Let's go Brandon has reached number one, number two, number three, and number eight on iTunes
displacing Adele, pissing off a lot of lefty establishment media critics, but something
else strange has happened.
Now, I'm not entirely sure they've done this across the board, but when you go to Apple's website to look at the top ten, Let's Go Brandon, Not there.
None of them.
There's two different versions.
Well, there's three different versions.
There's two different songs.
One of the songs has three different versions, like a remix, an extended version, and it's dominating the top of the charts.
Well, it kinda looks like iTunes has completely removed the songs, all of them, from the top charts.
Because the only way to maintain these, I don't know, left-wing ideas and culture is to censor the right.
There's like a meme where they say, I think it's from 4chan, that any sufficiently open forum will become right-wing.
And that's why leftists come in with heavy-handed rules, because otherwise it would just be right-wing.
Well, iTunes started to get dominated, and so they have to take back control of the cultural institutions.
We got a couple more stories, though.
Biden is getting absolutely obliterated by Manchin.
He's losing everything.
The IRS tax reporting thing, where they're going to track your account, gone.
unidentified
Beautiful.
tim pool
Medical care, like all this stuff just being gutted.
The bill's now cut in half.
Biden is losing.
lydia smith
Yes!
tim pool
Because they're desperate to pass something before next year because they know they're going to lose the house.
And then we got some other cultural stories.
Apparently some very strange commercials.
What is this?
Doritos put out a commercial where a Latino family summons their dead uncle and then discover that he's gay.
It's just like a weird commercial.
libby emmons
Meanwhile, I didn't know ghosts could eat Doritos.
lydia smith
I didn't either.
Is that like something they can't do is eat?
libby emmons
I thought they couldn't.
tim pool
Maybe they have ghost Doritos.
unidentified
Ghost chips.
libby emmons
Instead of ghost ships.
tim pool
And then there's another story where apparently Twix made a commercial that has nothing to do with Twix.
It's just like a kid wearing a dress.
unidentified
Just Satanism.
Basically, yeah, if you watch the commercial.
tim pool
So, um, my friends Luke and Ian are currently on a date together, so they won't be on the show tonight.
No, they're both out.
And we're being joined by Libby Emmons.
You want to introduce yourself?
I think people know you.
libby emmons
Yeah, here I am.
How you doing?
I'm Libby Emmons.
I'm the editor-in-chief of the Postmillennial.
Happy to be here.
tim pool
And there's some other guys sitting here.
unidentified
This other guy, wandering into the studio.
seamus coughlin
Who am I?
Seamus Coghlan of Freedom Tunes.
It's great to be back.
lydia smith
And I am really enjoying our different crew for this evening.
And I was telling Libby this evening that she's like a magnet for chaos.
And then we almost hit a deer on the way down.
And I was like, I'm not joking.
It's very true.
libby emmons
I didn't know I was a magnet for chaos.
lydia smith
We survived.
We're here.
I'm glad we're here.
It's gonna be a great show.
unidentified
Luke and Ian need to watch out, this might become the new cast.
lydia smith
I know, right?
Shimcast.
seamus coughlin
Oh, that's right, it's Shimcast tonight.
tim pool
No, it's not Shimcast.
seamus coughlin
No, it's Shimcast tonight.
Let's let the chat tell us.
tim pool
Alright, you do the ad read.

A lot of people were like, Tim, why don't you have any new shirts?
And you're like, that's a good point.
We need a new shirt.
So we cranked one out.
This is Step on Snek and Find Out.
It is a joke from the vlog, Cast Castle vlog, where Kent, who does the animations, just makes silly shirts for Luke to wear.

I like it.

Yes.

But, uh, I'm really excited for this one.
And we're gonna be making a whole bunch more.

Again, you can go to TimCast.com, become a member, click store, get your Step On Snack and Find Out shirt.
Because it's funny.
And I'm gonna get a bunch.
But let's talk about the news!
Here we go.
This is where it gets really weird.
From PopVortex.com, you can see iTunes Top 10 Music Charts USA.
Top songs.
Let's go Brandon.
Featuring Tyson James and Chandler Crump, Bryson Gray.
Let's go Brandon extended version.
Loza Alexander.
Three.
Let's go Brandon.
Loza Alexander.
Knocking Adele out of the first place position.
Then you get Walker Hayes.
You get Ed Sheeran.
Then you get Elton John.
And the number eight is...
Let's go Brandon!
So someone chatted actually when we were starting the show that they removed it and I'm like no that would be too obvious so I pulled up music.apple.com US top 100 USA And it's not there.
unidentified
That's insane.
tim pool
But this is a different chart.
So I don't know exactly what's going on because this is not the same chart.
This says the most played songs in the U.S.
updated every day.
And this is from apple.com.
But they're different songs.
So I don't know.
Like Adele is there.
Easy on me.
But then they have Drake.
And Drake isn't up here.
So maybe, I don't know.
I don't know.
Am I missing something here?
That's why I didn't title it.
libby emmons
That's why we need Casey Kasem.
lydia smith
Yeah, exactly.
libby emmons
To tell us what's going on.
Do you guys remember Casey Kasem?
lydia smith
Yes, I do.
unidentified
No, who's that?
tim pool
What am I missing?
libby emmons
Casey Kasem, he did like the top 40.
lydia smith
Top 40?
libby emmons
Yeah.
Oh my gosh, that's wonderful.
Yeah, it was great.
And he had this great voice.
And I think he lived to be about 175 years old?
Pretty much, yeah.
Yeah, did he do it?
tim pool
And he would like announce the... You know, as like a lich, like an undead.
lydia smith
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
libby emmons
Kind of, yeah.
lydia smith
Kind of.
seamus coughlin
Like the Dorito commercial.
lydia smith
He had this great voice.
libby emmons
If you heard the voice, you might know it.
I bet you'd do a good impression of it, too.
tim pool
Probably.
I guess.
Here's what's funny about this, right?
So where's the story?
Here we go.
This is from showbiz411.
Adele booming at radio but temporarily knocked off iTunes top spot by moronic anti-Biden song.
lydia smith
Nice headline.
seamus coughlin
Okay.
tim pool
Hold on, hold on.
It's from October 25th, right?
lydia smith
Okay.
tim pool
Here's what he says.
Easy on Me was knocked off its perch at number one on iTunes after 10 straight days.
The Temporary Displacer is a moronic single called Let's Go Brandon by Bryson Gray Tyson, an anti-Biden record for anti-vaxxers.
Idiots!
Idiots are pushing this piece of crap up the iTunes chart, but no one in their right mind would spend money on it.
It's not a song or a record.
It's just garbage.
Adele will be back at number one tomorrow.
seamus coughlin
I love the framing.
libby emmons
Maybe that's why it's not on the, maybe that's why.
Maybe people aren't buying it.
They're just listening to it.
lydia smith
Oh, I don't know.
tim pool
Maybe, but it is in the top list.
I mean, you saw it on your phone.
You checked.
libby emmons
Yeah.
tim pool
Let's go.
Brennan's there.
And then, but this guy said October 25th, it would be knocked off the chart.
Adele will be number one.
Sorry dude!
seamus coughlin
Do we get a fact check on this?
Also, I love that the anti-Biden song is moronic and Adele makes music for intellectuals.
lydia smith
Yeah, I don't know about that.
tim pool
I like Adele, I think she's good.
seamus coughlin
I don't have anything against her, but is that just more sophisticated?
It's all pop music.
lydia smith
Yeah, pretty much.
tim pool
Hello.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, it's me.
lydia smith
It's a great song.
libby emmons
Let's Go Brandon is, you know, the one hit wonder of 2021.
tim pool
Yeah, but it's two different songs.
There's two versions of it.
Well, there's more than two versions.
There's two different songs and multiple versions of one song.
lydia smith
Remixes and stuff.
Yeah.
tim pool
So people like Let's Go Brandon.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, they really, really like it.
And one thing that I enjoy, and look, we all do this, we're all guilty of it, but people who don't produce anything trashing on something that everybody else loves... Right.
It's like, this song got into the top charts three times, literally three times, the exact same song, and this guy's like, it's moronic, it's terrible.
tim pool
No, no, no, now help me out with this, guys.
Remember the song F Donald Trump?
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
No, Donald Trump.
seamus coughlin
That's a real Bob Tim.
tim pool
Yeah, it came out in 2016.
It actually reached number one on iTunes November 7, 2020.
lydia smith
Oh, nice.
tim pool
Yeah.
So F F it's called FDT is the name of the song.
seamus coughlin
But can I say something?
Oh, sorry.
Well, is it isn't let's go Brandon a more creative way of saying it
than just like a friendly guy?
Yeah, well, saying F this guy that's moronic that.
tim pool
That's why I think Let's Go Brendan does really well.
But what I was going to say is, were conservatives outraged over F. Donald Trump?
I think I remember some people being like, how crude.
seamus coughlin
Like it knocked Adele off.
How could this have happened?
libby emmons
They might say that it was crude, but that's because conservatives are always saying that pop music is crude.
seamus coughlin
That's true.
tim pool
Yeah, like WAP.
Remember when Benji... Yeah, they're right.
libby emmons
That was hysterical.
And also, that song is kind of nasty.
seamus coughlin
It's very nasty.
libby emmons
It's a gross song.
It's disgusting.
It's not a sexy song.
You know what I mean?
There's no, like, there's no... Intrigue.
tim pool
When Ben Shapiro read the lyrics to WAP, And then someone took it and put it over WAP.
unidentified
Of course.
tim pool
That was legit hilarious.
lydia smith
True comedy.
tim pool
So I kind of feel like that's the big difference between if you're in the cult and you're not in the cult.
You know, I like Adele.
I think Adele's really good.
lydia smith
She's very talented, yeah.
tim pool
And Ed Sheeran, I don't know a whole lot about him, but I got... He's really boring.
I like Elton John.
Elton John's got a lot of great classic songs.
seamus coughlin
Me too, yeah.
tim pool
Yeah, Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, excellent music.
Rocketman, come on, who doesn't like... Rocketman is good.
seamus coughlin
I prefer William Shatner's cover, but...
unidentified
Right.
tim pool
Also good.
Me too.
I forgot about that one.
libby emmons
It's so good.
unidentified
Rocketman!
tim pool
No, but this is what's funny.
Like, even if conservatives were criticizing the F. Donald Trump song, they weren't going, they knocked Adele off the top charts.
seamus coughlin
Exactly.
libby emmons
Well, you know what's interesting about that, too, is like, so the thing where low art became high art in American culture is what allowed Adele to be something like critically acclaimed.
And now they don't like that there's more low art on things.
Already low art out.
Also, part of the thing with Let's Go Brandon is if the song was, you know, FDT but FJB instead, that would get censored all over the place.
That would be like hate speech.
It would be racist to call the old white male president names or something.
Like somehow that would all be wrong.
So this is a nice little workaround of censorship as well, which we obviously need a great deal of these days.
tim pool
I think Bryson's version is family-friendly.
libby emmons
I haven't heard any of that.
tim pool
Like he doesn't cuss or anything.
unidentified
Good for him.
seamus coughlin
Because he was saying that YouTube deleted... It's like the Kidz Bop version, like they're all bopping to this in the car with their family.
unidentified
I love it.
tim pool
Yep, they say fudge.
seamus coughlin
That's great.
tim pool
You know, and ship.
unidentified
I just released Biden bops if anyone wants to check that out.
lydia smith
Oh, that's great.
unidentified
That was so good.
lydia smith
Oh my gosh.
That was amazing.
tim pool
Sure not a shabbit of pressure.
lydia smith
That was good.
libby emmons
I just keep listening to old Weezer.
tim pool
Yeah, same.
Bryson mentioned this because YouTube deleted his video from YouTube saying that it was, like, medical misinformation, and he's like, what?
seamus coughlin
Wait, what was medical?
unidentified
This song?
seamus coughlin
Let's Go Brandon?
Like, people are listening to this song for medical advice?
They're like, well, I was gonna get vaccinated, but then I heard Let's Go Brandon.
lydia smith
That does not follow.
tim pool
No, it's very obvious.
The left controls cultural institutions by force.
They wouldn't if they didn't own these platforms.
They would not survive.
seamus coughlin
Exactly, they're losers.
tim pool
This music, this... You know, it's really funny when... We did a segment the other day talking about bands like Rage Against the Machine and The Offspring.
And I go back and I look at some of this music.
I was looking at, I think, Gone Away by The Offspring.
reached the Billboard Hot 100 number one. It was like a number one single. It is a really good song.
But then you look at the video for it and it's like, it doesn't get a lot of play.
But then you look at some other pop music with billions of views and I'm like, it seems to me
that back in the day they were artificially propping up songs that people didn't really care
That's how the industry works.
And now that people have the ability to choose, you can see what kind of music people really do like playing.
libby emmons
Well, that's what would happen is record companies would send out the songs to the radio stations, and the radio stations would have to play those songs a certain number of times a day.
lydia smith
Interesting.
libby emmons
They would push them.
Yeah.
I didn't realize that.
tim pool
It was all manufactured.
libby emmons
It was the old-time influencer model of radio.
lydia smith
Wow, interesting.
tim pool
So it's crazy to think about that a lot of the songs we heard in the 90s was just a record label being like, we want to sell this song.
It's like, do people like it?
seamus coughlin
There were some bangers though, you know?
tim pool
Closing time.
lydia smith
Oh, amazing.
tim pool
Glycerin.
lydia smith
Yeah, also good.
tim pool
Or glycerine.
lydia smith
I don't know.
I don't remember that one.
tim pool
Green Day?
Were they really the best or was it just that's all you could get?
libby emmons
I hated Green Day.
lydia smith
Yeah, Green Day.
seamus coughlin
Wow, well, it's a little messed up.
lydia smith
Not the best.
unidentified
Why are you a Green Day fan?
libby emmons
Green Day is the worst, I agree.
Yeah, and they got a Broadway show, I think.
seamus coughlin
Green Day did?
unidentified
What?
libby emmons
Didn't they?
Yeah, there was like a musical.
There was a Green Day musical.
lydia smith
That grosses me out.
I don't like that.
Huh.
tim pool
I wonder, it's really funny because we talked about this before too with American Idiot.
I remember, I could be wrong about this, but my understanding was that they had produced some garbage pop album with like acoustic songs and then people ragged on them for like not being punk.
So then they scrapped the album and then made American Idiot.
Yeah, that was it.
libby emmons
There's an original Broadway cast recording.
tim pool
Of what?
libby emmons
American Idiot.
lydia smith
Oh, of course.
Right, it was political.
libby emmons
Because it was a musical.
seamus coughlin
Tim, the look of genuine confusion on your face.
libby emmons
Why would they allow that?
In 2009, it premiered at Berkeley Rep.
It won a Grammy.
lydia smith
Gross and weird.
Don't like that.
Record company.
seamus coughlin
Grammys.
I hate all that stuff.
Literally just patting themselves on the back.
Anytime the industry gives itself an award, it just makes my skin crawl.
libby emmons
It's also an opportunity so that you could get up on stage and tell everybody how proud you are to have had an abortion.
seamus coughlin
Yep.
Murdered my child.
And you're all horrible people at home.
Maybe not Broadway, I was saying Grammys.
libby emmons
Who did that?
seamus coughlin
No, that was Oscars.
Oh, that was Oscars.
libby emmons
I'm sorry, I get confused with the celebrities awarding themselves for nothing.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, exactly.
Doing a little bit of this, patting themselves on the back.
They're all doing it all the time.
tim pool
Which reminds me, we're going to be doing the official Timcast Awards.
seamus coughlin
Oh, who's going to win?
lydia smith
Oh, who's going to win, I wonder?
seamus coughlin
What's my award?
tim pool
Beautiful.
libby emmons
Is it going to be a golden alpaca?
seamus coughlin
Well, I'd like to thank my abortion doctor.
lydia smith
Seamus, how dare you?
seamus coughlin
I shouldn't even joke about that.
I literally just made myself sad.
You know what should really happen?
libby emmons
What should really happen is men should get up there on the stage and they should talk about how they encourage their girlfriends to have abortions or their wives to have abortions so that their careers could be that much better without having the burden of children.
That would be way too real.
And then these not-fathers could be applauded for having Exterminated pregnancy.
seamus coughlin
This is the exact thing.
libby emmons
Why do we only celebrate women who kill their children?
Good point.
lydia smith
Equal opportunity.
libby emmons
You know what I mean?
seamus coughlin
Every single argument I saw when people were hashtag shouting their abortions, every argument I saw equally applied to deadbeat dads.
Yep.
Every single one was like, well, it helped me get further along in my career.
I wasn't ready for a childhood.
You could say this about a guy who just abandons his kids.
tim pool
Those are crazy arguments too.
seamus coughlin
Yeah.
tim pool
Like, I wanted to have a career and go to school and it's like, You can do that.
seamus coughlin
So someone had to die?
Like a person had to die?
It's so emotionally manipulative.
Here's what they'll do.
You'll show a woman a mammogram of what her actual child... or not a mammogram.
Oh, I was gonna say.
I'm getting confused because Planned Parenthood claims they have mammograms, but they don't.
So that's always in my head when I discuss it.
They literally have no mammograms, no.
They say they do.
They have said they do for years.
libby emmons
They'll help you cut your boobs off.
tim pool
Yeah, for sure.
seamus coughlin
But I'm sorry, mammograms.
So if you show someone an ultrasound of what their child actually looks like, that's emotional manipulation.
But if you convince women that they'll just never achieve their dreams unless they kill their baby, that's reasonable.
lydia smith
Yeah, that's fine.
Yeah.
seamus coughlin
It's insane.
lydia smith
Yeah, it's to me.
Yeah, checks out.
tim pool
That's like a weird segue though.
seamus coughlin
Where's my TimCast award?
unidentified
Best hard segue into a... We're talking about family planning.
tim pool
It seems like a pretty slow news day to be completely honest.
Like I was reading the news and it was just like everyone was kind of just twiddling their thumbs.
libby emmons
It was a good day to drive directly into the sun.
lydia smith
That worked out for you then.
unidentified
I'm sorry.
tim pool
I guess we're kind of just in this middle period waiting for the written house trial.
libby emmons
The written house trial is interesting.
Maybe you talked about it already and I missed it, but they were saying the people who were killed in that situation cannot be referred to as victims.
seamus coughlin
That's right.
libby emmons
They can be referred to as rioters.
seamus coughlin
Which is appropriate.
unidentified
100%.
I agree.
libby emmons
I totally agree.
tim pool
So I had that tweet that Donald Trump pinned on Twitter for a long time where it was like the Rittenhouse thing helped convince me to vote for Trump.
And that's like the left views it as like it's proof of being far right or whatever.
It's crazy though because this story with Rittenhouse shows you that left and right are meaningless other than you either are an idiot who believes fake BS or you care about facts.
Destiny, for instance, leftist streamer, was like the clearest case of self-defense I've ever seen.
And then his argument with Vosh, Vosh said in the Marvel movies, good guys put their guns down.
It's like, what?
No, they don't.
libby emmons
And that's totally fake.
And it was so horrific.
I mean it was such an abomination when they changed Star Wars for example and made it so that Han didn't know right
first That was the stupidest thing ever
Obviously what makes him a good character is that he's conflicted is that he I don't think it was like that
tim pool
He was like I'm going to shoot this man Right there's like yeah, so well. He was kind of a scoundrel
libby emmons
Yes, which is a good thing about him.
And that's the only... I mean, would Leia have fallen for the good guy?
unidentified
No.
No way.
libby emmons
She falls for the scoundrel with dirty hands.
seamus coughlin
She kissed her brother.
That was a little weird of her, I would say.
That was just for luck.
tim pool
You know the funny thing about the Star Wars, when she kissed her brother, is that they have the Force, right?
They have, like, strong in the Force, so they had to have known.
You know, when he's like, Vader's here already.
libby emmons
He can sense my presence or whatever.
And then when Vader's like, search your feelings or whatever.
All about whether he's your father.
tim pool
No, when when he's like Vader's already Vader's here already
He can sense my presence or whatever and then when Vader's like search your feelings or whatever, you know, whether he's
seamus coughlin
your father Oh my goodness, so there's no way
But maybe it's not, maybe it's only if you're looking for it, you know?
If you're into somebody, you don't stop to think, I need to search the forest for whether this is my sister.
tim pool
Yeah, of course not.
seamus coughlin
It's not gonna be your sister.
tim pool
They have that app in Iceland where... Yeah, they do.
So you don't have to date your cousin.
libby emmons
No, really?
tim pool
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
There's an app in Iceland where you can look up if the person you're dating is actually your cousin.
lydia smith
Very small gene pool up there.
libby emmons
I can see that being repurposed for a kink.
seamus coughlin
Oh my goodness.
Well, back to Kyle Rittenhouse.
tim pool
Yeah, this will be interesting.
seamus coughlin
Well, it's insane too because this is another reason why it's so dangerous to have a dialogue surrounding guns in a country where a large majority of the citizens have never handled a gun and most of the people on the other side of the gun debate have never seen one in person, I think, oftentimes.
Because people don't realize the unbelievable discipline which was required for Kyle to literally only hit his targets.
Like, he's in an urban environment being chased on by a mob, and he only hit the people who were trying to attack him.
People think that weapons function as they do in the films, where anyone can just hit whatever target they want to shoot.
Oh my god, that's not easy!
unidentified
It's not easy!
seamus coughlin
And it's most, and this is one thing, Not anyone who knows anything about firearms will tell you when people ask, like, why would you need 30 rounds?
Why would you need a 50-round magazine and a handgun?
Well, the reason is because most of the time you're not going to hit your target.
Especially if you don't train very often.
Especially if you're an average person.
You're not in the military or something.
Someone who's been tactically trained or shoots every day.
You're probably going to miss a good amount.
And also it can take more than one bullet to take a person down.
So the fact that this kid was able to, with precision, Hit only the people who are trying to hurt him when he was being chased down by an entire mob of people is a testament of adults.
It's a testament to how responsible he was.
He wasn't just out there shooting his gun out like a maniac.
He only hit people who were a direct threat to his life, even though an entire mob was chasing him down.
tim pool
Well that's why, so the judge said, you can call them rioters, looters, and arsonists, but not victims.
The amount of misinformation in this story, it's mind-boggling, it's infuriating.
Because I expect it when it comes to politics, but this is so crazy, man.
Go on Twitter.
unidentified
Yep.
tim pool
None of it's true.
what these progressive TikTokers are saying about it.
And they're like a white supremacist mass murderer who took a gun and crossed state lines.
It's like, none of it is true.
seamus coughlin
None of it's true.
libby emmons
The other thing too is shortly after that, I think it was in, what was it, September of 2020,
the Biden campaign came out with an ad where they called Rittenhouse a white nationalist.
seamus coughlin
A white nationalist?
libby emmons
Who did?
seamus coughlin
They could just say that about anybody.
libby emmons
Biden called him that.
Biden said that in a campaign ad.
And the family came out and said, we're going to sue you.
I don't know what happened with that.
But when you have the man who becomes president making up lies to win political elections, lies about a teenager lies about trying to damage their
reputation trying to protect his community yeah
seamus coughlin
and yes self well it's funny to one of the reasons one of the most obvious
tells from the get-go that this was not the kind of mass shooting situation the
left is trying to make it out to be is people on the left were actually
referring to gun laws that they thought were broken
every single time a shooting occurs they pretend that there were no laws in place to prevent it because then
they have to acknowledge the fact that whatever new laws are put into
place just gonna be disobeyed by any psychopath who wants to murder people
anyway.
And so with Rittenhouse, they're saying he traveled to a different state with a gun, which is illegal.
First of all, that's not even true.
But if it was, if you really think someone's a mass murderer, You're not all that concerned with the regulations they broke transporting their gun.
tim pool
It's all they got.
seamus coughlin
Exactly.
It's all they had.
tim pool
Yeah, that's a good point.
It's crazy, like, man.
It's been getting bad.
You know, I know I go, oh, Civil War and all that stuff, but I'm like, dude, it is really bad.
So I follow a bunch of progressive YouTubers and stuff, and just to see the amount of fake news they peddle, I realized something today, because a lot of them I watch, they don't have sources.
Or they'll use broken sources.
They won't seek out... They'll find a source that has the information they prefer, and then they'll show that as their source, like Slate.com and Huffington Post.
And I use CNN as often as I can.
I do use Daily Mail fairly often, but I try to use CNN.
I try to use CBS.
I try to use NBC.
And then I'm always fact-checking and trying to be like, whenever I'm looking at a story, I'll try and find like four different versions of the same story and then go through them and see what their source is to make sure that they're not doing closed-loop sourcing.
libby emmons
I think that makes a lot of sense to do it that way, because otherwise you're just not sure who's reporting off of what and where they got their information.
tim pool
So if I can verify something, I choose to use CNN because I think it's funny.
seamus coughlin
I'm like, they use their own sources against them, 100%.
tim pool
Well, if CNN gets it right, they deserve to be used as a source.
seamus coughlin
Also true.
On those rare occasions.
unidentified
And more importantly, when they're like, Kim Poole made up this story about Rittenhouse.
tim pool
Like, that's the New York Times.
So I tweeted, people were tweeting about the Alec Baldwin thing, and they were like, you know, Alec Baldwin did nothing wrong, and they said Kyle Rittenhouse should go to prison.
And then I said, Alec Baldwin was a producer on the film who was handed a loaded weapon, didn't check, pointed at a woman, and pulled the trigger.
Kyle Rittenhouse was defending a bunch of businesses from rioters who fled after being
attacked trying to put out a fire, trying to put a fire out as they're pushing it towards
a gas station and only fired when fired upon. And I get these leftists like,
that never happened, no one fired at him. And I'm like, the New York Times reported that.
So I pull up the New York Times, I show the photo where it shows the circle, it says Muzzle Flash, and then I paste it and I'm like, there's the image, here's the link, and they're like, oh please, if you go frame by frame you can make anything up.
libby emmons
And there were journalists on the ground covering that stuff.
tim pool
We've had them all here.
libby emmons
And we were all watching that.
It was so clear.
Dude, if... There was great coverage of that.
tim pool
People made a good point the other day.
If Rittenhouse gets convicted, there'll be riots.
If he's acquitted, there'll be riots.
And it's not gonna be from the right.
lydia smith
Of course.
tim pool
Like, the left is gonna riot no matter what.
Because if they do convict him, he's not gonna get the worst possible charges, probably.
I mean, for a while, I was saying life.
But after seeing this judge, I don't think so.
seamus coughlin
Well, yeah, exactly.
Here's the thing.
Part of why this is such an important battle for them is because they want people to be terrified of the mob, and they want you to know that if you defend yourself, you're going to be punished for it.
And so if this kid goes down simply for defending himself, the message that sends to the American public is, if there are people in your community burning down businesses and attacking innocent people, you mind your business, or if you're the person who they want to kill, you let them kill you.
Because if you don't, we'll destroy your life anyway.
So the thing about Rittenhouse really is that...
If he hadn't defended himself, if he had allowed the mob to kill him, as 33 people were killed this past summer, none of us would know his name.
But because he defended himself, he's front page news.
tim pool
We would know his name.
seamus coughlin
We might, but the average person, we wouldn't be talking about it.
The people who killed him, when their trial date came up, that wouldn't be a news story.
They wouldn't be pushing it as hard as they're pushing the Rittenhouse story.
The media wouldn't be talking about it.
libby emmons
They're also pushing the Arbery story, the Ahmaud Arbery story, the young man who was Killed in Georgia by, um, who's a black man killed in Georgia by three white guys in a pickup truck.
tim pool
He was jogging.
He was jogging.
He was jogging inside a house that was under construction.
libby emmons
He was jogging inside a house under construction.
unidentified
Right.
libby emmons
Yeah.
Um, yeah.
So that was another sort of like, uh, in boots.
seamus coughlin
Right.
Was he wearing boots?
I need to double check on this.
tim pool
Yeah, I think he was wearing boots.
libby emmons
But the mob has to use might because they have no moral authority at all.
And so they have to use shame and all of those things.
That's the only way that they have power.
tim pool
There's an occupying force in our culture and government that represents a fringe faction of ideologies.
And it's because of the cowardice of so many people that they're able to get away with what they do.
seamus coughlin
Exactly.
And these mobs are their militant wing.
lydia smith
I am so, I have to say, I'm so intrigued by this judge, by him saying this before the trial even gets underway.
What is he thinking?
What is he trying to convey?
Because he's being surprisingly based, which is kind of optimistic, right?
unidentified
Well, you know what he said?
libby emmons
He said that if the defense could back up their claims that these were arsonists, rioters, and looters, then they could for sure call them that.
They just have to back it up, which I think is pretty possible to do.
They were literally trying to set a gas station on fire that night in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
tim pool
The prosecutor argued they were just trying to obstruct a road with a flaming dumpster, and the judge is like... That's okay.
Yeah, the judge goes... He's like, excuse me?
It's just arson?
Come on!
As if there's a zone where that's acceptable?
unidentified
And they're like, well, you know, he wasn't...
tim pool
Yeah.
This is what we have to look forward to.
libby emmons
Well, there was another man, too, who I don't think it was in Kenosha.
We reported on it at Post Millennial.
Mia Cathedral wrote about it at length.
There was a man who was defending his shop and his elderly father against a mob of looters.
And this man shot one of the looters who was trying to break into the shop.
He was then condemned, vilified, mobbed online, all of that stuff for being a racist because the man he shot was black.
He was simply he was defending his shop against these people.
And he later killed himself because it was so traumatizing and horrible.
Nobody says his name and I can't even remember his name, which is horrible.
tim pool
There's a story out of Philly that never got really big play at all because there was no interest from anybody to cover it.
But during the height of the riots, there was a local gun store I used to go to and the guy told me, this is crazy, he told me that they got a warning from the ATF that people were gonna try and loot gun stores during the riots.
lydia smith
Right.
tim pool
Later on, I heard a news story that three guys tried breaking into a Philly gun store and one of them, I think one of them was shot and killed and like someone may have been injured, I can't remember.
But I put two and two together, I was like, whoa!
libby emmons
I remember this.
tim pool
So what happened was the guy was sleeping in his gun shop.
libby emmons
That's right.
tim pool
ATF probably called him, told him, because the other gun shop told me he was also sleeping in his store.
lydia smith
Right.
tim pool
And then he's sitting there armed and someone breaks in and bam.
unidentified
Geez.
libby emmons
No one- That's a way to save lives is to prevent people from stealing your guns.
tim pool
Yeah.
Yeah, absolutely.
But no 2A person thought it was going to be a good story probably to be like, hey, look what happened.
And the left certainly didn't want to say, hey, the Black Lives Matter people are trying to steal guns now.
There is that video though where they break into a gun store and then just start taking everything.
Have you seen that?
lydia smith
I haven't seen that.
tim pool
Dude, it was crazy last year.
Can you believe it's been almost two years since we've been living under fascism?
lydia smith
I didn't realize.
I had no idea.
tim pool
That's crazy, right?
libby emmons
When would you say the fascism started?
tim pool
The lockdowns.
libby emmons
March 13th, 2020.
lydia smith
Is that it?
tim pool
So we're about a year and a half in.
libby emmons
That's when New York City's school closed.
Which I remember distinctly because I had pulled my son out of school because there were lice.
lydia smith
Oh, nice.
libby emmons
It wasn't the COVID that did it, it was the lice.
And then I was like, I'm not having lockdown with the lice.
lydia smith
Yep, that's not gonna work for me.
tim pool
Let's talk about this story that you guys have with the post-millennial because it's horrifying and probably will get us in trouble on YouTube, but we should talk about it.
lydia smith
Let's do it.
libby emmons
It didn't get the high school in trouble on social media, so it'll get us in trouble for... We'll get in trouble for talking about it.
No, it didn't.
It was on social media.
tim pool
From Post Millennial, investigation underway after Kentucky High School hosts drag pageant featuring male teens in lingerie giving lap dances to staff.
seamus coughlin
Oh my gosh, I didn't realize that people dancing were minors.
I didn't know, I'm serious.
When people were sharing the story, I was like, oh, that's horrible and disgusting.
I didn't realize that it wasn't like they brought people in to do something inappropriate in a high school.
They actually had minors doing this.
Dude, that's like, that's like, that's like prison stuff.
That's like, that should be hard time.
Those are minors that you're having give lap dances.
That's a sex offense.
tim pool
The absolute state of these United States.
lydia smith
What is happening right now?
My gosh.
libby emmons
It was, it was Jacob Gardner.
I just want to say that.
The man who killed himself.
Oh, that's right.
lydia smith
That's right.
tim pool
That's right.
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
He was the guy that was in Omaha.
libby emmons
Yeah, that's right.
tim pool
And they, they attacked his restaurant.
The guy was choking him out.
Well, not only do we have those kind of stories, we also have this, where at a high school they're having minor males give lap dances to teachers.
unidentified
Okay, that is so unbelievable.
tim pool
No it's not, come on.
seamus coughlin
You're right, it's unbelievable.
It's so, the audacity of these people.
First, They shut the schools down for over a year and whine and complain anyone tells them that they have to go back into the classroom and do their job.
And then on top of that, they happen to be pushing all this CRT stuff, this sort of Keynesian perverse sexual education curriculum with all of these gross modern ideas in it.
And then, before this story breaks, we're seeing think pieces about how parents don't really have rights.
We need to allow the teachers to do their job.
libby emmons
We have the Attorney General saying that as well.
The Attorney General today affirmed that he was going to continue the investigation into angry parents, even though the National School Boards Association has basically rescinded their original letter from September.
seamus coughlin
That's what they need to be investigating, of course.
Not the rampant sex abuse problem in public schools.
It's also not as if this is an isolated occurrence.
Sexual abuse is a common phenomenon in public schools.
libby emmons
This is just a practical, right?
This is just a practical from the genderqueer health class.
tim pool
Did you see that book that was going viral today?
seamus coughlin
We're weird for making it weird, right?
libby emmons
The president touted this book.
It is disgusting if you look at it.
seamus coughlin
I saw some of it.
tim pool
It's got explicit sex acts in it.
seamus coughlin
It's pornography.
libby emmons
And it's not just written down.
tim pool
It's pornography.
lydia smith
It's drawn.
libby emmons
It's very visual.
tim pool
So it's got depictions of minors engaging in adult activities.
seamus coughlin
So this stuff is unbelievably disgusting.
I did a video a couple weeks ago that I spent a long time researching and it's about a gentleman named Kinsey, by the name of Kinsey.
Yeah, and he is known as the father of sexology, Dr. Kinsey.
libby emmons
One of my friends in high school, their dog was named Kinsey.
seamus coughlin
Oh, wow.
Yeah, no.
tim pool
To like shame the guy?
lydia smith
I hope so.
libby emmons
No, it was just they thought it was funny.
seamus coughlin
I mean, a lot of people name their dog Seamus.
It's a very common thing when I say my name is Seamus.
tim pool
I have a dog named Seamus.
unidentified
Oh, great.
Wonderful.
seamus coughlin
Is basically the person who he is the sexology what Freud was to psychology I mean he basically developed this field and his accolades went on to develop CKIS which sets standards basically and largely influences federal standards for sexual education or what we call Comprehensive sexual education in the United States.
So Kinsey and this is all the way back in the 40s, right?
He was doing these surveys on human sexuality and he published a document saying hey What we learned from our surveys is that people are not following the sexual morals and norms that society has attempted to foist upon them.
Now, his findings were faulty, and Abraham Maslow, who is by no means a religious conservative, came forward and said, this study was horribly done because he oversampled prisoners, homosexuals, prostitutes, and it was also self-reported.
That was the thing Maslow had the problem with, that it was self-reported.
Who in the 40s is going to tell you their sexual history?
libby emmons
It was like the vers of sex practice.
seamus coughlin
Exactly, weird people.
And so, on top of that, there was the official story from the Kinsey Institute, and they've changed their story.
But the official story is that there was a child sex abuser who came to Kinsey, who Kinsey taught how to use a stopwatch to time his sexual abuse of the children so that he could publish it in his documents.
And in the Kinsey mail report, there is a data table showing Data, I'll put it this way so I don't get your channel deleted, that you could only possibly have if you sexually abused a child to get it.
And so this is the guy who's upon which we have based the field of sexology and his disciples went on to Fonsecas and it's all done with the assumptions that he forwarded in our culture and the guy was a pervert who was enabling pedophiles.
libby emmons
Well, we're still enabling pedophiles.
seamus coughlin
And we're still enabling pedophiles.
libby emmons
But my point is... I mean, here it is in Kentucky.
seamus coughlin
Well, but that's my point.
People see things like this and they think it just started.
But the seeds were sown for this a very long time ago.
You had in the 1980s in Time Magazine, Pomeroy, one of Kinsey's co-authors, saying that he thought that incestuous behavior between adults and children is not necessarily harmful.
Just on record!
unidentified
Yikes.
seamus coughlin
Just on record.
tim pool
So this is what we're starting to see translated into these schools.
seamus coughlin
Exactly.
tim pool
That's how it kind of comes together for people.
seamus coughlin
Exactly.
I mean, you build your house on sand, it falls apart, right?
And if your house is built upon these horrific, immoral sexual attitudes, you get horrific, immoral sexual outcomes.
And that includes sexual abuse.
tim pool
It's funny because it feels like conservatives have been asleep at the wheel for a long time.
seamus coughlin
Very long time.
tim pool
Democrats have mastered their ground game.
They've really dominated for a long time.
libby emmons
But the Democrats are in charge of corporations.
They're in charge of political power.
They have all the cultural power.
They have the academic and institutional power.
So, they have control over all of these avenues of power in the United States, and they're using it to bludgeon the rest of us, and they're acting as though they are speaking out against power, because that's the language that they have used to gain power.
We're speaking against this overarching, authoritarian, totalitarian moral code, and now they're using those exact same tactics to destroy us.
seamus coughlin
Amen.
libby emmons
On purpose.
seamus coughlin
Well, and because all along, to them, power was just newspeak for a thing we don't like, right?
Because it's blatantly obvious that they're the people in power.
So whenever they say, your publication attacks the downtrodden and you punch down, they say this about humor they dislike all the time.
libby emmons
It's punching down, the people are punching down.
Right.
seamus coughlin
Exactly.
What they mean by down is thing we like.
Doesn't matter whether that thing is empowered or not.
What matters is they like it, so they say it's powerless, or it represents the powerless.
But it has nothing to do with actual power dynamics.
It just happens to be something that they like, and so they know it's better optics to say that it's not.
tim pool
The seat of power is corporations.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, well, yes.
libby emmons
It is corporations, and we're seeing that so fully.
We see that online all the time.
You know, like, the corporations do what they're told.
That's how it appears.
And then they take all of that, and they foist it on the rest of us.
tim pool
I was looking up Chief Diversity Officer.
libby emmons
And it's just as oppressive as the religious authorities used to be.
seamus coughlin
I would say less.
tim pool
It's worse.
seamus coughlin
I would say more.
unidentified
It's way worse.
seamus coughlin
I would say way worse.
tim pool
You know, like, religion, deeply influential in a lot of ways, but when I was growing up, nowhere near the power of massive corporations.
libby emmons
No, but the left told us that they had that kind of power.
The left told us that this moral authority was bad and that we needed to fight against it.
tim pool
And it was really just people voting together.
seamus coughlin
Yes, that's correct.
libby emmons
And it was communities.
It was communities helping each other.
seamus coughlin
Evil always calls for tolerance.
And then when it's ascendant, it calls for compliance.
And that's exactly what we're seeing.
unidentified
Yep.
Yep.
seamus coughlin
And, uh, it's interesting, uh, you know, well, it's interesting when you look at these corporations, oftentimes they'll make decisions about who they should hire or fire.
What kinds of, and when I mean who they should hire fire, I mean, in mass, like what, you know, number of minorities do we need at this company?
Do we need to hire more women of color, more transgender people, et cetera.
Should we apologize for this commercial?
Should we try to.
Bring more diversity, etc.
They make decisions like this on the basis of a small handful of people at Twitter tweeting at them because they think that means there is a large number of people or a large majority of people out there who are going to boycott them if they don't obey, right?
So one of their employees does something wrong and then a couple people tweet at them.
They lose their minds because the quote-unquote consensus on Twitter is one way.
But what's really important, I just want to say one more thing.
According to a Pew survey, Twitter users are plus 15 Democrats, so it would be one of the most Democratic states in the country.
And that's basically what they're doing.
You wouldn't quite call it market research, but that's where they're getting a lot of their data on what the American people want.
tim pool
I looked up chief diversity officer.
lydia smith
Yeah.
tim pool
That's a new thing.
libby emmons
It sure is.
tim pool
And Wikipedia's first entry goes back to 2008.
And if you look up CEO, it goes back to 2002, obviously, because CEO has been around for a long time.
Diversity officer is basically communist party member.
So the Chinese Communist Party has their party member in all these businesses that assert authority and control over how you fall in line.
Now what they're starting to do is they're starting to make chief diversity officers, and it is the most insane thing you can ever imagine.
It's like a tumor, because think about it.
What does a chief executive officer do?
I mean, they run the show.
They make executive decisions on everything.
The chief operating officer executes on those things and is in charge of managing the data.
They did everything, runs the operations.
Then you have chief marketing officer, head of marketing, chief technology officer.
Then you have like content officers.
You have high ranking positions based around specific tasks for companies.
What would, so content, Chief Content Officer, we know what that does.
They manage and oversee content.
What is content?
Well, it's the thing you're making and selling.
Chief Marketing Officer, they're selling the product to everybody.
Chief Operating Officers running the company.
They're doing things that make money and that matter.
Chief Diversity Officer, proselytizing ideology, ensuring you comply.
libby emmons
And the Chief Diversity Officer has to make sure that racism remains front and foremost in the company.
You have to make sure that there's constantly racism problems in the company.
Otherwise you have no job.
There's no point of the chief diversity officer other than maintaining their position.
seamus coughlin
Yes, exactly.
This is why Thomas Sowell said never put activists in charge of solving a problem.
The activist has nothing to do if the problem gets solved.
They're going to find things that seem problematic when they aren't because that's their bread and butter.
tim pool
I learned this when I worked for these non-profits.
A good non-profit puts itself out of business.
Hey, here's a problem.
We want to solve a problem.
We made a bunch of money.
We campaigned for a problem.
Problem is solved.
Goodbye, everybody.
Have a nice day.
They never, never do.
libby emmons
I think it was clear a couple of years ago when the investigations started into these not-for-profits.
The race for the cure?
It turned out that some massive amount, 95% of the revenue went to further the operation itself, not to do anything.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
It was all for administrative costs.
It wasn't to further the mission.
It was to maintain the company itself.
tim pool
It's supposed to be like a good nonprofit is 90% charitable 10% costs I think it's fair to say because I work for some nonprofits where it's like 50-50 and you're like well look if paying the salaries of people running the company is consuming amount of resources And it's high, I still think it's fine.
If it's 95 to 5, that's not legitimate.
Especially for a very large nonprofit where the executive director is getting paid millions of dollars.
seamus coughlin
Exactly.
I mean, it's thinkable that in certain circumstances, based on the kind of activism they're engaged in, it might be more complicated, so the administrative costs might be higher, but 95% is absurd.
libby emmons
It's really just all about the gala.
So that everyone feels good.
It goes back to those celebs giving themselves awards again.
seamus coughlin
That's what it's all about.
unidentified
Big ol' circle of jerks.
libby emmons
And then these are the tax breaks that are taken by the big multi-billion dollar corporations that Elizabeth Warren wants to pay their fair share, but they're giving all their money to the gala.
tim pool
It's not so easy, you know, I'm learning this especially people think that a lot of these ultra wealthy individuals will Start a nonprofit and just hide their money or LLC It's not that easy to do but they find these workarounds where they can do certain things There's there's there's like I know it's not easy.
I've looked into it Well, no, cuz we're doing two nonprofits.
unidentified
Yeah.
seamus coughlin
No, I'm on the board of one of them, right?
tim pool
Oh, that's Yeah, totally.
So I'm talking to our accountant about like, okay, so I wanna get this ball rolling on truth in media.
We wanna start fact checking.
What can we do, like how much can we do?
And they're like, here's your limit.
You can only do so much.
You'll need to find other donors.
And I was like, oh wow, all right, well.
seamus coughlin
Interesting.
tim pool
There you go.
So it's not like you can just hide all your money or write it all off, but there are things
that these companies do where it's like you'll create 10 nonprofits and then they have the money
as like a whirlpool shuffling around, which basically cleans them of tax liability
So it's like, if you got 10 non-profits, then you can donate a little bit to each one, then they can all donate to one, then you can pay yourself a $10 million salary.
unidentified
It's so scummy.
libby emmons
There was also crazy things when I was doing theater arts because One of the things people would do is start their own theater company right so that they could do their own work Which I did that too, but other people got they created not-for-profits out of their theater companies so that they were charitable organizations when it was really just like a couple of people from Barnard or whatever who wanted to do theater projects and then they would get all of their families to donate and their families companies to donate so that all of this money would just pour in and

Well, we were talking about Chief Diversity Officer, so I want to get over to our next story here.
Uh, you guys, you're gonna love this one.
unidentified
Oh boy.
tim pool
We have a new woke ad.
Actually, we got a couple, but we're gonna start with this one.
I'm so excited for this.
From Libs of TikTok, we have a Doritos commercial.
Oh.
And it says, Doritos just put out this ad.
For your viewing pleasure, I will now play the ad for you, and then we will discuss.
seamus coughlin
This will break you.
unidentified
Hermano, como te extraño.
tim pool
Alright, not everybody's watching, so I'm gonna translate for you guys.
It's in Spanish.
An old lady and a bunch of people are looking at a shrine, and there is a photo of an old man.
It says, My brother, I miss you so much.
Oh, now there's blue smoke.
And a ghost appears.
unidentified
What's up, family?
How are you guys?
tim pool
Now all of a sudden, another man has just emerged behind... What would you call them?
Was that a lich?
Is he a lich?
seamus coughlin
A what?
unidentified
A lich.
libby emmons
What's a lich?
tim pool
Yeah, I don't know what a lich is.
So, it's like a zombie, but not mindless.
lydia smith
Right.
libby emmons
Oh, I think he's a spirit, because this is based on the movie Coco.
unidentified
Oh, is it?
seamus coughlin
It's based on the idea of the Day of the Dead, right?
tim pool
So he's a ghost.
seamus coughlin
He's a poltergeist.
tim pool
Yeah, he's a spirit.
lydia smith
He's not a poltergeist.
tim pool
I know, I know.
libby emmons
Maybe he'd be a poltergeist if he was... But hold on.
tim pool
A man has just emerged from behind him.
lydia smith
He removes his hat.
tim pool
He removes his hat.
Who is he?
unidentified
This is Mario.
tim pool
My partner.
unidentified
And then they hold hands.
seamus coughlin
Horror!
unidentified
Shotgun horror.
What?
tim pool
I thought he'd be alone forever.
And then they hug.
So look at his hands!
He's got- his arms are bones.
Is that what Coco is, I guess?
lydia smith
Yeah.
unidentified
I think that is very similar to the style.
tim pool
Okay, I just gotta say right off the bat, Doritos!
unidentified
What?!
seamus coughlin
What does this have to do?
You know guys, I really want some chips!
lydia smith
Yeah, I don't know, what's up with that?
tim pool
I'm not gonna eat that high-glycemic garbage.
libby emmons
Wait, hold on, hold on.
tim pool
I got no issue with a PSA about respecting people who love anybody or whatever.
What I can't understand is why they summon a dead man who then also brings with him his undead gay partner and why that is selling Chips.
Corn chips.
libby emmons
Yeah.
Also, can you eat corn chips if you're dead?
Maybe if you're dead and gay, you can eat corn chips.
seamus coughlin
You also aren't supposed to have relations if you're dead.
I think you're dead.
libby emmons
I don't know how that works.
lydia smith
So many questions.
unidentified
Is this what they think the afterlife is like?
tim pool
You're a skeleton, but you have a mustache?
seamus coughlin
I don't know.
He wasn't gay in life, and then after he died, he became gay?
libby emmons
My take on it was that He was too ashamed to tell his family in life that he was gay.
And so now he's able to say that because he's dead.
tim pool
Have you guys ever seen the movie The Others?
lydia smith
No.
tim pool
The Cole Kidman?
libby emmons
No.
tim pool
Really?
It's an old movie.
I'm going to spoil it, but it's really good.
lydia smith
If it's old, that's fine.
tim pool
Basically, it's like this old timey, like 1800s or whatever, and weird haunting things keep happening.
And you know, like doors are opening and stuff.
And then like they see a little girl and they're like freaking out and there's ghosts.
And then it turns out that actually they're the ghosts the whole time!
And the weird things happening were the living people doing stuff and Nicole Kidman just couldn't like reconcile the fact that she's like a ghost or whatever.
And so I'm like, I'm imagining a horror film like that, but it turns out like at the end, like the twist was that the ghost was gay the whole time.
unidentified
I'm just like, I don't under... It's weird because they're gay.
It's weird.
tim pool
It's not thematically making sense.
seamus coughlin
Well, they're gay and they're attracted to dead people.
That's another thing.
Technically, each of those guys is into dead people.
libby emmons
This is just more of the mainstreaming of kink.
lydia smith
Yeah, you're right.
And I'm disturbed by this.
libby emmons
There was recently an advice letter in Slate magazine about someone wrote in saying that their kink was necrophilia.
seamus coughlin
Oh my gosh, that is disgusting.
Why can't we just start saying the word perversion again?
We have to, like it's not a kink, that's a perversion.
libby emmons
Slate basically answered that it's okay.
tim pool
It's not, it's not, it's not okay.
seamus coughlin
It's really not okay.
libby emmons
Just don't stop a meal at work because the person worked at a funeral home.
lydia smith
Oh my.
seamus coughlin
Oh my gosh!
Whoa!
That took like a second to really sink in with me, but wow!
Oh boy!
lydia smith
I'm not cool with this.
tim pool
So what a world we're in.
This is a Doritos commercial.
What is happening?
But this meme has been around for a while, like where, you know, companies are trying to... This is the thing about a chief diversity officer.
They're betting on selling their product based on Yeah.
Ideology?
libby emmons
Intersectionality?
It's a weird thing.
They're betting on selling more Doritos to woke people and betting that conservatives don't care.
tim pool
Yep, conservatives don't care.
seamus coughlin
And you know what?
libby emmons
And that's part of it too, is conservatives for the most part are just like, meh, I still like Doritos.
Whatever.
tim pool
We gotta start filming skits.
Cuz we could make a great one.
Where it's like, we just make a really ridiculous religious commercial and then it's selling something like, you know, lug nuts for your tire.
libby emmons
Right.
seamus coughlin
Says nothing to do.
tim pool
A dad comes back home to meet his son, and his son's like, you weren't there for me and mom.
unidentified
And then he's like, but thanks to these Meyers lug nuts, I was able to finally make it home.
tim pool
And he's like, dad, and they hug.
seamus coughlin
And then a ghost comes out of the chimney and the closet at the same time.
unidentified
He has a partner in the afterlife.
seamus coughlin
Yo, that's, yeah, I would say that's a bit of a strange commercial.
libby emmons
Yeah.
lydia smith
Not a big fan.
seamus coughlin
I'm not either.
libby emmons
I'm not a fan of the commercial.
tim pool
Do we have to worry about it though?
seamus coughlin
Do we have to worry about it?
I'd call an exorcist if that happened to me.
tim pool
Do we have to worry about it?
libby emmons
I think this is coming for everything.
It's interesting too because so several years ago I was walking in, I don't know, where was it?
Somewhere in Manhattan on the subway station.
There were all these advertisements and I was with my son who at the time I think was five and there was a huge ad of people making out, right?
It was just a print ad but it was giant.
lydia smith
Like the subway.
libby emmons
The subway, yeah.
And my son goes, um, Mom, what's that an ad for?
seamus coughlin
Like CPR.
They're doing mouth to mouth.
CPR class.
libby emmons
And we looked at it for a while and I said, hun, that's an ad for jeans.
And he was like, what?
seamus coughlin
Passing them on.
libby emmons
And he was like, that is so peculiar.
lydia smith
And this is like the five year old.
libby emmons
It used to be that they were selling us things with sex.
unidentified
Right.
libby emmons
Right.
And now they're selling us things with their new religion.
tim pool
It's like the Family Guy is that joke where it's like, they're watching TV and it's a bunch of beautiful women at a pool and they're all drinking and getting drunk and it's like, drink our beer!
seamus coughlin
If you do, beautiful women love sex with you!
That's South Park.
Or no, I know South Park did a version where they keep going, they're like, drink all these women, drink responsibly.
libby emmons
I always think that, too.
It's like, well, remember the ones when they would have a boat?
And I was always like, I would drink the beer if it got me the boat.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, but it doesn't.
Well, so this is one thing I learned.
I went to art school, and I took a media literacy theory class, and one thing our professor did is he just had us watch a bunch of commercials, And they almost never have anything to do with the product ever.
The reason these are weird is because they're clearly pushing a specific ideology, which is pretty strange to do in an advertisement to support a political cause that has nothing to do with the product.
But usually they want to sell people an experience.
So the idea is you associate their product with something positive.
He would show us, in particular, these Kraft Mac and Cheese commercials, and they were really insidious because they were playful, but basically the moral of every commercial was someone in your family's betraying you.
You wouldn't think it that way watching them, but you watch all the commercials and it stacks up, and the punchline is always like someone in your family secretly screwed you over to get the macaroni.
Oh, that's creepy!
Yeah, it was actually really creepy, but it was very funny watching it.
libby emmons
It kind of sounds like my family, actually.
seamus coughlin
What's interesting is commercials always try to sell you an experience and then the product is secondary.
lydia smith
I remember when I was a kid.
Hold on, I have to tell this story real fast.
This is something that was very vivid for me because they used to sell these like rocket pops, freezer pops.
And in these commercials, the world was always black and white.
It was very boring.
This kid is going to the fridge.
Nothing's going on.
It's highly uninteresting.
You take out one of these super cool rocket pops and you you lick it and the whole world is like in color. I was
like six. So when I actually finally convinced my mom to get these stupid rocket pop
things, I was like, this is going to be amazing. And I licked it and I was like, Oh,
everything I know is a lie because nothing happened. Yeah. Very sad. So we're kind of kid, right?
seamus coughlin
Oh, 100%.
I remember they had commercials for a drink called, I believe it was called Tang.
And in the commercial, they'd like put the straw in the drink and then the camera would go through the straw and there'd be like chimpanzees on surfboards and stuff.
It was crazy.
And so my brother Pat was like, you know, like I actually looked inside.
I got to get Tang once and I looked inside and like, that's literally what's happening.
I was like, no, dude, no way.
I was pretty little.
I was like, no way.
So then I was walking.
At the park and I saw this like crumpled up, like gross, empty tang with a straw in it.
I was like looking through it.
I was like, there's no, there's literally not a single chimpanzee.
I would have been fine with one chimpanzee.
libby emmons
Wasn't that what the astronauts took to space?
Didn't they have tang in space?
seamus coughlin
So astronauts did have those pouches.
lydia smith
They had those weird pouches.
libby emmons
But it's not, you know, just to what you were saying before about pushing a political idea on us.
It's not a political idea that they're pushing.
It's cultural.
seamus coughlin
It's both.
libby emmons
I think it's different.
I think politics, the two can have an impact on each other, but I think what's being pushed is a cultural transformation.
seamus coughlin
It's so hard for me to separate the two because disrupting the family is a huge strategy for political control.
tim pool
We have another ad brought to you by Libs of TikTok.
This time Twix sponsoring this Hall Halloween ad that for your viewing pleasure. We will now play
unidentified
Hi I'm your new nanny.
I don't need a nanny.
seamus coughlin
Got the appropriate response when a witch shows up.
tim pool
A witch?
seamus coughlin
That's right.
tim pool
I guess the lady's a witch.
lydia smith
Your parents seem to think you do.
tim pool
She broke into the house.
unidentified
Whoa.
What's your favorite color?
libby emmons
She apparated.
seamus coughlin
She was jogging, Tim.
libby emmons
Other than black.
In boots.
unidentified
Exactly.
Charcoal?
Why are you all dressed up?
It's not Halloween yet!
Can I help you?
Are you a good witch or a bad witch?
libby emmons
Do you want to find out?
tim pool
Uh, there are no good witches, so...
libby emmons
Why is this kid getting into the car with a stranger?
seamus coughlin
Also, I like how it wasn't obvious enough he's wearing a princess dress.
They both have to say it out loud.
tim pool
That's what it's about.
libby emmons
It also wasn't obvious that he was a boy.
lydia smith
You look like a girl.
unidentified
Why are you wearing that?
Dressing like this makes me feel good.
Is that your nanny?
She looks weird.
You look weird.
Your nanny looks weird.
You guys are both weird.
seamus coughlin
No, we're dressed different.
No, we don't wear dresses.
lydia smith
I wanna be friends with that kid.
unidentified
Whoa!
Whoa! Where is it coming from?
What's happening?
Ow!
tim pool
She just seriously hurt that child.
That child!
libby emmons
That's just some child abuse going on.
lydia smith
What is happening?
unidentified
We should go.
libby emmons
She read too much Kindle.
tim pool
And she knows she committed a crime, so she's like, let's get out of here.
She's it.
lydia smith
What did she do to that kid?
Bro, you know what?
tim pool
What was that?
seamus coughlin
Alright, the chimpanzees and the Tang weren't so bad.
libby emmons
I think that child needs some parents.
tim pool
Yes, I gotta clarify for everybody, we have to make this statement.
Do not use your magic powers to harm children physically because they said things that you found offensive.
unidentified
That's right.
tim pool
But think about that ad.
I mean, a lot of people are like, it's grooming children.
I'm like, it's a kid wearing a dress.
But it's more like she physically harms a child for saying mean things.
seamus coughlin
A witch harms a child for saying mean things.
tim pool
I understand no one's really going to cast a wind spell and blow a kid into the sky or something.
libby emmons
But we certainly do have activists who hurt others for saying things that they disagree with.
That is happening all the time.
tim pool
Now, apparently that was selling Twix.
I have no desire to purchase a candy cookie with caramel in it in any capacity.
In fact, I just want to get a raw steak.
seamus coughlin
Not once was I appetized.
libby emmons
Also, what I find confusing is that it's a Happy Halloween commercial, but the kid wasn't apparently in a costume.
lydia smith
Yeah.
libby emmons
What's that about?
tim pool
I don't know.
Was it after Halloween?
libby emmons
No, it was the other kid said, uh, you look weird.
She looks weird.
And it's not Halloween yet.
Why are you dressed up?
lydia smith
It's full daylight and everything.
tim pool
Well, I guess it isn't Halloween yet.
The other thing is like, that chick didn't look weird at all.
libby emmons
Also, who leaves their child sitting alone in a house wearing a princess dress watching TV susceptible to strangers?
tim pool
And then like a stranger shows up and says, I'm the nanny.
And the kid's like, I don't know about that.
And they break into the house.
unidentified
And then the kid closes the door.
libby emmons
I think this is all kinds of really bad messages.
seamus coughlin
I would agree.
tim pool
Let's start from the beginning.
libby emmons
So you got a kid, right?
tim pool
Unsupervised.
lydia smith
Strong start.
tim pool
A strange woman shows up and says, I'm your nanny.
He says, no, you're not.
I don't need a nanny.
lydia smith
Close the door.
tim pool
He just says, I don't need a nanny.
Close the door.
So his parents clearly have not conveyed to him a nanny is coming over.
He's getting a nanny.
It's just not part of the story.
She breaks in anyway.
And if the kid doesn't let her in, Where are the parents in any of this?
seamus coughlin
She did the same thing to them!
unidentified
She did the kid at the end!
seamus coughlin
She's like, I want a child.
She's like, I want to take this child to my lair!
tim pool
Don't witches eat kids?
seamus coughlin
Yes, that's what she's doing.
libby emmons
We have a culture that is intentionally driving a wedge between children and parents.
It's doing that on purpose.
seamus coughlin
Yep.
libby emmons
And now corporations are on board with that as well.
unidentified
100%.
libby emmons
That's part of, I mean, when you look even at the Biden childcare thing.
He wants, his whole administration wants children to be out of the home by 3 p.m., by three years old.
Sorry, not 3 p.m.
They want kids out of the home by three years old, being educated in state institutions, being run by teachers unions and National School Board Association members.
And they want the parents somewhere else doing anything else and not being connected to the kids or paying attention to what their children are doing or being taught.
tim pool
This ad actually aligns really well with the Loudoun County stuff.
That when they say the parents have no right to their own children.
unidentified
That is what they believe.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, exactly.
libby emmons
Yes, they do believe that.
They believe that fully.
unidentified
100%!
seamus coughlin
Well, to quote Michael Malice again, the most quoted man on this show, the most disturbing thing about socialists is not that they think your property is their property, it's that they think your children are their property.
libby emmons
Yeah, and actually I talked to a woman who is an American who is living in Norway, and she was saying that, you know how In the US, people are always like, oh, in Scandinavian countries, they have everything right on, they're really doing it right.
She was saying that because there are so many taxes paid and so much of that goes to support children and childcare and family leave and all of that, that the citizens in Norway feel a right to tell parents how to raise their kids.
seamus coughlin
Yeah.
lydia smith
Not cool.
libby emmons
Not cool.
I'd rather have zero of your money, and you get no say in how I raise my family.
seamus coughlin
They're insidious, and that's why they want to do it that way.
I mean, I think it's intentional.
tim pool
Something interesting in this commercial, too, is when the kid, he says, wearing the dress makes me feel good.
Yeah.
libby emmons
As if, like, children should just be doing whatever makes them feel good without the parents being like... Yeah, I mean, there's a reason that children are not supposed to just do what makes them feel good.
seamus coughlin
We're supposed to learn how to grow up and be productive members of society and take care of ourselves and take care of the people we We love it's like bad obviously bullying is a bad thing but to kill a child But we know when she runs she's like let's get out of here first of all hurt a child and then run away Like that's it's not a good look like fire candy.
libby emmons
It is kind of witchy.
Yeah But the thing about bullying too is I don't know about you guys but a lot of people have been bullied through cultural pressure so In school, I was very badly bullied in school, and now I don't give a flying anything of what anybody says about me at any point.
seamus coughlin
You know what I mean?
Well, it's the advantage of disadvantage.
Your struggles make you stronger.
libby emmons
Go screw yourself, everybody.
Who cares?
lydia smith
Exactly.
libby emmons
And so, I think to a certain extent, trying to protect kids from every conceivable confrontation is bad.
We shouldn't do that.
Kids need to figure out how to navigate these situations.
unidentified
Oh, 100%.
seamus coughlin
I'm 100% with you on that.
tim pool
I wonder if there are kids who will see this and then think that they can attack somebody.
lydia smith
You know what I mean?
tim pool
Like, I understand magic's not real, but the message was clearly that he was physically harmed.
And he even says, will he be coming back?
And she's like, I don't know.
lydia smith
Probably?
seamus coughlin
She's like, yeah, probably.
tim pool
Imagine if the equivalent was she just picked the kid up and threw him, like, over a fence or something.
seamus coughlin
Exactly.
libby emmons
At a certain point, I think we're going to start seeing kids just feel shame for being straight and gender conforming.
What if a little boy wants to play with trucks and wear pants and is into girls?
lydia smith
They are targeting boys.
There was an insurance company that had to take down an ad because there was a little boy who was running through a house being joyful, wearing a dress, trashing everything.
They took down this ad because it gave people the impression that they would be covering this kind of damage to a house.
They're like, this is not correct.
This is not true.
They are trying to get boys.
Because like Abigail Schreyer talks about, girls are exceedingly susceptible to this.
Boys are not.
A boy wearing a skirt in a Twix commercial might convince a little boy that this is a normal thing to do.
seamus coughlin
Well, take a look at this.
tim pool
Let me show this thing real quick.
So this is from Instagram.
This is something that I actually saw when I was browsing Reddit.
It's called Folk's Health.
And it says, Folk's Health is rewriting the script for LGBTQ plus healthcare.
unidentified
What?
tim pool
Get hormone replacement therapy delivered to the comfort of your home.
No barrier, no stigma.
libby emmons
Ooh, that doesn't seem smart.
tim pool
Well, I don't know about the legalities of this.
I know that prescription medication you have to get at a pharmacy.
So I don't know if they can deliver prescription medicine.
I have no problem with that.
My concern here is, are there going to be safeguards to make sure that underage, you know, individuals, children, Sometimes I want to try it.
this system to self-medicate without approval from their doctors.
I'm not saying they are, I'm just saying like we're seeing active promotion.
You get ads for everything and I think all of it's bad.
Like I remember, there's commercials for every drug and they're like, call your doctor and
see if this drug is right for you and I'm like, no, why?
I feel fine.
Why am I going to, I don't even know what your drug does.
seamus coughlin
Sometimes I want to try it, I'm like, I will call the doctor.
This commercial.
tim pool
I think, I think it was Lunesta.
I remember very well, the butterfly.
lydia smith
It's a luna moth.
tim pool
And I didn't know what that stuff was.
And it was like, call your doctor.
seamus coughlin
It was a sleep aid, right?
tim pool
The issue is, when you have major pharmaceuticals being like, we want to sell a drug, and whether you're a minor or not, they're telling people to buy their drug.
I've never been a fan of that.
Whether it's for hormone therapies or not, someone could call and be like, hey, I'm feeling these symptoms, and they could be like, here's some drugs.
libby emmons
Right.
tim pool
When people, not everybody has chemically imbalanced depression.
Not everybody has bipolar disorder.
Some people get depressed because of literal social problems in their lives.
That can be solved by going to a community gathering, going jogging, exercising.
And the problem is when you tell people that, they say things like, you're undermining my illness, or you're downplaying it.
There are people who say things like, yo, if you're depressed, just go for a jog.
And it's because jogging has been shown to alleviate depression.
But some people do have medical issues that result in chemical depression.
Now, I don't think we're talking about those people.
If you go to a doctor, if you're feeling bad, and they diagnose you with a chemical imbalance or something, then by all means, get the treatment you need.
But for a lot of people, it is good advice just to go and feel better.
libby emmons
And get some sunshine.
tim pool
Get some sunshine.
But guess what?
Pharmaceutical companies have got to sell.
libby emmons
I thought it was interesting that pharmaceutical companies are allowed to sell on TV, but hard alcohol companies for a long time were not allowed to sell their products on TV.
That's why we only saw beer commercials.
seamus coughlin
It is kind of crazy to advertise pharmaceuticals on television.
That should be something a doctor prescribes to you if they think it could work for you, like the idea that you would fish for customers.
libby emmons
And why don't we have weed advertisements on TV?
tim pool
Federal laws?
I will point out the hilarity, though, of me being served an ad for this.
Because ads are always targeted.
It probably has to do a lot with the stories we pull up, to be completely honest.
seamus coughlin
They're like, Tim has too much testosterone, we need to get him on some estrogen.
tim pool
Well, I've been eating a lot of steak.
No, for real.
lydia smith
It's too much steak.
tim pool
No, for real.
For the past week, I've had steak for breakfast and steak for dinner.
unidentified
Oh, that's awesome.
tim pool
Because I went to a farm, and I was like, I would like a cow.
And then they just gave me a big bag of fresh meat.
seamus coughlin
Don't have a cow, man.
tim pool
Tenderloin, man.
You've had a good tenderloin?
libby emmons
You can't buy it in the grocery store at this point.
I keep being shocked, I know this is off topic, but I keep being so shocked at how much more my same groceries are costing.
Six months ago, my same two bags of groceries were $40 and now they're $75 and I don't buy meat anymore.
So it's just going up even though I've taken all the meat out of my groceries.
tim pool
Dude, we went to a local farm and we bought, we did not buy that much meat.
The total bill was like $500.
I mean, it's good farm-fresh meat, so it's gonna be more expensive.
libby emmons
But it's expensive anyway, yeah.
tim pool
We got some tenderloins.
Yo.
libby emmons
Yeah.
tim pool
It is so good.
So we have like porterhouses, sirloins, strip steaks.
The tenderloins were gone instantly, because those are just too good.
It just melts in your mouth, right?
And then we tried cooking T-bone, and T-bone's hard to get right.
Porterhouse is pretty good because Porterhouse has got some tenderloin on it.
The sirloins are great.
The strip steaks were great, but the T-bones we just couldn't get.
seamus coughlin
Yeah.
tim pool
Really?
It's tough.
Yeah, tough.
Didn't know that.
So we're going to slow cook them.
But then we're going to go out Fridays and there's a local farm like really close and
I'm just going to be like, I will take all of your tenderloin.
I'm just going to buy all of it up.
libby emmons
Because that's just what you want.
tim pool
It's so good.
libby emmons
It's all you're eating.
tim pool
Well, I mean, you know, it's kind of crazy cause I've been, I've been cutting out all the processed garbage and I think it was Jack Posobiec who posted this photo.
It was like life America before processed food.
unidentified
And it shows like normal looking people.
tim pool
Like dude, all of the guys walking around have like six packs.
libby emmons
They all look fine.
tim pool
All the women are thin.
And then we introduced like automatic donut machines.
Have you ever seen the automatic pancake machines?
lydia smith
No.
Yeah, I've used them.
tim pool
Yeah, at hotels, you press the button, and then you watch the pancake batter go down, and then there's two heated conveyor belts that cook it, and then just falls out, and you're like, there's a fresh pancake.
lydia smith
Kinda cool.
tim pool
I don't eat any of that garbage.
So I've just been like, steak sounds good.
libby emmons
I make all that stuff.
I make fresh, I make crepes, I make waffles, I make all that stuff at home.
tim pool
Sugar is bad.
libby emmons
Well, you don't have to put sugar in it.
tim pool
No, it is sugar.
libby emmons
What is?
tim pool
Pancakes.
High glycemic.
libby emmons
That's only if you put all that stuff in it.
unidentified
No, no, no.
tim pool
It literally is.
It's high glycemic.
Yeah, flour is high glycemic.
libby emmons
Well, I'm still going to make pancakes.
tim pool
That's why I just eat beef.
I've been eating, like, just meat.
libby emmons
And I'm not eating no meat.
lydia smith
We won't get into the meat stuff.
tim pool
Let's talk about why this stuff's happening, because someone actually chatted us.
We've talked about ESG before.
It's Environmental, Social, and Governance rating.
Someone mentioned that, as we're talking about this Twix commercial and this Doritos commercial, that the reason they're doing this is because they're trying to reduce their risk as they appear to creditors.
I don't believe that.
Um, ESG ratings are legit.
They're, uh, so let me just read.
It says, um, in ESG rating measures, a company's exposure to long-term environmental, social, and governance risks.
These risks involving issues such as energy efficiency, worker safety, and board independence have financial implications, but they are often not highlighted during traditional financial reviews.
Investors who use ESG ratings to supplement financial analysis can gain a broader view of a company's long-term potential.
So there are companies that issue an ESG score.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
They're woke.
Right, a lot of them, like most companies are.
And so if you're not woke, they'll say you have a very high risk because, oh, what's that?
California says you gotta have a woman and a person of color on your board and you don't.
High risk of government intervention, bad score.
libby emmons
Right.
tim pool
So what do they do?
This other story that was breaking is that a white male who was fired from a North Carolina hospital sued for $10 million because they replaced him with a black woman.
And apparently they fired a bunch of white male executives and hired black people to replace them, and the jury was like, you can't just fire people for being white.
And apparently this dude was sitting in board meetings discussing diversity and how to help the hospital, and they fired him.
So what's happening is, for a lot of companies, in order to improve their ESG, they're doing all the green stuff, green initiatives, and they're doing all the woke stuff.
They want to have reduced risk.
But I actually think this will backfire.
For one, Doritos, with that commercial about the ghost who turned out to be gay, and the Twix thing, which has nothing to do with cookies, but it's like a boy who wears a dress.
That's high risk!
Like, if I was an investor, and I was like, Well, I have invested in companies.
I'll tell you this.
I've invested in several companies.
If they come to me and I say, what's your strategy for, like, growing the business?
And they go, well, we're a company that manufactures, you know, we refine steel.
And in these times, steel is very expensive.
I'll say, wonderful, wonderful.
Well, people need steel.
Okay.
So what's your plan for marketing?
And they go, Gender.
unidentified
Yes.
We're going to make commercials about people choosing and I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
tim pool
You're going to spend money.
lydia smith
Say what?
tim pool
That could be a dividend or could hire more people to sell an ideology having nothing to do with steel.
libby emmons
Or could increase steel production.
tim pool
or could increase steel production.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
But I think there's two things.
One, some people are worried about their scores.
This is basically social credit for corporations.
But some people just are buying this.
This is religion now.
This is the religion.
I mean, there was a time- That's their tithe.
Well, no, this is their preaching.
There was a time when this country was overwhelmingly Christian, and companies would be like, I am not going to offend the sensibilities by putting a pentagram on something, right?
Magic the Gathering has a card called Unholy Strength.
It requires swamp energy, or black mana as it's called.
Is that pretty sure?
And the character on the card is like a guy leaning back with a burning pentagram behind him.
In the early 90s a bunch of religious groups said, hey, this is offensive, you can't do that.
So they removed the art from subsequent versions.
Because there was a time when Christianity had some swing.
libby emmons
Even Tipper Gore, who was Vice President Al Gore's wife, Democrat, who forced there to be explicit warnings labels on records that she thought were, you know, offensive to her sensibilities.
tim pool
As we lose our Judeo-Christian moral framework and it is supplanted by lack thereof, you get chaos.
unidentified
Exactly.
libby emmons
It is turning into that.
Yeah.
I mean, like, that's something that's happening at Postmillennial even.
We're being targeted by, I think we talked about it before, we're being targeted by like these activists who have no moral standing in anything at all.
Just say a whole bunch of lies about us.
Advertisers believe them without looking into it at all.
tim pool
It's funny because we're getting some of that too.
libby emmons
Are you getting it, too?
Yeah, I know that Daily Wire is getting it, too, and Revolver.
tim pool
It has zero impact.
There's no impact whatsoever on us.
libby emmons
Well, we're working toward moving into a position where that's going to have zero impact.
We're getting close.
tim pool
It's just the crazy thing is that we've had some issues where these woke activists have contacted our advertisers.
And the advertisers that have an internal meeting, and they're like, we don't understand how Tim Pool is controversial.
I've had conversations where they're like, they were actually really worried at first, and then they looked at the site and then did research into you, and they were confused as to what the activists were claiming.
And I was like, so what's their conclusion?
They were like, they made a mistake.
libby emmons
Well, you have people who are actually looking into it.
A lot of advertisers, a lot of companies, they don't even think about it.
They just say, OK, we're out.
seamus coughlin
Well, yeah, we're good.
unidentified
It's sad.
Sorry.
seamus coughlin
It's very sad.
libby emmons
Please forgive me, mea culpa.
seamus coughlin
Well, it's because they're not incentivized to, right?
Because even if what the person is saying about you is a total lie, and even if the advertiser knows it's a total lie, if they still think it's going to hurt their bottom line to work with you, they're going to cut you loose.
libby emmons
Right.
Or if they just don't care enough to figure it out.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
So I'll say two things.
For one, one of the sponsors of the show is a VPN company, Virtual Shield.
We shout them out all the time.
It could be really bad for their business. So there was a was it surf shark? Yeah. Yeah
So I'll say two things for one one of the sponsors of the show is a VPN company virtual shield
We shot them out all the time, but that's just full disclosure because it has nothing to do with them
I'm only saying that because I don't want this to be viewed as a conflict of interest.
But Surfshark is a VPN and they sold out you guys, right?
They canceled on you because one guy tweeted like Andy Ngo was a bad person.
libby emmons
Right.
Yeah, and Andy Ngo is a crime reporter and this person commits crimes.
unidentified
Here's what needs to happen.
tim pool
Don't buy Doritos!
We won't.
We won't.
libby emmons
And I won't eat them.
Don't buy Twix.
tim pool
And who owns Twix?
Mars?
libby emmons
Is it Mars?
unidentified
I don't know.
libby emmons
What else do they make?
tim pool
Everything.
Stop buying from these companies.
And Surfshark, cancel your subscription to them.
Because the left does.
libby emmons
Yeah, and conservatives for too long have just gone along with this, being like, well, whatever, I do my own thing, I'll consume whatever products I want.
And there hasn't been a lot of activism on that side, or even just on the side of people who want to uphold things like I got an idea.
rights, you know, they're not going around telling everyone what to do and how to live
their lives.
But you can act with your own, you know, your own pocketbook.
tim pool
I got an idea.
Here's the activism that we need.
It's not about a conservative.
It's not about being independent.
It's not about being libertarian.
Here's here's the activism the right really needs.
Stop eating sugar.
unidentified
Yes.
tim pool
No, no, no, no.
I'm not saying all sugar do keto.
I'm saying cut out the cookies.
lydia smith
Yes.
libby emmons
No more, no more garbage.
tim pool
No more garbage.
You should be, when you go to the store, I tell you this man, meat is expensive, but you, you, you, you got to understand how much you're wasting on these sugary coffee drinks from Starbucks.
Don't go to Starbucks anymore.
Why?
What do they have to offer you?
A bottle of water?
Okay, fine.
Fine.
We've replaced all of our plastic bottles with glass bottles that we put our own filtered water in now because I'm like, it's time to put up or shut up.
I'm eating better, I'm cutting out the donuts, the sugary garbage, the candy, the- all that crap.
Imagine this, that photo that Jack Posobiec posted of all of these people walking around just in shape.
Why?
Because food was real.
unidentified
Yes.
tim pool
Imagine that the left can be sickly, body positive or whatever you want to call it, unwell, suffering in their minds, and the one thing that you can do Get in shape, start exercising, cut out the candy, cut out the Doritos, cut out the Starbucks.
These are companies that are selling you out and using your money to promote ridiculous ideologies that don't even sell their product.
So don't support them.
This is what I'm saying, right?
libby emmons
That makes a lot of sense.
tim pool
I would not eat a Dorito right now if you were to pay me for it.
Why?
Because I'm on a diet.
And it doesn't mean I'm on a diet to lose weight, it means I'm on a specific regimen of the food that I eat for a specific reason.
unidentified
Yeah, of course.
tim pool
Fresh vegetables, fresh fruits, meats.
I'm not eating the garbage processed crap anymore.
unidentified
Yeah.
libby emmons
Yeah, I don't have it in my house.
I don't buy that stuff for my kid.
I just don't want it.
We have sweets.
I'm certainly never going to give up sweets, but I make cookies.
I make cookies at home.
lydia smith
You make it yourself.
libby emmons
Yeah, I made banana bread muffins this week and we were very excited.
seamus coughlin
It's funny because conservatives won't really mobilize in that way often.
I'm hoping that changes.
I'm hoping we can convince people not to purchase these products because that's what needs to happen.
I just find it hilarious that I mean, the radical left spent a summer burning down cities, people died.
This is a very energetic and mobilized group of people, to put it kindly.
For all these cries you hear on the left about conservatives are so dangerous and they're going to ride and kill people.
And like, we can't even get conservatives to stop eating Twix bars.
Like, I don't think that they're that much of a threat, unfortunately.
tim pool
This is really, really simple.
You don't need to remember a list of companies not to buy from.
You don't need to go to the store and go, Oh, Pepsi.
Are we boycotting Pepsi?
All you need to do is say, I eat farm fresh meats, cheeses, and veggies.
seamus coughlin
Yeah.
Done.
tim pool
And then when you go to the store and you're like, which candy bar was I boycotting?
All of them.
They poison your mind.
They're bad for you.
seamus coughlin
And also, I just want to, I just want to clarify what I'm saying.
Like not a threat.
I'm saying conservatives do need to be a threat in the sense that corporations need to understand that we are a large consumer block and their business can suffer if they upset us.
If they walk all over us, if they try to insult us.
libby emmons
I'm just thinking about organization.
tim pool
100%.
But not if the approach is you focus on yourself.
libby emmons
No, I mean to boycott some of the companies that are taking these behaviors, not just the food companies.
It's easy to say, I'm not gonna buy chips.
There's a lot of that kind of stuff I was never buying anyway.
I was never the target audience for the Doritos ad, because I've literally never bought a Dorito.
tim pool
It's time to start... Look, Daily Wire is doing it, and we're definitely doing it.
They're way bigger than we are, but producing culture.
libby emmons
I think that's so important.
tim pool
We need to get to the point where it's like, no, no, no, don't, don't, don't watch Disney.
Watch, you know, Daily Wire's new show.
Watch Timcast.
seamus coughlin
But that should take some years.
No more Disney.
Dude, we've got some stuff we could produce.
unidentified
You know what I mean?
tim pool
We got, we got two shows so far.
We have four, four total shows.
On TimGuest.com.
A fifth show is in production right now.
We're doing trials and auditions and test runs for a pop culture show.
There's a lot of pop culture stuff to talk about.
libby emmons
We're doing a lot of great podcasts at Post Millennial.
We have this one, Cancel This, Dinesh D'Souza was just on.
Oh, that's awesome.
tim pool
But here's the thing.
libby emmons
We have, we actually, I think we apparently have Ari Hoffman doing an interview with Donald Trump
tomorrow night.
seamus coughlin
Oh, wow.
tim pool
That is good.
libby emmons
And it's on our Rumble channel.
This is more political content.
Right, right.
tim pool
And podcasts are still very much right-wing conservative, whatever, like talk radio.
That's why we do the Cast Castle vlog every day.
We have an animator who makes silly jokes, like the shirt we just sold.
Step on Snek and find out.
Go to TimCast.com.
Actually, do I still have it?
Yeah, yeah, here, check it out.
Step on Snek and find out.
This amazing t-shirt you can get by going to TimCast.com and clicking Store, and then scroll down.
It's on the bottom.
We gotta rearrange it better.
But this will soon be up on the YouTube as well.
This is from one of the vlog episodes we made where Kent, who's the animator, had a t-shirt that Luke was wearing.
It said, Step on Snack and Find Out, something he made up.
And so we were like, let's make that shirt.
It's just silly and funny.
Look at that angry, cute little snake.
lydia smith
So cute.
tim pool
All angry about it.
And it's just a silly gag.
It's meant to be silly, like, you know, Step on Snack.
And so that's, the vlog is something conservatives don't do.
What does The Daily Wire have?
Podcast, podcast, podcast, podcast, podcast.
libby emmons
But now they have the movie.
Now they're doing a movie.
tim pool
A movie.
libby emmons
Yeah.
tim pool
And they're doing more.
unidentified
Good.
tim pool
Sitcoms.
libby emmons
You have to start.
You have to start somewhere.
tim pool
Stand-up, sitcoms, all of that.
libby emmons
I'm actually... I've been talking about... Let's Go Brandon, that song being on the top of the charts is a pretty good indication that there's a market for this.
tim pool
And I'm talking to people about comedy specials.
libby emmons
Oh, great.
tim pool
We want a TimCast exclusive comedy special.
unidentified
We want more shows.
libby emmons
Did you see that Jim Brewer one?
I saw a clip of it.
I don't know when it was from.
But basically somebody sneezed in the audience and he jokingly set off an alarm.
unidentified
Like, oh no!
libby emmons
It was really funny.
seamus coughlin
We also, speaking of culture, there's this really awesome channel that makes animated political cartoons.
Oh, really?
Which I think is a great thing to be doing right now.
It's called Freedom Tunes, if you guys just want to check that out.
tim pool
But Seamus, as I have told you, you need a pop culture version of that.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, no, I want to do that.
We've been, I've been, well, I don't want to.
Why are we doing much away?
Yeah, we will.
I don't want to give too much away.
unidentified
100%.
seamus coughlin
I don't want to give too much.
You and I should talk about it after the show.
Got some ideas.
But we also, there's another show.
I'm surprised you didn't mention the sixth show.
Timcast is launching Love, Dr. Seamus.
unidentified
That's right.
seamus coughlin
We had a whole conversation about this.
libby emmons
What is Love, Dr. Seamus?
seamus coughlin
Well, I give Timber!
tim pool
Here's the pitch.
Here's the pitch.
libby emmons
It's Seamus.
tim pool
He takes calls, and every single time someone calls asking for advice, he advises them to go to church.
seamus coughlin
Go to church, or I have a couple of prayers.
I'm thinking like anytime anyone called me with any kind of problem with the relationship, I'll be like, just break up.
Is the headache for you?
You don't have to worry about it?
tim pool
Can you save the relationship?
Yes, you go to church.
seamus coughlin
All right, you go to church.
Go to church.
What you guys need to do is go to church.
There you go.
No, we love Dr. Seamus.
I mean, look, I think it's got staying power.
I think people would love to watch something like that.
tim pool
What if we did like a full series, like a 13 episode arc of an animated show?
seamus coughlin
I would love to do that.
You kidding me?
I'd love to do that.
I've got, like, ideas up the wazoo for animated series.
Let's do it.
Yeah, 100%.
tim pool
Let's do 20 minute episodes.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, let's do it.
You guys heard it here.
Tim committed.
unidentified
That's right.
tim pool
Are you joking?
unidentified
Of course I did.
Of course I did.
Yeah.
Because we've been talking with- I do think Timber should be- Timber insults me.
seamus coughlin
Because here's the thing.
Tim's nice to be on camera, right?
But behind the scenes, he's constantly insulting me, throwing things at me, even.
And I don't mean ideas.
lydia smith
You do like to bully Shane.
libby emmons
No, he's doing it with the witch's hat.
He's just got this wind.
seamus coughlin
The other day, I told Tim, him and his nanny looked weird and he went... And there you were in your princess dress.
libby emmons
You should post your profile picture in the princess dress on Tinder.
seamus coughlin
Speaking of posting pictures, Lydia posted a picture of me on top of the RV, right?
And she tweeted it out.
I didn't know she was going to tweet it.
I didn't actually care, but I thought it would be funny to tweet, like, this is doxing.
I didn't give you permission to post this, you know?
lydia smith
Oh, yeah.
Sorry, sorry.
seamus coughlin
No, no, no.
I didn't care.
But people started commenting, and I guess the tweet was performing well, so it started showing it to a bunch of people, including people who have no idea who I am.
And I was getting so many angry comments from people, like, I have no idea who you are!
Why am I seeing this in my feed right now?
They were, like, viscerally angry.
I was like, someone was like, who the hell are you?
Why am I seeing this?
I was like, I don't write the algorithm.
I don't know.
Like, I don't know why you're seeing this.
For you to see this?
It was all because Lydia doxed me.
lydia smith
I had no idea that my bullying could go onto Twitter and cause trouble for Seamus there too.
seamus coughlin
I got cancelled by Lids.
lydia smith
I'm very proud of myself right now.
seamus coughlin
Could you bully Twix?
tim pool
I was talking before about doing weekly comics, like making our own version of Shonen Jump.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Where we just get like, you know, we publish one comic every week, and then we do like four different series or something.
And then we can make like a magazine.
With Tales from the Inverted World, we're actually making books.
unidentified
Oh, cool.
tim pool
This is really exciting.
Yeah, I'm so excited.
libby emmons
I think it's great what you guys are doing, too, because I love what Daily Wire is doing, bringing that out, and they're doing sort of a Hollywood-style version of that.
But I feel like what's needed is indie culture, you know?
unidentified
100%.
libby emmons
Non-left-woke indie culture that's focused on actually making funny things, beautiful things, real art things, you know?
So I've been traveling a lot during the pandemic.
Because screw everything, like I may as well.
And I was recently in Nashville for a Daily Wire thing, and we were out on the glorious, spectacular music row, crazy honky tonk street, Broadway, right?
And it was a Saturday night.
College football was mobbed.
There were like thousands and thousands of college children out there puking on each other and hooking up and doing whatever else they're doing.
And, you know, five years ago, I would have said, oh, this is really disgusting.
I hate everybody.
But now I was just like, look at the glory of life.
And the next day I did what I always do when I go to a new city.
I went to the art museum and I I'd had a great time so far in Nashville.
I'd barely been there a day, but it was wonderful.
It was open, mask free, no one demanding to see my vaccine papers.
Right.
Nothing like this.
So, I go to the art museum, and the first thing I see outside of the frist is a big sign that says I need a timed ticket reserved online, I need to socially distance, and I need to wear a mask.
And so I go in, and it's empty.
There's hardly anybody in there.
All of the art was curatorially discussed only in terms of its political value, its social justice value.
unidentified
Really?
libby emmons
Yeah, there was an Art Deco exhibit that was all about, you know, the workers of the WPA.
But it was a, there was a ball gown and they're telling me workers of the WPA.
And I'm like, this is, what are you doing?
They're sequins.
What are you talking about?
And the massive disconnect between these two cultural events was shocking and I knew exactly which one I wanted to be part of.
And I love art, right?
Like I'm a snobby art person.
I knew exactly that I would rather be puked on on Broadway by drunk-ass college students than stuck in the Frist Art Museum with no one making eye contact because we're all like this and terrified of each other reading political diatribes from curators.
seamus coughlin
What she's saying is she would prefer Let's Go Brandon to Adele.
libby emmons
That's true, too.
lydia smith
Yes.
libby emmons
And I've not even heard either of them.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, exactly.
Well, here's the thing.
I also think it's a very good point that we need indie culture.
I think it's good that The Daily Wire is stepping out into this.
I think anytime an organization wants to make content that promotes our values, if they do a decent job of it, that's good.
I'm here for it.
But there is something about Individual creators putting something together in an independent fashion where they don't have, you know, large investors behind it.
Again, I'm not saying that's necessarily a bad thing, but it's also really important and healthy to have that indie culture vibe as well.
libby emmons
I love that stuff.
That's the kind of art I always made.
That's what I like.
I like weird art.
tim pool
We gotta do it.
The challenge is... We'll do it.
seamus coughlin
I've got some ideas.
tim pool
Quality control is really difficult.
seamus coughlin
Well, nothing I make is quality, so throw that out the window, buddy.
tim pool
Marketing is very difficult.
We can make good shows, but getting them out there.
It's like, we do have a big audience, but the audience size for a podcast
versus translating that to something else is very, very difficult.
Right, so the vlog gets 25K views per day, maybe 30,000 total, and it's a video format.
Most of the people who watch and listen are here for high-level information,
conversation, podcast format.
So if we're gonna get into a comedy special, Probably not as well.
But we have to just start building it up and then hopefully over time, you know, it'll take off.
So what we're doing with Tales from the Inverted World, the first series of articles that Shane has made are kind of like ideas and introductory.
And now he's got a bunch of ghost stories from the Confederacy, from like Sherman's march to the sea, the lost gold, the conspiracies.
So these are gonna be different books.
Like a legit full book of horror anthology, ghost stories, history you can buy and read.
So we're going to be doing everything.
I also talked to a company about turning it into a TV show.
seamus coughlin
About what?
About turning what?
tim pool
Tales from the Inverted World.
seamus coughlin
That's awesome.
tim pool
Taking these stories that are non-fiction and using those to make a fiction version.
seamus coughlin
I was actually, I was just on Shane's show the other day.
He invited me.
We started talking religion and then he asked me, he's like, would you like to do the show?
Because I think we could have a good conversation.
It was really cool.
It was really cool.
Great time talking to him.
Very smart guy, very engaging.
tim pool
So it's basically, we have two shows.
The main show, Tales from the Inverted World, is like Shane writes an essay and a story and then talks about it and explores his ideas.
He went down to Georgia and investigated the lost Confederate gold, the conspiracies around that, ghost stories, UFOs.
And then the members only version is the discussion about these ideas and the weird and the paranormal and things like that.
And so I think we've got like three we're about to put up.
And then it's like a different, it's similar ideas, different show, but it's gonna be for members.
libby emmons
With comics, you know what you could do?
You could just ask people to send in tapes.
seamus coughlin
Oh, yeah.
tim pool
Tapes?
libby emmons
Yeah, just like ask, you know, just put out an open call.
And you know, and that way, you're not paying any attention to ideology, you're just paying attention to good comedy.
And you could say, hey, you know, if you're a comic out there, and you want to send us five minutes or three minutes, whatever it is, and then we'll see who gets to have a special.
tim pool
I think we can do a sitcom very easily.
It's relatively cheap.
Animated shows get way more expensive.
libby emmons
Animated shows are expensive, but you could just do like a standup show and you could feature comics who are not breaking through.
I mean, the gatekeepers of arts and entertainment culture are these wokesters.
They're in these positions of power in every single area from, you know, comedy to drama to sitcoms or whatever.
they're sitting there with the power.
And you can bypass that by just going directly to the artists who are out there in the world
and saying like, what do you got?
Like, send it on over.
tim pool
We're gonna get to it, but for now, we'll get to Super Chat.
So if you haven't already, smash that like button, subscribe to the channel, go to TimCast.com, become a member for all that awesome members-only content.
Now, I'll tell you this.
We've got a couple episodes of The Green Room, which is a Friday show, which is the bonus content where we're downstairs hanging out in the green room.
And the last episode was Viva and Barnes hanging out with everybody.
It's much less topical.
It's just like us chillin'.
And then we have the Castcastle bonus vlog, which is from the event we did on Saturday.
So, we're starting to produce way more content for members.
I'm really excited about Tales from the Inverted World, because this is like the first official non-timcast, like non-timpool property we're expanding into, where it's Shane's hosting it, a team is producing this, they're really great at what they do, there's art, there's like a hundred plus different images per episode, and they're creepy, amazing drawings.
And we're going to NFT them.
You know, we're doing a bunch of ways to build culture and create memories.
Let me tell you guys something real quick before we do Super Chats.
I was at this seminar, it's like a lecture.
The guy was talking about marketing and how you effectively market.
And he says, there's a reason why you sell merch at a show with like a band.
It's not to make money.
It's so that the people who are there, who have a memory, I came here with my friends, we saw this band play.
And then you say, here's their shirt, they buy it.
One day they go in their closet, and as they're moving their shirts, they see that, and they remember that night.
You are giving them a piece of that memory they can never lose and they will always remember exactly what it meant and where it came from.
That's what you're actually selling to people.
And so we talked about the importance of selling literally anything and everything you can, especially unique items, right?
So like the Gorilla, for instance, or like Ian's Obsidian Stones, we're going to be selling this stuff periodically so that people will have one-of-a-kind items to remember, you know, what they watched, why they enjoyed, things like that.
So, this is why we're going to be doing NFTs, this is why we're going to be doing auctions, all of that stuff.
That being said, let's read some superchats.
seamus coughlin
Can I address one of these?
Which one?
I just noticed my name is from JR.
tim pool
Oh, snap.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
seamus coughlin
So, first of all, thank you so much for your superchat, JR.
What they said was, Shamus, you gotta lay off the pagans.
We aren't inherently your enemy.
So what I want to say here is I love you as an individual person and my goal here, and I like to joke and play around, but my goal here is not for somebody who believes something differently than me to walk away feeling like I dislike them or don't care about them.
tim pool
He's lying.
seamus coughlin
Well, except for Tim.
I don't care how Tim feels about anything, but I want you to know this.
I care too much about you to not question beliefs you have that I think are wrong.
And I believe that paganism is wrong.
tim pool
So that's what I'll say.
I tried having a simple and open conversation with Seamus about my religion and the hollow earth and the lizard people that live inside of it, but he was just insulting me.
seamus coughlin
The hollow earth part was fine, but when you start coming at me talking about climate change...
tim pool
No, no, no.
I watched that show Inside Job, Luke talked about.
It was pretty funny.
Second episode's way funnier than the first.
It's C+, B-, but it's funny.
libby emmons
I don't know this show.
tim pool
It's a show about conspiracy theories.
The second episode, a bunch of JFK clones get released, and so they have to get Grassy Knoll, his name is, to hunt them down and stop them.
unidentified
Too soon.
tim pool
There's a bunch of JFKs walking around.
They're like, we need his help.
seamus coughlin
Too soon.
tim pool
It's too soon.
All right.
unidentified
All right.
tim pool
Christina H says, Rage on behalf of the machines, greatest hits, shilling in the name, opposites of punk, and shills on parade.
I'm going to write those songs.
lydia smith
Those are great.
tim pool
And we'll record them.
lydia smith
I'm writing this down.
tim pool
Yeah, write them down.
libby emmons
This is a good idea.
tim pool
I'll go to Carter, who's our music producer, and be like, I need these versions to be recorded, like these songs to be recorded with these alternate lyrics.
Shilling in the name of, you better do what they tell you.
lydia smith
That's right.
tim pool
All right, let's see.
Eric A. says, the Let's Go Brandon songs have been gone from the iTunes app Top Songs since, at minimum, yesterday.
I had to search them out specifically.
Posted an image to Patriots.win.
Let's Go Brandon.
libby emmons
I see them right here, though, on the app.
tim pool
Yeah, but Libby checked and she's got them maybe refreshed or something?
lydia smith
Weird.
libby emmons
They're just, they're right here.
tim pool
Jeremy Hall says, Tim Crew, have you listened to the music of Tom McDonald?
Any chances of getting him on the show?
We absolutely have, and I have talked to him on the phone and, you know, about a couple things.
Maybe?
lydia smith
Have you noticed how busy he is?
tim pool
Right.
lydia smith
Yes.
tim pool
There's a lot of very big, famous people we'd love to have on the show, you know?
Chance Jones says, hey, I told Loza Alexander was legit.
Let's Go Biden hit 3.7 million on YouTube, and he was on number one before Adele's song came out.
Also, Bryson just hopping on the Let's Go Brandon wave because it's trending.
Loza did it first.
Loza gang.
I mean, for sure.
And Loza's got the bigger songs.
Like, they've got more of them, but Bryson hit number one.
But, you know, mad respect to everybody.
Anybody who wants to chant Let's Go Brandon, I'm down with.
lydia smith
They're my team.
unidentified
Yep.
tim pool
says Trump is attending World Series Game 4 in Georgia. It's gonna rain. Let's go, Brandon,
unidentified
Satire?
tim pool
in the ATL. All right. Trash Panda says, clearly we are winning. Memes, mockery, and comedy are
our weapons. Yep. Satire, sarcasm. Chris P. Bacon says Casey Kasem was also the voice of Scooby-Doo.
libby emmons
That's right.
tim pool
Was it Scooby-Doo?
Someone said Shaggy.
seamus coughlin
It was Shaggy.
unidentified
Was it?
libby emmons
Yeah.
Oh, I don't know.
That's right.
He was on there, wasn't he?
lydia smith
I'm gonna look it up now.
unidentified
Curious.
libby emmons
The thing, though, about satire and all of that is it's getting fact-checked.
lydia smith
I know!
seamus coughlin
Yeah, exactly.
libby emmons
It's not too bad.
And the AFP, which is a global fact-checking organization, came out and said that it was right to fact-check satire because it's hard to tell the difference these days.
seamus coughlin
Well, maybe.
tim pool
Well, that's more indicative of a very serious cultural problem.
seamus coughlin
So I did a video about this a while ago, the fact-checking that was occurring via Snopes and the Babylon Bee, and Snopes tried to justify their fact-checking by releasing a study which showed that something like in some cases up to 30% of conservatives believed that this Babylon Bee article was true.
What they actually did Was they took a number of Babylon Bee articles, removed them from the context of having been produced by a satire outlet, and then they reworded the headlines to take the jokes, and then just stated them as if they were factual.
tim pool
So it was like, one of them is, you know, Joe Biden dons umbrella cap and then claims, you know, free money for everyone.
and then they take out the context and they put Joe Biden offers plan
to give Americans free money.
seamus coughlin
Or one was, is that real?
tim pool
And people are like, oh, it sounds real, I guess.
seamus coughlin
One that they fact checked.
libby emmons
But they actually did do that.
tim pool
Well, that wasn't a specific example.
seamus coughlin
So you believe it was satire.
libby emmons
It did happen, that did happen.
seamus coughlin
So one concrete example was, it was something like,
oh man, it was a parody of an argument evangelicals will make about creation,
but it was something like Don Lemon said that proof that collusion didn't happen was like made to
test our faith or so.
It was an obvious joke, and they reworded it to say, Don Lemon has openly stated that nothing could make him change his mind about Russiagate, and then asked people if that was a real headline.
It's like, that's completely dishonest.
libby emmons
Yeah.
tim pool
That's how they work?
unidentified
Mhm.
tim pool
Alright, Daniel Generelli says, waking up to a text from Tim's girlfriend Sunday morning equals, I'm living in a simulation.
Seriously though, huge thanks to Allison and everyone who signed my board.
Can't wait to mount it on my office wall, I had so much fun, you're all cool, and P.S.
Ian, I hope you enjoyed the treats left with Chris.
So this was, uh, the event we had.
unidentified
Oh nice.
tim pool
The event on Saturday was very, very fun.
Very fun.
And, um, we're planning another, um, possibly another event soon of some sort.
Very soon.
Too soon.
Too soon.
It's very hard to organize.
We'll see though.
We'll see if we can pull this off.
I don't want to say too much.
Nashville.
Oh, excuse me.
seamus coughlin
What was that?
unidentified
Nashville.
seamus coughlin
Are you sick?
You didn't tell me you were sick.
tim pool
Nashville.
unidentified
What?
All right.
tim pool
Let's see.
All right, so this is Super Chat from 20485742895729875.
Let's go, Brandon has medical misinformation because it starts off with a part of speech by Biden claiming that if you get the vaccine, you won't get COVID.
seamus coughlin
Oh my goodness.
lydia smith
Incredible.
tim pool
Well Biden is wrong and he's sowing disinformation.
seamus coughlin
Speaking of Biden sowing disinformation, I released a video, yes I'm shilling for myself once again, called Biden Debates Biden's Vaccine Mandate.
We were able to find audio clips of Biden like diametrically opposed to himself on the vaccine issue when Trump was in office versus now.
So just watch that to entertain yourself and also be informed on Biden's new stance.
libby emmons
Yes.
seamus coughlin
We didn't put Kamala Harris in the video, but I saw a number of her statements under the Trump administration.
It's really funny.
libby emmons
It's really funny.
And then also you had in April, Biden saying that wearing a mask was a patriotic duty.
And now just recently he was slammed for wandering all around Virginia, shaking everyone's hands with his, you know, snot nose.
seamus coughlin
Kissing their hands, wiping his nose on their hands when he kisses them.
libby emmons
Sniffing people.
No mask.
No mask.
tim pool
Oh, man.
All right.
Frog Boogers says, Tim, in 1000 Ways to Die IMDb cast, in Season 5, Episode 4, Death Takes a Vacation, you are labeled as pedestrian.
unidentified
Oh!
tim pool
Well, that's wrong.
seamus coughlin
That's pretty rude that they would call you pedestrian like that.
tim pool
I don't even know what content's higher level, but... We filmed two.
One where the mime kills himself by eating a pickle, and the other where the cop does by dropping his gun and picking it up wrong.
lydia smith
Shameless.
We're not pedestrian.
seamus coughlin
No, I know.
That's what I'm saying.
unidentified
All right.
tim pool
Cole Will says, it's a big white pill for me to know that protest music is making a comeback.
Most Vietnam protest era artists are either all dead or they got the government they wanted.
Except Clapton and Van Morrison.
seamus coughlin
Please read the Chop Block Podcast super chat right there.
tim pool
The Chop Block Podcast says, I see Tim Pool is a guest again on ShimCast, but in all seriousness, love you guys and all you do and hey Lids and Libby.
Mark Amenderis says, Green Day's unreleased album you mentioned was scrapped because the master recordings were stolen slash lost.
When they restarted, they made American Idiot.
I don't believe it!
I never believed it.
unidentified
Oh, wow.
tim pool
So they did the new Warning, where it was like pop rock.
And then people ragged on him saying like, you're not punk rock.
lydia smith
Oh, they stole our stuff.
Dog ate my homework.
tim pool
Right.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
Oh, our new album.
They're probably looking at it and it was all like bubblegum and they're like, oops.
And so then they were like, we're punk rock.
We're going to complain about America.
libby emmons
They should have just released it.
I mean, the Ramones were bubblegum punk.
That worked for them.
tim pool
Yeah, you know.
All right, Steve Ortlip, we want Biden bops.
Take my money.
seamus coughlin
Ooh, yeah, well, let me tell you, we have Biden bops on Freedom Tunes.
It's a cartoon we did.
Maybe I'll make a full version, but y'all got to go check that video out.
It's called Sing with Joe Biden.
tim pool
All right.
Dialogue equals progress says, on diversity, equity, and inclusion, I consult companies and many HR departments are pursuing this because they want to take advantage of cultural differences and diversity of thought to progress faster than the competition.
The only problem is they all have it's homogeneity of thought, not diversity.
Yeah.
Orion Galaxy says Crowder shot his 1 million subscriber plaque full of holes and hanged it.
You should do the same if YouTube ever strikes you down or bans you.
unidentified
Dang.
tim pool
I do have an extra one.
Because we have three and then I got sent a duplicate for some reason.
They accidentally sent me two.
seamus coughlin
Can I put my name on it so I can just pretend that I have a million subscribers?
tim pool
But it's funny that Luke never got his silver medal.
lydia smith
Yeah, other people never got theirs.
seamus coughlin
So I didn't get mine.
I didn't get mine for a while.
And then I sent them a photoshopped meme.
You know, the one of Timmy Turner's dad was like, here's where I'd put blank if I had.
I did one, but I photoshopped my cartoon character's face.
And I was like, I would put my play button here if I had one.
And I sent that to them and they responded.
They're like, We're so sorry you didn't have one when we set up.
True.
unidentified
Amazing.
seamus coughlin
I put a little text in the email, but yeah, I sent them that meme.
tim pool
This is where I'd put my silver medal if I had one.
If I had one.
All right, let's see.
Jack T. Great says, when I show you this picture, do you see a yellow dress or let's go Brandon?
unidentified
Ha ha.
seamus coughlin
Got him.
tim pool
Let's see.
Blind Owl says, a slow clap to Luke in Freedom Tunes for that Biden's Greatest Hits short.
It made me genuinely laugh.
seamus coughlin
Thank you so much.
Why Luke?
tim pool
Well, because Luke's the one who did all the work.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, Luke did the Freedom Tunes video.
unidentified
That's true, yeah.
seamus coughlin
I love Luke, but he was not involved with that.
tim pool
Yeah, I was confused by that.
I'm like, Luke had nothing to do with that.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, thank you.
I'm so glad you liked that cartoon.
lydia smith
It was Seamus, though.
unidentified
Yeah, it was Seamus.
tim pool
All right, let's see.
What do we get?
seamus coughlin
Oh, maybe he was saying shout-out to Luke, comma, and Seamus for this.
lydia smith
Okay, that makes sense.
seamus coughlin
Luke's going to be so mad when he finds out I stole his cartoon.
tim pool
There's a slow clap to Luke in Freedom Tune for that Biden Greatest Hits.
lydia smith
Huh.
tim pool
All right, let's see.
Audrey's Visual Arts says, Seamus as a villain would be a formidable opponent.
As brilliant as he is on Kyle's defense, can you imagine if the MSM had someone on the staff that smart?
Thankfully, he's on our side.
seamus coughlin
That's very kind of you.
Thank you.
I think they have plenty of people on their side as smart as me.
They're all pretty dumb.
lydia smith
Yeah.
unidentified
Seamus.
seamus coughlin
They're all pretty dumb.
tim pool
All right, let's see what we got.
Ray says fascism started in earnest with the Patriot Act.
Sounds about right.
libby emmons
Yeah, that was pretty bad.
tim pool
Kev says Casey Kasem voiced Shaggy in the Scooby-Doo cartoons from 1969 to 2012.
unidentified
Wow.
lydia smith
Old guy.
175.
Yeah.
tim pool
Greg Duvier says, Shamus, why do you only promote Freedom Tunes when you also have Common Sense Soapbox?
unidentified
Because the Super Chatters will promote it for me, clearly.
seamus coughlin
Oh, look at that!
So Common Sense Soapbox is a channel that I've been running.
It's a series I started producing with the Foundation for Economic Education about five years ago.
And we launched a channel for it about a year ago.
So yeah, feel free to check out Common Sense Soapbox with Seamus Coggan.
Freedom Tunes is my main channel, so I do most of the promoting for that one.
And Common Sense Soapbox is a joint venture currently, so... Right on.
lydia smith
Very cool.
seamus coughlin
But yeah, check it out!
We just did a very informative video on the budget and how it is a myth to say that we could cut the defense budget to pay for all the social welfare spending people want.
tim pool
We actually don't have enough.
seamus coughlin
So check that video out on comments in soapbox if you'd like.
tim pool
Jonah Davidoff says, call chief diversity officers what they are, commissars.
There you go.
Yeller B says, hey Tim Poole and gang, what's your opinion on these meme coins and the reason people are flooding into it?
Do you think it says something about society's opinion, faith, on the US dollar?
I just found a coin.
I wonder if other people will buy some as an FU.
Yeah, people are spamming certain coins.
I don't shout them out because if there's no real functional utility, or like, Ethereum has a function.
Some other tokens have functions.
Bitcoin has a function.
Bitcoin's mostly first and best dressed.
A lot of these other tokens that are built off of Ethereum don't do anything.
And people are just trying to justify why they want everyone to buy it so they can make a quick buck and then sell it.
That's the way it is.
lydia smith
Pump and dump.
tim pool
Pump and dump.
Sergeant Wilkie says, companies are charging employees because they are unvaccinated.
My employer is charging $100 a month, and I read an article, LA workers charged $130 a week, just returned from Hawaii, and all restaurants required Vax ID, location of stay, or a negative test every 48 hours.
seamus coughlin
I wonder what the Party of Workers' Rights is gonna have to say about that.
unidentified
Very little.
libby emmons
Yeah, they're into it.
They like this kind of segregation.
Then they're totally on board with it, even though in New York, anyway, the majority of people who are unvaccinated are black New Yorkers.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, right.
libby emmons
But that's not racist.
Everything is systemically racist, except vaccine enforcement.
seamus coughlin
Exactly.
Anytime you have a disproportionate outcome between two groups of people, it's racism.
Except for this.
libby emmons
Except for vaccine enforcement.
tim pool
Yeah.
Gail Reinoff says, Love you, Tim and crew.
Can you paint the screws on your book display shelf black?
They are very distracting and takes away from the classy shelf.
I am 64 and watch you every night.
Thank you very much, Gail.
unidentified
That's a good point.
tim pool
It's the shelf behind you.
lydia smith
Yeah.
Oh, she's right.
tim pool
The screws are very obvious and distracting.
lydia smith
Paint it black?
tim pool
No, I think it looks good.
seamus coughlin
Well, no, it's for when guests have something to promote.
libby emmons
Oh, that's handy.
tim pool
That's why it's there.
It was, uh, was it John R.' 's idea?
lydia smith
Yes, a super chatter.
unidentified
That's right.
lydia smith
Brilliant.
libby emmons
That's a great idea.
unidentified
Brilliant.
seamus coughlin
That's a good idea.
libby emmons
I should have put something back there.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, why didn't you tell the guests about it?
unidentified
I know.
lydia smith
Usually we put the alpaca there.
seamus coughlin
You didn't tell me about it either.
lydia smith
Yeah, put the gorilla there.
libby emmons
You know what, I'll do this just...
lydia smith
Beautiful.
tim pool
Our water bottle.
lydia smith
That's very decorative and I like it.
tim pool
So we stopped doing plastic water bottles.
unidentified
Yeah.
seamus coughlin
Good for you.
tim pool
We decided to buy some glass ones we can clean and then we fill it with our own 18-stage filtered water.
lydia smith
Yeah, I gotta wash that tonight.
tim pool
18 stages.
lydia smith
Yeah, it's fancy.
tim pool
Very clean.
seamus coughlin
Good for you.
tim pool
Phuket Freddy says, Seamus, Day of the Dead falls on All Saints Day in the Catholic calendar, so it's a way to remember family as well.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, no, absolutely.
So All Saints Day is a day when we remember and pray for the dead and celebrate the saints.
And yeah, I believe Day of the Dead also falls on that date, November 1st.
tim pool
Oh, very interesting.
lydia smith
All Hallows' Eve is Halloween.
seamus coughlin
All Hallows' Eve is Halloween, yes.
libby emmons
I had somebody trying to tell me on Twitter that Halloween had nothing to do with Christianity or religion.
seamus coughlin
That is absurd.
libby emmons
And I was like, yep, it's the eve before a holy day of obligation.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, exactly.
libby emmons
That's kind of the point.
seamus coughlin
Now, obviously, like, not all the customs of Halloween or Day of the Dead, for that matter, are necessarily Christian, or even something that Christians should partake in, frankly, but in its origins, yeah, it's Christian.
tim pool
All right, here's a good one.
Jay Liebgott says, the crazy thing about the Kentucky lap dance story is that it was in Hazard County.
I can't see Bo and Luke, uh, Duke, doing this.
Daisy, maybe.
lydia smith
Goodness gracious.
tim pool
Times, they are a-changin'.
Yeah.
Alright, let's see.
Jeffrey Grajic says, I get a kick out of hearing, here was this drink called Tang and didn't astronauts drink that?
I guess.
seamus coughlin
Also, by the way, I saw a tweet that said, and this makes so much more sense, it was orangutans in the Tang that were chilling out.
lydia smith
That does make more sense.
That checks out about that.
seamus coughlin
Now I get it.
Maybe I was looking for chimpanzees in there as a kid.
I should have been looking for orangutans.
Might have seen something.
lydia smith
That was your problem.
libby emmons
That was the issue.
tim pool
Matthew Drake said Alec Baldwin crossed state lines and shot a woman.
lydia smith
Oh, technically correct.
tim pool
Yeah, you know, you can use framing to like, really mess with people's minds on stories.
So Alec Baldwin traveled really, really far out of state crossing state lines, specifically for the purpose to go where this woman was working, and then point a gun at her and pull the trigger.
And now she's dead.
lydia smith
All technically correct.
tim pool
Literally correct.
The only thing is they don't tell you.
It's like he was on a movie and you know.
That's how the media works.
seamus coughlin
It's the information they withhold more so than the information they give you.
libby emmons
It's just so absurd to not check your props.
Like that's what I find so stupid.
tim pool
Think about how they framed it at first.
A prop gun misfired.
libby emmons
But it wasn't a prop gun and it didn't misfire.
tim pool
Right.
libby emmons
It was a real gun that was being used as a prop that was intentionally fired.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, that's crazy.
libby emmons
That's really the only way to fire them.
You have to pull the actual trigger.
tim pool
Not a prop.
All right, Dragon Lady says, Amen.
I was one of those kids.
seamus coughlin
So offensive, right?
Because Hispanics, especially Mexicans, are very often Catholic.
Not all the time.
unidentified
Highly Catholic.
seamus coughlin
But to co-opt their culture, which is generally Catholic, to promote sexual lifestyle choices that we believe are immoral is extremely insulting.
libby emmons
Death style.
Death style choices.
tim pool
She goes on to say, Latinos wake up because we are being colonized again.
seamus coughlin
I just got that.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Lawyer Lar Lar says first thing my parents taught me when I was old enough to be home alone Don't open the door for anyone.
unidentified
That's right.
Yeah, especially witches unless it's a witch unless it's a witch.
tim pool
She's getting in anyway She'll teleport in I guess JR says Tim t-bones are hard to cook because they're actually like three separate steaks.
Well, we're gonna slow cook them for like 12 hours So it just turns to mush great Brisket is the best period that's it You like brisket the best, huh?
seamus coughlin
It's the best.
tim pool
Good brisket.
seamus coughlin
All brisket's him, they call him.
tim pool
Just falls apart.
lydia smith
True, yeah, true.
tim pool
I don't know, I gotta be honest.
A tenderloin, man.
Wow, filet mignon.
Crazy.
seamus coughlin
It is delicious.
tim pool
So insanely good.
Harder and harder to come by.
I went to this one farm and the lady told me that someone showed up and bought all- Let me tout my fancy meat that I have.
lydia smith
That's right!
seamus coughlin
She was like, oh, I have the fanciest meats!
lydia smith
Where's my fancy meat?
seamus coughlin
None of you may partake!
tim pool
It's like $15 for a steak.
That's kind of a lot, but it's like- That's kind of a lot!
Yeah, but you know how much a porterhouse costs?
It's just it's a little bit bigger.
libby emmons
I mostly just buy vegetables and pasta.
tim pool
When you go to a farm to buy meat and you're getting fresh farm meat, everything is between 15-20 bucks and the tenderloins are 15 bucks.
libby emmons
I used to live near a place that slaughtered chickens on the Lower East Side, and after living near that place for just a brief period of time, I didn't want to eat chicken really ever, ever again.
I would never have gone there to buy some fresh chicken.
seamus coughlin
Their screaming would annoy me and I'd hate them even more.
I'm just kidding, I'm just kidding.
I'm kidding!
libby emmons
And the smell, the smell was ghastly.
tim pool
I briefly lived across the street from a chicken slaughtery and at like 2 in the morning you'd hear like... That's horrible.
seamus coughlin
I mean the noise you made was funny but it's horrible for action.
To just hear the mass slaughter of any animal is not a comfortable experience.
libby emmons
Would you eat lab-grown organic meat product?
tim pool
Yeah.
libby emmons
That didn't come from animals, it was just like...
tim pool
Yeah, yeah.
We bought this fungus ice cream.
They make lactose.
They genetically modify the mushroom so that it grows lactose, I guess, and they take it out and they make a non-animal dairy with it.
I had a little bit because I'm trying to avoid all the sugary garbage.
But I have no problem eating that stuff.
I would just choose not to if I had the choice.
libby emmons
If you had the choice, you wouldn't do it.
tim pool
Yeah, so my choice is I have chickens.
We have 15 chickens now.
It's the craziest thing, right?
Check this out.
If you get a chicken and you get a rooster and you just put them outside, you don't gotta do it.
libby emmons
You end up with more chickens.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, that's true.
The other day I saw Tim and he had one of the chickens and he was just like beating it mercilessly and then like it finally died.
And I was like, now we can eat it.
And Tim's like, eat it.
We just dropped it there.
tim pool
What's wrong with you?
No, we actually have a very serious Chicken City problem right now.
So Dorothy, who was a rehome and she's the oldest, she's being seriously abused by Roberto.
lydia smith
Oh no!
seamus coughlin
Like, oh yeah, dude, chickens are not nice.
Dude, roosters are not nice animals.
tim pool
Well, so she runs from him now, panicked, frantic, and then he chases her and then jumps on her and doesn't, he just jumps on her and then stands there.
And so we're like, okay, we need to get this new thing set up.
We're separating them all so that she'll have time to be by herself and heal, and then he'll have to find other preferences, I guess.
seamus coughlin
He's going to move on to the next victim.
I mean, the recidivism is very high for those kinds of roosters.
libby emmons
I want to do an animation.
Our Canadian editor at Postmillennial is Roberto Wakerol Cruz, and I want to do an animation of him with a Chicken body doing this with Dorothy.
tim pool
Here's the thing though.
So we have Judy Garland's face on the chicken.
There's two batches of babies.
There's three babies.
It's Margaret's two daughters and then Roberto's son.
And then we have five babies that are Black Stars.
Those are Vanessa and Dorothy's kids.
They're a special sex link from Rhode Island Red and Bard Plymouth Rock.
And they all do their separate thing.
And so one day, Roberto Jr., his son, was grabbing the neck of one of Margaret's daughters really hard, and he ran in and split him up.
And I was like, he's being a good dad, right?
And I'm actually impressed.
I go out there, and I was worried that the rooster would kill the other boys and everything.
He actually keeps them safe.
Yeah, but I was told that they don't care for their kids and they were incubated babies, so he really doesn't care for them.
He just views them as other chickens, but he's actually doing a good job for everybody.
Now, the little boys are still babies, so they're not yet sexually mature, so we don't have to worry about any fighting or anything like that, but we're gonna separate them.
libby emmons
That probably makes sense.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, I've thought about getting chickens.
My landlord doesn't allow pets, but I think livestock is different, you know?
Maybe if I got some of those in my apartment.
tim pool
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
unidentified
Roosters.
tim pool
Just get a bunch of roosters.
libby emmons
Inside your apartment.
tim pool
You know what I was thinking?
I was thinking of just buying like 50 roosters and just unleashing them in a city and just letting them... Oh my gosh!
unidentified
What the heck?
lydia smith
Let's not do that!
tim pool
Just open the back of a truck at 4am.
seamus coughlin
Will it happen?
No, we should try that and just like see if it becomes a news story.
Just don't tell anyone, just let it happen and see.
People are like, there's chickens running around our neighborhood.
And how big of a story it becomes.
tim pool
Not chickens, roosters, because they'll be screaming.
They'll be fighting each other and running away.
seamus coughlin
Oh my gosh, we should just introduce chickens and roosters as an invasive species in some large city.
Teach those city slickers about farming.
tim pool
There's no natural predators in cities for chickens.
libby emmons
Who's gonna go after them?
There's possums.
lydia smith
Raccoons.
tim pool
Nope, can't get them.
Chickens too big.
libby emmons
Chickens?
Possums can't get chickens?
tim pool
I'm pretty sure chickens and roosters are too big for possums.
libby emmons
Possums are like just giant rats.
tim pool
Coyotes, foxes, raccoons.
So raccoons maybe if they get into the city.
But, you know, I think if you just unleashed a horde of chickens into, like, Central Park, you'd have chickens everywhere.
libby emmons
You would have chickens everywhere.
It's interesting, in Brooklyn... Central Park!
seamus coughlin
Let's do it, dude!
libby emmons
I think you should do this.
I won't tell anybody.
seamus coughlin
Dude, if this happens, that that's gonna happen, right?
And someone's actually gonna release chickens.
And then the media's gonna go, chicken insurrection, promoted by Tim Pool.
tim pool
People are saying cats, that is not true.
lydia smith
Not for chickens, no.
seamus coughlin
What about cats?
tim pool
Cats?
Cannot.
We'll get messed up by a chicken.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, dude.
tim pool
Dude, you need to understand, chickens are armored.
Those feathers?
Yeah, it's like armored.
And then they have claws.
libby emmons
Well, they're basically like dinosaurs.
lydia smith
Yeah.
unidentified
And so cats are tough, but they're soft.
seamus coughlin
They're very soft.
libby emmons
Do you want to know how we ended up with a bunch of possums in Brooklyn?
They released a bunch of possums in Brooklyn to try and control the rat population.
tim pool
No way.
When was it?
libby emmons
It was a while ago, but now we have rats and possums.
lydia smith
Amazing.
libby emmons
And squirrels.
And they're all super nasty.
tim pool
Well, we have we've got stink bugs everywhere and they're an invasive species
And so one thing people were saying is that the reason they're spreading is because in China where they're from
There's wasps that kill and eat them simple. We just need to bring the wasps over. Yeah, I do that brilliant. Let's
libby emmons
do that Spectacular plans.
Yo, have you seen that weird... Why didn't we all think of that and do it already?
tim pool
Have you seen that weird spotted bug that's invasive?
libby emmons
Those lightning-y things.
seamus coughlin
That kill the trees?
tim pool
Yeah.
unidentified
Yeah.
seamus coughlin
And the cops, they're horrible.
tim pool
I went to, we were in Harrisburg, PA, and we went to a restaurant and there was like a thousand, just like clustered all over this building.
And I was like, I'm pretty sure you got to call the cops or something.
Like, you're like obligated and they called or something like that.
But I was just like, dude, and they're flying everywhere.
libby emmons
Really disgusting. Yeah. Yeah.
seamus coughlin
Nasty little things.
tim pool
Yeah. Nasty!
Why haven't you guys smashed that like button for Shades?
seamus coughlin
Yeah, guys, hold on. Why haven't you smashed the like button for this episode of TimCats?
That's ridiculous.
lydia smith
That's right.
seamus coughlin
How many likes are we at, Lids?
lydia smith
Grow, we're at 8,332.
seamus coughlin
Oh, no, that's enough, actually.
tim pool
That's enough? Oh, okay.
seamus coughlin
No, let's get us to 15,000.
15,000!
It's ambitious, but we're going for it tonight.
lydia smith
Let's do it.
tim pool
Jake Berg says Tim Pool is a CIA plant and these videos aren't even live.
I can prove it's live right now.
seamus coughlin
How do you read that super chat?
Well, you just proved it by reading a super chat.
He knows.
tim pool
I'm gonna prove it right now by writing the time and date.
lydia smith
My fancy pen.
There you go.
unidentified
Very cool.
lydia smith
It's like 1862, isn't it?
I'm concerned.
seamus coughlin
But Tim, you knew when the podcast was gonna start airing, so you knew that at a certain- Here's proof!
tim pool
This is live, right now.
See?
lydia smith
Can you read that?
8, 17 p.m.
10, 26, 21.
Oh, that's right.
seamus coughlin
That's right.
libby emmons
I wouldn't have driven straight into the sun all afternoon either for something that wasn't even live, y'all.
unidentified
I know.
lydia smith
What were you thinking, Libby?
libby emmons
I don't know.
tim pool
So now, here's what I'm really excited for.
I'm actually just fake.
That super chat came in a few minutes ago at 9.59 p.m.
But now, people are going to be like, whoa, Tim held up the wrong time and date.
Like, I bet the shows aren't even actually live, even though the news is from today.
seamus coughlin
No, it would be such a bad idea to record this early.
We should do an episode... Why did you write 8-17?
tim pool
It's funny.
seamus coughlin
It's funny.
It's a good bit.
tim pool
It's a perfect number, yeah.
unidentified
8-17.
8-17.
lydia smith
Yesterday.
seamus coughlin
We should do one episode.
libby emmons
I just noticed that.
seamus coughlin
We should actually record an episode ahead of time.
Just one day when we want to hang out later in the day or something.
And then the whole time we'll just be like trying to talk about the day's events we know nothing about.
Did you hear about that thing today?
tim pool
That one thing?
Joe Biden!
unidentified
Joe!
tim pool
Can you believe what he said?
seamus coughlin
Oh, that thing!
libby emmons
Don't you like that Simpsons episode when they replace all of the radio talk show hosts with a computer, and the computer is just like, those clowns in Congress, and Homer's like, oh, that's true.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, perfect.
tim pool
Well, we didn't quite hit Seamus' goal of 15,000 likes.
seamus coughlin
That's pretty messed up, so that means no aftershow, sorry.
tim pool
No, that means we're kicking Seamus out.
libby emmons
People don't realize, you know, Seamus, you gotta... I was gonna have a scotch in the aftershow, so let's def do the aftershow.
tim pool
No, it's fine, we'll do that, but Seamus, you're out.
