I explained everything and said the guy's name as often as possible, and then uploaded it for every segment of the day.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
I was like, I'm going to do it.
I'll make a graphic.
And then they got back to me.
There was a bit some de-escalation.
And then basically what they told me was, you know, it's kind of like we're waiting
until it enters the national conversation when bigger outlets are covering it and people
feel more comfortable and it's a bigger story.
And so I was like, okay, I'll wait, I guess.
And then they never released the lockdown.
Like, you cannot say the name.
I was really close, just like, you know what, I'm done.
I'm done with this.
Because that's scary, dude.
Rand Paul spoke on the Senate floor, and Google said, we don't care.
You can't say this.
They took down, they took down C-SPAN.
C-SPAN.
lydia smith
The most boring channel in the world.
tim pool
The most boring channel.
Because Rand Paul was talking on the Senate floor in a live C-SPAN video.
YouTube deleted it.
adam crigler
I have to hold back a yawn.
I'm so over that conversation.
lydia smith
Look up Rand Paul.
You'll be inspired.
tim pool
STFU says, I talk fast because it's complicated and I'm going to leave it there since I'm one-fourth Asian and grew up in Chicago, but I'm a milquetoast fence-sitter.

In Kansas, ten acres and two ponds.
Fishing and ducks, you can't win.
Louis Estrada says, Tim, you, Tim Pool.
Will you ever go back to do on-the-ground interviews, or is Antifa too wild nowadays?
That was basically the gist of it.
As time went on and I gained more followers, it wasn't just about Antifa.
It was about other people just generally trolling and harassing.
So it's like, there was one moment where I went to cover something and I had literally a guy chasing me around giggling and laughing and screaming my name and trying to get Antifa to find me.
adam crigler
Wow.
tim pool
And the police said, we're like, it's free speech, you can't do anything about it.
And I was like, he's inciting people to attack me.
And they're like, okay, well then when he does, and I'm like, that means I have to stand next to you the whole time.
And the cop was like, yep.
adam crigler
Great.
tim pool
So it just became a waste of time.
That's unfortunate.
Timothy E says, Tim, move to Kansas City.
Cheap international airport, light traffic.
Kansas or Missouri, you ask?
Yes.
unidentified
Missouri.
tim pool
It's gotta be East Coast, man.
adam crigler
Missouri's muggy also.
tim pool
That's true.
lydia smith
Very green.
It's very cool.
tim pool
It's hard to find somewhere that doesn't have, that isn't muggy, you know what I mean?
adam crigler
Yeah.
lydia smith
Desert.
adam crigler
That's a good point.
unidentified
Oof.
lydia smith
Yeah.
adam crigler
You need some humidity, man.
It's a different kind of heat, though.
tim pool
Arizona?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Is it mountain time?
lydia smith
Yeah.
adam crigler
Yeah, I have no idea.
Actually, no, Arizona never changes.
It's always the same time.
unidentified
I don't know what it is.
tim pool
I honestly have no idea.
Okay.
Dr. B says, I pity the pool who don't read my super chat.
Well, I just did.
Thorin says, let's all take a moment to appreciate exactly how much power the establishment is attempting to grab.
It's like Leia said.
Yeah, I went there.

The harder you tighten your grip, the more they slip through your fingers.
Ooh, interesting.
Alex Aiello says, the Snyder Cut is near.
DC Redemption arc.
I am excited for this.
adam crigler
I hope so.
tim pool
I'm excited for this.
Cause I, this is controversial apparently, but I like DC more than Marvel.
Yes.
unidentified
Spicy.
tim pool
We went to, I can't remember what movie we went to see.
adam crigler
Yeah, but this is probably longstanding though.
It's not like the new movies have swayed you.
You probably liked DC more than Marvel for a long time.
tim pool
Absolutely.
adam crigler
Yeah.
Yeah.
tim pool
I like, look, they're both, you know, it's like Marvel's a 9.5 and DC's a 10.
You know what I mean?
adam crigler
What's the X-Men?
Is that Marvel?
tim pool
Marvel.
adam crigler
Okay.
unidentified
Yeah.
Yeah.
adam crigler
I was a big X-Men fan.
tim pool
Yeah, X-Men's cool.
One way it was explained to me is that DC is heroes trying to be like people, and Marvel is people trying to be heroes.
It's actually an interesting way to explain it.
adam crigler
Yeah, yeah, that makes sense.
tim pool
But I like Batman.
There's issues with Batman, he's just like super rich, you know what I mean?
But he was trained really, really well.
The contrast between him and say like Iron Man in terms of their abilities is that Iron
Man isn't.
He's just an arrogant, drunk genius.
Batman was peak physical human condition and I really like that.
What I really, really liked about DC was the fact that, and Marvel does have these heroes
too, especially the MCU.
Most of the MCU characters, I believe, don't have any superpowers.
It's just technology, gadgets and stuff.
adam crigler
Most of them, yeah.
tim pool
Yeah, yeah.
But some of them do have powers.
adam crigler
Like Ant-Man, it's just technology.
tim pool
Technology, and then Falcon, technology.
Iron Man, War Machine, technology.
adam crigler
War Machine, yeah.
tim pool
Yeah, yeah.
And then a couple of them have powers.
But in most of the Marvel stuff I would read and stuff I would see growing up, it's like they all had powers.
But then you have DC and I remember this... I can't remember exactly what happened in one of the Justice League cartoon episodes.
It's probably in the comic too.
Where they're trying to interrogate someone and he's laughing and mocking them.
And then Batman walks up and whispers to him and the guy panics and just says, I'll tell you whatever you want to know.
And that was really awesome that...
You know, Batman doesn't have powers, but through hard work, perseverance, training, and intelligence, he was one of the, he's, he's like the most powerful hero, basically.
Yeah.
And, uh, one thing I, uh, one, I know this is going to spark, uh, a debate among comic fans, but one of the ideas is that Batman can defeat literally anyone with enough time.
I'm sure there's an argument, like he'll never beat Galactus or something, but like- Or Darkseid.
adam crigler
Like, eh.
tim pool
There's... No, he will.
Absolutely.
Okay.
unidentified
100%.
adam crigler
By himself?
tim pool
Yep.
Yeah, he beat Superman.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
That's why Batman vs. Superman.
Kryptonite.
It wasn't even just about the Kryptonite, but yes.
adam crigler
Wait, our mothers have the same name?
unidentified
That was so dumb.
Oh my gosh.
adam crigler
Isn't that what it was?
Is that what you're talking about?
lydia smith
Never again.
adam crigler
That cringey moment?
lydia smith
Never again.
tim pool
The actual comic was great.
adam crigler
It's like, oh my gosh.
tim pool
Older Batman beats Superman to let him know, like, you're vulnerable.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And they could have done that in the movie.
I don't get it.
Okay, you guys have seen Batman vs. Superman.
adam crigler
That's all they had to say, right there, in that moment.

Here's the scene.
Batman is wearing the armor, and it's all messed up, and he finally just bests Superman, and he takes the spear with Kryptonite, and then he's about to finish him off, and then, you know, Lois comes in, and she's like, no, and then he's like, get out of the way, or whatever, and then he says, you're letting him kill Martha!
And he goes, why did you say that name?
And he goes, no!
Our moms have the same name!
No!
Yeah, and that changed everything is the stupidest thing ever.
lydia smith
I hate it so much.
tim pool
I'll tell you what should have happened.
Batman's entire arc in that movie was basically that Superman was too powerful and if he wanted to, he could destroy everything and no one could do a damn thing about it.
That's what he says.
And so what should have happened is right when he finishes off, when he beats Superman and he grabs the spear, he should have looked over Superman and said, let this be the day you never forget, the day I defeated you, and then throw the spear aside and start to walk away.
And the whole point was Batman isn't evil.
He doesn't want to kill Superman.
He wants him to know he isn't a god.
adam crigler
Maybe the Snyder Cut, maybe he did that.
Maybe it's supposed to be darker and different, right?
tim pool
Yes, I'm excited for this.
adam crigler
Although that's not the same, right?
That's Batman vs. Superman, not the Justice League, right?
tim pool
That was Batman vs. Superman.
Justice League, they resurrect him.
adam crigler
But that's the Snyder Cut we're going to watch.
tim pool
Justice League.
adam crigler
It's Justice League.
tim pool
And the choices they made.
Do they not have any fans making these movies?
You know what the secret is, though?
It's Kevin Feige.
Because he's basically hit a home run on every single... What has he done?
All the MCU movies.
All of them.
adam crigler
Oh, all of them.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
tim pool
He's like the main dude.
Captain Marvel, I kind of roll my eyes at.
adam crigler
I liked it.
tim pool
For me, it's like...
adam crigler
They squeezed in too much desperate, weird... I can see what you're talking about, but... I mean, when I watched it, I was like, this is a good movie.
tim pool
I liked it. I don't know. No, there's no stakes her powers are weird
It's like they were talking about how she was the most powerful hero. Yeah, and then even in endgame it really
Really hurt the film. Yeah that it's like it didn't make it She didn't make sense in that when when Thanos headbutts
her and then she just like smirks. I'm like, oh, come on Give me some steaks.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Don't just whack me over the face with like, we get it.
She's super powerful and no one can hurt her.
And then Thanos grabs the Power Stone and then hits her with it.
And that's finally, you know, you know what, man?
You make a character with no flaws and that's the flaw.
An arrogant narcissist, overpowered.
Just spare me, dude.
I do not want to see that.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
I want to see them fix the DC movie universe.
unidentified
Birds of prey.
adam crigler
Aquaman 2 is super easy.
All you gotta do is just replace Amber Turd.
unidentified
Yep.
lydia smith
That's all you have to do.
adam crigler
Done, done, boom.
You know what's crazy about- And I'll be excited about that movie.
tim pool
What's crazy about the Aquaman movie is that it actually was good.
I really, really liked it.
adam crigler
I thought so, too.
I liked it.
tim pool
The underwater fights between him and, uh, what's the other guy's name?
unidentified
Oren?
adam crigler
His brother?
Or his half-brother?
Half-brothers?
tim pool
I don't know.
It was beautiful!
adam crigler
Yeah, really cool scene.
tim pool
It was epic!
adam crigler
Yeah, I liked it.
tim pool
But the scoring was just off!
adam crigler
Oh, the music?
tim pool
Yes!
Like when, uh... I can't think of it, but... When, uh, the dude's in the sinking submarine and his dad's dying or whatever... Oh, yeah, that scene.
The music, it just came off as, like...
Like a parody of it almost like it was I was like watching SNL version of it was a little that felt forced that whole scene Anyway, didn't not even well talking about the music.
adam crigler
It was scene was just like why are you trying to get like what's going on here?
tim pool
I think it was too slow of a death.
Yeah, maybe it should have been faster It should have been like at the last minute his dad like like a torpedo hit him and not like You know and just crushed him or really?
Or like when, in the end of Gardens of the Galaxy 2, Yondu puts the spacesuit on Peter.
adam crigler
Yeah, and saves him.
tim pool
And then saves him, and then he slowly dies, and Peter's going, no!
adam crigler
That was awesome.
Right.
What an epic scene.
tim pool
It should've, it could've been something like, they're sinking, and then the dad takes off his respirator, you know, his son's respirator fails, and then he takes it off and gives it to his kid, and then pulls the cord, you know, and then air shoots out, and he goes, no!
And he gets shot up to the surface, and then his dad, they could've done something like that.
But anyway, anyway, that movie was good.
Yeah, it wasn't bad.
The timing is weird, though.
How, like, in Justice League, the chronology is before Aquaman.
adam crigler
Right.
But he goes and gets introduced to Aquaman.
Well, I mean, people liked it.
They like him.
I like him.
He's cool.
Was it Jason Momoa?
Yeah, he's a cool actor.
I liked him in that movie.
tim pool
DC, I think, the Warner Brothers stuff, they were trying to race to Avengers.
adam crigler
Yeah, definitely.
And that's a problem.
tim pool
They should have done it.
adam crigler
Stop trying to be them.
Do your own thing.
People are going to like it.
tim pool
What they should have done is, you have to build up to the ensemble cast.
adam crigler
You can't just start with it.
tim pool
What were they thinking, man?
The MCU was built up over a decade of introducing these movies.
adam crigler
When did Iron Man 1, that was the first one, right?
unidentified
I think it was 2008.
2008.
2008 or 9.
adam crigler
I think the Hulk was like 07 or something.
But that was the first Hulk, right?
With Edward Norton?
tim pool
No, no.
The first Hulk was with Eric Bana, I think.
Oh yeah, that's right.
And then Marvel Studios took it over and then did with Edward Norton.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
At the end of that, the general What's-His-Face meets with Tony Stark.
Because they were... I think in the beginning they weren't planning on doing this big MCU.
Yeah, yeah.
They were just promoing the next film.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
And it was one universe.
And at the end of Iron Man, I think, at the end of Iron Man, was it Thor?
Yeah.
Like, I found it and there's the hammer.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
And then because it all linked them together, they were like, DC should have done that.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
But what I think they tried doing was, they basically tried getting their Infinity War off before Marvel could.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Because they thought that would be better, I guess, because like, Justice League was the mother boxes.
And I'm like, right, you should have done what Marvel did.
adam crigler
Yep, introduce all the characters, give them a movie.
tim pool
And when they introduced Cyborg, they could introduce one of the mother boxes, and then not have this.
But then not only that, when they did Justice League, it was almost like they were trying to do their Avengers Infinity War, but instead of giving us Darkseid, they gave us Steppenwolf?
unidentified
It's like, this guy's irrelevant!
tim pool
You know what?
adam crigler
Is it Darkseid?
I thought it was Darkseed.
tim pool
I think it's Darkseid.
I don't know what they were doing.
And then the Birds of Prey, man.
It's like getting punched in the gut over and over again.
I like DC so much more.
I really do.
I really, really like Justice League.
I like Marvel, but I feel like Marvel is too weird.
adam crigler
I like Suicide Squad.
tim pool
It was okay, but it wasn't Suicide Squad.
adam crigler
Yeah, I don't really know anything much about Suicide Squad.
tim pool
It's supposed to be that the government wants black ops.
adam crigler
Right.
tim pool
By using villains, they can disavow any association with whatever it is they get caught doing.
adam crigler
That's pretty cool.
I dig it.
tim pool
And that's not what it was.
Suicide Squad, they just made a superhero movie.
adam crigler
Yeah, basically.
tim pool
And not only that, it was like a weird, like, our fault.
Like, what's her face?
I'm forgetting the lady's name.
I can't remember my tongue.
adam crigler
I don't know what you're talking about.
tim pool
The woman who runs Cadmus.
I can't think of her name.
People are going to mention it in the comments now.
Yeah, I'm sure.
She brings on the, I'm totally forgetting the movie, the Delevingne woman is possessed
by the demon lady and then she goes rogue and then the suicide squad stops her, but
that's not what suicide squad was.
It could have been very simple, like infiltrating a foreign adversary's research facility,
Right, right.
It could have been something like this this government is developing a bioweapon
going and destroy it.
And then and then it could have been like in the end one of them gets caught.
And then and then you see like breaking news and it was like you know you know
Harley Quinn was captured trying to steal a bioweapon.
adam crigler
Right.
Right.
But what people don't realize Harley Quinn's plot or plan foiled by our
tim pool
like we save the day and then she actually ends up destroying you know
whatever they were doing or something which would have been a great segue into
adam crigler
an actual Harley Quinn solo movie but you know what they tried doing with
tim pool
Harley Quinn I think they tried making Lady Deadpool mmm everyone's saying Amanda Waller Amanda Waller yeah I
knew it thanks I was like they're all gonna jump in and that's the best but
dude I it's man I just the Justice League cartoons are awesome I like Green
Lantern Batman I really liked Green Lantern a lot Green Lantern is cool
And what was I watching?
I was watching one of the movies where, I can't remember which movie it was, I just watched it recently, one of the animated Warner Brothers ones.
Why is it that the animated Warner Brothers DC movies are great?
Can't you just make that live?
What are you doing?
adam crigler
Yeah, that's what I hear, that they're really good.
tim pool
So some villains from the future view the Green Lantern as fascists.
They're like militaristic, you know, interspatial, you know.
adam crigler
They basically are like a police force.
tim pool
A military.
Marines.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
But there's a lot of really cool things they explore.
But anyway, long story short, you get these Warner Brothers animated films on Amazon, and they're awesome.
They're great.
adam crigler
I don't think I've seen any of them.
tim pool
Why do we end up with this weird stuff?
This weird, you know... I don't know, man.
adam crigler
It's the social justice people that are infiltrating everywhere.
tim pool
Well, that's Birds of Prey.
adam crigler
And influencing.
I think it has something to do... It's becoming more prevalent.
You're right.
Birds of Prey is the prime example of that, yes.
tim pool
Justice League wasn't social justice-y.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
It was just bad.
adam crigler
But you know what?
It's also the people that don't know the actual comics.
They're not Justice League fans, Suicide Squad fans.
They're not like, oh man, I grew up watching Suicide Squad.
Now I'm a part of this movie.
Let's really pay homage to what it was.
Let's do that.
That's not what's happening.
They're like, oh, we got these big actors, Will Smith and all these other people.
Let's make a big, epic movie.
Yeah, but what about Suicide Squad?
tim pool
I feel like what they're doing is they're like, what IP do we have?
And they're like, we could do Suicide Squad.
Awesome.
Now, how do we make it the Avengers?
unidentified
Right.
tim pool
It's like, no, no, no, no, no.
People really like Suicide Squad.
adam crigler
They want some of that Avengers money, man.
Made a billion dollars, didn't it?
Something like that?
tim pool
yeah i mean but uh... justice as you said they built it up over it right if they just earned it
adam crigler
avengers out there endgame with no nothing else
tim pool
it would have been the same it would've been really awful actually
infinity war is amazing endgame i liked but it really does feel like
unidentified
endgame was just a like uh... we have to put this out now
tim pool
No, no, no, it's an anthology episode.
Like, you know when you watch a show, and they just do flashbacks the whole episode?
unidentified
Oh, yeah, yeah.
tim pool
That's what it was.
And so, it was okay, but like, what I don't like about Endgame is that the villain is of their own creation.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
They go back in time, they trigger some Thanos, he comes to the future and then fights him, and I'm like, but Thanos is already dead.
It's kind of dumb, you know?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
Infinity War was amazing.
adam crigler
Yeah, that was.
tim pool
It was a good one.
It feels like DC is just like, It's so mishmashed.
They're like, okay, we have Batman.
We have Superman.
We'll do Batman versus Superman.
Can we make it like Marvel?
Yes, but darker.
Yes.
adam crigler
Martha!
Martha.
tim pool
I don't understand.
Like the explanation I gave you of how they could have resolved that.
That's the way it was supposed to be.
He has the spear up to Superman's neck.
Then he throws it aside and says, you know, never forget, I defeated you.
And that would have been the end of it.
And then Superman would have came to, realizing he was defeated.
So here's the thing.
In that movie, when Superman approaches Batman asking for help about his mom, he comes as an arrogant dick.
And he walks up and he's like, if I wanted to kill you, I would.
And so Batman goes at him hardcore.
That was fine. And then Batman should have won. And then Superman should have come to realize that he was defeated,
but Batman didn't kill him.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And then he would have been like, well, you know, and then Batman, then it could have gone to regular dialogue where
he was like, you've, you've acted with impunity for too long.
You are not a God on this planet. And then Superman could have been like, I'm sorry.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
I need your help. And then they could have, it could have been normal. Instead, it was like, Martha.
So, so.
You know my favorite meme about it was?
Is that, like, I don't know if it was a cartoon or something,
but the joke was, they're fighting, and then all of a sudden, like,
it's at the point where Batman's gonna beat him, and then he's like, but, he's like,
no, don't kill me, because my mom Martha is in trouble.
And then Batman goes, your mom's name is Martha too?
My mom's name is Martha.
Dude, your mom's name is Martha?
That's so cool.
Do you wanna be friends?
lydia smith
Like that's- We just become best friends.
tim pool
Yeah, that's it, that's what it was.
adam crigler
Terrible.
tim pool
Yeah, man.
So, I don't know.
The Snyder Cut, they're saying, might be a four-part miniseries.
adam crigler
That'd be cool.
tim pool
Yeah, because there's like four hours of content.
adam crigler
Yeah, it's a long movie.
tim pool
And they're talking about having a lot of the footage that never got used has to be touched up.
And they gotta do the CGI and all that stuff.
adam crigler
Oh, that makes sense.
Yeah, right.
Because they never actually used it.
tim pool
Maybe it will be good.
One thing I don't really like about it is Wonder Woman seems underpowered, and Superman is just OP.
adam crigler
I don't really remember.
It's been a long time since I've seen that movie.
tim pool
Wonder Woman's really strong, but it seems like the gap in power between her and Superman is too great in the movies.
unidentified
To me.
tim pool
I don't know.
Maybe I'm wrong.
adam crigler
Yeah, in her movies, she's a boss.
tim pool
No, her power levels are the same between her movies and Justice League.
adam crigler
Oh, okay, okay.
tim pool
I just feel like she should be substantially stronger.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
I guess, you know, maybe it's early on or whatever.
But then when you have Superman coming in to save the day, he's just too powerful.
adam crigler
It's Superman.
tim pool
I know.
adam crigler
Superman.
Superperson.
tim pool
And that is an issue.
adam crigler
Super Florbo.
unidentified
Indeed.
tim pool
But they could still write something into that where, you know, when Steppenwolf comes and he's like a Kryptonian or whatever and he knows Superman's there, there could have been reconnaissance.
He could have said something as simple as like, they could have showed a scene where he's talking to Darkseid and he's like, Earth has since gotten a Kryptonian, and you know, it's a yellow sun, you know what this means.
And then he could have gone, hmm, we're gonna need reinforcements or something, or we'll need Kryptonite.
adam crigler
The chat has informed me it's Darkseid.
tim pool
It is Darkseid.
adam crigler
That's what people were adding me.
unidentified
Oh, there you go.
adam crigler
Thanks again, Chip.
tim pool
I don't know, I'm just saying words.
Anyway, anyway, if you weren't Martha, you weren't hip.
I'm hoping that they can salvage this series, but I have no faith.
I remember, I think, I can't remember what movie I was leaving, and I walked out, we were talking about it, and there was some like, you know, fat neckbeard kind of guy.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
And they were talking about it too, and then I mentioned I like DC more, and then he stopped, he was like, no.
Wrong.
adam crigler
How does it feel?
tim pool
Thank you for informing me my opinion.
adam crigler
How does it feel when someone else does it to you?
What?
No.
lydia smith
Your opinion is wrong.
tim pool
Your opinion is wrong.
How does it feel?
My like of Batman versus Cyclops is incorrect?
No.
That's totally different.
That's like...
In terms of literature, Batman and any other Marvel hero are of equal merit.
It's depending on what you see in these heroes that you think you like more than something else.
So I think Batman's awesome.
I do.
And I like how a lot of the movies have handled Batman.
I actually think Ben Affleck did a great job.
I think he did.
adam crigler
Yeah, actually he did an alright job as Batman, I have to agree.
tim pool
Henry Cavill was great as Superman too.
adam crigler
Yeah, I'm actually bummed he stopped because he's actually, he made me like Superman in those films better because he did a good job of it.
It's a shame he left because DC was crumbling.
tim pool
You know that Superman used to have the ability to fire miniature Supermans from his hand?
adam crigler
Miniature Supermans.
tim pool
Yeah, little versions of himself.
adam crigler
That's cute.
tim pool
Because I guess apparently, like, early on, Superman didn't have any, like, defined powers.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
So I was reading something that said he was actually a lot weaker.
adam crigler
Mini-Superman.
tim pool
He couldn't fly.
You know, and then they introduced a bunch of weird random powers, and it wasn't later on until they did, like, ultimately said, like, here are his powers.
But I was also, there was a viral post on Reddit recently that said, Kryptonite was introduced because the voice actor for Superman in the early cartoon wanted to go on vacation.
So they're like, okay, Superman's sick.
It's a kryptonite.
And so that way they could have the voice actor like, you know, take a day off or for like a week on vacation or something.
adam crigler
That's funny.
tim pool
Yeah.
It's funny how a lot of, a lot of these, uh, things work with like the business side of things has to make a change.
So it has to incorporate some kind of story arc change to accommodate a reduction in staff, publishing time, voice actors.
Yeah.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Anyway, we'll see.
We'll see how it plays out, but let's hop back over to the super chats.
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
And see, that was a good instance where someone superchatted us and then we ranted on it for a little while.
adam crigler

Oh, you know I love Brian Stelter uncritically just pushing Right Wing Watch.

I'm like, I thought you were a journalist.

Right Wing Watch is a project of something called People for the American Way, which

JT says, Hey Beanie Crew!
Doing great work as always.
Any of you watch Tony Hawk on Rogan today?
What are your thoughts on skating as an Olympic sport?
I am... Milk toast fence sitting on it.
I'm actually for it, I'm totally for it.
adam crigler
I think it's cool.
tim pool
When I was younger, I was totally opposed to it because skateboarding culture was very much about independence, freedom, street, doing your own thing.
adam crigler
Still has that.
tim pool
Yes, but I've come to see what this has evolved into and now I get really, really pissed off on Instagram when you see kids making video where they attack security guards.
adam crigler
Yeah, I hate that.
tim pool
And there are big companies that promote these videos.
And it's disgusting.
adam crigler
Because there was a dude... Yeah, that's not a good thing.
tim pool
Who got brain damage and put in a coma.
They removed part of his brain.
Because these dudes were trying to skate this famous spot.
Security guard came out.
The security guard... I don't know if he started it or not, but he started picking a fight.
Like, a fight broke out.
He went to attack one skater.
He fell down and hit his head.
And that was it.
Brain damage.
And this guy went to prison or something.
adam crigler
The skater did.
tim pool
Yeah, and I think the skater was defending himself, but he was breaking the law by trespassing.
adam crigler
So he was in the wrong no matter what.
tim pool
Yup.
Something like that happened.
And so when I see these videos where kids are skating and the security guard comes up and tells them to leave, and they shove him out of the way, or they fight with him, or they do the trick over him or something.
adam crigler
Yeah, it's like, you just leave and come back in like an hour.
tim pool
Yeah.
adam crigler
Go skate a different spot.
tim pool
That's how you do it.
Not only that, but you need to realize like, I'm all for street skating, but skateboarding became too big and it started to become something untenable.
I don't know what the answer is.
Well, look, when you have a massive, massive multi-billion dollar industry and you're encouraging kids to go out and then they're basically romping around people's property and stuff, it's going to become a problem at some point.
adam crigler
Well, the answer is more skate parks.
tim pool
And that's what they started doing.
But so here's what happened.
Initially, people rejected the Olympic stuff because they were like, it's about street and being raw and all that stuff.
And that's when my opinion started changing and I'm like, nah, you still have the independence, you still have the structure, you still have the life experience, the things you learn from skateboarding, but now you don't gotta worry about getting arrested, you don't gotta worry about hurting people, no more fights, less confrontational.
And so then I was like, you know, I kinda like the idea of being in the Olympics now.
adam crigler
Yeah, I'm all for it.
tim pool
It's going to be good for the industry, it's going to make more pros.
I think there's a risk in that you're going to create a class of elitist skateboarders.
So skateboarding used to be the, you know, it was fiercely independent, fiercely libertarian.
But now you're going to end up with people who their parents trained them to be Olympic skateboarders.
And it turns the sport into plastic.
adam crigler
Like that 11-year-old's been skating since he was a child, probably.
tim pool
That's different, though.
That's okay.
adam crigler
Well, I mean, that's what's gonna happen, though.
It's gonna be these people that are just, like, skating their entire life, and just no one else can be on that level.
And that's you, also.
tim pool
Same with any sport.
adam crigler
Yeah, that's true.
tim pool
I disagree, though.
adam crigler
With what?
tim pool
With what?
That skateboarding is interestingly unique in that there's definitely going to be a big
advantage for people who have been skating since they were babies, but you can risk everything
by choice and be one of the best skaters in the world.
I can't remember the dude's name, but there was a pro skateboarder who was like, I would
argue didn't seem to be that good, but didn't mind breaking bones to make sure that they
were good enough.
And so they would do ridiculous handrails, slam really hard and like sprains, like don't care because they had the guts to try to do a trick that was moderately hard, but on some massive obstacle.
adam crigler
It's not me you're talking about, are you?
tim pool
No, but that does explain, that does describe you to varying degrees.
adam crigler
Yeah, that's true.
tim pool
Yeah.
Adam's just like falling nonstop because he refuses to give up tricks.
adam crigler
Yeah, well, I mean, I'm trying really difficult things, but then I land them and it feels... it's all worth it.
tim pool
The way I skate is, I'll size it up.
I'll, like, lock into the trick, and then I'll jump off and be like, okay, now I can feel it.
Adam doesn't do that.
He's just like, nah, I'm just gonna go for it, and then, like, boom, I'll get back up and do it again.
I'm chill.
I don't want to break my legs.
But we'll see how things play out with the Olympics.
I think in the end, man, if you want to skate, you skate.
You do your thing.
I don't need to rely on anybody else.
adam crigler
Skateboarding in the Olympics is not going to change skate culture.
No, it's not.
I think it is.
It'll create a pocket of skate culture, but as a whole it's not gonna change.
tim pool
I disagree.
adam crigler
Because people get, not everyone wants to get hurt.
Like most sports you can play, I mean sure, everyone gets hurt in sports, but when you skateboard, the chances of you getting hurt is significant.
Like you're gonna fall, you're gonna hurt.
tim pool
It's actually less.
adam crigler
My shins look like battlefields, you know?
Most skaters get shinners, fall over, break their wrists eventually.
tim pool
Skateboarding has a lower incidence of injury compared to almost every other sport.
adam crigler
Yeah, maybe significant injuries, but I'm not talking about that.
tim pool
I'm talking about everything.
It's because skateboarders incorporate dodge training and agility into...
So it's like, to be a good skateboarder, you learn how to escape.
adam crigler
Sure.
tim pool
Whereas with contact sports, you get tackled.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
And so you're guaranteed to get a bruise.
You're guaranteed to get a shinner.
Skateboarding, it's like, I can lock into a blunt and then just walk off my board and be like, I'll get it when I feel more confident.
adam crigler
Sure.
tim pool
Then if you fall, you judo roll out of it.
I disagree.
But this is statistically true.
adam crigler
I don't care about your statistics.
I still disagree.
tim pool
When I was younger, there was a big thing about skate parks mandating helmets.
And one of the big pushes against it, which I was absolutely for getting rid of helmet rules, was that it was actually much more of a detriment considering the statistics on sports injuries.
So of course when they play football, everyone's wearing crazy armor and stuff.
But there are a lot of sports where people weren't wearing full gear and the stats were like, it was significant.
It was like an order of magnitude.
Skateboarders get hurt less.
Like it was less than a percent compared to like two or three or four percent for other sports.
And so we had been advocating like for shops, not shops, for like indoor parks to not have to mandate helmets by the insurance companies.
adam crigler
Okay.
tim pool
That was our argument, and for local parks too.
And my argument was this, it's like, if I spend all day practicing and training for rolling, bailing, and not using a helmet, and I'm not skating a vert ramp or anything like that, if you're skating a vert ramp, wear a helmet, wear full pads, then I think it is actually bad to change someone's comfortability by making them wear a helmet.
If they don't want to and they don't feel comfortable and confident doing it, don't make them do it.
adam crigler
I mean, I've seen probably the best skater at Chelsea Piers, Not skating the bowl, the deep bowl, just like skating around the park, crack his head open.
Yep.
Because it happens.
unidentified
Right, right, it does, for sure.
tim pool
And so, that's why I'm saying, like, if you wear a helmet, and you're comfortable wearing a helmet, do what makes you feel comfortable and confident.
But, you know, when looking at the numbers, if someone spends their whole life skating a specific way, and then you make them change what they do, and they're not comfortable doing it, it's like, it makes no sense.
I think it's up to the individual to choose what they think is appropriate for them.
Yeah.
And we use stats to back that up.
Let's read more Super Chats!

I don't know.
They never sent me any messages about anything.
So I don't know if they I guess they tweeted at me, but I get way too many mentions.
I don't understand why he wouldn't just DM me if that was the case, though.
unidentified

Don't you know him personally?
Why wouldn't he just hit you up personally?
tim pool
I've DM'd him, you know, on Twitter, like all the time.
That's why I'm like.
adam crigler
Honestly, I kind of dug into this a little bit and because he, he knows you personally and his hasn't hit you up.
They're just using it as more, more points to get clicks also.
That's their whole argument is that we were just doing it for clicks, but it's like, we were just using his, his tweet as a reference to what we were talking about in that episode.
tim pool
Didn't we say professor makes argument against lockdown?
adam crigler
Yeah.
tim pool
That's literally what he did.
adam crigler
And he's saying that that's not what he was saying at all.
That they're for the lockdown, but not the way it's locked down.
And it's like, okay, now they're just arguing semantics and using it as more points to get it out there.
tim pool
I honestly don't think he even cares.
adam crigler
I agree.
lydia smith
I thought it was great they had a chance to explain themselves, which is exactly what they did.
tim pool
I think it's other people that are acting like it's a big deal.
adam crigler
Honestly, it was the other doctor was making more of a big deal about it.
Like we were using his credentials and like how dare we use his credentials and
his name and it's like we didn't even use his name.
I mean it was his tweet.

tim pool
I just don't think it's a big deal.
I don't think he even cares.
adam crigler
They even admitted in the video, they didn't watch our video.
They just were upset about the thumbnail.
The title of the was misleading.
That's what they're upset about.
And it's like, okay, well watch it.
And we were, we used his tweet, but that's it.
tim pool
Yeah, I don't even think that we relied heavily on it at all.
adam crigler
Yeah, no, it was just part of it.
But I'm pretty... It's just the thumbnail, the whole, like, the thumbnail and the title of it makes it seem like that's it.
tim pool
I'll have to check what it is, but I'm pretty sure it was something like, Professor makes, like, epic argument against lockdown or something.
adam crigler

Andy Zimmerman says, Will YouTube have a true competitor that focuses on being
not partisan?
If so, why hasn't the free market filled this issue yet?
YouTube is subsidized.
The partner program dominates because people who create are like, I can make a living here.
And then because they can't get the advertisers and the views on other platforms, there can be no competition.
So as long as Google search subsidizes YouTube, which it does, nothing can exist.
Yep.
Well, the antitrust probe is coming.
We'll see what happens.

Found it.
Sale fell through.
You came in January.
Lydia came, I think, a couple weeks after that.
