Joe Biden has cancer. | ||
That's not an exaggeration. | ||
Well, he had the cancer removed. | ||
He's probably got more. | ||
I don't know. | ||
But Joe Biden had skin cancer removed from his chest. | ||
And I feel like the media is going to come out now and go, oh, it's no big deal. | ||
No, it's just it's basal cell carcinoma. | ||
It's of the skin cancers. | ||
One of the most common. | ||
And he cut them off, you know, they've been removed. | ||
They're not, it's typically not fatal, but it can severely disfigure you. | ||
And so, let's just put it simply, Biden has had his cancer removed. | ||
The crazy thing about it is, last year, Biden said he had cancer. | ||
And then the media immediately came in to say, no, no, no, no, no, no, he misspoke. | ||
He meant to say he had cancer. | ||
Because before he was president, he also had skin cancer removed, so it's like, alright. | ||
He's got plates in his brain, he can't talk straight, he's got cancer. | ||
Yeah, okay, you know, whatever, I guess. | ||
In other news, apparently Andrew Tate has cancer. | ||
So, that kind of sucks. | ||
You know, cancer's no joke. | ||
I feel bad. | ||
I'm not here to rag on Biden for having cancer, but I think it's an important thing to talk about. | ||
And Andrew Tate apparently has lung cancer, which is much more serious. | ||
So we'll get into all of that. | ||
And we got some cultural stories, too, of just about marriage and family, things that I think are really interesting. | ||
And a woman who had a bunch of cats was being evicted from her home, so she burned her home to the ground with her and the cats in it. | ||
And I'm just thinking, like, this is your future. | ||
Get married now, before it's too late. | ||
And I'm only half kidding! | ||
We'll talk about that. | ||

|
Hello. | |
Hi, thanks for having me. | ||
Yeah, who are you? | ||
unidentified
|
What do you do? | |
Not much. | ||
No, I'm kidding. | ||
I'm a reporter for the Daily Caller. | ||
I have my own show, Reaction, with Chrissy Clark, obviously. | ||
And then I just put out a new documentary called Damage, the Transing of America's Kids, which talks a lot about detransitioners and the medicalization that a lot of them underwent. | ||
Right on. | ||
Well, thanks for hanging out. | ||
This should be fun. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, it will be. | |
We got Elad hanging out. | ||
Hey, everybody. | ||
What's up? | ||
Tim, thanks for having me on. | ||
I am Elad Eliyahu, a reporter here for TimCast News. | ||
What's happening, Phil? | ||
Hi everybody, I am Phil Labonte, lead vocalist for All That Remains, anti-communist and counter-revolutionary. | ||
And I'm Ian Crossland, I'm wild and crazy and freakish, all these things. | ||
Your microphone, you can tilt it towards your face and then when you move around you can carry it with you. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, that's more comfortable. | |
Hi everyone, and we also have Kellen slaying it. | ||
unidentified
|
That's right. | |
I'm back. | ||
Happy Friday, everyone. | ||
Fridays are always the best days, in my opinion. | ||
So let's get into it. | ||
This morning, I interviewed Pete Parata, formerly of The Offspring, over at YouTube.com slash Timcast for the Culture War podcast episode two. | ||
And it went up late. | ||
It went up around 2.30 because our internet completely went out. | ||
That's what happens when you're in the middle of nowhere and all of our backups were failing. | ||
So it actually took like an hour to upload. | ||
But it went up and it's really interesting. | ||
Pete Pirata, of course, was replaced in the band, The Offspring, after 14 years, because his doctor said, | ||
hey, we recommend you do not get the vaccine due to complications related to Guillain-Barre syndrome. | ||
And he went, oh, okay, all right. | ||
And he went to the band and said, hey guys, I don't know if I can do this. | ||
The doctor says no, and they were like, get out. | ||
So it's a bit more complicated than that, but we talked for a couple hours about this | ||
and so much more. | ||
It was a really interesting conversation. | ||
So if you're interested to hear about that behind the scenes, | ||
there's also some really cool insights into what it's like to be in a internationally touring band | ||
when COVID happened and all of a sudden you're like in some foreign country and they're like, | ||
hey, everything's locking down. | ||
You better get out quick. | ||
Check that out. | ||
YouTube.com slash Timcast. | ||
And let's jump into the first story. | ||
We got this from the Postmillennial. | ||
Breaking! | ||
Biden has cancerous tissue removed from chest. | ||
A statement from the president's physician announced that Biden had a skin lesion on his chest removed at Walter Reed Hospital in DC, which was later tested and found to be basal cell carcinoma, a type of skin cancer. | ||
Alright, so that's the news. | ||
You may be asking, because I don't want to bury this. | ||
I don't want to come out and be like, he's dying, he has cancer. | ||
No, no, no, hold on. | ||
This is the Kelowna Skin Cancer Center Clinic. | ||
Kelowna Skin Cancer Clinic. | ||
I just looked this up. | ||
Is basal cell carcinoma fatal? | ||
They say no. | ||
The risk of death is extremely low. | ||
However, it has the potential to cause significant disfigurement, and that can have a serious impact on your life. | ||
The prognosis is excellent. | ||
So it's not like Joe Biden is on his deathbed or anything like that. | ||
But the reason I think this is important is because we had this story a while ago, where on July 22, 2022, Joe Biden said he had cancer. | ||
He said, where is it at? | ||
Here's his quote here. | ||
And he says, you had to put it on your windshield wipers to get literally oil sick off the window. | ||
That's why I and so damn many other people I grew up, grew up with, have cancer. | ||
And why can, for the longest time, Delaware the highest cancer rate in the nation? | ||
When he said that, the media was like, no, no, no, he meant he had it. | ||
He had it. | ||
Well, apparently he didn't. | ||
I mean, apparently this dude has consistently had cancerous lesions on his skin. | ||
So, I don't know. | ||
It's breaking news. | ||
Do you guys think it's significant? | ||
The president has cancer? | ||
It's definitely significant. | ||
I don't think it's, it's not surprising because he did tell us he had cancer like last year. | ||
But then the media was like, no, no, no. | ||
Also, it's probably not super uncommon for people that are, you know, his age, in that kind of stressful environment, to develop some sort of reaction, stress reaction. | ||
Like, I think cancer can be brought on by stress and diet as much as, like, I don't know if pharma is going to tell you what it's brought on by, but a lot of times fixing your diet can, in my opinion... Skin cancer is usually a product of sun exposure. | ||
Usually. | ||
But that's another like an environmental stressor as well. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Sorry to interrupt. | ||
No, no. | ||
It just like my dad passed away of cancer and 20 years ago and it was melanoma. | ||
It's you know, it's not typical for people to die. | ||
But Joe Biden is from from skin cancer. | ||
But Joe Biden is old, you know. | ||
So I don't know that that this is is something that is going to often But I imagine it's worth being honest with the American people about. | ||
I think the biggest issue here is the fact that, again, the media is, you know, playing, doing the PR role for the administration. | ||
Remember that story about Biden being in the shower and then trying to grab the dog's tail and then slipping and breaking his foot or whatever? | ||
Yeah. | ||
Everybody, you know, Washington's everybody, but a lot of people thought that was cover for something else so they could get him into the hospital. | ||
Oh, he hurt his foot, he's gotta go to the hospital, and then really they were doing something else. | ||
unidentified
|
What was the timeline on that? | |
On how long he was in the hospital for? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, or like, when he was in. | |
I'm curious. | ||
I don't know, but I mean, if they can go in and remove cancerous tissue that quickly, I wonder if they've, like, they're at the point where they're just like, look, we can't pretend anymore, like, we just gotta tell people the truth. | ||
It's not the first time he's had cancer removed, but I don't know. | ||
I'm just... The crazy thing is, at first I see this story about Biden having cancer and I'm like, OK, well, it's serious no matter how serious the cancer is. | ||
But then I just think nobody who likes Joe Biden, well, nobody likes Joe Biden, but nobody who is on the left or liberal cares. | ||
The dude could, like, have a heart attack on stage and they'd be like, well, you know, and they'd make an excuse for it. | ||
And then people on the right don't believe he's actually in charge anyway. | ||
So does anybody really care that Biden's I do. | ||
I care. | ||
I don't like him, but I care about him. | ||
And I mean, I mean, politically, like, is there any concern at all? | ||
So he's an 80 year old man. | ||
And I understand many people in the audience aren't the biggest fans of Joe Biden. | ||
But I think we should be praying for this man, given that if he plots, then it's Kamala Harris. | ||
So it's only getting worse from here. | ||
And it's gonna get a lot worse. | ||
People think Joe Biden's incompetent. | ||
I think Kamala Harris is twice as incompetent as Joe Biden. | ||
So we should be praying for this 80 year old man. | ||
Joe Biden used to know some stuff. | ||
Kamala Harris has never Never known a thing ever. | ||
And yeah, they're still trying to drop her. | ||
There's been a lot of beef between Biden and Kamala. | ||
So I'd be keeping an eye on her, if anything, because if something happens to Biden, I'd be nervous that Kamala was involved. | ||
Or a sick Biden, like a really not well guy, makes way poorer decisions. | ||
Like an unhealthy mind is the most dangerous president we could have. | ||
I don't care who it is, if someone's got a broken brain. | ||
So I want him to become healthy and soak in the tub. | ||
There's an old saying that the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree. | ||
And so when you look at Hunter Biden as a human being, you have to wonder about his dad. | ||
I was like, I want to, I want to help the, I want to like these people to become healthier. | ||
I want Vladimir Zelensky to become healthier. | ||
I want Vladimir Putin to become healthier. | ||
And then I was like, I want the Russian soldier and the Ukrainian soldier that are shooting at each other to both become healthier. | ||
And then I was picturing two guys in a knife fight and trying to get them to both become healthier. | ||
And I'm like, I couldn't. | ||
Ian is too pure for life. | ||
At some point I can't heal both of them when they're killing each other. | ||
That's right. | ||
You can't heal one? | ||
Like I can't I don't know who to like I do want to like Elevate and heal people, but when they're, it's like I can't, it's, I couldn't like spiritually do it. | ||
I was like there's some sort of blockade, like blur. | ||
So I have an idea here. | ||
I think there's something wrong. | ||
What I think we see sometimes in politics is where they push politicians who are unhealthy to continue running and continue their role because there's a lot of people attached to them. | ||
And I think we saw that in the case with, I don't know exactly what's going on with Dianne Feinstein, but she has shingles and she probably should have retired a long time ago. | ||
Joe Biden doesn't seem totally confident. | ||
John Fetterman probably didn't need to finish running that campaign after he had the stroke, but it seemed that he was pressured by his wife and others. | ||
Chrissy, what do you think about this stuff? | ||
unidentified
|
Well, yeah, it's just I was thinking that the whole Biden thing is so reminiscent of what's going on with John Fetterman. | |
I just I genuinely know you're talking about this with Ashley the other day, too. | ||
Like, there's no way that man just has depression. | ||
There has to be something else. | ||
He's got to be covering up for something else. | ||
But at the same time, you know, I counteract myself because I'm like, there's no way his wife just left a man that could be dying of something to go to Canada. | ||
Unless she's like a Stepford wife, you know? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
I get it though, because if John's incapacitated and the kids are probably so scared for their dad, and so they're like, let's do something fun. | ||
It's not in Niagara Falls, so it wasn't like they went to the deep runaway, it's New York, | ||
you know, Niagara Falls right across the border. | ||
I'm thinking though, like, think about your spouse is running in a primary, they have | ||
a stroke, they aren't in the best of health, and the campaign is not an easy thing to run. | ||
It's a lot of pressure, it's a lot of stress. | ||
Reporters are hounding you. | ||
I was one of the reporters hounding them. | ||
And she was like, no, let's stay in the race through the general and one of the most contentious elections, Senate races. | ||
It's an extremely close Senate race. | ||
And that takes a toll on your health. | ||
So you have to think about like what a lot of these people around them are putting some of these politicians through. | ||
And you have to worry if Joe Biden is okay. | ||
And again, we're praying that he is because if he does plot or resign, it's not getting better. | ||
I don't know. | ||
I don't know if I think it'll be that different. | ||
I think Kamala Harris has a different team around her. | ||
unidentified
|
I think they're completely... You think Kamala Harris has a team? | |
I mean, yeah, and I think she has a different team around her that think that she's incompetent. | ||
Like, she also did very poorly across the country when she was running for president. | ||
I don't even think she polled well in California. | ||
She quit before the California primaries, so that way she didn't get hosed and lose her entire political career. | ||
Cause she was gonna, she was gonna get trounced in California. | ||
unidentified
|
By Andrew Yang. | |
Yeah. | ||
I couldn't imagine Kamala Harris interacting with different world leaders too in a serious way. | ||
She'd just have that nervous laugh. | ||
I don't trust her with her hands on the nuclear weapon. | ||
I'm kinda, whether it's Trump, I mean, I think Trump would do a good job. | ||
But I gotta be honest, you know, we're gonna talk a little bit later about this, this cat lady burning down her house. | ||
And then I just think about it and I'm just like, maybe we just need some hard times, man. | ||
I think we'll all be fine. | ||
I think everybody who listens to a show like this is probably fine. | ||
We got so many people who are like, look, I bought chickens, I got out of the city. | ||
And I'm just like, I think most people will be fine. | ||
And I think the reality is, I wouldn't want to pull a Bill Maher and be like, bring on the recession to get rid of Trump. | ||
But I would want to say something like, guys, whether you want it to or not, this storm is a-brewin'. | ||
And we can see the clouds off on the horizon, whether it comes now or whether it comes tomorrow, you best get ready for it. | ||
But you know what? | ||
That storm's gonna come and wash away all of- all of this bs. | ||
I've- I've- Toyed with the idea of let it get worse sooner so that it can get better faster. | ||
I don't think it really works that way. | ||
If you let things get bad, they get really bad and out of control. | ||
And when things are out of control, the World Economic Forum creates a new government. | ||
I'm not saying let things get out of control. | ||
I'm saying brace yourself for the storm. | ||
For sure. | ||
And I'm saying whether it's Biden or Kamala, that storm's coming either way. | ||
But let's weather the storm. | ||
The thing is, to Tim's point, the more people you have prepared for hard times and for the | ||
storm or whatever, the less impact the people have on the people that are unprepared. | ||
So the more people you have that are prepared, the more capable they are of helping the people that are unprepared. | ||
So it's it's just a good idea to, you know, have some kind of ability to have to fend for yourself, have some food stored up, you know, have have a week or two, maybe a couple of months, depending on your your ability. | ||
You know, I'm just a lot of people have chickens. | ||
How do you defend your chickens? | ||
What's the best defense? | ||
Electric fence? | ||
Guns? | ||
Mil-spec AR-15. | ||
So like actual guard on duty? | ||
Beyond a guard on duty, electric fence? | ||
A stud rooster? | ||
Well, for Cocktown, we have an electric fence. | ||
And that mostly keeps out the predators, though some of the roosters have jumped over it because, I mean, they're dumb. | ||
And they're looking for girls and there's no girls. | ||
But I don't blame them, like, if I was in a big room full of dudes, and they were like, outside's dangerous, I'd be like, yeah, but it's like, nothing but dudes in here. | ||
But if someone tries to steal the chicken, it's basically you need a guard on duty? | ||
I mean, depending on what's happening, I wouldn't want to end a human being's life over a chicken, you know? | ||
But if we're talking about, like, the apocalypse, and you've got banditos who are trying to come and steal your food, and that could kill you, and then you gotta really think about that. | ||
But I want to go back to my point. | ||
My point was just this. | ||
You see these videos of these like morbidly obese millennials and Gen Zers being like, why do I have to have a job? | ||
I should be allowed to just sleep all day. | ||
And I'm kind of like, maybe life's too good. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
Like, look, right now, and I'm not talking about hardworking Americans. | ||
You got a dude working at a steel mill, who's barely scraping by, and you contrast that with morbidly obese young people who are like, I don't want a job. | ||
I'm not saying the dude at the steel mill needs a harder life. | ||
I'm saying he's already working hard. | ||
She's already working hard. | ||
I'm saying we got too many young people who don't work hard at all. | ||
Extract from the system, vote for government to take money from the people who are working to give to people who aren't. | ||
You know, people talk about how communism is coming. | ||
And we played that video the other day where this teacher talks about socialism and she said she gives her whole class a shared grade and then the grades slowly go down. | ||
So the story was the students were like, socialism works. | ||
And she said, okay, then we'll average all of your grades. | ||
So nobody fails, but nobody gets an A either. | ||
And they said, great, let's do it. | ||
The hard workers who study really hard get Bs, and the lazy people got Bs. | ||
And so the lazy people were like, this is great, I'm not gonna do anything. | ||
And the hard workers were like, even though I worked hard, I got nothing? | ||
Screw that, I'm not gonna do any work. | ||
And the grades kept dropping. | ||
So I'm saying, we're already there, man. | ||
We're already there. | ||
If you are listening to this, and you work in a warehouse, and you're a forklift operator, you're a truck driver, you are facing hardship, you're facing lockdowns, you're a contractor, you're a carpenter, you're whatever, you're doing physical labor every day, and you know Your buying power is being diminished because there are morbidly obese Gen Z and Millennials sitting in big cities voting to take your money from you and then going on TikTok and being like, I should have to have a job. | ||
Yeah, this is my problem with Medicare for All. | ||
I don't want to pay for people that are intentionally or self-inflicting damage on themselves, either through eating sugar. | ||
That was my big one. | ||
And Jimmy Dore, we had on the show, one of the biggest proponents of Medicare for All that I know, and I said that to him. | ||
And he's like, well, what about people that go skiing and break their leg? | ||
Like, is that self-inflicted? | ||
Good argument, Jimmy. | ||
But then I was like, but another big problem I have is that people that make the medicine make the sugar. | ||
It's the same industry. | ||
I don't have the paperwork to show it, but I know that the pharma food industry is connected. | ||
And they're very happy to sell you sugar and then sell you the medicine to heal the cancer later. | ||
So I don't want Medicare. | ||
I don't want to pay for people's lazy or ignorance. | ||
And even Jimmy was like, that's a good point. | ||
He didn't have an answer for that. | ||
So I don't like Medicare for All. | ||
Not on the straight up, like, let's pay for everyone's inconsistencies. | ||
No. | ||
This is hilarious. | ||
So I got this Coke right here that I'm drinking, and it's the glass bottle pure sugar one. | ||
And it says it's got 39 added sugars, which is 78% of your daily sugar intake. | ||
Dear God, that is a lot of sugar. | ||
Based on a 2,000 calorie diet? | ||
Yeah, based on like probably 10 times more sugar than you're actually supposed to have. | ||
So you're probably getting 700% of your daily sugar on that. | ||
Yeah, that's a guess, but like you're probably getting more than what the number on the bottle is actually saying. | ||
You're not supposed to eat refined sugar. | ||
It's crazy. | ||
It's so powerful. | ||
I'm gonna poll the audience on this one and just ask you guys and everybody here, do you think young people need hard work right now? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, and I actually think that one of the best things that older generations can do is to pull young people into some sort of religious or general community. | |
I feel like I watch it time and time again. | ||
I'm Gen Z. I'm 25 years old. | ||
My generation's completely lost on religion and you have to see These study after study show that people are depressed and yet the religion is ticking down. | ||
Your true freedom does not come from being able to sleep with whoever you want to sleep with. | ||
Your true freedom comes from peace and peace comes from hard work. | ||
If you have none of that, where are you going to end up? | ||
Sad, depressed, fat on TikTok. | ||
And I think that the best thing you can do is if you're that steel worker that goes to church every Sunday, invite your fat millennial, okay? | ||
Like, invite them to church. | ||
Because to me, that's where the community gets built, and that's where people get happy and feel free. | ||
I think a part of the reason why people don't want to work hard anymore is also a result of the eroding results that come from it. | ||
And I'm directly citing, like, Columbia University is no longer requiring SAT or ACT scores in undergraduate admissions. | ||
So, like, why is anybody motivated to work hard and try to do well in admissions anymore? | ||
People need to be cynical nowadays, and that's the way to get ahead. | ||
You need to cynically wield your identity when applying to Columbia University. | ||
You need to write some BS in your college essay, and you're more likely to get in than if you work hard on your SAT or ACT. | ||
Well, did you see that Delta—I think it was United Airlines. | ||
They announced the all-LGBTQ crew. | ||
What? | ||
Yeah, yeah. | ||
They were like, this is the Pride plane and the crew is all LGBTQ. | ||
And I'm just like, so did like HR ask all of the applicants about their sexual, you know, proclivities? | ||
Like, imagine you're like, I'm a pilot. | ||
I would like this job. | ||
And they go, okay. | ||
And, um, how many flight hours do you have? | ||
Oh yeah, that's, that's a lot. | ||
And do you sleep with men or women? | ||
And then the pilot's like, uh, men. | ||
Like, oh, so you're gay. | ||
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
We'll put that down. | ||
Well, we have a great opportunity for you. | ||
They ask for volunteers. | ||
They're like, look, this is what we want to do. | ||
If there are any members of the LGBT community that work for Delta, please, blah, blah, blah. | ||
This is what our plan is. | ||
It's cynical. | ||
It's garbage. | ||
It's not even June. | ||
But here's my point. | ||
As we move towards automation, one thing that Andrew Yang didn't quite capture Yeah. | ||
is that if there are no skill-based requirements for a job because the AI is doing it, then | ||
it's going to be identity-based requirements for the job. | ||
If anybody can press the button, then they're going to go for the disabled, trans, person | ||
of color, whatever, and be like—well, I mean, look, if you're a company like in California, | ||
they have board requirements now, or something like that. | ||
I'm pretty sure they passed a law and they were like, your board has to have x many people of color and females. | ||
So they're gonna be like, can we get all of that in one person? | ||
And so if they gotta hire somebody... But anyway look, as more things become automated, you're gonna have someone at a McDonald's and their job's gonna be to watch the machines. | ||
And if they break, to then call someone. | ||
Well, if there's no qualification, it's gonna be identity. | ||
You go to Walmart and it's all self-checkouts, basically. | ||
Which is really annoying. | ||
And they got one person just standing there. | ||
There's no real qualification for the job other than you have to be there. | ||
Well, then it's gonna be identity-based. | ||
Yeah, if our institutions start to creep more towards caring about DEI for reasons to hire people, then it will come at the cost of people's merit and actual skill at the jobs. | ||
Not only are we seeing the SATs and ACTs being disregarded, but also in law schools we're seeing them be disregarded. | ||
The MCATs are being disregarded now as well. | ||
It's like, these are the things I want my doctors to know. | ||
I want my lawyer to be able to do really well on the LSAT. | ||
I want my, you know, my doctors to be able to have the best scores on the MCATs. | ||
I don't care if you're a black, Indian, Jewish or whatnot, so... | ||
unidentified
|
Well, we did see some good news today out of Texas A&M. | |
Their system cut their diversity, equity, and inclusion statements for admission, which is the first university in the country to do away with all that crap. | ||
And I think it might have been the New York Times, some workplace, was talking on and on about how George Floyd inspired DEI and now, a couple years later, all the DEI jobs are dying. | ||
That's all just a lie. | ||
That's all manipulation and they can screw themselves. | ||
It's all manipulation. | ||

First of all, this is the first college we're seeing, so how would that be accurate that the New York Times is saying that? | |
When this is one of the first colleges across the nation and it's a pretty conservative college relatively. | ||
It turns out that Vanguard is pulling out of ESG. | ||
Did you guys see? | ||
It's a third of the global capital is out. | ||
Really? | ||
Yeah. | ||
Pull this up dude. | ||
This is like a two week old article. | ||
That's a big deal. | ||
It's 50 trillion dollars. | ||
They're not playing this game. | ||
They're going economic. | ||
While you pull it up, there's one, like, I wanted, like, you had mentioned, someone had mentioned, talking about, like, why kids are depressed. | ||
Like, human beings are, human beings are. | ||
Well, this is Vanguard's CEO. | ||
This is huge. | ||
Pulls out of the Net Zero Manager's Initiative and affirms his fiduciary duty to clients. | ||
We should have, this is day one, top world class news. | ||
This is, this is almost, it's like a week and a half ago. | ||
Yeah, seriously, this is them being like, hey, get woke, go broke, we lost too much money, and now we have no choice but to pull out. | ||
ESG's done. | ||
This is it. | ||
The blood has been sucked out of the body. | ||
It's not done. | ||
This is good, but ESG is pushed by ideologically motivated people. | ||
So that's like saying that a religion is done. | ||
Okay, it's not done, but this is an example of capitalism not functioning with communism. | ||
Communism is not profitable, and the capitalist system won't use it. | ||
Well, I mean, it's good that people are recognizing that ESG is not good for results for companies and stuff like that. | ||
And it is communism, and it's not particularly, it's not intended or simply melded with capitalism, but if you look at China, Then that refutes your argument there, because China has at least a surface-level communist society, and they have markets. | ||
And that's what China did. | ||
China took the basics of Marxism. | ||
Maoism is Marxist-Leninism with Chinese characteristics. | ||
And all they've done is managed to implement markets. | ||
But they still have the control. | ||
And they still use the ideology of communism to control the opinions of the population. | ||
America, we kind of get this general sense that everyone in China feels like they're oppressed and stuff and I don't think that that's the case. | ||
I don't think a billion and a half people all hate their government and are just waiting for the second to rise up. | ||
It's way more complex than that. | ||
I don't know how profitable Chinese companies are realistically, like real profit, like thriving. | ||
Profit doesn't matter in modern monetary theory, bro. | ||
They are printing money and the system has become so big. | ||
The petrodollar has become so big. | ||
They know that it's almost impossible to shake the confidence in the value of the dollar. | ||
So they can just mass print the money and spend it wherever they want without a thought. | ||
No, no. | ||
I mean, not really. | ||
Thomas Massey actually was just talking about this. | ||
The last five trillion that was printed was actually just created out of thin air. | ||
Normally it's loaned. | ||
Right, they always do that. | ||
No, normally they loan it out. | ||
Thomas Massey's brilliant, man. | ||
He is. | ||
And he pointed out that we actually just diluted our economy. | ||
I thought it was always just printed out of thin air, but apparently it's been on the books, and then we're allowed to get it loaned to us, and so we know ahead of time how much is going to be there. | ||
The money supply's expanded when a bank issues a loan. | ||
And now this last time they just... It is created, it is not... When a bank is issuing a loan, the money is fabricated in that moment. | ||
They then just put in your account the loan, the money exists. | ||
Congratulations. | ||
So I would push back that I think modern monetary theory is profitable, and that's why it worked, and that what they're doing now isn't modern monetary theory. | ||
You're supposed to take out a huge loan invested in infrastructure, then you make more than what you took out, and you pay back the loan. | ||
That's modern monetary theory. | ||
I don't think that that's accurate. | ||
Well, that's the idea. | ||
That's what they did after World War II. | ||
That's not modern monetary theory. | ||
Modern monetary theory is based on the idea that because the issuing country requires that the people of the country pay taxes in the currency that was issued, that means that the currency is always going to have value because you have to pay taxes with that currency. | ||
Are you sure there's no Like, premise of building infrastructure with the loan? | ||
That's policy. | ||
That's not monetary policy. | ||
That's infrastructure policy. | ||
They have created demand for the currency by force. | ||
If you do not pay what you owe, we will lock you up. | ||
Therefore, people are always going, I need dollars. | ||
And as long as someone needs the dollars, the economy will keep on churning. | ||
But this also means, as a component of it, taxes aren't being paid. | ||
So that we can go to war. | ||
The war in Ukraine is not tax dollars. | ||
They fabricate this money. | ||
And it extracts the buying power from your bank account. | ||
So your $500 in your bank doesn't move at all, doesn't change. | ||
But what you can buy with $500 does. | ||
unidentified
|
And if today... | |
I was talking about this a year ago with the COVID stimulus and all that stuff. | ||
I put a tablet in my Amazon cart and then forgot to buy it. | ||
And then like a day later, opened up Amazon and it said, alert, prices have changed. | ||
And it went up like 130 bucks. | ||
And I was like, whoa, if I bought that like a week ago, I would have saved a lot of money. | ||
Almost every time I order something on Amazon that I've ordered in the past, I'll check my old order invoice to look at the old price versus what I'm about to pay, because I'm fascinated with the changes in price. | ||
I'll see like a 10% change here and there. | ||
I mean, inflation is a real thing. | ||
That's what Tim's talking about. | ||
But when it comes to taxation and stuff, the tax To control inflation so like when you say you know you when people talk about paying taxes to pay bills They don't pay taxes to you don't pay taxes to pay bills the whole point of you paying taxes is so that way there is less currency Moving through the system. | ||
It's literally taking money from you Specifically so you have less money Is that why taxes started up or was that if they wanted to do that the Fed could just increase their rates? | ||
No, no, that's not, that's, the Fed increases the interest rates, that's the cost of borrowing money. | ||
The taxation is what you have to pay to the federal government. | ||
To control inflation. | ||
Yeah, and that's, like Tim said, to control inflation. | ||
Organized deflation. | ||
They suck up the money and then they burn it. | ||
You think the government uses taxes as a tool to control inflation? | ||
unidentified
|
That's a fact. | |
I don't just think it, I know it. | ||
That's a fact, actually. | ||
That is literally the logic of taxes. | ||
That is modern monetary theory. | ||
I mean, they're supposed to deflate, but they might be using it, I don't know. | ||
The U.S. | ||
government can create money if they want to. Quantitative easing through | ||
the Fed, or Barack Obama issued that stimulus, or as Ian pointed out, the last five trillion was | ||
just fabricated. The purpose of paying taxes is not so that money can be used for war. | ||
Technically, you can say it is, but it's to control for inflation because the government can manifest | ||
money wherever they want, but if they do too much, you'll get runaway inflation. So they need to | ||
then bring down the money supply in verse to... But like on the state and local level, they're | ||
collecting taxes. Of course. | ||
That's because they're not the... But federal... Yeah, because state and localities don't issue the currency. | ||
Yeah, I just thought that the most effective tool to control inflation, though, would be Feds changing the rates and influencing the money supply. | ||
They combine it. | ||
If the U.S. | ||
government is, through various means, or the economy is expanding the money supply, and there's no controls for that, you get runaway inflation. | ||
You look at these countries where they just mass print money, they get trillion dollar bills, and then all of a sudden it's worthless overnight because it's hyperinflation. | ||
So you need a way to restrict the money supply to make sure things don't get out of control so the system doesn't break. | ||
You'll find, there's a Thomas Massey video I'm referencing is where he pours water into the iced tea to explain dilution of the economy. | ||
And everyone's like, grrr. | ||
I mean, I don't know what they're doing, but he's like explaining to like third graders. | ||
It's really awesome. | ||
So if you type Thomas Massey iced tea, you might find it on the internet. | ||
So like with Nordic countries, they have super high tax rates. | ||
That's, um, they're trying to control. | ||
No. | ||
Okay. | ||
They can't issue petrodollars. | ||
So, for some of these countries, it probably is true, but the U.S. | ||
is the global reserve currency. | ||
So we can just fabricate money. | ||
We don't need to manufacture goods. | ||
And apparently, according to Massey, all the countries of Earth, as well, inflated the crap out of their economy when we printed that $5 trillion. | ||
And that's the only reason, or the main reason, why we haven't gone under. | ||
We print out a ton of money, but China prints out even more. | ||
And it's interesting how their economy works. | ||
But Chrissy, do you have any thoughts on all this money talk? | ||
unidentified
|
I am learning so much right now. | |
Can I just say that? | ||
I'm like, this is over my head in terms of like my everyday thing. | ||
And I'm fascinated because I'm just learning so much. | ||
Don't you love being the stupidest person in the room? | ||
Oh, hell yeah. | ||
unidentified
|
It's the best. | |
For all you know, we're all really dumb and just talking on our asses. | ||
I don't know if Phil's right. | ||
I'm going to have to fact check everything later. | ||
Yeah, I thought it was about the money supply and the Fed, but hey, I'm willing to be wrong. | ||
I've never had a thought of my own. | ||
I only repeat things that I've heard, so I'm not smart. | ||
unidentified
|
But I only learned this from you, Phil. | |
You can actually Google modern monetary theory and you can Bing it if you feel dirty. | ||
Hey, be careful. | ||
They might have changed the definition, though. | ||
I thought that it was about investing in infrastructure, but are you... That's policy. | ||
Modern monetary theory is the policy that the government has regarding the monetary policy. | ||
The policy you're talking about is like infrastructure policy. | ||
So they would take loans or create money so that way they could pay people that are going to build buildings or whatever. | ||
Like the New Deal? | ||
Yeah, that's stimulating the economy. | ||
That's different than creating the money that goes into the economy. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
Like the monetary policy that they have is different than like an infrastructure policy. | ||
They're different things. | ||
Wasn't there like a trillion dollars missing from like the Pentagon's books or something? | ||
Happens a lot apparently, yeah. | ||
My conspiracy on that is that we're making a special little something. | ||
That's too much money to just go missing. | ||
September 10th is right before 9-11. | ||
But it might not be one chunk of 2 trillion, it might just be accounting errors. | ||
Yeah, we hope not. | ||
Accounting errors can be scary, I'll tell you that. | ||
Because if somebody carries a 1 in the wrong place, Then all of a sudden your tax preparer comes to you and says, you know, oh, you actually owe $7,000 more. | ||
And you're like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, how is that possible? | ||
Like, I'm overpaid. | ||
And they go, oh, I carried one in the wrong spot. | ||
It looked like you had more money than you did. | ||
And I'm like, thank you. | ||
That's, you know, that's, that's crazy. | ||
So when it comes to the auditing problems with the Pentagon and the Federal Reserve, we need to audit them. | ||
Here it is. | ||
Donald Rumsfeld in 2001 announced that the Pentagon had lost, the Department of Defense had lost more than $2.3 trillion. | ||
Lost. | ||
Lost, but hold on, hold on. | ||
What's your source? | ||
What's your source? | ||
This is a video from How Money Works referencing... Yeah, I want a real source. | ||
I mean, I've heard this story for two decades. | ||
Yeah, the story I heard was they could not account for $2.3 trillion, which means... Yeah, but they're failing audit. | ||
But that means the money is just not tracked properly. | ||
It could still be in their bank. | ||
It could have been spent somewhere, but someone, you know, gave $100,000 to one department and then didn't write it down. | ||
And so they're like, where did that money go? | ||
I don't remember, but it's still there. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
From Armstrong Economics says the Office of the Inspector General has reported that the Department of Defense is missing $6.5 trillion, up from $2.3 trillion. | ||
This is due to an increase in government spending under the Obama administration from $2.9 to $3.9. | ||
Well, all right. | ||
That's insane. | ||
So they're missing $6.5 trillion. | ||
I mean, that's absolutely scandalous. | ||
The government has gone rogue. | ||
I don't know what to do. | ||
Thomas Jefferson's the man. | ||
It's so scandalous, no one even cares. | ||
Let's talk about some cultural stuff real quick. | ||
Yeah, please. | ||
We have this story from the post-millennial. | ||
Daily Wire's Jeremy Boring launches new chocolate company in response to Hershey's woke trans stunt. | ||
They did this so fast. | ||
I am impressed. | ||
I will play for you the video right now. | ||
That's because they're just re-wrapping chocolate that exists. | ||
Well, but that's all chocolate is. | ||
Like all of these, everyone's got a coffee company. | ||
Like I did not buy a coffee roaster. | ||
And then, you know, I think, I think the quarter, Jeremy, the quartering literally did. | ||
Yeah. | ||
What we did was we found a provider. | ||
We, we talked to them about the blend that we wanted and the kind of coffee that we like. | ||
And they're, they're creating for us a specific thing. | ||
And then we put our label on it because it's our version of a coffee. | ||
So they'll make a bunch of different kinds of coffee. | ||
What we're doing is combining the ones we like and then selling it under our name. | ||
But here's a commercial for you guys. | ||
International Women's Day is a- I got it, hold on. | ||
unidentified
|
There we go. | |
Upon us again. | ||
And I love an international woman. | ||
But our friends over at Hershey's, they don't even know what a woman is. | ||
They've hired a biological male to be the spokesperson for their Women's Day campaign. | ||
And they're calling that campaign, and I swear I'm not making this up, Her-She. | ||
Her-She. | ||
It's humiliating. | ||
And it's the reason that I'm launching- And that was pretty clever, though. | ||
Jeremy's Chocolate. | ||
We have two kinds. | ||
She-her, and he-him. | ||
One of them's got nuts. | ||
If you need me to tell you which one it is, keep giving your money to Hershey's. | ||
Look at Michael all he's laughing at. | ||
If you're tired of giving your money to woke corporations that hate you, and you're looking for a delicious chocolate bar from a company that actually wants your business, head over to IHateHershey's.com and order Jeremy's Chocolate today. | ||
I'm sorry, man. | ||
The Daily Wire does awesome stuff. | ||
This is brilliant. | ||
I said when the whole Hershey Women's Day trans thing happened, I was like, you shouldn't boycott Hershey because they hired a trans person, okay? | ||
You should not do that. | ||
You should boycott Hershey because it's disgusting garbage sugar that kills you and you should eat an avocado or something. | ||
I thought you were going to make a ginger joke about the trans person. | ||
Yeah, if it doesn't say fair trade. | ||
They're probably using slave labor to acquire the cacao if it doesn't say fair trade on the package. | ||
What if the Daily Wire chocolate is like the most brutal, dictatorial chocolate? | ||
Oh, Jeremy, get Fairtrade, bro. | ||
I'll buy it if it's Fairtrade. | ||
I want it more now. | ||
I gotta say, Brett Cooper held it down in that video. | ||
She's awesome. | ||
I think as an actor, she's gonna be like a superstar in the world. | ||
It's just now building up the comments. | ||
She was a child actor in Hollywood, and they hired her. | ||
So when you go to I Hate Hershey's, it actually brings you to jeremysrazors.com. | ||
And then you can buy Jeremy's Chocolate Binary. | ||
Brilliant. | ||
Nuts and nutless. | ||
And, uh, I'll tell you what they did. | ||
They probably, as soon as this happened, they had someone design She, Her, He, Him. | ||
They probably bought a chocolate bar from Walgreens, or whatever supermarkets they have in Nashville, and then just printed out the paper, wrapped it around the thing for a prop, Then they called a bespoke chocolate labeler and they said, we want to sell the chocolate, and they said, we can have it packaged for you. | ||
Because when you go to Hersheypark, you can actually get your own barmaid. | ||
There's this thing where you walk into this room, and then you pick what you want. | ||
Like, I want white chocolate with toffee bits, and then I want it covered in dark chocolate. | ||
Hershey, Pennsylvania? | ||
Yeah, I went to that factory once. | ||
Yeah, we went there a little while ago. | ||
I won't go there now. | ||
But they make a box and everything. | ||
And the funny thing is when I went there, they do this thing where they take the first three letters of your last name and then put it on your bar. | ||
So when I got my chocolate with nuts and it was lumpy and brown, It had the first three letters of my last name on the box, and so I went to the woman who was running, and I said, ma'am, can I get a different label for this box? | ||
It was a young man first, and he goes, no you can't. | ||
And I was like, my guy? | ||
Of course not. | ||
I am not going to spend, what is it, like 50 bucks? | ||
on a poo bar. You gotta give me a better box for this. If you told me they would do that, | ||
I would not have put my last name on the box. And so then the lady came over, looked at it, | ||
and started laughing. And I was like, I was kind of perturbed that they told me, | ||
no, you're the poo bar. And so when the lady came back, it started laughing. | ||
At first, I was a little irked, but I started laughing too, and I was like, it's amazing, isn't it? | ||
And then she took it, and she gave me a new box. | ||
But they, like, there's a machine that does it all. | ||
So I didn't get the properly sealed box like everybody else got, because mine said poo on it. | ||
They had to give me a stock box, and then just drop it in there, and then tape it shut. | ||
And I'm like, you know, you can't, whatever. | ||
But that, anyway. | ||
Some people got it rough. | ||
Anyway, story aside, I think I'm going to buy a crap load of this stuff. | ||
I think I'm going to buy like 500 bars. | ||
And I'm going to have them downstairs for guests and for employees. | ||
And it's going to be funny because you're going to walk in and you know what's funny? | ||
It actually says nuts and nutless on them. | ||
I love it! | ||
I love it, I love Jeremy, I love Daily Wire, but I don't want it with sugar. | ||
That's my only downside. | ||
If it was a product, like a meatless meat or whatever, that's not what I mean. | ||
The worst thing about when I tried to get that Hershey bar is that I put everything in it. | ||
So like, what it is, it's like a bowl. | ||
It's a chocolate bar with an edge around it to hold the stuff in. | ||
And I was like, I want white chocolate chips, I want chocolate chips, I want toffee bits. | ||
So it created this big mound. | ||
And then it blankets it, what do they call it, enrobes it in chocolate? | ||
Enrobes it, nice. | ||
That's what they call it. | ||
And so what comes out, everyone else has like this thin normal looking bar and mine's lumpy and weird looking. | ||
And then they wrote poo on it and I was just like, I was like, come on man. | ||
Photo op. | ||
I probably should have just taken it and like, that's right, that's right. | ||
What are the odds of that? | ||
With the big lumpy chocolate. | ||
I was like, I would have put a fake name if you told me you were going to do that. | ||
Was it good when you ate it? | ||
Yeah, of course it was. | ||
Was it like too many ingredients? | ||
Because it harkens back to the day of when I had no money at Subway and I'd be like, extra everything. | ||
And that would be my meal. | ||
Dude, I'd go to Wendy's and I would be like, I would like the dollar menu junior cheeseburger deluxe or whatever. | ||
And I want quadruple extra tomato, quadruple extra lettuce and quadruple extra cheese. | ||
Like whatever's free. | ||
And then some places the cheese is extra, but sometimes they would tell me they didn't care. | ||
And I'd be like, how many tomatoes can I get? | ||
And they'd be like, I don't know, tomatoes are free. | ||
And I was like, can I get seven? | ||
And they'd be like, I guess. | ||
And I'm like, I need food! | ||
unidentified
|
I'm poor! | |
So there's a lot of people who aren't like the biggest fans of the Daily Wire, that aren't the most bullish on the Daily Wire. | ||
And I think, you know, the Chocolate Bar is a little bit gimmicky, the He-Him, the Nutless, even though that's a great line, it's a little bit gimmicky. | ||
But I think you really do need to give the Daily Wire so much credit because they do so many different things across the board between Matt Walsh is lobbying for different bans against, you know, these conversions, these transconversion surgeries in Tennessee, or signing Jordan Peterson or Jeremy's Razors, or I know they're also doing children's books. | ||
And Chrissy, maybe you could tell me a little bit of some of their other projects going on. | ||
But they're just really willing to work on these other projects. | ||
And I think a lot of people in the right-wing movement or conservative movement aren't willing to put as many risks out like the Daily Wire seems to be doing. | ||
I'm really bullish on them and I think they're doing a great job and they should continue doing stuff like this in the space. | ||
I agree. | ||
unidentified
|
I'm a Daily Caller and I'm a Daily Wire. | |
Yeah, she's at a different company. | ||
Were you previously a Daily Wire? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, I was. | |
Okay, so previously. | ||
I'm ordering $2,000 worth of Jeremy's chocolate right now. | ||
Do it! | ||
I'm not even joking. | ||
What's the website? | ||
Ihatehersheys.com? | ||
Yeah. | ||
They're getting some orders tonight. | ||
Yeah, I'm ordering 480 bars. | ||
How many hims, how many hers? | ||
It's half of each, it's 240 of each. | ||
I wonder if they made a trans flavor, like a half nut half not? | ||
I think that's the whole point. | ||
Or just whole nut if it's, which, yeah. | ||
Whole nut would be a good... Well, because no matter, you can't make it half and half either way, right? | ||
There's no way to get to half and half. | ||
Order confirmed! | ||
Give me the nuts. | ||
In the trans man chocolate bar, there's just random things. | ||
But they could do a bunch of stuff that would be funny to make fun of. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, why don't they do trans women and just send you a bag of nuts? | |
Well, but no, but they could do, like, like, I don't know, they could, they're doing nuts and nutless. | ||
It's like, okay, what else do you got? | ||
You can make, uh, like cookies and cream and then... Oh, yeah. | ||
Or, or, you know, you could do one where it's, um, white chocolate with, uh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, no, it's got to be, like, banana cream with white chocolate inside. | ||
They could make, like, an Americanized Asian joke or something. | ||
You know what I would really love is a white and dark chocolate swirl bar. | ||
If you can pull that off. | ||
They could make like an American flag bar and they could be like, you know, we don't need none of this. | ||
There you go. | ||
We're Americans. | ||
I mean, actually, that's a really cool thing. | ||
Do they have freeze dried strawberry in it or something? | ||
Well, imagine this. | ||
Imagine you like open the wrapper and it's an American flag, but it's a candy bar. | ||
And you got, like, strawberry, white chocolate, and, I guess, blueberries? | ||
You can do that. | ||
Watch the food coloring, don't use that pharmaceutical tar, coal tar, you know, Yellow 5 Lake and crap like that, or what is it, petroleum-based? | ||
I have no idea. | ||
You know, food coloring? | ||
Yeah, the Yellow 5 Lake. | ||
Seed oils or something? | ||
But no, no joke, I just ordered 20, I think I ordered 20 packs. | ||
Nice. | ||
So that's, what is that, 420, 224 packs? | ||
480 was $2,000. | ||
But we run a business here, and I'm pretty sure that when we have guests here, when they go down, it's not about eating them, it's about seeing it, and people are going to be like, that's awesome. | ||
So it's an important business purchase. | ||
It's important to support Daily Wire because you like their projects, and if you think what they're doing is cool, then supporting them is great. | ||
This was fast! | ||
They did it in like six hours! | ||
Who do you think came up with nutless? | ||
Let's take a toll. | ||
I think it was Jeremy. | ||
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
Hold on. | ||
unidentified
|
I don't know. | |
The Daily Wire guys were sitting around and like, I'm imagining Jeremy smoking a cigar and he's like, we should make a chocolate bar to like make fun of Hershey's. | ||
And someone's like, oh dude, we should call it nut, nutless. | ||
And like, that's a great idea. | ||
And they're like all laughing and like Michael Knowles comes in and they're high-fiving each other. | ||
Just like do it. | ||
I think Knowles came up with it. | ||
He doesn't get enough credit. | ||
He's smart. | ||
Smart guy. | ||
Candace suggested, Candace Owens suggested I start a haircare line. | ||
And I was like, damn, when Candace Owens tells you you should start a company, you should probably start the company. | ||
It's kind of like Rogan telling you, you should do this, start doing it. | ||
unidentified
|
Why? | |
Was she complimenting your hair? | ||
Yeah, she was like, you got great, whatever. | ||
She didn't give me the compliment. | ||
She was just like, you should do that. | ||
And I'm like, yeah, man, they are set up now, Daily Wire, where they have that whole system ready to go. | ||
If they want to start a business, they got the lawyers, they got the business contacts. | ||
They're like, make it happen. | ||
And then they have a chocolate company. | ||
Make it happen. | ||
So it's like, once you get into that echelon of friendship or like compatriots, then They're also doing entertainment. | ||
I think they're trying to compete with Netflix, too, and make their own shows. | ||
I think they hired somebody who got fired from Disney, if I'm not mistaken, and tried to make a movie with them. | ||
They're doing a ton of projects. | ||
Good for them. | ||
Let's jump to this story we got from CNBC, and it's, you know, both sad and funny at the same time. | ||
Resumes including they, them pronouns are more likely to be overlooked new report finds. | ||
Well, gee, I'm so shocked! | ||
Inclusivity shouldn't just be present in the workplace, it should be practiced during the hiring process, but unfortunately, non-binary job seekers are facing clear biases during their job search. | ||
According to a new report from Business.com, a business resource platform, over 80% of non-binary people believe that identifying as non-binary would hurt their job search. | ||
Similarly, 51% believe their gender identity has affected their workplace experience, vary or somewhat negatively. | ||
I gotta make a point. | ||
If you wrote down on your resume that you were, that you identify as a globadoop, globadoop, they're not gonna hire you. | ||
I don't know what this is, this is weird. | ||
They're gonna say have a nice day. | ||
unidentified
|
They don't hire globadoops here? | |
My point is this. | ||
No, we do, we do actually. | ||
But my point is, if an employer looks at a resume and they're like, what the does that mean? | ||
They're not going to hire you because you're going to be like, I have no idea what this is. | ||
You have to put it to the back of the pile immediately. | ||
Yeah, they're going to say, look, man, I don't know what you're talking about. | ||
They, them? | ||
Like, what is this? | ||
Non-binary is a made up thing in the past several years. | ||
No one even understands. | ||
I know that gender and sex are different and sexuality is different than sex. | ||
You can be male, you can have a sexuality that's like guys or girls. | ||
But like, that's the reason that jobs don't ask for your sexual preference when you're signing up, because you don't want to be discriminated against. | ||
So don't offer it. | ||
Like, literally, you are hiring a lawsuit. | ||
unidentified
|
You are hiring an HR problem if you hire someone that- No, but do these resumes go to a separate pile that then get sent to HR so when they're like, I need a diversity hire, they got their stack right there? | |
Not if you're smart. | ||
unidentified
|
I'm not saying it's a smart tactic. | |
I'm just saying that's what they need to do to diversity hire. | ||
I mean, maybe. | ||
I think that you can probably achieve diversity hires without going for... Because the thing is, if you hire someone that has she, her, or he, him pronouns, right? | ||
You're probably going to get a person that is just looking to go to work do their job and looking to just live their life however | ||
they want. If you hire someone whose pronouns are Zir-Zim, you're hiring someone | ||
that's gonna make your job a living hell. They're gonna ruin your workplace, | ||
they're gonna come in and they're gonna bring their ideology along with them | ||
and every business is gonna be like, it is way easier to avoid people | ||
that use neo pronouns or they them pronouns and just hire people that | ||
use she and her and he You may end up with trans people and that's fine because they're just normal trans people that are just looking to live their lives. | ||
Not politically queer people that are activists that are looking to ruin your company. | ||
That's a good point. | ||
I think in general that that's probably true. | ||
There are probably, I'm sure, instances where someone would have ZZIR and they're totally cool. | ||
But I think when you've got to make huge decisions about thousands of people, you don't have time to go person by person. | ||
You've got to make, you know, split second decisions and stuff. | ||
unidentified
|
Are people really putting their pronouns? | |
Like, is this a normal thing? | ||
Because I'm looking at templates right now and even like the big websites aren't saying that you should be putting your pronouns in your... | ||
This is probably not liar. | ||
And that's the reason it got such attention. | ||
Because it's like, yo, I have one word of business advice for people. | ||
And this key to know your audience. | ||
So the only place where pronouns in your resume might help is I don't know media matters or the ACLU or CNN. | ||
But if you're applying somewhere else, then it probably wouldn't be the best idea. | ||
You always have to tailor your resume a little bit to the job you want. | ||
So if it is a leftist organization, they probably would like the they them or the pronouns in the resume. | ||
But otherwise, probably your best bet to not put a Here's the issue. | ||
It may be that very few people are actually putting they them in their resumes. | ||
And the media, looking for some issue, decides to write about this fringe group of people that aren't that numerous. | ||
Here's an example. | ||
This is great. | ||
Christopher Rufo tweeted, it's a sign of immense progress that in a search for racism, publications like the New York Times have to invent increasingly niche and implausible incidents of supposed bigotry such as, woman with large dreadlocks has trouble finding equestrian helmet. | ||
The New York Times wrote an article that says, Black equestrians want to be safe, but they can't find helmets. | ||
For black riders with natural hair, finding a helmet that fits can be virtually impossible. | ||
Some are trying to raise awareness for the problem, but manufacturers say it's not a simple fix. | ||
I love this because he was like, quote, I'm having trouble finding a horse riding helmet. | ||
It's racism, bro. | ||
It's like a white dude with dreadlocks too. | ||
So this is kind of the point. | ||
The media is like, we found a person who has chosen to have long hair and now the helmet won't fit. | ||
Racism. | ||
That's the thing. | ||
CNBC writing about non-binary people is just trying to create some kind of injustice narrative to get clicks. | ||
I get disability. | ||
You know, build me a ramp so that I can get into the front of the building. | ||
I get that. | ||
But when it comes to like dreads, my head doesn't fit in your helmet. | ||
You don't force someone to build you a helmet. | ||
That's totalitarianism. | ||
You build your own helmet. | ||
Or yeah, you start a company and hire people to help you make it. | ||
You go to a helmet maker and be like, I would like a helmet that can fit my dreads. | ||
And they're going to be like, bro, your hair's too big. | ||
The helmet's got to be snug and protect your brain. | ||
No, you show up at a place and you say, look, the helmet doesn't fit. | ||
It's racism. | ||
Now I get to be in charge. | ||
That's literally what they're doing. | ||
That's a good idea. | ||
unidentified
|
That's exactly what, that's what critical theories are. | |
Call stuff racist until you control it. | ||
unidentified
|
James Lindsay right there. New study that like 93% of kids in America can now demonstrate or understand at least one | |
tenant of critical race theory. | ||
Like if you thought about critical race theory five years ago, thinking that it would have a 93% success rate, that's | ||
unreal. | ||
I question that that number, though. | ||
Where did you get? Is that like a poll or something? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, it was a poll. | |
It was like a thousand people polled? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
It's difficult to pin down a tenant of critical race theory because it becomes this kind of amorphous idea, but I understand more general, but it's hard to like... But you're talking about school kids, right? | ||
unidentified
|
These are kids that are still in like K through 12? | |
Yeah. | ||
unidentified
|
So, I mean, the fact that these kids can identify one of the core concepts of whatever they'll call it, social-emotional learning, critical race theory, you know, They're problematic tenants to be teaching kids. | |
Do you know that it's critical race theory? | ||
unidentified
|
No, no, of course not. | |
It doesn't matter what it's called. | ||
Because when you start labeling it, the first thing that happens is people that are pro-whatever-it-is, they start telling you, no, they don't teach that. | ||
They start lying to you right off the bat. | ||
They'll change the definitions. | ||
Yes, they'll just lie to you. | ||
So they're being indoctrinated? | ||
Yeah, they're totally being indoctrinated. | ||
100% indoctrination. | ||
It is a cult, basically. | ||
Communism is a cult. | ||
The whole kit and caboodle is a cult. | ||
Well, here's an example, actually, because I just tweeted something out. | ||
I saw a tweet from the Krasensteins. | ||
For those who aren't familiar, they're like prominent liberals. | ||
And Brian said, Dear Republicans, if you think drag queens reading books about love and inclusion to your kids is bad, you might want to check out some of the verses from the Bible that your local priest is reading to them. | ||
So I responded with, OK, now try a non-theist. | ||
Adult sex performers should not be around kids. | ||
And he said, 100%, I'm not aware of any sexual performances at book readings, are you? | ||
And there actually are. | ||
They're just lying. | ||
First and foremost, drag is an adult sex performance. | ||
And they're lying to you. | ||
They are lying to you. | ||
And I'll say it again. | ||
They are lying to you. | ||
When you had these child drag queens ripping their clothes off on stage for adult gay men handing them money, they said, it's just a costume change! | ||
And I'm like, right, when the go-go dancer in states that have banned full nude stripping are dancing on the pole and then rip off their top and they're wearing a bra, it's just a costume change! | ||
No, it's sexualized adult performance. | ||
It's meant to titillate. | ||
So when you put a go-go dancer or a stripper In a book club, we would call that an adult sex performer reading to children. | ||
And we shouldn't do that. | ||
And everybody replying to that that's saying it's not sexualized, you're all lying garbage people. | ||
You're just the worst evil pieces of garbage there is. | ||
unidentified
|
We know it's sexualized when it's straight, but we don't know it's sexualized or it becomes mumbled when it's- Just because they lie. | |
When you put an alphabet soup, like LGBT, it doesn't make any sense. | ||
Why is it all of a sudden not sexualized because we're pushing a specific ideological agenda? | ||
Because all communists lie. | ||
I think a lot of it is- Hold on, Blair White tweeted, Taking kids to a drag show to teach them to respect gay people is the equivalent of taking them to a strip club to respect women. | ||
Yeah. | ||
To be fair though, isn't Blaire White being an influencer, it's not as bad obviously as Drag Queen Story Hour, but aren't you normalizing the idea of trans people almost as much if you have a trans influencer? | ||
Blaire White has every right to be on the internet and make YouTube videos. | ||
I'm not saying she doesn't, but she normalizes the idea to many. | ||
Well, some people would say normalizing the idea of being a successful transgender person and being conformed in that new identity is wrong to teach children that because it could lead them to think that. | ||
We don't think that men could become women and women could become men. | ||
But that's a totally different circumstance. | ||
Blair White being on the internet talking about You know, being Blair White, being an influencer, having ideas, is not the same as showing up in a G-string to a children's reading hour or whatever, or to a bar, telling the kids it's not going to lick itself, and then spreading your legs and thrusting your hips in front of someone's face. | ||
I think Blair's very reasonable. | ||
She'll tell you, like, I'm a man and I'm a trans woman. | ||
And she can be both at the same time. | ||
In fact, you have to be. | ||
You never stop being a man when you transition to a trans woman. | ||
You never stop. | ||
You can be both at the same time. | ||
That's very important. | ||
I guess the idea becomes, do you think she helps normalize the idea that people can transition successfully? | ||
unidentified
|
I actually just did an interview with a mom who was, she's a lifelong Democrat, like blue dog Democrat, still lives in California, and her daughter underwent a phase when she thought she was transgender. | |
Grew up like a typical young girl, like had like eight dresses around her, always wearing dresses. | ||
Very cute, very frilly. | ||
And then went on to identify as a man for about a year and a half. | ||
And that was a concern that that mom raised. | ||
So I don't think it's... Wait, but what specifically? | ||
She said, I, you know, I think my daughter watched a lot of Blair White and that this is what she she called it. | ||
Now, do I think that? | ||
I'm not opining. | ||
I'm just saying that was a that was a valid concern of a mother who You know, whose daughter underwent all of this. | ||
There is an argument. | ||
If there is an argument to be made surrounding this particular issue about Blair White or trans people, that's an issue for parents to deal with. | ||
unidentified
|
Agreed. | |
That's something for parents to deal with with their children and parents to act like children and to raise their children. | ||
Blair White has every right to get on it on YouTube and make videos if she wants. | ||
Absolutely. | ||
And to even Even discuss it in a way as if it's somehow, you know, the onus is on Blair to not do that is, in my opinion, absolutely outside of the bounds of reasonable conversation. | ||
What is not reasonable for YouTube is when they had these videos a while ago, they got in trouble for this, It was adults showing children adult toys and things like that. | ||
And there was a backlash. | ||
They were like, we're doing sex ed for kids. | ||
Like, that is not something YouTube should be recommending to kids. | ||
And now they're doing the same thing. | ||
LGBTQ content is sex ed content. | ||
And it is something the parents have to discuss. | ||
And we've talked about this. | ||
As much as they'll all try to lie about the opinions of people on this show, My attitude's always been like, if a parent decides the appropriate age for their child to start learning about these things, about different marriages, about gay, straight, sexual reproduction and things like that, the parents need to figure that stuff out. | ||
There is a difference between a parent being like, son, I want to teach you about the birds and the bees, and these schools giving kids pornography and like mentally traumatizing content and bringing in adult sex performers. | ||
That's all way over the line. | ||
unidentified
|
Did you see that little kid in, uh, I believe it was Maine, who was, uh, he went in front of his school board and read a pornographic book and was like, I found this in my library. | |
It's allegedly for kids over the age of 13. | ||
I'm 11, but I'm in the same school as 13 year olds. | ||
So I have access to it. | ||
His name's like Ziad or something. | ||
Interesting clip. | ||
Where was it? | ||
Can we find it? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, for sure. | |
Let me see if I can, uh, find, uh, I forget what his name was, but it was a Maine kid reads pornography to school board maybe. | ||
I was thinking... Oh, yeah, here it is. | ||
Knox Zajac. | ||
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
Three days ago from NY... New York Post. | ||
This is right here? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, this kid is... Eleven-year-old sixth-grader reads... It is graphic. | |
...sexually explicit book, Nick and Charlie, in front of the school board in Maine. | ||
The book was on display at his middle school library. | ||
These are the books being offered to kids in public schools. | ||
And that's... This is the problem. | ||
I have no issue with a person who... I'm not a conservative! | ||
Sorry, I'm just not. | ||
A lot of conservatives take issue with Dave Rubin. | ||
He's a gay married man. | ||
He had two kids through surrogacy. | ||
Libby, who I mention on the show frequently, is very critical of surrogacy. | ||
And my attitude is kind of like... | ||
I'm fairly neutral on surrogacy. | ||
I don't know enough about it. | ||
I don't really have a strong opinion. | ||
I think Dave will be one of the better parents that this country will ever see. | ||
I think him and his husband are going to raise two of the most well-functioning human beings this country will probably get. | ||
Because Dave is an extremely high-functioning and intelligent individual who will do a good job. | ||
And I'm not gonna make that traditional argument, it's not me, but they will lie. | ||
The left will lie and try and lump all of us in the same category and say that we're transphobic, we're homophobic, and it's like, dude, we've had multiple trans people on the show. | ||
The only weapon they have to defend pedophilia is to lie and accuse us of hating all LGBT people because we specifically call out grooming children. | ||
Everything that's a moralized argument is almost always them lying about someone else. | ||
you very rarely hear the people that are accusing, or you very rarely hear people that have been | ||
accused of being anti-trans or being homophobic or whatever. | ||
You don't hear them on these horrible triads like the Richard Spencer raging against the Jews. | ||
You don't hear that. And so they have to make stuff up because people generally aren't really repulsed | ||
by trans people. Most people are are just like, look, do your thing, live your life the way | ||
you want to live it. I'll live mine. | ||
It'll be fine behavior I was in the library and this book was out of standard. | ||
went to the GameStop and was screaming and smacking things like that aggressive | ||
behavior could come from anybody. If it was a woman they'd call her a Karen. | ||
Should we play this video? Is it really graphic? | ||
unidentified
|
There's one f-bomb I will warn you. I don't mind that just letting everybody know. | |
You're warning. No pictures. No. Alright just a warning if you have kids in the room or something. | ||
unidentified
|
I was in the library and this book was out of standard. I'd like to read you a page. | |
My back over my hips as I asked if we should take off take our clothes off and | ||
And he's saying yes before I finish my sentence. | ||
He's pulling off my t-shirt, laughing when I can't undo his shirt buttons. | ||
He's undoing my belt. | ||
I'm reaching into his bedside drawer for a condom. | ||
We're kissing. | ||
Again, we're lolling over. | ||
Obviously, you can see where this is going. | ||
I don't know if it's because we're feeling especially emotional or just tired. | ||
Or this past couple of weeks have been too much. | ||
But this reminds me so much of the first time we had sex. | ||
We were both fucking terrified. | ||
And the whole thing was kind of terrible because we didn't know what we were doing. | ||
But it was good too. | ||
So good. | ||
Because we were a mess of emotions. | ||
What book was that? | ||
Nick and Charlie? | ||
and everything felt new. | ||
So this sort of thing, this sort of feels like that. | ||
Nick touches me, like he's scared of that in a minute. | ||
What book was that? | ||
Nick and Charlie? | ||
It's like about, it's like two, it's about gay people or something? | ||
unidentified
|
Two teen boys stealing wine from their parents and proceeding to experiment sexually with one another. | |
Guys, he can't even say library properly. | ||
Like, why should he be learning about... He says library! | ||
I want to thank you, Knox, for speaking up and out. | ||
You got courage, man. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Nice job. | ||
That's brutal to have to go through that, dude. | ||
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
And I think that the dad said that this is actually not just at the younger kid's school. | ||
He has an older son who was at a high school in the area and said the book Genderqueer is allowed. | ||
Oh, I have it. | ||
It's here. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Sorry to interrupt. | ||
You were saying? | ||
unidentified
|
No, no, exactly. | |
But that's available in their high school, so it's clearly just... That's nuts, because it's like a guy putting a prosthetic penis in his mouth. | ||
Oh, I mean, I've seen the penises, but... You gotta read it. | ||
Crazy. | ||
What he read, man, that was not in school when I was in school. | ||
We had like Newberry, Amelia Bedelia and all this stuff. | ||
unidentified
|
I wasn't in school that long ago. | |
Like, I feel like, how has it changed that much? | ||
It would have been a huge deal if someone found that book in my school. | ||
Everyone would have known about it. | ||
It would have been all our parents. | ||
I would have told my parents. | ||
Everybody would have known about it. | ||
People would have lost their jobs for this kind of thing in 1987. | ||
The genderqueer book, I think most people watching the show already know what I've had to say about it, but conservatives haven't even read it. | ||
And every time I talk to some conservatives, like, oh, yeah, I know that book. | ||
I'm like, did you read it? | ||
The answer is no. | ||
And my attitude is like, this is why I am not in favor of blanket book bans, because people should be able to have access to something to understand what it is. | ||
That's totally different than if children are getting access to something. | ||
I think certain books and stuff should be restricted for children, obviously we ban porn. | ||
But this book... | ||
Is the story of the extreme psychological abuse of a young woman and how it created someone who is traumatized and needs like deep therapy. | ||
It is not this, it is not, so for a few examples for those who didn't hear this, she couldn't read till she was 12. | ||
She was pissing outside when she was a child. | ||
She was never taught how to take care of her body so she would wear old crusted pads in school and she smelled like feces to the point where she got called into the counselor and they complained and said people are complaining of your smell and you need to do something about this. | ||
So this poor young woman, hairy legs, hairy armpits, Totally unsocialized by weird hippie parents who have her peeing in the yard. | ||
And then she feels some kind of social rejection because she doesn't know how to fit in with her peers. | ||
And she writes about it. | ||
How she's like, I can't read, I smell bad, and people are being mean to me. | ||
So she's not... | ||
She's not non-binary, she's just traumatized because her parents abused her. | ||
And this book that Knox is reading, I still don't know, Nick and Charlie, about two young underage kids drinking alcohol. | ||
Is that a form of neglect? | ||
Abuse by the parents? | ||
Not that you can't, like a kid's gonna do what a kid does, but I believe if you parent the kid properly, like I didn't drink until I was 23, because my parents told me, don't do it. | ||
It's horrible for you. | ||
I tasted it once, it tasted disgusting. | ||
I was like, all right, I'm not gonna do it. | ||
unidentified
|
I think you might be in the minority on that. | |
That's unfortunate. | ||
You know what's kind of weird? | ||
I gotta say, it's kind of weird that this Nick and Charlie book's written by a woman. | ||
I just think that's weird. | ||
Maybe that's just me. | ||
Like, if it was written by a gay man writing about his experience growing up and discovering he was gay and stuff, I'd be like, I get it. | ||
But it's written by a woman who is like, it almost seems like some kind of weird I don't know. | ||
She's sitting there imagining what it must be like to be a teenage boy hooking up with another teenage boy. | ||
It's just weird. | ||
You think that their mentality—because this should not be in a school. | ||
A book about two young, underage kids having sex with each other should not be in a government school, in my opinion. | ||
But you think the argument's like, hey, there's so many books anyway, we can't keep count, and it's all on the internet anyway. | ||
If they want to read it, it's there. | ||
unidentified
|
I've heard that argument a lot of times like if kids want to get access to this stuff they're gonna get access to it so we might as well have it be like the Pulitzer Prize winning version of it. | |
Access to information because of the internet is a big issue I think when an age where kids could get on the internet could be a big issue because if they could access the internet they could get crazier stuff than anything that's written in this book. | ||
I don't know what about TikTok? | ||
The woman who wrote this is like 28 or 29 years old. | ||
Yeah, so we see videos of TikTok of crazier stuff. | ||
People are going to drag queen story hours and there have been some crazy videos that they uploaded recently of some things in England where they're like tripping in front of babies. | ||
Like doing sex performance moves in front of babies. | ||
I'm not even exaggerating. | ||
It's like a dozen babies all crawling on the ground and they're like... | ||
unidentified
|
Remember when we used to do that for, like, the Teletubbies? | |
When you were like, oh my gosh, the Teletubbies! | ||
And now it's like, oh my gosh, a stripper! | ||
For babies! | ||
You think the Teletubbies were grooming kids? | ||
unidentified
|
For what? | |
That was after my kid time. | ||
I was out of the house. | ||
I just thought they were so weird. | ||
And brainwashy. | ||
And like... | ||
I don't know. | ||
making these weird beeping sounds and like, gyrating back and forth, like, what is this, God? | ||
unidentified
|
It was weird. | |
I don't know, I was mesmerized by it. | ||
The scariest thing was, no, it was the flaming baby head. | ||
The burning baby head that would be in the sky going, ah, and you're like, ah. | ||
No, Teletubbies was fine, I don't know. | ||
I just don't understand why you do all this weird stuff for kids, where it's like, think about the pre-television era. | ||
What were children seeing all day every day in their entertainment? | ||
A human being, telling a story, reading a book with very few pictures. | ||
And then when TV comes around, all of a sudden you got like Snuffleupagus and like Big Bird and weird creepy monster things going like, and the kids are like, I identify with that. | ||
unidentified
|
There was a time where you had... That's how we got furries. | |
Sesame Street, wow. | ||
Parents put kids in front of TVs and turn on Looney Tunes, and then these kids start identifying with the social interactions of cartoon animals. | ||
And that's why, when you look at pictures of furries, they don't dress up like actual animals. | ||
They dress up like Bugs Bunny kind of animals, with big eyes and they look like cartoon characters. | ||
unidentified
|
That's sort of the anime culture, too, though. | |
Furry? | ||
I don't know about that. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh my gosh, yeah. | |
I mean, we were just at Katsu-Kan. | ||
My team and I, well I didn't go, but my team went and we were all discussing everything. | ||
It's fascinating to see the anime culture and A, the inroads it has into grooming, actually. | ||
What is Katsu-Kan? | ||
I'm sorry. | ||
unidentified
|
I don't know, not to be offensive. | |
It's just like a convention of anime lover nerdy people. | ||
It felt very harmless when I was there until I learned how the inroads of it. | ||
I mean, that can take you from something very harmless like dressing up like a furry or dressing up like an anime character. | ||
But furry is not cosplay. | ||
unidentified
|
Yes and no. | |
Some of them have those conventions just like that. | ||
I mean, they're not the same thing. | ||
Furry is very different from cosplay, but there's probably some overlap for sure. | ||
Some furries cosplay, some don't. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, there was a cosplaying furry at my high school. | |
Yeah, I mean, there's for some reason furry Nazis. | ||
Like, they wear fur suits and they get like, they dress up like, whatever, man, I don't know. | ||
I was fortunate to grow up in the era of reading Rainbow with LeVar Burton. | ||
What's up, LeVar? | ||
One of the best, I mean, just easy shows where he just reads a book, or actually a kid would read the book, and then Mr. Rogers, where it's a guy, a genuine dude, like, sitting there, looking at the camera, giving you encouragement, and then educating you by reading you books and telling you about how to tie your shoes and, like, things, you know? | ||
Things that kids may not know. | ||
unidentified
|
I thought, I thought that, like, I was thinking this and I couldn't type it out. | |
It wasn't, it wasn't, it's not a typable thing, but like, until you're able as a human to create order in, in reality around you, I don't think you should have the ability to cut yourself up or, or sterilize yourself. | ||
And like, I just assumed every kid eventually will get to a place where they can create order in reality. | ||
I don't think that's the case though. | ||
You need a good, strong parental unit to help you learn how to do that. | ||
I think we're seeing how broken culture and society is because of us being cut from our roots. | ||
You know, what is it? | ||
Cut flower politics or whatever that Dennis Prager calls it? | ||
You pluck the flower from its roots and it looks beautiful but then eventually withers and decays. | ||
And so we've been severed from the roots that have made this country an amazing place and so now we're starting to wither and decay. | ||
You know, I would like to do a Tim Cass show. | ||
If you want to do a show where I read books to kids. | ||
And talk to them and encourage them. | ||
I think that's, we need more of that in society. | ||
Ian's kids show? | ||
It doesn't have to be to kids either. | ||
Ian Crosland Story Hour? | ||
I actually have, I did the Phantom Tollbooth. | ||
I have like a 19 video series on YouTube on my playlists where I read the Phantom Tollbooth. | ||
It's one of my most popular, it's my most popular playlist by far. | ||
No, we should do a Go Go Dancer Story Hour. | ||
Yeah, we need more wholesome, like just genuine encouragement for children. | ||
The left would love it. | ||
You'd make tons of money. | ||
They're totally into that stuff, right? | ||
There's a moneymaker right there. | ||
Go Go Dancers story hour. | ||
There's no difference. | ||
There's literally none. | ||
Go Go Dancers do not get naked. | ||
They dance on stage, they strut around for tips, and they remove parts of clothing, but they still keep their undergarments on. | ||
Is it just too, like, is it just have we evolved past showing kids puppets and telling them you're okay and being cool? | ||
Is that just no more, no, give it up, like, forget about it, move on? | ||
unidentified
|
I think your point actually just goes to my point that I made earlier, which is like, the go-go dancers would somehow be dubbed inappropriate because you're sexualizing women because it's a straight thing. | |
But, you know, you get into, you make it LGBT. | ||
Male go-go dancers. | ||
I don't even know. | ||
You're not explaining it. | ||
Only if the males kiss each other, though. | ||
Magic Mike kiss. | ||
There you go. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, then it's not really, then it's considered appropriate. | |
Like, I don't even want to. | ||
unidentified
|
Wait, wait. | |
I don't even want to read other people's kiss. | ||
Two lady go-go dancers, but they kiss before. | ||
unidentified
|
Then it would be appropriate, according to our modern society. | |
The reaction I just got from mentioning, talking, reading to kids is like, it's like this, don't mess with other people's kids. | ||
Like, I don't even want to get involved now. | ||
I don't even want to touch it. | ||
Like, let those kids do it on their own. | ||
I don't want to help society. | ||
Who said that? | ||
The whole vibe is like, it's just so dirty about like... Ian's feelings got hurt because nobody supported him. | ||
I don't know, man. | ||
Why are people not more interested in helping children? | ||
I don't know. | ||
They would talk about the problems all day. | ||
Where's the solutions? | ||
I don't think anybody had a negative view of you doing a story hour like we're like Ian's kids show. | ||
You don't get it. | ||
You know, I like if you want to be a story hour, go to a public library. | ||
I'm sure if you advertised it, people would love to show up. | ||
You have a lot of insightful things. | ||
Just don't talk about drugs in front of the kids. | ||
Ian's going to be like sitting in a chair and be like, all right, this book called Pinocchio and it kind of reminds me of the time I did DMT. | ||
Do you kids ever do DMT? | ||
unidentified
|
No. | |
What's DMT? | ||
Oh, let me tell you all about it. | ||
One day when you're an adult, you're going to do a bunch of psychedelics. | ||
That's a good Caskazzle bit, actually. | ||
Let's do it for Caskazzle. | ||
Ian's story hour. | ||
Ian, it would be funny if you tried to look like a drag because, I mean, you already have long hair and then you did a drag story. | ||
Dude, I did. | ||
I was in Hamlet in college and I played Laertes and I was getting ready for the show and putting makeup on. | ||
I was like, I would make a hot chick. | ||
Looking at my jawline, I look good. | ||
I had long hair, I was back in a ponytail. | ||
You should, if you converted to trans, maybe you'd be able to do it convincingly. | ||
Converted? | ||
Or, what is it, transitioned? | ||
I have played women on stage before. | ||
One woman in one show. | ||
It was awesome. | ||
I think there's a picture of it out there. | ||
Anyway, man, I feel like, I think part of the issue is, there is some truth to the social component, socialization, that the left is making the argument for, that conservatives actually argued for in the past. | ||
And I think what we're seeing is information technology has shattered the brains of humanity. | ||
Like I was saying before, if you go back to the 1800s, what's a kid's morning entertainment? | ||
Get up and help with the chickens. | ||
Get up and help with the cows. | ||
So they're not seeing weird rabbits on TV going, I'm a rabbit! | ||
unidentified
|
And the kid being like, haha, rabbit, that's me, I'm a rabbit too. | |
But then we started doing all this weird stuff. | ||
And here's the thing about this, like, early entertainment was, like, radio stuff. | ||
And so what was it? | ||
It was stories. | ||
So these kids are being told, be a soldier, be a cop, be a doctor, be a firefighter, be a superhero, be Superman. | ||
And then eventually it turns into, like, wacky, broken brain families, Peter Griffin. | ||
I mean, obviously not for kids, but this is what society starts making. | ||
Somebody superchatted Uncle Grandpa. | ||
You guys ever watch that show? | ||
unidentified
|
No. | |
It's weird. | ||
Uncle, grandpa. | ||
Do you know what that means? | ||
If your uncle is your grandfather? | ||
That means your dad's brother is also your dad's father. | ||
Meaning that your grandpa had sex with his sister. | ||
Or his daughter. | ||
Or his daughter. | ||
unidentified
|
That would be his daughter, right? | |
So wait, if your grandfather- Wait, wait. | ||
It's like I don't want to know the answer. | ||
If your grandfather is also your uncle, that would mean your great- Wait, hold on. | ||
Is Eli trying to figure this one out? | ||
It's complicated. | ||
Is it possible? | ||
Yes, it is. | ||
I think it's something like, if your grandfather is your uncle, then it's got to be your mom, I think. | ||
That would mean that your dad is your brother, if your grandfather is your uncle. | ||
Where'd you hear that saying, Tim? | ||
Uncle Grandpa was a show on Cartoon Network. | ||
Your dad's your brother, right? | ||
Your dad's your brother. | ||
That's what that would mean. | ||
unidentified
|
What? | |
If your dad is your brother, then your grandpa's your uncle. | ||
Or is your mom your sister? | ||
Yeah, it would be different for different sexes. | ||
That's right, you're right. | ||
Yeah, if a dude bangs his daughter, he's... Wait. | ||
unidentified
|
No, no. | |
I don't think we're supposed to know. | ||
This is too dirty. | ||
unidentified
|
I was gonna say, I don't think you want to know the answer. | |
But if your mom's your sister, then then your grandpa's your uncle. | ||
unidentified
|
I did see a video the other day of some woman jumping into a man's arms and you're like, oh, you know, it's gonna be some... The person's mother's brother and father. | |
Ah. | ||
Okay, so that means a guy would bang his mom and have a daughter and then he would bang his daughter and would be your uncle grandpa. | ||
unidentified
|
And this is on Cartoon Network? | |
It was a show on Cartoon Network. | ||
I don't know if it's still there anymore, but like... No, it stopped in 2017. | ||
Yeah. | ||
So is that it? | ||
You'd be a person's mother, brother, a person's mother's brother and father. | ||
So that would, brother and father, be like, yeah, yeah, a guy, a guy. | ||
So it has to be the brother. | ||
So a mother. | ||
Has a child with her son. | ||
Then the son has a child with his child, a female, and has you, and now he's your grandfather and your uncle. | ||
Gross. | ||
Yeah. | ||
And your dad? | ||
Gross. | ||
One or the other, probably. | ||
unidentified
|
He would be your dad, too, wouldn't he? | |
Brother and father? | ||
Or no, I guess he doesn't need to be your father. | ||
Was it like... Science, everybody! | ||
Science! | ||
We figured it out. | ||
Was the show sexual, or was it just like a funny name? | ||
It was just weird. | ||
It was a weird, absurdist kids' show. | ||
But that's the interesting thing about kids' shows, is they... Look, the kids' shows I grew up on, Spider-Man, X-Men, Batman... Batman the Animated Series. | ||
Think about what this show is. | ||
Sure, it's freaky, but the first animated show to ever win an Emmy, I think it was, was the Mr. Freeze episode. | ||
Is that it? | ||
Mr. Freeze? | ||
Really? | ||
Yeah, so, I love this story, man. | ||
Super-villains used to be one-dimensional. | ||
Yeah, I'm going to take over the world! | ||
And then Batman's like, I will stop you. | ||
But with Freeze, he was a scientist whose wife had a terminal illness, and she was dying, and he was working on cryogenics. | ||
So, is it cryogenics? | ||
Cryogenics, where you freeze body parts to live longer. | ||
So he freezes her to preserve her life while he tries working on a cure, but he's embezzling corporate funds to fund his research to save his wife. | ||
When they find out and they come in, they're like, you've been stealing money from the company for this project and shut it down. | ||
He's like, no, my wife, she'll die. | ||
You can't, you can't turn it off. | ||
And then the bodyguards smack, they get into a fight. | ||
Freeze gets thrown into the machine or whatever and gets doused in the cryochemicals, lowering his body temperature and then forcing him to have to live in lower temperature. | ||
And so basically Freeze is a villain, is Sad story. | ||
His motivation is he needs money and resources to save his dying wife. | ||
He's not trying to take over the world. | ||
And so Batman is like, it's kind of sad. | ||
Before that, villains were always, you know, not always like you had the Frank Miller stuff and you had a bunch of other interesting comics in the 80s, which led to this moment. | ||
And then I think it was the first cartoon. | ||
So I grew up on that. | ||
I'm like, watching this, I'm like, wow, villains aren't one-dimensional, you know? | ||
And then with Spider-Man, you know, it's similar stories, but still a little one-dimensional hokey villain stuff. | ||
Kids these days aren't getting any of that. | ||
It's all weird garbled nonsense. | ||
I mean, don't get me wrong, Looney Tunes made very little sense too, and I think that stuff messes with kids' minds. | ||
I'm not kidding, I think kids should not watch that stuff. | ||
What about South Park? | ||
South Park's not for kids. | ||
I agree with you. | ||
It's cultural satire and comedy. | ||
It's for adults. | ||
But I think kids have watched it. | ||
I watched it when I was a kid. | ||
And it's warping. | ||
That's very mind-warping. | ||
But here's the thing. | ||
My parents had a parental control on the cable, and so I didn't watch South Park all the time. | ||
My parents wouldn't let me watch Beavis and Budden. | ||
Like, we could watch it sometimes. | ||
This is what parenting is. | ||
My parents would be like, okay, I'm gonna let you watch one episode of Beavis and Butt-It because my mom would, like, know this particular episode wasn't that bad. | ||
And then we would watch and we would find it funny and stuff. | ||
And there's a disclaimer, like, do not do this stuff at home because some kid burned his house down from watching Beavis and Butt-It or something. | ||
I was, when I was very young, my parents wouldn't let me watch MTV. | ||
It was, you know, the new thing. | ||
And I was, you know, they were like, no, I don't want you to watch. | ||
I've seen this, blah, blah, blah. | ||
My mom used to believe that, like, that she believed that, uh, she believed in the, the subliminal messages in, in, in Judas Priest stuff. | ||
She's like, you don't, I don't want you to listen to Judas Priest. | ||
I heard that man say, do it. | ||
I was, we were banned from watching Three Stooges cause it was too violent. | ||
Tom and Jerry, cause it was too violent. | ||
unidentified
|
I was banned from Powderpuff Girls for the exact same reason. | |
I feel like what you were talking about, Tim, is the Teletubbies and stuff like that and the cartoons are really kind of more geared towards younger people and when you're talking about like the bad guys that Batman was fighting, the more complex characters like Mr. Freeze and stuff, if you look at your average Environmentalist, you know, they have a similar outlook to Thanos, you know get there's too many people. | ||
There's two we have to get rid of people We have to have population go down We have to control the population and if you know, there's not enough resources on earth and we blah blah blah your average socialist Environmentalist is just Thanos without the glove. | ||
Is this Thanos from the movie he actually wanted to kill half the people for population control? | ||
He wanted to kill half of the people in the universe. | ||
This is the real Thanos. | ||
This is the Infinity Gauntlet where the entire movie was derived from. | ||
This is the book. | ||
And in this, he doesn't care about population. | ||
All he cares about is pleasing a woman. | ||
That's what the death. | ||
It wasn't even a woman death. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Lady death. | ||
He wants to please her. | ||
So he kills half the universe, but this is, and it doesn't even care. | ||
We got to make sure you clarify. | ||
Not a woman, the entity death. | ||
Yeah. | ||
But he's in love with her. | ||
The idea is her name is lady death, but it's the entity of death. | ||
It's like to say it's a woman. | ||
People might get the wrong idea. | ||
Okay. | ||
It's lady death. | ||
We'll call her lady death. | ||
And she has the powers of death. | ||
It's, it's, it's the death God. | ||
And after he kills half the universe, she doesn't care. | ||
And so he's like, well, now he's like in an existential crisis of like, lost. | ||
And the whole episode is, the whole series, you gotta read this series, is him like, being lost, being nihilistic, and having infinite power. | ||
It's an excellent, excellent series. | ||
There was some good stuff they wrote in comics when they started getting past the one-dimensional era and the weird era, like Superman could fire little Supermans from his hand. | ||
Do you guys know that? | ||
Yes. | ||
Superman had the ability to shoot smaller Supermans from his hand. | ||
They were just wilding, man. | ||
They were just, you know, they were doing acid, right? | ||
Whatever they felt like. | ||
They're just like, whatever, man. | ||
Like, think about Superman. | ||
Freeze breath and laser eyes? | ||
Like, it doesn't even make sense in any way. | ||
I was thinking, did it? | ||
He used to not be able to fly? | ||
He could only jump? | ||
Yeah, he could only jump. | ||
And I think they, they, they didn't, he didn't, like, in the early days, his powers were kind of random and all over the place. | ||
Like the firing small Supermans from his hand. | ||
That's a real thing. | ||
We're going to go to Super Chats, still in about 10 minutes, but I keep thinking about Andrew Tate. | ||
I keep thinking about him. | ||
Let's pull it up, baby. | ||
Here's the story, man. | ||
Andrew Tate has lung cancer. | ||
What leaked medical documents reveal. | ||
Now, they're saying, does he? | ||
In the report, people are saying that he does. | ||
They say he has lung cancer. | ||
He may have lung cancer, according to a letter written by his doctor in Dubai. | ||
The letter from Tate's general practitioner at King's College Hospital in United Arab Emirates suggests he be repatriated to the Gulf nation immediately. | ||
The letter and medical reports in English appear to be translated into Romanian. | ||
Tate is currently in custody in Bucharest on allegations of rape and trafficking. | ||
Hold on there a minute. | ||
He's never been charged with any crime, which is the creepiest and weirdest thing about the... They're like, when we suspect you of a crime, we lock you up for six months. | ||
Who is, um, the information coming from that he has- His doctor. | ||
His doctor. | ||
Yeah. | ||
But it's leaked, you said, right? | ||
It's a leak, yeah. | ||
And it says he may have lung cancer? | ||
Yeah, there was a scan that found a spot on his lung and they need to get him in because they think he has lung cancer. | ||
I just want to be careful here because I know there's a lot of misinformation from both sides of fans and detractors of Tate. | ||
He is currently 36. | ||
I know he smokes cigars, but people getting lung cancer in people younger than 45 is extremely rare. | ||
He's in very good shape. | ||
Although he does smoke, it would be very rare for him. | ||
Sure, and you know what? | ||
Maybe it's fake news, but he's not been charged with any crime. | ||
So he should not be in custody until they charge him with a crime. | ||
Yeah, do the right thing, guys. | ||
Release him, because this is going to be a stain on Romania for a century if you don't let that guy go. | ||
I already, you know, I was talking before about how I loved Brasov and Bucharest, and they were great places, and now I'm not sure I ever want to go back to a place like this. | ||
unidentified
|
It's disgusting. | |
Look, man, you can criticize Andrew Tate for a whole lot of things, and don't look at me, I don't know, but to detain a guy for six months without charge or trial is just like, screw that place. | ||
If he's actually the villain you think, it's going to show itself. | ||
You don't need to What are they doing? | ||
When these women came out and said like, hey, we're not victims. They're lying. The judge goes nah, you're brainwashed. | ||
Like what? | ||
Dude, if a witness statement isn't good enough and you're claiming the witness testifying on his behalf is | ||
brainwashed There's no justice system | ||
I'm not particularly sympathetic to Tate's stories. | ||
Like, I think that he might have broken Romanian law. | ||
I think it's probably, it's actually likely that he broke Romanian law in the whole, what is it? | ||
The sweet boy or whatever. | ||
Lover boy. | ||
Lover boy thing. | ||
Charge him with a crime. | ||
Yeah, exactly. | ||
unidentified
|
100%. | |
That's exactly where I was going. | ||
Even if, you know, even if he did do something or if they suspect him, charge him. | ||
So that way it's above board. | ||
and and allow the Romanian justice system to take you know take its course but charge him just | ||
holding him you know let him go yeah or let him go that's fine too. I think a part of this story | ||
is that Andrew Tate is becoming less and less relevant as he's being held longer and longer | ||
in jail because he's unable to produce content and as that progresses his relevancy decreases. | ||
I think this might just be a stunt to try to keep his name in the media and the news and to elevate the story more to try to help him get out. | ||
It did concern me that this is a desperate attempt to get him out of prison. | ||
It's a tension because it's diminishing because he can't make content unless people are covering it. | ||
I don't care if there is a 0.001% chance this is true. | ||
He should not be held without charge. | ||
And so it doesn't matter if they need to or don't. | ||
This is all the more reason? | ||
Like, think about how insane this is. | ||
If you're suggesting the story's fake, that would mean that Tate's team is like, okay, he's being charged with that, he's been held in custody without charges. | ||
What scheme can we come up with to get him released? | ||
It's like... | ||
Holy crap, he shouldn't be in any custody at all without charges. | ||
unidentified
|
I shouldn't need to do this. | |
Definitely, he should not be in custody and held- being held without charges. | ||
So why would they- so the idea- I'll put it this way. | ||
If they are faking this story to try and get him out of jail, good for them. | ||
Okay, if the ends justify the means. | ||
unidentified
|
That's very American revolutionary of you, my man. | |
The ends justify the means in that the bad guy in this story is Romania, not the people trying to free the guy who's being unjustly held. | ||
I agree that he is being unjustly held, but just specifically on the story here of him having lung cancer. | ||
If a woman is kidnapped, Is it like, I don't know if we should use violence against this guy because the ends don't justify the means? | ||
Like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. | ||
The bad guy is the person who kidnapped the person, not the person trying to figure out a way... If there's a guy who's holding someone captive in his basement, and we're like, the only way to free this person is to sneak in in the middle of the night, break the window, unlock the... Whoa, that's breaking and entering, dude. | ||
The ends don't justify the means. | ||
This is different. | ||
If they have dirt on him, they need to bring the charges, and he needs to be brought forth to the judge, and they need to show that evidence. | ||
I think in Romania, I'm not completely familiar with their legal system, but they have X amount of time to hold him while they look for the evidence, which is weird, and I just think they do it differently in Romania, too, which doesn't make it right. | ||
Yeah, apparently, detention was extended 30 days, three days ago, they said, last week. | ||
They just extended it. | ||
So, like, he doesn't even know when they're going to release him. | ||
unidentified
|
They're just like, This lesion on his lung, by the way, is from March of 2022. | |
He got a health screening back then, and he was reassured at the time that the mass was likely benign, but is advised to get further tests. | ||
This could be like the Joe Biden, you know, benign skin cancer. | ||
We absolutely, he should have more tests. | ||
I just think, look man, If Andrew Tate is innocent of these accusations, they shouldn't be holding him. | ||
And if he is guilty and these charges, these accusations are correct, they are losing the prosecution against him by doing this. | ||
They are making themselves look evil and making him look like the victim every day they're holding him. | ||
So the only outcome of this for Romania is net negative. | ||
The only logical solution is to release the guy. | ||
They shouldn't have locked him up. | ||
If they didn't have the goods to begin with, they shouldn't have locked him up. | ||
And it shouldn't be like, oh, we're locking him up to find the goods now. | ||
I don't know. | ||
Is that the way the legal system works in Romania? | ||
Yes. | ||
When you're accused of a crime, they will detain you and lock you up and then start looking for evidence. | ||
That's insane. | ||
They said Ceausescu was bad. | ||
I don't live in Romania. | ||
I don't agree with their way of doing things. | ||
I think it is... We in America, we have the right to a speedy trial. | ||
We have a right to a jury of our peers. | ||
We have a right to confront our accusers. | ||
And in Romania, they're doing none of that. | ||
They're just like, nah, lock them up. | ||
Extended period of time. | ||
Yeah, that's wrong. | ||
And they're losing on it because on the world stage, as much as the corporate press and their weirdo cultists are going to be like, Andrew Tate's bad. | ||
Sure. | ||
But they're not going to get someone like me. | ||
And I'm ready to be like, well, he's got a bunch of really awful videos. | ||
Maybe these stories are true. | ||
I don't care if the stories are true at this point. | ||
If you have not charged him and you don't have the goods to charge him, detaining him makes you look like the villain. | ||
Innocent until proven guilty. | ||
Oh, absolutely. | ||
Could he be extradited by the U.S. | ||
government? | ||
I think they're doing this in Romania. | ||
They're not, like, trying to bring him here on things illegally. | ||
They're trying to charge him in Romania. | ||
Could the US government be like, we demand you release him back to the United States? | ||
He's a US citizen? | ||
Is he a U.S. | ||
citizen? | ||
I think he is. | ||
Assuming that he is, could the government do something like that? | ||
Like you're holding an American guy in a detention that's unconstitutional in the United States? | ||
Let him go? | ||
The U.S. | ||
won't do that. | ||
They'll allow the country to go through their justice system. | ||
A friend of mine, Randy, was held in the Czech Republic. | ||
on trumped up murder charges. | ||
Because some kid jumped up on stage and he pushed him off. | ||
Wait, who did? | ||
Randy Blythe from Limit God. | ||
He wrote a book about it. | ||
It was six, seven years ago. | ||
He was held in the Czech Republic. | ||
It might even be longer than six, seven years ago, but he had to deal with all their issues. | ||
Holy shit. | ||
What's that? | ||
The Daily Wire sold 100,000 chocolate bars at 8.47pm. | ||
Just during the episode? | ||
For all time. | ||
In 12 hours. | ||
12 hours. | ||
They sold 100,000 bars of chocolate. | ||
For all time. | ||
In 12 hours. | ||
12 hours. | ||
They sold 100,000 bars of chocolate. | ||
Wow. | ||
unidentified
|
Damn! | |
Are they selling them by individual bars? | ||
We need to get on this game! | ||
Yeah, dude. | ||
Tap in, man. | ||
Jeremy got all the connections. | ||
They must have made a couple million bucks already. | ||
Let's do a hair care product, man. | ||
100,000 bars. | ||
Ian's hair care? | ||
Yeah, let's roll. | ||
I mean, I'll do it with you if you want to. | ||
100,000 bars? | ||
Yeah, but how much are they selling them for? | ||
Let me check. | ||
Wait, what? | ||
Uh-oh. | ||
unidentified
|
I'm getting some weird security restriction. | |
I think we need to get in the beanie game before we get in the hair product game. | ||
We're working on it. | ||
A four pack is 25 bucks. | ||
unidentified
|
All right. | |
So we're talking about like what? | ||
$25. | ||
It's like six bucks a bar. | ||
Yeah. | ||
A little bit more. | ||
That's before taxes, I imagine. | ||
$6 per bar. | ||
All right. | ||
I don't care what anyone says. | ||
Jeremy won the competition. | ||
The culture war is over. | ||
Jeremy Boring won the culture war. | ||
Between Noel's book with no words in it and Jeremy's razors and the chocolate bars. | ||
If you buy a 24-pack, it's a hundred bucks. | ||
Right. | ||
So a bit cheaper, a little bit more than four bucks. | ||
How much is that Mr. Beast bar? | ||
Oh yeah, that's called Feastables, right? | ||
Feastables is pretty popular. | ||
He wrote, Daily Wire is breaking the cycle of lose, bitch, and boycott, and is instead creating actual alternatives. | ||
Feastables, Jimmy, where's your favicon? | ||
I still get the global icon. | ||
You need a cool favicon, man. | ||
Favicon. | ||
Man, we got our coffee coming soon, but we're sitting here trying to get this thing launched since December, and then the company that we work with is like, it'll be done in seven days, and then they come back to us after we sign, and they're like, six weeks, and we're like, what? | ||
Whatever, it still is one of the best companies we've found in terms of the product, the freshness, the delivery, all the things they can do. | ||
And so we're like, how did Jeremy do this in 12 hours? | ||
Or not even in 12 hours, in like six hours. | ||
Like we're trying to get... When you got it, you got it. | ||
He's on sentry duty right now. | ||
If he sees a company like just obliterate their product with wokeness, he's like, call him. | ||
Make the call. | ||
Jeremy, this better be some good chocolate. | ||
Give me the nuts. | ||
Give me the nuts. | ||
I want the almonds. | ||
Yep. | ||
All right, let's go to Super Chats! | ||
If you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends, and become a member at TimCast.com to support our work directly. | ||
We, uh, man, we've been ready to launch the coffee brand for a long time. | ||
We've got the company building out, uh, we're working on the contract for building out the coffee shop, and it just takes so long. | ||
This is ridiculous. | ||
Man, it's frustrating, too. | ||
As much as I'm like, it's really amazing that Daily Wire pulled this off, it is frustrating to be like, yo, we've been trying to do this coffee thing for a long time. | ||
Someone asked in the comments if Jeremy is being mean in this situation. | ||
Yes, he is. | ||
How's he being mean? | ||
Well, because he's making fun of Hershey's to make a point like, yo, this is reality, bro. | ||
And I think people will be like, hey, but he's not being cruel. | ||
He's not saying Hershey, you disgusting, awful, evil. | ||
He's saying to you, if you don't like them, I got a candy bar for you right here. | ||
The website's called I Hate Hershey, so that's mean. | ||
I don't think so. | ||
I hate you, I hate Tim, I hate... I disagree. | ||
unidentified
|
What? | |
I don't think it's mean to say you hate somebody. | ||
Mean would be when you seek to inflict emotional harm on someone to them. | ||
I think that's cruelty. | ||
Anyway, I don't want to talk. | ||
If me and Phil were talking, and I said, Phil, I hate John Doe. | ||
I'm not being mean to John Doe. | ||
John Doe doesn't even know I said it. | ||
But if you made a website, Ihatejohndoe.com, and then sold products. | ||
But they're not saying it to Hershey. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
They're not being mean to Hershey's. | ||
They're just saying it loudly right in front of Hershey's. | ||
Hershey's is gonna be okay. | ||
unidentified
|
I don't know. | |
I'm not confident that Hershey's has feelings to her. | ||
Up for debate? | ||
Corporations are not people? | ||
Aren't they like even owned by like Mars or something? | ||
Some massive faceless corporation? | ||
I think Hershey will be fine with their website. | ||
You know what we should do? | ||
We should create an AI for every corporation so Hershey's can have their feelings hurt. | ||
I am upset that people are saying mean things about me. | ||
All right, here we go. | ||
What do we got? | ||
Katauth Swiss says, can we keep the cancer and get rid of Biden? | ||
Okay, that's a good one. | ||
I want to figure out a way to make that happen. | ||
All right. | ||
I'm not your buddy guy. | ||
Always with the first Super Chats here. | ||
He says, Tim, check this out. | ||
Douglas Murray nuked the mainstream media during his monk debates here in Toronto, Canada this past November. | ||
Very cool. | ||
Carrington Cox says, no news with the Tyree Nichols affair, rumor going around, but I'm going fishing with a buddy from high school, now an MPD investigator. | ||
Interesting. | ||
Comrade Nikolai says, hey Tim and crew, anyone else think Biden is definitely on his way out before end of term one and Kamala gets shoehorned in? | ||
I don't think he'd make it past the second term. He's 80 now and with cancer with cancer like you | ||
know these little topical treatment type cancers but he's getting old and uh I think he'd be 85 or | ||
86 by the end of his second term if he chose to run again. | ||
I do not think there is yeah but it's a it's not the bad cancer. | ||
Like, he's got cancer. | ||
And it's the well, yeah, benign is the good cancer. | ||
And no, there's no good cancer. | ||
There's malignant and benign, but neither is good. | ||
But the malignant ones are cancerous. | ||
The benign ones are cancerous. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh, right. | |
So there's no such thing as a better cancer. | ||
So it's like you have cancer. | ||
It's bad. | ||
Yeah, this is the which-bullet-would-you-rather-get-shot-with question. | ||
Neither. | ||
I don't want to get shot. | ||
But a little bit of skin cancer is way less bad than brain cancer. | ||
There's the lethal cancer and the non-lethal cancer, though. | ||
If a crazy person was staring me in the face with a Barrett M82 or a Ruger 10-22 and said, you get to choose, I'd be like, well, I guess I have to choose the Ruger 10-22. | ||
I mean, yes, but that's... I think it's like a blitter BB gun. | ||
It'll explode if the .50 BMG were to hit you. | ||
Because if you get, you know, you don't want brain cancer or lung cancer, but if you get a little... | ||
I literally, I literally told you earlier that my dad died of skin cancer. | ||
You're not going to convince me that a little cancer is okay. | ||
unidentified
|
You're talking to the wrong dude. | |
Was he taking chemotherapy? | ||
Well, there was, there was, uh, there was therapy that I'm not going to get too deep into it, but he did go through, he went through, uh, um, uh, therapy and stuff like that. | ||
Um, but he didn't catch it until it was too late. | ||
He should've got it. | ||
He should've got it taken care of far earlier. | ||
With my mom, I conversation she and I have a lot because she's been diagnosed with like melanoma for whatever it was for like 15, 14 years. | ||
I'm like, dude, it's your diet. | ||
Get the dairy out of the fridge. | ||
Stop eating meat every night. | ||
Let your body heal. | ||
You know, that's that's don't take weird pharmaceutical chemicals that you don't know what they do. | ||
I would I would I recommend people listen to their oncologist. | ||
Agreed. | ||
Let's read some more what we got here. | ||
Raymond G. Stanley Jr. with his gold jewel-encrusted beanie says, | ||
Tim, another good Culture War. | ||
Thoroughly enjoyed the new show. | ||
Pete seems like a real nice dude. | ||
Also, I got to acknowledge Phil has been killing it. | ||
Thank you. | ||
Indeed. | ||
Yeah, check out the Culture War podcast on Apple and Spotify | ||
and wherever you get your podcasts. | ||
And it's at youtube.com slash timcast. | ||
Talking with Pete was really, really great. | ||
It's the first interview he's done. | ||
And it's been like a year and a half since he was removed from the band, replaced. | ||
And so I reached out, I was like, would you want to talk about it now? | ||
And he was like, yeah, I'm down. | ||
Let's have a conversation about how this all went down and what it means. | ||
And I think it's an important conversation. | ||
Because one of the important takeaways is how many people... This is the big takeaway from the show, in my opinion. | ||
We used to be a culture of, I am Spartacus. | ||
No, I am Spartacus. | ||
No, I am Spartacus. | ||
Now we're a culture of, that's Spartacus right there. | ||
That's him. | ||
No, no, he's Spartacus. | ||
Don't look at me. | ||
I'll do whatever you say. | ||
All of these people fearing the government and the culture cult are standing up and going, that's Spartacus. | ||
Arrest him. | ||
Arrest him. | ||
Leave me alone. | ||
I'm scared. | ||
That's kind of a terrifying thought, to be honest. | ||
Every single story I hear about someone standing up and saying, I'm Spartacus is followed by, and then everyone around me patted me on the back and said, thank you for being our pariah. | ||
And I was just like, geez, man, no one defended you. | ||
Nobody stood with you. | ||
Nobody linked arms. | ||
Nobody's nobody. | ||
So I've gotten, I was in positions to be considered canceled multiple times because I have never been all that careful with things that I say. | ||
And no one stands up and says, oh, hey, you should, you know, the people coming to your defense, they're not running and they're not coming. | ||
And everyone is looking to keep themselves, you know, keep their own head above water. | ||
unidentified
|
I always think about that with moms that speak out or even that little kid that spoke out at a school board meeting. | |
Like, it's so awesome that he did it. | ||
And it's great that someone gives him praise, but it is always one off little Internet people instead of You know, the actual community around him being there, being a part of it. | ||
Instead, they're like, oh, sorry, like that upset the school board. | ||
I think I'm just going to stay away. | ||
I've had a ton of people in the metal community that have come to me and say, hey, you know, I just want to, like Tim says, you know, he gets people to talk to him and, you know, they're just like, they won't say anything in public or whatever. | ||
And it happens frequently, you know, oh, you know, I agree with you, but I can't say this or why would they say that? | ||
I mean, we mentioned earlier, Sumerian Records had talked about the poke on their Twitter account the other day, or yesterday, or whatever. | ||
And the first replies were like, why are you doing this? | ||
Why are you talking about this? | ||
And it's like, look man, this is where the underground rock and metal scene and punk and hard rock scene, that's where the resistance to the man is supposed to live. | ||
Remember that Kaiser Chiefs? | ||
Everybody has clean hands! | ||
unidentified
|
Show me your hands! | |
You gotta see that video. | ||
That is so weird. | ||
That video is so crazy. | ||
They're all cheering. | ||
That scares me. | ||
Well you said earlier, we go to church to get community. | ||
I don't really get into doctrinal Christianity as it stands, but I love the community aspect of it. | ||
unidentified
|
Right, well I think people get that really wrong. | |
I just personally think people live in the idea that religion is the same thing as relationship. | ||
When it comes to God, and it's whack. | ||
Because there's so many people out there that think that in order to have a good relationship with God, you have to start by following all of his rules. | ||
Because that comes from the idea of, oh, God tells me I must do X. When in reality, if you read the Bible the way that God intended you to read the Bible, the reality is he says, if you want to follow my rules, you will. | ||
Like, I'm not worried about it. | ||
He's not stressed about it. | ||
He's not looking for you to scold you like a mean father. | ||
Guy's a homie. | ||
I gotta say that. | ||
Guy is a homie. | ||
He just wants to love you, and I don't know who needs to hear that, but... All right, let's read this. | ||
We got SteveVVV says, When Offspring released the video for Let the Bad Times Roll, I thought I had an ally. | ||
Then they kicked Pete, and the lyrics, quote, And so I'm turning my back on you changed the song's theme. | ||
Yeah. | ||
What a major letdown from that band. | ||
unidentified
|
You know? | |
Major letdown. | ||
All right, what do we got here? | ||
Let's read some more. | ||
Wyatt Caldenberg says, President Wilson had a major stroke in 1919 and was bedridden and could not speak for the last two years of a second term. | ||
His wife ran the country for two years. | ||
She passed a lot of awful laws. | ||
Interesting. | ||
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
Yeah, that's likely. | ||
Ozzy says, I'm pretty good at impressions, I never thought Tim would be, but his Pelosi and McConnell impressions crack me up. | ||
They really drive home how old these people are. | ||
But I just want to stress, they're not really impressions, they're mockeries. | ||
You know, like, I'm not really trying to impersonate Nancy Pelosi, I'm trying to insult her. | ||
It's a caricature. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
A slobbery caricature. | ||
unidentified
|
Donald Trump is the worst president we have ever had! | |
Dentures are out. | ||
Yeah. | ||
And McConnell talks like this. | ||
unidentified
|
Slow down, Democrats. | |
There you go. | ||
But you know, Seamus will only ever give me Dr. Fauci. | ||
I get a message from Seamus on Facebook and I'm like, oh, Seamus, he's messaging me again. | ||
You know, I'm all excited. | ||
He's my friend. | ||
He's not talking to me. | ||
And it's a Google document. | ||
And I'm like, oh, he just wants me to be Fauci. | ||
That's all he wants. | ||
That's all he cares about. | ||
And so then I read the lines as Dr. Fauci. | ||
He can't even let me, you know, be Nancy Pelosi. | ||
Is Fauci making, like, a quiet exit at the moment? | ||
Because I haven't heard his name in the news. | ||
If I understand correctly, yes, he's trying to get out of there. | ||
Somebody said gross to my Pelosi. | ||
Yeah. | ||
That's the intent. | ||
Yes. | ||
Thank you. | ||
Yeah. | ||
And I can do a really good Lori Lightfoot, apparently. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh, do it. | |
He stole it from us! | ||
The stupid fat one! | ||
unidentified
|
That sounds like Stitch. | |
Stitch? | ||
unidentified
|
It's Gollum from Lord of the Rings. | |
We should know. | ||
unidentified
|
No, it sounds like Stitch. | |
Or Jacinda Ardern. | ||
But I don't know if I could do Gollum with a New Zealand accent. | ||
I should work on that one. | ||
unidentified
|
She's got the mouth like that. | |
She doesn't sound like that, but her mouth looks like that. | ||
That's pretty good. | ||
I can say with a New Zealand accent is deekst. | ||
That's pretty good. | ||
Like because it's the only thing I remember. | ||
So I remember talking to someone in New Zealand, they're like, | ||
just send me a deekst. | ||
And I was like, what? | ||
If you listen to the Prime Minister that's stepped down, she has got the thickest New Zealand accent and I can't | ||
listen to her without laughing. | ||
That's the girl. | ||
That's Jacinda. | ||
Basically, if there's any politician who is in a state of decay, I'll just do Gollum's voice and say it's them. | ||
I'll take it. | ||
Alright, normiesgetout says, just got my murica beanie. | ||
All the other beanies are inferior, blue beanies are feds. | ||
What, at what, do you know what, what amount of time you get the America one? | ||
That's, that's like the longest, isn't it? | ||
Yeah, I believe that's the longest one. | ||
unidentified
|
I want to say 36 months. | |
Wow. | ||
So that's, uh, yeah, that's an OG guy right there. | ||
Yep, yep. | ||
And we got to make more emojis. | ||
What do we have? | ||
We have, uh, the, we added the latest ones was the golden cock. | ||
That's my favorite. | ||
Yep. | ||
We wanted to do a premium tier of ridiculous emojis, but you can't do it. | ||
Either people are members and they can have emojis, or they can't. | ||
You can't actually make a higher tier, I guess. | ||
Because we were going to be really silly with it and make ridiculous emojis. | ||
Alright! | ||
Yeah, he doesn't like to go inside of boxes. | ||
He really enjoys the open ones. | ||
He's claustrophobic. | ||
I scoop it out daily. | ||
Thousands canceling their accounts maybe. | ||
Tim does Mr. Bocas have a self-cleaning litter box? | ||
You can get one on our website. | ||
He hates it. | ||
Yeah, he doesn't like to go inside of boxes. | ||
He really enjoys the open ones. | ||
He's claustrophobic. | ||
I scoop it out daily. | ||
Or Cara does. | ||
I am glad to hear that Don Jr. | ||
got his account back, because, I don't want to say too much, but let me just say, we do business with PNC, and we had a meeting about, well, I just, we had a meeting about it, so, if you know what I mean. | ||
And we were very excited to hear John Rich was opening a bank, and so, let me just say, we had a meeting about it. | ||
But, if they did right by Don Jr., then I want to make sure we encourage doing the right thing. | ||
You know, I am with you there, except they didn't do right by him. | ||
They canceled his bank account and they gave it back when they were afraid. | ||
I think that that's an indication that they'll do it again in the future. | ||
Perhaps, but if we now all say, we don't care that you did what we asked. | ||
We are going to punish you anyway. | ||
They'll say, okay, then we have no incentive. | ||
So we need to say, thank you, PNC. | ||
I'm sure it was all a big error. | ||
Don't do it again. | ||
And they'll say, you got it. | ||
We won't. | ||
unidentified
|
Jeremy will probably just make a bank for you guys, so it's all good. | |
He's listening! | ||
Oh man! | ||
Jeremy! | ||
unidentified
|
IHatePNC.com! | |
Are you tired of woke banks shutting you down? | ||
Go to Jeremy's bank! | ||
We'll take your money! | ||
Quite literally, don't give your money to people who hate you! | ||
Give your money. | ||
Jeremy's going to come out in a week with Jeremy's bank. | ||
Oh no. | ||
Use an ATM in the video. | ||
I mean, that is actually funny. | ||
He's like, don't give your money. | ||
Literally give me your money. | ||
That'll be great. | ||
unidentified
|
All right. | |
Zach Dar says, Tim, if you use the name of the channel that appears on YouTube and not the URL, no one will be confused about what channel you're talking about. | ||
unidentified
|
It's Tim Pool on YouTube. | |
That's it. | ||
If you go to YouTube and search for Tim Pool, that's the channel. | ||
The problem is people get different results, and that's always been the difficult thing. | ||
Some people get the Timcast channel, and they think it's the Tim Pool channel. | ||
Well, YouTube.com slash Timcast News shows the name as Timcast, and then YouTube.com slash Timcast shows the name as Tim Pool, and I never did that. | ||
One day, YouTube just took, like they changed my channel's name from Timcast to Tim Pool. | ||
That's weird. | ||
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
And I think- They like synced it with your Google account or something? | ||
It was something like that, where they were like, your channel is now your name. | ||
It's been so confusing. | ||
I've got two accounts that are on with different email addresses, because when I made them in 2008, you couldn't have two accounts under one email address, and now I can't merge the accounts. | ||
And then they had Google+, like they didn't know, it was just such a mess in the 2008 era. | ||
John Goodwin says, dark chocolate is extra nuts. | ||
One of the ideas for Jeremy's chocolate is a dark chocolate bar that's just an extra large king size bar. | ||
unidentified
|
So we're getting into race chocolate now. | |
Yeah. | ||
Oh, yeah. | ||
Well, that was the point I was saying. | ||
And body shaming. | ||
Call it pitch black. | ||
unidentified
|
It'll be delicious. | |
No, but you could do the body positivity bar and it's just like a spattered chocolate in an odd shape. | ||
And it's like, don't hate it. | ||
It's still delicious. | ||
It just looks weird. | ||
unidentified
|
Tim, I don't understand why you don't talk about your poo chocolate bar. | |
Why don't you just try to sell that? | ||
I think you should try to sell that. | ||
It was really good. | ||
What about if it was like a chocolate bar that looked like a pregnant guy, and when you bit into the stomach, there was like a little jelly bean inside of it? | ||
A white chocolate baby. | ||
Yeah, what if? | ||
What if that was true? | ||
Let's get creative! | ||
unidentified
|
What if we just threw it on a whiteboard? | |
What if? | ||
unidentified
|
All right, let's... Oh, God. | |
Here we go. | ||
Duloc says, Tim, I'm a 26-year-old blue collar worker. | ||
I have been with my wife for eight years. | ||
I have a four-year-old son with another one on the way, and hopefully my generation isn't a complete loss. | ||
I will be at the Crystal Cove every weekend. | ||
unidentified
|
Nice. | |
Glad to hear it. | ||
It's taking so long to do everything. | ||
I'm about to lose my mind. | ||
I just don't understand why everything takes so long. | ||
Remember, the process is the destination. | ||
Bro, we have been trying for a year and a half. | ||
The new studio was supposed to be done one year ago. | ||
And it's been over a year now. | ||
I get it. | ||
Material supply shortages. | ||
We can't get the fiber installed. | ||
But I'm just like, I gotta be honest. | ||
I know that if I stopped doing this show and went down and did it myself, it would all be done in a week. | ||
That's the most annoying thing about everything. | ||
Yeah, Phil's got this look and I'm like, I'm telling you, bro. | ||
I just think a week is a little short, but I feel your pain. | ||
I'm trying to do some work on my house in New Hampshire, and it took a month and a half just to get the architect to do the measurements and draw up the existing plans, not the stuff that we're going to change. | ||
A month and a half just for him to measure and give me the plans for the existing house so that way we can decide on the changes. | ||
I feel you. | ||
We're going to build a multiple Faraday cage system where it's like a cage inside of a cage? | ||
Possibly inside of a cage, but we need to get the materials sooner than later because it might take eight months for them to arrive. | ||
I forgot who came up with the quote, but it's, uh, if you want something done, do it yourself. | ||
Yep. | ||
See, Brett Ain't Dead in the members chat says, bureaucracy, Tim. | ||
No, no, no, it's something else. | ||
It's, um, I forget what it's called, but every step of the way when a task is delegated to someone else, the amount of time it takes to finish, to resolve that task increases. | ||
That's just a reality. | ||
So there's only so much you can do. | ||
Exponentially increases too, as it goes down to more and more people. | ||
And then it ends up with one person who's at the bottom of the chain being like, | ||
I'll get to it when I get to it. And then eventually you walk in one day and you're like, | ||
what happened to that thing I said? And this happens a lot. | ||
It's like, hey, six months ago, we were supposed to do this thing, whatever happened to it? | ||
Oh, I guess we forgot. | ||
At the Daily Wire, they're not forgetting Jeremy's Razors. | ||
They're not forgetting to make their chocolate bars over there. Doing something. | ||
Well, a lot of this is the economy's screwed up, like the coffee stuff. | ||
It's just, it's remarkable. | ||
I don't think it's any individual organization's fault that every single company is dealing with shortages and they're unable to produce what we need from them. | ||
That's a reality of Biden's economy. | ||
So that I get but it is really frustrating that it's like why are we having in order to get the coffee shop up it's like once a week there will be a 10 minute conversation between parties and then they'll move one inch and I'm like why? | ||
Like how is that possible? | ||
Are they charging you for that? | ||
unidentified
|
No. | |
Okay. | ||
It's like, you'll meet, they'll say, we gotta do measurements. | ||
Then they'll say, next week, Thursday, we can come in and do the measurements. | ||
They come in for 20 minutes, they do the measurements, then they say, okay, next week, Thursday, we can give you the schematics. | ||
Then we say, okay. | ||
Then they come and give it, we go over it, we say, this has gotta change. | ||
Okay, give us a week to change them. | ||
And it's just like, it's insane. | ||
And I'm ready to be like... | ||
I'm ready to go to a thrift store and just buy a bunch of garbage, stack it up around the walls, and put an espresso machine from Best Buy in there and be like, shop's open! | ||
And then from there, we can, every week, add a new thing and build up. | ||
That's the annoying thing about how... trying to build a business and then open one. | ||
If we get the floors done, we could do that. | ||
Honestly, the building's there. | ||
It exists. | ||
I'm ready to just open the door and be like, we serve nothing. | ||
We don't have any permits. | ||
Let's hang out. | ||
Yeah, hang out. | ||
And I'm not even kidding. | ||
We'll hire someone to just stand there and we can put up some tables and y'all can play board games or something. | ||
Maybe you should get six things building at once so that they all start staggering in and getting completed. | ||
We'll start with a folding table for 20 bucks from Walmart. | ||
I'll buy a couple hundred dollar espresso machine. | ||
We won't sell the espresso because we don't have the permits, but you can have some if you want. | ||
And that's where we'll be for now. | ||
You can hang out. | ||
We'll put a TV and video games in there. | ||
I'm not even kidding. | ||
I'm ready to just do that. | ||
I'm not even joking. | ||
It's been since December. | ||
And every day it's like, oh, now there's another problem. | ||
You know what? | ||
I'm done with problems. | ||
I'm done talking about it. | ||
I'm ready to just get someone to go nail a TV to the wall, put the mounts up, we'll stick a switch under it, and y'all can play Mario Kart all day. | ||
It's there. | ||
People should be hanging out. | ||
Is there a working bathroom? | ||
Yes, there's like six. | ||
Yeah, then you're good. | ||
Yeah! | ||
Bathrooms work! | ||
There you go. | ||
Wi-Fi will help, but... No Wi-Fi. | ||
As long as you get the bathroom. | ||
Actually, no, I think we do have Wi-Fi. | ||
Then you really have very few things limiting you. | ||
I guess the issue is it would just be like a non-permitted space. | ||
Oh, permits, yeah. | ||
Yeah, but if we're not selling anything, it doesn't matter. | ||
Like, people are allowed to come into my building. | ||
It's my building. | ||
I own it. | ||
Come in, hang out, play board games. | ||
I think it's a good idea. | ||
Oh, before no coffee? | ||
Before coffee's sold? | ||
Coffee's free. | ||
Free coffee. | ||
Free coffee. | ||
And we'll just get, like, some store-bought... Nah. | ||
Don't do it until it's ready. | ||
Don't do it until you're just gonna start selling stuff, because you'll start incurring a loss immediately. | ||
Things will get damaged. | ||
We already are. | ||
That's the problem. | ||
But it's the damage that incurred by traffic. | ||
But that's a reality. | ||
I'm just saying this. | ||
We open those doors and let people come in, and then all of a sudden, magically, things will start getting done. | ||
Everyone's like, well, you know, it'll be another week. | ||
Oh, no, actually, we have a show on Friday. | ||
You have until Wednesday to get it done or you're fired. | ||
And they're going to be like, OK, we'll get it done. | ||
This is the crazy thing about everyone I've ever worked with. | ||
It's like you tell them, hey, we need this done by tomorrow. | ||
It gets done the day after. | ||
You say, OK, fine. | ||
Two days is fine. | ||
Then four days later, they're getting it done. | ||
And then if you give them four days to do it, OK, I understand it's really stressful. | ||
So you need a week. | ||
Then three weeks later, it's done. | ||
You gotta be like, if you don't get it done, you're out. | ||
unidentified
|
Bye. | |
Have a nice day. | ||
Yeah, I find people respond extremely well to say, Thursday by four o'clock, you have it done. | ||
And if they don't, reprimand. | ||
That's the way, because people, if you're like, get it to me whenever, if you need an extra day, it's gonna take whenever. | ||
People need deadlines. | ||
A lot of people need deadlines, because deadlines are the motivating factor for an An enormous amount of the population. | ||
If you tell people that there's no deadline, it's open-ended, they're going to do things at their own pace. | ||
If you give them a deadline and they say okay, then they've agreed to it, then they'll stress that they've said yes, they've agreed to that time, so they've internalized that as their own commitment, and they're like, oh man, I gotta blah blah blah blah blah. | ||
Or at least they're more likely to do that. | ||
I can't say that for everybody. | ||
So here's what I'm gonna do. | ||
I'm gonna check and see if it's possible, but here's my idea. | ||
Mount some TVs, bring in some sofas, we'll grab them from a thrift store, who knows, I don't care. | ||
Then, if you're a member of the website, you can come and hang out. | ||
And we'll start with that. | ||
Front door will be locked. | ||
You knock. | ||
Someone will be there and they'll be like, howdy, and you're a member of TimCast.com, | ||
they'll be like, yep, and be like, let me pull up your account. Boom. Nice to meet you, John. | ||
Welcome. Come on in. Hang out. It might end up though that three months go by and you're like, | ||
just paying employees to stand around and it's just incurring loss after loss. And you're like, | ||
dude, I could have hired three people for this. You are incorrect. | ||
I mean, if you're not selling anything. | ||
Uh-huh. | ||
So we are already losing money on the people sitting around because we have to have people there as it is. | ||
You can't have an empty building. | ||
So why don't I just let people come hang out? | ||
Because then it's gonna be like, okay, people are here. | ||
You need to start figuring out ASAP. | ||
Like, the building's not empty. | ||
We have to have people working there all the time. | ||
And so all we're doing is everyone's sitting there right now being like, well, you know, when it gets done, it gets done. | ||
And I'm like, nah, not anymore. | ||
I'm opening the doors. | ||
Open the doors, you know, we'll open at nine, we'll close at nine or whatever, and I'll hire a guy. | ||
I mean, bro, if I hire some, you know, someone who's a fan for like 15 bucks an hour to hang out, play video games all day, I really don't, that's not the big of a loss, and I think that investment will actually get things moving faster. | ||
You're gonna have people coming in, and they're gonna be hanging out, and it will start something. | ||
This is the problem with traditional brick-and-mortar stuff. | ||
You invest a large sum of money to create the foundation, and then once it's done and everything's beautiful, you unlock the door and then cross your fingers you get your money back. | ||
But I've always said, the way I like doing business is just start doing it, figure it out, and build it as you go. | ||
Which would mean at this point, I'm done waiting. | ||
It's been four months. | ||
I'm frustrated. | ||
The coffee's taken four months, and this company let us down. | ||
And so I'm just like, I'm sick of it. | ||
You know, like, the crazy thing is, I've been talking about this fact-checking nonprofit, and it's like, well, it's gonna take another X amount of months to register with all the different states, and I'm like, this is insane that it takes so long to do this! | ||
I think, I trust your instincts. | ||
I think you do things different than a lot of people, but that's fine. | ||
You're successful, so... | ||
I think we should just start by being like, it's a club. | ||
It's a private building for private members, members of TimCast.com. | ||
You can come and hang out whenever you want. | ||
And then once we get the first floor done with the actual coffee bar and the plumbing and everything, then we'll open those doors up to the public with the permits and everything. | ||
And the club moves to floor number two. | ||
And then ultimately club is floor number three. | ||
Just starting is probably a good idea, because that tends to be the thing that slows people down the most, is waiting for the right time. | ||
Being like, well, you know, we don't have this, or I don't have that, or I don't have this particular thing. | ||
Just going and being like, all right, we're gonna go and do it, and we'll make it work. | ||
It gets things in motion, it gets things going, so I don't think it's a bad idea. | ||
Yeah, I think a couple people working 15 bucks an hour, and their job is literally just to hang out. | ||
Like, I could get someone who's in school and be like, do your homework. | ||
Be here, unlock the doors, order food, do your schoolwork, play your video games, and that's your job. | ||
You're just here to basically watch things. | ||
And then we'll have a club, and people can come and hang out, and there ain't nothing in there. | ||
The chat's yelling, you have to have liability insurance first. | ||
We do, we have all that. | ||
The problem is, it's like, the contractor's to build everything out, it's getting delayed, and now it's been three months. | ||
How has it been three months? | ||
We can't get someone to put some two-by-fours with a big old plank of wood on top of it. | ||
Granted, we need plumbing, that I understand. | ||
At three months, we should have at least had a plan for the machines we're gonna get, the coffee supply's been delayed, and I'm like, you know what, man? | ||
The purpose of the place isn't to sell coffee and make a million dollars selling coffee. | ||
The purpose of the place is to create a community hangout. | ||
You can do that in a building. | ||
So I'm just like, I'm ready to open the door. | ||
We'll figure it out. | ||
I'm sure I'm going to get some lawyer or someone being like, well, now listen, Mr. Paul, I understand your frustrations, but you've got to take into consideration. | ||
That's how it always goes. | ||
Someone's like, Hey, here's breaking news. | ||
We got sued several times. | ||
I'm not supposed to talk about that either. | ||
There you go. | ||
Happy Friday, everybody. | ||
The news is broke. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Yeah. | ||
Someone I was in when I was telling you about, Hey, it might cost this amount of money. | ||
So it was like, Ian, Tim just bought two granite candy bars, dude, bro. | ||
Okay, yeah, that's true. | ||
That's big. | ||
But that was in direct support of the Daily Wire. | ||
It was coffee and steak. | ||
What they're doing, and I want to support what they do. | ||
I want them to do more of it. | ||
I want people to buy their bars. | ||
I want more people to do exactly what they're doing, speaking up, speaking out, and engaging | ||
in culture in this way. | ||
I want those candy bar wrappers to have, I want to spread that culture. | ||
I want people who come here to be like, what's a He-Him bar? | ||
I'll be like, don't you know about what the Daily Wire did? | ||
The culture building can't just be one company doing it. | ||
We have to actively engage with and spread the culture building. | ||
So that's what that's all about. | ||
That's what I want to invest money in. | ||
That's why I want to spend money on the cafe. | ||
And when you walk up to the counter to buy your coffee, there will be a he, him, she, her bar from Jeremy's chocolate. | ||
And then we'll be like, that's a large coffee. | ||
And would you like to add any Jeremy's chocolate to your coffee purchase? | ||
And actually, yeah, I will take one. | ||
Which one has the nuts? | ||
Oh, I get it. | ||
All right, so, yeah, we'll try and get that stuff done. | ||
Raymond G. Stanley Jr. | ||
says, Tim, say yes, I'll drive down, hook up the TVs, move furniture in, no charge, teamwork. | ||
We will be reaching out to you, Raymond G. Stanley Jr., and then maybe we just make you captain of the club, because you're basically captain of the club as it is, and waffles, but we'll figure it out. | ||
All right, my friends, yeah. | ||
A lot of people are saying procrastination. | ||
All right. | ||
If you haven't already, would you kindly smash the like button, subscribe to this channel, share this show with your friends, become a member at TimCast.com because I'm basically trying to make it a multifaceted thing. | ||
You are supporting our work, you're supporting the website, but what we're going to try and do, and it may not work out this way because one of the things I'm learning, each different venture has to be its own entity. | ||
So the club, it can't be for TimCast members because it has to be separate for liability reasons. | ||
So it will be its own separate club, but we'll figure out a way to make these cool things because what I would like to do is create a one-stop shop where if you're a member of TimCast.com you get all these benefits. | ||
But I think for liability reasons, we can't. | ||
It has to be like the physical space has its liabilities, its insurance. | ||
And as a company, it has to be responsible for its own income. | ||
So we'll figure something out, though, because it yeah, no, definitely has to be separate. | ||
We already have issues with the fact that we have a skate park in this building. | ||
With people who are not skate park related, it causes insurance issues. | ||
You could do an umbrella corp like Google owns YouTube. | ||
So if you have a Google account, you can use your YouTube with this. | ||
unidentified
|
Nope. | |
What? | ||
So if you made like X corp, then it could own with your X corp... We can't have a corporate insurance and then add on a separate building that does a totally separate thing because it would conflict with the insurance. | ||
It has to be a separate entity. | ||
What if X corp owns the entity of the coffee shop? | ||
And the liability transfers up to the parent company. | ||
Yeah, so separate companies. | ||
We'll figure it out. | ||
Anyway, become a member at TimCast.com. | ||
We're working on it. | ||
