| My friends, the left, many of these critical race theorist type people, they don't like | ||
| So they like to claim that what I do is not journalism. | ||
| But it's wrong. | ||
| While I'll be the first to admit most of what I do is political commentary, cultural commentary, and news commentary, etc. | ||
| No, I actually do the digging, and this morning when I wake up, I go and I look at all of these different news stories claiming that Reddit is pumping silver. | ||
| That they've decided GameStop is out, no one cares anymore, and everybody should go buy silver. | ||
| And I thought, that sounds weird. | ||
| That doesn't sound like Reddit. | ||
| They wouldn't just stop. | ||
| They've been saying diamond hands, you know, hold the stock, don't sell. | ||
| So I go to Reddit, and what do I see? | ||
| The number one post on the entire website, not just WallStreetBets, is, don't buy silver. | ||
| Bloomberg ran a segment titled, Redditors lose interest in GameStop. | ||
| And it has never been more brazen. | ||
| The desperation from the machine over what Reddit has done is... They are so desperate, in fact. | ||
| They're completely exposing themselves. | ||
| And this has been a trend over the past several months. | ||
| You can now go to Reddit, show your friends and family, hey look, see how they're saying, don't buy silver, it's a scam and fake news? | ||
| Here's every mainstream outlet you know and trust lying to your face. | ||
| It's crazy. | ||
| Well, we got some big news, too. | ||
| You see, the game is rigged, my friends. | ||
| It's not just the media, but apparently the NSCC, which is the principal clearinghouse for stocks, told Robinhood, the trading app, that they had to deposit $3 billion. | ||
| Secured deposit. | ||
| And when they eventually negotiated down, saying, we can't do that, they said $700 million. | ||
| I believe it was $700 million, but you also have to freeze these stocks. | ||
| When you finally find a way to win, they shut you down. | ||
| Now, initially, I titled this podcast, It Was The Feds. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Because the initial story that I had said Federal Regulator Intervenes, and turns out NSCC is actually a private entity, a subsidiary of the DTCC, and as Ian put it when we were discussing this, like trying to figure out what the right title would be, he said it's convoluted on purpose. | ||
| So we've got a bunch of crazy news today. | ||
| It's not just about what's going on with the GameStop rebellion, because I do think that's important, but we also have unrest in Rochester after cops pepper sprayed a nine-year-old girl. | ||
| We've got the SWAT team raiding the Red Lion Hotel because left-wing activists occupied it. | ||
| We've got China threatening war over Taiwanese independence. | ||
| There's a lot to go through. | ||
| Joining us today, of course, I mentioned Ian. | ||
| He's chilling. | ||
| Well, hello, everyone. | ||
| Thanks for coming and thanks for having me, Tim. | ||
| You were mentioning that it was convoluted on purpose? | ||
| It's insane, dude! | ||
| It's like the Federal Express, which I don't know if they really wanted you to think it was actually a federal company, but of course the Federal Reserve, also not a federal company, an arm of the Bank of International Settlements, a Swiss bank. | ||
| One of many central banks throughout the world, like the Bank of England and the Bank of Australia, that are not governed by their government. | ||
| This is Ian's time to shine. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hello. | |
| The Federal Reserve, all this stuff. | ||
| That's what I was thinking when I looked at NSCC. | ||
| I was like, wait, is this not? | ||
| What is this entity? | ||
| It's not regulated. | ||
| It's not part of the government. | ||
| It's a private entity. | ||
| What is this? | ||
| Because I was reading an old article talking about how it was effectively supposed to be handling like some kind of regulatory body like work. | ||
| It's not. | ||
| It's a private entity. | ||
| And I think at some point it would be fair to make it illegal to call your company federal. | ||
| Anything that's not, I would like, I mean, Federal Express is legit, just a private company. | ||
| I know. | ||
| But yeah, it's just Federal Express, just a name, it's a brand. | ||
| Just a name, just a brand. | ||
| Hey, if you can make yourself sound official, you are official. | ||
| That's the rules by the internet, I mean, right? | ||
| Am I wrong here? | ||
| Also, when you look at silver and when you type it into Google, the first articles that come up, first Google puts up a big memo, it says, silver prices surged to 8-year high, but the first article is by the Wall Street Journal that says silver prices jump in GameStop-like frenzy. | ||
| Then it's the New York Times. | ||
| Silver rises with hype. | ||
| It's the next GameStop! | ||
| And again, just absolute propaganda, disinformation, which of course we're going to be countering here. | ||
| Welcome back beautiful and amazing human beings. | ||
| This is Luke Grodowski of WeAreChange.org. | ||
| You want to get involved with what I'm doing? | ||
| I have many different ways you can on WeAreChange.org forward slash donate because you do. | ||
| I'm here. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, we've got an awesome sponsor today. | ||
| Oh yeah. | ||
| A big shout-out to safeandreadymeals.com. | ||
| This is emergency food supplies. | ||
| You can go to safeandreadymeals.com. | ||
| We've got a two-week food supply. | ||
| There's a four-week food supply. | ||
| And you get a fairly decent, around 20% or so discount when you go and pick up this food. | ||
| It lasts for about 25 years if stored properly. | ||
| And, uh, it's really that simple. | ||
| It's this big bucket you get, you peel it open, you got a bunch of different bags of stuff inside. | ||
| It's, it's really easy to do. | ||
| You open the bag, you put it in a pot, you mix it with some water, it's fantastic. | ||
| And one of the reasons we're doing a shout-out for SafeAndReadyMeals.com is because, uh, for those of you that don't live on the East Coast, we're currently being slammed by a blizzard. | ||
| And I went out because I had to go run some errands. | ||
| Everything is shut down. | ||
| I live in the middle of nowhere, so we don't have a lot of good road service or anything like that. | ||
| Everything's closed. | ||
| KFC was closed. | ||
| The restaurants were all closed. | ||
| It was particularly difficult. | ||
| So you know what we did? | ||
| We came back, and we actually had one of these. | ||
| We cracked open, and we used pancake mix as a deep-frying batter. | ||
| It was fantastic. | ||
| So I'm not saying you need an emergency food supply, but I am saying this. | ||
| Sometimes... Actually, let me phrase it this way. | ||
| A lot of people think this stuff is all about the apocalypse, buy this stuff because you think the world is ending. | ||
| That's not the case. | ||
| We have some because sometimes it snows so bad that it's hard to get to the store, and we're like, well, let's see what we got in the pantry. | ||
| Turns out we ran out of bacon and other food, and we were going to go to the store, and then we didn't, and then we should have. | ||
| I don't know if you guys have ever seen that viral video where the guy's screaming, you got to get the milk, bread, and eggs, and he's running to his car because they said snow. | ||
| Listen, sometimes it snows, sometimes it rains, and it makes it hard to go out and buy stuff. | ||
| So safeandreadymeals.com, special thanks. | ||
| You can pick up your emergency food supply. | ||
| It's 20 or so percent off when you go check it out. | ||
| Luke, you're dying to say something. | ||
| Yeah, there was no eggs at the supermarket. | ||
| I just came from there. | ||
| I barely made it, but I also barely made it here, and I live in the parking lot. | ||
| That's how bad it is. | ||
| You went to the store, and then you were trying to make it back, and you were having trouble. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| But luckily I did, and everyone's going 20 miles an hour, and I still have to shovel the snow off of my RV, which I'm not looking for. | ||
| Oh, we've got to get another video. | ||
| We went to a Mexican restaurant. | ||
| It was closed, and there was no signs or anything, and we were confused. | ||
| And then I was like, I don't understand what's happening. | ||
| And so we drove around, and everything was empty with no notifications. | ||
| And then I was like, did they get raptured or something? | ||
| Like they're just gone? | ||
| Because of COVID, they're looking for an excuse. | ||
| They're slow anyway. | ||
| No, no, it's the blizzard, bro. | ||
| It might be a combination of both, not a conspiracy. | ||
| We went to one restaurant. | ||
| It's a conspiracy. | ||
| We went to one restaurant and finally this thing on the door saying, due to inclement weather, we will be shutting down. | ||
| And I'm like, dude, we went to one place. | ||
| It's like an adventure center with food. | ||
| And it's like supposed to be for like hiking. | ||
| Even they were closed. | ||
| So I was like, we went back, we cracked open one of these boxes, and we used the instant pancake mix as deep frying batter. | ||
| I just want to add about Safe and Ready Meals. | ||
| One, once you crack it open, you can use the bucket as a trash can. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's really convenient. | |
| That's true too, yeah. | ||
| Two, those are really good pancake batter dips. | ||
| We deep fried, we bacon, we had to find bacon. | ||
| We found bacon at the gas station. | ||
| And deep fried mozzarella, which is not known as cheese. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That was awesome. | |
| Dude, it worked out so well. | ||
| It was amazing. | ||
| It was delicious. | ||
| Yeah, I have a funny story about this. | ||
| So we had a guest here, and he was like, hey, can I have one of those safe and ready things? | ||
| And I was like, what? | ||
| Are you crazy? | ||
| He's like, yeah, ever since I was here last time and you gave it to me, I really want another one. | ||
| So I mixed him up one of those while he was here. | ||
| And I was like, that's really weird. | ||
| I'm really glad you enjoy it. | ||
| That's like your mac and cheese. | ||
| Yeah, it's like you get a packet, you put it in a bucket. | ||
| That was a really long promo, but I thought it was a funny story. | ||
| That's why we were shouting him out, because I'm like, You know, we're in this blizzard right now. | ||
| And I'm like, this is it. | ||
| The people want to embarrass you, and they want to smack talk me, saying, oh, he sells food buckets. | ||
| I'm like, yes. | ||
| And now, sometimes there's a blizzard, and it shuts the roads down. | ||
| You can't go to the store. | ||
| You can just crack one of these things open. | ||
| Worst case scenario is you eat food. | ||
| We deep fried it in peanut oil, by the way. | ||
| Yeah, we did bacon wrapped chicken and then bread and deep fried it. | ||
| It was amazing. | ||
| It was probably not the healthiest thing in the world. | ||
| Okay, anyway, go to TimCast.com, become a member and check out... We actually have a bonus episode we did with Eliza Blue talking about a bunch of things YouTube will ban us for talking about. | ||
| And it was a pretty serious conversation. | ||
| So again, TimBass.com, you can become a member, 10 bucks a month, and you get access to all this special bonus content, and we're gonna be producing more as things ramp up. | ||
| My friends, seriously, we have been working, like, way over time. | ||
| We're bringing in more people to help because... Too many members! | ||
| The website is doing too good. | ||
| Too good. | ||
| You guys are awesome. | ||
| I love you all so much. | ||
| Seriously, we got such a massive influx of members, it overloaded the system. | ||
| We're trying to get member support to help everybody who's having problems, and we're getting there. | ||
| But if you want to make sure that when we do get banned, we'll still exist in some form, you can go to TimCast.com, sign up. | ||
| Now, that was probably the longest opening segment we've ever done, but look, I gotta be honest, I really wanted to talk about the Blizzard. | ||
| I still want to talk about deep-frying food. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| That's my wheelhouse. | ||
| This is Blizzard, it's like news, and it's fun, because there's snow everywhere. | ||
| I mean, I got a big truck with some cojones on it, and that thing was moving around not too good out there. | ||
| Yeah, you got a 4x4. | ||
| Yeah, and that was even a little sketchy out there. | ||
| But my dog really loves the snow. | ||
| She's going crazy. | ||
| I saw a video of her. | ||
| Yeah, she's going absolutely... I'm exploiting it to the fullest extent, by the way, on my Instagram, LukeWeirdChange. | ||
| Just as a casual plug there. | ||
| Oh, she loves the snow. | ||
| Your weather report! | ||
| Hey, Tim Kess, IRL. | ||
| Breaking news. | ||
| It's snowing. | ||
| I looked up Utah's government website explaining that we really are still in an ice age. | ||
| So that last 12,800 years ago we were peppered by comets and the glaciers melted, but we're still in like the interglacial part of the ice age where it's receding. | ||
| So this warming is actually probably kind of normal and we're just headed out of the ice age. | ||
| You sound like a climate change denier. | ||
| Yeah, check out Ice Age Utah and you can read all about it. | ||
| Perhaps. | ||
| Well, we're not here to talk about the weather anymore, my friends. | ||
| I want to show you Google. | ||
| Take a look at this. | ||
| Go to Google and type in Silver and Reddit, and you see all these top stories. | ||
| Silver is the new short squeeze target for Reddit traders. | ||
| These market analysts, blah blah blah. | ||
| Move over, GameStop. | ||
| Reddit traders are targeting Silver now. | ||
| New York Post. | ||
| Reddit's epic Silver squeeze is only helping Wall Street. | ||
| This is the most brazen and insane fake news I have ever seen. | ||
| I apologize to those of you who have watched the rest of my content throughout the day because this is the main thing I've been harping on in every single video. | ||
| I don't normally do that. | ||
| Sometimes I'll, you know, sometimes, but this is the craziest thing I've ever seen. | ||
| Seriously, share this. | ||
| Okay, look. | ||
| Let me show you this post right here from WallStreetBets. | ||
| Someone's watching Bloomberg, and you can see it says this woman, Emma Chandra of Bloomberg News, and then underneath, retail traders lose interest in GameStop. | ||
| That is 100% fake news. | ||
| The number one post right now, I believe it's the number one post on WallStreetBets, why you definitely should not, under any circumstances, fall for the silver scams. | ||
| You are being played by the most powerful elite on the planet. | ||
| Think about what they say in that New York Post article. | ||
| Reddit's epic silver squeeze is only helping Wall Street. | ||
| There is no epic silver squeeze. | ||
| It doesn't exist. | ||
| If silver is going up, and it did earlier today, it's because the media is pumping it. | ||
| Now, this is where things... I'm sorry, man. | ||
| The veil has been shattered. | ||
| We're seeing two things right now. | ||
| Two things. | ||
| The first, they don't like that GameStop retail investors are actually hurting the hedge funds. | ||
| Melvin Capital down 53%. | ||
| They don't like it. | ||
| So what we're seeing now is, I believe this is more likely to be some kind of standalone complex where all these people in media have connections, they get fake stories seeded, and then dumb journalists with malicious journalists who are trying to make a pretty penny pump out this story to divert everyone's attention away from GameStop. | ||
| A lot of the people who are investing are probably just someone who saw the news. | ||
| There's now 8 million users on rslashwallstreet, that's 8 million. | ||
| A good portion of them probably just tuned in as a get-rich-quick scheme. | ||
| Not all of them, not most, but just a lot, right? | ||
| I think what we're seeing is that these special interests, these elites, are trying to convince people, go buy Dogecoin, go buy silver, but we're seeing something else more nefarious than ever. | ||
| We are seeing exactly why Wall Street Bets is doing what they're doing. | ||
| We are seeing the crony machine in play. | ||
| They are lying to you to get you to buy silver so they can pump the price of silver up. | ||
| Then all of their friends will sell out when silver peaks leave you holding an empty bag. | ||
| They do it all the time and they're doing it in our face right now. | ||
| Now it's not not just the New York Post there it's also CNBC that has this headline silver jumps 8% touches ... eight-year-high as reddit traders try their squeeze play ... with the metal and when you look at the media coverage it ... definitely kind of changed it was always sinister it was ... always extremely negative towards redditors towards. | ||
| The plebs are peasants who are actually gaining some ... financial wisdom and outsmarting the Wall Street ... guys it was always negative towards them because they're ... not part of the in-club they're not part of the ... establishment but but we have to understand it's always ... coming from the same kind of point of view it's always ... coming from the same kind of perspective Washington Post ... wrote an opinion piece about the hedge funds being the good ... guys we have MSNBC literally. | ||
| Had an anchor on there talking about how the reddit traders are going to be self-harming themselves like Instagram women who are depressed that they're going to start cutting themselves because they're wasting their time. | ||
| I'm not kidding you. | ||
| It's absolutely bonkers and absolutely just insane the coverage we're seeing by MSNBC and then of course we also had Jimmy Kimmel. | ||
| On television to the national public talking about these amateur investors who are maybe influenced by Russia. | ||
| Literally. | ||
| Russian bots. | ||
| Yes, Russian developers. | ||
| It was exactly what he said. | ||
| But look at the obfuscation. | ||
| Look at the manipulation. | ||
| Look at the disinformation propaganda campaign used against individuals, the plebs, who are finally playing in the stock market by the rules of the hedge funds. | ||
| And the hedge funds and establishment are saying, wait, wait, wait, wait. | ||
| We can only win this game, not you, when they're playing by the rules fairly. | ||
| It's absolutely insane. | ||
| It's borderline criminal. | ||
| If we lived in a fair system and there was justice in this world, there would be some serious criminal charges, but there's not. | ||
| Janet Yellen, I mean, she's on the take here, obviously getting paid, in my opinion. | ||
| In my opinion, she's on the take, but she's getting paid hundreds of thousands of dollars from these companies. | ||
| These companies have a revolving door within the U.S. | ||
| Federal Reserve. | ||
| Ben Bernanke is also involved in Citadel. | ||
| I mean, you could name the list of government officials that just go from one day public representatives of you to selling you out the next day, and it's absolutely sickening what's going on here. | ||
| And guess what? | ||
| It's only going to get a lot worse from here. | ||
| Dude, this is... I was left dumbfounded this morning. | ||
| But this is a good sign, though. | ||
| This is how they're panicking. | ||
| The veil was shattered. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| This is a great sign, because look how desperate they're becoming, that they're literally going at their straws here, being like, silver, silver! | ||
| Now, I personally like silver. | ||
| I even made a video two weeks ago saying, hey, I even interviewed someone in the silver business, and I was like, I personally like silver as an alternative to the dollar. | ||
| Not financial advice, just my own personal opinion. | ||
| But even now, when you look at the top Reddit post and you look at what people are saying, they're saying, wait, wait, wait, there is no short on silver. | ||
| A lot of hedge funds do own silver as well, and they make good points there that really are worth considering. | ||
| Well, here's the interesting thing. | ||
| Well, actually, before I get into it, let me say this. | ||
| Silver's fantastic. | ||
| Silver's great. | ||
| I love silver. | ||
| Just not when it's being pumped and dumped. | ||
| When all the media is claiming something fake is happening, like, all these Redditors are telling you to buy silver! | ||
| They're not. | ||
| The price of silver skyrockets, you buy in when silver is at $30, and then you're all excited, and then the hedge funds who are seeking to offset their losses sell out huge portions of silver at a premium from your money. | ||
| Then when silver tanks, the regular people panic, not understanding the market, losing all of that | ||
| money. And then Wall Street absorbs it all, buys back the silver they gave out in the first place | ||
| and makes that money. They make money on top and they get the silver back at the same time. | ||
| That's the game. That's the manipulation. So how high do you think they'll pump it? I don't know. | ||
| Some people are posting like, it's going to hit 500. | ||
| Oh, maybe. | ||
| I've seen some interesting posts where they say, dude, in reality, silver should be way higher. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| You were saying they artificially keep the price low so that we don't panic. | ||
| That's what they're saying online. | ||
| They're saying that these companies, you know, like if people, if, if silver tracked with inflation is way higher. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's been like 16 bucks for a decade or for decades. | ||
| Here's the really interesting and important thing about what's going on is that they're not telling people to buy physical silver. | ||
| They're telling them to buy SLV. | ||
| That's where it's at. | ||
| I think that's silver futures. | ||
| I'm not entirely sure. | ||
| Buy actual silver. | ||
| I'm not an investment strategist, but buying stock in something is very, you know. | ||
| Ian is a crazy hippie guy. | ||
| Don't listen to him. | ||
| Rub it on your neck. | ||
| You can stick it on your third eye. | ||
| That's what I do with my gold. | ||
| Don't you drink it like you put in your drinks? | ||
| Colloidal, yeah. | ||
| It's antimicrobial, antibacterial. | ||
| They put it in their clothes. | ||
| You ever see the silver clothing? | ||
| No, but I hear it's great for you. | ||
| That's why there was always the term, born with a silver spoon in his mouth. | ||
| You can brush your teeth with it. | ||
| Because a lot of people believe that silver, you know, has antibacterial, antiviral properties. | ||
| You can rub it in wounds. | ||
| And it kills werewolves. | ||
| And it kills werewolves. | ||
| That's the most important part, actually. | ||
| So here's the thing. | ||
| Rabid dogs. | ||
| I heard a lot of people saying they're trying to get people to buy SLV and not physical silver. | ||
| But if everyone tried buying physical silver, it would seriously squeeze out all of the actual physical bullion stores and everything, which could actually have a serious impact because apparently the banks wouldn't be able to cover if people actually wanted to. | ||
| Look, I'm not going to pretend to be a stock guy. | ||
| I'm just going to tell you this. | ||
| I'm a media guy. | ||
| I know how the media lies. | ||
| I know the games they play. | ||
| So don't get advice from me on what to do with stock. | ||
| For me, this is about the overlap between the Wall Street Bets Redditors and what they're actually saying, and me being a critic of the media and trying to expose them and their manipulation, and now seeing how you got a bunch of the little... It's the little guy. | ||
| This dude, Deep Effing Value, who's now become a multi-millionaire off of his bets, he's just some dad in the Massachusetts area. | ||
| He is not the machine, but now he's in the top .1% now? | ||
| Net worth is like 30-something million dollars. | ||
| Dude, there are CEOs who don't make that much money in a year, and he's made it in six months! | ||
| Doing what? | ||
| How did he make it? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Investing in GameStop! | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| That's right. | ||
| Because it was at like five bucks and now it's at three hundred. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| So a massive, very serious increase in all of your money. | ||
| And he's posting, you know, his YOLO updates. | ||
| And it's like twenty million dollars up. | ||
| Thousands of percent. | ||
| They don't like that. | ||
| You're not allowed to be in the club. | ||
| We talked about this with Bernie Sanders a while back. | ||
| How Bernie Sanders used to say, the millionaires and the billionaires in this country. | ||
| And then one day he stopped saying the millionaires. | ||
| One day he became a millionaire. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| He sold a book. | ||
| Yep, sold a book, became a millionaire, and now he doesn't say it anymore. | ||
| And that's insane because you still can! | ||
| But also, we've talked about this before, I think the millionaires really aren't the problem. | ||
| Maybe if you're like a $998 million. | ||
| Dude, even someone who has $200 million. | ||
| $200 million is a lot. | ||
| But someone that's worth $2.3 million isn't. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So why Bernie Sanders dropped that is beyond me, but I don't want to get off on a tangent on Bernie just yet. | ||
| We have some stuff on Bernie for later. | ||
| The media is smearing him. | ||
| What I'm saying is, Bernie was standing outside that mansion, the clubhouse, with all the elites and all the wealthy, you know, people, and he was outside. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And he was like, oh, I want to be inside there with the millionaires and the billionaires. | |
| Oh, the millionaires and the billionaires are awful! | ||
|
unidentified
|
Screw them! | |
| It was sour grapes. | ||
| You can't beat them. | ||
| Join them. | ||
| But then one day they open the door and they say, Bernie. | ||
| Come on in, you can be one of us. | ||
| And now he stops saying the millionaires, because they let him in the club. | ||
| This dude, deep effing value on Wall Street bets, is not part of the club, and so now he somehow found his way inside this building, and they're pissed off. | ||
| They're looking over, they're all wearing their fancy suits, pinkies out with their hoo hoo hoo, and their monocles, and they see this dude with a red bandana on, who bought a bunch of GameStop stock, and it reminds me of like, I played a poker game once, and I literally had no idea what I was doing, because this was when I was like 18, And I kept betting more, and I was holding 2-7 offsuit. | ||
| And I ended up winning, because the last dude folded, and he was really angry, and then I showed what I had, and he started screaming and yelling, Why you shouldn't have folded? | ||
| You should have folded! | ||
| I should have won! | ||
| And I was like, I played better, I guess. | ||
| No, it was just dumb luck. | ||
| I had no idea. | ||
| I had the worst possible hand. | ||
| And so now you have these people who are in the club, Who have sold their souls, who have dropped to their knees and given everything to be in that club, and this dude walks in with this bandana on and he's like, I don't know, I just bought a stock that was probably not supposed to go up and I screwed the hedge funds over. | ||
| It's like that Eddie Murphy movie from the 80s. | ||
| What was it called? | ||
| Trading Places? | ||
| Was that what it was? | ||
| Yeah, Trading Places, I think, where he became the rich guy. | ||
| Yeah, I like it. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| So they give the bunk information to these big investors and then screw them over. | ||
| He and Dan Aykroyd, they switch places? | ||
| Yeah, Eddie Murphy and Dan Aykroyd. | ||
| Oh, great movie. | ||
| Dan Aykroyd is this rich Wall Street trader and he's snooty. | ||
| And Eddie Murphy's a homeless guy and they make a bet and they switch him to see if they can make it work or whatever. | ||
| It's a great movie, by the way. | ||
| Time to watch that movie. | ||
| I definitely want to watch it. | ||
| That's a really fun movie. | ||
| People are posting that as a means of that. | ||
| Yeah, I just saw that. | ||
| That's why it was on my mind, I guess. | ||
| Did Max Keiser just a few years ago call for buying silver to squeeze out JP Morgan? | ||
| He's saying, he's saying, I think Max is tweeting now to do it. | ||
| Yeah, I'm looking at what Max is doing now. | ||
| I'm gonna look at his Twitter account just to see because he's also a big silver guy. | ||
| He's a big alternatives guy to the US dollar. | ||
| So it'll be interesting to see what he says. | ||
| I remember seeing a lot of silver news with him just a few years ago about this specific topic. | ||
| Well, listen, listen. | ||
| I like Max, he's a very smart guy. | ||
| But he's also, he's a crypto guy, he's a Bitcoin guy, and I wonder if his perspective on it is, what they're doing with the hedge funds won't break the system, it'll break the hedge funds, and crypto will break the system. | ||
| So that's why he's, you know, telling everybody, you gotta go after crypto, short the whole, you know, short squeeze the whole system. | ||
| But I will say, You know, maybe Max is right. | ||
| Far be it from me to criticize that guy. | ||
| For those that aren't familiar, Max Keiser, he's been in the game for longer than I've been alive. | ||
| And there was a funny video he posted from like 1987 of him ragging on yuppies, and I'm like, dude, I was like one. | ||
| So, respect. | ||
| Respect to Max. | ||
| What I can say is, the Redditors are saying, here's our mission. | ||
| And so what we're seeing now with all of this, it's... | ||
| This is very similar to what happens with any semi-decentralized mass movement. | ||
| We saw it with Occupy Wall Street, the first one. | ||
| A lot of people were like, yo, we're mad at the banks, and then all of a sudden a bunch of people came up and started screaming about unrelated issues. | ||
| I remember I was down at Occupy Wall Street, and they were having a meeting over what their main demand should be. | ||
| Well, everybody was there because the big bank bailouts and the gambling they did that destroyed the market, destroyed everyone's livelihood. | ||
| And I remember one day, while they're having this meeting with like a ton of people, some guy, just like old white dude, randomly stood up and screamed, What is wrong with you people?! ! | ||
| Fracking is the problem! | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's the center of everything! | |
| And I'm like, what does fracking have to do with the banks? | ||
| But in his mind, everything. | ||
| Because he couldn't see past his own desire and demands. | ||
| So now, you're seeing a lot of people posting, now's our chance everybody, buy Dogecoin! | ||
| Why? | ||
| So they can get rich off Dogecoin. | ||
| Buying Dogecoin doesn't hurt anybody. | ||
| And what happens is when the price of Dogecoin collapses because of no demand or interest, then people get left holding an empty bag. | ||
| But what they're doing with GameStop, and AMC, and Bed Bath & Beyond, and American Airlines, these were the short targets. | ||
| So now these hedge funds are going to lose money. | ||
| What they're doing has an impact. | ||
| But a bunch of people saw that power. | ||
| They saw all of these people shining their lights in a single direction, creating a massive, you know, effect. | ||
| And they said, if only I could point that in the direction I want, I could have more power. | ||
| So everyone's trying to now wield the power of Wall Street bets for themselves. | ||
| We're seeing Twitter accounts pop up with the image claiming, like, they're part of the movement or speak, you know, in some way for it. | ||
| We're seeing different Reddits pop up saying very similar things, but there is an overall unity for the most part. | ||
| Like there's a majority of people saying, GameStop. | ||
| AMC. | ||
| Those are the targets. | ||
| Well, the movement's biggest strength is also its biggest weakness because it is decentralized. | ||
| You don't really see a big rallying call. | ||
| You do see a lot of censorship. | ||
| You do see a lot of obfuscation by the mainstream media. | ||
| But it's also a bunch of people being like, hey, and a bunch of noise. | ||
| So it's very hard to kind of organize that into one big vocal kind of representation here. | ||
| So it could be just disorganized chaos that happened organically, or it could be pushed on and spurred on by some other elites who, of course, are benefiting off of people being fractured and divided and conquered. | ||
| Both are possible here. | ||
| But to me, the clear winner today is definitely Popeyes. | ||
| Popeyes chicken? | ||
| Popeyes with their attendees for all campaign with literally providing promo codes for everyone based off the stocks of the Redditors. | ||
| Obviously going into the popular will, obviously tuning into this kind of new movement and trying to of course profit off of it by selling probably most likely GMO chicken. | ||
| I'm down. | ||
| Tell me about this. | ||
| So Popeye's put up a commercial that said, tendies aren't just for the Wall Street elites. | ||
| Tendies are for everyone. | ||
| Because the meme is that when you do really, really well on your stock and you get a profit, you're getting your tendies or whatever. | ||
| So they were like, tendies for everybody! | ||
| So now there's a promo code where if you spend, I guess, here we are promoting Popeye's form. | ||
| You see the game? | ||
| You see how it works? | ||
| They did it. | ||
| It worked. | ||
| It's something like if you spend five bucks, you get free chicken tenders. | ||
| If you order online, you use the promo code of the GME stocks and you get a special discount or something. | ||
| If you do like dollar sign GME, dollar sign AMC. | ||
| So they're using the movement as well. | ||
| Good, good, good. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I love it. | |
| You know why? | ||
| Because regular people will see this and not know it is right. | ||
| If we get more corporate marketing to embrace the idea that there's money to be made from people who are excited and happy about this, then they're going to get more people rallying and coming in and investing those stocks. | ||
| So like if people signed up on TimCast.com with the special promo code... There's no special promo code. | ||
| There aren't those promo codes. | ||
| That'd be a fun game. | ||
| Tendies for all promo code. | ||
| I mean, that's a good idea. | ||
| Dude, if corporate marketing gets behind this, then you see real influential power being like, we're hippin' with it! | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| But hey, sure. | ||
| Fellow kids. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I'm waiting on Amazon to go full awakened. | ||
| I highly doubt that. | ||
| Start accepting cryptocurrency. | ||
| Are you kidding me? | ||
| That's like a very naive point to make. | ||
| Amazon owns Twitch. | ||
| Right on. | ||
| And that's like the streamer Destiny, who's a leftist, got stripped from the partner program because he defended Kyle Rittenhouse. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's so crazy. | |
| That's Amazon. | ||
| They own the Washington Post. | ||
| Who said the hedge funds are the good guys. | ||
| They also said guns are white supremacy and That maybe you shouldn't need $2,000. | ||
| That's the arguments that they're making right now. | ||
| Right now it's simple. | ||
| It's never been more clear. | ||
| If you're trying to figure out what's really going on and what you should support, if the media is saying it, assume the opposite. | ||
| You guys ever see the episode of Seinfeld where George decides, he's such a failure, just one day decides, I'll do literally the opposite of whatever I do and then everything works out for him? | ||
| That's a great episode by the way. | ||
| That's how I feel with the media. | ||
| If the mainstream media is coming out and saying one thing, assume it's just the opposite. | ||
| It's sunny today. | ||
| It must be raining. | ||
| Well that can get confusing because you are the media. | ||
| This is media as well. | ||
| This is corporate media. | ||
| Tim Kess is a corporation. | ||
| Oh come on. | ||
| It is technically corporate media. | ||
| Sure, sure. | ||
| We barely qualify as a small business. | ||
| But it's corporate media, oddly enough. | ||
| There's the billionaire class, and then there's private enterprise. | ||
| This is a private enterprise. | ||
| Amazon is the billionaire class that exploited and used and manipulated government for their own personal benefit. | ||
| That's a whole different category. | ||
| Tesla's the billionaire class. | ||
| They're getting a lot of government contracts as well. | ||
| There are still remnants of good old capitalism alive and well today in this country. | ||
| That people who work hard and provide a good service will find themselves doing well and expanding their business and having a large platform. | ||
| CNN are liars. | ||
| They cheat. | ||
| They steal. | ||
| They manipulate. | ||
| They're propped up by being put in hotels and airports all over the country and the world. | ||
| It's not organic when they get their ratings. | ||
| Now, they're ending CNN Airport. | ||
| But it's all just, it's pumped. | ||
| Look how YouTube, you don't talk about corporate media, YouTube puts CNN and CBS and NBC on the front page. | ||
| I have to just black it out. | ||
| So here's what I'm telling people. | ||
| Right now we have this interesting nonpartisan mass effort where everyone can see the media's lying. | ||
| But listen, capitalists, you know, like people who are not into socialism, look at what's happening with the corruption and the command economy, how these elites can control socialism for me, but not for the essentially. | ||
| They say, see that's socialism, when the powerful elites steal the resource and keep it for themselves. | ||
| Socialists are saying, that's capitalism! | ||
| That through their monopolistic power, they collude and just stop poor people from being able to get access to any of the resources. | ||
| And I'm just like, yo, that's just corruption. | ||
| Laissez-faire capitalism and capitalism can be utopian when we believe in this beautiful world of free trade. | ||
| Socialism can be utopian. | ||
| My personal opinion, you need a little bit of both. | ||
| You need a little mixed economy here. | ||
| You need some social programs, but you gotta have a good system that can weed out failing programs and improve them, and you need market competition and the ability of individuals to work and trade as they see fit. | ||
| Right now, it's the wrong conversation, because we should be all in agreement. | ||
| Whatever you want to call it, there's a group of extremely powerful elites who are stripping away the resources and value from working class people. | ||
| You want to call that socialism? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Fine. | |
| You want to call it capitalism? | ||
| I don't care. | ||
| Can we just arrest some people? | ||
| Can we just get some rallying behind the manipulation? | ||
| Can we call out this... | ||
| Purposefully circuitous system that makes it so hard to track. | ||
| When you're trying to figure out how any of this stuff works and you're like, I don't know how these companies are. | ||
| So no one knows what the Fed is. | ||
| No one knows how the Federal Reserve works. | ||
| It's sad and true, man. | ||
| And not a lot of people know much about it. | ||
| And I don't even know much about it as much as I'd like to. | ||
| I want to have an expert on here. | ||
| Well, I think David Portnoy... I could work on that. | ||
| David Portnoy, I think, said it best. | ||
| Jail. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's it. | |
| Jail. | ||
| So what do we need? | ||
| I agree. | ||
| SEC to go after the DTCC. | ||
| The former head of the SEC made comments very favorable towards the hedge fund, very against these Reddit traders. | ||
| Elizabeth Warren defended the hedge funds. | ||
| I saw that. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Who does the arrest then? | ||
| Who does the investigation? | ||
| The Justice Department? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, no, no, no. | |
| It's the local sheriff who will come and arrest you, Ian, for daring to speak up against the regime. | ||
| But who's going to go after the DTCC for extorting Robin Hood? | ||
| No. | ||
| No. | ||
| No one's gonna go after them. | ||
| You're the rabble. | ||
| They come for you. | ||
| I'm not the rabble, Tim. | ||
| No one's gonna arrest these people. | ||
| People always naively think that the law applies to everyone. | ||
| It doesn't. | ||
| When you're super rich, you live by a whole different standard of laws and rules that don't apply to you that apply to everyone else. | ||
| Is that always the case? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| No, no, no, no, no. | ||
| It's not the super rich. | ||
| It's the club. | ||
| Because look at that lawyer. | ||
| There was that FBI lawyer who fabricated evidence. | ||
| The establishment elite. | ||
| Are you correcting me? | ||
| I agree with you. | ||
| Look at Jack Ma. | ||
| That's another great example of the club. | ||
| Someone with money. | ||
| Has he resurfaced yet? | ||
| Look, they're investigating. | ||
| They're investigating Elon Musk now. | ||
| They're going after him. | ||
| Because he allegedly didn't hire enough non-US citizens. | ||
| I think that's the story. | ||
| Lydia, can you look that up? | ||
| Elon Musk investigated for hiring non-U.S. | ||
| citizens, which is a little bit mind-boggling, but I think in the Justice Department you have a mandatory thing that you need to hire non-U.S. | ||
| citizens. | ||
| Either way, the issue is Elon Musk may be, I think, the second richest guy on the planet. | ||
| They will come after him. | ||
| That's the article. | ||
| They do not like him. | ||
| Yeah, you found it. | ||
| He's not in the club, but the reality is the club is falling apart. | ||
| And I think it says it in the second byline there. | ||
| The DOJ's Immigrant and Employee Rights Section said it received a complaint of employment discrimination from a non-U.S. | ||
| citizen in May, and said SpaceX refused to comply with the subpoena for relevant documents related to hiring. | ||
| My mind is blown. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Well, there you go. | ||
| I know that he's pretty harsh about who he hires and fires. | ||
| The U.S. | ||
| Department of Justice is investigating SpaceX over whether the company discriminates against non-U.S. | ||
| citizens in its hiring, according to court documents filed on Thursday. | ||
| That's insane. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow! | |
| That is crazy. | ||
| I remember reading that a couple days ago and reporting on it on my channel. | ||
| I'm like, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. | ||
| They're going after him for that? | ||
| You can't discriminate against... Listen, we're America. | ||
| We're not... Look, look, you know what I think? | ||
| They don't have social security numbers. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| How is that supposed to work? | ||
| Isn't it painfully obvious right now what's happening? | ||
| The club... Okay, so we talked about something a while ago about... I think it was last week I was talking about Hillary Clinton losing. | ||
| And I was like, I always thought the game was rigged. | ||
| You know, I was just like, what's the point of voting? | ||
| And then Donald Trump won. | ||
| And I was like, huh, I guess you really can get your candidate to win. | ||
| That restored my faith in the system. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right. | |
| But then I wondered, how is it that he won? | ||
| Like certainly the establishment elites who manipulate media and manipulate the markets could have wrangled up enough effort to, to win. | ||
| And I'm not talking about fraud or cheating. | ||
| I'm talking about, you know, mail-in voting systems, about changing laws, about, you know, um, Running stories like what they're doing right now about silver. | ||
| Just blatantly wrong stories. | ||
| Over-manipulation. | ||
| And it's because they underestimated the internet and the meme magic. | ||
| No joke. | ||
| Trump was memed into the presidency. | ||
| And they overestimated Hillary Clinton. | ||
| Definitely. | ||
| And so then I started to think, maybe the establishment elites, who normally have an airtight control over the media and the narrative and the system, are slipping. | ||
| They're losing their grip. | ||
| Now you look at what's going on with GameStop, the GameStop stocks, and it's like they're losing their grip. | ||
| The hedge funds are bleeding out cash. | ||
| Now you look at how the media responded with this, what looks to be a coordinated smear campaign to trick regular Americans into buying up this SLV, losing money. | ||
| But we can see right through it now. | ||
| It's almost like, you know, The Wizard of Oz and they pulled the curtain back and we can see the man behind the curtain. | ||
| And he's still going! | ||
| Just close my eyes and they won't see me. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| When I was on the show, one of the first times, you were like, what do we do? | ||
| What's the solution? | ||
| I'm like, memes. | ||
| And you're like, what do you mean? | ||
| What do you mean memes? | ||
| What are you talking about? | ||
| And I'm like, dude, you don't get it, man. | ||
| There's a whole culture that even Popeye's is picking up on. | ||
| And the memes are literally the ones that are waking people up and are more effective than a lot of the mainstream media propaganda. | ||
| Lydia? | ||
| The cathedral is terrified of memes. | ||
| I think ever since Trump was elected, I think watching this GameStop stuff is really making it worse. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| There's a lot of even documents that are uncovered. | ||
| And I have to refresh myself. | ||
| And I don't want to speak out of hand here. | ||
| And I think they were referred to... | ||
| to special operations talking about me more fair that was released by Edward Snowden I have to double check but there's this is something that of course government agencies see as a massive threat and I think that I think the memes I mean they're they're viral right now I'm tweeting and I'm instagramming a whole bunch of them all the time because Just in that one simple image, in that simple representation, you're able to get across ideas so much more effectively than any video, than any photo, than any article, than any other kind of media form. | ||
| And it's really its own form and the shares and the clicks and the way that this spreads is just exactly how this whole Reddit movement started. | ||
| And exactly how it has a momentum and has an energy. | ||
| And when you look at even, you know, the Epstein situation, no one even knew about it until the memes started coming out, and that hashtag started coming out. | ||
| So this is key and essential, and looking at the memes now, things are looking in favor of the Redditors. | ||
| There's something really interesting. | ||
| Jon Stewart, I guess, joined Twitter recently. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And he tweeted, cheering on the Redditors. | ||
| He joined Twitter. | ||
| Did I say Reddit? | ||
| He joined Twitter and started cheering... No, you said Twitter. | ||
| Okay, and now he's cheering on the Redditors and GameStyle, saying, good, kick it to Wall Street, you know, take them for what they're worth. | ||
| Jimmy Kimmel. | ||
| So I couldn't find the tweet. | ||
| I don't know if Jimmy Kimmel deleted it, but a bunch of people were sharing it. | ||
| Yeah, I saw it. | ||
| Apparently he said, real Donald Trump, is this you? | ||
| Or something like that. | ||
| That you? | ||
| Dude, he is obsessed. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, no, no, no. | |
| Someone made a really good point. | ||
| Jon Stewart is an old school liberal who has been out of the game for several years. | ||
| He's probably been minding his own business for the most part, not realizing the realignment that's occurred. | ||
| Jimmy Kimmel is realignment left. | ||
| So he's mocking Jon Stewart. | ||
| Jon Stewart comes out and says the right thing as a leftist, and he gets accused of being Trump. | ||
| And you look at what CNN said. | ||
| Trumpism explains what's going on with CNN. | ||
| Jimmy Kimmel has lost... I mean, maybe I'm just preaching to the choir, this is obvious, but he is completely gone. | ||
| Well, if you look at... He's gone. | ||
| He's gone. | ||
| I was going to say something kind of offensive, you know, that term off the Native American The whole phrase off the reservation is a very racist phrase I've come to learn. | ||
| I didn't know the origin. | ||
| It just means something about a Native American leaving and then it's like that makes them crazy or something. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Back to Jimmy Kimmel here, I mean when you look at him, you look at his eyes, he looks beaten. | ||
| He looks defeated. | ||
| He looks like, you know, I don't want to kind of expound on here, but he looks like he's not there. | ||
| He looks like he's just absolutely miserable doing his job. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Look, look, when I see a lot of these people in media, Colbert and Kimmel and these like late night hosts, there's no passion. | ||
| They don't care. | ||
| It's like, dude, give me the script and I'll read it. | ||
| Okay, so Russian bots are buying stock, and what's that line? | ||
| Reditor? | ||
| I don't know what that is. | ||
| Oh, they're bad guys. | ||
| And I would advise everyone to go watch this Kimmel talk. | ||
| It's 30 seconds long, and he mentions that the Redditors might be Russian assets. | ||
| Russian bots. | ||
| Did he write that, or did his writers write that and hand it to him, and he just went with it? | ||
| It's the Cathedral, man. | ||
| It's disgusting. | ||
| What does Russia have anything to do with these Russian people? | ||
| Well, Bloomberg even went on to describe people a part of this larger movement as insurrectionist. | ||
| So did the former SEC chairman. | ||
| So we have to understand that this is aggressive language that we're seeing towards poor people playing the market and outsmarting the people who used to play the market, the hedge funds. | ||
| This reminds me of Occupy Wall Street. | ||
| Because at Occupy Wall Street, the banks began to rupture. | ||
| You could see their terror. | ||
| The whole industry was like, you know what, the jig is up. | ||
| We're done for. | ||
| Let's save as many of our necks as we can because it's over. | ||
| Just really quick, I want to make a point here. | ||
| What made Occupy Wall Street prominent, because it was ignored for a very long time, was a disproportionate response by the state. | ||
| They were extremely aggressive and they hit back very hard. | ||
| And there was one pepper spray incident that really went viral that started everything. | ||
| Tony Bologna. | ||
| Tony Bologna, exactly. | ||
| And it was literally overreaction by the state. | ||
| We're seeing another overreaction by the authorities, by the establishment right now as we're speaking with this absurdity that some people are calling news. | ||
| Let me tell you, Luke. | ||
| Democracy dies in darkness. | ||
| Did you know this? | ||
| The Washington Post, which is the Bezos Times, in their op-ed about the hedge funds being the good guys, let me read a passage for you. | ||
| They said, This time is different. | ||
| The GameStop speculators are not merely in a frenzy about one stock. | ||
| Their goal is to destroy the traders who link stock prices to fair value. | ||
| To suggest a political analogy, they are not just blindly devoted to their candidate. | ||
| They deny the legitimacy of the opposition party. | ||
| They are not just acting within the system. | ||
| They want to overthrow the system. | ||
| It's as though, just imagine, a rabble gripped by conspiracy theories were to attack the rules of democracy itself. | ||
| The name GameStop is apt. | ||
| Do you know what that passage is saying? | ||
| They're saying the Redditors are the same thing as Trump supporters, and the action they're taking is the same as the insurrection. | ||
| They're calling it, you know, essentially the insurrection attacking democracy itself, the storming of the Capitol. | ||
| Who wrote that, by the way? | ||
| Oh, you're gonna like this, Luke. | ||
| This is Sebastian Malaby. | ||
| He's the Paul A. Volker Senior Fellow for International Economics at the Council on Foreign Relations. | ||
| Ah, okay, makes perfect sense there. | ||
| Oh, the CFR! | ||
| Yes, I know the CFR. | ||
| They kicked me out of there permanently and banned me. | ||
| You were walking around with Volker. | ||
| Yes, I had a very interesting conversation with Mr. Paul Volker. | ||
| You could look it up on WeAreChange. | ||
| He was actually very nice, but he was lost, so I was literally telling him where to go into a secret VIP room that he accidentally took me into. | ||
| Because security goes like, oh, he's clearly with him. | ||
| And then that's when he brought me to Ben Bernanke, another individual who, by the way, is also a senior advisor at Citadel, which people should know, and is also the former chairman of the U.S. | ||
| Federal Reserve. | ||
| And Citadel owns stock, the silver stock. | ||
| That's you said that's like 50 percent of their own. | ||
| I guess they own SLV. | ||
| Look, I'm just basically going off of what Wall Street bets has been saying about what's going on. | ||
| So you went to the CFR. | ||
| I kind of want to touch on this. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| A number of times where they had press events and it was actually This is a wild story too. | ||
| It was Eric Schmidt's girlfriend who kicked me out of the CFR permanently. | ||
| Because I was always coming in there and then they kicked me out and they denied me press credentials. | ||
| So I had an alias that I went under. | ||
| I got in there again. | ||
| Then they kicked me out. | ||
| Then I had a third alias. | ||
| Can you say your alias? | ||
| I don't want to say. | ||
| Well, I'll release one of them. | ||
| One of them is public and his name was Bill and last name DeBurke. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So when you read that together, it makes a statement about another secret. | |
| They didn't notice. | ||
| They're like, oh, you got Mr. Bill here. | ||
| Let him in. | ||
| Because I did the accreditation, I had the credentials, they let me into the Council on Foreign Relations and they had press conferences and I stood up, asked my question like everyone else, but the difference was I wasn't kissing butt, I wasn't throwing softballs, I went right for the gullet verbally with hardcore, legitimate, reasonable questions. | ||
| That should have been asked about corruption and all these horrible things that these people do in secret. | ||
| That was finally exposed with this questioning. | ||
| They hated it. | ||
| Kicked me out three times. | ||
| And the fourth time, Eric Schmidt's girlfriend, because I looked who this was, gave me a call personally. | ||
| She's like, Luke, we know who you are. | ||
| Stop it. | ||
| You're banned. | ||

And I'm like, ladies and gentlemen, I waited outside by the way. | |
| Who's Eric Schmidt again? | ||
| Eric Schmidt is the former chairman of Alphabet, the former head of Google, who also is working with the government, especially the Pentagon, on their technological advancements of the military. | ||
| Now that you've mentioned Eric Schmidt is formerly the head of Google, if you were wondering why we might get banned in the future, it's because this guy's got us sitting right here. | ||
| Well, my channel was kicked out of the partner program, I think very unfairly. | ||
| I mean, if... I mean... | ||
| Did you ever find out why? | ||
| No. | ||
| Oh, come on. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| He, he, he, he, you ambushed Eric Schmidt. | ||
| I didn't ambush. | ||
| I asked him a question. | ||
| Ambush journalism is just a reference to you seeing him walking and going up and asking him a question. | ||
| I'm not saying it derogatory way. | ||
| I politely asked him about financing and fundraising. | ||
| A lot of the tink thanks, uh, that were. | ||
| Tink thanks? | ||
| Sorry. | ||
| You know what I'm saying here? | ||
| Think tanks that were organizing the term fake news because the term fake news kind of came out of nowhere and it was galvanized as a way pushed by Hillary Clinton to go against Donald Trump to go against independent media. | ||
| And it all started, according to a lot of investigative journalism, from a lot of the groups that were financed directly by him and Google. | ||
| So I went up to him and I was like, hey, Eric Schmidt, let's talk about you working with Hillary Clinton on her campaign. | ||
| Let's talk about you donating to her and you helping her create some of the biggest buzzwords that the media is using right now and weaponizing right now to destroy free speech. | ||
| And then he looked you in the eyes and said, listen, you're your little pissant. | ||
|

I'm going to strip your YouTube channel from the partner program. | |
| He was like, this is effing absurd. | ||
| You're effing crazy. | ||
| I'm like, sir, please stop cursing. | ||
| You're going to get my YouTube video demonetized. | ||
| And obviously I knew that, you know, but that's not the first time we got him. | ||
| We also got him at another Bilderberg in Switzerland. | ||
| This is all, of course, as he's going to the Bilderberg group meeting, which the mainstream media by and large chooses not to report on, even though it's 150 of the most influential people come together in secret. | ||
| Let's hit that point. | ||
| How do these all factor in? | ||
| There's Bilderberg, Davos, and the Council on Foreign Relations. | ||
| There's also the Trilateral Commission, and there's groups within groups within groups, and affiliations within all these different groups, and I could talk about this for hours. | ||
| But one last thing before we segue, I kind of really wanted to bring up some of the amazing positive stories. | ||
| We should focus on some of those here. | ||
| And those are of individuals who enriched themselves through this whole GameStop saga, and they're doing incredible things. | ||
| The New York Post has an article right now that is titled, College Student Donates GameStop Gains to Buy Video Games for Sick Kids. | ||
| And there's a large number of these individuals actually going out of their way, taking profit, and doing really amazing things that are helping people. | ||
| You look at the hedge funds. | ||
| That money, that's hedge fund money. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| What did Head Funds do? | ||
| The CEO of Melvin Capital is still moving forward with literally destroying and bulldozing a house next to his so he could build a tennis court. | ||
| That's what Melvin Capital is. | ||
| This kid, he's making sure sick kids get video games. | ||
| He's making sure people get help in their communities. | ||
| And you see tons of these stories. | ||
| There was another post on Reddit that said, this is for my father. | ||
| That was absolutely a tearjerker, that talked about a lot of the bigger things, a lot of the bigger reasons, a lot of the motive behind this, which is absolutely important to know. | ||
| The story was that his dad's construction company, I believe, construction, was destroyed by the housing market crisis caused by these big banks, and that since then he's become like basically a destitute alcoholic who's lost the will to live. | ||
| And so he's like, this is for you dad, this is, you know, I love that. | ||
| The sun has come back for vengeance against those but ... | ||
| this is important a lot of these reddit kids saw their ... | ||
| families devastated especially in 2008 they were kicked out ... | ||
| of their homes in the in the housing market crisis last ... | ||
| year they had their private businesses enterprises shut ... | ||
| down by the lockdowns and here they are saying we're going to ... | ||
| come together and we're going to play by the rules are going ... | ||
| to work the market towards the benefit of everyone we're ... | ||
| going to literally be Robin Hood in the modern day and age ... | ||
| and what happens the system conspires colludes against ... | ||
| them calls them insurrectionist calls them ... | ||
| losers says they're connected to Russia says that they're ... | ||
| going to be cutting themselves and and and. | ||
| They know it. | ||
| themselves. Are you kidding me because they made a little bit | ||
| of money that they're actually spreading around to the economy. That is sick and disgusting bastardization of | ||
| news and people's responsibility. If you're a journalist right now and you're not reporting on this | ||
| fairly and honestly, you are not a journalist. You're a propaganda | ||
| mouthpiece for the establishment elite and you have no soul within yourself and I'm sick of these people. They know it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And they don't care. Like when I saw that Bloomberg that clip | ||
| from Wall Street about about the Bloomberg saying Redditors I'm like, what are you talking about? | ||
| It's the number one post right now on Reddit telling people to buy more stock. | ||
| One dude just announced he's putting a million dollars into GameStop. | ||
| A million bucks right now. | ||
| The interest is not going down. | ||
| They are lying. | ||
| These are not journalists. | ||
| They know. | ||
| They're propagandists for the state. | ||
| And they know what they're doing. | ||
| For the longest time, I've given many of them the benefit of the doubt. | ||
| But each and every one of these was writing an article saying, buy silver! | ||
| Redditors want you to buy silver. | ||
| They know they are lying. | ||
| Or they're just useful idiots who are too stupid to do their job. | ||
| One thing's for sure, they're not journalists. | ||
| But listen, listen. | ||
| This is a good segue, because my friends... | ||
| Why is it that Washington, D.C. | ||
| is putting up these permanent barricades now in the Green Zone? | ||
| You hear about this, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| So you know how they set up the barricades all around D.C.? | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| It's permanent. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| When did they decide to make this permanent? | ||
| Last week. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And they're going to leave 5,000 National Guardsmen there. | ||
| I've heard of this. | ||
| You know why? | ||
| There is a real threat. | ||
| There is. | ||
| They keep saying there's a threat of white supremacy in the far right. | ||
| It's not really that. | ||
| I mean, they'll say that, but there is a threat. | ||
| The real threat is the rabble, who can see the shat- they can see now through the shattered veil. | ||
| It's almost like the Matrix. | ||
| And then one day, all these robots are tending to the human crop, and then a bunch of humans wake up. | ||
| And they can see what's going on around them. | ||
| And if the machine doesn't get a hold of things, those people are gonna get real angry, and they're gonna rise up. | ||
| So we see this massive security effort in DC. | ||
| Now we see the next and most interesting iteration in the desperation of the state because they're really scared about what happens when people realize not only is the game rigged, but we are stealing everything from you and your family and we're laughing the whole way down. | ||
| A new gun bill would require public registry of all weapons. | ||
| This is H.R. | ||
|
unidentified
|
127. | |
| This is one of the most insane things I've ever read, to the point where I really don't think it will pass. | ||
| But this is a new gun control measure. | ||
| It's been proposed by Jackson Lee Sheila, a Democrat from Texas. | ||
| And it requires a lot of things. | ||
| I don't know if you have a lot of the points on the gun control bill. | ||
| I do. | ||
| That you want to bring up specifically? | ||
| I want to bring up more about that security theater you were bringing up because there's a CNN legal analyst named Elliot Williams who tweeted, quote, seems like a good day for a reminder that in any other year hundreds of giddy children from across Washington DC would be sledding at the Capitol building all day long. | ||
| They can't because the grounds are closed to the public following a domestic terrorist attack. | ||
| And then, I mean, just the hyperbolic, just the fear-mongering, just the nonsense there. | ||
| And I think Michael Tracy had a response that is worth noting here and commenting on. | ||
| And he said, or alternatively, the children can't sled on the hill because a security theater panic has been ginned up and virtually no one in a position of influence has bothered even questioning it. | ||
| I think he's wrong. | ||
| Why? | ||
| It's not security theater. | ||
| It could be. | ||
| No, no, no, no, no. | ||
| I'll tell you, it's that the media right now, their lies are so obvious. | ||
| Luke, you were telling me about the Killdozer. | ||
| Yes, I watched a documentary about the Killdozer and my goodness gracious. | ||
| Give us the gist of the Killdozer story. | ||
| It was an individual who felt wronged by city council and he decided to take out his feelings of being mistreated by the government by literally building huge slabs of steel surrounding a giant bulldozer which he put in a 50 caliber Firearm that was shooting out of and other rifles out of through little ports and went on a rampage in a small town Literally going after anyone who thought he was wrong. | ||
| They couldn't stop him. | ||
| It's called the killdozer and And he only got stopped because his killdozer fell into a basement. | ||
| He like destroyed a city councilman's house or whatever? | ||
| Well, he was going after one of the businesses that was owned by one of the people that was wrong. | ||
| Okay, okay. | ||
| It's not security theater. | ||
| Now, the media's lying about, in my opinion, I think the media's lying about the threat, the far right. | ||
| No, I think the real threat is that the veil has been shattered. | ||
| They know it. | ||
| They know we can now see them all working the machines behind the scenes going, uh-oh, what do we do now? | ||
| If you have one person who feels wronged by the government in that way, and this one person goes nuts and builds a killdozer, I mean, this is freaky stuff. | ||
| We don't want this stuff. | ||
| We don't want this, this, this. | ||
| No, no. | ||
| We need to do everything in our power to prevent violence. | ||
| But you prevent it. | ||
| As much as we can. | ||
| By having justice. | ||
| But these, these, these crony machines, the crony machine doesn't want that. | ||
| Instead, they're now putting up massive barricades around the Capitol so that, so they're like... | ||
| We know what's coming. | ||
| We know the rage is there, and they don't care if it's... Look, the media will tell you one thing, but that's the point I bring up. | ||
| That's why I bring up this new firearms restriction, like the restrictions, HR 127. | ||
| They want you to have a license and insurance and a whole bunch of crazy things. | ||
| Listen. | ||
| The crazy thing about it is that there are a lot of people right now who have a bunch of guns. | ||
| They would want you to pay fees, get liability insurance. | ||
| They would want you to register each and every weapon. | ||
| Mandatory psych evaluations, a national gun owner license, gun insurance for everything, as well as a publicly accessible database, and they want to ban 50 BMGs. | ||
| I mean, are you kidding me? | ||
| I mean, this is absolutely draconian. | ||
| This is frightening. | ||
| This is terrifying because you know, there's going to be a lot of individuals who are not going to register their firearms and this house resolution makes it so you have to or you face penalties and fines that could land you in jail for a year to 40 years. | ||
| Look at this. | ||
| Let me read you from this article I have. | ||
| This is from the Daily Fly. | ||
| They say a pro-gun group called the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms called the bill insanity on | ||
| steroids They say over the years we've seen some astonishingly bad | ||
| legislation originated on Capitol Hill But this one takes the term abomination to an entirely new | ||
| level One look at this bill and you wonder whether congressman | ||
| Jackson Lee ever heard of the Bill of Rights which includes the Second Amendment | ||
| The bill would also ban all .50 caliber weapons. | ||
| All .50 cals. | ||
| Not just BMG. | ||
| All .50 cal. | ||
| Now, my friends, a couple years ago, I talked about, I was like, oh, maybe you have liability insurance or, you know, a license. | ||
| And someone responded to me, that's great, it's a really good idea, Tim. | ||
| I'm totally in favor of getting you insurance, liability insurance for your speech, and you have to get a license to be able to speak publicly. | ||
| And then I was like, wait, wait, no, no, I don't want that. | ||
| Like, oh, I see your point. | ||
| The Bill of Rights says these things are inalienable rights. | ||
| We have the right to keep and bear arms. | ||
| We have the right to speech. | ||
| And I said, okay, you're right. | ||
| I don't want any restrictions on my speech for the most part, except for like committing a crime. | ||
| And it's already illegal to commit a crime with a weapon. | ||
| Therefore, all right, you should be able to have a weapon. | ||
| Now they're doing everything in their power to, you know, make these moves. | ||
| We knew it was coming under Joe Biden. | ||
| But this, when I read this, like it's a whole, insanity on steroids is an understatement. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| More importantly, I don't think it will pass because you're going to have some, you know, more moderate Democrats, especially like, I can't see Bernie Sanders agreeing with this. | ||
| Well, there are some pro-gun Democrats out there, but we also have to remember there has been a huge surge of new gun owners. | ||
| Yeah, a lot of them from cities a lot of them from Democratic areas that are understanding that hey, you know, maybe I shouldn't wait 15 20 30 minutes for a police to respond. | ||
| Maybe it'll be better if I have something that I could defend myself with just like all the celebrities and politicians have you know, they have all these security guards. | ||
| They have all these people always protecting them with firearms and and with this, you know law. | ||
| With this resolution that they're trying to get past, H.R. | ||
| 127, this is going to lead to massive amount of harm. | ||
| This is going to lead to a massive amount of problems. | ||
| That's only going to make the situation that much worse. | ||
| It would ban gun ownership for people under 21. | ||
| What? | ||
| It's not gonna happen. | ||
| You're a legal adult at 18. | ||
| You have constitutional rights. | ||
| You can fight in the military at 18. | ||
| We've already seen just how bad the laws are. | ||
| I've been thinking a lot more about this as I now own a decent quantity of firearms myself. | ||
| The second amendment says the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. | ||
| The right to bear arms shall not be infringed, right? | ||
| So should I be able to walk around bearing arms? | ||
| Well, depends on where you're walking around, but for the most part. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Why? | |
| Where? | ||
| What does that mean, where? | ||
| If you're walking around my living room, I might have a say in it. | ||
| Well, that's private property. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It has nothing to do with the gun. | ||
| Look, if someone breaks in your house with a gun, it's a crime. | ||
| Even if I invite you over and you just pulled out a gun and I didn't know you had one? | ||
| You'd ask me to leave. | ||
| I'd probably freak out. | ||
| Yeah, but it's not a crime. | ||
| If you invite someone to your house, the issue is, in many places, in like, the vast majority of places, the government tells you you can't bear arms. | ||
| No lie. | ||
| Like, legitimately. | ||
| I was at the post office the other day, and there was a sign in the door saying it is a violation of federal law to have a firearm inside, you know, a post office or whatever. | ||
| And I was like, how do they do that? | ||
| Does the Constitution not exist? | ||
| I'm sorry. | ||
| I'm not saying it's a good thing to walk around with a gun literally everywhere. | ||
| Like, I'm not saying that someone should open carry walking into a post office. | ||
| I'm saying, isn't it weird the Constitution says you can't do it, and they literally did, and that's it. | ||
| The Constitution is beyond Swiss cheese. | ||
| It is tattered rags. | ||
| So while I look at this and I'm thinking it won't pass, when you look at what, you know, Luke and other people are calling security theater, you look at the rage people have and the manipulation tactics are starting to fail. | ||
| They are getting scared to the point where I think they'll try and ram this through. | ||
| Yeah, maybe, but it's junk. | ||
| I mean, you can't, there's so many ghost guns now that have been 3D printed and unregistered. | ||
| No one's going to, those people. | ||
| Reality check are not going to register their weapons, and if you try and pass a stupid bill like that, you're going to make a large segment of the American people criminals, and then that will lead to civil unrest at a level we haven't seen yet, so don't do it. | ||
| Well, normally I'd say I wouldn't necessarily agree, because I think the American people typically comply. | ||
| But I read a story about red flag laws. | ||
| There was this old guy, and it was apparently like, I don't know, some ex-girlfriend or ex-wife called the police saying he was unwell and he was armed. | ||
| So the police came to serve a red flag warrant, or whatever they call it, That's where they take your guns away. | ||
| They show up at your house, you've committed no crime, and they say, someone thinks you're unwell, you have to give us your guns, and then wait a period until we undergo an evaluation, and then you'll get your guns back. | ||
| And if you fail, then you don't get your guns back. | ||
| So this guy, he's an older guy, he's in his 60s I guess, hears a knock at the door, and he grabs his gun, and he answers the door with the gun, and the cops tell him, we're here to take your guns, and he says, like, hell you are, and so they fight over his gun, and then they shot and killed the guy. | ||
| When people say, my cold dead hands, they mean it. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And God forbid a situation where the cops go to serve something like that and the cops get killed. | ||
| And then the cops are like, I'm not serving those stupid red flag things anymore. | ||
| I'm not putting myself there. | ||
| I'm not going into someone's house when they're armed and crazy to take their weapon. | ||
| It's not my job. | ||
| Let me ask you, Luke. | ||
| Are you familiar with the phrase, when the government, when the people fear their government, there's tyranny, but when the government fears their people, there's liberty? | ||
| I think I heard about that one. | ||
| Who said that? | ||
| Thomas Jefferson? | ||
| Was it? | ||
| I believe so. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I believe that was it. | ||
| These barricades that are being put up around D.C., are they for a foreign threat? | ||
| Definitely not. | ||
| The government seems to fear its people right now, but I'm not seeing a whole lot of liberty. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And also, you know, a lot of the things that are called upon with this House resolution are absolutely nonsensical. | ||
| They don't make any sense. | ||
| If you want to stop gun violence, you would deal with inner cities where guns are banned. | ||
| That's where most of the gun homicides are at. | ||
| Same with suicide, same with police officer shootings. | ||
| When you look at the statistics, people having the ability to defend themselves is not a bad thing. | ||
| Overall, especially in the kind of grander experiment in the United States, if you look at places that are more gun-friendly, where you have more freedoms to bear arms, you have a lot less crime, you have a lot less murders, you have a lot less homicides. | ||
| And I think that's because people are equalized by knowing that they could defend themselves. | ||
| Are you allowed to open carry in Austin, Texas? | ||
| I don't know about Austin, Texas specifically. | ||
| They do have a very left-leaning mayor and a lot of transplants from California do move there. | ||
| Gun laws are extremely spotty all over the United States. | ||
| There's no universal law. | ||
| You know, places in New Hampshire, you could literally open carry anywhere and everywhere you go except for federal buildings. | ||
| But other places like New York City, they make you jump through impossible hoops just to get a firearm for personal home defense. | ||
| So, again, they vary. | ||
| It all depends on the state, and there's so many different laws that ban one thing in one state, but it's totally legal in another state. | ||
| Well, I looked up austintexas.gov, and it says that you can open carry in the state of Texas. | ||
| Is there widespread death, mayhem, and murder from people who are legally owning guns in the city? | ||
|
unidentified
|
In Texas? | |
| Not that we've seen. | ||
| Nope. | ||
| You know, so I was looking at some rural areas and, you know, driving around places in West Virginia and wondering, | ||
| you know, I was thinking to myself, it's really funny. | ||
| There's like volunteer fire department. | ||
| There's no real police department. | ||
| It's like sheriffs. | ||
| So where's all the gun violence from all these gun owners? | ||
| In the inner cities. | ||
| It doesn't exist, but that's not true for Austin. | ||
| Like Austin has open carry. | ||
| Texas is legit. | ||
| So what's wrong with New York, California and Chicago? | ||
| They're packed in. | ||
| Well, people people don't know that's not I mean people are sure if a criminal wants a gun or a Weapon or to hurt someone they're gonna find it one way or another in Europe. | ||
| They're using trucks. | ||
| They're using buses They're using knives and there's even conversations in the United Kingdom about banning knives and they have in some jurisdictions Dude, they arrested- there was this big story a couple years ago where they arrested a construction worker for having, I think, a Leatherman. | ||
| And they're like, it's a knife, sir. | ||
| And he was like, but the law exempts, like, tools. | ||
| And they're like, sir, it's a knife. | ||
| And so they confiscated it and gave him a fine or something like that. | ||
| That's the UK. | ||
| I've seen stories about kids in my neighborhood tying a shoelace to a padlock and then swinging it and whacking someone in the head with it. | ||
| So they banned padlocks. | ||
| No joke. | ||
| They were like, padlocks are banned. | ||
| And I was like, why? | ||
| And they were like, because someone tied it to a shoelace and whacked someone. | ||
| You could fill a sock with sand and break someone's skull with it. | ||
| You don't ban sand. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Well, sand wouldn't work all that well. | ||
| You have to do quarters. | ||
| That's what they do. | ||
| They put change. | ||
| Quarters would do it. | ||
| And then they put it in a sock. | ||
| Forks make people fat. | ||
| We should ban forks. | ||
| You could stab someone with a fork. | ||
| You may want to consider... I'm not even going to joke about that. | ||
| No, it really is crazy to me that there's serious cultural problems in guns. | ||
| There's no correlation. | ||
| I mean, look, people in New York have guns, and people will get shot. | ||
| It's getting worse and worse and worse. | ||
| It's up a ridiculous amount percentage-wise. | ||
| Chicago, right? | ||
| But why is it that in places where guns are heavily restricted, you have these problems, and in places where guns aren't heavily restricted, you kind of don't have these problems? | ||
| It's a bit of a leap. | ||
| pharmaceutical drugs, okay, well no no banning these tools won't make a difference because it won't address the | ||
| problems that you know particular cities Are dealing with cultural problems family problems father | ||
| problems family problems? | ||
| There's a lot of bigger issues out there that if you really want to prevent harm you could actually do | ||
| But what are my favorite things was you know I saw an advertisement | ||
| I actually saw this on reddit too, and it was eat McDonald's and right next to it is like social distance | ||
| It's for your safety. | ||
| It's like, you know, you have these two larger contradictory messages out there, you know, and this idea that the government cares for you, that we need a bigger government to fix the the government's problems that they created themselves it's just it's it's insane and and gun control i mean it's a step towards total tyranny because once they go after that i mean anything's on the table for what they could do to you and we saw governments in canada governments in australia really push it to the limit to what they could do with their citizens right after they got rid of their ability to have | ||
| uh... you know firearms and we saw huge legislation canada australia | ||
| almost eliminated people's abilities to defend themselves it's not even i don't | ||
| i think you're saying that in the tool won't change anything and i | ||
| i think even out in places like west virginia | ||
| gun laws are it's it's totally cultural Everything we're seeing, the crime, the problems, culture problems, the lack of crime, it also has nothing to do with guns. | ||
| I don't think the fact that someone can open carry deters crime. | ||
| I'm thinking about how you can talk to a sheriff and he's going to be like, hey man, you know, I'm not going to go in and mess with you and do these things. | ||
| You go to New York and Tony Bologna pepper sprays four women on the street for no reason. | ||
| It's cultural problems in big cities where people are nasty. | ||
| And you know what I think it is? | ||
| A lot of people say like, oh, it's the blue, it's the Democrats. | ||
| And I'm like, no, no, I think, I think culture in decay in blue cities leads to corrupt politicians who use feel-good Democrat policies to gain power. | ||
| And then you look at these other cities where they have open carry and things like that. | ||
| It's because they're more trusting of each other. | ||
| It's like, you want to open carry? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| I'm not worried about you. | ||
| I don't think you're going to shoot me. | ||
| Right? | ||
| In New York, they're like, you can't have that because I'm worried you're going to shoot me. | ||
| In DC, they put up big fences and a security primer because they're scared people are going to come after them. | ||
| It's absolutely hypocritical to see individuals like Nancy Pelosi that wants machine guns at the Capitol telling you, you can't have a firearm. | ||
| You can't defend yourself. | ||
| You can't have a quote, weapon of war. | ||
| And we're seeing such bastardized language. | ||
| We're seeing such Orwellian tactics used here to make you paint As some kind of crazy terrorist criminal if you believe in the right to defend yourself no no you're you're just a logical thinking human being that understands just like it as you keep saying to him it's important to have a fire extinguisher in your house because again it's not that you're going to of course look for fires but but it's there in case there is one and that preventative | ||
| Prevents a lot of crime. | ||
| Let's just be honest here when we see Strong-armed robberies. | ||
| They don't take place where they have a lot of individuals that are that are armed Yeah, usually take place in situations where people are disarmed. | ||
| So so what's what's that movie with Gerard Butler and The guys break into his house and like kill his family and it becomes like this crazy revenge rampage. | ||
| Yeah I don't know the name of it. | ||
| What was that movie called? | ||
| I forgot. | ||
| I don't he's great. | ||
| I'm not a big movie guy. | ||
| Oh So it's Gerard Butler, and what is it? | ||
| He's Leonidas from 300. | ||
| Let me see if I can look this up. | ||
| Did you watch it? | ||
| What happened in the movie? | ||
| I haven't seen the movie. | ||
| It's Law Abiding Citizen. | ||
| So he's a dad, he's got a wife and a kid, and then one day his doorbell rings, and he opens it, and then he immediately gets smacked in the head with a baseball bat and falls down. | ||
| They zip tie his hands, and then they murder his wife and his daughter. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Geez. | |
| I digress. | ||
| I'm not making a point about that. | ||
| I thought it was a great movie. | ||
| or, you know, get off on good behavior, he kidnaps and tortures them, and then publicly | ||
| releases the evidence, purposely want to go to prison, and then tries to get revenge on | ||
| the system. | ||
| I digress. | ||
| I'm not making a point about that. | ||
| I thought it was a great movie. | ||
| I wish, I think the ending was bad, but, you know, it is what it is. | ||
| But I was thinking about that, and I'm like, based on this character's willingness to, | ||
| like, get revenge, you know, he doesn't seem like, Gerard's Baller's character does not | ||
| seem like a shy man, to say the least. | ||
| But I was thinking about, even having a firearm in your home is no guarantee you'll be prepared for when the threat really comes. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Which is why being able to open carry is important. | ||
| Being able to have your weapon on you, and being comfortable, confident, and well-trained. | ||
| Because when you answer the door, someone might crack in with a baseball bat. | ||
| I mean, it's a movie, I know. | ||
| But, you know, I think about this, just working here and everything like that, and wondering about, what's the point of even having a fire extinguisher if it's too far away and a fire happens, you can't put it out? | ||
| Right, when chaos ensues, things happen fast, you gotta have a plan. | ||
| So we put fire extinguishers in, like, every room. | ||
| Like, most businesses will do this, they'll have a fire extinguisher in every room. | ||
| Okay, well, what happens if you see this, you know, I love... You see this commercial, there's a gun control commercial, where a guy angrily storms into an office with a musket, and then he fires once, and then he stops, and he starts loading it, he pours the powder in, and then he puts the ball, and they start stuffing it, and it's like, uh-huh, we get the point, and they were like, this is what the founding fathers expected, and I'm like, how do you subdue a threat when... | ||
| Kids can go into a school with any weapon they want and go on a rampage. | ||
| Like, how do you stop the threat? | ||
| You gotta go to the root. | ||
| That's my thing. | ||
| I don't know if you can... You can try and make less threats. | ||
| That's probably the best way to do it. | ||
| And I think the threats are pharmaceutical drugs, personally. | ||
| I think that a lot of inner-city crime comes from drugs or alcohol abuse. | ||
| And desperation, poverty that leads to those kind of things. | ||
| It's easy to get a 40. | ||
| It's easy to get an ounce of weed. | ||
| Now you're blaming people for smoking weed and drinking alcohol? | ||
| But when you look at a lot of mass shootings, these kids are whacked out. | ||
| These humans have like wide eyes. | ||
| They look like they're on something. | ||
| I would disagree with you saying if someone gets high or drunk, they go shoot up places, especially if they get high. | ||
| I wouldn't say that. | ||
| I don't think that's true, but I think the point that you're getting at is that a lot of mass shooting events were connected to individuals who were on SSRIs. | ||
| Notably, yeah. | ||
| Well, so, yes, but the point I'm saying is there's cultural issues. | ||
| In Chicago, a leading factor for these shootings is lovers' trysts. | ||
| Like, I went night crawling, and a bunch of these deaths we were tracking was a guy smack-talking some other guy on Twitter or Snapchat about some girl he was hooking up with. | ||
| People think it's gangs. | ||
| It's not. | ||
| So there is a culture issue. | ||
| We used to have duels! | ||
| We used to actually have this! | ||
| I guess now, what they're doing is nothing to do with honor, it's just like, the willingness to kill someone who slights you. | ||
| Back in the day, that at least gave you ten paces and then you turn, right? | ||
| What's happening in Chicago is a guy will post on Snapchat, like, you know, after your girlfriend, the other guy says, you're gonna get it, and then the guy drives to his house and shoots the other guy. | ||
| That's what's happening in Chicago. | ||
| So that's a cultural problem where someone's willing to kill someone else. | ||
| We just had this story where some young girl stabbed another girl to death just because, like, they... They were bragging about it on social media. | ||
| That's another part that's absolutely sickening. | ||
| They were young children. | ||
| It has nothing to do with guns. | ||
| I think guns are a scapegoat for the deep-seated cultural problems and the cultural decay affecting this country. | ||
| Well, humans have been killing each other forever. | ||
| But what I'm saying is if you go to Austin and everyone's open, caring, and you're not having this extremely high murder rate, then what's going on in New York City? | ||
| Something is broken and has nothing to do with guns. | ||
| Because there's no correlation between the murder and guns. | ||
| If you look at, you know, the city of Tehran, they are arming themselves illegally because the Mexican government tells them to stop arming themselves. | ||
| They told them to give up their weapons. | ||
| And their death rate in their town went to zero percent. | ||
| It was some of the highest death rate in all of Mexico went to zero when the citizens started to arm themselves and literally kicked out the government and the police and the cartels all along in one smooth move. | ||
| So we're having an individuals that are armed, that do have a lot of firearms, that are protected, that have their own militias, that do open carry throughout the streets, and you have zero murders? | ||
| When you had hundreds of murders beforehand and the highest death rate in all of Mexico in Michoacán, one of the deadliest states of all of Mexico? | ||
| So that's another tale that I think is worth noting, worth talking about here with this larger debate, especially in Mexico where guns are illegal, but homicides by firearms are extremely high. | ||
| Maybe, you know, that Thomas Jefferson quote, assuming it was Jefferson. | ||
| It is Jefferson. | ||
| Got it right. | ||
| Maybe the issue is actually people should reasonably respect, trust, and fear each other. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Reasonably. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| What I mean by that is, I should, you know, look, if you've got some dude who's like 6'6 and like 220, just sheer muscle or 250 or whatever, and I don't know what the right muscle mass to like height would be, but like some super ripped dude. | ||
| Jack Murphy. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, some super Jack Murphy dude. | |
| Super soldier. | ||
| I don't know if Jack Murphy's a super soldier. | ||
| He's just tall. | ||
| Just think of Jack Murphy while we're telling this story. | ||
| No, I'm talking about like a He-Man type. | ||
| And he walks around knowing that he's bigger and stronger than everyone and pushes them around. | ||
| Now you have a five foot tall woman, and he's laughing at her and mocking her, and then she's got on her waist, you know, she's got a revolver. | ||
| And so all of a sudden he's a bit more respectful. | ||
| It's people, like with being armed and being respectful, trustworthy, but also having something, you know, giving someone a reasonable fear of if they screw with you, they have something to fear. | ||
| This way, you might have, back in the day, some big, tall guy who knows you stronger than you can push you around. | ||
| Now I've got everybody who's armed, and they're gonna be like, I'm not worried about you shooting me, but I'm not gonna screw with you because I know you can. | ||
| That works if people are not desperate. | ||
| When people are civil. | ||
| But if people become desperate, they change. | ||
| They become wild animals. | ||
| Well, that's the point I was making about the fences around the perimeter of DC and the veil shattering of the media narrative. | ||
| And now this like huge gun ban and Joe Biden's plan for like, you know, taxes on firearms and magazines and all this stuff. | ||
| Because they're seeing now that people can see what's happening. | ||
| They can see the manipulation. | ||
| Their jobs, their lives were destroyed. | ||
| They're becoming desperate. | ||
| And we already saw what happened with the Killdozer. | ||
| So they're like, can we ban the guns from all of these people who are going to get really angry at us? | ||
| Yeah, I feel like we've got to just give over to the fusion. | ||
| Fusion power and molecular printing and exploration and evolution. | ||
| We've got to colonize Mars. | ||
| We're going to keep expanding and growing as a society, because if we try and stop that momentum, we're going to end up stressing out and killing each other, I feel like. | ||
| That's what we've been doing, and it doesn't look like it's going to change. | ||
| You see, they want more defense. | ||
| Well, historically, if you look at the largest killer of people, it's usually democide, which is death by government. | ||
| So historically saying what the biggest threat here it's usually typically government. | ||
| We need people to have confidence in the system and feel comfortable and respected, and that's not happening. | ||
| You talk about wanting to go to Mars and fusion energy and all that stuff, and I completely agree. | ||
| It's just really hard to do when you have a manipulative, sociopathic establishment that strips the value of all the working people and allocates it to really dumb things that people don't need. | ||
| Like copper, copper mining. | ||
| They're obsessed with copper wiring because of all that profit from the copper. | ||
| If we started using wireless power, we wouldn't need the copper Well, all those people would lose so much money. | ||
| Depending on who you ask. | ||
| I mean, a lot of conservatives are pointing out that a lot of high-profile investors make money off the trains transporting crude and the freight transporting crude. | ||
| So they don't want Keystone Pipeline. | ||
| They want to get rid of it so that they can keep charging contracts for the transportation of oil and things like that. | ||
| Oil, that's another one. | ||
| People love pumping their oil, the copper in the oil. | ||
| What else do they need? | ||
| There's a lot of issues with the system misappropriating things, but when you look at the amount... Let me make it very simple. | ||
| We have $10 million. | ||
| Should we spend it on, I don't know, covering the medical costs for as many U.S. | ||
| citizens as possible, which it wouldn't be that many relative to total population, or should we allocate it to Pakistani gender studies programs? | ||
| That's my point. | ||
| The system is so broken. | ||
| Yes, I'd love fusion. | ||
| Yes, I'd love to go to Mars. | ||
| I want to do it. | ||
| What do we have? | ||
| We rely on Elon Musk to get us there by 2026, he's saying. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| The private sector is doing it instead of the government. | ||
| Because the government's taking your money and giving it away to foreign countries. | ||
| And it's been hijacked. | ||
| Our infrastructure's crumbled. | ||
| It's been hijacked by the Federal Reserve and those dudes. | ||
| John Rockefeller and his buddies in the early 1900s. | ||
| They wanted to establish a system that couldn't screw them over again. | ||
| Rockefeller was pissed after he lost Standard Oil. | ||
| I'm sorry to interrupt. | ||
| Let me just interject one thing real quick. | ||
| I don't want people to feel like there's no hope. | ||
| The fact that they're talking about banning weapons and building security is irrelevant, just for one reason. | ||
| The GameStop stuff is working. | ||
| The media narrative has been totally blown out and we can see it now. | ||
| Which means, I'm really optimistic actually. | ||
| I think what we're seeing now is the old guard has lost their ability, the establishment has lost control, and the people are taking the power back. | ||
| And I wasn't so confident, you know, earlier in the year, but seeing Wall Street bets challenge these hedge funds and win, seeing how desperate the media has become, and then seeing That they've become so desperate they are revealing themselves. | ||
| I'm like, wow, they're done. | ||
| They're done. | ||
| They're not going to be able to carry out these lies anymore. | ||
| The Wall Street Bets thing is nonpartisan. | ||
| Everybody's mad at Wall Street for what they did and for what they're doing. | ||
| And the media's desperate attempts to shield them won't work because people can just open their phone and see they're lying. | ||
| It's kind of like, as the water boiled, the first bubble that popped up was Occupy Wall Street after the collapse in 2008. | ||
| Like, it really started to appear after 2007 with internet video, and we could read all the code, finally. | ||
| We could see the inner workings. | ||
| And then that was the first bubble. | ||
| It rised up and it popped, and they kind of glazed over. | ||
| But now another bubble is rising. | ||
| Identity politics, bro. | ||
| Yeah, they try to smooth it over. | ||
| They're like, no, it's not boiling. | ||
| See, there's no bubbles on the surface right now, so it's not boiling. | ||
| There's another bubble coming. | ||
| After 2008, the terms whiteness, systemic racism, intersectionality, white supremacy, discrimination, all of them skyrocketed right after Occupy Wall Street. | ||
| Because when they saw the class war coming, they said, make it an identity war. | ||
| And now it's like a Russian thing. | ||
| They're trying to make it a nationalist thing. | ||
| Meanwhile, wage, salaries, all of them, when you adjust them for inflation, dramatically going down. | ||
| People are getting screwed over more than ever. | ||
| Dude, I'm gonna say this, I was right. | ||
| I said the best thing for Democrats would be for Trump to win. | ||
| especially from last year when the stock markets and all the hedge funds and all | ||
| the big banksters were making money hand over fist while everyone was suffering. | ||
| Dude, I'm gonna say this, I was right. I said the best thing for Democrats would | ||
| be for Trump to win because it allows them to keep control of the populist | ||
| left. Once Trump is out and the left says, okay we hate Biden too. | ||
| What are they going to do? | ||
| Now you've got all the Trump supporters who hate Biden and the progressives left who hates Biden. | ||
| And now all of that populist energy is pointed at the establishment. | ||
| Step one, Wall Street bets, and you've got the Donald Trump forum, patriots.win, formerly the Donald, cheering this on. | ||
| And then you've got socialists and tankies, far right, far left, up, down, whatever you want to call it. | ||
| They're all laughing. | ||
| and cheering for it. | ||
| And I will say this is maybe very optimistic of the Biden administration's next four years, | ||
| the way this is going. | ||
| No, I mean, that's what I've been saying for years. | ||
| I've been saying it for months. | ||
| I've been saying it for weeks. | ||
| It's coming. | ||
| This is only the beginning. | ||
| Did you see the meme where the guys like day one of the of the lockdown have haven't, you | ||
| know, haven't really spoken, haven't gone out yet? | ||
| I wonder how this will go. | ||
| Day 90. | ||
| I've baked a new bread recipe. | ||
| It's going well. | ||
| Day 310. | ||
| Well, it seems like a man with Viking horns has taken, is now the president of the Senate. | ||
| Day 330. | ||
| Reddit's coordinated attack on Wall Street is going as planned. | ||
| You forgot that you forgot the three masks and the buttocks probes. | ||
| A part of that. | ||
| Three masks! | ||
| Which, by the way, by the way, Dr. Fauci came out today on national television, said, there's no data showing that two masks work. | ||
| After recommending yes yes yes he literally said that he literally was on national television and he was like there's no data that that talks about that that it makes any difference after saying last week that it's common sense for people to wear two masks again another major flip-flop and if we go into the COVID-19 thing what about all the National Guardsmen troops that are coming down with COVID we're also hearing that there's a massive cover-up with the National Guard troops that's covering up hundreds of them that are Put into very close quarters, sharing a small amount of restroom facilities, not being able to shower, not being able to sleep properly, getting a ton of COVID, and there's no mainstream media hysteria about a super COVID spreader event like there was with the alleged insurrection, which is again just another layer of hypocrisy here that needs to be unfurled so people understand through the bullcrap the reality that we live in. | ||
| So I'm just watching everything kind of fall apart. | ||
| And then I go out today to go, you know, we're gonna go grab, I had to run some errands, go to the post office, go grab some food, and everything was closed. | ||
| And, you know, I mentioned it earlier in the show, went to a Mexican restaurant, just closed, no signs in the door, and I was confused. | ||
| What's going on? | ||
| They're supposed to be open. | ||
| KFC was closed. | ||
| Some other local restaurants were closed. | ||
| And then I was just like, you know what? | ||
| That's it. | ||
| We're in a simulation and they're drawing down the computing power. | ||
| So now there's no people anywhere. | ||
| Like, cause people aren't in the streets anymore. | ||
| Cause they're inside because of COVID. | ||
| The restaurants are all closed. | ||
| The media narrative is breaking. | ||
| The system is falling apart. | ||
| And I'm like, is it, is it because the simulation is like running its course? | ||
| It's expired now. | ||
| And so like the, the, the, the simulation where they're just turning down the power and now there's nothing left to do. | ||
| And we're on the verge. | ||
| It's like, the end is now. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, no, no, no. | |
| We're getting into the final chapters. | ||
| We're getting, we're getting to the end boss when it gets really interesting, when it gets really difficult in my opinion. | ||
| But also, NBC News last week, they cited someone that said you need four masks. | ||
| Four masks on an NBC News article recommended by the media. | ||
| Dr. Fauci, common sense last week, this week. | ||
| Luke, if NBC is recommending four masks, then it's common sense that five masks would just be better. | ||
| No, no. | ||
| Six would be better than five. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah. | |
| You just got to do more masks. | ||
| More is always better. | ||
| Listen, you're wrong. | ||
| If six masks would be good, then it's common sense that seven masks would be better. | ||
| That's a good point. | ||
| Good conversation. | ||
| Thanks, guys. | ||
| And masks! | ||
| I got an idea. | ||
| Let's just make a video where we wear as many masks as possible. | ||
| See how far we can get. | ||
| We would pass out. | ||
| I'm still sick! | ||
| I can't breathe! | ||
| Well, you'll be passing it on because you'll be dead. | ||
| Just smother yourself with a pillow. | ||
| I'm looking for an article right now about a scientist coming out and saying it is almost, I think he might have even said that it's definitive that COVID was made in a laboratory. | ||
| Well, what's the source? | ||
| Okay, I gotta find this stupid article. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I read it earlier. | |
| I should've had it with me. | ||
| There's so much politics involved in a lot of these stories. | ||
| I'm just like, look man, it's been a year. | ||
| I don't care. | ||
| Let's just have a surgical reopening of businesses. | ||
| Get people their lives back. | ||
| Okay, 100%. | ||
| And the discussion of Origin at this point isn't gonna save, you know, Bob and Sally's Mom and Pop Shop. | ||
| And that's what I'm worried about. | ||
| So, what's done is done. | ||
| You know, the New York Mag ran that article. | ||
| I get it. | ||
| Oh, the New York Mag ran that? | ||
| New York manned the Lab Leak Hypothesis article. | ||
| So, you know, YouTube wants to ban people for bringing it up, and then Media Matters smears you if you do, and then New York Mag and Huffington Post are the ones who actually promoted it. | ||
| It was in May. | ||
| Washington Post ran the Lab Leak Hypothesis. | ||
| But now I'm just sitting here like, it's a distraction in my opinion. | ||
| Getting people to talk about the origin doesn't change the fact that it is Cuomo, it is these Democrat governors and many Republican governors who have chosen to destroy your life. | ||
| Like, maybe it would help us learn how to deal with it if we understood if it was human-made or if it was naturally formed. | ||
| Maybe? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| No, the lab leak hypothesis isn't that it's human-made. | ||
| Oh, what is it? | ||
| It's that they took the virus and they were trying to develop a vaccine for it and it leaked out of the lab. | ||
| So, actually, I could be wrong. | ||
| I think there is a portion that suggests they were manipulating it in an attempt to develop vaccines. | ||
| And that, like, it wasn't made in the sense that, the lab hypothesis— It wasn't made as a weapon, you're saying? | ||
| Right, right, right, right, right. | ||
| Trying to be very carefully, because, you know. | ||
| It could be either or. | ||
| We don't have any accurate, exact evidence. | ||
| We don't have any exact evidence, but we have a lot of theories, and we have a lot of hypothetical information. | ||
| I just don't think it's going to save small businesses. | ||
| It's worth people doing their own homework, their own research, and making up their own minds. | ||
| I think it's a distraction at this point. | ||
| I think we need to figure out why they're destroying people's lives and businesses, and that's the important story. | ||
| Yeah, and what made me think about it is that you're saying the National Guards are getting it, and it's been underreported that they're being stuffed into unsanitary conditions. | ||
| Well, of course, there's thousands of them that were literally put into parking lots, sleeping on top of each other. | ||
| There were thousands of people sharing one bathroom and having no facilities to shower and clean themselves. | ||
| What do you think that's going to, what do you think that's going to, you know, happening? | ||
| What's his name? | ||
| Tony Robbins really had an interesting take about this thing that we can't even mention here. | ||
| Yeah, he went off. | ||
| I tweeted about it. | ||
| We can't even say exactly what he said here. | ||
| Maybe in the bonus segment. | ||
| Yeah, I think in the bonus section. | ||
| Let's talk about the CFR. | ||
| I tweeted that video under under Luke Weir change eye-opening video We should play it later on in the special. | ||
| All right, so let's do this because we do have another segment I want to talk about Before we move on, we'll do a bonus segment after this show talking about masks, labs, COVID, all that stuff, and what's being reported, what's being said. | ||
| And this is our safe space at TimCast.com, where, believe it or not, even though it's members-only content, they'll still come after us. | ||
| No joke. | ||
| I could imagine, because you can be charged for things that you've done off the site. | ||
| YouTube will ban you for things you've said on other platforms. | ||
| Yeah, so you've got to be vigilant. | ||
| But we'll talk about it, and we'll go through these things, because as far as I'm concerned, I think it's only a matter of time before they nuke us off these platforms. | ||
|

|
Hey man, that's why we're getting... That's why we're doing... | |
| I mean, I'm not going to say anything that I don't already say on my YouTube channel, but we're just going to have to be careful how we say it with the official sources, with, of course, you know, the documents, with, of course, in a way where it's done honestly, so there's no excuse to ban anyone or to hit anyone or to strike anyone because, I mean, we literally dot our I's, cross our T's, we make sure that every... Like that matters. | ||
| All the information, it doesn't matter, but at the end of the day, it does factor in. | ||
| So there is a factor to this that makes the people in the middle who are watching this, who are not knowing what's going on, that's the people you got to play for. | ||
| You got to play for the people in the middle who haven't made up their mind yet. | ||
| And if you could show them without a doubt that you did your job correctly, you looked at everything, you provided accurate, good information to the people, and if they still hit you for that, you're going to gain a whole lot of support. | ||
| Let me just say one thing real quick, because I want to segue into this next segment, | ||
| and then we'll do Super Chats after it. | ||
| But if you go to TimCast.com, we actually have an entire bonus episode. | ||
| It's 45 minutes long, talking about Epstein and a bunch of those things that YouTube would absolutely | ||
| ban us for. | ||
| And so that's, if you're a member, you'll get that episode. | ||
| And then we're going to go ham. | ||
| We're going to talk some of this crazy stuff. | ||
| I want to make this world a better place. | ||
| This is what I'm doing, why I'm here. | ||
| And I know that people that run YouTube and Google know that free speech is one of the core tenets of what will help us democratize this planet. | ||
| And I also understand you're running a website and you need to moderate it and make sure that things don't spiral out of control. | ||
| Conspiracy theories can confuse people. | ||
| I believe that we are on the same path, and that we want to help people. | ||
| So, I think that talking about these things in a balanced way is incredibly important. | ||
| What makes you think YouTube believes in free speech? | ||
| Well, YouTube's just a company name. | ||
| I think that the people that work there, from my experience, because I was with YouTube before Google bought them, and Chad Hurley was the man, and the essence of YouTube, being able to make video and put yourself out there to speak your truth, is still prevalent. | ||
| And Google liked that and that's why they bought it. | ||
| And they want to subsidize it so that people can make a living doing that. | ||
| Jack Dorsey and Mark Zuckerberg don't care at all. | ||
| Well, I'm not worried about Twitter and Facebook right now. | ||
| YouTube doesn't either. | ||
| That's a corporate company name. | ||
| I mean, I don't know. | ||
| Susan Wojcicki doesn't care about free speech. | ||
| Let's talk to her about it. | ||
| They will ban you in two seconds. | ||
| They do not agree with you. | ||
| They believe that free speech and the spread of ideas results in some rabbit hole radicalization nonsense. | ||
| I just don't want to assume. | ||
| It's not an assumption. | ||
| I don't want to assume what they think. | ||
| Actions speak louder than words. | ||
| Yeah, but I wouldn't judge people's future based on what they did in the past. | ||
| What? | ||
| Like, just because they said some stupid stuff back in the day doesn't mean that they are going to be a certain way. | ||
| Because they literally banned hundreds of thousands of users, they purged 1% of the entire website. | ||
| Well, they're running a website. | ||
| They brag about it to a bunch of media outlets about how they were doing the right thing. | ||
| They don't agree with your right to speak your mind. | ||
| I understand. | ||
| I empathize with trying to moderate a billion-person website. | ||
| I get it, but why would they ban conservatives? | ||
| Just because a conservative has an opinion where he's like, I'm critical of immigration. | ||
| Banned. | ||
| You're both, both of you guys are right. | ||
| And I think the scenario here is as unfolding as you guys both see it. | ||
| But I think there is a small chance of what Ian is saying that there's a middle person that could say, well, they actually did everything by the book. | ||
| They did everything correctly. | ||
| They actually provided a service that's good and might not report it to the higher ups. | ||
| So that might be the opportunity and chance that you're right. | ||
| But you're right at the end of the day, if someone at the top wants to strike someone down, if you want to hit a dog, you're always going to find a stick. | ||
| That's what my dad always told me. | ||
| Uh, if you want to hit a dog, you're always going to find a stick. | ||
| What does that mean? | ||
| That means don't push your luck. | ||
| Don't just keep, you know, uh, bundling your head and, and thinking that, you know, you're the essence of what you're arguing. | ||
| I was walking through the woods trying to find a stick to throw for a dog to play fetch. | ||
| And it took me a little while to find the actual stick. | ||
| And I didn't want to hit him, I just wanted to play fetch. | ||
| Okay, whatever. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You proved his theory correct. | |
| Exactly. | ||
| So at the end of the day, that person that's on the top, that's making these bigger kind of generalized orders, he or she could only do so much, right? | ||
| So they can't just ban outright everyone all the time. | ||
| And we should never give them an excuse to give them any reason to do it. | ||
| We're gonna do one more segment, and then we'll do Super Chats, and this one will probably be like 10 or 15 minutes or so, but check out this story. | ||
| It's not the biggest story in the world, but it needs to be talked about. | ||
| SWAT team sweeps homeless out of Washington State Hotel that was taken over by activists. | ||
| This should be major news. | ||
| Check this out. | ||
| Two Olympia Police SWAT teams, two teams, went door-to-door at the Red Lion Hotel Sunday night, breaking up what police called a forcible occupation by homeless advocates. | ||
| Other officers escorted out employees who were sheltering in the basement for more than six hours feeling trapped, police said. | ||
| Seven people were detained, and more arrests are expected, CBS affiliate Cairo TV reports. | ||
| The incident was similar to one seen recently in Fife, Washington. | ||
| The activists, from a group called Only Housing Now, paid for 17 rooms for one night, moved in 33 homeless people, and tried to arrange for them to stay indefinitely without paying. | ||
| They demanded that Thurston County use funds from FEMA to pay for rooms. | ||
| We're just ready to stand our ground. | ||
| We don't mean any harm. | ||
| We actually want this hotel to get business. | ||
| That's the opposite of what's gonna happen, by the way. | ||
| Police said they started receiving calls at about 11 a.m. | ||
| from hotel employees who said people with batons, knives, hatchets, gas masks, helmets, and goggles had entered the lobby, apparently prepared for a confrontation. | ||
| Officers estimated there were about 45 members of the group inside and out. | ||
| Now, they just had batons, knives, hatchets, gas masks, helmets, and goggles, but they don't mean any harm. | ||
| I see you've done your due diligence. | ||
| their bread and making toast for the homeless. The batons are for playing | ||
| wiffle ball out in the backyard and the masks those are just to look cool. | ||
| Well everyone's got to wear a mask. It's COVID. They were being conscientious when they | ||
| decided to take over a hotel. | ||
| I see you've done your due diligence. | ||
| What? | ||
| You've obviously looked into this. | ||
| No, I just read the story. | ||
| So these people staged an armed occupation of a hotel? | ||
| A private hotel? | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Did you hear about this? | ||
| No, but I'm kind of glad the SWAT team came in and cleared them out. | ||
| Two SWAT teams raided a hotel because far-left activists with weapons were threatening hotel employees. | ||
| Because they're desperate for a place for people to live? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| In the winter? | ||
| Yeah, and you know, it does underscore very serious problems we have in our country. | ||
| You know, I was talking about Jon Stewart earlier. | ||
| He tweeted that, I guess in response to getting smacked around by these late-night hosts over his pro-Wall Street Bets comment, he said, so if I do good at this, do I become president? | ||
| And then I was like, yeah, become president. | ||
| What are you gonna do, run on your unrelenting support for 9-11 first responders? | ||
| Yeah, I'd totally vote for that. | ||
| No, really, I would totally vote for that. | ||
| Jon Stewart's awesome. | ||
| And the point I was making is that we will send $10 million to Pakistani gender studies programs. | ||
| For what reason, I have no idea. | ||
| We'll send billions of dollars in foreign aid while we have people sleeping on the streets. | ||
| Now, I'm not saying the solution is just giving these people homes or taking over a hotel. | ||
| I worked for a homeless shelter. | ||
| I've worked for nonprofits. | ||
| The problem is extremely complicated. | ||
| Many of these people are not well. | ||
| They can't work even if they want to because they're not well. | ||
| So what do we do? | ||
| We don't just throw them in the street. | ||
| Well, what happens is when our government takes our money, our tax dollars, when they print massive amounts of money, they strip our value away and their buddies rip us off. | ||
| They send that money overseas for God knows what, and they do nothing to solve the problem. | ||
| And you end up with a bunch of angry people who show up with batons, and that doesn't solve the problem either. | ||
| But hey, I can respect the anger, to be honest. | ||
| I'm sick of the money being wasted on nonsensical bullcrap. | ||
| I don't understand how the Flint crisis went on as long as it did. | ||
| And where did they get the money? | ||
| And every left advocacy group saying these pipes are getting lead in the kids mouths. | ||
| And it's like yeah, but gender studies in Pakistan, you know, they need money for those programs, right? | ||
| Yeah, and where do they get the money? I mean we're talking about income tax, sales tax, property tax, capital gains | ||
| tax, which a lot of people are going to be finding out about | ||
| very soon, especially if you're on Reddit. | ||
| Inheritance tax. | ||
| I mean, when you look at the rate that the American people are taxed, I mean, it's not as high as Europe, but when you add it all up, it's absolutely incredibly jaw-dropping to understand how much money the government takes, and then where do they spend the money? | ||
| As you said, you know, speedboats for Sri Lanka. | ||
| That was literally in the budget bill that was passed. | ||
| In fact, what's going on in Myanmar? | ||
| I hear there was a military revolution. | ||
| Well, that's a whole nother topic in itself. | ||
| But this is another thing. | ||
| Before we jump there, I want to finish on this topic here particularly because when you look at the homeless situation, it's about to get way, way worse. | ||
| Not only because of the larger financial tsunami coming our way from the ramifications of the 2020 lockdowns, which they're coming, which we still haven't felt the full ramifications of, it's going to hit people and it's going to hit people hard. | ||
| Economic flows usually take months. | ||
| Usually you even take sometimes years to fully affect people, but this is another thing we need to realize here. | ||
| A lot of the homelessness issues are surrounded mental health. | ||
| Mental health is plummeting in the United States at a dramatic rate. | ||
| When we see suicides, self-harm, depression going dramatically down, and that's going to cause another extreme situation. | ||
| And when you have extreme situations, people are going to see extreme solutions, just like those people in the hotels. | ||
| And I'm not, I don't want this to happen. | ||
| What we're seeing is the extraction of the system at the very last minute. | ||
| I think that the establishment elites, the politicians, the Wall Street bankers, the big CEOs and all the stuff, they've given up. | ||
| They're looking at everything and they're like, ship's going down. | ||
| What should we do? | ||
| Well, grab as much of the fine china and silverware as you can, get to an escape boat, and then get out before anyone realizes the ship's sinking. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's what it feels like. | |
| It feels like the homelessness crisis, the evictions that are looming, the fact that | ||
| people aren't getting cash right now, their businesses have been destroyed, the ship is | ||
| about to crash, they know it, and so they're just like, let's just take what we can. | ||
| Yeah, they're printing as much as they can, buying as much land as they can, investing in as much stock and stuff that's gonna go. | ||
| Shorting the stocks to make sure that they collapse. | ||
| Look, they printed all this money. | ||
| Most of it goes to these massive corporations. | ||
| They pay out their bonuses. | ||
| They buy land. | ||
| They buy hard assets. | ||
| Then the dollar tanks. | ||
| Then what? | ||
| They leave you holding the bag. | ||
| Homelessness is pretty nasty. | ||
| I agree with you. | ||
| I've also seen that some people with mental disabilities or whatever that are just, are not in a position that even if you give them a place to stay, a job and a bunch of money, they're going to fail and land right back on the street. | ||
| There are some people like that, but there are many people that are homeless and what they need is a shower and a bed. | ||
| They need a shower so that they can clean themselves so that they can become presentable to get the job. | ||
| Because if you stink, you're not going to get the job. | ||
| They need a shower, they need a clean shirt, they need a haircut, they need a shave, and it's really hard to do when you live nowhere. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| You have nowhere to go. | ||
| And so, that's why I do like these shelters. | ||
| I don't know if we'll ever find a solution because sometimes people become destitute. | ||
| Sometimes people, you know, they can't- I don't know. | ||
| Repurposing empty buildings for homeless people? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| Why is that not more common? | ||
| Who maintains the building? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Where does the money come from? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| They've tried that in the past. | ||
| What happens? | ||
| And the buildings fall apart and they become ghettos and then crime and disease. | ||
| It is a very real problem that we need to find the root of and get to the root of. | ||
| But the reality is sometimes people become homeless because they don't have the mental | ||
| health required. | ||
| And I don't mean they're crazy. | ||
| Some people are too depressed, and it's a serious issue. | ||
| Some people have schizophrenia. | ||
| Some people have, you know, psychotic disorders and need medication. | ||
| Some people can't afford the medication. | ||
| You get left with a large group of people that are just basically thrown into the gutter, and we have no real easy way to solve the problem. | ||
| It may not be a problem that can be solved, to be honest, but we can mitigate it properly. | ||
| I don't think occupying a hotel solves the problem. | ||
| In fact, it's probably gonna make it worse. | ||
| Not by force, definitely not by force. | ||
| Well, Ian, we already have that. | ||
| We already have Section 8 housing. | ||
| We already have projects. | ||
| So there's government buildings where people live in. | ||
| And they function. | ||
| Of course, you gotta fly through hoops to get into Section 8, whereas a homeless shelter you can just walk in and stay. | ||
| If you look at the, you know, poverty rates, it's usually a cycle that just keeps spinning itself into oblivion with the way that the system has established itself that essentially screws people over with either too much taxes, too much regulations, too much on them. | ||
| decentivize anyone from from any kind of economic mobility because there's barely any left. | ||
| You're talking about low-skill jobs, they're replaced by immigrants. You're talking about | ||
| high-skill jobs, they're replaced by visa programs for immigrants. And then companies like Elon Musk | ||
| get in trouble for not hiring enough immigrants. So where's the upward economic mobility? There | ||
| It's a scam. | ||
| It's all a big system where people within the banking system literally print zero onto a computer and that's how our financial system is run. | ||
| Meanwhile, everyone else, what do they do? | ||
| They get stuck in this poverty cycle that they never get out of because there's no way out of it. | ||
| I'm thinking two things. | ||
| Either UBI, we print a bunch of money, doesn't seem to work. | ||
| And then this Microsoft patent 060606 where we implant chips in these people and then just their biometrics can earn them cryptocurrency. | ||
| I have a conspiracy theory. | ||
| that they have somebody just for being. | ||
| What if Ian's implanting was anything having to do with it? | ||
| Might not have to implant it, you could do a tattoo, it could be something you eat, I don't know, | ||
| but you put something in them or on them so that it measures their bioactivity. | ||
| Maybe a watch so that you know, are they looking at the billboard? | ||
| If so, they earn cryptocurrency. | ||
| Just sit there and watch the billboard all day. | ||
| I have a conspiracy theory. | ||
| Ian's the elite. | ||
| He's a secret. | ||
| Someone else said I was an arm of the AI, that I'm the avatar of the AI. | ||
| You are? | ||
| I said that on Twitter, yeah. | ||
| Someone suggested that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Why is that? | |
| Because of these things I'm talking about, maybe? | ||
| Like you're encouraging? | ||
| Because that would lead us towards the Matrix, where people are in pods, like generating heat for the system, this giant machine that's like controlling everything. | ||
| But otherwise, we have homeless people all over the street. | ||
| Hitler's idea was kill them. | ||
| He would wrap up all these mentally, you know, ill people and just have them killed because they were ruining his society. | ||
| That I don't want to do. | ||
| The Matrix is terrifying, putting people in pods. | ||
| But what do you do? | ||
| They're on the street. | ||
| If they can't take care of themselves. | ||
| There's poop everywhere. | ||
| What do you do? | ||
| Because we're animals. | ||
| We're wild, barely tamed animals. | ||
| And we're not mentally prepared. | ||
| What do we do? | ||
| No idea. | ||
| Look, I've worked for a homeless shelter, a network. | ||
| There's no solution. | ||
| You know a lot of homeless people refuse to go to shelters and refuse to get jobs? | ||
| That's another problem. | ||
| What do you do? | ||
| Can't solve the problem. | ||
| They refuse. | ||
| You'll pull up and you'll say, we've got a clean shower, we've got a bed, we've got clothing, and you don't gotta do anything. | ||
| You can just live there. | ||
| They'll go, nah. | ||
| I don't want to work for your system. | ||
| No, there's no work involved. | ||
| Literally, I worked for a shelter that would offer people no questions asked, room and board at a house. | ||
| You get your own key, you come in the back door, you go right to your room, no one asks you any questions. | ||
| You have a house, you have a shower, you have clothes. | ||
| No. | ||
| They wouldn't take it. | ||
| But so in the meantime, they're out on the street just like polluting the environment, whatever, trapping on the ground, blocking traffic, terrifying people that are walking by. | ||
| So one place in Northern California wants to rendition. | ||
| That's probably the wrong word. | ||
| But they want to take them and then gain power of attorney over their finances. | ||
| And that's part of the justification is that you give these people even an opportunity for a free place to live and they refuse. | ||
| What do you do? | ||
| So now they're saying they have the right to just take these people for mental health reasons and lock them up. | ||
| See, that leads towards what Hitler looks like, what Hitler was doing. | ||
| Yep, absolute tyranny. | ||
| Absolute. | ||
| If somebody wants to sit on the sidewalk, you know, in most places, it's legal to do. | ||
| You can't block the sidewalk. | ||
| But they can't arrest you for being in public and sleeping. | ||
| They do sometimes. | ||
| In many places, they probably do. | ||
| In San Francisco, they'll get up every morning. | ||
| My friend Kelly Kettler is like a community organizer for the homeless in San Francisco. | ||
| And they'll come at like 4 a.m. | ||
| with fire hoses. | ||
| Just hose everybody on the sidewalk. | ||
| They have a poop department. | ||
| It's pretty bad. | ||
| I think San Francisco is a really good example of what happens when you have an oligopoly. | ||
| When you've got Zuckerbergs and Dorseys controlling the system, and they're ultra-wealthy elites who pretend to be good people. | ||
| Dorsey's probably the worst, because he's like this hippie guy who talks about all these great things, and then he's just a billionaire who funds critical race theory, and then people are crapping on the street and homeless and destitute. | ||
| But at least he can fund critical race theory, right? | ||
| Like, that's solving the problem? | ||
| That's solving the problem. | ||
| Homeless people come from all different backgrounds. | ||
| These people in Silicon Valley just want you to think they're doing the good thing. | ||
| So that way, when you come with your pitchfork, you ignore them because they're the good guys, right? | ||
| Meanwhile, they're actually making the problems worse. | ||
| Yup. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| I'm at a loss. | ||
| You know, what really frustrates me is that it's the grifters. | ||
| It's the grifters, man. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What do you mean? | |
| There are establishment individuals who pretend to be on the left who would waste their time pulling quotes from me out of context for the goal of making a partisan rage bait piece of content. | ||
| Sort of like Jimmy Kimmel. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| I'm talking about people on YouTube who are grifters, who take clips from this show out of context. | ||
| You're talking about specific people you're not naming? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
| And they cut and edit them so that they get you or Luke or me saying things, and then they use that so that people don't want to listen to what we have to say. | ||
| Because if they did, they'd be like, hey, we actually think a lot of the same things. | ||
| We agree on a lot of the same problems. | ||
| Don't worry too much about that stuff. | ||
| No, that is the problem. | ||
| We're trying to unify the people against the machine that is stripping our value away and destroying our lives. | ||
| And what happens is you get grifters, useful idiots for the establishment, who go on their shows, take clips out of context from shows like this, and then say, Tim Pool is far right. | ||
| When, like, literally, I'm pretty sure the entire bent of this show has been fairly left-wing. | ||
| Pro-social programs for the homeless. | ||
| Talking about Wall Street being bad. | ||
| You'd think it would be a pretty left-wing, positive, you know. | ||
| I did say I like those SWAT teams going in there. | ||
| Oh, you're far right now. | ||
| That was kind of far right, wasn't it? | ||
| We were pretty pro-gun. | ||
| I guess that's a problem. | ||
| The teeter-totter. | ||
| Someone cut me up and made me look really stupid. | ||
| I'm already pretty stupid, but like, holy cow, that's not fair! | ||
| Why'd you do that, man? | ||
| I need more memes, so cut me off. | ||
| Come on, man. | ||
| I'll be fair. | ||
| We did this thing on Jacobin where we looked at the magazine cover of Biden and Jesus and we were laughing at them. | ||
| But the greater context of the segment was about how the left in general, the establishment left, not the progressives, were overwhelmingly praising Biden with clouds breaking and sunlight beaming down on the inauguration. | ||
| And we were just using the Jacobin thing as a launching point. | ||
| But to be fair, we did not realize initially that it was meant to mock the exact same thing. | ||
| However, in that podcast, we did say, oh man, wait a minute, there's drones on the cover? | ||
| This is probably parody. | ||
| It's like satire. | ||
| And then I said, well, if it is, you know, we deserve it, right? | ||
| The problem was, You could have taken the episode and watched it, and then been like, guys, we completely agree with you. | ||
| You missed this, though. | ||
| We were agreeing with you the whole time. | ||
| And I would have been like, oh, look at that. | ||
| Instead, it was used by a bunch of leftists to mock and deride and insult this show, even though they agree with us. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Why? | ||
| They agree with us. | ||
| We agree with them. | ||
| It's easy clicks, probably. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| These people are destroying our opportunity to call out the establishment. | ||
| Well, I would say, in regards to that Jackman thing, I said it earlier. | ||
| I don't think text flies with sarcasm. | ||
| You don't see it when you see text. | ||
| And same with images. | ||
| You can't tell if that's sarcasm or not. | ||
| I mean, for me, it's like whatever. | ||
| It's OK. | ||
| You did it. | ||
| I'm just going to keep focusing on my mission and my job and my goals. | ||
| And I'm going to try to reach them. | ||
| I'm going to try to help as many people as I can. | ||
| And if they want to do that, let them do it. | ||
| But at the end of the day, no, it's not going to be laser focused. | ||
| It's not personal. | ||
| It's about right now we have on Reddit. | ||
| These people going after the machine, and it's working. | ||
| And we have a non-partisan issue where everyone kind of agrees. | ||
| We're seeing Donald Trump Jr. | ||
| and AOC agree on the same thing. | ||
| The issue is not personal. | ||
| I don't care if you call me a bunch of stupid names and mock my appearance like they do all- I don't care. | ||
| It comes to territory. | ||
| Don't expect to get into public, you know, spaces and think everyone's gonna love you. | ||
| It's just not reality. | ||
| The issue I'm worried about is not- it's not personal. | ||
| It's about how they do this to anybody who might actually agree with them. | ||
| That the tribe is more important than the cause. | ||
| They will mock Like you, Ian, probably agree with a lot of these left-wing personalities substantially more than anyone we've had on the show. | ||
| Like, especially criticisms of Donald Trump. | ||
| But they would cut segments above you to make you look like you're far right, instead of just being like, we like this guy. | ||
| Because it's more, for them, the tribe is more important than the cause. | ||
| So my concern is, we want to get people to rally around what we all agree on and build culture and community and support for the things we can accomplish. | ||
| But the grifters are the ones who are destroying that because they're more interested in clicks and rallying people to hate each other. | ||
| What we can do is not grift. | ||
| Well, we don't. | ||
| Yeah, I don't. | ||
| I really don't think I do. | ||
| I really do not. | ||
| I try not to take people out of context, man. | ||
| What was that kid who had the Native American dude in his face and he was smiling? | ||
| I took that. | ||
| I almost snapped on that. | ||
| And that was a wake-up call for me to take the mistake of taking people out of context. | ||
| We'll have anybody from left to right, up, down, whatever on this show. | ||
| We clearly have you and I. We have our arguments. | ||
| You'll be very critical of Trump. | ||
| I wanted to argue with you more today. | ||
| But it doesn't work for them. | ||
| So like the one segment they did where we were talking about Jacobin, they had to edit it to make Luke look stupid because they completely agreed with Luke at every point he was making about the Democrats. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So they made it seem like Luke- How do you even get to see the image? | |
| I was just generally talking about the larger principles of not worshiping someone who's in politics. | ||
| You shouldn't. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Don't. | |
| There can't be a podcast where there's actually kind of a moderate view on things. | ||
| So they have to edit it out of context. | ||
| But it's not personal, it's more about... Hey, on the upside, our show about Jacobin got, I don't know, half a million views, whereas the clips probably got a third of that, or, you know, this show is getting more views than those clips, so that's a good sign. | ||
| Well, you know, I just wish people would... Maybe, I think, I don't know. | ||
| The tribalism is a problem. | ||
| That being said, let's go to Super Chats. | ||
| We went a little long, but we'll read your Super Chats. | ||
| I'm gonna dip for a minute. | ||
| And then we're gonna have a bonus segment talking about Lab League Hypothesis, COVID, and where we're currently at. | ||
| And that'll be at TimCast.com, so make sure to become a member. | ||
| Hopefully it'll be up around 11 or so, but, you know, upload times. | ||
| Because this is a straight upload. | ||
| We just do a segment after the show. | ||
| Let's read some superchats. | ||
| If you haven't already, smash the like button, subscribe, notification bell. | ||
| Man, I ask for a lot, don't I? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Angryfish, thanks for the superchat. | ||
| We got Benjamin saying, Why? | ||

|
and their pocketbooks. Oof. | |
| Cargoosh says SRO, self-regulating organization. | ||
| It is an organization that is given power by the federal government to regulate a market. | ||
| Ah, okay. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh. | |
| So it is essentially a regulator. | ||
| All right. | ||
| I wanted to be careful, so we changed the initial title, but thank you guys. | ||
| Let's see. | ||
| Amunra Al Ghul says, follower forever? | ||
| This is my first super chat. | ||
| You don't understand the attack on silver. | ||
| It's not shares that WSS wants to kill. | ||
| It's physical silver because it's been shorted for 50 plus years. | ||
| Alex Jones has covered this. | ||
| I think we mentioned a little bit about that, but right. | ||
| They're telling everyone to buy the shares and everyone else saying, no, no, no, no. | ||
| Buy the actual physical silver. | ||
| Let's see, MD Noslu says, Hi, I'm Tim Poole, I'm rich, but I need you to send me more money to tell you what you already know. | ||
| Hi, I'm Tim Poole, I'm rich, and I run a business where if you like getting this content, you can watch for free for 99% of that content, sometimes with ads or with a sponsor read, and if you really like the content and would like to pay for a product that we produce, you can go to timcast.com and become a member. | ||
| It's a really weird thing to me about running a business, like, If I spent time making you a sandwich and then asked you to pay for it, most people would be okay with that. | ||
| But there's a weird thing where online, people are like, don't give money to this business for the products they produce because they already have money. | ||
| It's like, okay. | ||
| You don't have to. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Greatly appreciate it when you do. | ||
| I remember for a long time being scared to ask for donations and just being like, uh, and feeling really awkward about it. | ||
| But it's like, if you want to support us, people should know where to support us. | ||
| Well, listen, the memberships at TimCast.com come with a product. | ||
| We produce exclusive content. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So we've added more work to our day to produce something which creates two paths for us to maintain the business. | ||
| 99% is all free content. | ||
| It's all free. | ||
| And we just rely on ad sponsorships and Super Chats. | ||
| So it's basically like a pay-what-you-will model. | ||
| You don't have to Super Chat if you don't want to. | ||
| And then we have the membership thing where we produce content that is ad-free completely and uncensored and for those that are willing to buy that product. | ||
| Sometimes it's awkward to market your own products. | ||
| That's why people will hire marketing firms to do it for them. | ||
| And why, as an actor, you have an agent to go do it for you so you don't have to be the one that's like, hey, can I come in? | ||
| And it's similar with with TimCast.com. | ||
| I think people are like, Tim, why? | ||
| But like, dude, who else is going to do it right now? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Me? | |
| Go to TimCast.com and sign up. | ||
| Yeah, no, look, it's simple, man. | ||
| We could always hire a marketing firm to do some YouTube ads for us. | ||
| We've got millions of subscribers across the board. | ||
| Dude, we have the best subscribers. | ||
| And we've got like 0.001% of those who are members. | ||
| It's fine. | ||
| It's not a big deal. | ||
| A lot of members. | ||
| Have you disclosed the numbers of how many members we have? | ||
| It's growing fast. | ||
| It is. | ||
| Too fast. | ||
| Guys, you signed up so fast. | ||
| It was awesome. | ||
| Keep signing up. | ||
| Hey, I got my first donation, you guys, on Twitch. | ||
| I got twitch.tv slash Ian Crossler, and I started using Streamlabs, which is like an upgraded version of OBS. | ||
| It's a multi-stream, and I set up like a marketing thing where I'm selling t-shirts. | ||
| I'll talk more about it maybe after the show's over. | ||
| And I got a donation. | ||
| My first personal donation. | ||
| A couple very important superchats. | ||
| Crystal Mac says, please make a shirt with rabble, rabble, rabble on it. | ||
| I think that's a good idea. | ||
| I agree. | ||
| Nathan Snyder says, who wins, Godzilla or King Kong? | ||
| Very important super chat, by the way. | ||
| Luke? | ||
| I'm not a fan of either. | ||
| Godzilla. | ||
| He can, like, shoot lasers or whatever from his mouth. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He can? | |
| Yeah. | ||
| Can he? | ||
| Yeah, I think so. | ||
| I thought he could. | ||
| King Kong is... King Kong, dog. | ||
| Big monkey. | ||
| I think Godzilla's, like, three times the size of King Kong, isn't he? | ||
| I have no idea. | ||
| But they changed it for the new movie. | ||
| Now they're the same size in the new movie so that they could fight. | ||
| So who would you pick? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I gotta read the super chat. | ||
| YZ250moto says, Quote, I want to talk about vibrations of the universe. | ||
| Tim, quote, shut your mouth. | ||
| Hey, those were quotes today. | ||
| Not today. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All right. | |
| Cryptic says only buy physical silver. | ||
| Stay away from SLV as if it were. | ||
| I'm not going to finish that super chat, but not financial advice, by the way, just a random Internet comment. | ||
| I've got some physical silver, not really enough. | ||
| I've never been good at investing unless it's investing in myself. | ||
| So if I was good at like being part of the club and the 1%, I'd probably have way more money than I do. | ||
| But all I do is just run a business and then not properly invest. | ||
| It's the silver mines too. | ||
| That's a good investment. | ||
| I think. | ||
| I've heard. | ||
| I'm not a financial analyst. | ||
| Let's see. | ||
| We got one from CP. | ||
| It says, long time listener. | ||
| I love the show. | ||
| I'm going to join TimCast.com tonight. | ||
| Also, I would love to hear what George Carlin would have to say about everything going on right now. | ||
| I wish, man. | ||
| George Carlin was the man. | ||
| Dude, we got Rogan keeping it real. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| He's like Carlin's protege. | ||
| This one's funny. | ||
| Let's see. | ||
| We actually interviewed Carlin on the We Are Change channel before he passed away. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow! | |
| Is that on YouTube? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's awesome. | ||
| He said some very important things about 9-11. | ||
| Legend. | ||
| We got a super chat from Parik S. Tiwari. | ||
| The Big Short is the new Contagion. | ||
| Just saw it again yesterday. | ||
| Pretty good movie. | ||
| Except the Big Short is based on real life. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| The big short was 2008. | ||
| A bunch of people were basically like, yo, these mortgage-backed securities are stuffed with garbage. | ||
| They're scamming people. | ||
| So what do we do? | ||
| Short it. | ||
| Short it all. | ||
| And people were like, you're betting against the housing market? | ||
| Yup. | ||
| And they're like, okay, you're nuts. | ||
| And they were right. | ||
| What did they make? | ||
| Like $800 million? | ||
| Too much. | ||
| But this is, the reason these people are considered folk heroes is because they called out the scammers who are ripping people off and destroying everything. | ||
| And they made a profit doing it. | ||
| Good for them. | ||
| Let's see. | ||
| Ascendiant Media says, Dogecoin is real grassroots. | ||
| The idea is to leverage the power of a meme to mainstream crypto. | ||
| I get it. | ||
| That's the one good thing about Dogecoin, making big news and people seeing it as a viable option to make money and store their value. | ||
| To me, it's funny, but like, what's the value of Doge? | ||
| If you guys have some specifics about what it can do or anything other than the meme of the dog, I really want to get serious and tell me. | ||
| Because other than the goof, I'm not... | ||
| That's it. | ||
| That's why I don't care. | ||
| Go with Ethereum over Doge, right? | ||
| Ethereum's a far superior token. | ||
| To be honest, I would like to buy, me personally, I'd buy Doge just to have it and never trade it. | ||
| Yeah, that's what I did. | ||
| It's just going to sit in cold storage because it's funny. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And it might be worth $10 million. | ||
| It's kind of like buying a picture of gold. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| You know what I mean? | ||
| It's like putting it on your. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| It's something you find putting in your safe. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| All right. | ||
| Let's see. | ||
| We got Brent Sagan says, Tim, please call out my brother Grant for listening to you for years, but not becoming a member on your website. | ||
| Please. | ||
| Love of God. | ||
| He keeps asking me to show him the members only videos. | ||
| It's incredibly annoying. | ||
| Come on, man. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There you go. | |
| Come on, Grant. | ||
| OmegaHunter9 says, how do I get one of those cool pictures when I leave comments on TimCast.com? | ||
| You edit your profile? | ||
| That's it, I think? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know. | |
| We are upgrading the whole site, and to be honest, I had people who had done it on PayPal for a long time, and I didn't realize how big the influx would be if we started the website. | ||
| But my friends, let me tell you something. | ||
| I believe based on your memberships, the only thing stopping us from rivaling the Young Turks in terms of network and access and everything is time. | ||
| I'm fairly confident, you know, and I'm not saying this to be disrespectful to the Young Turks at all. | ||
| I'm using them as sort of like a marking of where independent channels can be on YouTube. | ||
| We've surpassed- I've- my channels have surpassed them in views a long time ago. | ||
| I did reduce the amount of content I produce, so it may have normalized. | ||
| But now with the memberships, it's- it's a very real possibility we get- we can start like a 24-hour network, hire on more personalities to do separate shows, and really expand this in ways I've never- I didn't totally expect. | ||
| I'll just put it this way. | ||
| I did not think that many people would sign up so quickly. | ||
| And so many did, I'm like, okay, now we need to rapidly expand what you get for that membership, and it's probably gonna be big. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's probably gonna be real big. | ||
| I've been thinking a lot about expansion the last couple months. | ||
| We're gonna need to start new shows, we're gonna need to do live streams, and we might even do, like, a 24-hour live thing. | ||
| That's gonna be interesting. | ||
| So what that would really be, though, you know, we're gonna start slow. | ||
| We're not just gonna start with 24 hours and have all these different hosts and everything. | ||
| But the amount of people who signed up, I just gotta say, it's substantial. | ||
| And now I'm like, okay, let's do this. | ||
| Let's do new channels, let's do more people. | ||
| We could do like a 24-hour stream in the skate park with like a VIP camera section where you can go up there, sit down and talk to the camera 24-7 streaming. | ||
| We could literally have like seven shows where it's like the 3 p.m. | ||
| to 4 p.m. | ||
| show is like the you know so-and-so in the in the park with guests and then we really are on the verge like of rivaling. | ||
| I've been streaming games I would love to integrate that into the network like a 2 p.m. | ||
| gaming stream for an hour. | ||
| There's a lot more that I can't necessarily say about the expansion, but it's good news for those who are investors in Subverse, now Scanner. | ||
| We are working on this project, and this will be really, really good news for everybody. | ||
| I'll just leave it at that, and we'll read some more Super Chats. | ||
| Uh, I will, I will lightly touch on it too. | ||
| There were some issues. | ||
| I don't know if we sent out the letter to the investors yet, but we fully plan like COVID really jammed up the scanner project in ways we could not foresee. | ||
| Getting physical space, hiring people was all completely shuttered because essentially couldn't operate in cities. | ||
| But we do have, we are working through the kinks, and we plan on doing a big launch soon. | ||
| And that's what I'm talking about. | ||
| We have a news department, a gaming department, a music department, and a tech department, and a media department. | ||
| Oh, it's gonna be big. | ||
| This is gonna be big. | ||
| You guys are awesome, by the way. | ||
| Ryan Ryan says, the latest stock TD Ameritrade shut down was HCMC in OTC with their fight against Philip Morris. | ||
| I'm sure because our Wall Street bets talked about it. | ||
| Interesting. | ||
| Carl Flynn says, I highly recommend the book Green Eyes and Black Rifles by Kyle Lamb for practical rifle shooting. | ||
| The man spent decades in SF and Delta and I train my Marines using the TTPs in the book. | ||
| Cool. | ||
| Very cool. | ||
| Very interesting. | ||
| We went out to the middle of West Virginia last weekend. | ||
| And shot a rimfire 50 BMG. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, no, no. | |
| Breach loading. | ||
| Not rimfire. | ||
| And whatever it was, it was powerful. | ||
| It was crazy. | ||
| It was smaller than I thought it was going to be. | ||
| Really? | ||
| Well, because... You didn't want to shoot it. | ||
| I didn't want to shoot it. | ||
| No, I didn't. | ||
| It's on your Instagram. | ||
| There's video of it. | ||
| It's intense. | ||
| Luke fired it, and I was standing slightly to the left, and the shockwave shut my phone off. | ||
| I was filming Luke, and then after he fires, the shockwave hits me, and then I look and my phone's off. | ||
| Whoa! | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So you're like pushed the off button? | ||
| I have no idea how it happened. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Yeah, it's a lot of force. | ||
| It's something else. | ||
| Dude, in the YouTube video, or on the Instagram video of Luke, you see him like crawling up on the gun. | ||
| He's like crawling through the mud, and then he just like... | ||
| Wicked shock. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's remarkably simple how the breach load works. | ||
| It's just you screw it off, you put it in, you screw it on, you pull the hammer back and click. | ||
| That simple. | ||
| It's no semi-auto Barrett, though. | ||
| Nope, it is not. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Nope. | |
| Let's see. | ||
| Gurg C says, Tim, you guys are killing me. | ||
| SpaceX, because of DOD satellite contracts, are not allowed to hire non-Americans. | ||
| Really? | ||
| That's weird. | ||
| We were just reading the article. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Eric Miller says, if Occupy is the Bronze Age, would Wall Street Bets be the Silver Age? | ||
| Then what's the Golden Age? | ||
| Or what's the, you know, what came after the Silver Age? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The Bronze Age was the... | |
| Scar Forget. | ||
| So there's actually a couple more comments. | ||
| C. Hennessy says, Musk explained in a Q&A that because it's rocketry, your employees have to get military clearance first before they can work. | ||
| This limits employees. | ||
| For sure. | ||
| Scar Forget says Elon Musk can't hire non-U.S. | ||
| citizens because the rockets are considered a national security issue. | ||
| Weapons of mass destruction. | ||
| Interesting. | ||
| Seize the memes of production, says Benny Ocean. | ||
| Now that is a meme. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| So Tesla hires foreigners, not SpaceX. | ||
|
unidentified
|
OK. | |
| Interesting. | ||
| Let's see. | ||
| AC130 says, I'm 26. | ||
| I'm a rapper from SC fighting the culture war from the inside. | ||
| Hip hop's almost entirely woke now. | ||
| Check out my next album, Self-Destruct Sequence 2 on March 1st. | ||
| Love y'all. | ||
| Hope to meet you someday. | ||
| I just want to also point out, the easiest way to get an ad read on this show is a super chat. | ||
| The issue is we can't read every single one. | ||
| That's what makes it hard. | ||
| But like, just shout out for this dude's album, Self-Destruct Sequence 2 on March 1st. | ||
| Thanks for the super chats. | ||
| See what 10 bucks can get ya. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| ThisGamingDragon says, first time super chat. | ||
| Tim is Jotaro from Jojo. | ||
| He can win at poker by not folding and raising until the other guy has a heart attack. | ||
| By the way, you guys should get salty cracker if you haven't already. | ||
| I don't know what that is. | ||
| Spazmodia says, the next actual squeeze is Nokia, by the way. | ||
| Well, I'm not super convinced. | ||
| I did buy Nokia because I like Nokia. | ||
| You ever see that? | ||
| You ever see the story about the guy who has a Nokia phone and a bullet goes through it but stops? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| And his life is saved by the phone? | ||
| No. | ||
| There was a meme for a long time that Nokia phones are indestructible. | ||
| It is still a meme. | ||
| And it is still a meme. | ||
| Yes, it is. | ||
| I saw it just recently. | ||
| So I saw the news and I was like, I actually, like tech has always been my jam. | ||
| The things I hold are typically like tech or some kind of, you know, manufacturing. | ||
| So I bought Nokia because I actually like Nokia. | ||
| I don't care for the, you know, I'm not, I'm not going to sell it. | ||
| I'm just going to sit on it forever just because I like it. | ||
| But more importantly, like I can't really buy any meaningful stock and say Google or Apple because it's too expensive. | ||
| So. | ||
| Yeah, I don't know. | ||
| Key was cheap, so I could afford it. | ||
| I have Tesla. | ||
| I like Tesla. | ||
| That's about as expensive as I got. | ||
| Yeah, I just think of it as what percentage of my net worth is going into it. | ||
| I don't really worry about how much the stock is. | ||
| You can buy like point two percent of a stock or whatever. | ||
| OK, Tesla's awesome, though. | ||
| It's an awesome company. | ||
| Mr. Behavior says, long time listener, first time caller. | ||
| I had to toss in a super chat after Luke's epic rant. | ||
| You went off, bro. | ||
| Respect. | ||
| I just became a member on timcast.com recently. | ||
| Wish you all luck with the site. | ||
| And we need it! | ||
| Look, so many people signed up that we are like bringing people on working overtime to try and fix it and make it bigger because it's taken off, man. | ||
| You guys rock. | ||
| Spork Witch says registration leads to confiscation, which leads to incarceration and extermination, literally every single time. | ||
| I like my guns like Democrats like voters, undocumented. | ||
| Matthew Walden says, HR 127 will bring what you fear. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Maybe. | |
| Yeah, I'm not a fan of this crazy stuff. | ||
| These crazy, you know, restrictions. | ||
| Sean Anderson says, I know I'm old when you mentioned Killdozer, and my first thought was the 1947 sci-fi made-for-television movie starring Clint Walker. | ||
| It's on YouTube, check it out for a chuckle. | ||
| That sounds fun. | ||
| Nimit says, you have lied to, locked up, and destroyed the businesses of, give or take, 100 million draft-age males for over a year, then you shove the fact the American dream is dead and every system is rigged in their faces. | ||
| The potter keg is lit. | ||
| Yup. | ||
| Hands down. | ||
| Skullgar Thane says Killdozer was a, probably intentional media, misnomer. | ||
| He never actually killed anyone except himself, once the bulldozer finally got stuck. | ||
| Yeah, man. | ||
| Was he shooting those guns? | ||
| Yes, he did. | ||
| JD1989 says, Hi Tim, Luke, Lydia, and Ian. | ||
| House Resolution 127 is outright communist gun confiscation proposed by Representative Jackson Lee. | ||
| This bill would disenfranchise all low-income firearm owners and be unilaterally illegal. | ||
| Well, yeah, yeah. | ||
| The taxes on a gun, I believe, has to be unconstitutional because it would mean only rich people can have guns. | ||
| But they do it already with, like, full-auto, you know, NFA stuff. | ||
| Machine guns. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Timothy Peterson says, how far could HR 127 potentially go on a .50 caliber ban? | ||
| .50 cal is the most popular black powder caliber. | ||
| I wouldn't put it past them. | ||
| Ricky Bobby says, so Lotter with Crowder started again today. | ||
| Huge news. | ||
| They have filed a lawsuit against Facebook for removing their election stream. | ||
| The biggest independent stream removed from the biggest platform for no reason. | ||
| Hope they win. | ||
| I do too. | ||
| Go Crowder. | ||
| They got Bill on it. | ||
| Isaac Hillstrom says, Dogecoin, we're going back to the moon. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Marcus Carter says, 562,000 elected officials exist in the US. | ||
| If 6 million people can buy GME, GameStock, why can't at least 562,000 Americans have the support to run for office? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah, Crowder said he might run for office. | ||
| Really? | ||
| I think he tweeted that out today. | ||
| Didn't Mike Cernovich tweet out that he's running to be governor of California? | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Didn't he tweet that out? | ||
| Am I wrong? | ||
| Interesting. | ||
| Eric Heffelfinger says, I've made six Wall Street posts on Facebook. | ||
| Dozen of picture, video, and news articles each time. | ||
| One post had 57 pics, 7 videos, some being yours, 23 news articles, dozens of people who I haven't spoken to in years reached out. | ||
| See, I like the Wall Street thing, man. | ||
| It's bringing us together, left and right. | ||
| That's why the grifters get me down. | ||
| They're trying to stop that unity, nah! | ||
| People realize that they're full of crap. | ||
| I hope. | ||
| Most people. | ||
| Well, now it's an opportunity to show everyone. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Daniel Maxwell says if there is not a peaceful resolution to the culture split soon, we will | ||
| end up with a bloody civil war that is a guerrilla warfare scenario and what we end up with afterwards | ||
| will not be a constitutional republic. | ||
| It is not going to be good. | ||
| You do not want gorilla warfare. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| You just want to buy an I Am Gorilla t-shirt. | ||
| An I Am A Gorilla t-shirt. | ||
| We got more t-shirts coming. | ||
| I think we're gonna do one of Ian meditating but floating so your hair is wavy. | ||
| Oh I like that. | ||
| And then it says free the code. | ||
| Yes! | ||
|
unidentified
|
I love it so much. | |
| Chakra colors behind me. | ||
| And then maybe we'll hide somewhere in the art and the Fed. | ||
| Oh yeah. | ||
| We should do an end the Fed line as well. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| Repeal the Federal Reserve Act. | ||
| That's the way I phrase it. | ||
| End the Fed. | ||
| And we'll have a little Ron Paul in the background giving a thumbs up. | ||
| Free the code, dude. | ||
| We need to free the code so we can build a free software system on Mars. | ||
| The free the code is more like your actual catchphrase. | ||
| That's what I really care about. | ||
| I was brainwashed to say free the code by Bill, though. | ||
| Free the code. | ||
| I really do want to. | ||
| All right, here we go. | ||
| James King says, AMC diamond hands and then six rocket emojis. | ||
| Kristen F says, this is how messed up the GameStop stock thing is. | ||
| I use a stock simulator app where I invest fake money into stocks and watch the market in real time. | ||
| Last week, they took 8K of fake money out of my account, left me with $32. | ||
| Wait, what? | ||
| That's crazy. | ||
| Fake money? | ||
| Why? | ||
| Arios says, I finally got a bit of extra cash again, so I'll share a bit with the pool party. | ||
| I'm going to rewind because I'm a bit late, but if you guys read this, I just want to say that it's always nice to listen at night. | ||
| Also, wah! | ||
| Is that supposed to be like Waluigi or something? | ||
| I saw so many people were sad that we didn't do a show on Friday. | ||
| I love you guys. | ||
| We were wiped out, man. | ||
| It gave me a chance to make the kombucha. | ||
| I'll be, I'll be, I'll be honest with everybody. | ||
| It was kind of frantic because we had too many signups and it overloaded and crashed the system. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I was actually working support that night that Eliza was on. | ||
| We had so many emails that had to go out that our site couldn't handle it. | ||
| The next day was just like, my brain was on like a fire. | ||
| So if you both had headaches, if you haven't got an email yet, just stay, stay cool. | ||
| They're all coming out. | ||
| And if for some reason, by the end of the week, you still haven't gotten an email, just send another email. | ||
| The easiest way to explain it is an episode of Simpsons where Mr. Burns goes to the doctor, and the doctor says that he has literally every disease known to man. | ||
| And so he says, look at these oversized novelty germs. | ||
| Now, one of them can easily fit through the door, but when they all try going through at the same time, they get stuck. | ||
| That's basically what happened. | ||
| And so then once the door got jammed, every new sign-up was jammed, and then the automated system broke, and then it required manual intervention. | ||
| So, uh... Success problem. | ||
| One by one. | ||
| One by one. | ||
| We're all throwing in. | ||
| One by one. | ||
| But we love it. | ||
| So sign up at TimCast.com. | ||
| It feels good. | ||
| Every time I would fix one, I'd be like, yes, that's a human that is getting something. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| All right, here we go. | ||
| Grant Thompson says, you've got to see the Urban Dictionary's definition for TDS right now. | ||
| Very Orwellian, their ability to rewrite definitions and control a layman's perception of reality. | ||
| Yes, the Urban Dictionary got woke. | ||
| And so the Trump derangement syndrome, which is a reference to people who are irrationally angry at Trump, turned into people who irrationally support Trump. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Yeah, something like that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| I think Jeremy Hambly made that point when he was on the show, the quartering, that TDS can go in both directions. | ||
| An irrational hate or an irrational love of Trump is both kind of a derangement. | ||
| Grant Thompson says, oh, I just read that one. | ||
| Jonathan Galterini says, regarding gun rights, you should look up Arizona. | ||
| I'm from AZ and was amazed how many restrictions there are for guns in Texas. | ||
| AZ's safer than Texas. | ||
| And they're blue, isn't that crazy? | ||
| Paul Barnes says, also I've been doing construction on Fort McCoy in Wisconsin, and they've been shipping APCs out all Friday and today. | ||
| Not sure what for. | ||

|
Huh. | |
| Where? | ||
| From where? | ||
| This is Fort McCoy in Wisconsin. | ||
| Interesting. | ||
| Adam Lynn says, Max started Crash JP Morgan by Silver in 2010, causing them to change their position. | ||
| Heard him give Tim and Luke a shout out today during an interview saying 2021 is the year of the millennial. | ||
| Very cool. | ||
| Max is a good friend. | ||
| We love Max and Stacy. | ||
| They're awesome. | ||
| We've been trying to get them on. | ||
| Were you there in France? | ||
| We were hanging out. | ||
| Oh yeah, of course. | ||
| That was fun. | ||
| Stacy started following me on Twitter. | ||
| Max and Stacey are on the show, guys! | ||
| We were covering the climate protests, I think, and then we all had a crazy night on the town, which was really fun. | ||
|
unidentified
|
When Max and Stacey come on, I want another chair, because I want to do all of us. | |
| You guys, if you're big into crypto, you should check out their podcast. | ||
| It's the Orange Pill podcast with Max and Stacey. | ||
| We're just going to have you sit in the middle, and your head's going to pop up, like, did you do DMT? | ||
| Have you smoked DMT? | ||
| I wonder if Max has smoked DMT. | ||
| I don't know, but I feel like he'd have a lot of really good opinions on it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You know, even though he's a finance guy. | ||
| It was funny seeing that video he posted of him in 1987. | ||
| Like young Max Keiser talking about stocks and ragging on yuppies. | ||
| I loved it. | ||
| All right, let's see. | ||
| Let's see. | ||
| Let's try and get some more of these. | ||
| Quinton Cooling says, what do y'all think of Tom McDonald's new song and getting to the top of the chart? | ||
| I listened to it today. | ||
| I was surprised. | ||
| I was like, those are some really strong lyrics that were, for a lot of people, the nail on the head. | ||
| He's charting? | ||
| He's great. | ||
| Like actual billboard charts or what? | ||
| I mean, I know he's big. | ||
| I don't think he has a, does he even have a label or a manager? | ||
| I don't think he has any. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| So I have extreme respect for Tom McDonald because he's doing all of this himself. | ||
| Like him and his woman are making this happen, which is truly amazing. | ||
| And he's very talented. | ||
| So I'll have to listen to that song. | ||
| And he got like 3 million views in just like a... | ||
| And the music video I mean, I mean it was and the lyrics were profound I think what I love one of the things I love about Tom is his gratitude He just it's got the essence of gratitude to his fans. | ||
| I kind of dismissed him for a while I was like, yeah, whatever. | ||
| He's just another like white rapper. | ||
| I'm like, whatever I But then I started listening I listened to the song today I was like, whoa, like this is powerful stuff so he's got a bunch of his songs are like I Yeah, it's like talking cultural politics. | ||
| White boy? | ||
| He pays attention to what's going on, so shout out to him for doing that. | ||
| And being smart and having something conscious rather than the garbage nonsense that's promoted by the mainstream media and the main music industry that wants you to be sucking down cough syrup and some drugs. | ||
| So thank you for doing something different. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| And we want to get him on the show. | ||
| Yes, we will. | ||
| It may at some point because we have talked to him a bit and he's a cool dude. | ||
| So, you know, we'll just... Early in the year, bad weather, you know, COVID, everybody's got, you know, things that are kind of creating hurdles for, you know, so there's a lot of people we've actually had who will want to come on the show that would be really, really awesome. | ||
| And then they're like, but maybe we should wait after winter. | ||
| We had the snowstorm. | ||
| We also have travel restrictions. | ||
| So people are like... | ||
| You know, things, things will kick up. | ||
| There are some guests. | ||
| I don't, I don't like naming the people who we have coming on, but there's a lot of people we're trying to get, which will be amazing conversations. | ||
| Like, I wish I could say I can't though, but someone recently, we, we, I believe the PR company for one very, very high profile dude who was canceled, reached out to us. | ||
| And I'm hoping this is a legit request. | ||
| Cause I would love to have this dude on, but I'm not going to say who. | ||
| I contacted Nassim Harriman about the Schwarzschild proton unification theory. | ||
| I was at Burning Man with him. | ||
| He's great. | ||
| If you can get in touch with him. | ||
| We were at the same camp together. | ||
| I did a video with him as well. | ||
| Very interesting guy. | ||
| He basically seems to have solved Einstein's field equation showing a unified field theory. | ||
| I talked about that. | ||
| Nassim Harriman, We Are Change. | ||
| You'll see me in a very interesting outfit at Burning Man interviewing him. | ||
| We were at the same camp. | ||
| We were sleeping together in the same, you know, group. | ||
| Yeah, he spent his years working out of his van because the scientific community wouldn't take his work seriously because it basically upended a lot of like accepted physics, but what he seems to have unified the universe into one energy form. | ||
| So we had one super chat. | ||
| It was for $5 and said, here's for Ian's contribution to Ian's rehabilitation. | ||
| Thank you, sir. | ||
| And Chris Bell says, Ian, the things you say rip out pieces of my soul. | ||
| Tim, how do you deal with it? | ||
| Lydia, love your face. | ||
| Hit your button more so we can see that smile. | ||
| Thanks, guy. | ||
| I think I know how Tim deals with it. | ||
| He puts me on his show. | ||
| Yeah, because I think for the most part, me and Ian agree, you know, but when we have our disagreements, we voice those disagreements. | ||
| We're like really kind of logical and straight edge, but I play like a really wild character on this show intentionally because I think it's good to bring that crazy to the table. | ||
| I didn't realize you were playing a character, Ian. | ||
| Well, I'm just saying some of the most Out there stuff because who else is going to say it? | ||
| People need to hear this because they need to question themselves. | ||
| We're not what we think we are. | ||
| It's like a hyper exacerbated version of me. | ||
| A hyper inflated version of myself. | ||
| Like I just sit in silence. | ||
| If you really want to see the real me, watch my Twitch stream. | ||
| Yep, there you go. | ||
| Yeah, I remember Tim and Ian used to have these conversations at the table. | ||
| I was usually sitting like right between them. | ||
| Earlier today we talked about the ideal gas law and about writing a new law. | ||
| There has to be at least one screaming match in the house a day. | ||
| We were disagreeing earlier when Ian was talking about ideal gas law and we were talking about laws versus theories. | ||
| And scientific laws and you were saying they don't change. | ||
| I was saying they do change. | ||
| Theories change. | ||
| Laws are considered to be... I think scientific laws are there until we figure out how to improve or alter them. | ||
| But neither of us really knew, so we kind of just yelled a little bit and then moved on. | ||
| I think theories are the ones that's like, we don't know for sure, but we've tested it, and this is what we believe to be correct. | ||
| And laws are like, that's true. | ||
| NASM, if you're listening, settle this. | ||
| We'll just bring in a scientist that can explain it all to us. | ||
| Let's bring the CMUN. | ||
| Yeah, you guys know him. | ||

Reach out. | |
| Mike Chilson says, one of my favorite quotes. | ||
| The taxpayers are sending congressmen on expensive trips abroad. | ||
| It might be worth it, except they keep coming back. | ||
| That's a good one. | ||

|
Alright, let's see. | |
| Hank Bow Horseman says, Hey Tim, as an aspiring studying musician, I'm a big fan of the idea of creating culture, but I'm afraid of the potential social ramifications of sharing music, especially with my uni. | ||
| Any advice? | ||
| Don't be afraid, just do it. | ||
| What are you gonna do? | ||
| Don't have any regrets in life. | ||
| When you're going to look back at just your life, you're going to notice how fast it goes and how you should have taken a lot of those shots that you just denied yourself. | ||
| Don't do that. | ||
| I take a lot of ridiculous shots. | ||
| We're just talking about Tom McDonald. | ||
| Yes, you do. | ||
| What do you mean there, Lydia? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Excuse me. | |
| I'm quite respectful of it, but it's a lie. | ||
| Tom McDonald makes videos where he expresses his opinions, his songs, and he's huge. | ||
| People love this stuff, so don't be afraid. | ||
| There will be blowback, but it will be worth it. | ||
| Oh dude, there's a ton of people who hate my guts. | ||
| And probably for dumb reasons, probably for fake reasons, and many probably for legitimate reasons. | ||
| Jobs will be lost, friends will be lost, but in the long run it is totally worth it. | ||
| Oh yeah. | ||
| Ryan says, you rule. | ||
| That is all. | ||
| Appreciate it. | ||
| DJ Madero says, all the great things are simple and many can be expressed in a single word. | ||
| Freedom, justice, honor, mercy, hope. | ||
| Winston Churchill. | ||
| Great speech. | ||
| Excellent. | ||
| Edsworld says, what is quantum parse syntax grammar and why is it important? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Turk Longwell says, I got in on membership on day one. | ||

|
Ha ha. | |
| You got in. | ||
| You got past that crowd. | ||
| They rushed to the door. | ||
| Jerome Morrow says, is your chicken tenders giveaway only for new Timcast members? | ||
| I'm already a member. | ||
| We're not giving anybody tenders. | ||
| What have you done, Ian? | ||
| Alright, we'll read a couple more of these because then we've got to go record this special segment. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Will Billy the Hillbilly says, hey Ian, wireless power doesn't work due to power density in the air. | ||
| Thousands of volts and hundreds of amps will not only mess with electronics, wireless connections, but it's also very unhealthy and will basically cook you. | ||
| You could send it through the earth, I think. | ||
| That's what Tesla was experimenting with. | ||
| Or through the ocean. | ||
| So there are ways to ground the electricity and then have it come out. | ||
| I think. | ||

|
Interesting. | |
| Ooh, ooh. | ||
| Jonathan McLee says, would love to see Charlie LaDuff, the author of S-Show, The Country's Collapsing, and the ratings are great on your show. | ||
| We know Charlie, don't we, Luke? | ||
| Charlie LaDuff from Detroit? | ||
| Is that Charlie? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Doesn't ring a... Come on, we know who Charlie is. | |
| I'll write this name down and see if I can look him up. | ||
|
unidentified
|
LaDuff. | |
| I'm more of a face person. | ||
| Yeah, Charlie! | ||
| Yeah, of course, we know Charlie. | ||
| Can you see him? | ||
| Yeah, you know Charlie, he did a bunch of really viral videos for local Detroit news. | ||
| Well, I'll refresh your memory. | ||
| I can't remember. | ||
| Yeah, I'll look him up. | ||
| He had a whole bunch of really viral videos where he was doing these amazing segments for Detroit local news. | ||
| Okay, I think I know what you're talking about. | ||
| And he exposed a lot of the government mismanagement and stuff like that. | ||
| Stuff like that. | ||
| Yeah, I think I know exactly. | ||
| In really funny ways. | ||
| Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| Like he shut up someone's house with like a bathrobe or something. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's been a while. | |
| Someone that was cheating the system exposed them and the government that was doing something else. | ||
| Okay, now we know. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| It's been a while though. | ||
| It's been a while. | ||
| AJ says, you think Ian's an average non-intellectual guy whose reactions rep the common man's ideas. | ||
| Not so. | ||
| He's high IQ. | ||
| His uber-creative weird takes totally derail otherwise great discussion. | ||
| Oh, discussions get rid of him. | ||
| Oh, I didn't realize. | ||
| I thought that was actually a positive comment. | ||
| I think it was an imaginary comment. | ||
| That's the square root of a negative number. | ||
| Another old-school great guy to have on would be Jimmy Justice. | ||
| Who's that? | ||
| Amazing guy that was bringing street justice to parking meter maids in New York City. | ||
| Oh, the guy playing the points? | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| No, he did more than that. | ||
| It was incredible. | ||

| Mandatory quarantines at undisclosed government facilities upon arrival in Canadian airports. | ||

| Yeah, check please. | ||
