Speaker Time Text
tim pool
Thank you.
And one of the organized, one of the leaders of this local BLM group has actually been charged with violent crimes themselves.
So just, I mean, just outright, this is crazy to hear.
The Democrats put in place policies in Chicago and New York and in LA that result in crime.
They support riots.
They supported Black Lives Matter rioters.
Then once all this chaos and insanity happens, the federal government comes out, the Democrats, and they say, we're going to give federal COVID relief funds, your tax dollars, by the way.
And then they shuffle it right back into BLM groups.
But it's not just this story.
There's a huge scandal ongoing where apparently BLM, we don't even know where their fundraising is going, no one knows who's in charge, their address is apparently not even real, and it's gotten so bad that even blue states are threatening the BLM organization over their lack of financial transparency, and BLM has now shut down fundraising outright.
So we gotta get into all that stuff, plus we got more developments in the, I gotta admit, rather tired ongoing Spotify Joe Rogan controversy, but the White House has chimed in, Jon Stewart has chimed in, and I kid you not, the President of Brazil is chiming in.
If you were going to tell me that Joe Rogan's show would end up being involved in an international incident, I'd be like, I don't know about all that, but here we go.
We're getting to that point.
I wouldn't be surprised if, like, Vladimir Putin comes out and he's like, I like Joe Rogan.
And then Joe Biden is like, we cannot have this kind of support for misinformation.
And that starts the whole Ukraine-Russia war or whatever.
But we'll get into all that stuff.
We got Joe Biden coming out once again lying, saying you can't buy cannons.
He was like, the Second Amendment doesn't allow you, when they wrote it, you couldn't buy cannons.
Yo, you can literally buy a cannon right now.
We pulled up the website.
We don't want anyone to buy cannons, obviously, but it's not hard to find.
seamus coughlin
It's your right.
James Madison literally wrote a letter to a private ship owner telling him he could own cannons.
tim pool
Was that Tucker Carlson?
seamus coughlin
James Madison, Joe Biden wants to think you shouldn't have a candidate.
You should, actually.
tim pool
We're going to talk about all this, and I have to say first and outright, we were going to have Dan Crenshaw tonight, but he has to be in Congress for a vote.
And so, you know, with respect, I'm glad he's there and doing his job, because a lot of people in Congress don't.
Unfortunately, it just means he couldn't be here.
Luke came down because he wanted to make sure he was a part of that show, but we have Luke here instead, so you can all be happy, grateful that Dan couldn't make it, because you get Luke now.
luke rudkowski
First of all, Tim, we need to buy that cannon immediately.
Second of all, honk honk, mother truckers!
Welcome back, beautiful and amazing human beings!
Freedom is winning!
The official narrative along with CNN is crumbling, and we have the unveiling of some of the biggest lies in our society.
It's an amazing time to be alive, and thank you so much for having me back.
I was looking forward to a spirited conversation with Mr. Crenshaw.
Sadly, that doesn't happen.
We have Seamus, though.
tim pool
I know, man.
I was bummed, too.
luke rudkowski
Yeah, but yeah.
Anyway, if you want to support me, you can on The Best Political Shirts.com and you could get spirited t-shirts like the one that I have right now that say The Real Island Boys, which you could exclusively get on TheBestPoliticalShirts.com.
And I'm also going to be doing a meetup in Florida, in Fort Lauderdale.
If you want to be a part of that, sign up on my email list on wearechange.org.
seamus coughlin
Spirited is a word for it.
tim pool
Make fun of his glasses.
seamus coughlin
No, you know what, actually, I think the glasses are the one thing about him that make him seem smart.
So I won't knock him for that.
It's great to have Luke here.
No, I actually am happy to do a show with him, believe it or not, despite the fact that he's constantly insulting me in chat just for keeping his seat warm.
lydia smith
It's true.
seamus coughlin
My name is Seamus Coghlan.
I am a cartoonist.
Did I interrupt you?
Did I interrupt him once?
luke rudkowski
I'm just clearing my voice here.
I'm sorry.
seamus coughlin
I gotta clear my voice.
It'd be a shame if that went out, huh?
So I have a political cartoon channel called Freedom Tunes.
We just released a cartoon about Justin Trudeau and the Truckers.
If you guys want to check that out, it seems to be very popular right now.
The fans are enjoying it.
You will too, and man, there's a whole lot I want to get into tonight with the stories you brought up.
I'm excited.
tim pool
We got so much, man.
There's a lot.
Superbowl masks.
Scientists say you gotta put pantyhose over your face.
unidentified
Yes!
seamus coughlin
It's messed up.
Hopefully Luke lets me get a word in.
Edgewise over here.
Never.
I've got a lot of thoughts on all this.
ian crossland
Oh, hi, Ian Crosland over here.
What's up, everybody?
IanCrosland.net.
Also, I'm very happy to be here.
Luke, great to see you.
My man!
And maybe we could toss it over to our fifth guest.
luke rudkowski
Oh, yeah.
lydia smith
What's the fifth guest?
ian crossland
Yeah, we brought... It's our fifth guest.
luke rudkowski
Or Fauci.
Or somebody... I redecorated just a little bit.
Somebody did.
tim pool
Luke brought a guest of like... Luke insisted.
This is the best part.
Listen, Luke insisted we get a bunch of Florida oranges, but the funniest thing is the big box in the middle is mango.
luke rudkowski
That's partly Linda's fault here, but as a Florida man and a Polish Florida man, we are very gracious.
We brought a lot of oranges for everyone to consume here straight from Florida.
lydia smith
Yeah, of course.
seamus coughlin
It's weird how everything's about ethnicity with you.
I don't know.
unidentified
Anyway, I'm also here.
lydia smith
Yeah, I am pushing buttons in the corner.
I did buy the mango drinks.
They're delicious.
The box was orange.
I don't care that they're not actually oranges.
They also have caffeine in them and I'm not sorry.
Sorry.

Man, and I just want to say, I've seen all these videos that have been ongoing from the Great Honkening protest, seeing these truckers out there.
Just want to make sure you guys realize that the people out here who are in these trucks, when they're not near their homes, they've traveled very far, they need food, they need help, they gotta find a bathroom.
I'm not going to presume to speak for them as to what they do need, but I certainly think it's reasonable to say they're going to need your local support, especially when the city's threatening to bring in police.
They want to bring in military.
So, you know, shout out to all those people that are standing up for freedom.
But let's get into that first big story we got from TimCast.com.
Illinois governor gave $300,000 of federal relief funding to Black Lives Matter.
This is $300,000 in federal COVID-19 relief funds went to the Lake County chapter of BLM.
I could not... When I saw this, you know what I wanted to do?
I went on Twitter, and I was like, what do I tweet?
And I was like, ooh, I know.
I'll tweet, are you paying attention?
Wait a minute.
No, I can't tweet that.
Not only does Jack Posobiec tweet that for everything, I'm like, I think you just, we're paying attention now, especially if you're following me on Twitter.
So I just said, I'm not even gonna ask.
I know you're paying attention.
It's this bad.
Let me pull up their official documentation.
This is COVID-19 relief funds.
Check it out.
Your business was shut down.
You're in massive debt.
You're getting evicted from your house.
Your business was burned down in a riot.
So money was taken from your tax dollars, or printed and borrowed, and the Democratic administration from the federal government gives it to the states, and then Illinois says, we're gonna give it right back to BLM.
Here it is, right here, look at this.
Under the guise.
Of criminal justice and crime intervention, Black Lives Matter got $300,000.
When we talk about January 6th, when we talk about the federal government going after only one political faction, letting the rioters do whatever they want, barely prosecuting anybody, going after a bunch of Maga Mimas who were let in the Capitol, and then you can see they're directly funding them.
You know what?
Maybe the reason they're not going to charge any of these rioters with terrorism, because then they'd all basically be committing some kind of sedition and insurrection, and then they would be ineligible.
So when they sued Madison Cawthorne saying he couldn't run for re-election, I tweeted out, Kamala Harris is ineligible to run for public office because she engaged in insurrection against these United States by providing material support to those engaged in insurrection and terror against this country.
seamus coughlin
Amen.
So BLM is kind of the perfect scam here because there are absolutely no results needed.
What are the strings attached to when you give them money?
What are they going to say?
It's part of what's brilliant about this kind of political activism, generally speaking.
The worse the problem gets, the more they can claim that they're needed.
And the more they can claim that you have to give them money or else you don't care about the problem.
On top of that, when it comes to JB, I'm not sure if y'all are familiar with him or if the audience knows much about him, but being from the state of Illinois originally, I can give you a few facts on him that will leave you unsurprised with the fact that he would mismanage federal funds in this way.
Firstly, he is every single thing that the left claims to hate, and he's all of them at the same time.
It's almost amazing.
He is a billionaire, trust fund baby, venture capitalist.
And in the state of Illinois, he raised the collective tax burden by 5.25 billion.
tim pool
No way!
seamus coughlin
billion dollars still couldn't balance the budget. He tried to raise it eight billion
but wasn't able to. But he himself does everything he can to avoid taxes. He had a second house
which was a mansion and he had every single toilet removed from it so it would be considered
uninhabitable when the tax assessor came and he wouldn't have to pay. Yes. And so he wouldn't
have to pay as much in taxes. He's an absolute swamp creature.
tim pool
So we could take the toilets out of here and just put like we could dig a hole in the backyard
and I don't got to pay taxes?
seamus coughlin
Yes, well, you have to pay some taxes, but it's assessed as being at a lower value if it's uninhabited or uninhabitable.
tim pool
Wow, that's amazing.
seamus coughlin
Very slimy.
luke rudkowski
Well, if there's anything that the government's really good at, it's wasting your money and scamming people, and this is a perfect example of this.
Where did that money go to?
An organization that can't even account for $60 million, as of course there's ongoing investigations into BLM right now.
I mean, what did you expect?
I mean, there's so many different consequences here.
There's so many different ramifications here.
There's so many different ways we could even talk about this specific story.
But this is how the government chooses to take your money that you gave them?
tim pool
They create the problem.
luke rudkowski
Exactly.
tim pool
Then they take your money to fix the problem and give it back to the people creating the problem, or partly.
luke rudkowski
And then make more problems.
tim pool
Right, right, right.
So the president of the Lake County BLM chapter Clyde McLemore was arrested in Kenosha in 2021 and charged with felony battery of a police officer.
So look, You got somebody who is actually arrested for a violent crime, being given money under the guise of preventing violent crimes in Chicago.
Now, innocent until proven guilty, of course, always.
And with a lot of the stuff going on these past few years, I'm not necessarily gonna sit here and just blindly trust cops or anything like that.
But yo.
BLM.
This is not the first scandal, it'll certainly not be the last scandal.
I think what people need to understand, I don't know how else to say it, there is a powerful element of the government that hates you, that is actively funding people who have destroyed lives and are destroying your businesses and your homes, and we are watching them do it with your own dollars.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, exactly.
luke rudkowski
They funded an organization that called for the disbanding of the family unit.
They funded an organization that literally has Marxist talking points that wants to, of course, spread, divide, and conquer techniques that have been effectively deployed in the United States and have worsened race relations here in this country.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, well, it's funny because I was going to ask the question, could you imagine any right-wing organizations receiving this kind of money from the federal government, like the Patriot Prayer Group?
But then I realized they're pretty much entirely employed by the federal government, aren't they?
tim pool
Patriot Prayer?
seamus coughlin
Patriot Prayer Group?
I'm sorry, what's the organization?
tim pool
Oath Keepers.
seamus coughlin
Oath Keepers, I'm sorry.
tim pool
Yeah, I don't know what's going on with Patriot Prayer Guys, but Oath Keepers, apparently.
Yeah, man.
We were talking about this the other day with Julie Kelly.
Where you have all of a sudden these people, everyone's asking like, why aren't they being charged in the January 6th, you know, riot?
And then all of a sudden they get charged, because they were gonna be called as witnesses, and now they can plead the fifth.
Yo, dude.
seamus coughlin
Very sketchy.
tim pool
I just... I gotta be honest though, I don't wanna be Debbie Downer, I don't wanna be Negative Nancy, right?
For some reason we have these alliterative words for being, you know, depressive.
But, uh...
I really do think that we're seeing these stories.
It's exposing what's going on.
And it used to be that this stuff happened and we didn't even know it was happening around us.
So what you got to watch out for is, you know, because I felt I fall victim to this sometimes as well.
You read all of this really bad stuff and you're like, man, things must be really bad.
And then I stop and I'm like, actually, we wouldn't even know this was happening 10 years ago.
seamus coughlin
Exactly.
tim pool
So it's actually, you know, it's bad.
It happened.
But we've got investigative reporters exposing all of this stuff.
That's pretty good.
luke rudkowski
Yeah, there's a theory out there.
People are asking themselves, is the world becoming a worse place, or are we just finding out exactly how the world really works?
And I think we're finding out exactly how the world really works, and there's consequences for negative actions.
For every action, there's an equal reaction.
That's Newton's third law.
And even just, you know, yesterday we had the Indiana ... Attorney General come out and say that BLM is a scam and he ... said that the House of Cards is starting to fall as of course ... there's major questions about the 60 million dollars that ... were given to them by major institutions by very powerful ... players and now even governments not just ... multinational corporations pushing an agenda not just ... Blackrock in the ESG social credit score but but there's so ... much influence here when it comes to pushing this narrative ...
And the unraveling of it, it's going to have equal consequences in my opinion.
tim pool
There's something interesting to be said about individuals choosing to donate, but the government funding.
I have to wonder if, you know, I'm willing to bet Illinois is not the only state that did this.
luke rudkowski
Absolutely not.
tim pool
I'd love to know to the extent to which you've got these smaller groups.
Just think about this.
We had riots all over the country.
It was not centrally organized.
Not necessarily.
It may be through perhaps the Democratic Party and like groups like Act Blue that were bailing out a lot of these people.
But the funding that went to these smaller groups in all these different places, where did they get that money from?
If Illinois was giving it to a local chapter, is the government funding them in other areas?
I'd have to assume yes.
luke rudkowski
And most importantly, what did they do with that money is the bigger question asked here.
And it could be reasonable to ponder that maybe they don't want to release the records of the $60 million because now the California and the Washington Attorney General are demanding the financial disclosures of where their money came from.
You could argue that maybe there's even more governments that were involved here with the funding of BLM that they don't want publicly released and that's why the data hasn't been out there.
tim pool
Do you remember that there was that guy in California who had his own group called Black Lives Matter and he raised like 300 grand on his own and then they went after him and they destroyed his life?
He owned it before they did, and they went after him.
seamus coughlin
So this was an actual activist, this wasn't some guy trying to... I repeat myself, right?
But was this actually someone who believed in the cause trying to raise money, or was he using their name?
tim pool
So when BLM first started, there was no centralized organization or anything.
So he was like, okay, I'll make a non-profit, we'll call it this.
And he said his goal was to bring the community and the police together.
So that we can end, you know, this clash and this conflict.
unidentified
Right.
tim pool
That flies in the face of what they're actually trying to do.
They're trying to abolish the police.
So they accused him of being a charlatan, a fraud.
His fundraising was all suspended.
They went after his finances.
And he was legitimate.
He was like, as far as I know, he was totally legitimate.
seamus coughlin
Well, that's the thing, they always go, say, Black Lives Matter, as if that's all they actually want, but they know if you say BLM, what you're actually saying is, I support this organization, and the reason we know this is because this guy was literally saying, in the most direct way possible, Black Lives Matter, and they said, nope, can't do that.
tim pool
It's time we recognize this idea of the working class, and the elites, and these other classes, based on a hundred years ago, these writings of, you know, hundred-year-old dudes, is wrong, or at least needs to be updated.
Because how do you explain these urban, unemployed leftists who are not working class, but they claim to be, and they hold these insane ideologies, and they support these insane cultural ideologies?
They're not—the truckers are the working class.
These people aren't, you know, I refer to them somewhat as the intelligentsia because they're college educated, but they're not the intelligentsia.
They're not smart people.
seamus coughlin
No, they're not.
tim pool
They're not writing books and they're not writing poems and they're not saying, I challenge you.
They're just walking around going like, tell me whatever to do, Walmart.
They're like the corporate, the corporate, the corporate NPC class.
luke rudkowski
They're repeating statements instead of creating art, instead of creating entertainment, instead of actually building stuff.
They're literally just saying, just tell me what to say and I'll say it.
Tell me what I need to do to go along and get this perfect governmental, environmental, social credit score that's going to, of course, profit my business at the end.
It's not a stretch to imagine that more governments supported BLM financially because they supported them in many different ways.
Whether it's George Soros appointing a whole bunch of ... Attorney General's that implemented a lot of their ... policies whether it's government officials bailing ... them out whether it's government officials literally ... supporting them giving them permits to March whether it's ... Dr. Fauci and Bill de Blasio excusing their mass marches ... and mobilization saying that they're good for the general public.
Rather than of course attack anyone who is going against ... protest against the state that was bad and that was ... causing sickness and covid to spread again there was so much ... hypocrisy the state of this movement and brought it to a ... very significant place in our culture that has had horrible ... effects on everyone.
tim pool
Well, let's pull up the bigger story in this whole thing.
Shout out to Andrew Kerr of the Washington Examiner investigating this.
Black Lives Matter has shut down fundraising days after liberal states threatened legal action.
We don't know who's in charge.
We don't know where the money is.
Apparently they went to the address that BLM files and there's nothing there.
And the people there are like, I have no idea what you're talking about.
There's no BLM here.
Yo, it's almost like BLM is a shadow organization that never really existed.
ian crossland
So what is it?
Is it a charity?
BLM?
seamus coughlin
Well, it's like, wait, so the people who are encouraging American citizens to burn down their communities are sketchy?
Is this crazy?
ian crossland
No.
Yes, yes.
So they started a charity, Black Lives Matter.
I imagine it's a 501c3.
I'm trying to figure it out.
I think it says it is.
And then what happened?
All these chapters started spawning called Black Lives Matter.
tim pool
There's local chapters because anybody can make a local whatever they want.
ian crossland
And they're not charities?
tim pool
Yeah, they probably are.
ian crossland
So they might be charities too?
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
But it's the Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation.
That's like the official organization.
Yo, you've got California saying, like, where's the money?
And they went, uh... Indiana says it's a scam.
The Indiana AG was like, it's indicative of what scams do.
ian crossland
It's racist.
tim pool
And it's a house of cards.
ian crossland
There's the Black Lives Matter Foundation, which is not the Black Lives Matter movement.
It's also a foundation, a 501c3, December 19th was formed, and it's been taking donations.
There's advisory from BuzzFeed, NBC is like, Watch out for the Black Lives Matter Foundation because it's not affiliated with the movement.
So there you're starting to see like money grab, fraudulent scams pop up, at least in this instance.
tim pool
Yeah, so this is it right here.
I pulled it up.
The Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation.
Former Executive Director was Patrice Cullors.
Everybody knows her because she's that lady who bought all those houses, right?
ian crossland
Yeah, three, I think three or four houses.
tim pool
I think she had five.
unidentified
Oh, wow.
tim pool
Yeah, she had five and they were up there, huh?
And it's a 501c3 and currently it has non-profit compliance issues.
Wow, man.
luke rudkowski
Yeah, well, they're not disclosing the finances.
They're not disclosing the numbers.
They're supposed to have public records of what is happening with that money.
They're preventing people from see it and and and and when ... journalists are asking about this the people who were ... initially asked about this or not trying to conceal their ... information or hide who they are to not even be held ... accountable for this as the California Department of ... Justice is literally threatening these leaders ... saying that they could be held personally liable if they ... don't disclose the financial records.
tim pool
Let me just read this.
Let me just read this for you guys.
All right, you guys ready for this one?
Let me build a little bit of suspense.
From influencewatch.org, purchase of former Communist Party of Canada headquarters.
In July 2021, the non-profit M4BJ purchased a 10,000 square foot mansion in downtown Toronto.
seamus coughlin
Did they take the toilets out?
tim pool
Formerly served as the headquarters of the Communist Party of Canada, according to the Washington Examiner, the bulk of the 8.1 million, With purchase price came via a restricted capital grant provided by the BLM Global Network Foundation
Where'd your money go?
They took over the Communist Party headquarters in Toronto.
seamus coughlin
Well, this is what I find so hilarious.
Tim, earlier you were talking about the intelligentsia.
And it is true, according to Pew Research, that people who have higher education or have been through higher education are more likely to support BLM.
But one thing I find very interesting about that is if this is a movement which is more likely to be supported by really intelligent people, how did none of them figure out that it was such a scam?
It's very funny because in this country, probably over the past 100, maybe 150 years, our notion of what education is supposed to be changed.
So, in the past it was something that was set aside for a very small minority of people who could handle things like learning Greek and Latin by the time they were 16 years old and who would be completely familiar with the entire Western lexicon and then would go on to higher learning.
No, I think it's great that we have widespread literacy and we've increased access to education.
But when it comes to higher education, we've just tried to funnel everyone through it, even though the entire model that was created initially was for the particularly and really highly intelligent.
And so what's happened is we've dumbed down higher education to the point where the people who go through it can't even spot that something like this is an unbelievably obvious It's not that they can't spot it.
luke rudkowski
It's that even just basic questioning of the institution and the organization labeled you a racist, labeled you as someone who was intolerant, labeled you as someone who was bigoted.
When you didn't support these Marxist ideas, you were, of course, attacked viciously by a lot of powerful organizations and institutions that were just blindly writing checks to these organizations.
So that had a huge social factor to it.
And I would even question the validity of that study myself, personally.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, so I think it's both.
I mean, you're absolutely right that they're not allowed to question it, but I think part of the reason they're not allowed to question it is because higher education no longer has the same message it used to, which is that we should be questioning things, we should be trying to discover new ideas, and this should be reserved for very intelligent people who are actually capable of wrestling with ideas and aren't just going to go along with the group.
tim pool
You guys, so that whole Whoopi Goldberg thing was started over the mouse book and Kill a Mockingbird getting removed from the curriculum.
The New York Post even claimed mouse was banned.
It's literally not true.
So I've got a couple points to make.
This is fun.
So I was on Facebook and this lefty guy I know he like posted, hey, look, they banned mouse and then link to a story.
And I responded with they didn't ban it.
They just took it off the curriculum.
And the response was, that means the school banned it.
And then I responded with, the Gulag Archipelago was also banned.
And they all went, whoa, really?
And I was like, that's right.
Because it's not in their curriculum.
That means it's banned, isn't it?
So I saw another post, right?
And it's this meme going around, many of you may have seen it, where it's a stack of books and all of these banned books.
And it's from like Occupy Democrats or something.
And it says, kids, listen.
If anyone tells you that you can't read a book, you need to find this book and read it and decide for yourself.
My response was, absolutely.
We should be sending kids the book Rigged by Molly Hemingway so they can learn about the election.
And if anyone tells them they shouldn't read it, that's proof they should.
lydia smith
Irreversible harm.
seamus coughlin
It's actually funny because I saw that post, I saw that meme, and one of the books in the meme was like the joy of sex.
That's like, yeah, before a certain age, you probably shouldn't be reading that.
tim pool
But they're not banned books.
seamus coughlin
No, I know.
tim pool
So they told me, you know, these books are banned.
And I was like, when I was a kid, a banned book meant if you brought it to school, they'd take it from you and call your parents.
They'd be like, this is inappropriate for kids.
You should not be showing this.
And usually it was like serious adult stuff.
That's a banned book.
When they're just like, we're not going to make it required reading, but we don't care if you have it.
It's in the library if you want to read it.
That's not banned.
seamus coughlin
No.
tim pool
But this is, how did we get into the book thing again?
seamus coughlin
We were just talking about higher education and how it's totally failed in this country.

The problem with that is that being intelligent and educated doesn't mean that you're moral.
And so a lot of really intelligent people do really immoral things, like the Nazi scientists, for instance, but maybe BLM as well, I don't know.
seamus coughlin
I agree completely, but I also think that's a product of the fact that in some ways we've reclassified what it means to be intelligent.
So historically, and I think if you look at like Aquinas or Aristotle, their definition of intelligence was that you were able to see the world for what it was and then act in accordance with it.
And now we've changed it to more or less refer to people who have something Approximating G, which is what we usually talk about when we're talking about IQ like their their ability to wrestle with abstractions And notice patterns their working memory that kind of thing and those are all really important and they're strongly correlated with with economic success but intelligence in the classical sense also does Include a person's ability to behave virtuously because virtue is just acting within reason rather than choosing
tim pool
I want to think of it like that bell curve meme of the really dumb person, the midwit, and then like the smart person.
And it's like, the really really dumb person understands, you know, many of them, not all of them, there's the Dunning-Kruger effect.
But they're like, you know, when you're smart, you can make things work and you can figure it out.
They're really, really smart people, understand this.
But the people in the middle are like, I went to school, therefore I'm smart.
Exactly.
The whole basis is, we're the better men because those truckers never graduated college.
seamus coughlin
Exactly.
tim pool
The non-college educated.
You know what's really funny?
When the left mocks the non-college educated working class people because they do dumb things, I'm like, the funny thing is, Those truckers, those tradesmen and women, the people working for the fire department, for the police department, for these other organizations, have experienced the real world to a substantially larger degree than college kids, and they make their decisions and actions based off real life.
And these college graduates have never actually experienced real life, and they live in a bubble where they think they're smarter than everybody, but could not make, they would never be able to figure out how to make a rudimentary machine.
They'd just be like, I don't know, the government should do it for us.
luke rudkowski
And Seamus, just really quick, the system, the education system rewards people who are indoctrinated successfully and are able just to regurgitate and repeat the talking points that are told to them, and this is why Walmart, Goldman Sachs, the CIA, all of them were singing the praises of BLM and their virtues and their Marxist ideas.
They were like, this is a great idea!
The CIA even went on a tirade promoting Black Panther as some kind of woke ideology, which is absolutely crazy and mind-boggling.
So these are regurgitators and repeaters, and I would even question that kind of mark of intelligence.
seamus coughlin
No, I would agree with you completely.
I mean, so the average college graduate has an IQ of about 114.
So that's, I mean, that's a bit above average, but that's by no means exceptional.
So to boast, I graduated college as if that's any kind of accomplishment anymore is absolutely ridiculous.
And to look down on your average working person, who's like likely just as smart as you and certainly has more knowledge of the world than you do is completely ridiculous.
luke rudkowski
I feel ashamed that I went to college.
I feel ashamed that I went into that.
seamus coughlin
Me too, but I went to our school.
luke rudkowski
And I wasted my time.
tim pool
Waste your time there, Seamus?
seamus coughlin
No, no, no, honestly, I'm very, I'm actually very, I was privileged to be able to go, and I'm very glad that I was able to go, but it's true, like, to brag about, to like, look down on people because you have a college degree and they don't is absurd, because basically anyone can get a college degree nowadays.
luke rudkowski
It's absurd, don't spell it.
seamus coughlin
It's absurd, you don't have to be.
luke rudkowski
I still can't write and spell, and I have a college diploma.
seamus coughlin
It's like, you don't have to be smart to graduate college.
unidentified
You don't.
ian crossland
No, you just gotta fill out the dotted line and hand in the paper 150 times.
luke rudkowski
And just repeat what the professor tells you to repeat.
tim pool
Here's what I just find.
I find it kind of sad because I really want to help people succeed.
Like, when people come to me and they ask me for real advice, I'll tell them, like, here's the best advice I can give you.
You know, there's a bunch of other people who know stuff I don't know.
I was on the phone earlier with another big, you know, independent media organization asking them for advice.
And I see these people on Twitter and they like to, you know, these people with almost no followers who just complain about the government all day and stuff.
And I'm like, I kind of got no problem complaining about the government, just complaining about the wrong thing.
But they make fun of people for not being college educated.
And they specifically come after me for not finishing high school.
And I'm just, I want to stop and ask them, like, what is the point of your life?
Like, what are your life goals?
Do you want to fit in?
Do you want to look around the room and say, I've accomplished something?
To you, is that having a degree?
Because to me, I don't care what you think.
I just care about doing cool stuff.
You know what I mean?
So as I'm growing up, I never saw the point of how a degree or diploma would do anything to help me achieve my goals and my dreams.
And these people who pursued that are now laden with student loan debt, they want the government to pay it off for them, and they're insulting me for running a successful business because I didn't finish high school.
It's completely backwards.
I think they genuinely do not understand what life is.
And so they just complain and they're scared and confused.
luke rudkowski
Well, there's a there's a way that the system coddles kind of comfort and and makes you adverse to any kind of You know things that you have to actually work for and whether it's just blinding yourself with pleasure or entertainment or video games The system right now is literally I believe priming you to live in a box to be a part of a VR metaverse technological world where you have all your pleasures just delivered right to you.
When it comes to actually sacrificing, when it comes to actual hard work, when it comes to actual pain, those are virtues that are not taught to individuals.
In our society, it's looked upon as something negative, but it's something that of course makes life as amazing and it's worth living for with those things in it.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, I would also say this.
When people sort of look down on you for your level of education, even though you have a very successful business, there's something ironic about that.
Because particularly with the purpose of modern education, it's more or less to get people credentialed so that you can predict their future success.
So to say like, well, you don't have the predictor of the success that you ended up having is a backwards way of looking at it.
tim pool
I think at this point, and I've talked a lot about it, higher education is basically just,
it's put people in this isolated space where they become indoctrinated,
not necessarily on purpose.
I know there's a lot of professors that do try to indoctrinate, obviously.
But when you take a bunch of people and put them in an environment
where they're not actually gonna learn anything meaningful for the most part, I mean, obviously,
they might learn about the great works and the great quotes, but I mean, can they fix a toilet?
Can they repair their car?
Can they balance a checkbook?
Did they learn finance?
A lot of people go to school for things that don't make sense.
No, yeah.
So what happens when you take all of these people, put them in this room,
they develop no meaningful skills, release them into the world,
they're confused why they don't fit into society, and they get angry about it.
They demand the government change everything for them, but if they did, the system would collapse because these are not the people propping the system up.
You wanna know who's propping the system up?
Very, very obviously, I know it's almost ad nauseum at this point, truckers, transferring the goods, carpenters, tradesmen, contractors, plumbers, electricians.
Like, I tell you, man, get any degree in the world you want.
You will need a plumber a hundred times more often than you will need someone with a degree from a liberal arts college.
unidentified
Postmodern literature or something like that.
tim pool
Yeah, like I read Marx and I read all of these great works about communism.
I'm like, can you fix my toilet or not, dude?
I don't know what you're talking about.
ian crossland
I'm wondering, I'm thinking about the difference between IQ and EQ, that's intelligence quotient and emotional quotient, and kind of how the idea of intellect is, you could probably divide it into both.
And I wonder if it's the struggle of the blue collar work That develops EQ.
It's the pain of, like, having to do something you don't necessarily want to do that you learn, like, how to deal with emotions.
tim pool
I gotta stop you right there.
No, no, I gotta stop you right there.
What do you mean you don't want to do?
What does that mean?
ian crossland
Like, it's stressful.
Jobs that are stressful.
tim pool
A job that is stressful is a job that you don't want to do, and that could be any job in the world.
ian crossland
Well, like, this job is not stressful to me.
I used to chop wood.
That was really hard on my body.
tim pool
And that's for you.
And there are a lot of people I know that are like, I could never sit in a seat and talk about this kind of stuff.
I'd be so embarrassed and insecure.
I'd rather just chop wood, man.
I know people who work HVAC who are like, I tried doing other stuff, but this really is where I just feel the most useful.
Like, when we have a contractor come in here and you get a guy who's just like a regular, you know, laborer, And he doesn't know anything about HDMI cords or 4K or whatever.
And then he's like, oh, you got a support problem in your wall.
I'm like, please help me because I have no idea how to fix that.
That's a person who's passionate about their job, who says, I can solve this problem for you.
They feel good about their job.
Anybody can feel good about their job.
The issue is we're taking these young people, we're putting them in colleges and telling them to be astronauts and rock stars.
Y'all should have watched Fight Club.
Because Tyler Durden told you right then, that's not what you're going to be.
Learn something meaningful.
Mike Rowe says it.
I want to push back a little bit.
He said don't follow your passions.
What did he say?
Follow your talents?
seamus coughlin
No, he said don't follow your passion.
Let your passion follow you, basically.
Take your passion with you to whatever job you find.
tim pool
Right, right, right, right.
I think we have too many people who want to be acknowledged, but they wanna be on TV, they wanna be influencers,
they want all the likes, but you could just be a really, really great electrician,
and then you go and work a job, and you're gonna have some family,
and they're gonna be like, you are a lifesaver.
We had no idea what the problem was, that the refrigerator went out, our food was spoiling.
He came in, snapped his fingers, and solved all of our problems, lifesaver.
luke rudkowski
Just really quick, don't watch Fight Club if you're in China,
because the government there just edited the ending of it.
That was awesome. But second of all, life has a lot of ups and downs, it's a crazy ride,
but they're trying to incentivize that.
It's only going to be up, but again, you can't have the up if you don't have the down.
But this is why the World Economic Forum.
A part of their 2030 pledge for not owning anything, not having any privacy, was also that you'll be happy.
This is what the system uses in order to incentivize everyone because they make you miserable on purpose.
They create the circumstances in your life where you are indebted, unhappy, unsatisfied, and a little worker bee slave for their establishment.
And then they're like, We'll give you all the happiness.
Just give us more of your liberty, more of your freedom, more of your responsibility.
You don't have to sacrifice and work hard.
Those are bad things.
And when you teach people not to sacrifice, not to work hard, you literally create little lemmings.
You create the perfect slaves that are going to be perfect for the establishment to have as their little peons to do whatever they wanted to do with, because then you get rid of personal responsibility and people's internal strength.
tim pool
But let's have an honest conversation about this, right?
When you have an ever-increasing quality of life, when people today live better than, you know, the richest people a hundred years ago, when your dental care is better than Rockefeller's, when your cancer treatment is better than Rockefeller's, and all the, you know, the oil barons and the rubber barons or whatever, At a certain point, that kind of increased quality of life, it can't sustain itself.
So what I think happens is you end up with these millennials who were told life will be better than it was, the life your parents led, your life will be better.
Now it's not as good, but it's all relative.
You know what I mean?
A hundred years ago, if you took a poor person and brought them into the average apartment with clean running water, hot water, air conditioning, and a refrigerator, they'd be like, Billionaire, like, wow!
Or a millionaire because of inflation.
It wasn't as high back then.
But they would think you were like a king.
It's like, no, no, no, this is just everybody gets it.
So what's happening with the global elites is they're trying to take all that away from you so they can trickle it back really slowly.
It's the idea that Harriet Tubman said.
Harriet Tubman said, I freed many slaves.
I would have freed many more if only they knew they were slaves.
They take away all of these luxuries from you.
Then, once you have nothing, they'll make you happy by giving you 0.1% back.
ian crossland
And it's worse than just taking away luxuries.
tim pool
It's what they're doing right now!
luke rudkowski
Well, this is why they talk about population control all the time.
Sorry, Ian, you have a point.
ian crossland
I think not only do they relieve you of your luxuries, but they'll induce suffering and then remove a little bit of suffering and call it happiness.
tim pool
But it's relative, so...
COVID happens.
They destroy everyone's business.
They make everybody uncomfortable and angry.
People start losing their minds.
Crime skyrockets.
Now they can go, whoa, save you.
And they slowly... Thanks, Starbucks.
They cause the problem, make you angry.
Once you get used to it, they reduce the problem they caused a little bit and you feel a little bit more relieved.
You see how that works?
ian crossland
Then they call that happiness.
tim pool
That's right.
ian crossland
A fleeting moment.
tim pool
And they say, you're happy now, right?
You're happy.
luke rudkowski
Well, this is why they've been trying to restrict people's ability to travel, to eat red meat, and to live a life of freedom and personal responsibility.
Because when you have that, they have less themselves.
And they're utter control freaks.
A lot of them are sociopaths.
They believe in this unrealistic idea of population control and population reduction for the betterment of the world, which is absolutely a ridiculous idea that has been debunked by many different scientists and different studies and different data sets already out there.
But they still keep pushing it as if it's the norm and now they're trying to push an agenda where we destroy the family unit because when we destroy the family unit there's going to be a lot less people out there which means a lot more resources for the billionaire class, a lot less for everyone else because they're not reproducing.
tim pool
I was kind of thinking that with the current economic trajectory we're on, for globally, with China set to take over, Maybe a lot of these elites have just said, you know, why resist it?
Who cares who's in charge as long as they protect themselves and their assets?
And so it kind of feels in many ways, this may be good for Americans in the long run, bad in a lot of ways, but good in a lot of ways that we get our freedoms, we restore, you know, balance in this country, but China does take over and then asserts, you know, serious authority over the rest of the planet.
I don't know.
of feel like it's possible that trajectory for China's rampant growth is inevitable.
And that's why it's like we're kind of just spinning our wheels here.
luke rudkowski
I see it differently.
I just really wanted to make this point because it just brought so many important aspects
that I really just want to talk about really quickly.
You know, there's a reason Henry Kissinger and David Rockefeller opened up China to the
There's a reason individuals like Bill Gates and other multinational billionaire corporate entities are the one advising China and propping up China to be as powerful and as prominent as they are right now.
And I think it's not what you said, Tim, that I see it differently.
I see it as the corporate elites trying to bring in the Chinese model into the rest of the world.
So we are under a social credit scar.
We are living like we are in China, with the government centralized and controlling every aspect of our existence.
I think that's the endgame.
I think that's where they're trying to go.
And I think COVID was an excuse for them to try to initiate a lot of their programs and initiatives in order to make that happen.
Sorry, go ahead, James.
seamus coughlin
You know, I also wouldn't assume that China is together enough to have any real long-term success.
Their economy is developing right now.
But first of all, they're going to hit a birth dearth.
They already have hit a birth dearth because they don't have enough women to... Incel apocalypse.
Yeah, they're going to have their incel apocalypse.
They're not going to be having children at a proper replacement rate.
And you've sort of mentioned how that could be grounds for some kind of conquest for them.
But there's only so far you can go with that.
I genuinely believe that the more comfortable China becomes, the more their citizenry is going to become like our own in many ways.
And I'm referring specifically to the unfortunate aspects of our citizenry.
They're not going to be as interested in virtue or self-development or even in family.
And I think their system is going to rot within.
And then we, on the other hand, will likely face some very difficult times.
And I think that's going to result in the average person becoming more virtuous.
And so there really is cause for hope here.
tim pool
Well, let's talk about A Cause for Hope, because the one thing that breaks all of this is independent media.
And we got this story from The Independent.
Jon Stewart sides with Joe Rogan as more artists leave Spotify.
This overreaction is a mistake.
Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, blah, blah, blah.
Then Crosby, Stills, and Nash.
Then Roxanne Gay, I believe her name is.
She's pulling her podcast.
I don't know what her podcast is, but she does have 800-some thousand followers on Twitter, so it's probably not nothing.
But check this out.
In what may be the weirdest turn in the Joe Rogan story, Mike.com reports Brazil's far-right president is thirsty for Joe Rogan on Maine.
Excellent headline, Mike.
Really, really desperate, but we get your point.
Bolsonaro tweeted, I'm not sure what Joe Rogan thinks about me or my government, but it doesn't matter.
If freedom of speech means anything, it means that people should be free to say what they think, no matter if they agree or disagree with us.
Stand your ground.
Hugs from Brazil.
We also have El Salvador.
What is this?
unidentified
Oh my gosh!
tim pool
Sarcasm font!
luke rudkowski
Freedom of the press is under attack in El Salvador but he did the Spongebob sarcasm.
specifically saying you know you know what freedom of the press is under
tim pool
attack in El Salvador but he did the the sponge sarcasm right Joe Rogan Joe yeah
the controversy around you has reached international incident proportions
I thought this was over.
We talked about it.
It's been like a month now.
Honestly, I was kind of like, okay, okay, are we done with this?
What's going on, man?
We live in a world where the president is demented.
Who you see the video of Jill holding his hand and walking him and he's like fumbling around like confused our
president's lost his mind He's deploying troops. We've got the fear factor guy is the
most influential media personality in the world Yeah, it's just it's quite well
luke rudkowski
The narrative crumbles under truth and they can't have people speaking the truth because when they do it literally
obliterates everything that they're trying to Accomplish which they would never be able to do if people
were in the dark and they were ignorant so they have to shut
People down and there has been a consorted multinational corporate effort to shut down Joe Rogan the
White House has been making statements saying that they need to do more to fight
misinformation Pretty much, you know, alluding to the fact that they need to censor Joe Rogan.
So when you have pressure from the U.S.
government, when you have pressure from the ESG, you know, Environmental Social Governance Credit Score, when you have major banks and investment firms coming to you saying, hey, get rid of him, take him out, we got to censor him, that's a lot of pressure.
But it also stands true to the important messages that he releases.
tim pool
Yeah, I'm loving this because I'm pretty sure all of this has increased Joe Rogan's influence and reach by a full order of magnitude or more.
seamus coughlin
There's something I want to point out about this story.
Firstly, I want to mention this.
Jon Stewart, he made a lot of the right noises.
He mentioned that this is an overreaction.
Unfortunately, he ends up saying something along the lines of, you know, the real problem is that the algorithms are promoting misinformation, which is kind of what we hear from left-wing people who want to censor this type of thing.
But I think that he might just be misled there.
Stewart does not come across as the kind of guy who wants to censor.
One thing I wanted to point out, though, Tim, at the end of the article in The Independent about this, we have a little blurb that a misinformation researcher called the warning labels on his podcasts Too little, too late.
You know who that misinformation researcher is?
Abby Richards.
The conspiracy theory pyramid.
tim pool
So Seamus made one of your best works, by the way.
seamus coughlin
Thank you.
tim pool
He analyzed Abby Richards' conspiracy theory pyramid, and she actually is—it's the most insane thing I've ever seen.
This woman, who's considered an expert, questions the Iran-Contra scandal.
Like, That's not, we know that happened!
seamus coughlin
And so what she said in response, yeah exactly, so what she said in response that was, oh well like I'm questioning Reagan's involvement, but the point is kind of moot because she's had to remake her conspiracy theory hierarchy pyramid scale more than once because things on it literally turned out to be true so she had to remove them.
tim pool
I just want to make this point for Luke while Luke is here.
She makes this pyramid where it's like small on the bottom it gets bigger on the top and as you get higher up it all of a sudden is like anti-semitic conspiracy theory alert and it's like Hallow Earth.
But one of the things she had on one of her original pyramids was Bill Gates microchipping people.
And she had to remove it because Bill Gates is developing birth control microchips for people.
There you go, Luke.
She had to take it out.
seamus coughlin
She had COVID lab leak under conspiracy theories as well.
She had to get rid of that.
There was another one.
I'm not sure if it would be too obscene to mention on air, but there was another one she mentioned.
tim pool
Where the hollow earth used the Lord of the Rings font.
seamus coughlin
The following, yes, no, that's right.
And then it's funny because she took the words deep state as a conspiracy theory and she put them in a zone she calls
the anti-semitic point of no return.
But then lower down on the pyramid someone pointed out she has FBI spied on MLK.
It's like wait, so do you believe in a deep state or not?
tim pool
She calls the, like if you believe in hollow earth you're an anti-semitic.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, which is crazy.
tim pool
If you believe in a deep state.
But then you made a really funny point in saying that she's the conspiracy theorist accusing all of these conspiracies of being connected.
seamus coughlin
Yes, exactly.
She calls them all Jewish and she also says they're all connected.
So, like, believing the deep state is, like, connected to believing in hollow earth and, like, all these absurd tenuous connections.
Go watch the video if you haven't watched it.
It's called Leftist Meme Review.
luke rudkowski
She's like the opposite of Alex Jones.
seamus coughlin
No, no, no.
tim pool
Well, yeah.
But to bring it all together, this is someone being quoted in a mainstream news source, in a corporate press, about accusing Joe Rogan of being misinformation.
And she had to remake her conspiracy chart because she got it wrong so much.
seamus coughlin
She literally said that multiple things were called conspiracy theories that were too dangerous to believe on her chart that literally turned out to be true.
unidentified
So she had to remove them from updates.
tim pool
I'm having a good time.
Spotify CEO is defending Joe Rogan again, saying that there will be opinions and beliefs that we disagree with, but they're not in the business of dictating discourse.
I want to give a special shout out to Joe, because he's done something tremendous for all of us.
By being on Spotify, Unity did, he basically just built a 30 foot beautiful concrete wall from sea to shining sea.
Because what happens now is Spotify, they staked a claim on his show.
They say, we need this to make money.
We want this show.
The more Joe has on controversial figures, the more we on our podcasts are able to have on controversial figures as well.
Because when they, the CEO coming out now and saying, well, there's going to be people we disagree with.
unidentified
Yep.
tim pool
Because they can't ban Joe.
So Joe becomes the baseline for what is basically allowed.
And if Joe's going to talk to Robert Malone and Peter McCullough, everyone else can too.
They still might hold a double standard, mind you, but it sets that limit.
ian crossland
We don't need his permission though.
We can do it.
We can pioneer it as well.
tim pool
It's not about his permission.
It's about Spotify's now in the position of being like, but if we ban them, people are going to come at us about Rogan and we don't want to lose that money.
So just stop, stop.
luke rudkowski
He's pushing the Overton window with what is acceptable to even be talked about, and when he's talking to mainline medical professionals that big tech social media companies censor, like people who are accredited, people who are in the field of mRNA vaccines, people who literally helped develop them, he's bringing information and knowledge that is becoming sacred, but he's making it mainstream.
He's absolutely obliterating the official narrative just by simply questioning it.
He's not making statements.
He's talking to individuals from both sides.
He's not just interviewing conspiracy theorists or crazies or or people who are on the French.
He's also interviewing Sanjay Gupta of all people.
There's no way to attack this individual.
So they literally make stuff up out of nowhere and they're trying to destroy him not even on any significant charges.
They don't have anything.
What do they have on him?
tim pool
The only way for the left to win is through authoritarianism.
And I'll be real, I've talked about it before.
When you look at the political compass, you're talking about economic left and libertarians, so left libertarians.
It is life on hard mode.
This idea that you're going to convince everyone to cooperate and agree outside of capital is almost a pipe dream.
I think it's fantastic, but only works at really small scales.
So as the left starts gaining more and more power, the only way to convert people, because
they're going to fundamentally disagree with you, is through force.
So they ban people, they censor.
You look at all these countries, that's how they have to pull it off.
ian crossland
They smeared Bolsonaro so hard.
I thought this guy was like a lunatic for the last couple years when I've just the media has been talking about this far right authoritarian Brazilian guy and I'm like, okay, here we go.
We got another hardline Nazi in power, but it turns out this guy supports American free speech and is going to speak up for Joe Rogan.
luke rudkowski
Well, Jon Stewart made a good point.
He said, you know, instead of just trying to counsel someone, debate that person.
He didn't say it exactly like that, but he said counter their points.
What points are they countering that Joe Rogan has made?
What arguments are they going against Joe Rogan?
tim pool
That's the point.
They can't.
luke rudkowski
Exactly.
ian crossland
So Sanjay, try.
tim pool
Yeah, well Sanjay was forced to admit he was lying.
You know what's really funny?
You take Sanjay out of his protective bubble and all of a sudden he is like, yeah, it was not true.
seamus coughlin
Shouldn't have said that.
We shouldn't have said that.
luke rudkowski
He was a bumbling buffoon and then went on CNN the next day and said, and contradicted himself, which is crazy and said, oh yeah, I didn't mean that.
seamus coughlin
It's kind of hilarious though.
It's like everyone could see both.
What was he thinking?
It was like talk smack about somebody to their face or I'm sorry, behind their back, like on air.
ian crossland
Yeah.
You're not behind their back when you're on air.
luke rudkowski
Well, you're on CNN.
You don't get that many viewers now.
Let's be fair.
seamus coughlin
He kind of had faith no one would see it.
tim pool
The only way the left is able to maintain any kind of narrative is through sophistry.
Manipulating, withholding information, censoring, shutting people down.
ian crossland
I think if CNN and MSNBC went out of business tomorrow, like just disappeared, things, the world would change dramatically.
tim pool
I don't know if I agree.
ian crossland
Really?
tim pool
Yeah, somebody would replace them.
It would be Young Turks or something like that.
And to be honest, their ratings are so so far down in the gutter.
ian crossland
So you think you can't I guess erasing the channel is different than erasing the methodology.
You think the methodology is just going to perpetuate.
seamus coughlin
Oh, yeah.
Look, you're always going to have people who are willing to lie for money, and you're always going to have people with a set political agenda who are okay misleading the public.
tim pool
And Maddow's gone anyway.
Her show's changing, I guess what it's like once a week, and then she's out for two weeks.
So she's basically just like, you know, she's cashed out as much as she could ripping off these people.
I love how these people go on Twitter and they're like, they're all right-wing grifters.
unidentified
Blah, blah, blah.
tim pool
It's like, yo, Rachel Maddow and Brian Stelter and Don Lemon and Chris Cuomo, like, Cuomo literally pretended he was under quarantine.
You guys are getting ripped off like crazy.
It's sad, man, it is.
But I wonder how many of those people, like, they know it and they're just enforcers for these evil people, right?
Like they're not, how many, how many of these people who are supporting them actually believe it or know it's a lie, but are in on it and helping?
luke rudkowski
I think there's a big proportion of it that's evil.
I think that there's a reason some of them get caught doing spirit cooking and all the horrible things.
I think it gets even far worse or far deeper than we could even imagine.
I think we're only scratching the surface with just how bad some of these people are.
And then on the other half, there are some dumb people who are just following along and repeating the things just to be accepted as in.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, I think there's also a third group here, which is people who genuinely believe in the cause and they do this very dangerous thing, which is rationalize telling lies in order to get their agenda across.
People will convince themselves that it isn't wrong to lie about something if they think the greater good will come about through telling that lie.
And I think that's true in a very large majority of cases when it comes to these news reporters because they're saying things that at some point they have to know aren't true.
And I think they're able to rationalize that by saying, I'm one of the good guys.
What I want for the world is better than what these Republicans want for the world.
And they're willing to lie to get it.
So why don't I do the same?
luke rudkowski
You need a lot of drugs to be in that state, to be honest with you.
And I highly doubt there's a lot of them.
seamus coughlin
I know.
I know.
I think it's actually very common.
tim pool
They're children.
They have a children's view.
They view the world digitally.
Like, we're at point A and we'd like to get to point C. And that means point B is going to be brutal dictatorship.
But point C is beautiful.
They believe the ends justify the means because they have the mentality of toddlers.
But the danger is... Because they don't realize that you never meet the end.
If your end goal was the extermination of all humanity, Okay, well then I understand you'd say the ends justify the means, because we're gonna get to the end in about five years if we enact this policy.
But if your goal is, we want to create a socialist utopia, and we're willing to wipe out, you know, people to get it, then how do you defend your new utopia from the next revolution?
It's the same tired story.
There is no end.
There's maintenance after you achieve your goal.
And maintenance, using those strategies, is just despotism, authoritarianism, dictatorship, fascism, etc.
ian crossland
I saw a friend of mine from, one of my best friends from childhood, we were having an adult conversation in our 30s.
This is like three or four years ago after Trump got elected.
And he was like, we need to use their tactics against them.
That's fascist.
We need to use, I don't know if he was saying street violence, coercion.
He was like, we will use whatever tactics.
And I thought, so you have to understand.
You're becoming the demon that you want to destroy if you're doing that.
The process is the destiny.
I was trying to explain, and it was so disturbing to hear an adult that I have trusted my entire life say these things to me after we've been through it together and talked about how you can't use the evil methodology to defeat evil.
It's impossible, but still he's brainwashed.
seamus coughlin
Well, yeah, but I would say it's even worse than that, Ian.
You said it's sort of like trying to become the beast to defeat the beast.
But when he's saying we need to use street violence against these Trump supporters, we need to use their tactics against them, what street violence is he talking about?
ian crossland
I think it was the Proud Boys anti-curfuffle.
tim pool
But the Proud Boys weren't starting those fights.
ian crossland
It's all whatever the media made them think, I didn't ask.
seamus coughlin
Exactly.
So what happens is oftentimes a person will think I'm fighting fire with fire when they were just propagandized to think the other side was using fire in the first place.
So they're just attacking innocent people.
tim pool
That's exactly what it is.
The far left goes out and says, we're defending ourselves as they burn down small businesses.
It is psychotic.
And they believe the ends justify the means.
They're like, well, if we burn down these buildings, then in one year, we'll have a utopia.
It's like, yo, that's not going to happen because the guy who's building you burn down, he's going to come back with his own group of people protesting against you for being violent psychopaths.
ian crossland
Yeah, and the children of the people getting bombed in the Middle East are going to remember that their entire life.
tim pool
There's a great song about this that I heard.
It's called Will of the People.
It's by Tim Kast.
ian crossland
Oh yeah.
tim pool
And it shows the cycle of revenge.
seamus coughlin
By Timothy Kast, right?
tim pool
That's right.
unidentified
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
tim pool
Shout Out is a song that I wrote.
ian crossland
The cycle never ends.
It only begins again.
tim pool
That's right.
So at the end of the song, one of the, well, many of you have probably already seen it, it's called Will of the People.
People are pulling down a statue, but every time they pull it down, it just rotates and another one comes up.
It's not my idea, that was a piece of artwork based on the Arab Spring, that every time they pull one statue of a dictator down, it just springs up the next one.
That's what it is.
And these people don't understand that there's always a cycle of authoritarianism, of violence.
That's why the best thing we can do is build a system right now that respects people's fundamental rights, doesn't engage in these tactics, And that's literally how you get your utopia.
unidentified
Yeah.
luke rudkowski
When you have freedom, you have prosperity.
It's that simple.
When you have governments controlling every aspect of your existence, destroying capital and destroying the free flow of it, you have, again, the downgrushing and the downgrading of humanity.
tim pool
Let's piss off YouTube and talk about guns.
Joe Biden says, Fox News reports, Biden repeats debunked Second Amendment canon claim, says no amendment is absolute.
This guy, look, I think Joe Biden is demented.
I think he's just generally not there.
Shrewd and on a shabba to pressure, if you know what I mean.
He says gibberish like that.
He's got hairy legs.
ian crossland
I got hairy legs, the kids sit on my lap.
tim pool
From the Washington Post, where democracy dies in darkness, Biden's false claim, the Second Amendment, bans canon ownership.
Ladies and gentlemen, not only could you actually buy canons back then when they drafted the Constitution.
seamus coughlin
And he was there.
tim pool
You can buy canons right now!
It's like, Joe Biden just makes this stuff up.
I honestly believe he knows he's lying, but he says this because he's trying to change the cultural perspective of Americans.
He wants Americans to go around saying lies.
It's really annoying when I have these lefty people.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry I left.
I shouldn't say lefty people, because the left likes guns.
The liberal establishment Democrat types.
I can't stand it when they're like, calm down.
unidentified
No one's trying to take your guns away.
tim pool
And I was like, my Barrett, my Barrett M82 is banned in this state, this state, this state.
And then they go, well, but why would you need that?
Hey, don't change, don't move the goalposts.
luke rudkowski
My flamethrowers banned in Maryland.
I want to have my flamethrower here.
I can't.
tim pool
Waco.
seamus coughlin
Yeah.
lydia smith
Yes.
tim pool
Not trying to take our guns.
Joe Biden is a liar.
Yes. And you take a look at what's going on the truckers.
unidentified
Yes.
tim pool
You mentioned this last night.
The military is concerned about going in and rounding people up because they might be armed.
Not so. So you don't need guns to engage in active conflict.
It prevents active conflict. It is a force balancer. Joe Biden wants to crack down and take
people's guns as they always do.
This is Biden's DOJ plan on gun crime.
Prioritize gun violence.
Crack down on trafficking.
National Ghost Gun Enforcement Initiative.
Pursue gun sellers of illegal guns.
$500 million in reducing gun crime.
Yo, they tried several years ago banning all semi-automatic weapons.
unidentified
Yep.
seamus coughlin
And completely insane, because no one knows what semi-automatic means.
That's the problem.
People who don't have guns don't know what semi-automatic means.
tim pool
The liberal, they do this all the time, and I think a lot of it's on purpose.
They'll take a picture of a rifle and call it an automatic weapon.
seamus coughlin
Yes.
It's a verbal slight of hand.
tim pool
Yep.
seamus coughlin
Because they can say, oh, well, I meant semi-automatic, which is a type of automatic.
It's like, come on, you know what you're doing.
tim pool
Yo, it's just like with the Joe Rogan thing.
They don't know what they're talking about.
They don't care what they're talking about.
They just want a virtue signal.
And there's a very serious problem.
I said it before, I'll say it again.
Michael Malice likes to say, how could you possibly be blackpilled when you see how stupid these people are?
And I'm just like, yo, a zombie is stupid, but a thousand of them are formidable and can take over a city and then convert people into zombies and all that stuff.
So when I see hordes of people on Twitter who have no idea what they're talking about, Covington Kids.
You wanna know what worries me?
The Covington Kid incident shows how a large group of NPCs can destroy the life of teenagers, and what could be done.
Now, we effectively countered that, proved the lies, but it doesn't always happen that way.
Look at Russiagate.
Look at UkraineGate.
seamus coughlin
No, I mean, you're right.
We don't always win, but I think people are starting to wake up to it.
And there are reasons to be white-pilled.
And their stupidity is one of those reasons.
I remember when I was looking at the footage of Nick Sandman a couple years ago, you had the black Hebrew Israelites there, and the way the media reported on it was that they were young African-American men preaching about the Bible and oppression, which is a hilarious way of characterizing that.
If you have any idea what the black Hebrew Israelites were saying, these are things that would get your channel banned if I said them out loud.
You were also talking a little bit earlier about the fact that lefties really do like gun crime.
Or I'm sorry, don't like gun crime.
They actually don't have a problem with guns.
And it's true.
And you sort of mentioned establishment liberal types tend to be more likely to be in favor of gun control.
But one thing I found is a lot of the more like milquetoast establishment Democrat liberals I know say that the one conservative position they have is that they're against gun control.
It is a losing issue for the left.
Luke!
tim pool
And I think there's a white pill there as well. Just want to mention as a as an absolute aside to derail
seamus coughlin
Yeah, I just want to say part of the reason I got tripped up verbally there is because Tim was like standing messing
tim pool
with things On the table Lou very Rutkowski look broke. Yep our Fauci
bobblehead I was redecorating.
seamus coughlin
I tried to stop him.
tim pool
He wanted to put the gorilla on top of Fauci.
unidentified
He did, yes.
luke rudkowski
I was redecorating and then we were working on a thumb for the vlog where the gorilla was with Fauci, with Seamus' face.
seamus coughlin
I literally tried stopping him from doing this.
luke rudkowski
There was some motion action that was happening for the thumbnail.
seamus coughlin
Luke, you are literally hurting your credibility.
You're hurting your credibility as a journalist.
tim pool
How do we get the rights to that song by Celine Dion?
seamus coughlin
Fauci's glasses fell off.
luke rudkowski
Everyone not watching, the gorilla was on top of Fauci, the glasses fell off, the feet were disconnected.
seamus coughlin
It was childish, it was ridiculous.
I tried to put a stop to it.
Anyone who watches the vlog is going to know that Luke is lying.
You've just undermined your credibility as a journalist.
Your career is over.
tim pool
Anyway, what were we talking about?
unidentified
We were talking about- We were having a serious discussion and then Luke comes in with his shenanigans.
luke rudkowski
This was before the show, first of all.
We were talking about specifically how when governments disarm citizens historically, this usually leads to a lot of atrocities.
Always does, always.
seamus coughlin
Do this for me, do this for me.
Also, this is what I'm saying.
Democrats, even establishment Democrats, the actual constituents are generally against gun control.
tim pool
Right, right, right.
So let me ask the audience a question.
I'd like to ask the audience.
Can you name a country for me where they enacted extreme gun control measures and then people didn't lose their rights right afterwards?
luke rudkowski
Or like, you know, or there wasn't a massacre or genocide.
tim pool
No, no, no, no. I mean, Australia is not they're, they've lost their rights. I don't know about, you
know, right, right, right. So here's the issue. The issue might be that we're all just losing
our rights anyway, regardless of whether or not they took our guns. But, oh, but this is the thing.
seamus coughlin
So you're absolutely correct that if people stand by their rights are taken away.
But when you look at, for example, the Freedom Convoy and the fact that the police were too afraid to do anything about it because they thought those truckers might be armed, it goes to show that when people do stand for themselves, even if they as an individual don't have a gun, the idea that they could have a gun is enough to stop the government from cracking down on them.
luke rudkowski
And this idea of personal responsibility, of firearms, it's an idea that's becoming more popular even amongst the left, especially when we look at it from a state-by-state issues.
The people's ability to be able to defend themselves is ... dramatically going up on the state level because people ... are realizing hey the government is absolutely not ... working in the benefit of the general public when there's a ... pandemic there they're firing hospital workers when there's ... a supply chain crisis there limiting the amount of trucks ... that could go through the border.
When there's a financial crisis, they're spending more money.
When there's a potential war, they're firing members of the military for not following their VAX mandates.
They're doing the exact opposite of what they should be doing.
They do not care about you.
And the only person responsible for you yourself as an individual is yourself and no one else.
And people realize that more than ever because the lie and the mystery of government is being unraveled right in front of them.
And people are saying, hey, I got to be dependent on myself and no one else.
tim pool
I'm hearing this this impassioned plea from Luke, very seriously standing on the soapbox, demanding that people stand up for their rights, and it's very difficult to take seriously because of his shirt.
The Real Island Boys.
luke rudkowski
Hey, you gotta call these players out, because these are big players that are pushing these agendas, that are trying to turn America into communist China, where the people are disarmed.
They disarmed people in communist China and then what happened to that?
Well this this is a shirt it's a classy elegant shirt that you should wear at very fancy events
Proper attire and it's a nice photo of Bill Gates and Mr.
Epstein You know depicted as the real island boys on Jeffrey Epstein's
tim pool
Little St. James Island And having fun staring at this while Luke is like you must
preserve your rights and stand up I know, I know.
It's ridiculous.
luke rudkowski
It's not ridiculous, it's a very serious shirt that should bring attention to the very close bromance that Bill Gates had with Jeffrey Epstein that was far more extensive, with their common thread of population control that they loved and shared.
There's a reason the corporate media doesn't want to talk about this.
tim pool
I'm not ragging on your shirt.
seamus coughlin
Hold on.
Gates told us Epstein was giving him marriage advice, right?
luke rudkowski
I don't know about that.
No, no, no.
seamus coughlin
I don't think he said that.
luke rudkowski
I think Bill Gates said he died and he was dead and there's no reason to talk about it.
unidentified
I will say this.
tim pool
That was crazy.
ian crossland
That interview was awesome.
tim pool
He was like, what does it matter?
He's dead.
ian crossland
So what do you think about, how do you feel about your relationship with him looking back?
unidentified
And he's like, well, you know, he's dead, so... Oh my God, Bill Gates.
luke rudkowski
Absolutely right on the nail on the head.
seamus coughlin
You picked it perfectly.
luke rudkowski
Hold on, hold on.
He was so nervous as well.
seamus coughlin
Hey, I was correct.
Now, to be fair, this is the Daily Beast, but headline, Jeffrey Epstein gave Bill Gates advice on how to end his, quote, toxic marriage.
luke rudkowski
Who's the source on that?
seamus coughlin
This is, I mean, it's the Daily Beast.
Are you going to question that?
Exactly.
luke rudkowski
I don't trust the Daily Beast.
unidentified
Hold on.
seamus coughlin
Hey, New York Post.
luke rudkowski
Exactly.
seamus coughlin
New York Post.
Luke is just going to disagree with everything I say and he's going to go, I don't trust that source.
Then he's going to be like, I went to like conspiracy.blogspot.net and I heard that Bill Gates and Jeffrey Epstein.
luke rudkowski
A lot more credible than the corporate media as of late.
To be fair, to be honest.
seamus coughlin
To be fair, you're not wrong.
luke rudkowski
The conspiracy theories have been spoiler alerts.
It's true.
ian crossland
Is disclosed.tv legit?
Because I keep seeing like new media, new news pops up on it.
And it's like, is this, it looks real.
tim pool
Well, yeah, as far as I can tell, they're good.
So I follow disclosed.tv on Twitter.
lydia smith
They're just an aggregator.
tim pool
Yeah.
And it's so whenever I see him tweet something, I always verify anybody tweets something.
I'll see it.
I'll try and verify sources.
I try and find what the root source of it is.
Disclosed tends to just be aggregating legitimate news sources.
unidentified
All right.
ian crossland
Yeah.
Good.
So you're saying that the New York Post reported that Bill Gates asked Epstein for marriage
seamus coughlin
Yeah, that he gave him advice on his, quote, toxic marriage.
I'm not sure.
luke rudkowski
I don't know why that's so funny to me that, like, either of them would refer to a marriage in these, like... Well, it was allegedly because of his relationship with Epstein why Bill Gates' wife divorced him.
Because it was coming to light and because he refused to stop hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein.
seamus coughlin
Dude, Bill Gates' wife was like, you know, like, I don't think it, I think it's a little weird that this guy has this island, and Epstein's like, she's toxic, bro.
She's toxic, you have to get away from her.
luke rudkowski
Toxic femininity.
seamus coughlin
She's a toxic woman.
You gotta stay away.
I'm your only friend, Bill.
unidentified
That's right.
ian crossland
Meet a girl like Ghislaine, man.
unidentified
She'll follow you anywhere, Bill.
Oh, man.
seamus coughlin
Hey, there's a shirt, Luke.
luke rudkowski
Which one?
tim pool
Find a woman that loves you the way Ghislaine loved Geoffrey and followed them all.
unidentified
Too much.
luke rudkowski
Ghislaine Maxwell did not, you know, off herself shirt as well.
But that one's ahead of its time.
ian crossland
Did she get convicted?
Because I stopped following the court case.
luke rudkowski
Yes.
And we're waiting for sentencing.
And we're going to see what's going to happen.
But they're also calling for a mistrial because they're saying... Retrial.
Yeah.
Yeah, because they're saying one of the jurors was tampered with and had previous instances of also being hurt as a child, and therefore it implicated the case here.
tim pool
It's amazing that they've not implicated any of the people who are part of the trafficking, you know what I mean?
luke rudkowski
Yeah, it's like they ran an illicit business with really horrible things.
Okay, who was buying and purchasing all those horrible, illicit, illegal things?
seamus coughlin
If only he had footage of everyone who went there and did anything illegal.
If only he had been filming that stuff and the FBI went there and were able to find the footage.
luke rudkowski
If only there was a safe with FBI labels on them already.
If only that would happen.
seamus coughlin
Can you imagine?
What a crazy world.
tim pool
I just want to point out to everybody that this show gets, between its clips and the live show, almost a million and a half, two million.
And we're sitting here talking about Bill Gates and Epstein.
luke rudkowski
I absolutely love it.
tim pool
We're winning.
We're absolutely winning.
seamus coughlin
We're going to get tired of winning.
We're winning so much.
unidentified
That's true.
tim pool
The people who are hearing this every day, all day, every day, of course they're trying to censor us.
Of course they're trying to censor everybody else.
You know, they've gone really hard against Steven Crowder.
They're obviously going after Joe Rogan.
But I'm just sitting here, listening to Luke's wearing a shirt with Bill Gates and Epstein on it, and we're broadcasting this out to like 50,000 concurrent people.
You know, we'll get like half a million in total on the episode.
seamus coughlin
Are you trying to get banned right now?
tim pool
I'm just saying even if it was just right now I'm like we stood atop that hill and held up that picture for all of these people to see.
The narrative is shattering, their control is shattering, the people are winning.
ian crossland
I just it feels good, you know, but it's like it's like dipping our toes into hot lava Like seeing all this stuff is like now we finally see the hot lava.
Let's find out.
Oh, that's that's too hot I'm not jumping in.
I don't want to know who was at Epstein's Island necessarily.
luke rudkowski
I do.
ian crossland
I do, but I don't want to get killed in my sleep.
tim pool
So I don't want to talk about it.
It's hot lava.
ian crossland
Let's figure out another way to investigate the lava.
seamus coughlin
Let me ask you something.
If there was anything worth getting killed in your sleep for exposing.
luke rudkowski
I like the way you think, Shaq.
seamus coughlin
Thank you.
luke rudkowski
I actually agree with Seamus.
My goodness.
unidentified
I can't believe I'm shameless.
Well, I'm a smart guy.
seamus coughlin
You should listen to me more often.
luke rudkowski
I question that.
But that other point, but that point you made specifically about life being challenging and
going up against the biggest evils being worthwhile
and making something extremely challenging for yourself is a great point that you bring up here because we're
going at the tip of the spear.
We're going after some of the most powerful, most sinister, most horrible individuals on the face of this earth who do unspeakable things.
We only know a shred of what actually is behind this whole freaking system that is riddled with So many people getting hurt.
So many children being hurt in unspeakable ways.
There's so many monsters out there.
And if there's anything you should dedicate your life to in this existence, it's to fighting those monsters and protecting the innocent.
And this is important work that needs to be done.
And I thank you guys for giving me the opportunity to even speak about some of these issues.
tim pool
It is because We recognize the risks in speaking out about these things and accept them and speak about them anyway, that we're winning.
It's because Joe Rogan stands in the face of these people trying to cancel him and says, I'm going to have these conversations.
These guys are credentialed.
They're well respected.
I just want to have these conversations.
He tries to be polite about it.
But if we were the kind of people that were like, well, we shouldn't bring up some of the darkest and most dangerous subjects.
No, I'll be completely honest with you guys.
There's censorship.
We have to navigate this minefield same as anybody else.
So we use Rumble.
So we set up a TimCast.com.
So we put episodes that get a little spicy on Rumble to make sure the conversations will persist.
It's not a perfect scenario.
We are in a conflict over our right to speak our minds, but we are actively navigating that landscape to make sure we do.
This was not possible several decades ago.
We can come on YouTube.
When we, when we get issues on YouTube, we put them up on Rumble and our episode with Darren Beattie is our biggest podcast ever with like 2.4 million views.
Because when they come after us, we put it up and even more people get to see it.
They can try and censor us, but we are not backing down.
We recognize, you know, we're, like I said, navigating a minefield, but we're going to keep pushing and making sure the conversations happen.
luke rudkowski
In an intelligent way with alternatives and backups where they can't get us and they can't screw us over.
And even when they do, when they attack us, they only prop us up.
Joe Rogan's viewership is dramatically increasing right now, more than it ever probably has before, with so many governments, with so many corporations attacking him, trying to silence him.
They only strengthen his voice and everyone else with the ability of the opportunities we have in front of us right now to change the world for the better.
tim pool
I'd be willing to bet Joe's probably been hit up more to go on his show now than ever before.
lydia smith
Oh yeah.
luke rudkowski
Absolutely.
tim pool
From everybody.
Cause they're like, this is the platform.
But I mean, he's like, he's hosting Robert Malone and the people who are in the know, know, and they're interested.
Now with all of this craziness, you've probably got some PR guy and he's like, you got to get some controversy going.
Go on Joe Rogan's show.
It's going to be big buzz and then they're going to make a big stink about it.
And then you're going to be the, look, look at Robert Malone is a household name now because of this story.
luke rudkowski
Peter McCullough as well, also a mainline doctor that has the credentials.
He's not a crazy person.
He's not a conspiracy theorist.
These are medical professionals bringing forward data and information for Americans to consume and to critically think about, and the establishment is losing their ish over it.
They're becoming so desperate.
They're becoming so pathetic because of data and information and people realizing that they have been conned.
tim pool
I want you to, for all of you who have seen the movie The Patriot with Mel Gibson, Just remember that scene when the line breaks and they all start retreating, but then Mel Gibson grabs the American flag and says, oh, the line, and he just runs the other direction.
And then all of the revolutionary soldiers turn around and run with him.
And he's like, ah, that's what it feels like.
The mainstream media imploding, the ratings in the gutter.
There was a time where I was pessimistic.
Now I'm watching CNN just literally erupt in scandals where Cuomo is outing Zucker and he's losing his job and it's implicating Democrats and I'm sitting back with my feet up laughing.
luke rudkowski
There's this famous meme of two people fighting and the guy in the background kind of smoking a bong laughing about the whole situation and then there's a new meme that came out with CNN fighting CNN and then in the background is also CNN smoking the bong watching CNN just destroy itself internally from itself.
That's literally what's happening right now and that there's consequences for lying.
There's consequences for distorting reality and doing the bidding of the special multi-billion corporate dollar freaking institutions that are robbing us blinds.
There's going to be ramifications for doing bad things.
I think those ramifications are going to be felt more than ever, especially with the cases, COVID cases going dramatically down and people realizing, hey, there was a lot of things up here that Weren't going to be passing any kind of reality tests.
tim pool
They're canceling themselves over this.
seamus coughlin
I love it.
tim pool
They're they're they're like, well, I'm gonna ban myself from Spotify.
It's like, okay.
luke rudkowski
Censor yourself.
seamus coughlin
That was always allowed.
ian crossland
You know what concerns me about what you were saying earlier, Luke, about the I guess the monsters of Earth, the human monsters of Earth that are doing these horrible things like even if they disappeared tomorrow, this is kind of like we were talking about with the methodology and the If they were just all disappear, you'd still have monstrous behavior.
And so it's like, if we spend our life fighting monsters, not only do you yourself become a target because the monsters want you dead, but there's always going to be more monsters.
seamus coughlin
Yeah.
luke rudkowski
The price of liberty is eternal vigilance.
unidentified
Yes.
luke rudkowski
It's understandable.
It's okay.
Like, I mean, this is, do you want challenges in your life or do you want, when you play video games, do you want to be challenged or do you want easy video games that would give you everything and give you all the cheat codes?
ian crossland
The point is the challenge.
luke rudkowski
Exactly.
tim pool
There's a saying that, I can't remember who said it, but life is like a treadmill.
If you stand still, you move backwards.
If you walk, you stay where you are.
You have to run to get ahead.
And that's what we're doing every day.
At the bare minimum, in the constant vigilance for freedom, we are walking and exerting energy to make sure we're maintaining that.
And if you want to win more ground in that fight for freedom, you have to be pushing as hard as you can.
Because if at any point you just stop and stand still, they start taking as much as they can away from you.
seamus coughlin
No, it's true.
It's funny because people will often speak as though our goal should be to set up a system that's going to be perpetually functional.
The reality is you can't do that.
You just have to try to find a way to foster a culture where people are going to be raising their children with positive ideas and virtues.
unidentified
But it is eternal vigilance, like Luke said.
That's what you need.
luke rudkowski
I didn't say it was a famous quote.
seamus coughlin
Oh, you just came up with it.
No, I know that.
unidentified
It's plagiarism.
I don't know, I gotta talk slow sometimes when I talk to you.
seamus coughlin
I get that you're wearing glasses right now, but do you think I think you're that smart?
ian crossland
Hold on.
What do you think about what he thinks about what I think about?
seamus coughlin
What do you think about what I think about what he thinks about?
ian crossland
Hey, how was Florida?
I hear you were there.
luke rudkowski
It's amazing.
I'm not going to answer your questions.
ian crossland
You've been in Florida for a couple of days, dude.
luke rudkowski
Yes.
And it's amazing.
I came here for a debate and a conversation to be had, which I was really looking forward to, but it's okay.
ian crossland
Is it like, does your DNA just change?
Can you feel the vibration when you enter that state?
luke rudkowski
I just feel alive.
I feel really happy.
I don't know if it's just the sun or just the people or the opportunities there.
I just love being down there and it gives me a lot of peace of mind and it gives me a lot of inspiration.
So I'm happy.
seamus coughlin
I'm sure they love you too.
tim pool
People need to understand how crazy it is that for those that live in New York who have been under permanent lockdown for years, people in Florida are just like, what?
seamus coughlin
Yeah.
tim pool
No, it's like going to the store like normal, eating pizza.
luke rudkowski
Well, it depends where you go.
There's also a lot of city areas that are also, you know, they have the Karens and the Kiles there.
But it's good.
There's going to be a very big political fight in Florida coming up in the next few months, especially with the race for the next governor.
So this is going to be a place that's going to be very important for the future of this country.
Florida has been leading the way when it came to challenging a lot of the stupid narratives out there and changing the face of the United States.
So I believe the battlegrounds are in Florida, and that's why I'm going to be there.
ian crossland
We had some plans to go at the end of February.
I think those got pushed back.
luke rudkowski
Well, CPAC is in a few days.
I'm going to be at that.
And then there's also the Bitcoin conference happening in a few weeks, which is also going to bring a lot of major players.
The issue is that the person we hired to do our trailer has just Yeah, but we could probably work something out and find good electricity and good internet at a location where we don't have to depend on any of that other stuff.
seamus coughlin
It's funny, Tim, because you mentioned people in New York not knowing that they're not really understanding that there are parts of the country where things are somewhat normal.
For the first couple months of the lockdown, I was up in Illinois, and then I ended up escaping back on down to Georgia.
And the difference in attitudes was almost unbelievable.
It was like nothing was even happening once I got back down there.
People were living their lives.
They were like normal, healthy human beings.
It was very strange.
It was jarring for me.
tim pool
Where we are right now, we're, you know, in the tri-state with Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland.
You go into Frederick County, mask mandates.
seamus coughlin
Yeah.
tim pool
Now on the outskirts of it, they usually, they kind of don't bother you.
But if you go downtown, it's, they're insane.
They scream.
You drive for five minutes and they're like, mask?
unidentified
What?
seamus coughlin
What's that?
tim pool
What's that?
seamus coughlin
Why would I wear one?
luke rudkowski
That's why there's so much economic prosperity in Florida right now, because businesses weren't hindered by the lockdowns or mandates or kicking their customers out for not following the decrees of their overlords.
There's a lot of opportunity, especially economic opportunity down there, and things are booming.
tim pool
West Virginia is doing well, too, relatively.
luke rudkowski
Relatively.
tim pool
There was a funny story in the AP about this teacher who lived in West Virginia and said she fled the state.
And everyone I know, like from all the Facebook groups in West Virginia, are like, Yay!
Like these urban liberal teachers are complaining about things and leaving.
Good.
ian crossland
I wonder if in 20 years, a bunch of our leaders are going to be like, yeah, I was from Florida.
Yeah, I'm from Florida too.
seamus coughlin
You're from Florida?
ian crossland
Yeah, I'm from Florida.
And like all these adults now that are like normal are because they came from places that didn't have to cover their face for two years.
luke rudkowski
Hold on, hold on.
tim pool
And what do you say in 20 years, you said?
ian crossland
Yeah, in 20 years.
tim pool
In 20 years, there's going to be like a dude and he's wearing a jean jacket with the sleeves ripped off and he's going to have like an eye patch and he's going to be like, are you from Florida?
And the other guy's gonna be dressed the same, and he's gonna be like, I am too.
And they're gonna turn, there's gonna be a bunch of NPC zombie people in the post-apocalyptic- For Florida!
For Florida!
It's like, you ever play Fallout New Vegas?
ian crossland
Yeah.
tim pool
In New Vegas, for those unfamiliar, Fallout is a video game, it's a story universe based on a post-apocalyptic world.
And the US, you know, all the world is bombed, you know, nuclear bombs go off, blah blah blah, cities are wiped out.
In the New Vegas storyline, there's the new California Republic.
Which is after the apocalypse, they start rebuilding their government.
I gotta say, now, based on what we know about actual history, if I was gonna make a game, it would be the new Florida Republic.
All the rest of the country would be in, like, shambles, and the economy would be, like, a disaster.
And then you'd have, like, parts of Texas, New Hampshire, and Florida would be like, kinda alright.
ian crossland
Yeah, I bet they would recover Louisiana.
The whole Gulf.
And Mexico.
Maybe start a new country down there.
unidentified
You know, it's funny what you're saying about how they're all going to pretend to be from Florida.
seamus coughlin
I bet you that in like 20 years, the Democrats are going to, the Democrats are going to be like, no, we were like way against the lockdown.
It's like the party switched.
There was a big party switch like 10 years ago.
You guys remember?
Like we were against all of that.
luke rudkowski
Masks?
Totally not.
We weren't telling people to put pantyhose on their face.
seamus coughlin
It's ridiculous.
Why would we do that?
ian crossland
Back in the beginning of the pandemic, we specifically said, don't buy masks.
tim pool
I want to point out, uh, Ian just said that all of the Gulf will form a new country, and I'm just like, yeah, they tried that before, Ian.
It didn't work out too well.
ian crossland
Oh yeah, wait, that was Texas, right?
unidentified
No.
ian crossland
The Lone Star State.
tim pool
It was called the Civil War!
ian crossland
Yeah, well I'm talking about, you know, in like a Fallout scenario.
It'd be cool to have like a free, a free area of the world on that.
They got their own ocean.
seamus coughlin
Ian's like, then we can do it!
unidentified
Then the South can rise again!
Then it will be fine!
ian crossland
In a video game!
In a video game.
tim pool
Florida, man.
Florida's pretty good, but I like West Virginia, you know?
It's very nice.
It's got a good mix of seasons.
Florida, man.
There's coconuts everywhere.
I had a yard.
unidentified
What's wrong with coconuts?
tim pool
No, no, hold on.
Listen, listen.
Yo, I had a place in Florida.
It was in the Redlands, which is about 40 minutes west of Miami, southwest.
It's my homestead.
It's where that facility for migrant kids was placed.
We had too many coconuts.
They were everywhere!
Like you walked outside and there was literally a thousand coconuts along the edge of the yard.
And I'm like, I don't even know what I'm supposed to do with all these coconuts.
There's just too many.
It was awful.
ian crossland
What do you do with them all?
unidentified
I don't know.
tim pool
We just left them.
ian crossland
Stick a screwdriver in there and drink it.
luke rudkowski
You become a good entrepreneur and then you build a stand and then you put them on the stand and you say coconuts for $5 each.
Pick one and then use an honor system.
unidentified
I think the man made a good point.
luke rudkowski
You don't even have to work.
tim pool
I think it was like decades of coconut pile up.
And like they were just like I don't know not rotten but like decayed what's the expiration date?
I don't know, but I got I'm being serious when I say there was an insane amount of coconuts Just littering the property or if you need to shoot stuff.
luke rudkowski
You don't need to have targets.
ian crossland
You can have coconuts We had chickens but the wild critters kept killing them At least you get four to eight months of coconut unrefrigerated packaged as dried coconut.
tim pool
So we actually, we tried to get up one of the palm trees to get a fresh coconut down and it was really hard.
unidentified
Why did you try that if there was coconuts everywhere?
tim pool
This is like a week.
ian crossland
You get a week?
tim pool
Because we wanted a fresh one from the tree, right?
So we finally ended up getting one down.
I can't remember how.
I think someone climbed the tree and it was just like, it was a pretty crummy coconut.
There's like very little coconut juice in it.
And we were like, man, you go to the store, you get those, those coconuts with the, so full of juice or whatever.
There was, when I lived in New York, there was a guy who just like had a safari costume and he had a machete and he'd pull out a coconut and he'd, he'd spin it while whacking it.
And then he would pour out the coconut juice, scrape it all off into a blender.
And then he would press a sugar cane right there and then blend it up.
And hence you, it was like the healthiest, most delicious thing ever.
luke rudkowski
That's gonna be my goal on what I want to do in my life.
I want to be that coconut dude.
And I'm probably going to be doing some kind of survival class.
I have no idea how to survive in the tropics.
I know how to do like survival trainings in the north, but I'm going to be probably learning survival training in the tropics.
And if you guys know anyone that could teach me, let me know.
tim pool
Hold on, Luke, that's not important.
What's important is that scientists find putting pantyhose on your head makes your mask safer.
After testing seven ways to make masks seal better around the face, researchers found that a pair of hosiery does the trick best.
Yo, they're screwing with us.
At this point, look at this image.
It is obvious they are screwing with us.
They are going to be people who are going to be wearing pantyhose on their face.
luke rudkowski
There's people who are gonna do this.
They're doing a double masking thing.
unidentified
Yeah, they're doing a bit.
luke rudkowski
Yeah.
ian crossland
It obviously works.
It tightens the pole, but so does scotch tape.
I mean, what's the point?
What are they trying to... trying to sell pantyhose?
unidentified
They're literally trying to embarrass you.
I think that's what it is.
seamus coughlin
Like, they want people to be humiliated.
tim pool
This really does look like they're trying to see if they can get people to do it.
Like, there was some scientist and he was like, hey, I bet if we tell people to put panties on their face, they'll do it.
And then they got, like, they're stoned as they're, like, sitting in the lab.
And it's like, dude, I want to write it up, and he's typing it up.
unidentified
No way.
They're not going to fall for it.
tim pool
Dude, tell them you've got to pull it extra tight.
Well, pull it tight, and they're laughing.
And they submit it, and Vice is like, oh, wow.
Oh, and they publish it.
These guys are just high-fiving each other.
unidentified
Yeah!
tim pool
They chest bump, and they're like, we did it!
luke rudkowski
Why is Vice making this an article is the bigger question.
Why do they think it's newsworthy to propagate this kind of information to their audience?
seamus coughlin
Well, because they want to save lives, Luke.
ian crossland
Modus operandi.
tim pool
Mummy.
Look at this one.
It's called Mummy.
lydia smith
Oh my gosh.
tim pool
So they have a bunch of different styles of putting a mask on.
And they have tying the bands.
No hack.
Tape.
Look at that.
Pantyhose.
White.
And pantyhose.
Black.
Dude, this is such- I guess different colored pantyhose do better.
seamus coughlin
This is such a larping.
tim pool
None of them.
Look at the mummy one.
What does that mean?
seamus coughlin
Alright, dude.
tim pool
Mummy.
seamus coughlin
The person who made that graphic does not do any of those things and they don't know anyone else who does either.
ian crossland
What if you saw a mummy guy at the airport?
If you saw somebody like that with their face bandaged like a mummy's face, that'd be so hilarious.
tim pool
Ian, we have space helmets.
unidentified
That's true.
tim pool
So here's the funniest thing though.
So we, I bought these big plastic helmets that they were marketing at the start of the pandemic.
Like, why wear a mask when you can wear this?
And you can't hear someone when they're talking.
A lot of people point out like, what if you sneeze?
Cause it's like a space helmet.
And here's the best part.
You can't wear them on planes anyway.
luke rudkowski
Yeah, they're not they want you wearing a mask because yeah, that's what the rules say and they follow the rules to the T But it is a mask.
tim pool
No rules are very important It has to be a cloth mask So you if you want to wear the space helmet you can literally be wearing a space helmet a hazmat suit and you have to wear a mask underneath And then if I reach in to pull it down and take a sip, I'm like, hey!
seamus coughlin
What if you put the cloth mask, like, over the plastic of his face?
That might work.
tim pool
That's an interesting point, because you'd be like, I'm wearing the mask.
seamus coughlin
Well, it's like, apparently it's plastic that doesn't really do anything, so I don't know.
tim pool
Dude, it's about obedience.
seamus coughlin
Exactly.
tim pool
There was a guy who wore panties on his face, which is a cloth mask, and they kicked him off.
seamus coughlin
This is going to be... Well, they didn't see this article yet.
He's the one who wrote it.
tim pool
Pantyhose.
luke rudkowski
Panties.
seamus coughlin
Oh!
tim pool
Women's underwear.
luke rudkowski
I want to make a crude reference here.
Seamus, get ready.
Cover your ears.
I'm going to make a crude reference.
Make sure your ears are safe.
tim pool
Say, Ian, there's a lady present.
seamus coughlin
Did I call you Ian?
Ian's the one I'm used to saying things that make me uncomfortable.
luke rudkowski
Yeah, and I love you, you know, yeah, they're gonna prepare the people ready.
They're gonna prepare This is preparation for the u.s Diplomats that are going to be going into China who are going to have to be tested in a very specific way that I've been warning about for many specific years what's the Chinese government is bringing back specifically for the Olympics with my hair and Butt swab COVID test.
It's not even swabbing.
It's butt insertion.
unidentified
It's just a medical procedure.
ian crossland
So they don't swipe.
They just go in.
luke rudkowski
They go in.
They don't swipe.
ian crossland
How is that normal?
Is that better than the nose?
I don't get it.
tim pool
People are doing it.
seamus coughlin
That's what's happening in China.
ian crossland
They can't use their hands to resist.
They just hold them down.
luke rudkowski
The US State Department had to send an official notice to China saying, stop doing this to our diplomats.
tim pool
Yes.
luke rudkowski
And now they're bringing it back for the Olympics.
tim pool
I wonder if Fauci and Bill Gates are just, like, taking big bong rips in the back room, laughing, and Bill's like, you should tell them to put pantyhose on next!
unidentified
And Fauci's like, and then we'll tell them to wear two pantyhose!
seamus coughlin
Dude, they're literally Beavis and Butthead.
Hey Bill!
ian crossland
I like that cartoon.
tim pool
That's a cartoon idea.
seamus coughlin
We should do it.
tim pool
Hey Bill!
unidentified
That would be cool.
What?
tim pool
Make them wear... What's next?
luke rudkowski
That's the question.
What are they gonna make you do next?
seamus coughlin
Here's the thing.
It's like gotta start fizzling out, right?
Because infections are going down.
ian crossland
They never did gloves, I'm surprised.
seamus coughlin
I hope I'm right.
Well, I think because cases are going down and they're desperate to search for other stories, the COVID stuff might start to fizzle out and they're just going to try to replace it with a new story.
ian crossland
The COVID stuff, I mean, the actual virus is mutating and now we've got Delta strain or we've got Omicron.
seamus coughlin
Where have you been, Ian?
ian crossland
We've got them all now.
Which is less deadly.
So I think that the whole pandemic thing seems to be quieting down.
And it just feels like it the last couple weeks.
luke rudkowski
Well, the cases are going down dramatically in Canada, in the United States, and there's trends that countries like South Africa are following, and we're following those trends very closely.
And that leaves a lot of room for optimism.
And there's also going to be a lot of people wanting some significant... How do you say this?
Accountability.
seamus coughlin
Revenge?
Reparation?
Retribution?
luke rudkowski
I was going to say retribution, but I didn't want to go there.
But there's going to be a lot of people who are going to want to hold the government officials that locked them up accountable for their crimes against them.
seamus coughlin
Yeah.
I mean, people are going to be very upset.
People are going to be very upset about it, but that's why the media is going to do everything they can to just try to talk about something else.
Of course, they're not going to go like, well, you know, cases are down.
Things are okay.
You can go back to normal life.
They're literally just going to stop talking.
luke rudkowski
Well, they're going to need to shock the general public with something dramatic to get us away from paying attention to the reality of the larger circumstances that are going to be unfolding within the next few weeks.
ian crossland
You think they'll do a false flag in Ukraine?
luke rudkowski
Well, this is what the U.S.
State Department is saying that Russia is going to do.
There was a press conference by the State Department.
They were questioned by a journalist specifically asked about this because the State Department came and said that they were going to do a false flag.
And the journalist was like, this is like Alex Jones stuff that you're talking about.
And the State Department couldn't answer the question of any kind of legitimate evidence presented accusing Russia of Are they going to do a false false flag where they have an American do some crime and they're like, that was a Russian dressed as an American.
seamus coughlin
Oh my goodness.
luke rudkowski
Possibly.
seamus coughlin
So many levels.
luke rudkowski
Possibly.
There's many different possibilities here, but wars are started under many times historically through false flag operations.
ian crossland
That's what happens.
tim pool
Golf of Tonkin.
luke rudkowski
Historically.
Because you can't just preemptively attack someone and just say, we just needed to do so.
You need an excuse for the general public to go along with it.
You need an excuse to build up the morale of the soldiers, to get them to go out there and to commit some of the most heinous atrocities against other human beings.
You need a motivation factor.
So there's a big possibility of this.
What's that?
tim pool
Cass's Belly.
It's an actor's situation provoking or justifying war.
So there's gotta be something for it.
luke rudkowski
Absolutely.
ian crossland
Like your great-great-grandfather owned that land and now you have a right to it.
Could be that.
tim pool
Typically no.
It's gotta be a grievance.
So it's like...
It's really funny, too, because often in justifying a war, it's to, like, convince other people that, you know, you're on the right side or whatever, so they side with you.
Otherwise, it would just be like, I'm gonna win the war and declare it, so I'll, you know, whatever.
That's how it used to be.
It's like, we know we're gonna win, so we go to war.
Now with the international stage, it's like, okay, we'll go to war, but we need to make sure everyone thinks We are the good guys.
luke rudkowski
Yeah, that's why you first needed information war before you actually have a hot war.
You need the build-up, you need the PR, you need to convince people, because when it comes to war, when it comes to killing another fellow human being, you really have to sell this idea as a life-and-death situation.
And what better way than to false flag an event to start this, because no one wants war.
The bankers, the corporate heads, the billionaires, they want wars, and they will stop at nothing at getting it.
ian crossland
If country leaders got together, like Biden, Putin, Xi, all these leaders, that they could do something that would be more powerful than global banking?
luke rudkowski
I don't know about that.
I was thinking you were going to say they were all going to be dosed by DMT.
And then maybe there's a potential for doing this.
I thought you were going there for sure.
But that's a very hypothetical question that I don't have the answers to.
I wish I did.
ian crossland
I wonder where the power lies.
I usually think it lies in the military, but like you're saying, information and economics.
tim pool
Someone superchatted Gulf of Honkin.
unidentified
Oh my god!
Love it.
tim pool
Slam dunk.
That's a good... The Gulf of Tonkin is an excellent example for anybody who doesn't believe in false flags.
They tell you you're crazy and Alex Jones.
Be like, what are you talking about?
Gulf of Tonkin's on Wikipedia.
It's like the Americans claimed they got attacked justifying entering a war.
luke rudkowski
war even Germany's invasion of Poland there was an attack on a radio station
that was questioned as there was prisoners that were dressed up in German
uniforms and Polish uniforms there was allegedly a skirmish where Poland
attacked Germany first operation Northwood's yeah there's there's so many
instances even you know the sinking of the there's questions about the
Lusitania the Spanish-American War there's there's so many of these
incidences that of course it's it's it's more common than uncommon and we should
always be wary of them especially with such a tense situation unfolding right
now between the United States and Russia With the military-industrial complex and the corporate media pushing everything towards a direction that's going to mean some kind of war in Ukraine, which is going to be disastrous.
tim pool
They need it.
I want to make two very important points before we go to Super Chats.
The democratic establishment is in such dire straits, they need a conflict.
War usually does really well for leaders.
I don't know if it'll work this time around because we've got the internet, but the other thing you need to understand is Joe Biden should already be campaigning and fundraising.
Donald Trump already is.
Now, not full scale, but the fact that there's not even any kind of hints of reelection work on Joe Biden's part leads me to believe there's, there's, we're starting to see the beginning of evidence he's not going to be running for 2024.
If it's true, he's saying he's gonna, right?
But come on, look at the guy.
If it's true that Biden is not running, we would probably know within the next four months, because the Democrats need to get people fundraising for primary season.
And normally with an incumbent president, they'd be gearing up saying, support us, But Joe Biden's not doing it yet.
We'll see.
Just so you know, though, we should know very, very soon.
luke rudkowski
Biden's inviting Russia to invade Ukraine with his statements and comments on that situation, which is only getting more tense with the United States shipping in more weapons, sending in more troops.
It's crazy.

It sounds like a we'll ride and burn the town down unless you pay us sort of thing.
unidentified
Yep.
But they still did that.
tim pool
They still did it.
Maybe they stopped and they started getting some of that money though.
Alright, we got Filthy Pete says I hate to be the energy killer, but I believe the trucker convoy is another government-planned psyop.
Probably to scapegoat the truckers and blame them for the massive supply shortages we are about to see.
Maybe, but I think we already had supply shortages before the trucker convoy anyway.
So, you know, maybe, maybe.
luke rudkowski
And plus the government is implementing a policy that will only exacerbate the global supply chain problem even that much worse.
They're responding and protesting a policy that would open up the global supply chain.
I actually did a video about this because there are elements of this, especially with allegedly Elon Musk supporting the truckers, especially with him trying to bring autonomous trucks, especially with him, you know, Being a billionaire, that leads to a lot of very serious questions, especially with the possibility of global supply chains being interrupted even more.
ian crossland
Yeah, if you had as autonomous trucks and you controlled the fleet, you could just block traffic at will.
luke rudkowski
But I think by and large, the movement is a net positive.
tim pool
Seamus looks defeated right now.
unidentified
I look at someone and they point, they're right.
seamus coughlin
That would have been a good joke.
It happens every now and again.
tim pool
There's a super chat from James Nelson.
Uh, Seamus put out a video, a cartoon on Freedom Tunes, where Trudeau is trying- Don't spoil the whole thing.
seamus coughlin
You guys should check it out.
If you read- but read the comment.
unidentified
Tim, what happened?
luke rudkowski
Just tell me.
tim pool
It's just- it's- what I was gonna say is- Why don't you watch it, Luke?
unidentified
It's a minute.
Okay?
luke rudkowski
It's Trudeau and Truckers.
tim pool
It's Trudeau and he's trying to talk.
Truckers.
seamus coughlin
Trudeau and there's Truckers.
tim pool
James Ellison says, Shamus, you missed a huge joke.
When the trucks fly by, the diesel smoke should have left a blackface residue on Justin Trudeau.
seamus coughlin
Well, James, I actually find that very offensive.
I thought of that joke, but I said, I'm going to be bigger than that.
tim pool
You missed it!
You know what?
seamus coughlin
It's a good bit.
unidentified
I'll admit it.
seamus coughlin
Every now and again, this happens.
tim pool
Delete the video, re-upload it.
seamus coughlin
The convo is going to be going on for a while.
You make a cartoon a week, sometimes two, have a great team helping you.
But every now and again, sometimes something slips through the cracks.
But I appreciate that.
I'm kind of kicking myself.
tim pool
Just make four or five more.
seamus coughlin
I just got to make a couple more.
Look, there will be plenty of... I had Trudeau do green face in another video.
unidentified
You guys can check that out.
Joe Biden meets aliens.
tim pool
Germanic Bear says, since Luke is basically the guest, can you tell us more about his family from Poland?
He alludes to it very often.
It sounds like they are fascinating people worth talking about.
luke rudkowski
Absolutely.
My father has an incredible story.
My mother is a solid rock, a hardcore Polish mom that has all the basic stereotypes.
And, you know, my grandparents have even crazier stories, especially when it comes to It comes to surviving World War II, communism, the Soviet Union.
There's such crazy, insane stories of survival.
I am extremely lucky to be alive.
I am extremely lucky to be here since my bloodline, my family before me, came very close to losing it all on many occasions because of big governments, totalitarianism, communism, and fascism.
And my people have always been pushing against centralization for a very long time historically.
Poland has existed and hasn't existed.
My family's history has been wiped out before World War II because of, you know, what the Soviet Union and what Germany did, essentially exterminating a lot of, not only my family members, but a lot of our history that has stopped there, sadly.
So I only know up until then.
Even up till then it's absolutely crazy and mind-boggling to hear the stories of my grandmother talking about how she was literally on a train to Stutthof concentration camps and was luckily saved and like how the Russians came in and screwed everyone and enslaved everyone and started torturing people.
My uncle who was literally tortured by The Gestapo police officers and the deep state cops that were in Poland at the time.
So there's such an incredible history.
I should probably do a video about this.
Just going over my lineage of family members that are absolutely hardcore anti-statists.
My grandma being the most hardcore anti-statist of them all.
tim pool
You know what we need?
We need an anime origin story for Luke.
And it'll be like, you know, young seven-year-old Luke and his dad's, like, smoking a cigarette and he's like, Luke, you must always resist.
unidentified
It's gotta be like Luke's, like, awesome family going through all these insane things, but then, like, somehow they end up with this.
Yeah, it should start off with Luke firing this.
luke rudkowski
That's a low blow.
ian crossland
With Luke firing the rocket launcher and then the explosion of the smoke appears like his childhood.
It's like him as a kid with his dad talking.
luke rudkowski
Well, I'm nothing compared to what my father went through.
He was a part of the Solidarity Movement.
He was a major component of the movement to bring freedom into Poland and to fight communism.
My grandmother, again, also a big proponent of fighting communism, faced being sent to jail on many occasions.
We had our house raided by the police.
There's so many crazy stories, it's mind-boggling.
tim pool
Luke is third-generation anti-communist.
ian crossland
Were they all out of the Soviet Union when it fell?
By the time it fell?
Your family, were they still living there?
luke rudkowski
Well, some of them died.
Some of them got, you know, of course, taken out.
But I don't hold a candle to anything my family and my forebearers went through before me.
I have it extremely lucky.
I'm extremely privileged comparatively to what they had to go through.
I mean, they were essentially even starved in some instances because of the lack of food under communism.
And we are incredibly lucky, extremely privileged, and we should always remember that every single day.
And I always remember my family, what they went through when it comes to my job and my reporting.
tim pool
All right.
Alex says, so is Crenshaw going to reschedule?
Yes.
They just had a vote.
unidentified
He has.
tim pool
Yeah, he's rescheduled.
Can we mention the Marjorie Taylor Greene thing?
I won't say the exact date.
Yeah.
So Marjorie Taylor Greene and Thomas Massey, right?
lydia smith
Yep.
I believe so.
tim pool
We won't say the exact date, because then when they cancel, like... Inevitable.
Well, I mean, especially with people who are in Congress, because a vote may come up.
But we're planning on having Marjorie Taylor Greene and Thomas Massian at the same time to talk about what's going on in Congress.
But thank our lucky stars, Luke is leaving.
luke rudkowski
Before that... I would have loved to talk to Krenshaw.
I mean, I flew here just to talk to him.
I thought I would have been in an incredible conversation.
tim pool
I don't want to make it seem like you flew here just for that.
Before Luke left, We had discussed with Dan Crenshaw coming on the show, and so I told Luke, hey, like, you know, don't leave yet, Dan's gonna come on the show, but Luke was like, we've already scheduled it, and I was like, well, make sure you come back, you know, around then.
So, it was always the plan to have Luke on the show when Dan came, you know, because what I don't want to do is make it seem like we're gonna bring people on because someone's coming.
I want to give everybody a fair shake at having their chance to come here and speak their mind, especially Dan, because a lot of people are critical of him, you know?
luke rudkowski
Absolutely, and it would have been an incredible conversation that could have gone either ways, but I think it would have been positive for everyone involved.
tim pool
You just gotta stay until next week?
Just gotta stay until next week.
seamus coughlin
I don't smell that bad.
You can stick around for a week.
luke rudkowski
I don't know.
It smells like potatoes and whiskey.
seamus coughlin
First of all, that sounds amazing.
tim pool
Well, aside from Crenshaw, Daniel says Jordan Peterson is stateside again and he plans to have him on.
Is he still in the U.S.? ?
seamus coughlin
Yes, I am.
tim pool
Yeah, I think so.
seamus coughlin
You should bring him on.
Bring Jordan on.
ian crossland
I'd love to.
I hit him up a couple weeks ago, but I don't know if he saw my tweet or anything.
Jordan!
Or Mikayla.
I know Mikayla does a lot of his booking.
I would love to get Jordan in here while he's around.
unidentified
Oh, man.
tim pool
That'd be great.
ian crossland
Yeah.
tim pool
Raymond G. Stanley Jr.
says, OMG, is that Luke Rydkowski on the show?
How did you manage that?
He's so dreamy.
Luke, if there was to be change, who would be or is that change?
luke rudkowski
You and the ideas and principles of decentralization and taking responsibility for yourself and not depending on anyone else, not giving up your power as a human being to anyone else.
And understanding that your life has value, you have power, dignity, respect, and the most amazing thing in your existence, the ability to critically think, analyze information, and then make the right decisions for yourself as an individual.
That right there is some of the best things that I have the most absolute hope in, the individual deciding what's right for themselves.
ian crossland
Did you feel like Obama ripped you off when he did the Yes We Can movement?
unidentified
Absolutely.
ian crossland
It was those three syllables.
luke rudkowski
And then people conflated.
People thought we were related to Barack Obama when we had We Are Changed way before he did.
lydia smith
Oh, poor Luke.
luke rudkowski
And it was frustrating for a bit because everyone thinks it's like a... That's what I thought when I met you.
seamus coughlin
I was like, this guy's related to Obama.
luke rudkowski
Yeah, definitely.
You have great perception there, Seamus.
seamus coughlin
They probably ripped you off.
tim pool
Alright, AWM Fishing and Gaming says I just post my college degree when someone belittles someone for being uneducated because they didn't follow the state propaganda.
ian crossland
Aha!
tim pool
Yep, I know some people that will remain unnamed.
They're just like, well, I'm in Mensa.
It's like, oh, congratulations, you solved puzzles.
You're very smart.
seamus coughlin
So you're paying people money to tell you how smart you are?
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
How smart is that?
lydia smith
That's pretty smart.
unidentified
Most embarrassing.
tim pool
I'll tell you this.
Here's what we'll do.
Members of Tidcast are all really smart.
You have to be smart.
And so only the smart people are allowed to be members of TimCast.com.
That's right.
And we'll send you an email that says you're very smart for giving us your money.
unidentified
You are very smart.
lydia smith
You are very smart.
tim pool
I'm kidding.
ian crossland
When you talk about smart, is it like intelligence and emotions are both like 50-50 part of being smart?
Because I have an issue with that word smart.
It's kind of vague.
I wonder if it's like a combination.
Intelligence, like we were saying earlier, you can be intelligent and do horribly dumb things.
unidentified
Yeah.
tim pool
Well, there's different kinds of intelligence.
You know, that's why different people learn in different ways.
Some people could have really good memories, but really bad comprehension.
But let's read some more.
All right.
TheBrosDurham says, you guys always forget the most important trade, the machinist.
unidentified
Oh, yes.
tim pool
The machinist.
Machinists are very important.
lydia smith
Indeed they are.
tim pool
Kit M says everybody is a genius, but if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.
unidentified
Well, fish are stupid.
ian crossland
That is an Einstein quote.
unidentified
Actually, fish are objectively dumb.
tim pool
Yo, chickens are dumb.
unidentified
Really dumb.
tim pool
They're so dumb.
ian crossland
Unless you need someone to find bugs for you.
tim pool
But they are noble.
Yeah, there's a video going viral on Reddit of I think it's like a hawk attacking a chicken.
I saw that one.
And then the rooster runs out and attacks it and goes nuts.
lydia smith
Heroic.
tim pool
Yeah, roosters will sacrifice their lives to save the hens.
unidentified
Roosters are not like very nice to the hens, but they will stand up for them.
tim pool
It's kind of crazy because roosters in many ways are like more likely to be a better man than a human.
Like there are a lot of guys that will like run away and leave their girl in danger, but roosters won't.
unidentified
Nope.
tim pool
They'll be like, I will fight that bear!
And then they'll just get mauled.
unidentified
A lot of toxic masculinity.
tim pool
Toxic rooster masculinity, man.
unidentified
By the way, I did not mean to make fun of that super chatter.
There's an interesting thing about that quote.
seamus coughlin
However, I would disagree with the idea that everyone's a genius, because then the word loses meaning.
ian crossland
I think it's an Einstein.
I'm pretty sure that's an Einstein quote.
unidentified
Well, maybe he wasn't such a genius.
ian crossland
He was made to feel stupid in school.
tim pool
It's a famous quote.
unidentified
No, no, no, I've heard it.
seamus coughlin
I get what they're saying, but I wouldn't say everybody's a genius.
tim pool
All right, Grizzlab says, Hey Tim, a Canadian trucker here.
I can explain trucking industry and what Trudeau did to our economy on your show, if you allow me.
Well, it's always difficult to bring people from Canada, but you can always send a shout out to what?
spintheufo at gmail.com?
lydia smith
That's right.
tim pool
You will check those?
lydia smith
Yep.
tim pool
And we will talk.
I think it'd actually be really great.
We've had a bunch of recommendations for truckers and people involved.
I have a friend who's a trucker.
We should try and figure that out.
That'd be cool, actually.
No, I don't.
I don't consider those to be legitimate baptisms.
some churches are on metaverse. I'm curious what you think of this given your views on how church
affects sense of community. Some are even performing baptisms in virtual water. Do you consider these
unidentified
baptisms legitimate? No, I don't. I don't consider those to be legitimate baptisms. I'm no theologian,
seamus coughlin
but I understand. So I know that the very least, like with, with confession, for example,
if you want to be absolved, you have to be like in person with the priest.
You can't do that virtually.
I think it's good for people to build a faith community over the internet.
I think it's really great to stay in contact with like-minded people, especially if there aren't folks around you who share your values.
But I don't believe that sacraments could be administered digitally.
I can double check on that, but I'm pretty sure.
Again, no theologian here.
tim pool
Shiloh Cruz says, do you remember when BLM insisted that it's okay to destroy Jesus statues and portraits because Jesus was black?
How does that line up with Whoopi's belief that Nazi Germany was whites versus whites?
You remember that?
When they were, when Black Lives Matter was desecrating religious symbols?
unidentified
Yes, I do.
tim pool
And then they tried claiming all these people were different races or whatever.
The funny thing about it is that everybody knows Jesus was Japanese.
Of course, yeah.
I remember that.
You probably know this.
You can find depictions of Jesus among all many cultures.
seamus coughlin
Well, and that's actually very important.
The Catholic Church, and I would say Christianity in general, but I would say particularly the Catholic Church, because that's the tradition I'm most familiar with, has always been completely fine and even encouraging of people depicting Christ to look as if they are part of the same ethnic group that that person is.
Because Christ is the visible face of the Invisible Father, And to put so much emphasis on his ethnicity that you would say you can't envision him as looking as if he's from the same group you are is ridiculous.
tim pool
It's so progressive.
ian crossland
I've heard theories.
tim pool
It is like, you know, it's diversity or whatever, but they don't like it.
ian crossland
The theories that Jesus is like an idea from like the sun god from Egypt.
seamus coughlin
I've heard wild theories that it's more of just this caricature that people have like bestowed a You guys should do, uh... I've heard that, but that's, yeah, that's all, the Egyptology stuff is, like, really, they'll say things like, oh, he's based on the sun god, that's why we call him the son of god, but in the ancient Egyptian language, the word for, like, the sun is not the same as the word for, uh, the male child, so, like, it's, it's really based on, it's based on English puns, it's really not a legitimate theory.
tim pool
But you guys should have a long conversation.
seamus coughlin
I think, Ian, I think we should, actually, I would be very interested in that.
ian crossland
I feel like I wouldn't be able to bring enough to the convo, but if, I trust you.
If you think we could do it and it would be entertaining, I'm 100%.
Otherwise, a third person that's like an expert in some way.
tim pool
What works is you'll be the hippie DMT guy.
ian crossland
Just ask a bunch of questions.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, you just play devil's advocate, honestly.
That's another fun thing too.
Just like poke and prod me.
It's difficult to answer questions sometimes.
Yeah, I knew you were going to make some dirty jokes.
tim pool
You sick man.
seamus coughlin
But yeah, no, I mean, like, like, just, I think that would be interesting.
We just sit down, you ask questions, challenge my arguments.
I'd enjoy that.
tim pool
This is the funny thing about when I see these, like, liberal types on Facebook posting pictures of a Middle Eastern Jesus and they're like, Hey Christians, this is what Jesus looked like.
And I'm like, I don't think they've ever actually talked to a Christian person.
Yeah.
And if you, so what I always do is I, you Google search and there's Japanese portraits of a Japanese Jesus.
And so I copy that and just paste it and say, you're wrong, Jesus is Japanese.
And I do that basically because of what you said, that different cultures depict him as, you know, their ethnicity.
But these people don't know anything about the belief.
But let's read some more Super Chats.
Alright, The Sinister Sibling says, in terms of conspiracies, here's one.
I think the D-Glock, a World War II German attempt at an anti-gravity craft that, according to scientists, disappeared in front of them, is the reason for the UFO sightings.
So it's not aliens, but an out-of-control German time machine.
lydia smith
Oh, okay.
tim pool
That sounds like a great movie idea!
ian crossland
How do you spell that, D-Glock?
tim pool
I will fund that movie.
unidentified
That sounds great.
ian crossland
How do you spell D-Glock, that thing you were saying?
tim pool
D-Glock.
D-Glock.
ian crossland
D-E-G-L-O-C-K-E.
tim pool
D-I-E.
G-L-O-C-K-E.
ian crossland
Thank you.
luke rudkowski
The Germans were working on some pretty crazy stuff.
unidentified
Yeah.
luke rudkowski
I wouldn't be surprised if there was some element of that to be verifiable.
tim pool
There was a funny... Oh, the bell!
Okay, this is... Oh, yeah, that thing.
ian crossland
Deep block is the bell.
I've heard of this, this floating bell thing.
And maybe it's spinning super fast, so it reduces vertical lag, I guess you could call it.
And it can float, sort of.
If it's spinning fast enough, I think that's the idea.
If you hit it with electrical current and it's spinning super fast.
tim pool
Corey G says, Tim got it right.
The average person is basically a child.
People stopped growing up because good times make soft men.
You know, and it really is true.
I think you look at, we'll use Luke as a really good example.
Luke's family history made one heck of a hard man.
Strong man, that's probably the right way to put it.
Right, Luke?
luke rudkowski
I still don't hold a candle to what my family went through.
tim pool
No, but I mean, like, especially your dad, right?
luke rudkowski
Yeah, yeah.
tim pool
He went through all this hardship.
You grew up seeing that.
And, you know, you guys fled.
You were born into a Soviet satellite state.
Your family flees.
You come to the United States.
So you knew what that hardship was.
And that seed planted in you allows you to grow up and do the work you're doing now.
luke rudkowski
And appreciate what opportunities we have here in this country, which of course we didn't have and still in some elements don't have in Poland, even though Poland's doing really well right now comparatively to the rest of Europe.
But still, comparatively in America, we are extremely privileged, extremely lucky, and any opportunity you have, you have to take, especially when you look at it from an international perspective, understanding how the world really is.
tim pool
All right, Dr. Marcelo Santos says, Brazilian here.
Bolsonaro is freedom-loving, fighting against socialism and narco-traffic in Brazil and South America.
Google El Pollo.
The chicken?
El Pollo Loco.
Remember when Bolsonaro got, they tried to kill him, they knifed him in the gut?
unidentified
No.
Yeah.
ian crossland
Was that recent?
tim pool
No, this was years ago.
He was at a rally and they were holding him up and some guy just plunged a knife into him.
unidentified
He's hard.
tim pool
That's crazy, man.
unidentified
And they were like, fascist me.
tim pool
People are crazy.
lydia smith
That's what he screamed, yes.
unidentified
Yeah, I did.
I did.
tim pool
He was asking for it.
luke rudkowski
Luke broke the science. Yeah, he did. He was asking for it.
tim pool
Makisma Joe Makismo Joe says we need the 50 BMG because we have to push for autonomous
cars and trucks that could one day decide to initiate carmageddon. It's that simple.
When the robots take over a shotgun won't stop them. Yeah, I saw that article said Optimus
ian crossland
Prime was not at the at the convoy.
lydia smith
Oh, yeah.
luke rudkowski
Was that fact checked?
unidentified
His silence, his silence has been deafening.
lydia smith
That's right.
tim pool
That's true.
OK.
I don't know if I can read this person's name, but Cooter says Johnny.
That's not the full name.
Johnny Knoxville has had a cannon since Jackass 2.
Man, Joe Biden, he's got to watch Jackass.
You know, you can go you can go online, just buy cannons.
ian crossland
There's a new Jackass coming out.
tim pool
All right.
Immortal Sin Band says, Tim would love your feedback and anyone else who wants to check it out of our heavy metal cover of Will of the People.
It's the newest lyric video on our Immortal Sin Band channel.
Also on Spotify, Apple, Amazon, Deezer, etc.
Oh, really, really cool.
I appreciate and encourage people to cover the song.
luke rudkowski
So cool.
tim pool
That'd be really awesome.
Well, you looked at that video game, remember?
ian crossland
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, I didn't follow through.
tim pool
Remind me after the show, because I want to take a look at that.
And we'll take a look at your Heavy Metal cover.
And then if you go to my Instagram, one of the posts, it shows like a computer screen.
We're working on what is essentially a sequel to Will of the People.
It's like not really a sequel, but it's in the same universe.
The song is based and it's called Pain.
And we've got Pete Parada, formerly of The Offspring, who's done the drums for it.
We've got A rough mix so far, and it just sounds so good.
I'm so excited.
ian crossland
Yo, Pete, you rock.
tim pool
It's so good.
And Pete posted a video on his Instagram of how he did the drums, and it's like three different drum tracks.
He's playing the drums in different ways at the same time.
Is that pain?
ian crossland
For pain?
tim pool
Yeah.
ian crossland
Yeah, dude.
tim pool
And Carter sent me the latest mix.
ian crossland
Yeah, me too.
tim pool
And I'm just like, the song's good enough.
It doesn't need vocals or anything else.
It's just good enough already.
But someone told me it sounds like a song from a Tony Hawk pro skater game.
Yeah.
They're like, it sounds like, you know, Tony Hawk Pro Skater music.
And I'm like, all right, cool.
lydia smith
That's awesome.
unidentified
All right.
tim pool
Tina Collette says, I live in Wyoming.
We lived in a community a few years ago that had a cannon.
They would fire it a couple of times a year.
I can guarantee there are several times the number of guns to the population and no gun crime.
The funny thing is, Most of the weapons from back then aren't regulated firearms.
You can, you can like, you have to muzzle load them.
They're not banned.
They never were.
They're not now.
So Joe Biden coming out and being like, you can't have a cannon.
It's like, you can, you could, you still can.
You probably always can because it's archaic technology.
But people had warships back then.
I'm tired of the lies, dude.
That's why I'm saying like, the second amendment guarantees my right to own nuclear warheads.
seamus coughlin
So here's the question, Tim.
Do you think, I mean, some of them I'm sure are lying, but do you think they're lying en masse, or do you think a lot of them just don't know anything and they assume... They're NPCs.
Well, it sounds right to say that you can't own a cannon, so I'll just say it even though I've never looked into it.
Yeah.
tim pool
It just sounds right.
seamus coughlin
Yeah.
tim pool
You can't own a cannon.
Yes, I can.
You can't own a tank.
Yes, you can.
There's websites where you can buy tanks.
Vice did it.
I think BuzzFeed did it and Vice did an article on it where they were like, here's a guy who bought a tank and like drives it around.
We saw I saw a guy in West Virginia who had a Jeep mounted 50 BMG on it.
Like you can have these things.
It's not easy.
They're making it harder and harder and harder, especially with the NFA, but you can have these things.
ian crossland
Cannon's a weird one because it's useless.
Relatively.
You can't conceal it.
They're hard to aim.
I mean, they were good when you were finding boats that move really slow.
seamus coughlin
You're going to think a cannon's useless until someone points one at you.
unidentified
That's a good point.
ian crossland
I'm into the talking about should we legally be allowed to have nuclear bombs.
I don't know.
tim pool
We should.
ian crossland
I don't think we can have that conversation in five minutes.
lydia smith
Civilians should be able to own anything a soldier can own.
tim pool
Yep.
lydia smith
That's a good rule of thumb.
tim pool
Alright.
ian crossland
I don't think the soldiers can own those either.
The only president has access to that stuff.
tim pool
Joshua Thomas says, as a diesel mechanic for a trucking company that does a lot of grocery shipping, I am ecstatic for some of these truckers also being in Las Vegas.
I don't know how many people know that this city would not exist without them.
Vegas is being terraformed.
You know this?
So what's happening is, this is an amazing story.
Last time I was in Vegas, I noticed there were a lot more clouds.
So I went to Vegas in like 2012, and then it came like five years later, and I was like, there's like a lot of clouds up there.
And I asked people, it wasn't super cloudy, there was just some clouds.
And they said what happens is, people will get on planes, They'll fly to Vegas, and they will do their dirty business.
The planes will unload all of that waste in Las Vegas Airport, which goes into the sewer systems out there, which brings moisture and water into Vegas, which then evaporates, goes into the atmosphere.
Isn't that crazy?
unidentified
That is pretty crazy.

And then they also, when they ship in water and drinks, people drink it there, use the bathroom there.
They're effectively moving massive amounts of water into the desert and making the air bring moisture in, which is, and they're also making lawns for people's houses, which then retain moisture.
So they're basically turned, they're de-deserting Vegas.
luke rudkowski
It's crazy.
China's doing that too.
tim pool
But they're doing it like more methodically, you know?
All right, let's grab just, like, one more Super Chat.
David Munoz says, My theory on Great Pyramid construction.
Sound waves were used to capture a block and move it in place with relative ease.
We were able to do it now with small objects.
Sound waves create a bubble.
I got bad news for the ancient aliens people and for theories like that.
It's actually not complicated to have built the pyramid.
In fact, the pyramid is one of the easiest structures to build when you have limited technology, because it's literally just stacking the blocks up.
I think the basic understanding is that all they did was they literally just pushed blocks across thin layers of sand, which creates, you know, reduces the friction.
And then they had people move them up at the center of it and slowly place them piece by piece.
ian crossland
In water.
unidentified
They were in little rivers.
seamus coughlin
Yeah, they poured water.
I've also heard that they poured water in front of them so that it would be easier for them to slide across the sand, yeah.
ian crossland
And then they would float the blocks in water and you'd be able to spin the block.
unidentified
Float?
ian crossland
Yeah, along the outside of the pyramid.
This is one thing I've seen is that there is a corridor of water that went up around the outside of the pyramid.
And so they would literally, and then they would, there's a word for what these things are.
You shut it off at one point so the water can't go any further back down.
And then the valve you get the block up.
Now there's a specific word in the shop.
But I see it moves upward and then they can spin the block around and carve it on all four sides.
And then they'd be covered.
So from the sun and they would keep them cool being in the water and working in the water all day.
seamus coughlin
Yeah.
tim pool
So there's there's a dude who talks about like the ancient Mayan structures and stuff.
And he was like, it's actually really easy to move multi ton blocks.
And he was like, all you do is you dig a hole on one side of it, and then it flips over and moves.
It's actually really simple.
seamus coughlin
But who gave them the shovels, Tim?
tim pool
Oh, you're right.
unidentified
Aliens?
That's right.
tim pool
No, you see, what it was was that one day, humans had never dug a hole in their lives until one man, they called him Promethean, saw a dog Using his paw, you know, and he was like, he looked at his hands and he went, and then he stuck his hand in the dirt and moved the dirt.
seamus coughlin
He saw a dog digging in front of a large block of wood that then came and crushed the dog.
tim pool

And Seamus, even though it's really fun to easily poke at your readily available buttons, I think you do a great job, and I think you are not that bad.
tim pool
That was the best joke so far.
seamus coughlin
Do you ever notice it's Tim pitting us against each other?
luke rudkowski
I know, it's a conspiracy.
He's the Bill Gates, we're the peasants here, and we're being easily manipulated and played here.
But I have fun, but in all seriousness, you do a great job, and I appreciate it.
seamus coughlin
Likewise, much appreciated, man.
This is what the establishment fears.
luke rudkowski
That's what Tim fears.
seamus coughlin
That's what Tim fears.
luke rudkowski
No, Shamus and Luke can't team up.
seamus coughlin
But no, I mean, I feel the same way.
We poke fun at each other.
We're mutual fans.
Luke has sort of left the show, and I've been keeping his seat warm doing the show.
And there are sometimes fans are like, oh, we miss Luke, or sometimes fans are like, oh, we love Shamus.
But I think it should be known that we really are fans of one another.
tim pool
It was actually funny, the day, like the last day Luke was here, Right when he walked out the door when the show ended, we're like, alright, see you later, Luke.
As soon as he did, all of a sudden I turn around and Seamus is literally an inch from my face and he's like, hey, Tim, can I be on the show?
unidentified
No, no, no, no, no.
seamus coughlin
I was in Luke's chair with my feet up on the table.
That's right.
But no.
So thank you very much for that.
And again, it's mutual.

ian crossland
It was really fun.
It was fun watching you guys go at it.
I like sitting across the table from you.
I noticed in the old studio, me and Tim sat across from each other, and it was real adversarial.
We'd constantly be going at it.
Because when you're directly across from someone, that energy's just there.
tim pool
Whenever Ian would talk, I'd be shaking my fist.
seamus coughlin
I've seen him do that now.
I see Tim do that now.
tim pool
We're throwing stuff at each other when the camera's not on.
ian crossland
