|
Now, enjoy the show. | |
What is this called, Serge? | ||
Uh, the word is druivorce, which means just dry vorce or sausage. | ||
So, good stuff. | ||
Dude, this is like, it makes Slim Jim taste like eating shit. | ||
unidentified
|
I know! | |
I just ate a Slim Jim recently for the first time in like 10 years. | ||
It's got a bunch of chemicals in it. | ||
unidentified
|
Shame. | |
I was just starving. | ||
It's like, I don't know, I call it South African Slim Jim. | ||
Because it's like fatty beef meat sticks. | ||
Serge is always coming up in here with some weird South African meat. | ||
That's how you do it. | ||
So we got this story. | ||
Canadian woman battling long COVID applies for assisted suicide. | ||
It's not a good life. | ||
I think long COVID is probably vax injury. | ||
Luke, take off your fucking stickers. | ||
Oh yeah, there you go. | ||
unidentified
|
You gotta move the microphone. | |
You can't see it. | ||
Oh yeah, there you go. | ||
Unvaxxed sperm, oh my god, I love that. | ||
Shake it. | ||
Look at that. | ||
You gotta move the microphone, you can't see it. | ||
unidentified
|
You should get a shirt that says Looking for Unvaxxed Sperm for Females. | |
Yeah, I think I gotta be more specific if I'm selling or buying personally. | ||
buying personally. | ||
No, no! | ||
Same thing, but for women. | ||
Women are spending it. | ||
unidentified
|
Right, same looking for unvaccinated. | |
No, same thing. | ||
Dudes will be like... | ||
Yo, I got it, I got it. | ||
And Luke's going, no, no, no. | ||
I have this on the back of my car and I have a female assistant and she complains about how many times she gets stopped by guys. | ||
unidentified
|
Because the guys are like, hey, hey, hey, I'll do it. | |
It literally says that on the back of your truck. | ||
She also is like a former model. | ||
So it doesn't help that. | ||
So I got an honest question for the people who are listening. | ||
I've only been 37 this one time. | ||
Is it normal when you're 37 for friends of yours who are fit and healthy and also 37 have heart attacks and die in their sleep? | ||
unidentified
|
No. | |
I mean, because a lot of people have said, hey, hey, look, man, we're getting older. | ||
Our friends are going to start dying of shit. | ||
Not 40. | ||
No, it was COVID. | ||
And the first guy that I knew from high school died of COVID or not of COVID after he was like, you fucking assholes that aren't getting vaccinated. | ||
You deserve to die. | ||
Fuck you all. | ||
Fuck you all. | ||
And then he fucking died. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
It's very sad. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Hear about that journalist who was like, we should force people to get vaccinated and | ||
then he died at 33? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Just happened. | ||
Wow. | ||
He was telling people to go to camps or get vaccinated. | ||
There was a, there was a politician. | ||
He said, to carry it in a stick, we should give incentives for people who get it. | ||
And if they don't, then we can lock them up. | ||
unidentified
|
That politician was like, Allah will strike them down, Israel. | |
And then he died of a heart attack immediately. | ||
I don't think that was vaccine related. | ||
That was maybe more like God related. | ||
He was kind of fat. | ||
Yeah, he was. | ||
So a friend of mine, Went to sleep on Thanksgiving and never woke up. | ||
He was very healthy, didn't do drugs, super physically fit. | ||
Used to skate with him when I was a kid. | ||
unidentified
|
And we were all shocked when- What did the autopsy say? | |
No one in the family is gonna publicly release- Right, that always happens. | ||
unidentified
|
But you know, I have a lot of friends dying too, but it's all fentanyl related. | |
In New York it is. | ||
Like, everybody knows somebody every month that dies of fentanyl. | ||
But the family doesn't say it. | ||
They'll say a heart attack or, you know, they had a stroke or died in their sleep mysteriously. | ||
There's also, oh, what were you saying? | ||
First person I knew who died was when I was, I think, 17. | ||
Someone I went to high school with overdosed on heroin at like 16 years old. | ||
It wasn't common. | ||
And then there's hopelessness, like people without purpose. | ||
Like that'll just, your body, I don't know if everybody, if your body will just shut down, but like people say, if you have nothing to live for. | ||
Yeah, Luke's trying to get us banned because he said you're sitting next to people who are shedding spike proteins on the airplane. | ||
I said you don't want to be sitting next to a bunch of people who shed... I said a bunch of stuff. | ||
It is really sad. | ||
And then I hear they're gonna put mRNA in fucking food. | ||
Have you guys been hearing this? | ||
unidentified
|
They probably already are. | |
What the fuck? | ||
It's like an experimental new technology that they're putting in food? | ||
So this dude I know said, back in the old neighborhood, six people, six of his friends have died in the last two years. | ||
Damn. | ||
And he's, I think he's 38 years old. | ||
And so I'm just like, I don't know, maybe... Like, look, Homer Simpson was 37, he had a heart attack. | ||
And I know he's supposed to be obese, but my point is not that Homer Simpson is a real person and we care that he had a heart attack. | ||
My point is, a show was made in the 90s about a 37-year-old man who had a heart attack, and it was considered something that was possible. | ||
Granted, he was unhealthy and obese, but it wasn't like, what? | ||
A 37-year-old having a heart attack? | ||
No, it was like... | ||
Isn't that crazy that Homer was 37? | ||
Yeah. | ||
They updated his age later to make him 42. | ||
unidentified
|
Really? | |
Yeah, but he's 37. | ||
Wow. | ||
unidentified
|
He looks older. | |
Yeah. | ||
Right? | ||
Old. | ||
Yeah, genetically, probably way older. | ||
unidentified
|
Hey, hey, hey. | |
Look, look, everybody says this. | ||
Go back in time and people looked older when they were younger. | ||
It's weird. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
Especially war veterans. | ||
Man, that does a fucking toll on the body. | ||
Well, yeah, sure, but musicians. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
You're like, how old is this guy? | ||
unidentified
|
He's 30? | |
He looks like he's 53. | ||
unidentified
|
They just drank and smoked, and it was like, without... Especially the women, too. | |
I mean, like, it's like, crazy. | ||
But so, let's go back to the story. | ||
This woman says, I can't do anything, my quality of life with this illness, it's almost non-existent. | ||
So she's asking the government to end her suffering. | ||
I'm wondering if long COVID is just vax injury. | ||
Or a combination of the vaccine and COVID at once, like you get both at the same time. | ||
unidentified
|
So long COVID is basically, because I know people say they have long COVID, that's COVID that lasts for a long time and it doesn't go away. | |
Predominantly in vaccinated people. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
So long COVID, what they say in the media is that your body can't get rid of it and it keeps coming back. | ||
unidentified
|
I mean, like, you're probably compromised for whatever the reasons are. | |
I think it's more about that. | ||
unidentified
|
I don't mean compromise. | |
But I don't believe in assisted suicide. | ||
I mean, I think it's against my religion. | ||
Assisted suicide. | ||
I don't know if this is what they're gunning for. | ||
I always feel like assisted suicide is something that eventually is going to be a real thing here in the US. | ||
Maybe in 10 years, 20 years. | ||
Well, with this case, either way, your tax dollars finance the death of this person. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
Whether it's with COVID, whether it's with the vaccine, whether it's assisted suicide. | ||
The government is a death cult, and they just want you dead. | ||
Why should this woman live? | ||
unidentified
|
To be an example of how to heal from this shit? | |
I mean, can they put her in a mental institution? | ||
I mean, I guess that's another tax dollar thing, but... | ||
I mean, like if they start giving people assisted suicide, then it's just gonna, everybody's gonna want it. | ||
Everybody's depressed. | ||
I mean, I think depression is through sky level, through the roof right now. | ||
Everyone I know is depressed and has anxiety and they're suffering and they can't sleep at night and they're up all night having anxiety attacks at the end of the world is coming. | ||
Dude, suicide crossed my mind three days ago. | ||
I didn't like plan it. | ||
I was just, it just came into my mind again. | ||
unidentified
|
I've gone through phases of it over my life where I'm like, What is the fucking point? | |
Do this again? | ||
Another one of these? | ||
unidentified
|
I'm saying one more time around, bro. | |
But fortunately I have friends to talk to about it. | ||
unidentified
|
Right, you know, it's a real thing. | |
I mean, I never thought about committing suicide, but there's times when I'm like, whoa, I'm really tired. | ||
Maybe if I just didn't wake up, like that would, you know what I mean? | ||
It's not a scary death. | ||
I think, I think it's a defense mechanism as you get older, like death doesn't become as scary. | ||
Like I always wonder how like 70 and 80 year olds that are so close to death are like completely fine with it. | ||
Like they're like, oh, when I'm not here next year, you know? | ||
And I'm like, how are you just fine with that? | ||
Like, aren't you panicking that you're going to die? | ||
It's a defense mechanism. | ||
I don't think so. | ||
I think it's because If someone was 80 years old but had the body of a 20-year-old, they wouldn't want to die. | ||
But the older you get, the harder it is to do things you once loved. | ||
You're just like, dude, I can't even get up anymore. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
Like, you know, I watch Tony Hawk. | ||
Let me pull this up. | ||
unidentified
|
It still shreds. | |
Oh, this is a sad video. | ||
Tony Hawk's last 900. | ||
Oh yeah, I remember this one. | ||
So he's 48. | ||
When is it, 2019? | ||
Yeah, that's a couple years ago. | ||
Seven years ago. | ||
Tony Hawk, everybody knows who he is. | ||
Here we go. | ||
Isn't this the last one? | ||
What is he doing at 50, though? | ||
unidentified

Is he gonna fall? | ||
I feel like he might've done one at 50. | ||
I don't know. | ||
I think this is his last one. | ||
unidentified
|
That's so amazing. | |
It looks like it's first blood too, the same swag. | ||
Listen. | ||
unidentified
|
Thank you. | |
Just wait for it. | ||
It was wild for me to watch that happen seven years ago. | ||
Tony Hawk is like skateboarding. | ||
Everybody knows his name. | ||
He's not the... Rodney Mullen is the progenitor of all modern skateboarding, the godfather of everything. | ||
Name a trick, Rodney Mullen. | ||
Tony Hawk has a handful of tricks he created, but he is iconic. | ||
To watch that video where he's like, that's my last 900, man. | ||
I'm like, damn. | ||
I've been thinking about death a lot lately. | ||
I don't know about you guys. | ||
But look. | ||
Tony Hawk said, Spencer was there for my first and he's here for my last. | ||
He slams his helmet on the ground. | ||
He just put out a video part with some of the most epic skateboarding. | ||
And he's fucking like 52! | ||
No, how old is he? | ||
unidentified
|
He's 55! | |
Or is he? | ||
Yeah, he's 55. | ||
unidentified
|
Holy shit, man. | |
Fifty-something. 55! | ||
Yeah. | ||
Or is he? Yeah, he's 55. | ||
Fifty-something, yeah. | ||
Holy shit, man. | ||
54 or some shit. | ||
But... | ||
He's toning everything down. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
He can't do the tricks he used to do when he was young. | ||
unidentified
|
He's still doing amazing stuff. | |
I mean, more than the average person. | ||
Yeah, but it's less. | ||
unidentified
|
What 55-year-old could do that? | |
He can't do 900 anymore. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
When he's 60, he'll barely be able to do basic tricks. | ||
By the time he's 65, he's gonna be like, I can't even do what I love and know. | ||
It hurts. | ||
And then he's gonna be like, I did it. | ||
I'm satisfied. | ||
There's nothing else left for me here. | ||
But if Tony Hawk had the body of a 24-year-old, he'd be like, I'm back, baby! | ||
And he'd be back on doing crazy shit. | ||
Fuck yeah. | ||
Genetic therapy out of Harvard. | ||
My God, with like the sirtuin regrowth, with all this NAD, NMN, and NR, nicotinamide ribozyme. | ||
That is fucking awesome. | ||
If you get started on that early, because solar age is different than genetic age. | ||
You can go around the sun a hundred times. | ||
If your genetics are healthy and your telomeres are extending, you're good to go. | ||
Like you'll have a young body. | ||
unidentified
|
I gotta look into that. | |
Yeah. | ||
unidentified
|
I want a young body. | |
I've been thinking about death lately and like, I'm having a hard, the last month or so, I've been having a hard time visualizing anything in the future, which is kind of weird. | ||
Cause normally I can picture my, like my life. | ||
And I'm like, I'm like, I don't want to die, but maybe I got to go do an ego death. | ||
And like, I've been thinking about ayahuasca and combo, talking to Luke about combo, which is like this toad poison that they like burn into your skin. | ||
Looked at it. | ||
Yeah. | ||
And you were saying it felt like death. | ||
It's like physical death. | ||
unidentified
|
My- How does it feel like physical, like you actually, Does it put you under? | |
It's one of the most strongest frog venoms in the world that you literally burn a hole into your skin and then put into your body. | ||
Hold on! | ||
Luke may be selling unvaxxed sperm for 7,000 a load, but it's also frog venom. | ||
No, it allows you to purge your body of impurity. | ||
So if you have any implants, you're not supposed to do it. | ||
My diagnosis is, and again, I'm not a professional, is that Ian, you shouldn't do any of this stuff. | ||
You shouldn't do the combo. | ||
You shouldn't do the ayahuasca. | ||
That's just my own personal things. | ||
But you have your own thing. | ||
Again, this should be something that you need to decide for yourself that is right for you as an individual. | ||
But it is also some of the kind of esoteric archaic kind of deep down the rabbit hole stuff that you truly need to be prepared for yourself because you're dealing with stuff that is beyond our comprehension. | ||
Yeah, that's what I feel that and I've tasted ayahuasca in the past and I've you know, I like that the psychedelic realm but like it's the death like I don't I'm going to experience some sort of death, and I want it to be an ego death and not an actual physical death. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, I don't want you to die either. | |
Not anytime soon. | ||
No, I want to do 40 or 50 more years and really lead the world in a glorious fashion and help people. | ||
unidentified
|
I feel like right after our generation dies, they're gonna find ways for people to live forever. | |
Not that I would want to live forever. | ||
I know that they're doing all that stuff, what is it called? | ||
Transhumanism stuff. | ||
And I feel like we're gonna just miss that. | ||
Our kids are gonna possibly live forever. | ||
That's that's really where you start now. | ||
You can always kill yourself. | ||
So you may as well be young up until that moment, like you can have a genetically healthy body. | ||
But that's where like, that's the transhumanist stuff out of Harvard, like David Sinclair is the scientist to look at. | ||
But then there's post humanism. | ||
Post humanism is where we become robots. | ||
unidentified
|
I don't want to be a robot. | |
It's not natural to be one, you know, I don't know. | ||
I feel like that Black Mirror, that show Black Mirror, I don't know if you watch it. | ||
I've seen a bunch. | ||
unidentified
|
I feel like it's all like putting out the stuff that's really gonna happen. | |
They're like preparing like, you know, how they're gonna take your conscience and put it in a pod and you'll be able to live in a different body. | ||
Like all that stuff seems feasible now. | ||
It really does. | ||
I don't know. | ||
It might already be, but they won't tell anyone about it. | ||
unidentified
|
Like with the metaverse type stuff? | |
Yeah, exactly. | ||
No, no, no. | ||
Digital avatar, that's how it starts. | ||
You will be looking up from hell at a robot version of you pretending to be you. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh, God. | |
Yeah, I agree. | ||
Your soul ain't going in a robot. | ||
unidentified
|
I don't want to live forever. | |
It scares the living crap out of me. | ||
I think that too. | ||
Oh, yeah, yeah. | ||
I don't want to be trapped into living forever. | ||
I want the option. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
Imagine, I would have a panic attack forever. | ||
So I'm more afraid of living forever, I think, than dying. | ||
There's a book, Tuck Everlasting. | ||
Did you guys ever read that? | ||
unidentified
|
I love that book. | |
Where he couldn't die? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
I never read it. | ||
My friend used to tell me about it. | ||
unidentified
|
You should read it. | |
It's a fast read. | ||
I read it in fifth grade really quickly. | ||
It was like a curse, apparently. | ||
Like Tuck couldn't kill him, so he couldn't die. | ||
I don't ever want that. | ||
I don't want to be stuck as a robot. | ||
Fuck that shit. | ||
But man, to be healthy for a hundred years would be really awesome. | ||
unidentified
|
To get an extra additional hundred years would be cool. | |
Like in the Bible, like live to 180 or 220 years old. | ||
That would be cool. | ||
Yeah, if you were like healthy and young. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
But Ian, what if it turns out this is one big simulation and you're the only conscious entity in it, and when you get to your deathbed, it just flashes and then you're back as a kid again, fully aware of everything. | ||
I used to think that, but then I met you. | ||
Your ego's too strong. | ||
It's real. | ||
I can tell. | ||
You're like me. | ||
I think Trump's the main character. | ||
I don't think I am. | ||
You are, though. | ||
We're all the main character. | ||
Elon Musk could be the main character. | ||
I think it's Trump. | ||
unidentified
|
Could be. | |
We're just side characters in Trump's story. | ||
unidentified
|
For real. | |
I mean, he's a good character. | ||
I know. | ||
I mean, Trump has too much magic going on. | ||
So I had this idea for a show where it's about side characters, but you don't realize it until later on where, like, you'll notice in the background crazy things are happening that aren't relevant to the story of the main characters, but eventually it's like, you know, a zombie apocalypse happens, a plague is unleashed, and the characters are trying to survive. | ||
In the background, you periodically notice some people doing things, and then eventually, when you piece together all those background stories, it's them finding the source of the virus, finding the cure, unleashing the cure, and the story you're following is totally irrelevant to the grandiose vision of humanity or anything like that. | ||
I thought about this because I'm like, every movie is always about the heroes. | ||
It's always about the people. | ||
And it's never a... I mean, not absolutely. | ||
Like, Shaun of the Dead was about the people and the military comes in to stop the monsters. | ||
But like, in all of these movies where there's some kind of monster or some kind of crisis, we're always following the hero. | ||
And I'm like, what about that dude who went for a jog and then Bruce Willis drove past at 100 miles an hour? | ||
He has no idea what the fuck Die Hard's doing. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
You know, and he's just gotta go get his dog from the vet. | ||
You know what I mean? | ||
It'd be fun to make a movie like that. | ||
That's the way I think we are. | ||
We're just, like, weird little side characters. | ||
Everybody listening, you're also weird little side characters, too. | ||
unidentified
|
Well, it's the weird side characters of Donald Trump. | |
That's true. | ||
You're the main character. | ||
Like, I think Donald's like the NPC, that level 80 NPC that you go to visit at the castle, and then he tells you something. | ||
But for him, he's the main character, and you're the NPC that comes up and talks to him, that he, like, tells stuff to. | ||
It'd be funny if Donald Trump was like, this is just one big video game that I'm playing and you're all little NPCs. | ||
unidentified
|
I took the ayahuasca and now I will. | |
When you play a video game, you know you're playing a video game. | ||
There's no question about it. | ||
So none of us know that we're playing a video game. | ||
We all think we are who we are, which means we're NPCs. | ||
And that means, you know, it's going to be like, maybe maybe it's not Donald Trump. | ||
Maybe it's just some like random dude named like Bill Fisher, who's like 30 years old and lives in Iowa. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
And he's like, actually from his basement. | ||
Maybe he's on his couch playing Earth. | ||
He's playing he's playing like, you know, Earth Sim. | ||
And he's controlling this guy walking around and Trump's president. | ||
Maybe he's just gardening. | ||
Maybe it's garden simulator. | ||
unidentified
|
Well, if he's watching now, I hope he would give me, you know, some more coins and... Oh, that's a really good idea for a video game! | |
Using... Once we get to the point of, like, more advanced computers, make a video game where it's, like, farming simulator or, like, gardening simulator, and your character just gardens, but there's a whole universe of crazy-ass shit happening outside. | ||
So it's like real elections are being simulated... And you're just the NPC living in it. | ||
And all you do is garden. | ||
All you do is, like, grow little flowers and then go to work. | ||
That'd be cool. | ||
But you can, like, watch and see what's happening in other parts of the game. | ||
I love pers— No access to it. | ||
Like, persistent realities. | ||
If we take callers, could we only take callers from potential customers of mine? | ||
You'll get a lot of dudes, dude, that want to sell you that. | ||
All right, no, no. | ||
All the callers. | ||
Can we get only the people who want to buy my service? | ||
The unvaxxed sperm or what? | ||
unidentified
|
The $7,000. | |
Well, let's go to collars then. | ||
If you had $7,000... Only men tonight! | ||
No! | ||
unidentified
|
Whoa! | |
I was gonna say, man, I don't know. | ||
I don't know if... Sir, I've been asking you. | ||
I'm like, hey man, let's get the women in here. | ||
I can't comply to that legally, bro. | ||
unidentified
|
So, uh, Brian, if you want to buy any sperm from Luke, man... Fucking hell. | |
Brian, no. | ||
unidentified
|
Sales off. | |
Sales off. | ||
Brian, you with us? | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, sorry, not a buyer, Luke. | |
I wasn't gonna sell it. | ||
What's happening, man? | ||
Hey man, how you doing? | ||
I have a very exclusive clientele, okay? | ||
Fair enough, I'll leave you to it. | ||
unidentified
|
Thank you for having me. | |
Of course, man. | ||
This question's for really anybody who wants to take a tackle at it. | ||
In general, conservatives are pretty reactive and not even anywhere near proactive. | ||
How do we get conservatives to stop playing checkers and start playing 3D chess like the liberals and the democrats are? | ||
I think you're the player character. | ||
You're the number one. | ||
It is your game. | ||
This reality is you. | ||
You are creating this as you go. | ||
There's shit happening all around you, but you are the main focus. | ||
You are like it. | ||
If you inspire people and remind them, you are the momentum. | ||
The advantage that the right has over the left... So the left's advantage is... | ||
They're retarded, so they march in lockstep behind whoever tells them what to do. | ||
The problem the right has is individuality, and so people do not act in cohesion. | ||
But the advantage they have is hierarchy. | ||
Meaning, if you're on the right and you build a business, people will trust and follow you and work for you, and you can use that to your advantage like Elon Musk does. | ||
The left uses coercive collective power like government on social media. | ||
Elon Musk used raw hierarchical power to buy Twitter and turn it into X. | ||
So, we can argue all day and night about the proper strategy for Bud Light, but none of that really matters. | ||
Timcast is being supported by everybody who watches the show and believes in us, and all those little increments of membership allow us to launch Cast Brew Coffee, team up with the Daily Wire on making a song, launch the Boonies HQ, and have a tremendous impact on culture. | ||
So, It's like, the left wants to play this decentralized follow-the-leader weird cult amalgam game, and the right plays the prove-it-and-I'll-listen-to-you kind of game, which I think ultimately will win out in the end. | ||
Because you've got the likes of Elon Musk, you've got Joe Rogan, you've got Donald Trump. | ||
Strong leaders prove something they can do works, people get behind them, and they succeed. | ||
That's the power of meritocracy. | ||
It also requires a willingness to be wrong, because you need to make bold claims. | ||
And take bold risks, and you may fail. | ||
It's a big part of looking like an idiot in public. | ||
But when you can get over that, and you just go anyway, and it's like, you'll fail, fail, fail, succeed. | ||
That really gets people behind you, and really inspires people to start doing the same thing, and creating, and becoming the momentous force of like Elon Musk. | ||
Like that guy's probably failed so many times. | ||
Oh yeah. | ||
I mean, the first iteration of X.com that he was trying to make was PayPal. | ||
And now he's got X finally, in his mid-50s, his dream. | ||
He wants to make this, you know, end-all, be-all app. | ||
Congratulations, buddy. | ||
unidentified
|
It's true, though. | |
I do feel like Democrats are, like, thinking 20 steps ahead, like, diabolical plans, like, down the line. | ||
Like, okay, they're not thinking about 2024 election. | ||
They're thinking about 28, 30, like, 32. | ||
No, no. | ||
unidentified
|
I do feel that way. | |
I don't think so. | ||
I think it's more like they don't care if you're right or wrong. | ||
They just care that you're part of the mob. | ||
So, someone comes out and says something, and they're like, whatever. | ||
Whereas on the right, we argue all the time. | ||
unidentified
|
Right, it's like red-on-red violence. | |
However, on the left, you have problems of hierarchy, where people are always screaming at their bosses, refusing to work, and weird shit like that. | ||
And then on the right, you have people want a job, and they'll work, and they'll respect hierarchy. | ||
Yeah, and people on the right are, like, willing to work together and get past, like, little differences, but people on the left, like, if you're slightly different, like, hit the road, man. | ||
That's the one thing I've noticed, at least. | ||
That's unfortunate. | ||
It wasn't always like that. | ||
We used to love to argue liberally about politics. | ||
unidentified
|
Well, there are some good classical liberals out there, I feel like, that really don't... The current Democrat Party has completely lost its mind. | |
Yeah, I think it's Chinese influence. | ||
Classical liberal means early Americans, founding fathers, so it's a reference to right-leaning libertarians. | ||
unidentified
|
That's what the I always consider myself a classical liberal now all of a sudden I'm labeled to like a far-right extremist and it's said in a derogatory way when I'm described on certain things like far-right extremist Cara Castronova just because like I was I'm for like medical freedom not persecuting American citizens stuff like that makes me a far-right extremist. | |
I don't know how I get classified, but I was always very liberal, like classically. | ||
Me too. | ||
I'm not like communistically liberal, like that's technically a liberal concept. | ||
It's illiberal. | ||
Communism is illiberal. | ||
unidentified
|
And if you really look at the quote-unquote far-right wing of the Congress, like the Freedom Caucus, like they're really like kind of classical liberals for the most part is what they are. | |
They believe in liberalism. | ||
How you mentioned that they think it's like 20, 30 years ahead, that's the communist long game. | ||
They play the long game, like the opium wars of the late 1800s. | ||
That's what they're doing now in Mexico. | ||
unidentified
|
I'm always like, how did they think? | |
I always realize it's always like when you're reading a book and you're like, how did the author think about that? | ||
They knew the ending the whole time. | ||
That was 500 pages. | ||
That's how I feel personally with Democrats. | ||
I'm like, damn! | ||
They were thinking about that years ago, and now they just played the card. | ||
It is valuable to get out of your own head and kind of have a plan, like a long-term plan. | ||
But you gotta forget about the plan in the meantime and just live it, but also know where you're headed. | ||
unidentified
|
That's a kind of esoteric tactic. | |
Yeah. | ||
It's not, it's easier said than done, I think. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Cause also it is about the group. | ||
You can't do everything by yourself. | ||
Even if you run a business, like you don't have much control. | ||
Like Tim, Tim runs this shit, but like he's one guy, you know, if, if, if he tries to centralize everything, nothing gets done. | ||
You got to like trust the group, but also trust the order and the hierarchy. | ||
It's a bit of a challenge and people need to be good people. | ||
Cause if one person goes haywire can fuck the whole organization up. | ||
unidentified
|
All right. | |
Alright, everybody's gotta watch this clip. | ||
unidentified
|
Woohoo! | |
That's so hard. | ||
It's not that part, it's this part. | ||
unidentified

**sigh** **laugh** | |
**sigh** **laugh** | ||
Tony Hawk lands. | ||
friends. | ||
At age of 52. | ||
unidentified
|
The last ever Ollie 540. | |
And he starts crying. | ||
And he cries. | ||
We're going to win when Tony Hawk gets some crazy genetic therapy and does like a 720. | ||
I'm just saying, man. | ||
It's crazy. | ||
I love that line, uh, one day you picked up your child for the last time and didn't know it. | ||
Yeah. | ||
I read a story on Reddit and then some guy responded with, I just walked up to my 20 year old son and lifted him straight up and put him down and he said, dad, what the fuck are you doing? | ||
I called my dad like three days ago and he was at the gym. | ||
And I was like, he was like, yeah, just call me later. | ||
And then I didn't. | ||
And I was like, what am I doing? | ||
unidentified
|
Is this going to be one of those things where I'm like, why didn't I call him yesterday? | |
Brian, thanks for calling in. | ||
Was there anything else you wanted to add before we wrap? | ||
unidentified
|
No, those are some really solid answers. | |
Right on. | ||
Thanks for calling in. | ||
Thanks, man. | ||
Cheers. | ||
Alrighty. | ||
See you later. | ||
Oh, it's the Thai guy. | ||
Mr. Windsor. | ||
How are you this evening? | ||
Hey, you guys good? | ||
unidentified
|
I'm doing pretty good. | |
How are you guys doing? | ||
Doing well, thank you very much. | ||
unidentified
|
Well, Superman does good. | |
Very good. | ||
So this is actually to Tim. | ||
This is pertaining to Bud Light and the, you know, some of the comments that you've been kind of, at least in the direction that you've been kind of like going with it. | ||
I'm opposed to how you've been thinking on this, and I was hoping to see what you would think on this question. | ||
So, my question is, why wouldn't you want to create history with the downfall of a major company that has completely gone off the rails? | ||
Good luck going to war with Joe Rogan. | ||
unidentified
|
Good luck. | |
Yeah, I hear you. | ||
I hear you on that, and you keep saying, like, good luck and everything. | ||
The issue is, I mean, when you set a precedent, when you actually put this, like, right now we have an opportunity to teach, you know, this company, but, like, a permanent lesson, a lesson that, you know, that you probably won't be able to teach for, like, a long time, or the opportunities you get like this with a major company don't come every often. | ||
I mean, not only that, it doesn't teach other companies. | ||
Do we just say, nothing? | ||
Then come April, their sales recovery, the numbers will come in. | ||
Joe Rogan will do more podcasts, drinking 30 plus cans of Bud Light, saying, screw those guys, they're weirdos, Bud Light's great, UFC will do the same thing. | ||
No one's gonna boycott UFC. | ||
No one's gonna boycott a Kid Rock concert. | ||
Ain't no way Joe Rogan's gonna lose influence for drinking Bud Light. | ||
So the option is narrative control or surrender. | ||
Unless you've got a plan. | ||
But the only thing I keep hearing from people, like even Matt Walsh, it's like, no, no! | ||
We are boycotting. | ||
It's like, okay, that's fantastic. | ||
What are you gonna- good luck going to war with Joe Rogan. | ||
Like, the biggest asset in the culture war for a lot of what's going on is Joe Rogan. | ||
The fact that he has such a massive podcast, has called at the machine, the fact that Joe Rogan said he would vote for Trump over Biden, these are all tremendously massive things and we all know it, because normies listen to Joe Rogan, and Joe Rogan says Bud Light's good. | ||
What's your strategy for countering Joe Rogan? | ||
unidentified
|
I got one of the other companies. | |
What's that? | ||
All the other beer companies that can say the same thing. | ||
say the same thing, they can actually, this is a actual, like, this is in a realm where there are other companies | ||
that are competing for this. | ||
And if you were to build up American made companies and all that stuff that do have those values that can, | ||
like you tell Joe Rogan, you tell others, hey, just pick up these guys. | ||
Tell Bud Light, sorry, you failed, it's okay. | ||
Um, those, those people that, that, uh, are get, you know, laid off and everything, they hopefully get picked up by these other companies. | ||
Then those companies can actually, one can become a Bud Light. | ||
One can actually do something like that. | ||
And they can stay the course of understanding. | ||
Maybe in 50 years, like I'm a big fan of Ultra, right? | ||
We don't buy Bud Light. | ||
We'll buy Ultra, Ultra, right? | ||
We'll buy, we'll build parallel economy. | ||
My point is simply right now. | ||
There is no circumstance where in the next six months Bud Light goes out of business. | ||
There is a strong potentiality that the marketing people at A, B, and Bev will say. | ||
Is any of our marketing working on conservatives? | ||
No. | ||
What are we seeing? | ||
Well, Matt Walsh doubled down. | ||
We spent $105 million per year on UFC on this three-year deal, and they told us to go fuck ourselves. | ||
Well, okay, stop spending money on it, I guess. | ||
What's the fucking point? | ||
UFC loses the sponsorship as soon as the contract expires, and then they'll go full Lil Nas X. This is a guy who gets the number one song in the history of Billboard at 19 weeks. | ||
And then the first thing he does is he sucks Satan's dick. | ||
I'm not kidding. | ||
He gives the devil a blowjob. | ||
And all conservatives are freaking out. | ||
Now you got to ask yourself, why is it that a guy who has the number one song, the biggest song ever, would feel comfortable blowing Satan knowing it would piss off conservatives? | ||
Because conservatives can't do anything about it. | ||
They don't buy enough music. | ||
They don't wield enough cultural influence. | ||
So the marketing people probably went to him and said, listen, They're not going to buy your music anyway. | ||
Piss them off and you will get massive press attention. | ||
Bud Light is going to encounter a scenario where they said, we spent $300 million desperately trying to win back this 30% and nothing works. | ||
Consider that 30% dead. | ||
It is a dead limb amputate. | ||
What can we do with Bud Light now? | ||
And they'll say, the left will let us in, and we might only see 1% returns, but at least we'll get some return. | ||
I guarantee you GLAAD and the HRC are already talking to Bud Light saying, Matt Walsh has said they'll never end the boycott, you've lost, you will never get conservatives back. | ||
You go the pride route, and we will make sure we tell all of our people to buy your product. | ||
And you know what's going to happen? | ||
All the Democrats who want to prove Republicans can't win a culture war will buy your beer. | ||
And Bud Light's going to be like, well, fuck it. | ||
We already lost these people, they're never coming back. | ||
Fuck it. | ||
How much do you want? | ||
A hundred million? | ||
Here you go, gay industry. | ||
A hundred million dollars. | ||
And it's funny because conservatives, like, I guess because it's the first time they ever, you know, lockjawed onto something's arm, they don't want to let it go. | ||
But at a certain point, you have to recognize, how do you claim victory in a scenario like this? | ||
Bud Light needs to issue a public statement. | ||
This is why I tweeted out, Bud Light's new slogan is, trans people should not be welcomed in society, because that's what Sean Strickland said. | ||
And I can't even get conservatives, who are wanting to be on the boycott, to entertain that message. | ||
If y'all aren't even willing to hold up a Bud Light can and post a video saying, I agree with UFC, trans people shouldn't be welcome in polite society or whatever it is that Sean Strickland said. | ||
That's a horrible thing to say though. | ||
That's the point. | ||
Bud Light will be put in a decision dilemma. | ||
Do we double down on the money we've spent on UFC or do we issue a statement rejecting these people who are actually holding up our beers? | ||
Force them into addressing the issue once again, and that's the next move you make to destroy the company. | ||
Right now, all that's happening is conservatives are like, we're gonna keep doing nothing, and that's how we win. | ||
It's like, okay, well, you're not gonna win that way, because the left is making moves and you're sitting there. | ||
I picture it like, if Joe's like in the culture war, like Joe's the character in the movie. | ||
This is the point in the movie where one of the biggest, your biggest heroes, your greatest heroes gets mind controlled. | ||
Kind of like when Indiana Jones was forced to drink the blood in Temple of Doom and he becomes like evil for a moment. | ||
But you don't want to kill the guy. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
You want him back. | ||
You want him back. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
And so you've got to like wait. | ||
Rogan's going to be Joe. | ||
Motherfucker. | ||
He's going to be like... | ||
Mind control for a while, doing the Bud Light. | ||
And then, I mean, I don't know. | ||
unidentified
|
Honestly, to be honest, I don't really give a fuck that much about this shit. | |
Well, you're like Joe Rogan. | ||
That's kind of his attitude. | ||
He bought a bunch. | ||
I'm not buying the shit. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
Like he was trying to make a point, I think, that he doesn't give a fuck, which means maybe he really does. | ||
I'm open to the idea of destroying that company into paste, AB InBev. | ||
I'm open to the concept of doing that and taking society in that path, but I don't know if it's necessary or if it's even valuable. | ||
You can do anything. | ||
Humanity can crush a corporation if they want to. | ||
Sure, and you're not humanity, you're a single dude. | ||
Yes, and I'm speaking for humanity right now. | ||
A lot of people are listening. | ||
You're not speaking for Joe Rogan? | ||
No, I'm speaking for myself, but a lot of people are listening and people change their minds. | ||
Giant sociological change. | ||
And other things outside of our realm are affecting this too. | ||
Like comets and shit. | ||
The long march of the institutions took a hundred years, and this is the problem. | ||
We're gonna destroy Bud Light! | ||
unidentified
|
Woohoo! | |
No, I'm not saying we're gonna do it, because obviously it's a massive undertaking. | ||
It's not gonna happen. | ||
To try and, to try and, well what, the Bush family wants to buy from her, they want to buy Anheuser-Busch back. | ||
Yeah, okay, so you want to use your example where you said you don't want to, like, destroy your friend. | ||
You want your friend to be on your side again, right? | ||
So that's what I'm saying with Bud Light. | ||
Bud Light didn't used to be our enemy. | ||
Then it became our enemy. | ||
Now I'm saying, okay, well now it's us. | ||
Treat it like the battlefield, not like the enemy itself. | ||
Take the ground. | ||
Take it back. | ||
Use it for our own good. | ||
I know it made everyone mad, and we're like, that's fine. | ||
Force them to back us up. | ||
That's what Sean Strickland is doing. | ||
He's forcing them to back up their word. | ||
Like Tim's saying, either they double down, or they fuck off. | ||
It's one or the other thing. | ||
unidentified
|
Who owns that company? | |
I don't know if this is a good analogy, but I look at the Twitter and how, like, okay, the only way that it was able to redeem itself was, like, getting bought out by... That's what I'm saying. | ||
It's exactly what Twitter reminds me of. | ||
You can't buy AB InBev. | ||
No. | ||
Anheuser-Busch. | ||
unidentified
|
Elon Musk can't just buy it. | |
Someone could buy Anheuser-Busch. | ||
It's owned by a Belgian company called AB InBev. | ||
Yeah, but their market cap is like $60 billion. | ||
Yeah. | ||
And the Bush family, someone told me they want it back. | ||
It's an American family. | ||
They want to buy Bud Light back. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Just Bud Light or is it Anheuser-Busch itself? | ||
I'm pretty sure it was just Bud Light. | ||
Okay. | ||
They said if you can't save it, we can give it back to us. | ||
Interesting. | ||
unidentified
|
So what were you going to say? | |
No, I didn't know you could just buy Bud Light. | ||
I thought it was part of a... I thought it was part of Anheuser-Busch. | ||
Only one thing matters. | ||
I literally don't give two shits what anybody does with or without Bud Light. | ||
By all means, never buy the beer again. | ||
I certainly won't. | ||
I don't drink as it is. | ||
We're stocking ultra-right conservative dads because Seth is based, he's great, and we want to support the parallel economy. | ||
Do whatever you want, and you can, by all means, tell me I'm wrong. | ||
But I'm gonna tell you right now, you ain't beating Joe Rogan. | ||
That's just it. | ||
unidentified
|
Maybe he's that guy we were talking about before, like Donald Trump is the master of the universe. | |
Maybe it's Joe Rogan. | ||
No, look, the point is- He's definitely the main character of his world. | ||
Right now, here's all that matters as far as I can see. | ||
I can control what I can control, so I'm going to worry about moves I can make that have a direct impact and will succeed. | ||
That's what I'll do. | ||
Bud Light is not one of those things. | ||
I don't run a beer company, I don't sell beer, and I don't even buy beer. | ||
I will say, here's what's coming in April, the year-to-year wraparound where their sales go from minus 30 to plus 2%. | ||
Their stock has already recovered and by then it'll be even higher. | ||
Joe Rogan, Kid Rock, Dana White are all promoting the beer. | ||
The best possible thing to do now would be to say, We boycotted. | ||
We won. | ||
Bud Light caved. | ||
unidentified
|
Woo! | |
I'm with you, Joe Rogan. | ||
Ha ha! | ||
You better not cross us. | ||
See what happens. | ||
I don't think capitulating the enemy's the way. | ||
Who's that capitulating? | ||
If you say, I'm with you, Joe Rogan. | ||
Yay, Bud Light. | ||
That's not the way. | ||
We beat him, though. | ||
Well, you gotta... It's not over. | ||
The boycott's ongoing. | ||
It's not over. | ||
No, no. | ||
But we got it. | ||
We won the battle. | ||
We got that back. | ||
We have Bud Light on our side again. | ||
That's the way I see it. | ||
I don't think so. | ||
unidentified
|
Until next year. | |
It's the same company. | ||
We've conquered the battlefield. | ||
The enemy is now negotiating and saying, we will turn over our arms. | ||
We will not fight you anymore. | ||
And you've got Joe Rogan being like, let's go, boys! | ||
Kid Rock saying, ladies and gentlemen, we have subjugated the enemy. | ||
They got what they deserve. | ||
And then all the other people in the battlefield are going, no, fuck them, let's keep fighting. | ||
Let's just try to fight them again. | ||
And they're saying, guys, We can't crush this army. | ||
They're offering a negotiated surrender. | ||
Take it. | ||
unidentified
|
Well, how much money did they give Dana White for that deal? | |
106 million per year for three years. | ||
unidentified
|
All right, so it's like they gave him all this money and they're like, this is a hyper-masculine company. | |
It's like completely against, Dana White has spoken out against female athletes fighting male athletes. | ||
So it's like, they're basically like, it's almost like they paid for their reputation back. | ||
They paid this guy who's hyper-masculine and represents like alpha masculinity And Sean Strickland said, trans people are mentally ill and society should never accept them. | ||
And he said, Bud Light paid me to say that. | ||
that are men and Sean Strickland said trans people are mentally ill and society should | ||
never accept them. | ||
And that sponsored and he said Bud Light paid me to say that. | ||
I kind of see that is the version of Dylan Mulvaney. | ||
It is the opposite reaction of Dylan Mulvaney and they paid for it and he expressed that | ||
and we can double down on that message. | ||
We can go to all the woke activists and say, you lose. | ||
We can go to woke institutions. | ||
We can go to family and friends and say, what happens when you sponsor Dylan Mulvaney? | ||
You lose billions. | ||
What happens when you sponsor a guy who says trans people are mentally ill and shouldn't be accepted? | ||
You make money. | ||
And they're all gonna go, fuck, he's right. | ||
But the conservatives are unwilling to accept it. | ||
unidentified
|
Is Dylan Mulvaney like still getting endorsed? | |
I haven't seen much on him, thank the Lord. | ||
And it wasn't even that much money. | ||
I think it was like a hundred grand. | ||
It wasn't that. | ||
unidentified
|
180. | |
But a lot for him at the time. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
As someone who really was doing nothing, all of a sudden superstar. | ||
All right, we're going to go to the next caller. | ||
I want to say it's like trench, like cultural trench warfare. | ||
The trenches go back, they pass hands back and forth, like you'll take a trench. | ||
Can we stop using analogies please? | ||
I hate all these fucking analogies. | ||
If you're fighting a war, you win one battle and then the enemy raises a white flag, don't fucking fall for it. | ||
That's what I'm saying. | ||
unidentified
|
Same thing, just real quick. | |
No, I agree in a way, actually. | ||
I'm not gonna lie, I've heard these points before, but it was spread apart. | ||
But thinking on it, as long as it's kept with the idea, and as long as you can get Most of these other prominent people don't understand these points. | ||
They're pushing back, but they have their people that are listening to them. | ||
I know you say y'all don't give a fuck about Bud Light. | ||
I'm like, if that's the plan, then you should give a fuck, because this is a pretty big moment in history. | ||
When it started, it was a pretty big moment. | ||
At this point, it's still a pretty big moment. | ||
If it changes, it can... | ||
No one who has defended maintaining the current status quo on the conflict has given any strategy as to the next move to be made. | ||
End of story. | ||
I think maintaining it is the next step. | ||
I'm standing on a battlefield, nobody's doing anything, and I'm like, what should we do next? | ||
Marching. | ||
We either will put our flag down on this battlefield to claim victory, or we need to press the enemy, and everyone goes, stand here! | ||
I say, okay, I'm leaving. | ||
No, continuing the boycott is a continuous march. | ||
You're marching through the institutions right now by maintaining the boycott. | ||
So what's next, though? | ||
You continue the march. | ||
Except you need to recognize that half your boycott split off already. | ||
Half your march is going the other direction. | ||
That's okay. | ||
unidentified
|
Continue the march. | |
You actually gotta be convinced, though. | ||
Kid Rock, Dana White, and Joe Rogan just split off and took all their fans with them. | ||
I don't give a fuck, man. | ||
If you want to boycott that thing, boycott it. | ||
Okay, great. | ||
March into enemy territory with a quarter of your forces. | ||
If your goal is to lose and you don't want that goal, then don't go there. | ||
Y'all are gonna have egg on your face come April when UFC and Joe Rogan sell shitloads of Bud Light and you're like, how did we lose? | ||
But I'm not- it's not a win or lose. | ||
I don't care. | ||
But do you want- if you want to boycott it, boycott it. | ||
It's not like, oh, my life is- Yeah, you can personally boycott it. | ||
unidentified
|
Like, you know, you don't have to- Yeah, congratulations. | |
What are the spoils of this victory? | ||
unidentified
|
Well, it's not like a good beer. | |
It's like, not like you're losing much not drinking it. | ||
I'm not gonna drink it. | ||
unidentified
|
So I don't care not to, if it was like, let me like boycott steak because you know, Dylan Mulvaney's face, like I wouldn't, that would be harder than boycotting beer. | |
Anyways. | ||
Especially cause it's a big multinational, it's a Belgian company that's like poisoning our youth through Dylan Mulvaney's selling to his 15 year old fans trying to do that. | ||
That's disgusting to me. | ||
Yep. | ||
And in the equal and opposite of Dylan Mulvaney, Sean Strickland said, trans people are mentally ill and society should never accept them. | ||
That's also disgusting to me. | ||
And it's the opposite reaction. | ||
And conservatives said, no, we want more than that. | ||
unidentified
|
Are you not satisfied with- It's fucking- Say that you're not welcome in society. | |
It's disgusting. | ||
It's almost counterproductive. | ||
Congratulations on your boycott, Ian. | ||
That's what you've won. | ||
It's counterproductive. | ||
If you're for the boycott, that's so far where you're at in terms of your gains. | ||
My gains are the 28% loss in sales of Anheuser-Busch. | ||
And Anheuser-Busch gave $105 million per year to UFC and Sean Strickland said, brought to you by Bud Light, trans people are mentally ill and society should never accept them. | ||
Well, I don't agree with that statement. | ||
Then maybe you'd agree more with Bud Light, with Joe Rogan and Kid Rock, where they said, we gave them a black eye. | ||
They learned their lesson. | ||
I think we can move on to other things. | ||
No, I think you maintain a boycott. | ||
You don't have to talk shit about people. | ||
Just stop buying the beer. | ||
I think we can move on to other things. | ||
Jeff, I hope that's everything. | ||
How's it going? | ||
unidentified
|
See you guys. | |
Thank you. | ||
Cheers, my friend. | ||
I really appreciate it. | ||
All right, J-Turbo. | ||
What's good? | ||
unidentified
|
Hey, how's everybody doing tonight? | |
I'm really good, and I'm really liking talking about Bud Light. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
I'll help you out with that one. | ||
unidentified
|
Don't worry. | |
I'll bet a thousand dollars that come May I'm completely correct. | ||
I actually just like the metaphors, the cultural war metaphors that we do, but I'm sorry JTurbo | ||
shoot me in the head. | ||
You like it Luke. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. | |
I'll help you out with that one. | ||
Don't worry. | ||
unidentified
|
I'm on your side Luke. | |
Well, let's get back to my question. | ||
I had a question for Tim and for everybody, really. | ||
It pertains to journalism, but it's in general. | ||
Obviously, we had that trailer come out yesterday for that movie, quite literally called Civil War. | ||
Very original title. | ||
So, obviously, Tim, you have a history in being in hot conflicts. | ||
Like, what did you think of how it was portrayed? | ||
And, like, my follow-up to it is basically, if our country does go in that direction, because seeing the way they're treating journalists right now, and seeing the way the journalists were treated in the movie, it seems like they want it to move in that direction. | ||
What would you... Journalists are always treated like shit no matter where you are. | ||
The idea that journalists get special treatment only exists in the United States. | ||
Yeah. | ||
unidentified
|
So what would you try to do to safeguard your journalistic teams at Scanner and so forth? | |
The number one strategy in a conflict is not to wear press gear, armor, or helmets, hide your cameras, and act like you're a random person walking down the street. | ||
So, the first thing I would say is, I don't think any scanner reporter has the training requisites, uh, uh, prerequisites for entering any kind of conflict situation. | ||
And so I protect them by saying, none of the reporters who work for me are allowed to go into- into conflict or combat. | ||
Except, perhaps, Allad Eliyahu. | ||
But I'd still probably ask him to complete hostile environment training. | ||
Uh, even though he probably doesn't need it. | ||
You just- you- you do it because it's like, well, you do- it's fun. | ||
It's fun to do anyway. | ||
But, uh, The worst possible thing in the world for everybody, including those involved in the conflict and the bystanders. | ||
Bystanders are journalists who have no experience, who are placed in the conflict. | ||
They're getting up into the heat of the moment. | ||
They're causing problems, putting people at risk. | ||
unidentified
|
So, uh, not allowed. | |
Yeah, and I wanted to see, uh, anybody else have anything to add because I know, um, uh, Obviously, Luke, you're a journalist and so is Kara, so... What was the question? | ||
It was, like, about if you think a civil war... Oh, if, yeah, if a civil war actually happened in the United States, like, how would you try to safeguard yourself as a press or journalist? | ||
I find it, I find it, I don't know if anyone disagrees with me, but I've, I've, I, you know, ever since the beginning of the lockdowns, everyone like talks behind the scenes about, could there be a civil war? | ||
And it still does. | ||
But I just, I mean, families are too split. | ||
I think that they so artfully split families up. | ||
Like my brother is different than me. | ||
My aunt is different than me and their political allegiances that it would be almost like who's going to shoot their own brother? | ||
You know, or their own best friend who is completely liberal, like I have a very liberal best friend, so I feel like they know that. | ||
Happening now in Ukraine? | ||
unidentified
|
I know it's in Ukraine, but here in the U.S., I think, I don't know, I just, I don't, I don't see it happening. | |
Although... There's a lot less racial divisions in Ukraine. | ||
unidentified
|
There's a lot of racial divisions here, but I think that family, it's really just about like how families are so divided. | |
So in the end, who's gonna really take up arms against their own siblings or against their childhood best friends or their neighbor, literally their neighbor. | ||
Like I live in New York where it's like very mixed politically. | ||
So I don't know. | ||
I don't know. | ||
I can't see that happening. | ||
I think it would be more likely that people versus the government, I think, but I'm not. | ||
I try not to think about civil wars because it's very scary. | ||
I don't like talking about what I don't want to see. | ||
I want to talk about what I want to see. | ||
unidentified
|
I mean, I would like to see people united. | |
Fuck you. | ||
unidentified
|
It's like, I don't know if that's going to happen. | |
We'll spend time with your family this Christmas. | ||
unidentified
|
The mainstream media is the, you know, people that divide and distract, so. | |
And people getting lost in the machine? | ||
That's a distraction. | ||
unidentified
|
If there was no mainstream media, I think that people would be less divided and there'd be less chances of there being a civil war and there'd be more chances of people uniting against the government. | |
There would be, you know, there would be just less division. | ||
It's very sad. | ||
If there's no civil war, there will be an authoritarian regime and gulags. | ||
I just think this... We're either going to have a Bolshevik revolution or we're going to have a second American civil war. | ||
unidentified
|
If there's a civil war though, where's the dividing lines? | |
Like, it's not going to be by region. | ||
It's like, okay, California and New York are very liberal. | ||
Are they going to somehow join forces and fight? | ||
Just like in Spain, yes. | ||
unidentified
|
No, that's why- And then there's Chicago, and they have like, you know? | |
So, like, every civil war in history, yes. | ||
No, this civil war, if there was a civil war in the United States, it would be World War III on American soil, it would be Chinese bombers taking out Nashville, taking out fucking Atlanta, taking out every- God, it's so scary. | ||
It would be American bombers counteracting by taking out Sacramento. | ||
unidentified
|
No, it wouldn't be a traditional war. | |
Fuck this shit. | ||
No, exactly. | ||
Maybe it would be a war, like warfare, like you know, I don't- Every country on Earth wants the United States to fail right now, except the United States. | ||
If we declare stupid shit on ourselves, that is the end, that is game over. | ||
unidentified
|
All they have to do is turn off the internet. | |
Right, the first thing that happens is a grid strike. | ||
Industrial control systems shut down instantly. | ||
The moment anyone declares any kind of civil war, just insert regions, industrial control systems are shut down. | ||
Water reclamation is gone. | ||
Electricity is gone. | ||
In a civil war, Internet's gone instantly. | ||
unidentified
|
Well, who controls the internet? | |
Is it more people on the left or the right? | ||
That's what I'm saying. | ||
It's like- Probably the military. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
So I guess the president will control the internet grid and- There's multiple internets too. | ||
Like we have no voice. | ||
You lose your voice. | ||
That's not necessarily true. | ||
Texas has its own grid, electrical grid. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
And then there's Starlink, you know? | ||
And there's more than Starlink. | ||
There's tons of different satellite operators. | ||
And the question is where do they operate out of and which state is paying, you know, giving allegiance to which region. | ||
In the event of a civil war, it's likely that DC would immediately assert tremendous authority over any rebelling factions, but I don't think it's going to be two factions. | ||
Americans just never read about civil war, so they assume everything is like America. | ||
Oh, a bunch of states will join a bunch of states and then they'll go fight each other. | ||
No, it'll be more like Syria. | ||
12 factions will emerge, all controlling different elements of the United States military, and they'll be fighting. | ||
In fact, in the trailer for the movie Civil War, they mention 19 states seceded. | ||
They're the Western forces of California and Texas, as well as the Florida Alliance. | ||
So, Civil War is not two sides butting heads. | ||
unidentified
|
Right. | |
It's gonna be the U.S. | ||
military versus, insert 10 other factions, and Internet will be controlled partly by one group. | ||
You're gonna have nuclear silos controlled by one group in this area, but not in this area. | ||
It's going to be a mass fracturing. | ||
There may then come a point of unification between various factions, and then it could eventually become one-on-one, but that would redefine, it would only be possible if power could coalesce around communications and energy. | ||
Uh, someone in the chat mentioned as well, it'll be a lot like the 30 Years War. | ||
If anyone knows about the 30 Years War, that's what it's gonna, I think, will turn into. | ||
unidentified
|
Oh. | |
As well as, uh, What If All History has a good program on what it would look like, and if you know anything about the 30 Years War, you probably know what I'm saying. | ||
What is it? | ||
Explain it. | ||
Um, essentially, what Tim said, like a bunch of different factions, it's gonna be a bunch of people that are just kind of wandering the countryside, that have just kind of... | ||
I don't know about raiding and pillaging, but it's gonna be... Electricity goes down, communications go down. | ||
Communications get controlled by probably the US military faction. | ||
stuff like that, uh, ideologically. I don't know about raiding and pillaging, | ||
but it's going to be... Words, yeah. Electricity goes down, communications go down. | ||
Communications get controlled by probably the U.S. military faction. You have the, uh, Great Lakes | ||
region, and you're going to have people who are unified around a collective idea of preserving | ||
the Great Lakes, partly. | ||
It's their water source. | ||
We have to protect it. | ||
You will get some kind of unification between all of these states, and probably Ontario. | ||
You'll then have, like, Southern Coalition with Texas, and maybe New Mexico, and Oklahoma, and Kansas, or something. | ||
And so, when the U.S., when people lose confidence in the federal government, There are five cultural regions in the United States, which is, I believe it's the Western, there's West, South, Southeast, Northeast, and Midwest. | ||
Was that all of them? | ||
I don't know. | ||
These are likely going to be weak factions, and they're all going to be fighting a federal faction that uses components from each and every state. | ||
In fact, it's possible, if a civil war results in regional fracturing, the federal government just evaporates within a matter of six months. | ||
Because they can't maintain control outside of, you know, with these states operating the way they are. | ||
unidentified
|
I just wonder what happens to New York in all of this. | |
People will die like rather instantly within a few days. | ||
unidentified
|
In New York? | |
Absolutely. | ||
New York is going to be the worst. | ||
LA is the worst place. | ||
New York is second worst. | ||
unidentified
|
What about all like the conservatives? | |
Should we make a run for it now? | ||
No, it's just like video game fantasy shit, dude. | ||
Modern war, you don't know what it's going to be. | ||
And the weapons that would be used in a modern war, we've never seen before. | ||
It would be like the Great Reset. | ||
You do not want to fuck around with this shit. | ||
You are technically correct, but you're missing the point on civil war. | ||
We know exactly what weapons people in a civil war will fight with. | ||
But no war that the United States declares on itself would stop at the borders of the United States. | ||
The entire world would attack the country and try and take it. | ||
unidentified
|
Well, the borders are already open, so yeah, you're right. | |
Not immediately. | ||
And the amount of missiles, intercontinental ballistic missiles, that are pointed at the United States right now, ready to fire on a city, are like, outside the scope of comprehension. | ||
That's not a guarantee. | ||
I don't understand why you think an ICBM would fly to the United States. | ||
I think like 900 of them would. | ||
You don't want to fuck with that shit. | ||
If we lower our defenses, it's done. | ||
That's it. | ||
Yeah, I really don't see why China would be like, let's risk nuclear retaliation when the U.S. | ||
is destroying itself. | ||
If the United States was at war with itself, it would be too viscerally dangerous for the world to let it go like that. | ||
They would have to stop it as fast as they could. | ||
unidentified
|
Well, the different factions, as you said, would probably pick up allies in different countries. | |
But this is every civil war. | ||
Various international forces will fund various sites. | ||
It's just modern war is never what you think it's gonna be, man. | ||
You gotta watch The Great War on YouTube when they talk about it. | ||
unidentified
|
But will there be an ideological split? | |
Was that what the split called? | ||
Like all ideological splits? | ||
Like the five factions? | ||
No, it's resource-based. | ||
It would be like, look, if you go murder those children, we'll give you some water. | ||
If you don't, you're gonna die. | ||
Make your choice. | ||
I mean, kind of. | ||
That's a very weird, extreme, fantasy version of what it's like. | ||
It's the horror of it. | ||
Uh, J-Turbo, anything to add? | ||
unidentified
|
Uh, I know one thing I wanted to add, cause you guys are talking about the grid. | |
So with, well, currently I'm moving soon, but with where I live in North Carolina, I know we actually have like, I think two, three main electric power companies. | ||
And I remember at one point when I was living under one of them, my parents live, uh, were under another electrical company and I was literally five, 10 minutes away from where they lived. | ||
And they had an outage at one point that was lasted for a few days and I never lost power and I literally lived five minutes from them. | ||
So the electrical grid thing is very, very special because you can, you, you could not even realize that your neighbor's on a different grid. | ||
So you could look across the street and be like, why are their lights off? | ||
But your lights are on. | ||
And now with the smart grids, they could turn off your energy if you have certain political beliefs that they don't like. | ||
unidentified
|
Exactly. | |
Yeah well the well that grid that I was on it was very small it was actually a membership corp and it like it was they literally encompassed like three counties in North Carolina so like it was tiny it was like tiny so like it was very it was easy to shut down but easy to turn back on as well because of how small it was but yeah meanwhile my parents were under Duke Electrical which encompasses almost the whole state so like They're all over the place if there's an outage. | ||
Totally. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
That's yeah. | ||
But that was, yeah, that was that. | ||
And I also wanted to add, cause, uh, the tactical community pointed out the, uh, the gentleman in the rose colored glasses in the trailer with a red dot sight on his rifle. | ||
The only question is how is he aiming? | ||
Yeah. | ||
I just realized that. | ||
Yeah. | ||
unidentified
|
Worst, worst, worst prop selection since rust. | |
Right on, man. | ||
That's a pretty bad prop selection. | ||
Thanks for calling in. | ||
Thanks, man. | ||
Cheers, brother. | ||
Alrighty. | ||
PFC Ricky Bobby. | ||
Great name. | ||
How are you today? | ||
unidentified
|
Good, guys. | |
Wanted to wish you a Merry Christmas from the woke chocolate starfish of the Pacific Northwest. | ||
Eugene, Oregon. | ||
Oh, man. | ||
Merry Christmas. | ||
Merry Christmas, brother. | ||
What a shithole. | ||
unidentified
|
Just real quick, I wanted to let Luke know I registered a domain name for him. | |
It's bestunvaxedspermbroker.com. | ||
Nice. | ||
We're going to be in business, buddy. | ||
We're going to make some fucking money right now. | ||
unidentified
|
I was hoping you'd say that. | |
So my question is, I listened to X Space with Elon and Alex Jones the other day. | ||
I think it was when Andrew Tate was on, Elon was talking about global population and how Earth can easily handle 10X, I think is what he threw out. | ||
I hear conservative buddies talk about this all the time. | ||
You know, it seems to be a pretty popular conservative talking point. | ||
Every time I ask them if they're looking forward to more neighbors, You know, they want more neighbors. | ||
They want closer neighbors. | ||
They always say no. | ||
You know, anybody that lives out in the country like I do, you know, we live out here for a reason. | ||
So, anybody that's got property typically is looking for less neighbors, not more. | ||
And, you know, just about every consumer I ever asked has the same reply, which is, well, no, I don't. | ||
So, you know, what do you guys think? | ||
And, you know, if you're okay with 10x global population, are you looking forward to having, you know, 10 times the number of neighbors? | ||
That's 10 times more times that Ian could get laid, so yes, absolutely. | ||
I don't agree with that. | ||
I mean, just go on a road trip. | ||
Like, the overwhelming majority of the planet is empty. | ||
I think we can manage resources better and sustain substantially more life than they're claiming. | ||
unidentified
|
So... Well, building rivers would be cool. | |
No, I just mean like dumping shit in the water is stupid. | ||
Flushing fresh water down the toilet is stupid. | ||
The way we handle waste and production and the gluttony, I think people are very materialistic and we don't need to be. | ||
But I do think things can be done more efficiently. | ||
I think technology will prevail. | ||
I think recycling will improve. | ||
I think off-world technologies will improve. | ||
And, uh, if you've ever been on a road trip or looked at a satellite, this planet can sustain substantially more human beings. | ||
And I'm not talking about people living next to each other, because I understand you need farmland, too, but there are ways of doing that with vertical farming. | ||
I hope that with all these cool new technologies, a lot of them that I talk about, that people aren't like, yeah, yeah, yeah, up until it all ends, and then the regrowth of society has to like desperately use them to regrow. | ||
I hope that people take it upon themselves to adopt them before that happens, so it doesn't happen. | ||
I think we need to figure out a way to petrify every human on the planet using something like a Medusa weapon, and then once one of our most scientifically literate individuals frees themselves, we can then selectively choose who to bring back from petrification to rebuild the Earth in our image. | ||
Okay, Bill Gates. | ||
Genetic therapy. | ||
You were going to say something? | ||
unidentified
|
That sounds crazy. | |
Ricky Bobby. | ||
unidentified
|
I was going to say, it seems to me that history has proven that technology has just created lazier, fatter, more unhealthy human beings. | |
And more technology, better technology going forward is going to create easier lives to let more of us become even lazier and fatter. | ||
It's a cultural problem. | ||
Progression technology is always offering Tractors that do, you know, the job of a hundred men. | ||
And we always take that, you know. | ||
You've got, you know, a recliner that, you know, kicks back nice and easy. | ||
Now you got electric recliner. | ||
Now you got a massaging recliner. | ||
You know, everything, you know, not to mention our food supply, you know. | ||
Seeds are genetically modified to, you know, to be farmed easier. | ||
But now we're finding out those are unhealthier for us. | ||
I don't see any technology that's ever come along that's been good for humankind. | ||
Seems like, you know, grip strength, testosterone levels, everything was better, you know, in the past, if we want to live as biological human beings. | ||
What about the advent of steel? | ||
unidentified
|
I mean, steel's great, but, you know, and I'm a conservative. | |
I always have been. | ||
I'm not saying people shouldn't be having kids. | ||
I'm just saying, to me, you know, I hear guys like Elon Musk and as much as I love you, Ian, You talk about graphene, and that sounds cool. | ||
I mean, I love the idea of new tech. | ||
It just, you know, never seems to work out for humankind. | ||
I kind of agree with that. | ||
I just feel like the more technology, the worse. | ||
Like I was happier, I think, 20 years ago, before cell phones, when we used to have to do that thing where we had to like, you know, the letters, like you had to Yeah, press a button three times. | ||
Right! | ||
To me, that was like, okay, you have to do, you know, it was just, it was better. | ||
Beepers! | ||
I loved beepers, you know? | ||
I feel like with so much technology, our minds just become really clouded. | ||
It's too much. | ||
I feel like it's, it's, I do feel like we're ending, we're coming to an end. | ||
Like, I feel that way. | ||
I just want to give a shout out to Retarded Prude in the chat. | ||
Uh, first, recognizing you do claim to be retarded, so I can, I can, I can, uh, I, I now understand why you said what you said. | ||
He said, Tim honestly reminds me of my 13-year-old cousin with not admitting he can be wrong and yelling about it and the anime references. | ||
The first thing I'll, I'll say is, me saying I'm right about one thing and then also saying, like, probably 12 times today, I'm wrong a lot shows, uh, you're, you are retarded. | ||
And, uh, more importantly, you got that anime reference, you motherfucker! | ||
Don't call me out for anime references that you understand. | ||
I want to disagree with you because without technology, we wouldn't have the best unvaxed spermbroker.com. | ||
Is that the website? | ||
unidentified
|
How does the technology work, though? | |
What if someone says they're unvaxed and they sell that for $7,000? | ||
They're actually vaxed. | ||
Could you test it? | ||
Probably, yeah. | ||
unidentified
|
Is there a test kit to make sure? | |
You should sell test kits for women to test the sperm. | ||
The person who's vaccinated has myocarditis. | ||
I think the issue... Did I get the website right? | ||
unidentified
|
The issue with making... TheBestUnvaxedSpermBroker.com, is that it? | |
Yeah, I was just joking. | ||
You didn't buy it? | ||
I'm looking for this website right now. | ||
I'm looking for this website. | ||
A lot of people are looking for it. | ||
I think the problem with tech that you're talking about, how it fucks people up and messes them up, that's more of a self-control issue. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, but it's like force-feeding someone fentanyl on the net saying they can't be addicted. | |
You just can't not be addicted to technology now. | ||
You can't. | ||
Probably everyone in this room is. | ||
Everybody is. | ||
We all are. | ||
Well, it's like, in order to be a part of society, you're wired in. | ||
Yeah, it'd be like, we're not going to stop using shovels, for instance. | ||
We have gone substantially over time, and we do have to go, because we have the song launch coming up in 50 minutes, so I've got to get going. | ||
This is a good conversation. | ||
Yeah. | ||
Private First Class, Reggie Bubby. | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, one more thing. | |
I was hoping Phil Labonte would be there tonight. | ||
I have the insurrection flag from January 6th. | ||
The giant flag that was crowd surfing during Trump's speech. | ||
You know many people went to jail for holding that stupid sign? | ||
Is it the one with the metal thing? | ||
The one that had the metal around it? | ||
The flag? | ||
There was a flag that was being carried that was like on a metal kind of like thing that so that people could carry it. | ||
It was on poles. | ||
We got a rep! | ||
unidentified
|
Yeah, they were their own poles. | |
The flag was just the flag itself. | ||
It was just crowd surfing over the crowd during Trump's speech. | ||
It did get taken to the Capitol building and surfed there for a while. | ||
And then, you know, when things got crazy, it got drug up onto the scaffolding there. | ||
Everybody thinks it was the side of the Capitol building, but it was the scaffolding that was hung off of. | ||
Anyways, that flag has been going around the country, you know, from Trump speeches to the Trucker Convoy, college football games, country music festivals. | ||
We've been hoping to get it in the hands of, you know, some rock stars like Phil or John Rich, Oliver Anthony, Jason Aldean. | ||
Hit him up on Twitter. | ||
What's that? | ||
Tweet at him. | ||
Tweet at Phil. | ||
unidentified
|
At Phil? | |
Yeah. | ||
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
That's your best bet. | ||
unidentified
|
Okay, and then it's going down to AmFest. | |
Was wondering if you guys might be able to facilitate it getting into John Rich's hand. | ||
I know he's performing there. | ||
I cannot. | ||
Yeah. | ||
That's a lot of moving parts, man. | ||
Yeah. | ||
And we're only there for a couple hours. | ||
They're literally getting us a jet, a private jet, to fly in and fly out immediately. | ||
Because they were like, hey, do you want to do your show here? | ||
I was like, no, it's too expensive. | ||
And they were like, OK, well, what if we got you a jet and we flew you in and flew you out? | ||
I was like, OK, I guess. | ||
Yeah. | ||
It's literally there and back, man. | ||
Yep. | ||
But I appreciate it, man. | ||
We got to go. | ||
I got to get ready for this press release and this stuff, because the song's coming out at midnight! | ||
And the Daily Wire is going ham on this one. | ||
But thanks for calling in, man. | ||
unidentified
|
Thanks, guys. | |
See you later, mate. | ||
Alright, Cara, thanks for hanging out. | ||
unidentified
|
Thank you so much. | |
It was great. | ||
I had a good time. | ||
It's been a blast. | ||
And for everybody who's a member, thank you all so much for your support. | ||
Buy the song if you wanna help us out. | ||
I think with The Daily Wire and us teaming up, we're gonna have a big impact. | ||
It's- I don't know how much I should say about like their internals, but I was just like, | ||
I'm breaking the numbers down to them and I'm like, look, if we sell like 10,000, we'll hit billboard charts as like, | ||
you know, an alternative or something. | ||
If we sell 50,000, we'll probably be on the hot 100. If we sell 500,000, | ||
Jeremy Boring and Michael Knowles will have a gold record in their office. | ||
And they're just like, that must happen. | ||
And I'm like, well, you know, good luck. | ||
I mean, that's, that's pie in the sky one day, I hope. | ||
