| Elon Musk has filed his lawsuit against media matters and he says it is thermonuclear. | ||
| Everybody is now joining the war against the censorship industrial complex. | ||
| That's what they're calling it. | ||
| A group of activists and political personalities who have been filing false takedowns and waging the cancel culture war against so many of us and now the war is on. | ||
| Babylon Bee announced they'd be pledging $250,000 into ads on X. I immediately got on Twitter and announced we would be joining the Babylon Bee's efforts with a $250,000 ad campaign of our own, and many others also joined in. | ||
| Andrew Tait pledged $1 million per month. | ||
| So many people are joining the fray. | ||
| And Chris Pavlovsky, the CEO of Rumble, announced the cavalry is coming, and they too will be assisting in the war against the censorship industrial complex. | ||
| We have the court filing. | ||
| It is up. | ||
| And we're going to go through it and talk about why it's so serious. | ||
| They are trying to destroy X. Because Elon Musk will not. | ||
| In my opinion, I think this is fair to say. | ||
| He will not give the government the backdoors they want. | ||
| Twitter did. | ||
| Twitter bent the knee. | ||
| Now all of these fascists are coming out saying, if you don't give the government their secret police access, they will destroy you. | ||
| So we're fighting back. | ||
| In other news, Javier Millet has won in Argentina. | ||
| This guy is described as libertarian, anarcho-capitalist, Far right! | ||
| He's endorsed by Trump, Bolsonaro, and Naeem Bakele, so naturally everyone is super excited, especially when you look at videos of him ripping down a whole bunch of names of government departments and screaming, Afuera! | ||
| Or out! | ||
| When he's ripping them down. | ||
| The people of Argentina are sick and tired of the woke nonsense. | ||
| And so they said, let's roll, baby. | ||
| We got a lot of fun stuff to talk about. | ||
| Donald Trump is actually winning among 18 to 39 year olds. | ||
| I'm sorry, 18 to 34 year olds. | ||
| So there is a lot of big news. | ||
| Plus, this one's pretty crazy. | ||
| A new documentary coming out about Derek Chauvin and George Floyd suggests the FBI altered the autopsy report of George Floyd and that the original report did not mention in any way asphyxiation. | ||
| Chauvin says it was a sham trial. | ||
| Just as the Supreme Court refuses to take up his appeal. | ||
| So we'll talk about all that before we get started, my friends. | ||
| Head over to castbrew.com and buy the best coffee you've ever had. | ||
| Our limited edition Rewrithes with Roberto Jr. | ||
| is going fast and it will not exist once this run is done. | ||
| We made this for Halloween. | ||
| It is mocking our dead mascot, Roberto Jr. | ||
| We love him, but still, we have fun. | ||
| And it shows his little rooster foot erupting from the earth as a zombie. | ||
| Get ReRise today, Zombie Blend. | ||
| We also have everyone's favorite, Rise with Roberto Jr. | ||
| and Appalachian Nights. | ||
| I'll tell you right now, if you go to the Cast Brew Coffee Twitter account, there is a buy one get one code available for Black Friday. | ||
| And more importantly, when you support Casprew, you're supporting our efforts at setting up physical locations. | ||

| Sooner or later. | ||

| Yo! | ||
| How's it going? | ||
| Who are you? | ||
| What do you do? | ||
| I am a comedian. | ||
| I am a co-host of The Boys Cast with Ryan Long, who a lot of people probably know. | ||
| And I also host on Tuesday nights a call-in show. | ||
| I'm trying to bring call-in shows back. | ||
| It's called Low Value Mail, M-A-I-L. | ||
| And again, I'm a stand-up comedian, so. | ||
| Everybody in the chat as soon as they saw that you weren't like and I'm the guy who makes lists There were people know me as that they were like, oh, this is gonna be the funniest episode ever cuz Danny's here He's so funny. | ||
| And I was like man pressures on All right. | ||
| Good luck, sir. | ||
| Yeah, we got still hanging out. | ||
| Hello everybody. | ||
| My name is Philip on team a very failed musician the lead singer of all that remains I'm an anti-communist and a counter-revolutionary Hi, I'm Ian Crossman. | ||
| What's happening, dude? | ||
| And I have presents for Ian. | ||
| Oh, okay. | ||
| I'd like to hand you this one first, and you can show it to the camera. | ||
| Oh, nice. | ||
| The first one's a t-shirt. | ||
| I got one for Luke as well. | ||
| And it's from the Flight 93 memorial. | ||
| Hey, Flight 93! | ||
| We went to the memorial a couple weekends ago, and we were able to pick up some stuff that I thought would be interesting for Ian. | ||
| So I also have this for you. | ||
| This is a book I would like you to read. | ||
| You can hold it up. | ||
| This is a book? | ||
| The 9-11 Commission Report. | ||
| That's a big book! | ||
| Oh, this is valuable. | ||
| And then, of course, these we got in the summer, and I just forgot to give them to Ian. | ||
| This is a crystal from Tijuana that was charged in the ocean by Luke Rutkowski. | ||
| Charged. | ||
| That means he dipped it in the water. | ||
| And he charged- does he do, like, a spell? | ||
| I guess. | ||
| All I know is Luke took off his shirt, jumped in the water, and said, now the crystal has been charged, and that we're supposed to give it to Ian, and I don't know what that means, but I guess all the hippie people know exactly what it means, and they're probably like, oh wow, good for Ian. | ||
| He altered the structural lattice. | ||
| You feel it? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Do you feel that it's charged? | ||
| Yeah, I think so. | ||
| It could be psychosomatic, I don't know, but it feels like the other crystal that Luke gave me that was charged. | ||
| Is it warm or is it more like a vibration? | ||
| It's like warm, actually. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It conducts, uh... And then here's a little bag. | ||
| What's in his back pocket? | ||
| With, like, mini mushrooms. | ||
| It is full of mushrooms. | ||
| Can you see these? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, they're glass. | |
| These are not for eating, apparently. | ||
| They're little glass mushrooms. | ||
| He does! | ||
| He does! | ||
| Thank you, man. | ||
| Let's roll, baby. | ||
| Yeah, hurry up. | ||
| If someone gives you a bag of random mushrooms in the movies, you just eat them and see what happens. | ||
| Not the glass ones. | ||
| I told Ian before the show, I was like, I got you presents, but the immediate assumption is it's gonna be some kind of gag. | ||
| I'm like, no, actually, we got you gifts. | ||
| Like, when we were out, we just never gave them to you. | ||
| They're made of different things. | ||
| There's wood, this is glass, this one is, uh... Normally, we get you in soap. | ||
| But like goat milk soap, you know, like really fancy stuff with none of the weird shit. | ||
| Lauren Chen hooked it up last week So that's right. | ||
| Soap for weeks, soap for months. | ||
| Right on. | ||
| All right, we got Serge pressing the buttons. | ||
| Yeah, I'm just watching, uh, you can get all these gifts. | ||
| Seeing the joy in his eyes is a great thing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, anyways, let's get started, Tim. | |
| All right, here's the first story from the New York Post, Elon Musk's axe! | ||
| Now here's where it gets really fascinating. | ||
| Media Matters. Messaging platform Axon Monday sued Media Matters Watchdog Group, sued Media | ||
| Watchdog Group Media Matters, alleging the organization defamed the platform after it | ||
| published a report that said ads for major brands had appeared next to posts touting Nazism. | ||
| Now here's where it gets really fascinating. I'll tell you, I'll break it down for you very simply. | ||
| What Elon Musk is saying, as well as several employees publicly stating this, | ||
| what Media Matters for America did, to understand what Media Matters is, | ||
| there is a series of Democrat and government aligned groups that engage in lawfare and | ||
| cancel culture to destroy people who believe in liberty among one thing. | ||
| And those who are conservative. | ||
| And so what they're saying, they're alleging, what Media Matters did, and this is really fascinating, Media Matters created new accounts or accessed accounts that had been around for just 30 days to bypass certain restrictions. | ||
| They then intentionally followed a handful of Nazi accounts and a handful of advertiser accounts to create a timeline where their posts existed next to each other. | ||
| That's pretty amazing, isn't it? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So if you choose, if I choose to follow Phil, and choose to follow Danny, and then I get a post from Phil, and a post from Danny, I go, oh! | ||
| Why is this post from this offensive comedian appearing next to my wholesome heavy metal music? | ||
| It's like, X is gonna be like, because you chose for it to, because you wanted it to. | ||
| This is a free speech platform. | ||
| We're allowing, the point is we're allowing you to do that. | ||
| So we, uh, we have the document. | ||
| Oh, you got it? | ||
| Yeah, so the document is up. | ||
| We have it right here. | ||
| United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Fort Worth Division, ExCorp and Nevada Corporation versus Media Matters for America. | ||
| They say defendant Media Matters for America is a self-proclaimed media watchdog that decided it would not let the truth get in the way of a story it wanted to publish about ExCorp. | ||
| Looking to portray X's social networking platform as being dominated by white nationalists and anti-semitic conspiracy theories, Media Matters knowingly and maliciously manufactured side-by-side images depicting advertisers' posts on X Corp's social media platforms besides neo-Nazi and white nationalist fringe content, and then portrayed these manufactured images as if they were what typical X users experience on the platform. | ||
| Media Matters designed both these images and its resulting media strategy to drive advertisers from the platform and destroy X Corp, and as of right now, This is a big deal. | ||
| We got Apple, IBM, Lionsgate, Disney, Comcast, NBCU, Paramount, Warner Brothers, Discovery, and other firms have paused their marketing. | ||
| This is a massive hit to X's revenue based on lies. | ||
| They're going to say, Plaintiff, X Corp operates the X-Media platform with over 500 million active monthly users, facilitates free expression, open discourse, etc, etc. | ||
| We get it. | ||
| We get it. | ||
| So now we're hearing, I think it's the AG out of Missouri, is investigating fraud. | ||
| Because it's both civil and criminal fraud at this point. | ||
| And I gotta be honest, I think any reasonable person who looks at what Media Matters does will conclude it is it is a it is a it's fraud. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| When when an organization lies intentionally, and then uses those lies to engage in tortious interference, Now you've got, you're going beyond just a civil case. | ||
| It's criminal. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, Apple alone is, I think they said, Apple alone outspends a hundred million dollars a year. | ||
| I don't know what the grand total of all these companies is, but that's some serious damage. | ||
| It's Barry Media Matters. | ||
| I mean, I don't know what kind of, you know, margin they make, but, or what kind of... Well, they're like a non-profit. | ||
| Yeah, it's a non-profit. | ||
| I think Elon Musk might just own them after this. | ||
| He's going to do the same thing. | ||
| It's a non-profit, you don't own them. | ||
| It's just, they're going to... | ||
| There's not much you can do. | ||
| Evil people do evil things, and even if they're on the hook to Elon Musk for substantial sums of money, they keep doing what they're doing. | ||
| I mean, evil exists, man. | ||
| Well, I mean, if there is criminal prosecution, that might actually change behavior, because then that'll turn into... | ||
| You know, there could be prosecution for criminal and put him in jail or something. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| There's attempts. | ||
| Tim mentioned the Missouri case, but also the owner of Rumble was just tweeting, I don't know where it went to, was just tweeting that he's trying to get the attention of Jim Jordan and Congress. | ||
| So, I don't know. | ||
| Yeah, I don't know what protections a non-profit has against stuff like this. | ||
| I think the floodgates are busting open. | ||
| I don't think that many people really buy this stuff anymore. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's not just that. | |
| I agree with you, but if the Republicans look into the taking down of Parler, Now it's big. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah, we're talking about the government colluding with private organizations to shut down businesses, to censor speech. | ||
| This goes well beyond just someone got banned on Twitter. | ||
| Yeah, I mean Parler was clearly an effort to shut down any possible, you know, counter-narrative to what was being put on Twitter before, you know, after January 6th. | ||
| It was clear. | ||
| I mean, Amazon shut their servers down. | ||
| There was all kinds of push from the government to shut them down. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I don't remember the details, but... Yeah, they had their servers, like, pulled, basically. | ||
| Yeah, you know, I don't think that that's... There's not a whole lot of question as to whether or not that happened. | ||
| I don't hear people saying, no, this didn't happen or whatever. | ||
| You know, so... Yeah, I'm curious how long these companies are gonna... Because I'm sure Twitter has provided them with a report. | ||
| They did, right? | ||
| Saying, like, hey, here's our... | ||
| Like backend data just saying like, hey, this is totally misrepresented. | ||
| They break it down. | ||
| I mean, this is actually quite hilarious. | ||
| What they're arguing in the lawsuit is that Media Matters exclusively followed a small subset of users consisting entirely of accounts in one of two categories. | ||
| Those known to produce extreme fringe content and accounts owned by X's big-name advertisers. | ||
| The end result was a feed, precision designed by Media Matters for a single purpose, to produce side-by-side ad content placements that it could screenshot in an effort to alienate advertisers. | ||
| Yo, they followed Crazy Guy, followed Apple, and then went, oh no, the posts are appearing next to each other! | ||
| But that's quite literally you choosing. | ||
| Yeah, that's... | ||
| I mean, the question is how long all these companies kind of keep up with it. | ||
| Because they've done this before. | ||
| Didn't they recently do this exact same thing where all these advertisers paused? | ||
| I don't remember what the last one was. | ||
| It's all live. | ||
| But like someone did something similar. | ||
| They go, hey, you know what's going on? | ||
| And all these are like something Elon tweeted. | ||
| And then everybody paused. | ||
| And then they come back and they're like... But there's serious damages, like a week of no ads. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| I mean, that's significant. | ||
| Huge money. | ||
| I got Elon's play for you. | ||
| I said this during the YouTube adpocalypse. | ||
| And I'm going to say it now. | ||
| And I hope Elon hears it. | ||
| Here's what you do, buddy. | ||
| Let's play a game. | ||
| IBM, Apple, insert company NBCU, they want to go to war with you over something that is obviously and knowingly false. | ||
| I want everyone to understand this. | ||
| You think Apple doesn't know this is fake? | ||
| There's no way their marketing people are like, oh heavens me, I can't believe this happened. | ||
| No, they know exactly what it is. | ||
| It's curated and it's fake. | ||
| So here's what you do, Elon. | ||
| Advertise against them. | ||
| And what I would say is, Whatever amount of money you'd spend in marketing that you pull off the table, we will cost you tenfold in negative press. | ||
| Good luck. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| The way I viewed it with YouTube was when, you know, Big Company X announces they're pulling off the platform, | ||
| I'd immediately offer a premium deal to their main competition. | ||
| Apple wants to jump off the platform, I'd go to Microsoft and say, | ||
| we'll give you double the access for half the cost. | ||
| Microsoft then goes, oh boy, now we're getting a premium deal. | ||
| And here's what you do. | ||
| Make the ads and sold Apple. | ||
| Now Apple's got to contend with massive, multi-million dollar marketing against them | ||
| because they chose to play with the lie. | ||
| Yeah, this is probably just like the most basic CYA for them and they'll just, you know, they'll be back. | ||
| I imagine they'll all be back in short order with CYA. | ||
| Cover your ass. | ||
| They just go, hey, someone said something, and they play it the most safe as possible. | ||
| But you said a moment ago, no one's really falling for it anymore. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I don't think they're falling for it either, and I don't think they're concerned. | ||
| I think they're part of it. | ||
| No, I meant the regular people. | ||
| Because the thing with media matters, I don't know exactly another thing, but the biggest competition to mainstream media right now is X. If I turn on CNN or Fox right now, or MSNBC, I'm just watching what I saw on Twitter yesterday. | ||
| YouTube, YouTube and X. I would say YouTube's like the ultimate, although YouTube's kind of mainstream. | ||
| The thing with Twitter is the real citizen journalism though, where like, you know, something happens and there's just a guy like there who's just filming. | ||
| Even YouTube is a day late because everyone that's talking about, you know, what's going on, if they're making videos, yeah, it takes at least a few hours to produce it unless you're doing like live stream stuff. | ||
| And that stuff is done on X nowadays. | ||
| People are, if you want to look for the most recent news, it's going to be on X. Always been that way. | ||
| Right, I'm on the ground at Occupy Wall Street. | ||
| The video's instantly up on Twitter. | ||
| YouTube was like, it doesn't really work that way. | ||
| Yeah, it's just a slightly different way that people ingest that content. | ||
| There's production value, like, I mean, even low, you know, people that pride themselves on low production value or, you know, looking like it's DIY and stuff, there's some production value, whether it be editing or stuff like that. | ||
| So you can't get it up as fast as you can on YouTube. | ||
| I mean, like, if there's like a giant car accident, like car crash or something, It's just someone whips out their phone, and they go, this is, you know, crazy. | ||
| And then that's where you're gonna see it first, before anywhere. | ||
| And you know you're not gonna get banned off X for uploading it, whereas on YouTube it's like, did you vet this? | ||
| You better, if you're gonna say this is real by posting it, then you better vet this thing. | ||
| Even if you did vet it, and even if it is real, they'll just... | ||
| They'll still just kick you off or whatever. | ||
| Maybe. | ||
| It depends. | ||
| Certain, certain things. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But it's like, it's not, it's not like the proving ground is kind of X. It's like the testing ground for data. | ||
| Fake stuff goes up. | ||
| Real stuff goes up. | ||
| And then we decide what's real. | ||
| And then we put that on YouTube. | ||
| Here's the wild, here's the wild thing. | ||
| If Jack Dorsey still owned X, Twitter, you would be banned for criticizing Hamas. | ||
| I think it is a very, very strong likelihood that... What was it? | ||
| Facebook's rules said that you were allowed to praise Nazis so long as they were fighting in Russia? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Right? | ||
| So it's like, I'm pretty sure... | ||
| I mean, the crazy thing right now is Michael Rappaport, if you saw on Instagram, if you go to follow him on Instagram right now, it gives you the warning that says, this account posts... Controversial things. | ||
| No, no, not controversial. | ||
| It's like fake and misleading. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, is it? | |
| They got him on Rappaport. | ||
| As soon as he said he'd vote for Trump, they got him. | ||
| Isn't that crazy? | ||
| Someone sent that to me. | ||
| I couldn't believe it. | ||
| I had to see for myself. | ||
| And it literally says, if you go follow Michael Rappaport on Instagram. | ||
| We'll pull that up. | ||
| I took a screenshot of him on my phone. | ||
| Because I'm like, Rappaport, you think that guy's been orange man bad for ever? | ||
| But he just came out and said he's considering voting for Trump. | ||
| It says, are you sure you want to follow Michael Rappaport? | ||
| This account has repeatedly posted false information that was reviewed by independent fact-checkers or when it does something illegal. | ||
| This is why they need to destroy X. Elon Musk shattered a large portion of their narrative control. | ||
| That's what I'm saying. | ||
| So some argue, people on the left argue that if Jack Dorsey owned the platform, you would not be able to criticize Israel. | ||
| I think it's the other way around. | ||
| I mean, I got kicked off Instagram recently, on October 8th is when I started. | ||
| But I think Donald Trump being the biggest issue for them, Michael right before he makes a video where he's like, Big Dick Donald Trump! | ||
|
unidentified
|
I'm gonna vote for him! | |
| I'm considering it! | ||
| And then it's funny, because he kind of sounds like a high-pitched version of Trump. | ||
| And now they're putting a flag on his account. | ||
| Crazy, because he's been the most, just like every allowable opinion. | ||
| Orange man, bad, all that stuff. | ||
| Forever. | ||
| And then the moment he veers off of the acceptable kind of stuff, gone. | ||
| Let's carry this on. | ||
| We got this tweet from Chris Pavlovsky. | ||
| He says, X is not alone. | ||
| I can also confirm that Media Matters has purposely misrepresented Rumble. | ||
| Their dishonesty warrants an immediate investigation at the highest levels. | ||
| And he says, hint Speaker Johnson and Jim Jordan, and I'll bring the receipts. | ||
| Here's my statement. | ||
| He says, Media Matters is threatened by Rumble's mission to protect a free and open internet. | ||
| So the reaction is to deceive the public and scare advertisers. | ||
| For example, on March 14th, Media Matters claimed that advertisements for Netflix Which were appearing on Rumble had been placed on videos that violated our content policies. | ||
| However, according to Google Analytics, the week before publication of that Media Matters article, there had been zero page views of that video. | ||
| This means that the Media Matters activist who took the screenshots was the first human being to actually view the Netflix ad on the video in question, though their story left the false impression that it was a widespread problem. | ||
| The same is true for most of the videos cited by Media Matters, all of which were removed from Rumble as soon as we were made aware of them. | ||
| It's clear that Media Matters intends to mislead and deceive about advertisements on Rumble in order to hamper free speech and harm law-abiding employers who only want to advertise their product and services. | ||
| Yo, it's tortious interference. | ||
| There's no reason why you can't just say, you know, Chris and Elon, they're trying to cost you money and damage your business. | ||
| Take it to the monetary issue right here. | ||
| Prove damages. | ||
| Let Media Matters outright admit that they're doing this and then show it to a judge. | ||
| Do we know who funds them? | ||
| Well, probably George Soros. | ||
| Yeah, that would be me. | ||
| No, I think that's actually easily confirmed. | ||
| There was a big article that people were sharing. | ||
| But it's a non-profit that receives a bunch of donations. | ||
| He says, Media Matters doesn't do anything for free, so who is funding this outrageous targeting activity? | ||
| Who is paying for them to target free speech, and why are they afraid of free expression online? | ||
| Speaker Johnson and Rep Jordan, it's time for Congress to ask hard questions. | ||
| Elon Musk responds saying, they have a long track record of evil deeds. | ||
| An investigation is badly needed. | ||
| I will tell you this right now. | ||
| I will place a large sum of money, I mean this figuratively, a gentleman's bet, let's say that, that the U.S. | ||
| government is working directly with Media Matters in some way. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| What's probably happening is government actors and Media Matters employees probably are in regular communication to coordinate their efforts and target social media platforms with allies who work for these companies. | ||
| We know this is a fact that the government did this. | ||
| Now Media Matters yet to be seen, but the government did do this with Vijay Gadde. | ||
| Who had regular meetings with them, and gave them a backdoor, and Facebook gave the government a backdoor. | ||
| The U.S. | ||
| government has gone rogue in this regard. | ||
| I mean, we can say they've gone rogue in terms of war. | ||
| When was the last time the U.S. | ||
| declared war? | ||
| They've gone rogue in basically every way you can imagine it. | ||
| They don't take care of the border. | ||
| They violate individuals' rights by spying on them. | ||
| I don't believe that the NSA has stopped spying, even though they're supposed to have stopped collecting metadata. | ||
| I don't believe they are. | ||
| And the reason I don't believe they are is because if they want it, they let Google and all the companies, these big tech companies, they let them collect the data and then they just subpoena it so their hands are clean. | ||
| But if they want it, they know that these big tech companies are going to give it to them. | ||
| So they're monitoring everything you do. | ||
| Ring will Monitor you with cameras at your house. | ||
| There's cameras all over every major city. | ||
| The number of individual liberties that are specifically protected by the Constitution is equal to the number of individual liberties that the federal government violates on a regular basis. | ||
| But I want to throw this in there. | ||
| From the post-millennial, Tim Cass, the Benny Show, joined Babylon Bee in pledging ex-ad buys to fight cancel culture. | ||
| We're not the only ones. | ||
| A large group of people are doing this. | ||
| We are putting our money where our mouth is, but let me just make sure everyone understands. | ||
| When I say that TimCast is going to spend $250,000 on Axe to support Elon and his mission, understand we're buying ads. | ||
| I'm not just giving away free money. | ||
| The other thing people should understand is I am not saying that right now I will write a check for $250,000 and hand it to Axe for ads. | ||
| $250,000 ad buy, unless specified, it could be over a year. | ||
| You know, someone could be talking about something like $10,000 or $20,000 per month. | ||
| So I outlined this specifically in my tweet saying the goal is for in Q1 of 2024 to have spent $250,000 in ads in the first three months and ideally $100,000 per month for three months. | ||
| So that's what our target is. | ||
| That's what we're talking about doing. | ||
| Many other people are joining in. | ||
| It's not going to stem the bleed of the massive advertisers pulling off the platform, but I must say this. | ||
| If we believe that we are correct, we must support the organizations that we know help us keep going. | ||
| You must buy products from companies that share your values. | ||
| If I'm going to buy ads in Times Square, screw that. | ||
| It's X from now on. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Well, Times Square ads were fun. | ||
| You know, we wanted to assert ourselves in the mainstream space. | ||
| But if I actually want conversions, people who are going to sign up for TimCast.com and become members, X is a better place to buy ads. | ||
| So I will buy from X. | ||
| Everybody else, if you're using Twitter, consider becoming a premium user of Twitter for $8 a month. | ||
| Consider joining Benny's show at whatever membership levels he's offering. | ||
| Consider joining the Babylon Bee. | ||
| Consider joining TimCast.com. | ||
| I don't know Andrew Tate's deal, but he's offering $1,000,000 a month. | ||
| And he's going to advertise X on X. He's not even advertising his... I don't know if that's... I know he said that, but he's just going to promote Twitter on Twitter. | ||
| But the reality is, look, if he uses his account to run an ad saying X is a great platform, you should use it, it's still promoting his account. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| That's what I'm saying. | ||
| If I run a cast brew coffee ad, there are these leftists who are like, ha ha, these people are rushing to give the richest man in the world money. | ||
| It's like, dude, we sell coffee, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
If I buy an ad... Wait, do leftists call you the richest man in the world? | |
| No, Elon. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh, okay. | |
| No, they're saying we're rushing to give the richest man in the world money. | ||
| If I'm selling cast-brew coffee and I spend a hundred grand in ads, and then sell 200 grand worth of coffee, duh, that's how ads work. | ||
| Yeah, that's the point. | ||
| Anytime the leftists start talking about, like, money, you just know they don't have any idea what they're talking about, so it doesn't matter. | ||
| Also, who donates money to Media Matters? | ||
| If you could donate to any charity right now... George Soros. | ||
| But I'm saying individual, because they say that they get their money. | ||
| There's no way someone's like, oh, I'm just going to make my annual $20 Media Matters. | ||
| I bet there is. | ||
| This says that they don't disclose their donors. | ||
| Yeah, there's a couple people. | ||
| Philanthropynewsdigest.org says Media Matters receives a million dollars from George Soros in 2010. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So, I can't imagine he just decided. | |
| Do charities not have to disclose their donors? | ||
| Because that's insidious. | ||
| It's a 501c3. | ||
| I don't think you're not an individual. | ||
| Is it a c3? | ||
| Oh, I thought it was. | ||
| C3, yes. | ||
| C4, no. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Like, you have to- an individual itemized list of every single person? | |
| Yeah, so Google search this, Ian. | ||
| Media Matters 990. | ||
| And you should be able to pull up easily, because it's public record. | ||
| If you want to be tax exempt, then your expenses have to be in the public record now. | ||
| That doesn't mean you'll know exactly where their money came from. | ||
| It'll show you how much money they make, how much money they have. | ||
| It'll tell you the salaries of their top staff and employees and things like that. | ||
| The 990 will? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| But they don't have to... people can donate? | ||
| I think it has to be public who donated, I'm pretty sure. | ||
| Because 501c4s, you don't have to disclose. | ||
| And also, what else do they do other than like... I know they do, they just are like... The whole thing is just truth in media? | ||
| Like, what is their... Their whole thing is making up lies. | ||
| Yeah, but that's what I'm gonna say. | ||
| What is their stated objective as a charity? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Just to police track the right or something? | |
| I do think it's funny that, like, when they run an article that just quotes me, I'm like, okay, thank you. | ||
| Like, I said that! | ||
| But I'm like, do they track, like, all the dishonesty on, like, all, like, corporate media? | ||
| No. | ||
| Just on the right. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Or, like, just people on Twitter. | ||
| They formed as a counterweight to the Conservative Media Research Center, and it was, like, in 2004, and they were It's a propaganda. | ||
| And they were known for their criticism of, and it's quote, war on Fox News, end quote. | ||
| So yeah, they've always, it was basically, it is the anti- It's a propaganda. | ||
| Media research center. | ||
| They just hate Rupert Murdoch. | ||
| If they don't have an enemy to go after, then they don't have a reason to exist. | ||
| So they're like creating enemies to- The agenda that they have is just a progressive agenda. | ||
| So it's like, you know, if Catholics are getting together and they're doing Catholic things, you can narrow down like the things that they're going to be doing because they're doing Catholic things, right? | ||
| Like stuff that Catholics do, things that pertain to the religion. | ||
| If these, if you're a progressive think tank, Then you can kind of narrow down where they're going to be spending the money and who they're going to be trying to slander and trying to, uh, harm their credibility and stuff because they're progressive. | ||
| So, I mean, they're going to go after obviously, you know, Tim cast and they're going to go after daily wire and they're going to have to Ben Shapiro and there must be, you know, they're going to go after Tucker Carlson, but anyone that doesn't have the narrative that comes for the progressive, you know, narrative in, in, in mind, they're going to go after them. | ||
| Yeah, there must be so little work being done at this place. | ||
| Like, they just must be chilling all day trying to figure out what to do. | ||
| I mean, I know that they're, they're, they just, they have people that just scour the internet and watch, like, conservative shows and then make, you know, posts and say, look, this is why this person's bad. | ||
| This is why this person, you shouldn't listen to them. | ||
| I mean, essentially they give out talking points. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You know, it's like, if you watch the content that Media Matters puts out, you as a progressive know the people you're supposed to hate, you know why you're supposed to hate them, and you have the surface-level arguments against the things that they're talking about. | ||
| Whether it be the daily stuff, like we're a topical show here, they would have a topical show that would be talking about whatever the most recent thing that happened that they have to discredit, or whether you're talking about the more More philosophical stuff like okay, why is it that like you want to make sure that trans people are? | ||
| Represented in women's sports or trans women can play with in women's sports They'll have those kind of talking points and essentially it gives people the arguments that they can take into account We got more big news though from the post-millennial. | ||
| board meetings or whatever and they have the argument that you're supposed to make or that's | ||
| going to be the most effective. | ||
| It's just an information distribution network is what it boils down to. | ||
| We got more big news though from the Postmillennial. | ||
| Rumble under major DDoS attack after CEO pledged to join Elon Musk to fight woke censorship. | ||
| This is uh, man it gets interesting every day. | ||
| Rumble tweeted this out earlier today. | ||
| Update, we are currently experiencing a major DDoS attack. | ||
| Our engineers are investigating and we will report back here with updates. | ||
| A DDoS attack is a cybercrime where the attacker floods a server with internet traffic to prevent users from accessing connected online services and sites. | ||
| It disables the site that is attacked. | ||
| One way to easily explain this DDoS means distributed denial of service. | ||
| So I'd like you to imagine that there's a small door and I have a handful of oversized novelty germs. | ||
| And when I try and shove them all through at once, they get jammed in that door and none of them can get through. | ||
| Now, It's a Three Stooges problem. | ||
| It's a Simpsons joke. | ||
| Yeah, Three Stooges. | ||
| But that's basically what it is. | ||
| Right, yeah, I'll try to go through the door at the same time. | ||
| So a DDoS hits the server with a ton of requests, the server can't answer them all, so then you're basically stuck in this massive line behind fake traffic. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So, it really does... The question is why and who. | |
| Who would do it? | ||
| Who has the capability to do it? | ||
| I think I saw in a post that it was coming, I think they had like a little map up and it was coming from China. | ||
| Really? | ||
| I think he tweeted- I could be incorrect, but I think he- yeah. | ||
| Oh, there we go. | ||
| Looks like- what is this? | ||
| Or it's- The world doesn't like freedom of expression, but we will hold the line. | ||
| Here's a map highlighting where a good portion of the attacks are coming from. | ||
| North Korea or South Korea? | ||
| That looks like North Korea? | ||
| I can't believe that. | ||
| And those tricksters in North Korea, they don't have anything better to do than take Rumble down? | ||
| So, these other dots also show China, but hold on, here's the thing. | ||
| You can redirect your attacks to obfuscate where it's coming from and make it look like it's China. | ||
| It could be a false flag. | ||
| I'd be more willing to bet it's U.S. | ||
| interests trying to shut down Rumble. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Rumble is joining Elon Musk. | ||
| Elon Musk took away an intelligence agency asset in manipulating public opinion because these scumbags are evil. | ||
| So, who has the incentive to attack Rumble? | ||
| It's not China! | ||
| Rumble provides free speech, which is... It's disruptive to the Deep State. | ||
| The Deep State's pissed. | ||
| But you also see Free Hong Kong on Twitter. | ||
| So, I don't think China's any ally of that network either. | ||
| They're not a big fan of free speech. | ||
| Yeah, I imagine Twitter's infrastructure is a lot bigger than Rumble's. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I could be wrong, but... Rumble too, yeah. | |
| Digital Civil War. | ||
| Yeah, I don't know who would want it to have it out for Rumble specifically. | ||
| Services restored earlier today. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's not surprising though. | ||
| I mean, I imagine people try to go after YouTube too, which is YouTube's way too big and just... That must be just too difficult. | ||
| No, YouTube does get hit. | ||
| Yeah, they must. | ||
| Yeah, they do. | ||
| It's just... The CEO doesn't tweet it out when it happens. | ||
| No. | ||
| But people do notice. | ||
| They're often big hits to YouTube and these things happen. | ||
| And also, there are direct attacks on individual YouTubers, which slow them up and cause problems for them. | ||
| It's crazy the level of sophistication you can see in cyber attacks. | ||
| But if I had to make a guess, I'd lean towards leftist and fascist organizations at behest of the U.S. | ||
| government would likely be why Rubble's being targeted. | ||
| But they're losing. | ||
| You add in, man, 2010s, it's all dominated by the deep state, by intelligence agencies and the left. | ||
| And in the beginning of the 2020s, we start to see that shift. | ||
| Now, especially with this last year where Elon Musk, man, I can't believe it's been a year, right? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's been a year since we all cracked open that Louis XIII and cheersed when Elon Musk bought the- Remember when everybody, the first night, and then everybody's like, there's two genders. | ||
| That's what everybody did! | ||
| It's two genders. | ||
| And then they just waited for it. | ||
| Boys have tees, girls have vaginas. | ||
| How insane is it that before Elon Musk bought X, previously Twitter, you could get banned for saying women are not men? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Dude, you'd go to sleep being like, I don't know if I'm gonna wake up with a Twitter account in the morning. | ||
| Who was it? | ||
| Was it Megan Murphy is her name? | ||
| Yeah, she was on my low-value mail last week, actually. | ||
| She got banned because she tweeted, men are not women though. | ||
| Yeah, for four years she was gone. | ||
| That's nuts! | ||
| Insane. | ||
| And that's the real reason that, you know, not that Media Matters in particular is the organization that has the, you know, has the impulse to do this, but they're still protecting a narrative which is The left's overarching narrative, which obviously it's politically correct, and it aligns with what the federal government and powers that be want people to think. | ||
| Like, there is definitely a politically correct narrative that they're trying to control, you know, the ability to discuss. | ||
| To I mean to call it Orwellian is almost it's almost obviously Orwellian and it almost it's using the word so much or we've used the word so much in the past two years that we've it's like it's lost meaning but this stuff really does matter like it's a big deal that you can say there are only two genders and not get punished for that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Like it should never have been a thing. | ||
| There should have been massive outrage nationwide. | ||
| But because of the way that the censorship has been instituted, there was never a time where people were like, OK, we really have to. | ||
| You know, we really have to band together and say something. | ||
| And Musk kind of was the guy that, you know, said, this is the final, this is the last straw. | ||
| You can't kick the Babylon Bee off for making jokes, you know? | ||
| And thank goodness he did. | ||
| And I mean, people do get kicked off of places for making jokes still, just not Twitter, not X, but... | ||
| Well, you got kicked off. | ||
| I just got kicked off of... Well, I mean, I got demonetized on YouTube, like, for life, for a podcast clip on my first strike ever. | ||
| I got... And then I got kicked off of Instagram. | ||
| Nipping the bud. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| This is what they're looking out for. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Big tech platforms know that going after Steven Crowder is hard. | ||
| Not only is he massive in terms of his audience, he also has massive resources from this which provide him great legal defense. | ||
| Now, you on the other hand, they're probably thinking, look, if this guy gets big and gets several million followers and starts making millions of dollars, we're not going to be able to stop him. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Stop him now before he can get big. | ||
| This is what they're doing. | ||
| I'm going to be Rappaport. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They're just going to have to put a thing on my label. | |
| Oh, Pig Dick Instagram! | ||
| Slop dick! | ||
| Slop dick, that's what he's saying, dude. | ||
| But this is the game they're playing. | ||
| And so, when all these leftists are like, cancel culture's not real, blah blah blah, I'm like, most of the people who get banned are small accounts. | ||
| Regular working class dude opens a Twitter account, has a couple hundred followers, tweets MAGA, they ban him. | ||
| And this guy has no one to tell. | ||
| Zero recourse, yeah, all you can tell is his friend at work being like, crazy out here, you know, I'm on my eighth Twitter account or whatever, and you just go, yeah. | ||
| Man, the nasty thing about censorship is when you don't know what's happening. | ||
| Like the Soviet Union, I wonder what it would have been like to live in 1954 Soviet Union, like how horrifying- My parents did live in 1954 Soviet Union, it sucked! | ||
| Were they like just not able to talk about- Like, everybody's a spy! | ||
| Like, literally, the whole thing is that everybody you know is a spy. | ||
| Like, my grandmother, I used to do a joke about this, my grandmother, in probably right around 1954, because it was right after the war, she was living in, like, I think Moscow or something, in some apartment building, you know, and she got a knock on her door from her neighbor, this woman, and this woman's like, hey, do you, have you seen my husband? | ||
| Like, I haven't seen my husband in a few days. | ||
| Have you seen him? | ||
| And my grandmother's like, no. | ||
| Haven't seen him. | ||
| Nobody hears from him for three years, okay? | ||
| Until a letter arrives from the husband to the wife, and what happens is he's explained, he goes, he was in the lobby of the building, and you know, like, you live in an apartment building, you're like, you know your neighbors, you make a small talk, and he goes to one of his neighbors, he goes, hey, you want to, like, hear a joke? | ||
| And the guy's like, oh, okay, whatever, and he tells him a joke, and it was an anti-government joke, and then the neighbor ratted him out, and he got ten years in Siberia. | ||
| For literally just telling, like, you know, just in passing, small talk, wanna hear a joke? | ||
| It's like Soviet gray Russia, like, let's lighten things up, and it's like... The stories I've heard are worse than that. | ||
| Yeah, but I'm saying, that's ten years of, you know, breaking stones. | ||
| Stories, uh, the story that I mentioned, that I've told before, is a friend of mine from Ukraine said... | ||
| In this apartment, there's two apartments, they're next to each other, it's like an old communist style Soviet block, and there were two families that lived there, and they did not like each other. | ||
| So one day, one family said, I got an idea, called the police and said, oh, they're making anti-government statements. | ||
| The next day, the whole apartment was empty. | ||
| And it makes me think that guy in the lobby, when that guy went and told the joke to the guy, the guy who's hearing the joke could be thinking, like, this could be a government agent testing me to see if I'm gonna report him. | ||
| It's real game theory, where that guy's like, well, if I don't report him, I might be tested right now, so if I don't do it, then... | ||
| Like, you want to be the first person to act almost, right? | ||
| And I guarantee that there are tons of people in corporate America that lived like that all the time in fear of using the wrong pronoun or saying the wrong, you know, saying the wrong thing or whatever. | ||
| And it's not as dramatic as people go to the gulag, but they just lose their job because they go to HR and HR fires them, you know, because they said something insensitive. | ||
| And so you're constantly afraid. | ||
| I can't make this comment. | ||
| I can't say this. | ||
| And if I don't call someone out, if I do hear something, someone could see or overhear us and then I get implicated too. | ||
| So it's that fear that keeps everybody in line. | ||
| That's why it's so important for people to stand up and say, F you. | ||
| I'm not doing it. | ||
| I'm not doing that at all. | ||
| We pretty much have kicked the bucket over, but I could see like a totalitarian social media system where if you're watching video, you're online browsing, and you see something that should be reported and you don't report it, they're gonna be like, they flag your account. | ||
| That's not gonna happen in the United States because we got ahead of the ball, but I could see that in China being like, It's like your front facing camera turns on and you just get connected. | ||
| You're like, why did you not record it? | ||
| I'm not so confident that it wouldn't happen here. | ||
| Like, it's not over here. | ||
| This fight is not over. | ||
| We live in kind of a bubble. | ||
| So we see the people that are fighting back, but I'm not so confident that that's something that's hit the broader country yet. | ||
| And understand this, Danny. | ||
| They're already turning your front-facing camera on to take a picture of you. | ||
| Oh, for sure. | ||
| So, uh, a couple years ago, I had, I, there's a, there's a phone, I forget what it's called, the McLaren phone or whatever, and it, the front-facing camera's mechanical. | ||
| It, when you turn it on to take a picture, it slides, it goes, and slides out. | ||
| So my girlfriend, I'm like, hey, I'm going to get a Galaxy. | ||
| You can use my phone instead. | ||
| And then she's browsing a website when all of a sudden the camera comes up and then goes right down. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Really? | |
| What that means is, on a regular day-to-day basis, your front-facing camera is probably taking pictures of you. | ||
| Oh, for sure. | ||
| So everybody out there, I know what you're doing on those websites. | ||
| They're probably taking pictures of you. | ||
| No, Joe, those are not flattering photos. | ||
| Those facial expressions. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Not flattering photos. | |
| And who knows? | ||
| We should exclude that picture. | ||
| But with the cancel culture stuff, I mean, this is more my industry, but there's no comedy shows or movies anymore. | ||
| You know, like, when was the last, like, can you name a comedy TV show right now? | ||
| New York City right now has the biggest promotion, every bus and every taxi cab right now, for Big Bang Theory, a TV show that's not even on anymore. | ||
| And was never funny to begin with. | ||
| Regardless of what you even think about that, it's not on right now. | ||
| Why are they promoting it? | ||
| Like, it's, like, the new hit show of, like, I guess maybe The Strike or what, but, like, it's huge promotion, but, like, there's no comedy shows anymore. | ||
| Is it because people aren't taking risks? | ||
| Yes, because like you can't take like nobody wants to take risks because of like basically the the essentially like climate And then you know like you who wants to be caught at work laughing at a joke That is like gonna get you fired at work. | ||
| You know like you can't talk like New York's already caught me Dude, you're not gonna go to work and talk around the water? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Dude, the last big comedy movie was 2014. | |
| That's why I'm not there. | ||
| The last huge hit comedy movie was 10 years ago. | ||
| What was it? | ||
| I think it was Ted 2. | ||
| Oh my gosh. | ||
| I'd say TV show wise, Rick and Morty would not get super offensive, but they got rid of Justin Roiland. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And he's full of jokes that'll put you in jail now. | |
| I'd say TV show wise, Rick and Morty would not get super offensive, but they got rid | ||
| of Justin Roiland. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, well exactly. | |
| I mean, I'll say, it's always sunny in Philadelphia. | ||
| South Park. | ||
| Yeah, they own that show. | ||
| Right any sort of like the only thing they are still exist are these holdovers from literally like why don't why don't | ||
| we make? | ||
| A show years ago like a modern version of Seinfeld called Polish Chuck | ||
| Sure, I don't know if that's the best title, but But I might actually be I don't know | ||
| Yeah, maybe. | ||
| Maybe it's so bad that it's good, but sure. | ||
| The problem is, in terms of distribution, you know, you can get on YouTube, but then they go, hey, we just gave you a strike. | ||
| Rumble it is. | ||
| Yeah, on Rumble, and then, you know. | ||
| We're not far away from being able to do that, for sure. | ||
| Are your comedy shows somber? | ||
| Do people get lit up in life? | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| Stand-up is untouched. | ||
| Obviously, if you go watch stand-up on Comedy Central or something, if you go look at... I do live streams on YouTube for my shows, and sometimes when I'm doing a live stream, Comedy Central, their YouTube page, this is how bad it's gotten for them and how badly they destroyed their brand, where they have 11.6 million subscribers on YouTube, And they'll do these stand-up live streams and there'll be 300 people watching. | ||
| Because there's just like nobody like the YouTube algorithm stopped showing their thing to anybody that subscribed to them because people rejected it for so long that they're just like all because they're doing woke stuff. | ||
| They just at some point everybody signed up for Comedy Central because they like Bill Burr and Dave Chappelle and all that Kevin Hart all that stuff and then basically right around Trump which is like a lot of stuff they were you know all the diversity stuff and they go hey we need to have this needs to be more representative and you go Fear not, good sir! | ||
| Just because someone is a certain category, like, doesn't make them good at comedy. | ||
| That's true for literally everything. | ||
| Yes, exactly, but comedy's really true, and so, and it's like, you know, it's very evident, | ||
| like, at least there's some stuff that's like, you know, whatever. | ||
| Yeah, avant-garde maybe. | ||
| Fear not, good sir. Fear not. | ||
| Fear not, Phil. | ||
| Fear not, we are winning. | ||
| Phil knows the story. | ||
| I'm pulling up. | ||
| I do. | ||
| Argentina elects anarcho-capitalist Javier Mele president. | ||
| Today begins the end of Argentina's decline, said The Economist during his victory speech. | ||

Yeah. | |
| Is about to do this in New York City, but just not not on and. | ||
| Not because he wants to. | ||
| They just have a crazy budget. | ||
| They closed libraries on weekends now. | ||
| Cardi B was complaining about it. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Now, hold on. | ||
| Hear me out. | ||
| This could be like a libertarian paradise, okay? | ||
| In Argentina? | ||
| No, in New York City. | ||
| The cops are destroyed, you can't do anything about it. | ||
| And here's what happens. | ||
| First, it's a stable neoliberal state, so there's a bunch of laws. | ||
| Then things start breaking down and you get anarcho-tyranny. | ||
| But after anarcho-tyranny, you get the collapse of government institutions, you get anarchy. | ||
| Yeah, the problem is you can't have guns. | ||
| No, no, that's anarcho-tyranny. | ||
| Like, the cops will be like, well, this law-abiding citizen is going to prison, but once the anarchy phase happens and there's no cops anymore because they've been abolished, now you can do whatever you want! | ||
| I do not want to live in New York City when you can do whatever you want. | ||
| So here you are now, Argentina elects Javier Millet. | ||
| This is a guy who's roasted the left, he's called a mierda over and over again. | ||
| You swear in a different language because most people don't know what you're saying. | ||
| Some people are saying, as Brexit signaled the victory of Donald Trump in the next election in the United States, this right here, this is a landslide victory for an anti-woke anarcho-capitalist. | ||
| A lot of people are like, Trump's gonna win. | ||
| There's something that people need to recall or think about when it comes to this guy. | ||
| Argentina has like a hundred and fifty percent inflation or something like that. | ||
| So prices have tripled since 2020. | ||
| Yeah, comparing Argentina... I think that's what I saw is there. | ||
| No, but I mean like, yeah, what do you think's going on with the average person? | ||
| It's not a hundred and fifty percent. | ||
| We're talking about I mean, when I moved to New York City, it was dollar-sliced pizza, now it's dollar-fifty pizza. | ||
| There's no dollar-sliced pizza in New York City. | ||
| And also, this has been going on in Argentina for multiple years, too. | ||
| And it was going on long before our inflation kicked in in the past two years. | ||
| And the only reason I'm saying this is because Libertarian ideas, as much as I like them, the average person is not at the point where they're like, screw the whole government yet. | ||
| So the American population... And again, you're talking to a guy that loves the idea of cutting the government as much as possible. | ||
| Donald Trump is winning among 18- to 34-year-olds. | ||
| I mean, he's not badly losing in New York right now, which is crazy. | ||
| I know. | ||
| New York is D plus 27 and Biden's winning by 10. | ||
| That's insane. | ||
| Insane, yeah. | ||
| And the poll oversampled two-to-one Democrats, meaning it should Yeah, it should be way higher. | ||
| I 100% like everything you're saying. | ||
| I just want people in America to at least remember that Argentina's conditions and the United States' conditions are significantly different. | ||
| You know what this kind of reminds me of? | ||
| You know how when Elon bought Twitter and then he fired two-thirds of everyone who went there and everyone goes, I wonder how this is going to work out? | ||
| Because if he can fire two-thirds of Everybody why can't Facebook go to fire and YouTube and all the stuff so I wonder if this is gonna kind of Be like a bit of a test run where he goes. | ||
| You know what we don't need a cultural diversity committee We definitely don't whatever and he was gonna scrap it and he'll probably be like look. | ||
| It's fine I'm I went to grocery store the other night And uh, we like to buy these little salamis, I don't know if you guys have seen them in the basement, where it's like three different kinds and there's maybe like 20 slices of each. | ||
| It was $12 for a pack. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Dude, a year and a half- a year or so ago it was like $7.50. | ||
| Oh yeah. | ||
| And so when we were ringing them up, my girlfriend's like, this is $12! | ||
| And I'm like... | ||
|
unidentified
|
Whoa. | |
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| That's crazy, dude. | ||
| I mean, yeah, I go out for to eat in New York. | ||
| And a lot of times, you know, like you'll go on Google Maps or whatever, and then they'll have the menu on there. | ||
| And a lot of times the menu that they'll have in Google Maps will be like two years old. | ||
| And then you go in there and you see the difference from two years ago and you go, wow, like literally. | ||
| And it's never going back. | ||
| Like a taco at Taco Bell is like, what is it, like three bucks an hour or something? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| No, no, no. | ||
| Like a gordita crunch or whatever is like three fifty. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| What was it? | ||
| A McDouble is three dollars. | ||
| It used to be a dollar. | ||
| In a couple years, you'll have the $5 menu for the stuff that used to be the dollar menu. | ||
| But the key thing is it's like certain like for commodities, commodities are competitive and they will probably, but like for prices at a restaurant and stuff, like they're not, it's the grocery, it's not going back. | ||
| Eggs can maybe come down or whatever, but like restaurants, they don't lower prices. | ||
| I'll tell you this, I went to the grocery store and I like me some heavy whipping cream in my coffee. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| They didn't have it. | ||
| And consistently now over the past year, the grocery store has not been carrying heavy cream. | ||
| And when they do, we grab some and then it's gone for a few months. | ||
| So we have to go to other places. | ||
| We have to go to local farms or one of the specialty organic shops to get like the organic farm cream. | ||
| But a couple of our local grocery stores typically don't carry it all that often. | ||
| Now, I'll tell you my theory. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I'm wondering if the profit margin for derivative products is higher than for the pure product. | ||
| Meaning, if the company says, we can sell a pint, or whatever, a little carton, a pint of heavy cream, and we'll make $1 per carton, or whatever, If we take that same amount of cream and sell it to people who are going to make whipped cream or butter, we might make $2 per pint because of the derivatives. | ||
| I'm wondering if that's why the production has gone down and the stores aren't carrying it as much. | ||
| Very possibly. | ||
| I mean, shrinkflation is also crazy right now. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| Truth Social filed a defamation lawsuit against 20 media companies. | ||
| This is breaking the past 10 minutes. | ||
| Really? | ||
| We'll pull that up in a second. | ||
| 10 minutes ago, Disclosed TV... Please don't be Tim Cass. | ||
| Please don't be Tim Cass. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Please don't be Tim Cass. | |
| Well, we'll pull that up in the next one. | ||
| We'll wrap this one up, and we'll pull that one up in a second. | ||
| So yeah, Javier is, I mean, it's, in my opinion, it's great. | ||
| I love the idea of giving anarcho-capitalists or... I mean, you don't live there! | ||
| Let's just let it ride, man! | ||
| I mean, the thing is, I think that they're going to work, you know, at least in the short term, because the Conditions that they've set up in the past in Argentina. | ||
| Everyone is everything is is so all the money that they have is going straight to government and government industry or debt servicing is costs are like I'm sure they're gonna have to they're gonna they've they've gone like I think they've they've They've had like three times they've had to restructure their debt, so they'll have to do it again because they have to get dollars to peg their... By the way, the fact that the United States did not like re-service their debt like two years ago or whatever, at a low, is insane. | ||
| I don't even want to talk about it because there's nothing that can be done. | ||
| When interest rates were zero and they're like, people are like, why don't you refine? | ||
| And that was also when Trump was like, Hey, we should refill the strategic petroleum thing when gas was like, Oh yeah. | ||
| And everybody was like, well, the fact that you're suggesting it means we shouldn't. | ||
| So yeah. | ||
| So yeah. | ||
| I mean, that is a frustrating turn of events that when things were cheap and, and, and good, we didn't seem like obviously in hindsight, it seems so obvious, you know, interest rates couldn't be, Lower, possibly. | ||
| I guess the problem was Trump at one moment tried to be like, maybe we should take these bad boys negative. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I can't speak to that. | ||
| I don't know at all. | ||
| This Malay guy, I thought at first he made me nervous because he was screaming about, he was angry and screaming. | ||
| I'm like, oh, that sounds like Hitler. | ||
| But then I gave him a chance. | ||
| I was like, let's hear this. | ||
| You know where Hitler lives right now? | ||
| Is he in Belgium? | ||
| Or is he in Argentina? | ||
|
unidentified
|
He was. | |
| Bariloche. | ||
| But then I started watching him, and I really, really like his personality, Malay's personality. | ||
| And also, I didn't know, but he wants to take Argentina off the peso and put them on the U.S. | ||
| dollar. | ||
| Well, they're gonna peg the peso to the dollar. | ||
| I imagine the CIA is behind this guy now, and that's probably why he won. | ||
| I don't know, man. | ||
| CIA was likely behind Lula in Brazil and that didn't work out great. | ||
| I don't think the CIA would be behind a guy like this. | ||
| I think the CIA would be opposed to a guy like this because nowadays the federal government and the narrative that is pushed is not a right-wing small government narrative. | ||
| It's definitely a big government I thought that the powers that be, the authoritarian powers that be, would not want him in power because he's a populist libertarian, but then the people are like, well, but the liberal economic order needs all the help it can get, so if Argentina wants to join as a partner by taking the US dollar on, then maybe it's worth it. | ||
| Because this whole crypto, like... | ||
| Economy thing is very... it's promising. | ||
| It's better than just sucking it in and being like, well, in 10 years, my car is going to cost $350,000. | ||
| Oh, well. | ||
| That's not sustainable. | ||
| And it just can't get much worse for them. | ||
| They're just obviously at a point where enough people are like, you know what? | ||
| This guy cannot screw it up worse than it already has been screwed up. | ||
| All right. | ||
| I know, ladies and gentlemen, we've got so much news here. | ||
| We've got breaking news. | ||
| We've got a truth social filing a defamation case. | ||
| It's massive. | ||
| It's breaking. | ||
| We're gonna get to that in a second because we have more breaking news right now. | ||
| This is tweeted from Elon Musk. | ||
| He says fraud has both civil and criminal penalties. | ||
| Ken Paxton, Attorney General of the great state of Texas, has announced an investigation into media matters for potential fraud, saying, The Office of the Attorney General is opening an investigation into media matters for potential fraudulent activity. | ||
| Under the Texas Bureau Organization's Code and Deceptive Trade Practices Act, the OAG will vigorously enforce against nonprofits who commit fraudulent acts in or affecting the state of Texas. | ||
| Attorney General Paxson was extremely troubled by the allegations that Media Matters, a radical anti-free speech organization, fraudulently manipulated data on X, formerly known as Twitter. | ||
| Quote, we are examining the issue closely to ensure the public has not been deceived by the schemes of radical left-wing organizations who would like nothing more than to limit free speech by reducing participation in the public square, said Attorney General Paxson. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, come on! | ||
| Tell me you are blackpilled, okay? | ||
| We are looking at a major turn. | ||
| Ken Paxson, of course, I'm not surprised to see him doing this. | ||
| This dude means business. | ||
| If Missouri follows suit, because they announced first, they were looking into it. | ||
| Paxton probably saw that and was like, hey man, we're on board. | ||
| Announces this. | ||
| Potential criminal invest- or literal criminal investigation, potential criminal charges of the people at Media Matters. | ||
| I gotta say this, Elon Musk, IP ban all Media Matters employees. | ||
| No question. | ||
| If you want to argue free speech, I'll argue free speech. | ||
| If you want to argue they disliked things that were said, argue things that they disliked things. | ||
| But if you are saying you have proof they manipulated the platform for fraudulent activities, you are the judge and the jury here. | ||
| So I think it's fair to say, if you are using a platform to engage in fraud, criminal and civil | ||
| tort violations, then you should be banned. Martin Shkreli replied to that tweet by Elon Musk, | ||
| and he just goes, can confirm. I'm friends with him. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He's a man. | |
| Fraud has consequences. | ||
| He seems great. | ||
| Oh, he's the man. | ||
| Barn is the man. | ||
| Oh, he's so funny on, at least on X. I know a lot of people hate him. | ||
| I think he's hilarious. | ||
| I think he's great. | ||
| He's a man. | ||
| What's, uh, if this Media Matters gets found guilty, liable for fraud and everything, then what, would they have to pay out damages? | ||
| Criminal. | ||
| It's like, that's criminal. | ||
| I don't know who that person is. | ||
| It's going to be the people. | ||
| So what's going to happen is, with a fraud investigation for a charity, they're not going to go, media matters committed fraud, they're going to say, John Smith, whoever's the head of that, fake name, you know, John Doe or Jane Doe, said these things fraudulently in an effort to engage in these behaviors. | ||
| So they'll take out the employees that committed fraud, will get their criminal filings, and then the company itself, is it going to take a civil hit? | ||
| Because it's got 11 million in assets and 21. | ||
| I think this might be the end. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But, like, what stops just some new operation from just coming? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, I mean, all they do is just, like, follow 30 Twitter accounts. | |
| And here's the issue with going up against government. | ||
| Texas has, effectively, unlimited funds. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Your 11 million in assets, bro, that's not enough to maintain a couple car dealerships. | ||
| That was in 2021 was their, what they had on hand was 11 million. | ||
| And so what I imagine happening now is, facing a massive lawsuit from Elon Musk and an investigation from Ken Paxton, they're gonna get buried in legal paperwork. | ||
| They're not gonna be able to afford the lawyers. | ||
| They deserve it. | ||
| They've really, really screwed the pooch on this. | ||
| They went too far. | ||
| If they actually doctored up images to get advertisers to leave the company, that is absolutely trash. | ||
| The issue is, they didn't have to do it before, but they're desperate. | ||
| What is happening now with the narrative machine, the neoliberal, neoconservative Uniparty, is they are so desperate because they're losing every day, they have to engage in more and more extreme activities. | ||
| It used to be that they could make a phone call to one of their cult members at Twitter and they'd say, okay, we understand, we'll do as we're told. | ||
| The FBI? | ||
| Right, the FBI calls up and says, you know, we just think this shouldn't be there if you get our drift. | ||
| Like, you got it, boss. | ||
| Now they're calling Elon and he's like, well actually I'm the richest man in the world, so I got more fuck you money than you can imagine, have a nice day. | ||
| And now they're like, what do we do? | ||
| There's nothing we have, Elon's done nothing wrong, so they must now fabricate it, and that's risky, and it's a losing strategy, and they're gonna lose because of it. | ||
| And the funny thing is they've been doing this stuff for so long that probably it never crossed anybody's mind that this was a bad idea. | ||
| They've been just getting away with this forever, and nobody probably said, hey, this isn't maybe the best idea to do this. | ||
| Yeah, it was like it was incrementally getting worse. | ||
| Well, they just have, like, probably have never had, and they've probably done this to tons of companies. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And just kept getting, they go, yeah, look how many companies we shut down. | ||
| Like, it's worse. | ||
| Well, a lot of companies probably just say, we'll do what you tell us. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Media Matters says, hey, you said a naughty word, and they go, okay, fine, we'll take it down, because it's easier than dealing with a lawsuit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Now they tried, they just ripped away probably, you know, like half a billion in ad revenue, potentially, and Twitter can prove it. | ||
| The funny thing is, these companies don't get it. | ||
| They're gonna be on the hook for 500 million plus. | ||
| Oh, they'll just, yeah, they'll go bankrupt. | ||
| They'll cease to exist overnight. | ||
| Now, fair point, they will start another one and try and reopen another one, but precedent is being set. | ||
| If Republican AGs are now willing to go after for criminal charges, they will not be able to spit up another company. | ||
| The basic strategy of, hey, Elon's racist, didn't work. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It didn't work anymore. | ||
| It used to work. | ||
| It used to be, hey, Elon's racist. | ||
| And then the CEO would be like, no, no, no, no, no, no, I'm not, no, I'm not. | ||
| Advertiser threatened a boycott. | ||
| They'd say, oh, mea culpa, I'm so sorry. | ||
| And then everyone would say, okay, now that you've pledged to the cult, you're free to go. | ||
| But that's not working anymore. | ||
| Elon buys Twitter and laughs in their faces. | ||
| So what do they do? | ||
| Now they have to take it to an extreme. | ||
| Doctoring a circumstance in order to try and get advertisers to pull out and now it's easily provable Yo discovery is gonna be a bitch. | ||
| Yeah Yeah, this is this will be interesting to see if there's actual criminal charges that it's beyond that discovery may lead to expose government exposure Yeah, yeah, I'm willing to bet you will find communications between media matters and people in government. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No question whoo Well, I'd love to see who funds them. | |
| They're paying out $6 million in wages in 2021. | ||
| And I bet it's like one guy getting a million bucks. | ||
| $1.6 million to the executives and then another $6 million to other salaries. | ||
| You can look up the salaries explicitly. | ||
| You can look up their names and how much money they can pay. | ||
| I'm more interested in what do they produce? | ||
| If you even ask them, what have you done? | ||
| We call that right-wing misinformation. | ||
| What do you do here? | ||
| They have a mission statement on the... So they're community notes, basically. | ||
| They've been just replaced by community notes, essentially. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Kind of. | |
| Like, that's what you do, is you just start community notes? | ||
| Yeah, but look, community notes is real, though it can be manipulated. | ||
| Media matters just makes things up. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| It's a 501c3 progressive research and information center dedicated to comprehensively monitoring, analyzing, and correcting conservative misinformation in the U.S. | ||
| media. | ||
| So it's literally a propaganda outfit looking to do what it can to harm people that have different opinions. | ||
| Digital snitching. | ||
| But it's beyond that now because they went out of their way to fake Yeah, evidence. | ||
| I mean, I think you could call that fabrication of evidence. | ||
| Yeah, it's fraud. | ||
| It's fraud. | ||
| Man, tortious interference is crazy enough, right? | ||
| Like, if Phil and Danny had a contract, and then I went to Phil and said, cancel that contract with Danny or else, that's tortious interference. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| They're doing that, but they're also fabricating evidence in order to get away with it. | ||
| That's crazy. | ||
| With one of the most high-profile people on Earth. | ||
| According to the lawsuit. | ||
| Put some people on blast that work for the company. | ||
| This is in 2021. | ||
| Angela Carusone, is that how you pronounce your president and CEO? | ||
| Yeah, isn't that guy like an anti-Semite? | ||
| Made half a million dollars that year, I don't know. | ||
| But he has like a history of posting a bunch of racist stuff, doesn't he? | ||
| If you go back far enough in most people's Twitter and stuff like that, you get some interesting stuff. | ||
| You don't want to see the conversations I had at Taco Bell when I was 14. | ||
| I don't know any of these people. | ||
| David Brock, is that the guy that founded Media Matters in 2004? | ||
| He's still the chairman of the company made 300 grand. | ||
| Yeah, 2000. | ||
| For what? | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| For being the chairman. | ||
| You guys find any misinformation today? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| I'll be around twice a year for a one-hour call. | ||
| Keep looking, guys. | ||
| Pay me 300 grand. | ||
| There's lots of misinformation out there. | ||
| Look, you gotta go watch all the right-wing media. | ||
| It's like some job for someone who literally just watches Ben Shapiro all day. | ||
| Is that misinformation? | ||
| That's what they do. | ||
| Literally. | ||
| Yes, literally. | ||
| And then they get on the internet and they're like a dickhead about it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What's your job? | |
| I watch Ben Shapiro and I'm an asshole about it. | ||
| What more can you expect? | ||
| Well, I don't know how you guys could be blackmailed. | ||
| I mean, I think we're winning. | ||
| And I think the important thing to understand is this. | ||
| On the battlefield, when you see the enemy break ranks, you don't say, okay, we're done. | ||
| You say, charge. | ||
| Now more than ever. | ||
| And you know what I want to say? | ||
| It was a few weeks ago I said this. | ||
| And now what I think we're actually seeing is the storming of the battlefield. | ||
| All of these lawsuits, these people pushing back the pledges to sponsor, to buy ads on X. This is everyone basically saying, we're winning. | ||
| Full speed ahead. | ||
| And you know, what feels like the cavalry going in to finish the route is the government picking up the lawsuit. | ||
| The Texas state government. | ||
| And who was it? | ||
| Missouri state government? | ||
| Is that who said? | ||
| Missouri AG said he was looking into it and AG of Texas announced an investigation. | ||
| That's the cavalry coming in. | ||
| Oh, that's the Riders of Rohan, dude. | ||
| We're looking up the hill and that light's shining down. | ||
| I'm not sure how... The Battle of Helms Deep will be won! | ||
| I'm not sure how accurate this is, but someone is tweeting that the judge that will be hearing the Elon Musk bombshell lawsuit against Media Matters was appointed by Donald Trump. | ||
| Judge Mark T. Pittman is the same judge that ordered the FDA to release the Pfizer files. | ||
| Ooh! | ||
| Oh. | ||
| It's gonna get fun! | ||
| Are there any non-partisan misinformation charities? | ||
| Are they all just partisan? | ||
| They're all partisan. | ||
| Because the term misinformation in modern parlance has been created to say stuff that doesn't line up with the official narrative. | ||
| If it's misinformation, it just means things the government doesn't want you to think. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, we are not done. | ||
| We have more breaking news. | ||
| A tweet from Chris Pavlovsky, the CEO of Rumble, says, Truth Social just filed an unprecedented defamation lawsuit incorporating 20 media companies. | ||
| The tide is finally turning. | ||
| Corporate media and activists are going to feel the heat. | ||
| I want you, this Thursday, when you're sitting down with your family, to say, I'm thankful for the lawsuits that are being filed against these evil neocon neoliberal organizations. | ||
| Truth Social posts on truth. | ||
| They truthed. | ||
| Today, Truth Social filed the defamation lawsuit that is likely unprecedented in history, incorporating 20 publications and even more may be added. | ||
| All of them published the same false information about Truth Social and refused to fully retract their stories. | ||
| To the fake news outlets that think themselves above accountability, we'll see you in court. | ||
| We got it right here. | ||
| filed 11-20-23. This is a crazy week! | ||
| Man! In the Circuit Court of the 12th Judicial Court in and for Sarasota County, Florida, Civil Division, Trump | ||
| Media and Technology versus | ||
| here we go, Guardian News and Media LLC, Hollywood Reporter, The McClatchy | ||
| Company, we have the Miami Herald, Alex Menna, Reuters News, Rolling | ||

| Capital LLC, Benzinga, MarketWatch.com, Forbes Media, Axios, The Daily | ||
| Beast Company, | ||
| GO Media, Doing Business as Gizmodo, Salon.com, New York Daily News, Newsweek, MSNBC, Cable LLC, | ||
| oh I'm sorry, MSNBC, Cable LLC, Mediaite, DMG Media, Daily Mail and CNBC. | ||
| See you. | ||
| Wow. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| So they say this number. | ||
| Wow, this is crazy. | ||
| I heard this news. | ||
| This case is about an unprecedented and seemingly coordinated media campaign by no less than 20 major outlets to attack Trump media. | ||
| They say by falsely reporting that TMTG had lost $73 million. | ||
| Remember, we heard this a few days ago. | ||
| Oh, no. | ||
| Look, I got to tell you. | ||
| There's a lot of people who will be like, oh, why is, you know, oh, Tim Guest is talking about the story, but that story came out earlier in the day or came out yesterday. | ||
| The reason is we fact check and verify things. | ||
| This story came out. | ||
| I read it and said, I'm not going anywhere near this story. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And turns out, once again, it was fake news. | ||
| They say, this number was an utter fabrication. | ||
| Each defendant, in apparent coordination, reported the exact same false number within approximately 24 hours of one another, each citing to a Public Securities and Exchange Commission filing, in which the mystery $73 million loss appears nowhere! | ||
| Do you know who originated this? | ||
| The fake news? | ||
| Seems like it's one of those things, because there's no real journalism in a lot of these sites or whatever. | ||
| It's probably just one person started it. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| And then Rolling Stone's like, okay. | ||
| But they're saying they all cited an SEC filing. | ||
| But you're right. | ||
| But nobody checked on the actual SEC filing. | ||
| And so here's the big deal. | ||
| Times v. Sullivan, the actual malice standard would require for this lawsuit to proceed, the news organizations had to know what they were printing was false. | ||
| That's the actual malice standard. | ||
| Now, these companies are in a serious steaming pile of donkey-ish, if you know what I mean. | ||
| They are going to have to argue When they cited the SEC document, they were unaware the number did not appear in it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Admitting in court, we did not actually read anything we wrote. | ||
| They're gonna have to admit what everybody already knows, which is that they're not really journalists, they're just content creators, essentially. | ||
| That they don't fact check. | ||
| Yeah, they're just like, yeah, we don't... That's hilarious. | ||
| I mean, I just saw it and I rewrote it. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I assumed it was true. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Look, man. | ||
| I mean, that's crazy. | ||
| Let me give you an example. | ||
| I hope there is. | ||
| There's this story about this kid in, I think it was Vegas, who got stomped to death by a bunch of kids. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And so one guy tweets, 15 black kids beat a white kid to death, and it's not being covered because of race, blah, blah, blah, and everyone picks it up. | ||
| And so I watched the video, and sure enough, there's six kids, not fifteen. | ||
| Two of them are not black. | ||
| Four maybe, or maybe three, we're not sure. | ||
| And there's a lot more to the story than just this. | ||
| People don't care about what the, they just keep retweeting the same thing over and over again. | ||
| I stopped and I said, I'm not, I'm not going to, I'm not going to go anywhere near this. | ||
| I mean, this is, this is clearly not true. | ||
| And it got to the point where so many people had published the fake news. | ||
| I made a segment where I was just like, dude, this is fake news. | ||
| So yeah, he should not have been beaten to death, but this is the problem with the corporate press. | ||
| They see a story and they say, roll with it. | ||
| Here's the link. | ||
| Not a single person. | ||
| Read the SEC filing? | ||
| I actually think there's a strong possibility they knew it was a false number and reported it anyway. | ||
| Yeah, because it helps them in some way. | ||
| They're probably all like, you know what? | ||
| We can't have Donald Trump getting elected. | ||
| I'm sure all 20 of these organizations feel that way. | ||
| Where if they can get any sort of piece of information that'll come out, that'll hurt him in any way. | ||
| They're like, let's get it out. | ||
| And they just, that's the objective. | ||
| This is big though, too, because Truth Social is under, I believe, DWAC. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Which is a publicly traded company. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So this negative press means people probably started selling off stock like crazy. | ||
| For sure. | ||
| And now there's massive damages. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| This is gonna be huge. | ||
| Come on. | ||
| So are you blackpilled still? | ||
| I mean, this is tremendous. | ||
| People are fighting back in huge numbers. | ||
| It's crazy that these businesses don't have like a fiduciary obligation to like they're like the actual just just keeping their own businesses alive, you know to just be smarter than that, but I don't I guess I don't know who's running these things because Well, I mean if their goal if like the market watch and CNBC didn't check on that like I understand Rolling Stone they don't know what their head from their ass, but like Oh, dude, NBC News may as well be Media Matters. | ||
| NBC News has a political team that is known, no question, and is non-controversial for making things up. | ||
| In one instance, they even ran a picture of me on the Today Show over a fake story. | ||
| It's been a long time, but the writer included a false statement. | ||
| And then a bunch of other outlets like Variety and I think Deadline picked the story up, cited the false news, NBC within minutes removed the false citation, so it was out of their story, creating a circular loop of fake news with no source. | ||
| It's masterful what they do and how they've created fake news. | ||
| And they probably got away with it. | ||
| For so long. | ||
| Like, they were probably doing this for decades. | ||
| There must have been some sort of buffer period where, like, journalism, there was, like, legitimate, like, you know, journalism, like, the Watergate, all that stuff, and then it switched over to this slowly, and nobody called them on it forever. | ||
| This kind of stuff is a phenomenon that has arisen with the internet. | ||
| With the internet, yeah. | ||
| Like, as long as there was, like, cable news, you had your general... | ||
| Well, the thing is, I think about that sometimes, though, because if they wanted to spread some fake story before the internet, it would have been even harder to refute, because if that one person can't get some sort of, like, you know, TV show to cover them... But it wasn't as polarized and, like, people weren't attacking other Americans, like, that had different opinions. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| If you think about it, like, when I started, like, watching news a lot was right after 9-11, right? | ||
| So that 9-11 happened, and it's like, okay, that's what I'm paying attention to news. | ||
| And I used to watch MSNBC all the time and from like 2001 until 2010, 2009, something like that, MSNBC was perfectly, it seemed perfectly normal, right? | ||
| Like Joe Scarborough had a nighttime show and he was, you know, he was a Republican that acted like a Republican and sounded like, you know, your standard Republicans and stuff. | ||
| And it was in like 2010-2011 when you started, when I stopped watching MSNBC because I just felt like it didn't have anything other than the progressive perspective. | ||
| So I think that once the internet and social, once social media became so popular and you had your big tech companies starting to realize and make moves with the powerful You know, products that they created. | ||
| Um, I think that's when it really started. | ||
| So I think, I think this all ties in with the whole social media and your cell phone. | ||
| Yeah, probably because of all the whole, like, clicking. | ||
| I want to, I want to give people an example to understand why you never talk to the press. | ||
| You may have heard about that famous Supreme Court justice who said, don't talk to cops. | ||
| Well, don't talk to journalists either, for any reason. | ||
| Now, you can talk to a journalist if they come from a publication that you know as Honor and Integrity and you're a fan of, that's totally fine. | ||
| But any corporate mainstream press, avoid. | ||
| A guy named Andrew Marantz, he is a scumbag, he is an evil lying prick who writes fake stories for a living, interviewed me several years ago. | ||
| He took my quotes and manipulated them to change what I said. | ||
| But his argument basically is, you literally said these words, didn't you? | ||
| I can place them in any order I want. | ||
| So he took two different quotes from like 30 minutes apart, put them next to each other to create a fake story. | ||
| When Vice News took issue with the lie that he published, this is what he writes. | ||
| An earlier version of this article included a quotation from Tim Pool concerning Vice | ||
| News' coverage in Ferguson. | ||
| The quotation has been removed because it contains several errors. | ||
| Yeah, it's deceptive editing. | ||
| The errors were his. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But he made it seem like the errors were mine. | ||
| So even though he lied in his story when he got caught, even when they're forced to correct under threat of lawsuit, they still blamed me for the fake story they wrote. | ||
| Yeah, and they probably the language was vague enough where they go, you know, maybe someone will interpret it that way, but they were kind of making it out. | ||
| So when I when I called and had my lawyer talk to them and threatened, they said, What do you mean? | ||
| They were quotes from Tim Pool. | ||
| We did remove them. | ||
| And they did contain errors. | ||
| And we said, yes, the errors were yours. | ||
| And they said, everything we said was factual. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And even if they do, even if you finally got a retraction from them, at that point it's like... This is the New Yorker. | ||
| The quotes didn't have errors in them. | ||
| The positioning of the quotes created an error. | ||
| It's deceptive editing. | ||
| You like a good Simpsons reference? | ||
| It's the gummy Venus de Milo. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| You know, it's just like, yes, that happened. | ||
| And so I told him, I know you recorded the conversation and released the other tapes. | ||
| He's like, no. | ||
| And the audiotapes prove that he created a fake story. | ||
| And there's, I mean, there's been no shortage of people, like Dave Portnoy all the time, where people want to interview him, and he goes, okay, fine, happy to interview you, just let me record it. | ||
| And they go, no. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| They go, what do you mean? | ||
| Like, I'll just, I just want to hit record on my phone? | ||
| Because, never talk to, never talk to these people on the phone. | ||
| They'll call you up and they'll say, hey, how's it going? | ||
| And you'll say, pretty good. | ||
| And they'll be like, what'd you have for dinner? | ||
| And you'll be like, uh, pizza. | ||
| And they'll be like, thanks, bye, click. | ||
| Then they'll write, he called me on the phone and made an, and engaged in an anti-Semitic screed. | ||
| And you'll be like, no, I didn't. | ||
| But he did. | ||
| Here's the phone record that proves it. | ||
| Yeah, exactly. | ||
| They just lie. | ||
| They will lie. | ||
| And then what are you supposed to do? | ||
| When you sue, they'll be like, your honor, we had the conversation. | ||
| He called me. | ||
| What do you want me to say? | ||
| And they'll be like, okay, there you go. | ||
| And, you know, for you, it's just like the hassle of suing, unless you have a ton of time and money on your hands, just for most people, it's not even worth doing. | ||
| Or it's just not possible. | ||
| And they probably got away with it for so long that they're just like, yeah, this is what we do, this is how we operate. | ||
| Let's talk about, uh, hmm. | ||
| We're gonna get spicy with it. | ||
| Ladies and gentlemen, well, we got a lot of crazy news going on these days, and it seems like there's a lot of good news with these lawsuits and stuff. | ||
| Here's a story from TimCast.com. | ||
| Democrat congressman says Trump, quote, has to be eliminated. | ||
| He's not only unfit, he is destructive to our democracy. | ||
| It's not a joke. | ||
| It is a literal quote. | ||
| Let me play the clip for you and we'll get it going. | ||
|
unidentified
|
To Trump, of course. | |
| Now, and his recent true social post is incredibly, incredibly scary for anyone that might be | ||
| trying to op work in government. | ||
| And it is just unquestionable at this point that that man cannot see public office again. | ||
| He is not only unfit, he is destructive to our democracy, and he has to be eliminated. | ||
| Our democracy means not yours? | ||
| He has to be eliminated! | ||
| Now hold on! | ||
| This story is from Today, published by Adrian Norman at TimCast.com, and we have this from CNN. | ||
| Published today. | ||
| Trump releases doctor's note saying he is in excellent health. | ||
| Of course, the implication is Trump is, for one, trying to earn votes by saying I'm healthy, but also there is a serious concern that something may happen to him. | ||
| Yeah, today's also Joe Biden's 81st birthday. | ||
| Happy birthday, Joe. | ||
| He blew it in the What was it, the partying of the turkey today or something like that? | ||
| What, did he kill him? | ||
| No, he just... He was so, like, out of it, he just snapped the turkey's neck. | ||
| He just got confused. | ||
| He was supposed to do that, man! | ||
| He was confused between Taylor Swift, Britney Spears, and Rihanna, I think. | ||
| Oh, okay, yeah, yeah, I think, yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| What were they thinking, putting a guy who's suffering dementia in front of a prompter? | ||
| Well, they're not admitting it, though! | ||
| What are you supposed to do? | ||
| But I'm saying, like, you give a teleprompter with words he doesn't recognize and names he doesn't know, and he's like, Taylor... Spears? | ||
| Britniana? | ||
| I don't know what I'm talking about here. | ||
| I mean, yeah, it's honestly like kind of sad at this point because we would never treat any 81 year old this way if they weren't the president. | ||
| Look, look. | ||
| You ever see that viral video of the girl on TikTok wearing the Nirvana shirt? | ||
| And she's like, I don't know what this is. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's just everyone wears this shirt. | ||
| And it's like, it's not just that he's old. | ||
| It's just that it's out of his generation. | ||
| And they're trying to make like they're trying to attract young voters by having him say this. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Taylor Swift. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Sorry, dude. | ||
| I will say what this this like bad for democracy thing that they're saying about, you know, destroying democracy. | ||
| They've been saying this now. | ||
| For eight years. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Like I was promised that he would destroy democracy. | ||
| I was living in Canada in a different country and they promised me. | ||
| I put money on it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I'm still waiting. | ||
| But they literally promised me, they go that the destruction of democracy is imminent if he's elected. | ||
| Then he was elected. | ||
| Then we went through a full term, a pandemic, a like, you know, all this, like all this stuff. | ||
| Then Joe Biden. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And we're still, it seems like a democracy still going. | |
| Joe Biden was elected that would save democracy. | ||
| But that's what I'm saying. | ||
| They always like, you can't say twice that he's going to destroy democracy. | ||
| You had your chance to say that he was going to destroy it. | ||
| It's not destroyed. | ||
| Move on to something else about him. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He's going to destroy whatever. | |
| He's already mega-Hitler, and he's worse than Hitler, and blah blah blah. | ||
| They've literally run out of alarmist adjectives. | ||
| But you can't say the same thing for eight years! | ||
| Obviously you can, because they have been! | ||
|
unidentified
|
I know they can be, but you're like, if this premise was... But hear me out. | |
| Michael Rapoport says, pig dick Donald Trump. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's a new one. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| But he says he's not going to vote for him. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| That's a really new one. | ||
| I don't know if someone with a pig dick would be a dictator or what that has to do with whether a good or bad leader. | ||
| That's a good point. | ||
| But it is an adjective. | ||
| Yeah, but it's a different adjective. | ||
| There you go. | ||
| Trump did some stuff that was like what you would call the bad guy stuff. | ||
| Like, in my opinion, he made his family in positions of power, which I was like, I don't like when politicians do that when they're not qualified. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Um, you know, he gave Fauci the reins of control with the- No, hold on. | ||
| Fauci had reins of control. | ||
| Trump should have put a stop to it. | ||
| Yeah, Trump stood behind him on stage and, like, gave him all these emotions. | ||
| I'm not saying he's perfect. | ||
| I'm not, like, yeah, yeah. | ||
| I'm just saying the whole destroying democracy thing- It didn't come close. | ||
| He did a few things- He's more like status quo. | ||
| With a little goodness sprinkled on top. | ||
| He gave his generals control of the drones, the drone warfare. | ||
| He gave that to his generals, his clandestine drone warfare, which is like, well, that's supposed to be the president's job to decide who gets droned, not the generals. | ||
| Well, not necessarily. | ||
| Other than those three things. | ||
| In fact, if you look at the way that Vietnam went down, when LBJ was getting involved in which targets were going to be bombed, that was really problematic for the war itself. | ||
| So I'm not trying to stomp on you, so go ahead. | ||
| Well, I don't know if he did it in order to make them clandestine or if they were already clandestine, but he made secret droning bomb campaigns, basically. | ||
| Um, but other than those three things, putting family in power, giving the country over to Fauci and the secret drone bombs, he didn't do anything, like, super bad. | ||
| What's that saying of, uh, don't let the, uh, perfect be the enemy of the good? | ||
| Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good. | ||
| Yeah, so, like, that's the thing about, like, criticizing Trump over, like, oh, his family was in government. | ||
| Okay, yeah, and Joe Biden was giving his brother his son. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The counter is Biden for his family power, too. | |
| Hiring your kid is one thing. | ||
| Running secret backroom deals with adversarial nations to benefit your family is criminal. | ||
| Trump wasn't doing that, as far as I can tell. | ||
| He wasn't sending off Don Jr. | ||
| to go be on the board of some North Korean energy company. | ||
| And I've listened to Jared Kushner on a few podcasts recently. | ||
| He's a pretty sharp guy. | ||
| I don't know, I can't speak to Melania. | ||
| Ivanka? | ||
| Ivanka, yeah, yeah. | ||
| But Jared Kushner's a pretty smart guy. | ||
| I think they're all fairly smart people. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I mean... But anyways, if he did destroy democracy, he would still be president, and there would not be an election next year. | ||
| Like, that would be, in my mind, what the destruction of democracy would mean, is that we would just be a dictator for life kind of thing. | ||
| We have the whole spectrum, okay? | ||
| Roseanne and a retired colonel, McGregor, both think there won't be an election next year. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Really? | |
| What does Roseanne think? | ||
| Roseanne thinks there won't be an election. | ||
| Like, and what, it's going to be Biden or Kamala? | ||
| Oh, I don't know, but she said there won't be an election and Michael Malice has a thousand dollar bet with her. | ||
| So if she's wrong, she's got to pay Michael a thousand dollars. | ||
| But what happens if there's the visage of an election where everyone puts in their votes and then nothing happens? | ||
| That's clarified. | ||
| I asked her. | ||
| I said, do you mean like nobody votes and everyone's like, oh no, no election or it's | ||
| like Trump's removed. | ||
| So it's not a legitimate election. | ||
| He said, I think that one, I think that's what she basically said. | ||
| Like it's going to be a weird thing where I could try and it'll, it'll be like a China | ||
| election or North Korea election where everyone kind of rolls their eyes like, yo, this is | ||
| not a line up to vote. | ||
| I don't think that either of them can win that vote, because if there's a fake-looking election, Maus will say, well, there was an election. | ||
| I mean, again, both sides, whatever side loses will claim that there was some sort of funny business. | ||
| That's a guarantee. | ||
| Between Maus and Roseanne... | ||
| The point is that they're having fun ribbing on each other. | ||
| I think they're going to have to go to the next creator clash. | ||
| Someone's going to pay up and they're going to laugh about it. | ||
| It's going to be Roseanne and Michael Malice boxing to decide the final victor. | ||
| Yeah, but I agree, because I've been saying this for some time now, and shout out to Dave Smith. | ||
| When he was here, he brought up, he said, to me, the best thing I mentioned on the podcast with Jack Dorsey was that, I said, if they kept doing this, it would lead this country to civil war. | ||
| And they all laugh, because like, are you nuts? | ||
| Like, what are you talking about? | ||
| And then January 6th, and then the Summer of Love, and now we're at the point where, the reason why I said this back then, 2016 nobody believed actually happened. | ||
| Like, the Democrats think Donald Trump was a Russian spy. | ||
| And they maybe have walked back now, not all of them, right? | ||
| But for years, they were like, Trump is working for the Soviets! | ||
| They've only walked it back enough so that way, if someone challenges him on it now, they'll go, well, maybe not. | ||
| But as soon as someone's like, no, yeah, definitely, they'll jump right in there and be like, oh, yeah, he totally was, too. | ||
| Now you've got Republicans saying, Biden didn't win. | ||
| So 2024, like you said, no one will accept the results. | ||
| So I think Michael's going to lose this one. | ||
| Because no matter what happens, there's not going to be a functional resolution to the election. | ||
| So it may be that Roseanne meant to say nobody will vote. | ||
| It may be that she meant to say Trump will be removed, it'll be a sham election. | ||
| Or, the reality is, we'll all go and vote, and then the results will be challenged, so we'll never actually have a winner. | ||
| In which case, Roseanne will win and Michael's gonna have to pay up. | ||
| I'm really concerned about the voting machines, man. | ||
| That all our votes can go into some digital database and get flip-flopped around and then fed back to us. | ||
| Like, I'm with you. | ||
| I think that in 2024 this election is going to be contested for whatever reason and going to be unresolved for a lot of people. | ||
| So we've got to start developing a way to live accepting that that's reality. | ||
| It's been the reality for the last two elections. | ||
| But this is different. | ||
| 2016, Democrats did challenge the vote. | ||
| They filed lawsuits, they launched campaigns, they lied, they produced fake information, they fabricated evidence. | ||
| 2020, Donald Trump and his supporters launch waves of lawsuits. | ||
| Trump's team wins. | ||
| I think they won the majority of their lawsuits filed, but ultimately didn't get remedy because the determination was the amount of votes challenged wouldn't have resulted in a change in the election. | ||
| The media is lying and claiming that they were thrown out and he lost all of them. | ||
| That's not true. | ||
| What's going to happen in 2024? | ||
| I imagine we're going to get to the point where you're going to get different reports on which state went to who. | ||
| It's going to end up at the electoral vote count. | ||
| It's going to be what the Democrats claimed 2020 was going to be. | ||
| They're not going to be able to call this properly. | ||
| They're going to vote, it's going to be contested, and there's going to be no clear winner. | ||
| That is the lightest prediction. | ||
| Because what may happen between the election day in November and inauguration day in January, and then you've got like the vote count in December or whatever, it's gonna be... I have to imagine every single organization in the country will file a lawsuit. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I don't see how we... it's... | ||
| With 2020, with 2016, you have to imagine that right now, every Democrat lawyer and every Republican lawyer is sitting down saying, they're probably already drafting their arguments. | ||
| Oh, easily. | ||
| The votes have not even happened yet, and they're drafting up a bunch of arguments for standing, for grounds, all of this stuff. | ||
| It's going to be the day after the election, and you're going to see a wave of lawsuits filed. | ||
| In fact, I'm pretty sure this happened in 2016. | ||
| Vaguely remember, when they called Nevada for Hillary, the Trump team announced a lawsuit was being filed against them already. | ||
| And then Trump ended up winning, so, like, nothing happened with that. | ||
| But I could be wrong, but something like that happened. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, if Trump wins, a lot of people's heads are gonna explode in this country. | ||
| Trump can't win in the sense that the media will claim he didn't, lawyers will file lawsuits, and they'll make up a reason as to why he didn't really win, even when he does. | ||
| Yeah, I mean... Because that was 2016. | ||
| Yeah, I don't imagine that's going to be the problem. | ||
| I still think that the ballot harvesting and stuff is going to be the actual thing that solidifies the Democrats winning. | ||
| I think that they've got that in the lock. | ||
| As of right now, I disagree. | ||
| Well, I do think ballot harvesting plays a big role. | ||
| Republicans have been picking up on this narrative. | ||
| People like Scott Pressler have been picking up on this. | ||
| But more importantly, the new poll from NBC showing 18 to 34 year old four year olds are now Republican. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't look, man. | |
| You get a couple of Democrat activists to go knock on a door in New York, which is Biden plus 10 and a D plus 27. | ||
| That 30-year-old's gonna knock on a door, a 30-year-old dude's gonna answer, and they're gonna be like, hey, you get your mail-in vote, how would you like to vote for Joe Biden? | ||
| He's gonna go, is that a joke? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Get out of my face! | ||
| I guess it's possible it won't be Joe Biden though. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| But hold on, even Gavin Newsom will not allow a Democratic recovery enough to beat Trump. | ||
| But my fear, and I do not like living in fear, but this is just like I'm staring at the mouth of the beast, is the electronic voting machines. | ||
| That they will take all the votes, they'll be like, thank you everyone for your participation. | ||
| Gavin Newsom won 51-49. | ||
| Doesn't matter. | ||
| Just like in 2000 when George Bush won 51-49. | ||
| And did Biden beat Trump 50-50.5? | ||
| And what did Biden beat Trump 50 50.5, but none of this matters | ||
| You guys, but you're thinking in terms of 2020 and 2016 2024 is going to be every lawyer in the country filing a lawsuit, all at the same time, over every day, for several weeks, and every court will be jammed up, and everyone's gonna say, we have no idea who won. | ||
| That's like a DDOS attack on the government voting process. | ||
| Or it's a legal riot. | ||
| Is there anything that can be done to mitigate this happening, considering, like, probably, you know, we're not the only people who are talking about this right now? | ||
| You could have like seven blockchains set up to verify the vote. | ||
| I don't think they're going to have that in place. | ||
| Otherwise we could sit around with our fingers up our butts and wait for all hell to break loose. | ||
| First, everyone needs to vote. | ||
| Everyone needs to get their friends and family to vote. | ||
| Everybody needs to reach out to Scott Pressler and say, what can I do to help? | ||
| But the issue is not voting right now. | ||
| The issue is lawfare. | ||
| That's the point. | ||
| Trump could win 80% and they'll argue, clearly the machines are broken, Trump could not have won by this much, and this proves a discrepancy and the election must be redone. | ||
| And you'll get thousands of lawsuits and the courts will start going through them. | ||
| That could be a foreign attempt to stymie our elections is by inciting us to create too many lawsuits on ourselves. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| No, no, no. | ||
| That's impossible. | ||
| For sure. | ||
| It's like a terroristic, they've got us to fear our own system. | ||
| The issue is not that Russia created BLM ads and encouraged Black Lives Matter to make the right wing angry. | ||
| The issue is that Democrats have already stated The leadership of the Democratic Party in 2020, that if Trump were to win, they would encourage in their war game, they said, we would push West Coast states to secede from the Union unless Trump gave in and gave them concessions. | ||
| That was John Podesta, I think. | ||
| It was Podesta and many others who were involved in that war game. | ||
| That is not Russia doing it. | ||
| That is the Democratic Party. | ||
| Oh gosh, it doesn't even need to be a country. | ||
| When I say foreign, it could be a corporation. | ||
| It could be people that are manipulating us to be afraid of each other so that we sue each other and blockade our own... I think this path is inevitable. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't think we lose. | |
| Let me tell you, I think this path is inevitable. | ||
| I don't think we lose. | ||
| I think clearly we're seeing the worldview that we share is much larger, a bigger umbrella, | ||
| and is more likely to win. | ||
| But I was talking to a friend the other day who told me outright, someone I've known my whole life, that a baby at nine months, even if it is about to be born, is a parasite on the mother, and the mother has a right to end it because it's not alive. | ||
| It's a symbiote, not a parasite, it's a symbiote. | ||
| But I'm not speaking to facts, I'm saying this is what my friend said to me. | ||
| And I said, whatever you think, understand that position is fringe and is going to result in serious conflict in this country because Colorado allows that and Oklahoma doesn't. | ||
| But when I heard someone outright say, I will never back down. | ||
| Babies gestated to nine months are a parasite within the mother and the mother can remove it if she wants, even if it ends the life because that's not even a baby, it's not even alive, it's a fetus. | ||
| And I'm like, if the only thing separating Two babies is a layer of flesh from the mother, and the other baby was born, but they're the identical in every other way. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Nope. | |
| Parasite. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, okay. | |
| That's pretty... That's, uh, I think super... Thankfully, I think that's super fringe, but that is still insane. | ||
| However, those are the laws being passed. | ||
| Yeah, I understand that. | ||
| Which is why I actually think we're going to win, because that is super fringe, and no one is like... The average person's gonna be like, why are you nuts? | ||
| Yeah, that's crazy. | ||
| But here's what I realize. | ||
| It's really easy, guys. | ||
| You want to know why it is the Left doesn't care about books in schools? | ||
| Because I had this conversation with a friend, and she was saying, like, I don't hear anything about this, and I'm like, right, you don't have kids. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You don't have kids in school. | ||
| All my friends who have kids are freaking out. | ||
| I'm like, why? | ||
| They're all like, you should see the stuff that my kid learns, and like, basically, they have to deprogram their kids when their kids come home. | ||
| Like, their kids come home, and they say all this stuff, and then they go like, yeah, that's not really true. | ||
| We were talking about Loudoun County and I'm like, why is, why is Virginia, you know, why did Virginia elect a Republican governor? | ||
| Granted, they've elected a lot of Democrats recently, but why did Loudoun County flip and bring in a Republican DA? | ||
| And I'm like, parents are seeing these books. | ||
| The DA arrested a father who was screaming at people for covering up the rape of his daughter. | ||
| And then it's like, here's the issue. | ||
| These liberals don't have children. | ||
| They will cease to exist in a couple generations. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| And not if they can't take the whole place down with them. | ||
| They might, but they're not gonna... Look, 40-year-old millennial women who aren't having kids, they can push whatever ideas they want. | ||
| I'll tell you this. | ||
| Let me do this for you guys. | ||
| Check this out. | ||
| This is Civics. | ||
| Do you approve or disapprove of the way Joe Biden is handling his job as president? | ||
| There is one demographic, one, that approves of Joe Biden. | ||
| Can you figure out what that one demographic would be? | ||
| Cat owners. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, no, no, no, no, no. | |
| Look at the, look at the options. | ||
| You've got age and you've got education and you've got gender. | ||
| I didn't see that part. | ||
| Any, any, okay, so let's say 18 to 34 year olds, do you think they support Joe Biden? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| They do not! | ||
| What about 35 to 49? | ||
| Sorry, they do not. | ||
|
unidentified
|
50 to 64? | |
| Hmm, nope. | ||
| How about 65 plus? | ||
| Hmm, still no. | ||
| Still no, still no. | ||
| Okay, how about... Highly educated. | ||
| Post-graduates? | ||
| Nope, they disapprove. | ||
| Who likes them then? | ||
| Post-graduate women is the only demographic that's so... Of course, Joe Biden. | ||
| Okay, I'm being hyperbolic because I'm not including race. | ||
| Or state from this, I'm saying out of education, gender, party, and age, obviously if you go to Democrats you're going to find much higher approval, substantially. | ||
| The Democratic Party clearly does. | ||
| But in terms of non-party affiliation, out of age and education and gender, only post-graduate females have a high approval rating, a higher approval rating for Joe Biden. | ||
| When did that start ticking down? | ||
| Uh, it was... Was that in the last month? | ||
| It was, uh, it was Hamas attack on Israel. | ||
| Yeah, because you know what it is? | ||
| It's so funny because these are, like, you see all the posts, the videos of posters getting torn down? | ||
| It's all women, pretty much. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| And now they're all, like, Biden's turning his back on us. | ||
| Childless, highly educated women hold these fringe views. | ||
| They're not having kids. | ||
| I just think the future is predictable. | ||
| They're not having kids and the ideas are going to go with them when they go. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| They're going to be a fringe group making demands on young people who are going to be like, what world do you live in? | ||
| You, like, weird communist old woman. | ||
| Yeah, I have to agree with you on that one. | ||
| They're going to get more cats. | ||
| I will say, before we go to Super Chats, we have a new cat. | ||
| We, uh, I mentioned this the other day. | ||
| We captured Seamus. | ||
| And, uh, in a cage. | ||
| And, uh, uh, we brought him to the vet. | ||
| And he got, uh, cleaned up. | ||
| Deep parasites and all that stuff. | ||
| I'm not talking about Seamus 2. | ||
| I'm talking about Seamus 1. | ||
| Seamus 2 is the cartoonist. | ||
| Seamus 1 is the cat. | ||
| Is the cat, yeah. | ||
| Yeah, but apparently he's, uh... Seamus 2 has been demoted. | ||
| So, he was living in our garage, because he found a way in. | ||
| And, uh, so we set up a trap, we caught him. | ||
| Based on how he looked, I figured he was probably, like, eight months old, because cats get- they grow pretty quick. | ||
| And I was correct! | ||
| He is, uh, eight to ten or so months, and, uh, he's a good little dude. | ||
| He's, uh, we broke his spirit. | ||
| He was SCREAMING when he got caught. | ||
| I have to, like, come on. | ||
| It's probably pretty frightening. | ||
| Well, no, it's just like his honor, you know? | ||
| Oh, he's an honorable cat? | ||
| No, it's like it was the indignity of having him in a trap and laughing at him. | ||
| You know, we're like pointing our fingers and laughing. | ||
| What entails trapping a cat? | ||
| Like a raccoon trap? | ||
| Well, they're small animal traps. | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| And the way it works is there's like a metal plate and when the cat walks in it steps on a plate which pulls a piece of metal and goes down. | ||
| Nice. | ||
| And then he can't get out. | ||
| And then we got him cleaned up. | ||
| The good news is he's very nice. | ||
| Nice. | ||
| His spirit's been broken and we've pet him and given him many cookies and he is- Shoutout Seamus1. | ||
| He looks pretty depressed, but he is now property of me. | ||
| Nice. | ||
| And that's it. | ||
| I have dominion over him. | ||
| But he will survive the winter. | ||
| He will survive anyway. | ||
| I mean, yeah, he's about eight to ten months old, so he was born likely around probably last spring. | ||
| And so, I was like, he's not going to survive living out here in the middle with nothing. | ||
| But now he'll make it. | ||

| We got a bunch of awesome documentaries. | ||
| You definitely gotta check out Infringed by Lauren Southern and Jon DuToit. | ||
| It's awesome. | ||
| But let's read your Super Chats right now. | ||
| Josh Berg says, hey guys, first today, I'm looking to build a Wardenclyffe Tower on a micro-scale, something interesting to look up if you don't know what it is. | ||
| Ian, what is that? | ||
| That's Tesla's tower. | ||
| Nikola Tesla built that tower, and he called it Wardenclyffe, and it was a giant long-range electricity... Wireless energy transmission? | ||
| Wireless electricity generator, apparently. | ||
| Or, not generator, but transmitter. | ||
| Transmitter, yeah. | ||
| Interesting. | ||
| I wonder if, like, the main issue with that is that it kills people? | ||
| Because I have to imagine if you're like transporting high levels of energy wirelessly, you're losing a ton of energy and probably creating some kind of disruptive, you know, I don't know, radioactive pulse of some sort. | ||
| Yeah, I think, was he trying to send it underground or something? | ||
| Through the earth maybe? | ||
| Well, I think we've all seen, uh, The Prestige, right? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| That scene where he has all the lightbulbs in the ground and they turn on? | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| That was The Prestige, right? | ||
| Yeah, with Hugh Jackman. | ||
| That movie's awesome. | ||
| What was the other one that was kind of like that? | ||
| Because they always make two movies that are the same. | ||
| There's, like, two movies, each about magicians doing tricks. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
|
unidentified
|
The Prestige. | |
| Catch Me If You Can. | ||
| Is that the one? | ||
| No. | ||
| Catch Me If You Can is a 1956... That's the one I'm thinking of. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's a movie like that. | |
| It's where... Maybe I'm thinking of The Prestige. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's with the guy from the Facebook movie? | |
| I don't know. | ||
| With, uh, what's his name? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Not Catch Me If You Can. | |
| All I know is The Prestige. | ||
| The Illusionist. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Illusionist. | |
| Oh, The Illusionist. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| See, they knew! | ||
| Chet always has the answers. | ||
| I will ask the audience. | ||
| Where are we at? | ||
| Matthew Hammond says, have Danny and Ryan Long written a script for a movie? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, we have. | |
| You two are this generation's Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi, and it is a shame if we did not see something on the screen. | ||
| Well, where's it at? | ||
| What are you doing with it? | ||
| We wrote a script like two years ago, but it's done for essentially... | ||
| It was very of the times, and we tried to basically rewrite it to update it, essentially, and it was very much of that moment, probably a few years ago. | ||
| Too many COVID jokes? | ||
| No, there was no COVID references whatsoever, actually, but part of it involved Twitter it was a whole thing but and like but like like it was basically this like bloggers movie making fun of like left-wing right-wing bloggers essentially I was like played a Ben Shapiro type and Ryan was like be like the head of vice kind of thing and then but my life is bankrupt it's like all this it's like the world has changed so fast and like there was like a whole Twitter angle to and it's just like Twitter different company now it's just it's too different but we're always thinking of ideas the problem is is we're just nobody wants to make them | ||
| How much money do you need to make one? | ||
| A million dollars. | ||
| Let's do it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Alright. | |
| Write me a script! | ||
| Dude, we got lots of good ideas. | ||
| Let's get it. | ||
| Let's do it. | ||
| We'll make a movie. | ||
| Yeah, man. | ||
| Alright, there we go. | ||
| That constitutes a contract. | ||
| Also, it means Ryan Long is now contractually obligated as well. | ||
| I don't want to speak for Ryan Long. | ||
| But we talk about movies all the time because that's like that like when I got into comedy and stuff like I wanted to make movies like I've written many scripts like that's what I've written a movie called Filth City you can check it out it's about it's on Tubi it's about the crack-smoking mayor former mayor of Toronto Rob Ford yeah Rob Ford is it's called Filth City you can check it out so and I like I started in and wrote it so I'm serious I think Ryan's gonna be here next week Yeah, I was gonna come with him, but then I was supposed to be in Edmonton, and then I'm not now, but... So come with him. | ||
| You want me to come with him again? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Maybe, I think I might... Yeah, maybe. | ||
| And then we'll talk about making a movie. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And, uh, you know, we'll have Ian play a scientist who invents a graphene gun. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I hope it's gonna happen. | |
| Oh yeah, dude, you're definitely gonna get impaled at some point. | ||
| It's gonna be so good. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We're looking through the hole and... We should make the hair, like, shooting out. | |
| Yeah, we're gonna have, like, we're looking through the hole being like, this is bad. | ||
| So they already made a graphene horror movie, it's called Splinter. | ||
| Oh. | ||
| You should look it up. | ||
| No, I haven't heard of it yet. | ||
| It's a graphene horror movie. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Look it up, I wanna see, look up Splinter horror movie. | ||
| From 2008? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know. | |
| Trapped in an isolated gas station? | ||
| Still barely know what graphene is. | ||
| Yeah, that's 2008? | ||
| Yeah, that's a long time ago. | ||
| Wow, I didn't realize it was so old. | ||
| Yeah, look at the pictures, look at the pictures of it. | ||
| Go to images. | ||
| You're gonna be like, oh wow. | ||
| Do you see the pictures? | ||
| Oh yeah, the stuff shooting out of his body looks like ferrofluid. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| Ferrofluid. | ||
| Yeah, like graphene. | ||
| Ferromagnetic. | ||
| Graphene turns people into monsters. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| You see, Ian is an agent of chaos. | ||
| I know, he's the only person I've ever known who even references it. | ||
| Let's grab some more superchats. | ||
| Shane H. Wilder says, for my birthday, I'm asking if people are able to please give to my parish a sprinkler busted and flooded the nave. | ||
| It is St. | ||
| Albert in the Diocese of Austin. | ||
| It is also Joe Biden's birthday. | ||
| So instead of giving Joe anything, help this guy's parish. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| Jacob Paradis says, congratulations, Javier Millet. | ||
| Trump is next. | ||
| Absolutely. | ||
| Let's grab some more. | ||
| Lord Lucas says, did you see that Iceland is going Ragnarok? | ||
| No, what does that mean? | ||
| Ragnarok is like the, it's the apocalypse of like the Norse mythology. | ||
| But why Iceland? | ||
| What's going on in Iceland? | ||
| A city split in half and it's about to, a volcano is about to erupt. | ||
| Oh yeah, I saw that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's pretty cool. | |
| A bunch of volcanoes at once erupted. | ||
| Did you guys hear about that last week? | ||
| At the end of last week? | ||
| Really? | ||
| Seven volcanoes were activating at once. | ||
| Seven volcanoes? | ||
| Yeah, but I don't want to get the numbers wrong. | ||
| Seven trumpets? | ||
| And I don't know if it could be confirmed that it was actual activity or not. | ||
| Well, at any given time, there's like 20 different volcanoes erupting on Earth. | ||
| So it was seven that were going at the same time, but it's not like... | ||
| It's super odd. | ||
| There's constantly volcanic activity on planet Earth and it just so happened. | ||
| No, I think you're wrong. | ||
| I think, clearly, the volcanoes erupting are the seven trumpets of Revelation and signaling the end of days. | ||
| This is all from my potential fake news of seven. | ||
| I'm ready for end of days. | ||
| There's approximately 1,350 potentially active volcanoes. | ||
| Yeah, there's like maps you can watch online of volcanoes just going off. | ||
| It's, you know, everyone's always just very worried about, what is it, Yosemite? | ||
| Yeah, that's the big one. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yellowstone. | |
| That's the big one. | ||
| It's Yellowstone, right? | ||
| Yeah, I think so. | ||
| Yeah, that's the one where... I mean, that's just kind of the country exploding, though. | ||
| Yeah, that's just like no sun for two years. | ||
| Yeah, it's like the sides of the supervolcano, it's basically just like the whole northwest of the United States blows up. | ||
| And it's due, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, something like it's like it's like the does it whatever it's a couple hundred thousand years do I think? | |
| Yeah, something like that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sick! | |
| Yeah, if that pops off that no one will even know what happened. | ||
| Yeah, I mean, we might overhear for a minute. | ||
|
unidentified
|
For a little bit, but not too long. | |
| We'll be informed when flaming rocks start landing around us. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, true. | |
| What do we have? | ||
| Well, I guess it depends on donating for what? | ||
| You know, some people are like, my mother is dying or my dog is sick. | ||
| So, um, you know, make it worth it. | ||
| my son achieve his baseball dreams this Christmas, consider donating at Gibbs | ||
| Endigo Douglas Junior Showcase. Couldn't put the link in. | ||
| Well I guess it depends on donating for what. You know some people are like my | ||
| mother is dying or my dog is sick. So you know make it worth it. | ||
| Something more American than a baseball dream. | ||
| Carnal Nature says X would not allow me to subscribe to Premium Plus tonight and | ||
| stating that it is due to me changing my profile photo or screen name within the | ||
| last three days. | ||
| I've been on X since 2014. | ||
| What gives? | ||
| Errors? | ||
| I'll say this too, like, we launched an ad campaign for Infringed. | ||
| It says it's delivered, but there's like some issue with... Yeah. | ||
| They have some bugs. | ||
| I mean, like, think about how much has changed since he took over. | ||
| They, for all the time I was on Twitter, they didn't do anything. | ||
| Nothing changed. | ||
| It was just the same and then all of a sudden he comes in. | ||
| He's like, here's 50 new things So yeah Yeah, fair point. | ||
| All right, where we at? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Let's grab another super chats D.S. | |
| says, Timmy, long time listener, first time superchatter. | ||
| First off, love what you're doing, brother. | ||
| Keep up the great work. | ||
| Second, I had to unsubscribe from the monthly mix only to subscribe directly to Appalachian Nights. | ||
| Blessings. | ||
| Well, I appreciate it. | ||
| That's my favorite. | ||
| Well, it's tough. | ||
| I think Appalachian Nights is probably my favorite. | ||
| It's insane how good it is. | ||
| It's the coffee, by the way, the Casper coffee. | ||
| Danny, you're not drinking enough. | ||
| I'm not drinking enough? | ||
| However much Casper you're drinking, it's not enough. | ||
| You drink more. | ||
| Yeah, okay. | ||
| Done. | ||
| And that'll be the movie deal. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| You don't gotta put it in the movie. | ||
| Some product placement. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, no, no. | |
| None of that. | ||
| None of that. | ||
| You just have to drink a couple glasses. | ||
| Okay, you got some here? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And not on camera or anything. | ||
| You just have to have some. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| There you go. | ||
| And then we'll film the movie. | ||
| I love coffee. | ||
| There we go. | ||
| That's how we do the deals. | ||
| And then, oh, Danny once drank the coffee. | ||
| Danny likes to drink it too? | ||
| He drank it one time. | ||
| And then forever, I can say that. | ||
| And it's worth more than an ad. | ||
| Done. | ||

Avid drinker. | |
| Let's see. | ||
| Polly P. Rice says, I was a tourist in the Soviet Union in 1991. | ||
| No homes had electricity. | ||
| Nobody owned a car except the government officials. | ||
| All dirt roads except for major cities. | ||
| A primitive dump. | ||
| The best part? | ||
| Hot water is centralized. | ||
| When you- in Ukraine, in Kiev, uh, well, I don't know if this is true anymore because I'm not sure what's left of Kiev. | ||
| It's probably mostly fine, let's be real. | ||
| But, um, the hot water in your apartment never runs out. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Because the way they- the way they- Pretty cool. | ||
| It's from the, uh, power plant. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So the hot water- Yeah. | ||
| The hot water that's used to create steam to spin the turbine at the coal plant is recycled through pipes into people's homes. | ||
| Yeah, that's kind of cool. | ||
| Yeah, I think it's clean. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know. | |
| I'll tell you the one story that my parents always tell me is when they were kids in the Soviet Union, whenever you saw a line, you just got in it because you just knew it was something you wanted. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| Always. | ||
| My mom always said, when she was a little girl, if there was a line, she goes, I got in the line. | ||
| And you just waited. | ||
| Because whatever it was, you knew you wanted it. | ||
| So I have this theory. | ||
| I was flying from London to Kiev with a stop in Moscow. | ||
| And in the United States, when you're boarding a plane, they say, now boarding group 1. | ||
| And then group 1 walks up. | ||
| Now boarding group 2. | ||
| And group 2 walks up. | ||
| Sometimes someone from group 3 comes in. | ||
| And then they're like, sir, is this group 3? | ||
| Or they'll just be like, oh, let me in. | ||
| But typically everyone waits. | ||
| In Moscow, they were like, now boarding group one, every single person stormed the gate. | ||
| And they were shoving each other out of the way and waving their tickets at the gate agent. | ||
| And I'm like, I wonder if that's a remnant of the Soviet era, where if you did not fight for food, you died. | ||
| Yeah, for sure. | ||
| So, yeah, you just, yeah. | ||
| A culture evolved where everyone said, I'm going to shove my way to the front or I'm not going to make it. | ||
| Because during the worst elements of the Soviet Union, the families that said, no, no, we'll wait our turn. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Died. | ||
| Every bread line was just January 6th all over again. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| You see a lot of that in China as well. | ||
| Now a lot of Chinese people are like, they're like, oh, why they have no, like no, uh, manners, whatever like that. | ||
| Cause if you had manners, you're going to die. | ||
| Yeah, for sure. | ||
| It's just like a, yeah, it's just natural. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's natural reaction. | |
| Venus Sophia says the only subscriptions I pay for are Axe and Timcast. | ||
| Well, I really do appreciate it. | ||
| There we go. | ||
| Gyro Murphy says, a few weeks ago you said you had big plans for Pittsburgh. | ||
| I run some shops around Pittsburgh and I would like to talk with you about how to bring some solid culture to my city. | ||
| What's the best way to get in touch with you? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I think it's, to be completely honest, it's like impossible. | ||
| I don't, I basically don't have email. | ||
| I basically don't have a phone number because it's impossible for me to actually use. | ||
| And then I have like staff at Timcast who take care of everything else. | ||
| It's just, it like, seriously, it becomes impossible. | ||
| You know, you get a phone number, and then one person will figure out one way to get your number, and they'll share it with everybody. | ||
| It is the downside of being famous. | ||
| It's like, I find myself standing on the precipice of being famous, and like, God, I still like to check my Twitter notifications, because I enjoy, like, hearing what people think. | ||
| And it gets to a point where it's impossible. | ||
| The noise, the feedback becomes so great. | ||
| The amount of phone calls you get in the day, you gotta shut your phone off, it's already on silent, like... | ||
| Man, it is a type of sacrifice, but the benefit is so great to be well-known in society. | ||
| Could graphene solve this? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know. | |
| I don't know. | ||
| Maybe a graphene neural net? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know. | |
| But that'd be a whole other problem. | ||
| Still don't even really know what it is. | ||
| Nope! | ||
| Yeah, I basically just... I don't have email. | ||
| You don't have email at all? | ||
| No. | ||
| The only way to get in touch with me is if you know someone who knows me. | ||
| Slack. | ||
| Corporate chat rooms. | ||
| Or if they can take over that phone of yours. | ||
| Twitter DMs. | ||
| If I follow you on Twitter, you can message me. | ||
| Or if you know someone who works here. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| Then someone walks up to me and says, oh hey Tim, I talked to someone who says this. | ||
| And I'm like, oh okay, great. | ||
| Let's follow through. | ||
| That's about it. | ||
| It's a good filtering system, but we do have big plans for Pittsburgh. | ||
| They're currently input in in the works. | ||
| We are like 50% towards our setup goal for in terms of like organizational and it's going to be tremendous. | ||
| So we're really really excited for this and we've got some big plans for December this I will say now because I want people to get ready for this in the event. | ||
| It does happen. | ||
| We are working on a December 11th event in New Hampshire and we're we're We're it's it's it's probably gonna happen So it's gonna be on it will Mike Lee it will if we do it. | ||
| I believe we're looking at like December 11th Live Tim cast IRL. | ||
| I know it's a Monday, but it'll be big. | ||
| It'll be special. | ||
| It'll be fun and There's a chance it doesn't happen because of the logistics But you know some other stuff and then there's like other stuff working on for the for the month of December before we wrap up the last week of December after like the Christmas week we're not here and Because, uh, I hate not working, but it's just, it's impossible. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No one watches. | |
| It's not that, it's nobody will come. | ||
| So, you know, no, it's IRL, we can't book guests. | ||
| Like, literally no human being is like, sure, I'd love to fly halfway across the country to come to your studio just after Christmas. | ||
| I mean, I'll come. | ||
| I'm in New York and I'm Jewish, but... | ||
| Well, there you go. | ||
| If you need someone on the third day of Hanukkah, it's the 11th. | ||
| The 11th? | ||
| No, I'm talking about after Christmas. | ||
| I'm just doing stand-up in New York. | ||
| After Christmas to New Year's, you've got the few days after Christmas, ain't nobody's gonna, nobody wants to come. | ||
| And then the weekend, we don't do shows. | ||
| Take the week off. | ||
| So that's what we're doing. | ||
| Yeah, just take the week off. | ||
| That's what we're doing. | ||
| Because it's just like, otherwise... You just work hard enough. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Alright, where are we at? | ||
|

|
Let's grab some more Super Chats. | |
| Mike Leonberger says, Love what you're doing with Skate. | ||
| How can I align my newish brand, Spirit of Fear, with what you've got planned? | ||
| I want to support and participate. | ||
| I don't know! | ||
| Right now we're working on The Boonies, the new show. | ||
| We pre-recorded a podcast with Richie Jackson, Taylor Silverman, and Dennis Williford. | ||
| This is, uh, gonna go up Friday for, uh, uh, on Black Friday. | ||
| Culture War on Tenet Media. | ||
| And, uh, basically, it was, you know, we're, we're, we're skating all the time. | ||
| Richie Jackson is a very, very prominent pro skater. | ||
| He's a super rad dude. | ||
| He's not a very political guy. | ||
| And, uh, I think so many pro athletes want to just say, like, dude, I don't know or care about this politics stuff. | ||
| I just, I skate or I play ball or whatever. | ||
| And there are people who want to force politics into it. | ||
| So I'm just like, We're gonna do our thing. | ||
| But we talked quite a bit about it. | ||
| And the thing about skateboarding is that... I never used to film. | ||
| I hate- I hate filming skateboarding. | ||
| I filmed some things. | ||
| If you search on YouTube for, like, me skateboarding, you might find some really old videos. | ||
| There's videos of me skating when I was 16 that are up on YouTube. | ||
| Actually, my friend Brett Novak filmed one of the oldest YouTube videos in existence. | ||
| Tim Pool skating at a Chicago warehouse. | ||
| It has like a million views, or half a million views, or something like that. | ||
| However, recently I started filming a lot. | ||
| And the reason is, I want to destroy wokeness. | ||
| And woke people have started infecting skateboarding with their woke garbage. | ||
| Oh, really? | ||
| Look, man, I said this years ago. | ||
| It came for video games. | ||
| It came for movies. | ||
| It came for comics. | ||
| It will come for Major League Sports. | ||
| It's only a matter of time before someone's like, well, the rules are arbitrary. | ||
| We can make it so women have to play with the men and the NBA has to have women. | ||
| That's inevitable if this persists. | ||
| If we win, however, we can keep playing basketball and just say, may the best person get on the team. | ||
| But skateboarding got to the point Where I'm, like, hanging out and I see a magazine. | ||
| Nobody really reads magazines anymore. | ||
| I'm like, oh, I pop it open. | ||
| And there's an advertisement for a brand. | ||
| And it's a skatebo- It's- It's- I'm not saying- Not a trans person. | ||
| A guy in a dress. | ||
| Not a trans person, okay? | ||
| I want to make sure this is clear. | ||
| There is a guy wearing a dress. | ||
| And I'm like, okay, well, you know, punk rock, whatever, be shocking, I don't really care. | ||
| I turn the page. | ||
| And there's an advertisement for a brand. | ||
| And the skateboarder is not doing a trick. | ||
| And I'm like, okay, well, you know, sometimes they have these, I guess. | ||
| Then I see... | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| The last straw was an advertisement that was a slappy. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| Okay, anybody who knows skateboarding knows a slappy. | ||
| What? | ||
| Slappy means you just rode the board up a curb and off a curb. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So it's like, imagine an ad where it's like, we have the best athletes, | ||
| and it shows LeBron James doing like speed walking. | ||
| Right. | ||
| You'd be like, huh? | ||
| Like, come on, this dude can dunk. | ||
| I wanna see a 360 dunk. | ||
| Like, now don't get me wrong, sometimes ads are just the athlete endorsing something | ||
| by doing nothing, but it really did start getting to the point | ||
| where skateboarding started embracing funding and propping up skateboarders | ||
| who do not know how to skate. | ||
| Why? | ||
| Identity. | ||
| And so I'm like, okay, it's time to put an end to this. | ||
| We are gonna fund to a very, very large sum of money skateboard media culture that pushes back against this. | ||
| Don't get me wrong, most of the big media brand stuff is still doing the good skateboarding with the good tricks, and I totally respect it, but seeing these people And it has a lot to do with them attacking companies. | ||
| So when I hear from my friend, who's a pro skater, and he's like, we're getting attacked by these woke people for not doing X, I'm like, okay, I'm gonna put money in this and I'm gonna destroy that. | ||
| That's not gonna get anywhere, no ground in skateboarding. | ||
| So, now on Instagram, I've got a bunch of skate clips that are going up. | ||
| Just yesterday, I landed what's called a Switch El Nino. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Nice. | |
| Yeah, it's a- Sounds hard. | ||
| It is, it is. | ||
| It's a very difficult trick. | ||
| It is a switch frontside 360 and a kickflip all in one. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Nice. | |
| So the board and my body spin around 360 degrees while the board flips underneath me. | ||
| I did it on a bank. | ||
| And it was a very, it was very fun. | ||
| And it's a difficult trick. | ||
| And then I also have what's called a hang 10 hardflip legflip, which is a trick that only I have probably ever done. | ||
| It is maximum difficulty. | ||
| There is, there is not- You invented it? | ||
| Probably, well, it's, it's- It's a combination move. | ||
| It combines a hang ten hard flip and a late flip. | ||
| Oh, gotcha. | ||
| So, the way I do the hang ten hard flip may be unique to me. | ||
| It's hard to claim you invented things, but this is called NBD. | ||
| Never been done. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Nice. | |
| And so, there is quite literally, in terms of degrees of difficulty, this is the highest possible degree of difficulty for a trick. | ||
| The video's on my Instagram. | ||
| Why? | ||
| We're gonna start trying to inspire people and build culture, so now I'm actually, we're actually filming. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Nice. | |
| And we're going to bring pros out. | ||
| We're going to film with them. | ||
| We already brought some AMs and filmed with them. | ||
| And we're just going to be like, dude, we're reclaiming the space and we're kicking you out. | ||
| Is Scott Horton a good skateboarder? | ||
| Yes, actually. | ||
| Yeah, that episode on Friday was incredible. | ||
| Scott is, he's an old man. | ||
| Sorry, Scott. | ||
| But he actually, this is crazy. | ||
| Okay, look. | ||
| Did he keep the suit on? | ||
| No. | ||
| He changed. | ||
| When we go to the mini ramp, I'm like, let me do my stretches. | ||
| Let me warm up. | ||
| I'm doing kick turns. | ||
| I'm doing some rock to fakies. | ||
| He just throws his board down and goes right for the six foot section. | ||
| And he's like, oh, it feels better. | ||
| And I'm like, you're 10 years older than me. | ||
| You're not warming up and you're throwing down on the six foot already. | ||
| He's good. | ||
| Yeah, he's old school skater. | ||
| But, uh, he actually has pretty good kickflips. | ||
| So, um, I don't think he skates as often. | ||
| He does a lot of work these days, but he's good. | ||
| The first time he came here, it was like midnight, and he's like, we gotta skate. | ||
| And I'm like, bro, I can't skate at midnight. | ||
| And actually, I did a kickflip pivot on the mini ramp. | ||
| So, it was a good day. | ||
| Good day skating with Scott. | ||
| You were in that show with him and Will Chamberlain. | ||
| Will Chamberlain, yeah. | ||
| Awesome. | ||
| Yeah, I listened to that on the train today. | ||
| Dude. | ||
| Scott's awesome. | ||
| Knowledge drop. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| Well, check it out. | ||
| Tenet Media on YouTube. | ||
| That's the new home for the Culture War. | ||
| It's basically our Culture War supergroup. | ||
| Benny Johnson, Dave Rubin, Taylor Hanson, Lauren Southern, me. | ||
| We're basically, like, you know, making a supergroup. | ||
| So it's really cool. | ||
| Taylor Hanson's got an awesome video where he goes to people and he asks them, do you think we should ban books in schools? | ||
| And they're like, no. | ||
| And then he goes, OK, read this. | ||
| And it's one of the, you know, one of the books they ban. | ||
| And they're like, ah, no, we should ban that. | ||
| He's like, OK, here we go. | ||
| So super cool. | ||
| Alright, we'll read a few more. | ||
| Mike Routick says, I'm very proud to say I have voted for Ken Paxton every time he was on the ballot. | ||
| I knew he was going to beat that sham impeachment trial. | ||
| Sham impeachment trial? | ||
| I plan to vote for him again and again. | ||
| Love the show. | ||
| Yeah, I've talked to people about it. | ||
| They say it's total BS. | ||
| So, glad he won. | ||
| He's doing good work. | ||
| Let's go! | ||
| Barely a Millennial says, we really do have a great capacity for success and greatness if we just apply ourselves. | ||
| Eventually the army will be mighty! | ||
| Thank you for all you do. | ||
| Thank you guys for watching. | ||
| For real. | ||
| We are, uh, we're investing probably close to a million dollars in one of the best skate facilities that will exist. | ||
| It's going to, it's going to be on the East Coast, and it's going to, uh, people are going to wish they could be there. | ||
| The Barracks is the, one of the most prominent media entities in skateboarding. | ||
| I'm a huge fan. | ||
| The guys at The Barracks are awesome people. | ||
| Glad to see them do their thing. | ||
| We are going to have our own facility on the East Coast that does things that are relatively similar, but it's not just skateboarding, it's gonna be action sports. | ||
| And, uh, look, man. | ||
| You wanna come skate in your LGBTQIA-whatever-we-do-not-care. | ||
| That is not what it's about. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Where is it? | |
| West Virginia. | ||
| Oh, West Virginia. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah. | |
| So, like an hour from D.C. | ||
| Hour and a half from D.C. | ||
| But, uh, uh, you know, it's-it's-it's private. | ||
| It's gonna be, like, 90% private. | ||
| But my point is, the one thing we don't tolerate? | ||
| Intolerance. | ||
| So the people who are like, you're not allowed to skate here because you're a big-eat bullbug, actually that's you, and I don't care if a dude shows up, you can wear whatever you want, you can skate. | ||
| So that's the other thing too. | ||
| Skate and have fun. | ||
| Yeah, like- Take the politics out of it. | ||
| So this is what's happening in the area. | ||
| This is a big thing that happened. | ||
| There were skateboarders at a spot they did not own. | ||
| They threatened to physically remove me if I showed up. | ||
| And I was like, skateboarders trespass all the time to skate. | ||
| And there's this makeshift park on someone else's property, and they actually publicly stated if I showed up, they would physically remove me. | ||
| And I was like, okay, well, I bought it. | ||
| It's mine now. | ||
| But we were trying to buy it in the first place, because we didn't think there was any beef, and it was crazy that we're in Martinsburg, like, we're buying property, we're building a skate park, we're doing these things, and then after that, they post, we will physically remove him if he shows up. | ||
| I'm like, that's gonna be awkward. | ||
| Because I own that property. | ||
| That's weird, because you're all banned! | ||
| But I'm not banning anybody. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I'm like, dude, you guys aren't allowed to kick skateboarders out. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Now look, if someone's going there and they're smashing things, they're doing drugs, they're doing illegal stuff, no, no, no, that's not a skateboarder. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| But if some skateboarder says they want to skate and you're like, no, it's ours. | ||
| Okay, dude, now you get out. | ||
| What, are they checking IDs at the park? | ||
| That, it's just crazy. | ||
| I was, I was, I thought it was hilarious when they were like, if Tim Pool shows up, we're moving him. | ||
| I'm like, oof, this is going to be weird. | ||
| Will they physically assault you? | ||
| I don't know, but I was talking to some dude from the park and I'm like, I told him, like, two weeks later, I was like, hey, just wanted to let you know, I own this. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And, like, he bought it. | ||
| And he was like, what? | ||
| You stole it? | ||
| You're buying it from under us? | ||
| I was like, bro? | ||
| He said, why didn't you tell us when this was going down that you were buying it? | ||
| And I'm like, because you were screaming in my face and threatening me with physical force! | ||
| I like that he says, buying this out from under us, as if they were going to purchase it. | ||
| Like, were you just, he outbid you? | ||
| Like, just snuck in there and bought it out from under you? | ||
| No, you were never gonna buy it, homie! | ||
| And then what they did, was they started telling everybody that I bought it so I could destroy it. | ||
| Like, these people are evil, dude. | ||
| They're like, oh no, we tried banning a skateboarder from a park, and now once we find out that he's actually the legal owner of it, now we're just gonna claim he's gonna destroy it, you have to hate him. | ||
| And I'm like, not only will I not destroy it, we will legally protect it, and we will expand it in any way you guys want. | ||
| The only constraint is, like, dude, you can't tell someone, because of something totally unrelated to skateboarding, and non-criminal, because of their worldviews or who they are, they can't skateboard. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| These people are bigots. | ||
| You should hire 20 body doubles who can also skateboard, and then all dress the same, and then show up all together. | ||
| That'd be a good video. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Because then they don't know who to kick down. | ||
| Would you like to manage this project? | ||
| I could run a casting session with you if you want. | ||
| I would not undo it, but if you... Well, you just put out a casting call, literally, Tim Pool lookalike must be able to skate, send in your headshots, and they just have to look like you, similar body, have to skate. | ||
| Just unleash them on DC. | ||
| And then you all get the exact same wardrobe, and you just all show up at the same skate park with all these people there, and they're like, is it him? | ||
| That's a really good idea. | ||
| We should do this at Freedom Plaza in DC. | ||
| We'll get like a hundred guys. | ||
