you you | |
at his latest press event I suppose we heard one of the most powerful | ||
powerful statements from the president about building that | ||
Strangely, it wasn't Donald Trump, it was Joe Biden, who said he wants to restart construction on the wall because there's been an ongoing crisis at the border that's been exacerbated by Joe Biden himself. | ||
Talk about amazing hypocrisy and an amazing I told you so like what do you say to all these people who voted for Biden where it's like oh you know all that stuff Trump was doing turns out it was working and then you voted for Biden to do something else and within a few months he realized what Trump was doing was working now you got the B team because Donald Trump Compared to Joe Biden, was it? | ||
I hate to say it, but Donald Trump was the A team. | ||
Now you get the B team. | ||
So Joe Biden's only recourse, I suppose, is to do exactly what Trump was doing. | ||
It's amazing. | ||
He's actually going back on all of their promises. | ||
He said, we're not going to build that wall. | ||
We're going to, you know, we're going to stop building it. | ||
Beto O'Rourke actually said, tear the wall down. | ||
All the activists were like, shut down these child migrant facilities. | ||
We had AOC saying, these are concentration camps. | ||
And it's not my opinion. | ||
It's expert analysis. | ||
Where's she at now? | ||
She's tweeting that concentration camps are actually just influx facilities with controversial records. | ||
Boy, that's one way to put it. | ||
Amazing! | ||
We were only a few months in and Joe Biden has already realized that Trump was right. | ||
How incredible is that? | ||
So we're going to talk about this, among other things. | ||
There's another really funny story. | ||
Apparently, Jordan Peterson is like the basis for the red skull in the new Captain America comic. | ||
Which, for some reason, these woke leftists love defending Nazis. | ||
It's the weirdest thing. | ||
Of course, they'll call a conservative a Nazi, but when it comes to literal Nazis, like the Red Skull, they're like, let's model them after Jordan Peterson, who is a mainstream and popular personality among regular people. | ||
Sure, they might try and claim that Jordan Peterson is fringe or whatever, but if you actually look at Jordan Peterson and the coverage he's gotten, New York Times bestseller, new book coming out, he's appeared on talk shows, not super political, not super controversial. | ||
That's what they're claiming is the bad guy? | ||
That's creepy stuff. | ||
We'll talk about it. | ||
Joining us today is Josie, the red-headed libertarian. | ||
Hi, thank you for having me. | ||
Yeah, do you want to just give a quick little introduction? | ||
My name is Josie and I am on Twitter at the trhl. | ||
And you're a libertarian. | ||
I'm I'm a Ron Paul libertarian. | ||
I'm a real libertarian. | ||
Not any of that LP crap. | ||
Oh, those are fighting words. | ||
The Libertarian Party was yelling at me. | ||
The Libertarian Party of Texas was yelling at me. | ||
Remember when Joe Jorgensen tweeted, it's not enough to not be racist, we must actively be anti-racist? | ||
You know, I got blamed for that. | ||
You got blamed for that? | ||
I got blamed for that. | ||
Why did you get blamed for that? | ||
I have nothing to do with that abomination, but someone thought that I tweeted that for some reason. | ||
I have no idea who tweeted that. | ||
I don't know, I don't care who tweeted that. | ||
Joe Jorgensen tweeted it. | ||
No, it was people who work for her. | ||
Right, right, right. | ||
Oh, they thought you were... So they thought I worked for her and I tweeted and it was a rumor that I tweeted that. | ||
And I'm like, that's bizarre, but yeah. | ||
I just loved the idea of the Libertarian Party telling people what they must do. | ||
unidentified
|
That's kind of the opposite of what you're supposed to be preaching. | |
Remember when that guy got on stage and took his clothes off? | ||
The Libertarian Party is great. | ||
The Libertarian Party is just devolved. | ||
Were they at one point awesome, like regular Libertarians? | ||
Yeah, they used to be normal. | ||
Now they're not normal. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Now there was like, apparently a couple years ago, there was a debate over whether or not an individual should be allowed to sell drugs to kids. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh, yeah. | |
Austin Peterson. | ||
Shout out. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Was that his argument? | ||
No, that was him. | ||
He said no. | ||
unidentified
|
And everybody booed him! | |
They booed him when he said no? | ||
They booed him when he said no because he wouldn't sell the drugs to the kids. | ||
There's a line, man. | ||
There's things that the Libertarian Party nowadays skews to the point where I don't even like to associate with it. | ||
I started this as a Ron Paul Libertarian, a small L, understanding property rights, self-ownership, personal responsibility, accountability, and the non-aggression principle. | ||
And it's devolved into this, like, Marxist, like, all the talking points. | ||
How weird is that, right? | ||
It's like the worst part of wokeness, but with, like, pro-corporate authority? | ||
It's the opposite! | ||
So if you think about... | ||
For instance, like, we want to abolish the borders. | ||
That's right out of the Communist Manifesto. | ||
That's chapter two. | ||
You can go ahead and get it from the library or your Marxist neighbor and read it. | ||
Chapter two, it talks about abolishing nations, abolishing borders, taking that stuff down. | ||
And it's like, you know, there should be a path to immigration, an easy path to immigration. | ||
You know, figuring out where they can survive and not be tossed randomly into a gutter is one of the big problems. | ||
let me in." They go, all right, let's do fingerprints. Oh, you're not, you're not a terrible person. | ||
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
Go in. You can't get benefits for three years. | ||
Placement. | ||
Yes. | ||
You know, figuring out where they can survive and not be tossed randomly into a gutter is | ||
one of the big problems. | ||
Yes. | ||
So all the open borders people, it's like, send them to the ghetto. | ||
Like, no, no, no. | ||
We want to fix that. | ||
So we'll rag on the Libertarian Party. | ||
We got Ian. | ||
Ian's wearing a brown shirt. | ||
I'm hanging out with this awesome periodic table of the elements with a piece of each element. | ||
Except for the radioactive ones. | ||
Yeah, because that would be bad for you. | ||
But there's literally a piece of each element in this acrylic. | ||
Does every single radioactive element emit gamma waves? | ||
I don't know. | ||
Cause it's the alpha and beta particles. | ||
I guess, I guess they emit gamma radiation. | ||
That's, you know, I don't know enough about it. | ||
You're the chemist though. | ||
We also got Lydia pressing buttons. | ||
I am pushing buttons in the corner. | ||
I'm Sarah Petulitz and Josie's hair makes my hair look completely brown, not red at all. | ||
So I'm enjoying this red haired company. | ||

Let's talk about Biden building that wall. | ||
We have the story from the Daily Mail. | ||
This is amazing. | ||
Biden now wants to restart construction on Trump's border wall to plug the gaps with | ||
kids camps way over capacity and a new surge of migrants coming from Guatemala. | ||
This is amazing. | ||
Joe Biden actually shut down the construction as soon as he gets in because people like | ||
Joe Biden and the people who voted for him. | ||
Look, I'm trying to be nice. | ||
I'll be respectful. | ||
I understand a lot of people just didn't know what they were voting for when they voted for Biden. | ||
They hear something. | ||
There's no logical basis to it. | ||
It's just an emotional reaction. | ||
The wall is racist. | ||
Donald Trump is the Cheeto dictator. | ||
So the wall must be stopped. | ||
So Biden gets in and goes, yeah, come on, yo, stop the wall. | ||
You gotta, you gotta, you know, get the straight razor and the barrel and then bang it on the fence and make it come down. | ||
And then he stops construction. | ||
And then all of a sudden, we're dealing with this massive border crisis. | ||
Why? | ||
Because Biden basically signaled to all of these individuals in other countries, open for business. | ||
What did Biden say? | ||
More tournament deportations for 100 days? | ||
He lost that fight, but he still said it. | ||
So these people are thinking, Under Trump, you know, they're going to throw you out. | ||
At least you can try and get some media pity under Joe Biden. | ||
So here they come. | ||
Now Joe Biden has no choice but to reopen the child detention centers. | ||
He's putting children under bridges in McAllen, Texas, sleeping in dirt. | ||
And now he's going to rebuild the wall. | ||
I gotta say, I wonder if the Trump supporters are going to be like, all right, we'll take the win on that one. | ||
You know, we were worried we weren't going to get the wall and now Trump's going to build the wall. | ||
So, uh, how very, um, that's strong leadership from Joe Biden, right? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
You know, he actually said that he inherited this crisis. | ||
It was exactly like this. | ||
We just didn't hear about it because the media never would have smeared Donald Trump. | ||
That's right. | ||
unidentified
|
That's right. | |
No, never. | ||
Is it because of like a global recession that we're getting this influx of migrants or have we always? | ||
Well, so there is, there are seasonal waves. | ||
That's true. | ||
And Joe Biden tried claiming, oh, there's no crisis. | ||
You know, it's a seasonal wave. | ||
Come on, man. | ||
And what's actually happening, because ABC, I think ABC and NBC journalists interviewed some illegal immigrants who are like, oh, it's because Joe Biden says he's going to be nice and he's giving us an opportunity to come. | ||
So you actually had, I can't remember who it was. | ||
I think it might've been CNN, where they were like, you can't deny this. | ||
You actually have, oh, no, no, no, I'm sorry. | ||
It was Jonathan Karl. | ||
I think he was talking to Brian Stelter. | ||
Brian Stelter of CNN was like, these are right-wing talking points. | ||
And this guy from ABC is like, no, it isn't. | ||
Our reporter went down and the illegal immigrant said it's because of Biden. | ||
Well, there you go. | ||
You vote for a guy who screws it up. | ||
And now the best he can offer is trying to do what Trump was already doing. | ||
It is true that the words of the president have resounding impact. | ||
Like when Trump was like, get him out of here, hit that guy or something at a rally. | ||
And then you started to see this wave of people punching people. | ||
He said something like, you know, I would hit him and, you know, I'll pay the legal fees or something like that. | ||
Someone decked a guy at one of his rallies. | ||
So it does. | ||
And if Biden mentioned that even in passing, I can imagine it would definitely be affecting people. | ||
So there's, you know, there's one of the big problems with Trump during his presidency, but he did stop that. | ||
That was early in his campaigns. | ||
And then he was like, no, no, we can't do that. | ||
We'll let the police handle it. | ||
Cause he realized like, nah, I can't tell people to do something like that or, or, or support in any way. | ||
But with Donald. | ||
unidentified
|
Sorry. | |
I think some of that was going from being a celebrity, you know, celebrity businessman, like, well, like guy, friends of everybody. | ||
The first time he was ever booed was going down that escalator. | ||
Never been booed in his life. | ||
Um, so I think a lot of that was how he would have behaved as, you know, a personality and then being like, Oh my gosh, I'm, I'm running for president. | ||
I can't, I can't say things like that anymore. | ||
However, because of things like that, imagine what these other countries must've been thinking when it's like, imagine you're, you know, like Iran or something. | ||
And they're like, well, we need you to go and have this meeting with Donald Trump. | ||
And the guy goes, What am I gonna say to that guy? | ||
That guy's crazy! | ||
No matter what I say, he's gonna be yelling at me and it's like, I'm not getting anything done. | ||
And so all of these countries are probably on edge every time they would meet with Trump or have to meet with the U.S. | ||
because they're like, Trump is just gonna demand and there's nothing you can do to convince the guy. | ||
Now they got Sleepy Joe. | ||
Now they're all laughing and high-fiving each other and they're like, yes! | ||
So imagine how everyone is feeling. | ||
You've got a lot of people who want to come to this country. | ||
And I said this before, I'll say it again, because I love saying it. | ||
I have infinitely more respect for illegal immigrants who are willing to crawl through, you know, walk through vast swaths of desert, risking their lives, going on a thousand mile journey, because they think America is that awesome. | ||
As opposed to these woke leftists who are like, America is racist and awful. | ||
Our health care is awful. | ||
It's like, OK, tell that to the people who are dying to come here, who are like surging at the border. | ||
So I digress. | ||
These people want to come. | ||
They're regular people. | ||
They clearly see the rhetoric of Donald Trump was very extreme. | ||
We're going to send them back. | ||
You got to stay. | ||
We're going to build a wall. | ||
And they're like, you could risk this huge journey and they're going to they're going to kick you out into Mexico with the remain in Mexico policy. | ||
Now with Joe Biden, it's like doors open. | ||
Let's roll. | ||
That's right. | ||
How much more of the wall do they have to build? | ||
Well, Biden wants to plug up some gaps. | ||
So like, how complete is it? | ||
Are you guys familiar with it? | ||
Uh, it's about, I think last, the last number I read was like 700 miles, I think was it? | ||
Yes, no, that's correct. | ||
unidentified
|
700. | |
Yeah. | ||
And what, what they tried doing was smearing Trump by saying like, uh, Trump proposed a big, beautiful wall, 30 foot concrete from sea to shining sea. | ||
And they were like, you're not going to build 2000 whatever miles of wall. | ||
Then what happens is, when Trump gets in and he finally gets the funding, he starts reinforcing select areas where there's serious problems. | ||
Trafficking, smuggling, etc. | ||
And then they started claiming, Trump's only replacing existing wall, which was the craziest lie. | ||
Because the wall, the wall, I'm doing air quotes, was like two pieces, like two 2x4s in an X shape with another 2x4 on top. | ||
Did you guys ever see the wall with your own eyes? | ||
I've just seen pictures of both. | ||
I went to Tijuana, South. | ||
They're right by South California. | ||
And man, it was junk. | ||
It was like wooden posts going out into the water, like 40 feet. | ||
You could just swim out around it and go. | ||
Yeah, I've been to various points on the border. | ||
In the past few years, I was in Mexicali and Calexico, I think is the city's name. | ||
And it's really amazing how it's actually, in some ways, rather porous, legally. | ||
Like, people just walk back and forth every single day like normal. | ||
So like, some people in Mexico are like, they walk up and they're like, here's my ID. | ||
It's like, what are you coming for? | ||
I'm going shopping. | ||
Have a nice day, sir. | ||
And they walk into the US, they go shopping, and they go home. | ||
Where are you going? | ||
I'm going home. | ||
Have a nice day, sir. | ||
But yeah, you could see the wall, and we went a little further out. | ||
And you could see the, uh, I can't remember exactly what it, it's like fencing and you see the trucks driving along it. | ||
Well, so what happened was Donald Trump wanted a big concrete wall and I guess CBP and ICE, they were like, CBP said, you don't want a wall because we need to see on the other side of it. | ||
So they're like, what if we do like fencing and then a wall on top and they're like, we need to see on the other side of it. | ||
They made windows, like you can walk through the wall. | ||
Yeah, yeah, just open like a regular old window with an apple pie on it. | ||
Sliding glass doors. | ||
Sliding glass doors. | ||
Locks on them. | ||
Curtains. | ||
So the media claims Trump didn't build the wall. | ||
Mexico obviously didn't pay for it. | ||
Trump tried claiming the trade deal was gonna, you know, pay for it or whatever. | ||
But he built select secure fencing, triple layered in some areas. | ||
So you've got one big fence, a smaller fence, and a smaller fence, razor wire, and CBP vehicles driving in between the two. | ||
Particularly secure. | ||
Well, they were doing construction on it, Joe Biden stopped it, and then boom, border crisis. | ||
I heard that most migrants come in via airplane. | ||
I don't think it's most, but I think it's a lot. | ||
They like fly into Chicago. | ||
Well, they fly in on tourist visas and then stay. | ||
Yeah, they just never leave. | ||
Yeah, there are a bunch of other issues too that are legit. | ||
Like, um, what do they call it? | ||
Uh, like, what is it called? | ||
Pregnancy tourism or something like that? | ||
Oh, yeah. | ||
Birth tourism. | ||
Birth tourism. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Oh. | ||
Where they fly and have a baby. | ||
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
So a woman will be, you know, on the verge of giving birth. | ||
She'll fly here. | ||
You get three to six months, depending on what your visa is. | ||
And they just wait, have the kid, the kid's a citizen. | ||
It could be, what do you guys think should be like the criteria of immigrating to the United States? | ||
Hunger Games if you got to compete and only the person who survives gets the citizenship. | ||
I'll watch obviously I'll start it off. | ||
I think I think they should speak English 100 you need that's my number one Really? | ||
unidentified
|
Why? | |
Cuz otherwise I just want people to assimilate into the culture That is a good point assimilation is a good point. | ||
I wonder maybe if they should commit to learning to speak English like yeah, you know like something Something on those lines, as opposed to already knowing the English. | ||
I might not have the means to learn it. | ||
I understand the point, but I kind of feel like maybe Americans should learn more languages, too. | ||
That's racist. | ||
What, saying that Americans should learn more languages? | ||
Is it cultural appropriation? | ||
Cultural appropriation, yes. | ||
We speak English. | ||
If we learn Spanish, it's cultural appropriation. | ||
I read that somewhere, so it must be true. | ||
Remember those ladies who were making tacos in Portland or whatever, and they got shut down? | ||
And the story was like, they would look through the windows at Mexican restaurants to like, see how things were done and that was stealing. | ||
And I'm like, dude, most of these restaurants, there's like, they have the abuelita making the corn tortillas in front of everybody to show you it's like real fresh. | ||
And it's just, it's like corn flour and water, you know what I mean? | ||
And you just like, and you put on the thing. | ||
It's just authentic when you got the nice little, you know, grandma, she's making it for you. | ||
I went to one place, it was awesome. | ||
Right when you walk in, there's like the grill and there was a little, you know, Mexican grandmother and she's smiling and waving and she's making tortillas and I was like, this is gonna be the best taco I've ever had. | ||
But apparently I'm not supposed to like that. | ||
You have these restaurants and they're like, we want people to enjoy this stuff. | ||
Anyway, going back to the main point. | ||
Dude, look, we have Mexican restaurants all over the US. | ||
It becomes a part of our culture. | ||
We're the great American melting pot. | ||
I do get your point about speaking English because if people can't talk to each other, it's hard for them to work together. | ||
So I saw that when I went to Sweden, when you had the Somali migrants and refugees from 20 years ago, When they weren't properly integrated, they created their sort of own community that didn't work properly with the Swedish, you know, like, community. | ||
And so it created poverty. | ||
It created poverty. | ||
It bred crime. | ||
And then the Swedes were super racist and they were like, oh, those people are bad. | ||
And it's like, dude. | ||
You took people from a war-torn country who were desperate. | ||
Good for you. | ||
I appreciate that. | ||
That's a good thing to do. | ||
But you then just dropped them in a city center somewhere and left. | ||
And these people had no idea how to speak Swedish or get jobs. | ||
What were they supposed to do? | ||
You can't just do that. | ||
Saving the people was a great idea, but it's like half-assed. | ||
And that's what's happening now with the left and the open borders people. | ||
They're like, let them come in! | ||
It's like, okay, after they come in and there's 90 miles of desert, what do we do next? | ||
I don't know. When CBP picks up this kid and he's sick and dies, they blame CBP for it. | ||
Should they just let the kid die in the desert? They give you these half answers. They're emotional. | ||
There was like, there was one group of people that put food and water randomly out in the desert | ||
and they got arrested for it, for littering. | ||
And it was this big thing on the left where they're like, oh, how awful are police? | ||
It's so insane. | ||
They were trying to save migrants. | ||
I'm like, dude, you can't go into the desert and just put food and water on the ground and think you're feeding someone. | ||
Animals will come or you're just quite literally putting garbage out that no one's going to eat. | ||
It's the craziest thing. | ||
Emotional responses. | ||
And now here we are, months out, and at least Joe Biden's not tweeting mean things. | ||
Refugees, I find a little different. | ||
I would be okay letting refugees in regardless of the language they speak, because that's a different situation. | ||
But immigration, that's where I start to draw the line. | ||
Economic migration. | ||
I hear you're saying, I guess, I guess the issue is like in the place where I grew up, everyone spoke Polish. | ||
Some people didn't even speak English. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
So there, there are issues of integration. | ||
If a large portion of an area can't communicate with like the gas station attendant. | ||
What about Ilhan's district? | ||
Dearborn? | ||
No, no, no, she's not in Dearborn, that's Michigan. | ||
Sorry, I totally crossed that. | ||
But I'm thinking about Dearborn, I think. | ||
Dearborn, Michigan? | ||
It's pretty much like you feel like you're going through another country when you go through Dearborn. | ||
But they speak English enough, and so it works. | ||
I've been to Dearborn a couple times, and a lot of the businesses, it's written in Arabic. | ||
So they've assimilated. | ||
I've never seen it. | ||
We were talking about the Swedish community, and I was wondering if America had one. | ||
I would say it was very similar, in that you go there, or at least when I went there, there are areas where everything's in Arabic. | ||
And you go to a restaurant, but they can speak English, and I had a great time, to be completely honest. | ||
I understand maybe there are some concerns about maybe gangs or extremism or whatever. | ||
When I went there, Went to a car wash. | ||
Everybody was really nice. | ||
Went out to eat. | ||
We went and got Mediterranean food. | ||
It was amazing. | ||
It was like legit. | ||
Made by people who knew how to make, you know, falafel and hummus and all that good stuff. | ||
So, I don't know. | ||
It is an issue of how can one community work with another community or the greater community if they don't understand each other. | ||
But I'm not entirely convinced that That can't be navigated somehow, like it's the worst thing in the world, you know what I mean? | ||
I don't think people need to... I'll put it this way. | ||
I don't think they need to be fluent in English. | ||
They need to be able to communicate. | ||
We need to be able to communicate with each other to a certain degree. | ||
So, I don't know how you solve for that. | ||
I do agree with you on the refugee point, though. | ||
Economic migrants who are coming here for work and for jobs, Should be able to interact and work with other people and that requires probably a basic level of English. | ||
Because we are a predominantly English speaking country, you know? | ||
Yeah. | ||
Yeah, it's good to be able to work, but I also think there's a huge part of life that is not work. | ||
I basically live for my work. | ||
I really enjoy working and I like being able to talk to all you guys. | ||
But at the same time, if you want to be able to actually be a part of the culture that you're in, you have to be able to speak well enough in the language that whatever country that you're in that you have to be able to like go out and meet in groups. | ||
You have to be able to meet other people who already live there. | ||
I do think that fluency is a huge benefit to people who come to the US. | ||
I wonder if this multiculturalism is something that's been in America for a long time, and I wonder if it's one of the reasons we see things in the United States we don't see in other parts of the world in the same levels. | ||
So, actually, that probably makes no sense. | ||
I was gonna say, like, when you look at certain police brutality instances, it's interesting if you go to a country like Sweden or Norway, which are overwhelmingly white, And they say, oh, but we don't have these things. | ||
And I'm like, perhaps race plays a role and there's some kind of racism that can go in any direction. | ||
That doesn't exist in a homogenous community where they all agree, speak the same language, and do the same thing. | ||
It's not necessarily about race. | ||
It's about, I guess, familiarity. | ||
But I guess my point was that in the United States, like, there are segregated neighborhoods all over Chicago. | ||
It's all totally segregated, no joke. | ||
You cross from Archer on the south side, you go past Cicero, and the billboards are now in Spanish. | ||
You go the other direction, and then you got a bunch of signs in Polish. | ||
So how are these people going to, you know, interact or work with each other when they're just like very distinct and separate culturally, morally, and linguistically? | ||
I feel like that could lead to an inability for people to come together and work together. | ||
For sure. | ||
Familiarity is key. | ||
Like if this, this isn't a race war, if anything, it's like a class war or familiar. | ||
Like you, you, you tend to be afraid of what you don't understand the unknown, you know, and language plays directly into that. | ||
And a bias towards the in-group. | ||
So if you're an English-speaking American, you have a bias towards people who are like you. | ||
And those within, you know, the Polish community in Chicago aren't going to be able to branch out and work. | ||
Their jobs are in their community. | ||
That's why their community, there's no way to go up. | ||
They're kind of stuck in that circle. | ||
There's no opportunities outside because you don't speak the language. | ||
But the older generation. | ||
So what happens is the kids all speak English. | ||
Like Luke, for instance, you know, he was on the show for a little bit and then he just abandoned us. | ||
Yeah, he left. | ||
Because he's a cold, callous individual. | ||
Mexico. | ||
He went to Florida, I guess. But he's born in Poland. He moves here. He grows up speaking English. | ||
He talked about how it was not so easy for him because when he came here he didn't. | ||
But then he did and now he's an extremely, in my opinion, extremely important American | ||
defending American values. So that's why I'm not super concerned necessarily with | ||
people coming here who don't speak the language. | ||
If they can function and they can work and they can, you know, be a part of the community, their kids will grow up and it's really just about if we're doing a good, if we're doing right by our kids and teaching them, you know, important values. | ||
However, I guess that's not something we're doing entirely at this point. | ||
A lot of people don't want to have kids. | ||
They're talking about, oh, I can't raise a kid in this environment. | ||
And it's like, if you don't have kids, then who's going to have kids? | ||
It's going to be like idiocracy, you know? | ||
Well, a lot of it too, they're, they're excusing themselves to be able to extend their own childhood. | ||
Yeah. | ||
You know, a lot of it is not that they don't want kids, maybe in a different life they'd want kids, but right now they're very, it's, it's a me generation. | ||
It's very, it's the most selfish generation. | ||
unidentified
|
Ever. | |
I think the idea of childhood is a modern creation. | ||
Mm-hmm. | ||
So it's interesting when, I can't remember what it was when Republicans were like, | ||
kids need jobs. | ||
And then the Democrats were like, you want to go back to the 1900s putting kids in factories? | ||
And it's like, no, but kids should do work with the family. | ||
Right. | ||
But more than that, I think kids should spend more time seeing what their parents do for a living, understanding the real world, and we should be treating kids like adults. | ||
The problem is, as generation to generation has come and gone, It seems like, it used to be, you had a kid, the kid had to grow up fast, there was war, there was death, there was famine, stop crying, you're 13, you're a man now. | ||
And that's like pretty brutal, and we're like, nah, we wanna be kinda chill. | ||
But we keep pampering the next generation. | ||
Now it's like kids are, I say kids, now you got people who are 26 years old, and they're like just getting out of college, and they've never had a job in their lives. | ||
It's like, dude, you're 26. | ||
Amazing. | ||
I learned how to cook when I was 14. | ||
I didn't even realize this. | ||
I just realized this a couple days ago because I'm a bit of a chef, a cook. | ||
I love cooking. | ||
I love the smell, making this. | ||
And I used to work at a chicken shack when I was 14. | ||
I think that directly contributed to my ability to understand food. | ||
I didn't even think of that. | ||
You gotta learn, teach. | ||
You learn young, too. | ||
Dude, I went to South America, the kids would be boat captains at the age of nine. | ||
You'd go down to the Amazon and they'd be like full-on running the show, nine-year-olds. | ||
Imagine being like 15 from one of these countries, you come to the United States, and you've been a boat captain running your own business, and then you come here and you see all these 15-year-olds sitting around picking their nose, and you're like, wow. | ||
How are these people going to, like, you know what it is, man? | ||
It is, it is Capital City, Hunger Games, man. | ||
Affluenza. | ||
It is. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Americans in general are suffering from affluenza as a whole. | ||
A judge adjudicated that affluenza was a thing. | ||
unidentified
|
Right, right. | |
But listen, that's like the specific case. | ||
It's kind of like I roll my eyes at that. | ||
That ruling is ridiculous. | ||
But think about Americans in general. | ||
15 year old, 16 year old, 17, 18 year olds. | ||
Who don't have jobs? | ||
And never did. | ||
I had a job at 14, and before that I was volunteer at the YMCA. | ||
What was your job at 14? | ||
Uh, fast food. | ||
But how are you, how are you legally allowed to do that? | ||
Because you could work at 14. | ||
I'm, I'm older than I look. | ||
Like a worker's permit? | ||
Yeah. | ||
When did they change the law to be that you had to be 16? | ||
Shortly after I started working. | ||
Oh, even with a worker's permit? | ||
I was able to... I don't know, actually. | ||
I didn't get a worker's permit. | ||
I worked my family business when I was really young, so... Yeah, and a lot of, like, kids, like, I mean, I come from a family, a lot of them live up in rural Vermont, and they all own farms, and those kids have been, you know, Collecting eggs from the chickens since they were five, you know, you got a first job. | ||
Yeah, you got a You got to have a sort of responsibility a personal responsibility to become a you know Well-rounded person when you don't you end up with a bunch of woke me first you lack you end up lacking responsibility and accountability And that's kind of way that America's in chaos right now. | ||
No one takes any Responsibility for what they do. | ||
That's why it's crazy to me when when people come over off gas and they'll be like they'll look at my work schedule and be like you're crazy and I'm like I think you're crazy, man. | ||
Like, no offense to some of these people, but like, I used to work every weekend as well. | ||
Now weekend is partially administrative, with some time off to relax, go out to eat or whatever. | ||
But it's like, I work, you know, 8 to 4, and then I work 7 to 11 every day. | ||
And in between, all I'm doing is like, eating or exercising. | ||
It's like, all of my time is consumed. | ||
And I'm like, what would I do if I wasn't working? | ||
Like, what do you do for fun? | ||
I don't know. | ||
What do you mean you don't know? | ||
Do you, like, just sit there? | ||
Meditation. | ||
No, no. | ||
You blank out. | ||
You blank your mind. | ||
It's awesome. | ||
That's weird. | ||
You get younger. | ||
That's weird to me. | ||
Regeneration. | ||
I don't know about that. | ||
I think you have a hobby and you do your hobby and, I mean, you raise your family if you have a family. | ||
Yeah, I mean, I know there's a lot of people without purpose and so that's kind of a cancer right now in America too because they think they find a purpose is something you just want to commit your life to. | ||
Like a lot of people, especially the older generations, their purpose is their family. | ||
They have, you know, they've set money aside. | ||
They just dote on their family. | ||
They love their family. | ||
They spend time with their family. | ||
But you get a younger generation and their purpose is the next big drama. | ||
And that's their, they commit their whole life to this. | ||
This is, they're going to go to protest the wall. | ||
And that's just their, that's their purpose. | ||
That's their whole life. | ||
They put everything into it until that passes and their purpose is gone. | ||
So then they have that drop. | ||
Speaking of purpose, let's talk about this story from Bounding into Comics. | ||
Excellent. | ||
Marvel Comics author Ta-Nehisi Coates compares Jordan Peterson to the Red Skull in the latest issue of Captain America, and this plays into purpose, accountability, responsibility, and for some reason the woke left desperately trying to defend Nazi ideology, probably because they share that ideology to a great degree. | ||
Those that aren't familiar, the Red Skull is quite literally a Nazi scientist in the Captain America comic. | ||
He was the villain for Captain America, and it was written when, you know, like, World War II and stuff. | ||
So, uh, Red Skull's a Nazi. | ||
In this latest iteration, the Red Skull is apparently a YouTube self-help guru who is telling people to, like, the Ten Rules for Life or something. | ||
And I just love the idea How insane this comic is. | ||
Let me see if I can, uh, I'll pull up. | ||
unidentified
|
What's that image? | |
Yeah. | ||
Here it is right here. | ||
Check it out. | ||
Captain America, he's in this hospital and he says, so let me guess, your brother, he disappears into the internet. | ||
And when he comes back out, he can't stop talking about his new theory of the world. | ||
And that theory comes from one man. | ||
The Red Skull. | ||
And look at this laptop. | ||
Chaos and Order. | ||
Carl Luger's Genius. | ||
The Feminist Trap. | ||
And it's the Red Skull saying ten rules for life. | ||
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
Very obviously Jordan Peterson. | ||
Could you imagine if, like, the internet actually allowed a former Nazi scientist to go on and preach, like, extremism? | ||
They barely allow conservatives to say, learn to code. | ||
Like, they're going to allow the Red Skull on the internet. | ||
Is this real? | ||
Is this a joke? | ||
unidentified
|
No, this is real. | |
This is real. | ||
This is the real life. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Sorry. | ||
Look, dude. | ||
Listen. | ||
This is important. | ||
When you live the most privileged, pampered, affluenza life, and then along comes a psychologist who's like, Hey, clean your room! | ||
That's violence! | ||
It's painful! | ||
Be responsible. | ||
No, no, no, but seriously. | ||
These people are wads of cookie dough. | ||
They are puffy little pink marshmallows that you touch them slightly, it leaves a dent, and they start screaming because they've never experienced sensation of touch before. | ||
So you get someone like Jordan Peterson who's like, Clean your room. | ||
And it's like, how dare you tell me to do work? | ||
Work is not real. | ||
It's offensive. | ||
Genuinely, I believe these people feel physical pain when someone calls them a name because they've never experienced it before. | ||
It's like for the first time in their life, they're feeling a negative emotion because someone doesn't like them. | ||
These are people who grow up and they're given a trophy for everything. | ||
They go to school and then, you know, they answer the question wrong. | ||
That's okay. | ||
Here's your trophy. | ||
And they're like, yes. | ||
There's my dopamine rush. | ||
Get it wrong, you get the award anyway. | ||
Now they're older, and they finally graduate college outside of their bubble, you know, bubble. | ||
And then they're, like, walking down the street, and some guy goes, you suck. | ||
And they go, and they just, like, drop to their knees and, like, start hyperventilating. | ||
Or Jordan Peterson writes a book where he's like, if you want to be better, Take responsibility for yourself. | ||
Stand up straight. | ||
Stand up straight. | ||
Don't let anyone ride your back. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
That's it. | ||
He's amazing. | ||
Clinical psychologist, professor, vocal advocate for human rights. | ||
Brilliant. | ||
And red skull. | ||
And apparently the red skull. | ||
And a Nazi scientist. | ||
Good job, Jordan. | ||
Can you imagine like Captain America, his persona is opposed to classical liberalism and responsibility? | ||
Nope. | ||
It's the antithesis. | ||
Right. | ||
It's like Captain America may as well be Hydra at this point. | ||
Although they did that at one point, I guess. | ||
Who wrote that comic? | ||
Ta-Nehisi Coates? | ||
He's an activist. | ||
Oh, it's an activist who's writing Marvel comics? | ||
Yeah, a cultist. | ||
Cult dogma. | ||
Racist. | ||
I would say, you know, they try to use language for all their arguments. | ||
What's the... I don't want to say Nazi. | ||
They like to use that word, but it's become rather meaningless. | ||
They call Jordan Peterson a Nazi, and it's like he complains about the Nazis. | ||
He's a classical liberal psychologist who tells people to be responsible for themselves. | ||
It's like Nazism. | ||
So these people are something very similar. | ||
They hold a lot of the same belief structures and values, right? | ||
They're pro-segregation. | ||
Like Ibram X. Kendi, for instance, said, the only solution to past discrimination is present discrimination, which is like identitarianism, which overlaps greatly with the Nazi ideology. | ||
And you have classical liberals who are like, be responsible for yourself. | ||
You know, the rights are for the individual and things like that. | ||
They're trying to villainize those who believe in freedom and liberty because they're authoritarians. | ||
And they want people to bow to their cult. | ||
So it's no surprise they're trying to liken Jordan Peterson to the Red Skull. | ||
The crazy thing about it, though, is what they're effectively doing is they're making Nazis look good, which is the creepiest thing about it. | ||
Jordan Peterson's popular. | ||
He's a famous guy. | ||
He's a mainstream personality. | ||
The left might call him controversial, but he appears on talk shows about a variety of issues. | ||
So for them to be like, the Red Skull is a Nazi and like, this is, you know, Jordan Peterson, it's like, are you trying to make it look like Nazis are mainstream and accepted in society? | ||
Apparently, yes. | ||
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
Because they want to use that as a boogeyman. | ||
So they soften the view and they defend it. | ||
So over at the comic, I'll show you a little bit more, this guy says, Captain America says, it's the same for all of them, young men, weak, looking for purpose. | ||
I found the flag, you found the badge, they found the skull. | ||
He tells them what they've always longed to hear, that they are secretly great, that the whole world is against them, that if they're truly men, they'll fight back. | ||
And bingo, that's their purpose, that's what they live for, and that's what they'll die for. | ||
It's kind of funny, this idea that like, Individualists are more likely to die for their ideals than a collectivist. | ||
I kind of don't know if that's true. | ||
unidentified
|
You know what I mean? | |
Like a communist is going to be alive. | ||
The hive is willing to expend the drones way more readily than the individual. | ||
The individual will defend their lives, you know, to the last foot. | ||
But maybe, maybe individuals recognize the importance of individual action and that if they don't stand up, no one will. | ||
Whereas collectivists are like, someone else will do it. | ||
Why should I have to? | ||
So yeah, maybe. | ||
I keep thinking that the Red Skull and Superman are going to do a crossover. | ||
What? | ||
Michael Malice and Jordan Peterson. | ||
They did an interview a couple days ago. | ||
It was a little off topic, but I wanted to get it out. | ||
Now that Jordan Peterson is the Red Skull. | ||
Yes. | ||
And of course, Michael is Superman. | ||
They have an upcoming interview. | ||
It is really dumb. | ||
I'm almost aghast and dumbfounded. | ||
The left can't meme. | ||
They really can't, wow. | ||
There's more. | ||
They say, later at the conclusion of the issue, Redskull's followers proceed to overwhelm a wounded Captain America before he is rescued from his attackers by an armored Sharon Carter. | ||
In turn, Redskull takes footage of Roger's defeat and proceeds to use it in a propaganda video, appealing to the various racist and terroristic groups who have taken up his message by offering them a metaphorical sword of manhood. | ||
He says, What has happened to the men of the world is truly one of the great tragedies of our time. | ||
Once the American man was a conqueror, now he is but a caretaker. | ||
And a caretaker of what? | ||
He stands for some amorphous dream, a dream of nothing. | ||
But what I offer you is more than just some petty dream, more than a life of tending the hearth. | ||
No more shall women be summoned to fight your battles. | ||
I offer steel for your spine and iron for your gut. | ||
I offer you the sword of manhood. | ||
This sounds like a take on his, uh, Jordan's explanation of the meek shall inherit the earth, meaning not the weak. | ||
Uh, what it actually means is that those with a large weapon that choose not to use it, those are the meek. | ||
And those are the people that are usually the most respected and the ones that they have self-control. | ||
Yes. | ||
Yep. | ||
And obviously this guy destroyed that message and made it sound like he's trying to weaponize people. | ||
Well, that also lets you know that he's, he's a threat. | ||
His, his words are a threat. | ||
Yep. | ||
Jordan Peterson is threatening to them. | ||
That's why they have to be like, nope, he's a Nazi. | ||
And I'm going to meme about it because I'm good at that. | ||
Maybe. | ||
I also kind of think that they're just really dumb, and so they need something to be a villain, and they don't know, so they choose Jordan Peterson, and it literally makes no sense. | ||
Because if you actually look at Jordan Peterson, he's like, Nazis are bad. | ||
And they're like, well, that clearly means that Jordan Peterson's a Nazi, so... | ||
I'm guessing he probably sat there and he's like, all right, who are some self-help? | ||
You know, who are some mainstream conservative? | ||
Well, everybody they don't like is conservative. | ||
But you know, who are like, you know, he's pro-masculinity. | ||
So who are some big voices that are pro-masculinity? | ||
Because masculinity is evil right now. | ||
They are feminizing the military. | ||
They want nothing to do with masculinity right now. | ||
That's bad. | ||
It's all toxic. | ||
All masculinity is. | ||
So you wonder if he sat there and they kind of went over different mainstream, you know, men who have a podium and just landed on him by like a roll of the dice too. | ||
And we're like, you know. | ||
Where does this lead to if our comic books, our movies are telling men not to be masculine? | ||
They're saying masculinity is toxic and they're trying to prop up people like Brie Larson, who's just like a really mean person. | ||
I imagine, it's like, idiocracy didn't predict social justice, you know? | ||
For those that have seen the movie, you guys have seen Idiocracy, right? | ||
unidentified
|
No. | |
Part of it, no. | ||
The idea is that evolution stopped rewarding the strongest and simply rewards those who reproduce the most. | ||
unidentified
|
That's us. | |
So, like, stupid people are having tons of kids and smart people are like, now's not the time, so in 500 years, everyone's really dumb. | ||
However, what they didn't account for is wokeness. | ||
So, I'm imagining if all of these media outlets are saying, be effeminate, essentially. | ||
Don't be masculine. | ||
Masculinity is wrong. | ||
Jordan Peterson's a bad guy. | ||
Eventually, you're gonna get a bunch of dudes who are the epitome of toxic masculinity, and society's gonna be a bunch of wimpy, frail, scared, and effeminate men, and then the strong men will just walk in, take over. | ||
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
No one's gonna be able to do anything about it. | ||
That is one way. | ||
Also, another different direction would be like if people start creating new art forms, new comic books, a new comic company comes out with a new set of heroes that are legit, like more understandable and relatable, and we diverge evolutionarily. | ||
I don't think Homo sapien is the end of our route. | ||
Nah, we're gonna become robots. | ||
Yeah, some of us will become robotic humans, cybernetic. | ||
Some of us will become psychic. | ||
Some of us will become, like, more animal. | ||
And some of us will live on Mars. | ||
Some of us will live in orbit with larger bodies. | ||
It's all coming. | ||
I don't know what that has to do with comic books. | ||
Well, some of these weird critical race people might evolve into some bizarre self-hating race of violent humans. | ||
I really don't think that's a possibility because that would take hundreds of thousands of years for a divergence. | ||
But also, I think technology is speeding up our evolution. | ||
Right, but that's because we're incorporating technology into our bodies, which could ultimately mean we transform into some kind of robot creatures. | ||
But in television? | ||
Television rapidly evolved us. | ||
But I want to say this in regards to Captain America, and you mentioned new comics and new movies and new shows, so one of the things I'm doing is actually just, I've been, I've received a few pitches for TV shows and movies and stuff, and we might, we're on the verge of basically green-lighting a comedy series, which is, it's gonna be on TimCast.com I imagine, And we're just gonna start doing more of that. | ||
Just making cultural stuff that's fun, funny. | ||
It's not woke. | ||
It's not gonna be culture war stuff. | ||
It's just gonna be funny stuff. | ||
It'll probably poke fun at politics. | ||
But I look at this. | ||
Who cares about Captain America anymore? | ||
I gotta be honest. | ||
No one. | ||
Like, dude, it has been 70 years. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
Like, at a certain point, do they make new comic books with new heroes and new arcs and new stories? | ||
Or do we just keep rebooting the same characters and then just trying to make it relevant for some reason? | ||
Sorry, dude. | ||
I like the movies. | ||
But here's the thing about the MCU. | ||
They did three Captain America movies. | ||
And then Captain America did the Avengers. | ||
They brought them all together. | ||
And then he's like, I quit! | ||
Because at a certain point, they realized Captain America in the movie can't carry on anymore. | ||
So then he goes back in time, and boom, he's gone. | ||
Tony Stark. | ||
He does a bunch of movies. | ||
Obviously, three Iron Man movies, four Avenger movies, plus he was in Civil War. | ||
And then they were like, Robert Downey Jr.' 's run his course. | ||
We can't keep using Iron Man anymore. | ||
Time for him to move on. | ||
There'll be a new one like they do with Spider-Man. | ||
Sure, sure. | ||
In the MCU, they need a new character. | ||
And they're bringing old characters to life. | ||
They probably should have new characters, sure, fine. | ||
But at least in the MCU, they recognize, at a certain point, we've exhausted this character. | ||
We retire them. | ||
And unfortunately, the MCU is Stan Lee. | ||
Stan Lee made all, almost all those characters. | ||
The Hulk, The Thing, I mean he made all Fantastic Four. | ||
So I think they're trying to maybe keep him alive too, like in spirit by keeping to, you know, reboot his vision. | ||
Like WandaVision just came out. | ||
It was bad. | ||
Yeah. | ||
I thought WandaVision was terrible. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Did you see it? | ||
I watched it through. | ||
I didn't really have a strong feeling. | ||
I just got told I look like the Wanda. | ||
She just tortures. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh yeah, you do. | |
Yeah. | ||
She does that a lot. | ||
She tortures 3,000 people and she's the good guy. | ||
Nice. | ||
And the first three episodes are just a waste of time. | ||
The first three episodes, I was like, are we going to keep watching this? | ||
I turned it off. | ||
I just, we didn't watch it. | ||
And then I kept checking, I kept like waiting for social media posts. | ||
And then once I saw the show actually started at episode four, I was like, okay, I'll watch it now. | ||
And then I was kind of like, they really drag it out and waste your time. | ||
Anyway, look, I digress. | ||
We need new characters. | ||
We need new stories. | ||
We need new heroes. | ||
But I'll tell you, if I make new characters, new stories, I'm not making it for Marvel. | ||
That was Stan Lee's company. | ||
You know what it is? | ||
Disney owns it now. | ||
Stan Lee, and Jack Kirby, and who else? | ||
There was a handful of people back in the day. | ||
What did Kirby do? | ||
He created a bunch of the characters. | ||
So back in the day you had these people and they were geniuses. | ||
They were visionaries. | ||
They were like, I got an idea. | ||
It's this guy and when he gets mad he turns into a big green monster. | ||
I believe he originally wasn't green. | ||
I think he was like gray or something. | ||
Then they were like, the printing isn't so great. | ||
It's like heavy on the ink or something. | ||
I changed him. | ||
Something like that. | ||
Could be wrong. | ||
But we grew up with that being normal. | ||
We grew up with the ideas of these superheroes just existing, whereas back then, they were new and exciting. | ||
And it was like, wow, Superman! | ||
You know Superman originally couldn't fly? | ||
He could just jump really high. | ||
And then there was a period where he could shoot a small Superman from his hand. | ||
See, they weren't afraid to experiment. | ||
They were like, let's do a comic where Superman can fire a Superman from his hand, and it's a little version of himself. | ||
Probably the stupidest power I've ever heard of in comic book history. | ||
That's the Patronus, right? | ||
No, the Patronus is like a ball of hope and happiness that takes the shape of an animal. | ||
So, hey, respect to J.K. | ||
Rowling for creating a universe that was not the same. | ||
And you see how successful it was. | ||
That was incredibly successful. | ||
We need that stuff. | ||
So here's what I think we end up seeing. | ||
We have a bunch of regular people who are not the geniuses that were Stan Lee, right? | ||
And so all they can do is take what someone else made and move it around. | ||
And you end up with the lowest common denominator. | ||
This Jordan Peterson comic is scraping the bottom of the barrel so hard, they've ripped through the bottom layer of wood and they're just pulling up dirt. | ||
They're not even getting barrel anymore. | ||
They just don't even realize they're in the dirt right now. | ||
Nobody's gonna eat that, dude. | ||
That's not food. | ||
The wood chips weren't food. | ||
You're done. | ||
Not only have you repurposed Captain America to a ridiculous degree, Now you've made Red Skull a classical liberal or something. | ||
Then he's alt-right, I guess. | ||
It's the weirdest thing to not only repurpose it to such a degree that it's stupid, but then try and spin some mainstream critique that doesn't even work. | ||
It's one thing if you were like, the Red Skull is still a Nazi and he's got a plan to steal all the gold from Fort Knox and Captain America must stop him. | ||
You're like, all right, kind of generic, I guess, but it's about a Nazi and a guy fighting him. | ||
Now it's like he's on the internet making YouTube videos and it's like, wow, you've reached a whole new level of There is a metaphor between Hitler and the YouTube blogger, because Hitler basically was the first dictator to use mass media and whip a nation into a frenzy with video. | ||
Propaganda. | ||
He was a propaganda master. | ||
But Jordan Peterson? | ||
They could have picked any one of these alt-right dudes. | ||
I think they just think that Jordan Peterson's alt-right and they equate alt-rights with the Nazis. | ||
They are closer to Nazi than Jordan Peterson is. | ||
Oh, gosh, yeah, definitely. | ||
Definitely. | ||
They're all about collectivism and that's what the Nazis... We're all about the fascism of that. | ||
I would highly advise watching Jordan's breakout video where he's speaking to a group of students outside about not forcing compelled speech. | ||
Yes. | ||
That's so key. | ||
And he was saying, I've studied the Nazis. | ||
I've studied the totalitarian dictatorships of the communists. | ||
It begins with compelled speech. | ||
Forcing people to use pronouns. | ||
Do not do it. | ||
Well, there was a guy who was ordered to stop referring to his child as his daughter. | ||
And he got arrested for that, right? | ||
I believe so. | ||
Yeah, it was a contempt of court, I think. | ||
Yeah, so they were like, you have to refer to your child as a boy. | ||
And he was like, no. | ||
And then they were like, you're under arrest. | ||
And then Jordan Pino was like, I told you. | ||
And here we are. | ||
Doesn't it seem like everything they do is a reflection? | ||
Like they talk about words being... Projection? | ||
Projection. | ||
No, reflection. | ||
Listen, listen. | ||
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
Listen, listen. | ||
So it's a reflection because everything they say, they're like, we don't want to be racist. | ||
All we're going to do is break up white people and black people. | ||
We don't want any kind of hate speech. | ||
All we're going to do is separate a parent from its child because they used the wrong words. | ||
It's an inversion of what they're telling us. | ||
They're like, we want to be more kind and more compassionate. | ||
We're going to invite people to cross a desert and die and be trafficked for the sake of our compassion. | ||
That's why they say it's projection because they're complaining about what they do. | ||
They're saying other people do this awful thing that they actually do. | ||
This makes me think about libertarianism. | ||
We were just talking about this. | ||
Why I'm reticent to force my political views, no matter how benevolent I think they are, on other people. | ||
Because I know that is a phenomenon where we reflect our own negativity or project or refract or whatever. | ||
So I have this kind of hands-off approach to what I think other people should do, but sometimes there's such tragedy being invoked that I feel like I have to. | ||
But so does this guy, and that's what he's doing with this weird comic. | ||
Like, where do you draw? | ||
I mean, you're explicitly libertarian. | ||
Actually, I want to use this to launch off something you were talking about earlier pertaining to the COVID vaccine passports. | ||
Oh, yeah. | ||
And you brought up something really interesting that I immediately was like, nah, you can't be right about that. | ||
So let me do this first. | ||
We got some news from Fox. | ||
Biden administration will not require COVID-19 vaccine passports, White House says. | ||
Jen Psaki says there will be no federal vaccinations database. | ||
Now, this is kind of to assuage the fears of people who think the government's going to mandate everybody get a vaccine passport, but they've long said we can't do that, we won't do that. | ||
The private sector will do that, which is still interesting because I'm not sure the private sector can do that because of a lot of laws that already exist. | ||
Non-discrimination laws, the ADA, etc. | ||
But I bring this up because we're talking now about libertarianism, authoritarianism, and what the government is or isn't allowed to do and what we should support. | ||
So we'll do a hard segue, I guess, and just because I want you to bring this up. | ||
You mentioned that the COVID vaccine passports are not legal because of So we have a right to medical privacy. | ||
Wait, just use the use the fancy buzzword. | ||
Oh, I got it. | ||
I got to build up the suspense for it. | ||
unidentified
|
All right. | |
So in 1973, the Supreme Court determined that we are entitled to medical privacy. | ||
All right, so in 1973 the Supreme Court determined that we are entitled to medical privacy and | ||
this was a 7 to 2 ruling. | ||
Roe v. Wade determined that we are entitled to medical privacy. | ||
So Roe v. Wade and the vaccine passports contradict each other. | ||
What? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
I didn't know that, but in their ruling they said your medical history is your private. | ||
Yes, they used the 14th amendment and they said the government cannot compel you to expose your medical history. | ||
Like we can't control that. | ||
You are entitled to your medical history. | ||
I've heard the 14th Amendment thing, but would that stop a private company, I guess? | ||
Theoretically, I guess you could sue because a private company has no right to your medical history. | ||
Denying you a service based on medical history would be a violation of the ADA. | ||
It's crazy because... | ||
They'd have to go through you to get it. | ||
So they couldn't, like, go through your doctor because that'd be, you know, a violation of HIPAA laws if they went through your doctor. | ||
Right. | ||
So they'd have to go through you. | ||
So it'd have to be up to you to expose that. | ||
But I feel like you could bring a civil rights violation against them trying to make you expose your medical rights to, like, buy milk. | ||
Right, there was a big thing with masks where people started saying that they had, they were like, they printed out these fake cards where it's like, I have a medical condition and I'm protected under the Americans with Disabilities Act. | ||
And then they would go and walk around and if someone at a store was like, you gotta wear a mask, they'd be like, no I don't, I have this card. | ||
Okay, sure, look, the card's not real, but I think the idea actually is. | ||
It's like, imagine if a store was like, you can't come in here because your legs are broken. | ||
You know, we don't want to risk the lawsuit if you fall and get hurt. | ||
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
So they say the same thing. | ||
Well, we require you to be vaccinated. | ||
My medical history and what I can or can't do is none of your business. | ||
And that goes into the bigger question of, they've said, if you're pregnant, don't get the vaccine. | ||
They said, if you have allergies, you got to wait. | ||
And, you know, Joe Biden recently announced he's upped the timeline so that every adult can get the vaccine by April 19th. | ||
But what if your doctor tells you, for this reason, we don't think you should? | ||
My doctor told me I shouldn't. | ||
Why is that? | ||
Because I have a blood condition. | ||
Interesting. | ||
So now you're going to go to a store and they're going to say, you need a vaccine passport. | ||
And then you can say, it's none of your business. | ||
What my doctor told me and why is none of your business. | ||
And what's going to happen? | ||
What do you do? | ||
I'll probably get kicked out. | ||
Well, that would be a violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act, wouldn't it? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
I mean, I think the Americans with Disabilities Act is very specific with what they consider a disability. | ||
Like my, my blood condition isn't like, I'm not sure what's on there. | ||
So I don't want to misquote it. | ||
But I know, I know I couldn't get disability or social security or anything from what's the matter with me. | ||
So. | ||
I wonder if that is required, because if you're also immunocompromised, that should be taken into account as well, because I probably won't get it because I am. | ||
Yeah. | ||
So look, the ADA data.org says, the Americans with Disabilities Act became law in 1990. | ||
The ADA is a civil rights law that prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities in all areas of public life, including jobs, school, transportation, public and private places that are open to the general public. | ||
The purpose of the law is to make sure that people with disabilities have the same rights and opportunities as | ||
everyone else The ada gives civil rights protections to individuals with | ||
disabilities similar to those provided to individuals on the basis of race color | ||
Sex national origin age religion it guarantees equal opportunity for individuals with disabilities in public | ||
accommodation employment transportation state local government services and telecommunications | ||
So I wonder if they would argue That you know, okay | ||
So actually it says in 2008 the ada was signed into law and became effective on january 2009 | ||
The, I'm sorry. | ||
Yeah. | ||
So, so the, it's the Americans with Disability Amendments Act. | ||
It made a number of significant changes to the definition of disability. | ||
The changes in the definition of disability apply to all titles of the ADA. | ||
So I have to go through the, all the changes, but I'm curious if your doctor says, I'm sorry, because of your condition, you are not able to get this vaccine. | ||
She said I wouldn't recommend it. | ||
You got to take your doctor's advice. | ||
I know. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
So for everybody listening, if your doctor says you should listen to your doctor, if your doctor says you should listen to your doctor, because I think, you know, you don't want to be getting advice from people on the internet. | ||
According to that, what you just read, it didn't say anywhere in there that, um, like a restaurant can refuse, cannot refuse service to someone because of a disability. | ||
It sounds like that law doesn't protect people. | ||
unidentified
|
It does. | |
Public accommodation means restaurants, but it's a private accommodation. | ||
Public accommodation means like a service provided to the general public. | ||
So a restaurant is a public accommodation. | ||
Because it's a store. | ||
Because it's open to the public. | ||
So basically a private shop would be like members only, you can't come in. | ||
Public is a sign saying open. | ||
So if somebody walks into your restaurant, you can't accuse them of trespassing. | ||
Unless you warn them first. | ||
If you have a closed private membership only restaurant and someone walks in, it's trespassing. | ||
Typically, you still gotta warn people it's trespassing no matter what. | ||
But the general idea is, if it says open and you're allowing people in, it's a public accommodation. | ||
I mean, actually, it's more nuanced than that. | ||
Even a private membership business can still be considered a public accommodation. | ||
Like if someone says, I would like to join and become a member, and you say you can't because your disability, then they can sue you and say you're denying them a public accommodation. | ||
Could it be like this is a COVID vaccine only restaurant? | ||
That's what I'm wondering. | ||
I really don't know. | ||
It depends on the definition of disability. | ||
So I would imagine that means some kind of medical condition. | ||
And if you have a medical condition that prevents you from getting the vaccine, this is why we want herd immunity. | ||
Because some people can't get it. | ||
There was this viral tweet from this woman. | ||
She's taking a picture of herself, getting the vaccine, she's 14 weeks pregnant. | ||
Have you seen this? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
I don't know if it's real, so again, take it all with a grain of salt, and I absolutely want to make sure I preface, a lot of these stories, you know, don't take one story as evidence of widespread anything. | ||
Anecdote. | ||
Yeah, talk to your doctor. | ||
I do personally know a pregnant woman who has gotten the vaccine. | ||
And she's fine? | ||
I haven't heard anything, yeah. | ||
There you go. | ||
She's fine. | ||
In this viral meme, a pregnant woman gets a vaccine, and then a few days later, has a miscarriage. | ||
And it could happen. | ||
It could be, honestly, miscarriages. | ||
When they happen, they usually were going to happen anyway. | ||
At 14 weeks, though, you're out of the first trimester, which is when 90% happen. | ||
And then, so, I mean, it could have just been a coincidence. | ||
It could have been related to the vaccine. | ||
We don't know that. | ||
It could have just been all ready to happen. | ||
Well, there were, in I think the UK, doctors said, if you are a pregnant woman, wait. | ||
If you have food allergies, wait. | ||
Talk to your doctor first. | ||
And so, right then, it's like, what are we going to do? | ||
Are we going to deny someone access to buy milk and bread because your doctor says no? | ||
I don't think we should. | ||
I think that's a civil rights violation. | ||
Yeah, I think so too. | ||
Human rights in the West. | ||
Imagine if they were like, you have to weigh a certain amount to come into this store. | ||
Because we know that obesity causes large amounts of death every year. | ||
So you go to Walmart and they're like, ooh, you're too heavy to come into this store. | ||
Or if someone has the flu. | ||
Like 70 or 80% of COVID deaths were obese. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Large number. | ||
That's alarming. | ||
We're obese. | ||
I mean, and that's why I think America is having such an issue with this because we're so fat. | ||
We're fat guys. | ||
I think so. | ||
There's a lot of, a lot of excess. | ||
That's sad. | ||
And it's such an important part of this puzzle. | ||
If you look at like the Mediterranean, they're not anywhere. | ||
And people are like, well, that's because they're social distancing and wearing masks. | ||
No, that's because they're not fat. | ||
I saw a meme where it was like two, two lines going to two different kiosks and one line was like shots and pills and the line was saturated. | ||
All these people were in there. | ||
It was a change in lifestyle. | ||
Can we talk about fats on here? | ||
This is interesting. | ||
Disability is defined according to this website as a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities, a record of such impairment, or being regarded as having such an impairment. | ||
That's interesting because the vaccine passport is what would make it a disability. | ||
If, right now, your doctor's like, here's our advice to you, and for your, you know, you weren't advised because of your blood condition, you shouldn't get it. | ||
So, that's not a disability. | ||
But if they then say everyone, all these businesses have to have vaccine passports, all of a sudden now it is. | ||
It's restricting you from a major access, you know, major access to, you know, services and stuff like that. | ||
Interesting. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
And then you'd be able to get disability insurance because you couldn't go to the store. | ||
I wonder how that works. | ||
You gotta hire someone to do it for you? | ||
Yeah, I don't know. | ||
I mean, I don't, my blood condition, I don't create red blood cells. | ||
So that's why I'm so pale and why I get winded going up the stairs. | ||
But that's mine. | ||
And I mean, you can't really see it. | ||
You can't really tell. | ||
I don't want to, you know, carry a passport around with it that tells, you know, the stranger at the supermarket what's the matter with me. | ||
So this is the issue I take with the Libertarian Party, because the government isn't going to be the one starting the vaccine passports. | ||
They're, they're, oh no, we can't do it, and they can't. | ||
14th Amendment, great. | ||
All these laws, sure. | ||
But a private company can. | ||
And then what happens? | ||
Oh, thank heavens it's not the government. | ||
It's just Walmart and Amazon. | ||
Amazon, you want to buy something online. | ||
It's like, before a delivery driver can come to your house, you must prove you're vaccinated. | ||
Otherwise, you're putting our drivers at risk. | ||
It's like, well, what am I supposed to do? | ||
Scan your QR code, enter your vaccine number, and then that's what private companies will do. | ||
Well, that's a difference. | ||
So I was talking earlier about libertarianism, how it's the spectrum from anarchy to constitutionalism. | ||
It's just a matter of how much government is necessary and how much government is needed. | ||
So an anarchist view would just be like, nope, we're just You know, they can do whatever they want until the cows come home and there's nothing we can do. | ||
And, you know, it's like, oh, for instance, it's like with what's going on social media. | ||
Oh, they're like, create another. | ||
We're at a point where you need to create another Internet. | ||
Yeah. | ||
At this point, like you can't create more more social media because they do that. | ||
Like Parler did that. | ||
And what happened? | ||
Gone. | ||
Yeah. | ||
You know, so so we're at a point where it's like, well, why don't you just create another Internet? | ||
And so it's like, OK, maybe Elon Musk will get on that. | ||
I don't know. | ||
But Trump. | ||
Yeah, Trump could get on that. | ||
I mean, they could happen, but you're going to be bound to those rules, too. | ||
So it's just a matter of, like I said, I'm a minarchist, so I believe in justice and defense. | ||
That's really the limits of what I believe to be the government's role for enforcing the Constitution. | ||
And so, I would have to think at it from that perspective. | ||
Okay, so, are people, like, where's justice gonna, like, are people gonna be, is there gonna be an injustice here? | ||
Like, if people are not being served? | ||
If people can't, is there an injustice should the government interfere because of this, this, you know, human rights injustice? | ||
Essentially, if you can't have, you know, buy food, or if you can't, like, this is where it gets a little sketchy. | ||
This is why I think the Libertarian Party is pro-authoritarian. | ||
Yes, they are. | ||
They're like the pawns of authoritarian, corporatist, monopolist power. | ||
Yes, they are. | ||
You have massive multinational corporations, and they're going, oh no, the government is being mean to our overlords! | ||
It's like, what? | ||
If you're actually for libertarian views, the little L, like true opposition to authoritarianism, it doesn't matter if it's a corporation or a government. | ||
They're both organizations, just in different capacities. | ||
The government is organized. | ||
It's an organized group of people who do a thing. | ||
A corporation is the same. | ||
They have structures. | ||
They have a hierarchy. | ||
They have control. | ||
Some companies are co-ops. | ||
Some are non-profits. | ||
Some governments are democracies. | ||
Some are autocratic. | ||
Some are... I mean, you had that guy, what was that name? | ||
What was that guy's name in Uruguay? | ||
Jose Mojica, was that his name? | ||
I'm not sure. | ||
He was like the president, he lived on a little farm, he had a little car, and everyone loved him. | ||
Oh yeah, I remember him! | ||
Yeah, so you have some governments like that. | ||
Government is not the same thing everywhere, and corporations aren't the same thing everywhere. | ||
Both can monopolize power and cause problems. | ||
I happen to lean against, you know, the reason communism and socialism are bad is because it's a bunch of people sitting down going, I have an idea. | ||
Let's centralize all the power with one group of people. | ||
And it's like, that's a really bad idea. | ||
And then the problem I see with ANCAPS and the Libertarian Party is they're like, we should allow major corporations to slowly accrue power so that a small handful of individual elites control everything. | ||
And I'm like, what's the difference if your life is dictated to you by someone else? | ||
So we need to restrict corporate power and government power. | ||
But we don't get that. | ||
We have the left typically being like, the corporations are bad, and the right being like, government is bad. | ||
And I'm like, hey, hey, hey, hey, they're both bad. | ||
unidentified
|
They're both awful. | |
You guys are just both awful. | ||
Yeah, well, they both are. | ||
Just awful. | ||
Well, if you look at what these corporations are, we could have thousands and thousands of competitors. | ||
Everybody out there competing against each other and what was I saying that there are what there's there's like 10 10 businesses 10 corporations that just own everything they just own everything and what are some perks that they have they have they get billions in subsidies billions they they get special protections by the government and then you know they buy up their competition and so there's language in the 14th amendment for government granted monopolies, which if you're given the money and you're given the protections, you're probably granting their ability to exist. | ||
Yes. | ||
So if there's language against that, that those should not exist. | ||
And that's just not being enforced because too many of these politicians are dirty and they're profiting off these corporations. | ||
They're in bed with the corporations. | ||
So why are they going to? | ||
Why are they going to? | ||
They're going to get a job once they get out of office. | ||
It's a hard job, man. | ||
You're fundraising nonstop. | ||
Lobbyists, maybe. | ||
You don't get paid that much money, but then afterwards you get this permanent access pass to Capitol Hill, and all of a sudden now you can do lobbying. | ||
Yep, they can lobby. | ||
These government-granted monopolies, they're supposedly du jour monopolies, meaning by law the government is instilling. | ||
But these aren't du jour monopolies. | ||
These aren't like Twitter. | ||
It's not a government-granted monopoly, even though the government subsidizes. | ||
To be honest, I don't know what they subsidize with Twitter. | ||
But it's a de facto monopoly. | ||
They are by fact. | ||
It's not by law. | ||
They're not legally monopolized. | ||
They just have monopolized the social sphere. | ||
If the government admits that they're, what did you say, du jour? | ||
Yeah, du jour. | ||
Du jour monopoly, then they have to abolish them. | ||
Exactly. | ||
So they're just going to exist de facto. | ||
I hear a lot from the laissez-faire capitalists or ANCAP types, and they'll say things like, Tim, you're not talking about a real capitalism. | ||
Real capitalism, you're talking about corporatism and the government's interference, which creates these monopolies. | ||
It's only because of special access and special rules that the government holds back the competition and props up these big companies. | ||
And that's kind of true with Section 230, for instance. | ||
Empowers those that are massive to get away with whatever they want and then destroy their opponents. | ||
But I'm like, The idea that this isn't real capitalism just sounds like utopian to me. | ||
It's not real communism, sure. | ||
That's not real capitalism. | ||
I'm like, listen, capitalism is infinitely better than communism in a million different ways. | ||
Unfettered capitalism outright will eventually see power coalesce around a small handful of people with or without government regulation. | ||
We need to stifle that concentration of power. | ||
I don't necessarily know how. | ||
Taxes is one way. | ||
Yeah, the problem is it just powers the government then. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
And the government just then grows and becomes massive, and then they effectively just create a rolling door between the massive multinational corporations and themselves. | ||
I mean, gotta elect people who are gonna be like, alright, you're a monopoly, we need to call you that, we need to get rid of you. | ||
They're all puppets at this point. | ||
The government's centralized too, which is a problem. | ||
Exactly. | ||
It's a monopoly. | ||
The government is a monopoly. | ||
It's a monopoly on violence and the ability to take money from people. | ||
We didn't have the technology. | ||
And a bunch of millionaires. | ||
unidentified
|
More than that. | |
Imagine if Netflix had a group of people with guns that they would show up at your house and be like, you have to sign up for Netflix. | ||
And you're like, I don't want to. | ||
Too bad! | ||
Yep. | ||
unidentified
|
That's what taxation is. | |
We're here, we own it. | ||
So if the government made a social media site and then they were like, you have to sign up. | ||
You're automatically signed up. | ||
In the UK you have the TV licensing fee or whatever. | ||
Everyone has to pay it. | ||
Unless you don't have a computer or a TV. | ||
And it funds the BBC, I guess. | ||
We're in a weird place where centralized government, it still kind of works. | ||
Well, no, I mean, it kind of works, but we're building tech that allows us to decentralize the way we vote, the way we interact with each other via television and internet video and things like that. | ||
Nah, you only think that, bro. | ||
Well, we're on the cusp of like a new way of, like Putin and Biden could get on a YouTube video chat tomorrow and have a two hour live stream together. | ||
Sure. | ||
That's not decentralization though. | ||
That's pure centralization. | ||
He doesn't, Putin doesn't have to fly to DC. | ||
We don't have to centralize. | ||
anymore. That's semantics, bro. No, we can communicate from afar. Right. When we're talking | ||
about decentralization, we're talking about distributing power between different nodes, | ||
not one point. Biden and Putin arguing is pure centralization of power. | ||
Then they're talking to each other. You're talking about spiritually or psychologically. | ||
Yeah. Putting all the power in an individual. Yeah. But actually centralizing the fourth, | ||
like Washington, D.C. used to be the centralized point of our power structure. | ||
No longer. | ||
We can- the government can function from anywhere and probably does. | ||
It does. | ||
That's why the people storming the Capitol, it's like, what were you thinking? | ||
That was so stupid. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
We're gonna enter this building and that's it. | ||
It's like, no, that's not it. | ||
It's the internet exists. | ||
What are you doing? | ||
Yeah. | ||
It's those people. | ||
So maybe a government... I have a feeling a government will be built that facilitates the technology. | ||
I suppose it's up to the people. | ||
I think the blockchain stuff is valuable. | ||
I think crypto is valuable. | ||
But if you think that these technologies are decentralized, I got a bridge to sell you. | ||
You think that the U.S. | ||
government just sat back and watched Bitcoin grow exponentially and did not buy large portions of the blockchain and set up servers all over the place? | ||
Maybe they did, maybe they didn't. | ||
Okay, maybe we can say the U.S. | ||
government's inept, and that's possible. | ||
But I kind of feel like there's probably confidential stuff we don't know about. | ||
We know China was buying tons of Bitcoin. | ||
I'd be willing to bet the U.S. | ||
tried to buy 51% of whatever network they could, and they're constantly doing whatever they can to maintain control of that network. | ||
Because if they got 51%, then they own it. | ||
Not decentralized. | ||
Sure. | ||
Well, we're not just relying on blockchain. | ||
There's other decentralized networks like Interplanetary File System, IPFS, and new ones that keep getting built. | ||
And 51% is better than 100%. | ||
51% is better than 100%. | ||
Well, no, but what I mean is all they need in order to control 100% of a network is 51% of the computers. | ||
Okay, that's why I guess why I said on the cusp. We're not at a point where we have a decentralized system. | ||
But, you know, that is a light at the end of the tunnel, maybe, or a light in the distance. | ||
Decentralization require, like, interstellar colonization. | ||
You know, what effectively allowed us to break away from the British Empire was the distance. | ||
3,000 miles away, it was very hard for them to enforce anything. | ||
Yeah. | ||
And if we don't have a decentralized system, when we colonize Mars, it will be solar war. | ||
So we have to, for our survival. | ||
Solar war. | ||
I don't know if we do not want the first solar war. | ||
I don't know if we'll get to that point because, you know, colonies on Mars or wherever else, they're going to require a stream of supplies. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Yeah. | ||
They're not going to be able to survive on their own without resources coming in for some time. | ||
Maybe in 50 years, 200 years, we'll have biodomes and we'll be taxing them and be like, we send you your supplies and they're like, not anymore! | ||
And they throw all the space tea into the space harbor. | ||
unidentified
|
On Mars. | |
There's so much iron. | ||
They eject it into space. | ||
Yes. | ||
All that iron, all that red dust is iron oxide. | ||
Yeah. | ||
There's a lot of iron on Mars. | ||
They make Martian swords with it. | ||
Send them back to Earth. | ||
But then the military's like, we don't sword fight anymore. | ||
So they don't buy them. | ||
And then Mars is like, what are we supposed to do? | ||
We need food. | ||
And so then we buy them anyway as like a goodwill gesture to like make it seem like we actually are buying something when in reality just like arbitrarily making them work in exchange for resources. | ||
They declare independence and they'll die. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh. | |
All right, you know what? | ||
We're gonna talk about some serious stuff, but you know what? | ||
No, we're not. | ||
Speaking of Mars and aliens and whatever other nonsense we've been talking about, check this story out from the Daily Mail. | ||
Former director of the CIA, James Woolsey, says he was skeptical about aliens until a friend's aircraft was paused at 40,000 feet, and he hopes we can be friendly to the other creatures if they exist. | ||
Let me say that again. | ||
Until a friend's aircraft was paused. | ||
4,000 feet. | ||
What is that? | ||
Tractor beam? | ||
What friend is he talking about? | ||
A friend's aircraft? | ||
I thought that he said he saw a friend's aircraft get passed? | ||
Whoa! | ||
I mean, he could have had a stroke. | ||
Yeah, possibly. | ||
I was just watching Star Trek earlier and it was the episode where time keeps freezing. | ||
Have you guys seen that one? | ||
I've seen them all. | ||
That's what happened. | ||
unidentified
|
That's brilliant. | |
The runabout the shuttle and then all of a sudden Deanna Troy is sitting there and everyone just freezes like stops | ||
in time And it's because there's fragments of space-time continuum | ||
moving like shattering all around them and they're mushroom So anyway to then hear the story. I'm like | ||
Check it out. He's Walsy said that stories always seemed pretty far out to me, but there was one case in which a friend of mine was able to have his aircraft stop at 40,000 feet or so and not continue operating as a normal aircraft. | ||
What was going on? | ||
I don't know. | ||
Does anybody know? | ||
Walsy said the source was someone I respect. | ||
John Greenwald Jr., the host, pointed out that the other former CIA directors have said they are open to the possibility of alien life. | ||
In December, John Brennan told a podcast he felt it was arrogant to believe that we were alone in the universe. | ||
Life is defined in many ways, Brennan said during the December 16th episode. | ||
Now hold on! | ||
This story comes out, right? | ||
Another story came out. | ||
Another story comes out around the same time. | ||
What's up with this? | ||
NBC News. | ||
Drones that swarmed U.S. | ||
warships are still unidentified, Navy chief says. | ||
The military is expected to deliver a report later this year to Congress on the unidentified aerial phenomena. | ||
This is from April 5th, 1124 p.m., just last night. | ||
They published this story. | ||
A bunch of naval destroyers have tic-tac-shaped objects hovering for 90 minutes at high speed, just sitting there. | ||
Beyond commercial drone technology. | ||
And they don't know what it is. | ||
So Marco Rubio talked about it and he was like, whatever's going on with these things flying over our military installations, it's like a national security breach. | ||
Like our security has been breached and we don't know what it is. | ||
It's a major threat to this country. | ||
Then we get this story coming out where this dude's like, oh yeah, my friend's aircraft was frozen at 40,000 feet. | ||
What is that? | ||
All right, so I think that there's... Aliens! | ||
So I think this could be three different things, and I'm going to probably forget them as I list them. | ||
One, I mean, there could be some technology that China made that got in because they're targeting the military bases. | ||
No normal people are seeing this. | ||
People in the government are seeing this. | ||
People in the military are seeing this. | ||
I'm not seeing it. | ||
You're not seeing it. | ||
You know, it could be aliens that are like, all right, we've targeted the uranium. | ||
I have no idea. | ||
So it could be aliens. | ||
All right. | ||
OK, I'll put it out. | ||
There could be aliens. | ||
We could have aliens. | ||
All right. | ||
It could be that they do know what it is, but aliens are more interesting. | ||
Yes. | ||
So it's going to distract us from whatever it is that is trying to kill us. | ||
Or it could be that they just put stories like this out Well, they're passing draconian legislation, so we're distracted. | ||
I don't know, I gotta look and see what's going on in the legislature right now. | ||
That's true. | ||
Yeah, it could be that Earth is a zoo. | ||
You know the Great Zoo Hypothesis? | ||
Do you guys know about Fermi's Paradox? | ||
Lightly. | ||
The general idea is like, if the universe is so vast and massive, and life does exist, then shouldn't we have found some evidence of intelligent life somewhere else at some point? | ||
And so then there's a bunch of answers people propose like there's the the great I think it was it called the great barrier or something I don't know the the great filter sorry that all life at a certain point wipes itself out for some reason one of them is the zoo hypothesis that earth is effectively a zoo and And that we're in a big cage where the aliens come to watch us and giggle at the stupid things that humans do. | ||
I think South Park called it Reality TV. | ||
That Earth was just a reality TV show for the aliens and they all watched and laughed at us. | ||
And then they cancelled us and they were going to blow the Earth up. | ||
I remember that. | ||
Yeah. | ||
There's another really creepy, really creepy idea of what it could be, why we haven't seen anybody. | ||
Because the more intelligent beings out there know that there is something bigger and worse than anything in the universe. | ||
They know what it is and they don't want it to find us, but we're stupid. | ||
So darkness. | ||
Yeah, there's there's something out there. | ||
They know about they don't want it to find them. | ||
But it's like, hey, let's look for. | ||
Yeah, let's look. | ||
And we're sitting there. | ||
We're sitting there going like, hello, like you're like, it's like the friend who walks like that, like the friend walks into the old cabin where the murderer is. | ||
Yes, exactly. | ||
Where are you? | ||
I'm over here. | ||
And the murder is like walking up. | ||
Yeah, that's exactly. | ||
unidentified
|
They run, they trip. | |
That theory also, it has a name. | ||
I don't remember what the name of the theory is, but it kind of gave me chills the first time I read it. | ||
I'm like, wow, we're dumb. | ||
We're like yelling into the darkness. | ||
We're like yelling, hello! | ||
I don't like the Fermi Paradox theory that if life is here, then why shouldn't we have found it? | ||
Because we just found out ice was on Mars like six years ago and that there's likely life within the frozen water and on Europa as well, one of Jupiter's moons. | ||
And we also speculate as to would intelligent life develop EMF technology and broadcast anything? | ||
It's really funny that we're like, we just started using radio waves and now we assume everybody to be using them? | ||
I think that's a waste. | ||
kind of a waste of money to a certain degree. | ||
Like we're building these giant space telescopes that I understand to look at | ||
stuff. But then we also have SETI, search for extraterrestrial intelligence, | ||
where we're looking for like radio waves and stuff. | ||
It's like, that's still cool. | ||
It's something we should still do. | ||
And I guess the hope that we'll find alien life is a good motivation to do it | ||
because we'll probably discover other things. | ||
But this idea that in the past hundred years or 150 years, we started using | ||
radio waves and now we're assuming other intelligent life would use the same | ||
They could be using light fidelity technology. | ||
We have that now as well. | ||
Fiber optics, for instance. | ||
They could use a laser that flickers to broadcast data, and we're not going to see that from far away. | ||
You know, something that I was hearing that I don't know too much about this, but one thing that I heard that they shoot out into the universe is like math, because math is like universal. | ||
I mean, unless you live on Earth, when 2 plus 2 is 5. | ||
But they try to, they cast stuff like that out. | ||
1 plus 1 is 2. | ||
You know, like things that make sense to everybody. | ||
I think, you know what it is? | ||
We're in a simulation. | ||
There's no other intelligent life because we're in a simulation and what we're seeing, these tic-tac-things, they're game mods. | ||
They're game managers. | ||
They're admins. | ||
So it's a nondescript vehicle, a tic-tap, that can move around seemingly outside the laws of physics because it's a moderator. | ||
If you think about when everything really went to H-E double hockey sticks was when they turned on the atom smasher. | ||
The Large Hadron Collider. | ||
unidentified
|
It was 2012. | |
And then we got forced into the Trump dimension. | ||
And at the same time, they repealed and replaced the Propaganda Act. | ||
At the same time, they turned on the Hydron... Can we make this movie? | ||
Is there a filmmaker out there who wants to make a movie about the Large Hadron Collider fires and it causes a big ripple? | ||
And the space-time continuum that blankets the Earth? | ||
And then all of a sudden it's like... | ||
You see Hillary Clinton walking up to accept the win on election night and then all of a sudden it just like flickers | ||
and then she turns into Trump. | ||
And it's like, and they're watching in a protective sphere as reality is being changed around them. | ||
They're like, what have we done? | ||
I think, yes, there is. | ||
And partly because you just called for it. | ||
So I wonder if alien life is out there, and as soon as we say, alien life, come to us, it's like, I want to go in that direction. | ||
Like, inspiration strikes. | ||
Here's what I'm imagining. | ||
Like, all of these world leaders are in this protective space-time bubble, as they're about to fire the Large Hadron Collider, and then they watch reality shift around them, and like, Hillary flickers and then turns into Trump, and now Trump's the winner, and they're like, What have we done? | ||
And the world leaders are like, we must fix this. | ||
And they try to fire up the Large Hadron Collider again, but then a magnet breaks. | ||
And they're like, oh no, the machine's broken. | ||
We're trapped in this dimension. | ||
And so then they have to spend four years accusing Trump of being a Russian spy. | ||
You must know the wall, wall, wall, wall, wall. | ||
And they're like, what have we done? | ||
It's broken. | ||
unidentified
|
Fix it. | |
Wall, wall, wall. | ||
We must bip, bip, bip. | ||
And then they're like, we're running out of power. | ||
And they're like, no. | ||
There was some kind of an animal. | ||
We're trapped in the reality where Trump is president. | ||
There was some kind of an animal that got into the area. | ||
I don't know if it was a squirrel or a monkey. | ||
I don't remember. | ||
Some kind of animal that got into the hatchery and collided. | ||
I'm like, you know what? | ||
I'm like, someone turned themselves into this thing to stop this from happening and they're dead now. | ||
It's a squirrel, and it finds an acorn, the acorn's bouncing down the hill and it's chasing after it, and then it falls into a vent, the squirrel jumps in, and the squirrel's in the Large Hadron Collider, and it's falling right when he gets to the middle of it, the proton goes right through and mixes with squirrel proton of some sort. | ||
Oh gosh, explains so much. | ||
And then it causes a ripple. | ||
Anti-matter explosion, plus squirrel. | ||
I love squirrels. | ||
But in all seriousness, there was an animal that did get into the Hadron Collider. | ||
Really? | ||
Yeah, I'm telling you the truth. | ||
Oh my. | ||
Any idea what kind of animal? | ||
I can't remember, but somebody can look it up. | ||
I remember reading this story about a dude who was in a, not the Large Hadron Collider, but he was in a Super Collider. | ||
And something, a proton, a single proton, like went through his head. | ||
Oh my god. | ||
And it messed him up in a really weird way, but didn't kill him. | ||
It just like screwed with his brain. | ||
Oh my gosh, what if they've done that to like... | ||
They did that to all the Dems. | ||
Yeah, everyone just got a single proton fired through their brains. | ||
And now they're all like, everything is woke. | ||
I heard this Incan scientist explaining the reason the pyramids are there is because protons are flying at Earth from outer space because the Earth's magnetic core is negatively charged because it's just iron. | ||
And so the protons fly through the surface of Earth, through our bodies, causing free radical damage. | ||
And then when they get close to the center of the Earth, the positive energy at the center forces it to repel and go | ||
flying back out and back through our bodies again. | ||
So they built these pyramids to channel the positive energy on its way back out and focus it through a point to gather | ||
it from the surroundings so it didn't cause free radical damage on the humans. | ||
The Egyptians were so smart. | ||
I have an easier answer to why there's pyramids all over the place. | ||
Why's that? | ||
Because people who didn't know that much, it was the easiest thing to build. | ||
Let me stack rocks like this. | ||
There you go. | ||
You build a structure, you stack some rocks. | ||
Yeah. | ||
It might've been like also a tomb, also a battery. | ||
It was capped with gold, which is a superconductor. | ||
Well, if there was, it looks like there's water channels inside of it. | ||
And if there's a charge, like if the water was called... You're watching too much Ancient Aliens. | ||
There's this thing called the telluric current in the earth. | ||
That's like this low frequency magnetic current that flows. | ||
And apparently it's, it's strong under where the pyramids are. | ||
Tesla was working on it. | ||
Telluric. | ||
Earth current. | ||
Interesting! | ||
It's an electric current that moves underground or through the sea. | ||
To lurk currents result from both natural causes and human activity, and the discrete currents interact in a complex pattern. | ||
The currents are extremely low frequency and travel over large areas at or near the surface of the earth. | ||
Interesting! | ||
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
I don't know. | ||
Wikipedia says it's true, so it must be true. | ||
Tesla was tapping into it and trying to send electricity through the ground, and people obviously wanted to sell their copper wires, so they shut that down. | ||
But I think this technology might have something to do with that. | ||
These drones or these things that we're seeing flying around. | ||
Like what, they're charged by it? | ||
Possibly. | ||
Or it's onboard fusion, or it's like a light, or it's like a light refraction that we think is a craft. | ||
I don't know, maybe it's just like solid state batteries that someone developed and we don't know about yet. | ||
They could just be batteries. | ||
Someone could have just developed it. | ||
I mean, they're watching the military forces and they're watching, you know, North Korea and they're watching all the targets. | ||
But what if it's just some dude in his basement? | ||
unidentified
|
I mean, that's like Lex Luthor level stuff. | |
Having these drones that defy modern technology. | ||
Like Jeff Bezos? | ||
Jeff, I love you, and you're not Lex Luthor. | ||
But your shaved head makes you... And you know what I've been thinking about, too, is Mark Zuckerberg. | ||
He's a really cool guy. | ||
There's nothing wrong with him. | ||
Mark Zuckerberg, just great. | ||
Jeff Bezos, awesome. | ||
Amazon wouldn't be experimenting with drone technology. | ||
I love how it's, like, very obvious we don't like them. | ||
I wouldn't be surprised if Bezos has, like, a secret lab where he's doing crazy stuff. | ||
Dude, I mean, that is the story. | ||
The guy who's doing global shipping, drones, helping all these people, also secretly spying on American military bases. | ||
It was funny, when I tweeted Elon Musk, I was like, I was like, hey, Elon, why haven't you built an Iron Man suit yet? | ||
And he tweeted back, building Starship. | ||
And I'm like, all right, fair point. | ||
unidentified
|
You know, it's like, hey, you know, that's actually unacceptable. | |
So he's doing the shield thing? | ||
Is that? | ||
He's building a ship to go to Mars. | ||
Didn't S.H.I.E.L.D. | ||
have like a space in orbit, Nick Fury's? | ||
No, they're the Helicarriers. | ||
You're thinking Justice League had the Batman thing in space. | ||
Okay, so he's doing Justice League first. | ||
He's going to Mars. | ||
I think. | ||
Well, so if we follow the D.C. | ||
timeline, then what I think is supposed to happen is Elon Musk | ||
will send a crew to Mars who will accidentally uncover an | ||
ancient temple where a bunch of invasive aliens were frozen by the | ||
Who will then be awoken by the astronaut, take over his body, or assume his form, come to Earth, and there will be a secret invasion, and, you know, the Justice League will have to form. | ||
There's a well-known theory that, I mean, facts are not endorsements, but there's a well-known theory that there was some kind of nuclear war between Earth and Mars, which used to be colonized, because of what, yeah, because of what, it's established, it's an established theory, you can look it up. | ||
So, yeah, so it's that there was some sort of Nuclear war, some sort of war between Earth and Mars, which we used to be like heavily colonized. | ||
unidentified
|
And that's why Mars looks the way it does now. | |
When did you hear about this? | ||
When did I hear about that? | ||
I think I was in a YouTube rabbit hole at three in the morning. | ||
A long time ago? | ||
No. | ||
Because this is from Newsweek, March 22nd. | ||
Viral Mars conspiracy theory video claims humans lived on Mars and destroyed it. | ||
There it is. | ||
YouTube rabbit holes. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
So you can go ahead and read that. | ||
That is that was interesting. | ||
A video in which a TikTok user claims humans once lived on Mars but rendered it uninhabitable in a nuclear war has gone viral. | ||
Thanks, Newsweek! | ||
It's the news that's fit to print. | ||
unidentified
|
Thanks, Newsweek. | |
The false but entertaining... The false. | ||
Thanks for letting me know it's false. | ||
unidentified
|
Cool, yeah. | |
But entertaining theory also states this war would have caused a nuclear winter, which is responsible for Mars' popular red color. | ||
Iron? | ||
unidentified
|
What? | |
I don't think so. | ||
It has currently been liked more than 230,000 times and shared nearly 10,000 times. | ||
It's not even that many shares. | ||
I know. | ||
I didn't nothing. | ||
I didn't like it or share it. | ||
I just read it. | ||
I think that it has been watched 979,000 times. | ||
That was from our video with Alex Jones has double the views on this. | ||
This is not this is there. | ||
Someone was bored. | ||
This is the stuff that that comes up when everybody else is shadow banned. | ||
I wonder if people used to live on Venus. | ||
You guys ever think about that? | ||
Wait, wait, I'm sorry, I gotta read this. | ||
The theory, explained by user Crackhead Joe Dirt, so you know it's verified, was put forward in response to the question, what's a conspiracy theory that absolutely blows your mind? | ||
Crackhead Joe Dirt states, Mars isn't naturally red. | ||
Want to know what can cause a planet to turn red and change after a couple million years? | ||
If enough nukes were to go off on a planet, the first thing that would happen is a nuclear winter. | ||
Nuclear winter is the aftermath of nuclear blasts, causing ash that is so thick it blocks out the sun. | ||
Nuclear winters can last anywhere from a hundred years and a thousand, depending on how much ash is in the atmosphere. | ||
After all the natural resources are drained up from the nuclear winter, the planet turns red from dust. | ||
My theory is that we've come from Mars after we drained all its natural resources and destroyed it with nuclear bombs. | ||
That is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. | ||
The red color is iron. | ||
That was very weirdly worded. | ||
After the resources are drained up, what the heck does that mean? | ||
It turns to red dust. | ||
Venus makes way more sense. | ||
Not Mars. | ||
No, Venus for sure, because the sun's expanding slowly. | ||
So it used to not be so hot on Venus. | ||
unidentified
|
Well, no. | |
Venus is hot because of a greenhouse effect. | ||
They thought there were all these cometary impacts on Venus. | ||
It turns out they're like explosives from the inside. | ||
Like it cooked so hot that it blew out all this goo outside of itself. | ||
And there's all these like explosive holes where it's insides blew out. | ||
unidentified
|
Hold on. | |
You know, let me tell you a better conspiracy theory. | ||
Mars makes no sense because Mars is too small. | ||
It has no magnetosphere, as my understanding, so it can't maintain an atmosphere. | ||
So the solar radiation just rips away the particles and blasts them off the planet. | ||
So we can't terraform it if we wanted to. | ||
It's the oceans that cause the field. | ||
Unless I guess, no, it's the iron core. | ||
It's partly, ocean contributes a lot to it. | ||
So I guess what we would need to do is, like, drill to the center of Mars and then get, like, Ben Affleck and the gang to launch those nukes in sequential order, like in that movie. | ||
Let me get in. | ||
I'll tell you what's better. | ||
This is sad, okay? | ||
Look, I'm sorry, Crackhead Joe Dirt, I appreciate your attempt, but let me school you for a second. | ||
Humans started on Venus, and Venus was Earth-like. | ||
But a runaway greenhouse effect from mass consumption and carbon emissions resulted in global warming. | ||
And the pollution started creating acid rain, the ocean levels started rising, and then once the Venetian, whatever, Venus military of one country realized what was happening, they created the Ark Project. | ||
Where they took the DNA samples from as many animals and species as possible and put it onto a giant space vessel called the Ark that would ferry as many people as possible and many animals and creatures to Earth to get here because Venus was being destroyed. | ||
So they flee and then the Ark Project comes and the great flood sweeps over Venus It might explain octopuses. | ||
from global warming and then they land on earth and then what do we see in the | ||
fossil record the pre-cambrian explosion all of a sudden around the same time the fossil record just boom tons of | ||
different animals why because the Ark project dropped a bunch of the critters and | ||
then they started populating and then all started dying around the same time | ||
so now they appear in the fossil record as this great unexplainable | ||
elite I don't actually believe that but come on let's be real it's a way | ||
better conspiracy theory than Mars it might explain octopuses we don't know | ||
they look like the brain and stem creature inside our bodies | ||
And there's like weird DNA stuff and there's just, they don't make sense for Earth. | ||
This looks like a jungle planet that got superheated. | ||
It really looks like it used to be a jungle planet. | ||
We landed a drone there and it got, I think the Russians did, and it got crushed and just like melted or something. | ||
Yeah, I was watching this video where they claimed that we could make floating cities on Venus because the gases are so dense that we could make like floating platforms on gas. | ||
Just heated by like the geothermal heat from underneath? | ||
I think it's just a hot planet. | ||
Wow, that's a lot of energy potential to boil water. | ||
Yeah, well, you know. | ||
We're on Earth. | ||
We'd go to Mars, but Mars can't sustain an atmosphere, is my understanding. | ||
So what do we do? | ||
We're just trapped on Earth. | ||
You all know what's really scary. | ||
You all know the scariest thing. | ||
unidentified
|
Europa. | |
The universe is expanding, right? | ||
So eventually, on Earth, once the universe expands to a certain point, you won't actually | ||
be able to see any stars or planets or galaxies or anything. | ||
Because they'll be so far away that light traveling towards us is just, doesn't reach | ||
us anymore. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
So there are going to be potentially creatures on this Earth, maybe, in a certain amount | ||
of time, they're born into existence and they look up at the black sky and they see nothing | ||
and they think, there's nothing. | ||
So are we just getting prepped for that with all this light pollution? | ||
No, look, we can look at the stars and we understand the universe exists because we can see the light that has reached us. | ||
But if the universe expands too, if it keeps expanding, eventually it'll be too far away for us to even see because the light will never reach us. | ||
All they'll have is our records and the teachers will teach the records until the records become racist and they're not allowed to teach them anymore. | ||
It'll be magic to them. | ||
They'll be like, we know it doesn't exist because you can look out, there's nothing there. | ||
It was a bunch of dreams and hallucinations of these people. | ||
But here's the thing. | ||
If you can't see the stars, you can't conceptualize the concept of outer space and stars. | ||
You'd have to take it on faith. | ||
No, but the concept wouldn't exist. | ||
What if there was something where like, you know, interdimensional elves would randomly appear and then one day, you know, a thousand years ago, they all died off? | ||
So it would come out like... Plus, leprechauns don't exist. | ||
Yeah, it would become a myth. | ||
Right, right. | ||
Like, you know, way distant out there, there are these things called stars and, you know, eventually it would fade into... | ||
And they would make movies about, like, stars coming to Earth and, like, giving people magic powers because they wouldn't understand what it actually was. | ||
I think the universe is rubberbanding. | ||
So it is accelerating now and it's getting bigger faster, but it will eventually slow back down and start to come back together and then pop again. | ||
That's called Big Crunch Theory and it was disproven a long, long time ago. | ||
I think there's a lot of those happening, like popcorning all over the multiverse. | ||
They initially, we had solid state theory. | ||
Do you know what solid state theory is? | ||
The universe is and has always been. | ||
Then we had eventually Big Bang, the Big Bang theory that the universe is expanding. | ||
And from that we had a lot of people theorize something called the Big Crunch. | ||
That if the energy is being pushed out at a certain point, could it start coming back in? | ||
A better way to explain it is if gravity attracts, wouldn't at a certain point everything condense into singularities and then all start moving back towards each other? | ||
Wasn't Stephen Hawking? | ||
That was disproven. | ||
Wasn't he one of the ones that disproved? | ||
Didn't he, he thought everything was shrinking and he like wrote a whole thesis on it. | ||
And then he's like, now I'm going to disprove my own theory. | ||
And he wrote a whole thesis on how it's expanding. | ||
Yeah, so basically where we're at now is that the universe is actually accelerating faster and faster and faster as if the ball is rolling down the hill. | ||
At no point will the ball just stop and then roll back up the hill. | ||
Well, if it goes down and then goes back up and then back down and back up, you might start to see it. | ||
Because gravity's actually a pressure, it's pushing. | ||
It's not a pulling force, it's a pushing force. | ||
So it's possible that things are being expelled into a universe that's actually trying to push them back, but they're still in a rate of acceleration and will eventually be pushed back together. | ||
So I guess it is still a hypothesis. | ||
When you look it up, they just basically say it's a hypothesis. | ||
That's good. | ||
There's something called the Big Bounce. | ||
Propose that it keeps going back and forth. | ||
The Big Bang, Big Crunch, Big Bang, Big Crunch. | ||
That's interesting. | ||
Big Bounce is. | ||
Yeah, Big Bounce. | ||
Hey, regarding what we were talking about earlier, I think the CIA has given us disinformation. | ||
I think that's just rampant what the CIA does. | ||
You think that they're giving it just to distract us and keep us like talking about aliens while they do their dirty work? | ||
Yes, and some of them maybe are truly deluded and making crazy theories or they did hear from a friend something. | ||
I don't trust like hidden sources. | ||
Well, I know one of the sources that red flagged me was the John Brennan. | ||
Yes. | ||
What happened? | ||
In the article, it said, John Brennan says that we're stupid to think or arrogant to think that we're the only species. | ||
As soon as they quoted John Brennan, I'm like, John Brennan is just dirty, swampy. | ||
I love John Brennan. | ||
unidentified
|
Me too! | |
You know what I would love? | ||
You know what would be like the best evening ever? | ||
What? | ||
Bezos, Zuckerberg, Brennan, you know, just hanging out. | ||
Barack Obama. | ||
Just all these heroes. | ||
That'd be awesome. | ||
Bill Gates. | ||
In a sauna. | ||
So it's hot. | ||
Actually, you know what would be really great? | ||
What? | ||
In a sauna with Brennan, Bill Gates, Zuckerberg, Bezos, and Alex Jones. | ||
Oh, that might actually be fun. | ||
Yeah. | ||
You have to wear like a shield though, because you'd go off. | ||
I'd pay for that. | ||
I'd like to be in this sauna at this time. | ||
Well, whatever this conversation is begins. | ||
Buckets of cold water. | ||
I'd watch it on pay-per-view. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Paper view. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Put a GoPro in there. | ||

We were just sitting there watching them do chicken stuff. | ||
The chickens are at the age where they're jumping on top of their houses. | ||
A couple of them are. | ||
And it's like, wait, what are you doing? | ||
What are you doing, chicken? | ||

And they just stand there. | ||
unidentified

Awesome. | ||
unidentified
|
Yes. | |
Yeah. | ||

I was not really around for their childhood. | ||
The chickens? | ||

They grow up so fast. | ||
Maybe they'll remember me. | ||
unidentified
|
All right. | |
Lester Leo says Trump promised to build 1,000 miles of wall in eight years. | ||
450 miles of walls were built before he left the left house. | ||
Interesting. | ||
He was on schedule. | ||
Yeah. | ||
So that was on schedule, right? | ||
Yeah. | ||
Right on schedule. | ||
Yep. | ||
He fulfilled a promise, I guess. | ||
I mean, he did that in four years. | ||
Yep. | ||
He wasn't as bad as they made him out to be. | ||
No. | ||
unidentified
|
God, no. | |
Oh, my God. | ||
Jose Pereira says it's not a wall. | ||
It's a it's a tall, large, tall structure that separates boundaries. | ||

Influx. | ||
More clarification. | ||
Not a serial killer says supporter since the beginning been following Tim since Wall Street Please shout out my man Brent's comic take the monkey and run on Kickstarter. | ||
Oh, there you go Take the monkey and run on Kickstarter. | ||
Mm-hmm All right the lukewarm gamer says do you think the fall of comics as the go woke has as they go woke has anything to do with anime and manga are getting more popular in the West as They're not woke Probably. | ||
I definitely think so. | ||
What do I want to watch? | ||
Woke Captain America complaining about bigotry? | ||
Or, like, some dude who's a pirate and, like, can punch dudes from really far away and another guy who's, like, a swords guy with a sword in his mouth and he's, like, cutting people with it? | ||
Attack on Titan's pretty weird, too. | ||
I don't know, like, people turn into giant monsters or something. | ||
My daughter got me, uh, watching this anime, uh, uh, Something Neverland. | ||
Somebody knows what it's called. | ||
unidentified
|
I don't know. | |
The Something Neverlands, someone will say it. | ||
It's about these orphans who all live with this, you know, woman. | ||
And she's sending them out to be adopted. | ||
And they love her. | ||
They call her mom. | ||
And apparently she's sending them to monsters. | ||
To be eaten? | ||
To be eaten? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
So then they find out about it, so now they have to escape. | ||
But I'm like, the promise never land, the promise never land. | ||
Isn't that infinitely more interesting than Captain America being like, are you a racist? | ||
Yeah. | ||
See, I'd rather watch that with my daughter than have her... Did you guys ever see Stan Lee's Superhumans? | ||
unidentified
|
No. | |
He started a show where he would go around earth and look for people with real, like one guy could like magnetically stick pans to his head. | ||
One guy could like put bison to sleep with his energy. | ||
He had this like contortionist guy was the host. | ||
I mean, that's Stan Lee. | ||
He, he got tired of the bull of the crap and was like, I'm finding real superhuman people, which of which there are special. | ||
That's a big loss. | ||
Like it's super hot and like cause steam off their wet shirts and stuff. | ||
Yeah, we got the political commentator says, shout out to Josie. | ||
She's awesome. | ||
And I for one, I'm proud that she isn't party approved. | ||
Much of the Libertarian Party now is a joke. | ||
Unfortunately, if you're a real libertarian, she's the one you got to follow. | ||
That's true. | ||
Which which who said that? | ||
The political commentator. | ||
The political commentator. | ||
Yes, we follow each other. | ||
There you go. | ||
Aw, thank you! | ||
Aaron says, this is for Ian. | ||
I know you're not crazy about having kids, but if you asexually reproduce, you should name your son Lil' Ian and your daughter Lillian. | ||
Oh, Lillian! | ||
That's clever! | ||
Yeah, I think I did see Ian the other day budding. | ||
Yeah, he was. | ||
He was kind of budding a little bit. | ||
I'm into it. | ||
It was just coming and then it fell off his arm and then eventually grew legs and ran off. | ||
I think that we are fungus that ate other fungus. | ||
Like what happened was in the tide pool, there was all this plant matter and then there were all this fungus and some of the fungus ate plant matter and stayed fungus. | ||
Some of the fungus ate other fungus and became animal. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh. | |
Why do you think that? | ||
Because I'm crazy. | ||
Totally crazy. | ||
I'm just using logic. | ||
All right, I'll accept that explanation. | ||
Too much fungus. | ||
All right, so Super for Education says alpha and beta particles are also ionizing radiation, not just gamma rays. | ||
Ah, okay. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
All right, let's see. | ||
Bobby Lane says, Tim, please look into the EPA's plan to ban modified cars, even if for use on racetracks. | ||
If there are any car enthusiasts, please sign the RPM Act that SEMA is putting together. | ||
Interesting. | ||
unidentified
|
All right. | |
Well, let's see. | ||
What is this? | ||
Gerg C says, Tim, congratulations on being around such beautiful people. | ||
Please be careful when purchasing land in the future. | ||
Make sure the land you purchase includes the mineral rights. | ||
Oh, I know all about that. | ||
Oh yeah. | ||
Yeah. | ||
A lot of land in rural areas, they've already sold the mineral rights and they try to sell you surface rights. | ||
And all of a sudden, one day some guy shows up with a bulldozer and he's like, I got the contract. | ||
I own what's underneath. | ||
Yeah. | ||
And then there's like restrictions on like, you have to allow them certain access and oh, so dumb. | ||
Alright, let's see. | ||
That sounds fun. | ||
I definitely want to fund that too, so... Some urban explorers going around to old abandoned stuff. | ||
Past tense. | ||
Crazy how close this two part episode is to reality now and in the near future. | ||
Realm explore haunted, abandoned and exploration videos. | ||
That sounds fun. | ||
I definitely want to fund that too. | ||
So some urban explorers going around to old abandoned stuff. | ||
I think one of the things we want to do is we talked about doing the paranormal | ||
podcast, but I think I want to get someone to go around, explore the monsters of West | ||
Virginia because there's a bunch, there's like mothman, like Sasquatch. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Yeah, I remember the Mothman. | ||
Yeah, I do I was watching this show on travel channel the other day It was like the scariest places in the US or something And they did this really funny thing where they would | ||
interview someone in broad daylight and it was really not scary at all, but they would hold the | ||
camera at an angle, point it upwards, and then do something called feathering where it | ||
makes the rim around them look dark, and then they would just drop the brightness so it looks | ||
dark out and the camera's at an angle and point it up and then they would put eerie music | ||
unidentified
|
and I'm like, it works! | |
So it's like a guy standing in the forest like, uh, my dog went outside and like, he got eaten by something. | ||
And then it's like the cameras and angles going like, and I'm like, this is crazy, man. | ||
There's this dude named Bradley Garrett. | ||
You can follow him on Twitter at Goblin Merchant. | ||
He's been on Rogan before and he's an urban explorer. | ||
He has written books about it. | ||
He would go under London, like deep under London. | ||
There's different lairs. | ||
Oh yeah, they got like a throne of skulls or something. | ||
Yeah, catacombs all over the place, man. | ||
Did you want to hear crazy stories? | ||
So I've been to the catacombs in France because they have like a tour. | ||
You go down and you go into this one approved area and there's just like dead people, skulls and bones all over the place. | ||
But you can actually go down deeper. | ||
I think what happened was in Italy, they needed a place to like get rid of bodies so they built catacombs, right? | ||
There was a party some college kids were having and they went down into like a very like not far in part of the catacombs, right? | ||
They were like in the beginning, I guess you could call it. | ||
And some girl went to go take a leak And so she went around the corner, took a leak, and then forgot how she got there, took a wrong turn, they found her weeks later starved to death, dehydrated, just dead in the catacombs because it's miles she got lost. | ||
Oh my god. | ||
Yup. | ||
Oh my gosh, what a nightmare. | ||
The catacombs, has there been a movie made? | ||
Could you imagine? | ||
What a place to die. | ||
Being lost in this mystery and the panic takes over and the darkness. | ||
You're just surrounded by dead bodies. | ||
Oh my gosh. | ||
No reception. | ||
Why would you do that? | ||
unidentified
|
That's crazy. | |
Probably drunk. | ||
Yup, she was drunk. | ||
She was drunk and she took the wrong turn and then one wrong turn and you're gone. | ||
And they were like, she's gone. | ||
Two weeks later they went and found her and she was just dead of dehydration I guess. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Oh no. | ||
unidentified
|
Dude, that's horrifically awesome. | |
James Harrelson says the Portland firebomber who was just indicted for last summer's terror riots, he is from Indiana and his name is Malik Mohammed, maybe Nation of Islam, just like the Capitol Hill barricade guy who also is from Indiana. | ||
I got my tinfoil on, Tim. | ||
Well, speaking of tinfoil, if you haven't smashed the like button, one thing you can do is go to TimCast.com and click shop, because we have the limited edition tinfoil gorilla available. | ||
It's very much the same as the regular I Am A Gorilla shirt, but he's wearing a tinfoil hat, and the I Am A Gorilla is written in black letters instead of white letters. | ||
I think this one will only be up for a little while, and then we'll eventually take it down, because it was just a special edition. | ||
Same thing is true for the Diamond Hands gorilla, which is, we got that one right there. | ||
Yeah, that's where he's the Wall Street guy. | ||
He's got a cigar, and he's holding, you know, stacks of cash. | ||
This one's a misprint. | ||
It's a little too dark. | ||
Yeah, this is misprinted. | ||
It's a little too dark, but it's okay. | ||
You can see he's got the cigar. | ||
I like, he looks so happy. | ||
unidentified
|
He is. | |
He's got, he's a diamond hands gorilla, man. | ||
That guy is a character waiting to be fleshed out. | ||
We should make a show about he's a gorilla who goes around telling people to enjoy life. | ||
Gorilla tactics. | ||
He's going to be a psychic gorilla who tells people how to improve their lives and offers them self-help and tells them to be responsible for themselves. | ||
And he can like smash stuff like a superhero. | ||
Yeah. | ||
I'd already read this before I'd read The Red Skull. | ||
And he meets parody versions of Captain America and explains to him that he's got to allow people to explore ideas and be free. | ||
That everyone he doesn't like is not a racist. | ||
Right, exactly. | ||
He lived in a cage until he was like 16 and someone let him out of his cage and so ever since he wants to give back. | ||
He's inspirational. | ||
He lived in a cage but what happened was he gained his superpowers because while he was in the cage in the dark he began meditating and through the power of meditation he gained enlightenment And then started levitating in his cage, and when they found him, the cage had already dematerialized and he floated out into the sun. | ||
He developed connection to alien races through the meditation. | ||
Interdimensional aliens. | ||
unidentified
|
Through the DMT network. | |
Wait, that's a better idea! | ||
Let's make a superhero comic about a gorilla who took DMT. | ||
He didn't know where he was getting it, but he was eating acacia plants. | ||
A regular gorilla walking around, and it's just, like, really boring-looking. | ||
And then he just, like, stumbles over, sits down, and eats ayahuasca. | ||
We can make a group of gorilla superheroes. | ||
One of them could be... Yes. | ||
Both, I'm sorry. | ||
Let's not stop there. | ||
I am here for this content. | ||
A gorilla is minding his own business. | ||
Meanwhile, a podcast host is on a trip in Africa and drops DMT, not realizing it, and the gorilla finds it and takes it. | ||
And then his mind just goes whoosh. | ||
And then he gains access to the interdimensional network and the elves endow him with super intelligence and psychic powers. | ||
Well, no, there's a problem with this. | ||
unidentified
|
What's that? | |
What's that? | ||
Because that's the start of Curious George, and it was deemed racist because the white man. | ||
The man in the yellow hat? | ||
The man in the yellow hat. | ||
Ted. | ||
Ted gave Curious George DMT. | ||
No, Ted gave him purpose. | ||
Yeah. | ||
So this is offensive now. | ||
And VR goggles. | ||
Have you seen the video of the monkey with the VR goggles? | ||
I have not. | ||
Some people say it's animal abuse, but the monkey's like going crazy. | ||
Kind of a cool way. | ||
The monkey's like all about this. | ||
How's he going crazy? | ||
He's just like... | ||
I thought you were going to say, like, he was trying to climb the walls or something. | ||
He's freaking out. | ||
Okay. | ||
Awesome. | ||
All right. | ||
Vegas girl says, Tim, you should have Donald Trump on as a guest. | ||
Yes. | ||
The problem is Trump would instantly get us banned because they literally banned Trump. | ||
Needs a voice disguiser. | ||
Yeah. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
And it'll clearly be Trump. | ||
We'll pixelate his face. | ||
unidentified
|
And he's talking like this. | |
Look, I'll tell you what happened in this election. | ||
The radical left, the radical left. | ||
We know who that is, right? | ||
Facebook is like, can we ban him? | ||
What if we put on Facebook, it was clearly not Trump, but we claimed it was, would they ban us? | ||
That'd be funny. | ||
Like if it was just a silhouette of a guy who looks like Trump doing the same thing with hands. | ||
Yeah, the algorithms would ban you. | ||
Have you seen the Trump playing the accordion videos? | ||
Yes, I have. | ||
I love them. | ||
They're the best thing in the world. | ||
He's going like this all the time. | ||
I love it. | ||
It's so much boring now with Biden. | ||
I guess we can make fun of his speech impediment or something. | ||
No, that's just sad. | ||
Well, they have... I mean, SNL is trash, but they have some... I love SNL. | ||
Thank you for clarifying. | ||
Yeah, I love them. | ||
But they have, you know, some impersonators on there, but they're always trying to give it, like, a cute spin to how nice he is, you know? | ||
unidentified
|
Like, instead of, like, calling out the... Non-political SNL star. | |
But David Carvey actually did a good impression of him. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Yeah. | ||
unidentified
|
It wasn't. | |
It was just on an interview. | ||
It wasn't. | ||
You know, the worst was Alec Baldwin. | ||
It's like he wasn't even Trump. | ||
I don't understand what he was impersonating. | ||
It was impersonating the idea. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
Yeah. | ||
So people would actually watch Trump. | ||
It was the caricature that they were impersonating. | ||
Remember that Trump movie that came out like eight months ago? | ||
It got all this attention for like a week and then just disappeared. | ||
Trump movie? | ||
Yeah, it was a movie about Trump. | ||
And like some famous guy portrayed Trump. | ||
Oh, um. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh, yeah, yeah. | |
Really? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
And it made him look all vile. | ||
It was like soft core adult stuff, yes. | ||
unidentified
|
What? | |
Like, yeah, OK, so it was like left-wing revenge fantasies. | ||
We got to read some more of these Superchats. | ||
We got Bobby Bob says we were told the Patriot Act was for our own good and safety and is needed. | ||
Sure. | ||
Look at what it's got us. | ||
And in the Middle East, they say the same thing about covid passports. | ||
Dude, I'm not I'm not down for Patriot Act BS and stuff. | ||
Yeah, it's called Patriot. | ||
Adam Collins says, Tim, I live in Maryland and I just renewed my license to get the real ID. | ||
I had to use my voter ID as identification. | ||
Just thought you would like to know, huh? | ||
It's double racist, huh? | ||
PunkRockFox says, I live in Dearborn, Michigan. | ||
Best food. | ||
The east side is Lebanese while the south is Yemeni. | ||
There are cultural issues between the two Arab groups. | ||
Lebanese assimilate while the Yemeni do not. | ||
Interesting. | ||
Yeah, thank you for clarifying that. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Brian Schink says, shout out to my podcast, Shooting the Dirt. | ||
Is it a gun podcast? | ||
unidentified
|
Mm-hmm. | |
Don't do that. | ||
Zachary Kale says, it's very important you understand something. | ||
I have extensive experience with fentanyl. | ||
What you need to understand is how you take F when you bite on the street. | ||
It's so easy to OD. | ||
I'll tweet to Ian the specifics. | ||
Love you, redheaded libertarian. | ||
Aww, I love you. | ||
TheGaelicBat says, Tim, I'm surprised you didn't mention April 5th as First Contact Day. | ||
I thought you were a Trekkie. | ||
unidentified
|
Tsk, tsk. | |
Big fan of the show. | ||
Also free the code. | ||
I said it was Trump Day, and so here's what I did. | ||
I tweeted, today is 4-5, which will forever be known as Trump Day in honor of the 45th president. | ||
It got like 2,300 retweets. | ||
Everyone's laughing and a bunch of lefties are like, no! | ||
And then the next day, Then today I tweeted, today is 4-6, which will be forever known as Biden Day in honor of the 46th president. | ||
Tomorrow is Kamala Day. | ||
unidentified
|
No! | |
I was like, no! | ||
Some people got it and they were like, that was an excellent setup. | ||
Because I quoted the other day, like, that was a thing I was doing because, you know, Kamala Day is tomorrow. | ||
So they're saying in Star Trek lore 4-5 is the day that Zephyr and Cochran's warp drive caused the Vulcans to notice Earth and come here. | ||
Yeah. | ||
After a nuclear war and then authoritarianism, and then the police were being, were given drugs. | ||
Star Trek lore is crazy, man. | ||
Police were given drugs for what? | ||
Yeah, so there was like a period in Star Trek history where on Earth, everything was very authoritarian, and the cops would have these drug things that they would just like- Oh, like super soldier type. | ||
I think it was more like narcotics. | ||
Yeah, I could be wrong. | ||
But there's an episode in The Next Generation where Q is wearing this like, police riot uniform with drugs on it, talking about the pathetic history of Earth or whatever. | ||
Wow. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
TNG is amazing, man. | ||
Yeah, really. | ||
That's why I haven't got into D-Space 9, because it was so good, I don't want to tank. | ||
I mean, D-Space 9 is good. | ||
Really. | ||
Yeah, dude, D-Space 9 is great! | ||
The Dominion War, come on! | ||
Voyager's okay, you know. | ||
I saw the first one. | ||
I like Janeway. | ||
Enterprise, because I like Scott Bakula so much. | ||
I thought Janeway was a good captain. | ||
I guess a lot of people didn't like her. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
But, you know, the next generation is the best. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Can't argue with that. | ||
One Patriot says Jordan Peterson is a hero. | ||
He saved more lives than BLM ever will. | ||
He inspires millions to face their shadows and become their best self, which terrifies leftists because they want people to stay in the victim mindset. | ||
Dude, for real, man. | ||
I was in such a dark place in 2016. | ||
I said Jordan Peterson is a threat because of what he speaks. | ||
He's great. | ||
Chris DeLuca says, legit the best would have ever had was a taco truck run by a woman who spoke no English. | ||
I spoke no Spanish. | ||
Google translate for the win. | ||
Best food ever. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Nice. | ||
Yeah, man. | ||
I mean, you grow up in certain places and you'll pick up bits of different languages. | ||
I mean, especially in any major city. | ||
In New York, you're probably going to learn some Spanish and there's tons of people speak different languages. | ||
You'll probably pick stuff up. | ||
That's a great American melting pot, man. | ||
Julie Simone says, I support legal immigration and agree with Ian. | ||
People should be able to speak the language, especially working in public service. | ||
Taxpayers shouldn't have to struggle to communicate with a person at the post office in California. | ||
Shaking my head. | ||
Good point. | ||
All right, let's see. | ||
We got too many super chats. | ||
We have so many. | ||
Joseph Henson says the fact that Anne McCaffrey gets ignored says it all for these movie companies. | ||
Writers have been getting worse since the strike everyone forgot about because some people did something. | ||
unidentified
|
Interesting. | |
Who's Anne McCaffrey? | ||
Yeah, I don't know who's that. | ||
I'm not sure. | ||
I do remember the strike, though. | ||
What is it? | ||
The writers all went on a strike. | ||
Yeah, and it killed a bunch of shows. | ||
It made them all crazy. | ||
Yeah, I think Lost was happening in that time, so there was like one season of Lost. | ||
It might be season four. | ||
That's just trash. | ||
It doesn't make any sense. | ||
Yeah, I remember that. | ||
All right, let's see. | ||
Brandon Gilmour says, been listening for a little over a year now. | ||
Love the channel. | ||
Can I get a shout out for my band, Under the Gallows? | ||
We just released a new song. | ||
A few new songs. | ||
Oh, excellent. | ||
Good job. | ||
Great. | ||
Josh says, I am a gorilla. | ||
Glad to hear it, Josh. | ||
Jalapeno Ketchup says, so awesome to see Josie on, but I hope Figaro is getting his dinner on time tonight. | ||
Who is it? | ||
Who's Figaro? | ||
Figaro is my tuxedo cat. | ||
He's a Norwegian forest cat, so he's big, and he's fluffy, and he's friendly, and he's more popular than I am. | ||
I like those cats. | ||
Those long hair. | ||
I love those cats. | ||
Long hair, big. | ||
He's amazing. | ||
So cute. | ||
Will Beasley says, Luke went out for a pack of cigarettes and never came back. | ||
Sad. | ||
Yeah, I was sitting here and he was like, I'm gonna run up to the gas station, get some cigarettes. | ||
You need anything? | ||
And I was like, just a host for the show. | ||
I was like, yeah, just a co-host. | ||
He was like, all right, I'll see you in a few minutes. | ||
And that was it. | ||
He was gone. | ||
So betrayed. | ||
I'll never recover. | ||
Just a co-host. | ||
Luke actually did, he came out to hang out. | ||
He wasn't planning on coming on the show. | ||
Yeah. | ||
He was going to be really three days. | ||
And we're like, I'll just come hang out on the way. | ||
And then I forgot what happened. | ||
Someone canceled, I guess. | ||
And I was like, Hey Luke, we had a cancellation. | ||
You want to come on the show? | ||
And he was like, I don't know. | ||
I'm like being tied down. | ||
No, no, just, it was for one night. | ||
And he was like, I don't know if I want to do it. | ||
And then I was like, it's one night, dude. | ||
We'll do the show. | ||
I was like, all right, cool. | ||
And then we did the show. | ||
And then I was like, well, you're still here. | ||
Why don't you just come on again? | ||
And then all of a sudden he was on every single show for like two months. | ||
The audience loves Luke. | ||
Yeah, Luke's a good dude. | ||
Most people love Luke. | ||
Oh, yeah. | ||
Let's see. | ||
88 Games says, Tim, you've basically explained the plot of Gundam Wing with Space Colony War. | ||
Hey, oh, there you go. | ||
Oh, this is interesting. | ||
Ryan Burkabyle says, tap one land, create 1-1 Squirtle token. | ||
Pretty powerful land. | ||
I love it. | ||
That's a very powerful land. | ||
Candelabra of Taunos much? | ||
unidentified
|
What? | |
That untaps lands. | ||
Yeah, but you can only use it one time. | ||
Yeah, it is. | ||
You can probably break that, though. | ||
Make a bunch of squirrels. | ||
What could you use to repeatedly untap? | ||
Well, you got your Instill Energy. | ||
I'm old school. | ||
Do you got anything that could sacrifice a creature to untap a land? | ||
Adam's deck, basically. | ||
Untap unlimited lands. | ||
Then you can just tap the land infinitely. | ||
Untap a land, draw a card. | ||
We'll be talking about Magic the Gathering. | ||
SB says, Tim, check out the DS9 episode, Tribunal. | ||
O'Brien experiences the Cardassian justice system. | ||
Propaganda and predetermined verdicts. | ||
Very topical now. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, dude. | |
Excellent show. | ||
NovaZero says, wrong! | ||
51% attack is crap. | ||
Government buying into only strengthens crypto. | ||
Get a SME. | ||
There is the tech, the infrastructure, and the market. | ||
Don't recklessly lump them together. | ||
Andreas Antonopoulos is my recommendation. | ||
He's a Bitcoin. | ||
He's a big-time Bitcoin guy. | ||
unidentified
|
All right. | |
Well, there you go. | ||
Andrea Rojas says, Hi Tim and team. | ||
Will you guys ever go on tour? | ||
Have a live show with audience. | ||
I think it would be awesome. | ||
Thank you for all you guys do. | ||
We have a 40 foot fifth wheel trailer because Luke convinced us to get one. | ||
And the idea is that we can actually have this studio set up in an RV. | ||
The plan is to drive out one weekend to like Nashville, do shows there all week, and then Friday night do a live show at a venue, then drive to Austin. | ||
Same thing. | ||
Then back to Nashville, then back home. | ||
Probably other... That's the first idea we have. | ||
There's just so much insane stuff happening in so many meetings that it's very, very difficult to actually do anything. | ||
And I, like... I don't got a lot of time. | ||
So, I'm actually... We have, like, three big projects. | ||
For one, the creative enterprise that is gonna be TimCast.com. | ||
So I am talking with some people about producing a pilot for a show and then maybe having an exclusive comedy show. | ||
Like, full TV show! | ||
Legit! | ||
On TimCast.com. | ||
Then we're also going to be hiring news editors, writers, and I said I was going to be doing this fact-checking thing where we rate news organizations, and that's a project. | ||
And the third most important thing is the Fediverse open-source subscription service plugin for people's websites. | ||
That's, to me, a huge priority. | ||
Yeah, I heard that the center browser type way of going is not necessarily the best. | ||
Sometimes I just hear from one person, but apparently that's dangerous because it puts a lot of stress on the company. | ||
An app, open source, free for everybody, that you put on your website, and it creates a subscription service. | ||
Super easy. | ||
Whether we're involved or not, it's gonna happen, so let's do it. | ||
I wanna do it! | ||
The idea is then, you don't need Patreon, you don't need any of these services, you'll just need your financial service provider, if you're running a business, maybe go to a bank, get a merchant account, or you use one of these existing financial services online, and then, all you gotta do is plug in, and people can sign up, and then on the first of every month, Whoever is using this open source stuff, you'll see your charge go to all your favorite creators on their websites, so you're a member of their sites instead of being a member to like Disney or whatever. | ||
So then you're getting a big, you know, a big plethora of, you're getting a plethora of content. | ||
We work with minds when we were building our sorting mechanism. | ||
We, you basically, you'd be subscribed if you're subscribed to, or you can see everyone. | ||
At some way, but then you can filter out words in addition to the things you want to see like what's trending hashtag | ||
this You can pick specific words that you want to not ever show | ||
up in your feed So we could do something like that too for search | ||
algorithms I mean the idea I guess is not only can you have your own | ||
subscription service that no one can ban you from People can donate monthly to your website to get access to | ||
your content. So your own private patreon, I guess But it also networks all the other websites | ||
So if you look at Discover, you'll see Ian's website, you'll see my website, you'll see Josie's website. | ||
And so it creates the social networking aspect just through each individual website. | ||
And then we create a directory website, you know, a node, showing all the different... | ||
Like a torrent site. | ||
And basically you go there and you can see people posting things and you can follow certain channels | ||
But we don't host any of it just an API redirect So then no one can ban so they could come to us and be like | ||
you're hosting this guy's kind of we're not hosting it It's just showing you a directory of existing content like | ||
iTunes does with podcasts. That's the plan But it requires some know-how for the individual has to buy | ||
their own server space have their own domain and all that stuff | ||
All right, Tom's pants says Soviet scientist Anatoly | ||
Bagorski is the guy who took an accelerated proton to the gourd. | ||
His story is really sad, even though he lived. | ||
Yeah, didn't it like make him go crazy? | ||
Like it just messed his brain up in a crazy way? | ||
Yeah, an accelerated proton to the gourd. | ||
Yeah, that would be extreme brain damage. | ||
Some happen. | ||
I'll have to read more about it. | ||
Yeah, definitely. | ||
Let's see. | ||
Colo Blyson says, The Fermi Paradox says we've not found other life because we've studied less than zero point and then a bunch of zeros, 1% of the universe. | ||
There you go. | ||
unidentified
|
Mm-hmm. | |
Chris says, there is also accounts in the Sumerian texts that Sodom was the result of nukes. | ||
The ancient texts have an eerie sci-fi feel to it. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
What was that story where it's like, you know, I think it was like God said, don't look back or you'll turn to a pillar of salt or something. | ||
Sodom and Gomorrah. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh, was it? | |
Lot. | ||
Oh yeah. | ||
And so the ancient aliens people are like, it's a nuclear weapon and they're telling you to run because if you stop and turn back and watch, you'll get vaporized. | ||
The translation over generation for generation, it's you'll be turned to ash. | ||
You'll be disintegrated, turns into a pillar of salt. | ||
Oh. | ||
Were Sodom and Gomorrah next to each other? | ||
Were they near each other? | ||
I think they were close by. | ||
I heard that Gomorrah was on top of a salt mine. | ||
Oh, interesting. | ||
What's that gas that it's produced? | ||
Carbon monoxide? | ||
Yeah, yeah. | ||
No, it's flammable, whatever it is. | ||
Methane, maybe? | ||
Methane? | ||
Caused a giant explosion that destroyed the city. | ||
Interesting. | ||
And they thought it was God strengthening the ground. | ||
Oh, wow. | ||
And then somebody was like, yo, that dude was doing that other dude and that lady was doing that, those dudes too. | ||
And so like, then it blew up. | ||
I don't know, man, but it sounds to me like I was like, people were probably like, don't do that or God's going to strike you down. | ||
And then the place blew up. | ||
I mean, it's, it's a lot of like, you know, humans didn't understand what's happening. | ||
So they correlated what they could. | ||
Like some, they watched like some old guy who got bit by like a crab bit his butt, like, or snapped his butt. | ||
And so he's like shaking and dancing like crazy, like screaming in pain. | ||
And all they see is like, there's like this guy going like, and then a thunderstorm happens and they're like, rain dance. | ||
And the old guy's like, no, no, no, it was a crab. | ||
He like, you know, his pinch on my butt when I sat down and they're like, we saw this guy dance and then it rained, man. | ||
Rain powers. | ||
We saw a pattern. | ||
We had to go with it. | ||
That's right. | ||
I know exactly who that is. | ||
It's the whole thing. | ||
short Tim the leftism right the rightism left Ian what happened my vibration was focused | ||
on the Fed Lids yes amazing Josie I'm a little liberate little L libertarian and honey badger | ||
unidentified
|
there you go that's summarized I know exactly who that is the whole thing how do you feel | |
about breaking up the Federal Reserve Josie I think Ron Paul should do it with his bare | ||
hands and his baseball bat. | ||
All right. | ||
Richard Carlson says, did you snatch the Ark idea from Doom and combine it with the storyline of Titan AE? | ||
LOL. | ||
No, I'm talking about, um, like Noah's Ark. | ||
I'm just making a sci-fi version of it that a bunch of people had to build a giant ship to escape a giant flood and took two of each animal with them. | ||
And that's it. | ||
So Michael Brogan says, Tim, your Venus Ark project sounds like spoilers Horizon Zero Dawn, which would be awesome. | ||
Horizon Zero Dawn is amazing. | ||
It's an excellent video game. | ||
And it's similar. | ||
For those that aren't familiar, there's a self-replicating AI that is basically stripping out organic matter and turning it into machines. | ||
And they realize they can't stop it at this point. | ||
And it's going to wipe out all organic life on the planet. | ||
So instead of trying to save the planet, what they do is they bury in these big laboratories machines that will terraform the planet back after the original AI dies out, because there's no more matter left. | ||
Then they'll have the activation of a new AI that starts rebuilding. | ||
So there's robotic deer, like robotic bears, trying to recreate the ecosystem. | ||
And then machines start cloning humans, and then they're born, and then society emerges. | ||
And so they're all, like, very tribal, but they have, like, remnants of ancient technology. | ||
Love it. | ||
Yeah, it's crazy stuff. | ||
Good game. | ||
The game's fun, too. | ||
Really, really... What's really amazing about it, in my opinion, is that it's a new, unique gameplay where you got, like, a bow and arrow, but you're fighting robots. | ||
So how do you actually, like, take out a robot with a bow and arrow? | ||
Hitting key points and, like, breaking panels off and then damaging the, you know, critical components. | ||
It's a brilliant game. | ||
Really good stuff. | ||
I don't know for pitches. | ||
says Battlestar Galactica was called Adam's Ark. | ||
Very much like your theory. | ||
I want to help you make art and show what's a good email to reach you. | ||
Um, I don't know for pitches. | ||
We have jobs at TimCast.com, which is probably not the best, but it's probably the best for now. | ||
It's just really difficult to get to that point, to start taking on, you know, legit full pitches and stuff. | ||
So I guess you can try jobs at TimCast.com. | ||
Chad Duffy says, Hey Tim and Cast, I've been writing a comic and just found the money to pay an artist. | ||
I was wondering if I could send you guys my first comic. | ||
Love what you do. | ||
And thank you. | ||
Yes, at TimCast.com. | ||
I think in the contact section, there's a PO box. | ||
You can send whatever you'd like. | ||
Send us things so long as it's appropriate, I suppose. | ||
It goes to a mailbox. | ||
Interesting. | ||
goes to a mailbox. | ||
Austin Scott says the EPA has been raiding aftermarket car shops and finding vehicles | ||
that are track only. | ||
They may have no cats, but they pass emissions. | ||
See Lund Racing's YouTube video. | ||
Look into the RPM Act. | ||
It means so much. | ||
Interesting. | ||
Yeah, it's like I never heard about that. | ||
Frank Perez says Tim, you should have Alison Morrow on. | ||
She used to work for Network News and now does YouTube videos. | ||
Consider it. | ||
I will look into that individual. | ||
I'm not super familiar with her. | ||
Just Jenny says, shout out to Trevor. | ||
Hey, Trevor. | ||
We were pretty mean to you now, but we're cool. | ||
It's not personal. | ||
We're all friends. | ||
I love you, Trevor, actually. | ||
We're pals now. | ||
He can hang here. | ||
Daniel Rodriguez says, did everyone know that Tim skateboards? | ||
Now you do. | ||
You do? | ||
Wow. | ||
There was a funny, there was a funny thing on Twitter where someone was like, I bet Tim Paul doesn't even really skateboard, he probably just pretends. | ||
And I've got videos that have like, so my buddy Brett Novak, and I always, I always shout out his channel, it's YouTube.com slash Bradjic, and then he always matches me, messages me, because he's like, all of a sudden I saw a bunch of subscribers or something. | ||
What is it, YouTube.com slash what? | ||
Bradjic. | ||
B-R-A-G-I-C. | ||
So there's a bunch of videos. There's one from when I was 19. It's one of the first videos uploaded to YouTube. | ||
It's from like... It was recorded December of 2005 or something. | ||
And it's one of the first videos on YouTube, I guess. It's me skating in a warehouse. I'm like 19. | ||
And it did... It had a few thousand views. | ||
And then, because my name's at Tim Pool at Data Chicago Warehouse, now it has like half a million. | ||
I love that. | ||
It's just, it's a super old video that YouTube keeps recommending to people. | ||
What is time? | ||
Yeah, yeah, but then I have a couple clips from him that are like legit, like one's a nollie half hardflip lateflip, and one's a hang ten hardflip, and then at the end I do a hang ten hardflip lateflip, so it's all there. | ||
We actually did film one years ago, which was a full hang ten hardflip lateflip segment, but I, just too hard to do. | ||
It's like a legit hard trick. | ||
Not deep fake. | ||
No, legit. | ||
Yeah, real, real trick. | ||
Yeah, I got all the wacky tricks in the book. | ||
All the weird stuff. | ||
A lot of people don't want to play skate with me back in the day. | ||
unidentified
|
Why? | |
Because you're too good? | ||
Because I do, because like, everybody can do kickflip, nollie flip, switch flip, fakie flip. | ||
It's like all the basic tricks. | ||
And so I would watch people play skate and I would do like, I did a few of the S game of skate like back in the day, like competitions. | ||
And it would be like the person I'm up against is really good and he'd be like, I'm gonna do a pop shove it. | ||
Now I'm gonna do a switch pop shove it. | ||
Now I'm gonna do a frontside shove it. | ||
Now I'm like, dude, this is so boring and a waste of our time because we both know we can do all of these tricks. | ||
You're just hoping I make a mistake on a basic trick. | ||
So I'm like, I'll tell you what. | ||
I was skating against this one dude and I did a trick, it's called a hang ten hard flip. | ||
And the dude immediately looked at the judge and was like, dude, come on! | ||
And the judge was like, He did a trick. | ||
And I'm like, I know these people can't do these tricks. | ||
So if I can get five tricks that I can never mess up, I will win in five minutes. | ||
You talking about the video game? | ||
No. | ||
Oh, skate. | ||
Playing skate is where you do a trick and your opponent has to do the same trick. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh. | |
If they don't do it, they get a letter. | ||
unidentified
|
It's like horse. | |
It's called skate. | ||
So if I would do, I would do cancel flips. | ||
So you do a kick flip and then you use your heel flip to make it go the other direction. | ||
Nobody knew what that was at the time. | ||
I could do all the different late flips. | ||
So it was always just like forward flip, Hankton hard flip, nollie half hard flip, under flip, heel cancel flip. | ||
And then it's like, I win in five tricks. | ||
I'm done. | ||
I show up, I do the tricks, I win. | ||
And they just look at me like, okay. | ||
And I'm like, yeah, I know you can't do those tricks. | ||
I'm trying to win. | ||
I'm not trying to sit here for an hour doing pop shove-its, man. | ||
But anyway, I digress. | ||
Nombot says from Champaign, Illinois, love you guys and TNG is indeed the best! | ||
Alright, we'll do one last super chat right here. | ||
Let's see. | ||
How do you pronounce that? | ||
Myth- oh, MythicRogue. | ||
